Shadowfall

[Blewcheese]

(Uh... What'd I miss?)

[Battal]

(The Mother died, Kyle was killed by a snake, and Violet's arm got lopped off.)

[Blewcheese]

(Ah.)

Pops groaned. "Enough." The boiling blood within the snake began to evaporate, sending steaks of heat and pain to it's mind. Joseph watched Pops with horror filled eyes. Hey, at least it was an emotion.

[Will]

Dark Will turns to the snake, and aims his revolver. He unloads as quickly as possible, but the snake dodges all shots without even looking at Dark Will. He quickly glances at Violet, to see that luckily, the venom was only in her arm that he had lopped off. Unfortunately, she was bleeding profusely, and needed medical attention. Dark Will curses under his breath, and withdraws an empty syringe and an empty test tube from his pouch. He inserts it into his skin, and draws forth his purple blood. Dark Will lights a small fire, and boils the liquid, and then puts it back in the syringe. He injects the liquid into Violet. The wound closes rapidly, and from the stump, emerges the bones, and then the muscles, and then finally, the skin.

"Viola! Healing at it's finest!"

[Battal]

(OP OP UR OUT OF THE RP WIL GO AWY UR BAD)

[Percival]

(Aw man, I wanted to give her a glimpse of The Umbra. Don't worry, she won't die...as long as she can keep a mental chain.)

 

The snake recoils at the heat, slashing around in random directions, trying to stop the unknown source of pain.

[Will]

(She's unconscious, she can see it. Just don't kill her. There will be side effects to what Dark Will just did, by the way.)

 

Edit: Wait a second... Daver's... gone? This can't... this can't be happening... noooooooooooo!

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

Violet felt a sense of dread and fear. Darkness was swarming in the air, keeping her afloat, but she could feel herself falling slowly. It felt like she was in a rippling pool of fear, the fluctuations passing through her inner being. Looking around, there wasn't much to see; emptiness and oscillating pools of nightmares. Below her, however, is a deep dark abyss, as large as she could imagine, and as old as she cannot. In the abyss were two familiar hands, rising out of the surface, waiting for someone that would never come. Above them were peculiar structures of ropes, chains, ladders, and other structures made of strange materials. Some of them held mementos, others held what looked like organs, while still others had nothing.

 

(Better focus hard and long.)

[Battal]

Hm.  How heroic.  Shadowfall's voice rings through the cavern.  You killed a non-hostile, innocent being even after it begged for mercy.

 

Shadowfall laughs.

 

Still feeling like the good guys?

[Will]

"I'm neutral, you bastard. Just defending my interests, which happens to be staying alive."

[Battal]

You call yourself neutral, when you are simply a slave.  Don't self-inflate yourself before me, mortal. 

[Blewcheese]

Pops sighs. "There's no such thing as a good guy. Or a bad guy. It's all a matter of opinion."

[Battal]

Wise words from a wise man.  Shadowfall says in a mocking voice.  So what's your opinion of yourself?  I'll leave you with that.

[Blewcheese]

Pops clenches his fists, shaking his head. What did he think of himself? He did know that he didn't want to die in a horrible apocalypse in a few days. So if it was as simple as that, then so be it.

[Battal]

(Interesting that half a second after I return, you post.  Hmmmm...)

 

Shadowfall seems to be gone, but the enraged snake is still lashing about, and no doorway has magically opened from the Mother's death.

[Percival]

(If you desperately want to come back, then no. As far as the book says, there isn't any known way to leave The Umbra if a demon has brought you there in the first place.)

[Percival]

(You volunteered. And you can never go back once you volunteer.)

[Battal]

Almost instantly, Kyle is ripped apart by Fabrico's serpent.  Blood and intestines splatter the walls as the snake eats its way through his rib cage.

(Heeeeeeeheee, I actually found that funny. Am I insane?)

[Battal]

(Probably.)

[HoneyHam]

(poop)

[Percival]

(Enough of this. Let's just pretend that Kyle didn't leave the Umbra. If you want, you can have total control over  the snake from now on Battal, or I could just kill it.)

[Battal]

The serpent finishes off Kyle's corpse, then turns to the group.  It flicks its tongue in the air, and suddenly, catches a different scent.  A massive amount of flesh and blood, fresh and barely alive.  The amount of food was more, far more than the measly scraps of souls that stood before it.  The scent was enticing.  Too enticing.  The snake slithers into the chasm, and soon, the creature is out of sight.

[Percival]

(I guess that means I am no longer roleplaying. Bye!)

[Battal]

(No, you gotta lead Kyle through the Umbra or something.  And you can always make a new char.)
