It was bound to happen. The Null warned you, after all, and this has been building for awhile - and now it's here. First comes the initial attack, the agents of the Null attacking Hope's temple. Then, an SOS, warning the city of what's happened: a betrayal, and Hope being injured. Luckily for everyone, thanks to the actions of his guards Hope survives the attack. Unluckily, his attacker, the goddess Delight, escapes and lets the Null in.
Flooding into the cave, the Null will attack anyone who they believe is resisting them. They'll destroy buildings and deploy dangerous crowd control weapons, in addition to their sheer strength and speed. Confusion empties the monsters in the tunnels into the city, to help distract the Null. Some gods fight, others provide safe havens, but everyone is in danger.
After about a week and a half of the attack, Fear summons enough power to teleport the city. This stops any new Null from arriving through the tunnels, but the remaining Null must be hunted down and destroyed, or else they'll signal their location to the rest of their species. The danger will lessen as Null are taken out, but things won't really be safe until Fear moves the city again, so don't get too comfortable.
What will you do? Run and hide? Fight? Help the fighters? Turn on the gods yourself? Whatever you do, it's time to make a decision.► This log covers November 25th-December 12th.
► Feel free to make your own logs, as well
► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply
► Please put your character's name and open/closed in the subject line of your starters!
► If you get taken out by the Null, please let us know here.

He noticed her falter. Saw her limp. He assumes that she wouldn't have moved further if she didn't immediately need to. Maybe she was relying on his hesitation over her words to move a little more. But it isn't Rey. So those words mean nothing to him.
His aim adjusts.
The whirring noise of energy halts with a click.
A straight beam with a diameter of about two inches erupts from the gun and the recoil reels his arm straight up. The beam pierces straight through the wall and everything after that. It only lasts a few seconds but as it fades, the matter it came into contact with is just gone and has left the surrounding material intact. There's also an incredible residual heat. Any relatively flammable material within the radius of the hole catches flame. Embers hover through the air.
He knows it didn't hit her. He can't smell the burning flesh. Though she would be impervious to that aspect of the emitter, wouldn't she? If he actually did hit her, that would be all the better for him. Though he definitely wasn't counting on it. Instead he had aimed it to the far side of the wall to draw her out the other. Since once the shot subsided, he began to close the distance in a weak sprint.
But he's compensating too. The blood now trailing along behind him.
no subject
A chunk of debris flies, hits the back of Rey's shoulder. She grunts. Starts to grab her throbbing arm, then stops. No time.
If her intention was to kill, she could draw her own firearm and be done with it. But her desire isn't a shootout so much as a brawl. Just has to take care of that gun.
What's left of the wall in front of her crashes under the thrust of her boot, kicking it down and charging through. She sees Kyrii on the other side doing the same. Her hands ball into fists as she throws herself against his midsection. Using herself as a battering ram to stop his speed.
Her bones are still searing, but she ignores it. He's hurt too. She can use that.
no subject
Their bodies meet and he immediately finds a hold on her to prevent himself from being thrown backward. He's still shifted back from her own weight pressing against his, the ground crunching beneath his feet.
What's worse is the impact to his abdomen. He winces as the wound on his side tears open. Some Null got in a good hit. Now he's regretting ever letting that happen. He has to get her away from it before she figures that out.
He tries to pull her downward to the ground to get his weight over hers.
no subject
Null don't bleed. Which means that he does.
We're just human enough... to give a shit.
Why Rey is thinking that now, she doesn't know. She just tightens her grip around Kyrii, before throwing him in the air. He might as well be a ragdoll, when she bridges her spine and hurls the synthetic man onto his back.
no subject
But he didn't expect her to be able to lift him like this with whatever injury she had.
The drop brings him onto his shoulder first. The ground cracks under his weight as the rest of his body collapses. His vision blurs from the impact. His hand finds his bleeding side. Through clenched teeth, he forces himself back around onto his knees. This can't go on for much longer already. He's too worn down. He has to end it faster.
Bringing a knee up, he reaches inside his jacket to retrieve the gun again. He swings around in her direction to fire at point-blank range—
The click is met with silence.
It doesn't take a charge. It doesn't fire.
He hesitates.
no subject
While he's distracted, she kicks her foot up, cracking the toe of her boot under Kyrii's hand in order to knock the gun right put of it.
No more of that, now.
no subject
It clatters to the ground several yards away.
This isn't the first time he's been separated from his weapon. He makes a quick note of the direction it went. Not that it appears to be working properly anyway. But it still makes him uncomfortable to be without it.
He lunges toward her while her foot is coming down from the kick and her balance is still adjusting. His uninjured hand balls up. He plants his downward step and shifts his weight into the punch to her chest.
no subject
That alone is a stinging motivator. Her eyes widen as she grabs his wrist and twists it. Shifting to draw his arm behind his back.
Words aren't going to reach him. Violence else will have to do.
no subject
He struggles to reach with his hurt hand for the combat knife at the small of his back. He can't use his thumb properly or keep a strong grip because of the damage from the kick, but he pinches it into his palm the best he can with his fingertips. Though pulling to unsheathe it proves less than successful on his end.
His fingers slip off the handle as he's pulled further into the hold.
He's suddenly more careful now. He can't afford to break his good arm or he'll have little else to fight with.
no subject
That's fine. Rey can work with this.
With all the strength she has in her own good arm, she chucks Kyrii into the wall of the building he had obliterated earlier. The force alone might send the debris crashing around him, maybe slowing him a little more, given the condition that he's in.
She'd rather avoid having to snuff him, in the event that Hope doesn't make it. But she also can't die, either.
So she runs the other way. Find a weapon. Something non-lethal and can give this guy a good jolt.
no subject
When it seems to have all fallen over him, he begins pushing the chunks of rubble off of his body. But it takes too much time for his liking. He isn't able to move himself any faster with the one hand he's working with.
After several more long seconds, he's finally standing over the debris.
She's running. He carefully vaults over the broken wall and breaks into a hindered sprint after her.
no subject
Quick to stumble to a stop, she skids to the right, towards the remains of an unused shop that looks as though an explosion had taken out the entrance of it.
What would seem to be leading to herself to a corner is something else entirely. She digs through the shelves, finding a pile of wrapped up cloth in the back room.
no subject
He comes to a halt in front of the shop. Heaving to catch his breath, he draws the knife properly with his usable hand. The GBE far behind him now, he thinks.
By now Rey would have had plenty of time to gather herself in there. He has to proceed with caution.
The blade flips in hand with ease. He moves carefully through the entrance of the store.
no subject
Using the shelves of the shop for cover, she navigates the maze-like place for signs of Kyrii.
He's no novice, though. She knows this. Chances are he won't make himself so easily known.
no subject
It's possible she could have already run out some other exit, so he moves more naturally to sweep the area.
The knife staying firmly to his side, he quietly follows the most unobstructed path. It guides deeper into the labyrinth of the destroyed building until he reaches a smaller space clear of the rubble. It appears to be the origin of an explosion or previous fight.
But with no immediate sign of Rey.
no subject
Eventually, when Kyrii is close enough, Rey positions herself behind her cover. Gripping the weapon in her good hand, she slams her weight against the shelf. Sending it toppling over Kyrii on the other side.
The weight of it should be enough to pin him down. If only momentarily, so she can get a clean shot.
no subject
He glares up from the ground to her.
no subject
Rey gives him no such chance. Instead, she takes aim with the weapon, and fires a blast that's intended only to shake apart and kill intangible enemies.
For Kyrii, the goal isn't to kill but to simply stun him. Remembering what was said about the godkillers, she decides to put the idea that they are only intended to be lethal to the gods to the test.
Better than letting herself get killed for no reason.
She pulls the trigger. A blast of microwave energy bursts from the gun.
