NPF Avatars: Because They All Hate Me - Page 6

It came out of nowhere, the large hammer slamming into Melfice. Arhra stood there, grasping its long haft firmly in both hands and glaring at Melfice. "I'm Arhra you fool." she said, anger, frustration and a touch of embarrassment colouring her voice.

Heading off the obvious question about where the hammer had come from, she hefted the hammer and continued, "I'm female now remember. I don't quite understand the details myself, although involves something called Hammerspace I think." She lowered the hammer and gave Melfice another glance.

The moment over, Arhra turned away and sauntered over to one of the few non-slimy patches of wall. She propped the hammer against it and then leaned back on the cave wall, considering her current situation. She grabbed a handful of her auburn hair and watched it slide through her grasp, musing to herself, "Its been quite a while since I was last a redhead..."

Darkness... All was dark, there was no light, not even a shadow. In this non-existant place OmniShadows mind had retreated the moment his materialized body had been scattered by the sudden blast of light, if he had been prepared he could have protected himself. But he simply had not had the time, as well as the place had been dark alredy which gave the sudden light a stronger effect on his body. Even though he had no trouble of seeing in the dark as if it was day he could never grasp the surroundings of the place which he, or atleast part of him, escaped to when he was scattered.

His only guess as to what it was would be the void, of which he was both the master and the slave. Knowing that returning imidately would just result in being dragged back again he waited to regain some of his power before he started re-building his broken body. Taking the sword would be the first thing he would do once he had "escaped" the place. 'Damn its lonely in here...' He thought shortly after thinking through what he should do. He started gathering the darkness from the empty space onto himself, and slowly his new manifestation became complete.

At the word of retreat, Toastburner once more took to the air. Toxic smoke stung his eyes and made him wish he hadn't had eggs for breakfast, but he managed to hold it in.

He made it over the mass of baddies before he couldn't take it anymore. He hit the ground hard, taking a breath of (purely relatively) clean air. He looked up, and saw GARUD and Ecurt.

"Shouldn't you be, well, you know...running?" Toastburner asked as he climbed to his feet. Following his own advice, he hoofed it down the cave, following the others.

"Splitting up might be a good idea," Mauve agreed with Melfice, "As long as Rhiya thinks it's okay. I mean, she knows this place better than any of us. But if we're truly lost here, I think we've got better chances of finding something if we're not all lumped together on one lost group."

She slowed from running to a jog, pausing to regain her breath. She wasn't a sprinter, after all.

"I mean," she said, breathing heavily. "Do any of us really know where we're going, or are we just randomly running away from danger?"

Sithdarth · 01-18-2006, 02:39 PM

Just then Sith, or Darthsith as people seem intent on calling him now, awoke. A lesser man would haver cried out in pain. A lesser man may have perhapse cried silently to himself. Sith was not a man of such low caliber; instead he let out the most earsplitting girlish shriek anyone had ever heard. It was so high pitched and girlish that his first scream during the bat encounter sounded down right manly in comparison. He also happened to jump to his feet ripping out a small clump of hair in the process leaving it in Krylo's hand.

"What in the hell happened to me," he continued in a very harsh, and definetly not manly screach.

Darth SS · 01-18-2006, 06:48 PM

Darth, now complete with a minor concussion, continued to run his ass off.

Krylo · 01-18-2006, 07:32 PM

Krylo looked down at the tuft of hair in his hand and quickly shook it away before responding to DarthSith's question while wiping the grease off on his pant leg. "You passed out like a little girl at the scent of slime dragon, so I dragged you along out of there... then you screamed like a little girl again. The others are further along that way, I suggest running," Krylo finished, as he pointed with his de-hair-grease-ified hand before firing a few rounds into a couple of nearby scavengers and then taking off as well. With the weight of SK and Darth weighing him down, he had just barely reached the edge of the chamber with the scavengers when the others had decided to flee, and, now that there was no one but those three in the room, the dragons and scavengers were moving to attack the new tasties.

Rhiya Ravenwing · 01-19-2006, 03:03 AM

The first of the large team arrived at a split in the tunnel.

Three splits to be exact.

As the clicking and the gut-wrenching smell faded away, the NPFers were posed with another problem: all three tunnels led down. All looked the same. All smelled of the sea.

There was running, staggering footsteps behind those that arrived first, and the Rhiya, Aerozord and Newb came into sight.
"...I... Think.... We... Lost.... Them..." Rhiya panted as they skidded to a stop, before looking up.

"... oh... dear... Ummm... Umm... splitupintothreegroupsquick... we'vewastedenoughtimealready..." Rhiya leaned against the wall, catching her breath. There was definitely some crystalized salt caking part of her wing, and her hair looked mussed up. Even some feathers were sticking the wrong way around. Aerozord and Newb didn't look better either, but they didn't pant as much.

"I swear... I need to exercise more," Rhiya said weakly before pushing off the wall, "Alright, I think... that after this split... only one of us'll get the right place to help Poseidon. I can't remember where the other tunnels lead about, so umm..."

Rhiya raised her finger and looked like she was counting the tunnels. Under her breath, she muttered 'eeny meeny miney moe...."

After a little bit of this, she staggered down the middle tunnel, leaving the others to organise into groups, or follow her.

Bailey · 01-19-2006, 11:24 AM

Newb Ilgivan looked at the three corridors, and pulled an oddly shaped rubber object out of his bag. He stood at a distance near the middle and tossed it into the air, then stepped back. The odd piece of rubber hit the ground and bounced towards the left tunnel, ending up bouncing off the walls following the slope downwards.

"I'll be taking the left path I guess." (EST)

Ilgivan strode forwards and stood at the mouth of the left tunnel, ready to follow down whoever else was going.

Aerozord · 01-19-2006, 02:18 PM

Aero transformed back to his kitty form and jumped on Rhiya. On her shoulder to be exact. For a moment his head looked around them. "Well someone needs to protect you while you recover. Can't very well let you get hurt now."
