Chapter IV: HerzogEliminationPart XIII: Objective MotivationHerzog's Manor/Hideout, Close to the Abisko Research Station, SwedenEarly Evening, Fully Cloudy, 7/23/2016 After retrieving the Chaos Emeralds from the attic, NRDL turns around with an odd heat licking at the soles of his shoes, and asks "
Herzog, if you're listening to me, what the hell are we meant to do? We kill you, we play into someone else's hands. What is your plan here?", before continuing the search for more Chaos Emeralds. [8-2 (Rarity [Only Two Left])] He feels Chaos energy emanating from somewhere else in the attic, and so goes over to the most likely place it can be. Boxes upon boxes are stacked up in the corner, and the Chaos energy is emanating from there. Before he can grab it, Herzog replies. "
I aim to survive. There is someone in another timeline who wants this book. I aim to learn how to open a Rift with this, and give it to them for safe-keeping. I need time to find out how to do it."
PirateJoe, peering down at the determined Hawk, simply sighs before trying to stab Hawk with StormFlower's pistol blades. [8 v 10-3] StormFlower stabs into Hawk's cheeks from a misplaced blow, which may be because she moved her head as this heat burned at her back. Joe can feel it too, heat burning at the soles of her feet.
Standing up from the grassy ground, dirt sticking to his sleeves, Fallacy of Urist dusts himself off and looks at the house. The first and second floor are basically engulfed in flame, the third one isn't too far and [Flame Damage: 3] while the house is actually holding itself together well, it can't possibly take much more. Sighing, Fallacy says "
Well, best get to work. " and looks around for him. [9] Without much question, Fallacy knows exactly where he is: the third floor. And luckily for him, there's a plane close by.
As the flames continue to torch the wood of the mansion, Dolosus Doleus simply continues watching with a "
Hmmph.Not content to just watch the manor burn, Lord Lemonpie scoffs and dashes towards his bomber, basically flying in from his speed as he activates it. [9+2 (Piloting Bonus)] The plane bursts to life, already releasing it's grip on the ground as it begins darting upward. While the plane flies, Lemonpie activates his vampiric speed and essentially glides with ease throughout the craft, checking the area for items of interest. [4+2 (Demolitions)] [6+2 (Piloting)] [9] First, the payload. Around six bombs await their fate of dropping on some
poor bastard, each one primed and ready to detonate. Six ready-to-use parachutes await each wall. What catches Lemonpie's eye, however, is a conspicuous mask lying on the ground. Turning it over, the two fangs and sunken eyes make him smile. The Stone Mask, created by the beings now known as the Pillar Men thousands of years ago. Affixing it to his face, he awaits his new power...and feels nothing. Removing it, he looks at it confused [Lore Check: 4+2], until he suddenly remembers the key ingredient to actually activating it: blood. You need blood to power the Stone Mask up. There was something else that needed to be added to the Mask to make it do something else, but that's unimportant right now.
As High Tyrol opens his eyes for the first time, he looks at the burning mansion with awe as he rises to his feet. Looking down, he wraps his hands around the handles of the particle cannon, feeling power course through it. Instantly activating his shield, he stomps his feet, beginning the process of summoning his Mexican warriors, before backing up and running towards the nearby research station.
With a robotic scoff, Person looks down at Hawk and raises it's swords to the air. [8 v 10-3, 7 v 6-3] The first blade once again grazes the skin, but that distracts as the second blade rakes across her skin, spreading more blood. [Medical Check: 10] And yet someone, she holds on, her breath actually quickening. [8 v 3-3] With a ridiculously quick slash, Hawk's head actually flies off in a bloody arc. Kneeling down, Person loots Hawk's poison blades, before a curious readout stops it. It says "
I'm detecting an usual increase in temperature. It may be wise to evacuate.", before suddenly feeling an odd sense: new powers.
Person killed a hostile PC! It gets:http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/Turismo: +Black Turismo
Or rather, a new car, as a shiny new Ferrari, or something similar, suddenly rolls up next to the manor. The keys suddenly appear in their hand.
Failbird realizes what he has to do, and thus does the only rational thing to do in a situation like this. He immediately runs over to a window to through himself through. [5 v 3] While running, he fires his three-round burst M-4 Shuriken into a Zombie, two shots connecting into it's chest, though it barely flinches. [Damage Check: 5] He throws himself through the glass. While neither the act nor the shrapnel affect him, landing heel-first on the ground does bruise him, though nothing major happens. "
NOT[I/] sticking around there!" he shouts, as his drone flies after him [5-1 v 1] while a volley from it's gun kills the Zombie that attacked it in retaliation.
(Idle) OceanSoul and BiggerFish both wait, trying to come up with a plan.
Suddenly, Hawk rises up, her flesh rapidly decaying. She has become Hallow, though she is still dead.
The Moonlit Shadow attempts to burst through the house [8] and slams through the door with ease. Now outside, he begins the process of skating around the manor, hoping to cast a Frost spell. [2] However, he finds one thing wrong with the plan almost immediately: his skates aren't Magic.
Well, they can do magic. Not what I mean. They can't skate on any surface. He can't skate on grass. There needs to be an alternative plan."
You raise an excellent point, H.I, so how about we do this: People who support me, help me out. Those who want to kill me for the rewards, give us a head-start. Sound good? Sounds good to me, ja." Herzog says, slightly decloaking as light shines around his translucent form.
BSN:
Kept you waiting, huh?
So, yeah, more time will be spent here. I might go on another break to write more, and I obviously can't spend as much time on Bay12 as I did when I started out. But I am not, nor will I ever go on an unannounced hiatus again.
So, sheet time? Sheet time.
