As soon as the last rampaging lizard fell unconscious, Jacqueline staggered to her knees, yet quickly reassociated herself with a somewhat transient balance. She clasped her right hip with her crossed left palm, and whispered quietly:

The Bogscale toxic ingrained itself into my wound, which means it's probably found its way into my bloodstream...

She glanced over to the other party members, quickly assessing their wounds with a silent glance: one for Karmen, one for Angie, a glance-and-a-half for Dirge, and another for everyone else. Jacqueline sighed in relief; it seemed that her wound was the only one that had fully contracted the Bogscales' noxious effect. She tapped at the wound, wondering:

How could I handle this? What to do, what to do... I need to find a way... I need to adapt... Adapt...

With a quick shake of her head, and a childish squint, Jacqueline stood tall: "Well done, guys! Let's go a little deeper; there are probably a few more in some of the safer, darker tunnels." Illuminating the way with a glowing, nearly dandelion-esque fungus she plucked from a pile of muck abandoned in a corner, the young botanist skipped rhythmically. After a minute or two of turning questionable corners and walking up and down staircase after staircase, the party approached yet another semi-flooded tunnel coated with Bogscale eggs, layers of skin that had been shed, and several astray, sludge-covered rocks.

At the back of cavern, two lizards lurched over their young, gazing at the party with deep black eyes. They almost appeared humanoid: walking on two legs, hissing a sort of language -- that certainly wasn't English, but it was a language, that's for sure. The two mothers retracted from their young, and stood upright:

"Why..." They hissed in acetic tongue, "What are you doing here? Why have you come here?... Why?"

The fight was over. The monster had been destroyed, and Sallete could take a deep breath. Her throat burned strongly, almost like she was breathing in thorns. She spat a thick lump of uncoagulated blood. In the heat of battle she didn't realise, but now she could feel her veins burning. Poison, probably. Well, she was a strong girl, maybe she could handle it. Sallete was never very good at common sense, as one can see.

The engineer wandered around the sewers, following Jacqueline, only half counciously. The pain distracted her from the world, from everyone but who she had to follow, and why did she have to do it? Also, that haze in her mind... Jackie seemed...strange too. Was she wounded by the lizards too? Sally couldn't remember.

It wasn't long before they located more enemies. Those lizards were walking on two legs? And talking? That was new. Dragging her Engine Sword behind, Sally took position, and started the machine, her gaze still unfocused, she said nothing, what is really a hint that something was not OK.

Sallete starts at E8.

by Zerifachias Wed Dec 05, 2012 7:04 pm

Angie had to throw away her hastily-made rifle. It wouldn't work any more, after the last shot the whole thing jammed up and refused to work. So she scrapped it, turning the material back into its raw form and shoving it back down into the ground. She was good at that kind of work too, it didn't take much effort for her to remember the original form of her creations. While she was at it, Angie noticed something else. A small, red gem lying on the ground just below her feet. Her eyes lit up the moment she saw the rock, she knew exactly what it was.

A ruby. Angie hastily picked the gem up before anyone else could notice it and immediately stored it in her pocket. Rubies were her third-favorite gems, right behind emeralds and sapphires. Granted, it was still in an uncut form, but that could be easily done. Angie remembered cutting her first gem, a carnelian. It wasn't the prettiest gem, but did offer her experience in cutting gems. She sold it to a jeweler later and got a good amount for it too.

She would show Karmen her lucky find later. For now, she followed the others and stopped with the others, not really caring about what was happening. It was just some more disgusting creatures to take care of. What could possibly go wrong?

Angie starts at G-8

by Omega Soul Thu Dec 06, 2012 9:33 am

He had been scratched.. His left arm was scratched badly and it felt as if all the energy was slowly being drained out of him. He licked his lips and trudged on behind everyone, trying to connect to Earth and cure his ailment. He would tap into Air when he was falling a bit too far behind and his lighter steps would catch up to everyone. His blinks were long and dragged out, and his lips kept drying. Was he thirsty, or was this the brink of Death? He nearly bumped into the rifle girl.. Angie? She seemed to pick something up with a dull red glow to it. Not like it mattered, even if they struck a vein of gold they needed to get out of here alive first. Glaring at the speaking lizards (He was pretty sure he was hallucinating by now) his Discharged orbs started to swirl around him and he took the best position he could for fighting.

Jojo starts at E-9

by Kurio Thu Dec 06, 2012 3:41 pm

Vanessa was relatively unscathed. She had only been targeted once by the reptilian creatures that last fight and her battle suit had been able to minimize the damage to her body from that strike. She continued on with the rest of the group, taking note of the red gemstone Angie seemed to have recently picked up.

The combat engineer, being one of the people who hadn't really been hurt that battle, was quick to notice something about her friend Sallete, whom she had followed behind. The girl was unusually quiet, and even stranger was that she stayed silent when they were met with more hostile creatures. Usually she would have something to say to everyone, but no she wasn't even making a sound.

"Sallete, are you alright?" Vanessa asked with a slightly concerned tone.

Vanessa starts at cell D-8

Dirge starts at F8!

Dirge did not bother to dismiss her violin, instead choosing to keep it tucked under her arm as the group walked further into the tunnel. The second she heard the hissing she frowned. So these things could talk? Creepy. Dirge did not let their enemies see the effect they had on her, however; her visage remained as stone. Placing the instrument in the crook of her neck once more, Dirge prepared for the coming battle.

by **Masquerade** Fri Dec 07, 2012 7:41 pm

Just like that, the battle had been over. There was no doubt that the struggle had been swift, only encompassing several minutes. Karmen's aura dissipated along with the birds that had formed to do his bidding in battle. It had been rather lackluster now that he thought about it. He glanced at the two new...were they students? By their age, that seemed to be the case. Odd that they were just nonchalantly journeying about in the sewers, but it was probably for the best that they were there so they could help out. Made things go along a whole lot more quickly that way. However, before any introductions could be made or anything of the like, Jacqueline decided to persuade the group to move on in an effort to do a more thorough job. Karmen merely shrugged, a grimace on his face. It was better that they make sure that the job was completely done so they wouldn't be forced to come back down here. As such, he followed everyone wordlessly sticking close to Angie who seemed to be holding something, but he decided against pestering her for the moment, though he knew he could never annoy her.

Karmen starts at G9.

Karmen's thoughts scattered as he realized that their job was not complete. These things have the ability to speak, he thought to himself while producing his book, the black aura surging to life around him with the two black birds forming and perching upon his shoulders. By their words they seemed surprised, and judging by the eggs, they were mothers-to-be, but the group of students couldn't let that happen. The current plague of lizards was apparently annoying enough for the school to take action. There was no way they could let those eggs hatch, and in order to get to them, the mothers had to be taken out. It's a dog eat dog world. Tough shit.

Rothaire starts at C-9.

by Durn Sun Dec 09, 2012 9:54 pm

Jacqueline starts at D9.

Jacqueline squinted, carefully examining the physique of the reptilians before her and her allies; one thing stuck out to her, for sure. The three, less evolved lizards at the frontlines of combat garnered very... unique wounds. Though they, at first, appeared to be no more than a typical combination of cuts and slashes, upon closer inspection, they seemed to emit a very faint, yet present, neon green glow. Were they... healing?

"Be careful." Jacqueline muttered as she held her palm out before her bosom, preparing to conjure another flower for combat.

The sewers were a great place to connect to Earth, and he assumed that Fire would help everyone clear out the monsters again. Licking his very dry lips he decided to get whatever he could over and done with. "Blazing flame, Crackling fire, The quickened pulse of heart's desire, let no man or beast, keep you tame!" One of his Discharged orbs turned a bright red, the familiar blast of hot air and the adrenaline rushing through their bodies. Changing his stance to a more grounded one, his voice became heavy and he began to recite. "Cave of darkness, Standing stone, the celebration of flesh and bone. With Stillness, the power of silence, I invoke you!" The second of the three Discharged orbs turned a mighty forest green, the earth began to shake and rumble, and a sudden silence took over the room. Everyone's bones feeling bigger, muscles almost tighter and their bodies feeling like stone.

Jojo casted Channel Fire/Earth
50% of his maximum CE
18/35 CE Remaining

The party gains 10% extra STR and INT.
the party gains 15% extra DEF.

Frowning that the enemies were to the west of him, rather than the north; he decided he may have to move at some point. No real good ideas in moving now, so he decided that he would be one with the Earth, and simply be still.

Jojo waits.

Sallete's vision was blurred, everything was confusing, but the girl knew she had a few lizards to deal with. There was a voice talking to her, however. Was it...Vanessa? She could not say. She could not be sure what words she said. It was all so blurry. Well, no time to rest, however. It would probably wear off in a sec, even if the burning feeling in her guts and the liters of sweat coming from her skin stated otherwise.

She turned the button and felt the familiar heat coming from the blade. She thought of saying something clever, but when she openend her mouth, she felt vomit coming up. Sallete swallowed it back, feeling the disgusting taste of bile burning her throat. Yep, no funny comments.

Karmen uses Whitest Down! [Allows use of White abilities]

Karmen moves to F9.

Karmen uses Banner! Everyone is affected! [Bestows Bravery]

CE: 21/35

The black aura surrounding Karmen was quick to fade, the blackbirds swirling into the darkness before disappearing completely. It took merely an instant for a white blazing radiance to surge to life around him, beautiful white doves emerging from white fire in the air before descending and landing on Karmen's shoulders. Karmen's robes turned from black to white, and when all had become settled, he fixed his hair a bit and brushed off his robes. He hadn't planned on shifting, but with everyone gathered in one place, he figured he wouldn't have a better opportunity to bestow his blessings upon them. "In the sky. That's where you'll find the inspiration again," he stated quietly, lifting a hand into the air. Golden sparkles glittered to life and began to mend together to form a lengthy banner with black scrawling upon it that happened to be an unknown language. The doves took off quickly to catch the banner by the ends, holding it up for all of Karmen's allies to see. Though the words were indecipherable, the message of strength and resolve was just as clear as it had been last time, and when that message had been assuredly taken in by the viewers below, both the doves and the banner were engulfed in white fire before being scattered by a light breeze. Both doves reformed on Karmen's shoulders from the white aura surrounding him.

"Let's try and not be too reckless, yeah?" Karmen stated nonchalantly, his gaze mostly focused on Angie. From the last encounter with the extermination targets, Karmen had been alerted to the true strength of these particular students, and then there were his own vast capabilities that had to be taken into account. It was odd that such talented students were forced to perform community service. I wonder if the Headmaster is afraid of us, Karmen mused absently to himself. He wasn't one to think about such things, but this particular thought caught his attention and intrigued him. Why else would he seek to place such control over their capabilities? Rules? Bullshit. There was something more to this whole deal than met the eye, but Karmen had already decided on his plan of action. If Jacqueline acted up again, he'd let whatever tentacle fetish monster she created wreak havoc on the dorm. Maybe then the Headmaster would appreciate his prior interventions instead of punishing him for them. And boy was this some punishment.

by Zerifachias Wed Dec 26, 2012 8:47 pm

Angie grinned behind her as Karmen took his place, quickly changing to his White form. She knew what to expect. A serious magical buff that will make all of her attacks much more powerful. Angie couldn't ask for anything better. She knelt down on one knee and placed her hands on the ground, seeking the raw material that lay hidden beneath the surface of the earth which she touched. Slowly, she brought up her hands, compressing them together around the tendrils of dark matter. Much of the matter escaped, covering her in soot and ash, though she was careful not to let any of it get into her mouth or eyes.

Angie rolled forward, pointing her newly-made, makeshift rifle at the closest cluster of creeps. She pulled the trigger, and the thing let out a loud BANG! The bullet pierced through the first creature, then hit the next, leaving a hole in both.

Angie moves to G-6

Vanessa uses Paralysis Round on Bogscale Stalker (1). 11 Lightning INT Dmg. Chance of Paralysis
MP: 20/30

Vanessa grew more worried. She didn't say anything at all. Not even remarking on the fact that she had just yelled at her not too long ago and was now concerned for the girl. There was definitely something wrong with Sallete. However she managed to pull herself together before she continued asking her what was wrong and sounding like a overprotective mother to her child. She'd have to get Sallete checked out by the nurse later but for now the focus was on the hostile creatures before them.

She reached for ammunition for her cannon but paused for a moment as she grabbed one of the capsules, perhaps she could try a different approach than what she usually did. Again, she loaded her cannon, however this time the capsule had a bright blue tint to it. After taking aim Vanessa fired, the shot would have an unpleasant surprise for the creature she was aiming for, provided it was unlucky enough for its nerves to be affected.

Vanessa moves to cell F-9

Rothaire watches as her "allies" she would think them as buff up, and began to look threatening. She thought that the Bogscale things looked bigger, and angrier. And out of everything, the worst was that they could speak. It did not sound pretty, either. She readied for battle, and is now running in.

Rothaire moves to D-7.
