"Blood? The females of your kind can get pregnant from blood, even when it comes from an other creature?" Erica asked in a tone that sounded equally confused as Nanami was. "I've heard of the moons affecting a people, but never reproducing via blood... Interesting." As she finished her breakfast, she thought on what Nanami had said, more so since Nanami herself didn't seem to sure. Without anything more to go on, however, her speculating didn't get very far. Laying the empty plate aside, Erica looked back to Nanami. "Anway. Earlier, you mentioned someone named... Rook? Who is that?"

Pix nodded. [color=80bb00] "The blood's all over the place so you're gonna get some of it on ya. I can clean it up though, so no worries." [/color] Pix said as she picked the lock. What Solaris would see is Ness' body torn up and mangled, dismembered body parts and innards strewn around the room and the majority of the room being red with the woman's blood, instead of the steel gray it was before. She'd also see the respawn machine sparking sporadically, though it looked to be completely fine.

[hr]

Vera's chassis continued to billow out steam for a good few long moments before nothing happened. The steel body was still afterward, making zero movements.

Entering the room after Pix picked the lock, Solaris reeled back once the rank smell hit her. "My, my... It looks like a dozen or so grenades detonated under her..." She said. Although she realed back, her voice was as matter-of-factly as it was always, not showing any signs of being shocked at the sight. Stepping further into the room, her footsteps making sploshing noises as she moved over the gore-covered foor, Solaris closed the door behind her, and locked the door, not wanting anyone barging in and thinking she was responsible for Ness' death.

Looking around the room more, she picked up on the sparks coming from the revival pod. "Hmm... So, my first thoughts here are that she either died, and then came back not quite as intended due to a malfunction, or that she tried to tamper with the revival device, and it ended up horribly backfiring." She said as she approached the pod.
[hr]
[color=915f6d]"M-Miss Robot...?"[/color] Selim asked as he approached Vera's chassis closer, gently poking against her cheeck when close enough to do so.
[hr]
"Uhh... I'm not sure what you mean there." Erica responded. "Things would be easier if Rook was here, is that what you're saying?"

Pix shrugged a bit, flowing off of Solaris as the door was locked behind her. [color=80bb00] "Both would be things that the higher-ups would've hated... Kinda glad I wasn't the one to have to deal with this first... We might wanna rethink that plan 'B' if this ends up being a result of trying to mess with the revival machines." [/color] She said sighing a bit, her feet slowly turning as red as Ness' blood and the rest of her body slowly becoming the same color as well.

[hr]

The chassis continued to do nothing as Selim poked it.

"Hmmm... Possibly, yes." Solaris remarked. Not seeing anything in paticular at the revival pod, she glanced back to Pix for a moment, before looking around the rest of the room. "Although, I have a theory: Have you noticed that when someone dies and comes back, their old body remains? So, then everyone who has died here is essentially a copy of what came before... somehow. Now who's to say the overseers can't destroy these copies as easily as they can create them? But, since neither of us died, we don't need to fear that." She stated, walking over to one of the various body parts, and looking down on it. "Not that I'm willing to risk that... but it's something to investigate."

With that said, Solaris looked up from the body part, to Pix again. "If you eat any of these body parts, would you add the late Vanessa's abilities to your own, or are these parts too small for that?"
[hr]
With Vera not responding to Selim poking the chassis, Selim became more distraught and began shaking her. When this too didn't work, he whimpered, and bolted out of the room.
[hr]
"Ah, I see." Erica said with an understanding nod. "Unfortunately, we can't leave here; there is no exit. I have been trying to find us a way out through magic, but I haven't had any luck so far." She continued, her expression becoming a bit more dark.

Nanami looked just as conflicted, if not more so by hearing this. "II ccaan nnott. Nnoot liike llasst. Nnott ssamee..." She said as her grip tightened somewhat. "III hhavve ffammilly."

Pix nodded, giving a small hum in agreement. [color=80bb00] "I can't really see why that wouldn't be a feasible explanation. And I'll see if I can scoop her up. I've never really absorbed someone who was blown to bits before..." [/color] Pix began to slither around absorbing all the gore Ness exploding had created. Once she was done, Pix's form adjusted a bit, a small goo fedora sitting atop her head. [color=80bb00] "Hmmm.... This feels pretty weird..." [/color] Suddenly, there was a gurgling noise emanating from Pix and she looked down to her own gut. [color=80bb00] "....Huh? What the--?" [/color] Suddenly, Pix shrieked as she imploded on herself and then exploded, sending spatters of goo all over the room, mixing with the blood. Eventually, the blood soaked goo evaporated, leaving no trace of anything transpiring.

"You were taken away from your family...? Oh... I'm sorry to hear that." Erica responded sympethetically, closing her eyes momentarily. "I'm doing everything I can to find a way out, but as I've said, I haven't had much luck thus far. What would normally alow me to leave this place seems to be jammed here... It's said that the winner of this tournament is send back to their own world, but frankly, I don't believe that."
[hr]
When Pix mentioned things didn't feel quite right after ingesting the pieces of gore, Solaris raised an eyebrow. "Maybe you sh--" Her sentance was cut short, however, when Pix exploded in a shower of goo. Solaris grunted, and moved her hands infront of her face to shield it, with minimal success. With a grunt, Solaris lowered her hands soon after, and looked around the room, now covered in the remains of Pix, and later, not even that when it evaporated. Solaris stared in disbelief for a moment, before scoffing. "Damn it..." This set me back a great deal... With a grunt, Solaris left Ness' room.

"Thank you." She said as she looked to Erica, her face looking saddened for good reason, but Erica's words were comforting at least.

"Eeriica nnott taalkk ttoo Vvaanneessa? Sshee smmarrt too?" Nanami asked.

Ragnar sat on his bed with the door open, slowly and methodically stripping down his bolter and anointing it with sacred oils, chanting as he began to fit each component back together. The ritual helped him take his mind off of the tough decision that Kenna had unknowingly placed on him, and would ensure that he was at his full murderous potential regardless of what the ultimate outcome of his crusade might be.

The announcing system in Ragnar's room hummed gently before telling him that a challenger was waiting for him in the arena.
[hr]

"Hello, and welcome to the Evilington Interdimensional Arena. Please, follow the lights in the floor."

Ragnar looked up from his bolter as the announcement sounded.
A request to fight me? That's new. Who... He drew in a sharp breath. He had offered Kenna his ministrations if she thought she was about to lose control. If that was what this was... He reassembled his bolter with quick, practiced efficiency and rushed for the locker room to don his power armour.

In the other locker room, the Meta sharpened his bruteshot by drawing a whetstone down the length of it, then stood up and marched into the arena.
[hr]

The lights would lead the new arrival to the same locker room as Ragnar was currently donning his armour.

OoC: So Ragnar is around 228 cm tall, the Chief 213 and I'd say the Meta is slightly taller, just under 220 cm.

Ragnar worked quickly, the locker room's equivalent of a servitor rig helping him to armour up. He racked a magazine of bolter shells into the reciever and thumbed the activation rune on his chainsword, giving the teeth an experimental spin before beginning to march for the door.

OOC: To repeat after Lasky in Forward Unto Dawn, how old are the Spartans? Do they grow really fast, or do they take centuries to fully mature?

The new arrival stumbled into the locker room, disorientated by the sudden change in scenery. A panicked female voice coming in over his speakers. "Chief! Chief, are you alright?"
The figure cut off his external speakers so the others in the room couldn't hear him talking, then spoke to the female voice. "I'm fine." He said, his voice gravelly.

@Berk: All Spartans are chronologically in their 40's by the time of the first game, though between their augmentations, the long cryo sleeps and constant warfare, how old their biological age is could be anyone's guess.

OOC: @Gearhead mk2: Heh, so Ragnar is the tallest of the three of them despite being significantly younger than both Spartans. :p

"Move aside, move aside!" Ragnar urged Master Chief as he entered, quickening his pace to get to the arena and find out if his suspicions were true.

The doors opened as the announcer asked that the two would enter the arena. At the other side of it, the Meta was pacing back and forth with his bruteshot in hand.
OoC: @Random berk: Really? I thought Ragnar was older than that.
