The Good Doctor [Mission]

[Skulking Shinzu]

Various whispers tell of a doctor in the Land of Wind. A heinous, cruel, and evil doctor specialising in the most illegal of genetic modifications. Of all the various cities in each Country, there always seemed to be a recluse few that harbour a special hatred for those with Ritual Augmentations. A gateway to the devil, some would call it. Of all these places, you find that the deepest cluster of these rumours seem to be focused around a small town within the Land of Wind, which is suggested to house latest of the ‘good’ doctor’s hidden laboratories.

Some wish death upon the doctor, purely because his dabbling’s with science go against the very fundamentals of nature. Chimera. Monsters. Formless blobs. Rare few witnesses that describe such beasts tend to blame their very existence on the doctor and his mad experiments. While the majority wouldn’t go that far, most do seem in agreement that the nameless doctor is responsible for the disappearance of many children and healthy workers around several key villages around the mountainous region of the country. Whether to put a end to the doctor’s work, to rescue any innocents, or simply to seek out the doctor’s services, these whispers interest you greatly.

Knowledge was something i obsessed over with, regardless of the type. Whether it was power that came from said knowledge, or simple laughter, i wanted it all - i craved it , i needed it - its mine. So, if you were me - after hearing about some doctor capable of doing unnatural things, creating unnatural monsters...wouldnt you be curious? wouldnt you want to know if the rumors were true? A big malicious smile appeared onto my face as i floated slowly aided by my magic - my body had grown too powerful and filled with wonders that i became unwilling to walk , i did not want my beautiful feet to touch the disgusting ground that humans walk over daily.

The rumors must've come from somebody , and that somebody was the one i needed to find .It was late evening, the sky was gray and due to the clouds the sunrays felt the unfulfilled need to shine through,uncapable of doing so. Taking advantage of this natural darkness i grabbed one of those human monkeys that were casually blabbing about the impossible and as i squeezed hard on his throat, but not hard enough for him to die - i lifted him up and as my eys burned with passion i pushed him against a wall , two feet from the ground. My beautiful purple belly pushing against his, entrapping him completly.

"Tell me everything."

[Skulking Shinzu]

The villager’s eyes blinked in horror at the sight of the giant purple plum with limbs. Mouth agape, he couldn’t quite seem to muster even a scream as his eyes met with the bloated nightmarish demon. He knew what this was. The purple demon’s words all but seemed to confirm it. She had to be one of the good doctor’s experiments. Likely, one sent to hush all the rumours of him that had spread like wildfire as of late.

Shuddering slightly, the villager’s muscular limbs suddenly grew limp and hung loosely as if to say he had accepted his fate. If the doctor wanted him dead, or worse, to whisk him away to his lair, then no force on earth could save him. None, aside from the force of a mob. “On guard men!” Dancing balls of flame suddenly began to illuminate an area in the distance as a mob of villagers brandishing pitchforks and torches snaked along the path Big Mama had come from. They had spotted the floating purple demon not so long ago, courtesy of the neighbourhood watch. Nighttime was assumed to be when the doctor prowled to snatch up his victims. Naturally, this would be the time that the villagers would be most on guard. Hearing their footsteps and chanting, the villager caught in the chokehold suddenly sprung to life. As if reborn, he began screaming for help while pounding away at the bloated purple creature’s chokehold with his two thick hands.

[Starnaess]

The man's fists would hit my beautiful belly , bouncing right off of it. "Hahahah" as my feminine devilish laughter escaped my lips after seeing the man fidgeting. My attention was briefly caught by the numerous monkeys that had appeared to my left - "Fine fine, you can have him back" i threw him towards the mob coming my way and the moment i let go of him, i did a serie of handseals -  as the nutrients within me escaped my body, a jelly substance formed around me - giving me a beautiful pink looking dress with a cape which fit me perfectly like a second skin.

"Who needs a hug now?" my newly formed skin stretched over my mouth showing them my wide array of pearly white teeth. I then dashed towards them.

[Skulking Shinzu]

The previously neat and tidy line-like formation immediately shattered the moment the bulbous purple thing tossed the villager towards the mob. At that moment, the first line of defence immediately collapsed to break the villager’s trajectory. Dropping their weaponry and torches, several villagers helped the man-handled man up. Clearly, these were no professionals.

For a moment, there seemed to be calm and peace in the air. However, this was broken by the screaming and wailing of grown men as they registered Big Mama’s threat. Such a display of teeth could only mean one thing. They were about to be eaten. Stepping forwards, five of the eighteen villagers still carrying weapons formed a front line in front of the others with pitchforks pointed towards Big Mama. They were no Shinobi or spearmen, that was for sure. However, even common farmers could cause serious damage if given the chance.

[Starnaess]

These villagers stood no chance against my beauty...they just did not know how beautiful i was yet, they needed to hug me first! "Come here little monkeys!" i screamed as i kept running towards them - the sticky substance around me began to expand up to Gargantuan size , covering the entire alleyway and attempting at submerging the villagers. If  succesful, everysingle one in the area would become immobilized. Otherwise i would keep trying until i was done capturing all of them.

[Skulking Shinzu]

The villagers stabbed into the oddly viscous body of the purple demon. However, rather than drawing blood or striking against inevitable bone, their weapons simply going in further and further, as if being swallowed by freakish purple jello.”Help!” Cried out one of the more observant grunts. “Flee!” Called out another as the growing purple mass struck and assimilated him.

The back line of the mob were the first to break out into a panicked dash. However, as the cries of mercy suggested, there was no escape. “Noo! Please! Help us!” Chanted individual voices in a sea of chatter. Slime dripped from Big Mama and coated everything in her Gargantuan path. Helpless, the remnants of the mob were unable to even move their limbs in defiance as they sunk into Big Mama’s swelling body. Inside, their voices were drowned out. Only bubbles could escape their lips as they swum within the demon’s body helplessly. It seemed all but hopeless. All had surrendered, aside from two individuals who seemed to be making an effort to swim upwards, with a pitchfork in their dominant hands. Their target, the only organ they could find within the viscous purple liquid. The core of the demon. Her nuclei.

[Starnaess]

The gum had swallowed everything in its path creating a sea of pink death, while most of them gave up on their lives, two of them felt rather corageous as they kept  effortlessly stabbing the gum. However there was simply too much gum and as they kept swinging it kept wrapping around them until they could no longer stab anything.  "Ah yes that was a nice beal Hihahahahah" i said while laughing and watching the gum shrink.

With a quick  shift in my chakra i had wrapped all of the villagers caught in my jutsu in a huge ball of gum , their body stuck inside and their heads sticking out like a human spike ball. I circled around it tapping with my index the foreheads of some of the humans until i stopped in front of one. "You!" i paused and took a deep breath "You, tell me everything you know about the doctor - You will score a point based on the information you give me - after he is done, everybody else will be able to speak in turns, and the one that gives me the most information will survive - while the others will die. Ah and dont even think about lying because you will only get free after i confirm what you say"

[Skulking Shinzu]

The two plucky young villager’s quest had ended before it had even begun upon realising that they weren’t trapped within the jelly of a slime or ooze demon. No, this wasn’t liquid at all. It was far too thick and sticky to be that. They were within gum. On top of that, not even the demon’s gum. They seemed to be trapped within something else upon spotting the demon circling the structure keeping them held in place.

“I… I…” The man was about to crumble under Big Mama’s provocation. No one even seemed to be willing to stop the villager from answering. Their fate had been sealed the moment they had decided to raise their weapons against a creation of the good doctor. There would be no surviving this encounter – a realisation, which made the man shut his mouth tight. As hard as Big Mama tried, none of the villager’s would speak or respond to her threat. If she attempted to poke another head, then the villager would simply bite at her finger in a futile attempt at causing her harm.

[Starnaess]

The moment the villagers all got silent felt like a flame igniting gasoline inside of me , but instead of an actual flame - rage filled me. "Fine - how about this, if you speak now i will let go every single one of you, and for every second you dont speak - i shall kill one." If the villagers did not speak my hand would find its way towards one of the heads stuck in gum and it would start to push slowly so that the villagers had even more time to speak , if they still refused the head would be submerged and the person would have roughly a minute before he would die.

[Skulking Shinzu]

In that single line of uttered dialogue, the villager’s steadfast resolve all but wavered. Was this bloated purple demon to be believed? If the purple creature wanted information, then all it had to do was ask. No, this was most certainly a trick. The majority of the villagers knew as much. Big Mama had to have been sent by the doctor himself to find out how much the village knew of his existence. They would not speak. They were resolved to die the moment they had raised their torches and pitchforks in unity.

“Wait!” Screamed a feminine voice as a door behind Big Mama slammed open. An elderly woman attempted to restrain the figure, but the younger blonde-haired woman simply wriggled free from the grip before throwing herself at the ground beside Big Mama while weeping and sobbing. “Please spare him! I-I’ll speak.” In between her sobbing and stuttering, and the restrained mobs yelling, it was difficult to make out what she was saying. However, a few key facts were clear.

“He sends monsters to kidnap our children and men at the dead of night.”

“We don’t know where he is.”

“Sometimes rumours flare in the South. Sometimes the North.”

“Right now… Everyone seems to think he is in the West, somewhere in the mountains.”

"Every few weeks... The rumours change."

That seemed to be all the information that could be obtained from the woman as she sobbed at the sight of the man slowly being pushed into the gum-like substance. Even with the restrained mob yelling at her to shut up, there seemed to be nothing stopping her from saying more. Simply, this was all she knew. All she could do now was plead and sob at Big Mama to free the captives, with a special emphasis on the man whose head she still had a tight grip on.

[Starnaess]

"The west huh?" I smiled as i placed  my big purple hand on top of the girl's head and began patting her - good job my dear" - with the other hand i snapped my fingers and the man whom i was pushin in earlier began emerging from the puddle and after a few seconds he was free. "Now, like i said - i keep my promises - tell me more and ill let those that give me more information go." I then stepped back to a llow the man to reach the girl and i crossed my arms waiting while my i placed my weight on my left foot while my right was in front of me tapping the ground.

[Skulking Shinzu]

The girl winced and recoiled at the purple demon’s touch. However, her tearful eyes couldn’t help but light up as her lover was freed from the pink ooze. Slamming into each other, the two held each other tightly and embraced – a sight which caused the remainder of the mob to break their silence. In a sea of uncontrolled chatter and chaos, the villagers all spoke in a barrage of verbal diarrhea. Due to the panic and fear on everyone’s faces, it was impossible to tell which rumours were true and which were false. Most agreed that the latest set of rumours suggested that the doctor whisked his targets away towards the West. However, older rumours were less consistent and suggested the doctor could be found all over the continent. Some suggested that he did the kidnapping himself. Others suggested he sent minions. Some, even suggested that the doctor dug up graves to only perform his experiments on the dead. Either way, Big Mamma now had a plethora of information to work with.

OOC: You have now discovered several leads. You may continue your interrogation, or attempt to track down the doctor. There is a 20% chance you will succeeded, and 10% chance that you will attract the attention of goons. Actions you perform during the search may increase the odds of finding the doctor, or increase the odds of a dangerous encounter. Relevant details will be revealed as you post.

[Starnaess]

I sighed after hearing the same story over and over - clearly these people were clueless and this doctor must be doing the things right for the whole village to know nothing. However, there was a thing that i knew for certain, the doctor was experimenting on people - he kidnapped them - and since i needed answer from him, ill kidnap them for him. "Thank you for your kindness - the show is over , now be quiet , your voices are way too damn annoying." The pink blop expanded once more , engulfing the area and capturing the remaining villagers , their heads would stick out of the huge pink ball but their eyes and their mouths were sealed by more gum - said gum which would  still be attatched to me , and covering me at the same time, but still giving me freedom of movement. I would then start heading toward west , looking for more clues.

Taking the more violent of routes, Big Mama had opened herself up to becoming a target – both to those aligned with good, and to bad. Her journey West would pose no problems, and eventually, steep inclines and grassy roads shifting to grey stone suggested that she was at the base of one of many mountains. Something told her that even if she couldn’t find the doctor, the muffled screaming of all the captives behind her would likely attract someone that knew of him.

OOC: Chance of finding doctor +10%. Chance of encountering goons +10%.1-100·1-100

[Starnaess]

There was nothing else to do but continue towards anything that resembled life - housed , ruins - anything where more of these white monkeys could live. The moment i found someone alive i would immediatly try to capture him to then interrogate him. Since i was bored i began poking the head of one of the humans closest to me . everytime i did i would draw pleasure from the muffled screams and the smell of fear on him.

There seemed to be nothing of value found during Big Mama’s search. In fact, walking towards civilisation seemed to be leading her away from the mountains and towards another village as evident by the stony ground transforming into manmade dirt roads. However, before another village could come into sight, Big Mama would pause at the sound of… Something. All her taunting of the screaming heads seemed to have attracted the attention of bandits. Hidden away, Big Mama would be unable to see them. Instead, the only trace of their existence would be three arrows fired at her from her left, right and rear. 1-100·1-100

[Starnaess]

My eyes shined as three arrows came my way "Finally...some fun..." the pink gum around me expanded as the arrows came and after they kept piercing through, they suddently stopped - only to be flipped back towards the exact direction where they were shot from with the same power. The air around me started to frizzle ever so slightly as a dark sand came out of me - a single spear  was formed and it kept floating near me. "Come out and play little monkeys."

[Skulking Shinzu]

The arrows were successfully reflected at the attackers. However, due to the cover the bandits had been using to hide, Big Mama would only hear the sound of stone striking against stone as the arrows struck nothing more than tall rocky surfaces. The lack of a metallic sound suggested to Big Mama that these were rudimentary weapons crafted from the surroundings. These were no professions or hired assassins. “What the hell are you!” The horrified voice came from Big Mama’s right. However, there was no sign of the bandit that it had come from. Judging by the tone, it would be clear that the man was more horrified by Big Mama’s appearance, than her skilful use of gum and iron sand.

“Drop those people and leave peacefully. And while you’re at it, leave behind your Ryo too. This can end peacefully.” Suggested a voice from Big Mama’s left. If she turned to look, seconds later, a volley of three arrows would fire from the blind spot in her right.

[Starnaess]

"You and your primitive weapons - monkeys..." As i was saying that i was completing a serie of handseals necessary for my next beautiful jutsu. All of a sudden everything around me in a range of 50 meters started to frizzle and a splitsecond later it started to be forcefully pulled towards me at the same time  as my gum expanded once more to gargantuan size ready to absorb everything. Trees, bushes , rocks and everything except for human beings would be drawn towards me - the fact that the human beings were not directly affected by this did not matter - for they would find themselves in a storm of flying things - if thye ever managed to not die from the debris flying all over the place , i would do my best to isolate them and interrogate them .
