h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Up into the hallway.

*A soldier vomits noisily seeing the remains of the first soldier, shivers, reloads, and motions the rest to follow.*

*Looks back a sees puddle of green vomit, then procedes down the hallway*

[Mourryan] stuff like that's one of the less pleasent parts of war. seeing people's insides, never gets any better really. Just glad I don't have to smell it!

You blew the door? You absolutely inteligent liddle thing, you. But where does this lead, eh?

They failed to take into account the fact that we're in a very narrow corridor, we just reached a sharp corner and people don't generally like having fireballs thrown at them.

* MaW cackles insanely and puts Jade down before leaning back round the corner. He sees movement and throws a fireball at it *

Heh. We'd best keep moving though. Can you walk?

* he throws another fireball down the corridor *

*A soldier shouts as a fireball catches him about the back of the head, dropping him instantly. The other five soldiers turn and rush down the corridor, one more dropping from MaW's fire.*

Oh c**p.

* MaW runs away further around the corner, pulling out his cellphone *

Daedalus, some help please?

*The walls shudder, and begin to cave into the hall behind MaW, large lifting robots on the other side of each pushing them inwards.*

*gets up with only slight amounts of difficulty*

I'm thinking I'll be all right. I just wish I could use my white mage abilities... *gives a very annoyed look at the leader of the Quest, then winks*

But hey. Let's get outta here, ya?

If this was a fantasy quest, we'd have our feet up in a tavern somewhere by now, or more likely we'd be trying to fight our way out of it!

Yes, let's get out of here. Thanks Daedalus.

* MaW leads the way up the emergency exit stairs to the surface *

Seems to me you and I have been in that sort of fantasy forum before...

*follows on silent feet after MaW*

*quietly*

You think there's a tavern somewhere hereabouts...?

Well bugger, why don't we have a hacking supercomputer that can control robots that happen to be in the area?

because you're the good guys... And everyone knows the villains have the best toys. Looks like you picked the wrong side, ne?

Someone get another demolitions team, preferably a fireproof one this time.

We did have a hacking supercomputer that could control nearby robots.
But they stole im and we want im back

Well let's take im back

*A soldier picks up his radio, and calls for a demolitions team.*

* MaW and Jade emerge at street level. MaW flags down a taxi, and it drives away with them comfortably ensconced in the back seat and heading for a Japanese restaurant *

*grins*

...That was almost too easy...

I'm sure it won't stay that way, but we might get to eat before we have to start fighting again.

Where shall we make a thread for the restaurant?
