The World of Night

[Believe]

Alex snarled and leant in to the guard, opening his mouth and attempting to rip her throat out.

Spoiler:

I suppose I'll wait for Cowley to post again now. Can't be having all the fun without him

[cowleyj]

James woke up...ah. I see that Alex has been true to his word.. James walked out of the cell and looked around for Alex and any danger there might have been.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer remembered the book he had picked up- he reached into his pocket and opened the pages.

[The-Shadow-One]

The guard's throat opened slightly, blood running.
---
Ashi jumped into the open grate and started to run.
---
The fluttering was increased. The few saw a bird on one of the hands, it had slate grey eyes and a pale stoney blue, it's beak was steel and grey. It cawed and flapped at the few.

[Gandalf]

Vulpar dove through into the tunnel, and flew after Ashi, staying low.

[Justice knight]

"Don't let that thing scratch you," Lucifer said, "Seriuosly don't."

[The-Shadow-One]

Val looked at the bird. It cawed once more, a stone hand moved out, it was now a arm jutting out the wall. "Why?" Val asked.

[Justice knight]

"It'll turn you to stone," Lucifer said there was serious fear in his voice, "Breathing in the gas does the same."

[Kerr]

"What the [&@%!] kind of sewer is this?" asked Hastur.

[Musicman247]

"Let's not find out," Steven said. "Slowly back away."

[The-Shadow-One]

Ashi went east, She came to a sewer of statues. "I.. don't like this." She muttered as she continued on.
---
The hands behind Val extended out, almost blocking the way.

[Justice knight]

"Let's do that," Lucifer said, "I'll take my chances with the hunters before tangling with those birds."

[Kerr]

Hastur started to back up. Hoping to get past the hands and go the other way.

[Gandalf]

"Summat wrong?" Vulpar whispered as he flew alongside her.

[Musicman247]

Steven, too, tried to squeeze past the hands.

[Justice knight]

Lucifer- the only one with some sense- attampted to pry the arms apart with tenatacles.

[The-Shadow-One]

"Statues don't belong in a sewer." Ashi muttered.
---
The hands moved slightly, making it extremely hard for the few to pass though, They extended some more, parts of torso appeared from the wall. The bird flapped and cawed once more. The arms stayed firm.

[Justice knight]

Luicfer was truly panicing now- he unsheathed his sword and brought it down as hard as he could on a nearby arm.

[Gandalf]

Vulpar cawed.

[The-Shadow-One]

A sharp ring was heard as the sword bit into the arm, it only penetrated a few milimetres.
---
Ashi continued on. "You know. Your a nice wereeagle." She said smiling.

[Kerr]

Hastur heard a cawing. "Don't leave me here..." said Hastur truly scared.

[Justice knight]

"Oh [&@%!] this," Lucifer said.
He then tried to move the statues with brute force.

[The-Shadow-One]

The statues stayed firm. A face looked at Lucifer if to say: "Are you a idiot? We're rock and stone!"

[Musicman247]

"I guess the only way through is....through," said Steven. He tucked Vixen inside his shirt to offer the kit as much protection as possible. He took Hastur's hand. "You ready?"

[Justice knight]

"Well we're well and truly [&@%!] then," Lucifer moaned.
