Immediately, Hotfire turns around and makes a beeline for the warm, insulated, and highly bullet-resistant safety of his tank. As the mighty war machine sputters to life, he directs it towards the station, eyes peeking out through a slot carved in the front in search for a crew worthy of operating it! (Search: 9) After a minute or so of moving about the facility, Hotfire already sees two individuals who might be able to operate the tank! The first is a warmly dressed woman, busy driving a snowmobile from one building to another. The other is a soldier, dressed in a camo-patterned parka and a gun slung across his back.
Angry Demon Noises suddenly begins laughing maniacally, before haphazardly flinging himself at Imic as the Italian-American warrior attempts to flee to their locomotive! (6 vs. 10+2) Instead of actually making physical contact however, the radioactive wiki-warrior quickly receives a swift kick to the goolies before falling to the ground, and can only hear Imic's footsteps gradually fade as he runs away.
Greatness too makes a mad dash for their vehicle, though with a more combat-oriented plan than Hotfire. Effortlessly, the he slides his shield onto a holster on his back as he hops on his custom motorcycle, before leveling his spear at King Zultan and revving the engine! (9 vs. 2) Before the Baltic wiki-warrior can react, he is skewered clean through the chest, body flopping against the ground and bits of flesh scraping off against the ground as the life departs from his body!
Greatness Skewered King Zultan!
+Article: Gray OozeMaking a note to her cameraman to film the sweet shit that's about to go down, TamerVirus grabs the Tolomeo desk lamp and starts running at breakneck speed towards the downed Angry Demon Noises! (9 vs. 8-1-1) Though the lamp is rather heavy, it perhaps doesn't make the best bludgeoning weapon, as even though TamerVirus is able to get in a solid swing, she fails to do any lasting damage besides leaving a nasty gash on Angry Demon Noises' head. Whatever, a few more solid swings should get the job done anyway.
Imic hops into his FUCKING STEAM TRAIN BITCHES after kicking Angry Demon Noises in the nutsack, and surveys the landscape for the closest enemy to SHOOT THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF. With a manic, bloodthirsty gleam in his eye, the criminal wiki-warrior grabs the mafioso's tommygun before unleashing a torrent of bullets upon TamerVirus, who is beating the shit out of Angry Demon Noises with a lamp, and Angry Demon Noises, who is looking significantly worse for wear at the moment! (5 vs. 6) (1 vs. 5) As he does so, however, the locomotive's lurch forward as it springs to life throws off his aim, and the bullets careen harmlessly into the snow.
Not even moving an inch, NRDL calmly lifts her WWI era rifle and fires it point-blank at The Two Eternities' head! (6 vs. 5) However, she just barely misses as The Two Eternities starts running for a nearby building, leaving only a slight graze on her shoulder!
Having just dodged a literal bullet, The Two Eternities runs as fast as he can towards the closest building, before slamming the door behind her and screaming for help! The only response, however, is a confused-looking elderly man, dressed in striped pajamas and a nightcap, who peeks his head out of a door to see what all the fuss is about.
In the distance, an armored figure trots into view, riding upon a chestnut-brown steed. He looks around, before resting his fingers upon his two weapons: a jousting lance, and a semiautomatic shotgun.
