OOC: Just to let you guys know this was happening the second story inside the building.IC: (Telric + Valria)Another crossbow bolt, barely missed Telric's neck as he swung out of its path and still towards Agni. Valria saw barrage of fireballs heading towards their position, her eyes widening as she yelled to Agni and ducked behind a wall out of the direct line of fire. She heard...Mef, where had he been all this time?"Get down!" She yelled. It might not have occurred to her that Agni was a user of fire, a Toa of Fire that is. So she did not know hoOOC: Hey, this guy is going in alive! Well as far Agni and Valria seem to want. That whole "we shouldn't kill unless absolutely necessary" seems to be their moral standing on the issue. I also find it funny how I derived Valria from Valarie, dropping the e and placing the ri before the a. Valarie (alternate spelling of Valerie) means "strong, healthy" and Valria isn't the complete picture of health right now, she's still sort of a weak fighter.

[Mef Man]

OOC: Yeah, kind of odd, TM. And, last post for now.

IC(Mef)

"Get down!" That voice. It was Valria's. She was still in one piece (atleast it sounded as if she were in one piece). That was always a good sign. The Toa of Earth flies through the now broken window that his arrow had ruined; landing beside Valria. He sends a shower of earth toward the eyes of Telric before loading in another crossbow bolt.If Mef was in a better mood, he would've made a sarcastic quip of some sort, but seeing Agni and Valria being attacked by Mr. Lightning man was rubbing him the wrong way."Stop fighting. Now!" Mef yells before aiming for a second shot with his crossbow.OOC: I'll have him head to the slave quarters in a sec; especially if Valria tells him to. -Mef Man

[Snelly]

OOC: I edited my previous post, cause of the second story building and all.IC: Frieza - Second Story of a Building -Frieza stopped his attack as he heard Mef shout, if he was gonna pretend to be a good guy, he figured he'd better listen. He had a large fireball ready...just in case...he really hoped he'd be able to use it.

OOC: Barük and Ketan from Le-Wahi.IC: Barük watched boredly as his companion forged a path through the marshy overgrowth, himself lazily gliding a foot or so above the ground. "You keep avoiding my question," he said, effortlessly snapping a low-hanging branch off a tree. "What exactly are we doing here?"OOC: Thought we were here already. Retcon.

OOC: Sorry for the late post. Life stuff/mixups and whatnot. IC - Kuyre - Second Story; BuildingKuyre had been struggling to get up from the first story. An untimely fall had reopened a wound in his leg he had wished was healing properly.Even as he finally came to the second floor, he spotted a small skirmish occuring. He raised an arrow and aimed for the upper thigh. However, the fight was over before it started, really."Hello, friends. And Mef."He nodded to the company, a smile on his face. They were finally here. All would be revealed. All would be repaid.

[Mef Man]

IC(Mef)

Mef tried not be to offended by the being's comment; instead focusing his attention on the enemy then saying something back. Arrow loaded, the Toa aims the crossbow at the other thigh; hoping to wound Telric.OOC: Waiting for VF before I get too carried away.-Mef Man

[Vezok's Friend]

IC:As soon as Telric raised his Rapier again, Agni teleported a few feet to the side, the strike missing once again. As soon as he regained a sure footing, he noticed that they suddenly had company. And happily, the Toa of fire recognized them as Kuyre and Mef, of all the unexpected people. There was somebody else with them, a fellow fire-user as it seemed, but it was hardly the time for long introduction. "Good to see you." he greeted them shortly.Suddenly Telric was surrounded by five fighters instead of two. The Toa of fire took a defensive stance once more. He contemplated saying something. Something like 'It's over! Drop your weapon!' or 'You are under arrest.'But more often than not that was just the time for a villainesque comeback. And those were always bad. So Agni continued to glare at Telric, hoping for once Valria's former slavemaster would do the smart thing.

[Hanako Herupa]

IC: (Telric + Valria)Telric howled in pain as the arrow pierced one thigh just as another crossbow bolt struck his other thigh. He crumpled to his knees, dropping his rapier and wrenching out both bloody projectiles, tossing them to the side. He looked up to Agni and Valria, to Mef and Kuyre. He was surrounded, beaten, how embarrassing."Fine...you win." He grumbled, remaining on his knees, his hands behind his back. Though it couldn't really be seen by anyone. He was charging his hands, when they tried to grab him, they'd be in for a shock. Yes, there was at least a chance to escape, maybe even rally his-Kerack!As soon as Telric had given up, Valria upped the gravity when she went to make a punch increasing the weight behind by quite a lot, the resulting concussion knocked Telric out and sent him sprawling across the floor. The cruel slavemaster went out not with a bang, not with a whimper, but a thud."That...that felt good-ouch!" Valria said. Apparently she had sprained her wrist, striking Telric like that and was now nursing it. The pain made her winch, actually she was lucky that she didn't break it, given her physical state."There-there's just one more order of business...ow....the slave pens." Valria gasped through the pain, she wasn't going to be able to use her right hand, at least for a short while.Meanwhile the other being, the Toa that had thrown quite a few fireballs was now surrounded by a few dozen, about three quarters of them matoran, and the other quarter split between Vortixx and Skakdi.OOC: Alright Snelly, if you want your guy to get some more fighting in, he's got some guys to fight. Meanwhile the rest of us I guess are heading to the slave pens.

[Mef Man]

IC(Mef)

"Sorry...about everything," he says simply to the others. The Toa of Earth was ashamed for leaving, but he was glad to be back.Turning to Valria, he gently places a hand on her arm. "Can you use your free arm to fight?" he asks her, concerned. Now was not the time to baby the female, but if one of her arms were in an injured state there wouldn't be much she could do.-Mef Man

[Snelly]

OOC: Oooh....NPCs to epicly slaughter...actually I need to get Frieza back to Ga-Wahi for Mark Bearer stuff pretty soon anyway, so after an epic slaughter....I mean fight, he's gonna hit the road. IC: Frieza - Second Story of a Building -Frieza looked at the mob of Matoran, Skakdi, and Vortixx. "Well well, if it isn't the peanut gallery. Let's play a game of catch." Frieza's mark flared as he shot two larger fireballs, one at his left, and the other at this right. The mob was forced to scatter to avoid being hit. A Vortixx lunged at Frieza with a large knife ready to stab him in the gut. Unfortunately for the Vortixx, Frieza's mark was being fed plenty of sadism, mostly from Frieza himself. Frieza quickly knocked the knife out of the Vortixx's hand with his scythe, and then grabbed the Vortixx by the throat with his free hand and overpowered him with his mark given strenght, pushing him to his knees on the floor. Frieza then super-heated his scythe, and slowly began to push the sharp end into the Vortixx's throat, who screamed in agony. The mob looked quite angry now, and seemed ready to kill Frieza. OOC: If you want to control the NPCs The Mask go ahead, it will make the fight a little more interesting, you don't have to, but you can if you wish.

[Vezok's Friend]

IC:Agni sighed. The whole thing was going better than he expected. "Nice punch." he told Valria. He smiled at her, quite proud of his friend and companion. She had not gone down the road they'd both feared when she had the chance. Agni quickly and methodically searched the unconscious Telric, removing any hidden weapons and almost every other item on him that he could find. Finally, he cuffed his hands and took the Toa of lightning's mask off. He held the Kanohi in his hand and suddenly had an idea. He turned to Valria. "Mind if I hang on to this for a little longer?" he asked her, indicating the mask.

[Hanako Herupa]

IC: (Valria)Uh...sure, I don't know why'd you want to keep that reminder of him." Valria answered, raising an eyebrow and still nursing her wrist. She turned to Mef."Well it's good to see you regardless...why did you storm off?" Valria asked. "Well it's going to be hard, loading a crossbow usually takes two hands but I think I can figure out a way." She looked outside only to see another Toa of Fire fighting nearby, slashing away at matoran, Skakdi, and Vortixx. Throwing fireballs as well."Well I think we have our distraction. Vezok you want to lead?" She asked, as she struggled to reload.IC: (Assorted Mooks (I mean mercenaries) )While Frieza was enjoying the sadistic pleasure of torturing the Vortixx, A Skakdi had taken out his war-hammer and swung low at Frieza's feet in an attempt to knock him down. Meanwhile the rest of the men and women slowly formed a circle around Frieza and began to push inward, cutting of all forms of escape. Hatred gleamed in their eyes, their blades thirsted for blood. The blood of Frieza. They were brothers in arms but only through money, or because of their bloodlust, it did not matter, for what mattered to them was cutting down this Toa who had attacked them.

[Snelly]

IC: Frieza - Second Story of a Building -Frieza saw the attack by the Skakdi in the corner of his eye and quickly moved the Vortixx. Using the Vortixx's own body to block the attack, the already wounded Vortixx blacked out, and would most likely die soon after. Frieza took his scythe and swung it down at the Skakdi that had attacked. The scythe still glowed red hot from being heated up by Frieza. "Going down."

[Vezok's Friend]

IC: Agni pocketed the Kanohi and nodded. "Sure thing. We're on the second floor...shortest route and probably unexpected would be out the window on the other side. We could use your power again Val. Mef, would you mind picking up the trash?" the Toa of fire asked, inidcating the unconscious Toa of Lightning.

[a goose]

IC: Xylak (from Po-Wahi), Nikarra & ReichenbachXylak walked towards The Final Problem, only to be stopped at the door. "Why can't I come in?""Bossman says you ain't comin' in." A large Skakdi growled."Tell 'bossman' he's a fool." A sharply pitched sound directly inside his audio receptors caused the Skakdi to fall to the ground, and Xylak walked in."No." Reichenbach said, looking up. "Not you.""And why not? I thought I was a pretty lovable guy." Xylak shrugged, sitting down beside the other Toa."You know why not.""C'mon, we're family. We ought to say hello every now and then." Xylak chuckled, looking over at him. "By the way, I heard you changed your name. Triking Shack or something, right?""Reichenbach.""Got it, Trike." Xylak stood up, and moved to walk out."Nikarra's here." Reichenbach pointed out."One minute you want me to leave, and the next you're convincing me to stay. The criminal mind is a mystery." A grin crossed Xylak's face beneath his mask. "Whereabouts is she, anyway?""Here." Nikarra said, walking out before slapping Xylak."Did I deserve that?" Xylak asked, rubbing the place where Nikarra had hit him."Yes. You did.""Gee, if Nekron were here and Proditor weren't dead this would be a nice little family reunion, wouldn't it?" Xylak observed."I have no time for Reichenbach, nevermind you." Nikarra sighed."I say hello to my brother and my cousin and find out everyone hates me. This is nice." The crystal on his staff was a sickly green. "I don't suppose I can stay or something? I've been hearing... interesting things about this place..."

[Mef Man]

IC(Mef)

Since Valria's question of why he stormed off seemed to be quickly forgotten, Mef was glad to move on to another subject."I came back to save your skins and this is how you repay me? Oh well, I've never gotten to be this close to a blood thirsty Brakas before..." he mumbles the last part as he hoists the unconscious Toa over his shoulder. "So, Agni, you're the sheriff, I'm the deputy; is that it?"-Mef Man

[Hanako Herupa]

OOC: Sorry Snelly, I can either post later today or you can get the show on the road yourself, making dispatching the guards fun, which I'm sure you will.IC: (Valria)"Sorry, Kuyre, it's been so hectic! It's good to see you again." She smiled weakly."Mef?" Valria asked. "Is something wrong?" Her eyes were worried but also confused, why was Mef behaving this way? What was he so angry about? Perhaps it was because Valria didn't greet Mef with a hug and a kiss, but Valria wasn't even considering that, for one they were in the middle of a hostile villa and two...she didn't really want to think about relationships right now. She had people to save and this sprained right hand was going to make things difficult. They still had to escape as well. So many things at once and a few of these things could wait. Maybe Mef thought he should have been killed? Valria did not know, she wanted to know, but at the same time, they were wasting valuable time.

[Mef Man]

IC(Mef)

Mef smiles at Valria, saying,"I'm fine, Val. Just seeing you alive makes it better. And Agni," he adds quickly while looking at the Toa of Fire. "But, we can talk later, now we have some beings who are in desperate need of a good beating," he adds while smiling at Valria, trying to reassure her that he was okay. Seeing them alive did make him feel better, but he still felt as stupid as Karz for running out like a jealous school-Matoran.-Mef Man

[a goose]

IC: Xylak"Goodbye, people. I'm leaving before someone else tries to kill me." Xylak gave a small bow, and left. The situation was fine so far. How disappointing.He took a boat, intending to return to Ga-Koro.OOC: Xylak to Ga-Wahi.

IC: Dorian (The Final Problem, Xa-Koro)"She has intel on the vault," said Dorian with a shrug. "I have two days and three nights to pick and choose whoever I please. If I have to spend my Friday night with a six and a half in order to come out a quarter of a billi richer, I'd be fine with that."-Teezy

IC:"Six-point-five is generous," I said to myself, before my attention was caught again by Dor-Dor's mention of a quarter-billion widgets. "A quarter billion? What makes you think she has that kind of dough? If she had that much cash, I would expect that by now she would have at least bought herself a new pair of-"

[shadow pridak money gang]

IC: Dorian (The Final Problem, Xa-Koro)"It's about calculation, Grokk. Putting the pieces together. Look at all these tables. Each of these tables is required to have somewhere between the avenue of 250,000 to 500,000 widgets available at all times. There's what? Forty, fifty for blackjack and poker alone? Discounting roulette and slots and everything else, that's 20,000,000 million just from one quadrant of the casino, and one of the lower paying quadrants at that. Keep on looking around. Can you see the money racking up yet?"He grinned to himself, looking for all the world like a kid smitten for his first girlfriend. "Add that to the considerable reward that the Koros have out for this Reepicheep guy - which we can collect as soon as Brykon's bosses are done with him - and I'd say we're all looking at a payout somewhere in the 9 digit range. And I am willing to take her off your hands to help make that payout a reality. You're welcome, broski."-Teezy

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"Yeah, sure, feel free to inflate your ego about all that 'community service' you're doing me," I said. "I think you're just making excuses for getting with a six. Feel free to wait here; I'm gonna go make money." I headed over to one of the card tables, watching the end of a game. I bent over the shoulder of a random player, and whispered in his ear, "You're going to lose." Guess what? He did. A hefty stack, too. Guy got real red in the face. I chortled as I took his place at the table.

[a goose]

IC: PirokPirok had happened to be sitting at the same table, and found it suspicious that the guy had lost right after Grokk spoke to him. "If I didn't know any better, I'd say you deliberately attempted to unnerve him and take his place."

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"What?" I asked innocently. "You thought that I... oh no! Do I look like I'd be that inconsiderate? I should be ashamed of myself, obviously I'm not dressed well enough to give the correct impression... No, I just told the gentleman that pink birdies would eat his eyes on saturday, nothing to unnerve him." I gave Mr. Suspicion a big smile that displayed one of my bright gold teeth.

[a goose]

IC: PirokI don't like this guy. "That is perhaps the most believable story I have ever heard since the last time I saw a pig flying."

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"Yeah, those flying pigs," I agreed, "Crazy stuff. Did you know they actually use their own obesity to serve them? Cigar!" I called to a showgirl waitress with a tray of fat ones, and took one of them from the platter. I popped the thing in my mouth, and she lit it for me. I turned back to Mr. Suspicion, cigar between my teeth as a spoke. "I mean, wreally, who would expeck' that a big fa' howg could just ge' up and fwy, wright?" I took a puff, held the cigar out in front of my face. "But no, they use their own body fat as fuel for those jetpacks of theirs, believe it or not. Why else do you think they're so hungry all the time?"

[a goose]

IC: Pirok"Allow me to correct that statement."

[shadow pridak money gang]

IC: Dorian (The Final Problem, Xa-Koro)Someone shoot him, for God's sake.Dorian merely shrugged and sat down at a nearby poker tournament, plucking two cards from the deck and motioning for champagne.-Teezy

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"Certainly," I replied, raising my eyebrows. This would be a laugh. "Go right ahead, professor."

[a goose]

IC: Pirok"Rather than using jetpacks, they use a similar method to bees in order to fly - they don't actually know that they're not supposed to fly. I hear that there's one place where some moron told them, so they don't fly there anymore."

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"Pigs are definitely not free spirits," I agreed sagely. "You of all people clearly know this from experience... A personality like yours, I'm sure you deal with all kinds of pigs."

[a goose]

IC: Pirok"Funnily enough, I get the feeling that I'm dealing with one right now." Pirok glared at Grokk.

[Nuju Metru]

OOC: I knew you'd do that.IC:"I had the same thought about you!" I assured him with a friendly expression. "Weird, huh, how we're on the same frequency? Great minds think alike. But, I suppose, since I'm not a great mind, I'm a pig..." I bit my lip and lowered my eyes in exaggerated shame. "Oops, gee wilikers, I was about to say something mean."

[a goose]

OOC: I had a feeling you'd do that. XDIC: Pirok"Fools seldom differ."

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"Indeed," I noted. "In that case, I find you remarkably unchanging."

[a goose]

IC: Pirok"Imagine that. I would reply with something similar, but I'm guessing that your personality is the type that changes often."OOC: ACCUSATION.

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"I dunno what you're accusing me of, bub," I said, shaking my head, "And that's a problem. Frankly pal, I'm disappointed. Get some more specificity with your jibes, hey?"

[otter]

IC-Ryllia:"Are you two going to sit here and argue all day," a rather attractive Toa of Water asked, bending down beside Grokk, "Or are you going to play the game? I would just love to watch you lose your money."

[a goose]

IC: Pirok"I'm not the type to make jibes. I am, however, the type to notice fluctuations in behaviour. Personally, I think I should be the one disappointed in you." Pirok's face was expressionless as he said this. Using one of Incommodo's tactics was in no case a good plan, but it might just work here.

[Nuju Metru]

IC:"I'd like to watch you do a lot of things," I replied to the newcomer, a, shall we say, sculpted female. "Gimme a sec, doll, I have to put this guy in his place." I turned back to the high-and-mighty pig. "I don't see how I could ever be disappointing. Look at me! -yeah, and you can look at me too, all you want-" I said, briefly turning back to the chick before readdressing captain stuffypants. "Fluctuations in behavior, huh? Am I supposed to stay consistent for your benefit? I thought we all came here to have fun, make money. You can't do either if you don't have a good poker face. Or faces." I proceeded to make a number of awesome grimaces at him.
