Mission 104 - Collaboration
cubey@aol.pl (15:02:50): News has it that, while Unity Group was helping GDF in space - SSR launched an offensive of its own.
cubey@aol.pl (15:02:58): Its target? The rogue state of NUNE.
cubey@aol.pl (15:03:19): The campaign was successful, with NUNE military strength broken. All that remains of its army are stragglers.
cubey@aol.pl (15:03:29): Stragglers that unfortunately now seek to profit from targets of opportunity.
cubey@aol.pl (15:03:57): Such as a South American city, which was both relatively unguarded and reported presence of NUNE forces nearby!
cubey@aol.pl (15:04:08): Time to defend it Unity Group - deploy and save those people!
cubey@aol.pl (15:04:15): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddyd8WxIOUY
cubey@aol.pl (15:06:52): You are on board of a Unity Group shuttle.
cubey@aol.pl (15:07:04): A little more cramped than usual. The larger models are rarely used due to lack of funding.
griefgathering (15:07:28): Nep: "Ah...real money problems..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:07:31): Pilot: "We're getting close! Looks like the enemy's airborne..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:07:40): Pilot: "So much for an airdrop ambush."
Peter Kampschroeder (15:07:41): Cethlenn looks kind of sad jammed into a corner...
griefgathering (15:07:43): Nep: "Almost like the last game!"
Peter Kampschroeder (15:08:00): Jen: "What on earth are you babbling about now..."
tengusaur (15:08:12): Roger gives Nep an unamused and confused look.
VJockey (15:08:15): [Regalis Filia is practically curled up into a ball.]
cubey@aol.pl (15:08:24): You can see NUNE models flying above the city. At least you think they're NUNE - you fought only some of them.
cubey@aol.pl (15:08:31): The mobile suits open fire, seeing you approach!
cubey@aol.pl (15:08:38): Pilot: "Oh boy! This is where I tell you, good luck!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:08:57): The shuttle moves down to land, but you have to make it quick. Especially since enemies are in the streets, too!
cubey@aol.pl (15:09:13): Initiative: Peola, Jen, Ken, Roger, Nep, Grace
tengusaur (15:09:25): Roger: "We'll take care of this from now on. Get to safety, pilot! Big O, showtime!"
VJockey (15:09:42): "Shouldn't take that long. We've fought tougher."
cubey@aol.pl (15:09:48): Enemies: Daughtress Flyer x15, Gadeel x4, Balient x8, Daughtress High Mobility Command
cubey@aol.pl (15:10:00): Peola, Jen, Ken, go!
cubey@aol.pl (15:10:10): Daughtress Flyer
http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/x/dt-6800f.jpg
Gadeel
http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/x/nrma-006.jpg
Balient
http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/x/nrx-009.jpg
Daughtress High Mobility Command
http://www.mahq.net/mecha/gundam/x/dt-6800hmc.jpg
griefgathering (15:10:19): Nep: "Well it was post-apocalyptic and- whoa! I guess I'll explain later."
cubey@aol.pl (15:10:52): NUNE commander: "Some pests are coming this way? Get lost! This is NUNE territory now!"
tengusaur (15:11:21): Roger: "What do you think you're doing, preying on unarmed civilians? I thought NUNE has more pride than that!"
VJockey (15:11:24): *The moment the Regalis Filia could pull itself out of the shuttle it takes several rapid steps towards the Daughtress HM with her still Sheathed Sword at the ready to send it to go meet its friends in the air! Swing batter batter SWING!+
cubey@aol.pl (15:11:30): The Daughtresses are converging on your location, moving through the streets and on rooftops, while other mobile suits provide air support.
griefgathering (15:11:41): After summoning her sheathed sword, the tiny goddess disembarks the shuttle along with the rest.
Meraxa (15:12:11): Ken: Time to deploy then. *Ken's got ScarleTiger in its beast mode, what with the lower profile and all. Once the shuttle touches down, the machine launches like out of a racing pen.* You can't just steal cities, creeps! *And the machine leaps, bearing fangs and claws upon the nearest Daughtresses+
VJockey (15:12:21): "Feh... like I'd listen to a scavenger like you. Go put your territory in the clouds!"
Peter Kampschroeder (15:12:37): *Cethlenn hits the ground running, diving straight towards some of the NUNE forces. "Gonna want to keep damage to the city low, so...!" She goes straight for a Daughtress, punching with her beam knuckle for its cockpit-and then turns and fires off two pistol shots at another.+
cubey@aol.pl (15:12:39): Commander: "Desperate times call for desperate measures. Our territory was invaded, we need to take more by force!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:13:24): Seeing Regalis Filia apparoach, the high mobility command suit uses its feet thrusters to zoom out of the way. It grabs at a weapon and fires it.... literally! It's a flamethrower!
cubey@aol.pl (15:13:26): React, Peola.
tengusaur (15:14:28): Roger shakes his head. Good job handling the NUNE situation in a professional manner, SSR.
cubey@aol.pl (15:14:31): While ScarleTiger is busy ripping one Daughtress up, several more take steps back but also fire machine gun rounds at it! Ken eact.
VJockey (15:14:32): *Yeah no, Peola's going to just kick off from the ground into a leaping shoulder charge through the flames - scarf first!+
tengusaur (15:15:08): Roger: "We won't let you attack this city. If you value your lives, cease your assault. It's not too late yet!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:15:27): Cethlenn may be a small unit, but the beam knuckle is aimed at a stragetic point - and Daughtresses are old mass produced suits. That's one less!
cubey@aol.pl (15:15:49): Unfortunately as Jen aims her pistol at another one of them, she stares down a missile launcher. One which fires. React!
cubey@aol.pl (15:16:39): Regalis Filia is starting to smell like something's burning...
Peter Kampschroeder (15:16:57): *Jen drops the beam knuckle for a moment, grabbing her pistol with both hands-and opens fire on the missiles headed her way, and the the suit launching them.+
cubey@aol.pl (15:17:22): The Dom, I mean Daughtress High Mobility Command, swerves back at the last moment. Peola dropkicks a crater into the road, not hitting the mobile suit - but throwing it off balance, forcing it to flail a bit before regaining it.
cubey@aol.pl (15:17:31): Commander: "Do not listen to them, men! Fight to the last!"
VJockey (15:18:16): "Someone want to tell these idiots what we've spent our time fighting?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:18:21): The missile explodes while inside the launcher's tube. The weapon is wrecked and the Daughtress that held it is thrown back by the blast, damaged.
Meraxa (15:18:41): The ScarleTiger tries to dash away at the sudden gunfire! Disappearing into a side street, the mecha might seem silent... Until it leaps up, in humanoid form, and lashes its scarlet whip against the attackers!+
Peter Kampschroeder (15:19:08): Jen: "Come on, you're just being common Vultures now!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:20:05): A few bullets graze against ScarleTiger... but the NUNE pilots seem confused as their target is gone. Before they can get to the skies, Ken returns - the whip tripping and melting one mobile suit into a useless heap!
cubey@aol.pl (15:20:08): Roger, Neptune and Grace, go
griefgathering (15:24:12): Nep: *"Ain't no other way out of it, huh?" The small figure runs along a street and jumps atop a building. A building from which she then leaps on the nearest Daughtress and tries to cut one of its arms off!+ "Deyaah!"
frifreeman (15:24:35): Grace's Daughtress kneels on top of a building, its tarp covering billowing with the wind. It slowly stands as enemies flying around her.
tengusaur (15:24:36): Roger: "Seems like it. But let's see how will the rest of them fare once their commander is down!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:26:02): The Daughtress stares in shock having just lost its arm. But it quickly draws a beam saber with another one - human sized enemy or not, it tries to slash to end the video game goddess! React.
tengusaur (15:26:36): * Big O approaches the Daughtress Command from an opposite direction than Peola, trying to limit the enemy's field of maneuvering. As soon as Roger is close enough, he launches a wide hook at the opponent's face, then grabs his limbs and tries to pull them apart! +
cubey@aol.pl (15:27:18): Commander: "What?!" The mobile suit gets its head partially caved in by the hook - and quickly tries to boost away from Big O!
cubey@aol.pl (15:27:21): "Protect me, now!"
frifreeman (15:27:43): Grace: "Preying on the weak and downtrodden. Don't you have any shame?" She says as her mech's sensors lit up. "I, Grace Wallach (www.gracefuldiscount.com), won't let you get away with this lightly!" She says as she draws her two guns, one mech-sized revolver and the other the beam spray gun, points them at a daughtress that flies toward her, and starts shooting.
cubey@aol.pl (15:27:44): While Roger tries to continue the attack, from behind a trio of Balients strafes and fires a series of missiles down on Big O.
cubey@aol.pl (15:27:46): React!
cubey@aol.pl (15:28:45): The Daughtress seems to be taken by surprise and, after several shots, goes down trailing smoke!
griefgathering (15:28:53): *"Whoa-!" Nep attempts to slide, under the energy blade! "Hot, hot hot!" She has her sword held up as insurance, but if she gets past safely, she'll try to hack one of the MS' legs off with a series of slashes!+
cubey@aol.pl (15:29:20): Units next to it were a pair of Gadeel mobile armors - whose undermounted guns turn around, swiveling.
cubey@aol.pl (15:29:28): They fire beam shots in Grace's direction. React.
tengusaur (15:30:23): Roger: "You're not much without the help of men you command to prey on the innocent, are you?" Big O turns halfway around, its eyes glowing, and then fires two Arc Lines from them, aiming to intercept the incoming missiles. +
cubey@aol.pl (15:30:39): The beam blade is easy to dodge. A mobile suit finds a human sized enemy harder to dodge though. The legless Daughtress tumbles down, uselessly.
frifreeman (15:31:39): Grace jumps from her perching point and spins sideways gracefully to dodge the incoming beam shot, and she disappears behind the mess of buildings. below
griefgathering (15:31:52): Nep: "Phew..."
frifreeman (15:32:28): You can hear a raucous and totally ungraceful crashing sounds a second after that, but don't mind it
frifreeman (15:32:30): +
cubey@aol.pl (15:32:42): Grace manages to escape the beams, while Roger shoots down most of the missiles. One or two explode against Big O's armor, but it's nothing.
cubey@aol.pl (15:32:44): And yes.
cubey@aol.pl (15:32:47): Disregard the crash.
cubey@aol.pl (15:32:51): How about this, though?
cubey@aol.pl (15:33:03): ???: "Should I sing an aria about this villainy and lack of principles?!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:33:20): "Or is the topic ill fitting? I suggest a better one then!"
VJockey (15:33:27): "........."
cubey@aol.pl (15:33:35): A new, but well known and unwanted arrival, moves heavily through the streets.
Peter Kampschroeder (15:33:46): Jen: "...Just be quiet and fight."
cubey@aol.pl (15:33:47): Arma Vires
http://www.titanatelier.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/15154167_p15.png
griefgathering (15:33:52): Nep: "Nepu?"
VJockey (15:33:58): [A stab of pain jabbed into the back of Peola's head like the memory of a hangover.]
VJockey (15:34:07): "Gnnghgnghnghhhh..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:34:13): Xun: "Witness the body of a GOD!"
griefgathering (15:34:23): Nep: "Hey isn't that..." And then she notices Peola's reaction. "Oh."
VJockey (15:34:26): [There was a distinctly angry noise bubbling out from the Princess.]
cubey@aol.pl (15:34:27): Arma Vires flexes like a body builder.
tengusaur (15:35:20): Roger: "How about you wait with singing until this fight is over? Showing off, as well."
cubey@aol.pl (15:35:30): ??? #2: "Enough of this!"
griefgathering (15:35:48): Nep: "You're giving Pico a headache too."
cubey@aol.pl (15:35:49): Using its jump jets, a different (and unknown but still kinda familiar looking) unit lands on a high rooftop.
cubey@aol.pl (15:36:03): Rockdog
http://www.titanatelier.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/30563347.jpg
cubey@aol.pl (15:36:33): Cennetig: "Aff, I challenge everyone present!"
tengusaur (15:36:51): Roger: "...Another one."
VJockey (15:37:09): "..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:37:10): Cennetig: "We will arrange the battle and possible outcomes in a honorable way instead of endangering civilian lives."
Meraxa (15:37:13): Ken: ...Guess someone told them Peola had deployed.
tengusaur (15:38:01): Roger: "Protecting civilians is why we're here in the first place."
cubey@aol.pl (15:38:16): Xun: "What do you say, Peola? Enticed by the GREAT XUN, yet?"
Peter Kampschroeder (15:38:23): Jen: "Just start helping and don't break anything."
VJockey (15:38:47): "What she said."
cubey@aol.pl (15:38:51): Xun: "O ho! I promise to help, and the powerful Arma Vires will dismiss those curs in an instant."
cubey@aol.pl (15:38:58): Xun: "Under one condition."
cubey@aol.pl (15:39:28): Cennetig: "Do not force others into marriage, Xun Ostberg!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:39:37): Cennetig: "It should happen as a result of a predetermined duel!"
tengusaur (15:39:46): Roger: "..."
VJockey (15:40:00): "....."
griefgathering (15:40:01): Nep: "..."
Meraxa (15:40:05): Ken: ...Hey, you two!
VJockey (15:40:11): [Peola's going to take a deep breath and sigh tiredly.]
Meraxa (15:40:32): Ken: Do the others know about this as well?
VJockey (15:40:35): "Its probably bad that this is the best we'd get from them."
cubey@aol.pl (15:40:53): NUNE Commander: "That's rich! You two done yet?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:40:59): Cennetig: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:41:02): Xun: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:41:14): Commander: "Where's your boss?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:41:33): Cennetig: "No one but honor and my order is the leader of mine! What are you..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:41:54): ???: "Enough of this."
cubey@aol.pl (15:41:59): You hear a sound of slow clapping.
VJockey (15:42:27): [The Regalis Filia is slowly going to turn towards the source.]
cubey@aol.pl (15:42:32): You hear more familiar voices. You asked of others?
cubey@aol.pl (15:42:58): Phannuel: "Xun, Cennetig. You have put up a good attempt. However I expected the Earthlings to be immune to reason."
cubey@aol.pl (15:43:28): It's the annoyance from before - and his harem is there as well.
VJockey (15:43:33): "..."
griefgathering (15:43:34): Nep: "Ah, he's here too!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:43:37): Monika and Salwah are silent.
cubey@aol.pl (15:43:43): Ourania: "Oh, big sister. Hello!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:43:49): Regalis Eques (Phannuhel)

Regalis Atrox (Ourania)

Arma Venus (Monika)

Peter Kampschroeder (15:43:52): Jen: "Ah, it's that guy..."
VJockey (15:43:52): "Ourania.."
cubey@aol.pl (15:43:53): Regalis Atrox waves merrily.
VJockey (15:44:15): "Listen. This is a bad time. Whatever he wants you to do, don't."
griefgathering (15:44:25): Nep: "I don't get what you said before you left back then, but kalsjkasljfhsfsajdsakhsjf hfsajhdsajhsfgsaf to you, too!"
tengusaur (15:44:27): Roger: "Please, don't tell me Kliiment is going to show up as well..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:44:40): Phannuhel: "Why would this be a bad time?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:44:58): NUNE Commander: "You'd best not forget our deal, if you know what's good for you!"
VJockey (15:45:01): "Phannuhel. I have no idea what you're doing, but get out of here. Now."
cubey@aol.pl (15:45:08): Phannuhel: "Ah yes, that's right. Kliiment, are you there?"
Peter Kampschroeder (15:45:16): Jen: "...What did you do."
Meraxa (15:45:51): Ken: ...Deal?
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:01): Kliiment: "Yes. I read you loud and clear."
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:11): Kliiment: "And my guests are here as well."
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:33): Grace - around the corner, while you try to get up from the crash, you see Kliiment's machine and minions.
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:44):
Arma Summas (Kliiment)
http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=1211543
Arma Miles
http://s1236.photobucket.com/user/pileofrobots/media/16897007_m.png.html
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:55): As well as a large group of local civilians, held at gunpoint by the Armas.
cubey@aol.pl (15:46:58): They are hostages!
tengusaur (15:47:10): Roger: "I figured it was too much to ask..."
VJockey (15:47:21): "........................"
tengusaur (15:47:23): Roger: "What do you intend to do with those people?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:47:48): Phannuhel: "Nothing at all!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:47:55): Phannuhel: "Well. If you comply at least."
VJockey (15:48:01): "You absolute low down filthy honorless-"
griefgathering (15:48:05): Nep: "That's really low, kid."
cubey@aol.pl (15:48:11): "All I ask is for Peola to see the light and turn herself over to me."
cubey@aol.pl (15:48:20): Phannuhel: "WIth little bad mouthing if possible."
Peter Kampschroeder (15:48:37): Jen: "...Where do you think this is going to end?"
VJockey (15:48:40): [The Regalis Filia draws its blade and takes a step forward.]
cubey@aol.pl (15:48:46): Phannuhel: "You do that, and the locals will be let go. In fact, I will even dismiss the renegade NUNE force."
cubey@aol.pl (15:48:53): Commander: "Hey!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:49:00): Phannuhel: "Shut up for a second will you."
Meraxa (15:49:03): Ken: ...You're worse than I thought...
cubey@aol.pl (15:49:07): Cennetig: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:49:24): Cennetig: "Phannuhel! You dishonorable... this is not how this was supposed to go!"
tengusaur (15:49:37): Roger: "Hiring NUNE to attack a defenseless city. Hiring Kliiment, one of your rivals (and objectively the worst one) to take hostages. Do you really want to win Peola's heart this way?"
VJockey (15:49:42): "These people have nothing to do with this! What in the Sun were you even thinking dragging them into matters that don't even involve this planet!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:04): Kliiment: "And I should care, how? These people are savages. Barely even human."
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:18): Phannuhel: "If you disagree with my methods Cennetig, you may as well leave."
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:21): Cennetig: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:26): Cennetig: "And I will."
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:37): The Rockdog boosts away!
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:44): Phannuhel: "Oh well. Your decision, Peola?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:55): Phannuhel: "I give you ten seconds."
VJockey (15:50:55): "Ghh...."
cubey@aol.pl (15:50:59): Kliiment: "Prepare to fire, men."
cubey@aol.pl (15:51:20): Kliiment: "Five."
Peter Kampschroeder (15:51:25): Jen: "Don't do this!"
VJockey (15:51:33): [Peola shuts her eyes, her Machina's grip on its sword tightening.... before it flips it and slams the blade point down in the ground.]
VJockey (15:51:36): "Fine..."
VJockey (15:51:40): "You win."
cubey@aol.pl (15:51:54): Phannuhel: "Ah! I knew you'd see the light of reason. Come to my side!"
Meraxa (15:52:08): Ken: Reason...?! You call this reason?!
tengusaur (15:53:22): Roger: (allies only) "We should make sure the hostages are safe first. You can yell at him all you want after that. I hope Peola has a plan on her mind."
VJockey (15:53:59): [With nothing else for it, the Regalis Filia walks towards Phannuhel and company. Unlike the eager and ready stance it always carried itself with, this seemed to have an air of defeat and suppressed anger.]
Peter Kampschroeder (15:54:40): Jen: "Peola...."
cubey@aol.pl (15:55:06): Xun: "Don't worry. You still have a chance to change your mind, you must simply see the greatness of THE Xun Ost..."
cubey@aol.pl (15:55:10): Phannuhel: "Well then."
cubey@aol.pl (15:55:14): Xun: "Ghhk!"
griefgathering (15:55:15): Yeah, Nep's trying to see what she can do about those hostages too.
cubey@aol.pl (15:55:39): Suddenly, with a move of Regalis Atrox's hand, a whole lot of energy spears and blades are conjured - impaling Xun's Arma from behind!
Peter Kampschroeder (15:55:53): Jen: "...I'm going to find you. Wherever he-"
cubey@aol.pl (15:55:56): Ourania: "I don't think so. Sorry~"
cubey@aol.pl (15:56:11): Phannuhel: "Well now that this is over and done with."
cubey@aol.pl (15:56:30): Regalis Eques sweeps Regalis Filia up, into being mounted with it.
griefgathering (15:56:57): Nep: "I don't want to imagine how mad she is now..."
VJockey (15:56:58): "What-!?"
cubey@aol.pl (15:57:01): Phannuhel: "I never asked for rivals.... but alas, poor Xun Ostberg, cut down by treacherous locals!"
Meraxa (15:57:09): Ken: ... You bastard...
cubey@aol.pl (15:57:11): Phannuhel: "Do what you want Kliiment."
VJockey (15:57:16): [Xun was a pompous windbag but that was too much!]
tengusaur (15:57:18): Roger: "Is this how you take care of your rivals? Xun!"
tengusaur (15:57:47): Roger: "He did not deserve this."
Peter Kampschroeder (15:57:50): Jen (To allies): "Tell me you have the hostages secured, please." There's no hiding the anger in her voice.
cubey@aol.pl (15:57:54): Kliiment: "Attack all enemies! They won't dare lift a finger on us while we still have hostages!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:58:11): Six of Arma Miles move towards you, but two still trail their guns on the hostages.
VJockey (15:58:14): "!!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:58:28): Phannuhel: "I have no choice but to wage war on this puny little, treasonous planet. Oh well."
griefgathering (15:58:52): Nep: "Yeah, well, -you're- puny!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:58:56): Phannuhel: "I am sure with just a little work it would make a fine ground for my summer palace, with Kliiment as its majordomo. In the meantime..."
Meraxa (15:58:56): Ken: ...So THAT's how it is...
VJockey (15:59:00): "War-... Have you lost your mind?!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:59:05): Phannuhel: "Let's get rid of these annoyances, shall we?!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:59:22): NUNE Commander: "Tch! Should've expected better than to..."
Peter Kampschroeder (15:59:35): Jen: "...Try me. If you're man enough."
tengusaur (15:59:36): Roger: "You are really crossing the line, Phannuel!"
cubey@aol.pl (15:59:36): The Command Daughtress is suddenly silenced, a lance thrown into its head.
cubey@aol.pl (15:59:41): Phannuhel: "Shut up will you."
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:03): And after this interlude - the fight begins anew. Enemies are rushing towards you!
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:43): Enemies (Phannuhel's gang): Regalis Eques (Phannuhel), Regalis Atrox (Ourania), Arma Volnus (Salwah), Arma Venus (Monika), Arma Summas (Kliiment), Arma Miles x8
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:48): Peola, Ken, Roger, go!
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:50): Err
cubey@aol.pl (16:00:53): Jen, Ken, Roger
cubey@aol.pl (16:01:11): Also the NUNE are still here, though what they will do remains a mystery.
tengusaur (16:02:00): Roger: "You already have what you came here for. Why do you intend to make this situation worse!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:02:18): Phannuhel: "Worse? For whom?"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:02:22): Jen: "You're all...getting...on my nerves..."
tengusaur (16:02:39): Roger: "Do you think Peola will ever forgive you for all of this?"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:02:55): Jen: "...So just die already!"
VJockey (16:03:07): "Just going to say that I won't!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:03:14): Ourania: "It's okay."
cubey@aol.pl (16:03:26): Ourania: "Phannuhel doesn't need sister to forgive him. Because he has me!"
Meraxa (16:05:05): Ken: And why does he need you after this? *Ken calls out, as ScarleTiger drops from sight. Carefully, he tries to sneak through the city and towards the hostages... before leaping out, with Shotels drawn, and aiming to slice the guns off the Armas!+
tengusaur (16:05:14): Roger: (allies) "I will try to rescue the hostages. But the help of someone with a faster machine would be good, in case things don't go smooth."
Peter Kampschroeder (16:05:16): *Cethlenn holsters its pistol, and extends its nanobot cloud. A line of metal goes out from each of its hands, a wire thin enough to cut. Jen rushes straight for Phannuhel, those monofiliament whips slicing down at the super robot-and cutting apart any bits of the scenery in their way.+
griefgathering (16:05:40): Nep: (to Crow Man) "I gotcha!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:06:26): Monika: "W... wait!"
tengusaur (16:06:48): * Big O takes steps forward, to engage the enemies... But suddenly it turns to the side! "Now!" Roger slams a button in his cockpit, releasing two Moby Dick Anchors flying towards the Armas holding their guns on the hostages! He tries to knock them down and reel them in! +
frifreeman (16:06:56): #roger
cubey@aol.pl (16:07:08): As Jen charges, the Arma Venus suddenly interposes itself (rather clumsily), trying to fire at the limb that holds the whip. React!
frifreeman (16:07:09): *I meant@
cubey@aol.pl (16:07:17): Approved.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:09:03): *Jen: "Shut up! And leave!" One of Cethlenn's grappling hooks shoots out from its shoulders, yanking it towards a building to the side. Her original target blocked, Jen wastes no time and spares no mercy in having her new slicy whips dance across Arma Venus's form.+
frifreeman (16:09:43): After getting up from her crash, Grace has been secretly sneaking around the buildings, trying to find a good timing to appear. Apparently now is the time. Her mech jumps from behind the alleys like a stray ninja cat, and launches a couple of pellets from under her tarp. The pellet explodes into smoke screen..
frifreeman (16:09:44): +
cubey@aol.pl (16:11:45): Suddenly a smoke screen obscures the group of hostages! The Arma pilots seem surprised at first - but then try to fire!
cubey@aol.pl (16:12:47): However, they find that impossible. Their guns are cut into, and then they are thrown back by the Moby Dick Anchors. The mass produced units are away from the hostages and explode now!
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:09): Kliiment: "How noble! But have you forgotten that I am here too?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:18): Kliiment: "Now these low lives will pay for your action!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:28): The Arma Summas raises a sword to slice down at the hostages!
griefgathering (16:13:36): #?
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:43): No need.
cubey@aol.pl (16:13:50): Cennetig: "KLIIIIMENT!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:20): The Rockdog swoops down at Kliiment's unit, all guns blazing. The two are thrown off, to the side, while Cennetig's unit continues to fire both physical rounds and beams!
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:34): Cennetig: "Your dishonor ends here!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:46): Kliiment: "Tra... ghh! Traitor!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:14:57): Monika: "Aaah!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:14): She abandons the attack and raises her unit's hands to defend herself, parts of it being cut off one by one.
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:25): Monika: "I'm... sorry, Phannuhel!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:31): She tries to retreat.
cubey@aol.pl (16:15:42): Phannuhel: "Trying hard as usual, Monika. Shame about the results..."
tengusaur (16:15:44): Roger: "Very good. The hostages are safe! I'm going to help Cennetig take down this bastard!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:02): Salwah: "If you only noticed, really how hard..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:06): Nep, Grace, go.
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:30): Cennetig: "Any help would be appreciated. It looks like I am overheating!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:16:52): Kliiment: "Gaah! Get off me you outdated crazed warrior monk!"
griefgathering (16:16:56): Nep: "I haven't heard that in a while! Well, not me, the other me from before."
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:05): With a swing of its sword, Arma Summas throws the Rockdog away.
Meraxa (16:17:21): Ken directs his attention to Monika and Salwah. "Are you two really still buying into his crap?!"
tengusaur (16:17:27): Roger: "...Does anyone have any idea what she meant by that?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:53): Salwah: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:17:56): Monika: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:29): Phannuhel: "Of course they would never betray me for Earthlings. I know Salwah and Monika well. We were friends for so long, weren't we?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:18:44): Ourania: "Don't forget about me!"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:19:31): Jen lands from the side of the building she had grappled over to. "People who just stand by as someone uses others as toys...People who don't have the strength to stand on their own...I don't have any time for you two miserable piles of shit! Stand aside!"
Meraxa (16:19:36): Ken: Instead, you're having them betray their own kind. Xun didn't deserve being shot in the back by his own princess!
frifreeman (16:19:39): And after throwing the smoke bomb grace run forward. "Hiiyaaah!" he says as she enter the smoke cloud, guns blazing toward Klimment's MEch, and when she's close enoguh, a knifeolds out from her daughtress' arm and she stabs Klimment's ARma with it.+
VJockey (16:19:40): "... Damnit. Think about what happened before!"
VJockey (16:19:47): "Think about what he's doing now!"
VJockey (16:20:13): "He's not the person you think he is!"
griefgathering (16:22:14): *Kliiment's being taken on by two units already, so Nep approaches Phannhuhel's gang as well. "Like a kangaroo! Take this, Blast Edge!" She leaps up after running and swings her blade, sending a wave of wind at the harem-master himself!+
cubey@aol.pl (16:24:03): Kliiment: "Urgh! What are you... another pest?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:24:22): His unit lacks cover from his guards, and has no defense against long ranged combat!
cubey@aol.pl (16:24:48): Grace manages to stab into the Arma Summas... however its arms start to shine with energy. The Daughtress's systems start to lock down.
cubey@aol.pl (16:24:56): Kliiment: "I will finish you with a single coup de grace!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:25:15): React to this attempt of mecha-paralysis - and whatever may come next!
cubey@aol.pl (16:25:36): Phannuhel: "Ha!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:25:51): The mounted unit raises its shield, interrupting those waves with minimal damage.
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:10): Phannuhel: "A temporary setback at best. This seems unfair but I'll have to ask you, Salwah, Monika, to..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:14): Monika: "..."
tengusaur (16:26:15): # Grace
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:16): Salwah: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:17): Approved
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:27): Phannuhel: "To...?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:26:49): Salwah: "I've had about enough of this!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:27:07): Monika: "Y, yes! This is not how... you should be acting!"
griefgathering (16:27:21): Nep: "You two..."
tengusaur (16:27:48): Roger: "I think not, Klimment!" Suddenly Big O moves in, blocking the asshole suitor's access to Grace's Daughtress with its own body - and giving his unit a sucker-punch to the face at the same time! +
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:01): Arma Velnus and Arma Venus attack the Regalis Atrox from two sides simultaneously, Monika firing quick (if badly aimed) rounds of machinegun beam fire while Salwah draws a curved sword and slashes with it, while tackling the mounted unit with heat spikes that cover her armor.
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:41): Phannuhel: "Whaaat?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:45): Ourania: "No, Phannuhel!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:28:56): The attack manages to tumble the unit - and also Peola's, off the high horse!
cubey@aol.pl (16:29:10): Phannuhel: "You... you two!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:29:15): Phannuhel: "Not you two, as well!"
VJockey (16:29:16): "Whoa!"
frifreeman (16:29:19): Grace's mech is in the verge of mecha paralysis all the time anyway. You wonder if Grace even realizes that it's because of Klimment's attack or it's just because a hydraulic pipe somewhere is blocked. "Aw come on." Grace frantically pulls various levers, and a slick of oil plop underneath her, smoke spread around her mech, and steel cable launch all over her mechs, Hopefully something helpfull will happen because of this.+
griefgathering (16:29:21): Nep: "Nice going!"
griefgathering (16:29:31): Thumbs up from the tiny.
cubey@aol.pl (16:29:32): He quickly raises up, and already counters with a wide whirlwind slash! Phannuhel is targetting his own ex-harem members.
VJockey (16:29:49): "Not going to complain about it but-!"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:29:54): #Monika
cubey@aol.pl (16:29:58): Approved.
VJockey (16:30:00): #Salwah?
cubey@aol.pl (16:30:03): Also approved
griefgathering (16:30:17): Nep: "Watch out!"
griefgathering (16:30:34): Nep: "He doesn't know when to stay down!"
VJockey (16:31:10): *Peola's quickly snapping her scarf towards her previously abandoned sword as she dashes to interpose herself between the former-haremette and Phannuhel! Using the large blade as a shield for both herself and Salwah.+
cubey@aol.pl (16:31:15): Kliiment: "A desperate attempt, but futile... gah!"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:31:20): *The tiny Cethlenn deploys its grappling hooks, soaring through the air-and trying to land on the flat of Phannuhel's sword as it reaches Monika, using the mecha's own wait to throw off his strike.+
cubey@aol.pl (16:31:37): A spray of oil blinds his unit, but he stabs anyway - into Big O's shield arm.
cubey@aol.pl (16:31:49): Arma Summas is thrown back by the massive Megadeus punch!
cubey@aol.pl (16:34:37): Peola manages to use the sword to parry the hit, slowed down by Jen's intervention.
cubey@aol.pl (16:34:48): However... you heard a worrying cracking noise as the blades clash.
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:02): Phannuhel: "That's impossible! Everyone betrays me!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:10): Phannuhel: "I am fed up with this planet!"
VJockey (16:35:29): "I'm pretty sure everyone on this planet is fed up with you!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:35): Ourania: "... I am still there!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:35:47): Ourania: "Do not forget me, I'll be there always. No matter what."
VJockey (16:35:50): "You're no walk in the gardens for the people of Magnolys either!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:09): Kliiment: "I had about enough of this too. Form up, men. Kill everyone on our way."
Peter Kampschroeder (16:36:30): Jen: "Who wouldn't want to betray a slimeball like you!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:35): Kliiment and his Arma mooks are trying to move away, possibly retreating. Though they still shoot, destroying a few NUNE suits that still remained nearby.
cubey@aol.pl (16:36:43): Peola, Jen and Ken, go!
tengusaur (16:37:02): Roger: "You're not just walking away from here, Kliiment!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:04): Salwah: "Phannuhel... you..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:17): Salwah: "Is there anything you really care about?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:41): Monika: "Ah... that was close..."
cubey@aol.pl (16:37:49): Sweating bullets in the Arma Venus there.
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:09): Cennetig: "Aff. Dishonor such as that must be paid for. Stand your ground, Kliiment!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:30): The Rockdog stands up, its guns smoking - but hopefully it can fire a few times more before overheating into an explosive fireball.
cubey@aol.pl (16:38:39): (Cennetig available for supports, same for Salwah and Monika)
Peter Kampschroeder (16:39:25): *Jen's two longer whips retract into balls of smoky-looking nanobots again, then reform-they are shorter, but this time there are ten of them, one for each finger. Jen wastes no time in rushing Phannuhel, paying no attention to the office building her weapons slice through on their way to strike him.+
Meraxa (16:40:03): (Enemy list?)
VJockey (16:40:37): *Peola was going to heft her blade and keep it at the ready, resting the flat of it on the Filia's open palm. Damaged as it was... a sword is still a sword. And it can still cut! She dashes forward, sending her ki surging through the blade to strike at the knightly machina with a distinctly unknightly wielder!+
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:39): Enemies: Regalis Eques (Phannuhel), Regalis Atrox (Ourania), Arma Summas (Kliiment), Arma Miles x6
cubey@aol.pl (16:40:58): There is also a small number of NUNE suits around but they are in disarray and not shooting at anyone. For now.
Meraxa (16:42:20): Ken: Ourania, look at what's happening! *Ken rushes the large Atrox, aiming for its palms with his red hot Shotels!+
Meraxa (16:42:47): Ken: How can you continue to justify what's happening?!
cubey@aol.pl (16:43:07): Ourania: "I don't suppose 'love' is an answer you're going to accept?!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:43:34): Regalis Atrox was going to block at least some of the attacks aimed at Phannuhel - but it's forced into a struggle with ScarleTiger.
cubey@aol.pl (16:43:59): Energy circles form around its hands, clashing against the shotels - and turning into blades that are shot forward to try to skewer it! Ken react.
Meraxa (16:44:40): Ken: 'Love' was worth betraying your sister, shooting Xun in the back, and involving innocent people?!
cubey@aol.pl (16:44:40): Phannuhel's shield is raised again, Peola's sword struggling against it, causing more worrying sounds...
cubey@aol.pl (16:44:56): But eventually...
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:10): The shield prevails! Phannuhel lowers it momentarily - to swing up!
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:19): Phannuhel: "I will have to take care of you first!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:57): The cleaving strike is a counter attack towards Jen, whose monofilament whips caused several thin but possibly deep cuts on Eques' armor!
cubey@aol.pl (16:45:58): React
VJockey (16:47:02): "Jen! Look out!"
Peter Kampschroeder (16:47:06): *Jen tries to yank herself out of the way with those grappling hooks again.+
Meraxa (16:47:14): Ken dives down, abandoning the shotels to avoid the spears. The ScarleTiger's hands are encased in claws, and the boy rises in a fiery, spiralling uppercut against the Atrox! +
cubey@aol.pl (16:49:35): Ourania: "Ahh! Won't a prince on a mighty steed save me?"
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:01): Some of the projectiles split into a shower of needles that pierce ScarleTiger from above.
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:28): However... the fiery uppercut attack throws Atrox back, causing its energy constructs to crack and disappear in a shower of glittering dust!
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:37): Its arm projectors seem damaged from the attack!
cubey@aol.pl (16:50:50): At the same time...
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:21): Jen was halfway through her evasive maneuver - but Phannuhel is fast and his blade strikes well.
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:35): You are thrown back by the force of the slash, even if it was not a direct hit!
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:52): Cethlenn is slammed into the wall of a building behind it, a gash visible going through most of its front.
Peter Kampschroeder (16:51:57): Jen: "Gah!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:51:58): Roger, Nep, Grace, go.
tengusaur (16:54:15): Roger: "Time to finish this." Big O fires a Moby Dick Anchor towards Arma Summas, and starts to reel the machine in. &
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:39): Kliiment: "I don't think so. Form up!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:56): The remaining Miles create a defensive wall with their own bodies, the anchor slamming into them. They also fire!
cubey@aol.pl (16:54:59): React/continue
griefgathering (16:57:20): *Making use of everyone else moving about as cover, Nep tries to get into a position where she can strike Ourania's Atrox. "Try this on for size! Thunder Crush!" She swings down, but from a range - three bolts of lightning suddenly shoot down from above!&
tengusaur (16:57:46): * Roger raises a shielded arm for protection, but at the same time uses his free hand to swing the anchor mightily, trying to throw the bodyguards into disarray and break their formation. "Now! Kliiment is wide open!" +
frifreeman (16:57:59): Grace's Daughress stand up and run toward Klemment's unit as she reloads. "Don't underestimate smallfolks!" She says, as steel cable flies from under the Daughtress' tarp and wrap itself around one of Klimment's mech wall with one end still attached to itself. Grace then starts to fire toward the wall of mech with both of her guns in rapid succession, before jumping sideways and using the steel cabel to spin around the formation and shooting all over it. "Take this! And this!"
tengusaur (16:58:30): Roger: "Cennetig, you know what to do!"
cubey@aol.pl (16:59:47): Ourania: "Oh no I don't think so! This kind of gift comes with a 'return to sender' card!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:19): Even though the Atrox is damaged, she still tries to use the emitters - to capture the lightning, and shoot it back towards Neptune, even as her own unit crackles with current that damages it.
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:22): React/continue
Meraxa (17:00:33): #Nep
cubey@aol.pl (17:00:41): Approved.
cubey@aol.pl (17:01:16): Roger and Grace wreck the wall, sending Armas flying around and outright destroying about half of them!
cubey@aol.pl (17:01:31): Cennetig: "Aff. Commencing ALPHA STRIIIIKE!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:01:55): The opening between you and Kliiment is suddenly full of bullets, missiles and beams.
Meraxa (17:03:03): Ken: Your 'prince' is taking his sweet time! *Ken descends after his uppercut, unleashing his whip as he lands behind the Atrox - and tries to pull it off balance to prevent its counter!+
griefgathering (17:03:52): Nep: "Whoops, didn't see that one coming. Thanks, Ninja guy! Now..."
griefgathering (17:04:38): She dashes forward, and the usual pink burst of light surrounds her. "Henshin!"
griefgathering (17:06:33): *Purple Heart emerges from the light and tries to catch the off-balance Atrox with a well placed sword strike, but that's not all. She looks over at one of the two haremettes as well. "Now!"+
griefgathering (17:06:45): Requesting @ from either Monika or Salwah
cubey@aol.pl (17:08:34): Ourania: "Ahh?!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:06): The thunderbolts fly way off theit target, shooting high into the sky. At the same time, the now transformed goddess slices into Regalis Atrox...
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:16): And she's followed up.
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:29): Salwah: "Just give up Ourania!""
cubey@aol.pl (17:09:51): She slams the sword into Regalis Atrox at point blank range, before firing the now deployed shoulder cannons for extra bang.
cubey@aol.pl (17:10:19): Ourania: "Aaaah, Salwah you!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:10:28): Ourania: "You know Phannuhel friendzoned you ages ago!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:23): ???: "Heh. Shut up he says..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:11:48): ???: "I'll show you yet, double crossing asshole!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:12:26): The destroyed Daughtress High Mobility Command lifts itself partially up. It was only mostly destroyed!
cubey@aol.pl (17:12:50): Its pilot fires the flamethrower, the NUNE Commander giving all it's got - before the unit explodes, overwhelmed by the damaged fuel tanks' instability!
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:11): Regardless, a stream of flammable substance flies towards Regalis Eques - and other NUNE units that were still around add to the barrage.
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:40): Phannuhel: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:13:55): He can't block against so many attacks at once.
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:00): So instead...
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:12): Regalis Eques kicks Regalis Atrox in the back, sending it forward to tank all the shots for it.
griefgathering (17:14:28): Purple Heart: "...?!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:14:29): Ourania: "Eeeeeeh"
VJockey (17:14:45): "!!"
VJockey (17:14:50): "Ourania-!"
Meraxa (17:15:19): Ken: ...'love', huh?
Meraxa (17:15:55): #Ourania
cubey@aol.pl (17:16:24): Approved
Meraxa (17:17:51): Given his position, it wasn't hard for Ken to get back to the Atrox' side - and give it a hard shove, to get it out of the line of fire+
cubey@aol.pl (17:20:04): ScarleTiger is admittedly a much smaller unit, which makes moving the Atrox hard.
cubey@aol.pl (17:20:30): But it also means the shots do not fly towards it, but rather miss their mark. However, even when you do that - both of your units are still damaged!
cubey@aol.pl (17:20:43): Phannuhel: "Ourania, I am sorry."
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:09): Phannuhel: "You thought you were special. But the truth is... you are just as replaceable as the others!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:31): He uses this opportunity to leap forward - slashing his sword across the damaged ScarleTiger and whomever else is in the way!
cubey@aol.pl (17:21:37): React
VJockey (17:22:01): #Ken and Sister
cubey@aol.pl (17:22:07): Approved
tengusaur (17:22:09): Roger: "You're sick, boy. Nobody's lives matter to you but your own!"
VJockey (17:22:33): "You.... you used them. You used my FAMILY!!"
griefgathering (17:23:00): Purple Heart: "This goes beyond despicable..."
VJockey (17:23:37): *Yeah this just got Peola downright furious as she tears across the ground, letting ki rush freely through her Machina and sword as she swings the now violently arcing blade at Phannuhel's blade to parry it away!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:28): The two swords clash against each other and...
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:33): The strain was too much.
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:42): Peola's blade shatters into fragments!
cubey@aol.pl (17:25:50): The sword slash cuts into Regalis Filia, damaging it deeply.
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:15): Phannuhel: "Peola? You have done an extremely stupid thing."
VJockey (17:26:25): "Kh!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:27): Ourania: "Phannu... hel..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:26:55): Phannuhel: "I am done with you. And you, your sword broken. Do you think you have any chances to win?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:13): Phanuhel: "To put it lightly, I have my doubts..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:47): Peola, Jen, Ken - go!
cubey@aol.pl (17:27:54): Only one enemy remains, the Regalis Eques.
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:00): Even if a lot of you are damaged now...
cubey@aol.pl (17:28:05): Very seriously, too.
VJockey (17:28:44): "I don't need my sword to beat trash like you..."
VJockey (17:29:22): [As if something switched on in her mind Peola closed her eyes as Regalis Filia dropped the ruined blade.]
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:42): The cloud left behind by the Rockdog barrage is starting to dissipate only now...
cubey@aol.pl (17:29:57): Leaving nothing but destroyed and downed units in the wake.
Peter Kampschroeder (17:30:24): *Jen doesn't bother to announce her attack. Instead of healing, Cethlenn's nanobots were focused on forming yet another weapon-in this case, tiny rocket-propelled spikes on the tips of those monowhips. There are eight now, but instead of swinging at Phannuel wildly, Jen guides them to stab into the ground around Cethlenn-and they then burst up near Regalis Eques, arcing over it and looping around its already-cut areas.+
Peter Kampschroeder (17:30:50): Jen: "Forgetting someone, aren't you?"
VJockey (17:30:58): "There are four pillars to the art of battle. Valor, Determination, Focus and Strength...When one is in disarray, the other cannot achieve their fullest potential..."
VJockey (17:32:04): "I will bring righteous victory, will carry on no matter the pain, I will fight forward with all of my might...."
Meraxa (17:32:15): Ken: You... still know nothing. *ScarleTiger shakes a little, but it stands* We've beaten worse with worse... *And then it runs. As it comes to the alien machine, it leaps, pointing its blazing mouth downward-* FACE FLAME! *To unleash a waterfall of fire upon it as he passes!+
VJockey (17:32:16): "And I am absolutely focused... on handing you your own backside!!!"
VJockey (17:32:31): ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjkqP0P5mWw )
VJockey (17:35:11): *The Regalis Filia once again bursts brightly with ki. Seams and sections of armor shining brightly as energy flowed through them and its scarf lit up as if it was woven from light itself. The machina takes three sedate steps forward before it breaks into a blazing sprint, cocking back a fist that burst into flames and seeking to land a one-two punch before following it up with a third which all but detonated upon impact!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:18): Phannuhel: "Strong words... however!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:36:48): He lunges forward, trying to stab with a penetrating thrust - but suddenly he is forced into defense, the shield raised to block another flamethrower-like attack!
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:19): Then, while he defends, more wires cut into damaged regions of Regalis Eques... and then comes the punch!
cubey@aol.pl (17:37:33): "H... how! Unarmed like a peasant, and yet...!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:01): The shield is thrown into the air, and lands a distance away - away from the prone Regalis Eques, its chestplate cracked.
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:06): Still, it tries to lift itself back up.
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:22): Phannuhel: "No... this is not how it was supposed to go!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:38:30): (Everyone who wants to can attack now)
VJockey (17:38:32): "I was alright with a sword... but I didn't have my brother's talent with it."
VJockey (17:38:49): "This is what I'm good with. What I was born with."
tengusaur (17:39:19): Roger: "No, it wasn't. Too many people have died for your sick ambition today, Phannuhel!"
griefgathering (17:39:40): Purple Heart: "That's what a villain of your level deserves."
VJockey (17:39:59): "Things don't ever go how they were supposed to. But in your case? We're making sure it goes as badly as possible!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:40:11): Phannuhel: "Villain? Do not make me laugh!"
Peter Kampschroeder (17:40:14): Jen: "You have no one to blame for this but yourself!"
frifreeman (17:40:53): Grace finishes reloading her guns and start to open fire toward Phannuel. "I'm genuinely curious, I can see your endgame at first, but after you start betraying anyone and trying to kill Peola, what was your end game at that point? Is it to kill everyone ever so nobody could remember what you did here? I both peopla and her sister died, what then?"
frifreeman (17:40:55): +
tengusaur (17:42:25): * Big O moves in, punching Regalis Eques a few times, and then grabbing it with an empty hand while charging energy in the piston of the other arm, getting ready for strike.
tengusaur (17:43:12): Roger: "Let's see how you like this "peasant's weapon". Sudden Impact!" And Big O launches a piston pressure enhanced punch right at the enemy machine's face! =
tengusaur (17:43:13): +
griefgathering (17:43:19): Purple Heart: "Well, this is the first time I''ll be using this since I've been here...but this may just be a good enough situation."
griefgathering (17:44:14): Purple Heart: *"EXE Charge, release." Her body is suddenly surrounded in a violet aura as she raises her sword, and disappears...!
griefgathering (17:44:25): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuJ2hWz8o18
griefgathering (17:45:17): *Phannuhel's machine will find itself held in place, or hopefully so, by a purple bubble of energy. One that Purple Heart strikes numerous times over and over!
griefgathering (17:46:21): Purple Heart: *"Take this - Neptune Break!!" The final strike comes from above to attempt to deliver a heavy blow on the target!+
Peter Kampschroeder (17:47:35): *Jen...takes out her pistol, and fires a single shot right between Regias Equus's eyes.+
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:06): Bullets rain down on the Eques, damaging its form and visibly penetrating the armor.
cubey@aol.pl (17:49:52): Its raise is stopped by the immoibilizing bubble of energy. It is striken many times, sword slashes through Purple Heart's attack - allowing Big O to grab it, a Sudden Impact throwing the whole unit away!
VJockey (17:52:02): *As Phannuhel was all but blasted around by each and every attack, Peola readies herself - channeling a truly massive amount of energy into her fist. Just when Phannuhel would think it over, Peola would charge forward and smash slam her Machina's fist into the Eques' midsection - had it remained on its steed it would all have unhorse it as sure as a lance would at a joust. She would keep running, letting the energy build higher and higher to the point it began to whip out from the opposite end of the target.
VJockey (17:52:13): "We're done here. Get off this planet and out of our lives."
VJockey (17:52:22): "NOVA! MAGNUM!"
VJockey (17:52:49): She pushes the fist forward and lets a maelstrom of energy loose, pointing it and Phannuhel to the sky!+
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:12): Phannuhel: "PEOLAAAAAA!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:53:27): Carried by the force of the impact, and then the explosion, his unit is thrown into the sky.
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:03): This was too much - with its systems critical, Regalis Eques explodes mid air.
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:22): Salwah: "..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:27): Monika: "Is... is it?"
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:35): Ourania: "Phannu... hel..."
cubey@aol.pl (17:54:59): Suddenly, Eques' mount jumps up.
VJockey (17:54:59): "... Ourania..."
VJockey (17:55:06): "I'm sorry-"
VJockey (17:55:12): "!!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:55:18): Phannuhel: "No! This is not how it was supposed to be!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:55:27): Phannuhel: "I do not lose! How is that possible!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:56:10): The horse mecha flees, carrying something small on its back. The rider, that being Phannuhel, protests loudly until the two disappear, too far away to be chased.
cubey@aol.pl (17:56:28): At the same time, several of the downed units stand up...
cubey@aol.pl (17:56:32): Kliiment: "Now is my chance!"
cubey@aol.pl (17:56:46): And quickly flee as well, the Miles forming a wall to protect Kliiment with their lives.
tengusaur (17:56:56): Roger: "...Wait!"
griefgathering (17:57:04): Purple Heart: "Ah, they're...!"
VJockey (17:57:09): "Damnit!"
tengusaur (17:57:15): He wants to stop Kliment, but too slow. He's far away.
VJockey (17:57:20): "..."
Peter Kampschroeder (17:57:30): Jen: "GET BACK HERE YOU PIECE OF-"
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:29): Your enemies depart quickly, leaving you alone...
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:35): Except for Cennetig and the ex-harem that is.
cubey@aol.pl (17:58:47): As well as several NUNE units that survived the encounter and did not run.
cubey@aol.pl (17:59:02): They do not look like they want to fight. In fact, they do not look like they want to do anything. There is an aura of uncertainity.
frifreeman (17:59:39): Grace pose with her two guns and the tarp cloak blowing in the wind. "That, is why you don't mess with downtrodden citizen in front of Grace Wallach (www.gracefuldiscount.com)
griefgathering (18:00:05): Purple Heart: "That URL is really unnecessary there..."
VJockey (18:01:22): "... Its been a long day... and honestly I'm too tired to figure out what we do next here..."
tengusaur (18:01:29): Roger: "The NUNE pilots. Xun. Men who were just used by Phannuhel and Kliiment. And paid the price they should have."
griefgathering (18:02:16): Purple Heart: "Yes...I've spent all my resources for now as well."
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:32): One thing for sure - the fight here is over.
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:53): But something tells you there may be more to come than just this.
cubey@aol.pl (18:02:59): Hopefully the impression is an incorrect one.
cubey@aol.pl (18:03:03): MISSION COMPLETE
