The Elevator

[Lokyar Brightmane]

*reads number on side of elevator -the one anoni read- and notes it goes through to reception. He checks another number, this time for elevator control and dials it. Ichi, san, ni, hachi, yon, go, nana, roku.*(or, 13284576)

*rings.*
Operator: Moshi moshi!
Me: Yeah your elevator is going to strange places.
Operator: Ah, ha! An English speaker in our elevator! Isn't it fun?
Me: Uhhh, no.
Operator: We are watching you furries in hidden cameras; have fun and enjoy the ride. We aren't stopping the fun for anything. Sayonara.
*hangs up*

[MrRazot]

damn
*elevator shudders with sudden movement*
i wonder if this elevator is haunted, or just has a nasty AI

[Lokyar Brightmane]

Maybe now would be a good time to mention I can read japanese?

*smiles.*

[MrRazot]

*elevator gives of a klaxon then an apparent warning in japanese*
any idea what it's warning us against?

[Lokyar Brightmane]

Yes. It is warning us against-

*Elevator suddenly shifts direction back into the highspeed drop.*

...That.

Also, do not press any of these buttons.

*points to a ring of buttons, coloured blue, red, brown, yellow, and green. In the centre is a larger button with a picture of an unidentified animal.*

[MrRazot]

what about this orange one?
*presses the orange button*

[Lokyar Brightmane]

*the elevator extends a nozzle, firing a stream of lightning infused fire at the floating Lokyar. He flies backwards into the ring of buttons, somehow missing the middle one. This causes the elevator to become manic as a stream of water starts filling the bottom, but it is then dispersed by small rocks piercing the sides, which are shattered by streams of lightning, which are earthed on the elevator sides by gusts of wind, which feeds another stream of fire, which is put out by the water.*

*Lokyar floats in the middle, spasming and slightly burning by the original stream but untouched by the new arrivals.*

[MrRazot]

umm bugger
*presses the open door button and the doors open poring the contents of the elevator onto a beach*
lol the flip?

[Lokyar Brightmane]

*crashes down as the elevator comes to a sudden stop.* ((I think you missed the part where it shifted back into the 0g drop.))

*lands in the remnants of the water, putting out the flames on his fur, but enhancing the lightning still coursing through his body; he spasms so hard that he does a backflip into the button panel, hitting a more convex button than most, dropping a ball out of the ceiling.*

*The lightning being spent, he noms dazedly on the ball, seeming unaware of his surroundings for the most part.*

[MrRazot]

the water cushioned the fall

[Lokyar Brightmane]

Whuh?

What'd you say?

Someone make the world stop spinning...

[MrRazot]

i like this elevator... its like the TARDIS
*goes back in dragging lokyar behind*

[Lokyar Brightmane]

*doesn't resist, or seem to notice the stones giving him mild abrasions through his fur; he just keeps nomming on the ball.*

[MrRazot]

*watches as the door closes and the elevator auto-fixes its self*
my my... technology these days

[Lokyar Brightmane]

*begins to recover; he stands up while holding his new ball, revealing a blood-matted belly.*

What happened? I remember pain, then pain, then more pain, then a bit of nothing, then now...

*blinks and looks down at the small pool of blood around his front right paw.*

What's this?
