Dino observed Abra put on his show, carefully capturing every aspect of his attitude, his body language and his voice tone. The man looked sounded like a complete psychopath, but he was dead serious. He, along all those other people, were here for his amusement. The tall man stood up from his chair and carefully made his way out of the theater row, clumsily pushing his cross in front of him in order to get to a wider space. When he was finally released by the claustrophobic row of seats, Dino took the liberty of stretching, a couple of his bones cracking.
"Well I'll be damned..." he said leaning onto the cross, arms crossed and head resting onto them, sighing. "I can't even relax between assignments."
Dino stood up, slipping a hand into his coat and pulling out a cigarette and a zippo lighter. With a casual move, he lit the tobacco stick and took a long puff.
"I guess I can only leave when he's amused." he stated, eyes wandering upwards, left arm resting onto the cross and right one flinging the stick around. His facial expression was rather comical, almost mocking. Dino suddenly shrugged, snapping erect in position. With a quick move he turned around and, after mounting his cross onto his shoulder, began moving towards the sunny sweet path. As he passed next to the group of people, he smiled.
"Let's not keep the lad waiting, shall we?"
Without really spending much time in their company, he stepped onto the path.

Nox looked from the group already walking and the group still at the start. He saw the strange rotting, metal man at the group near the back and decided to follow the people up front, an initiative was a good sign and the metal man appeared to possibly be infectious. As he walked the path, looking around, he felt nothing but slight contempt and some slight apprehension. He thought to himself, This place is unfamiliar, to say the least. I'm expecting the worst. And most unfortunate of all, apparently the hapless moron bit won't work this time. I'll give it a bit longer, but if this reaction continues, I had better just reveal what I can do. He reaches the crossroads, and wanting to stay with the majority, waited for the others to catch up.

Z stood up looking at the two paths and back at the woman and her Skeletal companion "seems we're supposed to make a choice. Whether there is a right or wrong or just simply different" Z looked closer at the two options and then held the back of his head and noticed an ambitious and tall man ready to move ahead "Abra can wait. He's not going anywhere. If you want to greet him first" Z turned away from the two options and leaned against the devide between the two forests "I won't stop you. I would love to know which path you two think we should go however" he said to the tall man and looked over at Nox as well.

Grant had nothing to say to anyone in the group. None of them interested him in the slightest. For all he knew they were weak and nothing more than luggage or canon fodder. Grant considered his options for a bit before deciding the pine path was the best route. Grant broke off from the group and went towards the right.

The zombie of Lantern's Cross looked behind him as a woman with a skeletal escort went by him. The man named Nox, a tall fellow and Z went ahead. He was behind the party, something he didn't really mind.
His curiosity however, was piqued with the walking skeleton, he's seen undead before back in his home but he hasn't seen a zombie completely rid of its flesh. It even wore a suit and looked as if it wore it with its flesh still intact. He could make out very subtle traces of an electrical field coming from this undead... does it mean this one is half-alive like he is?
He wasn't sure entirely, he only glimpsed information when the madman who infected him was rambling on about the prospects of discovery and scientific achievement. In those days, he prayed to the Gracious Guide, to help him, to free him. His prayers were left unanswered and the Last Lantern seemed like a distant object in the night sky. Each day of experimentation left him wondering what it was he did wrong to deserve it, and each day he simply resented each action that lead up to his last moment of freedom. He began to blame friends, shame his occupation and cursed the ground he stood on.
He sighed. The thoughts in his head were that of a man but what was he now? He wasn't sure.
Nocturn watched as the rest of the group pondered on what to do. He walked until he stopped where a fork split the group's decisions. He stayed silent as they debated, he metal teeth clenched at the indecision. One man, the first that went on his own, again did just that. He split off to the right without a word. Nocturn squinted his eyes at the man then at the group. Did he want to leave the world or let it kill him?
The indigenous life here was similar to his, only that they were made differently it seems. Literally made of something else. If there were any similarities, perhaps he should actively search for his death. Nothing can stop him anyway, he doubted any of these people could stop something three times their weight.
He silently took to the right where the other had went. He was slow but he would eventually reach someplace. He didn't really care.

Z watched as Grant and Noct walked ahead and Z smirked "decisive aren't they? The first one either has no idea what he's running into or has some strength to back up his walk" Z decided to follow down the pine route. After all pine was harder to burn anyway so if he decided to use his abilities he would be less likely to torch his allies. Z moved swiftly after them to avoid the notice of as many of the others as he could.
He wanted to test how aware they were and if they could hold their own enough to keep up. Z wanted only the strong to be his allies. Z began to slowly approach Noct as he and the Silver haired fellow had gained a bit of ground from going unnoticed or atleast ignored for so long.

Timothy was far ahead of the group, having took the pine path, but he did not seem to notice.
Stooping again to get a blue-raspberry Jolly Rancher, he took in the sights of huge peppermint trees, striped crimson and the purest white, and the bright green of the mint grass.
All blending with the blue expanse of sky, it was a sight to see.
Hearing footsteps, he sat on a conveniently circle-shaped toffee to see who it was.

John reached the path right after Z, and stopped
a few people were taking the route full of pines, and the rest were figuring out what to do
John new that pines usually grew in colder climates, and his armor was most certainly not air conditioned
as he was thinking he noticed Z start moving along the pine path
"guess I don't have a say in the matter" he quietly mumbled to himself "ah well, I prefer that path any way"
and with that, he started jogging to catch up with the rest of the group on that path

Nox looked at the choices of the people around him, people were going the pine route or standing around. He saw both the rotting man and another man start walking. They looked to be fine allies. I'm betting the mileage I can get out of these guys will be good. At least the silver haired one. On the other hand, the path less traveled would most likely have less predators. Nox took the pine path to be safe.

(((OOC: I guess the "tall man" is me, although 'man with the glasses','red coated man','the one holding the cross' would have been more appreciated)))
"I wouldn't call them decisive. That's sign of cockyness and superiority concept." Dino stated, adjusting his glasses gently with his index finger. He himself turned towards the pine tree path and began walking, seemingly following the group.
"Whereas for the paths, I doubt there is a safer one. I'd see it as more of a 'pick your poison' type of thing, savvy?" he slipped his left hand into the pocket of his coat, grasping a handful of bullets. His right hand was still holding a cigarette, which he puffed on regularly.

Z had caught up to Noctern and looked back noticing others had ended up following. It seemed as though everyone either preferred this route or simply didn't want to be singled out. Z was able to hear what the man carrying the cross had said and simply thought that those who acted out of cockiness either had a reason to act so or were naive to what was going on. Either way Z simply thought it would either provide an example for the group or would reveal a strong ally. It excited Z of the idea that some of these persons may have a strength greater than the foes he faced in the past. He sighed dismissing it as a fantasy thought and put his hands in his pockets as he looked at Noct curiously "so Abra brought us to entertain him yes? He mentioned we would face challenges and I believe he mentioned we would fight some others or some things. From the way you move you seem kind of weighed down" Z examined the partially decayed man with his metallic like embodiment "either Abra has a sick sense of torturing some who are not in peak condition or perhaps you are far more than just a sickly man?" Z cautiously reached to touch the mans arm to test physical strength

Noctum looked over his shoulder as Z touched his arm. He wasn't really bothered but instead of saying so, he pulled away; his jaw clicked.
"I am sick," Nocturn said. "Was so even before this."
Suddenly, the scene before them manifested a gruff red bear, it was transparent, reminding him of the magnificent and pristine glass golems that protected the halls of the Gracious Guide but this was obviously different. A wild animal, and it seemed to be angry.
Thr zombie of Lantern's Cross grabbed his metal batons and brought them to bare. He was slow, his usual speed as a crew member diminished but he could still pack a whallop if needed.
He waited for orders from the captain.. then the thought suprised him. Perhaps a bit of his human side did remain, but for how long?

Z grinned as he looked Ahead "I put that much together" he said as he spawned he long broadsword and extended it forward with little effort. He examined the large creature. It resembled a predator but was sadistically characterized as a sweet to be eaten. But it was sentient and just as much of a killer as any predator "guess this is our first display. How does something made of gel manage to kill anything made of flesh?" Z said out loud taking his stance

Nox was lost in thought as he saw a flash of crimson pass his field of view. "Hey look, a bear!" exclaimed Nox, giving the hapless twit bit one last go. "It's pretty big! Maybe it's friendly?" Even as he said this however, he moved back and positioned himself behind the hooded person. He reached inside his jacket and fished out a dart, preparing to dip it into a poison. I don't think the poison will work on it, but it's worth a try. Push comes to shove, I've destroyed ballistic gel with my bat before.
