"Why?" she asks sharply.  "Will it make you into him?  If he rebuilds you?"  She nods at Breekan.  "Or is there really any difference?"

Shal sighs, "I don't know, truthfully. But the last time I asked for help from him, Jess disappeared." She bites her lip.

"And you can't just slap a prosthetic leg on there?" Myitt shakes her head.  "He's really got you guys in one hell of a Catch-22, doesn't he?"

((Haha, weirdly perfect timing.))

"We could try, but I don't know. The last time I tried using anything that wasn't his creation, I lost a toe." She laughs, bitterly. "Any water left?"

Breekan grins darkly. "Well hey, if it'll take loaning you a leg to get you off my back, you're more than welcome to it. Wings make for pretty decent hopping."

Myitt looks down at the empty mug.  "Nope.  There's more inside, of course."  She scoops up the mug and idly brushes bits of gravel off of it.  "I think we should at least move in that direction, yeah?  It's getting cold out here.  I can help bring you in."

Shal nods. "Thanks Myitt. Maybe the BT can get a bouncer to help. Tell him I'll pay my tab if he will." she chuckles at the idea.

Breekan turns to Ossanlin and Applix. He shakes Applix's hand. "How've you been these days?" he asks. He glances at Ossanlin. He squints. "You look... different, somehow."

The ground trembles faintly. 

Myitt snickers.  "Like he'll believe that."

Black ooze starts bubbling out of the grass, sizzling and popping, but not burning anyone.  It's not even hot, whatever it is is quite cold. 

It materializes into a shifting, shimmering iridescent human hand, twice the size of a human, crawling halfway out of the ground.  Then it shifts into a giant black translucent lobster claw-like shape.  The lobster claw flops a few times on the ground, turns liquid and melts like smoke around Shal.  The dark grey mist is cold but not uncomfortable.  Two points of light that might almost be eyes flicker and then disappear within the shifting mass.

Myitt takes a few steps back, shakily reaching for her Dracon with her uninjured left hand, but it's lodged in the left side of her jacket, so as she fumbles for it the bouncer turns into a centipede with several rows of glowing red eyes, its black carapace materializing beneath Shal's body and lifting her a couple of feet off the ground.  It starts to carry Shal on its back, scuttling toward the bar, insect jaws clacking. 

"What the f*ck?" Myitt breathes, staring as it moves past her.

Breekan hears Myitt scream. He turns around and his jaw drops. He reaches into his wrist to pull out his weapon. It's covered with cobwebs. He aims.

The bouncer snarls, the front half of its body already scratching at the bar door and pulling it open with a curled black appendage.  It swipes one of the whiplike projections snaking off its backend toward Breekan's gun hand. 

Myitt finally draws her gun and aims it at the shifting creature, but it's moving and shifting so fast that it's hard to get a bead on it without aiming too close to Shal.  She curses.

Shal remains perfectly still, holding her breath. Her eyes are open wide in terror.

The tendril whips around Breekan's weapon. He panics, and slams the gun back into his arm-panel, with the tendril still attached. The Bartender begins to reel him in.

"What the fargkel!?" he sputters.

((Bouncer xP))

Myitt gapes at Breekan.

<Use the gun, stupid!>

She looks down at the weapon, then aims it, moving as the tendril reels Breekan in toward the bouncer's tail end. 

TSSEEEEWWW!  The shot misses, sizzling the gutters of the bar.  She steadies her hand and fires again, snapping the tendril.

The bouncer yelps.  The tendril vaporizes into grey mist, swirling around them like a snake.  It turns into a thorny vine and wraps around Myitt's Dracon.  She hisses and drops it to the ground, shaking her hand around. 

The centipede-like creature scuttles into the bar, carrying Shal inside.  It deposits her on a reclining armchair and turns back into smoke.  The thorns around Myitt's gun vaporizes and floats into the bar to rejoin the rest of the creature. 

The iridescent black smoke melts into the floorboards, bubbling, hissing...and vanishing.

Shal shakes her head, and looks up at the BT.

"I'll...uh. I'll have a water please...clean."
