it took me about 6 revives but i beat the last gym leader. that kingdra is brutal. all six of my pokemon were weak in comparison though, my highest was 36. not nearly good enough.

[SIZE=1]Attakiru was happy to see rain , however the flames did not seem to be effected. He hadn?t come to watch this girl die. He had seen the explosive departure of the king first hand, and a magical exit like that could not be tracked with the skills he had. Attakiru was able to see a small group of people rushing for the girl as well. They were having problems navigating through the large crowd. Attakiru bulldozed through the crowd once in range he motioned with his hands a simple follow me and knocked a even more people out of the way. The priest was now the last man in the path to Hope, ?[B]what are you doing? You saw the demon yourself! Why would you save the creation of evil?[/B]? he readied his staff.. Attakiru knocked the staff away with a powerful swing then grabbed the priests neck with one large hand, [B]?I am sorry for ruining your day, however this girl is my only lead on that demon, and I wont let fire consume my chance at revenge a second time[/B].? Attakiru then tightened his grasp around a pressure point between his neck and shoulders incapacitating him. The people who had followed the path he made rushed to hope?s aid.[/SIZE]

i was always a sleep person when it came to catching things. i know paralyze works just as well... but it gave my pokemon something to do when the pokeballs were failing like crazy...

lots of people make the same mistake.... i probably would have done the same thing if i knew how to post my own thread.

even if the trainer definition is broad, how many people have taught there pokemon to fight well? i would think the number would be kind of high... the games arnt the best thing to base it on, but it seemed like most of the people want to battle with them. i dont think its a bad thing to have lots of trainers, just a bit more complicated.

sorry that took so long... too much partying, not enough posting.

[SIZE=1]Attakiru felt no comfort in taking the life of his enemy?s daughter. ?Demon spawn or not, she will not be missed by her father, so her death dose not change anything,? he thought as the angry mob of villagers led by the priest took her to a solitary confinement house. That priest was out for blood; he could tell by brutal way the priest fought the kings minions. Attakiru could only imagine what kind of atrocity was committed on this man of god in order to brew that kind of vengeance. Attakiru reminisced on the earlier battle as he walked to his room in the local inn, though a burn from the demon was making even this simple task more difficult then it should be. [/SIZE][CENTER]~~~~~~~~~~~~ [/CENTER] [SIZE=1] The sun had just reached the sky when a knock rattled his doors hinges. Attakiru sprang out of bed and quickly unsheathed the tanto he kept on him at all times. [B]?Austin! What is keeping you![/B]? the knocks continue, ?[B]we are attacking the castle in fifteen minutes! The kings not going to burn himself at the stake you know! Get up you lazy good for nuthin[/B]?? Attakiru opened the door and placed the blade inches from the villagers face. "[B]What did you say[/B]?? [B] ?AAH![/B]? the villager backed up to get away from the blade, but the narrow walkway between hotel rooms drove him to a wall and Attakiru just advanced a few steps and grabbed the villagers shirt and pressed him to the wall to stop him from fleeing (and Attakiru liked to look people in the eyes, and he didn?t have to hunch over this way) ?[B]please! don?t hurt me? I didn?t know a soldier was here! I mean?. I was just playing a game with my friend Austin! We weren't really going to betray the king? that would be crazy[/B]!? Attakiru dropped the man, ?[B]your lying, which is good because I have my own grudge against the great Dalmasca. You say an attack is being made[/B]?? ?[B]your? on our side?? the villager jumped to his feet,? yes! We attack in about ten minutes, and we could use all the help we can get sir[/B].? ?[B] Go on and find your friend, and try to get the right room as well[/B].? The villager awkwardly laughed then bolted down the hall. Attakiru had geared up and merged with the group (as much as he could; he stood two feet taller than the second tallest man) and listened to the priests speech loosely. It was a lot of talk about the evils of the king and how his wickedness was otherworldly. None of it mattered to Attakiru. Today he was going to get revenge on the king that ordered his families execution those many years back. The march begun shortly after, and it was not long till the castle was within view. The priest had been humming an incantation the entire way, and as they drew closer he seemed to glow. ?[B]The evil king shall curse his own name! we shall storm the castle and slay the monster within. Do not take pity on the men here, fight without mercy, because today you are fighting with god[/B]!? The castle gates opened wide, pouring soldiers into the field. A few of them had armor, but for the most part the kings guard was composed of a ragtag militia. Attakiru unsheathed his sword by launching it in the air with a quick flick of his thumb. The sword was only a few feet in the air so Attakiru guided it down by making an ?L? shape with his hands and guiding it down until he was close enough to catch the handle. The battle had already begun. The villagers were without well-made weapons but what they could scrape up worked just fine for killing, and the priest was doing most of the work. The staff he carried was smashing heads left and right. Attakiru was playing the role of backup, he wanted a crowd of people so that the king could not distinguish him from the villagers until it was too late. Attakiru used his speed to fight enemies across the battlefield. The size of his sword was put to good use as well. Most of his swings killed three people at once. Half of the castle guard had been cut down without a casualty, things were going well. Attakiru could now see the end of the guards. One of these men stood out. He was clad in black plate armor and he had a giant lance that appeared to be a horn from an animal, though Attakiru did not think a horn that large was possible. There was only ten lines of soldiers separating them, so Attakiru decided he would cut off a future problem. Attakiru sprinted as fast as he could until he was close to the first soldier in the line. He jammed his sword into the packed dirt. He poll vaulted strait over eight of the ten lines of soldiers and angled giant sword into a downward thrust on the ninth man. The sword pierced him and Attakiru faced the tenth warrior in the way. Attakiru let his sword remain in its most recent victims corpse and blocked an incoming slash by crushing the wrist of the soldier in front of him. He then claimed his sword and dropped low, avoiding the quicker enemies that had surrounded him. In this lower position he swept his blade in almost a circle by laying down. This attack severed their lower limbs. Attakiru sprang to his feet and now faced his opponent. The knight was surprised but not worried. He drew his lance and began humming a spiritual hymn. ?it had to be magic? Attakru thought as he dodged another fireball. Attakiru had been unable to cast spells all his life, and though many people thought his physical prowess was no less than magical, he always wished he could see what a wizard sees. This black knight was equipped with an enchanted weapon of the king, so he must have been the real force sent to stop the intruders. Placed at the back so that the troops without armor were all slain. The kings thirst for death was unquenchable. it was as if he wanted to see his men die as well as the villagers. Attakiru planned on changing that possible outcome by beating this knight. Attakiru was unable to proceed closer to the man without getting in range of a magical blast. Attakiru sprinted strait ahead. He knew that magic is only as strong as the caster and he was sure that he was stronger. The black knight shot a ball of flames at Attakiru. he slashed the ball splitting it into smoke, and emerged from the black mist. Attakiru had broken through using his will power alone. Attakiru emerged in front of the knight. A succession of three swipes had the knight dismantled. ?[B]you fight well, take my lance and use it on the back wall of the castle. A single brick is panted black? strike there[/B].? Attakiru nodded to the dying man then finished him with a stab through the heart. He then turned to see the blood soaked priest right behind him. A few soldiers were still fighting but for the most part the enemy was cleared out. The priest had heard the black knights last words and took the horned lance. Attakiru as well as the villagers who were not still fighting followed him. The group traveled to the back of the castle and found the spot with a black brick. The priest struck the spot as the knight instructed. The lance seemed to be pulled into thee brick as if it were quicksand. Once the entirety of the weapon was absorbed the wall glowed red in the shape of a doorway. An explosion shook the castle as the red outline became an actual path. The villagers piled through, led by the priest. Attakiru watched the others rush through first then entered himself following closely behind. The pathway led strait down to a dark dungeon. There was a lot of commotion. Attakiru could feel it in his bones, Dalmasca was close by. The room the villagers were filling into had a ghostly green glow. Attakiru was the last to enter the room but what he saw was not the king Dalmasca he was used to. The true face of his enemy was that of a demon. He only had a glance before the demon unleashed a burst of fire that swept the room. Attakiru focused all his strength and will in to one swing of his sword, the action blocked most of the power directed at him, but he was still burned on the shoulder and sent flying into the walkway. He would lay there motionless until the rest of the villagers joined the priest in capturing the girl. Attakiru stood up and followed the group back to the village. [/SIZE]

i have been up all night... and i am maybe half an hour away from finishing... but i drank too much wine and must rest... i will finish when i wake up.

SHHHIIIII i forgot... give me an hour!

not sure about the legendary thing.... it could go either way, but i would like to see it. but the cities being bigger and better is fine with me. i cant really see it any other way, but how many people are actual trainers?

i am almost done with my post! unfortunatly its my birthday and people want me to celibrate it or something and not write for a D&D RP..... but i will post it tonight... probably before ten.

its too bad he march to the castle and face off with the king was en ended so quickly... that could have been a cool battle... oh... and does editing a post show up as new posts? because that really is all i click on to navigate the forums... and i dont wanna miss the next post when its done.

my first visit to OB on my new laptop! i am soooo glad i was born 21 years ago!

tomorrow... good ol march 20th birthday.

well.. this is the last time i am ever gonna drink illegally...

me too... but thats just cause i waalk in when my friends are watching gifs in the bad part of 4chan... who am i kidding... theres no place other than bad parts in 4chan... thats why people go.

i love the lodgic game at the goldenrod game corner... but it has just enough luck in it to mess me up. I will go through three levels of winning using half an hour to figure all the possibilities and probabilities out, then on the fourth level i will get down to the last four boxes and no possible way of knowing which thing is were... and i am not what you would call a lucky person.

already your starting to train super pokemon? i always at least give the game a playthrough before i try and make a dream team... thogh in that dream team shinys are never a possibility... i have two... in about 4 years of playing pokemon... though i never did try the chaining up pokemon stratage... even so... if you want a shiny badly enough... why not just cheat? -OH WAIT... was this a trap to lure the poke geeks out into the open? -OH WAIT... its a thread about pokemon! we all must be crazy about the games if we are posting about it!

I also am a restraunt waiter so the poke walker thing sounded pretty cool to me, but it was not the only reason i picked it up (been hooked on these games since red version) RPG games like this are hard to come by. anyhow... i just beat falkner, so i am a little behind you guys.

[SIZE=1]His sword always felt much heavier after a battle. Attakiru finished cleaning the Ōdachi Katana, and finished by giving it a few quick scrapes on his dragon skin blade sharpener. He tossed the sword into the air and as it descended he raised the sheath so that it slipped in gently, but quickly, even with the blades great curve. Attakiru was ready to head out so he started to run to the nearby village; hopefully he could find an inn there so he could lay low for a while. Killing soldiers never attracts the right kind of attention, he thought about the battle as he set off.[/SIZE] [center][SIZE=1]************************************[/SIZE][/center] [SIZE=1][B]“Why have you asked me to meet you again commander?”[/B] Attakiru felt uncomfortable, there were armed guards outside, and he could tell they were ready to fight, what were they expecting in this peaceful city? No orders had been issued today at all, except for his mandatory meeting with the commander. This could only mean one thing: He had been compromised.[/SIZE] [SIZE=1][B]“An interesting conversation took place between a commander of Akonyu and I. He tells me of a specific cult, one that was known for a fighting style similar to your own. I am sure you’re well aware of the problems this brings up. All the questions you asked me about the empire… Who are you working for Sky…. Or should I say, Depson Attakiru."[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=1]Attakiru’s gaze turned into a penetrating beam, [B]“I have found out what I need to know already, it is time I take my leave."[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=1][B]“You’re not understanding the situation you are in soldier. You’re not going anywhere save for the front lines in the kings crusade! Seize him men!”[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=1][B]“No, it is you that is mistaken, I have killed people for saying my name, and you might have a grasp on my true intention,”[/B] he unsheathed his hidden Tanto knife from his robe,[B]”and as I said before, I know all I need from you… you are as good as dead already.”[/B][/SIZE] [SIZE=1]The two men outside had rushed inside, also four other men had been in the room adjacent to the commander’s quarters. Seven people fully geared for battle versus one man with a knife. ‘too easy,’ he thought to himself. The two men behind him rushed forward to attack. Attakiru jumped so high that he reached the low ceiling, he flipped to position himself so that he could launch off of it. With lighting fast speed he swooped down on the two attackers stabbing one in the back of the neck with his knife and one he simply pushed to the ground with his open hand. The force of impact jarred him enough that he couldn’t get up right away, however Attakiru used his momentum to roll into alignment with the wall behind the two men. He then launched himself off of that surface and formed a thrust with his tanto. He was picking up speed now and his target, the leftmost of the four guards that stepped in between him and the commander, was stabbed through the helmet. Attakiru pulled on the firmly implanted knife, which would not come loose. He used the resistance to bring his legs in and pushed off of the falling body into a fluent flank attack on the closest guard. He was just starting to turn around to face him, so it was far too late for him. Attakiru used the momentum of the recent propulsion to snap the soldier’s neck by grasping it with his freehand and swinging around the span of his body. This rotation slowed him down too much to keep moving at his desired pace so he just let go of the man’s head, now facing the wrong way, and placed his feet on the soldier’s back. He then glided to the ground on his foes back. Attakiru stepped off the man and faced the three remaining soldiers. The two guards shouted for the commander to run and charged. Attakiru sprinted forward as well. Using all his strength he blocked the soldier on the rights attempt to skewer him by hitting the tip with his tanto. He hit it with a right-handed swing so that it was deflected left and up. The parried blade flew right into his allies head. That soldiers charge was all the force needed to drive the blade deep into his skull. Attakiru then focused his strength in his unused hand. Punching the last fighting soldier's exposed face. The result of the collision was catastrophic. The man’s entire face was sunken in from the impact. The punch swept the soldier off his feet and sent him falling backwards. Attakiru then put away his knife noticing his last foe had disappeared from the area. He snapped the neck of the soldier he dazed at the start of the battle, and then he headed outside.[/SIZE] [SIZE=1]Attakiru hoped that the commander would have stayed in the room, but apparently he had darted when the two guards had distracted him. He beat the two in less than thirty seconds but the commander was already quite a distance away. Attakiru rummaged through a bush near the commanders quarters. He had placed his sword and a backpack with a few important possessions and quite a bit of money that he had saved. Attakiru equipped himself and then headed after the commander. He could easily see the trail. His footprints were quite visible since he was running in armor; however the direction he was going was straight to the military barracks. [/SIZE] [center][SIZE=1]************************************[/SIZE][/center] [SIZE=1]Attakiru arrived at the inn early in the morning. He had been running for three hours and was still tired from the battle so he checked into a small room. Only a few people paid any extra attention to him as he passed by. The town had seen many odd folk and a weapon like his was strange, but most have seen oddities far more outlandish. Once in his room, Attakiru locked his door and fell to his bed. Exausted he descended into dreams minutes later. [/SIZE]

[quote name='Stephanie'] [SIZE=1]I'm not likely to ever be that far out, but what's it called?[/SIZE][/quote] [quote name='ChibiHorsewoman'] [COLOR=#9933ff][FONT=monotype corsiva][SIZE=4]I may be living in California next year- which town and what's it called? [/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/quote] its not worth too big of a trip, and being from San Francisco i know its not the best Chinese food in the world, but its pretty dang good for the area. its called Great Wok of China [URL]http://www.bing.com/local/Details.aspx?lid=YN94x1288861&q=&qt=yp&tid=traceId&mkt=en-us&FORM=LLDP[/URL]

[quote name='chibi-master']CaNz, why are there bugs in your restaurant? [/quote] because we leave doors open and they like it inside when our California weather decides it wants to change for once. i also saw one in the backroom once but i think it was from the truck... a surprising amount of food distributors are not checked... which doesn't make sense since both the restaurants and the food centers are thoroughly examined... a truck should be easy. but hey, we re-wash all food and cook it at proper heats so its safe even if it was crawling with buggies... so if your ever in the neighborhood your welcome to stop by.

a lot of people seem to like FLOW. i am a fan as well, their music videos are hillarious... and half the time i cant tell if they are being serious or not, which is even funnier! the music actually being good is just an extra perk for me.

i know what you mean... its becoming more and more of a trend now, games seem to be getting on par with indie horror films. i remember when mortal combat was the most violent game around, and you had to type in the secret code to even see it. however I find myself playing games like gears of war and enjoying the ability to chainsaw someone in half or smash their heads with my foot. and i still remember the mortal combat code for the Genesis (ABACABB) I think most guys are naturally drawn to violent things, and games like god of war are just business. they are just making a game that appeals to a certain audience, and it is quite a success.

man... electric flyswatters are so freaken cool, if you wanna give them something insulting, make it a less awesome tool. since i am a horrible person, i was delighted in the electric mini tennis racket connected to a 9 volt battery as it not only smacked the pesky fiends, but also fried them. i miss the good old days of mindless violence... like burning ants with magnifying glasses and stepping on snails. now i cant even get myself to kill a pincer-bug that i find in my restaurant.
