"Good job, Shroomy! Hit him again!" Shroomy goes to do just that, waddling toward Swinub and releasing more spores. That is, until he trips and falls flat on his face. His confusion hadn't quite worn off yet.
[Streets]
Kitty gives the boggart a satisfied smirk. Serves him right. "Nice to meet you I guess. So what're we doing now?" She doesn't know the first thing about what she volunteered to help with!
That's all Shroomy can take. Those super effective attacks are nasty. Becca returns the mushroom pokemon to his ball. "Alright Glamdring, they're softened up for you. Finish them off!"
When one succeeds in teleporting to the place one will notice that they are in an underground hollow. If one is an expert then it will be noticed that we are 500,000 thousand kilometers underground. Oxygen is plenty here even this deep as there are plants that absorb dark energy and gives out breathable air in exchange. Truth be told the place holds a lot of dark energy. The tower Tartarus has a hollow around it so that the earth does not touch it. normally the tower would be 200 floors tall but it looks as if it just has 20 floors now excluding the ground floor, its as if someone messed with the building and distorted it.
"Well here we are, where we managed to find the deformed tower of Tartarus. What do you think of it?"
Serph asks the open area.
"My friend, who in all the hells are you talking to? Our companions are not yet here and I just arrived."
Element knew his friend could be strange at times.
"My dad used to say something similar. About there being no such thing as coincidence. Quite frankly, I don't like the thought that everything happens because it's supposed to happen. Suggests we don't have free will."
[Inside the Mech]
"God allows free will, otherwise it wouldn't be so much conflict in the world." The descended angel says with a faint smile. "And as a test, you must prove yourself, not only to God, but to yourself. That suggests free will doesn't it? You can fail or succeed, it's all up to you. God only placed you in the right location.""
Grantz sees the triplets and the chaos they caused.
"Is it just me or are you three nuts?"
He sees the hologram of Mark and Red. He also sees Mia shield herself from being scanned.
"I guess I'll test this out. Name Grantz and rank Visitor."
The machine starts to scan him and replies.
"Analyzed. Grantz upgrading rank to Lieutenant first grade, assigned to PT unit command."
Grantz scratches his head.
"Ok, I don't think I'm hurt. But I have no Idea what my rank means."
[SRW Plot: Red and Mark]
I haven't got a clue either, but I know I'm a Col., and I know that is traditionally a very high rank, so I don't mind.
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.
[Theater Plot]
Fade's element of surprise is completely purged.? Ha He still has an ace in the hole. holding up his left hand he stands there. on his hand is something like a Tattoo. A small white bubble going down to fill the Tattoo, which start to gloom. When the fire is aimed at him it seems like an invisible wall in front of Fade prevents the fire from reaching Fade. Hoping this will be enough to tell them this weapon don't work he prepares for the impact of the mech.

Mia is distracted with MDM at firs. her hands gloom slightly as she waves in front of the holes in MDM's armor. slowly they close and even the color becomes normal again. After all she keeps her shield up. Scanning isn't lethal after all, but she isn't willing to give them data she don't want them to have. Lucky that MDM's inside is saved as well. After a moment she turns to the system.

"Alright." Arel nods and takes a careful step forward. After she puts her foot down it doesn't stop moving forward. Arel rather quickly ends up nearly doing the splits then falling over on the ice.
[Ice Rink]
Reinholdt winces. "You ok?"
Probably not. Reinholdt would step out to help her, but he suspects he'd end up in the same spot, especially with those vines about.
He slowly crouches down from where he is to reach out his arm as far as it can to help her up.
"Hold onto the wall."

Glamdring suddenly snaps to attention when he hears his name! His turn to fight? Great! Though... he has to keep in mind that he isn't allowed to finish a fight for whatever absurd reason. These humans don't seem very keen on killing.

Thick mist begins to swirl around Glamdring moments before!

Close enough.

"We're going to destroy a Huldra that has been harassing the local population," Zaal replies. "It is a creature akin to the one named Fredrick. Or Winifred. Or whatever it's calling itself now. Though I believe the monster in question is only a Three-Tails."
"Mhmm," Inquisitor Thomas confirms. "Fredrick will be able to devour its illusions. That should make the hunt a lot easier."

A girl in a skin tight jumpsuit is currently being pinned against a brick wall in an alley by a man in a trenchcoat with a knife! Clearly he has bad intentions!

"I'm okay." Arel says as she gets her legs untangled. She's flexible enough that that never hurt overly much. She manages to get in a kneeling position. She pushes against the ice with a few of her vines and reaches for Rein's hand with her own hand and another of her vines. Assuming she doesn't accidentally tug Rein over, she should be up in short order.

It's a new development. We're testing it. For now, just leave it be.

Reinholdt's been clinging to that door area for a rather specific reason. >>
He'll help her up with a slight shiver at the vine. Doesn't have any more advice for her though.

Shina falls silent for a moment. There was really no use to argue against that. She just nods in agreement. "Yes, that is probably the wisest course of action at this point."
DMC "May I have a copy of his writings then?"
She did need to read them, at least she figured she needed to.

"That could be a problem."
She stands up and tends to leave.

"I'm not a Captain, which is due to a High Priestress a much lower rank. change that."
MDM sounds indeed a bit annoyed. Why does another machine posess the right to call him inorganic, while itself is inorganic as well. With some steam clouds he seems to talk to Mia.
"Seems like the technologie of this place isn't as high as I assumed."

Eh.
Close enough.
What the... Swinub get back here, Chinchou you're up. Swinub disappears, only for Chinchou to reappear... right in front of the bubbles. Surely he could have sent it out elsewhere to dodge that attack, right? Why would - oh. The bubbles begin pouring over Chinchou and sinking into its skin, repair its injuries from earlier in the fight. Good thing it has Water Absorb!
Spark it. Patrick says, and Chinchou flies at Glamdring, surrounded in a halo of electricity.
The odd gun-like device hanging around Glamdring's neck seemed to absorb the brunt of the electrical attack! Still hurt Glamdring, sure. But, wow. What the heck is that thing?
The Vaporeon takes the disruptor in his mouth and fires a bolt of sickly green energy at the opposing Pokemon! The weapon doesn't even have an attack type! What insanity is this?
*PWEEEEM!*
The weapon doesn't have enough power to deliver anything above the 'Stun' setting. But given that everything in the Pokemon universe is at the stun setting that probably doesn't matter much.

Winifred nods to the others before opening it up and heading through!
On the other side? A hallway. Possibly of doom. The of doom part is supported when a massive rotting hand with an eye in the palm reaches through one wall and smashes Winifred into the other.
Ouch!
Dangit, this place's got so many ghosts they're literally coming out of the woodwork.
Sensing the spirit leap out from behind him Oliver spins on 'round on the balls of his feet to face it, following the pirouette up with a rapid slash. If the hand is open and the palm visible from the side Ollie's on the slash will be aimed at that, otherwise, he'll just be hacking at the darned thing.

"I mean what are we gonna do right now?" Silly Zaal. Kitty already knew that part. She taps her foot impatiently.

Arel manages to get to and stay on her feet! She uses her vines to support herself so she doesn't fall again. She smiles at Rein. "Thanks."

"Whoo! You got this, Glamdring!" Becca shouts. She has no idea what that item he has is, but it seems to be effective.
Nope, can't see the eye. Eye is in the palm. Palm is smashing Winifred into the wall. Crunch!
Though slashing into the horrible monster works pretty well!
The ghostly creature screeches from... umm... somewhere... and recoils before aiming a massive punch at Oliver!
Bam!
Right in the kisser!
Once she manages to catch her senses Winifred carves a chunk out of the monster with her halberd as well!

Which appears to be an-

Broken windows. Weed-strewn lawn. A hook on a rope clanking rhythmically against the rusted old flag pole. Wind blowing through playground equipment and filling the air with the sound of phantom laughter.
It's all rather creepy.

"What? You never been in a good fight?" Alpha just smirks at Grantz, his smile more than a little bloody due to a few of the bullets hitting him in the face. Split lip, black eye, the works as far as bruises go.
"So, we just tell this thing what we wanna be, right?" First asks, trying to wave a hand through the hologram.
One stays as quiet as ever, although this time there might be a little more reason to it than just his natural reluctance to speak. The triplet is in a bad way, slumped down in one corner, breathing ragged, blood pooling beneath him from that one stray bullet that managed to find it's mark before Grantz cast the shielding spell.

"...Oh." Kitty stops and looks at the building. "Huh... So that's it?" That's... indeed creepy. "How do you know he's in there?" She sounds a bit reluctant.
"A combination of divination, prayer, and the fact that quite a few people have seen the Huldra holing up in here during the day," Inquisitor Thomas says before heading toward the door, motioning for the others to follow.
In goes Freddie!
And Zaal does likewise!
Though as soon as Kitty starts to move he turns to her and says, "No, you will be staying here, m'lady. Keep an eye on Wiggums and make sure the crass little imp doesn't get into any trouble."
And then in he goes as well!
The crass little imp snickers in melevolent glee. "Oh yeah! You get to baby-sit me, miss Hotty McNopants! First order of business, get me something to eat!"

"You're kidding." Oh no, he's not kidding. Kitty turns to glare at the Boggart. "I'm not getting you anything. You're gonna sit down and shut up till they're back."
This is going to be horrible, Kitty just knows it. She just wants to punch in his stupid face. "Get back here, you little freak." She steps forward and tries to grab his arm, and give it a sharp tug.
