"Heh. Yeah, I thought you might."
John continued his adjustments. "If I can just get these motors to work together... Remove that barrel, fill up the helium... Need to make sure the plating's strong enough... That ought to do it!"
HK whirred about, driving in a few circles around John's foot.
"Okay, let's see here... Harper, go ahead and spread the Thermite on the door. It should hopefully weaken it enough for what I've got set up."
Picking up the robot, John set it down, so that its front was facing away from the door. "I've modified HK's flamethrower; instead of shooting fire, it's going to release a huge blast of compressed air, blowing HK back into the door. Hopefully he won't mind being used as a missile."

Luckily I've got ten or so minutes in which to post before my parents want this, so we better get this ***** off it's hinges fast...
If I don't respond to the next post then I'm off and probably won't be able to come back on so assume I'm following unless Fishy has a Hataki/Jack moment planned for me.

"Okay then." Harper got it out and worked at spreading the explosive over the door until there was a clear 'spider web' style shape right in the middle. "Fire her up then, and don't forget to say 'Knock, Knock!'!"
"One more thing...," John said as he reached into his bag, and pulled out a thin strip of magnesium and a lighter. "This is going to be bright," he muttered as he attached the metal to HK.
Turning back to Harper and Tasha, John said, "You guys might want to cover your eyes. Here goes!"
As John lit the magnesium, HK's flamethrower began sparking, before a loud WHUMP of air was released. The robot flew through the air, slamming straight into the center of the large door. The Thermite was quickly ignited by the magnesium, and instantly began burning the door, reaching extremely high temperatures very quickly.
As the flames roared, HK fell back to the ground, a little dented, but no worse for the wear. John grinned. "Knock knock."

Harper lowered his arm and looked at the burning door as he knealt to pull something from his bag. "Wow, we really know how to piss people off. Let's make ready before we head in there, 'cause I've got no idea what we'll meet but it'll sure as hell be hostile." He stood and slung his bag again, his gun in his hands before inseritng a magazine and cocking it.
(I'm being kicked off, g'night all and see youse on Sunday evening!)

Tasha frowned and muttered to himself. [sub]"impulsivity wherever I go it seems. Neh, Corina?"[/sub]
I'm going to need someone to auto David along, because I'll be gone for a few days at lake Shuswap with my grandpa. I'm gonna be leaving sometime tomorrow, but I'n not certain when.
When Hitaki stepped between the two fighting demons they stopped almost immediately. At the sight of the more monstrous form that Hitaki took on Astra merely smiled. "Well there you go sis." She seemed to totally ignore what Hitaki was saying. "Looks like it's all done now." She seemed quite pleased with herself. Then in a quick puff of bright red smoke, Astra was gone.
The other succubus was still there. She on the other hand seemed to look at Hitaki with a mixture of sadness and revulsion. "Oh Hitaki." She said, her voice sad. "I'm so sorry."

As Galio floated through the door he found himself in a large natural cavern. Just on the other side of the door stood a small figure.
While it looked somewhat like a man it barely stood 3 feet high. His face was lumpy and ruddy, his nose long and hooked, and his ears also seemed to be unusually pointed. The rest of his body was also quite dumpy, and his clothing seemed to consist of a jacket of taters and scraps. On his head was a cap of what looked like simple leather gathered into a cone, but the tip glowed with a pale light.
Whoever this was, he seemed to have just been doing something at the gate. Now he trundled away on his stubby legs and seemed to be muttering to himself in a guttural voice. A short step ladder was held under one of his arms.
Suddenly, there was a bright flare of light from the large door and they were blown wide open violently. scraps of still burning thermite rained in but quickly consumed themselves.
The short figure was caught by one of the doors as it flew open and was knocked flying a good two feet, yelling an indecipherable obscenity as he was. He eventually came to a stop on the ground, still muttering under his breath.
The large doors were now wide open, though no worse for the ware other then some serious scorch marks.

Hataki went wide eyed, realizing what happened, how she'd been led on. "Wow, tricky ones are you now..." she said and moved over to a chair, cutting the skeleton off and having control of most her body back, the claws returned back to normal.
she leaned back in the chair and started to laugh. "how did i not see it before, the way you were acting when i broke down, it caused you to break concentration, therefore you slipped and Astra had to come in and save it." Hataki started to clap her hands "Brilliant and it nearly went off without a hitch, but the one thing you couldn't count on was my mental health." she looked at David who was scratching his head at what happened "We were played on like fools. damn good job too." and she looked back at the other demon "Seeing how you reacted there is only one thing i have to ask..."
"Are you my mother?"

David scowled, leaned against a wall and began grumbling.
"[sub]Fucking Astra. Didn't even get a damn quickie.[/sub]"

Leaving now. See you guys on Tuesday.
John cautiously stepped through the doors, peering around for any sign of danger. He stopped when he saw the small man. He crouched down next to the man, and examined him.
In spite of himself, John began chuckling, "Oh, you've got to be kidding me. The man behind the curtain? Are we seriously doing this?"

Hataki looked over and smiled at David "Remember what i said, i have my tail now." and winked at him. a little grin crept across his face. "But it is improper to talk like this in front of a relative of mine, who i don't know my relation to added on top. But later after we figure out whats going on."
Tasha stepped behind John and carefully checked the pulse. [sub]"I can't feel anything... Then again that might not mean much..."[/sub] He grimaced and muttered to himself.
John turned to face Tasha. "Considering that the guy is still talking, I think he's probably fine."
HK trundled over to John, and stopped moving. "Right, I have to admit I know nothing about biology, demon or otherwise. Do you think this guy could be concussed? I've still got some questions for him."

The remaining succubus seemed sad. She also sat down in a nearby chair. Now she seemed even older then before; tired and full of regret. When Hitaki asked her the single question she seemed to wince and look away.
Slowly looking back she eventually spoke, carefully and hesitantly. "Hitaki..." She was quiet, as though not saying the words loudly would somehow make them less true. "Terra, your mother... she's gone. She's never coming back." She was quiet for some time, allowing that to sink in.
"But whatever you do; don't be sad Hitaki. Your mother and your father loved you very much." The demon herself seemed to be breaking up a little herself as she spoke. Her voice was becoming a little unsteady, and her eyes began to get a little moist.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The figure grumbled a bit and tried to pull away from Tasha's grip. "oy, le' go o' me." His voice was gravely, but still understandable.
Almost like a turtle on it's shell he seemed to be having some trouble getting his portly form back on his feet. He rocked a little back and forth on his back, but eventually stopped. His stubby little limbs hung lose for a bit. Instead he tilted his head up and looked at the students.
"os. who r' you now?"

"os. who r' you now?"
"Yes. Yes of course." The demon wiped her eyes for a moment before continuing. She even laughed a little though it still sounded tired and sad. "And yes, that's just how she's always been." She said in reference to Astra.
"Well. This isn't exactly how I saw this happening." She placed one hand over her chest, indicating herself. "I'm Umbra, your mother's older sister. Your mother, Terra, was in the middle. And Astra is the youngest of us three sisters."
