Heart Game: Hurricane - Run 5

[At first, all is still; all is silent.]

[The only light is the light from your phone, where a checklist has taken over the screen. It reads:]

___ Make a change
___ Repair something
___ Protect something
___ Find the True Heart
___ Survive

[Then the light comes up, bright, and then brighter, and you are in…]

[The creatures come screaming down from the sky toward you, two of them veering your way with claws outstretched. One scrabbles uselessly at your suit, unable to break through the armor, but the other hits for 21 (3 dam).]

[The whispers hold no sway over you.]

[Sekhmet activates her support effect to reduce the enemie's effectiveness, and swings toward the one that damaged her with her Shotel!

But at a roll of 5, probably not very effectively. 3 damage, though.]

[Your debuff is in effect!]

[You don't manage to hit; the harbingers twist and writhe in the air, avoiding the blow. The harbingers are no more effective, scrabbling uselessly at your suit with their claws.]

[Wis, please?]

[20!

She is going to try to smash again, this turn supporting Prim on Strength rolls!

Unfortunately, her own attempt at attacking is a 4, though if it does anything, the damage is 4 too.]

[The harbingers are too quick; they twist and turn, easily evading. Their claws catch nothing but air, though, as you dodge them as well.]

[The whispers hold no sway over you.]

[Wisdom is an 8! Oops! Still buffing Prim!

Continuing to slash! Roll of 11, damage 3. Still not great.]

[The whispers grow deeper and more insidious.]

Does it matter anymore?

You've asked yourself a thousand times, over the yawning black emptiness inside you.

[Your blows don't connect, and one of the harbingers scratches uselessly at your armor, but the other spears you with its whiplike tail for 24 (2 dam)]

[13 Wisdom! The voices shake her, but she is fighting for her life, so for now she manages to strike back, but her bad luck continues as she gets a 7 (5 dmg)]

[The whispers won't shut up.]

Does it matter anymore?

You're always afraid you know the answer, and that the hollow place inside your chest will swallow you whole.

[One of the harbingers misses, but the other hits for 25 (2 dam).]

No, no, no, no, no!

[Wisdom 13.

This round she activates the debuffs on all harbingers.

She slashes back, but is beginning to feel the despair as her efforts seem futile. However, with a result of 22 (4 dmg), her luck may be turning around]

[You land a crushing blow on the harbinger... but the whispers just won't just up.]

Does it matter anymore?

Of course it doesn't. Nothing's mattered for a long, long time.

[You have become infected. You are overcome by the urge to give up - to lay down in harm's path and give up the fight.]

[Sekhmet screams and crouches, dropping her sword to wrap her arms around herself. There's no point. It's over. None of this is worth fighting for. She cannot be saved. Nothing can be saved.]

[Oh my gosh what??? Jumping in front of Sekhmet as she falls to shoot away that harbinger, 23 dex for 3 damage, and also healing Sekhmet for 2HP is she hurt something's wrong

nearly forgot wisdom 22]

Sekhmet! It's okay, get up!

Edited 2020-02-23 20:22 (UTC)

[The harbinger goes down, twitching its death throws; the second races in, clawing at L for 24 (3 dam).]

[If you want to get Sekhmet to her feet, you'll need to convince her somehow...]

[L tries to shoot it but she's not quick enough, crit failing and screaming as this one knocks her down. She tries to push it back off of her, but that hit took it's toll, her injuries are starting to add up and even if she heals herself for another 2HP, it's not enough to push the thing off.]

Sekhmet! Sekhmet, I know it's scary! It's okay to be afraid! I'm afraid too, but we can do this! You're not alone, Prim and me, we're here to help, but we need you too! I need you! Right now! Help me, Sekhmet!

[16 charisma and wisdom]

[The words don't seem to penetrate the haze of misery inflicted by the harbingers.]

[Thankfully, this harbinger's claws also can't seem to penetrate your suit.]

I...

[She's drowning in despair, she feels like she's adrift in emptiness. It feels like the time she was broken and turned into a monster. A witch of chaos, corroded by the void.

It's hopeless.]

Sorry... I just... can't. I'm broken. I've always been broken. I'm just going to fade away, gently.

[That is NOT HELPING SEKHMET. L also notices Prim trying to flee from the corner of her eye and screams, glowing brightly for that heal to give her strength and pushing back against the harbinger as best she can. If these girls won't save the princess then the princess will just have to save them first!!

She activates her suits flight to give her some extra momentum and gets enough room to smash her frying pan into the harbinger on top of her, 19 strength for 3 damage, and she keeps flying up, holstering the frying pan to whip her hair in two different directions - one to catch Sekhmet and one to catch Prim, and haul them both up into the air with her.

And then she is FLYING AWAY MAGICAL GIRL SQUAD OUT. Heading to the nearest not burned down roof area.]

[out you go]

[Healing that right up again!!!]

Sekhmet, hang in there!

[26 wisdom!]

I got you!

[Rushes in, shooting the monster away with her gun (strength 20 damage 4) and healing Sekhmet for that 2 damage!! And rolls a 23 for wisdom]

[The whispers hold no sway over you. The harbinger screams its rage, thrashing in the air as it spatters black blood on the ground.]
