The Stormfather He/Him Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 Quote Okay I'm all caught up. Sorry, I was hiking. Outside GM HQ "Zebtir, first explosive launch in three. Two. One. Go!" Zebtir burned steel and pushed, sending the small explosives towards the door. As they got close, he pushed a tiny bomb with a fuse already lit into them. They were very basic explosives, so it was easy to ignite them with another explosion. Basically just gunpowder. A lot. A ball of fire erupted in front of the door, provoking screams from inside. A volley of pistol fire rang out against the shouting, and Zebtir sprayed coins, pushing hard against them. He didn't know if it hit anyone. Adris lifted his pistol, readying himself. Two Steeles he had never bothered to learn the names of pushed a wagon filled with two dozen sticks of dynamite, sending it rolling towards the door. "Back, everybody! Back!" Adris ran full tilt away from the cart. Three. He turned for a moment, making certain everyone had heard him and knew that they should get away. two. Once he was far enough, he leveled his pistol towards the now-exploded door. One. Boom. All was fire and ash. @J. Magi you can hop in to do what the House soldiers are doing at the time. HG arena. The Killer taken aback for a moment by Corin. Enough for The Human, the real Mark, to take control. Enough to speak, and make certain that the Killer wouldn't return. Seize himself fully, remember the ways from long ago that he used to resist this thing, this beast inside of him. "Corin! Get us out of here, now! We gotta go, because I'm pretty sure the rest of them aren't gonna' like this! Also, if you ever do somethign like this again, be certain that there'll soon be a shardknife through your eye." @Edema Rue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Magi she/her Posted August 14 Report Share Posted August 14 (edited) Quote Sorry I was busy 11 hours ago, The Stormfather said: "Alright. Blow a hole right through the main entrance. My Coinshot can spray some metal into there and my Lurcher can grab some random metal things and yank them lightly, try to get lucky and pull the right line to take one of those rifles." "The rest of us spray some bullets in, but when they actually start coming to fight, we wait. We have the Coinshot push more explosives further into the HQ, hopefully taking out a few more guards, then we go in, gun's a'blazin." "Sound like a good plan?" McDonald warehouse: "Good with me," Sharanna said flashing a smile. "And of course, my men will be there to provide cover and backup." By then, the extra House forces had arrived, and the warehouse was full of soldiers in neat uniforms. Everything was ready. 7 hours ago, The Bookwyrm said: Her eyes widened slightly at that. Then she chuckled. "Well, I guess in the near future you get to meet the boy your girl has the hots for...assuming this goes well." A young woman, probably about seventeen, emerged from the crowd. "What is it, Mom?" "Can you take these two children to Arla? They need a place to stay." "Sure." Milay turned to Meron and Lily, crouching down in the same way her mother had. "You ready to come?" 7 hours ago, Ancient Elantrian said: Alderic exits the aircraft, dressed in his traditional military attire, a suit of thick glowing black and purple armor. Tinkers village: Sharlin watched the new people arrive, checking to make sure everything was under control. Plus, she was mildly curious. The woman and children were the family of a tribute, it seemed. She wondered why'd they'd come at all. They couldn't fight. This was a place violence. Maybe they were friends of the villagers. She decided it wasn't her business. Watching them go, she slunk up to the guy who'd just got off the hover-craft. The guy stood out more then a dead frog in a chicken coop. "Hey mister weird guy-with the armor! Who're you?" @Ancient Elantrian 3 hours ago, The Stormfather said: Outside GM HQ "Zebtir, first explosive launch in three. Two. One. Go!"

GM HQ, 8:15 p.m. Soldiers in black rushed the building after the explosion, overwhelming capital security guards. The entrance was secured in minutes. Deeper into the hall, peacekeepers used large chunks of debris as cover from the onslaught. House members and gang members alike fought deeper into the building. The dynamite had been a good tactic, it seemed. Striking hard and fast had taken everyone off-guard. Sharanna surveyed the efforts from the front hall. She herself stayed mostly out of the fight, unlike the earlier alley fight. A small first aid station was set up swiftly, and she helped organize groups to capture different wings of the building. @The Stormfather Quote The person in charge of the govt is like . . . a president right? I just need to know what they're dismantalling. 1 hour ago, Edema Rue said: Corin shook his head numbly. “I could—get you all down to the central platform, if you want.” HG Arena: "Yes . . . yes that'd be good!" Sharp said. His heart raced with excitement at seeing the good part of Corin win. Maybe Tinker and Mare wouldn't have to fight after all. He wouldn't have to face Dougella.

Benjamin Savage, GMHQ Benjamin taps speed, all the speed he had been saving up for months on a whim, and rushes forward grabbing a weapon from one of the peacekeepers that he passed, and stopping behind them all, watching as his sides bullet's slowly moved towards their aim. He himself takes aim from behind the peacekeepers. Torturing bastards, he thinks to himself before shooting them all in the back, and running back before he got hit by any stray bullets. Dougella Savage, HG Arena Dougella glances at Corin, Wait what? . What had happened so that he had gained control of all his faculties again. She glances at Sharp, Why is everyone trusting him? she however yells out over the void that separates them. "I could try and get us into the mirror dimension" making a confirming glance at Pigment.
