-- (Torg, Alt-Bun-Bun, and Alt-Zoë standing at the bottom, looking up) Torg: Well, that's pretty darn convenient. Still, I expected this /"Demon King's"/ pad to be a bit more upscale. | Couldn't even afford a real pile of bones. This is bone patterned fabric. | OK, I've got a new "Plan A". We break in to the Demon King's pad, break the goodness out and dump it all over the place. Maybe it'll cause enough havoc here to draw the demons back from your home Zoë! Alt-Zoë: What's "Plan B"? I like it better! *"B for Bun-Bun!"* (Alt-Bun-Bun looks pleased) -- (Torg holding out Chaz, who is still glowing) Torg: Sword, can you kill a Demon King? Chaz: Actually with his ethereal nature, even easier than a Demon Lord. See, a Demon Lord you have to strike dead center through his black soul. That or try to hack through his neck-protecting horns and take his head off. With an Ethereal Demon King, it's just a "slash" and it is over. -- (Torg, Alt-Bun-Bun on his shoulder, prepares to climb the hill) Torg: Good to know. Alt-Bun-Bun: I don't like Plan B no more. Alt-Zoë: Can we even get up this? -- (Torg puts his hand on the hill, Alt-Bun-Bun poings onto it) Torg: It's a smooth surface yet sticky enough to climb! Alt-Bun-Bun: All right, let's go! <Poing!> Alt-Zoë: What's making it sticky? -- (Torg peels his hand off the hill) <**Shtuckik!**> -- Torg (looking suspiciously at his hand): Sniff Torg: OK, "Plan /C"/ we make those two demons hide us in... -- (Torg looking behind him, Alt-Zoë smiling, Alt-Bun-Bun on the hill) Torg: *Great!* Where did those demons go? Alt-Zoë: Oh they ran off when you said you were going to /"kill the Demon King."/ You scared them good. Torg: Terrific. Alt-Bun-Bun: Help! I'm shtuckik! | Flag | ||||

Clyde: Blinky, I am *positively stunned.* Blinky: I'm also assuming the payload is a large rock. -- <**STUN RAY!**> -- (Torg and Sasha look at the "(S)panker" lying on the stunned bodies of Clyde and Blinky, just as Crushestro appears with two pistols; Torg cuts a tentacle with a sword) Sasha: Do we try that bazooka-thingy on the monster or do we run for the boat?

Riff: It wasn't hard to figure out. The man who created this city of drugged out zombies sent the whole rest of the world (and any new threats) to another dimension. -- Riff: He's terrified of everyone. Everything. He doesn't trust a soul. He'd never put himself in the tallest building in the city with a big target on it. No. He'd be where nobody would think to look. -- Alt-Rammer: Hide in plain sight? Riff: Too afraid to be that vulnerable. Alt-Rammer: So where nobody would look and it's too dangerous to try anyway... -- Riff: The first "100% human free" facility.
