Especially if they wanted to use said sword. "Or else you'll be chopping up your own limbs! Now, get down and give me five-hundred!"

Krayzikk Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) IC: Tarnok"And there lies your biggest flaw!" Tarnok proclaimed. Instead of being deterred by the block, he used it to his advantage. In order to block the strike, Kaithas had been forced to turn the blade, using the flat side to block. But in doing so, the tip of Tarnok's knife stabbed into the wood. Using the remainder of the downward force used to bring the sword into its position, he used his knife to shove the blade to the side, too far away to be used for defense or offense in time.His other hand jabbed forward, aiming to bury his saxe knife into the Toa's gut. Not a fatal wound, but one that would force the Toa to double over in pain automatically if it hit. And considering the complete lack of a defense he currently had, it was nigh on impossible to avoid.

Light Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 OOC: for the record, that knife would have gone in half an inch at the absolute most. Oak is tough stuff.IC: I used my free hand to smack the knife away. I wasn't fast enough though, and it traced a small scratch across my stomach. Blood mixed with sap started to flow. That was interesting. I looked as if I was going to sheathe my blade, but I absorbed it, drawing my protosteel one instead, trying to ignore the pain in my stomach. No such thing as destiny.

otter Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 IC-Iulius:"Enough," came the voice, again. Strict, commanding, authoritarian. It was not hostile, but neither was it compliant. Iulius looked upon the others with guarded, hard eyes, his smile dropped as he watched the fight continue. He had leveled his quarterstaff, as well, the barest symbol of the wall that would now keep Tarnok and Uyism apart from Kaithas and the Maasi."Tarnok, there is no point to this battle. I understand your anger, but you need not throw yourself against them in such a manner. The law does not rest completely in your hands, the same as it doesn't in theirs. Battle does not help. As well, sometimes, it takes more courage to stand down than to fight back." His eyes shifted, then, looking upon Kaithas in a manner that could seem both frightening and reassuring."And you, Toa, make arguments that you do not understand," he told, his tone, as before, brooking no argument. "As Tarnok mentioned, we have both been here in the blast that destroyed the soul of our village-as well, we have been there in times when innocent Matoran were killed, the city very nearly broken apart every last time. Just as I have cautioned Tarnok, so I caution you: No matter how righteous, do not give in to your anger." Then, his face seemed to soften, nearly imperceptably, the thought of battle draining again from his limbs, as he withdrew his staff, tension seeming to be now void from the air."Now, we shall work out what shall be done. Release those within your plant-cage, and bring them over here as well, so that all parties shall be spoken to at once." profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiden Shardsbane Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 IC-Teriah:The canister had lodged itself between two rock beneath the cliff face, depositing Teriah below, in the shallow water that lapped at the mouth of the cave. The black-and-red Toa trudged resolutely along the base of the cliff, sloshing through the ocean and mud. Once, he slipped on a slick rock, but after that soggy experience, he'd been using his Matatu to move such rock from his path, and keep himself upright when he slipped. The cape that hangs from his right shoulder had almost dried, but not quite, and it still chilled him a bit through his armor. After about one bio, he found a cave entrance, and since there were no better options, entered it.The stone floor was warm, compared to the water, and he gladly stopped a few feet in the cave to take stock of his situation.All my equipment is here. That's good. And I remember who I am. Guess that means the canister ride wasn't too rough, but it was long enough to scramble my memories of where I'm from... That will need to be remedied. Now, to see where and when I am...He drew one of his twin swords, the soft glow brightening the sone cavern. Thus prepared, he ventured deeper, eager to find something... anything.

Kaiden Shardsbane Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 IC-Teriah:The cave had become a tunnel of sorts, rough-hewn out of the rock. No markings or visible signs of traffic showed, but it was definitely matron-made. Teriah kept going, deeper and deeper into the tunnel, never finding offshoots or branches, just a long, uninterrupted tunnel.Well it's here for SOME reason. It'll lead somewhere eventually.

There, sitting on the wall, that'll do fine.I reached out, and grabbed an old, unlit torch. It seemed it hadn't been used in quite a while, but I didn't mind. Ignoring the looks that Zuria and Ferron gave me, I stared at it... And stared, concentrating... Until...The wood suddenly sparked, and a fire sprang to life on it. Normal fire, the kind that most people like, bright, warm. Glancing back at Ferron and Zuria I explained, "Heat. I can control heat, so, I just increased the heat of the tip of this here, and it eventually combusted. Although, I don't exactly have any control over the fire, and that took a lot more energy then I was expecting..."Shrugging, I started down the tunnel, my torch held infront, providing a bit of light to see by. - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He nodded to himself, and slid his knives back into his belt adopting a relaxed stance once more. "You are right, Ulyism. And you, sir."His eyes had never left Kaithas, even as he spoke the his comrades. "You and your 'team' will stand down. You will release the beings you have imprisoned, and both groups will be allowed to present their side.""Any attempt to disobey, continue fighting or retreat will result in your immediate arrest.

I instead turned to Iulius. "With all due respect, I'm not the one stabbing people and punching them in the stomach. I'm the one defending myself in the closest fashion to standing down possible, until this... Matoran stabbed me." I frowned. "Everyone stand down.

I followed the tunnel for a time, before coming to the spot where I'd dropped the unconscious Toa. He wasn't there.In his place was the maskless body of an Onu-Matoran, a large hole in his chest with a shard of crystal jutting out of it. "Ouch," I said, as I looked over the body. Well Karzit. He got away, and it looks like he found himself a Kanohi too. "This is what I was afriad of. He's gone."I stepped out of the way, letting Ferron and Zuria see what had happened.

sunflower Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 IC: Krell I nodded to Ferron, and without much effort, hauled the Matoran into the air. "Now, incase you haven't noticed," I said to the semi-conscious being, my clawed hand slowly closing around his throat, "I'm not in that good of a mood, so perhaps you could help me...?" The twisted being's eyes went really wide very fast. Good, I had his attention. "Now... Who told you to deliver that package...?" "Two Toa!" he said quickly, I could feel him shaking. Guess he wasn't so tough now, eh? "Lightning and Crystal. I saw them! Gave me that package, told me not to open it!" I cursed. One of those was our Toa who just got away. The other was lying in Kuhrin's lab, dead. I threw the Matoran to the ground, my anger growing. Why! So, close.... But why! "Tie him up again, we can atleast turn him into the Guard..." I trailed off, my keen eyes scanning the ground. I thought I saw... Yes, there. I reached down, and picted up a small piece of paper. On it there was a message."One step forward, two steps back."
