Rooftops - Santa Cruz - California | Night

With a simple nod to Isaac, Shadow quickly began following the Engineer and Youkai by quickly jumping from rooftop to rooftop, unsurprisingly enough thanks to his inhuman speed he was capable quickly keeping up with the two. However he remained silent as he followed the two fighters in this battle against the undead.



Streets of London

With a smile and a wink Aisha commanded Angkor to take flight now that Carl and Ada were safely on the demon bat. It wasn't even a few seconds before Angkor took flight and quickly flew right over Jack's head and towards the Labs.



Armor Technologies Lab - Sector 4 - Prometheus Labs - London

Raven waved at Lily with a small smile on his face before turning to look at the scientist as the man began explaining that the armor Lily is being outfitted with is not a new armor, but rather her old one essentially having everything activated.
That fact made Raven just role his eyes and cross his arms.

"Whatever. I never really understood the tech of this place." Replied Raven as he looked at his Nasod Arm... the very arm that 3 months ago was badly damaged while trying to protect the labs against Wesker. However due to him having had pushed his arm to it's limits it nearly broke. Thankfully the labs was able to repair, and even upgrade it.

That also got Raven to thinking about how he hasn't gotten fully used to or used any of his new upgrades in a REAL combat situation. Sure there was the demon invasion from earlier... but he didn't get to test out his upgraded Nasod Arm to it's fullest then. After thinking about that Raven began to think of a interesting idea.


"Hey Lily. Once you get your suit all fixed up and ready, and get everything entirely checked out... would you like to spar again? If I recall our last sparring match was interrupted, and it would be nice for me to test out all the other features on my Nasod Arm against you. If that's fine with you that is."


Sector 4 - Prometheus Labs - London

Chung just chuckled and tried to hold back his laughter as he walked with Neuman.

"I think that's fair. Raven did get you pretty badly. Then again you don't want to joke with Raven when it comes to 'the whole place will be destroyed if this happens'. From what I know of him, he's quite sensitive about possibly losing not just the people he knows, but many others as well."


Russia

"Well the name's Elesis, and it was a pleasure fighting with you. Though I don't know anything about this Ridley guy or whatever this 'Phazon' is... but if it possesses a large amount of power then the demons were probably after it." Replied Elesis.

Hieda Manor - Human Village | Gensokyo

Bang just followed the Elder until they stopped to talk about something... that did not make Bang feel a little... uneasy.

"So... it seems as though this Youkai that's been attacking people... it's already caused quite a bit of damage... As for the Lady Akyuu... What exactly is wrong with her? Is she poisoned? Or is she just injured? If she was injured, but recovered from her injuries yet is suffering from some kind of toxin, then one of my disciples can possibly help treat her and possibly save her life. However if it's injuries she is dealing with... I might know someone else who can quickly save her."

Bang spoke quietly to Elder Hon, trying not be too loud.

"I'm sorry if I'm trying too hard to be of help, but I just cannot tolerate potentially losing an innocent live. Especially if the life that was lost was lost to a vicious youkai."

Hieda Manor - Human Village


"Fie, it is alright." The Elder assured the troubled guest as well. "The child of Miare's death is only a natural thing. She will resurrect as a new incarnation after her soul archives everything she has learned in this lifetime."

The servant opened the door to the infirmary as the Elder explained the traits of being a child of Miare. The infirmary was, as to be expected, clean and comforting for the four victims laid here. Two of them still seemed to be in a dire situation as the nurses tended to their injuries still. One was unconscious, but his bandaged body was devoid of any blood marks. The first victim of the Youkai attack was awake, and was reading a book.

"Tsugahara san, you have a guest." The servant called out, and a fairly aged woman wearing an old-fashioned surgeon's gown approached the two.

"Good morning, Elder Hon." The woman, Tsugahara, addressed the village elder properly before realizing she still had her gown and a pair of bloodied rubber gloves. "Oh deary me, look at my mess."

"It's quite alright." The elder chuckled. "May we talk to one of the patients about the attacks?"

"Of course. Come on in." Tsugahara motioned the two to come in as the servant who escorted them left to attend to other matters.


Apartment Balcony | Barcelona, Spain


"What do you meaaaaan, I just wanted to tour Barcelona and meet new people and try new tea! Are all Barcelonians this hostile?!" Kongou cried, elevating into a bellow of exceptional decibel, until she scanned the table to find some desserts. "Are those... are those cake?"


Xunantunich | Belize


"Steady... steady..." Ellis repeated as the helicopter descended. Right when the helicopter's landing skids were level to the uppermost canopy of the jungles around the ruins, he told Max to stop the descension.


Metro Omelette House | Manhattan, NY


"Yes, I am quite fortunate." I admitted. I've learned that there are more despicable humans who exploit others to gain an advantage for themselves... like my former trainer. If I took the wrong choices in my time here, I would've been in mercy to them... or worse, be one of them.

"Your orders." Mrs. Irvine's announcement terminated my thought process. She had everyone's food ready on a cart: my Garden omelette with sliced tomatoes, corns, and peas with molten cheese within cooked egg, a rather meatier substitute for the man in helmet called Soldier and the red-haired mechanic named Gaige, as well as two plates of cooked fish with scrambled eggs for the blue wolf named Dust and the dark-skinned explosive maniac by the title of Demoman. "Enjoy your meal."

"Thank you for the meal." I thanked for the food and took the first bite of my omelette. As always, it was divine.

Ciel upon hearing the woman's reaction, let out an annoyed sigh as he relinquished his weapons, causing them to vanish in a puff of blue smoke. It was clearly obvious by the expression on his face that he was annoyed if not confused about this strange girl's reactions. However he put his anger slightly aside at how... almost adorable Kongou's reaction to seeing the well cooked desserts that he made himself on the table on the Balcony.

"Yes, and I made them. But you can't have any! They are for my mistress. So unless she says you can have some, I will refrain you from eating any of them..." Ciel said as he crossed his arms, ready to restrain Kongou if she even so much as picks up a dining utensil. However his calm demeanor came to a rather shocked and worried one.

"Shit!" He cursed as he turned around, quickly picking up Lu's unconscious body off the ground. "Lu! Wake up!"



Metro Omelette House | Manhattan, NY


As the Soldier and Demoman were busy talking about... god knows what, Mrs. Irvine came back with plates of food. With the Soldier's well-made omelette in front of him on the table, the Soldier picked up a fork and looked around, and upon seeing Sana take a bite out of the omelette the Soldier proceeded to take a small bite of his.

Taking a moment to taste the omelette the Soldier didn't say anything at all... and after he finished eating the small bite he quickly and viciously began devouring the plate of food, seemingly not caring about table manners in the slightest. It was obvious that he was enjoying the omelette.

Kongou looked crestfallen when she heard the cake was not for her. She pouted as she waited for this... meanie... stupid-face to wake his mistress up so they can enjoy some tea and cake together.

"Grr... I would love a cuppa..." Kongou murmured in protest, but otherwise peacefully stood there.

Gaige was enjoying her meal when she saw the soldier eating as if there was no tomorrow "And here se got a perfect example of how hunger beats manners" she spoke more to herself tan to her companion "Anyways, this tastes great, now I know where to have breakfast in the future"

Russia

"Then we got a good reason for them gathering around" Samus confirmed the redhead swordswoman´s guess "Phazon is a powerful element, but it also corrupts everything that is alive, be it a creature, plant, anything that can be categorized as alive, it supercharges the living cells to incredibe levels and can cause catastrophic destruction"

Xunantunich | Belize


The wanderer used her side sword to break the oncoming arrows "Every dungeon has poisoned arrows, and the pressure plates become obvious after you activate them" she grumbled while ducking from a lucky arrow, she even felt the wind on her hair as the projectile almost grazed her head. "But it also means I´m getting closer" she said to herself while moving to the deeper part of the ruins

Streets of London

Finishing her ice cream, Vala activated her communicator and waited for the receiver to respond, she was relaxed on the bench while the AI was doing god knows in her mind. Suddenly a voice was heard on the other end of the line "So what have you got?" the direct question didn´t surprise the blonde.

"We found the area where the doctor and some spartans work, but decided to make them come here by using what they may think as important information, better have a fair ground than going directly to their base" The brawler responded. The woman on the other side chuckled at that "Would you look at that, our little girl is waiting for the other team´s move"

Vala laughed knowing she did the right thing "Aw come on Nicole, give me some credit, these guys have been trained to b like yourold friends, I also need to be professional" she defended herself, but then again, she was speaking with her mentor "But a good advisse would be appreciated too"

The mature spartan pondered about what to say to her adopted daughter "Have fun, what I learned while training with the spartans was that we lost our humanity, so I´m sure these new soldiers will have some similar effects. If they come with seriousness, show them the joy of battle, just be you" and with that, the line went dead.

"Be me? pfft, then let´s have fun" the brawler grinned.

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..

(I am very sorry for not posting for such a long time. Kilelicus, your post is almost done, but after you pointed out to me that I haven't posted in the span of nearly a month, I understood the gravity of my actions. This is to keep this RP alive. Expect your post soon though.)
Firestorm Citadel

Takoizu watched as the demonic skull floated about, watching it slowly bob up and down as she thought about whether or not she should divulge The Higher Power and her mission to it. It

was personal experience that taught her that everyone had a goal at any given time and more often than not, there was a good chance there would be a conflict of interests between any

given two people. Of course on the other hand, there was a chance that this skull was merely curious, or even might help them through the citadel. Besides, at this point in time, Takoizu

doubted that this skull could fight and defeat both her and The Higher Power. With that in mind, Takoizu let out an inaudible sigh before coming to the decision to speak with the skull.

"Actually, we're here on other business. We're just passing through to see a foe that lies beyond the Firestorm Citadel.", Takoizu calmly explained to the

floating skull as she watched it float about.





Rooftops - Santa Cruz - California | Night

After Koishi told Isaac about how difficult it would be to confront Malthael, he simply remained silent as he tried to come up with an idea to give them an advantage over their enemy.

Unfortunately, nothing came to mind. The fact of the matter was that Malthael was definitely strong enough to easily kill Koishi, Shadow and Isaac off, and the undead didn't make things

any easier. if anything, the only thing they could do was waltz right into the lion's den.

"Well, could be worse.", Isaac remarked in a somewhat joking manner, despite the grim circumstances.





Streets of London

As Aisha took off with the others, Jack simply continued on his way down the road and towards the outskirts of the city. He knew that it would take a good long while before he would get

back to The Labs, but at the very least, he could at least try to enjoy the scenery, or meditate on what had happened recently. It didn't really matter which choice he made, he would have

plenty of time to do both.





Armor Technologies Lab - Sector 4 - Prometheus Labs - London

After Raven spoke, Lily turned her gaze over to him as a faint smile creeped along her face.

"Sure, but you might want to prepare yourself. I don't know all the specifics of the armor yet, but if the scientists are right, I'll be the equivalent of a small army.", Lily remarked as the

scientists completed their final diagnostics and stepped back.

"Ok, the armor should be good to go. Just go to testing bay five and we'll begin the trials.", the scientist said to Lily.





Sector 4 - Prometheus Labs - London

"Ahh...", Dr. Neuman said, trailing off at the end.

Dr. Neuman did feel a little bad about what he had put Raven through, but he also felt that Raven acted harshly as well. Perhaps later they could discuss it. For now, it was time to eat,

and right now Dr. Neuman was hungry. With the thoughts of eating a nice warm meal after a hard day's work in mind, Dr. Neuman made his way toward the Mess Hall with Chung, keeping

somewhat quiet as he thought about what had happened earlier with him and Raven.





Xunantunich | Belize

"Got it.", Max said as he did as Ellis requested.

Once the helicopter was in position, Max looked over to Ellis and decided to ask him about the ruins.

"Ok, so what's the plan? Is there anything to worry about in these ruins?"





Bench - Streets of London (Vala's Location)

As Vala wrapped up her conversation with her mentor, a faint glint in the distance from a heavily armored man could be seen in the distance, and from the looks of it, the man was heavily

armed... and walking towards her.

Bench - Streets of London (Vala's Location)


Vala was enjoying the weather when she noticed someone walking towards her, said person was in fact an armored man with weaponry, even though the person looked menacing, the blonde wasn´t rattled at all, even more, she smiled "Looks like you got someone´s attention blondie and he looks ready to make some "talk" with you"" Her AI spoke, but she also wasn´t that worried for the brawler´s well being.

"Well then, my expectation ranged from a messenger to a whole squad, but this will do fine" Vala commented still smirking, she looked at the armored man and waved at him, smirk still glued on her face.

Firestorm Citadel


"Oh, you're goin' after those things? I've heard it's been getting pretty rowdy in there, I was wondering if that stuff finally managed to get up. Might make getting through even worse." the skull replied. "Shame I can't really move much beyond here."

A crash against the gates ahead resounded as soon as the skull finished. "Seige Engines and all, you know."


Santa Cruz


"Well, yeah. He could be twenty stories tall and smell of rancid cheese." Koishi replied, a small chuckle escaping. The crater was almost right in front of them. It went down, and down, as undead climbed the walls, sometime knocking one another aside in their mad scramble to the surface. Large cracks oozing a hot blue liquid illuminated the entire crater, and at the bottom was a single form, seemingly collapsed on the ground.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Russia

"Wow sounds really close to Dark El. Dark El also is something that's both dangerous and can grant power. It can come in many forms from what I saw. Too much exposure to Dark El can literally turn one into a physical demon hellbent on causing mayhem and destruction. The demons from where I come from must be going crazy over this Phazon stuff due to how similar it is to Dark El. Wouldn't be surprised now if the demons were wanting to go after the Dark El." Replied Elesis as she lifted her blade over her shoulder, cracking her neck a little before turning to Samus.

"You know now that I think about it, if these demons are after this Phazon stuff, I'm after the demons, and you are trying to stop this Phazon. Then mind if I join you? If my hunch is correct we might end up running into each other in the future. So maybe if we just join forces we could by chance deal with this threat far better than we could separately."


Rooftops - Santa Cruz - California | Night

Shadow just scowled as he managed to unsurprisingly thanks to his speed and agility, keep up with Koishi and Isaac. He wasn't going to say any snide or crude joking remark about the situation at hand. After all currently the current problem is far more dangerous than it seemed judging by how the duo he is with is talking, it seems that this guy is quite dangerous...

"Would you to try and be more focused on the task at hand?" Shadow replied in a rather harsh, yet calm tone of voice as he kept up with the others. "From what you guys are saying this being is a serious threat. One that should not be taken lightly, nor joked about. Now is there any possible weaknesses that could be exploited? I'd like to deal with this man before things get far too dangerous."



Armor Technologies Lab - Sector 4 - Prometheus Labs - London

Raven smirked and chuckled a bit as he began prepping his Nasod Arm for their upcoming sparring match.

"Please. I've been training for the past 3 months to get used to this arm. I may not be familiar with all the upgrades the guys in the lab gave it, but right now I feel ready for just about anything. Besides as an ex-member of the Crow Mercenaries, one has to be trained to be ready for anything. I'll be ready for a little sparring match once your done testing that new suit. Though I will be needing a sparring sword of sorts. I'll never fight without a weapon that I can't physically hold. So just give me a sword and I'll be ready." Raven said as he clenched the fist on his Nasod Arm, with the sound of something clicking coming from it could be audibly heard. It was the sounds of the inner mechanisms getting prepped and loaded for Raven's sparring match against Lily.

He then turned to the scientist and spoke up.


"By the way do you guys have a blade I could use for sparring purposes? I would really prefer to use one, and if so could it possibly not be some foam sword or something? At least something that could handle a fight against a spartan preferably."




Prometheus Labs - London

"Yeah... that is just like the one topic you don't want to mess with when it comes to Raven. He tends to sort of go into a 'Oh dear god I need to do something quick' mode like he has one of the biggest adrenaline rushes for someone of his caliber. Never really seen him react so violently though. Then again never really even seen anyone joke about that kind of stuff in front of Raven. Either way you now know not to mess with Raven. Next time it might be more than a kick to the groin... I'd hate to see what that Nasod Arm of his could do to the human body... sheesh..." Chung spoke as they walked side by side, trying to keep up a conversation as they approached the entrance to the Mess Hall.



Chris and Claire's Living Quarters - Prometheus Labs

It had been quite a bit of time by now as Chris and Six were waiting for Claire to get done wit her shower, and before Chris could even start a conversation Claire entered the room dressed in very comfortable clothes for the night, a towel around her neck, and her hair slightly damp. Aside from that Claire was looking awfully nervous and bashful, especially towards Six. For it seemed like she was trying to avoid eye contact with him.

"Okay I'm... I'm done... it's also time for my gift for you Six... it's going to be quite the surprise though... So be warned..." Claire spoke in an oddly quiet and shy tone of voice which is unlike her, and despite saying it's time for Six's present, she is lacking any material object in her hands at all.



Kawashiro Residency | Kappa Village, Gensokyo

Tails in a bit of a panic quick began to explain the situation.

"Okay... Uh... Me and Ms. Mitori were down trying to use her vehicle to try and lift my crashed plane so we could bring it here for repairs. However my plane was a little bit too heavy for it... so... well... we were wondering if the one known as Nitori could possibly help? Also things are really creepy down there. It's quiet. Like... too quiet. Normally there would be the sounds of birds or some sort of wildlife even in the Winter, but there seems to be not so much as a sound. We could hear our own breathing. Really creepy, and we are seriously wanting to know if Nitori could help us!"



Apartment Complex | Barcelona, Spain

Ciel was beginning to go into a panic as he tried to get his mistress to wake, yet everything he was doing was not working. Worried Ciel began checking her pulse which was fine, followed by her breathing which was also fine... just to make sure it wasn't something stupid like a fever that was causing her to remain unconscious, he took his hand and swept some of her hair away from her forehead. That was when he placed his forehead against her forehead to check for a fever or anything like that. However as his forehead touched Lu's, the Demon Lord's eyes shot open. At first Lu wasn't so sure as to what was happening but after seeing Ciel's face practically right up against hers, she immediately shot a death glare at Ciel. Said glare caused Ciel to immediately break into a nervous sweat as he began to try and back away from his mistress.

Unfortunately he was too late, for Lu had quickly got onto her feet and summoned one of her weapons. A large demonic gauntlet that is surging with a strange blue energy. Then with one swift angered punch to the gut, Ciel was sent flying through the apartment, past Kongou, and out onto the balcony. He continued to fly through the air until he struck the railing on the balcony. Hitting the balcony caused him to break out into a wild spin as he flew through the air and into a lamp post just outside the apartment with a loud crack coming from Ciel's body as he impacted the steel lamp post outside.



Xunantunich | Belize

As Volnutt was waiting for the others to drop down with a smile on his face, something caught his attention. Out of the corner of his eye he could have swore he saw a small... about 3 ft tall, bipedal... thing dart out from behind one rock and further into the darkness with the sound of very small metal footsteps echoing faintly throughout the cave clearing. Despite Volnutt's urge to go see what that little... thing was, the sound of the Scout yelling from the Helicopter broke him out of his trance.


"Hey could you hurry it up! I'm dyin' to get down and explore those damn caves already!" He yelled obviously tired of having to wait in the Helicopter for so long, he was really getting bored of just doing practically nothing for the past few hours...


((Okay re-posting this AGAIN!!!))
Voile

And just like Patchouli said, Kirby was not killed by the volt of electricity he took head on.

After a few seconds of twitching, the blackened - due to being burned by electricity - Kirby sat back up. Still a little dazed by the electrical volt he experienced just now, he tried to look around but only say blurry blobs around him. That is when Kirby literally shook the char off his body before standing back up.

Noticing that Marx and Magolor escaped Kirby looked a little upset. Turning around to face Koakuma and Patchouli he began to try and question them about what happened to Marx and Magolor.

"Ah! Poyo!?" He spoke in a child-like manner as he began gesturing to the location he last saw the two villains from his world at.
