Murder City: Extinction [Started/Accepting/Co-Hosted by Hotaru987] IC

Following Kira, they made it to the room above, and they sat down. Before Saranesi could introduce herself, the creepy masked guy appeared on a screen. Saranesi narrowed her eyes. U.N.Owen had such a crude sense of humor, she hardly wanted to know what would come next.
U.N.Owen started rambling off about some experimental game, but Saranesi noticed only one thing.
"A year?!"
Saranesi winced at the sound of her own cry. She'd missed a whole year of life. She'd been stark naked in a tube for a year. The mere concept slapped her in the face like a wet fish.
A counter appeared on the screen, counting down from five minutes. She leapt to her feet quickly, following the others out the door, to find themselves in a hallway. The guy called Leon ran to the final exit, flinging the door open. Even from her point, she could see the stopped timer.
[i]Nothing is that simple, is it?[/i]
Following the others into the room, she found that some of them were already fighting against enemies. It had been a trap, the final exit.
Some leapt quickly into action. Cries echoed down the hallway, resonating back eerily. It created an effect of despair, which made Saranesi want to punch Owen in the face. So hard.
Axes seemed to fly across the room as the main adversary, a humanoid figure with a black leather mask, threw his axes at everyone within his reach. Saranesi ducked sharply as an axe flew towards her head, hearing it thud solidly into the wall behind them.
Muttering under her breath, she wriggled the fingers on her right hand. The shadows around her intensified, as if a bright light was shining on her. They started moving oddly, like Saranesi was falling to pieces. After a mere moment, Saranesi held a shadowy sword in her hand, ready to do battle.
Holding her breath, she ducked down low and swiped at the Executioner's legs with her sword. Around her, some threw his axes back at him, whilst others fired guns at various parts of his body.

After sitting down the tv suddenly came on and the man from before appeared. It appeared that he was the one who sent out the letters of invitation, but the thing that struck Izzy as strange was that he not only said detectives but criminals as well. [i]'What does he mean by that?....Only half of us was at the place where I was..Does that mean...The others are actually criminals?' [/i]Izzy thought as she glanced at the ones who she didn't see yesterday-well- a year ago. When she saw the video of a man implanting a chip in her head she went pale, and her hand flew to her mouth. That was just disgusting. He then said that they only had five minutes to escape this place before they were killed by more gas. However They had to get through a bunch of ‘games’. A door opened up and Leon was the first to go through. Izzy also followed and saw three pathways titled with; Run, jump and kill. “Charming.” She mumbled. Izzy was about to use her ability but Leon closed his eyes and went still. The thing that caught her attention was the emotion coming from him. It was a feeling of detachment and a void of nothing. It wasn’t like that Kira girl before because at that time there was no emotions at all.
Suddenly an orb of light came out of Leon and went down to the middle path.

Izzy figured that he knew what he was doing so she him down the path, only to stop short when she saw the ax coming for Leon. ”W-what the hell!?” She exclaimed as the others started coming into the room as well, only to see what she and Leon also saw. A huge executioner looking man, more than ready to kill them. Izzy instantly moved back, trying to stay away from the fighting. Her powers didn’t have anything to do with fighting, so if she didn’t have her gun then she was pretty much defenseless. Not only that, but with everyone in here being surprised, annoyed, and just plan scared or nervous due to their opponent she was on an emotional high. Sometimes she wasn’t sure whether her powers were a gift or just a hindrance.

From behind her she noticed Rai over by a dresser, which was soon destroyed by an axe tossed by the executioner, and items fell out. It was a sword and some bullets. Now if only she had her gun with her. Rei seemed to be content with his findings and went to join the fight, with Sarensei doing the same. Izzy, however, noticed something else within the rubble of the desk. She made her way over, hugging the wall as to stay out of everyone else’s way. “What’s this?” She mumbled picking up the paper. Looking closely at it, it seemed to be a torn piece of paper. There was writing on it. Izzy squinted to read it. “The….Daily…” She realized that the rest of the sentence was on the missing pages…but maybe…

She put the paper on the ground, and took off one of her gloves. With a deep breath she grabbed it and she was assaulted by many images. She could see the page when it was whole, but she couldn’t make out the rest of the riddle on it. She did see it being torn into three separate pieces. Izzy suddenly came back to reality, snatching he hand away from the paper and leaning slightly on the wall due to her feeling of dizziness. She got the sense of importance from this piece of paper. Once they got finished killing that thing, she would tell them about it.

Kira, on the other hand, was leaning on the wall of the hallway right before entering the room where everyone was gathering. [color=#ff3366]“Do you guys think we should go in there? It looks pretty dangerous. Perhaps Sena would be best for this.” [/color]Kira giggled slightly,[color=#ff3366] “I know you would rather fight Rojo, but that man said that there were detectives here as well. They may realize who we are if you come out, since it is actually your name that is associated with us. The others and I are pretty much safe.”[/color]

Kira rolled her eyes, [color=#ff3366]“Oh, don’t start that Rojo. You’ll get your chance don’t worry. So Sena, should we help them? If we stay here he may not even notice us.” [/color]Kira waited in silence for a while before giggling quietly again, [color=#ff3366]“I should have expected that answer from you. Then I guess we’ll just stay here.”[/color]

Leon got up as he looked at the brute that was dead at their feet, cold as a rock and just as still. Leon looked around and decided he'd examine the area a bit when he found somehting on the wall, A map of the office, [color=#800080]"Bueno... Guys!"[/color] He shouted as he removed the pins from the map that kept it on the wall and took it down. He walked over to everyone who was rather gathered in one area, [color=#800080]"Check this out."[/color] Leon then unrolled the map to show the first floor, the one they were on, which was the top half of the map, and the second floor, which was the bottom.

He examined the map quickly, [color=#800080]"There are three X's... and one that shows where the map was... so we are around the Secretary desk... That one X behind the bathrooms...Rai, that's where the drawer was, where you found your blade no?" [/color]He asked as he looked back at the map. He then noticed Izzy with a note, [color=#800080]"Hmm... Look at the map of the second floor, it says note... and what are all those skulls?"[/color] He asked himself, glaring back at the note Izzy had, [color=#800080]"There's obviously more to it... I think we should focus on finding the otehr peices of the note, and the other X's."[/color] Leon then began to examine the burned map diligently. He then looked at the second floor, [color=#800080]"I think... I think those skuls require more... investigation... After seeing what attacked us I could only suspect there would be more of them waiting on the floor above-"[/color] suddenly a piece of the cieling fell and ripped the map out of Leon's hands. He moved the piece aside and picked up the map to reveal a small note written in one of the non-burned corners, on the back. It was folded over. [color=#800080]"Blade... Key... Gas... What does that...." [/color]he began to question.


[color=#ff0000][i]Little did they realize that above them lied a bundle of traps and devices on the second floor that could get them all killed... A giant man made wall blocks the safe bath to the room 221... And one note that Izzy held in her hand.. was the key to their escape...[/i][/color]

Luckily it didn't take long for the executioner to go down, and once it did Leon instantly got to work examining the room. While doing so he found a map and began to examine it. Izzy looked at it over Leon's shoulder, quickly memorizing it just in case. Leon noticed the note in her hands and pointed out the area on the map marked 'note'. There other parts of the map marked with 'x's and skulls. Whatever those skulls meant, Izzy was sure that she didn't want to know. Suddenly a piece of the ceiling fell on the map, ripping it out of Leon's hands. Though it was surprising it didn't hurt anyone. Leon removed the chunk of rock and found something extra written on it; Gas, key and blade. It was just as confusing as everything else that was going on.

"Oh, before I forget," Izzy started, "This note I have in my hands. I don't exactly know what part it has to play but I think it's important. I saw it being torn into three pieces, and there are words written on it. I think they were separated for a reason, and that reason might be a key element to getting us out of here." She looked at the map Leon was holding, "So what should we do now? We can't stay in this room forever. We need to figure out how to get out of here."

[color=#ff3366]"To be honest I don't really care, as long as I get to be with Saranesi."[/color] Kira exclaimed with glee and grabbed Saranesi's hand. [color=#ff3366]"Is this ok with you? I want to be best friends with you.[/color]" Even though Kira was smiling there seemed to be something a bit off with her. Almost as if she was trying to monopolize Saranesi, whom she had taken an initial liking too.
