BIONIFIGHT INFINITE

[Some Random Phrase]

IC Velix:

Velix had little way to defend himself, and a nonmoving competitor was a dead one. He stumbled to his feet, weak from the energy drain,  and did a little hop, pouring all the energy gained from speed absorption of Tomo's fists into it. This turned it into a full-fledged leap that sent him shooting to the next catwalk level.

[Nato G]

IC: Alisa Dare - Arena.

 

Alisa grinned, watching as her shield clanged off a pillar and bounced onto the floor, rolling on its edge along the wide platform to come to a rest at the foot of the staircase she was standing on.

 

She stepped forwards to snatch it up, and decided to take a page out of Olari's book. Pointing her hand up at a vat of molten protodermis moving diagonally above the platform, she sent a blast of Physical Absence into the bottom of it, creating a nice, big hole.  

 

As the vat continued moving forwards along its railing, the molten metal inside it poured out the hole, dousing the platform - with Kuro still standing on it, unable to see what was coming - with raw lava. 

[Xaeraz]

IC: Zephyr swore loudly, an unprintable stream of words flying out of his mouth as Bajets' fist slammed into his face. However, if she was paying attention, she'd hear the swearing trail off into laughter as he reached up with his free hand, another vine shooting out of that arm to snag her other wrist. With a grunt of pain, the Bo-toa removed his face from her fist and forced the vine already wrapped several times around her lower arm to seemingly ripple and-

 

Oh.

 

Those are thorns ripping out of it. Thorns dripping with some kind of sick fluid, glistening like amber in the light of the Furnace's heat. And they were already poking at the edge of the vine already wrapped around her arm, trying to push through her armor and skin.

[Khromatose]

IC: Kuro/Great Furnace, Fighting Alisa, Running

I sensed an intense heat, more intense than the air as I was stepping forward.

To my surprise, I felt droplets that had flown out of a growing pool of molten metal that was approaching from behind, and before I cooked alive, I ran forward as the portion of the path behind me, I assumed, became doused in flames.

IC: Virse - Arena (with Ardian, Buzzz, and Riss)

 

Virse carefully considered the Toa and her upraised hands. Just because she was trying to appear harmless, that didn't mean a Toa ever was. But Virse held out a hand to stop Buzzz. "No, not now."

 

Then her focus snapped back to the Toa. "Just climbing, then? Would you like to do some real fighting... with us?"

[Constructelf]

IC: Sudrec

Destroy him.

 

Destroy him now.

 

He must die.

 

Diediediediedie -

 

Shut up. He's actually useful.

 

The id rebels, but the superego keeps it in check.

 

"... Truce."

 

Hand, pressing a button on the vest. Armor of light, disappearing. Gun, pointing at the floor.

 

...

 

Heartbeat, slow like a lullaby. Breath, peaceful like a river...

 

...

 

Sudrec looked at Hound, then back it at the direction where he came from.

 

"This whole free-for-all business is one big mess. Everybody trying to kill you... Yeesh." Sudrec rubbed the back of his hood, which was draped over his head, with the rest of his cloak around his body.

 

IC: Yoko

"..."

 

Silently regarding the dying Snarl, Yoko's cape began moving once more. The Elementless Toa began cruising near the ceiling of the furnace at a comfortable pace.

 

IC: Tomo (as Coco)

The Toa jumped backwards, accelerating beyond all natural capability. Meanwhile, Tomo's arms finally snapped back to their usual Coco length. She He turned to look at Praggos, saying: "This one remembers you." The Makuta, in the guise of the Ko-Toa, gave no threatening gesture.

 

IC: Minami

Somehow, Minami had made it to the center of this Den of Madness, looking up at some sort of spire. There was a door leading to a staircase at the bottom of it. "Might be a good idea to head inside..."

 

OOC: Sudrec talking to Hound, Yoko cruisin' along, Tomo talking to Praggos, Minami unwittingly approaching Kale's location.

[Keeper of Kraata]

IC: Skorm - Great Furnace (Lower Catwalks)

 

By the time the swarm reached Sko, the pair's blasts had taken out most of it. Unfortunately, it was only most of them. The few that were left tore into Sko; he was able to singe a few off, but the Av-entity succumbed to the fiery pain, collapsing onto the metal catwalk.

 

Orm was disgusted; if this other being weren't linked to his own existence, he'd kick the do-gooder into the lava below. But, he needed Sko alive. A few shadow bolts finished off the rest of the fireflyers. Sko remained on the ground, quivering in pain.

 

"Great. You got us deafened, and now I have to drag you around. Wonderful."

[Samus Aran-Bounty Hunter]

IC: Bajets (Fighting Zephyr)

 

Well. This was not going as planned. 

 

"You realize that's not exactly the type of drink I'd like, right?" She muttered sarcastically, rearing back even as she activated her powers again, her trapped arm hardening to better ward off the thorny spikes starting to develop. With enough luck, that would hold long enough. 

 

Taking advantage of their close quarters, Bajets tried to hook a leg around Zephyr's and yanked back, trying to pull him off balance, while she simultaneously wrenched her right arm a bit more free. 

 

All she needed was one hand. One hand and a few seconds. Suddenly smirking, Lady Bajets von Zakaz VII spat at Zephyr's face.

[Voltex]

GM IC: ELITTRA

 

"Alright, let's go," Elittra said. "If we're lucky, we'll find ourselves a tunnel."

 

 

GM IC: VON WORTEN + NOCTON

 

The image of the golden armored being appeared to shrug.

 

When you are as powerful as myself, you grow bored. It is far more entertaining to play with your food than to eat it, so to speak, when you have been given an eternity to feast. The minds of every single member of your quest are open to me to read, as though they were pages of a picture book. That makes you predictable, and it means I can reach out and break you whenever I want. 

 

The being laughed - a sinister sound that seemed to echo within the mind of Von Worten.

 

Perhaps I shall simply have these Vahki hit you as well? And then they may escort the two of you through my maze... and then you shall be under MY command when you reunite with your Queen. That sounds like it might be very entertaining, indeed.

 

 

GM IC: CYARC - WITH XAERAZ/LYTREL

 

The massive Toa of Gravity shrugged, grinning widely.

 

"I... got mixed with... Nomec! It was... not GREAT! But then it was... FANTASTIC. Yes! Ahahaha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

 

 

GM IC: ALBRECHT + EZEZKO

 

The gray Rahkshi remained silent and still as it hovered in the air, although Albrecht and Ezezko would get the feeling that it was observing them.

 

 

GM IC: THE QUEEN + KOPEN

 

The Queen withdrew from Kopen's mind as she retreated into her own thoughts. She did not have the time to learn whatever lessons were being taught naturally - for the first time in countless years, the Queen started using her own powers on herself, flipping through memories as fast as she could, examining each of them in turn for any consistent thoughts, details, or emotions. 

 

Over and over again, as she sped through her lifetime spent as one of the Bionifight Organizers, she took the words of Kopen into account - and slowly but surely, her perspective began to change as she began to realize what was occurring. 

[Some Random Phrase]

IC Nocton:

Nocton was helpless to not point his gun at Von Worten, but anything other then that was fine. He began charging his Shadow powers.

[fishers64]

IC(A.D.): A.D. choose to dive into the lava, away from Xara. He would rather take his own life than get killed by the Rahkshi again. 

 

A.D. KO'd by Himself. 

 

OOC: Technically this invalidates all posts after Xara's attempt to mount him/stab him. 

[Constructelf]

IC: Lytrel

"... And how did you get mixed with Nomec?"

[Xaeraz]

IC: "...S-sure, I'll join up," Riss said, a bit shocked by Virse's offer. She had been expecting a sword to the face, or at least a punch. Then again, Hound had been the one to kill her, and she was actively seeking him out. Riss swallowed, nodded, and said, "So, no hard feelings about last round?"

 

IC: Well, shoot. She was resisting his thorns, somehow, and pulling free? Zephyr was about to shoot a retort when she began pulling his leg with hers. An evil smirk zipped across his face and his free hand swung down, using the vine to steady himself. He clucked his tongue disapprovingly at her as he triggered his Felnas, aiming to send both her skin resistance and her lasers haywire at the same time.

 

IC: "No, I mean, down here, in the tunnels. I thought Bionifight had taken up residency in a dead universe, but here you are, and you're not a fighter, to my knowledge?"

[Silvan Haven]

Kale Ironshaper- Central Spire

 

IC: It seemed that Uri had gotten the message. Kale trusted that the Re-Toa would be be able to find his way up. In the meantime there were several other things drawing his attention.

 

He could feel a semi familiar mental ping at the edges of his mind at the same time he spotted a glowing Toa looking curiously at his location. They had probably been attracted by the flashing light. Opening up a small hole in his outermost mental defenses and shoring up his secondary ones the Av-Toa spoke in his mind.

 

This is Kale Ironshaper. who are you?

 

In the meantime the hologram sent to Uri turned back into a swirl of lights and shot over to Fia to repeat more or less the same process.

 

OOC: Kale responding to Tenjou and sending Fia more or less the same message sent to Uri.

[Not Quite Dead]

IC Ezezko - Labyrinth

You had mulled over the other Toa's words. [You have some of my trust, Albrecht. I did let you handle my life over that gap back there...] Your gaze turned back to the gloomy rahkshi. [Any luck contacting it with your powers?]

 

IC Tenjou - Open air

The Av-Toa had some impressive mental defenses. He had met makuta with less. ;I am Tenjou's companion, Kale Ironshaper. We are hovering near the spire the other Toa is under, currently invisible. Is this other Toa an ally?;

GM IC: CYARC - WITH XAERAZ/LYTREL

 

"I am so a fighter!" Cyarc whined, sounding insulted. He shook his arms for emphasis as he replied, "look! I am... all muscle! And other things! Fighting things, yes! Ahahahaha! I am GREAT at... fighting! But hmm!"

 

He tapped a finger to his chin, pondering the questions that Xaeraz and Lytrel had asked before nodding to the latter.

 

"That is... a good question... traitor! It is a... long story! I don't remember details! Nomec does... yes! Ahaha! Ha! But I... do not!" He chortled for several seconds before appearing to remember that Xaeraz had also asked another question. "Bionifight? That sounds like... FIGHTING! YES! I am... GREAT at fighting... ahaha... ha... ha!"

[Smudge8]

IC: Buzzz-Arena

 

"Sure, I suppose." Buzzz said, recording who this Toa was.  "Now let's go get some action before this round is over."

[Silvan Haven]

Kale Ironshaper- Central Spire

 

IC:

 

Indeed he is. We met before the round started and he seems friendly and trustworthy enough. I am also attempting to recruit another Toa, you will probably be able to pick them out by the glow they give off.

 

It was nice to meet friends again.

[Xaeraz]

IC: "Oh, I don't doubt your prowess," Xaeraz said, switching legs to check the other one. "I just meant as, uh, a competitor in the tournament. You weren't there for the, ah, 'Opening Ceremony,' for instance."

 

IC: Fia snarled. Another Av-toa in the tournament, huh. Another lying, backstabbing snake. But, this one had, instead of just killing her, decided to identify himself and even provide a location. He seemed...Different from most Av-toa she knew. Fia sighed, and began to scythe towards the spire Kale had holed up in, readying herself in case it really was just an av-toa trap.

[Constructelf]

IC: Lytrel

"Hey. Last I heard, you didn't like your boss either."

 

...

 

"Yeah. Did the Queen bring you here? Or were you here before the Bionifight Tournament arrived? What universe is this anyway?"

[Click]

IC: Virse - Arena (with Ardian, Buzzz, Riss)

 

Her eyes almost seemed to become tender through the mask of the warrior. "As I told Hound, I have put such feelings behind me. Come on."

 

Without another word, she turned to run after Buzzz and Nine in pursuit of the being with glowing armor. Let's see how he dealt with numbers.

 

 

IC: Kopen - Queen's Tunnel

 

The Queen fell silent and withdrew, leaving Kopen to shift nervously in the quiet cavern. Had she gone too far?

[Voltex]

GM IC: CYARC - WITH XAERAZ/LYTREL

 

The Toa's eyes narrowed.

 

"You are... confusing me!" he said, sounding hurt. "That is... not nice! Nope! I do not want... to answer... any more questions! Nope!"

 

OOC: Insane guy probably isn't the best choice to interrogate for answers.

 

 

GM IC: THE QUEEN + KOPEN

 

It was silent for a long time - the only movement on the Queen's side was when she slowly sank to the floor. She sat with legs crossed, hands on her knees, and head bowed slightly. Her eyes were closed.

[Nato G]

IC: Alisa Dare - Arena.

 

This rahk had seemed to be unrealistically uncannily lucky. Alisa continued up the staircase, moving up onto the next level as the platform she'd just doused with molten protodermis began to collapse, weakened by the shower....

[Constructelf]

IC: Lytrel

"..."

 

...

 

OOC: okay, you want more description?

 

Just look at my avatar. Look at Haise's face.

 

That's what Lytrel is doing right now.

[Blessed Blade]

IC:

 

"It is bound to me." The armored woman answered, without discernible movement. Elly had moved closer, but Noroi was as still as a statue. "Sigmatis Fatum. Sealed Fate. An archaic language, likely that of its creators. My presence within it is not of my own volition, nor is my freedom within the realm of my own choices."

 

"I require the willing permission of another to exit." A pause. "It seems I am not the only one changing my form. Enforcer."

-==IC: Elly==-

 

Elly smiled, but then nodded. "You're right. Call me Elly." The being said, and thought for a moment. "I grant you permission to exit your armour." Elly said, as her smile widened. She said they would fight all out... and she meant it.

[Burnmad]

IC - Okavaung (Great Furnace):

The knife missed Okavaung as he banked to the right, about to make another pass. He noted that the Toa of Ice's mind was quite clearly located away from what would seem to be its physical body. Unfazed, the dragon breathed his frost breath directly towards the concealed Matoran-- and Ten, if he was still close enough to be caught in the blast.

[Nato G]

IC: The Wyrm - Arena.

 

Scuttling out of the alcove he'd been hiding in, The Wyrm kept low to the ground, moving slowly and carefully so that his chameleon powers could adjust to the slightly brighter environment. 

 

He was an ambush predator, and now, he was on the hunt....

[25K Now!]

IC: Naona (MC) ~ Arena

 

Stone. The building blocks of civilisation.

 

Literally.

 

Naona pushed his elemental energies out of his body, forming a quick and dirty looking set of stairs that he used to bound away from the collapsing catwalk. Leaping from it to a higher walkway, the Toa of Stone quickly reabsorbed his creation, and began to run towards the facility's central spire.

[Khromatose]

IC: Kuro/Great Furnace, Running

I ran. 
 

I did not care about the consequences, for I was to die anyways. So I continued.

 

OOC: Going out for the night. Cya.

[Nato G]

IC: Alisa Dare - Arena.

 

Alisa reached the top of the stairs and looked down at the Rahkshi from the next platform up. She was amazed that in its blind blundering it hadn't tripped or fallen already, but she knew how to deal with that.

 

She raised her hand, drawing on her dwindling power supply once more to unleash another flash of Absence at the Rahkshi's exposed back, this one intended to take away its sense of touch.

 

If it couldn't see or feel, there's was no way for it to escape the ground giving way beneath its feet....

[Khromatose]

OOC: Can never be saved, can I?

 

IC: Kuro/Great Furnace, KO'd by himeself, caused by Alisa

I immediately regretted my last thoughts, as my direction was off. Since I wasn't paying attention to anything, I ended up falling into the molten protodermis by tripping over the railing.

 

OOC: Really tired of fighting at this point. So suicide is my only answer. I'll be actually off now.

Edited April 9, 2015 by ArcticFreeze17

[Nato G]

IC: Xara - Arena.

 

All of a sudden, the dragon was falling...

 

I withdrew my swords, switching to flight mode and watching as the doomed leviathan tumbled uncontrollably, limbs flailing and thrashing wildly. Surely I hadn't done that much damage?

 

But as the creature splashed down into the molten protodermis far below, I realised that I'd seen this before, back in the first round when the Enforcer had cancelled out its ability to fly. 

 

I looked around, but saw no sign of the Enforcer. Confused, I landed on the nearest catwalk and started moving.  I was missing something here, and I wanted to find out what it was....

________________________________________________________________________________

 

IC: Alisa Dare - Arena. 

 

The energy proved to have been wasted, as the Rahkshi abruptly vanished over the railing, falling several dozen bio down into the fiery pit below. Withdrawing her hand, Alisa turned away and started up another staircase, seeking out her next opponent. 

________________________________________________________________________________

 

IC: The Puppetmaster - Arena. 

 

Getting into a crouched position on one of the lower platforms, his back to the wall, the Puppetmaster projected an illusion around himself that would show nothing but an empty section of walkway.

 

Then he raised his rifle, and waited for someone to wander into his sights. 

[Xaeraz]

IC: Fia slid to a stop in front of the spire and paused, glancing up at the flashing light. While she wasn't the most dextrous fa-toa in existence, even by her own admission, she knew how to make herself fly. And fly she did, rocketing up to the window Kale was blinking his light from, arms folded and a glare plastered across her face once more.

 

"Well," she snarled, "I'm here. What's the deal, Kale?"

 

IC: "Sorry, didn't mean to pester you so much," Xae said with a small smile, plugging his leg back in. "If you want to ask us anything, I'm sure Lytrel's willing to answer, though. I know I am.

 

IC: Riss nodded and followed along behind Virse, taking her mic stand in one hand in case she needed it. She wouldn't say it aloud, but she was relieved Virse had been so understanding. It was a refreshing feeling, really.

[25K Now!]

IC: Naona (Kid) ~ Arena

 

Naona carefully inched her way along her walkway, breathing slowly. She needed to be careful. She couldn't let the heat affect her to great detriment.

 

She needed to survive.

[Silvan Haven]

Kale Ironshaper- Central Spire

 

IC: Aaaand the fuzzy feelings were gone just like that. With Fia closer and speaking Kale could get a better idea of her personality. In a word, testy.

 

Going to need to be careful with this one.

 

Stepping back from the balcony to give Fia a place to land he began talking.

 

"While the round type is called Free-for-All contestants teaming up and working together in order to do better is not against the rules. In fact the first round was won by somebody in a team. The simple fact is that people in teams do better than loners. I am currently doing my best to form one before we are engaged in combat. The two others I have managed to recruit are currently outside the tower and I assume either invisible or hiding."

 

Just then something past the Fa-Toa caught his eye, causing him to crane his neck to get a better view.

 

That Po-Toa is moving pretty fast for somebody without a Kakama. Looks kind of like a male version of Naona.

 

...

 

They wouldn't.

 

They would.

 

Why.

Edited April 9, 2015 by Silvan Haven

[Xaeraz]

IC: "Right, and I'm to expect an Av-toa is willingly teaming up with an inferior element, yes?" She growled, her posture becoming visibly tenser. There was a brief, heavy pause before Fia sighed and, uncharacteristically, apologized.

 

"Sorry. I'm still getting used to this karz-slagged multiple universes thing. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you don't take all the working kanohi for yourself."

[25K Now!]

IC: Naona (MC) ~ Arena/Central Spire

 

Central location. Safer area to hold out than catwalks.

 

Naona moved into the Spire, eyes quickly surveying the area for potential attackers. Hopefully, the Makuta wouldn't bother chasing him so far.

[Nato G]

IC: The Puppetmaster - Arena.

 

Still hidden behind his illusory screen, the Puppetmaster's scope settled on a lone figure inching their way across one of the walkways. Taking careful aim, he settled his crosshairs on her torso and fired a bolt of hardlight at Young Naona. 

[25K Now!]

IC: Naona (Kid) ~ Arena/Catwalks

 

Something was coming.

 

Naona barely managed to pull herself back as the hardlight bolt streaked through where she had been prior, crashing into a walkway just below her and shearing it apart. She nearly stumbled to the floor, shock evident on her face. Where had it come from? Who had attacked her? Her eyes flashed to and fro, looking for a sign of her attacker. Hands fumbled towards her dual escrima sticks, pulling them out. Where were they? Where would the next attack come?

 

Was this what the fight was all about?

 

She couldn't panic.

 

She wanted to live.

[Not Quite Dead]

IC Tenjou - Spire

She came into the spire through a window opposite the feisty fa-toa. Surveying the duo. "Is this the other Toa you mentioned?" She turned her gaze to the darkly colored Toa. "Well met." She quickly recloaked and made her way to a window. "I'm going to keep a watch out while you speak, a central fortification like this is sure to attract others." A disembodied voice from the window, and nothing more.
