Gavin’s breath was coming faster, his heart racing fast enough that it took barely a few moments for his shardblade to fall into his hand. “You aren’t listening!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might just be able to have a life. Maybe not an amazing one, but anything seems amazing to the stuff Ruin has put us through. If this works... Stay with me."

Magi she/her Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 23 hours ago, Ancient Elantrian said: Alderic stood at attention in his armor, beard flowing in the wind dramatically, a pulsing spear in his hand, ready for the signal. He also had a tablet ready, should they need anything. 23 hours ago, Scars of Hathsin said: Benjamin Savage, Somewhere Benjamin stood on the hill with the others, not looking as impressive, but there. Ready to do whatever it took to get his daughter out of there Outside the HG Arena: Sharlin pushed through the undergrowth, leading their combined forces down to the entrance she'd spied out just a few days ago. It was small, and would take time to get everybody inside, but it would work. She came to a small clearing in the forest, negative space between trees, really. She bent over, having the exact spot already memorized, and started pushing aside leaves and dirt. Otherwise completely camouflaged by the surrounding bushes, she revealed a small doorway. It was only around 4 feet wide sat at an angle on the ground, more of a trap door really. "Tadaaaaah!!!" Sharlin stood and turned with a flourish, gesturing at the dull metal hatch. "Told you guys I knew where it was!" @The Bookwyrm 2 hours ago, Edema Rue said: “Good of you to finally realize it,” Gavin growls, his blade dissolving to mist. GM HQ: The explosions had stopped. The dust was beginning to settle. Victory was clear. But the day was not over. Sharanna had to remind herself that. No, if they were going to do this, then she would finish it. Completely and entirely. She lead a large group of men down into the belly of the building, approaching the one part they hadn't take yet. The safe room--or rooms, Sharanna didn't really know--that they GM's remained trapped inside. No doubt they were planning something, some last defense. Crossing through the dusty underground halls was unsettling. The boot falls of soldiers and gang members echoed through the underground halls, met with nothing but silence. The cold, clean metal interior was a stark contrast to the blood and rubble up above. The only evidence of the battle here was the occasional ribbon of dust sifting through the sealing. Sharanna briefly wondered if this place was still structurally sound. No matter, there was no going back now. Eventually, they reached the end of the hall. A large safe door sat at the end. Behind was the true headquarters of the Hunger Games. The place where death and violence was orchestrated. There was no need to bother trying to work with the lock. A few soldiers attached small charges along the rim of the door. A button press, a sharp pop, and a shower of sparks later, and the door swung open freely when her men pushed on it. They stepped to the side. Sharanna would enter first, and face whatever she met inside. Be that pathetic lazy nobles ready to surrender, or desperate psychopaths waiting to attack. @Edema Rue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His hand was sweaty on the grip of his pistol as he walked through the wreckage. The fight hadn't been bad, but it was in no way easy. A single man with a gun can block off a hallway, if his aim is good enough. They had upwards of five dozen guards, although many were killed in the initial blast. "Let's end this."

The Bookwyrm he/him Posted August 16 Report Share Posted August 16 Falr turned to his small band of warriors. "Units one and four, I want you to head inside as soon as this door is open. Carve out a path for us. Two and three, stay behind, cover our backs. I don't want the Central forces ambushing us as soon as we open the gate and are vulnerable." The group nodded, began unslinging rifles and preparing spore grenades. Milay pulled out a vial of steel and downed it. Time to end this. @J.
