[IC] Fourth Dimension

[PharaohAtem]

Rose had to think quick things where escalating quickly she sighed only having one idea although it put Spike in Danger she knew he could handle himself. Rose then whistled signalling Spike to come to her. Spike heard the whistle and ran to Rose he could easily follow her sent as he got closer he saw Naoto holding a gun and heading for Kristof he ran at him at full speed closing the cap in seconds as the people in the crowed quickly moved out of his fearing he would attack them. Spike then jumped at and pounced on Naoto biting the hand he was holding the gun in. Rose then looked to Kassy and quickly followed her to the food stands. "I think you should just pick the gauntlets out of Kristof pocket it would save some time it would reduce the chances of him getting any more involved once you have them give them to me and we will figure out what to do from their."

[Unraveller]

"I'll have that one please." Kristof had just reached the food stands and found some delicious confections, pies, cakes, brownies, anything sweet and yummy could be found there. And how delighted he was when the man found his favorite treat of all, blueberry pie. Boy they sure do go all out at these conventions, a stray thought that had entered his head as he munched on a slice of pie that tasted and smelt simply divine. Next to impossible for him to explain, his new powers had let him taste and smell fourth dimensional flavors and aromas. Distracted by his thoughts and the prospect of such deserts Kristof notices far too late that the buffet center had nearly emptied out, had he been standing there that long? Then he heard it, "On the ground, hands in the air! I want to see everything you do!" gazing around quickly Kristof notices a single policeman who almost matches his height and physique rushing in his direction. And finally realizes that there is a gun pointed directly at him. Without thinking too much of the situation the muscular man turns about face, seeing not a soul behind him. He turns slowly back to the disgruntled officer, "I know I ate the last slice, but that doesn't call for violence." He says in his usual broken tone. Soon Kristof understands the severity of this situation. " I assure you sir, I may look dangerous, but that's an act." The police officer simply gestures rather menacingly that Kristof needs to be on the ground, well if he isn't interested in receiving a bullet or two. With a resigned attitude the strongman complies, kneeling down and finishing off the last remaining bit of pie before placing his arms behind his head. "And what is it that the TPD (Tokyo Police Department) think I have done this time, friend?" In the past few years they've really been on edge, Kristof recalls the numerous times something like this has occurred to him in this country. He must be cursed.

[The One]

Honobi Mitsuhide Honobi watched as things began getting out of control, he stood up and slowly pulled out his sword, the shine of the metal could be seen if people paid attention enough. He then looked up, he turned his sword so it was the blunt end, to make sure he wouldn't hurt innocents. He then stepped forward slowly, standing beside the cop, looking at Rose. "I will not allow innocents to be hurt, but, I will not attack those who are innocent. I may not know your name, but, I know you are innocent in this matter. Don't force me to fight you. Leave now, and let me deal with things." He looked to the cop, then to the dog. He grabbed it's neck, putting pressure on it's airpipe, as he did, he began to lift him up, making it unable to breath, and eventually, forcing it to let go. He then looked up to the cop. "Leave this girl, your problem does not reside with her. The one in the cloak, she is the thief. From observing the events, she gave the item to that muscle man there without him noticing. These two do not have the item." He looked to the two, then huffed. He then looked back to the cop, then to the muscle man. Slade and Blade The two watched as their weapons were taken off them by a cop, then were given to another man, they both looked up to him, listening to what he had to say, then, they looked to each other with a giggle. Blade stepped back, he pressed his hand together, and then slowly began to separate them, making a sure energy ball, soon, it grew bigger, then began to change shape, until it created a gun. "Here's a fun idea! Let's play cops and robbers. Me and Slade will be the cops, you be the robber. Don't let us kill you!" He giggled, and made another gun, handling Slade, who seemed a little nervous now. He was nowhere near as dangerous as Blade, he was more violent, and prone to hurt others more, although, Blade still saw it as a game. Slade saw it as a game, but, he knew some games could hurt others. Although, Blade was the leader, so, he just nodded, grabbing the gun. Shela Shela watched as a commotion started up, she shivered a little, and slowly got herself up. She walked out of the shadows with her teddy, going over to the samurai and cop. "Sirs, can't this be solved peacefully, if not......then....sorry for bothering you." She looked to the muscle man, and then to her teddy.

[Teknonick]

Naoto "Argg!" Naoto screamed as his hand was bit. He almost reached for his taser, but another man stepped up and interfered, helping him. "Thank you for the assistance. I am going to have to tell you to stand down now, this is official police business, and we have the matter under control." Naoto tried his best to sound formal through the pain in his hand. He picked up his gun off the ground with his other hand as he listened to what the man was saying to him. "If what you say is true, then the man has nothing to fear from the police. If what you say is true, he will be released from custody afterthe matter is settled. But not before." Naoto said, now starting to move closer. He was shocked to see the two women were already at the muscle man, and the cloaked one already snatching the man's bag while he was on the ground. "Hey, stop!" Naoto called out, raising his gun, but it was too late, the woman ducked around a corner. Kassy "Okay, I've got it." Kassy said to Rose, pulling the device out of the bag and handing it over. "You'd better hurry though, from the looks of it things are starting to get out of control...." she said, extremely nervous with all the chaos happening. She had never had anything this serious happen before... she's had guns pulled on her before, but never before has she had anything this crazy happen.

[Unraveller]

Not entirely sure what is occurring though Kristof wishes to comply with the policeman's authority as much as possible, "I know all that I have is my word, but the samurai reenacter is telling the truth. It would seem that we've two thieves on our hands." Maintaining direct eye contact with the injured officer he replaces the serious expression on his face with a gracious smile. "I hope you won't mind, but I'll gladly collect those thieves and place them in your custody. You see the cloaked one, has just stolen a bag of mine, something that I find precious is within." Kristof stood up still staring at the pair of men in front of him arms folded behind his head. He could see in Naoto's eyes that he just couldn't have pulled the trigger, a truly good man. "If you'll excuse me, I haven't much time." The large German man fixes up his suspenders and turns about. Just before he leaves his voice can be heard again, "Oh and little one?" Likely referring to Shela "I won't let anyone here cause anymore violence on this night!" With a flash of a warm smile, he sprints off in the direction, in hopes to catch them by their collars, of the two little thieves who had tricked him earlier. The man is surprising quick for all the bulk, it must be the sugar rush from the pie.

[PharaohAtem]

as Honobi grab hold of Spike and forced him to let go of Naoto Spike the jumped of the ground knocking into Honobi's chin knocking them both down Rose then signalled Spike once more and he cam running to her side. Kassy then handed Rose the gauntlets but things had spiralled out control faster then she expected. Rose quickly put on the gauntlets and pressed a few buttons on the top calibrating them she then raised her left hand and pointed it in the direction of Kristof and the others she then sent out high frequency sound waves directed the others the sound that would be produced was focused in one direction meaning that Rose, Spike and Kassy would not hear it but everyone else would hear a high pitched noise that would sound just like nails on a chalkboard but much louder. she then looked to Kassy and told her to follow her. Rose ran towards where she last saw the store owner who displayed the gauntlets. Rose knew he would have likely ran away but she knew she hat to try and even if he had spike could track his sent as it happened that was unneeded as the man was hiding nearby she could hear the sound of him breathing and ran right towards him once there she took of the gauntlets switched them off and handed them back to him "I am so sorry for the trouble hear are the gauntlets i thought it best to get them back myself to make sure no one mist handled them and caved in this hole building but now it seams my idea has caused way more trouble then I thought so I think I should get going before the cops show up as this will be hard to explain." Rose then looked back to see if Kassy was keeping up with her.

[Unraveller]

Sprinting, his arms swiveling up and down, it seemed as if though Kristof was about to catch up with the two whom he had thought were thieves. As the large man drew close he could see that the young girl clad in black was fiddling with a piece of technology, finally she pointed it in his direction. A calm before the storm, she had stopped moving forward, it was Kristof's time to act. They were almost within his grasp, however, something dreadful had caused him to end the chase. A wave of horrid sound, white noise, flushed over Kristof. His pace slowed, his vision blurred, and his knees weakened. The tower of a man came to a kneel, not unlike the one that Naoto forced him into. The shaken man heaved, a thick red substance coated Kristof's hands as he covered his mouth. He fell to a side, blood dripping from his ears as well. Such a powerful device should never be in the hands of a rash young and unthinking person like they were then. "I guess, I couldn't keep my promise." He spoke weakly, his thoughts turned to the young girl clutching a teddy bear and her wishes of peace.

[RawrgnatheBloodfridge]

Kurano Tanaka Kurano reeled back at the sight of two guns being pulled on him, and pleaded for a bit. "Wait! Wait! Game's have to be fair, right? It's no fun if it isn't fair. So, to make this fair, you, um, have to give me a few seconds headstart. Robbers always have a headstart when I play, and because you picked the game I get to make the rules." Kurano tried whatever he could to somehow get out of his situation. "It's only fair, yeah?" The girl nearby seemed to be in a similar level of stress. Just as Kurano started to back up, he heard a loud screeching noise come from farther away. It caused him to cover his ears, and take the advantage to sprint away. "hey, kid!" He shouted towards the orange haired girl. "Might want to start running!" Minami Shiroka Minami nearly doubled over when something ear-piercingly loud entered her head. She was confused for a moment, but saw that the guy was taking a chance to get out. She panicked for a moment, and then began to chase after him. "Wait!" she called after him. "Why are we playing tag with guns!?" The sound ended, and now a ringing was left in her ears. She could see that a room over, there were people still inside. She ran, hair bobbing and dress flapping, with the man towards the buffet area.

[Teknonick]

Kassy Kassy kept up with Rose as much as she could, which was pretty easy considering she stopped to drop off the gauntlets. She followed after her as they ran, presumably towards the exits. Kassy looked around her, and noticed most of the cops were still dazed, and unaware of where they had gone, but some were passed out, and other's unaffected. "How many of them are there? It looks like there's so many, that they all have reacted differently." Kassy said as she turned back towards Rose as she ran with her. "By the way, why are you helping me? Your'll go to jail too you know. There's no way you can explain any of this." Kassy asked her new 'friend' as they started to near the doors. Naoto What the fu- arrg! This sound... where is it coming from!? I can't... concentrate... I can't... think straight! Naoto screamed within his head. He was kneeling on the ground, grasping his ears in a futile attempt to block out the sound. Even after it had stopped he still heard a deafening ringing, enough to keep him from standing. Why won't it go away!? I can't think straight! he yelled more inside his own head, before letting out a yell audible to everyone else. At which point after his yell, he noticed something strange. He saw the two women bolting for the doors... straight for a swirling vortex they didn't seem to notice. It was a fourth dimensional object... like... a hole through space.... Naoto tried to stand straight and yell out, but he was too paralyzed to stop them.

The Big Event

And now we're back after the short commercial break!

A giant fourth dimensional hole opened up in front of the doors to the building, only visible to those with sight. Those strongly connected with energy could feel a change happening. Those with sound, cannot hear anything yet. The hole stretches, and warps, changing size. After the short few seconds it was happening, it all collapses within itself, revealing a creature in it's place as the hole has disappeared. The creature falls a few feet to the ground, shaking itself and sniffing the air as it takes it it's surroundings. The creature walks on four feet... if that describes it well.... If it were to stand, it would be eight feet tall. It seems to have several extra arms coming out of it's body in random directions, all of which are wrapped around it like it a blanket. It has no eyes, or visible ears, but that doesn't stop it from knowing everything happening around it. It's pale in color, while it's arms are various unnamed colors only those with sight have ever seen. The creature takes a single step forward, and makes a barking sound... a sound only those with sound can hear. It sounds like what one would assume was a demon, combined with what one would think the hounds of hell might sound like. It twitches it's head slightly, before sprinting faster than the human eye could see, then disappearing from it's original location. Through it's movements it smashes past Rose and Kassy, knocking them out of the way like ragdolls, before appearing near one of the group of police. Those that can see it have recovered enough to react, by aiming their guns and firing. As each bullet would seemingly hit the beast, it would move somewhere else nearby. At one point, it ends up next to the cops, and sends out three of it's arms, grabbing three of the cops that saw it, before disappearing to an unknown location, seemingly destroying the cops in a painless death. The monster reappears behind Kurano, facing the two twins. It slowly examines them, while also noting Kurano and the young girl behind him. The creature opens it's mouth, revealing several tongues seemingly moving through each other, as it taunts it's prey, ready to pounce and destroy them in a simple hit.

[RawrgnatheBloodfridge]

Kurano Tanaka Kurano heaved his legs forward as if he were trying to win the hundred meter dash. Though, a noise near petrified him. A hellish barking coming from the entrance. He entered the buffet room and looked down a corridor. Within an instant, three officers completely disappeared as he could hear the sound of snarls. Kurano was about to start moving backwards when he heard steps and a growling sound behind him. One of them is here? Now? I thought they didn't attack in broad daylight. His body was near frozen at the sound of it. The only thing that moved Kurano was a gentle hand grabbing his arm and pulling him. Minami Shiroka "You have to keep going mister! Keep running!" Minami yelled, as she started to drag the almost catatonic man. She breathed in deep to throw him over, but caught a whiff of something near volatile. It smelled almost like death, depression. Horror. She was told these stories by her father, that when a monster was near she would smell something she had never smelled before. Minami acted quickly and tugged as hard as she could on the man's arm. "Hurry up!" Minami made sure she was heard, by pulling out the earplug from the man's right ear. He snapped straight back into reality. Kurano Tanaka Kurano's first instinct was to call out to the two he saw in the room. One looking like the officer he spoke to before. "Hey, help us! One of those things are here! Do something!" Kurano ran next to the man, seeing that he was just as paralyzed. Those officers must have been friends of his, Kurano thought quickly. "Hey, we'll be joining them soon if you don't do something! I have a feeling it's being occupied by something else for now, so do something!"

[PharaohAtem]

Rose Rose, Kassy and Spike ran towards the exit as Rose listened to Kassy "By the way, why are you helping me? Your'll go to jail too you know. There's no way you can explain any of this." Rose looked at her as she replied. "Well I never expected things to get so far out of hand originally all I wanted to do was get the Gauntlets back deactivate them and retune them to their owner before someone got hurt. The only reason I didn't get the cops Involved was because I didn't want to risk then chasing after you and forcing you to run because if you knocked the gauntlets to hard while fleeing the cops you could have knocked the firing mechanism witch could of resulted in the building collapsing on top of us. The way I saw it this was the safest option but I never thought things would tune out like this" as Rose finished talking something barged past her sending her flying back into a wall. Rose slammed her left shoulder she let out a small screamed as she hit the ground. Rose struggled to her feet and took a look around she then saw three cops disappear into thin air she knew this could only mean one thing she looked around for Kassy once she saw her she ran over to her just then she stopped in her tracks hearing the bests roar coming from the room the others where in "shit this is bad they wont have fully recovered yet I have to do something" "you should get out of hear one of those fourth dimensional monsters is hear and judging force of it running into us and the sound of its roar its huge." with that Rose and Spike ran back to the room where she left the others picking up a glock 9mm pistol that one of the cops dropped with her right hand. Once Rose had made it back to the other room she looked around but of course she could not see it Rose closed her eyes and listened for the sound of its heartbeat once she had found it she opened her eyes. realising it was behind Kurano Rose then aimed the gun as she shouted "GET DOWN" Rose shouted as loud as she could then fired the gun right at the monster.

[Teknonick]

The Monster Poor defenseless creatures. It hurts me so to do harm to such creatures unaware of their utter foolishness. But alas, I have been chosen as our next hero. the monster thought to itself as it stepped towards the twins once more. "Get down!" a loud voice called from some woman. The creature didn't pick up the sound, but it felt the voice. It failed to notice the voice was that of a warning, as a bullet shot at it. The monster very plainly took the shot, doing a little bit of damage to it. The monster quickly turned towards the shooter, Rose, launching himself into the air, before moving through the fourth dimension and appearing within feet in front of her, crashing into the ground and sending her into the air. The beast quickly snatched her from the air, then started to fade into the fourth dimension with her in his grasp. it disappeared for a few milliseconds, then reappeared. Rose remained floating in the air as he continued to hold onto her. What's going on? This one is different! Why can't I... move it! the creature screamed, before rapidly flashing in and out of the fourth dimension where it currently stood, attempting to move her, which failed every time. With it's anger reaching it's peak point, he launched her at the twins, knocking them over instantly like bowling pins. t figured they would be injured enough not to cause anymore problems, so it turned to it's next victim. Naoto Naoto was completely frozen. He could see again, he could move... but his brain hurt. "Hey, we'll be joining them soon if you don't do something! I have a feeling it's being occupied by something else for now, so do something!" a voice yelled at him, telling him to act. Naoto blinked a few more times, before taking control once more and robotically aiming his gun at the monster. He let three shots fire after Rose had shot at it just a split second before him, but each of his bullets missed as the creature vanished instantly after her shot. Naoto quickly found where the monster was after it had moved, but it was too late as it tossed the woman at the two helpless children. "Oh my god." Naoto said, wide eyed. Naoto aimed his gun again, letting loose a barrage of bullets from his clip. Soon he ran out, after each bullet had missed. The creature appeared to simply step out of the way, as if it were an every day occurrence. The creature turned to Naoto, and licked it's lips as it barked at him. Naoto didn't hear it's sound, but figured from it's mouth's movements. "We should run." he said to the boy beside him as he emptied his clip and started loading in another one as he started to move backwards.

[RawrgnatheBloodfridge]

Kurano Tanaka Kurano ducked instinctively as a bullet whizzed over his head. he turned to look at the source of the bullet, and shots rang out from the officer he had just spoken to. Kurano covered his right ear, which rang from the sound of the pistol being fired. a foreign girl with a guard dog it looked like, was the one who shouted at him. Perhaps a hunter of the creatures? Though, as Kurano thought this, his hope was near instantly dashed. Within a single moment, the girl seemed to disappear. Kurano could hear the faint sounds of snarling before she was sent flying towards the two demonic children. Kurano would have uttered a sigh of relief if he were in different circumstances, though now something was more apparent to him. This one didn't seem as random as the other reports he had read. Kurano nearly went into shock again, but an adrenaline began to flow through him. His head pulsed, and his limbs began to go numb. He heard the officer say something for only a moment before more shots were fired. Kurano ducked and moved towards a table to get underneath it, grabbing the orange-haired girl's shaking arm. A near ferocious sound came from the beast another time, and Kurano heard the officer's advice loud and clear through the ringing. "We should run." Kurano's heart had started to pound harder and louder. He nodded towards the policeman and stood up from his position. "I'll make sure she gets out of here with us. A kid doesn't deserve to die to one of those things. And neither do you, sir." He made sure to get a firm grip on the girl's hand and started to make towards the hallway leading to the entrance. Kurano could see a few officers down and out on the ground, likely trying to recover from whatever that blast was earlier. He went to swoop in for one of the pistols laying on the ground. Minami Shiroka Minami covered her ears and nearly fell to the ground once the policeman emptied as many rounds as he could into thin air. She had no idea what anyone was doing, but Minami could tell something evil was in the room. her arm was grabbed forcefully, and she was nearly dragged under a nearby table, before the man dragging her stood up. He looked down at Minami with a determined look, and started to dash towards the entrance. Minami tried her best to keep up, his grip tugging on her arm as they ran.

[Teknonick]

{Monster} You'd better run now while you can, foolish human. I feel no pain in harming you, you filthy monster! the monster thought angrily towards himself when he had turned to Naoto. The man shot several shots at it, but each one was easily dodged. The monster stepped forward slowly, then faded into the fourth dimension for a split second, reappearing a few feet where he had started, but already set in a full sprint towards Naoto. Naoto finished loading another clip, and was now stepping backwards much faster. [Kassy] "Rose..." I tried to call out. I slowly stood up after the ram the monster had done to me, I noticed I had cuts and bruises all over myself after the hard landing. "Rose... are you okay?" I asked, slowly walking while I tried to follow her. I noticed one of the police men had his gun readied, and was firing at the air. Two other people were sprinting towards the door. I sensed a bizarre feeling... the same one I had felt when encountering the other monsters before. I could feel it was moving towards the police officer at a rapid pace... but... I could feel more than that.... "Officer! I know what you have to do! Stop moving backwards, move forward!" I yelled at the cop, trying to explain to him what I was feeling. "Wait, what!? Are you insane!" the officer yelled as it let his second clip fly. I held my ears as he did so, and felt the monster was drawing closer. "Just do it, it'll work!" I yelled at him, but he shoot his head and ignored me, moving backwards faster now. I sighed. I raised my hands in the air, adjusting the energy I could feel within the room. I felt a spot behind the cop, and sent a strong force into it to send a blow to the officers back, sending him lightly forward at the monster once the monster was nearly on top of him... luckily, just before the cop was almost ready to side-step out of the way. My plan, appeared to work. {Monster} Yes, keep retreating! the monster thought as the human officer stepped faster backwards after the other human spoke to it. The monster couldn't hear what they said, but whatever it was was bad advice if it sent him farther away. The monster was about to ram into Naoto, but suddenly a small burst of energy sent Naoto towards the monster at the last second. "Wait, stop!" the monster screamed in his tongue, as he screeched with his feet like brakes, sensing a false surge of power being sent towards him. The monster moved through the fourth dimension, and reappeared closer towards the entrances near Kurano and Minami. How did he- how could he send energy at me? He senses sound! the monster thought incorrectly. Naoto was pushed forward, not sending in an attack... [Naoto] "Why did you do that!?" Naoto screamed at the girl Kassy as he loaded another clip. "It worked, right? You're not hit? I can't feel him in front of you anymore." the girl talked back. "Shh! You were just lucky he moved at the last second." Naoto told her. Naoto turned quickly, with his gun readied, looking for the monster. When he spotted the monster, the monster was standing and panting next to the retreating civilians. "Look out, he's right next to you!" Naoto called out, aiming his gun. He wanted to shoot, but the two were too close.... Why isn't it moving? It's like it's... thinking.... Arg, move already, I have a clear shot! <Kristof>: A man popped out from behind an overturned table, wearing medical gear and shaky glasses. "Oh. I don't hear him. Must be my chance to get out now!" the man spoke, ducking back down before leaping over the table shortly afterwards, holding a bag of medical equipment. A syringe fell out and landed next to you. The man heard it before it hit the ground, sliding with his feet to a stop. "No no, not that one! I need that one to get out of here!" he whispered angrily at you, as if you had pulled it from his bag yourself. He set his bag down and sprinted the two feet and snatched it up. He turned on his heels and almost left you, but stopped in freeze-frame with his right leg stretched out behind him. "Wait, you can be another distraction." he then turned back around at you. "I'm hear the fourth dimension... so that makes me a high priority target... if I revive you... you might do me a favor and take a hit for me..." he talked to your knocked-out body. He spun towards you and dove for the ground next to you, landing on his knees and readying his syringe. "Hope this works on you big guy, I'm not used to working on so much fat." he continued as he stabbed the device into a vein and emptied it into your blood. "Okay... opportune time in... three... two... one... WAKE UP!!" he counted, then yelled at you at the very last second, which is exactly when your body takes in the most of the medicine at the same time, enabling most of your senses for a split second... allowing you to hear his extremely loud and annoying voice as he yelled for you to wake up at exactly the pitch time.

". . . Keep my promise." The last words Kristof thought that he would ever say. On the brink of death's door the man stood stalwart. A shining tower in the looming darkness. The gates had opened to him and within, a sight brought the manly man to tears. A figure outreaches from beyond the threshold, beckoning him within. He strides forward, this was his time. However, something, some dark grasp took hold of the man, dragging him away from that which he sought. Further and further away from the door, Kristof finally broke the deafening silence as tears ran down his face, "Sie haben immer noch von mir, und ich will mit dir eines Tages wieder Alessa zu sein!" This was not his time. "WAKE UP!!" a man loomed over, screaming at the bulky German. Kristof sat up from his fetal cradle. And after mumbling something in German glances directly toward the man who had rescued him from happiness, a fire of frustration lingered in his just-resuscitated milky eyes. Blood is caked upon his face from the earlier attack. In his usual, albeit weakly, broken Japanese Kristof spoke, "Must have been something in that pie." He chuckled softly before standing up, removing the tingling syringe from his arm he gave a cursory glance around the hall, chaos it would seem, people were running from something he could not see. And others attempting to injure it, how strange. Then it hit him. An acrid odor that permeated his very being. The foul taste of death. Placing his large hands upon the doctor's shoulders he spoke, "Quickly, tell me all that has occurred here!"

[RawrgnatheBloodfridge]

Minami Shiroka Minami attempted at her best to keep up, swinging her free arm as hard as she could to help her legs push harder. The man let go of her arm almost causing her to fall over. He swung his own arms around, and reached for a gun on the floor near some cops. Minami looked around, and could see the very large man being attended to by a doctor. Or, maybe the doctor was telling him something? Minami couldn't quite tell. Suddenly, her arm was clutched again, she yelped, thinking that it was whatever invisible thing was in the building. "Why did we stop? Is something wrong?" She asked him, looking upwards into his distraught face. Kurano Tanaka Where is the damn thing? Come on, make some noise. Kurano pulled out his left earplug with the hand he was currently holding a rather shiny revolver in. The cops don't go lightweight, apparently. His sound could now be amplified, as he focused on the noises that the beast had made before. Growling, snarling, it sounded very animal-like. He focused on this, and could see that the girl was asking him something. He turned to face her, and thought for a moment. He grabbed Minami's hand once again. "I had to catch my breath," he said, turning his attention to the gun in his possession. Kurano looked towards the end of the hallway where the officer was, hearing him shout out, "look out, he's right next to you!" Kurano panicked, and shot off his gun towards the right. The sound of the gun nearly popped his ear drums. He dropped the gun, and fell to the ground, covering his ears. Why do I have to be so stupidly sensitive to this crap?! He thought, trying to drown out the ringing again. He reached for his pockets, and pulled out his earplugs again. His hand shaking as he did so, remembering suddenly what the officer shouted before his panic. "Drop down kid!" He yelled to Minami, as he felled her onto himself.

[Teknonick]

<Kristof>: "Eeh, uhh...." the doctor squealed, looking up at your face as you towered over the man easily. "Eeeh... caa... your arm...." the man tried to speak, looking over at your giant hand on his shoulder. He appeared to be slightly afraid... but... it wasn't just that. Embarrassment, perhaps? "Uh... yeah, the pie did it." he said very quickly, trying to free himself from your light grasp and towering position. "Um... what happened... uh... sounds... scary sounds... then cops disappeared... then... some people are still here... and... they're all fighting..." he said, looking at the ground and kicking his feet now. <Kurano>: After Kurano's shot went off, the creature seemed to move slightly... but you're unsure of whether or not the bullet him. After you decide to drop to the ground, and yell for the other kid to drop down, the bullets rang through the air, hitting almost exactly where you had shot before, meaning the monster probably hadn't moved enough to dodge it. Suddenly, you felt movement around you, but not of the monster, as it rushed up towards the beast, sending him away. [Kassy] "Let's see if this works!" Kassy called out right after the cop shot at the monster. She pulled in energy around the kids nearby, shoving it towards the monster. The monster flinched at it, and side-stepped out of the way before reappearing elsewhere in the room. He was now standing much closer to Kurano, but paying little attention to him. "Quick, quick, now's your chance to get out here!" she yelled at the two kids. She started to sprint for the exit herself... but couldn't help but think about the musclehead and the doctor. Should I go back? she slowly though as she ran away. [Naoto] Naoto shot after the beast as he had a chance to hit it now. He had seen the kid's first shot hit it, which was surprising. The monster flinched at it, but didn't react beyond that. Naoto's shots all hit the creature, starting to wake it back up from whatever thought process it was going through. One hit the head, where an eye might be, revealing some sort of glowing... stuff... inside. It seemed to change colors, and move around on it's own. It appeared to want to escape from the shell of the body, like blood, but it pulled itself back in before it did. What in the world is that? {Monster} This is something I've never seen before, it's just not possible! Maybe the ancients lied to me? the creature thought as bullets were shot at it and hit it several times. It felt the last one hit a sensitive spot, making him flinch more. Then, suddenly, what appeared to be from his perspective, the two kids beside him lunged themselves at him, forcing himself to react and back away before traveling through the fourth dimension. He arrived next to Kristof, and the doctor. Maybe... maybe they know what they were doing! Maybe they're tricked us and have continued farther in their searches! Perhaps now they know what they are doing, and only wish to destroy our realm! If the ancients didn't know this, then I must retreat and warn them! the creature continued it's conversation with itself inside it's head. He let out a loud roar, louder than before, as well as a horrible release of his smell. He continued for several seconds. He could feel the smell he was creating had more to it, as it all clumped together, and started becoming a physical object... a sort of hole.... It was building up slowly, but not big enough for him to retreat into.

The large man glared at the strangely embarrassed doctor. Was it something he had said? Wriggling himself from Kristof's grasp the strange, sad little man jumbled his words, maybe he wasn't used to seeing such a manly German. Unable to truly decipher any of the doctor's words from a combination of his mediocre understanding of the Japanese language as well as his savior's frightened speech, he simply patted the man upon his shoulders and thanked him, although a feeling of disappointment came over Kristof, so wishing to see the one he loved again. A stench that seemed almost evil crept from behind the bulky man. Caressing his olfactories with sweet mind numbing decay. It was as if the festering corpse of a skunk had been vomited on by innumerable human babies. But there was also a hint of cheap air freshener that simply made it worse. Needless to say it reeked something fierce. Kristof choked on the sulfurous stench, however another evil lurked upon the horizon, a lingering taste that could only be described as, "Much worse" invaded his lungs. The very air had become stale, this was something vile. Slowly turning to face the unknown the horrendous stench only grew from there. Standing firm Kristof was surprised when he had seen nothing, yet he could tell that this point in space directly in front of him was the source of the olfactory destroyer. Quickly glancing over to the doctor who had now been reduced to a mess, kneeling on the hall grounds clasping hands upon his ears, a solitary pointing finger at the very same direction of the odor was all Kristof needed. With all of the built man's might he charged, shoulder pointed at the direction of this invisible evil. He had just arrived from the brink of death, it was clear that he would be needed. Kristof closed his eyes and put all the fury built up in his mind after the doctor had stolen him from death.

Kurano Tanaka Kurano was starting to get tired of dropping to floor almost every twenty seconds, before a whiz of shots flew overhead. They all disappeared the moment he could hear something make a sort of flesh-piercing noise, despite nothing being there. The beast really was right behind him. Kurano lifted himself up, slowly, putting his earplugs in. He lifted up the little girl, and heard someone shout out at him. "quick, quick, now's your chance to get out of there!" Kurano didn't take another second to react, before a deafening roar let loose. The girl ran forward as Kurano could still hear it's piercing sound despite his ear plugs holding it back. He felt like he knew the exact spot where the monster now was, as he grabbed the revolver from the floor once more. He steadied his grip, about to pull the trigger and fire into the invisible creature once more. Kurano's expression changed, seeing a large foreign man running almost straight at him. Can this guy see it? Or is he just going to tackle me for no reason? Kurano hesitated, not knowing whether the beast would just move straight out of his way once he fired. He didn't want to hit the tank-like man running straight for it with an almost triumphant stride to his step, but Kurano had to take the chance. The man likely wasn't going to stop. His pointer finger pulled down on the trigger, the hammer of the weapon about to send a bullet either into the man, or into the invisible creature. His hope being that the metal would disappear mid-air.

<Kristof>: With your sudden charge at the monster, the doctor literally dives behind a nearby table, expecting some sort of explosion about to happen with your shear strength and size about to ram the monster. The moment you make contact, the monster's portal closes. The monster didn't expect your attack... nor, where you ready for it take the attack as badly as it had. Your shoulder had minimal pain done to it as the monster was smashed by your attack, despite it's massively much bigger size. <Kurano>: The large man makes contact just after your bullet disappears, but seemingly farther away than were you expected the monster to be.... The monster stopped it's horrifying scream, and changed into a sort of painful whimper as it was crushed by the German strongman. [Naoto] Naoto saw the strongman charge the monster, and the young boy shoot at it. The bullet traveled fast, but it disappeared into the hole before it close afterwards. The strongman seemed take off a few pounds after the monster, as it was crushed like an insect much smaller than itself. Naoto lowered his own weapon as he knew the fight was over. The monster laid still after the powerful impact. How... did he deal that much damage? Naoto thought to himself, as it appeared the battle was over finally.
