Limbo 2.0: How Low Can You Go?

Alex Carpenter wrote:"You know," Alex shouted, his voice weird and echoey as he bulked up from the thing's armor, a kind of righteous annoyance bordering on anger flashing through him, "We're kind of at risk of death here, you want to tell us what the fucking score is, Regan?" He charged at the next guard, bringing a much more powerful blow in against the thing to try to drive it to the ground.


"How should I know?" Regan shrugs. The demon guard fell to the ground with Alex, grabbing for him. Time to break out the grappling rules.

"I don't even know how you got here. God. I'm not to blame for everything, you know?"

Steve Jones wrote:"If she even is Regan anymore," Steve said, warding off any demons trying to get close.


Regan also seems be keeping her distance from Steve. Damn paladins.

One of the remaining two demon guards not wrestling with Alex thrusts a spear at Steve, trying to take him out.

"Oh I dunno, wondering where the hell you went, getting sucked into hell, seeing you turned into some kinda demon queen?" she says, looking pissed. Well, as pissed as Kay can look while petting a ghost dog, which is to say not very.


"Yeah, I get abandoned in hell by my so-called friends, who show up to crash my wedding and blow up my husband and I'm the bad guy," Regan says. "Real cool, Kay."

It was hard to tell if Regan was joking or honestly bitter about this. It was probably both. It usually was with her.

"They said you'd gone, like, super crazy or something! I didn't even know where you were! Not like you would have told me anyway." she says, sounding like she just now came to that conclusion and being rather disappointed by it.

"Why should I gave?" Regan says. "No one probably would have even cared. 'Oh, hey. That dead girl no one likes is in hell again? To me, my X-orcists!''"

Sunny suddenly barks and Regan shuts up quickly. She looks away from Kay, looking embarrassed and a little bit angry.

"i'm sorry"

"Oh yeah? Well we're here anyway!" she says, then stops herself and looks at the dog, then back at Regan. "Wait is this your dog?"

"Yeah, that's Sunny," Regan says.

Sunny cocks his head to one side. Then he barks happily.

"Oh my god, are you for real? Your dead dog, like, followed you all the way to this dumb place, your friends crash your wedding and explode your demon groom who was probably as ugly as the rest of these farts and instead of asking us to help like you clearly want you order these giant dorks to, what, throw us into demon jail so you can keep brooding as the Queen of Shitville? Gosh darnit, Regan!"

"I told them to keep you alive," Regan says, rolling her eyes. "You blew up their king! Would you rather I was all, 'oh hey hi guys' right before everyone ripped you apart?"

Sunny barks again.

"Shut up! It wasn't dumb," Regan says. "You're dumb!"

Sunny whines.

"Okay, touching as this is?" Alex called over as he absorbed the second guard's armor during their wrestling, "How do we get out of here? We can talk about blame and shit like that the- oh HOLD STILL, ASSHOLE!" He ended the statement in a loud snarl, giving the guard's neck a violent jerk.

"So, are you going to show us the way out, Freakshow?"

Kayla was directly adjacent to Regan, fingernails dripping with blood like razor claws.

Steve's eyes went wide and he dove just in time to not be impaled. The blazing cross dimmed as he floundered in gore to get back to his feet.

Brigid gets up from the dead demon, likely quite messy herself, and looks at what she's done.

"I... we need to get out of here..."

"Yeah, I'll just take you right to the exit portal that I never used because I love being here," Regan says, rolling her eyes. "It's hard to believe it, but you're actually dumber than you look. And you look like a someone who was kicked out of Jersey Shore for being too much of a whore."

Haley was hovering in the air a foot or so above the gore, continuing to blast every demon that so much as moved in her direction towards a window. She didn't seem to notice Cal's question.

"A Whore. Wow, you become demon queen bitch after a lifetime of nothing, you get your big moment, and all you can come up with is calling me a whore. Bravo. no, really!"

A massive, Superstrength slap came across Regan's jaw.

"No one ever liked you, you know. First you were the poor little whiney ghost with the massive head wound, and people gawked at you once and then ignored you. Then you got horns and wings, and threw a fit, so people gawked at you again, and then ignored you again. The only time people were happy with you was when everyone thought you were finally gone forever!"

She then spat blood in Regan's face.

Kayla's outburst seemed to draw Haley's attention. She floated downwards and towards the group."are you ever not a bitch, Kayla? God, just shut your mouth and let's work together to go home."

Sunny growls at Kayla. Regan gets to her feet, wiping blood off her face. The cathedral was pretty much empty except for the kids at this point. The demon guards were all dead or too hurt to fight and the other demons seem to have retreated, A burning banner reading "CONGRATULATIONS" drifts to the floor.

"Weirdly enough, this is pretty much how I always pictured my wedding," Regan says. She pats Kay on the shoulder. "Come on."

"I'll take you guys to someone who can help you get out of here."

Alex disentangled himself from the dead guard, standing up to a rather impressive height and bulk now. He did, however, stop to finish off any injured nearby guards if they presented themselves. "Everyone okay?" he asked, eying the cowering demons malevolently as he rejoined the group.

"Yeah, Limbo pretty much sucks," Regan says, taking out her soulblade and carving out a circle of symbols onto the floor.

"The demons are pretty much bullies. Great at killing teenage girls with no powers, but they're really all bark."

Alex looks like he's about to put a hand on her shoulder, then looks down at his big, ichor-covered metal hand and rather visibly realizes how non-reassuring it would be. "You sure?" he asks in a lower voice, though his voice's natural echo probably makes it a little hard to be quiet.

"Is there anywhere we can go that's not...here, Regan? Sort of stay out of sight and out of trouble until we figure out how to get home?" Haley asked, looking far less Galadriel-scary now that she wasn't smashing things with her TK.

"Someone who can help us get out of here, right?" Kay says, desperately focusing on things that aren't dead demons or the gore covering her friends and classmates.

Sunny whines. Regan pointedly ignores Kay's question.

"Haley, don't be an idiot. This is Limbo. Everything is a trap. If it looks safe, it's a trap. If it look dangerous, it's a trap. If it looks like a trap, it's a trap," Regan says. "I don't know anywhere safe."

Finished carving out a circle, Regan walks over and picks up Miranda, putting the unconscious girl over her shoulder.

"But I promise, I'll get you out of here," Regan says. She sounds oddly sincere.

Regan said something growly and the symbols in the circle lighted up.

"Alright, everyone get in," Regan says. "And please don't embarrass me, okay? Don't start killing every damn demon you see when we get there."
