[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Lord Windos]

Seddi braces himself as the very ground quakes beneath everyone! 

But after all is said and done, he smirks.  His plan worked.  Now for Part 2:  Recall his partners and vamoose with the goods!  He signals Fortuna to drop Darren off with him.  Time for everyone to leave!

"Akamu, start runnin'!  Sorry, Flutter Mane, but you lose.  Glinda, Teleport!  Get me, Darren and that critter's Pokeball outta here!"

If Flutter Mane is no longer in the vicinity, then maybe the magic will stop.  He'll have to come back for Akamu once Darren's been delivered safely to the Center.

''Take.. me.. away.. Ecclesia.., as.. far... as. you. can... get..''

To clarifying what I stated earlier: that animosity and now the HATEFUL Entity it helped spawn did NOT come from Flutter Mane. Well, not since She was caught. The Ultra Ball Containing Her has been completely inert the entire time you saw it. nothing going in or out. If you focused on it for just a moment, though -

AH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAAAAAHAHHHHAAAHHHHAAAAAAAA   I   S E E    Y  O  U    :  ) 

You feel yourself throw up a little as you forcibly closed down your TS Sense. Oh hell no you are not dealing with HER with a feeler on your Line! Simultaneously you could feel Iron Leaves prepared to use her version of Heal Bell, but stops once you got it under control, much to her immense relief.

As you recall all your Pokemon...

Loyalty: (2)(2)(5)
Disobedience: (6)(5)(5)(5)(6) That's a fuck you from -

Kusanagi, as she REJECTS your Recall attempt and continues 'glaring' at the HATEFUL MAW, giving you a rude and derisive bark that all but said 'You go, I'm staying for my GLORIOUS Fight..

You don't have the chance to object to her decision - Glinda, reading the situation and knowing that things would only get worse, telekinetically YANKED you and Darren to her side. With a solemn nod to the old otter -

Teleport
*Rolls*

- You, her, and Darren are all at the Pokemon Center Oz went to rally. IMMEDIATELY Nurses and Doctors pour out to rush your fuzzy friend into the ER, with a couple stick around to give you (Seddi) a comprehensive check up and urging you to check into care as well. With Kusanagi stuck back there with Akamu and the HATEFUL Maw, though....you may not want to stick around.

The Good Witch departs from your side, telekinetically grabbing Fortuna's Ball as she makes her way over to Oz, who was anxiously standing by the Center's Entrance....

-----

Back with Akamu and Samurrott , the former and his Sea Drake were going full peddle to GET AWAY from that...that....abominable Cursed THING, while the later stood ready, grim determined excitement plastered all across its snout. 


The HATEFUL Maw screamed and belowed and ROARED, furious, mad, angry, hate, upset, HATE, irate, HATE HATE HATE that THE ONE had vanished , the very sand vibrating like crazy and sending great gouts of it into the air, staining it a faint red-pink. 

It FOCUSED its baleful ATTENTION on the only TARGETS left for its FATHOMLESS HATE.

Dozens of new tentacles, dripping with foul HATE and Curses, sprang up from the HATEFUL Maw, all of them coiling together and stretching back.....to target Akamu.

Before that could happened, however, Kusanagi slammed forward to intercept it with her helm's sword, a hateful yet mocking grin of her own as she meet the HATEFUL's Maws Accursed Tangled Strike in.....

CLASH - EXTRA LETHAL CEASELESS EDGE VS A.T.S. !
Special Clash - Roll Damage vs Damage to Determine Winner
Kusanagi's Damage: STR (*2) + 3 + TRIPLE STAB (Stubborn Old Coot + F.W.T.B.) + Sharpness (2) + SE (1) = 12D6 + 1 Damage
A.D.H.M.'s Damage: STR (5) + 5 + STAB (1) - IE = 11D6 - 1 Damage

(3)(6)(4)(4)(5)(6) (2)(4)(6)(1)(4)(3) + 1  vs (2)(3)(5)(1)(5) (6)(1)(4)(6)(3) (2) - 2
9 Successes vs 3 Successes

Kusanagi slices the bundle of tentacles CLEAN THROUGH, Critically Winning the Clash! Due to Sharpness and the Crit, the Tentacle is DESTROYED and RIDDLED with CRUEL SPIKES, which then falls directly into the HATEFUL Maw, causing It to YELL in P a i n  and start chocking on said Dark Spikes !!

#!%$^%$*%^ HATE HATE HATE PAIN HATEHHAHATHAHTAHTHAHTAHTHEHAHTHEHAHETHAEHT   (*&()*^*(&$%^&#(@!!!!!!!

Oh boy. If it weren't pissed before,  It SURE is now!

Then, everyone there heard something laugh, and looked over to where it came from.

Damn it all, for a Gengar drifted into the Hidden Ring, having been drawn by the M.C.'s and the delicious feeling of FEAR, CHAOS, and HATE that was festering so WONDERFULLY here. And judging by the fact it had Three Bright Red and Glowing Eyes and was three times as big as usual for its species....this was a Overgrown Alpha Gengar.

Fuck fuck FUCK!!!

The Big Spook laughed as it saw everyone's apprehension as it floated closer, eager to get in on all the FUN that was happening....!

- and is aburptly stopped as it is promptly Caught by two Tentacles that emerge from the FURIOUSLY HATEFUL MAW , detecting something within its radius and automatically LASHING OUT.

The look of surprise and 'Oh shit' on its face would be comical, were it not for it swiftly being replaced by horror and dread as it's dragged right in. 

* C   H   O   M   P   *

The very earth convulses as the A.D.H.M.  made a meal out of the O.A.H.  , the already sickening and nauseating HATE and Cursed Energy that was drenching the Hidden Ring thickening to the point of visibly manifesting as a soupy, sticky, and AWFUL feeling miasma.

*Rumble*
*Rumble*
*R U M B L E*

Something was happening with the HATEFUL Maw.

Slowly, the pit started to rise up into the air, like a Tower of Ruin.

It was at this point that Kusanagi, who's blood thirst was finally overcome by just how this situation had escalated to the absolute extreme , decided in spite of its Wishes that some Deaths were just NOT worth the Consequences and flees right after Akamu, who and his trusty draconic stead had already made great progress in getting THE HELL away from this Nightmare Encounter.

Fortunately the HATEFUL MAW(??????) was too busying Transforming to react, letting out a downright E V I L   and M A N I C A L  LAUGH FILLED WITH PURE AND UTTER [u]H  A  T  E[/u]

Encounter Over:  A New Hate Filled Curse Daemon has been BORN.

+ 7 XP for Bern; + 3 XP for Zephy and + 7 XP for Nox and Nirix.

Eventually Bern (@PhantomUnderYourDesk) is able to locate and enter a Center to try and secure help for the Situation, but by then its already too late - he's notified that the rest of the group got the aid of the Center Oz found, and Rangers/Police/Military are already mobilizing to deal with Whatever Remains.

Akamu and his Dragon (+ Kusi , who unerringly tracks and follows them without once getting lost) makes their way to the same Center everyone else but Bern is at - let's just say Oz texted the location to them. This will be roughly ~10 - 20 minutes of travel, which is somewhat meaningless mechanically but RPwise it gives Seddi time to worry/React about Kusanagi straight up Disobeying and staying to Fight that MONSTER.

Darren is in ICU, as is his Solena - Current prognosis is hopeful yet still grim. The princess in particular needs more specialized care for their More Than Lethal wounds too.

Current Scene - Akamu being carted into the Center with his grisly yet SLOWLY healing Lethal wounds on top of Ecclessia, who is looking very tired and yet ready to pound whatever gets in her way into gravy . Kusanagi enters just a beat behind them, visibly tired yet undaunted and perfectly composed, satisfaction and irritation warring over her scarred, blinded visage. Seddi and the rest of the group can either be waiting for them, or with Darren as they watch over them. One of the group could also be taking to a Ranger/Officer about the situation too, if they want to put up with them.
