The Midnight Train to Nowhere

The battle ended with a Harper and Inadi shoot out and despite having only 30%, she was one of the last players standing. Lesley had managed to barrage her with bullets and finished her off, but Inadi, rather inflamed with rage, shot him down right after. In the end, she was unsure of who took victory, but the match was indeed a wonderful experience... for everyone besides Jasper. Upon removal of their armor, she was delighted to find that some paintballs were shot from a range close enough to impact hard enough to leave little circular bruises all over her arms, back, and legs. Cringing slightly, she imagined that it could have been a whole lot worse. saying their goodbyes to the opposing teams, especially to Aiden and Lizbeth, the made their way back to the museum. 'I wonder how the other group is doing?'

They met up quickly and the first group looked at much higher spirits then they did. Riley, Toby, and Ace were gushing with excitement, but then again, she guessed it was just part of their personalities.Eyeing Riley's bandaged hand with worry, she was wishing that she still had healing powers so she could fix it right up.
Near the building entrance, yelps and apologies could be heard entwined with angry shouts which were seeping through the spaces in the doorway. Some soldiers guarding the door looked quite worried and were whispering about the USB. Soon enough, the museum doors flung open as Lt. Falkner stomped out with a poor soldier getting yanked along after her.

"The USB has been stolen"

Japhet was handed a scrunched scrap of paper following the shocking announcement and Jasper's stomach began to do flip-flops. Scanning the letter from over Japhet's shoulder, the turned away holding her stomach. "Who are they? And why are they doing this to us?" She questioned through gritted teeth before breathing in a sharp intake of air. Ace on the other hand was already asking the soldiers to lead the way and she nodded uneasily in agreement. The faster they get the tea party over with, the quicker they could get back to the Queen and cross off another item on the list. Although at the mention of "the dark side" she was really not up to the task, her sweltering longing to return home forced her to kneel down and go along with things. Bad memories clouded that particular place and being reminded of them would take a toll on their emotions.

"I have a terrible feeling about this. I bet the tea party is code phrase for bloodbath.." She mumbled towards Leila who looked distant as usual.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

After clearing her helmet from the paint splatter that was obstructing her vision, she felt a low rumble begin to vibrate the earth below her. Looking at Inadi with alarm eminent in her gaze. Attention flicking towards a curtain of parting trees, a tall robot more dangerous looking the the ones they had encountered earlier stepped into view. Hand latching onto Inadi's, she struggled to her feet quickly before breaking into a sprint right behind Lesley, Leila, and Harper. Grabbing for her pistol since she had accidentally put down her larger one and mistakenly left it behind the log, she fired some blind shots at the robot as she sped up, feeling it's heavy clodding steps stomping close behind.

Catching up to the others she was a bit out of breath, but was glad that the monstrous bot had turned its wrath towards Aiden. "Let's call it truce for now ok? We can shoot each other after we take down that thing and the other teams." Jasper held out her pinky towards Harper with an earnest smile. Once he took it in acceptance, they turned towards the robot and shot simultaneously, their bullets decreasing its health bar rapidly although it was able to land a couple of shots on her and a few of the others. By the end of the paintball war, she was down to a mere 50% health.

Aiden was luckier with 70% still clinking on his screen. He had taken a few hits, but was fine for the most part. Joining up with his team, he was ready to turn on Inadi and Jasper, but he was quickly informed of the temporary truce. "Aw man. I really wanted to eliminate them! Well I guess obliterating Est will have to wait," He murmured with a childish pout as he crossed his arms.

Lizbeth, Est, and Breeze had joined in at some point in the battle to take on the giant droid as well. Lizbeth still only had 5% docked from her health leaving her with 80%. Pulling her cartidge container back, she popped in a couple more bullets and jammed the holder back into place. "Phew, that was a close one."

"Well looky here. The other teams must've heard the commotion!" Aiden cheered as he eyed some coordinate points coming their way. Motioning for them to hide among the trees, they awaited for the opposing teams to appear. At the first sign of pink, Aiden fired mutiple bullets at a pink member with a gleeful chuckle,. "Aha! Gotcha!"

The pink victim turned swiftly and climbed up a tree, spotting him.

Aiden snorted. "You can't hide from me silly." Positioning himself beneath the tree, he aimed his scope and landed the crosshairs on the opponents helmet. With a few fatal shots he was able to eliminate one of the team members and Lizbeth was able to do the same.

Jasper had her own pistol out and helping out with another pink member. The soldier was a rookie as well and had just as lousy a shot as Jasper's. By the time she was able to finally get the hang of shooting the paint ball pistol, she was down to a mere 30%, but was able to take out another pink member only leaving one of the pink guys behind. She hoped Inadi could take him.

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Shoot everything that moves? That was their game plan? Jasper guessed that Est was more of an offensive player than anything else. That personality trait definitely marked them opposites. If the leading was up to her, she'd get to higher ground and await for passersbys instead of hunting them down, but she guessed that's not how the game went here. Despite her preference to hide and wait instead of tracking down the others, Breeze and Est continued towards the commotion and gun fire not too far from where they were venturing and soon enough, they met with a couple of bots. Her heart almost leaped out from her chest as she pointed her gun, but then blanked out and ducked behind a tree trunk instead. Luckily, she had soldiers and Inadi on her her side for they finished the mechanical enemies without needing her help.

Peeking out from her concealed hiding spot, she emerged from the foliage and joined her group as they reloaded their guns, inspecting the healthless droids laying on the ground with broken head domes. Tightening her grip on the gun, Est announced that the Orange Team was nearby and they were to go towards the swamp in order to cross paths. Strangely enough, the swamp did look real, a scene one would find out in actual nature; outside, not inside an arena. She was surprised at the detail they put in. Unfortunately, the smell of a murky swamp was there hovering over the area too. Inadi didn't appear to be taking the aroma too well either, using his shirt in a poor attempt at blocking off the wretched stench. More than once, she almost ended up slipping on a moist stepping stone or a marshy patch and the haunting quiet, apart from the nature noises, was drifting more towards a dangerous kind of quiet.

Inadi joked about being reminded of the smell of dead corpses and she wrinkled her nose with a grin and a nod. Eventually, a strong sense of vulnerability began to eat away at her confidence and before she could nudge Inadi to tell him about how she was feeling, a shot was fired from who knows where. A sharp sting on the chest alerted Jasper that she had just taken a hit and a pretty harmful one at that, bringing her health bar down to 90%. Inadi went frantic and fired towards the direction of the paintball while Est and Breeze took a stance that looked ready for anyone that was out there. They were at a disadvantage she knew that and the fact was making her want to surrender. Feeling a hand wrap around her own, she was then pulled along with Inadi towards a log that would provide for much safer cover and they called Est and Breeze to duck somewhere protected as well.

Scanning the radar displayed on the lower left side of her view, she saw a single red coordinate blinking close to them. Whoever that was must've shot them. Inadi's coordinate was blinking too and she grinded her teeth as she willed it to fade away. It was giving away their current position, but at least they knew that the enemy was in close proximity. Peeping from behind the log, she eyed Est and Breeze for some sort of signal on what to do next. Suddenly, a fire was shot at her peeking head — landing headshot. That was one of the most fatal targets and her health further decreased down to a 75%. She crouched back down and wiped some paint from her helmet that was obscuring her vision. Jasper's brain had been shaken a little by the impact of the shot, but over all she was alright.

The paintball had come from Aiden who was snickering gleefully at his deadly precision. "Headshot!" he whispered in a sing songish tune whilst he jeered with light punches to no one in particular.

Lizbeth rolled her eyes at the soldier and couldn't believe how brutally he had shot the poor human. "Take it easy. You probably gave her a second heart attack apart from Lesley's." Turning to Lesley and Leila, she beckoned for the four of them to huddle up. "Alright, here's the game plan. Aiden and I will take on Est and Breeze while you two do what you can to take out the couple." Lizbeth made eye contact with the two off them, seeking out any confusion in their expressions, but the two seemed to understand. "Ok, you know what to do," She made a gesture at Aiden and the pair creeped to a different section.

Aiden had a playful smile on as he spotted Breeze. "Aye Lizzie, you deal with the girl. It'd be unfair for her- OI!" He wasn't able to finish his sentence since Lizbeth had reached over and knocked him on the helmet.

"Whatever you say 'captain' but don't bring gender into your reasoning. You know very well I can beat you in a one on one," She challenged him.

The male soldier stuck his tongue out at her as he departed in search of Est.

Meanwhile, Lizbeth had propped up her gun and peeking into the scope. Breathing in lightly, she exhaled with a sigh and fired at Breeze's leg, a splatter of red washing over the Nobody's boot. Lizbeth tensed up and fired two more for good measure before sprinting for a different location.
