"I have a few aces up my sleeve"
He seemed to joke as the last of the darkness faded away, leaving the place entirely undisturbed. It was hard to tell if what he had done was real or simply a trick. Either way he seemed pleased in its success.
"So shall we go on?"

-
"Yes. Our next objective is the main square. We'll be meeting up with a group of loyalists up ahead." [b]He began to move toward the hole, looking around for any more Splicer activity[/b]
-
"The loyalist? What are they? Someone trying to restore this place?" Chesh followed along looking for more splicers with the man leading the way.
-
"Sort of. They are the last remaining people who are loyal to Andrew Ryan's cause, and seek to restore this place to what it was meant to be."
-
"So there was a time before this place was crawling with, well, more things to play with I guess." Bringing someone from a mad land into a place wracked with insanity clearly made him almost feel at home only it seemed more industrial than his natural habitat.
-
"That is correct. Seeing as though you came from a place of chaos, it shouldn't be too hard to understand." [b]He quickly messaged the loyalists via a small communication device, and proceeded to look around again[/b]
-
"Hmm, is there something wrong?" Chesh began Looking the same directions as the man seeing if there was something worth keeping an eye on.
-
"Maybe. I'm not quite sure." [b]He waited, as if he was sensing the movements in the air[/b]
-
Chesh protracted his claws in case what he was talking about was more enemies.
-
[spoiler]Sorry for not responding[/spoiler] [b]He heard something, like metal crawling on metal. There was some clatter and a strange smell. Whatever it was, it was stalking them.[/b] "Be ready to bolt when I say."

-
[b]There was a metallic shriek, and another wall exploded outward[/b] "Run"
-
Chesh obeyed and began running as fast as he could only taking a quick glance at what made the crashing sound.
-
[b]He didn't see anything[/b] "Get to the train station! The bulkhead is down the next corridor."
-
Chesh made for the corridor as fast as he could making quick teleportation jumps to keep up with the pace. "What are we running from?"
-
"Something that shouldn't be, designed by the Splicers to kill anyone and everyone else. Now hurry, we need to get to the control room and lockdown the city. Otherwise they're won't be any city left."
-
"Fair enough, lead the way"
-
[b]They kept running, eventually reaching a bulkhead door. He opened the door, and quickly walked through. There was one metallic shriek and the door was slammed shut.[/b]

Edited by ALIAS-F4LS: 7/25/2017 12:46:52 AMChesh waited till the noise died down from inside the bulkhead door and put his ear to it. "And I thought tea parties were dangerous" He said with a surprisingly straight face.
-
"Everything's dangerous here. Now, the train station is just up ahead. We'll ride it to center of the city and seize control away from the Splicers."
-
"Hmm maybe I should use a gun..." He thought out loud. He pulled out a deck of metal cards instead, holding then at the ready. "The should still do the trick"
-
"Most definitely." [b]They moved away from the bulkhead, into a hallway, and up a set of stairs. From there, he could see an idle train inside the station. Of course, it was surrounded by Splicers[/b]
