Apart from all worlds.

Oh, fragging great, the Princess lost it!


When Pale Jaguar starts to wail, Keane turns around a bit and thus catches the grenade's explosion only on the corner of the eye which go instanly dark for a milisecond to compensate for the flash. Frag, what's with these amateurs? Pathologically averse to any kind of negotiation?


"Sorry to throw your heroic rear-guard action, Brainiac, but I am the closest thing to a bulletproof wall we have, and thus I go last. Period."

Pushing Mykael towards the tear, Keane quickly bends down and hoists Jacob's body over his shoulder before jumping through the portal himself.

"Here goes nothing!"

"Yes well, I'm not wanting to take a bullet for you metallic ass, but I don't want the rift to close when this device goes through it. I've only seen it work once, figuring it out in all it's glory will take some time. Now, if you don't mind........ get your ass through the rift." Mykael is somewhat startled by his own aggressive behavior, apparently this man was rubbing off on him.
 

Vela doesn't wait to hear more.

When the reinforcements arrive, she looks back to see the others vanishing into the rift. She quickly follows suit, not wanting to be left behind on this strange and hostile world.
 

"News-flash for you, Brain-Boy, the last time we saw the gizmo in action it went first through the portal. So, unless you fragged this up and are not as smart as you think you are, there is no problem with you ..." at this point Keane grabs Mykael's shoulder with his free hand and then pushes him forcefully into the tear " ... going first."

Yeah, great idea, Brainiac. The guy with the only thing able to get us out of where you are sedning us to stays behind. Suuure.



"Here goes nothing!" (Keane jumps into the tear.)
 

"You don't understand technology do you? The very fall it took could of damage circuits, shorted wires. Either of those could damanger or alter it's program. Whatever you want, I hope your ass gets stuck here." Mykael walks into the tear.
 

As you step through the tear you find yourself falling about 6 feet onto a green plain of grass and plants a small clearing and a beautiful tranquil clearing. The sun shines above you. It's a peaceful, lovely day. And you are alone. The Queen and her posse are not here.


The remote in Mykeals hand has a flashing red light on it's display and a numerical countdown. 27 minutes remaining.

The tear closes above you.
 

"Well now......that's interesting. Apparently, we either have 27 minutes until this world is destroyed or 27 minutes to return home." Mykael turns the instrument over in his hands, trying to get a feel for it. There really isn't too much to it, at least not to the naked eye. Such an item would take decades to figure out, even if the rifts were well known.




ooc: I'd like to have Mykael see what all he can discover about this device. Anything and everything would be helpful.
 

After falling through the tear, Pale Jaguar quickly scanned around at her surroundings before taking out her ceremonial dagger and using it to create a small patch of dirt several feet away from where she fell. She then took on of her arrows, broke it into two pieces then jammed the longer piece into the ground before using the smaller piece to mark where it's shadow fell.

She then stood up and began criss crossing the clearing as if looking for something..

Vela twists adroitly in midair as she falls and lands on her feet, flexing to take up the momentum until she's crouched on all fours. After a moment of looking around cautiously, she rises back to her feet and sniffs the air in each direction.

(using Scent)
 

Keane looks carefully left and right to study the scenery and check for any unusual and/or out-of-place details before doing a fist pump.

"Yes, I knew it! Congratulations, Brainiac, you successfully botched it - unless our Nexus friends did some serious redecorating, which I really doubt."
