Fandom Millennium City: Stimulant - Quest: What Lies Below

[ButtDanceClaudette]

A few hours later...

You remember traveling to the mission site—either by car or hell, maybe by foot—but that didn't matter. You stood up and found yourself standing in the middle of a horribly familiar fog-covered road. It was cracked, withering with disuse and decay, little brown weeds gnawing at what remained. You felt... strange. Before you stood a massive facility: At the entrance, there were two large guard-towers standing upright, vines covered it's surface as one threatened to tumble over after years of abandonment. A set of stairs leading up to a cat-walk could be seen. It seemed to lead toward an elevator door that was cracked open, riddled with bullet holes, monstrous claw marks, and a few skeletons that littered the landscape.

You looked forward, body shivering from the cold damp fog. It was unwelcoming. You crossed your arms over your chest squinting deep into the gray abyss:

You realized you had a few options to enter the facility:

a.) Enter via [Elevator 1a]: It was a pair of elevator doors that seemed to lead down into the main facility below. It's caked with rust, but looks relatively unscathed.

b.) Enter via [Elevator 1b]: It's mangled to all hell. Bullet holes, and... something tried clawing it's way into the elevator door. It's slightly ajar, but still accessible.

c.) Explore the [guard towers]: The left guard tower looked rickety, tilting over ever so slightly. You could see a skeleton sporting a black-over-white military uniform. An old MP5 submachine clutched between it's fingers. The right tower fared better, it wasn't tilting over, but vines engulfed it's frame. Possibly safer?

[DapperDogman]

Hands on his hips, Shaxx drank in the scene before him, then, like a Titan is prone to do, he charged forward, ramming his shoulder into the tower, aiming to knock it down and retrieve the weapon, if it were even in working condition and had ammo, if not, it was possible there was a knife or other close-ranged weaponry still up there. If it didn't budge after his first impact, he take a step back, and repeat the process, slamming his huge frame against the rickety tower until he could knock it down and safely retrieve the spoils it held

hunter eyed the tower and the gun. Her fingers clenching an unclenching in habit. She knew it wasn't fair but she would feel marginally better with something in her hands, preferably something lethal that can be used. She walked toward the guard's tower - the rigidity one - and was about to climb the damn thing when one of her allies decided to ram the tower with his shoulder.

"well glad I didn't climb the thing...."

she didn't like the fact that she had competion for this damned gun and she wasn't going to lose her life over it.

Alexandria
​

Alexandria quailed under the sight of the destroyed and damaged elevators, and the tower that now seemed to have a titan ramming into the bottom of it. As a precaution, Alexandria moved out of the way, and waited for the rest of the group. She was far from the biggest and meanest, and figured she wasn't even the smartest of the bunch either. Survival came first and foremost to mind, and she faintly remembered before becoming a pokemon, she played video games, horror games, with starts just like this.

"Nobody else wonders why this place is abandoned? I don't wanna die to zombies..."

The tower budged slightly, nudging the skeleton toward the ledge. As Shaxx slammed his shoulder into the tower, the skeleton's hand sporting the MP5 submachine gun slung over the ledge, it's finger pressed over the trigger. Do you want to charge one last time?

"Brute"

Tanya briefly surveyed the area and decided that she would try and climb the tower. However that would be hard to accomplish with a braindead brute pummeling the tower like a four year old child hitting a pinata. Who was the real child here? Tanya did not know. The tower was definitely a no go area now due to the brute's actions and that left Tanya with two other options. The elevator or the banged up door.

The banged up door was Tanya's choice and she went over to it and examined it.

"Shit...Power must be out. We better go through the other doors"

[DapperDogman]

Looking up at the tower as it refused to move, Shaxx rests his hands on his hips once more "Sturdier than I thought" he mutters as he looks around for a moment, sighing as he moves around the tower, planting his feet into the ground as he charges into it once more, from the other side this time. No matter how much it resisted his efforts to make it fall, he didn't trust it's structural integrity one bit. And if the group was to have any hope of obtaining the spoils atop the tower, he knew that bringing it down was his only option.

[Nightwisher]

Vincent looked over the scene, hazel eyes assessing it to the best of his ability. He watched as Shaxx start to try and knock the unstable guard tower down. "Alright, y'all work on that. I'm going to go check the other," he informed the group, on the off chance things went to Hell, he'd prefer they know where he was in case back up was needed. And so, with that, the veteran headed toward the second tower.

He gauged for a short moment before grabbing hold of the vines and pulling, testing if they'll hold his weight.

The elevator door was active, you could see a dim light flashing within the interior of the elevator. You could possibly pry open the doors with enough strength. However, a logo was vaguely visible on the door itself. If you wanted, you could dust it off -- try and see what this facility once was.

"I don't trust elevators, too confined and not enough escape routes."

She said to no one in particular as she joined Vincent.

"Mind if I join you?"

She too tested the vines.

Tanya decided to dust off the logo a little.

"Might as well have some sort of idea what the hell that daft lady has dragged us into"

"I'm just going to ask for more money if there really IS something here... and if I survive." Reimu said, staring at the damage the second elevator took. She steps into the rusty elevator [1a]. On all other occasions, she would choose the other, but without proper extermination gear, that entrance would be suicide.

Colonel Radec

The Helghast looked over at the guard towers, they reminded him of Helghan, and it's gassy surface area. However, considering the fact the only weapon in the area was being slammed down and a few others were already there and they would all fight to get the spoils. The only other options was going toward the two elevators.

One elevator was already being checked by the green shirted woman. Either he could follow the younger woman or go with Vincent to check the second tower.

He decided to go to the second tower with Vincent and Hunter.

Kiseki Naoru

"I'd love to be friends with you!”

“Maybe we shouldn’t try to break anything just yet,”Kiseki spoke quietly, not really comfortable with causing damage to someone else's property, even if everything here looked incredibly worn down. Her eyes lit up at Tanya’s suggestion, “Yeah lets try the other.. doors,”she trailed off when the other rammed into the tower again. Instead of standing idly the girl began to examine the rickety elevators, mainly the one that looked banged up. If whatever tried to claw into it was still around the female had a feeling their group wouldn’t have a fun time. The thought of that gave her chills.

Boom!

Shaxx collided a final time into the tower walls, a loud 'creeeeek!' sound erupted from it's frame, as it began tumbling over to the right... toward the road below. The skeleton slipped from the guard tower, it's thin frame rocketing toward the Earth below. Just as - 'Pop!' the sheer force of it plummeting into the ground caused it's finger to press into the MP5 machine gun trigger, discharging a bullet from it's barrel. The air whirred around you as the bullet ricocheted from Elevator 1b, a loud 'cling!' rings in Kiseki's ears, before riiiiip Alexandria felt a sharp pain radiate from her left shoulder blade. Blood freely seeped down the wound...

  Steve wasn't very familiar with really anyone in the group so far, but he still felt responsible for their well-being and safety.
  "Is there any stairs...?" He mutters to himself, walking over to the two elevators and examining them.
  As far as he was concerned so far, nobody was going to use those elevators, they were heavily damaged and looked dysfunctional.
  He could probably be persuaded by the rest of them if everyone was okay with it, but they were all going to get in one elevator, nobody was splitting up.
  "Alright guys! So far, nobody is using those elevators! Total fire-hazard, use that and you get yourself kil-" Steve turns around mid-sentence to see Shaxx trying to shoulder charge the tower and was lost for words.
  "What the..." The tower topples and a gun goes off.
  "Oh shit! Ah!" He dives to the floor, burying his head in the dirt.
  He waits before raising his head, looks like this was going to be way harder than he expected.

Alexandria
​

Alexandria didn't know what just happened. The Braixen didn't know what happened, until she looked to her left, and saw the hole. She didn't see anything until she saw the yellow fur turn scarlet, and she knew she'd been hit. Funnily enough...it didn't really hurt. Though, she figured that was adrenaline.

"Oh god. Oh godohgodohgodohgod!"

She started to freak out. Not like this! Over an accident?!? Out of all the cosmic dice that could have been rolled, Alexandria felt that hers had been rigged from the start. She fell to her knees, panting wildly as she panicked.

Vincent and Hunter tugged at the vines. It seemed sturdy enough. Much stronger than the other guard tower. If you decided to climb up the ladder leading up, it'd be able to fully support both individuals simultaneously. You could hear the buzz of a radio on top of the tower. Feint voices can be audibly heard, "bzzt... evac.... breach..." Interesting. Do you still venture up the tower. Who knows what you might find.

Tanya decided to dust off the logo a little.

"Might as well have some sort of idea what the hell that daft lady has dragged us into"

Tanya dusted off the logo and discovered:

The logo was worn out, but a clear three-arrow insignia could be made out.

What happened down here anyway?

[Nightwisher]

Vince turned away from the tower when he heard the gun go off, looking around to see if anyone had been hit. Looks like the loot fox like creature had gotten hit in the shoulder. He hesitated for a moment, deciding whether or not to head over and check on her, try to calm her down, but his attention was pulled away by the sound of voices over a radio. "Grab the radio, see what they're saying. I'm going to go check on her," with that, the man hurried over to Alexandria, getting down on his knees so he was more her height.

"Hey, hey, let me check it out," he said, lifting his hands gingerly to see where the bullet had hit, if there was an exit wound, and check any damage that had been caused. If it was just a shoulder wound, it shouldn't have been too bad. Maybe it would hurt like Hell once the adrenaline wore off, but really it should be nothing.

Hunter froze, fingering the only weapon she had, breach? That didn't sound good! Did Pallet send them to their deaths? Something about this place seemed ..... dangerous....

"Get the feeling we shouldn't be here?"

[DapperDogman]

Watching as the tower began to fall, Shaxx dusts off his hands, smiling to himself as it crashes to the ground, though the smile vanished as he heard the telltale crack of gunfire. How had the gun discharged so easily?! Did the idiot who was holding it not know how to put the safety on?! Leaving the toward behind, Shaxx looks in the direction that the bullet had flown, seeing that it had impacted an elevator door, he lets out a small sigh, not yet realizing that the small fox creature had been hit.

It was when she began to freak out that he realized exactly what had happened, and he gritted his teeth slightly. "Dammit" he makes his way over, unsure exactly what to say, or what to do to help out with the bullet wound. He had no formal medical training, and even during the times he'd lost his light, he hadn't been injured to the point where he'd need to know how to remove a bullet and patch the wound. "I'm sorry, can anyone help the small one?" he was beating himself up mentally, though it wasn't proving helpful to the situation.

[L3n]

It seemed like ever since she woke up on that truck her head had taken a liking to ringing. Her blood ran cold as the shot went past her and into someone else. She felt a mix of relief and sorrow at someone else getting hit instead of her. Was she a terrible person for being happy she wasn’t shot? After a split second she ran over to Alexandria, dropping to her knees with the girl. Seeing other people around the injured she didn’t say anything at first as she silently examined the situation. She ripped off a piece of her own sleeve to tie around the wound after seeing her condition. “You aren't going to die here, you’re going to be okay,”she placed a feather light hand to her back.

"I'm just going to ask for more money if there really IS something here... and if I survive." Reimu said, staring at the damage the second elevator took. She steps into the rusty elevator [1a]. On all other occasions, she would choose the other, but without proper extermination gear, that entrance would be suicide.

Reimu decided to step into Elevator 1a by herself. Immediately, you could hear and feel the elevator shift violently due to the added weight imposed upon it. SKREEE!! You felt a rush of air burst in-front of you as the shaft screamed loudly, sparks flying as the elevator charged at breakneck speeds toward the facility below. You could smell the horrible scent of rust fill your nostrils as you looked up at a few television screens connected to the elevator itself. It flipped on suddenly, static filling the rapidly descending elevator, it flickered on and off, reading:

"Ẇ̸̗̗͖͔͕͔̏͌̀̏̃͞e̶̡̲̲̹̖̼̗̩̪͌̑̉̆͒̐͠͠ḽ̖͎̼̐͂̽̈̄̎̉͟͢͞ć̢̧̢̛̘͍̞͇̠̼̗̇̈́̄̎͞o̶̧̭̰̺̜͎͉̲̒̉̋͌̚ḿ̴̝̹̫͖̬̊̍̈͘͘͢͠ͅȩ̸̼̭̪̣̟̥̹̠̎̓̏̀̌͐̃͝ t̵̛̬̙̟̝̏̀͊̾̾͆͐͟͡o̶̢͚̗̦̮̣̪̓͗̓̍̉͞ S̶̫̗̞̬̰͊̄̈́̏̚̚i̵͇͉̠̼͈̜͉͂̅̏͐̿̔͌͝t̫̞̜͍̮͖̟̗̑̂̑͗̆̔͟͡e̘͉͇͚̝̒̑͒͗͞ 1͓͖̗̤̩͓̉͊̓͛͐̒͋͢͟9̸͎̙̯̗̰̻͆̿͗̋̍͠͠ͅ"

Hunter realized too late that everyone had left to help the downed pokemon; she ticked her mouth and started to walk up the ladder to the tower, trying to find out if anything was at the top.
