(8:55:57 PM): So then.
(8:55:59 PM): VOLYA!
(8:56:35 PM): A short while ago, you decided to play good samaritan to a kid at a hospital who was suffering from a very serious disease.
wyverncakes 8:57 pm
(8:57:02 PM): One who had poor prospects for living and having a good quality of life without a transfusion from someone who'd previously beat said disease. Fortunately, you had so huzzah!
(8:57:32 PM): Bad news: you're currently face-to-face with the kid's mother. Sarah Daniels. The Maverick Firestorm. One of the scary people from the Knights of the Guiding Hand who tried to kill you.
(8:58:27 PM): That's happening in an American city.
(8:58:36 PM): But what about the rest of you? The day's actually pretty great!
VJockey 8:58 pm
(8:58:43 PM): [Okay Volya... think carefully... the ward was on ground level.... the window is riiiight over there... but then Setsuko was ALSO still in the hospital... but then that would mean he needs to get through the door.]
(8:58:58 PM): [GAAAAH! THIS KIND OF PROBLEM SOLVING ISN'T HIS THIIIIING!!]
cubey@aol.pl 8:59 pm
(8:59:09 PM): Bad news for Volya, Setsuko is still in the waiting room, not suspecting that anything bad is happening.
arachnion01@gmail.com 8:59 pm
(8:59:23 PM): Sarah: "...Hey, do you mind if we talk outside for a minute?"
VJockey 9:00 pm
(9:00:45 PM): [Okay... DIPLOMACY! GO!]
(9:01:03 PM): "You mean talk and not killing me right?"
Aero 9:01 pm
(9:01:42 PM): Willis is busy washing Merrygate after borrowing all that money from May for his date with Mizuki.
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:02 pm
(9:02:10 PM): Sarah pinches the bridge of her nose. Jacob is RIGHT THERE, and TEN..."Yeah, just talk."
Atrament Corel 9:02 pm
(9:02:15 PM): Seta has been training (read: messing around) with that new weapon she got after her last canon mission. Which is why she's been missing lately.
tengusaur 9:02 pm
(9:02:49 PM): While this is going on, Hetepheres is fulfilling some of her duties as an ambassador and doing paperwork. Which means two of her subordinates are doing paperwork and she's overseeing the process/slacking off.
VJockey 9:02 pm
(9:02:56 PM): [Seriously heavy gulp as he shuffles over to the door...]
(9:03:16 PM): "... Was nice meeting you Jacob."
tengusaur 9:03 pm
(9:03:18 PM): Not entirely slacking, though. Because Heph can't get the feeling that something is not right.
Aero 9:03 pm
(9:03:29 PM): Willis: "Just two more months...just two more months and it'll all be paid back."
VJockey 9:04 pm
(9:04:02 PM): [A look into Volya's current thought process? 'Okay maybe this won't be so bad... ohgodPleasedon'tkillmePleasedon'tkillmePleasedon'tkillme!']
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:04 pm
(9:04:57 PM): Over Jacob's assorted protests, Sarah walks out to the waiting room with Volya and closes the door behind them. "Ugh...Okay...ten minutes."
VJockey 9:05 pm
(9:05:29 PM): "What?"
(9:05:35 PM): "I... don't... what?"
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:06 pm
(9:06:14 PM): "Look, I'm thankful for what you've done and all, but the whole world is still kind of a bigger deal than my kid, so...I can give you ten minutes. A head-start."
VJockey 9:06 pm
(9:06:36 PM): ".. I guess that's fai-"

wyverncakes 9:06 pm

VJockey 9:07 pm

wyverncakes 9:07 pm
(9:07:04 PM): GET WORD TO SETSUKO NOW...
VJockey 9:07 pm
(9:07:26 PM): [PANIC! FLEE! RUNRUNRUN RUN FOR YOUR LIIIIFE LITTLE RUSSIAN!]
cubey@aol.pl 9:07 pm
(9:07:45 PM): Setsuko: "Volya?! What... what is going on?" She jumps up from her seat. "Why are you running away?!"
VJockey 9:09 pm
(9:09:47 PM): [Skids to a stop panting, giving Setsuko an alarmed look as he frantically points in the direction he came from.]
(9:10:06 PM): "Knight lady! Kid's mother! Need to go! Nownownow!"
wyverncakes 9:10 pm
(9:10:32 PM): Not to mention also get word to the other Unity Group people!
cubey@aol.pl 9:10 pm
(9:10:56 PM): "What are you..." Wait, if you think about Volya's origins for a second, this actually makes sense. But not in a good way.
(9:11:21 PM): Setsuko: "... We need to get out of here, now." She grabs Volya by hand and drags him out of the hospital.
VJockey 9:11 pm
(9:11:36 PM): [He wasn't going to argue here, just flee for his life!]
wyverncakes 9:11 pm
(9:11:42 PM): Tick, tock, tick, tock...
wyverncakes 9:11 pm
(9:11:56 PM): Hey Sarah?
(9:11:59 PM): You're getting a phonecall.
cubey@aol.pl 9:12 pm
(9:12:18 PM): Setsuko: "Umm, can you hear me? There has been a situation." She talks to a communicator. Surely Unity Group is smart enough to equip its pilots with such!
wyverncakes 9:12 pm
(9:12:42 PM): ???: "Sarah... I heard you were at the hospital. Paying a visit to... well, you know."
(9:12:45 PM): "How is he?"
Aero 9:12 pm
(9:12:47 PM): Willis: "Hmmm what's wrong Setsuko?"
cubey@aol.pl 9:12 pm
(9:12:52 PM): Setsuko: "People who are after Volya are around. I don't know if they have any machines or how many of them are there."
wyverncakes 9:12 pm
(9:12:54 PM): And fortunately that is the case!
Aero 9:12 pm
(9:12:59 PM): Willis just finished up with Merrygate.
cubey@aol.pl 9:13 pm
(9:13:10 PM): Setsuko: "Please send someone to pick us up. Hurry!"
tengusaur 9:13 pm
(9:13:17 PM): Hetepheres: "A situation? Do go on. I shall be right there." She's already moving out of her office. "Prepare the Scaraber!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:13 pm
(9:13:19 PM): Oh great just in the middle of an elaborate morality discussion with her friggin' ten year old. "Better than ever. You won't believe who showed up to help out..."
wyverncakes 9:13 pm
(9:13:22 PM): Scramble time!
Atrament Corel 9:14 pm
(9:14:04 PM): Seta: "Um...driving is not one of my strong points..." Look around, look around...what should she do...?
VJockey 9:14 pm
(9:14:23 PM): [Damnit... getting...tired... woozy.... feeling faint...]
Aero 9:14 pm
(9:14:28 PM): Willis: "Well...I have this car..."
wyverncakes 9:14 pm
(9:14:32 PM): The voice on the other line is slient for just a moment. But then... "I see..."
cubey@aol.pl 9:14 pm
(9:14:34 PM): "Don't worry, our friends are on their way. We just need to hide somewhere until they come..." Setsuko tries to reassure the young Russian.
VJockey 9:14 pm
(9:14:37 PM): "Uugh...]
Aero 9:14 pm

wyverncakes 9:14 pm
(9:14:40 PM): END THAT SCENE!
tengusaur 9:15 pm
(9:15:12 PM): Hetepheres: "This is no time for small-scale vehicles. Use your mecha."
wyverncakes 9:16 pm
(9:16:00 PM): Setsuko, you and Volya are now nearing where you've stored the Virgola. But unaware to either of you since neither one has a stopwatch on-hand...
Aero 9:16 pm
(9:16:06 PM): Willis: "Seta and I can call our mecha from far away. Besides, a car will be a lot less conspicuous."
wyverncakes 9:16 pm
(9:16:07 PM): ... Your ten minutes have just elapsed.
ginkansk 9:16 pm
(9:16:26 PM): Raquel "Whatever works best... we best get moving."
Aero 9:16 pm

Atrament Corel 9:16 pm
(9:16:29 PM): Seta: "I will be right there, Willis!"
(9:16:43 PM): And before long she's already in the car.
wyverncakes 9:16 pm
(9:16:47 PM): Above you two there is a glint of gold and white...
(9:17:00 PM): And then suddenly a single beam of light hurtling down at both of you!
(9:17:05 PM): (React: Setsuko and Volya!)
tengusaur 9:17 pm
(9:17:09 PM): Hetepheres: "Can its speed keep up with the rest of our units? Do not stay behind." And with those words, Scaraber takes off to the sky, wings buzzing!
wyverncakes 9:17 pm

Aero 9:17 pm
(9:17:42 PM): Willis just has a large grin on his face "Don't worry, I won't have a problem. You might want to strap in Seta."
wyverncakes 9:17 pm

Atrament Corel 9:18 pm
(9:18:09 PM): Seta: "Alright..."
(9:18:17 PM): Suddenly she has a bad feeling about this...
VJockey 9:18 pm
(9:18:19 PM): *When Interitus bursts out of the ground to interpose itself between it and its target+
wyverncakes 9:18 pm
(9:18:19 PM): You're getting another message now!
cubey@aol.pl 9:18 pm
(9:18:30 PM): Setsuko: "Aah! Get down!" *She tries to leap away while holding Volya with both of her arms, in a frantic and very desperate effort.+
wyverncakes 9:19 pm
(9:19:03 PM): Samuel: "... So fast-... Just great. Everyone, Setsuko wasn't kidding about what she said before."
Aero 9:19 pm
(9:19:38 PM): Without any further warning Willis shifts the gear and floors it. The car practically flies out of Alhambra base and...well Seta there's another very dangerous expression on Willis' face.
(9:20:03 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4SX3JuL63c
wyverncakes 9:20 pm
(9:20:59 PM): [Setsuo and Volya] The two of you dive to the pavement... but fortunately that wasn't necessary and nor did Setsuko's crazy dimension jumping kick in! No, as the Lobera's beam comes striking down, it's the Interitus that makes the save, guarding both of you from the attack and fortunately not appearing much more worse for wear!
Atrament Corel 9:21 pm
(9:21:01 PM): Seta: "...Wait...waaah!! Is this supposed to go this fast...?!"
cubey@aol.pl 9:21 pm
(9:21:30 PM): Setsuko: "Volya's plant guardian?!"
(9:21:39 PM): She looks up. Well, that thing just saved them both.
wyverncakes 9:21 pm
(9:21:47 PM): ???: "Saved... but that thing did more damage to the pavement than I would have."
(9:21:53 PM): Setsuko, now's a good time to get to the Virgola!
VJockey 9:22 pm
(9:22:03 PM): "Mmph?!"
(9:22:11 PM): [Interitus!]
cubey@aol.pl 9:22 pm
(9:22:18 PM): No need to tell her that. She's going already, while letting Volya go.
(9:22:47 PM): Setsuko: "Don't worry, our allies will be here soon, I'll use Virgola to defend us before they come. Trust me!"
(9:22:54 PM): She does not sound like she trusts herself too much though.
VJockey 9:22 pm
(9:22:56 PM): "O.. okay!"
wyverncakes 9:23 pm
(9:23:00 PM): ???: "And now no doubt, the Unity Group's moving to respond as well. All of this... if only I'd fired a half-second sooner."
(9:23:02 PM): And sure enough!
(9:23:28 PM): Rescue team, you're quickly arriving on the scene, seeing the knightly machine in the sky!
(9:23:43 PM): ???: "And speak of the Devil's protecttors."
cubey@aol.pl 9:24 pm
(9:24:23 PM): Setsuko: "You call a young boy the Devil? Are you really so desperate to attack in the middle of a city?"
tengusaur 9:24 pm
(9:24:28 PM): Hetepheres: "Knights of Guiding Hand, we meet again."
VJockey 9:24 pm
(9:24:29 PM): [Within moments Interitus' kneels as its torso opens up as several vines both shift out of the way and snatch Volya up, pulling him into the guardian beast before it closes again.]
cubey@aol.pl 9:24 pm
(9:24:36 PM): Trying to boot the machine up. Go, go, go!
tengusaur 9:25 pm
(9:25:06 PM): Hetepheres: "What in the world possessed you to fight in the middle of a busy city?"
wyverncakes 9:25 pm
(9:25:25 PM): ???: "If I'd been allowed to, the only destruction inflicted would've been the loss of the boy's life. I'm not a monster, and I'd rather not destroy the world or even part of it in pursuit of saving it from him."
(9:25:54 PM): Considering the negligable damage done to Interitus... yeah, that attack was definitely on the weaker side of things.
(9:26:03 PM): ???: "... But-"
(9:26:09 PM): ???2: "Sir Percival!"
VJockey 9:26 pm
(9:26:11 PM): [Actually]
(9:26:16 PM): [Scratch that.]
Atrament Corel 9:26 pm

ginkansk 9:26 pm

(9:28:09 PM): ???2: "We heard that the by was here! And... the Unity Group as well..."
(9:28:22 PM): There's a few familiar machines present, along with some new ones!
tengusaur 9:28 pm
(9:28:25 PM): Hetepheres: "You still stubbornly persist in your goal. Very well. I do hope you shall do your best not to cause any damage to the city or the people living here, then." With a single move, Scaraber draws four khopeshes at once - one for each arm.

wyverncakes 9:30 pm
(9:30:55 PM): [Willis] As Volya is getting rescued though... "He's getting away!" Suddenly one of the more ornate Defenders charges forward! Its sword flies out, stabbing into the ground right in front of the sportscar! And Willis... yeah, sorry. Your rented car just drove through the blade, cutting it perfectly down the middle! Good news is that nobody's harmed!
(9:31:02 PM): Bad news is, the same can't be said for your wallet!
VJockey 9:31 pm

wyverncakes 9:32 pm
(9:32:00 PM): The voice of that Defender... it was David! Volya, that was your friend!
(9:32:19 PM): David: "Volya, I'm sorry, but... if you don't die then everyone will...!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:32 pm

wyverncakes 9:36 pm

And struggle as he might to continue the attack, there's also Seta getting in his way! "G-Get out of the way!" he cries, sorta unaware of exactly who he's dealing with. The finger's stopped cold though when Seta's fist collides with it, the power of a mook not enough to match Seta's own Kijin abilities!

ginkansk 9:43 pm
(9:43:49 PM): *Raquel sees the incoming attack on Heph and moves to act launching her self at them tyring to put them off the mark from slamming into them.+
VJockey 9:43 pm
(9:43:49 PM): [Volya doesn't comment that it was his best friend who tried to kill him.]
wyverncakes 9:44 pm

VJockey 9:44 pm

tengusaur 9:44 pm
(9:44:17 PM): * Hetepheres quickly turns around, crossing all four of her swords - it's a double cross! She uses that to block the incoming strike, and also her Noble Barrier, which is in golden anti-physical mode right now. +

tengusaur 9:45 pm

VJockey 9:45 pm

wyverncakes 9:47 pm

Atrament Corel 9:47 pm

(9:48:26 PM): Sarah: "Well, then I guess we're gonna be throwing down, you and I."
wyverncakes 9:48 pm
(9:48:53 PM): [Hetepheres and Raquel] Nathaniel's Arondight has naught at its disposal but a single, electrified sword. But that's enough as he manages to use his free hand to guard him somewhat from Raquel's kick and knock Raquel aside. And Heph, your Noble Barrier MAY protect from purely physical attacks, but the Arondight's Lightning Blade is the best of both worlds, with electricity still bypassing the field and shocking your machine something fierce!
(9:49:21 PM): Percival: "Even if what you say is true... the facts remain."
Atrament Corel 9:49 pm

wyverncakes 9:50 pm

wyverncakes 9:50 pm

Aero 9:51 pm

wyverncakes 9:52 pm

wyverncakes 9:53 pm
(9:53:25 PM): "But the alternative is just covering up something we KNOW to be true. And that kind of knowledge, when it's not acted on... that's a worse fate than you can imagine."
Aero 9:53 pm
(9:53:49 PM): Willis: "...You have no idea."
wyverncakes 9:53 pm
(9:53:52 PM): And in regards to Heph's claim, Nathaniel just snorts. "If you can try."
VJockey 9:53 pm
(9:53:59 PM): [Interitus is going to scramble past David to quickly pick Volya up, then move past the entangled knight. Volya's really unsure what to do here... he could run but... everyone's fighting because of him...]
arachnion01@gmail.com 9:54 pm
(9:54:23 PM): *That lamppost crumples, but Sarah jumps off as it's hit, and lands a few yards away from Seta. "Well, let's see what you've got." She takes a fighting stance, and her hands glow red with energy. "Been a while..." She kicks off the ground, dashing towards Seta for a rock-shattering punch.+
tengusaur 9:54 pm
(9:54:41 PM): Hetepheres: "Allow me to show you, then. For a start, you shall be my opponent."
VJockey 9:55 pm

wyverncakes 9:56 pm
(9:56:33 PM): [Seta] Well then Seta. The gauntlet's been thrown and you're going head-to-head with a very experienced, capable human! Her speed's incredible, her power most likely the same! And yeah, you're durable as they come but still...
(9:56:38 PM): (React: Seta)
ginkansk 9:57 pm
(9:57:26 PM): Raquel "A cover up...?"
Atrament Corel 9:59 pm

(9:59:27 PM): Worth noting that her legs are now covered by silver greaves.
wyverncakes 10:01 pm
(10:01:06 PM): [Volya] The not-Fungal Growth is launched at the Brave, the machine retorting to throwing its cape at the attack! "Hate to sac protection like this... but if it ends this fast!" The Brave charges forward, slamming its axe down and into the ground! The ground in front of it rumbles, not severely because, again... what Percival said about people dying, but it's still enough to knock both the Virgola and Interitus off-balance a bit! Enough for the Brave to then charge on ahead again and attack Interitus!
(10:01:08 PM): But that's not all!
wyverncakes 10:01 pm

VJockey 10:02 pm

Aero 10:04 pm
(10:04:43 PM): * As for the Brave, something falls from the sky and crashes right in front of the Brave with it's own sword in hand to block that strike. It's Strahlend...how the hell did it get there so quickly? Willis meanwhile looks like he's concentrating pretty hard on something, even as he runs straight for his own machine. +
wyverncakes 10:04 pm
(10:04:58 PM): [Seta and Sarah] The two of you collide, blows landing! Seta, the punch connects with the side of your face, pain spreading to the point of impact everywhere it can. If you were just a normal human, that could've very well been the end of you. Fortunately it's not, just knocking you back and leaving you dazed for a few moments as your own kick smashes into Sarah's side! The older woman's sent flying a short distance as well, the worrisome sound of bones cracking faintly being heard.
tengusaur 10:05 pm

wyverncakes 10:05 pm

VJockey 10:06 pm
(10:06:44 PM): *Volya flinches, Toby has his back but his front... he feels fear... and an instinctive tug at his senses from... he barely even thinks. Both of Interitus' arms thrust out to unleash a barrage of vines to entangle the Brave!&
wyverncakes 10:08 pm
(10:08:33 PM): [Willis, Toby, and Volya] Well, the surest way to stop a pincher is to make an Oreo to, well, you get the idea. The Strahland moves to guard against the Brave's attack... but the machine's hefty nature lets it unfortunately more-or-less swat the Strahland to the side in one blow and tear part of it off. Oh well, give it enough time and nobody'd ever know. It still buys Volya the time to bind up the bulky Brave though! And Virgola Unit 2 has considerably better luck with stopping the Defender's own attack!
wyverncakes 10:08 pm
(10:08:45 PM): David: "Why... why are you bothering protecting him...!"
(10:09:08 PM): There's a sort of desperate frustration to his voice... a far cry from the other knights' rhetoric.

(10:09:32 PM): (Setsuko, Hetepheres, and Raquel can act)
cubey@aol.pl 10:09 pm

(10:09:42 PM): Setsuko: "Toby? And the Chief..."
Aero 10:09 pm
(10:09:55 PM): Willis: "I think that's a pretty good reason."
tengusaur 10:09 pm
(10:09:59 PM): Hetepheres: "Because he is under Unity Group's protection. And I doubt that is going to change anytime soon."
wyverncakes 10:10 pm

VJockey 10:10 pm

Atrament Corel 10:10 pm

tengusaur 10:12 pm
(10:12:32 PM): * "Now, into the fray!" Hetepheres moves towards Arondight, slashing at the knightly mecha with two of her blades! But she's striking defensively, mostly to keep her opponent's sword occupied than anything - fortunately, khopeshes are good at catching other blades. Also, her barrier switches to silver. &
VJockey 10:12 pm
(10:12:34 PM): "Aah... that...thanks.."
wyverncakes 10:13 pm
(10:13:04 PM): [Volya] The Brave's power is indeed being drained, Seraphina first voicing confusion before... "Not... gonna let you just... weasel out of this!" Brute force isn't exactly working for the Brave in this situation, but it still grabs hold of its sword... a sword that quickly lights itself in a fiery blaze, letting her cut the machine free!
VJockey 10:13 pm
(10:13:59 PM): [Volya lets out a yelp of pain as Interitus quickly withdraws its vines.]

cubey@aol.pl 10:14 pm

wyverncakes 10:14 pm
(10:14:48 PM): [Glory Stars] Well... David was being cautioned about not losing his head. Unfortunately, he didn't have a say in it as the Defender's just completely shot up from afar. "H-hey... n-nooo! Tha'ts... not faaiiii-" Try as he might to counter, Denzel had experience, surprise, and a tech advantage on his side. The Defender goes down like a total bitch. Which would be great, except...
cubey@aol.pl 10:15 pm
(10:15:26 PM): Denzel: "That's one down. Good job defending our friend while we were in transit, Star Three."
wyverncakes 10:17 pm
(10:17:26 PM): [Glory Stars] Seeing one of their own shot up like that and tentatively surrounded? Yeah, Percival's Lobera is moving in to pick the machine up in one hand, while rocketing towards Unit 1! "... You were wise to spare his life. Defenders, cover my flank!" And suddenly Toby and Setsuko are beset by more of the Knight mooks, shields and swords slashing down as they get in range, with Denzel himself getting beset by the rapid slashes of Percival personally!

(10:20:17 PM): *The two raise their Carvers - Toby's Barley Scythe and Setsuko's Jack Carver are both deployed, and start parrying the attacks that go in their direction. At the same time...
ginkansk 10:20 pm
(10:20:31 PM): *Raquel seems content to go after the Defender shtough she does seem she's tyring to disbale today for whatever reason. She shifts her machine aiming to com in low and try to kick the legs out from under one, flip away and tackle a second one in her wake.+
VJockey 10:21 pm
(10:21:17 PM): *Interitus moves to assist Denzel, pulling a sword from the mass of vines... sadly unlike the Lobera, its swings and slashes are clumsy and uncoordinated.+
cubey@aol.pl 10:21 pm
(10:21:37 PM): Denzel: "You guys are decent, you know that? If not for one thing..." *Virgola unit 1 seems to wait while Lobera moves at it.
wyverncakes 10:22 pm
(10:22:03 PM): [Hetepheres] In spite of your numbers and the khopeshes own anti-sword design, Nathaniel nevertheless manages to hold his own as you continue your semi-offensive! The silver barrier wards off the electricity of the Lightning Blade, leaving it a purely physical danger too, but the Knight keeps the blade tight in both of his hands, working to bat the khopeshes away! "If only I knew where your cockpit was so I could be sure not to hit it...!" The best he can safely do to you though is abruptly swing up a leg to kick away one of your khopesh-wielding limbs and quickly slash down, taking the limb off at the wrist!
(10:22:11 PM): Still, now he's open for a brief instant!
(10:22:17 PM): (React/continue: Hetepheres)
cubey@aol.pl 10:23 pm
(10:23:04 PM): *But as Percival draws closer, Denzel throws the Carver in his hands - rotating it so the heft side is at the front, and shoves it forward to meet the sword, hoping to force it stuck in the melee part of the weapon. Which is followed by sending the whole thing slamming down to the ground.+
(10:23:15 PM): Denzel: "But that thing makes all the difference!"
wyverncakes 10:24 pm
(10:24:19 PM): [Raquel] Well, the obvious reason is these guys are misguided... but not necessarily jerks. Reason enough as you knock one to the ground with your sweeping strike that tears off its legs at the ankles while the other is smashed into the pavement.
tengusaur 10:24 pm
(10:24:53 PM): "I know where yours is not for certain. And that is here!" Suddenly, using her free hands, Hetepheres quickly draws her staff, unfolds it to full length, stabs its head into Arondight's shoulder and fires a brief, but powerful laser right into it! +
wyverncakes 10:26 pm
(10:26:30 PM): [Heph] Well, yes indeed that's not where it is! And Nathaniel pays for taking the Scaraber's hand with taking a blasts that costs his own machine its entire limb, blasting it backwards and leaving it to pry its blade from its fallen limb. "Wel... well played..."
tengusaur 10:27 pm
(10:27:14 PM): Hetepheres: "I have three more arms to spare. What about you?"
wyverncakes 10:29 pm
(10:29:46 PM): [Glory Stars and Volya] Setsuko and Toby do an admirable job of holding out against the lowly Defender mooks, and in the meantime Denzel's Gunnery Carvery stops the Lobera's blade, the weapon lodging in the gun's backside! However, as Denzel tries to slam it down the weapon seems to begin to glow, gathering additional energy as it tears itself free from Denzel's trap! And in that period of time he moves to continue his attack again... right before having to spin around and guard against Interitus's clumsy defense!
(10:30:01 PM): Percival: "It has... no technique to those blows...!"
(10:30:08 PM): But then...
(10:30:29 PM): Suddenly a whole slew of more energy signatures begin to spring up!
(10:30:52 PM): Nathaniel: "Percival!"
tengusaur 10:30 pm

wyverncakes 10:32 pm

The blade cuts through several in one go, and several of the Bugs that moved to evade are still shot to bits by Seta's gunshots!

tengusaur 11:02 pm

Hetepheres pushes forward, cutting through them with her khopeshes, and using the resulting explosion as a smokescreen - a smokescreen from which Scaraber suddenly jumps out and drives all of its blades into the attacker! If there's any damage to be had from this attack, she still has her Noble Barrier in golden mode. +

Strahlend's body begins to turn a lot darker as the beams approach, Willis sets his machine to focus only on quickly repairing and reinforcing itself. The spinning Quicksilver even disappears to give himself more to work with.+

Code: Rebellion!" And in a burst of light, her white Craft appears, this time complete with a long, tattered cape that billows as it takes to the air, launching white spheres of light at the giant enemy and the Huleh+!
wyverncakes 11:06 pm
(11:06:02 PM): [Heph] Well, actually Heph... those were normal, explosive missiles. Rather the Knights' own "Spark Missiles", opting more for electrical damage than explosions. The good news is you destroy them before they can breach your barrier, but you're also lacking that smokescreen you were hoping for. The Knight banks to the side, trying to parry your blades though it can only manage to knock two aside before the third stabs into its side. But before you can finish it off, the machine kicks you away with all its strength and you land painfully on the ground!

And one of the others gets caught up with Raquel, the customized Huckbein's energy blast forcing it to try to dodge to the side before returning fire!

wyverncakes 11:10 pm
(11:10:14 PM): [Heph take 2] The missiles, not actually explosive but rather electrical, get destroyed with the Scaraber getting let off with a much smaller shock than it would've otherwise. Unfortunately, no smokescreen though, so the Knight is able to bank to the side to try to avoid your attack and parry your blades... succeeding with the first two but not getting the third in time. It settles instead for cutting off your limb with its laser blade, and pulling the khopesh out.

The sphere of light splits into a number of smaller spheres that explode upon contact, either with their targets or any projectiles headed in Seta's direction!+
arachnion01@gmail.com 11:16 pm
(11:16:59 PM): Sarah: "...Huh." As the tentacles fall away from Tiankui, it's got a dull red glow from the energy shoved into it. "...It's gonna be hard to keep a lid on all this..." There is a thunderclap, and Tiankui is gone. A crater lies where it stood, as the force of it kicking off the ground and dashing back into the fray utterly destroyed the ground beneath it. Sarah's target is the enemy ship, and she moves almost too fast for the eye to follow as she goes to kick it. Specifically, she is trying to kick it out of the city.&
wyverncakes 11:18 pm
(11:18:01 PM): [Denzel] The powerful energy cannon blasts out, but the not-funnels/"Slaves" scatter as if acting on a reflex. Seven of them are still obliterated by the beam, but the Bird's response to Denzel's intervention is simple. Unleash its own energy cannon blast at Unit 1, an attack that even manages to catch and damage a number of Bugs that were too close to the firing lane! BUT... as it comes hurtling in, Percival's Lobera is still there for the automatic support defense, the machine's shield at the ready!
wyverncakes 11:19 pm
(11:19:05 PM): Percival: "Ga-gah! David... if this can't be held... flee!" Energy is pushing out from his shield as well, but the Aerogator machine's own seems just so much stronger...
(11:19:45 PM): The Lobera goes flying crashing into a nearby small building, parts of it blown clean off though you're still picking up a life sign from it.

wyverncakes 11:21 pm

Still, your energized arms do protect you to a degree from the Knight's counterattack, one of them buckling from the strain of the attack and you getting blown off your feet, but you're still okay!
wyverncakes 11:24 pm
(11:24:08 PM): [Sarah and Seta] Seta's little kinda-Hellzone Grenade trick does manage to thin out some more of the Slaves, minimizing the damage the RB takes... several more of them also heading towards the Huleh! And there's Tiankui heading towards the Huleh too...! Except... the Bird from before isn't unaware of this, moving to intercept with blinding speed to match Tiankui's! From its hand a large beam saber generates, the machine slashing down at the attacking limb!

Your polearm still stabs into the machine's side, but it's far from a critical blow on such a large machine.

To say nothing about the damage it inflicts on the Huleh, striking that exposed weak point.
wyverncakes 11:40 pm
(11:40:49 PM): [Volya] And Heph's not the only one trying to thin out the mooks! The various Bugs are the easiest and most numerous threat to depower, and draining them makes life considerably easier for the various knights as they engage in their own fights as well!

(11:41:06 PM): *Virgola unit 3 already charged after in a followup strike. The Jack Carver is set up and prepared - and stabs into the deep wound on the side of the capital ship. Having penetrated its armor, it starts slicing in a single, long go.+
wyverncakes 11:43 pm
(11:43:52 PM): [Setsuko and Sarah] And just as Sarah unleashes her salvaged attack on the ship, Unit 3's following in 2's footsteps, cutting into and then expanding on that wound, dicing the Aerogator vessel up more and more... before Sarah's supercharged attack finally connects, pushing the vessel up and up...
(11:44:39 PM): The damage to Tiankui is meaning this kind of attack is putting a nasty strain on both the machine and its pilot, but she still manages to focus the blast...
(11:45:00 PM): ... Piercing through the damaged section of the vessel before it finally explodes in a flashy explosion!
(11:45:42 PM): There's a very brief pause with the remaining, and still somewhat numerous Aerogator forces.
wyverncakes 11:46 pm
(11:46:09 PM): ... Right before the Great Bird suddenly has one of its Slaves blow apart a stray Bug.
(11:47:22 PM): The other machines suddenly seem to get this message, and suddenly chaos erupts right before you, with the remaining Bugs and Soldiers suddenly just opting to engage in their own personal teamkill-fest. A rather explosive one too, on account of, well... everything.
(11:47:51 PM): Seraphina: "H-heh! They're all just scared now on account of-"
cubey@aol.pl 11:47 pm
(11:47:52 PM): Setsuko: "What's going on? Why did they act like this?"
Atrament Corel 11:47 pm
(11:47:56 PM): Seta: "...What..?"
wyverncakes 11:48 pm
(11:48:05 PM): Percival: "...T-the stronger ones!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 11:48 pm
(11:48:16 PM): Sarah: "They really don't want to leave anything behind to be analyzed, huh..."
tengusaur 11:48 pm
(11:48:16 PM): Hetepheres: "They are not going to be a threat to the city anymore. Enjoy the bizarre spectacle."
wyverncakes 11:48 pm
(11:48:34 PM): Sure enough, the damaged Lobera is pointing at the remaining two Knights and the Great Bird, now fleeing.
(11:48:47 PM): And actually quite far away.
(11:49:32 PM): Dirchs: "... Using the confusion of that to cover an escape. Along with not possibly not wanting to leave their tech behind."
(11:49:40 PM): "... They're stepping their game up."
wyverncakes 11:50 pm
(11:50:21 PM): Indeed, there's a reasonable chunk of the city that's just now a complete wreck. Honestly, David's road-stab that started all of this is the least of it now.
(11:50:29 PM): And speaking of the Knights...
tengusaur 11:50 pm
(11:50:42 PM): Hetepheres: "We have succeeded in driving them off. That is the most important part."
VJockey 11:50 pm
(11:50:45 PM): "...."
wyverncakes 11:51 pm
(11:51:09 PM): Percival's just walking back towards the other machines. "And we should be fortunate enough our own battle was incentive to start evacuation. With that in consideration, hopefully nobody died here."
Atrament Corel 11:51 pm
(11:51:34 PM): Seta quickly sets down her Craft and dismisses it once she's on the ground. It still strains her to maintain that after all.
cubey@aol.pl 11:51 pm
(11:51:41 PM): Setsuko: "I... am not sure." She looks around the devastation.
arachnion01@gmail.com 11:51 pm
(11:51:46 PM): Sarah: "Hey, percy, you alright in there? You took a lot of hits..."
cubey@aol.pl 11:51 pm
(11:51:57 PM): "If we were not here to intervene, it would be much worse than this... right?"
wyverncakes 11:52 pm
(11:52:00 PM): There's some more grumbling from the Knights' commander.
arachnion01@gmail.com 11:52 pm
(11:52:16 PM): Sarah: "Good to know."
wyverncakes 11:52 pm
(11:52:22 PM): Nathaniel: "If they would have attacked this place regardless of us being here, yes."
(11:52:26 PM): "So for that..."
(11:52:36 PM): Percival: "Everyone. We're leaving."
VJockey 11:52 pm
(11:52:51 PM): "..!"
wyverncakes 11:52 pm
(11:52:55 PM): The damaged Lobera turns to you all. "This city has seen enough destruction, and we have damaged in the streets."
(11:53:09 PM): "I do not want to risk anyone else's life here today. Even Volya's."
(11:53:17 PM): "He's saved my son's life-"
(11:53:20 PM): WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?
VJockey 11:53 pm
(11:53:26 PM): "!!!!"
tengusaur 11:53 pm
(11:53:29 PM): Hetepheres: "If not for our united defense of the city, it would have probably been razed to the ground completely. The casualties would have been very high."
cubey@aol.pl 11:53 pm
(11:53:32 PM): Toby: "Come on. I know a few organisations who attack us just because Unity Group's there, I don't think we need to add Aerogators to the mix."
VJockey 11:53 pm
(11:53:32 PM): "Jacob is-"
(11:53:40 PM): "..."
(11:53:54 PM): [Ow.. OWOWOW. Brain. Hurt. Too much to deal with.]
wyverncakes 11:54 pm
(11:54:00 PM): "... And he was crucial in dealing with the Aerogator's warship. For that, we can look away. Just this once."
VJockey 11:54 pm
(11:54:27 PM): "...Thank you..."
wyverncakes 11:54 pm
(11:54:37 PM): David: "Y-you're kidding! All that talk of him... of him destroying the world and..."
(11:54:40 PM): His voice is just trailing off.
(11:54:44 PM): Nobody cares about you David.
cubey@aol.pl 11:54 pm
(11:54:46 PM): Denzel: "I hope it's not just a one time thing. You just experiened it yourself - better to work with us, not against."
VJockey 11:54 pm
(11:54:56 PM): [Yeah his heart sort of sinks here.]
wyverncakes 11:54 pm
(11:54:57 PM): The Lobera just hefts up the wrecked Defender.
VJockey 11:55 pm
(11:55:09 PM): [Best friend wanting to murder him that badly? Not a good feeling.]
wyverncakes 11:55 pm
(11:55:24 PM): "And any conflicts, disregarding Volya, you can count on the same."
Atrament Corel 11:55 pm
(11:55:37 PM): Seta: "I will say that...I do not wish to have to fight you again..."
wyverncakes 11:55 pm
(11:55:46 PM): "But for now... good bye."
(11:56:20 PM): The knights with functioning arms salute. The ones without but working waists bow. And after that? They depart.
(11:56:23 PM): MISSION
(11:56:25 PM): ACCOMPLISHED
tengusaur 11:56 pm
(11:56:44 PM): Hetepheres: "If you attack again, we shall fight against you again as well. That will not change, but we shall fight with honor. Farewell."

(11:57:51 PM): Raquel "Nice to see your heads are not up your asses in the face of other threats sir Knights. Think about what your doing and judge him by his actions and not the words of a long dead mytics..."
