What goes around, comes around
Billy, Kuja, and Black Mage walked down the hallway. Suddenly, a woman wearing very revealing clothes ran by, followed by a man swallowing a small pill. "See ya, chumps!" yelled the woman as she passed. "Try not to run into any more explosives next time!"

What the...?

Kuja stared. "So she..." he said, eyebrows narrowing as he watched Scarlet run slowly in her heels.

Black Mage started yelling. "She attacked us! Man, I'm gonna blow that chick up, even if she is hot!"

Billy put his hand in front of Black Mage, to calm him down. "Relax," he said. "I'll make sure that she thinks twice before attacking us."

Billy aimed his pistol. She's human... I can't kill her. He fired his gun, hitting Scarlett in the leg. She screamed in pain, falling to the floor.

"OK, guys? I think we should run. Right now," said Billy, looking at Scarlet's partner turn. Kuja, Black Mage and Billy ran down another hallway. Billy turned to see a large monster come from the passage that they had come from and advanced on Scarlett.

1-2
Corridor after corridor, the mage continued through the dimly lit halls. The Scan spell was invaluable, saving the mage from surprise encounters several times already. Other than the first beast, there had been nothing notable - a few bouncing pink blobs with smiling faces on them that were almost too cute to slay, (OOC: You knew I had to throw them in there! XDDD) but other than that, the mage had undergone a relatively easy trip.

But, where to now...? He had to find his teammates - the only allies he could count on in this place...

Vivi examined the bracer on his right wrist more carefully - it was of a simple design, cast from a strong metal, obviously... adamantium, perhaps? And the gem encrusted within it looked very familiar...

It was Lapis Lazuli - the same as his staff, and his amulet...

Was this all a little TOO ironic...?

Ahead of the mage was another door, beside a plaque on the wall that bore the words "SUB LEVEL 2a - ACCESS RESTRICTED".

A panel on the right side flickered green. So much for restricted access. Just to be safe, the mage chanted another Scan spell, sending the pulsating wave of energy away from him.

1 lifeform detected in the immediate vicinity.
Humanoid.
Level 1.
Immune to Wind.
Threat level Low.


Humanoid...? Another contestant!

Without even stopping to think about the reprocussions of his actions, the mage grabbed for the door hatch and gave it a tug, hoping whomever was on the other side didn't have hostile intentions. But with Scan results like that, there probably wasn't much to fear.

The door creaked open ever so slowly... and on the other side, down the hall a ways in a wide open area stood a young boy with blond hair and garbed in green robes. Clutched loosely in his hands was an oaken staff of some sort. He looked a lot like a young magician... just like Vivi, even.

The bracer around the mage's arm gave off a gleam. Was this one of his teammates...?

The mage slowly approached the robed figure. "Uh... hi?"

And we'll just assume after using a Cure spell to R-Vote Ivan, they become great friends. ^.^

Re: What goes around, comes around
"Hey, what's behind the door?" Gilder called after Scarlett, but didn't get a reply. He considered calling again, but the sight of her running down the corridor in that dress and those shoes was just too much of a pleasure to spoil. Hoo, lady. She was interested, he could tell that, and who knew how things could go later? Gilder made a silent prayer to the dragon man that the next round would involve a good tropical beach, plenty of sun and a chance to know her much better.

Still, it didn't take airship science to figure out that it was probably best to leave that door alone for the time being. Gilder put his coat back on - still touched with her scent, appealing as she herself was - and headed after her, but he lost sight of his teammate in the mazelike corridors and ended up in a different place entirely.

The next few things happened so quickly, Gilder wasn't able to piece together the events until later on as they were lost in a blur at the time. Some people has attacked Scarlett, she'd shouted at him that she could take care of herself despite the leg injury, and that he was to chase down the attackers. He'd done so quiet willingly, although he kept worrying about his partner's ability to handle the situation with the alien.

"Hoy, Willy, mind scouting ahead for me?" he asked the parrot, who squarked at him and flew off into the distance. Not that Gilder understood exactly what the bird had to say, but over the years they'd worked out a fairly simple danger code - 'Danger ahead' or 'All clear' or 'Dead end' - that kind of thing with a different call for each one. Hopefully Willy would be able to find the trio and give him advance warning.

Damn those guys. And on top of that, we still have to find our third teammate. Scarlett's looking for him or her, but how am I supposed to recognise that person anyway? There's no guarantee we'll even be willing to work on the same side, after all -

A loud whistle cut the air, and Gilder shook off all thoughts and took to the chase. That whistle meant there were enemies very close ahead, and his boots squealed on the floor as he slid to a stop with his pistol aiming roughly down the intersecting corridor. The three figures stood there - a small man in blue robes and a bizarre pointed hat, an androgynous man/woman with silver hair and a young boy in blue robes. All of them were looking his way with mixed expressions of surprise, confidence and hatred. And withing a split second of silent agreement, the blue-robed one and the androgynous one both looked his way and raised their arms into the air.

"Ah, hell, magic users!" Gilder cried as he sprang for cover, waiting for the inevitable barrage of fire or ice or whatever these people used. But nothing came, and when he looked out from his cover he saw that they were both shouting at him in surprise. Belatedly, he remembered the silence attack that Scarlett's bombs has inflicted on them. The third, the young boy, was pointing two revolver handguns in his direction but didn't seem inclined to use them unless he really had to.

Nice. Suppose it isn't fair to injure them if they haven't hurt me, although that'll probably change later.

Slamming the silver moonstone cartridge into the pistol and twisting the barrel to wide-field mode, Gilder rolled out from behind cover and pulled hard on the trigger while clenching his eyes shut. The silvery light burst from the gun's barrel in a blast that engulfed everything in the area, and when Gilder opened his eyes again he saw that the others were all holding their hands over theirs and staggering about.

"And that's for attacking a lady, fellas!" Gilder cried in mocking triumph as he raced away from them before they could retaliate, Willy following in his wake - he was used to the blinding attack, which was why he wore those miniature pilot's goggles over his head. He could probably have been harder on them, but the momentary blindness and dizziness was enough to deal with and he needed to get back to Scarlett in case she needed his help.

---

A-Votes to Black Mage, Kuja and Billy. Leg Shot attack to Billy - I know the attack didn't affect his legs, but since it inflicts the Paralyse status it could mean his dizziness from the light attack.

Minor edits, since I just realised that Gilder knew they'd attacked her after all.

Eat shrapnil, bastard!
"Augh, god, dammit, bow-collared bastard!" she continuously spat,, in the most unladylike manner one could picture her in. "And damn you to hell, dragonboy!"

She pulled herself up against the wall, fumbling for the last of her SmartChicks and cursing. "Well, at least I know who's out for the count this r...ound..."

She looked up into the eyes of the Alien she'd accidentally released.

And screamed bloody murder.

Re: What goes around, comes around
Ward's knee howled as a bullet torn into his leg. He dropped onto his hands, braced himself, and managed to stand long enough to survey the area.

"Damnit..."

Ward spotted his attacker....there. Surprising himself, he ignored his damaged knee, rushed forward catching the gunmen by the neck with his right arm. Ward hoisted the man upwards, clasping his hip with his other hand, whirled, and smashed the gunman against the metallic wall to his immediate right. Ward held him there, pressing him against the hard steel.

The man let out a faint groan, slumped into a seated position and passed out.

"Serves you right."

Ward retrieved his harpoon, tended to his knee, and despite his slight limp, continued his search for allies down a largen empty hallway.

Act I, Issac part II
There doesn't seem to be anything outstanding about this place, Issac thought as he hewed through a tentacled monster with a diagonal slash. A lot of what I think...are scholars and monsters killing them. This is pretty gruesome. And what's with that lightning? I've never seen it in green before.

As he cleaned his Gaia Sword of the slain creature's entrails with a lab coat he picked from the floor, he took note of his surroundings. This particular room was rather simple--there was a small table, a few chairs, and some cabinets in the back. How all these items could just be forged from steel boggled the young Vale swordsman. Obviously, whoever owned this place must be--or must have been rather rich. There was also another door, its windows sporting a long smear of blue liquid that smelled rather odd.

Moving up to that door, Issac turned the handle and flung it open with his left hand, taking a defensive stance with his right. His precaution proved helpful, since a small clawed monster flung itself at him as soon as the door was opened.

Cutting Edge...

Issac's sword flashed but once, and the room was alight with an intense flash of blue as his sword flickered. The sound of two halves of a dead monster smacking against a wall followed.

Proceeding with his sword still covered in blue blood, Issac moved cautiously down the next hall. He noticed a small body next to him. It seemed like another monster, but it looked decidedly more suited for a less violent purpose, and it's body seemingly possessed no immediate natural threats. The youth bent over to examine it, and found that it had been shot on the heel.

It also had a bracelet like his.

"Wha? This creature is a contestant?"

Removing the bullet, Issac elicited a cry from the strange green lizard-like monster. He bade it to hold still, and focused his Psyenergy talents on closing the wound.

Potent Cure, right? It's been a while since I took the healer's role... since Mia was with me and the gang.

A strange glow suffused him as his Psyenergy gently healed the abcess. It was like he had healed himself.

"Hmm... maybe you're supposed to be my partner?"

"Yoshi!"

The green creature immediately hopped to its feet, completely restored. Aside from having some rounded ridges, it also had what looked like a saddle. Despite having a near-harmless form, it looked rather strong in the lower torso.

"YooSHI!"

A beast of burden? It seems to want something from me...

The creature outstretched its bracelet. Issac mimicked the gesture, and touched their bracelets. A feeling of understanding swept through him as he regarded his new friend... one of his teammates. Whatever skills this uber-lizard possessed, he'd work with it to the best of his ability if he wanted to get back home... and back to the battle he left off.

"Yoshi is all you can say, eh? That's fine by me; I don't talk much anyway. My name's Issac. Let's work together, okay Yoshi?"

"Yoshi!"

The two new partners nodded to each other, and moved further down the hall, with Yoshi covering Issac's back. A small explosion echoed in the back of the complex, but neither contestant paid it any heed.

Act 1, Scene 5 - "Hat"
"Uh, hi?"

Ivan whirled, half-expecting another monster - and raised an eyebrow. "Hell-o? You're different?" (What am I talking about? I just blasted a talking squirrel..)

The small figure wandered towards him, his red robes almost covering the gleam from beneath his arm - matching the one emanating from Ivan's left arm. Something clicked, and Ivan leant down to shake the little guy's hand. "Hi! You must be one of my team-mates - my name's Ivan."

Great. I'm teamed with a walking hat.

The 'walking hat' grasped Ivan's hand tentatively and gave it a hesitant shake. "Uh.. I'm Vivi. I guess we're sposed to work together?"

"Yep, looks like it. What's with the outfit?"

"I'm a Red Mage. It's what we wear."

"Red mage - is that.. fire? Are you a Mars adept?"

"No, no. I can do black and white magic. That's attack and curative spells. And a little wind magic, too..." he added, almost as an afterthought.

"Wind! No kidding.." Ivan grinned. "I'm a Jupiter Adept. I'm trained in wind magic too."

Use it.

Without thinking, Ivan reached into the mage's mind and read his thoughts - thoughts of tournaments before - a silver-haired warrior with an Axe, a tall man with pointed ears and an imposing figure.. - and Ivan pulled himself out.

No! I told myself I'd stop using that power, it's too invasive!

Still... what he'd seen was interesting. Something he'd have to think about it.

...after they killed the two creatures bearing down on them, of course. He threw the Red Mage a healing herb and turned to face off against them.

"Let's see what you've got, Vivi.."

Late, as usual...
Darkken: After reading the description of your character, it became apparent that your character is far more like a Rogue or a Warrior than an measly Adept, so being the almighty and powerful Host that I am, I changed your class to something more fitting. This should give your team some more variety.

Mintaka: We actually never agreed on anything, so I stuck with my original ruling of Lise being a Warrior. Remember, Adepts are only supposed to be people with no specializations. If you have one major specialties and a few minor abilities from other disciplines, that doesn't make you an Adept. Adepts are characters like Laguna Loire and Conker, who don't specialize in anything, but are about equal in skill at all their various abilities.

Sylphid: Perhaps you should actually say who your R-Vote is on. I mean, for all I know, Vivi could have gotten something in his eye and actually used an R-Vote on, say, Bowser.

Act One, Part Two: Dirty Little Secrets

Sergeant Wolfgang looked across the soldiers in his command. Some had the look of seasoned veterans, while some seemed to be rookies, fresh out of special operations training. It didn’t matter to Wolfgang, though; in his eyes, they were all maggots.

“Listen up, you dirtbags!” he yelled over the roar of the helicopter’s motor. “Eight hours ago, an extraterrestrial threat descended upon Calandyne Research Facility. It is well-armed, and highly vicious. The threat has already spread throughout the complex, and will soon encroach the outer barrier. We must not let them escape! You are to neutralize any and all threats on visual contact.”

“Sir!”

“What is it, Private?”

“Sir! What are we supposed to do should we come across civilians, sir?”

A thin smile crossed over Wolfgang’s lips. Well, those bastards at the Octagon certainly are sadistic… No skin off my back, though. “We have received reports that some of the aliens are capable of taking over human bodies, using them as hosts for their own gain. We do not know the extent of these capabilities, and therefore, we are taking no chances. All civilians are to be considered threats, and I just told you what to do with threats!” The helicopter shook as it touched down on a barren field. “Maintain radio contact at all times! You have your orders! Move out!”

One by one, the soldiers streamed out of the helicopter, joining the ones that had already arrived. By the time the fifteen helicopters had emptied, 147 well-armed, well-trained soldiers were already making their way into the complex, intent on eliminating any and all alien threats.

Unfortunately for the competitors, they counted as an alien threat.

---

Alright, as if your fellow competitors and the alien invaders weren't enough of a threat, now you must deal with a heavily-armed military force as well. Things are not looking up... However, if you're prepared, you may be able to take advantage of this...

Mini-Game: Three-Sided Conflict
If one knows what threats they'll be dealing with when they go around a corner, they can be better prepared to deal with them. Therefore, you may choose to select three locations from this map. (Not that the Octagon has systematically removed all traces of Calandyne from all maps, so this satellite image appears to be natural terrain.) For each location, say whether you expect to find Scientists, Aliens, or the Military. Should your guess prove to be correct, you will be rewarded, but should you guess poorly...

- Scientists, if anticipated, carry medical supplies that will give you two points of healing. However, if you're expecting someone else, you may attack the scientists by accident ( -5 experience).
- Aliens pose a formidible threat, but careful planning can result in an easy victory ( +5 experience). Should they catch you by suprise, their attacks can cause various ailments in humans ( two less A-Votes during this round).
- Military forces carry the latest in modern weaponry, which you could aquire should you defeat them ( two additional A-Votes during the next round). Fail to beat them, though, and you'll find yourself hurting. ( two points of damage).

Let's get ready to rumble!
Alright, time to move out to either B2, G7, and N10 for Aliens. Time for a little Alien Slaughter.

The Samurai and the Squirrel moved through the hallways, slaughtering any aliens in their paths. The finally reached what looked like a lobby, containing a glass ceiling.

"Sunlight. Finally!" exclaimed Conker.
"Being out in the open is not the wisest of choices. It'll make us easier targets." Yamazaki replied, eying the area carefully.
"Bah! What'll happen? We got swords, we got guns, we got no problems, right? I mean WHO in their right mind can stop us. I mean sheesh, It'll take a whole freaking ARMY to stop us!" And with that word, several marines broke through the glass, rappeling down from an Osprey. Machine gun fire filled the room, tearing apart the floor.
"Crap! That is a whole army! Look there's more coming from the outside!" A fully loaded APC delivered from a CH-47 (Chinook) crashed through the main door. By the time the APC came through, both Conker and Yamazaki were gone.
"Well this is great! First we had to deal with aliens, then contestants, and now an entire marine detachment!" Conker panted while resting against a corner wall.

"We'll retreat for now." said Yamazaki with wry smile. "Arm your Katana, they'll be piling in here soon." Conker replied with a smile.

Re: Late, as usual...
Well, personally, I would find Warrior to be much more approriate than Rogue. Yamazaki is someone who, though nasty, manipulative and potentially treacherous, prefers to fight fair and square when he does so. Hiding in the shadows and throwing poisonous daggers is not his style at all. He may be a bad, nasty samurai, but he's still a samurai, not a ninja.

The reason why I chose Adept was because besides being an expert swordsman, Yamazaki is also a mechanical genius who developed mechas and a powerful magician who could do things like summoning evil creatures. So, though he's not a character without specializiations, he is a character with multiple different major specializations.

Well... it's your choise, but I don't really agree with Yamazaki being a Rogue.

Re: Late, as usual...
Falco opened his eyes. His head was swimming, and he'd obviously been knocked unconcious. The other man was nowhere in sight. "You'd better watch yourself if you ever run into me again buddy!" Falco yelled down the hallway.

Turning back and running down a corner, the avian nearly ran right into the middle of a battle. "And that's for attacking a lady, fellas!" a man called out while firing shots at a rather odd looking group of characters. He didn't stick around for long, though, and was immediately off down the hall.

The three contestants didn't look happy, and upon seeing Falco prepared for another battle. One raised his gun while the other two began chanting.

"Hey, easy fellas!" Falco yelled out, holding his arms up, "I'm not about to take on all three of you by myself. Not while I'm on foot anyway." With that he pulled out a couple sets of bandages and through them at the team.

"Why are you helping us?" the gunman asked.

"I'm just looking out for my own feathers. Don't shoot me in the back as I'm leaving, alright," Falco demanded as he began backing away.

"Thanks for your help stranger. We won't forget this," the gunman said.

"Hey, when I find my team members, I won't hesitate to take you all on. You'd better watch your backs," with that last threat, the pilot took off running down the hall.

Re: Late, as usual...
He sounds similar to Citan Uzuki, in my opinion, with the several levels of expertise thing. If Krizak doesn't allow him to be an adept I'd say he would be a warrior like Citan is, but certainly not a rogue. I half-suspect he did it because otherwise he wouldn't have any rogues at all.

Lagune Loire: 1-3
**************
Laguna Loire: 1-3
**************


Laguna leapt through the opening slice of doorway, brandishing his machine gun and making his best "I'm gonna kill some monsters!" face. What he saw on the other side stopped him dead. He faced another hallway running perpendicular to the corridor he had just exited. It was filled with the dead, the dying, and the gleefully killing/eating/making-blood-pies. With a moue of disgust Laguna opened up with his machine gun, sending little tasty bits of monster splattering along the walls.

One particularly disgusting specimen approached him from the side and Laguna turned to face it. It had a single glowing red eye in the middle of its head and a tentacular body that forbore description.

"What are you, a reject from a bad B-movie?" Laguna queried as he opened fire. The creature dissolved into a juicy pile of little pieces and Laguna performed a victory dance on the remains, just to ensure that it was REALLY TRULY DEAD. He came down with both booted feet in unison and screamed "HA! Take that you skanky piece of monster butt!"

Amusement faded as Laguna surveyed the damage in his immediate vicinity.

Damn, this place is scary. I'll be surprised if anybody comes out alive... I might be joining you sooner than I anticipated, Raine.

Laguna sighed and decided to keep going to the left. He didn't need no stinkin' map! He shook one foot and then the other, trying to remove the remains that clung like glue to his boots, but had little success. He headed down the hallway performing an odd hopping kind of skip as he continued trying to get rid of the monster detritus. He started humming as he made his way down the corridor.

You put your right foot in,
You put your right foot out,
You put your right foot in
And you shake it all about.
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you turn yourself around,
That's what it's all about!


Laguna turned a smooth circle on one heel and complete the 360 with the tilt of an imaginary hat and a shouted "Ha!" He looked up.

And met two pairs of amazed and doubtful eyes.

"Um." Laguna said wittily, trying to ignore the sudden pain in his right calf. Silence fell in the hallway, broken only by the bloody screams of victims.

Shit, how do I get myself into these situations? Kiros would've stopped me before it got this far, or Ward would've grabbed me and held me down. Well, nothing to do but brazen it out.

"Hi there!" he said brightly, giving them Presidential smile #14.2, "My name's Laguna Loire and I'm looking for my teammates."

"Yoshi?" queried the green lizard thingie.

Laguna gazed down at the creature and agreed, "Yoshi." He extended his hand in greeting to the other person in the hallway and gasped as the bracelet around his arm flared blue. "MATCH" it said, and then faded away.

"Heyyy!" Laguna said, pleased with this turn of events. "What's up, my man? Any clue of where we are?"

OW OW OW OW OW OW! MAN, THAT STINGS!
Billy rubbed his eyes. "Wow. That was one bright flash." He stood up and pulled Kuja to his feet. Their attacker was nowhere in sight. A sudden, sharp pain shot through Billy's back, and he kneeled on the ground.

"Are you OK?" asked Kuja in mild interest.

"Fine, fine," replied Billy. Wincing at the pain, he looked around for Black Mage. He was on the ground, eyes wide open.

He looked dead.

"I likes a spot of honey in me mornin' tea," he mumbled, clearly dazed. "An' don't skimp on the fairy dust."

Billy grabbed his arm and pulled Black Mage up sharply. He sort of wobbled around, slumping on a wall. Bracing himself, Black Mage took a step forward, falling flat on his face.

Kuja sighed.

"Well, looks like that man with the parrot left. I think that we're alone," said Billy. "And I thought he looked nice..."

"Forget him," snapped Kuja. "We've got bigger problems now." He pointed out one of the many windows at what was going on outside. Many armed men were running into the complex. "Maybe they're here to help us, maybe they're not. I think that we should stay out of the way, though."

"But I want to blow them up!" whined Black Mage, getting to his feet. "Come on, let's get them!"

Ignoring Black Mage, Billy ran to the window and stared out of it. The men had entered, and had encountered a tournament-goer. Billy watched, horrified, as they opened fire on him.

"I think we'd better stay away from them."

That attack wasn't on anyone specific. Just so you know.

Minigame, eh? Let's see...

Aliens on N6
Scientists on C9
Military on L4

4 A's
4 R's
20 SP's

EDIT: Oh... Falco helped us. Then this takes place before Falco comes in and gives us a hand.

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Sorry for being late people. Had a lot of stuff going on today...but now I'm here so let me get Bowser to meet up with his team!
--------------------------------

"Why do I always find myself trapped in lockers?" Bowser mumbled as he fidgeted inside the cold steel. "How can I explain this to my team mates? That I've been trapped in here since I ran from those aliens? They won't want to be on my team if they knew what a coward I was...*sniff*..."

"Hey, I think I hear somethin over here Kamikaze..." came the voice of what sounded like a child with a lisp.

"I shall forget your impudent remarks for the moment squirrel. Continue your investigation." came the stern reply from another man.

"Oh crap, they are coming over here! What do I do?" Bowser thought to himself.

Conker pulled out a tricorder (Star Trek style!) from behind his back and scanned the locker. "Aye captain, there be life forms in here!" The squirrel knocked on the door to the locker. "Come out, come out, Mr. Teammate. We gotta get out of here before those aliens come back!"

Bowser peeked through the slits in the door and saw a wide-eyed squirrel staring back at him. Careful Bowser, remember, cute and cuddly creatures are not always what they appear to be...time to put on your game face!

Bowser swung the door open, hitting Conker on the head and sending him to the floor. "I AM BOWSER, KING OF THE KOOPAS! YOU ARE BOTH MY SERVANTS FROM THIS POINT FORWARD!" Oh yeah, they are scared...

The man and the squirrel stared at the overgrown turtle. Their fears were confirmed when their bracelets came back with a positive match...he was the third teammate.
--------------------------------

OK, my team can feel free to use Bowser in their posts. Have fun with him!


"Fungah, foiled again..."
