As he did, he picked up a light source. In the centre of this dome shaped room, 20ft in diameter and 10 feet hight, was a lit brazier. It burned brightly, which gave a soft glow to the natural darkness.
Then, Zane saw the bodies.
They were scattered around, Limp as posts. There were five of them, all hooded men. Zane noticed that each of them wore a different pair of pants as well, each one more exuberant then the last.

-
[i]Zane checked his radar, and seeing nothing on the radar he entered the room. He slowly walked over to one of the body's, removing the hood.[/i]
-
He looked down on an older looking face. There were lanky hairs sprawled down the side of the man’s face and he looked almost skeletal as if he had been starved. However as Zane observed further...he saw that the figure was breathing. He wasn’t dead. And as he investigated further he saw that none of the five men were. They were all unconscious...
-
[i]He lowered the settings on his gauntlet and placed it in the man's chest.[/i] "Let's see if this wakes you up." [i]He turned on his taser, delivering a small shock to the man.[/i]
-
The shock made the man’s body recoil violently for a second, and his eyes shot open. With a look of confusion the man looked at Zane, then quickly to his right, where a six shooter lay. Without hesitating he lunged for the revolver.
-
[i]He cocked the hammer back on his .44 and fired a shot at the man's weapon.[/i] "Don't be irrational now, I ain't here to kill you."
-
The blast of the .44 bent and dented the revolver and made it flip and fly away. The man looked back at Zane, a feral look in his weak old eyes. He suddenly lunged towards Zane’s throat with his bare hands, salving spewing from the side of his mouth as he let out a guttural yell.
-
[i]Zane sidesteped the man's lunge and shoved him away, sighing heavily[/i] "Boy, calm the hell down. Try thinking for once!"
-
The man had gotten to his feet, but stumbled around towards the brazier. He stopped himself on the side of the hot metal and Zane heard the sizzling of his skin, but the man didn’t even seem to notice it as he turned back towards Zane, running towards him with his hands outstretched, full with the intent to kill.
-
"God damn it...." [i]His gunblade formed in his hands as the man charged at him. The man then ran straight I to it, the blade piercing his skull.[/i]
-
The man went limp on Zane’s blade as his face split in two, becoming Unrecognizable as its became a waterfall of red crimson which poured down Zane’s blade and right hand. There was a spurt of blood at the back of the figures neck at that moment as well.
-
[i]He let out a sigh of disgust as he flicked his blade out the man's skull, the body falling to the ground as he wiped the blood off his blade.[/i] "Idiot...."

Edited by Inflatablepants: 12/28/2017 5:21:36 PMThe other bodies remained limp on the ground, unmoving. They didn’t even seem to stir. Whatever knocked them out didn’t aim to kill, Clearly. As Zane looked around he saw a door ahead of him, at the other side of the room. It was large, bronze and not very welcoming.
-
[i]He stepped over the bodies as he approached the door, placing a hand on the cool frame. He then pushed it, seeing if it would open.[/i]
-
It was actually a pull door, so Zane walked into it. ...kidding. He opened the door with ease, but it [i]creaked![/i] as the old hinges seemed to be rusted. As he peered through, he saw a lit hallway, similar to that of what he had seen at the beggining. In this hall there were more limp bodies, three to be exact. However there were small amounts of blood coming from their skulls and shoulders. Whoever was here seemed to use blunt force to knock them out, however all three men were still alive.
-
"This was recent...I can't be too far behind." [i]He walked down the hall, his gunblade resting at his side.[/i]
-
As he did, he began to hear a voice. He couldn’t understand it just yet but as he moved closer to the door ahead of him he was able to make the words out. It sounded like two people, a man and a woman. “Like...really! How did we get ourselves into this?” The man said. “Well, I initially warmed you of traps when we came in.” The woman would respond with. “Okay, ya, sure. But you’d think that we would’ve been able to spot...THIS!” “I can play some music, if you’d like.” “May as well...seems like we’re Gunna be here until all these Hannibal lectors wake up.” Zane would then hear some music. It was...old fashioned, to say the least. From the era of the baby boom. [i]Java Jive by the Ink Spots[/i] echoed down the halls as Zane was a few feet away from the door.
-
[i]He raised his .44 as he moved against the door. He glanced inside, ready to burst inside if necessary.[/i]
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 12/30/2017 12:01:20 AMSuddenly, the music cut out. “What? Dani what’s the-“ Suddenly the man interrupted himself it seemed, and went quiet. The room was dim, Zane could only see that much. He would have to enter if he wanted to look around it completely.
-
[i]He backed away from the door, entering stealth as he put away his weapons. He'd wait a few seconds, just in case he was heard.[/i]
-
The other side of the door was quiet, not a peep was made.
-
[i]Zane silently sighed, his footsteps were clearly heard. He remained in stealth as he walked quietly up the door, opening it from the very end.[/i]

Edited by Inflatablepants: 12/30/2017 12:01:08 AMAs he walked in, he would see that this room was large. The centre floor was rectangular In shape, being 100ft wide from where Zane stood and 80ft in length. There was a stair case on the right side of the room which lead up to a walkway. There were eight doors on this walkway, likely leading into different rooms and the like. In the centre there was a brazier, lit and flaming. There were two more in the room, one to the left of the lit one, and one to the right of it. Past the brazier was another set of double bronze doors. Oh, there was also the person hanging from the ceiling. It seemed that they were trapped by some net trap that entangled them into an awkward position, where their arms were in no place to be moved around. The man dangled ten feet in the air, and a rope was strung from the top of the net to the balcony and was locked in place by the mechanism there. The figure in the net was well armed. He had two fancy looking swords on his back, straps of magazines on his legs and chest, as well as what looked to be some kind of steel arm that coated his left arm. The net was twirling in the air, so that his face was away from Zane. Zane would then hear him whisper. “Dani...have they entered?” He asked. There wasn’t another woman in the room from what Zane saw, however. “I don’t know. I see as much as you do.” A woman suddenly spoke from the same source. “Be quiet...maybe you won’t get us killed.” “Well fine...be that way.”
-
[i]Zane activated his thermal vision, moving silently around the room. His eyes scanning, looking for the woman.[/i]
-
He only picked up the one source now. The net span on the rope, slowly so that the man’s face was making its way towards the door where Zane stood.
-
[i]He took out his dagger and threw it at the rope, then moved around the room.[/i]
