Lisa: Oh...I'm sorry, I had no idea...

*Awkwardly sips coffee*

*Ot's effectiveness is dampened by the Guardian Blade he's unused to. The Anpu fight like nothing else, actually landing minor hits against in the melee.
Perenelle has pulled out a whip made of snakes and every Anpu she hits turns to stone
Billy and Black Hawk each take turns reloading and firing
Francis is raining fire from the sky as Machiavelli summons a Earth Tulpa. A crude man shaped being of earth rises from the grounds and begins crushing Anpu. The Anpu's weapon's have little to no effect on the earth creature.*

*shakes head*
It's alright. You had no way of knowing, and it happened a very, very long time ago.
About 38,000 years ago.

*Shaper waves a hooked hand at an Anpu and it falls over as it's blood boils*

*Wade is laughing at the Anpu as he fights*
*A blade catches Wade in the stomach and he growls*
DP: You are a very bad boy!

*Lisa looks slightly confused*

Lisa: Oh...I take it you've done some time-traveling then?

*Looks interested*

*Quetz belches fire torching a dozen Anpu around Xolotl but the Dark Elder remains unharmed as he hurls a fireball at Quetz. Quetz knocks it aside with a wind blast as Black Hawk is forced to engage in melee to defend Billy as the Kid reloads another gun*

*nods*
I was a part of the UNSC, which was slightly like your Imperium, in a way. We were fighting off the covenant, an alien empire that wanted to kill us for their religion.
*sighs again*
After watching my squad die one by one, I put myself in stasis and was set adrift across space. I planned on meeting UNSC territory again, but I landed here instead.

*Roland keeps blasting away at Anpu*

*He climbs up, a mound of corpses and tries to put a couple rounds in Xolotl.*

Feth it. Not like anyone's going to answer me.
*Begins chanting in an alien language*
[So that all deeds must be repaid
I call upon thee
Yog-Sothoth, Great Intelligence
Nex-, Universe...]

*Xolotl sees Roland again*
Xolotl: Stubborn Humani! *Moves to set Roland on fire but gets hit by Quetz's tail and his sent into the air*
Quetz: ROLAND! PULL!

*An Anpu sees Verv just standing there and moves to put a sword in his gut*

*The Elders are beginning to weaken against the overwhelming number of highly skilled combatants*

*Roland begins blasting at Xolotl putting thirty rounds in his lupine head.*

*He then parries a few attacks from the Anpu with his magnums*

*Wade fights his way towards BH and Billy*
DP: Nice seeing you guys again! And the weather is absolutely beautiful!

*Shaper continues parrying strikes and is fighting the Anpu with a mixture of staff and psychic powers*

*Xolotl's head is blown apart. The Anpu see this and start faltering in fear as their master is slain*

*Rolls backwards out of the way, still chanting*
[Ouranous, Nar-iy
I summon thee for collection
Of the deed I have done
For thee. Come prepared, without...]

Lisa: You put yourself in stasis...For 38,000 years? God...I can't imagine what that would be like...We can change the topic, if you want...

*Joalia walks in and tugs at Santiago's clothes*

*Points at the chaos outside*

~

*Jordan is standing in the middle of two dozen de-limbed dog-man bodies*

*Eyes have a slight red tinge to them*

*Unharmed*

*Sees the corpse of Xolotl and halts*
It's official. I'm never going to use that bloody Invocation.

OOC: Goodnight

OOC Night V.

*shrugs*
It wa-
*looks outside and stands up, knocking his chair over*
Lisa, I'm sorry but my friends need help.

*Shaper takes advantage of their surprise and downs several other Anpu*

*Wade swears madly as he starts getting hit more and more*

OOC: Night V.

*The Anpu break and start running away. OT is as usual unharmed as is Aoife. Ra his bleeding from over 2 dozen minor wounds while Horus and Huitz have only suffered scratches
Quetz has arrows poking out of him and several bad burns but doesn't seem seriously harmed. Black Hawk is holding a badly slashed arm and letting Cal treat it.
Shakespeare is on the ground gripping a arrow in his leg.
Machiavelli has a scratch on his forehead and Perenelle is binding a cut on her hand
Morrigan is still absent as Billy waves to Jordan also unharmed. *

OT: Everyone alright?
Cal: Black Hawk is out, he needs to stay back for now. *Black Hawk is gritting his teeth as Cal treats the deep cut*

Quetz: Nice shooting Roland
OT: Indeed. That's the Anpu outof the picture... what I wonder what now approaches...
OOC: Night V

Where's Morrigan? I didn't see her at the start...

*Wiping blood off blade on a body*

*Looks at Wade*

27.

~

*Lisa nods*

Lisa: I'll help if I can.

OT: I gave her a special assignment. She'll be there when we need her. Everyone back to the line, I'm not sure what's coming next.

*Shaper watches the Anpu flee and growls*
Boran: Better to die with wounds to tell front than to the back.
*two of the closest Anpu fall to the ground as their necks are snapped out of thin air*
*Shaper is paler and leans on his staff to catch his breath*
Boran: I may have overdone it with that last attack. But it was worth it.

*Wade shivers as all of his wounds seal*
DP: What's next? And 27 what?

*Santiago hands Lisa an assault rifle he grabbed from OT's armory*
Let's go then.
*walks towards OT and Co*

*Roland refills ammo*

Roland: Thankee Quetz..

OOC: Night V

Okay...

*Walks over to Billy*

What tells me that that was the easy bit?

*Looks over at DP and smiles*

27 is my score.
~

*Joalia looks at the finished battle*

*Looks happy and runs up to the bodies*

*Starts eating them*

Ot: My guess? Jordan's specialty. Monsters

Billy: Because that was the easy bit... *Looks over at Black Hawk who waves weakly as Cal finishes on his arm and moves over to Quetz*

*Shaper nods approvingly at Joalia*
Clever girl.
*Shaper stoops down and starts chewing on an Anpu*

*Wade smiles*
DP: Ain't bad. 29 on my part. Let's see if you can catch up with the monstahs, and live up to your name. Or I'll write a complaint to Capcom that you're faulty.

*Santiago draws his rifle*
Santiago: I'm sorry I'm late. I got... occupied elsewhere.

No way! That's a fething load of BS!

*Smiling while ranting*

What's a Capcom?

*Roland lights another cigarette*

*He looks down at his duster with loss*

Roland: I liked that duster...

*A earsplitting set of roars comes from the forest as trees are shattered and thrown*
Billy: I think you may have more fun with this. *Cocks repeater as Horus rolls his shoulders and readies a grapple hook*

Big monster?

*Looks at OT*

Big monster?

*Looks at Horus*

BIG MONSTER?!

~

*Lisa is standing beside Santiago with a rifle slung over shoulder*

Lisa: I guess I can help.

Ooc: What'd I miss this time?
