India slammed her weight into the shade
Cremo, glad for some real action, finally caught up, and grabbed a peice of pipe. I suddently became red-hot before bursting into flames, at which point he happily ran forward to assist.
the shade shoved India into the way of Cremo and was about to attack Might as a rolling cutter cut through it,the shade reshaped and charged into Might,wrestling him to the ground and lept into the open to take on its opponents in ease.
India rolled out of
Cremos way.
"What the hell is this thing...?" she got up again as Sokuro
slammed a psychic orb into the shade.
"Can we even HURT it?"
He lept over her
and bore down on the shade with the searing red-hot pipe, "we can sure
try!"
-------------
Medley shook her head, "No, I didn't mean...
hang on..." she looked over to the side, and her features shifted slightly, but
it was only slightly noticable afterward. "There's something going on, over that
way... a battle, I think..."
Might : "I don`t
know..."
The shade made no roars or sounds and shifted its shape
again,turning into a mockery of all its opponents melded into one being,it swung
Mights scythe at Cremo and with its other arm brought Indias sword down on Might
carving him in two,the bone turned to dust and Might
reformed.
---
Sanjuro yelled as he tried to stand up,his body
wrecked.
"Someone get that
Kid out of here!!" She motioned to Sanjuro and ducked, uppercutting her sword
into the shade.
"Ardyns PULL!" The sword exploded in pure light energy,
pulling negative emotion and energy into the sword and pushing it out as pure
light.
Sokuro shot another orb at the shade.
----------
Skye
nodded.
"Let's go then."
Cremo spun in
mid-air, blocking the scythe with the pipe, and fell sideways into the shadow.
The pipe, made mallable by the heat, was like warm butter to the scythe, and he
jumped over it, now with a half-sized pipe in each hand. As he came down again,
he jabbed one red-hot peice of metal into the
shape.
----------------
The two robots took off, led by Medley's
inate ability to sense life force.
"Don't worry we got him." Rini said soon as she got to the fight and heard the order. She and Fu Fu (who had turned into his alternet form when they got there), took and arm and dragged San a safe distance away from the fight. "I'm new at healing robots, but I'm going to do my best." Rini said as she bend down beside him and went into a healing trace. Fu Fu stood in front of them with his double bladed ax out and ready to defene
The shade split
apart from the attacks and reformed a slight distance away,it charged towards
Might and engulfed him,when it moved away there was nothing left but a scythe
and robes.It formed a claw from the sword arm and swung it towards Sokuro,it
then fired several needles from its chest at India and its other arm turned into
a whip and slammed Cremo in the chest.
---
San looked at Rini and
smirked,"thanks..."
Cremo fell back and
slid a foot or before backflipping into a standing position. He grimaced and
charged again, punching into the wraith with one steel-reinforced hand
((couldn't resist saying it :B)) and swinging the other at its apparent
head.
-------
As the two robots neared the battle, Medley, who had
already begun shifting, started to stumble. Her "skin" also began to fade
slightly, and she became queasy again. She instinctively clutched at the
medallion around her neck, and felt one of the nearby people "dissapear," like a
sound fading into white noise. At that time, they both turned the corner and saw
the fight taking place.
"Shh!!" Fu Fu hushed sternly. "Thanks comes after the healing. You talk to her now and she'll lose focus. And believe me, you don't want a healer to lose focuse in the middle of healing, espeaiclly if the healer is still a beginner."
The shade fell back
from the atttacks and started to thin down,it started to shiver and then finally
died,leaving a rattled looking skeleton clutching a small red
organ.
Might : ".....in all my years of living,I am NEVER doing that
again...."
He looked at the now dead heart in his hand,"seems they do
have a weakness,their heart,problem is,it can move freely in their body..but..I
think that it moves to the point of anything newly formed...",he took that
moment of peace to collapse.
India pulled the
spikes from her skin and cuddled Sokuro, the small mew fortunately dodging the
shades attacks.
"So when this thing turns...human we aim for the
heart?"
She blinked and looked down at Might. "....maybe I'll ask
later.."
She crouched down and put a hand on his skull. 'might I know you're
a nice guy but this really freaks me out...' she said to
herself.
-----
Skye blinked and steadied Medley.
"Easy..."
Moore had finally arrived on the scene,he had been scouting as well after his meal,"well don`t just leave him laying there",he picked up Might and looked at the assembled group,"can someone get his robes and weapon,we`ll head to his home".
OOC: Time to make
myself useful...for once >_<
IC: White-Jet and her plushies walked
up to the robe and picked it up. One of her plushies picked up the weapon that
was on the ground.
Rini finally finished the healing session and stood up. "There...should be back to new." she said weakly, then fainted. "I told her. I told her. She's not suppose to stand up right after a healing. Espeacilly if it's a hardcore one."
San quickly caught her and looked at Fu Fu,"take it she should rest somewhere?"
Skye ran out to
Might and took his form from Moore.
"Ive got em..."
She smirked and
whispered to Moore. "Take care of Medley wouldya?"
India was crouched
on the ground, still where she had been with Sokuro perched up on her
shoulder.
"What the hell is going on..."
Murr : "I know what
it is....seen something like these before,evil that becomes a body for a human
heart..hearts the weakpoint but it can freely move where it wants to in the
body,when it forms like say a new arm that heart will be at the tip of that and
thats its weakness....damn I hated fighting these things.."
San looked
over and saw Skye,he shook his head and stood up holding Rini in his
arms.
Fu Fu replied,
"Yeah, rest will help replinsh some of her energy. And we need to have food and
water ready for her, to help give her back more energy." San nodded and shifted
his weight a bit. As he did, Rini gave a low moan, threw her arms around his
neck, and nuzzled agaisnt his chest a bit.
OOC: Sorry...I saw the opening
and couldnt' resist. :p But if their is something wrong, I'll edit it
out.
"er...well she is
alseep,must be having a good dream,right well lets go to Mights place,San was
bright red but managed not to stutter.
---
The group had gotten to
Mights home and the skeleton was now back in his robes but still shaken up by
what he had just gone through,"...at least we killed it"
Fu Fu was back into bunny form and now sit on Rini's chest as he laid on the bed. He looked over at Might, "So from I get from all this is, in order for us to kill these things, we have to have you get inside them and take out their heart?"
Might finally
showed a bit of fear and lost his compsure,"are you insane!?....excuse me...a
weapon can easily peirce their bodies,its hitting the heart that is the
difficulty,as I`ve said it forms at the tip of any new limb formed so that is
our opening for attack,otherwise it will have to be random slashing until you
hit the heart".
---
When Might had finished speaking San walked
over to Skye,"I need you to talk to you outside in private"
"Hack and slash, alright. And to think that this vaction was going to be boring. Who knew such entertainment would be provided." Fu Fu said, with a little hop.
"essentially yes...but since they`ve already found us I guess its time we move out,no more time to practice I'm afraid,you should all rest up,I`ll secure us a boat to travel to the mainland in a few hours...",he put on his robes and walked out.
Skye glared at
Sanjuro.
"Leave me alone will you?"
--------
India rolled her
eyes and hurried after Might.
When she caught up to him she put a hand on his
shoulder.
"Oh come on...rest up. Don't go and overwork yourself."
"I won`t until if
you listen to the truth and accept it for what it is,I`ve always trusted you,why
can`t you put your faith in me just once?"
---
"I`m fine,don`t
worry,just a little shaken up"
"Damnit Sanjuro
Light!! Leave me alone!! I WONT tell you again!!!"
----
India
shrugged.
"...Why? I mean there's really no reason is there?"
Plushie-Liger Zero had to cover his ears from Skye's screaming. He REALLY wished the two would get along again soon.
"well too damn
bad,what makes it so hard for you to trust me just ONCE after I put my faith and
support you so many times,what makes that fair huh?"
---
"Miss
India...I can sense evil in all directions and all forms,I was almost
overwhelmed just being beside it...when it took me inside it can you imagine
what it felt like to feel evil ALL around you,touching every surface of your
body..."
Ashlon looked at San and Skye. "..." Mitch held his wings up to his ears and shook his head.
Skye pulled away
from Sanjuro and whispered to him.
"You're an idiot who doesn't deserve any
of my attention EVER."
-----
India smirked.
"Well yeah I know
how that feels...but I'm not scared by it...I can't be can I? Nah...you can't be
scared by being Inside an evil...too much to do and protect."
San quickly took
off the rolling cutter and stabbed it into the ground in one enraged
motion.
"I`ve had enough Skye I really have,you know what,just fuck you
okay I`m tired of being kicked around for just supporting you,good fucking luck
and try to die while your fighting I`m out of here"
He walked out of
Mights home and into the city looking for a way back to where to used to come
from.
She nodded.
"I
hope you die Sanjuro." She turned and walked out from that place.
Sokuro
sat on the sill, with a sweatdrop.
<....Humans...>
DM smirked a
lil. "I never could understand people."
Pang scratched the back of his head,"which is why I gave up long ago,heck I can`t even understand Rogo half the time,but I think thats because hes missing a few screws"
Medley approached
Cremo after the fight, as everyone walked back to Might's house. She'd seen
Cremo's powers and asked to show her how he did it.
"Well, it's kinda what I
do. I prefer Cremo, but technically my name is Fire Man."
"I'm Medley. Do you
think you could teach me how to make fire like that?"
Cremo raised an
eyebrow. "Like I said, it's... it's just kind of what I do. San has his cutter,
he's Cut Man. Skye uses her staff, and she can do stuff with the weather, never
really understood it, but she's Tempest Man. And I'm Fire Man."
It occured to
Medley that with all of the others around, she looked only vaguely like any one
of them. Right about then was when they had reached Might's house, so she asked
him to come around the back. As they left the group, she changed again, until
she was more like Cremo than anyone else. And a He again.
"Whoa, how
did-"
"I told you, I'm Medley. It's just kind of what I do."
Skye sat down out
in the wooded area around Might's house. She smirked and closed her eyes, then
looked up to the sky. "Finally."
--------
India nudged
Might.
"Are you listening to me??"
-----
DM and Sokuro were
looking at one another.
"Whats up with you rat?"
<Im not a
rat>
"....Hm..then what are you?"
<A magic
mew.>
"...?"
<I'm magic...thats what I do.>
Might : "yes...yes I`m listening,sorry...I apologize my mind was wandering,the harbour isn`t much further"
Medley, somewhat
exhaustedly, gave Cremo a quick explanation of his power, how he couldn't
control it, yadda yadda yadda.
"I get it... you saw me doin' my stuff and
wanted to find out if you can too."
"Something like that."
"Well, alright,
hang on a second." Cremo cleared a patch of ground, made a small pile of sticks
and leaves, and surrounded that with a circle of rocks. "Just concentrate on
that spot, and think of fire, and heat."
Medley concentrated, and even leaned
over a bit, but nothing happened.
"Alright... try extending your arm... like
this." Cremo held out a hand, plam facing the leaves, and they burst into
flames. Then he closed his hand and pulled it away, and the fire disappeared
just as suddenly.
Medley did the same, but failed again. "It's not
working."
"Um... you said you can almost hear other people, right? Well, try
concentrating on whatever I sound like at the same time."
Medley did the same
thing again, but this time tried to ignore the other sources of energy around
him besides Cremo. After a few seconds, he felt another kind of energy, building
up inside him, and he tried desperately to contain it, or at least focus
it.
His sleeve caught on fire, and before he could even shout, Cremo snuffed
it out with a wave of his hand. "It's a start, but maybe we should clear a space
for you to stand, as well."
