Weapons of War (4-6-18)


[WP] I didn't want to start this fight, but I'll finish it. [Link to post.]


"I will NOT." Flutter growled at the kids in front of her. She stood still, though maintaining her composure took effort. 

"You think you have a choice?" Felix, the natural leader of the group, and the instigator of their revolt stepped forward from the group. He shook his head. "Ballisea's off world, she can't protect you." The brown haired boy gripped his weapon tighter; his hands began to glow with a golden light. Scales formed over Flutter's body to protect her. 

"I always have a choice," Flutter said. Todd, a blonde boy, dropped his weapon then took a step backward leaving the two girls between him and Felix. Flutter smiled at Todd.

"Oh, they didn't mention that I'm half dragon, did they? Good, I'm glad one of you is reconsidering."  Abby, a dark haired girl wearing a pitch black visor over her eyes moved to grab Todd's hand and pull him forward.  

"C'mon Todd! We can totally take her!" Abby encouraged him, then leaned forward to whisper something in his ear. Todd glanced upward in an obvious fashion and Flutter followed suit. She gasped when she saw thousands of spiders, in all varieties, streaming down from the ceiling at her. 

"Your armor won't do you any good if you can't move," Abby said with a smile. The spiders began to land on Flutter's golden scales and she brushed them off as fast as she could, but there was always more. They swarmed her, covering her tall 7' form in crawling black and brown. Flutter had enough sense not to open her mouth, but in seconds she toppled over as the spiders encased her in layers of webbing. She wriggled on the ground trying to free herself while the four kids ran to her. 

"Nice one, Abbs," Todd said, and they exchanged a high five. The spiders continued to wrap Flutter while on the ground tighter and tighter. Felix kicked Flutter's prone form in the stomach. 

"You always have a choice, huh?" He kicked her again for good measure. "Not this time." Abby lifted her weapon, but Felix held a hand up to stop her. He shook his head. 

"Eury first," he said. 

"What? But I trapped her!" Felix nodded. 

"You did, your spiders are awesome. But we're a team. We *help* each other," he said. Felix waved the blonde girl with a purple visor over her eyes forward, and offered her his weapon. "C'mon Eury. you're in this with us too." She looked at Abby. The dark haired girl nodded her head and smiled in return. 

"He's right." Eury took the blunt weapon from Felix, and a slight smile tugged at one corner of her lips. Abby's spiders cleared from Flutter's wrapped body, leaving behind a large wriggling mass encased in white. Todd chuckled.

"She looks like Mundo," he said. Eury's smile grew, and the rest of the group laughed. The laughter was drowned out by Flutter's scream. The two seconds the spiders did not maintain the webbing keeping Flutter contained was enough for her to tear herself free. She shredded the webbing and rushed to her feet to stare at the four slackjawed kids. The exertion took a lot out of her, but Flutter spoke through her ragged breathing.

"I didn't want to start this fight, but I'll finish it," she said. The giant 7' woman leaned down and grabbed a velvety purple pillow from the floor. "And after I win this pillow fight, it's definitely bed time you guys." An answer hit Flutter in the face as Eury threw her blue pillow at her.

B-Squad (6-29-18)

[WP] You have lived on earth your whole life. One morning, you wake up in the center of a modestly sized crater, as you look about you see fields of violet-tinted grass, a faint red sun in the sky overhead, and two moons in *much* closer orbit than our own. [ Link to post .] Lupe Villalobos standing around in a crater would not answer any questions. She reached up one of the sides gripping the violet grass around the upper rim of the hole. The texture of the violet grass felt the same as the green grass on Earth. The girl's coppery hair shimmered under the moonlight that she was making a point to ignore. She scanned the large field, turning slowly and staring out along the grassy plain.  "Whoaaaaa," Lupe whispered to herself. Despite the situation, she marveled at the beauty of wherever she was. The sight encouraged her to face the two moons she purposely kept at her back. She turned around and found that she could still feel surprised.  "Hi." Underneath...
