Spells should work " Stripetail nodded as the ghosts faded away into thin air and the temperature began to return to normal "What spells will work,of course depends on the demon.."
- Dixie stuck her head under the table where Scooby was cowering "Get out of there, Scooby! " she frowned "You're not exactly showing much in the way of leadership..
_ rhey rightened re!' Scooby protested as he climbed out from under the table " Rand rhese rare real rhosts, rot ruys rin rostumes" Dixie rolled her eyes. "If you are so scared, just go up to the room, and lie down.." she said with a note of impatience in her voice.

"Yea, I am." Mikey said a bit shy about asking Venus. "I just thought ... you know... we maybe could ... go somewhere, and have a bit of fun ... in a park or beach or something...." Mikey said.

"A demon? Jason and I know a demon, a pretty nice one. The U.N. Even awarded him with honorary human status." Odysseus said.

Nick22 · **Reply #4982 on:** December 28, 2009, 04:24:21 AM

Alright" Venus said, as the rest of the turtles sat there in stunned silence.. "How about we go .. um.. see a movie..? I don't care which one.. any one will be fine. Lets say.. tomorrow? how does that sound Mikey?"
_ this demon will not be nice, most demons I've met aren't" Stripetail said firmly..

Kor · **Reply #4983 on:** December 28, 2009, 04:30:43 AM

Mikey nods, "Sure, sounds ok." Mikey said, not sure if she'd had said yes or not. "We can see what is showing in a paper or something."

--

"Most demons aren't nice. Though a few are. Or are neutral." Odysseus said thinking over some of his experiences.

"Let's hope this demon is open to negotiations," Werner said.

"Even if we can negotiate; I am not going into negotiations without my shotgun," Frans replied.

"I was not advocating that. We'll probably have Nick, Stripetail, Setsuna and the Pelvanida Group backing us up." Werner said. He then turned to Nick. "You will be armed and providing backup, right?" he asked.

Nick22 · **Reply #4985 on:** December 29, 2009, 02:21:30 AM

We'd need to have something to negotiate with" Tai said thoughtfully.. 'but I don't have much experience with demons.. just bad Digimon..
_
We're not going to negotiate" Stripetail said flatly. " we're going to destroy the demon, as that is likely the final step in removing the curse..
_ i will have my gun, but I'm not sure how much effect bullets will have on a creature from the pit.." Nick replied.
_
Thats great" Venus said with a smile. "As long as the movie isn't too mushy.."

"If not guns, we can always bring in the heavier weapons," Paul said, "I believe Deimos has our RPG."

Werner nodded. "That sounds good, we'll probably group the spellcasters with the heavy weapons personnel. We'll need to wait until every gets back though," he said.

Nick22 · **Reply #4987 on:** December 29, 2009, 12:49:41 PM

Shaggy pulled into hotel parking lot and stopped in a parking space near the hotel' We're here guys everyone out.." He said turning the engine off and opening the door.
_ Tigress waited while Nick opened the door for her. "I'm glad to be back here. I do hope Tiger isn't worried.'
-
Probably" nick said as Tigress jumped out. "Hes not very trusting of others is he?'

Serris · **Reply #4988 on:** December 29, 2009, 12:56:35 PM

The Pelvanida Group, Hans, Dirk and Clive disembarked from the SUV and entered the hotel.

Ms. Swimmer entered the dining room with Hans, Dirk and Clive.

"So what's for dinner?" Hans asked.

"Dinner's almost over," Franz replied.

"We're now discussing what to do about the demon in the hotel," Setsuna added.

The rest of the Pelvanida Group entered the dining room as well.

'We'll have to get a paper and see what's showing." Mikey said.

"Destroying a demon is not always as easy as it may sound. Though some do have something they are weak to or a certain condition that once it is met destroys them or sends them back to where they are from." Odysseus said.

"At least we're here so you can go and talk to him." Jason said to Tigress.

Nick22 · **Reply #4990 on:** December 29, 2009, 01:08:15 PM

Stripetail turned as he saw Nick Tigress and Ms Swimmer enter the dinning room. " Ah the wounded warrior returns to us, please have a seat Ms Swimmer.." he said motioning to a free chair at his table..
_ There you are" tiger grumbled as Tigress ran up to him and gave him a friendly nuzzle, then licked Genki in greeting. "You're concerned .. that's good.. I just went to the hospital to get checked.. nothing wrong" Tigress said happily Tiger looked at her with a leery eye. "You've had the habit of disappearing lately, so forgive me if I'm a bit suspicious.. First with Agumina, then with the girls, now you vanish again.."
_
"i'm fine' Tigress replied calmly..

Ms. Swimmer winced as she sat down. "So what's next on the agenda?" she asked.

"After dinner cocktails anyone?" Mr. Bigmouth asked.

Two waiters came up to the Pelvanida group.

"How about dinner first?" Deimos asked. He then ordered a bucket of clams and a large fish fillet for himself.

"Sounds good," Dr. Zanasiu replied. He ordered crab cakes.

Rime and Strut ordered some blackened redfish. Dr. Kerzach and Zachary ordered pasta in an olive oil and basil sauce.

"So this demon, we can kill it with sufficient firepower, right?" Deimos asked.

"We were able to kill mages with ordinary firearms and even improvised weapons. Not sure if a demon will be any different." Strut replied.

"We may need to take my bow and a set of poison arrows in case. Speaking of which..." Mr. bigmouth then pulled out the teleport gem from its leaf pouch. "The Great Valley!" he said.

Mr. Bigmouth then vanished in a flash of light.

Nick22 · **Reply #4992 on:** December 30, 2009, 02:03:16 PM

demons are very powerful creatures, they are much more powerful then ordinary mages" Stripetail replied. " Ordinary bullets will do virtually nothing, they are creatures of the pit, and fire is their natural ally. the last time I faced a powerful demon it took me several hours of very intense magical combat to kill it, and I'm no slouch in the magical department.' Stripetail said.Poison may be be somewhat more effective, but it would have to be a strong poison...
-
Poison is one of my breaths" cynder said flying over to his side. "I've fought giant monsters before too..
_
You were alone last time master, this time, you will have allies' Tarrax said firmly. "That was the demon Azectal, he was a terrible demon" Tarrax's eyes narrowed. It took you nearly a week to fully recover from that exertation, master..
_
As for the agenda, we will be resuming the treasure hunt very shortly. The observatory should be restored so we're going to use the telescope to look for a moon bow.;' Stripetail said.

"That's why we have armor piercing and high explosive weapons," Deimos replied.

-------------------

Mr. Bigmouth arrived at the main lake. There, he noticed a Runner riding atop a Clubtail. The Clubtail was circling a tree and the Runner was shooting arrows at the tree and he landed almost every shot. Several other dinosaurs were mimicking the Runner and Clubtail.

He then went to the Great Valley Munitions Factory, formerly known as Mr. Bigmouth's Grove. There, several dinosaurs were making arrows and several bundles of arrows, some with leaves covering the stone heads, lay ready. Several other dinosaurs were preparing calabashes of what were assumed to be arrow poisons.

"Everyone," Mr. Bigmouth said, "I need a set of poison arrows."

Pterano handed Mr. Bigmouth a bundle of arrows with leaves covering the stone heads. "This is penthium poison. It is very potent," he said.

Mr. Bigmouth took the arrows and warped back to the Inglorious Hotel's dining room.

--------------------------

"Stripetail, I have obtained poisoned arrows. They are laced with one of the strongest poisons from the Great Valley: penthium. One penthium dart can knock a sickleclaw of Deimos's size unconscious in mere seconds. Multiple hits are almost always fatal. On a side note, it looks like the dinosaurs are practicing mounted archery," Mr. Bigmouth said.

He then left the dining room and placed the bundle of arrows by the weapons table. He made sure to place the poisoned arrows separate from the others. When he was done, he returned to the dining room and sat down.

"Maybe some should talk about some tactics and strategy concerning the demon in case we do battle it." Odysseus said.

"Hopefully not needed, but always a wise precaution." Jason said.

"Then there is the puzzle that needs to be solved and the curse lifted or broken." Sara said.

"Indeed, many things to do." Jason said nodding.

"Hopefully not all at once." Brooklyn said.

Nick22 · **Reply #4995 on:** December 30, 2009, 08:51:59 PM

there will be time for strategy" Stripetail said in reply, looking at them. "If most of you are done eating, we will be heading up to the observatory.
_ Tiger pushed his food over to Tigress. " eat it. I'll be fine" He said slowly.. then got up from his seat.
Tai Agumon and Agumina got up from thier seats.'We're ready to go Mr Stripetail' Tai said to him.

"I guess he may not be a nice person like this demon butler that I know of, or like Hellboy." Odysseus said.

"Or the demon who's a stand up comedian." Jason said. "Or this other one that owns a night club."

Nick22 · **Reply #4997 on:** January 01, 2010, 12:43:48 AM

most demons in my experience, are not nice" stripetail replied as he began heading up the stairs. " but there are always exceptions.

Serris · **Reply #4998 on:** January 01, 2010, 01:54:56 AM

The Pelvanida Group, Setsuna, the Lipizzaners and the NUMA group left the dining room.

They all gathered their weapons. Mr. Bigmouth chose to use his bow and poisoned arrows instead of his rifle.

"Stripetail, we're ready," Deimos said, checking the magazine on his rifle and adjusting his armor.

Mr. Bigmouth slung the bow and quiver of poisoned arrows over his shoulder.

Nick22 · **Reply #4999 on:** January 01, 2010, 02:35:58 PM

Scooby, Dixie, Spyro, Cynder and Hunter followed them, with Tiger tigress agumon and Agumina close behind. "So once we find this moon bow, we'll be one step closer to breaking the curse.." tai said. "I've never seen a moonbow before :Lilo said as she climbed the stairs.
