    "For some odd reason I can't remember this became my default form, I'm not sure why I don't have horns or claws like most of my kind....."

    Anyway Red follows Mark to the flight of steps. When they get near the door the door will open. The security turned off in this area so no worries.

    I've known a few demons in my time. You aren't that unusual. I'lltell you the most commonly concluded subconscious motive for it, but only if you promise not to incinerate me first.

    Mark's attention shifts to the AI.
    Name, Mark. Rank, visitor.
    And back to Red.
    Nothing personal, I hope you understand. But that's what happened to most of the psychologists who suggested it when they told the demons. They concluded that it's because you just want to be loved, so you take the form of what is often observed to be the most functional being to receive unconditional love. Ergo, a young human child. The other theory is that you're a bunch of sadistic creatures who enjoy the pain others experience when being beaten by a little kid. Take your pick.

    To Mark,
    "Well last I checked i'm no sadist and this form has made me a number of friendly companions, so I guess its the first option. thanks doc"

    The AI responds.

    The vines leave her a bit unbalanced in the back. She can compensate for it pretty easily. Not so easily when she's trying to stand with skates, though. If only she had something to pull herself up with.

    "As you wish Col. Mark."

    A video shows in a floating hologram like screen. the triplets can be seen fighting off turrets and AI robots. Grantz is casting a spell or something and Mia is hiding behind MDM. The bullets and the lazers hit walls as the party dodges bullets.

    Red sees the footage!

    Glamdring is just watching the fight.

    Silently.

    Though he did roll his eyes in exasperation when the Magikarp was sent out. Just a little more of the mounting evidence that his master has no idea what she's doing.

    Ah well.

    He still has to serve her none the less.

    As horrible as those flying torso monsters are they don't seem to cause any actual physical harm. They're just freaky as all hell. The perverse demonic flame causes them no damage what so ever and they go screeching off through the walls again.

    Bye horrible tentacle-faced things!

    "Well,"
    Winifred comments. "That was terrible."

    As mentioned before two paths are open to our heroes!

    A hallway to the north and a door to the east. The torso beasts went flying off to the north if that matters.

    And dodge they do!

    Well, mostly they dodge.

    With six turrets and two gunners blazing away at them, obviously no matter how fast they run or what evasive maneuvers they take there's simply no way to avoid every last bullet.

    First and Alpha barely even slow down thanks to Grantz's spell, each bullet that rebounds off them causing little more than a stumble and a grunt of pain. It's One, already wounded and lagging behind the others, that really takes the brunt of it. Unable to effectively dodge he gets hammered by bullet after bullet, each one slowing him down more and making evading the next one even harder.

    More counter-fire is sent the AI Gunner's way, the smokescreen not effecting the triplets acurracy at all 'cause they were just firing blind in the first place!

    Well, in that case, two more AI piloted robots explode along with the turret nearest Grantz and Mia and MDM. The 2 remaining AI piloted robots stop firing as
    they cannot see the triplets or anything for that matter. The 4 remaining turrets can't see the triplets so they concentrate fire on Grantz, Mia and MDM. But! they suddenly stop as this happens!

The sword itself is high magic and will drain the soul of people it wounds. The effect is as strong as the wound it causes is so a killing hit gives Fade back a lot more health then a scratch.

She does this by constantly keeping her arms moving in front of her, thus keeping the kinetic forces at her command moving. These would deflect the bullets before blocking them, but some may get blocked as well.

    She keeps an eye on what she can, taking note of who's shooting who. That info may come in use later.

Then she turns and rushes towards one of the men who'd fired at her, withdrawing a small spear from it's concealed place.

    She tries to jump on the man's shoulders, while thrusting the spear straight into his eye. The spear is made of adamantine, and Jane's strength has been enhanced via her tech-implants, so she should have little trouble getting through his armor.

Materializing in his hands, a cannon that's large even for Teq is brought to bear, and he opens fire with lethal precision.

    By 'lethal precision' I mean he's likely to demolish half the stage. The rounds are magnetically accelerated, with enough numbers and ferocity to tear apart an armored vehicle in seconds. They should travel through the soldiers like spears of divine destruction, sundering their fleshy vessels in a stream of hot tungsten. Percilia asked for a ranged combat expert, and she shall not be disappointed.

    Unless the actors are still running around like headless chickens, they shouldn't be harmed. The computer system in Teq's helmet does allow for some differentiating between hostiles and non-hostiles, so the rather dangerous projectiles will travel harmlessly past the innocent patrons of the theater.

    The gunfire from the targets does just as little harm to Teq. Their primitive bullets never even make it past his energy shield, which sparks and flickers with each piece of lead that is sent careening away.

    [Theater Plot]

    Absolute pandemonium ensues in this stadium of death today, folks! We'd have a legit NPC riot on our hands if not for the foresight of the discerning but amateurish troopers had in thinning the crowd as it were before things really started heating up! That would be in the interests of nobody here, as that would amount in

    Demon Queen and Shrike have put up a valiant front in safeguarding the civilians present in the theater up to this point, but now they might find their bodies and minds liberated from this most noble labor! The survivors of the initial onslaught have spaced themselves out along the walls of the theater, hunched over or prone on the ground in order to minimize the surface area they expose to their sloppy assailants. They've taken as much cover as they is up for grabs in this enclosed battlefield! They're relatively safe. For now.

    Moving on...

    Fade will find his sword cleanly connecting with the neck of his mark. With an alarmed shout interrupted right in the middle, the man's head is lopped off! He was, up until instants before his death, unaware of Fade's presence and thus unable to retaliate in any notable manner.

    Fade's element of surprise is completely purged now, though, and he's right up there in terms of targeting priority as...

    Jane. Jane will learn that these soldiers aren't as incapable of fighting back as it would appear at a glance. Lunging at the soldier as she is, he has been afforded a decent amount of time to react, though her speed definitively outclasses his by every measure. He swings the butt of his rifle at where Jane's general body might be when she charges him. He attempts to shunt her away from her, but she might register a spear jab to the eye regardless. That decision I leave entirely up to you to establish. He won't be alive in a minute either way.

    The other two grunts who have just finished reloading their guns and those that have recently recovered from Demon Queen's kinetic blast should suddenly be reduced to stains on the stage as Teq's railgun shreds to strips of assorted substances them along with the stage. Swiss cheese anyone? Well, that and the strain of bearing the other combatants engaged in mortal combat up on the elevated largely wooden platform causes the remainder of the floor of the stage to splinter and creak, its structural integrity drawing dangerously close to zero.

    But then!

    The stage and set simultaneously explode outward as power armor is called onto the site! Four colossal suits of metal coated in reactive shielding technology about 1.5 times the height of a normal man and 4 times as wide and thick. They burst out from deep under the stage, tearing through any and all walls that stand in their way. They are outfitted with two different types of weapon sets. Two are equipped with a flamethrower on their left arm and a massive energy sword jutting out of a source inches behind their right upper arms. Others sport an intimidating electric beam cannon on their right and a titanic metal shield with jagged edges welded onto their left.

    The flamethrower mechs emerge with their flame jets ablaze, infusing their deadly spray with napalm to give it a more lasting effect. They aim primarily at Jane and Fade. The two heavy beam cannon mechs move to engage Teq in close quarters combat before, they estimate, he is able to reload his crazy battlecruiser armament.
