Fith Cell ♊ Video ♊ Backdated to Friday

[whitebrother]

[The video comes on to show a view of an overcast night sky, the clouds dyed red from the flames raging all around. The camera sways, turns over, shows hands and arms of a man. The "camera" was clearly showing someone's eye-view. Another nightmare-memory broadcast to the network as punishment for fighting back.

The man gets to his feet shakily, but stays standing. He walks to the top of a hill, and stares down the other side into a crater. At the center of the crater lies the wreckage of a massive machine. It had a humanoid torso, but in place of legs it was connected to a spider-like body with crab-like claws. He simply stood there and stared at it for a long moment.

Then the metal monstrosity twitched. The only warning before it somehow reared itself up, towering over him. In a flash it regenerated, damaged frame and missing armor repairing in a instant. Green eyes flashed a terrible red as the process finished. The man gasped and stepped backwards in surprise. But he had no time to react farther, because the monster's chest opened, sending out green cables. He had no time to run. He brought up his arms in a futile attempt to protect himself, but the cables grabbed both of his arms and pried them our to the side. Another cable had snaked over and wrapped around his waste, and with a scream -- Kyoji's voice -- he was pulled inside before the hatch slammed shut, sealing him in darkness.]

((ooc: this nightmare will be triggering a temporary insanity in Kyoji, a state that was forced upon him by being absorbed by the machine in this memory. Because of this, responses will come from corrupted_brother. He will also still be feeling the affects of the drugs which triggered the memory.))
