Boseman High School Shenanigans: Episode 1

Zach can't move, but Zach can feel the sticky, slimy thing crawling on him. It had been inside Belinda, but now it was crawling, slithering towards his face. Over his bound chest, up to his chin -- and into his mouth the creature slowly goes, spreading Zach's lips and jaws apart as it oozes itself in and begins the journey down the boy's throat...

Fred and Lily see it clearly from their vantage point -- once the slug starts sliding into Zach, it goes quickly, and before they can even react the tail of the thing is slipping from view.
OOC:
So that slugging could have taken a couple of rounds, but...

Sounds come to the steam plant from the corridor that leads to it -- the sounds of a larger battle, cries and shouts and smacks and thumps of people fighting. It's close and getting closer, and Unger sneers at Lily and Fred.

Mr. Unger
"It's over!" the man bellows. "Drop your weapons and surrender! We'll make all this painless, and you'll see how much better you can be!"

Deep inside Zach, a battle begins as chemicals are released...
OOC:
Spirit roll to resist being taken over, Zach! Opposed by the slug's Spirit roll...

Tears roll out of Emily's eyes. Tears of utter helplessness and frustration. But somehow she manages to will herself to move. Her body finally responds as she reaches for her pistol and lying on her side, squeezes the trigger.

"Die you fucking bastard!" Her mouth feels like there is cotton in it and her words don't come out quite right.
OOC:
Using last benny.
OOC:
I was looking at my spirit roll when I rolled the raise damage so please ignore. Also, she was shooting at Myers. I typed his name in my head. 😂

It's a wild scene that Emily sees as she rises up, bile and vomit-stained as she is. She has her mom's pistol, and as she raises it, she sees everything before her. Fred, wild-eyed and staggering, still carrying his hammer and chisel. Lily with her sleek ray-pistol and fierce expression. Zach on the floor, his body shifting this way and that slightly like something is inside him. Aaron, Belinda and Mrs. Carlisle down, Myers down -- but his spotted slug squirming in the mess on the floor.

Only Unger stands against them and it's Unger that the girl shoots, straight in the back of the head -- cutting short his diatribe.

And just like that, as Mr. Unger drops and Emily's spent 9mm casing tings on the floor, the trio realizes they have a moment to take a breath -- but only a moment, as something is happening to Zach, there's still one slug squirming on the floor, and the sounds of the approaching fight sound like they are just outside the door. Blood pools wetly beneath Unger, who is lying face-down on the floor, and his head shifts slightly as his parasite starts to make its way out of his body...
OOC:
Whew! Sorry that combat lasted so long! (That was two raises with the damage to Unger; he's down and out!)

So we're out of combat rounds, but there are some key things going on you might need to tend to: Zach, Unger's worm, Myers's worm, the tied up captives who were due to get some worms, the sounds in the hallway outside...

OOC:
I should note that squibbing a slug, like you've done a couple of times now, just takes a second. No roll required out of combat.
Jan 6, 2024 4:11 pm
Emily shakily rises, the smell of bile and vomit making her gag for a moment. A sudden rush of adrenaline gives her the willpower to overcome the stench, and the strength to motivate her weak legs. She quickly scans the room and her eyes settle on the slug exiting Unger's mouth, then her tied-up friends, then to the hallway where she hears a commotion outside it.

"Ok, It's fine, I'm fine. We got this," she mutters to herself in her attempt to stay grounded and in control.

"Ok, I'm going to untie you Zach. You're going to be ok. We'll get that thing out of you. Freddie shake it off will ya for Chrissakes. Someone squash that fucking worm coming out of Unger's mouth."
Jan 6, 2024 4:41 pm
Freddie tries to get a hold of himself, stomping where the bug alien slug seems to be. "Emily? You're okay? We better hurry, a mob is coming and i don't think we can run away this time. "
OOC:
Yay, big roll out of combat to shake Shaken. Smh

Zach stares desperately at Emily when she approaches him and promises to free him. Shoot me! he thinks at her, trying to make her understand. Shoot me with that raygun! He doesn't care about being unparalyzed half as much as he does about getting that slug out of his body.
Of course, Emily doesn't hear his thoughts. But someone else does.

A laser blast rings out, just as Emily crosses to Zach. Having shot the boy, Lily coolly stuffs the pistol into her back pocket for the moment.

"Squash it when it comes out!" she warns, before looking up at the creature stuck in the ceiling.

Are you alright?… her mind asks the thing. Then she looks about at the carnage. Her eyes go for more weapons.

"Everyone grab some of these. Unger was a creep, but we don’t want to shoot anyone else…"
Jan 7, 2024 4:19 am
Freddie will hammer the slug hard, any of them that he can see. "Yeah! Go back to Canada, you bastards!"
Jan 7, 2024 6:57 am
Zach is suddenly blasted, like he requested, but the shot doesn't come from Emily, so it takes him by surprise. And it's so much worse than he expected. His whole body convulses in pain, his head swims like the worst hangover he's ever had, multiplied a dozenfold and concentrated into one horrible moment. It feels like his innards are pressed out of him, not just vomit being pushed up his throat but also a huge, horrible slug that makes him feel like he is choking to death until it finally, eventually, is pushed out by the load of vomit and it ejects out of him and onto the floor. There are tears in his eyes and he just wants to crawl into a corner and pass out, but at least he's free. And seeing Fred finish off that thing that just came out of him is almost satisfying enough to bring a smile to his weak lips. Almost.
He really owes Aaron an apology for putting him through this.

The steam plant is coming into better focus for Lily now as she approaches the center of the big room. Without aliens trying to kill or grossly en-slug-inate her, without the adrenaline pumping quite as hard, she sees the wall of what looks like a bunch of stacked plastic containers. Each about the size of a shoe-box but see-through... and each containing one of the slugs.

There are dozens of them, and they squirm and squeak and mewl as she looks up -- at the figure of the being she somehow knows was called the Warden. Blue-skinned, bald... clearly some other kind of alien. He -- they? Hangs limply, like they are dead or close to it. On the floor lie two more ray-pistols, and a handful of what look like stun-batons. And beside that high-tech gear? Two teens tied together, and paralyzed from that same slug slime. Would-be sacrifices Kelly Unger, and some goofy-looking nerd girl who hasn't been in the movie yet, and who the audience won't remember.

Behind Lily, Zach is recovering, and Fred stomps the fourth worm flat, spraying its grisly, disgusting innards all over the floor as it bursts like a five pound pimple. This makes the assembled walls of worms writhe angrily, but there appears to be nothing they can do about it. The boy is wiping is feet when the door to the plant suddenly opens and someone rushes inside. That same someone looks harried, is panting from running, and slams a heavy bolt into place locking the door.

Zach and Emily are closest, and know immediately who it is.

Rose Tidwell
Rose.

The girl turns, takes in the scene, and her eyes go wide. "Oooooh. Uh oh. Hi everyone. The -- the aliens are right outside. We have to escape!"

"Freeeed" Lily calls to the boy, as if she was summoning him inside for dinner. "You’re going to want to get over here and see this."

And then there’s commotion at the door. Her heart jumps into her throat, and she immediately pulls the pistol.

"Step away from her. I’m going to zap her, just to be safe!" the student journalist announces, aiming for the girl’s chest and squeezing the sleek, metallic trigger of her weapon.
Jan 8, 2024 4:07 pm
Emily untiles Zach and attempts to clean off the vile slime. Helping him up she gets him walking when she hears Freddie make the slug go splat and then none other than Rose bursts into the room.

Emily will ask Rose how many aliens there are if she recovers from Lilly's shot.

Rose Tidwell
"Whoa whoa whoa whoa!" Rose cries, lifting her hands as Lily levels the pistol at her, and as she notes the carnage in the room. Zach is just getting to his feet, helped by Emily, as the girl pleas her case.

"Hold on! Let’s talk about this! It’s me, it’s Rose! Zach! Talk some sense into her!"
OOC:
Not trying to rob Lily of her action, just letting the scene breathe a little. Zach can react verbally before Lily shoots if he wants, but Lily does have The Drop on Rose.
Jan 8, 2024 4:27 pm
Zach is just back up on his feet when Rose is suddenly there. Is this Rose?
He takes the rag from Emily and continues to clean himself with it. His clothes are ruined, his hair is disgusting, but he tries his best to get himself clean, though his best admittedly isn't much. He looks at his little sister. "Rosie, this is going to be really uncomfortable for a moment," he says. "But we have to be sure. I know you understand."
With that, he gives a nod to Lily.
