cubey@aol.pl (16:00:29): You thought after the recent terrorist-and-future artificial people attack, Brussels would be given a break.
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:34): You thought wrong.
cubey@aol.pl (16:01:27): The Anti Earthling Party launched an all out attack on the city - using three transport ships, loaded to the brim. Usually it was just one!
cubey@aol.pl (16:02:06): What could be motivating them? Perhaps the fact that the Gebian grand vote is going on? As in - right now?
cubey@aol.pl (16:02:24): Unity Group deploys into the city once again...
cubey@aol.pl (16:02:54): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddyd8WxIOUY
tengusaur (16:05:38): Hetepheres: "This is the biggest invasion they have launched yet. And, considering the circumstances, the last one..."
tengusaur (16:05:59): Hetepheres: "There is no doubt about it. The one leading the AEP force is High Commander Teremun."
tormterra (16:06:27): Kei: "And what would they hope to get by attacking during the grand vote?"
Wyverncakes (16:06:38): Flit: "But... what are they expecting to get?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:06:49): As the UG shuttle approaches to the city, one thing is immediately obvious.
Aero (16:06:54): Willis: "If anything this kinda helps to swing thing in our favour."
Wyverncakes (16:07:00): "After the vote, wouldn't they have to give it all back?"
tengusaur (16:07:07): Hetepheres: "I do not know. But I intend to ask him.\"
Meraxa (16:07:21): Ken: Depends. This might be a last shot whilst its 'legal'.
tengusaur (16:07:26): Hetepheres: "And more than just ask." She looks at the Scaraber, ready to fight in its Crab Frame.
cubey@aol.pl (16:07:29): Brussels does not only house the ESUN headquarters, but it was also under attack recently - which means security has been fortified, and various units fight on the streets right now, giving resistance to the Gebian invaders!
cubey@aol.pl (16:07:37): However... they are getting overwhelmed.
cubey@aol.pl (16:08:02): ???: "Genocide is not my goal. If you do not wish to lose your lives, stand down!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:08:13): A familiar voice calls out through the city.
cubey@aol.pl (16:08:26): It is the High Commander of the AEP.
tengusaur (16:08:56): Hetepheres: "As I thought. Everyone, deploy!"
VJockey (16:09:06): "Just cut the head off and everything else falls apart right?"
tormterra (16:09:12): Kei: "Understood, Purple-2 moving out." Even if it was in the Huckebein Omega
Meraxa (16:09:25): Ken: That would be too easy, honestly.
Aero (16:09:32): Willis: "Gotcha, heading out."
cubey@aol.pl (16:09:40): Teremun's unit is visible from your position. It's where the fighting is at its thickest - near the headquarters!
Peter Kampschroeder (16:09:44): Jen looks over the battle raging throughout the city and the straight up alien invasion that she's about to charge into. "...Somehow, I get the feeling I don't really...belong, here...Jennifer Douglas, moving out."
cubey@aol.pl (16:09:50): Surprisingly, damage to the local buildings is pretty small.
tengusaur (16:09:52): Hetepheres: "Killing Teremun would be preferable. But the only thing we need to do is hold them off until the Grand Vote finishes."
Aero (16:09:55): Willis has once again commandeered the Gespenst he worked nearly to scraps the last time he used it.
VJockey (16:10:11): "Time to knock a few heads! This is Peola, I'm moving out!"
Wyverncakes (16:10:16): Flit's geting ready... though considering Gebian Noble Barriers, he gives the mechanics the time to switch the AGE-1 to Normal mode.
Aero (16:10:20): Willis: "Will he stop if the Grand Vote goes in our favour?"
Meraxa (16:10:24): Ken deploys in the ScarleTiger, hand already holding its whip.
cubey@aol.pl (16:10:31): The defenders - mass produced Huckebeins and more outdated units such as Huckebeins and M6s, are getting overwhelmed.
tengusaur (16:10:34): Heph is already inside Scaraber, which jumps out heavily into the street and starts rushing forward. Crab Frame can't fly, unfortunately.
tormterra (16:10:35): Kei: "Are you sure? Making the vote pointless seems like the goal here."
cubey@aol.pl (16:10:45): They lose ground and an Earth unit explodes every once in a while.
cubey@aol.pl (16:11:11): (Replace the second Huckebein with Genoace)
tengusaur (16:11:14): Hetepheres: "He should stop. He is not that much of a scoundrel to ignore the decision of the high council. Close, but not entirely enough."
cubey@aol.pl (16:11:43): Your entrance does not go unnoticed.
cubey@aol.pl (16:11:49): "Unity Group's here! Thank goodness!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:11:58): "Just try to survive a while longer men!"
tormterra (16:12:02): Kei: "You do realize that he's attacking in the middle of the vote to decide our fate, right?" The Huckebein follows behind the Crab Frame staying low for now to avoid providing a big target
cubey@aol.pl (16:12:10): However, the AEP notices you as well.
cubey@aol.pl (16:12:38): Teremun: "Hetepheres! I expected you to come... but it's disappointing. I assume you're not here because you changed your mind, did you?"
tengusaur (16:13:17): Hetepheres: "In your dreams, Teremun. What is the meaning of this? Why are you attacking in the middle of the Grand Vote?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:54): Teremun: "Folly... you continue your folly, I see. And the worst thing is many of our proud race follow your opinion, as well! No matter."
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:26): Teremun: "I will prove them wrong by my own hands - through conquest. If the Anti Earthling Party shows how much of Earth we can take over in a short amount of time, the Vote will be in our favor for sure."
tormterra (16:14:31): Kei: "Do you even want the planet? All the other alien invaders, monsters, demons and who knows what else would come for you if you got it."
Peter Kampschroeder (16:14:54): Jen: "You might be able to take it, but can you keep it?"
Aero (16:15:13): Willis: "It's going to be pretty embarrassing when it turns out you can only take over one neighbourhood."
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:16): Teremun: "Do not doubt the true pride and strength of Geb."
Wyverncakes (16:15:27): Flit: "There's nothing for you to be proud of...!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:30): Teremun: "To arms, my loyal allies! All units, converge on this position!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:46): Nekhbet: "Yes, High Commander..."
Wyverncakes (16:16:03): "You couldn't win by a vote so you're trying to win by military power!"
tengusaur (16:16:14): Hetepheres: "No. I do not think so." Scaraber takes a wider stance, snapping its claws. "You will not be able to take Earth. What opposes us is not the pride of Geb - merely your own, Teremun!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:17): Khaldun: "Be it this way, then. Fight with honor, Unity Group!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:30): All Gebian units are going for your position now.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:16:47): Jen: "I'll show you honor..."
VJockey (16:16:52): "As much as can be shown on the battlefield at least."
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:57): There is a lot of them now - and in addition to Teremun's Emperor Scaraber, Khaldun's spider like Araneonheir appears from one side, and Nekhbet's Aposniper from the other.
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:37): Enemy list: Emperor Scaraber (Teremun), Araneonheir (Khaldun), Aposniper (Nekhbet), Levies x120, Guardians x20
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:48): Initiative list:
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:49): Hetepheres, Jen, Willis, Flit, Kei, Peola, Ken
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:56): Hetepheres, Jen, Willis, go.
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:18): Reminder on enemies:
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:34): Emperor Scaraber - a masculine equivalent of Hetepheres' own unit.
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:47): Araneonheir - heavy spider-like unit armed with a multitude of melee weapons.
cubey@aol.pl (16:19:03): Aposniper - wasp-like flying unit with an energy bow.
cubey@aol.pl (16:19:22): Noble barriers: Gold for Hetepheres and Teremun, Silver for the other named bosses and Guardians
tengusaur (16:20:35): Hetepheres: "People of Earth, fight for your planet. We will not let the dream of an egomaniac tyrant come to fruition! Scarab Power!" Scaraber braces against the ground with its feet, gathers power around the eye-stalks on its helmet, and then fires two large lasers from them, aiming for Teremun! +
tengusaur (16:20:53): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-aexLJKwME
cubey@aol.pl (16:21:43): Teremun: "You wound me, Hetepheres. I have internalized the teachings of our society, but you cast them away!"
Aero (16:22:44): * "Hmmm...I always wondered what it'd be like to go up against the Scaraber." The Gespenst draws it's mega beam rifle and takes off right towards the Emperor Scaraber. As he closes the distance the PT takes aim upwards at Scaraber and fires off a long pink beam up at the machine. +
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:06): *Emperor Scaraber takes to the skies and lunges at Hetepheres' Scaraber! It dodges mid-air, taking only glancing damage from the eye lasers, and its four arms retrieve two laser staves from under its back armor.
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:37): Each stave emits an energy blade. Held with two hands each, Teremun stabs with the beam swords at Hetepheres! React.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:23:39): *Jen grapple-hooks her way to the top of a nearby building, and takes aim at the Aranaeoheir with her rail pistol. "Alright, deep breaths. You can do this..." She quickly fires of three rounds at its center of mass.+
VJockey (16:23:39): "Maybe you can ask the General over there if she wants a spar next time"
tengusaur (16:24:37): Hetepheres: "No. You simply interpret them in a way that is convenient for you. In a way that lets scum like you float to the top, under the guise of acting honorable." Hetepheres extends Scaraber's claws, and tries to grab Emperor Scaraber's wrists with them - and then start slowly crushing them! +
cubey@aol.pl (16:24:45): Teremun's forces are in the middle, with Khaldun flanking you from the left and Nekhbet from the right. The high commander has about half of the mooks and the rest are spread equally on the flanks.
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:03): The swords stab down, leaving gashes on the crab frame - but quickly retreat, as Teremun reverses his move to escape the Gespenst's attack.
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:26): The High Commander twirls his weapons and sends laser beams sweeping from them, in counter attack to Willis' assault!
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:27): React.
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:10): Khaldun: "Not bad! Not bad at all..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:35): The Araneonheir is hit - but it is a tough unit, and tanks it with minimal damage. Also, its arms release something...
Peter Kampschroeder (16:27:53): Jen: "Huh?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:53): It's beam strings, that the general uses to attach his unit to nearby buildings, and swing up like a certain other spider-themed individual!
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:35): Khaldun: "However, a Gebian general is not someone you can underestimate! Prepare yourself!" Suddenly, Araneonheir lands in front of Jen's much smaller unit, its collection of weapons already raised - and then they pummel down on her!
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:36): React.
Wyverncakes (16:28:51): # Jen
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:55): Approved.
Aero (16:29:09): * "A spar is not quite the same, I wouldn't be able to take it seriously." The thrusters are ignited and the Gespenst takes off into the air to avoid those beams coming towards him. +
tengusaur (16:29:43): Hetepheres: "Remember - physical attacks against silver barriers, energy against golden! Levies do not possess them, anything should work on them! Willis, what is your status?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:30:14): The Gespenst manages to avoid the laser blasts - it looks like Teremun was too distracted to aim well, all things considered. The beams however cut into the buildings behind Willis.
cubey@aol.pl (16:30:21): Hopefully they were evacuated already.
Wyverncakes (16:30:27): * Those weapons might be coming down, but the AGE-1 Normal's rushing to its aid, shield being interposed between as many of those weapons as possible and Flit also striking with his beam saber!+
Wyverncakes (16:30:55): "If you want us to fight, then that's fine!"
Aero (16:30:56): Willis: "I have his attention and I'm still in one piece."
cubey@aol.pl (16:31:20): Teremun: "How rude. You are acting as if Earthlings were any better."
Wyverncakes (16:31:22): "It's better than just letting you get away with all the misery you've caused for Earth after the vote anyways!"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:31:26): *Jen: "You can do that too?!" Jen's in enough shock that she doesn't immediately move-but once the general strikes, she steps sideways-and off the building. Her own grappling hook flies off to pull her towards safety across the street.+
cubey@aol.pl (16:31:42): Teremun: "If anything, they are even more despicable!"
Aero (16:32:20): Willis: "That's doesn't mean a lot coming from a person who's attacking a city just to prove a point."
tormterra (16:32:25): Kei: "We haven't enslaved any planets yet."
tengusaur (16:32:30): Hetepheres: "I can think of a precious few Earthlings that are worse than you, Teremun."
VJockey (16:32:49): "First of all. Not an Earthling."
cubey@aol.pl (16:32:52): Jen's getting away safely - because Flit was there to interpose.
Meraxa (16:33:03): Ken: Always the same damn claim. And always full of it.
VJockey (16:33:29): "Second of all, I like them way more than you, you self righteous twit!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:33:30): Khaldun: "Ohh? Not bad. I disagree with the High Commander, by the way. I have nothing personal against Earthlings and wish you no harm, however..."
Aero (16:33:50): Willis: "You'll still have to fight us?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:34:16): A khopesh, a mace and other weapons bang against AGE's shield, denting it - and the beam saber thrust is suddenly interrupted as Khaldun grab's the right arm with his own arm - one of them was free, instead of holding a weapon!
Peter Kampschroeder (16:34:18): Jen: "...Honor forbids you from disobeying orders?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:34:49): Khaldun: "I have chosen to follow Teremun, and I have no intention of changing that!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:34:57): Flit and Kei, go.
VJockey (16:35:17): "...So by that logic if we defeat him, you'll surrender?"
tengusaur (16:36:18): Hetepheres: "General Khaldun is an old soldier. Fighting is the path he has chosen for all of his life. As expected of my old mentor, he has not changed at all since last time."
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:23): Teremun: "That's high expectations you have there, considering what happened the last time I crossed blades with your Unity Group."
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:34): Teremun: "I am sure you still remember, don't you Hetepheres?"
tormterra (16:36:48): * Rather than bicker with the enemy generals, Kei focused her attention on their followers. Whipping out the photon magnum she started firing several sprays into the massed ranks of the levies, using the mobility of the Huckebein to change her position between each before they could effectively respond, ending on the roof of a nearby building. +
VJockey (16:37:05): "Confidence is the difference between victory and defeat! You have too much and your defeat is a possibility, have none and you're already defeated."
VJockey (16:37:24): "And honestly I'd say we still have some good odds!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:55): Khaldun: "That's the spirit! Give it all, now. I do not intend to hold back, either."
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:04): (AGE's hand is still grabbed by Khaldun by the way.)
tengusaur (16:38:14): Hetepheres: "Today shall be different, Teremun. I am sure you noticed the legendary weapon at my disposal. I have worked to improve myself, while you sat on your throne."
Wyverncakes (16:38:44): * Banged up as it is, Flit brought the AGE-1 Normal specifically for its shield, and it swings it around to try to bash in the Araneonheir's empty hand!+
cubey@aol.pl (16:39:36): A few of the Levies are hit by the photon blasts. The units explode or tumble away, some landing on their backs and finding it hard to right themselves!
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:10): As the Huckebein lands on the roof, a group of Levies fire their laser cannons - a barrage from several sides, especially since a few Guardians join in, more lasers fired from their spears.
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:12): React!
Aero (16:40:27): #Kei?
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:36): The Araneonheir lets go off Flit's Gundam. However general Khaldun does not retreat...
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:38): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (16:41:10): "ORA ORA ORA ORA!" He unleashes a barrage of close-range punches, not slashing with weapons but being content on pummeling AGE-1 with his fists. And remember, there's six of them!
cubey@aol.pl (16:41:18): React to this as well, Flit.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:41:33): #Flit
cubey@aol.pl (16:41:36): Approved.
Aero (16:42:09): * "Slash Ripper!" Two of the Gespenst's remote weapons are launched and directed to fly straight into the group of Levies firing at the Huckebein. Whether he stopped the beams through destroying the Levies or just had them act as a shield for the Huckebein didn't matter. Either would work. +
Peter Kampschroeder (16:42:35): *That ORAORAORA spam will face some complication-namely, Jen blasting away with her pistol at the head of Khaldun's unit.+
Wyverncakes (16:43:52): * Flit does not stick around to be a punching bag! Instead he springs back, quick-drawing the DODS Rifle and firing at the ground in front of Khaldun and his barrier!+
tormterra (16:44:02): * Spotting the return fire, Kei takes to the skies, using the tesla drive to move from her position. Crossing the street she peppers the remaining levies with further shots from the photon magnum before dipping into a street behind the building on the opposite side. +
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:04): Araneonheir is shot in the head - which is enoug to stun or at least distract the pilot long enough before any really bad damage is done to the pummeled mobile suit!
cubey@aol.pl (16:46:02): As Khaldun shakes his unit's head, trying to get un-confused, the DODS Rifle fires. The shot is deflected by the silver barrier, but the floor underneath the spidery unit collapses! Araneonheir disappears into the building's depths!
cubey@aol.pl (16:47:21): The Levies' ranks are disrupted by the slash ripper, which allows Kei to quickly outrun their lasers. Guardians on the other hand are much more elite and accurate, and parts of the Huckebein melt slightly!
cubey@aol.pl (16:47:36): Kei and Willis working in unison manage to destroy quite a few Levies more.
cubey@aol.pl (16:47:46): However, while you engage Teremun and Khaldun's forces...
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:31): Nekhbet: "I will recover from the disgrace of a double defeat..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:36): Nekhbet: "All forces, engage!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:48): Nekhbet's right flank is getting closer, unopposed!
cubey@aol.pl (16:49:08): By the way, the Brussels defense force has withdrawn to a second defensive line, which is behind you.
Aero (16:49:50): Willis: "Crap..."
tengusaur (16:50:21): Hetepheres: "Free hands, engage Nekhbet and her forces! Watch out for Teremun, I doubt he is out of commission yet!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:29): ???: "Oh my, are my sister's friends so dull witted they can't even defend a front now?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:51): Three new units jump out of nowhere and stand in front of the engaging Gebian force!
tengusaur (16:50:51): Hetepheres: "..."
VJockey (16:51:00): "...................."
VJockey (16:51:10): "..........................................."
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:14): Two of them look like mass produced, if well made units, the third is more super-like though.
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:21): Regalis Atrox

Wyverncakes (16:51:49): -Wait, that answered that.
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:54): ???: "That's me! Did you miss me, Peolla?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:52:11): On your screens you see the annoying face of Peolla's little sister.

cubey@aol.pl (16:52:59): Ourania: "So mean! I see you didn't change one bit. Well, whatever."
cubey@aol.pl (16:53:15): Ourania: "Since your new friends seem so incapable of defending themselves, we're here to help."
cubey@aol.pl (16:53:21): Ourania: "Salwah, Monika! Let's go!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:53:42): Salwah: ".. Roger that, Ourania."
tormterra (16:53:46): Kei: "...She knows what she's doing intervening here and just doesn't care, right?"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:53:56): Jen: "...Um...Those are good guys, right?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:12): Monika: "Please excuse miss Nelfess' choice of words. We are trying to assist you, sincerely."
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:22): Respectively:

tengusaur (16:54:45): Hetepheres: "She is helping keep the defense line. I am willing to put up with her for that, for the time being."
VJockey (16:54:51): "..."
VJockey (16:54:57): [Peola sighs irritably.}
VJockey (16:55:16): "I'll deal with her as long as she's being a pain in their rears and not ours"
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:16): The Regalis Atrox creates a collection of energy spears out of nowhere, and throws them to impale a few of the incoming Levies.
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:35): At the same time, the Arma Volnus charges forward, with Arma Venus providing long range support...
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:51): At least before the latter almost runs into a building clumsily, causing its beam machinegun barrage to cease.
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:56): Monika: "Ah, I am so very sorry!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:59): Salwah: "..."
tengusaur (16:56:05): Hetepheres: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:56:09): Arma Volnus is surrounded by Gebians now because of that.
cubey@aol.pl (16:56:16): Peola, Ken, go.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:56:31): Jen: "...Uh...huh..."
Meraxa (16:56:53): Ken: ...This is what I get for trying to be sneakier.
tormterra (16:58:35): Kei: "Try to keep her safe. And hope that the other two will actually be helpful."
VJockey (16:58:36): *Peola just lets out a somewhat irritable noise before rushing to the support of the Arma Venus - sword still sheathed Peola ties her Machina's armored scarf to it and proceeds to swing it with great force! Using the weapon as a makeshift flail to smash away any Gebians that attempt to attack!+
Meraxa (16:58:59): Ken sighs a little, before suddenly his scarlet whip lashes out from behind a corner towards some of the Gebians surrounding the new unit. Trying to catch one by his neck, he attempts to throw one into its allies!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:39): Peola and Ken start throwing Gebians away, the beetle units' limbs flailing.
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:55): The two Armas are free of immediate enemy attention.
cubey@aol.pl (17:01:11): Salwah: "... It was not necessary, I was fine... probably..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:01:24): Nekhbet: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:02:03): You may have noticed that the surrounding area became really clear, almost like if Gebians wanted to get away on purpose.
cubey@aol.pl (17:02:23): From above, the Aposniper draws its bowstring! It lets it fly - a giant barrage of energy arrows, aimed at Ken and Peola!
cubey@aol.pl (17:02:28): React to the energy rain, both of you.
Aero (17:02:44): #?

cubey@aol.pl (17:03:22): (Willis already had 2 supports in this round)
VJockey (17:03:48): *Peola pulls back her sword and uses its size to defend herself from the arrow rain!+
Meraxa (17:04:26): Ken meanwhile tries to dash away, moving back into cover - and attempting to get out of sight.+
griefgathering (17:04:59): *That barrage is probably going to be devastating, but something descends from above Aposniper, like a shooting star cutting through the night! That something is also quite tiny, but the force it will hit the Gebian unit with is still not to be underestimated!+
griefgathering (17:05:11): ???: "Deeyaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
tengusaur (17:05:41): Hetepheres: "...Another servant of your sister?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:05:42): Nekhbet: "You have made a tactical mista...?!"
VJockey (17:05:49): "...I hope not."
cubey@aol.pl (17:06:03): The barrage is cut short, with minimal effect - as something crashes down into Aposniper, sending it flying down!
VJockey (17:06:31): "... And I have no idea if those two are her servants. If they were they'd be crying a lot with how much she likes causing trouble."
griefgathering (17:06:44): Whatever just hit Aposniper also crashes ungracefully into the ground below.
griefgathering (17:07:28): Maybe it's dead.
tengusaur (17:07:48): Hetepheres: "...What is it, then?"
griefgathering (17:07:52): ???: "Man...I didn't think that running gag would be useful for once!"
griefgathering (17:07:56): Or not.
cubey@aol.pl (17:07:56): Salwah: "... What was that just now?"
VJockey (17:08:03): ".... I have no idea."
tormterra (17:08:10): Kei: "I have no idea. But whoever it was, they were helpful."
griefgathering (17:08:47): When the smoke clears, there is a small person in the middle of the crater. The person is also wearing a hood.
cubey@aol.pl (17:08:56): The damaged Aposniper stands up.
Peter Kampschroeder (17:09:05): Jen: "...what."
griefgathering (17:09:16): Yes, it's the same person Jen talked to before.
Wyverncakes (17:09:17): Flit: "Someone else...?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:24): Nekhbet: "A single Earthling caused this much damage to Aposniper?! Who is this individual?"
griefgathering (17:09:24): ???: "Oh hey, paranoid lady!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:27): She is shocked.
Peter Kampschroeder (17:09:35): Jen: "I'm not paranoid!"
Peter Kampschroeder (17:09:43): "More importantly, how did you do that?!"
VJockey (17:10:00): "Maybe she's some kind of..."
VJockey (17:10:04): "Ki mistress!"
griefgathering (17:10:05): ???: "Well, I'm -technically- not an Earthling."
Aero (17:10:06): Willis: "Superhuman?"
tormterra (17:10:16): Kei: "Who are you? Identify yourself."
Meraxa (17:10:17): Ken: Just a day for surprises, isn't it...?
griefgathering (17:10:21): ???: "And now you're all just flattering me. Shucks."
griefgathering (17:10:37): The person lowers her hood.
griefgathering (17:10:45): http://i.imgur.com/iZoG9rn.jpg
griefgathering (17:10:56): "Relax! I'm on your side!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:06): 4th wall status:
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:08): BROKEN FOREVER
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:14): Neptune, Hetepheres, Jen, go.
Peter Kampschroeder (17:11:17): Jen: "...What is that in your hair?"
tengusaur (17:11:18): Hetepheres: "Good. Help us in this fight, newcomer. Everyone, do not be distracted. Our enemies are still numerous!"
Aero (17:11:37): Willis: ""If she packed that much force I'm glad she didn't crashland on me...
Wyverncakes (17:11:38): Flit: "Jen, you've met her before?"
Meraxa (17:11:44): Ken: ...R-Right...
griefgathering (17:12:06): "Well, this is a finale, so I'm not gonna hold back, that's for sure."
tormterra (17:12:38): Kei: "Or a building..."
Aero (17:12:50): Willis: "Or me when I was on a building..."
Peter Kampschroeder (17:13:05): Jen: "Urrrgh, don't remind me...Hey, kid!" She calls out at flit. "Keep looking for the Man-Spider, I want to help take him out."
VJockey (17:13:36): "...Finale?"
Meraxa (17:14:25): Ken: Well, I suppose it kinda is to our troubles with the AEP
Wyverncakes (17:14:39): Flit nods. Being an X-Rounder should help with that.
tormterra (17:15:40): Kei: "What does that even mean?"
Peter Kampschroeder (17:15:45): *As Jen says this, a hazy cloud spills out of the back of Cethlenn, eating into the ground around it. The cloud gathers and starts to glow a dull red, before dispersing back into Cethlenn-and dropping a new, mecha-sized rifle into Jen's hands. She returns once more to the city skyline, then starts firing bursts upon the various Geb grunts under Nekhbet's command-and the commander himself, for that matter.+
griefgathering (17:17:58): The newcomer summons a sheathed sword, and then draws it.
griefgathering (17:18:04): http://i.imgur.com/KbzvyeR.jpg
griefgathering (17:18:24): The blade hums like a beam saber, almost.
griefgathering (17:21:36): *Neptune: "It's time for Nep...to let 'er rip!" She starts sprinting along the street to where some of the Levies are, but at the last second changes her direction to leap off the wall of a building before striking!+
griefgathering (17:22:22): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVGD4ROLe8Q
VJockey (17:23:16): [Peola blinks, then taps at the side of her head almost in confusion. Her machina does the same. For a moment she thought she could almost hear music.]
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:38): Jen's sniping and the Nep strike cause the Levy line to break.
cubey@aol.pl (17:24:02): The remaining Levies try to flee, beetle legs skittering! The ones from Nekhbet's side at least.
cubey@aol.pl (17:24:47): However, the Guardians stand proud - two of them brandish their spears and charge Neptune, trying to skewer her. At the same time, others - both from Nekhbet and Khaldun sides, fire at Jen.
cubey@aol.pl (17:24:49): React!
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:07): (Nekhbet is female by the way)
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:23): Barriers change - silver for Hetepheres and Teremun, gold for others.
tengusaur (17:25:42): Hetepheres: "Keep all the enemies occupied, but focus on the commanders!" Scaraber takes a wide swing with one of its claws and sends it flying at Emperor Scaraber, spinning quickly like a drill! But this is just a distraction - Hetepheres rushes forward under it, trying to engage Teremun in melee from the side and grab his unit with her other pincer. &
Wyverncakes (17:25:50): # Jen
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:56): Approved.
griefgathering (17:26:04): Nep: "That's really helpful! I was wondering what these colors meant."
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:15): Teremun: "For once I agree. Will your forces surrender if you are defeated, Hetepheres?"
Wyverncakes (17:26:37): * "Fall back, I'll cover you!" Flit takes aim at the Guardians firing at Jen, letting the DODS Rifle do the heavy lifting!+
VJockey (17:27:01): #Nep?
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:14): Emperor Scaraber ducks under the drill pincer, already drawing the laser staves once again. It looks like Teremun wants to use the energy blade mode, but for now...
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:17): Hetepheres, continue!
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:19): Approved.
Peter Kampschroeder (17:27:31): *Fall back? No, Jen falls forward. Cethlenn runs and dives off the side of its perch, grappling hooks flying-and it uses them to swing itself low to the ground, then go soaring into the air!+
Wyverncakes (17:28:01): Flit: "Jen!"
griefgathering (17:28:17): Nep: *"And my dodge stat isn't just for show!" Suddenly, the tiny person slides, hoping to get under the spears, and then flip up to get on top of one of them. She'll use that to run up to the Guardian's main body with an energy charged blade, ready to chop it in two!+
Peter Kampschroeder (17:28:24): Jen: "I got this!"
tengusaur (17:28:57): Hetepheres: "I doubt it. For one, they are not my forces. I do not hold authority over them. We are not fighting as commander and underlings, but as equals!" She grabs Emperor Scaraber and lifts it into the air - and at this moment the claw rocket punch returns and attaches itself to Scaraber's other hand. Still spinning like a drill, she smashes it into Emperor Scaraber's armor in a shower of sparks! +
tormterra (17:29:20): Kei: Dodge stat? Are you a video game version of Ataru?"
VJockey (17:29:34): *Peola quickly unsheaths her sword, using her scarf to whip the scabbard away at a Levy before rushing at the other Guardian that Nep left, her blade charged with Ki as she made to parry the spear and unleash the energy building up in her blade in a point blank burst from its tip!+
VJockey (17:29:43): "What's a video game?"
Aero (17:29:59): Willis: "...really?"
Wyverncakes (17:30:09): Flit: "It's..."
Wyverncakes (17:30:11): Well he knows.
Wyverncakes (17:30:20): "... They're like simulators!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:30:21): Teremun's Emperor Scaraber is grabbed by Hetepheres - and there comes the drill.
Meraxa (17:30:21): Ken: She thought TV was documentaries!
Wyverncakes (17:30:29): Actually that would be a great way to train little kids, come to think of it.
cubey@aol.pl (17:30:37): The unit's pharaoh like head stares as Teremun smiles.
tormterra (17:30:38): Kei: "...How long have you been here, Peolla?"
VJockey (17:31:10): "....A while! They didn't have those video things in the Security Room!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:14): The laser blade staves start spinning, held one handed each - they form an effective barrier, practically neutralizing the drill as it struggles to penetrate the double spinning blades!
cubey@aol.pl (17:32:04): At the same time, Teremun's other two hands draw sickles. Sickles that immediately vibrate, as he cuts them into Scaraber's Deceased One armor, over and over again. Teremun does not try to break free of Hetepheres' grasp, instead counting on her to maintain the distance!
Aero (17:32:05): Willis: "If you want I could take you out sometime for you to learn about them."
cubey@aol.pl (17:32:05): React.
griefgathering (17:32:44): Neptune: "...Sorry, I'm trying to get over the shock of someone not knowing what video games are. It doesn't sound like you're amnesiac though, so that's good."
cubey@aol.pl (17:32:49): Jen jumps away from the building, the laser beams hitting where she stood a moment later.
cubey@aol.pl (17:33:16): The DODS gun is very effective when the barriers are appropriate - one of the Guardians is shot, the Gebian unit penetrated by the spiralling blast. It explodes!
VJockey (17:33:35): "Is it really that bad?!"
Meraxa (17:33:37): Ken: She's an alien. Her culture doesn't 'get' fiction.
tengusaur (17:33:49): * Seeing that her attack does not work too well, Hetepheres tries to a different approach - she makes the pincer that holds Emperor Scaraber spin, hopefully causing the enemy to spin as well! Then she jumps high into the air and sends the claw smashing into the ground, together with the AEP commander. +
Peter Kampschroeder (17:33:58): Jen: "Wait, what."
cubey@aol.pl (17:34:30): Regalis Filia blocks one of the spears, but it's unnecessary. Neptune is small and fast, she dodges the attacks easily enough - and heavily damages one of the attacking Guardians!
VJockey (17:34:57): "Wait... nobody told her?"
Meraxa (17:35:01): Ken: Something to do with stories only being worthwhile if they're rooted in history or something like that...
tormterra (17:35:11): Kei: "Nobody told who what?"
Peter Kampschroeder (17:35:23): Jen: "let's just save this for when I'm not being shot at, please."
VJockey (17:35:32): "New person didn't know I was a-"
VJockey (17:35:35): "Nevermind."
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:36): Emperor Scaraber spins - which forces Teremun to slice at the claw instead. He breaks free and runs away from the grapple.
griefgathering (17:35:47): Neptune: "Paranoid lady's right."
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:53): Overall though, his melee attack dealt not insignificant damage to the crab armor.
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:30): Teremun: "Is this all of Deceased One's power?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:49): Teremun: "You wield the power of our great tradition and past, Hetepheres. I can appreciate that. But mine is the power that will lead Geb to the future!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:54): Willis, Flit, Kei, go.
Wyverncakes (17:37:02): (Enemies?)
griefgathering (17:37:31): Neptune: "Beat 'em all up! Shenanigans later!"
tengusaur (17:37:45): Hetepheres: "Your vision of the future is a planet reduced to ruins, Teremun. Two of them!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:55): Enemy list: Emperor Scaraber (Teremun), Araneonheir (Khaldun) (in a building somewhere), Aposniper (damaged) (Nekhbet), Levies x80, Guardians x19 (1 damaged)
cubey@aol.pl (17:39:19): Teremun: "My vision does not sacrifice Geb's dignity. We will not compromise our ideals and let Earthlings corrupt them."
Peter Kampschroeder (17:39:41): Jen: "Wonder where I've heard that before..."
tengusaur (17:40:05): Hetepheres: "This is only because you consider cooperation undignified. You cannot stand the idea of being on equal terms with someone."
Wyverncakes (17:40:10): * WIth Khaldun still cooped up and out of the equation, the AGE-1 switches to go after the Guardians while their barriers are still complying. The shield gets put on the Gundam's back for the moment and Flit charges at them, DODS Rifle firing to occupy -or even shoot down- several while he slashes down at the damaged one!+
tormterra (17:40:30): * Jumping back into the sky from behind her building, Kei came up behind the Aposniper. Not giving Sekhmet a moment to respond to her presence, she pushes forward firing the fang slasher at the unit retracting it after a single attack to use it for its original purpose of a bayonet. +
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:53): The Guardians notice that the DODS Rifle is a threat to them - and try to dodge. However, the shot does not fire at any of them because...
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:08): Khaldun: "Won't let you do that, I'm afraid!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:51): The Araneonheir breaks through the building's wall (OH YEAAAH) and sends energy strings at AGE-1, trying to entangle and immobilize it!
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:52): React.
VJockey (17:43:10): "Look out!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:43:47): Teremun: "What of you, Hetepheres? Weren't you equal by my side?"
Aero (17:44:19): * Willis starts moving closer towards the battle between Heph and Teremun, wanting to be in position in case anything happened. A few stray shots are fired off from the PT at the Levies as it made it's way towards the torrent of blades. +
Wyverncakes (17:45:11): (Araneonheir's barrier would also be gold, yes?)
tengusaur (17:45:14): Hetepheres: "No. How many times do I have to tell you to make you realize?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:45:16): Yes
cubey@aol.pl (17:45:37): Teremun: "You are being stubborn. But I'd still gladly welcome you back!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:46:00): Sekhmet is flanked by the Huckebein.
VJockey (17:46:06): "General. Please tell me you're going to beat him painfully."
Wyverncakes (17:46:17): * X-Rounder pressure kicks in as the wall comes smashing down... "So you're back again!" The AGE-1 jumps
cubey@aol.pl (17:46:18): "What...!" The fang slasher cuts into it - but then the Gebian General takes flight.
cubey@aol.pl (17:46:33): "No, not the third time! I won't be defeated here, as long as I draw breath!"
Wyverncakes (17:46:49): ^jumps up, waving its beam saber to swat the cables away before firing at the Araneonheir with his rifle!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:46:56): In desperation, she flies out of the bayonet's range - her wasp-like unit's body turning, and quickly firing a physical penetrating arrow at Kei. React!
tengusaur (17:46:57): Hetepheres: "Ridiculous. You do not even try to listen to me, do you?"
tengusaur (17:47:29): Hetepheres: "I will make you listen with my sword, Teremun!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:48:05): Teremun: "I listen to everything you say, even if so much of it is misplaced sentimental nonsense!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:48:31): With a single move of its hand, Emperor Scaraber orders the levies away. Almost like if Teremun had something in plan... and he does!
tormterra (17:48:43): * With no psychic powers to power the TK barrier, Kei has little to protect herself against an actual hit from the arrow. Instead she speeds forward, under it to move behind the Aposniper, ready to press the attack further. +
cubey@aol.pl (17:48:53): Willis shoots down one or two levies but the commander unit suddenly rushes him, and tries to lift Gespenst up above its head!
cubey@aol.pl (17:48:55): React.
tengusaur (17:49:01): # Willis
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:32): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:18): Khaldun: "Indeed I am. Your fighting abilities are nothing to be ashamed of, young man!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:49): The DODS Rifle shot hits Araeonheir's side, forcing the general unit to take a step back, damaged.
cubey@aol.pl (17:51:08): The strings were mostly intercepted. Mostly. As Khaldun takes a step back, he pulls on them - knocking the Gundam over!
Wyverncakes (17:51:21): Flit: "A-ah!"
tengusaur (17:52:07): * Hetepheres rushes forward, trying to bull-rush Teremun from the side, and then slice him with a claw. This at least will distract him. "Everything I ever said was sentimental nonsense to you. You show your real face, and how much you really care about the responsibility of a commander!" +
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:52): Kei rushes forward - and sees a flash moving through the air as another unit attacks Aposniper from behind!
griefgathering (17:52:56): Neptune: "You okay, kid?"
griefgathering (17:53:06): Said the one who looks like a kid.
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:12): Salwah: "Eeey!"
griefgathering (17:53:30): (Whoops, that was for Flit)
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:45): Arma Volnus slashes with its wicked curved blade, interrupting Nekhbet's attack and then stabbing her unit with heat spikes!
Wyverncakes (17:53:45): Flit: "I'll manage...!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:02): Nekhbet: "No... not again..."
Wyverncakes (17:54:03): He's already getting the Gundam to rise back to its feet...
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:25): She sounds genuinely depressed as the heavily damaged Aposniper flies higher and higher, away from the crazy land-dwelling Earthlings.
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:53): Monika: "Allow me to assist as well."
cubey@aol.pl (17:55:12): Arma Venus stands ready to fire again. The Nekhbet flank looks mostly collapsed, with only a few Guardians present.
Aero (17:57:10): * "You must be pretty desperate." As the Gespenst was lifted up both missile compartments on the skirt of the machine opened up and fired two split missiles at point blank range of the enemy Scaraber, unleashing a barrage of explosions at the Gebian. +
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:26): Teremun: "Wrong. I just know whatever you Earthlings throw at me, I can take!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:05): The Emperor Scaraber is bombarded by split missiles, its armor taking damage - but Teremun cares not. He throws the Gespenst at Hetepheres' Scaraber, knocking them both off-balance.
tormterra (17:59:11): Kei: "Got it."
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:27): Then, immediately after he charges, all four sickles drawn. They vibrate - and slice in a double X attack!
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:47): A series of explosions appears over Gespenst and the crab frame Scaraber. Both units are now heavily damaged...
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:04): Especially the Scaraber, as that's where most of Teremun's attack was aimed at!
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:14): Teremun: "I am sorry, Earthling. You were just a distraction."
Aero (18:00:16): Willis: "Dammit..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:29): Peola and Ken, go.
Aero (18:00:40): Willis: "That's pretty low...even for someone like you."
tengusaur (18:00:43): Hetepheres is shaken around in the cockpit. "Tch... Willis, disengage. Your mech cannot take much more damage than this."
Aero (18:00:59): Willis: "I'll be fine."
Aero (18:01:08): Willis: "You're not doing any better yourself Heph."
tengusaur (18:01:51): Hetepheres: "I am not done yet. There are more tricks left in my sleeve."
Aero (18:03:26): Wilis: "Then you might want to use them soon."
tengusaur (18:04:56): Hetepheres: "Trust me, I will."
VJockey (18:05:45): *Peola grins before rushing towards Khaldun, the Filia's foot slamming down especially hard on the last step to launch her forward with great force! The Machina holds its blade ready to thrust forward, its free hand beside it.&
Meraxa (18:05:45): (Enemy list?)
cubey@aol.pl (18:05:51): Monika: "Ah! Should I offer you some support? I will do my best, I promise you that!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:22): Enemy list: Emperor Scaraber (Teremun) (light damage), Araneonheir (Khaldun) (damaged), Aposniper (heavily damaged) (Nekhbet), Levies x70, Guardians x19 (1 damaged)
griefgathering (18:06:58): Neptune: "If ya need a hand, I'm here too! There's more I can do than just swing this sword around."
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:59): Ourania: "Your efforts are wasted, Ourania. Didn't you see what that overgrown beetle just did?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:07:09): Ourania: "He'd use you as another hostage, I'm sure. Wouldn't that be a sight!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:07:16): (Your efforts are wasted, Monika
cubey@aol.pl (18:07:45): Monika: "..." A discouraged sigh.
Aero (18:09:55): Willis: "Well just to be sure, the next time he tries something like that just...leave me. "
Meraxa (18:10:52): Ken: I'm going to bring it back! *Ken rushes for a nearby guardian, trying to knock it off its feet - and up into the sky at the Aposniper - with a series of swift kicks!+
tengusaur (18:10:53): Hetepheres: "Abandon an ally? I consider listening to this request only because I know you are very tough to kill."
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:17): Khaldun: "Ah, another young warrior seeks to challenge me? Come!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:59): Regalis Filia's charge is met with Khaldun standing his ground, waving his weapons around in an intricate pattern - before slamming them down one by one, without rhyme or reason to be more chaotic and thus harder to defend against!
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:01): React/continue
VJockey (18:13:16): "I'm just eager for the chance to fight you again!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:40): Khaldun: "Then you will get exactly what you hope for."
cubey@aol.pl (18:14:06): ScarleTiger knocks the Guardian down, and sends it flying into the sky!
cubey@aol.pl (18:14:33): Nekhbet is pretty high so you'd have to continue with moving up with the unit and providing further kicks (like it was Dragonball), but there's a slight complication...
cubey@aol.pl (18:14:59): Teremun: "Get out of there." The Guardians clear, as he changes equipped weapons to staves again - and sends a barrage of continuous laser beams!
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:10): Some of the beams threaten to burn ScarleTiger from behind.
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:14): The other half...
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:26): Monika: "Aah...!"
tengusaur (18:15:39): Hetepheres: "Behind you, Ken. Move!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:43): Her melodic voice sounds as she's the target of the attack, doing... nothing. Like a dear trapped in headlights.
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:46): *Deer
Wyverncakes (18:16:17): # Ken?
cubey@aol.pl (18:16:38): Approved.
VJockey (18:16:44): *Peola simply grits her teeth, a grin on her face as she did her best to counter every strike using the shield-like armor on Filia's arms as well as her own blade. Still. Khaldun had more arms than her... so at the risk of taking a hit.. the moment she sees an opening she follows through with a thrust! Firing a lance of ki through the blade at the Gebian General's machine!+
Wyverncakes (18:17:20): Flit: "Ken!"
tormterra (18:17:31): # Monica
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:35): Approved.
Wyverncakes (18:17:52): * Too far away and with the AGE lacking a designated defensive mode, Flit still throws his shield at the ScarleTiger so it can use that for extra protection!+
tormterra (18:18:51): * Seeing that the girl who'd just stopped an enemy attack getting trapped like that Kei tries to protect her the only way she really can with the Huckebein. Tackling her and pushing her out of the way of the attack. +
Meraxa (18:19:52): Ken: ...Thanks! *Ken grabs the shield as soon as he can, though he makes no small effort of trying to get out of the way regardless+
cubey@aol.pl (18:20:19): Peola's Filia is pummeled, sliced and stabbed. The shields can guard against the hits, but there are many of them and they are overwhelming.
cubey@aol.pl (18:20:36): Then, there's the opening! The thrust of ki sends Khaldun back.
cubey@aol.pl (18:20:54): His unit stumbles down near the ruins of the building he broke out of.
cubey@aol.pl (18:21:03): Both of you suffered heavy damage in this exchange. It was brutal.
cubey@aol.pl (18:21:10): Khaldun: "Ha... ha ha ha! Just like old times!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:21:23): Yet there he is, laughing in glee. Without bloodlust, but still clearly enjoying himself.
VJockey (18:21:29): "This kind of fight..."
VJockey (18:21:38): "its the greatest kind of high!"
Wyverncakes (18:21:39): Flit: "What's to enjoy about this...?!?"
Wyverncakes (18:21:47): "WHy are you laughing?!?"
Peter Kampschroeder (18:21:47): Jen: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:22:06): Khaldun: "Because... the best way to know a person is to exchange blows with them."
Wyverncakes (18:22:06): "Your fighting's killed people, too many peopl!"
Wyverncakes (18:22:08): ^people
griefgathering (18:22:31): Neptune: "Geh...looks like I've just run into crazies again."
cubey@aol.pl (18:22:32): Khaldun: "This is a war, and soldiers die on a war. It is unavoidable, and it is possible I will join them very soon."
cubey@aol.pl (18:22:44): Khaldun: "Civilians, I have never targetted. Not once in my life."
cubey@aol.pl (18:23:37): The laser barrage is tanked by Flit's shield - and Ken dodges the beams as they fly off into the air!
cubey@aol.pl (18:23:54): As for Monika...
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:10): ???: "Sorry it took so long. Here I come!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:23): Something sounds like... hooves stomping through the streets in a gallop?
VJockey (18:24:31): "Eh?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:48): As the beams fly, a mounted mechanical unit suddenly jumps towards them - grabbing Arma Venus and moving the two out of harm's way.
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:53): The beams singe Huckebein instead.
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:00): Regalis Eques
http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=349507
Peter Kampschroeder (18:25:13): Jen: "Oh, whoa."
griefgathering (18:25:20): Nep: "And a character save skit, right on time!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:20): Monika: "Phannuhel..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:29): She sounds enchanted.
VJockey (18:25:40): "Another Regalis type..? Who in the sun is that?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:24): Phannuhel: "It is too dangerous! I know you tried your best by fighting... but I do not want you to get hurt!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:26): http://s1282.photobucket.com/user/V-Jockey/media/Character%20Icons/Phannuhel_zps8eeb2dae.png.html
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:30): (Not a Negima)
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:23): Phannuhel: "Ourania, Salwah, Monika. It is alright, I'm here now."
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:29): Phannuhel: "Also..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:32): "Peola."
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:57): Phannuhel: "Please, come with me!"
VJockey (18:28:01): "....eh?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:13): Ourania: "Why? Having me is not enough?"
VJockey (18:28:14): [Peola raises an eyebrow.]
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:18): Salwah: "Phannuhel..."
tormterra (18:28:33): Kei: "So who is this guy? Another suitor?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:38): Phannuhel: "This place is incredibly dangerous. I do not mean this battlefield, but Earth as a whole."
VJockey (18:28:43): "I have no idea."
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:48): Phannuhel: "I ask you - let me defend you."
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:58): Phannuhel: "Let me be your knight on a white steed!"
VJockey (18:29:07): "......What."
griefgathering (18:29:11): Nep: "What?"
tengusaur (18:29:13): Hetepheres: "What a buffoon."
Meraxa (18:29:14): Ken: ...My bet is suitor.
VJockey (18:29:17): "I'm sorry... what."
Aero (18:29:31): Willis: "Why would anyone act like that?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:29:36): Salwah: "Hrmm... we don't really need her around..."
Peter Kampschroeder (18:29:45): Jen: "...I thought it was kind of cute..."
VJockey (18:30:21): "First of all. I like it here on Earth! Maybe its dangerous but there are good people here who need help and good friends I happen to want to fight beside."
tormterra (18:30:24): Kei: "This is the thing you think is too crazy?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:36): Phannuhel: "Please, I ask you to reconsider. One day, something horrible may happen to you."
VJockey (18:30:50): "I wasn't finished!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:31:19): Monika: "Don't... don't yell at him!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:31:23): Monika: "... please."
VJockey (18:31:29): "SECOND! I do a good job of defending myself! I don't need you storming on in here like you need to protect me!"
griefgathering (18:31:54): Nep: "I don't know what's going on here, but she has a point."
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:01): Phannuhel: "It's alright, Monika. But Peola is being stubborn. I think a little demonstration would show that she's incorrect."
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:09): Ourania: "I approve!"
VJockey (18:32:18): "..."
Meraxa (18:32:41): Ken: No! No demonstrations!
tengusaur (18:32:57): Hetepheres: "We are in the middle of a large battle. Your demonstration can wait for later."
VJockey (18:33:06): "In case you haven't noticed...WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF FIGHTING FOR THIS PLANET'S FUTURE!!!"
griefgathering (18:33:17): Nep: "Talk about the worst timing."
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:18): Phannuhel: "What about our planet's future?"
tormterra (18:33:24): Kei: "...Are you for real?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:34): Phannuhel: "You stubbornly refuse to accept a suitor. There will be no continuation of the royal line!"
Aero (18:33:40): Willis: "Our matters are a BIT more concerning right now."
VJockey (18:33:43): "My father's still got years on him and my brother will get better one day!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:49): Phannuhel: "You are just being selfish. I'm sorry but I will have to teach you a lesson."
VJockey (18:33:59): "Go get eaten by a fish!"
tormterra (18:34:25): Kei: "Just teach your lessons somewhere that isn't a warzone."
Peter Kampschroeder (18:34:29): Jen: "...Getting a little creepy there, Fannuel..."
griefgathering (18:34:54): Nep: "A lot creepy."
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:01): Phannuhel: "I'll defeat all the enemies present, if need to be. Please don't interfere, this is between me and Peola. If you will..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:13): Phannuhel: "I will count you among them. I'm sorry."
VJockey (18:35:28): "....."
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:36): Nep, Hetepheres, go now.
VJockey (18:35:47): [Peola lets out a venomous cuss in her own language.]
Meraxa (18:35:49): Ken: ...you realise this is the center of our global government, right?
cubey@aol.pl (18:36:24): The trio form around Phannuhel's unit, with varying reluctance.
Aero (18:36:34): Willis: "...not only that but you plan on making enemies just so you can get someone's hand in marriage . What do you think will happen if you keep making enemies?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:36:37): For Ourania, it's more like no reluctance.
tormterra (18:36:55): Kei: "You don't have restraining orders on your planet, do you?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:36:56): Ourania: "Oh please, do you really think he can't take both the bugs AND you guys on?"
Aero (18:37:07): Willis: "Kind of yeah."
Wyverncakes (18:37:12): Flit: "If you make things difficult for us, we'll fight you too."
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:17): New enemies: Regalis Eques (Phannuhel), Regalis Atrox (Ourania), Arma Volnus (Salwah), Arma Venus (Monika)
Wyverncakes (18:37:17): flitgameface.jpg
Meraxa (18:37:24): Ken: He's no ninja, so the rule doesn't work for him.
VJockey (18:37:28): "....If we did my father would have kept me from getting them"
tengusaur (18:37:29): Hetepheres: "Anyone who can, support Peola. But do not ignore the Anti Earthling Party completely."
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:38): Barriers change again - gold for Hetepheres and Teremun, silver for the rest.
Peter Kampschroeder (18:37:48): Jen: "...Oh, silver. I can work with silver."
VJockey (18:37:54): "I'm really sorry about this guys..."
griefgathering (18:38:00): Nep: "So they were hostiles after all! I should've known from all the yellow."
tormterra (18:38:23): Kei: "...Yellow?"
Meraxa (18:38:26): Ken: ...Yellow?
tengusaur (18:38:56): Hetepheres: "I have a fight to finish. Here I go..." Scaraber starts rushing forward, towards Emperor Scaraber... But suddenly it jumps upwards, disattaching the Crab Frame parts!
tengusaur (18:39:03): Hetepheres: "Now! Beetle Frame!"
Aero (18:39:04): Willis: "Snark later, let's just put these guys in their place."
VJockey (18:39:11): "General Khaldun. I'm sorry about the interruption. Maybe one day we'll have a chance to fight again."
VJockey (18:39:56): "stupid father. Stupid marriage. Stupid Ourania. Stupid idiot and the horse he rode on in."
griefgathering (18:40:22): Nep: "You know, that color around your map icons. Well, I guess you guys can't see it."
griefgathering (18:40:27): Nep: "Anyway!"
tengusaur (18:40:53): * A scarab-like glider flies through the air, smashing into King Scaraber and momentarily obscuring Teremun's vision of Scaraber. Where is Heph's unit now? As it turns out, right on top of the glider! And pointing its laser staff at the center of King Scaraber in point blank, the beam already charging!
tengusaur (18:41:07): Hetepheres: "I said I am not done yet!" The huge laser fires! +
cubey@aol.pl (18:41:08): Khaldun: "It looks like you have your own troubles right now."
VJockey (18:41:28): "Yes. Yes I do."
cubey@aol.pl (18:42:36): Teremun doesn't say anything. Rather, he is focused on dodging the giant beam!
cubey@aol.pl (18:42:55): This was a genuine surprise for him, and the place where the beam hits is covered by a dust cloud as well.
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:06): From the dust cloud, smaller laser beams fire at Hetepheres' direction!
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:20): Teremun: "So you have abandoned even the gifts of our past, Hetepheres. You are getting desperate!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:22): React.
Aero (18:43:32): #Heph
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:41): Approved.
tengusaur (18:44:56): Hetepheres: "You are not the only one fighting for the future of our people, Teremun." She quickly makes a backflip, the glider opening into Scarab Frame armor, which Scaraber equips mid-air - and then starts spinning its staff to deflect the beams. +
Aero (18:46:24): * "Slash Ripper" Even if he was still slightly trashed the remote weapons were still working and the last of which is deployed to join the other two. The bladed chakrams fly forward at the enemy Scaraber just to deflect the beams away from the Scaraber he wanted to protect. +
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:57): Teremun: "I will knock some sense into you, perhaps then your moods will..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:27): Teremun's beams are deflected - both by Willis, and what remains after by Hetepheres!
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:49): Also as an aftershock, some electricity surges on Emperor Scaraber's armor. As it leaves the cloud, you can see it was damaged by the beam.
cubey@aol.pl (18:48:05): (Jen, Willis, Flit, go)
tormterra (18:48:14): Kei: "One creep is more than enough."
tengusaur (18:48:44): Hetepheres: "They seem to attract each other."
tormterra (18:49:12): Kei: "Clearly."
griefgathering (18:49:40): Nep: *"Here we go! I'll help with the other creep!" She leaps up onto a nearby building, and starts hopping across rooftops before targeting the Regalis Eques. She doesn't approach it, though. Instead, she summons a blue energy sword that embeds itself into the ground near them, before exploding in a pillar-like fashion. Maybe that will split them up!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:51:04): Phannuhel: "That was close!" Eques jumps away, still mounted - though it lands less than gracefully. At the same time though...
Wyverncakes (18:51:12): Flit stares down the Araneonheir, beam saber and rifle in one hand each...
cubey@aol.pl (18:51:29): Ourania: "You intrigue me, but for now I need you to just disappear!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:51:53): Regalis Atrox summons a big globe of energy - which shatters into a billion of needles that all fly in Nep's direction.
Wyverncakes (18:52:00): "... Even if you're just fighting soldiers... you're getting in the way of me protecting people!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:52:09): Monika's Arma Venus also adds to the barrage with beam bolts, but these are actually easy to dodge and can be ignored.
cubey@aol.pl (18:52:09): React.
Peter Kampschroeder (18:52:22): *"Okay, so..." Jen looks around the intensely chaotic battlefield. Yeah, shit's fucked. Still! There are a number of commanders out and about. And Nekhbet is already seriously damaged. Cethlenn gets itself atop another building, then latches onto a further away one-using its grappling hook a la tarzan, Jen turns that fall into upward momentum, opening fire on the Aposniper as she rises...&
Wyverncakes (18:53:45): * The AGE-1 charges full-speed, firing at the (silver barrier'd, yes I know) Gebian machine as it... actually puts its beam saber away?&
Aero (18:53:45): * Willis' eyes start darting around, checking just to make sure that no other Gebian units would get in his way. The Slash Rippers are ordered back to the Gespenst and set to orbit around the machine. Even if he was heavily damaged, all of the machine's functions were still operational. As Teremun exits the cloud Willis chases after him, drawing one of the beam sabers from the forearm of the machine and slashing at Teremun's Scaraber with an upward cut. &
VJockey (18:53:56): #Nep?
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:00): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:28): Khaldun: "Nekhbet, watch out!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:23): As AGE-1 charges, Araneonheir's reaction is to deliver a freehanded haymaker blow to the head. And its weapons are already prepared to follow up with multiple swipes!
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:34): Continue/react, Flit!
VJockey (18:55:47): *Peola's going to quickly rush in, resheathing her sword and wrapping the weapon in her scarf. Nep's small and fast true, but she'd need as many openings ash she can get through that needle storm! So Peola offensively defends, swinging rapidly at the barrage!+
griefgathering (18:55:57): Neptune: *"Nepu?!" Against this, Nep suddenly casts something on herself. She looks troubled before that, but afterwards, her speed seems to increase dramatically. "I'm not due for a shot, so not...gonna...happen!" After taking to the air, she surges toward Ourania's unit with her blade poised. It's coated in Ice, and she swings at one of its limbs! "Ice Edge!"+
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:29): With Khaldun's warning, Nekhbet notices the approaching Cethlenn - the Aposniper jukes, dodging the shots, and strings several homing arrows. They are sent quickly flying, converging all on on point - the rising Jen and her unit! React/continue.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:26): Teremun: "Tenacious little...!" One of his staves deploys a beam blade again, and it swings down at Gespenst's saber, clashing with it.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:39): Other staves are already moving to the sides, ready to fire at point blank.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:43): Continue/react, Willis.
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:03): Peola blocks many of the needles, but Regalis Filia gets struck by the rest. Fortunately it was an attack meant to target a small enemy.
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:27): So the damage is also small - and Regalis Atrox is smitten by an icy attack from Nep-Nep!
Wyverncakes (19:00:30): * The AGE-1 stumbles back, falling to one knee and even dropping its beam rifle! But both of those were things he was planning on doing anyway! "Even if this isn't using the Titus parts, then..." While Khaldun tries to attack the AGE where it was, the machine's left arm is ejected off and Flit swings it around to smash into the Araneonheir's legs!+
Wyverncakes (19:00:46): Flit: "Vargas, prep the Starks parts, please!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:46): Ourania: "Ice? Ice to meet you... no, not at all!"
tengusaur (19:00:57): # TOT
VJockey (19:01:05): ".....Booooooo"
griefgathering (19:01:06): Nep: "That's in bad taste even for me, lady."
Peter Kampschroeder (19:01:17): *Cethlenn...can't actually control its movement in mid-air. Not without something to latch onto, at least-and for that, Jen picks no target other than Nekhbet. The grappling hooks arc out towards the Gebian unit, aiming for the places where Jen's rifle fire wasn't-and once one of them, any one of them, latches on Jen reels it in, pulling Cethlenn towards the Gebian unit-and through its oncoming arrows. Its nanobot cloud forms around one foot, extended in a kick, and ravenously attempts to devours all matter in its path-be it an arrow or an enemy mecha.+
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:20): The attacked limb moves with difficulties, covered by a freezing sheen.
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:23): Approved Heph
Peter Kampschroeder (19:01:40): Jen: "Work..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:03): Araneonheir is smacked across the legs. "Hmm? Not bad, but..."
tengusaur (19:03:09): Hetepheres: "Take advantage of your larger number of limbs... While you still have it!" Scaraber jumps forward, drawing all four of its khopeshes at once and wielding them backwards. Hetepheres tries to grab Teremun's arms with their opposite, hooked sides, and pull them aside. +
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:14): Thump! The blow knocks it off-balance and it lands on its back.
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:28): The eight spidery limbs immediately start flailing as Khaldun tries to right himself!
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:35): Khaldun: "Ahh, this is rather embarassing!"
Wyverncakes (19:04:24): Flit: "Stay down and I won't have to kill you."
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:44): Khaldun: "I cannot make any promises, I'm afraid."
cubey@aol.pl (19:05:42): Cethlenn flies through the air, doing its grappling hook thing again. The arcing arrows fly above it - but the closer-aiming one actually hits it straight!
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:06): That was dangerously close to the cockpit. Still, Jen moves closer, and sends a nanomachine kick into the Aposniper. The Aposniper that just about had enough!
Aero (19:06:13): * "Got you!" The beam saber is quickly turned off for a brief second before being reignited, bypassing the clash that would be caused by the two weapons. In fact, Willis even purposely boosts forward to impale his Gespenst's chest through the staff and onto the Scaraber's arm to prevent the machine from escaping. At the very same instance he slashes forward with the saber while drawing the mega beam rifle with the other and pressing it up against the chest of the machine. "You better hope your barrier switches soon." And then he pulls the trigger and holds onto it for as long as there was energy left in it's cartridges. +
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:19): Nekhbet: "The flight controls are failing... no, not another one!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:27): Both of the units are starting to fall now.
cubey@aol.pl (19:07:45): Scaraber's sword cuts into Gespenst's chest, causing it critical damage!
cubey@aol.pl (19:07:56): Teremun: "This is the end, time for a finishing hit!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:08): Which never comes, as Hetepheres holds the arms back.
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:25): "What?!" The beam rifle shoots at point blank instead, over and over and over.
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:47): Kei, Peola, Ken, go.
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:01): The two units fall off away from each other, each on its back, critically damaged.
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:13): The Gespenst can't really move anymore...
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:21): But the still-smoking Emperor Scaraber - can.
tormterra (19:09:28): (Enemy status?)
Peter Kampschroeder (19:09:32): Jen: "Got you!" She'll try to grapple away to safety, or at least not-crashing.
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:37): Teremun: "Congratulations... you did something I would never expect of an Earthling..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:41): The unit slowly stands up again.
cubey@aol.pl (19:10:16): Enemy list (AEP): Emperor Scaraber (Teremun) (heavy damage), Araneonheir (Khaldun) (heavy damage, knocked prone), Aposniper (falling) (Nekhbet), Levies x70, Guardians x19 (1 damaged)
cubey@aol.pl (19:10:53): Enemy list (Phannuhel's harem): Regalis Eques (Phannuhel), Regalis Atrox (Ourania) (arm frozen, damaged), Arma Volnus (Salwah), Arma Venus (Monika)
cubey@aol.pl (19:10:58): Teremun: "You made me angry!"
VJockey (19:11:02): "As damaged as Regalis Filia is... I won't even need to draw my sword to knock you off your high horse!"
tengusaur (19:11:37): Hetepheres: "Do not underestimate Earthlings. Soon you will be worse than just angry, High Commander Teremun."
VJockey (19:11:45): *Peola rushes towards Phannuhel, leaping upwards before bringing her sheathed blade down in a ki-powered meteoric hammerstrike!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:14): Phannuhel: "Hmm?"
Aero (19:12:19): Willis: "Good, hopefully I can make you surrender next."
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:25): His unit looks up, but...
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:27): Salwah: "No!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:39): Monika: "I must desist! Most certainly!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:11): Arma Volnus and Venus stand in front of the Eques, firing back-mounted cannons and more machinegun beams respectively!
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:13): React!
Meraxa (19:13:17): Ken: Got you! *Ken leaps up at the falling Aposniper, drawing his scarlet shotels. He intends to let gravity do half his work, striking to cleave upwards as the gebian unit falls...!+
tormterra (19:13:33): * With the AEP seemingly well in hand, Kei joined those fighting the creepy guy and his assorted allies. Quickly returning to the air after her crash following her failed attempt at saving one of them, she follows up on Peola's strike firing the fang slasher at the Regalis Eques, aiming to cut into it and entangle it, following up with a photon barrage. +
griefgathering (19:13:42): Nep: "It really is harem-level devotion!"
griefgathering (19:13:55): # Peola?
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:59): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:49): Nekhbet: "The last failure... my apologies, High Commander."
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:04): Aposniper is cleaved in half, and explodes. It doesn't even try to defend itself, being incapable of doing so.
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:28): Teremun: "General Nekhbet... you will be avenged."
griefgathering (19:15:57): Nep: *"But here's a better blessing!" With a wave of her hand, a circular aura will appear around Regalis Filia - applying the same effect that Nep had cast on herself earlier! The unit should be noticably faster and more durable now.+
VJockey (19:16:20): "This is..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:32): Phannuhel: "As xpected, Monika, Salwah! Hold her just for a bit, there's something I must do!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:02): Eques' lance opens - it too can enter cannon mode. Which it does, channeling and firing a beam that threatens to engulf both the fang slasher - and the damaged Huckebein that fired it!
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:24): React.
griefgathering (19:17:31): Nep: "Woah! Big beam! Big beam!"
tengusaur (19:17:37): Hetepheres: "Look at the rest of your minions around you, Teremun. You brought all of them to their deaths."
VJockey (19:18:06): *Peola grins brightly as the effect takes hold. Rather than continuing to bring down her blade... she throws it forward to crash with a tremendous impact between Salwah and Monika!...And following that - kick the Regalis Eques right in its knightly face!+
tormterra (19:19:15): * Kei immediately aborts her assault, flinging herself to the side over and above nearby buildings and continues to move in an erratic pattern to throw off Phannuhel's aim until he's forced to deal with somebody else. +
cubey@aol.pl (19:19:47): Regalis Eques continues its aiming, the beam chasing after the Huckebein. But then!
cubey@aol.pl (19:19:58): Salwah: "Tch...!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:20:03): Monika: "Kyaa!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:20:21): With the force of Neptune's blessing, Regalis Filia crashes between the two Armas, sending them flying to the sides.
cubey@aol.pl (19:20:47): Then the beam-shooting is cut short as the riding Machina is kicked in the face, and knocked off its high horse. Literally!
cubey@aol.pl (19:21:52): The units slowly stand up, damaged...
cubey@aol.pl (19:21:56): Suddenly - a message.
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:09): A message not everyone gets. In fact, most of the Unity Group combatants do not.
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:19): But Hetepheres does, and so do all the other Gebians.
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:25): The Grand Vote has ended.
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:33): A decision has been made.
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:45): Khaldun: "..."
tengusaur (19:22:51): Hetepheres: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:56): It has been decided that...
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:00): Teremun: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:13): Gebians shall cooperate with Earthlings as equals.
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:33): The Anti-Earthling's Party actions are no longer allowed.
Wyverncakes (19:23:35): That's good news.
tengusaur (19:23:52): Hetepheres: "...It is done. The Pro Earthling Party has won."
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:56): Khaldun: "Looks like you win this one, Hetepheres. Personally..."
Wyverncakes (19:23:58): Flit's still not letting his guard down though.
Aero (19:24:02): Willis: "Just in the nick of time..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:03): Khaldun: "I am relieved!"
Peter Kampschroeder (19:24:11): Jen: "Oh, so we win?"
Meraxa (19:24:24): Ken: Seems like it...
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:30): Teremun is quiet.
tengusaur (19:24:31): Hetepheres looks around slowly at the remaining Gebian forces.
VJockey (19:24:37): "...So that's it?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:37): Around him, the AEP forces lay down their arms.
tormterra (19:24:45): Kei: "Thank god."
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:49): Slowly, one by one, they are starting to raise to the skies and leave towards the transport ships.
Wyverncakes (19:25:00): Flit: "I hope they never show their faces here again."
griefgathering (19:25:04): Nep: "Whew."
VJockey (19:25:14): "...Glad it went well..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:17): Phannuhel: "Well, looks like I underestimated you. This is not over. Please rememer my offer, Peola!"
VJockey (19:25:25): ".........."
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:26): Ourania: "Buh-bye! See you soon."
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:31): Deliberately annoying tone of voice.
VJockey (19:25:32): "Hey Phannuhel."
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:37): The four are starting to retreat as well.
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:42): Phannuhel: "Yes?"
VJockey (19:25:51): "Let me give you the same message I gave when the last guy made me an offer to leave Earth!"
VJockey (19:25:56): [RUDE GESTURE.]
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:03): Phannuhel: "So stubborn..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:28): It looks like everyone's packing up their things and leaving.
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:34): And in the middle of it all, Emperor Scaraber.
tengusaur (19:26:39): Hetepheres: "Teremun. Wait."
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:40): Damaged but still able to move, yet Teremun moves not.
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:44): Teremun: "..."
tengusaur (19:27:01): Hetepheres: "You knew it all along, did you not? You knew that the AEP will not be able to win."
cubey@aol.pl (19:27:27): Teremun: "My attempt at conquest has failed. If it did not..."
tengusaur (19:28:33): Hetepheres: "Your attempt at conquest was dictated by your stubborn ambition! How many Earthlings died to fuel that ambition? How many Gebians?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:28:48): Teremun: "I had only the best interest of Geb in my mind!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:28:58): Teremun: "Geb's ideals... Geb's future..."
tengusaur (19:29:03): Hetepheres: "You only had your pride on your mind, as always!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:29:26): Teremun: "Calm yourself for a second and think about this rationally."
tengusaur (19:30:01): Hetepheres: "I am thinking rationally. Everything your AEP has accomplished was spread death and suffering. But it is over now. Now, we have created a new world."
Meraxa (19:30:08): Ken: Rational thinking would have said, 'Hey, let's talk to these people first! See what they're like!'
tengusaur (19:30:30): Hetepheres: "And this new world... is not big enough for both of you, Teremun."
tengusaur (19:30:36): *for both of us
cubey@aol.pl (19:30:43): Teremun: "No. No it isn't."
cubey@aol.pl (19:31:05): Teremun's Emperor Scaraber brandishes the sickles. They start to vibrate once again.
tengusaur (19:31:13): Scaraber widens its stance into a battle-ready one. It raises its blades.
cubey@aol.pl (19:31:13): Both the Scarabers' barriers are silver.
tormterra (19:31:24): Kei: "How is it rational to ruin another planet to conquer it when it is under attack from your enemies? You'd just make more enemies and need more resources."
VJockey (19:31:27): "General... do you want us to help?"
tengusaur (19:31:42): Hetepheres: "No. Not this time."
griefgathering (19:31:48): Nep: "Hey, hey, it's over right? Do you really have to?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:04): Teremun: "It is because it is over that this has to happen."
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:14): Teremun: "This future you have chosen, Hetepheres..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:20): Emperor Scaraber starts to walk forward.
Aero (19:32:26): Willis opens up the cockkpit of his busted PT to watch what was going on. "Heph..."
tengusaur (19:32:36): Hetepheres: "Usually I put the good of the people of Earth first and foremost. Just this one time... let it be personal."
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:40): Teremun: "I will prove how wrong it is!"
tengusaur (19:32:45): Scaraber springs into a run!
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:49): He charges, sickles raised!
Wyverncakes (19:32:51): Flit: "... Don't let him walk away from this."
Wyverncakes (19:32:56): "He doesn't deserve it."
tengusaur (19:33:04): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di45CbaAHek
cubey@aol.pl (19:33:08): Hetepheres, go!
tormterra (19:33:10): Kei: "And this is rational?"
tengusaur (19:34:28): * Hetepheres charges forward at an almost-blinding speed. As soon as she's close enough, she jumps upwards and spins in mid-air, slashing into Teremun's Emperor Scaraber with all four blades in quick succession! Then, she lands on the ground behind him... +
cubey@aol.pl (19:35:27): Not listening to a word of protest, Teremun slashes as well! In a flash, the blades stab into their opponent's armor.
cubey@aol.pl (19:36:04): Both the Scaraber and Emperor Scaraber are damaged, deep gashes appearing on their armor and electricity surging from internal damage dealt underneath.
cubey@aol.pl (19:36:25): Emperor Scaraber lands on the ground, Scaraber, behind it.
cubey@aol.pl (19:36:36): Teremun: "I see... I'm sorry."
cubey@aol.pl (19:36:52): Teremun: "I know you won't believe me, but all this time, I always loved you."
tengusaur (19:36:58): Hetepheres: "..."
tengusaur (19:37:11): Hetepheres: "...I do not think I ever did. Not for real."
cubey@aol.pl (19:37:34): Both Scarabers fall to the ground.
cubey@aol.pl (19:37:39): Emperor Scaraber explodes.
tengusaur (19:38:02): Scaraber lies motionlessly for a moment, electric currents crawling over it.
tengusaur (19:38:30): Then it starts moving. And slowly climbs up, on one knee.
tengusaur (19:38:51): And the other. The Gebian machine raises back to both feed, unsteadily.
cubey@aol.pl (19:39:09): With its leader dead and a decision made to act against its goal, the Anti-Earthling Party will be disbanded. A future of cooperation will form between Earth and Geb.
cubey@aol.pl (19:39:12): But...
cubey@aol.pl (19:39:14): At what cost?
cubey@aol.pl (19:39:17): MISSION COMPLETE
tengusaur (19:39:40): Hetepheres: "I do not know if an afterlife exists."
tengusaur (19:39:49): Hetepheres: "But if it does... Burn in hell, Teremun."
