I finally escape that facility, and then I get thrown into this? Ah well, better than getting hunted by those scientists some more. Syvex examined his surroundings, taking advantage of the night's darkness. As far as he could sense, he was on top of some sort of aqueduct, suspended high in the air. He could tell there were buildings ahead, but couldn't tell many details from the distance. He could also detect faint signs of the creatures the Prestidigitator had mentioned. The "Prestidigitator"? What a nutjob. But if it's a fight to the death he wants, who am I to disappoint?
Syvex glanced over the other 7 competitors, all of whom were within his vision radius. Nothing worse than what I've faced. Shouldn't be a problem, as long as I don't get too careless. He could faintly hear some cries of pain from within the town ahead; more residents succumbing to the monstrosities within. He decided he might need to be careful here; he couldn't tell what was ahead from this distance other than vague outlines of buildings.
But maybe I can form an... alliance of sorts with some of the competitors. It could be helpful if they're not all trying to kill me. He looked at the competitors again for potential allies. The mimic? It doesn't seem all that dangerous. Probably approachable, at the very least. The cultist I'd rather stay away from. Something's just not right with him and that... pincushion. The girl with the funny name? It's probably safe to approach her as well. Even if it's not, what's she gonna do? Smite me with the power of cloth? The scientist... Ugh. I'd rather steer clear of scientist. The Prestidigitator mentioned something about chemicals, though. Maybe he has something of interest. Then there's the sand guy. He's definitely not a threat here, with the remarkable absence of sand. Harmless enough for now. The fireflies I'll steer clear of as well. Producers of light... horrid. And then, finally, there's the pirate. I think he's afraid of me, he could be entertaining. ...I wonder where he's headed in such a hurry.
Syvex noticed Blackmask rushing off towards the abandoned buildings up ahead. No doubt in search of treasure or something. Typical of pirates. Well, no sense sticking around here. Syvex slunk down the side of the aqueduct and continued along the side, not unlike a gecko clinging to a wall. After he was sure of which building the pirate was headed toward, he clambered around to the inside of the wall, where it was even darker than the surroundings. He could clearly see into the building now. Let's have some fun, Ripper. Syvex channeled dark energy through his arm, creating a small, swirling rift, dark purple in color, suspended in the air next to him. The portal opened into the ceiling of the building's foyer, and he prepared to get the drop on the pirate as soon as he entered.
