Blah, blah, blah. I'm not your personal flamethrower. It doesn't work like that. Man how annoying. Though, if she was in better shape she would love to hear the details about how it worked... But right now their talking just made her head throb even more. Then the explosions. How god. It was so unbearable and she couldn't keep her hand nearly frozen any longer. Not without some frostbite or anything at least. So it returned to normal, leaving her with nothing to soothe the pain. "Wake me when we get there." She finally said, squished up next to the door by the others. And though she was a bit weary of windows now her head rested against this one anyway. The hope to sleep off the pain took over and she closed her eyes, though not falling asleep right away.
Wow what a bummer. It sounded like such a pain not to remember anything that happened a month prior, though she probably wouldn't mind that side effect. However...with it she guessed you couldn't remember making that choice or not. How counter productive. 'You have no idea what's like.' Obviously, but what an annoying statement. With it she raised her hand to her face, resting it on the counter while Arianna finished sharing her tale. By the end of it she almost said 'tough luck,' but as she was still keeping up appearance and had seen the girl nearly cry she couldn't bring herself to it. Though she couldn't bring herself to look anymore than just a smidge sympathetic, either. "Let's meet them." Before she could continue Vergil entered the bar so she paused. During this pause Thallen did something. Rosalie wasn't sure what but she would at least wait until they were finished. When it sounded like she was done Rosalie continued. "I'll make whoever it was tell you the truth, then you'll know for sure." And owe me.
▌ This is terrifying... ● Location Unknown ● No OOC ▐ With a nod she followed Marina's instructions, starting down the hallway. She decided to go through the first doorway she could make out, hoping there would be something to help them or, even better, a way out.
Consent is giving. Will also be willing to guest write, if wanted. On another note I have been meaning to make a Rouge but after the loss of my last profile I have been lazy in that regard. May get it finally done this week, though.
Rosalie decided to take a seat instead of returning behind the counter, picking a stool with empty spaces on either side. This left enough room for her to take out her cell without her elbows hitting Thallen when it rang. The text from Teagan read like a drunken one so asking her about it would be saved for later. Then Vergil's had him near by so she could just wait for him to get here. When she put it back Thallen had addressed her. "Yeah, called shortly before you got here. Had Ash with him... Told him someone from Red Flag was here, too." She went back to Arianna's words, having thought about them little up until now with the arrival of Thallen distracting her. So they wished for Alphas to join them... Well, if all followed Ross' recruitment tactic of not even explaining things then it had to be a small group. Luckily for them whoever had spoken to Ari was more helpful. "So, Alphas' rights?" She scoffed. It wasn't a bad purist but from personal experience she believed that normal humans would not accept them no matter how hard they tried. What a foolish group. Rosalie excepted for Ari to say more but when nothing else was stated she gave her a confused glance. "Also?"
▌ This is terrifying... ● Location Unknown ● No OOC ▐ After helping Marina into the crib Hazel started to hear a crying child. Since there was a crib...it wasn't too surprising. But the fact all of them were being held here in such a suspicious way had made it seem unlikely such a small thing would exist here. A stuffed animal... If a child was crying then perhaps one would help it. All were torn but she found one in a better condition than the others. If they found the kid she will give them this. Either way if it was in this room they would have noticed it already so they left, Hazel pushing Marina along. At least the dangerous took the lead so Hazel could follow her figure. Normally she would not follow one armed and seemingly insane, however here Marigold seemed like an asset... A threatening voice kept calling out to them. Marina called back, causing Hazel to cringe. She did not want someone promising to kill them to follow her voice straight to all four of them. Especially when what Marina said only seemed to make things worse. Marina actually went to him. She followed, worried what he could do to her, but kept her distance. But, after a short series of events, he fell to the ground and remained motionless. So she approached, Was...he really dead? "Is he really..." As much as she longed to help people there seemed nothing else to do if he was already dead. She could help the living, though. "I'll help you back into the crib..."
▌ This is terrifying... ● Location Unknown ● No OOC ▐ Cherno, Marigold, and Marina. She matched the names with voices while they spoke but when one attacked, Marigold she assumed, Hazel backed away and began seeking a way out. It was hard, being who she was, though with a hazy image she would have to manage. Though before any progress was made Marina, the reasonable sounding one thus far, called out to her. That was the same one that cried out in pain, she thinks. "Hazel... My name, if anyone wanted..." she muttered, moving over to Marina. The girl seemed to be hugging her legs so she reached out, figuring she could help the other walk while having her lead the way, for the most part. She didn't want to reveal that she was pretty much blind, not here and to these strangers. So she really hoped Marina would take her offer. "I can help you walk."
[ Contact Information ► Mood: !!! ► Location: Torture Chamber ► OOC: N/A ] Through his own screams he heard Theodore shout Crestatia's name and thought that it could work. But him dealing with the demon was why they were here in the first place, so he was turn. Though, they didn't have many options. "We can make another deal?" His voice was forced through gritted teeth, his wrist beginning to bleed as he tried to squeeze them out of their restraints. He managed to turn enough that halted the rat, but no way could he break free and save all three in time before they perished. Something had to be done. This couldn't be their end. "I'll beg you."
oh wow that sucks. pats. poor hubby
[ Contact Information ► Mood: !!! ► Location: Torture Chamber ► OOC: Trigger warning ] People entered, judging by the sound of the footsteps anyway for he could not see them. Turning he noticed they were all cloaked and heading to each of them. Elliot began to struggle again, wishing to be free of his binds. Maybe, just maybe, if he shook them enough the metal holding him would loosen enough for him to escape. His attention was place on that, though he had noticed Olivia use his actual name. Well, if he were to die here than at least that was something. Though why did she have to cry? Stupid girl. Then there was Theodore. If he had waited just a little longer... These thoughts did not last. His shirt and jacket were lifted to expose his stomach and a rat was placed on top of it. A bucket, he assumed, was then put on top of it. He began failing the best he could while restrained, begging for them to get it off of him. When the bucket started to be heated and the rat clawed at him he shook violently, now shouting for them to stop.
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: Laughs ► OOC: Elliot just ignores Vanille wow rude ] This was the second time he was woken up by that voice, only this time it was more clear. They had to be in the same room now. What this room was, well he couldn't tell. The lighting provided by the candles were hardly enough to get a good look at it and he couldn't move to do so, either. Wait...couldn't move... The shock of the discovery caused the boy to fully awaken. He could not move much, only squirm as he attempted to break free of his binds. When it failed Elliot began to take in other facts. For one he no longer wore the suit. That was a relief, for the sweat would make it unbearable. And the radiation should not be a factor. The second was that he could starve on the spot, but that was quickly written off as an unimportant note for the time being. Lastly, there were other voices, both of which he knew. "Olivia? T-Theodore?" So his deal worked. But if this was the price then... He also wasn't sure how he felt about hearing that dolt's voice again, either. Out of all the places they could meet again... Well, at least she was no longer a bird.
▌ This is terrifying... ● Location Unknown ● Thanks Jayn for the banner ▐ When it was first declared that her, along with several others she did not know, their house was stormed and searched by agents. Probably homeland security, but she wasn't sure. During that time she hid in a panic room and watched as the dark figures danced on the screen. It was a bit much to bear so she put in her headphones and listened to the many recordings she made with the computer. Among them was a strange email she had received a while back and, when she flashed back to it, she remembered that the list of names from it and the ones to be hunted were the same. Were they connected? Regardless, everything changed then. She could not stay in that house so she was moved to live with a relative at the shrine and there it was fairly safe. They had food, water, and protection against the radiation that tainted the air. She thought she could live out the bombings here, though this proved to be a false hope. From the shrine to this unknown place within what felt like a second with no idea how. What woke her was a female voice calling out. Groaning, she sat up. Someone sounded angry, the others confused. "Who's there?"
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: N/A ] He cringed at forgetting to specify. But she seemed willing to do what he asked so far and he did not wish to ruin it or upset her by going back on his words. If he had not been set on fire before then maybe he would risk it, but as he had been he couldn't. And maybe it was naive of him but he did hope Madeline really did get a turn. Though it would not surprise him if she didn't. "Yes, we have a deal."
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: N/A ] Seemed like nothing mattered to her until she got what she wanted. Noted for next time, if there ever was a next time. He didn't know if he could go through this ever again. Sweating and nerves... No thanks. "Our... My friend Theodore was crushed," probably, "and I wished to make a deal to bring him here. Alive and well. And the hunt for us ended, as well." If it couldn't be ended for everyone than maybe just for them. He'd wait for her reply first though.
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: N/A ] Right. Dumb. One more look around the classroom and he went to the teacher's desk. Oh, a coffee maker was there. Stress must have made him missed it before. He rushed over to it now and made a quick cup, hurrying it to the girl.
8 [ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: N/A ] Luckily the suit protected him from the glass, still he jumped and covered his face with his arms. When he lowered them he looked at the new figure. "Cake and coffee...?" Nothing like that was here. He did, however, go to his bag and search through it for food. He found a snack bar and held it up questionly. "We really don't have much, but you can have this and whatever else I may find. If that works, may we work out a deal?"
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: im stupid ] He didn't know how he could be careful from this point, since he was already taking a dangerous route. But after a quick glance back from their last attempt he remembered that they were set on fire for messing up and needed to apologize to fix it. She was a touchy being, that one. So he would at least be watchful of his words. At that thought he stated that he was ready, stepping back some. Did she need to invite the demon in? That seemed to be a thing but Marina was the first to call Crestatia but then that other girl got possessed. So he was slightly confused on this part. But if calling her down himself got him possessed then he hoped the blonde would handle it, even if he'd rather do it himself. "Right...to call Crestatia down..." He felt a bit silly. If someone had told him he would be summoning something magical he would laugh in their face and walk away. But now it was perfectly logical. He still didn't know exactly what to say, though. "May we be humbled by your presence?" Not as dramatic as what Marina had said but simpler could be better.
Username: Nilin Doll's Name: Alyssa Doll: Spoiler
[ Contact Information ► Mood: ... ► Location: BAE ► OOC: N/A ] A distant voice spoke, distorted and surreal sounding. It was one from those who were trapped in the tunnels with them but he couldn't remember her name. Really, he didn't even know her. So why was her voice in his dreams? Though, once he was nudged he realized that he wasn't even sleeping. So...the voice was real. This caused him to get up faster than normal, resulting in a light head and dizziness. A moment was taken to steady himself before he glanced over to Madeline. It looked like she could use help carrying everything so he moved over to do so. "Picking up where we left off?" He asked, unsure what to do about the intercom at the moment. Could they even be trusted? Well...talking wouldn't hurt, since it was obvious their location was no secret. But this could help more, so talking could wait.
