Fandom Hunters of the Throne

[PopcornPie]

"Hey. Hey." Lucky snapped mildly. "I'm three years old, sure, but me springs aren't windin' down yet." He tried to hop in place, only to net the same result. This time, however, he managed to lift himself, though he still couldn't seem to keep his weight on his feet alone.

"Woah, you really do?" Megumin gasped. "Um...Gosh, I've never tried this before, just warning you." She pointed her staff at the ground, her grip flunctuating. She knew better than anyone else how much damage Explosion could do, even if she couldn't dare use its full power. It would leave them scorched at best, and at worst, the others would come "home" to a landscape of ash.

"Kazuma...What would he want?" Kazuma would probably be halfway there on foot by now. He wouldn't want her to do this. But, damn it all, this was important! If she died...She would at least be able to say that she tried?

"Are you sure you don't want to stop me?...Okay..." Her knees began to jiggle, while her lip was firmly held in her teeth. Once more did she make sure her hat and cape were on tight. She could hear everyone yelling at her to not do this, as though there was another option. And of course she doubted that there wasn't one. Motivation, she needed motivation...

"HAHAHA!" Ribcage cackled in her head. "You better hurry up, before I make myself a saddle out of Natasha, a violin case out of Julia, a zoo attraction out of Sora, and, um...Well, my point is, I'm gonna hurt all your friends!" It was working! Megumin's frightened expression slowly melted off, revealing a hidden war face. "Because I'm a big, fat asshole!" Shouted Ribcage.

Shutting her eyes tight, she let heat course all through her body. The good old Explosion from the good old days was struggling to climb back into view. She could feel her vision and thought process beginning to glitch. She couldn't, she wouldn't, let it stop her!

"All right, I think I'm prepared. If I'm paralyzed when we land, just shake me or something, okay? Just give me a good thwack on my head. Now, then. Sorry about this, Mewtwo, but I know I've got this!"

"EEEEEEEEEEEXXXX...PLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSIIIIIOOOOONNNNNNNNNNN!" Like she had never, ever done it before, Megumin let the gorgeous word flow from the depths of her chest and lungs. She made sure it was clear. She made sure it rang in the desert air. Why, there were even a couple tears running down her cheeks as she finally had her chance to rekindle her beautiful spell!

Just as intended, Explosion launched the archwizard and her mutant companion high into the air, soaring across the path the others left, trailing smoke and embers. The metal platform kept them from being incinerated, but it did glow brightly from the heat. It was easily enough power to rocket them to where they needed to be...But would they actually land with the extraction team, as Megumin wished?

CocoaMarshmallow Everyone else...Who wants Meg to land next to them?

 

[Benedict Cucumberpatch]

After witnessing Kendall and and tour guide Zane assault the lobby workers at the resort, who were quite drunk, Benedict was given an order to finally check in to his room
“Ah! If you need me....I’ll be in my room....Josh! Carry me....and my bags....and Michigan“
Benedict commanded in his head as Josh picked them all up and dropped them in front of the closest shack. Benedict inspected it to the tiniest molecule....he examined its genetic structure and very fabric
“This....is not my room.“
Benedict and the gang would repeatedly visit several houses, and Benedict would inspect them all until...finally, they found the one.
“Ah....Josh, head in there and....“convince” the staff to work the night shift“
Benedict asked calmly as he handed Josh a shotgun. Josh would then walk in.....it seemed like hours....there were a few honks from time to time, and a lot of grunts and bangs....but finally...the door opened.
Benedict would walk in to see a normal inside of a shack...but with a few Josh modifications....luxury bedsheets..the tea set....Benedicts portable shower disco surprise bundle....it was all there, along with a line of three bandits all in suits ready to follow Benedicts command, unlike the dead ones on the floor.
“Ah! This is a fine room....oh...I know exactly what you’re thinking...and yes, I do know how to be swinging fresh from time to time unlike the other guests.“
Benedict would then proceed to climb into bed, and snap at one of the bandits
“Ah! You! Your new name is....Obadiah...Obadiah! Feed Michigan for me.“
“Uh.....um“
Obadiah would say as he saw one of his own....in a collar being treated like a dog.
“W-well I don’t know if he likes that Sir“
“Ah...you won’t like me if you don’t feed him Obadiah...“
“Very well Sir“
As Obadiah fed Michigan, Benedict would then speak telepathically to the others
“Ah...I checked into my room, but there is no sign of Mister...Prime Rib, perhaps he’s busy...after all he is the manager....ah! Goodnight.“
Benedict would say before snapping at Josh
“Ah....time for my...bedtime story...make it fast, I need to enter the dream realm post haste.“

Ryuji Kazan
​

While Ryuji watched his creations give off their bursts of sound and color, he could make out explosions coming from inside and outside the stronghold, too. He saw Minako summon another creature, this time some sort of armored knight which gave off explosions, as well as the Canadian psycho freak from earlier pulling a rocket launcher from (quite possibly) out of his ass and firing it into the stronghold. "I'm unsure if what I did suddenly inspired everyone to start making everything explode, but... I can't say I'm against it." He stated with a clearing of his throat as he re-assumed control over his emotions after his apparent loss of stoicism earlier.

As Salvador's Technical passed by, Ryuji had a plan, and pulled a Magnesium Cup from out of his coat. "Magnesium. Number 12 in the Periodic Table, Atomic Mass of roughly 24.3 AMU's, and one helluva bright light show when it gets ignited. Now, do I have any volunteers, any volunteers at all...?" He mused, before his eyes fell upon a hulking figure with a bucket-shaped helmet and two guns, perhaps not unlike Salvador.

"Hey, guy in red, don't go! Goliath just want to play tag with guns!" The Goliath then shot at Ryuji a couple of times, though thankfully the bullets missed. "Aww, why you not dead? Guy in red is cheating!"
​

"Hey, Muscles! You wanna play? Catch these." Ryuji called to the Goliath, lighting and tossing a Magnesium Cup at them, which was promptly caught in their large hands.

"Yay, Goliath caught little hissing cup! Goliath is such good-" The figure's almost childlike expression of joy suddenly turned to cries of pain as the cup's Magnesium began to burn and emit a blinding white light. "HOT! HOT! HOT! GOLIATH'S EYES ARE BECOMING BACON!"

Then, from the brawl that was occurring inside Steele's Holdout, a rather large piece of debris flew towards the Goliath...

...and struck their helmet straight off.

Suddenly, the Goliath became filled with an uncontrollable rage as their skin reddened, their muscles began to swell, and their skull and spinal cord emerged from the base of their neck. "THAT'S IT! I'M GONNA RIP YOUR GODDAMN SPINE OUT AND USE IT LIKE A BENDY STRAW!" The Goliath bellowed as it began to give chase to Salvador's Technical.

Ryuji's expression turned completely deadpan as he aimed his rifle at the now-enraged Goliath. "You know... not once today did I ever wish to see a hulking, muscular man-child turn into a monster with his skull and spinal cord flopping all over the place like a limp hot dog. But, I suppose that's just not how the universe works, now is it?"

[TheElenaFisher]

sᴋʏᴇ, 𝖁𝖔𝖘𝖘, and ƶαɳε
____________________

After the whole situation got sorted and she got a grin from Venus, to which she replied with rolling her eyes, she followed the others. FL4K was right, if they didn't get a move on, their chances of going home was probably going to disappear and she doubt that they'd want that to happen. Well… maybe the hobo guy wanted their chance of going home to disappear and that insane rabbit earlier that mostly everyone tried to jump wanted that as well, they'd fit in on Pandora just fine.

She followed them, keeping a tight grip on her pistol and a look out in case any bandits tried to jump them. Once Zane spotted some of them and heard them notice something, the purple cat comment meaning they noticed at least someone, she stayed hidden. This was Zane fucking Flynt, he'd have a plan. Or some resemblance of a plan.

Really, sometimes he had a plan and sometimes he made one up on the spot, but really: hasn't anyone make plans up on the spot at some point in their lives?

Anyways, after Zane and one of their teammates took out the bandits coming around, she would be lying if she said she wasn't impressed with how fast that got resolved. They had a point, they couldn't have witnesses on this job. Well, they could, they'd just probably die later anyways.

Once people either went off on their own or split into groups, she was surprised that Zane called dibs on having her and Voss on his team. But, she couldn't deny that she was flattered that he chose her. 'Aw, you picked us? I'm flattered that you picked us. We've got this, after all it's a Siren, a Vault Hunter, and a pirate… captain, I wanna say? Feel free to correct me on that front, but either way, we have this. And if we don't, there's always the next shack. If we can't find him here, oh well, he's probably in the arena.' The Siren sure was confident in their ability to find dear ol' Ribcage, but if they didn't, she wouldn't be too disappointed.

With that, she followed the two with her pistol ready.

Voss readjusted his bone helmet by grabbing one of the two larger incisors of his headwear. It was heavy, to say the least, but it would easily prevent any headshots from landing on the sea captain’s poor head. As he spoke to Skye, he holstered his Jakob’s revolver in favor of his trusty sword. He felt like this would take out enemies quieter.

“At this point, I might as well be a pirate. I wander my home world’s oceans like one and I rob like one. I hate how it has ended up bein’, but if it walks like a duck and it quacks like one, it must be a duck. Yarg.” Then the pirate turned towards Zane. “I believe in us, ya know. If we managed to survive Skull Settlement, then this’ll be a piece of cake. Lead the way!”

Right, boyo! You two and I are gonna get along just fine, he smirks and creeps up to one of the houses. He peers through one of the windows cautiously, only to see a group of cowering Bandits with guns hiding in various spots: behind their fridge, under their couch and mattress, in the tattered cloth that could be considered drapes. He pulls back and glances at Voss and Skye.

“You think they’re gonna destroy this house too?”

“Hope not. We’ve got nothing to hide except a few rich guys’ corpses.”

“They had $200, Richard.”

“More than I’ve got!”

“BRING ME THE MEAT SACKS!”

Looks like they’re expectin’ us. We’re gonna need to enter together, guns blazin’, he tells the two. You ready?

Skye held her pistol, hiding underneath the windowsill, ready to jump through it. 'You know it.'

As for Voss, he took cover beside the entrance of the building. He nodded to the two while he raised his sword closer towards his chest. “I’ve always been ready.”

The drone on Zane’s wrists detaches itself and chirps to life. “Go get ‘em, fella,” he whispers to it. It then flies in through the window, and a bright flash accompanied by a somewhat loud bang can be seen and heard inside: a stun grenade. GOGOGOGO! Zane shouts excitedly as he jumps through the window and immediately begins clearing the room.

When Zane gave the signal to head in, she got out from underneath the windowsill and jumped through the window. Immediately, a bandit close to the window on the right side tried to punch her but since she noticed him due to being aware of her surroundings and having just gotten through the window, it would only be an attempt. She ducked underneath the punch in time and fired a bullet in his knee. Getting up, she took out the knife she had and stabbed him in the throat, firing a bullet at the bandit that tried to rush her on her left without looking.

Good thing she wasn't deaf on that side or dead in general, otherwise she probably would've never heard the footsteps.

There were two more she wanted to deal with before leaving the rest for the boys. Fortunately for her, they decided to be there in front of her.

"Nice of you to invite us in your house. Gotta say, the place is lovely."

"Wh- YOU JUST KILLED BOB! HE WAS WAITING FOR HIS FIFTH KID TO BE BORN! IT WAS GOING TO BE A BOY TOO, HIS FIRST SON!"

"You bitch, you also killed Kenny! WE WILL AVENGE KENNY, THE HOLY ONE!"

"A simple hello would've sufficed…"

Sighing, she activated Phaseswap and chose the one that mentioned someone named Bob and quickly hit the guy next to her with the butt of the rifle, cancelling it after the action. Not wasting any time, she rushed at them with her pistol and knife. The two tried to use their weapons like bats and hit her, but she slid underneath it and popped up behind the two. Waving at them once they turned back, they tried to punch her at the same time but she quickly ducked underneath the punches, taking this time to fire two bullets. One went into the left knee of the one mentioning Bob and the other went into the right knee of the one mentioning Kenny.

When they were stunned, she kicked the both of them in the face when she got back up and as they laid on the ground, she went to the both of them and stabbed them in the neck. They couldn't have witnesses after all, it'd screw them all over, so they couldn't be allowed to get back up.

Meanwhile, Voss immediately charged in once Zane gave the okay. His first target was the couch, where he spotted a bandit hiding beneath it. He leapt onto the couch and, without missing a beat, thrusted his sword down through the shoddy couch, impaling the bandit underneath. After striking a few more swift blows through the couch, Voss finally stood on top of the furniture, tipping it over and revealing the dying raider underneath. Behind the couch was another bandit, which Voss simply sliced their throat on the trip down. He kicked them onto the floor and moved on to his next opponent.

Two more bandits revealed themselves, one of which attempted to shoot at the sea captain. Just as before, Voss reared his skull helmet towards the bandits to defend himself. As a result, the bullet only left a measly dent on his helmet. Even worse for the shooter, Voss advanced towards them and headbutted them hard. This caused them to recoil backward and hit their friend. The sea captain impaled both of them before they could react, much to his amusement.

“Ha! Won’t ya look at that! I made a bandit shish kebab!”

He twisted his blade before drawing the weapon out, then he sliced the shooter’s head off in one fell swoop. Their body fell onto the floor alongside their head, and the second bandit that was impaled fell onto their knees with a terrified look on their face.

“Hrk! ...Y-you… You fucking monster…! You killed...”

“Eh. It’s all for a greater good!” Voss replied as he prepared to lop his head off, too. However, Voss was interrupted when another bandit snuck up behind him and grabbed him, throwing him through the air a few feet. Voss fell hard, but he stood quickly enough to use his sword to parry an attempted baseball attack. When the opportunity arose, Voss managed to impale his attacker too. The bandit grabbed the sword from him and yanked it out of his body, much to Voss’ surprise.

“AHAH! I’M GONNA SLICE YOU INTO A MILLION PIECES, CAPTAIN HOOK!!.”

“Well done! That probably hurt a lot, but ya definitely would have the upper hand! Except-”

Voss would unholster his gun and shoot the bandit point blank, making them instantly go limp. He walked over to his corpse and retrieved his sword, when he noticed the one bandit from earlier, still alive. “Oh! I almost forgot.” The sea captain shot the surviving bandit, who was attempting to crawl away.

Zane looks around at the cleanup detail. That was feckin’ awesome! Brings me back to me old days. Maybe we should all go to a bar together once we capture that shitehead. Tab’s on me! He glances around at the various Bandits one last time, putting a bullet in each one’s head just to ensure they’ve been killed. Doesn’t look like that Ribcage fella’s here. How’s yer’ search goin’, Kendall?

Fruitless. Julia hasn’t found anything yet… wait, what?

What? Somethin’ happen? Spit it out, boyo!

You’ve gotta be kidding…

Lilith and Kirby

Kirby tried to reassure Dani but she flew off to find Ribcage, he tried to chase after her but she was too fast and Kirby tripped and fell on the ground. Kirby got up, unequipped his ability and tried to get everyone's attention, however no one seemed to take notice of him calling for help so Kirby had no other choice but to confront Lilith herself. He slowly walked over to the building Lilith was in and opened the door a tad bit, Lilith didn't say anything and sat there still disappointed for what she did, Kirby enters the room and asked if she was okay. "Yeah sure, never better." She said in sad sarcastic tone. Kirby knew she was lying so he tries comforting her but Lilith gets up looking annoyed. "Look I don't want to do anything or help anyone because I'm either going to annoy them or get them hurt in some way so could you please leave me alone, I'll only make things worse for everyone anyway." Kirby starts to looks sad and leaves not really knowing what to do while Lilith sat back down still in her current state, for a last effort he went to Julia and told her what was going on.

Oh, no! Megumin overshot her mark, and now she and Fish are both stuck on Mars!

...Nah, just kidding.

They might as well have passed through outer space, though, with how fast and how hot they were coming in. Megumin's shriek pierced the air like a jet engine, with her singed hat fluttering behind her, and her cape desperately trying to serve as a parachute. She hit the ground with an enormous cloud of sand, rolling like a log while also bouncing like a tennis ball. It was actually a little funny to watch.

What wasn't funny to watch, however, was the result. Just as Megumin anticipated, the Explosion made her brain short circuit. She flailed on the ground like a dying fly, kicking and thrashing rapidly. She blinked in and out of consciousness a good dozen times in half a minute, as though someone was flicking a light switch on and off in her brain. The entire time, the poor thing moaned and shrieked, barely able to let out sound bites between choked breaths. "Fish! H-h-h-help!"

If Fish remembered what she told him, then all he would have to do, fortunately, was give her a good smack across the head. Anyone else's effort would probably do the trick, too.

Lilith

Lilith was sitting by herself when she heard...something, it sounded like someone calling out to her but Lilith didn't want to speak with anyone, something was encouraging her to see what it was though so she decided to check to see what it was. Turns out it was just Julia wondering if she was okay but Lilith obviously wasn't. "Oh it's just you, look I really don't want to talk right now I'm too busy with...things." Lilith said in a depressed tone.

"A what?"

Abbott looked up towards the sky as he began to hear screaming. When he protected his eyes from the sun using his hand, he managed to catch a glimpse of Megumin and fish flying through the sky before plummeting towards the ground ahead of the lookout team. The sailor grimaced at the sight of the impact.

"Oh, that's gotta hurt! We've gotta check on them!"

With that, Abbott ran towards the duo, leaving his guitar and camera behind. When he got close enough, he noticed Megumin convulsing on the dirt and, just as frighteningly, a large sea monster was nearby. Abbott didn't notice Fish at first, but once he did, he quickly recoiled in fear. He took out his shield device and activated in defense.

"AH! What is that thing?! Oh, are you okay, ma'am?? Uh, Natasha! A little help, please!" He kept an anxious eye on Fish, unsure of its intentions.

COLLAB POST WITH: jigglesworth as Captain Price, darkred as John Connor

Once again, Connor looked over his teammates on this mission. The strange small suited man was frustrating to deal with, but he had other things on his mind besides that. He looked at Fl4k with a sense of light trust. In a sense, he wasn’t too comfortable but he’d make due with the fact he worked with a big killer robot on the good side.

Captain Price, the British soldier he’d run into quite a few times but never got to know before he was on his way.

Both were on his team.

He kept his light plasma rifle on his back, choosing to use his new weapon as a last resort if he needed to.

Even John Connor couldn’t get over his stubborn “fear” of robot kind or could he?

He’d use that fear instead to kill off bandits.

He’d stand near a corner of a house and wait until it was safe before listening in to some bandits talk trying to determine if someone was nearby or not.

More likely to use what he was famous for back home, he’d go for hit and run guerilla tactics before going again.

FL4K stands by John Connor, though they're still unable to be seen. Inside the house, several Bandits can be heard cheering. “They’re bringin’ out the bastards, finally! Took ‘em long enough!” one says.

There is a large presence of Bandits in this house. Ribcage may be here. Enter through the door.

Rog’. Stack up. Price stood on one side of the door, rifle down, waiting for the breach.

Connor frowned and busted down the door quickly grabbing onto his plasma weapon and frowned “How we know which one’s Ribcage? Is he a giveaway in appearance or does he look like everyone else in here?”

Shots ring out from beside John Connor as an invisible FL4K starts firing at the Bandits, killing a few of them. Bullet wounds appear in each seemingly without explanation- at least, from their point of view, and they begin to freak out. Ribcage is a Bandit with eight arms. He will be obvious among the rest. Kill the others.

Price soon appeared on Connor’s other side, raising his rifle to drop two scrambling bandits. One swift movement. The barrel of his L119A1 locked onto the leftmost bandit, and with a pull of the trigger a round quickly embedded itself in his chest. As soon as the trigger was pulled, the barrel shifted to the next target; another pull of the trigger would drop him to the floor.

“Right, We’ll be looking for a bandit with eight arms.”

John lifted up his plasma gun and began to shoot pressurized hot plasma at the bandits frowning when they screamed, exploding from impact. He winced only a second before going back to shooting another bandit and doing the same.

It brought him back to a worse time, a time where he had a group of soldiers out on the field and there were waves of terminators out there and his men and women were around him. Others died in plasma fire, dying from hot plasma holes in their bodies. It was rough and they had to pull back. He wouldn’t let this team go through that same experience.

Soon, the entire room of Bandits has been cleared. The reason for their excitement is now visible: a live feed of the events undertaken in the arena is being broadcasted on a television. They had not been expecting visitors, that’s for sure.

There is hesitance in your killing. Is something wrong? FL4K asks John.

John frowned “It’s complicated. I come from a world where we fry terminators for a living and my teams are all human, and mostly cyborg. It’s hard to explain.

“It’s like I’m killing humans in a sense that they are no longer human.”

Fucking moral feelings. They always seemed to hold him back in that sense. How would he tell his men and woman back home he’d killed fellow humans, better yet look them in the eyes and tell the soldiers he presided to order he was a liar and hypocrite.

Now it was a matter of life or death here and survival was all that counts. FL4k’s team vs the bandits who were no longer human.

He was now the very thing he tried to tell himself not to hate.

Death is beautiful. She patiently awaits those who do not call out to her with what they do, and takes by force those who kill, not for her, but for her own pleasure. These Bandits are not humans, yes; they are animals far more savage than any beast. What you have done to them does not compare with what they have done to others. FL4K uncloaks and aims their weapon towards the stairs. Proceed upstairs. I will be behind you.

Connor took a breath and nodded, going up the stairs. Price followed just behind him, moving at a steady pace. They held back as more bandits would arrive at the scene. The two soldiers would check every room upstairs, Connor moving the plasma gun back and forth before moving onto the next room. “Clear so far, no bandits in the top two rooms, Fl4k, Captain Price.”

Copy that.

They would keep searching rooms until they found more bandits, “We got another bandit infestation here.”

I am here, FL4K says as they come up behind Connor. They cloak once more. I will take the right, you will take the left. On my signal.

A beat.

Now.

More silenced shots ring out, bullet holes appearing in the Bandits on the right side before they can even scream.

Plasma hit the Bandit on the left side, the bandit falling to the ground before even they got to scream.

Connor eyed Fl4k with a bit more confidence in his eyes, more willing to trust Fl4k with the group for the time being but he wasn’t going to say it right away.

Two silenced shots could be heard in a nearby room, followed by two thuds. Clear. Price calmly walked from the room, looking over to his two allies. He regrouped with them, admiring FL4K and Connor’s handiwork.

Connor ignored how big the house was but he kept going till he reached the last few rooms. “I still don’t see Ribcage. He must have made his appearance less obvious than we last thought.”

There’s a show going on right about now, yeah? If this bastard’s the head honcho, I’ll bet you he’s watching from a special spot of his. High up, somewhere he can see the arena well.

A reasonable idea. If true, that may complicate our mission. There will be a large amount of Bandits watching the events. A quiet infiltration may prove to be impossible. We will need to use one of our other plans… or, perhaps, we may need to… as Zane would put it, ‘do it the fun way.’

Taking the gloves off will certainly get their attention. If we have to, we’ll need to wait till we have eyes on. Don’t want to spook him.

“Right. You guys heard of the run and gun tactics. It’s what I did with the mostly human troops at home and picked off terminators one by one.”

Guerilla warfare? I’m familiar. Ambushes take too much time, though. We need a quick way to get to Ribcage, and something tells me fighting our way through is bound to slow us down. If we split up extraction, it could speed things up.

“Divide and Conquer” I like it, Captain. We’d have to split up into equal parts or not equal parts depending on the team.

Packs of predators must hunt their prey from every angle in order to ensure a kill. I approve of this plan.

Once we’ve got eyes on, and assuming he doesn’t see extraction coming, the more stealthy types can sneak Julia up to... Do whatever it is she does. Should things get nastier than we’d prefer, we’ll always have those Buzzards coming in to get Ribcage out of here.

Understood. Remember: these Buzzards will only seat two passengers along with the pilot. One of us must be Ribcage’s escort. They will also be flown by a Bandit gang forcefully allied with the Raiders. If we must intimidate them to ensure their cooperation, do so.

“We need to choose someone who wants to escort the “package” or Ribcage.

Rog’, we’ll make do with what we’ve got. Someone who isn’t afraid to put a gun to a pilot’s head would work. I can do that, if it comes to it.

“Right, go ahead, Captain.”

Your planning skills are… impressive, FL4K compliments the two. However, we must move fast to execute this plan. The robot begins moving back towards the front door, shooting every dead Bandit they see in the head. Come. My Rakks will be the eyes that find Ribcage. They exit the house, looking up to the sky. Go, Rakks! Find me the one with eight arms!

The winged creatures that FL4K had sent out before silently fly over to the arena and circle a few hundred feet above the top.

Price followed FL4K out of the house, satisfied with the trio’s professionalism in that clearing. He watched the Rakks fly up, giving a smirk. Well, that’s bloody useful. Any other tricks up those sleeves of yours?

None but the help of the ones I run with. And perhaps some knowledge of biological human weak points in case questioning is needed, FL4K adds.

Connor placed the binoculars away “Weaknesses of a human?

You will know when you see it.

“Right. I’ll look for it when it’s needed.”

As much as I’d enjoy discussing interrogation techniques with you gents, we should get moving. Got eyes on Ribcage, FL4K?

The three flying creatures return as if on cue, descending and flapping their wings, making quiet screech sounds as if explaining the situation to FL4K.

It appears he is the one hosting tonight’s event. Odd… our reconnaissance teams did not warn about this. He looks to the others. He is situated in the announcer’s booth at the top row of the bleachers. The room is guarded by several other Bandits. He will not be easy to capture.

And once we make ourselves known, the whole arena will come down on top of us. If we can get Julia near him without getting spotted, we can avoid that. Is there any ventilation system? She could be small enough to fit in there.

None. Their ventilation systems are purely… natural.

Bloody hell. Might have to do this the hard way, then. Swing around up top, breach the announcer’s booth, then? Quietly as we can.

That will suffice. My cloaking technology should allow me to get close. For you, perhaps we will need a larger distraction.

Larger than what they got out there? What did you have in mind? Rigging something to blow, I imagine.

FL4K glances at the distraction team. With all that chaos, one would be surprised how the Bandits in the arena haven’t dropped what they’re doing to defend themselves yet.

We will get their attention by bringing our distraction right to their arena. If they wish to see a show, they will get one.

What are you suggesting?

For our Technicals to crash right through their walls and join the events. It will be risky, but it will be our best shot of getting to Ribcage.

Not half bad, best we’ve got.

Indeed. Let’s ‘burn this bitch down.’ Did I use that one right?

On the dot, mate.

Just barely over the ringing of her ears and the buzzing from her nervous system going absolutely insane, she could hear somebody asking her if she was alright. N-n-not reall-l-l-ly!" Megumin whined, her voice faltering as if she were being electrocuted. She blacked out, then blacked back in, as if nothing happened. The flailing made her joints sore, but it was nothing compared to the unholy mixture of a headache and a fever. Then she list the ability to speak, simply staring at the sky with a little drool coming down her cheek. The seizure actually wound down, with occasional, involuntary kicks and twitches. "Arbababa...Expababa..." She tried again to speak, but could only flap her jaw. Any attempts at getting up simply caused more flailing.

With an unexpected turn of events, Kintaros had began to be worshipped by some of the Nomads as the Benevolent Axe Wielder, Psycho of Skull Settlement. Feeling a bit proud of himself, he cricked his next with a snort.

"Heh, it seems I had made you all cry." Kintaros proclaims as he approached his cult. "Now, my loyal followers, hear me! Rise and bring me every single one of your comrades who had fled inside as well as the one who is called Ribcage alive to me!" He demanded, flinging his hand forward "Slaughter those who may get in your way, spare those who believe the name of the mighty Den-O!" He proclaimed, following through with the notion of his worship.

His followers raised their heads and cheered, standing up and turning against their former comrades, shooting them as they went back in the building to look for Ribcage and the ones who got back inside.

"Hm hm hm...A sound development indeed." Kintaros cricked his neck once more, letting out a chuckle.

"Aren't...Aren't we supposed to stop them from going back in?" Minako asked as she got to Kintaros, seeing all that has transpired.

". . ." Kintaros fell silent, "Oh no."

 

[Ineptitude]

"Excuseme." Shaw made an appearance, looking like a crazed murderer with the blood staining her suit, axe and helmet. She frantically patted down her uniform, as though looking for something, before triumphantly pulling out a vial filled with a dark blue liquid—courtesy of Myrrh before she was pulled into this mess. It was an extremely bitter but incredibly effective remedy, so she nonetheless coaxed the young caster into swallowing the medicine.

The muscles in Megumin's throat were tortured by the task, but the medicine worked quickly as soon as it was inside her stomach. It zipped all around the veins, coaxed the muscles, relaxed her nerves in turn, and allowed them to send messages to the brain telling it that everything was okay. Megumin would finally revert to normal, her sputters slowly changing back into normal breaths.

"Thank you!" The archwizard beamed, wagging an invisible tail at Shaw. "That was probably a safer solution than what I h-ha..." Her eyes bounced up and down, with both her forehead and nose wrinkling. Why, her heroine was covered in blood! "You must have come from such a difficult battle! I knew I was needed!" A determined smile stretched across her face upon recognizing Natasha. "I knew the risk, but of course I would take a risk for friends!" She poked her thumb into her chest. "I am here now, Ribcage! You better watch out!...So, where is this battle?" She leaned forward, pressing her hand to her forehead. "Oh, yeah, telepathy!..."

It gave her head a residual ache, but she managed to concentrate. "I am here now! Where are you? How many survivors? Is Sora okay?! Oh, and did Price see me?"

Zane exits the building he, Skye, and Voss had just cleared, his pistol holstered at his hip and carrying his rifle at the ready. They've got a few rocket launchers, but I think the ah... distraction team's got those handled, he tells Scott. Don't worry. Extraction shouldn't be too bumpy. Beats drivin' here! he internally chuckles. Aye, Kendall- did I hear you and the lass right?

Kendall tears away his eyes from Jacket, having witnessed the sociopath stomp a Bandit's face in with ease. He had automatically covered Lana's eyes when the kill had happened. Natasha made the right call... He then addresses Zane. Yeah, you did. Ribcage is... in the arena. Surrounded by a thousand Bandits.

Particularly, he is heavily guarded in the announcer's booth. Getting to him will prove difficult. As such, Price, John, and I have devised a plan.

Distraction team, you will be entering the arena. The only way to get their attention during one of their events... is to become the event yourself.

YES! This is where the FUN starts!

Phew... okay. We're gonna need a lot of help to get to Ribcage without them noticing us, so we'll need you guys to be as grand as possible. Nearl, you and the Technicals should lead us. Everyone, you're gonna crash in through the front gates, guns blazing. And Blast Radius? Do what you do best. The Typhlosion dips behind a dumpster, dragging Lana with him. Our goal's to get Ribcage close enough to Julia- or Julia close enough to Ribcage- to extract the info and get us out of dodge. OR we can get Dani close enough to steal Ribcage away without anyone noticing. Whatever the case, we need to get closer!

You speak intelligently, beast.

Outside, Salvador whips the Technical around so that the front is facing the charging Goliath.

"FINALLY! SHOOT TOGETHER WITH ME, FUNNY HAIR!"

Salvador shouts this at Ryuji before grabbing his two rifles by his lap and shooting them both at the Goliath, turning the Bandit to swiss cheese and leaving Ryuji to add whatever brutality he wants to the mix. After his mags run dry, Salvador drops his rifles back down and floors the Technical, running over whatever remains of the fat Bandit.

WE ARE ON OUR WAY TO GO KILL MORE THINGS!

From behind Nearl comes a Psycho wielding another buzzaxe. Grey suddenly comes up from the side and slices his weapon in two with his sword, then slashes his leg and kicks him in the face, sending the Psycho flat onto his back, unconscious.



"Nearl, right? You're really good with that warhammer. We should team up in there. I've got some ideas on what we could do," he tells her, pointing towards the arena.

"Hunker down back there!" Axton shouts at the passengers of his own Technical. "Lock and load, team!"

He smashes the gas and the truck goes speeding forward, right towards the entrance of the arena. Grey flips backwards and lands in the truck while it's moving, dragging Nearl by the arm with him.

Outta the way, everyone!

COLLAB POST WITH: thatguyinthestore (Joe Baker)

Inside the arena, things are starting to get heated; Outrunners circle and jump off ramps around the edge of the arena, the crowds cheering and throwing in sticks of dynamite as wild Skags and other beasts run amok inside. Bandits with guns follow them, fighting them in a small-scale war of animal versus man. Blood flies everywhere. Beasts whimper, men cry and scream. The crowd of Bandits roars in approval with every death they witness and throw more explosives into the ring like bouquets of roses.

Soon enough, there are more bodies lying limp on the ground than souls still alive. The last few Bullymongs approach the last few Bandits and tear them to shreds with their bare hands, tossing what remains of their corpses into the crowd. Bandits rush to collect the body parts as souvenirs.

“ALRIGHT, BOYS!” a loud Bandit announces from a small booth built out of scrap at the top of the bleachers, his voice coming out from various battered speakers sprinkled throughout the crowd. “LOOKS LIKE YOUR OWN BROTHERS’VE FAILED! SEND ‘EM SOME HATE BEYOND THE GRAAAAVE!”

The crowd jeers and boos.

“THAT WAS DISAPPOINTING! SO LET’S WIPE ‘EM DOWN AND BRING ‘EM BACK IN… LET’S GET TO THE MAIN EVENT OF THE NIGHT! ARE YOU READY TO BURN UP, BANDITS?!”

Everyone in the stadium screams.

“ARE YOU READY TO WITNESS KILLING LIKE YOU’VE NEVER SEEN KILLED BEFORE?!”

THEY SCREAM LOUDER.

“ARE YOU READY TO SEE THE BEST FIGHT OF YOUR LIFE, HOSTED BY NONE OTHER THAN OUR GLORIOUS LEADER, THE ONE WHO WILL BRING US BACK TO AN ERA OF PROSPERITY, THE ONE WHO WILL REVIVE THE CALYPSOS, AND LEAAAAAAAAAD US TO THE THRONE, THE ONE, THE ONLY, OUR SPECIAL GUEST OF THE NIGHT…”

“RIIIIIIIIIIIIIBCAGE!”

The crowd roars again in approval, headbutting each other, setting themselves on fire, and throwing themselves into the arena just to voice their excitement. A heavily scarred, freakishly tall Psycho with eight arms steps up and takes the microphone from the previous announcer, his face obscured under his mask like all the others.

“LET’S BRING OUT OUR FIGHTERS! SPRINKLE ‘EM WITH YOUR SKIN BITS!”

From out of one of the gates of the arena, a small army of Bandits lead two men out, both bound by their feet and wrists by layers of heavy chains.

“THEY MAY BE HERETICS, BUT THEY’RE BADASS HERETICS! AND WE WANNA SEE THEM KILL, AND THEN WE WANNA SEE THEM DIE! PUT YOUR BLADES TOGETHER FOR… KRIEG! AND! JOOOOOOOEEEEE BAKER!”


JOE BAKER
BAD. ASS.

Out of one of the shadowy corners of the arena, stepped an elderly man. He appeared to be either in his sixties or seventies. He was tall, standing roughly at six and a half feet. He was gruff and wide, looking as if he could bench an entire house if he really tried. One of the stand-out features of the man was a metal brace wrapped around his left arm. He stepped out, deadly silent as he glanced around the arena.

“This is the kinda bullshit these psychos are makin’ me do, huh?” He mused to himself quietly, before rolling his neck and shoulders, causing various sounds of his own bones popping and cracking to ring out, even over all the loud screaming and hollering and what have you.


KRIEG
Never leave a man with nothing left to lose.

The tall, muscular Psycho being escorted beside him with a slightly different looking mask glances over at the older man. “These Bandits live and breathe violence,” he says in a surprisingly level voice. “They took everything away from me… my one reason to not become like them.”

A feral snarl escapes him as he and Joe Baker are led out into the middle of the arena, causing several of the Bandits to back up in alarm. The tall Psycho manages to push down whatever had taken control of him.

“No… not yet. We need to tell them what they’ve done…”

With the Psycho back under control, the Bandits continue escorting the duo to the middle of the arena. The Bandits come out with another pair of microphones and hold them up to the two’s faces.

“GREETINGS, HERETICS!” Ribcage shouts from his perch tauntingly. “YOU HAVE KILLED MANY MORE OF US THAN WE HAVE KILLED OF YOU! MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS CRY OUT FOR YOUR DEATHS! WHAT SAY YOU IN YOUR DEFENSE?” They push one of the microphones towards Joe Baker.

“My defense is that you can rot in hell!” Joe snapped towards the microphone. “Y’all damn near killed me when I ended up here… you expect me to forgive that and walk away!?” He hissed angrily.

“LETTING YOURSELF DIE IS THE COMMON REACTION TO A HERD OF BANDITS! WHY NOT JOIN THE OTHER HERETICS WHO WANTED TO STAND IN OUR WAY? WHO CARES! YOU’LL DIE... TONIGHT!”

The crowd claps happily.

The other Bandits put their microphones up to the tall Psycho.

“I met a Siren years ago. She was strong… brave… the only one on this planet who understood what was right and what was wrong. She was the only thing that kept me from snapping…”

He lifts his head up, glaring daggers at Ribcage’s shelter. Hiding away in his booth, like an insignificant ant… the fellow Psycho detested it.



“You took her away from me. You and the Sirens you worshiped.”

“And now you want to bring them back.”

As he speaks, his voice begins to change; two voices overlapping each other, the same animalistic snarl slowly beginning to overtake the sane one.

“If you want to revive those murderers… if you want to taunt me with her death… if you want me… to kill you until I can’t kill anymore… if you want that beast… well, you want him…”

“YOU GOT HIM!”

With an angered cry, the Psycho pulls his chains apart like they’re made out of tissue, quickly smashing the chains on Joe’s wrists and feet in similar fashion. The startled Bandits run to stop them, but the taller Psycho rips the arm of a smaller one clean off, buzzaxe and all, and uses the weapon to split the head of another.

“YOU’RE NOTHING!”

The others rush Joe.

“Awe, hell yeah!” Joe exclaimed after the chains on his arms were broken. He smiled when bandits began rushing him, the arm with the brace beginning to charge back. A metallic, robot sound played.

“CHARGING.” A female voice said from the speaker of his arm brace. By the time one of the many unlucky bandits reached ‘ole Joe, the words, “FULLY CHARGED,” could be heard from that same female voice. The bandit was screaming something disgusting when it got on over to Joe, and as it did so, Joe released the punch and knocked him across the jaw, sending his entire jaw flying off from his face, leaving a gaping hole where it once was as blood fell out the top of his mouth.

“ANYONE ELSE WANT SOME!?” He shouted as more bandits proceeded to charge towards him. Joe’s fists were at the ready.

The muscular Psycho grabs another Bandit by the head after ripping his arms clean off. “LET’S PLAY CATCH THE HEAD, DIRTY MAN!” he screams gleefully, then proceeds to tear the Bandit’s head off and toss it towards Joe. He then charges at a Marauder, taking bullet after bullet to the chest but not stopping. He slashes the Bandit across his neck, decapitating him.

Joe smirked as the head was tossed over to him, nodding in response to the Psycho. Once it was tossed over, Joe began to reel back his cybernetically enhanced arm once more. The familiar female voice exclaimed the charging mechanisms again, and then once it was close enough…

SQUISH!!!

Joe took a huge swing towards the decapitated head, causing it to explode in a mess of blood and guts and brain matter.

“Damn! I think I missed!” Joe exclaimed sarcastically before letting out a loud laugh.

“GAHAHAHAHA!” Krieg happily howls right back as he kills two more Bandits by smashing their heads together, caving each one’s skull in.

“THE HERETICS FIGHT WELL, EH? SEND IN THE CREATUREEES!”

The bullymongs from before are released from other gates inside the arena. Krieg picks up another buzzaxe and raises them both high.

“I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE A FEAST!”

Meanwhile, up by the announcer booth, a Rakk suddenly swoops by. One of the Bandit guards inside raises their gun, but quickly lowers it upon realizing it’s already long gone.

“The hell? Since when did Rakks come this close to The Pit?”

“Eh, it’s probably mating season or something. Don’t worry about it.”

--

FL4K's pets suddenly get up and all face towards Steele's Holdout. Mr. Chew barks, Broodless, the bug-creature snaps her jaw. The sound of engines- and the retreating Technical- has drawn their attention.

A metallic barking comes from behind. Shredder, the robotic wolf, yaps and yaps as Megumin suddenly comes flying down with Fish on her back. The friendly Mutant gets off her back and dusts himself and his guitar off. The creature then stares at Shredder for a moment, and the wolf back, a tense silence persisting. Fish then glances at Natasha, Abbott, and Elizabeth. "FL'ÄÖ TH'KHUN Ö," he says and points at the stronghold, drawing his revolver, ready to shoot. Of course, he didn't get the memo of what the lookout team's purpose is, so somebody should maybe stop him.

--

"Go fish."

"Come ON! This game is stupid!" his friend yells and slams down his hand.

"What, would you rather be doing nothing?"

"Doing nothing and not LOSING, YEAH!"

"Dude, look, it's luck-based. You just keep guessing the wrong cards and not drawing the right ones. It's not because you have no skill..."

"It doesn't MATTER! I am INSECURE and I would rather be doing my JOB!"

"Yeah, well, who's gonna be coming anyway, huh? There's nothing but the idiots watching at home and not giving us any money and a bunch of Skags."

The Technicals carrying all (or most) of you in the extraction team suddenly smashes past the gates.

"...we're dead."

"Wanna screw off to Mel's Moonshine?"

"Yyyyyep."

The two run out of the booth and far away from the Holdout.

Axton bumps an Outrunner out of the way upon entering the arena, leaving Salvador to drive by and shoot the driver and gunner as he goes. "It's time, team! Let's show 'em what we've got!" the Commando yells, his voice echoed over the psychic connection so that all of you can hear it.

Krieg turns around to face you all.



"MORE MIXERS FOR THE FLESH DOUGH!"

He headbutts a nearby Bandit and throws him your way.

"Damn, is that Krieg?! That's my old squadmate! He might look like a Psycho, but he's with us!"

Outside, Kendall turns to every one of you on extraction. Let's go!

Lilith and Kirby

Kirby can't really say many words and Lilith has no self confidence whatsoever so they couldn't really do anything, she was sitting by herself on a pile of debris and was still disappointed about what she did while Kirby was still worrying about her. Lilith groaned before she put her hands on her face "How could I let myself do this, and I thought I couldn't be anymore incompetent then I already am." After Kirby heard what Lilith said he started to worry more.

  Julia shakes her head at Lilith's response. You realize I'm a psychic, right? I know when you're lying.
  
  She continues, Anyway, I know you're not feeling well, but try not to worry about earlier. Everyone makes mistakes, and it turned out fine. No harm done. That's all that matters.
  
  The Espeon turns to the others on the extraction team and addresses them again. Look for any concealed locations near the side of the arena Ribcage is on. From there I should be able to get the information without attracting attention.
  
  
  With that, she presses forward again, staying close to the walls of the houses to stay out of sight as much as possible.

  Natasha flinches as Megumin and her...companion hit the ground. She returns her rifle to her back and trots over as Abbott calls for help.
  
  Megumin seemed to be having some kind of seizure, and the other one...well, she had no idea. Fortunately, Shaw offers some kind of blue medicine that seems to cure Megumin right away.
  
  
  "That was one of the stupidest stunts I've ever seen," The Glaceon says dryly. She glances at Shaw, this time stifling a gag as she notices how much blood was covering her.
  
  She turns to Fish as he looks toward the battle and draws his revolver. "Uh...so are you two joining the lookout team? 'Cause we're just staying here...if you wanna fight, you can help the distraction team."

Lana

I started to make some people mad by talking when there’s plenty of noise that would drown out the sound of talking. Still, I did as I was told and shut my mouth. Before long Eric began to drag me with him. I didn’t mind at all since I was planning on following him anyway. I at least made it easier on him by moving my feet instead of just dragging them along. I started having second thoughts about this whole extraction team thing. Now that I think about it, I’m only really good of getting in the way and making a fool of myself so the distraction team would have been a better fit. It’s too late for that now though. I might was well try my hardest to help out... while following Eric of course...

Lilith and Kirby

It took some convincing for Julia to cheer Lilith up and get her to help her team out, once she did she got up and sighed "Okay I'll try at least try." Kirby celebrates, glad that Lilith has cheered up at least a little. Lilith floats over following the others when she suddenly turns to Kirby. "You wanna help to?" He nods and the two of them walk off to help the others get information from Ribcage.

Scott Baker

Having found Ribcage, the extraction team proceeded attempting to pry the necessary information out of him via Julia's telepathy. Figuring he won't help much with that, Scott decided to look for the launchers Zane mentioned. Unlike the Vault Hunters, he was very worried about them, and knew that a fell positioned AA weapon can cause a lot of pain. Mostly from using MANPADS himself on Auraxis.

With this, Scott continued wandering around the fortress, staying away from the heat of the battle, and continued searching for AA weapons. He wasn't sure if those launchers mentioned were vehicle mounted or shoulder launched weapons, but it didn't really matter, in the end, both kinds would have to be destroyed. ​

Lookout was very uneventful.

There wasn't really anything to do except watch for any enemies or strange people that may try to harm them, but there really wasn't any of them coming near the group. So, there wasn't anything to do really, and this made Elizabeth feel calm. There wasn't anyone coming to hurt them, the plan was going well, so she was confident in nothing really happening to them.

That was until they got a new member on the team. Or rather, two new members.

Hearing something drop behind them, thismade her jump and turn around to see what it was. Turns out, it was a girl and a... creature. It was green and looked like a fish. The girl was eager to go fight and the creature pulled out a gun, pointing it at the base. What it said, she didn't understand but could get the idea that it wanted them to go in and fight with it. She decided to speak up to the two, mostly towards rhe creature.

"Um, excuse me, are you two alright? My name is Elizabeth and I don't understand, you want us to go in there and fight with them? But we're lookout, we have to stay here and keep watch."

(with a bit of Ribcage)
__________________________
Taking the time after they cleared out the shack, she decided to go ahead and grab the stomach's from the bandits, cutting them open and taking the stomach's. As she did this, she heard Zane say that the three of them should head to a bar after this. 'Really? Well, if you're paying, I'll gladly go to a bar with you two. How about Moxxi's once this is over? '

After collecting the stomach's and putting the smaller ones inside of the bigger ones, taking out a small bag she had in case she needed to collect anything and stuffing them in there. She'd ask FL4K to hold onto them by putting them in his parka, but now wasn't the time. Wiping her hands on her jeans again, she put the bag away, grabbed her pistol and followed Zane. It was then she heard that there was a thousand bandits in the arena, followed by Ribcage who, with any luck, would be in the announcer's box as that would be the most important place for him to be in.

'Great... so there's a thousand of them. What's next, an entire mountain comes alive? ' It was then that she heard what sounded like a crash and judging by what Salvador said, it was more than likely the distraction team doing their part. Now all that was left was to figure out how to get to Ribcage.

'Well, anyone got any ideas on how to get to him? Don't think there's any way we could sneak around the back or get to where he is without going through the arena.'

Dani flew around the place, trying find Ribcage until she saw Skye staring at an arena with the man himself in it.

“I could overshadow him, like I said and get out of here.” Dani then recalls the words of Sora. “(The bandits may find out and try to rescue him, and we can’t risk another bandit outbreak.)” Dani shook her head frustrated, but decided to take the long way to help her friends in the long run.

“(He’s right, I can’t these guys or any of the town get hurt because of me.)” It was then Dani figures an idea to share with Skye. “Skye, I got one. What if I overshadow you to move past the bandits and take them out from the back?”

Well, she'd be lying if she said the idea didn't sound weird. Then again, this came from the same girl who had the ability called Phaseswapping. "It sounds weird, but I can't exactly Phaseswap in quick succession, plus my body would end uo remaining here. Fine, we'll go with your idea."

She turned to the two men. "Zane, Voss, I'll uh, be back." Skye then turned to Dani. "Dani, don't look in the bag in my pocket, I doubt you'd wanna see what's in it. Also, don't look at anything in my head, alright? Otherwise, go nuts."

“Trust me, I’ll take your word for it.” Dani joked before overshadowing her. It proves successful and now has full control over Skye’s body.

“Haha. It worked. Now let’s see about those donutheads.” Dani turns intangible flying past all bandits, only to form a fire ring wave taking them out, fading out before hurting any comrades. Dani exits Skye’s body to give her a choice.

“Don’t worry, dizziness only last for a few seconds, so you want to keep going? Or do you want me to do all the work?”

After Dani exited her, she stumbled for a bit before catching herself. "Yeah… I wanna keep going. Of course, if you wanna do all the work, I wouldn't object to it. I just need a second." That was really like nothing she had felt before. It was similar to the first few times she used her Phaseswap, but then got used to it. After taking a second to let the dizziness wear off, she looked at Dani for the reply.

Dani chuckles to herself, she was actually having fun with someone who she could relate to. “Don’t take too long or the prize might just disappear.”

“THE HERETICS HAVE FRIENDS, DO THEY?” Ribcage asks aloud from the safety of his booth with the microphone off.

A Marauder steps up. “Uh, Ribcage, sir… th-those are the guys from Skull’s Settlement! And it looks like they… they brought Vault Hunters from the Crimson Raiders!”

“QUIET, OSCAR! CAN’T YOU SEE THIS OPPORTUNITY? THIS IS A WAY TO KILL ALL OF THEM AT ONCE AND BROADCAST IT TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS! THIS IS THE EXACT THING WE NEED TO UNITE ALL THE REMAINING BANDIT CLANS SO THAT WE MAY COMPLETE OUR REVIVAL OF THE CALYPSOS! THAT WAS THE DEAL I MADE WITH-” The Psycho stops, noticing a certain presence there. “WHAT? DO I SMELL A GHOST AMONG US? BEGONE, SPIRIT OF ROLAND! I AM NO LONGER YOUR FANBO-”

Dani then overshadows Ribcage and informs Skye she’s still in there. “Don’t freak out, it’s me. I just overshadowed him so he won’t be totally defenseless, and I can get him back to base faster.”

After Dani came back, now as Ribcage, she looked at her and thought of something. "Actually, before we do that, let's have a bit of fun. After all, not every day you get to mess with a bandit clans with the leader of said clan."

As Nearl had continued with her various clashes and clangs at multiple numbers of Bandits, the sound of a sudden slash of a blade had completely caught her off guard. For a few moments, her Warhammer actually got stuck in one of the the men's skulls as she turned her head to try to defend herself against the incoming buzzaxe.

The slash of a blade suddenly cleaves through the weapon and through his leg as a foot suddenly kicks the bandit onto the floor, out of commission. Nearl looks over to see one of the newcomers she didn't actually come to meet with yet, but it seems he knows her name. What was this one again.. Grey?

She takes the compliment with a grin, her tail and ear flicking around a little as she finally pulls her Warhammer free from her last poor target. "Thank you for the compliment, and the assistance", she replies with a joyful nod. "Oh really, a plan?", she asks as she tilts her head, an ear following the same side, "Do tell!"

Shaw blinked, before looking down at her bloodsoaked attire. In the heat of battle, she hadn't really noticed her unsightly appearance until someone else had pointed it out to her. "Ah,sorry,I'llwashitoff—" She was cut off when the sound of Axton's calls reached her ears. Mouth snapping shut, she quickly jumped onto the technical just as it was passing by.

Being told to actively participate in a gladiator-style showdown wasn't exactly what she was expecting when she woke up today. Then again, a lot of her expectations were being broken the longer she stayed in this world. It was with no small amount of trepidation that she surveyed the area as soon as she got out of the vehicle.

Shaw counted twenty bandits on the ground. It was an arena, though, so there was no doubt that more would replace the ones that fall. She had an axe in hand, a water cannon at the ready, an SMG and a shotgun. Hackles raised, her tail was even bushier than normal. She can do this, all she had to do was focus.

Focus, Shaw.

Natasha flinches as Megumin and her...companion hit the ground. She returns her rifle to her back and trots over as Abbott calls for help.

Megumin seemed to be having some kind of seizure, and the other one...well, she had no idea. Fortunately, Shaw offers some kind of blue medicine that seems to cure Megumin right away.

"That was one of the stupidest stunts I've ever seen," The Glaceon says dryly. She glances at Shaw, this time stifling a gag as she notices how much blood was covering her.

She turns to Fish as he looks toward the battle and draws his revolver. "Uh...so are you two joining the lookout team? 'Cause we're just staying here...if you wanna fight, you can help the distraction team."

"Stupid? Well, I think Kazuma would have-Um, he would have understood that-Okay, yes, it was kind of dumb." Megumin deflated, only to reinflate herself with a breath. "But sometimes, we must do stupid things to be brave!" Unfortunately, Natasha and Elizabeth would both confirm that she had crashed in the wrong place.

Hearing something drop behind them, this made her jump and turn around to see what it was. Turns out, it was a girl and a... creature. It was green and looked like a fish. The girl was eager to go fight and the creature pulled out a gun, pointing it at the base. What it said, she didn't understand but could get the idea that it wanted them to go in and fight with it. She decided to speak up to the two, mostly towards the creature.

"Um, excuse me, are you two alright? My name is Elizabeth and I don't understand, you want us to go in there and fight with them? But we're lookout, we have to stay here and keep watch."

"Oh, I knew I used too little power." Megumin lamented, retrieving her half-buried staff. "But, yes, I am here to aid in the fight! We must all contribute towards our victory in this boss battle!"

A metallic barking comes from behind. Shredder, the robotic wolf, yaps and yaps as Megumin suddenly comes flying down with Fish on her back. The friendly Mutant gets off her back and dusts himself and his guitar off. The creature then stares at Shredder for a moment, and the wolf back, a tense silence persisting. Fish then glances at Natasha, Abbott, and Elizabeth. "FL'ÄÖ TH'KHUN Ö," he says and points at the stronghold, drawing his revolver, ready to shoot. Of course, he didn't get the memo of what the lookout team's purpose is, so somebody should maybe stop him.

"See? Fish agrees!" Megumin tipped her staff towards her new mutant friend. "I...I really shouldn't try what I did again. I'll just have to-" Before she could finish, another one of those big Technicals came by, and swooped Shaw up with it! "Woohoo! My hopes have been answered!" She used her staff to latch onto the back, waving her hat at the others. "If you wish to join me, you better hurry!" After gripping her hat in her teeth, she outstretched her hand for anybody else to grab on.

  Heather: (feat: Ribcage)
  _________________________________________________________________________________
  
  By now, most of the encampment was held in friendly hands, with the "distraction" (really more like assault) team having effectively cleared out most of it and Heather's troops garrisoning the rest, though, with the new announcement, new light came to her face as she had previously hung her head in sadness. She grabbed the nearest minion in a telekinetic grip and began shouting at him.
  
  --"THERE... IS... AN... ARENA... WHY... DID... YOU... NOT... TELL... ME... THERE... WAS... AN... ARENA... EVERYONE... MOVE... WE... GOTTA... GET... IN... THERE..."--
  
  "B-But-"
  
  Heather began dragging the minion and most of the others followed her,
  
  --"COME... ON... IT... WILL... BE... FUN..."--
  
  Heather steps into the arena following numerous flashbangs, one of which blew up in Shaw's face and left her quite disoriented. Heather took a look about as her vampiric special forces begin blasting away at gladiators and the enormous monsters pouring out of the arena gates. While they fought for their lives, Heather stood in the middle of the arena, telekinetically deflecting anything to come her way and allowing the others to handle it. As she did this, she would speak through the telepathic link once more. Elated by a combination of the carnage and her "mother"'s presence.
  
  --"MOMMY..! YOU... ARE... HERE... BUT... WAIT... YOU... JUST... HAD... ANOTHER... WOMAN... INSIDE... OF... YOU... DAMN... I... DON'T... QUITE... KNOW... HOW... TO... FEEL... ABOUT... THAT... MOM... BUT... OTHER... MOM... MIGHT... NOT... APPRECIATE... THAT... AND... HEY... WHO... IS... THE... GUY... WITH... ALL... THE... ARMS..?"--
  
  Ribcage would take notice of the little girl in a sundress just sitting in the middle of the arena.
  
  "HEY LOOK! THE HERETICS GOT KIDS TOO 'EH? THINK WE WON'T FIGHT KIDS? HAH! WE BEEN USIN' CHILD SOLDIERS SINCE DAY ONE! SOMEONE GO BITE HER HEAD OFF!"
  
  Heather did not seem to notice this, as numerous bandits began throwing themselves at her telekinetic barrier, getting thrown around but seeming to strain her. She likely would not be able to last long against such numbers, especially with her army preoccupied dealing with the monsters and other bandits, and the spectators as well. Ribcage being possessed didn't seem to effect this swarming behavior much, and Heather herself was having too much fun to realize that her head might soon explode.

  Give her elf ears, add tattoos/markings on her skin, give her snake eyes, change her hair color to blue, and maybe make her look a little younger, and this works.
