"I'm fine. I guess still a little spooked from all that." Mocha answered a bit quietly, referring back to what she had assumed was the start of the game. Was that a real gun that was fired? And what exactly was the rest of it with the odd scents? Perhaps a few of those things were meant to keep the. Guessing as to what really happened? "I wonder if the lights will turn on soon. They've been out for a while, haven't they? Or maybe we're supposed to turn them on again? Perhaps we should check the switches on our way."

> I doubt that. Maybe its me Hmm...I can't really see that making sense either. Perhaps I should ask Sensei how it deals with these kinds of things.

...whoops. I'll cut and save my post for now. EDIT: Um...well...should I still cut it for now? And is the post even okay?

Looking back at the situation on the other side of the room, Runo continued to feel more panicked as things escalated. It seemed like there were just too many to get away from unscathed at this point, and if the others were all killed by these metallic beasts, then what? Being alone was a pretty big no in his book, especially in such a terrifying and dry place with such vicious things everywhere. *What should I do? What would I do if this was my pod?* ...perhaps he could still do *that*? It wouldn't be fun, but it was the last option he could think of. This was an emergency! "Cover your ears and duck!" The merman shouted out in the hopes that he could still be heard over the chaos. If this worked, it might not have very good effects on unprotected ears. Wincing at the thought of the incoming pain, he took a deep gulp of air before releasing it in a screech powerful enough to be felt. A lot. He still didn't fully understand the solid creatures that kept shooting at them, but he had seen other Merfolk take down pretty large and scary attackers with it. It was always horrible to watch, though; there were some pretty good reasons why their 'siren screeches' were never used often. After almost a minute of forcing out the large sound, Runo started choking and dropped to his knees, clutching at his throat. If there way to describe the feeling left behind, he'd have to say that it was akin to having one's throat practically ripped open with hot knives. He couldn't even think past the pain at the moment to swear on how he was never going to use it ever again. Assuming that there would be an 'again', of course.

Okay.

Okay, so any beauties at the table are free to post. The beasts who are at the table could probably answer the question as well, but if anyone is having trouble deciding what to post, I can come up with something to get things moving.

-shrugs-

Understood, but that still doesn't solve the problem with them suddenly turning on their authority figure without any real explanation, and I still feel like this might be a bit much. Is the pyramid really that hell-bent on either keeping them all or killing them all? Did we even ask? -------------- EDIT: Ninja'd. All right, then. Do I have permission to use a one-time quick shut-down solution?

No worries. I'll see if I can do something.

> Runo is on the other side of the room in the hallway they were trying to get to. Unless something has changed for no reason what so even more drones should be incoming from the hall they just left. And Akila is stupid. Um...this doesn't sound good... I'm really tired of the constant discontinuous robot attacks as well, though. I was hoping that we'd get to investigate more about what this place was meant for, but everyone gets stopped at every turn and there's nothing for some of us to really do but cower as we wait for the robots to just kill off all the characters. May I try a one-time idea to stop the robots for now?
