A Plan Most Sinister!

[Marky]

Sam does pass through, and eeps as the door shuts behind her! Pausing for a moment, she turns around and looks onward, before her attention turns to all of the fish that she can see in the transparent hallway. "W-wow..." She says, a bit amazed at the place, staring at the fishies swimming about.

[Feng]

"Ah Miss Fimbulvtr! I am delighted you could make it!" says Bones, grinning. "Anyways, it is as you've guessed although I've made a few adjustments since our previous luncheon. Nonetheless, I still require the services of Nifelheim in order for this plan to get going. I'll discuss further details once my other ally has arrived. In the meantime I've prepared some 'entertainment' to help pass the time"

(He motions to the big screen that depicts both Elliot and Sam)


As Sami-Chan admires the schools of fish swimming about she might notice a bunch of domes in the distance. Up ahead is the door when she is ready to proceed onward.

[Raleigh]

Indeed. Cocytus isn't a place I would recommend to most. I must admit it is rather nice and cool compared to the other circles though. Naturally I would have to be betraying something though for that to be a concern at any rate. *The spear disappears.* Not a bad touch with the data construct but you didn't give it a smell. Got any snacks while we watch?

[Blaze]

Fimulvetr watches the screen and chuckles.

"Who is this other ally then?"

[Feng]

"I've enlisted the aid of Miss Lola, as I require her knowledge of aquamarine for this plan to succeed," says Bones.

(Sips Tea)

"Anyways, it is good that you've come Mr. Cloak. My staff will have a light lunch prepared shortly. In the meantime can I offer either of you a refreshing beverage?"

[Marky]

As Sami-Chan admires the schools of fish swimming about she might notice a bunch of domes in the distance. Up ahead is the door when she is ready to proceed onward.

Sam blinks and stares at the domes in the distance, a curious look on her face. "Dith thome kind of undahwatah pwace?" She asks, to no one in particular, as she slowly heads on over to the door.

[Blaze]

"Lola... that demon Green avatar yes?"

Fimbulvetr chuckles.

"Interesting. And I could go for some lemonade. Ice cold."

[Harri-chan]

Elliot continued along, hurrying his pace a little after spying the drones in another dome. Soon he's reached the next door, and raced right through it, his gaze darting from side to side, "Is anyone here?".

[Raleigh]

I'll take that earlier mentioned tea I believe. Ah, I was thinking this particular scheme didn't really need me but I decided to drop in anyway to see if there was any way I could help. I noticed you also said you were running low on test subjects. Shall I fetch more? I know a good slave market that is in need of a raiding at the moment where I could get quite a few.

[Feng]

"Hmmm... I think I should attract enough test subject for today's purposes, Mr. Cloak. However, I will require human components in the nearby future. Preferably I need those lacking supernatural abilities or skills. The device I've designed was quite difficult to calibrate. Adjusting my delicate mathematical formulas in order to factor in factors like ESP would just cause unnecessary delays."

Whoosh!

A maid comes in pushing a tea trolley. She hands Fimbulvetr a glass of lemonade and Raleigh a cup of green tea.

"Enjoy~!" she says.

"Anyways, I just need plain vanilla flavored humans. No sprinkles. No chocolate sauce."

(Sips Tea)

"That is correct, Miss Fimbulvetr" says Bones. "I've recruited different individuals based on their knowledge and resources. In your case, I require both the aid of your gynoids and your knowledge of artificial brains."


No response.

However, Elliot is not alone. The young boy finds himself a dark room, the only light coming from large cylinders full of blue goo. Inside these glass containers numerous 'creatures' swim about, glaring at Elliot with their large lidless eyes! Is this an aquarium or did Elliot somehow wander into the freak show tent by mistake?


As Sami-Chan climbs upward, a school of hammerheads pass by. Like the sharks from earlier, these too also possess lasers!

The door at the end automatically opens for Sam when she reaches the top. A dimly lit room beckons the adorable cat girl to enter!

[Harri-chan]

"What the... ", murmured Elliot, his nose wrinkling as he walked up to one of the blue-filled cylinders and stared at the things inside. A shiver ran down his spine as they glared back, and he shook himself to try and shake the feeling of unease. Lifting a hand, he cautiously pushes it forward, spreading his palm against the front of the glass, and the gently patted it...

[Raleigh]

You'd be amazed at how rare it is to find someone truly incapable of anything supernatural but I can accommodate. So many of the 'muggles'', I believe I've heard them called, are more a part of the the masque than they themselves realize and all it takes is a good grimoire to awaken magic amongst the unwashed masses at times. About how many will you be needing?

[Feng]

The creature inside the tank, some strange amphibious monstrosity hailing from the deepest trenches of the abyss, glares at Elliot as he touches the tank.

RAAAWR~! :3

It bares its pale yellow teeth while thrashing about, trying to escape. Fortunately for the foolish boy, the container is strong enough to contain the entity.


"As long as they don't possess any active supernatural powers then they will be sufficient enough," says Bones.

(Sips Tea)

"Anyways, in a perfect world I would need at least four humans. However, given the way mad science works, I'm sure I'll need a good supply of test subjects on standby in the event of an emergency."

[Harri-chan]

Quickly pulling his hand back, Elliot lingered, staring at the show of aggression from the creature for a moment or two longer before stepping back. He wore a concerned expression as he moved to another of the cylindrical tanks, checking to see if the other creatures reacted the same.

[Marky]

As Sami-Chan climbs upward, a school of hammerheads pass by. Like the sharks from earlier, these too also possess lasers!

The door at the end automatically opens for Sam when she reaches the top. A dimly lit room beckons the adorable cat girl to enter!

Sam blinkblinks as she watches the school of hammerheads pass by, staring at all of the lasers. "Wow..." She says, although she starts to get at least a little more worried, noticing the lasers on all of their heads. Looking through the doorway, Sam, very slowly, goes on into the dimly, glancing around. "H-hewwo?"
