o25 ★ DON'T TRUST THE LAWN DECORATIONS

[electrowhipit]

[ This call is coming from the local garage, where Jolt has stopped to pick up supplies. ]

Those statues are not statues- I met someone who knows that they are, and what they can do- and they're dangerous.

They can only move when no one is looking at them, and they're fast. Don't take your eyes off them if you get near one, not even long enough to blink- but don't look into their eyes. They'll kill you if you do. They can also send people to any point in time just by touching them.

As far as I know, they can't be killed, but they can be immobilized if there are two of them facing each other.

Right now, April and I are working on getting chains so we can tie them up. Keep them from moving. It's not a permanent fix, but the less of those things that are free-roaming, the better.

How's everybody else doing? Is anybody missing in action?

[And here's April, sounding rather sheepish.] Ah, hope you don't mind, but someone is going to be tagging along with us...

[electrowhipit]

Hey, if they can hold their own, I'd be glad for the help.

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he can definitely hold his own. [He's basically like a human tank :D]

[electrowhipit]

Good. He's more than welcome to come.

I found some chains at the garage. How are you with steel rods or pipes? We could use those too if we had to.

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

[There's a moment of silence as she thinks.] Yeah, I've got a few of those here!

[Guess who's MIA. Not!Wife is missing]

[electrowhipit]

[ YEAH, he noticed. He's a little worried, but he's got the hyenas looking after the house and the kids ): ]

[Bud and Lou will do what they're told and guard the house.]

[electrowhipit]

[ Good doggies. Things. Right. ]

... They do who what where now?

[electrowhipit]

Those statues around town? The ones of humans with wings. They kill people, Sideswipe.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

They... what? How do you know that?

[electrowhipit]

I sort of... ran into someone screaming about it being on their porch. April had one almost attack her, too.

[weaponsparked.livejournal.com]

... Where are you? I'm not leaving you out alone to be attacked.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Have you tried smashing the statues?"

[electrowhipit]

... I don't really have the means, but I was told they couldn't be killed. I assume that covers smashing.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"No, but if they don't have legs, it should be much harder to chase people down. Or what about putting a mirror in front of one?"

[electrowhipit]

... A mirror? I hadn't thought of that.

[answers at school]

A large number of my students are missing, and a few were behaving oddly. Not droned-oddly, but- something was wrong. Something I couldn't put my finger on.

[electrowhipit]

Like what? How were they acting?

[alexanderofny.livejournal.com]

Stiff. Strange...

[electrowhipit]

Do you think the statues got to them somehow? I mean, I know you die when you look into their eyes, but I don't know how you die.

[mansfirsttrap.livejournal.com]

But is it possible to permanently immobilize them by destroying their statue form? I had never heard of such a stealthy hunter before even during my first life... so any more information about them in order to retaliate would be welcome to hear. I had regained my strength to be able to lift and crush things easily that would rival a demigod, so I would hope I could at least accomplish that much on regarding to destroying them while they are stone.

And I may be able to ask my brother to return my chain of heaven to me for assistance. Granted it works more effectively against divine beings, but bound by chain is still bound by chain.

[electrowhipit]

I really don't know. I mean, they could follow Mayfield's rules and just revive the next day.

And we're going to try the chain thing. I don't know if it'll work or not.

[mansfirsttrap.livejournal.com]

It will be a day longer for us not to deal with them then, but you do raise a good point. Perhaps we are to find exactly where they would 'revive' at and have a good number of people watch guard in that location.

And as for the chains, we wouldn't know unless it is tried. The sooner that we find out, the more better the results would be.
