Ridge: *Protects myself and Martyn with a small dome barrier of energy*
Let's end this, guys. Now.
Martyn: But we need to wait for the others to get out.
-*Draws a little water out of a container on my waist and holds a water sphere in my palm an blocks your punch with that hand, and when you make contact it envelopes your arm and freezes on contact, locking that limb up*

*Uses the moment of distraction to punch you in the stomach with the green energy coating my fists*

@Techspert

Ridge: *Stops it with a small panel of white energy*
Don't touch my bro, bro.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*A dark green field starts to cause yours to deteriorate*

@Techspert

Ridge: *Sees Rythian struggling*
Oh, no you don't.
*Throws javelins at very precise points on your clothing, and they carrying you through the air and pin you to a wall*
-Don't touch him or let him touch you.
Ridge: Yeah, I learned the hard way.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Oh, I heard that one. Not going to happen.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Generates the other side of the portal in front of you with a sticks that spell out "go in" positioned on the ground with an arrow pointing toward the portal*

*One forms below Martyn in the black room*

@Extra
*The other end of the portal appears below you, causing you to fall in*

@Nimda

Martyn: *Goes through*
Ridge: ... Not like it could hurt... Well, it could, but who cares about that.
*Flies into the portal*
-*A look of relief appears on my face as people start coming out*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Either they come out, or we go in and risk getting eaten.

@Etcetera

... Come on, guys.

Myriad Reality

An access point opened.
*A blue glyph glows and opens a swirling black and purple portal, with light blue sparks on the edges*

@Etcetera

Can they come to us or do we need to go to them?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Be consumed by the Nightmare.
*A combination purple aura begins to fill the room*

@Techspert

*A red energy overlaps the black, stopping that force*
No.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Everything is a trick, my friend.
*The parrot spontaneously combusts, setting the forest trees on fire*

@Nimda

Ridge: *Looks up when I hear the crackling sound, then sighs before floating into the air, still sitting down*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Yeah, yeah. I'll bust you all out in a second.

@Nimda

Ridge: Sweet.
*Closes my eyes again*
If you're not actually a trick, then I'm looking forward to it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*I extend my hand, which begins to drain your life force, and a pale blue energy that surrounds it extends it to everyone in the room*

@Techspert

*Looks determined*
Martyn...
*A black energy barrier surrounds me an the others, breaking the link that is allowing you to drain our energy*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

It's as fake as you make it out to be. But that can be talked about later; we're trying to break you all out.

@Nimda

Ridge: Ah. Any progress?
