::Ash leads his ragtag band of Edward Elric, Number Six, Chihaya, Aeryn Sun, Cameron Mitchell, and Cally across the grounds::

::Their goal is to reach the Dorm Tower::

::Their obstacle is the numerous hordes of zombies between them::

::This is the tale of that struggle::

Seimei knew it was time. Nodding to Mitsumushi to stay in Spider's apartment, he headed to the dorm building roof. He could see the tower and the vortex of evil that swirled above it.

His charts had indicated this would be the center of the problems and he now had verification.

Tapping his fan to his lip, Seimei let his hair down and snapped his fan open.

Intricate steps started small, building slowly in intensity as Seimei danced, working his wards and seeking to gather the energy needed to send to the valiant people fighting their way toward the tower to stop the evil.

The hacking and slicing of the zombies was getting much more tiring than the shooting was, still for some reason Cameron felt himself feeling more energized instead of getting tired. With a powerful slice, he managed to behead two zombies who were creeping up on him and Cally.

Thanks Cam! ::suddenly the burns on her hands seemed less painful, and she had renewed sense of energy::

::torches another pack of shambling brain-eaters::

Motherfrakkers! I had plans this weekend!

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

You too?

*guts another zombie and wonders if he's every going to get clean again*

Nothing major... ::flamey burst::

Just gonna go dress shopping with Rogue... I don't even know if there's gonna be a shop left in town after all this! ::wipes her tears away with her forearm again::

I think anything beats this. *growls and charges at a group of zombies who don't seem to know what's happening as Cam hacks into them*

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Ha! Nice one kid!

::laughs maniacally::

::uppercuts a zombie's head clean off::

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"They're working on my nerves."

A zombie grabs hold of his arm and Cameron tears away, the zombie's nails scratch his skin, but he ignores it as he hacks at it until it falls down to the ground. He huffs and heads for the next one.

::winces again::

What did you have going on?

::flamey Zombie re-death, rawr!::

Date with Vala. *knows he should be tired and sore by now but keeps hacking into the crowd of zombies, getting splattered by goo*

Number 6 starts to get a gleam in his eyes. His usual reservations are dropping away. "Come and taste steel you bastards!" he screams, charging head first into a large gang of zombies. "My life is my own! Yours is forfeit!"

[positive-angel.livejournal.com]

Watching the charging guy with interest, Chihaya decided he needed something to say to sound cool, but couldn't think of anything. So he poked at another zombie, managing to run two through in one stab, making him very happy.

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Keep up the good work! We're getting closer every minute!

::dripping with zombie splatter, and the chainsaw is beginning to sputter a little::

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

Number 6 is soaking in the blood of zombies. He's shed his jacket and is fighting in a ripped t-shirt. His sanity at this point has gone bye-bye. "I'm going to destroy every last one of you! Take my freedom to breath, will you? I am not a foodstuff! I am a free man!" He jabs his sword up the nasal cavity of one zombie and skewers its cerebrum.

"Who wants some!?!" he screams, not quite realizing he's probably co-opting somebody else's catchphrase.

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Get your own lines, kid!

::eviscerates a zombie::

[defiantlyyours.livejournal.com]

*notes this, faces down another horde of zombies*

*he punctuates each word with another decapitation*

I will not be bitten, chomped, masticated, devoured, gurgitated, regurgitated, or defecated! Now, go to hell!

A walking, talking, killing thesaurus. ::shakes his head::

Glad your on our side.

::carves through a zombie only to have his chainsaw sputter and stop moving::

Oh, this isn't good...

Edward dove head-first into another group of zombies, some invisible energy field lending him more speed and stamina than he thought he had. He sliced and stabbed at the walking undead, not bothering with shouting anymore after his first taste of zombie gore.

Stabbing one upwards through the chest he balled what remained of the creature's clothes in his left hand and pulled it over, flipping it up over himself and removing the head barely as the body had slammed into the ground.

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Ten points for style kid, but don't get cocky!

::disembowels a zombie, before slicing of its head::

::chainsaw begins sputtering louder::

Oh, you have got to be kidding me...

[alchemic-bean.livejournal.com]

"Cocky?" Edward repeated, dodging around a few more zombies. "You ain't seen cocky yet!"

That said, Edward clapped his hands once and retracted his automail blade, then clapped again and slammed his hands on the ground. A glowing array about ten feet in diameter seemed to run under the feet of shuffling zombies and with a burst of alchemic energy, the ones within the array all caught on fire.

"Whew," Edward muttered ... for some reason manipulating alchemy was more draining than usual ... better stick to the old-fashioned way of doing things. One final clap, as he dodging a flaming zombie, and he grabbed a street sign, transforming it into his signature spear. Time for something with some range.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Now that is cool." Cameron said in awe. He was still recovering from the attack he and Cally just went through, but he already felt his muscles forgetting what they had just been through.

[alchemic-bean.livejournal.com]

"I only wish I could do something bigger," Edward said, whirling his spear about him expertly. "Something seems to be blocking my access to alchemy, I can only do small concentrated bursts, like the weapons." Stab, thrust, knock a zombie's head off and kick the stumbling body over.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

Trust me, this is big in my book. *hacks away*

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Kid! I need your help! ::points at his chainsaw:: I'm outta gas... can you just... solid-up the blade for me or something?

[names-ash.livejournal.com]

Believe me kid, I see cocky when I look in the mirror in the morning!

::Chainsaws: they slice, the dice, they even make julienne zombie::
