Grey the Stampede

Grey: "Indeed.... PK Shield Sigma!!!"
As he rises into the air, the gunfire from the apaches is repelled from him, Shino, and Kari, having gotten that much more intense in the past few seconds. He rockets through the skies towards the waiting helicopter, and joins Janus, Kalar, and Garro among the rest of the warriors that had been recovered. He looked down at the devastation, and up at Jarukoth.
Janus: "You're one crazy idiot..."
Grey: "Don't talk to me about that right now."
He didn't want to say he had failed, but had he failed? Bah, who knew. So long as Jarukoth and Ada were safely married. And Kari...
Why Kari? Strange, really, that he'd feel that way all of a sudden. He glanced at her, and back down at his feet. That kind of devastation, all for a wedding. There had to be more to the story than what Jarukoth was telling them all.
Grey: "Jarukoth, you mentioned something earlier about children... I still don't quite understand it. Was that all the reason for this? What would really happen if you had a kid?" |

Jarukoth, Ada, and Nimue all scramble into the waiting helicopter a second before realizing two of thier comrades are still missing...
Jarukoth: "Oh for the love of crap..."
Shino remains in the middle of the battlefield, gunfire raining down around him, searching for one particular...comrade...of importance...
Shino: "Kari! Where are you? KARI!!"
In his search, Shino comes across Grey, who is no doubt looking for the same thing he is...
Shino goes over to Grey, and grabs his arm.
Shino: "Grey! Listen, we..."
Kari: "There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you two! We gotta go!"
As thier vision of loveliness dashes off, Shino scowls back at Grey a bit as he runs off to join her in the helicopter...
Shino: "...To be continued..." |

Nakase twisted her body around, evading the oncoming attacks of the Tauren and quicky countering with a nasty slash from her katana. At some point, she ran up a Tauren's back, and began to jump from beast to beast, slicing downward at the enemy she had jumped away from.
From her elevated point, she noticed a green and red fellow running back to the building.
Nakase: Why are you running back?
Kirby: We gotta get back! That 'copter's gonna fire missiles. I never trust anyone to be firing missiles in the area I'm fighting in ever since I was killed by them.
Nakase put her attention back into the Tauren. Just a little more wouldn't hurt...
All of a sudden, the brunette felt her body being swept up in the middle of the air. She attempted to struggle, but soon realized who had picked her up.
Kirby: Too bad.
Nakase: Aw...
And with that, the two had made it back to the building. |

Grey leaped out of the crowd after releasing a green shockwave of PK power outward from himself, knocking rows and rows of Tauren back. He waved to Janus, who nodded and signaled to Garro and Kalar, who were still blowing through ranks of the army. Grey dashed through the crowd letting off wave after wave of energy, with his comrades running behind him...
But he stopped, as Janus, Garro, and Kalar made it to the helicopters...
Janus: "Grey, what's wrong? Come on!"
Grey: "I... No.... Go on ahead, wait for me!"
Garro: "There's no much time, those apaches will slice you to ribbons!"
Grey: "I don't care about that right now! There's something... more important..."
Janus groaned as he dragged Garro and Kalar away, to the escape choppers. When Grey got like this, there really wasn't any convincing him otherwise.
Grey, however, continued to look around feverishly.
Where was Kari? |

OOC: Sorry for my abscence. Let's take it home! ----------------------------------------
The battle had gone on for what seemed like hours. Craters, puddles of water, and Tauren bodies lied all around the outer perimeter of the Acmlmboard, and the fighters seemed rather spent.
As if that wasn't bad enough, the Tauren had chosen to try and overwhelm the defenders with thier numbers...a tactic that seemed to be working...
Jarukoth: "Damn it! Where is that idiot!?!?"
Rob *via ComLink*: "Right here!"
Suddenly, the roar of dozens of Attack Helicopters decend onto the horde, and rip into the crowd immediately with a hail of gunfire.
Moments later, a search and rescue copter pulls up alongside them, with Rob in the cockpit...
Rob: "Look, I know I'm late, but that's still no way to talk to your brother!"
Jarukoth: "Better late than never! What do we do now, genius?"
Rob: "I'm bringing the chopper down. We need to get everyone out of the way so the boys can let loose with the REAL firepower and take out the other Tauren. Now get your ass over here!"
Jarukoth responds with several more slices through the Tauren ranks, waving on his comrades. He only hoped they had heard Rob's shouts...

((Oh, wow. How did I forget to post here?))
"Rising Phoenix!"
A voice cried out from several stories up on the Acmlm Building. Moments later, a body, which seemed to be surrounded by fire, was soaring straight into the herd of already abused Tauren. A pair of blades were extended out of the fireball, and dug firery slash wounds into some of the Tuaren upon the body's landing.
As soon as the figure landed, the surrounding flames became extinguished. The figure was definitely standing out from everyone else with his blue cap, some stylish, black shades, and flowing, red cape. Aside from the extraordinary attire, he also wore a short sleeved, green t-shirt, blue jeans, and black boots.
To the untrained eye, this would seem like a super hero had just arrived on the scene. However, to those close to him, they would've realized it was actually Kirby.
------------------
OoC Kirby: Oh, sure. Give it away why don't you?
------------------
Kirby held out arms, both wielding a sword made of paper. He charged forward, pushing deeper into the herd. As soon as he was lost in the sea..
"Hunting Beast!"
The sound of a roaring lion was heard before a large circle of Tauren were knocked into the air.
In the meantime, Nakase had appeared with different clothes as well. She was wearing a black top with a large, red collar, and some rather puffy, brown pants. She also wore silver gauntlets with some red ribbon material wrapped around from wrist to the elbow.
Not wasting anytime, Nakase quickly performed a few quick hand motions after taking in a deep breath. She opened her mouth and began to breath out a stream of fire, igniting the Tauren. |

"Faster, Ami!"
The telekinetic bubble, once on it's way to the stratosphere of the planet, suddenly stops and reverses direction.
"AMI!!"
"I sense..."
"Ami, we can't go back there with your spirit under repair! You've already lost it once since that's happened, and I can't afford to let it happen aga-- What-the... Oh my God..."
As Korra looks down, he sees the Tauren... and Schwa and the others fighting alongside each-other against them.
"Ami, drop me out of the bubble. That's an order."
The bubble disappears for a split second, as Korra is sucked out and toward the ground below in a freefall. Ami quickly makes her way back toward Nimue, wherever she is...
Korra falls and falls, getting closer to the Tauren below...
"Hey guys... What's that?"
Schwa looks up for a moment, seeing something falling, but then refocuses his attention to the battle. He thrusts his hand outward, and the Royal Ball, as if with a mind of it's own, hovers in the air and launches itself into the Tauren crowd over and over and over again, moving so fast it's a blur. It strikes random points in the crowd, gaining data with each hit.
As Royal Ball attacks, Schwa then focuses and tries sensing the falling object... Meanwhile, Korra closes his eyes and thinks, "My plan better work, or I'm a goner." |
Jarukoth

Jarukoth: "Jansen must have summoned them," he says, slicing through Tauren after Tauren. "Jansen must have known he was outclassed, so he summoned them as a last ditch effort to kill us all..."
Shino: "Hell no, Grey! I'm not gonna let you outdo me!"
"Multi Size!"
As his body grows, he begins rolling himself foreward, running over many Tauren in the process on the way to Kari...
"Meat Tank!"
Suddenly, it occurs to Nimue that she doesn't know where two certain people are...
Nimue: "Ami! Korra! Where are you two?!?"
Jarukoth: "Yeah...and where the hell is Rob?"

Grey: "Kari! Watch out!"
Grey placed his fingers to his forehead and whipped them downward as he passed Kari and Shino, jets of fire bursting out of them in a wide, shotgun-like blaze, incinerating any Tauren that had the gall to get in his way.
"PK Fire Omega!!!"
Janus, of course, was cracking skull after skull of Tauren with his hammer, searching desperately for Jarukoth in the rampaging crowd, caring not about the wounds they inflicted upon him. All that mattered was one thing, which he acted upon as he noticed Jarukoth retreating. He moved like a bolt of electricity through a crowd of Tauren, slicing them bushido-style with his hammer as he reached Jarukoth's position.
Janus: "Jarukoth, any idea where they're coming from?"
He hurls his hammer at an oncoming Tauren and the weapon is hit backward at him...
"And why are they.... !"
The Tauren gets closer and Janus panics for a second, rushing forward and meeting its massive piece of wood with his hammer, currently occupied at the moment.
Kalar: "Ready...."
Garro: "Set...."
Kalar and Garro: "Spirit Hurricane!!!"
Left off in their own little world, Kalar and Garro form a bastardized version of Janus' combined technique, as Kalar whirls around under the influence of a direct blessing from Garro, generating a wave of holy energy that spreads outward from them both and knocks back line after line of Tauren... |
Jarukoth

Kari: "What the heck is everyone staring at?"
Kari opts to not worry about it for the moment, and rockets at the crowd of Tauren with her lightning speed, delivering a flying kick to the first one she sees...
A split second later, Schwa's Royal Ball smashes a Tauren beside her in the face, staggering it in the face and delaying those behind it.
Meanwhile, Jarukoth is also up at the front lines, fending off Tauren after Tauren with his katana.
Jarukoth: "Damn, this never seems to end..."
Ada: *via Comlink* "The left flank will overtake you if you don't pull back a bit. Retreat back, I'll cover you."
Jarukoth: "Got it."
Jarukoth cuts his assault short and makes a break for it, hearing shots ring out and grunts of pain all around him. After putting a good amount of distance between him and the Tauren, he looks back to see a large portion of the Tauren front line lying on the ground, dead, and slowly fading away...
Jarukoth: "...I really love that woman."
Shino runs in closer to Kari, but has trouble keeping up with her insane speed. In the meantime, he hurls several throwing daggers at what remained around Kari...
Shino: "Hang on! I'm coming!" |
Schwa

"May the Oracles and Sensae be with us... Enemy engaged!"
Schwa winds up his pitch and throws the Royal Ball, fastball style, at the nearest Tauren. It's clearly a 94 MPH throw as it is, but halfway to the foe the ball gains even more speed. Should this hit, it'll do light Oracle damage, but the Attack and Defense power of Schwa and ALL his allies climb a few points. Then the Ball would return to Schwa's hand as if guided.
Schwa stares at the retuned Ball. "Whoa! Didn't know it would do that! This IS my first time using, after all..."
Then he notices Kari by accident. He refocuses his attention to the Tauren immediately. "Practice makes perfect... and for God's sake, practice!" Some may not get his remark... |

By this time Grey's caught up with the rest of the crew, and gets nearly paralyzed with embarassment when he sees Kari remove a good third of her dress in front of him. His face red, he sorta looks away and sidles over to her...
Grey: "He... Uh, looking nice there, Miss Kari... You're certainly dressed to kill..."
Janus: "Yeah, so let's see how good you are at it!"
As Grey's three hitmen draw their weapons, Grey is left behind as the entirety of the front line charges the rampaging Tauren in the absolute coolest way possible: While wearing snazzy formal clothing. Not wanting to lose Kari now, he dashes forward and tries his best to keep up with the warriors as he claps his hands together and electricity surges around them. Garro's coat flares in the wind of his run as he draws and blesses both of his pistols, Kalar swirls his scythe with malice and flair, and Janus draws Satchel out of nothingness, only to hold it behind in him preparation for the first swing...
Janus: "For love, honor, and glory, we're ready to fight for you, Jarukoth!"
Kalar: "Grandeur and arrogance be gone, for we battle with true passion!"
Garro: "Hell be to those who disrupt so great a union!"
All three: "CHARGE!!!" |
Jarukoth

Jarukoth: "Alright, so what's happening right now?"
Jarukoth dashes out of the building with his katana in hand, throwing off his tuxedo jacket behind him...
Shino: "It's Jansen. He summoned all these Tauren here. He must have realized he had no chance to stop us directly, so he summoned them before he died in an attempt to stop us..."
Jarukoth: "Damn...So, what do you propose we do about this?"
Shino: "Well, I...I..."
Suddenly, Kari bursts out to join the rest of the group, still dressed in her bridesmaid outfit, checking out the situation. However, she realizes...
Kari: "Hey! I can't fight in this dress!"
Making a quick alteration, Kari tears at the bottom half of her dress, turning it into a skirt that doesn't even fully come down to her knees. The alteration makes the outfit easier to move around in, but also shows off a lot more leg...
Kari: "Ahh...that's better!"
Shino:
Jarukoth: "Oh, sweet, obilvious Kari..."
Jarukoth shakes his head in frustration. No doubt Grey was a bit stunned as well...
He turns to ask Ada about thier current situation, but sees her gripping a large .50 rifle, loading it...
Ada: "You ruin my special day...so some Tauren have to pay..."
Jarukoth is running out of options. His friend is distracted by a woman, and his wife has turned into Bridezilla. He begins to look around, nearly panicking, when his brother taps him on the shoulder...
Rob: "If it helps, I think I may be able to get a helicopter to get you and Ada to safety.
Jarukoth: "Thanks, but we aren't the only ones in danger here. What about the guests or the stability of the building? If we leave them alone, they will get seriously hurt..."
Rob: "Hmm. You're right. It still shouldn't be a problem though..."
Jarukoth: "How do you mean?"
Rob: "Well, if can get the helicopter, odds are I can bring some backup along with me. Even if you guys are having trouble, the backup will still help deal with that, at least."
Jarukoth: "...Okay. I suppose one of us can slip out without alerting anyone. Just make it quick."
Rob: "No problem. I'll be back soon..."
Rob opens a portal, and quickly escapes into it, leaving Jarukoth and the others to fend of the advancing horde. Jarukoth draws his sword as the Tauren get closer and closer, until they get just close enough to fighting range...
Jarukoth: "...ATTACK!" |

OOC: To Kirbynite: ^_~ has to be the BEST smily I have ever seen in my entire self-contained life.
"Tauren... Hmhm... Interesting, because I happen to know a Psi Warrior who's Tauren. His element type is Honor, just like mine."
Schwa seems to have recovered from his melt.
"At last, something to blast! And I don't care HOW many of them there are, either."
Schwa's hands flare up with brilliant, blue ether. He turns to Janus, next to him.
"Cool, fighting alongside my ally... Watch this. Familiar?"
Schwa holds his right arm out, and gel-like blue substance begins to extract itself from his arm... until it has formed into a softball-sized ball of blue gel in his right hand.
"Royal Ball. Exactly like Yiusi's Yiusi Ball. Remember, Kyr'Shei gave it to me. I haven't mastered it yet, but it's about time I do."
Pause.
"And yes, I am infused with Oracle blood. Not many Psi Warriors know that... Thank God too, or they'd be revering me like some Holy God or something." |

Nakase: Where's everybody going?
Krby: I think they're investigating something. *sighs* No doubt trying to do another kill that could've been avoided..
Nakase: Then, Kirby, why don't you convince them not to?
Kirby: ... That's a good idea.
Nakase: Good. I am coming with.
Kirby: Erm..
Nakase: Beating the person senseless might be the other way, you know. ^_~
Kirby: Just itching for a fight, aren't you? C'mon. |

OOC: Warcraft Reference For Teh Winz0rz!!!
Always with the crises... Grey couldn't even enjoy one single supremely happy moment of dancing with a beautiful young woman that seemed in many ways attractive to him. No sooner had he said his last statement than did the building begin trembling, and Schwa's excessively loud cry was heard. He held onto Kari for a moment, and looked over to Janus at the bar, but Janus was gone, along with Kalar and Garro.
Grey: "Wha... Damn! Not now! I was...."
He looked at Kari. God damn, she was... Bah, it figured. He never caught a break, especially. Duty called...
Janus: "Kalar, Garro, this way! NOW!"
Kalar: "Ya.... Yah, Janus... We're still... Kinda woozy..."
Garro: "Speak for yourself, lightweight! What's the situation?"
Janus, Kalar, and Garro had taken point, following Shino out of the reception hall and to Schwa's position. They had arrived just in time to see the first traces of the Tauren horde rise up over the horizon of the mountain region that Grey imagined was near the Acmlm's Board building, and stopped short by Schwa...
Janus: "Th.... THAT!"
Garro: "Holy shit!"
Those.... were some BIG creatures... |

"Schwa, calm down." Jarukoth thinks. "Just because they can sense a DiEn presence doesn't nesscessarily mean that they know it's us. Besides, as it stands, no other DiEns other than the ones here know we're married anyway."
"Just take it easy. I'm sending Shino to come get you..."
Jarukoth: "Shino, would you mind bringing Schwa back here? He's at the front of the building."
Shino: "But, Kari..."
Jarukoth: "Don't sweat it. It shouldn't take more than a minute..."
Shino: "...Okay. I'll be back soon."
Shino quickly dashes out the door of the reception hall to the front of the building, where he finds Schwa waiting, creating wisps...
Shino: "Come on, Schwa. Let's get back to the party. We're on the last dance, and if you don't..."
"Wait...you feel that?"
Shino puts his ear down on the ground. He can feel many vibrations, increasing with intensity with each passing second.
Shino: "...Byakugan!"
With his enhanced eyesight, he looks far off into the distance, and sees a most troubling sight...
Shino: "Oh...SHIT!"
...An army of seemingly hundreds of angry Tauren warriors can be seen approaching the AcmlmBoard Building. One of them points to something, and shouts to the rest of the group.
Tauren: "FOR THE HORDE AND CABRALITAS!!!"
The group of angry warriors then burst into a full out sprint at the AcmlmBoard building, the thundering hooves of the stampede creating tremors that the people inside the building would most likely feel...
Shino: "So, that's what you were doing, Jansen..."

Schwa

Schwa thinks back, "Idiot! If they sense YOU, they'll follow us! Damn this, I'm going out to set up a defense."
Schwa silently teleports outside. He can't sense any DiEns around, but to make sure, he uses a variation of one of his most sly techniques...
"Oracle Spirit Slicing Trick. Formation Epsillon." Schwa whispers, as he hurts himself 10 times to summon 10 blue Wisps. The wisps slowly circle the building and are almost invisible thanks to Formation Epsillon.
"Damn... We're dead meat. Why? Why must J and Ada choose the life of a fugitive just to get married? WHY!!!"
Schwa loses it for a moment, as his voice echoes across everywhere. DiEns will definitely have no problem finding them now.
"Shit... *sob* " Schwa has a meltdown. He falls to a kneel and weeps. "This-- was-- my-- day-off..." |

Teddylot, who was sitting on the floor right next to where Grey was, suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked up at him. He quickly shoved a pair of heavy-duty scissors back into his pocket and tried to cover up what he had so far done to the rug.
Teddylot: It's, umm, not what you think ... really. This is for my scrapbook. |

Having played swing music for the last seven years of his life, Grey knew a little bit about the style, particularly the moves. He grinned as Kari swung him onto the dance floor, and swung her around in a similar fashion, holding onto both of her hands as he duo-twirled with her, following that maneuver up with a single hand twirl that went directly into a graceful dip. As they trotted together, he nodded to her and smiled.
Grey: "Alright, then, you lead off first."
Kalar and Garro were stumbling about, just barely beginning to regain their wits as Janus returned to the bar and sighed a sigh of relief. Courage had been saved again, for the time being. He ordered a dry martini to congratulate himself, and checked out his buddy's moves.
Janus: "Well, whaddaya know... Who knew he could cut a rug?" |
