Dillon followed the panels, he intended to get down to the earths core he took an express elevator downwards to the bottom of Aperture (not a euphemism for falling). as he went down he checked the status of the drill it wouldn't be easy to dig down so deeply but aperture and some of the most advanced scientific equipment.
"What they could do with quantum programming best to keep that safe we don't need too much power in one group.
Still Dillon had once entrusted aperture to Justin and GLaDOS, two villains simply because he trusted them more than wesker. But Aperture seemed to be constantly played around with.
Angelus was the first to react to Dingodile's flames. Taking in a deep breath as she was wont to do in her normal form, Angelus opened her mouth wide to unleash a stream of fire herself. The two sets of flames, Dingodile's and Angelus', began to do battle for supremacy; each pushing at each other in their own ways: Dingodile with gas, and Angelus with sheer will. In the meantime; Caim edged around the battle of flame, and took the moment of distraction to charge at the mutant.
Teri took this moment as well to burn a turn attempt, and initiated the healing Aura for battle; as well as cast Create Water on the currently burning Cuties, dousing them gently with 14 galleons of water. Excessive? Perhaps, but the Cleric had another scheme up her sleeve. One that began with the letter S.
Code:
Teri initiates her Healing Aura! All allies who stand within 15 feet of her will get healing in increments of 2 pts every 6 seconds!
[b]Remaining Turn Attempts[/b]: 5 Undead/4 Fire
Code:
Teri casts Create Water! 6 seconds till the next 0 level spell...
After sputtering and shaking themselves off, the duo gave their thanks to Teri, and took flight again, Ton Ton already feeling the need for retribution. He may have it easy against elemental damage, but that didn't mean Cadolbolg did....
"...Okay....Just...You don't think...he could "Raise the dead"..." Jenny asked, fearing she was asking a silly question. "I mean, it's the only explanation that works. He was on the ship at the time and I was told no one else was ever in the morgue with me..." She asked, praying to god that she was barking up the right tree.
Melethia strafed over to get to Cortex with a nocked arrow on her bow and got a good angle on the man, and she fired a warning shot right under the Doctor's groin. "Really? Ya thought ya'd be able to run?" SHe quickly nocked another arrow, ready and able to counter.
Meanwhile, Devon hummed an extremely rousing little ditty, Inspiring Courage in the group as he went off to the opposite side to get a good angle of attack on Dingodile.
Code:
Devon used up a Bardic Song to Inspire Courage in the group! Lasting for 5 minutes and 36 seconds thanks to the enhancements, it gives a +5 morale bonus to attack rolls, +6 morale bonus to damage rolls, and a +5 morale saving throws versus fear. Basically, the group's braver and they hit a decent bit harder.
Bardic songs left: [s]12[/s] [b]11[/b]
A bead of sweat rolled down Cortex's head as Melethia aimed another arrow at him.
However, his unsure look turned into a half smile.
[color=b4b4]"...No...But I'm able to ride..."[/color] He said as his Hoverboard came racing in to it's master's rescue, striking her in the back of the head in the process.
Climbing up and laying down on it, he then went to make his way out.
At least until he saw Squishy blocking his path.
[color=b4b4]"...Arcane enhanced Hydrogen IS NOTHING TO ME!"[/color] He shouted before piloting his Hoverboard clean though the water elemental, getting past the creature and getting soaked in the process.
The little doctor that could then escaped the lab shouting [color=b4b4]"SCIENCE!"[/color], clearly overjoyed at the fact he was still alive.
He then raced off to raise the alarm.
Dingodile was unable to turn and fire at Caim and Devon thanks to Angelus's pressure, leaving him wide open.
That massive fuel tank on his back was a pretty easy target to hit.
Rugal
After getting the full story from Slindis, Rugal shook his head.
"Barely a week out of a war and she wades into another one...Still, have to admire her drive..." He said as he sat next to her.
"Though, I'm certain that there was no malice to her not telling you. You basically taught her everything she knows about being a cleric. I doubt one would accept teachings from someone they didn't trust." He added, hoping to calm her down.
"...Okay....Just...You don't think...he could "Raise the dead"..."
"Well, I've seen him do crazier things......." He looked at Jenny, then grinned. He always liked to make sure there was a happy ending. "I'm not him, so I can't exactly speak for him. But, " Fionn stood up as he finished his point. "I wouldn't worry about returning the favor. He'd do what he did since he saw it as the right thing to do. Nothing more, nothing less." Regardless of Jenny's reaction to the revelation, he began to stroll off, wondering what to do at this point.
Devon did a running jump and hacked at Dingodile's side, proving to be a decent bit comfortable with the fairly light bastard sword. He would have done the running charge, but the movements for that yesterday had proved to be extremely difficult.
Meanwhile, Melethia went by Angelus to aid her in the fight. Although she didn't have control over fire, she'd gained a large amount of experience around it and had made her armor specifically to resist it and ice. "Redscale, I've gotcha covered!" She exchanged her bow for Risia [http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee403/TajuhDDO/ScreenShot00025_zps4935d859.jpg] and Siegebreaker [http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee403/TajuhDDO/ScreenShot00020_zps8790253d.jpg] to aid Angelus, and she got ready to counter the attack when Dingodile got back up.
Rugal
Slindis shook her head. [color=c20000]"It still doesn't explain why Melethia had to go along... those two are a handfull. They know that I could've went there for them on this. Those two deserve time to rest! Life on the battlefield is not a glamorous one, and it's one I don't want for either of them. Is that so much to ask for?"[/color]
Squishy shivered with pain as Cortex burst through him, but reformed himself, and returned to his mistress' side, enjoying the soothing feeling of positive energy when he approached.
In the meantime, Caim was able to finish his charge by the time Devon moved out of the way; and thrust his blade forwards, sending a sonic shockwave into Dingodile's already damaged side; as well as hitting the fuel tank in the process. The flames on his end stopped almost immediately, and Angelus found that her flames were no longer necessary as Dingodile fell over and began to flail, his pack glowing a sickly green. Teri blanched, poured out a water bottle, and commanded Squishy into the thing, crying out, [color=0E59E4]
Code:
"HE'S GONNA BLOW!"
[/color]
Garm made no waste of time after that, and made haste to speed out of the room with Pup in tow; the other party members following behind as a loud explosion shook the room they exited from. Unfortunately, in their time fighting the Dingodile, an alarm had been raised as well... But, they knew where Furiae lay:
With their objective in sight, The group made their way to the location of Furiae.
There was only one thing standing in their way now. "YOU!" Inuart shouted as Caim barged in with the others in tow. "No....not going to happen...I have not spent this long...for you to ruin our lives together..." He stated as he drew his sword, no taunting, no gushing for her affection, just the urge to kill what was in his way: Them
AIM: Command Center
Cortex raced into the command room, his wounded led bleeding and leaving a trail of blood where ever he went.
[color=b4b4]"THE RISING DAWN ARE HERE! THE'RE HERE! THE'RE HERE!"[/color] He shouted at the top of his lungs to anyone who would listen.
[color=b4b4]"...just thought you'd like to know..."[/color] He sighed before passing out from blood loss.
Bison was less then pleased with this.
[color=6c1504]"Dammit...What state is the power grid in?..."[/color] "It still won't be up for another hour. UNIT would be here by then!" Wesker answered as he brought up some readouts on the computer.
[color=6c1504]"....Re-route remaining power to M.A.N.G.O. Prep all evacuation procedures...."[/color] Bison ordered as Everyone followed, while it was only part of the Rising Dawn, they knew where AIM was now and that alone made evacuation necessary.
All the while, Bruiser was watching replays of their entry. "...Toots and Ms Gravel?!...How did they find me!?....Shit..." He growled as he made his way to the chamber housing AIM's most powerful weapon, already plotting to use it on Angelus.
Rugal
Rugal was about to speak when an alert hit his PDA, The call for a evacuation of the Cartel's last stronghold.
"...No...No it is not." He said, electing to ignore it, it was most likely Doom hitting the panic button after getting his hand stuck in the kettle again.
"Still...Even if we can't give them a proper childhood, one without constant war and battle, I'm certain we can give them a happy one...." He said, every second making the news he was going to deliver harder and harder...
"Sup Bison." The Dark voice which had ruined aim's defenses and turned more than a quarter of the staff into necromorphs said. The man would slowly turn around, on the verge of having an aneurysm in his brain to see Alucard standing there, drinking a slurpy.
"I went to get a slurpy." he said then took another sip of it, his body and suit rather suspiciously clean and blood absent.
[hr]
Mizune's fingers were flying over her keyboard, trying to get the doll's to prepare her escape along with them in a rocket.
The sex bots were busy hammering, welding and crafting the needed items out of the base around them, a few with machine guns to hold off any intruders that got near them.
[color=6c1504]"ALUCARD!!"[/color] Bison roared at the top of his lungs, lunging out to strangle the Vampire, Alucard merely phasing his body in time so Bison grabbed nothing.
He watched as Bison was literally the angriest person he'd have ever seen.
"...*Sound of slurping*..."
Then, Bison could take no more and he did the only thing he could do to that man.
He knocked the Slurpy out of his hand and onto the floor, spilling the wonderful beverage all over the floor and on Alucard's shoes.
[color=6c1504]"...You're Fired..."[/color]
He then returned to trying to salvage something out of this entire mess.
"No....not going to happen...I have not spent this long...for you to ruin our lives together..."
Caim growled, his hands on his weapon tightening as he looked into the face of the man who had orchestrated his sister's imprisonment. A dark expression passed over his face as he readied his stance... Before turning invisible and charging Inuart head on.
Angelus felt herself being washed over by an immense wave of Caim's emotions; and distinctly noticed that his rage had not been this palatable since... well, since they had last faced Inuart. In charged a man who utterly hated the red head before him, and she knew damn well that Caim did not intend to leave him alive. With a sigh, she ran in as well, and began readying homing shots at the red head.
Ton Ton and Cadolbolg zipped in after the partners, Ton Ton poised and ready to jump; and Cadolbolg charging lightning in his gullet.
Garm readied himself to join in the festivities as well, but Teri held her large wolf friend back, and instead chose to clap her hands and ready an ice beast. It was one she hadn't used before, but the creature was a speedy one, and that was something she needed.
Code:
Teri casts Conjure Ice Beast 2 to summon Shelob the Ice Spider! Shelob will stick around for 7 rounds, or 42 seconds! The next 2nd level spell can be cast in 24 seconds....

Devon glared at Inuart. "Ruin your life with her? You've already done that yourself by using her as your attack dog when shit hit the fan! Any compassion you think she feels for you is just Stockholm Syndrome kicking in for her, and you aren't touching any of us!" As he finished his statement, the group felt an immense amount of fortitude.
Code:
Devon used [color=cobalt]Ironskin Chant[/color]! It grants DR 5/- [http://ddowiki.com/page/Damage_Reduction] to all nearby allies for 60 seconds plus 6 seconds per Caster level, or 2:42. This Damage reduction can not be bypassed, so it will blunt the damage of Inuart's attacks for its duration.
Bardic Music uses: [s]11[/s] [b]10[/b]
Before throwing his first attack, the Bard flipped a coin. "Hell, I'd wager Fortuna's on out side right now. And why wouldn't she be, when we're facing you? I think I'll be seeing you later on in Hell."
Code:
In addition, Devon casts Improvisation! For the next 54 seconds, Devon gain access to a floating "pool" of luck. This bonus pool consists of 2 points per caster level for a total of [b]18[/b] points, which he can spend as he likes to improve attack rolls, skill checks, and ability checks, although no single check can receive a bonus greater than one-half your caster level, or [b]4[/b]. He must declare any bonus point usage before the appropriate roll is made. Used points disappear from the pool, and any points remaining when the spell ends are wasted.
Time before the next level 1 spell: [b]24[/b] seconds.
Melethia eyed the man up as she held the two blades, trying to mirror his movements so she could know exactly what to expect. She had a feeling that she could at least cause a decent bit of damage if she got in close, but it would be a lot easier if she let Caim get the first attack in so she could flank the redhead and cause damage while he was unaware. Man, this guy feels creepy...
Rugal
Slindis looked at the ceiling as she rubbed her left arm. [color=c20000]"I tried as much back home, and I felt that I had made some actual headway. Still, with that home gone, there's not much that can be done now. Tell me, what kind of parent are you if you can't even give your children the peace of mind that the place they're staying is safe> I don't know what it is, but it's not a good parent at all."[/color]
There was the longest sigh that anyone in the history of mankind had ever heard. It all ended with a statement from alucard."... You're going to pay for that one." The Vapire said and walked over to the main computer in the room, punching his arm into it. He tore out the hard-drives and stuffed them into his coat.
He then walked past the stunned bison, having actually seen for the first time, any sort of serious effort out of alucard, who swiped his wallet out of his pocket and disappeared into thin air.
[hr] U.N.I.T. Hq
The door to the commander's office opened and Alucard strolled in. Soon after him, the front deskman showed up panting.
"SIR! i tried to stop him, but he kept walking down the hallway and tilting every picture along the way!" the man said.
Alucard stood there, his eyes behind his sunglasses with a grin on his face.
"SIR! i tried to stop him, but he kept walking down the hallway and tilting every picture along the way!"
"That's alright Private. Return to your post, I have this well in hand." Richardson stood up behind the desk, waiting until the Private left. "Delightful as always Alucard. To what do I owe this, pleasant, visit? We haven't seen you since the Olympics fiasco." All those gymnasts...... Richardson shook his head in an attempt to clear his head. He pulled out a bottle of whiskey out from underneath the table and pulled out a glass for himself. Lets get this over and done with then.
"Well..." Alucard began. "My previous employer, [small]previous was about five minutes ago[/small], was an asshole. He spilled my slurpy, so i took the hardrive to the main computer in their command room." he said and pulled it out from his coat.
"I think their name was AIM, so i'll give it to you for a mountain dew slurpy, and a new pair of shoes; exactly like my current ones, save for the slurpy on them." he said looking at the piece of machinery in his hand.
"I think their name was AIM, so i'll give it to you for a mountain dew slurpy, and a new pair of shoes; exactly like my current ones, save for the slurpy on them."
".....This is surprisingly direct for you Alucard." Richardson was slightly stunned by this development; finally get AIM, and HE'S the one offering the intel?! "Well...... you can talk to Private Garmand out there about getting your payment. You can leave the hard drive with him. Go easy on him mate, its his first day here." Richardson knew it wouldn't be this simple.
Tajuh, Fionn.
Seeing no one else familiar on the Hagane, Fionn decided to walk on over to the hangar to see if he could get a lift somewhere. With nothing on the agenda for group he knew about, Fionn saw no real point in staying around. Spotting Tajuh's mech, he walked over to see how the ace pilot was doing. "Well Tajuh! How's it going?"
"Well, fine then." Alucard said and walked out of the office, the door shutting behind him and maniacle laughter following suit. Then from down the hallway, the commander heard the private's complaint.
"I JUST STRAIGHTENED ALL OF THEM BACK!" he cried out.
After a 2nd session of straightening.
"I have a hard-drive here from aim and i'm going to need a Mountaindew slurpy, a new pair of shoes, exactly like the one i have, direct access to this and future popes, as well as the vatican." he said, puling out the hard-drive again.
Tajuh finished looking at the information for where he was headed next as she finished up the water she walked in the room with. It's a shame that whoever caused this didn't admit it... They must of thought me irate. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be able to talk to the person later.
After closing the documents describing the massive racial tensions fueled by radicals on both sides, Tajuh looked up to see Fionn entering the Hangar. "Ah, Fionn. Is there something you wish to talk about? I would have found you earlier, but I've been busy getting intel on some where I'm headed next." If Fionn hadn't noticed the man's change at the afterparty, he certainly noticed it now.
"Ah, Fionn. Is there something you wish to talk about? I would have found you earlier, but I've been busy getting intel on some where I'm headed next."
"Uh....." Fionn was, well, slightly confused at Tajuh's change in appearances. "I was going to ask.... Yeah, I may need a lift off this station." He was already driven to the edge of insanity by events so far, but this was just confusing. "Would you know where Slindis and Melethia are as well? I'm looking to sort a few things out before we head off...." Tajuh could tell something was off with Fionn, maybe not in terms of personality, but there was a, wrongness to the area around him.
Meanwhile.....
"I have a hard-drive here from aim and I'm going to need a Mountaindew slurpy, a new pair of shoes, exactly like the one i have, direct access to this and future popes, as well as the Vatican."
The private pulled out a form labelled "Papal access", "Sign here please, JIM! GET THIS WANKA WHAT HE WANTS!" Soon after, a few more operatives arrived, each holding one of the items Alucard requested.
