Charlotte shook her head. She closed her eyes again, blocking off most of her senses as she simply focused on the geometry of the place itself. She ignored the bones, ignored the people, ignored everything. Focusing entirely on moving forward.

Tarak stared blankly at the hole.

"...Will Tarak get to kill cultists?" Tarak asked blankly.

"...Tarak thought the beast, and Charlotte would go with the shadow one, while Tarak killed something else..." Tarak said. Slight confusion in his voice.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(Who are the ones who are ahead or behind in the group that is in the hole?)

 

[azontr]

(Who are the ones who are ahead or behind in the group that is in the hole?)

(In the hole: Charlotte, Relama, Skarr, Timcanpy, Phares, Kentoria, Valkiria, Brownie. Out of the hole: Everyone who isn't the people I listed.)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Brownie was behind everyone to protect if they were attacked from behind, while tuning his senses to see if he could feel, see or hear something important

 

[azontr]

At the end of the hallway of cells they could hear the movement and clanking of heavy armor and weaponry, clearly searching for the group.

"Alright... who wants to go first...?" Valkiria murmured, holding her axe with her eyes still closed.

Charlotte shook her head. She closed her eyes again, blocking off most of her senses as she simply focused on the geometry of the place itself. She ignored the bones, ignored the people, ignored everything. Focusing entirely on moving forward.

Tarak stared blankly at the hole.

"...Will Tarak get to kill cultists?" Tarak asked blankly.

"...Tarak thought the beast, and Charlotte would go with the shadow one, while Tarak killed something else..." Tarak said. Slight confusion in his voice.

"You'll probably have to go into the hole if you wanna kill cultists..." Adrian murmured with crossed arms, "I don't think anybody is coming out... I... I've got a bad feeling about this."

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Don't worry, anything Elis could teleport everyone who is close to Timcanpy like she said in Neptune, Right Elis?" Rex said, who was worrying but tried to stay calm

 

[DaReaperMan]

"... I have a bad feeling about this..." Kentoria whispered, moving back to secure the group's escape

Relama nodded, trying to stick with the group along with Skarr

"S-so do I...!" Olorin murmured, Talandar beginning to pace

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

At the end of the hallway of cells they could hear the movement and clanking of heavy armor and weaponry, clearly searching for the group.

"Alright... who wants to go first...?" Valkiria murmured, holding her axe with her eyes still closed.

"…They already know where here...?" Charlotte thought. She cursed under her breath, shaking her head.

Slowly, she moved forward, hugging the wall as she inched closer to the soldiers. Her fists were clenched, her Spatial Awareness honing on the shapes approaching them.

Should one of the soldiers enter the hallway, she'd immediately strike, her fist aimed towards their head. Not losing momentum, she attempts to grab them by the neck, silently choking them as she moves back to the wall, out of sight of the entrance.

"You'll probably have to go into the hole if you wanna kill cultists..." Adrian murmured with crossed arms, "I don't think anybody is coming out... I... I've got a bad feeling about this."

Tarak nodded. Slowly, he began moving his way to the hole. He grabbed a club from his back, holding it tightly as he neared it.

 

[azontr]

"Don't worry, anything Elis could teleport everyone who is close to Timcanpy like she said in Neptune, Right Elis?" Rex said, who was worrying but tried to stay calm

"I can..." Elis murmured, "I can teleport them out, yeah..."

"…They already know where here...?" Charlotte thought. She cursed under her breath, shaking her head.

Slowly, she moved forward, hugging the wall as she inched closer to the soldiers. Her fists were clenched, her Spatial Awareness honing on the shapes approaching them.

Should one of the soldiers enter the hallway, she'd immediately strike, her fist aimed towards their head. Not losing momentum, she attempts to grab them by the neck, silently choking them as she moves back to the wall, out of sight of the entrance.

Valkiria and the grey-haired soldier moved forward as well, Charlotte's first strike having knocked out the first soldier while the grey-haired soldier swiftly cut the throat of the next soldier that came in, moving the body into one of the cells.

"H...e...l...p... m...." In one of the cells, a woman called out to Charlotte, pinned to the wall by a spear with her bottom half barely hanging from her top half by her intestines.

Tarak nodded. Slowly, he began moving his way to the hole. He grabbed a club from his back, holding it tightly as he neared it.

"Tarak- Where the hell are you going!?" Elis said as quiet as she could.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(who knows sign language in the group?)

 

[azontr]

(who knows sign language in the group?)

(Just assume everyone does lol.)

 

[Dragoonseraphim]

Phares moved forward along with the others. His movements were silent and cautious as he watched the others deal with the first few guards. So they already know about us. I’ll need to adjust my strategies then. He thinks to himself.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Brownie looked at this with indifference, it was really to be expected that they would witness something like this, but that did not mean that the beast had no mercy.

Slowly, Brownie approached PX and made a couple of signs referring to whether they should or not get the poor people out of that torment, even if it is through Elimination.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"Tarak- Where the hell are you going!?" Elis said as quiet as she could.

Tarak glanced at Elis. Slowly, he made his way towards her, his bones creaking audibly.

"...To kill cultists." He said blankly.

Valkiria and the grey-haired soldier moved forward as well, Charlotte's first strike having knocked out the first soldier while the grey-haired soldier swiftly cut the throat of the next soldier that came in, moving the body into one of the cells.

"H...e...l...p... m...." In one of the cells, a woman called out to Charlotte, pinned to the wall by a spear with her bottom half barely hanging from her top half by her intestines.

For a moment, Charlotte froze. her eyes opening as she stared at the women. Dropping the soldier in one of the cells. She slowly approached her. Her body trembled as she walked toward the injured woman. For a moment, she said nothing.

Gently, she put a hand on the women's shoulder. She took a shaky breath...

before placing her fist against her head. Before the woman could react, Charlotte launched a gentle blow against the side of her head, pressing a pressure point on her body. The force would travel through her brain...killing her instantly and painlessly.

 

[DaReaperMan]

Kentoria swiftly got back to the group, closing her eyes upon sight of the woman, Skarr immediately covering Valkiria's eyes so she didnt see the blood and go insane

"P-please...! Get that ready...!" Olorin said in an extremely worried tone to Elis

Slowly, Brownie approached PX and made a couple of signs referring to whether they should or not get the poor people out of that torment, even if it is through Elimination.

"It seems... Ms. Charlotte is already taking care of that..." The grey-haired soldier said, breathing out.

Tarak glanced at Elis. Slowly, he made his way towards her, his bones creaking audibly.

"...To kill cultists." He said blankly.

Kentoria swiftly got back to the group, closing her eyes upon sight of the woman, Skarr immediately covering Valkiria's eyes so she didnt see the blood and go insane

"P-please...! Get that ready...!" Olorin said in an extremely worried tone to Elis

"No your not...! It's probably a trap!" Elis exclaimed.

"They haven't been attacked yet... We can wait it out and see..." Adrian murmured, seeing a blur move past him and into the hole.

For a moment, Charlotte froze. her eyes opening as she stared at the women. Dropping the soldier in one of the cells. She slowly approached her. Her body trembled as she walked toward the injured woman. For a moment, she said nothing.

before placing her fist against her head. Before the woman could react, Charlotte launched a gentle blow against the side of her head, pressing a pressure point on her body. The force would travel through her...killing her instantly and painlessly.

The woman did indeed die painlessly... Had she had enough time to react, and had she been alive, she would've smiled and thanked Charlotte, but, she died with a look of unbearable agony and despair on her face, her lifeless body slipping from the spear that held her to the wall and falling into a pile of her own blood and guts.

 

[Dragoonseraphim]

Phares remained looking down the hall in case more soldiers came. He felt horrible that he couldn’t do anything for the woman but he knew that he had a job to do and couldn’t get distracted.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Brownie sighed, trying to be alert to see if the disappearance of the woman a guard would come, after all she was asking for help and if someone would notice the small change

 

[DaReaperMan]

"Elis, tell Timcanpy they've got company...!" Olorin said, also seeing the blur

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

After see the Blur Rex said

"What was missing, we will have to see if something else comes, not only to them but also to our location" Rex said, being alert if something approached them

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

Charlotte said nothing, simply staring at the corpse of the woman she had killed. Her gaze landed on her face, the despair and agony permanently sketched on her lifeless form. Slowly, she looked away.

"...Let's keep moving." Charlotte murmured. Her expression was hard, her gaze cold as she approached the end of the hallway.

"No your not...! It's probably a trap!" Elis exclaimed.

"They haven't been attacked yet... We can wait it out and see..." Adrian murmured, seeing a blur move past him and into the hole.

"....A trap...?" Tarak asked. He turned around suddenly, noticing the blur move into the hole.

"...Was...that part of this...trap?" Tarak said.

 

[azontr]

"On it...!" Elis said to Olorin.

"Charlotte, something is coming. And not from the enem-" Timcanpy was cut off by something stabbing into an incoming guard and then another.

"******* die... die... die...!!"

"Girl? Did you steal that sword and armor?" The grey-haired soldier said as Seraphina growled, stabbing into the cultists corpse with her stolen blade and continuing to attract attention.

 

[DaReaperMan]

Kentoria immediately got ready for combat, snarling a little as Skarr began to unshesthe his blade and Relama began to shift back

 

[azontr]

"What's going on down there!?" Elis telepathically asked Timcanpy.

"Seraphina stole weapons and is attracting attention." Timcanpy responded.

"WHAT!?" Elis shouted out loud.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"On it...!" Elis said to Olorin.

"Charlotte, something is coming. And not from the enem-" Timcanpy was cut off by something stabbing into an incoming guard and then another.

"******* die... die... die...!!"

"Girl? Did you steal that sword and armor?" The grey-haired soldier said as Seraphina growled, stabbing into the cultists corpse with her stolen blade and continuing to attract attention.

"The hell-" Charlotte said. Quickly, she moved behind Seraphina, wrapping an arm around her waist and lifting her off the ground.

"...Chill the **** out, your gonna bring the whole base to us at this rate!" Charlotte hissed.

 

[azontr]

"The hell-" Charlotte said. Quickly, she moved behind Seraphina, wrapping an arm around her waist and lifting her off the ground.

"...Chill the **** out, your gonna bring the whole base to us at this rate!" Charlotte hissed.

"The mission is compromised. I hear machinery... I deduce that it is a vehicle. Or twenty. We need to depart, now." Timcanpy said to Charlotte telepathically, the sound of engines revving up echoing throughout the base.

"Let me go-! Let me go!!!" Seraphina shouted, thrashing around violently.

 

[DaReaperMan]

"Get us out of here Elis, we're compromised!" Kentoria said, assuming Timcanpy would transmit her voice to Elis while Olorin began visibly panicking

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"God ******* DAMN IT." Charlotte cursed. She held the girl tightly in her grip, preventing her from escaping.

"...Oi, we gotta leave. NOW." Charlotte shouted at the group. Immediately, she moved forward, clutching the kid tightly as she teleported to the surface.

 

[Setsuna_tenma]

"Well this went to shit" he thought as he started to leave with the group

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Shit!" Rex cursed as he guessed what was going on.

"stay alert, we will probably have to face thousands of dark cultists" said Rex

---
Brownie looked at Seraphina in disappointment, hoping that even she understood that even her common sense would overcome her Hate but it didn't.

 

[azontr]

"Get us out of here Elis, we're compromised!" Kentoria said, assuming Timcanpy would transmit her voice to Elis while Olorin began visibly panicking

"I'm already on that! **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** **** ****-" Elis said, preparing a teleportation ritual.

"God ******* DAMN IT." Charlotte cursed. She held the girl tightly in her grip, preventing her from escaping.

"...Oi, we gotta leave. NOW." Charlotte shouted at the group. Immediately, she moved forward, clutching the kid tightly as she teleported to the surface.

Valkiria launched herself up, turning away from Seraphina so she couldn't see the blood on her while the grey-haired soldier clicked her tongue and landed on the surface as well.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

Once on the surface, Charlotte whirled on Seraphina, her grip on the girl tightening to painful levels.

"What the HELL were you thinking?" Charlotte hissed.

 

[Noneless21]

"What's wrong?" Says Ryu as he saw the team came back

 

[Setsuna_tenma]

"What's wrong?" Says Ryu as he saw the team came back

"Seraphina stole someones sword and pissed them off" he said.

 

[azontr]

(For the record I hard ****** this situation up so I apologize to anybody bummed or annoyed lol.)

 

[Noneless21]

"Seraphina stole someones sword and pissed them off" he said.

"...She's too reckless..." Says Ryu as he decided to give some help to the retreated team.

 

[azontr]

Elis swiftly finished her teleportation ritual, blood pouring from her nose and tattoo due to the extreme rush she was in as she teleported the group back to the military base.

...

As the group was teleported away, somebody emerged from the hole, breaking through the Earth with his soldiers. The crimson man left his throne, his red pupils shining through the storms of dust and ash.

"...Find them." The crimson man said.

"Yes, master!" The cultists called out.

Once on the surface, Charlotte whirled on Seraphina, her grip on the girl tightening to painful levels.

"What the HELL were you thinking?" Charlotte hissed.

"Damnit... I almost had them..." Seraphina thought, hearing Charlotte's words and having no response, simply dropping her sword and struggling in her grip.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"What was your escape plan if some cultist captured you?!?" Rex asked to Seraphina

 

[azontr]

"What was your escape plan if some cultist captured you?!?" Rex asked to Seraphina

(Wow. This post is actually perfectly timed when it should've been a ninja.)

"I would've killed them..." Seraphina grumbled, breathing out.

 

[The_man_with_the_Midas_touch]

"Damnit... I almost had them..." Seraphina thought, hearing Charlotte's words and having no response, simply dropping her sword and struggling in her grip.

“You ALMOST died. And dragged the rest of us into your damn suicide mission!” Charlotte spat. She dropped the girl onto the ground, breathing heavily.
