"That is an assuredly swell blatant plagiarism I'm sure. But first, I must GOOOO and smite Santa, ONCE MORE! For good this time!"

Keyman somehow managed to pick up all three Newb artifacts without encountering any further problems... which was odd, really. Holding the headband, handle, and gem all at once should have triggered an artifact fusion, not to mention the fact that Wizzle had picked up two of them... and still had those, in fact.

Keyman peered at the Headband in confusion for a full minute, only to have it blow up in his face. More rainbow effects spread across his body, and shortly afterwards the Handle shuddered and turned into a set of manacles which bound him before the chain snapped, leaving him with a pair of spiffy armbands, and that's around when the gem fragmented, each shard catching a different color, and sinking into his skin as that color swept across his body.

As the ripples finally ended, Keydog blinked.

Wait... Keydog?

Keyman seemed to have turned into a puppy in the confusion somehow.

...

It rather suited him, actually.

"Well, since you're all just rarin' to go," Rei addressed the collected NPFers, "We might as well run through the plan. The Doukhobor Laboratories layout is pretty basic. One floor, mostly straight path through their offices to Doug's office, where we're most likely to find him, Pe-chan, and whatever tricky trap-like trickery else that's waiting for us. Defenses should be fairly average to what you're used to so far..."

Walking over to the item table, Rei spotted a small golden ring with a round gem set within that bore a little red heart-shaped insignia and picked it up. Looking the Heart Ring over, the android placed it on the gloved ring finger of her left hand.

You know it won't work for you, right? It's not attuned for anything but humans.

Rei nodded in response to Anima's telepathic comment and shrugged, returning to her exposition to the group. "If you haven't noticed by now, not everyone's made it back. Most notably, Phoenix and P-Bot have returned to the Isparalian to work on repairs to the battledroid and formulate a back up plan in case things go all superbad."

A hyperlink portal flashed into existence behind her, into which she began to leap after giving a quick wink to the group. "To infinity....."

On the other side of the portal, the front of Doukhobor Labs looked more forboding than a single-floor office complex of its nature should. It seemed altogether normal, of course, aside from the glass doors that had originally been electronically locked tight by the building's security system laid broken on the sidewalk, having been flung backward after being ripped out of the frame.

Also, there was a sleigh with eight reindeer parked across three handicapped spaces.

"Hey Rei....why do you call Pedro Pe-chan when 'Chan' is known as a moniker for a girl in Japan?" I asked her, picking up the rifle and putting it away. I looked at the raindeer after going though the portal, then said "Vensin anyone?"

"It's actually an identification coding error resulting from a minor fragmentation that occured while my program was dormant in the old Mashirosen Tower's main computer, and we've unfortunately been unable to localize it yet," Rei answered Flare frankly once they reached the other side of the portal, "And as for the reindeer, it might be best to leave them alone. They won't attack until provoked and the last thing we need is eight magical reindeer fighting us along with the larger power level that I'm reading moving toward us..."

"FLUFFIES!" Keydog shouted as he bounded towards the handicapped spot.

Moments later, Keydog was dangling from a reindeer's neck in what seemed to be an attempt by a small creature to hug a large one, and seemed to be... nuzzling the reindeer while making happy-noises?

When there was no response from FenrisWolf and after the welcome appearence of a fourth Wizzle of an orange hue, the three Wizzles decided to put the gem, or rather gems which seemed to have multiplied after the creations of Wizzle Red, Wizzle Blue, and Wizzle Purple, to use. In unison, simply because it's much easier that way, the three Wizzles pointed the gems at Nikose and started the copycatting of Nikose's regenerative ability.

A short while later, the three differently colored cat mages emerged on the other side of the portal to see a parking lot where a sleigh with reindeer attached happened to be parked. There was also a smaller figure interacting with one of the reindeer.

"Please tell me that-" "-he's not doing what-" "-we think he's doing."

K36 stepped through the portal, immediately noticing reindeer "Triple parking?! in the HANDICAPPED SPOTS?! Now it's personal!"

He flipped safety off for his assault rifle and started marching towards the doors, turning back to say "I'll do some scouting, If I run into trouble I'll start shooting bullets at things. I'm sure you'll hear it."

***Fenris*** · 08-24-2007, 12:15 AM

Fenris mimicked the other NPFers and entered yet another portal. He reached behind his back, between it and the Beluga Sturgeon. Pullling out a walleye, he stuck it in santa's Sleigh, where it flopped around joyously.

And then it died of suffocation.

PyrosNine · 08-24-2007, 12:49 AM

"Ha! Triple parked in Handicapped parking? That means he's triply handicapped, or he WILL BE! Am I rite?" Pyros lamely joked as he sharpened his blade in anticipation.

"Well guys, I don't know what sort of powers an evil Alternate Santa would have, but I think a good heads up would be to avoid anything white and red. Including Santa, cuz I'm gonna go all out on his ass and damn the forumite who gets in front of a flame cannon. But that said, much love and hugs, and I hope a good 45% of you survive."
