Dragonball: Future Prospects

Sodius' eyes widened as the massive energy beam was directed at him, the sheer force of the attack astounding. Behind him, Silic was still struggling to stay afloat, and the only thing between the injured brother and the beam was a tired Sodius. Bracing himself, the Namekian prepared to counter attack when he heard his brother call to him. 'Move! I'll be fine!'

Panicked by his brother's words, Sodius almost didn't move, but in the end relented. Silic, energy already charged and ready to attack, met Fourteen's beam with one of his own, brilliant blue light clashing with red and violet, the display breathtaking. Focused on his task, however, Sodius charged at Gwen, preparing an Impact Wave of his own. As the last of Silic's energy drained away, the crimson beam inched forward, coming nearer and nearer.

Meanwhile, Glass was busy dodging the wave of energy Fifteen had propelled at him, narrowly avoiding the powerful attack. Heat from friction in the air scorched one side of his cloak, the burnt tatters obstructing his movement, and forcing the Guardian to rip the piece off. Breathing heavily, Glass watched his opponent's movements, barely keeping track with his eyes. 'She's good, really good.' Flaring his energy, Glass met the charge with one of his own!

"Show me what you've got!" Fist reared back, the two would meet over a field of stone and lava, their physical might clashing!

Hahah, sure :^) I'll be closing any possible applications after this though, sorry if anyone else was interested! I will be checking with my other two players before anything's definite though.

Zacharias watched with interest as the scary seeming girl finished her battle, using an impressive Astonish through its own Fire Spin. Deciding it was worth talking to her, Zach walked up to where the girl was standing, before freezing a few yards behind her. A chill ran up the teen's spine.

'W-What is this? Why am I so nervous all of a sudden?' Looking around, Zach couldn't see anything out of place. 'Is it just in my head?' He wondered if his Pokémon could feel the same thing, but decided against it. Glancing at the girl once again, the young man decided it might be safer to wait a while, and instead walked over to where the Pokémon healing station stood.

Taking his Pokémon back, Zach heard the next match being called to begin. 'The Swinub girl is fighting, and the guy with the Magnemite? I wonder if he has any other Pokémon to battle with. This'll be interesting.' He left to watch from the side lines, hoping for an interesting fight with lots to learn and think over later. Glancing at the two Pokeballs on his belt, he wondered if he should've trained more before jumping in to a tournament.

Despite his better instincts, a grin tore across Glass' face. His own battle had been exciting so far, testing the abilities of a foe he knew nothing about, and at least for now, relatively consequence free. Clenching his fist, now raw after its brief contact with lava, the Namekian was impressed with Fifteen's display of strength, the sheer size of the earth she lifted enough to dwarf the pair.

'How does that even stay together?' Ignoring that question, he allowed instinct to take over, dropping into the almost hypnotic state of a desperate fighter. Glass saw an opportunity with the attack, and he took it. Throwing a number of ki blasts into the earth, a cloud of dust was thrown up as the Namekian clamped down on his energy. With a burst of speed he charged from the cloud of dust, and prepared himself for the inevitable attack of rock. With any luck, at least he'd be closer now.

In the skies, Sodius looked around, sensing for his brother. He found his twin split in two, one near death and the other not much better off, a battered body with barely energy. "Pull yourself together, Silic!" Slowly, the two floated together, combining back into one. The end result wasn't too pretty.

Silic, now exhausted, fought the blackness at the edge of his vision. He had already spent a huge amount of energy between battling Vera and regrowing a limb, but the Multiform and subsequent attack had completely drained him. Physically, his muscles were weary, though getting better as air now coursed through his lungs. "I'm not doing to well. I might have room for one more attack, if you can pull something together. I'm about to pass out, though."

Thinking for a moment, Sodius nodded as he turned to his two targets. Down below, Fourteen held her sister in her arms, an emotion he wasn't sure of playing across her face. "I'll see what I can do." He too was feeling spent, his energy spent on that attack taking a lot out of him though. The amount of damage was certainly surprising, he hadn't expected an opponent on Vera's level to be so harmed.

Ki surging through his weary body, Sodius charged at his target, knowing the now burdened Fourteen would be vulnerable for at least a moment. All he needed was one chance. Nearing the pair, he launched a brief series of straights and kicks, before Eye Flashing. A single opportunity, Sodius tried to grab the cyborg to give his brother a clear shot.

Sorry, been busy all day with family stuff.

I'm 100% down for some down time, I love getting drama and chemistry going between characters :^)

It's awesome seeing so many people interested in this game! While I'd originally intended for this to be a small group, if my current players are fine with it, I can accept all three of you after you submit your character sheets to me. If this happens I'll probably be looking for a Co-GM as well.

In the midst of his dive, Glass was forced to dodge erratically, avoiding the numerous energy attacks Fifteen launched at him. As he neared, the android slipped into the lava, no doubt hoping to avoid the attack, but after a moment of thought Glass decided to try something a bit out of left field, continuing his charge. Rearing his fist back, Glass slammed his attack into the lava, before quickly forcing out his ki.

"Impact Wave!" Molten stone flew upwards all around. The energy rushed from his attack, pushing out into the lava behind the force from his punch. Combined, a massive surge of fiery rock would push out in the sea, like a massive object had just been dropped in, and Glass hoped Fifteen would feel that wave like a normal human would feel being hit by a wall.

In the distance, Silic fought to free himself from the clutches of Vera. His already drained lungs struggled to pull oxygen in to no avail, and from the woman's words he knew exactly what she was planning. Blackness on the edge of his vision, he was practically helpless as they appeared behind Sodius. Now desperate, he saw only only thing that could possibly redeem the situation.

Feeling his conscious split, Silic utilized the Multiform to create a copy of himself, next to Vera. It acted instantly, jumping behind Vera and using the Mystic Technique to wrap its arms around the cyborg, using its other half and Thirteen as a shield. "Now, Sodius!"

Hearing his brother nearby was a surprise, but he listened nonetheless. The massive amount of energy now condensed, he released it in a massive, roiling explosive burst. "Super Explosive Wave!" Raw ki flew off his body with tremendous force, enough to hopefully damage everyone nearby, even his brother. Reaching out with his senses, he searched for his brother's signature desperately, hoping he hadn't killed his twin.

Dragonball: Future Prospects

Still out of breath from the kick to his midriff, Silic was gasping for air as he saw Vera launch her attack. Struggling to move out of the way, the Namekian barely made it out alive from the blast, but the radius of the attack was enough to catch him as he fled. His foot, from just above the ankle down, was missing. Silic fought the urge to scream in pain, and instead focused that emotion into sheer will, forcing purple blood and a replacement limb into place.

Now truly out of it, Silic fought to stay conscious and continue his battle. Knowing he would have to play to his strengths, he began charging energy in his hands. Silic rushed towards Vera with everything he had, releasing his energy as he neared. "Explosive Demon Wave! HA!"

Sodius floated there, blinded by an explosion just meters in front of him. While no harm was done, the Namekian could tell something was up, and entered a defensive stance in anticipation. 'There's no way that was a mistake.' His thoughts rang true as the little girl charged through the previous explosion, a knife-like weapon drawn. Seeing she now had the advantage with her weapon, Sodius desperately charged ki to his eyes, generating a brief, blinding flash. He then began gathering energy, hoping to release it all in an explosive wave around him if she continued her assault.

Eyes narrowing as he pressed his attack, Glass saw the strange shielding around the android form. It was almost enough to make him stop the attack, only the tell of cracks in the armor making him continue his draining assault. His target's response, however, was surprising. Something instinctual made him avoid the massive splash of lava, despite knowing it wouldn't hurt him badly if it landed on him.

Flying higher and higher, he was now far above the battle field. He could see his sons struggling, and knew they would be at their absolute limit soon, maybe even beyond. Knowing only one attack that could possibly break down Fifteen's defenses, Glass began charging a massive amount of energy in his fists, storing it for what was to come. Now ready, the Namekian began a dive down towards Fifteen, hoping to land a single hit on the android and put her down for the count.

Dragonball: Future Prospects

Glass fought the urge to step in and switch his opponents, knowing that the Room gave them all a chance to have consequence-free match ups. Still, knowing that Silic would be fighting Vera didn't fill him with enthusiasm. Choosing instead to focus on his own opponent, Glass prepared for his own battle, making sure to keep an eye on the vicious looking tail, and try to concentrate his energy as subtly as possible.

Nearby, Silic wasn't sure whether to cheer for a chance to finally prove himself, or weep at having to battle against the cyborg who had almost wiped the floor with someone far stronger than himself. As the battle began, Silic dodged to the right, avoiding the energy blast, only to run into Vera's mighty kick! Spittle flew from his mouth, as the Namekian tried to gather his wits once again, and quickly gathering energy, launched a close-range Dodon Ray, hoping to force the android away from him.

Dodging narrowly above and to the right of Fourteen's energy slice, Sodius charged in to try and deal with the cyborg at close range. The sword may look powerful, but that wouldn't matter if he could get within the weapon's guard and get some strikes in! Nearing his opponent, he launched a powerful series of jabs at Fourteen's head and body.

Seeing that his opponent wouldn't be making the first move, Glass decided now was the time to try one of the new moves he'd learned. After spending enough time in the Pendulum Room and with the Turtle School, it was impossible not to pick up. Dropping into the proper stance, he quickly gathered energy, hoping to just force an opening in Fifteen's stance. "Kamehameha!" A beam of brilliant blue energy shot forward, aimed at the center of Fifteen's mass.

Dragonball: Future Prospects

Nodding in agreement, Glass led the way into the clock-filled room, a single pendulum swining high above in the middle of the room. Before anyone could say a word, however, the room began to melt away, reality seeming to distort around the six of them. Replacing the once plain room was coated in red, heat quickly filling the air. Below, red-hot liquid rock and metal flowed freely, sulfuric fumes spewing from the ocean-like body of lava, and the black atmosphere would be choking to a normal human.

"Interesting choice, Popo. The birth of Earth?" Glass and his sons looked around, taking in the brutal landscape around them, astounded at the contrast with this and the Earth they knew. Popping out of his amazement first, Glass floated into a more defensive position, in front of his sons. The other pair soon fell into position behind him.

Powering up, Glass smiled at his three challengers, knowing this would be a true test to all of their strengths. "Ready?"

Pokemon: Our World

Yeah, yours will be the last of the first round. After this is Gooble's Swinub vs. the Magnemite trainer, and then (probably) our match! Or we could have the next round scrambled, if anyone wants to fight someone in particular.
