(1:17:40 PM): So then, a Model W was recently detected!
(1:18:30 PM): Finding out about it was actually rather easy too, on account of a number of islands in the Pacific spontaneously just rising up into the sky.
(1:19:00 PM): However, currently you all find yourselves in Star Rose's briefing room, rather than Sakihama or Alhambra's.
VJockey 1:19 pm
(1:19:04 PM): "... Huh... just like home."
drascin 1:20 pm
(1:20:10 PM): Ashe: So, can someone explain why we're up here when there's a Model W going around down there?
wyverncakes 1:20 pm
(1:20:16 PM): Roland Antov: "During our initial attempts to scout the region though... we ran into some... difficulty."
(1:20:32 PM): A number of images flash up on screens of strange gun emplacements.
tengusaur 1:21 pm
(1:21:07 PM): Roger: "It looks like whoever raised those islands isn't very fond of visitors."
wyverncakes 1:21 pm
(1:21:08 PM): (Pulse Cannons: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Pulse_Cannon)
VJockey 1:21 pm
(1:21:11 PM): "...Those... don't look too friendly. Were they always there?"
wyverncakes 1:21 pm
(1:21:16 PM): Roland nods: "Yes, that's the problem."
(1:21:46 PM): "These cannons were not excessively strong, but they had a secondary effect making use of gravity manipulation."
drascin 1:22 pm
(1:22:12 PM): Ashe: ...ow. How high did you say those islands were, again?
wyverncakes 1:22 pm
(1:22:26 PM): "Aircraft struck by them would feel as if the pull of gravity was strong, disrupting their engines and making stable flying at high altitudes impossible."
(1:22:28 PM): "That's why..."
(1:22:33 PM): He swallowed nervously.
(1:23:03 PM): "We've decided that sending a team there by conventional means -a shuttle- would be too risky."
wyverncakes 1:23 pm
(1:23:19 PM): "Instead, we will be striking from above. Orbital insertion."
cubey@aol.pl 1:23 pm
(1:23:29 PM): Izuru: "EEEEEH?!"
drascin 1:23 pm
(1:23:44 PM): Ashe: Wait, we're dropping on their heads from orbit?!
cubey@aol.pl 1:23 pm
(1:23:54 PM): Izuru: "Commander, are all our units even capable of atmospheric reentry?"
drascin 1:24 pm
(1:24:02 PM): Model A: That's horrible!
Ashe: That's AWESOME!
cubey@aol.pl 1:24 pm
(1:24:03 PM): He knows Red Five is. Kinda. But what about others?
VJockey 1:24 pm
(1:24:06 PM): "... Cool!"
wyverncakes 1:24 pm
(1:24:16 PM): Roland nods. "We've never had this need before, but we do have drop-pods on standby."
VJockey 1:24 pm
(1:24:21 PM): [Peola claps her hands excitedly.]
wyverncakes 1:24 pm
(1:24:45 PM): He's breathing a sigh of relief that the idea is going over at least moderately well.
tengusaur 1:24 pm
(1:24:50 PM): Roger: "Quite a flashy way to make an entrance. I am okay with that!"
ginkansk 1:24 pm
(1:24:53 PM): Raquel "This is going to be fun....orbital drop time!"
tengusaur 1:25 pm
(1:25:17 PM): Roger: "I hope you made calculations to make sure none of us will burn in the atmosphere or crash at a wrong place and die."
drascin 1:25 pm
(1:25:26 PM): Model A: You people are CRAZY!
wyverncakes 1:25 pm
(1:25:30 PM): Roland shakes his head.
drascin 1:25 pm
(1:25:34 PM): (sadly nobody can hear his wails)
cubey@aol.pl 1:25 pm
(1:25:49 PM): Izuru: "If there's no other choice... we'll do it!"
(1:25:54 PM): Hey, who let him decide for others?
wyverncakes 1:26 pm
(1:26:03 PM): "Even if conventional shuttles and the like can't go near the base, we have forces on standby to try to rescue anyone who falls."
tengusaur 1:26 pm
(1:26:47 PM): Roger: "That works for me. Let's enter from above for once, Big O."
wyverncakes 1:27 pm
(1:27:36 PM): "The goal of the operation is to locate and dispose of the Model W itself. It appears to be powering the island's defensive measures, so once it is finished off -or even just enough turrets are disposed of- we'll be able to provide safe evacuation."
(1:27:53 PM): "So then... let this operation begin!!!"
VJockey 1:27 pm
(1:27:55 PM): [Peola has an eager grin on her face as she gets into her machine, nodding the whole time.]
drascin 1:28 pm
(1:28:00 PM): Model A: ...if that hunk of metal you have falls I don't think anything is going to be able to catch you...
Ashe: Hush, Model A, be nice, it's not polite to call other people's robots fat
VJockey 1:28 pm
(1:28:11 PM): "Awaken thine spirit! Regalis Filia!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:28 pm
(1:28:11 PM): Izuru: "Let's find that Model W and rescue everyone. Right, Ashe?"
wyverncakes 1:28 pm
(1:28:12 PM): And with that Roland makes a broad, gesture with his hand, almost immediately wondering if he overdid it.
drascin 1:28 pm
(1:28:29 PM): Ashe: Of course! Let¡s go!
(1:28:57 PM): And aShe zooms off, megamerging mid-run with a shit-eating grin
tengusaur 1:29 pm
(1:29:03 PM): Roger: "I agree with Ashe. Besides, Major Kagura is a woman, I doubt she would appreciate hearing if you called her that!"
wyverncakes 1:29 pm
(1:29:04 PM): At the hangar, the machines unable to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere properly are already getting loaded into drop-pods.
(1:29:24 PM): Those of you who don't need it, your machines are still being prepped for combat.
tengusaur 1:29 pm
(1:29:48 PM): While speaking, Roger climbs up Big O to enter its cockpit.
ginkansk 1:30 pm
(1:30:39 PM): Raquel gets in her machine strips, suits up and locke her self into play and gets ready to drop. "Ready to go here."
VJockey 1:30 pm
(1:30:59 PM): "Ready to go!"
wyverncakes 1:31 pm
(1:31:07 PM): You're all cleared for the drop, map data coming in to show you the general layout of the floating islands. It's a rather moderate landmass to say the least. Even Daitarn 3 would have sufficient stomping ground to work with if it was coming along.
(1:31:26 PM): Also, a very strong energy signature in one section of the islands too... no doubt the location of the Model W.
tengusaur 1:31 pm
(1:31:38 PM): Roger: "Let's enter the scene with panache. Big O, showtime!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:31 pm
(1:31:42 PM): Izuru: "Phew... did Model W's power lift all of this?"
wyverncakes 1:32 pm
(1:32:07 PM): Roland: "'Power' might not be the right word for it..."
(1:32:34 PM): "But records about them indicate their strange effects on regions..."
drascin 1:33 pm
(1:33:07 PM): Ashe: Pretty big effect, this. I've seen a lot of weird artifacts, but they're normally a lot more localized
wyverncakes 1:33 pm
(1:33:16 PM): You're cleared to make the drop, and once you begin your insertion, the Earth will fast be coming up on you!
VJockey 1:33 pm
(1:33:44 PM): [Oh yes, she remembered when she first arrived on Earth... the speed, the intensity...]
(1:33:56 PM): [She also remembered she was screaming the whole way down.]
cubey@aol.pl 1:34 pm
(1:34:01 PM): Izuru: "Alright. Red Five, here I go!"
wyverncakes 1:34 pm
(1:34:08 PM): Before you are nothing but clouds and the blue swath of the ocean... but as you continue down even further... you see it!
cubey@aol.pl 1:34 pm
(1:34:09 PM): He's surprisingly calm about this
tengusaur 1:34 pm
(1:34:12 PM): Roger pulls the switch, activating the drop! And his cockpit starts to shake instantly, making him brace in his chair and clench his teeth.
VJockey 1:34 pm
(1:34:18 PM): "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
wyverncakes 1:34 pm
(1:34:21 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70ljdWKNjb4
(1:35:03 PM): Far higher up than any island had any right to be... there is your target!
drascin 1:35 pm
(1:35:11 PM): Ashe: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Model A: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
wyverncakes 1:35 pm
(1:35:46 PM): Floating platforms, strong gusts pushiing every which way... and also a lot of outward-facing turrets swinging up to try to open fire on you all!
(1:35:53 PM): (React: everyone)
(1:36:02 PM): Those are those plasma cannons from before!
cubey@aol.pl 1:36 pm
(1:36:33 PM): Izuru: "I won't let you hit!"
wyverncakes 1:36 pm
(1:36:51 PM): At the vey least, it's just damage you have to worry about. There's solid ground underneath you, for the most part.
cubey@aol.pl 1:37 pm
(1:37:48 PM): *Red Five spins to reposition itself - the AHSMB lunges down, adding extra thrust to fly even faster! It will drop fast enough for the cannon blasts to fly harmlessly over it. At least, that's the plan.+
VJockey 1:38 pm
(1:38:03 PM): *Peola is going to use her sizable sword to shield herself!+
ginkansk 1:38 pm
(1:38:30 PM): Raquel is having a hell of lot of fun as she starts to fall to the ground with everyone else. "whee!": Raquel attemps to uyse ki fuekd about her arms to parry the attacks+
drascin 1:38 pm
(1:38:36 PM): *Once the atmosphere reentry is done with,, and the islands are in sight, the door on Ashe's pod slams out as she kicks it off.
Ashe: And here we go!
...and she jumps, falling like an arrow and dodging by veering her downward trajectory! Let the cannons hit the pod!+
tengusaur 1:38 pm
(1:38:57 PM): Roger: "Would you look at that. They're so happy to see us they prepared a gun salute for our welcome!" Suddenly the door in his pod opens, and Big O steps out of it, covering the last distance towards the ground on its own! While falling it shields itself from the attack with its massive forearms... And then lands atop a turret or two! +
(1:39:17 PM): Roger: "Unfortunately, that's not good enough!"
wyverncakes 1:40 pm
(1:40:00 PM): [Izuru] You're fortunate enough to be attacking from a direction these cannons most likely weren't intended to defend against! The plasma cannons were having enough trouble spinning around to be brought to bare against you as it was, and the sudden boost in speed lets you land safe and under their shots!
cubey@aol.pl 1:40 pm
(1:40:26 PM): Izuru: "Alright! Red Five has landed!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:40 pm
(1:40:53 PM): Izuru: "... Suruga would love to be here, I think." His unit looks around, trying to get a feel of its surroundings.
wyverncakes 1:41 pm
(1:41:00 PM): [Ashe and Roger] Meanwhile, your pods soak up the damage from the shots, taking some nasty knocks and seeming to fall even faster as a result... but that's not a problem! And when you spring fourth you both land safely too! Big O even lands with a satisfying crunching noise!
tengusaur 1:41 pm
(1:41:50 PM): Big O raises from the small crater its impact created.
(1:42:05 PM): Roger: "That was a big rough, but I think I could get to enjoy this."
drascin 1:42 pm
(1:42:07 PM): Ashe: WOOOOOOO! She's clearly having the time of her life freefalling at terminal speed with gunfire all around her. And then she somersaults and lands on her feet a second before touching ground)
wyverncakes 1:42 pm
(1:42:18 PM): [Rquel and Peola] Meanwhile, your attempts to defend from the shots go over... relatively okay. The ki barriers ward off the gravity shots just fine, but Peola... as you continue to guard with your blade suddenly it grows heavier and heavier... before it slips from your grasp and falls even faster than you! It lands much harder than one might think... but fortunately you still land okay right afterwards!
(1:42:31 PM): ... If cut off from your blade at least a little.
griefgathering has entered the room. 1:42 pm
drascin 1:42 pm
(1:42:46 PM): Ashe: Remind me to try this again!
VJockey 1:43 pm
(1:43:22 PM): "Tch!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:43 pm
(1:43:33 PM): Izuru: "It must be different than when you're in an AHSMB, I guess..."
VJockey 1:43 pm
(1:43:34 PM): "Damnit... Lost my sword!"
wyverncakes 1:43 pm
(1:43:54 PM): ???: "Well... if you wish, little girl... there's always a far bigger plunge if you take enough steps in any direction..."
cubey@aol.pl 1:44 pm
(1:44:16 PM): Izuru: "An enemy?!"
wyverncakes 1:44 pm
(1:44:23 PM): Off in the distance, you can see the floating, purplish figure of the Model W.
(1:44:35 PM): But there's another figure rising up much closer to you all.
drascin 1:44 pm
(1:44:41 PM): Ashe: ...we could have landed a bit closer, though
wyverncakes 1:45 pm
(1:45:18 PM): It's a Maverick!
wyverncakes 1:45 pm
(1:45:24 PM): (Queenbee: http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070614065208/megaman/images/thumb/b/bc/ZXAKaizemine.jpg/200px-ZXAKaizemine.jpg)
(1:45:57 PM): Queenbee: "So, you've come to extinguish the brilliant flower of the Model W?"
drascin 1:46 pm
(1:46:18 PM): Ashe: Well, yeah. Got any objections to it, lady?
wyverncakes 1:47 pm
(1:47:22 PM): "Many... I've heard from Prometheus about you. Mega Man Model A."
wyverncakes 1:47 pm
(1:47:28 PM): "And the Unity Group as a whole!"
(1:47:56 PM): "Like mindless drones searching for nectar, you came here..."
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:05 PM): "HEY!"
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:15 PM): "But what you'll find is my special nectar... of despair."
drascin 1:48 pm
(1:48:22 PM): Ashe: So you're with Prometheus, then?
cubey@aol.pl 1:48 pm
(1:48:23 PM): Izuru: "Is everything she says bee-related?"
drascin 1:48 pm
(1:48:29 PM): Ashe: Where's that creep hiding?!
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:35 PM): "Probably..."
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:37 PM): At once, Queenbee's massive lower section began to open up... countless smaller bee drones beginning to flood out of her!
cubey@aol.pl 1:48 pm
(1:48:48 PM): Izuru: "Ah, I should have seen that coming!"
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:49 PM): "But if anything... she should be afraid!"
tengusaur 1:48 pm
(1:48:53 PM): Roger: "Enough with the bee puns for now, please. A battle will not be necessary, if you are willing to cooperate. What do you want in exchange for the Model W?"
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:57 PM): "Despair, with a hint of bitterness!"
(1:49:19 PM): (Enemies: Queenbee, Plasma Cannons x 7, Bee drones x 40)
wyverncakes 1:49 pm
(1:49:34 PM): (Initiative: Ashe, Peola, Izuru, Raquel, Roger)
(1:49:38 PM): (Ashe, Peola, Izuru)
(1:49:53 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvtKcrj-yAI
drascin 1:49 pm
(1:49:56 PM): Ashe: Sorry, lady, I don't DO despair!
cubey@aol.pl 1:51 pm
(1:51:09 PM): Izuru: "Yeah, it'd be nice if you didn't want to fight."
wyverncakes 1:51 pm
(1:51:54 PM): Queenbee: "The Model W will stay with myself and my master."
ginkansk 1:51 pm
(1:52:00 PM): Raquel "Damn whom ever they are they are really not wanting us here. So ya we come to stomp the model W."
VJockey 1:52 pm
(1:52:13 PM): *Peola's going to make a mad dash for her sword to tear it out of the ground it was most likely embedded in before turning to unleash the sweeping lash of energy at the bee drones!+
tengusaur 1:52 pm
(1:52:16 PM): Roger: "Master. Do you mean Prometheus?"
wyverncakes 1:52 pm
(1:52:23 PM): "The Unity Group would no doubt destroy it, ridding its potential to spread despair and destruction through the world!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:52 pm
(1:52:43 PM): Izuru: "Why do you want to spread despair so much?!"
drascin 1:53 pm
(1:53:12 PM): *And with that Ashe dashes forward, attracting the shots of the plasma cannons... and suddenly as they shoot there's a flash and Vulturon stands there, guitar in the air.
Vulturon: Let me ROCK your world, lady!
...and with that she hits the strings and a powerful showckwave explodes around her, redirecting the plasma shots into the bee swarm!+
wyverncakes 1:53 pm
(1:53:15 PM): Queenbee: "I follow another Mega Man... and if you choose to follow the Model A, then there can be no other choice for us than this!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:53 pm
(1:53:29 PM): *Red Five's arms raise and snap into firing position - the triple barreled chaingun in one hand and the chain rifle in the other, sending a barrage of gunfire both physical and energy at the Queen bee.+
VJockey 1:53 pm
(1:53:39 PM): "Aaaargh... she sounds like a broken record!"
tormterra has entered the room. 1:53 pm
VJockey 1:53 pm
(1:53:46 PM): "Despair this! Bee pun that!'
wyverncakes 1:54 pm
(1:54:12 PM): [Roger] Suddenly Queenbee's ports open up again, missiles firing out in odd directions, but they all seem to zero in on different sections of Big O!
(1:54:14 PM): (React: Roger)
(1:55:35 PM): [Ashe] You move forward, and in defense of their master, the functioning cannons in this region turn to fire on you! But the sudden shockwaves do their job just fine, smashing through the frail bees!
tengusaur 1:56 pm
(1:56:24 PM): * "So that's your response? Very well then!" Roger activates the Arc Line, Big O's eyes flashing and then emitting two bright laser, which he then arcs over the incoming swarm of missiles, trying to shoot down as many as he can before they reach the Megadeus! +
wyverncakes 1:57 pm
(1:57:44 PM): [Izuru] And in the meantime, as Big O comes under fire from Queenbee, you're taking the fight to the Queen herself! The bullets and beams strike her sizable lower section, but the Queen just opts to continue using it as a shield! "Bringing the heat already? I don't mind it being hot!" Lights seem to emenate from Queenbee's body, harmless at first before they suddenly grow bright, flash-burning whatever they strike... and you're caught in their path!
(1:57:47 PM): (React: Izuru)
wyverncakes 1:58 pm
(1:58:37 PM): [Peola] You grab hold of your sword, the energy wave you send forth cutting through several of the bees! But they break ranks and move to try to swarm you, attacking you from behind!
(1:58:39 PM): (React: Peola)
(2:00:06 PM): [Roger] Your eye lasers do an admirable job thinning out the crowd, the warheads detonating prematurely! But they're fast, and for every two you shoot down, a third slips through. Big O's struck by several and knocked around a bit, but you're far from out of the fight!
(2:00:14 PM): (Roger and Raquel can now act)
VJockey 2:00 pm
(2:00:26 PM): *With the incoming attack Peola swings around, blade in one hand, scarf in the other to catch some drones to use as a makeshift flail! And she'll continue to swing and spin to keep the rest of them off of her!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:00 pm
(2:00:31 PM): Izuru: "Woah!" *Red Five jumps back, spinning mid-air and getting out of dodge!+
wyverncakes 2:01 pm
(2:01:39 PM): [Izuru] And a good thing too! The scalding heat from these sudden beams torches the ground where you were, and you can still feel the intensity of these burning shots...
(2:01:56 PM): Queenbee: "Perhaps it's all the better that you've all come..."
drascin 2:02 pm
(2:02:29 PM): Vulturon: Man, these guys can never see which way the tune's going. C'mon, Queenbee, no matter how good your act is, we have you outnumbered and outgunned. You gotta realize you either lay down or face the music.
Model A: uhhhh, Ashe...?
Vulturon: ...darn it, seems that being Vulturon gives me his ear for stupid music puns!
wyverncakes 2:02 pm
(2:02:30 PM): "A island such as this can only become a flower of burnin beauty once..."
tengusaur 2:02 pm
(2:02:38 PM): Roger: "Don't think I'm going to just let you spread despair all over the world." Big O approaches one of the turrets with heavy steps, protecting itself from fire with its shields - and when it's close, it lands several punches on it, trying to weaken its base! &
wyverncakes 2:02 pm
(2:02:42 PM): "And if you were not here to witness it, then who would?"
wyverncakes 2:05 pm
(2:05:26 PM): [Peola] The spinning chopfest you become continues to hack through the drones try to move towards you! Your scarf doesn't manage to really catch any though on account of actually being bigger than them, but it still knocks them around and away from you!
(2:06:23 PM): [Roger] You move right into the turret's metaphorical face, and its anti-air designation is clear to see now as it can't lower itself down to get a shot against you! Big O's fists pummel its frame... but some of the other cannons are instead turning to fire on you instead from their more ideal locations!
(2:06:28 PM): (React/continue: Roger)
ginkansk 2:07 pm
(2:07:01 PM): Raquel isn't going to mess about at this point as she goes after the plasma turrtets intending to get up close and start taking them apart with her fists!+
wyverncakes 2:07 pm
(2:07:15 PM): Queenbee: "Do not think, Mega Man Model A, that I will follow the same fate as Vulturon before me..."
VJockey 2:07 pm
(2:07:25 PM): [Peola stomps on the ground heavily, shaking her head. Admittedly she wished she didn't because everything was rattling and spinning.]
wyverncakes 2:07 pm
(2:07:34 PM): "After all... you're in my garden now... nad my handwork is plain to see!"
VJockey 2:07 pm
(2:07:38 PM): "..O... okay... don't know if I want to do that again..."
wyverncakes 2:08 pm
(2:08:27 PM): Indeed, the fires are spreading everywhere, climbing up trees, burning up large patches of grass in an instant... strangely no animals here though.
(2:09:18 PM): [Raquel] The Amazon is smaller than Big O, and this is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it's even harder for the turrets to open fire on you, but on the other hand you're also much smaller...
drascin 2:09 pm
(2:09:24 PM): Ashe turns back so that she may reply without stupid music puns
wyverncakes 2:09 pm
(2:09:38 PM): ^Smaller and not striking as much of it at once. And more importantly...
(2:10:21 PM): ???: "Queenbee, in your desire to spread your word, you forget who is the master here..."
(2:10:32 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jy04YxVidU
drascin 2:10 pm
(2:10:33 PM): Ashe: I hear that kind of thing a lot. Usually about five minutes before I'm handcuffing the guy. Excuse me is I'm not impressed. (Ashe seems infuriatingly calm and smiling. Queenbee clearly does not intimidate her even a little bit)
(2:10:48 PM): Ashe: Wait, who's that?
wyverncakes 2:11 pm
(2:11:02 PM): [Raquel] And suddenly there's a green figure charging straight at you with blinding speed! No bigger than Ashe herself, and striking with a pair of energy blades!
(2:11:05 PM): (React: Raquel)
tengusaur 2:11 pm
(2:11:07 PM): * Roger: "There. See how powerful your own machines are! Eeey~!" Big O raises one arm, turning around to shield itself from the incoming blasts... While using the other fist to launch a powerful punch at the weakened turret. The strike is powerful enough to send it flying into the sky, towards Queen Bee! +
drascin 2:11 pm
(2:11:14 PM): #Raquel
wyverncakes 2:11 pm
(2:11:17 PM): (Approved)
(2:11:28 PM): (Afterwards you can take your turn. Peol and Izuru can also take their turns)
drascin 2:12 pm
(2:12:33 PM): *And suddenly in the middle of the green thing's trajectory a shadow BAMFs into shape, blocking with two giant shurikens+
(2:12:52 PM): (I kinda want to see what I just blocked before taking my turn)
wyverncakes 2:13 pm
(2:13:05 PM): [Roger] Your arm does a bang-up job keeping you from getting banged up, and your other fist sends what's left of the turret hurtling straight at Queenbee! Unfortunately... more forces are charging into the battlefield! Gigantic bird-like machines which smash through the turret and protect their queen!
(2:13:09 PM): New enemies are arriving!
ginkansk 2:13 pm
(2:13:15 PM): Raquel was not expecint this she attempts to open fire with her head vulcans on the speedy attacker.+
cubey@aol.pl 2:14 pm
(2:14:17 PM): Izuru: "There's even more of them?"
wyverncakes 2:14 pm
(2:14:30 PM): [Raquel and Ashe] The newcomer's charge is stopped by Ashe's intervention, but only briefly! The shurikens crash against energy blades, but the figure just seems to jet around them suddenly, spiraling around the Amazon's vulcan fire, and kicking the Huckebein instead!
wyverncakes 2:14 pm
(2:14:47 PM): It's... another Mega Man!

drascin 2:15 pm
(2:15:40 PM): *Ashe bounces off, turning back into herself as she lets go a barrage of bouncing lasers to entrap the zooming enemy+
VJockey 2:15 pm
(2:15:44 PM): *Peola's going to charge at Queenbee, sword ready to cut! Most people would think jumping her was a bad idea... but when you consider that the attack she was about to pull relied on both speed and weight... well... it played to her needs well. Regalis Filia leaps high into the air before swinging her blade downwards to SMITE AND CLEAVE!!!+
drascin 2:15 pm
(2:15:46 PM): Ashe: Another Mega Man?!
wyverncakes 2:16 pm
(2:16:00 PM): ???: "Correct..."
(2:16:10 PM): "I am Aeolus, Mega Man Model H!"
(2:16:37 PM): "And I knew it was only a matter of time for the Unity Group to intervene here."
drascin 2:16 pm

tengusaur 2:16 pm
(2:16:52 PM): Roger: "I presume you're the one who really is behind this whole situation?"
wyverncakes 2:17 pm
(2:17:24 PM): Aeolus: "I didn't place the Model W here, but I do intend on taking advantage of it, unlike you fools who merely wish to destroy it!"
(2:18:12 PM): (Quick enemy update now: Aeolus, Queenbee, Bees x 19, Turrets x 5 (1 damaged), Orehawks x 3)
cubey@aol.pl 2:18 pm
(2:18:12 PM): Izuru: "Taking advantage? You just want to abuse its power for your own gains!"
tengusaur 2:18 pm
(2:18:27 PM): Roger: "What do you intend to do with it?"
drascin 2:19 pm
(2:19:00 PM): Ashe: You didn't actually answer my question, you know. And don't you know Model W is dangerous?
tengusaur 2:19 pm
(2:19:21 PM): (got anything on Orehawks?)
wyverncakes 2:19 pm
(2:19:29 PM): (One moment)
ginkansk 2:19 pm
(2:19:39 PM): Raquel gets a boot to the head and she somewhat feels it the head's one of the few things which not as an intense feel ba k but there's been left quite the mark there. Damn it they need something smaller to deal with things like this...

wyverncakes 2:20 pm
(2:20:22 PM): [Ashe]Your shots lock onto Aeolus's form, but the green Mega Man rockets forward, weaving through them in a way reminiscent of how Izuru outpaced the cannons from before! "What do you expect? I'll continue fighting in the Game of Destiny, and more importantly eradicate all of you!"
(2:20:35 PM): (Stupid copy-paste)
VJockey 2:20 pm
(2:20:58 PM): "I'd like to see you try!"
wyverncakes 2:21 pm
(2:21:09 PM): [Ashe cont.] Aeolus swings both of his blades forward, a wave of energy coming from them straight at you!
(2:21:14 PM): (React: Ashe)
(2:21:29 PM): Aeolus: "Dangerous?"
(2:21:34 PM): He snorts.
drascin 2:21 pm
(2:21:35 PM): Ashe: Do you actually know what this stupid Game of Destiny is ABOUT?!
(2:21:46 PM): Ashe: If you do, TELL ME!
wyverncakes 2:22 pm
(2:22:22 PM): "Many things in this world are dangerous, Ashe! But what makes the Model W so much different than bombs and ships and machines and countless other things?"
(2:22:26 PM): "All it is... is fear!"
drascin 2:22 pm
(2:22:41 PM): *And those blades are going to meet with an overhead axe - that is, Vulturon's guitar, slashing into them in a forceful parry aiming to continue towards Aeolus's chest+
wyverncakes 2:24 pm
(2:24:19 PM): [Peola] Your blade meanwhile swings down, but Queenbee herself counters with her massive lower section again! Your sword bites down on it, but this armored segment is tougher than it looks... and more importantly her stinger is facing your direction and fires! A burning blast of energy knocks you backwards, and another one is fired to follow-up and finish you off!
(2:25:55 PM): (React: Peola)
tengusaur 2:26 pm
(2:26:40 PM): Roger: "The purpose of my Megadeus is not to spread fear. It is a guardian. And it's certainly not a participant in some kind of mysterious game of destruction!"
drascin 2:26 pm
(2:26:53 PM): Model A: This guy is making no sense... hey, guy, explain!
cubey@aol.pl 2:27 pm
(2:27:20 PM): Izuru: "These guys just won't stop going about how evil they are!"
VJockey 2:27 pm
(2:27:24 PM): *Well crap! Guess she shouldn't have tried to run headlong against the enemy leader! She's doing her best to throw the Regalis Filia to the side AWAY FROM THE INCOMING HEAT RAY OF DEATH!+
(2:27:30 PM): "I know! It's irritating!"
wyverncakes 2:27 pm
(2:27:41 PM): [Ashe] Guitar meets blades, and your physical attact powers through Aeolus's ranged one, managing to knock him back!
(2:27:58 PM): Aeolus: "You talk of evil and destruction...?"
(2:28:12 PM): "People fear what they don't understand or can't control... and they will hate what they fear!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:28 pm
(2:28:28 PM): *Red Five circles back and flies at the Queenbee once again. The chain rifle fires quick scattering rounds at any foe that tries to interrupt the melee assault... before Izuru gets close in range and swings with the chainsword, a wild cut across the robot's body!+
wyverncakes 2:28 pm
(2:28:30 PM): "They hate Mega Men and the Model Ws... that's why you're here, isn't it?"
cubey@aol.pl 2:28 pm
(2:28:43 PM): Izuru: "You're wrong!"
wyverncakes 2:29 pm
(2:29:00 PM): "Scared and trying to fashion yourselves as heroes when you're all just cowards unwilling to see the other side."
drascin 2:29 pm
(2:29:10 PM): Ashe: I'm here because Albert has some insane scheme to destroy the world with these Model Ws!
wyverncakes 2:29 pm
(2:29:41 PM): (Izuru, Roger, Raquel)
tengusaur 2:29 pm
(2:29:43 PM): Roger: "I am a negotiator. If I hated anyone, if I weren't willing to at least see their point of view, then I'd be a pretty poor one!"
wyverncakes 2:30 pm
(2:30:04 PM): Aeolus: "You think there will be nothing left when the winner of the Game of Destiny finally has his way with the world?"
(2:30:15 PM): "I suppose I shouldn't be surprised though..."
(2:30:35 PM): "A money-chasing woman... unable to see the bigger picture.]
ginkansk 2:30 pm
(2:30:50 PM): Raquel now recoving from the hit turns on drones this time she's not going to just shoot at them she flies at them and attemps to do a flying kick into the bee drone's formation!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:31 pm
(2:31:34 PM): Izuru: "Anyone who thinks they can just change the world by winning a game is either evil or delusional!"
wyverncakes 2:31 pm
(2:31:39 PM): [Peola] This second heat beam smashes into the ground near where you are... even more flames erupting from it as it just goes on to form a massive inferno sphere! And when it subsides... there's nothing left! Just a big gaping hole in the ground!
drascin 2:31 pm
(2:31:58 PM): Ashe: Hey! What's wrong with getting paid? And I didn't like that tone in "woman", you little jerkface!
tengusaur 2:32 pm
(2:32:06 PM): Roger: "You are being awfully mysterious, but I understand what you told us so far. If you're not willing to share more information or change your stance, I will have no choice but to stop you!"
tengusaur 2:33 pm
(2:33:15 PM): * Big O raises both of its hands up and then lowers them with wide arcing gestures, connecting its fists together! A huge beam erupts from a corona around its head, flying towards one of the robotic birds and bees that happen to be on the way! +
VJockey 2:33 pm
(2:33:45 PM): "GAH!"
wyverncakes 2:33 pm
(2:33:49 PM): [Izuru] Fortunately you're there to continue the assault on Queenbee even as she's recovering from her attack on Peola! You even get an expression of shock from her, striking her upper body and making her reel back... but one of the Orehawks moves to assist the Maverick, flapping its wings and producing immense tornados... ones joining together with Queenbee's flames for a fiery hurricane headed your way!
(2:33:52 PM): (React: Izuru)
tengusaur 2:35 pm
(2:35:21 PM): Roger: "Allow me to handle the bigger targets. If this guy is as fast as he seems, he can probably fly in circles around Big O's fists. I'll leave him to you, Ashe!"
drascin 2:35 pm
(2:35:54 PM): Ashe: Oh you bet you can leave him to me.
(2:36:11 PM): Ashe hits her fist into her hand
wyverncakes 2:36 pm
(2:36:25 PM): [Big O] Your powerful headcannon sweeps through much of the bees and costs one of the Orehawks a wing! But the creature just roars in fury and charges at Big O, still making use of its superior speed on the ground and unleashing even more tornados to try to knock Big O off of the island!
(2:36:29 PM): (React: Roger)
tengusaur 2:37 pm
(2:37:01 PM): (is it attacking in melee or keeping away?)
wyverncakes 2:37 pm
(2:37:13 PM): (Moderate distance away right now)
wyverncakes 2:37 pm
(2:37:47 PM): (Ashe and Peola can act. Izuru can take his turn after his reaction or combine the two if he'd like)
cubey@aol.pl 2:38 pm
(2:38:09 PM): *Red Five tries to circle around the bee, putting her between the gusts of wind and the AHSMB while still facing the opponent.+
(2:38:15 PM): Izuru: "Uwah..."
drascin 2:38 pm
(2:38:55 PM): Ashe: well, then! I'm going to take you down and then you'll tell me what you know!
VJockey 2:39 pm
(2:39:02 PM): "Anyone have a plan?!"
tengusaur 2:39 pm
(2:39:46 PM): * Roger: "I had enough dropping for now, thank you very much. Moby Dick Anchor!" Two anchors shoot from Big O's waist-level ports, digging into the ground! The black Megadeus braces against the ground itself, raising its arms in defense against the blowing winds. +
wyverncakes 2:39 pm
(2:39:54 PM): [Izuru] Red Five's speed saves it once more. The same can't be said about said about the trees where it once was... but Queenbee is forced to dodge the burning winds too... and her lower segment strains heavily from the sudden evasive maneuver!
cubey@aol.pl 2:40 pm
(2:40:16 PM): Izuru: "Any second now... I got you!"
wyverncakes 2:41 pm
(2:41:04 PM): [Roger] The anchors bite into the ground, holding you steady even in the face of the wind! So much for it being the bane of sturdy, tanky giant robots!
drascin 2:41 pm
(2:41:13 PM): *And with that, Ashe surges forward, shooting in an arc as she locks on and lets go several blue lightning bolts at the flying Mega Man - but as the flash subsides, where is Ashe?
(2:41:15 PM): Answer: Buckfire is straight up and descending with a hell of a meteor kick that would make Captain Falcon proud, hoping to capitalize on the temporary blindness!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:41 pm
(2:41:20 PM): *He tracks where the Queenbee is fleeing... and fires a big beam of energy just where she should be. At a close range like that, escape will be difficult!+
VJockey 2:42 pm
(2:42:51 PM): *Peola grits her teeth and charges up her blade, hopefully this attack does a little more damage than the last time she attempted it on that submarine a while back. No irritating sister to distract her this time! With a step forward and a battlecry she thrusts her sword forward as she launches a piercing lance of ki at Queenbee - between this attack and Izuru's it should make things pretty hard on the despair obsessed Maverick!+
wyverncakes 2:43 pm
(2:43:48 PM): [Izuru and Peola] Indeed it does make things hard! The big beam from Red Five and Peola's ki strike pierce through Queenbee's armored lower section, and- "The missile stores...!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:44 pm
(2:44:06 PM): Izuru: "Eh?"
wyverncakes 2:44 pm
(2:44:52 PM): A chain reaction is triggered inside of the Pseudoroid, more and more of the section exploding violently before finally as Queenbee cries out!
(2:45:05 PM): Aeolus: "Queenbee...!"
(2:45:18 PM): The name is shouted more with annoyance, disappontment, and frustration than a sense of genuine loss.
(2:45:26 PM): But hey... the path to the Model W is clear now!
cubey@aol.pl 2:46 pm
(2:46:42 PM): Izuru: "Sorry, that wasn't much of a plan... but it worked anyway!"
drascin 2:46 pm
(2:46:56 PM): Ashe: Anything that works is a good plan!
wyverncakes 2:47 pm
(2:47:35 PM): (Anyone wanting to head towards the Model W can now. Free action)
(2:47:58 PM): [Ashe] And in the meantime, you continue the assault on Aeolus! The sparking bolts force Mega Man Model H on the defensive, and the sudden flaming Buckfire kick seems to catch him by surprise... but suddenly you're struck from the side by some sort of giant, floating disk-like object! "To think you of all people would force me to bring out my secret weapon... but don't forget where we're fighting, Mega Man Model A!"
(2:48:26 PM): Indeed... there's still those gun turrets from before, and now you're pretty high up and flying along like a plate for them to shoot down!
(2:48:32 PM): Which they immediately act upon!
(2:48:37 PM): (React: Ashe!)
drascin 2:48 pm
(2:48:44 PM): Buckfire: Well, nuts.
cubey@aol.pl 2:48 pm
(2:48:54 PM): Izuru: "Look out, Buckfir... Ashe!"
VJockey 2:50 pm
(2:50:56 PM): *Well with the way clear Peola's going to charge straight in! Better to get this over with sooner rather than later!+
ginkansk 2:51 pm
(2:51:20 PM): Raquel ha had enough of the fodder she's going to make a dive for the Model W this time ther's no physiocal attack as Raquel atar trying to make the air about the Model W Burst into burts of flame. "Can you take the heat?!"+
drascin 2:52 pm
(2:52:21 PM): *So, besieged on all sides, do you know what time is it? It's SHOWTIME! Ashe grabs a passing branch as she flies away, spins and lets the redirected momentum fling her upwards, like a gymnast - and then becomes Vulturon again, hitting the strings with a powerful heavy metal song that sends showckaves outwards, shielding herself!+
tengusaur 2:53 pm
(2:53:09 PM): Roger: "She has good influences."
wyverncakes 2:53 pm
(2:53:16 PM): [Peola and Raquel] You both move towards the Model W, but as you near it you can almost begin to feel the malevolent energy eminating from it. The ground around it is a far cry even from the torched, wasted sections of the jungle... but unfortunately someone else had something else in mind...
(2:53:51 PM): ???: "Sorry, but I can't let you do that!"

(2:54:59 PM): Prometheus!

cubey@aol.pl 2:55 pm
(2:55:43 PM): Izuru: "You again!"
wyverncakes 2:55 pm
(2:55:44 PM): [Ashe] Your quick-thinking energy barrier and recovery lets you ward off the cannon shots! And a good thing too, now with Prometheus showing up too just for kicks.
(2:56:34 PM): Prometheus: "It certainly has been a while, hasn't it?"
(2:56:39 PM): Aeolus: "Prometheus!"
drascin 2:56 pm
(2:56:44 PM): Ashe: What are YOU doing here?! Weren't you Albert's lapdog?
wyverncakes 2:56 pm
(2:56:57 PM): Prometheus: "Lapdog?"
(2:57:00 PM): He snorts.
wyverncakes 2:57 pm
(2:57:13 PM): "I am just safeguarding this Game of Destiny!"
(2:57:25 PM): "I can't have all of you destroying the Model Ws right out from under our noses...!"
(2:57:33 PM): Aeolus: "Prometheus, that was mine-"
(2:57:49 PM): Prometheus: "And if I didn't show up it wouldn't be anyone's, now WOULD IT?!?"
(2:58:08 PM): He raises his scythe up high, swinging down violently straight at Raquel's Amazon!
(2:59:00 PM): The attempted attack on the Model W is obliterated and Prometheus's continues towards Raquel, but...!
(2:59:08 PM): ???: "Mega Men?"
cubey@aol.pl 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): Izuru: "Who gave you the right to decide this?!"
tengusaur 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): Roger: "If you let Aeolus have it, it will not count as safeguarding the game anymore!"
wyverncakes 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): "A Game of Destiny? Fought between champions...?"

tengusaur 3:03 pm
(3:03:27 PM): Roger: "As I figured."
wyverncakes 3:03 pm

(3:12:01 PM): * The giant piston in Big O's arm goes back, gathering extra pressure! And, as soon as the Orehawk is pulled right next to the Megadeus... "Bye bye!" Roger launches a mighty punch at the bird, releasing the power inside the piston for extra explosive power - power that might rip a hole in the robot and/or send it flying towards other airborn enemies! +

(3:16:31 PM): Siarnaq: YOU. DON'T TOUCH. MY FRIENDS
wyverncakes 3:16 pm
(3:16:44 PM): [Peola] Your not-bat swings down, but the smaller man responds by striking back with his own scythe! The two weapons collide, your sword sheathe actually cracking from the damage! And more worrisome... "Queenbee was not the only master of flames here!" Suddenly a blast of fire erupts from the ground between the two of you, before another and another, zeroing in on your position!
cubey@aol.pl 3:17 pm
(3:17:42 PM): "Orrryaaa!" *Red Five continues its charge at Aeolus, but this time the unit lowers to crash into him with its body... or rather, kick him with the leg, and then kick itself OFF him, continuing its flight!+
wyverncakes 3:17 pm
(3:17:47 PM): (React: Peola)
wyverncakes 3:19 pm
(3:19:58 PM): [Roger] Big O's fist nearly impales the damaged Orehawk, pretty thoroughly putting it out of commission! The follow-up ends up smashing it into another of the robot birds, causing it to crash into a burning patch of trees. It screams angrily as the fire burns its paint and begins to melt its body, inflicting plenty of damage on it!
drascin 3:20 pm
(3:20:02 PM): *And without missing a beat she spins again, lands in the same direction she was running, and rushes Prometheus down, a kunai in each hand and goind straight for the face+
(3:20:15 PM): Siarnaq: YOU WILL. TELL ME. ABOUT THE STUPID GAME.
VJockey 3:20 pm
(3:20:34 PM): "!!"
ginkansk 3:20 pm
(3:20:43 PM): (Ignoe that last action my bad man)
(3:21:07 PM): Raquel "Hey fire is my thing bug girl...I think it's time we danced."
VJockey 3:21 pm
(3:21:31 PM): *Peola lets out a distinctively unladylike curse and leap away! Hopefully with enough distance and Xun in the way the fire won't hurt that much!+
wyverncakes 3:21 pm
(3:21:31 PM): (Queenbee's long-gone)
ginkansk 3:22 pm
(3:22:37 PM): (Nukes pose from orbit)
wyverncakes 3:24 pm
(3:24:45 PM): [Izuru and Ashe's support defense] Red 5 is strike by the electrical attack, but thanks to Ashe's intervention the damage is a lot less than what it could've been! Systems in Red 5 are still freaking out though... fortunately it's foot is still strong as ever, enough to hit Aeolus hard in a nice two-fer! It'd be reason for celebration as Aeolus grunts in pain from being kicked by such a larger machine... but... "You think... that's enough to stop me?!?" And an arm blade swings out, an air-rending slash cutting through one of Red 5's legs!
(3:25:08 PM): (Roger and Raquel)
cubey@aol.pl 3:25 pm
(3:25:19 PM): Izuru: "Uwah! This is not good..."
tengusaur 3:25 pm
(3:25:27 PM): (enemy list?)
cubey@aol.pl 3:25 pm
(3:25:28 PM): "Still, nice save! We'll win this one yet, you'll see."
wyverncakes 3:25 pm
(3:25:31 PM): Aeolus: "You have... only youself... to blame for that...!"
(3:25:59 PM): (Enemies: Aeolus (damaged), Prometheus, Turrets x 5, Orehawk x 2 (1 damaged/burning))
cubey@aol.pl 3:27 pm
(3:27:08 PM): Izuru: "Worth it! You're still much more hurt, I suggest you give up!"
VJockey 3:27 pm
(3:27:29 PM): "I don't think he'll give up easy!"
wyverncakes 3:27 pm
(3:27:36 PM): [Ashe and Peola] Meanwhile, Peola springs away from the erupting flames, more and more of the ground getting destroyed from release of energy! However, even though you're plenty in the clear, the Arma Vires still moves in between you and Prometheus's attack! "Fear not, Peola! The days of you fighting your own battles are long over!"
(3:28:09 PM): "You will be free to have a life of luxary and calm... my strength is more than enough to win all our battles! Huuaaaaaaaaaa!"
VJockey 3:28 pm
(3:28:44 PM): "...Its taking every bit of my willpower NOT to drag that hunk of junk off the closest edge of these Islands and just booting him off..."
cubey@aol.pl 3:29 pm
(3:29:23 PM): Izuru: "What's wrong with fighting your own battles?"
wyverncakes 3:29 pm
(3:29:48 PM): [Ashe and Peola cont.] And meanwhile, Ashe finally gets a face-to-face encounter with Prometheus! Daggers clash against his scythe, Prometheus grinning visciously! "Oh, you want answers? You just have to keep it up, Ashe. You're doing a good job so far... but the real obstacle now... just drop the pretention!"
(3:29:54 PM): "You're just another warrior in it, not a hero!"
ginkansk 3:30 pm
(3:30:20 PM): Raquel see that most of the enemy is thinned out and she notices that Aeolus is still going and she makes up her mind to go after him. She'll leave Prometheus for later, why? Because he's fresh and Aeolus is already damaged. SO she cups her machine's hands and yells a she fires two energy drgons form her hand which grow in size and seek out Aelous hopefully to explode if they manage to impact with him.+
tengusaur 3:30 pm
(3:30:39 PM): Roger: "Word of advice - you're not going to win a lady's heart if you're going to spout phrases like that!" While lecturing Xun, he activates another of Big O's weapons. Many ports open in its chest, and a large swarm of missiles fires, covering a big area in explosions - Roger aims for enemy mooks, the birds and the turrets! +
wyverncakes 3:30 pm
(3:30:48 PM): "You're more like us than you care to admit... after all, isn't the loss of some of your friends still a driving factor? Or have you even forgot about then already with your new ones? Material girl, material views, am I right?"
VJockey 3:31 pm
(3:31:30 PM): "Hey! How about you shut your useless mouth!"
wyverncakes 3:31 pm
(3:31:45 PM): Xun: "Indeed!"
drascin 3:32 pm
(3:32:13 PM): Siarnaq: SHUT.
(3:32:19 PM): Ashe: UP!
cubey@aol.pl 3:32 pm
(3:32:46 PM): Izuru: "Ashe isn't like that. You don't know anything!"
drascin 3:33 pm
(3:33:04 PM): Ashe turns back into herself and drives Prometheus's scythe upward before headbutting him straight in the nose with her spiky helmet
VJockey 3:33 pm
(3:33:12 PM): "He's just a jerk who sees what he wants to see and nothing else!"
drascin 3:33 pm
(3:33:17 PM): Ashe: I'm nothing like you!
(3:33:27 PM): Model A: Yeah! You tell him, Ashe!
wyverncakes 3:33 pm
(3:33:30 PM): [Raquel] Your energy dragons zero in on Aeolus, the injured Mega Man grunting in anger as his thrusters flare up! "Thinking I'm beat already? Guess again!"
(3:34:01 PM): [Raquel cont.] The dragons might be heading for him, but Aeolus just charges right back, energy blades burning bright as he chops through them like they were nothing, before zooming in to do the same thing to you!
(3:34:05 PM): (React: Raquel)
cubey@aol.pl 3:34 pm
(3:34:15 PM): # Raquel
wyverncakes 3:34 pm
(3:34:19 PM): (Approved)
(3:34:31 PM): Ashe's surprise retort and headbutt actually does get the better of Prometheus, causing him to reel back for a second...!
(3:34:33 PM): But...!
drascin 3:34 pm
(3:34:38 PM): Ashe: I have no idea what you're fighting for... but I'm not you! And I don't appreciate you using people to fight your stupid "Game"!
cubey@aol.pl 3:34 pm
(3:34:44 PM): Izuru: "You forgot what I said! This is our win!"
wyverncakes 3:35 pm
(3:35:11 PM): Xun: "Well said, ma'dam! You are entirely entitled to desiring only great riches of the world, be they shoes or jewelry of the highest calibur!"
cubey@aol.pl 3:35 pm
(3:35:36 PM): *Red Five lunges with an oustretched fist - like if Izuru was going to FALCON PUNCH Aeolus, but actually it's a defensive interpose as Red Five's hand generators create a force field at full power!+
drascin 3:35 pm
(3:35:38 PM): Ashe: And you shut up!
wyverncakes 3:36 pm
(3:36:05 PM): [Roger] Big O's cannons fire forth, pulverizing the remaining cannons, bees, and Orehawk while all this is going on. But there's still one last one striking out at you! From the flames itself the last of the giant mavericks flies straight at you, like some sort of ghetto Akashic Buster, screaming in rage!
(3:36:08 PM): (React: Roger)
(3:36:21 PM): Xun pays your last comment no mind, Ashe!
(3:36:40 PM): Instead, he just turns his machine's sole weapon, a collection of heavy-duty flak cannons to bear on Prometheus...
(3:36:48 PM): ... Not realizing you're also clearly in the crossfire!
(3:37:07 PM): Xun: "And now, vile monster... know your end at the hands of the Giga Man!"
VJockey 3:37 pm
(3:37:22 PM): "...WAIT! DON'T SHOO-"
wyverncakes 3:37 pm
(3:37:24 PM): He fires, devestating cannons tearing up the ground everywhere!
(3:37:33 PM): ... But oh crap, Ashe you're in danger of getting hit!
VJockey 3:37 pm
(3:37:37 PM): "SUN DAMNIT!!!"
(3:37:40 PM): #Ashe?
wyverncakes 3:37 pm
(3:37:44 PM): (Go for it)
(3:37:56 PM): ... And Prometheus himself just laughs psychotically as he just teleports out of the assault!
VJockey 3:38 pm
(3:38:28 PM): *With no other recourse Peola's going to throw the Regalis Filia in front of the oncoming hailstorm of metal to keep Ashe from getting hit - belting out an innumerable amount of cusses all the while!+
drascin 3:39 pm
(3:39:06 PM): *Well, time to NINJA THE FUCK OUT OF THERE by turning into Siarnaq and bamfing out of the way as fast as she can+
tengusaur 3:39 pm
(3:39:19 PM): * Roger: "Watch where you are firing, Giga Man!" While the bird is flying at him, he activates the Chrome Buster again (with the same gesture as before), firing the bright beam and engulfing the enemy in it! He keeps on channeling its energy until the hawk is incinerated! +
wyverncakes 3:39 pm
(3:39:24 PM): [Peola] You move to Ashe's defense, taking the shots that could've very well struck down your size-SS ally! Xun himself is in complete shock!
(3:39:35 PM): "P-Peola... why would you... defend such a man as tha-"
VJockey 3:40 pm
(3:40:00 PM): "In...case you didn't notice you complete idiot..."
wyverncakes 3:40 pm
(3:40:03 PM): Prometheus: "Well look how short-sighted you were! You didn't even see that girl you were praising just moments before...!"
VJockey 3:40 pm
(3:40:07 PM): "HE GOT OUT OF THE WAY WHEN YOU FIRED!!!"
drascin 3:40 pm
(3:40:36 PM): Siarnaq: GET BACK. HERE. PROMETHEUS.
wyverncakes 3:41 pm
(3:41:25 PM): Prometheus: "I'd rather not. A man that much of a buffoon is a bigger danger to the Model W than any of you!"
(3:41:41 PM): His grin grows even broader.
(3:41:51 PM): "Guess you'll have to keep playing the game to get those answers, Ashe!"
wyverncakes 3:42 pm
(3:42:05 PM): And with that, both he and the Model W are enveloped in energy and teleport away.
drascin 3:42 pm
(3:42:09 PM): Ashe transforms back and just clenches her teeth.
VJockey 3:42 pm
(3:42:13 PM): "...."
drascin 3:42 pm
(3:42:23 PM): Ashe: grrrrrr...
VJockey 3:42 pm
(3:42:25 PM): "Damnit..."
(3:42:38 PM): "Ashe... I'm sorry."
tengusaur 3:42 pm
(3:42:40 PM): Roger: "Tch... There goes the Model W..."
(3:43:01 PM): Roger: "At least it didn't fall into Aeolus' hands."
cubey@aol.pl 3:43 pm
(3:43:08 PM): Izuru: "Ah!"
VJockey 3:43 pm
(3:43:12 PM): "Still just as bad..."
wyverncakes 3:43 pm
(3:43:13 PM): [Roger] The Chrome Buster at the very least pierces through the screaming Orehawk, leaving it in pieces as it falls to the ground at Big O's feet, completely harmless.
(3:43:37 PM): Aeolus: "... No... for you... it's even worse than that!"
ginkansk 3:44 pm
(3:44:48 PM): Raquel stares how trhe hell did he do that. She bring her fist about to grab and /crush/ the Mega man.
(3:44:55 PM): +
wyverncakes 3:45 pm
(3:45:57 PM): [Izuru] Your barrier intervenes in Aeolus's attack on Raquel... but there's a remarkable fury in his strike! The barrier buckles, not being ruptured but still being knocked backwards! And as Raquel tries to grab and crush Aeolus he just falls back, swinging his blades forward again and cutting into and then through the Amazon's limb!
(3:46:04 PM): And then you all begin to feel something.
(3:46:14 PM): A sort of... weightlessness.
drascin 3:46 pm
(3:46:35 PM): Ashe: We're... falling?
wyverncakes 3:46 pm
(3:46:37 PM): Everyone flying/hovering under your own power, the island is getter smaller now.
(3:46:45 PM): Fortunately Big O's anchors are keeping it stuck to the island though!
drascin 3:46 pm
(3:46:48 PM): (Ashe being a megaman character she has a lot of experience with falling)
wyverncakes 3:46 pm
(3:46:59 PM): Aeolus: "... What do you expect? The Model W was removed!"
cubey@aol.pl 3:47 pm
(3:47:06 PM): Izuru: "Uh oh..."
drascin 3:47 pm
(3:47:18 PM): Ashe: ...oh shoot!
tengusaur 3:47 pm
(3:47:27 PM): Roger: "It stabilized the whole island..."
(3:47:34 PM): Roger: "I suggest we get out of here, fast!"
VJockey 3:47 pm
(3:47:35 PM): "This isn't good!"
wyverncakes 3:47 pm
(3:47:37 PM): "The source of the gravitational distortion is gone now... so...!"
VJockey 3:47 pm
(3:47:53 PM): "Somebody call for a shuttle!"
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:01 PM): With his immense mobility, Aeolus suddenly makes a sudden bumrush towards Ashe!
(3:48:24 PM): But that's not all... with his electric discs coming around again to keep others busy too!
drascin 3:48 pm
(3:48:39 PM): Ashe: Aeolus! You can-! Wait-?!
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:41 PM): Aeolus: "Losing the Model W's unfortunate... but if I can claim the Model A for myself...!"
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:58 PM): Izuru! Raquel, one of the electric sorta-bits is spinning straight at you!
(3:49:09 PM): Roger, another's headed towards you instead!
(3:49:11 PM): Peola...!
ginkansk 3:49 pm
(3:49:25 PM): Raquel lets out a scream as the arm's severed and she feels the feed back and her machine just starts falling, there's nothing... comming from her comm. nothing at all.
wyverncakes 3:49 pm
(3:49:34 PM): (You can react, you know)
(3:49:42 PM): Well... save for Peola
(3:50:13 PM): As much as you'd like to help, your machine isn't in good condition... and Xun's Arma Vires suddenly picks up the Regalis Filia!
(3:50:22 PM): Xun: "Forgive me, my love!"
(3:50:41 PM): "But I must make amends for my past mistake! I shall see you to safety no matter what!"
VJockey 3:50 pm
(3:50:55 PM): "WHAT THE HELL-?!"
tengusaur 3:51 pm
(3:51:19 PM): * Roger tries to block that incoming electric attack with Big O's arm-shields. It's too small to intercept in another way, and how exactly do you shoot down lightning? +
wyverncakes 3:51 pm
(3:51:24 PM): (So yes. Roger, Izuru, and Raquel can react to those. Ashe, react to Aeolus himself!)
cubey@aol.pl 3:51 pm
(3:51:37 PM): Izuru: "Guys, something really bad is happening with Raquel!"
(3:52:30 PM): "Ugh... hold!" *Izuru's barrier gets all the power channeled through it - please hold! At the same time, with Red Five's offhand he hopes to grab and hold onto Amazon.+
drascin 3:53 pm
(3:53:29 PM): *Ashe was going to try appealing to Aeolus's basic decency, and then this. First Prometheus, and now this. She's getting angry. And so, as Aeolus's blades descend on ashe, they bite deeply into Buckfire's arms, because he blocks them without caring about the pain and the damage.
Buckfire: "I'm SO!" the arms suddenly open, throwing the blades aside "FED UP!" the arms then close again "WITH YOUR STUPID GAMES!" and the mighty antlers of Buckfire descend straight into Aeolus's head, at roughly eighty kilometers per hour and a thousand degrees celsius!+
VJockey 3:53 pm
(3:53:31 PM): "Damnit you idiot!"
(3:53:37 PM): "What about my friends?!"
tengusaur 3:53 pm
(3:53:51 PM): Roger: "Raquel, can you hear me? We need to leave this place now!" Big O takes a step forward towards Amazon, but for now busy defending!
wyverncakes 3:54 pm
(3:54:21 PM): Xun: "We shall see fit to honor any fallen friends with tales of their bravery, one and all...!"
(3:54:24 PM): "What were their names again?"
VJockey 3:54 pm
(3:54:42 PM): "....................................."
tengusaur 3:54 pm
(3:54:55 PM): Roger: "Don't kill them preemtively just yet, 'Giga Man'."
VJockey 3:55 pm
(3:55:06 PM): [If her machine was still in any state of it, she would be pummeling Xun right now.]
wyverncakes 3:55 pm
(3:55:55 PM): [Roger and Izuru] The electric discs strike against your respective arm defenses... You manage to hold them off but between Big O's size and grounded nature and Red Five having to hold up the Amazon neither of you are in any position to do anything about Aoelus!
(3:55:57 PM): FORTUNATELY
(3:57:31 PM): [Ashe] Being struck by the blades hurt... nothing compared to what gets returned on Aeolus though as his offensive is broken and his face gets a faceful of horn. The enemy Mega Man screams in pain, being knocked backwards and being knocking off of the island and hurtling to the ground even faster than it!
(3:57:46 PM): The discs suddenly lose power and begin falling too!
wyverncakes 3:58 pm
(3:58:15 PM): And finally... the cavalry finally arrives as a shuttle comes hurtling down towards you all!
(3:58:56 PM): Shuttle pilot: "Holy moly... Roger! Everyone else who can't fly! Get aboard, quick!"
(3:59:31 PM): Xun: "I appreciate your offer, kind sir! But I will tend to my beloved's machine privately!"
drascin has left the room. 3:59 pm
drascin has been invited. 3:59 pm
tengusaur 3:59 pm
(3:59:51 PM): Roger: "Give me a moment, something is wrong with Raquel. And..."
VJockey 3:59 pm
(3:59:57 PM): "Ahaha."
tengusaur 3:59 pm
(3:59:57 PM): Roger: "You let go off her."
drascin has been invited. 3:59 pm
drascin has entered the room. 4:00 pm
drascin has left the room. 4:00 pm
VJockey 4:00 pm
(4:00:24 PM): "A little help please."
wyverncakes 4:00 pm
(4:00:28 PM): Xun: "But she is my beloved, and I am her soon-to-be provider!"
(4:00:37 PM): "Should I not repair her machine with my own two hands?"
cubey@aol.pl 4:00 pm
(4:00:38 PM): Izuru: "That's... not really for you to decide..."
tengusaur 4:00 pm
(4:00:40 PM): Roger: "If you truly care about her, you will let her do what she wants."
wyverncakes 4:00 pm
(4:00:50 PM): "Tend to her injuries myself...?"
drascin has entered the room. 4:00 pm
wyverncakes 4:01 pm
(4:01:06 PM): The tough crowd he's facing though, is starting to make him reconsider...
(4:01:09 PM): At least this one time.
(4:01:15 PM): Meanwhile!
(4:01:16 PM): Ashe!
(4:01:28 PM): Huzzah, you beat another enemy Mega Man!
(4:01:36 PM): Meaning... you can start to hear voices inside of your head!
drascin 4:01 pm
(4:01:43 PM): Time for pain? Time for pain
wyverncakes 4:01 pm
(4:01:54 PM): And not just that!
(4:01:56 PM): Information!
drascin 4:02 pm
(4:02:13 PM): And indeed, Ashe begins writhing in freefall and screaming, curling up in pain
(4:03:36 PM): "The power of Biometal isn't something to be had by just anyone. It's a power which should only be obtained by a Chosen One, one with the ability to change the world. I devised this cipher to lock away the power of the Biometal."
wyverncakes 4:04 pm
(4:04:47 PM): "A cipher that would allow only those I choose to unleash its power. I made sure that Legion's humanitaian efforts, innoculations, blood donations... were all infused with my DNA..."
(4:04:50 PM): "That is the key to the cipher, the proof of being the Chosen One."
drascin 4:05 pm
(4:05:08 PM): Ashe: ...I... have Albert's DNA?
wyverncakes 4:05 pm
(4:05:19 PM): ???: "Not for much longer!"
drascin 4:05 pm
(4:05:29 PM): Model A: Ew. Don't dwell on it too much, Ashe.
wyverncakes 4:05 pm
(4:05:58 PM): Everyone else, one way or another you're safe now aboard the shuttle. Even Xun realized he really didn't have a good plan for getting off the falling island...
(4:06:03 PM): But Ashe!
drascin 4:06 pm
(4:06:14 PM): Ashe: No, honestly, it's less bad than I was expect- what the-!
wyverncakes 4:06 pm
(4:06:17 PM): As you fall, there's a red... damaged machine coming straight at you!
(4:06:21 PM): It's Queenbee!
cubey@aol.pl 4:06 pm
(4:06:42 PM): Izuru: "She's still alive?!"
wyverncakes 4:06 pm
(4:06:50 PM): Her entire big carrier section is gone, her body trashed, but she still has a stinger... and she charges straight at you!
(4:06:58 PM): Energy blasts shooting out at your falling form!
(4:07:04 PM): (Ashe, you've got once chance here!)
drascin 4:07 pm
(4:07:24 PM): Ashe: Crud!
Model A: Ashe! A-Trans!
Ashe: What do- oh right!
wyverncakes 4:07 pm
(4:07:37 PM): ^one
drascin 4:08 pm
(4:08:36 PM): *And Ashe turns on herself and goes "A-TRANS!" - suddenly becoming Aeolus and shooting upwards blades at the ready to meet the stinger!+
tengusaur 4:08 pm
(4:08:42 PM): Roger: "Watch out, Ashe!"
wyverncakes 4:10 pm
(4:10:12 PM): [Ashe] With Aeolus's data comes Aeolus's powers, including aerial superiority over most foes! Queenbee's shots hit only empty air... and in one smooth strike you cleave through the fragile, unarmored component of the Pseudoroid!
(4:10:35 PM): Queenbee's cut in half, her segments joining the island with burning up and falling apart as it returns to Earth...
tengusaur 4:10 pm
(4:10:49 PM): Roger: "That works."
wyverncakes 4:10 pm
(4:10:50 PM): Queenbee: "Why... did you reject... my nectar of despair...?"
(4:10:53 PM): Boom.
cubey@aol.pl 4:11 pm
(4:11:08 PM): Izuru: "What kind of question is that?"
(4:11:11 PM): More importantly!
(4:11:22 PM): Izuru: "What's wrong Raquel? Are you hurt?"
drascin 4:11 pm
(4:11:25 PM): Yeah, Ashe is going to keep upwards a bit before turning and starting pirouetting as she matches the shuttle easily
ginkansk 4:11 pm
(4:11:57 PM): Raquel's still down and her machine isn't moving.
drascin 4:12 pm
(4:12:21 PM): Aeolus: I can fly! This is awesome! ...wait, what happened with Raquel?
tengusaur 4:12 pm
(4:12:22 PM): Roger brings Amazon with him to the shuttle. Nobody gets left behind.
drascin 4:12 pm
(4:12:35 PM): Ashe had been kind of too worried about Prometheus and company to notice much
ginkansk 4:12 pm
(4:12:40 PM): Those who might recall how her machine works might recall to get the amount of control she has over her machine? She's got to deal with feedback from it taking damage. Given she lost an arm could explain what's up.
tengusaur 4:12 pm
(4:12:46 PM): Roger: "I'm not sure. Are there any doctors here?"
VJockey 4:12 pm
(4:12:46 PM): "Something happened when her machine's arm got busted!"
wyverncakes 4:13 pm
(4:13:09 PM): Unfortunately though in spite of Ashe's newly-earned forms... you didn't get the Model W.
(4:13:49 PM): And it wasn't all laughs between Peola's stuff with Xun and Raquel's feedback problem.
(4:13:53 PM): MISSION FAILED
drascin 4:14 pm
(4:14:07 PM): Man, way to break Ashe's happy buzz at the fact that she is legit oh my god flying
(4:14:17 PM): though she also has the weirdest craving for tea now
vertigojockey@gmail.com has left the room. 4:14 pm
drascin 4:14 pm
(4:14:41 PM): Aeolus truly was a twit to the end!
tengusaur has left the room. 4:15 pm
griefgathering has left the room. 4:15 pm

(1:17:40 PM): So then, a Model W was recently detected!
(1:18:30 PM): Finding out about it was actually rather easy too, on account of a number of islands in the Pacific spontaneously just rising up into the sky.
(1:19:00 PM): However, currently you all find yourselves in Star Rose's briefing room, rather than Sakihama or Alhambra's.
VJockey 1:19 pm
(1:19:04 PM): "... Huh... just like home."
drascin 1:20 pm
(1:20:10 PM): Ashe: So, can someone explain why we're up here when there's a Model W going around down there?
wyverncakes 1:20 pm
(1:20:16 PM): Roland Antov: "During our initial attempts to scout the region though... we ran into some... difficulty."
(1:20:32 PM): A number of images flash up on screens of strange gun emplacements.
tengusaur 1:21 pm
(1:21:07 PM): Roger: "It looks like whoever raised those islands isn't very fond of visitors."
wyverncakes 1:21 pm
(1:21:08 PM): (Pulse Cannons: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Pulse_Cannon)
VJockey 1:21 pm
(1:21:11 PM): "...Those... don't look too friendly. Were they always there?"
wyverncakes 1:21 pm
(1:21:16 PM): Roland nods: "Yes, that's the problem."
(1:21:46 PM): "These cannons were not excessively strong, but they had a secondary effect making use of gravity manipulation."
drascin 1:22 pm
(1:22:12 PM): Ashe: ...ow. How high did you say those islands were, again?
wyverncakes 1:22 pm
(1:22:26 PM): "Aircraft struck by them would feel as if the pull of gravity was strong, disrupting their engines and making stable flying at high altitudes impossible."
(1:22:28 PM): "That's why..."
(1:22:33 PM): He swallowed nervously.
(1:23:03 PM): "We've decided that sending a team there by conventional means -a shuttle- would be too risky."
wyverncakes 1:23 pm
(1:23:19 PM): "Instead, we will be striking from above. Orbital insertion."
cubey@aol.pl 1:23 pm
(1:23:29 PM): Izuru: "EEEEEH?!"
drascin 1:23 pm
(1:23:44 PM): Ashe: Wait, we're dropping on their heads from orbit?!
cubey@aol.pl 1:23 pm
(1:23:54 PM): Izuru: "Commander, are all our units even capable of atmospheric reentry?"
drascin 1:24 pm
(1:24:02 PM): Model A: That's horrible!
Ashe: That's AWESOME!
cubey@aol.pl 1:24 pm
(1:24:03 PM): He knows Red Five is. Kinda. But what about others?
VJockey 1:24 pm
(1:24:06 PM): "... Cool!"
wyverncakes 1:24 pm
(1:24:16 PM): Roland nods. "We've never had this need before, but we do have drop-pods on standby."
VJockey 1:24 pm
(1:24:21 PM): [Peola claps her hands excitedly.]
wyverncakes 1:24 pm
(1:24:45 PM): He's breathing a sigh of relief that the idea is going over at least moderately well.
tengusaur 1:24 pm
(1:24:50 PM): Roger: "Quite a flashy way to make an entrance. I am okay with that!"
ginkansk 1:24 pm
(1:24:53 PM): Raquel "This is going to be fun....orbital drop time!"
tengusaur 1:25 pm
(1:25:17 PM): Roger: "I hope you made calculations to make sure none of us will burn in the atmosphere or crash at a wrong place and die."
drascin 1:25 pm
(1:25:26 PM): Model A: You people are CRAZY!
wyverncakes 1:25 pm
(1:25:30 PM): Roland shakes his head.
drascin 1:25 pm
(1:25:34 PM): (sadly nobody can hear his wails)
cubey@aol.pl 1:25 pm
(1:25:49 PM): Izuru: "If there's no other choice... we'll do it!"
(1:25:54 PM): Hey, who let him decide for others?
wyverncakes 1:26 pm
(1:26:03 PM): "Even if conventional shuttles and the like can't go near the base, we have forces on standby to try to rescue anyone who falls."
tengusaur 1:26 pm
(1:26:47 PM): Roger: "That works for me. Let's enter from above for once, Big O."
wyverncakes 1:27 pm
(1:27:36 PM): "The goal of the operation is to locate and dispose of the Model W itself. It appears to be powering the island's defensive measures, so once it is finished off -or even just enough turrets are disposed of- we'll be able to provide safe evacuation."
(1:27:53 PM): "So then... let this operation begin!!!"
VJockey 1:27 pm
(1:27:55 PM): [Peola has an eager grin on her face as she gets into her machine, nodding the whole time.]
drascin 1:28 pm
(1:28:00 PM): Model A: ...if that hunk of metal you have falls I don't think anything is going to be able to catch you...
Ashe: Hush, Model A, be nice, it's not polite to call other people's robots fat
VJockey 1:28 pm
(1:28:11 PM): "Awaken thine spirit! Regalis Filia!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:28 pm
(1:28:11 PM): Izuru: "Let's find that Model W and rescue everyone. Right, Ashe?"
wyverncakes 1:28 pm
(1:28:12 PM): And with that Roland makes a broad, gesture with his hand, almost immediately wondering if he overdid it.
drascin 1:28 pm
(1:28:29 PM): Ashe: Of course! Let¡s go!
(1:28:57 PM): And aShe zooms off, megamerging mid-run with a shit-eating grin
tengusaur 1:29 pm
(1:29:03 PM): Roger: "I agree with Ashe. Besides, Major Kagura is a woman, I doubt she would appreciate hearing if you called her that!"
wyverncakes 1:29 pm
(1:29:04 PM): At the hangar, the machines unable to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere properly are already getting loaded into drop-pods.
(1:29:24 PM): Those of you who don't need it, your machines are still being prepped for combat.
tengusaur 1:29 pm
(1:29:48 PM): While speaking, Roger climbs up Big O to enter its cockpit.
ginkansk 1:30 pm
(1:30:39 PM): Raquel gets in her machine strips, suits up and locke her self into play and gets ready to drop. "Ready to go here."
VJockey 1:30 pm
(1:30:59 PM): "Ready to go!"
wyverncakes 1:31 pm
(1:31:07 PM): You're all cleared for the drop, map data coming in to show you the general layout of the floating islands. It's a rather moderate landmass to say the least. Even Daitarn 3 would have sufficient stomping ground to work with if it was coming along.
(1:31:26 PM): Also, a very strong energy signature in one section of the islands too... no doubt the location of the Model W.
tengusaur 1:31 pm
(1:31:38 PM): Roger: "Let's enter the scene with panache. Big O, showtime!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:31 pm
(1:31:42 PM): Izuru: "Phew... did Model W's power lift all of this?"
wyverncakes 1:32 pm
(1:32:07 PM): Roland: "'Power' might not be the right word for it..."
(1:32:34 PM): "But records about them indicate their strange effects on regions..."
drascin 1:33 pm
(1:33:07 PM): Ashe: Pretty big effect, this. I've seen a lot of weird artifacts, but they're normally a lot more localized
wyverncakes 1:33 pm
(1:33:16 PM): You're cleared to make the drop, and once you begin your insertion, the Earth will fast be coming up on you!
VJockey 1:33 pm
(1:33:44 PM): [Oh yes, she remembered when she first arrived on Earth... the speed, the intensity...]
(1:33:56 PM): [She also remembered she was screaming the whole way down.]
cubey@aol.pl 1:34 pm
(1:34:01 PM): Izuru: "Alright. Red Five, here I go!"
wyverncakes 1:34 pm
(1:34:08 PM): Before you are nothing but clouds and the blue swath of the ocean... but as you continue down even further... you see it!
cubey@aol.pl 1:34 pm
(1:34:09 PM): He's surprisingly calm about this
tengusaur 1:34 pm
(1:34:12 PM): Roger pulls the switch, activating the drop! And his cockpit starts to shake instantly, making him brace in his chair and clench his teeth.
VJockey 1:34 pm
(1:34:18 PM): "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
wyverncakes 1:34 pm
(1:34:21 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70ljdWKNjb4
(1:35:03 PM): Far higher up than any island had any right to be... there is your target!
drascin 1:35 pm
(1:35:11 PM): Ashe: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Model A: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!
wyverncakes 1:35 pm
(1:35:46 PM): Floating platforms, strong gusts pushiing every which way... and also a lot of outward-facing turrets swinging up to try to open fire on you all!
(1:35:53 PM): (React: everyone)
(1:36:02 PM): Those are those plasma cannons from before!
cubey@aol.pl 1:36 pm
(1:36:33 PM): Izuru: "I won't let you hit!"
wyverncakes 1:36 pm
(1:36:51 PM): At the vey least, it's just damage you have to worry about. There's solid ground underneath you, for the most part.
cubey@aol.pl 1:37 pm
(1:37:48 PM): *Red Five spins to reposition itself - the AHSMB lunges down, adding extra thrust to fly even faster! It will drop fast enough for the cannon blasts to fly harmlessly over it. At least, that's the plan.+
VJockey 1:38 pm
(1:38:03 PM): *Peola is going to use her sizable sword to shield herself!+
ginkansk 1:38 pm
(1:38:30 PM): Raquel is having a hell of lot of fun as she starts to fall to the ground with everyone else. "whee!": Raquel attemps to uyse ki fuekd about her arms to parry the attacks+
drascin 1:38 pm
(1:38:36 PM): *Once the atmosphere reentry is done with,, and the islands are in sight, the door on Ashe's pod slams out as she kicks it off.
Ashe: And here we go!
...and she jumps, falling like an arrow and dodging by veering her downward trajectory! Let the cannons hit the pod!+
tengusaur 1:38 pm
(1:38:57 PM): Roger: "Would you look at that. They're so happy to see us they prepared a gun salute for our welcome!" Suddenly the door in his pod opens, and Big O steps out of it, covering the last distance towards the ground on its own! While falling it shields itself from the attack with its massive forearms... And then lands atop a turret or two! +
(1:39:17 PM): Roger: "Unfortunately, that's not good enough!"
wyverncakes 1:40 pm
(1:40:00 PM): [Izuru] You're fortunate enough to be attacking from a direction these cannons most likely weren't intended to defend against! The plasma cannons were having enough trouble spinning around to be brought to bare against you as it was, and the sudden boost in speed lets you land safe and under their shots!
cubey@aol.pl 1:40 pm
(1:40:26 PM): Izuru: "Alright! Red Five has landed!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:40 pm
(1:40:53 PM): Izuru: "... Suruga would love to be here, I think." His unit looks around, trying to get a feel of its surroundings.
wyverncakes 1:41 pm
(1:41:00 PM): [Ashe and Roger] Meanwhile, your pods soak up the damage from the shots, taking some nasty knocks and seeming to fall even faster as a result... but that's not a problem! And when you spring fourth you both land safely too! Big O even lands with a satisfying crunching noise!
tengusaur 1:41 pm
(1:41:50 PM): Big O raises from the small crater its impact created.
(1:42:05 PM): Roger: "That was a big rough, but I think I could get to enjoy this."
drascin 1:42 pm
(1:42:07 PM): Ashe: WOOOOOOO! She's clearly having the time of her life freefalling at terminal speed with gunfire all around her. And then she somersaults and lands on her feet a second before touching ground)
wyverncakes 1:42 pm
(1:42:18 PM): [Rquel and Peola] Meanwhile, your attempts to defend from the shots go over... relatively okay. The ki barriers ward off the gravity shots just fine, but Peola... as you continue to guard with your blade suddenly it grows heavier and heavier... before it slips from your grasp and falls even faster than you! It lands much harder than one might think... but fortunately you still land okay right afterwards!
(1:42:31 PM): ... If cut off from your blade at least a little.
griefgathering has entered the room. 1:42 pm
drascin 1:42 pm
(1:42:46 PM): Ashe: Remind me to try this again!
VJockey 1:43 pm
(1:43:22 PM): "Tch!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:43 pm
(1:43:33 PM): Izuru: "It must be different than when you're in an AHSMB, I guess..."
VJockey 1:43 pm
(1:43:34 PM): "Damnit... Lost my sword!"
wyverncakes 1:43 pm
(1:43:54 PM): ???: "Well... if you wish, little girl... there's always a far bigger plunge if you take enough steps in any direction..."
cubey@aol.pl 1:44 pm
(1:44:16 PM): Izuru: "An enemy?!"
wyverncakes 1:44 pm
(1:44:23 PM): Off in the distance, you can see the floating, purplish figure of the Model W.
(1:44:35 PM): But there's another figure rising up much closer to you all.
drascin 1:44 pm
(1:44:41 PM): Ashe: ...we could have landed a bit closer, though
wyverncakes 1:45 pm
(1:45:18 PM): It's a Maverick!
wyverncakes 1:45 pm
(1:45:24 PM): (Queenbee: http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070614065208/megaman/images/thumb/b/bc/ZXAKaizemine.jpg/200px-ZXAKaizemine.jpg)
(1:45:57 PM): Queenbee: "So, you've come to extinguish the brilliant flower of the Model W?"
drascin 1:46 pm
(1:46:18 PM): Ashe: Well, yeah. Got any objections to it, lady?
wyverncakes 1:47 pm
(1:47:22 PM): "Many... I've heard from Prometheus about you. Mega Man Model A."
wyverncakes 1:47 pm
(1:47:28 PM): "And the Unity Group as a whole!"
(1:47:56 PM): "Like mindless drones searching for nectar, you came here..."
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:05 PM): "HEY!"
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:15 PM): "But what you'll find is my special nectar... of despair."
drascin 1:48 pm
(1:48:22 PM): Ashe: So you're with Prometheus, then?
cubey@aol.pl 1:48 pm
(1:48:23 PM): Izuru: "Is everything she says bee-related?"
drascin 1:48 pm
(1:48:29 PM): Ashe: Where's that creep hiding?!
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:35 PM): "Probably..."
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:37 PM): At once, Queenbee's massive lower section began to open up... countless smaller bee drones beginning to flood out of her!
cubey@aol.pl 1:48 pm
(1:48:48 PM): Izuru: "Ah, I should have seen that coming!"
VJockey 1:48 pm
(1:48:49 PM): "But if anything... she should be afraid!"
tengusaur 1:48 pm
(1:48:53 PM): Roger: "Enough with the bee puns for now, please. A battle will not be necessary, if you are willing to cooperate. What do you want in exchange for the Model W?"
wyverncakes 1:48 pm
(1:48:57 PM): "Despair, with a hint of bitterness!"
(1:49:19 PM): (Enemies: Queenbee, Plasma Cannons x 7, Bee drones x 40)
wyverncakes 1:49 pm
(1:49:34 PM): (Initiative: Ashe, Peola, Izuru, Raquel, Roger)
(1:49:38 PM): (Ashe, Peola, Izuru)
(1:49:53 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvtKcrj-yAI
drascin 1:49 pm
(1:49:56 PM): Ashe: Sorry, lady, I don't DO despair!
cubey@aol.pl 1:51 pm
(1:51:09 PM): Izuru: "Yeah, it'd be nice if you didn't want to fight."
wyverncakes 1:51 pm
(1:51:54 PM): Queenbee: "The Model W will stay with myself and my master."
ginkansk 1:51 pm
(1:52:00 PM): Raquel "Damn whom ever they are they are really not wanting us here. So ya we come to stomp the model W."
VJockey 1:52 pm
(1:52:13 PM): *Peola's going to make a mad dash for her sword to tear it out of the ground it was most likely embedded in before turning to unleash the sweeping lash of energy at the bee drones!+
tengusaur 1:52 pm
(1:52:16 PM): Roger: "Master. Do you mean Prometheus?"
wyverncakes 1:52 pm
(1:52:23 PM): "The Unity Group would no doubt destroy it, ridding its potential to spread despair and destruction through the world!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:52 pm
(1:52:43 PM): Izuru: "Why do you want to spread despair so much?!"
drascin 1:53 pm
(1:53:12 PM): *And with that Ashe dashes forward, attracting the shots of the plasma cannons... and suddenly as they shoot there's a flash and Vulturon stands there, guitar in the air.
Vulturon: Let me ROCK your world, lady!
...and with that she hits the strings and a powerful showckwave explodes around her, redirecting the plasma shots into the bee swarm!+
wyverncakes 1:53 pm
(1:53:15 PM): Queenbee: "I follow another Mega Man... and if you choose to follow the Model A, then there can be no other choice for us than this!"
cubey@aol.pl 1:53 pm
(1:53:29 PM): *Red Five's arms raise and snap into firing position - the triple barreled chaingun in one hand and the chain rifle in the other, sending a barrage of gunfire both physical and energy at the Queen bee.+
VJockey 1:53 pm
(1:53:39 PM): "Aaaargh... she sounds like a broken record!"
tormterra has entered the room. 1:53 pm
VJockey 1:53 pm
(1:53:46 PM): "Despair this! Bee pun that!'
wyverncakes 1:54 pm
(1:54:12 PM): [Roger] Suddenly Queenbee's ports open up again, missiles firing out in odd directions, but they all seem to zero in on different sections of Big O!
(1:54:14 PM): (React: Roger)
(1:55:35 PM): [Ashe] You move forward, and in defense of their master, the functioning cannons in this region turn to fire on you! But the sudden shockwaves do their job just fine, smashing through the frail bees!
tengusaur 1:56 pm
(1:56:24 PM): * "So that's your response? Very well then!" Roger activates the Arc Line, Big O's eyes flashing and then emitting two bright laser, which he then arcs over the incoming swarm of missiles, trying to shoot down as many as he can before they reach the Megadeus! +
wyverncakes 1:57 pm
(1:57:44 PM): [Izuru] And in the meantime, as Big O comes under fire from Queenbee, you're taking the fight to the Queen herself! The bullets and beams strike her sizable lower section, but the Queen just opts to continue using it as a shield! "Bringing the heat already? I don't mind it being hot!" Lights seem to emenate from Queenbee's body, harmless at first before they suddenly grow bright, flash-burning whatever they strike... and you're caught in their path!
(1:57:47 PM): (React: Izuru)
wyverncakes 1:58 pm
(1:58:37 PM): [Peola] You grab hold of your sword, the energy wave you send forth cutting through several of the bees! But they break ranks and move to try to swarm you, attacking you from behind!
(1:58:39 PM): (React: Peola)
(2:00:06 PM): [Roger] Your eye lasers do an admirable job thinning out the crowd, the warheads detonating prematurely! But they're fast, and for every two you shoot down, a third slips through. Big O's struck by several and knocked around a bit, but you're far from out of the fight!
(2:00:14 PM): (Roger and Raquel can now act)
VJockey 2:00 pm
(2:00:26 PM): *With the incoming attack Peola swings around, blade in one hand, scarf in the other to catch some drones to use as a makeshift flail! And she'll continue to swing and spin to keep the rest of them off of her!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:00 pm
(2:00:31 PM): Izuru: "Woah!" *Red Five jumps back, spinning mid-air and getting out of dodge!+
wyverncakes 2:01 pm
(2:01:39 PM): [Izuru] And a good thing too! The scalding heat from these sudden beams torches the ground where you were, and you can still feel the intensity of these burning shots...
(2:01:56 PM): Queenbee: "Perhaps it's all the better that you've all come..."
drascin 2:02 pm
(2:02:29 PM): Vulturon: Man, these guys can never see which way the tune's going. C'mon, Queenbee, no matter how good your act is, we have you outnumbered and outgunned. You gotta realize you either lay down or face the music.
Model A: uhhhh, Ashe...?
Vulturon: ...darn it, seems that being Vulturon gives me his ear for stupid music puns!
wyverncakes 2:02 pm
(2:02:30 PM): "A island such as this can only become a flower of burnin beauty once..."
tengusaur 2:02 pm
(2:02:38 PM): Roger: "Don't think I'm going to just let you spread despair all over the world." Big O approaches one of the turrets with heavy steps, protecting itself from fire with its shields - and when it's close, it lands several punches on it, trying to weaken its base! &
wyverncakes 2:02 pm
(2:02:42 PM): "And if you were not here to witness it, then who would?"
wyverncakes 2:05 pm
(2:05:26 PM): [Peola] The spinning chopfest you become continues to hack through the drones try to move towards you! Your scarf doesn't manage to really catch any though on account of actually being bigger than them, but it still knocks them around and away from you!
(2:06:23 PM): [Roger] You move right into the turret's metaphorical face, and its anti-air designation is clear to see now as it can't lower itself down to get a shot against you! Big O's fists pummel its frame... but some of the other cannons are instead turning to fire on you instead from their more ideal locations!
(2:06:28 PM): (React/continue: Roger)
ginkansk 2:07 pm
(2:07:01 PM): Raquel isn't going to mess about at this point as she goes after the plasma turrtets intending to get up close and start taking them apart with her fists!+
wyverncakes 2:07 pm
(2:07:15 PM): Queenbee: "Do not think, Mega Man Model A, that I will follow the same fate as Vulturon before me..."
VJockey 2:07 pm
(2:07:25 PM): [Peola stomps on the ground heavily, shaking her head. Admittedly she wished she didn't because everything was rattling and spinning.]
wyverncakes 2:07 pm
(2:07:34 PM): "After all... you're in my garden now... nad my handwork is plain to see!"
VJockey 2:07 pm
(2:07:38 PM): "..O... okay... don't know if I want to do that again..."
wyverncakes 2:08 pm
(2:08:27 PM): Indeed, the fires are spreading everywhere, climbing up trees, burning up large patches of grass in an instant... strangely no animals here though.
(2:09:18 PM): [Raquel] The Amazon is smaller than Big O, and this is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it's even harder for the turrets to open fire on you, but on the other hand you're also much smaller...
drascin 2:09 pm
(2:09:24 PM): Ashe turns back so that she may reply without stupid music puns
wyverncakes 2:09 pm
(2:09:38 PM): ^Smaller and not striking as much of it at once. And more importantly...
(2:10:21 PM): ???: "Queenbee, in your desire to spread your word, you forget who is the master here..."
(2:10:32 PM): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jy04YxVidU
drascin 2:10 pm
(2:10:33 PM): Ashe: I hear that kind of thing a lot. Usually about five minutes before I'm handcuffing the guy. Excuse me is I'm not impressed. (Ashe seems infuriatingly calm and smiling. Queenbee clearly does not intimidate her even a little bit)
(2:10:48 PM): Ashe: Wait, who's that?
wyverncakes 2:11 pm
(2:11:02 PM): [Raquel] And suddenly there's a green figure charging straight at you with blinding speed! No bigger than Ashe herself, and striking with a pair of energy blades!
(2:11:05 PM): (React: Raquel)
tengusaur 2:11 pm
(2:11:07 PM): * Roger: "There. See how powerful your own machines are! Eeey~!" Big O raises one arm, turning around to shield itself from the incoming blasts... While using the other fist to launch a powerful punch at the weakened turret. The strike is powerful enough to send it flying into the sky, towards Queen Bee! +
drascin 2:11 pm
(2:11:14 PM): #Raquel
wyverncakes 2:11 pm
(2:11:17 PM): (Approved)
(2:11:28 PM): (Afterwards you can take your turn. Peol and Izuru can also take their turns)
drascin 2:12 pm
(2:12:33 PM): *And suddenly in the middle of the green thing's trajectory a shadow BAMFs into shape, blocking with two giant shurikens+
(2:12:52 PM): (I kinda want to see what I just blocked before taking my turn)
wyverncakes 2:13 pm
(2:13:05 PM): [Roger] Your arm does a bang-up job keeping you from getting banged up, and your other fist sends what's left of the turret hurtling straight at Queenbee! Unfortunately... more forces are charging into the battlefield! Gigantic bird-like machines which smash through the turret and protect their queen!
(2:13:09 PM): New enemies are arriving!
ginkansk 2:13 pm
(2:13:15 PM): Raquel was not expecint this she attempts to open fire with her head vulcans on the speedy attacker.+
cubey@aol.pl 2:14 pm
(2:14:17 PM): Izuru: "There's even more of them?"
wyverncakes 2:14 pm
(2:14:30 PM): [Raquel and Ashe] The newcomer's charge is stopped by Ashe's intervention, but only briefly! The shurikens crash against energy blades, but the figure just seems to jet around them suddenly, spiraling around the Amazon's vulcan fire, and kicking the Huckebein instead!
wyverncakes 2:14 pm
(2:14:47 PM): It's... another Mega Man!

drascin 2:15 pm
(2:15:40 PM): *Ashe bounces off, turning back into herself as she lets go a barrage of bouncing lasers to entrap the zooming enemy+
VJockey 2:15 pm
(2:15:44 PM): *Peola's going to charge at Queenbee, sword ready to cut! Most people would think jumping her was a bad idea... but when you consider that the attack she was about to pull relied on both speed and weight... well... it played to her needs well. Regalis Filia leaps high into the air before swinging her blade downwards to SMITE AND CLEAVE!!!+
drascin 2:15 pm
(2:15:46 PM): Ashe: Another Mega Man?!
wyverncakes 2:16 pm
(2:16:00 PM): ???: "Correct..."
(2:16:10 PM): "I am Aeolus, Mega Man Model H!"
(2:16:37 PM): "And I knew it was only a matter of time for the Unity Group to intervene here."
drascin 2:16 pm

tengusaur 2:16 pm
(2:16:52 PM): Roger: "I presume you're the one who really is behind this whole situation?"
wyverncakes 2:17 pm
(2:17:24 PM): Aeolus: "I didn't place the Model W here, but I do intend on taking advantage of it, unlike you fools who merely wish to destroy it!"
(2:18:12 PM): (Quick enemy update now: Aeolus, Queenbee, Bees x 19, Turrets x 5 (1 damaged), Orehawks x 3)
cubey@aol.pl 2:18 pm
(2:18:12 PM): Izuru: "Taking advantage? You just want to abuse its power for your own gains!"
tengusaur 2:18 pm
(2:18:27 PM): Roger: "What do you intend to do with it?"
drascin 2:19 pm
(2:19:00 PM): Ashe: You didn't actually answer my question, you know. And don't you know Model W is dangerous?
tengusaur 2:19 pm
(2:19:21 PM): (got anything on Orehawks?)
wyverncakes 2:19 pm
(2:19:29 PM): (One moment)
ginkansk 2:19 pm
(2:19:39 PM): Raquel gets a boot to the head and she somewhat feels it the head's one of the few things which not as an intense feel ba k but there's been left quite the mark there. Damn it they need something smaller to deal with things like this...

wyverncakes 2:20 pm
(2:20:22 PM): [Ashe]Your shots lock onto Aeolus's form, but the green Mega Man rockets forward, weaving through them in a way reminiscent of how Izuru outpaced the cannons from before! "What do you expect? I'll continue fighting in the Game of Destiny, and more importantly eradicate all of you!"
(2:20:35 PM): (Stupid copy-paste)
VJockey 2:20 pm
(2:20:58 PM): "I'd like to see you try!"
wyverncakes 2:21 pm
(2:21:09 PM): [Ashe cont.] Aeolus swings both of his blades forward, a wave of energy coming from them straight at you!
(2:21:14 PM): (React: Ashe)
(2:21:29 PM): Aeolus: "Dangerous?"
(2:21:34 PM): He snorts.
drascin 2:21 pm
(2:21:35 PM): Ashe: Do you actually know what this stupid Game of Destiny is ABOUT?!
(2:21:46 PM): Ashe: If you do, TELL ME!
wyverncakes 2:22 pm
(2:22:22 PM): "Many things in this world are dangerous, Ashe! But what makes the Model W so much different than bombs and ships and machines and countless other things?"
(2:22:26 PM): "All it is... is fear!"
drascin 2:22 pm
(2:22:41 PM): *And those blades are going to meet with an overhead axe - that is, Vulturon's guitar, slashing into them in a forceful parry aiming to continue towards Aeolus's chest+
wyverncakes 2:24 pm
(2:24:19 PM): [Peola] Your blade meanwhile swings down, but Queenbee herself counters with her massive lower section again! Your sword bites down on it, but this armored segment is tougher than it looks... and more importantly her stinger is facing your direction and fires! A burning blast of energy knocks you backwards, and another one is fired to follow-up and finish you off!
(2:25:55 PM): (React: Peola)
tengusaur 2:26 pm
(2:26:40 PM): Roger: "The purpose of my Megadeus is not to spread fear. It is a guardian. And it's certainly not a participant in some kind of mysterious game of destruction!"
drascin 2:26 pm
(2:26:53 PM): Model A: This guy is making no sense... hey, guy, explain!
cubey@aol.pl 2:27 pm
(2:27:20 PM): Izuru: "These guys just won't stop going about how evil they are!"
VJockey 2:27 pm
(2:27:24 PM): *Well crap! Guess she shouldn't have tried to run headlong against the enemy leader! She's doing her best to throw the Regalis Filia to the side AWAY FROM THE INCOMING HEAT RAY OF DEATH!+
(2:27:30 PM): "I know! It's irritating!"
wyverncakes 2:27 pm
(2:27:41 PM): [Ashe] Guitar meets blades, and your physical attact powers through Aeolus's ranged one, managing to knock him back!
(2:27:58 PM): Aeolus: "You talk of evil and destruction...?"
(2:28:12 PM): "People fear what they don't understand or can't control... and they will hate what they fear!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:28 pm
(2:28:28 PM): *Red Five circles back and flies at the Queenbee once again. The chain rifle fires quick scattering rounds at any foe that tries to interrupt the melee assault... before Izuru gets close in range and swings with the chainsword, a wild cut across the robot's body!+
wyverncakes 2:28 pm
(2:28:30 PM): "They hate Mega Men and the Model Ws... that's why you're here, isn't it?"
cubey@aol.pl 2:28 pm
(2:28:43 PM): Izuru: "You're wrong!"
wyverncakes 2:29 pm
(2:29:00 PM): "Scared and trying to fashion yourselves as heroes when you're all just cowards unwilling to see the other side."
drascin 2:29 pm
(2:29:10 PM): Ashe: I'm here because Albert has some insane scheme to destroy the world with these Model Ws!
wyverncakes 2:29 pm
(2:29:41 PM): (Izuru, Roger, Raquel)
tengusaur 2:29 pm
(2:29:43 PM): Roger: "I am a negotiator. If I hated anyone, if I weren't willing to at least see their point of view, then I'd be a pretty poor one!"
wyverncakes 2:30 pm
(2:30:04 PM): Aeolus: "You think there will be nothing left when the winner of the Game of Destiny finally has his way with the world?"
(2:30:15 PM): "I suppose I shouldn't be surprised though..."
(2:30:35 PM): "A money-chasing woman... unable to see the bigger picture.]
ginkansk 2:30 pm
(2:30:50 PM): Raquel now recoving from the hit turns on drones this time she's not going to just shoot at them she flies at them and attemps to do a flying kick into the bee drone's formation!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:31 pm
(2:31:34 PM): Izuru: "Anyone who thinks they can just change the world by winning a game is either evil or delusional!"
wyverncakes 2:31 pm
(2:31:39 PM): [Peola] This second heat beam smashes into the ground near where you are... even more flames erupting from it as it just goes on to form a massive inferno sphere! And when it subsides... there's nothing left! Just a big gaping hole in the ground!
drascin 2:31 pm
(2:31:58 PM): Ashe: Hey! What's wrong with getting paid? And I didn't like that tone in "woman", you little jerkface!
tengusaur 2:32 pm
(2:32:06 PM): Roger: "You are being awfully mysterious, but I understand what you told us so far. If you're not willing to share more information or change your stance, I will have no choice but to stop you!"
tengusaur 2:33 pm
(2:33:15 PM): * Big O raises both of its hands up and then lowers them with wide arcing gestures, connecting its fists together! A huge beam erupts from a corona around its head, flying towards one of the robotic birds and bees that happen to be on the way! +
VJockey 2:33 pm
(2:33:45 PM): "GAH!"
wyverncakes 2:33 pm
(2:33:49 PM): [Izuru] Fortunately you're there to continue the assault on Queenbee even as she's recovering from her attack on Peola! You even get an expression of shock from her, striking her upper body and making her reel back... but one of the Orehawks moves to assist the Maverick, flapping its wings and producing immense tornados... ones joining together with Queenbee's flames for a fiery hurricane headed your way!
(2:33:52 PM): (React: Izuru)
tengusaur 2:35 pm
(2:35:21 PM): Roger: "Allow me to handle the bigger targets. If this guy is as fast as he seems, he can probably fly in circles around Big O's fists. I'll leave him to you, Ashe!"
drascin 2:35 pm
(2:35:54 PM): Ashe: Oh you bet you can leave him to me.
(2:36:11 PM): Ashe hits her fist into her hand
wyverncakes 2:36 pm
(2:36:25 PM): [Big O] Your powerful headcannon sweeps through much of the bees and costs one of the Orehawks a wing! But the creature just roars in fury and charges at Big O, still making use of its superior speed on the ground and unleashing even more tornados to try to knock Big O off of the island!
(2:36:29 PM): (React: Roger)
tengusaur 2:37 pm
(2:37:01 PM): (is it attacking in melee or keeping away?)
wyverncakes 2:37 pm
(2:37:13 PM): (Moderate distance away right now)
wyverncakes 2:37 pm
(2:37:47 PM): (Ashe and Peola can act. Izuru can take his turn after his reaction or combine the two if he'd like)
cubey@aol.pl 2:38 pm
(2:38:09 PM): *Red Five tries to circle around the bee, putting her between the gusts of wind and the AHSMB while still facing the opponent.+
(2:38:15 PM): Izuru: "Uwah..."
drascin 2:38 pm
(2:38:55 PM): Ashe: well, then! I'm going to take you down and then you'll tell me what you know!
VJockey 2:39 pm
(2:39:02 PM): "Anyone have a plan?!"
tengusaur 2:39 pm
(2:39:46 PM): * Roger: "I had enough dropping for now, thank you very much. Moby Dick Anchor!" Two anchors shoot from Big O's waist-level ports, digging into the ground! The black Megadeus braces against the ground itself, raising its arms in defense against the blowing winds. +
wyverncakes 2:39 pm
(2:39:54 PM): [Izuru] Red Five's speed saves it once more. The same can't be said about said about the trees where it once was... but Queenbee is forced to dodge the burning winds too... and her lower segment strains heavily from the sudden evasive maneuver!
cubey@aol.pl 2:40 pm
(2:40:16 PM): Izuru: "Any second now... I got you!"
wyverncakes 2:41 pm
(2:41:04 PM): [Roger] The anchors bite into the ground, holding you steady even in the face of the wind! So much for it being the bane of sturdy, tanky giant robots!
drascin 2:41 pm
(2:41:13 PM): *And with that, Ashe surges forward, shooting in an arc as she locks on and lets go several blue lightning bolts at the flying Mega Man - but as the flash subsides, where is Ashe?
(2:41:15 PM): Answer: Buckfire is straight up and descending with a hell of a meteor kick that would make Captain Falcon proud, hoping to capitalize on the temporary blindness!+
cubey@aol.pl 2:41 pm
(2:41:20 PM): *He tracks where the Queenbee is fleeing... and fires a big beam of energy just where she should be. At a close range like that, escape will be difficult!+
VJockey 2:42 pm
(2:42:51 PM): *Peola grits her teeth and charges up her blade, hopefully this attack does a little more damage than the last time she attempted it on that submarine a while back. No irritating sister to distract her this time! With a step forward and a battlecry she thrusts her sword forward as she launches a piercing lance of ki at Queenbee - between this attack and Izuru's it should make things pretty hard on the despair obsessed Maverick!+
wyverncakes 2:43 pm
(2:43:48 PM): [Izuru and Peola] Indeed it does make things hard! The big beam from Red Five and Peola's ki strike pierce through Queenbee's armored lower section, and- "The missile stores...!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:44 pm
(2:44:06 PM): Izuru: "Eh?"
wyverncakes 2:44 pm
(2:44:52 PM): A chain reaction is triggered inside of the Pseudoroid, more and more of the section exploding violently before finally as Queenbee cries out!
(2:45:05 PM): Aeolus: "Queenbee...!"
(2:45:18 PM): The name is shouted more with annoyance, disappontment, and frustration than a sense of genuine loss.
(2:45:26 PM): But hey... the path to the Model W is clear now!
cubey@aol.pl 2:46 pm
(2:46:42 PM): Izuru: "Sorry, that wasn't much of a plan... but it worked anyway!"
drascin 2:46 pm
(2:46:56 PM): Ashe: Anything that works is a good plan!
wyverncakes 2:47 pm
(2:47:35 PM): (Anyone wanting to head towards the Model W can now. Free action)
(2:47:58 PM): [Ashe] And in the meantime, you continue the assault on Aeolus! The sparking bolts force Mega Man Model H on the defensive, and the sudden flaming Buckfire kick seems to catch him by surprise... but suddenly you're struck from the side by some sort of giant, floating disk-like object! "To think you of all people would force me to bring out my secret weapon... but don't forget where we're fighting, Mega Man Model A!"
(2:48:26 PM): Indeed... there's still those gun turrets from before, and now you're pretty high up and flying along like a plate for them to shoot down!
(2:48:32 PM): Which they immediately act upon!
(2:48:37 PM): (React: Ashe!)
drascin 2:48 pm
(2:48:44 PM): Buckfire: Well, nuts.
cubey@aol.pl 2:48 pm
(2:48:54 PM): Izuru: "Look out, Buckfir... Ashe!"
VJockey 2:50 pm
(2:50:56 PM): *Well with the way clear Peola's going to charge straight in! Better to get this over with sooner rather than later!+
ginkansk 2:51 pm
(2:51:20 PM): Raquel ha had enough of the fodder she's going to make a dive for the Model W this time ther's no physiocal attack as Raquel atar trying to make the air about the Model W Burst into burts of flame. "Can you take the heat?!"+
drascin 2:52 pm
(2:52:21 PM): *So, besieged on all sides, do you know what time is it? It's SHOWTIME! Ashe grabs a passing branch as she flies away, spins and lets the redirected momentum fling her upwards, like a gymnast - and then becomes Vulturon again, hitting the strings with a powerful heavy metal song that sends showckaves outwards, shielding herself!+
tengusaur 2:53 pm
(2:53:09 PM): Roger: "She has good influences."
wyverncakes 2:53 pm
(2:53:16 PM): [Peola and Raquel] You both move towards the Model W, but as you near it you can almost begin to feel the malevolent energy eminating from it. The ground around it is a far cry even from the torched, wasted sections of the jungle... but unfortunately someone else had something else in mind...
(2:53:51 PM): ???: "Sorry, but I can't let you do that!"

(2:54:59 PM): Prometheus!

cubey@aol.pl 2:55 pm
(2:55:43 PM): Izuru: "You again!"
wyverncakes 2:55 pm
(2:55:44 PM): [Ashe] Your quick-thinking energy barrier and recovery lets you ward off the cannon shots! And a good thing too, now with Prometheus showing up too just for kicks.
(2:56:34 PM): Prometheus: "It certainly has been a while, hasn't it?"
(2:56:39 PM): Aeolus: "Prometheus!"
drascin 2:56 pm
(2:56:44 PM): Ashe: What are YOU doing here?! Weren't you Albert's lapdog?
wyverncakes 2:56 pm
(2:56:57 PM): Prometheus: "Lapdog?"
(2:57:00 PM): He snorts.
wyverncakes 2:57 pm
(2:57:13 PM): "I am just safeguarding this Game of Destiny!"
(2:57:25 PM): "I can't have all of you destroying the Model Ws right out from under our noses...!"
(2:57:33 PM): Aeolus: "Prometheus, that was mine-"
(2:57:49 PM): Prometheus: "And if I didn't show up it wouldn't be anyone's, now WOULD IT?!?"
(2:58:08 PM): He raises his scythe up high, swinging down violently straight at Raquel's Amazon!
(2:59:00 PM): The attempted attack on the Model W is obliterated and Prometheus's continues towards Raquel, but...!
(2:59:08 PM): ???: "Mega Men?"
cubey@aol.pl 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): Izuru: "Who gave you the right to decide this?!"
tengusaur 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): Roger: "If you let Aeolus have it, it will not count as safeguarding the game anymore!"
wyverncakes 2:59 pm
(2:59:23 PM): "A Game of Destiny? Fought between champions...?"

tengusaur 3:03 pm
(3:03:27 PM): Roger: "As I figured."
wyverncakes 3:03 pm

(3:12:01 PM): * The giant piston in Big O's arm goes back, gathering extra pressure! And, as soon as the Orehawk is pulled right next to the Megadeus... "Bye bye!" Roger launches a mighty punch at the bird, releasing the power inside the piston for extra explosive power - power that might rip a hole in the robot and/or send it flying towards other airborn enemies! +

(3:16:31 PM): Siarnaq: YOU. DON'T TOUCH. MY FRIENDS
wyverncakes 3:16 pm
(3:16:44 PM): [Peola] Your not-bat swings down, but the smaller man responds by striking back with his own scythe! The two weapons collide, your sword sheathe actually cracking from the damage! And more worrisome... "Queenbee was not the only master of flames here!" Suddenly a blast of fire erupts from the ground between the two of you, before another and another, zeroing in on your position!
cubey@aol.pl 3:17 pm
(3:17:42 PM): "Orrryaaa!" *Red Five continues its charge at Aeolus, but this time the unit lowers to crash into him with its body... or rather, kick him with the leg, and then kick itself OFF him, continuing its flight!+
wyverncakes 3:17 pm
(3:17:47 PM): (React: Peola)
wyverncakes 3:19 pm
(3:19:58 PM): [Roger] Big O's fist nearly impales the damaged Orehawk, pretty thoroughly putting it out of commission! The follow-up ends up smashing it into another of the robot birds, causing it to crash into a burning patch of trees. It screams angrily as the fire burns its paint and begins to melt its body, inflicting plenty of damage on it!
drascin 3:20 pm
(3:20:02 PM): *And without missing a beat she spins again, lands in the same direction she was running, and rushes Prometheus down, a kunai in each hand and goind straight for the face+
(3:20:15 PM): Siarnaq: YOU WILL. TELL ME. ABOUT THE STUPID GAME.
VJockey 3:20 pm
(3:20:34 PM): "!!"
ginkansk 3:20 pm
(3:20:43 PM): (Ignoe that last action my bad man)
(3:21:07 PM): Raquel "Hey fire is my thing bug girl...I think it's time we danced."
VJockey 3:21 pm
(3:21:31 PM): *Peola lets out a distinctively unladylike curse and leap away! Hopefully with enough distance and Xun in the way the fire won't hurt that much!+
wyverncakes 3:21 pm
(3:21:31 PM): (Queenbee's long-gone)
ginkansk 3:22 pm
(3:22:37 PM): (Nukes pose from orbit)
wyverncakes 3:24 pm
(3:24:45 PM): [Izuru and Ashe's support defense] Red 5 is strike by the electrical attack, but thanks to Ashe's intervention the damage is a lot less than what it could've been! Systems in Red 5 are still freaking out though... fortunately it's foot is still strong as ever, enough to hit Aeolus hard in a nice two-fer! It'd be reason for celebration as Aeolus grunts in pain from being kicked by such a larger machine... but... "You think... that's enough to stop me?!?" And an arm blade swings out, an air-rending slash cutting through one of Red 5's legs!
(3:25:08 PM): (Roger and Raquel)
cubey@aol.pl 3:25 pm
(3:25:19 PM): Izuru: "Uwah! This is not good..."
tengusaur 3:25 pm
(3:25:27 PM): (enemy list?)
cubey@aol.pl 3:25 pm
(3:25:28 PM): "Still, nice save! We'll win this one yet, you'll see."
wyverncakes 3:25 pm
(3:25:31 PM): Aeolus: "You have... only youself... to blame for that...!"
(3:25:59 PM): (Enemies: Aeolus (damaged), Prometheus, Turrets x 5, Orehawk x 2 (1 damaged/burning))
cubey@aol.pl 3:27 pm
(3:27:08 PM): Izuru: "Worth it! You're still much more hurt, I suggest you give up!"
VJockey 3:27 pm
(3:27:29 PM): "I don't think he'll give up easy!"
wyverncakes 3:27 pm
(3:27:36 PM): [Ashe and Peola] Meanwhile, Peola springs away from the erupting flames, more and more of the ground getting destroyed from release of energy! However, even though you're plenty in the clear, the Arma Vires still moves in between you and Prometheus's attack! "Fear not, Peola! The days of you fighting your own battles are long over!"
(3:28:09 PM): "You will be free to have a life of luxary and calm... my strength is more than enough to win all our battles! Huuaaaaaaaaaa!"
VJockey 3:28 pm
(3:28:44 PM): "...Its taking every bit of my willpower NOT to drag that hunk of junk off the closest edge of these Islands and just booting him off..."
cubey@aol.pl 3:29 pm
(3:29:23 PM): Izuru: "What's wrong with fighting your own battles?"
wyverncakes 3:29 pm
(3:29:48 PM): [Ashe and Peola cont.] And meanwhile, Ashe finally gets a face-to-face encounter with Prometheus! Daggers clash against his scythe, Prometheus grinning visciously! "Oh, you want answers? You just have to keep it up, Ashe. You're doing a good job so far... but the real obstacle now... just drop the pretention!"
(3:29:54 PM): "You're just another warrior in it, not a hero!"
ginkansk 3:30 pm
(3:30:20 PM): Raquel see that most of the enemy is thinned out and she notices that Aeolus is still going and she makes up her mind to go after him. She'll leave Prometheus for later, why? Because he's fresh and Aeolus is already damaged. SO she cups her machine's hands and yells a she fires two energy drgons form her hand which grow in size and seek out Aelous hopefully to explode if they manage to impact with him.+
tengusaur 3:30 pm
(3:30:39 PM): Roger: "Word of advice - you're not going to win a lady's heart if you're going to spout phrases like that!" While lecturing Xun, he activates another of Big O's weapons. Many ports open in its chest, and a large swarm of missiles fires, covering a big area in explosions - Roger aims for enemy mooks, the birds and the turrets! +
wyverncakes 3:30 pm
(3:30:48 PM): "You're more like us than you care to admit... after all, isn't the loss of some of your friends still a driving factor? Or have you even forgot about then already with your new ones? Material girl, material views, am I right?"
VJockey 3:31 pm
(3:31:30 PM): "Hey! How about you shut your useless mouth!"
wyverncakes 3:31 pm
(3:31:45 PM): Xun: "Indeed!"
drascin 3:32 pm
(3:32:13 PM): Siarnaq: SHUT.
(3:32:19 PM): Ashe: UP!
cubey@aol.pl 3:32 pm
(3:32:46 PM): Izuru: "Ashe isn't like that. You don't know anything!"
drascin 3:33 pm
(3:33:04 PM): Ashe turns back into herself and drives Prometheus's scythe upward before headbutting him straight in the nose with her spiky helmet
VJockey 3:33 pm
(3:33:12 PM): "He's just a jerk who sees what he wants to see and nothing else!"
drascin 3:33 pm
(3:33:17 PM): Ashe: I'm nothing like you!
(3:33:27 PM): Model A: Yeah! You tell him, Ashe!
wyverncakes 3:33 pm
(3:33:30 PM): [Raquel] Your energy dragons zero in on Aeolus, the injured Mega Man grunting in anger as his thrusters flare up! "Thinking I'm beat already? Guess again!"
(3:34:01 PM): [Raquel cont.] The dragons might be heading for him, but Aeolus just charges right back, energy blades burning bright as he chops through them like they were nothing, before zooming in to do the same thing to you!
(3:34:05 PM): (React: Raquel)
cubey@aol.pl 3:34 pm
(3:34:15 PM): # Raquel
wyverncakes 3:34 pm
(3:34:19 PM): (Approved)
(3:34:31 PM): Ashe's surprise retort and headbutt actually does get the better of Prometheus, causing him to reel back for a second...!
(3:34:33 PM): But...!
drascin 3:34 pm
(3:34:38 PM): Ashe: I have no idea what you're fighting for... but I'm not you! And I don't appreciate you using people to fight your stupid "Game"!
cubey@aol.pl 3:34 pm
(3:34:44 PM): Izuru: "You forgot what I said! This is our win!"
wyverncakes 3:35 pm
(3:35:11 PM): Xun: "Well said, ma'dam! You are entirely entitled to desiring only great riches of the world, be they shoes or jewelry of the highest calibur!"
cubey@aol.pl 3:35 pm
(3:35:36 PM): *Red Five lunges with an oustretched fist - like if Izuru was going to FALCON PUNCH Aeolus, but actually it's a defensive interpose as Red Five's hand generators create a force field at full power!+
drascin 3:35 pm
(3:35:38 PM): Ashe: And you shut up!
wyverncakes 3:36 pm
(3:36:05 PM): [Roger] Big O's cannons fire forth, pulverizing the remaining cannons, bees, and Orehawk while all this is going on. But there's still one last one striking out at you! From the flames itself the last of the giant mavericks flies straight at you, like some sort of ghetto Akashic Buster, screaming in rage!
(3:36:08 PM): (React: Roger)
(3:36:21 PM): Xun pays your last comment no mind, Ashe!
(3:36:40 PM): Instead, he just turns his machine's sole weapon, a collection of heavy-duty flak cannons to bear on Prometheus...
(3:36:48 PM): ... Not realizing you're also clearly in the crossfire!
(3:37:07 PM): Xun: "And now, vile monster... know your end at the hands of the Giga Man!"
VJockey 3:37 pm
(3:37:22 PM): "...WAIT! DON'T SHOO-"
wyverncakes 3:37 pm
(3:37:24 PM): He fires, devestating cannons tearing up the ground everywhere!
(3:37:33 PM): ... But oh crap, Ashe you're in danger of getting hit!
VJockey 3:37 pm
(3:37:37 PM): "SUN DAMNIT!!!"
(3:37:40 PM): #Ashe?
wyverncakes 3:37 pm
(3:37:44 PM): (Go for it)
(3:37:56 PM): ... And Prometheus himself just laughs psychotically as he just teleports out of the assault!
VJockey 3:38 pm
(3:38:28 PM): *With no other recourse Peola's going to throw the Regalis Filia in front of the oncoming hailstorm of metal to keep Ashe from getting hit - belting out an innumerable amount of cusses all the while!+
drascin 3:39 pm
(3:39:06 PM): *Well, time to NINJA THE FUCK OUT OF THERE by turning into Siarnaq and bamfing out of the way as fast as she can+
tengusaur 3:39 pm
(3:39:19 PM): * Roger: "Watch where you are firing, Giga Man!" While the bird is flying at him, he activates the Chrome Buster again (with the same gesture as before), firing the bright beam and engulfing the enemy in it! He keeps on channeling its energy until the hawk is incinerated! +
wyverncakes 3:39 pm
(3:39:24 PM): [Peola] You move to Ashe's defense, taking the shots that could've very well struck down your size-SS ally! Xun himself is in complete shock!
(3:39:35 PM): "P-Peola... why would you... defend such a man as tha-"
VJockey 3:40 pm
(3:40:00 PM): "In...case you didn't notice you complete idiot..."
wyverncakes 3:40 pm
(3:40:03 PM): Prometheus: "Well look how short-sighted you were! You didn't even see that girl you were praising just moments before...!"
VJockey 3:40 pm
(3:40:07 PM): "HE GOT OUT OF THE WAY WHEN YOU FIRED!!!"
drascin 3:40 pm
(3:40:36 PM): Siarnaq: GET BACK. HERE. PROMETHEUS.
wyverncakes 3:41 pm
(3:41:25 PM): Prometheus: "I'd rather not. A man that much of a buffoon is a bigger danger to the Model W than any of you!"
(3:41:41 PM): His grin grows even broader.
(3:41:51 PM): "Guess you'll have to keep playing the game to get those answers, Ashe!"
wyverncakes 3:42 pm
(3:42:05 PM): And with that, both he and the Model W are enveloped in energy and teleport away.
drascin 3:42 pm
(3:42:09 PM): Ashe transforms back and just clenches her teeth.
VJockey 3:42 pm
(3:42:13 PM): "...."
drascin 3:42 pm
(3:42:23 PM): Ashe: grrrrrr...
VJockey 3:42 pm
(3:42:25 PM): "Damnit..."
(3:42:38 PM): "Ashe... I'm sorry."
tengusaur 3:42 pm
(3:42:40 PM): Roger: "Tch... There goes the Model W..."
(3:43:01 PM): Roger: "At least it didn't fall into Aeolus' hands."
cubey@aol.pl 3:43 pm
(3:43:08 PM): Izuru: "Ah!"
VJockey 3:43 pm
(3:43:12 PM): "Still just as bad..."
wyverncakes 3:43 pm
(3:43:13 PM): [Roger] The Chrome Buster at the very least pierces through the screaming Orehawk, leaving it in pieces as it falls to the ground at Big O's feet, completely harmless.
(3:43:37 PM): Aeolus: "... No... for you... it's even worse than that!"
ginkansk 3:44 pm
(3:44:48 PM): Raquel stares how trhe hell did he do that. She bring her fist about to grab and /crush/ the Mega man.
(3:44:55 PM): +
wyverncakes 3:45 pm
(3:45:57 PM): [Izuru] Your barrier intervenes in Aeolus's attack on Raquel... but there's a remarkable fury in his strike! The barrier buckles, not being ruptured but still being knocked backwards! And as Raquel tries to grab and crush Aeolus he just falls back, swinging his blades forward again and cutting into and then through the Amazon's limb!
(3:46:04 PM): And then you all begin to feel something.
(3:46:14 PM): A sort of... weightlessness.
drascin 3:46 pm
(3:46:35 PM): Ashe: We're... falling?
wyverncakes 3:46 pm
(3:46:37 PM): Everyone flying/hovering under your own power, the island is getter smaller now.
(3:46:45 PM): Fortunately Big O's anchors are keeping it stuck to the island though!
drascin 3:46 pm
(3:46:48 PM): (Ashe being a megaman character she has a lot of experience with falling)
wyverncakes 3:46 pm
(3:46:59 PM): Aeolus: "... What do you expect? The Model W was removed!"
cubey@aol.pl 3:47 pm
(3:47:06 PM): Izuru: "Uh oh..."
drascin 3:47 pm
(3:47:18 PM): Ashe: ...oh shoot!
tengusaur 3:47 pm
(3:47:27 PM): Roger: "It stabilized the whole island..."
(3:47:34 PM): Roger: "I suggest we get out of here, fast!"
VJockey 3:47 pm
(3:47:35 PM): "This isn't good!"
wyverncakes 3:47 pm
(3:47:37 PM): "The source of the gravitational distortion is gone now... so...!"
VJockey 3:47 pm
(3:47:53 PM): "Somebody call for a shuttle!"
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:01 PM): With his immense mobility, Aeolus suddenly makes a sudden bumrush towards Ashe!
(3:48:24 PM): But that's not all... with his electric discs coming around again to keep others busy too!
drascin 3:48 pm
(3:48:39 PM): Ashe: Aeolus! You can-! Wait-?!
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:41 PM): Aeolus: "Losing the Model W's unfortunate... but if I can claim the Model A for myself...!"
wyverncakes 3:48 pm
(3:48:58 PM): Izuru! Raquel, one of the electric sorta-bits is spinning straight at you!
(3:49:09 PM): Roger, another's headed towards you instead!
(3:49:11 PM): Peola...!
ginkansk 3:49 pm
(3:49:25 PM): Raquel lets out a scream as the arm's severed and she feels the feed back and her machine just starts falling, there's nothing... comming from her comm. nothing at all.
wyverncakes 3:49 pm
(3:49:34 PM): (You can react, you know)
(3:49:42 PM): Well... save for Peola
(3:50:13 PM): As much as you'd like to help, your machine isn't in good condition... and Xun's Arma Vires suddenly picks up the Regalis Filia!
(3:50:22 PM): Xun: "Forgive me, my love!"
(3:50:41 PM): "But I must make amends for my past mistake! I shall see you to safety no matter what!"
VJockey 3:50 pm
(3:50:55 PM): "WHAT THE HELL-?!"
tengusaur 3:51 pm
(3:51:19 PM): * Roger tries to block that incoming electric attack with Big O's arm-shields. It's too small to intercept in another way, and how exactly do you shoot down lightning? +
wyverncakes 3:51 pm
(3:51:24 PM): (So yes. Roger, Izuru, and Raquel can react to those. Ashe, react to Aeolus himself!)
cubey@aol.pl 3:51 pm
(3:51:37 PM): Izuru: "Guys, something really bad is happening with Raquel!"
(3:52:30 PM): "Ugh... hold!" *Izuru's barrier gets all the power channeled through it - please hold! At the same time, with Red Five's offhand he hopes to grab and hold onto Amazon.+
drascin 3:53 pm
(3:53:29 PM): *Ashe was going to try appealing to Aeolus's basic decency, and then this. First Prometheus, and now this. She's getting angry. And so, as Aeolus's blades descend on ashe, they bite deeply into Buckfire's arms, because he blocks them without caring about the pain and the damage.
Buckfire: "I'm SO!" the arms suddenly open, throwing the blades aside "FED UP!" the arms then close again "WITH YOUR STUPID GAMES!" and the mighty antlers of Buckfire descend straight into Aeolus's head, at roughly eighty kilometers per hour and a thousand degrees celsius!+
VJockey 3:53 pm
(3:53:31 PM): "Damnit you idiot!"
(3:53:37 PM): "What about my friends?!"
tengusaur 3:53 pm
(3:53:51 PM): Roger: "Raquel, can you hear me? We need to leave this place now!" Big O takes a step forward towards Amazon, but for now busy defending!
wyverncakes 3:54 pm
(3:54:21 PM): Xun: "We shall see fit to honor any fallen friends with tales of their bravery, one and all...!"
(3:54:24 PM): "What were their names again?"
VJockey 3:54 pm
(3:54:42 PM): "....................................."
tengusaur 3:54 pm
(3:54:55 PM): Roger: "Don't kill them preemtively just yet, 'Giga Man'."
VJockey 3:55 pm
(3:55:06 PM): [If her machine was still in any state of it, she would be pummeling Xun right now.]
wyverncakes 3:55 pm
(3:55:55 PM): [Roger and Izuru] The electric discs strike against your respective arm defenses... You manage to hold them off but between Big O's size and grounded nature and Red Five having to hold up the Amazon neither of you are in any position to do anything about Aoelus!
(3:55:57 PM): FORTUNATELY
(3:57:31 PM): [Ashe] Being struck by the blades hurt... nothing compared to what gets returned on Aeolus though as his offensive is broken and his face gets a faceful of horn. The enemy Mega Man screams in pain, being knocked backwards and being knocking off of the island and hurtling to the ground even faster than it!
(3:57:46 PM): The discs suddenly lose power and begin falling too!
wyverncakes 3:58 pm
(3:58:15 PM): And finally... the cavalry finally arrives as a shuttle comes hurtling down towards you all!
(3:58:56 PM): Shuttle pilot: "Holy moly... Roger! Everyone else who can't fly! Get aboard, quick!"
(3:59:31 PM): Xun: "I appreciate your offer, kind sir! But I will tend to my beloved's machine privately!"
drascin has left the room. 3:59 pm
drascin has been invited. 3:59 pm
tengusaur 3:59 pm
(3:59:51 PM): Roger: "Give me a moment, something is wrong with Raquel. And..."
VJockey 3:59 pm
(3:59:57 PM): "Ahaha."
tengusaur 3:59 pm
(3:59:57 PM): Roger: "You let go off her."
drascin has been invited. 3:59 pm
drascin has entered the room. 4:00 pm
drascin has left the room. 4:00 pm
VJockey 4:00 pm
(4:00:24 PM): "A little help please."
wyverncakes 4:00 pm
(4:00:28 PM): Xun: "But she is my beloved, and I am her soon-to-be provider!"
(4:00:37 PM): "Should I not repair her machine with my own two hands?"
cubey@aol.pl 4:00 pm
(4:00:38 PM): Izuru: "That's... not really for you to decide..."
tengusaur 4:00 pm
(4:00:40 PM): Roger: "If you truly care about her, you will let her do what she wants."
wyverncakes 4:00 pm
(4:00:50 PM): "Tend to her injuries myself...?"
drascin has entered the room. 4:00 pm
wyverncakes 4:01 pm
(4:01:06 PM): The tough crowd he's facing though, is starting to make him reconsider...
(4:01:09 PM): At least this one time.
(4:01:15 PM): Meanwhile!
(4:01:16 PM): Ashe!
(4:01:28 PM): Huzzah, you beat another enemy Mega Man!
(4:01:36 PM): Meaning... you can start to hear voices inside of your head!
drascin 4:01 pm
(4:01:43 PM): Time for pain? Time for pain
wyverncakes 4:01 pm
(4:01:54 PM): And not just that!
(4:01:56 PM): Information!
drascin 4:02 pm
(4:02:13 PM): And indeed, Ashe begins writhing in freefall and screaming, curling up in pain
(4:03:36 PM): "The power of Biometal isn't something to be had by just anyone. It's a power which should only be obtained by a Chosen One, one with the ability to change the world. I devised this cipher to lock away the power of the Biometal."
wyverncakes 4:04 pm
(4:04:47 PM): "A cipher that would allow only those I choose to unleash its power. I made sure that Legion's humanitaian efforts, innoculations, blood donations... were all infused with my DNA..."
(4:04:50 PM): "That is the key to the cipher, the proof of being the Chosen One."
drascin 4:05 pm
(4:05:08 PM): Ashe: ...I... have Albert's DNA?
wyverncakes 4:05 pm
(4:05:19 PM): ???: "Not for much longer!"
drascin 4:05 pm
(4:05:29 PM): Model A: Ew. Don't dwell on it too much, Ashe.
wyverncakes 4:05 pm
(4:05:58 PM): Everyone else, one way or another you're safe now aboard the shuttle. Even Xun realized he really didn't have a good plan for getting off the falling island...
(4:06:03 PM): But Ashe!
drascin 4:06 pm
(4:06:14 PM): Ashe: No, honestly, it's less bad than I was expect- what the-!
wyverncakes 4:06 pm
(4:06:17 PM): As you fall, there's a red... damaged machine coming straight at you!
(4:06:21 PM): It's Queenbee!
cubey@aol.pl 4:06 pm
(4:06:42 PM): Izuru: "She's still alive?!"
wyverncakes 4:06 pm
(4:06:50 PM): Her entire big carrier section is gone, her body trashed, but she still has a stinger... and she charges straight at you!
(4:06:58 PM): Energy blasts shooting out at your falling form!
(4:07:04 PM): (Ashe, you've got once chance here!)
drascin 4:07 pm
(4:07:24 PM): Ashe: Crud!
Model A: Ashe! A-Trans!
Ashe: What do- oh right!
wyverncakes 4:07 pm
(4:07:37 PM): ^one
drascin 4:08 pm
(4:08:36 PM): *And Ashe turns on herself and goes "A-TRANS!" - suddenly becoming Aeolus and shooting upwards blades at the ready to meet the stinger!+
tengusaur 4:08 pm
(4:08:42 PM): Roger: "Watch out, Ashe!"
wyverncakes 4:10 pm
(4:10:12 PM): [Ashe] With Aeolus's data comes Aeolus's powers, including aerial superiority over most foes! Queenbee's shots hit only empty air... and in one smooth strike you cleave through the fragile, unarmored component of the Pseudoroid!
(4:10:35 PM): Queenbee's cut in half, her segments joining the island with burning up and falling apart as it returns to Earth...
tengusaur 4:10 pm
(4:10:49 PM): Roger: "That works."
wyverncakes 4:10 pm
(4:10:50 PM): Queenbee: "Why... did you reject... my nectar of despair...?"
(4:10:53 PM): Boom.
cubey@aol.pl 4:11 pm
(4:11:08 PM): Izuru: "What kind of question is that?"
(4:11:11 PM): More importantly!
(4:11:22 PM): Izuru: "What's wrong Raquel? Are you hurt?"
drascin 4:11 pm
(4:11:25 PM): Yeah, Ashe is going to keep upwards a bit before turning and starting pirouetting as she matches the shuttle easily
ginkansk 4:11 pm
(4:11:57 PM): Raquel's still down and her machine isn't moving.
drascin 4:12 pm
(4:12:21 PM): Aeolus: I can fly! This is awesome! ...wait, what happened with Raquel?
tengusaur 4:12 pm
(4:12:22 PM): Roger brings Amazon with him to the shuttle. Nobody gets left behind.
drascin 4:12 pm
(4:12:35 PM): Ashe had been kind of too worried about Prometheus and company to notice much
ginkansk 4:12 pm
(4:12:40 PM): Those who might recall how her machine works might recall to get the amount of control she has over her machine? She's got to deal with feedback from it taking damage. Given she lost an arm could explain what's up.
tengusaur 4:12 pm
(4:12:46 PM): Roger: "I'm not sure. Are there any doctors here?"
VJockey 4:12 pm
(4:12:46 PM): "Something happened when her machine's arm got busted!"
wyverncakes 4:13 pm
(4:13:09 PM): Unfortunately though in spite of Ashe's newly-earned forms... you didn't get the Model W.
(4:13:49 PM): And it wasn't all laughs between Peola's stuff with Xun and Raquel's feedback problem.
(4:13:53 PM): MISSION FAILED
drascin 4:14 pm
(4:14:07 PM): Man, way to break Ashe's happy buzz at the fact that she is legit oh my god flying
(4:14:17 PM): though she also has the weirdest craving for tea now
vertigojockey@gmail.com has left the room. 4:14 pm
drascin 4:14 pm
(4:14:41 PM): Aeolus truly was a twit to the end!
tengusaur has left the room. 4:15 pm
griefgathering has left the room. 4:15 pm
