Mission 034: Four Cinderellas (part 2)
Wyverncakes 12:41 am
[Kamillle] The Gundam's thrusters flare up and its vulcans begin to shower the Messala, but it quickly swerves out of the way before moving in for a stab at the Gundam's flank... just as a particular Asshimar comes hurtling in from the other angle, stabbing as well!
Overman Zappa 12:41 am
Gainer: "I don't want to fight a friend! Not like this! But I'm not going to let you beat me Cynthia Lane!"
Wyverncakes 12:41 am
Jerid: "YOU! If I can't recover the Gundam, I can at least see you killed!"
(React: Kamille)
Joseph Fischer 12:42 am
*Kamille gonna cut thrusters and let gravity take over, boosting downward and shooting upwards with his vulcans at Jerid and Sc-someguy he doesn't know
+
Wyverncakes 12:43 am
[Gainer] King Gainer's sword crashes into one of the arms, facing a bit more reistance than Gainer might have expected, but it still tears through it... just in time for the Overman to get snared by the other limb!
Wyverncakes 12:43 am
(Continue: Cynthia)
[Kamille] Vulcans are, admittedly laughable compared to the armor both the Messala and this particular Asshimar has backing it up and they're not breaking off at all. The Asshimar itself lunges forward, swiping again, and the Messala switches to mobile suit mode before firing a beam at you!
(React again: Kamille)
Wyverncakes 12:45 am
(Allenby, and Gainer, once this exchange with Cynthia is resolved you can take another turn)
Joseph Fischer 12:46 am
Kamille Twists to the left, snatching the hyper Bazooka from his back and launching Shotgun shells at both of his persuers!+
Wyverncakes 12:47 am
[Kamille] The twist buys you time... not much, but enough to get the bazooka out and fire! The Asshimar gets hammered by the shells, a few non-vital parts catching sparks as it's forced to skirt away... but before you can fire again the Messala's beam rifle spears through the bazooka perfectly, blowing it and the Gundam's arm to smithereens!
macprysm 12:48 am
Dominator doesn't care about losing an arm! It just regrows the lost limb, the sharpened blade diving into King Gainer's muscle engines! She ~IS~ avoiding the cockpit, though...+
Wyverncakes 12:48 am
Scirroco: "Leiutenent, I must thank you for that! Our combined efforts have defanged the Gundam considerably!"
All you hear on Jerid's end is annoyed grumbling
Joseph Fischer 12:49 am
Kamille: So... this is what fighting a newtype is like!
Wyverncakes 12:50 am
[Cynthia] Gainer is sure to appreciate that... but the blade still stabs into King Gainer HARD! Gainer, the force makes your whole machine rock from the impact, and in the confusion not only does a HUGE crack suddenly form on your main cockpit viewer, you bang your head pretty damn hard!
... But... if you can still focus, King Gainer can still fight!
(Allenby, Gainer)
Doc S 12:51 am
Allenby: C'mon Gundam, it's go time!
*Allenby's going to take this one step at a time, facing down the black Gundam. And by taking it one step at a time, she's going to charge in at high speeds with a flurry of punches, each one of them powerful enough to shatter armor! If that doesn't work, her beam ribbon is already flying into her hand&
Wyverncakes 12:53 am
[Allenby] The Psyco Gundam might tower over the Nobel by a solid 25 meters, but Allenby makes up for size with determination and punchspam! The Gundam tries to use its damaged shield to stop the attack, but it breaks before long... only to suddenly reveal that the Gundam's chest is suddenly glowing, right before beam cannons fire on you!
(React: Allenby)
Overman Zappa 12:54 am
Gainer gets bounced around inside the cockpit... hard enough that the Overman loses altitude. Groaning and OBVIOUSLY hurt from a bang on the head... "Cynthia... this... isn't a game... I already told you I don't want to fight you..."
Doc S 12:54 am
*Fading to the side and leaping into the air, her boosters fired as Nobel hurled that beam ribbon towards the opponent, the weapon spiralling around in what appears to be a rather effective use of combat gymnastics! With any luck, she'll catch the opponent in its wave of damage!+
Wyverncakes 12:56 am
[Allenby] The beam cannons just barely manage to catch the Nobel's "hair", and fortunately nothing else as the ribbon surges at the Psyco Gundam. The pilot mistakes it for more shot than saber though, and the ribbon does tear by into it somewhat, but only until it's batted away. This thing isn't going down without a fight!
macprysm 12:56 am
Cynthia's giddy. "I...I did it! I WON! Wahahaaa!" Dominator chases after the falling Overman.
Doc S 12:56 am
Allenby: Hah, tis but a scratch!
Overman Zappa 12:58 am
*"But I'm not going to let you win!" King Gainer takes up a stance, holding his sword up like a knight. SUDDENLY BLACK CLOUDS SUDDENLY COLD. SUDDENLY SNOW kicking up from behind King Gainer&
Wyverncakes 12:58 am
Seeing that all the power players seem to be distracted with other things, Epimetheus takes the chance to charge across the battlefield at the volcano, smashing apart one poorly-piloted Asshimar as more laughter eminates from the machine. "Epi is so great! Even without a Core it's the strongest iDOL EVER!"
Wyverncakes 12:58 am
(Anyone want to take a potshot at her, go ahead)
(And Canon, Devon)
cubey@aol.pl 12:58 am
*Devon is not going to focus on smallfry. But it so happens that she has to land on something, so she aims to make that thing a low-altitude Asshimar. And as soon as her fall is broken, she utilises Black Cloud's titanic strength in an effort of forcing the cockpit hatch open. If successful - the pilot gets grabbed one-handed and unceremoniously thrown away. Maybe he'll survive, maybe not. The altitude was kinda low after all. Not that Devon cares.&
Wyverncakes 12:59 am
[Gainer] A strong resolve coupled with a sudden drop in temperature. Damaged though it and its pilot is, King Gainer hasn't lost yet!
(Continue, Gainer)
macprysm 12:59 am
Cynthia: ...odd weather for a volcanic area....What are you up to, Game champ?
Aero 12:59 am
*Surprisingly Canon leaps away from the White Chalice units and aims at Epi with the Garm firing at it as she descended towards it. &
Doc S 1:00 am
*"Nobel Hula Hoop!" Allenby had noticed the girl on running for the core, and she was out of range. So she threw a beam hula hoop at her+
Wyverncakes 1:00 am
[Devon] The Asshimar's cockpit gets torn open rather abruptly... and hell, it actually gets torn clean off! And that pilot? Well, he gets thrown possibly to his death. Or maybe he'll land on a trampoline or something. But congrats, Devon, you just stole an Asshimar!
(Continue: Devon)
cubey@aol.pl 1:01 am
*Devon is not a pilot, but she knows enough to make a mobile suit go forward at full speed. And that's what she does. "Get out of the way." Kamille gets a short warning. Jerid and Scirocco do not - and it's their group that Devon wants to collide with. She'll Shift just mere moments before the impact.+
Overman Zappa 1:01 am
*King Gainer still stands there, but icy winds and snow blow toward the Dominator. Chunks of ice start freezing over the Dominator (and probably other stuff nearby... it's... sort of an AoE like that). When large enough chunks of ice look like they'll slow down or stop Dominator, Gainer starts his Overskill-speed charge to lop off Dominator's arms (again) +
Wyverncakes 1:02 am
[Allenby, Canon] Epimetheus barely reacts to the hoop in time to evade, and skirts backwards just in time for the Fafner to pelt it with more Garm shots and stand in its way. The laughter inside of Epimetheus grows a touch more arrogant though
"Oooh! That red machine... it kinda looks like a tiny iDOL though... but it's totally not better than one, and ESPECIALLY not my Epi!"
(Continue: Canon)
Aero 1:05 am
*Canon held out the broken Ruge Lance out at the larger machine as she descended towards it, Canon was hoping to use gravity in a simpler way to try to stab Epi with the Lance.+
Wyverncakes 1:05 am
[Devon] Scirroco's Newtype senses are all the warning he needs. Jerid though? Jerid's shit out of luck. The Asshimar hurtles forward and he barely has the reflexes to eject in time, both Asshimars blowing up spectacularly!
[Gainer] Cynthia, the ice is cold... REALLY fucking cold! The Dominator is starting to completely freeze over, and King Gainer is suddenly attacking. With no resistance the machine lops off both of the Dominator's arms!
Wyverncakes 1:07 am
[Canon] Bad news. Epimetheus has gravity shields too! The Fafner collides with one instead, and unceremoniously gets swatted away by the larger machine. "Oooh! Turns out I was right, wasn't I? Teeny little pretend iDOLs can't keep up with the real thing!"
(Cheng, Haruka)
Aero 1:08 am
"This isn't an iDOL it's a Fafner." She sounds rather deadpan.
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:09 am
*Haruka has Imber stand up, his fist-armor locking into place. "Look, I don't know who you are, but please, stop fighting! Imber and I have nothing against you!"&
VJockey 1:10 am
*Cheng. What does he do? He throws his spent gatling gun and Autocannon aside and pulling out the Assault Rifle that the Behemoth had on it. Also notice the shiny looking bayonet. Still fully intent on taking Canon down he rushes at her, firing in short controlled bursts while fully intent on impaling her Fafner on the gun's blade&
macprysm 1:10 am
Cynthia: "W-what...I've seen this before...Overfreeze?!" Her teeth are chattering in the cockpit, and it's getting hard to maneuver. "Th-that's a neat trick, Gainer...I'm glad you're finally getting serious, Gainer! But...let me tell you something about this overman called the Dominator! But THIS GAME IS STILL ON! My Dominator's perfectly capable of Defrosting your Overfreeze! So now you know!"
Wyverncakes 1:11 am
[Haruka] The girl inside of Nubilem just snorts and then charges, punching at you again. "Bullshit! You're the one piloting him.... even though you have no right to!" Not that you can see it, but her fists are shaking. "Look at what you've done to him... he's hurt and I KNOW what you've been doing with him! Atmospheric re-entry... fighting Festum, FESTUM of all things... You're going to KILL Imber one of these days!"
macprysm 1:11 am
Dominator's...de-icing on it's own! It quickly picks the assault back up, lashing out with long, bladed tentacles!+
Wyverncakes 1:11 am
"Why... Why, Imber!" She growls. "Why are you making me do this to you?"
(React: Haruka)
[Cheng] The bullets are coming at a slower rate while being far more accurate now, and the Behemoth's gunblade glints dangerously! Cheng's still got every intent to kill you, Canon!
(React: Canon)
Wyverncakes 1:14 am
[Cynthia] The ice melts bit by bit, and along with it, the Dominator's arms regrow before the machine continues its assault on you, Gainer! Is there ANY way you're going to be able to take this thing out?
(React: Gainer)
Overman Zappa 1:15 am
*King Gainer is still using OverSpeed, so those tiny little spikes are nothing to deflect, as it swings it's chain gun and aims to bat the strikes away. Afterward, King Gainer shoots to the underside of the Dominator, drawing the chain sword upward
Aero 1:15 am
*Considering she just bounced off of Epi Canon is simply going to boost off in another direction again before landing using whatever cover might be near. In this case Epi itself position herself again so that the larger iDOL would have to deal with the gunfire. "Allies of cowards are also cowards..."+
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:15 am
*Haruka gets up Imber's arms in a block, trying to weather the assualt. "Hey, we're just trying to help out where we can!"+
Overman Zappa 1:15 am
+
Wyverncakes 1:17 am
[Gainer] King Gainer's speed puts it leagues beyond the Dominator's, and again all those little spikes are cut away before the machine zooms by, cutting across the Dominator's undersection cleanly!
[Haruka] Furiously, Chihya punches again in anger. "Helping out WHO? Did Imber agree to this? Did you ever ask him? You're garbage that just takes him wherever you want to go, with no consideration for him. You... YOU'RE UNFIT TO BE AN IDOLMASTER!" That last one had enough force behind it to knock Imber back even further!
Wyverncakes 1:20 am
[Canon] The bullets do indeed mainly get warded off by Epimetheus unknowingly... and suddenly, Cheng Epimetheus is running towards you. "Oh! A really big mech, like Epi but with a lot of guns... You're no match for him either!" Cue meaty punch!
(React: Cheng)
(Cynthia, Kamille)
macprysm 1:22 am
Cynthia: You may be fast, but still no match for Dominator! *The cockpit slides up, bits of legs stretching out to take the hit, and both arms fuse into a multi-spiked club of a blade! * This is it... GAME OVER!

Joseph Fischer 1:22 am

arachnion01@gmail.com 1:24 am
*Haruka gets tossed around inside the cockpit as Imber goes backwards. But she keeps her guard up, even as a little bit of blood drips down her forehead. "…I…I'm not the best…but at least I'm not trying to hurt him! Please, can't we settle this without fighting?"+
Overman Zappa 1:24 am
*Gainer shoots to make a full retreat from the attack, way, way out of range. Flipping around, Gainer comes back in on OverSpeed, chainblade revving and going for "head" of the Overman!... but from where? BEHIND! +
cubey@aol.pl 1:25 am
*One Shifter, still phased out of reality, charges through the battlefield. Good luck aiming your punches any good, Epimetheus - because as soon as Devon is near your feet, she Shifts back in to the material layer and tries to topple you over or at least off-balance, all her muscles straining with extreme effort even with the armor's assistance.+
Wyverncakes 1:26 am
[Kamille] The Messala is dancing around your shots, the experience gap between you and Scirroco becoming clearer and clearer with every miss. He's not even trying to fight back at all. "Your skill is laughable!' he booms victoriously. "I need not raise even one finger to defeat you, pilot!" And then suddenly, Kamille, a jolt of pain runs through your head. The black Gundam is towering underneath you, slashing its saber at you with inhuman speed!
(React: Kamille)
Joseph Fischer 1:28 am
*"Gck!" Dashes back and behind the Psycho Gundam. He was clearly outclassed, but he was starting to get an idea of how these people fought...+
Wyverncakes 1:29 am
[Devon and Cheng] Devon's shifted form slips through the shields without trouble, and hits Epimetheus hard. The size difference is a problem, yes, but the machine was in the middle of an attack and stumbles forward, amidst Riffa's exclaims of shock. "W-what? Epi, why are you falling?"
Wyverncakes 1:30 am
[Haruka] Chihaya just snorts. "No. Because if Imber won't take me back as long as you're around... then I'll kill you."
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:31 am

Wyverncakes 1:31 am
And yet Nubilem pauses for a moment... and then bolts past the defense-minded Imber, straight to the Volcano

Cheng: [Mutters a quick word of thanks to Devon and rushed past Epimetheus. Say what you want about him right now. But he's REALLY got it in him to take Canon down. A parting snipe at the Idolmaster was appropriate however.] Don't get in my way girl! You aren't my target!
Wyverncakes 1:31 am

[Gainer] But speed has its own advantages against a regenerating foe! King Gainer is coming from behind now, Cynthia... and faster than ever? Are you gonna be able to take it down in time?
(React: Cynthia)
macprysm 1:32 am
Cynthia: DOMINATOR! OVERSKILL! Dominator's limbs aren't stuck in any one position! The machine glows gold as king gainer rushes in. It's met with 30 different blades, closing in on him like some kind of crazy gold octopus with 30 bladed tentacles! A single, large blunt cylinder strikes from the middle, as well, inturrupting his charge!+
Aero 1:33 am
*Canon leaps up as Nubilum flies overhead trying to get a good grip on the huge machine. "You're not getting to that core." &
Wyverncakes 1:33 am
[Kamille] The Mk. II backpedals, barely evading the Psyco's attack... and DAMN the pressure from the Gundam is growing to be almost unbearable!
Wyverncakes 1:35 am
[Canon] More and more bullets are coming your way even as you try to go after Nubliem, and then you crash into its shield again, just in time for the Behemoth's bullets to pound into your backside! Fuck... a few more seconds of this and you're a dead woman!
(React: Canon)
Joseph Fischer 1:35 am
Kamille: Is the pressure getting stronger? ... I can work with that!
Wyverncakes 1:36 am
[Cynthia] Dominator's not as fast... but it's fast enough!
The spike impales King Gainer, stopping it cold... and doing God knows what to the pilot!
Aero 1:37 am
*Canon ignores the Behemoth she had no time to waste with idiots and if she die trying to fufill her mission she would be find with it. Once the shield went up she boosted again the broken Ruge Lance opening up and firing several beam shots at the iDOL trying to use that to get the thing to lower it's shield as she continued to try to stop it. &
addendum: She also ejects the remaining Ruge Lance from her back letting it drop hoping that it would block a few more of the shots.+
macprysm 1:39 am
Cynthia: Oh no, I'm not done YET! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AfSvETR4AU *The single pillar rams into King Gainer, the external tentacles folding out like a flower, jettisoning the two mecha into the ground. One overman cushions the other as it grows into a single, giant mass of golden goo below it, forming...some kind of giant dessert? And King Gainer's the topping!
Joseph Fischer 1:40 am
shoutaro sneezes, thinking that he must have missed something confusing.
Wyverncakes 1:41 am
[Cynthia] Yeah, and Gainer's pretty much totaled. "Dominator" indeed
(King Gainer: Downed)
macprysm 1:42 am
Dominator's torso springs up, both arms turned into gigantic blades, as it strips the overcoat from King Gainer's body, pinning the mecha. "I...win! Hey, Gainer, how do you like me now!"
Wyverncakes 1:43 am
[Canon] Bwahahaha forget about Cheng firing on you (kicks self) and the shots do manage to at least... annoy Chihaya. Enough for the machine to suddenly spin around, delibering a swift roundhouse kick to the Fafner!
Overman Zappa 1:43 am

macprysm 1:47 am
Cynthia: "Gainer? Hey! It's impolite to not answer a lady..." The Dominator powers down, letting the disabled King Gainer rest on the ground, as Cynthia jumps out of the cockpit.

*Devon lets go the blue unit's leg. She attacks from underfoot, aiming for the groin - a very painful location for a human, but one that provides access to precious inner systems even for mechanical beings. As soon as her uppercut connects with Epimetheus, she tries to hold the outer armor - while the other hand delivers a destructive, glassing-and-shattering strike.+
Doc S 1:47 am
*That black Gundam really did not like dealing with her, and was focusing more on Kamille. So in short, she was going to go deal with the rest of the mooks that were probably still littering the field. Turning towards them, she drew her beam ribbon and twirled it in the air before unleashing a spiral of beam energy at the opponents around them, hoping to cleave limbs off the mechas.+
Overman Zappa 1:48 am
Gainer: "..." Sorry, too busy not being conscious. That... might be a trickle of blood from his forehead too. Also, where did his glasses go?
Mister Giggles 1:48 am
"I don't think so." Just then, four shots from a beam rifle came out of... seemingly nowhere. They would be aiming straight for the Mesalla, and if Scirocco didn't break off the attack, he'd take about four headshots in four different places. Because coming from straight above all of them is a speeding red mobile suit, now complete with a Zeon emblem on its left forearm.
Joseph Fischer 1:49 am
Kamille: That voice!
Wyverncakes 1:49 am
[Canon] It's a daring act, the broken Ruge Lance being tossed at Nubilem even as the unbroken one slashes at Nubilem's leg! For a second the unbroken one is stopped by the shield... but the sudden explosion from the tossed one upsets Nubilem's defenses. Chihaya can only grunt before the leg is cut into and she struggles to get away. "D-dammit!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:49 am
"Could that be-?"
Wyverncakes 1:50 am
[Devon] The blow does indeed damage Epimetheus, but now Devon lacks the power of momentum to make her blows more effective. Riffa still yelps a little inside, but is able to react enough that before Devon can try anything else, Epimitheus's leg moves to swipe at her!

[Char] The Mesalla's attack is stopped cold, and the backpedals as Scirroco exclaims in amusement. "Ah... if it isn't the Red Comet, returned again!"

Cynthia...is in shock. She's probably not gonna rejoin the battle at this point...she's trying desperately to get something out of Gainer...she might even be crying a bit. She doesn't even notice one of her all time idols out there on the battlefield.
Wyverncakes 1:55 am
[Devon] The evasive measures work and you manage to get away from Epimetheus in time... which is admittedly just what it wants as suddenly its thrusters flare and it shoots out like a bullet, straight for the volcano! "Heh! Epi's so great like that. Even when it falls it can get right back up like that!"
(Cheng, Haruka)
Mister Giggles 1:55 am
Pfft. A single Beam Rifle? Against Char? In Hyakku Shiki? Puh-leaze. Char banks slightly to the left, raising its forearm and swatting outwards, the anti-beam coating effortlessly deflecting the grazing shot. Char counters with yet another shot from the Hyakku Shiki's beam rifle, this time ariming for Mesalla's abdomen.
Char: This is what the Titans have to offer? I'm not impressed.
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:57 am
*Hey, Epimetheus. There's a white Idol on your tail. Haruka's going for a straight ram at full speed from behind on Epimetheus, since Nubilum seems to be downed already.+
Wyverncakes 1:57 am
[Char] Scoffing at just one shot and returning the favor with only one of your own? Char, stop being a hypocrite. Besides, the action's rendered moot as suddenly the Psycho Gundam throws itself in between you too, its own coating stopping your attack cold and it's beam cannons fire fat you again!

Char senses a... strange pressure from the giant, black Gundam. This one isn't in their right mind. Char's own Newtype senses detect the beam cannons' fire, using hard boost to press it forward and hopefully out of range of the heavier weaponry, passing over the two mobile suits. His descent would finally end as Char lands a good fourty yards away from Kamille. An interesting machine, that.

[Kamille] With the frame of time you have to work with between reactions and all that, Scirroco still manages to connect with Chart's midsection, knocking its weapons away and wrecking its arms... but as Scirroco moves back a bit and raises its rifle for a killing blow your shot takes out said beam rifle! The explosion knocks the Messala back, and the man can only glower for a moment
VJockey 2:07 am
Cheng: [Not really no. He couldn't care less for an enemy pilot. Had the Asshimar still been armed he would have fired a few point blank shots into it to be sure]
Wyverncakes 2:07 am
Excellent points, Cheng!
And in a few moments suddenly the ground starts to shake
Like REALLY shake, as alarms begin to sound in the city as well as with the Mondenkind people!
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:08 am
"W-what's going on?!"
Wyverncakes 2:08 am
Technician: "H-Heims! It's waking up... it's reacting to the artificial iDOL!"
Joseph Fischer 2:08 am
Kamille: NO!
Wyverncakes 2:09 am
"It doesn't have the equipment to remove it safely... so... it's triggering volcanic activity!"
Aero 2:09 am
"Tch........White Chalice...."
Wyverncakes 2:09 am
Over the public channel, you can all hear Scirroco snort.
Scirroco: "If they've come this far along, then stopping it's beyond our powers. Titans, fall back! Staying here will accomplish nothing!"
Mister Giggles 2:10 am
Char: Running away?
Joseph Fischer 2:11 am
Kamille: Char! We have bigger problems!
Wyverncakes 2:11 am
The Messala switches back to Mobile Armor mode. "I won today the moment the first blow was swung. What do I care if this island burns?"
Joseph Fischer 2:11 am
Kamille: The volcano's going to erupt!
Mister Giggles 2:11 am
Char: Tch. Fine.
Doc S 2:11 am
Allenby: He's right, if we all stay here we're gonna burn. Is that what you want? We need to get Gainer out of here.
Wyverncakes 2:12 am
The remaining Messallas and the Psyco Gundam follow suit... Canon. You've got your orders to fall back. And one barely-functioning Messalla's swinging by just so you can pull retreat too!
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:12 am
Haruka's watching the lava flows start to crack up around the island. "…There's some way to stop it, right…?"
Mister Giggles 2:12 am
Char boosts the Hyaku Shiki over towards Gainer. Its arms may be damaged, but they still work well enough to attempt to get Gainer out of the machine.
VJockey 2:13 am
Cheng: [Kicks the taken down Asshimar off the Behemoth's bayonet. He was more than a little tempted to fire shots after the Titans. He moves over to assist Char in getting Gainer out of there] Commander Char sir.
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:13 am
Haruka's going to back away from the ground (and lava), floating a good distance above the island.
Joseph Fischer 2:13 am
Kamille be moving to retrieve the King Gainer with it's one Good arm.
macprysm 2:13 am
Cynthia is waiting for him, sitting outside the cockpit. She's got a faraway look in her eyes. "He's...not moving..."
Doc S 2:13 am
Nobel's going to run off towards Gainer too. "Get him out of there. I'll see if I can't pull his mecha to safety."
Wyverncakes 2:13 am
Not that you can possibly see it right now, Haruka, but the Mondenkind operatives are hammering away at their keyboards right now, trying to figure everything out before they suddenly one of them announces over the speakers
"T-there's a way!"
Aero 2:14 am
"Sir...but what about Cynthia..."
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:14 am
"R-realy?!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:14 am
Devon looks like she has no intention of evacuating. On the contrary, she runs straight towards the volcano.
Wyverncakes 2:14 am
Scirroco: "She's done her job. If she doesn't have the will to leave I won't force her to!"
Wyverncakes 2:15 am
Technician: "Y-yes! At least hypothetically though! Seismic disturbances can be stopped through the proper application of force as well... we can't do anything about the Heims core but we CAN save the Island!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:16 am
"How?"
Wyverncakes 2:16 am
Devon, if you can figure out anything to possibly do to stop this, by all means try
Joseph Fischer 2:16 am
Kamille's getting out of his mecha at that, and running over towards Cynthia. "Hey, come on, it's dangerous to stand around here!
Aero 2:16 am
Surprisingly Canon is quite hesitant to leave.
macprysm 2:17 am
Cynthia gives Kamille a blank stare, and moves back to the Dominator in an almost trance-like state, the machine folding into its core egg and following behind King Gainer...and whatever unit is carrying it...all the way back to the chalice, if no one stops her.
cubey@aol.pl 2:17 am
Oh, Devon has no means to stop an eruption. She just wants to see the rogue Idolmasters defeated. Not to the extent that her life's in danger, though... but the lava isn't really burning her yet, and the temperature - the Black Cloud can endure.
Mister Giggles 2:17 am
Char: Admiral Delaz, send in the Mad Hatter tomorrow evening. Do not persue the Titans. That's an order.
Wyverncakes 2:18 am
Technician: "If you were to focus all of Imber's power into a single, energized blow and strike the mouth of the volcano, it might work! If it's pure energy it won't damage the structure of the volcano and might stop the eruption!
Joseph Fischer 2:18 am
Kamille's getting back in, and retreating.
Wyverncakes 2:18 am
"I can't promise it'll work but... it's the only thing that might!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:19 am
"…Right then!" Haruka gulps, and looks down on the volcano below. "Imber…everyone's counting on us. Let's do this!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjuphZ5F2sg
Wyverncakes 2:19 am
(Haruka)
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:20 am
To those watching: Haruka promptly rams the Island, punching it with *BOTH* fists at the same time. The resultant shockwave can probably be felt back on the mainland, as gravity goes all sorts of hijinxy.
+
Wyverncakes 2:21 am
[Haruka] The shockwave WOULD be... except someone suddenly lunges in front of Imber, punching up in anger
Chihaya: "NO!"
Aero 2:21 am
#
Wyverncakes 2:22 am
Chihaya: "I... won't accept this! Imber, I won't accept that you... you accept HER over ME! I can be one with you... I can do everything she can with you, and even BETTER!"
(Support: Canon)
Wyverncakes 2:22 am
(Also, Haruka, shut this bitch up)
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:25 am
*No words are exchanged. Haruka just knocks Nubilium aside with a stray hand, then continues upon her mountain-punching path.+
She doesn't even slow down.
Aero 2:27 am
*Canon is still here and at the exact same time as Haruka the Babylon model suddenly descends down at Nubilum. Holding her remaining Ruge Lance with both arms she dives down aiming for the cockpit where Chihaya was. She was going for a kill.+
Wyverncakes 2:28 am
[Canon, Haruka] The stab forces Chihaya to choose between her life or proving herself to her ONE TRUE LOVE... and she's forced to choose her life as one hand is thrown up to block Canon's stab... which makes it THAT MUCH EASIER for Imber to blow her away in the vein of Team Rocket!
And with no more obstructions, Imber SLAMS into the volcano as intended, the seismic quakings more than redoubling in intensity! For a moment it seems like Haruka's only made things worse...
But slowly, but noticeably, the quakings lessen... and then finally cease.
Mister Giggles 2:29 am
Char: Haruka... actually did it.
Wyverncakes 2:30 am
Canon, your ride is still very much present to help you escape
Wyverncakes 2:30 am
Saku: "... But we still lost the Core."
"Volcanos are interconnected..."
"That girl's probably long gone with it by now, having escaped through the underground network."
Mister Giggles 2:30 am
Char: At least the core didn't fall into the Titans' hands.
/late, ignore that
Aero 2:31 am
With the score equalized Canon gladly takes the ride shaking her head. If White Chalice didn't interfere they could have secured the core. "How pathetic..."
Wyverncakes 2:31 am
Saku: "Feh. They're part of the government. And I'd rather them have it than have it be in the possession of that woman..."
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:31 am
"…Hey, Fafner pilot. What's your name?"
Mister Giggles 2:32 am
Char: Char Aznable to White Chalice. Requesting a medical team be on standby for Gainer. He's... going to need it.
Aero 2:32 am
There is a short silence before she answers. "....Canon....Memphis." With those last words she's gon.
gone*
Wyverncakes 2:33 am
So then...
cubey@aol.pl 2:33 am
"Tch." A black figure will be busy lying down on a slope somewhere nearby, like if Devon was there on holiday rather than almost having the whole island blown up. Holiday that makes her obviously unhappy.
VJockey 2:33 am
Cheng: [Had his guns aimed at Canon. All he had to do during her talk with Haruka was pull the trigger and she'd be a smear. BUT she also kept everyone from Dying by Magma. He traked her as he left before finally standing at ease.] ..kj

[Kamillle] The Gundam's thrusters flare up and its vulcans begin to shower the Messala, but it quickly swerves out of the way before moving in for a stab at the Gundam's flank... just as a particular Asshimar comes hurtling in from the other angle, stabbing as well!
Overman Zappa 12:41 am
Gainer: "I don't want to fight a friend! Not like this! But I'm not going to let you beat me Cynthia Lane!"
Wyverncakes 12:41 am
Jerid: "YOU! If I can't recover the Gundam, I can at least see you killed!"
(React: Kamille)
Joseph Fischer 12:42 am
*Kamille gonna cut thrusters and let gravity take over, boosting downward and shooting upwards with his vulcans at Jerid and Sc-someguy he doesn't know
+
Wyverncakes 12:43 am
[Gainer] King Gainer's sword crashes into one of the arms, facing a bit more reistance than Gainer might have expected, but it still tears through it... just in time for the Overman to get snared by the other limb!
Wyverncakes 12:43 am
(Continue: Cynthia)
[Kamille] Vulcans are, admittedly laughable compared to the armor both the Messala and this particular Asshimar has backing it up and they're not breaking off at all. The Asshimar itself lunges forward, swiping again, and the Messala switches to mobile suit mode before firing a beam at you!
(React again: Kamille)
Wyverncakes 12:45 am
(Allenby, and Gainer, once this exchange with Cynthia is resolved you can take another turn)
Joseph Fischer 12:46 am
Kamille Twists to the left, snatching the hyper Bazooka from his back and launching Shotgun shells at both of his persuers!+
Wyverncakes 12:47 am
[Kamille] The twist buys you time... not much, but enough to get the bazooka out and fire! The Asshimar gets hammered by the shells, a few non-vital parts catching sparks as it's forced to skirt away... but before you can fire again the Messala's beam rifle spears through the bazooka perfectly, blowing it and the Gundam's arm to smithereens!
macprysm 12:48 am
Dominator doesn't care about losing an arm! It just regrows the lost limb, the sharpened blade diving into King Gainer's muscle engines! She ~IS~ avoiding the cockpit, though...+
Wyverncakes 12:48 am
Scirroco: "Leiutenent, I must thank you for that! Our combined efforts have defanged the Gundam considerably!"
All you hear on Jerid's end is annoyed grumbling
Joseph Fischer 12:49 am
Kamille: So... this is what fighting a newtype is like!
Wyverncakes 12:50 am
[Cynthia] Gainer is sure to appreciate that... but the blade still stabs into King Gainer HARD! Gainer, the force makes your whole machine rock from the impact, and in the confusion not only does a HUGE crack suddenly form on your main cockpit viewer, you bang your head pretty damn hard!
... But... if you can still focus, King Gainer can still fight!
(Allenby, Gainer)
Doc S 12:51 am
Allenby: C'mon Gundam, it's go time!
*Allenby's going to take this one step at a time, facing down the black Gundam. And by taking it one step at a time, she's going to charge in at high speeds with a flurry of punches, each one of them powerful enough to shatter armor! If that doesn't work, her beam ribbon is already flying into her hand&
Wyverncakes 12:53 am
[Allenby] The Psyco Gundam might tower over the Nobel by a solid 25 meters, but Allenby makes up for size with determination and punchspam! The Gundam tries to use its damaged shield to stop the attack, but it breaks before long... only to suddenly reveal that the Gundam's chest is suddenly glowing, right before beam cannons fire on you!
(React: Allenby)
Overman Zappa 12:54 am
Gainer gets bounced around inside the cockpit... hard enough that the Overman loses altitude. Groaning and OBVIOUSLY hurt from a bang on the head... "Cynthia... this... isn't a game... I already told you I don't want to fight you..."
Doc S 12:54 am
*Fading to the side and leaping into the air, her boosters fired as Nobel hurled that beam ribbon towards the opponent, the weapon spiralling around in what appears to be a rather effective use of combat gymnastics! With any luck, she'll catch the opponent in its wave of damage!+
Wyverncakes 12:56 am
[Allenby] The beam cannons just barely manage to catch the Nobel's "hair", and fortunately nothing else as the ribbon surges at the Psyco Gundam. The pilot mistakes it for more shot than saber though, and the ribbon does tear by into it somewhat, but only until it's batted away. This thing isn't going down without a fight!
macprysm 12:56 am
Cynthia's giddy. "I...I did it! I WON! Wahahaaa!" Dominator chases after the falling Overman.
Doc S 12:56 am
Allenby: Hah, tis but a scratch!
Overman Zappa 12:58 am
*"But I'm not going to let you win!" King Gainer takes up a stance, holding his sword up like a knight. SUDDENLY BLACK CLOUDS SUDDENLY COLD. SUDDENLY SNOW kicking up from behind King Gainer&
Wyverncakes 12:58 am
Seeing that all the power players seem to be distracted with other things, Epimetheus takes the chance to charge across the battlefield at the volcano, smashing apart one poorly-piloted Asshimar as more laughter eminates from the machine. "Epi is so great! Even without a Core it's the strongest iDOL EVER!"
Wyverncakes 12:58 am
(Anyone want to take a potshot at her, go ahead)
(And Canon, Devon)
cubey@aol.pl 12:58 am
*Devon is not going to focus on smallfry. But it so happens that she has to land on something, so she aims to make that thing a low-altitude Asshimar. And as soon as her fall is broken, she utilises Black Cloud's titanic strength in an effort of forcing the cockpit hatch open. If successful - the pilot gets grabbed one-handed and unceremoniously thrown away. Maybe he'll survive, maybe not. The altitude was kinda low after all. Not that Devon cares.&
Wyverncakes 12:59 am
[Gainer] A strong resolve coupled with a sudden drop in temperature. Damaged though it and its pilot is, King Gainer hasn't lost yet!
(Continue, Gainer)
macprysm 12:59 am
Cynthia: ...odd weather for a volcanic area....What are you up to, Game champ?
Aero 12:59 am
*Surprisingly Canon leaps away from the White Chalice units and aims at Epi with the Garm firing at it as she descended towards it. &
Doc S 1:00 am
*"Nobel Hula Hoop!" Allenby had noticed the girl on running for the core, and she was out of range. So she threw a beam hula hoop at her+
Wyverncakes 1:00 am
[Devon] The Asshimar's cockpit gets torn open rather abruptly... and hell, it actually gets torn clean off! And that pilot? Well, he gets thrown possibly to his death. Or maybe he'll land on a trampoline or something. But congrats, Devon, you just stole an Asshimar!
(Continue: Devon)
cubey@aol.pl 1:01 am
*Devon is not a pilot, but she knows enough to make a mobile suit go forward at full speed. And that's what she does. "Get out of the way." Kamille gets a short warning. Jerid and Scirocco do not - and it's their group that Devon wants to collide with. She'll Shift just mere moments before the impact.+
Overman Zappa 1:01 am
*King Gainer still stands there, but icy winds and snow blow toward the Dominator. Chunks of ice start freezing over the Dominator (and probably other stuff nearby... it's... sort of an AoE like that). When large enough chunks of ice look like they'll slow down or stop Dominator, Gainer starts his Overskill-speed charge to lop off Dominator's arms (again) +
Wyverncakes 1:02 am
[Allenby, Canon] Epimetheus barely reacts to the hoop in time to evade, and skirts backwards just in time for the Fafner to pelt it with more Garm shots and stand in its way. The laughter inside of Epimetheus grows a touch more arrogant though
"Oooh! That red machine... it kinda looks like a tiny iDOL though... but it's totally not better than one, and ESPECIALLY not my Epi!"
(Continue: Canon)
Aero 1:05 am
*Canon held out the broken Ruge Lance out at the larger machine as she descended towards it, Canon was hoping to use gravity in a simpler way to try to stab Epi with the Lance.+
Wyverncakes 1:05 am
[Devon] Scirroco's Newtype senses are all the warning he needs. Jerid though? Jerid's shit out of luck. The Asshimar hurtles forward and he barely has the reflexes to eject in time, both Asshimars blowing up spectacularly!
[Gainer] Cynthia, the ice is cold... REALLY fucking cold! The Dominator is starting to completely freeze over, and King Gainer is suddenly attacking. With no resistance the machine lops off both of the Dominator's arms!
Wyverncakes 1:07 am
[Canon] Bad news. Epimetheus has gravity shields too! The Fafner collides with one instead, and unceremoniously gets swatted away by the larger machine. "Oooh! Turns out I was right, wasn't I? Teeny little pretend iDOLs can't keep up with the real thing!"
(Cheng, Haruka)
Aero 1:08 am
"This isn't an iDOL it's a Fafner." She sounds rather deadpan.
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:09 am
*Haruka has Imber stand up, his fist-armor locking into place. "Look, I don't know who you are, but please, stop fighting! Imber and I have nothing against you!"&
VJockey 1:10 am
*Cheng. What does he do? He throws his spent gatling gun and Autocannon aside and pulling out the Assault Rifle that the Behemoth had on it. Also notice the shiny looking bayonet. Still fully intent on taking Canon down he rushes at her, firing in short controlled bursts while fully intent on impaling her Fafner on the gun's blade&
macprysm 1:10 am
Cynthia: "W-what...I've seen this before...Overfreeze?!" Her teeth are chattering in the cockpit, and it's getting hard to maneuver. "Th-that's a neat trick, Gainer...I'm glad you're finally getting serious, Gainer! But...let me tell you something about this overman called the Dominator! But THIS GAME IS STILL ON! My Dominator's perfectly capable of Defrosting your Overfreeze! So now you know!"
Wyverncakes 1:11 am
[Haruka] The girl inside of Nubilem just snorts and then charges, punching at you again. "Bullshit! You're the one piloting him.... even though you have no right to!" Not that you can see it, but her fists are shaking. "Look at what you've done to him... he's hurt and I KNOW what you've been doing with him! Atmospheric re-entry... fighting Festum, FESTUM of all things... You're going to KILL Imber one of these days!"
macprysm 1:11 am
Dominator's...de-icing on it's own! It quickly picks the assault back up, lashing out with long, bladed tentacles!+
Wyverncakes 1:11 am
"Why... Why, Imber!" She growls. "Why are you making me do this to you?"
(React: Haruka)
[Cheng] The bullets are coming at a slower rate while being far more accurate now, and the Behemoth's gunblade glints dangerously! Cheng's still got every intent to kill you, Canon!
(React: Canon)
Wyverncakes 1:14 am
[Cynthia] The ice melts bit by bit, and along with it, the Dominator's arms regrow before the machine continues its assault on you, Gainer! Is there ANY way you're going to be able to take this thing out?
(React: Gainer)
Overman Zappa 1:15 am
*King Gainer is still using OverSpeed, so those tiny little spikes are nothing to deflect, as it swings it's chain gun and aims to bat the strikes away. Afterward, King Gainer shoots to the underside of the Dominator, drawing the chain sword upward
Aero 1:15 am
*Considering she just bounced off of Epi Canon is simply going to boost off in another direction again before landing using whatever cover might be near. In this case Epi itself position herself again so that the larger iDOL would have to deal with the gunfire. "Allies of cowards are also cowards..."+
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:15 am
*Haruka gets up Imber's arms in a block, trying to weather the assualt. "Hey, we're just trying to help out where we can!"+
Overman Zappa 1:15 am
+
Wyverncakes 1:17 am
[Gainer] King Gainer's speed puts it leagues beyond the Dominator's, and again all those little spikes are cut away before the machine zooms by, cutting across the Dominator's undersection cleanly!
[Haruka] Furiously, Chihya punches again in anger. "Helping out WHO? Did Imber agree to this? Did you ever ask him? You're garbage that just takes him wherever you want to go, with no consideration for him. You... YOU'RE UNFIT TO BE AN IDOLMASTER!" That last one had enough force behind it to knock Imber back even further!
Wyverncakes 1:20 am
[Canon] The bullets do indeed mainly get warded off by Epimetheus unknowingly... and suddenly, Cheng Epimetheus is running towards you. "Oh! A really big mech, like Epi but with a lot of guns... You're no match for him either!" Cue meaty punch!
(React: Cheng)
(Cynthia, Kamille)
macprysm 1:22 am
Cynthia: You may be fast, but still no match for Dominator! *The cockpit slides up, bits of legs stretching out to take the hit, and both arms fuse into a multi-spiked club of a blade! * This is it... GAME OVER!

arachnion01@gmail.com 1:24 am
*Haruka gets tossed around inside the cockpit as Imber goes backwards. But she keeps her guard up, even as a little bit of blood drips down her forehead. "…I…I'm not the best…but at least I'm not trying to hurt him! Please, can't we settle this without fighting?"+
Overman Zappa 1:24 am
*Gainer shoots to make a full retreat from the attack, way, way out of range. Flipping around, Gainer comes back in on OverSpeed, chainblade revving and going for "head" of the Overman!... but from where? BEHIND! +
cubey@aol.pl 1:25 am
*One Shifter, still phased out of reality, charges through the battlefield. Good luck aiming your punches any good, Epimetheus - because as soon as Devon is near your feet, she Shifts back in to the material layer and tries to topple you over or at least off-balance, all her muscles straining with extreme effort even with the armor's assistance.+
Wyverncakes 1:26 am
[Kamille] The Messala is dancing around your shots, the experience gap between you and Scirroco becoming clearer and clearer with every miss. He's not even trying to fight back at all. "Your skill is laughable!' he booms victoriously. "I need not raise even one finger to defeat you, pilot!" And then suddenly, Kamille, a jolt of pain runs through your head. The black Gundam is towering underneath you, slashing its saber at you with inhuman speed!
(React: Kamille)
Joseph Fischer 1:28 am
*"Gck!" Dashes back and behind the Psycho Gundam. He was clearly outclassed, but he was starting to get an idea of how these people fought...+
Wyverncakes 1:29 am
[Devon and Cheng] Devon's shifted form slips through the shields without trouble, and hits Epimetheus hard. The size difference is a problem, yes, but the machine was in the middle of an attack and stumbles forward, amidst Riffa's exclaims of shock. "W-what? Epi, why are you falling?"
Wyverncakes 1:30 am
[Haruka] Chihaya just snorts. "No. Because if Imber won't take me back as long as you're around... then I'll kill you."

Wyverncakes 1:31 am

(React: Cynthia)
macprysm 1:32 am
Cynthia: DOMINATOR! OVERSKILL! Dominator's limbs aren't stuck in any one position! The machine glows gold as king gainer rushes in. It's met with 30 different blades, closing in on him like some kind of crazy gold octopus with 30 bladed tentacles! A single, large blunt cylinder strikes from the middle, as well, inturrupting his charge!+
Aero 1:33 am
*Canon leaps up as Nubilum flies overhead trying to get a good grip on the huge machine. "You're not getting to that core." &
Wyverncakes 1:33 am
[Kamille] The Mk. II backpedals, barely evading the Psyco's attack... and DAMN the pressure from the Gundam is growing to be almost unbearable!
Wyverncakes 1:35 am
[Canon] More and more bullets are coming your way even as you try to go after Nubliem, and then you crash into its shield again, just in time for the Behemoth's bullets to pound into your backside! Fuck... a few more seconds of this and you're a dead woman!
(React: Canon)
Joseph Fischer 1:35 am
Kamille: Is the pressure getting stronger? ... I can work with that!
Wyverncakes 1:36 am
[Cynthia] Dominator's not as fast... but it's fast enough!
The spike impales King Gainer, stopping it cold... and doing God knows what to the pilot!
Aero 1:37 am
*Canon ignores the Behemoth she had no time to waste with idiots and if she die trying to fufill her mission she would be find with it. Once the shield went up she boosted again the broken Ruge Lance opening up and firing several beam shots at the iDOL trying to use that to get the thing to lower it's shield as she continued to try to stop it. &
addendum: She also ejects the remaining Ruge Lance from her back letting it drop hoping that it would block a few more of the shots.+

One overman cushions the other as it grows into a single, giant mass of golden goo below it, forming...some kind of giant dessert? And King Gainer's the topping!

Dominator's torso springs up, both arms turned into gigantic blades, as it strips the overcoat from King Gainer's body, pinning the mecha. "I...win! Hey, Gainer, how do you like me now!"
Wyverncakes 1:43 am
[Canon] Bwahahaha forget about Cheng firing on you (kicks self) and the shots do manage to at least... annoy Chihaya. Enough for the machine to suddenly spin around, delibering a swift roundhouse kick to the Fafner!
Overman Zappa 1:43 am
Gainer... Gainer has no words for you. Not cuz he's mad, but... cuz he's not even conscious...

(Err
(Canon)
[Kamille] Suddenly another spike in the pressure. GOD this is getting ridiculous... and suddenly the Messala seems to be taking an active interest in you! "... The Psyco Gundam... if these kinds of reactions continue then..." And suddenly! The Messala draws a beam saber before blasting straight at you, aiming for a killing blow!
(React: Kamille)

*Canon takes the opening and sets the broken Ruge Lance to overload to cause it to explode and throws it at Nubilum with her left arm. At the same time the other hand reached for her other Ruge Lance which she promptly slashed towards the leg that was now flying towards her.+
macprysm 1:47 am
Cynthia: "Gainer? Hey! It's impolite to not answer a lady..." The Dominator powers down, letting the disabled King Gainer rest on the ground, as Cynthia jumps out of the cockpit. She rushes over to open up Gainer's cockpit, a somewhat worried look on her face. "H-hey, dummy! Say something, would you?"

*Devon lets go the blue unit's leg. She attacks from underfoot, aiming for the groin - a very painful location for a human, but one that provides access to precious inner systems even for mechanical beings. As soon as her uppercut connects with Epimetheus, she tries to hold the outer armor - while the other hand delivers a destructive, glassing-and-shattering strike.+
Doc S 1:47 am
*That black Gundam really did not like dealing with her, and was focusing more on Kamille. So in short, she was going to go deal with the rest of the mooks that were probably still littering the field. Turning towards them, she drew her beam ribbon and twirled it in the air before unleashing a spiral of beam energy at the opponents around them, hoping to cleave limbs off the mechas.+
Overman Zappa 1:48 am
Gainer: "..." Sorry, too busy not being conscious. That... might be a trickle of blood from his forehead too. Also, where did his glasses go?
Mister Giggles 1:48 am
"I don't think so." Just then, four shots from a beam rifle came out of... seemingly nowhere. They would be aiming straight for the Mesalla, and if Scirocco didn't break off the attack, he'd take about four headshots in four different places. Because coming from straight above all of them is a speeding red mobile suit, now complete with a Zeon emblem on its left forearm.
Joseph Fischer 1:49 am
Kamille: That voice!
Wyverncakes 1:49 am
[Canon] It's a daring act, the broken Ruge Lance being tossed at Nubilem even as the unbroken one slashes at Nubilem's leg! For a second the unbroken one is stopped by the shield... but the sudden explosion from the tossed one upsets Nubilem's defenses. Chihaya can only grunt before the leg is cut into and she struggles to get away. "D-dammit!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:49 am
"Could that be-?"
Wyverncakes 1:50 am
[Devon] The blow does indeed damage Epimetheus, but now Devon lacks the power of momentum to make her blows more effective. Riffa still yelps a little inside, but is able to react enough that before Devon can try anything else, Epimitheus's leg moves to swipe at her!
(React: Devon)
Mister Giggles 1:51 am
Char: [Encrypted Channel] Odessa's Revenge, this is Captain Aznable. Do not bring the 'Mad Hatter' aboard the Holy Grail. Bogies at six o'clock. Repeat, do not bring the 'Mad Hatter' aboard the Holy Grail.
cubey@aol.pl 1:52 am
*Devon has no intention of playing fair. She kicks off the machine for some extra evasive speed, and tries to Shift right in time.+
Wyverncakes 1:52 am
[Allenby] There certainly were a crapton of Asshimars still there, and for a second they almost don't realize what's about to happen. And then suddenly OH GOD ENERGY RIBBON AGAIN RUN FOR YOUR LIFE RUN FOR YOUR LIFE RUN FOR YOUR LIFE OH GOD THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME AND... and when the blows hit, thrusters, and limbs and main cameras are hit... but Allenby manages to not kill anyone else though. Tough luck, Kackrikon
Wyverncakes 1:53 am
[Char] The Mesalla's attack is stopped cold, and the backpedals as Scirroco exclaims in amusement. "Ah... if it isn't the Red Comet, returned again!"
[Char, continued] The Mesalla skirts away, firing a beam rifle shot of its own at the not-Gundam just for good measure though. (React, Char)
macprysm 1:54 am
Cynthia...is in shock. She's probably not gonna rejoin the battle at this point...she's trying desperately to get something out of Gainer...she might even be crying a bit. She doesn't even notice one of her all time idols out there on the battlefield.
Wyverncakes 1:55 am
[Devon] The evasive measures work and you manage to get away from Epimetheus in time... which is admittedly just what it wants as suddenly its thrusters flare and it shoots out like a bullet, straight for the volcano! "Heh! Epi's so great like that. Even when it falls it can get right back up like that!"
(Cheng, Haruka)
Mister Giggles 1:55 am
Pfft. A single Beam Rifle? Against Char? In Hyakku Shiki? Puh-leaze. Char banks slightly to the left, raising its forearm and swatting outwards, the anti-beam coating effortlessly deflecting the grazing shot. Char counters with yet another shot from the Hyakku Shiki's beam rifle, this time ariming for Mesalla's abdomen.
Char: This is what the Titans have to offer? I'm not impressed.
arachnion01@gmail.com 1:57 am
*Hey, Epimetheus. There's a white Idol on your tail. Haruka's going for a straight ram at full speed from behind on Epimetheus, since Nubilum seems to be downed already.+
Wyverncakes 1:57 am
[Char] Scoffing at just one shot and returning the favor with only one of your own? Char, stop being a hypocrite. Besides, the action's rendered moot as suddenly the Psycho Gundam throws itself in between you too, its own coating stopping your attack cold and it's beam cannons fire fat you again!
VJockey 1:58 am
(Targets remaining?)
Wyverncakes 1:58 am
(Red: a crapton of damaged Asshimars, the Fafner, Psycho Gundam, and Messala. The Dominator has been removed from the iniative, due to Cynthia's breakdown)
(Yellow: Nubilem, Epimetheus)
cubey@aol.pl 2:00 am
Devon's rather annoyed right now, having realized she's just been outsmarted. Silence coming from her direction is very intensive.
Wyverncakes 2:00 am
[Haruka] Epimetheus is fast, really fast... but Imber manages to be faster still and crash into it. The two machines get launched forward, smashing into the side of the volcano, and angrily Epimetheus scrambles and punches to get Imber off.
cubey@aol.pl 2:00 am
However that works.
Wyverncakes 2:00 am
(React: Haruka)
Mister Giggles 2:00 am
Char senses a... strange pressure from the giant, black Gundam. This one isn't in their right mind. Char's own Newtype senses detect the beam cannons' fire, using hard boost to press it forward and hopefully out of range of the heavier weaponry, passing over the two mobile suits. His descent would finally end as Char lands a good fourty yards away from Kamille. An interesting machine, that.
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:01 am
*Okay, maybe Haruka could have thought this out more. She's going to pull back to avoid the brunt of the punches.+
VJockey 2:01 am
Cheng: *is he still targeting the Fafner? Surprisingly no. The sudden appearance of Char snaps him out of his rage induced frenzy for the moment. He composes himself to take the fight to the Titans. Rushing at an Asshimar and aiming to spear it through the cockpit+
Mister Giggles 2:01 am
Char: Kamille, are you alright?
Joseph Fischer 2:01 am
Kamille: Char, I'm fine, but you sense it too, right? Who's piloting that thing? It doesn't feel like any newtype I've experienced.
Mister Giggles 2:02 am
Char: I don't know. It doesn't feel natural.
Wyverncakes 2:02 am
[Char] The Hyaku Shiki manages to skirt around the Psyco Gundam's fire... but Scirroco was expecting that! Suddenly the Messala is flying straight up at you, and not aiming for a beam rifle shot or a stab... but instead kicking you right across the midsection. Char, HE'S STEALING YOUR SIGNATURE TECHNIQUE!
(React: Char)
Joseph Fischer 2:02 am
#?
Wyverncakes 2:02 am
(Sure. React: Kamille)
Joseph Fischer 2:03 am
*Kamille's right there you know, so while you kick at Char, he's gonna spam beam fire at the Messala.+
Wyverncakes 2:04 am
[Cheng] Damn, Cheng. Allenby just damaged all those poor bastards and now you're just going to murder one in cold blood like that? You'd be horrified to know this particular pilot was one day from retirement, and with his death he's going to leave a wife ant three daughters without father
MagiMecha has left the room. 2:04 am
Wyverncakes 2:05 am
[Haruka] Pulling back is EXACTLY what Riffa was waiting for! One good punch knocks you even further away, and then the machine shoots up, crests over the lip of the volcano, and then dives right in!
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:05 am
"Ah!"
Aero 2:07 am
If Canon wasn't busy fighting in midair with Chihaya she would have facepalmed.
Wyverncakes 2:07 am
[Kamille] With the frame of time you have to work with between reactions and all that, Scirroco still manages to connect with Chart's midsection, knocking its weapons away and wrecking its arms... but as Scirroco moves back a bit and raises its rifle for a killing blow your shot takes out said beam rifle! The explosion knocks the Messala back, and the man can only glower for a moment
VJockey 2:07 am
Cheng: [Not really no. He couldn't care less for an enemy pilot. Had the Asshimar still been armed he would have fired a few point blank shots into it to be sure]
Wyverncakes 2:07 am
Excellent points, Cheng!
And in a few moments suddenly the ground starts to shake
Like REALLY shake, as alarms begin to sound in the city as well as with the Mondenkind people!
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:08 am
"W-what's going on?!"
Wyverncakes 2:08 am
Technician: "H-Heims! It's waking up... it's reacting to the artificial iDOL!"
Joseph Fischer 2:08 am
Kamille: NO!
Wyverncakes 2:09 am
"It doesn't have the equipment to remove it safely... so... it's triggering volcanic activity!"
Aero 2:09 am
"Tch........White Chalice...."
Wyverncakes 2:09 am
Over the public channel, you can all hear Scirroco snort.
Scirroco: "If they've come this far along, then stopping it's beyond our powers. Titans, fall back! Staying here will accomplish nothing!"
Mister Giggles 2:10 am
Char: Running away?
Joseph Fischer 2:11 am
Kamille: Char! We have bigger problems!
Wyverncakes 2:11 am
The Messala switches back to Mobile Armor mode. "I won today the moment the first blow was swung. What do I care if this island burns?"
Joseph Fischer 2:11 am
Kamille: The volcano's going to erupt!
Mister Giggles 2:11 am
Char: Tch. Fine.
Doc S 2:11 am
Allenby: He's right, if we all stay here we're gonna burn. Is that what you want? We need to get Gainer out of here.
Wyverncakes 2:12 am
The remaining Messallas and the Psyco Gundam follow suit... Canon. You've got your orders to fall back. And one barely-functioning Messalla's swinging by just so you can pull retreat too!
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:12 am
Haruka's watching the lava flows start to crack up around the island. "…There's some way to stop it, right…?"
Mister Giggles 2:12 am
Char boosts the Hyaku Shiki over towards Gainer. Its arms may be damaged, but they still work well enough to attempt to get Gainer out of the machine.
VJockey 2:13 am
Cheng: [Kicks the taken down Asshimar off the Behemoth's bayonet. He was more than a little tempted to fire shots after the Titans. He moves over to assist Char in getting Gainer out of there] Commander Char sir.
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:13 am
Haruka's going to back away from the ground (and lava), floating a good distance above the island.
Joseph Fischer 2:13 am
Kamille be moving to retrieve the King Gainer with it's one Good arm.
macprysm 2:13 am
Cynthia is waiting for him, sitting outside the cockpit. She's got a faraway look in her eyes. "He's...not moving..."
Doc S 2:13 am
Nobel's going to run off towards Gainer too. "Get him out of there. I'll see if I can't pull his mecha to safety."
Wyverncakes 2:13 am
Not that you can possibly see it right now, Haruka, but the Mondenkind operatives are hammering away at their keyboards right now, trying to figure everything out before they suddenly one of them announces over the speakers
"T-there's a way!"
Aero 2:14 am
"Sir...but what about Cynthia..."
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:14 am
"R-realy?!"
cubey@aol.pl 2:14 am
Devon looks like she has no intention of evacuating. On the contrary, she runs straight towards the volcano.
Wyverncakes 2:14 am
Scirroco: "She's done her job. If she doesn't have the will to leave I won't force her to!"
Wyverncakes 2:15 am
Technician: "Y-yes! At least hypothetically though! Seismic disturbances can be stopped through the proper application of force as well... we can't do anything about the Heims core but we CAN save the Island!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:16 am
"How?"
Wyverncakes 2:16 am
Devon, if you can figure out anything to possibly do to stop this, by all means try
Joseph Fischer 2:16 am
Kamille's getting out of his mecha at that, and running over towards Cynthia. "Hey, come on, it's dangerous to stand around here!
Aero 2:16 am
Surprisingly Canon is quite hesitant to leave.
macprysm 2:17 am
Cynthia gives Kamille a blank stare, and moves back to the Dominator in an almost trance-like state, the machine folding into its core egg and following behind King Gainer...and whatever unit is carrying it...all the way back to the chalice, if no one stops her.
cubey@aol.pl 2:17 am
Oh, Devon has no means to stop an eruption. She just wants to see the rogue Idolmasters defeated. Not to the extent that her life's in danger, though... but the lava isn't really burning her yet, and the temperature - the Black Cloud can endure.
Mister Giggles 2:17 am
Char: Admiral Delaz, send in the Mad Hatter tomorrow evening. Do not persue the Titans. That's an order.
Wyverncakes 2:18 am
Technician: "If you were to focus all of Imber's power into a single, energized blow and strike the mouth of the volcano, it might work! If it's pure energy it won't damage the structure of the volcano and might stop the eruption!
Joseph Fischer 2:18 am
Kamille's getting back in, and retreating.
Wyverncakes 2:18 am
"I can't promise it'll work but... it's the only thing that might!"
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:19 am
"…Right then!" Haruka gulps, and looks down on the volcano below. "Imber…everyone's counting on us. Let's do this!"

Wyverncakes 2:19 am
(Haruka)
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:20 am
To those watching: Haruka promptly rams the Island, punching it with *BOTH* fists at the same time. The resultant shockwave can probably be felt back on the mainland, as gravity goes all sorts of hijinxy.

Wyverncakes 2:21 am
[Haruka] The shockwave WOULD be... except someone suddenly lunges in front of Imber, punching up in anger
Chihaya: "NO!"
Aero 2:21 am

Wyverncakes 2:22 am
Chihaya: "I... won't accept this! Imber, I won't accept that you... you accept HER over ME! I can be one with you... I can do everything she can with you, and even BETTER!"
(Support: Canon)
Wyverncakes 2:22 am
(Also, Haruka, shut this bitch up)
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:25 am
*No words are exchanged. Haruka just knocks Nubilium aside with a stray hand, then continues upon her mountain-punching path.+
She doesn't even slow down.
Aero 2:27 am
*Canon is still here and at the exact same time as Haruka the Babylon model suddenly descends down at Nubilum. Holding her remaining Ruge Lance with both arms she dives down aiming for the cockpit where Chihaya was. She was going for a kill.+
Wyverncakes 2:28 am
[Canon, Haruka] The stab forces Chihaya to choose between her life or proving herself to her ONE TRUE LOVE... and she's forced to choose her life as one hand is thrown up to block Canon's stab... which makes it THAT MUCH EASIER for Imber to blow her away in the vein of Team Rocket!
And with no more obstructions, Imber SLAMS into the volcano as intended, the seismic quakings more than redoubling in intensity! For a moment it seems like Haruka's only made things worse...
But slowly, but noticeably, the quakings lessen... and then finally cease.
Mister Giggles 2:29 am
Char: Haruka... actually did it.
Wyverncakes 2:30 am
Canon, your ride is still very much present to help you escape
Wyverncakes 2:30 am
Saku: "... But we still lost the Core."
"Volcanos are interconnected..."
"That girl's probably long gone with it by now, having escaped through the underground network."
Mister Giggles 2:30 am
Char: At least the core didn't fall into the Titans' hands.
/late, ignore that
Aero 2:31 am
With the score equalized Canon gladly takes the ride shaking her head. If White Chalice didn't interfere they could have secured the core. "How pathetic..."
Wyverncakes 2:31 am
Saku: "Feh. They're part of the government. And I'd rather them have it than have it be in the possession of that woman..."
arachnion01@gmail.com 2:31 am
"…Hey, Fafner pilot. What's your name?"
Mister Giggles 2:32 am
Char: Char Aznable to White Chalice. Requesting a medical team be on standby for Gainer. He's... going to need it.
Aero 2:32 am
There is a short silence before she answers. "....Canon....Memphis." With those last words she's gon.
gone*
Wyverncakes 2:33 am
So then...
cubey@aol.pl 2:33 am
"Tch." A black figure will be busy lying down on a slope somewhere nearby, like if Devon was there on holiday rather than almost having the whole island blown up. Holiday that makes her obviously unhappy.
VJockey 2:33 am
Cheng: [Had his guns aimed at Canon. All he had to do during her talk with Haruka was pull the trigger and she'd be a smear. BUT she also kept everyone from Dying by Magma. He traked her as he left before finally standing at ease.] ..kj
