[i]Zane flipped his cape over himself, the flames dying out as they hit. He leapt up at the wraith, drawing his buster sword and swinging upward.[/i]

-
“ITS A GUY!” Jon yelled at Zane as the warrior was about to cleave into the wraith.
-
[i]God damn it, Zane thought to himself as he flipped his buster sword. The flat of the blade collided Into the chest of the man, just enough force to knock him away.[/i]
-
The wraith spun into the stair case, igniting it into flame. It let out a guttural roar as it shot out more fireballs at Zane. Zane saw however that a dart was shot from behind him, and went straight into the fire creature. The creature seemed stunned for but a moment before the dart was burnt into ash. “Oh come on!” Baker Yelled.
-
[i]Zane flipped his cape over him again, the fireballs once again snuffing out when they made contact. He dropped down next to Jon, throwing a concussive Grenade at the burning man.[/i] "You got any ideas for downing this bastard?"
-
“Ya...ya I got an idea.” He said. He reached for the back of this hip, and drew what seemed to be some sort of mechanism. It had a grip and a sight, so it was some form of weapon. Suddenly, two parts flipped up on top of the grip and below, and Zane now saw the black as night recurve bow that formed in the man’s hand. There was no string to start with, until a blue light shined between the upper and lower limbs of the bow. Baker took aim, and an arrow made of blue light generated from his left hand and the nock of the arrow connected with the string. The tip of the arrow was ball point, Zane saw. “Alright...this should work!” Falk yelled as he began to draw. However the fire man sent out two fireballs towards them, but Baker didn’t seem like he was going to move. Zane saw the arrow fly off the string, but two fireballs were heading right towards them.
-
[i]He moved in front of Baker and blocked the magic with his armor, the heat resistant metal shimmering under the flames. He then stepped aside, giving the Merc a clear shot.[/i]
-
The arrow went sprawling towards the skull of the wraith, and with one audible [i]THUNK![/i] the fiery man fell limply to the ground with a [i]thud![/i]. The flames died out immediately which only left a weak looking man unconscious on the ground. “Alright...that’s another down.” Baker commented. “Well, this is great. Now the stairs are out.” Dani added. “Equipping rope arrows now.”
-
"Na, I'll get us up there." [i]He activated his rocket boots and began hovering above the ground. He extended his hand outward, waiting for Baker to take it.[/i]
-
“You aren’t Gunna start singing to me now are you?” Jon said jokingly as he grasped Zane’s wrist.
-
"Eh, singing ain't really my thing. I let my wife do that." [i]He boosted off the ground and flew up to the balcony, allowing baker to land on the ground.[/i]
-
Baker landed, brushing himself off. “Alright, we still got four more doors to check. All of em in the middle here.” He said. “Let’s just do one at a time now though.”
-
"Good idea, that way if you get blasted again you won't go flying back off. Why not use your AI to scan the remaining rooms?"
-

-
"I see. Tell you what, send your AI back I to my suit. Together with Alfred they might have enough power to do a full scan of the area."
-
“That’s an elementary idea.” Dani would say. “It makes no sense. It’s like you are wanting to mix flour and egg to make a steak.” “Dani! Give the guy a break! It was just an idea!” “A dumb one.” Baker raised his finger to the bridge of his nose. “Just...maybe you just scan the rooms by yourself.” He told Zane.
-
"Geez, haven't been insulted like that since a was a kid....Dani is a bit rude huh?" [i]He walked up the the nearest door, preforming another scan[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 12/31/2017 8:50:08 PM“Ya, it probably has to do with the fact that she has no legs.” Baker said, seemingly towards Dani. “Hey!” “What? You are LITERALLY perpetually salty. Like if I could harvest you I could hold a flipping monopoly in minerals.” Zane saw that the door lead into a hallway.!
-
[i]Zane chuckled as he then activated a thermal scan, seeing if there was any more cultists.[/i] "Got a hallway behind this door, I'm scanning with thermal now."
-
As he scanned, he didn’t pick up anything as far as his scan could go. The hallway seemed clear.
-
"Scan didn't show any hostiles so it's up to you. We can go ahead through this door or scan the rest first."
-
“Well it’s really up to you. Pretty sure the boss man is usually at the end of the road, but as for your sewing machine I’m not sure.”
-
"Better check the rest of these room then." [i]He went from door to door, scanning the rooms.[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 12/31/2017 9:42:45 PMThe first two he scanned picked up no motion nor heat, but what he was looking for was neither of those things. The machine was an inanimate object after all. Upon scanning the third room he picked up a heat signature, the shape of a human body, likely male.
-
"Got someone, let's try to sneak up on them. You wanna take em out or should I?"
-
“Better idea...why not just barricade the door? That way he can’t get out till we take care of “Mr.Controls em all.” Then we can come back and free him.”
