*****Recap of Last Session*****
The Team has passed through the crucible of combat with the unknown spirits and lived. But many of the team are wounded, some are badly burned by acid.
The mysterious juggernaut Rick has fallen prey to an acid attack burning so much of his body to sludge that even he could not survive. Manzazzuu greaves for his fallen bodyguard.
Doc has cast a spell on the mass of bodies and they have begun to burn to ash. Whatever was lurking in the astral among the bodies has left to parts unknown, it is assumed to whatever meta-plane it came from.
The enigmatic hacker, Ten seems to have been possessed by whatever foul thing lurked among the mass of dead bodies. After delivering a warning that it would return he threw himself into the blaze, laughing all the while.
The team has precious little time to grieve. The cabal of mages is still loose and though it is unknown if they know the runners are here, it's a good bet they do. The BTL lab still needs to be destroyed as well to forfill the contract.
Local time is 11:36. It is 24 minutes until the moon is fully eclipsed. Who knows if the ritual can still be finshed.
*****End Recap*****
[8:53:12 PM] Manzazzuu "Are you alright, Butterfly?" He asks, after he's finished healing her. He brings a hand up to his bleeding nose to pinch off the flow of blood.
[8:54:32 PM] Butterfly Still gimacing she replies, "Well, it doesn't hurt as much...lemme just..." and goes about cleaning and bandaging the remaining damage the best she can.
[8:55:17 PM] DC "Doc I need a little help with the acid on Pele's arm"
[8:55:37 PM] Doc "On my way"
[8:55:46 PM] Manzazzuu "I am sorry I couldn't help you more." He says, standing, and favouring his injured foot.
[8:55:49 PM] * Doc heads over to Pele and DC
[9:05:52 PM] Butterfly "Can I borrow your medkit, if you're not using it Doc?"
[9:06:19 PM] * DC slides over one of her's
[9:06:36 PM] Butterfly "Thanks"
[9:14:01 PM] * Butterfly obviously knows her way around a medkit and serious injuries. She takes care of herself expertly.
[9:14:20 PM] Butterfly "Ok, let me see that foot." she says to Manzazzuu.
[9:15:24 PM] Manzazzuu "Alright, but be careful. I think I got unlucky in how it hit." He offers the foot to the woman, leaning his hand against a nearby wall so he can balance himself easier with all his weight on a single foot.
[9:16:20 PM] * Cherub is surrounded by a refreshing green light for a short instant after what it vanish leaving him in a better shape than he was before.
[9:17:37 PM] Butterfly "You might be more comfortable if you sit down."
[9:19:11 PM] * Manzazzuu shrugs and sits down. "Just be careful, I'm pretty sure if I used magic I'd lose some toes. I don't know what that means for the usual methods though."
[9:19:48 PM] Butterfly "Well, lets take a look and see..."
[9:19:59 PM] * Butterfly takes a closer look at his foot.
[9:20:14 PM] * Manzazzuu helps get his boot off so she can get a better look.
[9:22:35 PM] * Cherub slightely cough.
[9:24:50 PM] GM_Kagi *As Butterfly pulls Manzazzuu's boot off several layers of skin and some tissue come off with it. The wound begins bleeding again as it is agrivated badly.
[9:25:18 PM] Manzazzuu "AAAaaargh!" He cries in pain, being caught unaware.
[9:25:32 PM] Butterfly "DREK!"
[9:33:49 PM] * Cherub is having a great moment of fun. He hasn't felt so good since he have arrived in seattle.
[9:34:48 PM] Pele "Thanks so far. Think you can get any more done?"
[9:35:33 PM] DC "hold on a moment..."
[9:36:20 PM] * DC touches a patch of undamaged skin near pele's wound
[9:48:17 PM] * DC tries to center herself to heal Pele, she gently channels energy from astral space to regrow the cellular structure of Pele's wounds
[9:49:14 PM] * Doc with the help of Butterfly are able to repair the damage to Manzazzuu's foot however there most likely will be burn scars and he may have to limp for awhile till it is fully restored.
[9:51:04 PM] Butterfly "When everyone's ready, the elevator shaft is around the other side of the crematorium"
[9:51:09 PM] Doc "Do we plan to continue or fall back and recover before we try again?"
[9:52:01 PM] Manzazzuu "If everyone feels they're alright, I suggest we continue on. Time is a factor here, and we don't know if we stopped anything, for certian."
[9:52:13 PM] Butterfly "Fall back?" she looks confused, as though she doesn't understand the term.
[9:53:05 PM] GM_Kagi *Current local time is 11:45pm
[9:53:30 PM] Pele "Thank you! I feel renewed!"
[9:53:46 PM] * Cherub put his back against the wall, waiting for everyone to be done playing to doctor.
[9:54:08 PM] * Manzazzuu takes a moment to move over to Rick's body, crouch, and put a hand on what's left of the big guy's shoulder.
[9:56:40 PM] GM_Kagi *Ricks body twitches
[9:56:47 PM] DC " I think we should move on and go above our duties"
[9:57:03 PM] DC "And wipe them out... all of them"
[9:58:38 PM] Pele "Aye. I deel refreshed, and though I may be close to the end of my luck. We need to finish soon."
[9:59:10 PM] * Manzazzuu blinks, and backs away from Rick's body.
[9:59:22 PM] Manzazzuu "He shouldn't be twitching like that." He warns the others.
[9:59:28 PM] * Doc puts his hand on his chest and murmurs a few words and a blues glow washes over him and he seems revitalized.
[10:00:02 PM] * DC looks over at Rick
[10:00:35 PM] Cherub "If we have some explosive in exess i'd suggest that we set a bomb here as well. Just a suggestion."
[10:01:28 PM] GM_Kagi *Rick ::His entire chest and organs are a mess of sludge, but his finger slowly looks to be trying to scrawl something in the dirt next to him::
[10:01:47 PM] Butterfly "I'm not supposed to dem the whole structure."
[10:01:54 PM] * Butterfly looks at rick.
[10:01:54 PM] * Manzazzuu blinks again, crouching to examine the writing - unsure of what's going on here.
[10:02:25 PM] * DC is also wondering what rick has written
[10:03:26 PM] * Pele looks at the writing
[10:05:08 PM] GM_Kagi *The writing is very small as he seems to have limited mobility, hard to see it unless you crouch close to it
[10:07:38 PM] * Butterfly kneels next to Rick and looks closely at the writing.
[10:07:42 PM] * DC asks her spirit if it would like to go right now or if it would rather hang in here till it was done
[10:07:43 PM] * Pele crouches to look
[10:08:36 PM] * Pele then stand up and offers his place to Manny
[10:17:17 PM] GM_Kagi *Rick ::His other arm suddenly jerks up and grabs Manzazzuu by the throat::
[10:18:14 PM] * DC rushes over to help get the re-Zombied hand off of Manny
[10:18:40 PM] Cherub "you're...friend...seems quite angry at you..."
[10:18:46 PM] * Cherub coughs
[10:19:59 PM] * Butterfly shifts quickly so she's sitting on her leg, shin across Rick's throat, and pulls at his arm.
[10:22:24 PM] GM_Kagi *Ricks arm comes loose with a disgusting pop and the sound of rending flesh. Rick's corpse struggles for a moment and then goes limp
[10:23:17 PM] DC "who wants to leave the room of evil alone now?"
[10:23:27 PM] * Butterfly tosses the arm aside and looks at the writing in the dust again.
[10:23:41 PM] Doc "I agree we should move along."
[10:23:55 PM] Manzazzuu "That.. shouldn't have happened." Manny says, as he stands up again, his voice a little raw from the damage to his throat.
[10:24:02 PM] DC " we should also try to collaps it from above
[10:24:29 PM] GM_Kagi *The letters "Huehu.." can be read but the full word trails off, it seems Rick didn't have time to finsh it.
[10:26:22 PM] Butterfly "If you guys would have let me from the start we never would have had to come down here." she says in a half joking I-told-you-so-voice.
[10:31:06 PM] DC "lets get the people who would do such work"
[10:31:34 PM] * DC starts heading toword the stairs up
[10:32:04 PM] Butterfly "Where are you going?"
[10:32:17 PM] * Butterfly looks confused again.
[10:32:40 PM] DC "upstairs... They would be there if not down with there abomination"
[10:33:21 PM] * Butterfly looks even more confused.
[10:33:33 PM] Manzazzuu "The plan was to hit the lab next, wasn't it?"
[10:33:43 PM] DC "the people who are trying to summon this thing"
[10:33:54 PM] Butterfly "But...I thought we were trying to aviod extra fight..."
[10:34:23 PM] GM_Kagi *The nearest Stairs are in the south east corner of the basement, the steel door to them has been welded shut
[10:35:06 PM] Manzazzuu "We are trying to avoid extra fighting, yes."
[10:35:13 PM] DC "hmmm they I guess we have to take the elevator
[10:36:18 PM] DC "hold on a second I guess
[10:36:20 PM] Cherub "Teshal'nik glareshar aroës !" A light flow of energy appear around Cherub and then vanish silently.
[10:37:16 PM] * Doc glows slightly in a violet hue and fades soon after.
[10:48:49 PM] * DC has obviously cast something and now seems to be looking into the open spaces of nothing
[10:51:02 PM] GM_Kagi *Current local time is 11:50 pm
[10:52:50 PM] DC " I don't see anything on the third floor but the troops are getting orginized on the second and the first floor is pritty much the same as always
[10:54:45 PM] Manzazzuu "Sounds like they know we're here."
[10:55:17 PM] DC "I sujest we search out the the other side of the basement in case they are down here
[10:55:35 PM] DC "but I say we double time it"
[10:55:52 PM] Doc "got my vote."
[10:56:23 PM] * Manzazzuu shrugs.
[10:56:28 PM] Manzazzuu "Let's just get moving."
[10:56:34 PM] Butterfly "Manny can't double time. You guys want to split up?"
[10:57:29 PM] Doc "not sure spliting up is best idea can someone carry him?"
[10:57:35 PM] DC "sure you, pele, and many go to the elivator and wait and the rest will search"
[10:57:39 PM] Cherub "if they are aware of our presence it's a bad idea to split. Dividing our stregth will make us weaker."
[10:57:56 PM] DC "hmm good point"
[10:57:59 PM] Butterfly "But faster"
[10:58:01 PM] * Manzazzuu takes his cane out from under his long coat. This being the first time that he's likely ever found it useful to use -as- a cane.
[10:58:59 PM] * DC looks at the cane
[10:59:51 PM] DC "nice touch Grandpa" ::DC smiles::
[10:59:57 PM] Doc "someone kick the cane" lol
[11:00:13 PM] Manzazzuu "Do we really have time for wise-cracks?"
[11:00:39 PM] * DC looks ashamed "no we do not, I am sorry"
[11:00:51 PM] Doc "my apologies little nervous."
[11:00:57 PM] * DC gets moveing to the other side
[11:01:00 PM] * Cherub cough.
[11:01:40 PM] Manzazzuu "Let's go. I'll keep up."
[11:01:49 PM] * Butterfly shrugs
[11:01:52 PM] Butterfly "K"
[11:01:57 PM] DC "I'll take point"
[11:02:48 PM] Butterfly "I'll take rear"
[11:03:08 PM] Manzazzuu "I guess I'll try to stay ahead of Butterfly."
[11:03:43 PM] Doc "I will be around you Manz in case you need help also."
[11:05:21 PM] GM_Kagi *The runners move down the corridors at a near reckless pace finding all the doors welded shut, until they happen across the door to the stairs in the North West Corner. You stand before the close heavy steel door
[11:10:05 PM] DC whispers "ready everyone?"
[11:10:06 PM] Butterfly "Well, we could go up the easy way like they expect..."
[11:10:11 PM] * Manzazzuu moves up to the welded shut elevator, gives his cane a twist, and pulls a sword out.
[11:10:27 PM] Manzazzuu "I think I can make pretty short work of this weld."
[11:10:55 PM] * DC looks at manny who is doing his own thing
[11:11:06 PM] Butterfly "Or we can open the elevator and still try not to be seen"
[11:11:26 PM] * Butterfly looks at DC who is doing his own thing.
[11:12:39 PM] * Manzazzuu starts using his sword to take apart the weld.
[11:15:53 PM] * DC watches manny take apart the weld
[11:17:27 PM] GM_Kagi *Manzazzuu begins using his sword to cut through the welding the monofiliment sword is slicing through the welding, but it is slow going.
[11:18:11 PM] * Butterfly leans against a wall far too casually and grins at Manzazzuu.
[11:19:44 PM] * DC checks her watch
[11:20:05 PM] Manzazzuu "This isn't going as quickly as I expected, Butterfly, do you have a faster way?" He asks, turning to look at her.
[11:21:06 PM] * Butterfly pulls out another Thermite Bar.
[11:21:22 PM] Butterfly "Stand back, everyone."
[11:21:35 PM] * Doc backs up quickly.
[11:21:54 PM] * Manzazzuu puts his sword back into the cane, and makes his way back as he twists it back into locking position.
[11:24:15 PM] GM_Kagi *The thermite bar melts the welding and the edges of the elevator doors like a hot knife through butter. In seconds the doors are open.
[11:24:39 PM] * Butterfly looks up the shaft.
[11:24:43 PM] Manzazzuu "I hope I'm still able to climb."
[11:25:42 PM] DC "I have the the levetaite spell"
[11:26:08 PM] DC "but I am close enough to look into there rooms with Claravoince now I'll take a look first
[11:31:42 PM] DC In Japanese "OH GOD NO!"
[11:31:57 PM] * DC cast levitate on manny
[11:33:32 PM] Butterfly In Jap, "What?"
[11:33:35 PM] * DC says it so fast and ecitedly she forgets to translate "We have to Go they are ripping out there organs"
[11:35:14 PM] * DC starts translaning again "and laughing while they are doing so!"
[11:35:45 PM] Butterfly "Stop talking and climb. The ladder's over there."
[11:35:58 PM] * DC starts triyng to climing while lifting manny
[11:36:32 PM] * Manzazzuu puts his cane back away again, expecting to need to use his hands more than he'll need to move fast.
[11:37:10 PM] * Cherub , as they are moving forward, cast a serie of spells more or less sucessful. He seems a little irritated but finaly obtain what he wished for.
[11:37:18 PM] * DC asks her spirit to help her up
[11:37:29 PM] Manzazzuu "It's probably a good idea to blow the power before we come out." He tells the others, lowering his voice now that they're making their way into areas they're more likely to be heard.
[11:38:00 PM] * Doc follows the group upward.
[11:38:28 PM] Cherub Since they know that we are here anyway...whatever..."
[11:38:37 PM] * Butterfly takes the rear as usual, ready to blow the power when DC gives the signal.
[11:39:08 PM] Doc "They may know we are here but maybe not where we are, yet."
[11:39:19 PM] GM_Kagi *The runners climb the maintenace ladder up the elevator shaft to the third floor. The elevator doors are closed, but not welded here.
[11:40:12 PM] GM_Kagi *DC is the only one who can reach the doors as the rest are lower down the ladder then him
[11:40:56 PM] Cherub "Blowing the power won't let them know where we are."
[11:41:18 PM] * DC tries to open the doors on the third floor while telling "Blow the power"
[11:42:03 PM] * Butterfly pushes the big red button.
[11:42:58 PM] * Manzazzuu waits, holding onto one of the ladder rungs in case something happens to break DC's concentration on the levitation spell.
[11:43:32 PM] GM_Kagi *The doors slide open and a shaft of light floods the elevator shaft, but only for a moment as all the lights blink off as Butterfly's charges go off and blow the power to the Tenement

[10:52:50 PM] DC " I don't see anything on the third floor but the troops are getting orginized on the second and the first floor is pritty much the same as always
[10:54:45 PM] Manzazzuu "Sounds like they know we're here."
[10:55:17 PM] DC "I sujest we search out the the other side of the basement in case they are down here
[10:55:35 PM] DC "but I say we double time it"
[10:55:52 PM] Doc "got my vote."
[10:56:23 PM] * Manzazzuu shrugs.
[10:56:28 PM] Manzazzuu "Let's just get moving."
[10:56:34 PM] Butterfly "Manny can't double time. You guys want to split up?"
[10:57:29 PM] Doc "not sure spliting up is best idea can someone carry him?"
[10:57:35 PM] DC "sure you, pele, and many go to the elivator and wait and the rest will search"
[10:57:39 PM] Cherub "if they are aware of our presence it's a bad idea to split. Dividing our stregth will make us weaker."
[10:57:56 PM] DC "hmm good point"
[10:57:59 PM] Butterfly "But faster"
[10:58:01 PM] * Manzazzuu takes his cane out from under his long coat. This being the first time that he's likely ever found it useful to use -as- a cane.
[10:58:59 PM] * DC looks at the cane
[10:59:51 PM] DC "nice touch Grandpa" ::DC smiles::
[10:59:57 PM] Doc "someone kick the cane" lol
[11:00:13 PM] Manzazzuu "Do we really have time for wise-cracks?"
[11:00:39 PM] * DC looks ashamed "no we do not, I am sorry"
[11:00:51 PM] Doc "my apologies little nervous."
[11:00:57 PM] * DC gets moveing to the other side
[11:01:00 PM] * Cherub cough.
[11:01:40 PM] Manzazzuu "Let's go. I'll keep up."
[11:01:49 PM] * Butterfly shrugs
[11:01:52 PM] Butterfly "K"
[11:01:57 PM] DC "I'll take point"
[11:02:48 PM] Butterfly "I'll take rear"
[11:03:08 PM] Manzazzuu "I guess I'll try to stay ahead of Butterfly."
[11:03:43 PM] Doc "I will be around you Manz in case you need help also."
[11:05:21 PM] GM_Kagi *The runners move down the corridors at a near reckless pace finding all the doors welded shut, until they happen across the door to the stairs in the North West Corner. You stand before the close heavy steel door
[11:10:05 PM] DC whispers "ready everyone?"
[11:10:06 PM] Butterfly "Well, we could go up the easy way like they expect..."
[11:10:11 PM] * Manzazzuu moves up to the welded shut elevator, gives his cane a twist, and pulls a sword out.
[11:10:27 PM] Manzazzuu "I think I can make pretty short work of this weld."
[11:10:55 PM] * DC looks at manny who is doing his own thing
[11:11:06 PM] Butterfly "Or we can open the elevator and still try not to be seen"
[11:11:26 PM] * Butterfly looks at DC who is doing his own thing.
[11:12:39 PM] * Manzazzuu starts using his sword to take apart the weld.
[11:15:53 PM] * DC watches manny take apart the weld
[11:17:27 PM] GM_Kagi *Manzazzuu begins using his sword to cut through the welding the monofiliment sword is slicing through the welding, but it is slow going.
[11:18:11 PM] * Butterfly leans against a wall far too casually and grins at Manzazzuu.
[11:19:44 PM] * DC checks her watch
[11:20:05 PM] Manzazzuu "This isn't going as quickly as I expected, Butterfly, do you have a faster way?" He asks, turning to look at her.
[11:21:06 PM] * Butterfly pulls out another Thermite Bar.
[11:21:22 PM] Butterfly "Stand back, everyone."
[11:21:35 PM] * Doc backs up quickly.
[11:21:54 PM] * Manzazzuu puts his sword back into the cane, and makes his way back as he twists it back into locking position.
[11:24:15 PM] GM_Kagi *The thermite bar melts the welding and the edges of the elevator doors like a hot knife through butter. In seconds the doors are open.
[11:24:39 PM] * Butterfly looks up the shaft.
[11:24:43 PM] Manzazzuu "I hope I'm still able to climb."
[11:25:42 PM] DC "I have the the levetaite spell"
[11:26:08 PM] DC "but I am close enough to look into there rooms with Claravoince now I'll take a look first
[11:31:42 PM] DC In Japanese "OH GOD NO!"
[11:31:57 PM] * DC cast levitate on manny
[11:33:32 PM] Butterfly In Jap, "What?"
[11:33:35 PM] * DC says it so fast and ecitedly she forgets to translate "We have to Go they are ripping out there organs"
[11:35:14 PM] * DC starts translaning again "and laughing while they are doing so!"
[11:35:45 PM] Butterfly "Stop talking and climb. The ladder's over there."
[11:35:58 PM] * DC starts triyng to climing while lifting manny
[11:36:32 PM] * Manzazzuu puts his cane back away again, expecting to need to use his hands more than he'll need to move fast.
[11:37:10 PM] * Cherub , as they are moving forward, cast a serie of spells more or less sucessful. He seems a little irritated but finaly obtain what he wished for.
[11:37:18 PM] * DC asks her spirit to help her up
[11:37:29 PM] Manzazzuu "It's probably a good idea to blow the power before we come out." He tells the others, lowering his voice now that they're making their way into areas they're more likely to be heard.
[11:38:00 PM] * Doc follows the group upward.
[11:38:28 PM] Cherub Since they know that we are here anyway...whatever..."
[11:38:37 PM] * Butterfly takes the rear as usual, ready to blow the power when DC gives the signal.
[11:39:08 PM] Doc "They may know we are here but maybe not where we are, yet."
[11:39:19 PM] GM_Kagi *The runners climb the maintenace ladder up the elevator shaft to the third floor. The elevator doors are closed, but not welded here.
[11:40:12 PM] GM_Kagi *DC is the only one who can reach the doors as the rest are lower down the ladder then him
[11:40:56 PM] Cherub "Blowing the power won't let them know where we are."
[11:41:18 PM] * DC tries to open the doors on the third floor while telling "Blow the power"
[11:42:03 PM] * Butterfly pushes the big red button.
[11:42:58 PM] * Manzazzuu waits, holding onto one of the ladder rungs in case something happens to break DC's concentration on the levitation spell.
[11:43:32 PM] GM_Kagi *The doors slide open and a shaft of light floods the elevator shaft, but only for a moment as all the lights blink off as Butterfly's charges go off and blow the power to the Tenement
