Alvina was able to crush the head of the zombie in front of her, ending its existence. She was then able to move back only to see a large mutated dog of some kind, had drawn its sights on her, she fired her pistol at it but missed. The dog was chasing after her, though she still had dtime time to get a few more shots off, or get ready for it to charge her. Hakkyou and Zan's move would have worked, however the hound that Zan had knocked down went after Hakkyou, and bit at her, tearing out the seat of what was left of her pants, which then fell to the ground, as she was knocked down onto her stomach. She was now in just her underwear, on her stomach, with the hound behind her, and judging by the growing erection between the dogs legs, it was quite happy with that. This caused her to drop Zan right next to the zombie cluster, which then turned toward him, mouths open. Fortunately for them all, the group of zombies suddenly burst into flames, as Zan's cybernetic implants were able to see a Molotov cocktail thrown in the middle, which then caused the undead to forget him and try to extinguish their flames, but they were...unsuccessful, and BURNED! Officer Silent was standing back, with a large...shovel over his shoulders. The dog that wanted Hakkyou, then turned around to view this new threat, which then brough the shovel down and turned on what was apparently a laser edged blade. The hounds charged at him, and got a successful bite onto the armored leg of Silent, but his teeth couldn't punch through, and this gave Silent the moment he needed to decapitate the hound with his shovel. Silent then charged forward, back in the fight, and with new toys, just in time for the other two hounds to charge at him.
(I was going to let you guys have that, but Hakkyou rolled a 1 while the hound rolled a 10)

Jessi finally stopped crying and broke the hug almost grudgingly. She liked it there but there was a battle going on after all. She looked about the store her little red poof of a bunny tail moved with her bum as she walked visible to the world... and Cassie as she searched for anything of use in the store so she could get back in the fight and do something! She was looking for a battery operated nail gun in particular.

[Zender_Solarheart]

Zan suddenly finds himself flung from Hakkyou's hands as he's sent barreling next to the zombie cluster...well, shit. The best he can do at this point is run for his crowbar, lest he...

(A molotov cocktail?)

Thinking fast, Zan springs off his palms back into an upright posture, watching the zombies burn into heaps of flaming flesh and mold. Glancing back towards where the cocktail came from, he spots his rescuer: Captain Steve Silent, wielding a shovel and a laser blade. Good to see him back. However, now they have two hounds zeroing in on them, and Zan's not about to let Cpt. Silent handle them all by his lonesome...but first...

Zan quickly darts back to where he left his crowbar, picking it back up to re-arm himself. With that done, he heads back into the fray, aiming for the hound at (O5), aiming to hit its belly and flip it over, then deal the final blow on its skull. Those hounds are a lot easier to deal with once you get them on their backs...

The noises had intensified, and Rosalie decided that it would be worth seeing exactly what was going on outside. The temperature had gone up outside, so something had probably gone wrong. Getting up from her hiding spot, she swiftly made her way to the enterance of the store and glanced outside, noticing several people facing off against hounds and... others. Also, there was a fire. Source of heat - identified. Did they start it? Possibly. Sprinklers didn't seem to be working.

Drawing her sward, she leaned out of the door and shouted to the group of people. "Quickly! In here! There is a higher chance of survival!"

[shinox23]

(Holy shit, I had got a 1? XDD My luck has went to hell!!! LOL)

Hakkyou was surprised to see Officer Silent with a shovel, guess it may be his preferred type of weaponry, but she was shocked to see a Molotov cocktail be thrown so close, she jumped back like the wind and made sure her tail didn't get burned "Good lord man! Were you working on making those this whole time??" Her heartbeat rose again to a panicking rate, but then cooled down after she took a deep breath, ok, I think it may be a good idea to toss a few more zom-bags into the fire... to dispose of them quickly I mean..." She shifted her else a little, knowing full-well she liked to burn things every once in a while, this being one of those times "Hey, you got any more of those? they could be useful later" Her eyes got big as she looked at Silent with a very surprising smile, her eyes gleaming a little

Officer Silent just smiled at the two hounds charging at him. Oh, the perks of being in a full suit of bulletproof armor. He gave out a distinct roar to the hounds and moved his body into a threatening manner, wich brought them both to him, teeth bared. He used the laser edged shovel (one object, Zen) to slice the top of the first hounds head off, the second moved past and bit onto his leg. There was a distinct wining sound and a small chipping sound as the teeth of the dog broke under the force of the bite, before the shovel came down and decapitated it. Silent then tossed Zan the shovel and told him.
"There's a small section of the handle you twist to turn the blade off and on. It's designed like a laser edged sword, it just looks like a shovel to make it easier to smuggle. There is an actual sword back in that store as well, but you gotta help me move the cash registers counter to get it. As for the cocktails, there's a whole bag of 'em in there. Now, let's finish these guys off."
With that the group began the single handed elimination of the remaining undead. As the hounds were defeated except for the one that Alvina would soon shoot in the eye, the rest of the zombies were quickly eliminated. This also allowed Jessi and Cassie time to find no battery operated nail guns, but Jessi did find a pistol underneath the cash register. It was a projectile weapon, as of now she had the full ten rounds in the gun and another nine in the clip that was sitting beside it. Cassie was now in possession of her large farming tool. Which was a small pole-arm with a large blade at the end, perfect for stabbing or slashing limbs off. Alvina dispatched a few more undead, none of them posing a real challenge. Though she was now down to six rounds in her gun and two more speed loads, limiting her to eighteen bullets total. Rosalie watched as a man in security armor lead the group to the elimination of the rest of the undead. He payed her no attention, though he did look directly at her, so she knew he had seen her, and her computer was able to recognize his face shield as a tactical display.
As the last of the undead were cleared out of the mall Dash came running out of the pharmacy with a small object in his mouth, unfortunately being pursued by three zombies. All three were eliminated, without any more clothes tearing. As Hakkyou took the object Dash offered her she would discover it to be a phial of nanobots, that she could use to recharge her nano-bot generator, which had only enough power left to make two more objects of clothing. The new phial had enough for her to make another five, which would be all of a top, or bottoms, and most of the other. Unfortunately though, the bots were for demolition purposes, so here generator would need a while to reprogram them.
Zan now found himself in possession of a shovel, made out of an Adamantium based alloy, with a laser tipped blade. As he inspected the new weapon he would realize it was quite destructive, just camouflaged to look normal. The ingenuity of smugglers at work. He could use the blade of the shovel for stabbing, hacking, slashing, or the flat of the blade as a blunt weapon. Though as of now he had to help Silent move a heavy as hell counter top so he could get a sword from underneath it.
Silent was quite happy when the counter top was finally removed as it revealed a sword underneath, fashioned to look like a roman Gladius, as well as two pistols. To be specific, the pistols were two Handcannons, pistols designed off old world anti-tank weapons. Silent picked them both up and made some adjustments to the computer on his left arm, which caused the armor to adjust to the force of the pistols, so that when he fired, the guns wouldn't break his wrists. He then laid down his laser pistol and his SMG, and told Zan
"Pick one, Hakkyou gets the other, then we gotta secure this mall so we can hopefully find more stuff. The smugglers use this mall quite frequently, which means all kinds of goodies should be just waiting for us."

All undead are eliminated on the main floor. You guys can now search the stores for loot, if you so desire, or do whatever else you want.

There are two fast food stores, a Random Crap "R" Us store, a hardware store, an art store, a pharmacy, a womens' lingerie store, a clothing store, and a GAMESTOP! The boss battle, and end of this chapter will occur once people are ready.

[daxtinator396]

Jessi was about to give up looking and leave when they had found the pistol with a full clip and another next to it! She ran over to it with glee clicking the safety on again just to be sure and putting the gun and the spare clip in the little pouch in front of her apron. She peeked outside as she heard no sounds of battle anymore. Without her hat she could hear quite well again and when she saw no fighting and signs of looting she dragged Cassie towards the lingerie store first with a slight smile. They had joked about this before and she was going to give her abit of a show before they went to the clothing store and left with bags of clothes. As tehy reached the store they quickly went tto the back of the store to the changing room as she grabbed things off the shelf aklong the way,"Cassieee what shall i try on first?" She said teasingly as she swayed her hips. She was still shy but she wanted to make Cassie smile and she was being brave for her.

[shinox23]

Seeing as the fighting has stopped, Hakkyou still felt her blood pulse at crazy speeds, Ak'Vit would feel it in her pants about this feeling as Hakkyou took her by the hand and went into the clothing store, calling Dash over with them while grabbing a few bra's, panties, pants, shirts, everything being eaten by her nanobots to use as minerals to repair or strengthen her attire, but while doing all of this she made sure they were in the back of the store and out of sight "Ak'Vit... Don't panic, I just need you to be with me right now..." Her breathing stayed at a fast pace as she kissed Ak'Vit on the lips, keeping her close "I need it... Either I do you, or you do me... Or you and Dash do me... Or Dash and I do you... I just need it..."

[Zender_Solarheart]

Zan's honestly surprised at the ingenious disguise of the halberd-like shovel, as well as its tactical versatility. Of course, he has to help Silent move a register station to access another weapon, so he heads off to do that. If nothing else, he can use his new "toy" to loosen any parts of the counter-top that may need it...

(yeah, couldn't think of much to post for this one, sorry...)

[berserkerhorn]

Cassie gasps as she is dragged in to the lingerie store. "Wait! Where are we?!" Cassie says before realizing where they are heading. She laughs as Jessi takes pieces of clothing off of the shelves. "Oh, I don't know... Choose one that'll make both of us feel comfortable..." Cassie says. She looks around at the lingerie shop deciding what she herself wouls wear.

(Have fun choosing your clothing Dax ;D I know I will)

(Sorry... I got caught up gming)

[KnightVanilla]

Running up to the Pharmacy to pick up the pills the medic recommended she made it quick to pack a them and take some within the moment. Heading straight to the clothing store got the exact clothing that she wore before all this started and packed some extra cloths. Final two stops were Random crap r us and the hardware store. Maybe Alvina could get creative and create a little something for the others to use.

[Sortaix]

Mall:

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

The counter top Zan and Silent moved was unpleasantly heavy, but rewarding. Zan now has the opportunity to pick up either a laser pistol or a laser SMG. The pistol has twenty shots total and is not as powerful as the SMG, though with his shovel he may not need a lot of firepower. Silent took his new toys and set out in the middle of the mall, resting as well as checking to make sure all the dead guys were actually dead, and staying dead. Alvina found in the random store, a pack of spare batteries that she could use with the flashlight she found as well. She ended up with enough room in her pack to put in two more whole outfits, and when she went to the hardware store, she found enough tools for her to tackle almost any engineering job she came across, though she found no suitable weapons. Cassie and Jessi would find the store to contain any and all types of lingerie, normal, sexy, skimpy, revealing. It was a small playground for them

(I think Alchemist dropped out oft his RP, Shin.)

[daxtinator396]

Jessi quickly went into a changing stall leaving it half open for Cassie to see and let the Apron slide down around her ankles slowly and she kicked it out the door and grabbimg a pair of thin black panties she slipped them on and a little pink bow was skillfully placed over her crotch like a present. She then put on a matching bra and stepped her little cotton ball tail having a convenient slit for it to poke out through. Jessi walked over seductively to Cassie with a frisky smile and said,"I got you a present! Wanna open it?"

[Gorbaz]

Watching everyone disperse after the fight, Rosalie made mental notes on them as best she could as they went their seperate ways in order to scavange. They hadn't heard her should out to them earlier, and she needed to figure ot why. Perhaps her voice module was malfunctioning? No, that couldn't be it, as she had heard herself. Perhaps they were too caught up to notice? Far more likley.

After standing in the doorway for a few moments and considering all this, she eventually turned around and headed back into the shop in order to do more scavenging. Perhaps there was something else in there that she could use that she hadn't spotted the first time around?

[Sortaix]

Mall: (do whatever you want, scavenge stores, or just say the word and we can move onto the boss fight)

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Little else happened though Rosalie did scavenge the store she was in, to find a shotgun, only to discover it was actually a toy that looked real. She was a little disappointed at the find, so she placed it on the counter next to the sci-fi video game looking model shotgun. Though as she placed the toy down she bumped the other toy, causing it to hit the floor rather loudly, her audio sensors picking up the sound of heavy metal. This caused her to investigate further to find the "model" was actually a cleverly disguised, fully functional shotgun, and after a little more investigating she found a box of shells behind the counter. Officer Silent then walked in on her as she was readying her new weapon.
"Well, hello there, Miss. I am Security Officer Steve Silent. I am here in this mall with a few more survivors of this mess, we have a plan to get off this station and to safety, would you like to come with us?"
Officer Silent asked her, as he extended his arm in a greeting.

[Zender_Solarheart]

Zan ponders over his choice of a beam pistol or SMG. The former has the advantage in accuracy, while the latter's strong point is firepower. His cleverly-designed shovel-ish weapon - which he has mentally nicknamed "Ace of Spades," after a code-name his friend Greg liked to use - gives him a considerable level of power at close range, and while the pistol does lose out to the SMG on that category, it can profit more from his high-level reflexes, especially if he has to kick in the XL System. So, all things considered, he takes the beam pistol, letting Officer Silent have the SMG; chances are, he'll need it more between the two of them.

He then heads over to where Officer Silent went (Random Crap R' Us, I'm assuming), and spots a new survivor...and wow...she's beautiful! Zan does his best to maintain his composure, though it takes a lot of self-control just to keep his jaw from dropping faster than a phone call in a dead zone.

(Keep it cool, Z-Man...think about other things...uhh...Waffles are tasty...French Toast Crunch needs a comeback...Michael Bay needs a therapist...dammit, I'm running out of ideas already...)

[shinox23]

Hakkyou just sits down in the back of the store and relaxes by herself after realizing that Ak'Vit was no-where in sight, she took this time to try and calm herself down from the recent overdrive she kicked into, still feeding her nanobots more materials to help her clothing last longer and get tougher "Great... Now I'm hallucinating... At least we're still ok... Right Dash?" She pets him as she picks up some metal, her nanobots eating it up in nearly no time at all, making sure her bot's systems were still operational even under current conditions "This seems like a good moment to see what tech is hiding in here as any other time..." She starts to push the cash register over to see what's hidden underneath it, maybe something she can use later on

[Gorbaz]

Amazing! The percentage chance of finding a fully-working and well disguised firearm in what is, for all intents and purposes a pawn shop, were slim. But, there it was. Hefting the shotgun, Rosalie tested it for weight while pocketing the box of shells. Probably around enough ammo for 8 shots, she estimated, but wasn't paying full attention to the amounts. Her attention was drawn away from her find when a man waked in wearing a security outfit and introduces himself, followed shortly after by another male who seemed to forget what he was doing apon entering the store and... looking at her.

Reaching out, she took hold of Officer Silent's hand and gave it a shake, being careful not to accidently crush it in her mechanical hands. "Greetings, Officer Silent" she said in a calm tone. "If you have a plan of action for exscaping this location, then I would be happy to accompany and assist as best as I am able"

[Sortaix]

Mall: (Here comes the boss fight)

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Officer Silent shook the womans hand in return and informed her.
"Well, we have a plan to get out of here and avoid whoever did this. Apparently this entire catastrophe was done on purpose, so be aware of that. All civilian evacuation vessels were destroyed upon leaving. Our enemies are quite ruthless. Oh, and you didn't tell me your name, by the way."
During this time, Hakkyou was unable to find any weapons, though she did find a small medkit. Her nanobots had now eaten enough material for her clothes to fully take shape and she now had them at full capacity, giving her enough for two extra full outfits, should the need arise.
It was at this time that a large and loud crashing sound could be heard, which caused Silent to rush out and investigate. Upon turning the corner, he saw an extremely unexpected sight. On the ground were the remnants of two large doors and standing atop them were two hounds, each the size of a horse, and with three heads.
One of them walked forward snarling and growling at Silent, issuing its challenge. Silent however, responded in an unusual way, for here he saw a creature, straight from the fairy tales and legends of his ancient ancestors. He then activated his shield and sword, and raised them both to ready. The Cerberus watching him growled even louder in response, the spittle flying from it's bloodthirsty lips and its tongues slid over its teeth, already regarding him as a tasty morsel.
Silent saw this reaction from this monster and he felt fear as anyone would, but courage is the ability to put fear aside, not the absence of it. He then took a step forward now saying a small battle prayer he had learned reading of his ancestors. While he did not truly believe, the prayer was that of a warrior and it always brought him comfort before battle. He said it before every battle to remind him of his legacy of his duty. He then walked forward to the monster, now seeing a chance for battle and a worthy opponent. These two now going to repeat the age old question, from ages long past.
"Who shall win, the warrior or the monster?"
Silent trudged forward blade in hand.
"Lo, there do I see my father.
Lo, there do I see my mother,
And my sisters and my brothers.
Lo, there do I see the line of my people,
Back to the beginning.
Lo, they do call me,
They bid me take my place among them,
In the halls of Valhalla!
Where the brave shall live forever!"
At that moment when the prayer was said, these two titans of death and destruction charged forward tooth and claw against sword and shield,battling in a way to make the monsters and warriors of old, proud.
The other creature however, just gave the two an "Are you serious?" look, then turned to the other survivors. It regarded Zan with a look of "Mmmm, tasty." but, upon seeing one of the women, it stopped, and the tip of a large red erection, began to peek out of it's sheath. The Cerberus then gave her a lick of the lips before crouching low and charging forward intent, not on battle but on the prize. It's intentions for her, now obviously clear.

(All players, please check the OOC.)

[KnightVanilla]

Watching as Officer silent was about to face the great beast alone she noticed only a little bit later that one of the creatures was licking its lips at her. Spotting its large erection as it charged her she aimed her gun straight at it. Firing all six rounds hoping for them to hit the creature. Her robotic arm ready to give it a good punch if it got too close to her, however the way it stared at her just wanted to make her run for her life she. Whatever would happen it happened, she would do her best to stand her ground against this beast just as Silent was facing something more fearsome.
