[IC] HCL 2: Twisted tinkers' triumph

[supertinyking]

@Tyki
For now, there was calm within the sergal empire....but would they rise to the challenge set before them? Would they manage to help turn the tides against the newly created monster that was created? We'll see very soon.

Asura grins and moves out of the way "my my. It seems the mutt has some fight left." Asura sneers "let's see how you use it." He gets into a fighting stance. Knowing he wouldn't face drac head-on. But drac didn't and asura planned to keep it that way

"I-I must be imagining things..." theta says. Hugging herself "it can't be...."

The heat and brilliance of the flaems and pinnacle star above Alucard's hand were searing and powerful. Mithias tried to shield himself somewhat with this arms as he squinted and bared his teeth. Then, The wave of fire and starlike heat exploded downward, giving the vampire not so much as time to gasp as it engulfs the place where he had just been standing.

Fire rages, the forests around them illuminate the field with their blaze. Alucard would look to see absolutely nothing where Mithias had just been, and yet, his senses would tell him that the two-souled vampire hadn't moved. Alucard would be somewhat confused, looking at the place where he could swear Mithias still was. Getting closer, the only hint still visible would be a slight crack in the ground.

Suddenly, the ground itself rumbled and burst open behind Alucard. Mithias landed a swift kick to the fiend's mid back, sending him flying some distance. "I'm not going to kill you! But you are seriously ticking me off!" Mithias lifted his clawed hands into fists. "Your power fails to impress me, creature. I have morality because I am more than an element of nature, or someone's slave. Now stop this mayhem, or I am going to give you the beating of your life."

As he goes to speak, Drac closes the distance, and keep the pressure up, in a rage. With a flurry of strikes, he tries to rip apart the Kishin with a hail of strikes.

".............No way." Gunner says, moving around to where she would of saw him, if she could. He then pokes her, her cheek feeling warm. "It's as if she could feel me...." He says, and she could very well hear him.

[Wraithblade6]

@TykiEclipse shrugs. He looks over to the pile of papers. "That for me? Let me see what you've got here. I'm rather good at this." he starts walking over.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

"Whoop. Missed me. Oh so close. Almost but not quite. Almost had it." Asura continues as he dodges each punch. But then one finds its mark and sends him flying. To drac's shock and possible distress, the person who gets up isn't asura. But someone else

"I bet you enjoyed that dear." Eruka says with an eerie grin "did you enjoy causing me pain?"

Asura grins as he watches from a safe distance. He knew this confrontation would happen. He just didn't plan on using the madness wavelength. But this was personal. And asura didn't want to kill drac. If anything, he planned on breaking him

[Tyki]

@Wraithblade6

eclipse finds quite alot of files at the terminal under 'needs to be done' with a small email address on a post-it note attached to the screen for the turn ins though he barely gets started on it before carl recieves a call on his bracelet, calling for EVERYONE including the help to mobilize for war.

"looks like it's your lucky day lazy, someone decided to destroy our allies and left a gigantic portal open telling us where to go and you're invited to the fight under my command. get your gear and report to the rec room in a minute. that's an order" carl says evenly before heading out, a locker in the corner suddenly unlocking with 'eclipse' written on some tape on the front.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

Theta looks in gunner's direction "....."

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
With a single strike, the Illusion begins to break apart, Drac's hand deep inside Eruka's apperent stomach. "...I watched you die..I held you as you passed from this world..." He says, before punching it in the face. He looks around, seeking Asura.

"...........Holy crap." He says, before poking her face repeatedly, causing a rapid warm feeling in her cheek.

[Wraithblade6]

@Tyki
Eclipse blinks a moment, and goes to his locker confusedly. Then, he realized. Why hadn't he felt it before? It hit him like an unholy hammer now, from outside, in the very same city his friend were in! "The goddess herself directs me!" Instantly, the white suit he had been wearing vanishes and is replaced by the armor he had previously. His holy sword appears in his hand. "There is no time for the Rec room! I must stop this unholy scourge!" Eclipse looks like he is about to bust through a window any moment.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

"Who could forget that?" Bug asks. Standing beside drac "I still can't. To think you'd kill your own family. Some people these days." Asura darts from hiding place to hiding place. Chuckling silently. He was gonna have soooo much fun with this

".....is someone here?" Theta asks. Genuinely frightened

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
"...They killed you...they took you from me.....just like your mother...." Drac says, punching the illusion. He looked around, breathing faster, rage building even more. Asura could even feel it...a soul consumed by rage. A man, who has lost everything..and would take everything from so many, before he was destroyed.

"......Ok...focus....on my normal form...." Gunner says, as he sorta shows up, like an image filtering though static. "....Theta, can you see me?" He asks her, worried. He floated, above the ground, a phantom.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

Bug disappears. And in drac's head, asura's voice says one word "who."

Theta smiles "is....is it really you?" She asks

[Tyki]

@Wraithblade6

he finds the locker to contain rather large rifle that seems to be powered by a blue core built into the stock with a bipod at the muzzle end of the stock, as well as what appears to be a terminal for his bracelet, and upon depositing it, it adds an authorization algorithm and an algorithm for something called a 'stasis shield' that seems to be intended as mobile cover of some sort. Before he can jump out his window with his new gifts and reprogrammed bracelet, he's dragged off by his next door neighbor and taken to the rec room by his shirt collar, being deposited at the back and made to stand in line on a step stool so he could see over the massive sergals around him.

"alright, listen up men. Our allies, the clone empire, have been attacked and destroyed. one of our generals was also decapitated and had her head shipped to the queen. we've been ordered to mobilize as a response to the threat. the Hive is already en route with the high general, queen, and staff but we'll be boarding transport vessels by captain-ship and dropped to the ground to support the air forces in whatever has wrought all this destruction. listen to your captain's orders and you'll be just fine. fight well men, die better" one of the larger, more grizzled sergals says, obviously the sergeant in charge of the block. Eclipse is then swept away with the rest of the men in his squad, being a good dozen strong including himself and the captain with him regulated to the 'heavy' position due to his rifle and mobile cover ability.

"alright men, we'll be dropping in five. make sure your guns are ready and you've got the ammo you need. good luck" carl says evenly from the driver's seat before taking off.

@supertinyking

While drac was busy with kishin and co, an armada led by a frigate suddenly portals into his dimension, troops being dropped en mass to the ground and opening fire on him as well as taking up positions around him, their laser weaponry rather devastating as small, corvette ships begin buzzing around him, hitting him hard with their main cannons while the frigate seems to be charging up it's main gun, eclipse being somewhere in the middle of this, his rifle showing that he had a good 10 shots per canister but each shot seems to be quite devastating should he actually fire the thing, burrowing through terrain to hit drac hard enough to rock him back on his feet

[kishin asura]

@Tyki

"He's mine." Asura's voice rings in their heads

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
"....They thought I went mad...Tsubaki....she gathered them.....she tried to destroy me..Lisa...Bug....they tried to defend me......Eruka had..passed on...during the fight...I...I..AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!" Drac roars, punching randomly, random chunks of the ground exploding.

Gunner hugs her. "...Being dead is...weird." He says, floating.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

"Goddammit not this shit." Asura mumbles to himself. He honestly expected Tsubaki to be a little smarter than that

"I'll take your word for it." Theta says. Hugging back

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
"They nearly killed me...they nearly killed me....then....then... Lisa...my baby girl...." Drac says, as he collapses to his knees, holding his head. "AGGGGGGGGGGG! MAKE IT STOP! PLEASE, MAKE IT STOP!" He screams, the madness doing just as Asura would of thought. It began to break him further. "I HEAR THEIR VOICES! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!" He screeches, thrashing about.

[kishin asura]

@supertinyking

Asura smirks and withdraws his madness wavelength. His work was done..........and yet he felt empty. His success wasn't as fulfilling as he thought it would be.

[supertinyking]

@kishin asura
Drac slowly returns to what little sanity he had left, seeing now his body being peppered with attacks from the sergal army. His rage flaring, he unleashes a huge energy blast from his hand, decimating a large amount of their ships, a few withstanding the attack that had stronger shields. "COME GET SOME! SHARE MY PAIN!" Drac roars, as he prepares a large blast, aimed at the largest ship.

"......Soooooo.......how do we go about doing much? I mean, I can just follow you around in spirit form..but I'm sad to say my days of piano playing is over." Gunner says, grinning a bit at his rather bad joke. As this happens, Saeid appears, having teleported randomly, as to of escaped certain death at the hands of Drac. ".......Oh fuck, a ghost and a wraith...." He says, seeing the two before him.
