tengusaur (00:33:34): It seemed to be another day like usual...
tengusaur (00:33:48): But then, suddenly, an alarm goes of over all Unity Group bases!
tengusaur (00:34:15): Roland: "We received an SOS signal from the Shin Tanoura research camp. They are under attack!"
tengusaur (00:34:46): Roland: "The enemy power is overwhelming. Everyone who can, assemble into a squad ASAP and help them!"
Overman Zappa (00:35:35): Well, that's as good a time as any for Garrod to finally start pulling his weight
ZebulonCrispi (00:35:55): Suma: "And here I thought this would be a dull evening!"
tengusaur (00:35:58): Huffman: "I presume you heard about the recent incident at Shin Tanoura? With the black dome appearing over the whole city and all. We still have no idea what's going on there, but there are reports that its energy readings are slowly rising."
ZebulonCrispi (00:36:01): Off to the hangar!
Ginkan SK (00:36:24): Raquel was in the middle of the shower as she bolts out changing she doesn't have much time to dry off she's suited up and already maine for her machine. "I can't even get one day off! The one day I give myself a week off training and this is the day something explodes!"
tengusaur (00:36:33): Huffman: "So watch out and be ready for the unexpected! Who knows what suprises you might uncover? Heh..."
tengusaur (00:36:42): At the same time, at Saotome Labs!
TormTerra (00:36:54): Kei had been running some tests in Purple-2 as the call went out, making her a natural choice for taking up the call to arms. She just needed to turn off the diagnostics and actually launch
Fri Freeman (00:37:03): Walt: "Just when we're at duty..."
Meraxa (00:37:08): ...Ken isn't sure whether he's being let out of his cell for this, means they're desperate and sending anyone - even someone still being punished - or if this means he's officially become a... oh... whats the word...? Ah, he'll remember it, he muses as he boards on the orange, or yellow red as some would say, genoace.
tengusaur (00:37:19): The very large guards, together with Ryouma, leads their most recent prisoner, the infamous terrorist Hayato Jin, into a hangar.
tengusaur (00:37:36): A hangar where three fighter-like craft are waiting. As well as two men.
tengusaur (00:38:13): Dr Saotome: "So this is Hayato Jin, huh? A man fitting for the Getter. And not a moment too early. THEY have made their move."
Fri Freeman (00:38:41): Walt: "Oh well, we might die anytime, why not today? 8th genoace team, launching."
Captain Gardock (00:38:52): Ryoma: "We noticed, gramps! Let's get moving!"
TormTerra (00:39:19): Kei: "Purple-2, launching. Give me an update on the rest of the squad once it's formed."
tengusaur (00:39:27): Saotome: "Ryouma, put Hayato into the Jaguar unit. Make sure he's restrained so he won't escape. Tatsuhito, help him."
kamikasei (00:39:40): Hayato: "You were ready for those things. What is this place?"
tengusaur (00:40:10): Saotome: "After that, take the Eagle and Bear units respectively."
tengusaur (00:40:30): Tatsuhito: "Alright! Count on me, father!"
Fri Freeman (00:40:41): Geno: "Don't say that lieutenant! Az manages to get retired after all! And I managed to get married! Nothing bad happened the last mission!"
sketchbookfiend (00:40:50): Ryuichi summons up into Aotatsu and launches out with everyone else.
kamikasei (00:40:51): He's sufficiently confused about what's going on that he doesn't resist... much.
Captain Gardock (00:41:30): Ryoma grins as he straps Hayato in. "You're a smart guy, this won't be too hard to get used to. We're gonna fight together."
Fri Freeman (00:41:39): Alice: "Yes, pleased to meet you, lieutenant. This is my first mission."
tengusaur (00:41:51): Saotome: "This is the Saotome Lab! Soon you will control the work of my lifetime against the enemies of all humanity."
Meraxa (00:41:57): Ken: Jinx yourself like that, and something will. *...Walt, 8th Squadron has a tagalong mech.*
tengusaur (00:42:01): Saotome: "You three. Pilot the Getter Robo!"
tengusaur (00:42:16): At the same time...
tengusaur (00:42:39): It doesn't take far from Sakihama base for the Unity Group people to arrive at the research camp.
tengusaur (00:43:02): You can see the black, opaque dome, which covers the whole area where the town used to be, from afar.
tengusaur (00:43:15): And a research camp on its edge...
tengusaur (00:43:22): A camp that is currently under attack!
tengusaur (00:43:45): Several ESUN mecha are fighting against the enemies, but a few more are already destroyed by the vicious monsters...
tengusaur (00:43:50): And what those monsters are?
ZebulonCrispi (00:43:50): Suma: "Well isn't that a sight."
tengusaur (00:43:53): Well...
tengusaur (00:44:17): One of them is flying over the battlefield, like a warship. Another is emerging from a nearby lake, wrecking havoc at enemies from the ground.
tengusaur (00:44:21): They resemble cyborg dinosaurs.
tengusaur (00:44:28): Flying Mechasaurus
http://i60.tinypic.com/2vcjggx.jpg
Mechasaurus Jiga
http://i62.tinypic.com/106ety1.jpg
sketchbookfiend (00:44:53): Ryuichi: "...Huh."
tengusaur (00:45:17): The camp itself is being quickly evacuated, but there are still people in it! If you don't do something soon...
Overman Zappa (00:45:21): Garrod is a bit overwhelemed. Everyone else has a crew or some crazy magic robot. He's just a kid on his own. Oh well, time to prove his worth. "Gundam X! Taking off!"
TormTerra (00:45:31): Kei: "What are those things?" It looked like some kid stuck random bits of robots and "cool" animals together
ZebulonCrispi (00:45:31): Suma: "Shall we slay us a few dragons, then?"
Meraxa (00:46:03): Ken: Those aren't dragons. They're dinosaurs! ...Cyborg dinosaurs.
Ginkan SK (00:46:06): Raquel is now scrambling into her machine, she's harnessed in the amps some on line and she gets ready to launch. She lauynches from the base and makes fo the camp she pauses at the dome and doesn't seem to like the look of it. Raquel's already moving in to support the remaining grunts. it's their job to help them right? "Dinosaurs? What the heck is this....?"
Ginkan SK (00:46:27): Raquel: "Is this your fault somehow isn't it Ken."
TormTerra (00:46:35): Kei: "Those things aren't dinosaurs...One of them has tentacles."
Fri Freeman (00:46:37): Alice: "And we have the heroes of Nora! We'll do fine, lieutenant."
sketchbookfiend (00:46:37): Ryuichi: "Dinosaurs huh."
Meraxa (00:46:53): Ken: Cyborg dinosaurs. You can add whatever when its cyborgs.
sketchbookfiend (00:46:53): Ryuichi: "Sure why not, we got weird enough stuff."
tengusaur (00:47:14): The enemies roar as they smash nearby abandoned buildings, tents, and wrecked mecha around!
Meraxa (00:47:18): Ken: ...Though, between this and the black sphere, I'd almost think it were a plot of the Great Black Void...
TormTerra (00:47:19): Kei: "But it's as much octopus as dinosaur!"
tengusaur (00:47:29): It doesn't look like the allies' shots do much to them...
tengusaur (00:47:40): It's time to do something here!
tengusaur (00:47:41): Enemy List: Flying Mechasaurus, Mechasaurus Jiga
Ally List: Geonace x5 (available for supports)
Initiative Order: Garrod, Walt, Ken, Raquel, Suma, Ryuichi,
Kei
tengusaur (00:47:50): ( Garrod, Walt, Ken, go)
Ginkan SK (00:48:00): (Can we support the Genoaces to try to protect them.)
tengusaur (00:48:15): (also the Getter Team can launch, though they don;t reach the battlefield just yet!)
tengusaur (00:48:28): (do that when they're under attack by an action)
Fri Freeman (00:49:15): Walt: "Okay team, don't do anything stupid!"
Overman Zappa (00:49:58): Garrod is pretty shocked by the dinosaurs too, but be damned if he's backing out. Taking aim with the beam rifle, Garrod opens up with a few simple shots to build up the morale stat we totally don't use here! Pew pew pew+
Meraxa (00:50:05): Ken: Octopuses don't have that many arms! *And there goes Ken, firing away at the nearest Jiga with total abandon... Aside for the evacuees he's covering+
tengusaur (00:50:22): (pick your target Garrod)
Fri Freeman (00:50:36): Walt: "Follow his lead! Spread out, keep your distance, and focus fire on the tentacled beast!"
Captain Gardock (00:50:54): Meanwhile! Ryoma and Tatsuhito are in position, and the three jets are loaded onto launching ramps!
Fri Freeman (00:50:58): The third genoace team starts opening fire at the tentacled cyborg mechasaurus thingy.+
tengusaur (00:51:43): The shots by four Genoaces don't seem to do much damage to the Jiga... But they definitely grab its attention! The mechasaurus roars and extends a whole bunch of tentacles, trying to grab them and then swing them around into the ground! (Ken, Walt, react)
Captain Gardock (00:51:46): Ryoma: "Alright! I've been waiting all day for this!"
Overman Zappa (00:51:58): (Dhuurrrr.... one of the Jiga's
tengusaur (00:52:14): (there's only one Jiga)
tengusaur (00:52:42): Garrod's beam shots hit the Jiga, leaving some burn marks on its hide! Still, the monster is both huge and very tough...
Overman Zappa (00:52:44): (Well that one then)
tengusaur (00:53:11): Also, the other Mechasaurus takes this opportunity to fire several missiles from its mechanical "head" at the Gundam X! (react)
kamikasei (00:53:23): Hayato's strapped in to the Jaguar's cockpit, looking about him in bewilderment. It's like the controls were designed by a crazy person, for crazy people.
Captain Gardock (00:53:36): Ryoma: "Tatsuhito, Hayato! Let's go!"
Meraxa (00:53:40): Ken: Hmph! *Ken tries to dodge, testing the flexibility and reflexes of the creature as he goes on to attempt strafing around it+
tengusaur (00:53:53): Tatsuhito: "I've got your back, Ryouma!"
tengusaur (00:54:08): (Raquel and Suma can move, the Getter Team can move as well when ready)
kamikasei (00:54:18): Hayato: "What the hell is this thing? What do you expect me to do in a machine I've never seen before!"
Overman Zappa (00:54:24): Garrods options are few, so he tries to flee from them, fortunately he catches some air support from the AirMaster, taking shots at the missiles as well.
Overman Zappa (00:54:35): Witz: "Did you think we'd just let you go alone. Sorry we're late!"
Overman Zappa (00:54:42): +
ZebulonCrispi (00:54:52): * Big monster = big swords! Sefet charges the Jiga, claymore in hand, and starts cleaving at tentacles like there's no tomorrow. +
Captain Gardock (00:55:41): "Heh, ask Tatsuhito or the old man. I'm just going by instinct! LAUNCHING!" The hangar's bay doors open, and all three Get Machines take off at a ridiculously high rate of acceleration!
tengusaur (00:56:06): Tatsuhito: "It's easy, just... urgh...!"
Ginkan SK (00:56:07): *Raquel sees the Genoaces going after the tentacle horror and she also sees Ken s well. "Ken Isn't that thing a friend of yours?" She breaks into a race for the tentacle one to one make sure to cut the tentacles or force them to drop any Genoaces they may get their tentacles on. She's already pojecing ki and it's got enough force that it can with her striker cut through a mecha's armor she lets otu wordless shout s she does so she does not /like/ tentacle creatures oh hell no not when she's got feedback system built into her mech.+
tengusaur (00:56:37): The tentacle monster turns out to be surprisingly fast, and it still grabs Ken with one tentacle! The tentacle then gets cut into severely by Suma, which means that the monster is annoyed and tries to slam into her with a Ken-mace! (react)
tengusaur (00:57:27): Witz helps Garrod with shooting down a few of the missiles, but they still explode close enough to shake the kid around in his cockpit! Gundam X is pretty much unharmed though.
Meraxa (00:58:05): Ken: Nnnngh, not the time for jokes! *Ken remarks as he's tossed about, flailing*
Captain Gardock (00:58:21): "Urk... you weren't kidding when you said these things had some kick!" The extreme G-forces as the ships ascend make Ryoma mildly uncomfortable as well.
Overman Zappa (00:58:37): Garrod: "Th-thanks! I appreciate that."
Witz: "Glad you do, kid! Don't go getting that busted up nowl Gundams aren't cheap."
Captain Gardock (00:59:00): Still...
tengusaur (00:59:22): Tatsuhito: "I'm still okay...! Let's do this, Ryouma!"
ZebulonCrispi (00:59:29): * Suma drops the sword - although it keeps slashing on its own - and turns around to catch Ken as he gets flailed in her direction! At least, she can block the attack, and at best, she can get him free of Jiga's grasp. +
tengusaur (01:01:12): Between Raquel pummelling the tentacle dinosaur ferociously and Suma grabbing Ken, all the caught Genoaces are freed before they can suffer any heavy damage! Though Ken's landing on top of Sefet is kinda heavy...
Captain Gardock (01:01:31): * Ryoma is... no longer flying in formation! A red jet comes into view of the battlefield, as it dive-bombs it, firing missiles. Combining sounded kind of complicated when hey could just ATTACK MINDLESSLY. -
ZebulonCrispi (01:02:14): "Urf." Suma tosses Ken's Genoace off of her like a sack of flour.
Fri Freeman (01:02:29): Walt: "Are you alright, kid!?"
tengusaur (01:02:35): Also, the Jiga turns out to have another trick in its book! It approaches Amazon with surprising agility, and a giant drill emerges from its chest! It tries to pierce you! (react)
ZebulonCrispi (01:02:47): Suma: "The bigger they are, the more I get to cut them."
kamikasei (01:02:54): Hayato's pressed back into his seat by the acceleration! It doesn't look like his controls are actually active yet, so he's carefully watching the indicators to try to decipher what's going on.
Meraxa (01:03:05): Ken: Oof! Why I- Ah!
Meraxa (01:03:10): #Raquel
tengusaur (01:03:14): (approved)
tengusaur (01:03:43): Ryouma's missiles explode on the flying Mechasaurus' surface, which grabs the creature's attention! It tries to grab the new, incoming red jet with its dinosaur maws and rip it apart! (react/continue?)
Fri Freeman (01:04:05): Walt:"Oh, no, not a drill! I've got that enough in basic training!"
Ginkan SK (01:04:05): *Raquel to the Genoaces "Keep together and focus your attacks." She then find she's under attack by a horrible thing wanting to poke her with it's drill. "...For the love of..." Raquel suddenly finds she's got help however as she does react trying to flip out of the wya.+
Meraxa (01:04:12): Ken flips his machine with a surprising grace, given what it is, before pushing the boosters as hard as he can. Why? To tank that drill with his own machine of course. Not like they haven't got more where that came from+
tengusaur (01:04:13): (Ryuichi and Kei can move)
Overman Zappa (01:04:58): Garrod: "Holy crap that thing is fast!" A boy who spoke too soon.
TormTerra (01:05:47): * Kei was biting her lip, trying to take stock of the situation. None of her training had covered giant monsters, still some things were obvious. "Ryuichi, try to get the attention of the tentacled one and turn it away from Suma. Suma, try to use the largest of your swords to attack its neck. Hopefully it's enough like a dinosaur to die if decapitated." +
Captain Gardock (01:05:59): These things are definitely built to maneuver, and he makes a hard, painful turn out of immediate destruction!
Ginkan SK (01:06:12): Raquel "These things are not exctly cheap fodder...who the hell makes cyborg Kaiju?"
tengusaur (01:06:17): (Suma can move if she takes that action)
sketchbookfiend (01:06:37): Ryuichi: Already on it! *Aotatsu is going to bullrush towards the Jiga and then leap to try and smash it's shield into the side of it's face.+
Captain Gardock (01:06:38): Tatsuhito: "Ryoma, the Get Machines' weapon systems aren't powerful enough for this! We have to combine!"
Captain Gardock (01:07:08): Ryoma: "Oh, right... haha..."
ZebulonCrispi (01:07:22): Suma: "I like the way you think!"
tengusaur (01:07:58): Raquel gets away from the attacking drill safely... Because Ken gets in its way! The drill shreds his Genoace's armor, dealing really severe damage to it and punching a large hole in it!
ZebulonCrispi (01:08:13): * Rather than use a single sword, Sefet leaps up towards the neck directly, all six swords detaching and forming into a ring around it!
ZebulonCrispi (01:08:38): * If Ryuichi's gambit is successful, a buzzsaw of mech and swords will be hurtling towards the exposed neck. +
tengusaur (01:08:47): Ken's machine is barely holding together... And it's holding together only because Ryuichi throws the giant off-balance with his shield slam!
tengusaur (01:09:03): But now Aotatsu is on the way of the whirring drill too... (Ryuichi react)
Captain Gardock (01:09:14): * Now to do things properly! The three machines get back into a straight line formation with another pass over the battlefield. They're also getting closer together...
Fri Freeman (01:09:27): Walt: "Gah! Kid!"
Meraxa (01:09:36): Ken: ...Heh, better than I thought.
Captain Gardock (01:09:37): Ryoma: "CHAAAAAAANGE! GETTER ONE!"
tengusaur (01:10:03): The mechasaurus raises a lot of tentacles, using them to block the incoming swords and protect its neck! However, many of the tentacles are bleeding, and two of them get severed.
ZebulonCrispi (01:10:16): Suma: "Hah! You're a tenacious bastard, aren't you?"
tengusaur (01:10:30): But now it's trying to use those tentacles to grab... A large piece of rubble, and throw it into Purple Two's direction! (react)
tengusaur (01:10:42): Either the creature knew where the order came from, or it perceived it as an easy target!
Overman Zappa (01:10:46): Garrod: "Are they really doing to crash into eachother!?"
sketchbookfiend (01:10:52): *Aotatsu puts his Shield between him and the drill, edging it just so to try and have it slide past him with the buff of a water current swirling over the shield's surface.+
Meraxa (01:11:14): Ken: Shi-! Someone get that-!
Ginkan SK (01:11:21): # Purple 2
tengusaur (01:11:29): (approved)
Captain Gardock (01:11:44): After a physicaly inexplicable transformation sequence, a new mech drops into the melee!
Ginkan SK (01:11:56): *Raquel moves int to attempt to flying leap at the large chuck of rubble and punch it into fragments+
tengusaur (01:12:02): Mechasaurus: "GROOOOARRR?!"
tengusaur (01:12:07): (translation: "unpossible")
Overman Zappa (01:12:17): Even Witz whistles.
Garrod: "Those little things... literally just made that!?"
ZebulonCrispi (01:12:23): Suma: "Well, well, what have we here?"
Captain Gardock (01:12:47): And it's that same mechasaurus Getter Robo charges, punching it in the face! +
Captain Gardock (01:13:11): Ryoma: "Let's see how this works!"
Meraxa (01:13:14): Ken: T-That... it combined!
Meraxa (01:13:26): There is a slight, childlike glee in Ken's voice.
tengusaur (01:13:33): The drill slides off Aotatsu's shield, but it still sends a buttload of sparks around and leaves a deep gash in it! If the creature attacked you for longer, it'd be bad...
tengusaur (01:14:34): Getter Robo rushes in, punching through the incoming missiles and, among the explosions, hitting the flying Mechasaurus into one of its heads, drawing blood and knocking a few teeth out!
tengusaur (01:15:25): Raquel punches the large block into tiny, useless pieces that fly everywhere around and don't really deal any damage to anything.
Fri Freeman (01:15:30): Walt: "I saw various mechs combine into one before. In the scrapyard, into a pile. But this one is really different."
Captain Gardock (01:15:31): Tatsuhito: "Ryoma... you have actual weapons..." Somebody's rough-and-tumble fighting style isn't going so well for his injured copilot.
TormTerra (01:15:50): * Immediately looking away from the sensors, Kei hit the button to her vulcans while pressing the thrust to try to push herself up and out of the path of the rubble. Hopefully it would be enough, reaction times were worse than if she'd been focused on piloting rather than data management. +
Captain Gardock (01:16:21): Ryoma: "I'll get to that later!"
kamikasei (01:16:36): Hayato: "Ahahaha... HA HA HA!"
tengusaur (01:16:42): This means Kei is undamaged, obviously, and her vulcans hit the tentacle monstrosity, though they don't do that much damage to it.
Ginkan SK (01:17:00): (OOC BIP BRB
kamikasei (01:17:07): Suddenly a bunch of bizarre stuff from those stolen files makes sense!
Captain Gardock (01:17:14): Tatsuhito: "Ah... well... you're all with Unity Group, aren't you?"
Meraxa (01:17:24): Ken: W-We are! Sir!
sketchbookfiend (01:17:26): Ryuichi: "That we would be yeah."
Overman Zappa (01:17:40): Garrod: "For the most part."
tengusaur (01:17:48): (Environment description, since people ask for it - you are in a temporary camp set on the edge of where the city used to be, among abandoned buildings)
tengusaur (01:18:10): (The camp consists mostly of tents and prefab constructions)
tengusaur (01:19:07): And then, suddenly, you all receive a radio message!
Captain Gardock (01:19:21): Tatsuhito: "I'm Tatsuhito Saotome. There will be more of these reptiloid enemies... my father designed this super robot to combat them. Right now, our goals are the same. My comrades and I would be honored to fight with you."
tengusaur (01:19:49): Huffman: "It's starting! The energy readings from the dome are spiking. Keep your eyes peeled, who knows what will happen now?"
tengusaur (01:20:09): You can see a ripple on the side of the previously unmoving dome!
ZebulonCrispi (01:20:19): Suma: "Marvelous! This many against only two foes was hardly sporting."
tengusaur (01:20:21): You can feel a sort of a pulse in the atmosphere...
tengusaur (01:20:44): And out of the dome, something comes out...
tengusaur (01:20:49): It looks like... A hand.
TormTerra (01:21:09): Kei: "This isn't a game, there are civilians there!"
tengusaur (01:21:10): A giant, fleshy hand.
tengusaur (01:21:11): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyJMHCKsUNg
Meraxa (01:21:13): Ken: Of course, we... we... what is that?
tengusaur (01:21:25): Soon, the rest of the body attached to the hand appears.
tengusaur (01:21:49): What emerges looks like... A Genoace. A Genoace made not out of metal, but raw flesh, and bone, and sinew.
Captain Gardock (01:22:00): Ryoma: "What the hell? This is even weirder than the lizards!"
tengusaur (01:22:03): It drops down to all fours and looks around, visibly sniffing like a dog.
Meraxa (01:22:09): Ken: ...Its a... genoace?
tengusaur (01:22:20): And then another creature emerges, also resembling a robot.
tengusaur (01:22:23): But this one...
tengusaur (01:22:28): Is Raquel's Amazon.
tengusaur (01:22:39): And then a third one... But this resembles the Getter-1.
ZebulonCrispi (01:22:44): Suma. "Heheheh... rare are the things in this world which can truly surpise me, but today I found one more."
tengusaur (01:22:55): And several more, one by one. They all look like perverse abominations of your own mecha!
Captain Gardock (01:23:05): Tatsuhito: "What in god's name..."
tengusaur (01:23:07): None of them are flying, all of them are on the ground, looking and sniffing around.
tengusaur (01:23:22): They seem... Curious. They are slowly moving forward, exploring the environment.
Meraxa (01:24:10): Ken: I... don't think they're with the dinosaurs. Whatever they are.
Fri Freeman (01:24:11): Walt: "Huh. What are they doing?"
ZebulonCrispi (01:24:11): @
tengusaur (01:24:12): They move in weird, unnatural manners, twitching, limbs bending in strange ways. But they don't seem aggressive.
Ginkan SK (01:24:14): "We are with the unity group and very well. It's good to have you with us, Mr. Saotome."
tengusaur (01:24:22): (denied, no actions yet)
TormTerra (01:24:31): Rather than shock, Kei felt a distinct sense of discomfort at the sight. That was disgusting and deeply wrong, where did those things come from? "Focus, we're here to prevent civilian casualties and end the threat if possible. If possible, try to get them to fight the dinosaurs."
Ginkan SK (01:24:38): "What in the ... hell why does it look like mine?!
tengusaur (01:24:52): One of the evacuating scientists stares at those things in disbelief. Then he raises a megaphone and says a cliche phrase.
Overman Zappa (01:24:59): Garrod: "Great, weird dinosarus and now weird fleshy robot things. What did I get myself into!?"
tengusaur (01:25:03): Scientist: "We... Ahem. We come in peace."
tengusaur (01:25:11): And then, suddenly, you receive a radio message!
tengusaur (01:25:26): It's full of static, and the voice speaking sounds awkward and almost unrecognizable.
tengusaur (01:25:31): Voice: "Hello."
Meraxa (01:25:49): Ken: ...H-Hello...? Who is this?
sketchbookfiend (01:26:13): Ryuichi: "Wha-"
ZebulonCrispi (01:26:17): Suma: "Friend or foe, creature?"
tengusaur (01:26:55): Genoace pilot: "Y... Yeah, what they said. Hello?" He raises a hand.
tengusaur (01:27:02): The fleshy Gundam X suddenly leaps forward towards the nearest Genoace! Its mouth opens, revealing sharp, bloody teeth! It starts to bite into its prey!
ZebulonCrispi (01:27:25): "Foe, then!" Exactly what she was hoping for.
tengusaur (01:27:29): Genoace pilot: "Aaaaaaargh!"
Captain Gardock (01:27:35): Ryoma: "Foe!" He doesn't sound broken up about it.
kamikasei (01:27:49): Hayato: "If these things don't have a face of their own to show us..."
Meraxa (01:27:52): Ken: Figures!
TormTerra (01:27:52): Kei: "They're hostiles. Keep away, don't let them into melee. I'll keep you updated on their positions."
Captain Gardock (01:27:55): Also he wants to get to know that chick.
tengusaur (01:28:04): Voice: "Dad..."
kamikasei (01:28:08): ("...then it's probably a bad sign".)
tengusaur (01:28:13): Enemy List: Flying Mechasaurus (light damage), Mechasaurus Jiga (light damage), Fleshy Getter, Fleshy Genoace, Fleshy Gundam X, Fleshy Gundam Airmaster, Fleshy Purple Two, Fleshy Amazon, Fleshy Aotatsu, Fleshy Sefet
tengusaur (01:28:26): (Garrod, Walt, Ken, go)
Fri Freeman (01:28:29): Walt: "It greeted us though! What the heck are they?"
sketchbookfiend (01:28:40): Ryuichi: "What again!? Why can't I ever get a mission where it's a good idea to punch things-"
Ginkan SK (01:28:46): (hey is that Genoace's cockpit block gone or is it still a chance get it lose?)
tengusaur (01:28:59): (you could try to save the pilot, yes)
Overman Zappa (01:29:00): Garod: "Are they really on our side? I know nobody has an answer but still, what ARE they?"
Fri Freeman (01:29:01): Walt: "Fire at that... gundam thing! The pilot might still be alive!"
Overman Zappa (01:29:19): Garrod: "Ri-right!"
tengusaur (01:29:32): The other Genoace pilots open fire at the horrible abominations! But since they're Genoaces, they don't do that much to them...
Overman Zappa (01:30:05): As he was shouted at to do, Garrod turns to the abomination Gundam X and starts firing at the thing, soon the Airmaster transforms and supports the beam fire with some of his own.
Meraxa (01:30:15): Ken: On it! *After a brief hesitance of horror, Ken gets into action, opening fire. Despite exactly what Kei just said, he closes to melee - but then, how else can he try to kick the flesh Gundam off an ally?+
tengusaur (01:31:32): Between Garrod's shots and Ken's body slam, the enemy monster is knocked off its prey and falls down to the ground neaby! Its flesh is bloody and mangled... But you can see it starts regrowing in real time!
Overman Zappa (01:31:56): Garrod: "OH gross!"
tengusaur (01:31:59): And Garrod is targetted by the flying Mechasaurus again - which tries to grab Gundam X with its maws this time, and chomp it up! (react)
Captain Gardock (01:32:19): #
tengusaur (01:32:22): (approved)
tengusaur (01:33:15): While Ken is attacked by the Fleshy Aotatsu, which moves forward jerkily, then tries to slam into him repeatedly with twitching arms! (react)
tengusaur (01:33:23): Voice: "I like... Steak..."
Captain Gardock (01:33:50): * Ryoma was promised the chance to kill reptiloids, dammit, and these new freaky things aren't gonna distract him until he's done. "GETTER TOMAHAWK! BOOOOOOOOOMERANG!" Getter Robo pulls a large battleaxe out of its shoulder (somehow), and hurls it at one of the flying Mechasaurus's two necks! +
Overman Zappa (01:34:28): *Garrod scrambles to break free, firing up at it wildly while reaching with his beam saber with the other hand.+
sketchbookfiend (01:34:35): #Ken
tengusaur (01:34:42): (approved)
tengusaur (01:34:54): (Walt and Raquel can move)
Meraxa (01:35:12): Ken: Then here, something nice and hot! *Says the teenage boy, as he thrusts the heat stick - deploying from the Genoace's left arm - into the F!Aotatsu's face+
kamikasei (01:35:33): Hayato watches his monitors carefully. So, that's how the weapons on this thing work...
Ginkan SK (01:36:00): (Okay the Genoace is lose now right?
tengusaur (01:36:06): (yes)
Ginkan SK (01:36:09): (K(
sketchbookfiend (01:36:13): Ryuichi: "Not letting some knockoff take out my friends!" *Aotatsu bolts towards the fake and twists as it gets close to it's side and brings a it's hand around to pierce with heavy ice coated fingers into the monster's back+
tengusaur (01:36:45): Between Ryouma's tomahawk and Garrod's beam saber cutting into the monster's neck, one of the Mechasaurus's heads is severed bloodily and falls to the ground into a mess! One of the fleshy monsters leaps towards it and rips out a few chunks of it, swallowing them nastily...
tengusaur (01:36:50): Garrod is free, at least.
Captain Gardock (01:37:17): Ryoma: "Tch. Not picky eaters, are they?"
Overman Zappa (01:37:57): The Gundam barely makes a sound landing. "Wait... you think we can bait them into eliminating one another?
tengusaur (01:38:29): Then it kicks away the dinosaur head and drops down on all fours, smelling around again. Only it's on all fours the other way, with its back to the ground.
Fri Freeman (01:38:34): Walt: "I don't know, anything's worth a try at this point."
Captain Gardock (01:38:56): Ryoma: "No way! We can take them all at once!"
Ginkan SK (01:39:24): *Raquel sees the Genoace is lose, good okay tht's one less problem to worry about. "Garrod! Nice job!" She's now going to turn bout, and go after the fleshie double of her own machine. Since it's made of flesh? This is where it gets mesn she's attacking vital points like one would a human, and in somewhat some of her moves are very much like a certain Shura's whose dropped in before. She's clearly trying to flat out kill this thing. "YOU THINK YOU CAN COPY ME SO EASILY!"+
Meraxa (01:39:46): Ken: Whatever keeps them down permanently!
tengusaur (01:40:15): Between Ken's counterstrike and Ryuichi's help, the fleshy mech is pierced through the double attacks, blood splattering around! It's flailing its arms around erratically now.
tengusaur (01:40:24): Voice: "T... Tomorrow..."
Fri Freeman (01:40:29): Walt: "Team! Focus fire on that one!"
tengusaur (01:40:30): (Getter team can also move)
Fri Freeman (01:41:14): The genoace fires again and again and again at the downed fleshy mech+
kamikasei (01:42:35): (Are these voices getting any more recognizable? Do they all sound like the same voice?)
tengusaur (01:42:42): Raquel punches the fleshy Amazon repeatedly, but this thing doesn't seem to have any human-like weakpoints, so these strikes are just brute force, ripping tendons and crushing bones! But her opponent is still moving, opens its mouth (Amazon shouldn't even have one!) and tries to bite its enemy's head off!
tengusaur (01:43:16): (they all sound the same, and it's so static-y you can only guess the gender, age, or even species of the speaker)
tengusaur (01:43:21): (Raquel react)
Captain Gardock (01:43:29): * "GETTER WING!" That cape from the image linked technically wasn't there yet but it is now! It doesn't look much like an actual propulsion system, but Getter-1 lifts into the sky all the same, lunging after the wounded flying Mechasaurus. The Tomahawk also seems to have behaved like a boomerang after all, and he catches it before reaching the enemy, taking a hard swing at lopping off the other head. +
tengusaur (01:44:53): Walt and company pepper the fleshy Aotatsu with beam spray fire, ripping more holes in its body! It falls down to the ground in a bloody pile... But that pile is already starting to regenerate back into its former self!
Fri Freeman (01:45:35): Walt: "What is happening here... they were greeting us previously, right? Don't tell me we started another interspecies misunderstanding...."
tengusaur (01:45:42): Also have you forgotten about Jiga? Hopefully not, because the Mechasaurus is now stomping forward, trying to grab them all with its tentacles again! (react)
tengusaur (01:45:46): As for the Getter...
tengusaur (01:47:17): The tomahawk cuts through the Mechasaurus' other neck! Without the fleshy heads, its main body crashes down towards the ground and explodes! But it's not fully over... The middle, fully mechanical head separates from it, launches off into the air quickly, and fires a few missiles at the Getter before starting to get away! (react)
tengusaur (01:47:35): (Suma,
Ryuichi, Kei, go)
Fri Freeman (01:47:45): Walt: "Don't panic, everyone! We've seen worse! Well... maybe not you Alice, this is your first mission. And not you too Geno. Well, gah, maybe not me either."
ZebulonCrispi (01:48:29): * How could Suma possibly pass up a chance to fight a copy of herself? Cleaver in hand (the best weapon for fighting meat, after all), Sefet lops a scimitar at not-Sefet before charging into hack it into bloody pieces. +
kamikasei (01:48:33): Hayato: "Where's that thing running to?!"
TormTerra (01:49:00): (Did the Jiga or the flying mechasaur fire the missiles?)
sketchbookfiend (01:49:01): *Doesn't matter what Kei's saying because Ryuichi is summoning forth a waves to slam down on the pile of regenerating mass and then freezing it with an icy mist shooting out with a punch.+
tengusaur (01:49:13): (the flier, Jiga doesn't have missiles)
TormTerra (01:49:19): (Damn.)
tengusaur (01:49:29): (the flies is also pretty much ded now, except for its head)
Captain Gardock (01:49:39): A tomahawk isn't exactly a set of flares, but it's the most convenient thing to put between the Getter and the oncoming missiles. +
Captain Gardock (01:50:45): Tatsuhito: "If it's retreating, we have better things to worry about!"
Ginkan SK (01:50:48): *Raquel shifts an move to grab the things by it's neck and attempt twist it's neck so the bone will snap.+
tengusaur (01:51:28): Suma cuts into her opponent, ripping the fake Sefet's flesh apart... But it doesn't seem to care that there are swords sticking out of its body, because it tries to grab her arms, and then headbutt her repeatedly! Its head is rattling in an unnatural manner after each strike. (react)
tengusaur (01:51:33): Voice: "I'm afraid."
TormTerra (01:51:50): * "Genoace team, try luring one of the fleshy robots towards the dinosaur...If we can get them to fight each other the pressure will be less on us." It was a gamble, but the situation was desperate and neither enemy side was big on any kind of conventional tactics to work with +
ZebulonCrispi (01:52:17): Suma: "You are fight to fear facing me in battle, pitiful imitation of myself!"
Fri Freeman (01:52:48): Genoace team: "Roger!"
ZebulonCrispi (01:52:53): * Arms pinned, Sefet headbutts the other Sefet back, wondering which head will break first. As it does so, the longswords detach from its hips to stab the creature repeatedly. +
tengusaur (01:53:25): Raquel snaps the thing's neck, but it still bites into her mech's hand before letting go! Also, it's still standing there, its head hanging back on its back, limply.
tengusaur (01:54:11): Ryouma cuts through the incoming missiles, making them explode... But Getter takes some damage in the process, shaking violently.
Captain Gardock (01:54:29): Ryoma: "Heh! That's nothing!"
Captain Gardock (01:54:37): Tatsuhito: "...Yeah... nothing..."
kamikasei (01:54:53): Hayato: "Khhh!"
Captain Gardock (01:55:31): Ryoma: "...Oi, Tatsuhito. You having trouble?"
tengusaur (01:56:18): As for Soma, it turns out that the creature can do this... Pretty much forever. With every strike its blood splatters around, reducing its head to more and more of a misshapen mess. But also cracks in Sefet's armor deepen, and it's starting to get dangerous now... Stabbing it with swords pushes the monstrosity back, though.
Captain Gardock (01:56:21): Tatsuhito: "No, I... we need to focus on protecting the labs! I've survived the worst the Getter could throw at me before. I'll be fine..."
tengusaur (01:56:47): (Walt and company, do as told)
ZebulonCrispi (01:57:09): Suma: "They're weak, but nothing stops them. It's like fighting a punching bag."
Ginkan SK (01:57:15): *raquel feels her mchines damage she lets out an pained sound but forces herself through it. She pulls bakc intendo to build up larger amoung o KI and just punch though the things chest and hopefully get something Vital in the process. "Your just a cheap copy of me!"+
tengusaur (01:57:24): Ryuichi shatters the regenerating mess into frozen pieces...
tengusaur (01:57:45): But you can see that those frozen pieces are already thawing out, and are still moving.
tengusaur (01:58:02): They're gathering closer, trying to form one whole again.
sketchbookfiend (01:58:15): Ryuichi: "Are you serious?"
TormTerra (01:58:25): Kei: "Punching bags aren't trying to kill you...Or will continue until you collapse from fatigue."
tengusaur (01:58:38): Also the fleshy Getter jumps on Aotatsu's back, trying to grab it in an animalistic manner and gnaw at its neck! (react)
tengusaur (01:59:21): Voice: "Three little birdies..."
Overman Zappa (01:59:58): Something occurs to Garrod. "Hey, they're copies of our machines but... they're not really COPYing us are they? NOt to blow my own horn but this Gundam's pretty dangerous!"
ZebulonCrispi (02:00:02): Suma: "I'd probably enjoy using them more if they did!"
sketchbookfiend (02:00:21): Ryuichi: "Shit!" *Aotatsu shifts its head away from the snapping jaws and pushes against it's forehead with its hands. Also spins it's body trying to get this thing off- the robot's tail also lashing to yank at the beast.+
Captain Gardock (02:00:54): Ryoma: "If you're gonna talk, say something that makes sense!"
tengusaur (02:02:24): The fleshy Getter leaves some marks in Aotatsu's armor, but you manage to knock it off its feet and then throw it to the ground. It lands on the remains of the fake Aotatsu, smashing them into complete paste.
Fri Freeman (02:02:56): Walt: "This can't be happening... something must work!"
kamikasei (02:03:16): Hayato: "Three birdies... is it trying to understand the machines it's copying?!"
tengusaur (02:03:28): Then it rolls off them and tries to stand up, though it's having difficulty doing so because it keeps its weight massively shifted to one sight, as if not knowing how to stand correctly.
tengusaur (02:03:41): But... that mulch the other monster was reduced to?
tengusaur (02:03:47): It doesn't seem to be moving anymore.
Overman Zappa (02:04:04): Garrod: "I hope they don't understand how to use them! I think we just ned to get rid of them sooner!
sketchbookfiend (02:04:06): Ryuichi: "...What?"
Ginkan SK (02:04:17): "Wht in the ....when in doubnt use fire!"
tengusaur (02:04:36): By the way, might you be wondering what your allies are doing at the same time?
ZebulonCrispi (02:05:16): Suma isn't!
tengusaur (02:05:41): Well, they are under attack by those of the creatures you haven't engaged. They are flailing their arms, slowly but steadily ripping the Genoaces apart while they try to defend against an enemy who doesn't stop no matter how much you shoot at it,.
Ginkan SK (02:06:13): (Tengu should I redo my action when it's time for me to go?)
tengusaur (02:07:24): (if you want to rewrite it, then do it now while it's still not resolved)
Ginkan SK (02:07:54): (Can't really change as i'm engaged in melee)
Ginkan SK (02:08:05): Rauquel "Someone cover those Genoaces!!!"
Fri Freeman (02:08:20): Walt: "Right! How to actually bait them into attacking the mechasaurus... Team! Try to get in between the enemies and try to make them attack each others!"
tengusaur (02:09:17): (then wait for your next action prompt)
tengusaur (02:09:38): (Garrod and Ken can move in the meantime)
Fri Freeman (02:10:36): Walt: "Ooh, this is a bad idea. But waking up today is already a bad idea..." Walt and his team moves between the mechasaurus and the fleshy things and try to bait them to shoot each others.+
Meraxa (02:11:57): Ken: Tch, I'll get on it! *And so, Ken does, with his somewhat already beaten up Genoace going in to help the others. He leaps at one of the fleshy abominations, attempting to land on its back as he shoots another one nearby+
Overman Zappa (02:12:47): Worried about his doppleganger, Garrod resumes attacking the not-Gundam X, this time going at it's "head" with the beam saber. From above, Witz fires with the twin beam rifles to keep it pinned down and distracted.+
tengusaur (02:13:08): Walt and team have attracted the attention of several of those creatures - the Genoace, Airmaster, and Purple Two! They are now moving towards them with uneven, twitching, but surprisingly quick steps! Better do something soon before they reach you! (react, you can combine it with your next action if you want to)
tengusaur (02:14:45): The fake Gundam X was just proceeding to stand up again, but then all the beams burn into its body, leaving deep, black holes in it again! Nevertheless, despite being headless, it swings its arm, trying to stab at it with its boney fingers - straight at the cockpit! (react)
tengusaur (02:14:52): Voice: "Rock and roll..."
Overman Zappa (02:16:12): *Witz tries to distract it with vulcans, but in the meantime, Garrod looks to fend the creature off with the same beamsaber, as well as his own vulcans. "Just what MAKES these things keep ticking!"+
Fri Freeman (02:16:29): Walt: "Oh man. Team, get the hell away! Toward the Mechasaurus!" Walt and his team tries to herd the fleshy creatures toward the mechasaurus.
Fri Freeman (02:16:46): Walt: "At least they can be beaten. Right? We've beaten one of them, right?"
Fri Freeman (02:16:49): +
tengusaur (02:16:49): Ken leaps towards the enemies and lands on the back of the fleshy Getter, drawing it away from the other Genoaces. His shot burns into the fake Purple Two, which raises one half of its broken, bone ring, twiching wholly, then brings it down in an attempt to stab him! (react)
tengusaur (02:17:10): Also, the "head" of the flying Mechasaurus is going away. If you don't do anything about it, it will escape. It's also quite fast/
tengusaur (02:17:22): (Getter team, Raquel, Suma, go)
ZebulonCrispi (02:18:18): * The terms of battle have changed, so new strategy - gotta incapacitate it before going to work. Sefet raises the claymore in one hand and the cleaver in the other, and brings them both down at the same time, aiming to cut off both of Meat Sefet's arms. &
Captain Gardock (02:18:26): Ryoma's not one to kill somebody that doesn't want to fight anymore, asshole lizard monster or otherwise.
Captain Gardock (02:18:41): Those clones, though, they've finally earned his attention.
tengusaur (02:18:50): Walt and company guide the Genoace and Gundam Airmaster close towards the Jiga...
tengusaur (02:18:55): The Jiga extends its tentacles!
tengusaur (02:19:06): It grabs the two monsters... But it also grabs Geno's mecha!
Meraxa (02:19:15): Ken: Come on...! *And Ken... tries to leap back. Because if the fake Purple Two misses, it'll hit its own...+
tengusaur (02:19:22): And it moves all three of them towards its drill!
Captain Gardock (02:19:26): Aaaaand nevermind!
tengusaur (02:19:38): Piercing a hole through all of them at once!
Fri Freeman (02:19:40): Walt: "No! Geno!"
tengusaur (02:20:12): The three mecha drop to the ground in a bloody heap... But the two fleshy monsters, despite having holes in their chests, are still moving around.
tengusaur (02:20:15): But they don't go up.
tengusaur (02:20:22): They start crawling around. Like worms.
Fri Freeman (02:20:35): Walt: "You bastard!"
tengusaur (02:20:42): (Walt can take his action now)
TormTerra (02:21:28): Kei: "..." Seeing the result of her directions, Kei fell completely silent, trying to regain self-control before speaking up again
Fri Freeman (02:21:51): Walt: "What... what should we do now!"
tengusaur (02:22:01): Meat Sefet's arms are cut off. Without any arms to attack with and with a malformed, bloody head, it leaps towards her in a strange belly-flopping attack, legs flailing in mid-air! (react)
tengusaur (02:22:09): Voice: "Dad..."
Captain Gardock (02:22:45): * Ryoma takes aim, being careful for once. If whoever that was is still alive, he doesn't want to change that. But he's gonna bring the heat to the mechasaurus, literally. "GETTER..."
ZebulonCrispi (02:23:10): * Yes, keep presenting more limbs. Sefet takes the kicks head on in exchange for a chance to try and cut its legs off, too. At the same time, Suma launches the longswords to pin the severed arms to the ground, lest they try and reattach themselves. +
Captain Gardock (02:24:39): A round panel on Getter Robo's abdomen opens, revealing a glowing lens, before the energy discharges in a blast of... welll, pink. "BEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAMMMM!!!" +
Ginkan SK (02:24:43): (I can assume can pose wht happned to the meaty Amazon, Tengu? I'm just checking before I go)
Fri Freeman (02:25:01): Walt: "Uuh... Geno!" Walt moves t ocheck geno's status as he continues firing at the wormy thing. Alice follows suit with both action.+
tengusaur (02:25:53): Suma cuts off the legs of the attacking meaty creature, turning it into a torso on the ground - but that torso is still twitching and stretching, trying to get up. Also, Sefet is heavily damage by that thing simply smashing into it - you can't keep this up for long...
tengusaur (02:26:19): (the fleshy Amazon's status hasn't changed since my last react to your action)
Ginkan SK (02:27:39): (I miss it may I get it again?)
tengusaur (02:28:13): Walt can read weak lifesigns from Geno's cockpit! He's still alive, just heavily wounded... But that might change soon, as the two crawling enemies are coming towards his mech, not bothered by the fact that you're burning them with beams! (react)
tengusaur (02:28:46): (the fleshy Amazon's head is broken and limping down on its back, and its overall body is pretty damn broken)
Ginkan SK (02:29:20): (thanks)
tengusaur (02:29:53): Getter Robo burns deep into the Mechasaurus Jiga with its beam! The monster, heavily wounded and scorched, roars loudly, turns around, and tries to grab it with all the tentacles it has left, to bring it down on its drill too! (react)
tengusaur (02:30:10): (Ryuichi and Kei can move too)
Ginkan SK (02:30:51): *Raquel has barked a suggestion for helping the Genoaces that are on site, they re t the most risk of all the defenders after all. She however has an idea. Fire, fire works wonder she again channels and yells something rapidly in Japanese? Or is it Portugese? It's hard to tell but her fists laches in a powerful punch into the fleshy amazon and she unleahses a burst of Flames hoping to cook the thing from the inside.+
Captain Gardock (02:31:02): It does successfully grab Getter-1's limbs! Ryoma's even having a hard time getting loose. Could this be the end? Will they die speared on the Mechasaurus's fearsome drill?
TormTerra (02:31:07): (Did the Getter team ever identify themselves?)
Captain Gardock (02:31:21): Tasuhito: "Ryoma!"
Captain Gardock (02:31:29): Ryoma: "I got it, I got it! OPEN GET!"
Captain Gardock (02:31:41): (Tatsuhito did. Ryoma and Hayato aren't polite enough.)
Captain Gardock (02:31:56): The three Get Machines burst back into the air! +
Fri Freeman (02:32:01): Walt: "Alice, get Geno to safety! I'll lure them on" Walt lures the mess away from Alice and GEno as he keeps on firing.+
tengusaur (02:32:42): Raquel punches her opponent with a fiery first, setting it ablaze!
TormTerra (02:33:45): * "Ryuichi, use the force of your water to keep the two fleshy creatures away from Alice and Geno's cockpit while she gets him out. It should have the force to hold them or push them aside...And for the love of god, be careful." +
tengusaur (02:34:22): The whole fake Amazon is covered in fire and slowly burns to a crisp! It doesn't seem to be moving anymore...
tengusaur (02:34:27): That's two enemies. Out of many.
sketchbookfiend (02:35:20): Ryuichi: "Alright okay-" *Ryuichi moves to position near the Genoaces and summons a surge of water to shove the creatures away from Alice and Geno+
tengusaur (02:35:44): Ken manages to leap off the back of the fake Getter, which gets stabbed by the fake Purple Two! But this attack, leaving only a thin hole in the opponent's flesh, doesn't seem to slow it down much...
Overman Zappa (02:35:58): Garrod: "Fire really worked! Awesome!"
Ginkan SK (02:36:33): Raquel "Thanks to testing FIre works! light these things up!"
tengusaur (02:36:46): Garrod cuts off the hand of the attacker. All it does is punch the Gundam X with its bloody stump, which leaves a mark of blood on it and pushes him back, but doesn't damage much.
Meraxa (02:37:19): Ken: Looks like whatever they are, they're about as keen on cannibalism s we are...
tengusaur (02:37:27): Getter suddenly separates into three fighters, escaping Jiga's grasp! The Mechasaurus seems to be surprised by this.
tengusaur (02:39:14): Ryuichi's water attack smashes into the crawling monsters, keeping them safely away from Alice and Geno! You manage to rescue the heavily wounded pilot safely!
tengusaur (02:39:21): This means that they focus on Walt instead.
Captain Gardock (02:39:26): Tatsuhito: "...Father, I think what we need here is speed. I know its dangerous, but I have the override switch. I'm giving Hayato the controls!"
tengusaur (02:40:05): His Genoace's ankles are grabbed and the whole machine shakes as they try to rip it apart, pulling from two directions at once!
tengusaur (02:40:18): Voice: "Teatime..."
tengusaur (02:40:21): (react)
tengusaur (02:40:34): (Garrod, Ken, Getter team, go)
tengusaur (02:40:44): Dr Saotome: "...Do it."
kamikasei (02:41:48): Hayato: "Heh."
Captain Gardock (02:42:04): Ryoma: "We're putting our lives in his hands? Tch!" He says that like it's the craziest thing he's done today, which... really, there's a case to be made.
Fri Freeman (02:42:25): Walt: "Aah! I prefer coffee! " Walt fires his thrusters to jump backward while keep firing at the grasping thing.
tengusaur (02:43:07): Dr Saotome: "If he loses control then I trust on you two to retake it! Don't disappoint me!"
Overman Zappa (02:44:04): *Garrod was wishing Tiffa was feeling well right about now but with the fake Gundam reeling, Garrod kicks into it's chest and cleaves down into it's center of mass.+
Witz breaks off to support elsewhere, he has his own doppleganger
tengusaur (02:44:53): Garrod cleaves right through the fake Gundam X! You can see all the guts and flesh inside... They don't seem to be structured like a human's.
kamikasei (02:44:53): Hayato: "It's this button, right?" Ah, the sight of his board becoming active is a welcome one. So many possibilities... "Change... GETTER-2!"
kamikasei (02:44:57): http://i.imgur.com/3fN9qSo.jpg
tengusaur (02:44:59): It's still twitching, still alive.
tengusaur (02:45:45): Walt manages to break free out of the grasp of the two monsters, but not without damage to his Genoace's legs. At least he burns them further with his beam shots.
tengusaur (02:46:03): Also, if he turns around, he will see... That the black dome is very close to his back.
tengusaur (02:46:11): (Walt can move too now)
Overman Zappa (02:46:46): Garrod: "Someone quick, take care of this one! It's not doing anything else for a second!"
kamikasei (02:47:20): *The Get Machines combine again, this time in the form of a white-hooded robot that... vanishes. Wait, what? No, it just moved insanely fast! And now it's coming at Mechasaurus Jiga from below, thrusting an arm that's a huge, whirring drill at the cyborg dinosaur octopus creature to spear it through!+
kamikasei (02:47:39): The strain this puts on Ryouma and Tatsuhito is insane.
kamikasei (02:47:58): And the comms are filled with the sound of Hayato gleefully cackling.
tengusaur (02:49:11): Jiga seems to be surprised by what happens, and doesn't have a time to try any kind of defense as the drill attack just rips it apart to bloody shreds! What's left of the mechasaurus' mechanical body explodes violently.
kamikasei (02:49:29): Hayato: "Eee hee hee!"
Captain Gardock (02:49:33): Ryoma grits his teeth, but he's not gonna complain. It would be WAY too satisfying for Hayato.
tengusaur (02:50:18): But at the same time, something else is going on - the fleshy Getter is approaching, taking unsteady steps that look a bit like a giant and very fast, creepy baby, then it leaps down, trying to grab the normal Getter! (react)
tengusaur (02:50:32): Also what's left of the other Mechasaurus, the "head", is almost gone from sight now.
tengusaur (02:51:17): (Raquel, Suma can also move)
kamikasei (02:51:49): Hayato: "Yeeee!"
ZebulonCrispi (02:51:51): * Off go the Claymore and Scimitar to pin the severed legs to the ground. Now it's just you and me, friend.
ZebulonCrispi (02:52:07): * Sefet brings its hands together and starts pounding the Meat Sefet torso into paste. +
Fri Freeman (02:53:01): Walt keeps firing at his target. "Aah! Gah, you're so clingy! This is why I never asked for a hand from anybody! Get away from me!"
Fri Freeman (02:53:06): +
kamikasei (02:53:31): *Getter-2 multiplies! What's with this bizarre bag of tricks? But again, no - there's still just one of it, simply moving so fast it appears to be in many places at once! While the Meat Getter deals with that confusion, the real Getter-2 comes at it from behind, aiming to grab and crush its head in its giant claw hand!+
Meraxa (02:53:43): Ken: An after image technique...?!
tengusaur (02:54:21): All the fleshy Sefet can do is twitch as it's being pounded...
Ginkan SK (02:54:38): (Is the Fleshie Genoace still up?)
tengusaur (02:54:42): (ues)
tengusaur (02:54:49): But then, suddenly, the torso springs back, smashing into the real Sefet's chest like a bloody meat column!
tengusaur (02:55:09): And to make it worse, Purple Two is slowly crawling from behind, and stabs the Sefet with its two bony limbs!
tengusaur (02:55:11): (react)
tengusaur (02:55:14): Voice: "Hello."
tengusaur (02:55:32): (Ryuichi and Kei can also move)
ZebulonCrispi (02:55:34): (Are any of those stabs aimed at Sefet's heart?)
tengusaur (02:55:51): (one of them)
ZebulonCrispi (02:56:34): * Suma spins around and deflects the stab to the heart with the cleaver, just going ahead and letting Sefet get stabbed otherwise. These things are unreasonable. +
Ginkan SK (02:56:55): *Raquel "Woah that thing has more than one alternate mode?!" So there's a bunch of things weak to fire she got an ide, she's got quite an idea there. She does make note of teh after image technique. Tht is something worth her noitce as a fihgter. She's now making sure of more flames s she launches what almost seems to be dragon made of fire at the flesh clone of the Genoace, she's intending to light this horror up too.+
TormTerra (02:56:57): (Whose relatively disengaged and capable of ranged combat?)
tengusaur (02:57:04): Seeing something clasp around its head, the fake Getter goes with its instinct and bites it hard, damaging the real one's claw. But then its head explodes in a shower of blood and guts! The initial attack was dodged thanks to multiple images of course.
Meraxa (02:57:10): (Ken)
sketchbookfiend (02:57:15): *Ryuichi noticing that we're down a Mechasaur decides to look around, and spots it escaping. Aotatsu runs for the beast and springs to fly into a drop kick to the back of it's head+
tengusaur (02:57:16): (Ken and Garrod)
tengusaur (02:57:47): Ryuichi starts pursuing the escaping mechanical Mechasaurus head...
tengusaur (02:57:59): But, alas, Aotatsu is too slow to catch up to it!
tengusaur (02:58:23): All he can do is try to make sure it doesn't disappear from his sight!
sketchbookfiend (02:58:51): That is an acceptable alternative!
sketchbookfiend (02:59:20): Ryuichi: "Hey guys if anyone faster wants to give me a quick hand-"
Overman Zappa (02:59:36): (And Witz technically, but yes)
TormTerra (02:59:51): * "Garrod, follow Ryuichi and try to take down the head. It might attack somewhere else or bring intel back or similar." +
tengusaur (03:00:14): (Garrod can take an action if he does as Kei says)
Overman Zappa (03:01:03): *"R-right!" Taking up the beam rifle again, he takes off, chasing forth and firing rapidly at the head, as well as some tiny little dakka from the vulcans.+
tengusaur (03:01:55): Garrod shoots all those attacks towards the escaping thing.. But at this distance, it's pretty easy for it to sway to the side and avoid them!
tengusaur (03:02:20): At least Gundam X is a bit faster than Aotatsu in its pursuit... But that thing is still hella quick.
Overman Zappa (03:03:43): "Come on! Hit!" And he keeps trying whilst in pursuit.
tengusaur (03:04:02): Suma blocks the stab at her machine's core, but the other strikes his, racking up more damage on Sefet!
ZebulonCrispi (03:04:40): So long as Suma lives, Sefet will fight on!
tengusaur (03:05:16): Raquel sets the fleshy Genoace on fire... But it wasn't damaged badly enough to be fully incinerated yet, and it starts a zombie-like gait towards her, smelling of burning meat!
tengusaur (03:05:57): It swings its arms like windmills, trying to batter Amazon from several directions at once! (react)
tengusaur (03:06:01): (is Ken gonna move?)
tengusaur (03:06:11): Voice: "Cat."
Ginkan SK (03:06:43): *Raquel moves as it's coming to attack het to give it a rapid chain of flaming punches, over nd over. Her rms are almost blurring at the rate she's throwing them.+
Meraxa (03:07:06): (Wait, that was a prompt? I thought you were just answering a question)
tengusaur (03:07:12): (yes, there was a prompt)
tengusaur (03:08:15): Raquel's punches burn off the whole upper half of the creature, leaving it just a lower torso with legs! It drops down and starts rolling on the ground, like a human who's either playing around or in extreme pain.
Meraxa (03:09:05): Ken: Hiiii-Yah! *...The genoace was not built for the thing Ken makes it do, like leaping up, spinning, and then drop kicking one of the remaining fleshy monsters+
tengusaur (03:09:38): Ken kicks a horrible monstrosity, saving one of the remaining Genoaces from getting ripped apart!
tengusaur (03:09:54): And there aren't that many left - only two, out of all the initial defenders...
tengusaur (03:10:10): However, his Genoace was already heavily damaged before, and now it shuts down. Too much strain on its frame.
tengusaur (03:10:16): And the monster slowly turns around...
tengusaur (03:10:25): Voice: "Draw?"
Meraxa (03:10:37): Ken: ...Come again?
tengusaur (03:10:41): Suddenly, an open radio transmission!
tengusaur (03:10:47): Everyone can hear it, the Getter team included!
tengusaur (03:11:01): Roland: "Everyone, evacuate from there ASAP!"
ZebulonCrispi (03:11:16): Suma: "But this is just getting interesting!"
tengusaur (03:11:21): Roland: "ESUN decided to deal with the monsters by dropping a tactical missile!"
ZebulonCrispi (03:11:28): Suma: "Oh, fine."
tengusaur (03:11:34): Roland: "You don't have much time before it hits!"
Captain Gardock (03:11:43): Ryoma: "Bastards! I didn't agree to back down!"
Ginkan SK (03:11:52): Raquel "Get the wounded and downed allied units out of here!"
tengusaur (03:12:17): Dr Saotome: "We can't afford to lose you and the Getter, Ryouma!"
TormTerra (03:12:22): Kei: "Understood. Make sure to move in formation and support each other so the injured can be safely extracted."
tengusaur (03:12:24): Yeah, speaking of wounded and downed...
Captain Gardock (03:12:25): Tatsuhito... groans.
Meraxa (03:12:42): Ken: M-Missile?!
tengusaur (03:12:44): Walt shoots at the attacking fleshy monstrosities, slowing down their attack somewhat.
tengusaur (03:12:47): But not enough.
tengusaur (03:12:58): One of them collapses on top of his Genoace, ripping into its armor!
sketchbookfiend (03:13:11): Ryuichi: "W-wait what!?"
tengusaur (03:13:18): The Genoace is knocked over, its upper half ripped off from the lower!
tengusaur (03:13:30): The now-useless upper half, where the cockpit is located...
tengusaur (03:13:41): Lands right next to the black dome.
Meraxa (03:13:50): Ken scrambles to open his cockpit manually, since his suit won't be of use now.
tengusaur (03:13:59): Walt can feel a strange... pull, coming out of there...
Ginkan SK (03:14:53): (Ken want a lift from Raquel?)
tengusaur (03:15:40): One of those creatures is still slowly approaching the upper half of the Genoace, though. Baring its teeth. Walt can see it clearly, through the ripped hole in his cockpit.
tengusaur (03:15:49): The Genoace is not safe anymore...
tengusaur (03:16:30): On the bright side, the research staff has pretty much evacuated already. All that's left is you and the few pilots who were downed but are still alive.
tengusaur (03:17:00): Everyone! Whether you try to save someone or just get out of there - do something!
Captain Gardock (03:17:22): Hey, Hayato.
Captain Gardock (03:17:35): While you need to Do Something, you might notice.
Captain Gardock (03:17:44): Tatsuhito's been pretty quiet.
TormTerra (03:18:02): Kei was sitting helplessly in a mech without any kind of limbs, resigning herself to just get out of there as quickly as possible. She did send the remaining pilots pings on downed units showing lifesigns from the cockpit, however
Fri Freeman (03:18:19): Walt:"Ah! Aah!" Walt scrambles out of the genoace torso
Meraxa (03:18:29): Ken kicks open the cockpit door, and leaps out. Not much he can do from here, except...
tengusaur (03:18:40): Walt can feel the presence of the dome that's right behind him.
Ginkan SK (03:18:42): (How many downed mooks who are alive and need of evac, left Tengu?)
Overman Zappa (03:18:48): If there is a dude to pick up, Garrod will take one before booking it out of there. Exit stage left!
tengusaur (03:18:58): (two + Geno + Walt + Ken)
Fri Freeman (03:19:01): He almost manages to do it, and he tries to run away from it, but it explodes!
Meraxa (03:19:17): "Tch." He draws a kunai from his sleeve, and dumb as it is, races towards Walt and the giant flesh monster. Because dammit, you don't leave allies behind... even if it might be impossible to reach in time...!
tengusaur (03:19:37): The explosion of the Genoace sends Walt tumbling down!
tengusaur (03:20:00): As he hits the ground, he also touches the black dome with his arm...
TormTerra (03:20:02): (Isn't Geno with Alice who wasn't downed and should be retreating?)
tengusaur (03:20:19): (yes he is, just listing him to note he was downed)
kamikasei (03:20:29): *That escaping mechasaurus head still needs to be taken down before it gets a chance to do... something! Hayato doesn't know what, but given how much unexpected horror the day has brought so far, he's not eager to take a chance! So Getter-2 will fly up into the sky like zoom, speeding after the reptiloid mech on a rocket jetpack that has way too much high speed man!+
tengusaur (03:20:42): He just brushes against it. But it feels very strange...
Fri Freeman (03:20:42): Walt';s not moving, but he's still breathing.
tengusaur (03:21:00): And then, this.
tengusaur (03:21:21): And the monster, stunned by the explosion, slowly regains its senses, and now it's looming over Walt's body.
kamikasei (03:21:29): Of course, while he's doing this, Hayato keeps an eye on the readings from the other cockpits. It looks like the injured co-pilot isn't handling the strain well. This acceleration might knock him out entirely...
tengusaur (03:22:02): But then, Ken hits the monster in the shoulder with his Kunai!
tengusaur (03:22:20): This small metal dart, for fighting human-sized enemies, doesn't deal any real damage to it.
tengusaur (03:22:27): Just draws its attention to him.
Meraxa (03:22:29): "Get away from him!"
tengusaur (03:23:12): Hayato catches up to the escaping Mechasaurus head! Getter-2 is really pretty damn fast. (continue)
tengusaur (03:23:40): The giant mech bends down, and...
tengusaur (03:23:49): Tries to smesh Ken with its thumb. Like an ant.
tengusaur (03:23:56): Someone might want to do something about this...
sketchbookfiend (03:24:06): #KEN!
tengusaur (03:24:14): (approved)
Meraxa (03:24:28): Ken, well, tries his best to duck to the side, before drawing another kunai for stabbing purposes!+
tengusaur (03:24:50): Garrod picks up one of the fallen pilots before escaping. That just leaves one left, and those two over here...
kamikasei (03:24:52): *Getter-2 grabs at the Mechasaurus with its claw hand, using its drill arm to stab the pinned enemy! Over! And over! And again! Gratuitous amounts of stabbing! It's almost like Hayato's revelling in the sheer joy of inflicting harm on an immobilized opponent! But that's crazy talk.+
kamikasei (03:24:58): Hayato: "Yee hee hee!"
sketchbookfiend (03:25:04): *Ryuichi pulls an Iceman and rushes on a large road of ice and water coming to smash into the monster with full force before it crushes Ken.+
sketchbookfiend (03:25:22): Ryuichi: "GET BACK!"
tengusaur (03:25:39): Ken barrel-rolls desperately to the side, before Ryuichi crashes into the attacking enemy, sending it flying away.
tengusaur (03:25:58): The locations of Walt and the final pilot are clearly visible to everyone, thanks to Kei's assistance.
tengusaur (03:26:29): Hayato punches several smaller holes into the mechanical head before finally drilling through all of it, blowing it up.
Meraxa (03:26:38): Yeah, uh, Ken's gonna try and grab his fellow pilot, whilst there's some distance between him and some nightmare from god knows where...
sketchbookfiend (03:26:53): Ryuichi: "Ken! Are you okay?"
Captain Gardock (03:26:58): Ryoma: "Heh. I've gotta admit, not bad."
Meraxa (03:27:11): Ken: Never better!
sketchbookfiend (03:28:03): Ryuichi: "What about your machine?"
Ginkan SK (03:28:22): *Raquel is not fighting she's getting the feeling tht Ken and Walt have thigns somewhat in hand as she's going after one of the remaing downed Genoaces to get it out of there. "all right I got you." If the Mech can't be made to move she's going to get the pilot out of the cockpit nd into her machine's down.+
tengusaur (03:29:27): Raquel saves the last remaining pilot (who is too wounded and terrified to really talk here). That's most of you out! Only Walt, Ken, Ryuichi and Suma left!
sketchbookfiend (03:30:42): Ryuichi's going to make a bubble to pick up Ken and Walt so they can start retreating. Forget the mechs.
tengusaur (03:31:46): Ryuichi evacuates, with the two of them inside a water bubble. Walt is still unconscious.
ZebulonCrispi (03:32:18): * Suma extracts her swords from the ground and reclaims them before getting the hell out of there.
ZebulonCrispi (03:32:22): +
Meraxa (03:32:27): Ken will do all the mandatory health checks to make sure its really unconscious, not dead. And in case of breathing issues...
tengusaur (03:32:34): Suma is the last one to leave. And right in time, because...
tengusaur (03:32:47): The bomb drops on the place.
tengusaur (03:33:15): You can see it from far away, as the missile slowly descends, then a huge explosion happens, which envelopes the dome in it, and the confused, fleshy abominations.
tengusaur (03:33:33): Fortunately this is one of those radiation-free bombs, there's no risk of contaminating the area...
ZebulonCrispi (03:33:39): Suma is laughing quietly in her cockpit as she watches the fireworks.
tengusaur (03:33:40): But when the dust settles, you can see...
tengusaur (03:33:58): That, now surrounded by barren ground, the dome is still there.
tengusaur (03:34:07): Just with no creatures around it.
tengusaur (03:34:12): The bomb got rid of them completely.
sketchbookfiend (03:34:38): Ryuichi: "What...the hell is that thing?"
Ginkan SK (03:34:45): Raquel gets the injured and terrifed Genoace pilot in, then evacs. She'll tend to him as best she can once she's clear of the blast sone and they are safe. "What in the name of ... is that thing..."
Overman Zappa (03:34:45): Garrod: "Wait... all that and... that dome is still there? Why!?"
ZebulonCrispi (03:35:07): Suma: "I did well in joining your group."
Meraxa (03:35:11): Ken: ...It can't be of this world...
ZebulonCrispi (03:35:12): Suma: "UG's enemies are strong."
Captain Gardock (03:36:00): Ryoma: "I could get used to this! Right, Tatsuhito?"
Captain Gardock (03:36:09): ...Silence.
Overman Zappa (03:36:49): Garrod: "Hey, is he okay over there?"
Captain Gardock (03:37:14): Ryoma: "Tatsuhito!" Shit, is he passed out, or...
kamikasei (03:37:31): Hayato: "Looks like he's in no shape to use that override."
Captain Gardock (03:37:39): Ryoma: "Huh?"
Ginkan SK (03:37:43): Raquel "I have one wounded here I'll need medic....Tatshito...?!"
TormTerra (03:37:53): Kei finally relaxed in her seat as everyone got out and the site got bombed. That had been tense. "They are...And that's why we need to take deaing with them seriously. If we don't, people will die."
tengusaur (03:38:24): Indeed, in this attack by new, bizarre enemies, a lot of people died today...
tengusaur (03:38:30): Including Tatsuhito.
tengusaur (03:38:33): MISSION COMPLETE
kamikasei (03:38:38): Hayato: "So this is Getter, eh? Very good! I'm sure I can find a use for it."
kamikasei (03:39:06): Hayato: "I'll just give you something else to worry about in the meantime!"
tengusaur (03:39:20): (what's this? post-mission needle scratch? )
kamikasei (03:39:22): *Getter-2 charges up the mountain, headed for Saotome Labs!+
Captain Gardock (03:39:33): Ryoma: "You...!"
Captain Gardock (03:39:37): DAMMIT.
Captain Gardock (03:40:04): Tatsuhito can't turn it off, and if they shoot Getter Robo down, well, that's not gonna work out in Ryoma's favor either...
Captain Gardock (03:40:07): Only one thing for it.
tengusaur (03:40:13): Ryouma, if you want to do something about it, better think quickly and do it now!
Captain Gardock (03:40:16): He climbs out of the cockpit with the robot in motion.
Captain Gardock (03:40:35): It's a hard climb. Very bumpy.
tengusaur (03:40:58): Okay, and here I thought Hayato is the insane one. Nevertheless, Ryouma is out and sticks to the mech, for now!
Captain Gardock (03:41:01): But just before Hayato reaches the labs, Ryoma is occupying the space in front of the camera!
Captain Gardock (03:41:15): Good thing he knows how to open the hatch.
kamikasei (03:42:17): Hayato: "Eh!?"
kamikasei (03:42:27): He's... still pretty securely strapped in, here.
Captain Gardock (03:42:40): "KNOCK IT OFF!" Ryoma decks Hayato hard in the fucking face. +
kamikasei (03:42:50): Hayato: "Gyeeeeh!"
tengusaur (03:43:17): The attack was very effective!
ZebulonCrispi (03:43:19): Suma likes these guys.
Captain Gardock (03:45:16): Ryoma: "Ha... ha..."
Captain Gardock (03:45:56): Ryoma: "The old man must be crazier than you are... Hayato."
Ginkan SK (03:46:12): Raquel gets the pilot into the medic's hnds and now goes to see what the Getters are doing /now/
tengusaur (03:46:52): This seems to stop Hayato's crazy charge, at least.
tengusaur (03:47:26): And good, you don't need one more horrible event to happen today... There was enough of them already.
tengusaur (03:48:15): Among all this... something's attention was drawn to a certain person.
tengusaur (03:48:24): But what will this entail?
tengusaur (03:48:31): Time will tell... Maybe.
tengusaur (03:48:34): MISSION COMPLETE
