Realistic or Modern CX-431: Main Thread (Private RP)

[Roxirin]

Aneirin parted his lips in a fanged grin at Claire, standing up and readjusting his scarf. "There is always a role call. They will notice." 


Desta chortled quietly and got up, running her hands through her mane and stretching. "Well, see ya'll at training! Gotta stock up on ammo first though." She shot a glance at Claire before glitching back into her pocket dimension, scouring the floor for belts of machine gun ammunition. 


Kim was quiet for a while, staring off into the tunnel they were sitting in, wondering what could be down there. Eventually, she decided to act on her curiosity, and stood up. "I'm uh... just gonna go check out this tunnel. I want to see what's down there." She explained, starting off into the darkness, tail waving.

 

[Kalsagnia]

Napoleon snorted.


"Hey", he said, "at least the robot isn't twice the size of you! If anyone should want to skip training, it's me!"


He waved to Desta and finished off his breakfast, then ran his paws through his mane to make it even fluffier. Maybe if he pulled his cutest face at the staff they'd let him skip training today...

 

[Matt Kulex (Alex T.)]

Claire just laid her head on the table remembering the roll call and sighed "Oh...right..." she then took notice of Desta's quick glance and raised her head but her attention went to Napoleon as soon as he spoke up. Though it's true that the odds of fighting opponents that were Napoleon's size was extremely unlikely, she could imagine the frustration of fighting something twice her size everyday but then thought of something "Wait...but you're super strong right? Couldn't you just fling the robot around regardless of it's size?" Claire wasn't trying to belittle Napoleon's complaint as she had no right to, but she had seen him perform some rather impressive feats of strength and figured a 6 foot training bot wouldn't seem that big of a deal for him

Alex was staying vigilant with both his eyes and ears both wide open and carefully listening. This changed though the instant Kim stood up and started to head into the tunnel "Wait up, you're not going alone." Alex quickly stood up and followed after Kim, not wanting to be to far away from her in case she ran into trouble. Tom stirred awake at this moment and looked around, still groggy and half asleep. He looked to where Kim and Alex should have been and saw they weren't there and gave a small chuckle "You sly fox." figuring he'd be doing his brother a "favor", Tom got up and woke up the best he could and took over the watch until he heard the two return.

 

[Kalsagnia]

Napoleon shrugged.


"I could", he agreed, nodding, "but last time I threw it too hard and totally smashed the thing. The staff weren't too pleased about that, let me tell ya!"


He blanched slightly as he remembered the scene. He'd flung the robot against the wall and it had crumpled like a soda can. Pieces of machinery and wiring had gone everywhere and the repairs had been costly. Napoleon had received quite the royal chewing out for that.

 

[Roxirin]

Aneirin stood, having finished his meal, nodding to what Napoleon had said. He sometimes wished that his 'power' was more of an actual power, as opposed to just him having wings and being able to use them, but he recognised the advantage flight gave him and wasn't about to  complain. "Come, then. Aneirin shall not be late." 


Kim, as she walked, fell into step with Alex, offering him a warm smile. "So... What do you think's out there? You know....." She gestured, frowning a little as she attempted to articulate what she meant. "Does this place just go on forever?" Being 'final prototypes', the anthros here were never intended to leave the facility, thus they had no true concept of 'outside', except Desta (partially), who understood that there could be other places besides this one. 


(Sorry for the long wait, guys! ^^' )

 

[Matt Kulex (Alex T.)]

((It's fine, though admittedly I was kind of worried for a bit there. Just glad you came back.))


Claire let out a small hum when Napoleon mentioned the scolding he received, now remembering it "Yeah, guess they didn't expect you to be so strong. Of course the fact they yelled at you for something like that is dumb. I heard Dr. Mazak in turn scolded the training staff for that though." Claire eventually stood up and accepted the fact she wasn't going to weasel her way out of training today "I better go put on the rest of my uniform then. I'll meet you guys at the training hall." with that she left for her room to get the rest of her clothes

Alex returned the smile as he caught up with Kim, but then looked deep in thought when Kim posed her question "Hmm...I'm not sure...but there's has to be something right?" Alex then remembered his dream before waking up in the lab. The grassy hill, the blue sky and bright sun. All things that clearly weren't part of this facility...yet they were so perfectly clear in his head like someone intentionally put that image in his head "No...there's definitely something more beyond this place. We just have to find a way out." With that though Alex suddenly heard a strange noise and paused after quickly grabbing Kim's arm to stop "Hold up." it sounded like footsteps, but loud, heavy metallic footsteps. It took him a moment to realize that they were coming from outside the vent, but it still left him rather tense "It sounds like they got something more than just the guards looking for us."

 

[Kalsagnia]

Napoleon looked rather pleased to hear that.


"Good, I should hope he did!" He exclaimed. "Next time they have a go at me I'll throw them too hard!"


He hopped down from his chair and shot a grin at Aneirin.


"Right behind ya, buddy", he said, following his friend out of the room.

(I DIDNT GET THE NOTIFICATIONS THAT YOU GUYS HAD REPLIED >:| )


Kim froze, ears rotating, tail flicking nervously, trying to pinpoint the sound. She glanced at Alex, concern on her face. "I-I.... uh..." she didn't want to say she was scared, but she did fear for all their wellbeings. She just wanted to make it out of this place (if that was even possible). The humans weren't nice, she wanted somewhere with no boundaries, no metal walls and locked doors. Somewhere she could run freely. 


Aneirin reached the training room shortly after Rolf, not reacting as Desta glitched into the room, arms full of belts of ammo. She dropped them on them floor, glitched away, and then came back wielding her 'baby': a full-sized M-123  minigun, apparently previously helicopter-mounted until Desta had ripped it from its hinges, bolting two handles onto the top for grip. She loaded a belt into it and unclipped the safety, at which Aneirin took a step to the side. "This one should be careful. It fires at 250 rounds a second..." He motioned to her gun, at which she stuck her tongue out at him. "You better get out the way then, lizard." Aneirin gave a weary sigh and went to the artillery to retrieve his own weapon, a sleek M-107 sniper rifle. The gun's surface gleamed a metallic black in the low light, polished to perfection by Aneirin himself the previous day. 

 

[Matt Kulex (Alex T.)]

((I am one of the worst procrastinators ever...or am I one of the best?))


Alex continued to stand perfectly still and quiet as the sounds of the strange footsteps grew farther away until they could no longer be heard and he let out a relieved sigh "It's moving on." Alex looked over to Kim and saw that she seemed somewhat scared "Hmm...maybe we should turn back for now. After hearing that, I don't feel like leaving the group unattended for to long." Alex looked back towards where the rest of the group were but waited to see what Kim wanted to do.

Rolf was already at the firing range armed with a modified Taurus Model 44 magnum. He fired of it's eight rounds in rapid succession, the recoil of the gun barely noticeable due to his expert control, hitting all the vital parts on training bot. He looked over to see the arrival of his comrades and with a quick spin of his gun, put it back into his holster and walked over to the group "You guys sure took your sweet time." he joked then looked over to Desta's mini-gun "Geez Desta, if I didn't know any better I'd say you were over compensating for something." he poked fun at the hyena as a slightly more clothed Claire entered the training facility "So, what's on the schedule today so I can begin my silent pre-workout complaining." Claire's bored tone of voice made that line funnier to Rolf than it should have been as he forced back a chuckle "Well, nothing yet. I'm told Dr. Mazak is coming down though to oversee us today."

 

[Kalsagnia]

(YO GUESS WHO TOTALLY FORGOT THIS RP WAS A THING I'M SO SORRY)


Napoleon followed everyone to the training room and sighed. He fiddled with the buttons in his coat for a moment before deciding to leave it on after all and set about bench pressing to keep his strength up. Bench pressing, that is, with an actual bench of course.

Gen was lying on his back, fast asleep and snoring loudly. He was leaning against Seth, who was curled up with a smile on his face and one long arm draped out his little buddy. Not that Gen would have approved of being described as such.
