<span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td>Open to everyone, 4 max ^^ :D Dyo (Spring), 49/79</td></tr></table> The lab wasn't very large considering the size of most others in existance. It consisted of a few aluminum tables with vials of colored liquids, some computer equipment, and a large capsule with a fogged up window. There were power cables with duct tape securing them to the floor straying everywhere, and a large circuit breaker beside the capsule. To complete the scene, a large touch screen sat on one of the tables, beside a small pot of bubbling green liquid and some spreadsheets. The small lab was set up in the farthest corner of the basement levels, where nobody would ever WANT to go. There wasn't much movement, besides the bubbling of some chemicals and something moving around inside the fogged up window of the capsule...
A white 'dragon was wandering the corridors. It was the third day at the Academy and she was still getting used to it. She had a photogenic memory. All the places she had been so far in the school she remmebred how to get there. She was curious about the rest of the school other than her class routes were like. Her wings and tail twitched in anticipation of searching the school and finding things. She loved exploring places unknown to most. Though most everyone had seen the school already, she planned to visit a few more places, rarely seen by students that still attended the school... Her white fur stood on end as she turned a corner and saw teacher just walking into there sleeping quarters... Her fur smoothed out as she wasn't seen. She wasn't expecting anyone to be awake at this time of night. Her wispy skeletal wings lagged behind her as she trotted past the dorm room hallways. She had two sets of wings, hard to see in the darkness... In the dark it just looked as if she had four wing bones sticking from her back. The skin that held them together were almost invisible. Her bottom wings were smaller than the top bigger wings but she decided she woundl't need them at the moment. they disapeared at will... Both pairs of them. Her split tail swayed behind her and the two blood red tail flames shined a bit of light on the walls around her. She thought they were quite a nuisance. She was coming up to a small dark passage off the the side. It had a sign on it saying "<span style='color:red'>Staff Only"</span>. She chuckled and opened the door slowly, not making any noise. She slipped passed the door and shut it as silently as she opened it. She glided down the stairs and looked around. Curious as to the mysteries she would find down here.
The Lab Suddenly burst into life. A small vial of a purple chemical was lifted and poured into another green fluid filled beaker with a mechanical hand, which was then transferred into a strange machine connected to the capsule. The cords on the floor were now humming with power, and the touch screen was active, a glowing panel of scientific numbers and codes. There were two buttons active at the moment, "Begin", and "Alter and Begin". The chemicals were being mixed together seemingly haphazardly by mechanical arms, which then transferred the new mixtures into the machine attached to the capsule. A small laptop hooked up to the touch screen displayed "Genetic Material Analyzed, Experimental Stage Of Operation 'Helix' Alpha Ready. Start Experiment Using Touch Panel." There was still movement from within the capsule, a dark shape, unrecgonizable...
The white femme saw the that the end of the hall was illuminated with green and pruple light. A few flashes apeared from a door at the end of the hall. She sank onto her hanched as she crawled to the door. Her tail swayed behind her up in the air as she leaned her head around the door fram and looked into the chemical lab. The lights looked like disco lights... Had she stumbled apon a time warp back about 30 years? No... She said to herself but still alloud. ~This is someones genetics lab... I wonder.. who- She thought. Her thought was cut off as she saw a disfigured form behind a couple screens... In the darkness... She cocked a brow and focused her eyes on it. She couldn't see it clearly for it stood behind a few things. She slunk into the room and crouched behind a few large objects. She stummbled over her foot and hit a barrel. She didn't know what was in it but the barrel but she dug her claws into it and stoped it from falling over... There was a small container with a black liquid in it. It spiral from the barrel and was about to hit the floor... She leaped and tryed to catch it but ended up bumping it over the dark creatures head and pourd into his solution he was creating. She held her breath and slunked back into the corners of the room as the solution fell all over the creature. His skin looked like it was writhing. Her eyes went wide...
The creature twitched and sparked for a few seconds, the potent mutagen warping it's already dead skin. It was one of the horrible monstrosities created in this lab before. It eventually stopped writhing, but the mutation seemed to have sparked something else, more recent. The capsule began lighting up, glowing with a eerie green glow, a humming beginning to become audible. The touch screen began flashing, and the latop began humming with strain...
Temyc walked the halls silenty. His modded rifle raised. He hoped to not come in contact with any lost members or Teslos...or Spider bots...or those really large ones. All he wanted was to find what was lost of his from long ago. Then....a clunk...water like sounds? He followed a light. His glasses on and his scarf pulled over his muzzle. He turned the corner, and walked in. Empty it appeared..but something was..."moving" in a capsule. He moved behind a device and hid too..not noticing the White 'dragon in a corner. He watched the writhing beast.
the femme's skin seemd to illuminate from the glow that acted like a black light... She gasped and tryed to conseal herself as the other 'dragon came in. She was surprised that he didn't notice her... But it was better that way she thought. She watched the creature as it stopped moving... She didn't really want to know what it had become... or what it might become... She cringed at the final writhing movement of its body. It sounded like every molecule had re-aranged... She didn't know why something like this would make her cringe... For she had seen many peoples innards and such... When her weapons had made the same sounds through the body meat and the crackling of the bones as they broke never seemed to bother her when SHE was the one doing it... what is that thing.... She said quietly to herself... She wished the creature would move into the light so she could see it....
Suddenly The entire lab shook. The touch screen activated itself as if an invisible hand had pressed "begin". Beakers shattered and machinery shook as the contents of the machine attached to the capsule were injected into the creature inside. The capsule shook, and then with a hiss the front hatch opened in a cloud of steam, revealing a black cloaked figure, who towered over everyone in the room. Large razor sharp claws extended from the folds of the cloak, and two red eyes gleamed from within the cowl. It took a few steps, and then after eying the two intruders up, spoke in a strangely smooth and calm voice. <span style='color:green'>What are you two doing in my labratory? Didn't you see the sign that said staff only? You will submit to a mind wipe right now, or I'll be forced to kill you two.</span> The figured stepped out of the capsule, and one could see the clawed, short black haired feet, standing on the front pads, supporting the monster. It turned towards Temyc, and in a flash, had crossed the distance and had swiped his rifle out of his hands. It growled at him, and then turned to Telbaj. It began stalking forwards mumbling to itself as it came closer to her. <span style='color:green'>Speed and Strength up 150%... Endurance to be determined... Body Form peak condition. Calcium at optimal levels. Bone density heavy, excellent, muscular power at plus 500%.. Good...</span> It stalled for a second, and after examining it's mamoth 10 or 11 inch claws it brought them down upon a random table covered with a pencil holder and a calculator. The table split in half before the actual blow even came, the aluminum halves falling with a clatter to the floor. <span style='color:green'>Claw structure and durability excellent. increase iron and titanium levels by 20% in next phase however for optimal performance.</span> It began it's stalk towards Telbaj again, this time the red eyes slightly wrinkled underneath the black hood, probably because it was grinning evily, as it strode a metre with every stride...
Temyc stood and pulled something out of jacket. An interesting tool he found in here awhile ago. It was circular and made out of a shiney metal. He touched a button and out shot a dozen blades that would make it excellent weapon. He thru the bladed disc at the creature knowing it most likley wont kill him but help the girl escape if it distracted him. <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td> <_< I know that device was in the Predator movies, but I love predator so shutttt upppp</td></tr></table> "Leave her alone" <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td>edited on wednessday 3/30/04 at 9:48 pm...changed the last paragraph</td></tr></table>
Telbaj gritted her teeth. She crouched and let her wings apear. They twisted from the air and seemed to attatched themselves to her body. With the extra pair of wings her speed was a formidable force... Her shapeshifting wasn't a bad asset either... Her body morphed as her eyes caught the other 'dragons weapon make its way to the creature. Her body seemed to slither with her wings making her speed through the creatures strides. She zoomed under a table and crossed the room in a flash. She stoped and slid back, facing the creature as she changed back and took out her gun. She slammed a mod pack onto the gun and morphed it into a larger gun. She clicked in amunition and took a shot with her silent explodsive bullets. How such a thing was invented was behond her knowlage of how much her clan loved to expiriment with the forces of nature and combine them with mech technology. The only way it could make noise was if it exploded something else that would actually break. She thought that the creature, at its monstrosity of a hight would probably not even be fazed with her bullets, but it was a chance she had to take. She didn't wish to be the gum between its metal claws when she still had to much life and many more peoples to kill...
The Creature halted. <span style='color:green'>Stamina test begining.</span> The discs sliced into it's arm, flinging them backwards. The beast grinned, a wide toothy smile as it pulled the small devices out of it's skin before the skin healed over them. A small prod from it's claw and the skin healed perfectly. The short fur grew back instantly and there was no trace of a scar. The creature grinned excitedly and did a commando roll to avoid the gunfire knowing the effects it would have on it's beautiful new strong body. It turn it's head towards the two, with a big grin consisting of pearly white fangs all slightly curved backwards. It was a sight to behold, right before it suddenly bolted forwards and swatted both of them to each side, Temyc to the right into a large vat of something, denting the container, and Telbaj left, to skid across the floor. It reared up and howled triumpantly to the roof. <span style='color:green'>Nasul Hygat is No more! The Velvet Beast is ALIVE!</span> It turned to temyc first, and began thrusting a claw forwards into his gut, the razor sharp pearly weapon threatening to pour his organs out onto the cement floor...
Temyc's eyes went winde and he rolled to the floor. He pulled out his knife and held it up eye level reached outwards to atleast swipe at the creature if he dare moved to come near him. He reached into his pocket slowly for something.
Telbaj rolled and slammed into the side wall. HEr body was rolled up into a ball. She unrolled almost imediately and watched as the claws penetrated the other 'dragon's body. She grimaced at it and then looked at the creature bearing down apon the 'dragon. She growled and took out her gun once more. She chagred and jumped onto the creature. She sent a bullett into its back and jumped back, sending one into its head. She held her gun out at the ready....
The Monster halted it's attack and leaped to the side, before launching itself off a table with only a toe and tackling Telbaj into another large steel container. He stepped back, and snatched her gun, his claws shortening somehow to freely grip the handle. <span style='color:green'>Stage Alpha, Obtained Successfully. Upon Sedation or eradication of target intruders, proceed with Phase Beta, refinement stage.</span> The Velvet Monster slowly lowered the gun to point it at Telbaj, but suddenly fell over sideways awkwardly. <span style='color:green'>Unexpected mutation, countering genetic defect.</span> The Beast let the gun clatter to the floor, and dashed over to a table within a split second, before carefully examining and selecting a few different colored chemicals, placing them in a syringe, and plunging the syringe into His bicep, injecting the contents straight into the bloodstream. The strange hump on the right thigh dissappeared, and The Monster turned slowly to face Telbaj. It seemed to have ceased talking to itself, and It's red eyes glimmered with sanity and knowledge. <span style='color:green'>You know, you two shouldn't be down here, why did you interfere with my experiment? Should I go report you two to a teacher?</span> It seemed to have not realised it had stated all it's attributes out loud, seeming perfectly logical.
Temyc watched him silently. "Im just looking for something that is mine...." he said bluntly. He rolled a flash bang into his hand and held it from view his glasses and scarf still on. "I dont want any trouble....and I dont think this poor girl wants any too."
Telbaj hit the ground, surprised and breathless. She looked at the giant beast as it jumped off her and pointed the gun at her face. she glared at it and watched with a smirk as a mutation accured and screwed up its balance. She took the time and grabbed her gun. She hung it back on her belt and crouched reacy to move for another attack. When the other pendragon talked she took "the poor girl" quite badly. She hated when people seemed to put down girls because they were "the frail and non-fighting" people of their race. She could hold her own! and if she died then so be it. It was her time and she wasn't afraid to die... Her body morphed again and the cloud like mass of particals of her body move and slithered quikly to the door. It only lasted a second and she seemed like she had transported herself into another spot. Her body returned back to its normal shape as her feet landed on the floor. She had needed to move from the corner in the range of the beast... <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td> sorry guys.. didn't know really what to do... </td></tr></table>
The Velvet Monster frowned. , his brow creasing with distaste. <span style='color:green'>I'm serious here kids, Don't make me report you!</span> He began walking towards the stairs, pretending he was about to tell. This was no time for games, and he sure as hell wasn't going to play any. He had to proceed with Phase Beta... With a leap he was at the door, not only following through with his bluff, but blocking the single entrance from the chamber... Behind his back his claws extended again, growing to a few feet in size again...
Temyc blinked and sighed. "Fine..Im sorry...I will leave...do what you want...." Then he threw the flashbang and charged the creature with a leg up to shove him into the steps.
Two deep red eyes opened and shone from the sadows by the stairs. A deep growl emitted as a rugged looking black dragon stepped out. his hoarse voice gave off the impression that he hadn't spoken for a few years. <span style='color:red'>It seems as though a school's basement is no longer a secluded space for a convict to rest i see.</span> His voice gruff like that of one that had seen many bad things and didn't care much more. Scars ran across his body and he squinted when he stepped into the light. He moved in a quadpidal form. He saw the beast and yawn in boredom. He noted the girl with the gun and the boy with the flashbang. Drsuj could care less.
