OT: Yup. He's reconstituting now.

Sweet, now we can get a headstart on the other two teams.

*Black Hawk shakes his head and follows behind Wade*

Do we know what the weapon will look like? Or are we just gonna hope it's on some fancy looking slab with a sign saying "Really rare weapon. Do not steal"?

Black Hawk: I would expect it to be on a pedestal or something. *Ducks under a scything blade*

*Wakes up, and walks over to Scatty giving her a gentle nudge*

Ready to keep moving?

*Scatty stands up from where she was sitting and unwraps her hands revealing them to be fully healed*
Scatty: Yup. Let's move. *Leads the way through the tunnel directly opposite of the one they first came through*

Great, pedestals. Then we'll have to outrun a giant boulder. Or have a lightsaber duel on top of it, but that'd just be ripping off a trilogy that doesn't deserve the knock off.

Black Hawk: So, just how un-killable are you?

*Takes sling off left arm*

*Flexes it for a moment, then withdraws magnum and spins it in left hand*

*Keeps shadowing Scatty's movement*

Getting cut in half, burned, sent in space, flash frozen, melted, having my head crushed by Hulk, getting impaled, hellfire, and crazy exes haven't killed me yet, and then some neckbeard named Thanos cursed me with eternal life because he had the hots for Death. So, to answer your question, very.

*smiles*

And Wolfy boy, the guy I got my healing factor from, he regrew himself from a point blank nuclear explosion. Probably needed a lot of whiskey to sit through that though. I mean a lot.

*Black Hawk is stunned*
Black Hawk: So I guess there really is no shutting you up...

*Scatty slowly crawls under a series of holes ready to fire darts*
Scatty: We should be getting close now...

*Nods*

Be right behind you..

*Keeps magnums ready*

My ugly mug is here to stay. And did anyone try talkin' to you? I didn't hear anything after Jay wanted to use soap in a very naughty way.

Black Hawk: No. The radio has been silent for a good while. I'll check in.

*Black Hawk has a quick radio conversation with Scatty. *
Black Hawk: She hasn't heard from Billy for hours now. *Looks mildly concerned* and we can't get him to pick up.

Huh, that doesn't sound good. I'm thinking we should probably double time it then. We've been pretty lucky so far, a few spikes and a riddle.

Black Hawk: That's what worries me... very well. Let's move! *Runs forward sprinting through traps*


Scatty: Billy and Jordan haven't checked in in hours... *Looks torn then decides* We move forward. If they don't check in the next few hours then we go back to check on them in person

Understood..

*Gives Scatty's shoulder a light squeeze*

They are fine, we will find them.

Scatty: Probably just forgot... irresponsible cowboy... *So distracted she nearly gets decapitated by another scything blade the shoots out of the wall*

*follows after Black Hawk and dodges through various traps*

I'm thinking there's gonna he a troll at the end. Something big, but kinda fast, ya know? Boss fights are always tricky.

Black Hawk: A troll? We could only hope for something so simple

*Stops Scatty*

Keep your mind off of them.. Stay focused on the task..

*Gives Scatty a nod*

Your lead Dinh..

*Scatty nods and leads on but comes to a stop upon seeing a wood barred gate with a large stone sign on it. The sign reads*
It can be said:
To be gold is to be good;
To be stone is to be nothing;
To be glass is to be fragile;
To be cold is to be cruel.
Unmetaphored, what am I?

Scatty: Wonderful... riddles...

Maybe it's one of the trolls that heal really fast? I don't know, I'm just brainstorming. I'd say it'd be a shadow version of each of us, but you guys already used that trope.

OOC: We did? When?

Black Hawk: Shadow version? When was this?

*Thinks for awhile*

Cort would be laughing at me by now...

*Thinks longer, and longer*

A Heart?

OOC: Yarrick went on a quest for a golden apple (I can't quite remember why), and everyone had a mirror of themselves. IIRC, OT and his mirror went off to play video games and build build up orkmart.

BIC: Awhile ago. I wasn't around at the time, but the dude in the weird hat and metal arm had to get some magic fruit for Amelia.

OOC: OH YEAH! I Remember now! Wonder what I should do with it....

BiC
*The gate swings forward*

Scatty: Well done! Good thing you came along then. Riddles aren't my strong suit.

*Behind the wood gate is a iron gate with a bronze plaque on it. The plaque reads*
Round she is, yet flat as a board
Altar of the Lupine Lords.
Jewel on black velvet, pearl in the sea
Unchanged but e'er changing, eternally.

Scatty: Have at it. I've no idea... *Sits down annoyed*

*Wakes up and gently nudges Billy*

*Covering chest with other arm*

*Still in extreme pain*

C'mon Billy, wake up...

*Maria walks back in with knight, and slim mechadrites resting on her shoulders of her white fur coat*

Hey.. Miss anything. Went kraken watching. *mechadrite pokes out fur and seems to sniff air sensing the room*

Ooc may have doubled that
....
