A scene opens up with TME waiting for Atomsk to show up till he hears deep a voice.
"Ladies and Gentlemen… the story you're about to hear is true only the name's been changed to protect the innocent."
TME though looks at Atomsk, who just shows up.
"Considering that humanity hasn't gotten that far into space travel, best we got is to the moon and stuff for actual travel… pretty sure this is either some foreboding future or one that is just horror filled… people if this is a true story… we humans as a race are royally boned…" TME said while he shook his head.
"Eh… maybe… but depending on what's happening now… we're almost boned. Better to live life to the fullest." Atomsk said.
"Yeah… thankfully you and I should be long gone way before Necromorphs come and get the human race, may as well get our decendents or at least help people with surviving the necromorph horde… anyway just to check, I got the Survival Horror Network Youtube video pulled up, you said it was 2 hours and 38 minutes in right?" TME asked while he rubs his chin as he looks at the youtube video channel they were using… that was a shout out to the youtube channel since they played good longplays of horror games.
"Yes, that would be when the hero is entering the mining deck." Atomsk said.
"Right… last I checked, Emerald borrowed Maite's Rig so that he could buy his own and stuff, the others are resting while Squishy Jr keeps watch over the ladies in the Tram so they can rest." TME said when he looks up last chapter as well and saw that Emerald was the only one to get off the tram to look for Hammond.
"Yeah and I recall that Cedric was still with the rest of the group even though it wasn't shown." Atomsk said.
"May have to check but didn't the group split with Cedric getting Azure, Leonel, Onyx I think?... and Lydia?... again need to look things up but didn't the group split in two because of various issues?... either way says here Emerald is the only one who went to mining for Hammond and other reasons, maybe he could meet up with others later as the chapter goes on… still got anything else to say before we end the intro?" TME said while he looks at Atomsk.
"Hmmm… nope. I'm good." Atomsk said.
"Alright, if we're good on the video and have it in the mining area, we are good… however after the Intro I need to leave in a bit so I'll be clocking out early so mind doing me a favor man and double check the time and reread the last few chapters so that when I'm back, if I'm good for it though, we can start and at a good pace?... I just want to cover some bases given how longs its been since we last did DSML 1 here." TME said while he pats Atomsk on the back and gave him a look that he trusted Atomsk with this request.
"Alright. Though we haven't worked on this for a full year just to let you know." Atomsk said.
"Yeah… thats why I'm asking you to reread just the last couple chapters and double check the plot VS the video we are using to make sure we didn't over shoot or under shoot anything, we have the time above so if were good, we can just go back to 2 hours and 38 minutes into the video from the Survivial horror Network and resume from there, simple right?" TME said when he gave the readers a thumbs up at the shout out to the video again.
"Right." Atomsk said as he picks up the script.
"Good… anyway I'll be going in about… 9 minutes or so, so I'll be getting ready for that eye doctor appointment, good luck on your end and dear readers, by the time you read this, may not make much sense but Atomsk and I may be delayed if my eye lid is healing and stuff, may not be having issues, may have issues, point is, enjoy the story and if Atomsk and I are a bit delayed, blame me for the eyelid… anyway… onto our long overdue space themed sexual horror show galore… Atomsk want to do the honors of going into the story or should I?" TME said while he looks at Atomsk.
"Nah, I'll handle this." Atomsk said.
"Great, I'll be going now so good luck man." TME said as he opened a portal and jumped through it and it shut leaving Atomsk alone.
"Well folks. It's just me. So in last two chaps, Cedric was finally getting his rocks off as he slept with Azure, Onyx and Leonel while Rick and Lydia kept watch and it seems Cedric got a bit dominating with the ladies. Then Emerald was having his own fun with Maite, Lavender, Lillum and Isabelle with Squishy Jr as he fucked a few ladies. Funny enough, Maite confessed to Emerald before getting off the train. Hard to say who to focus on now." Atomsk said with a thoughtful look.
"Hmmm… May as well wing it." Atomsk said before the scene fades to black before shifting to Emerald's side…
Ishimura/ Emerald/ Mining Deck
The scene focus on Emerald as he walk through the mining deck while searching for Hammond.
When he didn't see him anywhere on the landing deck for the Tram, he looks around for a moment and grins when he saw a shop… he went to use a side panel to pay for a RIG and after he used some of Maite's cash to get a RIG for his rank… he used his tentacle arm form to make an arm closest to his old size as he moved to get in the equipper… a moment later Emerald was pulled back to the machine and after a number of minutes after the doors close, he was clad in a Soldier RIG fitted for his body, though thanks to a customized fit, he had the arm where the Necromorph arm was unclothed so the RIG wouldn't get in the way… thanks to this after he exits the shop, he grins as his helmet felled away so he could look at his arm though he was surprised when Kendra popped up on his RIG's holographic projector.
"Emerald?... how did you get a RIG?... know what nevermind… this helps… This may be our last chance of getting out of here. There's an asteroid loaded in the mining bay waiting to be cracked. If you attach the SOS beacon away from the Ishimura… we can make a clean broadcast. You can find the beacon on the sub deck in the control room." Kendra said.
"Something tells me that it won't be that easy, any chance I need some things near it to get to the beacon or something?" Emerald asked as he moved to set Maite's RIG near the shop so Maite could equip her gear when she comes to after Emerald used a little more cash to get a guiding becon installed in his RIG so he would know where to go if people asked him to get things here.
"Let's see… damn… the door is locked. Seems there's a key somewhere on this deck. I could say easy but… well knowing our luck… don't know how much longer I can take this." Kendra said.
Emerald chuckles when he saw Kendra was about to end the call.
"Well either way, if we run into one another I don't mind helping you relax and stuff, for now should get that access key so wish me luck Kendra." Emerald said while he winked at the navigator of the group on screen.
Kendra lightly blushes.
"Y-Yeah… good luck." She said before ending the call.
Emerald chuckles again as he look down the path he needs to go.
"Given how much time passed… wonder what Cedric and the others are doing right now." Emerald said as he walked down the path to where the guiding light let him towards as the scene went to Cedric and the others.
Cedric, Azure, Leonel and Onyx
The scene focuses on Cedric as he continues to sleep while unknowingly holding Azure and Onyx by his side.
Azure and surprisingly Onyx were cuddling to Cedric while Leonel who woke after sleeping a bit looks amused when she saw how Onyx seemed pretty content while she rests against the soldier's body.
'Awww… that's cute.' Leonel thought before being mischievous.
"Wake up sleepyheads!" She said.
This made the trio jolt from their sleep while Azure yawns when she sat up.
"H-Hey… how long were we sleeping?" Azure said since she didn't have a clock on her.
"Oh about 4 hours." Leonel said as Cedric yawned.
"S-Seriously… damn." He said.
"Well after all we did, can't blame you for sleeping that long… you three sure did sleep contently." Leonel said while she looks amused as Onyx who sat up blushed when she couldn't argue against that.
Cedric did blush as well.
"Well… we were rough." He said.
"Well thankfully I had some of Lillum's grunts get us some food and stuff so we can eat and refuel before we leave the room, check it out." Leonel said when she points at a table with plenty of food on it that looked freshly cooked since there was plenty of eats that steamed and stuff and smelled good.
The aroma was good.
"Nice. Starving like crazy." Cedric said as he got up and went to get food while forgetting that he was still naked.
Leonel chuckles when she saw this, she and the others like Azure and Onyx were nude but Leonel was going like that already and Onyx was similar and because of that she didn't say much as Azure got up and went to get a bite to eat and were stuffing their faces since this could be their last meal if they were not careful.
Cedric was in the same boat as Onyx was enjoying hers.
During the meal, Cedric looks at the trio.
"I will say, I sex with you three was best I had since… well you know." He said while trying to not bring up his past a bit.
Azure looks at Cedric and chuckles a little.
"Thanks, hopefully we can have more fun later once we try and work our way to the others, we may as well find an alternate route if the Tram isn't back, knowing how damaged the ship was, wouldn't be surprised if the others have to walk some of the way to the mining area." Azure said while Leonel looks at her.
"Actually, thanks to me sending some recon, after a minion talked with… Squishy Jr. that Emerald calls him… Emerald left the group alone after a fun time in the tram with the ladies there after tuckering them out… he is going to find something called an SOS becon with Kendra's aid and what not… so we could call the Tram back but that would give Emerald no real allies besides minions he can call from the walls… he also used Maite's RIG to get some cash to buy his own RIG and guiding becon so he won't get lost… after you eat, bathe in a nearby bathroom, and get ready, we can leave, I know an alternate way to the mining area, would take time but faster than waiting for Emerald's group to wake up since they may take longer than four hours like you guys have." Leonel said while she crossed her arms.
"Interesting then we better get to it." Cedric said.
Azure nods before she and Cedric worked to eat more till they were full… after some time to digest their meals and after using the restroom one at a time to relief themselves and shower thanks to working water, After Cedric and Azure got dressed, the group left the room to meet up with Rick and Lydia and thankfully Rick was fully recovered from what happened to him last time thanks to the gas and Lydia smiles when she saw the group.
"Everyone!... your back finally… after an number of hours of leaving me alone to watch Rick… guy started to tell so many jokes and stuff after he woke… funny… but got old when he started to use old material." Lydia said when she looks at the group with a cute pout on her face.
"It wasn't that bad." Rick said as Cedric sweatdrops.
"Not to my laundry list. Sorry you had to go through that Lydia."
"Well hopefully when we get back to Emerald and the others, we can work to make things work better in getting you some fun for keeping an eye on Rick." Azure said when she grins at the lamia woman.
Lydia grins.
"I like the sound of that." She said before smirking.
"Bet you guys had a good time with Mr. Sargent here." She said.
Cedric blushed while he rubs his head as Leonel smirks.
"Oh yeah, he had fun with all of us… Onyx here even cuddled with Cedric in her sleep." Leonel said when she nudged Onyx a few times.
Onyx blushes as Lydia grins teasingly.
"Oh ho… looks like someone is warming up to Cedric."
Onyx blushed more as Leonel giggles.
"Easy there… for now we should get going if Rick can move and Cedric and Rick get some weapons so they can get armed… same with Azure if she doesn't want to use her transforming weapon." Leonel said while Azure looks at a nearby shop.
"May as well rearm and reload weapons with ammo." Azure said when she moved to get ready leaving the group alone for a moment.
"With you there." Rick said as he went to get ammo though Cedric looks at Onyx.
"I really did enjoy that moment with you, Onyx. I can understand if there's no feelings between us." He said.
Onyx blushed more as she couldn't argue against this and after Azure returned, Cedric went to get restocked on things so he could be ready for anything while he examined the weapons he could buy with his credits he had.
Though as that happened, Leonel felt like being Cupid.
"He may mean well but… I think you're starting to like him."
Onyx blusher more and she tried to hit Leonel and she jumped back with some speed as she chuckles when she saw the female Dragoon blushing up a storm.
"Hehe, oh relax, not trying to get under your skin… pretty sure Cedric did that when he gave you a good time with him pleasing that pussy." Leonel teased while Onyx blushed more… though Leonel got hit on the back of her head by Azure as she gave Leonel a half lidded look.
"Leonel… please stop trying to mess with Onyx, she was transformed against her will so even if she is developing a crush, don't tease her since she is not the best with dealing with males." Azure said while she looks fearlessly at the Royal Guarded Necromorph woman.
"Ah… okay sorry. Just trying to help two people stay hooked up if you get my meaning… hehe… I mean I know you want to date him after what he did." Leonel teased while rubbing her head.
"True, and if we live, don't mind going on a few dates with Cedric… and possibly Onyx since I've seen her staring at my ass… not straight so don't mind giving her some romance if she wants…. That is IF she wants it… not going to rush." Azure said when she smirks at Leonel.
Leonel chuckles.
"Okay then. But… if Cedric doesn't claim you right away… may have a shot at you." She said with a wink though jolts when she heard this.
"We'll see about that."
The group looks over to see Cedric approaching as Cedric passed Onyx a Rig part so she could use a guiding becon.
"Hey Cedric, how was the restocking?" Azure asked while she had a hand on her hip.
"Pretty good. Got what I needed after Rick got his ammo. Was even able to get a RIG for Onyx." Cedric said.
"Or part of one… looks like its the guiding part of the RIG… making sure she can locate us if we get split up?" Leonel said when she saw the attachment on Onyx's hand.
"Yes, can't be too careful with what's been happening. But as God is my witness… I ain't letting no Necromorph get close to you all if they have an intent to attack." Cedric said with a serious look though the trio, follow by Lydia that was still there saw Cedric's eyes give a one second flash of red before back to normal.
Many who saw that, pretty much assumed Cedric's berserk side was getting to him and Azure placed a hand on Cedric's back.
"Easy Cedric… easy… with all of us here I doubt many will attack us and with Leonel's group near us, heard many things scuttling around us… most likely a few Necromorph guards under your control?" Azure said when she looks around a bit to places that have an occasional scuttle sound.
"Oh yeah. They'll spring into action if something happens." Leonel said while grinning.
"Well still… not gonna drop my guard for a second." Cedric said.
"Well don't worry, unless they are fully braindead, they won't try and force themselves on us… unless we let them during a break time and stuff… same with the females around who seem interested in you Cedy." Leonel said when she smirks at the women mainly while looking amused at Cedric.
Cedric blushes as did Onyx while Lydia was amused.
"R-Right. Better reach Emerald's group then. Hopefully he finds Hammond." Cedric said.
"Yeah… lets go along the shortcut to the mining area." Leonel said as a Dragoon opened a large panel nearby.
"Milady… we managed to locate our King, he working well into the mining area, we managed to find an intact route to the Mining area that you requested." The Dragoon said as he poked his head out of a hole in the wall though Onyx comically clocked him on the maw making him crash to the ground with a groan a moment later as Leonel stopped Onyx from sending another hit.
"Easy there!... this is not the same Dragoon fucker who raped and turned you, this guy is on our side… relax!" Leonel said as she spoke calmly to Onyx while using a hand to rub her sides.
Lydia went to the Dragoon.
"You okay Mr. Dragoon?" She said as Cedric and Azure tried to calm Onyx down.
"U-Ugh… yeah… didn't expect a cheap shot when I poked my head out…" The Dragoon muttered while he rubs his head as he got in a sitting position near Lydia.
"Awww, maybe later… I can help you feel better." Lydia said before winking at the Dragoon.
The Dragoon blushed a bit from the flirt as he got up.
"T-Thanks… anyway follow me everyone and we can get going." The Dragoon said as he entered the hole and gestured for everyone to follow… though he did glance at Onyx with an on guard look… not a good first impression to him.
The group continues to help Onyx relax.
"There there Onyx. It's not the same jerk that targeted us." Cedric said as he softly pets the female Dragoon's head.
Onyx blushed a bit as she felt this and in no time she was calmed and following the group as she followed behind Cedric while Azure walked next to her… even surprised Onyx when she held her hand gently.
Onyx blushes from that as Leonel did look amused but hoped that this helps Onyx's emotions while thinking of doing damage control.
As the group walked, they passed many twists and turns in silence as Rick, Cedric, Azure when she made sure her weapons were ready and full of ammo as the group followed the Dragoon by a number of areas for some time.
"So… feeling better Onyx?" Azure said as she held the Dragoon woman's hand gently.
Onyx blushes again.
"A bit… just seeing him reminded me of that… fucker." She said with a slight frown while remembering the larger Dragoon.
"Well know you're among friends here… we won't let that guy harm you again." Azure said while she smiles at Onyx more.
"You got that right." Lydia said.
"I will fight tooth and nail to keep that jackass away." Cedric said.
Rick gulped.
"I'll try to help as best I can."
Onyx blushed a bit from this as the group smile at her… time passed to about 3 to 4 hours later with the Dragoon opening a hatch leading to the mining area's tram deck.
"This is the safest part of the area where our lord was last seen, I'll return to the hive and make sure things are well there." The Dragoon said since he didn't seem welcome to Onyx for now.
Leonel rubs the back of her head.
"Right. Sorry for earlier."
"No problem… anyway sexy I'll hold you to that promise of a good time later, for now I need to get going." The Dragoon said before winking at Lydia and left the group when it walked by them.
Lydia chuckles.
"I'll look forward to that."
"Indeed… anyway we should get out of this hole now and meet up with the others, probably waking or doing something since time passed." Azure said as she and the others hopped out of the hole and noticed the open Tram with Squishy Jr. sitting before it and he noticed the group approach him.
"Hey cutie. We came by to see how Emerald and the others are doing. Are they in there?" Leonel said.
Squishy Jr. just tilts his head.
"M-Master not here… women are… should be waking now." Squishy Jr. said as he moved out of the way after getting up.
Most blinked before Leonel went to the door and opens it.
"Knock knock." She said after entering.
When the group entered, the group saw many nude women and Lillum was the only one fully awake while others were groaning thanks to Leonel's knocking waking them up.
"Wow, you guys had a pretty good time." Lydia teased as Rick blushes at the nude bodies.
Lillum chuckles as she pets Lavender's head.
"Hehe, oh yeah, I woke up first so I was waiting for everyone here to wake before we do anything." Lillum said while she smiles at Lavender.
Lavender blushes as she was waking a bit, same as Maite before noticing Emerald not here.
"W-Where's Emerald?"
"Seems he went on his own… again." Cedric said.
"Huh?... oh yeah… he did mention that while saying he was using some of my cash to get himself a new RIG… maybe you can contact him if he is using his old credentials?" Maite said when she sat up and rubs her head.
Cedric went to call Emerald as Leonel spoke to her girlfriend.
"Not cool leaving me behind Lilly. But silver lining. Had fun with Cedy. He was very dominating." She said.
"Hehe, hope so when I heard how… aggressive he can be… big cock I take it?" Lillum said while she smirks at Leonel.
"Hehe… oh yeah. Not as big as Emerald but definitely big. Azy and Onyx can vouch for that." Leonel said while smirking.
"Well I didn't have fun with Emerald so can't really vouch for that… same with Onyx here yet." Azure clarified while giving Leonel a half lidded look.
Onyx raised an eyebrow as Leonel chuckles nervously.
"Okay fair point. But still impressive size. Plus he seemed to have a fetish being the dominant one. Got a good grip on my throat." Leonel said.
Cedric blushed when he heard that as Azure looks at Leonel.
"Done teasing so people can get dressed and we can help Emerald and what he is doing?" Azure said when she made a group call to Emerald… in no time Emerald picked up while he was walking down a hall.
"Hello?" Emerald said on the holographic screen.
"Hey Emerald. We're here with the rest of the group. Any luck finding Hammond?" Cedric said as he got near Azure.
"Uhhh… no not yet, right now working with Kendra on getting this SOS beacon thing set up so we can launch an asteroid out into space so we can call for help… check in with her to see if she has more info and stuff, glad I went alone… this place is crazier than the other areas since most Necromorphs here are pretty berserked… so either a Necromorph here took charge or these guys are just straight up mad… Kendra had to help me bypass some things on my end…. Had to head back to the store when I had to buy a Kenesis module thanks to asteroids blocking some beams and stuff to restore normal gravity… man I hate puzzles." Emerald muttered while he rubs his head.
"Dang… well if that's the case a few of us will have to get you." Cedric said.
"Well if you want you can, working my way slowly to the beacon after getting the Key to the control room so I can launch the asteroid, Kendra was about to tell me something about the colonists here… may as well listen to what she says since Azure called me in the middle of that talk." Emerald said before he patched Kendra through to the others.
After a second, Kendra's voice was heard.
"Yeah, like I said a minute ago… Looks like you have the key to the control room Emerald. Once you get there, you can launch the asteroid but make sure the beacon is attached. I was looking at more reports of the colonists's dementia. It started after the Marker was removed. God knows what happened down there."
"So they literally popped a cork on the insanity and stuff huh?, think it would be that easy if we just get the Marker if its on the ship off and back on the planet?" Emerald said while he carefully walked around a corner or two.
Kendra was quiet for a bit.
"Its possible but should we risk it going down there?"
"Maybe, maybe not, won't matter if we can't get a ship off this place in the end." Leonel said while she reminds many that they were stuck here until they can find a working ship.
"N-No… k-kidding." Lavender said.
"Right… anyway I'll meet you guys at the place where the Asteroid we can use is… after I get the SOS beacon, at this rate while taking care of the occasional Necromorph, I should be there in an hour or so as long as I don't have to do damn puzzles and stuff…" Emerald said while muttering that this place was getting on his nerves.
"Right… I should say be careful… then again… the Necromorphs should be more concerned on their well-beings." Cedric said before chuckling.
"Maybe… hehe found a cute lady Necromorph I haven't seen yet that Lillum maybe interested in meeting, she is traveling with me for protection and stuff… see you guys later so I can introduce her." Emerald said before he hung up on the others while Lillum perks up with interest.
"Dang… Emerald is finding pussy left and right. More than you Sarg." Rick joked.
"At least I got laid while you didn't." Cedric countered.
Rick blinks as he opened his mouth and shuts his before he grumbles.
"Well… that should change soon if we get some fun times in." Rick said with a weak counter.
Cedric chuckled.
"Well ladies… and Rick. May as well go meet Emerald after some of you get in gear."
Many nod their heads as they got ready to go with Maite, Lavender, Cedric, and Azure with Rick working to get various RIGs and weapons set up for everyone who had to breathe and stuff while the Necromorph ladies were waiting for them.
Leonel looks at Lillum.
"I'm curious on who Emerald met at the Mining Deck."
"Knowing him, probably someone cute like Maite or someone with a stacked body like mine." Lillum said with a teasing grin on her face.
Leonel chuckled at the idea as Cedric was checking his ammo a bit before looking at Azure.
"Azure, there's something I want to say."
"Hmmm?" Azure said when she worked on a nearby shop panel to gather some med kits and some ammo for Lavender and her Plasma cutter so she could defend herself better.
Cedric was feeling a bit nervous.
"I enjoyed what we… did together and I hope… really hope that when we got out of this hellhole, if I can… take you on a date." He said which surprised Rick and Maite.
Azure on her end looks amused.
"Cedric… do you really think I would say no after all you did with Onyx, Leonel, and I?... honestly I would be an idiot to decline so if we get out of here… sure I'll go on a date with you… hopefully more if that first date goes well." Azure said with a teasing smirk.
Cedric was a bit surprised before he lightly chuckles.
"Well that's great." He said.
"Yeah… though if we can make it so others don't question her looks… may want to ask Onyx out if she doesn't go to Emerald, she is pretty sweet on you after all." Azure said with a smirk on her face.
Cedric did blush a bit before glancing at Onyx's direction.
Surprisingly Onyx was blushing and DIDN'T argue when she seemed to hear that as Lillum had a playful smirk when she had some teasing material to use later.
Cedric looks at Azure.
"Well… if she says yes, I would definitely take her on a date."
"Good… anyway is everyone ready?, Maite got that new soldier outfit?, Rick got those weapons we gave you?, everyone ready to unleash plasma limb cutting hell on Necromorph fuckers… the bad ones at least?" Azure said when she cocked her plasma rifle.
The group got serious.
"Oh I'm ready." Cedric said
"Same here." Rick said as he cocked his gun.
"Time to kick ass!" Lydia said.
"Good… lets get going… in groups though, thin halls mean less room to move so lets go in groups of 3 or 4 thanks to the number of us… for Lavender, lets give the heavy hitters Lillum and Leonel to guard her, Maite can tag along with them if she wants for the first group…. May as well call them Emerald's ladies since Emerald will be having fun times with them soon." Azure said when she smirks at the four women mentioned.
Maite and Lavender blushes as Leonel giggles.
"Works for me. Go team Emerald." She said with a peace sign.
"Indeed… seems Lydia will be with the next group so we will see you all later… lets get going ladies." Lillum said when she walked down the hall with Leonel, Lavender, and Maite following her… though Squishy Jr. ignored Azure to follow as he picked up Lavender to keep her from walking.
Azure looks at the others when shrugging so the groups can be sorted.
"Alright… lets see who goes next." Azure said as the scene went to Maite, Lillum, Lavender in Squishy Jr's arms, and Leonel who took the lead since she was a Royal guard so she would do her best to guard the group from crazed Necromorphs… like one that was stomped on by Leonel who scoffed when she crushed the head of a screaming Necromorph.
"Seems like Emerald was right on them being crazed or someone in command if they ignored Lillum of all people." Leonel said while she stomped the limbs of the Necromorph off so it wouldn't get back up.
Maite did gulp while keeping guard.
"I hope it's not that evil Dragoon fucker's doing." She said since it has been like hours… or days since the group last encountered the large Dragoon."
"Well I wouldn't worry, even if it was that Dragoon, Emerald, Leonel, and I would rip him limb from limb if he attacked us knowing how strong we are… honestly you're probably with the strongest guard and kick ass Queen you can be with and Lav here is guarded by an unkillable beast so I would be shocked if that bastard tried anything with us." Lillum said to try and ease Maite's worries.
Maite did blush at the Queen part but was feeling less worried.
"Well… don't know about me being a Queen unless I somehow lead a hive like you, Lillum, but can still can ass, whether or not I'm in armor."
"Huh?... when did I call you a Queen unless you want to get changed… as for the kickass thing in and out of Armor… well wouldn't mind seeing that but for now better keep the armor on so Emerald doesn't wonder why his sexy human is scarred here or there." Lillum said in a teasing manner as she smacked Maite on the ass and moved to walk next to Leonel and the two kept some senses open to make sure that they wouldn't get ambushed.
Maite jolts from that action as Leonel and Lavender chuckles at Lillum's action.
Meanwhile as the group worked their way down the hallways and some rooms…
After Emerald got the SOS becon from a room after having his new ally work to get the door open, which would explain why he was able to get in since in canon, Issac was only able to get in either by Nicoles help or the door was open to begin with but thanks to hallucinations the door appeared locked and stuff… either way no Nicole illusions at this point since Izzy was with the group at the mining tram area.
Either way after Emerald got the SOS beacon he was contacted by Kendra.
"Emerald?… thank God… almost lost your signal. Seems you got the beacon. Now you just have to head to the mining bay and attach it to the asteroid." Kendra said.
"Almost lost my signal?... guess this place is really falling apart if stuff like that is happening." Emerald muttered before he and his new ally approach the slow moving lift and Emerald looks at her.
"So… Delta was it?, you doing alright?" Emerald asked while he looks at his new ally… she was surprisingly similar to a harpy with most of her body being human like, pretty cute even if a bit petite for her age but Emerald chalked it up to how her body was altered when she was revived into a Necromorph… honestly Delta seemed a bit like a name made up on the spot… either way she looked like a human woith long brown hair, but the Necromorph part of her was large fleshy wings with a few finger like bits at the end… reason why Emerald was able to get in the door and stuff was because of her mainly, the door was about to lock up on him but Delta was able to fly over and hit a few keys on the keypad to keep it from locking and leaving Emerald to think of ways to get in… honestly saved him time and stuff.
"Y-Yeah… still surprised I remember who I was before the change." Delta said.
"And you're serious about that?... Your name is Delta?... granted Emerald isn't a usual name for me but figured that could be more or a squad name like Delta squad… guess surprises happen." Emerald said while he and Delta walked on the platform as it slowly moved.
"Maybe but still… I'm still alive… somewhat. I feel like a mutated zombie." Delta said.
"Well if you didn't noticed, may as well call me a high ranked Zombie hehe… and considering things, don't blame me if this high ranked Zombie flirts with the cute flying Zombie next to me." Emerald teased while he winked at Delta.
Delta did blush before Kendra reminded the duo that she was still online.
"I can still hear you... Anyway, I did my calculations and once the asteroid is launched, there's a safe bet it will reach a safe distance to begin transmitting. Still no sign of Hammond… wouldn't be surprised if he made it or not."
"Eh guy is a stubborn bastard, probably would live through the apocalypse, AKA, this situation and just come out like one of those tough grizzle war vets I heard so much about… anyway Kendra, how are the elevators?... I checked a bit but couldn't get by them earlier, any luck now for the mining sub deck?" Emerald asked to get things back on track as he looks around and saw a few Necromorph enemies looking at him and Delta… they didn't attack which made him narrow his eyes but he didn't do anything to get them to attack while he and Delta neared the other end of the lift line.
"Well good news, I was able to get elevator access to the mining sub deck. It was on security lockdown though I don't think it would have helped them. Now that you got the key and beacon, head over there." Kendra said.
"Right, wish me and Delta luck in getting there, how are the others though?" Emerald asked about Maite and the others.
"I haven't checked on them, yet. But you should know that the asteroid is protected by some gravity tethers. Need to take those out before anything." Kendra said.
"I see… any in space on the asteroid itself?" Emerald asked while he looks on guard when any Necromorphs they did come across either left them alone after seeing Emerald and Delta… or shut certain doors… the guiding beacon didn't stray from the course but this unnerved Emerald a bit at how… pathy the Necromorphs were getting with the duo.
Delta was getting a bad feeling about this as Kendra spoke up.
"Actually yes. Two would be in the inside while two are outside."
"I see… do me a favor and do some kind of examination of the tethering room Delta and I are approaching… if the feeling is my gut is anything to go by… things are about to get intense." Emerald said while he looks at Delta to keep on guard when they were before the door to the mining tether room… most likely the others will be there as well but if things went as they normally would with a big room… chances are a large battle would take place.
"Right… well good luck." Kendra said as the com ended.
Emerald blinks though since Kendra didn't even attempt to scan the area… either the place was unable to be scanned or there could be other reasons… either way Emerald looks at Delta who was nervous about Kendra's lack of response with Emerald's request.
"I got a bad feeling about your friend's lack of response." Delta said.
"Yeah… lets give her the benefit of the doubt though, this place is a bit beat up so maybe she can't do much and is just stressed… and she isn't insane so not like she would work to get us killed… probably her best bet at staying safe is helping us." Emerald said while he cracked his neck as he got ready to open the door.
"Right. May as well head to the asteroid now." Delta said.
Emerald nods before he and Delta open the door… the group didn't see anyone yet though from a nearby door was Maite's group, Azure's group, and Rick's group with everyone getting reunited.
"Guys!... are you all OK?" Emerald asked when he and Delta approached everyone though Delta nervously hid behind Emerald when she saw Cedric and the others with weapons.
"Oh we're fine Emerald." Cedric said.
"Yeah though… what's with your buddy?" Rick said.
"Hmmm?, oh this is Delta, she helped me get to where the beacon was, if not for her may have some issues, she surprisngly remembers who she was, and yes Delta is her name, odd but not the strangest name here… come on Delta show yourself to the others… unless they are deaf or dumb they won't harm a cutie like you." Emerald said while he gestures for Delta to make herself known and Lillum looks like she was adoring how cute Delta looked with how small she was.
"Aww… she's so cute." Lillum said as she gushed over Delta.
Delta blushed, more so when Lillum moved to hug her head between her breasts and Emerald looks amused when he looks at the others and shrugged his arms.
"Seems Lillum likes the cute ladies a lot." Emerald said while he looks amused though he got a serious look.
"Anyway… tell me did you guys run into any Necromorphs on the way here who were hostile or oddly staying out of the way?" Emerald asked while Leonel frowns.
"A bit… at first we ran into some that attacked us but once we got pretty close to this area… they didn't attack and just made sure we couldn't turn back by blocking doors… anyone get the feeling this is a trap?" Leonel said while Emerald rubs his chin.
"Knowing us… highly likely… Kendra didn't scan the place just in case even though I asked… I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt though and just considering her getting stressed and not able to do much if many things are broken around here… still… considering how well things are going…" Emerald said as a part of the wall was busted down as Emerald looks to where the hole formed as an alarm went off.
"... its about time we had some action happen huh?" Emerald said when he saw the Black Dragoon with a new arm that looked different to his old one and many Necromorph enemies appeared with him while everyone got on guard.
"Hahaha!… I'm back." The black Dragoon said while grinning as Cedric narrows his eyes.
"Yeah well not for long asshole." He said as his eyes were glowing red again.
Many missed that thanks to the angle as the group look at the Black Dragoon while Onyx had a furious look on her face though Emerald speaks before she could.
"Here for a repeat of me kicking your ass?, we both know that aside the new arm, you won't be able to kill us easily, even with numbers… as you can see our own numbers increased as well… Azure, Rick, Cedric… you guys take Lydia, Delta, and Leonel and go for the tethers with this… leaving the important job to you, without this may as well come here for nothing." Emerald said as he passed Cedric the becon while giving him a look that he trusted Cedric with this as Emerald used the Dragoon arm, black coloring and all to mess with the Dragoon as Emerald launched a few fleshy spikes at the tethers inside and blew them to pieces which left the tethers on the outside in space where not many can go without issue… sure Emerald and others who were necromorphs could go there… but Emerald was the only one with an explosive arm and stuff… and with the Dragoon here who would be targeting Emerald given the look of anger… not much luck in him getting far with this guy on his tail.
"You dare use my power?!… I will make sure you suffer!" The black Dragoon said.
"Hehe, like to see you try, last I remember when I got this new body, you left with a missing arm and stuff before you could react… lets just skip the insults and get to the part were we kick your scaly ass… hopefully we can make the other arm match that new arm… seems like an improvement in looks given your ugly mug…" Emerald said with a grin as he clenched his Dragoon formed fist at the Black Dragoon before giving him a scaly middle finger while Emerald gave Cedric a look to get going towards the asteroid while he had the chance.
Cedric nods his head before he, Azure and Rick lead, Delta, Leonel and Lydia away as Onyx glares at the Dragoon.
"Time to die fucker!" She said.
Emerald gripped her on the shoulder and whispered in her ear.
"Easy… stick near me and after I weaken the guy you can have the honor of killing him, right now he has numbers on his side so try and play it smart… anger is good when you want to kill enemies but know its more than you who will get in trouble if we don't do things right." Emerald whispered before he lets Onyx go while everyone else who stick near Emerald stepped a bit away from him and what not to give everyone some space since many would have their own fights soon.
The Black Dragoon roars before he charges at Emerald.
Emerald on his end was calm when he saw this and while many Necromorphs moved to attack the others, Emerald dodged a few hits when he watched the Dragoon using some kind of unknown Necromorph arm… seems he was using Emerald's tactic of gaining new arms but unlike Emerald this guy didn't alter it, guess it was just a replacement… still with the power behind the attack when the Dragoon dented the floor showed taking a hit was not a good idea.
"Hehe, come on man, your slower than usual, guess your not used to the arm?... shame I got plenty more and pretty used to them already… guess your not a real king if you can't adapt and stuff." Emerald taunts though frowns when the Dragoon growls at him.
"I'll break your limbs and make you watch as I break all these women in as my fucking bitches." The black Dragoon growls as Emerald reformed his Dragoon arm into the Brute arm.
"Buddy… you can insult me… but one thing you shouldn't do is threaten my women… it makes me get from testing things to just wanting to end a fight… more so when there is more than just me getting angered by what you said." Emerald said with his voice getting dual toned and it was surprisingly the Brute's voice added to Emerald's voice to show to many that the Brute really was still in Emerald now and it seemed he was just as angered as Emerald by the Black Dragoon's claim.
Maite remembered the voice as The Black Dragoon was a bit surprised but scoffed.
"Your threats are empty as I prove to you who's the true Alpha!" He roared before charging at Emerald with a new arm.
A moment later, Emerald roars when he sent the Brute arm in a punching motion and Emerald and the Dragoon's fists collide making the duo skid from one another while Onyx was busy growling as she ripped apart many weak Necromorphs who barely put up a fight, it was just numbers the enemy had and Onyx looked to see Emerald and the Black Dragoon starting their fight and Emerald was able to equal or match the Dragoon in power, Emerald was probably trying to be careful if the arm the Dragoon had any secret ability that could get him off guard.
Maite and Lillum made sure take down any weak grunts that came their way as the Black Dragoon continues to his battle.
While this happened, thanks to the gravity being messed with, Emerald and the Dragoon and the others float as Cedric, Azure, Rick, and many others with weapons float towards the Asteroid while Emerald reformed his Brute arm into a tentacle arm and grins when the Dragoon had trouble moving.
"Whats the matter?, can't fight in zero G!" Emerald said as he used a tentacle on the Dragoon to pull himself towards the Dragoon and quickly reformed the tentacle arm into the Brute arm and slugged the Dragoon in the gut… not enough power to cause serious injury thanks to the lack of momentum but enough to knock the wind out of the guy… more so when Emerald aimed low where his dick was making Onyx grin at the pain on the Dragoon's face while he got angered at Emerald and threw a Necromorph at him though he launched a explosive flesh spike at the Necromorph much to Emerald's shock and Delta flew over and helped pull Emerald away before the Necromorph blew up.
"T-Thanks Delta." Emerald said while he didn't like how the Black Dragoon used his own ally as a bomb of sorts.
"No problem. Let's beat this fuck!" Delta said.
Emerald was surprised at how Delta cursed and Emerald grins.
"Right… throw me at that guy and support me if he tries that bomb move and I'll take care of the rest." Emerald said as Delta spun and threw Emerald at the Dragoon while the scene went to Cedric and Azure as they placed the bacon while Rick was working to destroy one tether with Lydia supporting him since many Necromorphs were trying to kill them so Azure was backing Cedric as he sets the beacon up properly.
Leonel was also adding support before Cedric sets the beacon down.
"Alright, the beacon is in place." Cedric said.
"Good, lets get the final tether ready to break and get everyone back inside before someone destroys it." Azure said while she blasted the limbs of a few Necromorphs to pieces or off the Asteroid into deep space.
The trio nodded and after many got off the asteroid Cedric and Azure got close to the final tether.
Cedric slowed it down before shooting it.
After this Azure and Cedric moved to jump back to the Tether room as the Asteroid was freed from the Ishimura though thanks to some other controls needing to be used, the Asteroid was still here but this would change when Azure watched as Cedric used a guiding beacon to locate the path to where the main controls are… thanks to gravity being restored the battle nearby with many was back on ground level though Delta was holding Emerald who was thrown at the Dragoon with Emerald roaring as he threw another punch with the Brute arm, this time with serious momentum being used which knocked the Black dragoon back and Emerald grins as he gestured for the Dragoon to come at him with a single hand now.
The Dragoon groans before he roars and charges at Emerald with a pissed off look.
As Emerald dodged a few attacks while blocking more, he blocked another hit though he got a surprised look when the Dragoon grins as his arm did have an ability of sorts when the shoulder bit opened and a blast mist blasts out and Emerald was coughing up a storm when he got hit face first and was using his human hand to rub his eyes.
"M-My eyes!... tear gas!?... what the hell!?" Emerald growls out though he was slugged in the gut away from the Dragoon who laughs at Emerald's predicament.
"Hahaha!… surprise." The Dragoon said.
"Emerald!" Maite said as Cedric glares at the dragoon.
"You bastard!"
The Dragoon however ignored them to focus on Emerald who got to his face while he tried to get his eyes cleared but a shoulder tackle plus more gas being fired at Emerald mid tackle caused Emerald to get blinded again as Onyx and Lillum, who ended most of their enemies rushed the Dragoon while Maite went to help Emerald after blasting a Necromorph out of the way.
"I'm gonna make you regret harming my man." Lillum said as Onyx had an intent to kill the Dragoon.
"Ha!, bring it bitches, I'll show you I'm better than that small guy there!" The Dragoon growls as he bum rushed Onyx and gripped an arm and threw her in the air while he grins at Lillum while he backhands Lillum while mixing the gas from his shoulder in on the attack and while Lillum blocked the hit and closed her eyes to avoid getting blinded, she was caught off guard when the Dragoon's long tail sweeped her feet making her fall on her back as the Dragoon grins at her.
"Once I kill that false King, I'll be showing you who a real king is!" The Dragoon growls as he used a hand to grip Onyx on the throat when he noticed her landing nearby and launching at him and he looks curious when he looks at her.
"Hmmm?... who are you?... wait… arn't you that bitch I fucked to death?... hehe, back for seconds?" The Dragoon taunts as he laughed at Onyx a bit while he had a large foot on Lillum's stomach to pin her to the ground.
Cedric's eyes widened before his gun out.
"Let them go!" He said before he shoots at the Dragoons arm.
Even though he knew the armor was there, there had to be a good distraction.
This did irritate the Dragoon since he didn't like a human getting in his way and rolls his eyes.
"Fine… catch!" The Dragoon growls and threw Onyx at Cedric with serious force with a smirk when Onyx was flying like a rocket at Cedric at a rapid rate.
Cedric's eyes widened.
"Crap." He said before he was hit by a flying Onyx.
The force was so strong that not only was the wind knocked form Cedric, he and Onyx crashed hard into the wall and Cedric took the brunt of that attack which knocked half his health from him and he coughed up blood in his helmet and he and Onyx crash on the ground while Emerald, getting help from Maite to clean his eyes, had glowing red eyes when he looks at the Dragoon who laughs at how much pain Cedric must be in while Onyx who recovered got worried when she looks at Cedric since unlike her, unless he was berserked, his body was more human that her body was.
"Sarg!" Rick said as Leonel growls and charges at the Dragoon for attacking her friend and lovers.
The Dragoon grins more as the part where the Gas came from opened and plenty of the Gas formed in the room pretty much blocking the Dragoon and Lillum from view, after a moment of Lillum making a noise of discomfort, Lillum flew from the gas right at Leonel and though she tried to catch her, Leonel was knocked well off her feet by the impact and similar to Cedric, Leonel got smashed into the wall while Emerald growls as he had enough and formed his own gas making arm.
"Enough!" Emerald growls as the flesh sac on his shoulder starts to inflate rapidly and he used a gust of oxygen to blast the mist away much to the Dragoon's surprise when he was seen and Emerald glared at him.
"Your not the only one with a similar trick you sick fuck!" Emerald growls as he looks at Maite while Emerald formed the tentacle arm.
"Go check the others… I'll be fine… I won't be tricked twice." Emerald said while he looks at the Black Dragoon while the Dragoon growls at the situation he was in… however he grins as he gripped the gas spewing arm on his shoulder.
"Maybe… but I do have an ace up my sleeve… may as well give a gift of sorts… better watch it though… my gift will cost you." The Black Dragoon growls as he actually crushed his own arm but in exchange it pretty much explodes with a black mist pretty much filling the room making many without helmets shield their eyes and even thoughts with helmets couldn't see much… unfortunately the group couldn't react when the Dragoon barrelled from the cloud and rushed right at an off guard Azure… punched her in the gut carefully to knock her out before she knew it… and by the time the cloud vanished Cedric and the others saw the Dragoon carrying a knocked out Azure towards the hole and grins at the group.
"I'll see you all later, may as well see if I can get a new breeding bitch to make better minions since these low level guys won't do much now." The Dragoon said as he placed a knocked out Azure in the arms of a minion nearby as Emerald starts to charge the Dragoon though Emerald had to stop when the Dragoon quickly fired many explosive spikes around the opening where the Dragoon came from and Emerald was blasted back with Emerald roaring in pain when so many explosions happened at once… the Dragoon and his minion ran off before they could be caught in the blast as Emerald crashed on the ground with his body slightly charred.
"Damn it! He took Azure!" Rick said.
"N-No…" Cedric said weakly and tries to get up.
Though as Cedric managed to get up… many of the Dragoon's necromorph minions were surrounding the others… but a massive killing intent emits from Emerald as he slowly sat up… he had a hard to read look but the veins on his body bulging and him looking cold now despite his seemingly calm demenor and he looks at the minions and with a cold look, just said this after Emerald saw the opening that the Dragoon took the Dragoon was sealed with many tons of rubble.
"I'm only going to say this once…" Emerald said as he got to his feet.
"Stand down… or I'll devour you all you pathetic pieces of trash…" Emerald said while he emits a pressure that only Necromorphs could feel… their King was greatly displeased… royally so.
The Necromorphs shudder in fear before they backed away.
Emerald though used a tentacle arm while he pants a bit from the injuries from the explosion getting to him and brought a Necromorph minion to him face to face and gave a cold glare to the minion.
"How long… will it take… to go along an alternate route… to where that Dragoon fucker is… he must have a nest of his own… with you all in it… either answer… or get ripped apart." Emerald threatened while the tentacles tighten on the Necromorph minions limbs and the Necromorph metaphorically pales.
"T-The c-closest route… that was shut… would take 30 minutes… thanks to a tram… long way… is 2-2 hours." The minion said as Emerald growls darkly.
"I'm going to make one thing clear… you and your minions… will clear this rubble… after that… you can go anywhere… but if I see you all again… consider your second chance at life forfeit… do I make myself clear?" Emerald growls while he emits a red mist showing his rising anger.
The grunts shudder in fear before they went to clear the rubble as fast as they can.
Lillum looks at Leonel with a concerned look.
"You okay, Leo?"
"Yeah… though I am going to make that fucker pay for using underhanded tactics like that!" Leonel growls with anger though many see Emerald falling to his knees and to the ground when he passed out a moment later while Cedric did the same… looks like the damage they took did a number on them.
"Oh man, they're both down." Rick said as Maite and co looks at the duo.
"We need to heal them." Maite said.
"Well we can use a med kit on Cedric and wait for him to wake, not sure if one will work on Emerald given his Necromorph nature, most high ranked Necromorphs can naturally heal fast so all we can do is just wait with Emerald." Lillum said with some worry.
"Either way, won't move far until the debris is cleared so hopefully we can help Azure when these two wake… something tells me these two will be out for blood for different reasons… more so with Cedric when he realizes what happened wasn't a dream." Lillum said when she looks at Cedric now.
Cedric's breathing was a bit shallow which worried Onyx.
"Damn… this is my fault. Let my personal vengeance blind me."
"No, considering I got pinned and thrown at Leonel, it wouldn't be your fault… guy pulled a cheap shot with that gas bomb trick with his arm so it was just a matter of time before he did that since things were not looking good… in fact its like he was just testing us now… to see how strong Emerald was… and if that fucker can use that Necromorph arm… something tells me he has a secret weapon in store…" Lillum said while she looks thoughtful and many look worried as the scene fades to black… while the Asteroid was taken care off and the beacon launched, seems the group had a rescue to plan once Cedric and Emerald wake and boy would there be plenty on the warpath until Azure was rescued.
