The Carnaval RP (Open)

~Will answered Light's silent question by throwing some loose rubble to the other side of the creature and ran for it, slashing its underbelly as he did~


-Tom saw Will make his move and yelled "RUN!" and started moving-


*Wilco was still frozen in shock*

(( Heyo!  Sorry for the delay, had a TON of work and Life Stuff getting in the way! ))

(( Wilco, would you mind voiding that post you made?  The Mantis's chitinous body wouldn't even get scratched by Will's dagger.  And the sewer has a bunch of water in it, so him running would've made too much noise, and secure his death by having the Mantis catch him; sinking its claws into his chest, lifting him off the ground, and piercing its fangs into his neck.  It would also have no trouble aiming, because its outermost eyes would be able to sense his movement, and it can move and react at a blurring speed... unless you'd rather Will suffer that kind of fate, I'd recommend a different action. ))

(( Anyways, I plan on responding soon, after hearing Wilco's response. ))

OOC: Uh is anyone gonna say somthing or should I?

[Wilco Whiteheart]

[You should]

[lightstone]

"omg when will it go away" lihgt thought to himself before taking action and attacking the beast

[Wilco Whiteheart]

*Wilco grabbed Light before he could do anything* Don't.... Move... *He hisses, looking at Light*

[lightstone]

"we need to go past him, it's either death by the ringmaster or protential death by this beast. He doesn't seem to want to move so SOMEONE must do SOMETHING"

[Wilco Whiteheart]

(Welp. JUSTIN!!!)

[Justin93Daniels]

(( *Sigh*... Why do work schedules have to change so freakin' much? Nonstop, folks just keep asking me to fill in for 'em... sorry!  -_-' ))
(( Wilco, you didn't edit/Void your post.  I was waiting on you to "Edit" your post! ))
(( Ah, well... anyways, ignoring the past few posts here, we'll continue from the "Leo holding the bullets in his hand" thing. ))

After waiting for everyone's scents to be masked, he raises a hand, and signals "Don't move a muscle... don't even try to run if it approaches... it can see your movements, and it can hear the water drops..."

He then tosses a single bullet out towards the intersection.  Immediately when it lands, two massive bladed arms lunge from the ceiling, slicing into the water, and piercing through the metal below.

It then shrieks in a loud, high-pitched hiss, before turning its head around in circles, with its eyes glowing a feint white hue in the darkness.

Due to the closed-in shape of the tunnel, its voice bounces through the walls, likely to leave those with sensitive ears ringing!

Finally, it looks towards the group... and starts to slowly approach them.

*-~All three freeze and hold their breath, making silent wishes to whoever is out there that the Mantis doesn't attack them*-~

[Furry64]

Looking up at the creature he quickly held his breath and tried not to pass out. Not daring to move he tried to mentallly blend into the shadows though he knew it was useless. Looking up at the ceiling he closed his eyes and thought to himself. “I don’t know if there is a good but I’ll sure as[size=78%] heck convert if we get out of this!”[/size]

As the Mantis approaches them, its head drifts from side to side, as it sniffs around, clicking its mandibles together, as if it's relying on echolocation to aid in its sight.

Seeing how he's taken the front, the Mantis begins to approach Leo, who like everyone else, is now standing as still as possible, with his back against the wall.

With his rifle's posture, it covers his heart, which the Mantis's bladed limbs begin to slowly poke around for.

Seeing how there's no heartbeat, but rather, the coldness of the gun, it snarls, before screeching loudly, its mandibles opening widely, and its numerous tiny, yet sharp, teeth just six inches away from his face.

Then, it turns its head, and begins to approach the next nearest soldier.

With its back turned, Leo quickly, yet carefully, tosses the second bullet at the intersection again.

The Mantis turns towards the sudden noise's source, and hisses again, before rushing over to the intersection in a disturbingly fast speed, before slicing around the open area.  Its eyes begin to drift around yet again, before it finally turns left, and starts to stalk around in that particular area.

Leo carefully motions for them to wait for a bit, before the sound of the creature goes more silent.  Finally, he begins to slowly tiptoe towards the intersection, mindfully walking on the tips of his toes so as to not make a sound.

Taking a deep breath, he slips a mirror out from his left pocket, and tilts it slightly, while his NV Goggles help him see the reflections on the screen... the Mantis is still looking around in the left room, but with its back turned towards the intersection, now.

He finally motions for the group to slowly get closer.

*-~The three do what Leo motioned for them to do, slowly*-~
