Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Inside the Legion World Tesseract System

<For several hours, or perhaps several days, a deadly game of cat and mouse has raged inside the secret Legion World Tesseract System as Hrun the Barbarian and Stoopid Cat hunt each other>

Laying in ambush Stoopid Cat listens to the labored breathing of the barbarian. Ever since Hrun managed to enter the tesseract system after their battle at SHAKES, SC has been leading the barbarian in circles. The teseracts are his creation and playground, they respond to his every whim, the barbarian has to run uphill to chase him down hill, straight passageways curve, bend, and loop behind him - forcing the barbarian to expend more and more energy in the chase.

"Following me in here was a really stupid move Hrumf! Here the advantages are all mine!"

A mere ten feet separates the two but for Hrun it might as well be ten light-years. He has already discovered that it is worse than useless to hurl his axe in the confines of the tesseracts (It has a tendancy to loop back at him) and to make matters worse the suddenly sentient statue of Fat Cramer has joined forces with Stoopid Cat.

Howling with rage the barbarian suddenly changes tactics. His axe begins to bite into the wall of the tessseract. Within seconds he has hewn a new entrance to the system and he steps through it...

"Stoopid Cat! I will have your fur for my pouch! But I will take it at a time and place of my choosing! Then I wil take these tesseracts and bend them to MY will!"

"We'll see about that Hrumbf, won't we?"

Peeering through the new opening Stoopid cat sees Hrun in the new Dreamateria...

Nice tesseract system you've built here, Stoopid Cat. I hope my statue is safe in there. Walking, talking statues are a bit unnerving.

**Purr**

Not to worry Sis. Your statue will be fine here. I don't know how or why it came to life but it has and it's definitely not happy with Hrumfb. Maybe it's trying to return the abducted statues to their rightful pedestals?

**Purr**

Let me know if you see Furball around...

SC, I've been meaning to explore this system myself, strictly for security purposes.

I'll stay out of the battle b/t you and Hrun though--it's too personnel a matter for me to intervene now. Still, I want to know how I ended up in your litter box when five seconds earlier I was looking at the statue of Invisible Brainiac...

I'd love to see my buddy Furball show up! But I'd have warn him to stay away from the barbarian with a fur fetish...

**Purr**

No idea about the litter box (except that you may have triggered ine of the tesseracts auto transport tubes, I kind of forgot where I put some of them...

Also, while you're wandering around in here remember Abin has to dump the litterbox somewhere, and a few of the side tunnels do smell a little odd.

**Purr**

Nice system you've got here, SC. I see that in addition to the portal at SHAKES, there's one at SHAMELESS HUSSIES. That would be of special benefit to ICEFIRE. During his breaks as a bartender at SHAKES, he could pop over to SHAMELESS HUSSIES for a quick pole dance and pick up some extra credits. That is, if ICEY ever comes back to work. Anyone seen him around?

Not lately, but I haven't seen a lot of the good looking guys that work at Shameless Hussies either. Maybe he's giving them a lesson in flirting?

<Hm...definately don't want to go down that tunnel...>

Hey Stoopid Cat! Great tesseract network! Listen, I just wanted to warn you that Connie is in a major snit right now and I get the feeling that SOME of it just might be directed at you. If you see her before she sees you, you just may want to run!

Of course, if she sees Hrun first you have nothing to worry about. She's got vengence on her mind and he's going to experience it if I know my Connie.

PS: Tell Abin you're litter box in here needs to be changed. Smells like it's been accumulating for months in here!

Hrun Walks through the tesseract system.

"By the gods this is the spot"

Opening a small pouch, he takes out a vial and pours the liquid contents out onto the floor.

A small wisp of smoke rises from the spot. Hrun takes the amulet and passes it through the smoke. Then putting it around his neck he walks off.

"Now by the potions of the witch queen, this tesseract system is mine to control"

"Witch queen"? Sounds like Thora's been smuggling some new mind-warping drugs from Taltar.

Nice system, BTW, Stoopid Cat.

<Enters Tesseracts from SHAKES, Immediately recognizes the stench of evil magic. Long loping TIGER GOD AVITAR strides carry him swiftly to the spot where Hrun's potion befouled his tesseracts. Swiftly he relieves himself onto the spot, thus neutralizing the potion.>

**ROAR**

HRUMBF, I'M COMING FOR YOU, NEXT

**ROAR**

Unfortunately this was exactly what Hrun was expecting.

As the steam rose from the extinguished potion it curled itself around the Tiger God Avatar. hidden in the steam were, well lets just say passengers.

These passengers will bide their time and will assist Hrun in a final battle.

Whew, this place smells like a barbarian took a big dump in an abandoned corner...


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Not the place I'd hide a baby But, what do I know... Handy for getting around though... there's an opening to that new Island...)

I'll take your word for it.

Keep an eye out for anything out of the oridnary.

What could be considered out of the ordinary, Here?


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Hey, I just discovered where Semi keeps the SHAKES Booze Supply!)

Babies, sorceresses, defensive linemen....use your best judgement.

And what if we find all three rolled into one?


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Kind of an Elmo Sapp Merlin thing, Ya'know?)

I think cutting and running would work pretty well as a strategy.

I'm gonna try out the scanner down here, see if we can pick up anything now that we're on the inside. If you've got any super-senses, now's the time to focus 'em.

Well, using the super-sense of smell is out!

But I do see something way off in the distance over there!

Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(We're looking for a baby, right? And it's not one of Cobie's Kids, right?)

Hey guys! My patrol isn't going so hot so I thought I'd run in here and give you guys a...

*suddenly trips over the object in the distance*

Egads! What was that?

I don't know.

Did it squeak when you hit it?

Ummm... Future, you might want to back away... Slowly... from that... whatever it is...


Truth and Justice shall Prevail!
(Miner, please tell me the kid we're looking for isn't one of COBIE'S KIDS!!!!)
