[quote=Augusta?]"That's something I've been asking myself since I woke up. This body is more... Glamourous than mine was before all this. I suppose I have the ears for it now. Though..."[/quote]

"[color=skyblue]Wait. So you were... changed?[/color]" Nick did not know that not all of them were as the same as in Earth. He was relieved he stayed the same in this world. At the same time though, he sure could have used some extra features to help him out here. Like a pair of wings or something.

But enough about that, [u]Augusta[/u] somehow identified the creature as a Wretched Experiment. It was... weaker than Nick thought. It was sensitive to light, burns easily, 'Cursed by the Moon' whatever that meant and pretty weak individually. They relied on their quick bursts of speed and numbers to defeat their foes. Which meant this one on its lonesome was nothing to be concerned about.

They left it to [u]Isidore[/u] to take care of it. With the chains he took from the cell they woke up in and a few sleek moves and the Wretched Experiment was down, finished off with a brutal boot to its head. The poor thing did not even stand a chance. Nick pondered why it was named 'Wretched Experiment'. Was it a subject in some insidious procedure? Hold on, how did [u]Augusta[/u] know what it was? Was that her power from the Goddess?

Nick followed [u]Augusta[/u] towards the corpse of the wretched creature. "[color=skyblue]Pretty nice. Where'd you learn to fight like that?[/color]"

[u]Augusta[/u] knelt down and pried the sword from the Wretched Experiment's hand. Its grasp on it was not solid and the blade was taken easily. [u]Augusta[/u] gave it a practice swing before she spoke.

[quote=Augusta]"Right then, gentlemen, shall we make our way out and to somewhere safe? Of course, we could always scout the rest of this place out but... We could always just come back.  This place gives me the creeps but... Well, Isidore, Nick? What do you two think? Oh, and do either of you want to use this?"[/quote]

"[color=skyblue]Yeah, ah, I vote we leave this place as soon as possible. This place is giving me the heebie-jeebies.[/color]" Nick quickly said. He was still feeling anxious but was that because of his power or was it a natural reaction to what just happened? "[color=skyblue]I mean, I bet there's fun taking these things down but I think it's in our best interest to get somewhere safe and get our bearings.[/color]"

[quote=Augusta]"I wouldn't mind using this but if either of you have actual skill with this weapon, that would be best."[/quote]

"[color=skyblue]Well, I can't say I've got skill with swords but I'll take it if neither of you want it.[/color]" Nick wanted the sword to have something to defend himself with. But he kept that to himself, it was probably better if it was in the hands of someone more capable.
