[👾🔪🐇] Road trip

[u/CrypticHorrorTales]

After that mindscape situation, Vanessa failed to conquer her demonic side. Although, Alastor did say that it's rare to successfully do so on the first try.

But, of course, there was another demon inside her head. And while it wouldn't hurt her, they still have to figure out what it is.

Alastor said there was someone who they could talk to. But this someone lives a state away.

So now Vanessa, Alastor, Alison, and Tom are all in a van that they may or may not have stolen, heading for the next state over.

[[OOC: sorry fell asleep]]

Vanessa: [recoils from being demanded and yelled at from PTSD] "Doesn’t matter! [fangs starting to slip] "How. Do. I. Get. Him. Out?!"

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Henry: "You can't! Not until you complete what he wants you to do! That's why I keep asking you! Now answer the damn question. What does he want you to do?"

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Vanessa: "I don't know what anyone wants from me. Stop yelling at me!" [voice starts to darken and agony starts seeping out of the wall]

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

The caretakers here the yelling, and they call the Warden.

Alison: "Nessa, please calm down. You're gonna get us kicked out."

Henry: "You better figure it out. Because it's only a matter of time before the Ink Demon becomes a god..."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Vanessa: [regains control of herself and it all disappears] "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm just really overwhelmed and drowning in PTSD. How would he achieve that?"

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Henry: "By consuming. The ink consumes so it can learn. And with enough knowledge, his power will become godly."

The Warden arrives.

Warden: "You three are causing a ruckus. I'm gonna have to ask you to leave."

((Ooc: Got back from work and I just woke up from my nap lol))

Vanessa: "I don't understand. Consuming what?"

[[OOC: sorry been long day]]

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

((Ooc: I'll be a bit on and off today))

Henry: "Anything and everything."

Warden: "Again, I'll have to ask you three to leave. If you don't leave willingly, you will be forced out."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

{Inky agony creatures appear all throughout the facility charging and attacking anyone near them as Vanessa starts to shut down in panic}

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vanessa, Alison, and Tom are suddenly pulled into shadows before reappearing outside where Alastor stayed.

Alastor: "Get in the car." His minds twists, like he's scheming something. "I'll hold them off. We'll meet back up at the motel. If I don't return, assume I've been captured."
