The Escapist Avatar Adventure: An Open RP (Now Re-Opened!)

[000Ronald]

T MINUS 25 MINUTES TO PURGE

"Didn't we just do this?" Edge asked. "The purge thing, I mean. Does this happen often?"

Boss ran over to Edge. "Are you alright?"

"Fine." Edge said. "Just a scratch. Been much worse."

Edge took a deep breath and noticed a sharp stabbing pain in his side. Bad. He fell back down on one knee.

"...your side is bleeding." Boss said, kneeling. "Bad. You need to-"

"It's not important." Edge said. "There are bigger things going on."

Boss looked at the rest of the group, then back to Edge. "Come on. We're going to the ship Tomoya mentioned. With any luck-"

"NO!" Edge said. "Go help-"

"I won't be any help in a fight." Boss said. "And someone needs to help you."

Pointman took his suit but ran towards the bridge. There was something there that he saw earlier.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

[color=grey]"EVERYONE, Quit Lolly-gagging and get a Move on! There is no time to waste"[/color]

Zero Shouted though the speakers as Snake set the Tram towards the Hanger.
Soon the entire group was on the Tram heading for Navigational Control Centre.

Spoiler: NOTICE

Course has been changed due to Misreading

 

[bluerocker]

When Angelus saw that the group was preparing to leave, and the nerd plugged up the vent, she used her strength to finally drag Caim away kicking and arguing the entire way to the tram.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Fortunately for Caim, The Aliens kept up with the tram rather well though other vents and the battle continued much to his delight.
Snake kept firing at them, least until his Clip ran out.
"Shit! I'm Out!" He said as he changed his position to the centre of the tram, away from the incoming attackers, While CQC was useful, it would get him killed here.

 

[NerfedFalcon]

When Snake said he'd run out of bullets, Mokou passed her still-unused pistol and sniper rifle to him, saying that if he didn't shoot it so much it overheated he'd be fine. That allowed her to easily switch back to blasting fire. As the tram came up past a pipe, she asked Caim to try cutting it open. If it contained something flammable, she reasoned, she could make a tough barrier for the aliens to pass.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Snake accepted the weapons and used the rifle to pick off those appearing from the vents in the walls.
"They're coming out of the god-damn walls!" He shouted as he took 3 out with a single shot.

[color=seagreen]"Snake, I thought you said you didn't like "Aliens"...[/color]

Para-medic chipped in.

 

[bluerocker]

Caim, without any great effort on his part, Caim happily sliced the pipe as they passed on by. Angelus was leaving cover fire with her, well, flames, and signaled to Mokou with a small firebird, "Now's your chance!"

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman had to the bridge, he had expected it to be filled with xenomorphs. But instead he found a pile of dead aliens and lots of acidic blood everywhere. He began to look around looking for the source of the dead aliens.

 

[StormShaun]

Tomoya was walking on the Spacewalk, it seemed everyone ignored him totally. Tomoya sighed again as he looked at space and admired his surroundings, good thing the spacewalk had a hand rail with a conveyer belt so it made traveling faster then the tram. The bad part of taking the tram is that they forgot about the giant hole in the middle made by the aliens on purpose.

Another sigh breathed inside of Tomoya's helmet as he remembered it. But he knew that they could live...maybe.

Tomoya entered the emergency exit at the science bay and soon began to close on the Navigation control center where he could wait for everyone.

 

[ChillzMaster]

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!" Rainbow Dash screamed as she was kicked out of the interstellar Swedish Space Ship.

"That's the last time she'll lose at Rock-Paper Scissors in our part of town," Frank chuckled, guzzling down some apple cider. Severin snapped his robotic fingers and a small rift opened in space, along the path the cyan mare was following. The pony went into the rift, and disappeared.

"How the hell can you snap with metal anyway?" Drek inquired, drawing a few Yu-Gi-Oh cards.

================================================================================================

The various members of the anti-xenomorphs fired their weapons at the incoming xenomorphs, the fight becoming more and more hectic. A prismatic spectrum of light erupted before the eyes of those riding the tram...

...and then Rainbow Dash.

The dazed pegasus lied down on the tram, a bit woozy from her teleportation.

"So who's the enemy this time? Tiberius?" she muttered, cursing the other three in her head.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Snake recoiled as an Alien's blood spattered too close to his face, tripping over Dash and into the pit that was eaten though the Tram by Alien Blood.
He managed to grab onto the edge of the pit before he was crushed under the Tram.
The Acid was still potent around the edges of the growing pit and Snake was losing his grip...
A sign post read "To Manual Control"

Spoiler: Yeeeaaahhhh...

See I misread a post earlier and sent the group WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY towards the wrong direction, It's fixed now, We'll meet Tomoya at Manual Control.
As for Snake, I'll be changing characters again so help, don't help, whatever

 

[StormShaun]

As Tomoya could even reach the Control Room he spotted The Chief Scientist's Office. Tomoya snuck a peek inside, there was a light on and nobody inside. As Tomoya closed the door behind him as he entered he still noticed the console was still on and someone was typing on it.

"To whoever picks this up, this may be the last time you hear of me...I think. Never mind that, the previous version of me had everyone's powers locked up and I found out how. It's a stone, not any stone but a powerful stone. It absorbs and stores any powers that come onto this ship. That's why everyone's powers are limited, but break this stone and everyone's powers should come back slowly. Quickly do it bAWEfgsrg...." Was what was on the computer. Tomoya knew it was Dillon who typed it, he began to search for this stone. He had previous got the knowledge from the previous Commander that Dillon hid the stone in his office.

A few minutes later Tomoya overturned the room in search for the stone he needed to destroy it to gain his powers back. As he inspected the destroyed room he spotted a small vault located behind a photo of the previous crew which had everyone in it smiling and happy. "What went wrong I wonder" Tomoya said to himself.

As he threw the photograph away he easily opened the vault with a well placed gun shot. The stone laid inside, as Tomoya picked it up he felt a buzzing inside. It was the Essence of power. Quickly Tomoya threw it to the ground and stomped on it and a giant burst of energy quickly exploded and went out through the ship. Everyone had their powers granted back and the ones without stolen powers felt stronger then ever.

Electricity of the ship coiled Tomoya for a brief moment as though it had come back to it's master but disappeared in a second. Words came to Tomoya's mind quickly like a returning headache. "Archangel Power Unlock Key! Archangel Power Unlock Key!Archangel Power Unlock Key!Archangel Power Unlock Key!" It repeated itself forever until Tomoya was about to pronounce the words but heard a loud noise come from the tram station.

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman looked around before a red ball of spychic energy wizzed past him. He duck rolled and fired at... nothing? He turned around again only to see a hand covered in a red aura grab his throat. He kicked away and began to fire at his dead ghost brother Fettel. He backed up and fighting insued.

 

[Moros]

On orders from the Queen, the 4 Praetorians were silently stalking the group. Waiting for the perfect time to strike. They saw their opportunity when one of them pulled another out of a hole. They quickly swooped in and began their attack.

Present Time

James was looking at the castle before him and was impressed. "It also comes with a private underground runway big enough for a Lear Jet along with large hidden underground chambers for whatever you have planned. What do you think?" the Seller asked him. James thought a moment before speaking up. "I'll take it. What has the construction company said about the plans I gave you?" James asked him in return. "They said it'll take about 2 months to complete at full strength. The estimate cost they gave was around 50 million dollars," the Seller told before waiting for a reply. "Tell them they got a deal and begin construction. I'll be checking in once a week to see how things are moving. That'll be all," James said dismissing the Seller. His plans were starting to come together.

 

[NerfedFalcon]

Still on the tram, Mokou looked down at the newcomer. "Never heard of anyone like that," she said about Tiberius. "Anyway, I don't know what they are, but they're hungry and hard to kill..." ...and I highly doubt you'll be of much help. She looked back towards the walls, but there were no more pipes and she'd missed the first lot somehow - anyway, somehow it didn't seem likely that the flames would keep them all back.

That was when the four incredibly tall ones came from nowhere, breaking up onto different targets. One seemed to go for the downed equine, but a bout of spontaneous combustion seemed to change its mind somewhat and it started just charging generally about the room.

 

[Sithmorack]

Pointman rolled out of cover to take a few shots at Fettel. But his brother just shrugged them off and got closer trying to go for cqc. Pointman used his slow mo ability to try to gain leverage but then he realized his mistake. He dove behind cover just as Fettel sent a shockwave destroying the room. He got up and continued to fight his somehow dead alive brother. His brother on he other hand kept saying snide remarks the whole time.

 

[ChillzMaster]

Rainbow Dash eyed the incoming aliens and sighed.

"Not these guys..." she muttered, remembering the slideshow presentation Sev had made to inform her on how to fight them.

She slammed a hoof on the ground, where a small garrison-able turret chinked and clanked and grew from a small chip in the pegasus's hoof.

The cyan mare then started tapping a small pressure plate, firing lazer beams at the incoming horde.

 

[bluerocker]

Caim grinned, his powers returning in full, and felt Sword&Comet in his sword once more.
"Let's rip and tear fellas!"
With that, Caim continued to do what Caim does best; with Angelus helping alongside him.

 

[000Ronald]

The effect was swift and powerful. It was as though a sixth sense had been restored to Boss, one that he had missed dearly, as though an arm or a leg had come back to life. His powers had returned.

But they hadn't returned fully. He was still diminished.

Be happy with what you have. Boss said to himself. And that you aren't dead.

An Alien ran towards Boss and Edge. Boss took a deep breath and struck it with a psychic blow that should have reduced it into a pile of paste on the ground; instead it was flung some 30 feet back, and Boss felt he'd been struck in the head with a baseball bat, staggering backwards.

"Something's suppresing our powers." Edge said. "I don't know how..."

"No, they're back. Well, maybe not all the way, but there's something there that wasn't before."

Edge nodded, then took a deep breath. The blood around the wound he took began to boil, and the wound he took earlier closed rapidly. "That..." Edge said, slowly sitting down. "Takes care of that. But I'm down for the count now. Lost too much blood."

Boss nodded. "I'll take care of it." Something caught Boss's eye; Snake was dangling from the edge of the hole in the middle of the tram. Boss willed him to be standing next to him...but it didn't work. So no teleportation. Boss thought. Boss tried gripping the one hand telekinetically. That worked. "Hold on, Snake, I'm bringing you back up."

Spoiler: Some stuff

Does anyone remember all the way back here [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/540.101127-The-Escapist-Avatar-Adventure-An-Open-RP-Now-Re-Opened?page=318#13951479] when I said Edge could heal himself and others using water? Yeah, that's basically what he did, but substituted blood for water. Being as the Water Arts are meant to be used with fresh water, he lost a lot of blood doing it. That being said, I don't plan on him dying, just...not fighting. Well, not a lot.
