Re: Attack on Trollian [Roleplay thread] [Open]

Liam followed Jack, appearing quite distraught at how fast he was going. He found himself wondering whether or not Jack was completely insane or not. Didn't he realize that they could easily die at any given moment? He would've thought that even he would not attempt to do something this stupid without planning anything ahead of time. The trio soon found themselves closing in on one titan, Liam watched as Jack slashed at the nape of the giants neck, he was astounded by how fearless the guy seemed at the moment. He watched as Jack flew off after slaying the titan, he would need to carry his own weight like that soon, as would Oridum. Now was not the time to act like a coward, he needed to follow in Jack's example and be courageous, only then would he ever be a true asset to humanity. "Follow my lead!" He yelled out to Oridum who nodded; still appearing quite nervous at the current event. Liam locked onto a nearby titan and flew at its neck's nape, slashing at it with his blade. The cut was not strong enough to kill it.

Oridum watched as Liam slashed at the titan's neck's nape in the heat of the moment. This seemed oddly uncharacteristic for him, he had never thought of him as a brave sort of guy, or even all that reliable to be honest. He then heard Liam call out to him, he was saying that Oridum needed to finish the titan off before it was too late, he also heard a couple of insults thrown at him, most likely just for good measure. Oridum felt incredibly nervous, a feeling of self doubt washed over him, but he could not bear to waste anymore time, he had to man up and prove that he wasn't just some useless cadet. He grappled onto the titan's back after doing a loop to get behind it, as it had turned around to face him once Liam had slashed at him for the first time. Oridum slashed as hard as he could at the nape, he wasn't sure whether or not the cut was sufficient enough to kill it, but his question was soon answered. The titan had fallen over, he felt an immense sense of pride, he had killed it.

Jack had gone ahead while his teammates stayed behind, he heard a large thud and hoped that meant that they had successfully managed to kill a titan, he refused to look back at them for some reason. He saw a titan up ahead, the same blood lust from before had consumed him, he had to kill it. Jack grappled onto its shoulder, he had it all planned out, he would propel himself to the monstrosity's back and swipe a clean kill. He propelled himself as planned, but something went wrong, his wires had gotten looped around the titans neck. He was now attached to it. The titan let out a large yell of annoyance as it bit off the wire and grabbed Jack in its hand. All of his previous courage had quickly faded, he now found himself crying for help. "C-comrades! Please I-I am in need of your assistance!" no one came, he seemed to be too far for anyone to clearly notice his screams. "Comrades! Hurry!" still no one came. Tears had begun to come from his eyes rapidly, the titan had thrown him into its mouth and swallowed him down, leaving him to burn in the creature's insides. There was a liquid there, it was burning him, another cadet was there; she was also screaming for help while her body was being destroyed, it was horrifying. Jack had no chance of survival, this was his end, he had not lived up to his words, he was nothing more than a fool.
