A-153 emerged from the trees, a few peaceful leaves floating onto it's head and dancing on the surface. "Ah, finally. This looks kinda familiar!" A breathed with satisfaction, dusting the leaves away with a hand before continuing. "It's been 60 something days since I was last here, I hope I haven't worried Aly with my disappearance. Not that I meant to get lost, but these dumb forests are all connected, I don't know where anything is!" It exclaimed angrily, throwing a hand up in exasperation and running into a rock. Prying itself off it quickly looked around, blinking it's lime eyes. It was completely alone. "...It's really quiet today..." It mumbled, a bit worriedly. "Where is everyone?" It wandered around the are where the base should be, checking behind every tree in in every brush. Still, no sign of it's comrades and cultmates showed. Continuing onward, it came to a familiar sight, or what should've been.
The Candle Cult base stood menacingly over A, making the blob squeak with fear. The familiar, comforting blue glow was gone, instead, a volatile orange insignia lay on the base, slapped on there harshly by an invading force. It caused A to shiver involuntarily, filling it's soul with terror. "What happened here?" It rasped, pressing itself to the ground. It looked for a path to run away, but a sudden name flashed to mind. Swallowing it's fear, it slithered under the door in search of it's only friend; Alyxrie.
A zoomed across the captured base's floor like a snake, it's candle occasionally scraping the cold floor. Pulling itself off the ground in an empty hallway, it open it's mouth. "ALYY!!!" It screamed, dropping back down and continuing to run across the floor. It did this in several places, always moving away after it's cry, waiting for a response.

Aly sat sullenly in a corner of her cell, her mind picking feebly at the strings tangled around her wings. Why did this happen, she thought sadly. In hindsight, snooping around the base after she had already found a place to hide was a bad idea, but she couldn't help it. And now she was here, in a cell. She sighed loudly, lying down on her stomach with one of her cheeks pressed against the cool floor.
She sat up again a few minutes later, hearing something call out her name somewhere down the halls. Looking around cautiously for Puppeteers, she called back in a raspy voice, "Here! I'm here!" She cleared her throat then called out again, hoping that it wouldn't attract a Puppeteer. She tugged at the lock again with her mind, but yielding no different results from her previous tries.

A sudden vibration racked it's body. "Here" I'm here!" It sent a dash of energy and bravery through the gelatinous being, fueling it as it flew down the hall, possessed. "ALY!" it screamed again, zooming towards the direction of the sound waves. "I hear you! Aly!" A grin spread across it's face. It's friend was here. Everything would be okay. Aly was smart, Aly could help. Determined and confident, it rounded a corner, and flew straight pass a cell. It then did a double take, screeching to a halt and back tracking.
"Aly!" it exclaimed happily, staring at the girl inside. "What happened to you? Why are you in there? Let's go and find the others! What's that string on your wings? What was with that weird ins- ensih- sign outside?" The barrage of questions began.

Despite the dire situation, Aly smiled. "It's so good to see you, A!" She listened to the questions patiently, and said when it was done, "The Puppeteers took over, the cult. I've heard that there was a traitor, but I was captured so soon after it happened." She had stood up carefully, her bound wings throwing off her balance slightly, and she swung her leg angrily against the bars. "I don't know where the others are, and the strings are keeping me from using my abilities." She sighed and sat down again, looking up at her friend through her eyelashes. "You should run while you still can, you know." She added sullenly.

A listened quietly, one of the only times A ever remains silent. After hearing her last comment, it frowned, shaking it's head angrily. "I'm not leaving you. Besides, I'm really hard to catch! I'll be fine!" It broke out into a goofy grin before reaching between the barrs of the cell, only to get repelled off. A sudden burst of magic threw A onto the ground, causing it to groan. "Well that won't work," it frowned, "maybe I can..."
It's thumb separated, and shot at the barrier at the speed of a bullet, only to bounce back and strike it dead between the eyes. "ARGH!"
Groaning, it began scrambling around the cell. "Come on, there has to be something!" It's voice had a crack to it, and the flame inside it's head flickered this way and that. It would push at a wall, and after being thrown down, go to a different section and try again. It was panicking.

Aly watched anxiously as her friend grew steadily more frantic in their efforts. "Stop, don't hurt yourself," she cried, leaning onto the bars then flinching back when the magic hit her. "I'm okay right now, but if they catch you here they might hurt you." She looked around the halls again, unsure if the magic barrier being attacked would raise an alarm or not.

((Yeah, sorry I was just busy today. I hope this is an okay start,,,))
It was when Addi had finally remembered the tune to the song he was lowly humming that he saw what seemed to be floating goo trying to get one of their beasts out. A bit giddy, he slipped his hand in his coat and pulled out a few throwing knives. To his knowledge of this particular beast, all he had to do was break its first layer. He chuckled under his breath and threw one of his knives into his target, just hard enough to almost reach the second layer.

It growled, whipping it head back and forth. "I don't know what to-!!!!" "Shlunk!"
Instinctively it hardened where the knife struck, cementing it firmly into its head, unsure of what to do with it. The knife had just touched the inner layer, a tiny bit of the tip dissolved in the darker goo.
A whipped around, eyes burning with anger and, interestingly enough, fear at the same time. "Who are you?" It asked, a second hand generating from the lower torso. Both of them hardened at the finger tips, making pointed claws. "Leave us alone!" A crack in it's voice rung out.
Looking over the new arrival, A noted the mask and the strange insignia it bared on it. "You're one of the invaders, right?"

"Invaderr, at first maybe but you are the one doing the invading now, beast." He lifted up a second knife which he had laced with posion prior to the encounter. "Id really ratherr you not take this choice but I have to offer firrst anyways, I will not harrm you anymore if you calmly come with me, beast." He sounded bored at offer and got ready to throw again as soon as the beast gave an answer.

Aly slammed herself against the bars again, snarling and tugging at the strings around her wings harder. "A, don't fight him!" She shouted, "escape if you can, don't worry about me!" She narrowed her eyes and tugged at the puppeteer with her mind, only just managing to pull hard enough to make him stumble due to the sloppily tied strings. There's an advantage to not being significant enough to be tied thoroughly, she thought viciously.

A shot towards Addi, raising a claw... and shooting it at his head. The claws disappeared as it turned into a round orb around Addi's face, attempting to suffocate him. A'd rather finish the fight quickly- or not fight at all.
The other hand began trying to tear at the barrier again.

Addi had been taken by surprise but regained his composure in a second to quickly slash at the bubble around his head with the poisoned blade. The poison had made quick work of the goo, desolving it in a matter of seconds.
"You think you can get rid of me that easy, zvíře? I'm stronger than you think then." He laughed, "And take that as a no so let's have some fun!" Addi threw two knives this time, the first again, going to A, and the second had 'accidentally' hit the shield's operating panel, causing the cell to be less protected. "Oops." He said sarcastically.

With a small scream, Aly tore her wings free of the rope, blood dripping down her feathers from the slashes the ropes had made. Seeing the barrier starting to tear under A's claws, she pulled at the metal bars and opened a hole in the shield. She scrambled out, and wasted no time in taking the two throwing knifes near her and hurling them back towards the puppeteer, burying the knife into his left arm, then shoved him backwards for good measure. "Run, A, come on!" She shouted, tugging lightly at them and running down the hall, blood still dripping from her wings.

In horror, A flung it's goo on the opposite wall as it melted, completely forgetting Addi for a moment. A felt a strike of fear tear through it, and quckly zoomed backwards. "How...!!!" A raised an arm to block the incoming knife, only to have Aly throw them back. Shaking it's head clear, it felt her tug and all to eagerly followed her down the hall. A took a couple of breaths to look at Aly in amazement. "You got out!" It exclaimed with a smile, but quickly frowning at her wings. "You're hurt." A used the goo from it's body to thinly coat the wings. "That should stop the life liquid..." It said, frowning. "But you left a lot behind."
A used it's only limb to grab the knife at the back of it's head and carefully pulled it out, handing it to Aly as they fled. "Here! You can use this mini sword, right?"

Upon having the knife hit him, he pulled it out without a moments thought and took the thread from his hair and wrapped it tightly just above the wound. "Zabiju tě..." He growled and went after the two, glad for the adrenaline rush taking most of his pain away.
((zabiju tě - I'll kill you))
