Mar Owens has entered at 10:53 pm
Arikyrenne (10:54 pm): hello@Mar
Mar Owens (10:54 pm): Yowdy
Sable (10:55 pm): Evening T
Mar Owens (10:56 pm): Feeling up to continuing the RP?
Arikyrenne (10:56 pm): sure o.o
Sable (10:56 pm): I am if you guys are
Mar Owens (10:57 pm): Okay
Mar Owens (10:57 pm): *IC*
Arikyrenne (10:58 pm): *IC!*
Sable (10:58 pm): *Character engines to power, fiction turbines engage!*
Arikyrenne (10:59 pm): (continued on for a few more IC lines last night after you left - just long enough for Ari to tell Jenna to be careful (since she
didn't want to see her getting hurt or anything), and for Jenna to say she was a Pokemon Trainer, btw@Terg )
Sable (11:00 pm): (Aye, only a couple of lines)
Mar Owens (11:01 pm): (okay oo that's fine)
Mar Owens (11:02 pm): *shoulders his backpack and what remains of his supplies* Well, that's slowed us down a bit...What was your name again? Jenna? Have
you seen a man come by this way, named Justin Hobbes?
Sable (11:04 pm): *Shakes her head* Nah, Mower man, I aint seen no guys for a while like. *Blows another bubble*
Sable (11:09 pm): You guys looking for him or something?
Mar Owens (11:09 pm): *tries to ignore the interpretation of his name* Maybe. But in the meantime, we'd better get moving. If we stay here, we'll only
get into trouble.
Mar Owens (11:12 pm): *the group is on the grassy side of the river, BTW - it's a wide open plain surrounded by mountains to the east and more forest to
the south*
The Spiner has left at 11:12 pm
Sable (11:12 pm): *Shoulders her own -mostly filled with gum and chocolate- backpack* Sure thing guy. *Salute*
Callisto has left at 11:12 pm
Arikyrenne (11:14 pm): *backpack = on as well* hmm...Which way should we head now? o.o
The Spiner has left at 11:17 pm
Mar Owens (11:18 pm): Well, I don't imagine that Prof. Hobbes would have stayed out here in the open for very long, regardless of whether he was in any
danger. So it seems to me like the mountains over in that direction, or the forest down there, would be the best way to go.
Arikyrenne (11:20 pm): (is this a more welcoming-looking forest, btw, or is it still all boggy/foggy? )
Mar Owens (11:21 pm): (the former oo)
Mar Owens (11:21 pm): (Justin said he was heading east in the original message, where the mountains are; but there is no guarantee that he went that way XD;;
especially with his luck)
Sable (11:22 pm): (XD Justin: East I g-*kidnapped by ninja squirrels*)
Arikyrenne (11:22 pm): (kk...and yeah XD; I just wanted to get a bit more detail on what the choices were like^^; )
Mar Owens (11:24 pm): (Ninja Squirrels: *take him deep into the forest, intending to sacrifice him to their pagan gods*)
Mar Owens (11:24 pm): (Justin: Aw nuts...)
Sable (11:24 pm): (ARGH! Bad! Bad terg!)
Mar Owens (11:24 pm): (Ninja Squirrels: Nuts?! How does he know the name of our God of Plenty?)
Arikyrenne (11:24 pm): (XD )
Sable (11:25 pm): (XD)
Mar Owens (11:25 pm): (Justin: oO Uhh, because I'm a messenger sent to seek the Holy Filbert. ~Tooootally made that up~)
Mar Owens (11:26 pm): (Ninja Squirrels: The Holy Filbert!! At last the prophecy will be fulfilled!)
Mar Owens (11:26 pm): (Justin: ...~Why me?~ *facepalm*)
Arikyrenne (11:26 pm): (XDXD )
Sable (11:29 pm): Sounds good to me guy! Well then, to adventure! *Point and pose*
Mar Owens (11:29 pm): (anyway XD; thanks for giving me a possible plot)
Sable (11:29 pm): (Also Once More With Feeling is the greatest thing I've ever seen)
AlloyRabbit (11:29 pm): (o-o)
Arikyrenne (11:32 pm): Well, the message said east ~though we probably missed that quite a while ago if he really did go that way~, but the forest would
probably provide the most cover if he were looking to get out of the open...
Mar Owens (11:32 pm): Yeah - and after that last cave we were in, he might have been wary of entering another cave. That crystalpede was ferocious...
Sable (11:33 pm): o.o;? ~Crystalpede. I bet I could have caught it!~
Arikyrenne (11:34 pm): yeah o.o *tries to picture Justin vs. the crystalpede* And this forest certainly looks more welcoming than the last one^^;
Arikyrenne (11:34 pm): (XD@Jenna )
Mar Owens (11:35 pm): (hee hee)
Mar Owens (11:36 pm): (Justin: *creeps along veeeeerrry quietly along this invisible crystal bridge he discovered entirely by accident*)
Mar Owens (11:36 pm): (Crystalpede: *creeps along verrrry quietly right behind him*)
Mar Owens (11:36 pm): (Justin: *stops when he realizes something is glowing behind him* ...aw, nuts. *RUN AWAY!*)
Arikyrenne (11:38 pm): (nuts won't work with the crystalpede, I don't think XP )
Sable (11:39 pm): (XD)
Mar Owens (11:39 pm): (Crystalpede: *CHASE AFTER*
Mar Owens (11:39 pm): (Justin: *slips on the invisible crystal bridge* @@ Oh no! *ducks*)
Mar Owens (11:40 pm): (Crystalpede: *runs right over him, barely missing him as its legs hold it just above the bridge - unable to sense his lack of movement,
it lets out a frustrated screech and dives back into the pit*)
Mar Owens (11:43 pm): Okay, we'll head in that direction then. *starts off toward the forest to the south*
Mar Owens (11:43 pm): (Justin: ...well, whaddya know? *continues on his journey*)
Sable (11:45 pm): *Walks along with them, playing with her yoyo* So you guys must be like, pretty important if killer robots are after you, right?
Mar Owens (11:48 pm): If they catch up to us, it could spell doom for the future.
Sable (11:50 pm): D-o-o-m-space-f-o-r-space-t-h-e-space-f-u-t-u-r-e. *Smirk*
Arikyrenne (11:53 pm): *walking along as well* Yeah, pretty much^^;
Mar Owens (11:53 pm): ...and even ignoring the future, it'll be our futures that will be doomed - if they don't kill us, they'll enslave us as
robots.
Sable (11:55 pm): Eeesh, that's groady. Got job you found me to help you guys then! *Yoyo trick*
Mar Owens (11:58 pm): So, what can you do? This "Pokemon training" does not sound too convincing. *frowns a bit - he seems to be quite a serious
young man*
Sable (11:59 pm): No really! I'm a pokemon trainer guy! It's legit, look! *Shows him an id card... made of cardboard*
Arikyrenne (11:59 pm): (oh dear XD )
Mar Owens (12:00 am): I...see. >>; *hands it back* Well, look, I'm sure you're great at this training Pokermen, but it might be better for you to
stay out of the way in case some real fighting starts...what's that noise?
Mar Owens (12:00 am): *on the wind, there is the chup-chup-chup of propellors*
Sable (12:01 am): *Blink blink and look to the sky* Za?
Arikyrenne (12:03 am): *kinda gave a blink at the card, trying to figure out what to say when the sound cuts through her thoughts* Helicoptor, perhaps? *looks
up at the sky as well*
Arikyrenne (12:04 am): *or at least is hoping it's a helicoptor or something friendly as she scans the sky, trying to find the source of the sound*
Mar Owens (12:04 am): *yes, it's a helicopter - or something like a helicopter. Arikyrenne might remember a similar helicopter like this one from a race
car incident, a black looming hard-edged vehicle with twin rotors on wings that is advancing across the open field, red sensor clusters searching*
Sable (12:05 am): ...Oh snap Megatron is after you guys?
Mar Owens (12:08 am): Yes, Megatron is after us. --; Now we need to get under cover fast, we'll be sitting ducks for that thing's guns if we stay out
here.
Arikyrenne (12:09 am): ! *as she spots it* Mar's right. We need to get out of the open, fast!
Callisto has left at 12:09 am
Sable (12:10 am): Lets book it then! *Wide eyed and flee* ~AHA! And adventure!~
Mar Owens (12:10 am): Gunship: *oh yes, and to top it off, it's got some nasty looking gun clusters too, dual-barreled turrets under each wing and a nose
gun*
Mar Owens (12:10 am): *starts running*
Arikyrenne (12:11 am): ...er, right about getting under cover, not about Megatron! *as she picking up the pace, running towards the forest!*
Sable (12:13 am): Ariky, that's totally Megatron! Look at the nose gun!
Mar Owens (12:14 am): Gunship: *seems to notice their fast movement and leans forward to start flying after them*
Arikyrenne (12:16 am): *still running, glances back towards the gunship, seeing it tilt towards their direction* It's spotted us! *no time to worry about
whether or not it looks like Megatron now!* (and I actually have no idea what Megatron looks like, so I'll have to wiki that or something XD; )
AlloyRabbit (12:18 am): (looks like this in the most recent Transformers Animated series o.o http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/img/news/200802/pr/megatron-01.jpg )
Sable (12:18 am): (TF:Animated Megatron is a ...what AR said)
Arikyrenne (12:18 am): (ahh...thanks^^ )
Mar Owens (12:18 am): (lol XD didn't even realize that)
Sable (12:20 am): (=P Is it bad that's where my mind instantly went?)
Mar Owens (12:20 am): (naw, I think it's cool)
Mar Owens (12:20 am): *the wing turrets open fire, spraying bullets over their heads as it approaches*
Sable (12:21 am): Ahhh! *Pulls her hat down over her ears as she runs faster*
Mar Owens (12:23 am): Get down!
Mar Owens (12:23 am): *dives forward into the grass*
Sable (12:23 am): Right! *Drops. But it's less a dive more of a trip*
Arikyrenne (12:24 am): AHH! *had run a bit farther while ducking down, then drops to the ground as well once she hears Mar say that*
Arikyrenne (12:25 am): Is everybody okay?? *looks back up towards the gunship*
Mar Owens (12:25 am): Gunship: *it flies past them and starts turning around, hovering between them and the forest - it's trying to corner them!*
Sable (12:26 am): *Looks up at it wide eyed in fear* y-y-yeah... ~my hearts going a mile a minute!~
Mar Owens (12:28 am): I'm all right...it looks like we're just going to have to take it down. No telling how long before more robots start showing up.
Sable (12:30 am): Take down a helichopper? .... This is gonna be boss!
Mar Owens (12:30 am): It'll be more than that if we don't get...oh look, it's dropping something.
Mar Owens (12:31 am): *indeed, there are spherical robots being dropped onto the ground*
Sable (12:31 am): *Blink blinks*
Arikyrenne (12:32 am): *tenses* Watch out for those things.
Mar Owens (12:33 am): *the gunship is dropping them, and staying back as the spheres unfold into three-legged plodding robots that hop toward the group - they
have no weapons, and only a small red glass sensor cluster, but those limbs they are hopping on can flex in either direction, and are sturdy enough for
gripping*
Sable (12:33 am): Wooooah... awesome o.o *Stare*
Mar Owens (12:35 am): They're definitely trying to capture us if they can...and we can't let that happen.
Mar Owens (12:36 am): *there are about six of these gripper bots, hopping towards the group - half of them are circling around to try to surround the group
while the other three hop directly toward Ari, Jenna and Mar*
Sable (12:37 am): *Nods* Uh, okay Mowerman. *Pulls out her yo-yo* Lets beat the oil outa them then! ~I'm gonna diiiiieee T___T~
Sable (12:42 am): (test)
Mar Owens (12:42 am): (still here oo)
Arikyrenne (12:43 am): *still keeping down as she prepares herself metally for this, nodding in agreement with Mar* (still here, just slow response^^; )
Mar Owens (12:43 am): Grippers: *the first one jumps for Jenna, targeting her as she seems the youngest and therefore the weakest of the group - it opens its
limbs wide to grab onto her!*
Sable (12:43 am): (Kay, just making sure I hadn't timed out)
Sable (12:44 am): AHH! *Screams and swings her yo-yo at it, trying to wrap the string round it's legs* >.<
Arikyrenne (12:46 am): Jenna! *looks over towards the girl*
Mar Owens (12:47 am): Gripper: *the robot's legs are tied by the yo-yo string, surprisingly wrapping them and holding them tight - but the robot still has
the momentum of flying at her*
Sable (12:47 am): *Drops and tries to roll under it* AAAHHHH! >.<#
Mar Owens (12:48 am): That's it...looks like I'll have to use it. *he shifts his feet out as he faces his Gripper* Ignition! *and energy glows in a
supernova effect around him as orange and blue energized metal form tightly over his frame*
Arikyrenne (12:48 am): *sends a psi blast towards the bot to try to knock it off course as well*
Mar Owens (12:50 am): Gripper: *sent knocked off course with a bonk noise, and rolls through the grass*
Mar Owens (12:50 am): Gripper 2: *hops at Arikyrenne!*
Mar Owens (12:51 am): Oh no you don't! *forms a crab claw with one omni-suited hand and grabs the second Gripper with it*
Mar Owens (12:51 am): *and then throws it at the third one, sending them rolling together like billiard balls through the grass*
Sable (12:51 am): Ha! Yes I rule! *Jerks her hand and unhooks the yoyo, it spinning back into her hoof as she poses*
Arikyrenne (12:52 am): *glances back towards her Gripper just in time to see it hopping at her* !! *...and brief sigh of relief as she thanks Mar for that
rescue*
Mar Owens (12:53 am): *the three other Grippers are hopping toward them now from behind*
Sable (12:55 am): Uh oh! *Chews her gum up sticky and spits it at the camera of the nearest Gripper*
Arikyrenne (12:56 am): *spins around as she hears the sound of the approaching grippers, sending a psi blast at the one closest to her!*
Mar Owens (12:56 am): Gripper: *gets hit in the sensor, and stops for a moment as it tries to reach up and get at the gum - but its legs aren't THAT
flexible, and it stumbles around for a bit as it tries to adapt*
Mar Owens (12:57 am): *the second one is hit by the psi blast, sending it rolling back - it bonks into one of the others that was returning from being rolled
away earlier*
Sable (12:57 am): Wooo! *Holds out a hoof to Ari for a high five*
Mar Owens (12:58 am): *grabs another one with his lobster claw, and he spins it around and tosses it much, much farther - this time aiming it toward the
gunship*
Mar Owens (12:58 am): Gunship: *it merely lifts to dodge the Gripper aimed at it, almost nonchalantly menacing*
Arikyrenne (12:59 am): *smiles for bit and returns the high five* Keep on guard, though, I don't think this isn't over yet!
Sable (1:00 am): You got it! Megatron is still after us!
Arikyrenne (1:03 am): *and turns her attention back towards looking all around them, keeping an eye out for any more bot movement*
Mar Owens (1:06 am): *there's that last Gripper, heading right for Mar - who has finished his windup and now changes the crab claw to a piercing lance,
which he strikes at its sensor with, crushing the red glass and causing it to spark*
Mar Owens (1:06 am): Gunship: *it's clear the grippers alone aren't working, and the threat level has increased - it starts toward the group again,
this time aiming its nose gun at Mar*
Sable (1:07 am): Uh oh! We gotta move it again! *Starts toward the forest*
Arikyrenne (1:09 am): *watches as Mar lances the last Gripper, then looks up to see the gunship closing in again* Mar, watch out! *starts trying to get out of
the area again as well!*
Mar Owens (1:09 am): I'll try to cover you! *hasn't noticed the gunship as he aimed a newly-formed arm cannon at the gripper he stabbed, blasting it
off the lance and sending it tumbling in pieces through the grass - he then proceeds to shoot at the other grippers to deter them from chasing after the
others*
Mar Owens (1:10 am): Huh? *looks up and sees the gunship as its large nose gun draws in red particles*
Mar Owens (1:12 am): Gunship: *fires a large red beam that pierces the air, burning as it strikes Mar and setting fire to the nearby grass, putting Mar in the
center of an inferno*
Sable (1:12 am): *Fleeing like heck* Just move it guy!
Sable (1:12 am): Ohno! O.O;;
Arikyrenne (1:14 am): MAR! *automatically stops, spinning around and running back towards Mar, shielding her eyes from the blaze as she gets closer* Keep
running, Jenna!
Sable (1:14 am): No way Ariky! I've gotta help! ~But what can I do against THAT~ *Skidding to a stop*
Mar Owens (1:16 am): Gunship: *it hovers as it seems to watch, the fire beginning to spread quickly through the tall grass*
Mar Owens (1:17 am): ...*suddenly, the fire disperses as Mar shoots a glowing fire extinguisher from his arm, creating a cloud of fire-eating gas that clears
him from the flames, though they are still spreading elsewhere* That...was almost too hot to handle...
Sable (1:18 am): I'll get the rest of the fire, you help Mower! *Grabs the pokeball from her belt, throwing it forward* C'mon Bruno! ~Please work this
time!~
Sable (1:19 am): *And the pokeball opens to reveal... the danged UGLIEST, bulkiest squirtle you've ever seen.* o.- Squirtle.
Arikyrenne (1:20 am): Okay, just be careful! *and she continues heading towards Mar, shifting to smaller dragonform as she does so. The wings are still
somewhat sore from being pulled, but the form's resistance to flames should help - though it's not resistant to smoke, and she starts coughing as some
of that billows her way*
Mar Owens (1:21 am): *then shifts both arms into fans, and starts blowing the smoke hard away from the group and toward the gunship*
Sable (1:21 am): Okay! Bruno! The fire! *Blinks in suprise at the dragonform as Bruno starts putting out the fire*
Mar Owens (1:25 am): *the fire is quickly under control again, and the gunship is enveloped in smoke*
Mar Owens (1:26 am): Gunship: *but it fires another red beam, striking the ground on the far side of the group...and another fire breaks out, wider this time
because the beam's energy isn't absorbed by Mar's omni-suit's energy shielding*
Mar Owens (1:27 am): We aren't getting anywhere like this...we need to take that chopper down! *he takes to the air and flies toward the cloud the gunship
is in*
Sable (1:27 am): Bruno: Squirtle! >.- *Shakes a fist at the chopper and gets to work on the other fire*
Sable (1:28 am): *Coughs from the smoke* But how guy? It's all the way up there!
Mar Owens (1:31 am): Like THIS! *he curls up, his armor shifting into a bladed saw as he whirls at the gunship - he cuts through one of the engines, causing it
to stutter and unbalance the gunship as he returns to the ground*
Sable (1:31 am): *Looks up* ...woah.... that was BOSS! You RULE guy!
Mar Owens (1:32 am): Gunship: *but this hasn't stopped it...in fact, as it approaches the ground, it plants bird-like mechanical legs onto the ground,
stabilizing itself as it folds its wings and engines back*
Arikyrenne (1:33 am): *had been watching as Mar did that* (sorry^^; still here, just a bit out of it due to tiredness, so having a bit of trouble keeping up
with things tonight)
Sable (1:33 am): o.o; ~This is AWESOME!... but I'm gonna die T_T~
Mar Owens (1:33 am): (no problems - it is getting pretty late as it is)
Mar Owens (1:33 am): (in fact, we might need to stop here at this cliffhanger XD;; )
Sable (1:34 am): (aye)
Arikyrenne (1:34 am): (kk )
Mar Owens (1:34 am): (good night, see you later)
Arikyrenne (1:35 am): (dunno whether or not I'll be on tomorrow though/if I'll be able to RP if I am on - have a midterm on Thurs that I need to
prepare for @.@; )
Arikyrenne (1:35 am): (rest well, and 'nite@Terg )
Mar Owens (1:35 am): (tomorrow will be hard for me too)
Mar Owens (1:35 am): (we'll just have to see how things go, but likely tomorrow night there won't be RP for sure due to school on this end too)
Sable (1:36 am): (Fair enough)
Arikyrenne (1:36 am): (okay. Thursday night should be fine for me, though, unless something weird pops up )
Mar Owens (1:37 am): (I think that can work for me too)
Mar Owens (1:37 am): (good night
Mar Owens has left at 1:37 am
Arikyrenne (1:39 am): (and guess I'd better head out of here as well...rest well, and 'nite everyone^^ )
Sable (1:40 am): (Night ari! Night AR)
