We Are Our Avatars IX: Act V: The Sabotage of the Scandolous Saurian Scoundrels (Open)

[Demonjazz]

"Well we fought this giant dragon... And the nameless one... And we helped Wookies."

 

[username sucks]

"Wookies? Nameless one? Never mind, you still can't match me. I guess I'll just have to show you once we get in an actual battle, since you're probably still too afraid to do any sparring."

 

[Demonjazz]

"I told you! I can fight! I'm just meant for defense is all! I hold off the enemies while everyone else fights them."

 

[Drakmorg]

"Oh, uh... Sorry. I'll try and be quick."

Vicky replied through the door, obviously feeling guilty about waking Sophia up. She quickly walked in and shut the door behind her.

"So how are you feeling?"

 

[Zepherus14]

Upon entering the room Victoria would notice that even now Sophia still looked a bit sleepy, although the toast and extra nap had helped her out tremendously. "All things considered... I'm alright I guess." Sophia answered, trying to feint a smile. "Oh, right!" Sophia's eyes widened suddenly as she remembered, looking around herself. "Where did I put it?" Sophia asked as she looked over the opposite side of her bed.

 

[Drakmorg]

"Well that's good. You need anythi--"

Vicky replied, stopping when she noticed Sophia looking for something.

"Uh, need help finding something?"

She asked, scratching her head with her right hand.

 

[Kirke]

You slam your fist into the control console, to which your ship responds with a slight swaying. Activating the autopilot, you turn to face your passengers. You sigh and say that you underestimated "Silence", even though you knew how dangerous he is.

 

[Slenn]

The sisters plopped themselves on whatever was there for chairs. All three of them were panting in various degrees of exhaustion after cooling themselves down to ground state energy, with Gwen and Emily being the most depleted... and the most aggravated.

<color=purple>"Killing us three times over my ass! The only thing that guy has demonstrated is his lack of ability to speak and how fast he can run away!" She groaned.

"The next time I see him try and run away I'm going to EMP him and his bike so hard that those electronics are going to pray for their lives."

Winona seemed to be the least frustrated.
<color=green>"At least I got to try out that muon beam. I haven't done that in a while. Shara, you said you knew this guy? Where is he from? I mean, you said he was a powerful fighter."

 

[Zepherus14]

"No I got it." Sophia said as she pulled her bag up onto the bed from the opposite side. She unhooked the flap and opened her bag, rummaging in it for a moment before finally looking up to Victoria again. "Actually yes, I do need something. I need you to close your eyes and stick out your hands." She said, seeming a bit of a higher spirit now than she had before.

 

[Kirke]

You nod, and say that the Mason's have met him as well. You do not know how it is possible, but you are certain "Silence" actually is Sam, the master swordsman they defeated in Pakistan.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus looked at Shara, disbelievingly. "We saw him die."

 

[Slenn]

"Wait you mean Minuano, the guy who got taken down in a few hits? What does he want from us if he wanted us to take down Desperado? Why is he hesitant to give us information if we did what he wanted us to do?"

<color=purple>"We could've gotten lucky with killing him, and we just hit him in a critical point."

 

[Kirke]

You look at Samus and nod. It is hard for you to understand as well, you say, and it is hardly that you believe your own senses. You then glance over at EMily, and point out that you don't know his motives any more than she. You also add that half a dozen on one does not require much luck, and it is a testament to his skill that he survived as long as he did.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"...well, I have seen people revived through cybernetics before..." Samus said, looking uncomfortable. "It is not too unbelievable." She disengaged her armour.

 

[Slenn]

"I suppose that's true. But even then he went down much faster than his three other partners, who were supposed to be in the same tier of difficulty with the same amount of people on him."

<color=purple>"By the way, Winona... good shot." Gwen said, looking downwards towards Winona, if only because she was shorter. Winona was sitting to the left of Gwen, and EMily to the right. Winona blushed a little and produced a meek:
<color=green>"Thank you." And smiled as her body seemed to scrunch in shyness.

"All that matters now is that we need to return to our group and get ready to intercept the knights."

 

[Drakmorg]

"Not really a huge fan of surprises... But alright."

Victoria reluctantly replied to Sophia. She shut her eyes and held out her hands, cupping them together and holding them out as far as her straightened arms would stretch to.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Samus nodded to Emily, agreeing with her, before her eye drifted to the remarkable sight of Winona becoming even smaller.

 

[Kirke]

You turn around and take to the controls to bring your ship around to head back. As you do, you tell EMily that his partners were cyborgs, he was not.

 

[Slenn]

"That would make sense if he wasn't cybernetic, if he disliked the direction Desperado was going in. Oh, that's right. I didn't feel that much strong electronic activity within him."

 

[Kirke]

You shrug and wonder to yourself who Sam was brought back by. Not to mention, to what end. These questions are bubbling in your mind as you set the ship down.
