cubey@aol.pl (17:15:46): The Ouroboros is afloat, and black domes are starting to spread around the globe. At this rate, this may be the end of the world...
cubey@aol.pl (17:15:53): But Commander Salomon Huffman has a plan.
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:12): Which is why you are currently on board the UG shuttle, which heads straight for Ouroboros.
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:39): The Biometal is surrounded by swarms of enemy robots, hopefully others will draw their attention long enough...
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:43): Also
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:04): There are two additions to the team, both carried by Walt's Genoace.
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:42): Huffman: "The domes appeared only after Ouroboros activated. It's not a stretch to wager its awakening is what caused them to return, hmm?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:49): Waltspawn: "... Yes."
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:57): The creature is sitting with Walt in his cockpit!
cubey@aol.pl (17:18:07): Though she(?) seems quite capable of normal speech now.
cubey@aol.pl (17:19:10): Waltspawn: "The other universe was probing this and gave up, but now it is releasing wrong waves."
cubey@aol.pl (17:19:28): Waltspawn: "The stain proved very difficult to deal, so it is going to remove it."
cubey@aol.pl (17:19:48): Waltspawn: "But this is a chance to get rid of the connection forever. All domes are connected, they are all one universe."
cubey@aol.pl (17:20:05): Waltspawn: "If we have an explosion big enough to blow them all up..."
drascin (17:20:08): Ashe: "Remove it"? What, are we a stubborn spot now?
cubey@aol.pl (17:20:48): Waltspawn: "Yes. For the other universe, this one is something strange and disgusting. Like gum stuck to a foot. Or a stain."
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:10): Huffman: "And this is why I quickly made a deal to obtain a very powerful explosive."
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:20): The explosive is currently carried on the Genoace's back.
tengusaur (17:21:29): Asagi: "Can't say I like to hear our world be called names like that..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:32): Its design may seem... a bit familiar for some of you.
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:49): Optimus and friends - isn't that powered by energon?
griefgathering (17:21:55): Nep: "I don't really get it, but if it helps fix everything, blow up whatever you need to!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:22:00): Huffman: "Fortunately a... certain arms dealer was available."
tengusaur (17:22:01): Asagi: "A deal?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:22:07): ( http://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/4/45/TF_Ongoing_issue_3_Swindle.jpg )
VJockey (17:22:13): Wheeljack: "Wait a nanosec... That design.."
drascin (17:22:25): Model A: That sounds sketchy
Ashe: That sounds really sketchy
drascin (17:22:51): Ashe seems determined. Model A is as visibly jittery as a floating trapezoid can be
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:04): Huffman: "Do not focus on insignificant details. The Ouroboros's flight is what caused the other universe to take critical action, so it makes sense one of the domes will appear on it, hmm?"
VJockey (17:23:07): Optimus:"... I will not ask how you were able to come across a Decepticon built explosive Commander Huffman. However I can vouch for its explosive power."
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:26): Shuttle pilot: "We're drawing in close."
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:35): Shuttle pilot: "This will be a one way insertion. Get ready!"
drascin (17:23:44): Model A: Albert's not going to take that well.
tengusaur (17:23:47): Asagi: "This is what we're relying on... It better work."
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:48): Wait, one way insertion? The shuttle looks like it's going to... crash into the Ouroboros!
cubey@aol.pl (17:23:56): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddyd8WxIOUY
drascin (17:24:00): Ashe: Well, no time for more pleasantries. Everyone hang on and get ready!
VJockey (17:25:20): Blaster: "Aww yeah! Lets blast out some beats!"
griefgathering (17:25:35): "Nepu?!" The goddess immediately braces!
tormterra (17:26:29): Kei: "Right." Kei braced herself for the impact, it was probably going to hurt regardless of any precautions they had
tengusaur (17:27:19): Asagi: "...I'm ready! Let's do this."
Fri Freeman (17:27:50): Walt: "I assume there's a reason why the explosive have to be on my back and not just shot at it using a cannon or giant catapult... other than general universe attempt to humiliate me or something if ciyrse,,,:
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:06): The whole shuttle starts to shake like crazy - and then comes the impact! It feels like it has been tumbled upside down, several times in the period of less than a second!
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:26): You can't tell what's up and what's down anymore, but a moment (which feels like an eternity) later, the quakes stop.
drascin (17:28:32): Ashe: ...ow
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:48): Pilot: "Is everyone alright? This doesn't become any less rough even after a second time!"
drascin (17:29:06): Ashe: I've had better landings, but I'm okay!
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:06): For some reason whenever a shuttle needs to do acrobatics, it's always this guy at the controls...
tengusaur (17:29:16): Asagi grabs his stomach. "That was rougher than expected..."
tormterra (17:29:45): Kei: "Yeah...Let's hope we don't have to do that again."
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:48): The doors open... or rather, fall off. The shuttle is in a sorry state.
griefgathering (17:29:49): Nep: "Uuugh. My breakfast is trying to escape..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:30:03): Pilot: "The shuttle is no longer operational. Good luck."
tengusaur (17:30:18): Asagi: "How are you going to return?"
drascin (17:30:27): Ashe: Good luck to you too. Do you have a plan to go back?
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:06): Pilot: "Don't worry about my situation. I have experience staying alive. The rest is up to you now."
drascin (17:31:34): Ashe cocks her guns and jumps out
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:38): Better hurry because the outside of the shuttle...
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:44): Is both weird and unpleasant.
tormterra (17:31:48): Kei: "Understood...Take care, this thing will probably explode if we win."
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:58): The interior of Ouroboros is biomechanical - seems alive.
tengusaur (17:32:17): Asagi: "Alright then. Let's go. This operation is kinda crucial, we can't afford to fail it." Blue One launches into the insides of Ouroboros, whatever lies there.
cubey@aol.pl (17:32:23): And definitely not friendly. You can see tentacles coming out of the walls and trying to reach the new arrivals - including parts of the shuttle which left a huge hole in the wall.
griefgathering (17:32:37): Nep takes some time to leave an item for the pilot.
drascin (17:32:46): Ashe: Alright guys, this is it. One last stretch and we send Albert packing.
Model A: ...this place is creepy...
griefgathering (17:32:54): Of the same kind she gave to Izuru some time before.
tormterra (17:33:35): Purple-2 quickly followed Blue-1 in exploring the decidedly creepy interior that they were entering. "Just what are these things?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:33:51): Waltspawn: "The dome is not here yet. I am not one with the other universe, so I can't talk to it or know what it wants to do."
cubey@aol.pl (17:33:59): Waltspawn: "But I know that much."
drascin (17:34:12): Ashe: We're inside some kind of monster biometal that feeds on souls. Honestly, the spikes and tentacles are kind of expected
VJockey (17:34:20): Blaster: "... Definitely don't want to stay close to the walls here. Seen too many things on the internet to know where that'd go."
drascin (17:34:24): Ashe still makes a point of staying well cleear, though
drascin (17:34:28): ugh
tengusaur (17:34:31): Asagi: "Gweh. The robots Albert used before looked decidedly less... wrong."
cubey@aol.pl (17:34:40): ???: "What are they? Just agents that will take a part in the world's restoration."
drascin (17:34:47): Ashe: ...!
tengusaur (17:34:54): Asagi: "Who's that!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:00): Someone teleports in front of you.
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:04): It's Master Albert.
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:05): http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/f/f3/Truealbertyo2.png/revision/latest?cb=20080425211323
VJockey (17:35:16): Optimus: "Albert. Enough! This madness ends here!"
drascin (17:35:32): Ashe: He stole my line! But, what he said!
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:34): Albert: "Madness? Thanks to Ouroboros, the flawed world will be restored. Resetted to a pristine state."
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:43): Albert: "You should be grateful to me, as its creator."
tormterra (17:35:52): Kei: "I know, but some kind of..." Her voice trailed off as Albert appeared. "And what kind of state is that?"
drascin (17:36:00): Model A: Grateful?! Are you nuts?!
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:14): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYt_OgNN__w
drascin (17:36:16): Ashe: Of course he's nuts, Model A!
tengusaur (17:36:18): Asagi: "Why'd we be grateful to a man who wants to destroy all of humanity!"
griefgathering (17:36:34): Nep: "Your... thing's full of tentacles, there's nothing pristine about that!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:50): Albert: "The way the world and humanity are now... has no future."
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:56): Albert: "Is it not better to start anew?"
VJockey (17:37:05): Optimus: "A pristine world built on the corpses of countless millions is meaningless."
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:20): Albert: "Regardless, I know you are not here to talk."
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:48): Albert: "Such is the brute way of those who oppose progress." He glances at the shuttle behind you.
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:16): Albert: "I however am a man of progress, which I will demonstrate. Do you know what the 'A' in A-Trans stands for?"
drascin (17:38:40): Ashe: ...what are you talking about?
tengusaur (17:38:48): Asagi: "Progress... Resetting everything is no progress."
drascin (17:38:50): Model A: Ashe, just waste him already!
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:53): Albert: "It stands for Albert. I should know, being its inventor."
cubey@aol.pl (17:39:01): Albert: "Now, witness its true potential!"
drascin (17:39:27): Ashe: Model... Albert?
Model A: Shut up! I hate that name!
cubey@aol.pl (17:39:29): His body lifts up into the air - he'd raise his arms if not for the straightjacket.
cubey@aol.pl (17:39:48): In front of you, circles of light appear, and inside them pieces of metal start to gather and form shapes
cubey@aol.pl (17:39:59): Shapes... of Pseudoroids!
VJockey (17:40:11): Optimus: "On your guard everyone!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:12): Pseudoroids you know, because you defeated them.
tengusaur (17:40:22): Asagi: "Then does that mean Ashe's invisible helper is... Okay, nevermind! Hostiles incoming!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:26): Vulturon: "Oh yeah! Time for a death metal encore!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:42): Buckfire: "You... strong. But this the end!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:53): Argoyle: "So we meet again."
drascin (17:40:55): Ashe: ...what kind of A-Trans is that?!
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:59): Ugoyle: "... Mmm!"
tormterra (17:41:21): Kei: "They remember us too...Did he actually resurrect them?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:26): Albert: "This is the real potential of A-Trans. Now, don't disappoint me!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:33): Albert disappears, leaving the enemies behind.
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:40): Buckfire the Gaxelleroid

drascin (17:41:44): Ashe: Look alive, everyone!
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:46): Initiative: Ashe, Walt, Asagi, Kei, Neptune, Optimus
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:49): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go!
tengusaur (17:41:53): Asagi: "Either that, or he made new bodies for them and tranferred their memories to them!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:27): Chronoforce: "The time for violence is now. Witness the flow of fate before it mangles you!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:44): Bifrost: "You will be obliterated! Broken!"
VJockey (17:43:53): Wheeljack: "Hey, with any luck they're easier the second time around!"
tengusaur (17:44:25): Asagi: "I'll focus on the larger enemies. Kei, send me the data from previous fights with them?" While talking, he directs Blue One to fly by the wall, firing several missiles at Bifrost and then following up with a long burst from his heavy machinegun as he does so.+
tormterra (17:44:41): Kei: "Will do. Give me a second."
cubey@aol.pl (17:45:18): Bifrost opens its jaws, using them to create a physical shield to absorb the attack! Also its icy teeth shoot out, flying as projectiles. Asagi, react.
drascin (17:45:41): Ashe: Everyone, pick your targets and go!
drascin (17:45:42): *And like she says, Ashe doesn't waste a moment, jumping at Buckfire in Aeolus shape, a sudden blur of lightning-crackling wind diving in to put the kicking pseudoroid in uncomfortable close quarters+
Fri Freeman (17:46:06): Walt: "What efficient characterizations."
cubey@aol.pl (17:46:33): Buckfire: "Your tricks. Defeated by Buckfire's might, will be!"
tengusaur (17:47:10): Asagi: "I see focused strikes will be needed here!" He quickly draws his katana, dodging to the side and swinging it wide to cut at whatever icy missiles might still be coming his way! +
cubey@aol.pl (17:47:31): As Ashe leaps at Buckfire, the vaguely racist robot shoots out hooks on its arms. They fly towards her, circling like tomahawks used by a certain super robot. React!
Fri Freeman (17:47:50): Walt: "Team, as much I hate to be thought as important, make a wall around me so I don't get downed before the time I have to blow the bomb strapped on my back myself or something. Follow Asagi's lead and fire at the shark guy!"
tengusaur (17:48:08): Asagi: "Crocodile."
Fri Freeman (17:48:11): Walt's team make a formation centered on Walt and follow Asagi's lead by shooting laser beams toward Bifrost.+
drascin (17:48:17): Ashe: Predictable!
cubey@aol.pl (17:48:37): Asagi evades the icycles and cuts down those that are still close to him. However, the shield is effective and damage is minimal. It has to be circumvented to deal any damage that counts!
Fri Freeman (17:49:18): Walt: "Sorry that they didn't look like the animals I used to learned at kindergarten!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:51): (Is Walt's team trying to flank the enemy to avoid the shield, or something similar?)
griefgathering (17:49:56): Nep: "Iunno, I mean, it looks like a dinosaur to me..."
Fri Freeman (17:50:18): (Nah, they're just shooting at it now)
drascin (17:50:30): *as the boomerangs close on her, Ashe twirls on herself, and mid-spin, using the momentum, becomes Thetis in mid-flight, a spinning trail of ice spreading around his weapon and forming a barriera round the flying Mega Man, which aims at landing on Buckfire as a gelid drill!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:54): The shield still holds! Also... suddenly holes open up under the Genoace team's feet. Underneath you see chomping robotic maws!
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:56): React!
tengusaur (17:51:14): Asagi: "Watch out!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:09): Buckfire seems surprised by the change, and the barrier blocks his attacks - while at the same tim ehe is vulnerable, and attacked by the icy strike for great effect!
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:19): Buckfire: "Strong...!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:25): He is thrown back, heavily damaged.
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:31): Buckfire: "Strong... for girl..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:49): Kei, Nep, Optimus can also go.
drascin (17:53:02): Ashe: You have no idea, bucko! My name is Ashe! Your boss wants to find the best Mega Man, well, you're looking at her right now!
Fri Freeman (17:54:23): The genoace team fire their thruster and jump around, their formation is a bit scattered now though.+
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:45): Bifrost: "Ha ha ha! A mega man king will come. You are not him."
cubey@aol.pl (17:55:08): The crocodile laughs as the mobile suits scatter to evade the sudden toothy traps, Bifrost himself unharmed.
VJockey (17:55:24): Wheeljack: "King this snout for brains!"
tormterra (17:55:48): * "Optimus, try to have the autobots draw the attention of the bee robot so that it doesn't send out reinforcements to interefere with the rest of us. I'll send data on the activities on other enemies to help you avoid getting overwhelmed. Nep, use your small size to slip between them and target the vulture robot before it gets anything it can revive. I'm charting a path between the crocodile and the gazelle that should be open while they're distracted." +
VJockey (17:56:38): *Wheeljack fires off one of those trick rockets of his at Bifrost, specifically the kind that would make it really difficult for any kind of mechanical being to retain a steady footing. Meanwhile, Optimus and Blaster open fire on Vulturon!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:57:26): Bifrost: "What is this?!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:02): The missile explodes in Bifrost's face - but the pseudoroid feels its ill effects. In fury, it spits out several spiked wheels that run on the ground, in Wheeljack's direction!
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:54): Vulturon: "Scraaw! I'll axe you a question, why not hear my dirge of your despair?!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:27): Vulturon is forced off air by the two firing - pinned to the ground, he regardless charges and tries to smash his guitar down on Optimus' head!
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:28): React.
griefgathering (18:00:04): *"Aye-aye!" Nep will do as Kei instructed. Target Vulturon it is. She approaches on foot as quickly as she can and leaps up for an overhead slash that releases a vertical blade wave! "Dual Edge!"+
griefgathering (18:00:25): (combining action with kei action for simplicity)
VJockey (18:01:13): "We'll take care of it as soon as we are able Kei!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:01:35): Vulturon: "Aak? This sensation is too close for me!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:13): Seeing Neptune attack, the bird robot does two things. First, it unleashes a screech - a sonic blast! Second, it starts to gradually disappear, becoming transparent in preparation for a teleport.
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:14): React.
VJockey (18:02:43): *Wheeljack takes to the air by the power of his arm mounted rockets to avoid the attacks! As for Optimus, he moves in to attack Vulturon with an axe of his own in tandem with Neptune's own assault!+
griefgathering (18:05:02): *"Whoa-!" As soon as she touches down, Nep changes direction and dashes sideways to try to avoid the sonic wave. She also needs to mind those mouths that might appear out of nowhere...+
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:15): Vulturon forces Nep to evade, and teleports to resume his attack... only for a much larger axe to chop down on his body, damaging it significantly!
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:26): Vulturon: "Caaaaaw!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:41): Wheeljack evades the ground-based projectiles in the most reliable way.
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:46): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go.
griefgathering (18:06:57): Nep: "Good going!"
VJockey (18:09:01): Optimus: "You did quite well yourself."
drascin (18:09:33): *Ashe already had Buckfire on the defensive, so she's going to press the advantage, dashing forward as her previous attack pushes him back and turning into Atlas - and begining to unleash a brutal series of earthquake-grade punches at his chest, one after another, finishing with an attempt at slamming him against the wall with a massive final strike+
tengusaur (18:09:39): Asagi: "Now it's my turn." Blue One quickly raises high towards the ceiling in a single leap, draws its spear at the apex of the jump, then descends down on Bifrost's back, stabbing into the ice crocodile's back with the polearm with great force! After that, Asagi removes the spear, and repeats the strike! +
cubey@aol.pl (18:10:26): Bifrost is too clumsy to evade the spear - it tries to raise up its mouth, but suddenly its legs fail it and it tumbles down!
cubey@aol.pl (18:10:36): Bifrost: "No... weak! I have become...!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:11:11): Buckfire: "The world's order... is in danger!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:11:22): Both Ashe and Asagi witness their enemies exploding.
cubey@aol.pl (18:11:53): Suddenly!
tengusaur (18:12:04): Asagi: "Bifrost down!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:24): Queenbee: "From this destruction future will bloom. My wings will carry you there!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:49): The bee-like pseudoroid speaks up for the first time, as she sends a swarm of exploding bees in Blue One's and Ashe-Atlas's direction! BEES!
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:51): React, both of you.
VJockey (18:12:57): #Both
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:01): Approved.
VJockey (18:13:44): Optimus: "Blaster!"
drascin (18:14:19): *Bees are not good. Explosive bees, even less so. So taking advantage of her already being in an artillery form, Ashe is going to turn around, brace herself, and begin a rapidfire artillery barrage with Atlas's dual cannons into the oncoming swarm+
Fri Freeman (18:14:20): Walt: "Hey Vulturon. I bet you're axing question about your future in the business. Well, you could keep hawking your music, but I don't think you have good vuture for it. But if you just keep calm and carrionhaha please kill me.. Just shoot that damn bird team, please." Walt fire rapid shots toward Vulturon, spraying fire everywhere, followed by his team.+
tengusaur (18:14:21): Asagi: "Why did it have to be bees..." Blue One jumps away, spinning its spear in an attempt to knock any bees still incoming out of the way. +
VJockey (18:14:41): *The Communications expert in question quickly transforms and begins to blast out music towards the incoming bees - seeking to scramble whatever passes for guidance systems on them!+
VJockey (18:14:47): ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73dc1D8YHBg )
griefgathering (18:15:06): Nep: "I don't have words for how terrible that was."
drascin (18:15:33): you can tell Model A is kinda shaken by the fact he didn't even graon
VJockey (18:15:33): Blaster: "Maybe he should learn to Beehave himself. Then again he's beeing himself though!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:37): Vulturon: "Stop. Stop! This sensation... it will be your megadeath!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:16:13): The vulture rocks out while headbanging, trying to create a sonic barrier that grows stronger with every strum. The shots start to penetrate it, but for how long?
cubey@aol.pl (18:16:17): React/continue, Walt!
cubey@aol.pl (18:16:37): Also Vulturon would probably have a say regarding that sonic attack on the bees, but he's on defensive so the bees are being scrambled.
Fri Freeman (18:16:40): Walt: "Keep your pressure, team!" And the 8th genoace team keep firinga s fast s they could+
tengusaur (18:17:07): Asagi: "...Please stop with the puns."
tormterra (18:17:17): Kei: "...Really outdated ones too."
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:19): The Atlas barrage shoots through the swarm of bees, and damages their queen as well!
Fri Freeman (18:17:19): Walt: "He started it."
griefgathering (18:17:23): Nep: "My poor cute little head..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:45): Vulturon: "This is my final requiem! I am under pressure! Don't stop me now!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:56): The beams pierce through the barrier - and the Pseudoroid as well.
cubey@aol.pl (18:18:17): Vulturon: "And I will! Always... HATE you!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:18:19): He explodes.
cubey@aol.pl (18:18:30): Kei, Neptune, Optimus, go.
griefgathering (18:19:28): Nep: "One more down! That leaves..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:19:41): Chronoforce: "Heh. The weak perish first, as it always has been."
cubey@aol.pl (18:19:58): Queenbee and Chronoforce are on the battlefield, as well as...
cubey@aol.pl (18:20:05): Actually, the Shisaroids have disappeared off to somewhere.
cubey@aol.pl (18:20:08): Probably setting up a trap.
tormterra (18:20:47): * "The bee and the three that I don't even know what animals are...We've got numbers on them. Asagi, follow up on your attack to strike at the one that just spoke now that his flank is unguarded. Genoace team, support him by firing from the front to limit its movements and ability to dodge or otherwise protect itself." +
tengusaur (18:22:37): Asagi: "Roger that. At least this one isn't punning." Blue One rushes towards Chronoforce, flying right above the ground, and then jumps up, slashing with its katana with a rising strike at the crab-like robot's flank and its underbelly! +
Fri Freeman (18:24:23): Walt: "Roger!" Walt's team hold their position and suppress the target appointed by Kei.+
VJockey (18:24:29): *Missing are they? Well Blaster's going to tune that music he had going into sonar! The moment he has a bead on them Optimus and Wheeljack will lay down some fire!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:17): Chronoforce: "Heh heh... No matter what you do, time is merciless!"
griefgathering (18:25:45): "In that case, I'll go for the bee! Thunder Edge!" *It's pretty hard to decide where to attack with an enemy that looks like Queenbee, but Nep performs another wide swing of her blade, sending out a wave of lightning in the robot's general direction!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:46): As Asagi and Walt's team approach - your electronic systems are being disrupted, and your units' reaction times are more sluggish!
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:15): Chronoforce is damaged by the sword, but it turns around clockwise - creating icy spikes around itself, which it shoots at the lot of you!
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:19): Both Asagi and Walt, react.
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:12): Queenbee: "The hive's fury... ahh! Upon you!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:40): The bee is hit by the electric attack, and quickly counters - its stinger aiming towards Nep, and charging up as a massive cannon beam is prepared to fire.
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:45): React!
tengusaur (18:27:55): Asagi: "He's scrambling my systems!" He jumps back and swings the katana wide, trying to deflect the incoming spikes. The barrier will have to take care of the rest of them. +
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:28): The enemy is... above you?!
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:39): Blaster notices Argoyle above, and so do the others.
griefgathering (18:28:45): Nep: "The weapon shows itself! Let's rock!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:53): Argoyle: "Our teamwork has improved!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:29:19): The shisaroid throws down a rock-like bomb and instantly leaps to the side to avoid the shots. The bomb... flies towards the floor, from which bursts out Ugoyle and kicks it towards Optimus' back!
cubey@aol.pl (18:29:20): React.
griefgathering (18:30:19): *A burst of magenta colored energy signals Nep's transformation. Purple Heart blasts out of the energy pillar and swerves to give the cannon a harder time to aim, but she approaches it nontheless, unleashing a barrage of sword strikes!+
griefgathering (18:30:28): Purple Heart: "Cross...Combination!"
drascin (18:30:39): #Optimus
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:42): Approved
cubey@aol.pl (18:31:41): The cannon starts firing off a burning shot!
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:09): However, Purple Heart mercilessly assaults the damaged Pseudoroid while mostly evading its attack. It feels very hot... but the enemy explodes again!
drascin (18:32:12): *Suddenly, a purple shape bursts in from the side, skating at high speed - Argoyle? But Argoyle is up - and suddenly this new Argoyle kicks the rock sideways - where a phantom Urgoyle is waiting to kick it again at full force and send it back to sender!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:14): Queenbee is done for.
Fri Freeman (18:32:30): Walt: "Damnit, we don't need a debuff, we're already weak by our own!" Since their sluggish movement is even more sluggish now, Walt's taem can only rase their shield for cover as they try to dodge with however slow dodge they can do right now/+
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:32): The icycles strike through your barriers - Asagi manages to cut them down, but the others make holes in the genoaces' physical shields and hit the units behind them, before quickly returning.
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:38): If you tried to dodge instead, it'd be bad.
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:54): Well, the Genoaces are damaged so it's bad regardless...
griefgathering (18:33:58): Purple Heart: "Ow...that burned more than I expected it to..."
VJockey (18:36:26): *Seeking to avoid the initial blow by transforming, Optimus quickly drives away to build up speed before launching himself upwards at the soon to be crashing into each other Pseudoroids! Death via bumper!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:06): Argoyle: "... What?!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:11): Ugoyle: "Copycat..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:42): The bomb is kicked away from Optimus - back towards Argoyle. It explodes at point blank, making the Shisaroid fall down - where it's promptly ran over by Optimus.
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:13): Argoyle: "You..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:28): The Shisaroid tries to stand up, and does so but not without difficulty
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:33): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go!
drascin (18:38:58): Ashe: Oh, I'm more than a copycat.
tengusaur (18:39:27): (are only the Shisaroids left?)
cubey@aol.pl (18:39:50): (No, also the Chronoforce)
drascin (18:40:03): *And with that, the speeding Argoyle is going to run skates-first into the other Argoyle's face in a flying kick - that is followed with a turn, a flash, and suddenly Mega Man A unleashes a volley of lightning that macrosses and converges on the Shisharoid+
cubey@aol.pl (18:40:48): Argoyle is too slow to act!
cubey@aol.pl (18:40:50): ... However
cubey@aol.pl (18:41:22): An eye opens on a biomechanical wall, firing a laser from its pupil before closing! The beam is aimed at you, Ashe, possibly to disrupt the attack. React!
drascin (18:41:55): Model A: Ashe, look out! On your left!
Ashe: Whoa!
tengusaur (18:42:24): *Asagi rushes towards Chronoforce again, brandishing Blue One's katana... But this time he has a different plan. He swings the blade upwards, trying to knock the crab robot's shell up, then holds it up with an arm, while stabbing with the sword at its belly at the same time! +
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:06): Chronoforce: "Heh... ha ha!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:21): The horseshoe crab robot tries to slam Asagi with its tail to stop this attack!
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:21): React.
drascin (18:44:01): *Ashe is going to jump back, still trying to keep her bead on Argoyle as she does so - the lightning is seeking, after all+
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:06): The beam nicks Ashe, throwing her off balance and to the ground!
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:19): However, the lightning is homing, and seeks its target perfectly.
tengusaur (18:45:24): Asagi: "Don't underestimate me!" He redirects his attack at the incoming tail, trying to stab right into it and pin in to the rest of the robot's body! +
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:29): Argoyle: "It was not as good... as we thought..."
griefgathering (18:45:42): Purple Heart: "Ah...!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:45): Both him and Ugoyle fall to the ground, smoking, their circuits overpowered.
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:01): Apparently the two shared life force, or something similar...
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:23): Chronoforce: "You cannot stop the flow of time!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:30): "Ha... ha ha ha!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:54): The pseudoroid's tail is stabbed through - Asagi holds it tight, and exposes the enemy's vulnerable underside by holding it as well.
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:00): The only thing left now is to finish it.
Fri Freeman (18:53:27): Walt: "Well, thank you for the meal!" Walt uses the chance to shoot the pseudoroid's vulnerable underside!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:20): Chronoforce: "I cannot... stop.... all will be swallowed by the new era, its tidal wave... ha!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:29): The genoace destroys the enemy.
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:32): That's the last one of them!
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:40): Waltspawn: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:43): Waltspawn: "Run."
cubey@aol.pl (18:54:55): Suddenly the corridor behind you closes violently.
VJockey (18:55:04): Optimus: "What-?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:06): Two masses of biometal from above and below.
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:12): They form - spiked rolling crushers.
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:17): That are quickly going your way.
cubey@aol.pl (18:55:27): Waltspawn: "Go, forward."
drascin (18:55:32): Ashe: Optimus, if there's one thing you learn as a ruin hunter, is that when someone shouts run, first you run and THEN you ask!
tormterra (18:55:42): Kei: "You heard them, move." Purple-2 is already on the move down the corridor
drascin (18:55:43): Yeah, Ashe is already running
griefgathering (18:56:12): Purple Heart: "Good grief..."
drascin (18:56:15): Ashe: I'm getting the feeling we're not welcome here though!
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:15): Waltspawn: "It's coming."
griefgathering (18:56:16): Time to boost away.
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:25): You flee, but the rollers are coming in close!
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:32): And the corridor in front of you has a turn.
VJockey (18:56:35): [Well there's only one thing to do. Transform and roll out! Wheeljack quickly makes sure to grab Blaster on the way!]
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:43): As you turn it, going deeper towards the Ouroboros' heart...
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:48): YOu see another pair of rollers in front of you.
cubey@aol.pl (18:56:54): The escape route is blocked off!
drascin (18:57:03): Ashe: Figures.
cubey@aol.pl (18:57:13): Waltspawn: "It's here."
cubey@aol.pl (18:57:13): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZdvgOn_Io4
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:26): A black dome suddenly appears behind you.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:36): The rollers run into it, but do not emerge on the other side.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:45): It engulfs everything it touches, Biometal being no exception.
tormterra (18:58:56): Kei: "So what do we need to do for you here?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:59): After a few seconds, the rollers on the other side also disappear.
cubey@aol.pl (18:59:23): Waltspawn: "Here. We must... enter the dome."
cubey@aol.pl (18:59:30): Waltspawn: "Blow up your bomb inside."
tormterra (18:59:40): Kei: "...Nothing has managed to leave before, do you know we can get out?
griefgathering (18:59:57): Purple Heart: "That is one bad end I'd rather avoid as well."
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:00): Waltspawn: "Yes."
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:06): Waltspawn: "We can get in and out safely."
drascin (19:00:16): Ashe: Well, you heard the lady. In we go!
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:18): She points at the pilot of the genoace, poking the back of Walt's head.
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:26): Waltspawn: "You can see it."
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:30): Waltspawn: "You can see the path."
Fri Freeman (19:01:27): Walt: "Well, yeah, you don't ahve to poke me. It's not like I'm blind, you know?"
VJockey (19:01:44): Optimus: "Walt. Our lives are in your capable hands."
Fri Freeman (19:01:55): Walt: "Well, thank you for the pressure, Sir."
Fri Freeman (19:02:18): Walt lead the way. The way he picks seems to be no difference than any other way, really.
cubey@aol.pl (19:02:35): Somehow, the Genoace is able to enter the dome without being destroyed.
drascin (19:02:51): Ashe is second in line, as fearless as ever. She's worried about worse things than simply getting killed
cubey@aol.pl (19:02:56): For Walt, the path to take is obvious.
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:31): The inside is however much larger than what it appears from the outside.
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:39): You can see the Ouroboros' walls, but they seem distant, muddled.
tormterra (19:03:41): Kei moves along as well. It wasn't really more insane than going to the Kijin world had been
cubey@aol.pl (19:03:58): The black dome seems... empty.
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:07): Waltspawn: "Here."
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:18): As the Genoace takes another step, suddenly you have a feeling this is it.
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:27): This is where you have to detonate the energon bomb.
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:48): The Waltspawn waits not for your reactions, her hand reaches out forward and just opens the mobile suit's cockpit.
cubey@aol.pl (19:05:18): Waltspawn: "This is where we are. The bomb will blow up here, but..."
drascin (19:05:32): Ashe: ...where's the welcome commitee?
Model A: Yeah, I doubt these guys are just going to let us do that, right?
Fri Freeman (19:05:42): "Walt: Of course there's complication. Do we have to sacrifice some puppies first?"
Fri Freeman (19:05:52): Walt: "
cubey@aol.pl (19:05:54): Waltspawn: "To seperate the other universe and this I need to make it that way. And also, the other universe won't know we are doing."
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:03): Waltspawn: "It isn't happy we are here."
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:18): She jumps down, visibly slowing mid-air.
cubey@aol.pl (19:06:48): And moves towards the bomb on the Genoace's back. All that is left is to activate it, and wait for your helper to do her thing.
tormterra (19:06:49): Kei: "Is this place actually sentient? It sounds like you're saying it is."
cubey@aol.pl (19:07:10): Waltspawn: "The whole of other universe is one sentience. One universe, one being. Unlike yours."
drascin (19:07:28): Ashe: That sounds gross. Um, no offense.
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:16): ???#1: "What a load! That's one boring universe to be in."
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:32): ???#2: "No humans, no sentience but one... it lives in harmony, right?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:08:56): Suddenly, four humanoid figures approach you through the darkness.
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:01): They followed the same path as you did!
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:10): Aeolus

drascin (19:09:14): Ashe: ...what are you guys doing here?!
griefgathering (19:09:16): Purple Heart: "We have company...!"
drascin (19:09:29): Model A: How did these guys even get in?!
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:36): Aeolus: "We meet again. Ignorant as ever, I see."
cubey@aol.pl (19:09:58): Siarnaq: "Affirmitive. Repetition of your actions - not complicated."
drascin (19:09:58): Ashe: You can't wannt to fight me NOW, Aeolus.
tormterra (19:09:58): Kei: "We need to be careful either way." Hopefully it wouldn't start a fight here ruining the entire operation
VJockey (19:09:59): Optimus: "They might have been drawn in before we entered.."
cubey@aol.pl (19:10:20): Atlas: "Why not? Do you even know why we're here?"
drascin (19:10:41): Ashe: ...you can't be serious. The stupid Game?
tengusaur (19:10:49): Asagi: "Because right now, we're trying to stop the other world from swallowing our own!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:11:01): Aeolus: "Ah, Atlas gets it, so do you. Except you made a mistake. It's not stupid, it serves my goals perfectly."
drascin (19:11:24): Ashe: Albert was using the lot of you! Look at this thing! He was never going to give you anything! He was just using you to feed the Model Ws for HIS plan!
cubey@aol.pl (19:11:38): Aeolus: "That's fine with me."
drascin (19:11:52): Model A: ...and this guy's supposed to be smart?
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:03): Aeolus: "I'm confident I can still defeat the rest. Even if Albert was using me, in the end his goal is the reset of the world, isn't it?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:18): Thetis: "A lot of people will die... the world will once again become pristine as it should have been!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:04): Aeolus: "You are the most vulnerable now. I'll just have to defeat you but leave the bomb alone. Thanks for arming it."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:14): Aeolus: "And if Albert continues to do his thing..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:23): Atlas: "Then he'll be next! I'll show him who is the strongest."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:29): Siarnaq: "Affirmitive."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:47): Aeolus: "To the victor, the spoils. The Ouroboros - and the world!"
drascin (19:13:52): Ashe: so what, first you kill me, and then you kill albert, and then what, you split this thing like a donut?!
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:14): Atlas: "Hah, of course not. I have no intention of sharing this with the rest of thsoe three psychos."
tormterra (19:14:21): Kei: "I'm pretty sure that all the biometal would make something pretty different from pristine."
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:38): Aeolus: "Well, I am certain I can take you down as well. There can be only one."
drascin (19:14:45): Ashe: You're insane! And you're all idiots! You're just playing straight into his hands!
VJockey (19:14:49): Optimus:"...."
drascin (19:14:51): Ashe sounds absolutely exasperated
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:59): Thetis: "The biometal kills humans. That is good for me. This is what you get for destroying the environment."
griefgathering (19:15:08): Purple Heart: "This is getting nowhere..."
tormterra (19:15:17): Kei: "...So what do you guys even want? Some vague victory. And do you really think the biometal will leave everything else alone?"
tengusaur (19:15:24): Asagi: "I'm inclined to agree with Ashe."
VJockey (19:15:30): Optimus: "One being cannot impose their will on an entire world, nor can they be allowed to simply cast judgement on countless lives."
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:36): Aeolus: "Albert is controlling it. After his demise, I will take his place."
VJockey (19:15:46): Optimus: "Cease this madness at once. All of you."
drascin (19:15:50): Ashe: Fine! If it's a fight you want, it's a fight you're going to get!
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:55): Siarnaq: "... Negative."
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:05): Siarnaq: "Commencing hostilities protocol."
drascin (19:16:07): Megaman A bristles in frustration
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:19): Thetis: "And who are you to say that? Look what humans have done to Earth! Is that fine with you?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:38): Waltspawn: "... It knows we are here. The universe."
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:45): Atlas: "Then we'll just have to make it quick!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:58): The four other Mega Men charge towards you!
VJockey (19:16:58): Optimus: "Someone who believes in their potential. Just as much as they can destroy, they can mend!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:01): This is it!
tengusaur (19:17:06): Asagi: "...Great. Those fools probably attracted its attention."
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:07): The fight for the sake of the world begins now.
drascin (19:17:12): Ashe: That's the first smart thing you've said all day, Atlas! ORYAAAA!
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:14): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCWts26j52w
drascin (19:17:22): Ashe charges back herself
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:24): Kei, Nep, Optimus, go!
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:34): Enemies: Aeolus, Atlas, Thetis, Siarnaq
Fri Freeman (19:18:45): Walt:" Um, so, what do we do now to arm the bomb? Can't we just arm the bomb and leave these weirdos here? No offense to the other weirdos we have in UG group."
tormterra (19:19:02): * "We need to keep them away from the bomb to avoid accidentally blowing it up while we're still here. Asagi, loop around to the side and strike at them to draw their attention away. Once one of them is distracted, strike at any openings they leave, Ashe. Genoace team, lay down suppression fire to create an opening for Asagi and Ashe." +
VJockey (19:19:26): Optimus: "Walt. Keep the bomb safe and arm it! We'll make sure they won't cause you any trouble!"
Fri Freeman (19:19:37): 8th Genoace Team: "Roger!"
Fri Freeman (19:20:02): Walt team makes a formation centered around him and lay suppression fire toward the megamen+
griefgathering (19:20:07): Purple Heart: "The bomb is the priority, indeed. Let's do this."
cubey@aol.pl (19:20:08): The bomb came with a rudimentary instruction manual, addressed towards "fleshy Earthies, I mean respectable clients"
VJockey (19:20:14): *That being said, the Autobot leader is going to rush at Thetis, swinging his arm-axe at the Megaman!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:20:14): anyway you can just press a switch and it will arm
tengusaur (19:20:44): Asagi: "Alright. I'll make an opening for you, Ashe!" Blue One takes off into the dark sky, circling around and charging up its beam cannon at the same time. And then, when it's ready, Asagi takes aim and fires a large blast towards the enemy Mega Men, seeking to scatter them! +
cubey@aol.pl (19:21:58): Thetis: "Why don't you understand? My grand plans are for the best!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:22:25): The Mega Man weaves behind - swimming through dark air as if it was water! He spins his halberd, creating a triangular energy wave which is sent back at Optimus. React.
griefgathering (19:22:44): *Nep joins in on the suppression fire by summoning and launching a rapid-fire barrage of energy blades! Becuase she doesn't have the numbers of the 8th Genoace team, she'll just have to focus on targets that get too close.+
tormterra (19:23:05): Kei: "Maybe for you, but not for anybody else."
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:19): Thetis: "They are best for the Earth!"
VJockey (19:23:38): Optimus: "I understand that even the best of intentions can be twisted into something horrific and destructive."
cubey@aol.pl (19:23:42): The rest of he Mega Men scatter, Asagi and Walt's team disrupting their formation. Though it seems they work best solo anyway...
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:08): Atlas: "I'll show you Model F's power! Dodge this!" She jumps backwards while shooting several homing shots in Asagi's direction.
drascin (19:24:16): *While the Mega Men scatter to avoid the blast, Ashe is going to take advantage of an instant he turns away to Buckfire Kick Aeolus right in his stupid smug British face, sending him away, and spinning on herself and beginngin to shoot a barrage of seeking lightning bolts as Megaman A while she falls - that follow the Model H Mega Man! How's your Macross skill, Aeolus?+
VJockey (19:24:25): *Optimus focuses more energy into his axe and swings it right through the energy wave! Seeking to bisect it vertically to allow him to continue to move forward and punch Thetis in the face!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:24:57): At the same time, Siarnaq throws kunais against Nep's waves while jumping from side to side.
Fri Freeman (19:24:57): Walt: "To be fair, the best thing for earth or any planet is to not have any creature on it at all. Seriously. Don't you think Gliese 581g look happier than Earth or Mars? But of course, who cares what planets think."
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:31): Siarnaq: "Elimination proceeding." One of his jumps makes him disappear! And he appears behind Purple Heart, throwing a fistful of flaming kunai at her from very close!
cubey@aol.pl (19:25:32): React.
tengusaur (19:26:01): Asagi: "There. That should work as a distraction!" Blue One quickly zooms away, but seeing that those shots home, Asagi opts to intercept them with wide slashes of his katana instead. +
tengusaur (19:26:24): Asagi: "And helping Earth's environment is good. But helping it by wiping out humans is overkill!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:26:40): "Ghh?!" Aeolus raises his energy blade - blocking the Buckfire kick, but being pushed away regardless!
griefgathering (19:26:44): Purple Heart: "He's fast...but...!"
VJockey (19:26:50): "A miner who had railed at the injustices of my civilization before the war had attempted to change it by force! An attempt that had left nothing but death and destruction across countless worlds for millenia and devastated our home planet!"
VJockey (19:27:17): "You say they are for the best, but all that does is blind you to the carnage that you plan to wreak!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:27:28): "Talking nonsense, as usual, I see?!" He accelerates, zooming swiftly and circling around to outrun Ashe's shots. But he returns, the blades already set to stab as he charges back!
cubey@aol.pl (19:27:31): React, Ashe.
griefgathering (19:28:08): *Purple Heart is suddenly enveloped by a white burst of energy, after which a white cocoon made of white feathers stands in her place to deflect the blows. It opens up soon enough though, and giant wings threaten to smack Siarnaq hard!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:28:16): Thetis: "You will... what?!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:28:50): He is forced to swim back as the energy wave is cut through by the axe! Regardless, the attack glances against the Mega Man Armor, the impact strong enough to throw him down!
cubey@aol.pl (19:29:29): Asagi tries to cut through the shots - and they explode in his face! Atlas has some serious firepower.
cubey@aol.pl (19:29:58): The fire kunais strike the wings, and are thrown to the sides as they open.
VJockey (19:30:02): "If your intentions are to help Earth, then I ask of you to help us."
cubey@aol.pl (19:30:02): Siarnaq is thrown back, too!
VJockey (19:30:12): "This does not have to end in violence"
cubey@aol.pl (19:30:20): Thetis: "No... you don't get it! My Model W is the only way!"
griefgathering (19:30:22): Purple Heart: "I won't go down that easily."
griefgathering (19:30:30): http://i.imgur.com/TWUz5bY.jpg
drascin (19:30:46): *The Model A Mega Man stands her ground, seeing Aeolus come in at fulll speed... apparently getting ready for a sudden dodge... except that an instant before he runs into her, the smalll shape of Megaman A becomes the massive shape of Bifrost with his spiked shield jaws right open like the street dead end to end all dead ends! Surprise!+
VJockey (19:30:51): "Is it? Or is it simply the easiest way?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:31:18): Aeolus: "What?! You can use the Trans-A well, at least!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:31:28): He stabs anyway - and the blades are struck in Bifrost's massive jaws!
tengusaur (19:31:30): Asagi: "That's some surprisingly powerful weaponry... Maybe not surprisingly, considering what Ashe packs."
cubey@aol.pl (19:31:33): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go.
drascin (19:31:53): Model A: It's called A-Trans, not Trans-A, you uncultured jerk!
drascin (19:31:57): (burn)
cubey@aol.pl (19:32:33): Aeolus: "Oh be silent, you little yapping pet!"
drascin (19:33:01): *Yeah, so what happens now, with Aeolus's blades stuck in there, is that Bifrost's jaws kinda go *crunch*+
cubey@aol.pl (19:34:04): Aeolus: "Do not think of it as a mistake! I have planned my course of action all along."
drascin (19:34:34): Model A: Yeah, sure. That sounds more like a sore loser who finds out he's not as smart as he thinks he is!
cubey@aol.pl (19:34:45): Aeolus removes one of his blades - and spins in place, quickly conjuring several plasma winds. The cyclone tries to force Bifrost's jaw open and severely damage it!
cubey@aol.pl (19:34:46): React.
drascin (19:35:04): (Ashe is apparently really rubbed on Model A, the way he's mouthing off at enemies)
drascin (19:37:43): *That's a pretty goood tactic. But apparently Aeolus has not seen Bifrost fight before - perhaps not surprising, given he was Atlas's minion. And so as the jaws are forced open, the huge, sharp ice teeth lining them are shot into the whirlwind, aiming to make Aeolus basically blenderize himself on whirling ice blades if he doesn't stop that soon!+
tengusaur (19:38:05): Asagi: "If defensive maneuvers won't do much... Then let's see how pure offense works!" Blue One takes a step back, points its katana forward, then launches towards Atlas, opening the charge with a powerful horizontal slash and then following up with a storm of quick swings, trying to force the Mega Man on the defensive! +
cubey@aol.pl (19:38:35): Atlas: "Ha - come!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:38:54): She slams her weapons together, engulfing them in flames - and counter-charges Asagi after a short dash!
cubey@aol.pl (19:38:55): React!
cubey@aol.pl (19:39:42): The plasma cyclones cut into Bifrost, dealing damage to Ashe's form despite the super thick front armor - and then quickly stop, as Aeolus is forced to flee while being peppered by icycle teeth!
Fri Freeman (19:40:01): Walt: "How long is the arming going to take?" Walt kneels on place and fires a careful shot at Atlas. The rest of his team makes defensive shell around him and spray some supressive fire around it, to make sure Atlas stays in target+
cubey@aol.pl (19:40:21): Aeolus: "Ridiculous! You think to outmatch me? I have Master Albert to defeat!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:41:07): Walt can see that a kind of aura seems to form around his spawn, and the bomb. Almost like a miniature dome inside a dome.
cubey@aol.pl (19:41:18): Waltspawn: "Not much longer..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:41:23): Waltspawn: "But we are not alone."
drascin (19:41:28): Ashe recoils a bit, taking her own shape again. That kinda hurt
tengusaur (19:41:41): Asagi: "I won't back down." He starts to exchange blows with Atlas, quickly parrying and waiting the the opportune opening - and when it shows itself, he suddenly unwraps the coil around Blue One's wrist, trying to knock Atlas away with a quick swing! +
drascin (19:41:44): Ashe: I'm going to do more than outmatch you1 I'm going to stop you, AND Albert!
cubey@aol.pl (19:41:54): Tendrils form from the floor. They are formed from dark matter yet roughly reminisce the inside of Ouroboros! They reach out for Walt's genoace!
cubey@aol.pl (19:41:57): React.
VJockey (19:42:14): #Walt w. Wheeljack & Blaster?
cubey@aol.pl (19:42:21): Atlas: "What the?!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:42:23): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (19:42:41): Atlas' charge is interrupted by the Genoace's supporting fire - she still slams her weapons into Blue One...
cubey@aol.pl (19:42:52): And Asagi blocks the fiery thrust with his katana!
VJockey (19:42:56): *Oh those were really not good! Wheeljack and Blaster are opening fire at them immediately to keep them from Walt's Genoace!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:43:08): Then the coiled whip-like weapon throws her away, and you manage to cut into her armor.
cubey@aol.pl (19:43:24): Kei, Neptune, Optimus go.
Fri Freeman (19:43:37): Walt: "Gah! Bad touch!" Walt's team disperse as they shoot at their legs. Well, not directly at their legs. Around their legs. Toward the tendrils+
VJockey (19:43:38): Wheeljack: "One of those days you wish you brought a hacksaw with you..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:43:40): Tethys: "..."
tengusaur (19:43:45): Asagi: "It worked!"
VJockey (19:44:46): Optimus: "We are running out of time... "
cubey@aol.pl (19:44:52): The barrage shoots most of the tendrils, but several still manage to entangle Walt's Genoace's limbs.
cubey@aol.pl (19:45:02): The unit is immobilized, though they do not do anything else yet!
VJockey (19:46:19): Optimus: "...Thetis. I implore you... if you truly wish to save the Earth rather than bring it to ruin... carry it out through right... and not might."
VJockey (19:46:46): *Optimus turns his back to his opponent to rush to Walt's aid, seeking to hack away the tendrils immobilizing the Genoace!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:47:15): Tethys: "..."
griefgathering (19:47:19): *Knowing she can't quite go that fast in this form, Nep has a plan. It might look foolish at first, but she charges Siarnaq and attacks with a flurry of blows as energy gathers in her sword...&
cubey@aol.pl (19:47:26): The Mega Man approaches closer to Optimus wordlessly...
cubey@aol.pl (19:47:50): And suddenly, both of you are dwarfed as a swarm of tendrils materializes and groups together - forming a giant fist that slams down!
cubey@aol.pl (19:48:04): Also, from the fist, smaller parts disentangle, forming spears that also rain down destruction.
cubey@aol.pl (19:48:12): React (both Optimus and Tethys are attacked)
tormterra (19:48:24): Kei: "Are you guys insane? While we fight, this universe is trying to kill us. It'll destroy the bomb if we continue!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:49:17): Siarnaq dodges the flurry of blows - by suddenly becoming many ninjas! Ninjas that jump back and all throw stars at Purple Heart.
cubey@aol.pl (19:49:19): React/continue!
Fri Freeman (19:49:45): Walt: "Well, I think they/it/him/her realizes we're here now, and him/it/her/they are/is not too happy about it."
drascin (19:50:15): Ashe: You can save on the pronouns, you know, we got it!
cubey@aol.pl (19:51:28): Atlas: "The bomb's still fine, isn't it? Worst case scenario, I'll use Ouroboros to wreck the black domes, instead!"
VJockey (19:51:42): *It would have been easier on Optimus to simply move and let Thetis fend for himself. That being said the easier path was one he never took. He simply guards as much as his body as he could as he does his best to shield the close by megaman+
griefgathering (19:52:04): "Blaze Break!" *Purple Heart reverses a swing as she releases the energy - releasing a wide blast of flame against the incoming stars, which buys her enough time to form a wide magic circle around her and across her enemies' position...
cubey@aol.pl (19:52:50): Thetis: "What... are you doing?"
griefgathering (19:52:52): "And...Virtua Strider!" *Her sword is suddenly raised, forming a MAP-sized pillar of energy!+
cubey@aol.pl (19:53:14): The fist slams down on Optimus, an incredible strain on his body making the metal crack...
cubey@aol.pl (19:53:28): However, his body holds, and the arm disappears...
tengusaur (19:53:29): Asagi: "If we fail here, we might not get the opportunity to destroy the domes anymore! Can't you see that?"
VJockey (19:53:31): Optimus: "....What... is right..."
drascin (19:53:34): Ashe: Giving you a chance!
Model A: Which is more than you deserve, you short jerk!
cubey@aol.pl (19:53:36): The Autobot leader is now in serious condition.
cubey@aol.pl (19:54:05): Thetis: "... You're dumb! I still want to kill humans! This won't make up for it!"
tormterra (19:54:15): Kei: "No, they can't. They never can."
cubey@aol.pl (19:54:18): Thetis spins the halberd - and floats away.
cubey@aol.pl (19:54:38): Still remaining on the battlefield, but not right next to the transformer.
cubey@aol.pl (19:54:45): At the same time...
cubey@aol.pl (19:54:54): Siarnaq: "... Failure to convey..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:55:07): All four Siarnaq clones are engulfed by the raising pillar of energy!
cubey@aol.pl (19:55:45): One by one, they are obliterated... not interrupting their attacks - though one of them does, and tries to flee instead.
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:07): He takes the brunt of the attack regardless, the Mega Man thrown back away and critically damaged. He falls down on his knee.
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:19): Siarnaq: "Systems... performing at a critical state...
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:36): Waltspawn: "... Now."
drascin (19:56:47): Ashe: Just give up! We don't have time! The bomb's about to go off!
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:47): The bomb surges, using energon as catalyst!
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:54): And...
cubey@aol.pl (19:56:57): Nothing happens.
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:02): It malfunctioned, it looks like.
griefgathering (19:57:06): Purple Heart: "...What?"
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:09): Damn faulty Decepticon engineering.
tengusaur (19:57:16): Asagi: "...Shit."
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:17): Atlas: "Grr! What now?!"
VJockey (19:57:29): Wheeljack: "Ah scrapbaskets"
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:32): Aeolus: "In the end, the one you can trust... is only yourself!"
VJockey (19:57:39): "Hold on! Let me see if I can fix it!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:40): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go.
cubey@aol.pl (19:57:47): Also Kei didn't take her action yet.
drascin (19:58:28): Ashe: We have to find a way to stop this! And I don't want to have to kill you! so just GIVE! UP!
Fri Freeman (19:58:42): Walt: "Can'
cubey@aol.pl (19:59:06): Atlas: "I'll give it a good whack and it'll go boom. Don't get in my way!"
Fri Freeman (19:59:08): Walt: "Can't we postpone the fight until the encroaching hostiel universe is contained? Somehow?"
cubey@aol.pl (20:00:01): Walt's genoace is getting held tighter and tighter.
cubey@aol.pl (20:00:10): Even if the bomb detonates, will he be able to get away in time?
tengusaur (20:00:19): Asagi: "Are you crazy? Do you want to break it completely?"
drascin (20:00:44): *Yeah, Ashe is switching to full aggro on Aeolus, zooming after him in his own shape and tying him in a high speed knife fight - before suddenly turning into Atlas and backfisting him down into the ground - and shifting again into Siarnaq to clone herself and begin barraging him as the both of them fall into the ground!+
tengusaur (20:01:00): * Asagi descends towards the tendrils holding Walt's unit, trying to cut them apart with his katana. +
cubey@aol.pl (20:01:36): Aeolus: "Copycat! The knockoff will never surpass the original!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:01:53): He keeps up easily with the blades - then Atlas punches him.
cubey@aol.pl (20:01:56): "Ooof!"
drascin (20:02:24): Ashe: I'm faster than you are! I'm better at this than you are! I SAID GIVE UP!
Fri Freeman (20:02:31): walt also unsheathe hsi heat stick and try to pry the tentacles from his genoace
tormterra (20:02:41): * "Anybody able to fix the bomb? If so, do it. Everyone else protect them and Asagi while he tries to free Walt. We've got the advantage of numbers if we can use them properly. Autobots, divide the two enemies remaining and don't let them support each other. Once they are, encircle the leader to force them on the defensive so Nep can strike from an unguarded angle." +
drascin (20:02:45): Ashe is seriously trying to end this without having to kill the Mega Men
cubey@aol.pl (20:02:48): As a last resort attack, Aeolus' whole body crackles. He forms electric pinwheels that shoot off lightning everywhere - including himself. But he throws them regardless!
Fri Freeman (20:02:54): His team is helping+
cubey@aol.pl (20:02:57): Aeolus: "I refuse!"
Fri Freeman (20:03:16): Walt: "I wish this is heat crowbar rather than heat stakes..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:03:44): Waltspawn: "Ah. There."
drascin (20:04:11): Ashe: You stubborn...!
cubey@aol.pl (20:04:26): Waltspawn picks something up from the bomb.
cubey@aol.pl (20:04:31): "It will work now."
cubey@aol.pl (20:05:13): Walt and Asagi manage to remove most of the tendrils! The Genoace can move now!
drascin (20:05:15): *And Ashe is going to boost into him, tackling him through the cloud of lightning into the ground in Thetis's form. and as they slam into the ground and roll she's going to shove Thetis's halberd into the ground, point up, glowing - a lightning rod so Aeolus doesn't kill himself and Ashe besides+
cubey@aol.pl (20:06:26): The bomb falls to the ground from the mobile suit's back, a thump seconded by another as Ashe throws Aeolus down.
VJockey (20:07:09): *Blaster is going to get in Atlas' way if he wants to start banging on the bomb, letting loose with a disorienting soundstorm. As for Aeolus... Ashe has that handled.+
cubey@aol.pl (20:07:20): Electric currents rain painfully down on both your bodies, but then you manage to safely redirect them.
cubey@aol.pl (20:07:37): Aeolus: "... Why?"
cubey@aol.pl (20:07:41): Aeolus: "Why are you so stubborn?"
drascin (20:07:53): Ashe: I could say the same darn thing to you!
drascin (20:07:56): /punch
Fri Freeman (20:08:01): Walt: "I'm not even going to ask what did you pick from the bomb that now it works."
cubey@aol.pl (20:08:12): Aeolus: "Blah!"
drascin (20:08:36): Ashe: I told you! Albert's plans, Albert's stupid game, have already killed enough people!
griefgathering (20:08:37): *Meanwhile, Purple Heart will strike Atlas from the side, as instructed. She's wary of punchy opponents, but it looks like this will be the last one...!+
drascin (20:08:45): Ashe: The only one who dies today is Albert himself!
cubey@aol.pl (20:08:50): Waltspawn: "The thing that makes it go off did not work. It is gone but now it needs to be made manua..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:09:06): A swarm of tendrils appears again!
cubey@aol.pl (20:09:24): Thetis: "Aaaah!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:09:32): The Mega Man swings his trident - a wide energy wave.
cubey@aol.pl (20:09:35): It cuts the tendrils down!
cubey@aol.pl (20:09:48): ... And nicks the bomb, which starts to glow as it channels energon into an explosion.
drascin (20:10:01): Model A: Oh
Ashe: Crap
cubey@aol.pl (20:10:08): Atlas was trying to dodge both people who stood in front of her... well, one to the side.
cubey@aol.pl (20:10:11): Atlas: "... Crap."
tormterra (20:10:20): Kei: "...Walt, you better get us out of here. Quick."
tengusaur (20:10:32): Asagi: "...What she said."
cubey@aol.pl (20:10:33): Waltspawn: "You need to run now."
drascin (20:10:36): Ashe: Okay, time to run, everybody!
griefgathering (20:11:07): Purple Heart: "Right...!"
VJockey (20:12:20): Optimus: "Agreed... roll out!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:12:26): Siarnaq disappears into the shadows, while Atlas and Thetis scatter, shocked.
cubey@aol.pl (20:12:38): Aeolus is lifting himself back up, but with difficulty.
Fri Freeman (20:12:40): Walt: "Right, I don't want to be responsible for the death of several of earth's best promising youngster and the leader of a whole alien race anyway."
cubey@aol.pl (20:12:52): Don't worry about the enemies, though. Save yourselves!
Fri Freeman (20:12:57): Walt lead the way through the, black inky darkness
Fri Freeman (20:13:20): There's nothing that differentiate where he tboost through with any other direction, but he does anyway.
tengusaur (20:13:30): Asagi quickly follows Walt's Genoace, looking out for anything that might want to attack the group.
drascin (20:13:37): Ashe is going to give Aeolus a hand, though, by kicking him towards the exit in her Sixshot form before transforming and flying out herself
drascin (20:13:52): she doesn't want to kill him, but he does deserve a lot of kciks in the ribs
cubey@aol.pl (20:13:53): Off you go!
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:03): ... But you are too slow. The bomb explodes while you are still inside the dome.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:09): However, something weird happens.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:23): The distance between you and the blinding explosion seems to grow.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:35): It's as if the bomb was sucking the darkness of the dome in, instead of expanding.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:40): No, not just this dome.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:51): Every dome that has spread over Earth, one after another.
cubey@aol.pl (20:14:59): This gives you precious seconds of time to get out!
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:02): And then the dome explodes!
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:15): You come by - still in Ouroboros.
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:20): But alive.
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:41): The dome... is gone
tengusaur (20:15:49): Asagi: "That was close..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:52): The surroundings are damaged severely, but the dome is gone. Hopefully forever.
cubey@aol.pl (20:15:59): In its epicenter, someone else stands.
drascin (20:16:05): Ashe comes in, detransforming from plane to cybertronian to megaman in a single eyewatering motion
cubey@aol.pl (20:16:06): Waltspawn: "You did it."
drascin (20:16:18): Ashe: That sure was something
cubey@aol.pl (20:16:24): Waltspawn: "The other universe is gone. Banished from this forever."
tormterra (20:16:26): Kei: "Yeah...Good thing nothing attacked us after we left..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:16:34): The Waltspawn looks rather singed... but alive!
cubey@aol.pl (20:16:47): Walt - you feel a strange sensation.
Fri Freeman (20:16:58): Walt: "And great that you're alive too."
drascin (20:16:59): Ashe: So, we solved that one? No more creepy domes?
VJockey (20:16:59): Optimus: "...For now at least... we are not quite out of danger yet."
cubey@aol.pl (20:17:09): Your power, the ability to detect weird things that always seemed to hide just behind your sight.
cubey@aol.pl (20:17:25): It seems to be... well, not gone. But waning? Maybe it's just a temporary effect considering what just happened.
griefgathering (20:17:28): Purple Heart: "I hope so..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:17:41): Or maybe, maybe the other universe really is gone forever, and is taking its "gifts" along...
cubey@aol.pl (20:18:02): The four other Mega Men are gone. Did they make it out in time?
cubey@aol.pl (20:18:17): You have more pressing issues to take care of.
cubey@aol.pl (20:18:21): In front of you stand the gates.
cubey@aol.pl (20:18:30): The gates - to Albert's domain. The heart of Ouroboros.
drascin (20:18:40): Ashe: ...pretty ritzy, isn't it
tormterra (20:18:49): Kei: "This is it...Everybody ready?"
drascin (20:19:03): Ashe: Born ready.
drascin (20:19:07): Model A: ...
tengusaur (20:19:08): Asagi: "I hope the domes are gone forever. You're going to be fine, right?" The question is directed at Waltspawn.
drascin (20:19:23): Model A: ...Ashe, just take out Albert, alright?
tengusaur (20:19:24): Asagi: "All that's left is Albert. Let's finish this."
griefgathering (20:19:27): Purple Heart: "Yes. I'm ready as well."
drascin (20:19:27): Ashe: ...uh?
VJockey (20:19:32): Optimus: "As much as I can be."
drascin (20:19:38): but the biometal says nothing more
cubey@aol.pl (20:19:44): Waltspawn: "Yes."
cubey@aol.pl (20:19:56): The doors open.
cubey@aol.pl (20:20:00): Behind them you see...
drascin (20:20:00): Ashe: Well, guys, time to end this. Albert! Open the doors!
cubey@aol.pl (20:20:05): That's no throne room.
cubey@aol.pl (20:20:13): Behind the doors is the outside.
cubey@aol.pl (20:20:30): A beautiful meadow, full of flowers and blossoming cherry trees.
drascin (20:20:49): Ashe: ...flowers? Growing on top of Ouroboros?
cubey@aol.pl (20:20:53): Warm sun shines down on you. The place feels so serene and beautiful.
tengusaur (20:21:09): Asagi: "..."
tormterra (20:21:23): Kei: "How did this even happen up here?"
tengusaur (20:21:31): Asagi: "Is this a preview of the world Master Albert wants to create?"
cubey@aol.pl (20:21:34): Albert: "So you made it here."
drascin (20:21:56): she looks around, noticing that the outside is not completely outside - she can't see the fleet of mavericks that were circling the Ouroboros...
cubey@aol.pl (20:21:57): Albert: "I should be impressed but all I feel is disappointment."
cubey@aol.pl (20:22:07): There he is!
cubey@aol.pl (20:22:29): In the distance - Master Albert, sitting atop a golden throne. A large, decorated one.
drascin (20:22:29): Ashe: And you're going to be even more dissappointed once I cave your head in, Albert!
Fri Freeman (20:22:37): Walt: "That's what my mom says to me as well."
cubey@aol.pl (20:23:14): Albert: "I am disappointed that I have to destroy you. This is where it ends, for you and Model Albert."
drascin (20:23:33): Model A: DON'T CALL ME THAT! Ashe, this is it! Shoot him, Ashe! Just shoot him! He has nothing interesting to say! He's crazy and evil, remember?
cubey@aol.pl (20:23:40): Albert: "If only you stood back and allowed me to recreate the world, becoming a new part of it."
drascin (20:24:02): Ashe: In your dreams, Albert.
griefgathering (20:24:19): Purple Heart: "This may not be the world I call home, but I can't let you do that."
cubey@aol.pl (20:24:29): Albert: "Indeed. However, in my hands I have the power to turn those dreams into reality."
cubey@aol.pl (20:24:54): Albert: "The Ultimate Mega Man will recreate the world. The process has already begun."
tengusaur (20:25:25): Asagi: "Your dreams are built on the corpses of billions. We won't let you make them come true."
cubey@aol.pl (20:25:28): Albert: "All that is left to be done..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:25:34): The throne starts to descend.
cubey@aol.pl (20:25:43): Albert: "Is to get rid of this unwanted influence."
VJockey (20:25:56): Optimus: "That is not going to happen."
cubey@aol.pl (20:26:00): And it transforms, quickly changing its movement into ascending as it takes on a new robotic form!
drascin (20:26:03): Ashe: Not going to happen! Come on, guys - let's go!
cubey@aol.pl (20:26:08): Albert's throne
http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/1/1a/BM-AlbertForm1.png/revision/latest?cb=20150624204923
cubey@aol.pl (20:26:13): A giant three headed hydra!
griefgathering (20:26:18): Purple Heart: "It's your influence that is unwanted here...!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:26:19): Kei, Optimus, Neptune, go!
cubey@aol.pl (20:26:38): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIV5oU3Wzbw
tormterra (20:26:56): Kei: "Right, let's go...And are you actually going to claim to be working for the good of the world while sitting on a golden throne?"
VJockey (20:27:36): *Despite the damage he had taken Optimus is going to keep fighting! He opens fire on one of the heads, as do Wheeljack and Blaster - the former letting loose with a magnetic missile to scramble the head's circuits!+
cubey@aol.pl (20:28:26): The head is shot several times, and counters by breathing fire that continues along the ground in a fast-moving wave!
cubey@aol.pl (20:28:28): React, Autobots.
drascin (20:28:48): # the bots
cubey@aol.pl (20:28:52): Approved.
griefgathering (20:29:14): *Purple Heart targets the same head that Optimus does, summoning a pair of swords that are also explosive!+
cubey@aol.pl (20:29:36): Albert: "Hmm. Not bad!"
tormterra (20:29:48): * "The hydra is focused on the Autobots. Asagi and Genoace team, use this to try to encircle it and strike before it turns their attention to you. With where it's looking, it should have at least some blind spots around here and here." +
cubey@aol.pl (20:29:48): The head's mouth remains open for another attack - but it's destroyed!
drascin (20:29:55): Ashe: Too cowardly to fight us directly, Albert?! Where's all that "king of the world" stuff now?! And by the way - don't you dare touch my friends!
cubey@aol.pl (20:30:00): However, the neck still fires missiles. React, Nep!
VJockey (20:30:29): *With the incoming fire wave the most that can be done is dive out of the way!+
drascin (20:31:00): *Ashe is going to come in in Vulturon's form, standing in front of the oncoming onslaught of missiles and fire - and lets go a massive note on his guitar, creating a shockwave to disperse the attacks!+
griefgathering (20:31:01): *Nep spins and unleashes a purple disk of energy that will hopefully cut through those missiles and detonate them prematurely!+
tengusaur (20:31:21): Asagi: "Alright. Let's give it a shot." Blue One moves around, quickly, while the hydra is occupied. Asagi takes aim at the weak point given to him by Kei, and as soon as he has a clear way to it, he fires a blast from his beam cannon straight at it, and then another one! +
drascin (20:31:28): Yeah, Ashe's right pretty pissed off by now
cubey@aol.pl (20:31:50): The missiles are taken care of, easily. However while the fire wave is mostly evaded or dispersed, Ashe feels the heat as one of the waves moves right next to her feet.
cubey@aol.pl (20:31:58): Almost knocking Vulturon down.
cubey@aol.pl (20:33:12): Albert: "Be lost forever!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:33:24): The two remaining heads shoot out holes in space.
cubey@aol.pl (20:33:40): One is black, the other white - and they both fly towards Blue One as it attacks what seemed to be a blind spot of the hydra!
cubey@aol.pl (20:33:43): React.
cubey@aol.pl (20:34:22): Ashe, Walt, go.
tengusaur (20:35:41): Asagi: "This enemy's FOV is a bit too wide for my liking!" He starts zig-zagging around, letting Blue One's survival instinct take over for a moment. This attack looks like getting hit by it is a very bad idea! +
Fri Freeman (20:36:26): Walt'
cubey@aol.pl (20:36:51): The black hole is sucking Blue One in as it comes closer. However, with extra speed you manage to get away from it.
Fri Freeman (20:36:56): Walt's team do Kei's suggestion and circle the hydra, before peppering it with laser fire from multiple directions.+
drascin (20:36:57): *Ashe is going to rush and dodge under the heads, to find the center of the hydra, turn into Atlas, and let it have it with a massive barrage of firepower at knife fighting distance, spitting fire and plasma and brimstone two-handed+
cubey@aol.pl (20:36:59): However it continues to give chase!
cubey@aol.pl (20:37:03): Asagi, also go.
cubey@aol.pl (20:37:42): The hydra is damaged quite heavily!
cubey@aol.pl (20:37:54): Albert: "Not bad. Not bad at all."
cubey@aol.pl (20:38:03): The two remaining heads split off from their necks!
cubey@aol.pl (20:38:22): Their mouths open and they aim at the assailants - firing a multitude of beams!
cubey@aol.pl (20:38:27): React, Ashe and Walt.
tengusaur (20:39:13): * Asagi moves around, firing his machinegun at the hydra's main body mid-flight. He never stops going, not letting the hole catch up to him - but he tries to direct it in such a way that it'll collide into one of the hydra's heads! +
drascin (20:39:52): Ashe: Ah crap. Little fire support here, guys?
drascin (20:39:55): *As the shots come from above, not having space to dodge, Ashe is going to turn into Chronoforce, and bunker down so the shots hit Chronoforce's near-impenetrable shell while someone else gives her a hand+
VJockey (20:40:25): #Ashe?
cubey@aol.pl (20:40:28): Approved.
VJockey (20:41:40): *Well it looks like they were going to need a little more firepower here... so what else does Blaster do but bring out the cassette bots to add more volume as the Autobots send a barrage into one of the Hydra heads!+
cubey@aol.pl (20:44:47): One of the heads is caught by the black hole.
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:01): It reappears in the white hole... severely damaged, falling to the ground as it is destroyed!
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:17): Ashe needs assistance from others - and it comes.
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:31): The Autobots are all firing, bursting holes through the head before bringing it down as well.
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:39): All that remains is the body... which suddenly goes critical
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:44): Albert: "... No!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:53): Albert: "I was close, and yet!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:45:59): The hydra explodes!
drascin (20:46:29): Once the explosion passes, Ashe turns back into herself, ready for anything - chronoforce is not the mopst mobile thing
griefgathering (20:46:34): Purple Heart: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:46:52): Nothing comes from the rubble...
cubey@aol.pl (20:47:05): Waltspawn: "The world is safe."
tengusaur (20:47:06): Asagi: "Is it over?"
cubey@aol.pl (20:47:12): Look who's coming through the gates.
cubey@aol.pl (20:47:28): Waltspawn: "Wonderful world that I love."
cubey@aol.pl (20:47:40): Waltspawn: "You saved it for me. Thank you."
drascin (20:47:47): Ashe is wary. Albert seems the type to have contingencies
cubey@aol.pl (20:48:22): Waltspawn: "It will not be destroyed anymore. And this place is special. Thank you. Now I can..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:48:35): A weird distortion starts to form around the location.
Fri Freeman (20:48:38): Walt: "well, despite everything, this world is a pretty nice place to live after all."
drascin (20:49:02): Model A: Now what?!
cubey@aol.pl (20:49:03): It's similar to what happened in the dome. However it feels different - the opposite in fact.
cubey@aol.pl (20:49:16): Waltspawn: "I need to act fast while I still can."
tormterra (20:49:25): Kei: "Not before we find the body and probably destroy this place...Remain on your guard...What's that?" The sudden weirdness put her on edge, in preparation for whatever happened
cubey@aol.pl (20:49:33): Waltspawn: "I love the world. I will become one with it."
drascin (20:49:45): Ashe: ...oooookay, getting creepy there
tengusaur (20:49:50): Asagi: "You..."
griefgathering (20:49:56): Purple Heart: "I...don't quite understand..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:49:58): Waltspawn: "The other universe wanted to destroy it but it's a waste."
cubey@aol.pl (20:50:11): Waltspawn: "I promise it will be good. Just wait and do nothing."
cubey@aol.pl (20:50:26): The distortion starts to grow more intense - centered on the Waltspawn.
drascin (20:50:48): Ashe: Okay, so, show of hands, guys. Who here believes this is going to end well?
VJockey (20:50:51): Optimus: "...This day never seems to end does it?"
drascin (20:50:55): Ashe doesn't raise her own hand
tengusaur (20:51:01): Asagi: "You want to absorb everything...!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:04): This sensation... you have an eerily specific impression.
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:09): Waltspawn: "Yes."
VJockey (20:51:13): [Optimus tellingly doesn't raise his had either.]
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:20): Your surroundings start to spread.
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:31): The field of flowers and trees reaching out, seemingly forever.
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:53): Waltspawn: "We will all become one, me and this universe."
cubey@aol.pl (20:51:58): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqTVWJeixNI
drascin (20:52:12): Ashe: Sorry, lady, but I like my individuality!
tormterra (20:52:21): Kei: "Same."
cubey@aol.pl (20:52:26): Waltspawn: "You like the world."
drascin (20:52:26): Ashe: After all, if everyone is the same, who will be there to tell my story?
cubey@aol.pl (20:52:32): Waltspawn: "Why not become one with it?"
griefgathering (20:52:56): Purple Heart: "There is such a thing as too much togetherness..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:53:10): Waltspawn: "It will be over soon."
drascin (20:53:26): Ashe: No way to convince you to stop, then?
cubey@aol.pl (20:53:26): You cannot see the end of the field anymore.
VJockey (20:53:31): Optimus: "Every being in their own way is their own world. They experience things differently."
tengusaur (20:53:40): Asagi: "It's already bothersome enough when people constantly come to my room. If we let you do that, it's like the whole world is in my room all the time!"
VJockey (20:53:42): "You simply cannot force everyone to exist as one."
cubey@aol.pl (20:53:55): Waltspawn: "Why? This is what I want. This is an act of love."
tengusaur (20:54:03): Asagi: "Stop. Or we'll make you stop."
tormterra (20:54:05): Kei: "...That's the metaphor you're going to use?"
cubey@aol.pl (20:54:11): Waltspawn: "I cannot stop it."
cubey@aol.pl (20:54:27): Waltspawn: "You have to stop me. But please don't."
drascin (20:54:46): Ashe: But you just said it. We have to. And we will!
cubey@aol.pl (20:54:58): Waltspawn: "I won't let you stop me. I'm sorry."
cubey@aol.pl (20:55:25): Giant semi transparent arms appear from thin air, forming a defensive barrier around the Waltspawn.
cubey@aol.pl (20:55:28): (Who wants to act, can now)
drascin (20:56:18): *Well, Ashe is going to dive forward and definitely try to attck it with a barrage of lasers, trying to stop it. She still doesn't want to kill her, but... destroying all the universe is too much!+
tormterra (20:56:34): (Can Kei's instruments detect anything noteworthy to try to formulate a plan based on?)
cubey@aol.pl (20:56:43): Several of the hands disappear - and two reach out towards Ashe. Suddenly they disappear and try to grab her from behind!
tengusaur (20:56:47): Asagi: "Gh... You're forcing us!" Blue One opens fire, shooting a beam towards the strange creature! +
drascin (20:57:02): Ashe: You're too slow!
cubey@aol.pl (20:57:03): Kei's instrument are going crazy. It seems like even constants of physics are changing right now!
cubey@aol.pl (20:57:13): Waltspawn: "I will tell you a secret."
cubey@aol.pl (20:57:42): The beam shoots through all arms - but Waltspawn is not there. She is levitating behind Blue One now.
tengusaur (20:57:54): Asagi: "!"
cubey@aol.pl (20:57:56): Waltspawn: "This world... is disgusting."
griefgathering (20:58:02): Purple Heart: "Watch out...!"
drascin (20:58:05): *As the hands appear behind her, Ashe suddenly turns into Aeolus and dodgesto the side, letting a trail of lightning fry the hands that come after her+
cubey@aol.pl (20:58:10): Her hand brushes against the metal, causing it to corrode swiftly whenever it touches. React!
cubey@aol.pl (20:58:33): Waltspawn: "It is like maggots that squirm in a piece of rotten meat."
tormterra (20:58:45): * Nothing to it then, if instruments were useless, she'd just have to hope that whatever firepower she could manage on her own would be enough. Aiming at the waltspawn, she unloaded everything she could in terms of gatlings and beams. Hopefully it'd do something. +
tengusaur (20:58:49): * Asagi quickly kicks away from the Waltspawn, turning around and firing a much weaker, less charged beam towards her as cover. +
cubey@aol.pl (20:58:52): Waltspawn: "The other universe found it digusting and it is the same for me."
cubey@aol.pl (20:58:59): Waltspawn: "But..."
cubey@aol.pl (20:59:04): Waltspawn: "I like it that way."
cubey@aol.pl (20:59:12): Waltspawn: "It is hideous and this is why it is beautiful."
drascin (20:59:42): Ashe: ...you're messed up, you know that?!
cubey@aol.pl (20:59:55): As soon as Blue One turns to melee - Waltspawn disappears from that location.
VJockey (20:59:58): Optimus: "...Clearly that is the case."
cubey@aol.pl (21:00:14): She appears in another place, Kei's beams and bullets flying around her... and changing directions weirdly.
cubey@aol.pl (21:00:30): The arms disappear after missing Ashe - and reappear in front of the Waltspawn.
cubey@aol.pl (21:01:44): Waltspawn: "This world is fascinating. So different. Everything is seperate."
cubey@aol.pl (21:01:53): Waltspawn: "It can make you sick."
cubey@aol.pl (21:02:35): Waltspawn: "This sickness has beauty in it. Yes. Your universe... is like no other."
drascin (21:02:43): Ashe: But that difference is what makes it special!
cubey@aol.pl (21:02:43): "So I will treasure it forever."
tengusaur (21:03:13): Asagi: "If you fuse everything together, it will no longer be separate!"
drascin (21:03:25): Ashe: If you just turn it all into a blob then nothing will have mattered! No more stories! No more heroes! No more nothing! Just a black blob forever, doing nothing!
cubey@aol.pl (21:03:26): Waltspawn: "I will remember it as such."
tengusaur (21:03:49): Asagi: "That's messed up..."
tormterra (21:04:13): Kei: "Seriously..."
VJockey (21:04:23): "..."
Fri Freeman (21:05:05): Walt: "She's not there...." Walt is calm as if he's in a trance. She then aim his gun at a point and shoot.+
cubey@aol.pl (21:05:27): Waltspawn: "Ah."
drascin (21:05:33): Ashe: ...you can see where she is?
cubey@aol.pl (21:05:44): The beam flies off in a wildly different direction - but it turns and spins!
cubey@aol.pl (21:05:55): And glances against the Waltspawn, who has to swerve mid air to avoid being hit.
drascin (21:06:01): Model A: Someone wire the rest of us into his eyes!
Ashe: Model A!
cubey@aol.pl (21:06:02): Waltspawn: "You can do this still?"
cubey@aol.pl (21:06:25): Waltspawn: "After all from all of this universe I am closest to you."
cubey@aol.pl (21:06:30): Waltspawn: "I am made from your flesh."
griefgathering (21:06:46): Purple Heart: "That does make sense...disturbing as it is..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:06:56): The dodge was fast but the Waltspawn is now breathing heavily.
cubey@aol.pl (21:07:14): It looks like despite being in control of this reality, she still has the durability of a normal human.
cubey@aol.pl (21:07:51): Waltspawn: "... You will not stop until you die, or I die. Right?"
Fri Freeman (21:08:02): Walt: "Apparently... yes. I am still connected to you."
cubey@aol.pl (21:08:31): Waltspawn: "Then you know my feelings."
VJockey (21:10:39): *...Against an enemy that defies reason, logic and physics... perhaps a little wisdom is called for. Optimus' torso opens as he channels the power of the matrix outward in a corona of light.+
cubey@aol.pl (21:11:12): The Matrix of Leadership - its light shines upon the battlefield, visible even though the surroundings are already bright and well lit.
Fri Freeman (21:11:23): Walt: "...yes. Your love is genuine. Unlike you, I don't like this world. This world is a messed up place. The past is full of regret. The future is full of uncertainity. But still... That's why I still want to live apparently. Because the present turned out to be the best time to live..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:11:27): Waltspawn: "This... what is this?"
cubey@aol.pl (21:11:44): Waltspawn: "...!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:11:51): Waltspawn: "You want to live in a world you hate?"
Fri Freeman (21:14:40): Walt" Because apparently some other people like it enough. And that's reason enough. Because, if I decide that because this world isn't worth to be living in because I don't like it... That makes me someone special. And I'm not someone special. I'm just Lieutenant Walt Schmertz, of the 8th Genoace team, one of the thousands of soldiers employed by the unity group."
cubey@aol.pl (21:14:52): Waltspawn: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:15:07): She stares up at the light of the Matrix, while hearing Walt's words.
cubey@aol.pl (21:15:24): Waltspawn: "... The process started already. You need to stop me to end it. But..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:15:27): The hands disappear.
cubey@aol.pl (21:15:39): Waltspawn: "There are... things in this world. That I like."
cubey@aol.pl (21:15:52): Waltspawn: "Not because of how disgusting they are. They are nice. For example there is..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:16:17): Suddenly, the Waltspawn's eyes grow wide as she falls down.
cubey@aol.pl (21:16:31): The reason for this shock is a beam - an energy beam that suddenly pierced a hole through her chest.
cubey@aol.pl (21:16:46): The beam was fired from a small bit-like machine. More gather around a pile of rubble.
cubey@aol.pl (21:16:52): A pile from under which someone climbs up.
griefgathering (21:16:53): Purple Heart: "...?!"
drascin (21:16:59): Ashe: ...!
cubey@aol.pl (21:17:15): Master Albert: "Do you think my plans for the world so easily thwarted?"
drascin (21:17:15): from Ashe's frown, she's clealry guessed who comes here
tormterra (21:17:29): Kei: "...How many times do you need to almost die?"
griefgathering (21:17:37): Purple Heart: "He's still..."
griefgathering (21:17:43): She sounds frustrated now.
drascin (21:17:47): Ashe: I thought that was too easy. But you're not getting out of it this time
cubey@aol.pl (21:18:01): Albert: "I have a plan to reset the world. Recreate everything anew."
cubey@aol.pl (21:18:18): Albert: "You, Ashe. Have you wondered how you came to have the powers of a Mega Man?"
tengusaur (21:18:41): Asagi: "..."
drascin (21:18:58): Model A: Shoot him! Just shoot him! Don't listen to him, Ashe!
cubey@aol.pl (21:19:15): Albert: "From all of those who battled in the Game, they had their genes modified. Tampered, so that I may bestow upon them the Model W."
cubey@aol.pl (21:19:19): Albert: "You are diffrent."
drascin (21:19:21): Ashe: You got your DNA into me like so many other people. And then I found Model A
drascin (21:19:28): Ashe: ...what?
drascin (21:19:40): uh oh. Please don't be what she's fearing
cubey@aol.pl (21:19:42): Albert: "No. There is no tampering done to you, Ashe. Your lineage is genuine."
cubey@aol.pl (21:20:08): Albert: "You are an unaltered descendant of my own bloodline. From a human's point of view, we are kin."
cubey@aol.pl (21:20:22): Albert: "The last one, as well. This is why I am sad that I have to erase it..."
drascin (21:20:31): Ashe: ...you're my family? After all I've searched, and you're it?
cubey@aol.pl (21:20:46): Albert: "But glad. Glad that I can secure this position, and the world's fate with it!"
drascin (21:20:49): Ashe sounds rather struck, and sad
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:06): Albert: "I will... no. I am more than just the Ultimate Mega Man."
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:14): Albert: "I am a god! Model W, MegaMerge!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:21): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rQvf7AE1Ck
drascin (21:21:29): Ashe: So, that's how my story goes, then?
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:32): Albert's body turns into a Megamerged form!
drascin (21:21:37): Ashe is musing to herself, somewhat out of it
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:38): Model W MegaMerged Albert
http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/megaman/images/5/5d/ZXAAlbert2.png/revision/latest?cb=20101015012108
cubey@aol.pl (21:21:50): Around him, around a dozen bits gather, forming an energy barrier.
drascin (21:21:53): Ashe: ...no.
drascin (21:21:59): Ashe: That's not it.
tengusaur (21:22:07): Asagi: "Ashe..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:22:32): Albert: "The new world begins. Now!"
drascin (21:22:34): Ashe: That's not going to be my story. Your plans, your destiny - they have nothing to do with me! I will make a new destiny with my own hands!
cubey@aol.pl (21:22:56): The field of flowers around you disappears, the reality of it crushed and splintered into motes that are swept away!
cubey@aol.pl (21:23:15): You now stand atop the Ouroboros.
cubey@aol.pl (21:23:30): Ashe, Walt, Asagi, go.
drascin (21:23:31): Ashe: No, WE will make our destiny with our own hands! The new world will be born from all of us!
griefgathering (21:23:44): Purple Heart: "Yes. This is it...after all of that."
drascin (21:23:44): Ashe: Albert! Your time is OVER!
tengusaur (21:24:11): Asagi: "Let's do it, everyone! Walt, are you okay?"
cubey@aol.pl (21:24:11): Albert: "No. My time is only beginning."
drascin (21:24:46): Ashe: Come on, everyone! One last fight and we go home!
tormterra (21:25:20): Kei: "Right. Let's end this madman."
VJockey (21:26:34): Optimus: "Beside you until the end Ashe."
VJockey (21:26:58): "We need to make sure you can see your little sister again."
Fri Freeman (21:27:00): Walt looks toward the remain of Waltspawn in silence. "Sorry for not spending too much time with you. We never even gave you a name. This universe is a pretty crappy host, isn't?"
VJockey (21:27:15): [There was a friendly chuckle despite the situation and pain optimus was in.]
tengusaur (21:27:24): *Blue One rushes at Master Albert, trying to cleave through him with a horizontal slash - then turns the katana around in its hand and follows up with a lightning fast stab! +
drascin (21:27:33): And the luciferian form of Mega Man W is opposed by the much smaller form of Mega Man A, hair crackling to the wind. "Come on, Model A. Let's do this. You and me and everyone else. Let's show Albert that the future has passed him by!"
drascin (21:27:34): *Mega Man A rushes forward the lightning bolts coming forth in a twister of purple as they envelop the bits around Mega Man W in a web of death+
griefgathering (21:27:45): @Attackers?
cubey@aol.pl (21:27:48): Approved
tengusaur (21:27:58): Asagi: "...Well Walt. Despite all this, she still loved it."
cubey@aol.pl (21:28:12): Blue One's slashes are... blocked by the bit shields!
cubey@aol.pl (21:28:15): Totally no sold.
Fri Freeman (21:28:35): Walt turns his attention toward Master Albert. "Now let's fight for the world an eldritch ebomination love... what a weird reason to fight." Walt leads the 8th genoace team to charge toward Master Albert, firing their guns all the way.+
cubey@aol.pl (21:28:41): Albert: "A mere human, reaching out towards a god? Do not make me laugh!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:29:02): Albert: "A perfect storm!" He summons plasma cyclones - similar to Aeolus', but much larger, and sends them spinning towards Asagi. React!
drascin (21:29:20): Model A: You are not a god, Albert!
Ashe: And these mortals are going to show you!
griefgathering (21:29:23): Purple Heart: "*Go with this blessing!" Auras of light appear around the allied units as the goddess raises her hand. With that, the attackers' qualities should be enhanced - speed, power, resilience and all!+
drascin (21:29:54): #Asagi?
tengusaur (21:30:02): Asagi: "You're not a god. You're a megalomaniac!" Blue One kicks away, trying to avoid the cyclones by quickly moving around in circles. +
cubey@aol.pl (21:30:07): Albert weaves between Walt's attacks - and fires a spread of homing lasers, aimed at all the mobile suits! React.
cubey@aol.pl (21:30:23): You have your own problems, Ashe, so rejected.
cubey@aol.pl (21:30:55): Because Albert uses the shields to tank your attack as well - and counters by charging forward, the megamerged form's tail extended as he intents to impale you!
cubey@aol.pl (21:31:05): Albert: "The blade of judgement falls upon you!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:31:07): React, Ashe.
drascin (21:31:20): Ashe: And we refuse your judgement! A-Trans!
cubey@aol.pl (21:31:59): Thanks to the blessing, Asagi manages to avoid the cyclones' centers. They still cut over Blue One's surface however.
cubey@aol.pl (21:32:05): Dmaage starts to seriously accumulate now...
cubey@aol.pl (21:32:09): *Damage
drascin (21:33:15): *The shape of Aeolus flares up as Mega Man W's lowers to rush Ashe, flying straight up in a spiral powered by wind and anger - if Albert wants to follow, he'll have to show his back to the others, which is Ashe's idea here...+
cubey@aol.pl (21:34:29): Albert chases after Ashe, thinking nothing of exposing himself! However he is getting close, and with the damage you've taken so far, if he hits that will be the end of it!
cubey@aol.pl (21:34:35): Kei, Optimus, Neptune - go.
Fri Freeman (21:36:10): Walt's team strafe right and left, their shield raised upfront, as they continue their charge ands shoot.+
Fri Freeman (21:36:52): Walt: "We're might be human, but that's why we' re going to defeat you something something." Yes he says something something
VJockey (21:36:55): *Once more the Autobots open fire. Except for Optimus. He transforms and drives at Albert at full speed, transforming at the last crucial seconds to deliver a Nep-Enhanced Swing!+
cubey@aol.pl (21:38:20): Albert gives the genoaces only brief attention, but that's enough to blow them off their feet, cutting off limbs and destroying guns with fast and accurate lasers!
cubey@aol.pl (21:38:46): Albert: "A human is powerless to act against a god. You cannot change the world you live in. You accept it as it is."
tormterra (21:39:35): * "We'll gain nothing from charging Albert himself. We need to snipe out those shields to be able to attack him. They move fast, but Purple-2 can predict their trajectory. Genoace team and Autobots, fire at the locations I give you to start shooting them out from around." +
griefgathering (21:39:42): *"We've come too far now...! Delta Slash!" Purple Heart launches a series of three blade waves at Albert! The first creates a cube around the target, which the second and third strike to detonate!+
cubey@aol.pl (21:40:14): The shields are in front of Albert - but he suddenly drops them all.
tengusaur (21:40:14): Asagi: "Watch out, Genoace squad. Hate to admit it, but he really is much more powerful than you."
drascin (21:40:17): Model A: For all your talk, we seem to be giving you more trouble than you expected, Albert!
VJockey (21:40:19): "If you believe that then you have already lost."
cubey@aol.pl (21:40:34): Albert: "Grant of destiny - infinite cannon. This will be the doom of you!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:40:49): The bits form two rings - each one firing a gigantic laser blast.
Fri Freeman (21:41:05): Walt: "Well, I guess we're only human."
cubey@aol.pl (21:41:07): The blasts engulf the shots that are fired in Albert's direction and look piddly in comparison.
cubey@aol.pl (21:41:16): And threaten to destroy the people who fired them as well!
cubey@aol.pl (21:41:25): Neptune, Autobots, react!
cubey@aol.pl (21:41:47): This is bad, really bad...
griefgathering (21:43:09): *Purple Heart casts her own buff spell on herself as she ascends rapidly in hopes of evading! She's not going to risk tanking that.+
VJockey (21:43:28): *Optimus is going to have to throw himself aside painfully to avoid that incoming blast, Wheeljack makes good use of his arm-thrusters to dive tackle Blaster out of the way!+
cubey@aol.pl (21:45:19): The beams throw the autobots down.
cubey@aol.pl (21:45:39): Purple Heart likewise manages to avoid getting hit by them directly - but you feel very uncomfortable as they zip by close.
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:00): Albert: "The Model W cannot be defeated. Cannot be opposed."
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:09): ???: "... Cinnamon rolls."
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:20): Albert: "What?"
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:32): ???: "Things like cinnamon rolls. They are nice."
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:46): The megamerged Albert turns around - towards the Waltspawn.
cubey@aol.pl (21:46:49): Who stands up, shakily.
cubey@aol.pl (21:47:19): Waltspawn: "I was given food and it tasted overwhelming. But its taste... is good."
cubey@aol.pl (21:47:30): Waltspawn: "This is one of my first experiences with this world."
cubey@aol.pl (21:47:41): Waltspawn: "It will stay as it is."
cubey@aol.pl (21:47:50): Albert: "Who are you to decide that, pitiful creature!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:47:59): He fires more spread lasers!
drascin (21:48:00): Ashe: ...are you going to try to eat the world again, now?
tengusaur (21:48:10): Asagi: "Get out of here! Quickly!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:48:21): Waltspawn: "No. Thank you, for everything."
cubey@aol.pl (21:48:34): She already starts running forward - the lasers aim for her body, but suddenly twist and turn away at the very last moment!
cubey@aol.pl (21:48:43): Albert: "What have you...?!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:49:06): The bits form a multi layered shield as the Waltspawn leaps at Master Albert in a gravity defying leap. Something glistening in her hand.
cubey@aol.pl (21:49:14): Waltspawn: "I'm sorry. It worked good but I took it."
cubey@aol.pl (21:49:18): The bomb's detonator.
cubey@aol.pl (21:49:27): And a small block of energon, right next to it!
cubey@aol.pl (21:49:59): Waltspawn: "It's okay, what you said. Walt..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:50:14): The two are engulfed by a miniature black sphere - like the domes, but a much smaller one!
cubey@aol.pl (21:50:28): One that immediately becomes bright with the bomb's explosion!
cubey@aol.pl (21:50:40): The sphere disappears, and something drops down from it.
Fri Freeman (21:50:49): Walt:"..."
cubey@aol.pl (21:50:50): It's Master Albert. Smoking, his form damaged...
cubey@aol.pl (21:50:54): But alive.
cubey@aol.pl (21:51:07): The bits crackle with electricity. Over half of them gone, the rest moving erraticaly.
drascin (21:51:16): Model A: He's not done yet!
griefgathering (21:51:21): Nep raises arm to shield her eyes when the blast happens, but after that...
cubey@aol.pl (21:51:24): Albert: "You didn't manage to kill me. Of course not..."
drascin (21:51:26): Ashe: Then we will have to finish him ourselves!
cubey@aol.pl (21:51:36): Albert: "Ashe. You are my genes."
cubey@aol.pl (21:51:44): Albert: "Assisting my plan is your destiny."
cubey@aol.pl (21:51:52): He raises a hand towards her.
cubey@aol.pl (21:52:15): Albert: "Cease your action. This world will be better off rebuilt. Don't you agree?"
drascin (21:52:29): Ashe walks over
tengusaur (21:52:33): Asagi: "..."
tormterra (21:53:00): Kei: "Ashe..."
drascin (21:53:02): She looks at the extended hand for a few seconds...
drascin (21:53:14): And grins
cubey@aol.pl (21:53:17): The eyes behind Albert's visor shine expectantly.
drascin (21:53:31): And shoots Albert straight in the chest
drascin (21:53:52): Not enough to kill him, but that will definitely have given him the message
cubey@aol.pl (21:53:57): Albert: "?!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:54:06): The Megamerged body is thrown back, damaged further!
cubey@aol.pl (21:54:23): Albert: "Fool! This is the end for you!"
drascin (21:54:27): Ashe: Sorry, Albvert. I don't like your destiny. We're going to make a new one. All together. You can stand down or not be in it. Your choice.
tengusaur (21:54:33): Asagi: "You couldn't expect her to join you after all you've done!"
cubey@aol.pl (21:54:41): Everyone, move now!
drascin (21:54:52): Model A: Heck yeah! You go Ashe! Tell him!
cubey@aol.pl (21:54:54): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvmXbAob28Q
VJockey (21:56:12): *With this its time for one more push. Optimus and Wheeljack transform and rush at Albert full speed for a little hit and run!+
Fri Freeman (21:56:53): Walt and his team fires at Albert from their damaged Genoaces+
tengusaur (21:57:10): * Asagi rushes towards Master Albert, as if ready to strike him with his katana... But no, at the last moment he throws the sword up, and swings the whip-like coil instead, to grab and hild him in place! Then he grabs the sword with his free hand, and stabs right at Albert! +
cubey@aol.pl (21:57:27): Albert counters by summoning a flaming ball - however the bits crackle ominously and the attack visibly overloads them! Regardless the ball explodes in the ground, sending pillars of fire to interrupt the Autobots, and Asagi.
cubey@aol.pl (21:57:45): At the same time, the bits fire lasers in Walt's direction, though the barrage is short as they fry one by one.
cubey@aol.pl (21:57:49): React, everyone.
cubey@aol.pl (21:58:19): (I mean Walt, Asagi and Optimus)
tengusaur (21:59:37): * Asagi: "His defenses are worn thin. Soon he'll be done with!" He dodges away from the flames in what seems to be the safest direction here - upwards! There's only that high those columns of fire can go! +
cubey@aol.pl (22:00:15): The flames' range is limited, and Albert is entangled! Being bound is nothing new for him, but he seems very distressed by it, trying to wrestle free - and failing.
drascin (22:00:16): *Ashe is going to help the assault, the four Mega Men that Albert had duped suddenly coming for him one after another in a sequential combo - Aeolus's winds pushng the bits away, Atlas's mighty shots getting through the barriers, Thetis's spinning staff deflecting lasers, and Siarnaq's tricksy, precise knives aiming for Mega Man W's stomach, in the revenge that the four could not execute themselves+
griefgathering (22:01:02): "This has been a long mission. You won't stand between me and the pudding that awaits!" *Purple Heart zips around, trailing white feathers, before transforming yet again...into black and purple jet. "Target locked on...fire!" A barrage of homing missiles and a gigantic laser beam are fired in Albert's direction!+
VJockey (22:01:07): *The Autobots haven't fought this long and adapted to their alt modes without knowing some evasive driving. Pedal to the metal and screaming tires, Optimus and Wheeljack swerve as best as they can through the fires. But if worse comes to worse they'll drive straight through to give Albert one hell of an impression on their bumpers.+
cubey@aol.pl (22:03:01): The transformers ride through the fire, managing to evade the pillars and drive their way through Albert - thanks to interference run by Ashe!
cubey@aol.pl (22:03:38): With the bits out of the question and the barrier no longer functioning, Albert is critically injured by the cannonade from Neptune and Walt and his men.
cubey@aol.pl (22:04:30): The lasers fired towards Walt... suddenly swerve off target at the last moment.
cubey@aol.pl (22:04:40): How did that happen?
cubey@aol.pl (22:05:30): Albert: "No. It will not happen. My defeat? Impossible!"
cubey@aol.pl (22:05:56): He manages to pry open the whip's coils, and in his hand - suddenly a beam saber. A giant saber shaped like a V symbol, which he brings down on Ashe!
cubey@aol.pl (22:05:58): Ashe, react!
drascin (22:06:01): Ashe: Nothing is impossible!
drascin (22:06:13): Ashe: Now leave our worls alone!
drascin (22:08:12): *And after everyone else took down Albert's shields and battered him around, Mega Man A, Albert's favorite creation, is the one attacked in the end. And without hesitation she dives forward, dodging the sword entirely too close - and is suddenly right there, tackling him through the air, trading hits with him, shouting. The two Mega Men fighting for the destiny of the world - what Albert had wanted... but definitely not like Albert had wanted. Even as they fall, Mega Man A shoots everything she has, and everything she doesn't have, emptying all her A-Energy reserves in a massive barrage of lasers and lightning and plasma as the two scream through the air+
cubey@aol.pl (22:08:51): Albert: "W..."
cubey@aol.pl (22:09:19): The evasive maneuver was very close - but Ashe manages to do it. And she counters with a giant barrage of all kinds of shots.
cubey@aol.pl (22:09:24): Albert: "Whyyyyy?!"
cubey@aol.pl (22:09:47): The blinding beams overwhelm his body, showing off only a dark silhouette that is obliterated.
drascin (22:09:58): Ashe lands on the surface of Ouroboros on one knee, panting
cubey@aol.pl (22:10:07): Is it over?
cubey@aol.pl (22:10:19): Suddenly, explosions start to shake Ouroboros.
drascin (22:10:22): Ashe: Hah. Haha. That did it. I... think I overdid that a bit, though...
cubey@aol.pl (22:10:30): The whole thing is coming down!
drascin (22:10:33): Model A: Ashe:?
cubey@aol.pl (22:10:44): Walt, you feel a presence that just saved you disappear.
cubey@aol.pl (22:10:59): As well as a feeling of gratitude. And the last good-bye.
drascin (22:11:06): And Ashe suddenly de-megamerges, and kinda faints. That was rather more shots than she should have put out in that amount of time
cubey@aol.pl (22:11:23): "Get on!"
tengusaur (22:11:37): Asagi: "We must get out of here. As expected, this place was held together by Albert's will!"
cubey@aol.pl (22:11:38): A shuttle appears from under the Ouroboros' huge bulk!
drascin (22:11:45): Model A: Ashe?! Someone get her!
drascin (22:11:50): (they can't hear you, Model A)
cubey@aol.pl (22:11:56): It's the same pilot who delivered you here... and the same shuttle? That patch job looks really rough...
tormterra (22:12:27): Kei: "Everybody left you alone to fix it? Somebody grab Ashe and let's get on before it's too late."
VJockey (22:12:33): [Optimus is going to go get Ashe! Even if he can't hear Model A, he wasn't going to leave anyone behind.]
griefgathering (22:13:27): Purple Heart: "I wonder how that shuttle was fixed, but for now I'm glad it's functioning..."
tengusaur (22:13:32): Looks like Optimus has this part handled. All that's left for Asagi is to enter the shuttle himself, then - and make sure nobody stays behind.
cubey@aol.pl (22:15:12): The shuttle is shakey, and it's obvious it cannot stand in air for long enough...
cubey@aol.pl (22:15:27): But all you have to do is get away from the Biometal before it explodes!
cubey@aol.pl (22:15:40): And the rest is... well, you already had one rough landing, what's another one?
cubey@aol.pl (22:15:42): MISSION COMPLETE
.
