Corpus Rahkshi

IC: Omega

Omega turned his head round to see another rahk looking at him. He laughed even more. "KILL ME! DO IT! I HAVE IT COMING ANYWAY! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"

IC: Revenge

This Rahkshi was clearly insane, but Revenge wasn't shure he could kill him.  "Actually I have other things I need to do," he said as he hesitantly turned to leave.

IC: Omega

Omega continued to evilly laugh, baiting Phogen's team to attack him. 

IC: Revenge

Revenge left, heading toward the Infirmary.

IC: Raptor

Raptor ran by Squid as soon as he heard the freakish laughter. When he made it to the edge of the causeway, still hidden from sight, he saw the tortured Omega laughing and screaming.

"Time to end your misery... it's only logical..." he muttered as he pulled out his bow and readied an arrow. He aimed, pulled back, and let it fly, watching grimly as it sailed toward his target.

IC: Omega

The arrow hit him in the head. He kept laughing as it hit him. He fell to the ground. "I told you I was going to die..." He said, chuckling. He passed out.

IC: Raptor

Raptor saw the collapsed body of Omega. Was he dead? Or just seriously injured?

IC: Omega

Omega's head trickled with blood. He was not dead. 

IC Phogen

Phogen rolled his eyes, having none of this, and saying aloud "You know, we might need to take him to the infirmary. He seems sick in the mind." This got a chuckle from the crowd.

Phogen walked over, and picked the brute up. She gave a small, curt salute of thanks to Raptor, and a nodded smile.

OOC: Gonna be busy for a little while. Dont do anything rash in the meantime. Assume he/she brought him to the infirmary. Feel free to tag along and talk to her/him.

IC: Revenge

Revenge walked into the Infirmary, quickly heading over to Rider.

IC: Rider

Rider had been busy reading the book Revenge had given him. He had been reading the story about the lone Rahkshi that had taken on an entire Toa team. He shook his head, chuckling. If only these stories were real. 

IC: Revenge

"Are you liking the book?"

IC: Rider

Rider looked up. "Yeah. It's good." Just then Phogen came in with a hulk of a Rahkshi. He appeared to have an arrow in his head. "What happened to him?" He asked, surprised that someone could take down such a brute.

IC: Revenge

"I saw him shouting at those other Rahkshi.  I think he cracked."

IC: Rider

Rider nodded. Palma had been healing him up whilst Revenge was gone. His head was healed but he had to wait a little longer for his ribs.

IC: Raptor

"I... shot him..." Raptor said after walking in, mentally screaming at himself. What had he done?! How were his actions logical?!

Deep down, he knew why.

He was afraid of ending up like Omega.

IC: Rider

"Do you know who he is?"

IC: Rider

"What intrigues me is why he cracked. Do you know, Raptor?"

IC: Revenge

"I think so."

OOC: Raptor went on the tour right?

OOC: Didn't mean it like that lol. I was asking raptor if he knew why Omega cracked. 

IC: Raptor

"I... no, I don't. I just shot him because... because I was scared of his state of mind."

OOC: Also,

Yeah.

IC: Revenge

"He told me to kill him but I couldn't."

IC: Rider

"Hmm... we can ask him when he wakes up. Of course we may have to restrain him to make sure he doesn't hurt us."

IC: Raptor

Raptor sighed.

"I guess you're right."

IC: Fang

Fang awoke alone in the library. The crowd that had gathered around him at the word "revenge" had dispersed, leaving him like everyone else seemed to.

With the collapse, all the anger had left him. He just felt... empty. There was nothing to direct any sort of feeling to, besides himself. He was ready to break Exxan, ready to watch him burn, and all he felt was horror. How could he have gone so far.

With difficulty, he pushed himself up into his sword again. Just the sight of its dangerous curves made him sick, but it was a necessary evil for now. He found his way back to the chair, opened his book again, and stared at the pages, just giving the impression of thought.

OOC: I'll post Hoto in a bit. I'm still out running errands. Fang open to interaction.

IC Poly: I walk up to the deflated surahk. He is hurt somewhere deep. I can see it.

~take advantage~

Shut your mouth.

I quietly speak to him, "You're too hot headed, you know that, right....?"

IC: Revenge

"I would still like to know who he is," Revenge said quietly.  "And who are the others he was yelling at?"

IC

"Did you miss my earlier warning? About Exxan and Phogen being untouchable?"

Dramatic tension crept into the scene as the elastic Rahk closed the distance once more between Fang and himself, ignoring the onlookers.

"I was the one that Exxan took out first, I would know."

IC: Dodge-256

"Okay, Level 1 steps..."

Slowly, Dodge hobbled their way out of the infirmary, still getting the feel for their crutches. They would have to rely on them if they wanted to go anywhere for now. "What was I looking for again... Right." The issue of Fang had came across Dodge's mind while they had been unsuccessfully resting. They had encountered him three times; each time, the two of them had been opposed. Dodge had been trying to do their duty, to use a Matoran term, while Fang would always be trying to get in their way. They were starting to see a pattern... "I could report them to the Headmaster. Recommend a sanity check. Or..." If they didn't go to Tridax directly, who else was there? Phogen...? No, he/she/it/they would likely pay no mind. Maybe... Exxan maybe? He seemed more serious and reliable than Pho. And he was smarter than Cao-what's his name, more straightforward than Chekquars... Exxan then. Dodge continued walking on their crutches through the halls, looking for the Rahkshi of vacuum.

IC: Glass

 

"Err..."

 

With Phogen being okay, Glass caught up to Xara.

 

"You don't seem well. What help do you need? You look nauseous," he asked, worried.

IC: Xara.

"It's not that, I just..." she shook her head in disbelief, "...Exxan beat me. That little nerd leveled up before I did. I just can't wrap my head around it. I mean, look at me. I'm possibly the best fighter in the school. I train every night, and rest well each day. I've put my all into becoming the best warrior I can so that I can reach higher levels. And instead, it's Exxan and Phogen who level up before me. Because apparently, they're smarter than me."

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

IC: The Twins.

The two "confusion" Rahkshi didn't return to their doors that night. Instead, they headed deep into the empty dormitory wing and resumed training, testing out their new weapons. As always, they ensured that no one had followed them, and Silencer shrouded them both in an aura of silence, so that no one would hear them if they ventured into the area for whatever reason.

Three student had already reached a new level. The Twins didn't intend to be left behind. 

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

IC: Exxan. 

Exxan rounded a corner and almost ran into Dodge. "Oh, sorry," he noticed that Dodge was on crutches, and seemed to be... missing a leg. How the karz had that happened? 

IC: Dodge-256

"Whoa!" Dodge fell over. "I-It's fine," they said flatly as they tried to pick themselves up. "Actually, er, was looking for you. Wanted to-ack-talk to you," they stammered as they got back to their... foot, "About Fang. Do you know him?"

OOC: surface keyboard is terrible

IC: Exxan.

"Yes. Unfortunately. He attacked my team during the Naming Day assignment, and wouldn't back off. We were forced to..." he searched for the right word, "...incapacitate him." he sighed, having a bad feeling that he already knew exactly what Dodge was going to tell him, "Let me guess, he wants revenge?"

IC:
Abyssium watched as a Rahkshi woke up and pulled himself up by his sword before sitting down at a table and opening a book. Something about him said he wasn't really reading, though. He walked over to him and began talking. "Are you alright?"

IC: Dodge-256

"Uh... I don't know about that. Actually, I came to talk to you because... I'm finding his behavior troubling. He's... what's it called... Moralist? Anyway... He got in the way of my assignments several times, though it didn't lead to confrontation." Dodge paused, something sounding like exasperation in their voice. "I was thinking of reporting him to Palma or Suvak, to get him a sanity check, but... Would it be wise to preemptively eliminate him before he becomes more of a subversive element?"

IC: Exxan.

Exxan shook his head. "If I went around trying to kill off every student who might be a threat in the future, Fang and his buddies would have a justified reason to hate me. Right now, I haven't done anything to provoke them except defend myself. I don't want to give them ammunition." 

IC Poly: "no one is truly untouchable." I say grimly. "Influence and charm only go so far. Personal strength is what carries us in this world."

~you wouldn't know anything about that. fool.~

I know more than you know, psychopath.

~you flatter me~

IC: Omega

Omega's eyes opened. He scanned the room. What had happened? Why was he in the infirmary? He decided not to move and pretend he was still asleep.

IC: Revenge

Revenge walked over to the unconscious Rahkshi for a closer look.

IC: Omega

Omega looked up at the rahk who seemed to be investigating him. He said nothing, knowing that he had probably got into trouble.

IC: Raptor

Raptor noticed that Omega was awake.

"Oh, hi, I'm the one that shot you in the head,"
