The only responses you get are yells, screams, the sounds of things being knocked over, and distant weapon discharges, all with what sounds like some sort of strange droning or chanting in the background, luckily you appear to have a somewhat clear path, though you note spatters of blood along the wall despite there being no bodies. Howver, you do note that the disposal is closed, with what look like signs of a struggle just outside of it and drops of blood leading away to the left.

Looking back, you'll notice that your pursuer is having some trouble keeping up, the narrow corridor being an impediment to it's mass as it claws after you, eyes fixated on the core you're carrying with a mixture of hunger and rage as it roars, hurling pieces of debris at you clumsily in an attempt to slow you down, you should have time to set the disposal doors to open if you're quick, but something about that blood trail is... off.

Nellie grits her teeth as she hears the chaos, as well as the odd noises in the background.
She does keep her pace, ignoring the blood for the time being, but putting the cell down safely before trying to open the disposal to prepare the trap she's about to use.

She really just hopes this works.

She completely ignores the odd blood, though she can't help but shake the feeling something's not quite right about this place.

5vs5, roll on door encounter: 71


The monster's tendril crashes right next to your head as you open the lock on the trash disposal door, and as you do so you feel the presence of something... off as the monster that had been chasing you suddenly stops, then, with many voices, it screams in what sounds like absolute terror before attempting to scramble backwards before the doors open fully, and you have to grab onto the nearby corner to avoid being sucked in as the air screams around you, an ominous yellow looking light emanating from the door. Your position makes it difficult to see what's beyond, but you suddenly become very aware of something big out there, impossibly big as the monster flees down the corridor, before beginning to slide inexorably back towards the door, screaming and gurgling frantically as it claws at the walls and doors around it while the vast entity beyond seems to pull it back.

Nellie clings on for dear life, slapping her tentacles on the nearest smooth surface as well as practically coiling around the nearest place possible to avoid the decompression sucking her out the hatch.

She's definitely not sure this feeling is good news, especially with how the monster is seemingly reacting to it.

The feeling of dread feels as if it's writing through her chest, which is definitely something she isn't a fan of.

Rolling for one more strike from the monster as it falls out: 14 vs 2: 3 damage


The air rushes around you as the ship seems to actually tilt, like it's being grasped by some massive thing's hands, or jaws, your former pursuer shrieks as it falls into the hole, a flailing limb striking you in the side hard enough to nearly knock you from your perch before it's sent hurtling into the void and the trash disposal doors beep in confirmation before steadily closing, your eyes catching a glimpse of yellow, glowing mist trailing into the ship before it was closed off, and you drop to the floor, a sense of that same vastness still outside the ship, enveloping it as it begins to rock, and you hear something crack off in the distance. You can't be sure what, but that sounded like metal beginning to protest and squeal under pressure as the familiar figure of Tessa and a few crew are running towards your position, Tessa suddenly sprinting towards you while a new alarm begins to sound, followed by an automated voice.

"Warning, the vessel has begun to take structural damage and at least forty passengers and crew have been reported to have been voided due to breaches, with at least sixty more casualties due to unknown variables. Please report to the escape pods and prepare for emergency evacuation."

"The ship... it's coming apart..." Tessa says with a pale face, eyes wide as you hear the sound of more tearing metal, closer this time.

Nellie grunts as the big limb slams into her, holding on for dear life as she fears the creature will probably get a grip on at least her dress, and at worst herself to drag her with it.

"What in the..." She mutters to herself as she sees the weird mist fly inside, gasping a little as she hears the structurally groaning noises.

"What the fuck is happening to this place? I got the monster lured over and vented it, so why's the ship coming sounding like a can being sq--"

She's then interrupted by the alert blaring through the ship, making her seem incredibly confused and a bit mortified, "I nearly died for no reason, huh? Fuck, this shit better go smoothly post-evac.."

She's got no idea if her brief radiation trip has had any negative effects on her, but she's not exactly considering that right now, as she goes to try and hug Tessa (Even if her dress may or may not have been torn or ripped by the beast slamming into her on the way out).

Tessa is shaken out of her horrified daze by the sudden contact, and she squeezes you for dear life for a moment. "You were really cool though Nellie, but that was really fucking scary, please don't do something like that again." Tessa asks, her normally bubbly voice sounding much smaller, almost like a child begging their mother not to leave them, before one of your fellow crewmen clears her throat, eyeing your surroundings with pretty clear paranoia. "We should probably get going, can you run as you are? You're looking pretty beat up, and shiny." she notes, registering your faint glow, roughly like a dimly powered lava lamp in intensity. You do feel hotter than usual, though it could also be due to the adrenaline rush or Tessa's body heat, it's hard to determine with how chaotic things are now.

Down the hall, away from the route to the escape pods, comes more shrieks and screams, and the wrenching of metal, a few sound like the monster you'd voided just moments before, was this some sort of invasion?

"Shit, guess we'll have to travel upwards, maybe through the observation deck..." One crewman thinks aloud, thinking of the route on the right side of the ship. "What do we do if more of those things show up? Just run?"

"Oh, and you uh, might wanna do something about your outfit, betting it's feeling a bit drafty down under." she adds, noting how when the monster took it's last swipe off you, it had torn off a large chunk of the left half of your clothing, leaving you exposed from foot to lower breast, with your right side being largely untouched save for the damage from it's first attack.

Nellie hugs Tessa tighter, gently nuzzling the back of her head as she reassures her, "Don't worry, I won't. Let's get to the escape pods, alright?" She gives her a little kiss on the cheek as she pulls away from the hug. "At least it didn't hurt you."

Looking around the group as she hears what's going on around the place, and then what the crew tells her, Nellie can't help but get a bit stunned at what she's hearing.

Though as the crewmember informs her of her outfit damage, Nellie grunts a bit, tearing the last bit of the dress off of herself in one rip,
"Bah, to the abyss with it; I don't care, and I've got way bigger priorities right now than nudity; Such as still trying to make sure nobody here becomes some freaky creature's dinner." She says in a disgruntled tone, more angry at what's going on around them, than anything else.

"My glow is nothing new, either way; Pink bits have always been glowy." She replies, thinking it's just the same thing that's being mentioned.

Tessa nods uncertainly, sniffing just a bit before taking a deep breath as the group collectively steels itself for what's to come, your crewmate shrugging. "Alright, if you say so." she says, glancing at your groin and navel for just a moment with some lingering concern.

It's immediately after that when you hear groaning above you all, and as you look up, you can see the ceiling above you beginning to warp and bend, the sound of something sizzling can also be heard on the other side as more vaguely humanoid gurgles come from the direction, shifting occasionally as the metal begins to almost bubble, a few drops landing on a repairman and causing him to yelp in pain as everyone jumps away from the source.

"We should get going before whatever's above us comes down, quick!" Tessa declares, pointing down the hall towards a small flight of stairs. "That'll get us to the observation deck, if we're lucky it'll give us a clear shot for the pods, let's go!"

Nellie gives a nod, looking between the group as she scans the amount of people, "Probably a chemical spill, let's go." She says in a lower tone before waving the people onward. She doesn't comment on her crewmate's looking on, giving a wink as she continues to wave the group on.
She makes sure she can keep an eye on the group, as she isn't sure anyone else has experience keeping civilian groups under control.

"Don't shout, try to make as little noise as possible. Shoes off quickly, the noise might alert those...things we're on the move." She 'orders', "Trust me, I'm an ex-ranger." She adds.

Your group consists of five people, including you and Tessa. The repairman and female engineer both appear to be in their mid to late twenties, and they look similar enough that you might guess them to be siblings or cousins going by their similarly colored dark green "hair" and eyes. The fifth member appears to be an old man with a limp, though he doesn't have any obvious injuries. He's carrying what looks to be a carbine, and the long burn scar along his jawline doesn't look like a work accident as he snaps a small salute to you, being the last to go before you do as everyone kicks off their shoes and moves as quickly and quietly as possible, the sounds of shouts, screams and fighting starting to fade in most directions, but picking up along the way towards the escape pods.

As you travel, you hear something crash behind you, and look to see that an orange looking blob has eaten through the ceiling and landed on the floor, containt something within it's core as it shifts and oozes about, it's only when you take a moment to look closely that you realize what's in it's body.

Bones.

Nellie salutes back to the old man, as she follows pretty much next to the group, only a step or two behind them.

"Stay close together, strength in num--" is what she can get out before she heads the crash behind her, turning to see just what it is.

As she sees the bones inside it, her eyes widen in terror, "...Oh fuck..." She mutters lowly as she continues after the four others, not wanting to risk the slime seeing them flee.

One of your fellow crew members had also heard the crash, looking along with you at the blob and it's contents, and causing him to visibly pale. "Oh, shit..." he stammers, turning and breaking into a jog as the creature goes still for a moment, before you hear slithering noises from behind as you move. Glancing back, you can see that the creature is following behind you as it discards it's previous meal, moving surprisingly quickly for a creature with no limbs or musculature that you can detect, though bizarrely, you think you might've seen faces drifting along the surface of it's body, contorted in pain as it chases you towards the stairs.

It's then you feel a stinging sensation on your shoulder, and glance up to see drops of fluid similar to that excreted by the first creature are falling through cracks in the ceiling above, there's more of them coming!

Nellie hears the slithering noises, turning only to see its spitting out the "waste" it left behind. She isn't exactly willing to find out what it'll do to her, since she's partially slime herself.

Her thought is interrupted by part of another ooze dripping down onto her shoulder, causing her to give an audible wince. She keeps doing, despite part of the slime hitting her. Shouldn't be long now, can't stop to bash this slime off of her now.

Especially not when she glances up and sees them coming through.

"Fuck it, run. Don't look back." She 'orders' the others. She has a bad feeling not everyone here will live. Now she isn't even sure if she will herself, with what hit her shoulder.

You climb through the door and into the next hall way as the cieling above gives out, dropping a second slime with a still living, still deteriorating victim struggling inside. He screams at you with a look of stifled agony, as the skin of the man's face seems to almost be slowly boiling away in the creature's body whilst it's own comrade struggles to shove it out of the way before you close the door and Tessa quickly shoves a piece of broken pipe into the door's controls, a barbaric way to lock the door, but it would do.

This time you can see wounded passengers and crew struggling towards the door, some armed with whatever they could get their hands on for weaponry as the ship creaks and groans ominously, and yellowish light sometimes pulses through the observational deck. You can't tell what's outside, in the void from your angle, but it's big, and you have to cross through if you want to get to the escape pods.

"What the hell could be out there..." you hear one of your little gang breathe, staring at the deck's windows. "It's nothing right? Just the light from some kinda supernova off in the distance, right?"

Nellie slides through the doorway as Tessa slams it shut, taking a sigh of relief as she gets on her feet to look at the crowds gathered.

"I don't know what it is...But I kind-of felt something very, very wrong was outside when I vented that beast out the disposal..." She does take a very good glance at what's gathered, wondering just why nobody has gone out there yet.

"...This is not a good choke point. Who designed this ship layout?" She snarls bitterly, waving people to continue ahead, "Whatever it is, just ignore it. Most important part is we get to those pods, then we can use it to get the hell out of dodge, before we too end up like that guy just before."

She doesn't want to admit it, but she herself is actually terrified of what's going on, and does cast a few glances outside the deck briefly, as they dash through it.

"I think the guys who made this colony ship made a lot of pleasure barges and cruise ship type things before this." Tessa theorized, trying to distract herself from the mess behind them as the survivors are galvanized by your movements, taking your uniform (and the fact that you've got a gun) as indicative of some sort of rank as they hurry along, some with children in toe.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Sanity (wisdom) check: 11 vs 13, fail! 4 Sanity damage, crit!


Running through the hall, you can't help but keep seeing things out of the corner of your eye, outside the windows and framed by yellow light, not unlike an eerie pale sun. Unable to resist, you glance fully into the window.

You may find that you wish you hadn't.

Time appears to slow down to the point that you're counting milliseconds, and you feel your leg, foot, toes and ankle muscles agonizingly tightening as they brace to hit the floor in your almost eternal jog, your eyes widen at a glacial pace as you take in the sight of what, at first, appears to be a star that's right next to the ship. The star is enveloped by wheels that appear to be made of flame, with eyes of azure and jade the size of personal vehicles ever watching even as the wheels turn and spin around the star, and in the center of it, outlined by shadows that should not be, a cloaked figure with tendrils for legs sits upon a throne, it's face a tiny black void. Staring into the void, you suddenly find that air cannot reach your lungs, and your mind flashes with imagery of being kilometers beneath the surface of some great ocean, cast in total darkness, with something massive right behind you, but unable to turn, to move or attempt to swim as you feel great jaws open wide behind you and you're sucked backwards towards the maw of some thing that you cannot even begin to understand!

Vaguely, you hear Tessa, but she sounds far, far away.

"What the FUCK IS THAT?!" Nellie collapses onto the floor and curls up, as she bears witness to the display outside. Feeling herself to suddenly be underwater, she tries to look around in confusion, but finds herself unable to.

She then finds her gills to not be working, followed by her dreadful feeling of being sucked into something huge behind her, which causes her to start screaming as she attempts swimming away from the perceived danger. "NONONONONONONONO!" she screams, "TESS, PLEASE BE A FASTER SWIMMER THAN ME HERE!" She tries to add, if the words can even come out of her mouth at this point.

You can feel your body being pierced and torn by great teeth that are as sharp as diamond tipped blades, and more jagged than the roughest of mountains, when everything snaps back to the ship, Tessa is dragging you by the shoulders, sporting a bleeding, cut lip and a black eye, she's being assisted by the older man from before, but the rest of your group appear to be absent in the halls, which are different, leading towards the pods!

"Nell? Are you okay?" Tessa asks, sounding out of breath and wheezing, you notice that she's favoring her side. "You had some kind of seizure and started babbling, Richie and I had to drag you to get this far, but the others..."

"Some gave up on us and ran for it, others were killed." the older man answers, his voice hoarse, you notice that he's bleeding from his scalp, and to your horror, part of his leg appears to just be torn off. "We protected you as best as we could. Sarah, Connor and Jamie didn't make it."

Good god, you must've been out for at least a few minutes then, despite the... vision? Hallucination? Only lasting a few seconds as far as you were aware! Yet, wherever you look, it appears that shadowy figures skulk just on the edges of your vision...

"I looked out of the ship... I.. I don't know what I saw, but I think it's very very bad news."
She pauses, looking between the two, stopping at the old man's leg. The sight seems to snap her out of it. Somewhat.

"What happened to them? Are you okay? You need medical attention with that leg, or you won't mke it either." She says, sounding like she's coming to her senses a bit, but still running somewhat on instinct.

She's clinging to Tessa, spotting her eye.
"Who hurt you..?!" She chimes up, trying to get back on her feet again, if only to get towards the escape pods.
