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

[Drakmorg]

The creature stopped somewhat close to Thrall, though with decent space still between them. "Oh, you wanna know mah name? Uhm, well folks call me Sibylla." It replied. "And ah don't rightly know whut that noise is." It took a moment to point over towards the murlocs, not quite seeming aware that the room was too dark for it to really matter. "Ah think it must'a been that nasty critter over there. Ain't never felt anything like it."

 

[FPSfanatic]

The statue struggled for a moment longer, before collapsing on the ground, its shield falling from its grip and, if Samus continued pulling, dragged to her. It quickly used its one working arm to try and pull itself up, its sword arm sitting awkwardly.

"This was told to the group sent, but I see no problem informing you." Sarah said, after some internal debate. "The legitimate leader of rapture, who had sworn to keep his people away from us and any universe travelling people, was deposed and had a crazy bastard who'd happily lead an invasion on us as soon he could put in power. We wanted to send a legitimate team to put this warlord out of power and the rightful ruler back in, but no one was available. Faced with the idea of several thousand people dying in a sudden attack, I made the choice to send your friends in the hope that it would stop the threat."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus let go of the shield as the statue lost it's grip, then attacked the statue again, lashing out with the whip, aiming for it's remaining working arm.

OoC: Off for a bit.

 

[Zepherus14]

With Franky realizing that he couldn't really roll through the forest like he'd hoped, and not wanting to walk on his own (didn't really know what kinds of wildlife was there.) he instead headed back to the picnic area, although took a different route around where the trees weren't quite as thick.

 

[Chungus]

"You took a bit of a gamble there, if you ask me. Sending people who you know next to nothing about into the fray to do something important like that, instead of pulling a team from something less important and have them deal with it. Sending them out there could've easily made things a whole lot worse." Gideon responded, then paused for a moment. "And I wouldn't call the lot of them my friends, exactly. I barely know them."

Once Franky rolled his way back to the picnic area, Gideon glanced over towards the ball once Gideon took note of it from his peripheral vision. "Not much to see out there?" He asked.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Blondie eventually led his mule back to the picnic.

 

[Zepherus14]

Franky rolled up shortly after Gideon spotted him. He then popped out of the hatch about a minute after it stopped, and flicked his ear. "Frankly a little too much to see. Too many trees for me to really let loose ya know. Can't wait to get the lead out..." He said.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Sarah shrugged. She seemed to consider how to respond, before saying "Gamble paid off."
[hr]
Franky, while looking for a different route, would find a number of trees surrounding a crashed ship.
[hr]
The Chozo raised its barely working arm, only for it to be completely locked in place by Samus's attacks. It became immobile, and waited a moment, before echoing out the words *You fought well, daughter of chozo. May your every battle be worthy of memory, and may you never forget the home you come from.* a section of its back opened up, revealing an area large enough for Samus to enter, though it would require her climbing into the remains.

 

[Zepherus14]

Previously:

Franky stopped for a moment as he noticed the crashed ship, rather surprised by it as it loomed in front of him. 'Wow... that's different.' He said as he went towards it.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Franky, approaching it, might see several decals on the ship, though it would be difficult to tell its overall shape, as it was coated in fallen trees and growing moss that extended along the hull of the vessel. He would get a chance to see decals of a bunny and flames on a strange column that seemed to jab out of part of the moss blanket, along with a few strange columns, and a bubble cockpit.

 

[Chungus]

"Might want to reconsidder in the future, though." Gideon commented casually, looking to Serah. He thought for a moment of bringing up the fact that not everyone had returned, and presumed this was because they died in the field, but decided against it. Afterall, they went out of their own free will.

Looking to Franky, Gideon nodded. "That makes two of us. All this greenery makes for a pretty picture, but I'm not too fond of just sitting around."

 

[Zepherus14]

'What is this...' He thought to himself as he looked the ship over, the decals were rather striking, and made him narrow what the ship could actually be. He went around to the ship to look over the design to the ship to see what it could be.

[hr]

"Right, I guess for me it comes with the occupation. Can't sit still all that well for long periods."

 

[Kirke]

Above a large robust oak some distance away from the group, at the edge of the clearing, a rather large portal opened. Dust and warm air seeped through for a second or two, then a car fell through. It landed in the tree with a snap of branches. The engine ran for a second or two before being turned off.

Spoiler: The car in question

OoC: Finally hopping into the thread, in my usual fashion.

 

[Chungus]

"For me, it's a question of..." Gideon began to answer, but then trailed off for a moment as he thought how to best put his thoughts to words. "I just get bored easily if I don't have something to do. I don't really enjoy slow moments in a day, if that makes much sense." He finally answered.

After the portal opened up, and the car fell through, Gideon looked over his shoulder, looking to the general direction the sound came from. "Huh?"

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: Back.
@Kirke: That looks like a Victorian Batmobile. I want it.

Samus retracted her whip as the Chozo statue forfeited, putting her weapon back into gun mode and holstering it. She walked towards it as the segment opened, and climb inside without fear or hesitation.

 

[Zepherus14]

"Um... What?" Franky was just as surprised at Gideon was as the car fell out of the sky, and anxiously took a glance above them as well just for the slim chance there was another car coming there too.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Samus entering the statue would cause it to close, for a moment.

OoC: @Gear you handle it from here, she gets the Varia suit. I trust you can take care of it.

Franky would find that, upon closer inspection, the ship looked like so.

Spoiler: the ship

only eaten badly by age, and wrapped in vines. Along one of the inner pylons were the words 'Earth Forever' and on the other, written 'Team 8'. The cockpit was closed, and the columns he'd seen jutting from the vessel was a turret on the side.
Franky would see a strange sylized bunny painted in pink on the cockpit.
[hr]
The person driving the car would find a strange piece of paper with the number 8001 labeled on it in his hands.

 

[Kirke]

The side window was winded down and a head popped out, looking around before looking down. He seemed just as stunned if not more than the two observers. After a moment he noticed Gideon in the distance. He touched his brow in greeting before calling out in a vaguely Australian accent.
"'Allo mate! You wouldn't happen to know what just happened, would ya?" As he touched his brow, he noticed the note in his hand. Having more pressing matters at hand, he shoved it down in a pocket after a glance.

OoC: @Gear: Pretty much. It suited the primitive future look I had in mind. I should mention that the one in thread is much more banged up and dirty. Like it has been in a desert for years without cleaning.

 

[Chungus]

"Well..." Gideon began to respond to the man who poked his head from the window of the car, but trailed off as thoughts of suprise regarding the man's appearant lack of injury after falling from the sky in the car. "My guess is that you've just been transported to another world or universe, or something along those lines." He answered, before pointing towards Serah. "She'll be able to tell you more, I'm sure."

 

[Zepherus14]

'As much as I want to explore something like that, I have no idea what is in this thing... On the other hand, if these people have left this for so long that vines are growing on it... They must think it is safe...' Franky mulled it over. The ship definitely looked interesting, but knowing that his own had nearly exploded when it arrived had made him a little leery on fooling around with others.

He decided he might at least call out and see if there might be a computer system still functioning within. "Hello? Start? Ignition..?" He shouted at it for a moment.
