[color=teal]Really, it depends on the gamer. Here's how I found it, hardest to easiest: [b]1)[/b]Twinmold [b]2)[/b]Goht [b]3)[/b]Gyorg [b]4)[/b]Odolwa That was how I found them easy/hard to beat with OniLink. Bremma, did I match your findings enough to get a question?[/color]

[color=teal][i]Xion woke up as his reactor installment finished, his mind blank as he just awakened. He shook his head, found himself in the Infirmary, and noticed his reactor was the newest model, putting out more energy while not depleting itself or endangering anyone around. Xion stood up and found himself without his armor, his longsleeve shirt draped across a chair. He looked down and found himself in black jeans, wondering who'd gone to such precautions as to leave him without defenses. He shook his head, feeling extremely paranoid, and put on his shirt. He walked towards a hook on the wall, where he found his armor in a hanging minilocker. As he opened the locker, he heard something move across his window. He grabbed his swords, ran to thwe window, and threw it open, looking down. He saw a shadow rapidly climbing down the building, into the lower levels. Xios shook his head as it disappeared from view, returning to his equipment. Thrity minutes later, Xion was discharged from the infirmary at the same time Zero, who had several cracks in his helmet and a black eye, was. Xion knew immediately that it was because of Demos. As he walked down the hall to Signas' office, Zero began to annoy him.[/i] [b]Zero:[/b]What's the matter, rookie? Couldn't handle a mission without getting hurt? [b]Xion:[/b]And what;s wrong with you, Zero? Had to go to the infirmary over a single punch? Are you that delicate? Maybe you need eight inch thick armor when you go into training. [b]Zero:[/b]Why you little.... I'm sick of this. Come on, runt, I'll take you on, here and now. [b]Xion:[/b]No, I don't think so. I have an appointment to keep. I can't waste time on arrogant bastards. [i]With that, Zero grew extremely pissed off and charged at Xion, pulling out his Z-sabre and slashing at Xion's back. Xion turned just in time to avoid losing his arm. As he dodged, he drew out his own blades, arcing them in the air, flipping his arm, and locking arms with Zero, keeping himself and Zero from killing each other. Zero threw Xion to the ground, drew up his Z-sabre, and thrust it threw Xion's arm, pinning it to the ground. Xion grabbed his sword with his free arm, struck Zero across his face, and charged his Vulcan Jab as Zero stumbled within range. As Zero hit the wall, Signas walked out of his office and saw what had transpired. He picked Zero up, writing him a pass to the infirmary for his broken nose, and pulled the sabre out of Xion's arm.[/i] [b]Signas:[/b]Kid, get into my office, now. You don't need to go to the infirmary, no vital circuits were hit. [i]Xion walked into Signas' office as his head fell. Xion knew what was coming.[/i] [b]Signas:[/b]You cause trouble on the mission, you started a brawl in the collective mess hall, and now you seriously injure one of our best Hunters. You're incorrigible, boy, and I can't have you with the Hunters anymore. I'm discharging you from Maverick Hunter Headquarters and exhiling you from this city. Gather your things and be gone by nineteen hundred hours. [i]Xion could take it no longer. Just as Signas was about to PA a new message through the base about Xion's discharging, he snapped and punched the commander in the face. he pulled back, charged up his Vulcan Jab, and gave Signas a very painful punch in the stomach. He walked out, just as Signas recovered his composure and PAed the base.[/i] [b]Signas:[/b]Attention, Hunters. Say your final goodbyes to Xion, AlarisX unit 01. Exhiled at eighteen hundred hours for unmeritorious conduct, he shall no longer have anything to do with you. [i]Xion walked into what used to be his rooms, collected his things, and walked out into the hangar thirty minutes later to grab the Alaris. He met Fenir, Warlock, and Demos, all having an argument about Signas' stupidity.[/i] [b]Xion:[/b]What are you three doing here? Came to see a failure leave his dream? [b]Fenir:[/b]No. I tracked these two down when I heard the PA and dragged them down here. Signas was loud enough to actually wake me up. I'm recovered, now, though. We came to say goodbye, man. I'm gonna miss you. [b]Xion:[/b]Hey, man. Don't worry. Signas just lost a hunter, but the world hasn't. I guess I'm the second Warlock. [b]Warlock:[/b]Don't say that, kid. I don't like the thought of you out alone in the desert, trying to survive like I did. [b]Demos:[/b]I heard you punched Signas and Zero, putting them both out of commission for a while. How'd it feel beating those bastards? [b]Xion:[/b]Felt better than I thought. See you guys later. I'll keep an eye on the city for you. I don't care what Signas says, at least I can still come back every now and then to the city to see Satina.... [i]Xion revved his engine, driving off as Demos and Warlock returned to do what they'd been doing before Fenir rushed in and grabbed them. Xion soared into the district where Satina lived...[/color][/i]

[i][color=teal]Hunter smiled as the brilliant new sunlight gleamed against his draconic scales, forgetting most of the dream. He flew into the air, bugling a wake-up call for all of Solace as he dove deftly through the sky. He saw Elsyan walk back into the Inn, smiling brilliantly to herself as she watched her lover fly off into the air. She didn't see the net the orcs had set snare him up. He couldn't bugle or roar as the net wound around his maw, and again he found himself in trouble. He was put to sleep by some kind of drug... Hunter woke up hours later, somewhere on a plain. The orcs were nowhere around, and he was still tied up. Hunter tried to get up as the birds, wolves, and other animals darted around him. He saw a mob of humans out in the distance, running towards him from Solace. As he looked on, his eyes grew thin with shock. A giant shadow was looming over them from behind....they never saw the ogre coming.[/color][/i]

Writing Today's Poem [M -- As a Precaution]
Talon replied to Heaven's Cloud's topic in Creative Works
[color=teal]Hark! Can you feel this pain? Can you see my blood? I have died, or am I born? Why does this blood stain my hands? Did I kill someone? I can't remember. Who am I? I see her body laying on the ground. Who is she? Why does she not stir? I see the wound, red and angry. Why does my heart cry out, why does it howl in pain? Did I used to feel something for this young woman? Ah! Yes! Now I remember! My love, my dearest daughter. She is dead. Why? Who killed her? My only daughter... Why did they kill my closest friend? Why my daughter? I feel my blood leaving my body....the wound in my forehead.... All is getting bleak....now I see her. She killed our daughter... My wife killed us. My daughter. Me. But why? Why? Why did she hate us so? We who loved her truly. She hated us. She hated me. I loved my daughter. Goodbye, forever. I die, now, defending my daughter. Ultimately I failed. My daughter has died....and so shall I.......[/color] -
[color=teal][i]Hunter blinked away the tears in his eyes as he looked into Elsyan's.[/i] [b]Hunter:[/b]Nothing. Just....just anxious about what you think of me now. I'm....not truly elven.... [i]He realized that Elsyan was looking at his body and face, the gleaming scales, the iridescent wings, and his fiery serpentine eyes. He was indeed a dragon-elf, but a handsome one. As he shifted into his original form, Elsyan stopped him.[/i] [b]Elsyan:[/b]No. Show me in your real form. Your natural form. [i]Hunter looked to her and sighed, stepping up onto a ledge and diving backwards from it, hearing Elsyan scream. Elsyan rushed to the edge to see if he was alright, but was greeted by the sight of a huge dragon, flapping his great wings and rising in the air to a thick platform in the trees. As he settled, Elsyan found herself on the same platform and sat nuzzled againt a hollow in his mighty breast, looking at the blazing sunset as he crooned a lullaby to the world, setting many of the inhabitants of the world into their sleep patterns as the great orbs of Lunitari and Solinari hovered above the horizon, the mighty sun setting over the opposite end of their view. Hunter barely noticed that Siren, too, had joined them on the platform and was crooning with him, resting one of her wings on his back. Hunter was at home in that moment as he, Elsyan, and Siren all drifted to sleep, Hunter the only one suffering from his chaotic dreams....[/i] [center][b][u]Hunter's Dream[/b][/center] [i]Hunter stood at a crossroads leading down two paths. At the ends of both paths lay Siren and Elsyan respectively, yet both were besieged by hordes of monsters that only Hunter's blade could kill. Hunter had to choose between one of them, yet he could not. He loved them both. He shifted to his hybrid form, flying into the air and bugling in agony as he saw both Elsyan and Siren injured by the creatures. Yet as he flew, another creature that had lurked behind him fired a ballista bolt, piercing him as though he were paper to a falling brick. He fell, and the creatures all dissipated, leaving only Siren and Elsyan to weep over his dead body....yet the creature that had killed him also remained. Takhisis, the owner of the ballista, smiled grimly as she raised her crossbow.[/i] [b]Takhisis:[/b]To end all threats to my rule! [b][size=4][i]FLASH!!!![/size] [center][/i]End Dream[/center][/u][/b] [i]Hunter continually stirred in his sleep, unable to rest, until finally he was shaken awake by his own dreams....[/i][/color]

[color=teal][i]John closed the box and put it in his pocket, blinking back the tears in his eyes annd taking Setsuna;s hand in his.[/i] [b]John:[/b]I understand. I thought it was insane, but yeah, I do love you that much. So I can wait as long as it takes. [i]As the food arrivved, John fell to his potato soup slowly, eating with less verve than he thought possible. His eyes continually drifted to Setsuna's eyes as she ate her plate of food. John smiled to himself as he thought "I'm the luckiest man in the world...[/i][/color]

[color=teal]I gotta agree with Semjaza. The voices are actually less annoying than even the goddamn swamrs of bees that plague you when you run into the tree in kakariko after you get into the second crystal dungeon. And the music, Desbreko, has been changed enought o make you wanna play the music in Stereo headphones pumped all the way up for the whole game, man. Though I only know the extent of names and the fact that you are rewarded by the Great Faerie of you earn enough rupees in Four Swords mode.[/color]

[color=teal]OOC:Just to let you know, I will finish this damned RPG if I have to do it myself. Flynn, you're leading an army of dark elves against Nilo if you haven't bothered to read your last post, i'm dead, Dani is dead, Mike is searching for something about his father, and the rest are screwing off somewhere. And Mike, to answer th question I KNOW you're gonna ask, yes, i am a persistent bugger that doesn't know when to quit. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [i]Hunter opened his eyes to the spirit realm, where the lost scroll of Antiquity was held. He grabbed the scroll, wishing against all hope, paying with all of his might, for the scroll to use its lost power and ressurect the one closest to him. His hope of avenging his father and mother dying out as he wished for his sister to live again.... His physical body vanished into the Alaris' blade, causing it to glow with a more unearthly pallor than ever before. Hunter's last words to his sister, should his wish be granted, were written on the hilt.[/i] [b]Message:[/b]My dear sister, with my death, you have become the rightful holder of Alaris. I shall live again, but merely for a scant amount of time after you thrust the blade deep into the Alterstone at the base of Nilothakir's keep. I shall live only to avenge our mother. Tell Mara that I am sorry, and also tell Ilythiirtar that he is more worthy of the title I once held than I am. I name him Prince of Ashrenia, to be King with a month of Nilothakir's demise. He may pass the burden to you, or whomever he may wish. Farewell, my dear sister. We shall meet again, but after that, my soul shall never curse our fair world again.... [i]The shimmering Alaris began to glow more brightly as the name inscribed on the hilt changed from Alaris to Serenis. If the wish was not granted and Eve was not brought back to life, then Hunter's sacrifice would be for naught....[/i][/color]

[i][color=ocean teal]Many years ago, a disaster was averted on Biologic Space Labs by Samus Aran, bounty hunter supreme, with the aid of a computer, dubbed by Samus as "Adam" in commemoration of her former Galactic Federation commanding officer. The threat of the X was averted. But now, in the year 21X0, a new threat has arisen. Galactic Fedration scouts hear whispers in sectors near the black hole that the exploding SR388 created. Whispers of dark and foreboding nature. The black hole created by the Zebesian explosion also generates eerie whispers. Only one scout heard more than a whisper and lived. "We are returning! We shall conquer! Our vengeance must be had!" is what the scout heard. Five days later, the scout died of unknown causes, the symptoms of which matched those that called for the Metroid Vaccine that was given to Samus, but there were no X in the scout's system. The metroids have been utterly annihilated aside from two individuals: Samus and her son. The genetic change in Samus upon her vaccine injection is also inherent to her son, Kitsune Aran. Now, Samus and her son have been dispatched to the black hole of SR388 to investigate the cause of the whispers and the death of the scout, with the help of Adam. That was when all the trouble really began....[/i] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Fox:[/b]Mother, we're approaching our destination. I'm getting nothing on the scanner except huge chunks of debris. No traces of any X, either. [b]Samus:[/b]That's good to know. At least the X were eradicated. I don't think that SA-X would have been as lenient to the GF as I have. [b]Adam:[/b][u][i]Life-signs detected in the black hole....Lady, turn the ship around! Flee! It's an odd creature, biomechanical in nature! It isn't the only creature![/u] The black hole twisted, churned, and foamed in its etherial element, turning bluish in hue. Out of this portal came a bird-like ship, flying straight towards Samus' ship. The two ships docked upon a silent command from the bird-like ship that Samus somehow could not override. A massive, familiar creature appeared in the docking bay of Samus' ship without warning. A Torizo, the vile and evil counterparts of the Chozo that had created Samus' Power Suit, materialized before Samus when she walked into the docking bay. It carried a small tube of DNA that writhed in its grasp, formulating into a singular organism far too familiar to Samus. Mother Brain was back with the Torizo and the Space Pirates. With one huge powerful blast, the Mother Brain fired a bolt of energy at Samus, frying her through the Power Suit. Fox withheld his scream of rage and agony as he saw his mother hit by the bolt of energy. At a silent command from Mother Brain, the Torizo disappeared, its ship and the black hole dematerializing to show that Mother Brain now held the ability to control space portals, once a mere chance in the Ether. Fox stumbled forward, previously unseen, to his dying mother's side.[/i] [b]Fox:[/b]Mother....no. NO! You can't die! Take my energy if you have to, but don't die! DON'T DIE!!!! [b]Samus:[/b]My son...please...understand. We must all die one day, even us "ultimate warriors". I am no longer needed with you around, my son. I can finally rest in peace. Your father...is Adam. I was artificially inseminated by the doctors who had cryogenically frozen his DNA....your father can care for you now. Please, my son....just...stop....the....Moth...er....Brain....... [i]With a metallic clank, Samus' head fell heavily to the ground. Upon her death, the Power Suit unhinged and detached from her body. Fox picked the suit up from the ground with his mother's body, walked into the cockpit, and flew to the Galactic Federation HQ. During Samus Aran's funeral, Fox thought he saw a human-sized birdlike figure different from the Torizo in the corner, but he decided he was seeing things....[/i] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [b]Name:[/b]Kitsune (Fox) Aran [b]Age:[/b]19 [b]Race:[/b]Human/Metroid cross (only one in existence). [b]Hair:[/b]Long black hair that falls in a braid to his waist. [b]Eyes:[/b]Crystal blue [b]Bio:[/b]The son of Samus Aran and the frozen genetic material of Adam Malkovich, Kitsune is more commonly called Fox. His life has been spent with his mother hunting bounties. He witnessed his mother's death at the hands of Mother Brain and the Torizo and has vowed to end their menace forever. He now wears an upgraded and changed version of the Power Suit. however, in the upgrading process, he lost many of the abilities. The only remaining abilities are the Charge Beam, the Varia Suit, and the Morph Ball. Now, however, Fox spends his time seeking vengeance for his mother, but also companionship aside from the Etecoons and Dachoras that have resided in his ship since before his birth. He also searches for people to aid him in the battle against the returned evil and for the remaining Power Suits, each of a different nature. [b]Appearance:[/b]The Power Suit is similar to what it used to be, but it now lacks a helmet and fits Fox much more like a suit of armor from medieval Europe. A kitana is now a part of the armor in a sheath attached to the back. The suit, no longer red and yellow, is now green and blue. The red area is now green, the yellow is now blue. The new design somehow appeared in Adam's database from an unknown source. [b]Weapons:[/b]Power Suit with Charge Beam, Morph Ball, Varia Suit, and Blazesabre. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please sign up, people. You need all of the above info, but you can also have one of the Power Suits. You just have to list its nature. Nocturnal, Fire, Ice, whatever you can think of. Just don't be invincible.[/color]

[color=teal]OOC: I guess we oughta keep this alive until ColourDeaf brings in two more people, or one more if he lets Vincent up there in. Here goes... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [i]Fox smiles gently at Jaudiar's silken touch, the wound in his throat scarring and then sealing up completely. Fox listened to her soft song and pulled out his harmonica when Jaudiar dropped his chin from her grip. She hummed softly to his skilled playing, the two melodies twining in midair to form a peaceful song. When he was done playing, Fox looked up to the stars through the stratoglass skylight.[/i] [b]Fox:[/b]As is a star in the heavens, I am but a grain of sand on the beach of the galaxy. Yet with you, I am the lord of the universe. Shall we be married tomorrow? I know a beautiful place on Earth, in a place called Italy. [i]As Fox awaited Jaudiar's answer, another of his memories came to haunt him, but he shied it away with a careless toss of his head. Tears formed in the Pheonix's eyes, glowing a phosphorescent red with his yet-burning desire and pain...[/color][/i]

[color=ocean teal][i]Xion pulled into the parking area of HQ, checking his reactor's meter. He looked distressed as he ran through the base to the underground area where the reactor repair areas were. He hastily knocked on the door to the area where the reactor installment was performed.[/i] [b]Medic #1:[/b]Who's there? [b]Xion:[/b]Xion, AlarisX unit 01, here for reactor installment or repair. It is recommended that my reactor be reinstalled to a newer, more armored version with better output. [b]Medic #2:[/b]Open up, Warlock's awake and it's Xion. Xion wouldn't worry Iota. [i]The door opened and Xion walked in, sealing the door behind him. He laid down on the table without noticing the red and black reploid sitting on the table next to his as the medics hooked him up to a temporary power source and put him into a deep sleep. As Xion slept, Warlock grabbed the video recording that Xion had been making the whole day since the takeoff of the Alpha and gave it to the medics. One of them put it into a holo machine while Xion slept, his reactor installment going without a hitch.[/i][/color]

[color=teal][i]John led Setsuna out to a nice Bennigan's restaurant and got a table, sitting down and ordering crab claws for an appetizer.[/i] [b]John:[/b]Bennigan's...home of the greatest potato soup on earth. It has the greatest Irish food on Earth. Um...Setsuna...before we order or main course.....there's some thing I want to ask you. [i]John pulled out the ring and laid it on the table, his hands shaking nervously.[/i] [b]John:[/b]Setsuna, will you marry me?[/color]
-
[color=teal]Yeah. Link splits into four different guys, but after that, four people on four GBAs go in and basically kick ***, but get their asses kicked by each other at other intervals, and I think there's something to do with the Great Faerie. NOt much else, if I recall. Then again, i'm the only person I know with a copy of Four Swords, so I can't play much.[/color]
-
[color=teal]Well, think about it, Desbreko. There are pretty much three characters (aside from the three extra Links and the faeries). Link, Zelda, and Vaati. Link and Zelda CAN'T be D&D classes, so what's left? Anyway, ask a question, Bremma.[/color]
-
[color=teal]Bremma, you got it. Link's Adventure is the one, the second one for NES. Your sword only gains power levels as you gain experience, so there is no need to collect a new blade. Bremma, ask a question.[/color]
-
[color=teal]Wrong. Link's Awakening does have a new sword. You collect [spoiler]twenty[/spoiler] secret seashells, you get the Lv. 2 sword, which has a magic beam. The big word screen even says "You got a new sword! It even has room for you to write your name!" or something to that effect. Anyhow, no, you're wrong. The game/s I'm thinking of aren't for any game boy. That is THE LAST hint![/color]
-
[color=teal]Okay, okay, too hard. The class is wind mage, and the character's name is Vaati. In D&D, the Vaati are a race of lawful, immortal wind mages. Anyhow, new question. [b]Question:[/b]What Zelda game/s contain/s no different sword apart from the one you start with? Meaning, you start with a sword, end with the same sword. No Master Sword. Tempering doesn't count either, so count Majora's Mask out![/color]
-
[color=teal]Their names are A. Bumpkin and B. Bumpkin. [b]Question:[/b]In Four Swords, what Dungeons and Dragons class is the name of a character in Four Swords mode? [b]Hint:[/b]It's a vestige class.[/color]

[color=teal][i]John walked into the room, opening the door silently. He saw Setsuna, eyes closed, listening to a headset. He sat down in a chair, realizing he was fifteen minutes early. As he sat, he realized how beautiful she was. With the small amount of make-up on, John quickly stood up and walked into her bathroom, fixing his hair and outfit nervously. He thought all the while that he looked completely stupid in his green button-up shirt, the black dress-pants, and the silk tie. He fixed his hair to make himself look a tad more casual. It now fell over his eyes. He walked back out after making sure his cologne was Old Spice, thinking he could have grabbed the wrong bottle. He sighed and walked back out, putting the ring in a box and the box in his pocket. He sat down in a chair facing the clock, but at a minute to eight, he jumped up and started for the door.[/i] [b]John:[/b]What was I thinking? I can't do this. [b]Setsuna:[/b]Can't do what? [i]John stopped, turned, and stood amazed. When he came out of the bathroom, he hadn't noticed Setsuna standing at the dresser, fixing her own appearance. John looked at her smile and almost staggered. She was so beautiful, especially with that smile.[/i] [b]John:[/b]Can't...can't stop shaking.[/color]
-
[color=teal][i]John realized he was half an hour early,so he returned to the classroom. He noticed the others in the class, wondering why they'd remained for the lesson, when he slapped his head and remembered. He and Setsuna had been the only ones to have received the Advanced scores on the A.E.E. (Academy Entrance Exam). He smiled and walked off, heading for his "date" with Setsuna, rolling the newfound ring between his fingers...[/i][/color]

[color=ocean teal][i]As Xion sped across the sands of the desert to the area where Dr. Light's lab once stood in a destroyed city block. Xion wondered why so much of the world was now desert, but he used his memory and dream to locate the bomb-shelter where his father's lab once was located after the attacks by Wily and his Robot Masters. As he walked down the stairs, he saw a switch in the wall. As he pressed it, twenty or so computers sprang to life. In the corner, a capsule began operating. Inside was an image of Dr. Light...[/i] [b]Image:[/b]My son...if this capsule is operating, it means that I died before your system was fully strained against the virus Wily created with the Zero model. James...do you remember the AlarisX armor I once told you about? If so, the you ought to know that you, of course, are the cross between humanity and robots. Well, I made a change to the armor's system. I programmed the double-blade and double-buster upgrade into it, and i made it operable only to your vital signs and biorythm. Now, my son, step in and become a powerful ally to good! [i]Xion stood, walking into the capsule. All at once, a sensation of pain, yet joy, flooded into his system. A bright field of light surrounded his body, changing it subtly. Suddenly, as the light subsided, he found his body greatly changed. His body gleamed a dark blue, his legs and arms in black sleeves with dark-blue gauntlets and boots, the boots of leather but the gauntlets of metal. Two swords, sharpened to a one-thousandth the thickness of an atom, gleamed in his hands. He felt a superb charge in his new busters. The AX-armor over his black shirt covered his torso. He looked down and noticed his reactor, though still cracked, was a new model. He jumped and found himself much lighter. He checked his boots, noticing that he now had a dash function. As he walked out to the bike, he saw a mirror and noticed that his eyes had changed to a crytal clear light-blue. He smiled, grabbed his bike, and motored off to HQ to get his reactor fully repaired before it blew up again....[/i][/color]

[size=1]Dr Cain is dead, so let's just say you're talking to... Dr Jim. And EM, as... interesting as your RPing is... It doesn't fit in with the history of MH [i]at all[/i]. Sorry.[/size] [i][color=ocean teal]Xion woke up in a capsule filled with some sort of liquid. The liquid, it seemed, was repairing him until he got a closer look at the micro-bots in the liquid. In walked Dr. Jim, carrying a cup of coffee. He looked at the capsule Xion was in, then at another one. Xion, though it gave him a hell of a headache, turned his head to see the other capsule. In it was Fenir, who Xion had to admit, looked in much better shape than Xion did. Xion looked at the readouts on his now-repaired HUD. His torso was still torn in half, his back was fully repaired, though the human tissue was severly scarred, his reactor was repaired slightly, though if it wasn't fully repaired soon, his body would be in a capsule for the next eighteen years. He went back to sleep... [b][u]Dreamscape[/b] James woke up in his bed, letting the morning sun bathe his sheets. He jumped out when his dad walked in, carrying plans for his new robots.[/i] [b]Thomas:[/b]James, look at this. What do you think I should name him? [i]James looked over the blueprints of a boy-like robot. He looked over the red helmet, the gray torso armor, and the sunglasses. He looked at the other pair of blueprints suspiciously, but cleared his throat and spoke.[/i] [b]James:[/b]Blues. We oughta name him Blues, dad. [b]Thomas:[/b]You little scamp! You read my blueprints! That was what I was planning in the first place. Well, anyway, I want you to come and see the new thing I'm working on. [i]Dr. Thomas Light led his son into the laboratory, showing the nearly completed forms of Rock, Roll, Blues, and several other large robots, one with a scissor-like thing on his head, one with a torch on his head, one that looked like a burly construction worker, one that looked a bit like a bomb, one in a weird jumpsuit, and one in an eskimo outfit. He showed James the other robot, set apart from the others, in black and red armor. Then, with an air of a man about to show his greatest achievement, he uneiled the AlarisX armor.[/i] [b]Thomas:[/b]My son, this is the peak of power in this age. Any robot equipped with this armor will be able to control two swords, the second one will be an upgrade, two busters, again, an upgrade, and will be able to move fast and with great agility. A human in this will simply feel great weights in his legs and arms. I hope one day to cross the barrier between robot and human and create an actual cybernetic organism with full human capabilities, but the strength and resiliency of a robot...[size=2]...robot....[/size][size=1]...robot....[/size]... [b]End Dreamscape[/b][/u] [i]Xion woke up again after the dream, his back and torso fully repaired. All he needed was some new armor. Xion opened the capsule, stepped out, and looked over Fenir, who'd been moved into a bed. Xion jumped into the air and checked his HUD for the time. He'd been in the capsule for three hours. His reactor was still in a slightly bad condition, but he could manage for a few hours. He gripped his sword, walked out of the infirmary, and ran full into Dr. Cain.[/i] [b]Jim:[/b]Hmm....alright. You can walk around for now, but you must be back here in four hours. I need to give you an entirely new reactor. The fluid in yours, which was mostly blood when I looked at it, has turned stagnant. You have five hours of power. Be back in four. [i]Xion strode out into the parking lot, not noticing Demos behind the bikes in the shadows. He grabbed his Alaris, revved it up, and rode out to the ruins of Dr. Thomas Light's lab...[/i] [b]Demos:[/b]Where the hell is that kid off to now?[/color]

[color=teal][i]John sat still throughout the class, listening as Ariadne simply spoke of the supplies, grinning every time he heard her mention "Mr. Wyly", which she did quite a bit. He grinned because he knew she was in love with him. He snuck his hand into Setsuna's as class ended at 7:00, and she squeezed it gently. As they walked out of the room, he walked to the main office near his father's house alone, purchasing all of his goods. He walked off the grounds of his mansion, heading for the nearest jeweler. As he walked in, he was welcomed by an old man bent over a jewel-cutter.[/i] [b]Jeweler:[/b]Ah, hello, John. How's it been? [b]John:[/b]Nothing much, Dimitri. Just going here and there, as usual. [b]Dimitri:[/b]Ah, yes, old friend. Have your parents gotten to love you for being a boy yet? [b]John:[/b]No. They still remind me every single day they can that if I had been a boy, they would have become the Grand Family of London. They're still not happy just being the King and Queen. It pisses me off, too. [b]Dimitri:[/b]I know how you feel, old friend. Anyways, what can my old bones do for you, eh, Maverick? [b]John:[/b]Well....I'm looking for a diamond ring...a bit of an... um.... [b]Dimitri:[/b]Ah, I see. So who is she, this lucky lady? [b]John:[/b]Um...well.... [b]Dimitri:[/b]Ah, it's ok. Here, this one. The symbol of eternity for a pair of sweet lovers. The perfect engagement ring. [i]Dimitri handed John a beautiful sapphire on a gold ring. The sapphire was engraved with emerald rose vines surrounding a ruby infinity symbol. John stood shocked as he held the ring.[/i] [b]John:[/b]Dimitri, I couldn't! This is your best work. I know you've been working on that ring since before I was born! [b]Dimitri:[/b]The day you were born, actually. That ring was FOR you, my friend. I finished it this afternoon, hoping you'd come in hoping to get engaged soon. It's yours, no charge. [i]John looked astounded as he took the ring, but as he walked out, he slipped one-thousand dollars into the cash register. He walked back to his mansion, checked his watch, and rushed off to his room. He was going to be late for Setsuna if he didn't hurry...[/i][/color]

[color=teal][i]John stu,bled in the class, barely in time, with a gaping hole in his side.[/i] [b]John:[/b]This is just a ***** of a first day, huh? My friggin' dad tried to kill me when I tossed all the liqour. [i]He smiled grimly, sat down next to his partner, flashed her a gentle smile, and grabbed the bandage and towel Ariadne handed him. He dressed his wound, relaxed, and enjoyed the way his wet hair dripped over his eyes, dampening his eye-brows and forehead with rain water.[/i][/color]

[color=ocean teal][i]Xion sat in the vehicle, clutching various parts of his body, mainly focusing on the front of his armor, when Demos took his shoulder.[/i] [b]Demos:[/b]Kid, you need to see a doctor, and bad. Take a look at your back. [i]Xion looked down at his back and almost vomited. His entire back was torn, shattered, or broken in various areas, but in the center, where most of the shock from the large cylinder had been focused, his core reactor was cracked and leaking blood and mechafluid. Xion pushed Demos away as he saw the mechafluid hit a spark from his damaged buster, which he'd been careless enough to drop next to his waist, and caused a small explosion and sending Xion flying, his back and, now, parts of his chest torn and bloody. He lay there, falling into unconsciousness. As he was knocked out, he caught a glimpse of his cracked HUD reading "Torso damage 100%, critical damage. Reactor shutdown imminent." and heard Demos yelling aloud.[/i] [b]Demos:[/b]****! We need a medic, fast! Hang on, kid! We need get to HQ! And somebody put the damn fire out! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Anybody have a problem with this post? If so, PM me and avoid spamming anymore. [b]Edit:[/b]Any better, Medra? And play Circle of the Moon, it kicks more *** than Advanced Wars....[/color]
