Robots were coming at me from all sides... Now I was certain that I was in some Sci-fi story. I got my revolver out, and got hold of one of my essences. An essence of Protection. I said some of those generic magic words and cast a shield. It would hold up to any gun, how many it could take I wasn't sure. I stepped up with the rest of the group and took shots with Ole Jeremy at the robots. Wasn't likely to run out of ammo, carried around a couple boxes in my coat. If any came near me, than I'd probably crack the pistol on their head.

"I'm aware. And, it can." Elm confirmed. "While portals can be created using only set coordinates, it's generally done on visual data, instead. As the locations moves, the portal is adjusted accordingly, effectively anchoring the portal in the desired space."

[color=edc393]"70,000?"[/color] Sam chimed in, after Elm finished speaking. [color=edc393]"That's, what? Mach 70?"[/color]

Joel hardened his body even more, which had the additional effect of creating more heat. [color=003399]"Someone give me a fucking hand with these things!"[/color] he yelled, while trying to throw the robots off with his free right hand.

Matilda continued to throw knives at the robots.

EMily fired one lightning bolt alongside Gwen, who pushed the remaining two bots together with gravity tugs. Winona stood by to gather energy, but was directed by Sara to go help Joel with the bots. If she got there in time she would be swinging both her hammers at them.

Sara's built up energy was at the point that she could fire something from a distance. She took her sword and jammed it into the ground. A fusion burst fired from her sword at the robot production.

OOC: Note the burst is not a nuclear bomb, it's the energy released during a fusion reaction.

You shrug in response to both, then tell Sam that you haven't heard of "machs" before. You add that you'll reach Mars in about two hours, and the gravity sling you'll get will put you on the right path to Uranus. With an additional burn there, you'll accelerate quite a lot to get there in a reasonable time.

Elsewhere in the city, a pack of soldier-bots broke into a jewelry store, and after killing the workers inside, found the safe which contained the chunk of Australium that had provoked the invasion. The robots took the safe to the nearest carrier tank, which immediately drove back into the ocean.

"Yes! I have the Australium!" The voice said from the speaker on the nearest carrier tank to the group."Look at how your efforts were in vain! Now to destroy the rest of the- wait, stop breaking my robots! Those are expensive, you know!"

Samus was able to destroy the bots that were attacking her, but she would find that three more batbots began chasing her, and a blue targeting laser from a rooftop in the city had focused on the back of her helmet.

Kenna's Giant Swing successfully knocked down all of the robots surrounding her, but most of them quickly got back to their feet and mindlessly charged at her again.

As Winona arrived to help Joel, three of the robots on Joel broke off and charged at her, but were easily dispatched by her hammers. Joel now only had two robots trying to hold him down.

EMily and Gwen's combined attack destroyed the remaining robots that were trying to reach the sisters.

Another pack of ten newly built scout-bots charged at Matilda and Mr Stone, but were quickly dispatched by their knives and bullets.

Sara's blast took out a large portion of the machinery in the carrier tank, but a small amount remained functional. Now only three robots were built at a time instead of ten.

Alain stood back for a while as he realized what was going on, then ran inside the ship to grab his hammer. He emerged from the ship not long after, looking around the battlefield as he debated whether he should even join the fight. Finally, in a decision that was more recklessness than courage, he began running towards Kenna to assist her.

"Noooooo[sub]oooo...[/sub] You damaged my carrier! Now the insurance is going to shoot up! The deductible alone will cost me a fortune! That's it, screw killing everyone in this city, I just want YOU PEOPLE DEAD! All robots, converge on carrier number seven!" The man ordered through the loudspeaker. As he finished speaking, robots from across the city all began making thier way to the group, although it would take some time for them to get within fighting range. If anyone was looking towards the city, they would see an army of many different kinds of robots, charging towards the beach. In the back of this horde were several giant robots which stood over fifteen feet tall, also heading to kill everyone near Dave's ship.

[color=003399]"I think we really need to get away from here!"[/color] Joel yelled, attempting to throw both Scout-bots off his body and charge back to the ship.

Matilda, having run out of knives to throw, retreated to further within the ship.

There were what looked like giant bombs on legs running towards us... We were screwed. But I carried on the hopeless fight as I usually did. I always did. Most say I have a death wish, truth is that I probably do. Perhaps I'm just fed up with the world and want to die. I found myself holding a gun to my head before in my life... But right before I pressed the trigger I always thought of Lenore, and knew that one person cared about what happened too me. Sure she wasn't with me anymore but I knew that she still cared. She said that my life was just too dangerous and she needed somebody with a stable job. From the way she said I just knew that she was sincere, A thing I never said about anybody else in my lifetime. I looked at the army of robots and said a prayer. I thought that I was done for. That was right before I heard the sound of large lasers overhead. Apparently the robot man decided that we were worth wasting ammo over now. Those lasers were aimed directly at those bomb robots.

[color=edc393]"No?"[/color] Sam asked questioningly, then shrugged lightly, raising his left shoulder more then the right. [color=edc393]"Here I thought English was the same, where ever you go. Strange."[/color]

"You mentioned scanning the craft?" Elm began, a little at Sam finished speaking. "I'm aware this craft has a scanning function on it, but what could it detect? Could it detect lifeforms, through the hole?"

Indeed, there was someone - or rather, something - watching the city, the Watching still hovering about. Drawn to it by the ruckus caused by the marching of several hundreds of robots, the Watcher pulled its gaze away from the battle, and looked over to the approaching horde, zooming in and out where needed, to get good looks at the features of each model.

Seras and Faro had been rather seriously beaten up, so they had retreated to wait for their healing factors to kick in.

Seras, Faro, Joel, and Matilda would not have much trouble retreating, as the creation of new Scout-bots had been slowed down.

The laser on Dave's ship took out a few of the Sentry Busters, which exploded and killed nearby robots, but it could not keep up with all the carriers constantly building robots. The army of robots marched onward to the group, unfazed by the explosions and lasers all around.

Alain began swinging at the nearby Scout-bots, taking a few hits from bats, but not anything that was able to break through his magical ward. He missed his first few swings before he finally managed to hit one of the robots, knocking its head off of its body. He laughed as he realized what he did, and continued swinging wildly all around.

Seras and Faro used their distance to try and circle around to the front of the tank without being detected. They would then try to tip the tank back, thus blocking off the creation of new bots.

Turns out that lasers aren't all what they were cracked up to be. I had noticed that the robot pilot had focused more of his fire on the factories. He seemed to keep a fair amount of those bombs on legs off though. I was moving in on the factories. I know what I needed to do. I always kept a little something with me in case of any invasions on the Earth... No I'm not paranoid! There's at least one report of attempted portals to Hell each month! And believe me, demons are some serious shit.

Joel sheathed the Murasama and walked into the cockpit. [color=003399]"I think we should get ready to take off right about now."[/color] he said to Dave.

<color=brown>"Fall back, sisters." Sara commanded. <color=brown>"There's too many of them. EMily, target the crippled production carrier."

EMily charged up and fired a barrage of three lightning bolts at the carrier. After which, the sisters stood by at the inside of the entrance to the ship.

A bit earlier as I didn't notice that Kirke had actually replied to me before.

As the main door opened up, Jinzi took to the sky like a rocket. Buzzing in the air as she surveyed what was going on. Seeing the majority of the robots run off and only five actually come after butterfly man she scowled. [color=00c0c0]"Azmot, those bastards are ignoring us!!"[/color] She snarled, raising her gun as she started pegging the robots that were running away to attack the civilians that had run from the carrier in front of them.

When Jinzi fired, she would be firing with startling accuracy. Unless the scout bots moved to avoid the shots, Jinzi would fire one shot to the head, the torso, the hand holding a shotgun, and the hip of one robot respectively. All of which would be one of the robots that were not part of the five coming towards Azmot. The pistol shots themselves were pretty powerful, easily piercing the scout bots thin armour. The used bullet cartridges disappearing shortly after they were used.

"Just be careful, we don't know exactly what these things can do." Azmot said as he bend his legs and extended his arms to the side as a large chaingun manifested itself in his hands. "Just keep an eye out for me, I'll see about taking out this carrier." He said as he rev'd up the gun as it launched a couple grenade at the five charging scouts, and then tilted the gun up further as it headed for the carrier itself. The grenades would explode on impact.

EMily's EMP disabled the remainder of the robot production in the carrier, but it soon started up again a few seconds later.

The two Kryptonians vampires were able to lift the enormous carrier, but they would soon find the targeting lasers from distant sniper-bots pointing at them as they were holding the tank.

The lasers on Dave's ship were not positioned to hit the interior of any of the carriers, so they only caused minor damage to the exterior armor.

Dave cursed at Joel for having the nerve to give orders, but agreed that they should leave and began making preparations for liftoff.

Jinzi's first shot to the robot's head was enough to kill it, and the shot to the hand caused another robot to drop it's weapon, which it didn't seem to notice. However, the shots to the torso and hip had little effect. Azmot's grenades killed the five closest scouts easily, and the grenades aimed at the inside of a carrier took out only a small portion of the robot production.

Samus fell back, running to the ship with the others. As she turned, she noticed the laser on her visor, and began ducking and weaving as she ran, though this slowed her a little.

"Screw the tank, just run!" Kenna shouted to the vampires, before turning on her heel and flat out sprinting back to the ship.

Gwen kicked up a boulder sized chunk of sand with her built up energy. She brought it closer to them from the exit to the ship.
<color=purple>"Sara, now!" And Sara plunged her sword into the levitated sand ball, superheating it into molten silicate with a minor fission reaction. The hot slag was then broken apart into multiple sharp glass shards that were directed by Sara and Gwen, the latter of whom had complete control of their direction. The slag would cool through the air to form the aforementioned shards. Like a glass mini-gun, it sprayed over the remaining bots that were present.

"Get inside! Quickly!" EMily called out.

[color=00c0c0]"Nice shot there~"[/color] Jinzi said as she continued to buzz along in the sky, having seen the devastation the grenade had on the robots. She also noted how shooting the robots in the head seemed to be their weak point of all things. [color=00c0c0]"Persistent, aren't they? Oh well~"[/color] Her lower arms shrugged as she used her four arms to grip the two guns with two hands. She then pivoted in the air as she rocketed lower to the ground, laughing excitedly. [color=00c0c0]"3. 4. 4. 5. 5."[/color] She counted off as she pegged another five robots in the head.

Azmot however continued to unload into the carrier, slowly approaching the structure as he continued.
