Fitting music...
And thus, in the time of need, or rather in the time when nobody needed him and nobody even remembered him, he came forth to serve those who needed serving.
And no, that's no a quote from the bible, I'm just trying to sound pretentious to make up for this year of twattery between an update.
Let's just hope it works.
*AHEM*
Additionally, as he came forth, he came forth, he brought with him bounteous troves of wealth, and with them he gave the people what they wanted for a full day. If one's request was far too grand, he would deliver thee a blow to the face. And it would be glorious.So, to recap, WOO UPDATE AFTER 252 OR SO DAYS. To make up for it, have Handel's 'Messiah', a Meet the Medic gif, and next turn, where all y'all get something special of your choice, whether it be a permanent mini power, such as levitating cats or musical instrument combustion, or an item, such as a bomb made of lava, or a really really REALLY big rock. For this turn, however, I'll be continuing as normal. Hope you guys have fun in what I'm gonna call 'Mall Fight: Part 2: Boogalic Electricity'
Go look for medical kits.
[2] Despite having been promoted from 'Innocent Bystander' to 'Loose Cannon Doc Who Don't Play By Da Rules' via your self-bandaging efforts in the field, you have not unlocked access to the Med Kit. Invest more skill points in the 'Leader' class to unlock use.
Alternatively: Your foot has miraculously not been infected after almost a year without treatment, but despite your searching for more effective medical help than a bandage around your shoe, First-Aid Kits seem to be strangely absent from the area.
"What are those... By the Three and the Many... What the...?"
PANIC!
[1] Despite the strange situation, you find yourself unable to panic. However, this does leave you standing in the middle of the road, getting increasingly soaked. It's rather uncomfortable, and kinda lonely. Not in the sense of 'Hey I'm alone this sucks' but more that the area's just...empty. Nobody in sight, the towering skyscrapers are void of light, and seem almost abandoned. The atmosphere is broken when a man calls out to you from a nearby building, holding open the door and yelling for you to come inside. Looking around, you also notice a rather large...train? And it's coming towards you!
Use Bonesaw, Knife, and Katana to cut a hole through the tables.
[4] It takes a few minutes, and you kinda bent up the saw in the process, but a neat hole is carved out of the table right above you. You climb out, ripping your shirt off the ice below you. It remains intact, but as you leap to the floor again, you salute your trusty bone saw...thing, and toss it back where you came from. It lived a good life, and it's finally time to bid it farewell. Now, mall, stuff, people, what to do?
"Awesome"
I wave at the lawyer man
[1] You're not really the waving type. Besides, he seems too busy burning in several different ways to wave at you.
You're more of a hug person, really. You dive down to the ground, proooobably breaking SOMETHING very important, (Probably your stirrup bone. Both of them.), and roll into the Lawyer Dude, quickly catching on fire yourself. It's a bit more than the warm feeling you usually get from hugs, to be honest.
When suddenly, it doesn't hurt any more. It's pretty cold, though,
Roll on the ground. A lot. While conjuring water. Preferably cold water.
[6] You feel someone else bump into as you fumble with your thoughts, gushing a torrent of cool water out of your hands, an extinguishing both of you. However, it appears that your abilities have been temporarily compromised, leaving you laying on the ground emitting gallons and gallons of water into the area. You can swim, right?
Head out in search of enemies.
[1] There is a incredibly deadly level on non-enemies lurking around. Seriously, you haven't really made too many dire enemies in your time in the mall, and it has always seemed just a bit...empty, besides all the other fighters and the other things they seem to flood into your vicinity every once and a while. You do, however, feel a bit paranoid, like something big is gonna happen soon. Like a fucking clown's gonna jump out of an air vent and beat you to death. It's unsettling.
Engage the scotch-drinker in MORTAL COMBAT!
cue theme song
[6 Vs. 4] Your theme song queued up and ready to go, you leap at the scotch drinker, tackling him off his chair and to the ground, where his drink shatters. Like, literally, the drink shatters. As the glass hits the ground, the 'Scotch' inside flies out and smashes, tinkling as individual pieces of brown glass hit and skid along the floor. Meanwhile, the glass itself begins slowly melting, like cheap plastic in the sun. When you look over at the guy you tackled, you notice that's he's smiling. And missing a chunk of his head. Impact with the ground must have caved it in, seeing that he's obviously made of...porcelain? That's what is looks like at least. Weird...Looking around, everyone else in the lobby of the building is looking at you. No,
staring at you. Something tells you that doing what you just did wasn't a good idea.
Hotwire the vehicle with your mechincal arm
I mean, all this technology has to be good for something, right?
[5+1-1] Well, it's definitely good for that. It takes a bit of careful work, but you do manage to connect your hand to the vehicle wirelessly, meaning you'll be able to control it remotely. Probably best to keep an eye on it when you're doing so, though. No need to destroy valuable stuff here.
Continue being happy and swearing undying love and loyalty to Tara
and then...
"Hi, I'm May! Er...am I interrupting something?"
"Eh?"
Wasn't that girl attempting to slay me earlier with monsters she threw out of her pocket? Eh, whatever.
"Hello May, I am FERNANDO "NACHO" TREJO (cue guitar string), and this beautiful senorita is Tara McScara"
Introduce self to May, continue being on guard for an attack from anyone with a priority on protecting my gal
Tara smiled warmly and gave a dainty wave of greeting as Nacho introduced them to this 'May' person, but of course, even as she said a sweet little "Hi!" she was already eyeing off this newcomer, inspecting her fashion-sense and the quality of her tan.
>Greet May, then use my bitchy intuition to thoroughly assess this newcomer. What is she wearing? Is she good-looking? Good-looking enough to threaten my own beauty?! Make sure this skank ain't eyeing off my man. ...All whilst appearing sweet and friendly, of course.
[3, 6]
"HOLA SEŃORITA. I AM FERNANDO TREJO AND THIS...IS THE BEAUTIFUL SEŃORITA, TARA."Jeez, that couldn't be louder, could it? Your ominous guitar strum doesn't seem to chime in either. The band must be on break.
Meanwhile, Tara decides to eye up the competition here. Seems harmless enough. May was wearing a garish green/orange/black colour scheme, probably a better fit...well, anywhere other than the mall, and was definitely pretty, but definitely not enough to make her worry about her place in the scheme of things. Sass won't be necessary here, just a simple greeting works right well. May seems to respond well enough, not really wanting in on a slice of beefcake.
RaN: Keep doing what you are doing.
May: Keep doing what you are doing, but Sweet Little Miss Scary looks ready to give you some sass. Should sass be conveyed, become the Master of Sass.
[6] Portals really aren't THAT complicated, are they? You manage to poke your head out the doorway and shoot a portal on the floor below. Eager to get out of this same-old same-old setting, you leap through the closer portal, before flying up into the air a bit and falling back through, shooting yourself back into the store and into the wall across from your first portal. Well, at least you have a quick way down now. Just have to work on your air-manoeuvring skills a bit more.
Start ripping out the walls for any cables or structural members to build a bridge/ladder/rope ladder bridge to get out of this place.
[1] You punch the wall full-force, shattering the drywall, as well as your fist on a rather solid wooden stud. It's pretty damn painful even after all you've gone through already, but you're pretty sure you HAVE found something in there that might be useful as some kind of rope ladder. Eventually.
MEANWHILE...
The mad doctor, Harold Dragovich, having found a patient, begins dragging the poor guy away to a corner of the store...before being dropped through a convenient hole in the floor, and into a tube popping out of the ground below the store. After a few moments of nobody really paying attention, more pipes emerge from the ceiling, dropping random items to the various fighters.
While his original gear is nowhere to be found, everything else he picked up drops on people's heads one by one.
His
Ultra Ball drops down onto his former patient, Coel Mab Urien.
The
Stick he found drops on Tara, nearly getting caught in her 'Sweet 'Do'.
The
Green Book falls into the passenger seat of the Rolo Royce occupied by Waffles N. Bacon.
His
Gold Knuckledusters clang down in front of Charles Westly.
His
Plate Package and a strange Pokeball fall down to FERNANDO, who seems too busy flexing to notice.
And lastly, a weird note falls down to Karkat. Upon reading it, he frowns, walks out to the balcony and jumps down into the water created by Edgeworth. He swims over to him and...uh...well, kinda just treads water there, muttering something about 'the fucking guys up there' and 'Goddamn shitstain just disappears'.
A strange heat flows through the food court, followed by a slight chill and a strange smell. It's...ominous.
