Wako's Heart

[dramatispersonae]

You are standing in the middle of the main street of a sizable downtown area.

The early morning sun hangs low in the east. The air is salty and fresh – and oh man is your nose sharp! You can smell the people who came in here with you from yards away! Other stuff smells that strong, too! There is a spring breeze in the air. How do you know it’s spring? You just do. It’s the vibe here. Tropical trees and flowers grow in window boxes and small gardens. There are fairly standard shops (a movie theater! A book store! Small clothing boutiques! And so on), with trucks, cars, and bicycles parked at the curbs. There are no people or animals in sight, but there’s birdsong hanging in the air. It seems to be coming in every direction.

Oh. And you’re dressed like stripper clowns.

(( OOC at #zerotime ))

[jumps up... and stays up. Yay]

... oh, that worked.

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[preteinder]

I'll worry about destroying the rest of you, first!

[o good since like hell I'd be able to hold my own in a fair fight

I GUESS I'LL GO TARGET HIKARU SINCE his player is out HE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE HE HAS THE SLIGHTEST IDEA WHAT HE'S DOING EITHER AND I HAVE ENTHUSIASM FOR BREAKING THINGS!!]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

HEY! MAKE SURE THE KID INSIDE ISN'T HARMED!

[NTS: DO NOT LET CRAZY BLOND ONE BE THE LAST ONE STANDING]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

[NOW I CAN FLY.

BUT YOU'RE TWO ROBOTS.

THIS IS TERRIBLE]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

[TWO COPIES OF THE SAME ROBOT are beating down on Hikaru with you]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

[IT'S OKAY NEITHER OF THEM IS BEATING UP ON YOU setting to work dismantling Hikaru's 'bot, not touching the bubble]

I can probably destroy my own armor pretty efficiently with this feature.

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[myninjaway]

Don't be a coward!!

[jumps up too, and punches wherever!]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[preteinder]

[yaaay, company.

as long as you don't turn your ally in beating down Hikaru when we're done, because I know that's what I'm going to do]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[myninjaway]

[...isn't bullying the weak worse than bullying the strong]

Don't look away!!

[tries to kick you into paying attention to your own fight]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

[if you come anywhere near damaging that cockpit you will get a clonebot fist to your wiftybot face]

[so ready for that, flanking with clonebots]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

YES, YES.

[comes down and chaaaarges]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[myninjaway]

[who made you a knight and why >(]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

Try bringing down the other kid before you do that. I think he could get carried away.

Naruto's fine, though.

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[preteinder]

[he's not aiming for the cockpit but his slashes with his sword are the wild swings of someone who is just aiming to hit with as much force as he can

...and ooooooh, right, I am outnumbered. turning tail and running!]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

[I'M FAAABULOUS. Also a pretty decent fighter, except he's leaving very obvious openings]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

The one in pink? Works for me.

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[dramatispersonae]

[ Hikaru's Lamedhos goes up with a dramatic explosion.

(Hikaru to endgame, in one piece and out of costume.)

Your music shifts again ]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

[attempting to box him in with clonebots]

Thought the idea was that everyone goes down.

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[myninjaway]

[yes this probably wouldn't go this way if we were just sparring, but helping Wako is important and us shounen protagonists draw our strength from plot relevance... so. targeting your openings.]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[preteinder]

[if one of those bots gets straight in front on him, he is going for a direct point thrust, ramming into it to get past]

Loosen up! They're just giant toys, don't you want to have some fun while you have the chance? I'm not going to just give up!

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[iwantyour]

[JUST AS PLANNED]

KYAA~ NARUTO-KUN SO FORCEFUL~~!

[is totally going downnn]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[dramatispersonae]

[ Qophlite goes up with a glorious mushroom cloud explosion!

(Souya, in one piece and out of the crazy outfit, goes to endgame.)

The music changes again. ]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[myninjaway]

[SO ANTICLIMATIC]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[identityformations]

[r-rammed, losing some ground, and just taking the thrust, not caring about damage, to get closer to Alois]

[aaaaand then the other clonebot is piling onto the wiftybot's back. SANDWICHED.]

Didn't realize running counted as fun.

[DISMANTLING TIME not drawing his sword, just trying to keep him very close and damage limbs]

Re: ZERO TIME (THIRD STAGE)

[preteinder]

Never played tag?

—get off![frustrated flailing, and shouting. if he can, trying to stab through his own robot and the other two, if YOU'RE GOING TO SANDWICH ME, YOU'LL GET IMPALED WITH ME TOO!!

if, of course, he hasn't had his arms restrained or damaged. if he has, and has no place to run, yeah, he's screwed and going down]
