We Are Our Avatars VIII: Interdimensional Jaunt. (Closed up, thanks for playing.)

[DotSlash]

@Gear: Okay then. Edited.

The bug creature just gave Fredrick a look like he was insane and then proceeded to throw a kick toward the gentleman himself. The bug's 'foot' would hit a bit harder than one would expect from such a thin leg.

The slime guy(?) bubbled and rippled a bit as Mary tried to help him(?) up, having a bit of trouble keeping himself(?) cohesive. However, he(?) managed to get up with her help and smiled at Mary. [color=990099] "Th-Thanks.... Uh... I think you should help your guy though... they seemed to take a... liking to him... I'll be fine... J-just give me a minute or two..." [/color] The slime guy(?) said in a somewhat high-pitched voice.

[hr]

As Samus took the money, Liza nodded and took her leave from the building, clopping as she walked.

[hr]

Jensen smirked in return before opening the door. The tavern looked rather well furnished, compared to the neighborhood it was located in. Lounge chairs sat around the entire area, men and aliens in suits lounged around and mingled. There were also girls dressed in risque clothes doing stripteases and pole dances all over. A man in a classic bartender's outfit was in the center of the room the two had just walked into. They hadn't caused anyone to look up toward them.

"I trust you've got this, mack. I'll get to finding things out. Remember, get on their good side and get to the fight ring. If ya fail at this... well, you've got a lotta bullets, doncha?" Jensen whispered before giving Axton a pat on the shoulder and walking off toward the larger group of lounging men.

[hr]

Amelia followed after Gideon, hands clasped behind her back as she walked. She nodded in turn. [color=ff7777] "Not to say that a-apartments are cheap either... but paying per month over paying per night would be e-easier at least..." [/color] She stated, blinking as she noticed Gideon checking the streets on a walk light. As they made it to the hotel, they'd see that Schello was a decent looking place, a warm light flooding from the revolving glass doors out onto the street. The place was a bit small looking from the outside though.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Axton casually walked over to the bar and leaned against it before shouting for the bartender's attention, assuming the place was loud enough to warrant such an action. In any case, Axton would try to get the bartender's attention.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: @Dot: No, the full fee is 5000. Samus and Liza are splitting it, so it's 2500 each.

Samus gave a stiff, unsure wave to Liza as she clopped off before heading out herself.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Unfortunely for Fredrick, having his arms crossed meant that he wasn't able to block in time and was kicked back in a similar way to the Slime Creature. [color=F87217]"Ahhh...bloody....rough scallion!"[/color] he muttered as he caught his breath and stood back up. [color=F87217]"Sir you have struck not only a innocent bystander, but a gentlemen I hope your prepared to face the consequences for that"[/color] Fredrick then dashed and punch the Bug creature where he thought it's chin was, surprisingly for a Gentlemen Fredrick knew how to pack a punch.

Mary nodded and let the Slime creature be.

Understood

the small maid wrote then stood next to Fredrick, her eyes seemed focus as with a flick of her wrist she was holding a knife between her fingers.

 

[Chungus]

"Yeah, exactly. I guess we'll have to look in ads to see if anyone's renting out space, I guess." Gideon said casually as he still looked around at the street, not seeming to notice the trafic light. Only when he saw a car drive up and stop did Gideon cross the street.

Reaching the hotel, Gideon looked the exterior of the place over, noting the name of the hotel above the revolving doors in letters made out of light, dispite there seeming not being anything the light was shined from. Wierd... Looking around more, Gideon saw someone with the top body of a man, and the lower body of a spider sticking against the wall, cleaning the windows. Gideon hummed to himself in suprise, before heading inside the hotel, and looking around.

 

[Kirke]

Bruce sighed and punched the boy hard in the gut as he began to panic. He then glanced at the others and placed a hand on his swordhilt before speaking again.
"It'd be such a shame if this had ta go any further. How 'bout one of ya start talkin' before me mate gets itchy trigger fingers?"

 

[DotSlash]

@Gear: Bleh.

The tavern wasn't the loudest place as the men mingled amongst each other and amongst the callgirls. Axton would find that the easiest way to get the bartender's attention was to walk up to the bar. It would be notable that the bartender had two devil horns sprouting from his head. He also had a curly mustache, trimmed and groomed to a sheen, as he cleaned out a glass. Noticing Axton, he gave him a not. "Afternoon, sir. What can I do for you?"

[hr]

Amelia was following after until she noticed the spider-morph cleaning the windows and she began to tremble and bit her lower lip lightly. [color=ff7777] ....Just... be calm... and it won't do anything.... Just be calm.... [/color] She took a few trembling steps into the lobby and looked around herself.

[hr]

The boy grunted as he coughed and held his gut as Bruce's fist hit home. He doubled over onto the floor while the others then began chanting their spells louder. It would be apparent that the rest of them didn't understand what Bruce had said and seemed to take it as an empty threat. Jeff sighed to himself before spinning his pistols into a firing position, making his position known. Even so, the wizards continued their chant and the atmosphere of the area began to get warmer very quickly.

Grunting, Jeff popped two shots toward a wizard's knees causing him to drop to his knees and scream in pain.

 

[FPSfanatic]

OoC Taking over for dot when it comes to you Hatchy, just a heads up.


The bug hissed with strange laughter, and jumped up to land against the side of the building, dodging the punch. It clung to the building for a moment before hopping again, bouncing from building to building to get away.

[hr]

Emilia would drop down with Gazimon at a slowed rate, as Tyler levitated them down. She would then carry him into a police car, and sit down with him. Tyler smiled, and went to start looking through the trailer for evidence.

The police cars would head to the WAOA building, with Etemon's having a sizable head start. It would drive behind the main entrance, and wait for a moment until a previously hidden door opened in the back. The police car drove in, and parked. Jameson grabbed Etemon's wrist, and pulled him out of the car roughly.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Hey, unfortunately I don't have any money for drinks. But I've heard that there are other things to do around here. Like maybe engaging in a friendly sporting event type thing. You know anything about that?" Axton asked the bartender, trying to be subtle.

 

[Kirke]

Bruce hauled the boy up and held the knife to his throat. "You better bloody tell 'em to stop or they'll all drop!" The heat did not really bother him yet, being used to scorching desert sun.

 

[Chungus]

The lobby of the hotel was well furnished, but overall, nothing to write home about in terms of luxury. Opposite the entrance of the hotel was a stairwell and an elevator leading to the floors above, with another door to the right of that that had a sign that read 'personel only' on it. The walls were painted a light brown, and the tiles were a medium-dark shade of beige, giving the place something of a retro feel. In the middle of the ceiling and on the walls in pairs of two were floating balls of light. To the left, a little closer to the entance, was the reception desk, currently manned by an eyeless humanoid person with a long face, pale-green skin and white hair.

"Uhh... Excuse me, sir...?" Gideon said as he approached the receptionist, sounding unsure as he called the receptionist sir. Having his back turned to Amelia, he didn't notice her trembling.
[hr]
"Darn-heckit, you baffoon! Be a little more careful, would ya?!" Etemon snarled as he was pulled out of the police car as roughly as he was, supressing the urge to swing a kick towards Jameson's midriff. "It ain't even been a day, and I'm already getting real sick of you humans."
[hr]
Searching through the trailer, on the lefthand side of it, Tyler would find several identical black sunglasses in the bedside table besides the small bad that looked like it could fold into the wall. On the right handside, where the terminal consisting of the studio equipment, a keyboard and three large screens, was located, there was a lunchbox filled with carrots, and three earpieces and a video camera. There was also a purple oval-shaped rug in the middle of the trailer, and a disco ball above that. Located on the opposite and of the door were several red, yellow and green coloured spotlights.

Underneath the trailer were large speakers, and ontop of the rig, the four cameras, plus the one that as shot still stuck out, and there were various other compartments on it that couldn't be opened by hand.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Fredrick simply stood there and adjusted his collar. [color=F87217]"Ha! running scared!"[/color] he said, thinking he gained a small victory today.

Mary went back to the slime creature to see if it was alright now.

 

[DotSlash]

Jeff grunted as he aimed at the other wizards, their chant stopping for a moment as the single wizard howled in pain, brought to the point of tears now. The boy was still out of it, the punch having knocked the wind out of him, not completely recognizing the demands or the knife to his throat. The wizards soon resumed, their chant angrier than before and Jeff fired twice again, capping another wizard. "We don't have enough time! Just take the kid or cap 'em all!"

[hr]

The bartender blinked as he looked to Axton and leaned in close. "Sir.... Don't speak of that in the open. We try to run a tight ship with no loose lips. Be sure to remember that." He sighed for a moment. "This is for security reasons, but I need you to answer the security question before I can show you to the area:..."

I start with the letter e,
I end with the letter e.
I contain only one letter,
Yet I am not the letter e!
What am I?" ​

[hr]

Amelia continued onward, blinking in fright at the appearance of the receptionist. Already being a little bit spooked, Amelia's hand began to drift toward the hilt of her rapier, shaking a bit as she did.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...How many guesses do I get?" Axton asked, as he wasn't very good with riddles or other such things.

 

[FPSfanatic]

the slime creature burbled, looking at Mary. "Uh... T-thanks for that save. That guy was being rough!" it said in its high pitched voice.
[hr]
Jameson didn't say anything, still pushing Etemon. He carried him to a small elevator, and pushed the button, sending them down fast.
[hr]
Tyler muttered "Interesting." and began following the cables from the screens, if they had any cables, looking for the desktop.

 

[Kirke]

Bruce grunted in annoyment and shoved the boy against the others. When he got close he pushed away with force to try and knock one over using the boy. He then punched one hard and threw his knife at the leg of another.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Fredrick walked over to the slime and Mary. [color=F87217]"I say though, are you quite alright there fella?"[/color] he asked the slime.

Why were they trying to start a fight with you anyways? and your most welcome

Mary held up the note for the slime to read.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: @FPS Check chat.

 

[DotSlash]

And then all the wizards got knocked out or were on the floor, rolling around in pain. Jeff picked up the boy Bruce had knocked out and hefted him over his shoulder. "Alright... There should be some place to interrogate this kid once he comes to.... Follow me." The man said flatly as he walked forward.

[hr]

"One, sir. Based on that, are you just going to give up?" The bartender asked flatly, both his hands still working on the glass.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"I'll give you the answer when I'm ready." Axton said before walking off to find Jensen.
