The Escapist Avatar Adventure: An Open RP (Now Re-Opened!)

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Snake pulls out a Cigar and lights it.
Taking a long deep puff, he says "The Joint Chiefs get real edgy when you lot are talked about, The Lab at Aperture, The Battle for Blacknoah, You've shown that you are all capable of taking down entire armies, They want to make sure that they are not one of their's, Now in exchange for your loyalty, I'm told that you will be allowed to call upon the Entire US Army, Air force, Marines, Navy, as long at it is not a Nuke. However, you will have to make a statement saying that your ship and your crew are allies of the US, Those are the terms, do we have an agreement?"

 

[bluerocker]

Caim and Angelus looked to one another, and then Caim started to speak,
"Look, no offense Snake, but don't you think now is a bit of a messed up time to talk about this sort of thing? I mean, we're all trapped on a ship in the middle of gods knows where, and we have no idea what's going on. We might not even be close to the right planet anymore! I say we worry about the current problems at hand, and then worry about this allegiance stuff later."
Angelus nodded to Caim and continued, "And while your conditions sound good enough; and you seem to be a trustworthy individual, I don't know if you're word will be enough for some of us, myself and Caim included. Perhaps after this venture is done with, we can speak to your leaders ourselves... Is that doable?"

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman sat in the corner of the room on a chair waiting ever so patiently. He used his watch communicator to send a message " how are we going to get out of here?"

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

"Wait...so this Ins't the Rising Dawn?...Huh...I knew the Teleport was damaged but...Alright, Politics were never my strong point anyways..." Snake answered as he put out his Cigar.
"So what needs to be done?..." He asked.
"Well from what I can gather, This ship is somewhere in space but the crew are no-where to be seen, so first things first is to figure out where the hell we are..." Tomoya answered.
"Think I got just the Man for the job..." Snake grinned as he called Sigint

[color=darkorange]"Yo, Snake, need something?"[/color]
"Sigint, would you be able to jack into the Ship's computer systems?"
[color=darkorange]"Awwwww Shit! the deal go sour?[/color]
"Nononono, just need some help with the navigation, can you do that?"
[color=darkorange]"Sure, Be nice to get out of this crappy headset."[/color]

He hung up and said "if you can get me to the Bridge, I have a man here who can help you out."

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman stood up before anything was said and headed to the tram.

 

[bluerocker]

Angelus chuckled at the sound of Signat's voice. The personalities amused her greatly, she waved Snake to follow, and said, "We're working on that, Pointman. Perhaps these computer beings will aid us..."
Naturally, Caim followed after the dragon and Snake, Big n Nasty dragging along with him.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

The Tram reached the Bridge.
After several minutes of looking for a USB slot, Caim of all people was the one to find it.
Following instuctions from Sigint, Snake set up the Data transfer, allowing Sigint to access one of the remaining monitors.
A computer model of the Man himself came up.

He stretched outwards and said

[color=darkorange]"Ahhhhh...put in 16 Giga-bytes they said, There would be enough room they said...Tch, I said a Terra-byte for a reason!, uuhhh...Sigint of the US army, Pleasure to meet you all, right, now what's the problem?"[/color]

"We are lost...in space...somewhere...sometime..." Dillon confessed.

[color=darkorange]"...Ah...I see...yeeeaahhh thats a problem all right, gimme a sec..."[/color]

He said as he began to root though the ship's main systems.

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman decided to take a seat near the computer screen. Just then he heard a scraping sound coming from above. It was there one second and the next it scuttled off. Pointman was now more alert than ever standing up and taking watch.

 

[bluerocker]

Caim, who was paying more attention to the dealings with the computers, looked over to Pointman, and noticed his tensed posture, "You alright, Pointman?"

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman responded through his comm, "I heard something... above us....." .

 

[bluerocker]

Caim looked up, pulled out Big n Nasty, and jabbed up. There was a twisting creak, and there was a sizable hole in the top.
Angelus turned around and saw Caim creating a ruckus, "What are you doing, you great fool?!"
Caim readied himself for a jump, dropping Big n Nasty in the process, drawing his magnum, and said, "Pointman said he heard something, I'm going to investigate."
With that, he jumped up into the hole he made, and caught himself before falling down again.
Angelus looked at her partner with panic, "CAIM! Please, think rationally for once in your idiotic, simpleminded, human life! Don't go in there! If Pointman heard something, Gods only know what could be in there!"
Caim then concentrated for a moment, then he felt the link act up again,
"I'll let you know if I hear anything, you great worrying lizard. Calm down. Just tell the others I'll be right back. Please?"
The dragoness sighed, and relaxed, "Keep your comm open at all times, you hear?"
From outside the hole, Caim stuck a hand out, and signaled a thumbs up, "Rodger!"

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Sigint Noticed Caim's Movement though the Vents above the Bridge.

[color=darkorange]"Scanner seem busted, Watch yourself up there."[/color]

He radioed to Caim.
Snake kept a hand near his Rifle should something need shooting.

 

[bluerocker]

"Got it."
Caim walked along, crouched over, his magnum at ready, and the sheath to his sword loosened. He wasn't exactly happy with his surroundings, but he kept the link with Angelus open. Her presence in his mind helped him keep calm.

Angelus on the other hand, was sitting now, her eyes closed, and fully concentrated on Caim. This place was a tad taxing on the bond, as the pact was lessened here, but like this, she was able to watch through his eyes, and monitor what was going on. With every step Caim took, Angelus was able to relay new data on his behalf. However, she gathered she probably wouldn't be able to move much, or the connection might be lost.

Caim was advancing slowly, and he noticed, there was a sizzling sound. Looking to his right, he saw a liquid of some kind; and an acrid smell entered his nostrils. "Phew! You see that, dragon?" It was burning slowly into the metal next to him, and

"Yes Caim, it would be best to report it..."

Caim called up the communicator, and reported, "There's some kind of greenish fluid here. It smells bad and it's burning into the walls, and I'm pretty sure we didn't have anything to do with it... It appears nothing but construction has been harmed, but I don't like the look of it... I'm going to keep going..."

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

"Green Fluid?..." Snake repeated to himself as Caim advanced onwards.
The Rest of the group became edgy and awaited Caim's report.
Snake was deep in thought as he tried to remember where he was told that...

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Mokou wasn't as much on edge as the others, seeing as she'd never seen Alien before. But she could add up two and two, and the dead man, plus now this weird fluid, was pretty unnerving. "Could that be related to the dead crew?" she asked. "That that man's chest was ripped open from inside..."

 

[bluerocker]

Caim edged on ahead, his eyes open and searching side to side for any sides of movement. Then he heard a hiss. Out from nowhere, a shadow darted at Caim.
"Shit!"
Caim fired his magnum several times, hitting the shadow and causing it to shirk back. Caim, in his haste, pulled out his sword, and yelled,
"I see something, but it's too dark to tell exactly what! Watch out down there!"
"Caim, get out of there!"
"Lemme see if I can damage it first!"

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Caim stabbed the "Thing" in the shoulder, stopping it and leaving it's dark face mere inches from his own.
The Wound sprayed out more of the Green Fluid from earlier all over Caim's Arm.
He cried out as did the Voices of Sword and Comet as the Green Blood ate at them.
Had it not been for the sword taking most of the spatter, Caim would've lost his arm.
Once he pulled the sword out, the beast screamed and backed away.

As this was going on, Sigint was distracted.

[color=darkorange]"I don't get what your so worried about, Sure it's green acid but that doe- heyheyhey, wadda doing?!"[/color]

He said to Para-Medic as she uploaded herself onto the Ship and Shoved Sigint away.

[color=seagreen]"CAIM! GET OUT OF THERE RIGHT NOW! MOVE IT!"[/color]

she shouted though the Radio.

 

[bluerocker]

Angelus let out a grunt of pain, gripped her right arm, and called out,
"Fly, you great fool!"
"AARGH! You don't have to tell me twice!"

Caim was still reeling from the compounded physical and mental blows, and with a wobbling effort, started running back the way he came. Firing his pistol over his shoulder, Caim ran, his legs screaming from the cramped conditions. Before he could properly rationalize getting out, he found himself pitching forward and falling through the hole he entered from.

Angelus, despite feeling an intense burning in her arm, ran forwards (before Caim fell out) and positioned herself under the hole. Almost like a choreographed cue, Caim fell out of the vent as soon as the dragon had moved herself. Bracing her legs, she caught Caim with a slight "Oof!" and fell backwards. Caim's sword and magnum clattered to the ground, and another shrieking hiss filled the air.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Snake and Pointman unloaded on the fleeing "thing" though the vents, firing at the roof.
Once the firing stopped, it was clear that the beast fled.
Para-Medic Let out a sigh or relief.
"Para-Medic, What the Hell was that?!" Snake shouted as he reloaded on the spot.

[color=seagreen]"Well that was An- huh....who are you? U|\|D3R 0RD3R 0Ph $70R/\/\$|-|4U|\|, 7|-|15 p057 15 r37(0|\|'D, L4-L1-LU-L3-L0![/color]

Para-Medic was cut off.

[color=darkorange]"Para? you there?! Hello?!"[/color]

 

[000Ronald]

Boss was in the armory, picking out a weapon. Edge walked up to Boss and tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey. We caught up."

"Awesome." Boss said. "You missed the giant robot."

"And your powers are gone." Boss nodded. Edge shook his head. "I can handle this. Robots are easy; they have wires you can rip up."

Boss picked out the pistol he showed Snake earlier. "I'm not useless here, either. I'll do what I can."
