The very moment the whistling comes to a halt, all eight unusual figures burst into action!
First to move is ziizo, clad in a gimp suit, who tosses his disturbingly heavy book of German BDSM terms to a random person in the audience! As he follows up with a quick dash out of the building, his suit making uncomfortably loud squeaking noises the whole way, he hears gasps coming from the audience as the people around where the book landed realize just exactly what has landed before them! Once ziizo bursts out of the door, he grabs Yottawhat’s bicycle and begins cycling away!
Secheral, quickly noticing the wealth of crazy people with weapons around him, decides that having some sort of protection would be ideal. Jumping into the crowd, he grabs someone that looks particularly drunk [10 v 2], and quickly wrangles them into a chokehold and holding them out towards the other wiki-warriors.
Next Puppyguard, noting the obvious danger of a thermonuclear warhead, orders his mafioso to dispatch Yottawhat! [2 v 9] Unfortunately for him, the shot goes wide and instead smashes into the giant asteroid, sending shards of rock flying all over the place and significantly spooking the audience. Then, Puppyguard lights a Black Snake at Failbird, which fizzes slightly and starts to snake out into a black tube, as Black Snakes are wont to do.
NAV, also noticing the obvious danger of a nuclear bomb, uses his mystical powers to pour wet cement all over Yottawhat! [7 v 5] The viscous grey goo covers his body as NAV dashes out of the building right behind ziizo, and makes a beeline for Elliot Bay! [Running: 6] She makes it about a quarter of the way, due to some annoying traffic and the fact she is constantly being tripped up by a large gaggle of cats insistent on rubbing up against we her legs.
The trend of causing great bodily harm to Yottawhat continues with OceanSoul, who serves a tennis ball straight at his head while singing Ballroom Blitz! [4 v 7-2 (Cement)] [Singing: 9+2+2+1] Although his shot goes wide, OceanSoul’s singing is off the chart! The chart has burst into flames! The entire audience stands up and gives OceanSoul a standing ovation!
Yottawhat, being the victim of a series of brutal and quite frankly distressing attacks, makes a mad dash for the bomb! [Movement: 6-2 (Cement)] However, the weight of the Cement causes him to fall over onto the ground, as Ali watches in confusion.
Seeing that Yottawhat is now in a very compromising situation, King Zultan moves in to make the killing blow [2 v 9-2 (Cement)], but misses and instead blows more chunks out of OceanSoul’s asteroid. Chunks of asteroid fly into the audience, which elicits a great deal of screaming and blood spurting everywhere.
Finally, Failbird sees the utter chaos that has unfolded before her and decides an egress is the correct choice at this time. After trampling over Puppyguard’s still-growing Black Snake, she pushes her way out of the building and into the street.
[Audience Reaction: 8 - 2 (Dictionary) + 3 (Singing) - 2 (Bodily Harm)]
The audience seems to have accepted this new diversion, and most people lean back to watch the show unfold. The general consensus is that this some sort of weird modern art performance.
