....... Just what are all these things? Arq recognized some of the things, but there where also things he hadn't seen before. Just how did these things come here and why where they also inorganic?

Looking at it all, Arq tried to see if he could find anything organic there.

 

[InkBlot Royalist]

Saarg, no matter how hungry it was, could not bring itself to kill another of the mewing creatures. Instead, he turned his attention to the dead thing the large beast had been carrying. saarg advanced on it cautiously, wary that its killer might spring back, but it seemed to be gone for good.

 

[nuba km]

the slime decided that the effort to get at the organic thing inside the tall object would not be worth it, it ate the old crusty looking thing before deciding to try the other opening in the previous area it was in.

 

[Viirin]

@Arq: While investigating everything, Arq noticed that the faint smell that had initially lured him here was coming from the white thing with the cylinders on it. The other cube-like shapes were heavy and didn't move when he pushed on them. They were made of something organic, or at least most of them were. What might be inside, now that didn't leak smells except for very very slightly.

@Saarg: It didn't fix his appetite all that much, but eating the yellow thing the big animal had killed did help give Saarg enough mass to heal his injuries, as well as teach him something. The animal's skin was covered in little fluffy things that were soft except for a long, thin, hard core. He even got some stuck around his mouth. Looking down the.. path, humongous roaring things moved faster than Saarg could have imagined, with light coming from their eyes, illuminating the entire area in front of them. The things were so big that they seemed to make the Terror look weak by comparison. Then again, there was that interesting smell that Saarg had noticed still coming from somewhere within the hole in the straight wall.

@Wrecker: As Wrecker rubbed his mouth at the crusty while trying to get a better angle on it, the side of the tall shiny thing opened. The moment it did, a dozen new smells and cold air drenched Wrecker's senses. Inside the shiny thing were all sorts of interesting things of all colors. The inside seemed like it had different flat parts, with different things resting on each one. The lowest one that was easily within Wrecker's reach had a flat thing with several large light brown circular things on it that smelled sweet, some white stuff inside more of that invisible skin, and a few cylinders similar in size, shape, and color to the vial the slime originally came from, but different things of various colors were inside each one.

Ravager rubbed up against one of the things, cupping it in his slime. It felt nice, cold, smooth and hard. He started to poke his head out from the inorganic stuff, then pushed himself out.
He was...seeing the things that were pushing against him, ravager cock his head to the side as the pale-coloured containers glistened back at him invitingly. He wondered if it tasted nice. He put an exposed corner of it in his mouth.....pretty tasteless...but he noticed something else inside the object...a liquid. Ravager started to dig into the inorganic stuff - ow! Some of it got in his eyes! - to try to unearth the thing. But it took more effort than usual seeing as he was still a bit stiff.

 

[Erana]

Eltanin shuddered with delight, and hopped down to retrieve the shiny. It gobbled the creature up merrily, before returning to the large, comforting brown thing and climbing back up, into the green, waving part. The creature continued consuming more of the sweet that comes out of it.

 

[Viirin]

@Ravager: The liquid was a gold color, and even though it was a liquid of some kind, it didn't seem to move all that much when the clear inorganic container it was in was shifted around. It must be at least somewhat thick? The inorganic thing didn't seem to have any obvious openings, but it did have one funnier nub than the other small round ones. This one seemed to.. almost be like a pointy head. It even seemed like this thing's neck was made out of something different than the rest of it was.

@Eltanin: The slime could see a few things from its perch as it continued to eat. There were a couple large piles of.. things that weren't clearly defined, and had too random of colors or shapes to be able to understand what any of it was. The wet it had been in before wasn't just in one place, but it did cover most of the ground nearby. The couple places the wet was broken from itself, it was either because of brown stuff with green on it, or because of more of that undefined stuff.

 

[InkBlot Royalist]

Saarg, driven by both instinct and hunger, decided it would be best to avoid the massive, fast moving things with glowing eyes. One day, he might be able to hunt them. One day...
Saarg's hunger brought his attention back to the present. The smell coming from the hole was tantalisingly close and realistic, he realised the nose he'd taken from his Nemesis was apparently super-sensative! Keeping as alert as possible with the ferocious pangs of hunger stabbing at it, Saarg advanced on the hole. In preperation for an ambush, Saarg let its new talons slide from his paws. As he crept forward, Saarg realised that its movements were now more co-ordinated, and while he still stumbled occasionaly, he was slowly learning the pattern for walking with four limbs...

 

[Shanaar]

Having tested everything what he could find. Arq turned back to the white thing with the cylinders. Just what could be in these cylinders? They aren't made from organic materiaals, but there must be some organic things in there. He could sense it in them. Walking towards the white thing. Arq tried to get them open and get to the things that smell,

 

[Headsprouter]

Ravager examined the container and it's contents greedily. He butted it a couple times and started to nibble at it in different places. When he nibbled the top, he saw it shift from it's position slightly. Ravager continued to experiment with it's top, spinning it around a little when his face brushed against it. He tried biting it, but his jaw just slipped off the side, so he clasped his body against the side and took the entirety of the top into his jaw, and with it clamped down tightly, he started pulling.

 

[Khedive Rex]

Bosque decended into a swift dive at the creature that reminded him so much of the thing that ripped his head off. Just on instinct Bosque knew to hit the creature chin first and flex on impact. He felt the little nub poking from his chin release the same liquid as before and the impact sent the creaure rolling back. Bosque tried to right himself in the air, pushing against the ground with his tail.

@Saarg: Saarg wedged himself through the hole in the wall, and the smell got a hundred times stronger easily. Whatever this smell was, it seemed to be coming from the next area, through a much bigger hole with straight sides, and a part of wall the same shape and size that seemed attached, but not attached, since it was at an angle. There were lots of new things here, but they all looked pretty similar [http://www.mikesblender.com/mining%20town%20storage%20room%202%20HDR.jpg]. Besides the hole, two things stood out. One was a cylinder about 1 foot long and the same height, with random things in it that all looked flimsy. The other thing that stood out looked like a perch of some kind, that had a flat surface halfway between the ground and a ledge against one of the walls. This perch had four legs, but they all seemed immobile. Various sounds came from the other side of the square hole, none of which the slime could make reference to.

@Arq: The white thing [http://img467.imageshack.us/img467/9476/cooler4qm.jpg] didn't weigh anywhere near as much as the slime had thought. Bumping it didn't knock it over, but it did wobble it and the top fell off, as well as the cylinders that were sitting on it. Once open, the faint smell became not just obvious, but noxious! It was by far the most powerful scent the slime had ever encountered, and it was enough to overcome the slime's sense of smell entirely. Whatever it was that was in there, well, at least the slime found it. With its sense now temporarily useless, the slime had no ability to figure out what else might be inside unless it actually looked, but it had been knocked back, reeling.

@Ravager: The inorganic thing's head came off! Not easily, but it did come off. The golden liquid inside slowly started dripping, or oozing, its way down towards the open head-hole. The head had a small amount of flavor on it, maybe from being almost touching the stuff, or maybe it did but it wasn't noticeable until being within the slime's slime. It tasted sweet. Really sweet!

@Bosque: The other creature started to spasm slightly where the bad stuff had been injected, and its color even changed slightly. Strangely enough, the altered color started spreading from the infection site. That... that isn't how the stuff worked on other things, Bosque knowing this from his knowledge of the bad stuff. The creature didn't seem down for the count, though. Instead, it looked angrily at the slime, and breathed out as hard as it could at it. White fluffy stuff came out when it breathed, but Bosque's scream sight didn't see it, only its eyes did.

 

[InkBlot Royalist]

Saarg paused a moment to take in its new surroundings. All this new information was...terrifying. So many strange objects and no way to tell what was a lurking predator and what wasn't! But the furious hunger in Saarg drove him forward, he needed to eat something! Saarg advanced on the perch first, reaching out a paw and touching it. Definitely in-organic. saarg then turned its attention to the cylinder. What was inside? It looked fragile enough, Saarg might be able to break into it, but the slime decided to observe for a moment, before acting rashly.

 

[Viirin]

@Saarg: Within the cylinder was some liquid of some kind. The thing itself was brown in color, but could be seen through, and it tapered at one end and had a metal tip. Starting to get over the initial blast of scent, Saarg could start to notice the smells from within the white thing. The salty smell was definitely in there, but that couldn't be it, could it? No. There was some other smell that was almost as potent that was mixed in. This was different not just from the things the slime was used to, but different than the different, too.

@Ish: After consuming a large portion of the huge animal, Ish couldn't help but realize something. This animal was hollow, and it wasn't supposed to be. Its skin and bones were there, but that was it. Why did it look alive if it wasn't? Besides that, the odd feeling the slime had been getting since shortly after starting to eat was now noticeable. It felt.. wobbly. Like it had too much flexibility or something.

 

[InkBlot Royalist]

Saarg snaked his head over the lip of the cylinder, his long, agile neck alowing him access. Saarg tasted the liquid and recoiled, knocking over the cylinder and spilling most of the liquid onto the ground. It was so strong!! It was more potent than anything Saarg had tasted before and left him convulsing and retching. Even the venom hadn't been this bad!! But Saarg felt there was something...good about it. Energy. The liquid, foul as it was, was traveling through him and providing large amounts of energy. It did nothing for his hunger, but needs must! Saarg returned to the cylinder, which was now lying on its side, and saw some of the liquid caught behind the opening. Steeling himself, Saarg drained the lot.
Five minutes later, when the slime had finished convulsing, Saarg felt better, and more prepared to investigate this alien climate for food. Saarg advanced towards one of the boxes first, head cocked back into an "S" incase of a sudden attack.

 

[Shanaar]

Just what was that? how is that even possible? Arq thought as he sat on his haunch's. He had never experienced this before. His new sense, just couldn't take it. Just what was in that thing. What could it possible be. What could make his sense stop working like that?

Look at the white thing where the sense was coming from, Arq decide to to try and tip the thing over seeing as he couldn't look in it at the moment.

 

[Viirin]

@Saarg: Nothing within the box moved, but it did seem slightly dusty. A wide metal cylinder [http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-i4lCxsq3zjQ/ThXBYEW-R_I/AAAAAAAAA6I/y12E72qVPEg/s1600/paint%2Bcan.jpg] that was perfectly flat on top and bottom sat there all by itself. The sounds from the other room were still a distraction, but only because there were so many different types of sound.

@Arq: Pushing at the top of the white thing, it fell over without much difficulty, though the bottom was heavy. Liquid spilled out, clear liquid. Something else fell out, too. Some sort of.. invisible skin-covered gray-ish floppy thing that the smell that had lured Arq in the first place came from! A small thing, which looked inorganic, fell out too, but it must have been pretty close to the other thing for it to land that close to it. The invisible skinned thing's invisible skin was reflecting a little bit of the white circle's light from above, and Arq could tell that it was open on one side.

 

[Khedive Rex]

Bosque dodged the creature as it plummetted forward. He was very confused by the white air, trying not to touch it at all. It was the first time he'd seen something with his eyes he couldn't verify with his screams. It was all very disconcerting. And he had no idea why the creature was changing colors.

He dodged an attempt to gore he with one horn before wrapping his tail around the creature's necka nd trying desperately to fly up. Bosque was hoping it would end the white air the creature was releasing.

Spoiler

sorry for not posting for so long

wrecker satrted eating the stuff that was closest to him, while eating the circular brown things he used his tail to tear the invisible skin open so he could eat the white stuff next.

 

[Viirin]

@Bosque: The slime wasn't strong enough, and the creature weighed far too much for that attack to work, the slime quickly discovered. Plus, this thing was fighting back! It jerked its head down, slamming Bosque into the ground. The slime tried to release its tail from the other's neck, but found it.. couldn't.
Looking at the thing's neck and its own tail, the slime could no longer distinguish between the two. Were they now grafted to each other? How did this happen? It didn't hurt, but.. the other creature was absorbing the slime's tail!

@Wrecker: The brown ball things were cold, but then again, everything in there was because of the air. They tasted even sweeter than the slime had thought they would, but inside they were crunchy, juicy, and sour. What an odd thing to eat! The white stuff in the invisible skin was organic, but the slime had no idea what it even was, or used to be, or should have been. At least it helped fill its energy reserves a little, if nothing else. The clear cylinders with odd things included too many colors throughout the shiny's layers to bother looking at clearly, but there were a lot of them.
