EVENT HORIZON - DAY THREE

[inferis]

[Well, things sure aren't fun for you guys right now, are they? And to make matters worse, some of you have become completely corrupted by the ship, and you've got some crazy new ideas in your heads.

Anyone not corrupted isn't doing that hot either. Not only do you have to deal with your new crazy-face buddies, but you have to deal with your own terrible hallucinations coming at you when you least expect them, and they want you to do terrible, awful things]

[Oh, that was the wrong thing to say. But Muraki doesn't even appear angry. He pulls the knife out and drops it back into his pocket]

Actually...

[He reaches up to grab Danny's lower arm] ...Yes

[And suddenly he strikes, using the wall and his hand as leverage, his other hand slams hard against the bone of the arm where it was weakest, snapping it with a sickening crack. It was sure to be a jagged break too. Painful.]

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny screams. Even with all of his experience fighting as a ghost, he had never felt anything even close to this before. It was worse than being electrocuted, worse than being hit by ectoblasts or slammed into buildings. All he can feel and think about is the pain.]

[madetosin]

[For a moment he only laughed, amused as much by the lack of retort and the pain itself. He gripped the arm with one hand and squeezed slightly]

Now, tell me what I want to know, boy, and you'll get to keep this bone inside your arm. What do you mean by part ghost?

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny pales as the grip on his broken arm pushes him to the edge of unconsciousness. For a few seconds he gasps for air without being to say anything. At last he hoarsely mutters a few words, like each one was being dragged from his mouth. Literally, as his loss forces him to tell the truth.]

N-not part. Half. Something in between human and ghost.

[madetosin]

[He doesn't quite let go, but loosens his grip quite a bit, having made what he believes is his point and not the application of some other magic. His other hand lightly cups Danny's jaw]

How? What are you? Shinigami? Something else?

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny tries to twist his face away.]

I don't know, okay! They call me a halfa.

[madetosin]

Both descriptive and completely unhelpful. [He releases his grip on the arm and grips Danny by the hair instead, twisting his face forward again.]

And look at people when they speak to you...

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny glares at him with everything he has left. It makes for a rather pathetic display, considering he is only conscious through sheer stubbornness by this point.]

Like you're giving me a choice.

And what I am is none of your business!

[madetosin]

[He grins, though it's an expression more of malice than actual glee]

I suppose it isn't. We will all be changed once the gateway opens.

[schrodingersghost]

That is not going to happen! [Danny had no clue how to stop it, but he refused to believe that this ship would win.]

[madetosin]

And what are you going to stop it?

[schrodingersghost]

I don't know! Something! And even if I can't get out of here someone else will stop it!
