Terror from the Stars

Chapter I
Dark Horizons

It has been only been a few days since Magos Hermitius recruited you for a purpose still relatively unknown. Though renown for his more "human" mannerism, the man was still a prominent tech-priest, and social interactions were not his specialty: when he requested that several acolytes be sent to him for a special investigation, the Inquisition quickly complied and you were selected.

Soon, you found yourself in standing in his office. After several minutes of awkward silence, the magos finally spoke up. It was a quick interview and it seemed you passed his expectations- as though dozens of people lined up behind his office door, half a dozen were selected.

The mission, he said, would be exploratory in nature: he required strong, able bodied individuals to brave the dangerous marshes of Dusk. The name of the ominous planet, synonymous with death, did not seem to phase him. He carried on, insisting on the importance of brains as much as brawn in the endeavor to come: the previous expedition had simply vanished without leaving a trace behind.

Before you can get anymore information out of the magus, he throws you out of the office and lets in the next applicant.

Now, you find yourself on a Cargo-freighter, awaiting further instructions, along with four other acolytes. Whether from the tightly-packed space, the badly filtered air or the anticipation of a certain demise, you are left feeling considerably uneasy.

On the bright side, its your chance to introduce yourself to your colleagues before you land.

[OOC] Hey! So welcome aboard- were starting out slow, Introduce yourselves if choose to do so, and we'll move on with the landing!

[Hemnon]

''Viper''

the uneasy feeling!(for everybody)
you all have this soul stinging feeling, witch makes you uneasy and a bit uncomfortable

see if you can find her...(for everybody)
you will not be able to see her unless you succeed on an awereness test


only for those who succeed
she sits on a 2 meter high pile of boxes

[wadams5]

“I say! Does anyone else feel that?” Quint looks around the cramped cabin in wide-eyed excitement, speaking in the manic chirps of an intrigued scholar.

“Prickely… Ooh, now I have goose bumps… Smell that? The faint scent of Ozone, with a hint of lavender… My nose seems to be a bit confused.” He sniffs the air sharply.“ Fascinating. Simply fascinating!"

"I dare say there’s something un-natural afoot right here in this cabin. We may have a heretic in our midst. Isn’t that exciting?"

"Might I inquire, are any of you a sanctioned psyker? Oh, How rude of me. I haven’t introduced myself. Quint Novis, at your service. Now, Lets see if we can’t find out who, or what, is doing that. Shall we?”

A tall figure, blatently a techpriest from the mechandrites, robes and mechanicus charm, steps forwards, gesturing towards Viper

Maybe our friend here can explain to us?

[Hemnon]

''viper''


as the tech-priest points at her she deactivates her cameo-coating. she jumps down from the boxes and lands the ninja way.

(she pulls her mask of and this is how she looks like)

[wadams5]

“Oh? Hello! An untouchable is it? That’s not much of a heretic. Not much of a heretic at all. Almost a sort of anti-heretic isn’t it. Oh that’s good. That’s quite good. Yes.” Quint chuckles to himself, overjoyed as he hefts his pack onto his lap and rummages around inside it for a moment, withdrawing his auto-quill, with witch he starts taking furious notes in a strange indecipherable short-hand script. “I’d buckle up though my dear. If my calculations are right, we may be headed into a bit of warp turbulence in the near future. It’s probably nothing, but we wouldn’t want to see that pretty little dome of yours cracked open on the ceiling, now would we. Then we’d have one dead anti-heretic on our hands, wouldn’t we. Fortunately, I don’t believe that equates to a live heretic, though, strangely enough, the idea is mathematically sound. Get it? A dead anti-heretic equals a live heretic?” Quint chuckles nervously at his own joke for a moment before he realizes that he’s the only one laughing.

Quint clears his throat and continues in a more dignified meter “Well I suppose that’s enough nonsense out of me. Right then, come along dear. You too, sir. Better safe then sorry and all that. There we are.”

[Hemnon]

''viper''

a smile treaten to show on her face as the adept tells the joke.... for some reason she finds it quite funny.

''you guys can call me viper...and do NOT ask for my real name, unless you don't like to be alive that is''
she says, her voice sounds a little like a princess's voice from a fairy-tale.

''explain what?'' she then asks the tech-priest, looking a bit confused.


her apperence
she looks JUST like the picture i posted earlier BUT she has crimson red eyes. her suit looks like that now, but before she jumped down from the boxes it was cameo coloured, it changes colour with the surroundings. like the Predator from: predator, predator 2, aliens vs. predator and aliens vs. predator 2. but right now its red and white coloured, as on the picture.

[wadams5]

"So very pleased to meet you Miss Viper." Quint reaches his hand out across the small cabin to take her hand, and gives her as much of a charming bow as he can muster while strapped into his seat and wearing all but the headgear of his shiny new storm trooper carapace.

[Hemnon]

''viper''

she leans a little backwards as he raises his hand, and she doesn't shake it.
''uh, its just viper...''
feeling a bit awkward, her voice shakes a bit, not being used to people willingly getting THAT close to her.

[Mekboy]

Nihilius Vekt, of Forgeworld Akathia, at your service, says the techpriest, with a slight nod.

[wadams5]

Quint converts the gesture into a wave, and carries on without missing a beat. "Pleased to meet you Mr. Vekt." Quint extends him a hand shake, and turns his attentions back to Viper.

"So, Viper then, is it? I don't suppose that you could dial down the prickly business a tick? It’s getting to be just a bit much, don’t you think? That’s a good girl.”

[Hemnon]

without answering quint she turns her back to him and walks 4 meters away from him, and with a sudden stop she spins around, with crossed arms over her chest, and looks at him, with a tint of hurt feelings in her eyes.


Quint(and anybody else who now isnt within 4 meters of her) only
as she reaches the 4 meter distance the soul stinging feeling stops intirely..leaving not trace of it. it just disappeared

[wadams5]

"Come now, that won't do. Have a sit and strap in. I think i can speak for all of us when I say if keeping you safe means we have to deal with a little uneasiness, then we will simply have to endure. What would Magos Hermitius think if you were to get injured before we even make it to the mission site?"

[Hemnon]

not listening to the very rude guy, she makes a ''humpf'' sound, she then takes her mask on again. activates her cameo, and dissapears from site.


to all
she is once more cameoflaged.


to quint
can't he take a hint?? he offened her.

[wadams5]

Quint calls after her “Studies show that proper safety protocol can positively modify “incident” survival ratings from point zero one two, to point zero three six of one percent. That’s a two hundred percent survival probability increase… Oh dear. Bloody lost her, haven’t I. Oh well, Can’t say I didn’t warn her.”

[Hemnon]

in an atempt to calm her self, she starts the hum a melodi, witch you all are unfamilliar with.

the hum comes from the seat with the purple polstring, still cameoflaged, but you can see her

[wadams5]

Quint pretends not to notice.

"Tricky business, the conveying of man between the stars, aye Mr. Vect?" Quint remarks fraternally to the robed machine cultist in the seat next to him with a subtle elbow nudge.

“Anyone take an interest in stellar navigation? It’s really quite a fascinating subject!”

[Saldre]

Everybody:

At the wall at the other end of your (relatively) private waiting room, a flash of light catches your attention as a screen, up until now pitch black, suddenly turns on to a picture of the magos' office, exactly as you remember it- along with the man himself, standing at the center of the various cogs and wheels that fill the room. Moments after, his mechanical voice rises from the speakers on both sides of the screen.

"I am Magos Hermitius, and if you are listening to this, you must be nearing your destination."

His voice is cold and stern, and you can tell he is a man not to be trifled with.

"I have requested that the crew play this prerecorded message before your descent trough the atmosphere begins, as should you should prepare yourselves both mentally and physically to the trials ahead-"

The man's image fades, being replaced by a display of Dusk itself. It spins around itself a few times before zooming further and further down a tiny spot in a seemingly completely random spot, and as it does so, the magos' voice drones on.

"This is Dusk- an archaic planet classified as a Death World by the Imperium. A colleague of mine, Magos Jeremiah Morgan is organizing an expedition into the forests and marshlands."

The picture of the planet fades for a moment, replaced by a picture of Jeremiah Morgan himself, only to be swapped yet again with the picture of a third tech-priest.

"This is Magos Romulus Williamson- the purpose of Magos' Morgan's expedition is to determine the fate of Williamson and his party."

The picture is replaced once more with the image of Dusk, and continues zooming down to a specific village.

"Magos Williamson had himself lead an expedition into these same jungles to map and study ancient ruins, whose origins remain unknown. All contact was lost with the Magos two weeks ago, and no trace of his party has been found. Magos Morgan wishes to locate this previous expedition and continue its work.

For various reasons, you have been selected for your various skills, knowledge and talents to supplement this expedition and assist the Magos in this Task- a servitor should deliver further information to you as we speak."

No sooner does he finish his sentence, a servitor comes walking by holding several scrolls in his mechanical hands. To each of the acolytes, he hands a different one. When he is finished, he leaves just as quickly as he had entered. As you look over the scrolls, the Magos's voice catches your attention once more.

"You will Rendez-vous with Magos Morgan in the village of Selise, from which you will head out into the Jungles- as for the scrolls, you won't have time to read them: your descent begins now."

The screen goes black, and without as much as a warning from the pilots, the rumbling of engines begins to shake the entire room as the ship begins its descent into the atmosphere. Conversations becomes impossible as the loud rattling of metal and steel seem to pound into your heads, louder and louder- drowning out your very thoughts.

The Ordeal lasts a good twenty minutes before the ruckus subsidies and a heavy thud indicates that the ship has indeed landed on the platform without incidents.

"Were emptying the ships- please exit the craft and wait for your items on the docking platform." The voice of the pilot blares out over the vox casters, but you have trouble hearing it- the ringing of metal still resonating in your head.

With the hatch open, the unpleasant odor of the swamps of Dusk is almost tangible. A foreboding fog has settled around the docking platform, and the road leading to the rest of the village is barren.

As you wait for your things to be delivered, you all have a chance to examine your scrolls, and read the information within.

Viper: Your scroll has the seal of the Officio stamped on it.

Glory to the Emperor,

You have been hired to ensure the survival of an important Individual, and to bring down those that would seem him harmed: Adept Quintus is under your charge.

Glory to the Omnissiah,
Brother Nihilius, your task is simple: assist Magos Morgan in his expedition, so that we may strengthen our knowledge and grow in power.
His will be done

Alakain:

Assuming you are also a skitarii, from a forgeworld that is, your scroll also contains lists of binary: reading them over, your instructions are simple: you are to obey Brother Nihilius, and have been assigned to his protection.

Father Morisson: The Aquilla is stamped onto your scroll.

Father Morisson,

The Church of the Emperor has gotten word of an expedition to the Warp-tainted planet known as Dusk. As such, it is only natural that we assign an agent of the Emperor to both supervise and ensure the moral values of the parties involved.

Your tasked with both keeping up moral, and making sure that no one suffers the effect of corruption.

The Five members in this squad have been assigned to it by the Inquisition, and you have full authority over them. If you are questioned, reveal this scroll. If you are questioned again, grant them the Emperor's Mercy, as corruption has no doubt settled into their minds.

Remember: An unprotected soul can no more cross the storms of the warp than a heretic can bear the gaze of the Inquisition.

Faith is the strongest shield.

[Hemnon]

''viper''

she stops humming when the whole side-show begins....

when the side-show ended and the servitor handed out letters, she took it and began reading....

deactivates her cameo and then speaks to the whole team
''stay in here everyone, untill i report back over the comm-bead. im gonna scout the area, we have no idea what might lurk in these swamps...''her voice filled with a mixture of excitement, a passion of some sort, and a little bit of fear.

in an instant she is not longer visible anymore. she sprints out of the cargo bay and towards the nearest tree, firing her grapnel at some of the highest branches on the tree.

climb check[roll0]: 36 +10(climb +10) ??(grapnel)=46
does my salvation auger pick up anything?
awareness test rolled in OOC.

she then attaches her clip harness to the wire and activates the grapnels mechanical lifting...as she swirls towards the top she stop at a thick branch, and then jumps on to it.

on the branch she then activates her IR-googles and slide them in place, and starts looking for possible treats.

[Saldre]

Nihilius:

You have heard both names before- as Williamson's is very notorious in certain circles. He's famous for his outlandish theories pertaining to Xenos and ancient human ancestry.

Morgan on the other-hand is known for his level-head, and his work advancing various fields of biological research. He was an old student of Williamson, as such, it is not surprising that he'd go after him: he'd be one of the few people that actually care about the missing Magos.

Viper:

The area around is completely barren- the tree you find is one of the few which, although burnt and brittle by exposure to the few ships that land here from time, can support your weight.

Nothing moves around you- and you can't see very far in the fog, which seems to have spread all the way to the top of the tree.

[wadams5]

“Yes, yes of course. Run along my dear, Remember to stop and smell the roses... well, not literally of course. I don’t think the atmosphere will permit smelling of any kind.” Quint finishes the sentence with a restrained laugh, eyes glued to the paperwork in his hands. “What I mean to say is, do have fun, Viper. Off you go then.” When he's finished, he looks up to find her already gone, and gives a slight shrug.

Quint beckons the servitor and instructs it to produce better light by which to read and sign the various documents he had been handed during the in-flight movie. He gets up from time, kneeling down in order to use the hard flat seat as a writing surface, flourishing his auto-quill like a symphony conductor.

[Hemnon]

activating comm-bead

''This is viper, come in joker...thats you quint!, from now on your comm-name is joker. Atmosphere breathable, no signs of hostile creatures. The fog out here is very thick so watch your step when you come outside.'' she says with a controlled voice.

''Oh and by the way ''Joker''...'' she says in a mocking tone. DO NOT TALK TO ME LIKE IM SOME SORT OF LITTLE GIRL!!!... EVER!. I HAVE SEEN STUFF WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU VOMIT. SO SHUT THE HELL UP WITH THE CHILD TALK...''she hisses through the comm. Are we clear?!She says, while atempting to control her voice.
Deactivats comm-bead.

''By the emperor...''She then mutters to her self, as she turns towards the ship, and looks towards the cargo bay opening...

[wadams5]

To everyone still inside the cabin:
"Touchy little thing, isn’t she. Must have struck a nerve." Quint says in a low voice after momentarily muting his com. "Isn’t she just adorable though?"

Quint switches his micro-bead back on, and speaks in sincere tones,
"Viper. Yes, of course, Just trying to be personable Milady. I assure you I meant no harm. You're doing a great job. Aces, really. Keep up the good work."

[Mekboy]

Slightly smiling, Nihilius Vekt steps outside of the carrier into the open air of the new world. Ah, Williamson and Morgan. Those names ring a bell. As I recall, Williamson had more than a few crazy theories about ancient humanity and xenos. Morgan was an old student of his. Anyway, I suppose I may as well have a look around myself

[Alakain]

Angellus Tylonious gets up out of his seat with a big yawn, stretching on the way over to his equipment. Equipping his D'laku Hellgun pack and gun to his back and delicately placing a very decked out Vanaheim shotgun in his hands. He smiles at the scenery layed out before him, and says to himself, Welcome to paradise.

[Hemnon]

While sitting on the branch she suddenly sees angellus. she tilts her head to the side, and chooses to call him over the comm-link. smiling a bit as she watches him.


Comm-link to:Angellus(and him only)

''This is viper, hey sleepy-head finally awake??''giggling a little at her own question. Her voice have warmer emotions than she have shown to the group so far.

[Alakain]

"Hey, Viper...Where you at I don't see you anywhere." Angellus say's back to Viper only while putting the rest of his gear on. and glancing now and then out to the scenery lookin about the fog.

[Hemnon]

pondering for a short time over the question ''Im checking the perimeter for hostile creatures, so far negative on the hostiles.
'' she answered while she keeps observing him from the distance.
''Why do you ask?'' she then teases him.

She lowers herself down from the tree using her clip harness, and sneaks back towards the rest of the group(she is still cameoflaged)

Consealment:(rolled in the OOC) Ag 40 +20(Hardened body glove)=60 total
Anyone trying to notice her gets a -20 on their Awareness test

[Alakain]

"I'm getting geared up for the upcoming day and wondering when we are heading out.This is a strange place, never been anywhere like this before." Angellus says looking up and scanning the large massed fog and now and then looking to see what the rest of the group is doing.
[roll0]

Angellus, Keeping an eye on the Camoflauged being, seeing the feminine shape of the being, Angellus will say to her over the comm-links(just Viper) "Is that you walking towards the group?" "Why are you camoflauged?"

[Hemnon]

''huh...?''viper replies to angellus over comm.''argh..throne!'' she complains, and looks down herself
''forgot to deactivate my cameo..'' she then says sheepishly, and suddenly she is visible again.

she keeps walking over to the rest of the group.

[Alakain]

Finishing up getting all his gear in order and double checking it, Angellus goes over and leans up against the cargo unit, smoothes out his beard. After a moment he pulls out his pipe, packs it and then lights it. Still leaning against the cargo unit he inhales and blows out a ring of smoke relaxed he awaits for the rest of the group to get settled.

[Hemnon]

she walks towards a rock near the group, that she can sit on, and takes her mask off on the way there. after she got the mask off, she Shaked her head so the hair got collected at her neck, and flowed down her back.
as she sees angellus look at her she passes him a warm smile.

[Alakain]

Blowing another smoke ring in the air he asks Viper as she passes by,"What do you think is out there, waiting for us?" In a very curious tone. After speaking, he sends another ring into the air. And then checks his very crude shotgun to make sure everything is fully loaded and ready to be fired when needed.

[wadams5]

After finishing up his paperwork and filing it neatly away in his pack, Quint clips his air filter to his belt, and straps on his helmet, infrared goggles strapped over the brim, giving him an awkward profile. Quint walks down the loading ramp of the landing craft, holding the Vid-recorder to face himself, with the view screen adjusted in a manner that allows him to see himself as he talks into it.

(Quint's Video Log)

“Would you look at that! What a wonderful sky!”

Quint turns the camera and slowly sweeps it across the strange misty horizon, saying “It’s impossible to get a real grasp of the view on vid, but let me tell you, its really breath taking.”

Quint turns the camera back to himself, closing his eyes for a moment and drawing a deep breath, letting the smells of the planet fill his nose, and exhaling a contented sigh. “Praise the emperor but I do just love about my job. But enough about me. Let’s get cracking, shall we?” Quint rattles off a few insubstantial notes on the time and date of arrival, planetary and imperial standard, the navigation coordinates of dusk in long form, and an alphanumeric code by which the vid-recording would be classified and filed, all the while trying to hide his boyish grin.

“As you can see, it’s Dusk here on Dusk.” He allows a single chuckle to be recorded. “ The weather is rather foggy and he temperature is warm and very humid.”

Quint points the camera at a muddy boot print made by another member of the crew only moments before. “The ground is damp, a bit soggy in spots, and there is a tinge to the air of something not far removed from the smell of rancid cabbage. I suspect that it shall be quite balmy in the mid-day hours.” He explains with with an odd exuberance in his voice.

He goes on to document the diferent species of flora and fauna surrounding the landing site. Then he pans over the crew members one by one, adding “As we go, I will make my best effort to record a short interview with each member of our crew at their convenience.”

[Hemnon]

''i haven't got the faintest idea, angellus'' she repiled with a smirk.

with that said she began making some of her stretch exercises, to warm up all of her muscles.

still keeping a hidden eye on angellus, she starts with exercise number 1...

[blackouttwo]

Father Morrison, after taking his time to utter a fairly long series of prayers to the Emperor in a nervous tone, stands. He looks at the swampy ground of Dusk disdainfully as he steps off the ship, cringing, and half-expecting the ground to immediately swallow him.

After waiting a moment with nothing happening, he heads for the equipment crate marked for him, and frantically begins to don his environmental bodysuit, and a very well-crafted suit of Stormtrooper Carapace Armor. He then puts a very well-designed photovisor and gas mask on, concealing his face entirely.

Only then does he seem to calm down, and take a deep breath. His voice is muffled by the gas mask at first. Mmhmwamemem! It'll sound like complete gibberish, but he then remembers to turn on his microbead.

OK, there we go. Much better.

[Alakain]

Watching the priest freak out in the "normal" atmosphere, Angellus says to Father Morrison "Quit being a panic-monger, we're stuck here in this wonderful swamp to take a look around and we'll be outta here before ya know it. Don't fret too much. You're carrying a boltgun." Angellus points out the boltgun that the priest is carrying.

[blackouttwo]

Father Morrison turns to look at the Skitarii, his facial expression concealed by the combination of the gas mask and photovisor. He mutters quietly. They call it a deathworld for a reason... He digs down further into his crate, and pulls out what appears to be a backpack(still large, but smaller than the crate). The priest struggles with it for a brief moment and then opens it. Let's see now...rations, check. Auspex, recoil glove, lascutter, grapnel, check...

[Alakain]

"The planet is fine, it looks like a Lovley place of decay,it shouldnt be too bad. Just take some time to get used to it, and take the rediculus gas mask off, the air is fine to breath. It's not going to kill ya man." Angellus says to the Priest while tapping the burned up tobacco out of his pipe, and cleaning it out.

[blackouttwo]

Oh, just you wait. Some plant's going to spray spores, or some crazed wild animal is going to try and rip my face off, or something. It's for the best. The gas mask stays on, end of discussion. He adjusts the gas mask, and then turns back to his backpack. Now, did I pack my magnoculars...Aha, there they are...

[Alakain]

"You freak out way to easily, there arn't going to be any of those things you just said, relax. You'll be no good in any fight if your constantly panicking." Angellus says in an inspiring way to.Father Morrison, to try and get him to grow a spine. Angellus pats the Father on the back with his heavy muscled arm after saying that and takes a seat on the cargo crate next to the Priest. And settles down repacs his pipe and lights it.

[blackouttwo]

The priest makes no indication that he's noticed the Skitarii repacking his smoking pipe, and resumes searching his backpack. Always remember, boy. The Emperor protects. But he protects you better when you know how to protect yourself- Aha! He pulls a very fine-bladed chain-axe out of the backpack, unwrapping it from some protective cloth. Yes! Now I can solve up to eight-hundred problems a minute!

[Alakain]

I doubt that thing can solve eight hundred problems.This though can" Angellus says holding up his Vanaheim shotgun. Angellus blows a smoke ring down from the bin after he sets the Vanaheim in his lap so that it goes right around the diameter of his head.

[Hemnon]

Being more interested in the discussion than the stretching, she walks over to the cleric and guardsman.

''Mighty cleric of the god emperor, aren't you supposed to, like be a holy man?? Not fearing anything, but the might of the emperor?...'' she asked in a criticizing voice.

[blackouttwo]

Foolish is the man who knows everything and fears nothing. The priest quotes another famous Imperial saying as he regains his composure. The Emperor rewards those who are prepared, as they say. Faith and piety are strong, and faith with more earthly preparations...that combination is undefeatable. Father Morrison chuckles a bit behind his gas mask.

[Hemnon]

At the word ''Faith'', she gets nervous for a second before she regain her posture.

In an atempt to change the subject, she asks''Well...shall we get going, or do we wait for something to come and eat us??''The eating part is filled with sarcasm.

[wadams5]

Quint approaches the group near the crate casually, capturing some candid footage. “Here you can see three of our number gathered around an equipment crate engaging in a bit of healthy camaraderie.”

After getting a shot of the group, quint turns the camera on himself. “Shall we make our introductions then?”

Quint approaches the group, turning the camera back to the crew. “Hello there. Forgive this imposition but I was wondering if I could persuade you all to introduce yourselves on the video log. I should also like to get a short interview with each of you during the duration of the trip, at your convenience, of course.”

[Hemnon]

As quint advances towards them, she quickly takes her mask on before she gets caught on tape.

''Let me take take the questions now, cuz i don't want to do this when we are out there'' She points at the swampy jungle.

''Give me the first question...'' Her voice has a hint of anoyance in it.



To Quint
just give her all the questions in one post, then i will post a reply to them all

[Alakain]

"I die standing, not running around panicking, about toxic gas and plants that eat us. And it would be foolish to go into combat not equipped anyways so...I don't see the whole being prepared in a earthly fashion helping us more then just being prepared in general. Angellus says back to Morrison in response to his quote and chuckles. Saying it with a smile as he turns to respond to the new member with the lovley camera.

"And hi Quint, whats with the camera? Are you going to be recording us fighting?" Angellus blows another ring of smoke in the air, smiling as it vanishes into the distance.

[blackouttwo]

The Emperor does not reward stupidity, Skitarii. Faith is my shield, and an arsenal fit for the Space Marines themselves is my blade. The priest resumes taking inventory of his equipment before finally nodding, satisfied.

[wadams5]

To Angellus: "Oh I’m sure I will should I get the chance. I’ll be making a thorough record of our expedition for general research purposes. It’s very important work, actually. The footage should come in very handy when I make my presentation to the committee. After all, the inquisition isnt made of money you know. We'll need to make an impression if we wish to maintain and advance our careers."

(ooc:) to all

These interview questions may be used by default when posting your vid-log interviews. Feel free to take liberties with the wording of the questions.


“Ah, Well. If you would, please do us the courtesy of introducing yourself to the viewers.”

“Indeed. And what is your primary function on this expedition?”

“Intriguing! I’m sure I can speak to the viewers when I say that we’re all looking forward to seeing you in action. So, I’m told you have quite a bit of experience with this sort of thing. Would you care to elaborate?”

“Ah, well that’s just fascinating, isn’t it? And finally, in the event that our mission should turn out badly, is there anything you would like to add for posterity?”

[Alakain]

"To me stupidity is freaking out and over-reacting with being on a new planet. Theres not going to be man eating plants or toxic gasses, and don't fret, we have these nice guns to stop any of those things.

"So when are we going to go sight seeing? Visit the ruins? Angellus says, trying his best to change the subject.

[blackouttwo]

I've been to deathworlds before, Angellus. It wasn't pretty. The name says it all, besides. Father Morrison looks around the swamps near the landing pad, and shrugs. The machine cultists will let us know when we need to leave.

[Alakain]

"Oh, I can't wait to get movin, legs are starting to stiffin up. Maybe we'll get to kill somthing the first day? Hmmmm..." Angellus says to the Father Morrison. Still trying to change the subject.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

After several minutes, a (relatively) small floating platform approaches your luggage. At its helm, an attached servitor glances from side to side, recording the scene. Two robotic arms rise from its sides and slowly begin loading your heavier gear and boxes aboard.

Soon, it exits the cargo-ship and, moving besides you, the mechanical voice of the servitor disturb the eerie silence that had settled around you after the ringing in your ear had stopped.

"We have arrived to the village of Selis, please follow me to your next destination."

The servitor doesn't wait- the platform immediately begins to move into the fog, on a set path. Following it, you walk away from the landing pad. Looking down, you notice a worn and beaten road- and it only after several minutes that you spot the vague outline of a structure ahead.

Soon, it becomes clearly visible: a gate. Spreading from both of its side, a flimsy stone wall seems to go around the entire landing zone. Beyond the gate and the wall, bright lights fight against the fog, providing you with a greater line of sight. In the distance, an ominous building towers over the village, seemingly watching over it.

After passing by several derelict houses, you can't help but notice how empty the village seems to be. From time to time, you can hear windows slamming shut seconds before you approach them.

Eventually, you reach the village square.

"Your items are to be delivered to the Great Fortress" The servitor says, before continuing towards the giant building you'd seen earlier.

But from your position, you spot something that catches your attention: a house, larger then the others, that's also considerably more active. The sign that sways with the wind above the door informs you it is the local tavern.

[Hemnon]

(OOC: the indigo text is quints questions)

as they walk trough the village, viper answers those questions from quint.

''Ah, Well. If you would, please do us the courtesy of introducing yourself to the viewers.''

''My name does not concern anyone, but you can call me ''viper''. im 19 Terra cycles but thats just a number, because i never was a child...'' She answered the first question with a monotone voice.

''Indeed. And what is your primary function on this expedition?''

''To make sure you survive quint, and to kill all who is a treat to you.'' She said, still with a monotone voice.

''Intriguing! I’m sure I can speak to the viewers when I say that we’re all looking forward to seeing you in action. So, I’m told you have quite a bit of experience with this sort of thing. Would you care to elaborate?''

''Can't say i have experince with protecting people, i usually kill the target of the contract.'' This question, she answered with a smirk.

''Ah, well that’s just fascinating, isn’t it? And finally, in the event that our mission should turn out badly, is there anything you would like to add for posterity?''

''Well...IF it turn out bad, then i use these...'' At the word ''use'' she draws two chainswords, and makes the chains spin.

[Alakain]

Angellus finishes reading the letter they got before landing, right as they reach the town. After doing so he says out loud "Oh, crud." And runs up right next to the Tech-Priest and moves into a position as if he's a body guard, brandishing his Vanaheim shotgun in front of him.

[Hemnon]

As the group advances, viper looks around for any possible threats...

Awareness:[roll0] vs. 40 Per +10(awareness +10) +20(IR-googles)=70

[Alakain]

Now that Angellus is at his respective post, he'll check and make sure that all of his guns are loaded and are not on any safties. Then after checking that,"Would you like to go inside the inn, and get out of this mucky and cold atmosphere?" He'll ask the Tech Priest. Already heading into the inn as he says it, patting him on the back on his way by.

[wadams5]

Quint walks along side the platform filming himself talking as he goes, every so often turning the camera to document points of interest.

Vid-Log

Quint turns the camera on himself, speaking with the enthusiasm of an investigative reporter. “We are now making our way through the town of Selis.”

He pans the camera across the empty streets, catching the occasional citizen off guard. ”The natives seem a bit… unfriendly. I would reckon that there’s something fishy afoot. Yes. Very fishy I’d say. This great hulk of a construction, as I’m sure you are aware, is the great fortress, and over here we have a large building, the local public house, if I had to guess.”

[Hemnon]

As angellus moves to the tavern, viper grabs a carapace plate in quint's armour and drags him with her untill he follow her by himself.

any place but here would be nice, i could use a shower right now. By the emperor, I hope they got baths here... she said with actual concern filling her voice.

[wadams5]

Quint flails his arms in protest as Viper yanks him in a different direction by the scruff of his carapace in mid sentence. “Unhand me! Alright then. I’m coming. By the emperor all you had to do was ask, girl”

Quint takes a quick moment to dust himself off and regain his composure. "You’re too strong for your britches, you are. Oh dear. Bloody armor gave me a nasty pinch!" he whines.

[Saldre]

Everybody who went to the Tavern:

Approaching the tavern, you hear commotion from within, suggesting the presence of a large crowd. Voices, speaking in a strange tongue you can only assume to be the local Duskian Dialect, argue together in an incomprehensible ruckus.

One of you, faster then the others, opens the wooden doors only for a deathly silence to fall over the patrons as they collectively turn to face your group.

Despite being filled to the brim, the tavern was now completely quiet. An eternity seems to pass before the spell breaks and the various locals return to their drinking, now making a point of averting the newcomers' gaze.

You feel an almost tangible hostility directed towards you from the crowd as you scan it for anything of interest.

Only one thing really catches your attention- and its relatively hard to miss: amidst all of the locals, two men stand out. One, with black hair and a loud and rash voice, yells something out to the waitress before turning to face his friend and mumbling something- that, though you can't understand because of the renewed ruckus, are certain is low gothic. The other is quietly sipping a drink- looking rather pale.

[Hemnon]

''Ahh, much better'' Taking her mask of while she speaks.

''So boys, shall we find a table??'' viper asked to the rest of the group.

[Mekboy]

Following Angellus into the in, Nihilius finds himself to be the target of most of the customers stare.
They're either really unused to offworlders, or they don't realise that even us techpriests need something to drink now and again. We're not completely made of the sacred machine. he comments dryly, glancing around for somewhere for the group to sit.

[Saldre]

Nihilius

The Tavern is very crowded- there doesn't seem to be any tables available for your party...

[Hemnon]

viper walks over to the nearest table, and asks with a sweet voice ''Hey there we need a table, so would you move?''

Charm:[roll0] vs 10 fellowship

[Saldre]

Viper:

Viper steps up to a nearby table, but even as she attempts to charm them- its occupants rudely ignore her.

They merely give the assassin a passing glance before shifting their chairs and turning their backs to her.

[Hemnon]

she remains next to the table, waiting for the uncomfortable feeling to really gnaw in them.

[Saldre]

Viper:

The atmosphere is tense enough as is- they don't seem to be willing to budge, but you can feel them squirming under your relentless stare.

It seems the uncomfortable is already gnawing at everybody- the majority of the patrons are jittery. From time to time, you spot a customer or other giving you, and the rest of the group, the evil eye- before going back to his drink when you look his way.

[Hemnon]

She stretches her arm out to reach quint(again),and asks first him, then teh rest of the group ''How about you try and persuade them to leave...Or what about another one of you guys?''

[Alakain]

Before Viper gets Quint involved, Angellus steps up and tells the group at the table "The lady asked nicley.Now please get up and let her atleast have a seat. Or we can take this outside." Angellus uses intimidation to try and get someone to move from the table for Viper.

[roll0] Stregth= 40

[Saldre]

Everybody:

The group says nothing when the skitarii advances, they simply glare at him- with a hint of fear in their eyes. Grabbing their mugs, they stand and move to the end of the room.

As they do so, when of them faces the group and points a shaky finger at them, babbling something in the local dialect before rejoining his friends.

Once more, the entire tavern falls silent as all of the patrons focus their attention at your group.

A Low Gothic check to try and understand what he said

[Hemnon]

as the table gets empty, viper desides to take a seat.

low gothic:[roll0] vs. 40 Int +??(any bonuses for easy understanding, or are the dialect too much OFF standard low gothic??)

[Alakain]

Angellus will wait for the rest of the group to sit, keeping an eye on the group that left, and after hearing the guy say jibberish he says,"Eh, whatever." And then waves away toward them with his hand and takes a seat.


[roll0] Low gothic roll. Intellegence = 40

[Saldre]

Viper:

You recognize the roots of the word- and its spoken tone. You had heard it before (repeatedly) and have grown familiar with its meaning: Cursed he'd called you; an Ill Omened lot.

Tech-priest:

You can barely make out what he says- the local dialect is archaic, and has long ago devolved into its own language. One this is certain, he had not wished you luck, and one thing one certain: none of you were welcome here.

This immediately apparent when, after several minutes of waiting, no one has yet to serve you.

[Hemnon]

In the same second she recognize the insult, she slings out her own in a high mocking tone. ''screw you too mister...'' and gives him the finger, while she sitting relaxed with her legs strected out and crossed.

her eyes still on high alert, jumping trom each person showing hostile movements.

awareness:(roll in OOC) vs. Perception: 40 +10(awareness-bonus +10) +10(Hightened sense: seeing&hearing)= 60total

[wadams5]

"Oh dear." Quint mutters under his breath as his eyes scan the room for cover, still recording the scene in front of him.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

There are over twenty people around- as the tension becomes more and more tangible until finally someone breaks the silence...

"Your not from around here, are you?"

It is the black-haired man you'd seen when you entered the tavern. Standing up, he moves towards your group.

"My Name's Devlin- and you must be the new recruits."

He extends a hand as he approaches, awaiting for one of you to step up.

[wadams5]

"Oh- Yes. Yes, of course that is precisely who we are. We are the new recruits." Quint proclames a little too confidently.

"I’m Quint, and this is Father Morrison, and Mr. Vekt, Angellus over here, and this is Viper. Quite pleased you meet you, Devlin. How do you do?"

Quint leans forward and offers to shake hands with the man, while keeping his other hand outstretched to the side in order to capture the whole thing on vid.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

Devlin lets out a hearty laugh as he catches a glimpse of the camera and gives the adept a rather powerful pat on the back.

"Fine- We have to be, if were setting out tomorrow. Sit, sit!" He says, motioning towards the table.

He then waves in his friend's general direction and the other man soon joins your group. He mumbles a muffled greeting and introduces himself as Chirurgian Lithonius, before quietly taking a seat nearby.

"You had better enjoy your first- and last- night in the village, once were out in the jungle, you will come to miss... Selise's hospitality..." He says with a grin. "But I would pay these locals no mind- they are but superstitious village folk- afraid of their own shadows."

He raises his hand and, speaking the local dialect, calls out for a waitress. A woman soon arrives with several mugs already filled to the brim. She lays them out on the table and leaves immediately, without even taking payment.

"Lucky for me, I am used to these types of expeditions- and I assure you, there's no reason to worry: Magos Morgan is quite the man, if anybody can find-out what happened to the others, he's the one."

He says, grabbing a mug and raising it towards them.

"Let's drink to our health and with it, a successful expedition."

[OOC; Feel free to ask him questions- or do anything else you can think of :P]

[Hemnon]

''so.. what are the myths around here?? i allways injoy listening to new ones.'' viper asked i an atempt to conversate.

[Alakain]

Angellus sits, relaxes and forgetting the group that pointed at him speaking jibberish, he takes a deep breath and starts at it with his drink sitting there quietly to himself. And after about half of his drink is gone Angellus will say,"When we leave I think we should use call signs instead of our full names." Talking out loud to the group.

[Hemnon]

In a response to the 'callsign' question viper answered ''well thats an easy one Angelboy....im STILL ''viper''....oh and im calling Quint joker, just for the heck of it...and no, i will not call him something else. '' As she meantions Quint by name she throws a quick glance at him, and then returns her eyes back on Angellus, with a little smile on her mildly pink lips.

[blackouttwo]

Morrison has remained quiet the entire time, finally speaking up when Angellus brings up the subject of callsigns. Preacher.

Short, simple, and to the point. The priest is keeping an eye on several of the patrons around the bar, trying to make sure none of them pull anything. Deathworlders were a rough bunch, and if any of them got unruly, even with the group's equipment, they might harm the team pretty badly.

[Alakain]

In response to Viper and Preacher, Angellus says "Okay, then you can call me Archangel." And then goes back to his drink. After a while Angellus speaks up around him asking "What the hell is up with this place? Why is eeryone looking at me funny while I drink? One more person gives me that freakin evil eye one more time, and it will not be pretty what happens to him!"

[blackouttwo]

Morrison nods in agreement with the guardsman. You're right. The locals need to learn to trust offworlders. Deathworlders don't often have a high opinion of anyone but other deathworlders. I should know. I've fought alongside them, and they hated me. But this is ridiculous.

[Alakain]

To: GM
Does anyone give Angellus a bad look?[roll0]

Perception/Awareness = 30

[Saldre]

Angelus:

You can spot several people staring at you, but they quickly avert their eyes when you turn to face them.

Everybody:

"Myths? There's tons of them- but I wouldn't worry your pretty little head about these stories." Devlin answers and takes a rather large gulp from his mug.

"If you must know, its about those ruins were going to visit. Its why the locals don't take kindly to us: they don't like it that were digging around outside of the walls. They say Williamson's party got what they deserved: that they were spirited away by the devils that inhabit the murky jungles- and that were going to end up the same; if were lucky that is." He explains. The good doctor sitting besides him shudders as he quietly contemplates his drink, listening to Devlin's speech.

"I said it once- I will say it again, pay them no heed: I have been on countless expeditions before, and though granted, you all look like your fresh off the shuttle- Morgan is an experienced explorer: and he's hired quite the muscle to join us. You should go check in with him (He's probably at the Fortress), and turn in early: I believe he intends to leave first thing in the morning... and I don't think you could handle it with a hangover. He finishes, taking another of the mugs laying around and proceeding to empty it as well.

[Alakain]

Angellus will finish his drink and then get up and walk over to one of the guys that was staring at him and will ask him a brief series of questions...

Angellus asks in a curious tone..
"Whys there so much tension in the air in here?"

Angellus asks/states very loudly
"Whats this stuff that I am hearing about devils? I am their worst nightmares!"

Angellus asks the guy in a tone, inferring that he should buy him another round.
"And how long does it take to get another round of drink?"

[Hemnon]

getting very offended by Devlins comment about her 'little head' she replies ''MY.. PRETTY.. LITTLE.. HEAD!!!?'' she growles at him.

''do you injoy life mr. Devlin?? cuz i can quickly end it for you if you wish...'' she continued with a little sarcasm in her voice.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

Devlin, obviously getting rather drunk, bursts into an uncontrollable laughter as the girl growls at him.

"Your going to need thicker skin that then if your going to make it out there-" He starts to answer back, but stops as he notices Angelus standing up and yelling out his proclamation. "Ha- a bold statement. Its a shame none of them can understand it."

"You want to know why its tense? These people blame us for almost everything: there's been sightings you see- of a great black "thing" in the sky that supposedly swept down and grabbed Williamson and his crew. Now the locals are scared were going to lead it right back here- after it develops a taste for human flesh after feasting on all of the expedition we keep sending its way." He answers, explaining why the locals seem to dislike the newcomers. "But I will tell you this: when were out there tomorrow, don't get roped into these stories. The real danger here comes from underneath: the jungles are murky, and you never know what will reach out and grab your ankles when your nose is up in the air."

"As for another drink- I have had enough for an evening, and its about time we turn in. Magos Morgan won't wait for us, that's for sure. Were heading back to the Barracks in the fortress" He says, tapping the Doctor besides him on the shoulder. "I would advise you to do the same."

[Alakain]

After hearing Devlin speak Angellus spins around saying, They can't understand me?... How big is this black creature that you say took Williamson's party? Is it a Daemon or might it be something else? Maybe we should post a guard for the village tonight just as a precaution. All questions are directed towards Devlin and the Doctor and are all said in a calm tone of voice.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

"Of course not- None of these people speak a word of low Gothic- as for the size of the thing, some say its as big as sky itself: like I said, these are legends that should not distract you from our mission." He answers him. "There are plenty of guards around the walls- there are plenty of flesh and bloods creature that menace the safety of the village without needing to add the supernatural to the lot."

[Hemnon]

''shall we move on, then??'' viper asks with a tone saying 'i-don't-want -to-spent-another-minute-here'

[Alakain]

"Yes I say we do get going, it was a good journey here and I think we all agree when I say we need some shut eye for the night. Let's go to the stronghold then, right?" Angellus picks up his backpack and leaves out the door.

[Mekboy]

Having been silent for a while, Nihilius speaks up.

Yes, it would probably be best if we got some sleep now. Plus it would probably calm these superstitious locals if we left.

[Saldre]

Everybody:

The way to the fortress is obvious to everybody: its shadow covers the entire town, giving it an ominous appearance.

Once you reach its massive steel doors, you hear a loud hiss of steam being released as hidden cogs and wheels begin to turn and the path opens ahead of you.

Standing at the center of the road, between the group and the inner sanctum, a floating Servo skull awaits. When you approach it, a cold mechanical voice fills the air- with the Mechanicus bringing contraptions like these around, the local's distrust of strangers and superstitious tendencies seemed justified.

"We have been expecting you- please follow me to your quarters, Magos Morgan has retired for the evening but requests that you be ready to leave at first light. Please follow me to your quarters, where your possessions are already waiting"

The Servo skull leads you towards the Barracks and the two separate rooms prepared for your group. In the first, The Tech-priest and the Skitarii find their bags and crates waiting- the room is aesthetically bland, but architecturally efficient. In the other room, Quint, Viper and the Father find themselves rather cramped- but they would have to make due: a full night's rest was necessary if they wanted to be alert for the dangers of the expedition.

"Please prepare your belongs before sleep- We will be taking anything left behind in the crates first thing int he morning."

Crucial moment- I want to know what you guys are taking with you and what you guys are leaving in the boxes to be carried by servitors and the like. Keep in mind encumbrance rules.

[Hemnon]

not worrying about her gear, because its all in her packpack, she goes to her bed and starts taking off the first suit(hardened body glove)

when she got that one off she begins with the envirosuit as well. not worrying about the two guys in the room, she takes the rest of her clothes off(fully naked) and then she gets into bed.


''Ah....it will be nice to get some sleep...'' She says, as she crawls in the nice warm bed.

[Alakain]

Angellus will keep everything with himself, and he'll head off to his room taking off his Guard-flak armor and his enviromental suit, After in his street clothes, he checks to make sure the Tech-Priest is well and doesnt need anything. After checking with him he takes his shirt off, and gets into bed after placing a las pistol and knife under the pillow. Due to the many battles of the past Angellus wakes up in the middle of the night to the slightest of sounds. But after his body recieves 6 hours of sleep he wakes up and heads down to the shower, taking his knife with him, tucked in the back of his pants.

After Angellus took his shirt off all of his tattoos are visible. On his shoulders(is on both shoulders) it has the Imperial Guard logo and says across it "I Die Standing." On his back there is a Forge hammer with the hammer head across the shoulder blades, the head is red like it's hot and coming from behind the hammer are a pair of white angel wings. On his chest there are the words "Faith Is Strong, I am Stronger" and going down right below those words are two skulls with a Crucifix in between them and holy flame around it.

[blackouttwo]

Father Morrison does the reasonable thing and leaves his rations with the servitors, along with his grapnel, lascutter, clip/drop harness, and the vox-caster. The priest nods, satisfied with how much he'd be carrying into the field. He'd need to keep an eye on the servitor carrying his equipment, just to be on the safe side.

He heads to his room, taking off his armor and environmental suit but leaving on the robes he was wearing beneath them before going to bed. He makes certain to leave his entire arsenal by the bed.

[Hemnon]

waking up earliest and nothing to do, viper chooses to go take a bath.
turning on the warm water, and waits a bit for it to get warm.
while she undresses, she hears some footsteps out side the door...

[Alakain]

When Angellus gets to the shower door, it is shut and he hears running water coming from the inside. Knocking on the door and asking "Is the shower open?" Angellus waits silently for an answer...

[Hemnon]

with a towel wraped around herself, she goes to the door and opens it....
''ohh..??'' viper gasps, a little shocked that it was angellus standing outside the door.
''ehm... hi, i was just about to take a bath... do you need to...ehhm you know? cuz i could wait with the bath if you are having a crisis..''she said with shyness filling her voice, and a tiny smile on her lips.

[Alakain]

"Hey Viper, good morning, I thought I was the only one that gets up at this time. See ya beat me to the shower, I woke up and felt I needed a shave before we left and was going to take a shower also but you'll have it, so can I use the mirror?" Almost everything is said in a normal tone, but had a very tad bit of un-easyness toward the ending where the question is.

[Hemnon]

''well... sure'' she said, flushing i alittle bit

''but no peeking... or else!'' she treatens him playfully.

[Alakain]

"Thanks, Viper. I won't peek, promise." Angellus walks, scans the room and heads over to the sink pulling out his knife and placing it on the counter and starts wetting his face with water, preparing to shave off his beard that must have taken well over a year to grow.

[Hemnon]

as angellus uses the mirror, viper returns to the bathtub.
she dumbs the towel at her feet without a second tought and steps into the tub, and pulls the curtain to the right, so it covers up the whole bathtub.

[Alakain]

Not peeking when he hears Vipers towel drop, and if he thinks he could see her in the mirror he turns his head away and looks toward the door. He begins to cut off the beard so that it is closer to the chin After he knows shes in the bathtub. Grabbing some gel that he carried with him in a pouch, in his pocket. Angellus rubs it across his chin and taking the knife by the back of the blade he shaves off the remaining hair. eventually getting to his head he cuts it down so that it's shaggy. And then washes the oil that fell in the sink and hair all down the drain and the bigger piles of hair he put's in a trash bin next to the sink. After, he whistles a tune while he checks to make sure he hadnt missed a spot and is debating whether or not to shave his head too. Angellus took about 15 minutes to become clean shaven.

[Hemnon]

viper turns off the water as angellus start whiseling.
''im done here...'' she said in a i-need-to-have-the-bathroom-alone kind of tone.

[Alakain]

"I'm on my way out. I'll be outside the door, just get me when your done so I can get in the shower." Angellus leaves the room through the door rubbing his freshly shaven face.

[Hemnon]

after drying her hair and body, she wraps the towel around herself again.

''there you go, hurry up before the water gets cold...''she says to angellus, as she exits the bathroom and then she heads towards her room to get her armour on again.

[Alakain]

Angellus stops Viper before she goes to her room and asks her "What do you think of the new hair? I could use a womans oppinion."

[Hemnon]

''hmm..'' she walks around him, looking from all angles

i like it...just take a little off the sides-'' she said while she was standing infront of him, and touched his temples with both hands.

''and it would be the hair i want on my kind of guy..'' trailing off the sentence, and awaiting his response...

[Alakain]

Angellus answers with his attention is somwhere else tone of "Uh-huh" And is mean-while distracted and somewhat clumsily staring at Vipers chest.

[Hemnon]

''hey..angellus? angellus??'' viper askes with a bit of concern in her voice..he might be having a heart attack or something.

as she sees his glance she follows his staring eyes, and flushes deep-red as she finds out he is staring at her breasts. she whirls around and start running back to her room, very embarresed she takes her suits on again.

[Alakain]

Angellus, mad at himself for causing a companion of his group to leave, and embarrassed and not able to believe he did that. Angellus Goes back in the bathroom and does what he thinks she said which was take some off the sides, and so he goes to the mirror and takes some off the sides, more focused now, he does it perfectly. Pleased with himself he runs over to Vipers room and knocks on the door shirtless, covered in tattoos and a fixed haircut. "Hey, Viper are you alright? I'm sorry my eyes slipped, I made a mistake. I fixed my hair like you suggested. Angellus sounds sincere when speaking.

[Hemnon]

there is no answer from viper in the room.

[Alakain]

Angellus waits a long while and eventually gives up on waiting and goes back to the bathroom and takes the cold bath that is waiting, drains the water when done, done putting on his clothes, Angellus goes back to his room gets dressed fully and goes and sits outside the door with his crude, ancient Vanaheim shotgun like a guard would, protecting the Tech-Priest while he sleeps.

[Hemnon]

since angellus didn't notice her sitting on the floor cameoflaged, about 4 metres from him, viper decides to stay where she is and just stare a him.

[Alakain]

Angellus mummbles somthing to himself about how stupid he is and hits the wall behind him. He's been obviously thinking about what happened earlier with Viper. After a little bit he gets back to duty and whistles a tune, and taking out a rag he starts polishing the Vanaheim shotgun that was resting up against the wall.

[Hemnon]

sneaking a little closer to angellus without him hearing her. trying to talk to him, but she doesn't do it.

[roll0] vs Ag 40 (-20 to everybody trying to spot her)

[Alakain]

Angellus is looking around and keeping his eyes scanning down the hall, feeling just a little uneasy with a soul-stinging feeling like the one he has when he's near Viper, looking down the hall Angellus whispers "Viper" almost to as if it was whispered to himself. But maintaining his posture he whistles another tune and keeps polishing the Vanaheim shotgun.

[roll0] Awareness, Perception=30

[Hemnon]

stops at the oposite wall infront of angellus.

finding no other way to talk to him, she decides to deactivate her cloaking and takes her mask off. while she does so, she allso sits down on the floor.

looking at angellus's face, trying to read his emotions.

[Alakain]

Angellus looks at her with a look of apology for what happened earlier, and there is a mixture of confusion on his face. He finishes the ending of the tune and apologizes to Viper "I'm sorry about what happened earlier...I don't normally act that way, I don't know why but i didnt feel like myself back there." He looks very sincere like he's completley embarrassed, ashamed and mad at himself all at the same time.

[Hemnon]

being very embarrest, she is allmost speechless ''don't worry about it..'' she mutters, while looking him in the eyes. her cheeks are scarlet red.

she lowers her gaze to the floor after speaking to him, unable to look at him further.

[Alakain]

"Whats wrong?" Angellus asks Viper seeing her head drop and her cheeks glow red. Facial expressions and tone of voice showing that he still feels bad about earlier.

[Hemnon]

she just shakes her head a little, unable to speak. her cheeks glowing ever more pink.

[Alakain]

Angellus works up the nerve to ask Viper "Did I do my hair right, like the way you said would look like a guys hair?" Stuttering at the beginning.

[Hemnon]

throwing a quick glance at his hair, and slowly lowering her gaze again she nods. still bright scarlet cheeks

''I..I-ehh....'' she tries to get the words out but her troat just thightens and makes her unable to speak..again

[Alakain]

"Is it really that bad? Maybe i'll look better bald." Angellus walks off towards the bathroom pulling out his knife on the way, to shave his head bald.

[Hemnon]

''N-no wait...'' she calls out to him, extending her hand towards him.

''its not the hair... i like it as it is...'' she tells him, with an allmost pleading tone.

''its just...'' she tries again, atempting to force the words out of her mouth.

she then indicates with her hand, for him to come back and sit down next to her.

[Alakain]

Angellus heres Vipers voice and turns around to face her. He looks to where she pointed and nods his head "Okay i'll sit with you." And walks over sitting down so that hes in a comfortable position in his armor, which took a while. And then he waits for her to speak.

[Hemnon]

''...sorry..that i just ran off like that i mean'' she said in an apologizing tone.

''I-I'm just not used to, people looking at me at all... and you was just staring at my...ehm you know what i mean...I just..ehm why did you....?? she asked in the end blushing yet again.

[Alakain]

"Uhmm...I don't know why, I just don't." Angellus shakes his head side to side while speaking. "I just don't feel like myself when i'm around you. I feel different, like somthing is drawing me to you, maybe it's your beauty or your confidence."

His voice trails off towards the final words, he hangs his head, not able to help it Angellus has a smirk about his mouth after fore he hasn't yet realized what has been said from his own lips and heart. He was speaking the truth, no doubt about that. Not realizing that he just said that he likes her and thinks shes has beauty. He awaits for the reply from Viper...

[Hemnon]

she burst into a shy Giggle, by angellus's words.

''Thank you....'' she gets those few words out, while she giggle.

as the giggling stops, she leans a little to the side and gives him a kiss on the cheek. she blushes and leans back again.

[Alakain]

"What was that for?" Angellus asks a little surprised by the kiss. Obviously still not understanding what he said.

[Hemnon]

''...well... i just wanted to...'' she said in a soothing voice.

''since you took the liberty of staring at me, and had pleasure of it, i tought it was only fair if i got something back....if you didn't liked it i could kill you instead if that would make you happy. she said in a teasing tone, in a non-treatening way.

[Alakain]

"I would become the toughest fight you'd ever get to have. And could very well be the last if it came to that Viper." All said in a joking manner. "You wanna go for a walk around this place? I'm sick of sitting in my armor on the ground." Angellus asks Viper.

[Hemnon]

''eh.. sure'' she replied and got up in a flash.
''lets go...the other might wake up soon..lets go.'' she said, smilling.

[Alakain]

Let me go take off this heavy armor first. Angellus gestures towards his room. And opens the door and asks Viper "Would you like to come in and sit down?" As he stands there waiting with the door open for her.

[Hemnon]

smirks alittle by his words ''yes, thank you very much...'' she answered with a smile.

[Alakain]

Angellus takes off his guard flak armor, and then takes off his shirt and puts on another shirt, and then he straps a knife under his pant leg, and puts a las pistol on his waist belt. and says to Viper "Are you ready to walk for a little?"

If Viper looked, when Angellus took off his shirt all of his tattoos showed.

[Hemnon]

sitting with crossed legs and looking at angellus while he takes his armour off, gasps alittle when she saw all of his tattoos.

[Alakain]

Angellus stops with his new shirt half on and turns to her asking "Is somthing wrong?" He turns around in a battle ready quickness and is ready to fight whatevers behing him but it's only the sleeping tech priest. "Nothing." he whispers to himself, feeling a little embarrassed because he thought Viper saw somthing behind him and turning back around he meets her gaze...

[Hemnon]

''thats a lot of tattoos...'' she said with big eyes.

''i haven't seen that many tattoos, on one person..'' she continued, still with huge eyes.

[Alakain]

"Oh, thats what the gasp was. I thought maybe you saw somthing behind me, haha." Angellus with no emotion on his face.

"Each tattoo has a meaning, I wouldnt get one unless it did. Some represent somthing that happened during my up-bringing, other represent somthing else." He says as he puts his shirt fully on and waits for a response.

[Hemnon]

''WOW....'' she said, her brain totally empty for anything else to say...

''I have something like that myself....though its not tattoos... she flushed a little again, cuz she has told something that wasn't suposed to be said.

[Alakain]

"Really now, What might be your somthing that is like my tattoos?" He asks curiously. "Lets go on that walk, I don't want to wake the Skitari with our voices." Angellus opens the door for Viper.

[Hemnon]

''ehm could we walk a little first before i answer that??'' she wispered to angellus, and walk over to him.

[Alakain]

"Yah sure."Angellus replies in whisper back as he opens the door for her to exit and then begins walking down the hall, after shutting the door behind himself quietly. Waiting for Viper to answer the question earlier he walks in silence.

[Hemnon]

''....well i have a few piercings...and no not those you put in the ears...'' she answer with a monotone voice, with a little bit of 'lets just get it out'.

[Alakain]

"So piercings eh, how many? Do they represent anyhting about your life, like my tattoos do? Where do you have them at?" Angellus asks all these questions with curiosity.

[Hemnon]

''...2....the first one...here'' she points at her belly-button. ''its got an inscription witch protects me against inner daemons...'' and the second one she doesn't meantion the position of...

[Alakain]

"You said there was two? Can you not remember where the other one is?" Angellus asks in wonderment.

[Hemnon]

she blushes as he asks about number 2. ''ehm...i can tell you that i was drunk when i got it. its got no meaning at all, and its below my waist... she answers with, a little embarrest smile on her lips.

[Alakain]

"Uh-huh, I think I understand." Angellus smiles and waits for her to start the talking again.

[Hemnon]

she stays silent...still blushing.

[Alakain]

"You wanna here about why I got my tattoos?" Angellus eventually asks trying to break the silence.

[Hemnon]

''sure!'' she answered, a little too enthusiastic.

[Alakain]

"Which one do you want to start with?" He asks as he takes off his t-shirt. "Point to the one you wanna here about or whatever and i'll tell you." Angellus says with a smile.

[Hemnon]

''why don't you take me trough them all.'' she asked, curiously

[Alakain]

Angellus stops walking and turns around showing Viper his back. "The hammer is a representation of my home planet, Forge World, the head of the hammer has the words No Fear going across it because i try to have zero fear. The angel wings coming around from behind it, I got those added when my last group gave me the name Archangel." He pauses and then turns around to see what she thinks.

[Hemnon]

as she sees the hammer her face goes completely blank, not even hearing angellus's words....

[Alakain]

Angellus after he turns around sees Vipers blank expression and asks "You okay Viper? Hello?" Angellus shakes her a little at the shoulders. Huge looks of concern all over his face.

[Hemnon]

returning back to reallity, she shakes her head and says Woeh... memory flash...i need to sit down a minute.. she says with a shaken voice, and sits down.

[Alakain]

"It's okay i'm here. Heres some water." Angellus takes his water flask off his hip and hands it to her when she sits down.

[Hemnon]

she waves the bottle away.
no thanks... do you by any chance come from Tanair 5?? she asked him, with a rather omenous voice.

[Alakain]

Angellus puts the canteen back on his hip. He looks confused, and after a second hes speaks "Yah, I am...But how did you know that?" And by now he looks completley confused and then he sits down across from her. "How do you know that?" he repeats to himself. and eventually he asks her, "Did someone by the name Raithian send you to follow me? Is that why you've been so nice to me, so you could get close and stay there liek he instructed?"

[Hemnon]

N-No, I..I was a little girl...on tanair 5's orbiting station...my...my mother... she trails off on the last word, tears glissening in her eyes from teh memory.

I have no memory of my family or.. ANYTHING from birth to 10 years old.... and i have no idea of what happened...what happened on that station?? do you know anything? she asked in a tear sobbing voice.

[Alakain]

Angellus shakes his head.No, I heard only rumors and you know how rumors are, with their over exagerations." He looks upset as well. Angellus gets up, walks over to her and pulls Viper up to her feet by her hands, and gives her a nice, caring, muscular hug.

[Hemnon]

she slowly begins to go from sobbing, to crying...

[Alakain]

Angellus gets up, walks over to her and pulls Viper up to her feet by her hands, and gives her a nice, caring, muscular hug. After a few seconds he releases the embrace and wipes her tears away, ignoring the soul stinging feeling.

[Hemnon]

thanks... she says, still sobbing, and holds him a little tighter...

[Alakain]

Angellus stands there holding Viper in an embrace, and will let go when she releases. He is still forcing back the soul-stinging feeling and every now and then he wipes away her tears. He's asking himself one question in his head and it's What am I doing? I'm never this friendly and I don't show compassion to anyone?

[Hemnon]

with the comforting hug from angellus, viper stops sobbing alltoghter. who is this 'Raithian' you meantioned she asked him, sweeping the rest of the tears away, and sits down yet again.

[Alakain]

Seeing that she obviously knows nothing about the guy Angellus just waves the matter aside and says "Don't worry about it."

[Hemnon]

oki...? she answered in a questionable tone...
shall we continue a little further before my next freakout?? she asks in a teasing tone.

[Alakain]

Angellus will answer with only a couple words and they will be said quietly. "My father." He's staring off down the hallway as if hes somewhere else.
"I hate my parents but yet at the same time I miss them.
My dad when I was Six was already teaching me things to get me ready for the Imperial Guard. While my mother at the same time was trying to force me into being a tech-priest.
I didnt want either so I ran away from home when I was Ten then. Surviving on the streets I took my families heirloom along with me for the journey, the shotgun I carry. It's a one of a kind, and it's saved my life countless times. I travled all over that planet not knowing where I was going when a very experienced group of mercenaries took me onto their group about at that time I was Fourteen and yah..." Angellus trails off as he's imagining his past and picturing the many times he almost died and every time he came through. Especially the time that he was at the brink of death. Angellus remains staring off into space after finished speaking...

[Hemnon]

at least you HAD a childhood... i never did, or at least i can't remember it... she replies with a sad tone.

Can't remember family, friends....nothing at all.... its not good for ones sanity.... im just glad im alive. she said in a fully controlled voice.

wouldn't you rather Remember your childhood than loose the whole memory about it?? she walks a little closer to him, ever so slowly, untill she is right infront of him and looks up at his face. waiting for an answer. she slowly bents towards him and stretches up on her toes, awaiting his move.

[Alakain]

To answer Viper, Angellus says "I would rather not have known my parents, with them trying to force me into two differnt systems which neither of them I wanted to have any part in. I'ts funny how we have two complete opposite life stories and yet both want the others story as their own." Angellus laughs, and looks at her weird, "Are you trying to get taller than me? It isn't going to work." Angellus smiles afterwards and pushing the soul-stinging feeling back looks into her eyes, smiling all the while.

[Hemnon]

well... if your...lips won't come to me, mine comes to yours... she says with a smirk, and gets up on her tiptoes and places her hands, gently around his neck. she moves her mouth closer to his, and stops a few inches from his... awaiting him to acknowledge her.

a sweet scent of strawberries, and mint apears with each of her breaths....

[Alakain]

He leans in and kisses Viper on the cheek, and then taking a couple steps back, he smiles at her. Making a taunting gesture he brings his hands up and makes the bring-it-on gesture, with his fingers together bending back and forth towards his chest. laughing a couple times, he turns to walk back to turn the corner back towards the bathroom and rooms.

[Hemnon]

feeling very rejected she rans acter him grabs him by the arm to stop him from walking futher. no more tricks.... she said walks around to his face, grabs it with both her hands, and kisses him on the lips...with alot of passion.

[Alakain]

He lets Viper kiss his lips, not kissing back. waiting for her reaction he leans back up to his full height and smiles at her.

[Hemnon]

since he doesnt kiss her, she fells very rejected. why?? she ask, with a crushed mood...close to sobbing.

what is it that is so bad that you don't even want to kiss me back?? her eyes start to get glissening as she looks into his eyes... searching for answers.

[Alakain]

As she looks into his eyes she sees nothing. No answers, and no care for anything, there is somthing about his eyes that are scary as she looks into his deep, but yet bright Silver eyes. She sees no mercy and a very small hint of wanting the kiss. He looks upset now and will lean down once again and kiss her on the cheek and when he's back up standing tall he tells her "Nows not the time...or place." holding her hand when he says that he releases it and begins to walk past her towards the group living area.

[Hemnon]

OH!? she says wondering...and follows him back to the the rooms, taking her mask on, ON the way there.

[Alakain]

"Did you get enough sleep last night? I didn't I had to many nightmares, It's alright i'm used to them. How were you last night?" Angellus pleased with the big OH! he got asks the questions with a bit of a smile, except for where he mentioned his nightmares then his lips turned into a frown.

[Hemnon]

enough sleep?? yes...nightmares? no.. not THIS night anyway...helps to get rid of my armour and get my body free air. sleeping in a REAL bed allso ads to it.... she answered, without sounding ashamed or anything.

[Alakain]

Angellus smirks a little, "Say, ya wanna give me some company for an hour or two before everyone has to wake up. Theres gotta be a room available, maybe that one over there where no one was told to go. What do you say?" Smiling now. While talking he walked over to her from across the hall, putting his right hand past her head he leans against the wall, his lips are in kissing range.

[Hemnon]

...sure...she answers, with a tingly feeling in her stomach, and follows him into the room.

[Alakain]

He opens the door to let her in. "Ya want some water?" Attepting to hand the container to her. He goes and sits on the bed, inviting her to sit next to him.
"So what happened back there when you saw my tattoo? You totally zoned out or somthing." He askes Viper with a concerned look.

[Hemnon]

as i said... memory flash, i heard my moms voice, and saw myself as a little kid...runnning around on the station she replies, and waves the water away...
ehm.. i have no need for water... only once week or something like that, am i in need of water...i've got an enviromental suit on- as she meantions the envirosuit she undresses the hardened body glove to show the envirosuit to him. -it harvests all the sweat..and other fluids, and makes water rations out of it...so no thanks she said, with an enthusiastic voice.

after equiping the body glove yet agin she sits next to him.

[Alakain]

Angellus says "Alright, more water for me then." Tossing the container on the bed and waits to see what Viper does next or says.

[Hemnon]

she takes her mask off, and slides closer to him and waits for his reaction.

[Alakain]

Putting his arm around her waist he pulls her in even closer, and whispers to her "Now this is a good place." Leaning in he kisses Viper on the cheek and waits to see what her next move is.

[Hemnon]

as he kisses her she blush scarlet.

is it allso the time?? she asked, after his kiss.

and slowly leaning back and lies down on the bed, with her feets still touching the floor.

[Alakain]

Angellus smiles and gets up so that hes above her and says "Yah it's also a good time too." Leaning down he kisses her on the lips long and passionatley, pulling up he's smiling down at her waiting to see what she wants next.

[Hemnon]

she grabs him around his neck, and pulls him down and kisses him allmost lustfully. she keeps him there untill he either ajusts his position or moves away.

[Alakain]

He keeps kissing her, and will roll with her so that she is on the top now. He keeps kissing her until she changes postion or does somthing else.

[Hemnon]

as it gets more and more intimate, she starts gasping a little... because of the whole first time kissing experince.

she tries a little french kissing, but only hesitantly, to see if he is willing.

[Alakain]

He's willing and will continue with her any way she wants, except for anything that involves no clothes. Continueing for another hour or so, meeting up with the group afterwards

[Hemnon]

before they get al the way back to the rest of the group, viper stops angellus and asks i think a bath more wouldn't hurt... what about you? she winks at him as she asks.

[Alakain]

Angellus smiles, "Yah i cant be walking around with my pants ballooning out. A bath would be nice, lets go." Grabbing her hand to hold it and waiting for her to start off towards the bathroom.

[Hemnon]

she follows him willingly, and gives him a kiss on the cheek as they stops infront of the bathroom door. shall we?? she asks, gesturing to the door

[Alakain]

"After you."Angellus says while smiling and holding the door open for her to enter first.

[Hemnon]

she answers him with a coy smile, and enter the bathroom.

she goes to the toilet it self and uses is as a stool, and waits for angellus to do something.

[Alakain]

"Maybe we should conserve water and bath together?" Angellus asks after shutting the door. Looking at her curiously he also asks "What are you sittin down there for?" Angellus goes over, grabbing her hands helps her up into his embrace and tries to give her a passionate kiss.

[Hemnon]

she surrender to his kissing and gives him just as much back in it.

she breaks the contact of their lips, unwillingly, to answer his question. conserve water?? well.. we ARE here to help.. so.. ehh..sure she said in a suspicious yet willing voice and steps a short step away from him and starts taking of the hardened body glove.

she peeps towards him 2 or 3 times while she undresses the first combat layer.

[Alakain]

Seeing her peep up at him a couple of times he asks "Would you rather me promise not to look again, cuz if you are worried about me seeing your body then i can sit in the tub with my eyes closed if that IS what you desire." As he takes off his shirt, all of his tattoos showing again, and beginning to undo his pants.

[Hemnon]

...ehh i was only looking at you...your tattoos... so many.. she says with awe in her voice not the leat bit shy about him looking at her...well at least not yet...

[Alakain]

"Okay then. I won't promise like last time." Angellus is fully naked now and his muscular form is starting the bath tub.

[Hemnon]

she hesitates a little with the envirosuit, taking it off down to her waist, and then asks so..what do you think of my charm?? she asked, figging a little with the piercing, and looks down at it mainwhile..

[Alakain]

He turns and his head from the tub after hearing her voice, and looks her up and down. Then finally looking to where her belly button piercing is, he smiles and says "I think its pretty. But almost anything would look pretty on you." Smiling after he says those words he stops the water as the tub is now full.

[Hemnon]

she smiles a little and takes the piercing out and places it on the little table next to the toilet.

as she takes the rest of the suit off, she looks at angellus, trying to see what he thinks of her 'body'(angellus can now see piercing nr. 2).

she makes a spin before she heads to the tub, allowing him to see all of her.

[Alakain]

Wow, your gorgeus. Your soo beautiful. Ahh... so thats where number Two is. He smiles and walks over to her to give her another nice passionate kiss and a hug. Looking her over,"Wow your beautiful." He repeats

[Hemnon]

as he kisses her she leans her body against his with her arms resting over his shoulders, hugging him back.
and i can see that its no butterknife you carry around yourself she giggles as she eyes it. she walks towards to bathtube holding his hand all the way.

[Alakain]

He smiles at her comment, and waits to let her get into the tub first. Saying as she is getting in the tub "We should take a closer look at that second piercing before we leave?" Saying it with an open ended style so she can speak on the matter. And then when shes in the tub and comfortable he gets in.

[Hemnon]

as she gets into the tub she tries,teasingly, to pull him with her. well.. ive allready looked at it when i bought it, though i can't remember getting it... she answers his question with a shy, yet on-going smile.

[Alakain]

"Maybe I can take a closer look while you still have it in?" He asks with a smile. Allowing her to pull him almost into the tub, and then makes it so she cant and then carefully gets in. waiting for her answer.

[Hemnon]

go ahead if you wish... she blushingly accepts his question, and sits on the edge of the bathtub so he can se it.

[Alakain]

Angellus moves forward and gets a closer look, after a second he starts getting intimate with the piercing and its attached area.

[Hemnon]

as he begins, she starts moaning, and grabs his head so he can't move away....after a little time, she is 'done' with teh moaning and all that and slips exausted down into the bathtub with scarlet cheeks.

[Alakain]

Angellus stays close with her body and starts kissing her lips, repeatedly. Grabbing some soap he starts soaping her chest, when he went to get the soap he had to stop kissing so he tells her "your piercing is very nice." And then turns to face her again is when his hands started soaping.

[Hemnon]

thanks... hehe, if you ever want to 'admire' it again, feel free to ask

could i admire your tattoos at a later time?? she eyes a very specific one, her face filled with longing. she enjoys the soaping and return the favor and soaps his 'entire' body.

[Alakain]

Angellus asks Viper "Can you stand up so I can finish soaping your body?"

[Hemnon]

her only answer is a giggle.

she gets up makes enough room between her arms and legs so he can get to every spot.

so.. are you enjoying yourself? she then asks him, in a converastional voice.

[Alakain]

"Yes, are you?" he replies in the same type of conversationsl tone and then starts at her thighs and soaps up. Lingering a couple of minutes at the piercing from earlier, examining it closley now with his hands. and then continueing up the body and when he gets to her mouth he kisses her deeply a few times.

[Hemnon]

she injoys his carress so much she starts gasping and needs to grip the bathtub, for not to fall.

when she have had 'enough' and he continues soaping her, she is able to answer ye-yes i di-did.. she says, still gasping.

as he kiss's her she slowly lowers herself into the warm water postitions her self so she leans against his chest with both his legs on either side of her.

she then kiss's his neck and continues up his jaw to his mouth.

[Alakain]

He lets her kiss him, kissing her back whenever she's at his lips. Letting her relax he let's her sit there against his muscular body until she wants to do somthing else or begins to leave, kissing her on the neck every once in a while, and rubbing the sides of her body and somtimes moving down her body rubbing her thighs, comforting her that way and also any other way she wanted.

[Hemnon]

mmm..i could sit here forever.. she sighed happy.

ehm... there is no need to tell the others about 'us' is there?? she asks, with the 'i-hope-we-don't-need-to' voice.

she stays where she is, leaned against his chest, and takes his hands and drags them unto her lap where she keeps them in her own hands.

[Alakain]

"I don't see why we have to. So I guess not." Angellus lets her have his hands and kisses her softly on the neck. "Well what IS 'US' exactly, just curious as to what you are thinking?" He says with a smile waiting for her reply.

[Hemnon]

well...can i use a metaphor?? she asks with a grin, and positioning herself so she sits a little more comfortable.

[Alakain]

"Yah sure you can." He replies, rubbing her sides and down to her thighs exactly like before.

[Hemnon]

after the caress and a short breathing pause, she says well you are like my privat 'jeweler', and im the costumer getting my 'jewels' priced... with a kiss on both his cheeks, and one big one on his mouth, to inhale his scent.

[Alakain]

Taking the kisses, he kisses her back. Recieving his mint smell and taste from his mouth. Angellus, when she goes to pull away, pulls her back in for more kissing. Rubbing and grabbing her rear while kissing he says inbetween kisses "Nice metaphor."

[Hemnon]

she laughs a little and then she moves to the other side of the tub.

she then leans down into it, and invites him closer to her with the index finger. she makes room for him, by keeping both legs to the sides of the tub, waiting for him.

[Alakain]

Angellus moves over to the area she opened up for him rubbing his hand up her leg on his way there. Kissing her on the lips before taking his place next to her.

[Hemnon]

in a rush of exitement she grabs him around the waist, in and atempts to pull him on top of her, and kisses him with all the passion she can muster.

[Alakain]

"Whoa!" He says with surprise by the sudden pull and energy of Viper. Catching himself from falling right on her by the sides of the tub. Kissing her back with just as much passion. After a couple of seconds he rests his body on her submerged body kissing her all the while.

[Hemnon]

after lying there in 5 minutes or so, viper says:

shall we go and get dressed?? her tone is gentle and filled with warm feelings.

[Alakain]

"I guess we could go get dressed. We've been in this tub for a good Forty-Five minutes. What do YOU want to do?" Angellus asks Viper in a warm hearted tone.

[Hemnon]

well that depends... she says, and wraps her legs and arms around him and kisses him yet again.

[Alakain]

"I'll leave you too make the choice." He laughs and kisses her again. "What are you choosing?" He asks with a tone of saying i'm not going to pick, its her descision.

[Hemnon]

being so comfortable where she is, she dunno what to answer.

hmm...how about we stay a little longer and then we go see if the rest of the group is awake..? she said, and swaped place with him so he was on the buttom. and cuddles herself against angellus's chest.

[Alakain]

"Ahh...Your so beautiful." As he says that he raps his arms around her holding her close, kissing her on the neck and then releasing her. "Yah sure we can stay longer, no complaints here." He smiles and laughs.

[Hemnon]

viper laughs a little, and gives him a love-filled hug, and kiss his cheek.

could i get another 'massage' before we go and get dressed?? she asked with a smile.

[Alakain]

Angellus smiles and replies with, "I'd be glad to, anytime." This time though he starts at the shoulders then goes down the chest to the sides and down her 'thighs'.
