TEAM 6

[godsoftartarus]

Mitsuru, Sebastian, Carver, Thomas

[bufudynes]

[With a slight thud Mitsuru suddenly found herself somewhere that was most definitely not the Dorm. In fact it wasn't anywhere that she was familiar with, though she could hazard a guess that it was inside of the Labyrinth. She brushed her skirt off and looked around trying to take in her surroundings.]

What is going on here?

[reformedrake]

[He's carrying a cardboard box when brought here. Wherever here is. The walls aren't closing in, not yet, but he staggers a little as he tries to get used to this. Whatever this is. The box tumbled from his arms when he landed unceremoniously, sending a few candles to the ground. He notices Mitsuru before standing up, still a little dazed and very confused.]

I haven't the faintest idea. Where are we?

[prodigalvampire]

[Thomas turns a corner in his newly found salon and then...is...surrounded by...wait, what? Walls, and Mitsuru, and two guys in armor.]

Well, now I just feel under-dressed. [In his jeans and t-shirt, he and Mitsuru probably are.]

[bufudynes]

[Mitsuru looks from each man to the other, taking each one in. Sebastian, Thomas, and someone she's only seen on the network. She's not positive what his name is, but she recognizes his face at least. She'd been out tonight so she had her evoker and sword strapped to her belt.]

My best guess is that we are in the Labyrinth, Sebastian-san. How we came to be here...I have no idea.

[reformedrake]

[Carver. Mitsuru. And someone he doesn't know. Could be worse, he supposes but won't say out loud. He takes inventory of himself and his surroundings and tries to think clearly. Which isn't very easy at the best of times, and the bump on his head didn't help matters. He checks and lets out a small sigh of relief when his bow appears unscathed.]

Is everyone all right? [Pause.] I suppose the better question is "How do we get out?".

[prodigalvampire]

I must have left my knight costume in my other pants. [He heaved a sigh.] There's a labyrinth here? [That was amazingly brilliant.] And I assume "you have no power over me" isn't going to cut it.

From the look of the place, I'd say we probably walk. [He turned away from them, tapping very briefly into the dismally small power reserves of his demon to enhance his senses a bit. And he listened. There was something nearby, scraping on the stone around a bend up ahead. He didn't consider himself any sort of judge, but it sounded big. Anyone very near him would sense a very slight chill radiating from him.]

And...I don't think we're the only things here.

[bufudynes]

[She's already rolling her eyes at both Carver and Thomas.]

I appear to be fine, simply a bit bruised as well as surprised to have ended up here of all places. [And now she's looking around herself, trying to figure out if it'd be possible for Artemisia to do any scanning with walls as thick as this. She looked to Thomas and raised an eyebrow.]

What do you mean, Thomas-san? [Now to Carver:] I'm afraid I don't have anything of the sort, but it would be a good idea for us to find something that could mark our paths. I'm afraid I don't know your name.

[reformedrake]

I've some jostled candles, if that counts?

[He gets his bow and arrows ready, just in case. No arrows are nocked yet, but he's capable of reaching for one or many should the need arise.]

[prodigalvampire]

[And the scratching sound he'd heard goes silent. His brow creases with concern.] That can't be good.

Just so you know, when the monsters stop making noises, it usually means they're getting ready to bite your heads off. So I suggest [Looks to Carver] not telling the entire Labyrinth we're here anymore, got it? I'm not letting a moron get me killed.

[And he narrows his eyes.] I hear a lot better than humans. Now, if you can swing that thing at something more deadly, you take up rear. [He looks to Sebastian.] I don't know about anything else, but retreating away from the big thing around the corner is my plan. Cover Carver. [Then to Mitsuru.] Are you ready to summon that Persona of yours? I'd bet whatever's down here with us isn't selling cookies.

[bufudynes]

Candles might do some good to make marks with the wax.

[She bowed her head at Carver.] It's nice to meet you, Carver-san.

[She watches what he's doing curiously, well, at least that was one way to leave a mark, although the noise couldn't have been good. She threw a glare at Thomas for his remarks.]

Thomas-san, there is no reason for you to insult anyone right now, it will just cause arguing amongst us which is the last thing we need in this situation. So, kindly, hold your tongue in the future.

[Taking the gun-like Evoker out of it's holster she nodded.] I can provide healing support as well as long range magic.

[reformedrake]

[He's about to answer Mitsuru when Carver clangs the wall with his sword.]

There's always the sword option, I suppose.

[He nocks an arrow at the continuing conversation and the growing quiet of whatever lurks behind the corner. He steps carefully backward, keeping his eyes trained on the corner in case a blood mage, spider, or group of bandits fly down. Knowing Hawke kept you well prepared for such occurrences.]

We can argue as much as we like once we're out of here.
