Narumi followed Hahli to the portal. He landed flat on his face, as he got up, he rubbed his eyes with his hands, but then he looked at them. They were a tinge of green, and there was a red line on one of his hands. He then looked at his suit, it was particularly red, unbeknowest to him, the area where it was blood red was his back, with what looked bullet holes on the suit. He then noticed his face in a puddle, he looked like a corpse. He then looked up and saw hundreds of monsters. "So many Dopants..." Narumi said. He then got up and put on the Lost Driver. "So little time." Narumi said, noting how fast the last challenge was. He then got out his Skull Memory.
SKULL!
"Henshin." Narumi said as he placed the Skull Memory into the driver and activated it.
SKULL!
Narumi transformed into Kamen Rider Skull. "Now, who's crimes to count first?" Narumi muttered.

"Of course, Satsuki-sama."
Gordon caught sight of Narumi a little ways off.
"Hey!" he called, noticing the man pulling his weapons out and going through his Transformation Sequence. He activated his sprint and ran for him.
"Look at them before you start attacking. They're chatting, laughing. Not everybody's one of those dopa-things," Gordon said. "Just get your bearings before you start shooting, we don't even know what this challenge is about yet."
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."
-Eddie entered the portal-
"Hey, I've seen this movie! This place is pretty metal. A bit Doom-y though."
-he notices that he is in his demonic form-
"Well, when in Rome..."
Ravage found himself in a bizarre place of impossible angles, insane architecture and ludicrous, chaotic-looking organics. The jaguar snarled in agravation and raised a paw to cradle the massive processor-ache he could feel coming on.
He paused, however, when he saw to his horror that the metallic parts of his body had been replaced with hairless, mouldering flesh. Fighting back the urge to cry out in disgust, the jaguar saw that little maggots apeared to be crawling about on and within his new flesh, and he raked a claw across to rid himself of the nauseating parasites. He frowned, however, when his talons met no such insects and felt only metal.
...Okay, what the Pit was this?
Spotting what he assumed was Hahli, the Decepticon padded over to her, grimacing as he caught sight of his appearance in the water. Whatever laws governed this place had transmogrified him into an undead panther of some sort—or at least had crafted the illusion that it was so—and it disturbed him greatly.
"Let's find the objective this challenge and solve it," he snarled. "I want this over and done with so that I don't have to look at this hideous mockery of myself."

Hahli, perched on the rooftop of a rickety-looking house, was still in paroxysms of fear and confusion. I'm dead, she thought to herself. I'm back in another part of Karzahni, and any minute he's going to try and 'fix' me... She looked at her new body, puzzling this over ...unless he already has... Realizing that sitting down in that nightmare realm meant petrification, she immediately sprang to her feet and hopped up and down, trying to avoid eternity as a statue.

Narumi turns to see Gordon. "Well, Gorodan, villains chat and laugh too. But if you insist." Narumi said, reverting back to his human form.

Seeing Ravage below her, the Toa clambered down, still shaking.
"I'm dead," was all she said, her tone flat and morose.

the jaguar growled in irritation and smacked her across the mask with the flat of his tail—which, he just discovered, had been replaced by what appeared to be the twin blades of a bloodstained battleaxe. Well, that had the potential to get nasty...
"You aren't dead," he snarled, his eyes darting about at the chaotic scene. "This is a hallucination brought on by energon poisoned by Angolmois! "

"Of course, Satsuki-sama."
"I'm just saying, they haven't even tried to attack us yet," Gordon replied. "Plus, I've honestly seen a lot scarier. These guys just look like Halloween..."
Gordon paused, then looked around the area. No way. No way this is what I think it is.
"Halloween decorations..."

"This surely is another part of Karzahni," said Hahli. "The place where disobedient Matoran go to die... what have I done to come back to this place?"

"Relax, none of us are dead. We're just... blending in with the locals."

"Don't you see?!" said Hahli, still being careful not to stay too long in one spot, "Karzahni's already fixed you to look like that! Don't any of you remember that happening to you?"

Jorge had stayed silent as he stepped through the portal. He materialized in a dark alley, falling face down on the ground. The Spartan groaned as he stood up, shaking his head. He'd never get used to these portals.
Then Jorge examined his arm. "...The hell?" The armor was heavily cracked, and the color was faded. Checking himself, he found that the rest of his armor also seemed to be heavily damaged, yet, oddly enough, his helmet's HUD indicated that it was fine, including his shields.
The HUD had also changed. It seemed to have a more...gothic look to it. Jorge blinked, then he peeked out of the alley to see his surroundings and the city's denizens.
"...You've gotta be shitting me."

"Of course, Satsuki-sama."
Gordan noticed a rooftop, were Hahli and a few others were. Hahli was panicing, by the looks of things.
"Hahli! Eddie!" he called. "Down here!"
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

By this point, Hahli was inconsolable and had launched into hysterics, drawing the attention of a few witches and a talking tree down below.
"Volcanoes that spew burning ice and rivers of liquid sand! Eternal agony for all who dwell inside! Working until your very armor crumbles to dust!"

Roach was tossed from the portal. He rolled along the cobbled street a few times, then whacked into something with a rather sickening thud.
"Ow."
He stood up, and took stock of his surroundings. And how he'd changed.
The first thing he noticed was that he was wearing a black and grey version of his normal outfit. His guns seemed to be covered in dust, and the fingers of his gloves tapered into clawed points; the skin he could see between them and his jacket was ash-pale. There seemed to be a pair of folded bat-wings on his back, and he could feel that his teeth had changed shape. His hair was messed-up and visibly faded from the vibrant red it had been before.

"Yup. That tasted purple."
"This is not 'Carzany'," Ravage snapped, wishing that he could transform to robot mode and shake some sense into the hysterical femmebot. Instead he settled for rearing up on his hind legs and pinning her to a wall.
"And it isn't the Pit either; if it was, I'd be screaming for mercy as my body was melted down in a giant smelter manned by the laughing, misshapen minions of Unicron."
The Decepticon fixed his red optics on Hahli's eyes. "Since I don't see that happening, it's pretty clear we haven't died yet."

"Of course, Satsuki-sama."
Gordon frowned. He didn't see any of that around here.
A tree, with dozens of small skeletons hanging off of its branches, sidled past him, nearly bowling the physicist over. Several witches flew over his head, towards the roof.

-Eddie flew to join Gordon-
"You don't think we're dead, do you? 'Cause we're not. We're just adapting to the environment..."

"Whatever it is," said Hahli, her voice trembling, "I will find a way out of here... and it can't kill me, since I'm already dead."
Formerly known as Crow T. Robot.Jorge saw his M247H set against the wall. However, it also appeared to be heavily damaged, and there was a skull engraved into the ammo box.
"Halloween, eh? Boy, this should be fun," He said to himself. After stepping out of the alley, he heard Gordon's voice. Spotting the scientist nearby, the Spartan jogged up to him.
"Doctor Freeman, there you are. Where is everywhaaaat the hell?!"

"Of course, Satsuki-sama."
"Dead? No. I've seen this movie," replied Gordon. "We're just trick-or-treating, so to speak."
When Jorge, who was wearing a wrecked version of his regular armor, approaching him and had the natural reaction to Gordan's new headgear, the physicist sighed.
"I freaked out when I found it too. Luckily, it's stuffed. I think."
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."
"For the last time, you aren't dead!!!" Ravage bellowed in Hahli's face. "You see the rotting flesh and the maggots?! They aren't real!"

Gordon hit the ground. His H.E.V suit protested, mentioning how it detected minor damage to his legs.
He didn't feel the aforementioned damage, so he stood up, and looked down.
Gordon's H.E.V suit was covered in blood. He didn't think he killed anything in the portal. Unless there was a malfunction... That was a disturbing thought.
He reached up, and felt something on his head. It felt all too familiar.
He grabbed it and pulled, but the creature, the headcrab, was tightly gripping his head. It couldn't take control, it couldn't get a good enough grip.
It also felt quite a bit softer then usual.
Gordon glanced up briefly, and saw a variaty of creatures. They all looked... sort of comicly creepy, like Halloween decorations.
