Fantasy Anayian Revolution

[Bluesunnyday]

Epatus frowns. "Wow, you are hilariously misinformed. No, we're not nobles or anything. I'm a soldier, the lady's a scientist, and the blob is..."





Epatus grimaces. "I have no fucking idea what the blob is. I just got pulled outta my own world, so I'm as confused as you are."

 

[Lily Moriya]

Epatus, Anna, and G.A.R.Y:


Lily accepts Epatus' help up and starts explaining. "You are in a safe, underground laboratory near the surface of my world. You were brought here because we kinda need your help. There will be no fighting outside of the sparing room, and we will talk things over lunch. Okay?" Just as she finishes talking, the machine begins whirring again. This time, the noise grows louder and louder until you can feel it vibrating your own body.


Lily begins to look like she is going to throw up. "The machine.. It has something big.. Quick, get away from the platform!"


Mezbet:


You sit and enjoy your nice, herbal tea while the others head off towards the room with the machine. Loud noises come from the room. What could they possibly be doing in there? Whoever was brought through couldn't be that much of an issue, right? Alas, you don't truly know. A few other lab workers come into the room and pay you no mind, instead making their way to the food vendors.


Life is nice.

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Epatus grins widely at this announcement. "Fuck yes. This better be one hell of a challenge! I need blood."





Epatus glances over at the wolf woman still standing on the platform. "Well, you better get down here! Prove your might."

 

[aquaInferno]

Mezbet sighs as he decides its about time to catch up to the others. He stands up and stretches. It felt good to be free. Well, free from the Tome. For all he knew, he was a prisoner of this metallic structure. But the people treated him nicely so it was likely that this wasn't so.


When he finished pondering, Mezbet calmly strolled over to the room where Lily and the others ran off too. He saw a wolf warrior now standing in front of the group. Epatus and her seemed to be assessing each-others combat readiness.


Mezbet, standing in the hallway, occasionally sips on his tea as he curiously watches the pair in silence.

 

[Neow46]

(Experimenting with name colors still)


Anna listens to what the humans have to say, and thinks it over, gently lowering her great sword as she stares at them, particularly the one with the bloody guillotine axe...


"Those still only barely answer my questions...." Anna says as she stares at G.A.R.Y, being incredibly cautious of him...


"But if you promise answers then-"


Anna's somewhat startled as the platform begins to shake...


She hurriedly jumps up, her sword once again raised as she stands next to, but no to close, to the others.


I'll show you a true Knight's might then, strange bloody axe wielding person thing....


Anna thought to herself....

 

[Maurj]

"OH!! yes perfect! another new participant!! this gets interesting after a few but... geez!! i cant wait to see what other delicious perdiodical elements come out of this!!" G.A.R.Y says jumping excitedly, he jumps so much that small parts of his labcoat drop onto the floor as gray droplets of ooze, they quickly retrieve to his feet and regenerate what was left of the coat! He looks at everyone in the room, looking rather worried as he stops jumping and begins to look more serious towards them, of course this was all show from him... he wasnt actually serious. He looked over to anna rather confused as to how she was so distressed with him, he shrugged as he stared fixedly at the platform

 

[Lily Moriya]

Everyone:


Lily makes her way towards the wall behind the group and lays her hand on it. After a moment, the walls of the room around the platform expand, creating a rather large area for something to be brought in.


The machine continues to vibrate and hum. Then it stops.


One moment.


Two moments.


Just as Lily begins to relax, a flash of light summons a dragon the size of a large wolf & a tall woman clad in scarlet and black robes. The dragon tries to crawl off of the platform, but ends up falling over unconscious.


The robed woman looks over the room with solid red eyes and a smirk. "My my, Selena. Where have you taken me now?" Her voice resounds within the walls of the lab.


The aura around this lady feels overwhelmingly evil. You all feel like you are in for a bad time if this lady makes it out of here.


What do you do?

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Epatus frowns at this display. Did this woman have that dragon enslaved? Well, now, that just wasn't going to do.


"You." He begins, pointing his axe directly at the strange woman. "I don't like you."





Probably not the most intimidating statement, but considering his next action is to leap at the woman with his axe raised, hopefully that makes up for it.

 

[Maurj]

"Now now epatus, remember that one time when you didnt like me and i didnt smite you like the holy slime you thought i was? Perhaps she's just as confused as you were before!" G.A.R.Y walks up to the platform with the mysterious woman and stretches his hand "Hi! im G.A.R.Y, its nice to meet you! you seem like a...." He begins to sniff the air arround him as he smirks "Relatively.......... bad person, i know you're as confused as everyone else in here... but there's no need to fret! you'll be welcomed to this place as soon as you tell us your name, who are you?.... oh... and.. golly! i can tell you this right now.... there's no need to do anything you might regret... okay?" The smirk elongates a very big way into his face, now lips spread from ear to ear, showing an unatural amount of teeth "We dont need to cause any trouble to these poor researchers....."

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Epatus manages to bring his momentum to a stop, skidding to a stop just behind the slime.


"What the fuck?!? Why are you fraternizing with the enemy?!? She's enslaved a member of the Grand Generals! She's so obviously fucking evil it HURTS! Why are you stopping me?!?"





Epatus levels his axe again. "Give me a reason not to slay you right now, wench!"

 

[aquaInferno]

Something about the new woman was "off" to Mezbet. Her dragon creature looked...pained. Since he still had gone unnoticed back in the hallway, Mezbet decides to run back as quietly as possible to try to find some help.

 

[Neow46]

Anna gasped at the sight of a legendary mythical being, A Dragon... back in her world.... only Legends were able to slay them....


Although... they were normally double the size of this room... which was disappointing... let alone it seemed to be... enslaved.... by this eerily villainous woman...


Seeing how the Others Acted, Anna remains silent for a moment....


"I Will Say, I do not trust this... individual either.... She wears robes similar to the kingdom's enemies...."


Anna otherwise remained prepared for a fight now, keeping a tight grip on her great-sword.

 

[Lily Moriya]

( @Neow46 @Maurj @Bluesunnyday ) Epatus, G.A.R.Y, Anna:


The red lady looks down to the mysterious and gray man. “Hello, Gary. My name is Mary Reign. Some people call me the Bloody Mary. That is, after they turn to my side.” She looks over all of you like she is sizing you up. “Slaying is not on my schedule, sadly. I am going to go and check out where my little friend here has taken me.” She kicks the dragon in the gut, causing a cry of distress, and begins walking forwards. “If you know what is good for you, you will let me go forwards.”


( @aquaInferno ) Mezbet:


You run down the hallway, trying to find someone to help with the potential threat. Finding and alerting a group of lab workers, you are told that the combat team will be notified immediately.


They send off one of the scientists to go alert the team. The head lab worker looks back to you. “Now, please show me which lab room that the threat is within.”


( @Bluesunnyday ) Elizabeth & Mak’bael:


Elizabeth can feel a small tugging in the back of her mind. This is very unusual. Before she could tell Mak’bael, the both of you blink and find yourselves in the middle of a crater. On all sides, there are mountains preventing exiting. On the bottom of the crater, there is a small shack. Looking upwards at the sky you notice that a massive tear in reality is floating above the crater.


What is it that you shall do?


( @Thorn of Discord ) Melpomene:


A tugging in the back of your mind could be felt, making you turn around to find nothing. A long pause later, and you fall unconscious. When you awake once more, you find yourself on the floor of a run down shack.


Getting up, you notice that one of the walls has a large hole leading into a white metal hallway lit with glowing panels on the walls.


What do you do?


( @Raizel ) Taiga:


In the midst of the night, you have a strange dream where you are falling through many cracks and rifts in space. With each crack comes a new world. Desert, jungle, city, and ocean. This cycles a couple of times before you come to a place that has no rift where you are falling. You hit the ground, and wake up inside a white hallway lit by glowing panels on the walls.


A man in a lab coat runs past you in a hurry, yelling about a danger of sorts.


In this odd place, you find that you have everything you normally do when you go off in adventure.


What will you do?

 

[Thorn of Discord]

Melpomene did a once over to make sure all was well, but was disheartened at the lost of her Original Mqueeny Gown. "Where did it go...? For that matter, where am I?!" Her confusion growing by the minute, Melpomene drew close to the hole in the wall. Poking her head through Melpomene called out, "Hello? Is anybody there? I seem to be lost....".

 

[Neow46]

Anna frowns at the obvious display of cruelty the woman gave off...


...


Nor was Anna just going to let this bitch walk over her like this...


"I don't know where the hell I am either, but so far, besides this guy next to me being the only total asshole, I haven't been approached very hostilely at all by whomever the hell is the authority around here, but this guy with the bloody Axe definitely has a point. You do seem far too villainous to continue on-wards into what i presume is a rather okay township of sorts, or wherever this is..."


Anna referred to Epatus, hoping to get all that blood of his to boil further for backup in this fight she was stirring up.


"Who are you really? Some sort of Tyrant? Unholy monster? What is it you do to people then?"


Anna was openly challenging Mary now, Her stance rather Heroic as she held her great sword, once again in preparation for a fight.


"If you know what's good for you then, You won't go forwards."


Anna smiled, keeping her eyes on Mary.

 

[Maurj]

G.A.R.Y saw as mary kicked the dragon, as he slowly lowered his hand and ceased with his large grin, sighing and looking down at the floor "Darling... darling... darling.... Im sorry to break it out for you, but you arent going anywhere without our consent... It doesnt matter if you show this side" As he makes his face turn with a bright smile and a happy attitude "Or this one" As he turns his face into a more ominous and threating one "You arent getting out of here, and i dont care if you have the reputation of a planet murderer... I'll give you one last chance, before you drop your tough act.... and instead... act patiently like the others.... Or doom will soon fall upon you" If it isnt now... it will be later.

 

[Gabe]

Taiga instinctively reached his rapier, under the kimono. The place was foreign, more strange than the warp stations of the Faceless Order. Glowing panels were scattered around, and contrary to Taiga's suspicion, he could not feel a single spark of magic on them. "What is this place? I don't think I'm in Zephyr anymore, this I can be sure." Taiga warily holstered the rapier, when a man rushed past him, startling him. "...this is a high danger alert, everyone should..." Taiga tried to stop the man, but he was long gone. "What is going on? Where am I? Okay, sitting around in this place isn't going to help, and I'm sure that I will run faster while in fox form." Taiga closed his eyes, concentrating for a second, then chanted a small spell, when his form changed to his fox appearance, along with his equipment. Now, let's sort this out before I get ambushed. Taiga thought before rushing to where the man went.

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Elizabeth sighs. "Great. Really great. Just fantastic. Exactly what I needed. Did I fall asleep, Mak? Is this another lesson?"





Mak'bael shakes its head. Well, one of them. At the moment he seems to have turned into a plush hydra. "No, Lizzie! I'd have told you!"





Elizabeth sighs, before approaching the shack and knocking on the door. "Hello? Anyone? Where the hell am I?"





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


Epatus frowns before moving to point his axe directly at Mary. "I'm afraid that's just not going to happen. Let the dragon go and maybe I'll let you escape with your life. Maybe."

 

[Lily Moriya]

( @Neow46 @Maurj @Bluesunnyday ) Epatus, G.A.R.Y, Anna:


Mary grins, revealing a toothed grin full of razor sharp teeth.


She opens her palms, in which materializes a couple of pitch black rapiers. A scarlet mist begins to come off of Mary’s form, filling the room with the scent of blood. “I’m feeling gracious today. Let us see if you four can stand against me.” She steps backwards, allowing more people to walk onto the platform. This also allows the dragon to crawl away from Mary.


Lily could be seen pulling off a panel from the wall and messing around with the inner wiring. A hole leading somewhere else into the lab opens up under the dragon, taking it and closing once again.


( @Bluesunnyday @Thorn of Discord ) Elizabeth & Mak’bael, Melpomene:


As Melpomene inspects the hole in the wall, she hears a loud knocking and a voice from a doorway leading outside. It seems like this person is just as confused as you are.


Elizabeth gets an unsettling feeling from the rift in the sky, or perhaps that’s just a normal thing from Mak’bael. In any case, it begins to get dark outside as nighttime approaches.


( @Raizel ) Taiga:


The man, while yelling to everyone something about a red lady while running past, made his way to a large room full of strange soldiers. They pay no mind to any sort of odd fox, and instead begin to suit up in light, black armor.


The man explains the situation in a hurry. “The quantum retrieval machine in the upper labs grabbed a bunch of individuals. I was told that one of them is a potential danger and that we need you all to come help.”


A much taller, hulking man walks forwards. “Thank you very much, we will take it from here.” He grabs a greatsword, walking out of the room whilst being followed by the soldiers. They proceed down the halls towards their mission.

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Epatus grins back. It's obvious there won't be any peaceful way to resolve this... Perfect.


"You're going to regret this decision."





Shadows begin to ooze towards Epatus from the corners of the room. The air noticeably chills around him, feeling more like winter than the inside of a laboratory. As the shadows climb across his body, his shirt begins expanding, becoming a robe. As a hood extends over his face, the only visible part of him is the two glowing points of his eyes.


"Do you know who you're dealing with?"





Epatus' axe wavers, and the bloody guillotine becomes two scythe blades, poking out from opposite sides of the scythe, resembling a rather lethal pickaxe.


"You're not leaving this room alive, mortal!"





With speed unbecoming of his suddenly larger frame, Epatus swings directly for Mary's neck.

 

[Gabe]

"W-what? Quantum retrieval machine? Hey, weird robed man, care to help?" Taiga stopped in front of the people around, still in fox form. "Hey, can someone please help me? I was in the Inn at Stormport, and suddenly I awoke in this place, I don't know where am I!" Taiga snarled, distraught by the situation. "What's a quantum retrieval machine? What is this place? Am I still in Zephyr? WHAT IS GOING ON?" Taiga bombarded the strange men with questions, end expected all of them answered at the same time. He was still dazed because of the sudden warp, and being confused is what a kitsune hates the most.

 

[Thorn of Discord]

-A Collaboration between Melpomene and Elizabeth / Mak'bael-


"Eep!" Melpomene jumped at the rap on the door. After making sure her mane was presentable, she opened the door far enough to poke her head through. "Hello there....er, Mademoiselle?" Elizabeth stares at the brightly colored pony's head, then turns to empty space beside her. "You're shitting me, Mak."


"You are fucking shitting me, Mak. You said this wasn't a lesson."


Elizabeth turns back to Melpomene. "Okay, what're you gonna teach me today? Where gelatin comes from? The wonders of the glue factory? The carnivorous horses of Fwak'deplas?"


Melpomene blinked at the person before her and at this unseen Mak person "Lessons...? No I'm just....here....uh, come in, will you?" Melpomene swung the door wide.


For the briefest of moments, the stuffed bear becomes something different, a large grizzly covered in bleeding wounds, gouged out eyes oozing black fluid, staring directly at Melpomene. "I've never seen you before in my life, miss...?" Eyes wide, Melpomene backpedaled to the wall. "M-M-Mak I p-presume? Melp-Melpomene, ench-ch-chanté."


Mak'bael becomes a stuffed bear again. "Well, you sure are friendly! Nice to meet you!"


Elizabeth frowns. "Look, if this isn't a dream, then where the hell am I, and what the hell are you?"


Heart racing, Melpomene composed her self. For a second. Or several. "I am Mademoiselle Melpomene, a Vidame of Hooflock. And you?" She offered her hoof. Elizabeth looks down at the small horse, and tentatively shakes her hoof. "Elizabeth King."


"This is Mak'bael, Lord of Innocence." She points her thumb at Mak, who at this moment seems to be humming to himself. "Is this your place?" Elizabeth asks, looking around. "Doesn't seem like it, but it never hurts to ask..."


"No, this.....I'm not familiar with....here..." Melpomene bit her lip, bothered.


Elizabeth frowns. "Well, that's just fantastic. Great, really great."


"We're both here, with no idea what's going on. And Mak'bael sure isn't being helpful."


Mak looks over at Elizabeth and Melpomene, frowning... somehow. "Look, I'm sorry, but there's only so much I can do, Lizzie!" Melpomene shook her head, but kept glancing at Elizabeth. "Now now, it doesn't befit a lady to panic, or to squabble."


Elizabeth glares down at Melpomene. "Fine, whatever. Do you know where we could potentially do some investigating? Look around, "see the sights" and whatnot?" Putting a hoof through her mane, Melpomene cleared her throat. "Well, through this wall here is a hallway worth...I'm sorry, is your ensemble some sort of trend where your from?" Elizabeth frowns, looking down at her sweater and pants. "Do you have a problem with my outfit?"





"No no, it has a pleasant....casual look, but its coloring rather clashes...." Elizabeth sighs. "Whatever, I don't care, it was my day off and I was just planning on hanging out around the house."


"So, a hallway? Shall we investigate?"


"Yes, let's investigate!" Melpomene stepped through the hole, but stopped mid-step. "Er, are you versed in any kind of combat?" Elizabeth frowns. "Sorry, left my gun at home. Mak should be able to protect us though." Mak flies through the door, this time apparently in the form of a butterfly with quilted wings. "Yeah! I'll protect Elizabeth with my life!" Elizabeth coughs politely. "And our friend Melpomene, right?" Mak grins. "Yeah, sure, whatever you say, Lizzie!" Melpomene grinned, and bowed in thanks, following Mak. "So tell me dear, what is the fashion like where you're from?"


(SO MUCH COLOR)

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Elizabeth shrugs. "I honestly couldn't tell you. Stuff like that changes every week, it feels like."





Mak'bael switches forms again as they walk, this time becoming something akin to a giant deer puppet. He gambols in front of them, a grin plastered across his stitched face. "Oh wow! We're having an adventure! An actual adventure!!!"





He turns back to Melpomene, and his form flickers again. A ten-legged beast stares at her, eyes practically falling out of too-wide sockets. The flesh is completely peeled away from its muzzle, forcing it into a constant smile. Maggots crawl across rotted skin, and as it speaks, the audible sound of teeth clacking together fills the room."Aren't you excited, new friend?"

 

[Thorn of Discord]

This time, Melpomene didn't have the chance to suppress the urge to throw up. Which she promptly did. Right on the floor.


"Oh, now look what you've done!" She spat wiping her muzzle.

 

[Bluesunnyday]

Mak'bael frowns, and suddenly he's back to his plush deer form. "Oh no! Are you sick? Do you have a fever?"





Elizabeth moves to stand between Mak'bael and Melpomene. "Uh, Mak? Why don't I stand in the middle?"





She kneels beside Melpomene and frowns. "I think you scared her. Were you Flickering?"





Mak'bael frowns, and then suddenly disappears. However, his voice is still audible. "Oh! I think I was! I'm sorry!"





Elizabeth sighs. "Sorry, Melpo, it happens. He's... not that great at controlling his forms. He doesn't mean to do it, honest."





Suddenly, a pack of juice boxes pops into existence next to Melpomene. "I got you juice, friend! It's orange juice! Maybe you'll feel better!"
