Zs1: (( (Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-FQcyuz_row)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-FQcyuz_row ))
Zs1: Welcome back, to the Stage of History!
Zs1: I mean... uhm... to the Ruin ravaged plains of North Ameria. Word's been getting around that some cyborg has been performing impossible miracles. Things that even science can't explain.
Zs1: So, once more, weriding a transport, you're all en-route.
Zs1: Dan: "Okay so, last reports we'd gotten, there was a large group of Ruin Infected that were heading East. Scans haven't shown them physically, but this facility was along their projected path so it's entirely possible they're hiding out here for now. Questions?"
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern says nothing. An android performing miracles that the Infected are flocking to. It can't be... it just can't be.
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Wait, we're going back there?"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What will happen if we don't stop them?"
*** Hedge has joined the conversation.
Zs1: Dan: "Well, frankly, I don't know. It's just an abnormal phenomenon. Surely if we left it alone, something bad would come out of it. There's a chance they could spread the infection"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: That's just the worst case scenario, of course, but it's still something we can't allow to happen
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "It will require investigating, at least..."
Zs1: And that brings us here, this abandoned oil factory; run dry years and years ago. For while there's no danger of an explosion in a firefight, that doesn't take the danger away from the fight already going on.
Zs1: Yes... there's already a fight happening. But, from the sounds, it's more of a brawl of sorts.
Zs1: Lurking about outside the main facility are a few machines in cloaks, hiding their faces, while inside there's all kinds of commotion.
Zs1: ??: "Kill them! Get their parts! "
??: "Tear them apart! The more parts we have, the better we can reach Luna!"
Zs1: ???: "Hey hey! I'm not spare parts! Get off of me! Get back!"
????: "You're not using me for parts! Spark Shock!"
Zs1: The insides light up, casting silohuettes of all sorts of others inside, through the windows. A body goes crashing through the wall, rolling a few times before the obvious cyborg twitches then dissolves; familiar signs of Ruin.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Isn't that pleasant
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: ... Did they just say...?
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: ...No
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "...This is important. Let's move in."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "...not good."
Zs1: The figures outside raise their heads, looking upon you all. However, most of them only see 'Parts', and those outside start to attack, others filtering in from behind equipment and smaller bildings.
Zs1: Enemies: Ruin Infected cyorgs x15
((Initative: Casshern, Lily, Rock, Gen, Lyuze, Kamille))
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Alright everyone, I'm gonna be providing cover fire from above. Be careful.
Trouble (SRW): Rock watches. There's something about those robots...
Knux (SRW): Gen: "You got it...!" And Gen slaps on the Fourze Driver and henshins!
Trouble (SRW): Rock: Right. Let's try not to do anything reckless, okay Rush?
Nana (SRW): Lyuze merely ejected her sword, Ruined robots were easy to be rid of.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "This battle is out of your league. Stand down if you want to live!"
Zs1: (Cassher, Lily, action)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern equips his helmet. It's really only a matter of time before at least one of them recognizes them, and they start talking about wanting to kill and/or eat him again. Might as well get this over with. He feels nothing but sympathy for the victims of the Ruin, but that doesn't mean he's going to let them spread it beyond the quarantined area. His hip-mounted thrusters flare, and he charges into a crowd of them, combining a spinning kick to one of their heads with a flash-step. *
Zs1: The Ruin Infected see the machine-folk amongst you, and despite warnings, they call for parts, and start swarming.
*Wasting little time, two Infected leap into the air, both taller than Lyuze as they bring giant robot, rusty fists down on her (react, Lyuze)
Tengu (SRWmod): * As expected, her words are completely ignored. Oh well... Lily flies up, aims at the Infected and fires a spread shot from all six of her wing-mounted Psiguns at once, like a shotgun. If instead of pellets, a shotgun fired powerful lasers. +
Zs1: *As usual, Infected cyborgs stand no chance against Cassher, as the single kick sends the head of one of the cyborgs flying, banging it off an I beam before it dissolves.
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze, while not fast, was quick enough to dodge both enemy attacks. It wasn't uncommon to find oneself surrounded at times. She made her way behind on and harshly pushed her sword arm into it's middle, bringing her arm down and effectively rendering it useless. As soon as she deemed it unworthy of her attention, she moved on to the other and jumped up and above it, landing on one of it's arms and using it's limb as a support to drive her sword into it's head+
Zs1: [Lily] Two Infected that try to go after Lily are easily shot down, blown away without effort really. Though they seem crazed in effort, their bodies don't allow them to do what their hearts desire.
[Lyuze] The first cyborg lumbers over as Lyuze bisects it. However when she goes for the second one, it swings it's arm, hitting her in the side while she takes it's head off.
Zs1: Now that you've created a sufficient distraction, someone/thing else emerges from the main building.
*** Hedge has left the conversation.
Zs1: Spark Man ((Link: http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100507031039/megaman/images/3/35/CW-23-SparkMan-Art.jpg)http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100507031039/megaman/images/3/35/CW-23-SparkMan-Art.jpg)
Needle Man ((Link: http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100509151525/megaman/images/c/cf/Needleman.png)http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100509151525/megaman/images/c/cf/Needleman.png)
Zs1: Spark Man: "What's with these freaks. Eating us for parts? Who does that?"
Zs1: Needle Man: "Haven't you heard, that's the new fad. Everyone's doing it why aren't y- Hey! That's the lil blue twerp! Doc said put him on top priority if we find him!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Aww, they're cute."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Woah... nice looks!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock blinks in surprise when he sees them. "Those are Robot Masters! What are they doing here?"
Zs1: Spark Man: "Yeah, he did. So lets get him! Forget these crazy robots!" Which he proves as such as another Ruin cyborg jumps for his back, only to get an overload after touching Spark Man.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: "Are they insane? Why would they wander into the Ruin?"
Zs1: Needle Man: "Cute eh? Not so bad yourself there." He actually poses like he's handsome...
[Lily] Until he points his arm at the girl and opens fire, a stream of needles flying from the canon on his hand. (react)
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: It may be that they didn't 'wander' in here.
Knux (SRW): #Lily
Zs1: As the two robot masters prepare themselves for a fight, several more machines come out of hiding, many of which having blended in with the machinery.
Zs1: (Approved.)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern wonders if they have a death wish. They're almost certainly going to get infected just by being here.
Zs1: More enemies: Giant Metall x5 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Giant_Metall#Giant_Metall)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Giant_Metall#Giant_Metall), Metall DX x10 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Metall_DX#Metall_DX)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Metall_DX#Metall_DX), Hammer Joe x5 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Sniper_Joe#Hammer_Joe)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Sniper_Joe#Hammer_Joe), Needle Man, Spark Man
Knux (SRW): *And Gen runs in, swapping out and activating the Shield Switch and using his not-quite Mighty Shield to protect Lily+
Nana (SRW): Lyuze ends up slamming into the ground after being hit, but at least she was able to defeat them. She quickly recovers with a huff and ejects her other sword.
Zs1: And add 10 more Ruin Infected to the list
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: Great...
Mist3r (SRW): "Lyuze!" Casshern looks genuinely concerned. So much so that it distracts him for a moment.
Tengu (SRWmod): * "How violent." Lily raises a defensive shield between all six of her wings, adding to Gentarou's own shield for even more blocking! +
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Sounds about right?
Zs1: [Gentaro] Easily, the spikes bounce and ping off the shield, with only the very last three sticking INTO the shield... or... any three really, it's hard to say!
Zs1: (Rock, Gen, action)
Trouble (SRW): Rock: Don't you guys think this is a bad time to be fighting us? Why would your creator send you here anyway? Don't you know how dangerous this is?
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Not as harmless as they look, I see... Do we really have to fight them?"
Zs1: Spark Man: "You'd think so, but... not rusing is really... SHOCKING!" And he sparks brightly to cement his pun.
Zs1: *rusting
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: They have it out for Rock, the choice is somewhat out of our hands at this point
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: "I'm fine, keep your eyes on the enemy!" Not that she'd ever seen enemies quite this...colorful....
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Woah... I think I got the point." Well, there's an electric robot, so, time to got Elec States! *Once he's transformed, he's going to rush Spark Man and slash at the Robot Master with Billy the Rod+
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "... That was bad."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern thinks that's a horrendous pun, but doesn't comment. He nods at Lyuze, but keeps an eye on her. He's trying to suppress his Berserk Mode from activating, but the right amount of damage could trigger it regardless.
Zs1: [Gen] Spark Man meets the charge, coming right at the Rider with the huge electrodes for hands. Clashing with Billy, Spark man channels more and more electricity into the sword, causing a backflow he hadn't felt in some time! (react)
Knux (SRW): *That HURTS, even with the protective properties of Elec States! He's gonna try to kick away and get a good distance from Spark Man+
Zs1: [Gen] Kicking at him just adds another surface for him to shock you with. And you feel more than a 'delightful tinge' of electricity blast you away a few feet. "Maybe you'll BRIGHTEN UP and realize my current is stronger!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Tch. Gentarou, do you have anything else you can use?
Zs1: [Kamille] Surely you weren't really watching when one of the massive orange hats took to the sky, as it's not simply descending upon you and the Zeta (react)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ah... give me a moment...!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock grits his teeth and moves too attack, charging a Mega Buster shot and aiming it at Spark Man. "Well, if you guys are gonna play that way!" +
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Please stop with the puns."
Zs1: Needle Man: "What're you talking about. Those puns are golden." Yet his lack of expression betrays his words.
Camiu (SRW): *This is no Zeta! No Zeta! Kamille flips to Waverider mode, the thermonuclear jets boosting him clear of the giant Met!+
Zs1: [Rock] Spark Man eats it, not only not paying him any mind, but too busy gloating to bother dodging. Tumbling back, he digs his electrodes into the ground and sends a curre- NO HE DOES NOT! Even he's surprised when he recalls that this is dirt, not a metal floor!
Zs1: [Kamille] The Giant Met whiffs it as it descends, but with a hop it turns around and spits out giant balls of energy at the Zeta's ass, pinging one off the wings.
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille, action)
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Tch, hit me on the rebound, will you? *Kamille reverts to MS mode, flying away rapidly from the Giant Met as he lines up a shot with the Hyper Mega Launcher. "Let's see how you like it!" He fires a continuous stream of energy at the Met&
Nana (SRW): *While others were busy fighting against bad puns (that's what's happening, right?) Lyuze went to work on the suddenly doubled amount of Infected enemies along with any of those small colorful...things. Really, what were they? She'd never encountered them before. Shrugging it off, Lyuze thrust both her swords towards one particularly large Infected+
Zs1: [Kamille] [Casshern]The Met lowers itself, it's body completely hidden underneath the giant helmet-like body. As the beam hits it, it's deflected, sending the stream at Casshern instead!? (react)(Continue)
Zs1: [Lyuze] Again, large, lumbering and rusting, it can't seem to keep up with Lyuze's speed, but as it's cut down, it makes sure to topple down ONTO her, crushing her with it's decaying body (react)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern sees the beam incoming. He attempts to backflip, and while in midair, attempts to kick another Infected forward into the beam where he was.
Camiu (SRW): *But the beam wasn't shot. No, it was a giant Beam Saber! Kamille was quick to turn the weapon down into the dirt before swinging it upwards to send it flying!+
Zs1: [Casshern] The cyborg takes more damage from the kick itself than the beam, but it's the beam that finishes it off.
[Kamille] And still, the beam is deflected from the orange surface. And even turned upward from the dirt, it doesn't budge, tearing the ground up more than damaging the Giant Met. Or... so it appears.
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily, action)
Mist3r (SRW): # Lyuze (for my action)
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list?)
Nana (SRW): *What was with giant robots, anyway. Gross, decaying ones at that. As if having the Ruin wasn't enough, this amount of exposure wasn't doing her any favors. She grunts as she falls to the ground, completely covered by the giant. She manages to kick a hole through it, speeding up it's decomposition. She pulls herself out of it's pieces and frown.+
Trouble (SRW): "Those helmets are almost indestructable!" Rock warns. Though they at least already figured out energy weapons don't work. "Try hitting them when they're not ducking!"
Zs1: Enemies: Cyborgs x18, Giant Met x5?, Met DX x10, Hammer Joe x5, Needle Man, Spark Man
Zs1: (Support unecessary)
Mist3r (SRW): (never mind, then.) *Casshern sees the amount of damage Lyuze is taken. No way he's going to let her die out here. He dashes towards her, utilizing the speed only he can muster, and attempts to impale another Infected Cyborg with his hand. And he knows just the way to get aggro off of her... "She's not the one you want. I am. My name... is Casshern."
Tengu (SRWmod): * "I guess there's no way around it... Trance Bit!" Lily's eyes flash bright blue, and four extra funnels appear around her! She spins on her heel and extends her arm, sending them flying like deadly saw blades at the Metools and Hammer Joes! +
Zs1: [Rock] Recovering from his stupidity, Spark Man rubs his electrodes together, generating a huge collection of energy, then tossing it along Rock's general direction! (react)
Knux (SRW): #Rock?
Zs1: [Casshern] Yet another rusting infected rests on his hand before it decomposes. But calling out his name like that gets a lot of attention. Every cyborg around starts to converge on him, while the ther robots don't even bat an eye. "CASSHERN! EAT CASSHERN! KILL CASSHERN" It looks quite like a zombie movie as they all start gravitating toawrds him
Zs1: (approved)
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Rock, watch out!"
Knux (SRW): *Gen's busy trying to get himself together until he sees Spark Man attacking! "Heads up!" And he's going to push himself at Rock, intending on pushing him away and taking the attack+
Zs1: [Lily] As the bits go flying out, only one Met ducks down in time, while 3 others are blown away. A targeted Hammer Joe starts swinging his hammer, actually managing to bat away the bit and protect himself, while another is blown away.
Zs1: [Gen] And Rock is defended by Gen's body! Fortunately much of that electricity is dulled by being in Elec states, but it still stings like a bitch!
Trouble (SRW): "Whoa!" Rock notices and starts to move out of the way on his own. He probably didn't actually need that much help, but since he's focusing on Spark Man he also doesn't notice Gen moving to intercept the attack.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "They're not very good at counterattacks..."
Trouble (SRW): ((That action was obvious supposed to be before Gen got hit XD; ))
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Owowowow..."
Zs1: [Lily] As if to counter her point, 2 Met's pop up and fire little energy balls, while one of the far larger ones is about to fall on her head (react)
Zs1: (Rock and Rider, action)
Zs1: After much commotion, yet another "person" reveals themselves, but they don't seem too eager to get into the fray. Rather, he's content to standing in the entrance of the foreman's office.
Trouble (SRW): Rock: (after spotting Gen) Are you alright?!
*** Steam (SRW mod) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: (Link: http://randomc.net/image/Snapshots/Casshern%20Sins%20-%2001%20-%20Large%2005.jpg)http://randomc.net/image/Snapshots/Casshern%20Sins%20-%2001%20-%20Large%2005.jpg
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern freezes. Now's not a good time, he's got a horde of zombie cannibal robots shambling towards him...
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ahhh... stings, but I'll live. I'm a Kamen Rider and Kamen Riders don't die easily!" *He did spot Spark Man's earlier gaff and swaps out another switch for the Schop Switch, a large shovel appearing on his hand... and he starts scooping out dirt and launching it at Spark Man+
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily: "Oh come on, you're doing this on purpose...!" She uses her superior speed to boost out of the way and fly back - and with ten wings instead of six, she's even faster than usual! Well, nine, because she uses one of the Psiguns to send some homing lasers at the two Metools while their faces are still showing. +
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Huh? Casshern?"
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Hmm hmm, Casshern. My its been so long. Say... since I ordered you to kill Luna."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern is frozen in place. He doesn't even notice the Ruin-infected robots getting closer. "Who.. are you?" He ordered him to kill Luna? Who was he? And... why?
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze uses the attention on Casshern to start attacking mercilessly. But then she stops when she hears a voice. She turns to look at the newcomer. "You did...what?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Who-?
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Eh?"
Zs1: [Gen] "Hey! Hey! What the heck're'ya doin! Stop throwin dirt around!" he protests, trying to charge up electricity, but every smack of dirt just dissipates the charge.
Zs1: Braiking "Dont give me that sad look. Did you forget that I was the one who ordered you too kill The Sun Named Moon?"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What? Is that true?"
Mist3r (SRW): Well, techinically, yes, he most definitely did forget. "... Why?" It's all he can bring himself to say. His voice is cracking.
Zs1: [Lily] Yes, yes they were! Easily the giant is outmanuevered, while the smaller try to hop around and turn to face and shoot her again, only to get blipped into oblivion, little orange hats rolling about, quite empty.
Nana (SRW): Lyuze on the other hand doesn't give a flying fuck about Casshern's sensibilities and rounds on the man. "You're the cause of all this? You're the one who brought the Ruin into the world?"
Trouble (SRW): Deciding not to worry himself too much about Gen right now, since he seems okay, Rock turns his attention back to Spark Man and switches weapons to Rolling Cutter before launching a few blades at the electric Robot Master. Time to get a bit more serious. +
Zs1: Braiking Boss: Only one is capable of ruling the world...there is no need for two suns, that is why I gave the order...for YOU to kill Luna!" He continues to wear the same smug look on his face despite everyone else.
Knux (SRW): Gen: "...another person wanting to rule the world?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ...
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: "Who... who are you?" Was this the 'emperor' of what Gatsby called the 'Empire of Free Synthetics?' It didn't last very long according to him due to the Ruin causing it to collapse into total anarchy, but..
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "If what you're saying is true, then explain why Casshern doesn't remember any of this!" Yeah, she knows he had amnesia. But what caused it? She's totally fishing for info.
Zs1: [Rock] Busy trying to dodge dirt, again, Rock gets an easy short at the Robot Master, cutting into him once again, and making him stagger. "You're not playing fair kid!
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: You have a lot of nerve. Luna was quite possibly one of the few good things left in this world, why would you kill her!?
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Trauma I figure. The mere shock of killing a God, wouldn't that drive anyone to want to block that out?"
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Grr... you treat this so casually! How can you be so horrible?!"
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's totally frozen. "You... you had me do that, just to gain power?" He doesn't notice those zombies getting any closer. This was... so awful.
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille)
Nana (SRW): *And now Lyuze's livid so she's just going to grab the closest thing to her (that would be a Met, hello) and chunk it at Braiking Boss+
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "I've had a question for you for a while, though. Surely you don't mind me changing the subject from something so tradgic. Don't you wonder why it is you who are so immune to the Ruin.". He simulateously ignored Lily and Rock, whom are oddly immune also? Moreso, he almost completely ignored the others, simply to get in Casshern's head.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Whatever was the reason, Casshern is not the same minion you can just order around anymore. He's a different person now!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille's anger was escalating. Was this man's ego so great that he'd simply ignore the world around him?
*** Corel (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Lyuze] Throwing a single Met at him... To counter that, he just catches it, and looks at the little machine man inside. "Cute... someting that's yet to catch the infection. You're quite the lucky one.." And then he just CRUSHES it in his hand.
Mist3r (SRW): ... Okay, sure, he'll bite, that is something he's been wondering. "I... I admit, I was curious."
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Tell me, when you did it, did you tear her apart. Did you revel in your victory? How much of her blood was on your hands. Or maybe your eyes? Your face?"
*** Specs (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern brings his hands to his face. The flashbacks... "Who are you?" The voice in his head again... That should answer Braiking Boss's question.
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille reigned it in, though. He learned his lesson with Scirocco, blindly lashing out will do nothing here. He focuses on Spark Man, and fired his Beam Rifle multiple times in the Robot Master's direction.+
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Did it never occur that perhaps killing her made you so immortal? That her blood, as you spilled it, has seeped into your body."
*** Tengu (SRWmod) has left the conversation.
*** Tengu (SRWmod) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Kamille] The far larger shots (compared to the Robot Master), lay into Spark Man's back while he was trying to charge up to strike at Rock again. But after that, even he's sparking and trying to hold himself together.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's eyes widened. He falls to his knees. "That..." He has no words. It does explain everything, though. Why the Ruined want to eat him. Why he's immune to the Ruin. Why he's immortal, and why he heals so quickly without needing repairs. Why the White Chalice scientists seem to think they can make a vaccine from his cells.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Rock, he's open, end him!
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Enough."
Zs1: [Gen, Rock] "That's... that's hardly fair. I'll just... take you down with me! SPAAAAARK SHOOOOOCK!" THe Robot Master begins to crackle with energy like he were something completely from another series! As electricity gathered about him, it was all discharged in one massive ball of frustration and current! (react)
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What are you trying to do with Casshern here?"
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Yes, let it sink in, like her blood. Her blood flows in you. Her blood makes you what you are."
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Stop tormenting him. He already does it enough to himself on his own!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock again moves to dodge out of the way of the shockwave, ducking behind some debrise.
Zs1: (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40wJSYGaARE)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40wJSYGaARE
He finally regards someone else now. "Why, I can't let an old companion just suffer without his memories. I thought seeing him again while I was here, I'd help him." Oh what false sincerity.
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze notices the surrounding Infected and goes after one that has gotten particularly close to Casshern. "He's breaking him." She slashes and slashes and slashes, trying to get through the Infected. "Casshern, snap out of it!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "You 'helped' enough. Get out of here."
Zs1: [Lyuze] While you, and Casshern are slowly surrounded, you manage to take down a few more, forcing them to climb over one another to get at the two in their middle.
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "What I came for isn't here, so I think I shall. Do have a lovely day, my old subordinate." Still grinning, he steps back into the small office. Wouldn't he just be cornered in there?
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern stared at the ground. "There... was nothing I could do after all, was there...?"
Trouble (SRW): From his hiding spot Rock sends another couple of Rolling Cutters at Spark Man in hopes of finishing him off. +
Zs1: [Rock] THe huge blob of energy smashes into the debris, but in blowing it away, the rubble beats in to the Blue Bomber. But not enough that he can't get that shot in to finally destroy the machine!
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily)
Trouble (SRW): Rock staggered, but at least it wasn't as bad as actually getting hit by the full force of that attack would've been, and now the weapon copy ability was activated by Spark Man's defeat, even as Rock steadies himself to look at where the Robot Master's remains were.
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list again?)
Nana (SRW): *"Apparently not. That...man...it's all his fault.." Lyuze growls in frustration as they keep coming in. She keeps slashing but is starting to visibly tire down. "But now is...not the time to worry about...that!" She huffs, slashing at another enemy. "Get up!"+
Zs1: Enemies: Cyborgs x14, Giant Met x5?, Met DX x4, Hammer Joe x4, Needle Man
Zs1: [Rock] Where Spark Man once stood, there is a shiny! A thing on the ground, besides a smoldering mark where he blew up.. Perhaps it's something you've been after, yes?!
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern slowly forces himself to get up. "I... You're right." He can't let himself, or Lyuze, die here. And that man owes him answers. "We're going after him. He just went into that office..." He activates the installed commlink in his helmet. "We're going after him... keep those larger robots off of us, alright?"
Trouble (SRW): Rock: !?
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Lily, status report on Casshern?
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "He seems to be alright now."
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Got it, Casshern. "
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern nods at Lyuze. He then leaps into the air, jumping from catwalk to catwalk, determined to chase after Braiking Boss. That room was isolated. Surely he'd be in there, right? And I'm not tempting fate?
Trouble (SRW): Rock ran over to the debrise and picked up the object. It's one of the Power Crystals the Robot Masters stole! "Alright, got another one!" Though speaking of the robot masters, where had that other one wandered off to?
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Thank god for that much.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ... Gentarou, Rock, any sight of the other Robot Master?
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily drops down to the ground and starts floating right above it, moving in circles around the enemies. A giant arm cannon materializes around her hand, and she uses it to fire large, exploding balls of blue energy at the enemies! She's not discriminating with the targets, though she tries to fire at least a few at Needle Man.+
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ah, no sign yet... did he get away?"
Zs1: [Casshern] Something bursts from the roof of the room, meeting up with Casshern in mid air, and wasting absolutely no time trying to cut into him. It looks like some sort of humanoid spider, as two of it's limbs try to cut Casshern's arms off (react)
Tengu (SRWmod): # Casshern
Zs1: [Lily, Gen] As if on cue, a stream of spikes blow through the wall of the main facility. Streams of them stop and start, as if aiming blindly, while trying to actually hit something. And the closest thing to a target is the two of you! (react)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Whoop!" *And Gen's going to push away from those needles, hoping to land away from those things!+
Zs1: The thing attacking Casshern: (Link: http://images.wikia.com/casshan/images/d/d1/Dune_Masked.png)http://images.wikia.com/casshan/images/d/d1/Dune_Masked.png

Nana (SRW): *Lyuze feels like those little colorful Met things aren't quite so useless so she grabs another one, throwing it at another enemy.+
Tengu (SRWmod): * "This again!" Lily takes up to the skies, trying to put some obstacles/buildings between herself and the attacker! Her response shots at Needle Man can come now... +
Zs1: (It's not your turn Lyuze)
Nana (SRW): (Oh, woops, sorry!)
Zs1: [Gen] A couple needles hit you're arm, but, it's far from fatal. Painful but, they're not sticking out of you at least!
[Lily](action react) The spread of attacks largely removes the last of teh Mets, and another of the Hammer Joes.
[Lily](react react) However, the shots are largely blind as there's an entire building, roof, walls, and all between yourself and Needle Man. He seems to be using the cover of the building itself to avoid being from the outside. Quite clever of him!
Tengu (SRWmod): # Casshern?
Zs1: (And for formality, your support was denied by other stuff earlier, it's clear now)
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily told Casshern she's going to cover him, and so she does. The moment the spider-like robot jumps out from its hideout, two energy balls are shot into its direction! +
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Keh...!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Gentarou, Rock, get clear of the wall, I'm going to blow it to pieces.
Zs1: [Kamille] The Giant Mets opt to play 'smart' as one from the ground fires energy balls at the Zeta, while another is up in the air again, trying to drop down on him.
*** Mist3r (SRW) has left the conversation.

Zs1: (Kamille, reactface)
Zs1: (Rock and Gen also actface)
Camiu (SRW): *Ah ha ha ha-no. Kamille's moving in circles to dodge the bullets from below, firing upwards at the falling Met with a Grenade!+
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Tch, right!" *And Gen's going to get away from that wall!+
Trouble (SRW): Rock does as he's told and gets clear too. +
Zs1: [Casshern/Lily] As the energy comes flying forth, the odd claw-limbs close back against it's body, but two more project from it's chest, cutting the energy balls in half... sort of. The energy clearly splits, but the blades are mangled just as well.
Tengu (SRWmod): (actface, not reactface)
Knux (SRW): ((Whoops!))
Trouble (SRW): ((I don't know what that means. XD; ))
Zs1: (Gen is Lateface. Just silliness. Action!)
Knux (SRW): *And as Gen gets out of the way, he switchs on Launcher and pelts Needle Man (and any other Mets/Hammer Joes/what have you) with random missiles!+
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern lands on the ground, but backflips once he hits the ground to regain his composure. (Link: http://randomc.net/image/Snapshots/Casshern%20Sins%20-%2001%20-%20Large%2007.jpg)His facemask then closes, and his eyes light up. There's a bloody gash across his chest, but it's already beginning to close up.
Trouble (SRW): Rock does as he's told and moves out of the way too, and as he goes, he decides switches to Gemini Laser and also attacks Needle Man with it +
Zs1: [Kamille] This time you have the right idea, attacking from below, or, attacking from it's exposed underbelly. The insides blow up, but as punishment, the huge orange dome lands on the Zeta's nosecone, weighing you down and screwing up trajectory
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Watch out, he went berserk..."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "He still does that?!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: We still have the restraining bolt.
Zs1: [Kamille] ^The orange dome lands on your head, blinding you, and pulling your torso forward
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Son of a-!
Zs1: [Gen] At least from below, you can see into the main facility and fire back. It's a straight shot to hit Needle Man, as well as the machinery inside. "Just wonderful! Go shoot up somethin else, would ja!" he shouts, firing back with a stream of needles.
Knux (SRW): *and there goes the shield again to protect him!+
Zs1: [Gen] This time it's far worse, as every needle from the stream hits the shield, damaging it so badly that it's more of a shield of needles. The switch overloads and shuts itself off, it's cosmic energy spent!
[Rock] Firing the laser, it's dodged while Needle Man is trying to not be hit by Gen's rockets, but, not taking into account that they reflect, he's hit square in the ass, sending him flying forward towards the entrance!
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Yikes, not good!"
Zs1: [Casshern] The strange machine-man lands on the roof of the office, staring at Casshern with devoid eyes. "Casshern! You are my enemy, my nemesis, Luna's Killer!!...My SCURGE" Tearing the tattered cloak off himself, he jumps forth again, his own, plus four bladed arms extending, and moving about him like a glimmering storm.
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille flipped the giant worker's helmet so that his Zeta Altered was standing on it, before kicking it at the wall Needleman was hiding behind!+
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern says nothing. This guy has way too many blades coming out of him, he can't dodge them all.
Mist3r (SRW): He's forced on the defensive right out of the gate.
Zs1: [Kamille] The giant helmet smashes into the wall, bringing that whole side of the building down, and plenty of rubble down on top of Needle Man. However the helmet itself... It's stopped dead before it hits him; Needle Man's head having ejected and stopped the shell... erhm, helmet in it's tracks!
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze was kept back to keep fighting off the Infected that were left, which was still quite a bit. She takes a moment to catch her rest before launching at an incoming enemy, blades at the ready.+
*** Specs (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] (because I meant to put a react prompt there) Blades start swinging and swiping into Casshern, cutting into him, but they don't sever any limbs, simply drawing plenty of blood and tearing up his suave white outfit.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ... Really?
Zs1: Needle Man: "Yeah really! Just what did you expect to happen? I'd stand there and get steamrolled?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: No, actually, I was expecting you to try and catch it with your limbs, not your head.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Wait, why am I arguing this?
Zs1: [Lyuze] It's you against fourteen other cyborgs, and even some of the other rabble are converging on you as an easy target! While you take down two, a huge black mace smashes into your back!
Zs1: [Kamille] "Becuase you're as hard HATTED as I am!" Reeling his head back, he fires it again, smashing the orange dome and sending it flying right back at the Zeta's chest! (react)
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily)
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list?)
Mist3r (SRW): *Blades dude is crazy fast, and those blades just keep coming. But he has to break the momentum somehow. Casshern attempts to flash step away, reappearing on the ceiling. He then boosts downwards, attempting to slam his fist down onto his head.+
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille tries to catch it, only to be sent flying by the unexpected force behind the giant hard hat! He's going clear of the battle field!+ "That pun was terrible~!"
Zs1: Enemy List: Cyborgs x12, Giant Met x3, Hammer Joe x4, Needle Man (damaged), Dune (Ruin'd)
Camiu (SRW): (Remove Kamille from initiative.)

Zs1: [Kamille] Taking a dome to the chest, Kamille is sent flying off pretty far. Heck, even Needle man is gawking in surprise. "Damn... I... can't even crack a joke at that..."
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily cannot risk accidentally shooting Casshern, so she will leave Dune to him (and Lyuze?). Instead, she lands on the ground and starts charging up a large glowing ball at the end of her cannon. "Energy gathering... Completely. Charge Mode on! E.V.E. Shot!" With her eyes glowing brighly with power, she fires a huge beam towards the other enemy robots and cyborgs, including Needle Man! +
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] Dune's momentum carries him forward as you move out of the way. Fortunately for you, he's clearly suffering from Ruin, so his reaction time is hampered, letting your fist bash him in the head before he gets another swipe, digging the blade into your arm.
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Lily] Lyuze is still dealing with Ruin cyborgs on the ground, but from where you are, the shot tears through half their forces, and even the Hammer Joe hiding among them. The beam rips through the building as well, where a still dumbstruck Needle Man was looking at the fruits of his labor. Blasted with the huge shot, he manages to stagger himself back up, his head hanging loose, and one of his arms blown away!

Nana (SRW): @Casshern
Zs1: (Approved, Nana, now stop DCing)
Nana (SRW): *After being bashed on and avoided an enormous attack, Lyuze finally has time to noticed just what is going on with Casshern. She quickly jumps into action, her weapons going in to attack Dune while he is so clearly focused on Casshern&
Zs1: [Lyuze] As Dune turns around to swipe at Casshern again, it exposes his back to Lyuze, who was never a factor in this fight, as long as he was concerned. So imagine his surprise as he takes a slash to the back! (continue)
Nana (SRW): *Surprise was always the best way to get rid of a pest. Thankfully it worked out for her. She digs both her swords in at that time, using them to anchor herself in and pull her arms up, towards his head.+
Zs1: [Lyuze] As the other sword digs in, he stumbles. Only barely to the blade arms reach back and swipe at her, trying to keep his head intact, staggering forth when he makes her back off, lest she wants to lose both her arms
Mist3r (SRW): # Layuze
Mist3r (SRW): Lyuze*
Zs1: (Approved)
Mist3r (SRW): *Oh, no you don't, Dune. Just as he sees those blades come out, Casshern follows through on his initial attack. His hand moves in between those blades, attempting to impale Dune straight through the chest, but he won't be hitting any vitals with the way those blades are moving.
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] The blades are snapped off in the process of Dune taking hands through the chest, leaving him to slump over and fall down, face first, onto the dirt.
Zs1: As Dune lays on the ground, Ruin rotting him, there's footsteps from the remains of the main facility. Light, soft footsteps. Slowly, a small woman... nay, girl walks out, the sun gleaming off her silver hair.

Mist3r (SRW): Casshern freezes.
Zs1: Dune: "L-Luna! Luna, please..." Dune seems genuinely convinced this is the very woman he fought to protect, and the one who can save his broken body.
Mist3r (SRW): In fact, his eyes suddenly darken, and the facemask reopenes.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Luna? But isn't she..."
Zs1: Luna: "I can't heal you. I won't associate with anything that smells of death."
Nana (SRW): Lyuze...isn't sure what to do. She stares in wonder before taking a step towards the woman. "Luna...."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's eyes widen. "This...?"
Zs1: Dune's mind is blown, he lays there, reaching out to her. "Luna... Please..."
Zs1: Luna: "You're disgusting. Just lay there and die peacefully."
Trouble (SRW): Rock: That's Luna...?

Zs1: From there, she refuses to acknowledge Dune at all. "Casshern..." Oh look, she rememers you. "Lyuze." And her too.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern is in shock. "Are you... really Luna?" Because he agrees. He expected her have a bit more empathy. He feels bad for Dune.
Nana (SRW): "Luna, why? Why won't you help him?" She remembered Dune, but....the Dune from her memories did not look like this. The Luna she swore to protect did not sound like this.

Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's a bit too shocked to really do anything about it. Approach at your leisure, Luna.
Mist3r (SRW): "You can... end the Ruin, can't you?"
Nana (SRW): Oh... oh wow that hurt. Lyuze isn't sure what to do now. Here she was, the woman she and her sister failed to protect. The Sun Named Moon that Casshern had killed but...she was so different.

Zs1: Welcome back, to the Stage of History!
Zs1: I mean... uhm... to the Ruin ravaged plains of North Ameria. Word's been getting around that some cyborg has been performing impossible miracles. Things that even science can't explain.
Zs1: So, once more, weriding a transport, you're all en-route.
Zs1: Dan: "Okay so, last reports we'd gotten, there was a large group of Ruin Infected that were heading East. Scans haven't shown them physically, but this facility was along their projected path so it's entirely possible they're hiding out here for now. Questions?"
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern says nothing. An android performing miracles that the Infected are flocking to. It can't be... it just can't be.
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Wait, we're going back there?"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What will happen if we don't stop them?"
*** Hedge has joined the conversation.
Zs1: Dan: "Well, frankly, I don't know. It's just an abnormal phenomenon. Surely if we left it alone, something bad would come out of it. There's a chance they could spread the infection"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: That's just the worst case scenario, of course, but it's still something we can't allow to happen
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "It will require investigating, at least..."
Zs1: And that brings us here, this abandoned oil factory; run dry years and years ago. For while there's no danger of an explosion in a firefight, that doesn't take the danger away from the fight already going on.
Zs1: Yes... there's already a fight happening. But, from the sounds, it's more of a brawl of sorts.
Zs1: Lurking about outside the main facility are a few machines in cloaks, hiding their faces, while inside there's all kinds of commotion.
Zs1: ??: "Kill them! Get their parts! "
??: "Tear them apart! The more parts we have, the better we can reach Luna!"
Zs1: ???: "Hey hey! I'm not spare parts! Get off of me! Get back!"
????: "You're not using me for parts! Spark Shock!"
Zs1: The insides light up, casting silohuettes of all sorts of others inside, through the windows. A body goes crashing through the wall, rolling a few times before the obvious cyborg twitches then dissolves; familiar signs of Ruin.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Isn't that pleasant
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: ... Did they just say...?
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: ...No
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "...This is important. Let's move in."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "...not good."
Zs1: The figures outside raise their heads, looking upon you all. However, most of them only see 'Parts', and those outside start to attack, others filtering in from behind equipment and smaller bildings.
Zs1: Enemies: Ruin Infected cyorgs x15
((Initative: Casshern, Lily, Rock, Gen, Lyuze, Kamille))
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Alright everyone, I'm gonna be providing cover fire from above. Be careful.
Trouble (SRW): Rock watches. There's something about those robots...
Knux (SRW): Gen: "You got it...!" And Gen slaps on the Fourze Driver and henshins!
Trouble (SRW): Rock: Right. Let's try not to do anything reckless, okay Rush?
Nana (SRW): Lyuze merely ejected her sword, Ruined robots were easy to be rid of.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "This battle is out of your league. Stand down if you want to live!"
Zs1: (Cassher, Lily, action)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern equips his helmet. It's really only a matter of time before at least one of them recognizes them, and they start talking about wanting to kill and/or eat him again. Might as well get this over with. He feels nothing but sympathy for the victims of the Ruin, but that doesn't mean he's going to let them spread it beyond the quarantined area. His hip-mounted thrusters flare, and he charges into a crowd of them, combining a spinning kick to one of their heads with a flash-step. *
Zs1: The Ruin Infected see the machine-folk amongst you, and despite warnings, they call for parts, and start swarming.
*Wasting little time, two Infected leap into the air, both taller than Lyuze as they bring giant robot, rusty fists down on her (react, Lyuze)
Tengu (SRWmod): * As expected, her words are completely ignored. Oh well... Lily flies up, aims at the Infected and fires a spread shot from all six of her wing-mounted Psiguns at once, like a shotgun. If instead of pellets, a shotgun fired powerful lasers. +
Zs1: *As usual, Infected cyborgs stand no chance against Cassher, as the single kick sends the head of one of the cyborgs flying, banging it off an I beam before it dissolves.
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze, while not fast, was quick enough to dodge both enemy attacks. It wasn't uncommon to find oneself surrounded at times. She made her way behind on and harshly pushed her sword arm into it's middle, bringing her arm down and effectively rendering it useless. As soon as she deemed it unworthy of her attention, she moved on to the other and jumped up and above it, landing on one of it's arms and using it's limb as a support to drive her sword into it's head+
Zs1: [Lily] Two Infected that try to go after Lily are easily shot down, blown away without effort really. Though they seem crazed in effort, their bodies don't allow them to do what their hearts desire.
[Lyuze] The first cyborg lumbers over as Lyuze bisects it. However when she goes for the second one, it swings it's arm, hitting her in the side while she takes it's head off.
Zs1: Now that you've created a sufficient distraction, someone/thing else emerges from the main building.
*** Hedge has left the conversation.

Zs1: Needle Man: "Haven't you heard, that's the new fad. Everyone's doing it why aren't y- Hey! That's the lil blue twerp! Doc said put him on top priority if we find him!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Aww, they're cute."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Woah... nice looks!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock blinks in surprise when he sees them. "Those are Robot Masters! What are they doing here?"
Zs1: Spark Man: "Yeah, he did. So lets get him! Forget these crazy robots!" Which he proves as such as another Ruin cyborg jumps for his back, only to get an overload after touching Spark Man.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: "Are they insane? Why would they wander into the Ruin?"
Zs1: Needle Man: "Cute eh? Not so bad yourself there." He actually poses like he's handsome...
[Lily] Until he points his arm at the girl and opens fire, a stream of needles flying from the canon on his hand. (react)
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: It may be that they didn't 'wander' in here.
Knux (SRW): #Lily
Zs1: As the two robot masters prepare themselves for a fight, several more machines come out of hiding, many of which having blended in with the machinery.
Zs1: (Approved.)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern wonders if they have a death wish. They're almost certainly going to get infected just by being here.
Zs1: More enemies: Giant Metall x5 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Giant_Metall#Giant_Metall)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Giant_Metall#Giant_Metall), Metall DX x10 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Metall_DX#Metall_DX)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Metall_DX#Metall_DX), Hammer Joe x5 ((Link: http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Sniper_Joe#Hammer_Joe)http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Sniper_Joe#Hammer_Joe), Needle Man, Spark Man
Knux (SRW): *And Gen runs in, swapping out and activating the Shield Switch and using his not-quite Mighty Shield to protect Lily+
Nana (SRW): Lyuze ends up slamming into the ground after being hit, but at least she was able to defeat them. She quickly recovers with a huff and ejects her other sword.
Zs1: And add 10 more Ruin Infected to the list
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: Great...
Mist3r (SRW): "Lyuze!" Casshern looks genuinely concerned. So much so that it distracts him for a moment.
Tengu (SRWmod): * "How violent." Lily raises a defensive shield between all six of her wings, adding to Gentarou's own shield for even more blocking! +
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Sounds about right?
Zs1: [Gentaro] Easily, the spikes bounce and ping off the shield, with only the very last three sticking INTO the shield... or... any three really, it's hard to say!
Zs1: (Rock, Gen, action)
Trouble (SRW): Rock: Don't you guys think this is a bad time to be fighting us? Why would your creator send you here anyway? Don't you know how dangerous this is?
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Not as harmless as they look, I see... Do we really have to fight them?"
Zs1: Spark Man: "You'd think so, but... not rusing is really... SHOCKING!" And he sparks brightly to cement his pun.
Zs1: *rusting
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: They have it out for Rock, the choice is somewhat out of our hands at this point
Nana (SRW): Lyuze: "I'm fine, keep your eyes on the enemy!" Not that she'd ever seen enemies quite this...colorful....
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Woah... I think I got the point." Well, there's an electric robot, so, time to got Elec States! *Once he's transformed, he's going to rush Spark Man and slash at the Robot Master with Billy the Rod+
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "... That was bad."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern thinks that's a horrendous pun, but doesn't comment. He nods at Lyuze, but keeps an eye on her. He's trying to suppress his Berserk Mode from activating, but the right amount of damage could trigger it regardless.
Zs1: [Gen] Spark Man meets the charge, coming right at the Rider with the huge electrodes for hands. Clashing with Billy, Spark man channels more and more electricity into the sword, causing a backflow he hadn't felt in some time! (react)
Knux (SRW): *That HURTS, even with the protective properties of Elec States! He's gonna try to kick away and get a good distance from Spark Man+
Zs1: [Gen] Kicking at him just adds another surface for him to shock you with. And you feel more than a 'delightful tinge' of electricity blast you away a few feet. "Maybe you'll BRIGHTEN UP and realize my current is stronger!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Tch. Gentarou, do you have anything else you can use?
Zs1: [Kamille] Surely you weren't really watching when one of the massive orange hats took to the sky, as it's not simply descending upon you and the Zeta (react)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ah... give me a moment...!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock grits his teeth and moves too attack, charging a Mega Buster shot and aiming it at Spark Man. "Well, if you guys are gonna play that way!" +
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Please stop with the puns."
Zs1: Needle Man: "What're you talking about. Those puns are golden." Yet his lack of expression betrays his words.
Camiu (SRW): *This is no Zeta! No Zeta! Kamille flips to Waverider mode, the thermonuclear jets boosting him clear of the giant Met!+
Zs1: [Rock] Spark Man eats it, not only not paying him any mind, but too busy gloating to bother dodging. Tumbling back, he digs his electrodes into the ground and sends a curre- NO HE DOES NOT! Even he's surprised when he recalls that this is dirt, not a metal floor!
Zs1: [Kamille] The Giant Met whiffs it as it descends, but with a hop it turns around and spits out giant balls of energy at the Zeta's ass, pinging one off the wings.
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille, action)
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Tch, hit me on the rebound, will you? *Kamille reverts to MS mode, flying away rapidly from the Giant Met as he lines up a shot with the Hyper Mega Launcher. "Let's see how you like it!" He fires a continuous stream of energy at the Met&
Nana (SRW): *While others were busy fighting against bad puns (that's what's happening, right?) Lyuze went to work on the suddenly doubled amount of Infected enemies along with any of those small colorful...things. Really, what were they? She'd never encountered them before. Shrugging it off, Lyuze thrust both her swords towards one particularly large Infected+
Zs1: [Kamille] [Casshern]The Met lowers itself, it's body completely hidden underneath the giant helmet-like body. As the beam hits it, it's deflected, sending the stream at Casshern instead!? (react)(Continue)
Zs1: [Lyuze] Again, large, lumbering and rusting, it can't seem to keep up with Lyuze's speed, but as it's cut down, it makes sure to topple down ONTO her, crushing her with it's decaying body (react)
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern sees the beam incoming. He attempts to backflip, and while in midair, attempts to kick another Infected forward into the beam where he was.
Camiu (SRW): *But the beam wasn't shot. No, it was a giant Beam Saber! Kamille was quick to turn the weapon down into the dirt before swinging it upwards to send it flying!+
Zs1: [Casshern] The cyborg takes more damage from the kick itself than the beam, but it's the beam that finishes it off.
[Kamille] And still, the beam is deflected from the orange surface. And even turned upward from the dirt, it doesn't budge, tearing the ground up more than damaging the Giant Met. Or... so it appears.
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily, action)
Mist3r (SRW): # Lyuze (for my action)
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list?)
Nana (SRW): *What was with giant robots, anyway. Gross, decaying ones at that. As if having the Ruin wasn't enough, this amount of exposure wasn't doing her any favors. She grunts as she falls to the ground, completely covered by the giant. She manages to kick a hole through it, speeding up it's decomposition. She pulls herself out of it's pieces and frown.+
Trouble (SRW): "Those helmets are almost indestructable!" Rock warns. Though they at least already figured out energy weapons don't work. "Try hitting them when they're not ducking!"
Zs1: Enemies: Cyborgs x18, Giant Met x5?, Met DX x10, Hammer Joe x5, Needle Man, Spark Man
Zs1: (Support unecessary)
Mist3r (SRW): (never mind, then.) *Casshern sees the amount of damage Lyuze is taken. No way he's going to let her die out here. He dashes towards her, utilizing the speed only he can muster, and attempts to impale another Infected Cyborg with his hand. And he knows just the way to get aggro off of her... "She's not the one you want. I am. My name... is Casshern."
Tengu (SRWmod): * "I guess there's no way around it... Trance Bit!" Lily's eyes flash bright blue, and four extra funnels appear around her! She spins on her heel and extends her arm, sending them flying like deadly saw blades at the Metools and Hammer Joes! +
Zs1: [Rock] Recovering from his stupidity, Spark Man rubs his electrodes together, generating a huge collection of energy, then tossing it along Rock's general direction! (react)
Knux (SRW): #Rock?
Zs1: [Casshern] Yet another rusting infected rests on his hand before it decomposes. But calling out his name like that gets a lot of attention. Every cyborg around starts to converge on him, while the ther robots don't even bat an eye. "CASSHERN! EAT CASSHERN! KILL CASSHERN" It looks quite like a zombie movie as they all start gravitating toawrds him
Zs1: (approved)
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Rock, watch out!"
Knux (SRW): *Gen's busy trying to get himself together until he sees Spark Man attacking! "Heads up!" And he's going to push himself at Rock, intending on pushing him away and taking the attack+
Zs1: [Lily] As the bits go flying out, only one Met ducks down in time, while 3 others are blown away. A targeted Hammer Joe starts swinging his hammer, actually managing to bat away the bit and protect himself, while another is blown away.
Zs1: [Gen] And Rock is defended by Gen's body! Fortunately much of that electricity is dulled by being in Elec states, but it still stings like a bitch!
Trouble (SRW): "Whoa!" Rock notices and starts to move out of the way on his own. He probably didn't actually need that much help, but since he's focusing on Spark Man he also doesn't notice Gen moving to intercept the attack.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "They're not very good at counterattacks..."
Trouble (SRW): ((That action was obvious supposed to be before Gen got hit XD; ))
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Owowowow..."
Zs1: [Lily] As if to counter her point, 2 Met's pop up and fire little energy balls, while one of the far larger ones is about to fall on her head (react)
Zs1: (Rock and Rider, action)
Zs1: After much commotion, yet another "person" reveals themselves, but they don't seem too eager to get into the fray. Rather, he's content to standing in the entrance of the foreman's office.
Trouble (SRW): Rock: (after spotting Gen) Are you alright?!

Mist3r (SRW): Casshern freezes. Now's not a good time, he's got a horde of zombie cannibal robots shambling towards him...
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ahhh... stings, but I'll live. I'm a Kamen Rider and Kamen Riders don't die easily!" *He did spot Spark Man's earlier gaff and swaps out another switch for the Schop Switch, a large shovel appearing on his hand... and he starts scooping out dirt and launching it at Spark Man+
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily: "Oh come on, you're doing this on purpose...!" She uses her superior speed to boost out of the way and fly back - and with ten wings instead of six, she's even faster than usual! Well, nine, because she uses one of the Psiguns to send some homing lasers at the two Metools while their faces are still showing. +
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Huh? Casshern?"
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Hmm hmm, Casshern. My its been so long. Say... since I ordered you to kill Luna."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern is frozen in place. He doesn't even notice the Ruin-infected robots getting closer. "Who.. are you?" He ordered him to kill Luna? Who was he? And... why?
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze uses the attention on Casshern to start attacking mercilessly. But then she stops when she hears a voice. She turns to look at the newcomer. "You did...what?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Who-?
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Eh?"
Zs1: [Gen] "Hey! Hey! What the heck're'ya doin! Stop throwin dirt around!" he protests, trying to charge up electricity, but every smack of dirt just dissipates the charge.
Zs1: Braiking "Dont give me that sad look. Did you forget that I was the one who ordered you too kill The Sun Named Moon?"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What? Is that true?"
Mist3r (SRW): Well, techinically, yes, he most definitely did forget. "... Why?" It's all he can bring himself to say. His voice is cracking.
Zs1: [Lily] Yes, yes they were! Easily the giant is outmanuevered, while the smaller try to hop around and turn to face and shoot her again, only to get blipped into oblivion, little orange hats rolling about, quite empty.
Nana (SRW): Lyuze on the other hand doesn't give a flying fuck about Casshern's sensibilities and rounds on the man. "You're the cause of all this? You're the one who brought the Ruin into the world?"
Trouble (SRW): Deciding not to worry himself too much about Gen right now, since he seems okay, Rock turns his attention back to Spark Man and switches weapons to Rolling Cutter before launching a few blades at the electric Robot Master. Time to get a bit more serious. +
Zs1: Braiking Boss: Only one is capable of ruling the world...there is no need for two suns, that is why I gave the order...for YOU to kill Luna!" He continues to wear the same smug look on his face despite everyone else.
Knux (SRW): Gen: "...another person wanting to rule the world?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ...
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern: "Who... who are you?" Was this the 'emperor' of what Gatsby called the 'Empire of Free Synthetics?' It didn't last very long according to him due to the Ruin causing it to collapse into total anarchy, but..
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "If what you're saying is true, then explain why Casshern doesn't remember any of this!" Yeah, she knows he had amnesia. But what caused it? She's totally fishing for info.
Zs1: [Rock] Busy trying to dodge dirt, again, Rock gets an easy short at the Robot Master, cutting into him once again, and making him stagger. "You're not playing fair kid!
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: You have a lot of nerve. Luna was quite possibly one of the few good things left in this world, why would you kill her!?
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Trauma I figure. The mere shock of killing a God, wouldn't that drive anyone to want to block that out?"
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Grr... you treat this so casually! How can you be so horrible?!"
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's totally frozen. "You... you had me do that, just to gain power?" He doesn't notice those zombies getting any closer. This was... so awful.
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille)
Nana (SRW): *And now Lyuze's livid so she's just going to grab the closest thing to her (that would be a Met, hello) and chunk it at Braiking Boss+
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "I've had a question for you for a while, though. Surely you don't mind me changing the subject from something so tradgic. Don't you wonder why it is you who are so immune to the Ruin.". He simulateously ignored Lily and Rock, whom are oddly immune also? Moreso, he almost completely ignored the others, simply to get in Casshern's head.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Whatever was the reason, Casshern is not the same minion you can just order around anymore. He's a different person now!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille's anger was escalating. Was this man's ego so great that he'd simply ignore the world around him?
*** Corel (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Lyuze] Throwing a single Met at him... To counter that, he just catches it, and looks at the little machine man inside. "Cute... someting that's yet to catch the infection. You're quite the lucky one.." And then he just CRUSHES it in his hand.
Mist3r (SRW): ... Okay, sure, he'll bite, that is something he's been wondering. "I... I admit, I was curious."
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Tell me, when you did it, did you tear her apart. Did you revel in your victory? How much of her blood was on your hands. Or maybe your eyes? Your face?"
*** Specs (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern brings his hands to his face. The flashbacks... "Who are you?" The voice in his head again... That should answer Braiking Boss's question.
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille reigned it in, though. He learned his lesson with Scirocco, blindly lashing out will do nothing here. He focuses on Spark Man, and fired his Beam Rifle multiple times in the Robot Master's direction.+
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Did it never occur that perhaps killing her made you so immortal? That her blood, as you spilled it, has seeped into your body."
*** Tengu (SRWmod) has left the conversation.
*** Tengu (SRWmod) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Kamille] The far larger shots (compared to the Robot Master), lay into Spark Man's back while he was trying to charge up to strike at Rock again. But after that, even he's sparking and trying to hold himself together.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's eyes widened. He falls to his knees. "That..." He has no words. It does explain everything, though. Why the Ruined want to eat him. Why he's immune to the Ruin. Why he's immortal, and why he heals so quickly without needing repairs. Why the White Chalice scientists seem to think they can make a vaccine from his cells.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Rock, he's open, end him!
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Enough."
Zs1: [Gen, Rock] "That's... that's hardly fair. I'll just... take you down with me! SPAAAAARK SHOOOOOCK!" THe Robot Master begins to crackle with energy like he were something completely from another series! As electricity gathered about him, it was all discharged in one massive ball of frustration and current! (react)
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "What are you trying to do with Casshern here?"
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "Yes, let it sink in, like her blood. Her blood flows in you. Her blood makes you what you are."
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Stop tormenting him. He already does it enough to himself on his own!"
Trouble (SRW): Rock again moves to dodge out of the way of the shockwave, ducking behind some debrise.
Zs1: (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40wJSYGaARE)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40wJSYGaARE
He finally regards someone else now. "Why, I can't let an old companion just suffer without his memories. I thought seeing him again while I was here, I'd help him." Oh what false sincerity.
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze notices the surrounding Infected and goes after one that has gotten particularly close to Casshern. "He's breaking him." She slashes and slashes and slashes, trying to get through the Infected. "Casshern, snap out of it!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "You 'helped' enough. Get out of here."
Zs1: [Lyuze] While you, and Casshern are slowly surrounded, you manage to take down a few more, forcing them to climb over one another to get at the two in their middle.
Zs1: Braiking Boss: "What I came for isn't here, so I think I shall. Do have a lovely day, my old subordinate." Still grinning, he steps back into the small office. Wouldn't he just be cornered in there?
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern stared at the ground. "There... was nothing I could do after all, was there...?"
Trouble (SRW): From his hiding spot Rock sends another couple of Rolling Cutters at Spark Man in hopes of finishing him off. +
Zs1: [Rock] THe huge blob of energy smashes into the debris, but in blowing it away, the rubble beats in to the Blue Bomber. But not enough that he can't get that shot in to finally destroy the machine!
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily)
Trouble (SRW): Rock staggered, but at least it wasn't as bad as actually getting hit by the full force of that attack would've been, and now the weapon copy ability was activated by Spark Man's defeat, even as Rock steadies himself to look at where the Robot Master's remains were.
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list again?)
Nana (SRW): *"Apparently not. That...man...it's all his fault.." Lyuze growls in frustration as they keep coming in. She keeps slashing but is starting to visibly tire down. "But now is...not the time to worry about...that!" She huffs, slashing at another enemy. "Get up!"+
Zs1: Enemies: Cyborgs x14, Giant Met x5?, Met DX x4, Hammer Joe x4, Needle Man
Zs1: [Rock] Where Spark Man once stood, there is a shiny! A thing on the ground, besides a smoldering mark where he blew up.. Perhaps it's something you've been after, yes?!
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern slowly forces himself to get up. "I... You're right." He can't let himself, or Lyuze, die here. And that man owes him answers. "We're going after him. He just went into that office..." He activates the installed commlink in his helmet. "We're going after him... keep those larger robots off of us, alright?"
Trouble (SRW): Rock: !?
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Lily, status report on Casshern?
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "He seems to be alright now."
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Got it, Casshern. "
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern nods at Lyuze. He then leaps into the air, jumping from catwalk to catwalk, determined to chase after Braiking Boss. That room was isolated. Surely he'd be in there, right? And I'm not tempting fate?
Trouble (SRW): Rock ran over to the debrise and picked up the object. It's one of the Power Crystals the Robot Masters stole! "Alright, got another one!" Though speaking of the robot masters, where had that other one wandered off to?
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Thank god for that much.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ... Gentarou, Rock, any sight of the other Robot Master?
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily drops down to the ground and starts floating right above it, moving in circles around the enemies. A giant arm cannon materializes around her hand, and she uses it to fire large, exploding balls of blue energy at the enemies! She's not discriminating with the targets, though she tries to fire at least a few at Needle Man.+
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Ah, no sign yet... did he get away?"
Zs1: [Casshern] Something bursts from the roof of the room, meeting up with Casshern in mid air, and wasting absolutely no time trying to cut into him. It looks like some sort of humanoid spider, as two of it's limbs try to cut Casshern's arms off (react)
Tengu (SRWmod): # Casshern
Zs1: [Lily, Gen] As if on cue, a stream of spikes blow through the wall of the main facility. Streams of them stop and start, as if aiming blindly, while trying to actually hit something. And the closest thing to a target is the two of you! (react)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Whoop!" *And Gen's going to push away from those needles, hoping to land away from those things!+
Zs1: The thing attacking Casshern: (Link: http://images.wikia.com/casshan/images/d/d1/Dune_Masked.png)http://images.wikia.com/casshan/images/d/d1/Dune_Masked.png

Nana (SRW): *Lyuze feels like those little colorful Met things aren't quite so useless so she grabs another one, throwing it at another enemy.+
Tengu (SRWmod): * "This again!" Lily takes up to the skies, trying to put some obstacles/buildings between herself and the attacker! Her response shots at Needle Man can come now... +
Zs1: (It's not your turn Lyuze)
Nana (SRW): (Oh, woops, sorry!)
Zs1: [Gen] A couple needles hit you're arm, but, it's far from fatal. Painful but, they're not sticking out of you at least!
[Lily](action react) The spread of attacks largely removes the last of teh Mets, and another of the Hammer Joes.
[Lily](react react) However, the shots are largely blind as there's an entire building, roof, walls, and all between yourself and Needle Man. He seems to be using the cover of the building itself to avoid being from the outside. Quite clever of him!
Tengu (SRWmod): # Casshern?
Zs1: (And for formality, your support was denied by other stuff earlier, it's clear now)
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily told Casshern she's going to cover him, and so she does. The moment the spider-like robot jumps out from its hideout, two energy balls are shot into its direction! +
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Keh...!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Gentarou, Rock, get clear of the wall, I'm going to blow it to pieces.
Zs1: [Kamille] The Giant Mets opt to play 'smart' as one from the ground fires energy balls at the Zeta, while another is up in the air again, trying to drop down on him.
*** Mist3r (SRW) has left the conversation.

Camiu (SRW): *Ah ha ha ha-no. Kamille's moving in circles to dodge the bullets from below, firing upwards at the falling Met with a Grenade!+
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Tch, right!" *And Gen's going to get away from that wall!+
Trouble (SRW): Rock does as he's told and gets clear too. +
Zs1: [Casshern/Lily] As the energy comes flying forth, the odd claw-limbs close back against it's body, but two more project from it's chest, cutting the energy balls in half... sort of. The energy clearly splits, but the blades are mangled just as well.
Tengu (SRWmod): (actface, not reactface)
Knux (SRW): ((Whoops!))
Trouble (SRW): ((I don't know what that means. XD; ))
Zs1: (Gen is Lateface. Just silliness. Action!)
Knux (SRW): *And as Gen gets out of the way, he switchs on Launcher and pelts Needle Man (and any other Mets/Hammer Joes/what have you) with random missiles!+
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern lands on the ground, but backflips once he hits the ground to regain his composure. (Link: http://randomc.net/image/Snapshots/Casshern%20Sins%20-%2001%20-%20Large%2007.jpg)His facemask then closes, and his eyes light up. There's a bloody gash across his chest, but it's already beginning to close up.
Trouble (SRW): Rock does as he's told and moves out of the way too, and as he goes, he decides switches to Gemini Laser and also attacks Needle Man with it +
Zs1: [Kamille] This time you have the right idea, attacking from below, or, attacking from it's exposed underbelly. The insides blow up, but as punishment, the huge orange dome lands on the Zeta's nosecone, weighing you down and screwing up trajectory
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Watch out, he went berserk..."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "He still does that?!"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: We still have the restraining bolt.
Zs1: [Kamille] ^The orange dome lands on your head, blinding you, and pulling your torso forward
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Son of a-!
Zs1: [Gen] At least from below, you can see into the main facility and fire back. It's a straight shot to hit Needle Man, as well as the machinery inside. "Just wonderful! Go shoot up somethin else, would ja!" he shouts, firing back with a stream of needles.
Knux (SRW): *and there goes the shield again to protect him!+
Zs1: [Gen] This time it's far worse, as every needle from the stream hits the shield, damaging it so badly that it's more of a shield of needles. The switch overloads and shuts itself off, it's cosmic energy spent!
[Rock] Firing the laser, it's dodged while Needle Man is trying to not be hit by Gen's rockets, but, not taking into account that they reflect, he's hit square in the ass, sending him flying forward towards the entrance!
Zs1: (Lyuze, Kamille)
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Yikes, not good!"
Zs1: [Casshern] The strange machine-man lands on the roof of the office, staring at Casshern with devoid eyes. "Casshern! You are my enemy, my nemesis, Luna's Killer!!...My SCURGE" Tearing the tattered cloak off himself, he jumps forth again, his own, plus four bladed arms extending, and moving about him like a glimmering storm.
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille flipped the giant worker's helmet so that his Zeta Altered was standing on it, before kicking it at the wall Needleman was hiding behind!+
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern says nothing. This guy has way too many blades coming out of him, he can't dodge them all.
Mist3r (SRW): He's forced on the defensive right out of the gate.
Zs1: [Kamille] The giant helmet smashes into the wall, bringing that whole side of the building down, and plenty of rubble down on top of Needle Man. However the helmet itself... It's stopped dead before it hits him; Needle Man's head having ejected and stopped the shell... erhm, helmet in it's tracks!
Nana (SRW): *Lyuze was kept back to keep fighting off the Infected that were left, which was still quite a bit. She takes a moment to catch her rest before launching at an incoming enemy, blades at the ready.+
*** Specs (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] (because I meant to put a react prompt there) Blades start swinging and swiping into Casshern, cutting into him, but they don't sever any limbs, simply drawing plenty of blood and tearing up his suave white outfit.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: ... Really?
Zs1: Needle Man: "Yeah really! Just what did you expect to happen? I'd stand there and get steamrolled?"
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: No, actually, I was expecting you to try and catch it with your limbs, not your head.
Camiu (SRW): Kamille: Wait, why am I arguing this?
Zs1: [Lyuze] It's you against fourteen other cyborgs, and even some of the other rabble are converging on you as an easy target! While you take down two, a huge black mace smashes into your back!
Zs1: [Kamille] "Becuase you're as hard HATTED as I am!" Reeling his head back, he fires it again, smashing the orange dome and sending it flying right back at the Zeta's chest! (react)
Zs1: (Casshern, Lily)
Tengu (SRWmod): (enemy list?)
Mist3r (SRW): *Blades dude is crazy fast, and those blades just keep coming. But he has to break the momentum somehow. Casshern attempts to flash step away, reappearing on the ceiling. He then boosts downwards, attempting to slam his fist down onto his head.+
Camiu (SRW): *Kamille tries to catch it, only to be sent flying by the unexpected force behind the giant hard hat! He's going clear of the battle field!+ "That pun was terrible~!"

Instead, she lands on the ground and starts charging up a large glowing ball at the end of her cannon. "Energy gathering... Completely. Charge Mode on! E.V.E. Shot!" With her eyes glowing brighly with power, she fires a huge beam towards the other enemy robots and cyborgs, including Needle Man! +
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] Dune's momentum carries him forward as you move out of the way. Fortunately for you, he's clearly suffering from Ruin, so his reaction time is hampered, letting your fist bash him in the head before he gets another swipe, digging the blade into your arm.
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: [Lily] Lyuze is still dealing with Ruin cyborgs on the ground, but from where you are, the shot tears through half their forces, and even the Hammer Joe hiding among them. The beam rips through the building as well, where a still dumbstruck Needle Man was looking at the fruits of his labor. Blasted with the huge shot, he manages to stagger himself back up, his head hanging loose, and one of his arms blown away!
Zs1: (Rock, Gen, action)
Knux (SRW): ((Enemy List?))
Zs1: Cyborgs x6, Giant Met x4?, Hammer Joe x3, Needle Man (heavily), Dune (Ruin'd)
Trouble (SRW): Rock decides to take the opportunity to finish Needle Man off, firing another Gemini Laser at him +
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Knux (SRW): *Gen takes the opportunity to take care of the Giant Mets, another hail of missiles go their way!+
Zs1: [Rock] Not even needing to reflect the shot this time, Needle Man gets one last look at Megaman before exploding, leaving behind a scorched floor and something shiny again!

Trouble (SRW): Rock's Copy
Trouble (SRW): *Rock's Copy Chip collects another weapon as Rock runs over and snatches up the next Power Crystal. "Got'cha! Dr. Light's gonna be happy to have this back."
Zs1: Copy get!
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Gen] Trying to jump out of the way of what should be 'linear' missiles, one of the giant Mets catches one on the uunderside, hollowing out the orange dome easily
Zs1: (Lyuze, Casshern)
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Mist3r (SRW): *Casshern doesn't let that slash bother him for even a second. He charges back into the maelstrom of blades again, but flashsteps at the last second. He'd then reappear behind Dune, and try to attack from behind. &
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] With one blade in Casshern's arm, he tries to converge the working 3 into him as well, going to crush him all at once. But they completely miss, as Dune takes a hit from behind (Continue)
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Nana (SRW): @Casshern
Zs1: (Approved, Nana, now stop DCing)
Nana (SRW): *After being bashed on and avoided an enormous attack, Lyuze finally has time to noticed just what is going on with Casshern. She quickly jumps into action, her weapons going in to attack Dune while he is so clearly focused on Casshern&
Zs1: [Lyuze] As Dune turns around to swipe at Casshern again, it exposes his back to Lyuze, who was never a factor in this fight, as long as he was concerned. So imagine his surprise as he takes a slash to the back! (continue)
Nana (SRW): *Surprise was always the best way to get rid of a pest. Thankfully it worked out for her. She digs both her swords in at that time, using them to anchor herself in and pull her arms up, towards his head.+
Zs1: [Lyuze] As the other sword digs in, he stumbles. Only barely to the blade arms reach back and swipe at her, trying to keep his head intact, staggering forth when he makes her back off, lest she wants to lose both her arms
Mist3r (SRW): # Layuze
Mist3r (SRW): Lyuze*
Zs1: (Approved)
Mist3r (SRW): *Oh, no you don't, Dune. Just as he sees those blades come out, Casshern follows through on his initial attack. His hand moves in between those blades, attempting to impale Dune straight through the chest, but he won't be hitting any vitals with the way those blades are moving.
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Zs1: [Casshern] The blades are snapped off in the process of Dune taking hands through the chest, leaving him to slump over and fall down, face first, onto the dirt.
Zs1: As Dune lays on the ground, Ruin rotting him, there's footsteps from the remains of the main facility. Light, soft footsteps. Slowly, a small woman... nay, girl walks out, the sun gleaming off her silver hair.

*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern freezes.
Zs1: Dune: "L-Luna! Luna, please..." Dune seems genuinely convinced this is the very woman he fought to protect, and the one who can save his broken body.
Mist3r (SRW): In fact, his eyes suddenly darken, and the facemask reopenes.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Luna? But isn't she..."
Zs1: Luna: "I can't heal you. I won't associate with anything that smells of death."
Nana (SRW): Lyuze...isn't sure what to do. She stares in wonder before taking a step towards the woman. "Luna...."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's eyes widen. "This...?"
Zs1: Dune's mind is blown, he lays there, reaching out to her. "Luna... Please..."
Zs1: Luna: "You're disgusting. Just lay there and die peacefully."
Trouble (SRW): Rock: That's Luna...?
Nana (SRW): But the words that Luna was speaking...what...she...? "Luna?"
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "I expected her to be more... Compassionate..."
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Zs1: From there, she refuses to acknowledge Dune at all. "Casshern..." Oh look, she rememers you. "Lyuze." And her too.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern is in shock. "Are you... really Luna?" Because he agrees. He expected her have a bit more empathy. He feels bad for Dune.
Nana (SRW): "Luna, why? Why won't you help him?" She remembered Dune, but....the Dune from her memories did not look like this. The Luna she swore to protect did not sound like this.
Zs1: Luna: "I am... Luna. The one who grants healing. But I hate things like that. That smell of death.
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Luna's a kid?"
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Everything that needs healing smells of death..."
Zs1: Luna takes a few more steps forward, seeming to move to approach Casshern, the one among them that can never die. Can never rust or rot or be hurt.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern's a bit too shocked to really do anything about it. Approach at your leisure, Luna.
Mist3r (SRW): "You can... end the Ruin, can't you?"
Nana (SRW): Oh... oh wow that hurt. Lyuze isn't sure what to do now. Here she was, the woman she and her sister failed to protect. The Sun Named Moon that Casshern had killed but...she was so different.

Zs1: Luna reaches a hand out, but in an instant, a red blur appears behind her, and wraps an arm around her torso.
Trouble (SRW): Rock: ?!
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily aims her gun! "What?!"
Zs1: ???: "Sorry, but I've got much more pressing issues with this woman right now."

Trouble (SRW): Rock: You!
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Hey!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Protoman!"
Nana (SRW): "Luna!!"
Trouble (SRW): ((It's Break Man))
Zs1: Swinging it's shield around in front of her, in the same blur that he appeared with, he vanishes, taking Luna along with her. Not even a goodbye or dramatic speech!
Trouble (SRW): ((We don't know that's Protoman yet))
Zs1: ((It is Break Man. He's different, you see!))
Tengu (SRWmod): (okay.jpg)
Tengu (SRWmod): * Lily: "Breakman!"
*** Nana (SRW) has left the conversation.
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern was about to reach out for that hand, when she was swiped up. "Let her go!"
*** Nana (SRW) has joined the conversation.
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "Get your hands off her or I'll shoot you!"
Zs1: What an exciting twist! Though we don't know what brought together these forces, one thing is certain today, those rumors of Luna were true! She's been seen by your own .... 8.9... TEN EYES! Yes, there's five of you now.
Trouble (SRW): "Dang it! Get back here!"
Nana (SRW): Lyuze is visibly shaken. "Luna...."
Knux (SRW): Gen: "Gyaaaah!"
Tengu (SRWmod): Lily: "He's too fast... I couldn't risk hitting her instead of him..."
Mist3r (SRW): Casshern...collapses to his knees. That was Luna. The Luna. The only one who could end the Ruin, literally within arm's reach. Even if she was clearly different... they needed her. And just as quickly as she appeared, she was gone.
Zs1: And while we know she's alive and well, this conflict with Casshern's memories. And who was that mysterious red "Break Man"? What's he want with her? Who was the man who knew Casshern!? So many questions, and so many answers, next time on
