(Continuing from part 1 with Turtle, Hammer, Worm, and Davy.) --------------------------------------------------------- (As Hammer and Turtle are discussing a certain strange issue, Worm and Davy have gone to the upstairs of the old broken down bar to search the area.) Worm: *holds his shirt over his nose and mouth to not breath in all the dust*. "No windows, no front door, where the hell are we?" (Davy places his right hand on the hilt of one of his swords on his back, ready to draw it.) Davy: *sniffing the air*. "Hm.." Worm: *turns around and faces Davy*. "What is it Davy?" Davy: *delayed response*. "Something just feels off up here." Worm: "dude, no shit." (Davy quickly draws his sword and slices the ground, killing a black eel.) Davy: *carefully picks up the eel*. "Where did this come from?" (The eel explodes in a green acid and hits Davy in the side of his face, burning him) Davy: *falls back in a panic and holds his face*. "Damnit! That burns!" Worm: *quickly checks to see if Davy is alright*. "Don't worry, you'll be fine." (Davy sheathes his sword and stands to his feet, breathing a sigh of relief.) Davy: "that was weird." (Worm and Davy go back downstairs to meet up with Hammer and Turtle.) HammerFist: *gets up from the table*. "You good Davy?" Davy: "yeah, just some weird bug got me." Darth Turtle: *sitting in silence*. "...." HammerFist: *claps his hands together*. "So, did you two find a way forward?" Worm: "nah, nothing unfortunately." (Turtle stands up and walks over to one of the bar walls, pressing his hand against it.) Darth Turtle: "hmm. Why don't we just blow a hole through this wall now? We should be far enough away from the others." HammerFist: "have at it Turtle, maybe there's no real exit for a reason." (Turtle creates a large fist from the red aura of his ancient armor and smashes a hole through the wall, revealing a cloudy night sky from the outside.) Worm: "guess we found the exit." (Turtle walks outside to find an abandoned village around the bar's location.) HammerFist: *follows Turtle outside*. "A village? In the middle of nowhere?" Darth Turtle: "we're not in the middle of nowhere, there's always more to this shit hole." HammerFist: "uh, okay then." (The 4 players exit out of the bar.) Davy: *draws one of his swords again*. "..." Worm: "Davy! Stop doing that, you're making me nervous!" (Davy points forward to a mysterious looking figure dressed in a black cloak, long tentacles for a face and glowing red eyes.) HammerFist: *rubs his eyes to focus better*. "What's that?" ???: *monstrous voice*. "You encounter the spawn of Elik....." Darth Turtle: "uh, who?" (Slime drips from the creatures face as its red eyes stare at Turtle.) ???: "the divines aren't happy, our presence will slowly close in on this planet's surface, eventually, chaos.." Worm: *shakes his head*. "Not while I'm still breathing!" (Worm shoots out a beam of red lightning from his hand and liquifies the creature into green goo.) HammerFist: *turns to Worm*. "We could have asked a couple more things..." Worm: "we don't have time for that Hammer, that things nonsense is nothing to me." HammerFist: *rolls his eyes*. "If you say so." (The group decides to search the village still looking for Loot.) ---------------------------------------------------------- Saitonia: *falls face first into a dirt ground*. "Ugh! Am I back??" (BatPug grabs Saitonia by his throat and holds him above the ground) Saitonia: *struggling*. "I thought we weren't going to kill each other?!" BatPug74: *tosses Sai back to the ground*. "Just letting you know that if you try anything on me, I'll crush you with ease." Saitonia: *holding his neck*. "My sword is gone, I've lost majority of my strength..." BatPug74: "is that so? Well that's good to know, means I have no competition." Saitonia: "you're forgetting about Xenon if he even is still alive." BatPug74: *system error*. "Oh......you're right." (Saitonia chuckles and brushes the dirt off his clothes, standing up.) Saitonia: "so we ended up in a dirt field. I need to regroup with my team." (BatPug74 extends his sight capabilities with his robot vison and spots a location far in the distance.) BatPug74: "I see buildings about 3 miles from our current location, big buildings. We can head there." Saitonia: "works for me. But tell me, what are you getting out of this? You can't just be helping me out of kindness." BatPug74: "sigh, to be honest with you, I'm just looking for a different outcome." Saitonia: "like, with you dying?" (BatPug stands in silence for a couple seconds after Saitonia's question and then starts walking towards the buildings in the distance.) BatPug: "we should go..." Saitonia: "...." --------------------------------------------------------- (Above the clouds, a dark storm stirs closer. End of Part 2.)
