*Grits teeth and soldiers on*

C'mon, the others should be nearish...

I'm... honestly not sure. Perhaps there is sensitive equipment that would be rendered nonfunctional by heat?

[Yarrick considers] Or... Perhaps warmth isn't needed. Creatures need warmth. AI doesn't.

Rendered non functional... *space wolf with group hefts a thunder hammer...*

Let's test that....

*Blinks rapidly*

Slap me or something...I'm finding it hard to stay awake...

*Tilting to the side*

But then... Why is there oxygen on the ship?
*Disturbed expression*
Be on the lookout. Do you have a rebreather handy?

[Yarrick shrugs] ...I don't need to breathe. But I don't doubt everyone else does. Hm.
If I remember... sound needs gas to pass through?


[Benny jostles Amelia] C'mon, eyes open! This place is getting colder, that should wake you up at least.

*Despite the cold, Amelia's eyes continue to close*

Mmm waake me up laterrr...

We have helmets and fully sealed armour. Should worst happen.. Fully heated. We are used to cold anyway...

*oddly, the atmosphere here seems clean. Low toxin count.

[Stumbles under the slowly increasing weight]: Not here, come on... Not here. [Sweating somewhat despite the cold] I need someone I know, this is not a good place for me.
[Falls flat as Amelia stops walking] Oh hell. Oh hell...

*Stops to give Benny a hand*
What's going on? Is there an issue?
*Very faint, distant sound of flowing liquid*

This place smells odd....

If this gets worse... We will go ahead and take out the source. We will destroy it.

*charging power weaponry *

...Amelia's losing consciousness even though we stopped her bleeding. [Sits her up against a wall]

[Yarrick races over]: What the hell, Bennett! You own a vox for this reason.

*Sound of liquid getting louder*
I have adrenol shots if she needs one. At the absolute worst case scenario, I can teleport her back to the shuttle and have the autodoc work on her.
*Pauses for a moment*
This whole situation makes no sense. We have seen, what, two defense constructs, and one drone. What the hell is going on here?

The auto doc is oneline. Marla did us a good job with that.

We are taking point on this one. * all lock helmets, draw weapons and advance pushing v aside* your a civilian.. Professionals job.

*After 3 volleys the arrows stop. Ra and Horus are both breathing heavily and much of the the forest in front of them is in smouldering ruin from Quetz's fire breathing.*

Horus: Is it over?

*Suddenly a piercing howl echos from the woods*

Ra: It's only just begun...

*Emerging from the from the trees comes a horde of half-wolf-half-man monsters wielding weapons from throughout history. Wolvens in tattered Roman uniforms or marked with the blue paint of Celts. Swords, spears, axes and clubs along with a range of bows make up their armaments*

Ra: The wild hunt has shown itself. Now we must show it what we are made of! YAAAA!

*Screaming warcries Ra and Horus charge the Wolven while Quetz swoops down to wreak havoc with his claws*

*Deaths scythe grows in size*

*She clicks her fingers and the three gods are teleported behind her*

You might not want to be in the firing line of this.

*Sweeps scythe through the air*

*Wolvens keep coming*

*The majority of them, along with the majority of the remaining forest, are cleaved in half*

*Falls to one knee and pants*

I haven't...Done that...In ages...

*Gets struck in shoulder by a stray arrow*

*Amelia starts sweating more*

*space wolves vanish off ahead, sounds a brutal battle and flying chunks of servitors*

*shouts *
Clear. Tango down. V you may wanna look at this.. Odd. . There nor normal servitors..

Of course they aren't. This place isn't even supposed to have any... The Mechanicus never managed to get into this part of the ship.
*The sound of flowing liquid is now evident to everyone*

OOC: Vanden that reminds me of a clip from a anime I can't find. One guy chops down a whole forest with a swing if his sword. Anime was Seven Deady Sins but I can't find the clip on youtube.

BiC:

*The three watch in awe as so many of the hunt are killed instantly. After being killed the wolven revert back to the humani they once were. Mongol Warriors, Native American fighters, Viking raiders and Christian Crusaders are among the thousands of different people. They begin crumbling to dust but not before everyone notices the looks of relief on their faces*

Quetz: I hope OT wasn't in the line of fire

*A distant roaring makes everyone turn*

Horus: Is that... Cernunnos?

OOC Happens in a lot of anime I think. It just happened in the episode I'm watching of One Punch Man.

Bic *Death is still on her knees*

*Puts one bony hand on the ground and it instantly turns black*

*The entire forest, wildlife, and remains of the Wolven get absorbed*

*Death stands up and her scythe becomes normal sized, which she uses as a support*

Best we get going then hmm?

*Death starts walking towards the roaring*

[Yarrick crouches beside Amelia] What happened?
[Takes her hand] Amelia? You can't rest here. It's not safe.

*Amelia weakly opens her eyes*

Infiltration...Didn't go...As planned...And Benny saved me...

*Eyes roll backwards*

*space wolf towers over v*

Not suposed. So there new.... What else did you forget to tell us?

*The group continues through the woods coming upon a new clearing. Trees had been blasted away in a large area where this

and OT are dueling. Cernunnos is merely scratched while OT is bleeding and obviously tired*

*Raises hands to placate the Wolves*
I do not know. I have almost no intel on this place. All I know is that something is extremely off about this entire situation.

*Death fazes out of time and reappears infront of Cernunnos*

*Blocks arm with the pommel of the scythe*

*Braces and stops other arm with hand*

*Grunts and calls out to the gods*

Death: Get Nicholas. I'll hold this one back as long as I can.

*grumbles* least that's honest. *smashing sound and small explosion * that be secondly control offline....

Everything is scrap metal..that should hurt these... Things. . Coordination. Ok. So next o that flowing liquid sound ?

Anything of that nature on original ships plan?

OOC: Forgot to mention, but Cernunnos is armed with a massive bow and a giant two-handed sword

*In a surprisingly soft voice Cernunnos laughs at Death and the Elders*

Cernunnos: You think you can kill me? I am ancient belong knowing!

*Cernunnos swings his blade knocking Death's scythe from her hands*

Cernunnos: Now die!

*Drop of liquid lands on my head, burning my hair slightly*
Run like hell.
*A bulkhead at the end of the hallway begins bulging*
