Realistic or Modern [OSV] "Our Small Victory"

Telekinetically suplex the main body.
F it. F that bastard for tricking Eryn and ruining his super cool plan, AND for ruining his Resident Evil session. I think Eryn has to pound that guy down to the ground.
 
Use the energy gun.
Still wondering who's going to walk out of the house alive? Let me break this down into something simple enough for you to understand.

Who's the guy carrying the dangerous-looking energy weapon? Eryn is. Who's the guy that thinks he's tough shit, but hasn't even managed to scratch any of the three teenagers having a slumber party?

I'm pretty sure this amateur doesn't even have what it takes to kill us. Let's use the gun and see if he looks the same on the inside.
 
Use the energy gun.

Supplexing is a waste of energy, freezing it then turning invisible would drain us, the electrotution is actually not that bad but I want to test the energy gun before trying anything crazy. We are showing signs of fatigue; let’s not push our luck.
 
Use the energy gun


"Our Small Victory"

Location: Eryn's living room, Time: 00:17 (Midnight)

Eryn froze the spikes coming at him again, but only the ones that were targetting him specifically. Sydney dropped the bubble shield that was around him when she noticed this, letting him pull the energy gun towards himself. He aimed and fired at the main body without any hesitation, sending a continuous beam at it. It wasn't noticable during the day for obvious reasons, but in the dark living room the light was almost blinding, forcing Eryn to look away while firing. The beam stopped abruptly without Eryn's intention, and the gun started making a beeping noise. When Eryn checked it, there was a flashing red battery symbol on the side of it.

"You shitting me right now?"

When he looked back at 'Predator-01', there was clear damage done to it. The beam appeared to have permantently destroyed parts of it's mass. He had also set his wall on fire, which was apparantly capable of instantly dematerialising its mass, which was probably why it was so hastily attempting to get out of the flames as quick as possible, so much so that it had stopped using spike attacks against the others. That last part was pretty good for Eryn, since he had just about reached his limit trying to freeze it. He likely wouldn't be able to do that again. Within the main body, now that parts of it were destroyed, Eryn could see a small device with a yellow glowing symbol on it. The symbol depicted a single small circle sprouting a few large wings which bent to cover itself. He looked back and forth from the device to the gun, seeing the same symbol slightly etched on the weapon. The entity pulled in all the mass from the walls into the main body, then hurled itself at Eryn, likely in a moment of pure rage.

Even so, since it attacked with all of its mass attached to the main body, it smashed through the shields that Sydney put up to block it's path, and managed to stab deeply into the bubble shield she ended up putting him, just barely missing Eryn. He fell backwards, startled, as the entity started stabbing right through the shield and onto the ground, as if the shield wasn't there. Eryn, in a panicked state, went invisible without thinking and scrambled to his feet, bolting behind the sofa with Sydney since she had promptly dropped the bubble shield once it proved to be useless.

The entity turned back around and prepared to charge at one of the other two. The main body at covered up it's wounds, but this meant it'd have slightly less mass to attack with.


Well shit. You don't have the strength to freeze its spikes or its charges anymore, but that doesn't mean telekinesis is totally out of the question. Alternatively, you still have a shotgun.


Fire the shotgun at around where the device appeared to be.
Pull Robin over to you and make everyone invisible.

Chuck the entire entity out the window.
Compress the mass into a small enough area so that Robin can electrocute the entirety of it at once.

A wild plot appears!

Fire the shotgun! Kill it with fire!

Still want to see if this works

Well... we don't have a whole lot of energy left, and since we brought these nice guns with us, we may as well use 'em. I don't think there are many bad guys out there that can stand up to a barrage of buckshot.

"Our Small Victory"

Location: Eryn's living room, Time: 00:21 (Midnight)

Eryn pulled his shotgun to him and fired at the main body before it could start its charge. He was almost thrown backwards by the recoil due to his poor footing, and his ears started ringing immediately. The entity was staggered, but the wound started healing as soon as it had appeared. The shotgun didn't permanently destroy any mass like the energy gun did, so the entity wouldn't be harmed in the long run. Even so, he started firing repeatedly at around the area he saw the device, never giving it a chance to fully close up the holes. Sydney and Robin caught on quickly, also firing their weapons at it. Robin, having a sawn-off variant, actually was thrown backwards by his first shot.

The entity, despite being staggered by the first few shots, started to steady itself and prepare again to charge, now ignoring the various holes constantly appearing and dissapearing in its main body. It was then, however, that Eryn saw the faint glow of the device behind the mass that constantly shifted to try and hide it. His shoulder was hurting from the repeated shots, and as such his aim was shaky. When he fired, he did manage to hit the device, but only barely thanks to the weapon spread. The device was evidently tougher than it looked, with only light scratches appearing on it. It took a few more shots from everybody to create a crack in the transparant protective surface.

Eryn heard the voice coming from the device again, but literally couldn't understand a single word over the ringing in his ears. The entity's main body deformed back into strings of mass and left the room through the small cracks and holes in the walls, not leaving a single trace that it had ever been there, except for the fire and bullet holes which were caused by Eryn and Co. anyway. He faintly heard Sydney calling to him about something, but couldn't properly hear her either.


"...What?"
"..."
"wHaT?"

"WHaTt?!"

He looked to Robin, who appeared to be doubled over and laughing hysterically at them, and Eryn noticed that he had actually put his ear protectors on before firing. His hearing started to return as the laughter became more clear. Eryn's father poked his head into the room.

"You kids alright?"

Sydney quickly snuffed out the fire by smothering it with a bubble shield.


"Uh.....yeah."

"...Cool." His father left the room. The three of them promptly collapsed to the floor, with Eryn and Sydney being exhausted and Robin presumably just trying to join in.

"So, about that symbol..."
"No. I don't want to think about it. I've dealt with too much bullshit for today, I can't afford to use any brain power on anymore bullshit."
"Alright...tomorrow, then?"
"If we're alive tomorrow...."

Good Point. What will you do for the rest of the night?


Go the fuck to sleep.
Stay vigilante the whole night, and then just sleep in. It's a Saturday, you won't miss much.

Finish the game.
Take turns keeping watch and sleeping.

Take turns keeping watch and sleeping. Is it just me or does this seem too easy? No? Then let’s make sure we all survive the night!
 
>>>Take turns keeping watch and sleeping.

This seems like the most reasonable option for everyone, allowing everyone to get a bit of sleep in a manageable way
 
Take turns keeping watch and sleeping.

The fuck, the only thing more scary than the creature itself is how the father reacted. I can't believe he was just so dismissive of multiple gunshots in his house, children being in danger under his watch, and some unknown entity just coming and going without any proper explanation. That's horror movie shit people, mark my words. In any case, you should take turns sleeping so you don't get caught off guard, this thing is trying to kill you after all. And when someone sees the creature, make him alert you with a gunshot.
 
Take turns keeping watch and sleeping.

I agree with Heis. This world is weird, but I expected the father to have more common sense. The wall is full of holes and gunshots were fired. Even if the...whatever that was is sneaky, a battle visibly happened. I don’t really count on him to keep us safe, so we will take turns.

"Our Small Victory"

Location: Eryn's living room, Time: 03:00am

It was Eryn's turn to keep watch now, as he sat up in his sleeping bag. He constantly checked the room with TK Sonar whenever he felt the slightest movement in the walls, but he couldn't tell if there was actually someone there or if it was just literally any other explanation. He was getting twitchy and was startled even by the occasional leaf blowing onto the window.

To help pass the time, he started browsing his phone. A few more details had come out about Suplex Stan's arrest, but one that stuck out was the fact that a brain implant was found in his head. Stan claimed he had no knowledge of the implant, and when asked about his motives for the robbery, he said he didn't remember any of it nor could he think of a reason that he'd risk dissapearing by acting in the open like that. Eryn wasn't too worried about it, until he saw the released picture of the impant, which had the same glowing red symbol from the entity and the energy gun.


What ARE you?

He knew he said that he wasn't bothered to talk about the symbol until the next day, but now he couldn't stop thinking about it. He closely inspected the symbol that was on the energy gun using the dim light of his phone screen. He knew that he probably hadn't seen the symbol itself, but it's shape was what bothered him. Multiple wings coming off a smaller circle in the middle. Its familiarity knawed at his mind, as if it was something he should have been obvious to him immediately. But he didn't remember until now, or at least didn't want to consider the possibility of what it might have been. He knew he might have remembered if he checked his notebook for it, but wanted to put it off for as long as he could. But with the symbol appearing in so many places in such a short time frame, it was becoming impossible to suppress the memory.

After finally looking through the notebook, it was undeniable. The symbol was the sillhouette of
The Angel, the being that caused the event fittingly known as Angel's Massacre, shortly before the superhero dissapearances had first begun. He was so tired and mentally drained at this point that he didn't even know how to react, though. Eventually he changed shifts with Robin and went back to sleep.

Location: Downtown, Time: ???

This used to be a recurring dream for Eryn, especially in the days directly after Angel's Massacre, but he hadn't had this one for a long time. He was in a small store, looking at different goggles for the superhero suit he was still working on. At one point he ended up in a conversation with another person his age, who gave off the vibe that they were getting goggles for the same purpose. He couldn't remember her face or what exactly was said, however, as it happened so long ago.

Everything in that scene was now a blur for him, as it transitioned into a scene of flames and rubble. He was in his superhero suit now, albeit a much earlier version with cheaper materials, no logo arm band, no weapon, and a black bandana instead of the respirator mask that would have been much more useful here. The girl he was talking to, along with other customers, were injured on the floor as part of the ceiling had collapsed in and parts of the building were on fire. Outside, as it was night time, the sky was lit up red with the flames coming from all the other buildings that had been damaged. And in the distance, the clear figure of The Angel was floating above the chaos, sending it's beams of destruction down at the city indiscriminately. Screams were heard everywhere, barely letting Eryn focus on any single thought. The Battle Alert app was going crazy with rapid notifications. Heroes were rushing around, some helping with rescues and others going directly towards The Angel. He could hear the footsteps of The Sentinels closing in.

Eryn knew how this would end. He knew how it always ended.


You might not be able to change what really happened, but for some reason you feel compelled to try and do better anyway.


Pursue The Angel directly.

Just a second option for people to consider, even though allegedly it won't matter. I like the green option too, though.
