Thread: THP: The Dividing Line (Start-Up)

"Great the phone is possessed," Ace said annoyed.

"GetmesomematerialsIneedsomematerialsnowgogetmesomestat!" Chiara started spouting out words faster than anyone on the planet.

The mist began to swirl ominously, growing ever thicker by the moment.

"Possess nothing. Posess everything. Difference? No, there is none. What is life? What is truth? Unimportant, what really matters is the identity of aubergines. *crsshk* Aubergines. *crsshk* Aubergines." The mist froze for a second before resuming movement and opening up with another blast of insight.

"Palindrome."

Ace watched the scene with boredom.

Jet and Gregor ran at full speed to get materials while Opal and Lynn moved at a quick but calm pace. The four brought back many materials to be used.

The mist suddenly collapsed and began twitching like crazy, forming a data vortex that suddenly vanished with a flash. And there, stood where there was none before was a man. A man prone to bursts of static and his irises making dancing infinities along his hexagonal eyes. A man whose head was peacefully rotating on his neck. "Hello! Hello! Hello!" the strange creature said, reaching out to shake Ace's hand, and detaching his arm from his shoulder to do so. "I am... I am... I am... ERROR." Then his face imploded, pretty much all of his facial features inverting in an utterly impossible manner for a few seconds before snapping back.

Chiara grabbed the materials and began rapidly sewing them together. "I need more!"

"R-right!" Jet and Gregor said running to get more.

"Come with me," Ace said to the new merge ignoring the hand and walking outside. Upon seeing the new Infinity Ace covered his eyes. "I came out here to say there's another merge here but I see this instead. Why is there a giant naked female merge out here?"

Lynn smiled as Ace covered his eyes glad he wasn't the kind to look. She then went with Opal to get more materials.

Infinity blushed slightly. "Not my fault... Well, maybe it was."

The new merge attempted to move forward, but his leg went through the ceiling. He tried with his other leg which immediately began spinning around wildly. Eventually, he just gave up and moved forward, a torso and head orbited by four detatched flailing limbs. "Physics is nice. I wish I had physics." he said to no one in particular, his first ever lucid comment heard by no-one.

A minute or so later and his left leg marched out of the door, followed by his right arm, followed by his head, which look around completely obliviously as the rest of his body caught up. "Legs arms legs arms legs arms where am I?" he asked, arms and legs teleporting and flickering around the place as he tried to keep himself together in every sense of the word.

"Anyways this guy just came out of the phone and how did Infinity end up so giant?" Ace said not uncovering his eyes.

The other four came back out with more material.

Laura flew outside and saw the giant merge. Infinity looked even bigger to her, since she was so small. She squeaked in terror before looking around at the others there. Chiara was sewing. Was she trying to make... clothes? Okay, this was just weird. Laura then saw the man whose body parts were floating around all over the place.
"He came out of the PHONE? I thought only signals came through phones! Is he a merge with a radio wave?!" She wouldn't be surprised if he was, but she honestly doubted it, of course.

"Hard to explain. I'm scared inside, really."

"ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR. RORRE." He suddenly destabilised, vectors randomly spiking out as he did so. After a few seconds he calmed down somehow seeming a little more solid than before, and turned his gaze towards the tiny merge. "Wave? No surfboard. I am data, are you data?"

"You're bigger than any merge ever and you're scared? You should be really brave, well at least as soon as you get clothes on."

"He seems to be a porygon merge," Opal said to Laura.

"That's why I'm scared! What am I going to do now..?"
