Warlock

[I]Kyle stood on the balcony of his medium-sized apartment right next to the re-built Jedi Temple... The apartment didn't have that much in the way of furnishings, and there wasn't much furniture... Having been sent half-way across the galaxy quite often, Kyle didn't really see the need to put money into filling his place with more furniture which he probably would never use... Sighing, Kyle stepped back off the balcony, walking into his living room... The transparisteel door slowly slid closed behind him, and he settled down onto a small cushion in the middle of the room he used for meditation... He slowly closed his eyes, and let the Force flow through him...[/I] [I]He awakened from his state of peace a few hours later, and slowly got up from the cushion... Rolling his shoulders, he walked over to the door of his apartment, punching a code on a small console by the door... After it had slid open, Kyle walked through, into a neat and narrow hall... He glanced around, before walking down to the left, coming to a grey steel door at the end of the hall... It opened automaticaly, revealing a small elevator with transparisteel walls, letting the occupant view Coruscant from inside... Kyle stepped forward into the small space, and waited for the elevator to reach the roof, where he could take a quick journey to the Jedi Temple with an Air Taxi...[/I]

*FINALLY gets off of couch* Never fear, Warlock is here... Finally... -------------------------------- [I]Warlock stepped over to Flash, his black trenchcoat slowly moving as if air was been pushed against it... He glanced down at the timer, then looked over at Flash...[/I] Warlock: "It is almost done." Flash: "Indeed it is brother. A new era is about to begin..." Warlock: "Heh, inde-" [I] Without warning, Warlock began to shake violently, his eyes beginning to roll back into his head... He fell to the floor, his body still shaking, garbled words coming out in stutters from his mouth... And then, it all stopped... Getting back onto his feet, Warlock brushed himself off, and looked back at the timer as if nothing had happened... And opposite him, Flash watched intrigued, and wondering to himself what had just happened...[/I]

And that's only when we shout at each other to post over AIM... -__-;; [/B][/QUOTE] Heh heh. Indeed. -------------------------- [I] Slowly, the cityship began to pick up on speed, already beginning to near Mars after only a few minutes... But alas, Warlock was still not on board... Connor and Dread stood by a large viewport showing the back of the ship, and the swarm of droids trying to pursue billions of kilometres away... [/I] [I] The droids, who had began to make a chase on the ship left the area of space where Earth was once located, only a few leaving to observe a small figure, glowing black... Warlock's body was in agony, and he was only partly awake... The atomsphere was floating around, slowly disappearing, leaving only a small amount of air left... Barely enough for Warlock to breath... A single droid, attempting to finish off Warlock, began to float after him, only narrowly dodging the sparks of black ki showering off Warlock... It began to float towards the bloody stump that was once Warlock's right arm, but quickly stopped when it noticed something... The stump was glowing, black goo spreading all over it... And with a flash of blinding white, an arm sprouted... Warlock's breathing began to become more ragged, quite a bit of his power used up, his accension beginning to fail... But with one last thought, he knew what he needed to do... Summoning all his ki, leaving only a tiny bit left in his body, he rained down a shower of ki at the remaining droids, scattering them, blowing half to smithereens... And with the field which somehow prevented teleporting gone, Warlock focused on the powers on the ship, and disappeared...[/I]

Cut the chatter Rogues. ;) Well, I signed up last time, but due to internet restrictions and other problems, I never posted.

Unlike others, he hasn't read the "expanded universe" books, so of course there are mistakes if you judge this RPG by the books. Anyway, people, let's stop talking here. The thread's purpose has already been fulfilled...

[I]Hordes off ships of all shapes and sizes travelled above the planet of Coruscant, about half of them leaving the planet and about half coming down to visit it... Amid the crowd were spacestations, satellites and various New Republic battle crusiers, all watching over the planet... [/I] [I]However, the atomsphere seemed much more tense, with many of those in the military crafts who had not been informed of the SSD's journey to Coruscant slightly spooked of it's arrival... Many had thought the Empire had risen again... [/I] [I]However, everything was still in order, just as it had always been for most of Coruscant's space-born history...[/I] [I]At the outskirts of the system appeared a sleek X-Wing, the New Republic insignia painted boldy on each side... The occupant, a Jedi by the name of "Kyle Stryker", sat back as his R6 unit began to change the ship's course so it would travel along one of the proper entry vectors... As the ship began to swing slightly to the left, a light on the console began to blink on and off, alerting Kyle to an incoming message... Pushing a button beneath the flashing light, Kyle pushed his microphone closer to his mouth...[/I] [B]Flight-Control:[/B] "This is Flight Control. Please identify yourself X-Wing." [B]Kyle:[/B] "This is New Republic X-Wing "XJ-382". Transmitting codes now." [I]Kyle waited as his R6 unit sent the code, letting it by cross-referenced with his X-Wing and New Republic records...[/I] [B]Flight-Control:[/B] "You are cleared for entrance Jedi Knight Styker." [I] With a click the message ended, and Kyle sighed as the ship began to enter Coruscant's atomsphere... He couldn't even begin to count the amount of times he'd flown down into Coruscant, and always found it annoying how there was atleast one pilot who would almost crash into him as he entered... Blinking hard for a few second, he awaited the close call, beginning to wonder if this was the Force's way of telling him something... As the cloud's began to fill out, he let the force flow through him, felling the presence of many individual's flying close to him, both human and alien alike... But as he entered the top line of traffic just above Coruscant's highest skyscrapers, he noticed that there hadn't been one close call at all... Not even anything close to it... "They must've got more strict" he thought, and dismissed any other thoughts as he concentrated on flying over to one of the Jedi Temple's ship bays... Though deep down inside, he knew something was brewing within the Force...[/I]

And buying a foriegn console system has never been the best idea.

[b]BACKGROUND/BIO:-[/b] Kyle was born on Corellia, his parent's both owner's of a local pub, known to have it's share of smugglers and bounty hunters who didn't want to be found. His early years were tough, been forced to stay in the small house built into the back of the pub so he wouldn't wander off and mix with the bad trouble that came to the bar. The few times he did sneak off into the bar, he was usually attacked by scum that wanted a bit of small time fun. However, on all occasions, on the verge of hurting little Kyle, the attackers were mysteriously thrown into a wall by nothing, or something similar... When he was ten, the bar caught fire, leaving him trapped in the house behind the bar, which had every door locked. He began to cry out for help, and unknown to him, also send out a telepathic message. One of the newly trained Jedi Knights happened to be on Corellia, and in the same district as Kyle. Hearing the message, he rushed to the bar, and was able to free Kyle. Kyle's parents however, had been killed in the blaze, and then Jedi noticing Kyle's Force powers took him to the newly formed Jedi Acadamy to be trained... Over the years he was able to harness his powers, excelling in with telekinesis, mind tricks and a lightsabre. The years past, and his powers grew, and when he reached the age of 22, he faced the trails and became a Jedi Knight... He now serves the Republic, serving the galaxy, and restoring order. Little does his know of the impending crisis... [/size]

Sorry, but this is SPAM. No need to post anything like this...

...Neil, there ain't a desert around the H.Q... IT IN THE MIDDLE OF A CITY! The nearest desert is about 100 miles away. And how could a Reploid (or robot) sweat? Hmmmm? I'll post later...

[I]Warlock watched in horror as the ship began to exit Earth's atomsphere, or what was left of it as the drones around him turned the earth into more of themselves... Quickly pulling his right arm from one of the drone's grip, he elbowed several drones, then proceeded to punch quite a few in front of him... But he already knew what his fate was... His power was already draining fast, and the only one he could overpower all the drones around him would to accend back to his highest form... Something he couldn't do... He watched as the ship continued to accend, the main thruster beginning to kick in, vaporising hundreds of drones coming after it... Suddenly, he felt his right leg ripped off, and screamed out in agony... With another snap, off came his left leg, which in turn was made into a drone... They pulled on his left arm, and even though he fought hard, it to was ripped off... As they began to pull at his right arm, he felt his ki draining away, and he willingly let his body return to normal... He was gone, and he was going to accept that fact... With another large snap, his right arm was pulled out of his socket... The drones then began to swarm at Warlock, and he began to see darkness...[/I] [B] Once again, Warlock felt a familar scene play out in front of him... Both Chaos and him were clashing, Warlock in his "Dark Zork" stage... The stands were collapsing, and Warlock was beginning to feel faint... With a flash, time spun back, and Warlock saw himself lying on the ground, battered, near death... But with a flash, black light exploded through the city, and Warlock accended... Time rewound again, and Warlock saw himself fighting Juggernaut, every one else dead except for Mystical Pan... As Juggernaut eye flashed, time flashed again... This time, he was facing off against HIM, and loosing horribly... But with a flash, Warlock saw himself accend in a flash or red... And again, time flashed back, and Warlock saw him, Zyluis and Piro fusing... With another flash, Warlock watched as he first fought Pyro... With an even quicker flash, Warlock saw himself overpowering the monster Dbzman had become... And with another flash, Warlock saw himself jumping around a room filled of small robots firing ki... And then he saw nothing... Nothing at all... [/B] [I] And back on the now diminishing earth, Warlock's hair closed eyes began to flash black...[/I] [I] Pyro glanced out the window at the swarm of billions of drones now in Earth's place... Everyone else was standing around him, each glancing out the same window or a different one, all watching the chaos...[/I] Pyro: "Think Warlock made it?" Azrael: "...No." Zylius: "I can't feel him anywhere. They must of killed him." Aestus: "And now there aren't even any Dragonballs..." [I] They all bowed their heads, paying there last respects to Warlock, when Rahia, who had just appeared, noticed a blackness appearing in the core of the drones...[/I]

[I]As Omega entered the Recovery Bay, he noticed the prone Warlock lying on a steel table, reploids circling around him, trying to fix his lower torso and legs... Omega sat down on the steel table next to Warlock's, and as a reploid hurried off to get materials for his chest, he glanced down at Warlock, wondering if he was active... His shades seemed to have been repaired, so it was hard to tell...[/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "What happened to you?" [I]Omega jerked in surprise, then looked over at Warlock, who had turned his head in Omega's direction...[/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "Well...?" [B]Omega:[/B] "Oh... A Zero-type robot was activated. It slashed me before escaping." [B]Warlock:[/B] "How dangerous is it?" [B]Omega:[/B] "Not sure. It just seems scared at the moment..." [B]Warlock:[/B] "I see..." [I] Silence followed, with the only sounds been the repair reploids searching over Warlock's specs, continuing to make his legs and lower torso...[/I]

What a coincedence... My 13th birthday was last Thursday... Anyway, just because it's your birthday doesn't mean you have to be happy. It pretty much a coming of age in a way, you've just become a teenager, and now responsibilites are coming in by the bucket full. Give it time...

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Final_Flash [/i] [B]I hope you meant Slash rather than Flash back there, James.. ^_^;; [/B][/QUOTE] Heh heh. Same here... -------------------------- [I]As Nova brought the APC over to ground zero, Warlock lay there, his eyes searching the ground around him for something...[/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "C'mon, where is it?" [I] Warlock brought his arm around behind him, searching the ground... And then, at last, his hands came upon the item he was searching for... He grabbed it, and held it by his body... His Cossack Saber...[/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "For a minute there I thought that guy had won a major victory..." [I] A few seconds later, the APC pulled up next to him, and Proteus and Max stepped out, both grabbing him and taking him into the APC... They took him to the front, and strapped him to one of the seats there... With a lurch, the APC took off once again into the air, finally going back to the H.Q... And as the APC went only, Warlock glanced out the window at the early night sky... The day had been full of victories, and full of disasters... Closing his eyes as the APC continued on his way, Warlock just hoped tomorrow would be different...[/I]

[I]Warlock was knocked out of his train of thought as he heard the pained yell of a robot, and he quickly ran over to the edge of the highway... Only to see Zero, gripped in a giant hand which seemed to have sprouted from inside Napalm... He almost thought of letting Zero be crushed by the giant hand, avenging his friend's and creator's death... Warlock watched on as Zero continued to be crushed, and slowly shook his head... He glanced down at his buster, and began to power it up...[/I] [I] Omega jumped up at the massive fist holding Zero, and slashed at it with his Titan Sabre... He growled slightly in frustration as the the sabre merely scratched the paintwork of the fist, not even damaging it... But in his fustration, he failed to notice the Napalm point of his it's giant Flame cannons at him... As his feet landed on the damaged asphalt below, he heard the large roar from above... Turning his head up, he noticed the giant fireball coming at him, and closed his eyes... [/I] [B]Proteus:[/B] "Get down!" [I] Omega quickly got onto his belly, and watched as Proteus appeared in front of him, one of his arms now morphed into a large titanium shield... The fireball crashed into the shield, and Proteus was pushed back by the tremendous force of the fireball... And just as Proteus felt his arm about to melt, the fireball erupted, sending both him and Omega flying...[/I] [I] Zero meanwhile, was struggling to get out of the giant fist, slashing his sword in a futile attempt to destroy the fist... He heard a small cracking sound, and realised his torso was beginning to fracture... [/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "HEY YOU! DROP HIM AND FIGHT SOMEONE MORE ON YOUR LEVEL!!!" [I] The head of Napalm swivelled around, it's sensors taking in Warlock's size, shape, weapons, all it could... Giving Zero one last deadly squeeze, it dropped him, letting Zero fall to the ground... It began to rumble, and with a terrifying speed rushed at Warlock... [/I] [B]Max:[/B] "Warlock, get out of it's way!" [I] And Max's remark Warlock merely smiled, bringing out his buster and pointing it at Napalm... It was now glowing, a bright red light radiating from core and spreading outwards... And just as he was about to fire at Napalm's exposed chest, he felt himself been grabbed by the fist, and watched in despair as the charged up buster shot went wide, flying up into the night sky, and exploding with a bright flash high in the air like fireworks... Warlock heard a loud crack, and realised Napalm had begun to crack his hard body armour... Realising his buster arm was free, Warlock began to charge it up again, the chest now so close a baby couldn't miss it... Now, all it was for Warlock was a race against the clock... Either he charged up his buster to full and fired, or Napalm crushed him, destroying all hope... A few seconds later he heard another crack, this time a larger one, and noticed his legs were no longer responding... Blinking, Warlock aimed for the middle of Napalm's chest, and waited a few more tenseful seconds for his buster to fully charge... But he wasn't the only one to notice that he had charged his buster... The giant Flame Cannons turning around to point at him, Warlock released the energy that had gathered up in his buster, but not before Napalm had fired both Flame Cannons at it's own fist... Warlock watched wide eyed as the fireballs raced at him, and Napalm also seemed to notice the powerful blast of energy racing at his chest... The mass of energy hit first, crumbling Napalm's chest in a blink of an eye... A second later, the fireball hit Warlock, disentergrating the fist, and throwing the now heavily damaged Warlock at Napalm... And with that, Napalm exploded... The rest, who had gathered the damaged Zero, were all huddled behind a large peice of rubble from one of the destroyed buildings as the giant explosion rocked the entire area... After the shockwave died down, the entire group got up, and looked at where Napalm had been... Everything there was now a towering inferno, rubble from the highway, buildings and Napalm itself pounding down from the sky... And it was then that the others realised the chances of Warlock surviving the explosion from ground zero...[/I] ----------------------------------- ...Someone...Get...Me...Some...Coffee...*collapses*

[I] And to Zero's astonishment, the sabre hardly did any damage to Napalm's body... "Dammit, he must have some extremely powerful armour!"... Zero landed on his feet, and then quickly jumped to the side as a fireball crashed at his feet...[/I] [I]Meanwhile, Warlock had found his way onto a neighbouring elevated highway to the giant 'Napalm', and was rushing along, Cossack Saber drawn... Jumping over a large piece of wreckage, Warlock was surprised to see several small, red reploids, all with small propellers above their heads, keeping them afloat... He suddenly felt a memory rush through his brain... These reploids looked strangely like one of Dr Wily's old mini-robots... Dismissing the thought for the time being, Warlock slashed at the small red reploids, destroying them in a burst of metal and wires... Warlock continued sprinting along the highway...[/I]

[I]Warlock now had both of his ki wrist-swords out now, and was slashing at the drones all around him as he fought his way towards the ship... Small ki "knives" began to detatch from Warlock blades as he fought, each centering in on a drone and pierceing it, causing the drones to explode in a firey manner... Slowly but surely, he caught sight of the towers which hadn't been destroyed by Dreadnaught a few days earlier, and knew he was getting closer... It was then he noticed the thrusters beneath the city had began to power... The city was about to rise up from the earth... Knowing his time had almost run out, Warlock released both ki blades from his wrists, letting them slice through mutiple drones as the flew around... Letting the red aura around him to light up again, Warlock set off at full speed at the city, one of the few doors not completely closed in his sight... Drones left, right and center began latching onto him, and he felt himself been slowed... And with a loud rumble, the city began to disengage from it's nest within the earth, up into the stars above... And Warlock found himself now stuck, hundreds of drones latching onto him, without a way to get to the ship...[/I]

Either that, or he's typed Australia instead of America... Or something like that. But anyway, I don't like the sound of what the US goverment is doing. Not at all. I don't really know much about the US goverment, or even the situation you're in, so I can't really offer any advice. But either way, good luck on whatever happens...

[B]Warlock:[/B] "Well... Shouldn't we get to the matter at hand?" [B]Cid:[/B] "Oh yes, of course. Please, take a seat." [I] Flash and Chang sat down at the two chairs in front of Cid's desk, while the others sat down on chairs around the walls of the room... As Cid quickly got some files out from below his desk, Warlock turned to Craig, who was beside him...[/I] [B]Warlock:[/B] "There's something strange about Flash and Chang... It's like they're both cold towards each other, but not quite the same..." [B]Craig:[/B] "Yeah, well, just forget about it for now. Let's just focus on the action..."

[I]Warlock was now seated by the sensor consoles, his CPU connected with the sensors of the APC... Currently, he was scanning all news broadcasts and stations to try and find the exact location of "Napalm", and what damage it was causing... After a few minutes of listening to the few news stations there were, Warlock grimly detatched himself from the sensor station, and walked over to Max...[/I] [b]Warlock:[/b] "I just listened to all the news stations, trying to get what information I could about Napalm... Seems he's on the outskirts of the city in which the H.Q. is located. Reploids and humans alike are fleeing, and everyone who's tried to stop it has been completely destroyed... We've got our work cut out for us." [b]Max:[/b] "Things aren't good for me either. My power levels are down, and my right shoulder's damaged..." [b]Warlock:[/b] "Well, when we ingage Napalm, make sure you don't fire blindy. Only shoot when you've got a clear shot." [b]Max:[/b] "Will do, sir." [i]Nodding, Warlock turned towards the front of the APC, and began to walk up to where Zero was standing...[/i] [b]Warlock:[/b] "...How much longer?" [i]Surprised, Zero spun around, coming face to face with Warlock's cold stare...[/i] [b]Zero:[/b] "About an hour... We better get ready." [i]Nodding, Warlock began to turn, but Zero placed his arm on Warlock's shoulder, making sure he couldn't leave...[/i] [b]Zero:[/b] "Please Warlock, just put our differences aside for the time being. I know how much pain I've caused for you in the past..." [b]Warlock:[/b] "You have NO idea how much pain you've caused for me!" [b]Zero:[/b] "Warlock, that was the past me. The evil me. I changed the moment I had my memory erased by Dr. Cain... And after been told of what I did by Dr. Cain, who got the info from you and Flash, I really want to make things right for you and Flash..." [b]Warlock:[/b] "...You destroyed my home, my friends, my creator, everything I ever had! I don't care if you've changed, but you're still the same Wily-Bot I saw blow up Dr. Light's lab, and battle me and Protoman... I'll never forgive, never!" [b]Zero:[/b] "Listen, if I help try and find Protoman, or whatever is left of him, will you atleast call a truce?" [i] Warlock bowed his head, and without saying anything to Zero, walked away...[/I]

[I]Meanwhile, Kami Dende's Tower was beginning to crumble, and the drones had began to notice Warlock's presence... Warlock breathing was now heavy, and he was failing to transform... "I'm going to die, and I can't even stop these things!" And then, like a recorded message, Warlock heard Connor's message... He closed his eyes, focused on Azrael's city, and-... Nothing happened... Focusing again, Warlock prepared to teleport to the city... But yet again, he wouldn't teleport there... "Dammit, the drones must be able to dampen my ability to teleport!" Grimacing, Warlock quickly powered up, and began to fight his way off the tower, and down to the ship...[/I]
