The Liquid Wallaby - WW2Allaby

[Chaos Crescent]

She laughs.
"No, no. I can't stand animals".

'Nevermind then. That explains something.'

[TotallyNotEvilLand]

'Right want a drink or whatever?'

"A water, preferably. Amelie's trying to save the booze to use as disinfectant and painkillers."

He shakes his head.
"The coffee here is all surplus rubbish. And there's no sugar or milk to be used in it. You find these things out by working behind a bar counter."

James looks over at him. "We'll be getting better material once we can start running full-on raids and assaults on supply tracks. In the meantime you'll have to make do with the crappy stuff... There's a Reil dame who makes a damn fine pot of coffee in the camp, though. You've just got to have an interpeter with you."

[Ava Ire]

Ava snickers.
"Rubbish, huh?" She picks up the coffee to try it out anyways.
The Wispy Demon in her arms protests, violently thrashing about.

"Oh god!" The piping hot coffee in Ava's hand flies through the air... And finds its way onto Dominic.

"EEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!"
Dom collapses to the ground and violently thrashes about, reminiscent of that one time in The Steel Builidng.

Ava screams.
"Oh crap! I'm so sorry!" She drops down to his side.

Ira just watches it all go down. She begins cracking up.
"Kheehahahaha!"

[Chaos Crescent]

'Right want a drink or whatever?'

"A water, preferably. Amelie's trying to save the booze to use as disinfectant and painkillers."

'That makes sense right I'll get you water then.'

Does just that and give her the water. Sit and waits for her to ask for anything else.

Ava screams.
"Oh crap! I'm so sorry!" She drops down to his side.

Ira just watches it all go down. She begins cracking up.
"Kheehahahaha!"

"Ungh.... It's fine...."
Dom groans.

"A water, preferably. Amelie's trying to save the booze to use as disinfectant and painkillers."

'That makes sense right I'll get you water then.'

Does just that and give her the water. Sit and waits for her to ask for anything else.

She drinks it and sighs. "This place is so miserable even the water looks depressed." It seems to have a rather eerie dark blue tint to it.

[Torrocca]

Somewhere in northern Tinell, a few hours before now, in an abandoned factory, a small group of Torroccan soldiers almost entirely unaffiliated with the one in the compound containing the Wallaby were holding their positions with machine guns and rifles against the German forces there. Being in the nearby vicinity of the factory meant that Johan and his platoon were to be sent to clear out the factory of this armed resistance at any costs. Four halftracks parked behind a building just barely hiding them from the viewpoints of the factory, giving them time to gather up without worry of being shot. The deserted town block, strewn with rubble and debris, left the men with an odd mixture of the feelings of both peace and and fear, the former due to the quietness of the formerly sprawling city, and the latter due to the unnerving sense of their lack of knowledge of what horrors the Tinellians could be hiding under all those piles of rubble.

As Johan made his way to the edge of the building while his men gathered up, he found a lone soldier hugging the wall with his back and gripping his rifle tightly in his hands, nervously glancing around up until the Leutnant approaches him and asks, "<soldier, what's going on here?>" "<We've got some of those bastard Torroccans held up in that factory over there,>" the soldier replied, nodding his head in the general direction of the factory, "<about twenty of them. We gave them a chance to surrender, and they shot two of my men.>" Johan nodded, peered past the wall, and quickly recoiled back as a machine gun opened fire on their position. He waved over Unteroffizier Rupert, who dashed over to him and asked, "<what's the situation, sir?>" "<twenty men held up in the factory. I need you and the rest of first squad with me. Second and third should flank around the left, while fourth gives us cover.>" Rupert nodded and ran back to the platoon, informing them of their orders before ordering them to go on their way.

As 2nd and 3rd squads flanked around the building to the far left flank of the Torroccan positions, Johan and his men pressed themselves up against the wall of the building, preparing to charge right for the front of the factory. The men of 4th squad, as well as the soldier from another unit, turn to him, waiting for his next order. He points at the soldier and says, "<you're with me. Fourth squad: on my command, provide covering fire,>" he says, moving from the edge of the building so his men could prepare to provide cover. He waits a moment until they're all in position, then nods to the squad's commander, who shouts, "<COVERING FIRE!!!>" three men move around the corner and open fire on the windows of the factory as Johan shouts, "<go go go go go!>" leading four men to the smoldering corpse of a tank. As they cross the street to it, the machine gun on the fourth floor of the factory opens fire, forcing the men providing cover to get into it themselves. The gunner focuses his aim on Johan and his men, his shots lingering dangerously close to them. As they reach the shelter of the wreckage, one man catches a bullet through the leg, sending him tumbling into cover, crying out in pain. Another man grabs him and pulls him up against the blackened metal of the vehicle, providing him with first aid assistance to prevent him from bleeding out. Johan turns to the remnants of his squad and orders, "<you men! Get to that position when we start shooting!>" pointing to a brick arch in front of the factory.

The Leutnant popped out of cover and began to fire at the fourth floor window, assisted by the two men with him not helping with the wounded man. Five soldiers sprinted out of cover and made a beeline to the archway, just barely making it as the machine gun began to start singing its song of death once more. The men at the archway, in turn, providing covering fire for Johan and the men with him, and they made it to the remains of another building, a destroyed brick wall connected to a pillar of brick, which remained mostly untouched. They were out of reach of the machine gun, leaving them free to break into the factory from the right flank. However, as they peered around the corner, a rifleman on the second floor opened fire on them, forcing them back into cover. Johan quickly reacted with a burst from his SMG, suppressing the man and forcing him into cover. Johan, however, figured him to be dead, and turned back to his men a moment later. One asked, "<did you get him, sir?>" The other backed up a bit, saying, "<maybe he's running to get the others to sh->" just before a bullet pierced through his chest, just missing his heart but tearing through his lung. The young rifleman stood just next to him ran and knelt next to him, placing his hands and putting pressure on his wound. Johan knelt nearby and grabbed the dying man's hand, holding it until the Torroccan man began to shoot at them once more.

"<We need cover, sir!>" the boy said as the rifleman's shots came increasingly closer to them, missing by mere inches. Johan ran back up to the pillar, braced his arm against it, and opened fire again on the enemy soldier's position. The young boy turned back to the dying man, whose face was covered in blood, saying quietly, "<just hang in there, Hagen.>" He kept pressure on the wound for a few more moments until the man finally expired, either from choking on his own blood or from asphyxiation. The young man slowly grabbed his rifle and went back into cover, glancing at Johan, who was staring at the dead man. The machine gun went quiet for a moment, causing them to turn their attention to the archway. Suddenly, a the roar of a rifle firing echoed through the air as one of the soldiers, Lennart, fell, a bullet in his abdomen. He began to scream in pain, grasping his wound as the blood began to soak through his uniform. One man pulled him behind the archway while the rest covered them, but the man continued to scream through the intense pain.

Johan stared for a moment, wide-eyed, before turning to the soldier by him and saying, "<Ludwig! Go!>" He turned and opened fire on the window the rifleman was previously firing from, shouting, "<go go go go go!>" as Ludwig ran across the open ground into the factory. Johan soon followed behind, under fire from the rifleman he himself was just shooting at. He manages to get into the factory just after Ludwig, following him up the stairs. The Torroccan rifleman himself is seen running up to the fourth floor, shouting to his comrades that the duo have breached the interior. Ludwig quickly aims and shoots him dead, and the two advance upstairs, unhindered. As they go up, gunfire erupts downstairs, as men from the platoon enter from the far left side of the factory. The two reach the fourth floor, stopping momentarily and preparing to take out the machine gun nest. They listen carefully, waiting for them to reload, before rushing in, aiming and shouting, "<put your hands up! Hands up! Surrender!>" The Torroccan men wisely do so, and, soon enough, the gunfire downstairs ceases, and the two men march the three Torroccans downstairs.

The platoon gathers up outside of the factory, two men carrying the unconscious Lennart away on a stretcher, while another two move Hagen's body into a bag. Seven Torroccan dead are dragged out of the factory, and the remainder are put into a circle as prisoners. A moment later, a truck and a car pull up to the scene, and an officer and a squad of SS soldiers step out from both vehicles. Johan salutes the officer, who returns the salute and says, "<Leutnant? I'm taking over from here. Take your men back to base.>" The Leutnant nods and orders his men to return to the halftracks, as the officer says something silently to his men, going almost unheard by Johan. He turns a moment later to see the Torroccans lined up against a wall, with the SS men in their own line about five meters away, rifles aimed at the prisoners. The officer looks on for a moment, then says, "<fire.>" The rifles fire in near-unison, and thirteen men collapse in the war-torn streets, dead.

'That makes sense right I'll get you water then.'

Does just that and give her the water. Sit and waits for her to ask for anything else.

She drinks it and sighs. "This place is so miserable even the water looks depressed." It seems to have a rather eerie dark blue tint to it.

'Yeah. Well least you are surrounded by friends and annoying people.'

Stares at the water curiously then shrugs hoping he didn't just made her sick but realizes that's probably not possible.

'Yeah. Well least you are surrounded by friends and annoying people.'

Stares at the water curiously then shrugs hoping he didn't just made her sick but realizes that's probably not possible.

"It's wonderful, really."

[Ava Ire]

Ava screams.
"Oh crap! I'm so sorry!" She drops down to his side.

Ira just watches it all go down. She begins cracking up.
"Kheehahahaha!"

"Ungh.... It's fine...."
Dom groans.

Ava sighs.
"I'm sorry... I always manage to do this..." She helps him up.

Ira doubles over in laughter.
"I see karma has been kind to you, Dom! Baahahahaha!!!"

[Chaos Crescent]

'Yeah. Well least you are surrounded by friends and annoying people.'

Stares at the water curiously then shrugs hoping he didn't just made her sick but realizes that's probably not possible.

"It's wonderful, really."

'Yup. So after you spend time with your younger self, what'll you do? You are ruler now well will be.'

[Barboneia]

"Ungh.... It's fine...."
Dom groans.

Ava sighs.
"I'm sorry... I always manage to do this..." She helps him up.

Ira doubles over in laughter.
"I see karma has been kind to you, Dom! Baahahahaha!!!"

"It's almost as if you think it will stop me from loving you."
Dom kissed her on the cheek and smiled, before giving Ira a look that says "Don't make me have to collect on those bar tabs today".

[Torrocca]

Torr goes and gets some bandages for his new leg wound from the goat.

[Ava Ire]

Ava sighs.
"I'm sorry... I always manage to do this..." She helps him up.

Ira doubles over in laughter.
"I see karma has been kind to you, Dom! Baahahahaha!!!"

"It's almost as if you think it will stop me from loving you."
Dom kissed her on the cheek and smiled, before giving Ira a look that says "Don't make me have to collect on those bar tabs today".

Ava kisses him. "I know... I think you should stay away from me when I have coffee though. Bad things seem to happen to you..."

Ira just cackles, smirking.
"What's wrong, Dominic?"

[Barboneia]

"It's almost as if you think it will stop me from loving you."
Dom kissed her on the cheek and smiled, before giving Ira a look that says "Don't make me have to collect on those bar tabs today".

Ava kisses him. "I know... I think you should stay away from me when I have coffee though. Bad things seem to happen to you..."

Ira just cackles, smirking.
"What's wrong, Dominic?"

Dom giggled a bit, before turning his gaze back to Ira.
"At least I'm not terrible at picking significant others. You lasted like, what, 2 months with Drake? Sad."

[Chaos Crescent]

Ava kisses him. "I know... I think you should stay away from me when I have coffee though. Bad things seem to happen to you..."

Ira just cackles, smirking.
"What's wrong, Dominic?"

Dom giggled a bit, before turning his gaze back to Ira.
"At least I'm not terrible at picking significant others. You lasted like, what, 2 months with Drake? Sad."

'I thought it was less. Well whatever.'

[Ava Ire]

Ava kisses him. "I know... I think you should stay away from me when I have coffee though. Bad things seem to happen to you..."

Ira just cackles, smirking.
"What's wrong, Dominic?"

Dom giggled a bit, before turning his gaze back to Ira.
"At least I'm not terrible at picking significant others. You lasted like, what, 2 months with Drake? Sad."

"At least I'm not a miserable, spoiled cunt. So shriveled and angry".
She glares.

Ava shrinks back a bit.
"L-lets not fight now..." She says to the both of them.

[Barboneia]

Dom giggled a bit, before turning his gaze back to Ira.
"At least I'm not terrible at picking significant others. You lasted like, what, 2 months with Drake? Sad."

"At least I'm not a miserable, spoiled cunt. So shriveled and angry".
She glares.

Ava shrinks back a bit.
"L-lets not fight now..." She says to the both of them.

"I actually worked to make my fortune, you thot. What, did all your fancy technological rubbish just happen to fall into your lap?"

[Chaos Crescent]

'Grah. Someone drink with me! Anyone I don't give a fuck who just drink with me!'

[Ava Ire]

"At least I'm not a miserable, spoiled cunt. So shriveled and angry".
She glares.

Ava shrinks back a bit.
"L-lets not fight now..." She says to the both of them.

"I actually worked to make my fortune, you thot. What, did all your fancy technological rubbish just happen to fall into your lap?"

She smiles.
"What does it matter if my background was privileged or not? It does not affect my personhood".

Ava just watches the two, appearing nervous.

---

'Grah. Someone drink with me! Anyone I don't give a fuck who just drink with me!'

The goat from earlier walks up to him. It looks up at Drake.
"Blaaaaaaahhht".

[TotallyNotEvilLand]

"It's wonderful, really."

'Yup. So after you spend time with your younger self, what'll you do? You are ruler now well will be.'

"Work on dealing with whatever fucked up changes occur to the time stream... We will have to change some things significantly in order to deal with Alutia's mess."

[Barboneia]

"I actually worked to make my fortune, you thot. What, did all your fancy technological rubbish just happen to fall into your lap?"

She smiles.
"What does it matter if my background was privileged or not? It does not affect my personhood".

Ava just watches the two, appearing nervous.

"Just like you being a self-righteous alien cunt doesn't affect it either? Whatever. Ava, I'm done with this broad, let's go upstairs."
Dom grabs Ava by the hand and leads her upstairs.

[Chaos Crescent]

'Grah. Someone drink with me! Anyone I don't give a fuck who just drink with me!'

The goat from earlier walks up to him. It looks up at Drake.
"Blaaaaaaahhht".

Stares at the goat and shrugs gives it some booze while getting on its back while drinking trying to get completely plastered.

'Yup. So after you spend time with your younger self, what'll you do? You are ruler now well will be.'

"Work on dealing with whatever fucked up changes occur to the time stream... We will have to change some things significantly in order to deal with Alutia's mess."

'I could help? Shouldn't be much of a fuck up. I consider you a friend.'

OOC: LOL Nice. I'd suggest using Font Colour to highlight character dialogue in the future... Makes it easier to read for people with ADD like me.

[Ava Ire]

She smiles.
"What does it matter if my background was privileged or not? It does not affect my personhood".

Ava just watches the two, appearing nervous.

"Just like you being a self-righteous alien cunt doesn't affect it either? Whatever. Ava, I'm done with this broad, let's go upstairs."
Dom grabs Ava by the hand and leads her upstairs.

Ira just laughs at him.
"Oh how scary you are. Goodbye, ape".
She scowls, brooding.

Ava walks with Dom. "It seems... You two have quite the relationship, eh heh..." Ava coughs nervously. "How'd that come about?"
