Good lord, that poor guard. He is probably all - "Uh...what about the um, still gasping dead guard at my feet? Wouldn't he sort of draw attention to...No, no its cool, I'll just sit him in this bench over here, and umm throw a tapestry over him, no problem."

Im presuming there is a special detactment that deal with... umm loose ends and refuse?

Jules and Vincent here, really need Mr. Wolf right about now!

actually he expired at the end of the page if that wasnt clear .. and yes The Church of genetic purity will be by to pick his body up and strip it down for parts .. Kali was very selective in her strike. :D

I like to imagine them pulling up in a little golf cart with a stack of body bags under the front seat, personally.

I see priests ringing a gong as they walk the halls; "Bring out your dead! Bring out your dead!"

"Oh!! Oh! I have a dead guard here!"

"I...gak...not...dead...yet..."

"Do you want me to call Kali back?"

"NO!.. umm never mind. Im dead. Carry on!"

Chilling scene. Kali is quite the motivator, as long as you're not also her object lesson.

As for disposing of the remains, I think it was one of William Gibson's characters in *Count Zero* that said: "Body banks are great for getting *rid* of things."

she might appreciate a dying thumbs up, or a "very satisfying Thump when they hit the ground".

she would proably be amused ...

KarToon12 9th Nov 2012, 12:36 PM edit delete reply

Funny how she was initially perceived as the bad guy, but now she's helping the girls.

I'm sensing a common theme in this comic; no one is as they appear to be, or have some other secret agenda they're up to.

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 12:49 PM edit delete reply

ding ding! give this girl a medal , the main point here is that everyone has shades of grey. just like real life.

Hornet 9th Nov 2012, 2:51 PM edit delete reply

He's still making noise so not dead yet. Why do I have the feeling she gave that speach while standing on the guys throat, in stilettos?

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 2:55 PM edit delete reply

Oh hes quite dead note the " ... * ".. but yes she was standing on his neck. to keep him quiet while he gurgled to death on his own blood. guess we werent too clear about his death.

I could have spent another 2 pages of her showing off , but it was decided to move the story forward instead.

Watist 9th Nov 2012, 6:50 PM edit delete reply

Shattered windpipes don't usually bleed in fact she doesn't even need to stand on him. He should slowly quietly strangle to death because he can't breath enough; if she hit him right, which she would given how vindictive she was feeling at the time.

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 7:47 PM edit delete reply

yep - we were going to show her holding him down , but decided against it the move was suggested by a Ex Marine :D the trick was to make him "suffer" but remain quiet and eniffectual.

Hornet 9th Nov 2012, 9:33 PM edit delete reply

This is the page that exemplifies the saying. Death is easy it's the act of dieing that's hard.

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 9:01 PM edit delete reply

She actually enjoys. playing games. and figuring out what people are going to do. meditation is another of her favorites.

Rashala 9th Nov 2012, 10:24 PM edit delete reply

okay silly q, uh does deci ever...well use her like peopel use minx?

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 10:40 PM edit delete reply

Kali: I think rose covered this part. and secondly I dont think hes intrested in someone that doesnt bleed. scream and whimper .. so no.

Dragonrider 9th Nov 2012, 9:31 PM edit delete reply

Just wondering if Kali would take it upon herself to facilitate and regime change at this time. Earlier I mentioned a resistance movement after Kali's soliloquies the past couple or three pages and her thoughts about who to speak with at this time one might posit She and Maximus are the founders, leaders and coordinators of this resistance. With the Doctor being the intermediary between them and the rank and file. FWIW I still advise the Guard to vacate Nova Roma as soon as he is off duty and pray to whatever Deity he worships that Princey-Poo does not make another move tonight. I guarantee he, the guard, won't be alive in the morning if that happens. *Maintenance Clean-up on aisle 2 bring body bags,blood remover and Industrial Strength Air Freshener.*

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 10:39 PM edit delete reply

Kali: You see this is why it is so kind of the Guards to wear fully enclosed armor .. keeps the stink all in a nice tidy package.

As for the first part.. The Authors have no wish for me to deliver "spoilers" so wait and see...

Dragonrider 10th Nov 2012, 1:48 PM edit delete reply

@Kali just speculating out loud ma'am, my wee Dragonetts have been busy sifting through some of the cached audio files that Aeneas doesn't realize he has, however might I be so bold as to suggest that Setorius's confidential and hidden files on the Royal Family, Princey-Poo especially might well be of interest to you.

Centcomm 10th Nov 2012, 3:38 PM edit delete reply

Kali: what makes you think I dont already have those files.. Trust me , I know where ALL the bodies are buryed .. most of them "I" put there.

Dragonrider 10th Nov 2012, 4:18 PM edit delete reply

Bit of an overstatement I daresay from what I have been reading Maximus has burried his share as has, in the name of "science only of course, Setorius I would estimate his count to match or even exceed yours, his blood lust is for "research" only but he is dedicated to his research.

Centcomm 10th Nov 2012, 5:19 PM edit delete reply

Kali: General Maxus has done most of his killing in the arena. and has a very high level of "honor" this is why I handle "wet-works".
As for the Archpriest, he does nothing with malice so bloodlust is a bit of a reach.

In closing no. I hold the highest "body count"

Dragonrider 10th Nov 2012, 5:39 PM edit delete reply

Ah yes ma'am

They Pissed off Tedee and she is coming for them!

The Sister, Marcus also the Doc and her slave. Centcomm may also find Kali's personality useful.

Centcomm 9th Nov 2012, 11:53 PM edit delete reply

Are you perhaps thinking of Maxus? Marcus is with New Troy - I wouldnt think TeeDee would off him :D

The doc, maxus, The slave . And Acantha. I don't count lynna s nova romaian s she is a hostage

Just remember there are a lot of Innocent people in Nova Roma :D its a living City just like New Troy and not all the population may agree with the Princes methodology..

well as much as TeeDee would like to nuke the place and run .. shes probably going to have to settle for whoever gets in the way as Cent-Comms orders spicificly forbade "scorched-earth" tactics.. XD

..*takes Tedee aside and teaches her a Ancient technique Pointing to somm TN Soldier extras lounging to one side not a threat and shouts" OH CRAP THEY ARE COMING RIGHT AT US* And with TD Hoses them down with Blazing Electric death*

Now Just repeat taht phrase everytime beforee you open fire and you are totally in compliance with Centys orders AND get to Burn TN to the ground!!!

Typical frickin Marine can't take 'em anywhere close to civilization a or other life forms. When you absolutely, positively gotta have an international incident sent in the Marines. If you want the job done nice, neatly with minimum collateral damage with total stealth and deniablity send in one Army SOG Team.

Agreed, Dragonrider. The Misguided Children are a one-trick pony, IMO: full frontal assault. Pit them against guerilla/insurgent hit-and-run and the army has to go in to pull their bacon out of the fire.

And before anyone tries to start flaming me for this view: see Fallujah. My last deployment, the army had to go in and straighten things out at *least* 2-3 times during that year. And those are just the times I heard about (which, I actively tried to avoid hearing about how things were going, and just focused on keeping the internet working).

Kali : Actually TeeDee *IS* in a combat body.. the model type is "sprite" the combat package is "Striker" she just doesnt like the bio-plastic covering.

As for who would win? that depends on what shes armed with .. and how far away.
Im her superior in hand to hand. but she prefers high powered weapons.
