Cannon fodder (fantasy superpower rp) (closed, started)

[nuba km]

As the group walked back the screeches became louder but less intense, what ever was making was most likely coming closer but dropping in intensity. After one distant explosion noise there was a significant drop, and shortly after the screeches stopped. In the distance the group could see someone running trough the forest from the direction the screeches came form.

Okay, dead monkeys, spiders probably eating them. Since when were spiders ever a good thing until now? Oh well, perhaps we should get a spider when OH MY GODS PEOPLE!

Fromanzio ran up to the group and found that it was indeed the people he had been travelling with. The look on their faces when he ran up to them unscaved was pretty amusing but his first question was, "Are Fromanzio's bombs safe? We might need them soon."

 

[Lunar Templar]

Rias eyes lit up with pure, seething rage "YOU STUPID, FUCKING, CLOWN!! YOU LEAD THOSE THINGS TO US?!?!?! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW DANGEROUS RAPTOR APES ARE?!!" Rias shouted, before forcible taking a few, deep calming breaths "your bombs are fine, now restock" she turned to Claire "you grabs some to, if we really are going to get attacked by Raptor Apes anyone that can use a bomb should" she said more then angry she was concerned, she knew the reputation these apes have, and she wasn't inclined to getting killed by one

 

[drmigit2]

YOU STUPID, FUCKING, CLOWN!!

Fromanzio chuckled as she screamed her head off. "No no no, see Fromanzio blew them all up! Those that didn't got blown up got eaten by spiders. The talking cloud should have helped Fromanzio, oh well. So how did you guys kill the ent? Fromanzio must know each detail as you all had to think he killed poor Fromanzio right? You did kill him right?"

 

[Lunar Templar]

"No no no, see Fromanzio blew them all up! Those that didn't got blown up got eaten by spiders."

"thank the gods, all of them, for that ..." she said calming instantly "Fromanzio" she started waiting till she had is attention "this is probably the only time I'm going to say this, but 'i apologize for yelling at you'" she said with out any hint of the under lying venom she normally had for him.

"how did you guys kill the ent?
"we didn't, he left. you where the only one it had an issue with, so it was nicer to us" she said

 

[Floris2123]

William had been unhappy to see Fromanzio return. He had been worrried when Rias had started shouting, he didn't want to fight these creatures here Damn you Fromanzio! Still when he heard he had killed his enemies William looked a little bit less irritated.

"how did you guys kill the ent?
"we didn't, he left. you where the only one it had an issue with, so it was nicer to us"
William looked at Fromanzio with an stern look. "And don't even think of going back to the ent. We are doing something to compensate for the damage you caused." William points at Fromanzio making sure to sound angry. "And we don't want you to make an even bigger mess. So I am going to say this once more, you aren't allowed to go back. Got that?"

 

[drmigit2]

"And we don't want you to make an even bigger mess. So I am going to say this once more, you aren't allowed to go back. Got that?"

"No." Fromanzio's voice was more serious and cold than anything he had shown to be capable of. He threw a knife at a tree near William and said "The first chance Fromanzio gets. That tree is dead. He tried to kill Fromanzio and that will not be allowed. Then he sics the entire forest on him? There will be another fight and you can choose to help or sit back. It hardly matters."

Fromanzio went back to his chest, filled his bomb sack and said "Someone took my bombs. Who?"

 

[Floris2123]

"No." Fromanzio threw an knife next William into the tree. William looked unimpressed by this clowns threats. "The first chance Fromanzio gets. That tree is dead. He tried to kill Fromanzio and that will not be allowed. Then he sics the entire forest on him? There will be another fight and you can choose to help or sit back. It hardly matters." William looked irritated, William then noticed the sword in his hand and he looked at the back of Fromanzio... William managed to restrain himself. But if Fromanzio would prove to be an further irritation for the group, they would have to fight at some point. That fight wouldn't be pretty.

 

[drmigit2]

Fromanzio turned around to face the group and saw William holding his sword hilt and looking very very angry. Fromanzio had a large smile and asked him in a playful but low pitched tone "Are ya gonna try it? Hehehe be my guest but you won't last very long." Fromanzio had a hand on his knives ready to go. Probably was a good thing he had refilled on bombs, Rias would probably join in and Bom would stand on the side. Clair might join Bom but certainly wouldn't join Fromanzio. He would probably have to kill them all if it came down to it.

 

[Lunar Templar]

"you can choose to help or sit back. It hardly matters."
"your on your own then. go, pursue your petty revenge, we'd probably be better off with out you anyway" Rias said as Fromanzio and William started to, what looked like square off and then rolled her eyes "right, you two do that, i have a country i actually like to try and save, so you two can just screw off back here if you want, I'm leaving" Rias said as she got the horse to move past the two men, she wasn't having any of it, as much as she would have like Fromanzio dead, she also knew that after this business was finish she'd never have to look at him again. gone, or dead where pretty much equal in her mind.

 

[Floris2123]

William had moved on from any murderous intent when Fromanzio started talking. "Are ya gonna try it? Hehehe be my guest but you won't last very long." William merely looked at the clown. "Why would I fight you? I don't have anything to gain from killing you, and we are on the same side." William sheathed his sword and walked on. Following Rias, her comment were based on a fight that wouldn't happen so he didn't care about them much. William did make an note to keep an very close eye on Fromanzio. He would have to look out for that crazy clown, he didn't want to be blown up while he was sleeping.

 

[drmigit2]

"your on your own then. go, pursue your petty revenge, we'd probably be better off with out you anyway"
Fromanzio chuckled again. "Rias, so assuming of everything! The fight will be coming to me. That ent isn't going stop until Fromanzio is dead and so with a bit of patience, we will get to turn it into firewood."

"Why would I fight you? I don't have anything to gain from killing you, and we are on the same side."

Fromanzio gathered his horse laughing. "Indeed we are! Also, since nobody seems to be saying it, ""Welcome back Fromanzio! We were so worried! Good to see you alright and not flat."""

Truth be told, Fromanzio had pretty much cemented in his mind that at some point he would be assassinating William and that there was little anyone could do to stop him.

 

[Lunar Templar]

"Rias, so assuming of everything! The fight will be coming to me. That ent isn't going stop until Fromanzio is dead and so with a bit of patience, we will get to turn it into firewood."

"in that case" she began "when it dose come, YOU will be fighting it alone. I will not help you and i doubt the others would as well. make no mistake Fromanzio, i am not on your side, nor will i 'have your back' in any fight you started for your 'revenge'. i will continue on and ignore your battle completely" Rias said stopping a turning toward Fromanzio "weather you survive or not will be totally up to you" then turned and continued on her way

 

[maninahat]

Bom was aghast to see Fromanzio again.

"You're not dead!" He shouted. It sounded like an accusation. "How on earth did you...?"

He was too flabbergasted to finish. He had seen the jester fly off over the hills, and yet here he was, somehow still in one piece. It didn't make any sense.

Whilst he was pondering over the issue, he became aware that Fromanzio and the others were already at each other's throats. Luckily, everyone seemed to finally reach an unspoken agreement in which they would wait until later to kill each other. It was a compromise Bom could accept.

"Well, it's good that you're back," said Bom. "We've already wasted enough time, following a... cow. It's time to get on with our mission."

 

[Floris2123]

"Indeed we are! Also, since nobody seems to be saying it, "Welcome back Fromanzio! We were so worried! Good to see you alright and not flat." William ignored Fromanzio as he walked on. Fromanzio and I are not on the same side. I am sure that I will have to fight him one day when that damned clown turns completely insane. I do wonder if Fromanzio even realized that almost nobody was glad to see him back, since they dislike him. Maybe he doesn't even care? Or maybe he was just too dumb to realize it.

"when it dose come, YOU will be fighting it alone... I will continue on and ignore your battle completely weather you survive or not will be totally up to you" William agreed with her nodding his head as he kept walking. He grabbed his third sword since he still felt uneasy, he turned the sword around in his hand. As the merchant had said it was a excellent sword he was happy that he had bought it.

 

[nuba km]

After a couple of minuets of travelling back, a screech could be heard in the distance. Then a screech right above them, it looked like the screeching raptor monkeys left a scout to follow fromanzio, so they could re-group for their next attack. From the screeches coming from the forest, one much deeper could be heard, most likely the alpha male of the pack deciding to actually join the hunt.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Rias sighed, but kept moving "oh good ... from the sound of it we get to deal with the whole fucking pack now ... well done Fromanzio, well done ... " she said rolling her eyes and listening to the screeches, then she heard the deeper toned screech "ah and we get to deal with the alpha male of the area to from the sound of it, wonderful" her comments thick with sarcasm actually turning toward him now "i gotta say, when you make things worse then they have to be, you don't fuck around do you"

she said looking around, mostly up "there's probably a scout hidden some where above us, telling the rest of these monsters where we are, if we can find it and kill it, that should give us some time." then she remembered who was with them "or, we can stop wait here so you can get your rocks off with more explosions"

 

[maninahat]

Bom kept hearing talk of Raptor monkeys. Not much of a naturalist, he couldn't quite figure out if they were at risk or not. Judging by the fact that Rias was swearing even more than usual, they must be a problem. He turned to her.

"Ms, if an, uh, encounter with the Raptor monkey's is likely, how should we, uh...you know...confront them?"

 

[drmigit2]

"Ms, if an, uh, encounter with the Raptor monkey's is likely, how should we, uh...you know...confront them?"

Fromanzio laughed and figured he could answer. "Well, Fromanzio had been chased by about fourty or so and he blew them up! Essentially they are a more mobile but less powerful version of the Sophronious. We should create a circle so that they can't flank us, because they will."

Fromanzio was mostly making this up, but they were monkeys who chased hard. How complex could they be? He grabbed his knives, with this many people around and monkeys attacking from all sides, knives would work better anyway.

"Oh also, what exactly is your power anyway? You have never made use of it." Fromanzio hoped it was something like best friend to monkeys, but whatever.

"or, we can stop wait here so you can get your rocks off with more explosions"

Fromanzio made a stern look at Rias and made a shhh noise. He was attempting to get a lock on where the monkey was. Fromanzio's assassin training made him good at this sort of thing.

 

[Lunar Templar]

"Ms, if an, uh, encounter with the Raptor monkey's is likely, how should we, uh...you know...confront them?"

"ideally, not at all. they are relentless when stalking prey, in this case, Fromanzio, and by relentless, i mean they are known to chase a target for days if need be." she started "the trope avoided them like the plague since the chances of getting away alive are slim, as for actually fighting them, they like to come at they're prey from all sides, from forest the floor to the tops of the trees, use flanking maneuvers and ambushes, also, by 'pack' i mean like 40 of them at a time" she said growing more pissed at Fromanzio for putting them in this situation

"a good place to start though would be finding that scout and killing it, they'll have a harder time finding us with out it to guide the rest to us" she said, giving Fromanzio a rude gesture for 'shhing' her
