As those in the rain readied to use their weapons or powers, they would find something rather alarming. Megatron was unable to use his dual-tonfas. Esdeath was unable to turn droplets into ice shards. And Pyke would not be able to cast Phantom Undertow. Instead, Pyke would either crash right into the attacker, or stop just short of doing so once he realized this; either way, the attacker would grab him by the beck and lift him up into the air, preparing to choke the old seaman.

"Ah ha ha ha...have you realized it now? The powers and weapons that you have come to rely on have been stripped away... The only thing left is your true self, and if that isn't enough to save you...then only one thing can. Surrender to the light...or find yourself consumed in the darkness."

"Damn it!" Moira clicked her tongue as this new hunter revealed himself. "How is this even remotely entertaining if we can't fight back?!"

The question was punctuated by a loud yell. "RAAAAUUUGHH!!" The beast pursuing them neared ever closer. Whoever this man didn't get to, the beast surely would. Without much of a choice, Moira turned into smoke and veered off to the left, as if to avoid the two entirely.

With her attack turning into water, Esdeath was stunned, but she wasn't going to let that deter her. She approached the man while he was distracted with Pyke and gave him a swift kick to the stomach. hoping that her High Heeled boots would help, at least a tiny bit.

"...!" The shock of being unable to access his magic abruptly reached his brain, but it was too late. He crashed into the man with a thud, further surprised at the lack of damage. He had expected to at least make his adversary stumble from the unremarkable charge, but it seemed that he needed to rely on his powers here. "Damn you!" he cried out just before getting lifted into the air. He held on to the killer's arm and thrashed like a wild beast, ironically getting a taste of his own medicine for all the sea monsters (or people; the difference is negligible) that he had hooked or choked. Supernatural adrenaline pumped through his veins as he raised up his legs and attempted to drop-kick the pursuer in order to break out of his grasp.

The combined effort of him and Esdeath would surely lead to his freedom, right?​

"Yeah what else is new you hippie bitch?"
Ashley was not in the mood for any of this right now. "When we get out of here I'm going to burn you and then bury you so far into the ground that your rotten ass will never rise again." But boasting at the moment was pointless, and she was in no hurry to rescue the people fighting the huge masked man and instead ran after the newly transformed Megatron.

Bossk had almost gone face first into the new hunter in front of them. "I suppose not..." Instead of running anymore Bossk would attempt to give the man a swift jab in the face to try and get him disoriented.

Moira meanwhile saw something as she veered left...in the thicket was that a sign with an arrow on it pointing westwards?


@Jeremi @Yun Lee @Lucky @will30358 @Gummi Bunnies @Sark @Takumi @HuntedGroup
 
Will would be able to safely traverse around the hulking man, who seemed quite aware enough of his own stature to not even try and follow the robot up the tree. He raised his arm, as though ready to punch the entire tree down with his strength, but before he could do so, Bossk had socked him in the face, breaking his concentration and letting Will completely escape and move on.

"..."

From there, the man moved his gaze to direct his attention at Bossk. From the alien's perspective, punching the man's face was like punching a brick wall; it hurt like hell and didn't seem to have actually done anything to really hurt him. However, before Bossk would be able to do anything else; to hit him again, to move, to even think, something happened.

SHHRK!

Suddenly, sharpened shards of what appeared to be ice stabbed through Bossk's body, sticking out through his chest. From behind, the searing laughter of Acht rang, growing louder as she drew closer to Bossk while everyone else continued on their way to escape.

"Ohohoho, looks like we have our first blood!" The blonde woman laughed heartily as she walked behind Bossk, toying with one of the shards stabbed into his body with her finger. Meanwhile, in front of Bossk, the behemoth of a man only smirked, raising his arm once again and clenching his fist.

View attachment 3564

"Game over."

And then he swung.

CRASSHK!

The man delivered a devastatingly powerful punch toward Bossk's jaw, as though returning the favor. As the impact resounded with a small boom and a crack sound, Bossk fell to the ground listlessly, instantly killed by the punch, which had hit him hard enough that his neck was broken from the sheer force of the attack.

"One down. More to go," the man chuckled sinisterly, cracking his knuckles and looking toward the direction of where the group continued to run. "Why didn't you just keep going after them, Acht?"

"Fufu, a game's no fun if you just leap to the goal in one swoop," the woman answered, placing a hand on her hip, "Let them run. Let them tire themselves out. Let them fear. It isn't like anyone can save them after all. They're all alone here."

If only she knew.

Will Nines

Will was relieved ( he believed that was the emotion) that he got around the hulking man and managed to get up the tree. He was worried that the man could punch the tree down with his strength, but the little lizard man had punched the man, allowing him a chance to get away. He didn't know why he had helped him. but he would use the chance to head west since the factory wasn't going to help him.

"All of us! Retreat!" Megatron exclaims, "no exceptions!"

Megatron makes a swift U-turn, picking Ashley up and placing her within his confines, then striking an occupied masked man with a car 'accident'. He hoped the three warriors that engaged in battle heard him.

Megatron, aware that the masked man could deal with more than that, drove away from the scene just as fast.

@Ver @Yun Lee @York @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Crow @Siege @Jeremi @Ottonomous Ghost @Minerva @Soldiers​
 
Megatron could not transform into a car, either. Every single weapon, power, and ability was completely stripped from you in this place. But those who ran would have something else to worry about, as they would find they had run into something new entirely. For them, the rain had stopped, giving way to a scorching heat. The midday sun beat down upon them, and the smell of smoke filled their lungs. Where they now found themselves was a city on fire.

city-2444512_960_720-618x348.jpg


Screams of terror and mad laughter could be heard, and the latter seemed to be getting closer and closer...

Meanwhile, the three attacks were enough to cause the monster man to stumble, but he still held on to Pyke, until deciding he was no longer an enjoyable victim. Slamming the seafarer into Esdeath and Dhaos, he turned to those still in the forest, machete at the ready.

"Megatron is right! We need to-" Akande paused, noticing that Megatron and Ashley were no completely gone. "But they were just..." Ugh, he was wasting time trying to make sense of any of this! He retreated from the monster himself, and it seemed as though he vanished into thin air.

"Nrgh...hah!!" The beast screeched to a halt, the sight of Bossk's body taking over his priorities. "Guh! Mustn't waste...food...!"

Rushing to the corpse, he punched at its abdomen, his hand turning into sludge halfway through that swallowed Bossk whole. However it was that thing ate him was best left as a mystery, as it was now time to focus on escape. Moira, having seen the little sign, decided to follow it best she could, as there were really no other alternatives she could think of at the moment.

"This is bullshit!"
Ashley shouted to the high heavens when the scenery changed to a city in crisis. "She thinks she can just play with us..." It seemed that everything that had happened hit Ashley hard as she continued to ramble about their situation for everyone who wanted to hear it.

Meanwhile back with the masked monster Dhaos would help Pyke up on his feet. "The others had the right idea. Fighting this monster is pointless and potentially fatal. Let's join back up with the others and plan accordingly." With that he grabbed Pyke and motionedto Esdeath to follow him where Akande had disappeared.

@Ver @Yun Lee @York @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Crow @Siege @Jeremi @Ottonomous Ghost @Minerva @Soldiers

There were a lot of thick overgrowth as Moira and the others ran to where the sign had pointed, but soon a clearing came to view. "Surprise." And in the middle of the clearing stood the Batman Who Laughs with his trade mark grin looking at the group as they one after another came up behind Moira. "To think that the sign would work. Hehehe, some times you people really do the darnedest things!" His stance was lax and it seemed like he wasn't going to attack them, at least not yet.

The sailor shuddered as he tried to get off of the ground, still dazed by the attack. Combined with that, the sudden change of scenery, and Dhaos helping him stand up, his bloodlust drained considerably. He grunted as he stood back up and gave his saviors, especially the half-elf, a tired look. "Thanks. A crew comes in handy sometimes," he began, opening his mouth again to say something else, but stopped. But I ain't finished yet. The subconscious desire to pursue the enemy echoed in his mind, but he went along with his team anyway.

Beholding the sight of the burning city, Pyke scoffed, "Hah. This town's like a huge, sinkin' ship." Ironically, he coughed for a moment, evidently affected by the poor air quality.​

The odds just kept stacking against them. How annoying. Dagran used Candi's distraction (whether it worked or not) to step back, hopefully back into the grasses as some type of cover for now, he didn't move too far from the group however, but hoped he remained hidden to a degree.

If as on cue, Radec stepped in right at the back of the group, silently observing the group and frowned while eyeing the Batman who laughs.

"... I have nothing to say to you."

"That's good, very good in fact."

"Oh dear, you should take a cue from your friend over there and be quiet. Don't want to alert any unnecessary people after all."
It was clear that why ever the Batman Who Laughs was here it wasn't to fight.

❝ So what else is in store, huh? ❞ Nishiki narrowed his eyes at the Batman Who Laughs. It was like they couldn't get a break with this at all, aside with how they were left with very few options to act upon.

The crazed bat tapped his finger to his cheek like he was thinking. "What else, huh? Perhaps a discussion about your route, yes?" He turned towards Moira. "Did you really think the factory doors wouldn't explode the moment you'd try to open them? Pure amateur hour."

"To be powerless is to be alone," the zombie's voice echoed out over the three in the ruined city. "What shall you do when the united come for you? Will you fall...or will you assimilate?"

Ashley responded to the man with an ugly rash on his face. "We don't have any time for your leper ass."

@Yun Lee @Crow @Ottonomous Ghost

Dhaos hadn't seen anything like this, but he understood the concept. "Peculiar, if not unsurprising." Dhaos stepped further in. "I do not appreciate the silence. Because the silence indicates foes in waiting." As he said that Dhaos' body tensed up, he wasn't going to allow a foe to get a drop on him.




"To be very fair, do you really have any choice in the matter?"
That eerie grin seemed to follow them anyway they look. "The factory is a bust, hunters behind you and me in front. It's like you should throw in the towel. Or perhaps..." His lean bony finger pointed left. "You follow the path to get yourself a fighting chance?"

Pyke dismissed the zombie's message, having become tired of her riddles. Instead, he stared at the gory man in contempt. He took a confident step forward and shrugged. "So we're the food, huh?" He laughed. "Don't forget that sometimes a shark takes the bait..."

His amusement abruptly vanished as he crouched low to the ground, his muscles tensing in preparation. "If you run off now, you'll keep your head."
 
"The only heads you should be worrying about are yours!" The rashed man chortled, licking his lips and dramatically spreading his arms. "But what kind of prick would I be to not share three new toys with my friends?!"

The laughter from before grew closer and from all sides, until the three found themselves surrounded by others with the same facial marks. All dressed in bloodied, nasty clothing, many of them carrying weaponry; guns, knives, bats, broken bottles, crowbars...you name it, they had it.

"Now...come quietly, and maybe-but probably not-we'll go easy on you. If not, well..."

From behind Dhaos, a familiar voice spoke up. "No foes here...unless you can't get past your own perceptions."

The zombie girl was now standing there, facing the two men.

"Brother Dhaos...Brother Akande. Welcome. Hopefully we will be joined by more soon..."

"This doesn't make any sense." Akande looked around. "Where are the others? Megatron, Ashley-"

"Hmhm. They will join us when they are ready. The two of you, however...I think you are among the few who can do without aggressive persuasion."

"Persuasion to do what? Join your side and become your slaves?"

The girl merely smiled and chuckled. Suddenly, both bracelets fell off their wrists and to the ground, inactive. "Now that you are free, let us have a conversation free of the chains of our captors. Allow your heart to spill forth...your true self."

"..." Moira considered the Batman Who Laugh's words, and by the look on her face, seemed annoyed that she was even humoring hum in this way. But with an agitated sigh, she narrowed her eyes. "Very well. Options are limited enough as it is." And with that, the doctor veered left.

Ashley had made her choice and went into a fighting stance. "If I'm going to die I'm at least taking you assholes with me."

@Yun Lee @Crow @Ottonomous Ghost

"Free of our chains?"
Dhaos asked bemused. "As far as I am concerned, one shackle will be replaced by another." The woman spoke of their true self. "You foolish undead worm. If I had even a fraction of my powers I would burn you with such flames to leave only ash. You mean nothing, your foolish deceptions mean nothing. I will not bow a knee to you or your masters. So consider your little trial done with and end this already."




The Batman Who Laughs only watched the group leave his grin being the final thing they saw from him as they followed the path he had pointed out. Sure enough, as he had promised. In a clearing they could find a large crate that they seemed to be able to open with a little force. The man had promised weapons, but was this another trick from their enemies to give them a false sense of hope?
