[The Murder Game Series] Murder: The Ties that Bind

[The Gil]

Bigby looked at the red haired girl. She looked better now. The witch had done a good job. Upon hearing the question from the witch, he looked at the demon boy from heads to toe. He looked okay, except for the fact that he was still a bit wet from the water Bigby threw at him. Bigby held out for his hand. "I'm Bibgy Wolf, from NYPD. Sorry about the water, I had no idea that you were, well, a demon". Looking back to the witch, he asked: "What about you, what's your name? And are you really a witch or am I just offending you here?"

"Ooh, then, hi Isaac! What's all this weird stuff you're wearing? Armour?" She hopped around Isaac, looking at all the little bits on his armour, the glowing spine and mask catching most of her attention. "If it is, it isn't anything like the armour I've seen..."

Isaac's head tracked the little girl as she hopped around him. Well, that was one question answered already --he certainly came from a different place or time than these people did. This armor is fairly common where he is from.


"Yeah, it's armor. Apparently, we're not from the same place, or maybe time," he said, willing to take everything here at face value given his somewhat strong expectations of waking up in the middle of a necromorph infested corridor soon.


Checking his HUD on a hunch, he discovered the map layout navigator did not work --another point for being from another time.

 

[Sandra]

Rin nodded and shook his hand. "Rin Okumura." He looked back at the red headed girl and he nodded to the witch as a thanks. "Thank you both, she looked really scared..."

Columbus stared at the man before him. His only thoughts were how and where.


Columbus pulled himself together and said "Uh, no, I'm fine, thanks."


Columbus thought this over. He had seen what looked like Hell, but no real reason to give it such a title.


He shook the man's hand. "Columbus, but there's nothing out there, it looks like Mardi Gras went thru it ten times over, but it's deserted."

@Unusual Philosopher


"Mardi Gras? Hah, think that plus guns and death." His tone was serious, albeit him not talk allot.

@SirDerpingtonIV


"Of course Spy," that name would become awkward with time, "Unless someone becomes frightened and begins to unload their weapon onto me, we shall meet again."


With that, he left the Frenchman's side to seek another ally.


(Who shall be my next victim...?)

She lightly knocked on the armour, testing out how tough it felt. "Why is it glowing? Did you enchant it or something?"

"Death? There's nothing out there. The most dangerous thing I saw was a guy with some kind of rash on his face." Columbus said, confused.

"I'm afraid that I too am unfamiliar with potions. Like yourself, all I can do is help protect everyone around here," Elsa replied. "And I fear I'm even more useless than you are. Upon coming to this world, my powers were weakened a little," she admitted, sighing sadly. "I will do what I can can to help though. Like if anyone had a swollen injury I could give them some ice. Or perhaps I could freeze the ground around the building to make it slippery and hard for the crossed to walk," she thought.

[/QUOTE]
"Ah, I know that weave well. You just have to use some spirit and apply pressure on the corners, but I suppose you don't know how to do that. Well, I could teach you when we have spare time. Since we can't do much at the moment, why don't we work together and make some barriers to fortify our position? I could move some stones around and you could freeze the some exits." Rand said. He was still unsure as to how to help these people. Of course, there was always the option of merely going back home, but that wasn't right. He wasn't even sure if he could as it managed to take him pretty far from home. Perhaps he should scout the area and look for anybody else that needed help. "Elsa, once I've assisted these people in fortifying our small fortress, I'm going to search for some survivors, would you like to assist me?"

 

[Reaper Jack]

Nobody appeared to have noticed him. Well that was fine. Walking to the bottom of the stairs, he remained alert and on guard, but still did not initiate conversation with any of the individuals in the area, he sat on the bottom step and placed the loaded Calico in his lap before lighting up a single cigarette, puffing on it slowly.

*still slumped and alone I walk by the man called Delta (or from what i've read)*

 

[SirDerpingtonIV]

"Then we shall just have to hope that does not happen, Delta." Spy said, before turning around, and looking around for some others to speak with. @Deeox2

[QUOTE="Flaming Centurion]"Dammit…" Dandy thought, he now realised why nobody was crowding him. Because nobody knew him.
"My name's Space Dandy, but you can call me Dandy." He noticed that Claire wanted him to entertain her. "I'm an alien hunter...Not like those stupid guys who look for life on Mars. But I look for rare Aliens. See that guy over there?" *points at Garrus*


"I capture ones like him and take them to a space station where they register them into a database and I get payed big money!" *he rubs his thumb and finger together as if there was money inbetween them* Dandy smiles at Claire and seems quite curious what the girl did and why she was talking to Chris.

[/QUOTE]
" Dandy huh, that actually fits quite well, considering your friendly disposition. " She thought, as she too looks over to where Dandy had pointed, noticing that blue armored clad alien once more. Nodding her head in approval as Dandy spouts his tale. " I doubt that guy over there is the only of his... Kind, but I see what you're getting at. You're an astronaut with spunk, surfing the galaxy for your own glory... and money, I must say I'm a bit jealous. " She responds to his little introduction, smiling as she extends the hand not in use keeping her head up. " Name's Claire, Claire Redfield, but you can certainly call me Claire, or some interesting nickname you may have for me. "

 

[Sovereign]

She lightly knocked on the armour, testing out how tough it felt. "Why is it glowing? Did you enchant it or something?"

Isaac blinked, though one could not see that behind the helmet. Enchanted?


"Uh, no? It's illuminoptic, the bar on the back lets those working with me know how bad or good my physical state is. The helmet projects and also releases a light frequency that allows for easy mapping on the display inside this helmet," he explained, trying to keep the engineering jargon to a minimum.


Then he saw something very interesting. Massive gauntlets --machines almost-- that appeared like they shouldn't even work yet alone be wielded. Fascinated, tired, and still expecting to wake up, he saw no problem walking up to the wielder to ask.


@MrDubWubs


"Those shouldn't work. Engineering says they shouldn't work. So... how do they?" he asked. Still rather well-coated in fresh crimson, he didn't exactly consider his appearance when engaging in this interaction.

 

[Deeox2]

@MrDubWubs


Delta stopped and began to observe the newcomer. "Do you wish to speak to me," he said carefully, this man looked strong, but fairly silent.


(I'll get to you all eventually, hold your horses.)

*looks you up and down* Um... I built them... and they work... *puts them on just in case*

Scorpion almost cursed out loud. The boy had no further information than he did. His means of arriving here were interesting, though. He was asleep and awoke to find himself in a new land. Scorpion held his tongue and nodded briefly. The boy revealed his name to be Luke. "Scorpion," came the Wraith's short reply. "As you, I am not of this land, and if I were to risk a guess, I would say I am not of this time, as well-" His sentence died in his throat. Words danced into his ear, spoken from not twenty feet away.


"I will do what I can can to help though. Like if anyone had a swollen injury I could give them some ice. Or perhaps I could freeze the ground around the building to make it slippery and hard for the crossed to walk."


His eyes rose quickly and he glanced over Luke's shoulder at a woman. She didn't look much like an assassin, but that was the very point of being one. People wouldn't be able to guess you were an assassin unless you wanted them to. She wore the many shades of blue, and she spoke of ice magic. That spelled one thing in Scorpion's revenge-driven mind.


She was Lin Kuei. His face darkened as he glared in her direction, current situation forgotten. She was his lead. She would give him Sub-Zero. And then he would have his revenge. But not here. Without his Hellfire he wouldn't be much of a match for this entire room. He would get her alone and make her reveal the location of Sub-Zero, or she would die. He returned his dark gaze to Luke. "Surviving this situation is going to require strength, not just in self but as a unit. It is in everyone's best interest to work together." At this he extended a single hand, offering it to Luke.

The bone structure began to creak ever so slightly. Lann heard the warning just in time to stand up before the display collapsed elegantly unto the floor. The creature's head tumbled first, before its body followed through. He noticed the sign next to it and shook his head, hoping the others ignored the crash. He wouldn't have leaned on it if the whole place isn't too crowded. He kicked aside the rubble and picked up a sharp stump of bone that had split in half. "Would make a good weapon," he mumbled to himself as he swung it in the air a couple of times before securing it on his belt. Eyeing the mess he had made, he casually walked away pretending he hadn't caused the scene at all.


(Alright! Time to find someone to talk to. O)

Annie looked blankly up at Isaac, with absolutely no idea what he just said. She still skipped by his side as he walked towards Vi, maybe this guy could be both their friends! "They're pretty cool right?"

Dandy smiles at the fact he's actually manage to impress a woman. Without getting slapped or that woman being really stupid.


"Well, the job isn't so easy y'know. Nice to meet you Claire Redfield, Some Aliens have huge tentacles and mind powers and all kinds of other freaky stuf-Wait, you're related to that Chris guy?" Dandy cried inside as he knew that Chris could beat him at any moment. "Are you two?" Dandy's eyes shift between Claire and Chris and eventually land on Claire again. "I knew you were too flirty to not be married." Dandy frowns.

"They're... interesting."


Isaac canted his head downward to examine the gauntlets. They had gears and sprockets and steam vents --all the likes of which he had never seen before. They didn't seem like they should work, steam does not pack that kind of power. Then again, the little girl did just ask him if his own armor was enchanted. There was also an alien at the door, a person of fire as if it were routine, and a hulking man in a vintage diving suit with a drill.


"I see. I suppose that's the only real answer then isn't it. Things around here are... not right. Enchanting? Magic? All eras of technology rolled into one place?" He spoke more to himself than anyone else, but it was a valid observation.

"They get you, your dead. They find you, your dead. Stay away from those guys..." He walked over to the middle of the entire group of survivors "Can I have everyones attention!?"

" Oh Heavens no! He's my brother, as much as I love my brother, I'd never marry a big meat head like him, we'd butt heads way too much, not like we don't already " She laughed, holding her face in her hand as she took a moment to settle down, propping her head up in her hand again after wiping a tear away with the other. " I'm single.. Heh.. " She says with a nervous chuckle.

((@Klutzy Ninja Kitty


Alright, have fun. I can just do some stuff and you can appear next to me for no reason when you come back.


@MozoWhittaker


Wanna Not sure where that would put us, you wanting to kill her and me protecting her or something.))


@Leo Barnes


Rand heard someone ask for attention and decided to listen. He had nothing to do and figured he might as well.

((Edited to fix missed reply.))

"What, have you never seen magic before? I can demonstrate it if you want!" She seemed pretty excited for Isaac to say yes, holding a hand up as flame surrounded it, the same going for her teddy bear.

Dandy's face lights up in joy.


"If I could re-arrange the alphabet, I'd put 'U' and 'I' together, baby."


Dandy smiles as his hope was not broken, and continues to flirt with Claire.


...


He's still really scared of Chris though.
