Natasha let spear go and make judo techinc to grab his hand with dagger, throw him down using his own strengh and mass, to make him fall down,pining him to the ground.
Beatrice frowned, seeing how the duel was going. How come her toy was loosing? "What are the defences of that place?" She asked the priest.
@Tjf @Omega98 After finishing her conversation with Taia Miriam took a quick look at the rest of her companions before turning her attention to Kelly. “I think we're all ready to go.” She nodded.
Unprepared for the technique, Gregoire goes down hard, but he manages to grab Natasha and pull him down with him. He moves his blade towards her neck.
"Defences?" The priest asks. "I've never been inside. But it's the resting place of the god Set himself, and of the queen Anai. The forces of darkness in there are great."
@Regin34 @Tjf @majus Seeing how Natasha had engaged in a duel, Mori/Akrem decides to let her do as she pleased. Hoping she had the skills to back it up, as he didn't want to lose his guide. Meanwhile, he moves back toward Eloise. "So, you know who that crusader, and nun are?" He asked, hoping that her research has some information on them.
Natasha decided it enough of playing nice and made another judo technic to break his hand with dagger, to disarm him and awoid dangerous for life.
Beatrice cursed. "You said you could bring us to her tomb." She growled lowly. "Now you are saying you never been there?"
@Omega98 Marching across the city in close order, the guards especially protective, they soon arrive at a large courtyard in the center of the city. At the far end of the courtyard is a ruin leading down below the ground - their destination. In front of it is a chaotic scene: Hundreds of chariots and litters lie scattered and broken, occupants missing. Beside them are a handful of figures. A boyish young man in the garb of a pharaoh, holding a modern rifle, with two buxom women by his side - one who looks at him protectively like a mother, though she clearly feels lust for him as well, and one who has a more adverserial stance for him Spoiler: asddas's Character and retinue Nearby, they see a woman in what look like nun's clothes, modified to be sexy and sleek Spoiler: majus' character She watches a fight - an armored medieval crusader, grappling on the ground with a naked redhead, and losing. Spoiler: Regin's character
@Tjf @Omega98 Some interesting people here... A few of them are definitely from our time, while others are not. Miriam thought as she observed the people in the courtyard. Since Kelly has the orbs I'll let her do the talking for now. She remained quiet and watched the fight between the redhead and the (apparent) crusader, waiting to see who would win and trying to figure out why they were fighting in the first place. At least whatever – or whoever – had destroyed the chariots and litters was no longer there, it seemed.
"If I had to guess, I'd say it's Gregoire De Moulay." Eloise shakes her head. "I know some crusaders searched for the city in the 12th century, but I never read up too much on that." She raises an eyebrow "I suppose they were sent back in time like we were - just from a different starting point?"
Spoiler: Combat Roll D100: 57+20=77 There's a sickening snap as the man's wrist breaks, and he lets out a scream, the dagger falling. "I yield! I yield!" "I said I would bring you here, and I have - we're mere steps from the tomb." The priest chuckles. "Pray tell, did you expect me to hold your hand as we descended the steps? I've already done more than enough to satisfy my instructions." He pauses, as Gregoire's hand is broken. "And that, I suppose, is my cue. I will leave you now." @Omega98 Kelly and Miriam see the fight's abrupt end.
"Any info on that nun over there? Her outfit's a bit too... provocative to be normal." Mori/Akrem gave a second question, grinning as he oogled the big breasted woman of the cloth. "No idea, maybe? But then again, why? Hmm... I don't suppose Anai brought everyone that searched for her in this timeline?"
Kelly had replaced her 'clothes' before her group began their trek. Oddly, she felt uncomfortable in them, despite how flimsy and laughable her priestess attire was. While the fabric that covered her breasts teased her sensitive nipples causing them to stiffen and poke hard against the materiel, the cloth covering her pussy seemed to chaff and she found herself wishing she wore a skirt instead. Surrounded by Max, Ben, and her guards, her hand rested against her lower abdomen. A thought struck her that it'd been hours since someone had fucked her pussy and she found herself wishing for a fresh deposit. As the group walked her hands started to fidget, and Max reached over to take her hand in his as they moved. She pressed herself into his side as their group walked and she found herself whispering "Goddess, I need someone to fuck me." "What an eclectic bunch" Kelly thought to herself as her group arrived and beheld the others at their destination. When Miriam didn't step forward to take charge Kelly decided to take the initiative. "Hello everyone! It's wonderful to meet you all, my name is Kelly Hanson, I'm here with my husband Max," she said indicating Max "and several companions. We've come here seeking entry to... Anai's tomb. As I understand it three orbs are needed to gain entry and we have two of them." She turned to her husband, her expression silently asking him if he had the other two orbs before turning back to the others. "We've been informed that the last orb was directed this way. Is that true?" When her eye caught the red-head standing up she asked, "Wait!? Natasha? Is that you?"
Natasha smile and relase him from the grip on the ground. In normal circumstances she would take some time to humiliated this men, but there is a lot to do so she made it short. "So now you see, that woman is able to fight better than you. As we agreed at beginning, winner will punish loser. On your four and lick my feet." She said order taking the spear. Natasha rise her eyes on coming voice of Kelly, smiling. "Hello Kelly. It been a long time since we meet. And yes, the third orb is already inside in the right place."
Beatrice, turned after the priest, opening her mouth to say something else - but then she noticed that Gregrie was defeated. She snapped at the crusader, and cursed a little. Was sll the bad luck accumulated in one moment? Quickly making her decision, she made her way quickly to her companion's side. She knelt beside him and took a look at his wrist. Slowly, she started changing a spell, healing the injury, mascareding it as a prayer.
After quickly introducing themselves, the group of explorers in the City of Set band together - their goal lying deep in the ancient tomb. Down and down they descend, into darkness, and green flame, attacked by demon and possessed man alike, losing track of their companions, before finally, they reach the bottom. There, in a throne room surrounded by impossibly hot green flame, they see an old corpse - Anai, and are attacked by a beast of massive scale. Finally, the beast, a titan of Set, collapses in its death throes. Looking up, Beatrice, Miriam, Kelly, Natasha and Mori/Akrem see that the corpse that was on the floor is a corpse no longer. Levitating in the air, absorbing the green light that erupts as Set's champion disintergrates. Suddenly, the figure lowers to the ground, and the group of explorers are wracked with pleasure and fear as they see her. She ascends the steps, and takes a seat on the throne, looking over the room with a smile. "Ah, how quaint..." Her voice booms, impossibly seductive and compelling. "I thank you for answering my call. Without you, I would have remained a dessicated corpse. Now, look at me." She chuckles, and as her body regenerates entirely, she gestures to it. "Now, all that remains is this: I have much of my power back, already. All I need is one last favor from you, and I will have my destiny - the true power of this city. Aid me, and there will be no end to your rewards."
"Aah, damn, I should have brought more ammo... or guns." Mori/Akrem panted, realizing that if he didn't have this younger, more in shape body. He'd have probably died, or left behind multiple times already. But then, as Anai seemingly returned to life. "Nnh!" He shuddered as he heard her bewitching voice, "Mmh, This and that are different things. First, how about you give me what you promised first." He managed to reply without his voice breaking from the strange pressure she let out.
{How interesting - to face a character that I controlled some time ago - if at her age she was a MILF, what is she 2000 years later? Btw - is crusader Gregorie with them? } Beatrice looks at the woman with desire... for her power. She shuddered - if she had that power at the tips of her fingers... "And? What is that favour you are asking about? And what do you offer?" The nun asked with leveled voice. She gave away nothing of what she felt.
Natasha have feelings that coming here was fatal mistake, but there was no turning back now. She hold her spear tighter and point it at Anai. "Don't listen to her, she will cast spell on your mind. Remember why we are here." She said to group.
