(RP) Legion Of Man - Chapter 2 (#2)

Chapter 2 (Prologue): After totally trashing the penthouse apartment, your group has been under intensive training with your servants. Miriam has ordered her personel to work with you tirelessly, almost as if she's preparing you for an upcoming event. Since then the apartment has been fully repaired and this has been your lifestyle for the past week now.

But your schedule has quickly changed. Miriam has urgently summoned you to her private workshop across the city. You and the others have been gathered up as fast as possible, arriving there by limousine. Your group is also accompanied by several SUV's. Clearly whatever she wants the group for is very important.

You all arrive at your destination, a large ass area with several warehouses. Her personel quickly guide and escort you to the workshop, the largest warehouse in the entire lot. Once inside you see that it is incredibly well furnished in a mechanical and engineering sense, with lots of wires and tubes cluttering walls. There are giant batteries, engines, capsules, conveyor belts and other sorts of machinery with functions you are unable to understand. Miriam and a crowd of personel remain in the center of the warehouse, awaiting your presence.

Chatting and Interaction Rules:

- Roleplaying must be done in first person. You are your character, you are not controlling your character. Example: I ask the man further, "Just exactly what are you hiding?" my hand tucked into my shirt pocket.

- All meta-speak/out of character speak must be done in [square brackets]. Example: I casually throw my fist towards the man. [Am I fast enough to actually touch him @ProfessorLord?]

- One action or command at a time. You can make your actions long and lengthy, but ultimately limit yourself to just one action. Example: I reach out, trying to grab a hold of the woman... NOT: I reach out and grab the woman, while also shooting the man grabbing her in the face. The only exception is talking, you can talk more than once in a post.

- Don't force your actions onto other players, always ATTEMPT to attack a character or an enemy, never force the result on them. Example: I grab my sword, thrusting it towards the ma... this is okay, it gives the GM (me) or another player character a chance to react, if possible, what's not okay is: I grab my sword and stab the man in the chest... you just forced the result of your action onto him, regardless if he was bulletproof or something of the sort. The only exception to this rule is fodder characters, you are allowed to force your actions on fodder characters, so long as the result is logical and feasible.

- YOU and every single character is subject to death at any second. Play smart, not dumb. If you want to play for as long as possible, I'd suggest your character imitate how you would really act. There is consequences for blatantly being ********.


Playing Times:

There will be certain times when I will inform the whole thread that we as a whole are taking a break. I will make this very clear and obvious. Once a break has been declared, any discussion or actions will not be acknowledged, so please refrain from posting. I will let you know once we have resumed. These breaks will usually only last a few hours or so, and I'll only employ them when there's a lot of player characters who are unactive, so they can get caught up. Furthermore, once this chapter has been concluded, it will take a day or two before I create another thread.

For those interested in joining the game, go to the registration thread.

[You can do anything you want. You do not need to ask me for permission, just make sure it's in line with the chat interaction rules.]
Unbenknowst to your characters, several armed men are on way to your location. They are less than a minute away from you.

Snake whispers, "Yeah, great idea. Fifteen people in a ventilation system, that'll show them."
[You are currently deeper into the facility. There was a group of guards turning around the corner, so Edward knocked them out in an effort to remain unnoticed. Unfortunately they were on the radio, and the person on the other line began asking them questions. He used Lemon Bread to ask in a fake voice but they began asking for ID numbers. Guards are less than a minute away. The idea of escaping through the ventilation was just tossed around.]
 
The grate to the ventilation is heavily tightened; you're going to need something strong to open it up.

[Yes, though they were incinerated I'll assume there are weapons for you to pick up.]
 
I quickly whisper yell to snake "Wake up the kid! He can open the grate if i remember what he can do correctly!"
 
[I'll take them.] I pick up one of the guns to shoot the ventilation several times. [The guns are assault rifles, right?]

[don't pls. there are guards like 20 seconds away.]

Unsurprisingly, the ventilation grate gives in to the force of the assault rifle. It exposes the ventilation shaft for you; not a whole lot of room but it'll work in a pinch.

Unfortunately, the reinforcements who are a distance away around the corner are more aware of your exact location. You can hear heavy footsteps.

[No retcon >:3]
 
I whisper yell "Get lemon bread to shoot at them them run off to distract them." to Edward before motioning for everyone to climb into the vent
 
"Hah..."

Hearing the reinforcement coming, I shoot at them from behind cover with the homing concussion bullet earlier, knocking them out.
 
Everyone proceeds to climb into the ventilation vent. Lemon Bread takes the initiative and hops around the corner, shooting at the men in order to hold them off. Lemon Bread, however, beginst to demanifest. The men look around confused but proceed around the corner to find...

Nobody? They look around puzzled before quickly continuing down the hall.

...

"Not the best idea... but I guess it works." Snake replies. He sits at the front-most part of the shaft.

The entire facility begins to rumble and shake.

"We don't have much time, follow!" Snake orders the group.

...

You crawl and crawl around in empty darkness for what seems like forever now, following Snake. "Damn!" he whispers before pausing entirely.

You can hear noise and other conversatio in the room below you:

"... of this world have already inflitrated the island. They're using some sort of spritual manifestations of the lost worlds in order to achieve their sick goal." you hear from a familiar female voice.

"To make matters worse my lord... they've already taken out scarecrow. They were about to put me down too, had scarecrow not incapacitated them." you now recognize it as the short-haired mysterious women from earlier.

The female voice pauses and begins to sob, "My lord... I'm scared. I can't be strong anymore. I want to go home. I want to see my parents again. I don't want to die." the women pleads.
 
"Wait, isn't that the woman who killed me? Well, technically she didn't because it was just a hallucination but still!" I comment.
 
"Really? I thought it'd be way thicker." I say before telling everyone to either get back in the vent or very far away in the room itself
 
Jeffery pulls out the same communication device he first used when you entered this world. He presses a button.

You hear a powerful, mysterious voice echo a reply to the women,

"Najenda..."

"Your pure and utter loyalty to the cause has moved me beyond words. I am sorry I have brought you into this mess, someone like yourself should be at rest... but we are doing gods work!"


Najenda sobs back, "M-my lord..."

The mysterious figure interrupts her, "Aahaah... It is alright. This is your last task, listen to me Najenda. This artifact is instrumental to god. We are doing gods work. If we cannot serve even god, we cannot serve ourselves. Collect it and bring it to us... and I will take you home."

"Y-yes... my lord."

"I love you, Najenda."


Then everything goes silent for a moment. You hear sounds of a door opening, and more men enter in the room below. They ask the women if there is anything wrong. She tells them no, and proceeds to leave the room with them.
 
"Shit." i think to myself "Now i feel bad for trying to set her on fire."

"Well there goes my plan i guess." to say to snake
 
"Okay, whoever that mysterious figure is, he obviously have the nuke jewel with him right now. Should we follow him?"
 
[Depends on the explosion entirely. If they were to supercharge the key it would most definitely destroy the entirety of Shadow Moses Island, so probably no to 6-C explosions. I'd reckon your upper limit is around 7-C explosions.]
 
[i kinda imagined you wouldn't let me basically nullify the whole time element, but good to know, since 7-C is around nuke level iirc (really only helps for thermobaric nukes but still)]
 
[Um could I please be reawakened? I heard from a pal that someone already tried to reawaken me, but due to my inactivity it failed. I had to deal with some IRL shit involving family so I was unable to utilize my phone. I apologize if this was inconvenient to any of y'all]
 
[Kay]

"I mean we could follow him, but seems more wise to involve not the whole group. Because he could easily whip that shit out on us and we'd all go commit the die, and considering the dubious status of the afterlife, go committing the die is not something we'd wanna do" I say
 
"I'm sure you all heard that." Snake comments, only for Jeffery to reply with "You think? More importantly..." he says while fiddling with the communication device of some sort, "I got that all of that on record."

"That's the women we were fighting. I guess that conversation proves she's not working with the government... that's why the alarms weren't activated after our fight." Snake pauses for a moment. "But this means we have less time than I thought. We don't have any time left, our goal is to retrieve that key ASAP."

The group, in agreement, proceeds to crawl away through the ventilation shaft.

...

Eventually, you reach what seems to be the end of the shaft. "It's time to drop." Snake says, before removing the grate beneath him and dropping down into the room. He waits for everyone else to drop.

When you first drop into the room the first thing that becomes abundantly clear is the thick smell of gasoline. Looking around reveals a bunch of various machinery, engines, batteries etc. The only thing illuminating the area is the emergency lights. There is two exits, one to the western side of the room and one to the eastern side of the room.

The ground begins to shake once more.

Snake confronts the group: "Damn... My intel doesn't go any further than this. We need to make a decision, where do we go?"
 
"why don't we split up?" I enquire,

"I mean if you got two exits, and you don't know which one the bearer of a literal NUKE TIER explosive went down, divvy the group and go down both, then when one of us finds the thing, we tell the other group, and we recombine. It's quite literally simple AF. Don't know which way the terrorist went? Just split up the group, divide and conquer. I mean I'm surprised a literal WAR VETERAN doesn't know about that..."

[Sorry bout the assholery, Jayden's thing is when he points out something obvious that no one else pointed out, he likes to Lord it over others and be a general dick bout how he pointed out some shit that no one else did...]
 
"Hmmm is there any sort of interface that we could hack into and check whats down each hall way?" I say looking around for an electronic interface.

[This is both a meta and in game question]
 
"Dude we got an entire island boutta incur the boom boom, unless it's a simple action that takes a few secs, spending our already very little time ain't gonna really do the island any favors. I mean unless the process IS fast and simple, because then we WOULD want to do that to unearth the location of the boom boom bearer, so yeah... Is it fast? Cuz if is THEN do it, but if ain't then do it not"
 
[i have a feeling that Jayden is going to end up getting shot by one of us at some point tbh]

"Not the worst idea, but if we encounter that guy once we split up then we're probably screwed, if we wouldn't be regardless." i say, walking up to the wall between the 2 doors and knocking on it to try to tell, rather inaccurately, how thick it is.
 
"Well going down the wrong hallway could get us all killed or lost and peronally id rather not deal with either right now"
 
[that's kinda the whole point of his character, dude's a dick that has no talents other than writing edgy poetry and hipthrow NG, yet because of his Servant he can **** over whatever normie he wants and come out on top. Eventually he gonna get the real pain and learn to be less of an arrogant **** bout his billities...]

"We could just easily give each group a few OP guys and a few nonOP guys as to ensure balance, it's stupid to have a whole team of our best guys go down one exit, only for our weakass guys to go down the other and get boomboomed, yaknow?"
 
"Look around" Snake orders. "It's all mechanical engineering. There's no electronics in sight."

Snake also turns to Jayden. "Not a bad idea." he says, walking over to the boy. He grabs him by his shirt collar and proceeds to toss him down the western exit. He ragdolls and tumbles down the hallway.

"Let's split up. My team, except Jayden, will leave through the eastern exit." Snake looks at Jeffery, "You guys are going to take Jayden and travel down the western hall. You're looking for a lab enviornment of some sort. That's where they're holding the key."

"I've hacked into Jeffery's coms already, just give us a shout if you found the room, and vice versa."
