The Voyage of the Requiem IV


Recommended Posts

OOC:

 

IC: 7725, Lift: Requiem IV It had been a rather uneventful ride in the lift. His companions had been rather quiet and he hadn't been able to think of any conversation starters. He felt the lift come to a stop. The screen displayed an arrival message. "We're here." The doors slid open and the group piled out. They found themselves in... OOC: I know I have permission to bunny 306 a little for the sake of keeping track of her, but I don't know where anyone else is. Your move GM.

OOC: I never gave you permission for the elevator to move. Still, this makes my plan quite a bit more amusing.-Toa Levacius Zehvor :flagusa:

 

My apologies, nobody was doing much of anything, so I made something happen. Seems it finally caught your attention. :PIC: 7725, Lift Wreckage: Requiem IV7725 came to in a pile of wreckage. It seemed the lift had mostly collapsed, though he didn't know how much, as there was a piece of metal pinning his chest down.He moved his arms to move the remains of the lift off. He could feel the metal budge slightly, but it was no use. Exhaling as much as he could, he tried again and scooted out slightly. Yes, this would work. With the beam now just below his chest, he inhaled, sucking in his gut. He pulled himself the rest of the way out and stood up.He immediately stumbled. His whole body hurt. His innate endurance had lessened the impact, but not all of it.7725 looked up. Maintenance lights gave him some idea of where he was, but it wasn't quite enough. He flipped on his headlamp and saw the rest of the group sprawled out from the lift. He was glad they had been thrown free of the crash and not crushed.He swung his light around the shaft, surveying the situation. They appeared to have two options: continue through the shaft, possibly finding a floor exit, or escape through the maintenance hatch, which would probably be very confined.He ran to each member of the group, lightly shaking them to wake up. They needed to get out of there, and he wasn't sure he had the strength to move all of them quickly to safety.OOC: I hope that's at least a slight creative improvement.

IC:"Seriously? They steal our memories? If I find either of those two, I'll gonna kill them!" #29824 exclaimed. "Ya think, Seven? They just waltz in, hold us at weapon point and steal our memories! In case you couldn't tell, I'm not happy about that!" 29824 took a deep breath to calm down. "Okay, I'm calm now. Sorry about that rant. What should our next move be?"OOC:Yay! I'm involved! Although I'm not sure if that's good or bad, at least I'm moderately important.

IC: 72 (Stairway)

"Officers Deck."

She's calmed down somewhat by now, and her voice is less annoyed than before, but now tart and short.

"Even though I don't really want to go on another elevator. Using the halls could provide more weaponry before we actually reach the Officer's Deck, but if everyone wants to use the lift, I'll go that way."

And now the Ce-Matoran's just grumpy.

IC: 8 in Personal Deck

 

8 woke up with a start. His finger tips felt cold and if that wasn't bad en- cold? He was wearing a suit....was the inide cold or was he feeling the metal of the ship. He check his weapon systems only to find another program running.

 

'Touch'. Well, yeah, now he knew he'd made this. That sounded like the kind of vague title he'd come up with.

 

Now on to the problem at hand. The guy freaking broke through his mind shield that he'd some how just remembered. <sarcasm> Yay, more unplaceable memories </Sarcasm>. So, that either meant he had REALLY strong mind reading abilities or his mind shield was just a little rusty.

 

He manged to catch a bit of the conversation before his mind shield broke, however, not as much as that one guy over there....what was her name....or did he even know it. Any way there were other matters that needed to be dealt with.

 

Like that 27 guy. Creator? Creator my-

 

A pop-up came to view on 8's visor stating something very annoying. Weapon systems down for five minutes. COME ON.

IC: CannonLocation: Lift Wreckage "Ow.... my everything. First I get fried and now I nearly plummet to my death.... What a day." Cannon groaned as 7725 roused him. He tried to move and found his legs were pinned under the wreckage of the lift."Well now I can add crushed to that list. I should have stayed in my pod." He tried to move the metal pinning him down with little success. "Hey guys, a little help over here. I can't move this on my own." IC 0006LOCATION: Personnel Quarters with 29824, 0007, and 0008 6 awoke to the sound of somebody complaining about... stolen memories. She was laying splayed on the ground wondering to herself what had just happened. One minute she was trying to defend the two being held at gunpoint. Then she couldn't move as 404 knocked 'Crescent Rose' out of her hands and then.... wait 'Crescent Rose' was missing. She jumped to her feet and looked around for her missing weapon. It was her only defense on the Requiem. She saw her Rifle lying a few feet from her and went to grab it. For a second she considered holstering the weapon then thought better of it, the other two could still be around and getting a shot on the one who had rendered her unconscious sounded pretty satisfying. She looked at the Toa who had just finished ranting about what had just occurred and approached him. She could see 29824 printed on his chest and he had referred to the Glatorian as 7.... Another officer perhaps? And somebody else she hadn't noticed before a Toa wearing red and green Power Armor. Was it getting darker in here? "Well, 29824 our next move is to get the Karz out of here. I for one don't feel like getting knocked out by freaky mind powers again by some lunatic who thinks they are my Creator." she said poking the taller Toa in the chest and continuing down Personnel brushing past the trio. She looked back at the them not breaking stride. "Or you can stay here and twiddle your thumbs."

 

EDITED: Happy people? :P

OOC:Woah... a little over-sized text there in that last post, Erebus? :PIC: [ 391 ] - Training Deck / Personnel Lift"Hallways, lifts... it's all the same to me." commented the female Onu-Toa thoughtfully. "But 72 has a point, and if there's one thing we need right now, it's solid leadership. I'm with the officer. Anyone else up for a bit of a walk?"

OOC: First of all, Erebus, in your earlier post:

 

7 wasn't on her knees. She was still in stand off, and even Lev's post acted that way.

 

Second, you yourself don't know that 7 is a rank below you, much less your character. That's the theory, but even we don't know for sure that lower number = higher rank, at least among the single digits.

 

Plus, it's kinda fuzzy that you would hear the comments made after the mind control kicked in.

 

IC: (Seven)

 

"You're being morons."

 

She put a hand to her faceplate.

 

"Sorry, but..."

 

"Fact is, if we run into them again, we're skewed. None of you can lift a finger to hurt them, and I don't fancy my chances against that kind of weaponry with only a pair of laser blades and a makeshift taser. So, if any of you have ideas that don't involve pretending to be tough and charging into the wild blue yonder, I'm open to hearing them."

1. It was late when I posted that and I had to skip back and forth between 3 pages and make numerous edits. I think I am entitled to a little leeway for making a post that is inconsistent with your characters position.

2. You are correct. Post Edited

3. Your post about 6 missing part of the conversation because of it being 'fuzzy' is irrelevant considering Damacarax is the same species as I am, was just as affected by the Deus Ex MAchina as I was and he caught it too. I'm just rolling with it. If there is a problem the GM will say something in which case I will edit my posts. Or if somebody raises a good enough point as you did in point 2. It is probably better to keep posts like this in the Personnel Quarters Topic rather then in game.

 

IC: 6

LOCATION: PERSONNEL QUARTERS

 

She cocked her head back in 7's direction.

 

"I don't have to pretend to be tough, 7." She said coolly to the Glatorian twirling the rifle and turning it into its Scythe form, holding it behind her back, blade to the ground. "If you would like I could prove just how tough I am to you... In fact I would probably relish the opportunity in knocking you down to the ground."

 

"Honestly it doesn't look like you lifted much of a finger against them either, girly, no blood on the floor, no corpse, nothing. So you can cut your little superiority complex."

 

"Besides 'charging into the wild blue yonder' is a better idea then sticking around here and waiting for someone else to come after us. Especially those two. And unless you have a map, wandering aimlessly is the only choice we have. I agree that looking for better armaments does seem like the best idea, however we aren't going to find anything here. So its best we move on."

 

She continued down the corridor.

 

OOC2: Lets see where this goes before I act on my first idea. I think 6 and 7 are going to be the best of friends don't you Lakefish? :)

OOC: 008 is a Toa of psionics. Mental shielding.It was still broken through, but it allowed him a few more seconds.Also, Seven's knowledge of the plating:Her suit database is on the workings and blueprints of power suits.IC: (Seven)Seven shrugged. "Nice scythe. I imagine that makes up for the fact that you have no weapons in your suit? Or does it make up for lack of combat ability?""I'm not a good fighter, I freely admit that. I'm just the only one of us who doesn't get lulled to sleep by his voice."She put her hands behind her back."Bravado isn't a thing of mine, logic is. And I'd like all of us to get out of this in one piece. Wandering is all well and good, but I'd suggest a more... Careful attitude about it.""Also, my weapons have a maximum operating range of a bio. Factor in bullet speed and trigger time, and you'll find that it was physically impossible for me to get to 404 in time to do any damage whatsoever."OOC: Oh yes. Best of friends.

OOC: Muaka-Fight. Rawr. XD

 

Also, you can see on 8's skill list that he has mental shielding. That and being a toa of psionics offers some limited resistance against all mind attacks

 

IC: 8 Personnel Deck

 

8 just stood as as they fought trying to think of a plan.

 

"We can't stay...we already saw one mutant and although the possibility of there being more coming here at this exact location would be a large coincidence it would be best to move away from here just-in-case." 8 thought to himself.

 

A pop-up flashed on his visor stating that weapon systems would return in 1 minute.

 

So, what did he have? Weapons that he hadn't even seen yet and the ability to feel outside of his suit in his finger tips without having to actually be outside his suit. He also had mask that cold do something. It must be a mask that requires physical contact because there would be no other use for his touch program without it, or so he guessed.

IC:006LOCATION: PERSONNEL QUARTERSShe spun around focusing on the point just in front of 7 and activated her Kualsi. When she appeared before the shocked Glatorian, 6's scythe blade at the back of 7's neck."And yet logic alone didn't exactly keep me from gaining the upper hand on you did it. Don't move a muscle wouldn't want an accident." "Combat data was downloaded when I woke up. As was how to use this." She said pointing at the helmet with the mask hidden underneath. "I know several ways to take you down.""And 'Crescent Rose' more then makes up for my suits offline weapons." She said removing the blade from the back of 7's neck she stepped back a few feet."I'm sorry that us biomechanical beings are so inferior to you 7, seeing as how we fell asleep due to an unexpected mental assault." She said with a mock bow to the Glatorian."If you want to lead 7, by all means do so. I won't stop you. But you yourself just said that your not a fighter. So I guess that makes you our Tarakava bait. That would be the most logical choice... at least for us." she said with a smile. She was sure she had used the expression in the correct context, but was unsure where it had come from.She walked over to one of the pods and leaned against it eyes focused to another point in the room.

"I hate to interrupt your argument, but you might want to keep quiet. Just a precaution to keep us from attracting unwanted attention", 8 said gesturing toward the gory mess of the once lively monster that 404 had basically slaughtered.

 

8 walked over to the remains of the creature. He couldn't help, but feel sorry for it.

 

"May you rest in peace friend", 8 said almost crying.

 

He read the pop-up again. Weapon systems would be returning in thirty seconds.

IC: 337 - Training Deck / Lift - Talking:

 

"Walking is fine with me. The lift provides a sure route, most likely void of any foes that we could happen upon; but, the hallways- like 72 said- could have valuable weaponry, or other items of use. I vote on the Hallways, considering our current state of arms," he said. In all honesty, as long as the group stayed together, either way was perfectly fine to him; as long as they stayed on guard, the Hallways would be no issue for them.

IC: (Seven)Analysis: Blade at the back of neck.It'll take time to cut through the suit.Longer than it will take to cut through or block the scythe with a blade-But the scythe is one of the only range weapons, and the only weapon capable of being transferred from person to person.Seven just smiled."In a normal situation, biomechanical beings such as yourselves are far superior to an organic like me. Masks, elemental powers, while I only have my strength and speed.""However, using me as bait would be the absolute least logical thing you could do. The known enemies, in this case, aren't going to come after me as likely as you. I'm a much harder takedown for 27, because the exact thing that makes me weak protects me from him."She sighed. "This is all conjecture, of course. There could be something in our backgrounds that makes us different.""I hate to interrupt your argument, but you might want to keep quiet."Seven nodded. "Eight, you're right. Sorry."

"Well Sparky, first we went up and then gravity kicked in and then and we plummeted back down to earth, there was lot of screaming, holding onto each other, some praying, and finally laying unconscious in a heap of metal." Cannon said sarcastically attempting to remove the metal pinning his legs.

 

"And I would really appreciate some help getting this accursed thing off of my legs, so would you kindly give me a hand, Sparky."

With a quick flourish that blurred 'Crescent Rose' 6 returned it to its default form and attached it back to the magnet. She never took her eyes from the Glatorian as she spoke and even returned the smile even though 7 couldn't see it. All the while she shot daggers at her elemental counterpart with her eyes.

 

She nodded at 8's suggestion, Still not taking her eyes from 7.

 

"Again I would rather 'charge into the wild blue yonder' then wait around here for somebody to attack us again."

 

6 turned and headed back down the corridor a second time.

IC: (Seven)Seven clicked her tongue. "Patience, firespitter. I agree that we need to move, but walking off dramatically is a good way to get your head separated from your body. Slow down, tread carefully."As if to illustrate her point, she followed slowly, a blade igniting as she kept looking down each hall as she passed, and paying what some might thing unecessary attention to the walls.27 and 404 seemed to have disturbing habit of hiding in them to ambush.Hidden passageways. Bleh.

IC 006:

 

She waved a dismissive hand at 7 not breaking stride. Honestly she wasn't worried any intelligent being would have taken them out when they were bickering among themselves. But still she could not ignore the wisdom in 7's words and she found herself peaking into corners making sure nothing was there waiting.

 

She looked down the hallway her suits night vision revealing nothing of interest. She heard the approaching footsteps, her hand resting on 'Crimson Rose' just in case.

 

"Easy there 7." She said to the Glatorian following behind her. She didn't really expect 7 to attack but it didn't hurt to be on guard all the same.

 

OOC: only 3 hallways. I will send you Lev's Diagram in a moment.

She nodded continuing down the hall. Finally coming across one dark passage with a blood trail leading down it. She peered down it following the blood trail and saw no movement.

 

"Or wound us both, hampering our abilities to explore the ship and defend ourselves. Besides I don't know whether your lying about your combat prowess or not, although you really don't have a motive to lie do you?" 6 asked glancing back at the Glatorian.

 

She kept her hand on her HCSS waiting for 7.

 

"First passage, wanna take it or keep looking?"

IC: Cannon #686Destroyed LiftCannon shakily got to his feet. Honestly he didnt know how much more abuse his body was going to take. The suit had helped with the impact of the elevator crash more then he thought it would."Appreciate the help, Sparky." Cannon said softly clapping the injured Toa on the back not wanting to hurt her. He limped around the room."Anybody seen Bubbles?" He asked looking about for the Toa of Psionics.

"Patience, firespitter. I agree that we need to move, but walking off dramatically is a good way to get your head separated from your body." he remembered what 7 told him. Ha, little did she know that staying offered this fate as well, but if they were on the move they'd have a better look at the entire ship meaning this would probably be the best choice. This would also give them a far better guess of the ship's set-up. He was tempted to justify himself by explaining this this to her, but if they underestimate him in any way he could work that to his advantage.

IC:#29824 had a sword and pistol out, checking the other hallways briefly, making sure they were empty, when he turned around and saw the others had left him. "Typical," he grumbled, "overlook the short guy." He ran down the hallway, checking behind him every little bit to be sure they weren't followed. "Oh, sure," he complained when he reached the others, "just walk away from the short guy. He'll just get lost, we don't need to worry about him." He began walking with the rest of them, checking behind them as the rear guard.

IC: 7725, Lift Passage: Requiem IV7725 watched as 271 freed 686 from the wreckage. He looked around for 306. His light played across the floor until it fell on the body of his companion. She was face down, but she looked unconscious. He rushed over to her, rolling her on to her back and quickly checking the suit for major damage. She had a few surface scratches, but no serious suit damage. He didn't know if she had any internal damage, though. They would have to check later."She's over here and alive."He stood up. "We seem to have two options. We can take the maintenance passage and possibly find our way through the hard way, or we can follow the tracks and see how far down the elevator shaft goes."

"There are a thousand ways I could destroy you right now. And 941 of them hurt."

"Last I checked, you weren't the one who shot me."

 

She tapped her fingers against the wall gently, then nodded. "It's as good as any."

Cannon contemplated for a second weigh the options. Pain from the wound in his chest cut off his train of thought.

"Perhaps we should take the easier path." Cannon said with a wince.

 

He limped over to the unconscious Toa of Psionics. Had he been in better shape he would have picked the Toa of up and carried her long. Unfortunately with all of them wounded he didn't know how they were going to take her with them.

6 looked at the group, flourishing 'Crescent Rose' into rifle form.

 

"So.... It doesn't look like anybody has a flashlight on their person, huh? Anybody have night vision.... other then myself... or have the knowledge to activate it on their suits? If we get ambushed in the dark bloody hallway.... well the odds of survival aren't exactly in your favor...."

"I didn't over look you. You over looked us when we left.", he said smiling under his mask.

 

He checked his weapon systems and decided to turn on his sword. He pointed the place it would come out away from the others and the sight was pretty amazing. Blackish silver liquid expanded from the 'hilt' to make a blade that was almost as large as his arm and and twice as wide as his arm.

655 stayed silent. He was sick of getting outvoted whenever he suggested something, and chose that the rest of the group could make the decisions for now. "You guys can pick whatever you want. I'm going down the hallway." The Toa of Stone said as he walked into the hallway. If no one else was going to lead, he might as well do it.

 

OOC: 655 is irritated, not me. Just trying to keep him in character!

OOC: I don't know if anyone else is on the Personnel Deck in sight of 03608. For now, I'm assuming that she's alone. I'd like to properly participate in this RPG after failing to post anything but an introduction. :P* * *IC: 03608Personnel DeckAfter a time, she lifted herself so she was kneeling upright. A curious feeling permeated her limbs. Numbness? No. More like absence of purpose.She stood but was unsteady upon her feet.Legs sore with disuse brought her round in a circle and then again; disoriented eyes drank in every detail of her surroundings. The lights flickered. Her pace did not falter.On the inner surface of her helmet visor, dials and displays flashed and adjusted. Text near the top read "WARNING -- UNSAFE AIR LEVELS."Now she wasn't walking, only spinning in a circle like a malfunctioning automaton, eyes and mouth wide. Whoosh went her surroundings. She grew dizzy but didn't stop -- the feeling was, though odd, pleasurable.When she finally toppled, vertigo tilted the floor beneath her so that she cried out and curled into a ball until the undulations ceased and stillness had returned."No more spinning. No spinning. Spinning..."As if from inertia, her focus spun till it landed on the serial number imprinted upon her suit's wrist. She stared at it again, mouthing the numbers. Zero, three, six, zero, eight.She stood up again, eyes roving, and let her feet take her down the corridor of canisters so that she came to an intersection of rooms. Were those voices in the distance?She halted on her toes like a child unwilling to approach a stranger.
