Angelus | Cadolbolg | Ton Ton

"...oh...I get it, it's impressive. Stop. Staring. We have slightly smaller problems to worry about!" He said as he looked for something to cover up with."

The creature's eyes remained cold, and he turned away, the lantern still glowing fiercely, [color=15650D]"There is nothing to be impressed by. The Daemon is still about. We need to attack while the trail's fresh."[/color]

With that the Tonberry was already well on his way. To the King of Fighters, it appeared that the little creature was a serious sort. Wait, wasn't it a doll...? But to those around him, the effect of his cold demeanor towards Daemons (whatever those were exactly) was somewhat chilling, especially since the creature was typically a kind and gentle soul. Regardless, the group gave Rugal their space, and watched as Ton Ton went on ahead of them....

Caim | Devon

The two rushed to the Med Bay without incident, and propped Jenny against on the Auto-Doctoring Medical Apparatuses, and took the sheet away, exposing the poor creature's wounds to the world. Following that, all the two men could do was watch and wait...

Rugal

The fact he was talking to Ton ton, of whom he had only ever seen his Plush form, was lost on Rugal was he attempted to find something to cover himself up.
While he didn't mind the attention, This was not the time nor the place.
Going though one of the boxes he broke, he managed to find a pair of jean trousers to slip into.
"So that "Thing" was a Daemon?...You'd better know what you are doing, That thing is strong and feels no pain. That much I'm sure about..." he told the Tonberry as he put them on.
"So how do we stop it?"

Jenny

The Auto-Doc got to work on the Pokemon, treating the wound and helping reset her bones, but even after this was done, it'd be some time until she was up and about.

Angelus | Cadolbolg | Rugal | Ton Ton

Ton Ton's serious demeanor remained, even in speech, when he said, [color=15650D]"Perhaps not exactly what works as a 'Demon' of your world, but it certainly resembles one from mine. Back home, the Daemons were creatures that attacked children while they slept, and fed on their fear. They were made of shadows, and only the few blessed by their Mistresses or Masters were able to combat them. Essentially, stuffed animals from our world became living, and through their faith and love for the ones who granted them life, they were able to fight for their sakes. That was my job before showing up here... Things have changed a little since coming here. I used to be made of felt, for one."[/color]

The Tonberry gave a small sigh after mentioning his homeworld, but continued his briefing, [color=15650D]"However, my Knife remains keen and my Lantern bright. If the light from the Lantern scared it off a moment ago, then it's safe to assume the Daemon fears bright lights, and might be subdued by them. Another thing, it has a thick shell guarding the shadow beneath it. If I can get my knife inside the shell, then it'll be over for the Daemon... Otherwise, I don't really know. I never really fought with others when I combated these things, save for the Slender creature; but he was different... He was more real than anything else my Knife has cut. This will be a new experience indeed..."[/color]

To hear such things from a child-like voice as Ton Ton's was a bit odd, but the King of Fighters shrugged. A girl that sounded younger than this one had removed his eye, so it may be natural to assume this young creature might follow a similar mold. Regardless, it sounded like it knew what it was talking about, and that much was a comfort unto itself.

Angelus | Cadolbolg | Rugal | Ton Ton

Rugal was yanking long pieces of wood out of his back as Ton Ton explained what Rugal encountered.
"Bright Lights, eh? *Wince* Well, guess we're sleeping with *Wince* The lights *Wince* ON!" He grunted as he pulled a extra long one out.
"Still, Fire emits light and by god *Wince* I can provide that!" he boasted as another bloody piece of wood landed on the floor.

"Still, Fire emits light and by god *Wince* I can provide that!" he boasted as another bloody piece of wood landed on the floor.

Angelus laughed at this jest, and allowed a single flame to flicker from her hands, "You forget who's prescene you find yourself in, Rugal Bernstein. Two play at the game of fire, even if I should best you at it..."

She gave a small laugh after that, but frowned after that, the mock haughty tone vanishing when she spoke again, "However, I would still tread carefully. The last time we dealt with something of Ton Ton's prey... It wasn't pretty. I am glad the Slenderman has been put to rest..."

Airship Rising Dawn - Med Bay
| Caim | Devon

AS the machines started, Devon focused on one of the more serious injuries the Gardevoir had. "Come on, be tough... Don't you die on me." He cast the spell and tried to make sure that it went to the worst areas, but the control made it difficult to access the magic for a time.

Devon casts Cure Serious Wounds, healing 25 points of damage on the Gardevoir! However, it will be a full 30 seconds before he can cast again...

Airship Rising Dawn - Training Room
Garm | Lupito | Slindis | Teri

As Slindis continued to parry the attacks from her student, She made sure to give her student some insights. [color=c20000]"Come now, Teri! Repeating the same exact strike only makes it painfully simple for any opponent to see through your movements! Think it out, vary up your strikes, and think of how someone else would respond to your strikes while fighting. It's not simple, but no opponent in a real fight will show you mercy."[/color]

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Jenny

Thanks to the Cure Serious Wounds, it greatly lessened the amount of time Jenny needed in the machine.
She'd still needed some time to recover, but it was certain she'd pull though.
There should be more there but there isn't, Damn this writer and how he spent the last 30 minutes reading the Self Deprecation page on TV Tropes!
Fat Gobshite...

Rugal

Rugal finished picking the last of the wood from his back as Angelus brought up the topic of caution.
"Indeed...Next time, I won't be holding back..." He said as he made his way back up to the Sauna in order to get his suit before doing anything else.
It still confused him out he was unable to do anything against that Daemon, He wasn't holding back that time...

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal

"THERE YOU ARE!"
Thinking that the Demonic form of Lucifer was in fact the being who attacked him in the sauna, Rugal charged at him with the urge to tear his spine out and whip him to death with it.
(Rest to be filled in by DC)

Jenny

Despite how painful Charlie's usage of his power over bones was, it was what was needed to revive Jenny after her attack.
After from murmuring, she shot up awake and shouted "OH MY GOD!.....ohhhhhh man....I hate it when that happens..." before laying back down again.
"uhhhhh...Sorry, jus-...I was moving my things when some..."Thing" attacked me...Didn't get a good look I'm afraid..." She sighed as she regained feeling in her limbs.

Aftan | Akane | Lucieon | Nessaj

The Chaos Knight promptly dropped Luke onto the floor,blood seeped out of his leather armor and ran down upon the floor. Then Nessaj turned his attention toward the two women and shrugged, his armor grinding loudly at the joints, which has not seen care for many, many years. [color=dark orange]"I do not know him personally, but I have been summoned to his realm before, that I am sure."[/color]

Luke on the other hand was much less casual about the whole affair and drew his Estoc to guard himself against the three knights in the room. [color=CBD357]"What doest thou want from me! And whyst thou has hurt mine body!?"[/color]

Nessaj seemed to become annoyed at his accusatory speech and placed a heavy gauntlet upon the man's head, and then pulling him by his hair onto his feet. An experience that Luke found most unsettlingly painful. [color=dark orange]"You are not in your home any more. Show the people of this world more respect. Introduce yourself."[/color]

those words seem to shake Luke into sanity again, and he lowered his Estoc and pulled a dark black sprite onto of his pocket. With great haste and familiarity, he crushed it in his hands, and the darkness healed those wounds inflicted by Nessaj's spiked armor. Yet Luke still seemed somewhat disgruntled as he bowed and answered [color=CBD357]"... I am Lucieon of Candor. I'm a merchant by trade, but a medicineman by training."[/color] He sheathed Estoc and retried his Manus catalyst, a huge wooden staff that seemed to weigh much more than it had any reason to, and using that he placed it gently on the floor to use as a leaning stick, [color=CBD357]"I had expected to be returned home when I finished my quest. Yet I have arrived here in this forlorn place... Tell me, did any of you summon me? I do not seem to have the glow of a White Phantom about me, and neither do any of you have the darkness of a Gravelord Servant."[/color] He blinked and cleared his ice blue eyes of water and dust, [color=CBD357]"What is this place."[/color]

Rugal

*Crack*
After Lucifer got up after Rugal's attempt to knock him into next week, He bit his lip afterwards once the punch ran it's course.
Why do I only punch the ones with Thick Skulls!? He thought as he nursed his fist afterwards, whatever he hit didn't give way.
"Hey Hey Hey! It's me, Asshole!"
"Really? I couldn't tell, what with the fact it looks nothing like you!" He said back as snapped his knuckles back into place.
"I mean, I get you can change forms but can you please keep the range small for us humans?" He berated as he tried to covertly Fix his hand, small cracking noises giving it away for the most part.
"As for the Daemon, You're guess...*Crack*...Is as good as mine...[sub]Oyyyy, that's going to bruise...[/sub]" He sighed as he got it "Fixed" for the most part.
"No, but really, charge at someone looking like THAT?! What the hell where you expecting?" He said as he tried to coax feeling back into his fist.

Caim | Charlie | Devon | Ella | Tajuh

As Charlie left the Morgue, Tajuh closed the door for the Fake Elena's corpse and put the body in a deep cooling before heading back to his room. He needed to plan out what would happen with the inbound ships, and dawdling around here much more wouldn't help much.

------​

Devon turned to Ella as she entered. "Any word on your sister? She did seem a bit off... Just hold tight, Gardevoir, I'll finish up with that pain bit of the injuries." The second Cure Serious Wounds fixed up the more painful cuts in Jenny, leaving a decent amount of nicks and raw skin. As the spell spell finished up, though, his mind went back to the time he'd spent playing the Pokemon games when he was younger. Never thought I'd see actual Pokemon.... Then again, I didn't think that I'd have a literal training from hell either, so it shouldn't be all too surprising.

Rugal

Rugal let out a small sigh of relief as he regained feeling in his hand.
"...Do that and in that form. I've had enough surprises today..." Rugal ordered before he resumed his search for his suit, not really keen on hunting down this monster wearing nothing but jeans.

Jenny

Jenny relaxed as Devon fixed up the last of her wounds.
"Thank you...just...need to lay down for a moment...Wow....First dying, then waking up in a freezer, now this..." She sighed as she let feeling re-enter her limbs.
"...Is it still out there?..."

Lucieon sat down at the table and bowed his head politely before beginning to answer what he could, [color=CBD357]"No, not exactly... a Gravelord is one that brings catastrophe upon himself and pulls others from our times and worlds to do battle with him. The group of them, called the Gravelord Servants, do this to harvest souls to feed their power of malice."[/color] Nessaj wandered out of the Canteen to do whatever Chaos Knights do when they need their armor cleaned.

Luke continued talking after turning to notice the absence of the Black Knight, [color=CBD357]"Nor do I wish to return to where I did come from... My realm was a bleak and awful place torn asunder by a great magical plague. It is a place where only the undead live. Though I am disappointed that this is not my homeland, I am more distressed were I to go back to where I had come from."[/color] He put his chin ont he table and closed his eyes, [color=CBD537]"Perhaps I could find a place here, does the rising Dawn require a full time physician perhaps...? That role I can fill most competently."[/color]

It was a long while before Anyone at Aim saw Dani or Mizune again. Though, Dani did eventually wander up to the command center once more. Her appearance changed a bit, but by looking at her, you could tell she was her.

Linky

She had a collar around her neck, it was black and had a red jewel at the center. "Hi there Mr. Bison. I really have no where else to go as none of those i remember would recognize me. So..." the girl said looking down and twisting her right foot back and forth on her toes. "Can i get employment here for the time being?" she asked, looking at him sincerely.

Aftan | Akane | Lucieon

Luke perked up after listening to Aftan's proposition, his blue eyes seemed to light with the brightness of a young child, and indeed, his voice was almost giddy with excitement, [color=dark gold]"Quatermaster! Me?"[/color] He clasped his hands around Aftan's fair, armored, hand, [color=dark gold]"this is the first time anyone has told me that my tradescraft is more useful than my skill with a scalpel! Yes, I think I could do great to bolster the coffers of your group!"[/color]

He shook her hand long and hard, and the Manus Catalyst toppled over on it's side and nearly crushed the floor of the Canteen with it's tremendous weight, but Luke couldn't seem happier at the prospect of working in trade again.

Yet this man had an aura about him that seemed unright, as if his positive demeanor and child-like enthusiasm hid over something more sinister. Or perhaps it was just a matter of the way he held his body, as if it were always tired and in pain, or perhaps it was the way his voice carried great age and frustration. Indeed his voice was a peculiar thing, a scratchy strained sound that seemed to flow melodically as he spoke. And yet there were other peculiar things about him, including a dark orange tattoo upon the back of his right hand, and the black sprites he carried around on his person. Not to mention the jingling mass of Gold Coins he held in a satchel tot he right of his hip, unguarded and left slightly open.

Luke was a merchant indeed, of gold yes, but also of souls and humanity. A pilferer, a invader, a dark phantom that killed those who walked the same path of him to collect enough humanity to rise through the halls of Cataclama. This man was a cutthroat at everything he did, but his eyes had the honest allure of innocence that hid this true nature.

Luke paused before withdrawing his hand and turning his eye sheepishly toward the orange tattoo. There were things that he had to live through that had best stayed underneath that smooth horizon he called a face, but here was a question that Luke personally believed deserved an answer. However incomplete that answer might actually be, [color=dark gold]"This... this is my Darksign."[/color]

[color=dark gold]"It is a curse upon me that I cannot remove. It eats away at me, and it devours my mind. Yet it holds this form in life forever. It also binds me to a bonfire of my choosing, for me to reincarnate at every time I perish. Not only, it also allows me to walk between the worlds of others similarly cursed, to help them on their quest, or to impede them."[/color] He shook his head, [color=dark gold]"It is a hard thing to comprehend, not much can be said about this without experiencing it."[/color]

That was a question Luke had honestly not thought about. He was far too expecting of seeing his warm, safe, homeland again and did not worry about his curse. He had assumed that he could find a magus to remove it afterward... but at this point it seemed like an impossibility. [color=dark gold]"Hold, give me a moment to check... I do not know the answer to this question."[/color]

He slipped his hand into his bag and retrieved a red orb about the size of his palm. It was seemingly made of a crimson, bloodlike crystal, and had a carved eye etched on the top hemisphere. He gripped it tightly, and the orb glowed brilliantly, filling the room with dark red light. And then there was a deathly silence that filled the room and Luke laughed, pleased with the result.

[color=dark gold]"Worry not, it seems that no one can invade upon this place. Most possibly because it is a moving object, and syncing with it would be monumentally difficult. Although I cannot speak of any location else where the ties of these unexplained magics might run deep. The threat of invasion by another dark spirit is very probable, especially in places where people lust of humanity,"[/color] he put the red orb away and smiled, [color=dark gold]"but, if there are enemies who wish to find me through the power of the Red Eye Orb, or the twin Gods help me, a Blue Eye Orb, there will be allies nearby for me to summon."[/color]

Luke thought about that question for a moment and then answered accordingly to what little he could remember from his daily routine in Cataclama, [color=dark gold]"There are a few things... I shall require a bonfire. One that will burn indefinitely. It will serve as a beacon for me, as well as a place to prepare my magicks. Moreover, I could refill my estus flask with it's fire, which would serve me as a more reliable means of healing than to go through my very finite supply of solid humanity."[/color]

He felt that there were a few more things he should say, and also leave out about his capability with a bonfire, [color=dark gold]"I do not need to eat or sleep in the traditional sense. I merely rest near fire and absorb energy from that. But in the future, I will require more humanity to stay in this body, and that can only be collected by extracting it from a human source or stolen from another cursed undead, however that can wait until another day, a day when my current supply is depleted. It would be optimal if I could have a place in the airship where magick flows freely through, it would greatly benefit my ability to repair my weapons and armor."[/color]

AIM

Bison was in the Command Center drinking coffee when Dani came to him about a job.
[color=6c1504]*Slurp* "Sure I can get you a job here, can't let you do anywhere else, you know too much..."[/color] He sighed, delighting Dani with the opportunity.
All that quickly faded however when he gave her his mug and [color=6c1504]"Black. 2 sugars."[/color]
"Bison. I'll take the girl, need an assistant anyhow." Wesker butted in from the back of the room.
[color=6c1504]"With what? Cleaning up the sick? Hehahaahaha...Yeah, sure, see if I care. HEY! YOU THERE! COFFEE, BLACK AND 2 SUGARS!"[/color] He then ordered underling as Wesker motioned for Dani to follow him.
He was shaking somewhat and had a pained look on his face from the fact he wasn't getting his fix.
"I work Personnel, as in Managing the employees. And soldiers. If you have any objections to this, now would be the time to tell me." he added as he pulled out his flask out of habit before forcing himself to put it back away.
It was clear now, he was going cold turkey.
