The streets of Wayport had turned into an absolute warzone, and it seemed that Uptown was soon to follow. It hadn’t even been a few hours since the alien spaceships seemed to just zap into existence, demanding the human race to submit and allow their home to be assimilated over any and all radio frequencies. Of course, that didn’t bode well with the governments or the bureaucracies of the world. The United Nations, the Holy See, Aegis, and whatever other organization was out there, it didn’t matter. They were all in the same boat now.
To Ahoeitu though, this whole thing was, in a way, an absolutely glorious opportunity. These pushover aliens had decided that they were gonna trash his city? Talk about an early Christmas gift, now he would get to kick massive amounts of ass and look good doing it, not to mention, his newly formed Superhero team would finally be able to make their first appearance. Speaking of, they were meant to assemble uptown soon, and Ahoeitu was currently waiting at the rendezvous point: a rooftop adjacent to the giant saucer that was hovering over the neighborhood.
The japanese hero didn’t look away from the saucer for a second, keeping his ESP active to allow for extra awareness. So far, it seemed no hostiles had even snuck off the ship or anything, only the glowing white figures of civilians in their homes showed up around him, which was certainly a good thing. As soon as his team arrived, they could formulate a plan and likely get a jump on the aliens. After all, they were already attacking downtown, it would only be a matter of time before they started attacking uptown as well. “We might need to have a meeting about punctuality.”, he muttered, shaking his head at the giant saucer.
[attr="class","monlyrics2"]Just another Thursday, huh?
[attr="class","monbody2"]
Of course it was an alien invasion. As soon as they'd gotten the threat from space the team of young adults was in action. Everyone else was already out fighting but Sun-hi had to take a minute to power up Nexus Buster and load in some data from the Aegis servers. She'd been staying at the headquarters while she found a decent spot to relocate to and so far she hadn't had to deploy for real. Apparently back in the day these same aliens had fought Solara, the world's most famous super hero, and there was still a little information floating around from then. She'd have to see if it was useful information on the way. Things were kinda... chaotic to say the least, but it hadn't reached them yet. Better to be ready for it when it came than be caught off guard.[break][break]
Once Nexus Buster, gleaming chrome and hot rod flames, she launched and set on route to the rooftop rendezvous Ahoeitu had pointed out. The big sleek UFO hovering over the city was like a shot out of a movie and she could swear she could hear it making a noise over the purr of Nexus Buster's engines. With everyone inside her teammate was easy to pick up on the scanner and she set the mech down with a hearty thunk! on the rooftop. Sunny revved the thruster engines as a threat to the aliens overhead, but she doubted they could hear it.[break][break]
"What, you haven't provoked them yet?" Her voice projected out of the mech as it approached the edge of the rooftop. She'd have to upgrade the machine's scanning systems; she wasn't getting anything useful back off of having the sensors pointed at the UFO. Til she got something useful her eyes were skimming through the file she downloaded. If Aegis had any ideas how to fight these guys it'd only help their chances. Sunny wasn't really keen on getting murdered by aliens today. "I'm going to try to get readings on their tech from here, if I can get some energy frequencies I can modify my barrier to handle it better. I think we're going to need it."
”Iyadaa! Nani shiyou ka?! This is terrible! Why did these aliens choose this planet to unleash so much terror?”
[break][break]
Unfortunately, Kyoko already knew the answer to that question, or at least to a basic extent. [break][break]
These aliens, supposedly ‘Haramites’, had beef with the late Solera in the past and had now come to enact a sort of revenge. That was all the knowledge Kyoko could pry out from nearby Aegis correspondence before being quickly ushered away with a miffed ‘You’re a hero, not an intel agent’. [break][break]
It still left her in the dark about how to best approach the situation, something Kyoko desperately wanted to know now that their hordes were raining terror onto the Downtown district. Their massive numbers were unnerving. [break][break]
And, for the first time since taking up this job, Kyoko questioned if she’d really be able to be of any help. [break][break]
She truly feared for her life.
[break][break]
Soaring above the darkened skies of Wayport City, a winged Kyoko quickly flew her way to the assembly point requested by Ahoeitu. All the while, the teenage girl’s fangs were clenched with apprehension. Kyoko could sense the ongoing destruction, and in some cases, the loss of life that was unfolding within the Downtown district. It made her wonder why their focus wasn’t at the most critical zone and instead Uptown, which had not yet been attacked. [break][break]
”Ah!” [break][break]
The girl’s emerald eyes caught a glimpse of the hovering saucer nearby. [break][break]
Not attacked… yet. [break][break]
The wings on her back folded as her shoes hit the rooftop of the rendezvous building with a gentle thud. Kyoko exhaled, but it didn’t stop her fur from standing at its end. She did not look at her best and for good reason. It was difficult for her to stay calm as she could feel the situation slowly deteriorating. There were so many stakes at hand. [break][break]
”Good, I didn’t miss the memo,” Kyoko spoke as she saw Victory’s figure, stepping forward. She was about to open her mouth again before she noticed a large robot on the other side of the roof-- with quite the familiar passenger inside. [break][break]
She squinted. [break][break]
”Y-You,” Kyoko said, pointing at the cockpit of the mecha, ”I know you! You’re that techie girl-- back in Japan!” Exclaimed the tanuki, suddenly breaking into a smile. Something was revealing about observing a familiar face. She -- Sun-Lee? Sun..Chi? What was her name again? -- had been quite a force back then when she and Kyoko tag-teamed. ”I didn’t know you were a part of the team as well. Sugoi! That’s awesome!”. [break][break]
Kyoko cleared her throat. There would be time later for a more formal reunion. [break][break]
”Well Mr. Victory,” She began, skeptical eyes directed at Ahoeitu now, ”I hope you have a plan if we’re not going to be helping out Downton immediately. Things are getting really bad there!” [break][break]
Sure, it was important to form a stronghold here as well, Kyoko could understand that. But to knowingly start somewhere else as others were under attack… It was an unsettling thought to her. [break][break]
Kyoko fiddled into her utility belt, retrieving seeds that she’d hold between the gaps of her fingers. Kyoko was armed and ready for battle. [break][break]
”Whatever the case, I’m prepared to defend. We can’t let a bunch of aliens destroy this city!”
It wasn't every day that one experienced an alien invasion, in fact most people didn't experience it in their lifetimes. At least not on such a grand scale, despite the world being overrun by the supernatural and mystical; there were still some things that shocked the young woman. Emerald eyes peering out to the city below her, she could see the destruction and chaos below her and knew that this was the perfect time to prove herself.
Vivienne was still relatively new to the working on the field, but she found preparation for times like this in her upbringing. Pushed to her limits in hopes of spawning a truly remarkable hero, and she was grateful that her parents gave her the foundation she needed to break away from them. Yes, she would be an amazing hero... but it would be on her own terms.
The rendezvous for the team Victory had began putting together was close now, three of her allies already having met up on a rooftop coming into her vision. A raging blue fire bird left an equally volatile contrail behind the young woman as she soared toward her team, long blonde coils dancing atop her head from her dangerous speed. Though the she quickly used her shadow magic to latch herself onto the shadow of the young girl whose appearance was akin to an animal hybrid, vanishing from the air; seemingly swallowed by darkness.
Suddenly, Kyoko's shadow would begin to expand in front of her to become a lengthened dark pool that would be alarming to most. The shadow would then rise and take shape and if someone were pulling it's center with a wire, rising and breaking off to hover in the air as a swirling dark orb for only a second before bursting to reveal the woman underneath. A form fitting black body suit with short white gloves and boots, a glowing blue fire bird positioned onto her chest with a white striped acting as a symbolic belt on her waste.
Vivienne floated in place as her body continued to be surrounded by the flaming blue, bird shaped cloak she so often donned and she looked down to the team. Now only a few feet below her, crossing her arms and replying to the little bit of dialogue she'd caught while teleporting in.
"And we won't... They don't stand a chance against our combined power. I'm Hellbird by the way, nice to meet you all."
Eyes shifting to Victory she'd sigh a bit and apologize for her tardiness with a small smile.
"Sorry i'm late, I got a bit caught up with some petty thieves."
Kaiden was stuffing his face with one of his mom's signature breakfast subs when an emergency broadcast played on the tv.[break][break]
A young woman trying her best not to sound panicked spoke over a live-feed of UFOs descending from the sky. She was saying something about visitors from another planet. Which he hadn't thought was a bad thing until they started firing a laser at the city.[break][break]
Wide-eyed and almost choking on his food, Kaiden shot up from the couch as they continued to attack. There was barely any time for him to process what was going on. His cellphone vibrated in his pocket, and immediately he pulled it out to check it. It was Aegis, of course, and he knew what they wanted.[break][break]
It was hero time.[break][break]
------[break][break]
Aegis didn't tell Kaiden much about the invaders, but that was okay. What little they had told him was useful, and besides, he didn't need a detailed explanation about the Harmatites. They were putting the world at risk, and that's all that mattered at the moment.[break][break]
On his way to meet up with the rest of his team - Kaiden kept getting sidetracked helping civilians get to safety. While it slowed him down, it also gave him a chance to see some of the destruction first hand. It pissed him off, and that anger only grew the closer he got to his detestation. By the time he arrived at the rendezvous point Kaiden was fuming and it showed.[break][break]
He kicked the door to the roof off its hinges, "It's a fucking mess out there." he declared with gritted teeth. "These bastards have no empathy for the lives their taking. It's disgusting." and if they did Kaiden hadn't seen it.[break][break]
"Oh and whose bright idea was it to meet on a fucking roof? he continued, "Because they shouldn't be picking the meeting spots anymore. Stairs are a bitch and not everyone can fly." he finished with a sigh.
Ahoeitu turned around to face his team once Vivienne had finally arrived on the scene. He scanned the teenagers all lined up together as a team. He hated working with teams but the sight of all of them together like this did make him grin. “No, I haven’t provoked them yet, actually. Shocking right? I mean in any other universe I’d probably just jump into action, but I’m a nice guy, I wanted to let you guys have some fun.” He retorted sarcastically to Sunny’s question. She was a fine asset to the team, with intellect that even he himself couldn’t rival no matter how many books he read, and that was saying something. But she’d never hear that compliment transform from thoughts into words. The Samoan nodded his head as Sunny explained her plan to him. “Sounds good.”, was all he uttered in response.
He shifted his gaze to Kyoko, and began addressing her remark about downtown. Her abnormal worry for all things “life” was something that totally blanked his mind. Of course she’d have a problem with them skipping over downtown, causing Ahoeitu to roll his eyes and respond in an over-exaggerated manner. “Why the hell would we go downtown when Aegis HQ is down there already? Surely they’ve got heroes up the ass giving those creeps a pounding.” He turned his head back briefly, motioning to the residential buildings that consumed uptown before returning to his original position. “On the other hand, we’re the only folks uptown that are even remotely capable of bringing that giant saucer crashing down. You wanna go downtown when we’re done here? Be my guest! Hell I might just join you! But focus up here while that thing is still in the sky. That goes for all of you! We don’t have time for ‘what-ifs’ and shoulda, woulda, couldas!”
The Japanese teen placed his hands on his hips as Vivienne explained what had taken her so long. He stared silently for a few moments before saying: “We don’t have time for excuses either. Petty situations are petty, we treat them as such.”, he snapped coldly, just as Kaiden bust through the door ranting and cursing like a sailor. He stared the young man dead in the eyes as he complained about the meeting spot and climbing stairs. A superhero, complaining about climbing stairs. Ahoeitu looked him up and down slowly before simply chuckling at his fellow hero and turning back around to face the alien spaceship. “Anyway,” he continued. “I didn’t know you two were acquainted!” He smiled, nodding his head as he looked back and forth between Kyoko and Sunny. “That’ll make this next part easy: Nexus, you’re with me on assault once you’ve got that data all together, we’ll be heading into the ship directly to bring it down. Emote, Hellbird and Kunoichi, you three are a team together on defense. If you’re ever in too deep, just give some kind of signal, I’m sure one of us can get to you in time.” He waved a nonchalant hand on that last part as if he didn’t really care, the ship opening just as he finished speaking.
A swarm of Harmatites on hoverbikes would proceed to rain down on the city, shrieking extraterrestrial battle cries as they streaked down into uptown. The party was starting. “Looks like you’re up, defense! Don’t die out there!”, he said with a massive grin plastered on his jaw. He then turned to Sunny. “You done with that data collecting yet?”
[attr="class","monlyrics2"]I guess someone has to do it
[attr="class","monbody2"]
This first meeting was turning out to be... interesting was the nice word. Everyone arrived in short order and she waved to Kyoko when she arrived. She didn't recognize anyone but her and Ahoeitu but she'd had a chance to look through the data Aegis was willing to provide to get an idea of what they were capable of. With such a small group coordination was going to be a big deal. Ahoeitu, like most people she knew, talked too much.
Things were getting bad out there and she wasn't sure how much good she could do, but she had a hunch if she could get Nexus Buster linked up to the UFO she could divert it somewhere else, maybe use it's weapons to drive off others downtown. And then Ahoeitu said something stupid. "I hope you realize how terrible that idea sounds so I don't have to explain it. If we bring a building sized UFO 'crashing down' in the middle of the city we'll kill thousands of people, what we have to do is find a way to get control of it or drive it off some other way. Same problem with blowing it up, raining fiery alien debris on to the city would be catastrophic. This isn't a video game where everything will just go back to normal when you blow up the mothership," Sunny snapped back, already getting readings coming in from the ship. The language was foreign, but machine code was universal. She still couldn't believe his plan was to just punch shit and wing it. What was he, twelve?
She pivoted her mech and crouched it down with the group gathered and popped the cockpit, pulling out a few ear-mounted communicators she'd made for their upcoming teamwork. If she was going to be on a team she wasn't about to half ass it, and she had a present for her new teammates. "Here, I made these for you guys. They're multi-spectrum communication devices, they'll let us communicate throughout the city so we can coordinate our efforts. It's a secure frequency too so don't worry about them getting in to it. Nexus Buster's communication suite should be enough to keep us in touch even if something happens on the saucer. Judging by their signals I should be able to hijack their controls if we can find the right ports to connect to; if we can do that and subdue the crew we can use its weapons to help downtown, or at least put it down somewhere it's not going to cause a catastrophe. I'll try to monitor the signals I'm getting while I'm up there to help direc--"
Sunny didn't get to finish her sentence before an alarm pinged from inside the cockpit, snapping shut once everyone had taken their comm. The ship was sending out a new signal and a bunch of hover bikes spilled forth from a gaping maw on the bottom of the ship. "We'll have to work on coordination later! 미안합니다! Sorry!" With a few switches pressed the thrusters roared to life and the mech leapt from the rooftop. A thick crimson beam traced a line through the air and shot a rider off the nearest hoverbike as she did so. This was Nexus Buster's first big assignment; she'd better make it count...
”Some virtuous leader you are,” Kyoko frustratedly muttered under her breath, irritated not only by Ahoeitu’s response, but his apparent indifference regarding part of the matter as a whole. He seemed much more interested in getting a chance to fight the evil extraterrestrials than possibly going out of their way to save more lives. [break][break]
Unfortunately, Kyoko didn’t quite have the voice to speak up against him. He was their leader, after all, and a loud and stubborn one. Taking a bull by its horns could leave one impaled if they hadn’t the fortitude to defeat it. [break][break]
Kyoko pouted her protest and crossed her arms. [break][break]
And she wasn’t quite sure she had the strength to speak up any more against him. [break][break]
After the shadowy-girl had made her appearance and Kyoko greeted her accordingly, the tanuki-heroine focused her attention to the newly broken down door. [break][break]
”Kaiden!” [break][break]
Oh no. Only now did it come back to her. Kaiden was on their team! She remembered discussing their recruitment with him on the day they trained together. Her emerald eyes blinked in surprise when the brunet let out a series of curses that were quite uncharacteristic of a sweet soul like him. [break][break]
”Kaiden! Are you okay?” [break][break]
Kyoko rushed over and stood before him, looking up at the hero with concerned eyes. [break][break]
”Oh man, everything going on made me lose track-- I would have given you a ride if I remembered. Gomen-nasai!” She apologized, giving a brief bow. [break][break]
However, Ahoeitu seemed to pay no mind to Kaiden’s complaint and completely blew past them. Kyoko gritted her teeth with anger. ”Ugh! Does he care about anyone who’s not himself?” She grumbled to Kaiden. [break][break]
Kyoko didn’t say anything, but she vigorously nodded her head to Sun-Hi’s points. She didn’t enjoy Ahoeitu’s hasty plans regarding how to best deal with the alien threat. It sounded like it could easily put many citizens’ lives at risk. [break][break]
Kyoko tippy-toed and received her communication device from Sun-Hi. ”Thank you, I’m sure these will help us.” The ninja-heroine said, speaking her words of gratitude. [break][break]
But there was no time to waste. Kyoko placed the device onto her ear while she recounted Ahoeitu’s directions. She drew out a ragged breath hesitantly. She had a feeling things wouldn’t turn out too well. [break][break]
”We’d better get to it,” Kunoichi spoke to Hellbird and Emote. ”Even though we’ve been relegated to B-Team,” She groaned, rolling her eyes. [break][break]
The wings that were once folded on Kunoichi’s back spread out their length. Kyoko leapt off the ledge of the roof and flew off towards their intended station. [break][break]
”Hmph. Standing defense? I can be much better than some measly guard.” [break][break]
As she was flying over the danger-impeding city, Kyoko threw out some of her seed down towards the ground. Her body began to glow a bright cyan as she focused her energy. These seeds germinated, creating quite a thick, sturdy, and spiny wall all around to enclose Uptown and separate the incoming opponents from the innocents nearby. Its florally looks were deceptive, it had the durability of reinforced steel. [break][break]
Kyoko just needed to keep focused. [break][break]
”Oi, Hellbird, Kaiden!” She shouted above the roars of oncoming machinery, ”I’ll stick close to the very beginning of the neighborhood. You guys should keep further away and deal with the incoming wave! I’ll support you from afar!” [break][break]
Still midair, with three seeds, Kyoko crafted a sort of chloro-machine gun into her small hands. She opened fire on any Haramite alien who strayed too close to the neighborhood. [break][break]
The same Jade eyes that watched the team below her darted to a door flying off it's hinges, with the last of their teammates walking in. Yelling obscenities about the invaders and Victory's choice of a meeting, most of the points she could agree with but she didn't voice it. Instead staring at him for only a moment before her eyes moved to their leader who was stating his plan, which Vivienne didn't see as very tactically correct. He wanted to bring the ship crashing down on innocents below and this only added to the volume of her scoff which was building from his response earlier.
"What a genius plan." Hellbird spoke aloud with the pungent scent of sarcasm lacing her tone as she rolled her eyes and turned to Sun-hi who was offering a counter to his orders. Chuckling at her subtly insulting his intelligence, appreciating her honesty and willingness to opt for a secondary option. This meeting was so far amusing, but off to a bad start.
Encasing the communication device in her shadow it would swiftly float from Nexus' hand and to Vivienne, placed firmly into her ear and prepared herself for the fight ahead. The hover bikes would be no issue for the three of them, well she had no idea what Kaiden could do but she was sure it would help nonetheless. So while Kyoko was flying off to make a seed wall, Vivienne aimed her hands at the rooftop and crafted two 7 foot tall flames, housing the eerie silhouette of what was stepping through.
Within a second, her pet hell hounds were walking through to the mortal coil with midnight black fur and serpents resting on their necks. Orange eyes looking to Kaiden and calmly walking over to him while their mistress showed a warm smile to her ally. "Need a lift? Don't worry, they don't bite."
With that one of the hounds would lower it's body to allow for their passenger if he decided to take it up, before leaping off the roof to join her in pursuit of their enemies. Claws digging into buildings to jump to and fro to keep pace with Vivienne who was soaring and answering Kyoko with a simple "Understood, guess I don't have to hold back huh.", blue fire coming to life around her hands.
As Kunoichi fired on the haramites to keep them away from her wall, Vivienne would begin hurling a series of searing projectiles that were hot enough to burn what they touched to ash. Explosions ringing out from contact with her hellfire magics as she swayed to and fro to avoid being blasted out of the sky. This would test all of her skills, and she prayed all that practice would pay off now.
A couple thousand lives to save a million more. That’s all Ahoeitu could think when Sunny responded to his plan. His rosy eyes bounced from one teen to another. Fortified stupidity enveloped them all, the kind that for all his power, he just wouldn’t be able to pierce. There was no point in starting an argument about how the careful way would always be the one most at risk of failing in situations like these. So he let it go with a hefty grunt. He didn’t even respond to the jabs at his intelligence. It’d be much sweeter to rub it in their faces when this all went wrong because they were too busy trying to save each and every person.
Though, he wasn’t going to just let his ego be poked at in such a way, especially since he was supposed to be the leader here, not her. So, in true man-child fashion, upon receiving a communicator from Sunny, he looked down at the device in his hand. A few seconds went by, and then he crushed it with ease, opening his hand finger-by-finger as the parts of the device hit the floor. “Like I said: give some kind of signal. I will see it.” He gave his team a demanding and borderline threatening glare, aggressively recommending that they listen to him rather than her without saying a word.
His speechlessness remained as the aliens poured out of the mothership, Ahoeitu ripping into the sky in response, aiming to shred through the assaulting aliens like a missile and enter the ship through the hole that the harmatites were leaving out of. He tore through several hoverbikes like a hot knife through butter, many explosions erupting in his wake as debris and shrapnel whizzed towards the ground below, but he didn’t care. Naturally, though, he began to slow down from all this. He was jumping, not flying after all, and as he lost momentum, he began to plummet. But he didn’t panic.
He turned as if he were getting ready to skydive, observing how they were piloting the bikes in his head, learning, analyzing, and locking in the motions before dropping like a sack of rocks onto the back of a hoverbike, its pilot swerving out of control from the sudden weight. “Have a nice flight, or some corny shit like that!”, he’d quip as he grabbed the alien by its shoulder and tossed it off of the vehicle. Now left to drive the vehicle, he looked at the abundance of buttons and mechanisms. He moved the handles as he had seen all the others do and then pulled a switch, the vehicle accelerating towards the ship now instead of away from it. In no time he was entering the ship with Sunny, but he hadn’t observed anyone use a brake, meaning he had absolutely no clue where that was. He was still speeding into the ship, frankly losing control as he decided to just give in to his recklessness and jumped off of the hover bike. The machine careened out of control, slamming into a pillar of the ship as the bike went up in flames immediately, officially compromising whatever element of surprise the pair might have had.
He had threatened the integrity of the ship, risking bringing it down, but of course he didn’t care. Instead he was more worried about the aliens that had shown up to combat himself and Sunny, rifles aimed expertly. “This welcome party is adorable, huh Nexus?”, Ahoeitu laughed, stretching out his arms, trying to project harmlessness as he spoke about the harmatites to Sunny like they were zoo animals. “Now I’ll feel a little bit worse about pounding your faces in!” He then bounded towards the extraterrestrials, not even thinking to keep some around for questioning regarding the layout of the ship.
Meanwhile, on the ground, Harmatites would rain down from the sky. While some would be knocked off by not only Ahoeitu and Sunny, but Kyoko and Vivienne on the ground, many more still landed. However, they didn't just start to randomly cause destruction. Instead, they split into smaller swarms, each one jamming strange metal, pillar-like devices into the ground that were guarded heftily. They would begin to glow at the very top, the glow slowly beginning to move towards the bottom of each pillar. There were three in total. It seemed that the aim of the game was, more specifically, terra-forming. It was up to the defense squad to prevent these devices from gaining full power, whether that be by taking the more risky route of destroying them outright or reaching the control panels on each device and shutting them down manually. If they failed, it'd mean the loss of many, many lives as the pillars would release catastrophic pulses of energy that would transform uptown into something no human was meant to live on or within.
[attr="class","monbody2"] This was nuts. Chaos. Dozens of flying bikes got past Nexus Buster as she tried to direct her shots in to them, but their alien tech was comparable to hers, they were well equipped to deal with a single mecha and most got through. But following behind the loose cannon that was Victory made her approach easier; he sent a hover machine careening in to what looked like an important support pillar.
"Can you not act crazy for five minutes? We need to work together!" Nexus Buster's speakers boomed in protest, a flip of a switch energizing the mech's deflectors. They'd flown in straight through the hangar and she was honestly surprised by how few aliens were in here compare to how many had buzzed out in to the streets. Just a straight invasion force, huh? Of course Victory didn't listen to her and charged off to start fighting spooky looking aliens. They opened fire on her and on the charging idiot with their laser rifles, but thankfully her barrier was pretty robust when it came to energy weapons! Nexus Buster roared as it rocketed forward, a spin of her cockpit sending a dozen of them scrambling for cover as the hulking machine kept pace with Victory.
"We need to find a console I can connect to, if I can get in to their systems I can turn them against them. Try not to break anything too important before I get a chance to look at it, muscle brain!" And as luck would have it, there was a pretty prominent console worked in to the big pillar... that he'd just destroyed. Judging by how structurally important it looked it stood to reason there was another one up ahead. That meant pressing on through a small army of laser aliens. Cool. "Help me get to that other pillar! And do not smash it this time!" Her voice echoed through the cavernous hangar, cutting through the alarms and alien shouting and gunfire. She even expanded her barrier field to include him, taking note of how each flash of hex barrier took off a sliver of power. Replenishment was holding steady but they had to work fast if they didn't wanna get overwhelmed!
Kyoko muttered to herself as she was still suspended in the air. She needed to keep a cool head were she to keep all of her constructs active and efficient. With her chloro-wall now up and armed, the tanuki-girl was manipulating a construct whose size was larger than what she was used to dealing with. But it was an important asset, nonetheless; it was the thing keeping these aliens from trekking any further into Uptown. It was their last means of defense if her allies went down. [break][break]
It was in her hands: she needed to keep these citizens safe with all her might. [break][break]
More Harmatites rained down from the sky, now installing some weird, polar-shaped machine into the ground. Kyoko didn’t know what they were but she didn’t like the way they looked. [break][break]
”Looks like something good to bust,” She muttered to herself before focusing on her energy. Sharp-ended vines jutted out from the wall she’d created. Like snakes, they slithered forward through cracks in the pavement before suddenly lurching upwards from the ground, attempting to wrap their way around one of the pillars. Some vines would try to pull the pillar downward with considerable force, others using their sharp ends to mercilessly pierce through the unfamiliar technology. [break][break]
If the Harmatite soldiers weren’t fond of Kyoko’s attempt, these vines would redirect their focus onto the bug-invaders, moving to attack them instead.
Sable easily burned away at the hover bikes in her path of ascension from the ground. Utilizing strong leg muscles to leap 100 feet into the air to get rid of any enemies she saw, even attacking them on her way to the ground to repeat the process over again. Her master watching with a proud smirk as she stopped firing off projectiles to look at the debris Victory was leaving in his wake, groaning aloud. Her right hand glowing bright and waving in front of her to send a corresponding flaming wave into the canon fodder; wearing it away into harmless ash.
"Well at least one good thing comes out of his irritatingly reckless behavior," Vivienne admitted, her flaming cloak flaring until it literally consumed her figure and took on the shape of a fire bird, "It makes me mad!" The hell themed heroines would glare at the enemies surrounding her, body shining like a beacon to draw their attention from Kunoichi who was attempting to destroy their device sneakily.
Vivienne was observant and knew how to do her part to help.
Delicate hand rising to her communicator, she would speak to her ally in a reassuring tone. "I'll distract them while you deal with... whatever that is." Flying off into deeper into the enemy forces while using her anger to fuel her power, the fire growing into a massive bird that destroyed everything it touched in seconds. Reaching high enough into the sky she caused the bird to expand in a massive omni-directional blast, leaving her simply floating without any fire on her person.
Looking around at the attention she'd drawn her body would suddenly spark back to life with blue fury, wings propelling her away from her ally; a blue contrail leaving a clear trail.
