Kiss of Death

[Cifero Windtail]

Rick gets off of Lucinda. "Sorry about that, but I wasn't just going to let it kill you two, and this was all I could think of at the time..."

Rick drew The Sword and was about to attack the manticore when he realized that it was glowing yellow. There was also a strange bag at his feet.

"Oh," he murmured.

The feline scooped up the small bag and, reaching inside, took out what looked like a beetle.
"Leave this to me!" he said.
He let go of the beetle, which crawled right towards the manticore. Upon contact , the manticore froze and disappeared, leaving only whatever weapons were thrown at it.

[Aldrea945]

(Okay, Cif, I'll let the Manticore fly, but what's with the beetle?  I get the reference, but I'll say it once: It must have an origin.  This attack and solution comes out of nowhere, goes nowhere, and does nothing.  Please don't do that.  This isn't just you either.  I'd prefer no one did this.  It wastes time and space.  Make it relevant, or make it gone.)
 
Danny looked up, vision still swirling around her.  Her mind was blurry, unable to make out much more than shapes.

[Shadis]

[I like the action, but I agree with Aldrea. Make it a hunter scouting party or something next time  ]
 
*Zack picks up his Knife* "What on earth! Where did that come from?! Is everyone alright?"
 
 

[Aldrea945]

Lucinda shook near a tree, tears running down her cheeks.  "I-is it g-gone?"

[Kaya]

don't you worry about anything Danny... boss decided to retract the order....your safe.. *darkly* for now
 
*alen leaves the room and passes right by Cassandra without a second look. Cassandra quickly hurries into the room and unstraps danny from the table.* Oh god Danny are you ok?! I told you NOT to come back! What the HELL were you thinking?! Come on we havee got to get you out of here......

[Aldrea945]

Danny looked up at her, too disoriented to register her words.  "Who are you?"

[Cifero Windtail]

^ (Oh my freaking god...)

Rick looked over at Zack.
"More proof of my resurector," he said. "It's a bag of capture beetles."

[Shadis]

*Zack runs over to Lucinda.* "Yes, yes, it is gone. Rick manages to defeat it with a... a Beetle? I don't know. But we can afford a five minute break. Just rest up dear." *Zack cradles Lucinda, ignoring his own wounds*
 
*Kastor stares at Cassandra in horror.* "Your going to escape?! Theirs no escaping here. They will catch you, and then you will share a bed with Danny!"

"Technically," Ryan started as he moved closer to the beetle's and examined them closely, "That's a bag of scarabs, and they fit the god Anubis more then Sphinx... now if it was a book of riddles, and the first one having the answer of 'then you will kill me with a sword' it would be sphinx."

[Kaya]

Danny... its me.. Cassandra.... *she turns to Kastor worried...* we-we can't now.. she..she looks sick...

Alenstrides into the room* "that your right Cassandra, she is sick. The build up of toxins in her body is getting to be too much. Now you and Kastor get going and please, if you see Fukey, tell her I need her up here. I don't carewether boss said to hold off. I am not going to let her die like this. Now run along. I don't want to have to take away your food rations for the week."
*he shoves them out of the room and slams the door locking it*

[Aldrea945]

Fukey walked in a second door, a backpack of her rations with her.  "I figured we'd need this for later."  She set it near the IV's, taking out a blanket.  "I'll put this under her.  It'll help keep her comfortable."

[Kaya]

*Alen nods* good, let's get started... we got to get done before they get here...

[Aldrea945]

She had Danny lay on the blanket, smoothing her hair.  Fukey kissed her forehead.  "Don't worry Danny.  I'll return your favor..." She started inserting the IV's, putting her under again.

[Kaya]

*as soon as danny goes under alen and fukey start the procdure and remobe large damaged tissues and they replace th e damaged mucles.*

"Technically," Ryan started as he moved closer to the beetle's and examined them closely, "That's a bag of scarabs, and they fit the god Anubis more then Sphinx... now if it was a book of riddles, and the first one having the answer of 'then you will kill me with a sword' it would be sphinx."

Rick sighed, pinched the bridge of his nose, and turned to Ryan.
"Again, Ryan, I must mention that the person who resurrected me wa not a sphinx, but a demigod hero NAMED Sphinx," he said. "Also, he got a bag of capture beetles from the god Anubis back in the old days of Egypt when Set was trying to take over the world. These beetles capture monsters."
