UGrey: "No, no, no, it's details. Like, who uses the most adjectives or variety in wording, things like that."

He then whispers something in Schwa's ear about thread bombings, and gets back to throwing out suggestions...

"Maybe.... "Best plot device?""

Janus: "Argh!"

He is kicked backward, and Satchel is thrown from his arms as he skids along the ground.

"This guy... He's insane..."

Janus kicked upward and called Satchel back to himself, holding it in the air, straight above his head!

"Time to turn up the heat... White Light!!!"

A series of archaic symbols shone at Janus' feet, and from them a column of bright white light rose from the ground, enveloping the warrior!

"If you can't beat me..."

The light faded, and Janus looked the same, yet somehow different. He lowered his hammer, and showed just what the difference was by doing a short hop and disappearing, reappearing right next to Odin with an obvious physical improvement. He hopped again, disappearing and reappearing repeatedly at different locations around Odin's body, finally coming to a stop on his left side, and swiping outward horizontally, speaking the whole time...

"....Then how can you expect to save the world?"

Don't you mean 7?

And Phil, control yourself. I like talking about Leg. You'll note that whenever I mention him it's usually for historical reference.

And I'll add:

8: Internet rants. They're so 1997.

9: The term "so (insert past year here)".

10: The term (insert X here where X is something pertaining to the situation that you can't seem to be bothered to describe in the proper context)

11: Overdrawn, overblown explanations.

12: http://www.urbandictionary.com

Ok ok?

UGrey: "That IS a good one. And to top it off, we could have "Most Heroic", too. It'd be like a best overall/worst overall award. Only, in terms of good and evil."

He looks around for two of the only people to have not come to the party...

"Though, the only two people I can think of who'd end up taking that one are Zerodius and Melvin..."

He sighed into his drink, snapped his fingers, and refilled it...

Posted on 03-15-05 12:25 AM, in TR3 Grey vs. Jarukoth Link
Ada's explanation of her abilities gave Red and Green some time to think, as their weapons were jerked out of their hands...

Red (thinking): 'Chemical engineering... Bullets... Most effective bullet types are made with copper, meaning she'll probably be packing copper as it is... Copper has a melting point of about 1981 degrees Fahrenheit.

.....I can do that.
'

And Green?

Green (thinking): 'Well, I'm buggered. Unless I can run fast enough to get out of that targeting range...'

Which he attempts. Green dropped down a few feet, hit a button next to his top shoelace, and zoomed off at blinding speed, in an effort to actually outrun all of the guns that Ada is firing at him.

Red: "Chemical Engineering Major!!!"

Funny name for an attack, to be sure, but it's not nearly as funny watching Red superheat himself to about 5000 degrees Fahrenheit. By radiating a centralized field of heat around himself, Red causes Ada's gunfire to be overwhelmed with enough heat to cause them to start instantly melting, and timing it just right so that they dissipate into gas a few inches from his body. A few of the closer guns are able to penetrate, however, as Red's suit gets splashed here and there with searing-hot liquid metal. Heat isn't that much of a problem for Red, but it definitely is going to sting.

Not only that, but the water around his individual island boils almost instantly, along with the rest of the arena's water. This places the entire environment in a cloud of steam that, to say the least, is going to hurt Janus and Green quite a bit if they don't keep themselves cool.

What happens to Team Jarukoth is, of course, dependent on their ability to take a good bit of heat.

Janus is caught completely off-guard by this, and collapses to the ground due to both steam-based suffocation and heavy burns. That's quite a shame, considering Jarukoth is heading straight towards him, but what are you gonna do?

Green is nowhere and everywhere at once, rushing left and right in an attempt to dodge as many bullets as he can. The speed of his movement generates enough wind resistance to keep the steam from reaching his body, while at the same time kicking up a torrent of sand behind him, affecting whatever he happens to run past at the time.

Kalar: "Whoa!"

In an effort to keep his balance, Kalar digs his steel leg into the ground, and then squats down on it, only to extend it and pump himself into the air several dozen feet. He sails over Tuxydon's head and lands behind him, his weapon's clear blade poking rapidly in a flurry of thrusts!

Janus (thinking): "Well, not much choice here."

He recognizes the extreme danger in this situation: Grey will obviously die if nothing is done. But he didn't want to do this before he had to... Maybe he could just seal it back into himself when it was done, or something like that. It happened all the time in the books and movies.

Then again, the prospect of absolute power was a little tantalizing.

But why? The real question was why... Why would he give himself the power to destroy?

Philosophy... The words of that man came into his head again...

???: "Remember, Janus. We all have a power within ourselves. It is the power of gods. It is what keeps us apart from normal people."

Janus: "But aren't we gods?"

???: "In a way, yes. But there are many definitions of "god.""

Janus: "What is god to you, then?"

???: "God is power, to me. I hold that belief to be self-evident. Who has power has the respect and admiration, nay, worship, of whomever he or she sees. That is what god is."

Janus: "Then why are there several different gods?"

???: "Anyone can be a god, if they are able to find the ability to gain power."

Janus: "What about limits? What about potential and fulfillment?"

???: "There is no limit to potential. The only limit is what exists in your mind. The strongest men and women of the world recognize that they truly have no set potential. They learn whatever they can, and embrace it all, giving themselves power."

Janus: "So then, the ability to learn is power?"

???: "You could say that. The only limit to learning is death."

Janus: "So if you can't die, you have the potential for unlimited power."

???: "However far you wish to go..."

Janus: "I see. Thank you... Axel."

Janus' eyes opened wide, and a blue light glowed from them again! He spread his arms into his crucifix position again, rose several inches off the ground, and attempted something...


Janus: "God is power. To gain power, one must gain knowledge.
Knowledge is power. To gain knowledge, one must live.
Life is power. To live, one must not be afraid of death.
Therefore, to live eternally is to be among gods!
"

His entire body became enveloped again in brilliant luminesence! The light exploded outward, turning the blood-red sky from its crimson hue to a brilliant, unnatrual blue, with the combating forces mixing to form a sheet of purple that spread over the land....

Janus: "MESSIAH!!!"

The light faded, but only such that the world was visible again, for among the grass stood a renewed warrior. Again, no physical change was apparent, but somehow Janus seemed stronger, more serene and at peace, than before. His eyes were closed, but when opened, they glowed not.

"This is just a taste of the power the gods can attain... I'm not there yet. But as long as I live, I will only get stronger. What I really need to know, is if it has a point, an end to it all. Maybe that's why such powerful beings exist... They gain power simply to seek an end to the gain. But then again... Philosophical waxing isn't going to save Grey."

Janus bent his knees slightly and energy began to form in his weapon hand, as he passed Satchel to his left side. His right hand glowed slightly, getting brighter and brighter, until...

"But this might! Fist of the Grey Dawn!!!"

As he said this, Janus rushed madly toward Odin, his hand a glowing battery of energetic power! He closed inward on Odin, and set Satchel behind him, punching forward and releasing a torrent of energy at Odin with a loud yell! The blast spread to the size of a football field, and with a final radiation of raw power, faded into the distance, and all was darkness....

Kalar: "Yeah, she's not too nice to me as it is. I swear, these mythical beings take things so seriously sometimes... I just asked where she got her dress, and suddenly there was a bright flash of light, some laughter, and the last thing I can remember is waking up without my undershirt."

He then notices the mask...

"Another mask? What's that one do? Turn you into a fairy?"

OOC: Fucking hell, man. I'm in like Flint if it's got that kind of stuff in it.

Janus: "That was too much..."

He sank to the ground, the power sealed back within him. There was no reason to use that kind of force, ever. He hated a part of himself for having that kind of fearsome force within him. On his hands and knees, Janus pounded the ground with his fist, tears streaming down his face.

"No matter what I do... I can't stop myself from hurting others..."

He kept sobbing, hating what lay within him, hating what he knew he'd have to do someday. There was no future for him, no matter how long he lived for. Time was just a constant, unwavering, unchanging, no matter what events he altered. That kind of power, no matter what it was, could not change the flow of time. It was a moment of weakness, for sure.

But then, he looked to Fenrir...


"You, please, before you go.... Tell me who you are. I've heard things from you I never should have heard, nobody should have known. It's thoughts like this that will tear a man apart. At least tell me who you are, so that I may remember your name when it all comes... If I'm still alive by then."

Janus: "B....Blue's Blizzard!!!"

In a state of half-consciousness, Janus envelops himself in his learned-ice aura, freezing the steam around him into an icy encasing, which the kunais crack with ease, reflecting off of them and into the sand.

Red's heatwave is stopped instantly by the kunai, which pin him to the wall and break his concentration. He rips free of them, blood streaming from open wounds on his limbs.

Green sees the kunai and keeps running. Speed like that causes a person to gain incredible reflexes (you'd have to, if you didn't want to liquidate yourself with a wall), and Green is no exception, anticipating and evading the flying kunai with relative ease.

As the arena cools down, the three warriors regroup and go into a huddle, with Green shocking Janus back to life for the second time today.


Red: "Jeez, Janus, you wanna keep getting killed? It really makes our lives easier."

Janus: "Maybe if YOU didn't keep on messing with the thermostat..."

Red: "Me? I just want that short bastard dead!"

Janus: "Relax, man. We'll get through this. I have an idea."

Red: "It better be good."

Janus: "I'd like to think it is. We're gonna play some baseball..."

Red stared, puzzled, at Janus for a second. He then looked at Satchel, then at Green, then at Satchel again, then at Janus, then at Green, then at Satchel, then at Janus again, and finally understood.

Red: "Oh.... Hehe, I get it..."

Janus: "Good! Ready..... Break!"

Janus clapped his hands together, and the team attack animation began!

Janus: "Team Modification!!!"

Janus jumped back a few feet and faced Team Jarukoth as Red dove for Green's feet and grabbed him by the ankles! Lifting him above his head, Red spun around quickly, holding Green the entire time, who began to scream loudly and electrify himself, only to be forced into a cannonball shape by Red! Janus patted the ground with his hammer, and Red hurled the electrified Green at Janus, who then swatted him hard and high into the air with his hammer! As Green flew out of sight, Red and Janus struck thumbs-up henshin poses in front of the camera, as a shining background flashed for a split second! The attack ended with Green dropping straight back down at Team Jarukoth, impacting the area like an electrically-powered missile, causing a massive explosion and arcs of lightning to spread around the area!

Lo and behold, Green sprang high into the air and above the chaos, mysteriously unharmed by the sheer insanity of the last attack. He landed between Red and Janus, and struck a pose of his own for the camera, with a shining green background flashing behind him for a splitsecond!


Red/Janus: "Triple Attack Technique: Home Run!!!"
