Re: Tentacle Lair Escape: Overlord.
(A)
"Yes, i am sure Leon."
"Then i am sorry"
Leon walks over to his helmet and puts it on again.
"Code Yellow" Leon says
A gigantic pulse of energy is fired from the transport, its shockwave passes through the party, first leon, who is unaffected completely.
Xozz is the first to be effected by the shockwave, it immediately goes into idle mode, still active but unable to think for itself, its eyes go blue and it is able to be commanded by anyone.
The Pink adult tentacle falls over backwards completely unconscious.
All of the human party members recoil at the shockwave, holding their ears then struggling to find their legs as they collapse down on the sand.
Olivia reaches out to leon as the world around her spins, and gradually goes black, leon steps back away from her as she goes unconscious completely and falls down into the sand.
--
"Xozz, load them into the cargo hold, make sure no harm comes to the matriarch."
"Affirmative Master"
Xozz uses his mechanical claws to pick up and bring everyone inside of the cargo hold, once everyone is loaded up, he stands by the transport door as leon enters as well, putting the remaining pieces of his armor back on, the doors close behind him and the transport leaves the shore.

Olivia blinks to consciousness and looks around the room, she is held in place by several metal harnesses and a silver tiara around her head, which contains many different technologies used to suppress mind control, a quick look around the room indicates that you are inside of a large empty room with a door behind you, the walls are shiny and metallic double sided glass observation windows installed to your left which no doubt have several scientists watching from relative safety, the floor a dull grey and large lights on the ceiling beam down on you.
"Olivia Thompson, good morning, ive waited so long to meet you" a tall bald man with thick glasses walks and a lab coat walks towards you.
Olivia shakes off the last effects of the daze she had been under "Where am i"
"You are 100 feet deep into the earth inside a place known as 'The Compound', it is located on an island 20 miles out to sea and completely surrounded by steel from top to bottom, but i believe you know this already"
"Who are you?"
"My name is Richard Marrow, i am the lead researcher for the 'Tentacle' Division, a sector devoted to researching your kind"
"Why?" Olivia says to him testing the strength of her metal bonds as she does.
"I told my superiors that the reason i wanted to a research a tentacle beast was because we could learn its magical powers, that is only partly true you see."
Olivia laughs a him "Humans using magic, preposterous"
Morrow adjusts his glasses "I agree"
Olivia looks at him strangely
"The reason you are here isnt because i want to learn how to use magic, even if such a thing is possible, humans and magic would be a disaster, humans act out of emotion, the chaos it would create allowing humans to use magic would be potentially catastrophic"
"Then why am i here?"
"You are here to serve."
"If you think you can subjugate me, you will be dearly disappointed" Olivia grits her teeth
"We'll see Olivia" Morrow takes a notepad out of his chest pocket and produces a pen.
"I have some questions for you" Morrow flips open the notebook to a clean page.
"Where are my friends?"
"They are safe and some will be reunited with you soon in the habitat, although you'll be surprised to learn that a couple of them are better friends with me"
"What are you talking about?"
"Do you think it was a mistake finding that machine you call Xozz?"
"I found him on the beach...it was nearly dead." Olivia remembers
"Yes, you found it on the beach, where we planted it for a tentacle creature to find and bring along, the creature has a built in recording device we've found, we are studying it's time with you as we speak"
"You built Xozz?"
"Well no, our technology is more advanced that it appears, but not that advanced, since it makes no real difference now, ill tell you that Xozz is a legitimate working piece of thousand year old tentacle technology, and the stories he told you about tentacle overlords and their demonic creators are as far as we can tell, legitimate"
"Wha.....what do you want with me..really?" Olivia feels a bit of fear and uncertainty in her heart
"Ill say it again, you will serve, your powers are significant and we will grow them to untold levels through amplification you will use your mind control to influence the world and bring humanity under my control"
"Your control?"
"Yes, ill no longer need to beg the council for anything i desire, they shall simply give it to me willingly, all of humanity will be brought to order, my order, but we are getting ahead of ourselves arent we?"
"you are insane" Olivia replies to him
"Come now Olivia, if you were free and powerful enough, you would do the same, enslave humanity, crush all who oppose you, if you work with me, i will help you get revenge, i will wipe out the purple tentacles and the black tentacles and avenge lazuli"
Olivia simply looks at the ground, defeated, this man know everything about her, and will eventually know the powers she can potentially gain, Leon might have been right, she isn't prepared.
"First Question; you brought an adult pink tentacle with you, why?"
"I have an agreement with it's overlord to help against the purple tentacles, the creature was given to me as a token of good will"
"Ill make sure the creature is well taken care of, it can have your scraps if you wish"
Olivia shakes her head slightly in disgust as Morrow writes down what you told him in his notes
"Second Question; You have two women with you, according to our limited records, the one you call Laura is of significant importance, how so?"
"Laura has been a slave for a long time, she is a favorite among tentacle overlords and has been passed around for generations"
"Come on Olivia, why are you lying to me?"
Olivia signs deeply "She was the most powerful and important queen of our species who has hundreds of years of wisdom about our race and the respect of almost the entire species for her history within the 'great lair'.
"a great lair? interesting, ill have to discuss this with her later"
Olivia licks her lips, she is incredibly hungry
"We're almost finished, one last question"
Olivia nods slightly
"How do you view humanity as a tentacle overlord"
Olivia remembered what Lazuli told her about the humans before, it still resonated with her now. "Humanity is a necessity for our survival, we don't take great pride in holding them against their will, and try to release them when we are finished"
"And when exactly are you finished?"
"When the time comes, i guess we just know"
Morrow puts his notebook back into his coat-pocket and slides the pen back into his pants pocket.
"Hundreds, perhaps thousands of years into the future? when all of their family and friends are long gone? after their minds have been decimated by the effects of endless rape?"
"you hate us." Olivia says to him
"No, i admire your kind, given the chance, your race would take their rightful place at the top of the food chain and the world would likely be a better and more balanced place for it, the demon that Xozz speaks of was right, humanity will destroy itself and the world with it unless we are brought under control, and i will bring them under control and replicate that harmony."
"i am a monster Marrow, i know that, but do you?"
Morrow flashes Olivia a smile and snaps his fingers
"As a reward for your cooperation, ill allow you to choose a snack to feast on before we move you to the habitat, i want to see for myself up close just how your kind feeds"
