Blewcheese Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Joseph skids against the ground with an audible Oof. "Damn you..." He mutters, before glancing at his three allies and using his telepathy to speak to them. "Hey. A little help?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blewcheese Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 "Yes, but you have two, not including myself, people with you. You'll figure something out, I'm sure." Joseph then proceeded to bend Pops's blade in such a way to pick at the bindings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Will extends his blade, and Violet concentrates her static electricity into her blade. They prepare to charge the Forgotten the second they see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 The shade teleports to Will and Violet, using its unnaturally flexible arms to smash them against eachother. It then vanishes and reappears before White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (edited) 'Welp, here goes nothing.'White swings her spear horizontally at the shade. It disappears before the spear makes contact, but she turns and continues the swing behind her, hoping the shade will teleport into it.

Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 The shade instead teleports directly in front of White, striking her in the face and throwing her backwards. Her spear goes flying out of her hands. <I am not some member of a mindless horde.> It hisses, tormenting her with mental agony. <Tricks like that could not even fool a child of my race.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 White clutches her head and screams in agony."Stop it!"Without thinking, White extends her hand toward the shade. It's arm becomes encased in ice which quickly starts spreading over the rest of its body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Violet and Will rub their heads, and rise to their feet. Will notices the Shade being encased in ice, and is immediately reminded of Snowfall. He falls to his knees, grasping his head in pain. Violet holds her sabre in both of her hands, and charges at the shade. She raises her sword into the air, and brings it down over its head.

Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 The shade vanishes as Violet strikes at it, leaving an empty mold of ice where it was. The sabre gets stuck in the ice, and the Forgotten appears behind White, holding its bladed arm against her throat. <My orders do not include you; merely the girl. Drop your weapons, or I will convert her, and all the static electricity in the world will not bring her back.> It hisses in a dangerously calm voice.

MenaAthena Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 "Don't... It'll just... kill you." White managed to choke out. Her eyes were filed terror and she felt like she was going to faint. She had never wanted to go home more in her life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 The shade hisses in delight. <Quite the contrary, I'm afraid. First, your skin will burn off your bones. Then, your jawbone will weave into your skull, cutting off your ability the speak, save for your screams of pain and suffering. And then...you will be pushed into the back of your mind, to forever weep as everything dark and evil about you takes control of your body. This is the fate that awaits you.> The Forgotten speaks these words in its normal calm tone, then looks up at the others. <So I'd suggest you release your hold on your weapons.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 "I don't care about her. She'll still die eventually. Everyone does. I'm more concerned with getting rid of-"Will grabs Violet from behind, and kicks her ankles out. Her sabre falls to the snow-covered ground."We can't let her die, and I'll kill you before I let her die again.""Again!? What the f**k are you talking about!? We don't even know her!"Will kicks Violet's sabre away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blewcheese Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Joseph, who had seen the same person that Will had, winced away from the ice as he destroyed the binding around his hands. "Will, calm down. They're not the same." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blewcheese Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 "Hmm? Oh, but as you've so very clearly shown us, we can't harm you. Does this blade frighten you?" Joseph remained on the ground, building up telekinetic energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 <It disgusts me more than anything else.> The shade replies, pushing the blade into White's throat. A painful burning sensation occurs in her throat as a small bit of it turns charred black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blewcheese Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 "No, Will's right. I shouldn't hold onto this blade." Joseph tossed the blade a few feet in front of him, still maintaining his telekinetic strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenaAthena Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 White whimpers as the blade presses against her throat. A tear roles down her cheek as she closes her eyes.'If it comes down to it, please kill me before I become one of those things.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battal Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 <Oh, don't you worry.> The shade says privately to White. <I'm sure my mistress will have a far worse fate for you in mind.> It the turns to leave the clearing, then takes one last look at the group.

Blewcheese Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 (I think we'd both assumed you meant for that to be telepathic, and, for simplifying purposes, Joseph sets up a telepathic "link" between those he talks to, meaning everyone that is linked can hear, in this case, Joseph, Will, Violet, and White.)As the shade had turned to leave, Joseph had sent Pops's blade flying at the shade's head.
