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

[FPSfanatic]

Emilia glanced down, and pointed to Tyler. "Handcuff the 'King' first." he nodded and hopped down, walking to the king with handcuffs out. Emilia called out to Jameson "Give yourself a lick of the blade!"

Jameson had thankfully dislocated several fingers, allowing his mind to take back control long enough to inflict a long thin scratch along his arm, and put his bestial mind back into the hole he kept it in. He took several deep breaths, calming himself as best he can.

[hr]
Quimbly waved. "Nicely done samus! Very nice work indeed!"
an officer was moving up to arrest the surviving gang members.

If samus examined the Jackal armed with her missile launcher, she'd see there was a lever on the bottom of the rocket launcher strapped to his arm.

 

[Kirke]

Bruce sat in the dorms, still behind the table he had found last night. At this point, he was almost certain this had been a trap, and had for that reason not slept at all. He also had his rifle on and had attached his knife as a bayonet on it.

 

[DotSlash]

Rose gave Fredrick a nod and a soft chuckle toward Mary's note as she read, lifting her mood a minuscule amount as the elevator opened up to Wheaton's office in all it's glass walled splendor. Now noticing Seras as the woman spoke, Rose's eyes narrowed slightly. [color=009933] "...I can't say that I do." [/color] She responded flatly as she turned to look forward, hiding her expression for the moment.

The jolly-looking fat man gave everyone in the elevator a warm smile and quickly motioned them to come in, a row of what looked like credit cards and smartphones lined up in order on a table in front of him. "I'm glad to see you all are doing well! Please come here and take your visa and phones and I'll answer any questions you may have about the city!" The man said with glee.

The plant girl idly rolled her eyes as she walked over and stood to the left side of Wheaton, arms crossed. He looked over toward the girl with his smile and she looked away, fighting the infectious effect of it.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Axton walked over and grabbed his card and phone, inspecting the latter more closely. "So why do we need this stuff?" he asked.

"Have you...ever been to New York? I met someone there who...looked like you." Seras said, trying to not be too pushy with her questions.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus noticed the lever on the missile launcher. Keeping her arm cannon at the Jackal's head, she shifted so she could take a closer look, and try and disarm the man.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Fredrick and Mary walked over to Wheaton and bowed in front of him as a gesture. [color=F87217]"A Privilege to Meet you Sir Wheaton, My name is Fredrick James Howlington and this is my accomplice Mary Van Drake. It is a pleasure to meet you"[/color] Fredrick said in a jolly manner as always, and held out his hand as a sign of goodwill.

Mary looked picked up her stuff and Fredrick's but was confused what they were.

Excuse Mister Wheaton but what these Items....do?

she asked via note that she held up to the jolly big fella.

 

[Chungus]

Gideon looked in suprise at Amelia's nervous outburst before defensively raising his hands. "Nah. Not at all. The procedure takes only a couple'f minutes or something like that. All things considdered, it doesn't hurt more then taking your vaccine shots." He explained. "And the other planets are... I can't exactly tell you exactly, I've never been to any'f them. Just about all'f them have higher living standards then my home planet, though. That place is the armpit'f the universe, really."
[hr]
Etemon wouldn't move as Tyler walked over to him to put the handcuffs on, only scoffing. "Have I told you you bunch o' crazies are gonna be sorry yet? 'cause, oh boy, you will."

 

[FPSfanatic]

Tyler frowned. "That's cute. Can't wait to see how you pull it off."

he walked over to Gazimon after putting Etemon in handcuffs, and pulled out a second set. "If you want to tell us about how this... man has abused you, or treated you as a slave, we'd be happy to release you after a short inquisition. You actually seem like you're intelligent."
[hr]

Samus would find the lever easily pulled, and cause the contraption to go pinging off, falling on the floor. It vibrated when Samus had touched it, and would now be vibrating heavily, as if happy to feel her touch.

[hr]
a lift would drop down into the biodome, and a man exited. he wandered in the general direction of where Bruce was. "Hey buddy, you're free to go now. You look like you've got everything you brought with you, you ready to get driven up?"

 

[DotSlash]

[color=ff7777] "O-Oh." [/color] Amelia said, calming down a bit. [color=ff7777] "Sorry, I've just... n-never heard of something like that." [/color] She gave Gideon another small nod and a bit of a frown. [color=ff7777] "It's the armpit? Is it really that bad?" [/color]

[hr]

Wheaton chuckled and shook Fredrick's hand in turn. "The pleasure's all mine, Sir Howlington. Very nice to meet you..." He turned to the others in the room. "...and the rest of you as well. Oh, Ms. Victoria." He turned to Seras, looking expectantly. "Were you able to get all of your gear? Without much trouble, I'd hope."

Looking to both Axton and Mary, the man smiled as he held up Axton's card. Each card would be teal, and have a picture of each of the people in the room, making it look like they all had sat down for a picture. "This is your visa. Everyone or at least most everyone who finds themselves in this city has one to verify that they've gone through the same process you all have. This also doubles as an emergency means of communication with us, namely when we find the world you belong to." Now holding up the phone in his other hand, he continued. "As for the phone, that's loaded with information to make adjusting to life in this bustling little city of London much easier on you all. A fully detailed map with the different districts of the city are highlighted there along with other things, like bounty agencies and fight clubs, if you're the type of person who enjoys those sorts of activities."

[hr]

Rose tilted her head. [color=009933] "Uh huh...?" [/color]

 

[Kirke]

Bruce nodded warily, then spoke. "Yeah, I am. Lemme just get into me car." He then got into his car, making sure to keep an eye on the man at all times. "Just show the way and I'll be on me way."
OoC: @FPS: Gah! Bright text!

 

[Chungus]

Etemon scoffed, but said nothing. Yeah... You go wait 'n see, sonny. I was just gonna roll on outta here once I got what I need, but now it's personal. I'll destroy you and that tasteless HQ of yours so bad, not even a Roachmon would wanna set foot there.

[color=A5ADC0]"Pheh! I ain't telling you anything. And you know why? Because we did nothing wrong, that's why!"[/color] Gazimon responded with a frown.

"That's right, sonny. You tell them 'em! And by tell 'em, I mean tell them nuthin'."

[color=A5ADC0]Oh, brother...[/color]
[hr]
Gideon chuckled slightly, waving his hand towards Amelia. "That's alright, I get it." He said with a smile, lowering his hand.

"And, yeah. It's a dump, alright. It's been getting better as time goes by, but the coming's slow. Compared to the rest of the empire, the world's as broke as a beggar, for one. The only thing we've got going for us is export from the mines. Appearantly, the ore they use in who-knows-what can't be mined anywhere else, and fetches a nice sum of cash because'f it. This also means mining's the only decent job out there. Looking back, I wish I'd gone with being a miner..." He explained, blowing a small sigh near the end.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Fredrick studied his card and phone once Mary handed them to him. [color=F87217]"I say! this is impressive to say the least..."[/color] Fredrick muttered and placed his mongol upon his left eye. [color=F87217]"Very interesting..."[/color]

Mary was a little worried about the phone, as it look liked you had to talk through it.

Please tell this device has some sort of way of communicating without speaking, like a type writer?

Mary note-asked Wheaton.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: Tell me if tis goes against what you had in mind.

Samus picked up the missile launcher, feeling it's vibration in her hand. She stepped back from the Jackal, but kept the arm cannon pointed in his direction in case he tried anything. She held the launcher next time her arm cannon, then tried pushing the two against eac other. There was a flash, her visor polarising to compensate. When the flash receded, the missile launcher was gone and the end of her arm cannon had opened, blossoming like a flower, with a missile clearly visible loaded into the barrel. She retracted the missile and closed the tip of the cannon, reverting it to it's normal position.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Oh, well...I guess I was having second thoughts about leaving." Seras said to Wheaton.

"Alright, cool." Axton said, slipping the phone and card into his pockets. "So, sombody mentioned there might be work for people who can kill effectively. Do you know anything about that?" the then asked.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Tyler sighed. wordlessly, he handcuffed Gazimon.

[hr]

The man nodded, and began wandering back to the lift. He wore old cracked leather pants, and an equally frayed white button up shirt. on his hips were two revolvers, and his face seemed badly scarred.

[hr]
The officer arrived, and started handcuffing the jackal gang leader.

OoC: @Kirke yikes! yeah, changing that to violet...
EDIT gah, that looks bad too. hmm.... guess he could be cyan as well. Was kind of hoping for a ghostly color.

@Gear works for me!

 

[Kirke]

Bruce started up the engine and followed soon after, going rather slowly.

 

[DotSlash]

Wheaton gave Mary a nod. "Yes, these phones have a lovely feature called text messaging. You'll be able to write your notes on the screen... and you won't even need to use all of that paper doing it. Now, what you need to do is...." The man then slowly and surely went through the process of having Mary type things in for display and how to type using the touchscreen of the phone, due to the phone not having a slide-out keyboard. He gave Fredrick a smile as well. "I'm glad you think so, our lab boys have worked hard on these things for you."

He tilted his head a bit as he looked toward Seras, the smile still there but lessening a bit. "What do you mean by that?"

Looking to Axton, Rose spoke up. [color=009933] "Like Mr. Wheaton said, we've got bounty boards and fight rings in this city, all completely legal. If you've got a raging bloodlust, those are the places you'll want to hit up first. They're also marked on the map in your phone. So long as you follow that, you should have little to no problem getting your hands dirty quickly. For anyone else who isn't going for something to that end, there are also job centers around the city. There happens to be one very close to the headquarters here, so you should try to go there first." [/color]

Rose then looked to the group, addressing them all. [color=009933] "That reminds me, one last important thing. There are technological and magical districts to the city. If you bring anything more advanced that an old western revolver into a magical area, it'll begin to deteriorate, perhaps past the point of all repair. If you're more of a magical inclined person, your magic won't work well and could possibly backfire on you. So make sure to be careful and mind what kind of sector you're in." [/color]

Looking to Seras, Rose tilted her head, eyes still narrowed. [color=009933] "...Really now? I was in New York at one point." [/color]

[hr]

[color=ff7777] "That kind of sounds like a city in my world..." [/color] Amelia said, putting a finger to her lower lip. She gave Gideon a sympathetic look and a nod as he explained. Her expression was suddenly replaced with a curious look as she asked. [color=ff7777] "But if you're not a miner, then what did you do for a living... before you got zapped here? I'm guessing the pay wasn't all that good." [/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus walked out of the building, leaving the police to do the cleanup.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Alright, cool. Not that I really need the cash, but maybe I'll find a good challenge at this bounty place." Axton said with a confident grin.

"Well I just...I don't have any money on me, and I didn't really want to sleep in the streets, so I thought, as long as you were offering, I would stay here. At least until I can find a job and earn some money for a place of my own." Seras said to Wheaton, looking very bashful as she spoke.

"Was...during a zombie outbreak?" she asked Rose, still being quite shy.

 

[HatchyHatch14]

Mary nodded at what Wheaton has shown her.

Thank you sir, I will show my Master the same things you've teached me

She gave a small smile to Wheaton after showing him the note.

[color=F87217]"You mean to say that someone went threw effort just for us? Oh I do feel a tad guilty now, but most humble for these gifts"[/color] Fredrick said to Wheaton, then put his mongol away in his jacket pocket. [color=F87217]"Different sectors huh? well thank you very much for the information Miss Rose"[/color] Fredrick said to her, giving her a small smile.
