Tycho heard someone talking, so he glanced over and then froze, One of the yoshies from earlier, surrounded by...5 Terentiis? Before he had time to react, the Terentii that was following pounced on him and they fell back down the stairs. Tycho shoved Terentii off when the reached the bottom, he stood up and got into a fighting stance, "What's going on here Terentii?" he demanded. Terentii brushed himself off and then calmly replied, "you won't live long enough to find out" he too went into a fighting stance, waiting for Tycho to make the first move. Tycho grinned and replied in a tone trying to mock Terentii, "we sir, will just have to see about that."

"Hey look, there's Yoshee!" I exclaimed while floating around. Looking just past the Terentii I tackled in, Yoshee came tumbling at us. Teo held on to Tempest and grabbed Yoshee with my tongue so we would all get on the same speed (imagine us drifting away). Teo intercepted a chest that was coming their way and sat on it, looking calm and curious. "If it wasn't that I didn't know how to get out of here, this is a really calm place." Teo turned to Yoshee with his still-full bag of halloween treats. "Candy?" he said, unraveling a snickers bar.

Enrique listened - barely - to the noises in the hall. The wall muffled the sounds from the hall. But what I heard was that Terentii was trying to kill everyone. However, they were going through a mirror instead. "A mirror?! What the heck?!" He searched some more around the closet, hoping to find something he could use to rescue the others.
"Hey! What is this?" He picked something off the floor. It was an old, heavy book. What could he do with it? Whack Terentii on the head with it to find answers? Hopefully, that would help. But he was unsure of this decision...

British had been in a side room away from the noise, modifying some functions of his ASMD so it was able to produce a shotgun effect instead of the standard beam. " That should do it. " He slung the ASMD over his shoulder again and set off back to the main hall. After a few minutes of walking, British couldn't help but notice there was a distinct lack of... anything. Sound, people, nothing. Usually you could see somebody in the corridors, or hear somebody speaking.. the whole place seemed deserted. Walking through the doorway into the hall, he noticed a light coming from another room but thought nothing of it. The hall was surprisingly empty, except for what looked like Terentii stood with his back facing British, hunched over slightly. British went over to him and tapped him on his back. "Uh, hi, you know where the rest of my group is? I haven't seen any of them about the place." Terentii didn't move an inch, or give any indication of even noting British was stood two feet behind him.. "..." British furrowed his brow, he wasn't a fan of people outright ignoring him. He walked round to Terentiis front side and asked again. "Where is everyone?" "..." Terentii was staring into space, almost right through British. It certainly was a bizarre thing to see, although what British had seen so far could compare to that. "Fine, suit yourself..." He turned back to walk out the door., but this time Terentii perked up a little. "Wait... I... haven't seen... your friends." He seemed to twitch slightly, he definitely seemed to have his mind on other matters... " Now we're getting somewhere. So where do you think they are? I want to see what we're meant to be doing next. No offence, but I'd rather get out of here and find where that Sceptre is. "Get out, you say? My, my no, you may be here for a while yet... I believe your friends went into the... artifact room." British noticed that Terentii was putting a strange emphasis on some oh his words, he seemed to be acting more suspicious with each passing minute. "Allow me to show you there, I do believe that is where they are... yes." British hovered his hand over the grip of his pistol, almost expecting something to happen, but thought better of it. "Fair enough, lead the way." He didn't trust Terentii, but it would seem he had no other viable choice. Terentii motioned over to the room that had the light shining from the doorway, and started to walk there. He could hear a sort of humming sound... his hands went for the ASMD this time, after sliding it round to this front so he could easier access it if something were to happen. "There we are, the gangs all here..." Terentii pointed into the room... which was empty. The Mirror in here appeared to be the main light source. "...Is this a joke? The room is empty! Now where is everyone?" British threw his arms in the air, frustrated by the whole situation. "I... don't think you've taken a close enough... look. Why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror, you look awful." Terentii definitely seemed to have to want British in this particular place. British walked over toward the mirror, but heard a sound behind him. "Look, why don't you just get to the point and tell me where everyone is?" British turned round again only to see Terentii splitting himself into duplicates. "...What the hell? Whats going on here!" There were three Terentiis now, each one edging closer to British' position. This time, British raised his ASMD and clicked it onto the new Shotgun setting. "Hold it!" Terentii and his two copies kept moving regardless. "Why don't you want --" "-- to see my mirror? It really is an excellent piece -- " " -- of craftsmanship. There aren't many like it... It's --" "-- one of a kind." Each Terentii was finishing the others sentence, and still the three kept walking forward. British was edging closer and closer to the mirror, but didn't notice. "I'm not afraid to use this weapon, you know! One more step and you're as good as vapourised." "Silly boy. What do you plan to do with that toy? Shoot me? I'd like to see you try it. I doubt you could hit a barn door at this distance, let alone little old me." The central Terentii stepped forward. "I warned you!" British pulled the trigger and instantly the payload of his shot blasted toward Terentii. Just as they were about to hit him, they stopped dead in mid air. There were a dozen or so bolts, each fizzling in the air slightly with a visible ring of heat distortion around them. The middle Terentii simply stood there for a second. "See? What did I tell you? I knew you couldn't come close to hitting me, or my comrades here. Now you've irritated me." British was stunned. " ... Thats impossible!" "See, Mr British, it isn't nice to shoot other people, and in their own home, too! I'd like to have a good word with your parents and see what they'd make of your lack of manners. That is, if they were still alive of course. Terrible shame. Now, lets see how you like it." The second Terentii walked over to the group of energy bolts, and swept them out existence with the back his hand, except for one. "...Awfully bad manners." He grabbed hold of the bolt, and turned it round so it was pointing at British. Usually the heat alone is enough to burn off whatever it touches, but apparently not in this case... "Goodbye, Mr British." "Wait, what do you -- " Before British could finish, the bolt had reactivated and sailed forward hitting him straight in the chest. His armour absorbed most of the impact, but the force alone was enough to send him reeling, stumbling into the mirror with a flash. ((OOC:There I go again, always with the long posts, eh?  )) |

OOC: Yep,
Teo was munching on his candy in the mirror when British came flying in, apparently far from getting anywhere near them. He looked as if he was going to hit one of the flying objects...which did serve a purpose in the end. Teo extended his tongue to its barthest reach and snagged one of Britishes feet eww, it's sweaty... and reeled him back in. "Welcome aboard British!" Teo said as he half-sat on the mallet floating under him. "We have no idea how to get out of this one, but hey, old souvenirs tend to pass by. I even found candy from last halloween! Want some?" Teo said to british, apparently in a better mood than outside.

[OOC] Okay, here's just a fast update. In The Mirror Portal: Tempest, Teo, Yoshee, Jayshi, Frog, In the Castle: Enrique, Yoshiken, Tycho Missing in Action  : Leonidas, Yoshi Wannabe (GET BACK HERE!  ) [/OOC] Tempest~ Tempest looked to see that he was joined by his companions. "Damn! He got you guys too? I can't believe we didn't see this coming.. We should have known from the start!" Tempest started angrily, as he floated to the rest of his group. He looked around him to see a swirling world of nonsense. There was nothing here, yet everything was here. He looked to Teo, who was offering people old Halloween candy. Frustrated, he grabbed the bag from Teo. "Is this really the time to be snacking on candy and acting like a three-year old?" Tempest shook the bag and chucked it into the air. Even though he had used all his might, the bag only floated a couple feet away from him, tumbling uselessly in midair. Tempest's brow furrowed, and in frustration sent a bolt of electricity rippling into the bag of candy. However, the bag did not explode immediately. It seemed to suck the energy from the electricity into it, and started to puff up. It pulsed and expanded, and then caved in as a hole in the area opened up. Frightened, Tempest peered inside this vortex and saw a normal scene. A child, walking down a lane with her mother in hand, with the same bag of candy. The hole quickly closed up and the bag of candy was gone. "Ok. Wait. So that scene was where the candy bag was located in the first place. And to activate this.. portal.. we need to feed it energy." Tempest said excitedly, trying to piece things together. "Before I fell into the mirror, I saw the Bliss Sceptre in here! But we can't leave without our teammates. We need to find an item that would be in the castle, go through that portal and save our friends, come BACK into this mirror... and then find that Bliss Sceptre." Tempest said, rushing. He dove out into the floating space, trying to find an item that only Terentii would have, while keeping another eye out for the Bliss Sceptre.. |

*smack* Tycho was punched into the wall, "this guy is a better fighter than I expected" Tycho thought as he stood up and furiously tried to punch Terentii again, still missing every time. Terentii just smiled as he easily dodged every one of Tycho's attacks, "You really have no idea what you're up against foolish yoshi" Terentii taunted, Tycho still failing to even land one punch. Tycho became so angry and frustrated, his hands lit up in the blue flame out of his control; He ried even harder to hit Terentii, but only managed to scorch his cape. "I'm growing bored of this fight, I'll just end it now and go get the rest of your friends" Terentii said as he kicked Tycho back and then grabbed a decorative sword off its stand nearby. Tycho stared wide-eyed at the polished blade, "this is REALLY going to hurt" he mumbled under his breath, waiting for Terentii to make his move. Terentii aimed for the heart and thrust the sword at Tycho; in an unexpected move, Tycho grabbed it right before it made contact, "GAHHHH!!" he yelled in pain, his hands now deeply cut by the blade. Terentii pulled back the sword in surprise, eyeing the blade, which for some reason was still clean despite having cut into Tycho's hands; "peculiar" he said, still eyeing Tycho who seemed incapacitated from the cuts on his hands, "I'm not quite done with you yet..." Terentii said in a monotone voice. He turned and started to head toward where Yoshiken was, Tycho stood up ready to try to fight again, in a split second, Terentii thrust the sword right through Tycho and into the wall, pinning him there unconscious.

Enrique crept out of the closet only to see Terentii pin Tycho to the wall with a sword. Was it the time to attack him with the book? "Well, either now or never..." Enrique would get caught by Terentii if he just stood there. He tip-toed around to the back of Terentii, hoping he wouldn't be noticed. Just 18 inches from Terentii now, Enrique swung the book, and hit Terentii in the head. Terentii dropped to the floor, clinching his head; Enrique threw the book at him again in the head. "OW! Damn you, you idiotic yoshi!" "Hey! You don't call me an idiot!" Enrique picked the book back up and slammed it at Terentii again. "Now tell me what you did to everybody!" "Exactly what I'm going to do to you!" Terentii grabbed Enrique and tossed him into the wall. Enrique got back up, and started charging toward Terentii, who, in reaction, stepped out of the way. Enrique's momentum prohibited him to stop running when Terentii stepped aside, causing Enrique to run right into the mirror he saw most of friends enter before...

[2(o)+c -> Ach! Mein thirst!]
Leonidas's eyes snapped open at the sound of someone yelling several rooms away. He leapt up, grabbing his equipment and taking a few steps forward only to discover that the bedroom was empty, except for the one with the red cap... and Terentii in the doorway. He had a worried look on his face, swaying side to side and fiddling with his hands.
"What's going on?" Leonidas demanded and marched toward his worried host, who jumped and exclaimed "Gah! You?! Eheh... There seem to be uninvited guests, how long were they planning on staying, do I have to prepare bunks for everyone? Y, your friends are dealing with it now, please, come with me..." Terentii made a motion to Come and Leonidas followed him out of the room, jogging down the hallway towards the sources of the commotion. Most of the souds were dying down as they neared the large door, only slightly ajar. "They are in there!" Terentii shrieked and pointed at the door. Leonidas nodded and kicked it open, then ran into the room.
He was met by no less than seven Terentii's, each whipping their heads around at him, smiling with a wicked grin. "You will come for the sceptre," taunted the one behind him, the one that led him to the door "but you'll stay... because you're DEAD!" It split itself into two different beings, blocking the exit, while the unoccupied ones closed in from the left.
Leonidas growled and faced left, keeping the copied Terentii's at bay with quick jabs from the spear, but the attacks never seemed to stick, and they never lost their grin.

OOC: GAH!! Computer has been OFFICIALLY locked, can't use without permission...this might be my last post for quite a while.
"Wow," Teo said starring at his exploded bag of candy. "Now if we can find the scepter, or something of Terentii's...or his siblings...we could get out of here then!" Something caught Teo's attention, a bright gray cube-like thing. Teo's eyes gleamed at it. "I remember this thing!!" He dashed at it, jumping from the mallet he was sitting on, sending it backwards and him forwards. He intercepted the cube-like thing which turned out to have straps. "I remember when I lost this thing! It slipped off my back in mid-air and I fell down, seeing it soar over the horizon." Teo reached for a lever by his side and a small pipe came out the bottom of the cube-pack. Teo pulled the lever slowly as smoke came out the pipe, then a slow trickle of flame as Teo started moving. "It's my old jet pack! It should get us around here pretty fast." Teo pushed a button and let aluminum-looking wings sprout, in addition to two handles on a string. He pulled the one on the right and the right wing bent in. "If you need to use this Tempest, just don't destroy it...I doubt though it will take us out of here...even by hitting the switch at the top." Indeed, there was a small switch at the top...engraved near it, 'touch and bye!' Teo thought to himself, odd, I can keep calm in some situations, and in others, I can't help but act three.
Teo used the pack to get back to the mallet with the whole gang and took the pack off and handed it to Tempest. "Here, you'll probably use it better...anyhow, I can't obliterate items and free us from here. You can go around looking for it, I'll stay here and see if I can find the scepter floating by or something, I hope you can get us out."
OOC: If anyone wants to character control me, I'm free.

Yoshee was thinking about her answer about the candy when Tempest threw it away and zapped it. So much for that. But then, it exploded and left a portal that could very well lead out. "Wow!" She exclaimed. Tempest talked about finding something of Terentii's, then Teo gave him his old jetpack. "There should be something of his in here. What if he fell in? He'd know how to get out." Yoshee said, trying to be helpful. "Maybe it is the button that gets us out?"

Yoshiken shot a fireball directly at the Terentii in the center but he put out his hand and the fireball instantly diminished, "Wh...what did you do!"
"Foolish yoshi...did you really believe you could defeat me?"
Yoshiken ran up and grabbed one of the Terentiis by the arm and flung him into the wall, "Yes! and i still do!" Yoshiken delivered a roundhouse kick to another but before he could do anything else he felt an intense gravitational force pulling him down to the floor, He looked at one of the Terentiis using some kind of sorcery to pull him down to the ground. The rest of the Clones followed what he was doing and the force became stronger. Eventually Yoshiken couldnt move and they were able to apprehend him.
They carried him away and he could do nothing to stop them...

OOC: Alright, this RP is dying off...if it's gonna die, I'M going to be the last poster!!
Teo looked around the space, Tempest apparently hesitating wether to take the pack or not...so he took it back. "Alright, I'll look for the bliss scepter myself mind you..." Teo said slowly pulling the lever so it hung in a some-what quarter open position, a slow spewing of flame ejecting from the back, propelling Teo forward.
Teo pulled out one of the wings, but there was no gravity...or air really...and the wings did not steer. "Confounded..." he said angrily. Just then...a feeling of joy started slowly creeping around him as he held still...and it grew. Teo started to smile...a bit unwillingly...as he turned around and a magnificent gold scepter in a dramatic position, but it seemed to stare happily upwards, its hands together. Teo let his tongue reach it and felt it stick to the target, and reeled it in. Teo grabbed the scepter and relinquished his tongue, pure joy on his face, and headed back towards the others, the handle to medium, propelling him forwards at an alarming rate...on a crash course.
In one fell swoop, Teo channeled his energy into the scepter, shattering it, and openning a portal, sucking the yoshis in, and Teo appearing at fifty miles an hour, through a series of red beams, shattering a glass cassing, and grabbing hold of the real scepter, obviously triggering an alarm.
