Mildred continues playing dead, readying for a time when she can do something about all this. Heck, going downstairs should be a good thing. She keeps an ear out for the voices, wondering if she's getting closer to them.

Rupert hits the lock again, hopefully breaking it this time.

Not Aman · « **Reply #202 on:** June 12, 2015, 02:13:31 pm »

Betty quickly searches the shower room, trying to summon the spirits somehow

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #203 on:** June 13, 2015, 07:55:20 am »

Archie follows the guards, who carry Mildred down the stairs and toward the isolation cells, where they intend to lock her in one.

Betty and Helen, in the shower room, hear the guards go past and see the light from their flashlight.

It occurs to Betty and Helen that trying to find anything in the pitch black darkness is a lost cause. They need that flashlight more than the guards do...

When the guards arrive at the area near the elevator, they (as well as Archie now) notice the heavy smell of smoke in the air and are distracted by it.

"Holy shit! What the fark is that?!?" one guard asks, fishing for the keys to an isolation cell.

"Get this bitch in there fast and we'll go check it out," the other replies.

It would be an easy matter for Archie, Betty, and Helen to ambush the guards unaware at this point.

At the electrical junction meanwhile, Rupert strikes the lock a third time for 5 more Damage and watches in satisfaction as the lock breaks apart.

As this goes on, the ceiling beams finally takes fire and there is a loud whooshing sound as the fire rolls across the rafters like a wave.

The heat and smoke withers Rupert standing so close to it and he takes 4 more Subdual Damage.

Opening the gate, Rupert is able to find relief, as he quickly moves away from the inferno.

A guard meanwhile, looks down the stairs from the pantry and sees the catastrophe Rupert has created. He doesn't say a word, but immediately rushes out of sight (back toward the kitchen), blowing his whistle.

At this point smoke is now pouring up the stairs over Rupert into the pantry above.

Up on the second floor, Earl manages to free himself from the restraints, before the nurse can find her needles in the dark.

Earl knows that the guards would still be watching the hallway over the stairs and has heard the dogs barking - indicating that the watch captain and his Dobermans are up here in the mill room.

With his head still pounding like a motherfarker, Earl also knows that he can't endure any more beatings this evening.

The nurse meanwhile, comes over to the bed with her needle.

Not sure what to do yet, Earl rolls off the bed and slips underneath, while Nurse Archer gasps - "He's gone!"

Out in the mill room, Watch Captain Anderson curses when he sees that everyone but Francis has escaped the area.

Pounding his fist, he gathers the dogs and locks the barred door at the end of the run. He then opens the door to the nurse's station and shines his light in.

"Oh thank goodness you're here!" Nurse Archer says, "The residents are in revolt!"

"Stay here!" Captain Anderson orders, then heads toward the stairs with Victor and Faust in tow.

'KILL ONE, BRING THE OTHER TO ME,' a harsh and commanding voice rings in Mildred's head, followed by a vision of rats chewing at a tiled wall...

Archie goes for the one holding the light- he would be easiest to hit - aggressively swinging his nightstick.

Have to get out fast

Helen attacks with the whip, aiming towards the flashlight since it's quite possibly the only thing she can really see. Ideally, she'll entangle the guards arm, pulling him (and the light) towards her. Or, she'll hit him, he'll drop the light, and everyone will be in the dark.

Not Aman · « **Reply #207 on:** June 13, 2015, 08:45:17 pm »

Hatchet! Betty thinks, swinging it hard at one of the guards.

Tanstaafl · « **Reply #208 on:** June 14, 2015, 02:45:20 am »

Mildred tries to maintain playing dead, though if the opportunity presents itself she might poke the guard-that's-holding-her's eye or something to help bring him down. She'd only do that of it would seem safe, though.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #209 on:** June 14, 2015, 10:54:07 am »

Out of the shadows, Betty's hatchet swings - caroming off the side of one guard's head for 6 Damage and opening a massive gash!

The guard screams and drops the keys he was holding to clutch at the hemorrhaging flap of skin now hanging where his ear should be.

Mildred, knowing these are the keys that open the cell they want to put her in, kicks them away into the darkness.

Helen's whip then cracks out, striking the guard holding the flashlight on his hand for 3 damage. The light drops to the floor with a clatter - still lit, but making it very hard to see anything but everyone's feet.

Archie steps up and swings his nightstick at the guard Betty had struck. It makes a resounding crack off the man's face for 5 more Damage and the guard goes down!

(Having been the one Earl had smashed with the folding chair earlier, the combined damage of all attacks was more than he could take.)

Still utterly shocked by the ambush, the remaining guard fails to mount a meaningful defense yet - allowing the residents to continue their assault unabated.

Betty chops into him for 6 Damage - eliciting a garbled "FARK!!!" - and sending a spray of blood into Mildred's face.

Mildred backs away - fearing (and rightfully so) that she might accidently catch one of these hits in the dark.

Helen, realizing that she's more likely to bust the flashlight with the whip than 'Indiana Jones' it back to her, simply ducks down and retrieves it from between everyone's legs.

She then backs away from the melee and shines the light in the guards face - blinding him.

Archie tries to slam the nightstick over the man's head, but is blocked by the guard's own nightstick as he brings it up to shield his face.

The guard lashes out at Archie, but due to his impaired vision misses by a narrow margin - Archie feeling the end of the night stick wiff past his nose.

Betty continues swinging the hatchet and brings the blade down on the man's fingers - chopping two of them off and wrecking his hand for 4 Damage.

Archie then jabs his nightstick into the man's sternum for 3 Damage, hoping that it will be enough to finally bring him down.

Unfortunately, the man proves harder to kill and looks for a moment (with rage-filled eyes) that he is going to at least take some of the resident's down with him.

Then Helen see an opportunity - when the guard raises his hand to block the light she is shining in his eyes - and shoves the chisel end of her crowbar through the guard's ribs.

The man coughs blood - then groans as he sinks down and is done.

As this battle goes on, Rupert rushes up the stairs into the pantry.

He doesn't see the guard, but hears his whistle blowing ahead.

Then the guard begins shouting "FIRE! FIRE! GET THE HELL OUT!!!"

Reaching the kitchen, Rupert stops at the locked double doors leading outside. They are steel-cased prison barriers that are going to need the key to open. Either that, or an axe and about ten minutes of serious chopping.

Rupert notes that the normally locked security door, which leads from the kitchen to the cafeteria, has been left open when the guard rushed through it.

In the nurse's station on the second floor meanwhile, Earl sees the Watch Captain leave - taking the light with him.

With the nurse and orderly huddled once again near the window, Earl is able to slip out and head to the top of the stairs.

There he sees Captain Anderson at the bottom of the stairs, near the door that leads out of the supply room. He knocks at it and announces that he is coming through; then tries to open it with his keys - but cannot - Betty having jammed the lock earlier.

"GAWD DAMN IT!" he curses, then takes the two Dobermans and heads for the stairs leading to the basement...

"Thank you all!" Mildred cries, before grabbing any flashlights she can find as well as a nightstick.

"Alright, are any of the guards alive? We need to take one of them to the voices. Besides that..." She looks around, "Voices, lead me to you!"

Helen uses the flashlight to facilitate her, Betty, Archie, Mildred & sacrifice getting into the shower together. Mmmmmmm. . . Shower together. . .

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #214 on:** June 15, 2015, 11:39:27 am »

Both guards are good and dead - there will be no 'sacrifice' from either of these two.

Moving back toward the shower room, the group suddenly sees a flashlight beam, coming down the stairs from the supply room above.

The sound of jackbooted footsteps and the pitter of dog feet on the stone, herald the imminent arrival of Watch Captain Anderson and the Dobermans into the basement.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #215 on:** June 15, 2015, 11:48:15 am »

Upstairs, Rupert rounds the corner from the cafeteria, looking down the main hall of the facility.

In the central intersection wait three guards - including the one sounding the alarm. One of them also has the Springfield rifle, pointing up the hall at Rupert.

Behind that group is a fourth guard standing at the bottom of the hallway near the locked door to the supply room.

"GET ON THE FLOOR NOW!!!" the rifleman yells, aiming for a kill shot!

Drakilian · « **Reply #216 on:** June 15, 2015, 12:33:12 pm »

Archie hides behind the corner the captain would come charging through, his nightstick ready to bash in the night captain's face (or fend off the dogs if they get to him first and he can't do anything).

They're ALL going down!

Not Aman · « **Reply #217 on:** June 15, 2015, 12:58:14 pm »

Betty hides, and prepares to brutally axe the captain. Hopefully he'll be shocked by the dead bodies.

"Helen, turn off the light for a second!" She wjisper urgently

Tanstaafl · « **Reply #218 on:** June 15, 2015, 01:06:53 pm »

"Don't kill this one!" Mildred whispers, trying to find a place to hide as well. At the very least she now has a weapon, but it won't help if she's dead. Once again, she'd only attack if it would be safe to do so (probably a dog if it comes too close).

Sethaniel · « **Reply #219 on:** June 15, 2015, 03:29:00 pm »

Helen turns off the light.

killa_robot · « **Reply #220 on:** June 15, 2015, 05:01:07 pm »

Rupert, figuring all hope is lost now, falls to the floor.

"Fred..." He mumbles to himself.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #221 on:** June 16, 2015, 06:37:16 am »

As the Dobermans are following Watch Captain Anderson down the steps, their preternatural hearing and awareness don't help the captain avoid the ambush in time.

They bark a warning, but not before the man is abruptly set upon by the residents at the bottom of the stairs.

Archie tries to hit the captain with his nightstick, but misses as the shocked captain stumbles backwards onto the stairs.

Betty chops down on the captain's arm for 4 Damage, causing the captain curse loudly.

Helen strikes Anderson across the thigh with her crowbar. It lands with a heavy thump - dislocating the joint in his hip for 6 Damage.

"Arrrgh NO!!!" Captain Anderson cries.

Mildred, waits at the ready with her nightstick, hoping the dogs don't come after her.

For such a lazy slob, Watch Captain Anderson proves surprisingly spry when his life is on the line.

Pushing himself back up, he grits his teeth and spits - "There was never any hope for you maniacs anyway! We would have exterminated you just like the last batch! No sense waiting for the inevitable!"

When the residents come in at him again, he swings his nightstick at Betty, but misses due to a wobbly hip.

"TEAR THEM TO PIECES!" he commands Victor and Faust; and the two Dobermans leap at Betty and Helen!

Betty twist to the side and the dog brushes past, landing right in front of Mildred! It ignores her however, and quickly turns back to face Betty once again.

Helen is not so lucky, and is knocked down, as the dog lands on her chest.

Realizing that being on the ground with a vicious dog at your throat is a bad idea, Helen scrambles to get back up.

Archie swings again with his nightstick and clacks the captain off the side of the head for 5 Damage.

Betty continues her murderous spree - chopping at the man's arm again and gashing the hell out of them for another 4 Damage!

Mildred has a chance to strike one of the dogs from behind, but hesitates, knowing it will turn on her if she does.

Up the stairs in the supply room meanwhile, Earl finds an extra flashlight and a stout bit of lead pipe that he could use as a weapon if needed.

He then starts to hear that weird piping music again, sounding high and shrill - as if from a piccolo or small flute. Earl knows that the music is all in his head, but for some reason, he gets the impression that the music needs to play and if it ever stops, all will be lost.

He is shaken out of his thoughts however, when the sounds of a scuffle and barking dogs come up from the stairs to the basement.

And is that smoke he smells?

In the main hall, Rupert drops to the ground.

Two guards then rush up to grab him, one on each side, and escort him to the doors that lead out into the yard - where they unserimoniously throw him down the steps for 1 Subdual Damage.

The two guards then stand in the open doorway at the top of the steps, keeping an eye on Rupert.

From out here, one can see that the pantry and kitchen are now on fire - while smoke is starting to fill the first floor. Some of it is even wafting out the open doors to the yard.

Inside the building, Rupert hears the guards yelling to each other -

"Fark! The place is on fire!"

"The gawd damn crazies, they did this!"

"Can we put it out?"

"Ain't no way!"

"Call the fire department!"

"So they can put out the ashes when they finally get here?"

"Where's the farking captain?"

"Damn it all! It's bad enough they escaped, but this makes us look bad!"

"I say we cut our losses!"

"Dead loons can't tell their side of the story!"

"Yeah, you're right!"

"Let's shoot the one in the yard and lock the rest in to burn!"

"Fark yeah, I like the way you think!"

The grave nature of his situation begins to dawn on poor Rupert...

Not Aman · « **Reply #222 on:** June 16, 2015, 09:02:19 am »

Betty quickly sets off on the dogs, cutting up the doggies angrily.

"BAD DOGGIES!"

Helen attempts to crowbar the dog who attacked her.

Tanstaafl · « **Reply #224 on:** June 16, 2015, 11:10:56 am »

Once again, Mildred will only attack (with nightstick) if it's safe* to.

*If enemy's action round is over, or it looks like he'll go down with one more hit and nobody else is there to finish it besides Mildred.

killa_robot · « **Reply #225 on:** June 16, 2015, 01:31:56 pm »

Sensing the end is here, Rupert begins tweating and acting like a bird like a madman. He hopes he can communicate to any birds nearby, and that they'll dive bomb into the guards, giving him a chance to beat them with his shovel.

Drakilian · « **Reply #226 on:** June 16, 2015, 05:56:12 pm »

Archie executes his signature move, going straight for the cojones.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #227 on:** June 17, 2015, 06:05:35 am »

In the basement melee, Archie punts Captain Anderson in the nuts for 3 Subdual Damage.

The captain lets out a groan, but doesn't go down. Instead, he smashes Archie's elbow with his nightstick for 3 Damage and begins to retreat back up the stairs.

As this goes on, Betty and Helen deal with the dogs.

Betty buries her hatchet in Victor's side for 5 Damage. The beast yelps loudly, but doesn't stop its attack.

Helen swings her crowbar at Faust, but misses, as the Dobermans prove quite agile!

Mildred, still cowering in fear, doesn't bother trying to get into the fray.

At the top of the stairs, Earl sees the Watch Captain trying to come back up.

Not wanting the shit beat out of him again, Earl elects to try his hand at ranged combat - and throws a metal mop bucket down the stairs at Captain Anderson.

The mop bucket slams off the captain's head, slicing him open on a sharp edge for 4 Damage, and knocks him out cold.

Victor and Faust meanwhile, lay into Betty and Helen!

Betty just manages to avoid getting her neck ripped out by Victor, while Faust bites out a section of Helen's calf muscle for 2 Damage.

Up in the yard, Rupert flits around, like the maniac this place has made him.

The guard with the Springfield Rifle comes to the doorway and takes aim.

There is a loud crack and Ruperts upper body explodes with pain - then... just numbness.

Rupert falls to the grass and dies just moments after taking 17 Damage from the shot.

The guards then retrieve Rupert's body and take it into the Cafeteria, so it will burn up in the fire (hopefully covering up that he was shot).

On the second floor, Nurse Archer and Orderly Helms smell smoke.

"Maybe we should go check that out!" Orderly Helms says nervously.

"Nonsense!" Nurse Archer scolds. "The Watch Captain said to stay here. Best to do as he says with all the crazies running loose in the house."

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #230 on:** June 17, 2015, 10:08:29 am »

Earl stomps the Watch Captain in the nads.

The man, who had been unconscious, sits up with a start - gasps loudly - and then falls over dead from the shock.

Tanstaafl · « **Reply #231 on:** June 17, 2015, 11:25:45 am »

"I'm so sorry voices... You'll get your sacrifice, don't worry."

Mildred looks Anderson's corpse to look for anything that may be of importance.

Drakilian · « **Reply #232 on:** June 17, 2015, 06:57:44 pm »

With one hand, Archie swings his nightstick like the fearsome naked beast he is. With the other, he carefully cups and protects his manhood from the angry rabies-filled teeth of the dobermans like the terrified man he is.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #233 on:** June 18, 2015, 07:28:58 am »

Betty continues to swing her hatchet at Victor, but the Doberman latches onto her arm to stop her and rips it open for 3 Damage!

Helen crowbars the Doberman Faust across the back for 5 Damage.

The dog is too shocked by the stinging pain to attack for a moment, but growls vicoiusly.

Coming up from behind, Archie slams the beast with his nightstick for another 5 Damage to the same spot.

Faust whirls around and snaps at Archie, but is now having trouble moving its hind legs with a broken back!

Betty tries to free her arm, but the hatchet slips out of her hand and drops to the floor with a clatter when she does (fumble)!

Victor seizes the opening and lunges at Betty's throat - clamping down and shaking her like a ragdoll in its mouth - Critting for 10 Damage!

Amazingly - with her neck shredded in the Doberman's teeth - Betty manages (makes her Fortitude Save vs. Massive Damage) to stay conscious and continues to fight back!

The wound is horrific looking though - blood oozing from deep gashes on both sides of Betty's neck, running down to stain her hospital gown a crimson red.

On Faust, Helen and Archie are able to beat the lame dog to death with their crowbar and nightstick without it being able to effectively defend itself anymore.

Betty manages to find her hatchet and tries again to hit the dog with it, but Victor springs back to disengage from combat.

It then bolts straight at Arnold and Helen.

The two of them swing at the dog, but miss, as the Doberman sinks its teeth into Archie's inner thigh for 6 Damage - barely missing his femoral artery (and more importantly, his manhood)!

Not lingering, the beast releases Archie and continues past him and on up the stairs (move through attack).

Mildred and Earl wisely give the Doberman a wide berth; and Victor disappears into the supply room - apparently having just fled from the fight.

Listening, the dog can be heard scratching and whimpering at the door that leads from the supply room into the main hall of the first floor above.

As all this is going on, Mildred is able to loot anything of value from the Watch Captain.

She gets his wallet, a flashlight, nightstick, whistle, and the master keys to the facility!

---

Meanwhile, the fire continues to spread, as the residents in the basement start coughing from the accumulating smoke (though from where they are, they still don't see any actual fire).

Archie and Earl both feel like they are going to pass out from the fumes any moment, while the others are fairing only a little bit better.

The cafeteria begins to take fire, while the guards all exit the building - locking the doors behind them.

On the second floor, Francis looks out her window and sees the roof of the pantry and kitchen ablaze.

She screams out for help - but no one is there to rescue her!

In the nurse's station, both the nurse and the orderly realize something is drastically wrong and (completely ignoring Francis) feel their way down the stairs in the dark to find a bloodied Victor scratching at the door leading out of the supply room.

Panicked and hurt, Victor snarls and snaps at the women, chasing them back up the stairs!

"OH LORD SAVE US!" the two women scream in alarm.

Then other voices cry out in anguish - 'Free us! Make it stop!' - but are quickly silenced.

Drakilian · « **Reply #238 on:** June 18, 2015, 12:57:19 pm »

Archie holds his apron over his face (not the side of the apron usually pressed against his balls) to try and somewhat facilitate his breathing while he follows the others, trying not to die. He tries to stay low as well, since the worst of the smoke would be higher up after all.

BerkaZerka · « **Reply #239 on:** June 18, 2015, 01:31:56 pm »

Everyone keeps low, under the ever-thickening miasma of smoke and fumes - moving into the shower room.

There, Helen is able to tend to the wounds, really just making sure Betty and Archie don't bleed to death from their horrific bites.

As this goes on, everyone hears the squeaking of a rat or mouse behind the west wall - where it seems to be scratching or chewing at it from the other side.

Using the flashlights, the area is searched.

Mildred spots a suspicious looking seam in the tiling of the west wall near an old set of unused faucets. Tracing it with her fingertips, it looks like it could be the outline of a secret door or something.

Earl notes that the old faucets and a water shut-off valve nearby appear to be somewhat out of place. Perhaps they are somehow used to open the secret door?

After Earl fiddles with them for a moment, an audible click of an unseen mechanism is heard behind the wall and the seam Mildred had found abruptly parts - reveling a doorway into the unused foundation space under Director Kaufman's Office above ...

Moving into to the hidden space behind the shower room, everyone sees a rat scurry across the floor and disappear into a crack in the bedrock.

The crack transects the room from west to east and is only an inch across at its widest point. The rat squeaks and chitters from down in the crack.

Along the south wall of the space, thirteen bodies, tightly wrapped in sheets like mummies, have been stacked.

Some of them have deteriorated enough to fill the air with the stink of rotting flesh and slick the ground beneath them in horrifying liquid corruption.

Right now, the voices in Mildred's head are silent, though when she strains to hear them, all she can think about is the musical notes she has heard over and over since she's been here.

It makes her realize that she has a whistle from the watch captain - though it only makes one of the high pitched notes. She'd need a piccolo or tin flute to get them all ...

Tanstaafl · « **Reply #247 on:** June 21, 2015, 08:32:33 am »

Betty, taking the watch captain's keys and a flashlight, holds her breath and rushes out of the secret area. Immediately, she takes in the grave nature of their situation, as running up the steps into the supply room is like entering a dark netherworld of sulfuric choking shadow.

The place is completely filled with black eye-stinging smoke - limiting vision with the flashlight to only a foot or two ahead.

Betty nearly trips over something in the dark and shines her light down to see the dead body of Victor the Doberman - succumbed to the fumes.

Arriving at the locked door exiting the supply room, Betty tries the keys but finds none of them will open the door! Then she remembers that she had jammed the lock earlier ...
