SSH:FLBN : the start of it all.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

In the distance I hear a cry for help. It prompts me to move faster. Spike erupt from my arms and back and I plow thriugh rat's like a juggernaut. I flail my arms as I run knocking rats out of the way. All rationality has left my mind. My only goal is to reach Arc.

I hear the cry for help and maneuver my way closer. "Just need a distraction." I whisper to myself.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

As I plow through the Rat's base I break some of the machines. They quickly begin spewing fire and smoke. The explosions echo through the cavern.

[Philote]

The Rats around the cage rush forward to deal with the rampaging Meta and I use my shadow to open bars on the side of the wheel to release Arc.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

The rats surround me keeping me form moving further. They swarm all around me grabbing my arms and legs.

[Philote]

I pull the nearly unconscious Arc into an equipment shed. "Come on, Wake up speedster. We need to get out and possibly help the other guy, but I can't do that with you half awake."

[Marvelous Miscreant]

The rats pull me down and something hits me in the back of the head...hard. My skin changes back to normal from the impact and I fall unconscious.

"The Diamond guy was outside fighting the last I saw him, but that was a couple minutes ago. We need to move, now! Can you run?"

[Marvelous Miscreant]

The rats drag me to an adjacent cavern

"Ok, here is the plan. Run out of the cavern and take every right tunnel, we will regroup later and go after the diamond man. If you can't find me then look for the Jester fellow."

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I awake faceing an elderly rat.

"Where is Arc?" I ask.

I take off after Arc, making a break for the exit, when we are almost immediately ambushed by a Rat with stolen power armor. Beams of energy pierce through my body and the last thing I see is Arc looking back at me as he runs out of the tunnel and I fall down lifeless.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

The Rat king spoke,"Who is this Arc you speak of?"

"Ah yes, the speedy one. He was essential to our plans. We, the Rattenkönig, have much planned for the humans who lord above us."
