ooc: When you say Ark started to lean on Krik, Ark, I don't know if you meant physically lean on him, or it in some... emotional way, or if it was a typo

I shall assume the former, but if I'm wrong, I'll edit it.

IC:
Krik closed is ears to the mudokons consideration of his explanation; he had little interest in its opinion (and when I say 'little' I mean none). He sharply brushed away the mudokon when it leant a little closer than it had any right to (he was still holding a rather ugly knife).
Then it told him where it expected Dionysia to be, gesturing towards the laboratory. Hmm, well he would have searched their himself before long, so the whole thing with the mud had been a waste of time.
"Alright, thank you for your help," He said disinterestedly. "You can get back to your post, now." And ignoring whatever the mudokon did next, he hurried around the corner.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"I'm not a mudokon," Dionysia called after the big-bro as it walked away, "I'm not the same as them. I'm me."
It walked away, leaving her alone in the lab. She sat on a table, staring angrily at a wall, the conversation leaving her feel sullen and, deep inside, a little bit confused. But she trusted Krik, and the others; who else could she trust?

"Dionysia?"
She looked up; a very familiar vykker was standing in the doorway and for one odd moment, she wondered if it was her imagination, but she brushed off that feeling and stood up, "Krik! I didn't know you'd be here today!"
"I wasn't going to be," He replied stiffly, "But one of the tests I performed last time came up with some very strange results which we need to verify."
Dionysia's heart sunk a little to know he was only here for tests which she would have to endure, but then she was glad he was here at all, and smirked slightly to think of that big bro. "There's that storeroom upstairs..."

"That'll do fine," Krik replied and Dionysia followed him out of the lab.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"Surely he would not have turned on the systems where the mudokons were working?" Emlech asked, mildly surprised. With a nod to the boss, he walked over to the door and opened it. To his surprise, he came face to face with a very advanced looking Snoozer which was filling up the corridor. He had been expecting a slig, and took a step back, but quickly regained his composure, "I'm looking for a female mudokon called Anni," He said, "Apparently you know where she is to be found."

He was really hoping this robot could talk, or else he was going to look like a complete twit.



ooc: Ark, if you want to follow Krik around the corner, there's your chance, but don't expect Dionysia to respond kindly to his 'protection'.
Also, Jimmy, you only have to tell Emlech (and #7) where to find her; I'm not expecting a guide or anything, now SU's finally got a chance to speak to Arnie

-----OOC-----

Well, I don't know...Maybe I can delay the interview a little more You can still deny my offer though

-----IC-----

As SU-01 was waiting outside Arnie's office, a Vikker came out of the room. He was stunned for a few seconds probably because of the imposing shape of the armored unit but after recovering his composure, he asked him where Anni was. Having noticed how hostile she was with Vikkers technology, he deduced she would be even less cooperative with Vikker in general.

"Good day mister. I am Security Unit 01 Autonomous Snoozer Prototype Robot. The Mudokon you have mentioned was last see near the railway crossing in the stockyards area. Just give me a few seconds so I can determine her current location."

After connecting to the stockyards security system, and especially the movement detector on the pillar near the garden, he had the confirmation the three Mudokons were still here.

"Apparently, she hasn't moved since the last time."

He displayed an holographic map of the factory with the garden area highlighted on it.

"I must also inform you that some of the security systems of the stockyards sector have been re-activated. Not much to worry about though. Nothing related to active defense like floating mines or any other harmful device. Furthermore, this place of the factory is relatively hard to reach as it is supposed to be isolated from almost every entrance to the upper levels of this building to avoid any dangerous animal intrusion. You may want to go to the Feeco station and use some maintenance lift to go to the ground level. I could also and I will be pleased to escort you there if I am given the order to. This would be the simplest, fastest and the safest way to catch up with her before she moves out of range of the few working detectors that cover the area."

-------Slen------

"Alright, Scrab legs, Water, Otto, got it" Slen said, nodding to himself. "I'll be back as soon as I can." He walked into the Lab, surprised to find that the room was empty "Huh, where'd everyone go? Oh no, what happened to Erp." Slen thought and wandered around the lab "Erp, you still here?" He called out

--------Flad------

Flad awoke from his nightmare the animal scheme still echoing in his head "Huh, where?" He then remembered where he was "Oh right, of course." He thought and got out of the bunk "come to think of it sleeping in a factory your not employed in might not be the best of ideas." He approached Borso's bunk "Hey Borso, we better get going and see the boss" he said prodding Borso drowsily.

ooc: I want to give Uros the chance to post once more before moving Dionysia and Krik; sorry, Ark (though timing was otherwise good ).

Crescent, no one's posts have affected you; Mindy, I think, is still in the station. She could possibly head to the boss's office and ask for a job (Arnie, the boss, is in his office with a vykker named Emlech, so she might have to wait outside for their meeting to finish, but SU, a big robot (kinda like a very advanced Snoozer, I believe), is outside and might make interesting conversation while you wait).

Gretin,


IC:
Jim looked up at Ralph, "It looks real," He muttered, then a couple of gunshots made him cower further.
A moment later, Anni stuck her head around the tree, "It's gone."
"Good," Jim muttered. "Look, Anni. I think we probably should get back to the factory anyway, once you're finished here."
She looked slightly sour but nodded, "I'm done, then. I finished just when you arrived, and," She looked sadly at the plants that SU had squashed, "There's not much I can do for that, I think."
"Right, let's get back, then."
Glad some sanity was returning to proceedings, Jim began leading the way back towards the factory.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Emlech smiled thinly, his only external reaction to his relief that Arnie was apparently unaware of his vykker's discoveries about Anni.
The garden thing was an interesting idea; maybe he should establish something similar at the lab, if it might keep her happier. "Well, I'm sorry she's been some trouble; I hope the other mudokons I provided you with at the time made up a little for that. She doesn't know I'm here or that I'll be taking her away; I thought it more proper to tell the boss before telling the slave, as it were. I don't mind going to find her myself, though if you could tell me where she might be, that would be a help. If I have any trouble persuading her to come with me, I might ask one of your sligs to give me a hand, if it's no trouble."


ooc: Ooh, another Snoozer video; I wonder if this is official?
Thanks Splat pardon my slowness life is currently very busy outside the web

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

A long sigh drifted as Mindy shrugged her shoulders,
deciding maybe its better to be getting lost in this place then been bored waiting for some one. Presently after wandering down a few tunnels she found a sign post that said boss office and an arrow pointing in one direction-
"Finally progress" *the sound of her gears echoed down the tunnel as she walked down the hall*

IC: Borso shrugged and said "Chains and they ain't the kind you can see" He shook himself and stood upwards. Wiping the dust from his eyes. He put on his mask and pants and did a silly little Sliggy dance. "The big boss huh?", Borso grunted in a low guttoral voice. He coughs and his voice turns back to normal.

he waited for a reply and left R+R his rusty pants' squeking echoed a small distance down the corridor once again. "I really need to see to these" he thought as he was walking

***OOC***

Sorry to everyone x3! A little note on why I havent been around and… why I probably wont be for a little more.

1º I FORGOT that I had exams both this and the next week after vacations (yes, am a nuthead… and am fu****) so I will be damn bussy T_T

2º My dad had an operation and is pretty weak so I have to take care of him with help of ma mom (He is fine by the way, only weak as hell).

I am a bit stressed so sorry if I don’t have the best quality for a while whenever I am around.

***IC (KK7, Dbreak probably the next time… HAHA! KIDDING! I need both :3)***

KK7 was toying with a special sphere, bigger than a bomb and a bit weirder in look (drills everywhere and a few other things hard to explain to the inexperienced eye… well, mostly it was eye candy), he simply didn’t hear the other two talk to him until he was touched.

“AH!” He almost threw the thing at the other Slig, only to relax a bit after he processed what had been told “Oh… oh yea! I have to speak with him” He left the sphere and scribbled a note while placing the map with it before taking both papers he needed to deliver to the boss “I… hope he is a nice guy” He said, again he begun to shiver a bit. It would take a long while to get used to be with someone else more than with his friend “And I am KK7… pleased to meet you” KK7 extended his hand, shaking a bit.

*** Dbreak ***

Suddenly he stopped, Dbreak did feel like a damn fool, he was sincerely feeling more than pathetic for the outburst and maybe even more for the simple fact that he was also feeling bad for doing what he did. WHY THE HELL HAD HE DONE THAT?! FOR WHAT REASON?! A few simple words? F*** IT!

He was pathetic indeed… he didn’t like to come here, he didn’t want to come here… but he wanted to fit in at last, fit with his people. Where they his people? Where the Sligs the ones he wanted to feel connected with? For now only KK7, that was it.

Grumbling, he turned and was about to come back and talk with the black Mudokon girl… a problem there was, however. Who was that guy? A Vykker, he saw the thing before running out and he didn’t got any good vives from him, as any other Vykker. He was talking with the black Mudokon girl. Why? They didn’t do that except… except for those times that it was needed for their ideals and any experiments.

Dbreak thought he was probably getting anxious and still feeling like he was stupid and paranoid, but he couldn’t let it slip, the feeling that it was best to not believe that the Vykkers were going to do anything good to anyone was there. Only in case, only in case… Dbreak was going to wait until the guy left the girl alone, however, if he didn’t… he would wait or fallow him.

KK7 always told him that the Vykkers weren’t people but creatures, more so than the Glukkons. He hopped that his friend was wrong and that the feeling towards this one was also. The Big Bro loaded his guns and watched from afar, his equipment had the plus of being sneaky for his hulking size, still he hopped they wouldn’t see him and that both his feeling and friend’s opinions were wrong, it would be really easy that it was simply because he was uneasy of being here and still angry, yet…

Yet none of the two had failed to be right, ever.

ooc: Hooray, glad you're back! This place has been dead recently.

Ark, I've seen you online a couple of times, but since you haven't posted here, I'm just gonna have them walk off; sorry if you were planning anything.

IC:
"That won't be necessary," Emlech replied to the snoozer a little testily; "This slig, who I'm led to believe ranks quite highly, has already been assigned to help me find the girl; I don't think I need a large security escort to track down a single mudokon. However, I'd appreciate if you could turn off the security systems around the area just during my visit; I don't want any unnecessary drama. I don't think it's likely for too much to happen in just an hour."

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"What's been happening since I last saw you?" Krik asked as he and Dionysia walked through the corridors towards the stairs that would take them to the top floor.
"Not much," Dionysia replied, "Just one big-bro... He worked out there was something unusual about me, but don't worry; he's clueless as to what."
Krik didn't doubt this, since 'clueless' was a good word to describe any big-bro ever, but he was glad the risks of more people learning Dionysia's secret would soon be over forever. "I hope you didn't stir up any trouble."
"Nothing more than usual," She replied as they began climbing the stairs. A few moments later, she asked, "What's this test about?"
"There is no way you'll understand, so I don't know why you bother asking," Krik snapped. Feeling put down, Dionysia fell silent. A few moments later, they reached the store room and Dionysia held the door open for Krik; he walked inside.
She was about to follow when she thought she saw something out of the corner of her eye. She looked down the corridor but saw no one there. Had someone followed them up here? She rolled her eyes - now she was acting crazy. She followed Krik into the sizeable storeroom.


ooc:
"I don't think it's likely for too much to happen in just an hour."
Eheh...

"That won't be necessary either" SU-01 replied to the Vykker about de-activating the security systems. "There is only some lights and detectors on right now. The first ones will help you locate her more easily and I will make sure the second ones don't set on the alarm unnecessarily, although I highly doubt that as they can tell the difference between a Slig, a Vykker an employee and an intruder. Don't worry, nothing dramatic will happen. Good luck finding her, Sir."

Jim: "It looks real"

"Yeah," Ralph replied to the cowering mudokon, then quietly muttered, "so do I."
He looked surprised as the holographic slig fired fake shots - there was definately something odd about this machine. But then the hologram disappeared and the robot (SU-01) hovered it's way out of there.

He listened to the exchange between Jim and Anni, and agreed, "Yeah, we better get back to our posts."

<●-●-●-●-●>

Meanwhile everyone's favourite female native mudokon (or the only female native mudokon in the factory ) was passed out on the floor in the basement of the factory, chasing stars in her head.

Everything had gone black for a while, but then she started seeing flashes of, well, she wasn't quite sure, they were all too fast. She could make out various familiar faces amongst it all, but none of it seemed to make any sense. Then her mind made her travel back through her memory...

The group of mudokons were returning from an unsuccessful expedition. Probably weren't paying attention as much as they should have, so they were taken by surprise when a fully armoured big bro slig stepped out from behind a bush aiming a strange looking weapon at them. But then again, his armour seemed to have an unusual blue shine to it - perhaps it was shielded from their powers so they couldn't have detected it anyway.

Nonetheless, the five mudokons reacted quickly, leaping out of the way of a barrage of needle-like projectiles unleashed by the slig. Taking cover behind a tree along with one of the others, Hembar waited for the slig to stop firing. Luckily he had the typical big bro intelligence and didn't think to actually come at them, instead just holding the trigger down until he'd used up the ammunition. Taking the opportunity, she yelled out "Get him!" and ran out, brandishing a vicious looking blade.

Charging towards the slig and flanked by her companions, she hesitated as the slig aimed the barrel of his weapon directly at her chest. He pulled the trigger, and a needle shot out, scoring a direct hit. She staggered slightly, but for some reason it didn't seem to hurt much. Continuing the charge, they stopped that slig from firing another shot.


An unfamiliar shriek brought the mudokon back to her senses. Lifting herself up groggily, she made out the shape of the meech nearby. She leaned against the wall for a few moments until her head stopped spinning, but she noticed that her vision had returned to normal - for now at least. And she thought she knew what was causing her problems now.

For now, though, she had to get to somewhere safer. It was lucky that meech had woken her, the paramites probably wouldn't have wasted any time getting some easy food!

"Come on little buddy," she said to the creature, "looks like you saved my life, but we better get out of here."

She started heading up towards the safer part of the factory, although whether it was safer for the unlikely due was debatable.

ooc: Interesting...
Anyway, it's time to get this show on the road...

Dripik, I hope you don't mind me moving #7 out of the office or anything.
Also, Gretin, I PMed this to you, but if you want Ralph to leave Anni and Jim partway through this post, then that's fine; it's up to you.

IC:
"Thank you," Emlech replied to the robot, mildly impressed by the clearly very advanced AI in the robot; he would have to look into it when he got back to his lab. If someone was able to make robots clever enough to work as unattended security, he would have to keep an eye on the situation.
"Alright then," He said, turning to #7, "Let's go." He led the way out of the office and towards the main lifts, which he had seen on his way to the office a short while ago.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Jim gently urged them towards the factory before anything else could go wrong.
"Right," Jim said as they walked into the entrance to the factory. "We were told to look after the production lines this morning weren't we, but so far we've only stayed on the ground floor, so maybe we should check over the middle floor, too?" He said this with the voice of the person who knows he's been assigned a very important task, but has no idea what that task may be.

Anni, distracted by thoughts of SU, shrugged but followed him. The pair (and possibly Ralph) headed towards the main lifts outside the production lines. A lift was just coming down as they approached and Anni stopped, curious. Jim, nervous of who may have been inside, tried to urge her on, but she paused a moment longer to see who was coming down.

To Jim's horror, it was a slig.
To Anni's horror, it was a slig accompanied by a vykker.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

"Ugh," Krik said distastefully as Dionysia led him into the storeroom, "Was it this messy last time I was here?"
Still feeling slightly put down by his insult earlier, Dionysia just shrugged.
"Move some of those things, will you? Clear some floorspace."
Suppressing a bitter retort, Dionysia pushed some cleaning equipment into a corner and piled a few boxes of supplies together to make some more room. She straightened up, with her back to him, and asked, "How's that?"
"Perfect," He replied and fired the snuzi he'd just pulled out of his bag. An arc of blue electricity flew through the air and struck her back; she screamed and crumpled to the floor like a falling building.


ooc:
Slig accompanied by vykker was #7 and Emlech, just so we're clear.

***OOC***

Relax :3 Still many things can happen, Dbreak is simply going to stick the nose a bit and make sure to keep more than an eye on the thing (Is good to not have a visor in this situation I supose).

***IC (Dbreak)***

Dbreak huffed and puffed silently against the door where the black Mudokon girl and the Vykker had gone. He was a bit out of breath because moving silently is hard when you have to run every now and then to keep away from sight, and doing so with extra presure on the muscles to ensure that the mechanical parts didn't force themselves and give him up (In truth, he felt lucky).

He grunted as he took air while he heard a few words from the room; they seemed to talk, at least a bit… The girl had been more than harsh to him, but she was nice towards the Vykker! It struck him as odd, maybe if he still had…

AHA!

The old recorder he used to ensure bounties even when he and KK7 couldn’t drag the guy… or its remains… away with them. He hoped it was in better shape than most his belongings so when some sounds of stuff moving took place he used the moment to open the door just enough to have a peek and record anything he saw.

*Smile for the camera* He thought, grinning as, if anything, he could give his ‘special friends’ a target to go after if he didn’t like what the Vykker was going to do to the Mudokon girl.

When he saw that he had her out Dbreak had to suppress the need of breaking the door apart and rush in. As far as he k new this could be pretty much normal line of dutty for them. He wanted to see what the purpose of that action was and… he wanted to confirm if his bad feeling was right or not or if he was simply in for a show of horrors with one of their ‘normal’ experiments.

OOC: No problem Splat, I didn't really have any idea of what Ark could do, other than to possibly "start to follow them". Again, if you want me to back off, just say so.

IC: Dionysia scared Ark. Yet she was also an employee, or at least Ark was pretty sure she was. When she just walked past him and started walking away with the Vykker, Ark felt more relieved than he had ever felt since leaving the tribe, and it was after they had turned the corner that Ark realized that he had just let the Vykker leave without him. And this is were the problem arose, Ark didn't necessarily want to help her, yet he also didn't want an employee to get hurt for no reason.

Cursing his hero complex Ark decided to go after the Mudokon. With a new sense of urgency, Ark pursued the path that he thought they took, following only the echoing noises he heard in front of him.

Turning another corridor, it dawned on Ark that after seeing the same figure dart behind the corner in front of him, and that he was most likely following someone else. He was just thinking of giving up, and going back to get his gun, when he saw the figure standing out side a door.

The figure was clearly a big bro slig (Dbreak). Normally Ark would of figured he was guarding the room, but guards look away from the room to see potential threats, individuals that are expecting something dangerous or trying to surprise someone or something hang outside a room facing it.

'Curse this death wish I seem to have developed,' Ark thought as he cautiously walked up beside the BB Slig and quietly asked, "What's going on here?" his curiosity getting the better of him.

Crunchy cocked his head to one side. Whatever had been there before, it was gone now. For what seemed like the hundredth time, he slowly wobbled to his feet and turned around to find his Mudokon companion (Hembar) concious and beckoning. Crunchy trotted towards her. He was glad to have company.

OK, time to move on.

-----IC-----

With the Vikker and his escort gone, nothing more was standing between him and his long awaited interview with the boss. He went to the door, completely obstructing it with his massive body. He lowered his body a little so he could see a bit better inside the room.

"Sir ?" he asked "unless you have any other task for me to accomplish and with your permission, I would like to talk to you about a rather important subject...in private."

OOC: There's not much I can do with Ralph at the moment, as he's pretty much just following behind Anni and Jim (as I said in reply to your PM Splat), so this'll just be a Hembar post.

IC:

Good, it looked like the meech (Crunchy) was still alright, at least, no worse than it was when she first encountered it. She remembered that she was trying to find somewhere she could get food for it before they got distracted before, so even though she had her own problems to worry about, she figured that would be the best thing to do next.

The same blue glow that had surrounded her earlier now appeared again, but this time it spread to the meech, vanishing to make both of them appear a lot darker.

(For any Doctor Who nerds, you could say what she's doing is similar to the whole perception filter thing - they're not invisible, just very hard to notice)

She made her way cautiously through to the more inhabited part of the factory until the unusual pair reached the main lifts.

"Looks like we'll have to wait a little," she thought aloud, "someone's using this elevator right now."

ooc: I always thought there was more than one lift in the main shaft, but never mind I guess I could be wrong; I have no idea where I got the idea from (like I have no idea why I thought the lab was on the middle floor while everyone else thought it was on the ground floor. But I made the map so I got to decide! Hah!)


IC:
Anni was not the kind to run from her fears, but she was happy to walk right past them. Discreetly grabbing Jim, who was beginning to tense up, by the arm, she started walking towards the door of the production lines, when the vykker spoke, "Ah, Anni. I'm glad I found you so quickly."
She had her back to him; now it was her time to go tense. Whenever a vykker said something like that, it could only mean something bad was close to occurring.

"Turn around. Do you recognise me?"
She looked over her shoulder and glared at him. He looked slightly annoyed by this, though not necessarily at her.
"It's Dr Emlech," he provided. "The vykker in charge of the lab where you hatched, remember?"
All too clearly. She swallowed a lump in her throat and asked, "What do you want?"
He smiled that evil smile of all vykkers when they were trying to be friendly, "I've come to take you back there."

She wished, right then, that #7 wasn't there; it would be so easy to run, but she couldn't leave Jim with this psycho.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Dionysia woke to pain flourishing along her spine; she was lying on her front, her face on its side against the ground. She tried to turn over but for some reason her body barely responded. She stirred feebly.
Krik scuttled into her field of vision, "Good morning, Starshine," He sang, grinning like Christmas come early.
Dionysia was having enough trouble breathing and didn't respond. She stared at him, wondering what the Hell was going on.
Krik pulled a syringe out of his bag, still almost bouncing with happiness, "A direct hit to your spinal column; I couldn't've planned it better!"
Dionysia dredged up the information from the back of her head; a shot from a snuzi (he'd shot her!?), direct to the spinal column... Could leave her paralysed for a few minutes. But at least she knew she couldn't have been unconscious for too long.
"...Why?" She managed to heave; her chest felt like it was wrapped in steel bands; that would fade when her body woke up.
He grinned malignantly, and for the first time she felt a chill of fear run through her. "I'm glad you asked, you know. Let's have a look, shall we? One; the Cartel is holding an axe over our heads about my using Skillya's DNA, but the only evidence they have for that is you."
"...Huh?"
"Two; We don't need you any more; the next prototype we made based on what we found out from you has already been examined and the stage even after him is being constructed as we speak. The only reason you're alive today is, as I said, because the Cartel need you as evidence against us."
Her eyes grew wide; her pulse quickened. This couldn't be happening!
"Three; since you told that spy all our secrets, I've had to put up with being dragged backwards and forwards across this stupid continent, to silly places like this in the arse-end of nowhere; I've spent far too long on disgusting trains, being told what to do by brainless glukkons, and waiting hand and foot on a stupid, immature, frankly idiotic black-skinned slog-bitch of a mud. And four; no one in any way connected with the Magog Cartel knows that I'm here today, so as far as I'm concerned, I can get away with anything I wish to do to you. I only wish I had more time to make this last, but never mind; I'll make it as painful as I possibly can."

He raised his syringe and moved towards her; she tried to cry out, to beg, to scream, but all she managed was a quiet, keening whimper, and Krik chuckled as he pressed the needle against the skin of her neck.


ooc:
Dionysia could sure use some rescuing about now!

***OOC***

Damn he is a complete bastard x3! Let’s be helping x3! (And Splat, you are a mod >:3! Stop changing reality with the map XD!)

***IC (Dbreak)***

He was a bit startled when the voice of a Mudokon (It is easy to know what species the voice are coming from, really) came from his back. Dbreak simply raised a hand and pointed at the small opening in hopes he could see without any need of further risk being discovered.

Of course all wishes and desires of not being discovered and this being something that didn’t need an intervention went to hell as he heard what was said in the room.

He felt like shit for being angry before and even worse when it seemed that the few words that he had said to her could be the last because he hated to be like that… and was not going to let them be the last words he had spoke to her.

Suddenly he took the recorder inside its rightful place and literally TORE away the door in a state of frenzy as he entered the room.

“Fourth reason”

Dbreak grumbled as he threw the door slightly over both figures, missing in purpose (Though is hard to say as being angry his strength was at random) as he approached the ‘good Vykker’ at full speed to, finally, grab him by the neck as fast as he could without giving much of an opportunity if he was able to do so. The end of that was when he simply threw the bastard against one of the walls, hoping to kill him to say the truth, but probably shaking too much to do more than knock him out for a very long while.

“You have a head big enough to do target practice on it. Is obvious you need to vent your anger in something” He growled “Bastard…”

After a few seconds of looking towards where the Vykker had landed (to call it something…) he looked finally at the black Mudokon girl to kneel in front of her and offer a hand gently. That she took it or not he didn’t care, if she was unable to move or didn’t want to he would take her away, but first he needed to know how she was.

“How are you feeling?” He asked plain and simple “Can you move?”

***OOC***

And now to catch the bus before going to school ^^.

IC: Borso stopped in his tracks as he noticed a discarded piece of metal on the floor. He picked it up and looked at it. "Hey guys, what do you think this is?" Borso held up the piece of metal for the other Sligs to see. "More importantly, why is it lying in the middle of the corridor?"

I don't know if Uros asked splat if he could do this, I don't know if he is god-modding or not in this case. I'm going to post as if this happened though, and hopefully I can get some answers or (if there even is an issue) we can sort this out later.

IC:

Ark leaned in closer to the door. He was unable to get close enough to see into the room, the Slig blocking his vision, but he was able to hear just fine, and he didn't like what he heard.

By the time the Vykker started to say "and four", Ark got up, fully intending to charge in there, though his new big friend beat him to it.

As Ark saw the Big Bro throttle the Vykker and throw it to the floor, he entered the room himself. Seeing that the Slig was tending to the Mudokon he stood guard over the Vykker, his tattoos ablaze.

***OOC Mini info!***

Nope, I didn’t ask… I woke up today and while giving a quick glance with only half an hour of time I thought “Damn, I want to do something!” Though I hope I didn’t powerplay much…

Of course the idea was for a frigging Big Bro to take the Vykker’s attention, tear apart a door, throw it over both Dionysia and Krik’s heads (Barely missing as when angry he has even more of a problem controlling his strength, that must be said) and making sure Krik was, hopefully, knocked out for a while acting as fast as posible (Since I doubt he would have waited to hear Dionysia scream and probably would've gone for a straight on kill if he was discovered... I think).

Also: Fourth Reason was said by Dbreak a little after the door came one nice improvised weapon that was going to fly a second after those words :3.

Be careful Uros, I've had some God-play issues like this before. I think it's OK to grab someone's character, even fight with him but it's still to the owner to decide if their character is out of combat or not. If I were you, I would rather edit my post and stop maybe at the point where you grab the Vikker's neck, right before throwing it. And then wait for Splat's reply.

ooc: Normally that would be a good idea, but on this occasion I have no problem with Krik being knocked unconscious. My only real complaint would be the tearing off of the door, as structural damage is generally considered a little OTT in W@RF, but never mind. I'm sure someone will get around to fixing it...


...Eventually...


I shall IC soon.

Flad approached Borso to take a look at the piece of metal he was holding "Hmm...it might have just broken off the R+R sign after that blue guy shot it down." he guessed and looked at KK7 "what do you think? You seem to know a few things about metallic objects, given that thing you where working on back there"

---------Slen--------
"Hey Erp" Slen called still wandering the lab. "He must have gone somewhere else" he thought to himself and left the lab "now where could the cafeteria be?" he began to wander the corridor towards the stairs he fell down earlier when a Slig (Mindy) walked around the corner just in front of him. Slen gave out a yell and fell backwards.

ooc: Soonish.


IC:
Dionysia was beginning to tremble all over - at least the paralysis was beginning to wear off, she noted analytically. She felt numb, her mind refusing to take in what had just happened, and what had nearly happened. "I..." She forced out, "Another minute..."
She couldn't bear to look up into the big-bro's eyes, their recent... discussion still fresh in her mind. But even now she couldn't accept what he'd said. Her brain was frantically denying everything that had occurred since she'd walked into this store room. It couldn't have happened.
"Krik... Is he alive?"

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

When Anni failed to give any sort of reply, Emlech went on, "It's time for you to come back with me."
"I'm not going back," Anni said defiantly.

Jim, cowering half behind her, was watching this with a rising feeling of panic deep inside his gut.
Emlech looked angry, "You're coming with me, Anni."
"I'm not," She said angrily, and Jim suddenly found the whole thing totally ridiculous! This whole are/aren't/are/aren't children's argument between a vykker and a mudokon; he had the same feeling he'd had the morning Anni had been shot. He felt the familiar panic, especially with the slig so close, but it was like it was boxed tightly inside of him; he had to be the one to act and there wasn't time for panic.
"I'm not here to play games," Emlech growled, "You are my property Anni, and you will do as I tell you or I will have to force you!"
"What are you going to do to me?" Anni asked defiantly. "Arnie won't let you hurt me!"
"I can do what I like; I created you!"

Jim, half a second from grabbing Anni by the wrist and legging it down the corridor, froze. He could see the same expression on Anni's face as he could feel on his own. Anni was created by vykkers?!
She was shaking her head slowly; the vykker was looking smug. Jim snapped out of his shock and leant towards Anni, caught her wrist in his hands and whispered in her ear, "Let's get out of here."

He yanked hard on her wrist to get her going and started running; she was instantly running beside him, "Don't trust him!" Jim shouted at her. She couldn't have been made, whatever the vykker said.

Down the corridor he could hear the vykker yelling at #7 Slig, "Don't just stand there! Stop them!"

IC:
Ark was only vaguely aware of how bright his tattoos were glowing, his attention focused solely on the condition of the other mudokon and the Vykker present in the room. Though, upon hearing the mudokon's words a great sense of relief overcame him, 'She not dead, thank Odd.'

Not taking his eyes off the unconscious figure Ark replied, "I don't know who Krik is, if he's a friend we can look for him later. This guy seems to be breathing though, if just barely," Ark grimaced at his words, 'Gein-narrc'.

Turning to face the her, Ark continued to speak more directly the mudokon, while keeping a watch on the Vykker out of the corner of his eye, "Right now, I'm a little more concerned about you; how are you feeling?"

OOC: Ark knows Krik as Dr. Stone, so he wouldn't know who Dionysia is talking about. Also, I don't think I need to translate "Gein-narrc", just know that it is an insult directed at Krik.
