PLOT: WISE SNAKE'S EMERGENCE

[theearth]

Who: OPEN.
When: March 9th, Sunday, daylight hours.
Where: The business district of Locke City.
What: An enormous snake monster is pissed.
Warnings: Violence.

[The alien explodes silently - but it explodes.

First in a small cloud of hot (rose-scented) gas - those there to watch its final moments will want to step back.

A ripple in the air pulses - heavily - from where it once was, with absolutely no sound and color, but penetrating force. Anyone standing within two miles of the point of origin will feel a push, with those closest guaranteed to be knocked off their feet and temporarily dazed. Cars swerve and crash. Staff in the nearest office buildings launch into disarray. There’s no shielding from the blast - it can be felt through walls, through structures, in the air, and underground.

And it is felt underground.

The entire business district starts to shake, abruptly, jarred to a stir by some movement. It rises over the span of a long half-a-minute to the magnitude of December’s earthquake.

Tuning Towers experiences the worst of it - windows are smashing and objects are shaking loose and falling from the upper floors.

It finally ends - with screaming - as the head of an enormous pink snake breaks the lobby floor.

It flows its way quickly out of the hole it’s made, breaks itself another hole ever so politely through the main entrance doors, which were not meant to accommodate a twenty-foot-tall-and-wide exitor, and as it draws the last of its tail out after it, the quaking dies down.

It’s now roaring its way through the streets of Locke City’s business district - all several hundred meters of Wise Snake, emerged in the flesh (or stone?).

No regard for the walls of buildings, streetlamps, civilians, stopped and blindly pulled-over vehicles, anything else on its course - in a frantically-awakened, unrestricted rampage.]

[Oh wow- it's kind of like Unicorns cockpit, but not really... she's probably only thinking that because it's the inside of a robot with a chair and controls.]

Thank you~

[She waves to Eugen, her smile soft but tired. He looks at different than she imagined, but it's probably because his robot is so large.]

[strikeraid]

[ ... He's not sure if he likes this guy yet, but it doesn't seem like he's out to be unfriendly. He'll stare at the guy impassively, then hop into the cockpit, rolling Holly gently off his back and onto the floor between the seat and the back wall. HE IS WATCHING YOU, MYSTERIOUS STRANGER. HE IS WATCHING YOU CLOSELY. ]

[buildyourworld]

[ He nods to acknowledge Holly's gratitude but he's too anxious to actually hold a conversation right now. He notices the look from the boy but ignores him for now since he has more important things to do, like piloting the Gundam. ]

Hold tight. [ Once the both of them are inside, he closes the hatch of the cockpit. Eugen guns the control forward, moving the Gundam towards of the safe route he saw earlier, carefully avoiding law enforcers and civilians who are out on the streets. ]

[keywarding]

[Holly's watching the little bit of screen she can see from where Skyler set her down, leaning heavily against his leg before finally she's gone.

Sorry everyone, leave a message after the beat, Holly Avalon needs a long nap.]

[strikeraid]

[ Sleep well, lil' lady. When he feels her head on his leg, he'll crouch down and lean her on him more fully so he can protect her from any sudden robot movements.

He'll take this opportunity to glare forward, the expression blocked a little by his shades and bandanna. When he speaks, he's growling in his low Key voice. ]

Where are you taking us?

[buildyourworld]

[ Yes, do that and better hope no one try to stop the Gundam by doing anything drastic because it will not be a fun ride in that condition.

Eugen is not normally rude to stranger unless they give him reason to be but he certainly doesn't appreciates one being rude to him, especially in situation such as this. ]

Save your growling for someone who cares. [ Not looking away from the screen, he steers the Gundam off the current street when it's obvious he's being pursued by Guards. ] Getting you two out of here unless you want to taken into police custody.

[strikeraid]

[ Still not havin' it. He's not trusting this guy for a second, even though it looks like he's doing his best to get them all out of there. Things have been too weird and stressful already. ]

How do you know her?

[buildyourworld]

[ If Eugen is any meaner, he would have open the cockpit and throw him out for being such a rude and ungrateful ass. ]

Who did you think was taking hits for her when she's attacking the snake? Now shut up. You're distracting me.

[ It's a good thing that the Gundam is more efficient than normal vehicle or this will be a very long ride...]
