Orange Team Finale

The orange team have a good hold of things. The shields keep strong and the attacks aren't overwhelming. Hopefully they do not get complacent because on the afternoon of the sixth day there is a roar as ships come towards them.

A pulse is fired from one of the ships and the shields go down, systems plunging dark. They have enough time to scramble to ships, those who have been working on the shields can start getting them back online, before the battle commences.

(OOC: This is a play your own monsters scenario, feel free to make up dramatic errors for shields for the void treckers to fix. Enemy soldiers will mostly be in ships but if you feel like having any epic one on one battles go for it!)

"We need fighters in the air now!" Well as of yesterday, but same thing. "And we need a ground crew."

Because she doesn't believe for a second they'll stay in space. Oh no, she's fully expecting at least some sort of ground-based trouble. Well, station-based, but details.

Eventually, her gut's proven right and both her and Princess are in battle with the unlucky sods who've landed on the station. Eva, fiercely determined to do her best, hangs back while the clefairy's eyes glow pale pink as he pins one of them with a Telekinesis -which makes it impossible to miss and attack- before unloading a Moonblast or three into them.

It's not pretty or nice when it hits, but she can and will deal with the fallout later. For now, she has people to either defend or fight alongside.

Garrett was no pilot. He didn't even know how to operate a car much less a spacecraft. And though he was a good shot it was one thing to aim a bow or gun, an entirely different matter to aim a ship's armament while careening through space. He would remain on the ground, thank you, where his footing was sure and his aim steady.

He didn't really want to be a part of this fight but there wasn't much getting away from it at this point. Besides, he'd already helped fend off a few soldiers what was a few more? Least he wasn't hungry anymore...

Garrett spotted Eva from his vantage point above--on the ceiling to be exact--and followed her line of sight to the pink creature fighting the enemy soldiers. It looked cute but it was wrecking havoc on the enemy. Eva had done Garrett a solid by helping him earlier and he intended to stay in her good graces lest he be outed for his monstrosity.

Garrett sighted down the blaster he'd borrowed and let loose two shots. The blasts hit an enemy behind the clefairy as it dealt with another opponent.

If she's surprised, she doesn't show it outside a grim nod. There'll be time for thanks later. Right now, they need to stay alive long enough to dispatch the enemies.

Thankfully, a lifetime of dealing with monsters, of street battles, of the battles and fights in the wild, of honing survival instincts means she's on the ball as far as moving out of the way of shots aimed at her, and Princess doesn't seem to be bothered by any that hit him.

Well, glance him because dispite the glowing eye trick, he's not staying in one place for long, and he's fast. Then again, he's getting to go carte balance on these guys and show exactly what a fairy can do. A Bite to the neck area. A Mega Punch here, an Icy Wind there. A Moonblast in the face-

"Eyes!" It's short, sharp, and very much an order as Eva throws up an arm to cover her eyes, squeezes them shut and turns her back on things. Sorry, Garret. She'd warn you, but she doesn't want to warn the enemy about the so very much not battle legal, literally blinding, Sun-as-a-camera-flash Flash of light that's coming.

The good thing is it's only a second or two and the enemy will be blinded, or at least spots in the eyes for the next minute.

The shout had Garrett frowning, the intensity of battle slowing his mind, not really used to working with others in the first place the brief warning was lost on him. He started to glance at the monster to see what she was ordering but that turned out to be the absolute worst idea. Garrett hissed in pain as he was blinded from the flash of light.

The plus side was he was on the ceiling and most of the enemies that knew he was there were already dead because he'd hit them with a bolt. The minus side was that he had eight eyes and while the scorpion ones tended not to care about light for vision so much that was really fragging bright and he wasn't certain whether his spatial eyes were working either or not. He was too busy blinking his main two eyes to notice.

Which also meant he was easy prey while he hung upside down without consciousness for the battle stick raging beneath him.

Thankfully for Garret, nothing manages to target him.

Though that might be because of the thumps hitting the ground as Princess rips through the stunned soldiers with brutal, monstrous efficiency, and by the time he can see again, there's a mass of bodies behind Eva as she blinks sheepishly up Garret.

"Sorry about that... It's all clear now though. Though I think he might have gone overboard..."

That's a lot of blood and gore behind her and all she can say is a 'bit overboard?'

Well, that was a horrid sight to open his eyes to. Thankfully, Ryslig had prepared him for such sights. He swallowed noticeably but let his eyes shift to Eva. No worse than his own mess, just in a larger scale. He could ignore it. He was full, he didn't need it, so best not to look and be tempted anyway. Stupid monster traits.

"Just a bit." He responded to Eva with a wry smirk of the lips. "At least I wasn't the only one that flash worked on. Good job." Highly efficient. Garrett hated all the killing but as long as it wasn't him, he would get over it. They attacked first, it was their fault for it. The people here were just defending themselves.

The arachne hopped down from the ceiling and landed like a cat, twisting mid-air to drop onto his feet. "We should probably clear this out," he said. "And prepare for the next attack."

"Well, he is a fairy and I am his human..." Eva shrugs, eyes tracking to the fairy who is thoroughly unrepentant.

Also rather gore covered, but details Eva's not exactly thinking of right now.

"We should. Maybe salvage whatever bits of tech we can in the time we have?"

That was assuming there was anything useful left. Um.

Garrett looked at her with a small smirk to show her what he thought of that: that his mind was already there and she had just read his mind. "Always," he quipped shortly.

The sneak thief was a obviously a pro at finding useful and salvageable items from limp bodies. He moved quickly over the dead and found plenty of things to scavenge from them despite the soldiers only having bare necessities for their battlefield operations.

maybe a wrap?

As long as they find something, Eva really doesn't care what it is.

As it is, she gets to work moving the looted bodies out of the way into some semblance of a neat pile. It's hard work, and some of them are messier, but if Eva's squeamish, she doesn't show it.

Not because she's not, but because there's no time to waste.

yeaaah

[personal profile] themasterthief 2020-05-19 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Garrett got a good haul from the bodies before helping Eva pile them out of the way. Touching people wasn't his forte but dragging unconscious (or dead) bodies didn't seem to bother him in the least. It was as if they were just heavy objects to him.

Once that was done, he shared some time with Eva showing her what he picked up if she showed interest and organizing his pockets while they waited for the next attack. It wouldn't be long with the way the day was heading.

He readied his bow when the first signs of new visitors making their way towards them occurred.

Telli saw someone coming up behind Eva without her or Princess seeing and moved before she thought. Her cane arced through the air, the bottom half falling away seconds before a bright green blade made of energy sprung from the handle Telli still held. It pierced straight through the body of the man who'd tried to attack Eva and he crumpled where he stood.

The blade hummed as Telli removed it from the body and took up a fighting stance, her lightsaber angled to deflect any incoming blows or shots.

Laser sword in cane. Cool.

She'll deal with that later. There's maybe two enemies left that need to be dealt with before anything else, and life and death battles are not the time to talk. But at least it's not a street battle and Princess is the only pokemon throwing around Infinity Energy.

"Mo!" It's short, sharp, and very much an order to her monster. Princess is moving as Eva thrusts her hand out towards the closest one, wings aglow with pale, silvery light as he leaps into the air. At the same time, glowing pink energy forms a rough sphere between his paws for a few seconds before it's hurled at the target, the pokemon landing with a skid as he wheels around for another attack, eyes already glowing again as he attempts to pin the other enemy in place.

"Anytime you want-"

The last target shot wildly at Telli and she used her lightsaber to deflect the shots, sending them away from anyone close by. She approached as she did and once within reach she used the butt of her weapon to stagger the man and then reached for him with her free hand. As soon as she touched skin a faint shadow seemed to reach from her hand into her opponent and the bit of skin visible appeared to almost age and wither.

Her opponent gave a strangled gasp before crumbling dead to the ground. The shadow drew back into Telli's skin and as it did it appeared as if the cuts and scrapes she had from constant fighting healed over.

"I believe that's the last of them."

The aging effect is noted but it's far from the most alarming thing she's seen. If anything, the look in her eyes suggests it's downright normal, more so when she notices the healing effect.

Interesting, but ultimately, not the weirdest thing or most alarming thing she's ever seen.

"Good," Eva says as she crouches down and roughly rouns her hands through Princess's fur to extract any and all viscera the clefairy might have. "So. Laser sword in cane?"

[personal profile] shockinglycaffeinated 2020-04-21 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
She powers down the lightsaber and picks up the half of the cane that had fallen away, snapping the two pieces together so the weapon is once more hidden.

"It's called a lightsaber in my world, but yes. It's quite a handy disguise for getting weapons into restricted areas."

She walks over to Eva and Princess and kneels next to them. "Are you both okay?"

As one of those who opted for ground support through this whole thing, Persephone has kept one eye on the sky and the other on whatever simple machine someone taught her to use. Space battle renders her powerset rather useless. But this--this she can help with. Her hair started out today as cropped short. Probably was never destined to end that way.

"Give me a second!" Persephone raises a hand and around the shield, twisting vines start to grow, curling around themselves, leaving gaps that flourish with leaves and on occasion, sharp thorns.

Curufin is back. He spends some time helping to get power restored, and then he runs to the hanger, where he finds Eva and the others.

"I can do either," he says. "I can take my fighter up again alone or fly with someone. Or I can stay here and guard the hanger from Empire troops trying to enter via cloaked ships."
