The God Project.

Perry gasped as Angela suddenly asked him for his opinion. He was still high strung from that message.
"...Uh...I think she has a point. After all...th-that beast on the camera looked very...convincing. I have to admit, I agree with that statement, better safe than sorry."
Getting lost in a labyrinth is one thing, but getting attacked by a monster is quite another.
"But which way should we go first?"
 
"I have a good idea on which way we should go." Vico said, somewhat annoyed at the conflicting ideas. Being the 'natural born leader' he thought he was, he came up with his own idea," Go whichever direction your instinct tells you to go. We have a 50/50 chance of picking right. Even if there is something down there, some of us would survive. I think some of us getting horribly slaughtered isn't as bad as all of us getting slaughtered if we were together, and if half went down one hallway, it'd be like sending three people to death, and three to live. We should decide our own fate from where I'm standing. I don't plan on letting someone else decide my fate, but if you want someone to lead you to your potential doom, that's fine." He chuckled a bit at his black joke. Although it seemed like he wasn't phased, it was a facade so that he wouldn't show any weakness. To him, leaders needed to be absolutely fearless and smart. He thought he fit those slots perfectly.

Vico began walking down the tunnel on the right," Later!" He shouted, walking down the hallway, waving. But the one thing in his head was,' Okay it, bring it on. Lodovico Silvio won't be brought to his grave so easily.'
 
{ Sorry for the confusion. There is no useful map, so I'm changing this post. }

Angela blinked rapidly, unable to believe what she was hearing. "I think the idea is that we'd be better prepared if we stuck together," she pointed out. "It's not like putting all your eggs in one basket. It's collective security. Right?"

Her argument had no effect on Vico - he was already sauntering down the right-hand hallway with a cheery "Later!"

Angela shook her head. She wasn't sure what to do. On the one hand, she felt responsible for Vico's well-being. Everyone's well-being. After all, she was the only adult in a group of young teenagers. With the freaky video in mind, it was crazy to let any one of them wander on their own. Who knew what kind of horror lurked around the corner, asleep for ages but reanimated by the presence of intruders in the building? On the other hand, he was really asking for it.

The responsible side of her won out. Angela sighed and looked at the rest of the group. "If we want to stick together, we'll have to follow him. Come on, guys." She motioned to them to follow Vico down the right-hand hallway, but first took a moment to take photos of the TV screens still showing the strange message: "When it is here..." Her camera was working fine. It didn't seem to be the worse for its fall. Angela had already taken a dozen photos and had a mind to photograph absolutely anything throughout the expedition.

("Vico is really pushing his luck.") Though Perry, as he watched Vico walk off down one of the hallways.
"I think the idea is that we'd be better prepared if we stuck together," Angela said towards Vico. "It's not like putting all your eggs in one basket. It's collective security. Right?"
Perry thought the same thing. There is no way he wanted anything awful happen to anybody.
But her statement didn't grab Vico's attention. Perry had no idea what he could do. Until Angela told the group, "If we want to stick together, we'll have to follow him. Come on, guys."
Perry slowly followed Vico to keep him in sight. At the same time, he waited for the group to follow. Angela was quickly taking a photo of the screens.
At the same time as keeping both Vico and the group in his sight, Perry also looked at his surroundings as well. For he was still nervous of the horrifying creature on the security cameras.
...Scratch that. Perry was still terrified.
 
(OOC: Sorry, been really busy lately, I'll be more active from now on.)

Eyone had been enthusiastically studying everything in the area, making sure not to get to far away from anyone, when the door finally opened and Perry and Angela walked through, soon after followed by Vico, Yo quickly followed them in to the next hallway with the three monitors, as he watched Shigeru Hiyonata's recording give them the cryptic message before the man ended himself, and what was apparently one of the scientists of the god project being devoured harshly by the mysterious monster, Eyone hugged his egg so tightly he had to stop for fear of breaking it, when the discussion of the hallways came up Eyone had no intentions of splitting up, when everybody else began walking away he quickly followed, terrified of being left behind. "I agree, we should stay together" He said out loud as he stayed with the group. "I have no intentions of putting this yet-to-be-born miracle in danger, I don't want anybody to be in any danger."
 
PART 3: THE METAL END AND THE 29 DOORS

You all decide to walk down the right corridor. There is a stuffy cold to the air. You walk pass several blue dark blue doors, each one leading to a room with what seems to be hundreds of pieces of lab equipment. Some of the doors are hanging on their hinges, about to topple inward. Every few yards you will see a window, most of which have been shattered in. Glass lies on the floor along with paint chips and fallen ceiling tiles. You all stop at a sign though. Scribbled on the wall in something red is nothing more than the words "WhEN iT Is HErE..." as if it is a warning. Angela is startled by this and takes a picture. Perry takes a few steps back. Only Vico seems to be unfazed. He presses onward and you follow him.

After walking for 15 minutes, Vico stops to use the restroom in a bathroom down another hallway. After finishing and going back to his crew, Vico sees a silhouette of a man at the far end of the corridor. IT looks at him, and walks away. Vico goes back and tells everybody what happens. He is still unfazed, but he is very wary. They still press forward out of fear.

After 20 minutes of walking you see a large laboratory in which the main wall is broken and crumbled. It is unknown why, but it is from a great force without a doubt There are working computers inside, and the screens depict large memos, pictures of deformed creatures, people with some kind of tumors on them. Large test tubes, broken keyboards, and a huge filing cabinet were in the lab. Eyone said he wanted to see it, but Vico said that they should keep going forward. Everybody followed him again, and were surprised by what they saw next.

After 23 minutes of walking, you realize the hall has changed. The walls have turned from limestone to metal. Above the hall is a sign that has been half damaged. It reads "ISOL####N #HAM#ERS". The hallway has no more turns now, but it still has rooms which are spread identically every few feet. Each one has a number written in a clear font. The end of the hallway is finally seen, and leads into a single room. All rooms seem to be totally intact. There are a total of 29, odds on left, even on right, and number 1 in the middle. The doors to some of the rooms have devices around them. There is some sort of pair of sunglasses in front of 19. Numbers 6 and 25 have some sort of suit. What is the most interesting thing is that number 26 is missing. So, you have a choice. You can pick one of these odd rooms, or go back to the lab you saw earlier.



I would like it if you posted this next bit in 3 parts. One for the first paragraph. One for the second. And one for the last paragraph. Sorry, but I just wanted to make it a bit quicker... Thank you for all you support of this RP!

With all regards,

-ChrisTom



when it is here.....

Eyone held his egg tightly as they continued to walk through the long hallway, it was all so...disturbing, he found himself increasingly thinking it may not have been a good idea to bring a pokemon egg in to such a place with him. So many aged doors and broken windows.....then Eyone saw something that almost made him stop in his tracks, but he refused to let the group get too far ahead of him. On the wall one of the scariest things he had seen yet on the wall announced "WhEN iT Is HErE..." "That doesen't look like it was written by anyone who works here...not good." Eyone couldn't help but feel the scientists who worked here must have been idiots. "Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it....and every time in history that man had messed with nature, it made things worse not better....why weren't they more careful."

They kept walking and the feeling just got worse, Eyone was beginning to think he would go insane whether he was alone or not, but realistically he wasn't going insane, he was just...terrified. He found himself once again murmuring to himself under his breath. "Why couldn't I just let Oak and Pryce find someone else...I worry too much about the past, I need to start thinking more about my future." When Eyone noticed Vico heading down to the restroom he almost said "Don't go alone..." But he kept it to himself, Vico probably wouldn't want to hear it anyways, Eyone gasped with relief when he saw Vico walking back towards them unchanged, but then Eyone's beck hair began tingling so bad he found himself rubbing the back of his neck, and he saw Vico looking past them instad of at them he turned around, but nothing was there, then Vico told them what happened. "Oh great now we're being stalked too...."

Eyone couldn't stop looking at every door and window they passed, then he noticed the change in the walls. "This area is man-made...." He whispered to himself. Eyone noticed the sign as they walked past it and eyed it carefully before continuing. "Hmmm..." Eyone noticed all the rooms with the numbers and strange "Decorations" when they reached the end of the hall and it was obvious that they had to make another decision, Eyone decided to voice his decision right away in case anybody rushed off without paying any attention. "I think the best thing to do would be to go back to the lab earlier, obviously at least some of these rooms were for experiments, they could easily be dangerous, besides, when we passed that sign, I think the first word may have been isolation, although I'm not sure about the second one, and if we go back to the lab we may be able to find logs and other details about the area, maybe even what some of these rooms were for." Eyone looked a little sheepish speaking out like this, but he had thought hard about what he was saying and thought it the most logical choice.
 
WhEN iT Is HErE
("This is far worse than I ever imagined!") Perry thought as he saw the writing on the wall. It looked an awful lot like what he thinks it is. ("This had better be ink.")

They continued down the passage for several minutes, until Vico saw a restroom down another hall and walked over to it. Obviously he needed a rest stop, and Perry didn't blame him. After seeing such horror earlier, anyone would probably have to go. And yet, Vico seemed so confident through all this. Lucky him, he had a heart of steel.

After waiting yet another few minutes, Vico returned with a rather cautious looks on his face.
Vico told him his quick story of seeing a figure staring at him and then running off.
("I hope that was just another explorer in this labyrinth and not a creep.")
Continuing onward, Perry kept turning his head left and right and even backwards. Luckily no one was in sight.
Further and further they went, until they reached another lab room. It was filled with chemical supplies, computers, and all that. But Vico again decided to move onward. Looking around, Perry saw that the walls were artificial walls. ("Is that a good thing or a bad thing?") Perry questioned to himself. Once he faced forward again, he flinched at the sight of a broken sign above the hall, saying "ISOL####N #HAM#ERS".
("Isolig...Isolat...Ham...Sham...ers.") Perry was trying to decode what it was trying to say.

Moving on, they finally reached a room that had doorways to other rooms, each having a different number.
"I think the best thing to do would be to go back to the lab earlier, obviously at least some of these rooms were for experiments, they could easily be dangerous, besides, when we passed that sign, I think the first word may have been isolation, although I'm not sure about the second one, and if we go back to the lab we may be able to find logs and other details about the area, maybe even what some of these rooms were for." Eyone suggested. He had a point. Perry almost forgot why they were there in the first place: to find information on the many different legends in the world. That lab could contain anything.
("Wait....Isolation?") He remembered what that sign and that first word seemed to fit perfectly. ("Isolation...slammers.....chammers........Chambers!")
"That's it, Eyone! Isolation...Chambers. Each numbered door must contain something that's being isolated." Speaking among a group like that was not like Perry, but he had to let everyone know what those rooms must be.
"...But I don't know if any isolated chamber is safe.
....Maybe Eyone is right, we should check back at the lab. We are looking for information for Professor Oak.....r-right?"
 
They followed Vico down the right-hand corridor. Angela still felt anxious about him being in the lead. To convince herself that she had some control over the situation, she called out her Espeon. The Pokemon emerged with her hair up and ears alert, perturbed by the strange smells in the corridor, but Angela calmed her with a touch. "Head to the back and keep the stragglers in line," Angela instructed her. The Espeon obeyed silenty, joining the end of the expedition, behind Perry. Occasionally, she lept forward to nip his ankles as though he were a straggling sheep and she a cattle dog. But mostly she kept her distance, padding along softly and single-mindedly focused on the corridor's distant end.

When Vico split from the group to find a bathroom, the Espeon followed and stood guard by the door. The silhouette of a man seemed to appear unawares; catching sight of the creature, she sat still, frozen by terror of something incomprehensible. When Vico opened the door, noticing the silhouette himself, the spell was broken. Desperately, the Espeon fired a Confusion beam, but the thing was too far away for it to have any effect. The creature seemed to look at them, then leave.

When Vico returned and told the rest about the incident, Angela could draw only one conclusion. Holding her Espeon safely close, she asserted, "We should stick together. If anyone else needs a bathroom break, we should follow. Just in case."

They continuined on, the Espeon still bringing up the rear, and Angela found many more things to photograph. The crumbled laboratory wall. The bizarre displays of the computer screens. Rows of test tubes. "ISOL####N #HAM#ERS"...wait, what? Isolation chambers? Angela couldnt't see much of a difference between this stretch of hallway and those they had passed in the last hour. Still, the sign made her nervous. She studied one of the doors, rapping on it with her knuckles. It gave a muffled sound.

Angela turned her attention to Perry and Eyone. They had apparently figured out what the sign had meant.

"We are looking for information for Professor Oak.....r-right?"

"That's right," Angela replied. "And since it's information we need, the lab would be a natural place to start. There are filing cabinets and computers full of documents. Why start in the isolation chambers? It doesn't make a lot of sense to look in every single room. This place is so big, we'd be here all day and all night." And she was getting tired of walking.
 
Ok everybody. Here it is. The next part. BTW, I'm suprised yet glad that nobody has split off yet...

PART 4: THE DECREPIT LAB AND THE MESSAGE FROM THE PAST

It was a unanimous decision. The group, tired from the endless walking, turned around from the steel walls and walked back. As they were walking a ceiling tile fell down revealing broken electric cords. Perry was just lucky enough to miss it as he was in front. The electricity spazzticly came out buzzing every once in a while. When they reached the lab door Eyone felt his Egg move. It was jerking around, harder and harder, until it basically jumped out of his arms. It hit the floor with a loud crack as pieces of the smashed Egg fell around. A small Kabuto, with eyes of dark glowing red, skittered across the floor. It looked up at Eyone happy but worried. But then for seemingly no reason it ran away. It skittered across the floor and through several series of hallways before disappearing from sight. Eyone was sad that his hatchling ran away, and tried to pick up some of the egg. They then walked into the Lab.

The smell of sulfur leaked into the air. The only lights were dim and hadn't been in care in years. To the right were several computers on a corner desk. The keyboards were mangled and twisted. A few green words lit up the black screen. The computer in best condition was on the left of the desk. Its screen lit up brightly and showed images of deformities on humans. With no mouse to be seen it was impossible to view any other photographs. Above the computers was a screen showing rewinding and playing footage of a person in front of an Uxie. The Uxie made them explode, and then the screen would rewind and show them back together again. It was a constant loop of a person's death. On the other left corner of the room there was a large cylindrical tank and a small filing Cabinet. At the far end of the room there is a window. On the left of the room there was another large window showing into the main hallway. Below it there were 2 more filing cabinets (Locked with some sort of 4 number combination) and a desk. The desk had several audio tapes and a player on the desk. In the center of the room was an island with large capsules filled with different liquids. And then a radio was situated on the island as well. Eyone walked over and turned it on.

"Plum Plum Plum Plum Plum,
Bum Bum Bum Bom Bum.
Mr.Sandman, bring me a dream!
Bum Bum Bung Bung.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen!
Bung Bung Bung Bong..."

Eyone tried to turn it off, but the music just wouldn't stop. He pressed the button a few more times, but nothing. He flipped it over and saw that there were no batteries. The music just continued. Eyone opened the cassette slot to find there was none. The song continued. "Just make it shut up!" Vico yelled with a quick temper. The song was drilling into his brain, annoying him. Unbeknownst to the rest, Vico had been having a vicious headache since he saw the sillhoute. Angela walked over to try and comfort him, but he just steped away. The world seemed to be falling. He couldn't get the song out of his head. He angrily grabbed the radio and smashed it on the ground, finally ending the quartet song. The group was stunned by his sudden outburst. "Hey man, it's okay." Eyone said. Vico just angrily rubbed his temples, which seemed to be screeching.

Angela nervously walked over to a chair and sat down next to the Filing cabinet. When she opened it she found letters to people. Pictures of beaches, waterfalls, forests, mountains. Postcards from small beach towns, small roadside landmarks. Then there was a picture of a young boy chewing on a chocolate turtle sitting in the lap of an older man. The man had a sharp moustache and a look of bliss at the boy. At the bottom of the photo was a description: Mr. Fuji and his son on April 23rd 1987. The group walked over to the desk with the other cassettes and Eyone put one in the player. A small mechanical whine was heard and then a message*:
Spoiler:

While listening to the accounts you see the television change. A man who looks to be 25 is on the screen. His hair is jet black and he is in a nice suit. The stuttering voice echos across the hallways "Listen! Um, it's coming near you guys. Listen to me: go to the second filing cabinet. Open it with the combination 1-9-4-3. In the back you should find a gun. When you see it, shoot. He should be stunned for about 10 minutes and while he is you run like hell. Uh... You can find me by walking down the main front hallway back to the entrance and then keep going until you see a red piece of wood. The door I'm in is locked, so to come in you need to put in an anagram of my name! My name is Matthew Setauby. Just hurry!" The screen fades to black... You hear loud footsteps coming closer. Eyone quickly throws all of the cassettes and the player into his bag. The steps echo louder and louder with each one. You see a silhouette of a man in a black suit outside of the window. It's arms seem thick and bumpy. It's fingers are long and spindly and the tips are saucer-like. It's eyes glow blue. And It's neck has a second bony spinal chord piercing out of his back and then to the back of It's head. IT turns and looks. IT sees the small rubble of the radio on the floor. IT stares right at Vico, knowing of what happened. Vico's eyes felt as if they were jumping into It's eyes. Flashes of the light blue jerked in his eyes. He closed his eyes, it wouldn't stop. It just kept going and going. "AAAUUUGH!!" He screamed in pure agony. Vico stops, his neck morbidly twists. His eyes become filled with grey. He stares. He falls to the ground. It looks at the radio, and it lifts up in the air before reassembling. The music turns back on...

"Mr.Sandman, bring me a dream..."






I'd like it if you posted this with your initial reactions to the above events, and then whoever posts first may grab the gun and try to shoot the creature if they want. Just end the post with something like "Bob fired the gun squinting his eyes.". I want other people to post to, but end the post with "Out of the corner of his eye Jake saw Bob fire the gun at It.". Good luck to you all.

*These aren't important, but I threw them in for anybody who wants to read them.




When it is here.....

{OOC: Eeesh! Long post.}

"Woah!" Perry was startled half to death as a tile on the roof crashed down.
Soon afterwards, Perry looked over and saw that the egg that Eyone is holding is moving.
("Is it hatching?") Perry hoped.
All of a sudden, it leaped right out of Eyone's arms and crashed onto the floor. And right in its place was a small, baby Kabuto.
("It may be a bug, but it's sort of...cute too.") Perry said in his own mind happily.
It looked up at its master loyally, but in flash, it ran off down the halls and vanished. Perry looked over at Eyone picking up the pieces of the egg shell. Perry can't resist seeing one looking gloomy. He put his hand on Eyone's shoulder, "I'm sure Kabuto will be safe." Perry sure hoped so too. Who knows what things could be in this labyrinth.
There was no option but to move forward. They continued on through the hall and made it back to the lab room. Just like earlier, it was a room filled with science...possibly terrible science.
It wasn't long before Perry could tell that the room was filled with terrifying science. Some of the computer screens showed what seemed to be human experiments. Most of which looked revolting.
But right above the screens was something far, far worse. It was a video that kept looping over and over, of an Uxie standing behind a person...and making him explode, causing a dreadful death.
(".......Who...are these people?!") He also wondered why a Pokémon like Uxie would do such a gory thing.
Turning his attention away, Perry sat in a chair and rested his legs. He looked around and saw in the center of the room an array of liquid containers, all of them different. Among the containers, there was an odd-looking radio.
("I hope that if it works, it'll broadcast something that'll calm us down.") It was a little difficult to not think about all the shocking things he saw today. ("Calm, Perry, calm.") He said to himself.

He took notice of Eyone examining the radio and swithced it on.

"Plum Plum Plum Plum Plum,
Bum Bum Bum Bom Bum.
Mr.Sandman, bring me a dream!
Bum Bum Bung Bung.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen!
Bung Bung Bung Bong..."

"Eyone, turn that stuff off!" Perry didn't like that song and it was making a bit of noise; someone could hear it.
Eyone tried shutting it off, but it was no use. He kept pushing the button, but it wouldn't turn off. Furthermore, he flipped it around and saw that there weren't any batteries in it.
("It must be haunted!")

After a while, the song ended ("Thank goodness"). Eyone opened the slot inside and found that no tape was playing either.
("Okay...it is haunted!")
Perry and the others found more cassette tapes on desk and Eyone took one and inserted it in the slot.
When the tape started to play, they heard what sounded like a researcher's log or something.
("Human cloning........catastrophic events.........legendary Pokémon.......tumors.........a Celebi rampage....an angry Uxie attack?")
The angry Uxie attack must be what that terrible footage is.
Right then, the TV screen suddenly changed. A black-haired man was onscreen and he started to speak.
"Listen! Um, it's coming near you guys. Listen to me: go to the second filing cabinet. Open it with the combination 1-9-4-3. In the back you should find a gun. When you see it, shoot. He should be stunned for about 10 minutes and while he is you run like hell. Uh... You can find me by walking down the main front hallway back to the entrance and then keep going until you see a red piece of wood. The door I'm in is locked, so to come in you need to put in an anagram of my name! My name is Matthew Setauby. Just hurry!"
The screen then goes out as Perry stood shocked.

Perry shook himself back to his senses when he heard footsteps coming from outside. There was no time to lose; Perry looked for and found the filing cabinet with a four digit lock on it.
("What was the code? ....Oh right.") Perry quickly put in the code just as said in the video message.
Luckily, it snapped open, and right inside it was a dust-covered pistol. He picked it up quickly and gently.
Perry never held a gun as long as he could remember, so he didn't feel very safe having it in his hands. The footsteps came right up to them and Perry turned towards the window. Right outside in the main hallway was a dark man with deformed fingers, burly arms, glowing blue eyes, and what looked like another backbone coming from his back and reconnecting to his head.
("This...is...insane!") Perry wondered if these were ruins or an underground hell.
It instantly looked towards the group and the busted radio starts playing again, startling Perry. He wish he could shoot it, but it could retaliate...or worse, miss.
"Uhh...Hold this, Angela!" Perry nervously said without thought and quickly places the pistol in Angela's hands.

[ Maybe we could write Vico's disappearance into the plot, somehow? Give him an explosive death? He had quite an effect on my character's motivation, so pretending he was never there is going to be difficult.

Oh, and I downloaded the song. It's super awesome. =D ]

[ I think my post rivals TJ's. It really is ridiculously long, so I'm going to spoiler out all events belonging to the relatively recent past. ]

Spoiler:


...The laboratory was poorly lit. Green screensavers - or something similar - glowed to the right, where a pair of computers sat on a desk. Angela moved closer and found that their keyboards were mangled. Strange images filled the screen of a third computer. Deformed humans? What a strange sort of screensaver, Angela thought, and took a picture. She then turned and took some shots of the whole lab, catching Perry and Eyone in a couple of them. She flipped back through the shots and made a face. Her camera's flash was weak and the photos were poorly focused. It would be hard to make atmospheric shots in this light.

Angela turned her attention to the monitors, rattling the keyboards, pressing buttons, and quickly growing certain that they were unresponsive. The computers themselves were out of sight. Leaning an elbow on the table, she wondered what would keep a group of monitors active for so many years. How long had this 'project' been abandoned, according to the Profs? She couldn't remember. Ages. But the computers were working. So was a monitor above them. The animated video on the screen caught her attention and chilled her blood.

"What the hell?" she whispered.

Misa, meanwhile, had split from her owner and gone to scout out the perimeter of the lab. There was a lot of dust in the corners, but nothing very interesting. She snuck between desks and sniffed the air. Nothing here, either. Coming out onto the open carpet, she glanced back at the moving images on the screen, failing to comprehend them. The center island, though, seemed promising. She leapt nimbly onto its surfce, ignoring the liquid-filled capsules. From her vantage point, she could see all around the lab.

..."Bum bum bum bum..." Eerie in their inanity, the unanticipated first bars of 'Mr. Sandman' floated through the room. Angela's skin crept as she tried, without moving a muscle, to figure out where it was coming from. Eyone's exasperated attempts to turn the music off gave some explanation. She relaxed and followed the tune to the radio.

"Make him the cutest that I've ever seen..." The delicate, fuzzy music seemed to fill the darkness, giving the room a kind of intimacy. Angela felt very strange. Surely this was a dream, or a movie, perhaps. She found herself tapping her foot in rhythm with the song.

"Eyone, turn that stuff off!" Perry cried. "I kind of like it," Angela protested. "It's catchy."

Trying to turn it off, Eyone flipped the radio over and discovered... "No batteries?" Angela choked. She had to feel the radio for herself to believe it. "There must be some internal power source," she suggested. "Wait, check the tape slot." The chorus to the song repeated. Angela closed her eyes and nodded along with the song. She even tried to hum. "Mr. Sandman, bring us a dream!"

Opening the tape cassette slot, Eyone found that there was no tape in the radio. "Okay, so there must be some internal power source," Angela concluded. "It can't run on air. Right? The laws of physics still apply, don't they?" She tried to joke. It came off rather flat.

Vico seemed to be incredibly irritated by the music. "Just turn it off!" he cried, clutching his temples. Angela looked at him with sympathy in her eyes. "Headache?" she asked, trying to put her arm over his shoulders. He shrugged her off angrily, grabbing the radio out of Eyone's hands and smashing it to pieces on the ground in one violent gesture. Silence descended.

Angela took a step back from Vico. "Whoah. No need to get violent on us." Things of that sort made her very nervous. "Hey man, it's okay." Eyone said. Vico stood with his eyes closed, rubbing his temples and breathing heavily.

...Angela found the file cabinet. Luckily, the drawers were unlocked. She pulled up a chair and opened the lowest drawer, ready to dig into files and memos. What she found, though, looked like personal documents. There were hand-written letters and photographs. "This doesn't seem to fit here," Angela commented. She clicked her tongue, busily taking out stacks of papers and spreading them out on a desk, intending to go through them at her leisure. The drawer was stuffed, and the papers piled up without consequence. Angela decided to leave the letters, whose script she could hardly read, in the drawer. She started searching the drawer for photos, bringing out a few dozen. "Are these vacation photos?" There were waterfalls, forests, beach towns, roadside landmarks. She judged that the photos were from different vacation spots, taken over a long length of time. Nothing in them looked familiar.

One photo stood out from the rest. It was a picture of a boy sitting on his father's lap. There was a description on the bottom: "Mr. Fuji and his son on April 23rd 1987." Fuji...that was a familiar name. Wasn't it the name on the memo in this building's first room? Angela was glad she'd photographed it.

The photo seemed important. The owner of his drawer had to be either Fuji or his son. Angela decided to take it with her. After a moment's pause, she gathered up all of the photographs and stuffed them into her backpack, behind the granola bars and extra clothing.

Meanwhile, Eyone inserted another tape [where?]. The trio listened to what seemed to be a researcher's log. To Angela's mind it paralleled the video loop with the Uxie and...explosion. Creepy stuff.

"What we are doing now is cloning a Human but adding the genetics of the legendary Pokemon. This will allow us to have a subject who is willing to speak when we ask it questions on its power." Angela had taken a class in genetics and was pretty sure that wasn't how it worked. But what did she know?

As the tape played, a television screen came on. Full of apprehension, Angela listened to the second surprise video. But this one seemed to be live. A live person in this building? Angela's heart leaped. It didn't seem to be possible...but how else could this Matthew character have predicted those footsteps?

As Eyone threw the tapes into his bag, Misa, still on the central island, gave a warning cry. She was looking through the window at a lumpy, man-shaped sillhoutte. As Angela watched, it turned its head and revealed glowing blue eyes. Her heart pounded. She was seized with an irrational belief that, if the THING chose, it could just walk forward through the window, as though it wasn't there.

Vico started to scream. The THING was looking right at him, as though piercing him through with its glowing blue eyes. Its eyes! He was speared on that gaze, caught in its beam, snared like a fish. He screamed as though his life were being wrung out of him, and when the last drop was gone, her grew silent. His head snapped back and he collapsed to the floor like a ragdoll. Angela watched, rooted to the floor, as pieces of the broken radio rose into the air and reassembled themselves into an entire machine.

The song began to play again. "Bum bum bum bum..."

Cold metal in her hands snapped her back to reality. "Uhh...Hold this, Angela!" Hardly thinking, she aimed the pisol at the THING and fired with a jerk, squeezing her eyes shut. (What about the glass? Would it deflect the bullet? Could she even hit that thing? Angela wasn't thinking.)

Eyone noticed the change back as they continued walking towards the labratory, it was slightly comforting, but only a little. As they walked Eyone's wandering eyes noticed a loose tile slipping he almost yelled "Watch out!" But he didn't have to, the tile never touched Perry, Eyone breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could relax his egg began bumping around so hard it hit him in the chin, causing him to drop it, as it did the egg shattered and where it had been, was a little baby Kabuto, it's red eyes glittered as it looked at Eyone, he thought it was happy, and then it ran away skittering into the distance, Eyone gasped as the Espeon pounced at Kabuto. After the Ordeal Eyone began sadly gathering up the eggshells, probably the only memory he would have of the baby. "Great, now that it's been attacked it will never come back.....

When they went inside the Laboatory, Eyone noticed how dim it was. "Well it figures, everything else in this place is wierd and ominous, why not the lights." As everyone looked around Eyone studied the computers. "Hmmm, creepier and creepier." Eyone noticed Angela taking pictures of the things in the room, good, documentation. The video playing on the large monitor captured Eyone's attention. "I wonder what all this means." he said to himself, rubbing his chin for a moment

As he continued to look for useful information, Eyone stumbled upon an old tape player, he assumed there would be some sort of log on it, so he pressed the button in hopes of hearing one, the noise it began to make almost caused him to drop it.

"Plum Plum Plum Plum Plum,
Bum Bum Bum Bom Bum.
Mr.Sandman, bring me a dream!
Bum Bum Bung Bung.
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen!
Bung Bung Bung Bong..."

Eyone didn't like listening to 'mister sandman' very much, but he was willing to bear through it for the sake of learning more about the damn place, but just when Eyone was finally beginning to relax Vico apparently couldn't take it anymore. "Just turn it off!" He yelled at Eyone, the look on his face and the edge to his voice almost made Eyone brace to be punched, so he began to frantically look for a way to shut the player off, he felt like screaming when he turned it over to find that there was no tape inside, meaning Eyone could only wait for the music to end.By the time the song finally ended Eyone was ready to bash the player to bits to make it stop, but when it finally did he decided that getting information was more important than sparing his ears, so he began to look through the tapes that were by the player when he found it until he got the one with a promising title. When he was about to put it in Vico snatched the player out of Eyone's hand and smashed it to bits on the floor, yelling. "No more! That's enough!" Eyone tried to calm Vico down, until he managed to get Vico down to just rubbing his temples.

Eyone was about to go look for something else to do, when he noticed Angela looking through a filing cabinet, apparently finding all sorts of interesting things. "Hey, what'd you find?" is what Eyone was about to ask Angela, when the large moniter turned on again, this time it appeared to be a live transmission, the man looked very worried as he explained the situation and what the four explorers needed to do. Eyone was going to run to get the gun before the creature showed up, but then IT did, this thing must have been the it that had been mentioned to them all so often, it looked absolutley horrible. The creature raised it's hand into the air and pointed it's bulbous finger's at the group and Vico's eyes went gray and sunk back into his head before he fell to the ground, lifeless. Eyone went to get the gun, but Perry was quicker, but he panicked and handed the gun to Angela, who was so scared and startled that she shot the gun with her eyes closed and missed it, now that Eyone didn't have his egg to protect he could take charge, so he did. Eyone snatched the gun from Angela's hand and shot the gun at the thing, he hit it in the head, but the bullet just bounced off, luckily the thing fell to the ground, apparently unconcious, Eyone waved the other two survivors out of the room, yelling. "Go, go, go! We don't have time to be scared right now!"
 
Alrighty then. Let's get this show on the road. RainbowMunchies? You will get your part in the next bit, I am very sorry. As of right now, the team needs to get to your abode. Once they do you can let them in.

PART 5: THE HALL AND THEN SOME...

The glass shattered into a thousand small pieces, as the bullet broke through and peirced It in the skull. It fell to the ground, limp. Eyes still wide open, but no longer glowing. The hands of it seemed to twitch nervously. You walk over to see it's face. Much to your surprise, he is actually quite handsome. His eyes are a pastel shade of green. His skin is as smooth as a newborns. Even his hands feel like a clean comforter. His face is angular, but not cleft. He seems like a normal person. But his hands stand out like a sore thumb, and his arms are too deformed to bear to be this close to. You catch up with the rest of the group. Tiny shards of glass littered the floor. 10 minutes. That's all you have until it comes back to life. You all scurry into the main hall. Sirens start blaring. "ATTENTION. SECTOR 5, FIRST FLOOR, IS UNDER QUARANTINE. ALL PERSONEL MUST REPORT TO A BUNKER FOR THEIR SAFETY IMMEDIATELY. ATTENTION. SECTOR 5, FIRST FLOoorr......." The cautionary warning is slowed and then turned off. All of the mildly working lights flicker and go off. You dig into your backpacks to find the flashlights. Walking in the pitchblack of the subterranean tunnels, you feel nothing but fear. Fear clings to you like humidity. Every noise seems to be that of a demon. You all simply procede. Right when you are about to see the lobby (where you started, and where you must pass to meet Matt.) you hear scurrying. A turn to the left and you see a "creature". Words can not describe the pure fright from the creature's look. It has the face of a human, but it is deformed as if it the skin was boiling off of the person like a Muk. The skin is like this all over the body and is incredibly pale with a slight blue. Two claws hang from it's hand giving it the look of a Sandslash. A crouching stance gives it an even more terrifying look. As you lift your flashlight above it you see 5 more creatures just like it. You must quickly take out your best Pokemon and use moves to defeat these... things.

There are moves that do not work on the monsters, so choose carefully. Specifically Ghost and Psychic Moves. Dark is only Super-Effective if it is a physical attack. Fire, Electric, and any variations of the Move Slash. Rock Types do NOT work on them.





When it is here...
