[OOM] Izabora- Total Immersion Virtual Reality Program: Age of Ooze. The Forest of Shiny.

They've been walking through the forest for a couple of hours now, and it's almost dark.

"We might want t'stop and rest for the night, soon," Atton remarks, adjusting his hat.

Will swings his torch towards the tree thing, it backs up slightly and now tries to hit him along with Guppy.

[guppy_sandhu]

The knots clearly isn't a weak part, so Guppy tries jumping up to snap bits off.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton just watches, for the moment.

(After all, it's just a tree. He's sure they can handle it.)

[will_scarlett]

Since the fire seems to be scaring the tree, Will tosses his torch high into its head of branches where a few are set on fire acting as a good distraction,

"'rhaps should start runnin'."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Won't that set the whole forest on fire?" Guppy calls to Will. "Otherwise we could have had Atton burninate it."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"We don't want t'start a forest fire."

[will_scarlett]

"Was the only thing that seemed to work."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy thinks for a moment, then tries to contain the monster in a force field so that the fire stays on that one tree.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Huh. Good idea."

[will_scarlett]

"Oh aye. 'rhaps could chase it way with yer torches without lightin' it on fire anymore."

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy tries to concentrate - he needs to leave a tiny gap in the force field to allow oxygen through.

"Can anyone access an interface with its hit points?" he asks. "I'm running out of Mana."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Thoughtfully: "Might be quicker for me t'just burninate it, now that the forest is forcefield-protected."

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, probably the quickest thing."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Can you get it inside the forcefield?"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Open it up a little for me and I can."

[will_scarlett]

Will backs up slightly since at the moment he can't really help.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy tries to do so, beginning to digitally sweat with the exertion.

"You've got about five seconds."

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"Sure, sure," Atton says, charging up a fireball and tossing it at the tree.

[will_scarlett]

There's a whoomch sound as the tree thing catches fire, apparently its wood was rather dry and Will ducks.

[guppy_sandhu]

Guppy's force field falters, and he drops to his knees for a moment, tired, but also dodging the blast.

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

Atton pats Guppy.

"Is a dramaticfish. Rest for a moment, we'll continue on soon."

Atton eyes the burning tree, then, when he thinks it should probably be dead, selects Tidal Wave and sends a stream of water at it.

[will_scarlett]

Will searches in his bag and hands Guppy some water and bread,

"Eat these an just rest."

[guppy_sandhu]

"Thanks." Guppy has a big drink of the water.

"Is it dead?"

He'll use recharge when his mana builds up a bit.

"That was so cool!"

[stuck-mynock.livejournal.com]

"I think it's dead, yeah."

[will_scarlett]

"Oh aye though shame to see a tree tryin' to 'ttack us."
