Golden Age: Revival

R"Get him in the head. It's the only way to make sure."

*But Schwarz had apparently decided that the standoff was too risky for him, as he quickly retreated into some bushes.*

E"He could be waiting to fire from under cover. Be careful."
==============================================
N"Do you even know what direction civilization is IN?"

Allina: <Dude! We're at the center of Australia. There's civilization in every direction. Anyway, we're in some National Park. The closest city should be Alice Springs which is...>

*She lands back down.*

Allina: <Which is like two hundred miles north...>

*She points around, humming, for a few seconds.*

Allina: <No, northeast. On the good side of things, Ayers Rock has many springs so we shouldn't die from thirst. Though I'm sure you all knew that already.>

Luna was about to fire, but stopped, "Who are you? What do you want?"
She wasn't about to just blast somebody in the head before knowing what they were even trying to do.

Mimiru:<I'm not drinking from some spring. For all we know there could be a big monster in there or something.>

"Something like a spider?"

Mimiru:<Shut up!>

=====================================================

"I think he wants to kill us. Or Unwashed Weird. They seem to know each other."

R"He mentioned something about being hired to kill that guy who got murdered in our hotel room, but at the pyramid, he said he renegotiated his contract & now he was gonna kill us all."

*He notices Euryale glaring at him.*

R"What? I think we're way past the point of trying not to look weird, here."

E"I don't get it, why does he want to kill us?"

R"I don't know! Maybe we should ask Thiera? But oh NO, all of you have sand in your vaginas every time I suggest that. You'd think it was not only your time of the month, but she CAUSED it."

*As Euryale is about to retort, her phone rings, & she starts pressing random buttons until it eventually picks up & Nero's voice comes out.*

{Did you forget about us, or something?}
================================================
N"Hold on. I'll call Euryale."

*He digs out his phone & starts dialing.*

"Technology is amazing, isn't it? All that salt water and it still works fine."

Allina: <We should go to Alice Springs. If we think positive, we won't die as quickly!>

Luna squeezed the trigger and blew away some dirt at the guys feet, then raised her aim to his head.
"I certainly can't rely on you guys, can I? And this guy doesn't seem to speak English"

OOC: It's not like he's hidden in the bushes, or anything.

OOC
Fuck, I didn't know who you were talking about when you said "Schwarz". You should have introduced him.

OOC: No one your character has just been introduced to has the first name Schwarz.

R"What do you want us to do? We tried to kill him! Look, the only weakness to a vampire is that they lose most of their powers during the day. But as you can see, he still had enough to keep up with a moving car."

"Would that magic spear do something to him?"

OOC
Hurrp Durrp Harley, the vampire was called "Schwarz" when he ran away into the bushes.

OOC: You're catching up.

OOC
Since when have vampires been super fast anyway? This is retarded.

OOC: Because change is bad.

Even though super speed is a somewhat common characteristic of vampires.

OOC: You want retarded? Try 99% of the characteristics I threw away. Fuck you guys, timeskip.

*Everyone is back in the town.*

N"Okay. So. It basically goes like this. Thiera dedicated some stone head of Medusa to our school. But it turned out it was alive. So we killed it. And that turned Euryale human--she's one of Medusa's sisters, I forgot to mention that--so then we found Roatha wandering the outback. He was apparently kidnapped by the British Historical Society, which we think might be a front for the mob. Or aliens. We're not really sure, we just know they're bad news. Allina & I saw a Hawaiian volcano goddess kidnapped by them, then we were in South America, rescuing Euryale's OTHER sister, who we heard about from Thiera. Then some guy showed up out of nowhere & told us we could teleport through pyramids & apparently Ayers Rock. Somewhere along the line, Schwarz was hired by somebody to kill us. And that's what happened."

*Roatha looks from Nero to Luna & back.*

R"I was THERE & I don't believe you, that was such a retarded explanation. But...you know, something occurs to me."

N"What?"

R"How could Schwarz be a vampire? The magic to turn a corpse into the walking dead must have been lost for centuries. And it's not some power you can unconsciously tap into, like elemental control. This is highly advanced stuff."

Allina: <Seventeen kinds of interesting.>

*She yawns.*

Allina: <Why are we filling in a stranger?>

Mimiru:<I could've ripped that vampires head off, but you two had to go and get shot.>

*When saying "two" she points at Roatha and then Nero.*

"Y...wha...." Luna couldn't think what to ask first, then she decided, "You people expect me to believe this crap story?"
She was thinking of calling the cops or somebody to check them out.

R"You saw the guy keeping up with a moving vehicle. What more proof do you need? Do I have to shoot a lightning bolt?"

"I might need a bit more proof than that" Luna sighed and shook her head, "I mean... put yourself in my shoes, a bunch of randoms appear and tell me a bunch of crap about monsters and stuff... and that's after somebody shot out my tyre trying to get you!"

Allina: <We should also know we're all superheroes. Except Nero. He cheats.>

*Allina closes her eyes and leans forward. Two small tufts of light feathers grow on her back.*

Allina: <I'm having some trouble mastering this, but I think you get the idea.>

R"You need more proof than me shooting a lightning bolt? In my day, when you shot lightning bolts, people respected you."

N"Didn't you rob Merlin?"

R"Hey, I gave that stuff back after I found out he was dead!"

E"Well, it's no problem of ours if she doesn't want to believe us. All I know is, we need to get an apartment, quickly. I will not have Thiera taking custody of my sister."
