Sectonia managed to save a few of her minions with her little plan. After all, while these creatures barreled down with much force, they were not all that threatening without any control behind it. With her flying above with Necronomicon, who was thoroughly enjoying Sectonia's little platform summoning skill, something she had to do a few more times when prudent so the others could get up the mountain unharmed.

Once they had reached and passed the starting line that these 'racers' were coming from and were out of that hazard course, the group took a bit of a break to relax a bit before the next part of their travels. "I have known much better 'jesters', those weren't even worthy of being fools. " Sectonia said, looking behind where they had come from at Midna's remarks more or less agreeing with the imp.

--------------------------

As they progressed further, they found a bear resting in the middle of the path. A very large bear that was even bigger than Sectonia herself. IT was sleeping however, and while it seemed to be at peace, many of the others were deciding how they should go about dealing with this thing. Some were poking it to no avail, Midna was going to make it sneeze, and others just wanted to fly over the thing if possible or even fight it. Sectonia did have a few ideas of her own. "Well if you can hold it down, I suppose my new secretary could brainwash it. Although I feel we would still need to fight it a bit even in that case." Sectonia offered. "Otherwise while I could defeat it without issues since I'm sure it can't fly, you all would be in quite a bit of trouble." So with that, her plan was to mind control the thing, if the others little schemes didn't work. Heck, if her plan worked, she would have quite the wall for a minion.

Level 9 Blazermate - (81/90)

Words: NA

Blazermate was having a bit more fun that she should've cleaning up the remaining Murlocks while the others dealt with the larger threats. At first she figured that skeleton with the anchor was going to be an enemy, but he ended up helping in the end, a welcome sight in this frankly disgusting rotting island. With a combination attack from frankly, most of the group, Tidehunter went down with Link getting the final blow, Peach showing a, very spooky, ability to conjure a weak point when there wouldn't be one, and one that was just as critical as a medal to boot! She wasn't that strong or could take many hits, but making a weakness out of where there wasn't one was quite something for sure.

Bowser meanwhile was acting like the big heroic teddy bear he was, showing compassion for a giant monster that was, frankly quite rude to the king and Bowser suffering some damage for his attempts at being a paragon. It was a good thing he was a tough turtle... thing, otherwise he couldn't take risks like that with Kamek thinking the same thing. Still, his efforts were in vein and they had to end up killing the thing anyway. With the battle over, Blazermate called all of her undead murlocs over while she got to healing up everyone's damage, having a special word for Bowser. "Aw, you tried, thats what matters." And Kamek, who while he didn't need healing, he did aid the others and as such Blazermate got a bit of a side word with the koopa mage. "I know he doesn't like being called this, but Bowser is just a big lovable tough teddy bear isn't he?". She'd show a smile, if she had any facial expressions to give on, so Kamek could only go by her tone.

Blazermate had no desire for any of the spirits herself outside of grabbing one of those lanterns Link had gotten, not as good as a flashlight, but it'd do in a pinch. Tidehunter out of all of them did spook her the most though; why did his big attack have to be TENTACLES? Its always tentacles... so instead she spent her time healing and playing with her new undead murloc thralls. She found they were very organized for zombies, all things considered, but she only has a small squad of them, so they probably wouldn't last long. Nor were they even strong enough to carry the medabot, so she had to catch her ride on Bowser again.

----------------------

It didn't take them too long to get to the next area, some of the group apparently smelling quite ripe over all the disgusting stuff they had to wade through. Thankfully none of this bothered Blazermate at all, there were advantages to having a smelling system you could just turn off! But still, that didn't help how disgusting this all was. "Ugh... If I got more control over this suffering arm, do you think I could raise all the dead stuff here and make short work of the boss?" Blazermate said, trying to say something to get everyone's mind off the disgusting sight in front of them, with these ghostlike eels that looked like trouble just slithering around everything in front of them.

Thanks to Blazermate's Ubercharge, Mirage was able to free his own leg, getting the creative idea to blow up the coral snake grabbing onto him with an explosive, launching himself unharmed out of the danger area and towards where they had come in. Using what Ubercharge she had left, Blazermate went to touch the crack in the area, a ghost coming out and immediately flying at one of the big enemies that had just appeared. Seeing as no one really needed too much in the way of healing now, Blazermate moved to summon another ghost, and another. After the third ghost though, she had to get back to healing people as the new contenders were causing issues.

She joined the frey with Bowser and Co, using their attacks and a few bites from her shield to raise a few more murloc zombies as she healed and overhealed Bowser and his son, who would probably be involved in the next few fights. Geralt was another big target now, but her shield could help defend if he came under attack, Blazermate wasn't sure how much damage he would take, while she did know how badly Bowser tended to get hurt.

There really wasn't too much for Sectonia in this town, at least not like the others. Sure her minions complained about this or that, but what they complained about she could do anyway so she didn't see much of a problem here. Still making introductions to her new two minions, Sora and Raz, was a good idea. Sora being a bit more... energetic than she was expecting. She probably should've known that, thanks to his goofy outfit, he would be a bit of a fool, but she had learned over the past couple days you can't take anything in this world at face value. (Although a lot of things did need to be beautified...) While Sectonia didn't show the same enthusiasm as Sora, her hands could handle his shake, almost to the point where Sectonia questioned if the lack of arms and his hidden strength caused this whole situation? Well anyway... "Good to work with you. Lets see if that enthusiasm will help you with whats to come." Sectonia said, being formal, but letting on that whats coming up might be tougher than this kid would be expecting.

Meanwhile Raz, her other new minion, was a lot more mature for being, frankly, younger looking. A bit more her style of a minion, jsut something had to be fixed with his outfit... Most outfits she found needed to be redone out of all of her minions. If only she had the resources of Floralia... Well that wasn't much to think about. "And good to meet you too Raz. Lets see what you can do."

===============================

As the group moved to the mountain base and started to scale it, Sectonia was reminded of the ruins from before. Ruins that would prove to be an issue for some of their party due to their groundbound existence. Meanwhile Sectonia and Midna could just float above it all. And knowing this would be a challenge, Sectonia wasn't surprised as boulders, bikers, and boulder people rolled down the hill. Boulder people... at least they weren't Gordos. Still, they were barreling towards the group, so Sectonia had to do something as her other minions did what they could. An idea came to her, and with a wave of her hands, she summoned a large crystal and tilted it so that it was sitting like a ramp to give her minions below cover.

Sectonia watched as all the others did their attacks on Tora, everyone giving him some time to rest. Funny enough, out of everyone Sectonia's attacks seemed to have the most effect against Tora, being defense pierces, elemental damage, and all of that fun stuff. The rest of the trip was fairly uneventful following that whole thing.

The last stop of the train was some desert town that looked like they were ready for a party. Sectonia appreciated the vibrant colors, although she wasn't sure what to make of the residents who were all skeletons. Seeing as this was the last stop until the group started to climb the mountain, those who weren't prepared for the mountain and its harsh climate went into a nearby store to get supplies and possibly whatever else they sold. Sectonia took a courtesy glance in the store, and after finding not much to her liking, decide to wait outside for the others to finish their business, taking this time to count all of her minions.

The conductor said it best, there was a lot of them going up that mountain, some faces Sectonia hadn't even realized were there due to the large amount of minions for her to keep track of. While she did see the kid with the large shoes and the other kid with the extremely large head, she figured they were just part of the phantom thieves, but thinking back on it, no, they were new. Seeing as they were new minions, the Queen went over to the two (Sora and Raz) to make introductions. And while doing this, another person joined the group, although this one didn't peak Sectonia's interest as they just looked like one of the phantom thieves again. Although considering they were with Primrose, perhaps it would be best to greet them all the same.

As some of the group was discussing the point the conductor made about there being too many people, Sectonia spoke up. "Well, warmth will not be a problem. My fire antillions can keep those nearby warm." Really the only problem would be time, as Sectonia could carry most of the kids if need be, and Midna was also a flyer like her. And there were her gemstone platforms, if they were needed. She did remember the Scout arguing earlier about a 'platform gun' or something of that like.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news today, but I figured I'd post this in the OOC: A lot has been going on, and due to personal reasons I'll not get into, I'll be taking an indefinite leave from Guild. This last year has been incredible and a great experience and I'm thankful to have taken part, and I apologize for the potential inconvenience this could cause. But I hope that overall, you all keep trucking and find a ton of fun in the future.

@Potemking

Hope things improve. Good luck with what your doing mate.

Level 9 Blazermate - (64/90)
Carcass Isle
Words: 998

After finding and repairing the wounds on everyone, the group took stock of what they had left in this desolate, wet, ugly island. It didn't take long to figure out that this was a ship graveyard full of various other types of ships, and the soggy atmosphere wasn't agreeable to many of the others. Blazermate really wasn't affected by weather, but even she could agree it was icky feeling all things considered. It was soon apparent that the only food they had on them was Jr. stash, which was only really for the koopa kid himself. As the other lamented about this fact, Blazermate chimed in. "Well, I don't eat, so at least you don't have an extra mouth to feed." Saying that though, she did need to fix herself up after that whole maw deal, and with her world of light granted abilities back in her hands, Blazermate summoned her striker, the engineer, to fix herself up and make herself look as pristine as ever.

While the others huddled around to discuss a plan of action, Nadia and the Cadet seeming closer than anyone else, Blazermate was laying down on a smooth slab of bone as the Engineer whacked her with his wrench, metal dents audibly popping as her frame was brought back to pristine condition via her little spa day in ship purgatory. While relaxing, someone from the Maw, that wizard from before, came up to the party and asked a few questions. Seeing as the others were being amicable, Blazermate chimed in, the Engineer's wrench making clanging sounds as it hit her metal body. "Hiya, I'm Blazermate, a -mate line model, Blazer subset. I'm the team healer, and I guess mother? Or I was in the Maw!" Seeing as she was getting repaired, she looked over the item that she had gotten from crushing the lady's spirit. It was a mirror, a basic, does nothing, mirror. Hm... well it would be useful at some point maybe.

When the group felt they were ready to get going, the engineer dissipated, having repaired Blazermate and reapplying her missing paint from the Maw. The medabot, now shining had an idea as some others worried about being shipwrecked. "We still have that teleporter to Seaside town there, so we can use that to leave once the boss is done." Blazermate offered. Seeing that the group was on the move, Blazermate took her usual perch on top of Bowser, a bit apprehensive of the darkness they would see themselves enter. Thankfully the rest of the group had light sources, but still it didn't stop Blazermate from holding onto Bowser's horns and not be as casual about resting on the giant koopa as she usually was. While they walked, Sakura tried to friend heart Mirage, hitting him hard, but Blazermate had already did that in the Maw, so it just resulted in hurting Mirage. Something Blazermate healed up when Mirage had approached her, as she wasn't going to move away from the light source that was Bowser anytime soon.

==================================================

After walking for some time, they came across a more open area with... primitive fish people in large numbers and some giant shark people.. Of course things wouldn't be easy. Seeing as the primitive fish people let off a murglgl kind of sound and charged, many of the group got ready for combat. Blazermate was among them, giving those who were advancing to the front lines some overheal as she kept to dealing with the flanks so she could focus on healing like she always did. A crack appeared as they started to fight, however it was located behind the giant brutes in the mushroom field so it wasn't something Blazermate was even remotely interested in getting yet. And seeing as Dell wasn't ready to be usmmoned yet, Blazermate was fighting without much in the way of her own support. However that didn't seem to matter so much as her time in the Maw and the repairs from the engineer had made her stronger, and given her a new attachment which she could quickly swap to from her healing arm.

Now was the time to try it as one of the fish people charged her with a spear. Blocking it with her suffering shield, the tongue of the shield lashed out, breaking the shoddy spear as Blazermate shield bashed the creature, her suffering shield taking the opportunity to bite into it and hold on. Swapping to her ubersaw arm, she stopped healing Mirage for a moment to beat the everliving crap out of this fish person. It only took 3 punches to end its life with her newfound strength, its life juices being sucked out and into the large syringe that formed part of her ubersaw arm. And with it being felled, it rose again as a zombie version of itself.

When Blazermate put her healing beam on Bowser, Blazermate noticed she had gained a fair amount of ubercharge from meleeing that murloc with her ubersaw hand. "oooh..." was all she could say as she charged to the next murloc that was focused on running at Kamek, doing the same thing to this one she had done to the previous one with much more fervor and gaining a hefty amount of uber from this one as well. Having collected the life essence of a few murlocs alongside her normal healing, Blazermate said. "Ubercharge ready!" She was almost ready to deploy her projectile shield as well, but she needed to do more healing before she could do that. Mirage seemed to be in the most trouble, so she flew over to him and as one of the deizens of the mushroom field tried to grab her, ubercharged both her and Mirage, making them a metallic blue and invincible, freeing him from his grabber and causing the one that tried to attack Blazermate to recoil in pain as it bit into something that was completely unyielding. "C'mon you, don't play with the worms!" Blazermate teased.

For Blazermate

Blazermate has gained the Power: Ubersaw, which allows her to swap her healing hand out for a large needle looking bonesaw with a blade below it. She can swap between these two at will. While the ubersaw is out, she can't heal or use her Projectile shield, but melee attacking someone with it will grant her 10% ubercharge.
In addition Blazermate has gained the Strength: Increased Strength, which has greatly increased her ability to fly and her overall strength. She can now carry someone with her while she flies that is around her size and are of a moderate weight and her melee attacks do more damage/she can lift more weight. This is thanks to her constantly carrying and rescuing the others or having to fight the horrors of the Maw.
However she has gained the Weakness: Nyctophobia Blazermate is very hesitant to deal with pitch blackness due to her encounter with the Lady coming out of the darkness and almost crushing the medabot.

It was over, the Lady lay 'dead' in front of the group, and blue team had control of the maw. While she thought they might have to fight the onlookers afterwords, none of them seemed to really care the lady had died, applauding all the same. Making sure no one could become a new lady, Blazermate grabbed the spirit as the others were regaining their senses and crushed it, as if in retribution for almost getting crushed by said lady.

Following hat kid, the group made their way to the helm of the maw, which was already making its way to the location of the area boss. And while they did manage to land on that island, it wasn't the best of ways to land as a weird mage made the maw crash into a very ghastly island full of corpses and other macaab things.

Blazermate didn't land in the most dignified positions, being face first and waist deep in some muck and being there for quite some time until she was pulled out by Nadia, now fully grown. Blazermate noticed that she too had her previous enhancements since entering the maw as well, and when she looked at Geralt, he was back to normal too! Well 'normal' for abosrbing a giant spirit and being a giant himself now. Nadia, in a bit of a panic, asked Blazermate to help her search for the others, which the medabot did. Her scanners let her pick up people that were half buried like her far easier, as well as heal those who were injured either way.

Level 7 Sectonia (holding 2 level up) - (68/70)
Location: Al Mamoon
Word Count: Less than 750

Sectonia was one of the last to arrive to the Grim Rail with its giant cannon, having needed to spend some extra time with the rulers of the Al Mamoon due to being the owner of the previous rebellion 2nd in command striker (And having their leader fused into herself, but she didn't know that.) as well as wanting to talk a bit more politics. "It took longer than anticipated to talk out some terms and whatnot." Sectonia said, giving her excuse for being one of the last ones to arrive. Still, at least she made it on time although soon enough she found that there was very little spots on the train to sit, even if she had arrived earlier, making the trip not very comfortable, which was echoed by a few others as well.

Cellia being on the train didn't bother Sectonia much, with Midna already talking her down for turning on their team. Sectonia merely added. "My magic doesn't hurt allies unless I choose it to do so." Soon after however, Tora suggested that they train him on his tankability, with Poppi explaining that it wouldn't bother Tora too much as long as they gave him time to erst as he healed quickly outside of combat. "Ah. if that is what you want, I shouldn't deny it. Lets be careful however."

Being careful was for the best, as Sectonia watched as Midna put all she could into large hits. This also gave Sectonia information on how everyone who participated fought, and while Midna could deliver large hits, it seemed she needed a large amount of windup, far more than Sectonia's spells. Still, Sectonia waited until Tora invited her to begin.

When it was Sectonia's turn to 'train' on Tora, Sectonia started with a blast of her dark lightning, lightning that hit everyone, but only injured Tora. With her mask item tripling how many bolts or blasts her spells did, there was lightning going everywhere. After casting her magic on Tora, she waited for him to fully heal before trying the only other spell she wanted to try on him. Swirling a hand, she fired a Void Globule at Tora, the void energy completely bypassing most of Tora's defenses. Much like her lightning, she waited until Tora was fully healed before then summoning a ring of light around herself and bumping it into Tora before dispelling it. She waited more for Tora to heal before asking him which spell he would like her to attack him with again, if any. Or if she'd prefer others train with him.

Level 9 Blazermate - (46/90)
Level 7 Geralt - (94/70)
The Maw > Storage Room
Words: 1468 (3 XP)

Blazermate found that the storeroom was... well the proper term was industrial creepy as if she walked into an industrial warehouse at night that was not well kept. And this wasn't aided by the mimics in the corner that she had seen before. Heck, if it wasn't for the fact the dead zone got nuked, she'd say they'd have walked back into it here. Still, there were quite a few useful items here. While the Koopa troop were looking around one area and Geralt another, Blazermate looked near the crying child. There wasn’t too much Blazermate could do for him right now, as he wasn’t injured or really afflicted by anything, he just seemed to… be there. For how long Blazermate didn’t know, maybe they could grab him on the way out? The floating items near him looked unappealing, being mostly... fecal based? ...what? But nearby him on another shelf were some more interesting items, although one of them was very... questionable. But considering the questionable stuff that the others found it wasn't too surprising in the end. And unlike the other 3 items, two of them were at least food based.

For Blazermate

Mega Bean A large bean that causes a massive, earth-shattering fart when used that causes earth to fly, petrifies and poisons any nearby enemies for a short time. Recharges after 3 rooms/areas.
Red Stew A delicious looking stew made of red lentils. Has the feeling of betrayal around it. Eating the stew causes the eater to be fully healed and massively increases their damage for three minutes.
Purgatory A crack will form on the ground in the current room. Stepping on this crack will cause it to open revealing a single ghost before closing completely and reappearing somewhere else. This ghost will aggressively home in on the nearest enemy and explode. These explosions don't hurt the one that summoned the ghost.

Most of these items Blazermate couldn't use, due to her being unable to eat and two of them being food based. However these items could be helpful for the others, as they most certainly weren't cursed as they were bean based, right? After all, this was a storage closet, so food stuffs kinda made sense? And upon grabbing the third item, a cute grateful looking ghost, the pickup just disappeared as its power flowed into Blazermate. Blazermate wasn't sure what just happened, but got the idea that it was 'help from beyond' or something and should she look closely, she will have found a red crack had suddenly formed on the ground.

She didn't have that much time to look though, as the noise of everyone moving, shifting, and finding objects attracted the attention of baddies, most of which looked like they were also from the dead zone, sorta. The snake being the most troubling of them all. Blazermate, unlike the kids, was much larger then them. But unlike them, she was a full robot and they were in a storeroom with various nicknacks, some of them being mechanical in nature. So Blazermate found an empty part of a shelf to sit on, and made herself to look like a shut off mechanical doll. This wasn't too hard, since her eyes never looked like they moved, so she could keep watch on the snake while hiding in essentially plain sight.

Geralt’s own search took him along with Bowser, though not quite as close as the Koopa King was originally intending. The plan that Kamek and Bowser had was good, insofar as it allowed the group to cover more ground while not losing track of one another. Geralt’s own search, slightly separated, was...frankly, not particularly fruitful compared to the others’.

For Geralt

Pendant A pendant, which does nothing. You’ve been tricked into thinking this was important!

Freeze Spray A single-use attacking item which deals a small amount of ice damage to a single opponent

Safety Goggles A pair of goggles which protect the user from weather-related damage and powder/spore-based moves and attacks.

In one box, he’d found a pendant which reminded him, in a vague sort of way, of his missing Wolf Medallion, and he took it, immediately wearing it around his neck. He didn’t feel any different wearing it, and the pendant didn’t seem to be reacting to anything around him, so Geralt chalked it up to being one of the personal effects of one of the Guests. Given that he doubted they’d miss the thing, he shrugged and carried on, pendant still hanging from his neck.

The goggles were sat upon one of the shelves, and after testing them, Geralt found that they didn’t impact his visibility much at all, so he decided to take them along with the hopes that they’d come in handy, whether it be in the salty sea air or at some point down the line.

The can of freeze spray, being cold to the touch, gave the Witcher pause for a moment before he grabbed it and stuffed it in the pockets of his pants, figuring he’d find a use for it then.

After a bit of shuffling about and searching the shelves and boxes, Geralt found himself confronted with a strange situation: tiny pieces of paper were stuck to various objects littered about the area, and Bowser was acting with an abundance of caution around them. That behavior itself was enough to warrant suspicion, but the words on those papers gave him pause: ‘Not a mimic’ indicated that something was a mimic, and with a name like that, Geralt didn’t need to guess to figure out what they were capable of.

As Geralt was heading towards Boswer, he passed a mug with the same note on it, but this mug was a liar. A liar, and a mimic. Leaping at him, the horrific creature managed to land one of its legs on Geralt’s bent arm, before attempting to force another down his throat. Lifting his free arm, thankfully still gripping the Nail, Geralt drove it through the creature’s body, causing it to leap free of him and run off, perhaps seeking prey elsewhere. “Boss, we’d best be careful.” Geralt reported, unhelpfully. He didn’t doubt that they’d just seen what happened, but it was still good to at least assuage any fears that he’d been hurt badly. “Managed to stick it, but the damned thing ran off before I could finish the job.”

When a sudden noise spooked a group of the weird things, which now that he thought about it really resembled what the Runaway Kid had turned into, Geralt watched with amusement that turned to horror, which then turned to anger as the Resentment stepped through the door into the storage room.

As the others scrambled to hide, Geralt noticed a familiar shade of blue hiding on one of the shelves, and sneakily made his way over to her and whispered. “Hey.” Bowser’s own ruckus was likely distracting the thing, so he wasn’t overly afraid of alerting it to their position.

Blazermate, not moving, replied when she saw that it was Geralt talking to her, also keeping her volume low. ”So uh… about that plan of Jrs…. I think I got something good for it.” When the snake wasn’t looking, Blazermate put power into one of her arms to grab and remove the red stew from her backpack, handing it to Geralt. ”This might help? It looks like a bean soup. I don’t know what it does though, but maybe give it a shot?”

Geralt looked at the weird bean stew in Blazermate’s hands. Then he looked at Blazermate. Then he looked back to the stew. And back to Blazermate again. After a moment, he shrugged. “Don’t suppose it’ll hurt any.” Grabbing the spoon, Geralt shoved the stew into his mouth quickly, some dripping down his chin, but thankfully splattering on the floor and not his shirt. It was actually quite good, and that wasn’t just the hunger talking, now that he’d gotten that small meal into him earlier. How it didn’t spill in her backpack, though, he didn’t question.

”By the way, I found that near this cute ghost powerup thing I absorbed” Blazermate said, omitting this information until Geralt ate the lentil bean stew. She omitted the crap based items also nearby it entirely.

Geralt let out a sigh and turned a glare on Blazermate that would have been much more intimidating were he his usual self. “And you waited until after I ate it to tell me that. Thank you.” Shaking his head with the snark, he dropped the emptied bowl and whistled for the Nail, which flew up from where he’d left it against the shelf and into his waiting hand. “Forget it, let’s go get this done.” He stated, perhaps a bit more curt than before, moving back to the others at a quick run.

Blazermate stayed in her spot due to her size, staying motionless until the plan went into motion or things went south. If they went south quick, she’d move herself over to the others posthaste.

---

As the Resentment was struck with the doughy projectile, Geralt and the others descended upon it like ravenous beasts, though they refrained from attempting to eat the thing, despite its appearance. As much as this place drove one to hunger, it’d take a lot more to get Geralt to try and eat anything that creature had turned into. Instead, he drove his Nail into the beast-shrimp again and again, powered by fury and, unbeknownst to him, the power boost provided by the soup he’d eaten.

Among the group, they were strong, but unless this new ability of Kamek’s lasted a while (Geralt having been unconscious-or near enough-when he fused with the Spirit), they’d have a new set of problems when the thing came back.

Best to kill it now, then. Assuming such a thing were possible.

Level 9 Blazermate - (43/90)
The Maw > The Stage
Words: less than 750

Blazermate, Nadia, and Ace came in at the right time to save the day, their fellow members having issues with fighting some rice, tentacle... things... But their intervention saved the day momentarily, allowing those turned into food to turn back with the defeat of said tempura wizards. IT was then explained what this 'curse' was, apparently only meat products were cursed, which Blazermate promptly removed from her backpack, offering the non meat items to those who were hungry. Thankfully she didn't have to worry about this curse, but it defensively caused concern for everyone else here. Especially after what happened...

After a bit of healing and eating, the group moved on to their next destination, the headquarters of whoever was running this ship. Unlike the others, Blazermate didn't actually see this geisha coming in, so she didn't know this was the big bad. Although the performance she was about to see would solidify that fact soon enough.

The group found themselves in a, frankly, japanese theatre with sitting pillows and everything. Much like Sakura, Blazermate said. "Its like at home when you go to Ninja world or something." She did agree with the others pointing out the 'guests' in this area.... They really weren't healthy. Nor pretty. The one that Bowser seemed to know was the best looking of the bunch, at least he seemed to try to keep himself looking somewhat proper. Although while two of the others were really ugly, especially the slug lady, the guy with the marble women around him looked weird, but not so bad thanks to his company? Why did he have moving marble statues anyway? Well that was a thought that'd get resolved never as a kid that had guided Nadia became the 'attraction' of the show, the room going dark and a single beam of light shining down upon him as a tall kabuki woman came out from some nearby manikins of herself and did.... something... to the boy, turning him into some shriveled husk thing, much to the cheers of the fatties watching the show.

Having completed her show, she gestured in the direction of the group before moving on. "So... uh.... Guess we've gotta deal with her. Kinda a relief considering all the other stuff below if we can figure out what she does..." Blazermate said. Seeing as there were some rooms around, Blazermate suggested that they look in the one named "storeroom' to see if it had any weapons or anything. Although knowing this place, it probably was just full of corpses or something. Bowser and the troop had the same idea.
