Red Sands (Closed, IC)

The intent was made very clear. The door, its reinforcements, and part of the wall itself were blown inward as the arrows detonated, Sending bits of shrapnel flying towards the various patrons.

A large part of the door slammed into both Clogori and Svytoj, sending both flying backward.

As the dust and sand fluttered into the bar, a figure could be seen standing in the newly opened entrance, their dark red cloak fluttering madly in the storm. In one hand, A sarpa. in the other, an Attica.

The figure scanned the crowd, obviously looking for something.
"Where is he..?" the figure asked.

"Dear guest, you are interrupting the other patrons~ I suggest you put your weapons away and fix up the damages you incurred or things will get... difficult~"

Over in the corner table, Aria's smile jumps several levels in psychotic. By the counter, Mia's hands are hanging loosely by her side and Jane's now taking up cover under the countertop

Fenrir had only taken a swig of the hot drink when the doors blasted apart. 

¨What´s this all about?¨ He groaned standing up.
A chunk of one of the doors hurtled towards Fenrir, to which he responded with a snap. The object turned to ash that fell to the floor rather slowly. 

¨Why don´t you apologise to the woman for damaging her bar?¨ The wolf asked stepping closer. The red liquid in his armour began glowing a more intense red as he walked. 

Meanwhile, Ymir was simply standing behind Fenrir, his fists slowly getting colder and coated in Ice.

A bottle behind the bartender explode.
"Dax and Sentient's are difficult... you're just the warmup." The intruder said as the barrel of his sarpa smoked. "Now...where is the Frost...?"

Clogori had entered the rift as the door exploded, keeping himself safe. Instantly, he made a small Cataclysm bubble in the doorway, and used stasis to stop the sand and the intruder.

The intruder saw Clogori raise his hand. Sh1t... for got about Limbos...
The sand and the intruder where immediately frozen in stasis as Clogori put his limbo to use.
....
No. It wasn't the intruder. It was only his cloak, and bit of his armor. Where did he go?
Suddenly, a crossbow bolt embedded itself in the floor near Clogori, detonating as the Intruder erupted from the crowd.
Guess I'll just have to improvise.

The intruder simply responded mid flight with a spray of lead from his sarpa, continuing on his path towards.

Svytoj pushed the fragment of the door off him as he stood to his feet, trying to get a sense of what had happened.
Then he saw the Intruder.

Clogori rolled away from the arrow, and quickly tried to banish the attacker, hoping he'd actually be able to keep him in stasis this time.

The bullets melted mid flight.

¨That was rude.¨Fenrir muttered.
He responded by lifting his hands into the air causing a pillar of flames to sprout from the ground and surround the intruder.

"I asked you politely the first time~ The consequences afterwards-" the bartender says, before reappearing right in front of the figure, taking her black gloves off and exposing her porcelain hands. "are yours alone~"

With terrifying speed, the bartender smashes the figure's chest with both hands with enough force to launch even an armored Rhino backwards. At the point of impact, flesh and metal alive begins to corrode and dissolve like wet paper. The stench of spices are now overwhelming in the torrential wind.

A sudden surge of energy pulsed though the intruders shield as the bartenders fists made contact, launching him across the bar.
The hit knocked him out of the path of Clogori's banishment and soaring out of the fire column.
He was scorched, had two fist shaped patches of necrotized skin on his chest, his chest plate had been rusted at the contact point, but for the most part, his shield had saved him at the cost of a dead battery.

Even better for him, The bartender was now directly in the path of both the fire column, and Clogori's banishment.

Svytoj stood up from under the rubble, firing his soma the the intruder.

"Right away, dear guest~" Lily replies, as she switches off with the youngest waiter as she heads into the kitchen. Not as much flair from the waiter as she mixes up the cocktails, but the visual effects in the metal mugs didn't drop in quality at all. Right on cue as the waiter finishes up the Voids Embraces, the head bartender walks back out carrying a plate of loaded chips.

"Two plates of seafood and greens nachos for each of you~" the bartender says, dropping the dishes down without so much as a *clunk*. "Enjoy, the local cheese down here is *very* difficult to acquire, but well worth it~"

They both chow down and after they're done, they sigh with contentment. 

Zaben: "Thanks for the meal."

They both put down their payment on the counter and relax.

Clogori started shifting in and out of the rift repeatedly as he started to hover slightly. He raised his arms, and his hat (Or whatever that thing that Limbos have on their heads is called) started to hover.

Sarah vaulted over the countertop, taking cover behind it. Abigail followed suit moments later.

"Without our warframes, we'd just get in the way." she explained to Abigail, who nodded. Sarah would be more than happy to join in normally, but in these cramped conditions more fighters tended to simply obstruct one another. Getting out of the way way actually more helpful than joining in.

Sarah turns to Jane, giving her a helpless shrug.

"I'm guessing by your reaction this doesn't happen a lot? I recommend plugging your ears, for when the gunshots start going off. You too, Abigail."

The intruder fired several explosive bolts at Clogori, moving as far back from the Limbo as he could before the the first cataclysmic blast began

The sound of the gunfire temporally drew the Intruders attention. He looked Svytoj dead in the eyes.
"...Found you..."

The intruder looked back at Clogori as he braced for Impact.

The intruder looked back at Clogori as he braced for Impact.

The shots went right through Clogori as he shifted into the rift. A moment later, he finished casting the Cataclysm, and everyone was completely frozen. He had surrounded the entire bar and the surrounding area with the Cataclysm, and kept Stasis active, rendering the entire area immobilized.

He wouldn't be able to keep the Cataclysm active indefinitely. He immediately pulled put his Magnus pistols and approached the intruder.

(Since Cataclysm has no negative effects on allies in the game, let's just assume the same goes for this. Otherwise, due to the reworked Cataclysm's scaling, everyone would die instantly.

As Clogori approached, small ripples of void energy could be seen around the intruder. Regardless of what he was trying to do, It was obvious he was still locked in place.

"Nice try." Clogori said. He fired two shots, aiming them at the intruder's knees, and fired another two at his shoulders. Each bullet stopped moving after they got a few inches away from the barrels of the pistols.

"This Frost is clearly more concerned about your presence than I am. This should help him out." Said Clogori, before looking at the surrounding area, observing the chaos and the sandstorm all frozen in place.

Clogori could hear a deep breath being released, from the intruder. He was still locked in place, but he was obviously aware of what was happening.

Clogori released stasis for an extremely small amount of time, just long enough for the bullets to make contact. It would be basically impossible for the intruder to dodge at this range.

The rounds made contact, One already digging into the exposed flesh on the right shoulder, the other sparking off part of the armor on the other, with both bullets near the knee already making contact.
But there was something off: the mans position was...different, every so slightly: The right shoulder was closer to the round, with the left further. Even the mans legs seemed to be twisted. The bullets would still hit, but it was obvious that the joints would be almost completely spared.
Worse, the void ripple around the man had changes slightly: the ripples around the mans right hands had expanded just enough for his fingers to wiggle slightly.
The man flexed his fingers slightly; bring it. he gestured.

"I already know how this is going to go. You're going to barely dodge all of my stasis attacks until I get frustrated and release stasis and/or you regain control of your body, then you completely annihilate me with some new, random ability I've never seen before. How about we skip that part?" Said Clogori, as he pulled out his Kronen and stabbed the intruder repeatedly while he was still in stasis.

"I think that's quite enough." a voice said, as a figure in the shadows rose from his seat. ((I'm presuming that the bar doesn't have electric lighting, and the sandstorm would be blocking out all the outside light))

The Constable walked forward, a large revolver in each hand.

"You want to fight, take it outside." he growled, beckoning to the raging wall of sand visible now that the door was kicked down. "Otherwise, put the weapons away."

Several pools of blood formed in the space between the man and the thin barrier of void energy holding the stasis st bay, each drop entering stasis as they passed out of the void.

"...God...damnit..." the intruder grunted.

"All that sand out there, with those winds," the Constable said, "Probably strong enough to strip you of your shields in an instant, and scour the flesh from your bones. If you don't lay down your arms, all of you, I'll throw you out there."

He glanced over at the limbo.

"Take him out of stasis."

The man coughed, then began laughing. "Look at all y'all; hopped up on your lions share of the void." He blurted as more blood poured from him "...and here we got this rift demon talking about one sided combat..." He was still laughing. "...fine, fine... you want me gone, I'll go." He said as he limped to the hole in the wall. "But y'all ain't gettin off that easy..." he said as he flung a small cylinder into the crowd. And in a blink, he was gone. As the cylinder hit the floor it began to hum, void energy coalescing around it.

To those familiar with old orokin tech, it looked like a small cascade bomb.

(( don't worry. Not gonna insta-kill anyone, just giving the bar a scare))
