Monster attack

[fh-anonymous.livejournal.com]

Shots can still be heard down in the town. The troopers seem to be all tied up down there. Which is why it might be disconcerting to anyone watching out the windows to see figures begin rising out of the snow on the lawn of the school. More are moving out of the trees also.

They begin making their way toward the buildings.

[[OOC: If people choose to leave the building to fight, please organize yourselves into groups (preferably in the gym thread) and post your location in the subject line. This will make it a lot easier for me to keep track of everything.]]

The fiery stake renders its teeth harmless as it crashes into Angel before slipping back into the snow to rebuild.

Angel fell down onto the ground. He had no wind to be knocked out of him, but damn it these were nice jeans.

As though this was no interruption in their conversation at all, he said to Callisto "I have instincts. It's not like I try to do the hero thing on purpose."

The sharks circle around Angel, brushing against him.

Angel jerked away. He got onto his feet again avoiding Callisto who is afk and readied the gun. "You know, I never liked fish."

"They're fine once you stick 'em over a fire," Callisto threw a stake at what was hopefully a shark. "And learn to control your instincts, or you'll hero yourself to death."

"Already dead," Angel reminded her.

Re: In front of the gym

"Which only proves my point," C'mere little fishies, Auntie Callisto has something for you. "Heroing gets you dead, fast. And I don't need to be protected."

"I don't think you do," Angel said. He kept the gun trained on the ground. Any second now was going to be more icy teeth and he did not want the shirt ruined too. "But if we're teaming up why shouldn't I take the damage so that you can keep on fighting?"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Because splitting your focus like that just makes you more likely to take unnecessary damage, and less likely to actually kill the enemy!" Callisto found herself humming that stupid bass line. "I know how to take care of myself."

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"So what if I take damage?" Angel asked. Was that a fin he saw just a few feet away or just a trick of the light? "It's not like it matters!"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Because of course it doesn't matter if one of our better fighters gets taken out!" Callisto thwapped him upside the head. "Tell me are you really that stupid, or is it just the matyrdom complex talking?"

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"Ow!" Angel rubbed his head. "Hand with stake! And it'd be fine. You'd still be here!"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"I cannot believe I'm hearing this," If looks could kill the patch of snow she was scanning would have melted instantly. "It would not be fine if you got yourself killed!"

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I'm not saying I have to be killed," Angel said. "Just that it wouldn't matter. There's worlds of difference."

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Wouldn't matter? Of course it would matter!" Eat flame snow shark. "Leaving aside the whole losing an experienced fighter in the middle of a battle, you don't think anyone would be upset that you got yourself killed because you have this insane notion of being worthless except for cannon fodder."

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

"I didn't say I was worthless just that I can take a hit and not worry about - " Angel paused. He looked at her. "Upset?"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Yes, upset." Callisto crossed her arms and glared at Angel. "As in not happy."

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

A small smile touched his lips. "Really?"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto continued glaring. "Yes. Extremely not happy in fact."

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Angel took a step closer. "I didn't know you - duck!"

Though the last word was inappropriate, really, because what was actually coming at them was a shark.

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

Callisto turned to see the shark flying towards them teeth bared. "Frak!"

She threw a stake at it. Pity it fizzled out just as it hit the shark.

Re: In front of the gym

Angel fired a pulse from the gun but it was either jammed or running low on juice. "Tell me you brought sharp things."

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"I always bring sharp things," Callisto drew her sword and tossed another to Angel. "It's just not a party without them."

Re: In front of the gym

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

Angel grinned as he caught the sword. "Seriously. Sex later. I'll go right, you go left?"

Re: In front of the gym

[psycho-barbie.livejournal.com]

"Sounds like a plan to me," Callisto grinned a very predatory grin as she moved to the left of the thrashing snow shark.
