demonbelthazor: (Bel is in the Wastelands)

The Wastelands, Saturday evening Fandom Standard Time [NFB]

With the powers he'd gained from vanquished demons, Bel was able to fight back against the Beast. But even with those powers, he was still tired and once again wondering why he was struggling so hard to survive. He was trapped here for eternity, and he didn't want to spend that time running for his life.


[For them that know who they are. NFB due to distance.]

Nadia spotted the tongues and tightened her grip on her gun and sword, moving to circle the group. They didn't seem to be after her yet, so she kept an eye out for anyone who might be having trouble with them.

She had no problem playing back up, just now.

One of the tongues that was heading towards Phale suddenly stopped, swiveling toward Nadia. It began to move toward her.
nadiathesaint: (skicap)

Wow, those tongue things were . . . really effin' gross.

And not the best targets for guns. She quickly swapped her gun for her taser, dropping one foot back and holding her sword at ready, should the thing try to attack her.

The tongue maintained a slow pace as it crept towards Nadia and then suddenly lashed out and tried to wrap itself around her ankle to knock her off balance.
nadiathesaint: (doom)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Nadia shifted her weight back and swung down with her sword at . . . well, the end the tongue was leading with, anyway.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
The tongue managed to retreat before she could hit it. It looked for another opening to attack.
nadiathesaint: (skicap)

Nadia . . . attempted to circle the tongue.

[identity profile] threeweapons.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
At that moment, Alanna's purple fireball came back down.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
And landed right on the tongue and sizzled. It pulled back away from Nadia.

Too bad for her that one of its friends was approaching from the other side.
nadiathesaint: (eep!)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Nadia was a bit too busy going "OMGWTFFIREBALL?" to notice the other tongue sneaking up on her. She flailed slightly, almost falling over in her attempt to not be near the now flaming tongue.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
The tongue tried to wrap itself around her knees.
nadiathesaint: (doom)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
And it even did so. Nadia tried to twist and hack at the thing without cutting her own legs off with her sword but . . . well . . . she's not actually that good with a sword. In the process, she falls backwards, landing awkwardly on her shoulder.

Naturally, because that's just how things go, for Nadia, said shoulder dislocates quietly.

"OwowowowOFFowowowowow,"

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
And now that she's down, the tongue slithers up and wraps itself around her neck.
nadiathesaint: (doom)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
"Ack!"

Tasering something that's actively touching you? Nadia decided this would not be the best idea in the world.

Fortunately, she has brought many weapons.

She dropped the taser and grabbed her hunting knife, forcing herself to use her injured arm so she could pull at the tongue on her neck and slip the blade in between it and her own skin.

The tongue's grip loosened when she managed to stab it, but it didn't drop completely.
nadiathesaint: (you suck)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
Nadia gasped for air and started cutting at the tongue, moving to get to her knees so she could get up as soon as she got free.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
The tongue ended up falling to pieces around her.
nadiathesaint: (resigned)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Nadia jumped quickly back to her feet and tucked her knife away before turning her attention to her injured shoulder.

She was really sick of that thing getting dislocated.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Another tongue burst through the ground directly in front of Nadia and immediately moved to wrap itself around her wrist.
nadiathesaint: (bullshit)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
After a quick moment of "aw crap!" Nadia recognized a golden opportunity. She clamped her good hand on her injured shoulder and pulled sharply back against the tug of the tongue.

It made her wrist hurt like nobody's business, but--*pop!*

Shoulder back in joint.

"Thanks," she said to the tongue, then grabbed her mallet and started beating at it.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
The mallet beating wasn't very nice and the tongue squeezed Nadia's wrist in an attempt to get her to stop.
nadiathesaint: (doom)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Holy mother of--that HURT!

So she started kicking at it. "Owowowletgoletgoowowowow!"

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
The kicking didn't hurt quite as bad as the malleting, so the tongue wasn't inclined to listen to her request.
nadiathesaint: (aw crap)

[personal profile] nadiathesaint 2007-03-04 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
"Crap! Owowowowowowow. . . ." Mallet got swapped for the baton, which had better reach, and she went back to trying to beat the tongue off.

[identity profile] neurotic-witch.livejournal.com 2007-03-04 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
The tongue wasn't budging. It was waiting for backup from one of its' buddies.
