Started by Lana66 pages

"The sky is being weird..." San comments to no one in particular while she keeps on running from the sentinels.

Muzzle flash; bunch of rocks near Mors.

heph, a group of four spiders is coming over to eat you.

"Um, Mors? Hello?" Heph says, sprawled on the ground. He rolls himself over with great effort, only to see that he's about to be devoured. "Hey Mors! Get up! Earth to First Officer Mors!"

Mors lays sprawled out on the hard-packed earth of the mountainous terrain, his mind addled by the sudden and crushing betrayal of his cell phone.

"Shit."

Klez dashes over to Mors to see what the hell is going on and who the shooters are. As he moves, he snaps out his cell.

"Finn, tell the others what you told me. I can't get them in hearing range."

Melis, struggling to keep ahead of the beasts, sees her lover turning to run back.

Klez, what the hell are you doing?! she ponders furiously, but does not turn back, knowing that it would mean death for her and Hawk if she did.

"Captain Marduk?" she calls out, continuing her stride.

Melis, you try to run over, but you've forgotten how your legs work, or how many you have, and fall over into a particularly animated bush which is trying to crawl all over you.

-

Finn is already busy trying to call others, but it is a particularly chaotic situation.

-

Heph, there is a metallic shing!, and the soft noises of two of the spiders being cut down.

Burn is basically thinking.
Ow..
And what the f*ck. right about now.

Berserker being dragged by Azrael looks around at just what is happening.

Melis will struggle to bat the animated bush of death off with her staff...which will probably turn into a snake and bite her, if she's lucky.

Heph looks for the source of said sound.

Actually, Burn, you are looking at the needle in your chest and thinking "... shit."

Is that a staff or your spine, Melis?

---

There is a man dressed in green standing over you, Heph.

Hey guys, I bet I know what this ultimately is...

Combat/Philo split!

"Uh..." Heph says, looking up at the man. "Hi?"

More than just green, heph. His face is veiled by a mosquito net hanging from his hat.

What about me?

Heph blinks.

"Um..."

The key!

Beautiful girl has you just fine, Melkor!

---

The other two spiders come your way, Heph. The figure turns and spins, twirling his twin machetes around, and cutting them both down.

Klez, you are heading over. Last time you saw that guy you poured more ammo than you can count into him.

Melis will continue to wrestle with her spine.
