Betty Crocker Headquarters: Headquarters Entrance

[Suddenly, coming out of the building on the ground are several legislacerators with one in particular at the lead. Doesn't look like they want anybody leaving...or entering.]

EUPHORIA: -stands at the front, focused. He will give orders as needed-

JAMES: -!!!!!!!!!! So this is where he stands. Equips himself with the photon shield once again. He's battle ready.-

TEREZI: =oh fuck....it's her old teacher!=

KARKAT: !!! ... =FINS FLARE AND HE HISSES=

JAMES: -He's perhaps passing knowledge of this troll. Depending on their infamy.-

JAMES: ... -Either way, he's waiting for them to make the first move.-

DISCIPLE: -She pulls her lion hood over her face, pulling out a crossbow.-

DISCIPLE: You are here for justice, she thinks.

DISCIPLE: Is this true?

[[ A legislacerator in the ranks pipes up: "We are the Empress's Justice. All those who defy her will fall." ]]

DISCIPLE: We are the people's justice.

DISCIPLE: We cannot be killed.

DISCIPLE: No one says the same for empires, she thinks, yes?

DISCIPLE: Look upon ye mighty.

DISCIPLE: -She LAUNCHES A BOLT.-

DISCIPLE: And despair.

[[ One in the crowd of troll lawyers finds a bolt to the heart and drops a bit patheically. Plop.]]

HESONY: ...

DISCIPLE: -She loads another, teeth bared.-

EUPHORIA: -speaking of despair, everyone in the immediate vicinity will feel it. It's strong. Crippling despair-

MICEXA: --!

MICEXA: -She knows she doesn't need to say it, but she looks at Sunny immediately-

JAMES: -He... is not invulnerable to this... The shield faulters.-

KARKAT: =FUCK YOU ESPECIALLY EUPHORIA=

HESONY: =he quickly activates his own power of nullification, but unfortunately all other powers in the immediate area will also be nullified.=

DISCIPLE: -Her eye slits go narrow for a second, but just a second. She stares at the group and that horrified expression turns to a snarl.-

HESONY: =He's fighting against his own.. This is highly unprecedented.=

JAMES: -He never had powers to begin with. It's enough for James to take action and lob a whole THREE DECKER CAKE at Euphoria with considerable force. Eat that, Justice.-

DAVE: -god DAMN IT HE NEEDS TO GET UP THAT WALL but the feeling--it's so heavy. He's gonna try to push for it anyway-

[[ At the unlawful attack of their commander, the legislacerators surge forth, drawing their own weapons and preparing to swarm the crew. ]]

EUPHORIA: -equips his weapon, a half scythe half sword dealio that seems bigger than your average scimitar. He uses it defensively, weakening the blow. The feeling of despair is even stronger.-

JAMES: -there's a mess of cakes flying around. 🍰-

KARKAT: =Luckily his fucking fists won't be. He's leaping into the fray to fish punch the nearest lawyer... actually no. He's going to straight up grab this bitch and hoist em=

KARKAT: =HISS=

HESONY: =He pushes harder, keeping focused as he raised his shield for the incoming attack. He never had to go against the mental abilities of another legislacerator before, so the entire process is taxing on the mind.=

TEREZI: =Pop pop pop! She's firing into the oncoming crowd. With how many there are, she doesn't really need to worry about aim all that much.=

DISCIPLE: -Another bolt, before she bashes the whole crossbow into pieces over one of the Legislacerator's heads. And then the claws are out.-

DISCIPLE: -Well, she's not gonna bother with all that fiddling and reloading if they're just going to RUSH at her.-

[[ The crossbow bash takes one down for the count. My, thisll be embarrassing when they wake up in the morning. ]]

EUPHORIA: -despair only seems to fuel them. Rapid mood change. Intimidated. Nothing you do will actually defeat this ENTIRE group. That's what it feels like anyway.- S urrender a nd t his w ill g o b y m uch q uicker.()

KARKAT: =If he got the chance to hoist this mofo then he's using him as a weapon. He is beating other motherfuckers with motherfuckers and that means you Euphoria= SHUT YOUR FUCKING FACESHITTER! =But as that mood changes he does hesitate a bit... is a familiar feeling but not a pleasant one=

DAVE: -focuses a strategy and attempts to take a risk here, flash stepping through the crowd and to the side where he can start pulling himself up. This is gonna be a tough one. He doesn't feel like he can do it but he has to try-

KARKAT: =Dave you idiot... GODDAMMIT=

HESONY: It won't end the same this time, Euphoria! =He's stepping closer, trying to enhance his negation. He knows he needs to be closer and he began to barrel through some with his shield. Resorting to slicing through them when they begin to swarm him, he kept his gaze locked with his former judicator.=

[[Terezi's bullet's hit, but none are fatal. She succeeded in grazing an arm while another went cleanly through a shoulder. But legislacerators are tenacious. They continued on, attacking the group with terrifying strength.]]

DAVE: -sword in between teeth for easy access-

[[Karkat bowls a few people over with his actual-troll bowling ball. ]]

KARKAT: =GOOD=

KARKAT= He's just gonna go whole, ass ape and try to cut through these lawyers=

EUPHORIA: T he l ess d eath, t he b etter, w ouldn't y ou s ay? M y o wn w ords. -wow everyone is starting to feel REALLY HAPPY so happy it's paralyzing who even FEELS this happy ever-

KARKAT: =Why this though?? He pauses his asshole swinging at the wrong moment and gets shanked tf up, gdi his arm=

JAMES: -Lobbing a barasol infused bomb. 💥 NOTHING IS HAPPY ABOUT THIS SITUATION SIR. GET OUT OF HIS HEAD. -

DAVE: -this is hard. The way he's feeling makes him wants to roll on the ground laughing for some reason but it takes everything he can to keep pulling himself up. Speedily. He has to ignore the pain for now--he's already halfway there-

EUPHORIA: -slinks behind the legislacerators for more of a defensive position. He can't stop looking at hesony and micexa, but that doesn't mean he's not focused-

JAMES: -have more cake.-

DISCIPLE: -If they're going defensive, she's going to push in harder. Injuries be damned; she's covered in all kinds of blood.-

TEREZI: =she's keeping her distance, if only because she's doing long range...wow...what is wrong with the world actually?= F1GHT 1T!! YOU KNOW YOU C4N! =pew pew!=

KARKAT: =Dave if he could he'd punch you in the ass but he DOES fight it and starts to punch throats. Fighting in the fray. Fists and claws a flyin=

[[ James's Barbasol bomb is spied by several legislacerators who panic to get out of the way. The casualties are seven space lawyers who are in various states of incapacitation. The others escape singed but alive.=

DAVE: -he almost loses his grip for a second but gets his shit together enough to keep going up. 3/4ths of the way. Speed climbing-

JAMES: -doing massive evasive maneuvers that involve even more cakes being thrown around. ALL THE BAD GENTS AND LADIES ARE GETTING CAKE'D.-

EUPHORIA: -he's slightly singed after blocking his face from the explosion but he's been through worse. Increases the feeling of happiness even more. Can it even be considered happiness when it's so intense it's painful?-

DISCIPLE: -That is a fascinating question, and perhaps one to ponder as she attempts to fling a dead body at Euphoria.-

[[ James's efforts ejects the sylladexes of four of the legislacerators, and among the items include Aranea's tablet, Terezi's swords before she acquired her cane, aranea's sword, and a plethora of Dave's photos. ]]

KARKAT: =smacked in the face with lovely photography. FLAILS HIS FISTS=

TEREZI: =she's firing the gun as she goes for her old swords. Hello sweeties.=

EUPHORIA: -disciple is talented, and this dead body gets him right in the stomach, knocking the wind out of him, but he is still standing.- F orward! -he shouts-

DAVE: -4/4 of the way up this roof finally. He is here no longer-

KARKAT: =BYE FOREVER DVE=

KARKAT: =Uppercuts a lawyer=

[[ The legislacerators continue their advance forward, trying to force the group to the water. ]]

DISCIPLE: -YOWLS-

DISCIPLE: -PUSHES BACK!!!-

[[ Legislacerator: punched! His balance is thrown off and he staggered but didn't fall. Karkat's fist may also be smarting just a tad. ]]

[[ Terezi's attempts at reaching her weapon are unsuccessful. For now. It is evident they are aware what her signature weapons are and do not want her using them. ]]

[[ A legislacerator Disciple shoved comically backpedals trying to keep from falling over until he eventually falls onto his butt. ]]

JAMES: -Is terezi trying to get at her weapon? Allow James to have enough of this and STRONG PUNCH his way through the wall of Legis.🤜💥-

EUPHORIA: -that is embarrassing-

DISCIPLE: it's like slapstick except for the part where she goes to town with those claws-

KARKAT: =His fists are on fire but he tries to throw THEM in the water now. Get on his newly acquired turk scrubs=

[[ James is definitely more successful than Terezi was. ]]

[[ Legislacerator: BIG GLOWING DEAD SIGN OVERHEAD ]]

EUPHORIA: -weapon out ready to take anybody out if need be. Except a certain three he may be trying to avoid- P ush t hem b ack!

[[ Karkat's efforts are also fruitful. For the first two. While on the third, the legislacerator grabs his shirtfront and pulls him into the water with her. ]]

KARKAT: =I'M A FISH BITCH BUT OKAY, SPLOOSH=

KARKAT: =hey guys... wanna see what the bottom of the harbor looks like? DRAGS THEM ALL=

HESONY: =He's still trying to barrel through to get to Euphoria. He's making progress, but the lacerations are piling up...=

JAMES: -rolling to retrieve the swords. He hass the swrods.-

DISCIPLE: -She pretty much attempts a FLYING CATLEAP at euphoria. The one giving orders. OBVIOUSLY the one she wants most dead.-

[[ There is another push as the legislacerators surge forward, slashing at them with bladed weapons and firing into the crowd with pistols. ]]

EUPHORIA: -attempts to block disciple with his weapon. This could hurt if successful-

DISCIPLE: -There is some DEFINITE olive blood, but it is good enough to know that she made it that distance.-

DISCIPLE: Rrrrrr.

KARKAT: =Now that he's drowned people he emerges to YANK ANKLES=

TEREZI: =Raises her hand toward James= H3R3!

[[ Disciples attack only grazed Euphoria, just as Euphoria's defense only caused minor injury to Disciple. ]]

[[ Karkat's grip slips a couple times due to the slipperiness of water, but he is INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL the next few attempts. ]]

KARKAT: =SNATCHES EM UP into the water=

DISCIPLE: -She tumbles and rolls, but she's already going in, attempting to swipe with her claws in rapid succession.-

MICEXA: -EXPECT HER TO HELP YOU OUT, HESONY. She is your blade...-

[[ if that's the case, Micexa should expect lacerations too ]]

EUPHORIA: -this cat is undeterred by EVERYTHING. He also lifts his weapon up AGAIN to block. She grazed him before and it's clear what she can do if he doesn't successfully block her-

[[ Euphoria's arakh is long and successfully blocks most of Disciple's onslaught. ]]

KARKAT: =Did he drown enough to clear some o the ASSHOLES. If so he's going to help Disci with a SHOULDER CHARGE at Euph=

DISCIPLE: -this is pretty true. She is BRISTLING and GROWLING, the part of her brain that uses reason and logic and words completely shut down.-

[[ Among the fallen legislacerators, some familiar items are found: terezi's dragon scale jacket, karkat's dual sickles, a pretty banged up toolbox, and what appears to be an entire library's worth of books (spoilers, they're aranea's). ]]

KARKAT: =After he tries this thing he'll be back=

[[ Man these rolls are making Euphoria pretty much untouchable. ]]

EUPHORIA: -bOOM-

EUPHORIA: -time for intense panic-

KARKAT: =FOOL, THAT ONLY MAKES HIM SWING HARDER=

DISCIPLE: -Well, if he doesn't take a swing at HER, then she's going to keep pressing. Maybe she'll die of exhaustion but... you probably don't want to roll those bones my friend-

JAMES: -manages to fling the swords to Terezi as best as he can.-

EUPHORIA: -still attempting to block disciple and karkat-

[[ Well the die says 7. At least it's not a 4. Euphoria is NICKED and maybe loses a fingertip. ]]

KARKAT: =his finger now bitch=

DISCIPLE: -She pants, taking a step back and pulling something out of her cloak.- DISCIPLE: -It's... a bottle of glittery gasoline.-

DISCIPLE: Rrrr.

DISCIPLE: -Sparks a flame wit a lighter and LIGHTS IT.-

KARKAT: =OK BYE=

EUPHORIA: -ohh shit. He barely has time to process being nicked-

TEREZI: =She fumbled only for a moment with her swords, but she soon as them in her hands. She was preparting to attack but barely had time to defend, the blade of another sword halted millimeters from her face.=

[[ The discipletov cocktail ignites in glorious, glittery flame. ]]()

[[ If Euphoria is quick, he will escape with only second degree burns. ]]

DISCIPLE: -DODGE THIS IMPORTANT MAN-

DISCIPLE: -she FLINGS IT-

EUPHORIA: -he attempts to dodge x 2!!!!-

[[ He's successful, but much of his right arm and part of his torso is kissed by fire. ]]

KARKAT: ARGH!! FUCKING DIE! =goes for the tackle=()

DISCIPLE: -THAT IS A SATISFYING KABOOM NONETHELESS-

EUPHORIA: -he is BURNED and winces at the pain but still has a tight hold of his weapon-

DISCIPLE: -She's not rushing in this time. Karkat is going head on, but her? She's prowling, now. Cat and mouse. Low to the ground. A claw to slash his achilles tendon.-

[[ No matter how much they try, Euphoria is decidedly difficult to take down. His ankle is slashed at but the angle is awkward and only managed to tear a wound into his leg. ]]

DISCIPLE: -She hasn't STOPPED, THEN. She's swinging another fist directly into his knee. ALL CLAWS THROUGH IT.-

EUPHORIA: -he keeps trying to fight back. He can't give up and he won't and he swings his weapon at her-

[[ While the rest of the group, including Terezi, is busy cutting down legislacerators near the water's edge, Hesony finally breaks through the rest of the crowd, just in time to see Disciples claws happen right through Euphoria's knee. ]]

DISCIPLE: -once it tears right through, she just leverages her weight forward to force him down, ripping her claws out and attempting to bring them down again through his back this time.-

EUPHORIA: -he at the very least falls to his knees, grunting in pain and everything is happening so FAST and so quickly and he really wishes it didn't go down like this-

TEREZI: =There is a cry from across the way. She too far to do anything.= HESONY: =But he isn't. Finally through, a shout rips from him= No! =And he's lunging to place himself in between Euphoria and Disciple.=

DISCIPLE: -TUMBLES as her claws fail to hit their mark, skidding on all fours as she snarls at Hesony.-

[[ The claws do tear through his metal arm, striking Euphoria in the process. However, it was not as deadly as it could have been. ]]

EUPHORIA: -his knee is entirely fucked up and trying to gain his bearings is being near impossible. He's sure he's dead until he sees someone standing in front of him. Oh kid...-

HESONY: ... =he just...doesnt know what to do now. His eyes are wide, surprised at his own actions=

KARKAT: =BEATS HI- wait... WHAT?=

JAMES: -this is his chance. He flies in to lock Euphoria in high quality proton energy cuffs. Just spy gear he's had since his days with Skaianet.- THERE WILL BE NO MORE BLOODSHED.

DISCIPLE: -SNARLS at James, too.-

JAMES: -He knows what he's about, cat.-

KARKAT: =James no... Karkat usually likes you=

EUPHORIA: -breathes heavily at the pain from the claw injuries and the blue blood that escapes from his skin. He keeps looking up at hesony. Just the entire time-

DISCIPLE: -She looks at the others. The calm, the anger, the acceptance, the sorrow. It's enough that her snarl fades, a small, butter expression left as she retracts her claws and pulls away her hood.-

HESONY: =please dont look at him. Everyone already doesn't trust them for squat and now he just defended the enemy(?) FUck....=

KARKAT: =Definitely not happy about it = YOU NEED TO PICK A SIDE. =He's still steamed about it=

MICEXA: -She just releases a pent-up breath. Frankly, she wasn't sure where to stand... but knowing this is working out this way tells her it was what she hoped for.-

MICEXA: -And also HESONY WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING BECAUSE I JUST READ THAT WHOLE THING NOW-

JAMES: -The troll is subdued... It's the most he can hope for.-

TEREZI: =she's jogging up, out of breath from fighting.= K4RK4T H3S...

TEREZI: H3 W4S OUR JUD1C4TOR

TEREZI: =that's no excuse but. She looks torn.=

MICEXA: -HESONY YOU IDIOT-

MICEXA: -YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TRY TO DIE!!!-

HESONY: =I KNOW=

KARKAT: GREAT SO HOW DID HE HELP US EXACTLY BY TRYING TO KILL US?

KARKAT: FUCK THIS ASSHOLE!

MICEXA: -rushes over to Hesony and just. Rests a hand on his arm and squeezes. They need to get the hell out of this situation.-

[[ Once seeing Euphoria fall, the legislacerators that remained were beaten back with the UU's own tenacity and were forced to retreat further into the headquarters, escaping elsewhere to regroup with The Expunger. ]]

KARKAT: OH, AND ALL THAT OTHER SHIT HE SUCCEEDED IN DOING????

DISCIPLE: You are right.

DISCIPLE: I do not care what he was.

DISCIPLE: -She throws the bloody claws down. And then drops several of the bloody furs.-

DISCIPLE: But it doesn't matter now. -Her voice rumbles, hoarse.-

DISCIPLE: -She shoots a glare at Hesony and Micexa and Euphoria, too. Deep breath through her nose. And then, she lets it go.-

DISCIPLE: -And then she turns, abruptly, her voice rising to a snarl again.-

DISCIPLE: Remember.

DISCIPLE: When this war is won.

DISCIPLE: When your side has fallen.

DISCIPLE: Remember where you stood for the rest of your life.

DISCIPLE: -And with that, she stalks off.-

EUPHORIA: Y ou w ere a lways m uch m ore c ompassionate t han y ou g ave y ourself c reddit f or. -he says under his breath- I f y ou c an't k ill m e...l eave m e h ere.

HESONY: =he's not going to run. That would only solidify his guilt. He doesn't move.= TEREZI: 1 KNOW! 1 KNOW... =shes glancing between Karkat and her former team= 1 KNOW

KARKAT: =he'll argue for you Disciple, he's just. Still flared in the fins, because you guys are fucking nuts and TWO of you he still hates=

JAMES: -says nothing. Only gazing sternly.-

EUPHORIA: Y ou d id e very t hing r ight. N ot t he w ay s he w anted i t.

HESONY: But we did. All of us. Stooping to whatever command she gave us and daring to call it justice when it was anything but.

HESONY: =He won't say a word to defend himself. Everything the crew said so far was true.=

KARKAT: =He just. Lifts his hands, fists. STEAMING off a frustrated noise Terezi... how much would you hate him if he just. Ate them right the fuck now??=

MICEXA: ... -She doesn't know what to say. In times like these, it's not so clear. There are too many shades of grey, and how could she possibly make such a call? What choices have they been given, when it all comes down to moments like this one?-

MICEXA: -The fact is, war isn't made on anything that matters. It's a child's game fought with the tools of adults, the most basic of tenants as right versus wrong. In the end, no one truly wins.-

MICEXA: \|/e were told to fight or die.

MICEXA: No one ever told us there could be more.

MICEXA: Hesony...

MICEXA: This isn't in our hands anymore.

TEREZI: =ONE, she'd be too stunned to register hate, and TWO, cannibalism=

MICEXA: The only place I stand... is with my swarm. MICEXA: -looks over at Terezi-

MICEXA: I'm not going to fight what you think is best.

[APPROXIMATELY, there are fifty shades of grey Micexa]

[Just for reference.]

MICEXA: -sudden urge to punch a book somewhere-

EUPHORIA: -he's...taking pride in what micexa is saying. How these three turned out this way he'll never know-

TEREZI: 1....

TEREZI: =They're leaving it up to her? Again?? The last time she decided anything for them, she was an auspistice no longer and their team had been whittled down both in number and will.=

TEREZI: 1 DONT W4NT 4NY MOR3 P3OPL3 1 C4R3 4BOUT TO D13

[[ Among the possessions left behind, and with a little digging, they uncover Dave's pistol and communicator, Mindfang's sword, about 1/3 of Nyalah's weed, Aranea's tablet, and Latula's billy club, skateboard collection, and hoverboard.
