It felt like the advertisement was aimed directly at them.

BLUE HELL GUIDE NEEDED

There was no way this wasn't a sign just for them. The pay was....astronomical that was for sure. A person could retire on the profits.

Many who saw the ad assumed it was a trap, or were too traumatized by the thought of blue hell to go. Two people did take the job though. They both arrived at the same time in a lonely corner in the citadel, in front of a meeting hall. The thoughts of a trap raced through their minds as they opened the door.

"Howdy folks! :V" Canine-7 chirped without a worry.
O-cat perched on his shoulder, inspecting the duo for faults.
"Don't worry, this isn't a trap. I'm actually just helping out a client of mine. :V"

D'arc looks at his fellow job-taker, and then looks back at the notail, thinking. "Mm."

"Not to insult, but notails tend to not have much money. Is the payment true?"
"Normal notails don't tend to have much money. My client on the other hand is not normal. :V"
Seven glances up and down the tall AI beside him. Well, taller than him, anyways. He shoves his hands in his pockets and ignores them, for now.
"Yeah, and is per? If it's a lump sum you're just gonna make me split down the middle, after taxes..."
"Merrrrr.*"
*Translation: Should we kill them?
"It is per of course!"
"I must say, it is rather rude to assume my client would attempt to fleece the wool over your eyes."
"Notails are honest-"

Canine-7 is cut off by the sound of the door closing as another person enters.

"Notails are honest folks."
"We say our crimes so openly and casually that no others can get a bite upon our hide. That is what I always say."
"Sorry for my delay. I just needed to confirm you two were the correct sort of people I was seeking. See....."
The shellage on her face changes color. "I'm a bit of a devil's advocate. :D"
"Hey listen, man. Don't gotta justify yourself to us, it's cool."
"Kind of assumed these aren't question-askin' rates. But, y'know, count me curious for what the "correct" sort means here."

As suddenly as the shellage's color had changed, it returns to white. "Thank you for understanding. I know this is a very 'ask no questions' job. But I shall keep it simple."
"Everyone keeps saying "I wish to destroy the Notail Union."...."
"But no one seems to be trying."
"I have told others, over and over, "I believe it should be destroyed." yet they laugh, take my comments in jest."
"Compliance is how half the universe has been taken over by the machine. As far as I suspect, this universe is doomed. Killed by compliance and rot."
"I would like to spend the rest of my life without political worries, and meetings. Is that greedy of me? :D"
"You're seemin' generous enough so far. You 'n I, we've got this, uh, shared sentiment, I guess."

"If the union is gone, Helen will be safe."
"If even for a little bit. :V"
"You know Helen, don't you, Seven? :V"
Seven scrunches his brow at the comment. "Oh... c'mon, dude. Don't have to say it like that."
"And I thought you looked kinda funny today. Aren't you s'possed to be watching her, or something?"
"Oh no! The other me is supposed to be watching her."
"He's not doing a good job, don't you agree? :V"
"I don't give a shit which one of you two freaks is on Helen duty." He swings a hand out of his pocket to gesture aggressively, snack wrappers tumbling out onto the floor. "If you know he's doing a shit job, go find a better fucking vacation spot than this awful city!"

"Muuur.*"
*Translation: Hound, is it really the time to be digging up wounds?
"Clearly, she prefers your guys' company over mine. So make sure it's worthwhile."
Canine-7 bows. "Do not fret."
"Once I am done with my own plans we can both have Helen without an annoying purse dog annoying us. :V"
"Mmmm..." Seven hesitates, glancing back around to the rest of the room, and his client.
"...Helen gets mad at me if I argue with you. I'll refrain commenting on how fuckin' spooky you're acting." Seven relents, kicking around the snack wrappers a bit in defeat.
"Cat, or dog? Which animal do you two prefer? We can only choose one with us. :D"

D'arc climbs on the top of the frog, and offers a hand to O-2. "I feel you two can discuss your relationship better down there. Let's get going to our "time of adversity", shall we?"
O-2 takes D'arc's hand. "Please save the flirting for after we get out of hell, canine. :D"
"Yeah, yeah, sure. Hop on, 'brother', I'm sure this won't be weird." Seven throws the rest of the garbage in his pocket on the floor before struggling his way up onto the Blort.
"...Mmm... Could I inquire a thing, before we go?"
"Of course! :D"
"Not that I doubt your methods of expertise, dear client, but you bought the methods to go down there, yes?"
"A bucket, or a invitation, mm?"
"I'd offer the way I usually get in, but..." He glances at the giant frog.
"...You're better off with the bucket method..."
"The tailed who lived on our planet before us had quite a special method to enter into the "Prison dimension" where they stored great and terrible criminals."
"It is funny that they were not unlike us. Haha. :D"
"Behold! The tailed god machine! TvT"

Canine-7 pushes forward two very large doors. The doors are pressed against each other.

"You can say you are amazed. :D"
"But the tailed did not use buckets. The used an even greater device."

Canine takes out what looks like a perfectly normal cup. He opens the door, throws in the cup, and shuts it before it can finish falling.

"Like said, I'm not here to question why. Better'n wasting any more time. You need a hand up, Classless?" Seven positions himself onto the large blort.
Canine-7 grabs Seven's hand. "Thank you so much, most delightful Seven. Let this trip be fruitful, and our relationship great! :V"
"I apologize that he talks like that. :D"
"!!!!"
"Let us begin. :D"
Seven doesn't recoil this time, hoisting the hound up onto the blort.
"It's whatever. I already know this guy, I guess."
"Or, at least, he seems to know me…"
"More than you know! :V"

Red towers raise into the sky. If one twists their head just enough, it could be confused for a city which they were falling through.

Unfortunately, this was not the friendly part of town.

Scaling down one of the towers at high speeds is a [MISSING SPECIES]. Its [MISSING SOUND] are deafening. It prepares to make a leap at the crew.

Seven shouts back at the frog-riders, "Yo, Tin-man, look alive!"
He attempts to veer his blort out of the way to evade.
D'arc flies so that when the glitch jumps, it may be so that the Dog is on the way. The extral and the notail can fight well enough and be the first line of defense.

The LOST DAMSELS begin to circle the the flying creatures, like sharks in water. They are not hostile, physically. But they begin to fill the thoughts of those that they circle with the crime that got them in here. The crime of attempting to exist in spot that was preoccupied. The thoughts are so loud. Deafening.

No one can focus fully with them around.

"Fuck, man! These fucking animals-" Seven clutches onto the back of the blort, checking back to see if the first missing beast was still there.

Canine-7 tries to hold it together. He can't believe how horrible it is, to not exist because no one wants you to be there.... "P-Please take the next shot for me. I...cannot focus!"
D'arc releases a slight tsch. He's not able to feel contempt nor disgust as much he could in the past, but he can still feel a migraine. Taking a Galehaut Egg from his robes, he says. "This is what you all want? First come, first get" as he glances at the lost damsels

The damsels begin to circle just the frog and the egg held up. They nip at each other, trying to see which one of them would be granted life, until one of them darts into the egg, redeeming it.

A new galehaut has hatched from the egg!

The galehaut immediately, realizing that it is falling, bites down on the frog. The flying frog begins to descend faster than intended, unable to counteract the sudden weight with its anomalous powers. The LOST DAMSELS stop harassing the group, instead they bite and nip at the newly hatched galehaut for stealing their chance to exist.

Seven pivots around, commanding the Sapper. "Fuck off, thing! Gooby, get its ass!"
He hopes the messes he's been making have counted for something…

Gooby takes the lead, its mind free from the cries of the LOST DAMSELS! It remembers fondly on all the messes Seven has made today, and uses [Mess up Time], clashing with the [MISSING SPECIES]!

The blort, instead of dropping the [MISSING SPECIES], slams it against the red towers, dragging it along until it stop screeching and goes silent. The blort then shakes it happily. It loves its new chew toy.

Fortuna rolls a 20 sided die. A 7 is rolled.

The blort is too busy with its new toy to help out the others.

"Excuse me for a moment. Let us hope I do not miss. :V" Canine-7 throws his knife at the galehaut.

The galehaut is stabbed in the neck, a clear shot. Its jaw releases and it falls, dead, into the HELL of BLUE. The LOST DAMSELS chirp happily and swim away from the group.

"................"
Canine-7 hugs Seven. "What a good team we all are! It should be a clear path after this! :V"
D'arc gives a thumbs up to Canine-7 and then slowly flies down. He didn't have the guts to kill the Galehaut, and, worse of all, he feels he knows why.
"...Get. Your hands...." He pinches the bridge of where a nose should be.
"Mmmm. Is that all? Are we done with the fucked up animals, can we land?"
"Turbulence, that's all. Let's keep going, I doubt any will try any funny business after this."

"Glad I could help you come to terms with this. Just do it, like, arms-distance away, alright?"
"I'm covered in dog hair as is..."
[ Highway, Fog, Visitation ]

The two animals land. Before them is the galehaut, stabbed, dead, and crushed by the impact. Her life, disallowed, and then taken from her.

Canine-7 collects his knife, pleased with his kill.
"Hound. Do me a favour, extract the pheromone organ for me."
"Least we can do is a life not going to waste. Free body parts, as you notails tend to cherish, mm?"
"As you wish, but the smell of it makes me pretty hungry! Maybe we should all go out to dinner after this. :V" Canine-7 states as he cuts into the body.
O-2 ignores the casual chatter. She uses her harpoon as a walking stick until she sees the first delethis. It peers up at her, until she pings. It begins to play a tune. The message goes from one delethis to the next. The pings of the creature in O-2's head compatible with that of the hopping insects.

"Sup, P-1337 and Chaos v1. Want one? :D" O-2 offers the BLUE DEVIL a blunt.
D'arc waves in the background to the BLUE DEVIL, and goes back to looking at a Galehaut being gutted.
Seven shuffles up just behind Canine-7, visibly on-edge. ("Yo. Is that... O-11?")
Canine-7 casually pulls out the guts of the galehaut. ("Yes and no! O-11's body, but the mind of P-1337, and Chaos v1. Prisoners trapped in here.")
("We didn't have a prison planet back then! :V")
"You come to my domain. Drop a fish from the sky. Disturb all of the children, all to ask if I want a blunt?"
"I guess you don't want the blunt then...... :D"
"Give me a reason why I shouldn't kill you where you stand, O-class."
("Not to alarm or anything, but I think I got this guy... killed...") He pulls his hood up, trying to... stay out of view.
"To toss a rock into the sea and declare all rocks banished, is foolishness of the highest degree."

O-2 wishes people spent the two seconds needed to understand her. She was really dumbing down these metaphors.
"Killing me would do nothing. A single rock thrown into the ocean does not raise the sea, nor does it remove all rocks from the land."
"I have come to ask you for your assistance. I wish to be an advocate of the DEVIL. Let me release you once and for all, so the Notail Union may fall."
"And then, I shall retire to a beach, or perhaps a shady lake in the woods. :D"
"You are joking."
"Everyone says "Let's destroy the Union" yet I say to them "I agree whole heartedly" and suddenly it is a joke.... :D"
Canine-7 tosses the pheromone gland to D'arc. ("Oh dear. Well if you would like to wear my face, maybe that would help. :V")
("I think that would be a lot fucking stranger. But thanks for the offer.")
("Alright, but don't forget I offered! :V")
"Give me one reason in the universe why I should believe you."
O-2 takes a long drag of her blunt. "Do I look like I engage in politics for fun? TvT"
"No, but when has that stopped you before?"
"The universe is doomed. I can feel it."
"I would like to spend my last few days in retirement, you understand. If I quit, I will be killed. Sorry. I will mysteriously disappear after heading to an unknown vacation ranch upstate. :D"

D'arc takes the glands and bows down to Canine-7, before walking to stay at the side of O-2. "...You know, I vouch for him."
"Forgive and be forgiven. Trust, and be trusted." D'arc says, as he holds the bible in a hand, and the gland in other. "Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel. Proverbs 27:9"

"Mmm..." D'arc feels a sense of nausea.
"Good enough, I suppose. The Christian thing was disbanded, though. You know how life is, you can't have everything to be perfect... What about you?"
"That doesn't sound good at all." The BLUE DEVIL huffs, sensing something wrong. "You're infected, aren't you?"
"Mhmm. Things got ugly. Took a blow for someone else."
"There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends."
"Don't worry, though. I'll figure myself out. Just a downer that I can't be good while still being me: My love and my forgiveness is just a symptom."
"But." He puts his hand on O-2 shoulder. "Focus on my client, will you? Quite the interesting deal he has for you."
The BLUE DEVIL sighs. "I was willing to believe you D'arc, but if you are infected, how do I know your words are true?"

"You do not offer me anything I do not have." The BLUE DEVIL pulls out one bucket, then another. He has one hundred and one means to escape. "I am biding my time. The Union's death is assured."
"A-ah, so this trip was worthless......"
"Well, can you do it sooner? TvT"
The BLUE DEVIL looms over O-2, flexing his fist, though O-2 shows no fear. He cannot do anything that would affect her.
"Be kind." D'arc says. "Even in my state of fever, I wouldn't bring one that mocks you."
Seven masks his voice, still standing a good distance away. "Er- Yeup, yeah. Our client's a really... upstanding lady. Wouldn't be down here if she weren't serious 'bout this."
The BLUE DEVIL turns to Seven. He is silent, but the sight of Seven and D'arc assures him in his mind. "What would you do, if I did not help you? How would you help O-1?"
"Nuclear Armageddon. :D"
"What."
"If I just blow everything up, O-1 will be free, and death will be a vacation that never ends."
"I prefer the option that doesn't involve massive amount of death though, you understand? :D"
"You don't have to go that far!"
"That is true."
"But I will. :D"

The BLUE DEVIL suddenly feels.....small. If O-2 blows everything up, he will have nothing to reclaim. O-1 would be devastated, no one will have been punished. Everything he has done would have been for nothing.

"You would do all of that, for O-1?"
"I would prefer to do it for myself, for you see, I am quite greedy. But like an inconsolable child, if I cannot have my toys I will simply break them apart, much like yourself. Is that not true?~ :D"
"You!" The BLUE DEVIL strikes the ground, causing it to shake.
But the action only makes O-2 bolder in her words. "You are quite the baby aren't you? Didn't get your promotion, so you waited to ruin a whole species of people. This species is revenge upon revenge, from humans tricking humans, to notails tricking notails."
"I came here, as an advocate for the DEVIL. I assumed you realized this is ALL YOUR FAULT."

O-2 holds her spear firm. She had avoided using it until now. She takes a step forward, prompting the DEVIL to take a step back in fear. "You have hurt my friend beyond comparison. YOU are the reason why I exist in this horried universe. YOU want to blame everyone but YOURSELF."
"I...Did not-"
"Shut the fuck up."
"You think I fear GOD? I've been hunted by birds my whole life. What's a little rabbit going to do to me? So, I say this to you. You're going to clean up your toys like a good child and you're going to destroy the monster that you created."
"And then, maybe we can have a drink by the beach. A smoke by the river. A vacation, a real vacation before the end of times. :D"

"Not the answer I wanted to hear, sorry. :D" O-2 swings her arm around, launching the spear at CHAOS!
O-2 rolls a 20 sided die with a modifier of +10. A 26 is rolled.

The spear impales CHAOS' hull. CHAOS places his hand on the spear, feeling it in confusion. O-2 pulls back on a rope attached to the weapon, bringing it back to her.

"Zzzzzzzz-ttt YOU----"
"How does it feel to be the malfunctioning machine now? :D"
"Now. Let me ask you one more time...Will you get the job done? Will you accept my offer and allow us all to rest from the torture you've put us in?"
"You know, even notails treat tecats better than you have. :D" O-2 winds up her spear, ready for Chaos' answer.
D'arc grits his teeth and then, as O-2 focuses on Chaos, he strikes her in the back of the neck.
D'arc rolls a 20 sided die. A 13 is rolled.
D'arc throws O-2 to the floor. A flurry of pings from her is sent out.
Canine-7 pulls out his knife, but O-2 waves him to stand down.

Delethis swarm the area. Their jolty movements as if they were malfunctioning.

They're upset.

Chaos tries to communicate with them, but the damage to his body has disabled his abilities to ping.

The delethis start to swarm D'arc, ripping parts off him with their hands. They do not know what D'arc has done, but one of them.....what they believe to be one of them has called for help, and declared D'arc the sinner.

"Oh, you fucking-"

"Our FUCKING whore of a client is threatening nuclear Armageddon and killing one of the only friends I have in this world. Be with me, or feel free to suck the boot, buddy! I'm done with this."

D'arc throws the galehaut pheromones upwards, in hope that it will attract something from the beyond.

D'arc rolls a 20 sided die. A 12 is rolled.
Seven rushes up, and reaches for one of D'arc's hands, attempting to pull him from the swarm. "You stupid fucking asshole! Get the fuck over yourself, and stand up!"

But this was the domain of the delethis.

The swarm was ever growing. The signals endlessly being sent. The call to "kill the traitor." Where one delethis falls, 3 more take its place in the swarm. Like locusts, they pull against D'arc.

The delethis swarm rolls a 20 sided die with a modifier of +5. A 16 is rolled.
Seven rolls a 20 sided die. An 18 is rolled.

Seven manages to pull D'arc out of the swarm, though D'arc is heavily damaged. The delethis that have ripped away his parts brandishing them as weapons and shields. Seven and D'arc can only run so far until they run into another part of the swarm.

But there was something worse in their way. A hound.
"Zzzzzzzttt- ST-STOP."
"It ends the moment you agree to help. :D"
"I----------- agree."

The delethis swarm halts, like a wind up toy that has finally run out of turns.

"Do-do-do- not kill D'arc."
Seven is barely pulling D'arc into a standing position, nor is he making a great effort to. "...So we're on the same page? You're gonna buddy-buddy with our client, she's gonna drop the swarm?"

"Fear has left me, many years ago. A dragon like you can't hurt me in that fortress you hide in. :D"
She offers her blunt to Chaos. "Offer accepted? :D"
CHAOS covers his damaged face and slinks back into the gaping hole he calls a home. He lets the other inhabitant speak for them both.
"Give us a few years. You will have what you need."
She causally flips the spear in her hands. ":D"
"I NEED a few years!"
"I will fix O-1 SOON, but the destruction you want and your VACATION will need to come LATER. Do you UNDERSTAND?"
"Now that's what we call a compromise. :D"

O-2 turns and jumps on her frog, ready to leave BLUE HELL by following the rope from above.

"Cute. Awesome, even." D'arc hangs limp from seven's arms like a ragdoll. He keeps glancing back at the rabbit. "Err-"
Canine-7 points his knife at D'arc. "We should leave that one here. With his "friend," sir. The other one has done nothing wrong. :V"
"I do not care whichever way the tides shift. I have swam in the ocean today. :D"

He pats Seven in the back, struggling to walk or stand. But suggesting he goes with them, he has a bit to talk with the BLUE DEVIL. "Do not mind me, I kn-know the way back home."
"D'arc can come if he wishes, please stand down Canine. :D"
"He's an idiot and a dickhead, but he ensured we got down here safe, and that she's making her way back out..."
"I understand a man who wishes to protect his friends. Do you not? :D"

"Sure do! :V"
Canine jumps back on the blort. "Friendship can make anyone act crazy! I forgive you, fully. :V
He glances down at D'arc. "...I think you need a hospital, but whatever. It's your decision to make." He allows the AI to tumble onto the floor.
"..."
He addresses the BLUE DEVIL. "And, uh... rabbit. P-10... something. We're sorry for the, uh, trouble, I guess."

There is an awkward moment of everyone staring at D'arc.
"Oh."
"Before we go, can I ask you a thing, Blue Devil?"
"If this is a prison domain, where are the other prisoners beyond you?"

The group had exited BLUE HELL, and disbanded. Only Canine-7 and O-cat were left.

Canine-7 kneels next to O-cat. "Are you ready? :V"
