[small]"Looks like Steve is not only full of himself, but pretty fuckin' lazy. You've think that with someone like him, he'd make his own banner?"[/small] Franky commented quietly on the banners as he looked around at the walls of the hallway and ceiling before heading for the door. If he saw something suspicious, he would slow down to take it into account.

Amelia kept moving through the corridor, not eager to look back anytime soon. Looking over at the banners, she sighed and nodded in agreement to Franky's observations. [color=ff7777] "Given the fact our leader is just a glorified drug dealer, the quality of his 'leadership' shows in little things like this." [/color] She looked forward and up to the banner above the door. [color=ff7777] "Still, him being lazy could bode well for us..." [/color]

The little sister focused on Samus now. [sub]"Why? Why would you kill daddy? He was such a nice daddy..."[/sub] she muttered, looking Samus over.
[hr]
Amelia and franky would see no one in the corridor, and barring some benches and suitcases, there was nothing in the room beyond the banner.

"I'm sorry." Samus said bluntly, a bit of genuine remorse and understanding in her voice.

OoC: Off for the night.

"You need to get somewhere safe." Blondie said to the Little Sister. He tried to make his tired, gruff voice less threatening for the scared little girl.

[small]"Know exactly what you mean babe. Kinda makes our job a bit easier. Also realize I don't think I know you're name. Mine's Franky Nitro, but yah can just call me Franky, none of that Mr. Nitro."[/small] He replied quietly, not wanting his voice to travel if he could help it.

When he got to the next door he sighed. [small]"This thing was not designed for such low tech doors..."[/small] He commented slightly annoyed.

[color=ff7777] "Amelia Cross. Good to know your name, Franky." [/color] Amelia replied calmly and coolly. Looking toward the door and hearing Franky's complaints, she chuckled softly. [color=ff7777] "Let's just hope we won't run into anymore of these, shall we?" [/color] She began to walk up in front of the door, pausing before looking back down to Franky's ball. [color=ff7777] "...So what is your ball capable of? ...For my own future reference." [/color]

[small]"Amelia eh? Not bad not bad at all, I'd say it fits ya."[/small] He chuckled. [small]"That's a long list actually... To be honest, I'm a little surprised they let me through with them, but I want to get to Redline, got no time for causing trouble for the people getting me back there right?"[/small]

[small]"But I have speed boosts, lasers, multiple forms of missiles, mines, multiple environmental conditions, IR and UV vision methods, goo balls as you've seen... if you want the briefest of brief lists."[/small] Franky tried to explain, sounding a little flustered for some reason.

Amelia gave Franky a small curtsy before spinning on her heels and facing the doorway. [color=ff7777] "It's a long enough list for me to know you're much more versatile than I am as a fighter. I'm only effective as a mid-range supporting unit. So if we end up getting bombarded... much like that idiot got bombarded in the back room, I'll have to depend on you." [/color] She said, voice calm. [color=ff7777] "If or until then, let's just keeping going as we have..." [/color] She stepped forward and attempting to open the door.

[color=ff7777] ....Was his voice wavering....? ...Maybe it was something to do with his microphone...? [/color] Amelia thought, picking up on Franky being a bit flustered.

[small]"As long as you don't catch the stupid like he did, I don't see why I won't. I'm all for equality and that stuff, but I always like my lady fans, especially the one's that want to depend on me."[/small] His voice seemed to return back to its normal tongue and cheek nature, although even with such a tone, Amelia could tell he was serious about it.

[small]"And sure let's get going, until I get something installed to deal with these quietly, you're the boss there."[/small] He laughed quietly.

the door would open, revealing the room.

Inside, there were two men. He stood on a soapbox, and was screaming to a crowd only he could see. His body seemed ravaged horribly by the ADAM, leaving nothing but sores and cancerous nodules growing from him. Unlike the other splicers, he refused to wear a mask, instead proudly displaying himself. His hands seemed to be coated in welts, from which bees crawled from. The group had walked in during the middle of a statement.
"and it is the common man, the one who works for the great artists, that feed the great philosophers, that act AS THE TEST SUBJECTS for the great scientists unfettered by morality, that deserve true love! For you, and by extension I, are the ones who suffered to build this city! It was we who gave it to those namby pamby objectivists, and it was we who showed them up, wasn't it!? And now, we conquer the surface, showing that we needed not to hide from the surface dwellers! we needed only make them fear us! And then, we'll go and visit other worlds, and make them all listen to us! We're Rapture baby! and the people from here? They're GODS!" at this statement, his hands released the bees, who flew up to the ceiling, and the welts began oozing fire. He seemed not to notice Amelia and Franky, occupied with his speech. he held up both hands, as if accepting applause.

The other man had been tied to a post, and kindling in the form of several broken chairs had been scattered at his feet. He seemed bored about what was going on, and looked up with mild interest at the door opening. "Well, don't you look strange? I suppose the WAOA has sent someone to clean up this mess? do be quick about it. I can't imagine the damage this city has suffered without me at the helm for the last several hours."

"That is Steve!?" Franky said rather flabbergasted at the sight of the man to become god of the universe. Franky glanced at a monitor to his side as he noticed the mouthy man with the kindling. "Not technically part of the WAOA, but you sit tight. Not like you'll do much else..." Franky retorted back to whatever his name was. :p

"So Amelia? You want to try to take this guy in? There are a lot of people 'round here. I don't think guns blazing is wise..." He relayed to the Sheep-girl.

Looking blankly to the man grandstanding to empty space, Amelia sighed before looking to the man who had been tied up. She gave him a look over and fought the urge to openly vomit at the sight of the grandstander's various welts. Hearing the other man's quips, she tilted her head and then gave him a semi-sympathetic look. [color=ff7777] "By that tone, you must be the Ryan we've heard about.... I'm sorry to see your city's gone to waste like this... but it's to be expected when substances can do... that to people..." [/color] She said, tilting her head toward Steve as an example.

[color=ff7777] "On it, on it... ...And yes... quite the assemblage of adoring fans..." [/color] She replied to Franky, smiling a bit as she thought him to be joking about the amount of people. She'd calmly walk up toward Steve, rapier still sheathed and face serious.

The crazy Steve continued speaking. "you know who doesn't get enough love? Electricians! they keep our city powered, and what do we do for them? nothing! you don't see any electricians in great works of art, do you? no philosophy around the idea of electricians! Ryan says they pull on the great chain as well, but I don't feel their grasp!" He seemed not to notice the approach of Amelia.

Ryan sighed. "If I wished to hear your moral grandstanding, I would have spoken to your agency's leader. Now, get rid of this man, and let me out of here, so I can get to work repairing the damages!" he called out, seeming annoyed and put out.

[hr]
The little sister glanced at Blondie, before turning back to Samus. "I... I could go back home. Missus Tenenbaum always said go back to the orphanage if daddy gets hurt." she took a step towards the vent, keeping an eye on the group watching her.

Amelia rolled her eyes at Ryan before turning toward Steve and sighing, holding her rapier in front of her vertically and focusing herself. [color=ff7777] "Come forth, great lightning.... Zionga!" [/color] She pointed her rapier toward Steve and a large bolt of lightning shot forth from the tip. If it hit, it would hurt just as much as one would expect a bolt of lightning to hurt.

"And if I wanted to listen to moral grandstands, I would listen to recordings of Roboworld's government... Stuff is boring as well... good thing it ain't around any more. Now where did she..?" Franky said as he looked back over to Amelia, who was going to Steve. "Alright... I'll be over here watching this guy then." He sighed as he put his head on his hand, leaning in his chair.

When he saw the lightning fly he briefly thought of how Steve finally got to see the electrician's contribution to this hellhole, and the obvious pun.

Steve was saying "And another thing-" when the lightning hit him. He was sent flying across the room, and slammed against the lone miniature submarine, bouncing off its hull. He groaned, and rubbed his chest, which had been horribly burnt by the lightning strike, before standing unsteadily. "That. Was very rude. I. Was TALKING!" he screamed, before summoning his own electricity, firing it back at Amelia. his was less powerful, but came out as a constant stream, aiming to hit Amelia.

Amelia twirled away from the stream of lightning as Steve shot it back at her initially. Being wary of it and the distance her Zionga had created, she continued her approach toward Steve while she strafed around as well. As she ran, she threw up her hands with a shout. [color=ff7777] "Scatter....Mazio!" [/color]

Five orbs of energy appeared around Steve and shot down sporadically. Amelia didn't plan on hitting Steve with the spell, but hoped the show would distract him enough to allow her to close in more quickly. Each bolt would be much less powerful than Amelia's Zionga, but nothing to just shake off either.
