Mars Attacks [Plot Event :: Nighttime]

Taking a look at his cell phone, it didn't necessarily seem like they were working. Which to Gabe, it was pretty much a shame when he took a look at his own cell briefly and put it away after noticing no bars. He awaited Belle's answer as to his plan, should they even leave a trail? Was there any point? Those demons seem sociable enough, would they even want to follow it after they killed the rest of the group? "!!!!!!!" Suddenly, it was as if Gabe's hand began to tremble as he felt control over his motor skills fleeting. He couldn't even speak as the sensation in his body was moving closer to belle's neck. But why?!

"!!!" The answer was given to him as Gabe's hands moved very slowly to her neck. The soft voice of the devil herself was as if it was dipped in the sweetest honey, but the mere mention of such a thing would be the greatest sin imaginable. Just how bad did Gabe want to live? Didn't he cave into that same voice earlier to play the gabe because he wanted to live? To play this sick persons own game of russian roulette? "I won't lose!!!" Gabe was saying in his head as his hands were trembling much. "What was the logic in killing this girl? They just got here, Gabe was sure she didn't want to die either.

"!!!!" Little did Belle know, Gabe was haveing a hard struggle in his head. They were in cover, maybe the voice was just trying to scare him. The crowd was going to be killed, and even if Gabe wasn't ok with that, he was powerless to do anything about it. "What would Shotaro do?" Gabe would say in his head as he continued with struggle. Though, Gabe remembered one chapter when Shotaro was faced with only one option available to him, which was given to him by someone else Even if that was the case, other options are made available in time, they would reveal themselves. "I'll take my chances then!!!" Gabe would say in his head with a defiant voice and retracted his hands."

After that, he would look to Belle with a sad smile. " I'm sorry, i'm a bad pick. I'm no hero, but we shouldn't stick together. You should go home, maybe it's safer in your house. But you should go, far away from me.....we split.... " Gabe was taking his chances, with the demon, and the chance that he could still figure a way out without killing belle. But she needed to leave, right now. It was a gamble, but he was brave enough to take the heavy gamble. If it wasn't a trait of his that he can claim for himself, it was a trait he mimicked from a fictional character he idolized. Once she was gone, Gabe could think.

She didn't even flinch when flames hit near her. It's not like it was the first time the woman ever saw some supernatural fireworks before. But considering the better demons around, this was likely at best a firecracker in comparison. Yet it was still enough to kill the red-head at any rate. Nevertheless, she didn't care, even when the flames encircled around the whole group to prevent their escape. People were likely going to be panicking, but she wasn't. It was just another day to her, but yet it was likely it was the day for her to die.


"You sure you want to try that? I would probably smell bad, being the sinful person I am," she nonchalantly replied to the both of them, "But man. Why are you even keeping us in one place? I thought you two are competing with each other? What's the point of just taking us out when we can't even run around? Where's the fun? Where's the challenge? Where's the part where you make us all feel despair despite all our efforts to stay alive? Do you two even call yourselves demons? C'mon. You guys can do better than that. I know you can."

This likely would provoke them a lot. But she was making use of their competition-like behavior to some extent.  


Touko held up the popcorn, the carton, and the suitcase to their view. At the least it would give them incentives to keep her alive until they kill everyone. If they liked to out-do each other, what better than to have material commemorating their victory? The suitcase was an incomplete tool at best, but maybe something might pop out once someone opens it. Though Touko wasn't going to bother opening at this point.

Strength & Weakness:

Gabe managed to temporarily fight off the influence and send the girl away. That was the best thing he could possibly do for her, but was that the best thing he could do for himself? “no….no…” Gabe watched in terror as he finally saw the look of the voice that haunted him  all day, the cold emotion that oozed from her vocal cords. It was a girl with green hair, even her ghastly presence was unknown. “Gak!!!! Ackkk!!!” Gabe was struggling to get a word in as he was being suffocated by her hands. Who was this demon woman?! Why was she doing this?!” A-alright!!”  Soon after, the mirage disappeared and Gabe looked down at his own hands in despair.

That was the thing, they were his own hands. It became clear to Gabe now, this body wasn’t just his own anymore. Whoever that woman was, whatever happened during his attempt to play whatever “Game” she wanted, it had a powerful presence over Gabe. Was this the game? For him to be a killer or forfeit his life?”


"Hee Human! You're not that weird lady, Ho! So why did you give off her presence? Who are you? I wanna burn you, ho!"

That was not what he wanted to hear, the voice of those "Things" themselves. Weird lady? Is he talking about the person, Gabe met earlier in the night?  That was a lady? No, Gabe had no idea what she was. Was she even real?!" No.." Gabe didn't have time for this, he  started to run, keeping the line of site from an angle so that the demons had to either change their position or move further up from the tree to see Gabe. Either way. He had to make a break for it, running in a Zig-zag pattern in an attempt to throw them off if the fire wasn't so instant. In his mind, it's been echoing over and over again how he had to survive. "why.....didn't I kill her? I hardly knew her, was it because...i was afraid... was it because..... the weight of it all.... " How can you stand firmly behind a decision and regret it a fee seconds after? The fuck?! Was life really like that? WAs life really built upon the corpses of others?"

He refused to listen, he bet on the gamble that the demons wouldn't notice him, and lost. He was willing to sacrifice that entire crowd, he had no problem with any one of those in the group dying, not one. However, he refused, simply refused to take a life of his own. He gambled on their apparent genocide and hopes that the demons would get bored and leave, and he lost that gamble. He wasn't Shotaro, he couldn't get it right every single time. He had no idea what was to happen, but that voice, strange woman as the ghost called it, probably wants Gabe to suffer as much as possible before he died.  "!!!!" A mixture of emotions filled his being, paranoia, regret, despair, sadness, anger, disappointment.

You didn't love her, know her well, or owed her anything at all!! Was she worth it?! Was she Gabe?!"

No....i'm no hero...i......i wanted to live to.....i.........i!!!!

If this was to be his last moments, the apparent description of his being was clear. At this moment.....


He Hated Himself......

Touko flinched as the hot licks of fire met against her pants leg and into her skin. She didn't yell out or anything of the sort while gritting her teeth. It did hurt, but she was still alive while her leg felt really raw from the attack. She was about to return a reply, but noticed their attention was heading elsewhere and someone was trying to put out the fire.


"I'm fine, thanks. Worry about yourself first," she started to wave him away to make him stop, "Their attention is away from us. Better to get going now. Quietly or they'll come back."

She started to leave the site through the opening the demons gave as they have already left the area. It was every man and woman for themselves. For now, this city was proving to be a very interesting stay alright. But first Touko needed to get out of here.

[Exit]

Gabe had no way of knowing that his negative emotions were helping the demons track him, even promoting more violence towards him by feeding off of it. How could he have known to behind with, all of this was unreal. It was a dash of hope to preserve his own life, wishing on his mind that there were a few things he wished he could do over. However, this game of cat and mouse came to n end when pryo jack created some sort of fire wall to block Gabe off of his exit. “is this….the end?” If it was, Gabe would only have a tragic scene to literally be burned into his soul, the last moments of his life being spent with his murderers. However, just before it got any more gruesome, someone came. Well, something came, and whatever it was….


It was only a hero for fun…..

“…….” Gabe struggled to his feet and looked in awe, this snowman was…..going to help him? ”you’re….going to help me?” Gabe felt the tears fall down in his eyes as a sign of relief, maybe he wasn’t left behind afterall.

"..........." Gabe looked stunned as to what happened. As a matter of fact, he has no idea as to what just happened. "....." After holding the pumpkin seed in his hand, Gabe felt as if he needed to keep it close by. It was like a souvenir of the experience that he basically..experienced today. " Wait, my family!" Gabe couldn't stay shocked forever, he needed to head home to see if his family was ok. Rushing back with the pumpkin in his hand, Gabe wondered if he would ever meet that strange creature again? Maybe just like Bartholomew Hartley, he could write a book of his own. A book about his night, with the hero....." A snowman, who can defeat anyone...with one punch...."
