*marinalia lifts her top slightly just showing stomach and bandages*

I wish about healing up that easily... *laughs gentley as that's not painful*
Managed to end up on the pointy end of a knife.. I prefer to be on the other but cannot change it.

*marinalia notices thr jarring look but not mentions it* *of merg*
*coffee make kinda made tea and hot choc too but that's beside the point... Magic *

*waves to Dira*
Hey.. Morning.

*Mergoux looks at Maril*
Mergoux: Hmph, I've had worse.


*Dria smiles and waves then makes her self some french toast and offers some to Mergoux who refuses rather bluntly*

*Leo heads back towards the room after finishing eating the body she found*

*Her shirt only has a little bit of blood on it*

*Remus looks up at Dria leaving and toddles off into the forest to nab a bite to eat*

*Arya finally finishes cooking the bacon then dumps it on a plate*
*digs into it with gusto*

*marilania looks over at merg *
.aye.. Maybe but id rather not repeat it too quick... I managed to give Maria and victor a good scare.

Plus that med bay is rather boring too...
*shrugs sipping her hot chockat*

*looks at teleport bracelet *
Hmmm.. Ships out of orbit... Must be a routine engine run...

..

*fluffy heads out marlas tank smelling bacon and has a rather strong love of bacon*

*looks round kitchen for smell*

*Jake walks into the kitchen, and nods to everyone present.*
Jake: Hello everyone.
*He starts making a sandwich.*

---
*Two drops ships come out of the COS, and touch down next to the escape craft.*
*Brutes then pour out of the drops ships, and inspect the craft.*
*Gunfire soon follows.*

*Dria waves happily to Jake*
Dria: Morning!

*Mergoux ignores Jake and drinks her coffee before standing, stretching and walking out towards her room*

*marinalia finshes drink and yawns slightly less steadily*

Goodnight... Think pushed it ernough for today.
And Dira, tell Morgan hello if you see him.. He seems to be hiding....

*waves and smiles before going to bed*
*goes to room in the room, and goes to bed with a already asleep victor*

...

*Maria working in office on sciencey stuff *

*space wolves.... Space wolves head back to hall and work on readying there mission *

...

*Marla goes to bed*

...
*fluffy goes back to marlas repressor*

*Dria waves to Maril*
Dria: Goodnight!


*Several bandits fall to the ground dead and the others back up at a sharp command from the leader*
Leader: You filthy little worm... I'll kill you myself! You stand before Winston the Wolflord! Your end is here!
*The man starts to change, fur sprouting all over his body as he grows to over 7 feet tall. His fingernails turn into claws and his head become that of a snarling coal black wolf*
*He roars at Aerin and attacks savagely with a incredibly powerful overhand, strong enough to break a average sword blade*

*Aerin sidesteps the blow and Aards Winston*
*uses the distraction to switch to his silver sword, and growls*
A: Didn't think you'd get any uglier.

*Zoey goes to sleep in her armor at the bottom of the pool.*

---

Jake: Goodnight Maril.
*Jake nods to Dria.*
Jake: Morning, how have you been Dria?
*Keeps making sandwich.*

---
*Gunfire still going on at the crash site.*

*Dria smiles*
Dria: Good! Very good! How about you?
*Eating french toast at the table*


*Mergoux goes to the gym to work with the training dummies


*The Wolflord staggers back as the men jeer at Aerin*
Winston: You die this day Witcher!
*He barks and his Warg roars and attacks from the left as he attacks from the right*

*Aerin dive rolls forwards to dodge the hits and quickly casts Quen (energy shield)*
A: Your pet dies first.
*Springs at the Warg and slashes at the side of its neck*

*The Warg Howls in pain and Winston howls in rage*
*The Warg swipes weakly, badly wounded but still able to fight as the men jeer and cheer*

*Winston stabs at Aerin's back with his sword but fails cause Quen, then starts bashing with sword and fist*

*Quen shatters, sending energy flying in every direction*
*Aerin pivots to the side and stabs his silver sword right behind the warg's shoulder, where its heart and lungs should be*
*immediately rips the blade outta the Warg and backsteps, cause the Quen breaking wouldn't keep Winston busy for long at all*
A: Never should have crossed a Cat.

*Jake smiles back.*
Jake: I have been well.
*He eats half the sandwich, and saves the other half for Denny.*
Jake: Any random attacks recently?

---
*Gunfire stops at the crash site.*

*Scatty starts walking back, looking basically broken*


*Winston howls in pain at the energy shards then roars at seeing his mount slain*
Winston: I EAT CATS!
*Attacks again*


*Dria sighs and nods*
Dria: Yeah... the Kroot camp was attacked and destroyed... Morgan said he saw Kara there and she seemed... off.
*Sighs, still holding onto a shard of hope that both Kara and Boran are okay*

*Aerin fights defensively, feigning counterattacks as he moves backwards*
*gets caught in the left shoulder by a swipe, and curses as he staggers*
A: Fething mutt.

*The wolflord takes advantage of the stagger to press the attack even harder, striking in powerful, brutal attacks*

*Leo hears the gunfire on her way back to the room but chooses to avoid it, worried that if she gets involved in a fight she might lose herself*

*She gets to the room and heads towards one of the holes left by the Ork Wagon*

*Scatty emerges from the tree line, looking utterly broken with her hands still raw, bleeding and covered in earth and her eyes red rimmed from crying*


*

*A armored figure jumps out of the crater and lands a few meters from the site.*
*He then takes a knee as he does this purple energy bleeds off him for a moment.*
*After a few seconds it stops, and he gradually stands up.*
*Looks around, sees the room, and starts walking towards it.*

*Leo hears Scatty come out of the treeline behind her and turns*

*Looks shocked to see Scatty in such a state and hurries over*

*Aerin had regained his posture and goes back to dodging*
*growls and casts Axii (stun/mind trick) on Winston before smirking*
A: Think I'll take a leg first.
*whirls at Winston and hits him with the strength to sever his leg from his hip*

*Winston staggers over one leg as the remaining bandits stare in shock*
*The wolf grits his teeth, stunned but in extreme pain as he bleeds*


*Scatty doesn't seem to notice Leo and just continues towards the room, head down*


*Dria goes to the workshop to talk with Morgan*

*Leo goes to put a hand on Scatty's shoulder*

Leo: Scatty? What's wrong? What's happened?

*Tala sighed, and watched Brunor go*
*Gets some new sheets, and starts changing the bed*

~

*The figure nodded, then cleared out of the kitchen cause too many people*
*Inspected Merg for a bit, mostly looking at her helmet, then left the kitchen properly*
*Inspects the room for things she could nab*

*Scatty jumps as she's touched and looks at Leo, tears trickling down her face*
Scatty: A-A-Aoife...


*Cal walks to the lounge and starts writing in a large Medical Journal*

*Aerin proceeds to slash Winston's remaining hamstring, and points the silver sword at his gut after he would proceed to fall to the ground*
A: You're lucky I want you alive. Try anything, and I will stick you into the dirt.
*casts Igni on Winston's legs to cauterize the wounds so he doesn't bleed to death*

*Leo looks concerned*

Leo: What happened to Aiofe?

*Leo looks around to see if Aiofe was following Scatty*

*Winston roars in pain and the though a few of the remaining bandits try to attack Aerin while he's distracted, most are either mounting their horses and riding off or frozen in place, shocked at their lords defeat*


*Scatty shakes her head silently*

*Leo quickly pulls Scatty into a hug*

Leo: I... I'm so sorry...

*Leo holds Scatty tight*

*Her eyes begin to water*

*Figure walks up to the door, and draws his Carnifex-5. Also has a scanner out on his wrist scanning the room.*
*He opens the main door to the room, pistol at the ready.*

---
*Brunor goes into the bathroom for a long time, for obvious reasons.*
*Finally comes, out still looking ashamed.*
Brunor: Sorry about earlier... it was uncalled for... I should know better.

*Arya walks out into the main room munching on some toast*
*not really paying attention so she doesn't see the figure*

*Aerin thrusts his silver blade into Winston's gut before he dives away*
A: Run now, I'll catch you later.
*dodges a swing from the nearest bandit and disarms him in a blur of movements*

*The bandits start to flee in ernest as the Wolflord howls after them for aide*
*His eyes go wide at the silver and he shudders and falls back*


*Scatty breaks down completely, weeping into Leo's shoulder*

*Tala shakes her head, and hugs Brunor*
It's... Okay... Just don't do it again... Bad things can happen...

~

*The figure just walks around, and her left hand faintly glows purple while its in a fist*
*Opens her fist, and literally turns to smoke, and walks around invisibly*

*Aerin hurls the sword into a fleeing bandit's back and sighs*
A: You're not long for this world, humans.
*walks over to Winston and twists the blade*
A: Ready to talk? No one is going to help you.

*Leo gently escorts Scatty into the room*

*Silent tears roll down Leo's cheeks*

*Winston looks up at Aerin and spits at him defiantly*


*Cal sits calmly in the lounge*


*Mergoux's working out in the gym*


*Morgan and Dria are talking in the workshop*


*Gharn comes back from his run, goes to the kitchen and chugs water from the sink*


*Scatty goes with Leo, just allowing herself to be led*

*Armored figure frowns at the calm room around him, and keeps scanning the room.*
Figure: Sam... what the feth am I looking at.
*Keeps his pistol out.*

---
*Brunor slowly nods, and returns the hug.*
Brunor: Okay... I just... never mind.
*He manages a weak smile.*
Brunor: You hungry?

*Arya continues to munch on some toast in the main room*
*glances at the newcomer once then goes back to her toast*

*Leo leads Scatty into the lounge looking for someone to help her with Scatty*

*Leo looks at Cal as she enters the lounge*

*Cal looks up and nearly drops his book*
Cal: Holy- What happened?
*Lifts of the couch with a woosh and speeds over to them both*
*Looks shocked to see Scatty like this and doesn't notice the newcomer*

*Leo rubs the tears from her eyes*

Leo: It's Aiofe... She's... Not with us anymore...

*Aerin doesn't flinch from the spit and just sighs*
A: I can Axii you again, make you talk. But that takes away the point.
*draws his crossbow and fires it into Winston's shoulder*
A: Where's your lair? How many are there of your gang?

*Figure steps out of the way of Leo and Scatty.*
*Watches the trio talk, silently scanning everything around him.*
*Still has his pistol out.*

*Cal stares at Leo with a stunned expression*
Cal: No...
*Puts a arm around Scatty*
Cal: Oh Scatty...
*Scatty simply keeps weeping*


*The Wolflord chuckles weakly*
Winston: More than you could hope to battle against...

*Leo lets Cal take Scatty then stands there looking at the pair*

*Leo has no clue on how to help and just ends up hugging Scatty*

*She flinches as she remember something but remains in the hug*

*Aerin sighs and puts his crossbow away*
A: Well, let's see how much you enjoy this then.
*pulls out a vial containing a serum similar to the Trial of the Grasses, but it's not identical, and proceeds to slowly pour it onto Winston's stomach wound*
A: When you're ready to talk, I'll stop.

*Tala nods, and lets go of the hug*
Yes please... I will... Put on clothing.
*Grabs something to wear, and starts doing so*

~

*The figure appears behind the new figure, and tilts her head*
Figure: Nice armour.

*Wolflord howls in pain and writhes in agony*
Wolflord: NEVER!


*Scatty holds onto both Leo and Cal tightly*
*Tears slip down Cal's face as he holds her and looks at Leo*
Cal: What.. what do you know?

*Arya glances again at the new figure and sighs*
Unless you're about to shoot one of us could you put that thing away? Are you expecting someone to come out of the trash can and stab you?

*Figure turns around, and frowns at the other figure.*
AF: Well aren't you sneaky.
*He has SAM scan the figure.*
AF: Thanks.. your armor is nice as well.

*AF ignores Arya, cause she shouldn't know what a gun is, cause she is from DND.*
---
*Brunor nods, and looks away as Tala gets dressed.*
Brunor: I... figure we go hunt or something.
*Grinds his teeth at the awkwardness.*
Brunor: Whatever you want to do...

*Aerin occasionally pauses in his pouring to watch Winston writhe*
A: Got any idea where you're friends would be going? My guess is right to their lair to lie low. To hide from the Witcher. Sound about right?
*goes back to pouring the vial, and casts Yrden to slow down the effects*

*Leo separates from the hug and wipes her eyes*

Leo: Nothing... I just found out myself...

*Leo twitches and clenches her fists*

Leo: Can you please look after Scatty... There is something I need to do...

OOC: Nevermind

*The Wolflord finally relents, screaming for no more*
Winston: Please... please no more...


*Cal nods*
Cal: Of course... If you can, try and find what happened, I'm not going to press her for details, not now.
*Wipes his eyes and starts leading Scatty to Huitz's room*

*Tala nods and finishes getting dressed*
Sounds fine...
*Stands around awkwardly cause she don't wanna fry Brunor accidentally*

~

*The figure tilts her head at the gun*
Figure: I am very sneaky.
*Figures everything he is wearing is valuable, so she makes a mental note of that*

*Leo watches Cal leave with Scatty and heads off looking for Jake*

Leo: (I have to fix this...)

*Aerin nods and puts the vial away*
A: Good. Now, I want specifics. If I think you're lying, or if you try and be an ass, the vial comes back out. Now answer my questions. Where's your lair? How many are there of you? How many of you are werewolves, or some other monster?

*Brunor grabs Tala's hand, and starts leading her out towards the exit.*
Brunor: We'll... work around this... it's okay...
*Keeps walking towards the exit.*

---
*Af nods in agreement, and silently watches the sneaky figure.*
Af: What's your name?
*Gun slides, and clicks into a small box which the AF maglocks to his leg.*

*And no Wk. This is totally different universe even to the room. Your character should see a guy holding a box with a trigger. Not a weapon.*

---
*Jake still eating in the kitchen lol.*

*Leo looks around until she goes into the Kitchen and spots Jake*

*Leo tenses when she sees him but eventually forces herself to approach him*

Leo: J-Jake... We need to talk...

*The wolflord glares in hatred but speaks*
Winston: My lair is 5 miles South East. I command tenscore men and a half-score of wolves and a score of Doglords

*Tala nods, but doesn't seem any more hopeful*
I hope so... I don't want to keep hurting you...

~

*The figure tilts her head and stares at the maglocked pistol*
Figure: ...You have some weird magic. And my name is confidential.

*Cal takes Scatty to her grandfather and sits outside his room, head in hands*


*Morgan keeps doing stuff in the workshop but Dria comes out smiling cheerily and goes to the lounge*


*Gharn eats some meat in the kitchen*

*Armored figure frowns at Figure.*
AF: Magic? Er... sure...
*He crosses his arms, and leans against a wall.*
AF: What do I call you then?

---
*Brunor turns to Tala, and gently hugs her.*
Brunor: Tala... I want this. If that means I can't touch you... well I'll just get over that.
*He nuzzles her slightly.*
Brunor: I don't care if you hurt me...

---
*Jake smiles, then frowns at Leo.*
Jake: What's wrong Leo?
*Looks concerned for her.*
Jake: Are you okay?

*Leo's face sinks*

Leo: I am fine... Just please come with me.

*Leo tries leading Jake back to her room*

*Jake keeps his frown.*
Jake: Okay.. lead the way.
*Follows after Leo.*

*After Leo leads Jake into her room and closes the door she sits Jake down on her bed*

Leo: Jake... I know what has happened to Roland, Why he is missing... When I was still Flagg's puppet he made me... Get rid of Roland.

*Leo takes a step back and looks Jake in the eyes*

Leo: I threw him into some kind of portal... I don't know where it took him. But I am going to go and find him... I should have told you this a long time ago... I'm sorry.

*Jake stares at Leo with shock.*
Jake: You've known... this whole time?
*A whirlpool of emotions run across Jake's face, not knowing what to say.*
Jake: I warned you... we both did... you never listened to me or him.
*Jake's hands shake, and he grits his teeth to reign in his emotions.*

*Tala hugs Brunor back tightly, and nods*
I want it too... But I can't... Please you... Or anything, to be honest...

~

*The figure shrugs*
Figure: You don't call me anything.
*Tilts her head, and disappears again*
*Low-key moves right up to AF and dispelling the maglock of his gun*
*Doesn't work, and nothing really happens to make it noticeable*
*Figure frowns, then walks away to go steal some other stuff*

*Mergoux walks out to the main room with her bag and pulls a book from it before starting to read*


*Gharn hops on a sofa and sits with Dria, happy to just sit and read while she draws*

*Armored figure frowns at the figure disappearing.*
AF: Well okay then...
*Walks over to the couches, and frowns.*
AF: Any of you guys have names?

---
*Brunor tightens the hug as well, and kisses Tala.*
Brunor: You already please me...
*He nods to her, and looks determined.*
Brunor: We'll find out a way... I'll study into it more, and look at the strange blue flecks that cause your... energy spikes. Okay?

*Mergoux looks over at AF. warily examining his armor before answering shortly*
Mergoux: Mergoux.
*Goes back to her book*


*Dria is a bit more polite and smiles*
Dria: Don't mind her, I'm Dria the Artisan, who are you?
*Gharn nods to AF once*
Gharn: Gharn Werefang

David: Names David...
*Looks at Mergoux, and frowns under his helm.*
David: Very strange name, never mind moving past that. I don't suppose any of you know about the giant spaceship outside?

*Mergoux frowns*


*Dria looks surprised*
Dria:... The what?

David: Don't worry about it. I'm sure it's nothing.
*Looks around the room for a moment.*
David: What planet is this?

*Tala nods, and hugs*
Fulgurbugs. They carry the thing I discharge. I can make it myself, but they amplify it to high levels.

~

*Figure walks around invisible, looking for things to swipe*
*Gets to some locked door, and pulls a key, nothing like the keyhole/scanner for the door*
*Holds it to the scanner/keyhole, and it opens despite it not fitting*
Figure: (Works even here. Funny.)

*Dria shrugs*
Dria: I don't know.
*Gharn shakes his head and Mergoux shrugs too*


*Morgan comes from the workshop and heads towards the kitchen*

*Marla heads out in armour as needs to recharge augments*

Hey. *looks round at nee figure *
Hello... Professor Marla. What brought you to our home...

Hey, Dira, Gharn, Morgan coming in for a late time mention.

*David sighs.*
David: We are in the Milky way galaxy right?
*Starts screwing around with a orange holographic computer floating above his wrist.*

---
Brunor: Well, I don't to take something away that gives you strength.. Maybe I can find a way to "calm" the bugs down for a bit... give us time to be together.
*He continues walking while still holding the hug.*
Brunor: I'll think on it later... for now lets get you some food.

*Dria shrugs again because she's the only one who knows what that even is*
Dria: I'm not sure, I don't know, you could ask my dad, he might know. Thoth would for sure! He's in the library
*Points to the library*

*marla*

That's a old Terran name for this galaxy.
Its been many thousands of years since that name was used so any star map might be somewhat inaccurate from that era.

Ypus need someone like Dira mentioned if looking to locate self though.
We should have a up-to-date map on star systems positions.

*Leo nods*

Leo: I know, I messed up. But I am trying to fix it now. I... I'm an idiot, I'm a monster, I'm a villain. But now all that matters is getting Roland back.

*Tala nods, and goes along*
Okay... We'll see what we can do...
*Looks for food*

~

*The figure sneaks in, and starts taking whatever looks valuable in the room*
*Stashes the key in a concealed pocket on her arse underneath her cloak, and goes back to looting silently*

*Mergoux goes to her room*


*Black Hawk gets up and goes to the bar*


*Dria waves to Maria*
Dria: Morning!

*Marla smiles*
Hey Dira.

Morning.
Miss anything lately. I was catching up on reading and ptobbly missed half a dozen events!
You seem to know what's going on.

*victor waves and heads straight to kitchen and starts cooking up some breakfast for them both*

*Figure finishes looting the room, then looks around it*
Figure: Well... This'll be suspicious if someone sees things missing...
*Aims her hand upwards, and lights the ceiling on fire*
*Makes the fire move around the room, then goes invisible again, and walks out of it while it starts burning from the inside*

*Dria shakes her head*
Dria: I don't think you missed anything


*Sprinklers stop the fire from spreading outside the bedroom the figure looted so that the place don't burn down*

*marla*

Thanks. You know how fast the room moves.

*notices victor*
Now I want breakfast in bed ... *laughs*
No milo....

*stretches in armour*
Was getting a little rusty in armour...

I can tell ya this much, good news. We found where the people who hurt marlin are... Getting them is alot harder!

...

*victor carries on cooking up some food in the kitchen and making a pot of coffee*

*Figure looks immensely perplexed by the sprinklers*
*Gets wet from them, which basically makes her invisibility work pretty badly*
*Doesn't notice, and goes back to sneaking*

*Gharn eventually stretches, hugs Dria and goes to bed*


*Dria sits up for a bit longer before going to bed*


*Cal goes to Morri and informs her, then sits with her as they both grieve*


*Scatty is grieving with her grampa Huitz*


*Morgan heads to bed after making sure everything in the workshop is in place by which point he's exhausted and collapses in bed, snoring loudly*

*Marla waves em off and chats with Victor for abit in kitchen before he leaves and takes a pair of trays to there room and enjoy breakfast in bed*

*Marla relaxes, makes sefl a mug of tea watching the room*
*watches room and leans against wall sipping her tea*

...

*pair of space wolves trek out hunting for lunch*

*Aerin nods*
A: See, what I want to do is to leave you like this. But I can't trust that you won't be healing from this, in time.
*Aerin then rips his silver sword out of Winston, and then does an overhead slash to decapitate the wolflord*

*Figure sneaks into another room, which is basically empty of everything valuable but a bed*
Figure: This should do.
*Empties her pockets of whatever she swiped in the burnt room, and places the items in a cupboard*
*Finally notices that her armour is drenched, and strips out of it*
Figure: This'll take a while to dry. Ugh.
*Throws it over the back of a chair so it dries faster, and lies down on the bed while holding the key*
Figure: I'll give you back eventually...
*Looks at the door, then frowns*
*Casts a quick spell on the ground, and lies back down*
*Remembers she hasn't slept for nine days*
*Passes out*

*David wanders around the room.*
*Keeps fiddling with his holographic computer.*

---
*Brunor nods, and follows Tala.*
Brunor: We'll find a way...
*Helps looks for food.*

---
*Jake shakes his head.*
Jake: Now you wanna save my father? After months sense he vanished?! ... No Leo... You're going to tell me everything you know... Then you're going to prison, and I will discuss with the room what will be done with you.
*Stands up, and looks at Leo coldly.*
Jake: Be happy I am more merciful then my father...

*Tala looks, finds, kills and eats food with Brunor cause I'ma sleep soon*

~

*Figure is completely out of it, and sleeps on the bed naked*
*She damn fine with real dark grey skin, not that anybody could tell, cause she in a room with no windows and a door that is booby-trapped to kill almost anything with ease*
*Sleep is plagued with nightmares of a dying city*

*Leo looks up at Jake and her eye changes*

*She is obviously not happy but nods and starts explaining in detail what Flagg had her do*

Leo: And that is everything I know... Good luck.

*Leo is not a fan of the idea of being thrown into a cell again, and knowing she will probably get very hungry only heightens this feeling*

*Davd walks outside, and stares at the stars for some time.*

---
*Brunor silently stands watch over Tala.*
*Rubs her back, and studies the Fulgurbugs.*

---
Jake: You... betrayed his trust... and sent him to some void...
*Jake stands in silence, then draws his magnum, and points to the door.*
Jake: Get up, you're going to your fething cell.
*He look slightly pained as he does this.*

*Leo looks at Jake and her eye twitches*

*She hesitantly opens her door and walks out into the main room*

*Marla stood in main room wearing armour just finishing a cup of tea leaning against a wall*

Hey Leo... You alright...
*somthibf looks off as Leo not normally probbly so hesitant etc*

*Leo pauses and quickly looks back at Jake*

*Mouths "Put the gun away" then looks back at Marla*

Leo: I'm f-fine. Just fixing up some problems. I-is all.

*Leo rubs her black and red eye in hoping Marla didn't notice*

*Marla notices somthibf but lwo hides it so kinda middles*
Umm if its... Diet related... We can try to make a apropoate substitute ...

We can help you manage that particular.. Problem.

*veils it as Jake about and not sure he knows*

*David walks back into the room, and heads towards the kitchen.*
*Scans appliances in the kitchen.*

----

*Jake shakes his head at Leo, his cold eyes never blink.*
Jake: No. Marla step aside, Leo is going to her cell to await execution. She betrayed my father, and kept it secret for weeks.
*Eyes briefly flash to Marla.*
Jake: Do not stand in the way of this, this is none of your concern.

*Arya steps out from her room and quietly walks towards the kitchen to make herself breakfast*

*Leo growls but steps out of Jake's way and turns to the prison block*

Leo: So execution is a mercy now is it?...

*Marla eyes flash a cold bright ice blue and sustain it*

No Jake... She lives here. She has rights...
Now a cell might be appropriate however execution will be decided by someone less emotionally involved.

This is a decision to be taken by those older and wiser than you.
Your barely older than my neice...

Someone else will decide this Jake and if such sanction is warranted.

*David looks over at Arya, and stops scanning stuff.*
David: Er.. Hello.

---

*Jake shakes his head.*
Jake: She is a traitor, aiding a being who wants us all dead. You will not stand in the way of this. She lost her rights when she betrayed one of my Ka-tet.
*He then turns to Leo.*
Jake: You're right... I am not the one who will decide if you're are executed or not. That will be my fathers choice.
*Grits his teeth with utter rage.*
Jake: If... I... can find him.

*Leo waits to be taken to a cell and tries to remain calm*

*She's doing pretty well managing to stop her kagune from coming out*

*Arya smiles kindly at David*
Hi! You must be new here, I'm Arya.
*talks happily with David for a few more minutes before apologizing and turning back to focus on the food she's making*

OOC:
Back in an hour and a half. Class starting

*marla*
And until that point she shall not be abused and or executed by you or your Spartan girlfriend.

Clear ernough for ya Jake.
And what. Ya gonna shoot me for ensuring someone gets a fair judgement when your deciding if they live or die...

*turns to leo*
Il make sure you get appropriate substitute food as required....

David: Names David..
*Conversation is a little one sided with Arya cause David keeps his cards close to his chest.*
*Goes back to scanning stuff, and lets Arya attend to her food.*

---

*Jake swerves on Marla.*
Jake: Marla... I am showing so much restraint right now, it is literally beyond your comprehension. Imagine your father being betrayed by your alleged "friend," and thrown into a dimension of utter torment. On top of that, my father and I both warned Leo about Flagg, and she ignored us and simply obeyed the monsters orders!
*And he gets even angrier.*
Jake: And I am not some merc, or assassin! I am a fething gunslinger! WE HAVE FETHING HONOR! I have yet to touch, let alone really threaten Leo! I have told her facts, and what will happen from consequences of her actions!
*Takes a few deep breaths.*
Jake: You.. don't understand... you couldn't possibly understand how... endangered we all are.. Roland being stuck in some fethed up dimension means the dark tower is unprotected, in other words the whole universe can fething DIE! So Marla, why don't you go worry about Leo getting dinner, while I worry about reality exploding into pieces.
*Jake calms down, then turns to Leo, and motions for her to enter the cell.*

*Leo walks into the cell and sits down*

*She looks at the floor and says nothing*

*She breaths in and out keeping her cool*

*marla*

Fine Jake...

Oh and since when did I threaten you...
I never even reached for a weapon.
*turns to leave and heads back to her repressor*

*goes inside slightly annoyed*

*David frowns at the yelling, but keeps scanning.*

---
*Jake sighs, and leans against the wall next to Leo's cell.*
Jake: You... brought this on yourself Leo...
*Lights up a cigarette, and sits there for a time.*

*Arya finishes cooking her breakfast and sits down at a table in the kitchen to eat it*
*the Ork finally emerges from the Looted Wagon and stares at the TV for a minute before starting to disassemble it*
*Milo starts heading back to the Room after some failed attempts to recruit more soldiers for the PDF*

*Leo remains seated as her Kagune erupts from her back*

*She is trying very hard to stay silent*

*Her Kagune whips around erratically as she tries to stay calm*

*David keeps walking around, and scanning stuff.*
David: Hmmm...
*Sees the ork, and scans him before scanning his wagon.*

---
*Jake frowns at the commotion coming from Leo's cell, and looks inside. His magnum instantly flashes it's way to his hand.*
Jake: What the feth.. Leo what is this?
*He grits his teeth.*
Jake: Is this Flagg's work?

*scanning the Ork reveals that Orks are actually made out of fungus at the base level*
*scanning the Looted Wagon reveals that the dang thing shouldn't be capable of running or working right, but somehow it is*
*the Ork begins reassembling the TV into a different form*
*Arya finishes her meal and washes the plate in the sink before walking out into the main room where she begins playing the flute*

*Marla heads out and flops onto a groaning sofa as in full armour*

*notices tv in bits*
(urgh.... Wanted to watch somthibf)
*slightly relaxed by music and sighs*

*The Ork has assembled the former TV into a gun*
Ork: Now dat's a dead shiny shoota!

*Arya continues playing the flute softly*
*Milo pulls a Salamander into the garage and sighs heavily before walking to the bar for a bite to eat*

*Marla hears thr engine, and looks out the window*

*gets up.as no tv to watch, checks the door and then heads to bar in armour*

*sneaks up behind milo*
Hello sir... Mind buying a lady a white wine and a pizza...

...

*two space wolves haul back in a pair of rather large dear, a few brace of rabits and a flamingo and start butchering them in the kitchen*

*Gharn gets up and goes for a run*


*Scatty walks silently to the kitchen, accompanied by her Grandfather. Both look sorrowful as Huitz starts making them both something to eat*
*Scatty sits at the table silently, head in her hands*


*Morgan gets up and sits in the main room looking over some blueprints*


*Mergoux goes to the gym*

*space wolves nod chopping large steaks and cuts of meet off the animals in the kitchen*

*space wolf*
Give us a ask if you want a select cut.

...

*Marla remains in bar*

...

*marilania walks out slightly more steady then before. *
Hey... Afternoon... *looks over to kitchen seeing scatty and space wolves mostly as wel as huitz*

I miss somthibf?

*Leo's kagune stops and she looks up at Jake and simply shakes her head*

*Her wings shift into their crystal form and slowly aim at Jake*

*Leo's head twitches and they slowly shift back to their black and red fire form*

*Tala finishes eating, and stretches*
That... Was nice...
*There ain't actually that many fulgurbugs around Tala while she eats or does non-exciting things*

~

*Denny wakes up, and walks out of her room in her bodysuit*
*Goes to get something to drink*

~

*Figure gonna be passed out for a while*

*Scatty doesn't look at Maril and Huitz's shoulders slump even more as she speaks to him*
Huitz:...Aoife- *tries not to choke up* Aoife is dead...
*The burly Elder continues trying to distract himself with making food but stops and leans on the counter, holding back tears*

*Jake watches Leo's Kagune.*
Jake: Then what is this about?
*Smokes his cigarette, and watches Leo closely.*

---

*Brunor nods.*
Brunor: Glad you are full.
*Looks around the forest for any threats, and still feels a bit naked without silver sword.*

*Milo hugs Marla*
Of course. What do you want on it?

Leo: I don't know myself. All I know is that I'm a monster.

*Leo half laughs half cries and her kagune goes back to thrashing around as she struggles to maintain her sanity*

*Marla smiles at hug and returns gentley as in full armour minus helmet"

Pepperoni... If I ever order pineapple, just shoot me!.
How was the trip?

Oh.. And I better tell you ... Marilania kinda got hurt...
Assassin... Victor got her away n safe, and suspect is on way to Mars as we speak...

...

*marilania*
Oh... God... Sorry that sounded so.. So bad way ....of...
So sorry...

*kinda has no idea what to do so awkardly makes a mug of tea*

...

*space wolves carry on butchering meat nearly finished ignoring people*

*David keeps walking around the main room whistling.*
*Screws around with his holographic computer.*
---

*Jake watches Leo closely, and silently puffs on his cigarette.*
Jake: This is what happens when you make deals with monster, you become one.
*He sighs.*
Jake: I'm sorry Leo...but you brought this all on yourself.

*Leo stands up and starts walking towards the cell door*

*She slams her fist against it*

Leo: I brought this on myself!? You think I wanted to be turned into Flagg's puppet and do all those horrible things I did!? The only way Flagg got me to go through with what I did to Roland was by threatening to hurt the one's I cared about! He got his disgusting hands on Scatty... I couldn't let her get hurt... I wish it was different. I wish he just hurt me instead.

*Leo slams the door again*

Leo: But no. I wanted to throw Roland in that portal. I wanted Scatty to get hurt. I wanted to be turned into this flesh eating monster I am today!

*Leo backs away from the door and covers her face then proceeds to weep in a corner*

Leo: How did it all get so messed up?...

*Milo smiles and gestures at a new blade scar where his neck and shoulder meet*
Not so well. None of the surrounding villages would let any of their young men or women be recruited into the PDF. The last village refused quite violently.
*pauses at the comment about Maril being hurt and his knuckles audibly pop*
Good thing he isn't here or I'd show him how inventive I am with a knife....

*marla*

He s going back to Mars to face my fathers judgement...
And he,s rather fond of his granddaughter...

He might wanna rather face you...

*traces a finger down blade scar making a pale blue glow and smell of tea, scar still there*
Should hurt less anyway... *smiles*

Oh...*sighs*
What about arrow to knee village, there's a good sized yoen past there you might have better luck?

*Milo shivers at the touch*
*takes him a second to focus*
I'm heading out there tomorrow to try my luck, at the moment we barely have enough bodies to patrol a latrine, let alone this whole room!

*Tala finishes eating, then stretches, and stands up*
Let's go back. It's not the safest out here.

~

*Denny walks into the kitchen, and notices everyone dreary*
*Goes to the fridge, and takes out a beer*
D: What happened this time?

~

*The figure wakes up, and stretches*
Figure: feth...
*Gets up, and grabs her armour*
*Sighs in relief at it being dry, and puts it on*
*Walks out into the room after dispelling her spell that was on the ground in front of the door*

*Gharn comes back from his run and heads towards the showers*


*Scatty doesn't look up at Denny and Huitz grits his teeth at her casualness*
Huitz: Aoife.... Aoife has been killed...
*FInishes the meal and sets down a crude stew for Scatty, who ignores it*


*Mergoux comes from the gym and goes to walk outside*

*marla*
I know that town suffered a small down turn when a mine flooded and was closed. Just maybe a few needing work.

Maybe you might find better recruiting odds.

*sips wine*

...

*space wolves take choice cuts from hunting and furs and head out leaving fridge stacked high with various cuts of meat left over*

...

*marinalia slides out kitchen feeling the awkward and taker her Tea*
*lies down onna sofa looking at the not now there tv*
Ok... *pulls a random novel off coffee table*

*Milo sighs*
I hope so. We basically have 2 platoons worth of Guardsmen and me plus the last 4 Scions of my Squad. We just don't have enough manpower, and with crazy crap happening all the time here.
*takes off a gauntlet and just holds Marla's hand in his*

*marla*
Always found a answer to the problems before. This ones the same.
*smiles at the hand feeling it through her augmented arm*
(still not quite like organic....)

*shrugs slightly* I could always nip along if it helps..
Talk nicely to some of the town mayors and such.

*Aerin stares heading back to the room with Winston's head on a trophy hook*

*Daveth is about to get some food, notices Huitz and Co grieving, and decides that he can wait*
*goes to the lounge room instead*

*Malcoy is in Kara's room looking pretty depressed*

*Denny doesn't visibly react, cause despite everything, she wasn't really a friend of Aoife's*
D: Sorry to hear. Who killed her?

~

*Figure walks around looking for someone to swindle*

*Gharn comes back from the showers and sits on a sofa, he nods to Daveth then looks at the figure frowning*
Gharn: Who are you?


*Scatty looks up, her eyes red-rimmed and her face damp, but with a look of fury and determination on her face*
Scatty; Kara...

*marinalia gets up using arm somewhat to pull against and goes to bed*

*cuddles and generally is content*

...

*marla*
Night milo... *kisses just to make sure bar women who like pdf members know a taken egg*

If you want any help Il join on your recruitment drive. Just wake me tomorrow morning and Il pop along.

*heads off to repressor to bed and plays with fluffy for abit*

...

*smpace wolves gone back to hall with there prime steaks and fillet joints *
*leave joking about if the Yarl can land them another gold haul *

*Denny nods, then grabs some apple juice*
D: I see. Well. Sorry for your loss.
*Kinda scoots out of the kitchen to avoid awkwardness*

~

*The figure tilts her head at Gharn*
Figure: Confidential. What do you want, kid?

*Gharn frowns*
Gharn: I am no child, and I was simply trying to be friendly. I was told I should be more... open.


*Scatty nods slowly, sighs deeply and gets up, then goes to Kara and Maiev's room*
*She knocks and when there's no answer she picks the lock and starts looking around*


*Huitz stays in the kitchen, eating his meager stew*

*Aerin reaches the room and looks around*
A: I'm back. Anyone see the Bear?

*Daveth doesn't feel like chatting so he sits off to the side*
*hopes that Elise is alright*

*Malcoy immediately springs off of Kara's bed and stares at Scatty when she walks in*

*The figure tilts her head*
Figure: To me kid, you're a kid. And being open isn't "Who you der hur?". That's just showing your inferior intellect.
*Tilts her head again(other direction) and looks over Gharn for things to swipe off him*

~

*The room would probably still be trashed from when Illidan popped up and decked Maiev and Kara, unless Kara cleaned up or something*

~

*Elise is waiting at the Illidari camp, which is clearing out quite fast cause they're mobalizing for a fight*
*About forty something Illidari are completely geared up, while a dozen or so remain on guard duty*
*Elise looks for Maiev*

*David keeps screwing around with his little computer deal.*
*Paces silently in the mainroom.*

---

*Brunor nods.*
Brunor: I agree... Lets go.
*Follows her closely as they start heading towards the room.*

---
*Jake sighs again at Leo, not flinching at her door banging.*
Jake: You were warned that if Flagg did anything to get Roland and I. We hammered this in your fething head yet you never listened. As I said before, you brought this all on yourself.
*Kills his cigarette, and walks out from the prison area to the main room.*

*Aerin examines the figure and David from across the room*
A: More humans? Figures.
*tries to pick up Brunor's scent, but the lounge is too cluttered*

*Kara didn't clean up, so yeah it's messy*

*The Ork admires the new shoota he made from the former TV*
*takes aim at the Snotling he threw into the ceiling and fires at him to test out his new toy*
*the Snotling disintegrates*

*David frowns at Aerin.*
David: No need for racism, I'm friendly.
*Scans Aerin, and frowns at his genetic make up.*
David: Looks like you have some human in you.

*Gharn glares*
Gharn: And this is why I don't waste time on humani.
*Turns and walks away, only real thing of possible value is the necklace of Onyx's teeth he wears*


*Scatty's jaw tightens as she looks around, she then gets up and walks back towards the kroot camp, hoping to track Kara*


*She just misses Morri and Cal who come out of their room, both looking pretty upset*

*Aerin looks over at David*
A: Most humans treat Witchers like gak.

*Scatty could probably follow Kara's tracks to the cave*
*Malcoy follows right alongside Scatty*

*Scatty easily trails Kara, no longer crying but instead looking very very angry and ready to commit a few atrocities*
*She looks back at Malcoy*
Scatty: What do you want?

*Malcoy stares back at Scatty and growls at her, cause he doesn't appreciate her snappiness*

*Scatty glares then turns away*
Scatty: Go home dog, you don't belong here....
*Keeps trailing Kara*

*Malcoy growls again, presses his ears back against is head, and keeps following Scatty*
*really doesn't like Scatty being rude to him*

*David shrugs.*
David: I'm not most humans, what's your name? And what is a Witcher?

*Aerin shrugs*
A: Aerin of Mulbrydale. And a Witcher is a monster hunter. Stripped of emotions, and trained to hunt and kill. Keep in mind that I work for a price, not for free.

*Denny shrugs at everyone, then sits at the couches*
*Frowns at the lack of TV*

~

*The figure smiles under her fabric thing that covers her mouth and nose*
Figure: Suit yourself.
*Tilts her head at Aerin*
Figure: Not a human, thank you. They can't do things I do as well as I can.

*the Ork begins fiddling with his new gun again*
*he jumps up on his tank and shouts into it*
Oi Makari! Get annuva Snotling up ere' I need target praktice!
*burnt bits of Snotling fall from the living room ceiling*

*David looks at Aerins swords, and can't help but smile under his helm.*
David: Not looking for any mercs right now, and I think I should be able to handle the local wildlife. Er.. names David.
*Jumps at the sudden appearance of the figure.*
David: Jesus! Sneaky chicks back...

---
*Jake walks into the mainroom, and walks up to Denny.*
Jake: Can we talk...
*He tries to mask his rage/sorrow.*

*Morrigan and Cal go to the sofas and sit silently*


*Scatty does her best to ignore Malcoy as she finds the cave and starts to enter, silent and sticking to the shadows to well she's practically invisible*


*Gharn goes off somewhere*

*Aerin nods to David*
A: If you change your mind, leave a message on the notice board. Anything from Fiends to werewolves, I can handle.
*raises an eyebrow at the figure*
A: What might you be? Don't smell like a monster. Nonhuman? Elf, if I'm any guess. Not Scoia'tael.

*Malcoy keeps on following after Scatty, padding along fairly quietly*
*Cave is empty at the entrance, but there's dried blood and a rotten smell everywhere*

*Kara is sitting cross legged in a deep chamber with her eyes closed*

*Tala walks with Brunor*

~

*Denny nods, and stands up*
D: What's up?
*Looks slightly worried*
D: Oh, Aoife died. Figured you'd want to know.

~

*Figure tilts her head*
Figure: Dunmer. Most you'll get out of me.
*Likes the amount of gear Aerin has, and can tell he has money*
Figure: Mercenary, huh? Sounds like my thing.

*Scatty keeps exploring, making no noise as she looks around*
*If she doesn't run into anything else then she sees Kara and slowly unsheathes her swords and starts creeping up on her*


*Mergoux heads back from the woods, slightly bloodied from a skirmish with bandits *

*Aerin shrugs*
A: Suit yourself, I'm not going to bother asking more.
*nods at the figure's second comment*
A: I hunt all sorts of creatures. Sometimes humans, other times its monsters.

*Malcoy barks as soon as Scatty draws her swords, and Kara's eyes flip open*
*green energy swirls around Kara and she sighs*
K: Teth a. Malcoy, Beres-taar.
*Malcoy immediately throws himself at Scatty, biting/pawing at her arms and throat*

*David frowns under his helm, and silently listens.*
*Notes what a Witcher is, and makes a new species log for "Dunmer."*

---
Jake: Aoife dead? ...That's terrible. What happened?
*He starts lighting another cigarette.*
Jake: I'll... explain what happened between Leo and I after.

---
*Brunor shrugs.*
Brunor: Do you wanna try using your lighting? Maybe I can get a better understanding of how it works?
*Gestures to a tree.*
Brunor: Try blowing the tree up.

---
*Brunor and Tala are silently watched by a set of amber eyes.*

*Tala nods, and starts charging up*
*Waves her tail around, which forms a ball of electricity*
*Throws it at the tree, which splinters a section of it, and makes the rest topple*
I can punch it with, more or less, the same result.

~

*Denny shrugs*
D: Kara killed her, apparently. Now what is this with you and Leo? Haven't cheated on me, have you?
*She nudges Jake to take off the edge*

~

*The figure nods again*
Figure: Coin must be good.

*Scatty wasn't quite expecting Malcoy to attack and is still pretty messed up mentally so she gets tackled by Malcoy*
Scatty: Oof!
*Starts trying to get Malcoy off of her, unafraid of using lethal force while also trying to avoid getting her head bitten off*


*Mergoux walks into the main room, leans against a wall and slides down to a sitting position, breathing hard*
*In full armor with her pack slung over her back along with her greatsword*

*David looks at Merg, and frowns.*
David: You got red on you.
*He then scans her.*

----
*Brunor nods approvingly at the toppling tree.*
Brunor: Powerful stuff, let me see something...
*He walks over to her, and just holds his hand above her skin and hair. (Seeing how powerful the static is.)*
Brunor: Hmm...

---
Jake: Kara did it? I'll have to question Scatty later.
*He hugs Denny, and buries his face in her shoulder.*
Jake: No.. wouldn't dream of cheating on you..
*He then explains Leo's confession, and what happened to Roland.*
Jake: I have her locked up for now, and still have no clue how to get Roland.
*He bummed af.*
---
*Amber eyes watch the tree get toppled.*
*Backs the feth up.*

*Leo has stopped crying and is now sitting in the middle of her cell*

*Her Kagune is still out but is now sitting still behind her*

Leo: (Maybe being the monster isn't so bad? Look at what trying to be the good guy has gotten me.)

*Brunor would probably get zapped from a fair distance away from Tala, cause the jolts of electricity are sporadic and vary in range*
*Zaps are shocking if he gets hit by any*

~

*Denny blinks a few times, then takes out her M6*
D: I'm going to pay her a visit. This gak ain't right.
*Notices how bummed Jake is, then puts her M6 away again*
D: Or... I think I might stay with you. I'll visit her later.

*Mergoux frowns at Dave*
Mergoux: Yeah, I've got to get cleaned up, I ran into some bandits in the forest.
*Says the word 'bandit' with a tone of utter disgust*

*Leo is now smiling in the cell*

*She starts playing with her Kagune and giggling*

Leo: (Wonder who's gunna open the cell first?)

*David smiles under his helm.*
David: Bandits.. seem threatening. I'll be sure to watch the roads.

----
*Brunor takes a zap, and seems a little shocked, he quickly puts up a quen shield.*
Brunor: Well looks like you have a powerful aura as well.. Maybe try a punch on the stump.

---
*Jake shakes his head.*
Jake: No need to interrogate her further.. and it isn't our right to end her, at least not yet.
*He keeps hugging her, and grits his teeth in thought.*

*Mergoux shrugs*
Mergoux: I'm just waiting on a adventurer's contract for them. There's so many that I'll need some other adventurers to take them out

*Tala nods, then flexes her hand*
I can make the aura field thing get a lot more intense too.
*Shrugs, and punches the stump into nothingness*
That what you wanted?

~

*Denny sighs, and holds Jake*
D: I understand, but I do want to talk to her about some things. Want to come with me, or do you just want to hang around here for a while?

~

*Figure tilts her head*
Figure: You getting payed for it?

*Mergoux shakes her head*
Mergoux: I will if someone puts out a contract to a adventure shop, but no-one has yet.
*Her looks darkens*
But I enjoy killing those scum. Never really have anything good on them though, all I got was a few dozen coins and couple of gems off these

David: I guess I could help.
*He shrugs.*
David: Don't really need the money, and I have a boom stick that should scare most bandits.

---
*Jake nods.*
Jake: That's fine... I'd like to be close by just in case.
*He keeps hugging her for a moment, then finally stops.*
Jake: Lets... just try and not be violent.

---
*Brunor keeps his quen shield up, and walks up to Tala.*
Brunor: Does it hurt draining yourself? Meaning if you kept throwing lightning balls for a period of time dose it cause you to feel fatigue?

*Tala shakes her head, and starts de-charging*
No, not really. If I get tired from fighting too much, then I can't gather enough fulgurbugs for it to be that strong, but that doesn't happen often.

~

*Denny pulls Jake back into the hug, and muffles him with her tits cause that generally cheers up everyone*
D: Let's get going then. And no violence, check.
*Starts slowly leading Jake to the cells*

~

*The figure nods once, then disappears into thin air*
*Starts making her way into the forest, uncloaking on the roads, then moves along, making as much noise as possible*
Figure: SURE WOULD BE A BAD TIME TO GET MUGGED.

*Mergoux blinks and looks around, mutters darkly about mages and goes to take a long bath*


*Some bushes ahead of the figure rustle slightly*

*In the bush several bandits are arguing almost silently*
Bandit1: It's gotta be a trap!
Bandit2: It's one female! We can taker her! Right?
*Several nods from the other 4 bandits in hiding*

*David frowns at Merg.*
David: Okay... I guess?
*Looks around then shrugs, and wanders off.*

----

*Brunor watches the splintered stump.*
Brunor: Alright... I'll study the one fulgur bug you gave me, see what I can come up with. C'mon lets head back to the room
*He nods, and starts walking.*
Brunor: How hard is to "cool" off, or spend the energy?

---

*Jake enjoys Denny's tits, lifting his spirits a bit.*
Jake: Thank you, it's just not worth hurting her over..
*Walks with Denny.*

*Tala shrugs*
I can do it without trying mostly. The massive discharge thing that I do takes a few seconds to pull off, but other than that, I can do everything else instantaneously.
*Holds Brunor's hand as they walk*

~

*Denny nods, and keeps an arm around Jake*
*Gets to the cells, then eventually finds Leo*
D: If you don't mind, I am going to ask you a few questions.

~

*The figure notices the rustling, but makes it seem like she doesn't*
*'Accidentally' drops a pouch of gold onto the ground, which makes clings of coin against coin*
*Leans down slowly to pick it up*
*Whistles while she does so*

*The men see the coin and greed overtakes caution*
*They jump out of the bush, wielding several clubs and chipped rusty swords*
Bandit1: Alright missy! You stop right there!

*The others move to surround her*

*Jake leans against a wall, and lights another cigarette.*
*Silently sits, and listens.*

---

Brunor: Well it seems you have a decent control of your powers, except when you get... excited.
*He smiles, and squeezes her hand.*
Brunor: Enough questions for now, lets just get back.

*Tala nods and moves closer to Brunor*
Who can control themselves when they're excited?
*Thinks of something arrogant to say, but can't actually think of anything*
*:<*
~

*The figure smiles broadly under her hood*
Figure: Slow down, kid. Tiid klo ul.
*Time around the figure slows to a near stop, and she goes around with a dagger slitting three of the four bandits throats*
*Stretches, checks her nails, then slowly starts freezing the remaining bandits feet to the ground, and works her way up to his knees*
*Steps back, and smiles as the slow time effect wears off*
Figure: Tell me where your leader is, and I'll let you live.

*The remaining bandit is quivering in fear*
Bandit: W-w-w-west! West of here! About 3 miles!
*Wets himself in fear of the scary lady as the others bleed out*

*Brunor wraps a arm around Tala, and smiles.*
Brunor: Yes I understand... don't worry about it, okay?
*He then opens the door to the room, and walks inside.*

*Tala nods, and follows Brunor in*
I won't. Wanna troll the humans?

~

*The figure smiles under her cowl, takes anything of value from the bandit, then boots at the ice, shattering both it and the mans legs*
Figure: Told you I'd let you live.
*Tells the direction from the sun, then sets off in the direction the bandit told her*
*Forgets something, and doubles back*
*Takes anything of value off the dead bandits, then heads back west*

*David jumps on the roof, and sits.*
*Watches the stars, and whistles to himself.*

---
*Brunor smiles and nods.*
Brunor: Of course.
*Pulls her close again, and nuzzles her slightly.*

*West leads to a small camp surrounded by a palisade*
*What few guards there are, are mostly not bored and not really paying attention*
*Inside the palisade are about a dozen tents set up around one larger tent*
*Bandits huddle around several fire pits chatting, drinking and laughing*

*Tala smiles at Brunor's friskyness, then shakes her head and steels herself*
No touchies. You know what happens.
*Walks into the lounge, then kicks a unoccupied sofa over*
Yo whassuuuup?

~

*The figure tilts her head, then goes invisible*
*Walks up to the palisade, and starts trying to scale it*

*Palisade is easily scalible and none of the guards notice her*


*Morri and Cal go to bed*

*Maria heads out into main room after a ling science montage*

Hey... Morning...
*looks round*
No tv.... Fun.

*shrugs and heads to kitchen to grab some food*
*waves to anyone about*

Oh. Anyone seen deadpool... Could use a word.

*The figure vaults the palisade walls, then makes her way towards the large tent*
*Looks into it while still invisible*

*In the middle of a large tent a man on large solid chair is talking with several other men*
*The man in the big chair is wrapped in furs and is heavyset with a big bushy brown beard.*
*The men around him all have a small red band on their right arm, marking them out from the rest. They also seem cleaner and more professional than the rugged men who huddle around fires outside*

*The figure tilts her head, then enters stealthily*
*She sits down in the corner, and listens*
*Low-key trying to think of a way to kill them all without making much noise, cause despite how skilled and magically adept she is, she can't slow time again for a while, and there are a few too many bandits to kill*

*Leo looks up at Denny*

Leo: Hmmm?

*Leo's Kagune stays out and she tilts her head at Denny*

*The burly man in the chair sighs*
Man: So he's dead?
*He addresses a unnaturally skinny blonde man who nods*
Skinnyman: Aye Lord Brogan, Lord Winston be slain
*Brogan snorts*
Brogan: Stupid wolf. Always knew he'd wind up dead like this
*The Captains shift uncomfortably as Brogan insults the Wolflord*
*Brogan shifts in his chair*
Brogan: Alright, see that the body is sent to Wergar and double the guard tonight, we don't want to be caught with our knickers down by whoever killed Winston.
*The captains nod and turn to leave*
Brogan: Fleetpaw, you stay, we've business to discuss
*The skinny man nods and sits down with Brogan and talks in hushed voices about the death of the Wolflord and who will fill his seat on some sort of council*
*Fleetpaw seems rather twitchy as he talks with the bigger man*


OOC: Sorry Vanden, but I really need to sleep. G'night all

*Brunor nods, and tones down the touching.*
Brunor: Sorry... I know... can't help myself..
*He watches her kick the couch, and silently shadows her.*
*Has a slight smile as he does this.*

*Tala frowns at being ignored by anyone, and kicks the couch a few more times*
Hellooooo? No human is going to object to me kicking this furnishing?

~

*Denny nods, and stands by the cell door*
D: Give me specifics. Time you betrayed Roland, how, what Flagg said he'd give you in return. Tell me everything you know.
*Doesn't seem phased by the kagune*
D: And keep whatever that is in your pants.

~

*The figure sits and listens*
*Takes out a piece of paper, and writes down some things*
*Plays with her hair while still invisible*
*Occasionally looks around the tent for lootable things, and writes down anything that sticks out on her piece of paper*

*Leo giggles*

Leo: Well you already know I chucked Roland into a portal. Flagg wanted to hurt Scatty so I couldn't let him, and in the end he added a potion in that cured Scatty of his control. So it work out pretty well if you ask me.

*Leo's Kagune flaps*

Leo: I don't remember the time honestly. Wasn't dark if that helps.

*Maria looks over from kitchen*

Its a sofa... We have like 9 of em anyway.
You just look like a abhuman kicking a sofa for no reason.

*shrugs*
Theres a gym if your that frustrated and wanna beat the gak out of stuff .

*sips coffee and just does not get beating a sofa ro death*

*Denny tilts her head at Leo*
D: You think this is funny, and that it was worth to betray someone who cared about you? You're a funny woman.
*Turns to Jake*
D: This is being recorded. I'm going to use this as evidence to prove her insanity.
*Turns back to Leo*
D: You're going to rot in here. I'll make sure of that.

~

*Tala frowns at Maria, then starts beating the gak out of the other couches*
This making you care?

*Leo nods to Denny*

Leo: Looking forward to it!

*Tears run down Leo's face but she remains smiling*

*Jake nods to Denny.*
Jake: Understood.
*Sits silently, and smokes his cigarette.*

---
*Brunor watches Tala, and smiles.*
Brunor: Maybe destroying all the couches is a bad idea... those are some nice couches.

*maria*
Minorly annoyed there's nothing comfey to sit on.
Why on terra are you even doing it.... Ot makes no sense. You walk in then decide you hate thr furniture...

*marinalia walks out and sees the scene*
Hey mum... I'm not even gonna try.
*goes to make self some food*

*because a random monster human hybrid with big soft furnishing rage is just not even gonna try worthy *

*Aerin shrugs at Tala kicking the furniture*
A: Not my house. Not going to complain.
*still has the wolflord head on a hook*

*Malcoy gets cut up pretty badly, but he still keeps mauling Scatty*
*any bite would definitely reach bone, if not breaking it*

*energy around Kara builds up, but she remains seated*

*Denny looks at Leo, with what can only be described as resent, then turns*
D: Let's go. Anything happens, I'll know.
*Takes Jake's hand, and leads him out to the main room*

~

*Tala pouts, and puts down the last couch*
*Looks back at Maria*
I'm doing it because I can. Duh.
*Sits on the last couch*
One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
*Looks at the wolflord head*
Oooo, that looks tasty.

*Jake nods, and takes Denny's hand.*
*Still looks really conflicted, as he walks.*
Jake: I just... don't understand..

---

*Brunor smiles, and sits next to Tala.*
Brunor: What'd you say?
*Notices Aerin.*
Brunor: Hey cat where you been? New trophy I see.

*Aerin shrugs and slides the head off of the hook*
A: Wasn't a contract for his head, and I don't need a werewolf trophy. Especially not from this ugly mutt.
*holds Winston's head out towards Tala*
A: You want to eat the thing, be my guest. Can't say I enjoy werewolf meat.
*shrugs at Brunor*
A: After collecting my payment, this thing and some bandits tried to rob me. Some of the bandits got away, but I know where they went. Apparently there's a whole crowd of them.
*Forgot to mention it, but Aerin drank some Swallow so his shoulder wound is completely healed*

*Leo hums to herself and thinks about things*

Leo: (I wonder what I'll do when I get out of here...)

*She shrugs and starts doing one handed push ups*

*Maria shrugs*

Idiot... *
Jeez.. There's decent meat in the fridge...

*goes off to pool and changes before swimming a few laps*
*Maria has a brainwave and swims ro side *

Deadpool.. You wanna kill somthibf and get cool loot...
(hopefully that summons him)

...

*marilania ignores living room partly cooking in kitchen *
Great. Always withe the bandits round here...

What's it with this place and em...

*Tala shrugs at Brunor*
Something I heard somewhere.
*Eyes light up at Aerin offering it*
Good.
*Snatches the head*
Don't expect me to say thank you. Not like me.

~

*Denny sighs, and nods with Jake*
D: I know... It's got to be hard... But we'll find Roland. We will. I promise you that.
*Feels bad for Jake*

*Aerin shrugs*
A: Don't expect me to keep giving you hand outs.

*Wade teleports next to Maria*
DP: You rang, sweetie?

*Jake nods, and sighs as well.*
Jake: We will..
*He kills his cigarette, and looks up at Denny.*
Jake: Think I'm going to our room, don't really want to be around the others. You're welcome to join me.

---
Brunor: Hmm.. never heard it before.
*Brunor shrugs then turns to Aerin.*
Brunor: That's interesting and they are lead by these werewolves?

*Aerin back at Brunor*
A: The mutt made it sound like he was in charge. Means that there will be a power struggle, or he's got a second command with a new promotion. But there are more werewolves in the camp, that much is certain.

*maria*
Aye wade... You like money and killing people...

There's a dark mechanicous faculty on a dead world..
We cannot aproach is as its in a dead system without em bugging out. So we need someone with a special talent...

They have good sensors...
So... You wanna wipe it out the feth of existence, kill everything that moves and generally deliver some payback... They hurt my daughter... I hurt them more.

Oh and turn there leaders skull into a small trash can to chuck desk junk into...

*swims backwards and treads water as more comfortable *
So you want a job*

...

*marinalia finishes cooking and heads back to room*
*ignores the witcher tala gathering as decides safer*

*Tala shrugs at Aerin and Brunor, then starts eating the wolflords face*
Tastes like gak. Still eating it.

~

*Denny nods, then takes Jake's hand again*
D: I'm with you, now and forever.
*She leads him to their room*

*Wade shrugs*
DP: Yeah yeah yeah "spooky base, they hurt family". I get it. What's in it for me? I don't wipe out whole places just because someone told me to.

*Brunor smiles at Tala.*
Brunor: Well alright then.
*Turns to Aerin.*
Brunor: I see.. maybe I can help if I have the time.

---
*Jake immediately hugs Denny when they enter their room, and buries his face in her chest.*
Jake: Thank you... for everything...
*Tightens the hug, and finally looks up at her.*
Jake: I love you, my Ka-mate.

*maria swimming slowly round*
Well... Money... Signed dead pool poster circa m2... All loot you want... ? I don,t know, what you after?

What's the price?

*Tala leans on Brunor, and gradually falls asleep while drooling blood on him cause she messy eater*

~

*Denny hugs Jake back, then kisses him*
D: Love you too, gunslinger.
*Picks Jake up, and lies him down on the bed, while she lies ontop of him*
D: Just take your mind off today. Focus on me.

*Leo switches arm and continues doing push ups*

Leo: (Thinking about it. Does it really matter what I am? I mean is being different that bad? Sure I gotta eat people, but is that really that different from a person eating some beef? Honestly its probably better, I'm not breeding the animal to be slaughtered. I'm just slaughtering the animals.)

*Leo's Kagune twitches*

Leo: How bad can I possibly be?

*Brunor smiles at the sleeping Tala, and supports her.*

---
*Jake returns the kiss, and makes no resistance at being picked up.*
Jake: ... Okay.
*He stares back at Denny, and helps her out of her bodyglove.*
*Then focuses on Denny, venting a bit of his frustration in the process.*

*Tala sleeps on Brunor*

~

*Denny gets laaaaaaaaaaaaid*

*Aerin nods*
A: Might be something worth a Witcher's time. Only one way to find out.
*glances at the sleeping Tala*
A: Must be proud, Bear.

*Wade giggles*
DP: I want something big. Money, now that's boring. I can get money anywhere. Loot? Nah, can you imagine me using some spiky gun like that? No way, sister. Not my style.

*Maria sighs and sits on side of pool drying off hair abit in swimwear *

Ok.. Big...
I dunno... Ship? Stealth ship?

I can look for a issue one, deadpool or other stuff like that?
Your not easy to buy for wade...

*Gharn goes for a run*



*Brogan eventually nods to Fleetpaw*
Brogan: Alright, it's decided then. I think we should get some rest, eh?
*Fleetpaw bobs his head up and down*
Fleetpaw: Aye Lord, I'll be headed off t'bed now. Ye want yer guard t'night?
*Brogan nods*
Brogan: Best to be careful if there's someone killing Werelords
*Fleetpaw leaves the tent as the bigger man lies down on a large mat of furs and pulls several overhimself*
*5 guards enter the tent, some of the few that aren't drunk by this point, and stand guard near the doorway of the tent and by Brogan's bedside*



*Scatty grits her teeth in pain as her arm is broken by Malcoy, repeatedly stabs with her good arm then finally tries to sink her own vampire teeth into Malcoy's throat*


*Morrigan sits with Morgan and Dria as both weep over the news of Aoife's death in their rooms*

*Marla heads to med bay to check on somthibf Maria was working on*

*Leo is sleeping in on the floor in the cell*

*Her Kagune is no longer out*

*Brunor keeps watching Tala sleep, then looks at Aerin and frowns.*
Bruno: What are you talking about? Why am I proud?
*Keeps his frown.*

*Cal can't find Leo in her room and looks around for her in general*


*Mergoux fell asleep in the bath and is snoozing*

*marinalia looks up seeing cal cuddling on a cushion pile*

Who ya looking for, or what cal?
You seem... More wandery ...

*victor looks up and nods*
Hey. Aye.. We not seen much but Mali was out earlier in morning getting breakfast.

*Cal sighs*
Cal: I'm looking for Leo... She was the first to find Scatty after well...'yknow...

*marilania*
Not seen her. Mum mentioned seeing her... Not sure what, I was kinda sleepy n I'm only just off the meds for getting stabbed. *sighs.* sorry cal..

And yeah... We never knew her much but still sad.

*victor*
Maria probbly in pool. That's where we know she was last anyway. She may be somewhere else.

Never even was introduced truth be told. Sorry Dr cal for your loss none the less.

*The figure tilts her head at the guards, then goes invisible again*
*Moves around the tent, trying to find a way through the guards*
*Eventually says 'feth it', and fires an ice spike through a guards while making a wall of ice to block off the entrance of the tent*

*The guard screams and clutches at the ice spike in his chest before collapsing*
*The other guards look around for the attacker and if they spot her the ones by the door attack and the ones by Brogan stand ready to defend their Lord who sits up*
*If she's still invisible then the ones by Brogan still stand guard as he gets up but the other 2 by the door start searching*


*Cal nods*
Cal: I'll go look for her... Thank you Victor.
*Nods, still looking tired and in mourning and goes to look for Maria at the pool*

*Leo remains asleep in the cell but her Kagune shoots out of her back as she dreams of eating*

*Her wings twitch slightly*

*Maria notices cal*
Oh hey... What's up cal.

*sat by pool edge in bikini just finishing off drying her hair from earlier*

...

*victor*
Aye, good luck finding her. Night cal.
Come on. Princess does not have to walk. *laughs*
*lifts up marinalia and carries her off to bed*

*marinalia waves and lets self be taken back to room*
*sleeps *

*Aerin shakes his head*
A: Don't worry about it, Bear.

*Malcoy swipes one last time and relents his grip from Scatty's arm as he goes limp*
*A large ring forms on the ground around Kara, with brownish smoke coming from the edges*
K: Kata. Issala.

*One tent of the bandit camp holds several prisoners (various ages, and both sexes)*
*One particular prisoner is forced to the ground by silver blades through his legs, keeping him in one place*

*Scatty stands unsteadily and wipes her mouth before screaming a barbaric warcry at Kara, throwing several knives and charging her*
*Her eyes are red from bloodlust*


*Cal looks at Maria*
Cal: I'm looking for Leo, do you know where she is?
'

*A captain is one of several guards watching over the prisoners*
*He stands outside the tent swigging from a hip flask*

*The figure tilts her head, then the cloak runs out*
Hmm.
*Stands up, and draws a blade*
Do me a favour and die quietly.
*Forms another ice spike, and throws it at another guard*
*Smiling like a madwoman*

OOC Sword

*The guard falls dead as his companion shouts and charges*


*The other two guards stand infront of Brogan *
Guard: M'Lord?
*Both are quivering in fear as the Werelord shoves one towards the tent wall*
Brogan: Go! Send Fleetpaw to Lord Delmere! I'll take care of this
*The guard nods shakily and cuts then cloth tent with his dagger then attempts to slip away as Brogan begins to change*

*maria looks up*
Oh.. That.. Leo. . If she still there.

Yeah. I saw her Jake took her to cells. She seems to have betrayed his father... Locked her up. That's what he said anyway... Somthibf about Roland deciding her fate... And some stuff about a dark tower...

I don,t know thr backstory... nore if Leo is guilty of this charge honestly. I just have what Jake said to go off at end of day.

*gets up and wraps a towel round self for warmth*
That's all I know... Honest.

Night cal. Take care ... And sorry about Aofie .
*heads off to bed*
*walks over to repressor, loses damp clothesand goes to bed*

*Balls of energy collide with the knives, causing them to fly wildly off course*
*As soon as Scatty enters the ring, her vision would turn foggy and she'd start to feel much weaker*
K: Teth a. Scathach. Katara.
*more balls of energy form, and swirl around Kara at higher speed*

*Cal frowns and nods*
Cal: Thank you, goodnight
*Goes to find Leo in the cells*


*Scatty groans, staggers a few more steps towards Kara and swings her weapon, still very fast but rather clumsily*


*Mergoux wakes up, climbs out of the bath and gets dressed*

*One of the balls flies into Scatty's chest, sending her backwards but not doing much else*
*Kara finally gets into a fighting stance and holds her staff out in front of her*
K: Last warning. Go.
*stares at Scatty and her staff starts to glow as it charges up*
She will not relent. Better to end her now, Herald.

*Scatty stands, pretty beat up from Malcoy's mauling and breathing heavily*
Scatty: You killed... my sister...
*Scatty charges again*

*A white crystal (it's actually energy, not matter, but it's in the shape of a crystal) flies from the staff directly towards Scatty*
K: Basra.

*Scatty rolls under the crystal and comes out of it running with her blade held out ready to stab*

*The figure tilts her head again, then dispatches the last man with a throwing dagger to the throat*
Werewolf. Great.
*Test swings her sword a few times, then sighs*
Make this hard for me.
*Throws another dagger at Brogan, this time tipped with a potent poison meant to kill normal things*

*The dagger catches in the thick furs Brogan wears as he chuckles*
Brogan: Werewolf? No my dear, I'm something entirely different
*He grows bulkier and bulkier, thick fur sprouts has his skin becomes a thick tough hide, his hands turning into wide flat pawhands*
*His head becomes heavier and his mouth extends into a snout*
*The Werebear towers over the figure easily reaching 10 feet in height and roars, alerting the camp*

*Leo is still sleeping in the cell but she is twitching and rolling around enjoying her dream*

*The figure looks up at Brogan, then tilts her head*
Werebear. How many other lycanthropes are here...
*Figure sighs, and holds her sword in one hand as she reaches into her cloak*
*Pulls out a dark coloured dagger, and backs away slightly*

*Kara jabs her staff at Scatty, sending a wave of energy to fire out at her*
Enough of this. I will do this job for you, if you cannot kill the girl.
*Several Ogres and various other Darkspawn are heading towards Kara and Scatty en masse*

OOC rip in pip.

OOC They're in a cave.

Gharn: Who are you?
OOC: Gharn's human looking, blonde about 20 with several nasty claw scars marring the right side of his face
bic

*Scatty tries rolling again but gets hit and sent flying back cracking her head against a wall*

*Brogan sighs*
Brogan: Ursanthrope, I'm a Ursanthrope you uneducated girl
*He grabs a massive battleaxe from next to his chair and swings it down in a massive overhead swing easily powerful enough to cleave Vanden's figure in two with ease should it connect*

*Kara walks towards Scatty, the ring following her as she moves (keeping Kara at the center)*
K: Didn't want... this.
*Kara practically hisses the last word, and raises her staff, but before she can do anything, she snaps her head towards the entry that Scatty used*
*Quite a few Darkspawn are pouring through it, and Kara growls*
K: Basra. She's mine.
Stand down, Herald. I will deal with you, after the girl is taken care of.

*Scatty is concussed pretty badly, tries getting up, fails and falls on her broken arm, cries out in pain and lies still*

*The figure dances around the axe, and cuts at the back of Brogan's leg*
Lycanthropy. A disease that causes the victim to transform into a were-creature. You're a lycanthrope, where I come from.
*Continues dancing around, almost untouchable*

*Kara turns from Scatty to face the Darkspawn, and casts Mass Paralysis on them*
K: Itwasaam.
*grabs Scatty by the collar of her shirt and starts dragging her towards a different branch of the cave*

*Brogan growls as people run around the camp and start cutting into the tent and bashing at the ice*
*Instead of replying Brogan lets his axe do the talking*

*Leo wakes up in her cell and looks around*

Leo: Ah gak I'm pretty hungry.

*She forces her Kagune to retract*

*She shrugs and starts doing sit ups*

*Scatty is too weak to do much of anything to fight Kara but glares and spits blood at her*


*Cal walks in and looks at Leo*
Cal: Leo? I want to talk to you

*Leo looks up at Call*

Leo: What's going on doc?

*Leo's eye is black and red*

*It twitches*

*Kara keeps dragging Scatty, trying to outpace the Darkspawn that didn't get paralyzed*
*growls at getting spit on, but doesn't retaliate besides that*
The girl is meaningless, Herald. Let her die.

*Figure keeps on dodging, then sighs as the tent starts getting cut into*
Un-fun way it is.
*Her hands briefly glow blue, then she points them at Brogan*
Freeze, dirtbag.
*Fires a cone of cold-esque type of spell at Brogan, which is mostly constant in firing*

~

*Illidari have assembled a little bit away from the darkspawn camp*
*Illidan is chilling with them*
Illidan: They are not prepared. Initiate the attack.
*The four or so dozen Illidari do so*

*Two Shrieks (thin, ghoul like creatures with blades poking out of their forearms) uncloak in front of the Illidari and and leap at them*

*The old prisoner looks up and frowns, hearing the sounds of the figure's fight against Brogan*

*Brogan lifts up his bedding and hurls it at the figure. His thick fur protects him from much of the cold but is fur starts freezing in places and he's forced to shut his eyes and shield his face from the blast of cold*


*Scatty fights against falling unconscious from bloodloss*


*The captain of the prisoner guards looks around at the assembled men*
Captain: Stay here, watch this one
*Points to the Old Prisoner then turns to jog off towards the main tent*


*Fleetpaw is well gone*


*Several men cut their way into the tent to see the scene before them with the cold blast*
*They pause briefly then one shouts and chargers, triggering the rest into action*

Statement Redacted

*Figure focuses the double beams of frost at the bedding, slowing its impact, then freezing it in a very short time*
*One of her hands glow purple instead of blue, as she flicks her purple hand towards the group of men running*
*Flicks the frozen bed at them, which shatters into shards of ice on impact*
*Goes back to freezing Brogan*

~

*Two Illidari jump out to intercept the shrieks, while the rest push on*
*Illidan is at the front, so gak is gonna go down*

*David wakes up on the roof, and quickly jumps to the ground.*
David: Fething boring day...
*Starts walking into the room, until he notices the incoming phantoms.*
David: Oh good..

Brunor: Alright then...

Statement Redacted

*Kara lifts Scatty into the air and pokes her with her staff*
*Green light travels through Scatty, closing her wounds, but also causing a burning sensation to follow with it*
*keeps taking her to a specific destination (the pool)*

*Old Prisoner looks between the guards*
OP: Hardly necessary, I assure you.

*Shrieks duel the Illidari, cloaking at will to disoriented the elves*

*The guard grunts*
Guard: Cap'n said ta watch ya. So's that's what we're gonna do.

*The guards get bowled over by a giant frozen set of bedding and most are knocked out, cut up, killed or have the
wind knocked out of them*

*Brogan uses his broad axe blade of shield his face as he bum-rushes the figure*

*The Guard captain bursts through the rip in the tent, sees his lord charging the figure, feels the cold, shivers and hefts his pike then jabs towards the figure*


*Cal frowns at Leo*
Cal: Doc? You've never called me that before... I want to talk to you about Scatty, you were the first one to find her


*Scatty groans weakly in pain from the fade (I think) energy healing her*

*Leo gets off the floor*

Leo: Correct. What do you need?

*Leo's eye twitches again*

*Cal watches Leo*
Cal: (Something's wrong) Uh... what... Sorry, are you okay?

*The figure smiles as Brogan charges her*
Time's up. Tiid klo ul!
*Time basically freezes again for everyone but the figure, as she walks up to Brogan, stabs him underneath the chin(upwards into the brain) with one of her daggers, withdraws it, then slices and cuts the rest of the men in the tent, including the new captain*
*Time eventually unfreezes with the figure standing behind Brogan*

~

*Denny cuddles back, and barely stirs cause she's comfy*

~

*Illidari aren't that spooked cause they've fought worse, and they push up to the cave entrance*
Illidan: I will go first. Follow me, then split up in pairs and kill any demon you find. Release anything that isn't demonic, and guide them out.
*Illidan enters the cave, barely stopping to kill anything in his path*

*Kara reaches the pool and lifts Scatty above it*
*stops herself from dropping Scatty into it, and rests her staff against her forehead*
K: Ash asala.
*moves the tip of her staff (which now has Kara's blood on it, cause it drained her) into the pool*
K: You might learn now, Scathach.
*unceremoniously drops Scatty into the pool and watches her intently*
*No matter what state Scatty is in, she can't drown, but her limbs would feel like lead, and the experiences that Kara dealt with in her last week or so would repeatedly flash through her mind*

*Old Prisoner sighs*
OP: Can't argue, I suppose. Almost feel sorry for you, having to watch an old man stand here.

*Illidan leaves a trail of Shrieks, Ogres, Genlocks, and Hurlocks behind him, but the Darkspawn don't seem to be bothered by the losses*
This is the end, for you.
*Lusacan's voice seems to come from the walls themselves, echoing around Illidan and his army*

*Brogan groans, totters and falls backwards*


*Lotso dudes die*



*Scatty's scream is cut off by the liquid in the pool as she writhes weakly*


*One guard glares at the Old Man*
Guard: Don' see why yer so special... Jus' another old geezer. Why'd Brogan keep you den? Y'ain't even good fer labor

*Kara keeps watching Scatty writhe, wanting to make sure that Scatty properly sees what happened, before she hauls her back out of the pool*
*immediately presses her staff against Scatty's gut and stares directly into her eyes*
K: Should not have come.

*Old Man shakes his head and lifts his hands towards the guard in a sign of appeasement*
OM: I know what to do with some herbs. But really, there is no reason to bother yourself with me. Brogan, he is likely out to take credit for defending this place alone. Hardly fair, not to a capable fighter like yourself.
*hoping that the guard likes flattery*

*Figure looks down at Brogan, then severs his head with one cut*
*Walks out of the tent after stripping it of anything valuable(which she stashes in a little sack of hers, and whatever swords and stuff she picks up are kept on her back*
*Twirls Brogan's head around*
Oh baaaandiiiiits... Your leader is deeeaaaad!
*Still hasn't noticed the deepish cut in her side from the captain's pike, cause she's got a lot of adrenaline going through her*

~

*Illidan and his warriors don't seem phased by the voices, as they keep going*
*Illidan and four of his Illidari press on, where the rest of the warriors start getting bogged down by all the darkspawn*
Illidan: I do not fear you, demon.

*Leo smiles*

Leo: I'm great! Finally decided to embrace whatever it is that I am. You're looking at a much happier Leo!

*Leo's Kagune bursts from her back*

Leo: I mean look at this! I don't even know where they came from!

*Her wings flap*

*Most of the men stare in shock*
*Two captains are brave(stupid) enough to try and attack her, one with a sword and one with a bow*

*A 3rd captain shouts in anger and transforms*
*He bulks up and grows about 8 inches taller with a short snout, a rudder like tail and sleek brown waterproof fur
*The WereOtter hefts a pike and hurls it before drawing a longsword and charging*


*Scatty stares at Kara, less hating her and more what made her kill Aoife*
Scatty: How... kill what did this?


*The guard harrumphs as his companion looks over at him*
Guard: Hmph, 'e's a Bearlord 'e is. I ain't gonna touch that. 'Sides, 'e's a fair man. 'e'd give credit to them that earns it


*Cal looks disturbed*
Cal: Embrace what you are? What do you mean by that?

*Leo frowns*

Leo: You know how I have to eat people and all that stuff. Wait have I told you about that?

*Leo tilts her head*

*Kara sets Scatty down and backs away from her*
*shakes her head at Scatty's question*
K: Doesn't... die.
*suddenly, the glow in Kara's eyes seems to darken and she kneels down next to the pool*
*greedily drinks from it, and shivers occasionally*

*Old Man sighs, then nods at the silver blades poking through his legs*
OM: At least do an old man a favor. Help me off of these, it's not like I can do anything against you anyway.
*skin around the silver is burnt and covered in scabs*

So be it. Carry onwards, at the cost of your lives.
*Lusacan snarls*
Or bow your heads, and know the meaning of being a god.

*Cal looks mildly horrified*
Cal: No I don't believe you have, what- What happened to make you this way!?


*The guards go to respond then another bandit runs over bemoaning the death of Brogan the Bearlord*
Guard: D-d-d-dead!? I'm getting the feth away from whatever did that!
*He scrambles away as guard 2 debates running after him or freeing the prisoners then decides*
Guard2: Feth it, Brogan wouldn't want you helpless
*Starts cutting ropes but is quickly jumped and killed by angry prisoners who free everyone else and book it*


*Scatty closes her eyes and her expression turns to one of defeat*
Scatty:...Kill me then.... please..

*Leo starts walking towards Cal*

Leo: Honestly, I don't know! Haven't the slightest clue! HA! It's so FRUSTRATING ! But you know what. It doesn't matter to much. Cus if I'm stuck in here for much longer, I'm going to fething lose my MIND ! I am so hungry!

*Leo starts laughing*

*Figure would usually be able to dodge/catch arrows, but the wound in her side slowed her a bit, and she takes the arrow right in the centre of her chest, and the pike is easily avoidable despite the arrow lodged there*
*Tilts her head at being hit, then draws her sword and parries the captains sword with a one handed hit*
*Counters quickly, despite her wounds*
*Drops the head, then throws a dagger at the wereotter in almost the same motion*

~

*Illidan says nothing, and pushes on*
*He and his four Illidari keep cutting through, while the rest have just about stopped advancing*
Illidan: You will pay for the deaths of my kin.

~

*Elise is trying to sneak past the dozen or so guards left at the Illidari camp, but that's a lot easier said than done*

*The captain with the sword shouts in pain and falls back clutching a wound*

*The Wereotter takes the blade to the side and growls in pain but yanks out the dagger and dual wields dagger and longsword against the figure*


*The captain with the bow takes aim for another shot but currently the Wereotter is in the way*


*Cal looks disturbed by Leo's obvious insanity and strides off quickly*
Cal: Gotta find Quetz... he might be able to help her...

*Kara looks up from the pool to stare at Scatty*
K: Can be... banished.
*tightens the grip on her staff, and shivers again*
K: You... need to go. Lusacan... is angry.

*Old Man rubs his legs and shakes his head (after he got freed)*
OM: Free at last. Might as well meet the rescuer.
*forces himself onto his feet with a grimace, and starts stumbling towards where he heard fighting*

As will you for mine.

*Leo watches Cla leave and frowns*

Leo: Aww where are you going!? Could you at least get me a snack!?

*Leo shrugs and goes back to push ups*

*Her eyes twitch and her Kagune starts whipping around slightly*

*Scatty stands slowly and nods blearily*
Scatty: I'll be back...
*Staggers slightly then catches herself and starts running out of the cave*


*Cal finds Quetz and explains the situation*
*Quetz nods and immediately goes to Leo's cell, floating slowly, he approaches the door, frowns, carefully manages to open it then starts trying to cram his head inside so he can be with Leo instead of being separated by bars*
