cubey@aol.pl (16:12:11): So.
cubey@aol.pl (16:12:48): After interrogating the CLAW pilots (in ways that wouldn't make any animal lovers angry - we're not barbarians after all!), we have learnt the location of their headquarters.
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:07): It is apparently located under a factory of a popular brand of pet food.
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:18): Pals Around the World - or PAW, for short.
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:41): The factory was closed for renovations some time ago. Which is weird because it's still drawing in energy - more than ever before, even.
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:44): Speaking of energy...
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:24): Anomalous readings similar to what occurs whenever Indalph phase in have been detected in the nearby location.
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:27): Better go check it out.
Meraxa (16:14:48): Ken: ...They weren't very original, were they?
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:50): However no Indalph forces are present in the area so it must be something else than usual. Just what?
tengusaur (16:15:07): Roger: "They are very dedicated to their bad acronyms."
Wyverncakes (16:15:13): Mizuki: "Despite everything theyve remained hidden though..."
tengusaur (16:15:19): Roger: "More than I expected any cat to be."
Wyverncakes (16:15:19): But she's more worried about the anomalies.
VJockey (16:15:34): "...CLAW is a brilliant acronym!"
Wyverncakes (16:15:51): CLAW was certainly misguided, but they weren't cut out to be Indalph materials, were they?
Wyverncakes (16:15:59): ^allies, not material
VJockey (16:16:03): "It serves as both a fearsome name as well as a symbol for our cause!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:32): Howe: "You're getting close, keep your eyes on the target now."
Wyverncakes (16:16:42): Mizuki: "Typically there's better emotions to elicit in a name than fear."
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:52): Howe: "Oh, and one more thing. In case you didn't notice, it's a city, so try to minimize damage to your surroundings."
VJockey (16:16:56): "...And as misguided as Socrates is.... I do not think my mentor would ally with these Indalph..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:58): You are as a matter of fact in a city.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:16:59): Dido sighs. "I'm a bit conflicted about this…I mean, yeah, deadly rebel army, but…do we really have to beat up fluffy cats?"
Meraxa (16:17:17): Ken: ...it sounds like what you'd get on an old cartoon. *Ken is... trying to distract himself. He hadn't thought of a potential encounter with the Indalph so soon*
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:27): And in front of you, the PAW factory.
VJockey (16:17:33): "Dido of Sybil, I must warn you not to underestimate my former comrades."
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:35): Do you engage to investigate?
VJockey (16:17:58): "Simply because we have fluffy exteriors does not mean we are not capable wariors."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:18:06): "…how badass are they?" Dido asks Skald cautiously.
tengusaur (16:18:21): Roger: "Fluffy cats or not, they are criminals armed with dangerous weaponry. And I shall treat them as I treat any criminals."
tengusaur (16:18:28): Roger: "Big O! Action!"
VJockey (16:18:37): "We spent years training and each of our machines has a dedicated flight team."
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:57): ???: "How presumptuous!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:19:02): That voice - you know that voice
VJockey (16:19:05): "!!!!"
VJockey (16:19:08): "Socrates!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:19:21): It's Socrates. But his unit is nowhere in sight.
Wyverncakes (16:19:38): Mizuki was half-inclined to try to investigate on foot, but Socrates speaking up means that plan will have to be nixed.
Wyverncakes (16:19:58): Mizuki: "Well, at least we know that they know we're here!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:19:59): Socrates: "Treat me as a common criminal? Humanity is not even fit to sift through the litter me and my brothers leave behind!"
Meraxa (16:20:06): Ken closes up ScarleTiger's cockpit, readying to launch.
cubey@aol.pl (16:20:11): The factory in front of you... starts to shake.
frifreeman (16:20:13): Archie: "Socrates, we've found your hiding place. Now it's time we end this once and for all!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:20:14): Shake and collapse.
VJockey (16:20:23): "!!!"
Wyverncakes (16:20:36): The DuskBird rises up from Mizuki's shadows, and from there she quickly boards it.
cubey@aol.pl (16:20:45): Socrates: "Today, we avenge our creator, our Father. It is time to fulfill the cat kind's purpose!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:20:55): Something large climbs out from the giant hole left in the factory's place.
cubey@aol.pl (16:21:02): http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a526/V-Jockey/Project%20M/sample_e9e264c1586631df185ecc7405b3b3f4188012ec_zpsa72ae5ef.jpg
cubey@aol.pl (16:21:12): Socrates: "Using this Super Cat Fortress Meowcross!"
tengusaur (16:21:17): Roger: "Launching attacks on workshops to steal their technology and hiding underneath a factory - this is exactly how a Paradigm criminal would operate!"
Wyverncakes (16:21:25): Mizuki: "Meowcross."
Wyverncakes (16:21:35): The word is repeated with absolute neutrality.
VJockey (16:21:48): "That weapon... is this why you stole those materials in space Socrates?!"
Wyverncakes (16:21:54): "You named it... Meowcross."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:21:54): "…yeah." Dido says to herself, clenching a fist. "Them's fighting words." She slides into ShelLancer's cockpit, sticks on her safety helmet, and pilots it out.
tengusaur (16:21:55): Roger: "...They might pick such a derivative name for their superweapon, too."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:22:18): "Wanna bet they have a tuning fork superlaser too?" Dido mutters.
cubey@aol.pl (16:22:24): Socrates: "Indeed! Is it not imposing? Tremble in fear!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:22:40): The giant walking fortress dwarfs your units in comparison to its massive size. Even the Big O.
cubey@aol.pl (16:22:53): Also, more units walk out from the hole - Socrates' very own Tigris among them.
Meraxa (16:23:02): Ken: ...its taking every ounce of strength not to laugh.
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:17): Enemies list: Tigris (Socrates), SCF Meowcross, Uncia x10, Pardalis x6
VJockey (16:23:21): "I fail to see what is funny about this."
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:23): Tigris

Super Cat Fortress Meowcross
http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a526/V-Jockey/Project%20M/sample_e9e264c1586631df185ecc7405b3b3f4188012ec_zpsa72ae5ef.jpg
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:35): Initiative list: Dido, Skald and Archibald, Roger, Mizuki, Ken
frifreeman (16:23:39): Archie: "Truly a fearsome and intimidating opponent. As expected from our mentor Socrates!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:23:41): Dido, the cats, go!
VJockey (16:24:18): "Archie. Best we deal with the largest target before it brings its weapons to bear!"
tengusaur (16:25:11): Roger: "Bringing such a huge machine to the city... Do you care about the collateral damage you will cause?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:01): Socrates: "Did anyone care about collateral damage caused to our creator's mind through constant abuse and mockery?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:04): Socrates: "No!"
Wyverncakes (16:26:07): Mizuki: "Of course not. It's a 'human' city, not one for cats, so why would they?"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:26:31): *"Right…back me up guys!" Dido rolls out in Turtle Mode and charges in, heading towards the Meowcross's belly. Mid-route, she fires a volley of Arc Thorns at the Uncias!+
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:59): Socrates: "Many cats live in this city as well, without a doubt. But they had the common sense to flee! If humans are dumb enough to stare paralyzed at the SDF Meowcross, it is only their own fault that they get flattened!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:42): The Uncias scatter, their crews hissing angrily - looks like they know your tricks, Dido!
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:56): Socrates: "Meowcross weapons control, fire!"
tengusaur (16:28:13): Roger: "What happened to your creator was tragic, but it doesn't compare to what you want to do to humanity in exchange. If you only care about vengeance, I shall stop you!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:38): Batteries of cannons fire their explosive shells at the charging ShellLancer - even before it can get to the bottom! React, Dido.
Wyverncakes (16:28:53): Mizuki: "Dido, take cover!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:28:57): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-ZzurdFCIU
Meraxa (16:29:09): #Dido
cubey@aol.pl (16:29:43): Approved.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:31:25): •"Oh NOOO! I'M GONNA DIE!" Dido wails. She pauses. "Did you know there's one mode I haven't used yet?" She slams down on a button. "SHELL BOOST…ACTIVATING!" Votom's like wheels and rockets pop out from ShelLancer's limbs, and this turtle takes off like a rabbit, leaving scorch marks in the pavement and racing ahead of the artillery barrage!+
frifreeman (16:31:59): Archie:"Like we'd do any others! The biggest and most dangerous target is there, that's for Aces to deal!"
frifreeman (16:33:19): Archie: "Skald! man the defense! I'm going to concentrate on the offense!"
frifreeman (16:33:59): Archie:"Target locked! All missile batteries open! Firing missile barrage!"
VJockey (16:34:38): "Understood, readying defensive systems!"
frifreeman (16:34:43): Dozens, if not hundred of missiles, flies from Smilodon toward the giant enemy fortress.+
Meraxa (16:35:20): And as Dido acts, Ken moves too. ScarleTiger races to strike at the Uncias, trying to get in range so that its Scarlet Shotels can cut those cannons!+
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:42): (The Uncias didn't attack Dido though, the Meowcross did)
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:54): Socrates: "Do you take me for a clueless kitten? I am well aware what the Smilodon is capable of!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:07): Socrates: "Shields, full power!"
Meraxa (16:36:10): (Misread. Change target)
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:54): A large energy barrier appears around the Meowcross. It tanks Ken's shotel strike - and also every single one of the missiles! None of them went through!
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:04): Socrates: "Now, counter-strike! Fire the plasma cannon!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:26): Dido flees, safe from the cannon barrage just as above her head, the Meowcross...
VJockey (16:37:28): "...?! Plasma WHAT?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:33): Does nothing.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:37:37): "This tortoise may be steady…but it ain't slow!" Dido chortles. She blinks. "Dammit…they do have a mainn cannon!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:40): Socrates: "The plasma cannon?"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:37:43): "…or do they?"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:37:50): "Huh."
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:55): Cat: "I'm sorry Socrates but the energy system is still a prototype nyaa!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:01): Cat: "We can only do so much at once nyaa!"
VJockey (16:38:21): "...Thank the gods for small favors..."
Wyverncakes (16:38:23): Mizuki: "Leave it to a Macross mockery to have problems with their main gun too."
tengusaur (16:38:31): Roger: "Perhaps you should've tested your weapons more thoroughly before deployment!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:54): Socrates: "Tch!" And the Tigris leaps at the Smilodon, its shoulder armor reconfiguring into huge claws that proceed to RIP AND TEAR!
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:58): Archie and Skald, react!
cubey@aol.pl (16:39:07): Roger, Mizuki, Ken, go.
Meraxa (16:39:14): Ken: ...and just as I was about to be impressed...
Meraxa (16:39:15): Ken: ...and just as I was about to be impressed...
VJockey (16:39:18): "Archie! Prepare for emergency transformation!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:39:19): "You know, Socrates." Dido say genially. "If you're having trouble with your cannon, I could provide technical support. Each minute on the line will cost you, though."
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:03): Socrates: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:09): Socrates: "I meant to do that."
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:28): Socrates: "I will play with you so much longer before your imminent demise!"
Wyverncakes (16:40:30): Mizuki: "Dido, if that's not a joke so help me-!"
Meraxa (16:40:56): ScarleTiger leaps back, landing towards the back of some Uncias. He tries to bind them together with the Scarlet whip, and melt them together!
frifreeman (16:41:08): Archie:"An ace does not believe in luck. The plasma cannon didn't fire because of our effort. We might not managed to stop them completely from stealing those prototype technologyu back then, but apparently, we stopped them enough."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:41:09): Dido: [On a private line] "Chill…I was just baiting him! Heck, if he did take me seriously I would have given him terrible advice."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:41:28): "Also, thanks for the assist, Ken."
VJockey (16:41:34): *With the instincts of a feline he has the Smildon swiftly switch modes in order to counter the massive claws with an equally massive saw - if only to lock the claws in place to open fire with the numerous guns on the Smildon's body!+
tengusaur (16:41:34): * Roger: "That force field looks powerful. Any ideas what might be its weakness? Or will we have to just overpower it?" While asking his allies, he approaches a Pardalis that still hasn't scattered, blocking on the way, and then lands several powerful straight punches with Big O's massive fists, ending with a sweeping hook! +
Meraxa (16:41:47): +
VJockey (16:42:33): "If the power systems are a prototype, they will need to divert its power draw to increase the effectiveness of its other systems!"
VJockey (16:42:56): "It is similar to the power transfer training all CLAW pilot teams undergo to maximise efficiency of our machines!"
Wyverncakes (16:43:13): * The DuskBird instead charges at an Uncias instead! "Brute force may be an option, but first taking care of the riff-raff might be wise." Its whip is drawn and it lashes out, Mizuki aiming the strikes to cut the machine apart at its midsection!+
tengusaur (16:43:18): Roger: "In other words, we need to make them fire that gun."
VJockey (16:43:44): "Not exactly the safest plan, but for brave warriors such as us..."
Wyverncakes (16:43:53): "... Well, if they need a target they're driven to shoot..."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:43:59): "But they'll only lower their barrier if they think they have the advantage." Dido muses on the private line. "So…we need to make them think they're winning?"
VJockey (16:44:06): "As long as we succeed."
Wyverncakes (16:44:09): "There's a good reason why it's called the Dusk*Bird*."
cubey@aol.pl (16:44:27): Socrates: "Do not take me lightly!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:44:39): The melee weapons clash against each other, locked in a standstill...
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:04): But as Smilodon's guns fire, suddenly a front side barrier appears on the Tigris. It tanks most of the shots!
VJockey (16:45:15): "!!"
VJockey (16:45:29): "A barrier-"
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:37): Several of the more flank-placed guns manage to land shots - but Socrates fires with head vulcans, and damages Smilodon back before the two units disengage.
VJockey (16:45:44): "...Of course... as expected of our leader.."
VJockey (16:46:01): "You are the only one who needs to fight alone aren't you.... SOCRATES?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:46:40): The Pardalis gets a bonk on the head from Big O - and falls back, but there's surprisingly little damage. It has a barrier as well!
cubey@aol.pl (16:46:56): Also as it falls behind, it shoots railguns at Roger's Megadeus. React.
frifreeman (16:47:41): Archie: "This elation... I feel like all of my fur are standing right now. This must be how zero pilots feel when they're facing a superfortress. You might be misguided, my mentor, but you know how to fight."
cubey@aol.pl (16:47:42): The Uncias are suddenly whipped by Ken and Mizuki from both sides.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:47:42): #Roger?
cubey@aol.pl (16:47:58): Not knowing what to do, the cats inside them flail wildly before deciding to abandon their machines and flee!
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:09): Approved Dido.
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:28): You manage to destroy some of the CLAW units, but now the Meowcross fires a large barrage of CIWS at both of you.
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:38): Mizuki, Ken, react to the hail of gunfire from above.
cubey@aol.pl (16:48:59): Skald and Archibald, Dido (after the #), you can go now.
VJockey (16:49:18): "Indeed. The thrill of combat. The exultation of a worthy foe!"
VJockey (16:49:25): "This is what my blood yearns for!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:49:44): *"That's barrier's front-facing…so!" Dido shoots an Arc Thorn into the Pardalis's back…right where the tail is! Then she points ShelLancer's own tail at the enemy and shoots a burst of lightning into the Thorn!+
frifreeman (16:50:15): Archie: "Let the others deal with small fry. We have this worthy foe in front of us!"
tengusaur (16:50:25): * Roger: "Stay down for a while, if you don't mind!" While raising Big O's arms to defend against this shot, he shoots a Moby Dick Anchor from a hip-mounted launcher at the attacking cat mecha, and releases the chain. Hopefully it will entangle it and take it out of action for some time! +
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:51:15): "Whoah!" Dido shouts. "Roger, don't ground yourself to the enemy!"
Wyverncakes (16:51:18): * The DuskBird falls back, but more importantly its wings -charged and shielded with Void energy- wrap around its front for protection against the machineguns!+
VJockey (16:51:48): "Archie... keep some power on reserve and be ready for an emergency transition on my mark!"
VJockey (16:51:53): *Skald lets loose a barrage of missiles and gunfire, seeking to have the missiles strike Socrates from the sides while hammering him with weaponsfire from the front - seeking to close in and strike with the pile bunker claws!+
tengusaur (16:51:54): Roger: "I won't get zapped, I've cut the chain!"
Meraxa (16:53:41): Ken: Beast Mode! *The young man yells, his machine changing forms for mobility as it tries to evade enemy fire+
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (16:54:14): *"Cool!" Dido rushes in towards the Meowcross until she's right next to one of it's feet. "ShelLancer…Stand up!" Transformed, she shoots several Arc Thorns at the ground, ahead of the projected path of the foot. Then she steps back, raises her Lance up, and waits for the right moment! &
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:54): The Big O tanks the attack and the inevitable counterstrike short circuits the entangles Pardalis out.
cubey@aol.pl (16:55:06): You can hear angry cat noises from the inside.
cubey@aol.pl (16:56:41): Socrates: "Not bad... but do not forget who is the master, Skald!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:57:02): The Tigris evades the gunfire by leaping back, and to the side.
cubey@aol.pl (16:57:22): Its sides are still under attack, but it can take it - the shield making it suffer relatively minimal damage.
cubey@aol.pl (16:57:49): While still gaining distance on you, its cloak suddenly lifts up - revealing strategically placed railguns. Four of the start a fast-paced barrage!
cubey@aol.pl (16:57:52): Smilodon crew, react!
VJockey (16:58:30): "NOW!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:59:13): Ken and Mizuki evade the gunfire, but are on the defensive - the way you are now makes counter-attacks difficult.
cubey@aol.pl (16:59:35): The Meowcross doesn't even have to deploy shields for Mizuki's attack what was the deal with that?
cubey@aol.pl (16:59:42): Cat: "Nevermind, nyaa! Railguns, nyaa!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:13): The Meowcross fires... a huge swarm of micromissiles. Did someone make a mistake in the design or was that a trick?
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:16): React/continue, Dido.
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:28): Roger, Mizuki, Ken, go agin.
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:31): *again
frifreeman (17:01:03): At that instant Smilodon transforms into ranged mode and points its main gun toward the Tigris. It's a quick draw match now. And Smilodon fires!+
Wyverncakes (17:01:40): Mizuki: "It seems to me you may have gotten mixed up partway into your designs."
cubey@aol.pl (17:02:20): The railguns fire off a few shots, hitting Smilodon and damaging it.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:02:38): *The moment the Meowcross's foot steps onto the Arc Thorns, Dido drives her Lance into the ground. "Lance Shock Shield Bypassing Operation…commencing!" The power of the Lance Shock moves underground, and from the Arc Thorns directly into the Meowcross's foot, which is touching the ground and thus not behind the barrier!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:02:43): But the barrage is cut down because the Smilodon fires a precise, straightforward shot right where Socrates did not expect it.
cubey@aol.pl (17:03:19): The Tigris is knocked off its feet by the strength of impact, the unit landing into and through a neaby building.
cubey@aol.pl (17:03:41): Socrates: "Well done! You have managed to anger me!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:04:34): The ShelLancer is bombarded by micromissiles. Its armor is thick and it can take it, but that still doesn't mean it's something you can ignore.
cubey@aol.pl (17:04:50): Also, the Meowcross's foot is electrified and the fortress grinds to a momentary halt!
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:05:00): "Keh!" Dido curses. "That'll suck if the Indalph shows."
cubey@aol.pl (17:05:02): When it continues its death march, that one foot is severely malfunctioning.
tengusaur (17:05:18): * Roger: "Your large beam is not working, but not everyone's in that situation. Let's see how much more your defenses can take! Chrome Buster, fire!" Big O raises its arms, visibly gathering energy in its forehead - and then lowers them, swinging its elbows, and connects the fists, causing a huge beam to erupt from its head and fly upwards, towards the towering Meowcross! +
cubey@aol.pl (17:05:26): Socrates: "Myeh?"
Wyverncakes (17:05:28): Mizuki: "I wonder how that shield of theirs is fairing now!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:07:06): "In any case, the Lion's paw doesn't like being pierced with Thorns." Dido muses, withdrawing a few paces back. "Thanks for the idea, Mizuki, by the way!"
Wyverncakes (17:07:48): * Dark energy gathers up inside of the DuskBird's hand, the power of the Abyss Sanction being primed. "Members of CLAW, you mistake persecution at the hands of the few for the hands of all. And though I'm loathe to raise a hand against victims of circumstance... so long as your concerns for revenge endanger those uninvolved, innocent people... I will deny you! ABYSS-!" And the hand thrusts out, a wave of black energy blasting towards the damaged leg. "-SANCTION!"+
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:43): The Meowcross's shields flare up at full power!
cubey@aol.pl (17:10:08): Going into total defense mode, the fortress cannot do much other than hope the shields hold.
cubey@aol.pl (17:10:12): ... And hold they will.
cubey@aol.pl (17:10:54): It was a strain on the fortress's generators, but the shields were not broken.
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:07): Suddenly, you detect new hostiles behind you!
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:10): Socrates: "!!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:17): Socrates: "No! It is too early!"
Wyverncakes (17:11:20): Mizuki: "Who-"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:11:36): *"…NO!" Dido snarls. "Not now! We nearly have them wrapped up!"
VJockey (17:11:38): "What-"
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:44): Behind you, in the air, a giant golden warship materializes.
VJockey (17:11:48): "...Detecting hostiles.."
Wyverncakes (17:12:10): Mizuki: "... They're here."
cubey@aol.pl (17:12:25): You receive a short transmission from its captain.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:12:26): "…you can all just go to a hell dimension….Indalph!" Dido shouts.
cubey@aol.pl (17:12:27): http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-byxaUlpmg8Q/UpuGys_wFiI/AAAAAAAAItw/AefkznryREE/s1600/VC9.jpg
cubey@aol.pl (17:12:56): "This is Saibok of the Devouring Light. For the poor fools of Earth I have little to say."
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:20): Saibok: "Die! Burn and perish in obscurity, insects! Ha ha ha!"
VJockey (17:13:30): "...Socrates... this was what alarmed you?"
Wyverncakes (17:13:40): Well he pissed away any composure he might've had.
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:41): Saibok: "My ship the Last Shining will be the doom of yours. This is for Saturnia."
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:47): Socrates: "Ah."
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:52): Socrates: "Nevermind then."
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:58): He doesn't sound too impressed actually.
Wyverncakes (17:14:04): Mizuki: "She got what was coming for her."
VJockey (17:14:08): "...."
tengusaur (17:14:15): Roger: "...Not who you expected, Socrates?"
VJockey (17:14:18): "What was it you were expecting my Mentor?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:30): Siphor: "Quite judgemental, aren't you?"
VJockey (17:14:35): "What was it that alarmed you that you expected this golden fool to be?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:38): Tiam: "Time for round two!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:43): Azel: "SolEraser, deploying!"
Wyverncakes (17:14:56): "And those three again..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:15:10): Among the Indalph units that start launching from the Last Shining is indeed the SolSaviour copy - SolEraser!
Wyverncakes (17:15:22): "Dido, Ken... guess we're in luck!"
Wyverncakes (17:16:01): It was time to see if all of that practice and training was going to pay off now...
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:26): Enemies list (Indalph): Last Shining (Saibok), SolEraser, Gazers x30, Flight Part x4, Buster Part x4, Break Part x4, Cutter Part x4
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:41): Reminder on what the units are:
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:50): Gazers - large eyeballs with jet-like thrusters
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:17:02): "Yeah!" Dido agrees. "Setting up the combination protocols now…ready when you are! Mizuki! Ken!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:04): Flight Part - Flying Part Troopers with missiles
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:13): Buster Part - armed with beam cannons
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:23): Break Part - drills
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:26): Cutter Part - swords
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:41): As for Socrates...
cubey@aol.pl (17:17:53): He doesn't say anything. The silence is felt as much as if he commented on your questions instead.
cubey@aol.pl (17:18:17): Saibok: "This city will be nothing but ash once I'm done with it!"
Wyverncakes (17:18:21): And standing up from her throne/pilot seat... Mizuki clenched a resolute fist!
Wyverncakes (17:18:26): "Save our Sol-!"

The DuskBird dove towards the ScarleTiger, which in turn charged at the ShelLancer. In a flash the machines began to transform, the two gigantic legs extending from the Lancer's shell as the side opposite of it opened up and swung down, forming hips. The ScarleTiger -now forming an incomplete torso with a right arm- connected with the white machine. The contrasting colors mixed and flowed; red, orange, and white arranged perfectly.

And lastly the DuskBird docked with the ScarleTiger's back, nearly its entire form now that of a black arm radiating malevolence. From the combined machine's back the DuskBird's six wings unfurled, displaying their full size and granduer, and a white head framed in a black, avian helmet rose up from the robot's body. It punched out with one fist, its eyes flashing violet.
Wyverncakes (17:18:38): "SOLSAVIOR!"
Wyverncakes (17:18:52): And with energy crackling from both hands it stared up at the invading Indalph forces.
cubey@aol.pl (17:18:58): The Last Shining fires its main cannons, targetting some buildings with energy beams.
Wyverncakes (17:19:01): "You can try, Indalph!"
tengusaur (17:19:01): Roger: "They're quite rude not to wait with their invasion until we're done, aren't they? If the Indalph won't leave, then let's stop them!"
tengusaur (17:19:19): Roger: "Hey! Your opponents are here!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:19:35): Smilodon team, SolSavior team, Roger - go now!
VJockey (17:20:22): "Archie!! We need to intercept that beam before it strikes!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:20:25): "We need to take out those cannons…but odds are, SolEraser will get in the way."
VJockey (17:20:29): "Full power to barriers!!"
Wyverncakes (17:20:55): Mizuki: "Then we can work around that."
Wyverncakes (17:21:07): "Deal with the Eraser team, and keep them between us and those cannons."
frifreeman (17:21:14): Archie: "Roger!" Full power to front-side barrier!
VJockey (17:21:25): *Several missiles were launched at the cannons, however the response was mainly to protect whatever target one of the beams was about to hit!+
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:21:47): "What if we took our fight directly to the Last Shining!" Dido muses. "Real close, so that their missed attacks would hit the battleship?"
tengusaur (17:21:49): * Roger: "Missile Party, give our guests a warm welcome!" Big O looks up, and multiple slots open in its chest, revealing large rockets flying out in a swarm, and exploding in the air among the attacking Indalph minions! +
Wyverncakes (17:22:22): Mizuki: "Don't want to risk that just yet... not when SolEraser seems to be big on gravity manipulation."
cubey@aol.pl (17:22:37): (Does the Smilodon move to tank the beams?)
cubey@aol.pl (17:22:42): (Or just fire?)
Wyverncakes (17:23:12): * With all six wings opened, SolSavior soars up into the air, taking potshots at the oncoming Indalph mooks with the SolBodkin... but its real focus is on SolEraser itself! "And as for you three!" Voilet beams of energy shoot out from SolSavior's eyes at the imitation!+
VJockey (17:23:14): (Tank the beams, the missiles were pretty much just to see if they can damage the cannon_
frifreeman (17:23:17): (we're tanking the beam, I think)
tengusaur (17:24:12): * Also, Big O moves in to protect one of the buildings with a raised shield-arm. +
cubey@aol.pl (17:24:38): Lord Siphor: "I don't think so. Horizon Aura, activate."
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:11): The missiles launched by the Smilodon suddenly swerve wildly as they fly near the SolEraser and go off into the deep blue sky, hitting nothing.
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:43): More importantly though!
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:00): The Smilodon moves towards the beams - and puts its own barrier between them and itself.
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:08): Suddenly, you find that you are not alone.
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:23): Two barriers manage to neutralize the beams - because the Tigris is here as well!
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:53): Socrates: "Your mercy will be your demise."
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:10): He takes advantage of the Smilodon being wide open though - and slashes at you with the claws!
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:18): React, Skald and Archibald.
tengusaur (17:28:07): # cats
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:28:10): "Dammit! Socrates!" Dido snarls. "Ever heard of 'teaming up to fight a bigger evil?' The Indalph mean to enslave us all!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:10): Roger destroys a lot of the mook Indalph.
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:11): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:40): The skies are full of explosions, courtesy of Big O but also SolSavior. However the Savior team has its own problems now.
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:53): Tiam: "Spare me your shit! Horizon Razor!"
VJockey (17:29:00): "If that is so... then why did you assist us in saving this place?!"
tengusaur (17:29:16): * Suddenly, a large rocket anchor is launched at Smilodon's claw, entangling it! Big O grabs its chain from the other side and pulls, to stop the claw from connecting! +
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:18): The SolEraser creates a sword out of thin air - and blocks the eyebeams before lunging straight at the original with a wide slash!
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:22): SolSavior team, react!
drascin (17:29:29): #
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:33): Approved.
tengusaur (17:29:44): Roger: "Don't take advantage of others' mercy. There's little enough of it in the world as it is."
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:51): Socrates: "I only took advantage of an opening you so foolishly created, that is all!"
VJockey (17:29:53): *He does his best to swing the massive saw to counter the unchained claw! Skald makes a mental note to leave a present for Roger.+
VJockey (17:30:13): "My Mentor..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:30:55): The anchor's chain doesn't entangle the claw - because Socrates sees it coming and grabs the chain instead, throwing his unit off it.
cubey@aol.pl (17:31:07): The Tigris leaps away, neither it nor Smilodon suffering any hits.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:31:11): *"Oh no you don't! Sol-Sanctum…Spooling Up!" Dido raises the swirling light and dark barrier with one of Sol-Savior's hands…and then jerks it left at the point of impact, trying to swat the Horizon Razor out of the way!+
drascin (17:31:42): *The lunge is going to find some problems, though, as a powerful piercing beam hits the SolEraser's wrist from nowhere, followed by a rain of missiles going up the arm and towards the head as Kagura's small form appears from above and begins bombarding the much larger mech+
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:32:02): "Like a knight's shield against a sword…" Dido mutters under her breath.
cubey@aol.pl (17:33:47): Siphor: "Tch..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:34:10): SolEraser's wrist is damaged - but it does little to the unit overall, other than stopping its attack cold.
Wyverncakes (17:34:13): Mizuki: "You didn't have surprise on your side this time."
cubey@aol.pl (17:34:23): Tiam: "It's the buzzing fly again!"
Wyverncakes (17:34:31): "A casualty of Mr. Devouring Light's insistence on bringing in his giant ship, perhaps?"
drascin (17:34:43): Kagura: LOOK AT THAT. IT'S THE ASPIRING CORPSES.
Wyverncakes (17:34:49): "Let's see how well you fair when you have to fight clean!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:34:59): Unfortunately the missiles are slowed down by the gravity aura before SolEraser flies away from them, effortlessly.
drascin (17:35:02): then she turns her comms towards the others
drascin (17:35:15): Kagura: STATUS REPORT.
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:16): Roger and the cats, go now.
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:44): Saibok: "This is nowhere near enough bloodshed to satisfy me. What is going on down there?!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:35:56): Saibok: "Fire another barrage, wipe those cretins out!"
VJockey (17:35:58): "We are caught between two enemy forces with large machines capable of levelling this entire city!"
drascin (17:36:22): Kagura: BUSINESS AS USUAL, THEN.
tengusaur (17:36:23): Roger: "I see you got in fast enough to join the party, miss Kagura. The cats' fortress is protected by a strong barrier - we can't scratch it until they redirect the energy to other systems."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:36:44): "CLAW is battered, but refuses to stand down and let us focus on the Indalph! Both the big units have big beam cannons, but the cat version can't use it and it's shields at the same time." Dido provides.
VJockey (17:36:55): "Indeed!"
Wyverncakes (17:36:57): Mizuki: "If we could convince them to turn that cannon on the Indalph's ship, that would probably do wonders for everyone!"
VJockey (17:37:20): "...Perhaps if we draw their fire upon the Meowcross..."
tengusaur (17:37:25): (enemy list?)
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:37:29): She waves in her cockpit to Kagura. "It's good to see you by the way…Sifu!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:43): Enemies list (CLAW): Tigris (Socrates) (damaged), SCF Meowcross (leg damaged), Uncia x7, Pardalis x5

Enemies list (Indalph): Last Shining (Saibok), SolEraser, Gazers x20, Flight Part x2, Buster Part x2, Break Part x2, Cutter Part x2
drascin (17:38:28): Kagura is not even going to react outloud to the sifu thing. That's not a conversation she wants to have.
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:39:52): "…no? Doesn't work?" Dido asks sheepishly. "Everyone else had Sifus and Senseis…ah, nevermind."
tengusaur (17:40:05): * Big O starts moving in towards the Meowcross, to get underneath its legs. But Roger doesn't attack the giant walking fortress - instead, he takes aim from there, raises Big O's arms in a horizontal pose, and fires two eye beams towards the Last Shining. +
tengusaur (17:40:52): Roger: "Do not ignore the gaze of a Megadeus!"
drascin (17:40:58): Kagura: MAJOR WILL DO, SYBIL. NOW GET BACK TO LOOKING AT YOUR CONTROLS.
cubey@aol.pl (17:41:49): Saibok: "You will do! Tractor beam!"
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:42:05): "Yes, Ma'am!" Dido has a good idea of what Roger's planning, and opens SolSavior's sensors to get a good scan of the Last Shining's attack.
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:17): A barely visible ray is fired from the Last Shining - just as the eye beams cut into it, but its captain doesn't care.
cubey@aol.pl (17:42:39): The ray immobilizes the already not quite fast Big O - and then comes the large, sweeping beam aimed at its direction!
Wyverncakes (17:42:50): #
cubey@aol.pl (17:43:02): Also the Meowcross was firing more cannon shells at Roger's location before dropping everything it was doing to activate the shield again!
cubey@aol.pl (17:43:03): React.
cubey@aol.pl (17:43:06): Also approved.
cubey@aol.pl (17:43:24): Dido notices that indeed, this is a gravity-based tractor beam.
Wyverncakes (17:43:28): Mizuki: "Roger, make a run for it!"
Wyverncakes (17:44:21): SolSavior's hands smack together, gathering up a large amount of both Sol and Void energies! "Dido, I'm counting on you for targeting here!"
tengusaur (17:45:21): * Roger: "Easy to say, the beam is keeping me in one place!" Trying to overcome the powerful tractor beam, he pushes on the controls as much as he can, trying to raise Big O's arms in defense - and at the same time launch an anchor at one of the Meowcross' legs, and pull himself closer to it and away from the sweeping beam! +
Wyverncakes (17:45:27): * Lining up the shot, SolSavior thrusts its hands forward! "Sol SaaaalVATION!" And that massive blast is aimed at the Last Shining. Trying to defend Big O with that tractor beam active might just mean them both getting ensnared!+
VJockey (17:46:35): "Hrm..."
Aldosalt.cole@gmail.com (17:46:47): •"I trained for this, remember?" Dido twitches her controls back and forth, aiming the Sol Salvation blast right down the pipe, right at the center of the tractor beam's diameter!+
VJockey (17:46:56): "Archie! Fire a round at the Indalph ship then take us as close as possible to the Meowcross!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:47): The Meowcross's shield is in the way of the beam blast.
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:54): And once again, it tanks it. Good for you, Roger!
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:23): Moreover, the Sol Salvation blast fires towards the battleship. Something explodes on its surface and the tractor beam disengages - possibly forever!
cubey@aol.pl (17:50:50): Cat: "Nyaa! The generators are at their limits, nyaa!"
frifreeman (17:51:06): Archie:"I'd rather fight them head on, but I get what you're saying, Skald!" Smilodon fires its railgun toward the Indalph ship, before jumping toward Meowcross.+
cubey@aol.pl (17:51:13): Socrates: "My Super Cat Fortress Meowcros... what has happened to you?!"
Wyverncakes (17:51:31): Mizuki: "Having to fight against extradimensional invaders that want all of us dead!"
VJockey (17:51:43): "This weapon could have been a boon to us all my Mentor!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:51:44): Socrates: "If the barriers are manufacturing then fire all the weapons. Offense is the best defense!"
Wyverncakes (17:51:47): "You heard the man, he wants this whole place burned to the ground, your followers included!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:51:53): Cat: "Roger nyaa."
VJockey (17:51:56): "Instead you had to waste it on battling us!"
drascin (17:51:57): Kagura: YOU DO THAT.
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:18): The upper part of the Meowcross opens, revealing a large cannon.
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:37): Which promptly starts charging a plasma bolt - because the generators are overloaded it does not fire it instantly. But still...
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:45): The plasma attack is aimed right at Smilodon - and possibly the city behind it!
cubey@aol.pl (17:52:50): React, Skald and Archie!
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:01): Do something before the plasma cannon fires!
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:48): (The railguns' attack was partially responsible for destroying the tractor beam by the way.)
tengusaur (17:54:49): Roger: "Wrong target!"
VJockey (17:55:45): *Well if this is the case then there is only one thing to do! Get under the cannon and force it to point towards the Indalph ship! Mode Change and Pile Bunker Claws are deployed to tear into the cannon and forcefully aim it!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:07): Socrates: "No! What are you doing!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:42): With incredible struggle, the Smilodon starts moving the cannon - by force!
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:48): It helps that you are too low for it to hit you.
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:54): And then, just as it was going to fire...
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:59): New units on radar.
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:02): They're in the air.
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:07): They're everywhere.
Wyverncakes (17:59:24): Mizuki: "More Indalph?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:28): Suddenly, the Meowcross is hit by a beam barrage from many targets at once - and explodes!
Wyverncakes (17:59:49): "h no...! Archibald! Skald!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:49): The Smilodon is thrown back from the huge explosion!
Wyverncakes (17:59:51): ^Oh
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:07): Piles of metal shrapnel land all around you, delivering even more damage to your machine.
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:21): Socrates: "..."
aldo salt (18:00:24): "Dammit!" Dido says. "Where'd they come from?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:26): Socrates: "Oh no. They're here."
VJockey (18:00:32): "!?!?!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:42): These new arrivals do not look like Indalph.
drascin (18:00:44): Kagura: NOT IN DATABASE. SOMEONE HAVE ID ON THESE BOGEYS?
frifreeman (18:00:50): Archie: "They? Who are you talking about? Are you talking about the indlaph?"
VJockey (18:00:54): "They're everywhere?!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:00:54): They are mechanical and all flying for one thing.
aldo salt (18:01:15): "Phew!" Dido exhales. "You're alright, Archie! Skald, can you sound off?"
VJockey (18:01:18): "My sensor systems are swamped with contacts!"
tengusaur (18:01:19): Roger: "Those are the enemies you expected to appear instead, aren't they..."
cubey@aol.pl (18:01:21): Socrates: "Curse you. This is what Meowcross was built to stop, and now it's over!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:01:28): Socrates: "The fury of the Avian Empire is upon us!"
aldo salt (18:01:35): "...wat."
cubey@aol.pl (18:01:36): New enemies: The Avian Empire
aldo salt (18:01:38): Dido says.
drascin (18:01:42): Kagura: THEN NO SPENDING YOUR TRUMP CARD FIGHTING SOMETHING ELSE WOULD HAVE BEEN SMARTER
cubey@aol.pl (18:01:45): Killbird

cubey@aol.pl (18:02:03): Enemy list: Killbird x250, Deathbird x100, Murderbird x4, Slaughterbird x1
Wyverncakes (18:02:28): Mizuki: "Avian Empire..."
Wyverncakes (18:02:40): Their own machines still look less bird-like than her own.
tengusaur (18:02:43): Roger: "Why didn't you tell us about them before? Why did you keep it secret?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:45): Socrates: "Retreat, CLAW, retreat!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:03:00): It looks like he doesn't listen to you. He's busy telling his men... cats, to flee.
VJockey (18:03:04): "This... this was our purpose wasn't it... to fight this enemy...!"
VJockey (18:03:07): "Socrates!"
VJockey (18:03:11): "You fool!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:03:11): While the Tigris stands in front of the swarm of new foes.
cubey@aol.pl (18:03:15): Ready to take them all on.
cubey@aol.pl (18:03:24): Kagura and SolSavior team, go.
VJockey (18:03:29): "We can still combat this threat together!"
frifreeman (18:04:07): ARchie: "There's so many of them..."
drascin (18:04:20): Kagura: LEAVE IT. WITHOUT HIS BIG GUN HE'S JUST GOING TO RUN AWAY, SEEMS.
frifreeman (18:04:20): Archie: "Socrates! This is our true purpose, right?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:05:09): Socrates: "... Yes."
Wyverncakes (18:05:21): Mizuki: "You wouldn't happen to know anything about this then, would you?"
frifreeman (18:05:26): Archie: "Why didn't you tell us!?"
Wyverncakes (18:05:30): She says this to the Eraser team and Saibok...
Wyverncakes (18:05:41): Things are going to get tricky here...
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:04): Socrates: "Why would I? Humans... it's always the humans' fault!"
drascin (18:06:14): Kagura in the meantime is eyeing the Avian forces
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:16): Siphor: "Wouldn't you like to know?"
Wyverncakes (18:06:21): Mizuki: "And shut up about that!"
Wyverncakes (18:06:30): ^Said to Socrates
VJockey (18:06:33): "Our father was human Socrates!"
tengusaur (18:06:42): Roger: "Don't blame humans. It was your decision to use your secret weapon against us!"
Wyverncakes (18:06:44): Avian Empire and the Indalph...
aldo salt (18:06:49): "But why is it the human's fault?" Dido says to Socrates, using his 'method' against him.
cubey@aol.pl (18:06:51): Socrates: "And look how others treated them! Even as he made a project to save humanity..."
VJockey (18:06:53): "If this was our purpose he would have wished for us to fight against these foes alongside humanity!"
Wyverncakes (18:07:11): She had no idea about what the goals and MO were of the former group, but the Indalph already had one ally in this dimension already.
Wyverncakes (18:07:33): And she didn't want to risk them having another... or for that matter a gigantic ship at their disposal either.
VJockey (18:07:33): "He still carried on regardless Socrates!"
Wyverncakes (18:07:47): But first would have to come SolEraser.
Wyverncakes (18:07:48): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_fcip2ncUA
drascin (18:08:03): Kagura: THIS IS GOING TO TAKE A WHILE. BETTER GET STARTED.
aldo salt (18:08:50): "…are we still using that plan, Mizuki?" Dido asks.
Wyverncakes (18:09:07): * And thus SolSavior flew straight at its impostor, energy charging in both of its hands! "Dido, if we can get a chance to pull off the maneuver... we're taking it. So be ready!" But for now, came a fierce one-two... Abyss Sanction from the left, Shiranui Retsu Ken from the right!+
aldo salt (18:10:30): Dido nods. She opens up SolSavior's targeting software and syncs it to her weapon's system. Then she waits for the moment.
drascin (18:11:07): *And with that, Kagura flies straight up into the ranks of the Avian Empire, a small fly methodically spewing death on all cylinders as it flies into the Killbird formations, aiming to cause as much damage and disarray as possible while using the enemies' own ranks as cover and hiding while she moves between the explosions+
cubey@aol.pl (18:11:45): Tiam: "I have been waiting for you to stop yapping and start fighting!"
drascin (18:11:49): Kagura: COMMENCING DISTRACTION. FINISH OFF THE IDIOTS QUICKLY.
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:17): Azel: "Do not engage in melee, Tiam."
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:20): Tiam: "Tch!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:42): The SolEraser looks like it wants to retreat - but your attacks can reach it anyway!
cubey@aol.pl (18:12:45): Or can they?
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:03): Suddenly, its mouth spits acid right at SolSavior's face!
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:15): Siphor: "Do you like this? No? Too bad."
drascin (18:13:31): (because Kagura knows she won't be able to keep this up too long before someone decides to fuck it and flood the whole zone in firepower - it's not like the Avians don't have plenty of reserves...)
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:34): While possibly blinded, SolSavior's attack is countered with a gravity-amplifying punch of Eraser!
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:47): Tiam: "Fuck you! Horizon CRUSHER!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:13:50): React, SolSavior team.
Wyverncakes (18:14:11): They're in midair. Mizuki knows that.
cubey@aol.pl (18:14:34): Kagura shoots down Killbirds one by one.
Wyverncakes (18:14:44): But what she also knows... is that they're actually close. Close enough for this to work.
Wyverncakes (18:15:04): Mizuki: "Dido... Ken... it's time!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:12): Unfortunately, there is a lot of them, and those that you are not destroying or slowing down at the moment are taking the time to get out of the way and fire machineguns and beams. Danmaku is suddenly everywhere.
cubey@aol.pl (18:15:13): React.
Wyverncakes (18:15:55): * Face burning from the pain of the acid on the DuskBird's own... she still moves to have SolSavior separate into its components again to evade the punch!&
cubey@aol.pl (18:16:57): The gravitic punch hits right at the center of SolSavior's mass! But...
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:09): There is nothing to hit there - it has split into component pieces.
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:18): Azel: "They have seperated?!"
Wyverncakes (18:17:45): Mizuki: "You gave us the idea, and it's a good one too!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:49): The offhand of SolEraser fires a beam cutter in a desperate attempt to single out and fry at least one of the component units - before you can combine again.
cubey@aol.pl (18:17:51): React/continue.
Wyverncakes (18:18:09): Ahhh... but what if they're not intending to recombine?
Wyverncakes (18:18:23): Mizuki: "Now or never! This is what we've been practicing!"
aldo salt (18:18:44): "I won't let you down!" Mizuki shouts.
aldo salt (18:18:51): (Derp: Dido shouts)
Wyverncakes (18:20:04): * The DuskBird and the ScarleTiger both still have the energy built up in their hands, and both slam it into either side of SolEraser's outstretched fist! This isn't just to render it useless though... but also pin the target down, because...+
Wyverncakes (18:20:11): "You've got one shot Dido!"
drascin (18:21:04): *Well, at least it's just bullets and beams. Kagura can deal with this much better than the wide area nuke she was fearing. Her SEAL field flares, slowing down the incoming bullets as she twists and turns around the fire, using the instants of cover she gets when passing behind pieces of destroyed killbirds to fire guided plasma beams before going on the defense with her SEAL field again, and repeat, as many times as she can manage, trying to keep as many enemies' gazes focused on her as long as possible to give the Saviour team time to finish the job without getting bombarded+
aldo salt (18:21:32): *As her unit falls from the sky, Dido swing's ShelLancer's torso up…aiming it right at the feet of SolEraser! Her screen's reticle blares red and she cries out: "Shell Flak…Firing!" ShelLancer's chest seems to explode in pin-pricks of light as round after round of hypersonic ball-bearing blast out, angled inward into SolEraser's feet!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:41): Kagura manages to annihilate every target around her nearby vincinity.
cubey@aol.pl (18:24:57): It looks like the Avian Empire onslaught might be put to a stop!
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:20): ... Except that they change tactics. The flying units start avoiding her with a wide berth instead.
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:28): And spread all over the city.
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:44): Socrates: "No!"
drascin (18:25:47): Kagura: CLEVER GIRLS
cubey@aol.pl (18:25:57): The Tigris leaps forward, its railguns shooting down one Killbird after another.
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:03): When suddenly, something engages it in melee.
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:15): http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a526/V-Jockey/Project%20M/34239736_zpsb4b76893.png
tengusaur (18:26:16): Roger: "There's too many of them!"
VJockey (18:26:45): "Socrates! LOOK OUT!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:26:59): Socrates: "Meow?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:01): With a single punch of its heavily armored arm, the Slaughterbird punches through the Tigris!
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:09): The barrier didn't do anything at all!
drascin (18:27:34): Kagura: YOU DON'T SAY
cubey@aol.pl (18:27:35): Socrates: "!!"
drascin (18:27:37): (to Roger)
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:11): The Slaughterbird starts to transform, taking a different form that immediately starts to rake and claw through the immobilized Tigris, tearing off pieces and bits of metal.
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:19): A giant robotic cassowary.
VJockey (18:28:20): "NOOOOO!"
frifreeman (18:28:53): Archie:"Socrates!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:28:55): The Cassowary Emperor (voice only): "Go, my servants."
cubey@aol.pl (18:29:20): Emperor: "Under the lead of one of my own kin, go and enslave humanity. Exterminate all who stand in our way, especially the feline."
Wyverncakes (18:29:54): Mizuki: "... Definitely, definitely can't let these things join up with the Indalph...!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:00): At the same time...
drascin (18:30:05): Kagura: NOT ON YOUR LIFE, CHICKEN BREATH
tengusaur (18:30:12): Roger: "Not if I have anything to say about that. Stop spreading around the city and come here, where your real enemies lie!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:28): SolSavior team - your plan was good! The SolEraser fist is stuck between two of your attacks. And then ShelLancer adds to the pile.
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:42): Lord Siphor: "Heh. Not bad... but unfortunately."
cubey@aol.pl (18:30:53): Siphor: "You are just too weak."
cubey@aol.pl (18:31:36): The SolEraser's gravitic aura grows stronger - and Abyss Sanction as well as Shiranui Retsu Ken are neutralized by its effects!
cubey@aol.pl (18:31:58): The Shell Flak grinds to a halt centimeters before connecting with SolEraser.
Wyverncakes (18:32:01): Mizuki: "Say that after you've beaten us... and this time DON'T just stand as still as a statue savoring the moment!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:27): Siphor: "I intend to do more than that. Far more."
Wyverncakes (18:32:29): Still, she winces at their tactic falling apart. Not even the Granzon was this cheap with gravity manipulation!
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:42): The aura pulls all three of you together, causing the SolSavior machines to crash into each other!
cubey@aol.pl (18:32:51): Archie and Skald, Roger, go now.
cubey@aol.pl (18:33:15): By the way the mecha-cassowary Slaughterbird is still raking into the Tigris.
aldo salt (18:33:18): "…Crap!" Dido paws at the combining switches.
aldo salt (18:33:54): "What now? How do you counter something with that much control over gravity?"
VJockey (18:34:03): *There is a loud yowl of feline rage as the Smildon tears towards the Slaughterbird! Swinging its massive chainsaw at the enemy of all cat and humankind!+
Wyverncakes (18:34:19): Mizuki: "Keep the pressure of them... they still don't want to fight up close!"
Wyverncakes (18:35:02): Gritting her teeth, SolSavior reforms.
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:09): The Slaughterbird notices that someone is interrupting its attack - and its talons swipe down on the Smilodon.
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:15): Watch out, the talons are chainsaw, too!
cubey@aol.pl (18:35:17): React!
aldo salt (18:36:13): "Right!" Dido says. "Hmmm…we still don't know if SolEraser's gravity aura is omnidirectional or not. Wanna experiment?"
tengusaur (18:36:32): * Roger launches a Moby Dick Anchor (he sure gets a lot of mileage out of those things today) at one of the Murderbirds and starts to reel it in, trying to pull the large enemy closer in, out of the sky! &
frifreeman (18:36:43): Archie:"Even with what youv've done... You don't deserve being tore apart like that, Socrates..."
Wyverncakes (18:36:56): "If all it can do is make things fall, then at least we can plan around that."
VJockey (18:37:29): "My Mentor... even if we are fated to battle each other..."
VJockey (18:37:37): "I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO FALL TO SUCH A FOE!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:37:40): The Murderbird is massive and very heavy - but it gives very little resistance.
tengusaur (18:38:05): Roger: "I have to stop their spread over the city. Everyone, I trust you to handle your ends of the battle as well!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:07): Unfortunately, a lot of the Deathbirds notice what Big O is doing and bombard it from above. Literally. They drop bombs. A lot of them.
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:08): React.
cubey@aol.pl (18:38:29): Kagura can also act.
VJockey (18:38:47): *How does one retaliate? Grab the chainsaw talons with Pile-Bunker claws to blow through their systems and continuously open fire on the body of the bird itself!+
tengusaur (18:39:46): * Roger uses the Murderbird as a shield against the incoming bombardment! And then... Big O's arm-mounted piston starts working, and the Megadeus launches a Sudden Impact at the Murderbird - not to punch through it, but to throw it far back, again into the air and in the thickest group of enemies! +
tengusaur (18:40:27): Roger: "If you want to have a chance, you will need to focus on us!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:43:39): A few of the bombs crash down on Big O, making dents in its thick armor.
cubey@aol.pl (18:44:12): Fortunately soon enough they stop because they'd hit the Murderbird - a Murderbird which gets Sudden Impacted back into the flying murder of avians.
drascin (18:44:21): *Well, trying to chase all the enemies running away from her would just not do anywhere near enough. Thankfully, today Kagura came in her heavy firepower suit. And so she stops in midair, moving only slightly to dodge remaining bullets, as her seeking plasma cannons warm up and she begins turning around slowly and sniping at any enemy stupid enough to give her their backs for even an instant with four sudden converging bursts of plasma!+
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:10): A whole lot of units get in its way and are crashed, but also crash into the carrier - and the whole thing is eventually too much and the Murderbird explodes mid-air.
cubey@aol.pl (18:45:40): The birds' spread is contained as everything in range of Kagura gets shot down. Maybe it was a bad idea after alll...
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:05): Especially since their commander is suddenly in hot water.
drascin (18:46:09): Kagura: HERE BIRDY BIRDY
drascin (18:46:23): Kagura: DON'T YOU TRY TO RUN
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:24): Smilodon grabs the talons with its claws... and the pile bunker claws are broken.
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:29): Chainsaw, remember?
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:39): However, that's all you needed to fire on the now unprotected body.
cubey@aol.pl (18:46:48): Hitting time and time again, you deal a lot of damage to it.
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:20): The Slaughterbird turns tail and runs, having sustained way too much damage for its pilot's liking!
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:33): Siphor: "Well then. Time to end this."
VJockey (18:47:40): "YOU ARE NOT ESCAPING SO EASILY!!!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:47:50): Azel: "... Yes"
VJockey (18:47:57): "Archie! Missiles! All of our reserves! Now! NOW!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:48:04): Tiam: "Time for the Horizon Buster!"
Wyverncakes (18:48:11): Mizuki: "... WHat are you planning?"
cubey@aol.pl (18:48:29): SolEraser lifts itself up a little higher and starts charging its powerful chest cannon.
cubey@aol.pl (18:48:37): Dark energy is generated around it...
cubey@aol.pl (18:48:59): Siphor: "We have a better target than SolSavior, however."
cubey@aol.pl (18:49:21): While still not opening itself to you, SolEraser's currently charging up attack is not aimed at you at all.
aldo salt (18:49:23): "Dammit…Mizuki!" Dido says. "I don't think we can dodge that! We'll have to block it somehow!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:49:34): Rather, it's aimed at the city behind you - parts that were still not fully evacuated!
cubey@aol.pl (18:50:04): Siphor: "There is no escaping from this. Not unless you want thousands of lives on your conscience."
cubey@aol.pl (18:50:25): Saibok: "Now that's what I'm talking about. Saturnia's death will be repaid in blood a million fold!"
tengusaur (18:50:36): Roger: "Do you care about killing tthose people more than winning this fight?"
Wyverncakes (18:50:37): Mizuki: "No."
cubey@aol.pl (18:50:38): (Also, Archie can go.)
cubey@aol.pl (18:50:48): Siphor: "Maybe? Who knows."
Wyverncakes (18:50:55): "... You're not bringing death to this place!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:51:01): A low, wicked laughter.
aldo salt (18:53:11): "All that gravity you throw around must be weighing down your soul…let's lighten it, shall we?" Dido says, turning a dial overcharging SolSavior's reactor. "Mizuki! I'm pulling out all the stops!"
Wyverncakes (18:53:41): Mizuki: "Alright then..."
Wyverncakes (18:54:27): But rather than simply defend... the goal was to overpower.
Wyverncakes (18:54:43): "You three..."
frifreeman (18:54:50): ARchie: "You're not going away! Fire all the missiles!"
Wyverncakes (18:55:06): "Face the judgment of the light and the dark!"
frifreeman (18:55:10): Smilodon fires all of its remaining missiles toward the escaping bird mech.+
Wyverncakes (18:55:59): * Hands charged up again, SolSavior thrust them out and looses its own massive unified blast of energy! "SHARE SATURNIA'S FATE! SOL! SAL-VATION!"+
Wyverncakes (18:56:27): With everything their machines could commit, she struck at them.
aldo salt (18:57:38): Dido: "C'mon! Pierce through!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:22): The Slaughterbird jumps over one of the missiles as it explodes underneath it.
cubey@aol.pl (18:58:42): It takes to the skies, flying between Kill and Deathbirds and lets them take on the attacks, exploding in its stead.
VJockey (18:58:51): "COWARD!"
cubey@aol.pl (18:59:01): Yet, eventually, one of the shots knocks it out of the sky... and the rest of the missiles aim straight at it.
cubey@aol.pl (18:59:12): Covered in a series of explosions, the Avian unit is destroyed.
cubey@aol.pl (18:59:27): Cassowary Emperor: "Nephew? ... You will pay for that, felines!"
tengusaur (19:00:24): Roger: "Live by the sword, die by the sword. The SolEraser team is about to learn it as well."
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:28): At the same, the Sol Salvation and Horizon Buster clash against one another, in a duel not unlike you'd see in a certain show about flying overly muscular blonde people.
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:42): Azel: "That was your mistake."
VJockey (19:00:43): "No. You shall pay. You shall pay for thinking you can simply assault both cat and mankind!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:00:45): However...
drascin (19:00:55): Kagura: WE'LL BE WAITING, BIRDIE.
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:07): SolSavior is way too damaged and even if it wasn't for that, the ripoff version is simply much more powerful!
VJockey (19:01:23): "This was what Archie and I were born for! Were trained for! We shall bring your head to the grave marker of our father BIRD!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:34): The Buster is overcoming your attack, and draws closer and closer - which makes the team feel gravitic pressure, making fighting back even harder.
Wyverncakes (19:01:37): Mizuki: "No... not again...!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:44): It looks like it's the end... for people behind you.
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:53): And possibly for you as well, unless you flee this very moment.
cubey@aol.pl (19:01:57): What do you do?
cubey@aol.pl (19:02:02): What do you do, SolSavior?
Wyverncakes (19:02:12): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugkujCfe7ek
Wyverncakes (19:02:48): What was she to do? Run and let those people die? Let things continue as they were and join them?
aldo salt (19:02:50): Junctions are overheating one after the other. Dido plays damage control. "Mizuki! Ken! We've got seconds left! Do something!"
Wyverncakes (19:03:02): No... there was always something. Always something!
Wyverncakes (19:03:05): "Everything..."
Wyverncakes (19:03:16): A spark of dark energy erupted from SolSavior.
Wyverncakes (19:03:28): "Everything we have... everything... I have!"
Wyverncakes (19:03:55): Not just get worn out after a fight but everything she could possibly bring out fom her own Void energies. All of it! All of it!
Wyverncakes (19:04:39): Darkness swept across SolSavior's entire form, Mizuki clenching her teeth and screaming out as the machine's entire form suddenly grew pitch black, enveloped inside of a dark aura. Darkness within darkness within darkness.
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:45): (By the way, everyone can act, not just SolSavior)
Wyverncakes (19:04:48): Dido, Ken...? This is going to hurt.
cubey@aol.pl (19:04:49): (In case it wasn't clear)
Wyverncakes (19:05:22): And then suddenly, two words.
Wyverncakes (19:05:32): "SAVE THEM!"
VJockey (19:06:03): "!!"
aldo salt (19:06:06): Dido: "Ah…Ah!" She grits her teeth as pain ripples throughout her boy. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" She flicks one final switch with all her strength that disables the reactor safeties!
VJockey (19:06:21): "Targetting solutions-"
VJockey (19:06:28): "Need Targetting- THERE!"
Wyverncakes (19:06:55): * And at once pats of SolSavior suddenly begin to explode and burst off, its dark form conflicting in the world of light it was fighting to defend... but with those words came a sudden eruption of energy from SolSavior's hands. The Salvation, now suddenly pure-black, blasted at SolEraser's own attack with renewed fury and hatred!+
Wyverncakes (19:07:15): Mizuki: "YOU THREE... FOR EVERYTHING... DIE!"
VJockey (19:07:23): *Whatever attacks happen, they are followed with a hailstorm of metal!+
drascin (19:08:12): *Well, Kagura can't stop that huge attack. But while the gravitation is focused on the front, well, that's a free shot if she's ever seen one. And so she dives at her absolute top speed while focusing her SOL reactor to as much as it'll go without needing to override safeties - using the inertia to defeat as much of the remaining gravity defense as possible and get as close as she can - and while the Sol team is blasting the front, Kagura lets go a blast of its own right to the robot's spine!+
aldo salt (19:09:03): "G-GOOOOO…TO….HELLLLLL!" Dido manages to screech out. Then, the pain overwhelms her and she slumps in her cockpit, unconscious.
tengusaur (19:10:27): * While everyone else is attacking Sol Eraser, Roger does his own thing - he fires another Chrome Buster, but this time instead of letting it go straight, he guides the large beam over the enemy forces in the air in a large arc, trying to catch as many of them in the blast as possible! This includes the Indalph enemies as well. +
tengusaur (19:11:22): Roger: "Do you think we'll just watch as you try to massacre the people of this city? Farewell!"
cubey@aol.pl (19:11:54): Charging forward, Kagura notices that SolEraser is already starting to make a move...
cubey@aol.pl (19:11:59): On the other hand...
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:28): SolSavior team - components of your machine break one by one, especially the DuskBird related ones.
cubey@aol.pl (19:12:56): But it doesn't matter! Somehow, your beam grows in power, and starts to, little by little, turn back the tide.
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:06): Siphor: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:09): Siphor: "Heh."
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:14): He smirks in his cockpit.
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:21): And SolEraser flees, abandoning its attack!
cubey@aol.pl (19:13:50): It flies off to the side, being hit by Kagura's attack but ignoring the damage, instead trying to get away as quick as possible.
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:01): Which means the SolSalvation and all the other attacks...
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:10): Saibok: "What the"
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:14): Hit the Last Shining instead.
cubey@aol.pl (19:14:46): By coincidence, the golden battleship was positioned just behind the Eraser.
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:05): And now it suffers the brunt of it - the bridge caves in and the whole ship starts shaking, eventually exploding!
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:18): Needless to say, the remaining Indalph units are thrown into disarray.
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:30): Except for the SolEraser, which quickly flees, cutting down anything that stands on its way.
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:36): Be it an Avian Empire mook...
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:40): Or an Indalph.
Wyverncakes (19:15:48): It's hard to tell what exactly happened...
cubey@aol.pl (19:15:59): The remaining enemies are in retreat.
Wyverncakes (19:16:23): Mizuki's head is spinning, her eyes practically burning and her whole body feeling like it has nothing left in it.
Wyverncakes (19:16:32): But still that explosion must've meant...
Wyverncakes (19:16:40): "Got... someone..."
VJockey (19:16:44): "...Both enemy leaders..."
VJockey (19:16:47): "accounted for..."
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:50): It seems somehow, against all, you were successful.
cubey@aol.pl (19:16:58): However, a new enemy of humanity has revealed themselves.
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:26): Will humans prevail against the...
Wyverncakes (19:17:26): And at that point she just collapses to the floor of her "throne room", SolSavior falling too.
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:34): Fury of the Avian Empire?!
cubey@aol.pl (19:17:38): Mission successful.
drascin (19:18:18): Kagura: WELL THAT WAS INTERESTING.
drascin (19:18:31): Kagura: THIS IS KAGURA TO BASE. MEDICAL TEAM REQUESTED. URGENT.
