VJockey (03:26:48): The good news. Solaris has nearly completed the Dawnbird and in all likelihood we may be seeing a return to Solsavior.
VJockey (03:27:10): The bad news?
VJockey (03:27:37): "We just got word. The Indalph are assaulting Solaris HQ!"
Meraxa (03:27:49): Ken: ...Sara...!
VJockey (03:27:54): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddyd8WxIOUY
aldo salt (03:29:30): Dido drops a wrench. "…" She pops her knuckles. "…SARAHHHH!!!" She starts running for the ShelLancer.
VJockey (03:30:14): Thankfully Solaris HQ is in Japan, meaning that it would be all but child's play to get to from Sakihama. Shuttle or no.
tengusaur (03:30:52): Roger: "So much for a calm eventless day... Big O! It's showtime!"
VJockey (03:32:00): The relatively isolated location means that no innocents can get in the crossfire. So there was at least one small relief.
aldo salt (03:32:16): Dido slips her headset on in the cockpit, then closes her eyes and exhales. "Ken." She says. "Do you know Mizuki's whereabouts?"
cubey@aol.pl (03:33:21): Izuru: "They're going to need help... the Indalph are attacking! But..."
cubey@aol.pl (03:33:26): But Red Five is under lock...
cubey@aol.pl (03:33:32): Izuru: "There must be something I can do!"
Meraxa (03:33:55): Ken: Not a clue. *Ken runs a quick diagnostic, not wanting to leave anything to chance.* But we could use all thehelp we can get. Even a few spare genoaces...
frifreeman (03:36:23): Walt: "There are some spare genoaces you can ride"
tengusaur (03:36:34): Big O already takes a heavy step in the background of Izuru, Roger inside its cockpit.
tengusaur (03:36:44): Roger: "Is Red Five the only robot you can control?"
VJockey (03:37:00): Whatever the case may be, the shuttle's engines are warming up and taking passengers.
cubey@aol.pl (03:37:29): Izuru is running around the base frantically, before stopped. "Ah, Lt Schmertz! Yes, thank you, I never used an MS before, but I'll try my best!"
cubey@aol.pl (03:39:03): However, as he gets on board the shuttle, he finds another unit already present there.
cubey@aol.pl (03:39:07): Izuru: "..."
aldo salt (03:39:25): Dido leaving the cockpit open, steers ShelLancer into the hanger bay. "She'll be there." She says to Ken. "She has to be…there's no way she'd pass up a chance to take on Sara!"
cubey@aol.pl (03:40:18): Elsewhere, a certain commander looked at the deployment sternly. He could not do anything to stop it, even the parts he was not happy with.
cubey@aol.pl (03:40:26): All he could do is to make a quick order to even the odds...
Meraxa (03:41:12): Ken: Well, maybe... wait. When were the combination parts meant to be transferred?
VJockey (03:42:40): With everybody on board the shuttle's engines roar to life and make a swift journey towards Solaris HQ!
VJockey (03:43:00): City gives way to country
VJockey (03:43:05): country gives way to forest
aldo salt (03:43:13): Dido sucks in her breath at Ken's remark. "Ooh-boy…hey, shuttle pilot! Step on it!"
VJockey (03:43:20): forest gives way to fire and chaos.
Meraxa (03:43:45): Ken: Please don't be too late...
VJockey (03:44:54): You can all see Solaris HQ. The facility itself has taken a heavy beating, and the surrounding forest more or less looks reminescent of the Vietnam War with extra napalm.
cubey@aol.pl (03:45:16): Izuru watches the surroundings with a mixture of surprise and determination. Please make it... make it in time!
VJockey (03:46:21): Shuttle Pilot: "We've arrived! Prepare for battlefield deploy-"
tengusaur (03:46:26): Roger: "They're not pulling any punches." He sounds serious. Partially because he's not used to seeing forests and doesn't approve of them being reduced to such state.
VJockey (03:46:55): There was a sudden crackling shriek over the comms just as the shuttle rocks violently and goes into a nosedive.
VJockey (03:47:30): Sending it right in the middle of HQ in a rough landing...
VJockey (03:47:37): surrounded by the Indalph.
Meraxa (03:48:20): Ken: Ugh... Everyone alright?
cubey@aol.pl (03:48:53): Izuru: "Aaaah!" He stumbles around his cockpit.
tengusaur (03:49:00): Roger: "Tch... Get into hiding, pilot. Thanks for the ride, but it's not safe here!" As soon as the hatch opens, Big O jumps out, landing on the ground heavily.
VJockey (03:49:15): Small problem with that Roger...
VJockey (03:49:43): As soon as you leave the shuttle you'd notice that its Cockpit was shredded apart.
aldo salt (03:50:09): Dido rubs at a cut on her face. "Ugh…could be worse." She slams down on the sensor CPU, and her HUD lights up with countless enemy icons. "…not by much though."
VJockey (03:50:19): "Right on time. Just like I thought you would be."
tengusaur (03:50:21): Roger: "A bit too late for that..."
aldo salt (03:50:48): She opens a channel to Solaris HQ. "Director! This is Dido Sybil! Me and Ken are on the scene! What's the sit?"
VJockey (03:51:15): A robotic dolphin descends from the sky, armor shifting into a form that Ken and Dido would most definitely be familiar with.
VJockey (03:51:18): http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h454/Steamrollerssolveall/SolSavior/EChaos_zps5a96de86.jpg
Meraxa (03:51:27): Ken: There she is...
Meraxa (03:52:27): Ken: Though, I think she's given up any hope of being the Director after the old man...
VJockey (03:52:43): And she isn't the only familar face either
VJockey (03:53:34): Soleraser was present as well.
VJockey (03:53:51): Though the bug-centaur thing with the horiffically bulging eye was new.
VJockey (03:55:08): Enemies: Echaos (Sara Harper), Soleraser (Siphor/Tiam/Azel), Monarch, Praetorians x30
aldo salt (03:55:39): Dido clenches her teeth. "Ken." She says. "Find Dawnbird and its pilot. The rest of us will…" Fight off? Hold off? Counter? "…delay them. If we're gonna win, we need a SolSavior!"
VJockey (03:55:54): (Initiative: Ken, Walt, Izuru, Roger, Dido)
tengusaur (03:56:04): (what are Praetorians?)
VJockey (03:56:07): (Ken, Walt. Go)
VJockey (03:57:02): (Praetorians - Horrific bug/snakelike beasts that either haul themselves across the ground with claws or fly with grafted on jetpacks.)
VJockey (03:57:45): (Monarch - An insectile centaur-like machine armed with a hammer and shotel.)
Meraxa (03:58:43): Ken: You su- *Ken stops, before shaking his head.* Got it! Beast Mode! *The ScarleTiger dives forward into its feline form, lowering its profile as Ken seeks to scour the base. But first, he'll have to break free, and to break free, he'll slash super heated claws at the Praetorians in his way!+
aldo salt (04:01:11): Dido whistles in relief. "…thanks for trusting me, Ken." She starts targeting the incoming Indalph. "Now," She growls, "who's gonna die first?"
VJockey (04:01:16): Ken! You dash through the group of beasts, carving bloody gouges through their bodies... and at fatally for at least three. However you not only get several acid splashes hocked your way, but the Centaur thing is all but galloping to block your path-
VJockey (04:01:30): "I challenge you... to a duel!"
aldo salt (04:01:31): #Ken?
VJockey (04:01:45): -and swings its hammer at your face just as he says it! React!
frifreeman (04:03:22): Walt: "Aha, forest! Best environment for weaker force like my team to face against more powerful enemy. Also best environment to get turned insane by the war and/or having flashback about the time I got turned insane by the war."
frifreeman (04:04:22): Walt: "Team, spread out on the forest. Use the trees for our advantage! Shoot, then move. Shoot then move!"
tengusaur (04:04:25): Roger: "Try not to turn insane right now, alright?"
frifreeman (04:04:57): Walt and his team spread and do as he says. They let loose some shots at the praetorian, then move to obscure themselves in the trees.+
Meraxa (04:05:05): Ken: When I get back. Then I can give you all the time in the world. Drive Mode! *Ken lowers the profile of his machine even further, seeking to slip right through the gap in the centaur's feet! But a brief burst of fire from the nitro might do a bit of damage as he tries to pass! +
VJockey (04:05:16): (approved)
frifreeman (04:05:36): Walt: "I wonder if someone would be interested to make some sort of spin off about my team fighting war in the forests"
frifreeman (04:05:46): Walt: "Naah..."
VJockey (04:06:31): Walt! Your team manages to gun down another set of Praetorians... however a number of them are slithering into the forest, using it to their advantage as well...
VJockey (04:06:42): -HIDDEN MOVEMENT-
VJockey (04:07:39): You catch some movement in the trees. and possibly behind you. React!
aldo salt (04:07:54): •"Yo, Indalph!" Dido launches a volley of Arc Thorns that rain down from the sky at the Centaur mech, then charges at him with a Shell-Boost, lance leveled. "I challenge YOU to a duel!"+
cubey@aol.pl (04:07:57): # Walt
VJockey (04:08:11): approved
frifreeman (04:08:23): Walt: "Reaction Shot!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:08:28): Izuru: "I'm sorry Lt Schmertz but I won't get to pilot a Genoace today..."
frifreeman (04:08:34): Walt shoots blindly at the movement+
cubey@aol.pl (04:08:55): A large unit steps out of the shot down shuttle.
cubey@aol.pl (04:09:51): Izuru: "I won't let anyone else die today. Go, Grungust! The super robot that was made to defend humanity! EYE SOLID LASER!"
VJockey (04:10:18): Dido! Your storm of arc thorns make for a shocking realization for the Monarch as it backs off, its hammer narrowly missing Ken! Still... that eye fixates on you with irritation.
VJockey (04:10:31): "Very well! I accept your challenge. Choose your weapon!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:10:32): *The Grungust Alpha stands in front of the Genoaces, its arms guarding while its eyes shoot out a beam, cutting down the trees in the way - and possibly enemies that hide behind them!+
cubey@aol.pl (04:10:37): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TLW9-UmYik
VJockey (04:13:45): Ken! However while you make your escape... you find a barrage of missiles launched at you by Echaos... and not only that... but SolEraser moves in before quickly seperating in order to try to cut off your escape! Weaponsfire and corrosive blasts are scattered around... but the lack of coordination between them has some of the barrage intercept each other... maybe... will you try to force your way through? React again.
aldo salt (04:15:07): *"Is this guy serious…?" Dido mutters. "If we're going to do this duel thing, then let's mix things up!" She says to the Monarch's pilot. "You choose a weapon for me to wield, and then I will choose the weapon you use! Let our adaptability decide the victor!"
VJockey (04:15:10): Walt & Izuru. Were this a more unfair world Walt, you might have shot one of your wingmen by accident. Thankfully you still have IFF and manage to nail a praetorian with the wild and repeated shots. Izuru's twin eye beams of JUSTICE also nail one that was attempting to flank you and kill you from behind!
VJockey (04:15:45): (Izuru, Roger, Dido)
Meraxa (04:16:33): Ken: You won't stop me! *Ken's words are more a prayer than certainty, swerving towards the nearest of the separated Eraser machines. So long as he can duck past them, maybe he can have them absorb some friendly fire!+
cubey@aol.pl (04:16:51): Izuru: "We need to get to the HQ, and fast!"
VJockey (04:16:54): Monarch Pilot: "Very well!... I! Vantho, the Swarm's Harbringer choose your weapon to be..."
VJockey (04:17:16): "This Building!"
VJockey (04:17:43): Vantho promptly hammers a section of one of Solaris' buildings at you Dido!
cubey@aol.pl (04:17:47): *Grungust runs with heavy steps, sluggish at first but gathering momentum like an unstoppable train. It heads towards the main buildings of Solaris, the hangars hopefully. On the way, it throws its arm back...+
VJockey (04:17:52): (Feel free to combine your react with your action)
cubey@aol.pl (04:17:52): (Not + yet)
cubey@aol.pl (04:18:35): Izuru: "This is Mizuki's friend... no, used to be!"
tengusaur (04:19:24): Roger: "That kid is quite spirited. Let's not fall behind. Time to thin out their numbers a bit!" The massive Megadeus moves forward, fully intending to break through any enemies blocking the way. Any Praetorian that's close enough will receive a few powerful punches, intended to smash them apart or throw them towards other Indalph minions! +
cubey@aol.pl (04:19:33): Izuru: "Stop attacking people who can't fight back! Boosted Knuckle!" *The back of Grungust's hand suddenly bursts into flames that propel it forwards, a rocket punch aimed at eChaos!+
aldo salt (04:23:29): *"Whoah!" Dido raises ShelLancer's lance, gripping it with both hands as it crackles with electricity…and then Shell-Boosts towards the falling chunk of building and swings her lance at it like a baseball bat! "…Not bad, Vantho! Just like a day at the park!" She tries to hit the building chunk right back towards the Monarch softball style!+
aldo salt (04:24:49): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Wijcnwzxuk
VJockey (04:25:39): Izuru! Sara isn't going to sit still and let you hit her, the machine switches to its dolphin mode and dives into the ground, phasing through it while making that clicking noise of the damned as your punch wings a building. It suddenly breaches from the ground in front of the Grungust, swirling in the air like a demented acrobat and brings its whirling drill down at you! React!
VJockey (04:26:33): "If you have problems with it then prove you're strong enough to stop me!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:27:11): Izuru: "I do, and I will! Because..."
cubey@aol.pl (04:28:01): *Grungust guards again, its arms raised in a cross-block, erecting a thick barrier for eChaos to try to drill through. And at the same time...
VJockey (04:28:28): Roger! The Megadeus punches left and right, sending the snakebeasts flying with crushed faces or torsos... but a few manage to dig their claws into Big-O's arms and split open with a horrific tearing noise. Raw flesh rending asunder to reveal a collection of volatile pods that were about to be launched point blank! React!+
cubey@aol.pl (04:28:51): "I will be the hero!" *The rocket punch returns, striking at eChaos from behind! Whether Sara is hit or dodges, Izuru uses this opportunity - both of Grungust's arms slam down on eChaos together, even if only one of them has an actual hand!+
tengusaur (04:30:00): Roger: "Missiles? Let's see who's faster on the draw! Cannon Party, fire!" Slots open in Big O's chest, and heavy guns fire from them towards the pods, trying to blow them up before they launch! +
VJockey (04:31:34): Dido! Vantho simply spins the shotel once before slashing at the returned attack. Stampeding towards ShelLancer and... hooking one of his Praetorians onto the blade, incidentally splitting it open to reveal the same mess Roger had to deal with before serving THAT up to you and from the looks of things the monster's about to go off!! Incoming action bomb! REACT!
VJockey (04:33:08): Roger. The answe is you. You were faster on the draw. The explosions send bits of monster all over the place and Big O is barely even scratched aside from the limply dangling claws that soon just fall off with nothing left to exert pressure onto the megadeus' armor.
VJockey (04:34:03): Izuru! You manage to land a strike on Sara! That's the good news, even if the drill manages to land nothing but a small scratch she has to divert...
VJockey (04:34:25): the bad news is that right after that scratch, eChaos let out a horrific shriek before it backed off!
VJockey (04:34:42): "Heh..."
aldo salt (04:35:11): *Dido whistles under her breath. "Oh, you saucy bastard…Shell Flak!" As she tries to retreat backwards with a rear Shell-Boost, She fires are her forward armor flak tubes, trying to detonate the action bomb early before impact!+
cubey@aol.pl (04:35:29): Izuru: "It actually worked! Grungust Alpha isn't just for show!"
VJockey (04:35:30): (Ken, Walt)
cubey@aol.pl (04:35:49): He doesn't register the shriek as bad news, possibly making a mistake.
aldo salt (04:36:05): "Nice going, Izuru!" Dido shouts. "Don't give them an inch! Show them that heroes exist!"
aldo salt (04:36:22): She blinks. "Wait…dodge, Izuru! Dodge now!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:36:34): Izuru: "Eh?"
VJockey (04:38:12): Ken! You managed to dodge through the firestorm! Safe... relatively...
frifreeman (04:38:23): Walt: "Okay, everyone dig holes, and set up some sticks covered with your own poop in it. Damnit, not enough time. And I guess poop won't be too useful against them."
frifreeman (04:39:53): Walt: "Stabbing stick can still work though!"
frifreeman (04:40:07): Walt:"Sneak attack!"
Meraxa (04:40:28): Ken: Come on... Where are you? *As Ken continues his search, he casts out his senses. Trying to discern the energies of those within, whether in the form of ki, or as the black hole that void energy felt like+
frifreeman (04:42:43): Walt jump and stab a flatfooted pratorian from behind with his heat stick. "Come on everyone, fish them into the woods so our bigger bots can deal with their bigger bots! Oh, and kill them at your own discretion too, of course. Try not to fall into the darkness in your own heart while you do that.+
VJockey (04:45:56): Ken! Unfortunately there's just too much interference from the battlefield to get an accurate read. You know Mizuki is present but you can't feel where. Additionally you have Tiel's DraCannon charging you while firing indiscriminately... Friendly fire isn't as a few Praetorians find out... but you're still in the killzone! React!
VJockey (04:46:08): *Tiam
Meraxa (04:50:47): Ken: Ngh, just won't leave me alone. Beast Mode... *Ken shifts in sudden succession again, claws burning against the already scorched woodland. He tries to stir up smoke to cover his tracks... and his attempt to jump a struck praetorian, and kick it with all four feet towards the artillery lizard!+
VJockey (04:50:55): Vantho's eye glares at Dido, the Monarch tensing heavily... then it breaks into a run! Dashing towards a storage area!
VJockey (04:51:51): "Siphor! With me! We shall bring honor to the Indalph... by destroying their Sol weapon while its helpless!"
VJockey (04:52:20): Siphor: "...Of course."
tengusaur (04:52:31): Roger: "I didn't think there'd be much honor in destroying a helpless weapon."
tengusaur (04:52:40): Roger: "We mustn't let them reach it!"
Meraxa (04:53:54): Ken: They hadn't already?! Then that might mean...
VJockey (04:54:38): (Also, because I probably missed it. Dido managed to stop the praetorian bomb)
VJockey (04:55:20): (Roger, Dido, Izuru)
aldo salt (04:55:45): "Oh no you don't!" Dido says, pursuing with ShelLancer. "Come back here and pretend to fight me for honorable glory!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:56:07): Izuru: "We gotta stop them!"
cubey@aol.pl (04:56:43): *The Grungust braces itself! Mysterious shrieks or not, Izuru has no choice. The super robot starts to generate energy, its chest glowing...
tengusaur (04:57:22): (enemy list?)
VJockey (04:58:37): (Enemy List: eChaos, Monarch, DreadVenom, DraCannon, Slayhare, Praetorians x4)
cubey@aol.pl (04:59:02): Izuru: "You guys... stay AWAAAAY!" *The chestplate opens, revealing glowing panels that quickly unleash a burning beam. Sizzling through the air, it covers the air between the Grungust and the hangar with a wide, destructive ray. eChaos, Monarch, all component machines - if they don't get out of the way, the Alpha Blaster will hit them hard!+
cubey@aol.pl (04:59:31): (Aiming the beam upwards so the hangar itself does not get hit, Izuru is not THAT derp)
tengusaur (05:00:27): Roger: "Hold it right there." Big O fires a Moby Dick Anchor, trying to attach it to Siphor's machine and stop his advance. Dido will take care of Vantho, hopefully. &
VJockey (05:02:09): Izuru! The remaining Praetrorians are fried but before the attack can reach the rest eChaos swings around and lets loose another screech and... panels on the Grungust are sparking after a while as the beam begins to short out and die, barely damaging Sara, Tiam and Azel. Screens start spewing out warnings about internal damage. Oh, and your ears are probably ringing too...
cubey@aol.pl (05:03:14): Izuru: "Aaaah! Not good, the Blaster's damaged!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:03:24): "So that's why Dido warned me... sorry..."
cubey@aol.pl (05:03:39): Despite the damage he sounds more apologetic than distressed, somehow.
VJockey (05:03:52): Roger! Siphor swings his machine so that its tail strikes the moby dick anchor in an attempt to deflect it. Resilient as it was, it still left a dent! (Continue)
aldo salt (05:05:11): "Izuru!" Dido shouts. She zooms in on the Grungust's smoking chest mind racing. "…ain't your fault, Izuru." Dido says. "She's just good at hitting people under the belt!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:05:51): Izuru: "Don't mind me! Please worry about DawnBird!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:06:04): The Grungust is not out of tricks yet...
tengusaur (05:07:02): Roger: "I see you're good at blocking. However...!" Big O grabs the chain of the anchor with its hands, and then swings it around, trying to slam into the side of Roger's opponent and knock him off his course! +
aldo salt (05:08:11): *Dido plays things simple, firing a volley of Arc Thorns at Siphor and the Monarch's back!+
VJockey (05:10:26): The DreadVenom is indeed knocked off course! Siphor does his best to manuever after the strike but all he seems to be able to do is crash into the Monarch and give Dido more surface area to work with for the spread of her Arc Thorns!
VJockey (05:11:58): Still... this would not go unpunished. Despite the shocking attack, Vantho has just enough time to send a barrage of rather painful looking quills coated in... something at the Shellancer! React!
VJockey (05:12:24): Walt! You really stick it to the Praetorian! As do your teammates as they manage to counter-stealth attack the beasts.... but you will be forever changed by the experience...
or... you know. Stay the same.
cubey@aol.pl (05:15:26): # Dido
aldo salt (05:15:54): •"Whoah!" Dido tries to dodge behind a nearby silo…and then gets an idea as she stares at the silo. Tapping at her console, she send a ping out from ShelLancer's comm system, trying to coax a response from local Solaris CPU-equipped items!+
VJockey (05:17:52): approved
cubey@aol.pl (05:17:55): Izuru: "Again! The fist of justice, Boost Knuckle!" *The fiery punch is fired again, its course swerving up after it nears the quill barrage, the trail hopefully catching and burning them up - not to mention, the fist itself.+
cubey@aol.pl (05:18:12): Izuru: "This'd be much easier if I could activate the psychic barrier somehow..."
VJockey (05:20:48): Dido! You don't have to worry about the quills because Izuru has that covered! And the response you get is a good one, because the signals are all but lighting up the silo.
VJockey (05:22:02): But before anything can be done the Monarch is shoving DreadVenom away from it and tearing open the storage hangar. Techs who have not yet evacuated are fleeing in a panic.
aldo salt (05:22:05): Dido grins. "Nice…thanks for the assist, Izuru!" She moves ShelLancer out of cover and advances towards the Indalph again. "Let's make this good."
cubey@aol.pl (05:22:28): Izuru: "Let's... hurry! We're almost too late!"
VJockey (05:22:31): Vantho: "...Hmmm?"
cubey@aol.pl (05:22:41): Just a few seconds more... the bad guys are almost at the new unit!
VJockey (05:22:49): Except there was a single tech still present.
tengusaur (05:23:01): Roger: "Almost is not too late yet!"
VJockey (05:23:14): "What is this? An ant attempting to be defiant in the face of the sun? Ohohoho... "
VJockey (05:23:25): Vantho laughs at the clever irony of his own joke.
VJockey (05:23:37): "Well. I suppose if you are an ant. I will smash you like one."
aldo salt (05:23:46): Then she curses. "Vantho! Face me, you hypocritical ass!"
VJockey (05:23:59): He drops his shotel in favor of dropping his fist on the tech.
Wyverncakes (05:24:17): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyn4eedU_Ac
aldo salt (05:24:26): "STOPPPP!" Dido cries!
Wyverncakes (05:24:46): The tech's just looking down at the gound, face obscured by a baseball cap.
Wyverncakes (05:24:48): But...
Wyverncakes (05:25:21): "... An ant, you say I am? Then you best watch out."
Wyverncakes (05:25:58): "Ants dig deep holes, holes where no light can reach."
Wyverncakes (05:26:15): And suddenly something seems to... stir from the mechanic's shadow.
Meraxa (05:26:37): Ken: ...There she is.
Wyverncakes (05:27:39): And then suddenly the Monarch's fist is countered by two more, rising up from that shadow, the figure's garb transforming into regal black and gold... and a bright yellow eye shining from the depths of her shadow!
Wyverncakes (05:29:08): "'Swarm's Harbringer', you've overstepped your boundaries here too many times to counter... and in the name of the darkness, die! ABYSS SANCTION!"
VJockey (05:29:54): "!!!"
aldo salt (05:30:08): "….Whooh!" Dido shouts. "You go Mizuki!"
VJockey (05:30:35): Vantho is blasted backwards by the Abyss Sanction, losing the very arm it attempted to crush Mizuki with!
tengusaur (05:30:35): Roger: "A mistake. You didn't consider *why* a mechanic would choose not to run from you!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:31:39): Izuru: "Mizuki!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:31:49): Izuru: "So that's where she was!"
VJockey (05:33:10): Vantho: "This... what is this...treachery?!"
VJockey (05:33:26): "Harper! What is this?! You said their guard would be down!"
Wyverncakes (05:34:17): Mizuki: "... That's what you get for banking on her intel."
Wyverncakes (05:35:21): "Sara would know us and SolSavior... and with how it'd been performing its technical problems too. But we'd know her too!"
VJockey (05:41:03): Sara: "So you made a clever and underhanded plan Mizuki, I guess I made the mistake of thinking you wouldn't bother with things like that.. But if you think that's going to be enough-"
VJockey (05:41:30): Siphor: "... There's the plans of others to consider as well."
cubey@aol.pl (05:41:34): Izuru: "Don't think that just because we're the good guys, we're stupid!"
Wyverncakes (05:41:41): Mizuki: "!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:41:41): Izuru: "... Eh?"
aldo salt (05:41:54): Dido: "…oh wow!"
VJockey (05:42:07): DreadVenom, DraCannon and SlayHare move to attack!
VJockey (05:42:10): But
VJockey (05:42:19): it wasn't the Unity Group that were their targets.
Wyverncakes (05:42:20): She's already steeling herself for fighting Siphor and the DreadVenom, bringing the rest of the DuskBird up so she can get inside of it.
Meraxa (05:42:56): Ken: ...No way.
VJockey (05:43:38): Siphor unleashed a corrisive burst at the Monarch, quickly lashing out with the DreadVenom's tail to knock it off balance when it tried to ward off the first attack!
Wyverncakes (05:43:56): Mizuki: "!"
VJockey (05:45:12): Tiam unleashes a massive blast of wind from the turbine on her machine's body, letting loose with a barrage from the cannons scattered across DraCannon's frame - sending them into a whirling tornado of death that was accompanied by the high pressure water cutter slashing from a different angle at... the eChaos!
VJockey (05:45:32): Both assaults deal heavy damage to their targets!
tengusaur (05:46:49): Roger: "Well, that was unexpected... But not unwelcome."
VJockey (05:46:57): Siphor: "Regret. That's what I carried with me the whole journey I've had to make alongside the Indalph. If I wasn't set in my ways perhaps we could have resisted. So when we heard of Saturnia's death we planned."
VJockey (05:47:40): Tiam: "You've got no fucking idea how much I've been waiting for a chance to feed you bastards your own teeth after the years of hell you put me through!"
Wyverncakes (05:47:52): Mizuki: "... Ha... haha..."
Wyverncakes (05:47:55): This is...
Wyverncakes (05:48:06): She's pretty sure she knows where this is going.
VJockey (05:48:12): Azel: "My mission had never changed. Defeat the Indalph by any means necessary."
Meraxa (05:48:37): Ken: I... I'm at a loss for words.
Wyverncakes (05:48:41): "... Well how about that, Sara."
cubey@aol.pl (05:48:44): Izuru: "You... were good all along?!"
aldo salt (05:48:47): "…Fudge-skittles." Dido muses. "You guys had to play it close to your chests, huh?"
cubey@aol.pl (05:48:50): His face beams in surprise.
aldo salt (05:48:55): "Sorry for the bad smack-talk."
Wyverncakes (05:49:03): "The conquered wanting to get revenge and bring down their conquerors."
VJockey (05:49:16): Siphor: "We've been biding our time, waiting for the moment to strike!"
tengusaur (05:49:24): Roger: "Looks like they managed to fool everyone all along."
VJockey (05:49:58): Vantho's eye bugs out at this....
VJockey (05:50:01): But Sara...
aldo salt (05:50:04): @Eraser team?
VJockey (05:50:20): (Denied. They're about to have some problems very soon)
VJockey (05:50:38): Sara was actually laughing at this.
VJockey (05:51:00): Going so far as to applaud the SolEraser team for their downright theatric treachery
VJockey (05:51:51): "Oh... this is so very amusing. We are defined by our enemies after all. Why wouldn't the defeated heroes swallow their pride and hope for the day they can rise up again in rebellion?"
VJockey (05:52:08): "But I'm afraid that this tale's going to have something of a twist."
VJockey (05:53:42): Sara tears off her eyepatch, revealing the horrific and writhing tentacle creature living within the hollow where her eye once resided. It lashes out, against logic and reason - before managing to punch right into DraCannon and SlayHare!
VJockey (05:53:57): Azel: "What-?!"
Wyverncakes (05:54:16): Mizuki: "No! Get away!"
VJockey (05:54:22): Tiam: "The fuc- Get away fro-AGGH!"
aldo salt (05:54:27): Dido snarls. "SARA…!!!"
Meraxa (05:54:37): Ken: ...You...
VJockey (05:54:41): It wasn't just them.
cubey@aol.pl (05:54:45): Izuru: "What are you doing?!"
VJockey (05:54:59): Remember that Eye on Vantho's machine?
aldo salt (05:55:21): "I'm gonna freaking kill you, Sara!!!" Dido froths.
VJockey (05:55:52): It disentangles itself from the Monarch - the machine actually letting out an agonized groan before collapsing into a boneless pile of biomechanical mess.. and launches itself at the Dreadvenom!
VJockey (05:56:04): Siphor: "No! Not when we were so close-"
cubey@aol.pl (05:56:16): Izuru: "I won't let you!"
cubey@aol.pl (05:56:18): #
VJockey (05:56:25): (Approved)
VJockey (05:57:08): Sara: "Pets should stay on their leashes. I just made sure they won't slip theirs again. A little gift from Vantho."
cubey@aol.pl (05:57:13): There is no time for super robot incantations. Just...
Wyverncakes (05:57:29): # Siphor as well?
VJockey (05:57:33): (approved)
aldo salt (05:57:40): #To do that thing?
cubey@aol.pl (05:58:36): Izuru: "Save them!" *Grungust Alpha launches both of its hands. The fists try to slam into the eye, or at least push it as far away as possible!
cubey@aol.pl (05:58:38): +
Wyverncakes (05:58:48): * The DuskBird's whip suddenly swings out, hoping to catch Vantho's eye-parasite thing in time and save Siphor!+
Wyverncakes (05:59:12): Mizuki: "You're not... going to get your way!"
VJockey (06:02:23): Vantho's True form is a slippery creature indeed. However with two fists and a whip of void energy lashing out at it - the Indalph General is torn to shreds before exploding into flames in a spectacular mess, sending bits and pieces everywhere. DreadVenom shies away for a moment but at the realization that its safe lets down its guard.
VJockey (06:02:38): Except...
VJockey (06:03:18): Anyone looking close enough at the DreadVenom could see the fragments on its body begin to squirm disgustingly like maggots and dig their way into its armor!
Meraxa (06:03:49): Ken: ...Get out!
VJockey (06:04:11): Siphor: "!! I can't! DreadVenom's systems are refusing to respond-"
aldo salt (06:04:27): Dido: "Dammit!" She curses.
VJockey (06:04:33): There's a crack in the machine's head as a sickly eye forces its way through.
Wyverncakes (06:04:52): Mizuki: "Vantho... stop hiding behind hostages!"
VJockey (06:04:53): Vantho: "Mm...Yes. Much more room in here. Less conciousness to erase as well."
Wyverncakes (06:05:00): !
cubey@aol.pl (06:05:04): Izuru: "I won't let you!"
VJockey (06:05:22): "Now then... what was it that these three could do again?"
VJockey (06:05:31): "Ah... now I remember."
VJockey (06:06:26): The three parasite controlled machines rush towards each other, metal shifting, joints locking together and gears turning.
VJockey (06:06:37): "Form. SolEraser"
VJockey (06:06:47): Vantho's voice chuckled in dark amusement.
VJockey (06:07:25): (Enemies: SolEraser (Vantho), eChaos (Sara) (Heavily Damaged)
Wyverncakes (06:07:38): Mizuki: "... Ken, Dido..."
cubey@aol.pl (06:07:43): Izuru: "We need to save them somehow..."
Wyverncakes (06:07:46): "Do you trust me?"
cubey@aol.pl (06:07:48): Izuru: "... We can save them, right?"
VJockey (06:07:49): (New Initiative: Mizuki, Ken, Walt, Izuru, Roger, Dido)
VJockey (06:07:59): (Mizuki, Ken, Walt.)
aldo salt (06:08:43): "…I do." Dido says quietly, on a private channel. "We'll follow your lead, Mizuki."
Meraxa (06:08:55): Ken: As if the question needed asking.
tengusaur (06:08:56): Roger: "I'm pretty sure we can. It's going to be tricky, but this is not the first time we did something like this."
Wyverncakes (06:09:18): "Then here we go."
Wyverncakes (06:09:32): "Round three, SolEraser...!"
tengusaur (06:09:37): Roger: "This will, however, require beating up Sara and Vantho to a pulp. But I doubt anyone here will object to that!"
Wyverncakes (06:10:55): * The DuskBird's now mismatched eyes flickered with energy before they took aim at SolEraser's ankles! "We need to buy some time... not much, but a still a little!"+
cubey@aol.pl (06:12:46): Izuru: "I'll make sure Sara won't interfere!"
Meraxa (06:12:57): Ken: On it! Stand Up! *Back to humanoid form, Ken draws the ScarleTiger's whip, setting about trying to ensnare and restrain the great enemy mecha in its fiery embrace!+
aldo salt (06:13:27): "Roger that, Mizuki…and Roger too, I suppose!" Dido shouts. She starts inputing commands to her Arc Thorns, modifying their targeting to avoid cockpit areas!
frifreeman (06:13:34): Walt: "Hmm, any idea how to free them?"
cubey@aol.pl (06:13:54): Izuru: "Beat up their unit, but don't hit the cockpit! ... I think."
cubey@aol.pl (06:14:05): That's how it usually went in his comic books...
tengusaur (06:15:28): Roger: "...You'll never get tired of that one, will you."
VJockey (06:17:33): Mizuki & Ken! Your attacks stumble SolEraser a bit. The Eye that was now bulging through the side of the machine's head simply glared. "Now what is this. Two against one? Now that isn't very fair is it?". Vantho swings the machine's left hand and engages the cutter to dismiss Mizuki before follwing it up with the weighty force of the Horizon Crusher at Ken! React! Both of you!
VJockey (06:17:47): (Izuru, Roger, Dido)
aldo salt (06:17:59): #Team-mates with action?
Meraxa (06:18:10): Ken: You're technical
VJockey (06:18:10): (go on)
Meraxa (06:18:21): *technically three!
VJockey (06:18:38): "Semantics"
Wyverncakes (06:18:42): Mizuki: "You have two hands, if you used them right they might just be sufficient!"
Wyverncakes (06:19:27): * "-But today is not that day!" The DuskBird's whip swings out again, twisting and bending to keep out of the range of the water cutter... all to lash around SolEraser's arm and yank it in the direction of its punch at Ken!+
cubey@aol.pl (06:19:33): Izuru: "Why are you siding with Indalph? Is it just for power? Even Wulgaru have better reasons than that!"
frifreeman (06:20:15): Walt: "I don't think my team can actually kill sol eraser though. Usually we're not that effective fighting something that big. Usually we just scratch their armor or shoot unimportant parts."
cubey@aol.pl (06:20:27): *The Grungust raises its right hand. In the fist's grip, first a sword handle appears - then the rest, a shining blade, the Lucent Blade! Izuru lunges, the sword held high before swinging down at the eChaos!&
aldo salt (06:21:08): •"Vantho!" Dido shouts. "I never selected your weapon for our duel." ShelLancer raises her lance. "…use these!" A rumbling noise comes from one of the Silos…and a horde of freshly manufactured Arc Thorns placed in storage bursts out of the warehouse's wall, flying at SolEraser's limbs from an unseen angle, piercing into them like mosquitoes! "Lance…Shock!" Dido snarls, sending lightning into the horde. "I'll sizzle you out of there!"+
tengusaur (06:21:10): Roger: "I'll leave this to you for now. For the time being... Your presence is no longer welcome here, I'm afraid!" Big O takes heavy steps towards eChaos, firing another Moby Dick Anchor and trying to catch Sara like Syphor previously! &
Meraxa (06:21:19): Ken releases the Scarlet Whip so he might duck aside of the blow, but not too far away! After all, that way he can rush to get in close, and try to punch Vantho's eye out with a claw!+
frifreeman (06:21:22): Walt: "Though, I guess our luck would make it that we actually hit something critically important when we actually just need to scratch them or hit something unimportant."
frifreeman (06:22:24): Walt: "Oh well. Team, shoot Sol Eraser! Try not to shoot the cockpit though. Try to... hit its limbs or something. "
frifreeman (06:22:44): Walt's team start to fire shots aimed at Sol Eraser's limbs.+
VJockey (06:22:46): Sara: "Humans have limits. Think about it, wouldn't it be better to be the conqueror? To be something superior to what you used to be before?"
Wyverncakes (06:23:13): Mizuki: "Sara, you threw away everything of value about yourself!"
Wyverncakes (06:23:21): "Look at this place... it was your home!"
Wyverncakes (06:23:23): "Our home...!"
frifreeman (06:23:25): Walt: "Yeah, wouldn't it be funny if this time I actually kill something as strong as this?"
VJockey (06:23:38): "It was my home. Now its nothing."
cubey@aol.pl (06:24:10): Izuru: "Everything has limits! If you think Indalph are in any way better, I'll show you how wrong your way of thinking is!"
Meraxa (06:24:43): Ken: Conquerors die, and their empires fall. You won't even have your own Alexandria.
tengusaur (06:25:56): Roger: "Being a conqueror sounds like way too much work for a single man. I am satisfied being a negotiator, thank you very much!"
VJockey (06:26:17): Team Solsavior & Walt! Between the numerous attacks - from the DODS shots to the Arc Thorns to getting dragged and Punched, the most that Vantho can do is decimate the area. Still... he resists the damage and attempts to regroup - albeit jerkily as he lets loose several scattered cannon blasts all over the place.
aldo salt (06:26:19): "Your boss?" Dido snarls. "He told us all about the Indalph…how it absorbs conquered foes into it's organization, eventually making them the new leaders of its conquests." She shakes her head. "Don't you get it? You're just another cog in its mechanism. And when you wear out, it'll just plod along and find another piece to use!"
VJockey (06:26:54): Vantho: "Oh this is... irritating. I seem to be getting some resistance."
VJockey (06:27:44): There are choked cries of pain from within SolEraser. It seems that despite the control Vantho had, they were still trying to push the odds to the Unity Group's favor.
VJockey (06:28:36): "Oh come now. Don't resist. Your minds will be erased for your treachery, but at the very least cooperate and I can make it painless."
Wyverncakes (06:28:44): Mizuki: "All the more reason to see you dead, and those three free!"
Wyverncakes (06:29:31): "Ken, Dido... it's time! We're going to show the Indalph just how far short their knock-off falls!"
Meraxa (06:29:50): Ken: ...For real?!
aldo salt (06:30:06): "You hear that?" Dido shouts. "Keep fighting! We're coming to get you out!" She nods. "Got it Mizuki! Do we need approval from the Director?"
VJockey (06:30:15): Izuru & Roger! Sara fends off the sword strike with the eChaos' drill! Sparks being spat all over the place before sections of the weapon open in preperation to unleash a swarm of missiles!
VJockey (06:30:40): Sara: "I know all the weaknesses in that machine's frame. Every joint and every spot. I even know where you are-"
Wyverncakes (06:30:44): Mizuki: "It's fine."
Wyverncakes (06:30:56): "So..."
Wyverncakes (06:31:07): "SAVE OUR SOL-!"
VJockey (06:31:09): Except that Roger managed to catch himself a dolphin!
Wyverncakes (06:31:16):
The DuskBird dove towards the ScarleTiger, which in turn charged at the ShelLancer. In a flash the machines began to transform, the two gigantic legs extending from the Lancer's shell as the side opposite of it opened up and swung down, forming hips. The ScarleTiger -now forming an incomplete torso with a right arm- connected with the white machine. The contrasting colors mixed and flowed; red, orange, and white arranged perfectly.
And lastly the DuskBird docked with the ScarleTiger's back, nearly its entire form now that of a black arm radiating malevolence. From the combined machine's back the DuskBird's six wings unfurled, displaying their full size and granduer, and a white head framed in a black, avian helmet rose up from the robot's body. It punched out with one fist, its eyes flashing violet and gold.
"-SOLSAVIOR!"
VJockey (06:31:18): (Continue Roger!)
cubey@aol.pl (06:31:36): (I also had a &)
VJockey (06:31:43): (Roger and Izuru)
VJockey (06:31:52): (Also, Team Sol and Walt. Go)
tengusaur (06:31:52): Roger: "I'm sure you do. But what about these two machines that face you? Now, Izuru! Together!"
cubey@aol.pl (06:32:14): Izuru: "The Grungust Alpha was made way after you betrayed humanity! You know nothing of what it can do!"
cubey@aol.pl (06:33:40): "The blade of sincerity will cut through your deception and manipulation." Grungust's open palm moves alongside the Lucent Sword. Its generator enters overload, lines of power appear on its body, glowing more and more intensely.
Wyverncakes (06:34:10): Mizuki: "Walt... we're going to need an opening."
Wyverncakes (06:34:26): "So whatever happens don't let up!"
tengusaur (06:34:37): * Big O raises a shielded arm to protect against the incoming missiles - but only for a short moment, while its in-built piston charges energy. And when that's done, Roger sends a powerful hook into eChaos' chest - and then releases the accumulated pressure in a Sudden Impact! "This is the end for you. Bye bye!" +
VJockey (06:34:48): Vantho: "Oh come now. We all know what is going to happen next. Do you honestly think such a flawed machine can defeat me?"
Wyverncakes (06:34:54): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxgwZiCM6wA
cubey@aol.pl (06:35:00): Izuru: "Witness the power of a human, power that you threw away! ALPHA STRIIIIIKE!" *Suddenly, the sword extends in length. No, that is not a physical blade, but rather a long blade of energy. Just as Roger strikes, Izuru slices from above once again!+
Wyverncakes (06:35:06): Mizuki just spares a snort.
Wyverncakes (06:35:20): "If we can't beat you with light or darkness..."
cubey@aol.pl (06:35:47): Izuru: "... Decisive strike."
cubey@aol.pl (06:35:51): He always wanted to say that.
Wyverncakes (06:36:04): * And SolSavior charges full-speed at Vantho. "There's still brute force!" And the machine sends a brutal haymaker SolEraser's way!+
frifreeman (06:37:14): Walt: "Whatever happen? A lot of things can happen you know. There could be a gamma ray burst from a nearby star that kill all living being at this instant. I'll try to keep up the pressure until that happen though."
VJockey (06:37:22): Izuru and Roger! Sara is struck by both attacks. The eChaos is devastated by the massive energy blade and the force of the Sudden Impact. She barely had time to try to pull back and phase into where they wouldn't be able to get her!
VJockey (06:37:27): "Damnit..."
VJockey (06:37:35): "Looks like you're on your own Vantho!"
VJockey (06:38:19): "Though I have to say... I'm looking forward to seeing how this ends."
cubey@aol.pl (06:38:25): Vents on the Grungust's body release huge clouds of steam, shadow obscuring a half of its face as it's hunched over after its most powerful attack.
VJockey (06:38:34): eChaos - Retreated.
cubey@aol.pl (06:38:42): Izuru: "It's all yours now, guys!"
tengusaur (06:38:57): Roger: "You're not leaving if I can say anything about it, I'm afraid!" Big O fires another anchor after eChaos!
tengusaur (06:38:59): But it missed.
VJockey (06:41:20): Team Sol & Genoace! The 8th Team continues to bombard SolEraser, scarring its armor more and more before it attempts to cross counter the incoming haymaker! Metal skids loudly and spits sparks as the fist impacts against the side of Eraser's head! Vantho's eye bugs out to almost comical proportions before it glares and grabs tightly onto the arm!
VJockey (06:41:50): "You must be deluded if you think you can defeat me in honorable combat. After all, I am a master of it."
Meraxa (06:42:01): Ken: ...Oh dear. Did no one tell you?
cubey@aol.pl (06:42:33): Izuru: "Sorry, but we don't fight for honor."
cubey@aol.pl (06:42:44): Izuru: "We fight to protect everyone!"
VJockey (06:43:21): "Hm?"
VJockey (06:43:34): Solsavior. Go again.
Meraxa (06:43:52): Ken: Mizuki!
Wyverncakes (06:44:16): Mizuki: "We... are going to save them."
Wyverncakes (06:45:24): * With those last two words... suddenly a dark, destructive aura began to spread across SolSavior again... But Mizuki didn't seem worried about it at all even as SolSavior delivered a fierce thrust-kick to knock SolEraser back into a wall of the hangar!&
Wyverncakes (06:45:40): "And we're going to do it the way it was meant to be done!"
aldo salt (06:45:47): "Honor implies respect, Vantho." Dido says. She clenches her teeth. "And sorry…but we just don't respect you!"
VJockey (06:46:00): "OOF!"
VJockey (06:46:40): The SolEraser goes crashing through the hangar. Its trying to get up, but with the impact and the damage it took... not to mention Vantho's own disorientation it was slow going!
VJockey (06:46:46): Continue! TEAM SOL!
Wyverncakes (06:47:20): SolSavior's arms are spread wide, as a... golden hue began to spread over its arms, shins, and face.
Wyverncakes (06:47:32): Mizuki: "The DawnBird may have started out as a legitimate replacement..."
Wyverncakes (06:47:38): "But that's not what it is any more."
Wyverncakes (06:47:50): "It's not a replacement. It's an addition."
Wyverncakes (06:48:44): A flash of golden light, and then for one brief moment... a gigantic, golden beast stood between the two machines... vaguely like a deer...
Wyverncakes (06:48:55): "QuasArmor... activate!"
Wyverncakes (06:49:10): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XkssGrQWFg
aldo salt (06:49:31): Dido inhales sharply. "Oh that is beautiful! What's it…"
Wyverncakes (06:50:12): Though incomplete, the now-black machine stood bearing the rudiments of additional, golden armor. Armor that suddenly ejected the three weapons of the component machines: whip, spear, and shotels!
Wyverncakes (06:50:51): "This world is not just one of light... darkness can exist even here, in a calm, steady cycle. Night to day, day to night!"
Wyverncakes (06:51:18): "And the QuasArmor allows for SolSavior's powers to function in harmony!"
Meraxa (06:51:35): Ken: Oh, this will be FUN!
Wyverncakes (06:51:57): The shotels were joined into a bow, the whip into a bowstring, and the spear into one massive arrow, crackling with Void energy!
Wyverncakes (06:52:00): Mizuki: "Vantho!"
Wyverncakes (06:52:12): "Your parasites probably got more than their share of Sol energy though..."
Wyverncakes (06:52:33): "So what's going to happen to you when there ISN'T a controlled union with Void energy though?"
Wyverncakes (06:52:42): "SOL! SAGITTA!"
Wyverncakes (06:52:47): * And with that, the arrow's loosed!+
VJockey (06:53:12): "... Oh no."
VJockey (06:54:15): Vantho's last words were surprisngly apt as the loosed arrow struck him right in the eye, making SolEraser jerk back from the impact. Void Energy coursed through his Sol inundated body, as well as that of his parasites!
VJockey (06:54:34): SolEraser crashes to the ground before splitting into its component pieces.
cubey@aol.pl (06:54:45): Izuru: "You got him!"
cubey@aol.pl (06:55:03): He looks with concern now. What about the pilots?
VJockey (06:55:05): What's left of the Indalph leader can be seen rapidly withering and crumbling from the hole in DreadVenom.
tengusaur (06:55:18): Roger: "That was impressive. How are the pilots?"
VJockey (06:55:26): There was a groan..
VJockey (06:55:37): Siphor: "Well... that was... unpleasant..."
VJockey (06:55:49): "But I should thank you for saving us."
frifreeman (06:55:55): Walt: "No! Don't thank us yet!"
Wyverncakes (06:55:55): Mizuki: "... Alive."
frifreeman (06:56:01): Walt: "Get to safety!"
Wyverncakes (06:56:03): And she lets out a relieved sigh.
frifreeman (06:56:18): Walt: "Usuually suddenly the enemy boss will come or some sniper will shoot your hea dor smething at this time!"
VJockey (06:56:31): Tiam: "I've got this weird taste in my teeth... ugh... and its still ringing through em..."
Meraxa (06:56:32): Ken: Lucky for them, they're from the wrong dimension to be affected by void energy

aldo salt (06:56:55): "We should self-destruct SolEraser outside, though." Dido muses. "Y'know, so the Indalph think you're dead."
cubey@aol.pl (06:57:03): Izuru: "Somehow, we did it..."
VJockey (06:57:04): Azel: "Our status is amicable. We are relatively unharmed."
tengusaur (06:57:15): Roger: "I'm pretty sure this counts as safety at this point. Vantho didn't seem to be the kind to employ snipers."
cubey@aol.pl (06:57:16): He feels relieved. Such destruction happened today. BUt, in the end, it was a success!
VJockey (06:57:33): Despite all the ways this day could have turned out
VJockey (06:57:40): and despite the damage to Solaris HQ
VJockey (06:58:06): The day ends on a high note and with the fall of another of the Indalph's leaders!
VJockey (06:58:15): Truly it can be said...
VJockey (06:58:19): MISSION. COMPLETE.
