ooc: Scraby, I'm gonna do the same as Nate and ask you to make all the effort you can in using correct spelling, grammar and punctuation in your posts.
Second, if you intend on joining, you need to post your character's profile in the W@RF Profile Thread.
And finally, there are no other characters outside of the boss's office, so there's no one for him to see there. There are no 'random characters' in the factory; the only people in Rupture Farms are those created, owned and used by the players (except for the animals in the stockyards).

I think you mean 'illuminate'. :p


IC:
Krik's anger was cut short by the magic words, 'Fine; you win'. "I always win," He muttered under his breath and hurried down the corridor after the mudokon, putting the syringe back in his bag.


Anni glared when the robot started stomping over her garden, "This is the garden Arnie, the boss, told me to plant so that Rupture Farms could grow it's own spices and save money! Being out here and looking after the garden is my job! The boss himself told me to do it! So you better not turn those things back on unless you want to be in a lot of trouble with Arnie."

Jim was mildly relieved that she had such a good comeback at the ready, and was slightly more confident that the robot wasn't going to shoot them all.



ooc: Flighty Roe, I am also done for the weekend; I won't be posting again until late on Sunday (or early on Monday). Which doesn't mean the rest of you can't. Though remember to be patient with the people who aren't here; you can wait a couple of days if need be. The internet'll still be here in two days' time.
Ark and Krik might be arriving just in time to stop things getting too messy :p

OOC: I have no idea what your talking about, Splat. It's always been illuminate... ignore the "Last edited by arkaznor :" part. It's irrelevant. :p

IC: Ark noted that the Vykker was following him, and had placed his syringe back into his bag.

"But not the blade, great. Well it was more than I was expecting," Ark muttered under his breath.

Ark keep a careful watch on him (Krik) out of the corner of his eye, as they walked down the hall. His tattoos finally begian to settle down, but Ark thought that anyone that wasn't blind (like this guy seemed to be) could still tell that they were glowing.

It than occurred to Ark that he probably wasn't going to get another chance to ask this Vykker his question, since he was calmer than ever (in Ark's memory), and after he did what he had to with the other Mudokon he would probably disappear again.

"If you don't mind, and if it's not sensitive information, may I ask about the Mudokon I'm taking you to? I mean, the only other female Mudokon I've seen before coming here was tall and lengthy, she towered over us workers; but this one looks much more like a worker? Is she just a lot younger than I think she is or is there a reason for it?"

Ark paused before adding (in an attempt to not set this guy off again), "If you can or wouldn't mind answering, of course... Er... Mr.-, Prof.-, Dr. -?"


OOC:
In case you can't tell, Ark is asking for Kriks' name in a round about way.

Also, while writing my last post, I left out the line "You win." for the longest time, due to Ark being someone who never wants to admit that he's wrong. And it was only as I reread it (apparently not carefully enough, though) that I added it since it seemed like it would be unlikely Kirk would actual follow, unless Ark said it. Seems like a good thing I did.

-----OOC-----

OK, last IC post until the VIPs are back :p

-----IC-----

"OK, typical hostile reaction..." he thoughts. "Time to give a try at my new holographic projector..."

A red orb on the top of his head started glowing and diffusing a light beam in front of him. A flickering silhouette appeared and then turned into an unmasked slig when the projector finished calibrating. The Vikkers engineers really had done a good work because the slig looked nothing like a regular hologram which you can see right through. In fact, it gave the perfect illusion that a slig was really standing here and now. The virtual Slig took a few steps towards Anni, passing through the plants of her garden, his wide brown eyes looking straight at her.

"You don't seems to understand..." he said calmly. "The security systems have already been re-activated...Just take a look around. Those projectors weren't here because the baby Scrabs were afraid of the dark, you know ? This has been authorized to avoid any other terrorist intrusion. If I hadn't canceled the alert protocol at the very last second, you would have something like 5 or 6 mines chasing you right now...In fact, I think we would already be missing 3 employees. So unless you really want to hug a highly explosive floating device in the upcoming few minutes, I suggest you get back into the factory until the whole thing is fully set up and proper exceptions are applied to the sensors and then you can get back here anytime you have the authorization to. Understand this is for your own security. I'm not allowed to use more persuasive methods at the moment, so I can only kindly ask you to follow me back inside...all of you."

***OOC***

Ok, short briefing everyone: My anckle is F!!!!ED up. I can bend and twist just enough to make people think I am breaking my bones, and I am a round person, if you know what I mean, so it indeed looks a bit abnormal. The problem is when I don’t want to twist anything but it DOES twist, like yesterday with my left foot getting to look upward… from the wrong side and with all my weight (and a friend’s) over it. It is not broken but it hurts like hell when I move, still I don’t want to leave the crazy girl waiting and even if I am in a foul mood this help me relax ^^.

Also, hope it is not too long.

***IC***

Dbreak couldn’t help it, he had been serious and angry at her, but her last remark made something snap. Problem is to know if it was good or not.

“HAHAHAHAHA!”

He couldn’t help it in any way as he tried to fight back the laughter, but it hit it so hard that he had to. The big bro simply laughed up at the ceiling while removing tears from his eyes as he did so.

“GOOD GRIEF!” He said with a chuckle “THAT! That was priceless” Dbreak tried not to laugh anymore, but it was hard “I am under someone? No, that, in my case, is true… I still don’t know if I have been accepted here, but even if so I can decide when I will end my contract if I don’t like it here” He sneered and looked at her with a cocky grin “But anyone could kill me at any second, I have many more enemies than friends and someday I will meet my end for sure… If we talk about chains we may as well say that you may be able to take one away from you, but you must take another”

He got finally serious again and took another look at the girl to see if she was going to do more than talk. It was getting a bit hard to overlook that it was a girl and it was a Mudokon when he faced her. Dbreak was simply wishing she was something else to justify that he mauled her.

“Look: I am here, trying to understand you and see why the f*** you are a damn b***” His patience was being prodded and, soon enough, it probably would give away “Yet you are having fun of this and making sure I feel bad by each second that I wish for your demise. But I will not do anything to you” The last part was in a more caring tone, one that in reality was of pity “I won’t because I don’t need to” He said frankly “You have showed me that it is IMPOSIBLE that anyone cares for you. You have showed me that from my side, one that tries to do good (Or I think so), is there an opposite even WORSE than Glukkons and Vykkers together, and is so because I knew if you had power you would easily destroy anything that bothered you, unlike those two species of idiots that only do it gradualy” He segued and looked at her, thinking if there was something good in here “Girl, be as you wish, I already don’t care what happens to you” Getting closer, he took her head and pulled her almost against him as he lowered his face to talk into her ear before getting away some steps.

What he said he meant, every word was spoken slow, loud and clear enough for her to notice that his tone was not of hatred and angry feelings anymore, but mostly one of pity. Why? Because he was sure of that what he had said would happen:

“But remember these words: Sooner or later; you always get what you deserve, in the worst way possible”

ooc: My sister insisted that I download a song from t'internet so said song would have a chance of being Number 1 for Easter. As a result, I am now online, so I might as well write a post!

Jimmy,
SU:" Luckily for you, I have canceled it just in time."
Anni: "You better not turn those things back on unless you want to be in a lot of trouble with Arnie."

Ark,
I know that one, too :p And it's 'Krik', to rhyme with 'Quick' (NOT 'Kirk' which rhymes with 'berk'). :fuzwink:
Also, you can probably have them arrive in the lab very soon, since the conversation is closing in on the point where a timely interruption would at the very least allow Dionysia to be arrogant some more.
Also, sorry I was kinda ignoring the tattoo thing, but Krik would probably stab him without hesitation if he suspected anything dodgy.

Uros,
If Dbreak grabbed her head she's either throw him off straight away or be struggling too hard for him to do any talking, so if it's alright, I'll just assume he leant close to her ear and whispered.
Also, Dbreak has gotten completely the wrong picture of the girl! :p (Though I suppose it's very much her own fault.)


IC:
Anni would at about this time have been going up to the factory anyway, but she didn't appreciate being threatened or bossed around, and was more than willing to rebel.
Also, while Jim might normally have provided the Boring Voice of Reason in these situations, his fear of sligs meant that the sudden materialisation of SU's hologram was akin to that bit in the dream where the monsters start climbing out of the fireplace. He stumbled back, gaping in shock, tripped over the roots from The Tree (The Tree being the feature that had made Anni choose this location for her garden, since it was probably the only tree within the factory grounds) and fell over, landing behind it, in a convenient location for some expert cowering.
Anni was less impressed by the hologram, guessing it was some sort of fake, if nothing else then because no slig would ever be seen without a mask. And things like that were only made by vykkers. She hated vykkers.
Ignoring the slig, she spoke directly to the robot, balling her fists in anger, "I don't think you understand! I am doing my job, the job that Arnie, the boss of Rupture Farms, ordered me to do! And I'm not going anywhere until I've finished it, because it is my job! I've got to finish watering the plants and now I've got to try and undo the damage you've done, crushing all the plants Arnie paid for! So unless you want to explain to Arnie why you've murdered three employees just doing their jobs, I suggest you go back to the factory and turn the stupid security systems off again!"

(ooc: Girl power!)

There was an odd light illuminating the corridors, but since he was walking behind the mudokon, Krik couldn't work out where it was coming from. And he was in a hurry and rather annoyed that this mudokon was delaying him so much when he was in such a hurry to get the job done and leave without being seen, that he didn't stop to worry about it. He was glad that the mudokon was finally showing some respect, however.
"It's Dr-" He snapped, then stopped himself. Stupid; even if it was only a mud, he couldn't give it his real name! "Dr Stone." Oh, very good. But it was the best he could come up with at short notice.
"And for your information," He said haughtily, happy to emphasise the mud's ignorance, "Queens look utterly different from worker mudokons, no matter how old they are." This was said in his best 'any-fool-knows-that' tone of voice. "However, some queen eggs don't develop properly into queens; these worker-class females are instead expected to care for mudokon young. Though I doubt you will have received their care," This, again, he said in just the right tone to turn a simple comment into an insult. "On the other hand, for some reason, a very small number of worker-females don't even develop the required... physiology to properly care for young mudokons, so these tend to get sold as cheap labour. Dionysia's further differences are merely the result of the experiments she was lucky enough to be chosen for."
It was a long time since he had been delivering lectures, and this mudokon was hardly what one might call an intelligent audience, but he caught himself getting into the swing of things.


Dionysia's anger at being laughed at, to the point where she was close to walking out of the lab, was replaced with a smirk when he said he could quit his job any time he wanted. Yeah, if he never wanted to work again and he didn't mind starving to death.

'Even worse than vykkers'? What was that supposed to mean? The idea that she might be more... 'vykker-y' than vykkers made her smirk; she respected, liked vykkers - why shouldn't she? However, this train of thought, coupled with his strange tone a moment later, brought her down from her anger. "I don't destroy what bothers me," She said, mildly, "Or you wouldn't be standing right now." (That was a bold claim, but then, so was his).
She liked sligs, not socially, but because they were predicable, because inside the toughness they were weak, and afraid; she was very much aware of this, even if she couldn't spot the exact same affliction in herself. And this was more or less what made her say what she did next; "And if you don't care a thing about me, then why are you so determined to understand me, to make me 'change my ways'?" She didn't say it angrily, or maliciously; more slyly.


ooc: That stuff about female mudokons is made up by me to try and justify the presence of the female mudokons that have appeared in the RPG. *shameless propaganda alert* I wrote a short story on the subject once, though it's only recommended for mature readers. *shameless propaganda alert*

-----OOC-----

@Splat : Sorry, a little mis-comprehension from me. I was talking about the mines being canceled (lie, there are no mines anyway :D) and I thought Anni was talking about the lights and the detectors...nevermind :happy:

Anyway, I totally forgot that Jim was Slig allergic, sorry about that :D (Holographic Slig appearing from a Deadly Security Bot...OMG Worstest nightmare ever :p)

And man, Anni sure doesn't like to be bossed around as you stated. O_o

OOC: Righty Oh, I think it's about time they found Dion, don't you? As for the tattoo thing, it's fine your ignoring it, it's more for me than anyone else. His tattoos are a part of his character and emotions, and it would be weird it they just stopped 'working' in some places and not in others.

IC:
Ark pondered the Vykkers response, and more over was surprised that he had given him one and admitted that the girl was experimented on.

They had gotten to the last flight of stairs, by the time the Vykker was finished. And now walking up them Ark stated, "I suppose that makes sense. Mudokons, especially ones that are born and raised as or little more than slaves don't have a whole lot of, if any, access to our history or biology as we might like. Granted most muds don't care for that, and just want to get their work done," Ark than chuckled a bit, all in good humor, "As for the idea that I even had a chance at being attended to by one of those female Mudokons, that's next impossible. There is almost no way that anyone would waste that time and money, especially when it's unnecessary. No, at Labor Force Ranch, we took care of each other."

Reaching the top of the flight of stairs Ark continued, "She was right around this bend, last time I saw her, Dr. Stone. She shouldn't be far."

Ark, while not necessarily liking Dr. Stone (which he thought was a kind of weird name, but it wasn't his business) he was starting to lean on him. Sure, he had threatened to take his life a few minutes ago, but who hasn't? But he had answered all of his questions. Ark now saw him more as a quick tempered, bitter, crumby old professor, but a professor that had once liked teaching. And this new mind set had made Ark's tattoos dim down to more of a shimmer.

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

It wasn't hard to locate her (since she wasn't exactly quiet), and as Ark and Krik approached it looked like she was having a heated argument with a Big Bro.

"Great. Does she ever stop arguing?"

IC:
---------Slen--------

Slen laughed when Rick said "BigBro out there had a starter match with you?" Slen quickly stopped when he pictured it in his head. "Nah, he patched me up. It was something I was least expecting." he replied "I, um...fell down the stairs" he felt silly everytime he said it and quickly tried to change the subject. "So, what are you in here for?" trying his best to ignore the yelling from the next room.

OOC: What is this?! Nearly half a page of progress in 3 days!... I guess forgot about how lenghty some of you can get when it comes to W@RF posts. Serves me right.

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

"Patched you up?" asked Rick, astonished, momentarily forgetting about his own situation. "That's kinda unusual from a BigBro, and I've seen some of them. Then again, a BigBro wouldn't stop at breaking your limbs... and maybe I should shut up now." said Rick, realising that he started to become inconsiderate.

For a few seconds he listened to the heated argument coming from the next room, then he remembered that Slen asked him a question. "Oh, me? Well, I guess there's a moment in everyone's career when they are late on the day when their boss is not in the right mood. Apparently, nowadays it is considered the worst of all sins, being late... Next time I might as well try hitting Arnie over the head with a Cafeteria tray - just to see how much more severe the punishment would be..."

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

Arnie listened to Emlech as the Vykker entered the Office and explained the situation. "Not much trouble on my behalf. As far as I can remember, she was assigned to..." he said as he walked over to his computer and had a look at some of his files. "...Group 1, Production Lines."

He looked back at Emlech. "Does she already know that she's about to leave? Should I send someone for her, or do you want to seek her out personally?"

The more they talked about Anni, the more Arnie remembered. "Ah, I think I now know who's the Mudokon you want. Pink skin, relatively young, isn't she? I can recall assigning her to a... secondary task of sorts." Arnie was a bit reluctant to complain about Anni, but she seemed rather important to Emlech, and besides, she was in his possession in the end.

"Well, the reason for that was that she has a real knack for getting into trouble. Annoying the Sligs, mostly. I can't deny that there were... scuffles." 'That's one way to put it', he thought. "In short, she slowed down some of my workers, and she was working less efficiently herself in return. Then came the idea of starting a sub-facility inside the factory to produce spice for the products we make - she was rather ecstatic to be working there. I guess it's the nature-mentality of their kind... They can do magic with plants."

Arnie, of course, exaggerated a bit. He actually had no idea on how the 'garden' was doing and whether Anni was attending to it or not.

ooc:well i just started and well where should i go to get a job here :(

IC:

Jim: "Oh, Ralph helped me find you."

"Hi," Anni said, giving him a sunny smile.

Ralph just shrugged, "More like I just followed you." Before he could say anything else the Giant Flipping Robot turned up and asked what they were doing there.

Observing the argument between Anni and SU-01, he noticed Jim stumble over the tree in fright of the hologram of a slig being projected from the robot.

Remembering Jim's fears, he walked to the other side of the tree so he was on the same side as the cowering mudokon and said quietly, "It's fake, Jim. Take a look, it's just being projected from the machine."

<●-●-●-●-●>

After escorting Mars out of the factory through the basement, Hembar watched until he was out of sight. A few minutes later, she noticed the watch towers lighting up - someone had activated the long-neglected security systems in the stockyards. Lucky timing for Mars, she thought.

It was going to make things tricky for her own eventual departure, but for now she had other business to attend to. Turning back to the factory, she re-entered the basement and started making her way to where her path had originally crossed with the young native mudokon.

A slight blue glow surrounded her for a few moments, then her skin appeared to darken, making her appear almost invisible. This was to stop the paramites from detecting her again like last time - as long as she made no noise they wouldn't be able to "see" or even smell her. Of course, this would make finding the meech a little difficult too, as it would be subject to the same conditions.

Eventually she came across the area where she had met Anni and Mars earlier. There was no sign of the creature she was looking for, which was both a good thing and a bad thing. Good, because if it had stayed here it probably couldn't have stood up for itself in the condition it was in, but bad because she wasn't sure where it would've gone.

Looking around, she noticed her vision suddenly becoming foggy. She shook her head and blinked, but it didn't help. She wasn't sure exactly what was causing it, but in any case she decided she needed to get out of this dangerous area as soon as possible. Not trying to be silent anymore, she started running toward the safer areas of the factory, while her eyes seemed to be blurring even more.

She turned around a corner and suddenly stopped, nearly tripping over in the process. She could've sworn she saw a face there looking at her, although with her current vision problems perhaps it was just her imagination. She suddenly swung around the way she had came from, hearing a vicious sounding snarl from right behind her. But there was nothing there. Ok, what on Odd is going on? she thought. She staggered a bit, feeling consciousness slipping away, and collapsed to the floor, a dim green glow surrounding her.


OOC: Scary stuff is happening to Hembar :fuzblink:
And this post is not late. Honest! Hey, look over there! *runs off*

IC (Finally!):
Crunchy stumbled out of the broken pipe, swaying slightly as he regained his senses. That had not been a well, that was for sure. He was alright now, surely? There seemed to be a major blind spot in the middle of his field of perception... He paced slowly towards where the feeling of emptiness was coming from. Suddenly, something changed nearby. Some presence came into existence momentarily. Crunchy shrieked and ran headfirst into a wall.

OOC:
Took a bit of artistic license there, Gretin. I thought that the bond between our little pair would at least let Crunchy detect Hembar's absence, y'know? I seem to remember I decided how Crunchy percieved the world a while ago, but I've forgotten now :confused:

Hey Splat

could you give me a hand please?
Don't know where I am currently -x-;;
Been busy lately

Last left my Slig character was wandering around the lobby
so I'm waiting for some other worker etc to show her round then get to work and up to speed with rp.:catslug:

-----IC-----

SU-01 was getting nowhere arguing with this stubborn Mudokon, as usual. His robotic body emitted a long steam noise, like he was sighting. The holographic slig grinned nastily and took a couple more steps towards Anni.

"Very well. I'm on my way to the factory, then. Just make sure you get back to your post ASAP. I'll have some questions to ask you." He turned back and looked at the Mudokon cowering behind the tree. He acted like drawing a pistol and shooting twice at him before disappearing as the holo-projector's lens closed.

The hovering modules appeared under the robot's feet, creating a tick dust fog around him. A few seconds later, he was already far away from the garden. He reached the basement and hoped to see some Paramites along the way, but he crossed no one of them. He went across the ruins, his hovering reverberating in the entire wrecked part of the building. He finally got to the first floor and went straight to Arnie's office. The door was still closed but not locked anymore. According to his sensors, there was a Glukkon, and a Vikker inside. To avoid disturbing them, he just sent a message to the computer inside the room.

----------
From : SU-01

"Back from patrol. Stockyards security re-activated. Encountered three Mudokons employees [See identification log below] near the railway crossing. Due to current restrictions, non-violent methods had to be applied. Refused cooperating and getting back into the factory. Currently outside of your office. Waiting for instructions.

----------

In the said report, the name of Anni appeared on the top of the list.

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

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, :eek:


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?

OOC: No problem Splat. I thought that that might be the case, thus the little vague, slight, time lapse in my post; to allow for something else to happen :p

I prepared :D.

OOC: No problem, MeechMunchie :D Just a note, Hembar is no longer "invisible," kinda the opposite really what with the green glow. She'll be coming back around shortly though, don't worry :p

I'll post IC later (but hopefully not as later as I usually do :p)

***OOC***

SORRY! I have been busy in so damn many ways x3… (Well, I have to go to the medic since finally the leg wanted to die :p not really die, but it was hurting like hell) I hate medicine when it includes exercise… I am a lazy bum x3! I don’t like to go outside :p.

Well, let’s write sumthing x3!

Also, it is hard to get her wrong if he is acustomed to the normal Mudokons and this gets him more than confused... and angry, till now.

***IC***

Dbreak grunted, rubbing his tentacles before saying.

“Don’t know anymore, to say the truth” He grumbled “I got angry and more than trying to understand I was trying to repress the urge to bass your head against the wall” Dbreak admitted with a grin “I will admit something though: You enjoy my frustration way too much, alongside my confusion. This will be the only time, however; I will be working here until I see it fit to leave so you and I will have probably more chances to talk… I hope you don’t mind the next time will be in more peaceful manners”

He had finally calmed down a bit, probably simply because he was making a fool of himself and wanted that to end right now. The Big Bro never did hurt anyone that didn’t deserve it… and here he was sure that someone did deserve that, but not her.

“However, I will not remain angry with you. Those were only words I am used to and I simply… snapped” Shrugging, Dbreak relaxed a bit “The ones I will plan on meeting with less… friendly terms are those that made you what you are AND don’t tell me that you were like this the whole time” He grunted, not letting her say anything only in case “Say whatever you want, you are a different Mudokon but you are a Mudokon, just as I am a Big Bro… a Big Bro that DOES enjoy crushing if someone deserves it” Chuckling he turned “Which would mean, as I said, the ones that made you like you are. For now however… I will go to meditate for a while and ensure I calm down enough. Enjoy yourself, I am sure you will”

Walking away he sighed. Dbreak didn’t like to get that angry, didn’t like to be that… stupid… He needed to relax and talk with the boss whenever possible. Maybe KK7 was in one of the rooms near his previous spot? He walked that way, saluting gently at the Mudokon that was on his way and not paying any mind, or simply bumping away, the Vykker that was with him.

***OOC***

Seriously I thought by now he would try and kill her because he was at the verge of it… or relax, get back to his usual condescending form and manners and walk away in the friendliest way possible while still wanting to do some damage to someone. He has good memory so if he finds out the place will have spooze holes I tell ya x3.

IC:

-------Slen-------
"Your in here because you were late!?" Slen said reacting to Rick, he wasn't too happy to here this "I arrived from a transfer a little while ago, I should have met with the boss of this place by now" Slen said, he listened and could no longer hear shouting from the lab "sounds like the argument's over"

OOC:
I'll probably wake Flad up next post

"Alright then." said Arnie to Emlech. "I'll call someone to assist you in finding her." He turned back to his computer, and after a few voice commands and a message, #7 Slig hurried into the room.

"Yes sir?" he said, before noticing Emlech. "Oh, good day." he said to the Vykker.

"#7, this Vykker here is Emlech. You might remember him from a few years ago - we had an agreement about a couple of his Mudokons working here for a time." said Arnie. "He wants one of them - Anni - back."

"I see." said #7 Slig, listening.

"You're going to help him find her and assist Emlech in retrieving her. Have you seen her on the screens by chance?... Oh, hold on..." A sound came from the computer, showing a message coming from SU-01. Arnie read the message, then turned back to the others.

"Well, that makes things easier. SU says here that he saw Anni just now, near the railway crossing. I think that's where her garden is located..." Arnie had a look at the message again. "It might be a bit more difficult to get there though: SU says that he reactivated the Stockyards security system. He's just outside the Office though, so he could tell you more of the situation."

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

"Yep, that was my big crime." said Rick to Slen, shrugging. "Arnie seems to be in a temper these days, so maybe you don't want to see him at all. Speaking to Otto - his assistant might be a better idea. I guess he's around the Executive Office somewhere. Hey, and could you or someone else get me some water and a Scrab Leg from the Cafeteria? The servants of my resort are having a day off, so I don't get the usual feast on silver plates... you know how it is." he said, returning to his sarcastic tone.

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 :fuzconf:

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'. :p
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 :p

-----OOC-----

Well, I don't know...Maybe I can delay the interview a little more :p 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."

OOC: If you wake up Flad, make sure to wake up Borso too. He's very lazy.

IC:

-------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.

Thanks Splat pardon my slowness life is currently very busy outside the web :catslug:

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

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.

IC:

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

"This guy sure likes dancing" Flad thought smiling, "how can a guy be so happy in a place like Mudos?" still thinking to himself. "Alright then off we go" Flad said and began to leave when he saw KK7 fiddling with some things further down the room "Hey! ...Um" thinking back Flad realised he did not know the other Slig's name "We're off to the boss' office. You comin along?"

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

IC: "Ship shape dude, c'mon" Borso gently tapped the Slig (KK7) on the shoulder. "You know my name... but what's your name?"

***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...

-----IC-----

"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."

IC:

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 :p) 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: Excuse the three paragraphs of backstory/shameless plugs there :p

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: :eek:
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.

IC:
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.

-----OOC-----

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 :p 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 ^^.
