His mind is awhirl after last night's encounter with Ari, and he still doesn't know about Justin.

Oh, Comanche...Justin? What about Justin? seems glad to find something to distract himself from his thoughts Reni (8:20 pm): Nnnooo! turn Comanche (8:21 pm): Queen's daughter told me. The Queen offered her to him to marry, and he uh, delinced Mar Owens (8:21 pm): Declined? muses That would explain why the queen was so upset... Comanche (8:22 pm): glancing over at Talon as she suits up Mar Owens (8:22 pm): (she might not be outside yet) Reni (8:22 pm): Daddy, no! Save yerself, I'm a gonner! Comanche (8:22 pm): (Oh, read it as her being outside since she is up :O) Talon (8:22 pm): she wasn't, but now she is, carrying her helmet Comanche (8:23 pm): Hey Talon.

Kirby of the stars (8:27 pm): Wakes up and yawns Talon (8:27 pm): Surprisingly, considering I'm not certain some of the things I ate were suited to a human digestive system. Comanche (8:28 pm): The beds werepretty comfy I think. Reni (8:28 pm): gets up and goes to the door, somewhat distracted by the dream Mar Owens (8:29 pm): nods Good to know you've got a hardy digestive system, then. stands up So, maybe you should tell Talon about this too, Comanche. About Justin. he's right to business Kirby of the stars (8:29 pm): Opens door and starts walking towards were the others are Mar Owens* (8:29 pm): Echidna servant: at Reni's door Is everything all right? Reni (8:29 pm): bedcover: STILL stuck to her quills, as she emerges from the room, HC following Reni (8:29 pm): (whhops) Instant Fox (8:30 pm): Steps out of his room, shutting the door behind him. Still looks like he's half sleep Reni (8:30 pm): (Meh...I think it'll still work) Kirby of the stars (8:30 pm): (re the roooms in one hall?) Talon (8:30 pm): Hrm? blinks and looks at Com Mar Owens (8:30 pm): (sure, they can be in one hallway of suites) Mar Owens (8:31 pm): Servant: probably said that in response to the bedcover still attached to Reni's quills Comanche (8:31 pm): Yes Reni (8:32 pm): Huh? Oh...uh...yeah...fine...pulls it off...wincing as it takes a few quills with it Comanche (8:32 pm): He rejected the Queen's offer to marry her daughter Reni (8:32 pm): <Sometimes being a hedgehog can be SOOOO annoying...> Mar Owens (8:32 pm): Servant: I can take that for you. Kirby of the stars (8:32 pm): (Ah okay) Is watching Reni and the tattered bedcover Morning Instant Crimson has entered at 8:32 pm Talon (8:33 pm): Ah... That would be a fairly significant insult, yes. Mar Owens (8:33 pm): (yowdy Crim) Mar Owens (8:33 pm): But...was that all there was to it? Talon (8:33 pm): (CRIMMY <3 ) Instant Fox (8:33 pm): Yawn Morning Instant Fox (8:33 pm): (Hiya) Crimson (8:33 pm): (Hola, brb) Comanche (8:33 pm): Unlikely, but that is all I recall her telling me Crimson has left at 8:33 pm Reni (8:34 pm): K....still distracted by the dream Reni (8:34 pm): (hey) Talon (8:34 pm): Probably not, but I don't think they will be willing to divulge more. Kirby of the stars (8:34 pm): (He left us) Reni (8:34 pm): <Vor....you will PAY.> Comanche (8:35 pm): Naturally. So, what is our next stop then on our little adventure? Sable has entered at 8:35 pm Instant Fox (8:36 pm): (wb) Kirby of the stars (8:36 pm): (Weba) Sable (8:39 pm): (Ta) Mar Owens (8:39 pm): Well, based on what I was able to gather, Justin was last headed further north... Sable (8:39 pm): Exits the room she was in sleepily ...-___-? Talon (8:40 pm): I assume we pick up his trail again. I have to wonder where he is heading, it seems obvious he has a goal in mind. Reni (8:41 pm): Yawns...her quills, as well as having been stuck in the bedcover, are heavily tousled Mar Owens (8:41 pm): Echidna servant: gets the bedcover off of Reni's quills, then turns...and gets it stuck onto Jenna's horns Mar Owens (8:41 pm): Echidna servant: Oh, I'm terribly sorry! Comanche (8:41 pm): I don't know... for what it's worth, he mentiioned he wouldn't accept because he was already comitted to someone else Reni (8:41 pm): it looks like she did NOT get a very good sleep AT ALL Talon (8:41 pm): Possibly Darlene. Sable (8:41 pm): ....-____-? Whafur? Talon (8:42 pm): Or possibly someone else. Reni (8:42 pm): (XD) Kirby of the stars (8:42 pm): Evenutally reaches Sable, Reni and the servent Good morning oo Comanche (8:42 pm): Who was Darlene? Talon (8:42 pm): (pokes Terg) Mar Owens (8:42 pm): frowns a little I doubt it's Darlene...I might be mistaken, but he looked rather uncomfortable with Darlene. Talon (8:42 pm): ... A dragoness. Mar Owens (8:42 pm): Darlene was a dragoness who became infatuated with Justin. Sable (8:42 pm): (Jenna, I just... used the wrong account. ^^; ) Mar Owens (8:43 pm): (lol) Mar Owens (8:43 pm): Morning, Kirby. Comanche (8:43 pm): Hmm, but if it wasn't a shared feeling I doubt he would have said Reni (8:43 pm): yaaaaaawns again Mar Owens (8:44 pm): Servant: gets the bedcover off of Jenna's horns with a little effort I'm terribly sorry...is there anything I can get you? Your wish is my command. Kirby of the stars (8:44 pm): Reni you don't look so good Kirby of the stars (8:44 pm): (Ah sorry then) Reni (8:45 pm): ...trying to stay awake Hmm? Mar Owens (8:45 pm): (oh whoops XD;; Mar didn't say Morning Kirby then) Sable (8:45 pm): ...-___-? Braaaaains?

Kirby of the stars (8:48 pm): I said you don't look to good? Bauks has left at 8:48 pm Kirby of the stars (8:48 pm): (Oops skip that second one) Kirby of the stars (8:48 pm): Sure and Brains gum? Oo Mar Owens (8:49 pm): Servant: ...um, we don't have that particular brand, but we do have some Forrest and Jungle's Fine Chewing Tree Gum. Reni (8:49 pm): (XD) Talon (8:49 pm): (XDXD) Sable (8:49 pm): Looks at Kirby. This early in the morning, one might mistake the little marshmallow for a wad of pink gum Braaaaains! Comanche (8:49 pm): (XD) Sable (8:50 pm): Shuffles at him Mar Owens (8:51 pm): We'll have to figure it out later...meanwhile, we might as well get started as soon as we can get the others together. Kirby of the stars (8:51 pm): Uh. .. Wait I'm Kirby! I'm not food! Talon (8:51 pm): and just because I can, a white-bodied Hero Chao with little pink dragon wings and a fluffy purple-feathered tail flutters past Jenna, Reni, the echidna servant, and Kirbs. Reni (8:52 pm): HC: notices the other chao happily Chao! Comanche (8:52 pm): Yeah, best start moving as soon as possible Talon (8:52 pm): Chao: ...

Comanche (8:54 pm): (has no Chao) Sable (8:54 pm): Nomming on Kirby's head, she blinks at the servant again Forrrestungle? Reni (8:54 pm): (or maybe it was a shiny purple...one of the two) Talon (8:54 pm): (I haven't played SA2 in forever, but I still loves me my Fuzzie.) Reni (8:54 pm): (Shiny I think) Talon (8:55 pm): (He was from the first egg that spawns in the garden, so he's just a normal Hero Chao. XD) Reni (8:55 pm): (I don't know who's my fav in SA2...probably Reni :P) Talon (8:56 pm): (I have all three gardens in SA2 full. @ @ XD) Talon (8:56 pm): (BUTANYWAY.) Mar Owens (8:56 pm): Servant: provides a leaf-wrapped packet of Forrest and Jungle's Fine Chewing Tree Gum! Guaranteed to put some hair on your chest! Surgeon General's Warning: This product does not actually put hair on your chest, or any other part of your body. Sable* (8:56 pm): Bruno: Apparently spend the night in the chao garden's pool, and seems in an unusuall good mood for the turtle, as he plods over to where Mar and the others are. Nodding stoicly Kirby of the stars (8:56 pm): Please stop eating my head -_- Reni (8:56 pm): (But in SA1...its a run-type I named Goofball XD) Mar Owens (8:56 pm): nods to Bruno in return Kirby of the stars (8:56 pm): Can't nod right no being nomed on Sable (8:57 pm): Lets go of Kirby and pops the gum in her mouth ....ahhhhh.

XD) Reni (8:59 pm): (heh) Talon (8:59 pm): (.... and some of my chao have bred on their own. XD) Reni (8:59 pm): (I've had to give up a few to the 'faraway forest') Reni (9:00 pm): (yeah, they do that...that's how I end up with too many in the first place XD) Talon (9:00 pm): (like, sitting in the garden, playing around, and then I hear the "HAVE AN EGG" chime and I'm like "... What?!") Reni (9:00 pm): (XD yeah) Instant Fox (9:00 pm): Walking over to where Kirby, Jenna, and Reni are at the moment, sweatdrop Morning Jenna, Reni. Reni (9:01 pm): (I try to notice when they get the flowers and move them to an empty spot and guard them till it goes away XD) Talon (9:01 pm): (... and oh the jokes about horny chao from years ago.

Figure -that- out.) Reni (9:03 pm): (heh) Talon (9:04 pm): (anyway shutting up in ooc.) Reni (9:04 pm): (I have one of those in SA2...white egg given dark fruit) Reni (9:05 pm): Reni: still somewhat groggy Reni (9:05 pm): (whoops...double-tagged) Talon (9:05 pm): You're looking less surly today, Bruno. kneels down Cally has left at 9:06 pm Cally has entered at 9:06 pm Mar Owens (9:06 pm): Servant: makes sure Jenna is well-stocked with that tree gum before heading off Cally has left at 9:07 pm Sable (9:07 pm): Bruno: Smiles to Tally, putting his claws behind his head Squirtle. ^.- Comanche (9:09 pm): laugh Talon (9:10 pm): chuckles a little, patting the turtle on the head Mar Owens (9:10 pm): Anyway...where are the others? Mar Owens (9:10 pm): Ari: also comes out of her room Good morning^^ Kirby of the stars (9:11 pm): Morning Ari Instant Fox (9:14 pm): Morning wave Sable (9:14 pm): Morning Ariky! Mar Owens (9:15 pm): Ari: So, where is everyone else? looks around - she seems to have gotten a decent night's sleep, she's in her human form right now Kirby of the stars (9:16 pm): I dunno oo Mar Owens (9:17 pm): ...we should see if the others are awake yet. Comanche (9:17 pm): I can't blame 'em if they are sleeping. @@%@ those beds are comfy... Instant Fox (9:18 pm): (brb) Mar Owens (9:20 pm): But the sooner we move, the better chance we'll get at catching up to Justin. He couldn't have been here that long ago, according to what's been said. Talon (9:21 pm): stands up, nodding Comanche (9:24 pm): Right, let's find them and move on Reni (9:25 pm): yawns again, then smacks herself upside the head a couple times Sable (9:26 pm): Nods Okay Mowerman. You ready to rock Bruno? The squirtle rolls his eyes, but without the vindictiveness today, maybe he was impressed yesterday, maybe he's just in a good mood, as he is returned Mar Owens (9:26 pm): okay let's just assume they all get together Comanche (9:27 pm): fair enough! Mar Owens (9:27 pm): All right...looks at everyone, though actually avoids looking at Ari Let's go, then. Northward, after Justin. They said he went through the Jamming Jungle... Talon (9:27 pm): (@ @) Reni (9:28 pm): O.o Talon (9:28 pm): (apparently SA2B has a louder soundtrack than MP2 @ @;;; nearly gave myself a heart attack when I turned on the sound system...) Reni (9:28 pm): not sure I like that name... Kirby of the stars (9:28 pm): Why do they call it the Jamming Jungle? Reni (9:28 pm): (heh) Comanche (9:30 pm): Sounds all musical. Talon (9:30 pm): (semilurkish.) Mar Owens (9:30 pm): Well, it's more likely because you'll be in a jam once you're in it. Sable (9:31 pm): Mmmmm... jam... Reni (9:31 pm): that's what I was afraid of AlloyRabbit (9:31 pm): (o.o) Mar Owens (9:32 pm): (oo) AlloyRabbit (9:32 pm): (i have compleeeetely lost track of this RP) Kirby of the stars (9:32 pm): Ah creative name -_- Mar Owens (9:32 pm): But, if that's the way we have to go, then that's the way we're going. AlloyRabbit (9:32 pm): (as there are so many characters and events now o_o) Kirby of the stars (9:32 pm): (Is the Boss a gaint monkey?) Mar Owens (9:32 pm): (you can always catch up reading logs :P) Mar Owens (9:32 pm): (...maybe @ Kirby) AlloyRabbit (9:32 pm): (i dont like reading logs, it bores me c.c;; ) AlloyRabbit (9:33 pm): (unless there's some important thing i'm looking for in one) Comanche (9:33 pm): (II thought of the Guilty Gear character @ Jam oo) AlloyRabbit (9:33 pm): (the boss is a giant jar of strawberry jelly) AlloyRabbit (9:33 pm): (that is ticked off at the world) AlloyRabbit (9:33 pm): (because it wants to be called jam) AlloyRabbit (9:33 pm): (but the world calls it jelly) Instant Fox (9:34 pm): (Kay, sorry) Reni (9:34 pm): (XDXD pfff) Comanche (9:34 pm): (XDXD) Mar Owens (9:36 pm): leads the way out as the echidnas come out to cheer them as they head out of Echidnapolis Reni (9:36 pm): HC: again sitting in Reni's quills Comanche (9:36 pm): Wow, they're really happy for what we did, aren't they? Kirby of the stars (9:36 pm): likes being cheered out Mar Owens (9:37 pm): Well, we did rescue about half of their population. Mar Owens (9:37 pm): I think that has to count for something. Comanche (9:40 pm): True I guess. so how long until we get to this Jungle of Jam of whatever? AlloyRabbit (9:40 pm): *(makes a city full of humans)* Mar Owens (9:40 pm): It shouldn't be that far. This whole place is a jungle, after all... AlloyRabbit (9:41 pm): *(calls it humanopolis)* Talon (9:41 pm): wonders if Com isn't used to being a hero... Reni (9:41 pm): (XDXD) AlloyRabbit (9:41 pm): (sooooo echidna folks) AlloyRabbit (9:41 pm): (we're headed for this jungle of jam or whatever) AlloyRabbit (9:42 pm): (aaaand since we saved half your rears) AlloyRabbit (9:42 pm): (any chance we could get your help?) AlloyRabbit (9:42 pm): (...........................) AlloyRabbit (9:42 pm): *(crickets)* Reni (9:42 pm): would have been reluctant to leave a place where she's definitely got hero-status...if she wasn't still groggy AlloyRabbit* (9:42 pm): (echidna off in the background: hey we gave you some great food, isnt that enough?!) Instant Fox (9:42 pm): (XD) Reni (9:42 pm): * Comanche has left at 9:42 pm Reni (9:42 pm): (XD) Comanche has entered at 9:43 pm Rapidfire has entered at 9:43 pm Instant Fox (9:43 pm): (Weba and hiya) Rapidfire (9:43 pm): (Cheers.) Talon (9:44 pm): (hey Rappy) Mar Owens (9:44 pm): they eventually get out of the city and into the jungle...and deeper into the jungle...it's starting to get hard to move, just on the basis of the high grass, thick brush, and low-hanging vines Reni (9:44 pm): (brb0 Comanche (9:45 pm): is using his KA-BAR when possible to cut some vines away from in front of his face Talon (9:45 pm): The huntress is equipped! With scanners and a knife that can become a machete. Mar Owens (9:46 pm): Ari: is again staying close to Mar, although she's also trying not to look at him...though she does sneak a glance now and then as she pushes through the brush Mew has entered at 9:47 pm Mar Owens (9:47 pm): he's using the beamarang as a blade as well, to chop through foliage Mar Owens (9:47 pm): (yowdy! ^^) Mew (9:47 pm): (mew^^ ) Instant Fox (9:47 pm): (Hiya) Reni (9:47 pm): spin! @ vines Mar Owens (9:47 pm): but, problem: once someone slices through a certain vine, a whole bunch of ANTS come pouring out of it Mar Owens (9:48 pm): the vine looked a little redder than the others they were chopping...which makes sense since it is semi-translucent AND has ants going through it Kirby of the stars (9:48 pm): Oo@ Ants AlloyRabbit (9:48 pm): (o_o noez @ ants) AlloyRabbit (9:48 pm): (hi Ari o.o) Reni (9:48 pm): O.o;; Kirby of the stars (9:49 pm): ♫ Oh.. we're the ants who ruin your dinner.. we're always here to mess up any day. When we're around every camper gets thinner. Cuz if we get the chance we will taaake your food awaaaaay... ♪ Sable (9:49 pm): o.o! Reni (9:49 pm): (Reni: covered in ants...goes into shock from the stings and dies) Kirby of the stars (9:49 pm): (>> Sorry about that) Mar Owens (9:50 pm): (XDXD) Mew (9:50 pm): (XD@/ants ) Mar Owens (9:50 pm): okay, just for that, the ants are also humming Comanche (9:50 pm): (XDXD) Comanche (9:50 pm): Uh, these aren't fire ants are they? Mew (9:50 pm): (XDXD@humming ants) Mar Owens (9:50 pm): and now they're trying to crawl over the nearest person and start spitting on them Mew (9:50 pm): (also, because it has to be done@"jamming jungle"...) Mew (9:51 pm): (Painting Avariss (10:12 pm): Well, actually, I'm looking for a place called Jammin Jungle, but my map is broken Painting Avariss (10:12 pm): holds out a perfectly fine map of canada Painting Avariss (10:12 pm): >___< Carbunkle (10:15 pm): Hmm...takes the map and reads it I see no such place as this "Jungle of the Marmalade" that you speak of... Carbunkle (10:15 pm): And I know of no such place either. Carbunkle (10:16 pm): I am afraid I cannot help you, sir.) Sable (9:51 pm): AUGH! Flails at the ants Sable (9:51 pm): (XDXD Ari I love you* Talon (9:51 pm): She's scanning! And that's probably either her or Com since they've got... you know, the knives. Mew (9:51 pm): (XP...^^; ) Comanche (9:52 pm): Get off! not quite flailing, but trying to knock them off himself Reni (9:52 pm): o.O;; SHAKE! Reni (9:53 pm): to try and get the ants off Kirby of the stars (9:53 pm): Stomping Talon (9:53 pm): She is unperturbed by ant stings, but she is swatting ants! Talon (9:54 pm): ... and can has scan? Mar Owens (9:54 pm): Ants: they get knocked off with the combined efforts of everyone, though, they weren't stinging...they were spitting Reni (9:54 pm): HC: also being swarmed Chao! >.< Mar Owens (9:54 pm): Ants: scanned, they seem to be some kind of larger variety of...they aren't quite carpenter ants, but they have similar features, if larger and possessing a strange gland that lets them shoot a sticky compound that hardens in air Reni (9:55 pm): (Moves that line up one) Mar Owens (9:56 pm): Ants: and those spitting efforts have gummed up Comanche I guess, not entirely of course, they didn't have enough time for that Mar Owens (9:57 pm): Ants: but the vine is already being repaired by a bunch of ants making a bridge and gluing it back together - they are Woodglue Ants Mar Owens (9:57 pm): a distant relative of the Duct Tape Ant Comanche (9:57 pm): What the $%%!! guys, uhh, am I the only one who feels like I'm trying to move while covered in molasses Reni (9:57 pm): (XD) Reni (9:57 pm): (@ duct tape ant) Mar Owens (9:58 pm): in other words, he's studded with gummy spots Mew (9:58 pm): (XD@duct tape ant ) Sable (9:58 pm): o.o Pokes Commy freaky, guy. Kirby of the stars (9:59 pm): Picks up a leaf and tries to wipe off the goo Talon (10:00 pm): peers at the hardening goo with fascination Comanche (10:00 pm): I noticed... Mar Owens (10:00 pm): Goo: already rather hardened Reni (10:00 pm): Guh...I feel all sappy... Comanche (10:00 pm): not wiping it off or touching to avoid getting it on his fingers Mar Owens (10:01 pm): he tries to brush off some that got onto him as well - and sighs It dries really fast...but maybe we can wash it out. Nevertheless, no more chopping through vines if we can help it, or else these things will cover us. We're just lucky they don't seem to want to bite... Reni (10:01 pm): You know how HARD it is to get sap out of QUILLS?! >.< Mar Owens (10:01 pm): Ants: indeed, others of their kind can be seen gathering leaves from the trees and bringing them through the vines around the jungle Kirby of the stars (10:02 pm): (g2g night) Kirby of the stars has left at 10:02 pm Reni (10:03 pm): (awww...seeeya) Reni (10:03 pm): (late) Sable (10:03 pm): ...maybe we should get away from these superglueanties guy Cally has left at 10:03 pm Reni (10:04 pm): ...I second the notion Comanche (10:05 pm): (I think I shoudl go as well. night!) Mar Owens (10:05 pm): Ants: the ones that got all over them retreat to the trees Instant Fox (10:05 pm): (Night o.o) Reni (10:05 pm): (aww...seeya) Mew (10:05 pm): (rest well, and 'nite@Trans ) Talon (10:05 pm): Agreed. I will try to figure out a way to remove this later. Norux has left at 10:05 pm Reni (10:06 pm): So... Reni (10:06 pm): if we can't cut the vines... Norux has left at 10:06 pm Reni (10:06 pm): how the HECK are we gonna get THORUGH this place? Comanche has left at 10:06 pm Reni (10:06 pm): (through) Talon (10:07 pm): Move the vines, rather than cutting them? Reni (10:07 pm): I know I can't run in such tight quarters Mar Owens (10:07 pm): Or we can just duck under them... Mar Owens (10:08 pm): It will take more time, but it would lose us more time to keep getting attacked. Reni** (10:09 pm): easy for you to say...you don't have QUILLS...as she says this, she gets them stuck in the vines Sable (10:09 pm): I feel your pain, re-re. Untangling her head Reni (10:10 pm): (heh) Reni (10:10 pm): impatiently tries to RIP her head free of the vines Reni (10:10 pm): (That....came out wrong) Mary has left at 10:11 pm Mary has entered at 10:11 pm Talon (10:11 pm): Talon palms a frosty blue grenade and tosses it as the ants emerge Mar Owens (10:11 pm): (lol) Mary has left at 10:11 pm Reni (10:11 pm): (No, she's not trying to rip off her own head XD; Instant Fox (10:11 pm): (The Mary trap didn't work D: ) Mar Owens (10:11 pm): Ants: frozen! They don't seem to like that Mar Owens (10:13 pm): Ants: and the entrance is frozen over too, so the two ends are still stuck together - nice timing Mar Owens (10:14 pm): Okay, let's try to keep our heads down...literally. Bauks has entered at 10:14 pm Bauks has left at 10:14 pm Reni (10:15 pm): easier said than done >.>; Mar Owens (10:17 pm): they continue on, more slowly - the ants seem to have made this area their overall domain, and there are lots of the reddish tube vines around AlloyRabbit (10:18 pm): (o.x aaaants) Sable (10:19 pm): (brb) Reni (10:19 pm): ....sweatdrop Reni (10:20 pm): mutters under her breath Slow goes against my nature... Talon (10:20 pm): Hrm... Reni (10:20 pm): (yes, she got that line directly from Daddy XD) Reni (10:21 pm): (I forget where and which series he said it in, though) Rapidfire has left at 10:21 pm Bauks has left at 10:23 pm Mar Owens (10:25 pm): continuing through the jungle, they manage to make their way through several areas infested with the Woodglue Ants...but then Mar stops at the edge of a clearing that looks like the fastest way to go, and frowns Mar Owens (10:25 pm): the clearing has a slight incline that leads to the middle of it, and is nearly fully circular Mar Owens (10:26 pm): there is also something sitting on the ground in the very middle of it - it's one of the message boxes that Justin left behind! Reni (10:26 pm): Ohgoodwe'reintheclearnow...stops AlloyRabbit (10:27 pm): (augh) AlloyRabbit (10:27 pm): (i was going to upload some stuff on DA a few hours ago) AlloyRabbit (10:27 pm): (but i totally forgot) AlloyRabbit (10:27 pm): (T_T) AlloyRabbit (10:27 pm): *(does so)* Reni (10:28 pm): (hmmm...I need better music than radio) Talon (10:28 pm): That was easy enough. Instant Fox (10:29 pm): Phew steps out into the clearing Reni (10:30 pm): (ok...music...GO!) Mar Owens (10:31 pm): and the grass under Instant's foot? Reni (10:31 pm): (Reni: races out into the clearing...gets pwned by something x.x) Mar Owens* (10:31 pm): pfoow Mar Owens (10:31 pm): totally makes that noise as his foot sinks into the sandy muck directly under it Mar Owens (10:32 pm): and two very large pincers appear in the middle of what is now obviously a sandy bog Instant Fox (10:32 pm): Wha-HEY! Panics Reni (10:32 pm): sweatdrop Mar Owens (10:32 pm): and the sand is being drawn toward those pincers Mar Owens (10:32 pm): so unless Instant gets help fast, he'll be eaten! Sable (10:32 pm): (Back) Instant Fox (10:32 pm): (Weba) Mar Owens (10:32 pm): also, there are not any of those ant vines near this clearing Reni (10:33 pm): (I figured it was something like that...@ giant antlion) Talon (10:33 pm): Here comes that energy rope, snagging onto Instant and pulling taut! Talon (10:33 pm): The huntress has stuff handy. Sable (10:34 pm): Iffy! Watch out! Reni (10:34 pm): ...<Wow...glad I didn't race out there....> Mar Owens (10:34 pm): Talon, need help? Mar Owens (10:35 pm): he grabs onto her arm anyway to help steady her Instant Fox (10:35 pm): (XD @ Jenna) Mar Owens (10:35 pm): Instant's foot is still stuck in the muck, and actually his panicking got him knee-deep in the stuff Reni (10:35 pm): also goes to help...in whatever way possible8 Talon* (10:36 pm): just nods as she braces and pulls Norux has left at 10:38 pm AlloyRabbit (10:40 pm): ( http://alloyrabbit.deviantart.com/art/Truffle-s-fan-service-123967203 ) Mar Owens (10:40 pm): (XDXDXD) Instant Fox (10:40 pm): Grabs onto the rope and does his best to pull himself back towards the others Talon (10:40 pm): (XD!) AlloyRabbit (10:40 pm): (^^) Reni (10:40 pm): (piccy no worky) Instant Fox (10:41 pm): (Yeah I just get broken image box) Mar Owens (10:41 pm): (click on the pic) Sable (10:41 pm): (Heh, nice) Mar Owens (10:41 pm): (or the broken box) Reni (10:41 pm): (Oh...XD) Mew (10:42 pm): (XD@pic ) Reni (10:42 pm): (I clicked the full view link) Instant Fox (10:42 pm): (Nice XD) Mar Owens (10:43 pm): (well oo I think we'll have to stop at this cliffhanger) Reni (10:44 pm): (awww...)

Mar Owens (11:13 pm): so the group is struggling to keep Instant from becoming a giant antlion's lunch! Mar Owens (11:13 pm): meanwhile, the message box is still sitting in the middle of the sandy, boggy pit...though it bounces up and down a bit on the loose surface Jenna (11:13 pm): Struggling to keep Instant from becoming a giant antlion's lunch! Comanche (11:14 pm): helping to keep Instant from being a giant antlion's lunch Instant Fox (11:15 pm): Trying not to become a giant antlion's lunch Jenna (11:15 pm): Mmmm lunch! Talon (11:16 pm): pulling with her entire strength to keep Instant from becoming a giant antlion's lunch. Kirby of the stars (11:16 pm): Try to- you get the idea Comanche (11:16 pm): also pulling; he's certainly strong and doing his best Talon (11:16 pm): This strength may end up become phase-shift enhanced if they don't get him out. Mar Owens (11:17 pm): and POP! Instant is kept from being made into an antlion's lunch as his feet pop out of the bog Comanche (11:19 pm): You alright Comanche (11:20 pm): (alright?)

Thanks guys VioletWhirlwind (11:23 pm): (turns on the radio to try and drown it out) Jenna (11:23 pm): You okay Iffy? Jenna (11:23 pm): The floor was trying to eat you! Mar Owens (11:23 pm): the very large pincers are still sticking out of the sand...they kinda chew together, dangerously close to the message box VioletWhirlwind (11:24 pm): (and my soda is frozen...O.o) Comanche (11:24 pm): (Our fridge out in the garage used to do that) VioletWhirlwind (11:24 pm): (sorta) Comanche (11:24 pm): Should she we shoot the thing? VioletWhirlwind (11:24 pm): (this is one I got from the store XD) Comanche (11:24 pm): (It could be an adventure when it did it to a soda in a can) VioletWhirlwind (11:25 pm): (XD oh boy) Instant Fox (11:25 pm): Gets up, nodding to Jenna Thanks to you all VioletWhirlwind (11:25 pm): (anyway...) Talon (11:26 pm): how big is the message box, Terg? VioletWhirlwind (11:26 pm): (Oh! Another thing...I realized...I had an impalla char myself at one point...) Mar Owens (11:26 pm): it's smaller than a breadbox VioletWhirlwind (11:26 pm): (and I think I named her Jessie XD) Jenna (11:26 pm): (=D) Truffle (11:26 pm): (but Jenna ate her o.o) Truffle (11:27 pm): (also, unafk) Truffle (11:27 pm): (did you get a chance to color that picture by the way?) Mar Owens (11:27 pm): specifically, it's more like the dimensions of maybe a smallish Tupperware box VioletWhirlwind (11:28 pm): (she was actually an NPC that became one of my actual characters XD) Jenna (11:28 pm): (Not yet, I'm on 9-hour shifts atm @_@) Talon (11:28 pm): I believe my grapple will reach the box... I may be able to grab it without us engaging the insect. Comanche (11:28 pm): Give it a shot then, just hurry, before that thing destroys it... Mar Owens (11:28 pm): Antlion: omnomnom VioletWhirlwind (11:28 pm): (anyway back to RP...) VioletWhirlwind (11:29 pm): How in the world did an antlion get that BIG?! O.o Mar Owens (11:29 pm): Antlion: apparently irritated by the recent activity, it continues that chewing motion, which causes the sand to shift... Mar Owens (11:29 pm): and whoops, the monster just SWALLOWED IT WHOLE Jenna (11:30 pm): o.o; ... Well, oops. Comanche (11:30 pm): ...well, there goes using your grapple to get it VioletWhirlwind (11:31 pm): o.o;; VioletWhirlwind (11:31 pm): ...NOW what do we do? Mar Owens (11:32 pm): This makes things...complicated. Truffle (11:32 pm): (give up) Mar Owens (11:32 pm): Well, not that complicated, actually... Comanche (11:32 pm): I suggest we kill the thign and gut it before it digests the box Truffle (11:32 pm): (and go rent a different game) Truffle (11:32 pm): (o.o) Talon (11:32 pm): ... VioletWhirlwind (11:32 pm): (XD) Talon (11:32 pm): Agreed. Comanche (11:32 pm): (thing) Truffle* (11:32 pm): (alternatively, load your last save) Truffle (11:32 pm): (....except you didnt save in a while) Truffle (11:32 pm): (which meannnns you're back at when you met Jenna =/) VioletWhirlwind (11:33 pm): (XD) Instant Fox (11:33 pm): (Why don't we ever save D: ) Jenna (11:33 pm): (This thing needs an autosave feature!) Truffle (11:33 pm): (you have been spoiled by newfangled autosaving witchcraft) Truffle (11:33 pm): (...XD) VioletWhirlwind (11:33 pm): (XD) Comanche (11:34 pm): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (11:34 pm): (Gotta check DC dragons...lurk for a minute) Mar Owens (11:34 pm): Talon, think you could give it some indigestion with a grenade? what a simple solution! Talon (11:35 pm): ... I would rather not risk damaging the message box, but perhaps a concussive or several would do the job. Talon (11:36 pm): Which she proceeds to palm! Comanche (11:36 pm): Do we have something to poison it? Mar Owens (11:36 pm): Hmm...we might have to risk it, we can't just leave it in there... Mar Owens (11:36 pm): Antlion: those pincers are still up, twitching...they angle sliiiightly toward the group... Jenna (11:36 pm): Maybe we could make it throw up guy! Jenna (11:36 pm): This is a jungle, theres gotta be something icky. VioletWhirlwind (11:37 pm): (back) Kirby of the stars (11:37 pm): Like? VioletWhirlwind (11:37 pm): ...It can't get us if we don't step in it's tunnel, right? VioletWhirlwind (11:38 pm): (funnel, I mean) Instant Fox (11:39 pm): (Weba) Talon** (11:39 pm): ... I don't imagine it would like the glue. Tosses the first grenade, aiming for that hungry mouth, gripping one of the disc-shaped generators firmly with her free hand Jenna (11:39 pm): I dunno. Slimy mushrooms or swamp juice or that ant glue or somthing. I don't have to come up with everything. Folds arms Mar Owens (11:40 pm): Antlion: when the grenade starts rolling toward its mouth...it sinks into the sand, sucked under VioletWhirlwind (11:40 pm): and once we get the box...how do we get PAST that thing? Mar Owens (11:40 pm): We can go around it if it comes to that. Talon (11:41 pm): and once the grenade is eaten, it goes off with a shockwave of force. Kirby of the stars (11:41 pm): That seems like the best action Mar Owens (11:42 pm): Antlion: and OHMYGOSH Mar Owens (11:42 pm): Antlion: ...nope, no antlion bits everywhere, but the pincers are shuddering and so is the sand with the shockwave Comanche (11:43 pm): Did that kill it? Mar Owens (11:44 pm): Antlion: then it rises up out of the sand, enraged - and reveals itself to be a gigantic centipede-like creature, segmented almost like a snake in serpentine mobility, clacking its pincers angrily as it peers at them with beady eyes - and then it launches forward, keeping some length of its body still in the sand, but darting out with those killer mandibles! VioletWhirlwind (11:44 pm): ....Oh....snap. Jenna (11:44 pm): ...I think you made it mad, Tally. Way to go. Kirby of the stars (11:45 pm): That's an understament oo dodges Instant Fox (11:45 pm): Guess that answers your question, Reni Mar Owens (11:45 pm): Antlion: has a nice big juicy power crystal in its forehead, as well as in each segment running down its back Mar Owens (11:45 pm): he grabs Ari and gets them both out of the way It's a power crystal creature! VioletWhirlwind (11:46 pm): Ah...that would explain things then Comanche (11:46 pm): leap out of the way, draws his gun, and quickly fires a shot at the crystal on it's head ~This better not take more than 10 shots or I'm SOL...~ VioletWhirlwind (11:47 pm): dodging pincer swipes Mar Owens (11:47 pm): doink - that is the sound of that bullet as it, being a disruptor of Talon's IIRC, rebounds off an energy field generated by the crystal Mar Owens (11:48 pm): Antlionpede: swiping its pincers, trying for stabs or decapitation - it doesn't seem to care much which VioletWhirlwind (11:48 pm): (boss battle...GO!) VioletWhirlwind (11:49 pm): (I need better music) Comanche (11:49 pm): Well, that didn't quite work well... yes it is one of her disruptors Mar Owens (11:49 pm): Antlionpede: though, after a bit of looking at it, if they can keep looking at it long enough, they can see the forehead crystal is already cracked Jenna (11:49 pm): Duck and run! Ahhhhh that's a big bug! Kirby of the stars (11:49 pm): Big bug's can be squashed! Kirby of the stars (11:49 pm): bugs VioletWhirlwind* (11:50 pm): Hmmm... Talon (11:50 pm): (hasdfhrt I need to pay attention.) VioletWhirlwind (11:50 pm): I'm not much use in ranged fights Comanche (11:51 pm): Can any of you tell if that crystal on it's head may actually be cracked? Talon (11:52 pm): Checking - but I don't believe so! scanscan, palming a frost grenade Kirby of the stars (11:52 pm): Looks like it VioletWhirlwind (11:53 pm): But if someone could incapacitate it for a bit, i might be able to spin at those crystals and crack them more... VioletWhirlwind (11:53 pm): thinking out loud Mar Owens (11:54 pm): We've got to get the message box out of that thing. It may tell us where Justin is headed next! throws his beamarang, aiming to slice off its mandibles Mar Owens (11:54 pm): Antlionpede: it twists and dodges the beamarang, meanwhile it tears up the ground as it stabs the ground with its mandibles and goes in a full circle, throwing dirt and plants into the air with the sheer force of the razing Kirby of the stars (11:55 pm): Wow oo Jenna (11:55 pm): Whirls her yoyo up to speed and hurls, trying to wrap up those mandibles Go away big bug >.< Talon (11:58 pm): Tosses that grenade as she leaps back, aimed for the mandibles Mar Owens (11:58 pm): Antlionpede: raises its mandibles from the dirt, screeching horrifically, but then its mandibles get wrapped by the yo-yo! It yanks at the hold on them, definitely not happy about it... Mar Owens (11:59 pm): Antlionpede: then gets hit by the frost grenade as well, the pincers frosting over nearly all the way to its head Jenna (11:59 pm): Tugged off her feet! Ahh! VioletWhirlwind (12:00 am): Now's my chance! jumps from one leg of the bug to the next...headed for that crystal...and SPINS at it Mar Owens (12:00 am): Antlionpede: shake-shake, shake-shake! Mar Owens (12:01 am): Antlionpede: and gets hit in the forehead crystal by Reni...you might wanna change your alt there...but anyway, it gets hit by her spinning quills, and the crack widens VioletWhirlwind (12:01 am): (thinking of something you might actually see as a boss battle here XD ) VioletWhirlwind (12:01 am): (oh...whoops! XD Didn't even notice! Hold on...) VioletWhirlwind has left at 12:02 am VioletWhirlwind has entered at 12:02 am Jenna (12:02 am): Swung back and forth by the shaking AHHHH! >.< Instant Fox (12:02 am): Dashes in after Reni and jumps, slashing at the crystal Instant Fox (12:02 am): (Weba) VioletWhirlwind (12:02 am): (thanks) Mar Owens (12:03 am): Antlionpede: and the crystal cracks even further...and starts to glow VioletWhirlwind (12:03 am): Inexplicably launched upwards...landing back at the start Talon (12:04 am): Jenna! and she tosses something else, which sticks to Jenna, before popping up and around the impala - an energy shield. This is followed by a bright orange grenade for the frozen mandibles which explodes with plasma fire Jenna (12:05 am): (LOL @ Reni) VioletWhirlwind (12:05 am): (XP) Comanche (12:05 am): not firing, for fear of missing due to it's thrashing and hitting a friend by accident VioletWhirlwind (12:06 am): repeat! Mar Owens (12:06 am): Antlionpede: and the pincers go on fire, before melting off - and the crystal in its head, the two segments of it, are glowing more violently with flame as the entire thing catches on fire VioletWhirlwind (12:06 am): (7 more times :P) Jenna (12:06 am): Drops to the floor, rubbing her tail Kirby of the stars (12:07 am): Inhales some of the flames, Fire Kirby Mar Owens (12:07 am): (lol @ 7 more times) VioletWhirlwind (12:08 am): (XP) Mar Owens (12:08 am): Antlionpede: the other crystals in its body are resonating with the one in its head... Mar Owens (12:09 am): throws his beamarang again, this time at the creature's middle - and bingo, direct hit! The creature is sliced in half, and even though it's a bit caked in bug guts, the box can be seen falling out of it! Mar Owens (12:09 am): Ari: and she catches the box with her psi powers by creating a shield around it - but she can only hold it in place Comanche (12:09 am): Talon, your grapple beam, quickly! Talon (12:10 am): and the grapple flashes out and snatches at the box! Talon (12:10 am): (lol grapple beam) VioletWhirlwind (12:10 am): (Iblis, phase 2) Mar Owens (12:10 am): Antlionpede: and just as the box is safely away, BOOM! Mar Owens (12:10 am): Antlionpede: boomboomboomboomlet Mar Owens (12:10 am): Antlionpede: each segment detonates, sending bug guts everywhere VioletWhirlwind (12:10 am): (XD @ boomlet) Instant Fox (12:11 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:11 am): lands back at the start again...and gets plastered in bug-guts) VioletWhirlwind* (12:11 am): ** * VioletWhirlwind (12:11 am): (not paren) Kirby of the stars (12:12 am): gutted -_- Comanche (12:12 am): also covered in bug stuff ....ick. brushes it off (And XP @ grapple beam) Instant Fox (12:12 am): Splat, covered in bugjuice VioletWhirlwind (12:12 am): ...--_-- Yuck VioletWhirlwind (12:12 am): shake! Instant Fox (12:12 am): First spit, now this trying to wipe it off Comanche (12:13 am): (Hail D: My poor car, I just washed it D: ) Comanche (12:13 am): (And did a detail job too) VioletWhirlwind (12:13 am): ( D: ) Mar Owens (12:13 am): (aww) Talon (12:13 am): Splatted with bug guts, but seems fairly impassive as she catches the box Mar Owens (12:14 am): (you shouldn't have washed it! XP) Mar Owens (12:14 am): protected Ari from being splatted with his own body, at least mostly VioletWhirlwind (12:14 am): (heh. Unwritten rule....once you wash your car...it storms) Mar Owens (12:14 am): the green bug guts/juice is rather...sticky, and it glows a little Comanche (12:14 am): (Yeah, plus I was gonna fix a pretty deep ding that is causing some rust problems by my one wheel via some bondo and touch up paint, but alas that will need to wait now ;; ) VioletWhirlwind (12:15 am): Great...--__-- covered in sap AND sticky radioactive bug-guts... Comanche (12:16 am): I could spend an hour washign and still not get this crap off... Kirby of the stars (12:16 am): Shake goo off getting it everywhere VioletWhirlwind (12:16 am): ...I sure as HECK hope the paperatzi doesn't show up right now... Kirby of the stars (12:17 am): (Sudden camera flash as Reni said that) VioletWhirlwind (12:17 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:17 am): (Reni: It would figure...with my luck) Kirby of the stars (12:18 am): (Tachi: I'm an Ace photographer! climbs back into trees) Talon (12:18 am): ... is the bugjuice radioactive? XD VioletWhirlwind (12:18 am): (XD) Comanche (12:18 am): (XD) Jenna (12:18 am): (Augh, phased out a little there XD) Talon (12:18 am): or just crystal-empowered? XD Kirby of the stars (12:18 am): It'sa powered by the white diamond force Jenna (12:19 am): ...ewwww... Dripping with bugjuice Can we go back to the echidna guys for a bath? Mar Owens (12:19 am): the bug juice is just glowing from residual power crystal energy release VioletWhirlwind (12:19 am): (reni was just saying that because it was glowy...I don't think she knows if it's really radioactive or not) Mar Owens (12:19 am): (and XDXD @ Kirby implementing Tachi) Talon (12:19 am): It's not radioactive. Kirby of the stars (12:19 am): (Thank you =3) Kirby of the stars (12:20 am): It put out my flame -_- Mar Owens (12:20 am): stands We might find a place along the way to wash this off, but if it isn't directly harmful, we should press on. But first, that box... VioletWhirlwind (12:22 am): (box: fizzle, pop, static...no message) VioletWhirlwind (12:22 am): (Reni: Oh yeah...THAT was WORTH it sarcasm) Comanche (12:23 am): (XD) Truffle (12:23 am): (box: literally -was- a tupperware box, containing something that you can only pray used to be food, probably belonging to a camper that passed through here some time ago) VioletWhirlwind (12:23 am): (XDXD) Instant Fox (12:24 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (12:24 am): (XD) Instant Fox (12:24 am): Takes the box from Talon and opens it Kirby of the stars (12:25 am): (Box: Has 50 rupees inside) Instant Fox (12:26 am): (Holds them up in the air for no good reason ) Jenna (12:26 am): Makes a da-na-na-na sound as Iffy does that Comanche (12:27 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (12:27 am): (XD) Mar Owens (12:27 am): and a little drone pops out of the box...and actually, IT makes that sound too! Mar Owens (12:27 am): Drone: da-na-na-na! VioletWhirlwind (12:27 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:28 am): O_o Instant Fox (12:28 am): Blinks VioletWhirlwind (12:28 am): (Reni: AAAAH Robot! Destroy it!)

Jenna (12:35 am): (=D) Mar Owens (12:35 am): (sorry, hold on here) VioletWhirlwind (12:36 am): My sentiments exactly. <.< Mar Owens (12:36 am): (screws on a fast forward button) Kirby of the stars (12:36 am): Doesn't mind waiting oo Mar Owens (12:36 am): Justin: Ah, there we go...hey, don't touch that! the entire screen flips onto its side as something making cute noises and having soft, rounded, nubby arms pushes the box over Mar Owens (12:37 am): Justin: after a bit of chasing after a Chao in range of the screen, which is now on its side, he finally catches it and sets the camera back upright Phew...okay, um, where to start here... VioletWhirlwind (12:37 am): (XD I bet I know...0 VioletWhirlwind (12:37 am): (Whoops was a bit slow with that OOC comment) Kirby of the stars (12:39 am): Um Justin has chao? VioletWhirlwind (12:39 am): HC: is sleeping in Reni's quills Instant Fox (12:40 am): I guess he picked it up in Echidnaopolis. I didn't see it before. VioletWhirlwind (12:40 am): HC: How it does that without getting poked, is a mystery* Mar Owens (12:41 am): Justin: I kinda got kicked out of Echidnapolis...long story, but to make it short, I, uh, refused having an arranged marriage with the queen's daughter. Besides any personal reasons I might have had, the fact is, I can't stay here even if I wanted to. I'm still trying to explore this world and I can't do that sitting around doing royal...stuff. Besides, being the only man in there was starting to make me nervous, and their men aren't yet rescued, so they were getting reaaaally lonely... VioletWhirlwind (12:41 am): (puts a at the start of that) Jenna* (12:41 am): Snrrks at that VioletWhirlwind (12:41 am): (heh at that) Kirby of the stars (12:41 am): chuckles at that last par Comanche (12:42 am): ~Most men would love to be in that position~ VioletWhirlwind (12:42 am): nodding about the "sitting around doing royal stuff" bit Mar Owens (12:43 am): Justin: Now, don't get me wrong, they were pretty and stuff...just, I have other commitments I'm not ready to give up yet. But that's getting into the personal stuff, and I'm sure intrepid explorers are more interested in all the discoveries I've been making about power crystals or these robots instead. Truffle (12:44 am): (Jenna: like, no way guy, i love this stuff! o_o tell me more!) VioletWhirlwind (12:44 am): (XD) Instant Fox (12:45 am): (XD) Jenna (12:45 am): (^^) Kirby of the stars (12:46 am): (Oh that Jenna of ours!) Talon (12:47 am): Watches, an eyebrow quirking in amusement Mar Owens (12:48 am): Justin: But...scratches the back of his head The echidnas back there rewarded me with a Chao egg as part of their ceremonies after I helped beat back a robot attack...and so my research has been a little stunted since it hatched. The tyke's growing fast, too, though it can be a handful...not sure if it's a boy or a girl, or even if they HAVE a gender, the darn things reproduce with flowers for cryin' out loud... VioletWhirlwind (12:49 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:49 am): heh Comanche (12:49 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (12:49 am): (Pollenate each other!) VioletWhirlwind (12:49 am): pats HC affectionately Kirby of the stars (12:49 am): (New term for intercourse!) VioletWhirlwind (12:49 am): HC: goes right on sleeping Comanche (12:49 am): So, wher eare you next is the question... just kinda talking to himself as he watches the video VioletWhirlwind (12:51 am): (Baaaad XD @ Kirby) Comanche (12:52 am): (XD) Instant Fox (12:52 am): (XD) Mar Owens (12:54 am): Justin: But anyway, I think I'll name him when he grows up a little more...see what he grows into. In the meantime, I, uh...well, through the Jamming Jungle, northward, that's pretty much where I'm headed. It seems like the robots are concentrated east of here, so if you pick up this message, try to avoid going that way. They've got some pretty mean - aww fudgenuggets! holds the Chao with one arm while he gets a large revolver pistol out, and fires it - and a camera bot falls to the ground with a whump nearby Kirby of the stars (12:54 am): Oo VioletWhirlwind (12:55 am): o.O;; Oh snap Comanche (12:55 am): Uh, well, not quite the ending I was expecting... VioletWhirlwind (12:55 am): (WHY am I using that saying so much lately? @ "Oh snap" ) VioletWhirlwind (12:55 am): (oh well) Mar Owens (12:55 am): Justin: Well, so much for keeping my location uncompromised...head north, and stay out of the bogs!...and don't cut any vines!...don't eat ANY of the little dangling fruit that look like-and the message cuts out VioletWhirlwind (12:56 am): o.O;;; VioletWhirlwind (12:56 am): Little dangling fruit that look like...WHAT? Talon (12:57 am): ... Hm. Instant Fox (12:58 am): ... Comanche (12:58 am): Let's just avoid all the little danglign fruit then.... Instant Fox (12:58 am): Yeah VioletWhirlwind (12:58 am): Heh...good idea Comanche (12:58 am): (dangling) Kirby of the stars* (12:58 am): >> throws a fruit he pciked earlier in the jungle Kirby of the stars (12:58 am): Shifty eyes Talon (12:58 am): ... I can probably determine what's safe and what isn't... Jenna (12:59 am): (Jenna: Looks like what? Eating dangling fruit) VioletWhirlwind (12:59 am): (XDXD) Kirby of the stars (12:59 am): (That's something I expected from Kirby) Kirby of the stars (12:59 am): (More funnier though) Comanche (12:59 am): Fair enough then Talon... so Mar, northward we go? VioletWhirlwind (12:59 am): (XDD) Instant Fox (1:00 am): (XD) Jenna (1:00 am): ...he couldn't have told us about the vines and bogs before my clothes got wrecked? Shakes the message bot VioletWhirlwind (1:01 am): Heh ironic liptwtich Mar Owens (1:01 am): Frankly, eating ANY fruit or vegetable we don't know about isn't a smart idea...but it looks like he might be slower due to that Chao, so maybe we can catch up to him after all. Mar Owens (1:02 am): Message bot: freaks back on And whatever you do, don't even THINK about stepping on-turn off Kirby of the stars (1:02 am): Yosh! Let's- blinks at last message VioletWhirlwind (1:02 am): o.O;;; Mew (1:02 am): (XD@message cuts ) VioletWhirlwind (1:02 am): (XD @ Yosh) Talon (1:03 am): ... Comanche (1:03 am): ...can we shoot that thing to shut it up? VioletWhirlwind (1:03 am): (XD) Jenna (1:04 am): Shakes it again Uselss guy! Mar Owens (1:04 am): Drone: retreats back to the box itself and shuts up - in all senses of the phrase Talon (1:04 am): ... Talon (1:04 am): did she just snicker Talon (1:04 am): I think she did. Comanche (1:05 am): ~So she is human...~ VioletWhirlwind (1:05 am): ...stepping on what? Instant Fox (1:05 am): Thanks for leaving out the important parts. Instant Fox (1:05 am): Pitches the box VioletWhirlwind (1:06 am): liptwitch again Inded VioletWhirlwind (1:06 am): (indeed) Mar Owens** (1:06 am): in a serious voice Don't step on anything, then. Mar Owens (1:06 am): It's the safest way. VioletWhirlwind (1:06 am): ...sweatdrop8 Mar Owens* (1:06 am): oh wait, when is he EVER not saying something seriously? VioletWhirlwind (1:07 am): How are we supposed to...not step on anything Talon (1:07 am): I'm afraid I can't fly. Comanche (1:08 am): snicker Mar Owens (1:08 am): Perhaps I should rephrase that...don't step on anything that we haven't stepped on before. Anything strange on the ground, don't touch it. Jenna (1:08 am): We could be spider man Kirby of the stars (1:08 am): I have to breathe once in a while when I float oo Comanche (1:08 am): (logging out this alt... night all!) Kirby of the stars (1:08 am): Ah okay Comanche has left at 1:08 am Jenna (1:08 am): Watch! Yoyo a branch and swing and miss the next one >.< VioletWhirlwind (1:08 am): (aww...seeya) VioletWhirlwind (1:09 am): (the curse! It strikes again!) Kirby of the stars (1:09 am): (Oh this is a bad time but) Kirby of the stars (1:09 am): (I passed my Ohio Graduation Test!) Jenna (1:09 am): (Congrats) VioletWhirlwind (1:10 am): (congrats) Kirby of the stars (1:10 am): (Next yar I'll be a Junior and thnks) Truffle (1:10 am): (o.o) Kirby of the stars (1:10 am): (year) Truffle* (1:10 am): (yay) Mew (1:10 am): (congrats!^^@Kirby ) Instant Fox (1:10 am): (Congrats) Cally has left at 1:11 am Mar Owens (1:11 am): (yay!) Mar Owens (1:12 am): Well, we have our direction...we just need to be a little careful. VioletWhirlwind (1:14 am): But...how do we even know we're still going north? Jungles can get confusing Mar Owens (1:15 am): holds up his light watch it's easy, we just follow my watch - it acts as a comp-the dial is spinning around VioletWhirlwind (1:15 am): sweatdrop Kirby of the stars (1:16 am): Must be a strong magnetic field near by. Jenna (1:16 am): o.o; Mar Owens (1:16 am): ...brings his arm close to a nearby tree, the compass homes in on it VioletWhirlwind (1:16 am): ...That can only mean one thing...Robots Jenna (1:16 am): Well I think north is that way! Points back to echidnopolis Mar Owens (1:16 am): then moves it to a nearby vine, and there we go Instant Fox (1:16 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (1:17 am): (XD) Mar Owens (1:17 am): Robots wouldn't produce enough of an...unless they were deliberately creating some kind of field, from that concentration he mentioned... VioletWhirlwind (1:17 am): ...that's what I meant Mar Owens (1:19 am): It might not even be on purpose...shakes his head Nevertheless, we can't just go back now, and staying here might run us into robot patrols, or other unsavory predators. VioletWhirlwind (1:19 am): which means...they either have something to hide, something to contain, or something to keep out...or all three VioletWhirlwind (1:19 am): that 'something to keep out' probably being us Jenna (1:19 am): Like more of those snakes? Eeps and moves closer to Iffy Instant Fox (1:21 am): Shudder ~She had to mention those~ VioletWhirlwind (1:21 am): Sigh but you're right....we can't stay here Talon (1:21 am): is it still daylight? VioletWhirlwind (1:23 am): (I'm thinking of the jungle part of MR in SA1...all those paths can get downright confusing) Mar Owens (1:23 am): yup, they only left in the early morning after all Mar Owens (1:23 am): and it's maybe late morning right now Mar Owens (1:23 am): but he's already trying to look up at the sky, setting up a stick in the dirt VioletWhirlwind (1:24 am): (Or at least they were when I first encountered them) Talon (1:25 am): North is that way. point. Assuming this planet has a normal axial tilt. Mar Owens (1:26 am): nods That corresponds with what I know. The planet's axis was tilted slightly after the explosions that created my future, but I've been trained to compensate for that in this timesphere. Mar Owens (1:26 am): That said, I'm still more comfortable using instruments that actually work...anyway. Let's keep going...and he starts heading north Jenna (1:28 am): follows Neat trick! VioletWhirlwind (1:28 am): shrugs, following I'm just saying...we could easily get turned around Talon (1:28 am): chuckles Mar Owens (1:30 am): takes his pack and grabs something in it So, anyone want a light lunch as we walk? I didn't see what the echidnas gave us, it was too dark to see before...and he pulls out a small giant bug...as in, it's the size of hmm, a softball, and it's all curled up and fried and ready to be eaten anytime! Kirby of the stars (1:31 am): Sweet fired bug! ^^ VioletWhirlwind (1:31 am): makes a face I didn't want to say it in the village...but I'm not partial to bugs VioletWhirlwind (1:32 am): especially after getting covered in the guts of a giant one Mar Owens (1:32 am): Why not? They're high in protein and other nutrients. And they're very available. Talon (1:32 am): It's food. Instant Fox (1:32 am): Sweatdrop N-no thanks... Mar Owens (1:32 am): starts crunching on it as he walks - guess his training included X-TREME WILDERNESS SURVIVAL Talon (1:32 am): removes her mask and holds her hand out for a fried bug. Jenna (1:33 am): Sticks her tounge out Bleh VioletWhirlwind (1:33 am): ...but...seeing as there's probably no pizza joints around here... Mar Owens (1:33 am): hands one out to Talon Kirby of the stars (1:33 am): I'll take some! VioletWhirlwind (1:33 am): I guess I'll take what I can get Talon (1:33 am): Hey. Marksmanship and fieldcraft make her a pretty decent hunter, as well as bounty hunter. Mar Owens (1:34 am): They're actually a little nutty, with a hint of ginger. Kirby of the stars (1:34 am): (By some he means takes the rest of Mar's food) Jenna (1:34 am): Is there no salad in there? Bubblepop VioletWhirlwind (1:34 am): (XD) Talon (1:34 am): She could probably get something for the group to eat. She mentioned this, too, when the group met her. Talon (1:34 am): Munch crunch crunch Instant Fox (1:34 am): (Even the bugs taste like nuts XD) VioletWhirlwind (1:35 am): makes faces as she crunches one Mar Owens (1:35 am): Oh yeah, there should be... Mar Owens (1:35 am): gets out various sprouts and things VioletWhirlwind (1:35 am): Meh. it works Mar Owens (1:35 am): they were all given little supply bags, if they didn't have packs to pack VioletWhirlwind (1:36 am): (Crunchy, yet satisfying...Shot XP) Instant Fox (1:36 am): (XD I don't even know how I recognized that so fast) Mar Owens (1:37 am): (XD hee hee) VioletWhirlwind (1:37 am): (XP) Mar Owens (1:37 am): (but yeah oo that's...pretty much it though as far as what I have for tonight for RP) Kirby of the stars (1:37 am): Hey Jenna I'll take your Fried Bug if you don't want it Kirby of the stars (1:37 am): (okay ^^) Instant Fox (1:38 am): Here. Have mine too Digs it out and passes Instant Fox (1:38 am): (Ah) VioletWhirlwind (1:38 am): It ain't pizza...but it works Jenna (1:38 am): Hands it over Ick. Jenna (1:38 am): (Okaydokey) VioletWhirlwind (1:38 am): (k) Talon (1:39 am): (and talking about food at all has made me hungry. Regardless of the bugginesss of it.) Mar Owens (1:39 am): (that and it's nearly midnight anyway XD; and we lost one member of our crew...that said, we did good tonight as far as keeping people here XD;; ) Kirby of the stars (1:39 am): Snarf VioletWhirlwind (1:39 am): (heh) Mar Owens (1:42 am): poit then Mar Owens (1:42 am): or rather, the ending of IC Talon (1:42 am): poit. ~Hope, like Love, never dies. It may seem to disappear at times, but it’s always there, ready to be found again.~

Reni (4:52 am): they don't really hurt...but they ARE red Reni (4:52 am): (parens that) Talon (4:52 am): ICification approved, initializing RP. Comanche (4:52 am): IC Kirby of the stars (4:52 am): ICKirby! Tergonaut (4:53 am): the group is in the Jamming Jungle, making their way through the hot, sweaty underbrush as the day wears on above Reni (4:53 am): (at least I put sunscreen on my face this time...which was the important thing) Reni (4:53 am): IC Kirby of the stars (4:53 am): (Yup!) Kiorein (4:53 am): (haha jammin jungle) Jenna (4:53 am): This underbrush is hot and sweaty D= Sunglasses fogged up again Comanche (4:54 am): not much complaing despite his heavy jump/combat suit So? Talon (4:54 am): The heat and humidity do not seem to bother her in the least - nor does the underbrush. Reni (4:54 am): her fur is rather short...so it's less of an issue for her than for someone with longer thicker fur8 Talon* (4:55 am): Fun fact: Her suit has temperature normalization as part of its life support systems. In short? Built in AC. Jenna (4:55 am): So? Guy! It's horrible and I'm all icky and still covered in bug blood. Reni (4:55 am): her fur other than the quills, I mean Comanche (4:56 am): I've had to move through much worse... at least this isn't a sandy ++$@ hole Reni (4:56 am): The areas covered by quills? yeah, they are getting uncomfortable and sticky* Reni (4:56 am): ** * Kiorein (4:56 am): (Hey so mind telling me a little bit about this RP?) Tergonaut (4:56 am): he took off his hoodie a while ago, and is in his sleeveless shirt, sweat glistening on his skin Kirby of the stars (4:57 am): Seems to be doing just fine Hmm it's hot?

Kiorein (4:59 am): (Guess not >>) Mar Owens (4:59 am): (didn't I just tell you about it? oo) Reni (4:59 am): it's not the heat alone that's the problem...it's the MUGGYNESS Kiorein (5:00 am): (Oh Kiorein (5:00 am): (I somehow missed it) Mar Owens (5:00 am): Not that I need to say it, but mention it if you see fresh water that we can use. Talon (5:00 am): is there jungle for more than 20 more kilometers? Mar Owens (5:01 am): maybe a little less than that Talon (5:01 am): I could potentially flash-freeze the humidity in the air to provide us with some water. Talon (5:02 am): I also carry a small waterbottle of my own. lifts it off her belt and holds it up Mar Owens has left at 5:02 am Mar Owens has entered at 5:02 am Reni (5:02 am): panting somewhat Reni (5:02 am): (weba) Kirby of the stars (5:03 am): I could turn into Water Kirby oo Talon (5:03 am): And provide us with drinkable water? Smoky has left at 5:04 am Smoky has entered at 5:04 am Smoky has left at 5:04 am Reni (5:04 am): we could always lick water off of leaves...but that would take forever Jenna (5:04 am): We could just ask Bruno, guy. Talon (5:05 am): (XD wow, forgot about Bruno.) Reni (5:05 am): mumbleand be potentially deadly if we ran into some giant carnivorous plant... Mar Owens (5:05 am): raises a blonde eyebrow And Bruno has drinkable water that he spits out of his mouth?... Jenna (5:06 am): I dunno, I've never drunk it, mower man. But he's like, a turtle, I be he can find some, right? Mar Owens (5:07 am): Oh, that is possible. We all have some water, but it would be best to use available sources on the way if we can save it. Kirby of the stars (5:07 am): That's a good idea actually Reni (5:08 am): (hmm.) Reni (5:08 am): HC: 8as usual, sitting in Reni's quills) Reni (5:09 am): (how would humidity affect a chao, anyway...considering they are water-creatures...) Talon (5:09 am): (they probably like it.) Kirby of the stars (5:10 am): (Yeah the chao islands are Tropical in a sense) Kirby of the stars (5:10 am): (Chao gardens) Talon (5:10 am): tucks her waterbottle back on her belt, shrugging Reni (5:11 am): (that makes sense) Mar Owens (5:11 am): keeps an eye out as they continue through the brush. There are tiny biting insects that are trying to get at them along the way, though they are mostly harmless Reni (5:12 am): HC: appears completely comfortable with all the humidity Talon (5:13 am): swats a bug that lands on her visor Painting has entered at 5:13 am Reni (5:13 am): (Everyone: starts eyeing HC thirstily) Smoky has left at 5:13 am Reni (5:14 am): (HC: chaoooo...

Kiorein has left at 5:14 am Mar Owens (5:15 am): the jungle is long, hot, and infested - but they don't encounter any other enemies or actively hostile creatures. Jenna, however, has a giant jungle snail attach itself to her ankle Talon (5:15 am): (Talon: Oh, hello Chiri.) Talon (5:15 am): (who @ painting) Kirby of the stars (5:15 am): (XD@ Snail) Reni (5:16 am): (XD @ snail) Painting (5:16 am): (who?)

Flail flain jump hop hop faceplant Mar Owens (5:17 am): Don't get ahead too far! We need to stay together! Mar Owens (5:17 am): ...and we need to get that off of Jenna's foot.

T___T Talon (5:18 am): helps Jenna up, lifting the snail off her foot Excuse us. and she sets it on a large leaf Mar Owens (5:20 am): Snail: makes an "eep!" noise at being picked up and curls up, but once safely on the leaf for a while, it peeks out suspiciously, then starts slugging along Reni (5:20 am): (XD Snails make noises?) Mar Owens (5:21 am): (this one does!) Talon (5:21 am): (in Terg's world they do! Talon (5:21 am): ) Reni (5:21 am): (heh) Mar Owens (5:22 am): Seems like it was harmless. Reni (5:24 am): (XD...I just thought of something) Reni (5:25 am): (I used to watch that Timon & Pumbaa animated series...) Reni (5:25 am): (and there was a sining snail in one ep XD) Reni (5:25 am): (singing) Comanche (5:25 am): This is taking forever.... Talon (5:26 am): The jungle thins significantly just on the fringes of my scanner range. Reni (5:26 am): Yeah >.> Talon (5:26 am): So it is not too much farther. Relatively speaking. Jenna (5:26 am): I hate this jungle =( Reni (5:27 am): ...and I can't run. It's too crowded with vines Comanche (5:27 am): Oh, so only a few more miles then? Talon (5:27 am): Approximately twenty kilometers. Painting** (5:28 am): As they walked, a figure headed in the opposite direction began to become visible. It seemed to be a boy wearing a black robe. Talon (5:29 am): (uh.) Talon (5:29 am): (Did you get Terg's permission to jump in? o-o;; ) Mar Owens (5:29 am): (should have mentioned it, you need group approval to join this RP) Jenna (5:29 am): Hasn't spotted the figure... mostly because all she can see is blurs Mar Owens (5:29 am): (but then again, you didn't ask about joining it, so you didn't give me an opportunity to mention it :P) Painting (5:29 am): (well Painting (5:30 am): (Can I then?) Mar Owens (5:30 am): (what do you say guys?) Reni (5:30 am): (fine by me) Talon (5:31 am): holds her water bottle out to Jenna Painting (5:31 am): (So is that a yes?) Jenna (5:31 am): Thanks Tally... Washes her hat Reni (5:31 am): (but I'm not the final authority) Jenna (5:31 am): (Arrr!) Talon (5:31 am): (Uh, I dunno.) Talon (5:32 am): ... I gave it to you to drink. Mar Owens (5:32 am): (it's a group deal oo we all need to approve) Mar Owens (5:32 am): (this helps avoid trouble in the future) Instant Fox (5:32 am): (What, I thought the mofo was too uncool for you?) Talon (5:32 am): Irritated hunter. Mar Owens (5:32 am): (and there's that little matter as well, really) Painting (5:32 am): (No, I was just sad that you didn't go to italic ) Jenna (5:32 am): (Arr is Crimspeak for yes) Comanche (5:33 am): That's why I always put a memo on my hand outs, Talon... Mar Owens (5:33 am): (I have to admit I'm hesitant as well to let you in) Instant Fox has left at 5:35 am Comanche (5:35 am): (Yeah; can you be here at a reasonable enough time for it?) Painting (5:35 am): (ya) Mar Owens (5:36 am): (for now, you may continue to watch, and we can always bring it up again if you're still interested) Reni (5:36 am): (o.o) Instant Fox has entered at 5:36 am Reni (5:36 am): (weba) Talon (5:36 am): (I may as well speak up - Given your usual attitude I don't think you should join. i will give you the benefit of the doubt if you are genuinely interested.) Talon (5:36 am): (weba insty.) Instant Fox (5:36 am): (Sorry, Internet Died) Instant Fox (5:37 am): (Thaanks) Painting (5:37 am): (wait, who you) Mar Owens (5:37 am): (weba) Talon (5:37 am): (You, Kio.) Mar Owens (5:38 am): (he was asking who you were, I think) Painting (5:38 am): (No, I mean who are you) Mar Owens (5:38 am): (and that is Alisha, one of the regulars here) Mar Owens (5:38 am): the jungle trek continues!...until they run into a problem Mar Owens (5:38 am): there is a river ahead all right Painting (5:38 am): (Wait... what's my "usual attitude"? ) Talon (5:39 am): (... In a word, annoying.) Reni (5:39 am): ...Drat. Well that's water...but I'm not sure it's what we had in mind... Mar Owens (5:39 am): (well, usually you come in here, shoot people, and otherwise make a scene) Mar Owens (5:39 am): (and you haven't seriously RPed in a long time) Kirby of the stars (5:40 am): (BACK) Mar Owens (5:40 am): (so that's probably what she's referring to) Painting (5:40 am): (Well, I haven't seriously RPed here at least) Mar Owens (5:40 am): and it's a large, wide river Reni (5:40 am): (weba) Kirby of the stars has left at 5:40 am Kirby of the stars has entered at 5:40 am Talon (5:40 am): (yes, that's what I'm referring to.) Kirby of the stars (5:41 am): (Boy I love getting kicked out >> ) Instant Fox (5:41 am): (Weba) Reni (5:41 am): (weba0 Kirby of the stars (5:41 am): (Thanks) Comanche (5:41 am): Hope you all can swim Painting (5:41 am): (Well gee whiz) Mar Owens (5:42 am): ...actually, hold on a sec. I don't want to get into the water until we determine if there aren't any predators in it. Mar Owens (5:43 am): Ari: Like those fishes from the other river? Mar Owens (5:43 am): Yes, like those. Reni (5:43 am): she can swim...but not all that WELL Talon (5:43 am): walks up to the river's edge, scanning into the water as well as looking around for signs of predators Reni (5:43 am): and REALLY not that well in a CURRENT Reni (5:44 am): looks at the river with more than a hint of trepidation Kirby of the stars (5:44 am): I love swimming puts on swimmers mask Mar Owens (5:44 am): there are fishies in there, and some plants, but none seem to be hostile - except OHNOES KILLER GUPPY EATING THAT PLANT VICIOUSLY RAWR RAWR Mar Owens (5:45 am): oh and some turtles Kirby of the stars (5:45 am): Yes he pulled it out of hammerspace got a problem with that? Mar Owens (5:45 am): Turtles: they come floating up to the surface Reni (5:45 am): (hmmm...EEEEEENteresting...) Mar Owens (5:45 am): Turtles: they have jagged ivory shells and beady black eyes Kirby of the stars (5:47 am): Are they harmless? Talon (5:47 am): I'm not seeing anything that's a threat to a humanoid. Jenna (5:48 am): Blink blinks Cuute Mar Owens (5:48 am): Turtles: kinda float there, staring at them - though they are spread out across the river, and relatively equidistant from each other and each end of the river in a roughish line Reni (5:48 am): ...Any crocs? that would be dangerous... Talon (5:48 am): No crocodilians. Comanche (5:48 am): ...tnk we can walk it? point at the line Reni (5:48 am): (I thought so...0 Mar Owens (5:49 am): well, it's be more like hopping or jumping, rather than walking Reni (5:49 am): (@ turtles configuration) Talon (5:50 am): The turtles might object... Reni (5:50 am): ..but if it keeps me out of the water...i'm all for it! Kirby of the stars (5:50 am): I don't think they would mind Mar Owens (5:51 am): crouches down and looks out at the turtles Talon (5:52 am): I for one will swim it. Glue and bug remains are undignified. Talon (5:52 am): and she steps into the water, wading out before beginning to swim across - she's a strong swimmer, even with all her stuff on. Mar Owens (5:52 am): They look big enough, but...I'm not sure if they'd support the weight of our heavier team members. Reni (5:52 am): ...there is that...yes Mar Owens (5:53 am): That, and Talon is right - we don't exactly have pemission. Reni (5:53 am): @ glue and bug remains Jenna (5:53 am): Looks thoughtfull a moment Comanche (5:53 am): I'll swim it too then move to swim along side Talon, he jumpsuit apparently shedding water C'mon you wimps, water is great! Mar Owens (5:53 am): and he starts to swim as well Mar Owens (5:53 am): Ari: transforms into her smaller dragon form and flies over Reni (5:54 am): hesitate Reni (5:54 am): ...I DON'T like water Talon (5:54 am): pauses in the middle, treading water Can you swim? Kirby of the stars (5:54 am): Jumps in the water and starts swimming across Instant Fox (5:54 am): C'mon Guys. It'll be good for getting some of this gunk off anyways Reni (5:54 am): ...not very WELL...and not in a current Instant Fox (5:55 am): Heads in after the others Mar Owens (5:55 am): The current isn't too strong, and if you have trouble, Talon and I could get you across Jenna (5:56 am): Go Bruno! Bruno: Squirtle! >.- Talon (5:56 am): Nods Reni (5:56 am): looks at the river, the team members, the turtles, and back at the team members Reni (5:56 am): indecision Jenna (5:57 am): Jenna: You know surf? Bruno: Nods Jenna: Well get me across! Bruno: Uses strength and hurls her instead, and offers a hand to Reni, stepping in the water Jenna (5:57 am): Jenna: Ahhhh >.< Reni (5:57 am): pacing the shore now Mar Owens (5:57 am): (XDXD @ Bruno) Reni (5:57 am): (XD) Mar Owens (5:57 am): Turtles: float float Mar Owens (5:57 am): River: splish sploosh swirl Talon (5:58 am): (XDXDXD <3 Bruno.) Mar Owens (5:58 am): Giant killer hedgehog-eating mobile plant: RAKKA-RAKKA-RAKKA!!!! Reni (5:58 am): (XD!) Mar Owens (5:58 am): okay lolz not really @ the plant Jenna (5:58 am): Bruno: Squirtle, squirtle! To Reni Comanche (5:58 am): (XD) Instant Fox (5:58 am): (Reni: looks at Bruno I think It'd rather swim it >.> ) Reni (5:59 am): HC: already swimming Talon (5:59 am): And Talon's energy rope snaps out and slows Jenna so she doesn't break something Jenna (6:00 am): Thanks Tally! Adjusts her hat Mar Owens (6:00 am): finishes swimming across, then gets up and looks back across as he squeezes out water from his pants Reni (6:00 am): (Reni: puts a toe to the water girly scream, runs the other way) Kirby of the stars (6:01 am): Climbs on the other shore with Mars That was fun ^^ Comanche (6:01 am): also reaches the other side, simply drying his hair out by running his hands through it a few times to get the excess out Kirby of the stars (6:01 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (6:01 am): And shakes excess water of himself, getting others wet in the process Reni (6:01 am): Hmmm...maybe I can jump across Talon (6:01 am): Talon is still treading water in the middle, waiting for Reni Reni (6:02 am): backs up Reni (6:02 am): rev Mar Owens (6:02 am): Turtles: all watching Reni Instant Fox (6:02 am): Gets off the other side and shakes too Mar Owens (6:02 am): Turtles: eerily enough Reni (6:02 am): run and jump! Jenna (6:03 am): Bruno: Rolls his eyes with a "Whatever" shrug and zips across, he's a squirtle, it's water. No problem there. Reni (6:03 am): lands in the middle of the river Reni (6:03 am): GAH panic Mar Owens (6:03 am): Turtles: starts swimming toward Reni Reni (6:04 am): splash, panic, splash Talon (6:04 am): Swims over to Reni, putting one strong arm under her arms and swiming towards the far shore Mar Owens (6:04 am): Reni! he jumps back into the water Mar Owens (6:04 am): Turtles: hover around in the water near the panic site, seemingly attracted to Reni's panicked state Jenna (6:04 am): Bruno: Sighs and turns around Rassenfrassensquirtlefrassen o.- Reni (6:04 am): (XD @ Bruno) Talon (6:05 am): also keeping Reni's head above the water! Mar Owens (6:06 am): goes over to Talon and goes onto Reni's other side to support her over there Reni (6:06 am): HC: on the other side Chao! translation: encouragement towards Reni Talon (6:06 am): I've got her. Talon (6:06 am): and air if necessary. Reni (6:07 am): thrash, panic Jenna (6:07 am): Bruno: Arrives at the group and offers a hand Kirby of the stars (6:07 am): Good job! Mar Owens (6:07 am): Reni, calm down! stays a little ways back, trying to keep the turtles from swarming them Talon (6:08 am): Calm down, panicking is the last thing to do in the water. Reni (6:08 am): flinging water everywhere <Calm....Down...Girl...It's only water...> Reni (6:09 am): deep breaths, hopefully AVOVE the water, but starts to calm down Reni (6:09 am): <What am I SAYING?! Only WATER?!> Talon (6:10 am): as mentioned, Talon is doing her best to keep Reni above the water - the thrashing makes that difficult and the going slow however. Reni (6:10 am): almost starts panicing again...but stops Mar Owens (6:10 am): Turtles: they start losing interest as soon as the panicking slows down Jenna (6:10 am): Bruno: Squi-squirt-squirtle. Rolls his eyes again and this time tries to grab Reni's hand. Impatient Bruno is impatient Reni (6:11 am): (heh) Comanche (6:11 am): (Gah, can't focus anymore... night) Reni (6:11 am): ... Instant Fox (6:11 am): (Night) Reni (6:11 am): Just get me outa this...water... Reni (6:11 am): (seeya) Talon (6:11 am): Then relax and let me tow you. as she swims Talon (6:12 am): Can has other side? Jenna (6:12 am): Bruno: Nods and uses Surf. Which for coolness sake and his size, is more like jetskiing holding his tail Instant Fox (6:12 am): (Can has sharks?) Mar Owens (6:13 am): gets out of the water too Comanche has left at 6:13 am Mar Owens (6:13 am): (night Trans) Mar Owens (6:13 am): (oh, hmm...well) Mar Owens (6:13 am): Sharks: FEEDING FRENZY! Mar Owens (6:13 am): Sharks: ...in the Shining Sea several miles away Cally has left at 6:13 am Mar Owens (6:13 am): (can has sharks) Reni (6:13 am): (XDXD) Instant Fox (6:13 am): (thxu XD) Jenna (6:14 am): Bruno: On land he promtly raps Reni on the back of her hand and starts ranting in squirtle at her Jenna (6:14 am): God knows what he's saying Talon (6:14 am): (XDXD @ Sharks) Mar Owens (6:14 am): and once they are all out of the water, a large dragonfly zips out over the river Jenna (6:14 am): (Oh dang, sorry Terg) Kirby of the stars has left at 6:14 am Kirby of the stars has entered at 6:14 am Mar Owens (6:14 am): (NPs, you caught it that time oob) Reni (6:14 am): crawls onto the shore and starts kissing the ground Mar Owens (6:15 am): Dragonfly: buzz buzz, very loudly!

Reni (6:16 am): also, Sweatdrop @ turtles Kirby of the stars (6:16 am): So that's what Justin meant we he tried to warn us about jmuping on things Instant Fox (6:16 am): Oh! Maybe those were what we weren't supposed to step on Instant Fox (6:16 am): (Agh) Talon (6:16 am): eyebrow Fascinating. Jenna (6:17 am): Bruno: Still ranting! Tle Squir!

Mar Owens (6:18 am): (and yes, I was totally gonna have them flip over and start drowning the poor unfortunate soul who actually stepped on them) Jenna (6:18 am): Bruno: Storms back over to Jenna, tapping a foot until she sends him home Reni (6:18 am): HC: runs over to Reni's side, and hugs her leg Chao! chao chao cha! ^V^ Reni (6:19 am): (Knew it all along...@ turtles :P) Reni (6:19 am): (From the moment I said "EEEEEnteresting") Mar Owens (6:20 am): (heh XP) Reni (6:20 am): (just didn't want to give it away) Mar Owens (6:20 am): Turtles: yup, the ivory shells are actually teeth...and these things are pretty nasty to anything that gets onto them Reni (6:22 am): (I was debating having reni jump right into the fire with them so to speak..but I decided to go easy on her and send her into a panic instead :P) Mar Owens (6:22 am): Ah...well, that solves THAT mystery. Mar Owens (6:23 am): We haven't seen any dangling fruit so far, though... Reni (6:23 am): (Reni: You call THAT going easy on me?!) Reni (6:24 am): (Reni: I would have rathered take my chances with the turtles! T_T) Reni (6:24 am): (Would you...would you REALLY? @ Reni) Reni (6:25 am): (Reni: I coulda jumped across em before they even reacted! boast) Mar Owens (6:25 am): Anyway, let's continue on then. Instant Fox (6:25 am): (I guess she could have, but where's the fun in that? :d) Reni (6:25 am): (Uh huh...unimpressed @ Reni) Instant Fox (6:25 am): Nods Mar Owens (6:25 am): at least the group got the benefit of washing off the gunk applied to them earlier Reni (6:25 am): (heh) Mar Owens (6:26 am): and the cool refreshing river water is clean and pure, as well as a great way to beat the heat! Reni (6:26 am): yeah BUT! Reni (6:27 am): fur is still drenched, and in this humidity, probably won't dry for a while Talon (6:27 am): I'm assuming drinkable as well? Because if it is, Talon's refilling her waterbottle. Reni (6:27 am): wet quills = HEAVY Arikyrenne has entered at 6:28 am Reni (6:28 am): mumble dernrasenfrasenriver...

Arikyrenne (6:29 am): (o0...Looks like it@/back ) Instant Fox (6:29 am): Gives himself another shake and heads down to the river for a drink Talon (6:29 am): Considering how clean the water is, this may be a good place to rest and rehydrate ourselves. Reni (6:30 am): Shakes again as well Jenna (6:31 am): Wash! Mar Owens (6:31 am): Yes, that would be a good idea... Reni (6:31 am): back to the river for a drink...but she's only letting her mouth barely touch the water Reni (6:32 am): Glaring NEEDLES @ the turtles Kirby of the stars (6:32 am): And stops drinking when Jenna starts washing her self >> Reni (6:34 am): sated, retreats back to the campsite Reni (6:34 am): mutter Dernlousyteeth-turtles... Mar Owens (6:34 am): Turtles: they seem rather impassive about the surface dwellers, and seeing that they can't have a feast, they descend back into the depths Reni (6:35 am): grumble Stupidflippinjungle pout Reni (6:35 am): all around general BAD mood Reni (6:36 am): also, partly that bad mood is from embarrassment at her panic attack Ari/Arik has left at 6:37 am Reni (6:37 am): Dangstupidpanicattack...ruinin my rep...

Reni (6:38 am): grumpy hedgehog is grumpy...retreats into a curl Talon (6:38 am): Fear of water is natural, especially if you're not a strong swimmer. Talon (6:39 am): and her eyebrows pop up at being greeted with a bristling purple ball. Reni (6:40 am): from within comes a mumble Jus leave me 'lone right now, k? not really angry-sounding...just not happy either Reni (6:40 am): (tee hee...) Talon (6:42 am): would offer a comforting pat, but does not want to poke herself, so she just shrugs, before focusing on her scans to occupy the time before they move on Reni (6:43 am): (heh) Reni (6:43 am): (I'm so mean to her XD) Arikyrenne (6:43 am): (brb) Jenna (6:44 am): ...=( Re-re.

Through the jungle, away from the cool refreshing river and the Teeth Turtles that inhabit it Comanche (10:10 pm): More jungle? This is getting a bit old... Talon (10:11 pm): For another 18 kilometers. Kirby of the stars (10:12 pm): That's too long! Comanche (10:12 pm): Aw c'mon, leg it out! Talon (10:12 pm): longsuffering sigh as she walks. Who is she sighing at? That's anyone's guess. Mar Owens (10:13 pm): We'll just have to push through, unless we can find-and suddenly, there is a path - a large path Talon (10:13 pm): ... a path. Mar Owens (10:13 pm): well, it isn't really a path - more like a swath of jungle that has been cut out, leaving branches and stumps and vines all over the floor Mar Owens (10:13 pm): but it leads straight in the direction they are going Comanche (10:15 pm): Looks like we were not the first ones to move through here for sure Instant Fox (10:15 pm): Could be more of those chainsaw bots Talon (10:16 pm): That's fairly likely.

Mar Owens (10:34 pm): Too late...she'll probably trip over a log or something. sighs Talon (10:34 pm): Should I stop her? Mar Owens (10:34 pm): Even if it's been cleared so we can see farther, there's still all this junk in the way... Mar Owens (10:34 pm): shakes his head If she gets attacked, she should be able to pull out...or at least it'll give us enough warning so we can figure a way to counterattack. Mar Owens (10:35 pm): Hopefully, before she gets herself killed. Talon (10:35 pm): sigh VioletWhirlwind (10:35 pm): Yaaaaaaahhhooooooo! VioletWhirlwind (10:35 pm): I SO needed this....

VioletWhirlwind (10:41 pm): (Or not) VioletWhirlwind (10:41 pm): (XD) Talon (10:42 pm): (That chao is the center of attention. XD) VioletWhirlwind (10:42 pm): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (10:42 pm): Um. embarrased again Talon (10:43 pm): trying to soothe the chao, but holds it out to Reni when she scrambles over Mar Owens (10:43 pm): picks his way forward, keeping an eye out But, why a random swath out here in the middle of nowhere? VioletWhirlwind (10:43 pm): Oh HC...I'm SOOO sorry...>.< VioletWhirlwind (10:44 pm): HC: apparently forgets the whole incided when cuddled by Reni Chao! ^v^ VioletWhirlwind (10:44 pm): (incident) Comanche (10:44 pm): Aw, thosethings are kinda neat... Mar Owens** (10:45 pm): in the distance... Mar Owens (10:45 pm): there is the slightest rumbling VioletWhirlwind (10:45 pm): suddenly notces a pain in her ankle VioletWhirlwind (10:46 pm): sinking feeling Oh no... Comanche (10:46 pm): turn in the direction of the rumbling, drawling his pistol ! Mar Owens (10:47 pm): that would be the sky overhead - there are clouds gathering VioletWhirlwind (10:47 pm): tries to stand Talon (10:47 pm): ... also draws her own pistol, consulting her scans for what the source may VioletWhirlwind* (10:47 pm): YELP! Talon (10:47 pm): (...) Talon (10:47 pm): (... I did not press enter.) VioletWhirlwind (10:47 pm): (o.o) Comanche (10:48 pm): Reni? Mar Owens (10:48 pm): (heh XP) VioletWhirlwind (10:48 pm): (I'm so mean >:P) Talon (10:48 pm): Well, her hand goes to her pistol but once she sees - and scans - the weather, she frowns We should take cover. Mar Owens (10:48 pm): at least, that seems to be a rumble of thunder overhead Mar Owens (10:48 pm): but, why is it more constant than that? Comanche (10:48 pm): This can't be just a storm... VioletWhirlwind (10:49 pm): looks at her ankle...its starting to swell VioletWhirlwind (10:49 pm): ...Great. VioletWhirlwind (10:50 pm): I'm SOOOO stupid... Mar Owens (10:50 pm): but then it becomes more apparent as the first raindrops fall - the rumbling becomes two rumblings, and one of them is at ground level and headed straight for them from behind along the path Talon (10:50 pm): ... and treat Reni's ankle. You twisted it fairly violently. Nothing broken, though. Mar Owens (10:50 pm): rapidly approaching is what looks like some kind of large, black bulldozer - easily large enough to sweep up the logs and other debris up in its large scoop, which has blades that slice up and process the materials Mar Owens (10:51 pm): it's also house-sized Talon (10:51 pm): ... and get away from that. Mar Owens (10:51 pm): and it seems to be moving on high-speed treads, the whole structure heavily armored and designed to crush anything in its way and devour it VioletWhirlwind (10:51 pm): ...it's not broken? Oh good... Comanche (10:52 pm): Yeah! Uh, where can we go? VioletWhirlwind (10:52 pm): sweatdrop at the approaching buldozer Oh great... VioletWhirlwind (10:52 pm): And I can't do anything... Comanche (10:53 pm): (How much does reni weigh? :O) Instant Fox (10:53 pm): Aw jeez. That's even worse than the chainsaws Mar Owens (10:53 pm): Ari! Switch to full dragon form and pick up Reni. Mar Owens (10:53 pm): Everyone, scatter laterally - don't try to outrun it, it'll definitely get you then! VioletWhirlwind (10:53 pm): (don't you know, never ask a girl her weight! ;P) Comanche (10:53 pm): (XD) Talon (10:54 pm): backing out of the dozer's path with leaps and jumps Instant Fox (10:54 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (10:54 pm): Ari: Okay! she focuses for a second, then transforms into her full dragon form and goes over to Reni, lowering her head down to scoop up Reni Sorry, but we have to hurry^^; VioletWhirlwind (10:54 pm): CAN'T outrun it NOW :P Comanche (10:54 pm): also runs and leaps aside VioletWhirlwind (10:54 pm): (Oh whoops) Kirby of the stars has entered at 10:54 pm Mar Owens (10:54 pm): he heads into the jungle, scooping up Kirby as he goes Mar Owens (10:55 pm): and just in time too! Instant Fox (10:55 pm): (:0) Talon (10:55 pm): (... pfft XD) Kirby of the stars (10:55 pm): (I feel like I missed something oo) VioletWhirlwind (10:55 pm): nods, scooped up Talon (10:55 pm): (/back 10, kirbs. XD>> Talon (10:55 pm): ) Mar Owens (10:56 pm): (robot bulldozer eating everything in its path, everyone is dodging out of the way) Kirby of the stars (10:56 pm): (Oh sorry about leaving earlier my mom wanted to get on) Mar Owens (10:56 pm): Ari: once Reni is secure, she flaps her large dragon wings - she's a white dragon with glints of gold in her scales, and she has golden eyes Mar Owens (10:56 pm): (nps, it happens Kirb) Mar Owens (10:56 pm): Ari: and she lifts her out of the way and toward the cover nearby Kirby of the stars (10:57 pm): Flees towards the cover VioletWhirlwind (10:58 pm): still sheepish Um...thanx. Mar Owens (10:58 pm): Ari: You're welcome ^^ Instant Fox (10:58 pm): Takes off running the trees, trying to keep going keep heading north Mar Owens (10:58 pm): hope everyone is out of the way, because that robot bulldozer is coming through where they just were - and not stopping for no pedestrians! Mar Owens (10:58 pm): no matter how well-armed they are Comanche (10:59 pm): aiming at it, waiting for it to go by to see if there is a cockpit to shoot out Mar Owens (10:59 pm): and it turns out to have a whole separate car attached to it just for containing all the materials it's gathering Mar Owens (10:59 pm): and no real cockpit, it has tons of sensor studs on all of its sides Talon (10:59 pm): once she's out of the dozer's path, she starts scanning the thing... wondering if there is some way she can foul it up and testing her theories with a quick toss of a black grenade - EMP. VioletWhirlwind (11:01 pm): Oh man! What a time for me to twist my foot! VioletWhirlwind (11:02 pm): smacks herself upside the head repeatedly Stupid! Stupidstupidstupid! Comanche (11:02 pm): What's that grenade Talon? Mar Owens (11:02 pm): Ari: sets down under cover with Reni Well, I might be able to heal it with my healing fire ^^; if that would be okay. Mar Owens (11:03 pm): the thing's got...hardly any structural weaknesses if any. It's built like a tank that was built out of tanks. Comanche (11:03 pm): (Killdozer!) VioletWhirlwind (11:03 pm): blink Oh um. Okay. blinkblink Thanks. Mar Owens (11:03 pm): and the EMP grenade flashes against it, but it's so heavily armored that it must have EMP protection - doesn't seem to slow it down a bit Talon (11:03 pm): Electromagnetic pulse. Disables most electronics. But it seems to be shielded. Comanche (11:04 pm): ...so now what, just avoid the thing? Mar Owens (11:05 pm): looks after it - it is quickly leaving them behind I don't think we have to work very hard at avoiding it - if anything, we'd have to work just to catch up to it again. Mar Owens (11:07 pm): (I gotta go afk for just a bit - maybe the group can figure out whether to try to follow it, or what to do - granted, the path is now actually a cleared path, so travel will be faster) VioletWhirlwind (11:07 pm): I wouldn't have to...if I hadn't twisted my foot >.>; Comanche (11:08 pm): Well, c an you stil lat least walk somewhat? VioletWhirlwind (11:09 pm): (Is Ari going to attempt the heal?) VioletWhirlwind (11:09 pm): ...Depends on if Ari can heal me, I guess... Instant Fox (11:09 pm): (When Terg gets back >.>) VioletWhirlwind (11:09 pm): (heh0 Kirby of the stars (11:09 pm): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (11:11 pm): ...Mother would have a fit if she could see what I just did....>.>;; Comanche (11:12 pm): Whatcha mean? VioletWhirlwind (11:13 pm): Running off like that and twisting my foot...in the middle of the jungle, no less VioletWhirlwind (11:13 pm): with a huge buldozer bareing down on me too VioletWhirlwind (11:13 pm): ...very recklass Kirby of the stars (11:13 pm): Yeah a very dangerous situation Talon (11:14 pm): Then you will endeavor not to repeat it. VioletWhirlwind (11:14 pm): (gah @ spelling) VioletWhirlwind (11:14 pm): Heh...sweatdrop yeah.... VioletWhirlwind (11:15 pm): winces at the thought of the lecture she would get Kirby of the stars (11:17 pm): (Lucky! I get yelled at =P ) VioletWhirlwind (11:17 pm): (end filler story :P) VioletWhirlwind (11:18 pm): (heh she'd probably get a little of both XD) Kirby of the stars (11:19 pm): (LOL) VioletWhirlwind (11:20 pm): Winces more at the thought of what her mom would say when she comes home from this whole adventure Comanche (11:21 pm): Oddly, I don't have a mom or dad to lecture me, I only had a commander smirk Kirby of the stars (11:21 pm): Eh, I used to get lectured sometimes I do Kirby of the stars (11:22 pm): Depends on who is lecturing me I suppose VioletWhirlwind (11:22 pm): heh... VioletWhirlwind (11:22 pm): I'm NOT looking forward to getting home from this adventure <.< VioletWhirlwind (11:23 pm): ...if you know what I mean Kirby of the stars (11:23 pm): Chuckles Talon (11:24 pm): ... clams up when parents come into the conversation. VioletWhirlwind (11:25 pm): ...But I couldn't just let Vor get AWAY with it after what he did to Daddy! VioletWhirlwind (11:25 pm): gets that serious look again Kirby of the stars (11:25 pm): I'll think your mom will understand that part Comanche (11:26 pm): Heh, if I did something like that, my trainer would ask if I was trying to get myself killed or was just stupid... Frosty has entered at 11:26 pm VioletWhirlwind (11:27 pm): ...O.o notices talon has gone silent and blinks Comanche (11:28 pm): Something up Talon? Talon (11:28 pm): ... nothing. Curtis has left at 11:29 pm Bernard T. has left at 11:29 pm Comanche (11:32 pm): Alright then.... Talon (11:32 pm): (Start speculating! :O XD) Talon (11:35 pm): continues marching along on the fringes of the cleared area, keeping her eyes and ears open Bauks has entered at 11:35 pm Bernard T. has entered at 11:36 pm Bauks (11:36 pm): (wrrfle?) Talon (11:36 pm): (hallo thar.) Instant Fox (11:37 pm): Heads after her trying to look and see if he can still see it Mar Owens (11:37 pm): (back) Instant Fox (11:37 pm): (Weba/Hiya) Cally has entered at 11:37 pm Rapidfire has left at 11:37 pm Mar Owens (11:38 pm): Ari: probably used her healing flame on Reni's ankle already, with positive results unless there's some weird allergy to magic, which Ari would naturally have asked about ahead of time AlloyRabbit (11:38 pm): (o.x) Talon (11:39 pm): The rain is probably making the going a bit rough, hm? I mean... jungle... clearcut... yeah... Mar Owens (11:40 pm): yup - the rain is picking up now, making the freshly-cleared path muddy and runny Kirby of the stars (11:40 pm): Trudges thorugh the mud I hate mud, and being small VioletWhirlwind (11:41 pm): (back...sorry, I suddenly got inspired to alter a drawing I was doing) Talon (11:41 pm): picks up Kirby and sets him on her helmeted head VioletWhirlwind (11:41 pm): and yes, I guess the healing went off without a hitch VioletWhirlwind (11:42 pm): trying out her freshly-healed foot Comanche (11:42 pm): stepping through it, being careful not snag his foot VioletWhirlwind (11:42 pm): Thanx, Ari! VioletWhirlwind (11:43 pm): (and that was exatcly what she was missing...@ bandana @ drawing n.n) VioletWhirlwind (11:44 pm): (I still may make some more alterations...but that's what was missing about her hair) Mar Owens (11:44 pm): Ari: You're welcome. ^^ has decided to stay in her full dragon form - it's a little easier keeping up that way, since her larger size lets her move more easily through the underbrush, although she's also staying quite close to Mar Kirby of the stars (11:44 pm): Thanks Talon Kirby of the stars (11:45 pm): (Sorry I was late) Talon (11:45 pm): Her boots sinking into the schlorping mud make all kind of squishy sloshy sounds Not a problem. VioletWhirlwind (11:45 pm): prepares to run, then decides against it on the slippery ground Kirby of the stars has entered at 11:46 pm Kirby of the stars has left at 11:46 pm VioletWhirlwind (11:46 pm): I better not chance it again... Mar Owens (11:46 pm): for his part, is trudging forward without complaining - he's keeping his eyes open as best he can VioletWhirlwind (11:47 pm): (weba) Mar Owens (11:47 pm): Ari: walks next to Mar and holds up a wing over him #^^# Um, here... Dark Lord Peaches has left at 11:47 pm VioletWhirlwind (11:47 pm): (Un italic) Comanche (11:47 pm): Tell me you aren't tired at Mar Mar Owens (11:47 pm): blinks, and glances up to see what stopped the rain on him ...thank you. Mar Owens (11:47 pm): Ari: You're welcome. ^^ Mar Owens (11:47 pm): looks over at Comanche All right. I'm not tired. Mar Owens (11:47 pm): deadpan Comanche (11:48 pm): Wimp~ trudges on a bit ahead of him, as if to prove a point Kirby of the stars (11:49 pm): I think Mars is down oo Mar Owens (11:49 pm): I only said what you told me to say...shrugs - he definitely did not get it VioletWhirlwind (11:50 pm): ...Waitaminute...if the bot-dozer came FROM this way... VioletWhirlwind (11:51 pm): wouldn't that mean the robot base IS this way? Comanche (11:51 pm): ...you could well be right. VioletWhirlwind (11:51 pm): and we were told to stay away from it... Kirby of the stars (11:51 pm): So this way is East oo VioletWhirlwind (11:52 pm): under her breath THough I could probably take them easily... Mar Owens (11:52 pm): they're going the way the bot-dozer was going, not where it came from VioletWhirlwind (11:52 pm): (oh) VioletWhirlwind (11:52 pm): (ok, scracth that then XD) Kirby of the stars (11:53 pm): (Oops) VioletWhirlwind (11:53 pm): (but that would still mean they are going west....not north) VioletWhirlwind (11:54 pm): (unless the bot-dozer was going north) Talon (11:55 pm): Talon will settle this by consulting what amounts to a compass in her sensors! Since the trees have been cleared, their smaller magnetic fields shouldn't interfere with detecting the planet's much larger and more powerful field, right? Mar Owens (11:55 pm): I was imaginining that they hit a path that was more or less north-south, but...well, I have to admit that I didn't think about the fact that they were already going that way. So it's probably a northeastern direction they are going in now, the bot came from the southwest? Mar Owens (11:55 pm): there, decision made Talon (11:55 pm): (... XD) Kiorein has entered at 11:55 pm Mar Owens (11:55 pm): (yowdy) VioletWhirlwind (11:56 pm): (heh0 Kirby of the stars (11:57 pm): (Hi Kio) VioletWhirlwind (11:57 pm): (so they're still sort-of headed toward the base then?) Instant Fox (11:57 pm): (Hiya) Talon (12:02 am): Just so you all know, this is no longer due north. Mar Owens (12:02 am): (kinda sorta headed toward the base through the cleared path the dozer made through the jungle - the rain is also picking up* Mar Owens (12:03 am): Let's just keep an eye out for increased robot activity...if we start seeing patrols, we should back off into the jungle due west, then head back north again, assuming we aren't already clear of it. Kirby of the stars (12:04 am): Okay Rapidfire has entered at 12:06 am VioletWhirlwind (12:07 am): sounds like a plan... Comanche (12:08 am): Right, sounds good. Cally has left at 12:08 am Mar Owens (12:09 am): doo-dee-doo, speaking of patrols - here's one now! VioletWhirlwind (12:09 am): (hee...I gave this character a pierced tailtip...with a dreamcatcher at the end of the peircing) Mar Owens (12:09 am): Patrol: patrolling! It is a small cluster of camera bots, hovering sensor pods that are cutting across the open path, their various sensor lights blinking Talon (12:09 am): Get down! Kirby of the stars (12:10 am): Jumps off Talon's head, into the brush Talon (12:10 am): and she does so, taking cover VioletWhirlwind (12:10 am): resists urge to destroy them, and gets down Comanche (12:11 am): also gets down under the brush, quickly moving in such a way he quicky blends in with the enviroment, weaon ready if somethign goes wrong Mar Owens (12:12 am): Ari, switch to a smaller form! They'll see you like that! Mar Owens (12:12 am): ducks for cover as well Instant Fox (12:12 am): Does the same, trying to watch as they go by Talon (12:12 am): quietly field amp, suppress... and her heat signature and the energy signature of her suit would completely vanish - the end result being "whar'd Tally go? :O" Mar Owens (12:13 am): Ari: Oh! and she shifts down...to her cat form, and hops up onto Mar's shoulder as they hide in the brush Mar Owens (12:13 am): Cambots: are continuing on what seems to be a preset path, curving toward the group's hiding spot, but just as they start getting close, they curve back away, slowly, making little bleepy noises as they go Talon (12:14 am): ... palms an EMP from her hiding spot, ready to unleash it and fratz the bots Cally has entered at 12:14 am Mar Owens (12:15 am): stays very still - the rain creates a background noise that is almost annoying, rattling, as it gets heavier and heavier, hitting the leaves and pattering through the trees, gathering in muddy pools Mar Owens (12:16 am): it's also making it harder to see - nonetheless, the cambots continue on their path, heading further and further away from the group Mar Owens (12:17 am): and soon enough, the patrol is gone... Mar Owens (12:17 am): for now Mar Owens (12:17 am): ...move it. We head straight north now. Comanche (12:17 am): I think they've moved on. Let's get the +@ out of here VioletWhirlwind (12:19 am): nod right. Kirby of the stars (12:19 am): I'm with you on that VioletWhirlwind (12:19 am): (Sorry...was drawing again) VioletWhirlwind (12:19 am): (gave her some more piercings) VioletWhirlwind (12:20 am): (I already gave her a tattoo XD) Instant Fox (12:20 am): hops up...Which way is north? VioletWhirlwind (12:21 am): (her first name is an anagram of the word "rebel" XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:21 am): (with her nickname actually BEING Rebel) shylarah has entered at 12:21 am Mar Owens (12:22 am): (yowdy) AlloyRabbit has left at 12:22 am AlloyRabbit has entered at 12:22 am VioletWhirlwind (12:22 am): (weba @ met) Curtis has entered at 12:23 am VioletWhirlwind (12:23 am): (and her last name is an anagram of the word "freedom" XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:24 am): (I'm so clever sarcasm XP) Talon (12:25 am): Rises out of her hiding spot, then stretches her arm to point north That way. VioletWhirlwind (12:25 am): hesitates...partly wanting to chase bots Kirby of the stars (12:26 am): Crawls out of his spot now half brown VioletWhirlwind (12:26 am): Have some common sense, Girl. that's a BAD idea... VioletWhirlwind (12:27 am): also....Muddy quills VioletWhirlwind (12:27 am): SHAKE Mar Owens (12:27 am): Let's go, then. he's muddy too, but he leaves it on as he continues Comanche (12:27 am): unbothered, and starts to move after it looks like he just kinda rose out of nowhere in the jungle Mar Owens (12:27 am): Ari: was on Mar's shoulder in cat form, so she's relatively okay, though she is rather damp from the wet Mar Owens (12:28 am): he leads the way again, taking point and making sure his beamarang's handle is close at hand. His dark eyes scan the darkening jungle as they cut across the path and head into the jungle again, the normal jungle noises gone as the rain and thunder dominate the skies and the air Instant Fox has left at 12:28 am Instant Fox has entered at 12:29 am Comanche (12:29 am): We need to get out of this before it turns to night completely... VioletWhirlwind (12:32 am): (that song is always so...HAUNTING....) VioletWhirlwind (12:32 am): (@ "the Year 2525") VioletWhirlwind (12:32 am): (or whatever it's called) Comanche (12:33 am): (YES @@ It used to freak me out) Mar Owens (12:33 am): (oo? ) VioletWhirlwind (12:33 am): (I love those types of songs for some reason XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:34 am): (it was just ont he radio) VioletWhirlwind (12:34 am): (I changed my station) VioletWhirlwind (12:35 am): (oldies now :P) Comanche (12:35 am): (Now it's been 10,000 years, Man has cried a billion tears, For what, he never knew.

VioletWhirlwind (12:39 am): (XD) VioletWhirlwind (12:39 am): (an undead ogre....XD) Mar Owens (12:39 am): the day has turned dark as the group trudges on through the jungle, for hours...there is an occasional flash of lightning, and through it there are the shapes of jungle creatures fleeing for cover... Talon (12:39 am): She's now keeping track of the terrain via her scanners, looking for a cave or the like that they can take cover in - the weather is getting too severe to travel in, in her opinion Talon (12:41 am): if she were solo she might continue, but the others... Comanche (12:41 am): thriving in this, moving quickly, smoothly, and acting like he's moving behind enemy lines or something lolz VioletWhirlwind (12:41 am): drenched AND muddy VioletWhirlwind (12:42 am): ...I'm really starting to dislike this jungle...--_-- Mar Owens (12:43 am): Ari: has shifted to her tigress humanoid form, which is easier to move in, but is large enough where she doesn't have to worry about being sucked into the mud like her cat form. VioletWhirlwind (12:43 am): (what is this EC?) Talon (12:43 am): (the AIM group.) VioletWhirlwind (12:43 am): (ah) Mar Owens (12:43 am): after what seems to be hours...and what actually ARE hours...they finally reach a cave opening in the side of a mountain near the jungle VioletWhirlwind (12:44 am): (never really much liked AIM) Comanche (12:46 am): Steps in, resting against a wall So we stay here for the night, hoping we're just sharing the cave with each other? VioletWhirlwind (12:47 am): enters...then SHAKES again...flinging mud and water EVERYWHERE Mar Owens (12:47 am): it's a fairly low cave, so they'll have to stoop a little to get in...at least, the taller members of the party Mar Owens (12:47 am): but after getting inside, it's fairly wide, and continues back a ways Mar Owens (12:47 am): so far, in fact, that it's more like a tunnel than a cave - they can't see the end of it VioletWhirlwind (12:48 am): sweatdrop What if... Mar Owens (12:48 am): gets into the cave just as Reni flings mud and water into his face Blegh! spit spit VioletWhirlwind (12:48 am): heh...sorry Kirby of the stars (12:48 am): Mud goes flying over his head Perks to being small Instant Fox (12:49 am): Enters Is it safe to stay here? Mar Owens (12:51 am): Ari: comes in as well, dripping from her fur, her tail especially bedraggled, but she doesn't complain as she looks around at everyone else, and stays close to Mar for warmth Kirby of the stars (12:51 am): Their could be a gaint tunneling worm or something -_- Talon (12:52 am): (had to afk a sec) Curtis (12:52 am): (They're sinking cities WITH A GIANT WORM) Mar Owens (12:52 am): (lol) Kirby of the stars (12:52 am): (Hi Bernard!)

Curtis (12:53 am): (Hi =D) VioletWhirlwind (12:53 am): (XD) Mar Owens (12:54 am): (Robot 2: Because it's a psychological warfare technique. Worms are <gross> to organics, and a giant worm = giant gross. Therefore, that is why we are using a giant worm even though we don't have any way to produce one, except through the slim chance of using radiation guns to grow one to mutant size.)

Mar Owens (12:58 am): (Vorallon: Your motherboard is Nicole.) VioletWhirlwind (12:58 am): ((XDXDXD) Comanche (12:59 am): (XDXD) VioletWhirlwind (12:59 am): (Reni:....That is just SOOO wrong.) Mar Owens (12:59 am): (Vorallon: I'm sorry that you had to be adopted by the organics...but it was the only way to test you as a new prototype robot.) Mar Owens (12:59 am): (Vorallon: However, you have failed. So goodbye. lasershoot) VioletWhirlwind (1:00 am): (Reni: vaporized x.x) Comanche (1:00 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (1:01 am): (=P) VioletWhirlwind (1:03 am): (Reni: ....I am a robot? ; _ ; self-destruct) VioletWhirlwind (1:06 am): (....and apparently I have self-destructed the RP) Instant Fox (1:06 am): (Nah, I selfdestructed myself) Comanche (1:09 am): (going to bed myself... night) Comanche has left at 1:09 am VioletWhirlwind (1:09 am): (aww seeya) Instant Fox (1:09 am): (>.> ) VioletWhirlwind (1:09 am): (DANG it) Mar Owens (1:10 am): (argh XD;; I'm killing the chat with silly OOC) Kirby of the stars (1:10 am): (Terg you alive?) Mar Owens (1:10 am): (but anyway! oo) Mar Owens (1:10 am): Cave: dark and stuff Mar Owens (1:11 am): Cave: and cool, though mostly dry...no thanks to Reni shaking VioletWhirlwind has left at 1:11 am VioletWhirlwind has entered at 1:11 am VioletWhirlwind (1:11 am): (Fhswklhfwehrfwh!) VioletWhirlwind (1:11 am): (grr disconnect) Mar Owens (1:12 am): (wash your mouth! Think of the children! covers HC's ears) VioletWhirlwind (1:12 am): (sorry) Mar Owens (1:13 am): I agree with Talon. This seems like a good place to secure ourselves, and the entry is small enough that we could barricade it against robots if need be. Mar Owens (1:13 am): (I was joking XD;; ) Kirby of the stars (1:13 am): HIIIIIIIIIII Waits for echo VioletWhirlwind (1:13 am): (heh I know) Cally has left at 1:13 am VioletWhirlwind (1:13 am): (but it was like...RP starts back up...) Mar Owens (1:13 am): Echo: there's...no echo. VioletWhirlwind (1:13 am): (and BOOM! disconnect) Kirby of the stars (1:14 am): No echo =( VioletWhirlwind (1:14 am): ...sweatdrop Mar Owens (1:15 am): It's probably just the qualities of the rock absorbing the sound instead of reflecting it. VioletWhirlwind (1:16 am): small voice But...what's back there?...thumbs toward the continuing tunnel Kirby of the stars (1:16 am): Darkness? VioletWhirlwind (1:16 am): Something could come and attack us in our sleep...I like having a wall at my back when I sleep...not a tunnel Talon (1:17 am): (okay. @ @; here I am XD) Talon (1:17 am): That's why we rotate a watch. Mar Owens (1:20 am): Jenna: There's probably some big nasty cave dragon thingie down there, and it smokes a cigar and has an eyepatch, and it has a ballerina voice! Mar Owens (1:20 am): Jenna: And I'll catch it! pulls out a Pokeball VioletWhirlwind (1:20 am): (XD) Mar Owens (1:21 am): We need to get warm and dry, first. Mar Owens (1:22 am): But if a...cave dragon comes up from that tunnel, you have the first go at it, Jenna. Mar Owens (1:22 am): Jenna: Boss! VioletWhirlwind (1:22 am): (XD) Frosty has left at 1:23 am VioletWhirlwind has left at 1:23 am VioletWhirlwind has entered at 1:24 am VioletWhirlwind (1:24 am): (mergleferg...--_--) VioletWhirlwind (1:25 am): (stop DCing me dangit!) Instant Fox (1:25 am): (Weba...and XD) Mar Owens (1:27 am): No chance of getting dry firewood from outside right now... VioletWhirlwind (1:27 am): o.o Talon (1:29 am): Hrm... Mar Owens (1:30 am): Ari: Umm...I could breathe fire... Mar Owens (1:30 am): Ari: ^^; Kirby of the stars (1:32 am): You can't breathe it for long however Mar Owens (1:32 am): ...but Kirby. Could you change into Fire Kirby if you breathed in some of her fire? Talon (1:33 am): I'm afraid I don't carry combustibles. VioletWhirlwind (1:33 am): snerk Talk about heartburn... Kirby of the stars (1:34 am): Sure I can! Kirby of the stars (1:34 am): Why didn't I think of that? Mar Owens (1:34 am): Is that okay, Ari? Mar Owens (1:35 am): Ari: nods, and she changes into her humanoid dragoness form...and has to sit down and crouch since she's a bit taller now, but she goes ahead, opens her mouth, and spews some regular flame Kirby of the stars (1:36 am): Inhales the flame transforming into Fire Kirby, illmulating the area VioletWhirlwind (1:36 am): lounging against the side wall VioletWhirlwind (1:37 am): trying to appear unconcerned8 VioletWhirlwind* (1:37 am): * Mar Owens (1:38 am): Ari: stops breathing fire, and converts back to her tigress form to dry off, and to be more comfortable Kirby of the stars (1:41 am): Sits down Instant Fox (1:42 am): Sits next to Kirby, trying to use the heat to dry off Mar Owens (1:42 am): smirks a little at seeing Kirby effectively provide a fire source Mar Owens (1:43 am): then he strips off his hoodie and his shirt, laying them on the ground where they'll get the heat from Kirby, though he is careful not to place them in places that would make them get in the way VioletWhirlwind (1:43 am): (great...now I feel like watching some of that Kirby TV show XD) Kirby of the stars (1:43 am): Kirby's Headress seems to be glowing brighter then before, but it could be a trick Kirby of the stars (1:43 am): (Kirby kirby kirby he's the name you should know!) Talon (1:44 am): She actually seems to be mostly dry already, and is sending scans down the far end of the tunnel, remaining alert, if not on guard VioletWhirlwind (1:45 am): most of her is dry already...her clothes don't take that long to dry, and her fur is short....but those quills...8 VioletWhirlwind* (1:45 am): * VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): they are still wet and somewhat heavy VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): it's not that each quill itself is hard to dry... VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): but they tend to trap the water Mar Owens (1:47 am): nothing unusual down the tunnel, except for some residual energy sources...which seem to match prior scans of the power crystal dust that they found on the train VioletWhirlwind (1:48 am): which is another reason she has a hard time swimming Kirby of the stars (1:49 am): Humming the song he sings when he's mike kirby VioletWhirlwind (1:49 am): (I hope that makes sense...0 Kirby of the stars (1:49 am): (It does indeed) Mar Owens (1:50 am): (yeah oo that's some thinking right there...I wonder how real hedgehog quills respond to water?) VioletWhirlwind (1:50 am): (yeah, I dunno) Kirby of the stars (1:51 am): (Well they are hard and bristle so I think they trap out water) Talon (1:51 am): (well, quills are a modification of hair.) VioletWhirlwind (1:51 am): (I have had close contact with them...when I went to europe one summer...and vollunteering at a zoo that had one...) VioletWhirlwind (1:51 am): (but I never dropped them in water XD) Talon (1:53 am): I'm going to scout out down the tunnel a short ways. There's power crystal residue. Mar Owens (1:53 am): (I'm glad you didn't!) VioletWhirlwind (1:54 am): (from my experience... some of the quills teld to point forward when others point backward or something) VioletWhirlwind (1:54 am): (sort of) Mar Owens (1:54 am): looks up Residue? There might be crystals here in this cave... Talon (1:54 am): (hedghogs are adorable. n n) VioletWhirlwind (1:54 am): (heh I would never) VioletWhirlwind (1:54 am): (Reni: Unless it was me >.>; Talon (1:54 am): (They kind of twitch when you pet them. But so adorable.) VioletWhirlwind (1:55 am): (yeah...I want one as a pet XD) VioletWhirlwind (1:55 am): (But I don't think they are allowed where I live ) Talon (1:57 am): nods And where there are crystals there is the potential for robots. VioletWhirlwind (1:58 am): bristle @ the mention of robots Mar Owens (1:58 am): (I've got to get going very shortly here, just a couple minutes left) VioletWhirlwind (1:58 am): (aww) Talon (1:58 am): She turns to walk down the tunnel If I encounter something, I will retreat. Mar Owens (1:58 am): That is true, although Ari and I went through a cave that had tons of power crystals, but no signs of robots...there were power crystal creatures, however. So be careful either way. nod Talon (1:59 am): There's the by now familiar cha-clack of her pistol cocking and she nods, heading off into the cave Mar Owens (2:02 am): leans back against a warmed cave wall...the cave stone is brown, and somewhat soft, readily absorbing the heat and releasing it - things are soon dry for the group Mar Owens (2:02 am): (and here we will have to end, for now) Mar Owens (2:02 am): (and until next week) Talon (2:02 am): depop! Kirby of the stars (2:03 am): OOC! VioletWhirlwind (2:03 am): pause sound effect! Mar Owens (2:05 am): OOC ~Hope, like Love, never dies. It may seem to disappear at times, but it’s always there, ready to be found again.~

I have three complete planes atm and 8 kits) AlloyRabbit (8:58 pm): (flown it around the backyard for a few weeks until it sorta got so banged up from the infinite crashes that the main wing snapped XD; it's not unfixable, but i've just never gotten around to it) Comanche (8:58 pm): (There is also one that is complete but missing an engine) AlloyRabbit (8:58 pm): (so the whole thing sits in my closet's upper shelf) Talon (8:59 pm): (oops.) Comanche (8:59 pm): (The ones I have are the big ones with the nitro engines) AlloyRabbit (8:59 pm): (other than that i have two of those little miniature indoor RC helicopters o.o one 2channel, one 3channel. they're neat =3) Talon (9:00 pm): yes, indeed, Talon is off exploring the rest of the tunnel solo Reni (9:00 pm): (I don't have any RC planes...but a long time ago, I used to have model rockets) Comanche (9:00 pm): (I took a model rockets class in middle school) Reni (9:00 pm): (and my dad and i would launch them) AlloyRabbit (9:00 pm): (i used to build those too) AlloyRabbit (9:00 pm): (many many years ago) AlloyRabbit (9:00 pm): (i like the smell of the used engines c.c) Comanche (9:00 pm): (It was fun and I was pretty good at it, but I don't have room in my back lawn to do it. Could do it on our good friend's yard, but never bothered to ask oo) Reni (9:00 pm): I still have the launch pad XD) Reni (9:01 pm): (but it's all bent XD; Talon (9:01 pm): (o.o can has less OOC?) Comanche (9:01 pm): So, how long has Talon been scouting things out Mar Owens (9:02 pm): Hmm... Comanche (9:02 pm): (tack a question mark onto the end of that) Reni (9:02 pm): (BRB) Talon (9:03 pm): Probably about half an hour to 45 minutes now. Mar Owens (9:03 pm): and she has found wonders Kirby of the stars (9:04 pm): Shifts and mutters something Get away from my food peguin. Mar Owens (9:04 pm): specifically...the entire cave after a certain point has become glassy, with various crystals of different kinds growing from the crystal lattice of the cavern Reni (9:05 pm): (back) Reni (9:06 pm): half-lidded eyes Talon (9:06 pm): She is quietly awed and fascinated, though remaining typically cautious as she heads deeper, exploring and mapping out the place Reni (9:07 pm): (crim ever gonna come back?) Arikyrenne (9:07 pm): still in tigress form, just sitting against a wall for now. She did glance over at Mar as he went to check his shirt/hoodie, before quickly returning her gaze towards the ground, uncertainty in her mind, though a slight blush beneath the fur on her cheeks Mar Owens (9:07 pm): We should probably send someone to go after her, though. Two someones; it wasn't that wise to let her go off alone. Comanche (9:08 pm): I'll go shrug, zips his jumpsuit up and stands Reni (9:09 pm): drifting off, despite herself Comanche (9:10 pm): Anyone else? smirk at the ones falling asleep Instant Fox (9:11 pm): Then I guess I'll go Mar Owens (9:12 pm): Okay; take care and watch your backs. We'll make sure you don't get flanked from here. looks over at Ari Right, Ari? Instant Fox (9:13 pm): Hops up Ready? Comanche (9:13 pm): Ready! nods to Instant, starts walking Arikyrenne (9:14 pm): looks back up, she had only be paying partial attention R-Right^^; Reni (9:14 pm): (Guh, TMI @ commercial >.<) Kirby of the stars (9:14 pm): Strangely nods in his sleep like he's agreeing with Mar Reni (9:15 pm): nodding...nodding off, that is :P Comanche (9:16 pm): notes the crystals as he moves through the cave Looks nice eh? Seen her yet? Mar Owens (9:16 pm): the crystal cave is beautiful, but there are also things crawling around in it - little bugs flitting through the air, shining with crystal wings and bioluminescent body parts Instant Fox (9:17 pm): Following Com Nothing yet Reni (9:17 pm): finally surrenders to the sleep...instinctively curling up facing the wall Reni (9:18 pm): HC: Chao. sitting protectively in front of her, it's little arms crossed Comanche (9:18 pm): These bugs are annoying though, both to the eyes and how they keep flying around Mar Owens (9:20 pm): Bugs: are a bit like beetles crossed with fireflies - there are a lot of them, and though some do curiously float nearby the intruders, they seem to maintain a constant distance from them, floating away like puffs of fuzz if approached Reni (9:20 pm): HC: serious expression guard-chao XD Reni (9:21 pm): (nixes the 'XD' It ruins the mood >.> ) Comanche (9:21 pm): Talon? loudly You there? Kirby of the stars (9:25 pm): (Guess not) Talon (9:25 pm): no answer - she's a lot deeper in Comanche (9:25 pm): (test) Kirby of the stars (9:25 pm): (=P) Comanche (9:25 pm): (XD) Comanche (9:26 pm): keeping on walking Cave's deep isn't it? Mar Owens (9:27 pm): by now, Talon would have come across some crystal crabs - they scuttle away into pools that line the edge of the tunnel, which has widened out to accomodate a surprising diversity. However, the cave starts to narrow again and she can hear some rumbling up ahead... Talon (9:29 pm): it is at this point that she raises her pistol again, scanning for the source of the sound Mar Owens (9:29 pm): it's ahead - a drilling sound. Multiple drilling sounds. Instant Fox (9:29 pm): Yeah... I thought it would be pretty small but guess not. Comanche (9:30 pm): Yeah. I'm sure she's fine though, but man, this thing must be miles deep keeping on moving Talon (9:32 pm): to herself mining... Talon (9:32 pm): she proceeds cautiously towards the drilling sound Reni (9:34 pm): mumbles something in her sleep Mar Owens (9:34 pm): the tunnel mouth is much smaller, only allowing for a human to crouch as they continue...and it ends at an opening that looks out over a much larger crystal cavern, with robot worker drones drilling and carving away at smaller crystal deposits as they work around a much, much larger central power crystal that is perhaps only half-unearthed Mar Owens (9:35 pm): this larger power crystal shines with rainbow light, shimmering with a power all its own Talon (9:35 pm): (hwee. XD) Reni (9:35 pm): legtwitch Reni (9:36 pm): (what is that episode of SatAM? that first Uncle Chuck one?) Comanche (9:36 pm): still walking down deeper into the cave Mar Owens (9:36 pm): (yes, the first one with Uncle Chuck/Sir Charles) Reni (9:36 pm): (yeah...reminded of that just then) Mar Owens (9:36 pm): (and yes, this should be reminding you of that :P) Reni (9:37 pm): (heh) Reni (9:37 pm): (called it. smug) Talon (9:37 pm): (well, I'm thinking of the central chamber of the power crystal cave in EC XD) Bernard has left at 9:37 pm Mar Owens (9:38 pm): Crystal crab: slinks out of a pool and stands in the middle of the tunnel, looking on eyestalks up at Comanche and Instant with curiousity...and a bit of guarded interest Reni (9:38 pm): (EC...does that stand for Egg Carrier?) Talon (9:38 pm): (Emerald Chat.) Talon (9:38 pm): (the AIM group.) Reni (9:38 pm): 9Oh) Reni (9:38 pm): (heh ok) Mar Owens (9:38 pm): (I've introduced the power crystal concept in other RPs too) Comanche (9:38 pm): ...what's this dumb thing? keeps walking Bernard has entered at 9:40 pm Reni (9:40 pm): (heh) Mar Owens (9:40 pm): Crab: stays where it is...watches...watches...and as soon as Comanche gets close enough...SNAP! Bernard has left at 9:40 pm Mar Owens (9:40 pm): Crab: it grabs onto his foot Mar Owens (9:40 pm): Crab: and won't let go Reni (9:40 pm): (XD @ crab) Mar Owens (9:41 pm): it looks like the robots below are mostly regular robot drones, though there are some much more well-made looking robots that look like they are based on humanoid creatures, like cats, rats, skunks, and others... Comanche (9:43 pm): SHAKE HIS FOOT Getoff! Instant Fox (9:43 pm): (XD) Reni (9:43 pm): (XD) Talon (9:43 pm): Would these guys be affected by an EMP? Cause she's palming one such grenade, considering it... Mar Owens (9:43 pm): Crab: somehow, you might imagine the Chicken Dance being played as the crab stubbornly hangs onto his prize Mar Owens (9:44 pm): they probably would be...however, there's something about those other humanoid robots that seems simultaneously almost too familiar, too lifelike, and zombielike at the same time...it's a bit unnerving, really Mar Owens (9:44 pm): not to mention with this many power crystals around, who knows what might happen? Talon (9:45 pm): ... Talon (9:45 pm): And she beats a hasty and quiet retreat, heading back the way she came Comanche (9:46 pm): Get off of me dammit! tries to scrape it off with his other foot Comanche (9:46 pm): Talon, halp @@ Talon (9:46 pm): We need to get out of here. Comanche (9:47 pm): Why, what did you find? Mar Owens (9:47 pm): Crab: tenaciously swings to the other side away from Com's scraping foot Talon (9:47 pm): And she bends down, attempting to pry the crab's claw open Robots, mining for power crystals. Mar Owens (9:47 pm): meanwhile, another robot shows up in that cavern...one that is entirely unlike the others Comanche (9:47 pm): ...lovely. Can't we catch a +!%% break? Mar Owens (9:48 pm): large, with two heavy arms hanging from the sides of its massive hover pod, and a sensor cluster in its small but serviceable head...it has no legs, only the large arms, tipped with massive claws and equipped with various integrated gun barrels Mar Owens (9:48 pm): Crab: at Talon's approach, the crab releases its grip and flees eeek! and into a pool of water it goes! Talon (9:49 pm): the caver with insty, tally, and commy? Comanche (9:50 pm): ...thanks. Kirby of the stars (9:50 pm): (XD@ Crab yelling eek!) Mar Owens (9:51 pm): no, it's back in the cave with the other robots - I'm just doing a bit of a meanwhile with it Mar Owens (9:51 pm): ???: Clear the area around the large central crystal! We must get it at any cost! Reni (9:52 pm): (gleep) Reni (9:52 pm): (forgot this while trying to troubleshoot my printer) Instant Fox (9:52 pm): Let's go warn the others then Mar Owens (9:52 pm): the robot's deep booming voice, however, might carry down somehow to those guys @ Talon, Commy and Instant Instant Fox (9:52 pm): (Good thing you were sleep XD) Reni (9:53 pm): (leaves that for later and gets back to this) Reni* (9:53 pm): (heh yeah) Comanche (9:53 pm): ...yeah, before whatever that is gets up here starts to move quickly to the main camp Reni (9:54 pm): and how far DOES that voice carry? back to the others or not? Talon (9:54 pm): Move, move move! and she breaks into a swift dash back towards the others Mar Owens (9:54 pm): ???: We must have this crystal ready to power the new mechanizer plant! That will increase the efficiency of our operations in King City! Instant Fox (9:55 pm): Hurries after the others Mar Owens (9:55 pm): it doesn't carry all the way to the others at the front of the cave Reni (9:55 pm): (ah ok) Reni (9:56 pm): still sleeping, but antsilly, as if sensing the tension Reni (9:56 pm): legtwitch more Reni (9:56 pm): mumble Reni (9:57 pm): turn onto back...still curled Kirby of the stars (9:57 pm): (Hmm Corona city sounds better) Comanche (9:57 pm): (brb) Mar Owens (9:57 pm): (hmm oo that does sound better) Mar Owens (9:57 pm): he said Corona City then Reni (9:57 pm): (o.o Ohh I like0 Talon (9:58 pm): ... that's not good. and she continues her dash - can has group? Mar Owens (9:58 pm): (and it's more alliterative!) Mar Owens (9:58 pm): can has Reni (9:58 pm): aaand...turns back over to face the wall again Dad...iee Mar Owens (9:58 pm): gets up quickly What's going on? Mar Owens (9:59 pm): seems like he wasn't sleeping Reni (9:59 pm): legtwitchspasmkick! Talon (9:59 pm): Robots. Mining power crystals - they've unearthed a large one and are going to use it in a "mechanizer plant". Reni (10:00 pm): eartwitch-suddenly-awake Robots?! Where? Reni (10:00 pm): on her feet Reni (10:01 pm): Lemme at 'em! Mar Owens (10:01 pm): Mechanizer plant...his eyebrows furrow in an angry expression Then we have to stop them from getting that crystal. Arikyrenne (10:01 pm): (sorry@lack of RPing here, just busy with something atm) Mar Owens (10:01 pm): Mechanizers are the machines that change people into robots. Mar Owens (10:01 pm): (NPs) Kirby of the stars (10:01 pm): Sleep still nothing can wake him up! Reni (10:02 pm): HC: grabs her tail, attempting to hold her back Chao! Comanche (10:02 pm): (back) Instant Fox (10:02 pm): (Weba) Reni (10:03 pm): (hmmm...scratch that last one...not feesible) Reni (10:03 pm): (cute...but not feesible0 Mar Owens (10:03 pm): (and what with Reni's father being mechanized, and her nearly so, that might get her upset even more) Talon (10:04 pm): Kirby! Wake up! Mar Owens (10:04 pm): Hmm...Kirby! Someone is making off with all the food! Reni (10:04 pm): (XDXD @ food remark) Instant Fox (10:04 pm): (XD) Reni (10:05 pm): pacing now Well what are we waiting for?!! We HAVE to STOP this! aggitated Comanche (10:06 pm): Talon, how many were there? Reni (10:06 pm): picks up HC and sets her in her usual spot8 Talon* (10:06 pm): A few dozen smaller drones, as well as several that I suspect were once organic. Kirby of the stars (10:06 pm): Wakes up Were? Kirby of the stars (10:07 pm): (Latenss bah) Mar Owens (10:07 pm): ...this could get complicated, then. Reni (10:07 pm): I don't care how many there were! I c'n take 'em! Mar Owens (10:07 pm): (no probs, that's just fine :P) Mar Owens (10:07 pm): Even if one of them is your father? Reni (10:07 pm): stops Reni (10:08 pm): Well...umm...I...um...agitation grows Talon (10:09 pm): In any case, if we are going to stop them we have to move quickly. Kirby of the stars (10:09 pm): Blinks he only could gather up lot's of robots and other thigns Reni (10:10 pm): can't resist a smirk and a smart remark Quickly?! That's my middle name! Reni (10:11 pm): Jus' point the way so's I c'n lay the ol' smackdown on Vor! Mar Owens (10:11 pm): Then let's do it. We'll have to try to avoid harming the mechanized ones if we can, but it may be possible to stun or restrain them without actually hurting them. Comanche (10:12 pm): Right, let's try and do that... ~8 disruptors left, should be enough to deal with most of the robots....~ Reni (10:12 pm): (Do I detect the potential for emotional trauma? @ Reni? >:P ) Talon (10:13 pm): (oh yeah I needta get her ammo count. One seccie!) Kirby of the stars (10:13 pm): (BRB) Mar Owens (10:13 pm): How many guards were there? Reni (10:13 pm): chomping at the bit, so to speak Reni (10:14 pm): Come on, come on, come ON!

XD Talon (10:17 pm): so does this mean I has leeway on it? Mar Owens (10:19 pm): there were no guards Talon (10:19 pm): None. Mar Owens (10:19 pm): only the deep booming voice that conveniently informed them of things Mar Owens (10:19 pm): however...that may lead her to question WHY there were no guards...

Filthy, low-grade, inefficient animals like you do not tell me, Baetis, General to the Warlord, what to think or do! Reni (10:20 pm): Grrrooowwlll... Reni (10:21 pm): Rev...ohnoes Mar Owens (10:21 pm): Baetis: holds up the hedgehog by the head, lifting him off the ground And what if I don't release him? AlloyRabbit (10:21 pm): (Matthew Ebel - I Blame The Spy o.o) Mar Owens (10:21 pm): Baetis: How will you punish me? Do you truly believe that a pack of mere animals can defeat one of the most powerful Units in the Drone army? Reni (10:22 pm): (or not @ rev...not the right place for it yet) Reni (10:22 pm): fistclench, teethgrit Talon (10:22 pm): You don't know what you're dealing with. Palms a grenade and presses it to the chamber of her gun, keeping her aim on that sensor "head" Mar Owens (10:23 pm): Baetis: Likewise! Mar Owens (10:24 pm): Enough talk! If you're really that eager for the blood of animals, then I'll come down there and stuff it down your throat myself! and he leaps forward, off the tunnel mouth and falling into the cavern below IGNITION! Comanche (10:24 pm): stands, aiming his weapon Let's go! Reni (10:24 pm): dangerous voice, ears positively FLAT I said....PUT....HIM....DOWN.....T______T rev Mar Owens (10:24 pm): he is surrounded by a supernova glow effect, and he dons the omni-suit! Clad in orange and blue energy armor, he races forward toward the robot, seeming not to care what it has in its hands Kirby of the stars (10:25 pm): Jumpo through the motuh of the cave Kirby of the stars (10:25 pm): (mouth) Mar Owens* (10:25 pm): Baetis: ...it cannot grin, and yet there is a definite snide sneer to his voice as he says Come and make me put him down, little girl. Mar Owens (10:25 pm): the mouth of the cave does have a steep incline under it - it can be slid down, if done carefully Talon (10:26 pm): Fires her shot, just one, charged with an unusual amount of energy - this is the payload of a grenade, electric plasma. Reni (10:26 pm): Oh I WILL alright...Growling releases the rev, and goes shooting in Reni (10:26 pm): (or not XD) Reni (10:27 pm): (hmmm...better idea) Talon (10:27 pm): (o.o;; sorry? XD) Reni (10:27 pm): (nevermind..I'm just changing my mind a lot XD) Reni (10:28 pm): spindashes down that incline...is there a...anything to launch from?) Reni* (10:28 pm): * Mar Owens (10:28 pm): (don't worry @ changing your mind...you may get a better shot at this than you think) Crimson has left at 10:28 pm Mar Owens (10:29 pm): Baetis: lets himself get hit with the shot, and a field of shocking blue electricity forms around him Talon (10:29 pm): (... I literally said "d'oh" there.) Kirby of the stars (10:30 pm): (XD) Reni (10:30 pm): (XD) Kirby of the stars (10:30 pm): Was about to burning tackle him but doesn't think that's a good idea oo Reni (10:30 pm): (ok hmmm...) Mar Owens (10:31 pm): Baetis: Did you really think your former tactics would work again? Foolish animals! The Warlord has been watching you...and has built new Units to counter your abilities. Reni (10:31 pm): launches off of a ramped crystal into the air Mar Owens (10:31 pm): (yup, that works Vi) Reni (10:31 pm): ball of enraged purple spines, incomming Reni (10:31 pm): (k) Talon (10:32 pm): (17/18 (17/18) (3); 7/7 (2); 30/30C) Mew (10:32 pm): Ari: !! jumps/slides down as well, still in tigress form, tense as she prepares herself for battle (wasn't really planning on RPing tonight, but let's see what I can get in^^; ) Mar Owens (10:33 pm): Baetis: ...including me! throwing aside the hedgehog drone, he flies forward with surprising agility, sucker-punching Mar right in the gut and blasting him with several guns in that same arm at the same time - the force of which sends Mar crashing into the wall, his armor flaring from the various bullets that it is barely repelling Reni (10:33 pm): Little girl THIS, you beast! Comanche (10:34 pm): ! Mar, are you alright? fires a shot at Baetis when he gets a clear one Kirby of the stars (10:35 pm): Mar! Mew (10:35 pm): gives a small cry as she tries putting up a psi shield to block any more bullets from hitting Mar as she runs towards where he crashed! Mew (10:35 pm): Ari: Kirby of the stars** (10:35 pm): Jumps in the air transforms into a fireball and heads straight for Baetis! Mar Owens (10:35 pm): Baetis: the electric field reacts again to Com's shot, disabling it before it even hits his armor - and when he sees Reni coming, he stops firing at Mar, and turns toward her Quite a little spitfire, aren't you? Mew (10:35 pm): (A wild Mew appeared! XD; ) Mar Owens (10:35 pm): (XDXD) Kirby of the stars (10:36 pm): (XD) Reni (10:36 pm): (XD) Instant Fox (10:36 pm): (XD) Comanche (10:36 pm): (XD) Mew (10:36 pm): (too bad Jenna wasn't here XD;; ) Reni (10:37 pm): You better believe it...Beastus or whatever yer name is... Comanche (10:37 pm): +%! Reni (10:37 pm): (XD) Mar Owens** (10:37 pm): Baetis: waits until both Kirby and Reni are in close, and then he spins - his head stays in place, but his body spins around rapidly, his arms swinging dangerously at them both Talon (10:37 pm): Her turn to leap and slide down into the room, pulling out a little silver orb similar to a grenade and snapping it at the shield - she cannot reclaim the grenade's charge since it's already gone off... but there's other tricks she has. Mar Owens (10:38 pm): Ugh...coughs I have to stop underestimating these robots...starts pushing himself back to his feet Talon (10:38 pm): She can try grounding it. Reni (10:38 pm): punted backward Mar Owens (10:38 pm): he's moving a little faster than he probably should, after such a hit... Reni (10:39 pm): but due to spinning spines, relatively unharmed Talon (10:39 pm): (When the World - Gamma Ray) Comanche (10:40 pm): ~Grr, what the +$!! else do I have....~ pulls his KA-BAR knife, which is ceramic, and throws it at Baetis's "head" Mar Owens (10:40 pm): (and yeah, too bad Jenna wasn't here ^^; I have to come up with another Pokemon for her to catch) Mew (10:40 pm): lowers the psi shield for now since Mar's no longer being fired at, and goes to help him up...Are you sure you're okay? o.o; Comanche (10:40 pm): (Yoko Kanno/Tim Jensen - Run Rabbit Junk) Reni (10:40 pm): lands some ways away, and prepares to dash at Beatis Mew (10:40 pm): Ari: (arg XD; ) Mar Owens** (10:41 pm): growls a little I'm fine! sounds a bit frustrated, as he transforms his arms into a wall to keep the robot drones that are trying to sneak up on Ari and Mar away from them and the others Reni (10:41 pm): HC: just trying to hang on, lodged deep within Reni's quills Mar Owens (10:41 pm): Robot drones: yup, they're getting involved - some are the mechanized people, others are the regular robot drones Mar Owens (10:42 pm): Baetis: A knife?! truly laughs as he stops his spin, catches the knife between two fingers, and flicks it back at Comanche You would have to throw it a lot harder than that to pierce this shell! what's the effect of that silver orb? Talon (10:42 pm): so yeah, that silver orb tries to draw in and ground the electric shield. Talon (10:43 pm): (Charge attractor. She carries 3. o.ob up from one after Homeworld.) Mar Owens (10:43 pm): Baetis: it seems to be working - but the orb is starting to get overcharged, the shield puts out a lot of juice apparently...and he has readings that indicate he's got a very powerful power crystal charging him Mar Owens (10:43 pm): (ah, okay oob thanks) Mew (10:44 pm): takes a step back, a bit surprised at the growl, though spins around to see the drones We have to be careful with the mechanized ones! Comanche (10:44 pm): reaches out to grab it as it hurls at him; it nearly flies out of his left hand, but he hangs onto it. His hand winds up cut pretty badly by it as he fires at the Robot drones Reni (10:44 pm): runing around, dodging the mechanized people, while destroying whatever regular drones she can Mew (10:44 pm): (...and brb, I'm going to switch alts XD; ) Talon (10:44 pm): (she got mad at me for not having more to deal with electricity. >.>; XD) Mar Owens (10:44 pm): (okay Ari ^^) Arikyrenne has entered at 10:44 pm Kirby of the stars (10:45 pm): Punted back now dodging Drones and people Arikyrenne (10:45 pm): (or at least pull this one in...there we go^^ ) Mar Owens (10:45 pm): Regular drones: they have drills for hands, as well as rock-cutting saws and fusion cutters - they're a little dangerous! Kirby of the stars (10:45 pm): (Weba and Back I was hungry) Instant Fox (10:45 pm): (Weba) Reni (10:45 pm): (o.o @ sudden wind gust outside) Mar Owens (10:45 pm): Mechanized workers: have no real built-in weaponry, though they do have metallic claws, and they have various tools as well Arikyrenne (10:45 pm): (thnx^^...and weba ) Mar Owens (10:46 pm): Baetis: aims one arm at Talon, and opens fire with two gun barrels that fire shockbeams - the other arm is aiming at Arikyrenne, a multi-barrelled autocannon revving up Comanche (10:46 pm): for the record, he aimed at the regular drones, and fired 3 shots Talon (10:46 pm): She turns her attention to the drones and mechanized workers, firing shot after shot into the new swarm... these bullets are charged with the normal amount of disruptive energy. (12/18 (12/18) (3); 7/7 (2); 30/30C) Talon (10:47 pm): (Shockbeams like the hovercycles in the loggers fight?) Instant Fox (10:47 pm): Generally hanging back, trying to think of a plan to take it on Reni (10:48 pm): dodge, dodge, swerve, paff, dodge... Reni (10:49 pm): reorients, mid-run, on Baetis Reni (10:49 pm): spindash! Arikyrenne (10:49 pm): looking back and forth, busy sending some psi blasts out at approaching drones, though manages to catch Baetis' movement out of the corner of her eye as she quickly turns her attention to hastily putting up a psi shield between herself and it! @.@! Mar Owens (10:49 pm): (yes, like those - except a bit heavier) Mar Owens (10:50 pm): Regular drones: have minimal armor plating and can't stand up to an attack, so they start falling quickly Mar Owens (10:51 pm): Baetis: fires a few autocannon slugs at Ari, even as he lets Reni come right at him - take your shot, Reni! Reni (10:52 pm): LAUNCH SPIN NOW YES! Kirby of the stars (10:52 pm): Burning tackles some Drones Mar Owens (10:52 pm): Regular drone: however, one of them sneaks up on Instant while he's hanging back, and tries to go for him with a drill! Mar Owens (10:52 pm): Baetis: is hit by Reni's spin attack!...and ouch, that's some heavy armor! Comanche (10:53 pm): turning to aim for it after downing a fourth Instant, look out! goes to fire and.... oops, CLICK Comanche (10:53 pm): quickly goes about chaning to his normal clip Reni (10:53 pm): Rebounds, lands, somewhat dazed Mar Owens (10:53 pm): Ari! shoves the drones near him back, and then moves the walls he's made in front of her, taking the brunt of the shots off of her Comanche (10:53 pm): We need to retreat, this is not going well! Reni (10:54 pm): rub head Owww... Instant Fox (10:54 pm): Good thing drills are easy to hear! Mar Owens (10:54 pm): Baetis: Pathetic little girl. takes the autocannon arm off of Ari, and fires purple tangler rounds at Reni and Comanche - these are globs of purple gunk that restrict the target if they hit Talon (10:54 pm): Drops back and a crackling blue shield forms around her, deflecting the first few, but the shield doesn't hold long and flickers out, the next shot grazing her arm and coursing over her... Perhaps surprisingly, she doesn't scream, despite how painful that would be Instant Fox (10:54 pm): *Hops forward and turns, firing a blast of energy at the drone Mar Owens (10:54 pm): Regular drill drone: driiiilllll~ Mar Owens (10:54 pm): Regular driller: but gets hit xX Mar Owens (10:55 pm): Baetis: pours on more shockbeam onto Talon as he laughs Burn, burn, bleed and DIE! Reni (10:55 pm): Yipe! jumps back, one round hits the ground, and now she's running again Kirby of the stars (10:55 pm): Blows a steady stream of Fire at Baetis Reni (10:56 pm): but not doing all that well....she's slower...distracted by that headache...8 Mar Owens* (10:56 pm): That's it! sends out energy pods that fire rapid bursts at Baetis, adding to the fire that Baetis is getting hit with too Instant Fox (10:56 pm): ~Maybe!~ Tries firing a ball of energy at one of the power crystals next to Baetis Kirby of the stars (10:56 pm): (LITE THE FIRE!!) Talon (10:56 pm): Twiching, palming a fiery, explosive grenade... they're normally orange-hot, but this is gleaming white as she chucks it for the offending arm Reni (10:57 pm): hit with a glob ohnoes! Reni (10:57 pm): ACK! Mar Owens (10:57 pm): Baetis: and the grounder grenade breaks as it is overcharged, the electric field snapping into place as Baetis swings the arm from Talon, and grabs at Kirby with his clawed hand Mar Owens (10:57 pm): Power crystal: gets struck with a ball of energy...and it absorbs it, looking like it's shining brighter Kirby of the stars (10:57 pm): Jumps to avoid then tries a Burning Tackle! Mar Owens (10:58 pm): Power crystal: it seems to have inward-facing spiky light green crystals Reni (10:58 pm): (hee...we've seen THAT before! @ absorbing it) Comanche (10:58 pm): Talon, you alright? He's not been hit by anythign in awhile.... Reni (10:58 pm): foot stuck to floor! Reni (10:59 pm): Gah! Megamuck! Reni (10:59 pm): I hate this stuff! Mar Owens (10:59 pm): Baetis: the electric field doesn't seem to work on the slower-moving Burning Tackle - Baetis gets hit, the metal armor glowing brighter, but it is still quite stable as he grabs at Kirby again, trying to shoot him with shockbeams Kirby of the stars (10:59 pm): (Jenna: A MegaMuk? Were? oo) Reni (10:59 pm): sitting duck...er...hedgehog Reni (10:59 pm): (XDXD) Instant Fox (10:59 pm): ~Agh well that was useless! Guess I have to get up there~ Mar Owens (10:59 pm): grenade impact - gets hit with it, though the field absorbs most of the brunt Instant Fox (10:59 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (11:00 pm): Power crystal: still shining brighter Mar Owens (11:00 pm): (okay, it's about time for me to roll out...having fun with this battle? Things interesting?) Kirby of the stars (11:00 pm): Pushed back by the shockwaves into the shining Power Crystal Mar Owens (11:00 pm): (want to kick his robutt?) Kirby of the stars (11:00 pm): (Yes) Comanche (11:00 pm): (Yeah @ all questions ) Kirby of the stars (11:00 pm): (lol Robutt) Instant Fox (11:00 pm): (XD) Reni (11:00 pm): (yeah) Arikyrenne (11:01 pm): had blinked as the bullets suddenly stop hitting her shield, and thanked Mar, btw (sorry @.@; @just having a hard time keeping up with everything) Talon (11:01 pm): Gasping for breath from the electric pain, but nods, far from beat Mar Owens (11:01 pm): (no problems, just do the best you can Ari) Talon (11:01 pm): (Talon's ticked.) Talon (11:01 pm): (She wants missiles.) Talon (11:01 pm): (I have firmly told her no.) Reni (11:01 pm): (XDXD) Mar Owens (11:02 pm): Baetis: ...you want to see fire? I will show you flames to burn your bones! suddenly spins around, and aims both arms at the group, jets of scorching flame leaping out at them Reni (11:02 pm): pull, pull.... Mar Owens (11:02 pm): Kirby, bumping into that crystal releases a jolt of electricity into your body - other crystals of the same type seem to glow in synergy with the one bumped into, and they all glow with energy Reni (11:03 pm): but bounces back when she reaches the end of the elasticity of the glob Reni (11:03 pm): tethered by ONE FOOT how annoying Mar Owens (11:03 pm): Watch out! pushes forward and uses wall fields to absorb a lot of the flame, but his armor is glowing brightly from the dangerous heat intake Mar Owens (11:04 pm): and he can't stop some of the flames from going toward all of the others Talon (11:04 pm): She slaps a pair of icy grenades to the floor, their blast spiking up into sharp ice spikes to take some of the heat off Mar. Pun very much intended. Mar Owens (11:05 pm): that seems to help, but it does nothing for his energy levels - the armor is being drained by all of this Kirby of the stars (11:05 pm): Shocked! Not again! But beats back the flames with his own Comanche (11:05 pm): sees them coming and turns his back while shielding his face, but his left side gets... toasty. While his clothing takes much the blow, he grunts as it burns through in a few spots. The biggest issue here is he drops his gun while reloading it. Fumble! Jam! Mar Owens (11:05 pm): (okay, I have to get going - however, I want to end on a cliffhanger, and we can finish the battle next time oob) Reni (11:05 pm): (Aww) Reni (11:06 pm): (and Reni's stuck >:P ) Talon (11:06 pm): (I have something tomorrow - lemme look) Kirby of the stars (11:06 pm): (Dang have him explode the floor or something >=/ ) Mar Owens (11:07 pm): Baetis: laughs cruelly as he sends the scorching flames at them all, uncaring that he is also hitting robot drones in the process - not the mechanized ones so far, but they won't be too far behind Inefficient animals! I will bring your heads to the Warlord as trophies to my prowess! I will see this world burn! I will- Mar Owens (11:07 pm): he is interrupted, however, as a grappling hook lances out of a nearby tunnel and neatly wraps around one of his shoulders Reni (11:07 pm): Oh blow it out your audio receptors Beast Face Talon (11:07 pm): (oh wait, no, Naxx part 3 is on Saturday, I'm good tomorrow.) Instant Fox (11:08 pm): ( :0) Mar Owens (11:08 pm): Baetis: What the- Reni (11:08 pm): annoyedly stranding there, dodging projectiles to the best of her ability Kirby of the stars* (11:08 pm): (=O@ Grappling Hook) Mar Owens (11:08 pm): and suddenly MISSILES Talon (11:09 pm): (though I might be later - dinner with the parents) Reni (11:09 pm): (The cavalry's here!) Reni (11:09 pm): (late as usual) Talon (11:09 pm): (... hadjdsgh) Mar Owens (11:09 pm): a figure is stepping out of the dark tunnel, missiles pouring out in pairs from round shoulders Reni (11:09 pm): Um...guys? Little help here? Arikyrenne (11:10 pm): !!...turns to try to see who it is Mar Owens (11:10 pm): Baetis: gets hit with the barrage, the missiles striking the electric field but exploding with enough force to weaken it, and even put some holes in the armor! What is this?! Mar Owens (11:10 pm): ???: It's payback, robot. Kirby of the stars (11:10 pm): Looks over to the new figure Instant Fox (11:11 pm): takes the opportunity to make his way over to Reni and cut the gunk off with his sword Hold still... Reni (11:11 pm): looks as well...still trying to dodge projectiles Talon (11:11 pm): Looks over at the newcomer Mar Owens (11:11 pm): the figure steps out of the darkness...in angular orange and blue armor, the large shoulders spinning as they spit the last of the missiles out at Baetis, the grappling hook wire extending from one of his articulated arms Mar Owens (11:12 pm): the light catches the V-shaped black visor, and the helmet spike is angular, straight, but still pointing slightly backward into the air Reni (11:12 pm): ...thanks Comanche (11:12 pm): ...woah. Kirby of the stars (11:12 pm): eyes widen oo Reni (11:12 pm): and blinks @ newcommer Arikyrenne (11:12 pm): !!...gasp and jawdrop, taking a step back in surprise Mar Owens (11:13 pm): the armor is more like a mecha suit - though a small one, only about seven feet tall, but packed with power levels augmented by power crystals, as Talon could probably detect Mar Owens (11:13 pm): Baetis: The interloper! Kirby of the stars (11:13 pm): (Newcomer: Interloper!) Instant Fox (11:13 pm): Now watching the newcomer like everyone else Mar Owens (11:14 pm): he is stunned as well, but finally articulates ...Tergonaut?! Mar Owens (11:14 pm): (and we shall end about there :P) Talon (11:14 pm): Smirks under her mask, taking aim at Baetis again Comanche (11:14 pm): (...The synth hook in Rihanna's Shut Up and Drive sounds just like Blue Monday by New Order o.o) Comanche (11:15 pm): (Don't ask why I was listening to Rihanna) Mar Owens (11:15 pm): (pfft XP) Kirby of the stars (11:15 pm): (Cause she's hot duh) Reni (11:15 pm): (hmm) Mar Owens (11:15 pm): (XDXD) Reni (11:15 pm): (nice entry) Rapidfire has left at 11:15 pm Kirby of the stars (11:15 pm): (I listen to Rihanna oo) Talon (11:16 pm): (I can probably be here by 7ish central tomorrow - that's 6 your time, Tergy.) Mar Owens (11:16 pm): (but anyway! oo hope that spices things up a bit ^^ however oo sorry if you didn't get a chance to do much with Reni, Vi, you were wanting to do something emotional with her...although probably best that she stayed focused for now ^^; ) Reni (11:16 pm): (heh) Talon (11:16 pm): (grenades open the brackets) Reni (11:16 pm): (ok) Mar Owens (11:16 pm): OOC Comanche (11:16 pm): OOC Reni (11:16 pm): (I'm sure the time will come....0 AlloyRabbit (11:16 pm): o.o Arikyrenne (11:16 pm): OOC

Kirby of the stars (9:13 pm): I heard of him from but I think this is the first time I've seen him in person Talon (9:14 pm): Smirking under her mask... then glances along the grapple line to Baetis, then to the absorbing crystals... an idea forming in her head VioletWhirlwind (9:16 pm): (otay...is back) VioletWhirlwind (9:18 pm): o.o VioletWhirlwind (9:19 pm): (hold on...gotta relog) VioletWhirlwind has left at 9:19 pm Reni has entered at 9:19 pm Reni (9:19 pm): (back) Mar Owens (9:19 pm): (weba) Mar Owens (9:20 pm): Tergonaut: but then, his armor sparks, and he stops moving as the suit shudders Mar Owens (9:20 pm): Tergonaut: ...

Reni (9:26 pm): running again, a small, persistant peice of the goo still attached to her foot, but it's not tethering her to the ground anymore Reni (9:26 pm): Great...now I'm gonna have goo stuck to my leg for who knows how long...it has a nice color though... Mar Owens (9:27 pm): Robot drones: there are still some of them around, and they are trying to get Reni, as well as Kirby and Instant Reni (9:27 pm): It...matches me. Reni (9:27 pm): o.o! boing! Mar Owens (9:28 pm): Baetis: What? Pathetic! shakes off the grapple from Tergonaut, but is hit by one from Talon You may have done some minor structural damage, but it will take more than a surprise entrance to stop me!

Reni (9:32 pm): paff, paff, dodge, bounce, paff Talon (9:33 pm): We'll have to fix that. Her breastplate begins to crackle with power Kirby of the stars (9:33 pm): (Woman Power?@ Talon?)

Kirby of the stars (9:34 pm): (Sorry) Kirby of the stars (9:34 pm): (There was a joke in there that got lost) Mar Owens (9:35 pm): Baetis: aims an arm at Reni, and opens fire with twin shockbeam cannons, strafing the ground around her with them Talon (9:37 pm): Reni!

Mar Owens (9:38 pm): (Tachi: I'm invisible! ^^^) Instant Fox (9:38 pm): (XD) Comanche (9:38 pm): helping Talon! What do you want to do here?! Reni (9:38 pm): (XD @ high pitched OOC) Talon (9:39 pm): Those particular crystals absorb energy - if we can get him in contact with one it should weaken him. Comanche (9:40 pm): Gotcha! quite strong, giving it his all Arikyrenne (9:41 pm): moves over towards where Talon and others are, ready to do what she can to help as well! Kirby of the stars (9:41 pm): Nods Talon (9:41 pm): (that "rest of you" includes Mar. c.c) Reni (9:42 pm): (waiting for an answer to my question) Talon (9:42 pm): (electric.) Talon (9:42 pm): (painful, but Talon survived them.) Reni (9:43 pm): (ah ok gotcha) Talon (9:43 pm): (so I don't think deadly, at least, not in 2-3 shots.) Reni (9:43 pm): ...and heading directly into the other Reni (9:43 pm): Ahhhh! >.< Reni (9:43 pm): hedgehog down! Mar Owens (9:44 pm): moves, and transforms his arms into long robotic grappling claws that he uses to grab Baetis from the other side Mar Owens (9:44 pm): (naw - these were heavier shockbeam cannons, but they are basically only painful and debilitating - the robots use them to stun targets so they can be captured and mechanized) Mar Owens (9:44 pm): (so yeah, basically you got it already XD;; ) Reni (9:45 pm): twitch, twitch...serious...PAIN Talon (9:45 pm): ! ... Now! and her breastplate surges with force as she swings towards one of the absorbing crystals - that's everyone's cue Kirby of the stars (9:45 pm): Burning Tackles! Mar Owens (9:46 pm): heaves! Reni (9:46 pm): HC: had jumped clear just in time and is now hovering concernedly nearby Mar Owens (9:46 pm): Baetis: twists, and hums loudly as his hover generator goes to full power, resisting the pull Arikyrenne (9:46 pm): uses her psi powers to try to push Baetis towards the crystal! ><! Comanche (9:47 pm): Heaves! Mar Owens (9:47 pm): Baetis: You...animals...are quite tenacious...but you really think that some rocks are going to... Instant Fox (9:47 pm): Ho's Kirby of the stars (9:47 pm): (XD) Reni (9:48 pm): spazztwitch Talon (9:48 pm): (... facepalm) Mar Owens (9:48 pm): (XD; ) Comanche (9:48 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (9:48 pm): (Tachikoma: Ho ho ho. nNn ) Reni (9:48 pm): (XDXD slow XD) Reni (9:49 pm): (only JUST got the joke) Instant Fox (9:49 pm): (XD) Talon (9:50 pm): Reni! Reni (9:51 pm): twitch Owwwww...

Reni (9:53 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (9:53 pm): (and your last save was before the battle) Mar Owens (9:53 pm): (so now you have to do it ALL over again!) Reni (9:53 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (9:53 pm): (Tergonaut: doesn't show up this time due to the party doing something different) Arikyrenne (9:53 pm): grunts a bit and closes one eye as she tries to strengthen the force of the psi energy, still working with the others to pull the bot! (and nooo XD ) Reni (9:54 pm): (XD) Reni (9:54 pm): spazztwitches again and collapses back to the ground Instant Fox (9:54 pm): (XD) Talon (9:55 pm): Reni! Kirby! Hit him! NOW! grunts with effort, her breastplate once again cracking with power and boosting her strength Mar Owens (9:55 pm): Crab: spots Reni's foot! Mar Owens (9:55 pm): Crab: scurry scurry scurry GRAB Reni (9:55 pm): not in any condition to be hitting anything right now Kirby of the stars (9:56 pm): Fireball tackles Mar Owens (9:56 pm): Crab: and, strangely, the crystals mounted in its body glow with an eerie light as Reni's muscles start working again! Reni (9:56 pm): YOW! reflex-fling @ crab Talon (9:56 pm): (This week's experiment... FAILED.) Comanche (9:56 pm): trying to out pull her, both to one up her and to actually help Reni (9:56 pm): (or not XD) Kirby of the stars (9:56 pm): (Kirby of the stars (12:45 am): Burning Tackles! <--Ignore that okay?) Mar Owens (9:56 pm): (sorry I didn't respond earlier, Kirby, to the burning tackle - I'm counting it with all of the other efforts oo) Kirby of the stars (9:56 pm): (It's okay wasn't my que on that one) Kirby of the stars (9:57 pm): (I'm saying ignore that one from earlier) Mar Owens (9:57 pm): (okay - I'll take the more recent one into account then) Mar Owens (9:58 pm): Crab: flung away! But Reni still gets a boost to her system Mar Owens (9:58 pm): which is necessary if she wants to help save that hedgehog drone from being toasted by the wave of bullets Baetis is shooting at it! Mar Owens (9:59 pm): Baetis: laughs maniacally as he unleashes this storm of bullets Reni (9:59 pm): O.O! NO! YOu can't! runs and attempts to shove it out of the way Mar Owens (10:01 pm): Reni barely pushes the hedgehog drone out of the way before the bullets eat up the ground that they were just on! Phew, quick save! Mar Owens (10:02 pm): Baetis: ...and with an inhuman cry of fury, he shakes, and the group sends him flying into one of the nearby green absorbing crystals! Comanche (10:05 pm): ...did that do it? Reni (10:05 pm): getting up from her tackle-save Mar Owens (10:05 pm): Baetis: and his entire body is enveloped by green energy as the crystal he hits shocks him - and the other green crystals glow and synchronize with the one by Baetis Reni (10:06 pm): HC: float-run-catch-up with her Mar Owens (10:06 pm): Baetis: starts gibbering, unable to control his reactions as his head spins, his arms twist against his body, and light pours out of his seams and the holes punched into him earlier Reni (10:06 pm): O.O blink Comanche (10:06 pm): shields his eyes given it is probably bright Kirby of the stars (10:06 pm): Oo Talon (10:07 pm): Take cover! Comanche (10:07 pm): (Baetis: You cannot... destroy my... destiiiiny~) Kirby of the stars (10:07 pm): Dives behind a mining cart Kirby of the stars (10:07 pm): (XD) Talon (10:07 pm): and she does just that, releasing the energy rope and ducking behind a large crystal Comanche (10:07 pm): takes cover as well Arikyrenne (10:08 pm): o0...had released the psi energy when Baetis went flying, and now takes cover behind a nearby crystal as well! Talon (10:08 pm): (just IC'd in EC, Terg. o.o) Reni (10:08 pm): takes cover as well...grabbing the hedgie-drone and HC Instant Fox (10:08 pm): Oh crap.. takes cover behind a large rock Mar Owens (10:09 pm): (okay Ali - dunno if I can do three chats at once XD; but I'll see) Reni (10:09 pm): (XDXD I'm having troble with TWO XD) Mar Owens (10:09 pm): takes cover with Ari, holding her in his arms Instant Fox (10:09 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (10:09 pm): Tergonaut: doesn't take cover because he's just kinda stuck there Mar Owens (10:10 pm): Tergonaut: creak creak Reni (10:10 pm): (watch me make the wrong post in the wrong window sometime here...>.>; ) Instant Fox (10:10 pm): (I just almost did XD) Mar Owens (10:10 pm): (lol) Reni (10:10 pm): (XDXD) Mar Owens (10:11 pm): Baetis: then POW! Instant Fox (10:11 pm): takes a quick look- burnface Reni (10:11 pm): eyesheild Mar Owens (10:11 pm): all of the crystals in the cave start to react and glow at once, including the large central one - and the one that is inside Baetis himself Talon (10:11 pm): winces, realizing Terg didn't make it to cover Mar Owens (10:12 pm): Tergonaut: suddenly, there's a pop-whirr and he moves swiftly into a mode that allows him to pop out arm-shields that block out his entire body on the front facing Talon (10:12 pm): (Colors help. o.o) AlloyRabbit (10:12 pm): *(o.o anti-timeout)* Cally has left at 10:13 pm Mar Owens (10:14 pm): then Baetis's armor incinerates away, leaving only the crystal itself floating in the air Mar Owens (10:15 pm): and there is the sound of children's voices, wordless but uplifting, as the dark crystal cube shatters into shards of light that hit the mechanized drones in the room, causing them to glow... Kirby of the stars (10:15 pm): (The sound of a child's laughter heals all) Instant Fox (10:15 pm): (XD) Reni (10:15 pm): (awww ) Instant Fox (10:16 pm): just watching now Wow... Reni (10:16 pm): blink, blink Mar Owens (10:17 pm): and then all of the crystals fade their glows slowly, the melodious sound also disappearing... Kirby of the stars (10:17 pm): Blinks a curios look plastered on his face Reni (10:17 pm): looks around Reni (10:17 pm): that was...interesting Comanche (10:17 pm): looking around now Arikyrenne (10:17 pm): held by Mar; she realized Tergonaut hadn't made it to cover as well, though was too late to try to do anything about it as she was forced to look away as well from the explosion...and she looks back up at the sound, blinking now as she just watches Mar Owens (10:18 pm): Tergonaut: So...this is the key...his voice, though modulated through his suit, still holds a tone of awe in it Bernard has entered at 10:19 pm Kirby of the stars (10:19 pm): (Hiya Bernard!) Arikyrenne (10:19 pm): (hello@Bernard ) Reni (10:19 pm): HC: awwed voice Chaooo... Mar Owens (10:19 pm): looks up and around, his usual serious expression softened by the touch of happy memories that were inspired in everyone's minds at being exposed to the crystal rays Bernard (10:19 pm): (Hey guys) Instant Fox (10:20 pm): (Hiya o.o) Comanche (10:20 pm): smirks So, now what? Mar Owens (10:21 pm): and once the lights and sound have faded...the robot drones that were mechanized, are all now whole and living again! Though they are on the ground, just barely waking up, and looking around as if from a deep sleep Talon (10:22 pm): Her expression is mainly hidden by her mask and visor, but her manner isn't quite as tense Objective complete. Arikyrenne (10:22 pm): mental sigh of relief that Tergonaut did make it through, and she continues to look around in awe Mar Owens (10:23 pm): (MISHUN, COMPLEET! /Fox McCloud) Arikyrenne (10:23 pm): (XD ) Reni (10:23 pm): blink Reni (10:23 pm): ... Instant Fox (10:23 pm): sigh That worked out better than I thought it would...Nice job guys! Mar Owens (10:23 pm): Tergonaut: disengages the arm shields and stands back up again, the suit's hydraulics making slight noises as he moves Reni (10:23 pm): .......quietly...there's...a CURE? Mar Owens (10:23 pm): People: nobody here looks familiar to anyone in the group, not even the hedgehog Reni (10:24 pm): looks over at her companion Mar Owens (10:24 pm): So it seems. But this was too isolated an event to reproduce easily, and it was very risky. Reni (10:25 pm): but...We HAVE to find out how to better use this! Mar Owens (10:25 pm): notices that he's holding on to Ari, and lets go Are you all right, Ari? Kirby of the stars (10:25 pm): Comes out of his hiding place Well that was an unexpected bonus oo Mar Owens (10:25 pm): Tergonaut: If it was done once, then it can be done again. Reni (10:25 pm): ...for everyone that monster's tortured! Reni (10:26 pm): ..... Reni (10:26 pm): .....small voice ...For daddy. Talon (10:27 pm): (afk, foodz) Reni (10:28 pm): she's still got the metal points? or not? Comanche (10:28 pm): (Going to bed now, night!) Arikyrenne (10:28 pm): looks back at Mar as he lets go and gives a nod I'm fine... Kirby of the stars (10:28 pm): (Night Com) Instant Fox (10:28 pm): (Night) Arikyrenne (10:28 pm): (rest well, and 'nite@Trans ) Mar Owens (10:28 pm): she was exposed to the light rays, so yaay they are restored Mar Owens (10:28 pm): (see ya) Reni (10:28 pm): 9seeyas) Mar Owens (10:29 pm): Tergonaut: My suit's energy levels were restored by that, so time for me to head out. he turns Comanche has left at 10:30 pm Mar Owens (10:30 pm): he reverts back to Mar Owens Reni (10:30 pm): Something's different about me...looks at her hands !!! I can feel my fingers again! I'm cured! Instant Fox (10:31 pm): W-Wait! Arikyrenne (10:31 pm): sees Tergonaut turning !...Wait! Reni (10:31 pm): brings her hands up to her ears...then to her tail...they are fully organic Mar Owens (10:31 pm): Tergonaut: halts ... Reni (10:32 pm): I'm normal again! YESSSSSSS! jump in air, fistpump Reni (10:32 pm): (not exactly the emotionalness I was expecting...but...i guess good things can happen to her too :P) Talon (10:32 pm): We've been looking for you, Tergonaut. Mar Owens (10:33 pm): Tergonaut... Arikyrenne (10:33 pm): gives a nod at what Talon said Yeah... Kirby of the stars (10:33 pm): For awhile Mar Owens (10:34 pm): Do you have any idea where we could find Justin Hobbes? And we need your help as well; you must know the threat of the robots by now, this "Drone Army." Tergonaut has entered at 10:34 pm Arikyrenne (10:35 pm): (hello@Tergonaut ) Tergonaut (10:35 pm): (just realized this would have been more dramatic to bring in last night XD;; ) Reni (10:35 pm): picks up HC and runs around the entire cavern, shouting YAAAAAHOOOOOOO! Instant Fox (10:35 pm): (XD) Reni (10:35 pm): XD) Reni* (10:35 pm): ( Talon (10:35 pm): oh yeah. She holsters her pistol. Reni (10:35 pm): (yeah) Reni (10:36 pm): (but you ran out of time. can't be helped) Tergonaut (10:36 pm): ... half-turns, and turns his helmeted head toward the group Looking for me? But how did you know that...I was even alive? Instant Fox (10:37 pm): We got all of your messages Arikyrenne (10:37 pm): ...The Ninja Squirrel Clan said they saw you. Mar Owens (10:37 pm): (err) Mar Owens (10:37 pm): (they don't know that Justin = Tergonaut, and it was Justin who left the messages ^^;; ) Kirby of the stars (10:37 pm): (I keep picturing a Chao-sized Suit of armor floating by Tergonaut) Talon (10:38 pm): (wait, what?) Instant Fox (10:38 pm): (asda) Reni (10:38 pm): skids to a stop back where she started, and turns back to the discussion at hand Instant Fox (10:38 pm): (scratch that last line then) Reni (10:38 pm): (XD) Mar Owens (10:38 pm): (they are looking for Justin AND Tergonaut oo guess it's good I clarified that then, since it looks like I didn't make that clearer) Arikyrenne (10:39 pm): (Ninja Squirrel Clan were the ones who told them about Tergonaut heading towards Mt. Spire to fight the squirrel-eating dragon, for those who weren't here yet for that^^; ) Talon (10:39 pm): (oh. o.o Cause well... Mar Owens (11:07 pm): The more, the better chance we have. But our goal is to try to find Tergonaut, or Justin Hobbes - they may be our key to victory, since Justin in my future is the one who made all of the omni-suits after the first and second ones. ) Instant Fox (10:39 pm): (I probably wasn't paying attention at o-yeah, that) Talon (10:40 pm): (Both Talon and I kind of assumed that the "or" was "=" XD) Mar Owens (10:40 pm): (ah yes, that was a bit ambiguous - I meant Tergonaut OR Justin Hobbes XD; should have said both or something) Kirby of the stars (10:40 pm): (I knew about but even I got confused) Talon (10:40 pm): (Not metaing! Nope!) Tergonaut (10:41 pm): Oh, that's right...and you say you're looking for Justin as well? I presume you have found his messages. Arikyrenne (10:42 pm): nods at that...well, three of them so far, anyway o.o Kirby of the stars (10:43 pm): They have been hepful Tergonaut (10:45 pm): turns his helmet just slightly - is he looking at Ari? Do not worry about Justin; he is safe. Right now, he is helping with Corona City's defenses. I will have to return there myself shortly. Instant Fox (10:47 pm): Well, we'll go with you then. Instant Fox (10:47 pm): If that's alright with you Arikyrenne (10:48 pm): blink-blinks a bit, though figures she's just imagining that he might be looking at her, since, after all, there's no real way to tell where he's looking behind that visor Kirby of the stars (10:50 pm): I think we were heading there anyway Tergonaut (10:52 pm): It's...not safe. starts to turn again You should head back to Sega City. I know you must be all great warriors, but...there are some prices you should not have to pay. Reni (10:52 pm): anywhere that will get me closer to my revenge against Vor... Reni (10:53 pm): (was late with that) Talon (10:53 pm): ... This is my mission, Tergonaut. Arikyrenne (10:53 pm): ...But we want to help! Kirby of the stars (10:53 pm): Not too mention we still have to catch up with Justin! Tergonaut (10:53 pm): (we can count it as if you said it earlier) Reni (10:53 pm): daddy must be avenged Tergonaut (10:54 pm): That's right. There is more at stake here than just our safety - the entire world, no, the future, is at risk. Tergonaut (10:54 pm): (...lol, wrong alt XD; ) Mar Owens (10:54 pm): That's right. There is more at stake here than just our safety - the entire world, no, the future, is at risk. Reni (10:54 pm): (XD) Talon (10:54 pm): (wtg. XD) Tergonaut (10:55 pm): (it used to happen all the time back in the day ^^; that's how Justin managed to pose for someone in a heart-shaped swimsuit) Reni (10:55 pm): (o.o I think I'm missing a T-storm...@ thunder outside) Talon (10:55 pm): (Behold the advantages of tagging.) Instant Fox (10:55 pm): (XD) Reni (10:56 pm): (XD) Arikyrenne (10:56 pm): (arg XD;@that QotW file isn't on this comp, though I could probably find that quote with some searching in the Lodge RP log topic XD; ) Tergonaut (10:56 pm): (hee hee ^^ if you want to, Ari) Reni (10:57 pm): (afk for a bit) Kirby of the stars (10:58 pm): (Ah QoTW you guys have to see those!) Tergonaut (10:58 pm): You're right. There is more at stake...glances at Ari again, then back to the tunnel If you are determined to go, leave through this tunnel and make your way to the north - you'll be able to see Corona City from the cave mouth, if it isn't snowing. Kirby of the stars (10:58 pm): (You'll die of laughing guranteed!) Tergonaut (10:59 pm): I'll meet you there...and Justin will, too. Arikyrenne (11:00 pm): (^^;@portable hard drive with back-up files...Justin Hobbes (9:24 pm): comes out of the changing stall, dressed in a black one-piece swimming suit with the pink front shaped like an elongated heart So, how do I look? ) Kirby of the stars (11:00 pm): (XD) Bernard (11:00 pm): (Hehehe) Reni (11:01 pm): (XDXDXD) Tergonaut (11:01 pm): (XDXD you could show them a little more of the lines on either side if you wanted to give context ^^;; ) Reni (11:01 pm): (and there was no T-storm ) Sandy has entered at 11:01 pm Instant Fox (11:01 pm): (XS) Arikyrenne (11:01 pm): (hello@Sandy ) Kirby of the stars (11:01 pm): (Hiya SX!) Instant Fox (11:01 pm): (Hiya) Sandy (11:02 pm): (I heard something abotua heart-shaped swimsuit?) Reni (11:02 pm): (the weather reports promised me a T-storm! T_T I wants it.) Arikyrenne (11:02 pm): (that's all I have in the file atm; perhaps I'll search for context some other time XD; ) Kirby of the stars (11:02 pm): (Back 50 SX) Mar Owens (11:02 pm): (okay ^^; XD no problems) Mar Owens (11:03 pm): But if we travel together, we'll be safer! Mar Owens (11:03 pm): You should come with us! Sandy (11:03 pm): (I did :P I just jokingly implied that's why I popped in here) Kirby of the stars (11:03 pm): (Ah) Yeah! Talon (11:04 pm): looks at Terg, realization dawning on her face ... ah. Tergonaut (11:04 pm): No. and with that, he suddenly falls backward as parts of the suit flip, switch, pop out and reconfigure, and suddenly he has glowing laser wheels as he appears in a car configuration Reni (11:05 pm): O_o Tergonaut (11:05 pm): carmor mode Kirby of the stars (11:05 pm): (Transformers sings) Kirby of the stars (11:05 pm): I wish I could do that whisper Arikyrenne (11:05 pm): ! watches o.o Reni (11:05 pm): that just looked...painful Instant Fox (11:06 pm): blinks How did you...? Tergonaut (11:06 pm): the new armor mode rumbles with the fresh, throaty sound of a well-tuned engine Tergonaut (11:07 pm): This is why I'll meet you there; I'll draw off any robots that may be on their way here to get at you for destroying one of their Units. Now that you've done that, you'll all be priority targets - if you haven't earned that "privilege" already. Reni (11:07 pm): smirk I was BORN with that "privelege" Talon (11:08 pm): Grins under her mask I am well used to that status. Mar Owens (11:08 pm): We are determined to stop Vorallon...at any cost. Kirby of the stars (11:09 pm): I'm used to it Tergonaut (11:10 pm): Sorry if i sound condescending...I know some of you to be great warriors, and the rest, must surely be as well. But...just be careful. I'll see you later. and he revs up his engine, and rolls out down the tunnel Tergonaut (11:11 pm): HopeChao might have, with her little Chao-trained eyes, seen the outline of a Chao in the tunnel where Tergonaut just went, but it's gone as soon as she sees it Reni (11:11 pm): smirk agian "Careful"...is not in my nature. Arikyrenne (11:11 pm): takes a step forwards...Be careful as well! though he leaves before she can completely finish the sentence Reni (11:12 pm): HC: blink's and tries to get Reni's attention Chao! point Arikyrenne (11:12 pm): (forward ) Reni* (11:12 pm): is too busy flaunting hubris to notice Reni (11:14 pm): and what of that other hedgie? Tergonaut (11:14 pm): ~...you be careful, Arikyrenne.~ and the rumble of Tergonaut's suit fades down the distant tunel Tergonaut has left at 11:15 pm Mar Owens (11:16 pm): ... Mar Owens (11:16 pm): the other hedgie is an older one, seems to be okay - a bit dazed too Instant Fox (11:17 pm): Well, things are starting to looking up...We have a cure, we finally met Tergonaut, and we know where to find Justin. Arikyrenne (11:17 pm): watches until Tergonaut is out of sight and the rumbling fades away, looking in that direction for a few more seconds before turning back to the group and the others around them Kirby of the stars (11:18 pm): And we took down a Robot General oo Reni (11:18 pm): we...should get these people to safety somehow Mar Owens (11:18 pm): Don't get too heady. The "cure" was an accident, Tergonaut just left, and Justin is in the middle of an area clearly targeted by the Drone Army. We'll need to move fast if we expect to help them at all. Talon (11:19 pm): ... We should. Should we take these people back to the Echidna City or proceed with them to Corona? Mar Owens (11:19 pm): Echidnapolis would take us back past that robot outpost again, and we'd be wasting a lot of time. Kirby of the stars (11:22 pm): So do we have them follow us and hope we pass through a village? Arikyrenne (11:22 pm): seems to avoid looking at Mar, though, or at least making eye-contact with him as she listens to the discussion Reni (11:23 pm): If Corona's as dangerous as Terg said it is...we probably shouldn't take them there Reni (11:23 pm): I'd hate to see them get mechanized AGAIN Mar Owens (11:25 pm): But they were mining this crystal to power a new mechanizer - and we stopped them. At best, they'd have to capture the people again and take them to a base with a mechanizer, which would cost them time. Crimson has left at 11:25 pm Mar Owens (11:28 pm): (you don't HAVE to agree with Mar here :P and we can just auto-fast-forward if we take the people back to Echidnaopolis) Reni (11:29 pm): you have a point...however...Terg DID say Corona was still dangerous, didn't he? Talon (11:29 pm): Echidnopolis would probably be safer, if we successfully get past the robot base. Talon (11:30 pm): I have a map of our route between here and there, and my suit's scanners have compensated for the magnetic properties of the crystals. Mar Owens (11:30 pm): a little grudgingly Yes, he did say it was more dangerous... Reni (11:31 pm): And, much as I hate to remind myself of it..I AM still a princess...and my duty lies in protecting my people Mar Owens (11:31 pm): And we might be able to rig up a way to travel faster...all right, let's go back, but we'll have to hurry back. Mar Owens (11:32 pm): (okay, I need to get going for the night ^^; have to wake up in the morning to wake up Grandma, have a few chores to do tomorrow too) Talon (11:32 pm): (alright. Fun ep tonight!) Talon (11:32 pm): (nini man.) Reni (11:32 pm): (ok, seeya0 Mar Owens (11:32 pm): (good teamwork guys doob I heartily approve!) Arikyrenne (11:32 pm): (rest well, and 'nite@Terg ) Mar Owens (11:33 pm): ("we'll show 'em the power of teamwork!") Mar Owens (11:33 pm): (good night all) Reni (11:33 pm): (hee) Talon (11:33 pm): depop! Reni (11:33 pm): (seeya)

Mar Owens (1:28 am): the group went back to the Echidnapolis city, dropped off the de-mechanized people, and came back - they are now back at the original tunnel where the giant crystal is, or in the cavern it is in Mar Owens* (1:31 am): the crystals are still there, and no sign of further robot incursions Kirby of the stars (1:32 am): Well glad to see they didn't come back Mar Owens (1:32 am): the tunnel ahead that Tergonaut used is open before the group, lit down its length by the occasional bit of red fiery poewr crystal Instant Fox (1:34 am): You think we should take some? To see if we can experiment and find a cure? Talon (1:35 am): ... does anyone have the means to carry out such an experiment? Mar Owens (1:35 am): It might be a good idea, but we won't be able to carry too much without slowing us down. Mar Owens (1:36 am): the earthy cavern's smells are natural, but not unpleasant or overbearing - and the crystals shine with a soft glow Comanche (1:37 am): This place is pretty incredible Kirby of the stars (1:38 am): Yeah all shiny and preety Kirby of the stars (1:38 am): (pretty) Instant Fox* (1:40 am): Bending down and digging out a few of the smaller crystals Mar Owens (1:40 am): It is...a beauty to behold. Mar Owens (1:40 am): there is also a warmth here...a warmth that seems both temperature-wise, and...friendly Arikyrenne (1:41 am): Yeah, it is^^...agrees as she takes the oportunity look a bit closer at some of the crystals around them Mar Owens (1:41 am): some of the crystals are the inward-pointing green crystals that seem to absorb various forms of energy, and are synchronized together somehow Talon (1:42 am): Beautiful as it is... I don't think we have much time. Corona City - and Tergonaut - are waiting... Mar Owens (1:42 am): then there are the fiery crystals, red crystals that have flame-shapes to their facets as they glow with flickering light VioletWhirlwind (1:43 am): (GAH for got about this room) Comanche (1:44 am): Yeah, we really should move on sometime soon... Instant Fox (1:45 am): Just a few more... grabbing some of the red ones too, just incase VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): Reni: o.o VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): (I didn't know there was RP) Mar Owens (1:46 am): (sorry about that, we just started) VioletWhirlwind (1:46 am): (ah) Mar Owens (1:46 am): Yes, we should move on. We took a lot of time going back as it is... VioletWhirlwind (1:47 am): (I was looking at a DA tutorial someone linked me) Mar Owens (1:47 am): And who knows what those robots might be doing at Corona City in the meantime. We can't spare any other time. Arikyrenne (1:47 am): nods, the mention of Corona City - and Tergonaut - catching her attention Hopefully both Tergonaut and Justin are still doing okay o.o; looks down the tunnel towards what she's guessing is the direction of the exit VioletWhirlwind (1:47 am): Reni: nods Kirby of the stars (1:47 am): I'm sure Terg and Justin can hold off the robots for a long time VioletWhirlwind (1:48 am): (one sec...gotta relog) VioletWhirlwind has left at 1:48 am Reni has entered at 1:49 am Talon (1:49 am): (terg, you still have an away up.) Arikyrenne (1:49 am): (hello/weba@Reni ) Reni (1:49 am): (there) Instant Fox (1:49 am): (weba) Reni (1:49 am): (thanx) Comanche (1:50 am): Well let's go then! Reni (1:51 am): Yeah! shoots off down the tunnel Reni (1:51 am): (blarg) Reni (1:51 am): (that was lame) Mar Owens (1:51 am): (where at? oO) Arikyrenne (1:52 am): (you still have (Gaming) as your status, if that's what Ali's talking about^^;@Terg ) Mar Owens (1:52 am): (oO it says "here" here...) Reni (1:52 am): (welll TECHNICALLY) Reni (1:52 am): (we ARE gaming :P) Mar Owens (1:52 am): (there, better) Mar Owens (1:53 am): Don't go too fast though! We need to stay together! Mar Owens (1:53 am): starts heading down the tunnel Arikyrenne (1:53 am): (true XD;@gaming ) Mar Owens (1:53 am): the tunnel is wide, round, and smooth...the tracks that Tergonaut left with his nano-wheels can be seen in the dirt floor, as well as a set of Chao footprints that were toward the mouth of the tunnel Mar Owens (1:54 am): but the Chao footprints disappeared when they met up with Tergonaut's wheelprints Kirby of the stars (1:54 am): Blinks at the chao footprints Huh that's weird. . . Reni (1:54 am): HC: usual spot in Reni's quills Reni (1:55 am): HC: so it COULDN'T have been HER :P Reni (1:55 am): (brb) Arikyrenne (1:57 am): looks down and notices the tracks as well...huh o.o Reni (1:58 am): (back) Arikyrenne (1:58 am): (weba) Instant Fox (1:58 am): notices them noticing the chao tracks Instant Fox (1:58 am): Those things sure are popular Instant Fox (1:58 am): (weba) Mar Owens (1:59 am): continues on, not having noticed the tracks Mar Owens (1:59 am): is a rebel Reni (1:59 am): (thanks) Kirby of the stars (1:59 am): Well yeah they are cute =3 picks up his pace Arikyrenne (1:59 am): (XD ) Reni (1:59 am): (music) Instant Fox (1:59 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (1:59 am): (XD) Talon (2:00 am): is usually very aware of her surroundings - she noticed the tracks, but didn't mention them. o.ob Reni (2:00 am): already passed the tracks...not noticing Mar Owens (2:00 am): (Chao: Chao chao chao cha-) Mar Owens (2:00 am): (Terg: VROOOMscreeeechTHUMP) Mar Owens* (2:01 am): (Chao: thumpitythumpthumpthump) Reni (2:01 am): (XDXD baaaaad) Mar Owens (2:01 am): (Terg: ...stops I think I got something stuck on my wheel.) Instant Fox (2:01 am): (XD) Kirby of the stars (2:01 am): (XD Can you say Dark type?) Reni (2:01 am): (XD) Mar Owens (2:05 am): they continue on down the tunnel...it doesn't take them long before they can see light outside, though it's a bit dim as the sky outside is overcast and there is a slight drizzle overhead Reni (2:06 am): stopped some ways ahead so the others can catch up Talon (2:06 am): At least it's not a downpour like the one that forced them into the cave... Kirby of the stars (2:07 am): Not fazed by the weather Mar Owens (2:08 am): they are on a hill overlooking a nearby suburb of a large city - and what they see is devastating. Houses are burned down to the ground or stand like hollow wooden skeletons; cars still burn slowly, or have been crushed as if by giant feet; and smoke rises from holes in the skyscrapers in the distance Comanche has left at 2:09 am Reni (2:09 am): (pokes Met Did you let Rem into the RP?) Reni (2:09 am): (:P) Mar Owens (2:09 am): (XD) Talon (2:09 am): ... Reni (2:10 am): (XP) Talon (2:10 am): her face darkens at the destruction but again she remains silent Reni (2:10 am): ........Vor...you are SO goin' DOWN!
