**Buttery Commissar**

[Commissar looks startled] I'm glad I didn't use my finger, then.

[Activates power sword and slashes at anything getting too close] [Runs with the group]

**2BlackJack1**

*nods and squeezes Maiev's hand back*
*keeps leading the group along and pauses when a massive door comes in sight with two golems standing in front of it, both having runes across their body and are completely still*

*Ali whistles*
Ali: Either they need a trigger, or they're dead. You think sloth demons like lawn ornaments?

*Wade nods*
DP: Uno momento, por favor.
*pulls out an EMP grenade and tosses it at wherever the robots are coming from*
DP: Ok, let's go.
*chases after Jake*

**Sgt. Vanden**

*Doesn't notice Gharn's ear drop, and keeps walking*
*Stops behind Kara*

~

*Maiev tilts her head at the Golems*
M: Where do we go now?

**Buttery Commissar**

[Sebastian holds out his arms] I had knives at that age! Nobody cared! That's sexist as heck-
[Slow realisation] Ohhh....

**zombiekila707**

*Rita notices Gharn's ears drop.*
Rita: Hey you alright? She is just trying to help.
*She pats him on the shoulder as they walk along.*
Rita: Don't take it the wrong way... *Looks at the golems.* What the feth are those?

----
*The robots in the emp blast zone seizure for a moment, then violently explode. *
*Jake quickly climbs the stairs until finally reaching the second level. As the group enters the second level a lone figure in a red cloak stands in the center of the empty floor. His face is cast in shadow, and eight spider limbs seem to have sprouted from his back.*
Figure: Hello...Jake of New York, Son of Roland of Gilead.. You have traveled far.. Dakva is waiting.
*Jake takes no time in shooting at the figure.*
*The figure laughs, and with unnatural speed walks to the group.*

**Overlord Thraka**

*Gharn looks down at Rita*
Gharn: ...? Oh... I'm being foolish, nevermind.
*Gharn's ears perk up as he puts a hand on the hilt of his sword and narrows his eyes at the golems*

*Billy continues after Jake, still shooting at what bots remain then turns and empties his pistol at the figure*

**Buttery Commissar**

[Commissar holds his sword out again, the blade flickers with blue energy] [Levels it at the figure] Get the Feth away.

**2BlackJack1**

Golems, it looks like. My main worry is if they're active or not.
*stares at the golems while frowning*

*Aerin makes a coughing noise and nods to his crossbow before nodding at the golems*
*Ali smirks*
Ali: Well, that's an idea.

*Wade aims his pistol at the figure and fires a round at it*
DP: Feth you, and your monologue.

**Sgt. Vanden**

*Turns around and frowns at Gharn and Rita*
What is wrong?

~

*Maiev shrugs, and looks at Kara*
M: Your choice how we deal with this.

**zombiekila707**

Rita: Nothing is wrong Izriel, let's focus on the mission.
*Rita sighs, and pulls out her grenade launcher.*
Rita: I can blow them apart with this... or my firestar..
*She shrugs.*
---

*The figure sends a energy pulse at Jake sending him flying, he crashes hard against the wall.*
Figure: You have all come to your dooms... following this boy was a fatal mistake.
*The figure bleeds from multiple wounds, yet he stands unperturbed.*
*He slashes at the commissar in one quick motion with his bladed spider limbs, then slashes again this time at Deadpool.*

**War Kitten**

OOC:
Half contemplating having a new character show up where you guys are so I have something to do, just finished studying for my second-to-last final

**Sgt. Vanden**

*Pouts slightly, then looks at the golems*
...Okay.

~

*Amelia turns to Yarrick slowly, facepalms, then continues walking*

**Buttery Commissar**

ooc: Well you gonna have to either go through Thoth's portal or explain why a medieval knight is in a post-apocalyptic city.
And then not bail out on us like you did with the last off-planet thing.

**War Kitten**

OOC:
I have no excuse for that really, I'm sorry.

**2BlackJack1**

I don't know if shooting it will work. Golems are... picky with what sets them off. It might be set to the doors. Aerin, if you want to shoot one, you can. But don't be surprised if it doesn't do anything.

*Aerin nods and raises the crossbow before firing*
*bolt round skims the top of the golem on the right, but does little else*
*Aerin shrugs and reloads the crossbow*

*Kara frowns*
K: I guess we try the doors. But be ready for two golems trying to rip you in half.

*Wade teleports to the side and draws his katana with his free hand while still firing at the creature*
DP: Shoulda brought some Raid.

**Buttery Commissar**

[Commissar throws up a block, for one of the blades] [Is swiped with a second] F-fff. [Grits teeth and pushes back with some force] [Raises his bolt pistol and fires towards the figure's chest]

ooc: No worries dude, just use the door, so to speak.

**War Kitten**

OOC:
So is the portal still active to begin with? Want to make sure before I get going

**zombiekila707**

Rita: See what this does.
*Rita fires three grenades at the golem, which explode on impact.*

-----
*Jake slowly begins to rise to his feet.*
*The figure makes no attempt to block Deadpools attack, or avoid the bolt shells. Black ichor splashes all over the floor... yet he stands.*
*Figure laughs, and sends a kinetic blast at Deadpools chest. He then turns towards the Commissar, his spider limbs quivering.*

OOC: I can roll you in after this fight, it will be crazy for him to go through the portal, run through the city, and find the tower they are in. Better for me just to put you in after fight, I figure it out.

**War Kitten**

OOC:
Alright. I'll be sorting out my other 3 characters locations then. Thank you.

**Buttery Commissar**

[Yarrick looks embarrassed] I forgot that-
I went for the most complicated reason possible. [Hangs head]

[Commissar fires again] Stop making me waste ammunition and just die! [Swings the sword around and stabs towards chest height]

**2BlackJack1**

*the golem Rita hits shutters as the front layer of it gets hit*
*immediately, the second golem raises it's head and hurls a fireball at the group*

*Kara's eyes widen and she pulls Maiev to the side as the golem comes to life*
*Ali curses violently and wards himself with an arcane shield (shiny bubble)*
*Ramsey utters a litany and charges at the golem*

*Wade gets launched backwards and manages to flip onto his feet, albeit skimming along the ground*
DP: Fus Ro Dah? Really?
*holsters his pistol to draw a second katana before charging at the figure*

**Sgt. Vanden**

*Flies towards the golem that Rita isn't shooting*
*Tries stabbing it*

~

*Maiev tries covering Kara with her body to protect her*

~

*Amelia nods*
Amy: Yeah, good job.

**zombiekila707**

*Rita grapples to the side, avoiding the fire ball.*
*She keeps firing at the Golem.*

----
*The figure yet again makes no attempt to block the commissars slash. Black ichor sprays from his side.*
Figure: Die? I think not..
*He sends a flurry of attacks at the Commissar, then sends a bolt of energy towards Deadpool.*
*Jake gets up, and begins firing at the creatures face.*

**Overlord Thraka**

*Billy leaps back, shield still out and sprays the monster with gunfire aimed towards it's eyes and head*

*Gharn barely dodging the fireball himself*

**War Kitten**

OOC:
Gonna have to call it a night in about 2 hours, I have another final early tomorrow morning

**Buttery Commissar**

[Commissar struggles to block the attacks but does his damnedest] What unholy fethpit spawned you?
[Fires again into the shape, while falling back]

**Verviedi**

Anomaly! GL-class!
*The Agents retreat behind the shield to create a plan of engagement*
*Novus Mattherson gets hit by a lucky fireball that completely annihilates his head and upper torso*
*The body collapses, and Whitakker drags it behind the Ali's shield*
Scavenge ammo. Kinetics.

**2BlackJack1**

*closes her eyes and makes sure Maiev isn't facing the flames*
*Aerin attempts to dodge the hit but gets hit in the side and falls to the ground*
*Ali continues to curse and starts launching balls of energy at the golem, to little effect*

*Inferno Golem swats a hand at Izriel and opens itself up for a stab in return (it's fairly slow)*

*Wade gets hit with the energy and staggers backwards from the force*
DP: Mother fether!
*throws his katana at the figure*

**War Kitten**

*Milo is sleeping in his office*
*Andrea is handling the medbay night shift*
*Athena is taking a nap on the couch*

**zombiekila707**

*Rita keeps up the fire, looking worriedly at Izriel.*

-----
*The creatures head disintegrates from the small arms fire,he tries to gurgle some words but is silenced by Deadpools Katanas.*
*He slumps to his knees, and literally dissolves into a mass of spiders. The spiders scatter.*
*Jake blasts some of the spiders, then turns to the group.*
Jake: Anyone hurt? *Watches some of the retreating spiders.* ... We need to keep moving.
*Jake has a slight limp with his bruised back.*
