Omegasplit [Act 2: on hiatus]

>PAST ZANE: Fail to make sense of where you are.

Okay, that's pretty easy. You still haven't got any clue what this place, or why it might look like it's been ravaged recently. It is a complete and total mystery to you.

>FUTURE PAST ZANE: Explain everything to PRESENT PAST ZANE.

You attempt to jump to FUTURE PAST ZANE, but failing to specify a time, you encounter him at a point in time where he is busy dealing with some sort of looming threat. He is too busy saving his own skin to accede to your request, even if he WAS willing to deal with time travel to do it.

>PAST ZANE: Think for a bit.

You return to being a version of Zane who isn't otherwise preoccupied with mysterious adversaries. You stop to think a bit... All you can really puzzle out is that things are sort of eerily quite and you can't figure out why... Also, your head seems to be hurting less now than it was before. You wonder why it's gone down so quick.

>PAST ZANE: Succeed at making sense of where you are.

Nope. You still haven't got a clue. Examining your environs has not given you the precious insight required to discern your whereabouts.

>PAST ZANE: Stealthily explore city.

You slowly float out the window and try to move about stealthily. You... aren't really certain if you can. Even if these awesome yellow pajamas blend in well with the less damaged buildings,the bright light coming from that massive... you don't want to call it a Sun, since it really just looks like a giant sky plopped smack dab in the middle of the blackness that you assume is the actual "sky", or what passes for one here.

Yeah, you're really confused still, so you decide to set about trying to explore the city.

===> (x however many empty panels would, in a more detailed medium, be used to show Zane slowly floating through the broken streets of Prospit)

You wander about the golden city for however long, and you begin to get incredibly lost. You have no idea what's going on here. At all. You also failed in the stealth department, because as soon as any of the white, shiny carapaced people saw you anywhere they would gasp and begin to clamor with each other. Despite your best efforts to stay hidden, you still have a small entourage where ever you go. None of them seem inclined to leave their buildings though, you can't figure out why.

...

Actually, that big blue thing in the sky seems to be getting uncomfortably close. Is it going to slam into the city? No, that can't be it, everyone'd be a lot more panicked if something THAT BIG were about to slam into the city, wouldn't they?

>PAST ZANE: Put some graffiti on the town hall.

Aside from that seeming incredibly disrespectful to you, you don't know where such a building would be! Every time you think you've arrived at the grandest building in the city, you see a larger and grander one off in the distance! And that's not even dealing with the nagging suspicion you're beginning to have that the entire place is just one massive building, with all of the little ones out here little more than decorative outcroppings.

>PAST ZANE: Discover "threat" civilians are hiding from.

Wait, what? How would you do that? You've already stated that you're completely clueless.

>ECLIPSE: Begin.

As the Moon of Prospit swings about in its orbit, attached by its mighty chain to the golden city proper, one of the heroes assigned to the care of the alabaster monarchs stares up into the great gaze of Skaia, without solid stone and metal around him, he will be at the full mercy of the powerful visions and forces at play. He will be completely vulnerable to any nefarious forces that may wish him harm.

>{S}

Zane immediately finds himself pelted by a variety visions of the potentially prophetic kind. He watches a number of events unfold before him, the full extent of which can't really be put together here, as it would be difficult to detail what would be in the Flash proper, however, I shall describe a few of the more important bits and pieces.

Zane sees scatterings of different events, he sees a coup and a black figure rising up from the ash of a burning kingdom, he sees a grand chessboard and a game interrupted, he sees a tall, pale couple without features on their faces, jumping from places to place in flashes of red and green. He sees himself laid bare on the ground, dead. He sees flashes of burning clouds and raining meteors, he sees a desolate wasteland...

He sees himself in a room, playing games with Erin, with a slow pan outwards, as fiery death approaches the great pillar that the two are currently in. He sees a cataclysmic destroyer chasing a figure in red through a massive world of darkness devoid of anything but the writhing tentacles of the horror terrors. He sees two circles of great lights, a large circle of green dots, a smaller one of red lights, and in the center, a great blue glow. He sees a cackling figure shrouded in darkness and purple lightning. He sees the beginnings of SOMETHING BAD. He sees... a friend. Not Erin though... Coming closer, wearing the same garb as hi-

Zane suddenly finds himself waking back up on the floor of his own room.

What just happened?

Past Zane: write down visions

PAST ZANE : speak to chums to tell them you have a headache


PAST ZANE : COLLAPSE

PAST ZANE: think of calming thoughts, like the sound of the ocean's waves.

ZANE : wait for headache to blow over

ZANE : be ERIN

ZANE: Check on game, it's probably done lading.
ZANE: Be Erin.

>Past Erin: Examine surroundings

>Past Erin: Reset Breakers

> ERIN: Locate a BATTERY-POWERED COMPUTER.

>PAST Erin: First, be the Wheatley, Second, fetch Companion Cube

>PAST Erin: Be Past Cassie

>PAST Mason: REVEAL NOTHING!

>PAST Erin: Resume Conversation And SBURB On

Apologies for not forwarding the plot any today, I am not feeling particularly well, and am waiting until tomorrow to do PA's commands or any others that lead directly forwards in the plot. So instead we're going with the commands I could think of ways to turn into needlessly pointless antics. (sorry RW)

---

>PAST ERIN: First, be the Wheatley, Second, fetch Companion Cube.

You cannot be WHEATLEY as you are not a MORON. But you decaptchalogue your COMPANION CUBE plush anyways.

>PAST MASON: REVEAL NOTHING!

PAST MASON is too busy finishing up an essay for school in his downtime to respond to you! Man, being in the AP Program sure is hard work...
Wait, crap! He wasn't supposed to reveal anything!
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

>PAST ERIN: Be Past Cassie.

You cannot be PAST CASSIE because PAST CASSIE is at present trying to dissuade her father from rearranging the furniture at the frantic pace he is currently doing so. He does this when he gets agitated and it always makes it difficult to focus, as such you are having too much difficulty with focusing to not be Erin.

PAST ZANE : Recover from HEADACHE


phantasmicAnomaly:Repeat previously entered commands
