FFD6 The Dicening, Group 1, Chapter 1, Mission 1 - Page 12

IHateMakingNames · 02-06-2011, 02:51 AM

Apparently, there were issues happening outside of the data room as well. Hundreds of dangerous scenarios went through Kole's mind. he narrowed the likely suspects down to evil wire robots, corpse reanimation, or cultist attack.

It didn't seem wise to leave a single wire left, but Kole figured if it became an issue he could cut it apart when that happens. For now he ran with Bello towards the door.

Run to door.

Riin Whitewind · 02-06-2011, 07:24 PM

Jhennek heard the frantic command from her White Mage friend, but found she couldn't comply just yet. Bello and Kole were still in the room - if she ran now, they'd be stuck behind the zombies without back-up. And that just wouldn't be right!

Shifting her focus away from the zombie she'd blasted before - a sturdy thing, for a corpse! - a stubby finger pointed at the one next to it. As before, shining gold filled her eyes as lightning streaked over her frame, waiting for release.

Cast Thunder on Virulent Zombie A.

DATA STORAGE
Kole, Bello, Jhen, Arden

Letting out a surprisingly powerful kick, Arden's ankle smashes against the skull of the target of her choice, knocking it reeling as well as shattering the wires off her ankle. Unfortunately, it isn't exactly comfortable for her leg.

As Arden regains her footing, she finds a tower of black steel between her and her adversaries. A welcome diversion to be sure, especially as the creatures move to attack their new target. The zombies' attacks remained as clumsy as ever, and were easily sidestepped, but the small bundle of wires proved to be more agile as it leapt from the ground, and quickly squirmed up to the break in armor between Elsa's breast plate and her helmet. She could feel them wrapping about her neck with potentially deadly intent.

In the Data Room proper, Kole and Bello ran to the the door way, a small bundle of wires following close behind. They were persistant little things, if nothing else. They all arrived just in time for the flash of light that followed Jhenneck's calling upon the powers of magic once more, shaping them into a deadly bolt with her mind alone, to much the same effect as before.

SOUTH HALLWAY
Raltz, Ark

Hacking with his blade, Ark slashes a zombie directly in half, two lifeless chunks falling to the ground. Its ally moves in to take its place, but coming from over the android's shoulder is Raltz's blade, piercing it through the eye, leaving it too, to fall onto the ground, returned to the sweet sleep of death.

But the battle was far from over, as another creature moved against the door, and yet more could be seen gathering further away.

Teal Mage · 02-07-2011, 09:12 AM

Her ankle throbbed as she hit the ground; Arden felt her balance slip for an instant. Not good. The mage's eyes flashed toward the Zombies - only to find a tower of black-stained bone armor interposing itself between Arden and the undead menace. "Elsa!" Relief flooded the mage - though it was short lived, as she spied motion from the Living Wire the undead had spawned earlier.

"Look ou-" Arden's warning came a second too late, as the device found its way past Elsa's armored case. The White growled again, pupils dilating to slits. "Sorry about this!" She leveled her gun at her ally's wire-coated neck. "I'll heal you right away, I promise!"

Gunfire erupted.

It was a good thing bronze bullets sucked at penetrating skin.

"'ware the doors!" Arden shouted over her shoulder, toward where her allies would be gathering. "There was an Undead with a sword in there when we left!"

Menarker · 02-07-2011, 12:11 PM

Jugan jumped up and down excitably as Ark and Raltz both made their respective smelly mean bullies fall to the floor in dead clumps!

Ark readied his blade as more zombies approached.

"EVIDENCE OBSERVED!

PRIOR VISUAL DATA RETRIEVED: UNALTERED CORPSES COMPROMISE THE LARGEST PROPORTIONS OF ENEMY FORCES.
NEW PROPOSED PLAN: EXTERMINATE UNALTERED CORPSES.

Ark swung his blade once again, as his calcuating mentality steered his arm's motor coordination to repeat the performance of the prior attack that had been successful seconds ago.

mauve · 02-07-2011, 03:28 PM

Elsa barreled through the growing crowd of zombies, aiming for the White Mage's attackers. If Arden fell, their group was out of a healer. If they lost their healer, there was no one to keep Elsa from dying. And if Elsa died, she couldn't get paid. Elsa liked money almost as much as she liked killing things. Therefore, keeping Arden alive was now a priority.

Oh yeah, and those other folks on her team too, she guessed.

The armor-clad woman slid to a halt between Arden and the attacking horde, easily dodging their clumsy attacks. Her face erupted into a wicked grin as her grip tightened on the scythe's haft.

"Come and fight me!" she roared. "I'll--Acckhh!" A flash of silver from her left, the sound of steel scraping armor, and Elsa felt something wrap around her throat. One hand flew to her neck as she staggered backwards, feeling her breath being cut off by steel wires wrapping tighter around her throat. Well, this wasn't going well.

"Sorry about this!"

Elsa heard the White Mage offer an apology. Uh oh. Elsa was getting killed and the resident healer was apologizing for something. This did not bode well.

The Dark Knight turned just in time to see the Mage level a gun at her.

FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU----

-------

Defend, I guess?

Riin Whitewind · 02-08-2011, 01:13 AM

Copper-colored curls bristling with static, the young Black Mage looked a sight. Panting, one hand clutched to her chest, Jhen let her arm fall to her side with a jingle of bracelets. Throwing lightning took a toll on her, but didn't seem to faze either of her targets - and more could be seen clambering to join them.

We should go find Ark and Raltz... Fretting wasn't going to do any of them any good, but she couldn't help feel a twinge of worry. If the five of them were having trouble, the duo couldn't be much better off. They didn't have her there providing artillery, after all!

Raising her arm again, lightning once again filling the air with the scent of ozone, she pointed a finger at one of the injured zombies. If they couldn't find a path, she'd blast one open for them.

Of course, she watched where Elsa and Arden were very carefully! It wouldn't do to accidentally hit them, that would be very painful. Friends don't strike friends! But... What was Arden doing? Why was she sorry?

Agast, the Tarut watched as Arden leveled her gun at her Black Knight friend. Jhen's finger shifted - from the zombie. To Arden. To the zombie. To Arden. She couldn't just let Arden fire at her friend! But she was a friend, too!

Dropping her arm again, the light and charge of lightning fading away to nothing, Jhennek carefully ran towards the pair. She couldn't bring herself to fire at her friend! But maybe she could go see what would cause such a horrible darkening of heart in the White Mage.

As she moved around the mechanized corpses attempting to close in on her, Jhen took a moment to examine them. A pity she didn't have more time! Though, she had so many questions, could time really answer them all? Reanimation sounded like an enlightening experience, at the least!

Escape from mooks, to head towards Elsa/Arden, a bit past them if possible.

IHateMakingNames · 02-08-2011, 01:35 AM

Kole's retreat to the door revealed the threat his party faced. Cyborg zombies. All those bodies had to do something. And those of those corpses were standing near the little black mage. Kole prepared to cut one of the zombies in half, but then Jhen took off running again. Not wanting to waste any valuable retreating time, he ran off after the little girl and towards the cat fight with the other women in his party.

Run down hallway.

phil_ · 02-08-2011, 02:08 AM

Not wanting to be left behind in this strange new world of zombies and mega-zombie, Bello hustled along with Kole to join Arden and Elsa's little love-in with the wires.

Kole, Bello, Jhen, Arden

Raising her gun uncomfortably the white mage fired off an amazingly controlled shot, skimming by Elsa's skin and blasting off the collection of wires with not more than a mere scratch appearing from the passing bullet. The two didn't have long to rest however, as Elsa was forced to sidestep attacks from the pair of zombies that had followed her from the last room, and the Taruts and Blue Mage came running in, with their own set of zombies (and another bundle of wires following.)

This seemed to be the least of their problems, however, as the two more altered corpses' arms began to ripple and pulse once more, this time with one pointing toward Jhennek and the other toward Elsa. Behind them, more walking corpses spilled from the necroreanimation chamber.

They say that a sign of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different circumstances. The logical inverse of this statement was proven true as Ark swung his blade in exactly the same way, and cut down another zombie in much the same manner.

Meanwhile, Raltz called upon the powers of holy in this dark place to burn the flesh of the more altered zombie, hoping to weaken it before it could come too close, though it did little to slow it as it continued to advance with its allies.
