Hive warfare.

*I sigh and step out, bolstering the laspistol*

Holstering*

*akira steps out from behind the door, sword ready*

Looks towards the servo skulls at the door

"uhm..What"

+step back organic lifeforms, this no longer concerns you+

"damn right it fucking does you mechanical piece of shit"

*breathes a sigh of relief and mutters under his breath*
"Oh thank fuck it's not dad"

"Am I still trippin?"

"Alright you you floating trash heaps. fuck off"

A barrel pops out of some of their eyes, red dots pinpointing Akiras forehead.


+who said it wasn't?+ says the lead skull.

"Sooo... you want your boy back do you?"

+want is a strong word+

"Akira, it's not worth it. Gentlemen, I would reccomend returning to your rooms" *gestures to the rooms* "I shan't be long"

+follow me Maximillian, a word would do you good+ says the lead skull, hovering back.

*I walk toward Akira and hand her pretty much everything I'm carrying(so money, drugs, the pistol, though not the laspistol) before following the skull*

"Kill him and you'll quickly find steel at your neck. we take care of our own"

It takes you a far enough distance, so as not to be overheard.
+explain yourself+ it says coldly.

The other skulls stay at the doorstep, guns aimed.

*turns, his voice giving off signs of remorse*
"Akira, please stay out of it. I'd rather you weren't raped and tortured"
*and then walks to the skull*

*cough* refer to post above

"really? cute max, very cute. i can take care of myself." *draws the shotgun and aims it at the skulls from the hip*

OOC: I saw your post about the starcraft raeven

I like it very much

Good game, can't wait for the new one with the toss campaign where you play as zeratul and artanis

"I have no explanation, father"

+do you know the damage you've caused? The complete humiliation of our house? Of our family... I should disown you... but that would be too easy+

"alright skull-boys, there's a shotgun loaded with incendiary rounds pointed at you. if you happen to have any sense, guns away please."

+negative+

"do i need to count down? you ever seen what incendiary shotgun shells do?"

"I'm surprised you didn't lie, my disappearance wasn't public and you could simply say that I was on private business in the lower levels. Plus you can't disown me, I'm your only heir, that is unless you want house Mericroft absorbing all of our holdings."

I read that as house microsoft absorbing all the holdings

+your a smart boy, it's a shame your such a failure. The problem being that you have never been down here, so every one knew you ran+

+your futile threats mean nothing+ says one of the skulls.

*Akira raises the shotgun into their direct sight* "futile? how about this one. one day, your high and mighty lord will wake up with a knife in his throat"

+impossible+

"Oh father, this is hardly the first time I vanished for a day, remember when House Serifort attempted to have me assassinated? I wasn't heard from for nearly a week"

As it is, my activities were ultimately in service to our House. Our rivals power stems from the lower levels, should their(lower levels) loyalty suddenly away to us, we'll have considerable leverage over. Every. Single. House."

You suddenly hear a crack against the back of your head, a fist sending you to the ground, your head spinning.

OOC: me?

Yup.

*I slam into the ground*

+I'm sorry I couldn't do that in person. Now, your going to come with us, without arguing or saying another word, do you understand?+
You get kicked in the ribs, feeling your organs shift inside your ribcage.

"I was going to return, it's disgusting down here"

+and the people, these... so called friends?+

*she walks straight past the skulls* "enough time max...""

The member 'Captain Raeven' has done the following action : Challange Fate

'd20' : 9

They make horrendous screeching noises, their guns powering up.
+DESIST OR DIE+

"A rather disgusting necessity, alone I am obvious, but a group obscures me"

+then you won't mind if I kill them+

*stands*
"Publicly executing the lower class is embarrassing father, let their enemies do it for you. They have failed someone of importance down here and I believe he's going to show them the cost of ilure upon them"

Failure*

+don't give me that, they know who you are now... And I don't like liabilities+
