Detention, Saturday, September 22

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

There was a tall, military-looking redhead - better known to most as Lieutenant Kerrigan - in a sleek metal suit tapping her foot against the floor of the Danger Shop and looking just this side of incredibly annoyed.

"Listen, children, you're obviously here because you did something incredibly stupid. Today, I am going to show - not tell - you how incredibly dumb that is, and how incredibly dead you are going to be should you do something stupid again. Shut up, don't talk, and get the hell into the sim before I personally decide to nail your butts to the wall."

She pointed at a projector on the wall.

Ed Elric

"If your name's not on there, get the hell out of my Danger Shop. If it is and you're not here, then I'm talking to thin air and I'll hunt you down myself. GET!"

Stupid people brought out the military in her.

The Badlands

It's an empty wasteland full of things trying to kill you. And you've got a gun. Kerrigan feels it's not a difficult equation.

Edward eyed the gun uncomfortably as he moved out into the empty areas. "Stupid detention with the stupid teacher and I totally had reading to do today," he muttered, keeping an eye out, but not necessarily ready for an attack.

The Hydralisk had slittered away from its team as an advance scout. Hey, they were already killing the dumb Terrans by the droves, but that didn't mean the danger was over.

Being a polite sort, the serpentine monster decided to make an unearthly screeching noise at Ed from behind before making a move.

Re: The Badlands

He spun around at the noise, slinging the gun over his shoulder as his hands came together automatically.

The Hydralisk went with its first instinct: it spit a needle at him. Stupid Terran.

Re: The Badlands

[im-fullmetal.livejournal.com]

"What the hell?" Stupid needles.

Edward ducked down, slapping his hands flat against the ground.

Beneath the Hydralisk, a spike of earth shot up at angle to try to throw it back.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

The Hydralisk was really wishing it'd gone for that Lurker aspect right now. With a screech, it felt the earth beneath it move and fell back. If it had had human limbs, it would have been flailing.

It landed on its back a little further away, scrambling back up and making a horrible racket while doing so.

Now that he was through the gate, Lee raised his gun and started walking through the area as quietly as he could. Maybe no one would hear him.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

That was about as likely as a needle not soaring right past his head the moment he thought that.

Which it did. The Hydralisk standing proudly behind him might have seemed oddly familiar. It remembered Lee, at any rate.

Re: The Badlands

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"Frakking frak frak frak," Lee muttered twisting around and firing off a shot. "Frakking needles, I hate you."

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

The shot caught the Hydra straight up in the head, just above the vital functions. It really, really disliked this particular Terran.

Giving up on the distant approach, it quite literally threw itself at Lee.

Re: The Badlands

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

"What the frak?!" Lee shouted, trying to twist out of the way of the thing hurtling at him. He was able to avoid getting tackled but the Hydra did catch him on the shoulder, spinning him around and off balance.

He managed to make a few wild shots while spinning and stumbling.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

The Hydralisk screeched as it barreled on by, bullets tearing giant holes in its side. It swooped around to the side, making a lot of noise and firing another needle in Lee's general direction.

Its aim might have been somewhat off.

Ino's first few steps onto the wasteland were tentative. She was tempted just to leave the gun and go on without it - a weapon she couldn't use would only hinder her. "Point and shoot." She studied the gun, "I wonder how much damage it does?"

And what was out here that the made the men think she'd need it.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Little screeching noises accompanied the sudden unburrowing of two Zerglings - insectoid yet meaty creatures with very large claws.

Who were really, really fast, and coming up on Ino from only a few feet away.

Re: The Badlands

[intraspective]

"What the hell are those?!" Ino spotted them and did the first thing she could think of.

She pointed the gun at them, and pressed the trigger, hoping like hell that it would do something useful.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Marine guns were wonderful inventions for people who didn't know how to shoot. One of the two Zerglings got a face full of lead and went down; the other pushed off on its haunches and leapt at Ino.

Re: The Badlands

[intraspective]

Okay! That was helpful, but there was still another one coming at her and there wasn't the room to shot again. So Ino swung the gun at it, like a club, and hoped she would at least stun it.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

With a crack to the head, the Zergling flew back a little. It didn't stun the creature one bit, however: it simply started its assault all over again.

Re: The Badlands

Jack checked the gun over. This shouldn't be so bad. Whatever a Zerg is.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

The three large flying Mutalisks (http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Mutalisk) coming up from the skies begged to differ.

If by 'begged' you meant 'shot' and by 'differ' you meant 'kill'.

Re: The Badlands

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

Jack? Did the running thing, looking for some cover to hide behind before making it back to the gate before these dragon things decided to ventilate him.

Pity the gate was getting farther away.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Weird shapes were popping up around the gate in the distance.

The Mutalisks continued their assault, unidentifiable material smacking into the ground but mere feet away from Jack.

Re: The Badlands

[inthereflexes.livejournal.com]

Jack decided to pull a move from the movies and do a quick turn, catching on to some scrub to help him spin around at speed, firing at the three wingaling dragons, trying to duck under them as they flew over. At least, that was the plan.

Re: The Badlands

[on-her-korhal.livejournal.com]

Jack's plan worked out splendidly.

Unfortunately for Jack, that left him wide open for the three Zerglings (http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Zerglings) behind him to unburrow and launch themselves at him, claws-first, as soon as the Mutalisks flew past.
