Alicia

"Oh tha's better..." She muttered to herself as she stepped out of the Ladies Room. She tried to scan the room for Mira or that big fella she?d been talking to, but in her current state that was next to impossible; instead she somehow managed to spot Ohka, how was doing her best to hide in a corner.

Eventually weaving her way to the other girl, Alicia unceremoniously dropped into a seat beside her. "Hey there." She managed to say softly, despite the alcohol. "How'er ya hold'n up?"

[hr]

Isaac

"Hey... your clothing don't look like shit, and I think you're better looking than at least ten *hic* people here. Wanna *hic* head somewhere?"

He didn't know wither to laugh or cry, so instead he set his drink down and stood up. "Rose, dear." He said, placing a hand lightly on her shoulder. "This is what I'm talking about. Right now you are too drunk...and you're about a subtle as a kick to the nuts. Why don't you go back to the dorm, sleep this off and we'll try again once your breath is no longer in danger of igniting."

Slowly turning Rose around, Isaac nodded a farewell to Jack and began guiding Rose to the exit; as they passed the waitress he'd been flirting with earlier, he stopped to whisper something to her. The concerned look on the young woman's face, that'd appeared when she saw him with another woman, vanished after he spoke to her. Once they were outside, he steered Rose to a taxi stand and pressed several yen into her hands. "Like I said earlier, I highly recommend you head back home and sleep this off. Any decision you make in your current state you'll probably regret later...trust me on that." With that, he gave Rose's shoulder a companionable squeeze and headed back towards the bar. Merciful Allah...please let her listen to me.

 

[mcpop9]

"Stingy bas*hic*tard!" she shouted after him, moving forwards and spinning him around. "This is enough to get a tiny gumball. Not a cab ride home!" she said to him.

However, This was the time that time seemed to slow down for the two of them. From Rose's Right side and Isaac's left side, there was an explosion down the street. As Rose was complaining about the lack of yen and how he wouldn't sleep with her, they both watched as a hollow metal tube sailed between their faces. It sailed past them and burried itself in the concrete of the club, a good third of its length in the wall.

rose stopped and stared at the pipe and back in the direction of the explosion, a massive fire raging down the street. however, the fire itself was pink, not a good sign.

[hr]

Ohka slowly shrugged. She seemed to be out of emotions. however, when the power in the club went out and all the windows shattered. She instinctively was above Alicia and protecting her, the glass shards that would have seriously injured them, falling harmlessly to the floor. "Wha... what was that?" she asked, getting down off the table.

 

[Knife-28]

"Speaking of which, you seemed to have fun singing up there. Has anyone else in your group sung yet?"

"Most of us have yea, in fact I'm pretty sure there's only one of us that hasn't now." Jarrah said, glad that the topic had shifted onto something less grim. "Apart from my sterling preformance," He said, jokingly, "I reckon that Issac, he was the bloke that was up there before belting out lyrics in German, is probably the best singer out of all of us."

"Of course, it helps when you're a shapeshi-" Jarrah's sentence died in his throat as the club was plunged into darkness mere moments before the windows shattered inwards. The massive Australian swore and dropped down to the floor, unceremoniously dragging Maribelle with him.

 

[Athol]

Alicia

A large explosion outside, and finding herself underneath Ohka as glass rained down, had a very sobering effect on Alicia.

"Wha... what was that?"

"I dunno...bu' we should get th' others and get the fuck outta here." Once Okha go off of her, Alicia got to her feet. "Thanks f'r that...now le's get the others..."

[hr]

Isaac

As Rose drunkenly raged at him, Isaac kept walking. Well you wanted her to open up. Fan-fucking-tastic. Any further thought were rudely interrupted by a large explosion. "JESUS MOTHERFUCKING CHRIST!" Picking himself up, Isaac was running on a mixture of adrenaline and fear, the lessons from his father's security men sounding in his ears. Stay low, move fast, stay together. Dashing towards Rose at a half-crouch, he covered the distance between them in moments, clamping a hand on her with a strength that was surprising for a man his size. "We need to go NOW!"

Dragging Rose back towards the bar, his head swivelled back and forth as he searched for more threats. "We need to find Jack and Jarrah." He said, his voice oddly calm. "We get them, we go out the back, and we get back to the dorm."

 

[figment of mind]

"Of course, it helps when you're a shapeshi-"

Jarrah didn't finish as the lights suddenly cut out, which was a shame since Mirabelle wanted to know where he was going with that sentance. Still, she was sure that the lights weren't supposed to do that, prompting her own response of, "Uh...what-"

The windows exploded, causeing Jarrah to grab her and drop to the ground. While she was surprised at the explosion, she wanted to tell him that it wouldn't work and that she would be fine...if he hadn't easily succeeded. As such, all she could say was, "-SIFHICAH!", as she was dragged down unceremoniously by the giant, clanging against the floor.

Slowly rising, she said, "...i know i can't really feel pain, but I'd like to say, ow. Anyways, what was that?"

 

[Sithmorack]

The windows exploded, The lights were off, Jarrah was taking cover, and all Jack could do was sigh and mutter "fan-fucking-tastic." He quickly got up and used some of the shadows in the room to brush some of the patrons aside. He made his way to the exit and opened the door to see what had caused the explosion. He could see Isaac running towards him with Rose in tow and a large pink fire behind them. He held the door open and made a hand motion to signal Isaac to run towards the door.

"What a great day..." Jack said to mostly himself.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra dropped down off the bar stool as the explosion went off and the lights cut out. The lack of lights didn't bother her, she sucked the light from the area when she used her powers, no it was what ever cause the explosion that concerned her.

First things first, find her friends and get get them to safety, then maybe deal with the attacker. First she made her way over to Ohka and Alica "We need to leave, Now." Sierra said as she started looking for Mirabelle.

 

[Knife-28]

"...i know i can't really feel pain, but I'd like to say, ow. Anyways, what was that?"

"I don't know, but I don't think we should stick around to find out." Jarrah replied as he too rose to his feet. Using his hight advantage to look over the crush of panicked patrons heading towards the exits, in one of which Jarrah spotted Jack. After a quick scan told him that the rest of the group was nowhere to be seen, he turned back to Mirabelle and crouched down to look at her face to face.

"Mirabelle, go find your friends and take them out the back entrance. I'll grab my mates and meet you there." Jarrah reached across and placed a hand on Mirabelle's shoulder. "Ok?"

 

[figment of mind]

"Mirabelle, go find your friends and take them out the back entrance. I'll grab my mates and meet you there. Ok?"

"Alright, good luck finding your friends. Also, a little warning, we may have Ms. O'Donnell and a demon teacher with us, depending on if they can be found or not.", Mirabelle said, nodding to Jarrah before heading off. She didn't know where she would start searching for them but at least she could be sure that they were looking for her too.

She began by the bathrooms first, figuring that it would help to start where she knew Alicia had gone, hoping that she was still there. Getting through the crowds was easy enough (there's benefits to being made of metal, after all...) but her search proved fruitless as a cursory check of the bathrooms proved that noone that she knew had taken refuge there. Moving on, she decided to check the bar, partly because she had seen Sierra and Ohka there, partly because she suspected that a girl that wanted more of a specific alcohol wouldn't pass up the opportunity to try and get some more at some point.

Getting to the bar, she began moving down it, trying to find any of them. Checking behind it, she once again didn't see her friends behind it for any reason, so she moved on, hoping to find another place to at least see her friend. Of course, running straight into her friend (lit. crashing into them in the dark) wasn't what she had in mind, but it would work as she accidentally knocked herself into Sierra.

"Ah, sorry about that! Still, glad i found you. A guy i know from the school is here, he's going to get his friends and meet us at the back door so that we can get out of here together...have you seen Alicia or Ohka? Or Birres and Ms. O'Donnell for that matter?"

 

[Outcast107]

Tomas was trying his best to make his way back to the school. Though he felt a bit lost due to still being new to the area, being dark, and due to him being a bit drunk. 'At least I can walk straight.' he thought. As Tomas walk down the street, he heard a large explosion happening behind him. Sighing as he turn around quickly, wondering what just happen.

"I hope everyone alright..." he said as he starts to rush back to the bar. He needed to check to see if his friends weren't in harms way.

 

[mcpop9]

As the club was rocked with more explosions, the flood lights inside coming on and making it possible to see once more, The group of girls (mirabelle, Ohka, Sierra and Alicia) found Birres standing with them. "Ladies, i'm going to give you all a lesson. Sierra, we're going to have a field lab." he said as their vision was clouded with red smoke and they appeared outside the front of the club. Birres looked around and they could see he was not exactly convincing as a human. He had small horns showing on his head and his skin took a dark red appearance.

"You girls need to handle the cultists in the over world, Miss O is taking care of their leader, but the civilians risk being killed... well more of them." he said as he turned his head. "Speak of the devil." he said as miss O came tumbling down the street. She dug her arm into the ground, which was seemingly silver and looking alot like a sword now.

She got up, looking rather mad. "Girls, do as i say, not as i do." She said and ripped off her long skirt she was wearing, leaving it like a mini mini skirt. "Now, do as i do and say. We're going to give these fuckers a run for their money." she said and charged back into battle, slicing a couple of the lesser cultists in half with her arm before engaging a hooded and cloaked man, dancing back and forth and exchanging blows.

This is when out of the smoke a series of cultists appeared, all wielding some sort of red liquid around themselves, striking out at any civilians in reach.
[hr]

Rose didn't protest the dragging back to the club until about half way there, sheer terror came over her as she screamed from the previous interaction with the pipe. She soon calmed down and was dragged into the club via the fron doors, just in time for them to shut right behind them, of their own accord.

[hr]

Birres turned to seirra, trying to get her ready. "Listen, i need you to unleash your demon form, them i'm going bring you into limbo. ever hear of it?" he asked, expecting her to not know much about it.

[hr]

Meanwhile, in the club, the guys found the doors force themselves shut and locked them in the club. Thge lights began to flash and pump with color once more, music began pouring out over the speakersThey began to feel a bit dizzy, but soon enough the entire club got a off feeling to it and the dizzyness went away. Next, all the people seemingly disappeared and the club grew in size, becoming a sort of arena.((only pay attention to the club's transformation.)) Appearing in the arena, materializing out of what seemed to be thin air was a robotic and demonic looking humanoid standing there. the creature let out a roar before charging them, standing an impressive twelve feet tall and being rather mass-full.

 

[Lunar Templar]

"Listen, i need you to unleash your demon form, them I'm going bring you into limbo. ever hear of it?"

Sierra gave Birres a funny look as she dropped her illusion as summon her sword. After a couple more second of silence "Yeah, I've been, a few assassins tried killing me there, didn't know what the place was called till I got to the school though." she said as she readied her self for the change over to Limbo, even though she'd been a few times it was still something she was far from used to seeing, she was more concerned about her friends though, it'd been a night of pretty hard drinking for some of them, nothing to be done though, she simply had to have faith they'd be ok. Not that she wasn't going to try and sort this out quickly. "Lets go" she said to Birres

 

[Knife-28]

"Alright, good luck finding your friends. Also, a little warning, we may have Ms. O'Donnell and a demon teacher with us, depending on if they can be found or not."

Jarrah returned Mirabelle's nod before he turned and pushed into the crush of people headed towards the doors, that is, before they slammed shut. Jarrah and the other patrons looked around as the club began to fill with music once more. The Yowie was hit by a wave of dizziness as he tried to move through the stunned crowd. As it dissipated, so did the people around him as the bar expanded into an arena.

A monstrous roar drew Jarrah away gaze of his friends (minus Tomas) and onto the visage of a towering creature barrelling towards them. With no time to think Jarrah's body moved in automatic as his hand found the opal set in his wristband and time seemed to slow as the magic in the gem flowed into his body, casting away the human disguise and returning to his true form.

Jarrah returned the creatures roar with one of his own as he braced himself to meet it's charge.

 

[figment of mind]

"Well...that answers the question of where they are...", Mirabelle said to herself after they were moved outside. She was going to bring up the fact that there were others from the school that were waiting for them them inside the bar...but she figured that could wait until they did their task. After all, part of the reason they were at the school was to help and protect the normal civilians of the world and that did take priority priority over her and Jarrah's groups escaping.

Still, she didn't know how good half of her group would be in this fight, so she decided to try and take up any slack that they would have. She charged at the first hooded being that she could, casually ripping out a sign pole along the way, and swung it at the being's head as hard as she could. She doubted that she would actually get close to hitting the person, she just wanted to see how this red liquid reacted, and if she actually did hit, then it was a bonus.

 

[Sithmorack]

"That... can't be good" Jack said mostly to himself as he watched the doors shut and some people attempt to open them, only to be disappointed as it wouldn't open. When the music kicked in he felt slightly dizzy but after a bit he adjusted. When he finally got over it he looked around to notice that the entire room was changing. 'What,ho-why?!' Jack thought to himself as the room became rather bright. Jack scowled for a moment thinking 'aren't that many shadows in this room... shit...'

That was when he heard a rather large roaring sound come from behind him. He immediately saw the creature standing well above his height and charging strait at him or more accurately behind him. He also noticed Jarrah transform into his natural form behind him and brace himself. Unfortunately, he only then realized he was standing in between the two. "Shit,shit,shit!" Jack cursed as he rolled out of the way of the incoming giant.

 

[Athol]

Alicia

Alicia's head spun as she found herself outside the club. "Ohhh..." Things were being said around her, but she kind of faded out until Miss O appeared.

"Girls, do as I say, not as I do."

Damn I left my shirt inside...aww I like that shirt...

"Now, do as I do and say. We're going to give these fuckers a run for their money."

"Huh?" She was still rather out of it, and unsure of what the hell was going on, but clued in rather quickly as she saw a group of Hot Topic rejects storming the people on the street, attacking whomever was closest. The sight of people abusing their power purely for their own amusement, and some of the attackers were laughing, enraged her.

In an instant she was bathed in intense yellow flames. As Mirabelle rushed them with a signpost, which she casually ripped out of the ground, Alicia lobbed fireballs at several of the attackers. "HEY! FUCK-STICKS!" She bellowed. "HOW 'BOUT YOU PICK A FIGHT WITH SOMEBODY WHO CAN FIGHT BACK!"

[hr]

Isaac

Ignoring Rose as she freaked, Isaac hauled her though the door, which promptly slammed shut behind them. "The hell?" Before he could even begin to question that, a wave of nausea took him took him to his knees as the club 'shifted' into something that looked more like an arena. "Bloody Nora...this can't be good." That understatement was confirmed when huge humanoid...thing roared and charged towards them.

Seeing Jarrah transform and brace to meet the charge, Isaac let go of Rose and began to run towards the creature. If you are unable to retreat, ATTACK. As he ran, Isaac began to shift forms. His skin became thicker and pebble-y, while his body began to grow, shredding the clothes he was wearing. By the time he'd passed Jarrah, he was at least 6 feet tall, and massing close to 300 pounds; as he passed Jack, he was now 7 feet tall and close to 400 pounds of bone and muscle wrapped in a thick armoured hide, looking like a humanoid rhino (minus the horns). Bellowing [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ED0_uV3SVG0] in defiance, he slammed into the creature at full force. Thicker skin or not, that's going to hurt tomorrow.

The creature staggered slightly as Isaac hit it, roaring in annoyance. "You're mine no-" Isaac was cut short when it clubbed him hard across the back with the weapon that was fused to its right arm. Hollering in pain, Isaac was clubbed a few more times, losing his grip and being driven to his knees. Now that Isaac's grip was broken, the beast grabbed him with its massive three fingered hand and threw him off to the side where he lay in a dazed heap, slowly reverting to his 'normal' appearance.

 

[Outcast107]

Once Tomas showed back up at the club, he would see the girls getting ready for combat or already fighting what appear to be hooded figures. Sighing, as he wish something good would happen today. Transforming his hands into his semi-dragon state as he ran up to the group. Wishing he learn better control these pass few weeks, but is only able to do so little at moment.

Running up beside the group that wasn't fighting yet as he said "So...what going on now?" He was still a bit buzz but luckly was coming out of it due to the explosions and his dragon-side bringing him out of it. Taking a look at the enemy up closer now while he listen to the girls.

 

[Sithmorack]

As he got back to his feet, Jack noticed a shape get thrown right passed him. Once it had landed and he could get a closer inspection, he noticed it was in fact Isaac lying on the ground. He quickly ran over to the shapeshifter and began checking him over for any major damage. Once he had determined that Isaac was not injured, he quickly started getting him to his feet. "Come on big man, the ladies you hit on can take more than that" Jack taunted as he got his dormmate to his feet.

With slight concern on his face, Jack waved his hand in front of Isaac's eyes and said "you okay?"

 

[Knife-28]

The sight of Issac being sent flying didn't exactly fill Jarrah with confidence, and neither did the fact that it chose to advance towards his wounded roommate. "Hey, over here you great bastard!" Jarrah yelled as he moved away from the rest of the group. The creature turned and with another roar charged towards him, it's footfalls shaking the arena around them.

Jarrah held his ground until the last possible second, until the monster was all but ontop of him and Jarrah could see the whites (or in this case purples) of it's eyes before he threw himself to the side. The creature tore past him like a speeding train and slammed headfirst into the wall. 'Thank you video games.' Jarrah thought as he stood and spotted the pulsating purple pustules on the creatures back.

While it was stunned, Jarrah leapt and grabbed onto the protrusions on the creatures back with one hand as he plunged the other into what looked like a giant purple blister.

 

[mcpop9]

Rose watched as Isaac intercepted the massive beast and Jarrah soon took the situation into his control. She was drunk off her ass and was still trying to figure out what the fuck was going on but shrugged and sat in the middle of the room, transforming, hair going white, katana appearing in hand and robes draping on her. She was seeming to meditate with little hum to her relaxation and thought.

Meanwhile, the beast let out a guttural roar as it felt the arm enter the blister, however, after a few seconds of the mountain's arm being in the larger mountain's blister, there was a ding like one might expect of an elevator arriving at the floor, or a toaster being finished and a quiet little british female voice spoke. "DNA input accepted, thank you." and Jarrah was blasted off the monster's back with a massive burst of energy, being sent flying into the currently stunned isaac and jack.

The beast then grew hair over all the exposed fleshy bits, very similar to Jarrah's own. It turned around and seeing the crumpled state of the others, looked to find something it could crush under its foot easily, setting its sights on Rose as it began to charge her.


[hr]

Birres nodded and sierra felt the familiar hazing of the world around herself as she was dragged into limbo, the streets breaking apart, parts of the world falling out from existence and shit going generally crazy. Looking around, it looked like a combination of all the insane thoughts of a mental asylum, the necronomicon and hell had an orgy and this was the result. The buildings were built out and up, being very feudal japan meshed with the modern world in style.

Looking over at Birres, she'd find he was actually but an imp. "Yeah, i'm not much, but you on the other hand, can take care of that thing." he said pointing out over wrecked street to a giant demon. "They cannot hurt that thing in the real world, and it's yet to actually show up through the debris and smoke, i'd advise getting to killing it. And feel free to let your dark magic flow here, it should be far easier on your body if you recall." he explained, still about the same height, his tiny horns denoting his rank.

[hr]

Mira's punch was caught by the red liquid, slowing it enough to stop any serous damage as her attacker tried to swing a punch up into her, only have his hand broken on her plates. Her opponent cried out in pain before using the red liquid, which she could note was actually blood upon closer inspection, in order to make a series of spikes around himself for protection.

Alicia's attacker used the red liquid to block the shots, the liquid being used up in the process, evaporated. Then launched back at her a series red spikes, trying to take her out.

Ohka meanwhile was shaking and curled up into a ball, trying to hide away from the assaults as Thomas would see.
