And in a pathetic attempt to do something more villian like... I'll attack metro again.

once again the endless army of stuff rush through the east side and attack the town

(Remember. Like all annoying RPGs, the enemys only end when you get the boss.)

 

>doo doo doo! Metro City attack powers activate! *corny theme song!*<

Para yawned a bit as he leaned against a roof entrance wall.

"Metro city should fall this time. Without it's hero guarding. This'll be all too easy."

 

... Fighty fightyness? ::backflips off the tree branch:: Umm... Not safeness. ::runs about a mile away from the city:: Safeness! @_@

 

Para sighed as he watched the legions of robots, demons, and undead/bio research projects attack the screaming masses.

"My dream comes true... the pure destruction of metro city and I feel so unfufilled. Where are those annoying heros?"

 

::spins around, and appears in his Assassin uniform::
(Assassin uniform: Red shirt, with ancient bandages on it, dark red pants, and a black trench coat. He has silver hair.)

::quickly runs to Pear Pear:: Umm.... I don't think anyone's here... ::sits down next to him:: I want to have great seats for this.

 

Now then... If only there was a show... ::pets Katars:: You'll have your day...

 

Para grumbles a bit and rolled his shoulders, his black hair caught in the morbid winds.

"I figured as much. All the champions off to some other place. Atleast an old wraith can be put to rest."

 

::pokes Amy:: He's talking funny again... ::wind picks up, gets up, and starts walking off::

(Amy Rose) ::pokes Chibi:: Yeah isn't he secksy when he talks all funny like that :P

 

Oh yes, very secksy. ;P ::spots a falling leaf:: Ooooh... A leaf.. ::throws a fireball at it:: @_@ There. Action. Yay.

 

(Amy Rose) WOW. Check out that action. WOWOWOWOW

 

"Ah hell... there goes the whole dramatic atmosphere and stuff."

 

(Amy Rose) Leave it up to me and Chib to ruin teh drama :O

 

Giggles a bit. "Eh sorry." Stares at the now nearly deserted city. "Looks like this place is going to just... Fade..." Looks up, the suns making his green eyes sparkle. "Someday... They'll be back... Someday..." Wind blows, and hair flows in the wind.

(WOWZERS! STORY-LIKE!)

 

(Amy Rose) ::gets all teary-eyed:: Chib that was brillance.

 

"Some day is far off. They'll be enraged to know that they're home town was destroyed. It'll be an interesting series of battles."

Para laughed coldly, a smile forming under his visor. Even the sun light couldn't penetrate the full face visor. But soon, like his face under the visor, even the sun would be blocked up from rising dust. Soon, all light would be withdrawn and the field would lay a dark barracks.

"Soon..."

 

Slowly sits down, and the looks at Amy and Pear. "Yeah it could be a bit. Hey anybody want to order pizza?" A cell phone floats infront of Chib Chib. "Well... Either that or what do you're minions want, Pear Pear?"

 

The assassin looks up from his celly. He franticly looks around for whoever said something. Quickly getting up, he yells down into the city. "HELLO! IS ANYBODY DOWN THERE! BESIDES CATTERBOX-ERS!"

 

The silver hair assassin raises his hand to his chest, with index and middle fingers points upwards. "Nobody... No one... IT'S MEANINGLESS! Tetris Blocks..." Drops hand. "SMASH!" As the echo of his vioce rings out, giant Tetris-like blocks start falling from the sky, of all shapes, and colors. "NOTHING MATTERS ABOUT THIS CITY ANYMORE! NOTHING!" The slightly crazed assassin shouts. "DESERTED! Left to die!" As he shouts this, the blocks fall faster, and start smashing buildings.

 

"Insanity. How vunerable..."

 

The giant Tetris Blocks stop. "Eh... I kinda go nuts when feeling alone" Chibi says, scratching his head.

 

The darkness of night is upon the city... Chib coughs. "Umm... Should we try invading Neo Metro City (SGSB)?" Inside his pockets, the Jadhamars (special Katars) glow silver, as if reacting to the darkness.

 

"Soon enough. Give me a minute to recollect on thoughts and we'll attack..."

 

"Yay attackness!" The cloaked one says, happily. In his pockets, the Jadhamars are still glowing stragely, as if about to use Sonic Jab...

 

"All right..."

Para sighed as he pulled himself into a full standing position.

"Let's go."

Para smirked coldly under his visor, activated his leg jet boosters, and went into the air.

"Lead the way."

 

"Whoo!" At that, Chibi jumps into the air, landing on the next building. "Whoo! Again!" Continues jumping on buildings.

 

The warriors drifted over the lifeless city, their hearts filled with disappointment and woe. The once thriving metropolis that had offered them so much sport could no longer manage a single defense. The sky was thick with dust and ash, though there was no one left to bear witness. The sun had set on this land, with its fallen towers and burned bridges. The chao Mafia, the many MKA bars, the shops, and the various houses of random insanity - all gone. Some had been destroyed by the attack, but most had crumbled in neglect. The few survivors lingered about the decaying streets, wandering aimlessly, swimmingly in the suffocating air.

Dark Para turned his eye one last time to the remains of a great culture, knowing full well the necessity of it. He turned at last to join his comrades heading toward Neo-Metro city, hoping that perhaps they might offer more amusement.

But he was stopped short as a red beam of energy grazed his left ear.

The group quickly turned to find its source. Below them, through the billowing clouds of dust stood a small band of warriors atop the only fully intact building. The Saiya-jins Club Bar & Grill. Some of the greatest and most dedicated RPers were among them. They were all that was left, the only ones still willing to fight. Their eyes and their weapons promised one last battle.

 

The one winged assassin falls from the sky, obviously asleep. The clouds fall behind him, as the lifeless city below grows closer. The first skyscraper flys by him, just inches away from hitting him. He awakes just a few meters above ground, and opens his wing, slowing him down. He walks over to the one place seemed to have life in it. "The Saiya-jin's Bar and Grill...?" he asks himself. "It's better then some other things I've heard of." He walks slowly in, and sits down. "I'll have the special... If there is any..." he says. He sighs and slowly closes his emerald eyes, thinking of the uselessness of attacking Neo-Metro City.

 

Sighs and lands on the street, surveying the chaos.

"How unfufilling... may as well get forces ready to move in. Leave nothing to waste."

 

(NEG) NEG:forget the city...THEY DESTROYED MY TV SET!!

Cameraman:oh the horror..

Mistic Meg:does this mean we're gonna move town?

NEG:Either that or someone can explain the last 6 pages as I cant be arsed going threw em.In the meantime lets just poke Paras metal suit thingy*

*they start poking paras metal suit thingy*

 

**Yoshindo exits a building with a newly appraised artifact in hand. Soon a explosion from one of Para's henchmen/minions total the building. He looks behind him and looks at the rubble.**

YOSHINDO; scratching the back of his head: Looks like those monster thingies are back to destroy the city. Better try and not bother them.

**Yoshindo tries to sneak away, hoping he will not be detected by the villains.**

 

(Subrosian2007) (Everyone hears a rather startiling anouncement for this perticular topic I am destroying my many other forms and only using normal, hyper, and cyber)

Sub stands high above on a skyscraper and stares down at Metro City again. He takes out his 2 sabers and nods and smiles.

"One last Time..."

He leaps from the top and goes into a speeding bullet formation. He drops his arms to a straight acute angle and points the sabers forward. He begins revolving faster and faster as he speeds towards the scene in the sky.

 

The assassin gets up and heads towards the exit. "Slow service around here..." He says exiting the building. He spies the ninja yoshi and runs up to him. "Got any food to spare?" He asks.

 

Karmis, who was raiding some abandoned apartments, see the ninja yoshi and the one-winged assissan. He jumps down onto the assassin's wing, quickly saying, "Hey what chu guys talkin' 'bout," before he slipped off and hit his head on the ground. "Ow......"

 

Chibi turns to Karmis. "Oh, I'm just asking about some food. Hey, get any good loot from the apartments? " He asks, before turning back to 'Shindo

 

"Hmm....Good question. Like the narrative said, they were abandoned. "Well, lemme check." Karmis rummages through the bag, finding some some teeth, a penguin, three dimes, and a bottle of cough syrup. "The penguin's name is Fluffy....Wait, what's this?" He finds his nucleus in the bag. "Hmm...That's odd." He looks up, to see that he has a tennis ball where his nucleus should be. "Oh yeah! I found a tennis ball as well!"

 

Frieza telepathically signals Sub.

Frieza: While we're waiting for Para's forces to arive, I suggest we attack "The Assassin". He is a 'boss' after all, and he's sitting outside our bar waiting for service. What say you?

 

YOSHINDO: Eh? I think I do. Let's see...

**Yoshindo goes through his bag that he has over his shoulder and pulls out several ninja stuff and other... stuff. He also pulls out some candy, a cupcake, an apple, an Italian sub, a cup of noodles, a pot, and a bottle of water. He continues to pull out different... stuff.**

 

Chibi stares at all of the food, drooling uncontrollably. "FOOD!" He yells, starting to eat anything eidble in sight. "Food good... Food gooooood... Chib Chib wuvs food." He says with his mouth full. He continues eating, swallows, and turns to the ninja. "You are almighty Food God!" He says, then continues eating. He stop again and looks at Frieza and Sub. "You know, now would be the time to attack me, with me distracted and all..." He says, and starts eating yet again.

 

Karmis looks at the ninja's belongings as he pulls them out. "Oooooooh, ninja stuff." He looks carefully for a bit, then says "Chib! Ninja star!" he laughed and fell backwards reminded of the beatings of Mav he and Blake did with ninja stars. He wiped a tear from his eye, "Ah...good times, good times."

 

(NEG) NEG:Ah...now theres an idea...

Cameraman:whaty

NEG:lETS FLOOD THE CITY! MMMWWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAA

Cameraman:er..how?

Mistic Meg:I can do it..if I could juuuust remember the spell..

NEG:Well hurry up and remember before they notice something.

 

The feasting assassin looks at Karmis, confused. "If you're amazed by that then umm..." He says, emptying his pocket, revealing a rather large amount of Shurikens (Ninja stars). "Yep..." He says. "All part of my job." He continues eating the random flying foods, while still kepping an eye on Sub and Frieza.

 

(If I'm ever too controlling, please say so. Different places have different standards on what controlling and PGing is.)

Frieza descends from the building top, landing a few feet from The Assassin. He jumps to his feet and positions himself defensively, though does not stop shoveling Yoshindo's delicious food into his mouth. The two warriors stare each other down, no mercy crossing either of their faces. Time stood still. Fighter and bystander alike stopped and watched the awkward moment. The first blow would soon be struck. The battle was about to begin.

So intense was the moment that The Assassin just barely noticed the energy gathering on his left. The half empty pot of noodles he was reaching his hand into exploded, launching him, spiraling, half a block away. Miraculously, he'd managed some defense, but had still sustained minor damage. He arose to find a simple, yet powerful ball of ki heading toward him.

 

(S'ok right now)
Chibi stares wide eyed at the ki ball. "Gah! Quickly, Warp Portal!" He yells, creating a small warp hole, narrowly escaping by falling through it. "That, was close." He says, picking up his Shurikens. His Katars glow a bright purple, at high speeds. "Enchant Poison..." He says, quietly. "MAGNUM BREAK!" He yells, jabing his Katar into the ground. A fiery wall goes outward from the point of impact.

 

(I'm aware of the shuriken/ninja star thing, it's just that we would say "(name)! Ninja Star!" But anywho....)

Karmis watched the intense battle start. He knew that this fight would get much uglier for Chibi if Sub joined, so Karmis had his blade drawn and was ready to stop anyone that would try to unfairly win. " The pretty colors must go on!" he said as he bounced the tennis ball off the wall.

 

Frieza quickly leaps into the air, hoping to avoid the attack all together, but it was too close. Frieza crossed his arms to shield his body, opting not to raise a barrier. He would save the energy.

As the conflagration passed, Frieza unfurls his body. The backs of his arms and tail emerged slightly scorched. Frieza brushed himself off.

"Impressive."

Without another word, Frieza fired a red beam from his finger. But much to the Assassin's surprise, it landed nowhere near him. Rather, it crashed through the wall of the 2 story building to his right, formerly Falcon’s ice-cream shop. In the blink of an eye, it exploded, blasting the fully intact front wall across the street, slamming The Assassin into and through another building, which shortly after collapsed upon him.

Frieza grinned maliciously. He'd forgotten how much fun this could be.

 

The building's rubble started to settle, no sign of Chibi. This is better than I thought... "Sonic Jab!" He said, pointing his Katar upward, making a hole in the roof. He jumped out quickly, grinning. "Nice little trick, there." He says. "Grimtooth..." He says very calmly,for having bruises on his head from the building. He reaches into his pockets and took out the Shurikens, glowing bright orange. "Demon lord, Baphomet! Use thy power to guide these blades!" He yells, inserting the Baphomet Card. The throws the shurikens very rapidly towards Frieza.

 

Message to only SPA: Who are we up against?

 

Summary: As you may know, Para (GS) occasionally launches attacks on Metro City (the commonly accepted name for the location of the SASB). Well, he's launched another one, but since the board has been all but deserted, he was met with no resistance. So for eight pages, they stand around and talk, occasionally blowing things up. Finally, they get tired of waiting and start to leave for Neo Metro City (SGSB). In reality, they do, but that doesn't really go anywhere.

Then the battle actually begins on page 9 with my first post (you may want to read from there on). To sum it up, Para is about to call in his forces, I've started battling The Assassin (CS), Sub has entered but hasn't done anything yet, and Yoshindo and Karmis are watching the fight.
-----------------------------------------------------------

A cluster of whirling blades, aglow with the unholy energy of demons, tears through the wind unrelentingly toward its target. Frieza could easily see they were no mere stars, but had time to do naught but dodge. Fortunately, speed was one of his strong suits. The shurikens whizzed by, one barely glancing off the crystalline plate in Frieza's chest. He gathered what energy he could and heightened his awareness, almost certain the blades would return for another, more precise pass, while simultaneously watching his shadowy opponent for further attacks.
----------------------------------------------
OOC: Is there something else I can call your character? "The Assassin" is getting repetitive, and since I don't know what you look like, I can't call you by a distinguishing feature of some kind.

 

(OOC: Umm... Just Chibi, Chib Chib, or Chibi Shadow)
Chib stared at the whirling stars floating behind Friza, and smiled with evil delight. The floated upward right above Frieza. "Powers of the Kitsune master, Moonlight Flower, and the shadow copy, Doppleganger! Add to my speed!" He yelled, adding in the cards. He quickly jumped into the air, grabbed the shurikens, and thrust them downward at Friza, while the assassin powers up a spell. "Lord... Of... VERMILLION!" He yells, raises his hands high, while suspended in the air. Large fiery meteors start falling from the sky...

 

Nemo: (Unfolds lawn chair and sits next to Sub) This is gettin' good.

 

Para turned his head, broken from his thoughts. He looked down on the city streets from the building, smiling under his visor

"Excellent. Looks like there is some one alive here besides us. I'll leave Chibi to deal with him until he gets bored though..."

Para sighed a bit as he sat at the edge of the sky scraper, feet hanging down, head staring across the streets, the original cloud of destruction finaly lifting higher into the air. The sun was still blocked, but it was a bit easier to see.

 

Beneath his usual idiotic behavior, Nemo was actually concentrating madly. Watching the two combatants (<-- I like that word) exchanging giant blows before, and putting on a look of his usual innocence and braindeadness, he felt something was watching, perched somewhere. Without giving himself away, he leaned back and yawned, head toward the sky, eyes open just enough to briefly scan the layout above him. His eyes shot open, the look on his face stern he jumped up out of his chair and looked up the building behind him.

Nothing.

He stood there still, gazing while Sub, Karmis, and the ninja yoshi surveyed the most recent attack. He knew he had seen something, he knew it was still up on the roof top, but he had no idea what it was.

 

Karmis sat in silence. To the untrained eye, it looked as if he was really watching the intense fight. Most people would think that, until "...NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!! DAMN YOU APOCALYPSE!!!! I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!!!! MARK MY WO--" Karmis looked around, realizing that the battle was still going on. "Oh, well then, I guess it's back to MUGEN." He grumbled, as he wanted to fight someone and well, not lose on MUGEN anymore....At least not having it freeze.

 

Chibi looks toward 'Shindo and Karmis as his meteors drew closer. "You might want to move..." He said pointing a bit farther than the ruined building. "About that far should be safe." The meteors were about 200 stories above Para now. "Demon monster Beelzebub! Decrease the time needed!" He says slotting in the card. The meteors plunge quickens...

 

"Chibs! Shut up! I'm trying to beat the game here!" He continued playing completely unaware of the danger.

 

Chibi stared at Karmis. "Oh... Kay..." He said hearing the reply from him. "WARP PORTAL!" He said, throwing a Blue Gem at Karmis' feet, teleporting him and 'Shindo to a safe area. "ICE WALL!" He said, and giant ice spires come out of the ground, trapping the fighters inside. The meteors continue to grow closer...

 

(OOC: Ways to survive Lord of Vermillion: (Just to make things better)
Dodge all 20 or so meteors (Not easy o.o;;;)
Blast the Ice Walls (About a ton of force needed)
Take the yellow gem that I summoned the meteors and throw it over the Ice wall
Have enough stamina to survive all 20 impacts)

The cloaked assassin laughed maniclly...

 

Nemo turns his attention back to the task at hand, and shifts forms and changes his spikes blue, greatly hightening his speed, though decreasing his attack power. "Dodging should be fairly easy. Only twenty meteors." He says.

 

Chibi turns to Nemo. "You sure about that? 20 HUGE meteors, closely together,and their shockwaves?" He asks, sounding sure of his attack.

 

YOSHINDO; scratching his head: I could have teleported myself away... ah, well. Thanks, anyway. **looks up at the many meteors.** If only Beamer was here, then we could add another meteor the the bunch... a massive one at that.

 

(John the Echidna) a building seems to lift itslef from the ground and propel into the distance, moments later a torrent of fire blasts from where the building just was, when the smoke clears a slightly damaged robot emerges and starts to walk into the main square

ProtoJohn: "What the hell was that? felt like i was hit by a freaking bus..."

the robot unequips his selected Crash Bomb and surveys the scene

PJ: "...it finnaly happened...."

the robot stares into the blackened sky and appears to reach a decision about something....

 

Nemo lifts his feet off the ground and slowly accends, stopping and hovering at about twenty feet above the ground. "I'm sure." He replies to the assassin.

 

Nemo: I just got an idea, but I don't have time to write it now. So, nobody post until I get this off. It's gone too far as it is. Supposedly, I still have to evade the shirikans one more time.

 

(OOC: Heh... Forgot about the Shuriken. Umm... Most of the speed was used in casting Lord of Vermillion, so they're going pretty slow. Mainly a distraction.)

 

Minute twinklings of sunlight had begin to show themselves. The darkness had begun to lift, slowly, cautiously, doubtfully. There was not yet enough light to reach the ground, but the atmosphere around the overly-dramatic city hung noticeably brighter.

For the moment.

Using the energy he'd gathered, Frieza formed a compression of telekinetic energy between him and the approaching weapons and immediately released it, slowing the stars, and propelling him downward. A few of them had strayed from their course, but there were still enough to present a challenge. With little time left, Frieza twisted his body into an unlikely position, removing himself from the path of all but 4 stars. With a stabbing motion from his tail, Frieza knocks the nearest star from beneath, causing it to lose its aerodynamic balance and twirl wildly. Its flat bounces harmlessly off the young emperor's stomach. The next two are met with a small gale from his mouth, diverting them enough to clear his arm by a fraction of a millimeter. But the last of them could not be entirely avoided, leaving a small scratch on his shoulder. A trickle of blood began to form. A malevolent grimace came over the Icy prince's face. The drawing of first blood in a battle had always fascinated him, even if it was his own.

As the shuriken stuck into the pavement below, Frieza returned his full attention to Chibi Shadow, who appeared to be finishing an incantation. The sky grew suddenly more turbulent. The clouds of dust became less and less visible as the sky darkened. An enormous change in gravity shook the battlefield. Frieza cast his eyes upward and beheld the fiery legion of rocks, as well as the wall of ice that had surrounded him.

And...Nemo?

Frieza surveyed the sky once more, considering the best way to deal with it. The answer came to him.

Frieza: Ah, perfect timing Nemo! Quickly, give me your hand!

Nemo: Huh?

Frieza: Just do it!

He snatches Nemo's hand forcefully and psychically relays instructions to him. He matches Frieza's grin. They turn toward the blazing heavens, ready to meet them. The sky had become black as starless night, save the crimson light bathing the entire city. The forest of decayed buildings glowed eerily. The wall of ice seemed as frozen blood. An apocalyptic aura fell upon the land. But deep within this doomed land lay a dim light. Two warriors standing hand in hand at the heart of the devastation, their energy soaring higher and higher.

The pair threw their heads to the sky and cried out, their bodies and power ascending as one. The ground quaked violently, spewing clouds of torpid dust. Soon, gravity gave way and the shattered asphalt rose into the maelstrom. Every window within two blocks was blown out, every living creature shook with the energy.

Frieza: Now Nemo!

 

Nemo's eyes go black as ink. His pupils disappear. The rest of his body became a blur. In an indistinguishable display of twisted light, he holds his hand to the menacing Vermillion fury above as physics bends around him.

Nemo: CHAOS CONTROL!!!

As Ace had once told Frieza, Chaos Control needn't be limited to teleportation and time manipulation, but could be used for the very manipulation of matter itself. It was with this new understanding that Nemo channeled his ability to him, as likewise Frieza focused his energy through Nemo. Amidst the madness above there came a vociferous rumbling, coupled with a brilliant stroke of radiance. Within the field of meteors, space folded in an oscillating spiral, casting them every which way to the distant horizons with the power of an inverted black hole. The rocks were of a very high mass, but once mass is no longer an issue, they are easily dealt with. Everyone was floored (literally). Many of the weakened buildings crumbled, flooding the streets in a dirty haze. Those who could see through it were astounded to find all of the meteors were gone.

All but one.

One final stone still hurtled toward the city below. It was moving at three times its previous speed, and heading straight for The Assassin.

 

The cloaked assassin smiled as his attack neared him. He turned to Frieza. "Not the smartest of moves, but you have been spared of the attack." He said, awaiting his attack to smash him. "Come to me, my flames of fury..." He calls out to it. He lands and holds out his hand. "Fire ball..." He says, creating a small flame, and starts juggling it, slowly absorbing it.

 

Frieza: Look closer.

The flaming exterior of the meteor finally cracks, revealing an enormous energy ball within its recently hollowed core. Chibi Shadow can only gasps in shock as he is pressed against its burning edge and driven downward.

 

Hmm... I wasn't expecting the meteor to hit so hard... Was it the extra speed? The meteor still kept smashing Chibi, yet he smirks. "I guess you didn't know... My fire abilities..." He said, and the meteor's flames start getting absorbed into him. As the flames are gone, Chibi kicks off the meteor into the Ice Walls, shattering them. "Didn't expect that, did you Frieza?" He asks, his clothes flaming with power.

 

Reread my last post. In fact, let me just highlight the part you missed.
--------------------------------------
The flaming exterior of the meteor finally cracks, revealing an enormous [scarlet] energy ball within its recently hollowed core. Chibi Shadow can only gasps in shock as he is pressed against its burning edge and driven downward.

And the energy ball is not fire energy.

 

(OOC: I can't find the video, but Lord of Vermillion is mostly fire besides a semi-large rock. Not enough to hurt someone really bad. Rock has a VERY large Lightning/Wind element, my other element. So I'm mostly immune to Lord of Vermillion.)

 

OOC: I'm sorry, I'm not being too clear. What I'm saying is that while I was doing the Chaos Control thing, I changed that one meteor. Now, rather than a flaming rock, it's a hollow flaming rock. Inside the thin surface is a big red ball of ki (a deathball). Just before it hits you, the flaming outer shell shattered and fell off, revealing the attack. Apparently, you were expecting anything like this, so I'd say it suprised your character. Then it hits him, and begins pushing him down, through the air/building/ground you're over. Deathballs are volatile, so a lot of hits, or a piercing energy attack may cause it to explode (considerably BIG explosion).

I hope that clears it up.

 

As fighters, standing by or in combat, watch as The Assassin tries to quickly prepare himself to fight off Frieza's attack, the blue spiked porcupine in the sky reverts back to his normal stage drops the ground.

As the deathball makes contact with The Assassin, Nemo starts running around a flattened building, keeping his head low so as to be seen as little as possible, and trying to hide his now rapidly growing power level. He could only be able to accomplish what he was aiming for if he managed to gain enough strength to do it. Hopefully, no one would notice his absence, and no one would come after him, for he wanted to see what magic he could bring to the battle.

 

YOSHINDO; watching the battle: Heh... this is getting good battle. Maybe I should get...

**Yoshindo unsheathes his blade and... starts polishing it while eating a small sandwich from his bag.**

 

Karmis gets tired of the glitchy Epyon and decides to watch the Metro battle again. "Stupid Beta....." He grumbles then notices 'Shindo...and 'Shindo's food. He asks, "Do you have any to spare? If so, could I please have some?" Boredom was setting in, and it was either to talk to the ninja or attack him. And he chose the first...For now.

 

OOC: Ah I see... The whole thing lost me anyway.. ^.^;

The assassin stared wide eyes at the mass of energy. "... This... Hurts... A lot..." He says, trying to get it off. But with my depleated Magic and Cards, and... Wait! Chibi's smashed hand tries to reach into his pocket and grab a Gem. "Stare of the Sidewinder! STONE CURSE!" He said, smashing the Gem. The ball of energy starts to harden into stone and shatter, but so does Chibi's hand and leg... Better hurt than dead...

 

Nemo continues running toward the outskirts of the city, still rapidly gaining energy. He almost had enough to accomplish what he was aiming for. His body exploded into a gold ball of energy as he reached his desired strength, and vanished totally from within range of any of the fighters' sensing areas.

This especially grabbed the attention of Frieza, who was concerned about what had happened to his comrad after the sudden vanishing of his presence.
~~~~~~~~
I'm not leaving the battle... Just... well, I don't want to spoil it.

 

The meteor's petrifying had finished, and it shattered. "That's a relief but..." He says, looking at his shattering arm and leg. "At a price. Life has no price, but I have the power..." He said, as the sockets where his limbs were started bleeding. "Knight of Abyss... Call... The.. Tea-" He said, passing out.

In a building nearby...
A knight with a dual bladed sword (not on both ends, mind you), torn cape, and demonic hat on sat on his Nightmare ("Hell Horses", Nightmares are demonic horses that bring the souls of warriors to hell). "It's time." He said, opening his blood red eyes. He rode off towards Glast Hiem, the deserted home of a long forgotten god. Here, Chibi's "gang" lives. The knight had reached Morroc. Damn... This is taking way too long. I have to make it to past Geffen. That's almost 3 hours from here on horse... and half after that. He said riding faster and faster towards the Checkpoint, Prontera.

 

"Ah crap....I told him if he needed help to call me." Karmis went over to Chibi's body and started to drag it to an abandoned building. He took some rubble and covered Chibi's body with it. He grabbed a bloodstained shirt and put it over Chibi's face. "Don't worry, this is how pioneers eluded demons in the old days. I saw it on the Discovery Channel. Or maybe it was Inuyasha." He shrugged and walked back to his seat.

 

Chibi opened an eye. "I'm a demi-demon..." He said, quickly closing his eye again, out cold.

The Abysmal Knight was trotting though the Morroc Desert. Hmm... Maybe... If I strike a bargin with the Orc Hero, I could get to Geffen in an hour... He thought passing the entrace to Orc Forest. I'll try it. He headed into the forest and asked the nearest Orc. "You, Orc! I need to speak with your leader, the Orc Hero!" He demanded. "Duh uhhh... He's uhh... Over there." He pointed towards the Orc Village. The dark knight wasted no time and headed there and went into the Orc Hero's hut. "Hero! I have a favor to ask!" He said. "Mmm... Kob. How have you been? And what is this favor?" The Orc replied. "Never call me KoB. And I've been good. The favor, have you beaten down any Acolytes lately?" He asks...

 

**Yoshindo picks up all his stuff and follows Karmis and the unconsious Chibi Shadow into the abandon building. He sits down on an old crate and looks at the two.**

YOSHINDO: Wonder if Chib is gonna be okay? **turns to Karmis.** Oh, yeah. If you want you can have some of my food.

**He tosses Karmis a medium-sized bag of food he had.**

YOSHINDO: Just save me some, okay?

 

Chibi turns a bit, then stops, having a better time being out now.

The Orc Hero responded. "Well... Yes. I have. Just one today." "Great! Did he leave behind any... Shiny blue rocks?" The demonic knight asked. "Yes, two. You need them?" The green warrior asked. "Yes, badly." He said. The Orc handed the Knight two Blue Gemstones. "Thanks, friend. WARP PORTAL!" He said, thrusting down one of his newly owned gems at the ground. A familiar warp sequence occured, and the Knight was left in a town square. A broken fountain, poisoned water, the occasional Myst and Poison Spore mosters passed. "I'm here." He said, riding into the great building in Glast Hiem.

 

"Chib's out of the game for now. Leaves me space to come in... but when? Maybe I'll just let them find me first. It doesn't seem correct to barge in on anothers fight even when they are knocked cold..."

 

Karmis takes an orange and sticks it into himself. It quickly dissolves, but Karmis looks happy. "Mmm....Anywho, Chibs will be fine. I heard in times of drought the pioneers would do the dance of much pain to soothe all pain. So I tried that on Chibs a bit ago. He didn't seem to like it too much, but it's a dance to see if the person's still alive or not. So he is. Oh yeah...." He hands Yoshindo the bag back. "That's enough. I was just feeling a tad bit fatigued. Which is odd, because I haven't done much. Anywho..." He takes out the tennis ball and starts throwing it against a wall. " I heard this is how the pioneers passed time and decided the ruler of weasel's teeth."

 

YOSHINDO: Yes, "Wall Ball" can past a good amount of time.

**Yoshindo pulls out some cards out of his one of his pockets and studies them to also past some time.**

 

"You forgot the part about ruling weasel's teeth. For shame."

 

In the god's castle in Glast Heim, in the area Chibi claimed...

"WHO THE HELL TOOK MY CAPE?!" Asks a Wizard, wearing a white shaded outfit, with short brown hair. "Have you thought I was washing it, Hacker?" Asked another Wizard, this one female, wearing a red cape, with red hair. "Forgot again, Caity" Answered Hacker. "Hey honey, why do Hacker and Caitlyne always find a way to fight?" Asks a Knight wearing a normal cape, with green hair. "They are... Neighbors. What do you expect?" Replies his 'wife', the yellow-and-red hair priestess, Sandrine. The Abysmal Knight walks into the room, leaving the Nightmare behind. "Hey... Guys... We've got a bit of trouble." He says. Nobody listens. He sighs. "They never listen..." He mumbles. "CHIBI IS IN DEEP CRAP PEOPLE! GET A MOVE ON!" He yells. They turn to him, and gather together. "Ok, boys and Caitlyne... We're off." Sandrine says. The Abysmal Knight throws the Blue Gem at their feet, and they disappear. "Moonlight Flower speed, guys..." The lone knight says.

 

OOC: (I should have posted this yesterday. It would have saved us a page of empty posting. BTW, before we go any further, how much delimbing and killing are you allowing?)

IC:

Frieza stood silently confused as his energy ball turned to stone. Confusing also was his Porcupine partner’s peculiar performance, but Frieza had become accustomed to such odd behavior. Though his disappearance was unsettling, Frieza knew he had something in mind.

The cold hearted warrior returned his attention to Chibi, but he was nowhere to be seen. He ran to the spot where his body had fallen, but found no trace. Fortunately for the weakened assassin, the drag marks in the street had been covered by dust. His power level was very faint, impossible to pinpoint, yet he had to be alive. He scanned with all his might, but could only tell he was nearby. There was no one to be found but Para, Yoshindo, and Karmis.

Frieza: Hm...

Frieza turned around and marched through the dust toward a debris filled alleyway, unknowingly following the path straight for The downed Assassin. On arrival, he discovered Yoshindo and Karmis sharing a meal. They quickly stopped and looked up, like rabbits in the carriage lights. There was an awkward moment of silence; the two warriors stood very still, quietly hoping he wouldn't notice the pile of rock and dust between them that was oozing blood intermittently. "I told you we shouldn't have had a picnic on the body!" Yoshindo whispered.

Frieza: Greetings, friends. Perchance you saw where they young Assassin landed?

Yoshindo: 'fraid not, friend.

Karmis: We were a bit preoccupied with our food, you see. Weren't paying much attention.

Frieza thought about this, and closed his eyes patiently, maintaining his composure. He appeared calm, commanding, yet somewhat annoyed. An unusually cold wind whistled through the ally, giving birth to small dust devils, which died just as quickly.

Frieza: If there's one thing I refuse to tolerate...

Frieza's power spiked. Energy began arching from his sleek form, coursing through the air, striking everything around it. Jolts of energy scorched the ground, chipped away at surrounding buildings, and struck the two defenders. It was about as painful as sticking your finger in a light socket, but they knew there was more to come. The force quickly grew. The arcs became bolts of lightning, tearing through walls and street. Abruptly, it stopped.

Frieza: …it's cowardice.

 

The Emperor's blood red eyes fix on the sky. He pulls the energy he's gathered into one hand and shouts.

Frieza: Assassin! Come out now and face your death with dignity!

(Whether Chibi manages to pull himself from his cover, or whether he chooses to stay hidden is irrelevant)

Yoshindo and Karmis rise from their seats, ready to defend their friend, and perhaps themselves. Frieza takes no notice of them. With a dramatic motion, he pounds his charged hand into the ground. So great is the stored power that everything on the ground within a block is filled with a massive surge of electricity. The current passes through their bodies for 7 seconds before defusing into the earth. Yoshindo and Karmis fall to the floor, their skin slightly charred and melted from the heat produces, their every nerve twitching. Frieza walked past them to the dust pile that had popped during the attack and was now covered in blood. From it he drew the twisted remains of his opponent. His skin was melted, fused with bits of metal and rock. Blood poured from his every orifice, slowly soaking Frieza's hand. Much to Frieza's delight (and minor confusion), he was missing an arm and a leg. His internal organs were badly damaged. Some appeared to have exploded under the pressure, causing massive internal bleeding. He was beginning to spasm. From the looks of the pile he'd been under, some of the twisted garters had attracted large amounts of the current. How tragically convenient.

Frieza hoisted his prize by the neck and brought it out to the street. Its two guardians slowly rose, and prepared to save the captive Chibi, but as Frieza turned and held him out, they froze. If they attacked, Frieza would surely snap him in two before they would help. But if they waited...would he fare much better?

A heartless pair of crimson orbs peered through the misty air at the dying thing in their hand. They watched its essence drip slowly from it into pools on the shattered earth. They saw the life fading, slipping away. It had been a long time since they'd indulged themselves in this dismal procession.

Dainty lips so red they shone black spoke a warning to the city.

Frieza: Para! Your friend is dispatched. I suggest you make yourself known. Quickly, or-

With a single swift motion, Frieza cast the limp body into the street, smashing through the weakened asphalt and concrete, into an underground sewage line. The raw sewage of the SASB began to seep into his body. Blood flowed downstream. Fortunately (or unfortunately, it's your take), he landed on his back, allowing him the ability to breath (in theory).

Frieza: ...accidents may happen.

 

Chibi woke from the impact. "You're too late. My friends are on their way. It should only take the Abysmal Knight half an hour more to get to Glast Hiem. Then, I can be healed. And you'll be in for a su... pr... ise..." He said, falling asleep again.

In the Warp Portal...

Hacker: He tapped his foot on the air. "Why does this take so long?"

Sandrine: She turned to Hacker. "Because we have many people, silly."

Caitlyne: Chibi...

Mazauron: "I should've eaten before we left..." He says, his stomache growling.

Knight of Abyss: "Focus! These people... Aren't like Doppleganger, Baphomet, and Osiris! They're like them commbined!" He said, pointing at everyone with his blades.

The long warp sequence continued...

 

Frieza: What? You can still speak?!

Against of the shock of Chibi’s ability to speak, it took a moment for what he’d actually said to register. Frieza’s eyes narrowed, and he leapt into the sewage duct. Again, he grabbed the enfeebled Assassin’s limp body by the neck and spoke to it, unsure if it could hear.

Frieza: Quite a mouth you have there. As surprising as it sounds, I was going to let you live. But now that I know reinforcements are coming to heal you, I see no reason to allow it. So then…

(Frieza pulls back a glowing hand, prepared to blast the powerless Chibi to dust)

Frieza: Have a pleasant trip.
------------------------------------------<
OOC: At this point, since I haven’t gotten an answer about killing, I suppose I should allow some time for a reaction from Yoshindo, Karmis, or Para.

 

Nemo stood on the moon of the distant planet of Richon. There was no atmosphere, but he was still managing to breathe perfectly, meaning: he was deadly accurate with his teleportation about where he was going, and he was so close he felt as if It was right next to him, along with the person he was searching for. He began creeping forward, gazing through the thick haze of dust which the beheld the moon. With his first step he pushed himself two feet off the ground, forgetting about the great decrease in gravity.

He heard shifting rocks behind him, and whirled around into a defensive stance, only find a black-gloved hand already in his face. "What are you doing back here?" Asked the owner of the hand.

 

Knight of Abyss: Tapping his sword on the ground, obviously nervous. "How much longer will this take?"

Sandrine: "Oh it'll be ready right.... About... Now!" She said, as the colors of the portal disppear, and Metro city blurred into place.

Hacker: "This place reminds me of Al De Baran's Clock Tower..." The wizard says to himself.

Sandrine: "No time for this! We have to hurry!" She says, heading for the area where the combatants were fighting.

Knight of Abyss: "I'll go ahead and try to get to him first." He says, galloping off ahead of the others. Reaching the hole in the ground to the sewer, he looks down and sees Frieza choking Chibi. "Frieza! Leave Chibi alone! He's nearly dead already. The other won't make it here in time. Now you..." He said, pointing his sword at Frieza, "You fight me."

 

**Yoshindo slowly get back up and holds his left rib cage as he falls back to his knees. He pants as he looks at the all the burn marks on his body he received from Frieza's attack. He then stands up and limps towards the sewer duct where Frieza took Chibi into.**

YOSHINDO; thinking to himself: Dang... I would like to fight this guy as a ninja... but I may need to transform or call for back up if I'm to deal with this guy.

**Yoshindo then hear someone(Knight of Abyss) in the sewer duct. He back away, suprised.**

YOSHINDO; to himself: Who's in there?!

 

Knight of Abyss: "I am the Abysmal Knight, general of Chibi's Army of the Ragnarok, winner of the battle in the orignal Glast Hiem." He says to the Ninja Yoshi.

 

YOSHINDO; thinking for a sec: ......Chibi has a army? Interesting...

 

"Long time no see." Nemo replies to being before him. "You haven't changed a bit."

"What are you doing back here?" The person asks again.

"I need it. Well, actually I just need you to tell me where it is, and provide me with enough air to get to it."

"Why can't I just take you there?"

"Because..." Nemo answers, "You and I both know how far under ground it is, and I need you to cover for me at the battle I came here from."

"Battle?"

"Why do you ask me such things when you can just read my mind?"

No reply.

"Will you help me or not?" Nemo asks.

"Why should I?"

"You knew the answer to that when I appeared on this hunk of rock. You. Owe. Me." The person Nemo was facing stood thinking about this in remembrance.

"Fine. But when you get it, you get off of here so I won't have to use my power keeping you alive."

Nemo smiled. "You won't have to worry about that." The other turned and began walking in the other direction to get a map. "By the way..." Nemo continued, "Any idea what Tan's been up to lately?"

 

"Oh. I see! So then, this is your leader whose neck I hold in my hand?" Frieza said, smiling menacingly.

Abysmal Knight: Let him go! His fight is done. He poses no threat to you.

Frieza: Oh, I beg to differ. You see, but seconds ago he mentioned something about his friends coming to heals him and, well...

(Frieza's grip slowly tightens, cutting off Chibi's wind pipe)

Frieza: With the absence of Nemo, Ace, Sub, and Trunks, I think I have enough opponents to deal with for the moment.

(He slowly begins twisting Chibi's head, bringing his neck to the brink of cracking. The Knight charges in rage, but stops himself as Frieza holds Chibi out as a shield)

Frieza: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Look at you! Why, I dare say that this creature is far more to you than a leader! I'd say he's also close friend of yours. Hm?...I wonder, would you barter your own life in exchange for his? Ahahahahahahahahahaaa!!!!

Frieza's vile laughter echoed throughout the sewage tunnel, but before the knight could express his disgust (physically or verbally), Frieza snapped Chibi's neck, and cast him through the ceiling. He traveled 10 blocks (in the opposite direction of the newly arrived party), landing by the city limits.

Frieza: With that boy's constitution and stamina, I'd give him...oh 20 minutes tops before he's completely beyond your help. Now then, shall we begin?

 

A small rocket whistled through the air, pounding deep into the ground beside Friezza. The shock wave was enough to rocket him forward. A loud clang echoed in the air much like metal against concrete.

"Child's play."

The figure laughed coldly before rising to it's full repliod height.

"Expect me to try and aim next time. You, knight of Chibi, go get his body. I'll deal with this one."

 

The Knight and his crew raced toward Chibi's body, anxcious to heal him, while another figure flew down into the crevice that held Frieza, blocking any chance he had to keep everyone else from Chibi's body. As the closed in on the body, The Knight spoke, "He's around here, everyone search for him."

The party scattered out, looking behind clumps of rock and flattened building. "He's over here!" Came a voice belonging to [insert name of one of your guys here]. The Healer (don't know which of your guys that is) walked over and found his man kneeling next the lifeless body of Chibi.

"Good." Said The Healer, and he bent down. "Everyone over here!" His men were beside him in seconds. The healer put out his hands to heal.

Nothing happened.

"Let's get going eh?" One of his men said.

"I... can't... move." He replied softly and slowly.

His men drew their weopons and stood in a circle around him.

"HELL'S FLAME!" Came a shout from above, and a person flew down from the top of a building as blue fire erupted upon The Healer. As he couldn't move still, the he was only able to sit there and let the fire engulf him. They looked up, and saw a wizard, with long gold hair standing up above his head, and a dark, long, black jacket running down his side.

"You... MONSTER!" One of his men charged at the wizard, sword drawn.

The Wizard held out his black-gloved hand, and the sword that his attacker held turned red and combusted in a shower of sparks, lighting his hand on fire. "I don't think we've been introduced." he said putting his hand down at his side, facing his attackers with his side, watching his most recent victom scream in pain. "The name's Z. And I don't care what your names are as you'll all be dead soon.

 

Chibi's eyes opened wide. He laughed evilly as he started standing up. "Flames of hell, heal me!" He says, absorbing the fire. His leg had regerated, but he was still one-armed.

Mazauron: The knight unsheathes his sword. The sword pulsed with lightning every few seconds. It was the Balmung, also known as the Thunder Sword or Caladbolg. In his other hand he holds a thin balded sword, the Tsurugi.

Hacker: He is surrounded by a blue aura, his Spirit Power building up. He streches out his hands and they spark a bit.

Caitlyne: She stands beside Hacker, surrounded by a red aura. She does the same as her neighbor.

Sandrine: She holds her hands together, and then points at Chibi. "Blessings of the heavens! Sanctuary!" A blinding light surrounds Chibi.

Chibi stands in the same spot, perfectly healed. "And this, kiddies, is why you NEVER use fire attacks on me." He says coldly. He points his Katars out and they glow purple with vemon.

Knight of Abyss: "Kyrie Elysium!" He says, casting a spell that lessens damage on his comrads. "The stage is set, the cards are ready, and we shall win."

 

(Bulzebe) Bulzebe appeared on the top of a building, a smirk upon his face. "So I see the city still stands..."

 

Z faces his attackers. As Chibi gains his energy back, and he realizes his error, he begins making direct eye contact with all of his foes. His sight pierces through them, trying to measure their power levels. As he finally gets to Chibi, finishing his long stare down, he holds his right hand out in front of him, toward the others. They heighten their guard as a gold aura surrounds his hand. The aura sits for a second, then shoots out two feet in either direction of his hand, and finally materializes into a gold glowing staff, which moves itself into a holding position. The staff hovers in the air for a second or two before Z grabs it. He steps back on his right foot, positioning himself with his right arm, holding the staff, away from his opponents, and facing them with his left side, green eyes glaring.

"Very well then." He speaks and makes a signal with his front hand for any of his adversaries to do something.

 

Chibi: He quickly disappears while readying an attack. "Grimtooth..." He says, sounding like it comes from all directions.

Hacker: "You've survived one Lord of Vermillion... But try two at a time!" He yells, slotting in two Mistress card into his staff. 40 meteors start to gather.

Caitlyne: "You've felt the strength of the cards, but how about the monsters themselves? SUMMON!" She yells. From the Pyramids of Morroc, Osiris head out towards Metro City. In the dephs of Hidden Temple, the Demon Lord Baphomet heads out with his Creasent Scythe. From the top of Geffen Tower, the ghostly swordsman Doppleganger heads towards the battle.

Sandrine: "Safety Wall!" She says, creating a safe area around her. "How do you like someone with hundreds of Blue Gems, and this ability?"

Mazauron: "Two-Hand Quicken!" He says. He glows a lime green and does fancy sword manuvers.

Knight of Abyss: "Don't make me rally the troops..." He mumbles.

Chibi: "Ready?" He says, appears behind 'Z' "VENOM DUST!" He says, attempting a stab to 'Z's back.

 

Karmis looked at his ripped shirt and his healed cover and sighed. "That's it, I'm going in." He looked over to Yoshindo. "Thank you for the meal, though it may be my last. I'm leaving most of my weapons here. If I die, you can have them." He rushes out to battle, only to realize he doesn't know who to help. "Hey guys! Which one of you needs more help, Chibs or Para?" He was torn, as he wanted to help stop Freiza, the torturer of the innocent, but this 'Z' may pose a problem.

 

Bulzebe looked down at the fighting that was going on. He then sighed, waiting for something.

 

"Time Freeze!" Z shouts, and shoves his staff toward the sky. A white glow shoots out of the top of the glowing gold rod in his hands and arcs down over himself and into the ground. To the other fighters, and instant passes with seemingly no change except the dissapearence of Z, but a quick survey prooves otherwise.

40 white orbs float in groups of five in strategic locations high above the city, all ready to take on the Lord of Vermillion attacks.

Caitlyne can tell something is wrong with her Summonors, and a quick telepathic reading reveals that they've all been frozen in ice chambers. (Not frozen solid, but they're all stuck in their own hollow ice cube)

Sandrine finds herself untouched by any attack, Z had not enough time in his Time Freeze to deal with matters not posing a threat to him at the moment.

Mazauron finds his sword instantaneously a burning red, and the metal part accelerated to a temperature high enough to melt gold.

Chibi's blade swipes nothing but air, and he turns toward Z's energy high in the sky above.

"MOTA ORBS..." Shouts the gold-haired wizard, referring to the white sphere's floating above the city. "FIRE!!!" He booms loud enough to have shattered a normal being's ear drum. All 40 of his orbs shoot higher into the air, each toward a different meteor. Instead of them all striking their meteors, they seap in within them, and explode in blasts perfectly parrallel to the ground, blowing the meteors to bits, still big enough to do reasonable damage though.

Z dematerializes his staff and spreads his hands directly out to his sides, palms spread perpendicular to the ground. Black spheres the size of basketballs flash at the ends of his wingspan for a split second, and dissapear, only to come back totally a second later. He pushes the balls together in front of him to make an even bigger black one.

"Atom Bomb." He says without expression, total monotonity in his voice. He reaches back with the bomb in his hand and hurls upward toward the descending pieces of rock burning through the air. As the black spheroid reaches its peak height, Z sweeps his arms in front of him.

Above the city, a brilliant display of black glowing light is seen from every direction, momentarily blinding all but the wizard controlling the attack. Within the great light, a magnificent well of gravity is forged, pulling all the flaming rubble tumbling from the sky into one super dense mass. The mass begins hurling toward the ground at an astounding speed. As it passes by Z, still accelerating, he rematerializes his gold glowing staff and fires out of it a green beam that engulfs the rock mass and pulls it toward him. He uses an anti-weight spell and pockets the rock for later.

 

(Bulzebe) Bulzebe crossed his arms, still standing on the top of the building. "This bores me." Bulzebe jumped back off the ledge of the building, falling extremely quickly due to his weapons, he then move to where his face if looking forward at the ground, he moves to the side of the building as his feet touch the building, he then begins to move his legs back and forth, back and forth, thus causing him to run down the building. When he reaches the bottom, he kicked off the building, then moved to where his feet would reach the ground, and he would land on the ground on his feet.

 

can you guys recap I want to join in this RP (I tried reading from the start and kinda got lost during the last few pages)

By the way, if you ever wish to refer to me, call me "Maxim"

 

Para sighed and looked across the battle field. Chibi was back into his fight. No need to start another without risk of falling into the attacks. Best to just wait and find some opening.

 

Recap: Dark Para (Guardian Sythe) and his allys have attacked Metro city again for the some odd millionth time. But this time, with so few people left on the board, no one was there to stop him. So, after about 8 pages of nothing happening, the S.P.A. showed up (or at least two of us). Me and Nemo. Sub peaked his head in, but I guess he didn't think it looked any good.

And so the fighting begins, and not many important things have happened so far. The teams are as follows.

Defenders:

Frieza......(battling Para)
Nemo.......(off on some far distant planet collecting some item)
Z..........(controled by Nemo. Currently battling Chibi and his forces)
Sub........(absent)
Ace........(absent)
Trunks.....(absent)

Offence:

Para............(Leader)
Chibi...........(Second in command)
Chibi's forces..(a bunch of guys from a game [ragnarock?])
Yoshindo........(not fighting)
Karmis..........(considering fighting)

You may join whatever team you wish. I don't think anyone would mind.

 

Chib sighed. "Man, I'm too hungry for this." He said, holding his stomache. "Cloaking!" He said disappearing.

Hacker: He shrugs. "Hope you liked handling level one spells. Ready for some bolts?" He asks. "Fire bolt, Lightning Bolt, Cold Bolt!" He shouts, 10 lightning bolts headed for 'Z'. 10 bolts of fire fall from the sky, and 10 ice spikes head up from the ground.

Mazauron: He laughs. "I don't wear think gloves for nothing." He says.

Caitlyne: "So they're stuck eh?" She asks, waving her hands, creating fire. "Fire wall!" She yells, surrouning 'Z' in fire.

Knight of Abyss: He follows where he thinks Chibi is going, for he is hungry too.

 

"Easy." Z says, postioning the staff directly in front of him pointing up. He casts a spell telekinetically, and, unseen through the blaze of fire about him, puts up a green shield of energy. "Water Cannon!" he yells out the name of Nemo's trick and his cheeks bulge as he takes in a huge breath. He lets open his mouth to release a massive spray of water, and spins rapidly in his standing place. The water douses the fire, and the water retracts and sticks to the green shield, cancelling out the fire and lightning bolts. (Fire is doused by water, lightning is absorbed by water.)

The green shield surrounding the warrior now pulses with electrically charged water, which begins falling upon the massive sheets of ice. As electricity runs through the attack, the ice begins melting, until met with a green lightning bold straight from the shield. The shield dissapears, it's power put into the bolt. The bolt hits the ice and causes the white mass the combust into harmless rain.

Z's eyes turn from green to purple, and he surveys the area. Smiling, he vanishes from sight.

Chibi, who had been paying attention while combating his hunger, soon found him self keeling over as his starving stomach was met with a blow from Z's knee. Chibi tries to throw out a punch, but Z vanishes before the chance is found.

As Chibi's fist travels meaninglessly through the air, Z reappears behind him and throws and arm around his neck, and grabs his wrist with his other hand. He pulls Chibi's wrist backward and high up into the air, and Chibi feels the crackling of bones in his shoulder.

 

"You made two costly and completely wrong assumptions a moment ago without even noticing." comes a menacing whisper in his ear. Z kicks backward into The Knight of Abyss's gut, shattering the metal plating covering the section, as The Knight comes up behind him sword drawn.

"The first, was that I could only see in one dimension of site." Z continues and yanks his prisoner's arm higher into the air. Chibi yelps out as his legs buckle beneath him from the pain. Z lets go of the wrist and Chibi drops his arms to his side, not even trying to stop himself from being choked, as he knew this was not the wizard's plan. "I could see your cloaked body easier than the sun on a bright day." He holds his prize by the neck directly out in front of him and begins gathering energy in his empty hand.

"And quite possibly your most costly mistake..." Z continues, "was the assumption that wizards don't know how to fight." Chibi can sense the dramatic increase in his captor's power level, but the restraining hold on his neck prevents him from fighting back.

Z turns his head around to look at another enemy. "I wouldn't move another step closer if you value your own head." Z's arm explodes into a purple mass of energy and he points the arm, his free one, at the one trying to sneak up behind him. "I don't have to use this attack on him you know. And if you were to come closer, I could use this one on you, and an even stronger one on your boss only seconds later. You know, I might even spare your life if you don't interfere." He turns back to Chibi.

 

"And that assumption is the one that will cost you your life." Z brings the elbow of his free arm down directly into Chibi's spine and knocks him out cold. He tosses The Assassing into the air, spinning around. Z brings his glowing arm forward, and connects his other, now free, arm to the upper part of the glowing one.

"FINAL BREATH" Comes the shout from the wizard, and out from his arm fires a massive magenta beam, that breaks through the crumbled streets and flies through the sewers. Above the main concentrated area of attack, the magenta mass soars 20 feet into the air, and curves over and away from it's beholder. The perfectly circle wave moves across the city at a terrifyingly rapid speed, destroying everything in its path.

Despite the fastness of the attack, Yoshindo barely finds the time to pick up a nearby rope, lassoo Karmis around the neck, and pull him just millimeters out of the way before being plumeted, and Frieza has just enough time to dive through a sewer drain, dropping him deeper below the city, but out of harm's way.

Z pulls up his arm attached to his other's upper part and points to the sky, obediently the beam rises into the air, and continues harmlessly into space as Z finishes the attack.

 

(So tired...can't write...)

Frieza pried himself from the crater in the wall. The stone had been weakened by the violent explosions of battle overhead, but his face still hurt like hell. To add insult to injury, the blasted Assassin's friends had managed to revive him.

Frieza: Damnit! That's the last time you catch me showing ANY mercy to these people!

In the corner of his mind, he noticed a battle taking place above. At first, he assumed it to be Nemo, returned from wherever he'd been. However, there were more pressing matters to consentrate on, and he didn't care to look very deeply at it. Later, he would notice that the energy signature was not his friend, but a new warrior. A wizard, it seemed, but Frieza didn't allow the implications of this new development to enter his mind. It appeared to be fighting for him, and that was enough for now.

The cosmic prince looked up and beheld Para, rocket launcher in hand, dividing his attention between Frieza and the other battle. He started to fall back, but his leg was caught from under ground by a tail. It drags his down through the street, only to swing him back up, rolling across the pavement. Para quickly finds his balance and seizes it. He rises face to face with his enemy.

Frieza: Quite a toy you have there. I mistook the whistling for some sort of animal.

(Grr…no time to attack...just hold on)

 

Chibi stares at Z angrily. "Hacker, Mazauron, Caitlyne! Get in the Safety Wall. It's time to pull off the big guns." He orders. He closes his eyes and begins chanting. "Darkness beyond twilight, crimson blood that flow, buried in the flow of time..." A sparking red energy ball forms in his hands. "In thy great name I pledge myself to DARKNESS!" The ball grows. "Let those who oppose us be destroyed by the power you and I posses!" The ball gleams with the energy of the Dark Lord Shabrigado. "DRAGON SLAVE!" He yells, firing off a crimson beam towards Z.

 

"Well I do make things. My whole body was even constructed by myself." Para laughed slightly as he stretched his arm a bit.

"Quite the suit. It's a great tool for victory against my enemies." Para laughed again. He tossed the redeemer to a roving spider bot, jumped back, and ripped out his dual bladed beam saber. He made a motion for the prince to attack.

 

Chibi holds the beam with one hand, and reaches into his pocket. "How stupid of me..." He says, pulling the Sword of Light out of his pocket. "I forgot the amplifier!" The blade floats in front of the Dragon Slave, amplifying the attack 3x.

 

Maxim walks to the gate of Metro City, memories filling his mind

" Haven't been here in a long time. Am I still welcomed here? "

Maxim hears the sounds of battle, & his heroic instinct tells him to investigate-

-He sees the battle between Chibi Shadow's team and Z from a distance-

The Dragon Glaive beam was still in the air while Maxim tackled Z out of it's path- the beam just barely drazed Maxim's head

" Dark energy- very unhealthy you know!!!!! "

Maxim forgot about the beam and it hit a building, exploded and sent Maxim flying forward - Z had gotten out of the way while Maxim was jabbering-

So he flew toward Chibi , and while in the air unsheathed the SV saber, and with one quick slash, striked chibi with his Lightsaber- Chibi was too strong to be killed in one hit though, so maxim rolled on the ground and jumped backward-

 

OOC: Point 1) Nemo - That was a good attack. Though its form is simple (an energy blast, when you sum it up), you were very descriptive with it. I defiantly see improvement. However, I caution you not to be so controlling with Chibi next time. When I grabbed him, he had admitted to being half dead and unable to stop me. And although Z could have used enough power to restrain him, you didn't explain why Chibi didn't break the hold very much...or maybe you did an I just wasn't paying attention. Still, be careful.

Point 2) Chibi - If you're going to do this, please have the decency to read every attack. It really isn't that long.

Para - What does your character look like? How much of him is metal? Is he completely robotic?
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The sky shone with dire anticipation upon the erupting city. The clouds had thickened, but at the same time were being forced away by the many explosions below. Golden sunlight found its way through thin patches. And yet, it seemed far darker than when they'd started.

A scarlet disk, frayed ends swirling around its focus, manifests itself above Frieza's hand. He clasps it tightly, refining it into a sword with a whirling blade. He hefted it gracefully into place, striking a defensive stance. He met his opponent's gaze with an arrogant smile. Each agreed.

There would be blood.

Frieza took the initiative and charged. Para blocked a sudden diagonal slash, and parried with the other blade of his saber. Frieza ducked and rose with an upward sweep. It was met with empty space as Para jumped back, then forward with another attack. Sparks of energy leapt across the ground as blade meets blade. This continues for a time without any damage dealt, each testing the other. In the corner of his eye, Para catches sight of a heavy chunk of building, descending toward the crown of his head, no doubt loosened by Frieza telekinetically. He spins his dual bladed beam saber, somehow managing to stop the block and block another attempt by Frieza's sword. However, this offered just enough time to get a fist in. A swift blow to the jaw was delivered, cracking bone, leaking a trickle of blood down his chin. It was followed up with a swift but forceful kick to the ribs, propelling the cyborg backward, landing a fire hydrant in the small of his back.

 

OOC: Uhh... I was sleepy at the time, and thought I was going to forget... Oops.

Chibi pokes at where he was slashed. "You.. You hurt my Ninja Suit..." He said. "Killed so many to just have it broken!" He yelled loudly. "Lord of the Darkness and Four Worlds, I beseech thy fragments" he says, a ball of dark energy forms in his hands "by all of the power thou possesseth, grant the heavens' wrath to my hand" The energy sharpebs into a sword "unleash the sword of dark, freezing nothingness" The dark blade grows" "by our power, our combined might, let us walk as one along the path of destruction: RAGNA BLADE!" The blade fires at Maxim, in a beam style. "Feel the wrath of my most powerful attack, not banned by law!" He yells.

 

Karmis watches the battle, bored. "After this attack, the battle's gonna be completely one-sided." He tosses his shirt, eager to fight. "Bah...Do Giga Slave! Gi-ga Slave! Gi-ga Slave! Gi-ga Slave! Gi-ga Slave! Gi-ga Slave! Gi-ga Slave!" He continued chanting, as he either wanted to fight or wanted the fight to end.

 

200. Yay.

In response to Frieza's last post:

1)Thanks, I've been working on that.

2) Yeah I know... I was a little too controlling that time, usually I try not to be at all unless it's benifiting the other person.

3) There basically wasn't anything restraining him, except for my hold the first part. After that about the only thing holding him back was his shoulder being ripped out its socket, but I hadn't put forward an attack the post before that, so I wanted to pull off a big one that time.

And to Chibi:

That last post of yours... I don't know if that was aimed toward me or Frieza because it involved Chibi, but he should have been blasted across the city and possibly dead, but it was mostly stuff that Para would have done. So I won't post another attack til that's cleared up.

 

OOC: Fully robotic. The most metal is at his boots, his waist and chest, his hands, and helmet. His legs and arms are in a black coversuit. Black hair falls down to half his back. His visor his full blue(By visor I mean glass covering over his face). The to of the helmet has a gold stripe in the middle. If you want more description, just ask. While he can't bleed, the armor can dent. The only actual organic part of his body is in the very center.

Para smirked under his visor as he jumped backwards. As he was at the peak of his jump, he left boosters kicked in and he rocketed up two stories.

"Interesting." Para commented. He pulled his blade above him and span it slowly like a helicopter blade.

"Let's see how you deal with this." His laugh came out with the hint of metal grinding against metal. The sword began to spin at exactly that of a copter's blade. The beams that were originally a normal sword's length sprout out into long ten-foot blades. He ripped the spinning blades down into a vertical slash and let the loose. They were falling at a diagonal path, aiming directly for the prince. His leg jets deactivated. His buster gun aimed at Frieza and he began to charge energy. The spinning green blades of death were getting closer, and a gun pointed to the prince made the movement no easier.

 

((OoC: Too... much... reading. Must try... and understand...))

**Yoshindo stands in awe at the battle the has ensued between all the fighter. He stops staring as he sense another person coming towards them.**

**Meanwhile, Beamer has entered the city and is looking at all the mass destrcution around him. Then he starts thinking...**

BEAMER: I wonder if the candy store is opened...

 

Z looks around. With Maxim currently taking care of Chibi, he was only left with his henchmen, who he didn't think would pose much of a problem.

He turned around away from the giant hole in the city, and found himself facing his enemies. "Well you guys certainly are on task now are you." He said and they began advancing, spreading into a flank position. Z vanished from their sight, and they all instinctively took defensive stances. Z appeared behind Caitlyne and put her in a half nelson (for those who don't know what that is, I have one hand on her neck with that arm twisted around and immobilizing one of her other arms. My other arm/hand is free.), and before the others could react, dissapeared with his hostage.

They glanced around, not taking long to find the wizard on a large hunk of crubled building, his arm again exploding in purple energy.
~~~~~~~
Ugh... I'm feelin' pretty sick now so I'll finish this later. Don't do anything to stop what's going on with this, nothin's going to happen really.

 

Still not feelin' much better now, but I'm gonna finish that post.
~~~~~
Z held his hostage close, pressing his energized free arm against her back. Z was bluffing, he didn't really have another one of those attacks up his sleeve, but if he could stall the group before him long enough, he would have enough energy.

"If you value your friend's life, don't take another step closer." Z was interested in other matters than killing her at the moment, but this would buy him a little time. His most important matter, was what the hell was taking Nemo so long. This took his mind off the predicament at hand, and, calling Z's bluff, Caitlyne shoved her elbow into his gut, and he fell backward off his makeshift podium.

Caitlyne jumped off forward toward her comrads, and they ran around to attack Z, who, not to their surprise, had vanished again. He reappeared in the spot they had just been standing at, and had abandoned trying to gain enough strength for another Final Breath. He stood straight, not seeming to have taken more than a shock from the blow to his stomach.

"Z!" Came a sudden telepathic transmission. "I have the sphere," It was Nemo, "and I'm teleporting off the moon right now." Nemo finished. Z was just about to cut off his air when came one last sentence: "You're sure he's on Richon?"

"Yes." Z replied, and felt Nemo dissapear from his distant standing point. He cut off his magic from the moon. "You know, I wasn't really going to hurt you guys very much." Z started, feeling his power grow as he received energy from his home. "But now that you've just pissed me off..." He continued with emphasis on the last three words, "I think I may have to change that."

Z's staff appeared in front of him and he grasped hold of the handle. He held it behind him, his free hand forward, and the a green glow began showing at the tip of the rod. "Demon Firefly!" Z threw his back hand forward, pointing the staff at the crew before him, and green explosion fired out from the tip of his staff, revealing a portal. And through the portal flew a hundred green fireflies the size of Z's head. The fireflies were made entirely of green energy, with small wings sticking out of the sides flapping at a rapid speed and appearing to be just a green triangle bulging out. The fireflies flew forward toward Chibi's men, and began swerving maniacly, making it impossible to follow just one.

"Let's see you guys get out of this one."

 

The ghostly Doppleganger showed up, upon his summoning finishing.

Doppleganger: "You think you can trap a ghost in a block of ice?" He asks, drawing his sword. "You better watch out, I'm the fastest Knight alive or dead." He smirks, prepares to help his summoner and party. "Then again... They're demons, correct? Well... Have a bit of holy powers! Sandrine, use Sanctuary!" He yelled.

Sandrine: "Blessings of the heavens! Sanctuary!" She casts a barier around the party, leaving Doppleganger to fight Z and the Demon Fireflys.

Doppleganger: "I am Doppleganger! Second in command to the Knight of Abyss! Feel the wrath of the dead!" He says, slashing at a few Fireflys.

 

Had there been time to express emotions, Frieza would have closed his eyes, hung his head, and shook it slowly. But since there wasn't, he simply put one hand forward. He focused on his attackers. The blades had no mass (well, almost no mass, if you want to get into quantum physics). There was only the hilt. With this in mind, his course of action became obvious.

Syougekiha!

An invisible force exploded from between the approaching weapons, altering their course. The blades spun wildly, landing at the haughty emperor’s either side, slicing through the ground and eventually coming to rest. The force Para had put behind the swords was strong, but ultimately their low inertia rendered them ineffective.

But the threat was not over, as the mass of energy gathering in the Buster Rifle above demonstrated. Frieza got the sinking feeling that he shouldn’t dodge this. It might cause more damage to the city than he was willing to allow at the moment. But then again, there was no sense in allowing Para to charge any more than necessary. So, converting the energy in his sword into pure energy, then summoning as much power as he could in the time he allowed himself, he formed an aura of ki around himself which would act as a barrier, and leapt straight for him, prepared to meet the blast head first (or even better, hit him before he got the shot off).

 

XRAMMSTIENX) SolidSnake: Well lets see energy beams and buster rifles and all I have is an M-9......I got an idea RAIDEN!!!

Raiden: Yeah

Snake: Go try to kill someone alright???

Raiden: How? They're all flying.

Snake: Uhhh Well you can to In this magical land...hehehehe

Raiden: Okay! *jumps off building* YOU LLIIAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR......

Snake: Uh....oops?

 

"What in the heck do you think I cared about the ice? It was a temporary solution. I knew you'd break out of it eventually." Z told Dobbledanger as he swiped at a Demon Firefly. The Firefly split into two, allowing the sword to pass between the two parts, and rejoined again floating in front of Dobbledanger. "And that's not going to work." The Firefly flew directly at Dobbledanger's face and exploded in a green poison gas.

 

Doppleganger smiles. "Oh I've been out sice you tried that trick. I've just been enjoying the show." He says. The poison has no effect on him. "THink poison works against the dead? You think wrong." He says, holding out his hand. "Reaper of souls, lend my thy power! Soul Strike!" He chants, firing 5 spirits to attack very quickly.

 

Para jumped back from the charging prince. His buster was still charging as he quickly took a side step. He held the gun into the air, and it reformed into his fist. The only question was, where did the rest of the stored energy go? His body was slightly tinted with an aura of energy. He held out his hand, the sword returning to him due to a directed megantic beam. He put the blade on the side of his waist. He jet boosters activated as he rocketed ontop of a nearby building. Para laughed coldly and began to motion his hand in a juggling motion. Energy soon began to fly between the hands, picking up more protons from the air, filtering, and repeating.

 

**Beamer has walked for enough to where Para comes into his view. He decides to fly over to the villain, who sees is "juggling" something powerful. He taps Para on the shoulder trying to get his attention.**

BEAMER; to Para: Excuse me, mister. Do you know if the candy store is still open?

 

"Meh, poison usually doesn't have an affect. Just seeing if the easy way out would work on you." Z says, he points out his staff and a small yellow glow explodes at the tip, turning all the Fireflies from green to yellow. Five, each taking a different spirit of Dobbledanger's, envelop them selves around their spirit and close. "Your spirits won't be able to escape from those. It's like they're trapped in another dimension, no way out once the door is closed, except to reopen the door. Which only I have control of." Z explains, and points his staff forward again, this time a small orange glow erupts from the tip and the Fireflies, all but the five preoccupied with the spirits, turn into all different colors. Some turn blue, some red, some purple, some black, some white, and some gold. "So many uses, so much ammunition."

Dobbledanger looks around at the display of dim lights in front of him, obviously not ammused. Z reaches into his back pocket, grasping hold of the item that would most likely shatter this creature's skull. Z holds it behind him in a throwing position, still casting an antiweight spell. "Hey ugly!" He calls, grabbing the attention of Dobbledanger. He brings back the super dense mass of shattered meteor back, and chucks it with deadly aim and deadly speed at the beast's head, leaving Dobbledanger only milliseconds before the rock would slam into his face, and litterally smash his brains.

(OOC: That's the rock that was saved from the double Lord of Vermillion attack, it has the mass of all 40 of your meteors crammed into a sphere-shaped rock about the size of a baseball. So... you can imagine how dense it is.

 

Doppleganger* only laughs. "And you think that will hurt a ghost?" He says. The meteor fragment only passes through him. "This is why I am the lone guard of the top of Geffen Tower. No physical can hurt me, my speed can evade even 20 wizards' Lord of Vermillions! I AM THE LORD OF THE UNDEAD! Fear me!" He yells. "Ready for the quickest spell around? NAPALM BEAT!" He says, firing immensely fast speeded magic attacks at Z and the fireflys.

*It's DOPPLEGANGER, not Dobbleganger.

 

Chibi coughs. The Ragna Blade is still firing from his hands. He adds a bit more power in impatientce.

(OOC: ... This isn't going anywhere is it?)

 

OOC: PICKING UP PROTONS FROM THE AIR!?!??! I believe that's called nuclear fusion, and every time you did it, it would cause some kind of explosion...ah, but what do I know? It doesn't matter anyway.

IC:

Para's metallic laughter hung over the city like a plague. Beneath his feet, the world quaked in fear. Was it the tremors from the stored Vermillion, or did the planet's very spirit quiver under his threat?

This day's battle was Para's doing. All the pain and loss that would ensue was his fault. And it wouldn't be the first time. Too often had he burdened the people of Metro with the destruction and devastation of war. Too often had the city been restored, only to fall again. And too often had Para escaped unpunished. But now, with the city in its final hours, with its people lost in the mists of debris and time, one last battle would be fought. Honor would be decided. Revenge would be justly served.

Frieza would see to it.

Para turned and began gathering protons, feeling smugly proud of what he had in store for this fighter. However, something in front of him forced a change in attitude. Something greatly unnerving.

The lack of Frieza.

He surveyed the landscape again in an instant, but found no sign of life. A sudden chilling tap on his shoulder made him jump. Quickly he turned, his hands ready to fire the attack.

BEAMER: Excuse me mister, do you know if the candy store is still open?

Para almost did an anime fall off the side of the building. Before Para could explain his present dilemma...or just smack the guy, he pointed over the robot's shoulder and said something a bit odd. The cryptic remark took a moment to register.

"LOOK OUT!!!"

He turned too late to avoid the 4 foot wide yellow beam that smacked into his face, blasting him off the building and into another one. Seconds after his entrance, it exploded. Dust wafted skyward as debris soared in all directions. The unfortunate Beamer had also been caught up in the beam, but had managed to push himself off and land on the hard street below. When he awoke, however, he found a lollypop resting beside him as thanks for his distraction.

Para rose from the debris, beads of melted metal dripping from his head and upper chest. His visor had small craters where the material had bubbled off. Rock and dirt clung to his smoking frame.

The impact hadn't caused much damage, but a thought occurred: Had he lost the energy he was gathering? His systems began checking. They found something foreign attached to his arm.

It was a hand.

The hand brought him up from within the pile of stones, and continued bringing him up until he found himself approaching the sky.

Frieza tossed Para flailingly upward, the spin on his body preventing his boosters from regaining control too quickly. The ascending robot was met with a crackling ball of lightning as it emerged from the hanging canopy of dust and clouds.

Below, Frieza moved out from underneath him, watching his movements very carefully.

 

With almost no time to react, Z decides against using his Fireflies to help him avoid the oncoming attacks. Z's arms glow white, and eight small white orbs appear around each of his arms. Running backward as fast as he can, the wizard points his hands forward and shoots all sixteen orbs rapidly off his arms like a machine gun firing bullets. ***With deadly accuracy, his orbs meet their assigned attack of Doppledanger's, absorb their energy, and explode in a brilliant fireworks display.***

Z stops moving back and, with a comanding throught, all his Fireflies turn yellow. The yellow Fireflies all fly at doppledanger. With another thought Z stops the fireflies, and they all fly to a spot about 20 feet from their target, and get absorbed into one yellow mass. The mass charges Doppledanger and begins enveloping him, to trap him inside a never-opening magic tomb.

"Let's see you escape from this prison!" Z as his mass begins joining at the back.

***I don't know how many attacks were fired, since it wasn't specified, but more orbs could have been created at the same rate they were being fired, even if it would require more than one for each of your attacks, so all your attacks could have been cancelled out anyway.***

 

Doppleganger sighs. "Just like how those wizards trapped me in Geffen Tower... God damn I hate this." He said. "Then again... I see another one of our summons is coming..."

The Moonlight Flower, a girl who appears to be in her teens swiftly walks in the city boundries wearing Fox-skin clothes carrying a sharp stick. She is followed by many Kitsune. "Well looks like Big Brother is out. Looks like it's Moonlight's turn." She said, hopping to where the mass is.

 

Para just smiled. The orbs had already done their job. It had little to do with himself. His armor slowly began to crack as he bounced up from the electric energy and high into the air. His boosters finaly kicked into control as he hovered high over the city. His sensors would never be able to pick up the intense pain that should be running through his body.

"Tell me, oh prince, which do you perfer more? The demon or the jester?"

 

Z stood breathing heavily, sizing up his next opponent. He wasn't sure how to attack this one, with a great deal of his magic power depleted, and especially with all the kitsune. He thought just going all out with regular fighting techniques might be the best way, using spells as needed. He got into a fighting stance, took a deep breath in, and was just about to charge ahead when a message came through to him telepathically:

"Z! It's Nemo! I got Tan, and we're just about to teleport to you now."

"And you have the Sphere?"

"Um... yeah..."

Z smiled. His troubles were over. Z stood up straight, and the two porcupines appeared just a couple feet front of him. Nemo stood up straight, along with the newcomer, Tan. Tan had the same body complex as Nemo, but with a gold body and black spikes and hair rather than vis versa like his counterpart. Nemo held the item he had been searching for in front of him, a sphere with swirling gold and black inside it.

"Can I borrow that?" Asked Z refering the object in his friend's hands.

"Hm?" Nemo turned around. "Oh sure." He tossed it to the wizard.

Z held it straight above his head. "NEMOTAN REVIVAL!!!" He yelled, a shower of sparks flew out as a lightningbolt shot down into the Sphere. Z became enveloped in a white aura, his power level soaring above its current standpoint. As the move ended, all the fighters noticed his power back to the same point it had been when the wizard had appeared on the battlefield.

He smiled and looked straing forward to Moonlight and her kitsune. "I'll hold onto this for you guys." Z said, the Sphere vanishing. He was totally confident now that the trio could destroy their new enemy.

 

**Beamer sees the lollypop and grabs it. In less than a second, the pop is nothing more than a stick. He tosses stick into a now totaled trash bin, continues on his search for the answers to his question: Is the candy store still open? He spots Frieza and flies over to him, tugging on his tail to get his attention.**

BEAMER; to Frieza: Hey, Mister. Do you know if the candy store is still open?

**Before giving Frieza the chance to respond in his own way, he hears Para giving Frieza a choice.**

BEAMER; waving arms frantically and shouting: Oh, oh! Pick the Jester! Jester are funny and cool and... **continues rambling.**

 

Moonlight chuckles. "You're comparing my difficulty to Big Brother's? I'm much faster than him, and my kitsune have the power 1/8 of mine. I'm that fastest moving monster around." She gloats. Her kitsunes stare at Nemo, Tan, and Z. They look a bit worried. "Don't worry babies, well do ok because Great-Granpa Osiris will be here pretty soon." She says, comforting the Kitsune.

------------------------------------------------------------

About 10 miles outside the city, the purple mummy wearing a crown stands in the view. "Looks like Moonlight is up. I'll quicken the pace a bit." He says, using Speed Up.

------------------------------------------------------------

Chibi cannot see Maxim anymore, so he thinks he's dead. "Well that was easy. Didn't have to use the Giga Slave." He says. "Well better watch the new fight." He floats over into the Sactuary, healing a little, ready to watch Moonlight's fight. "Where's the popcorn?"

 

Karmis looks deeply enveloped in thought. All of a sudden, he bursts out laughing. "HAHAHAHA!!!! Oh, Para as a girl! What bliss occurs at midnight! .....Then again, I guess the ballerina costume wouldn't be as funny...." He realized that the fights were still occurring. He yawned, and began to ramble. "My word, what pathetic fighters roam this city now. I remember when it was more than flashy lights and such. It seems like an episode of Dragonball Z nowadays." He points to Beamer. "I mean, look at that. Who'd let such a mutilated child to a scene of a battle? And this Frieza. Pseesh. If I were to fight from the beginning, this would be over now. Even Para and Chibs are a lot weaker than I recall. Probably because the lack of challenge. I say, the only threat seems to be that wizard, really." He continued to rant about how easy he could defeat everyone to anyone who lent an ear.

 

Chibi turns to Karmis. "If I used the Giga Slave this would already be over... But let's enjoy the show. Come on in the wall! I'm got popcorn! And string!" He says to Karmy.

 

Karmis starts to walk over. "Why do you want to prolong this? It's pointless. Like I said, the main threat is the wizard. Other than that, garbage. And then, Para. He hasn't fought very much, and he's not sending out hordes of minions to kill the opposition. This is so dull." Seeing how he didn't really expect anyone to attack him, Karmis' weapons were still back where 'Shindo was.

 

Finsihing a gulp of popcorn... "Well... You see... If I messed up the Giga Slave... Nothing would exist. At least if I used the Sword of Light. Without it, one shot destroys the whole city, and surrounding areas for about 100 miles." He says.

 

Nemo, Tan and Z stood facing their opponents, smirking. "I get her!" Tan and Nemo both said at the same time, refering to Moonight.

"No you don't. I do." Z stepped in. Tan spun around to protest, but Z was quick to explain: "You two are much faster than I, therefore you shouldn't have much trouble with the kitsune. And when you're finished, I'll most likely still be handling her, so you can help me." Tan opened his mouth to argue, but then shut it because he knew he wouldn't get anywhere in an arguement with Z.

"Fair enough." Nemo said. Tan faced forward again, standing next to his counterpart. Z flew forward a little, then stopped. The kitsune got into defensive stances at the movement, unsure as to what was going to happen.

Behind the wizard, the two porcupines began transforming. Effortlessly, they morphed into their ghost forms, Nemo's spikes turning blue, Tan's green.

Moonlight began laughing, "YOU LOOK LIKE A MANGO! AHAHAHAHAHA!" She pointed at Tan, leaning over and grabbing her stomach. Tan, who did look like a mango with a gold body and green hair, gave her a "don't **** with me" look. She stood up, and, meeting his glare, responded with an "I don't give a ****" look.

"Enough..." Tan interupted. "May we start?" he said putting his arms straight out to his sides. Nemo and Tan both took identical, yet opposite of eachother, stances. Their bodies were perfectly synchronized; perfectly aligned; perfectly mirrored off of eachother. If it hadn't been for their unmatching colors, a passerby could have easily mistaken them for one person standing next to a large mirror.

 

Moonlight still chuckling a little about Tan's "Mangoness" points twoards Nemo & Tan. "Kitsune! Attack!" She orders. The Kitsune rush towards the porcupine duo, and jump up, all nine tails streched out, like a lightning bolt with sharp teeth. Moonlight on the other hand speeds behind Z, taps his shoulder, and flips over him, attempting an attack with her staff.

Outside the city about 5 miles away. "Battle has begun, I see." Osiris mumbles to himself, continuing his march to Metro City.

 

As drunkenly as it was presented, Karmis has a point. So far, all that's really been done is punching, kicking, and throwing flashy energy attacks with varying names. The Lord of Vermillion was the only thing close to interesting, and that's not enough to cut it. Someone has to take the initiative and step this battle up to the next phase.

Maybe you haven't noticed, but I haven't taken a scrap of damage through this whole battle (and maybe Nemo, I'm not going to check). I bring this up not to say "My character is stronger than you", but rather to point out "You're not even trying".

I'm not ashamed to say that Karmis' comment greatly offended me. You think Z is the only threat to you? Sir, if you think THAT (referring to my latest few posts) nonsense is all I'm capable of, then you are sadly mistaken. I don't know how battles run here, but I'm from VGS. There, description = power, and creativity counts highly. I've gone toe to toe with some of the greatest writers and sim battlers on the net, and I get very ticked when you cast me off as harmless in comparison to Nemo (not to insult you Nemo, you're defiantly improving, and are much better than most writers I've met with your experience, but trust me, you're nowhere close to me).

I don't mean to take a superior tone with you. You're all respected RPers, and I'm sure there's a good reason for it. I'm not saying I'm better than you, I'm saying you need to kick it up a notch. Nearly every post made so far is something I would consider an opener, or a second/third attack. Why don't I take it upon my self to do something I would call a worth attack, and show some of this skill I've been referring to? Well, you may think it strange, but I write in direct respect to what I'm given. In other words, if my opponent is good, I'm good. However, if my opponent is stuck in the exchange of simple attacks as we are, then that is where I will stay. I find it very difficult to do otherwise.

Chibi, you mentioned being able to end this all with one move, Gigaslave. It can destroy a city? So what? I could just as easily say "Frieza blows up the planet and everybody dies. The end", but that doesn't make it a good attack. You could destroy the whole of creation if you used the Sword of Light in conjunction with this?...gee, I don't care where you're from, that's PGing no matter how you use it, and probably shouldn't have been brought up at all.

Again, I don't mean to sound arrogant or pissy, but when people starts saying "I could end this with one move" to two strong opponents, each of whom have put forth more time and effort into their posts than any of you, I take it personally. Furthermore, Karmis is right. This is not only boring, but is utterly a waste of time. Writing this is becoming like trudging through tar. I'm not enjoying it, and you're not giving me any reason to.

Therefore, one of the following must happen if this battle is to continue:

1) Ace and Sub come in and hopefully can intensify it (I don't mean to exclude you Trunks, if you're reading this, but I've never seen you fight, and couldn't judge if it would be enough to save this).

2) You hit me (or everyone) with a creative, well thought out, well written attack that sparks my interest. Destroy the city if you must, that won't end the battle. Just make it good.

If we can't supply this, I'll level the city myself and call it a day.

(sigh). I haven't burst out like this in a long time. Forgive my angry yellings, and don't be offended. If you know in your heart that you can do better than what I've seen, you have no need to feel insulted.

 

I'm just waiting for you to pick which one. That's when my attack actually begins.

 

Chibi slowly stands up. "You know... Screw existance. If I fail, Karmis can use his little gem and freeze time, and then seal me somewhere." He says without emotion. The silver haired Assassin walks out from the barrier and faces Moonlight. "Warrior Moonlight, commander of the Payon branch, stand down. We're using the big guns." He commands. The little kitsune girl heads into the barrier, and the kistune disappear just as they were about to hit Nemo and Tan. "Ready for the forbidden spell, the Giga Slave?" He asks, not expecting an answer. "Ray wing." He mutters, slowly floating to the sky. From his pocket he pulls out a sword's hilt. "Light! Come forth!" He yells, as a white energy blade shoots out of the hilt. "Darkness beyond blackest pitch, deeper than the deepest night! Lord of Darkness, shining like gold upon the Sea of Chaos, I call upon thee, swear myself to thee! Let the fools who stand before us be destroyed by the power you and I possess!" He chants. Bolts of black lightning surrounded by light blue pulses strike down. A large mass of energy gathers from the ground, towards the Sword of Light. The white energy blade slowly turns grey. Several black lightning bolt hit the sword in a dark flash. The sword is now completely black. With the power pulsing through the sword of light, Chibi holds the blade down, switches it behind his back, and the straight up. "GIGA... SLAVE!!" He yells as the energy starts flying off into space. He slowly brings it towards the defence. "Don't try anything funny. If I drop this thing, we're all dead." He assures them.

(OOC: There, Karmis. Happy? I used the Giga Slave.)

 

...and I get very ticked when you cast me off as harmless in comparison to Nemo (not to insult you Nemo, you're defiantly improving, and are much better than most writers I've met with your experience, but trust me, you're nowhere close to me).

First, no offense taken AT ALL.

Second, thanks!

Third, I know you're a better writer than me, I've seen it in your fight against Ace.

Fourth... forgot what number four was... anyway, I'll post an attack after I eat dinner and do homework. So... like maybe 630 to 7 (my time, don't know what that is GFs time. It's 530 here now.) I'll have it up.

 

Chibi hovered high above the city, struggling to keep the Sword of Light straight (or moving exactly how it's supposed to, I'm not sure which.). From his side came a voice, yelling: "TIME…" A foot came pounding into his jaw; the Sword fell out of his hands and he was thrown violently away from his Giga Slave.

"FREEZE!" Z finished his sentence. As the reaction occurred from the letting go of the Sword of Light, Nemo and Tan teleported off the planet, unsure of what power was behind the attack. Z followed suite during his short period of everything about him being in a stage suspended animation, but only after flying down to grab Frieza and Maxim.

On the moon of Richon, Nemo and Tan held their breath for a split second while waiting for Z to come and use his magic to provide them with air. The three appeared, and, upon their arrival, Frieza threw a punch at Z, not realizing what he was doing because he only had such little time to react from being teleported. Z caught the punch, expecting it to come, as Maxim put his buster up to the back of Z's head for the same reason. Though he quickly came to his senses and lowered it.

(OOC: FR- I think you're a Megaman base, but correct me if I'm wrong.

Chibi- Me totally screwing up your attack shouldn't cause it to basically destroy the entire universe. That, I don't care what you say, is PGing. No attack could possibly be that strong, especially if it took so little time to prepare. I understand the Giga Slave has the power to destroy the city, and I guess I can live with that… though it apparently doesn't take much time to get it ready.)

 

(OOC: The reason it's being so slow is because I have absolutely no understanding of the Lord of Nightmares/Have read the Clair Bible.
Directly from a Slayers site:

Like Ragna Blade, spell which calls on the power of the Lord of Nightmares (Golden Demon Lord). Its power is so great that it cannot even be compared to Dragon Slave; when Lina tested this spell she turned a beach into a bay of death. By casting this spell on the Sword of Light, Lina has defeated Rezo Shabranigdu. This is Lina's most powerful spell, but because it brings the source of nothingness into the world, she has sealed the spell.

And quote the Final Episodes of Slayers Orignal: "You don't know how horrible a spell like the Giga Slave is!" -Sylfiel "What? Because we'll all be killed is used improperly?" -Lina "No. You don't understand. If the Giga Slave fails, all of existance!" -Sylfiel "Come on Lina, use your Giga Slave." -Rezo

So then umm... See mine isn't quite strong enough to negate existance, more like a continent with the Giga Slave failing. But if a mage/wizard used it... Death. @_@; (Wow that's a lot of OOCness!))

 

(OOC: Erm...Yes, Giga Slave is good, but there is one problem....)

"W-W-WAIT!!!!! I can't use a gem! S-See....I kinda transform gems. A magician can use it, but there are side effects. It can create a void, causing the city to basically collapse. Or something. I think a reality gem may cancel that out, maybe a teleport gem would minimize the damage. Any of your friends able to harness the power of the gem?" Karmis worryingly asked.

 

Whole group (besides Moonlight): "Oh yes. We can." They say in unison. "As long as we trap the screwed up Giga Slave, it should be good."

 

((OOC: Now just to wait 'till friezza posts the answer so I can kick up the full blow attack))

 

Well Chib, the physics behind it were kind of interesting (though unrealistic to my world), and it's a creative idea, but I don't think the attack is really worth the power you put behind it.

My conserns are still unaddressed, but I'm willing to ride this a bit longer. I'll give Para a chance to show his stuff, and see what develops.

I'll post later. We're in for some dialogue now.

 

Well I'm glad yours insn't that strong, but still...

 

(OOC: Oh yes, I forgot in my mass of OOCness, that using the Giga Slave severly exhausts the user, and since it's so hard for me to control...)

 

OOC: Don't worry about it Chib. You haven't actually done anything, it's just that saying your attack has the potential to destroy everything seems...over zealous, shall we say? But again, it ok. We’ll let it go.

High in the desolate sky, Para hung with an arrogant grin, eager to show his hand. He looked with satisfaction at how this was turning out. The land below was dead. No life dared show itself, save the small band of impudent fools that had been dogging him and his allies for the past half hour. Small fires ignited from the destroyed buildings, sparked from the many flammable particles in the air, maintained by the broken gas lines still supplying the abandoned land. Anxiously, he awaited a response to the choice he’d given. A coarse wind drifted through his sleek black hair. A choking cloud passed around him.

Frieza was feeling pleased with himself. As he’d expected, the lightning produced no visible effect on Para. “Robots. So predictable” he thought.

“My, how very courteous of you to give me a choice.” He shouted at the gray mist torpidly swimming about his foe.

Uh…to be continued in…3 hours?

 

“My, how very courteous of you to give me a choice.” He shouted at the gray mist torpidly swimming about his foe, a hint of Sarcasm in his voice. “Well, unless the Jester’s element happens to be holy, I suppose I’ll go with the Demon.”

Para smirked, and began to manifest the energy he’d gathered. But from the clouded beyond came an omnipotent crackle of energy, and a horrible burst of light. Each turned to see streaks of power rising into space from one point. Para recognized immediately, and prepared a counter measure. Frieza began a defense, but before he could fully understand the magnitude of what was happening, his world vanished. It was replaced by an unfamiliar place, and an unfamiliar face.

Frieza began to attack the seemingly unprepared man, but was stopped but his black-gloved hand. Immediately, the confused emperor followed up his punch, but finally took an instant to check his energy, and recognized it as the one who’d been fighting the Assassin earlier. He froze and looked around. He spotted Nemo, and many others he could not identify. The whole thing was making him very uncomfortable. Reading his impatient expression, Nemo elected himself the speaker.

“Chibi used something called Giga slave.” he explained, “It looked serious, so Z froze time and took us to the moon of Richon.”

“You took us THAT far from the battle?!” he shouted in both surprise and anger. Z answered calmly.

“It wasn’t just an energy attack. I think it was negating space and time themselves. Somewhat like a 4th dimensional black hole, but using the void as a substance, rather than the lack of one.”

“Hmph!” he insisted in all his hubris, “I appreciate the concern, but I can take care of myself.”

“I’m not sure about that. It was moving very fast, and you were preoccupied with Para.” Z pointed out, choosing his words carefully. Frieza turned his back to the group.

“Still, you should have saved your energy. You look like you need all you can get.” Frieza insisted still. Z grinned a pretty-boy wizard grin.

“Oh don’t worry about me. I should be fine, now that we’ve retrieved the Nemotan Sphere.”

“YOU WHAT?!?!”

Frieza recognized the name of that item immediately. He had often heard Nemo tell tales of it. Mostly when he was drunk. In fact, he’d spoken of it so often that Frieza had actually begun to believe there was such a thing, though he suspected it was probably just a marble he’d found on the street, or a can of pees, or some such thing. He turned his head slowly toward Nemo. He wore a grin that Frieza wanted to hit with a brick. In all his days, he never thought he’d see anything Nemo said make sense. But then again, this wasn’t the Nemo he knew. That Nemo disappeared the moment he stepped onto the battlefield. This creature was more focused, more clear…not stupid.

 

Karmis thought aloud. "Hmm....If they survive this attack, I have a feeling that the battle is gonna go into a full-fledged war. Best create some ammo." He hands glowed, and his bag popped open with weapons, all having jewels at the handles. "This Frieza is starting to show more resistance than before, too. I should take him out first, if they survive that is. To make it even, I won't use my weapons still, adding more stuff to 'Shindo in my temporary will." He threw the time gem to Chibi's friends, and once again prepared himself for battle.

 

Hacker cought the gem. "Thanks. We'll be needing this but..." He hands it to the Red Mage, Caitlyne. "You might need my help." He says, stepping out of the Sactuary.

Caitlyne catches the time gem. "Ok... I'll do it." She says reluctantly. Chibi...

Mazauron, Moonlight, the Kitsunes, and the wounded Abysmal Knight are enjoying some pop-corn. "Yay! Go Chib Chib!" The root.

 

(OOC: Hacker is now under Karmis' control. He has strong magic, semi-high attack, high agility, and very poor defence. His skills are Lord of Vermillion, Fire pillar, Fire Ivy, Fire bolt, Cold bolt, Lightning bolt, Thunderstorm, Jupitel Thunder (Yes Jupitel), and Ice Wall. They all are used the same way, going straight for the opponent. LoV, you know. Fire Pillar is a pillar of fire from the ground. Fire Ivy is a huge fireball. The bolts are rapid bursts of the element. Thunderstorm is a bunch of hunge lightning bolt. Jupitel Thunder is a thunder ball that attacks a bunch of times. Ice Wall you know)

 

Para couldn't located Friezza at the exact momment, but that was the last of his concerns.

"Demon eh!? But I just love jesters. How about we have a compromise." Para laughed as he tosses a ball of black energy into the air. It shrunk to the size of a marble, before taking on the shape of a human. The black energy slammed into the ground below. As it began to materalize, the creature was clothed in a baggy jester suit. White on left, black on right. As it looked up, it gave perfect view of it's mask. Black on left, white on right. The white sides mouth was pulled into a wicked smile. The other side frowned, a white tear dropping from it's eye. The white side had its eye covered in some sort of black glass, while the other exposed the full red eye. A jester cap lay crooked ontop, covering up the hair.

"Say hello to Narge, my only posses demonic jester." Para explained. Narge stood up and pulled out five black crystal balls, as he began to juggle them, shields appeared for each one thrown. After they were all in the cycle, five shields covered his body.

"Once I have your reactions, I'll explain how to get rid of these bothersome protectors." The jester laughed, awaiting the prince's comments.

 

Chibi clone: "Hey guys, I'm here to say and do whatever Chibi wants while he battles. Of course I have no magic or Katar, so there's no sense in attacking me." He explains. He walks over and pokes Narge. "Jester. Juggling jester. You're my new besy friend." He says.

 

A little bit of information before we continue. In fact, it would be kind of impossible to continue without it.

1) What did the Giga slave do? Was there an implosion? An explosion? How much damage did it do to the city?

2) How did all of your friends escape?

3) Narge is half jester, half demon, right? Just making sure.

Nemo will teleport us back as soon as we have our answers.

 

(Zero Arc) Okay I have no clue of what's going on. x-X

 

Here's a recap. I basically copied it from Frieza's on page.. 20 or so, and changed some stuff.

Recap: Dark Para (Guardian Sythe) and his allys have attacked Metro city again for the some odd
millionth time. But this time, with so few people left on the board, no one was there to stop him. So,
after about 8 pages of nothing happening, the S.P.A. showed up (or at least two of us). Me and Nemo.
Sub peaked his head in, but I guess he didn't think it looked any good.

And so the fighting begins, only a few important things have happened so far: The defenders have control of an object, which Frieza corectly named as the Nemotan Sphere in his last attack-like post, and cannot be taken from them because the wizard Z has stored it in another dimension for the time being, but can bring it out at will.

Defenders:

Frieza......(on the moon of Richon)
Nemo.......(moon of Richon)
Z..........(controled by Nemo. Currently on moon of Richon)
Sub........(absent)
Ace........(absent)
Trunks.....(absent)
Tan.....(controlled by Nemo. Currently on moon of Richon.)
Maxim.....(moon of Richon)

Offence:

Para............(Leader)
Chibi...........(Second in command)
Chibi's forces..(a bunch of guys from a game [ragnarock?])
Yoshindo........(not fighting)
Karmis..........(considering fighting)

All offence are on earth at Metro City.

You may join whatever team you wish. I don't think anyone would mind.

 

OOC: Yes, Narge his half demon half human(Jester specificly)

 

Awaiting Chibi's answer to other questions.

 

Damn I've missed a lot... Sorry guys I love RP I juast have been so busy lately...

Me: So I'm on this moon now huh? I gotta get off this rock- Hey- you guys trying to save Metro City?
The other fighters nod their heads
Frieza : Who are you? and what are you doing here??
Me: You could say I'm a phantom of the past. in any case, I don't want metro city to die out by enemy attack. With my Sword & Gun skills(Different style than Dante, if you were wondering) plus some of my light magic, I think we have a chance. I've got this idea to get back, but I'm not sure if it will work...
Nemo: Spill it, Guy...
Me: Could try my lightspeed tech- it increases player speed alot... if we can go faster than light then we should be able to cross dimentional barriers... that or be ripped apart by space/time... It's a gameble. Whaddaya say?

 

(Uh...what should we call your character?)

Frieza: Thanks for the offer, but you should save your energy. Nemo here, or Z could get us back easily, and without the risk of being killed. But in any case, we're happy to have the help. Now hang on, we're about to go.

(Still waiting to hear what happened to the city)

 

(OOC: Few things to clear up.

1) I think Chibi's at Disney World. Or something.

2) His friends in the RPG are actual people, who happen to be his friends.

3) I believe his friends created a shield of some sort, did they not? I never saw them take it down after Doppelganger told them to put it up.

4) As far as I know, Giga Slave is like just a massive blast of energy. I could be completely wrong. I don't know. Therefore, after it is/was completed, it would only destroyed in its path, instead of all around it. Again, I could be wrong.

I think that's it. Not sure though. This is as far as my knowledge goes on this subject.)

 

I'll be back in 30 to continue RPing

Me: Name's Maxim. Cool to meet guys that want to save Metro city. Place's been through ALOT.

Let's get goin!

 

"As long as we trap the screwed up Giga Slave, it should be good."

We'll assume that's what happened. So, in fact, little damage was done at all.

Should we wait for Chib? How long will he be, a week?

 

I personally have no clue. I came back from my grandparents and he was already there, apparently. My guess is he'll probably be there till Friday or something probably. I really have no clue.

 

(weap64mister) Zurick is walking through the totaled Metro City. he stops when he reaches the last standing building. he looks up toward the sky then sees Para looking down at the jester. he walks toward the jester and asks him

"Is that man floating above you your master"
"why yes he is"-jester

Zurick turns his jet pack on and goes to level Para

"I'm guessing your the one responsible for bringing Metro City down to this graveyard. Well I congratulate you on your job. I would like to Help you get rid of any pest that may be left in this city.

When Zurick was finished he bows down to Para and floated down beside the jester that he made

"Creepy little thing this is. Oh well"

 

((OOC:Sage, that post is void. Do not control my characters how they wouldn't act. I only let frieza do that becuase he knows how Para reacts to things, though I can't say I totaly like it. Try another enterance.))

 

So, uh, what happened because of the Giga Slave, and how'd yo men ecscape (<- purposely spelled wrong)?

 

(OOC:

A.) Yes, I was in Disney World. Had a nice time.

B.) I'm grounded, so I'll be gone for a while.

C.) Frieza's questions:
1) What did the Giga slave do? Was there an implosion? An explosion? How much damage did it do to the city?

The Giga Slave is a blast of dark energy amplifyed by the Sword of Light powered by the Golden Demon Lord/Lord of Nightmares. It hasn't hit yet, because I'm having a bit of trouble controling it. There is usually an explosion afterwords.

2) How did all of your friends escape?

Sanctaury guards against Dark Magic.)

Noticing that well... everyone left for Richon that he could fire it at, Chibi was in DEEP crap. "Oh... Kay...If I stop, we're dead, if I keep going, I'm out for a long time." He says worriedly. His face lights up as he remembers something an old friend told him once. "The Golden Demon Lord must have a Maozaku in you." The words rang through his head. "GOLDEN DEMON LORD!" He yells out. A large sea appeared in the sky. A single golden beam shined through the Sea of Chaos. In Chibi's head he hears the Lord of Nightmares. "My little Maozaku... You're progressed so much. Nobody ever told you you were my priest also, right?" The beam asked. Chibi shook his head. "Also, you are part of me. You can absorb the Giga Slave and use it later, but you may... Go the way of Shabrigado..." Chibi started to absorb the Giga Slave. His normal dark look faded. He glowed Golden, like his master...

(OOC: I hope I can continue when I'm not grounded.)

 

The warriors sat in silence. Maxim was still unsure what to think of it all. Frieza was growing impatient. Nemo and Tan were meditating. And Z was concentrating on the city. Eyes closed.

Z opened his eyes. "Time to go." He stood. The rest followed suit. Z turned to Maxim and Frieza. "You two grab onto them," he gestured to the porcupine duo, "I'll be to the city in a bit. I have to gather up some troops."

"Uh… okay… what troops?" Nemo asked.

"You'll see when I get there." answered Z.

"At least tell us where you're going." said Tan.

Z looked slightly agitated. "If you must know, I'm going to the planet Auir*."

"Ah, so you can get chopped to bits by the Protoss?" Tan replied. Knowing a little more about the colonies of space than he had before let on.

"As a matter of fact, I happen to know the leader there. And if you guys don't leave this moon in three seconds, I'm cutting off your air." Frieza and Maxim frantically grabbed hold of Nemo and Tan, and they vanished. Z turned his head upward and extended a hand. He needed to find the planet before he could teleport to it.

The quartet of fighters landed under a semi-destroyed building, and began filing out. Maxim went looking for Chibi, Frieza for Para, and Nemo and Tan for the awaiting forces of Chibi.

(OOC: *I think it's spelled Auir. If anyone knows, please say so.)

 

Maxim dashed through the dense scape of metal in the ruined part of the city- Chibi had to be somewhere, and if he was, then Maxim was gonna find him-

(ooc Chibi get off groundment soon dude!)

 

(OOC: Well... I guess I'm ungrounded now. Nifty, eh?)

The golden beam of light around Chibi faded, and he glowed a faint gold. "Are you ready for the power of the Golden Demon Lord's Mazoku/Priest?" He asks. He floated down from his area in the sky, his body emitting the lightning of the Giga Slave. The Sea of Chaos continues growing more solid in the sky, darkening the area. Slowly walking towards the Sanctuary barrier, emitting an odd glow. He looks at his friends, they'd fallen asleep in boredom. He pokes the barrier and is shocked by the holy force, knocking him back a bit. "It's true then. I am part of the Lord of Nightmares." He says. "Well, have a nice rest." He walks away, slowly. "Oh, Maxim..." He call. "I'm right here."

 

OOC: So lazy...so very lazy...
------------------------------------------<
Lightning roared above as the sky trembled under the Giga Slave's remaining influence. The hopeful saviors arrived in the midst of it. Immediately, they began after their targets.

"Wait" Frieza halted them. "Not too far. I think it would be best if we stay within each other's range." And without another word, they were off.

The battles had drifted slightly during their course. Para and Chibi were no longer on opposite sides of the city. But a few city blocks separated them, and the barrier walls between them, once dwellings, were weak - if not fallen.

Frieza landed gracefully several yards from the Demonic Jester. He could feel its dark, brooding aura. He indulged in it for a moment, as he did with all things. It was sickening and refreshing at the same time.

"A minion." he spat with icy contempt and an unamused expression. "How...cowardly".

No mere minion, Frieza was sure. Its malevolent energies could prove dangerous, and it surely hid secrets more dastardly than its appearance could justly herald. Never the less, the heartless tyrant held his jaded facade, emanating more disdain than most men though possible.

With a sudden burst of motion that lifted the dust from around him, Frieza came upon Narge with a barrage of physical attacks, testing his five shields, learning his movements.

He thought it wise not to be too presumptuous.
------------------------------------------<
You can pick it up from there.

 

"Aww... no comments. No games? Fine. I'll show you fun!" Narge cackled before bouncing back on a shield. He laughed insanely as he tossed off a collection of pink crystal balls. He bounced up, catching himself into a float before going back to juggling.

"I'll give you oooooooneeeee more chance to play. Otherwise your dead." The mask seemed to change itself into a serious face. Then the smile part almost seemed to grow much wider.

"So let's play!"

 

Chibi hears the Narge. "Jester man!" He said. In a blast, he is at the scene with Frieza and Narge, the city covered in a faint gold. "Juggle! Juggle juggle juggle... Juggle!" He says, encouraging him. He sits down over his dark golden cloak eating some popcorn.

 

*Still waiting to be attacked*

 

I just read the plot on page seven and saw what's happening as well as read the last like, ten posts. I suppose I'll enter the fight as I usually do: late, drunk, and bored.

***

Ace awoke again, facedown on the bar in a pool of beer. He shuffled himself out of the door of the place, a rare occaison, and discovered it was locked. He turned the handle and discovered it wasn't locked, but barred.

"Stupid son of a-" Ace muttered.

COMET BEAM!!!

A large blast of white energy erupted from the doorway and blew away the rubble in front of the door. A fine cold dust settled from the tail of the beam as Ace walked out into the destruction of what was left of Metro City.

Ace whistled and looked onto the destruction. "How could I have missed this...?"

 

Chibi turns to the Saiya-jin's Bar and Grill. "BRICK!" He shouted as he threw a brick at Ace. "Sorry, reflex" He turned back to Narge and Frieza. "Juggle..."

 

Maxim was watching Chibi this whole time, waiting for the right moment to strike... he sees that Chibi is deverted and Decides to all out strike him-

He leaps from the top of the Building, coming down with his sword to crush Chibi- Chibi spots Maxim from the corner of his eye and sways out of the way- So Maxim Rolls toward him and Stabs his Energy blade toward him- Chibi is Stuned for a second electrified then Maxim Punches Chibi, knocking him back- in mid-air Chibi puts his hands together, and a Beam comes out, directly at Maxim, throwing Maxim into the wall- Maxim Jumps out of the dust created an makes several swings at Chibi with his Energy Sword- Chibi :"What are you trying to hit? you really should watch it, or you might get tired swinging at air, heh heh" Maxim: "Dogde this!" Maxim jumps toward Chibi, Curls himself up and charges his energy, unleashing one of his most devastating moves- the Energy Spear- it Knocks Chibi into the air, into a ruined building's window, and then the building collapses. Chibi jumps out from the ruined building, ready to take Maxim on with more magic

 

Chibi stood up straight, and looked at Maxim. "Heheheheh..." He checkles. He slowly holds his hand out at Maxim. Black lightning surrounded by light blue pulses appears in it."Ragna..." He says. The lightning becomes a ball of dark lightning. "Blade!" He yells. The ball becomes a blade of darkness that fires out at Maxim. "I want to see Narge juggle, and I will!"

 

Karmis again jumps on Chibi, and again, he loses his balance and falls. "Ow....That really hurt. Say Chibi, may I have this dance? You can watch Narge, and I finally get a fight. Fair trade. So, yay or nay?" Karmis hoped for a yay.

 

Maxim: "OH MAN!!!"

Maxim Holds up his energy blade toward the dark crecent energy, and both seem to electrify violently... Maxim Grits his teeth as the energy voliently fluctuates... Cibi again decided to turn his attention to Juggling...

At the point of gretest stress, the Energy Blade Quits on Maxim. An overload for crying out loud! The Dark Blade goes THROUGH Maxim, And for a moment, a dramatic pause ensues, and leaves rustle around. The Maxim Falls, Stunned, by the dark energy "Nighty-Night, Maxim...HAHAHAH!" laughed Chibi...

Will Maxim Re-boot and be up to fight again? things are looking bad for our Cyborg hero...tune in next time !!!
(OOC: This is still fun, even if I did take a hit. I'll be alright...)

 

"Please, Karmy, cut in." He said. "I just have to see some juggling." He sits down and eats more of his popcorn that was still out.

 

Karmis frowned. "He appears to have knocked himself out. No matter, I'll fight him when he's up and well."

 

Maxim is quite good. He should try to be a bit more aggressive, though. But then again, it's early for him. He's got time to build...

This attack affects everyone. It's long, but read it.
------------------------------------------------------------
In the blink of an eye, Frieza's countenance was dramatically changed. No longer bored, he was full of vigor and arrogance. He glanced to his right to find Chibi not far off. He moved his attention between Narge and the assassin. A menacing grin fell upon him.

Frieza: Oh? Games? You'd like to play some games? Very well then..."

"First thing's first", he thought. He sent a telepathic message to Nemo and Tan.

"If I were you, I'd move now.

They did it without question, retreating to a safe distance. Frieza almost began, when he felt a familiar presence erupt from the bar.

"Ace! Protect the bar...and save that fool cyborg on the building. He may prove useful"

With this out of the way, Frieza stretched his hand out in a direction the spectators didn't know existed. His arm seems to disappear, cut off by a crackling violet ring.

In a moment, the hand emerges from pseudo space, holding a green crystal.

"Let's play. I believe they call this game, ring-round-the-...hm...I'm not sure I remember that last part. Ah well, I'm sure it'll come to me."

The tyrannical Emperor clasped the crystal firmly. He begins laughing maniacally as he throws his head back, filling the sky with an inhuman raucous. An enormous gust of wind explodes through the streets as the crystal releases its charge. The fighters can only look on in curiosity as the gusts become stronger. The dust of the fallen buildings ascends to the sky's mad callings. Soon, it begins to take shape. A cyclone, whose size and strength have never before been matched on this planet, erects itself over the torn metropolis. The fighters are taken by surprise by the speed in which these events take place. The all-consuming winds draw everything in. Rubble, streets, whole buildings (not that there are many left...) are taken up by the roots.

Now was the critical moment. Frieza closed his eyes and brought his hands together. Praying? No, not quite. He turned quickly to Chibi, palm extended.

Mon Zo Ros Neta!!!

A sphere of brilliant light explodes from the offered appendage. Caught off guard, the Maozaku sought to evade, but he was hunted by the iridescent glow, and quickly swallowed by it. He found himself inside glowing white bauble. He lashed out at the prison, but was met with a terrible pain.

Holy energy.

The ball with Chibi sailed away, the opposite direction of the screaming funnel. This fact alone left him wondering.

Immediately Frieza spun around, fierce manna streaming from his form, and cast the same thing in the Jester's direction. Knowing what to expect, he jumped, and before the possessed ball could circle back he canceled it.

Frieza: ****!!!!

It was swifter than he'd thought. Frieza cursed himself for his failure. The element of surprise was lost. Now it would be most difficult to ensnare him.

The Dark fool leapt into the air, laughing madly at his growling foe below, though the laughter was lost to the wind.

Suddenly, a segmented whip smacks against his front shields, pushing him back. Ace retracts his weapon and returns to his crouched position, protecting the fallen Maxim.

Narge was merely thrown off balance, but this gave Frieza just enough time to paralyze him with a flash of immaculate light, driving him into the vociferous storm.

Not too far away, Nemo and Tan lend a hand. Chibi's army, resting peacefully underneath Caitlyne's shield, is caught unprepared. Together, they gather enough energy to break the shield, spilling its inhabitants toward the ferocious tempest. They struggle, but in vain. The porcupine duo restrains their magic psychically.

Para too was caught, close to the source and high in the air.

 

Winds and dust tear across the marauders' flesh/frame, ripping holes, gradually sanding them down. They fly through the air, huge clumps of debris slamming into many of them at speeds near 1350mph.

"And now...for the attack..."

Gas lines which lay under the street are now exposed. Entire power plants, bomb factories, and everything else within 18 square miles, have been sucked up. This thing is highly combustible...

Frieza takes advantage of this by launching a small fireball in the general direction of forward. It is drawn into the callous winds. There is a blinding, all engulfing light. A deafening boom.

...

...

...

...

...

...

...

The sudden release of heat, sound, and general energy, not to mention the implosion caused by the air and electrons needed to ignite it, cause the tectonic plates to jump violently, resulting in cracking and shattering, as well as planet wide quakes. The prince and his allies are torn from the ground and blasted to the distant horizon. The trembling planet seeks to vent it's wrath upon the lunatic Frieza, but in its rage, only serves to aid him. The ground separates and ascends into the dark sky. The bowls of the earth are vomited to the surface in the form of blazing white magma. The intensity of its glow in this ever darkening land is astounding. The exploding pillars of liquid rock join the tornado in its deadly spin. After the immediate heat and blinding flash of the initial explosion passes, a raging column of whirling white hot fire can be seen from miles away, ruling the sky as an unquestioned sovereign. Any living thing caught in the vicinity is either ash, dust, or just melting, should they have managed sufficient defense.

Lightning flashes and thunder claps. The massive storm has drawn in every cloud from legions around, most visibly the ones left by the Giga Slave. A dangerously heavy down pour ensues. That is, it would be dangerous if any of it ever saw the ground. The rain (and well as many of the clouds themselves) are drawn into the greedy monster, giving it a threateningly black color. The lava begins solidifying, on some of the fighters, creating larger obstacles, and in some cases, tombs. Although half immersed in water, much of the blaze still continues. Now, it is prepped for the next strike.

The sky grows increasingly menacing as alpha and beta partials meet. Lightning streaks and flails outward at a rate unseen in nature. The storm focuses its attack on the funnel, striking the various parts of it attracted especially to Para's metal frame, though he is fortunately protected from its damage.

But not from its heat.

The electrical energy travels through the rainwater, shocking everyone and everything within. This continues for several minutes as Para's army struggles to break free. Progress was made. Gradually, the survivors freed themselves of the obstacles, pushing aside the pain, fighting against the wind. Mere moments before Para managed a break through, the crystal in Frieza's hand went dead. The Torrential Inferno, as quickly as it formed, is gone. Overhead can be seen the shapes of people, flying at hundreds of miles per hour, into the horizon.

Frieza surveyed the remains of the city. Almost every building had fallen. Few had not been lifted up in the gale. Enough remained, however, for his satisfaction. This was a big city. It just had a crater in it now.

The Saiya-jins Club Bar & Grill was among the fallen. Its walls had been blasted apart in the quakes. Panting lightly, Frieza approached it. On the ground lay a bottle of red wine, miraculously intact. He lifted it to his lips, drinking as though it were the battle itself in that bottle. Life itself...

"Ashes, ashes,"

Now empty, he lets the drink slip from his grasp. It hits with an almost inaudible crash.

"They all fall down."

 

(OOC: O_O whoa... you should write a book or something)

Within Metro City Central Park, after the attack

Frieza, having decimated hordes of Para's soldiers, bought our heroes precious time to regroup and reinitiate their attack-

Within Metro City Central Park-

Ace nudged Maxim, then slapped him in the face, trying to re-awaken him Of Course! Ace thought- He decided to try something that might seem drastic, but hey who knows?
He put Maxim in a small puddle of water, the decided to let lose a little magic- he tried a little shock out of his finger, electrifying the pool and giving Maxim a mild electric shock. Maxim groans "Uhhgg... damn! He got me! where is he! where's Chibi!" Ace replied "Yo, you're still in bad condition, so we gotta chill for a minute, I'm still readin' from da boss, and he says we gotta meet up at the corner of St. Amy and Javs Cross Streets. so get up, dust yehself off and lets head there." Maxim said "Sure, but I gotta Heal myself." Maxim Crossed his arms over his chest, and made fists, concentrating on the nesasary elements. A dim white glow emits from him, and when it fades, he is scratch free. "Hey, can you try that magic on me, I've got a few scratches Meself" Said Ace. "Sure, hold on" replied Max, so he went into the same pose and the glow this time surrounded Ace. "Amazing... I feel totally energized! Just like I do after one of our specials..heh heh heh. this'll help us out alot!". Our heroes began to make their way toward St. Amy Street following Javs Cross. Ace Asked Maxim "How does that healing stuff work man?" Maxim said "I really don't know... I just remember it. It's funny, I can remember my whole life, from the time that Professor Reid created me to now... I don't remember using Magic untill recently... I need to train with it". "Well maybe when this is over, Me & the guys from the SPA can teach you a thing ot two"

"Cool, that'd be helpful". The two made it to the corner. No-one had gotten there yet, but it was certain that this time the heroes have an Edge.

(OOC: I think the SPA is cool. Is there a way I can join?)

 

You just kinda... join. If we agree on it that is. Shouldn't be any problem there.
~~~~
"So your magesty..." Z was talking with the Protoss leader Fenix. Behind them were his two second in commands: Tassadar and Zarutal. "After hearing about the predicament on earth, would you be willing to spare troops to aid us?"

Fenix stopped walking, his dark blue cape gently flowing to meet his the back of his slender brass-like body, stopping the halucination after-images following him a step behind, and causing them to vanish.. Z stopped with him, and the High Templar raised a hand, shook a finger and called Tassadar, who was the lead general of his grand army, forward.

"Would we be able to spare any troops for our friend here, O Dark one?"

"Ground troops. Infantry. Pleanty of Zealots and Dragoons, some Templars of both kinds, and possibly a few Reavers. I'll have to check on those last ones." replied the decloaked Dark Templar.

Fenix (pronounced Feh-nix. Not Fee-nix) turned his head slowly to Z, the bluish hallucinations following the movement and stopping as they caught up.

Z was more than happy: "That will be excellent..."

"Glad to hear it." Fenix said. "But.. how do you plan on transporting them to your planet?"

"I can open an interdimenssional warp portal. No one will appear there until I go through, so it works out."

"Very well. Tassadar will show you to your troops." The two headed off toward the main Gateway.

Zarutal approached Fenix, his hulky Dragoon body turning slowly to face him. "You trust him that much as to give him so many of out units?"

"Relax... he's an old friend." Assured Fenix.

 

Trapped in the ball of holy energy, the Mazoku Assassin was helpless. "God damn it!" He shouted. "I can't change back to my normal state!" He looked through his coat franticly. "I've got to have a gem around here somewhere!" He says, worried. Just being surrounded by so much Holy Energy was already sapping his power. He screams out in pain. He found a card in his pocket. A simple card. A Creamy Card. "SALVATION!" He says with delight as he slots it into his Katar. He disappears from the ball and appears in the sky, high above Metro. "Holy energy make Chib Chib mad." He says. "Darkness beyond twilight..."

 

This starts just moments before Chibi breaks out of the Holy Energy....
~~~~~~~

Maxim and Ace were finally getting close, and being the first to the meeting point, they found themselves planning how they would fight the next wave of enemies...
Ace: With my chain whip, I should be able to Multi-hit lots of enemies (hey can you do that it is Game Physics? if not then void the statement) Maxim: my energy blade seemed to take alot out of Chibi, I guess cause most of the energy attacks I use contain Light magic... I still don't get how a robot like me can use Magic...
Ace: Maybe that professor guy did it? I mean you don't seem to be pure robot, you're about as heavy as a normal person, you breathe, all that stu-
Maxim: Hold it! I'm sensing something...
Ace: What's up?
Maxim: I can feel dark energy, I'm very sensitve to it. in fact the dark energy is what really KOed me...
Ace: Hey, look. if you've got that feeling, then we should have everyone assembled first and-
Maxim: There's no time He's almost done with it! *Maxim jumps on the wall and jumps up wall to wall, Megaman X style* STAY THERE ACE!
Ace: Like snot I will! *Ace Spots some of the SPA crew coming*
Yo guys look up there the Cyborgs....at this point Ace is out of Maxim's hearing range *Maxim curls up again for his Energy Spear attack*

Maxim: Hey chibi know how to fly? Chibi: What?!?! you?!?!!!
*Maxim Discharges the energy spear, a direct hit on Chibi, knocking Chibi out of concentration and cancelling his spell, and sends chibi to the top of a skyscraper*

Maxim activates his Energy Sword and tries to do a come-down attack on Chibi, who slowly rolls out of the way. the combined Holy and Light/Electric Magic has had a strong effect on Chibi physically, but not mentally. Chibi viciously looked at Maxim, who returned the Glare, each positioning their hands and ready to recite words for an attack to oblitirate the other opponent...Chibi begins wispering, and the energy in his hands begins to Spark... Maxim does the same, and his fists glow with power...
Chibi:"DARK REVALATION!!" The Shiniku Hadouken style beam headed straight for Maxim, but something unexpected happened in the miliseconds... Maxim was doing a Dragon Uppercut! he knew Chibi was going for a beam, It's chibi's style, so he did the upper-cut motion, caught Chibi off guard, and Kicked him down. Then Maxim held him up, and charged energy into his fist- "Chibi... ever hear the words... Hyper-Combo Finish?" *POW* Maxim uppercuts Chibi, sending him reeling to the other side of the city, toward his dark Ally, Para. Maxim: "KO.... Now let me meet up with the guys so we can plan a way to get rid of these guys!"

 

((Erm... Nemo... you got them mixed up. Fenix is the dragoon, Tassadar is the high templar(Both Fenix and Tassadar died), and Zeratul is the dark templar. @_@;))

The just seemed more hurt than he should have been. He was clutching at some sort of gaping hole, electricty shooting from it. Even though he was a humanish creature, wires seemed to poke through where bones should be. If one looked in the air, they might have seen Para mimmicking the moves. Both figures raised their hands into the air, laughing. The two demonic creatures spoke at the same time.

"You think something like that will defeat me!? You destroy your only battle field!" Both of them laughed, the echoing giving an eerie touch. Narge thre his mask down to the ground. A helmet landed right next to it, a large crack across a blue visor. Narge's true face seemed to carry a large third degree burn down the eye. Both iris's flashed from black to emerald. Long black hair tumbled down, brushing the mid point of his vertebraes. The barriers lowered while the hole in his body healing along with it. A being made of metal hit the ground. Electricty jump around Para's machine shell before it's parts began to disconnect. A metal ball rolled from the center. It opened up releasing a green mist. Narge breathed deep, sucking up the greent mist. A dark grin came across his face.

"The master is always the mind of the puppet." Narge commented, but his voice was different. It matched exactly to Para's original voice. A collection of spikes ran across his arm, decorating the part facing from his ribs. The jester suit ripped in half, dropping slowly to the floor. Underneath was a collection of thin, black armor peices. The armor across the arm was decorated with the spikes that poked through. Each guantlet had a gem in the center of the hand. Inside intense magic energies swirled. The right one was red, the other was black. A second indention formed on the right hand, next to the red gem. At the connection between the greaves and his boots, his knee cap, stood out five inch long, curved spikes.

"That shell of a machine could hardly accomadate me. Always save true parts for last." Narge, now identified as Para, spoke to himself. He stretched a bit before drawing a blade from a sheathe. The hilt was made of bones, a demonic skull with it's mouth open wide was at the base. The actual blade was pure black. An aura of faces lightly wrapped around the sword, whispering out their screams.

"Now then... continue on with your light show. Why destroy what I can have some one else do for me?"

 

(OOC: Whoo, that'd be scary to look at. I swear I would scream in terror of that sight. then I'd run. of course if I had powers like Maxim, then I'd fight. Be scared stull..o.o)

Maxim jumped from the skyscraper to the ground, In an attempt to find out what's going on down there... Ace explained that Frieza was still on the battle ground, and it was getting weird... Para's monsters currently seemed to have made a stop... the force of Freiza's last move halted their coming, leaving a seemingly clear road toward Para, Chibi, and the rest of the villans... A storm was brewing... one that spelled the fate of not only Metro City, but that of the entire world if the SPA and other Vigilante heroes did not stop the chaotic and Frightning powers of Para... one thing was for sure. It was going to be the fight of Maxim's life.

(ooc: this is fun... very deep. I'm not going to lead the other to attack yet, I know this is a more of a showdown between Para and Frieza, so when they exchange maybe two blows, the rest of the crew can show up, where inevitably the rest of the badguys can show up as well setting the stage for a huge brawl. I like Brawls=))

 

((Erm... Nemo... you got them mixed up. Fenix is the dragoon, Tassadar is the high templar(Both Fenix and Tassadar died), and Zeratul is the dark templar. @_@;))

Whoopsies... At least I had the unit names right, and I think the order of command (though not sure about Tassadar being the general dude). Eh, they won't come into the battle anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

I'll post an attack in a little bit.

 

I'm too lazy to write out a long description of the teleportation from Auir to Metro city, so I'm just going to describe the units now, then the teleportation tomorrow.
~~~~
The forces Z has now consist of the following: About 100 zealots, 35 dragoons, 25 dark templars, 15 archons, maybe 10 high templars, 5 dark archons, and 5 reavers. Now I'll describe each unit and their abbilities:

Zealot: Ground fighter. About 3 feet tall each, with the same scale size body of a person. They have blades on the ends of each of their arms which is how they attack. They cannot fly, and can only attack units on the ground from very close range.

Dragoon: Same heighth of a Zealot, but has a large body with four legs sticking out at the four corners of its square shaped abdomen. In the middle of its abdomen is a little... um... I don't know how to describe it but it opens up and shoots balls of energy about the size of a bowling ball. Can attack enemies in the air and on ground, and has very good range.

Dark Templars: Assassins. Always cloaked (invisible). About same size as zealots. Attack with a very powerful curved blade. Can only attack enemies on the ground and at close range.

Archons: Fusion of two high templars. VERY powerful attackers, but no magic abilities. Can attack flying and ground enemies but has close range. They are basically a black body with arms and a head inside a giant ball of white/light blue energy. To attack they fire their own energy at opponents.

High Templars: Magic casters. Have various types of magic that they use. Move relatively slow, and always have light blue halucinations following them when moving. VERY good range with magic.

Dark Archons: Fusion of two dark templars. Magic casters. Same look as archons, but black and red energy instead of white and light blue. Don't attack, but have very useful magic spells.

Reavers: Giant yellow worms. About the size of a car. They create scarabs in their body, and then let the scarabs out to attack. The scarabs are like tiny archons except they run around. Fast. The scarabs are fast. They explode when they touch an enemy, killing themselves but dishing out tons of damage. The reavers themselves are very slow however.

I'll have to make an attack tomorrow, so for the time being we're still on Auir.

 

Chibi gets up and stares at Maxim. "Screw the incantation! My master made the creature that powers the spell!" He says. "DRAGON SLAVE!" A crimson beam fired from Chibi's hands, straight at Maxim. "Cloaking!" He said, in the middle of the blast, becoming invisible. He silently walks towards Maxim, at the diversion flies right past Maxim, Chibi raises his Katar. "Sonic Blow!" He shouts from behind Maxim raising his Katar above his head. He slashed 8 times at his back in all directions. He reappears and jumps back a bit.

 

I'm gonna start abit before your move sorta showing my POV ( it's kinda cool doing Goodguy/Badguy POV, reminds me of SA2)
~~~~~
He sees Chibi rise up from his attack "Unbelivable... he's filled with rage and is ready to fight insanely well-WHA!"
Maxim Jumps into the air as the beam misses him Too easy.. so easy that- "Argh!" he spots Chibi out of the corner of his eye, making his move- the 8 hit slash actually exposed some blood, and circitry. Maxim quickly turned to the hovering Chib Chib, who was floating, smiling at his great work. Maxim faced chibi, realizing this was a real deadlock and they would fight forever unless he did something smart... something different...
Chibi decided he couldn't give Maxim another chance... "DRAGON SLAVE" And a beam came from both his hands, seeking our hero, juping and trying to dodge the beam. Maxim then jumped inthe air, activated his sword, and spinslashed it- dissipating the beam. Maxim Charged Chibi, Activated his sword and slashed him several times, while Chibi pulled out a dagger from his cloack, he stabs Maxim, and Maxim's gut squirts blood and wires, Maxim actually coughs some blood up, and falls down. Chibi turns around. "Goodbye Maxim. We shall not meet again"(heheheh, Quoted Grandia II) Maxim then, fully healed, quipped "Not so fast!"

(OOC: I would continue this but I gotta go- Sorry I kept you waiting all that time Chibi shadow. I got some stuff for you guys- I picked out some midis from my archive for ya to listen that's a little relative to this RP

https://www.angelfire.com/games4/solitude/RP_Midi.zip

they're Ok, and I can add more sometime later.

Could you guys post your sprites so I can at leat imagine what you look like while doing attacks and the like?
Here's mine:
https://www.angelfire.com/games4/solitude/Firerocket1Sprite.GIF

Well, bye=))

 

Here's Z:

http://geocities.com/nemotan_comics/Zsprite.gif

 

(I'd love to but all I have is the written description. I haven't currently designed a sprite for his true form o.o;)

 

Maxim - Your choreography is somewhat refreshing after what's been going on. You're definatly adding character to this. However, you're controling a little bit much. Chibi didn't say anything, so maybe he doesn't mind, but you should take control of Ace so much. Be especially careful with dialouge. You don't know us too well yet, so tred lightly.

Para - Do you still have those 5 black shields around you? If so, I believe you were going to reveal how to get rid of them.

 

OOC: Yes, the shields dissapeared.

 

(OOC: My sprites kinda... Restricted. I had to rip and alter it to my exact stuffness... And well... Tails90. Oh and the Katar aren't daggers, they're litteraly are Katar. They're sharp metal blades that are held in both hands.)

Chibi looks at Maxim. "Quality work, that machine." He says, chuckles, and finally reverts to his normal state. He walks over to his friends and grabs their Gems. "Warp Portal!" He says, throwing a blue gem at his friends, as they disappear in a blue flash. "Ok then." He says, sitting down. "Karmis, cover me while I watch the fight." He calls behind him.

 

Long descriptive teleportation:

Z and his forces appear in a giant circle huddled together at the outskirts of the city. Far from everyone else.

OK now seriously...

Z and his troops stood in a grassy area looking in on the nearly destroyed Metro City. Z swore under his breath "What happened here... I hope we aren't too late..." He turned to his troops. They had alread ordered themselves by unit and rank as they had been trained. "Zealot group A1 step forward." Six of the short bladesmen stepped up. "Set up pylons around the city so we can see what's going on. Don't get caught!" He tossed them each two gold rods, each about the same height of the zealots themselves.

They took off without question, three in the two directions around the city. "Everyone else will wait here until I comand you. I need to see what's happened in the city." Z took off, flowing low, and not at great speed, trying to detect what was going on. The pylons would act as a kind of radar after they were in place. He toched a small blueish gel to his right temple. Four pylons were in place, and he could now see a third of the city.

No one was there.

He prayed that Chibi's forces hadn't already destroyed his friends, as this fear seeped deeper and deeper as new evidence made itself present. The crumbled city. No on in the first third of the city.

Another pylon found its home, and number six seconds after it. Nothing. Z stopped in mid-air and teleported to the far end of the town. He looked in.

People. Everyone appeared to be alive, he could see them all. But... where was Para? He pulled a pylon from his pocket, only about six inches long, and used his magic to increase its length to what it should be. He threw it a few feet in front of him and it stuck into the ground. The radaric (probably not even a word) blue energy extended out of it in a diamond shape. He checked his radar gel.

Everyone was there. He counted to make sure. A newcomer was also present. He looked down. "Ah... Ace." He still could not see Chibi. He checked his radar again and looked at the exact spot where he should be. It was in an opening, where was he? Z focused in farther.

Gravel moved where the radar had indicated.

Z swore again, "He's cloaked." Z held a hand up to his forward, palm out. "Chibi is cloaked!!!" he sent the message to everyone on his side.

All the pylons were now up, and he had a full view of the city in his mind with the locations of everyone. He turned his head and hand toward his troops, "Combat strategy one-one-five-niner." They began moving out.

 

Whoops... I was writing that when you posted your thing, and didn't see the whole returning thing.

 

(OOC: I'm not cloaked anymore...)

Not paying attention to anything but Narge and Frieza, he never explected Z to be right outside the city. A voice in Chibi's head said something. My Mazoku... Be prepared. There's danger outside the city. The Lord of Nightmares voice rang out. Chibi once again used his Mazoku powers, becoming golden once again, ready for battle.

 

Para suddenly snapped up. Something had caught his attention. He could hear a voice ring out in his mind, a third gem slowly pulled itself out next to the black one, this one purple.

"The Protoss have arrived, Para. Shall I send down a cerebrate and soldiers?" A voice rang through his mind. An enslaved, reformed, Overmind. One must love technology and DNA samples.(OOC: Yes, I know the DT killed Overmind but DNA could be salvaged from the location.)

"Yes, but only a small force. Make sure the Overlords are upgraded also. We can't afford them being caught." Para spoke through a psi connection to the Overmind who was currently on Venus or Mars. He always forgot the exact position.

"Will do. I'll inform you when they land. They'll await your orders." The Overmind answered. Indeed, if one looked to the sky in a while they'd see the small force and a cerebrate comming. Para's original mechanic forces retracted, unwilling to risk a few problem.

(OOC:Just evening out the odds...)

 

Oooooo... this is gonna get good.

(OOC: I'm not cloaked anymore...)

I know I was writing my attack when you posted your decloaking.
~~~~
Z stood with his eyes closed, hand up in the air. Something was amiss... As if the vacuum of space above the earth was coming to life. He called to his troops, "Retreat to your original position. I think some enemy forces are coming, and I have a plan." and teleported to them.

_______________
Nemo and Tan had still not come back from their excursion away from Frieza's attack, and were also outside the city. They were both in their "speedy" forms, Tan looking as mangoey as ever, keeping their power levels to a minimum, but trying store as much energy as possible for a surprise attack. They moved to a spot where they could survey their own team to their left, and the "bad guys" on the right. Perfect for what they were planning. Para smirked, obviously with something up his sleeve, but it seemed he was waiting for it happen rather than doing it himself.

This was exactly the opprotunity the duo was waiting for. They reverted to their original forms, and began generating as much energy as possible as quickly as they could. It did not take them long with their combined strength to be ready for their onslaught. They brought their energy-lit hands back together, and put them next to eachother's in a cross patern.

"NEMOTAN..." Perfect unison in their voices.

Their arms shot forward with as they unleashed the attack.

"BOMB!!!"

From their hands appeared a small ball of energy, made of swirling black and gold. As quickly as Para turned to see what was going on, the ball grew dramatically to the size of a 20x20 foot sphere. It shot from their hands with astonishing speed, hurling toward its target. The spheroid left behind it a vacuum trail, which sucked up dirt and dust from the ground and materialized them into a long, dense, rock, rod which just fell to the earth. Anything in its path was left vaporized with a perfect round circle cut out of it. With all this happening, it still only took fractions of a second for the Nemotan Bomb to reach Para.

 

Chibi looks at the Nemotan Bomb and shrugs. "I could help, but I wonder how he'll handle it." As the blast rushes towards Para, Chibi wonders... What's for dinner?! I'm starving!

 

Para lifted up his left hand. The black gem's top slid off. The attack was absorbed deep into the contents of the gem before the top peice slid back into place. His voice rang out deep, clear, and something whispering underneath it.

"There will be no interference. I will have my fight alone with Frieza. If you dare interupt it one more time, I will be forced to drastic measures." Para calmly lectured the two fighters. The gems seem to have a vast amount of power, but one could see they caused a slight strain to him if they looked close enough.

(I've decided to use bold to single out Psi conversations)"The Cerebrate and it's forces have arrived." The Overmind informed Para through the still active Psi link.

"Zasz?" he questioned, wondering if it was the specific Cerebrate.

"Zasz is still on duty at Char. I've sent Daggoth." The Overmind replied.

"What a risk..." Para sighed. The Overmind was offensive, but a great strategist if it needed to be.

"He's the best for this situation. Currently he's setting up a small command base on the south side of the town." The Overmind ended it's psi connection. Another invaded his mind, Daggoth.

"Greatings, Para. We currently have set up a small hatchery, a spawning pool, an evolution chamber. We've had Overlords go to and fro to deliver supplies such as vesper and minerals from your other base. We currently have a work force of ten drones as we've found some supplies within the shattered buildings. We're rotating sixteen overlords on watch. twenty lurkers are burrowed around the outskirts of the base untill we can set up spore and sunken colonies. A small attack force of two hundred zerglings occupy locations near the base, scouting for enemies and land. Twelve mutalisks patrol the skies. We carry ten defilers. We have three queens on a parasite run. Finally, twenty five hydralisk make base rounds beside ten ultralisks." Daggoth finished his status report. Para mentally sighed.

"I told you to bring a small attack force! They may have already located us now!" Para scolded the cerebrate.

"It's better this way. We're rapidly taking over place, and within some time you may feel your own feet under soft creep." Daggoth answered, slightly hurt.

"Fine, fine. But keep your defenses up. They probably know you're here."

"Will do." Daggoth ended and left the Psi connect open if any orders or status reports needed to be relayed.

 

(OOC: Yeah Frieza I feel that too, I did add alot of dialoge, and I don't even know Ace everything he said was a guess on his personality, and he might be like "What that's wrong GARR!! Throw him overbored!". But the main purposed as you proposed was for story. Plus most of the choregraphy I've done I've tried to make it a sort of Stalemate (EX I hit him he hits me back harder I hit him kinda stuff) the only thing it ends up doing is just tiring fighters out... plus the fact you guys are meeting up at that one point is kinda my fault... but for now I'm going to try to stick to my charecter when it comes to moves and talking. and just for your info, Maxim is a Cyborg, but he actually belives he's a full robot.)

Umm.. I'll add to stuff later.. gotta leave-

 

"Yeah... Frieza's yours..." Nemo stared blankly at the gem in Para's hands.

_______________
"This is bad. This is very, very bad." Z said.

"There are too stinkin' many of them. Typical Zerg. Using numbers to their advantage." He was pacing slightly nervously in front of his small army. "I'm going to have to fight along with you guys" he stopped and faced his troops. "Luckily their lurkers won't do them much good, I can see anything that's alive weather it be cloaked, burrowed, or... anything else. We're going to need to kill those hatcheries and drones. I want Attack Strategy Zerg A-302, except I want dark archons and high templars in the very back. I'll fly high above and transmit coordinates of any burrowed units."

He took off into the air, looking down hard at the infestation only a football field away. He could already see they were way ahead of his forces in numbers, but strength was where the Protoss excelled. As was also typical of Zerg, their main hatchery, which he was surprised had not gone beyond the level of hatchery yet, was stationed at the back, with drones trying to salvage what resources they could. He landed just out of their sight range in some bushes.

A mutalisk let out a cry above Z's head, and he looked up immediately. It hadn't spotted him. "Phew..." He looked around more, to see what else these creatures had brought with them. "Man, I wish I had some carriers." He concentrated more on the best way to kill the hatchery and drones. Z thought the most efficient plan of attack would be to fire a beam at the hatchery, then rush in full boar to kill the drones.

He decided against it and opted for another option. He'd just throw a large Mota Orb at the hatchery and blow it to smithereens. He stuck his hands out, a small baseball-sized white orb appearing in each hand. Simultaneously, they jumped to about the size of basketballs. He put the two Motas together and they combined into the size of a beachball.

"This should be sufficient." He brought it back behind his head, and threw it as hard as he could at the hatchery. It flew straight through the air, and erupted into a giant ball of flames as it made contact with the hatchery. The structure began rapidly losing health, and flew apart in a shower of blood.

The drones stopped working, confused, and Z leapt from his hiding spot, staff materialized. He brought the gold scepter down into the body of a drone, and vaporized it. Z looked around for his next target, but realized he was in a lot of trouble.

Dozens of zerglings had popped up from beneath the ground. Z had stupidly forgot to look over the area for burrowed units before destroying the hatchery. The small dog-like beasts rushed in at the wizard, and he let a spell roll of the top of his tongue:

"Immobulous." A loud thunder let out from the tip of his staff, allowing him to perform a fourth dimension spell. All around him the zerglings had slowed to slow motion as the effect of the spell set in.

Z, with time slowed around him, went into action. He jumped into the air and materialized two more basketball sized orbs in his hands. This time, though, one was black. He threw the black one down into the middle of the swarming zerglings, and it imploded upon itsef creating a large well of gravity. The zerglings were pulled quickly, especially for the time lapse they were experiencing, to the gravity well as Z tossed down another Mota. Again the white orb erupted into flames, spontaneously combusting many of the zerglings.

Z turned his attention to the rest of the base, and located all the drones. He dropped to the ground and began running as fast as he could through the buildings vaporizing all the drones with a slash from his staff. Like the Time Freeze, Immobulous had a time limit itself.

 

"SIR! We've an assault upon the secondary hatchery!" Daggoth screeched into his mind."

"Fine, dandy even. Is the hive still working?"

"Sir! We've already pulled ourselves as far as our gene pools will allow us to go! We're pumping our units quickly. I think he's heading into the sunken colonies! He won't get passed that line of defence, nor the guardians!"

"Good. Keep me posted. Oh yes... have the queens done anything?"

"We've got a few Dark Archons parasited."

"Good, good. Send out a secondary task force to the left part of the city with a few units. What ever you do, don't let up attack."

"Yes sir!"

"One more thing... see if we can add in a few of those Zealots or something. Also, have Kerrigan come to the battle scene. I'm not letting this planet fall from my grasp."

"Sir, yes sir!" The cerebrate finished, again leaving the line dormant should anything happen.

 

Ace took a look at the demolished bar and his eye began to twitch. Anger flared like flame throughout his being as he yelled into the sky.

"DAMN!!!"

He appeared to jump straight into the air and float over the devastation that had fallen upon Metro city. His eyes bugged out upon seeing the mat of creep upon one end of the sprawling metropolis and the shining spire of a Protoss Nexus not too far away from his position.

"You've got to be kidding me..."

He sped off, cracking the air with his green aura following behind. He literally dove headfirst into a crowd of Overlords, tearing their tough carapace off with clawed fists. He did not go about his reckless assault without being molested. A crowd of dozens of Hydralisks came screeeching from beneath the earth, sending up chunks of cement in the process. They launched translucent spikes from the armored slits on their back. Some embedded themselves into the dark echidna's limbs, making him scream in pain. Ace gathered his wits finally and dropped down around a pool of primortial slime. The glowing ooze of greens and oranges contrasted him as he began to glow.

The screeching centipede-like aliens came rushing over the hill, their dagger teeth covered in drool. Ace unleashed a cometr beam in their general direction, vaporizing some while freezing others who had dodged to the side. The echidna bit off a pin from a frag grenade and tossed it into the pool. The skin around the disgusting swampy structure shivered with protest as he flew up yet again. A flaming fireball followed him as a scream rose up from the the nest of alien scum. Doggath knew he was here, seeing Ace through the compounded eyes of his minions. His structure of creatures had been stunted and it didn't bode well that something was crawling up next to his vile larvae-like body.

He tried calling in a few of his creatures to take the insignificant turtle creature away...alas. If he hadn't been crowding his Overlords together, they wouldn't have been killed. And with less control came the issue of creatures acting on their own and not on his orders.

"I guess you've been outgeneralled, Cerebrate," Shiro the Tonberry said, lifting his lantern close to what seemed to be the creatures head.

EVERYONE'S GRUDGE!!!

The memories and pain of millions of cretures that Doggath had killed serving the overmind came flooding back. They overwhelmed his consciousness, blasting away his very soul...never to return.

Ace kicked down another of the Scourge on their way to deal with him and then touched down on the Hatchery turning Lair on the ground. He felt the warm flesh beneath his gloves and shivered a bit before accessing his emerald ring. He felt Doggath beneath the soul of the structure and pushed him away. A green shade of crystal popped up from beneath the creep. Tearing the membranous material, making it bleed. More and more shunted from beneath the earth around every structure until finally the whole of the Colony was enveloped.

 

Ghostly apparitions filled the air as smoke coming off of the crystal. It smept about the Colony, filling into the bodies of the Zerg. A few Mutilisks got away before it reached them. Many of the creatures didn't make it through their transformation...others did. And they were blessed.

"What do you get when you cross a Terran with a Zerg and a Protoss?" Shiro asked Ace as he rested from his chore.

"A Trinity..."

 

Daggoth, cerebrate of the hive, regenerated. It was impossible for anything but the Dark Templars energies to negate his power. A ring of hunter killers rose up around Ace. Spines flew from there backs towards him. Spores flew in from all directions. The creep retracted a bit, and began to come back. Ace was surronded by his own arrogance.

 

Ace smirked as the spines shot at his body, knowing he was protected anyway. As the needles came to withing just feet of hitting him, they were shot directly back at the hunter killers, splicing their brains as they passed through their skulls. The spines had been reflected off of an invisible electrib force field Z had put up.

"Thank you Z."

The wizard came out from his hidden position, "You're welcome. Now it's time to die, cerebrate... again." The subtle sound of rising blades was heard in a circular position around Doggath as the cloaked dark templars brought down their weopons upon the evil being, and Doggath's guts flew about wildly over the defeated Zerg.

"Ya know why the it's so inexpensive to create Zerg units?" Z added. "THEY SUCK!"

"He's dead dude." Ace looked awkwardly at Z.

"I know. I've just always wanted to use that line in a victorious battle against the Zerg." He turned around. "All forces resume previous attack strategy on the city."

______________
Nemo and Tan walked up behind Chibi, "Got any pop-corn?" Nemo asked. "We're out of the fight until some enemy comes along."

 

PAUSE

As the battle builds to its climax, so too must we. I'm prepared for something big. Not the biggest, mind you, but it will take time. Wait for me.

 

Grr...half of what I wrote got deleted, and I completly lost my momentum. I'll try to finish tommorow.

 

OOC: erm... one question... how the hell did Z bypass that much defense? Overlords aren't blind to invisible units you know... also, lurkers are hidden all over the base. Guardians and Devourers protect all across the outer rim. I hardly see how he can bust through and into the center of a base in one run @_@

 

Z can't cloak. He ran AROUND the base. Usually (this may not apply to you) people/computers put their main HatcheryLairHive/Nexus/Command Center at the back of their base. I admit, this was an assumption, however I did it as a best guess. During the Immobulous, the lurkers would not have been able to hit him anyway as the reaction time and time delay before actually attacking would have been slowed to nearly a halt.

And I really have no planned use for my Protoss units now that I have them, so we could just say that they killed all your Zerg, with Z's help and Ace's, and you killed all the Protoss stuff that I had, which would bring us to the same point we're at now.

*Goes back to writing*

 

Whew... this took a long time to write.
~~~~
Having seemingly been ignored by Chibi, Tan and Nemo headed off to look for other things to occupy themselves. As they left the crumbled building, Z was waiting for them.

"Time guys. You ready?"

The two looked at each other, and then back at Z to make sure they knew what he was talking about. He just nodded. They rushed off behind a hill outside the city.

"This is fine here." Z said. They stopped in a small opening. He put his right hand out in front of himself in a fist. He opened the fist slowly, and thin purple circle appeared in his palm. He snapped his fingers at the circle with his left hand, and it began spinning. It soon was spinning so fast it just looked like a purple ball. With another snap it flashed a bright magenta. The light dimmed, revealing the black and gold swirling Nemotan Sphere.

"Here you go." Z said. The ball floated from his hand and rested in a spot about four feet above the two porcupines. They took deep breaths and each put a hand up toward the globe and closed their eyes.

Nothing happened.

Z began worrying. Was something supposed to be happening? He glanced from Tan to Nemo, from Nemo the sphere, from the sphere to Tan. He ran his hands nervously through his straight gold hair and started walking toward the event.

Z stretched a hand out toward the Nemotan Sphere, but only made contact with the burning white lightning bolt that was shot out at his gut, knocking him back hard. Z rammed into a tree, which split at the point of impact. He looked up dazedly.

A pure white beam was shooting directly up from the Nemotan Sphere, extending far up into the sky and heavens beyond. A wind was picking up around the duo, raising dust and leaves from the ground. The wind quickly picked up as the combined power levels of the porcupine duo skyrocketed. Trees began ripping from the ground, roots intact, and spiraling upward along the white beam.

In the sky, clouds began swirling. A lightning bolt shot down into the Nemotan Sphere, and stayed down. The bolt didn't just shoot and end, but a seemingly endless amount of electricity continued firing down in the same bolt. Two more bolts joined it. The temperature around the event skyrocketed, and Z began flying for cover atop another nearby hill where he continued to watch the spectacle.

As the temperature reached its apex, the remaining trees within about 20 yards of the sphere burst into flames. This raging inferno did not spread, however, as all the flame was sucked into the whirlwind around the two porcupines, and then vacuumed into the Nemotan Sphere.

But still the fire blazed among the trees. And as the fire was continually sucked into the Nemotan Sphere, so was the rain that began to pour. Amongst it all, the porcupines were still like statues.

Z watched in sheer amazement. It was the most amazing thing he had ever seen. The heavens seemed to rain a waterfall while electricity shot down continuously like some freak science project. Around this were a super strong swirling tornado that didn't move from its position, and trees that burned, and burned, and burned, when they should have already become ash.

And to top it off, in the middle of it all were two porcupines that not many expected to put forth so much strength and exertion into a battle. The first, an idiot, who seemed to pull battle strategy and ability out of thin air. And the second, whom none of the other fighters had met before.

 

Who would have known that such a small object as the Nemotan Sphere could hold such power. The astounding light show in front of Z, fit for a god as it was, only lasted for another few precious seconds, ending in the most brilliant flash of white light ever witnessed. The light would have blinded even the mighty wizard Z, had he not the presence of mind to put up a quick spell.

Looking down, he first saw that the two porcupines were gone, but the Almighty Nemotan had been born.

(OOC: I'll pick up from here tomorrow.)

 

Thank's for the assist, Nemo.

"Annoying little insects those Zerg," Ace said as he walked around the field of maturation pods that were growing along the bleeding and burnt creep. Green crystal throbbed and grew along the poutsides of it while the echidna's creations writhed withing.

Z got close to one just before the creature broke through the membranous material. A cloud of Vespene gases and Zerg blood sprayed out of it, making him jump backward. The creature that emerged was reminicient of a Zealot donning natural armor and a more humanlike face with a Zergling's feral eyes and claws on it's four fingered hands.

More of these strange creatures emerged, some just variations on Zerg soldiers while others had evovled beyond any recognizable form of any three of the races they represented. One was a hulking mass of sinew and muscle. Of blades and tentacles. It had no eyes to speak of, but it damn sure had a mouth. A mouth of razor sharp fangs and a forked tongue that seemed to be segmented and barbed.

"Man...what have you done," Z gasped in amazement. "That is so weird."

"Nothing yet. But that's gonna change." He looked over at one of the winged creatures inb the air and pointed down at the former Hydralisk Den, which was on it's last legs. "Assimilate..."

The creature shot a ball of mucus and strange negatively colored fluids into the Den. The Horrible features of the structure gave way to a shining building of fractured glass and light. The thing seemed to be an organic prism bending all light around it into rainbows.

"That is the beginning," Ace said as he looked down on the armored cretures who had clustered into a whooping hollaring group of fighters. "All of you lay waste to whatever Zerg structures and units in a five mile radius. Chase any Drones off 'my' property and then vape 'em. Filthy cretures... Oh, and Z, you can make use of any of my units if ya need 'em. I'll be making more and more as the days go on."

 

I wrote that after the last post where Nemo helped me and got sidetracked. I had to post it later after my computer stopped giving me trouble...for an instant. Sorry if I'm late or didn't get to read something.

 

Para suddenly twitched. His emerald eyes flared red. Something in his head had changed, got enraged even. The creep near Ace began to pulse quicker than it usually did, and seem to strain to maintain the land it carried. The prism that was original the hydralisk den began to feel a level of stress on it's structurs. The creep itself was actually trying to destroy the building. It was as if the creep had a mind of it's own. Elsewhere, Para's arm muscles visibly tensed on the open side of the armor. The black crystal sank into his arm and was replaced with a purplish colored one, matching that of the creep. A mist swirled inside and energies pulsed around it. Para's head tilted to the ground, a light psionic wave emitting from his body.

"No one... touches my Zerg..." Para spoke, a second voice whispering under it. The overmind's voice to be exact. It seemed the gem embedded in his hand had a level of control over the zerg race. His head slowly raising. The purple gem began to pulse flash a brighter purple color. This gem was the one currently under his control, and what ever energies it held within.

"Not even the protoss..." Para spoke, clenching his fists as his head raised up. The creep around the prism actually began to crawl up. The living mass has a mind of it's own as it attempted to crush and consume the building. A few drones rose from under the creep, attacking anything in sight in a pure blind rage. Kerrigan was approaching with a few more Zerg forces, and these hopeful worker would ensure that the place was clear for the landing of their queen.

 

Chibi coughs. "Well, I'm going to eat, since I'm being ignored." He says. He floats slowly off the ground towards the sky. Looking down he noticed all of the strange stuff happening. "Man I am so lost right now." He mumbles. "SEA OF CHAOS!" He shouts, as the sky split into a dark sea in the sky again. He floated through it, and it closed tightly. Through the sea, he headed to the only house, that of his lord. "Master!" He shouted, knocking on the door. "Master, I need some food." The door opened, revealing a golden man with long hair, down to his knees. He wore a simple long shirt and pants, as most peasants would. "Thank you." Chibi said. "There's some fresh spaghetti." The master said telepathicly.

(Golden Demon Lord has no voice, just so you know.)

 

After reforming from several indirect attacks, Karmis got up and looked around. "..Humh? What'd I miss? Oh yeah, Chibs wanted me to fight Maxim, I think. Well, I dunno, I'm very confused right now, so.." He started to scream, "I WANT TO FIGHT SOMEONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He sighed. "I swear, nowadays just lights and fancy footwork."He hoped that this would get someone's attention.

(OOC: Two things: 1) My Grandma's sleeping in the same room as I'm typing in, and she is SNORING VERY LOUDLY. This said, I have very bad concentration skills now.

2) The power is out at my house. I'm using a slow laptop at my Grandmother's house, and my power has been out for 5 days. That said, I missed alot. That being said about concentration skills, I didn't really read the long posts. I will when we get power back. Sorry for my crappiness right now, just bear it.)

 

Ace smiled sadistically as the ground itself swallowed him whole. The Creep churned and struggled to crush him and his structuire in one breath as Kerrigan landed. The stage was finally set.

A single clap echoed across the field as Ace clapped his hands. A white hot flash of Lightning came from the prism and washed away everything for miles around. When it had blown over everything was gone for the next twenty miles. A huge smoking caldera was all that was left. A collassal smoking crater that could possibly be seen from space.

"Hmhmhmhmhm...Hahahahahahahahahaha!!! I don't believe I played you that easily," Ace said. His voice echoed through the minds of everyone on the battlefield. "I was counting on pissin' somebody off with that tactic, so I decided to get rid of the Zerg the only way I know how...glass 'em, MAN!!! Hahahahahaha!!! All that prism I made was a King size Bug Zapper!!! All it needed was the right level of psionic energy to touch the creep or ground around it and boom: A thermonuclear blast of energy whites out everything for twenty Kilometers."

The echidna laughed like a maniac with his Tonberry sidekick sitting on the largest standing building in Metro.

"If ya wanna do me damage, man. I suggest ya do like ya did the last time we battled, come to me face to face."

 

Having finally gathered his wits from the amazing fusion of Tan and Nemo, Z teleported to Karmis. Sure I'll fight ya it you're lookin' for some one.

 

Karmis jumped for joy. "YAY!!! Fight!" He moved his hands and swiftly jumped for Z's wrist and wrapped himself around it, to where Z cannot attack Karmis without harming himself. "Now I'll just--Oh crap, no weapons. That's right. I'm not even a threat now." Karmis just now was a weight around Z's wrist, or so he wanted everyone to think.

 

(Al the hedgehog) Al's long, blue scarf flowed like a river in the wind as he watched the madness from atop a battered building. "I guess I should care, but I don't" the hedgehog looked down towards the people in the city flailing about, not knowing if they would live for another minute, or second. A sadistic feeling was inside the blue hedgehog while he watched more carnage be completed by his friends and conrades, he did not care one bit. "Let them die" the hedgehog slowly muttered, "let them all die, every single one, show them your might Para, for I won't stop you". The blue hedgehog's scarf wrapped itself around Al as he disappeared, possibly forever.

 

OOC: Erm... Kerrigan hasn't landed. It'll take much longer for her to land, and she's not even landing at the creep. It's just going to be where the second base is. She's to "high and mighty" to go near the actual Zerg bases)

 

(Al the hedgehog) But as always, Al is never gone. The blue hedgehog's right wristarmor spoke three words that could mean massive damage to Para's army, "Nuclear Lauch Detected". The blue hedgehog reappeared near the corrupted land of the Zurg. Almost mocking Para, the hedgehog gave him a salute and stood still, waiting. He knew the nuke would come soon, and he would make sure nothing would stop it's arrival.

 

After finishing his 5th plate of spaghetti, Chib looked down from his master's "seeing pool". He spies Al, and not thinking of anything else , he takes an object out of his pocket. He turns to his master. "May I?" He asks. GDL nodded. He assembled the object, and dropped it down into the pool. A bright light shined infront of the azure hedgehog. From the light came... A very sharp... HOCKEY STICK! "AL! RAMPAGE!" He shouts.

 

(Al the hedgehog) "An interesting sentiment Chibi..." the cerulean one grabbed the enchanted hockey stick as his scarf covered over it and most of his body. After the tattered scarf wavered away, the hockey stick was changed, deformed. Where the blade of the stick used to be was now a long pointed blade, curved like a scythe's blade, except much more extreme. The blade itself was jagged and etched, making it less likely to make clean cuts, but more likely to inflict much more pain. Al himself had also changed, he seemed much more focused and eager for battle. Something odd also happend to the hedgehog, carved in blood on his forehead appeared the anarchy symbol, not many people knew what this meant, but Al knew, and he would use this advantage as best he could.

 

"Whoo! Al rampage with Hockey Stick like thingy!" He cheers. His masters sighed and kept watch.

 

Okay, I'll be straight up about this. I'm being rushed. Every time I go on the internet I'm being rushed to get off. I never know when somebody's going to call or what so I try to zip from p-lace to place, get what I want or need and get off. I barely have time to type this message. That's why I don't give everyone's posts that much attention. I skim over it to get the gist of it, log off, use wordpad to type a response, and then post it like and hour later without even checking the latest post. So please just cut me some slack here. I'll see ya'll tommorrow...I'm waitin' til' Freiz shows up.

 

Yeah, guys, stop posting and wait for Frieza.

 

Sorry for the wait.
--------------------------------------------------------------

Darkness. They knew it well. They reveled in it, basked in it. It was no mystery to them. But was darkness always what it seemed? An abysmal world all its own, devoid of light? Or perhaps it was the blackness of something missing, something torn away. But could it be something real? Something you could taste? Darkness. The realm creation forgot.

 

Or was it?

 

Frieza hung motionless as he beheld the destroyer. Flawless obsidian armor wrapped its twisted yet compelling form. The encrusted jewels glistened in the emptiness. The figure among them radiating wave upon wave of venomous hatred. Of souls burned forever, blasted by the unspeakable.

 

Darkness.

 

There was no sky. There was no ground. Dust blotted out all light, save the faint glow of the distant horizon. Hope yet remained for those far off skylines. They might be spared the ambitions of this miserable wretch, and the heartless struggles of his antagonists. But dared the inhabitants imagine there was hope here too? They, poor banished children of time, sending up their mourning to a callous clouds from this valley of tears? Look, friends, is that a light we see?!  A candle, deep within the blackness, braving, confronting the night?!

 

No…we are mistaken…

 

He gazed deeply at the sword far darker than the scene. It actually contrasted to the eye. He felt the pain. A quake ran through the demolished earth, sentencing it to the sky. His eyes continued their assent until they reached another pair. And there, they were moved.

 

Crimson met black. Passion met malice. An icy gaze. A mutual contract. The primalistic grind. Just another case of kill or be killed. Nothing more. But something was different this time. Something nagged Frieza subconsciously. Somewhere, he knew what it was, but he could not find it. His mind was consumed with the beauty of the moment.

 

Invisible foes fell from the oblivion above, raining on the outskirts of the city. Death from above. Not an eye could see them, but not a person missed them. The air trembled as more and more arrived. Neither Para nor Frieza turned. It made no difference.

 

“Maxim,” a voice called out silently, “I want you to get on a certain frequency, and transmit this exact message.” Maxim obeyed, though confused.

 

Maxim: “Contact: twelve, niner, niner, seven, sigma, 12734 X, 779000 Y, 123948 Zeta, one. Authorization: sigma, foxtrot, twelve, twelve, zero, one niner, one. Transmit: supreme high command, attack force requested, code 0027832, respond 3124930 X, 9934 Y, 4822340 Zeta, one.”

 

There is no response. At least, not a verbal one.

 

Maxim considered asking if anyone was even there, but the cosmic explosion stilled his tongue.

 

High above the canopy of floating ash, there appeared a rip in fold space. In distant cities across the adjacent hemisphere, there hovered a mass the likes of which had never been seen. The imperial flagship had arrived. Though it appeared to be mere kilometers above the atmosphere, it was actually behind Jupiter, millions of miles away. Moments later, particle weapons, lasers, and bolts of ki rained down. They were poorly aimed, destroying but a few Zerg facilities and dispersing several legions of troops. Just a show of muscle. A prelude.

 

They were followed in suit by a barrage of transport pods, covered under several legions of star-fighters. Tailing last came a mighty battleship, designed for planetary combat. The entire force landed on the outskirts of The South Side of the city. Z lay to the east, Para to the north.

 

Onlookers would have described the scene as chaotic. Hellish, even. But it was quite the opposite. Squadrons of multi-species lightly armored foot soldiers, each the pride of their race, dashed from the ships to their assigned locations, receiving orders as they ran. A unit of Mecha marched around the city, approaching the Protoss. Escorting them were an infantry of bio-commandos, covered from head to toe in biomechanical suits. In their left hand, they carried multi-purpose energy cannons. Over their right hand could slide a magnetic rail gun, capable of firing a charged sphere of energy at 10 times the speed of sound.

 

This display was but a fraction of the force the over-concerned commander in chief Zarbon had sent. He stood at the main battle craft’s doors and personally ordered his troops.

 

Zarbon: We’ll set up camp here! Get going! Echo and Hotel team, establish the western front! Gulf and Bravo, make first contact with the eastern allied forces! What’s taking so long with those barriers?! This isn’t a tea party God damnit! (Into a radio) Dodoria, have we received data from the home planet yet?

 

Dodoria: Yes, our enemies are known as the Zerg. The ones fighting them are called the Protoss. I’m transmitting all known data to you now.

 

Zarbon: Good. Is the blockade in position?

 

Dodoria: Almost. We’ve covered half of the planet. We have contacts in the direction of Mars and Venus, but we’ll be ready for the losers.

 

Zarbon: Any word on those other power levels?

 

Dodoria: Other than Lord Frieza, none can be identified.

 

Zarbon: Good work. Keep me posted. (puts away radio) All right men, the battle data is being transmitted to your scouters now! Pay attention to the strengths and weaknesses of each species! Assist allied forces when possible, but don’t let them get in your way! And above all, keep your distance from Master Frieza and any other high power levels! We don’t need anybody playing hero today!

 

The royal army set out, annihilating anything in their path.

 

Frieza remained captivated in the darkness. For so long, he’d been interwoven with it. He knew its futility, yet he could still see its beauty. Like a glass of wine.

 

Through all of this, neither fighter had moved an inch. Frieza retained his regal disposition and battle-toned manor. Para never knew what he was thinking. Of all that flitted through his mind, only one thought passed his lips.

 

“A true opponent at last.”

 

A pseudo space portal opened, bending the darkness around it. From this, Frieza withdrew a weapon. It was a sword, simple in its shape, ornate in its decoration, mighty in its craftsmanship. The blade was colored as an amethyst, slender and sleek. Deep within its crystallic bowels hummed the energy of purest spirit. Emotion personified. It moved in harmony with its master, alive. Alone in time, the alien lord hefted it with a killer instinct. For the first time since the battle had begun, he felt the intensity of the situation. A world waited with boundless emotion as its fate was decided. His companions fought and bled with him. And he; was he to descend into infinity with this beast of night, only one of them to emerge?

 

<i>I can see a city burn on the horizon</i>

 

In perfect unison, each moved together, and the battle was begun. Blades swished through the stillness, Para’s hair swashed about his face, Frieza’s tail whipped and darted in graceful attack. The clashing of blades and the breaking of ground echoed to the distance, the voice of the battle ringing clearly through. Fiercely, unrelentingly they move. Para’s sword skills leave Frieza at a disadvantage, but he wills himself to hold his own. Blade strikes blade. A missed swing strikes rock. But there are no sparks. No light.

 

A cry rises over the rubble. “Frieza Burn!” Beams of sparkling red plasma stream through the air, parting the shadows. Para dodges readily while refracting what he could not avoid with his sword. However, true to the battle cry, the attack is surrounded in an aura of air brought to absolute zero. The very air around the sword freezes into a clumsy block. His enemy is already taking advantage of this. Para swings to counter Frieza’s downward slash, but the cunning fiend steps off of ice covered weapon and brings his glowing sword down upon Para’s crown. There was hardly enough time to move, but somehow, Para did. Darting back, he escaped with a diagonal scratch across his breast plate. Taken aback, he withdraws. With a single, terrifying motion, Para shatters the ice covering his sword. Icicles fall from his hair and body.

 

<i>Sudden darkness fills the sky, and hides the day</i>

 

Light panting was all that was audible. Two pair of eyes danced with an eerie, fearful, luminescent glow. Two warriors stood face to face, their feet resting on desecrated grounds where life had so recently bloomed like the flower of creation. Pain and death were all about them.

 

Frieza sent up a vehement roar to the heavens. Every being vibrated as he summoned the light from within. He emerged full of new life, awash in pure spiritual energy.

 

Para was unimpressed. No surprise.

 

Once more, Frieza reached into Pseudo space. This time, the item he procured was barely visible in the dim luminance. A small black spheroid, oddly marked. Manifesting his new power into speed, the cold reigning king heaves it at Para with all his will. Para stares at it, certain it is a joke, though wary as any seasoned warrior would be. Then the object begins to shine, in such a way that it begins to entrance him, in such a way that it begins to pain him. He is overcome by a strange sensation. Suddenly, he is filled with an irrational fear. He seeks to move, but his muscles will not obey. Unable to dodge, the Holy Hand Grenade makes contact, and explodes in a flash of Godly light. He is suddenly engulfed in flames of agony. The darkness within him is polluted by light, and he feels a God like wrath upon him. For a perceptual eternity, he hangs in spiritual and physical anguish, inner demons wailing with pain and protest alike.

 

<i> Though the fires have set me free,

From the clouds that cover me </i>

 

His thoughts and emotions are torn asunder, replaced by a confusing spiral of unrelenting compassion and justice, who find Para's besieged body to be an excellent focal point. The more he struggles against the pain, the further in he sinks. His flesh bubbles, irradiated. Blood boils. His eyes roll back into his head, and he falls writhing in agony. The pain, the confusion, everything fades into blackness, as his consciousness is returned to the void that is their battlefield. Frieza shows neither elation nor contempt. Something still whispers inaudibly to him, revealing something he already knows.

 

But the darkness was never defiled.

 

<i>I can’t look away,

I can’t look away</i>

 

Dang... talk about lengthy. Very well written.

So the Ginyu Force is now in the battle.

 

Chibi can't stop looking through the seeing pool. "Look at that! It looks just like outside of your house!" He says to his master. But the Lord of Nightmares was not to be found. He had left into the sea, shining gold as an evil light in the darkness. He must be being summoned on one of the other three layers of this world... Chibi thought. But with his master gone, only the faintly glowing Chibi brought light to the cabin. He touches the pool, and a beam of light appeared in the darkness. "Aha, so that's how it works." He mutters to himself. He puts his hands together. If this can transfer energy from here to me, then it should be good enough for this! He thought again. "BOOM BRAZER!" He shouts, putting both his hands out infront of him, firing a ball of dark and fiery energy through the pool. It came to the fourth layer of the world in a golden beam of light, like all things from the sea of chaos do.

Darkness... Complete darkness Chibi though, looking at his Boom Brazer float down, not intending to hit anybody. "Bwahahahaha!" He laughs to himself maniacly, as the fourth layer started becoming a new, seperate fifth layer. "Shabrigadu is trapped in his world." He says, evilly. "Looks like I'm the next in line for being the Demon Lord." He smirked. A gleam in his eye shined through the darkness.

 

The dark lord of hell crumbled to the ground, keeping his body upright with his hands. Blood dripped down his lips, a skill he had learned in his training was a way to kill himself rather than to accept being turned. His black tongue slithered out and swallowed back the blood. His hands clutched for the rubble underneath his gauntlet covered palms. The spikes that ran along across his hands perked up, feeling the pain of their master. He tried to comprehend and drive away these feelings of compassion, these feelings of kindness, but in his black heart he had never been shown that realm. He never cared to delve further into it besides their names. He swore two lights were growing brighter in his head, and his whole body screamed with the pain. A low growl emitted from his throat, more blood running to the ground.

"The defiled... never turn..." He slowly spoke, raising his body, ignoring the intense pain. He felt right at home with the intense agony. The training he went through while he was younger had adapted him to the negative feeling. But what really bothered him was the feelings on the positive side of the karma scale. One might say it was the light at the end of the tunnel. But the difference was, he was that black tunnel. The light would never go farther than the end. He would never go farther than the end. At that line the two forces always fought. This was why he always loved this planet. Never could each kill the other, but the darkness always one. It always won for it was the blood lust. It was the battle even the angels fought. The light around him slowly began to dim. As it faded, a black line was drawn between them. His snake like black tongue whipped out again, consuming back the blood he had lost.

"The defiled cannot turn for the only way to turn something is through the defiled methods. This is why I cannot be killed by your means." The dark lord laughed. He stretched his hands, his armor seemed to bleed with each movement. The gems dotting his hands sunk back on, leaving bare gauntlets. Slowly, a large green gem rose out from his chest, a mass of black blood following behind it. It stood only a few centimeters above the armor, but it was clearly there. From it, one could see a mass of mist. Something obviously was in there. Something was obviously more than just one thing. A small net of faces ran across the gem, disappearing behind his armor. Para tilted his head back and stared up at the sky. The sun had long since fallen again, and the stars lay the only dim light across the battle field other crimson colored moon.

"So many stars, don't you think? Each one is much like that shining light of hope. Every day more come along due to people like you." Para spoke, a star lit up above Friez.

"And everyday hope is destroyed by people like me. An endless cycle. But... it's a bit forceful that hope comes, isn't it?" The dark lord spoke, a cruel smile coming along his face. A star that shone brilliantly with light above him violently disappeared, never to return again.

"People with hearts made of gold and people with hearts made of acid. Very similar people though. Using the medium of war they try and push back the other... neither understanding the balance." Para said, it sounded as if a lecture was starting. He slowly tilted his head back down to eye level with the prince.

"Do you understand that balance is the question? Do you understand the fact that neither side is right?" The dark lord questioned. If one could force his eyes back into position, they might have seen the ominous and bloody twinkle in the pupils.

"Do you understand the fact your precious righteousness is not all people think it to be?"

 

(Sub) Oh for cripes sake someone either destroy the friggin city already or I'm gonna have to start fighting again.

 

OOC:... the city is wasted. All that remains are the few scraps of building.

 

(Sub) well just hurry up and finish this topic so we can have another one

 

I'm readin' that an' I'm gettin' inspired to do a fic about the next topic we do like this.

Oh an' Friez, I updated Spades and in the next week I'll give ya'll the new chapters of Hazard okay?

If the rest of you want to check out my fics, go onto Fanfiction.net and look for Crimson Redstreak, my author name.

And as far as Sub is concerned: the damage to the city is immense. Most of the city is glassed. As soon as I set off that Prism bomb I glassed like the whole downtown area. The residential areas are in ruins. The air is barely brerathable. And worst of all...someone destroyed the bar.

***

The sound of mic interference filled the sky as Ace sat on the floating remnants of a thirty-five story skyscraper. In his hands was a red and green shimmering guitar plugged into two immense speakers that sat on either side of the building. Behind him was Shiro, setting up his drums and keyboard.

"Okay lets set this off right, MAN!!!" Ace's voice bellowed, blasting eardrums across Metro. "Random Insanity is back to crack on your knack for destruction of the flick and flack that was this city bellow us! I wanna tribute the souls that didn't make it, ya know!!"

He looked back at Shiro and hit one of his cymbals with his hand. "Let's do this right. I don't wanna end up in the cretaceous period! 1-2!! 1, 2, 3, 4!!!"

The speakers burst open with the playing of the loudest song ever composed. Ace's own written masterpeice or nightmare: MAN!!! (It's a midi I did a few weeks ago) The hypersonic screeches of Ace's ax and the low beat of Shiro's drums and synth bass blasted into the sky. Magma erupted from the crust beneath the glassed caldera and filled it halfway to the brim, sinking more of the city down into more pits.

Finally the spellsong ended and Ace fretted the guitar and led into Saliva's 'Always'. The ground shook with the intermitant beat of the song as truck sized boulders rose into the sky. The world became a more bizzare place as most of the coal deep beneath the city rose up and immediately condensed into shimmering yellow and clear diamonds. Ace dragged one note on his guitar and added another verse to the song, making the shimmering debris swirl about in an earthen tempest. A brown and silver cyclone around the city.

 

OOC: RPG topics like this always make me want to get back to work on that story I was working on that never even got past the first few pages @_@

 

Beyond the city in a clearing a white porcupine stood on the ground. He floated up and opened its eyes, beginning to sense everything that was going on around him. After just seconds he knew everything going on in the city, the locations of all the fighters, even who would possibly pose him the biggest threat. He knew which ones were occupied, and which were not fighting at all.

Nemotan chose his first target.

He flew up into the sky, in no hurry at all. His arms were crossed over his chest and he had a slight smirk on his face. His sleek white body glowed. In his eyes were each a single small light grey pupil, but with unmatchable eyesight.

He stopped above the city about fifty yards from the sea of chaos, and looked up.

"CHIBI!!!" His voice boomed through the night air.

"SHOW YOURSELF!!!" He hovered in that spot, waiting, still looking up.

 

On a rather irrelivant note, the city in not completly destroyed. The 18 miles around me and Para are gone, and so is downtown where Ace is, but this is a big city. There are still a few nooks in the secluded corners that stand (barely).

Nemo - The Ginyu force in NOT here. The Ginyu force consists of five guys. This is part of the royal army.

Sub - Why not join in anyway? Perhaps team up with Nemo against Chibi (now THAT'S an interesting combination)?

Para - I commend you. This is what I've wanted all along. You've both challanged and inspired me. And at the best possible moment. My reply will reflect this. I promise something much more potent than what I just put up, which even now I see as flawed. However, I won't be starting it now. I've much to do. And even when I do start it, it will take quite some time.

In the mean time, everyone else has the Zerg and Chibi to occupy them. Feel free to use my troops wherever you want.

 

OOC: The honor is all mine, friez. You're a remarkable RPer. This'll be an interesting battle, and by the end of this topic I plan to save it all.

 

Chibi noticed Nemotan in the pool. Once again, the golden beam shined down. "Sorry, but I have to watch over this place until my master get's back." He said. "It has no light here, no light can be given here. It is the shadows of the five layers of the world. I only give light, because my master is the supreme darkness, yet he is also the giver of light, without him here, I cannot find the portal." He explained. "But..." He looked around a bit. "There's always Al, or Karmis." He had be preparing to take over as a Demon Lord before Nemotan interupted him. "Or you could dodge some of this!" He shouts. "BOOM BRAZER!" The same dark energy fires fro his hands rapidly, 10 bolts of evil fired down at the white porcupine. "And I'm still not done eating." He said, walking away from the pool, sealing the Sea of Chaos while he eats.

 

Frieza - Eh, well Dodoria and Zarbon are part of tthe Ginyu force.... wait... no they're not. >_< They're your right hand dudes.
~~~
To put it frankly, the Nemotan was not ammused at all, and was beginning to show Tan's impatience. The white creature didn't move as the shots closed in, and Chibi started to get hopeful as he poured sauce on a fresh bowl of spaghetti.

At the last possible instant, a blue energy sheild appeared around the porcupine, abosrbing the blows. The shield then shrunk into a ball in front of Nemotan. Without moving a muscle, he had done all this, and then shot the blue ball back at the Sea of Chaos with the same strength of all ten shots that Chibi had fired.

 

(He said, walking away from the pool, sealing the Sea of Chaos while he eats. The to see from the Sea of Chaos, it has to be open. When nobody is looking, it seals.)

Chib started eating his plate of spaghetti, quite quickly actually. From the house, he noticed the Boom Brazers flying from the shadow of the Fifth Layer. "Looks like he didn't like that one..." He said. "Once I'm a full Demon Lord, I'll have my own spell, which should be powerful enough to entertain him." He said to himself again, eating again.

 

It wasn't meant to really hurt anything at all, but thanks for the insight.

 

Lemme just get this all straight right now so I don't get kapowied.

Para vs. Freiza.

Chibi vs. Nemo(Nemoten)

Ace & Shiro tryin to put the world around us back together. Please don't try and kill me iff I mess up the setting by bringing most of the city back tomorrow. That'll mean forcibly reversing time...and Friez knows that means reversing your molecules and stuff in time and reliving your pain and injuries caused in this timeline before the first person in the city was killed.

Feel free to try an interrupt the spellsong if you want...but trust me, I got some stuff layin' to the side in case you do.

 

And Z and Karmis. Not sure what FR's doin' right now.

 

OOC: May I ask the question, but how the hell do you plan to alter the space time continuim through a song? Much less, how do you plan to do it.

 

(OOC: Er.. Did Z ever respond to my attack? If not, can I get off yet? I wanna show Para that I'm useful in times of war. That way I get to blow more crap up.)

 

Chibi suddenly felt a jolt of energy. He was no longer golden, or shined golden. He looked as he normally did. Black trenchcoat, deep red pants, red shirt, mummy bandages, Katar, and everything. He looked around. There was still light. "I am an offical Demon Lord." He said, laughing. "I am Shadow-Fighter Chibi Shadow!" He shouts, flaring the house with silver magic energy. He stepped infront of the Seeing Pool and started chanting. "Darkness in which evil dwells, burning like the flames of hell; shining silver on the Sea of Chaos..." His energy growed as he looked closer at the seeing pool. Nemotan hadn't moved since the Boom Brazers. Chibi jumped through the pool, head first. The normal golden beam was silver this time. Chibi floated by the white porcupine. "Are you ready for my personal spell?!" He shouts. His energy blasted at the opening of the Sea of Chaos, closing it yet again from his Master's sight. He might not like this fight... He thought.

 

(OOC: Er.. Did Z ever respond to my attack? If not, can I get off yet? I wanna show Para that
I'm useful in times of war. That way I get to blow more crap up.)

>_> to be honest, I thought that was just a joke. You can leave him if you wish.
~~~
"Talk is cheap." Nemotan responded and went into action. He moved toward Chibi, so fast a sonic boom followed him, spun halfway around and shoved his right airblade into The Assassin's face. As programmed, the airblades ignited as soon as the porcupine went into motion scorching Chibi's face, though only minimal burns were received.

Nemotan followed up by doing a complete front flip and bringing both his hands down into Chibi's exposed gut in the form of fists.

 

(OOC: That's the beauty of Karmis. He's a joke character, but he has his times.)

Only about half a minute after attaching, he detach out of boredom. "Darn ADD. Ah well, that should do the trick." He laughed. "I'm sure you're confused. Lemme show my destructive power." He took a metal pole, and within a minute it dissolved in his hands. "You see, I'm an acid, unlike that Chaos. That hand should be crippled, seeing how very few materials can withstand it. Just be glad I was nice enough to go for the wrist." He laughed again. "Ah, the element of surprise. Beautiful."

 

Z holds up his hand, uninjured. "I'm amused to any poisons, chemicals, or otherwise harmful potents. Just thought I'd give ya the heads up incase you wanted to try that again."

 

OOC:I'll assume you meant immune and not amused.)

Karmis smiled. "Good. I was hoping that wouldn't affect you much, but I wish it would have done something. Well, to be a gentleman, I'll let it go blow for blow. It's your turn." Karmis hoped that Z did not know anatomy of Water(ish) Spirits, because Z could win the battle in one or two hits if he did.

 

Chibi laughed. "Fire?" he asked. "Didn't you people learn before?! I ABSORB fire!" He says holding his hands above his head. Chibi became transparent, like a shadow, and flames burth around him. The Shadow of Chibi and the flames combines into a single ball of dark fire. Chibi became non-transparent again. "Don't want to kill you right away" he said. His dark inferno blasted up with savage behavior. "SHADOW INFERO!" He shouts. The blast of evil fire was throws at Nemotan, surrounded by some oof the earlier absorbed Giga Slave. Chibi's muscles tightened, his eyes left his emotionless look, to a very angry expression. His katar glowed with the Shadow Fighter's new power. The flame exploded into many infernos, with a Ragna Blade in the middle.

(Ragna Blade is a very low powered Giga Slave)

 

In response to Para's question. I have a theory that time exists on a different plane of existance than we do. A less tangible thing than you'd expect unless you notice that it moves around you slowly of fast. So how do you mess with time and space forcibly without it running out of control? You pluck at it with precision tuning and certain wavelengths of energy. Instead of using a machine or doing it myself, I incorperate music to do so for me. After all, a song is no more than a series of notes and words and patterns of soundwaves that provokes a response in the listeners. If you can do that with people, why not with elements and forces of nature such as time?

 

(OOC:I'll assume you meant immune and not amused.)

Uh... yeah.
~~~
"I don't really know the anatomy of a water being... but I do know a thing or two about water." Z charged at Karmis and sliced through his abdomen with his staff.

"Fool!" Karmis said. "I'm made of water! Stuff goes right through me!" He turned around to face Z, who was smiling with his staff straight up toward the sky.

"You're missing the point of the attack." A lightning bolt shot down from the sky into Z's staff, and the electricity surrounded the gold rod. Z pulled his staff down, and thrusted it toward his enemy. From the end shot a lightning bolt scatter, aimed just in Karmis's general direction.

 

Karmis was not impressed. "Wow. One of my many weaknesses. Lightning, fire, ice, et cetera. It's not very impressive to figure out one of them." Karmis jumps into the air, and turns on his hover shoes. "A gift from DP. It's amazing how useful 'useless' information can be." Karmis hovers up to the height of about a 15-floor building. "That should do it. Perhaps this requires a weapon after all though."

 

just noticed I've been writing in past tense... but at the start I was writing in present tense.
~~~
Z floated up to meet Karmis's eyes, "It's your move."

 

(OOC: It has something to do with the idea that they're inanimate and spiritless. The Gaia's themselves, or spirits of the planets, are living. A plane of existance or human mesurement isn't. I now understand the idea of music to make magic, but not the time idea.

 

"Hmm...Well, this is a rock, not to mention the hard place. I think I need one of my weapons, but I don't want to go against my word. Let's see how long I can last without weapons." Karmis boosts quickly towards Z, and in front of him does a kick flip. The boosters kick into an overdriven state and shoot more exhaust and fire than needed to stay in the air right as the kick flip is at the same level as Z's face. Karmis recovers after the overdrive knocks him back, and says, "Hopefully under all the exhaust there's a seriously torched man. I just hope he's not immune to fire."

 

Z didn't move an inch. He floated in the same spot as he had been, and when the exaust cleared, his face was revealed covered in black. He coughed, sending a small puff of black off his face, and then shook his head hard to get rid of the rest.

"To be honest," He said, "That was more annoying than anything. Although I'm not immune to fire, like some other things, I've experienced much worse and know how to handle burns. Um... I kinda runnin' short on ideas for the moment, so you can take another shot if you want, or wait a few moments.

(OOC: Three things:

1. What does OOC stand for? I've been wondering this the entire time, but only figured out it was for a side note or something.

2. I am starting to run a little short on ideas for attacks.

3. Don't worry Chib, I haven't forgotten about you. Just taking a while to write up my attack for you.

 

I take a scientific approach to things like that. I'm not gonna stuff my opinions or theories down someone else's neck like some other poepe would. 'To each man his own', I say. I'm just not that spiritual when I write.

 

(1.) OOC=Out of Charecter. 2.) Me too. I just made up Shadow Inferno in an ANI =P 3.) Well, that's nice to know. I feel the special. ^^)

The Knight of Abyss, who had been knocked out for basicly the ENTIRE FIGHT twitched. Once. Twice. Thrice. He struggled to get up. A hole in his armor revealed a big gash in his shoulder. "This.. Is... Won..der...ful..." He managed to say. "Chibi... Became... Demon... Lor..d..." The dark knight slowly got up and limped to where the Sanctuary had been. He found a blue gem left there with a note by it. "If you're reading this, you're either Chibi or KOB. We left this in case Chibi does something drastic or if you're in too much pain." The note read. The black soldior grabbed the blue gem, crushed it, and was healed. "I cannot fight, but I can help with these things left by the group." He murmered. He sat down and looked towards Chibi and Nemotan.

 

OOC...Eeep...

This is what a few day's absense brings you O_O...
Umm, I have to say I don't mind people controlling me (like Frieza did, although part of me think's that's revenge for controlling Ace..) especially because I'm off the internet for a while now. I won't be on for a long while now, I thought I should tell that...This might be my last post for
awhile
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After complying with the message, Maxim was left confused. He knew he had to keep fighting, but now he was lost in his mind... he started to walk, then triped, and laned flat on his face, and blanked out.(Flashback)
Reid: what operating level is he?
Scientist#1: 99.98% Professer
Scientist#2: Hey, his life support is fading!
Reid: It's natural at this step, it will start up again when the software finishes uploading...(FastForward)
Reid: Maxim, do you know who you are?
Maxim:.. no...
Reid: you are a robot, and your purpose is to fight. You must go around and fight our enemies. You are our ultimate weapon.
Maxim: But what if I am destroyed?
Reid: your system can self repair most damage you recive, even if it is a very high level of damage. What is most important is you learn how to fight well. Do that, and you will be complete.
Maxim: Right... I... Understand. I must be complete. I must fight!
Reid: Yes. we will give you the weapons... and the power.(end)

Maxim grips his sword and grits his teeth with feirceness in his eyes. He wasn't going to let an army of Monsters get in the way of him being at peace. A robot must fulfil it's purpose. without the purpose, it is a falure. Where will it end? he wasn't sure, but he began to run. run toward his enemy, ready to annahalate it. Even if Reid died years ago. even if the Agency was destroyed. He was going to fight-

 

Hmm, I always thought OOC= Out of Context.... bah what the hey.

 

Karmis shuts one booster off, then turns upside-down while keeping other booster on and at the same place. He starts to turn his head clockwise and says, "Aw, you're short of ideas? Then this won't be any fun. Best just finish this now." He descends down to his sack of weapons, and yells to Z, "You sure now? I'll let you have another chance, cuz chances are that this is gonna be over with all this bloodshed."

 

(OOC: I've never faught as Z before in an RPG, so that's part of the reason.)
~~~
"Alright. But you asked for it." Z teleported behind Karmis for a surprise attack. Before Karmis could react, Z shoved his staff straight through Karmis's back and out his gut.

"You still don't get it do you?" Karmis turned around as the hole in his abdomen sealed itself.

"No, you still don't get it!" Karmis saw the purple energy exploding around Z's right arm and realized all too late that the stab was just a short distraction. Z put his black gloved right hand in Karmis's face.

"FINAL BREATH!!!

The massive, purple beam erupted from his hand, though not as huge as the first due to lack of preparation time. Still though, there was no way Karmis would be able to escape the attack as it enveloped his being, and any chance he had of getting away. In a heart-beat, the mass had eaten up the street and any remains of building beside them. The wizard maintained control of his beast, and it flew into the side of a mountain, and carved a tunnel through to the other side.

Z finally let the beam go along on its own, and sat down to catch his breath.

 

Just realized somethin', on Christmas this topic will have been around for two months.

 

(Ace Shot 9000x) (OOC: I just tried to read all of what was going on, and failed miserably. If I get something wrong, blame the walrus)
Ace runs in just in time to see Karmis be destroyed. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I WILL AVENGE THEE!" Then Ace began randomly blowing stuff up with one of his multiple guns. "DIE!"

 

Ace sees that no one is there, so he chooses to take a nap, hoping that this foolish decision will not result in death, pain, or wounds inficted by the enemy.

 

Well, yesm almost everything you did was wrong. Firstly, there's someone else named Ace, so you should refer to yourself some other way. Second, I doubt Karmis was destroyed.

 

The dark knight looks at the damage done to Karmis. "Oh well... I know what will happen." He said, turning to the mountain. "Quality work, right there, oh yes..." KOB walked over to Karmis' "remains", spotted ab object, and poked it. "Get up already." He whispered. "I need something to eat popcorn to." Walking back to his spot, he picked up his popcorn and waited.

 

I still haven't started writing the attack to counter yours... >.>;;

I know what I'm going to do as far as countering your shot, but don't know what I'm going to do myself...

 

At the time, all that remained of Karmis is his nucleus. As he starts to reform he states, "Wow. I gotta admit, I am impressed. I doubt that I'll be able to defeat you, but the only thing I have to lose is my life." As he his torso and head finish reforming, he realizes that he has only one eye at the moment. He sees the other embedded into a tree about 400 yards away. As he picks it up, he says, "Ugh, this one is practically useless now. It's cracked and all. That attack could be the end of me....If, as it looks, it didn't drain your energy so much."

(OOC: Sorry, gotta go. First present opening for me. I'll be back on Christmas day if I'm not back tomorrow. Again, sorry for jamming the RPG.)

 

"Perfect chance to get back some energy..." Z thought. He made a rip into another dimmension, and stuck his hand in and began groping around. "Nemotan Re-... wha-?" He groped some more. "I know I had it in here... It couldn't have left."

He smacked his forhead, "DUH!" Z closed the dimmension and looked over to where Tan and Nemo had fused. "It's still there!" He started running toward the field.

(OOC: I'll eventually get around to writing Nemotan's attack. I know what I'm going to do, and it shouldn't take too long, but I've just been lazy.)

 

(OOC: It's about stinkin' time, here ya go Chib Chib.)

Nemotan hovered beneath the oncoming attack, and looked at it for a moment.

"Fire? Not gonna work on me." He said. His voice was totally normal, but the sound was projected with intense volume. The porcupine finally uncrossed his arms, and took a deep breath in, his chest bulging out toward. When it seemed he could no longer continue sucking air in, Nemotan closed his mouth and cheeks expanded like small balloons.

The white one opened his lips a crack, and then let his jaw drop. From within his body came a title wave of H2O, roaring up toward Chibi's flames. As fire met water, an eruption of steam began spreading out in all directions.

His fire problem taken care of, Nemotan began preparing for the Ragna Blade. He pointed his white hands toward the energy, forefingers and thumbs touching, creating a triangle. Inside the triangle was a liquidy-looking blue energy that connected to all the parts of his fingers making a bluish window to look through. The blue began to become denser, and as it became almost impossible to look through, Nemotan through the bluish energy out toward the Ragna Blade.

The blue began spreading like a net to catch the attack, but with it's incredible speed, the Ragna Blade continued moving as it made contact with the net. Nemotan tried to fly up out of the way of being hit, but was not quick enough and was knocked back. He was very fortunate that the attack didn't explode on contact, but he still had to finish capturing his prey.

Nemotan recovered from the shock, and flew as quickly as he could to where the four corners of his net were meeting, and grabbed hold of them just in time to keep the Ragna Blade from coming back out.

The porcupine began wrestling with the net, tugging and pulling it until all the ends finally closed, at which point he began to focus his energy into shrinking it down to the size of a tennis ball. This took only a few seconds, and the result was a glowing blue energy ball with a very bright shining core.

Nemotan turned toward Chibi and hovered up to meet his eye level, tossing the ball up and down in his right hand.

"Let's play catch shall we? This ball weighs about as much as an average car, so naturally it's hard to handle. If it hits something too hard, it explodes with the same force as whatever that attack was it absorbed, so you have to catch it lightly."

Nemotan tossed the blue into the air, caught it with his left hand, brought the ball back as far as he could, and released his fastest throw toward Chibi, and a sonic boom rang out as it reached its maximum speed.

 

OOc: Happy holidays ya'll! I got drunk off the egg nog a little. And a little drink I call the Solid Snake. Made and drank it myself.

1 ounce of Green Apple martini
1 ounce of vodka (straight up)
1 1/2 cup of Hawaiian Punch (had to fool the relatives with some color so they wouldn't want/take any)
2 ounces of Lemon juice
1 gram of whiskey

It's intensely sour and mildly intoxicating. The sting of the drink keeps you sober until the last drop. Afterward you'll be extremely loose and disoriented. That's why it's called a Solid Snake. It sneaks up on you, surprises you, and you don't quite forget the encounter ya had with it.

 

Lemon juice... that would be interesting with all that other stuff.

 

I guess I'm kinda holding us up, huh? Sorry, I'm so close to finishing this game. I'll work on it saturday. I just really want to finish this so that I can get out of this room I've locked myself in...and start the 20 or so comics I have scripted.

 

Chibi stared at the ball came closer and closer to him. "Yay! Catch!" He said, reaching into his pocket. He pulled out a Poring, the small round pink jelly monster. He looked at the Poring, it looked hungry. He threw the Poring at the ball as fast as he could. (Porings absorb small objects to eat. And they're so squishy. >_> I dunno what would happen if it was absorbed, so uhh...)

 

It is a new year. And with this newness comes change... I'll be around a lot more at this time of night from now on. About thrice or more a week.

 

Ok...the bad new is that fate was against me, and I wasn't able to work on it Saterday or Sunday. The good new is...I finished my game. Now I'll have much more free time, and hopefully this will get done soon.

 

It is done...but I won't post it yet. I find it best to wait a few days or so to check it. It's easier to see any faults after the experience.

Para, I must ask something of you. Do you have an ending planned for this battle? If indeed your heart is set on some idea of yours, then I will gladly give you the final words, as it is your battle after all, and it would be right and proper for you to finish it. I ask, however, that you delay it for one more post. You may have noticed that I've been establishing themes and building symbolism thus far, and literary laws state that I must bring them to full fruition.

Perhaps our ideas may yet again intertwine, and our ending visions may meet...perhaps some subtle hint or guide, that I might know how to array my climactic attack? It would certainly make the overall battle more enjoyable to read.

 

FRUITION!

 

Ending idea... I generally leave that open.

 

 

 

 

Oh. Back when you said "This'll be an interesting battle, and by the end of this topic I plan to save it all." I thought you were hinting at something. Well then, I won't hold back!
-----------------------------------------------------------

Heaven and Earth were dead within the 18 mile wasteland of the two monsters. As the war trudged on, dusk had subsided to night. Smoke and ash mixed with the dark sky. Shadow dancing with shadow.

 

Clouds far darker than any found in nature had gathered in the wake of the destruction, never again to settle upon the world they had once known. Debris filled the sky, carrying the blasted souls of the innocent lost but never forgotten. The dusty air itself carried their voices. The city denizens, both living and dead, clung desperately to hope. As the world about them was rent to nothing, it was all they could do. Somehow, they believed that they and their world might yet be avenged. Amidst the pain, death, and darkness, they dreamed that somehow, this band of cold hearted mercenaries would save them from this demon. They sent their pleas on high, praying that somehow their city could be restored. That the lost could be returned. Hope was all they had.

 

Hope could be a most cruel fate.

 

Frieza’s expression was far from expected. Para was unsure, even disturbed in some strange way. Frieza was aghast! His eyes stared aimlessly into infinity. They flickered like a bloody candle caught in the wind. His mouth hung open as though trying to say something, though unsure of what it was. His words…something had frozen the king of ice. Para had stirred something. Something deep inside Frieza, something that had been quietly nagging him from the moment he’d met this miserable excuse for a creature, yet it still hung beyond his grasp, taunting him.

 

The defiled can never be turned.

 

Shock, even fear gripped his delicate form. Frieza felt as though his body was no longer his own. It was as if his consciousness was floating across an ocean. He sees the world pass before him, and himself within it, though he is unable to touch the image, unable to alter its course. Such were the muddled sensations the cosmic emperor lived, as he struggled against himself, seeking an answer.

 

What is wrong with me, he thought. Why have his words so stirred me? Surely I’ve heard them spoken hundreds of times before. Why now? What is it about this being that is so different?

 

And everyday hope is destroyed by people like me. An endless cycle.

 

Could it be true? Were they just dancers in an endless ballet of shades? Pawns in some game for the amusement of immortals?! Were they even that? Para’s words continued to ring through Frieza’s mind.

 

Using the medium of war they try and push back the other... neither understanding the balance.

 

The earth around them began to crack under its own weight. The glow on the horizon became ever dimmer. And still, Frieza trembled in spite of himself. Was it all for naught? Was this a meaningless battle from which there could be no victor?…then why was the darkness so beautiful?

 

The defiled can never be turned.

 

Frieza continued to stumble in self-doubt, searching. And then, all at once, it hit him. He saw the truth. The whispers that had plagued him finally made themselves known, and he saw. It was all too nauseatingly clear.

 

They were exactly the same.

 

How could it be so? How could he and this miserable creature have anything in common?! But it was undeniable. Here they stood, each fighting for selfish reasons, each with their soulless armies slaying and being slain, neither of them truly caring about the city’s fate, in a land as dark as their own hearts.

 

Frieza’s arms fell limp. His body dropped to its knees. His eyes were dead. Was he truly so alike to this horrid wretch? Indeed, he had ended more lives than most ever come to know. And indeed, this very day he’d callously slaughtered whatever inhabitants might have remained here, and he would continue to kill until his pride was satiated.

 

Para stood victorious over the dead land. What dim light had remained was now gone, and his foe was fallen. He looked on in contempt of this pitiful display, and prepared to end it. But the alien prince was not yet finished.

 

“Is my heart then some obsidian stone? Is it acid that flows through my veins?…Am I so hopeless and wretched as this abomination?”

 

…

 

NO!

 

Frieza’s eyes exploded suddenly with new life. So full and radiant were they that Para stopped in his tracks. Slowly he rose, spirit flowing from his every movement. At last, it was becoming clear. How could he have been so blind? Finally, he’d remembered that which he’d known all along.

 

Perpetual awakening.

 

He stared at Para, and the darkness that had entwined itself around him. He saw it in all its beauty; in all its malice and glory. He understood it too. He embraced it, while simultaneously negating it inwardly. Frequencies beyond human perception coursed over his body lightly as he reflected.

 

“Dark and light…yes, I see it now. Perfect grace, both equally beautiful.”

 

With these thoughts, he stared into the silence of the void, through it, to its very being. Within it, he saw the nature of the dark, the eyes of the beast amidst a starry sky, the spirit of survival. He saw the mirror, and he saw through it, all twinkling amidst the billowing ruin of this tragic city, lost of light, glorious in its fall. He saw all of this, and beyond to infinity.

 

Even in darkness, there can be found beauty.

 

Beauty instills power; power derived from the soul. As his spirit came alive in response to the nature of the scene, this dark, this light, this love, Frieza fed on it, drinking in the grandeur.

 

Balance…light and dark, each struggling against the other. Darkness could bring suffering to the light. Did darkness then have victory?

 

Victory is in the eye of the beholder.

 

The absence of Nature about them came to be. The dust, the death, all of the pain and bloodshed phased in and out of existence. Similarly, the opposite arose with it. The whole of undeniable truth, unending love, and unyielding courage joins in harmony. Of all things living. Dark and Light, flowing together in peace and turmoil, infinitely majestic.

 

This too Frieza seemed to take in. His body quaked with some unseen force. Para could feel his own essence vibrating in rhythm with something all about him, yet nowhere to be found. He began to sense a change in Frieza’s energy. Still Frieza, yet somehow altered. It was certainly stronger, as was demonstrated by the violently trembling ground and the wildly roaring sky.

 

“A balance that can never be broken,” he continued pondering, “In futility do they fight? Light and Dark, unable to touch, seeking only to destroy the other, neither able to exist without the other?”

 

“I am not some shade or color”.

 

Fiercer and brighter still ascended the light. Crimson flecks of radiance streamed from Frieza’s eyes as tears, flashing deeply, as a shattered mirror in a liquid sea of light. Frieza’s eyes fell callous upon his mortal foe, upon creation. He felt the life and death around him. His friends, his brothers, and his foes, all focused in the ancient medium of combat. He felt the intensity of their pain, their pleasure, and their hope. He feasted of its every alignment, emotion, and soul, resounding with it.

 

The strength of the moment lies with you.

 

He who was weak could find strength. He who burned inward could be born. He who’d known hate could know love.

 

To justify,

To magnify,

To realize,

You will always get it back.

 

Frieza reached deep within, grasped the light, and became himself. A vociferous cry roared through the tormented wasteland as he threw his head to the heavens. Ferocious lightning ran madly across the plains, its mighty din shaking the weak to their knees. The earth was riven asunder, cascading streams of rock and ash through the winds. With a decedent cadence, the entire city is consumed in a blinding flash. The spirit alone immediately ends all battles. Soldiers fall in mid-strike. All eyes move to the oblivion in the city’s heart, and within its abyssal focus, they see a field of blinding white, swelling around an immaculate figure of gold.

 

Frieza?! No! But then, it had to be. That energy; those eyes were unmistakable. The dazzling white snake stood amidst a gilded shade. Its previously violet features now sported a pristine, deep gold color. Its wounds were gone. Its eyes were narrow, but bright. It floated with arms crossed, firm and unmoving. Its small mouth carried no expression, stolid as the sun. It held before it a blade, now also covered in an endless golden coat. Frieza turned to his bewildered enemy, eyes awash with unquenchable fire, form aglow with immaculate might.

 

Para’s body trembled in spite of himself. His eyes burned like acid at the sight of this…this being! His very blood sputtered in his veins. He did not know, nor was he capable of comprehending what had just occurred.

 

Finally, after what was an eternity for the damned and fallen, light had pierced the darkness. One sole light, face to face with one true darkness. It had been there all the time; it had only needed a dark enough place to be seen.

 

Para had been wrong, though he would never know it. The defiled could be turned. Before his very eyes, one just had been.

 

"Beautiful, you continue to play everything according to plan. There's is never more and never less than the beginning." Para laughed. It wasn't a common evil laugh, it wasn't monotone or deep. It carried no sound. It was something else, ethereal in nature. He smirked at the display of lights, and the soldier before him. He'd done this time and time before. Played soldiers for his own cause. Their own pride would always control them.

"I see little reason to continue seeing as you've put on the strain I need. I'm sure your blood aches for battle, though. I will not hesitate to draw from my own pool." Para tilted his head down as the green gem in his chest begin to pump energy through out his body. His skin began to turn black with corruption, some sort of green mist like liquid dripping from his mouth. His white eyes began to turn full red, stained with the blood of a thousand fallen. His long black hair began to spread, seeming to grow unkept within a very quick amount of time. He was feeding off the damned souls he had collected, the tormented innocent. The unnatural venom dripped down from his mouth, washing a small steam down his armor. It dropped to the ground into a small puddle. The dark lord wiped his lip as the ground beneath began to rot with the corruption that created his entity.

"Even in the name of the land you weaken it. Your death will be most pleasing. The corruption of your soul. It just fills me with delight. With you I shall continue on with my mission." Para muttered to himself. He could feel his effects on Frieza had indeed been what he aimed for. The tax on the land should be enough to destroy it, and that would set off the trigger he needed. He just currently needed a bit more time before he could accomplish what he was attempt to fully do. Para extended his arm out, the hand tilting down on the wrist. It seemed to be grasping at a hilt, but the sword didn't seem to be there.

"Come to my aid, Fate of the Lich. I require your services once more." Para slightly chanted. The water vapors around his hand began to freeze, first forming an icy mist. It began to form a blade and quickly froze all the way down to the hilt. A simple long blade made of ice. Soon it began to become thicker and sharper, spikes at the end coming out. Each ice spiked was aimed a diagonal direction, away from the blade and towards the holder. The spikes created a sort of crater protection around the hand. The air in a half inch vicinity of the sword was stuck in an ice vapor mist, obviously hinting that the blade would cause gangrene if held too long by mortal hands.

"Can you tell me the three things that create some of the greatest creations of mankind?"

 

The being which vaguely resembled Frieza was unmoved by the nonsense Para exalted himself with. It stood as it had before, arms at its sides, expressionless, bathed in radiant light.

Something rose from within Para. Some idea entered his mind. There was no voice, nor were there words. Pure meaning seemed to emerge from somewhere inside him. It seemed to say:

"This one is different."

 

"You are still born from the blood of the innocent. I know it won't effect you, but your hands will still be stained no matter how much you repent for. A thousand things of light are spawned from the corruption, and equally the light will dim sometimes. Let me feel your rage. Fill me with your hatred!" Para smiled darkly as he charged Frieza, feeling ready for the assault.

 

(Crunches down on some nachoes and hands some to the other bystanders who stopped fighting to watch Frieza and Para go at it)
Ace: I myself wonder if this'll ever end. I think some people forgot about this place...even if they inadvertantly vaped the bar. Not a lot of activity since it started like weeks ago.

 

Frieza hadn't actually said anything, just in case that wasn't clear)

Para charged with terrible fervor, but his enemy was yet unchanged. Sword by its side, it peered through shining white eyes. It was neither arrogant, nor afraid. Neither hateful, nor merciful. To Para's bloodthirsty gaze, it merely was, and always had been.

As the rainbows dimly reflected in its eyes would soon foretell.

 

OOC: I know, but he was still saying that.)

The creature of corruption followed through with his rush. He spinned the Fate of the Lich out like a spike, lunged into the air, and rammed the blade down vertically as he was coming down to Frieza.

 

Nemotan totally ignored the creature which Chibi had thrown at his ball, and teleported up toward The Assassin. With his new gained power, the white porcupine could accomplish teleportations almost at will. He charged at Chibi, who seemed preoccupied with watching his poring being blasted into oblivion, from the side.

Nemotan brought his arm back ready to throw a punch, as Ace sounded off another note in his song, causing a slight bend in time. All around, motion transformed into slow motion, and this allowed Chibi to see the white blur just in time to lean back as time resumed its normal pace. Nemotan started spinning rapidly from his follow-through, and gathering energy in his hand.

He came out of the spin, and fired five rapid shots. Chibi prepared to block them, which would prove easy, but the porcupine teleported behind him and thrust his heel into The Assassin's back, sending him keeling toward the blasts. Nemotan chased after him into a cloud of dust resulting from the connecting energy blasts, but was met with a knee to his stomach.

The porcupine coughed up a couple drops of blood, then spun around and thrust his elbow into Chibi's jaw, and followed up with a roundhouse to Chibi's back. Fortunately for him, Chibi was able to maneuver his hand to catch it, and the two entered a frenzy of kicks and punches, matching blow for blow, block for block.

"Come one Chibi! I'm not even breaking a sweat!" Nemotan slapped a punch away, and popped the palm of his hand into Chibi's nose, then clasped his hands together and sent him sailing toward the ground with another hit.

 

Getting up, and whiping some blood away from his mouth, Chibi looks at the porcupine. He's... Very powerful. My magic takes too long to cast beside low level magic that can barely phase a Poporing. Chibi thought. His coat flaped in the wind. Wind...? Aha! He scraped at the ground with his Katar, making a shelter. "SANDSTORM!" He shouted. The wind picked up, dust blew around slowly. Rubble from the city budged slightly, and sands began rising from the ground. The grains of sand spread throughout the area, blocking the porcupine's view. The assassin glowed red, and put on his shades. "Adrenaline Rush!" He said, but it was drown out by the wind. The storm died down... Nemotan looks at Chibi's shelter, yet it was empty. "HAMMER FALL!" heard the porcupine from behind. He span around just in time to see Chibi slam a large ghost-like hammer at Nemotan.

 

(OOC: I'm assuming you have a grasp around the hammer-like thing.)

A look of panic shot across Nemotan's face for a fraction of a second, and his eyes glowed red and shot a small laser at Chibi's wrist, and he dropped the hammer. Unfortunately, it already had plenty of momentum and connected perfectly with the porcupine's forehead, sending him hurling toward teh ground.

Momentarily stunned, Nemotan was concentrating more on the pain before slowly realizing he had to stop himself. He flipped himself backward, and began to gain control with his air-blades. Stopping just a few feet above the ground, he floated and looked up at Chibi.

"He won't get away with that again..." He touched his hand to his forehead, no blood, but a big bruise. "He got lucky I was distracted by his stupid sand show..." He felt his forehead again. "That's gonna hurt tomorrow..."

(OOC: I'll make an attack later.)

 

(Galactic magi) O.o something about chicken wings?

 

Uh...

 

The lower enemies seemed to fade out of the scene. the Reenforcements called through Maxim's system were taking effect. all that remained was Para, Chibi, Karmis, and other stronger enemies. Maxim was still lost, in fighiting the almost endless minions. What was he? and why is he here?

He knew that his heart told him to protect all of existance, to allow every being a right to live. and for that belief he would fight.

From the endless hordes he lept. lept at The clashes of Light and Dark. he saw the strife of Freiza and Para, and knew the battle wasn't his, yet all he belived in rested upon it. Kicking off a large ruined steel frame, Maxim turned to another clash. Nemo, an ally of Maxim's for along time, was fighting with Chibi, the great Assassin. But there was something different. Nemo's strength was greater than normal.And his life force signature was different. he was Nemotan, a fusion super level fighter. Maxim remembered the intense battles he had with chibi before, and decided it was time to end the menace of the Assassin with his ally. It was time to take back the city. take back the world. And let the light shine once again.

"Nemotan! let's take him!!"

Maxim charged at Chibi, and Nemotan Flipped back a little, charging his energy and ignoring his injuries. He knew there was only one thing to do at a time like this.

"Ah, so we meet again, Machine" Chibi remarked with a smirk as he gracefully dodged Maxim's tackle

"You're going down Monster!!!" Maxim yelled as he released an energy wave shining with energy. for a moment, Chibi was blinded by the light, but with a flick of his hand, he was able to deflect the wave, and then to counter he used RagnaBlade, but this time Maxim wasn't falling for it. He Hit it with his sword, but right when the blade was going to collapse, he flipped off it and made a downward stab at chibi-
(OOC: It's about time I did something...)

 

Nemotan backed off away from Chibi and Maxim, slightly annoyed, and watched for about three seconds until boredom started to set in. Tan's anger started flowing, and the white procupine charged at both of them. Chibi noticed out of the corner of his eye, and took a defensive stance.

But, to his surprise, Nemotan didn't make an attempt at him, but instead went right for his ally. Caught off guard, Maxim was only able to throw his hands up in front of himself. Nemotan brought his shoulder into the robot's side, and sent him hurling through the air.

"Stay outa my fight!" Nemotan called after, and turned back to Chibi. "Now, where were we?"

 

Maxim slams down to earth onto his face and skids on a cloud of dust. Soon enough his momentum gives out and his hulking frme comes to a complete stop fifty feet from where he was struck by Nemotan. Ace looks down on him with mock pity as his sidekick Black Tonberry, Shiro, pokes at him.

"Think we should help him get up," Shiro asks.

"Let 'im do it himself," Ace said. "He took it upon himself to butt into Nemo's fight. I think he deserves what he got."

"There's a lot of evil stuff roaming out here right now, Ace," the fish/turtle monster said nervously. "And most of it's still hunting for us. You think Para's little friends have forgotten about us?"

Haaah-fisss!!!

"'Ulp'...Nope."

 

Laughing slightly at Maxim's pain, Chibi takes something out of his pocket. A shining orange crystal floated infront of him. "Emperium. The strongest metal in Rune-Midgard. Easily forged, but hard as hell." He says, slashing at the stone. "A Cinder Block. My favorite thing to throw." Sending a bit of energy in it, then hurls the block of crystal at the Porcupine. "Have fun with it." He chuckled.

 

(OOC: As if you haven't noticed, I'm completely drained of creativity. It probably comes from thinking up plots and editing sprites. Anywho, I probably won't post for awhile, and if I do, I'll probably turn against Para and Chib. However, with that being so cliche, I'll probably just wait a while and become inspired, then post afterwards. Sorry for the inconvience.)

 

Nemotan brought his hand behind his head in a throwing possition, and created a black energy ball. He threw it forward at Chibi's stone. As the it made contact, the ball imploded upon itself creating a super-powerful, yet totally concentrated, well of gravity. The stone crumbled into dust under the immense pressure, and the tiny shards began gathering at the gravity centerpoint, slamming into eachother and forming back into an ultra-condensed, marble-sized piece of Emperium.

Nemotan floated the marble toward himself. "Condensed Emperium. Beat that denseness." He tossed back to Chibi.

 

(Tabcef) (OOC:..Have a heart attack?? Well...hmm...die a tragic death?? Hum. Sacrifice yourself to some unwilling extent?
If if not death--
Create a large black hole, warping Metro city into a blank space...I wish I was here when it started =D)

 

Taking yet another item out of his pocket, this time a hammer. "Oridecon Hammer. The best of it's kind. Easilly welding many Emperium at once." He said, swinging at the Emperium Marble. The marble cracked, and shattered. Chibi's arm, though, had taken a painful blow. "Yeow. That hurt more than

being whacked by a Dark Priest."

 

OOC: You guys may want to think about finishing your battles kinda soon. This topic will NOT run into another, and we're running out of space. One way or another, it will be over soon.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Gracefully, effortlessly, the gilded blade moved into place. A terrible eruption of energy followed, bringing mountains low. That is how the battle began.

Incomprehensible energies move in a manner which could only be described as exploding outw@rd. The earth ruptured, and the sky fell with every blow. It appeared as though brightest day were clashing with darkest night. On and on they went, swords booming, fists flying, energy arcing abound. There was not a living being on the planet that was deaf to them. Hope and havoc ran amuck of the people. Pain was the commonality.

The sudden release of heat, sound, and energy rent the tectonic plates asunder. The planet’s polar axis began to buckle. The world would not survive this battle much longer.

 

Maxim:Dammit! So my destiny is not to fight, but to watch as those more powerful than I decide the fate of the world!!!

I Will do some-WHOOOAHH

Maxim felt the earth vibrate. Then a scream was emitted, one that seemed to come from the earth. She was in pain. then a great feeling of sadness came over Maxim. He felt a glow in his heart. one he hadn't felt scince he was born.
He Closed his eyes, and Threw his fist in the air.

A light shined from him, almost blinding All in the battlefeild. Holy Light.

With the holy light, Maxim let it flow through his body and into the Earth. the earth rumbled from the energy that was going into it. what happened Next can only be described as a miracle.

Life stood once again.

The Barren Metals and structures of Metro City Shined, and then in an amazing display began to become their rightful selves.
Even the SPA Bar & Grill regained it's previous form, ad a building and not a pile of Rubble.

Veiwing this, The Fighters Gaped at the now Unconsious Maxim. What is that machine?!?! was on the minds of the warriors. But then as a blast of energy was thrown, the batttle resumed. Even as the buildings had once again risen, they were slammed into and hit, despite Maxim's efforts. However, even though the Darkness was still looming large, A glimmer of hope was seen in Maxim. He could heal the world. and he would in a heartbeat, for that was his purpose in existance. It maynot have been Reid's intention to be that way, but that was how it was gonna be. For Peace, Harmony, and Freedom. Maxim was ready to give all his life force away for it.

And already hundreds of years dissapeared.

But still. He could heal the world.
and the world would be healed.

 

"That's it!" Para jumped back, extending his hands vertically to his sides. At the height of his jump, energy colloums erupted and dug into the eart. The began to pump with a green sort of energy behind the black shell. As he landed, the collums lengthened and moved liked tentacles. The ground near the enterance wound began to turn black, crumbling and dying before Frieza's eyes.

"Finally, I can show my true self on this retched planet!" Para laughed as he tore the energy tentacles up through the weakened earth, bringing the chunks of land with it. Underneath a black lava flow moved. The tentacles moved pack into his armored hands. Para's white eyes grew to a red color. His form would allow him to match the strength Frieza was showing. His armor began to shed like molting skin. The flesh underneath began to harden, turning night black. Only a pair of pants was left, mainly for decency. His body began to grow medium muscles, his teeth turning to spike like ones. Large bat like wings ripped out from his shoulder blade, his black hair running between them. His nails fell to the ground, being shoved out by six inch long black claws. The blood eyed demon took to the air, a cold laugh emitting from his now deep and rough voice.

"Scar the land for me, oh silent one! Your battle is already futile!" The corrupted beast laughed, motioning for Frieza to resume the battle.

 

OOC: I'm writing my final attack. So just hold on a while for me guys.

 

Mind as well deal with the Zerg string I started again. firerocket, help if ya wanna.
____________________

The beasts were closing in from all sides as Ace and his sidekick cowered in fear of the zenomorphic terrors. The ground shook and the sky burned as Freiza and Nemotan continued their epic battles. The Zerg left were numbered in the hundreds as they scaled buildings and shoved themselves through the soil to reach up and grasp at Ace and his friend.

"Shiro, man, I need you to do something for me," the dark echidna said.

"Y-yeah," the Tonberry said as he backed further into the corner they were backed into to avoid the rising claw of a Hydralisk.

"Use this." He hands him a little green orb and tucks it into his palm. "And don't look back. I swear if you don't listen to me this time..." He let the warning hang.

"But what if he-"

"Don't worry about it... I'll be okay so long as you do as your told."

A translucent volley of greenish spikes speard the wall over their heads, rushing the somewhat touching moment.

For the first time in a year, Ace removed his Spread Needle from his back and loaded the valves with poisonous yellow barbs. He nodded to the Tonberry and he disappeared in a shower of white sparks, leaving Ace in the flashing dark of ominous gold eyed monsters.

"What are y'all waiting for? Let rock it, MAN!!!"

All at once, the dark moved and Ace was swallowed up by the writhing wall of insectoid creatures. A series of flachettes ran from the struggle and more than a dozen creatures were torn apart by the attack. Still more surged on and more were paralyzed and slaughtered. More and more needles flew out of the dogpile and more Zerg replaced the ones who had died. Soon enough, the struggling stopped and a dismembered arm with a Spread Needle came flying out. It twitched one last time as blood began to seep away at the numerous cuts and cartusions all over the severed limbe. Ragged tatters of fur and flesh were all that signified that it belonged to someone and not on a deli counter... For it seemed that Ace was meat.

 

It seemed that Ace was finished, doomed to be devoured without his weapon for protection...or was it the other way around. In his final moments of life, Ace knew that in death he would bring about something sickening and even more destructive in his wake. And no matter how much he fought, there was no way now to contain 'him'. God have mercy on his soul as he is eaten for he may have brought the death of us all.

As if by some invisible force, the Zerg all back away from the corpse. The cause is the fact that it shakes violently and rises into the air. Ace's gouged out eyes bleed freely and flow down his body. His fur begins to lighten and turn a color of violet, just light enough not to be black. His tail, or whats left of it, erupts outward and curls about his legs. A symbole etches itself in blood on his chest and expands outward to curl about his one arm and outline and swing about where his other used to be.

"HHHAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!"

The corpse seems to exhale a white smoke that envelops the area. The flesh of many Zerg stings and melts away from the bone and exoskeleton when it hits them. The body inhales and seems to be reguvinated. The first thing one notices about the new entity is the tattoo paterns on it's fur, then the grimaced fangs within it's mouth, the two banner like red streaks of hair flying behind him...then again there's the new arm and the eyes. They seem to change color when you see them from different angles, like a hologram foil.

(I think Frieza has made his aquaintence once.
Go to
http://www.members.tripod.com/redstreak7/scott_1.gif
for a visual.)
The demon walks right up to the Crimson Hunter Hydralisk who still has Ace's blood on it's mouth (I think that's what tjhose things are called) and punches his fist through the creature's skull. Without a bit of fuss, he pulls out a nice sized chunk of Zerg brain and chomps on it.

"Mmmm, tastes like chicken. Really old chicken. Time to eat."

His eyes from every Zerg's point of view grow red as the runes on his tail light up. The dark crevice of buildings that they've clustered into grow hot and then burst into flames. Multiple explosions of superheated flesh and blood fill the air and each and every creature of alien design until the sky is filled with the light of the massive bonfire. Or dare I say barbecue. If one looks close enough you can see the demon holding his hands to the sky and chanting while standing on the highest building in the flattened part of the city. The heart of the fire seems to dies as the incredible heat and light are pulled into his body and away from the Zerg's fried remains. His mad glee is somewhat interrupted when buildings and people begin to reappear where there were none some time before.

"I don't appreciate it when somebody spoils the groove, pal," he says mockingly over Maxim, seemingly appearing from nowhere. "Let's say you stop trying to save the world an' I don't 'vape you?"

The mechanized hero simply ignores him and continues his work.

The creature opens his animalistic eyes wide, golden energy crackling about his lean frame. "Fine, pay me no mind!" He forms a deal of gold energy into a flaming globe. "Just tell 'em Spades sent ya when you get to hell!!!"

 

OOC: Hmm...it looks like we have a little time, so why don't you do another attack Para? Make it as big as you want.

OOC:All right. One question, is Frieza connected with the land?

 

Spiritually or physically? No. Emotionally?...not really. He drinks here. That's about it.

Feel free to take control of how I counter your attacks (I will fight back), but do not control my dialoge or thoughts. You don't really have enough information to get it right.

 

OOC: I meant does he gain his power from the planet itself.

 

Hunter KILLER rather than Hunter Hydralist, but we knew what ya meant.

 

That's what I meant by spiritually.

In some strange sense, he's drawing power from everything (tangible or not), but not the planet specifically.

 

OOC: Good enough. Once I've got my flow back I'll write up an attack.

 

Thanks, man. I knew it was somewhere in that territory.

 

'Good enough'? Careful now Para. I said 'In a sense'. It's not like pluging into an outlet. If you want, maybe you should read the tramsformation post again. In essance, it's all there. Though I should remove the “Frieza reached deep within, grasped the light, and became himself.” line. I think it’s more confusing than it is true.

Perhaps I also haven’t been clear enough that he’s emitting some kind of holy energy. Your character may be unable to place its exact origins or strength, though.

 

((OOC: I know, but even the faintest line is enough. As long as he's obtaining even a minor bit of energy from the planet, he can use that to damage the planet. If he isn't, then I'll just have to use Frieza as a sort of voodoo doll.))

 

Well then, I'll just say it simply. No, he's not drawing energy from the planet. It's technically coming from inside of him.

 

((Ah. Well, hope he doesn't man being a voodoo doll.))

 

Good news! I'm about half way done with my attack... so far it's two pages long in word. It's nothing fancy like Frieza or Ace or some of you guys write, but it's plenty descriptive. (That's probably a given huh?) Eh, will, I'ma go work on it some more.

 

I don't usually worry about how long my attacks usually are. I normally just visualize something in my mind and write it out as best as possible. Don't try and stack up against someone else or always think of how much more discriptive or whatever they may be than you. Just focus on what your writing and how you can try and predict how that person will respond. At least that's how I do it. My drawing's not the best, but I can still say that I'm satisfied with what I do.

 

(OOC: Thanks for the tip. Anyway, I decided to change the end, so it's now shorter. Yeah...)
~~~
Darkness. Evil. Hate. This could be the last battle the earth would ever see. People around the world listened to radio for information being sent by satellite. In all the countries of this crumbling blue marble, political leaders could only watch in fear, knowing even nuclear warfare could not stop these beings. Each and every one probably strong enough to take out the planet on their own if they wished. Generals leaned over maps and charts, not caring anymore about what strategy to use, or what forces to send in. Work places deserted by parents that had rushed home to love, and be with their families.

Amazing… how evenly matched the battle was. When it could have been so much more lopsided.

But there was one fight going on… in which the battle was not totally even. One being, one fighter, had taken the slight strength advantage over his opponent.

Nemotan hovered above the torn city, facing Chibi the Assassin. Both were strong, but so far the porcupine had showed greater strength than Chibi. Not to say Chibi was outmatched. Both had shown great fighting capability.

Unfortunately for Chibi, he was about to be in a position where he would be greatly outmatched.

Nemotan took a deep breath, "This is getting to the point where either some one has to kill the other, or kill themselves trying. We're running out of time here; Ace's song may not last much longer, and that will just put us right back at the beginning of this whole ordeal, and that would mean all of this was POINTLESS!"

He began floating back and forth, pacing. "Since you've been kind enough to not attack the last few minutes, and since you attacked me last, I assume it's my turn. Hm?"

Chibi nodded, "Yeah."

Nemotan turned to face him again, "Alright then, here goes nothing. Let's see if I can't out do Frieza's and Para's new forms, or Spades with this, shall we?"

A second passed, and nothing happened. And then the white porcupine fired the shot heard round the world.

Nemotan erupted in white fiery energy, and crouched over, arms bent, fists clenched. Around him a white energy shield appeared, and began growing thicker and thicker as the porcupine's power level flew. Inside, lightning bolts exploded.

Chibi rushed at the sphere, too late to save the transformation from being accomplished. As he neared, he was simply shot backward by more lightning bolts.

Inside the whiteness, Nemotan's eyes had grown wide, and his face lost all expression as his power grew to more than triple its earlier height, but the transformation had not even begun. His eyes became totally plain, nothing but white. Out of his back grew quills half a dozen. Along his muscled arms, sprouted blade-like spikes, each resembling that of a small shark fin. His eyes, now closed, changed underneath. From their pure white, they changed colors. One pure black. One pure gold.

But finished, he was not. For looks were not the only things altered in a transformation.

Nemotan's own nervous system began reconfiguring itself to meet the demands of his power. With this came heightened intelligence, reaction time, and even brainpower itself.

The new being that was being produced, did not find being lightweight sufficient. Super lightweight would do, however. This process was not an easy one for even the smallest of creature, one that required the altering of a being's atoms themselves. In each organ, in each tissue, in each cell, in each molecule, atoms reconfigured.

 

Nuclei lost their masses, as neutrons were scrapped, obliterated, found unnecessary. All they did was take up space. Protons were morphed into positively-charged, electron-like particles. Electrons being the lightest component of an atom, and electrons being, now, the only components making up Nemotan's mass, his weight was now reduced to about 30 grams. On the flip side though, actually connecting a punch with his body wouldn't be like just punching a pillow to send him flying. His new strength would prevent it.

His arms and legs bulged with new muscular form, his abdomen sprouted a six-back, and from the top of his head appeared more fin-like spikes, in a V pattern.

The white energy shield disappeared gradually, revealing Perfect Nemotan. Small energy bolts shot around his body periodically. His head was down, eyes closed, almost looking asleep.

Para looked at the new creature, not sure what to think. He knew he was extremely strong, but couldn't quite grasp a hold on his power. He floated slightly closer.

Nemotan suddenly looked up, piercing eyes wide open. Chibi was taken aback by his "freaky" look. Chibi still could not find his opponent's power level, and began to wonder what the transformation had really done.

"Did that transformation make you weaker or something? I can't even feel your energy."

"Stand there and find out." Nemotan raised his hand out in front of him, palm forward. Chibi still felt nothing. Then, suddenly, Nemotan's power exploded like a torch lit under a leaking oil truck. He was engulfed in energy, and his power caught the brief attention of the other fighters.

"Here's one you might know." A purple aura appeared at the tip of his outstretched hand.

"Final Breath."

The purple beam erupted from his palm like a bat out of hell. All Chibi could do was put up his arms and hope for the best as it came in contact with him.

As the attack finally faded, Nemotan looked down at the city, not caring whether Chibi was alive or not. He had several choices. He could just full out blow up the entire area and hopefully destroy all the "bad guys". Biggest problems with this, was that he'd also kill his allies, totally wreck the city beyond repair, he would be drastically vulnerable. But, it could end the fight and would take the least amount of time.

He could go down and aid his friends, overpowering them one by one. This may take a while, and give some other enemies time to kill his allies, but it would probably work, and not harm the city as much.

Finally, he could wait it out to see what would happen, and take any enemies that might win their fights. Unfortunately, this would take the longest.

He needed to do his work quick, but didn't want to kill anyone he knew as a friend.

Nemotan sent out a telepathic message to all his partners, "Anyone want or need help?"

 

Very creative, Nemo. Though a transformation wouldn't have been my first choice, it worked out pretty well. I could say more, but I'll save all of my congratulations for later.

--------------------------------------------------------

It was more than a war. For the millions living it, this was hell. Zerg and imperial forces stormed through the wasted city, being revived and destroyed at the same time. Plasma shots in the night, translucent spikes soaring from predatory beasts, dealing gruesome death to their master's foes.

 

No light.

 

The ground quaked, the sky roared, and in the center of it all was an indescribable force that made almost everyone want to fall to their knees and pray.

 

Frieza's troops were making good progress. The west quadrant had been won and all but secured with acceptable casualties. On the eastern front, they had met up with Z's army, established a mutual battle plan, and quickly dominated. What remained now was to launch a full frontal on the main facilities in the north before the Zerg had time to get back on their feet.

 

But the loathsome race had already been given enough time to set up a considerable defense. Massive complexes of guard towers and hatcheries brooded where homes once stood, now protected by whole battalions of Zerg, positioned to repel any invasion.

 

But even there, behind their allies, they could not escape the havoc. Upon landing, Zarbon had deployed a mass of aerial units in a bid to overwhelm the enemy. The Zerg ships were easily overtaken by the innumerable invaders. Total air supremacy was quickly established. If the Zerg ever dared to construct another aircraft, it was almost instantly annihilated.

 

Putting this tactical advantage to good use, Zarbon ordered the bombing strike to begin. Unmanned bomber drones buzzed through the northern sector. AA did what they could, but it wasn’t nearly enough to spare them of the devastation. The sound of whistling bombs and streaming rockets filled the air, as well as the screams of the dozens that fell every moment, completing the circle of terror and madness that had become Metro City.

 

The aura of confusion besetting the land made it nearly impossible to coordinate anything. Troops from both sides continued advancing, ignoring the drones as they made their runs. Amidst the rising anarchy, neither Zerg nor Empirical soldier could comprehend the horror awaiting them in the darkness…

 

Second Lt. Rei Charles would be the first to find it. He had joined the army three years ago, and was slowly ascending through the ranks. His gung-ho attitude had always held him back. But today, it would set him free.

 

He and a lesser soldier had been sent out on a commando mission (or rather, had sent themselves out). While the bulk of the infantry concentrated on the southeastern area of the northern quadrant (designated Zone Indigo by his battalion), Lt. Charles and Pr. Jim ‘Hunter’ Manly were making their way around back in tandem with Delta Company. Once they felt they were deep enough in to satisfy their sense of adventure, they broke formation and went off toward the cape, where there were sure to be resource mining facilities and plenty of Zerg units with their guard down.

 

They never made it to the cape.

 

Rei was not a complete idiot. He wouldn’t be charging into a battle if he didn’t think he had a damn good chance of surviving. And, in fact, he did. Had he made it to his destination, he could probably have survived for at least ten minutes. And, God willing, he might even have made it out with all of his body parts. Unfortunately, neither he nor Pr. Manly would get the chance to test their luck.

 

As they weaved through piles of debris and bodies, a peculiar light engulfed them. They were filled with a sense of awe as the buildings around them were restored. Thrown completely off guard, they looked around for an answer. Their scouters pick up a relatively high power level but thirteen hundred feet to the northeast.

 

“Think thas where is’s coming from?” Pr. Manly asked warily. He didn’t like it when unexpected things popped up.

 

“It’s gotta be! Come on, let’s check it out!”

 

“Are you out of your ****ing mind?! Wha happens when he sees us?!”

 

“Calm down Hunter, he won’t see us! It’s too dark to see ****, and now we’ve got buildings to hide behind!” Rei reassured his partner, sounding very convincing.

 

“Yeah, but you heard the orders! We ain’t supposed to go near nobody with a high powerlevel!”

 

“Stop and think for a minute, will ya! Whatever this is just restored part of the city, right?”

 

“Uh, yeah?”

 

“And our objective is to protect the city, right?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“So then that means we’re on the same side, ya dumb ****!”

 

“Yeah, but I hope somebody told him that.”

 

“Aw, grow some balls Hunter! If we establish first contact with this guy, we’ll get a promotion for sure! Come on, let’s go before someone beats us to him!”

 

They finally decided to go, and rushed off toward the source of the healing energy. But when they arrived, they found two figures. One was a robot, the source of the energy, and one was a menacing dark figure advancing upon the other. Their jaws dropped.

 

“…what the **** is that?”

 

The foolhardy soldiers had failed to notice the other power advancing toward them as they ran. Now they gazed upon the hellish Spades as he yelled at Maxim.

 

"Fine, pay me no mind. Just tell 'em Spades sent ya when you get to hell!!!"

 

Unaware of the complicated character relationships at work, Lt. Charles took Spades for an enemy. Without checking his scouter, or even thinking five seconds ahead, he decided this would be a good time to set off his weapon.

 

In hindsight, the most accurate way of describing the preceding action would be with two words. ‘Dumb-ass’.

 

Spades stopped in his tracks and deflected the plasma burst effortlessly. The frightened soldiers unleashed a frantic barrage of fire, covering their target. With no effect. They break into a run, tripping in bodies and potholes.

 

“Boo.”

 

They fall over themselves as two glowing red orbs appear in front of them. It is the last thing they ever see, before their bodies are torn viciously apart.

 

Back at the LZ, things were more frantic than ever, despite their excellent progress.

 

Zarbon: Col. Mira, status report!

 

Mira: Bombing raids continue successfully. Approximated 40% of all above ground Zerg installations destroyed, and 20% of all underground facilities.

 

Zarbon: What about our ground forces?

 

Mira: Assault has begun on the Northern quadrant, but we’re having trouble coordinating due to the constant combat and communications breakups.

 

Zarbon: Just be sure to keep those bombers away from our men!

 

(Zarbon’s transmitter goes off. Col. Mira dismisses herself as he answers it)

 

Zarbon: Dodoria, what have you got for me?

 

Dodoria: What the hell is going on down there?! We’re getting wild geothermal readings and fluctuation in the planet’s magnetic field!

 

Zarbon: I think the battle’s been a little too much for the planet. We hope to be finished soon, if you can stave off the arrival of any more units.

 

Dodoria: What are you talking about?! The planet is going to explode! You have to order an evacuation!

 

Zarbon: We have not been given orders to abandon the city!

 

Dodoria: To hell with the city! The planet is going to blow!

 

Zarbon: You know damn well that we can’t just leave Frieza here.

 

Dodoria: Zarbon, according to our sensors, Frieza isn’t even down there. You have to get out now!

 

Zarbon: WHAT?! You’re breaking up! Repeat that last statement!

 

Dodoria: I said Fri-…no-…

 

All communication was severed as a magnetic surge passed over the atmosphere between them. Zarbon dropped the transmitter and stared blankly into the darkness, toward the erupting field of Golden-white light at it’s center, and wondered as creation fell apart around him.

 

"Para, I will be pulling back now. I'm sure you've gotten enough time to finish up here."A mental voice sounded through his head. Zasz had a point, he had collected the energy he needed. Soon, the cerebrate began to disconnect as a collection of Overlords wrapped themselves around the large creature. Thousands of Zerg in the backline began to load up and leave. The frontline was left to continue keeping away the pesk assaulters. Devourers pulled themselves from the creep and prepared to protect the moving swarm

"So ends this tale. Tell me Frieza, where will you go next? I do hope to one day see you again." Para laughed as green flames began to dance around his body. He was burning off corrupt energy to pull off what ever he was going to do. He raised his left hand and aimed the middle claw in Frieza's direction. A small line of soul energy jumped between the tip and Frieza. A meer tingle of corruption. Soon, the hero's body began to glow with the energy. He ripped back his claws and ran them quickly across Frieza's chest. As the claws passed across the flesh, they quickly scarred. At the end of the attack the energy left Frieza. It didn't hurt any bit, but it was strange.

"And this will be the end of this planet. I truely hope you find a way off this place." The demon tilted his head back and laughed, the sound of ground being ripped open filling the air. A large fault began to form and run through Metro City, ending some where at the end of the continent. The earth filled with the sounds of ground cracking, water rushing, and burning forests. Faults began to scar across the land, warping the planet into a place filled with mountains and basins. Water began to rush through the fault that ran directly through Metro City, rinsing out what ever might be laying underneath or ontop of. Some scars on the land dipped so far in that lava began to freely flow from them, forced out by some uknown strength. Volcanoes began to erupt as a rush of energy shook the land. To anyone in space who was watching, it seemed the earth was destroying itself. Lightning bolts began to ravage the land, thunder clouds fueled by the unnaturual disturbance. Slowly the ground underneath the feet of the fighters began to crack, slowly collapsing in on caverns and channels underneath. Spike like collumns were forced through the remaining concrete in the area.

"We are the eye of the storm. It is calmer here than in the other places. I do recomend you make a retreat. There's nothing else left to save on this cursed planet."

 

Having taken the hint when no one responded to his help offer, Nemotan had decided, under the circumstances, the planet needed the most help. Seeing as Maxim was the only one concentrating on this task, he began focusing on transmitting his energy to the robot.

Inside his helmet, Maxim was momentarily suprised, but continued with the healing process. Around him vegetation sprouted, climbing the concrete, and triving in the asphalt pavement of a ruined avenue. Cracks in the earth began healing, converging on themselves. Lava flow began to slow from eruptions to more of overflowings.

Spades watched in disbelief. It seemed as if the weight between destruction and healing had become perfectly balanced. While not much was hurting the planet as side effects from the fighting, it seemed not much was being healed either.

"You just don't get the hint do you, you stupid, worthless piece of malfunctioning trash!" Spades was furious that Maxim was not obeying him, and charged full ahead with a punch ready.

To his complete and udder shock, his fist stopped with gigantic force, stopped by some invisible wall. Above the city, Nemotan slowly shook a finger at him, though the echidna was unable to see him anyway.

"Fine. You get your way for now." Spades growled. He turned and headed off to battle.

Back down on earth, Para said to Frieza, "We are the eye of the storm. It is calmer here than in the other places. I do recomend you
make a retreat. There's nothing else left to save on this cursed planet." Para stood there and concentrated his magic.

"Not quite." The porcupine sent a telepathic message to Para. Para glanced around, but could not find a trace of even Nemotan's powerlevel near by. Then from behind, energy blasted out of the rubble as the porcupine showed himself, and charged at Para. He flew through the air and put out a kick toward Para's jaw. Fortunately for him, he was able to lean his head back just enough to only be grazed by the passing air-blade, not taking his magic away from Frieza, who's body was starting to shake from partial possession.

"What did I tell you earlier about staying out of this fight?" Para asked, slight angered disbelief in his voice.

"What? You think I care?" Nemotan almost chuckled under his breath, "Maybe if you pound it into me I'll get the point. But I doubt you'll be able to, seing as you're preoccupied and all.."

"You think I can't take you while I'm slowly controlling your friend's body? Bring it on."

Nemotan smiled, and charged at Para again. Para side-stepped and put his arm out to try and clothes-hang the porcupine, and succeeded. Or so he thought. Nemotan went along with the attack, and wrapped his legs around Para's arms as he completed the back-flip. He jerked his feet, trying to break Para's arm.

No such luck.

Para had more strength than he anticipated.

(OOC: If the dialogue doesn't really fit your character, just ignore it. I wasn't really sure how he'd respond.)

 

((OOC: For future reference, please don't RP my character again. I only let frieza becuase he does it in very minor portions and does portray the character I set for Para good enough. He wouldn't speak with anger or disbelief. Para is what one calls a "Coolhead". The only exception is in when he's taken over by his own corruption, and then he's insane. I'll post soon enough.))

 

OOC: Before I go on, let me make sure I have this right. The planet and I are now linked, so that any damage done to me is done to it, and any healing would do the same?
--------------------------------------------------------------
Nemotan valliantly faced the darkness, shining in his new form, prepared for anything. He would brave any danger; no fate was too horrible for him to bear so long as he could find victory.

But as he stood ready to fight, a tremor ran through him. Wordless it whispered. He felt that something was about to happen, and that he shouldn't be there. He turned to the gilded warrior resembling Frieza. Despite the scared and festering wounds, he remained motionless. But even a blind man could see that this would not last long. Slowly, Nemotan backed away, his eyes warily stalking the pair. Gradually, he picked up speed and retreated to a good vantage point to watch what happened next.

 

(OOC: Para - okay.)

 

OOC: Yep. You're being used as a voodoo doll, so any thing that effects you effects the planet.

 

Well then, there are only 30 posts left to this topic. I'd guess that the final attacks could take up 4 or 5 posts at most, and then our final comments will probably take up a page or two.

My point is, if there's anything left that you want to do, I suggets you do it NOW.

 

(OOC: And I why can't we run it out into another topic, even if it's small. It's better to play it all out than to limit it.)

 

(OOC -Umm, wouldn't my planet healing also affecct Freiza a little bit. Also, On the ending, is it going to be overall decided by your final attacks or will each of us have our own endings like a fighting game)

Maxim's healing force magic was pretty much depleted, and hearing the chaos in the backround of buildings and structures breaking as they were created was causing enough distraction as it was...Finally Maxim snapped out of it, energy low enough that he fell down trying to step forwards...

slowly all the recorded words said previously were replaying in his mind, everything he had missed was playing back all within one second, and to that he was shocked at all he had missed- Ace turning to Spades, challenging him to a battle- NemoTan transforming further to a level off the scale, and Para and Freiza'a battle reaching a proportion of godly levels. As NemoTan had observed, all was seemingly in balance... the dark and the light, healing and the pain...

Maxim reviewed the Spades recording, and tried to come up with a plan to restore him to his original state....

but before that, he sent an urgent message to NemoTan- This is Maxim! I can barely use my extremities! I need an energy charge, just shoot a beam right at me and I'll do the rest!

 

OOC: Voodoo dolls don't work both ways. If frieza's hurt, then the planet is hurt. If the planet is healed, frieza is still harmed.

 

OOC: If there's something to be said, sure, we'll let it run on. But I don't think it will be necisary. I was saying that to sort of get you guys moving a little, because I'm planning to end it (or come really close) with my next post. The current setup (strategically and literarily) is too good to pass up.

That's why I say, if there's anything you really want to get done (especially you Para), please do it. If you want me to wait, or do something lesser so that you can build to it or something, just ask. I won't mind.

Because I REALLY don't want to go on too much after this next post. It will bring everything to final fruition, and to continue afterward would just be a waste. I'll spot you a post or two, but no more.

I hate having to come out and put it all forward like this, but I want to try to end this without ruining someone else's idea. So again I say 'it's time to show your cards'.

 

OOC: Go ahead. I've got nothing else I feel I need to do right now.

 

OOC: This is my first actual RPG. I had a small quarel with Sub a while back, but nothing big.

That said, I'm pretty much out of ideas, other than just going with what some one else does, so feel free to do whatever.

And to FR - I don't think I made it very clear, which was my fault, but I've been sending a constant energy trasmission to you.

 

OOC: I feel slightly honored at the fact this fighting topic has helped bring some one into the RP world. Whoo @_@

 

(OOC)This is my first sorta teamish RPG as well...
Most of the RP I've done before was just little jokes and stuff, but this is my favorite cause it's an actual story. Anyway Nemo, thanks for the clear up... so I'll just skip the part about me Changing the energy of the beam into a useable form of energy for me...

NOW!~~~~

Maxim felt the connection of his friend NemoTan. even in his extreeme state, he still felt energy streaming, a sign of friendship... with Ace fighting the Zerg, NemoTan fighting Chibi and Para fighting Freiza, Maxim knew his next most important move was to heal the planet- His allies were strong enough not to need healing force, but what they truly needed was a morale boost- so With a Flashy Light show, Through the dark clouds of the Ruined then reconstructed and now at the brink earth, Light shone from the sky- it was as if heavan itself had opened it's arms and was ready to give the people of the world peace- and yet again, as the light shone, the clashes of battle were still heard as heroes fought for the lives of innocents... reminding all that a great cry was needed- and so it began. like a deafaning roar, the living citizens of Metro City Yelled the names of their heroes, chanting them on to fight the darkness! (think when Sonic goes Super in SA)

A lone Zerg, Filled with Anger ran toward the shining robot and tried to stab him, only to be slashed in half by the energy blade, and another destroyed by a quick spin- Maxim divided his attention in two ways- one to keep the light shining and another to fight off his antagonists- Amazingly his processor did not slow down and there was no problem throguhout all this.

And in the backround Maxim fought, as the true powers faced each other, determined to set the destiny of the world by their own fashion.

The winner was still unclear.

 

Wow. I didn't realize how long I'd put this off. Sorry. I hope it was worth the wait. I also hope you find this an acceptable end to our fight. I would also like to put out a little dedication to Nido Vensuvious. May he find his way through dark, and emerge all the stronger. Passages in italics and 'quotes' are either quoted or inspired by him. Enjoy.
~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~

 

The chorus of Para’s venomous heart echoed across a forsaken land. His inhuman laughter filled the crashing skies. His destruction soared on high, bathed in the rising death and despair. Their hope was forgotten. Their savior would be their end. To his twisted soul, it was poetic justice.

 

Amidst the fire, the warrior Maxim struggled against the boundaries of reality, pouring all of his energy into holding the planet together. He knew his body would soon give in, but he refused to allow it. Anguish and turmoil tore at his vulnerable heart, slowly renting his child-like hope. All about him the searing inferno that was the planet’s blood erupted skyward; the dark chunks that were its flesh covered the horizon in an endless night.

 

Confusion, unrelenting chaos.

Any unfortunate enough to be left were running in blind terror as the ground gave way beneath them. They cried out for mercy, prayed for deliverance from this fate, but their pleas remained unanswered. They placed their dying hope in the city’s protectors, whose attentions were now fixated to the middle ground where buildings neither rose nor fell. Where life dared not tread, save two. Where a wall of light stood against a wall of darkness. Where the ancient drama of conflict was playing out its final act.

 

 

 

Face to face. Para’s eyes sparkled in malice and victory. Far into the night had they fought, but no longer. The battle was over, so it seemed. He could hear its voice dying out.

 

Or was it merely quieting?

 

His glowing foe hung erect, arms gracefully slung by its side. Radiant white essence dripped from the scared and festering wound on its chest, collecting in pools on the illuminated ground. It had been the first blow either had taken since the transformation.

 

Though his eyes never moved, he saw the havoc about him. He saw the dying world in its majesty, and he knew himself the source of its pain. But he did not despair. He could see.

 

Something was happening. Plain as the day which was no more, something was coming. Something far greater than words can herald. Without warning, the icy red eyes came to life. Flecks of light fell through them, awakening them.

 

The ground hummed with awe.

 

There was an explosion, a mighty eruption of spirit, of emotion and light.

 

The winds whispered quiet reverence.

 

Terrifying white in white eyes bore into the demon with vicious fervor. They shone with unearthly light, scorching his body.

 

The fire dimmed in humility.

 

Para ignored the pain and stared into the light. He saw something. Deep within the blinding eyes, reflected dimly on their flawless surfaces, silently proclaiming their vivid message, were rainbows.

 

‘Was it now clear? Order and chaos....they were the same. Both falling from God, both living as man. Yet when the beast would deliver the life, the <I>true</I> life, true <I>spirit</I> of each being in God and life alike, that true reflection would be born for all to see. One light, one dark. One evil, one divinity. Both beings and both sides of the universal existence would come to be realized as the same in the end.

Of God.’

Deep in the night, the shadows took flight from a single point in the booming sky. It struggled against the darkness, persevering, until finally, it shone dimly through. It was a star. A small, insignificant star, flickering above the golden warrior. The same star as before? No. This star was different…yet, somehow, it was the same. It was always the same.

 

And then, there came another.

 

And another.

 

And still another.

 

They were nearly invisible amidst the continuous lightning and flowing clouds of destruction. The demon grinned at this feeble display. Whatever it was, it was too late, he thought. The planet was already dead. The game was over. But slowly, his grin subsided. Something was amiss.

 

The lightning had stopped.

 

The ground no longer trembled with fear and agony. The Earth has ceased erupting. For a moment, all was still. Then, in place of the roaring chaos, emerged a sensation. It felt like a vibration, but nothing moved. It spread throughout the Earth. It was <I>from</I> the Earth. It was here. And now, everyone could see.

 

<I>Live in virtue, no desire...</I>

 

Suddenly, the planet was covered with a magnificent presence. Brilliant energies flowed freely from it, filling every plant and animal with its spirit. The tattered ground exploded in beautiful, terrifying golden-white light. It resounded painfully with Para’s body. He felt as though it were slowly tearing him apart. He fought against it, but it continued to flow through him as though he were made of glass. He twisted and shouted in anger and anguish alike, mocking the light by his very existence. He turned away from the ground, eyes burning with divine righteousness. But he found no relief in the sky. Little had he noticed, but the pools of stars had become a lake. Heaven and Earth sang of one voice, one heart, one song. Glorious light filled every orifice of the planet, as far as the eye could see. It filled the S.P.A. warriors with courage and strength. With awe and wisdom. Their hearts began to sing with the rest of the world, joined with the being in brotherhood of soul. A union the demon himself had forged in condemnation.

 

<I>...in the grave an angel's choir.</I>

 

The once dark void was now pure light. Para shielded his eyes, but the pain would not stop. His form burned of a thousand earthen flames. His soul was set aflame, corrupted with a spirit of truth and love. It puts him into the spiritual and physical agony with which he is intimately familiar. His training began to take over. He put the pain aside, indulged in it, let it pass through him. Monstrously, he turned his venomous eyes on the conduit of the light, soul raging with contempt, revulsion, disgust, detestation, loathing, and hatred.

 

<I>You look to heaven and wonder why...</I>

 

The form of Frieza was bathed in dazzling immaculate fire. He hung several inches from the ground, enveloped in an aura of magnificent strength and celestial purpose. Now, he was truly ready to fight. His sword gleamed endless white in the infinite void. His eyes had become frightening beyond words. Slowly, he raised his hands to heaven, spinning in a drift of glory. As the beast fought through the torments of spirit, the light grew too bright for human or demon eyes to see.

 

<I>...no one can see them in the sky.</I>

 

‘Suddenly, like a word of death, a chorus-like hum began to emit from the shimmering realm. Para's form kept it's stand, but the darkness felt lost in this sanctuary of light.’

 

<I>Just as the clouds have gone to sleep…</I>

 

The allied warriors were not lost in the light. They had become part of it. Even the dark hearted Spades had found a place. They sent their might and their love on high, and received it back in turn, one hundred fold.

 

<I>...angels can be seen in heaven's keep.</I>

 

Para began to wane with a sense of misplacement in time, but focused relentlessly on his enemy. He was resigned to fight, to destroy this creature, no mater what.

 

<I>Alone in fear they question why...</I>

 

Suddenly, something new rose in the fighters of the light. All at once they felt it and reverberated with it. Together, they vigorously cried the words inwardly as they were screamed outwardly across the field. Conceived in the hearts of the hopeful, born of the lips of the lofty warrior, as he charged toward the heart of the darkness.

 

<I>...God damn not an angel when I die.</I>

 

<b>For Et Amicus Dei!!!</b>

 

That voice! Those eyes! Something grabbed hold of Para’s mind and held it fast. He struggled to break free, but it could not be stopped. His body heaved as the angelic sword drove through his core. Two tormented cries rang out as immaculate energy surged through his body. ‘His spirit burned itself alive and his form began to fade away atom by atom. The void began to suck inwards, and light was drained from the world. The demon’s disintegrating body, spirit and all, melted away, departing in essence and time alike. With the final drain of the last bits of luminosity, vision returned to the desolate cityscape. As the final streams of the energies of time fled in circles and whined in pain, the planet breathed in relief.’ And then, all was quiet once again. Dark Para was no more. Not even dust had been left behind. He would return, they knew, as evil always does, or if not him then some new horror in his name. But for now, there would be peace for a time. The gold clad knight gazed for a moment at the ground upon which he’d stood, then turned away, and began to walk back to where his friends were waiting.

 

3/7/2003 3:37:59 PM

OOC: I can't leave things unfinished. Great ending, but I need to lay out the on character who never played a part yet.

A loud clang resounded behind Friez. Returning so early? As he turned, there was no darkness there. No shadow but a burning light, filled with a mix of compassion and kindness. His face was turned to the ground, his body clad in obsidian armor. To large angel wings were spread out behind him, a light tint of blood on them. The figure slowly rised, but his face was not of Para. A light tan instead of pale skin. Gold eyes studying Friez. White hair instead of black. A longsword was in his right hand, and a welcoming smile on his face. As he began to speak, his voice seemed to echo with another's.

"I must thank you for... calming my brother. I am sorry for what has been caused upon this world by his rage, and I shall work quickly to heal all of the land. This place will always be scarred by this battle though, and he shall rise again. I'm sure you know this, silent warrior. I do not know how to truely give my thanks to you for sending him back to where he came, but I can offer you the one thing to make sure his return shall be a challenge." The arch angel then held out his hand. In his right palm was a necklace, gold and black varying. At the very end were two gems weilded together. One side was a translucent silver, the other side a translucent crimson. Friez was drawn to it, and as he pulled it into his own hand he began to feel a new energy rush through his body. Stronger than either light or dark, the energy of the balance. The arch angel again bowed. He motioned for Friez to return to his companions as he began to weave his healing magic to restore the land. Five more angels fell from the sky, each one landing with their face down and in golden robes. Each one rose up to help the arch angel heal the land. Two more fell down, following in suit. Soon plants began to return on the outside, growing faster and more lushly. Large trees, moss and vines wrapping around the trunk. Flowers growing above the green grass. The waters began to recede and clear themselves of the ash, the lava returning to it's home. The ground began to mend around the world, and the skies clearing. And in the coming generations, people would pass on this tale. Children would consider it fable, scientists lies. And as it faded, the warriors would grow nameless. Still, the answers would always be hidden under the healing earth.

 

 

 

Come now all; come gather round,

I’ll tell you of the day

A city Metro was laid to ground,

When we had lost our way.

 

A city lost of joy and life,

Abandoned to cruel fate,

Did rot away much to the strife,

Of those who would not cross the gate.

 

But in the midst of their silent grief,

A darkness did arise.

A darkness deep within their past,

Dark Para loomed behind the skies.

 

The fiendish and his followers

Did wait for quite a time,

For heroes to so challenge them,

As in days left behind.

 

But no one came to battle them,

Much to their discontent.

So in their boredom the city Metro,

They did proceed to rent.

 

Slaughter in the streets they wrought,

But despite the destructive gale,

Not a single creature did they stir

From beneath the concrete veil.

 

But just as they rose up to leave,

Just as they gave up hope,

Five figures stood above the dust

To fight. They would no longer cope

 

With Para’s constant bombarding,

The city they vowed to protect.

And so they stood for a city’s sake,

Now dying of neglect.

 

Warriors they were, true as the word.

Their bloodthirsty eyes did decree

Them to be mercenaries. Beer and cigars

They did accept, as well as currency.

 

The first man was of noble birth,

Of a proud bloodline was he.

His once great race had been wiped out,

By Frieza’s tyranny.

 

He stood there now upon the roof

Of the empire he’d rebuilt.

The Saiya-jin’s Club Bar and Grill,

A refuge from his guilt.

 

And though his soul for conquest burned,

For from battle he hated to sink,

That day he did not fight for Earth,

And instead he went to drink.

 

The second was a son of his

From days and times afar.

And though he too had wanted blood,

He retreated to the bar.

 

The next was cold as winter’s blast,

No lover’s heart had he!

Subrosian merciless, cruel, steadfast,

Had come for all to see,

 

But see is all that he would do,

For though he mocked his foes,

He left to watch the carnages;

A hand he never rose.

 

The next was feared both far and wide,

From star, to world, to star.

An icy tyrant, eyes blood red,

‘Twas wreched Frieza, emperar.

 

Last there was a porcupine,

Clad in gold and black,

Though fool he seemed unto the world,

They knew not his battle tact.

 

A sixth, I mention to thee now,

Was present on that day.

A womanizer of the drink,

Though what drink I canst say.

 

A minstrel by the name of Ace,

Spellsinging was his lot;

Ballads of death he’d play his foes

To cross their minds with hells black pot.

 

But though his might stretched far beyond

The magic of the song,

That day he lay upon the floor,

And stayed there rather long.

 

There were but two remaining now

To face the coming threat.

It laughed a’lou, and chortled how

Their doom in stone was set.

 

And so in hubris arrogance,

Yon demon lord did send,

Young Chibi the Assassinate,

To deal their hope a’rend.

 

Now listen to me carefully,

For in this battle which I’ll to thee tell,

Their movements were too fast for me!

Their bodies from thin air fell.

 

With spirit and dark magic craft,

Assassin and Emperor clashed.

Through dust filled streets and alleyways

Their deadly forces flashed.

 

Oh day; oh day! Oh fearsome day!

Ere did the storm-blasts rise.

Frozen spires from the Earth,

And fire from the skies!

 

So too then did the porcupine,

Ah, Nemo was his call,

Join in the fray, and save the day

From raining magma ball.

 

With physics bent and time controlled,

The blast was sent aside,

And back to Chibi with new force

Which underneath its shell did hide.

 

Assassinate was caught off guard

And forced to lose two limbs

To magic of dark sacrifice;

Resounding Stone Curse hymns.

 

He fell from high, a crippled bird,

Down onto the street.

His allies, Yoshindo and Karmis

Arose to help him too his feet.

 

He could not be roused, and swiftly approached

The Emperor to claim his prize.

They hid him away desperately

And fooled the hunter with their lies.

 

But in rage the white snake did expel

A charge through common ground

And by the smell of his fresh blood,

Assassinate was found.

 

He hefted up the dying form

Around the neck curlt his hand

He stared so deep and laughed so loud,

His passion soaked the lifeless land.

 

He prepared to snap his prize in twain,

And bask in twisted delight,

But mercy crept into his heart,

And he cast the body out of sight.

 

The body fell beneath the ground,

I know not why, but next I knew

Frieza went to retrieve that which

He had so mercifully threw.

 

I know not what transpired there,

But soon I heard the call.

A challenge to Para came from below

Within the echoed sewer hall.

 

His reply came with a rocket blast

Into that filth-rich place.

Then my friends, the final duelists

Did meet face to face.

 

But elsewhere now our tale goes on

Nearby the brine filled bay,

Chibi’s discarded body was sought

Beneath the fading day,

 

By five warriors of grim descent,

Portaled from distant sun.

They found him first, and prepared to heal

Their fallen companion.

 

But from behind there came a plume

Of hellish fire blue.

But by careless fault the demi-demon

Chibi was born anew.

 

The wizard Z did curse himself

Yet still did try again.

Summoned here by Nemo’s will

He would bring on the pain.

 

And on all fought, and on and on

With fists and terrible fire.

All spawned from in malevolent will,

A demon’s black desire.

 

With every blow, a building fell,

The roads were caving in.

And every blast that came did crash

A borough with its din.

 

But soon, at last, the havoc-blast

Did rouse an echidna to its feet.

The minstrel left the empty bar

With hell the city there to greet.

 

And now we come to Maximus,

But robot though he seems,

I swear to thee I felt in him

A soul of human seams.

 

He was the final warrior

Dark Para to oppose.

Clad all in metal cyberware

To save them, he had chose.

 

I ran now from this doomed place,

A saint filled me with fear.

I ran and ran until I heard

A whistling in my ear.

 

I turned around and then I knew

The horror had begun.

A cyclone size unfathomed!

I turned again to run.

 

But as I went I heard behind

A monstrous hister-boom.

My feet were lifted from the ground;

I swore this was my doom.

 

But angels had kept watch on me,

Of that I am most sure.

I woke within a blackened realm,

Blackened by the death decor.

 

The sky was filled with hopelessness,

Debris choked the land.

The ground lay flat; atattered

Riven by a mercenary’s hand

 

No sun, no light. I could not see,

Until the hail did fall.

A hail of crafts behind the clouds,

And gunfire’s loud call.

 

Twin armies now ran through the streets

Those dead and broken streets.

All hope seemed lost, the end accost’t,

And darkness rained in sheets.

 

But as the city leveled

Looked to me a horror sight,

It seems now like a trifle thing

Of all that came that night.

 

I stood and watched a’dazzled,

Such things I’d ne’er dreamed!

To see my Earth so shadowed

By an other-worldly fiend!

 

You see my friends, our savior

Was no angel from the skies.

He was as cold as Para’s men;

A demon in disguise!

 

I bled with rage and cough’t aghast,

Lord Frieza did not rise

A single whim to ease the pain

He caused in dead men’s eyes!

 

Could one so dark deliver us

From darkness so the same?

His crimson eyes would bring us naught

But universal pain!

 

So I sat in discontent,

So I then arose.

From deep within the battlefield;

A spirit wind there blows.

 

Two figures were there fighting now

Though neither could I see,

Dark Para and the Icy Prince;

None other could they be.

 

The darkness seemed far darker there,

Than any I had seen.

In nature one could ne’er find

A night as that had been.

 

A night alive with hellish beast.

They dying and the dead

All turned their eyes to heaven’s gate

To which they’d been blasted.

 

A night so filled with terror sounds;

My soul within me shrieked and reeled!

A night of boundless evil tides,

Seven times cursed and seven times sealed.

 

My watch was from a distance now,

And dust did cloud my eyes,

But still I thought I saw the two;

The ones I then despised.

 

But suddenly, my breath was gone.

I know not how or why,

A feeling gushed across the land

Awakening the sky.

 

I felt it hum within my heart,

My hope was born again!

A truth, a life, tranquility,

Through all of us vib’red.

 

At first there were but little flecks,

Small reddish bursts of light,

Like scarlet tears brought through remorse

Brazened through the night.

 

And following was made a scene

As great as Heaven’s might;

From underneath the cloak of dark

Emerged a field of white!

 

My heart leapt out from back to front,

The figure was reborn!

Amidst a field of divine light he bathed.

His body was adorned

 

With majesty and holy glow.

A candle in the night.

I knew there then, within his eyes,

Would end the city’s plight.

 

His body shone a Golden paint,

As did his lofty blade.

Ere did his light so bless the Earth

To hold this gilded shade.

 

So glorious! So frightening!

Yet I was unafraid.

For in my heart I felt his truth;

Of mercy was he made.

 

The frozen hearted Emperor

Was made with light anew,

The ice had melted from his soul;

A fire there now grew.

 

Each scrap and quarrel now did stop;

All fighters held in fright.

It were as though their souls had left

To swim amidst the light.

 

And all could hear the song of hope

Flare up across the land,

Resounding joy and courage in

The prayer’s folded hand.

 

But as their prayers returned to them

There came a terrible quake.

It seems the planet’s wounded core

Would not survive the battle’s wake.

 

Nor ere could cyborg Maximus

Nor minstrel Ace defend;

Though heal the city as they did,

They could not stop the rend.

 

I stood and peered into the light

I saw in Para’s eyes;

There was no dread, or even doubt;

This world would be his prize.

 

Beset in all his sickly essence

The demon lord did dash,

And met for blade the radiant one,

Beneath the lighting’s flash.

 

With every blow, the sky lit up,

An awesome thunder strike!

And fire rose from underneath;

Torn through the earthen dike.

 

The brilliance was continuous,

I’ll ne’er again the sight!

It were as though the face of day

Had met the face of night!

 

Beneath my feet, the earth rose up;

Heaven and Hell ran free

Upon this land to battle for

Man’s final destiny.

 

I on my knees, I praying deep,

They fought on endlessly.

Nor ere our crying world could know

A moment’s peace to be.

 

Then in the heat and hellish din

I saw in Para’s eyes.

I saw the anguish of the souls

He’d taken as his prize

 

From all the blasted innocents,

And then, God what I saw!

His armor melted from his flesh;

The souls became his claw.

 

Skin a dark obsidian

And wings of horrid night!

His deep eyes red with devil glow

Swallowed my soul in fright.

 

Para at creation laughed,

His true face now revealed.

He declared with menacing grin

The planet’s fate was sealed.

 

“This holy war is over now!”

The demon lord decreed,

And then a thread of spirit force

He through the being weaved.

 

Then quickly with new ill-bought po’er,

He charged the being through.

His claws he ripped across the chest;

White essence-blood he drew.

 

And then the planet’s suffering;

Did nine times nine fold grow!

The ground and sky began to die

And all life sunk in woe.

 

The Golden knight was motionless

Awash in flowing light.

I saw no pain nor guilt on him

Though we were dying of his fight.

 

But when I saw his glowing face,

My heart began to rise.

Can that be shadowed dimly

…Rainbows in his eyes?

 

The wicked fiend laughed callously.

He thought the battle won;

The city Metro ne’er again

Would know another sun.

 

Then all were knelt in joyous prayer;

The Godly battle neared its end,

For on yon gilded warrior

The Holy Spirit did descend.

 

There came a feeling, like a song,

That ran throughout my veins.

The Earth itself could feel it come;

The humbled fire wanes.

 

“And now 'twas like all instruments,
Now like a lonely flute;
And now it is an angel's song,
That makes the Heavens be mute.”

 

And soon I felt it come to me,

His holy strength and might!

And Earth and stars and everything

Shone with immaculate light.

 

The demon Para screeched in pain

His raw inhuman cries

Did sweep across the hallowed ground

And echo in the skies.

 

A spring of life gushed from my heart

Oh divine and loving thing!

To be so lost and terrified,

And then to rise and sing!

 

And all the world had felt this way;

The other fighters soared.

Their hearts, their power, and their life

They with the being moored.

 

At one with highest knowledge,

And magic of the source,

Attuned to every music,

They marched as one with holy force.

 

And now the demon stumbled round,

His body scorched and seared,

And yet against it all he fought,

And at the light he peered.

 

At length, I think his eyes discerned

His death upon the warrior’s blade.

He seemed to buckle and fall back,

As life and soul were both unmade.

 

And brighter still the light ascends,

Till all are blinded by the bane.

Beyond the roar of Heaven’s wrath,

I heard their cries of earthly pain.

 

When at last my eyes could see,

Dark Para was no more;

Nor ash, nor dust, nor anything

Was left upon the floor.

 

The brilliant lights had faded off;

The sky again was black.

Though not so dark as it had been

During hell’s attack.

 

Our Golden hearted savior

Began to turn away,

But then where Para had just died

He appeared again! But neigh:

 

It was not Para, not at all.

This being was all heart.

He came with angels circled round

And this he did impart:

 

“I canst hardly thank,” quoth he,

“Thy deeds so brave and true.

But take this, fellow paladin,

Should he return, it shall aid you.”

 

And on our hero he bestowed

A necklace gold and black.

He promised then to heal the land

In penance for his kin’s attack.

 

I turned away and looked throughout

The ash and soot-choked air.

I turned my eyes upon the streets –

Oh, Christ! what saw I there!

 

“Each corse lay flat, lifeless and flat,
And, by the holy rood!
A man all light, a seraph-man,
On every corse there stood.

 

This seraph band, each waved his hand:
It was a heavenly sight!
They stood as signals to the land,
Each one a lovely light:

 

This seraph-band, each waved his hand,
No voice did they impart --
No voice; but oh! the silence sank
Like music on my heart.” – The Rime of the Ancient Mariner

 

The angels did attend their work,

Oh blessed be mine eyes!

From Earth, from dust, from nothingness,

I saw the dead men rise!

 

The city Metro was restored,

And they with sobs did pray --
”O let me be awake, my God!
Or let me sleep away.”

 

Our hero thanked the Seraph man,

And then he turned away,

And soared aloft into the sky

And there to greet the day.

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Frieza hung high over the city as the land and its people were healed. At last, his shining body smiled, content as peace and love retook the world. A new age was dawning. And though Metro City was still all-but abandoned, he didn’t care. He never had.

 

And then, something came without warning. Something long forsaken of this land. Something warm and beautiful. Slowly it approached, cautiously, uncertain. Finally, it made a leap of faith, and with majestic grace, it kissed the ground.

 

It was

Sunlight

 

He thought again of what his enemy had said. How hope was forced. How peace would never last long. How there would always be pain for them.

 

“Perhaps.”

 

“Evil may never rest,” he thought,

 

But so long as Love lives in every heart,

 

As Truth breathes from the lips of His people,

 

As Courage burns in the hearts of the chosen,

 

As Justice their demeths find for both lord and serf alike,

 

As Honor they follow, with reverence in heart,

 

As Sacrifice they will for themselves and their brothers,

 

As Spirituality they hold close to their hearts, and alive in their world,

 

And as Humility rests in all things living,

 

It will never triumph, either.

 

And thus it left him. It left him with a feeling of relief and a deep, deep peace. He closed his eyes, and allowed his body to return to normal. And as the radiant glow faded, he kept his eyes closed, and let himself fall back to Earth.
