Voodoo Buwan: If the popular song is to be believed, "Saturday night's alright for fighting". So, seeing as we had nothing better to do, the Trinstar and I decided to go exploring the more dangerous streets of SL, to see what trouble we could get ourselves into

Trinity Dechou: Ohhh that mean your Elton john and I'm Anastasia?

Voodoo Buwan: Aaaaaaanyway, we got ourselves armed to the teeth (which is funny, cos although Trin has battle experience, I can't fight for toffee)

Trinity Dechou: I have battle experience, most of it in rl though.....

Voodoo Buwan: And off we headed to some SL's dark role-play areas

Trinity Dechou: To see what crazy madness we could create

Voodoo Buwan: First stop was Toxia, where supernatural, robotic and weird creatures gather to rumble

Trinity Dechou: Yes in dark streets with fiery barrels, mortals and humans gather together in general hanging out-ness, like all the cool kids do these days. In a show of who has the biggest gun or sword usually action is never too far away and looking suitably cool we wandered among them. Voo in his usual pushing things to the limits spotted a couple standing near each other.

Voodoo Buwan: Seeing as folks are generally there to show how mean they are, so I spotted the person with he biggest weapon, and decided how long it would take to get them angry with me. I started walking through the middle of their conversation, back and forth, to see how many times it would take for them to react

Trinity Dechou: And a few times lagging and belting them with his girly shield

Voodoo Buwan: I was surprised it took a whole 6 times of walking between them, and bumping them around, before they actually told me to sod off... I guess the inhabitants are more civil than they let on

Trinity Dechou: Meanwhile in usual trinity in a trenchcoat style, I was being challenged to a dual by a cool looking transformer. Off we shot to the roof, he was to take me on then my good friend voo. Guns at the ready, drawn, loaded and aimed we prepared to fight, as voo tp'ed into the middle of us.....

Voodoo Buwan: I resisted the urge to shout, "leave him, he's not worth it!

Trinity Dechou: Once voodoo cleared the path it was down to some girl on guy shooting action. I did ok readers, got some hits in, but the lag took its toll on me and I ended in a bloody heap on the floor meanwhile my supposed protector stood there. It was now his turn....

Voodoo Buwan: The fight started, and I promptly crashed

Trinity Dechou: I would have risen again to take it on, but I was seriously dead on the deck so I apologised for my worthy friend and we awaited his return

Voodoo Buwan: I got back, ready and waiting to have my butt kicked, in a battle using very pretty electric shock staffs

Trinity Dechou: Yes cause that's what matters if it's pretty, never mind a broken neck

Voodoo Buwan: Damn right. However, my fight was short and sweet, and at the end, there I lay on the floor, and despite lots of blind thrashing, had not laid a single blow on my opponent. Told you Trin was the scrapper on the team

Trinity Dechou: Aye

Voodoo Buwan: We hung around to see how it was done, as another contender stepped up to fight Neon, our sparring partner

Trinity Dechou: I took great delight to see that contender was beaten as well, like myself (Voo doesn't count, his hair wasn't straight or something, god knows)

Voodoo Buwan: If you're gonna get beaten, good to get beaten by the best

Trinity Dechou: Or get beaten to a pulp and u don't remember?

Voodoo Buwan: Indeed. We then decided to move on, and headed to the cyberpunk city of Midian, to see what trouble we could find there

Trinity Dechou: Mmmm we were on a high from our achievements in toxia. Midian was harder work though, such a gorgeous place but rather laggy

Voodoo Buwan: Now whereas Toxia has emphasis on the combat, midian is much more about role-play and while we heard stories of corrupt cops beating down on the locals, and soap opera vampire dramas, we didn't actually find any fights going down

Trinity Dechou: No we didn't but tbh it didn't matter, we were surrounded by sheer beauty

Voodoo Buwan: Despite Trin trying to pick a fight with a passing policeman

Trinity Dechou: Obviously I was too scary for him and he ran away

Voodoo Buwan: So, we explored, soaking up the glorious grimy neon scenery, had a drink at the moloko bar, and decided to move on once more....

Trinity Dechou: Mmm but where too now? We had had violence in toxia, gorgeous grime in midian…

Voodoo Buwan: Well, when you think of mean streets in SL, there's one name that stands above the rest: The Crack Den. A wretched hive of scum and villainy if ever there was one

Trinity Dechou: I had never properly been to The CrackDen, I had read about it in an article that voo did a while back. Sooo when he suggested it I was like ooooOOOoo yes

Voodoo Buwan: When we arrived, in the welcome area we spotted a girl with a bloody chainsaw almost as big as she was, and I knew this was the right place for trouble

We stepped out onto the street, and a man called Boots barged his way past us, so we decided to tail him

Trinity Dechou: Yes I mean how bloody rude, I am after all a lady

Voodoo Buwan: He met up with two other women, on a dirty street corner, and we discreetly followed them back to a decrepit building known for human trafficking

Trinity Dechou: Discreetly? we wandered along behind them, I stopped every now and again to cam in. the huge voodoo stomped along merrily behind them, with stealth and sheer determination

Voodoo Buwan: They didn't spot me til I was outside

Trinity Dechou: We decided the best way to approach would be to take them by surprise

Voodoo Buwan: While the woman standing guard challenged me as I was lurking out back, while Trin charged the front

Trinity Dechou: I walked in, past the couple doing 'things' and straight out the back

next to the security woman that voo had. We proceeded to stand and talk about the architecture of the building

Voodoo Buwan: Inside, our man was getting hot and heavy with a girl who was gagged, and wanted to get away. However, we had a problem: we couldn't fight here as we weren't part of the group.

Trinity Dechou: But we must help the poor girl stuck inside back against the wall

while talking about the building designs we moved back inside pushing the security guard along for the ride

Voodoo Buwan: So we did what we do best

Trinity Dechou: Yeah we stood round and talked about utter rubbish. For some reason it put boots off his work, although we have no idea why.

Voodoo Buwan: Such is the power of our wit and verbosity

Trinity Dechou: When that didn't seem to be working fast enough we moved in closer, and talked, talked and hovered. soon poor boots was beside himself, weak and unable to keep anything going. he tp'ed away

Voodoo Buwan: And the young girl was able to make her escape

Trinity Dechou: One problem though, our little friendly (not so friendly) security guard was there still. "ohhhh hell... vooo run!!"

Voodoo Buwan: One quick scarper later, and we consoled ourselves with the fact that the hilarious comment is truly mightier than the sword :)

Trinity Dechou: Yes, we has an eventful night: we got into a fight and lost, enjoyed lovely building at its best grungy style and stopped human trafficking. Really we are THAT good.

Voodoo Buwan: Just another night on SL's Wild Side

Trinity Dechou: Voodoo.....

Voodoo Buwan: Mhmm?

Trinity Dechou: Security woman's back, c'mon RUN!!!!!!!!!!!

Voodoo Buwan: LEG IT!
