Not caring to meet with a psy fighter, Aloc decides to look around for John.

[Xemadus Echina]

realizing that he won't be able to fight whatever it is that is plaguing this town, rainen finds  a quiet place to train on his abilities of healing, fire channeling and projectile redirection.  He also attempts to create a shield out of the particles in the air so that he can block projectiles from hitting him from other directions.  after some time passes he meditates to improve his abilities and then later begins to search for anything of value around the town.

[Steel Ersatz Man]

Um, hello?

[Bromtaghon]

You realize this thread is over a month old, and that Zackirus hasn't been on these forums for just as long?

[Steel Ersatz Man]

Yeah, but I was really getting into it. I wish Zackirus would come back. :'(

[Xemadus Echina]

well at least we still have hell quest.  Not exactly the same but its still similar :)

[Steel Ersatz Man]

Yeah, I guess so, i'll start playing hell quest.

Aloc walks to the nearest exit and he finds himself in a crowd. The crowd appears to be watching some fight that is going on. Aloc looks down and notices two spriggats fighting each other Aloc walks over to where John was and surprisingly he is still there. Aloc sits down beside him and he looks across at you. "Not a Bad Job" he smiles. He gets up and brushes of his pants. Aloc glances over and notices, that him too, where's the blue bracelet. "So, Aloc says" they got you as well. "Yes, but I don't have to fight since I am a healer. I am allowed to join up with any competitor I choose." He walks off and Aloc quickly follows him. "By, the way, Do you know where Al is?" asks Aloc. "The last I saw of him he was going to training because his fight was the fight before yours." Replies John. You two walk until you reach the end of the row and walk down into the stadium. John points to a map that says: You are here. It points to serval different locations.

You meditate, only improving abilities slightly (2 more HP). You walk around town and notice all the eyes hat have glazed over and started almost to look red. Well you are noticing this you bump into one of the people in town. It drops a sack of flour and begins to scream. All of a sudden all the monsters are screaming and the noise is unbearable. You dashe into a house and covers your ears with some pillows but the noise keeps getting louder and louder. The beings surround the house and start to file into the house one by one. Suddenly you see one of their forms flicker. It shows the same human but it looks scared and it has its mouth is CLOSED. The scream is still getting louder though and Rainen feels as though he might pass out at any moment.

Yay! You're back!

Aloc decides to go to the fighters living area to see if he can find Al (if he's still alive) and to see if he can plan an escape.

Hint: I wanna go back to the future! (heheheh. Back To The Future)

Aloc goes to the fighters living area. He looks around and notices a lot of the fighters have swords or daggers in their hand. He walks around for a bit but he can't seem to find Al. In the middle of the fighters area then have this huge fire. Over the fire they have all these bags bundled up and some slaves are throwing them into the fire. He walks over and notices that these are the bodies of past competitors that have died. He walks over to a slave and asks "Do you have any records of who these dead bodies are?" The slave gruffly points to a shabby wooden sign that hangs on just barely to its one string. He searches throughout the names but doesn't find any Aloc's in there. Confused where to go and where Al is, Aloc ponders his next move. John suddenly taps him on the shoulder and whispers, I can feel Al presence but I can't locate it.

'Huh?' Aloc thinks. He sends out telecommunication with his mind but there are too many people. He cannot think of where he might be. Suddenly, Aloc thinks of something, 'I think I just overheard (through my thoughts) some info on where he might be' Not knowing whether it was just him hoping or whether someone really did think about Al. Aloc decides to scan the room again, trying to pick up any information that might be useful...

You scan the room in front of you. It appears to be some sort of storage area. You feel a faint telepathic mind in the distance of the room. You and John run towards the sound and come to a halt. You see Al of his back with around 5 bottles of beer in the floor around him and another in his hand. You looks knocked-out but pretty much okay. He hiccups and opens his eyes. "My....my *hic* aren't you.... *hic*.a pretty lady..." he stutters looking at John. "Oh God!" John frowns. "I just *hic* want to *hic* kiss you" he says. He unexpectedly falls to the floor. He falls back asleep and you guys have to do something about him.

The kid looks at you and says simply "Do you work for the cult?" "No" you reply. Then kid suddenly jumps back and runs towards the west part of town. Looking confused you don't know whether to follow the kid or not. You also remember that your transportation will be hear soon and you might not have a lot of time.

Aloc decides that if Al has been in here long enough to drink five bottles of beer undedected, he should be fine for the night. Also, he hasn't got any valuable possesions on him and competitors probably wouldn't kill him because he's an 'easy kill' in the arena. But, just to be sure, Aloc and John hide him in a corner behind a barrel. It isn't perfect, but he probably won't stand out if someone isn't specifically looking for something.

With Al moderately safe, Aloc and John decide to look around to see if anything or anyone interesting pops up.

1 hour later

Aloc and John are just mindlessy chatting with some drunk spearmen when, suddenly, Aloc realises that Al is in a STOREROOM! People will go in there to look for stuff. After explaining the situation to John, Aloc and him rush to the storeroom. Trying to retrace there steps. If they will be able to navigate around the endless corridors and if they find an unharmed Al, they will bring him somewhere safe hopefully... (That's a lot of if's!)
