*Aerin shrugs*
A: Call me what you want.

*Voskrinod keeps smirking*
V: You remind me of the Zerrikanians. It's rare for anyone of my kind to find hospitality outside of their lands.

*marinalia*
Aye... Guess one thing I'm gonna have to get used to for once.
*smiles slightly and follows on walking n walking softly*


*Maria overhears energy blade chick*
You might wanna tell your chain of command, there was a large xeno battleship in this system. Not sure if still here. But it held planet under blockade. 20km+
Hostile. Any orbital assets may want to be careful. It may still be in area, it may not however. Intel is limited. Last positive id is fairly old.

*Furia follows thoeth keeping close as not trust the forests*

*Bolting back from the previous direction, accidentally bumping forcefully into Voskrinod; a large gash is open along the boss' right arm*

Urk, 'scuze me, surprised ya didn't hear me comin' back. Uhh, ya might wanna talk less o' da talk and walk more o' da walk. Dey've got one a dem Bludfirsters 'eaded dis way. Real spoilsport he was, I was havin' a ball krumpin' those puny Daemon gitz when 'e showed up and did this ter me...

*Gestures to gash*

...So, in return I gave da Bludfirster a quick lil' punch ter da jaw wif my Powerklaw. He'z mighty riled up now, so ya can go shut yer yaps and move, or else we'll be permanent roommates on da opposite sides uv a big ol' Daemon toof.

...NO, I AIN'T RUNNIN' CUZ I SCARED. I just wanna... make sure I get da right tools to stomp him propa before I go back fer anutha go, see?

Ooc night folks. Guten day folks.

Welcome back kk.

Jason: Never heard of such a place, but that talk will be later as well.
*Jason nods to Vosk, and a group of servitors lead the witchers party to there rooms.*

---
*Energy blade chick nods to Maria.*
EB: We are well aware of the unknown alien craft, enough questions.
*Keeps leading.*
--
*George leads, and so does skull chick.*

--
*A female voice out of Cal's view speaks.*
Voice: You flew in restricted airspace, and were shot down. Now we wait for my superior to decide what to do with you.

*Cal sighs*
Cal: Restricted airspace? That's new to me. When did it get restricted? And how long have I been unconscious?


*Morri carries Scatty to the base*
Morri: Hm. What is this place?


*Merg and Gharn keep following along*


*Thoth, Ra, Morgan and Dria keep walking*

*Freya tags along after Morri since I completely forgot about Dakka for like 4 hours*
*stays quiet and just observes everything*

*Voskrinod brushes himself off and chuckles*
V: I'm sure it regrets harming you. Good luck in your fight, ogroid.
*follows after the servitor after nodding his thanks to Jason*

*Aerin follows along, staring blankly ahead*

*Thinking to self, albeit out loud*

Mork knows, I musta hit the poor carker too hard in da head when I ran by, cuz he's not actin' even a bit worried 'bout bludfirsters. Guess he's never me one in da flesh... I s'pose dey will, if I walk fasta.

Also, dat cut in me arm's bulgin' and oozin'... And smilin'. What da zog did da Warp gitz do ter me?

*Hastily cuts growth out of arm, which grows limbs and horns, resembling a pudgy bloodletter the size and shape of a nurgling*

Good Gork, I dunno if it's disgustin' or adorable. I fink I'll keep it.

*a Looted Wagon zooms up behind Kommissar and the Kommanda pops out of the hatch*
Oi! Dis 'ere is my turf ya git. Zog off!

*Jason smiles, and walks up to Morri.*
*As he walks skull chick, stands next to him, and another figure seem to step from the shadows and stands opposite of skull chick.*
Jason: Ah yes, our first "elder" ... You must be Morrigan the crow goddess, correct?
*Skull chick twitches, and puts a hand on her sword hilt.*

*The female voice doesn't say anything more to Cal.*

*Witchers are lead to their respective room.*

---
*Treebeard sits on a stump in his sanctuary, and speaks with the leshens about tree stuff.*
*It's a long talk.*

*Morri is instantly on edge*
Morri: Hold on, how the feth do you know who I am? What I am? Who are you?


*Cal sighs and starts working his fingernail into his palm, trying to cut himself*

*The BRex revs its engines and charges Billy*

*The turrets on its back shoot at Wade and Zoey/Cathy*

*Cathy giggles while she shoots*

*Curt continues to follow Gorge*

*Aerin dumps his stuff off in a corner of the room and sits down*
A: Not sure if this is more like a tavern or a prison.

*Voskrinod shrugs and looks around*
V: Sometimes humans can commit acts of kindness, Cat. And they happen more often when you are kind as well.

*Kara sits down cross legged and admires the sanctuary*

*Wade grins and fires at the turrets*

*Rest of my roster is still walking afaik, excluding Daveth who I'm p sure is elsewhere in the sanctuary*

*In a very stern tone to the small, blobby Daemon*

Now don't ya go dyin', cuz I'll get propa riled up about it. But I'm givin' ya a job at do.

*Shouting at WK's looted wagon kommanda*

Zog off, ya git! I'm a Warboss! Not just a boss, I'm da Boss!

*Hurls little Daemon at the wagon hatch as it makes a squeaky cry that sounds like "Wheee"*

*Jason grins a knowing grin.*
Jason: It's my business to know these things, I am Jason Thulman, Master of assassins.
*He shrugs.*
Jason: I've been watching this place for some time.
---
*A pistol barrel nudges the back of Cal's head.*
Female voice: Stop whatever you are doing, lay back and remain still. Understand?
*The sound of the hammer being pulled back on the gun echos around the room.*

---
*Zoey keeps firing at the rex, and concentrates on avoiding getting sprayed by bullets.*

*the Kommamda responds*
Ya don't look lik any kind a boss ta me! Ya look like a mangy grot ta me!
*reaches into the tank and throws a snotling at Kommissar*
*watches the little demon sail past*
Nice shot ya git!

*Freya begins following Morri's trail towards the base*

*Cathy focuses on peeling the guns off the BRex's face*

*A bullet hits her and her shield flickers*

Cathy: Hey!

*BRex continues making gak loads of explosions and fire*

*Cal relaxes his hands and tries to angle his head up to see his captor*


*Morrigan narrows her eyes*
Morrigan: Imperium then. Why should I trust you with... anything? You've been spying on us, that's not a good start to our relationship.

*Billy's shield breaks and he dives into cover before he get's shot to pieces*
*He huddles down, waiting for his shield to regen*

*Aerin meditates*
*Voskrinod is checking out their room, but keeps his space from the Witchers*

*Wade teleports off of BRex and keeps firing at it*
DP: Come on, you thot! Shoot the guy with no shields why don't ya?

*Cal sees a fine ass female vindicare assassin, and then gets pistol whipped by her gun.*
FV: Stop moving.

--
*Jason shrugs.*
Jason: Then go, you'll be considered an enemy combatant, and shot when we meet again. I know your kinds weaknesses.
*Skull girl draws a glimmering silver energy sword to demonstrate.*
Jason: So... make your move, "Goddess."
---
*Tala Npc sleeps.*
*Brunor goes up to Aerin.*
Brunor: You trust these guys?

--
*Zoey frowns at the gunfire from the Rex, and starts dashing for cover.*
*Frowns at finally running out of ammo, and draws her energy sword.*
Zoey: Stay here Cathy... (OOC also smoke weed everyday.
*Runs towards the rex.*

*Cal yells in pain as he's pistol whipped*

*Morrigan looks around and her jaw tenses in what could almost be fear*
Morrigan: Why would you even consider helping us? Aren't we 'filthy xenos'?

*Cathy nods to Zoey and tries to distract the BRex in any way she can*

Cathy: Don't get shot! You are to pretty for scars!

*The BRex starts chasing Wade and tries to bite him*

*Marilania, Maria, Marla and Furia follow the energy blade chick to the base, careful to try and leave less tracks as possible.

*Marinalia yawns slightly as they carry on to the base*
This is place is pretty remote. Must be a good few miles from the cave.

..

*The warp story remains clam as Milo waits in a large octagonal room for the next stage *

*Aerin looks up at Brunor*
A: I don't trust many people at all, Bear. I don't see why this Jason deserves anything after giving us a smile, a single room, and then bending over backwards to suit a dragon's ego.

*Wade starts doing rapid, short distance teleports while shooting at BRex's mouth*
DP: What big teeth you have!

*Jason shrugs.*
Jason: To call you a xenos is a misnomer, but that doesn't mean you creatures are to be trusted. Your hatred of the imperium and the god emperor is well known, and some of the acts that have transpired here... have warranted the emperors wrath. Choose now, stay or turn around and leave my base.
*Skull girl giggles.*

---
*Brunor nods.*
Brunor: Agreed... well... take care.

--
*Energy blade chick keeps leading to base, which is in sight.*

---
*Zoey shrugs, and keeps charging energy sword low, aims for the rex's side.*

*The BRex roars as its side is slashed a little*

*It stops chasing Wade and drives into the centre of the arena*

*It starts spinning and shooting flames from its exhausts again*

*Cathy's shields flicker and break as she ducks behind cover*

*Her hand gets burnt slightly*

Cathy: Gah! gak! My trigger finger!

*She wiggles the burnt fingers on her burnt hand then winches*

*Curt chats with BH*

*Morri bites her lip, thinking of Scatty who she's gently layed against a rock or tree or something*
Morri: I... I want your word that you won't harm me or mine.

*Morgan and Dria see a familiar figure*
Morgan: MOM!
*He lifts his sister and leaves Maril's side to run towards his mother*
*Morri turns in shock and is knocked off her feet by Morgan and Dria's tackling hug of reunion*


*Ra smiles slightly, happy to see Morri alive*

*Thoth calmly walks up to Jason*
Thoth: Might I presume that you are the leader here?


*Billy pops up, shield back to full and shouts*
Billy: Get some muthafetha!
*Charges on the opposite side of the Rex that Zoey is charging and brings his old spearheads into play. He slashes violently, the ancient runes allowing him to slice through the metal*


*BH chats back as they walk*

*Marilania, Maria and Marla breath a sigh of relief seeing a imperial base that's not a ruin or over run*

*Marla*
Thanks the emperor someone survived...
Hey morri, damn least a few more of us got reunited.

*Marilania glad Morri made it because Morgan and despite all kinda glad people they knew survived *
Finally... Ain't this a sight for sore eyes.

*Furia eyes up the base unsure as not seen places like imperial bases*
Man base... Different hall...
*looks round seeing things that look pretty odd to her*

*KK's small Daemon skips along the ground a couple times, then scrambles back toward the wagon and hops up onto turret. It begins flailing its tiny fists at the Kommanda, to very little effect*

YEAH, DAT'S IT! STOMP 'IM, LAD!

Sooo, you don't fink I'm a boss, eh? I'm almost da size of yer whole wagon, which makes me a heckuva lot bigger dan you, ya bigmouthed Snotling! Once da lil feller's had his fun, the real hurt's gonna begin fer dat insult.
