Ooc ... Seems patchy but works at least for now.
Might have to fully reset phone and do a bunch of file swapping about though, probbly gotta take it to call provider if gets any worse :(

Night folks..

*Denny does a complete 180 to follow Jake and Roland, and walks beside Jake, without another word*
*She is itching to shoot Leo in the gob*

~

*Tala frowns, and looks around at anything close*
T: Well I'm hungry, and there's nothing good to eat...

~

*Maiev grits her teeth as she steps backwards towards Kara, and takes her hand, seriously regretting not stabbing her earlier so she wouldn't be in this position*
M: We'll be on our way. It seems you don't want to help save this gakky world anyway. If you know so much about me, then you know I'd be more use to you than an entire team of your drug filled assassins.

~

*Hakan sits Calluna down, and manifests some very old looking paper from absolutely nothing, then sits down beside her, and starts showing her how to draw cool things, like horses and dogs*

~

*Gandrea low-key looking at Iris' tits cause she still doesn't trust her and she likes what she sees*

*Zoey walks outside the shuttle, and looks around for a bit.*
*Notices the hellish landscape, flying demons, and the black sky, an has the look of surprise.*
Zoey: Well then... Billy I give you two days in this hellhole.
*Turns back, and looks at him.*
Zoey: You best keep up, if you fall behind I keep moving... we find a high point, and try to comm Denny and Santiago..
*She starts to jog, so Billy be running like a mofo.*

---
*Jake and Roland keep making their way to Leo's location.*
*They step with purpose, but also looks out for any demons.*

---
*Brunor sniffs the air, and frowns.*
Brunor: Well I do smell something... fresh... smells kinda like human.

---
*Jason sighs.*
Jason: Admittedly... you would be a great asset. Though my faith isn't as strong as yours for your fiance. Regardless I will go aid you in killing this dragon. *Turns to george.* Have my gear prepped, you assume command.
*George nods, and walks off.*
Jason: I'm sure the Elders would love to help you... Yes sense Kara killed Aoife, I'm sure she will be, they would throw away their lives willingly for you.

---
*David notices Iris tits, but is too busy dealing with the overwhelming amounts of pain and suffering. Also Detheroc woke up and has been bitching like crazy about some guy called Illidan.*
David: Yeah well... don't worry about it... may actually raise morale around here.
*He wanders off giving Iris privacy.*
*Tb shakes his head at the people wandering all about.*

---
*Carver nods.*
Carver: We are assassins of the god emperor.
*He keeps walking along scanning for hostiles, as the group starts to make their way on the outskirts of the moat surrounding it.*
Emma: Blesssed is is he..

*Iris smiles*
Iris: Well, I'll do my best to help how I can! First though...
*She takes off what little she had on and begins washing off the blood from her now healed wounds in the pool along with just washing up in general as she hasn't been properly clean since she came back*


*Calluna's tongue sticks out as she draws images from her mind that she doesn't know is part of the knowledge imparted into her by her father*
*She's currently drawing Arcanine from Pokemon without knowing what it is*


*Billy looks shocked at the world's destruction*
Billy: W-what happened?!
*Glares at Zoey, now seriously angry*
Billy: I've survived fer over 38,000 years Z, gimme some credit.
*Runs after Zoey, shouting at her*
Billy: I been in places you only seen in your nightmares!
*Curses under his breath and tries to keep up*


*Merg looks at Roland*
Merg: If you don't mind, I'd like a few minutes with her before you end it.
*Her fingers flex over her sword handle eagerly as her eyes betray her cruel intent*


*Thoth floats over the moat and lands in front of the door to the Citadel*
*He presses one hand against the material and attempts to burn a hole through it with magic plasma palms*


*Morgan visits with fam*

*Gharn gives the fam some privacy despite him basically being a part of it now and goes to the kitchen to see if they're hiding any better food somewhere*
*Ransacks the cupboards*


*Black Hawk's watching the Maiev/Kara/Jason exchange while smoking his pipe*
*He gets the feeling he's nowhere near their level of power so he just is content to watch for now*

*Nero looks around the forest*
N: Nothing but blessed.

*Kara nods*
K: Thank you.
*grits her teeth at Jason's last comment*
K: It was my hand that killed her, but not my heart.
But it was your heart that tortured Daveth. Herald, you and I are not so different. Which is why I took you in, and made you as strong as you are now.
*Kara growls slightly and tightens her grip on her staff*

*Wade throws Leo over his shoulders and giggles*
DP: Well, I should probably leave an IOU for Jake, but I'll just chat with him later. We've got some gak to do for now.
*starts walking off, and glances up at Leo*
DP: What do you think about a jetpack? Doctor Octopus arms? Wait, who am I kidding? You'll love 'em.

*The only demons around the forest are skeletons that lost their friends, so they'd be easily dispatched by just about anything*

~

*Tala smiles and stands up*
T: Where?!

~

*Maiev actually picks her words now that she knows Kara is in danger*
M: ...Thank you.

~

*Illidan stands up, and looks around for Mannoroth's skull*
I: Magtheridon was a harder fight than you were.
*He looks*

~

*As I said earlier, the entire citadel is abandoned, apart from a few non-hostile zombies that are performing the menial labour around it*
*The big feth off tower that is in the middle of the camp is where everyone should go*

*Emma's head snaps towards Nero.*
Emma: You worship the emperor to?
*Carver slowly looks at Nero, waiting for his response.*

---
*David keeps walking away.*
David: Yep! Get all that blood off you.
*He sighs, and sits at the edge of the green away from everyone.*

---
*Zoey stops mid stride, turns to billy, and grabs him by the neck.*
Zoey: The feth you just call me? And mother fether I don't have nightmares, nightmares have me.
*All Billy sees is Zoey's helmet, but she pretty mad under there.*
---
*Brunor smiles back slightly.*
Brunor: I'll show you, lets go.. just try to be sneaky.
*Heads off towards the darker recesses of the base.*

---
*Jason nods, gets his gear, and watches Kara carefully.*
Jason: Have no fear, Kara... I guess I could relate in some way... though the hand that guides me is holy.
*Jasons gear is pretty simple it's his normal flak coat, and attire flak vest. But he also has strange cylinder tubes made up of different colored flesh slotted in places on his armor. He also has a ceremonial sword.*
Jason: Now then Shadowsong, lead the way... Unless you feel any other assets besides my assassins could be obtained.

---
*Mannoroths Skull appears to be gone.*

---
*Roland and Jake still making their way to Leo.*
*Roland turns to Merg, and shakes his head.*
Roland: No. I am a gunslinger, not some animal. She will be put down swiftly...
*Jake nods in agreement.*

---
*Cause I didn't have enough characters to write! Eddie meets with a shadowy robbed figure.*
*Though all moderating devices show he is alone.*

*Nero looks over at Emma*
N: I never bought into worshipping any god. Turns out I'm related to one. But if the Emperor can help kill Devils, then he at least deserves praise.

*Kara forces herself to focus on Jason, cause it's hard for her to ignore Lusacan*
K: I used to fight for a holy cause. The Maker was with me when I killed demons. I'd... I'd like to think he's still watching. But I'm not so sure.
The Maker doesn't deserve your praise, Herald. He allows illness, poverty, and slavery. If he was so pure and powerful, you would not have killed your own lover. I would never allow that.

*Billy grins stupidly*
Billy: Z... Fer Zoey yeh? Urk... Sure...thing...Zoey...
*Starts turning purple but doesn't stop grinning*


*Thoth sends out a magic scan for lifesigns*
*Frowns at finding none and blinks away to head towards the tower*


*Merg snarls*
Merg: If she's killed innocent then she deserves to feel every ounce of pain she gave them.
*She sighs*
Merg: But I'll let you do it your way... this time.


*Iris scrubba-dubs without shame of being seen*

*Leo dangles over Wades shoulder*

*Curt walks into the main room*

*Maiev grits her teeth, then shakes her head*
M: Your cutthroats should suffice.
*She then turns, and pulls Kara along while heading towards the cave*
M: I want you to go back to where we came from... I don't trust him.

~

*Denny remains a silent badass*

~

*Tala nods, and follows Brunor, although she really isn't sneaky*

~

*Hakan frowns at Calluna's drawings, then looks at her*
Hakan: Where did you learn to draw these?

~

*The tower doors are closed, waiting for more than one person to get there, cause that'd be anti-climactic as feth*

*Calluna frowns thinking*
Calluna: I... don't know... it just came into my head.


*Thoth begins trying to break into the tower but probs finds the doors sealed by something and starts pacing to figure out what*


*Iris finishes washing up, examines her scraps of clothing critically. decides 'feth it' and tosses them aside as they wouldn't do much anyways. She then goes to look for fruit from a tree or something cause she hungry af*


*Merg is basically doing the same as Denny but with a more maniac glint in her eye*

*Kara turns her head to Maiev and sighs*
K: And how can I trust him with you? If you get hurt, I'd never forgive myself.

*Wade looks up at Leo*
DP: Well, I think we've stayed too long here, don'tcha think? Let's go find ourselves Pavlova.
*giggles and teleports away*

*Emma's head snaps forward, and she twitches slightly.*
Carver: Let's just keep moving inside the base.. think it's empty anyways.
*He starts walking towards the main gates of the citadel, and can just make out Thoths hammering.*

---
*Roland looks at Merg, and shakes his head.*
Roland: Then you are a debased animal like her, and if ever you torture a soul in my presence for nothing more then your petty retribution I will put you down. Such talk is disgusting, let Gan decide the fate of the unworthy.
*He looks over at Jake, barks in high speech, and grabs the butt of his gun.*
*Jake shakes his head, and talks to Roland in a much calmer tone. Roland nods once, then releases his gun.*
*They find Leo missing, and frown.*
Roland: She's alive... somewhere... no matter, I will find her and end her. But first what is wrong with this world?
---
*Jason sighs, and shakes his head.*
Jason: No, I am coming.
*Sighs as he can clearly hear the whispers.*
Jason: Listen you two... If I really wanted to kill you both I would have already, could easily shoot both of you right now. Or inform the elders of you being here, and I'm sure they would help my team kill you. Why would me coming to aid you on some fools errand, which is sure to be a trap bother you so? It makes little to no sense. So please shut the feth up, and lets go kill the dragon.

---
*Zoey eyes burn with rage at Billy's dumb smile, and she lightly backhands him (Which is like getting punched in the face really hard.)
Zoey: Get that fething grin off your face, and don't speak to me at all.
*She starts heading north, trying to comm Santi and Denny.*

----
*Brunor and Tala find Veck's cell, he is guarded by a Vanus agent.*
Vanus: May I help you?

*Nero nods and follows after Carver*
*low key disappointed that there's not any demons around*

*Santiago hears Zoey's comm and walks outside of his room*
S: Zoey, it's Santiago. What's your position?

*Kara growls and bites her tongue to stop herself from snapping at Jason*
K: ...Fine.

*Merg snarls*
Merg: Those who hurt the innocent deserve to be punished! A swift death is too merciful for scum like that!
*She glares at Roland*
Merg: I do what I feel is right. If you think it's fethed up, fine, you're no the first. I don't care. I'll do what I think needs to be done until the day I die.
*She looks at his question*
Merg: You haven't figured it out? The world's ending. Demons, the undead, hordes of them. We and a few others are all that's left...
*Her tone takes on one of bitter frustration and deep sorrow as she thinks of all the innocent souls, butchered by the invaders*


*Billy gets knocked down and spits some blood*
*He mutters under his breath as he staggers to his feet and starts to follow Zoey again*
Billy: Jeez... just tryin' t'be friendly... She needs a major chill pill...


*Iris keeps looking for food*
*She walks over to David and lightly taps him on the shoulder*
Iris: Excuse me, is there anything to eat?
*Smiles cheerily, happy to just be alive and seemingly safe again*

*Roland rounds on Merg.*
Roland: You are misguided soul, who has forgotten the face of your father. Such people like you think you mean well, but are no better then the monsters running around this world. Now be quiet, and thankful that I don't deal you lead and leave you for the carrion birds!
*He gives her a cold stare, before turning back to Jake.*
Jake: My father, Merg.. has tread on many worlds destroyed by all matter of demons... So just saying "Demons and undead," doesn't really help him understand what we are fighting...
*Jake explains in high speech about these demons, and undead. Also explains his lack of sightings of the crimson king or any of the RFs. Roland absorbs the information.*

---
*Zoey ignors Billy, and goes on comm with Santiago.*
Zoey: A couple clicks north of the rooms former location, carrying some dead weight as well so may be some time before I get to your location.

---
*David frowns at Iris, and shrugs.*
David: There is a pear tree close by.
*points in it's general direction.*

*Santiago idly checks his magnum's magazine*
S: I might be able to arrange a vehicle pickup. We're at an Imperial base, most of us managed to get here. Denny included.

*Mergoux doesn't understand what Roland meant and takes it literally*
Mergoux: I can never forget the face of my father....
*Speaks for once in a tone vacant of her usual harshness and instead sounds incredibly sad*
*She sighs*
Merg: I'm not a good person, I'll never say I am. But what I do, is what I feel needs to be done. Like it or not.


*Iris smiles and bows her head*
Iris: Thank you! Oh, I don't believe I ever caught your name.. I am Iris, the Rainbow Goddess.
*Has no shame*


*Billy tries to stop his mouth from bleeding as he chases after Zoey*

*Zoey frowns.*
Zoey: The feth is a imperial? Never mind.. yeah a vehicle pick up would be nice. Eta?

---
Jake: Merg, torturing someone just to torture is fething wrong. The only time torture is necessary is when there could be information to be gleamed, besides that it's just fethed up.
*Jake sighs and also feels a little bad for keeping this subject going considering what happened to him and Denny.*
Jake: Merg.. why don't you just shut the feth up for a bit?
*Roland remains silent, cause he knows what happened to Jake and Denny. AND also has been tortured before.*

---
*David kinda gets the idea, and just stares at the landscape.*
David: Oh, Hi...I'm David... I'm a dreadlord.
*Talks like he is at a AA meeting.*

*Iris nods*
Iris: Well David, it is a pleasure to meet you. Thank you again for helping me!
*She goes over to the pear tree, grabs some pears and starts to eat*


*Merg sighs*
Merg: I see it as what should happen instead of simple imprisonment...
*Gives Jake a look then sighs*
Merg: Fine. Let's just find Leo and put her down.
*Sheathes her sword and begins searching around, using her basic tracking skills to see if she can find anything*

*Maria and Marla are joined by Marilania in the small chapel and keep a eye on her as she somewhat more upset and generally looking after her*

*Marinalia sighs as Marla is hugged by her sister*
Come on... Please just be alive... For Marlas sake.

...

*Furia follows the tracks and does whatever Ra is doing and gets somewhat frustrated by the mad route*
Ga... This man. Mad. Make no sense.

*sits on a rock and shakes head as she looks back down a hillside at the route they took*

Ooc phone is not entirely solid so may go, or not.
I'm gonna have to try and work out a factory reset over the weekend.

*Santiago walks back inside and heads towards Joalia*
S: Should only take a few minutes, depending on the speed of the vehicle.
*closes off the comm for a moment so he can speak to Joalia*
S: I got a message from Zoey, I'll be getting a vehicle to pick her up and bring her here. It won't take long, if everything goes well.
*quickly hugs Joalia and heads outside in search of the assassin's fearless leader*

*Wade didn't give a feth about being sneaky, so he left a trail which heads away in the opposite direction the gunslinger group came from, but eventually just ends without a trace*

*Zoey nods, and stops jogging.*
Zoey: Understood, I'll hold location.
*Quickly kneels, and has her rifle ready.*

---
*Vanus agent appears next to Santiago.*
Vanus: Jason is assignment, but you may speak with George. Follow me.
*He starts to lead Santiago to George.*

---
*David nods.*
David: You're welcome.

---
*Roland already kinda figured out Leo being picked up, and teleported away.*
Roland: As I said we will find her.. maybe not today, but soon.

*Santiago nods to the Vanus, and gets lead to George*
*nods to George when he gets there*
S: I need a vehicle, if you have one to spare. There's a Spartan, Zoey, in the woods. I'd like to rendezvous with her and bring her here.

*Merg tracks Leo as best she can but makes a noise of anger as the trail ends*
Merg: She's gone. No trail I can see.


*Billy sees Zoey stop and flops down out of arms reach of her and sticks two fingers in his mouth*
Billy:You get through to someone?

Ooc night folks. Long ass day and me need zzzz

*Marla gets helped back to her room by her sister and keeps close by*
Marlin... Can you keep a eye on things round here, just keep us in the loop.

*Marinalia nods*
Sure mum. Il tell you if anything big happens. You just worry about Marla.

*heads off to main room and looks for a book, or anything to read, even if its boring*

...

*Curt heads back to his room and hops into bed*

*Morgan, Dria and Gharn walk into the main room and just sit and talk with Maril*


*Iris finishes eating and starts exploring the green as she's really got nothing better to do.*
*Walks around being friendly a smiling to anyone there, not at all bothered by them seeing her in her state of dress. If someone acts uncomfortable about it she smiles to herself and leaves them be, as she's more concerned with their embarrassment than her own*

*Gandrea meditates*

~

*Denny follows along, not really wanting to contribute to the torture conversation cause she can still remember the pain of losing her eye*

~

*The citadel remains closed for a bit longer cause I'm going out to shop for sustenance*

~

*Joal lies in Santiago's assigned room until he returns, cause she's sad*

~

*Tala frowns at the Vanus agent, then looks at Brunor*
T: This the human? Doesn't smell good...

~

*Maiev grits her teeth, then looks at Jason*
M: You... Don't understand. A lot better people than you have tried, including one of your old Master Assassin's. None of you can even get close. Even your primarchs know my name, kid. And if you dare even threaten my Kara again, I will burn the entire Imperium to the ground in a matter of days. I assure you, I will keep my word.
*She bites her tongue to stop her from saying more, but she's pretty sure she's already screwed it*
