“Um...” he glanced up at Flint, but when he noticed the kattaca (what an interesting name, the fox reflected) staring back at him, he quickly turned to face the group. More specifically, he turned to face the person who was talking to him: Torsolus. He didn’t really like it when the first thing people noticed was his tails. It typically didn’t end well for him. But this was Flint’s friend from way back. A year was a long time when you haven’t even lived a decade. How lucky they were to find each other here; Tails wished he could meet with a friend. But friends of good people were good. And like he thought earlier, who has time for being mean in a situation like this?

“Yeah.. yes, I do have two,” he stammered. “And that’s my name— Tails!” Just like before, he held his hand out for a handshake. And just like before, he actually held it up. Why did they all have to be so tall? And the room was so cramped with five people in it... there was nowhere to fly unless he wanted to hit someone’s face.

Torsolus heartily returned Tails’ handshake with both his own hands, stooping down so Tails wouldn’t have to reach so high.

“Tails!....You....are SO COOL!! Do those tails move independently? How dextrous are they?? Do—” An important thought came to him a bit late.

“Sorry, I don’t wanna upset you, if you don’t like talking about them, or anything....”

He just about forgot that he and everyone in the room had been tied up and sedated a minute ago.

It’s real special to meet someone else who’s....a little different.

"We can talk later," 3157 said. "Someone put us here, eventually they'll be back for us. We need to be gone before that happens. Does anyone know where we are? Did anybody see what looked like a way out?" Her comm channels were completely dry, there was nobody in range she could pick up. That meant her ship was long gone. She might be in a completely unknown region of the Firmament entirely. Even if they did find a way out, she doubted they were going anywhere. Problems for later, the now was more important. The threat of absorption still loomed, that needed to be dealt with first and foremost.

To his surprise, Torsolus grabbed the fox’s hand with both of his own, and even more surprisingly, complimented him. He called him ‘cool’... to Tails, that was basically the ultimate compliment. Cool was something he strived to be everyday. It was why he always followed his brother’s example and why he followed him around in the first place... he was cool— the peak of it, coolness personified. The fact that someone else thought he was cool, too? Wow. A big grin formed on his face as he was just about to answer Torsolus’ questions and say it was fine when another voice brought up more pressing matters.

Five-Seven was right— they could all talk later. It was more important to get out of this creepy place and avoid whoever runs it. He spoke up, hoping to add something: “There were only a few names on the tablets in front of us, so maybe this is the only hallway of... chambers... We didn’t walk far enough, but maybe there’s an exit at the end of the hallway? Or at least a door leading to one.” He wasn’t too confident it would be a direct exit, but it would be the first step in finding one. It would definitely be better than just waiting around.

Flint watches the fox and Hominid interact, then nodded to TH-3157 “you’re right. We should get a move on before someone realizes we busted out.” He glanced at Tails as the fox explained his idea. “Good idea, puppy. There’s got to be some way in or out. We’ll find it.”

Jade - Female - Human - Tags: Everyone

Jade silently listened to the group, “Yeah, good idea.” She added to Flint’s praise. “But first, we need to find my weapons. I don’t know about you all, but mine are by no means attached to my suit or whatever, and so they’ve been stolen. I’d like to find them so I’m not, you know, useless, defenceless, you choose.” Her visor hid her expression, but her jaw was tight, and her arms were crossed.

Just at that moment, a mechanical, garbled voice sounded around the corner. The voice was...singing something. The melody was reverent and heavy with history, but sung with lighthearted abandon, as by a working person going about his business.

What came AROUND the corner was a...wizard?
It wore long blue robes that covered its whole body; no visible arms. Its face was obscured by a wide-brimmed blue hat with folds falling back from the top. The only facial features were seen through a pair of huge, round goggle-like spectacles, which bore teal, pupiless lenses.

A mechanical arm hung frailly over the top of the creature’s head, carrying....
Hospital bags of clear fluid.

When it saw the party standing there, it froze in place, as though horrified.

“Uhh....Hi there!” Torsolus waved warily.

It gibbered in panic, mashing a panel on the wall, triggering sirens and flashing lights.

3157 swiveled, bringing her blades to bear against the strange figure. Once again, it didn't look particularly angelic or demonic, but that didn't really matter this time. It was carrying what looked like bags of sedative, and that was all she needed to know. This was the thing that brought them here, so it had to go.

The transhuman's boosters fired as she leapt forwards, crossing the room in an instant, blades slashing in a wide arc across her body, the air sizzling in their wake. True, this thing might have some inkling as to where they were and how to get them back, but 3157 wasn't going to take chances with someone that was planning to absorb her.

The creature was no match at all for TH-3157’s sweeping blade attack. It lay crumpled on the floor in a heap of robes, metallic wiring and fluid.

“Y-you killed him...!!” Torsolus shrieked.

From behind, two more creatures which looked like the first grabbed Jade and Tails under the armpits dragged them backwards up the hallway. A third rushed forward and flicked a switch on the wall, throwing up a forcefield between Torsolus, TH-3157 and Flint, and Tails, Jade, and their three captors.

The creature who had thrown the switch was carrying a small clear bag with a knife and a gun inside. It was hysterical, babbling at the first two who were trying to wrangle their captives.

3157 slammed a jet-boosted fist into the forcefield, but the barrier held firm. Her fingers found no purchase on the smooth wall, and she couldn't see any emitter array around the edge. Not even her blades could penetrate. "Help me check this thing," she said to the others, dropping down to the pile of robes at her feet, "Maybe it's got an off switch."

Flint spun around and reached to grab Tails but just missed him. He flared his wings to take off and fly after them, only to slam into the forcefield when he took off. “YEEAGGH” he fell back, “dang it. DANG IT DANG IT DANG IT!” He paced back and forth while Five Seven checked the forcefield, and tried her blades on it. ‘Help me check this thing!’ Flint paused and took a deep breath to calm himself. From where he stood he scanned the forcefield for irregularities. Not seeing any, he walked over and flew up towards the ceiling, checking where the others couldn’t more closely.

Jade was relatively calm, even after they were spotted. They’d just have to hurry now. But then suddenly something grabbed her from behind. She let out a startled yelp, and started kicking to get free, but her kicks were doing nothing as she was pulled backwards out of the room. “H-hey! Let me go!” She snapped. She continued yelling and protesting (as well as kicking out) until she noticed the wizard-like creature in front of her had a small bag with.. yes! HER weapons in it! While the creature was distracted, she reached with her two feet for the bag. Grunting with effort, before she finally managed to grab the bag between her feet and pull it towards herself. She then reached for it. Which turned out to be the hard part. But after a moment she grabbed the bag, and not even wasting time to pull her knife out of said bag, she stabbed behind her.
