"very well. the pink uniform and an assignment to the subterranean floors. also, you'll be recieving a weekly laxative treatment to help clear the constipation. should help clear out the bullshit" kalus replies evenly, rolling his chair over to a filing cabinet and retrieving a brown uniform with a pink apron stitched onto it, with buttons along the straps, giving the apron an 'overalls' effect before rolling back and giving it to tide. "prefered weapon?" he asks evenly, leaving eclipse to wake up slowly from the rather thorough smashing he'd recieved.

"...Not if you obliterate it....Or are immune to most snake based poisons..." Delta quips, still meditating. "..Sometimes vengeance is needed in the world. Without it, evil may go unpunished." Maka adds in.

Gunner hugs her, smiling.....before he tenses, and throws her out of the way. As he does, a hail of bullets rip though his chest. If Theta had still been there, she'd of been mince meat. With Gunner, his excess bulk allowed him to barely remain..mainly, in one piece. Stepping forwards, someone wearing a robotic suit of armor, its eyes glowing. "...Murderers. Both of you....How many people, innocent people, have both of you endangered, and killed?" It asks, angry. Gunner's reply is a low gurgle, as he stumbles forwards..and his final words are this. "..I knew...that...something bad..would of happened..." He says, before collapsing, looking to be dead. The unknown warrior changes stances, and prepares to take on Theta.

"Still, there's a better way." Asura says "besides, some people just make bad choices."

".........I'm gonna fuck you up." Theta growls. Looking at the warrior "you won't escape it."

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
Tide looks at the uniform, and them smiles at Kalus.
"You're funny..that's why when I do get strong enough to take on your entire race, if it ever comes down to it, I'll kill you last." he jokes..in his own way. He puts the uniform on, not minding the color pink, before putting the scraps of his armor on over it. "The Clone empire will send it over..." He says, and indeed they do..a large statue of Logar, made out of a strange self repairing metal, with a handle at the bottom.

@kishin asura
"He broke me...he humiliated me...just because he could. If he didn't become my boss after, I'd kill him..." Delta growls, not overly happy.

"You wish freaky beaky." The warrior says, before dual flame throwers on their wrists activate, and flames spurt out. The flames wash forwards in an immense wall, filling the streets.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

"......okay maybe it's be fine to kick his ass." Asura says

A beetle like shell cover theta's skin as she walks toward the flames "think that'll stop me?" She asks

[Tyki]

@supertinyking

tide's given the algorithms for a one handed energy blade which protrudes from his bracelet on command and was virtually weightless while far surpassing physical copies. When reporting for duty the next day at the gardens, having been assigned a room on the base levels with his taxes based on some form of leg collection rate with a turn in system for supplies depending on the number turned in over the minimum for monthly taxes.

"you the new kid?" a grizzled old sergal asks evenly, guarding the gate in a black uniform, other rather able looking sergals in similar pink uniforms to tide's standing in wait around the gate.

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
"........" With a growl, Delta's wavelength slowly leads to the Dojo shaking, as her anger builds. Maka sees this..and begins to focus her wavelength towards Delta, wanting to see what would happen after a while.

The flames stop, and out spews a blast of acid, aiming to dissolve Theta's armor in an instant, leaving her open to attack. The acid flies at exceptionally high speeds, leaving Theta no time to dodge....

The acid splashes against a tall figure, small craterous scars lining his chest. The acid turns to a mist, as the heat of his body turns it to a gas, making it dissapate.
"..You really think that bullets would be enough to stop me?" Gunner says, turning to face the mecha warrior. "W-what?! That should of tore apart your internal organs, you should of died from bloodloss?! How are you still alive?" They asks, taking some steps back. "......I learned from a wise man how to move my internal organs around, as to avoid such an attack." Gunner retorts. "..Then I'll make sure to turn you into a paste!" The unknown warrior replies, as they unleash a hail of pellets, two extremely large shot gun blasts.

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
"I guess. So, what will I be doing today....." tide asks, not overly enthused. His uniform still had the bits of his armor attached, giving it an odd patchwork esq look.

[Tyki]

@supertinyking

"bug hunts. they like to dig in from underneath and eat up the lower level plants that can't eat back... which is few now-a-days so they're mostly just a nuisance" the sergal replies, righting himself before opening the gate and taking out what looks to be some sort of pistol with a blue, crystalline energy cell behind where the chamber should be. The gate leads to an elevator which opens for the group of six as the 'leader' of the group asks "what you doin with that metal armor boy? you got yer energy shield. that'll protect you better" before tapping one of his buttons and dismissing a menu that pops up

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
With a quick burst of electricity, Tide's energy shield would falter. "My powers don't agree well with your tech." He replies, as he begins to move forwards, his fur turning golden, as he ran electricity into the ground, seeking out the bugs, and frying them in their dens. The other sergals were fine, as the electricity wouldn't touch them, not while Tide was controlling it.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

Asura watches closely as this happens

Theta quickly steps in the path of the bullets. Causing them to bounce uselessly off of her shell-covered skin "feel free to do whatever you want gunner." Theta says with a grin "just don't kill them."

[Tyki]

@supertinyking

he finds the energy to arch around an incredible amount of bug-like entities underground, the electricity frying some of the really small ones that were no bigger than small cars, however he could tell that there were much bigger ones further below them that only got pissed when he zapped them. After calling the swarm to 'come get some' they did so, and boy did they do so. "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO BOY?" the 'leader' asks furiously, readying his pistol as a good few dozen tank sized insectoids burrow up and charge the party, everyone readying their weapons.

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
Delta stands up, and quickly darts out, though a wall, using vector pad to fly across the ground rapidly. She lets out a roar so loud, the Sergals guarding the main gate could hear her arrival.

Gunner grins, as he leaps over her, and behind the mecha-warrior, kicking them forwards, opening them up for an attack from Theta.

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
Tide grins, as he gets into a fighting stance. His wide grin would almost reek of madness, as his eyes, and fur begin to flow gold. He looks back at the captain with a destructive evil glee in his eyes. "I made this fun!" Tide says, as he throws a rather concentrated blast of lighting thought the floor, making it glow, as it'd arch into one of the large insect's legs, making it explode in a gory mess. As one reached him, his energy blade with find itself into its eye, as Tide forces lighting though it, striking its nervous systems directly. It would be a long, and hard fight..But Tide and co would prevail, no one dying. Tide would be brought near death by the end of it, as he'd be the vanguard, the first line of the fight..but he'd walk out of he caves, victorious.

@supertinyking

".....we should go after her." Asura says

Praying mantis arms burst out of theta's back and pin the warrior's arms to the ground "all this fighting can make a girl like me pretty hungry." Theta chuckles as she slowly makes her way to the warrior

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura

"...Do you think we'd be able to do anything?" Maka asks, a bit...on the disturbed side. "..So many things have gotten stronger than me...." She says, looking down.

The warrior's chest plate would burst open, revealing a large laser weapon. Gunner would dash over, like a cannon ball, slamming into Theta, knocking her out of the way as the immense blast would rip though the air. The mecha warrior would stand, his bare chest showing a glowing purple orb in the center. Slowly the outer armor would break apart, and reveal their attacker...Kilroy, the android. His body would be busted up, his human visage shattered. His once glowing soul, replaced with a damaged energy core. "......my god..." Gunner says, as if he knew who Kilroy was.

[Tyki]

@supertinyking

he finds that as soon as he kills the first, another two burrow up to fill it's place and so on and so forth until they were pressed back to the elevator, the captain, as his men would call him, shouting them into action as he lays down surpressing fire, being the last one onto the elevator as tide is dragged in, one of the creature's legs through his stomach and another sergal in a similar state with his arm, though, he soon rips it out and injects the cyan mixture. "what in the FUCK were you thinkin son? didn't your daddy teach you not to piss off mole-roaches? cause if he didn't i'm sure as HELL about to whoop some ass in his place" the captain say furiously, obviously seething at tide's stupidity, having to be held back by one of the less injured men to stop him from beating tide's ass before he presses a button on the control panel, an alarm sounding to lock the basement down while tide is looked after by a few others of the group, the leg being removed from his stomach before he's injected with the cyan mixture, vaguely reminiscent of a stimpack.

@supertinyking

"I believe we can." Asura says. Putting a hand on maka's shoulder

".......do you know the guy?" Theta asks "because I think I know the guy."

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
"My dad was a cloning machine.....you tell me if he told me about your planet's bug problem." Tide says, cracking his neck as he stands, looking a bit more buff, and his fur having a slightly golden look to it naturally. "....Sorry." He then admits, looking away. "..I'm..not from here. I showed up yesterday, at the third annual celebration of the clone city's construction...so forgive me not knowing the planets flora and fauna."
