Many Meetings (Anyone)

Ooc: I don't care who joins or how many join as long as you are fairly decent writers, you may use how many characters you want. A good opportunity to develope some of your intertwined character stories. Join whichever side you want or be on your own side, dosn't matter. We may stay in one spot the whole time, or we may take our battle around the world. Lot of freedom in this one. I'll be using Dark and Surge and possibly more later on, found in my sig.

Bic:

Rattling, banging, and clanging was all that was heard as Surge left his ship with the many tools in his strong arms. With another final clank he dropped the tools in front of his work spot. He wiped a bead of sweat from his brow, he had been working on his precious ship for several weeks streight and he still had much more to work on. He bagan welding away at some of the more deeper injuries on the vessel. He didn't get very far before he smelt a faguely familier smell. Machinery, but not from his ship. This was very odd. He turned around to see the object he sensed. "What in Grim's name?"

"Well, well, well." The machine smirked. "If it isn't the monster named Project 39?"

"Who are you?" Surge asked, perplexed.

"I am the first of the Destructive Assasin Robotic Killers, Dark. Igner sends his regards." The machine raised his weapons.

"Igner?"

"Farewell." The machine lunged foward.

OoC: Mind if I join? I'm going to keep this a "machinary" battle and use M.A.D. mechanism.

BiC: "Heat signatures approaching." M.A.D. swiveled its eyes around, searching all over.
Suddenly, sounds could be heard from some distance away.
"Audio signals detected. Approaching with caution."
M.A.D. scuttled over to where the two warriors were duking it out.
Project 39 (whom I will now refer to as 39) struck Dark with one of the tentacles, causing the mechanical menace to fly back.
"Your stronger then I thought," muttered Dark.
"Mechanical Being: Identified as Bounty Hunter." With Missiles ready if it required it, M.A.D. scanned the other, "Unknown Being. DNA Modification detected. Mutant. Chances of Unknown Being succeding are greater then 50% possibility."
Suddenly, the Missiles were launched, connecting with Dark.
"Gee, thanks, i guess..." muttered 39, "but I do not require help."
"M.A.D. does not deny your skills. However; M.A.D. always increases chances of winning to 100%, regardless of ability. You are not a threat." M.A.D. proceeded to open up his missile slots again, this time pointing at 39.
"I am not afraid of some puny toy," said 39, and he launched a tentacle at M.A.D, who responded by rolling out of the way, then launching the missiles.

Ooc: I don't know, I had a realy weird feeling you were going to join this battle Dodongo.
*Twilight music plays*

Bic:

Surge was surprised, he never thought he would see a machine again for as long as he lived. And now two in one day. It was unbelievable. The first one metion Igner, he wondered how the machine knew of the walking lizard from his time? The only reasonable explanation would be that this machine was from his very time a dimention. But these thoughts would have to wait for he was in the midst of attacking the melon like machine. He brought his lightning sword to the robot's legs, they looked thin and easy to snap. But when his sword made contact, it didn't do much but a scratch.

If M.A.D could laugh, he would be laughing at Surge's failed attack. But since he can't laugh, he decided to use his soul cannon instead. The ball of blue energy fired from the metalic heap and lodged itself onto Surge's neck. "Magic depleteing."

Surge looked confused, he didn't use magic. "Heh, you have much to learn about me." Surge smirked, the blue orb on his neck begining to get annoying.

Surge thrusted his arm at M.A.D.'s hull and a burst of white lightning shot from his wrist, blasting the magnet backwards to the ground. Surge was about to gloat and start a long monologue on how great his power was, but he soon found that his mouth was full of dirt for his face was placed directly in the sand. The cold metalic feeling on his back gave it away, Dark was standing on his back.

"Disapointing, I was expecting you to be more of a chalenge." Dark smirked at the behemoth.

Surge smirked back, "Likewise." He replied, then his tenticles from his back flung out knocking the machine called Dark to the ground.

OoC: Read your thing. Oddly, no-one seems to want to battle me anymore. At least, not to the end.

BiC:
Dark fell to the ground whilst M.A.D. evaluated the situation.
"Battle opponents at equal strength. Begin opponent deletion procedure." M.A.D. shot a lazer blast at Dark, who leapt out of the way.
"So much for the help..." muttered Dark.
"M.A.D. does not take sides. M.A.D. fights to ensure that chaos and destruction prevail, as my masters wished, thousands of years ago." M.A.D. opened up more missile silos and blasted Surge this time.

Surge raised his fists to blow the missles out of the air with a lightning blast, only to be a little too late. He fired lightning from his fists, they hit the missles causing them to explode, but a little too close to him causing the blast to knock Surge backwards into his star cruiser, leaving a dent. "You're going to pay for that!" Shouted Surge.

With out saying anything M.A.D. fired another round of missles at Surge.

Surge couldn't dodge them, they would do too much damage to the ship, but he couldn't not dodge them eith or he would most likely perish. "I do hope these are heat seeking." Surge ran out of the way, but to his dismay, they flew past and blew up into his ship, sending pieces of metal in all directions. "NOOOOOO!!!" Surge screemed staring at the new doorway into the ship. He returned his attention to M.A.D. "I'll use what's left of you to repair this!"

M.A.D. was about to unleash another attack, but detected a hull breach in his back. Dark swung around the machine with his grapling hook sticking in M.A.D.'s back. He flew through the air toward Surge.

"You stay out of this!" He shouted just before being greeted by a pair of feet to the chest, knocking him back into the soft grass. Oh so soft.

Ooc: *Waits*

M.A.D. landed on his feet.
"Weapon: Grappling Hook. Extreme Caution should be taken."
M.A.D. dodged to one side as one of Surge's tentacles attempted to crush him into metallic dust.
He opened up two panels, a rocket launcher firing one way, and his Soul Cannon the other. Surge leapt out of the way as the spheres flew past, and Dark leapt the other way, barely avoiding the large explosion.

Dark and Surge, without saying a single word, darted around in a circle and dashed back at M.A.D. from his front and back. Oh how they would make a violent sandwhich. Thet both knew that if they needed to fight each other, this M.A.D. character would have to be out of the picture. They were mere meters away from their target when they realized they had underestimated this machine. In a quick movement, the MAD robot wheeled out of the way just in time to see the beautiful collision Dark and Surge had created. They both were sent tumbling in opposite directions, totally flabbergasted.

Surge's chest was throbbing as he stood, but Dark appeared to be perfectly fine. "Impressive!" Surge chuckled in approvement. "Most impresive!"(ooc: "But you are not a jedi yet." lol j/k)

The Melon shaped machine now understood which of the two warriors were more durable. It turned to Dark, locking its next target, but making sure that Surge didn't leave its sights.

OoC: Ok, ok, ok! I vill post!

BiC:
MAD launched the missiles at Dark. He leapt out of the way, just as a massive explosion caused him to go flying.
I should concentrate on taking out the maniacal menace first, thought Dark.
"Purging enemy from memory!"
"What the heck do you want anyway?" Surge was becoming very angry.
"Reply irellevent (sp?). Conserving energy for current task; Splitting you like an atom!"
Before Surge could reply, MAD had launched some lazer cannon blasts.
"Can't you think of anything original?" Surge said, whilst diving to one side.
"System Error! System Error! Red Alert!" Dark, who had finally discovered MAD's weak-point, had slashed into his back.
"MAD operation error! Primary Systems offline! Secondary systems initiating! Activating MAD retreat protocols!"
"Get back here!" Surge launched himself as MAD began to scuttle away.
"Survival takes priority over victory!" Before anyone could stop him, a tyre had inflated down his middle. It began to spin and he went zooming off into the undergrowth!
"Should we go after him?" asked Surge.
"I don't care," Dark turned to Surge, "now t is time for me to do what I came to do!"
"What is that?" Surge noticed a tiny white tile on the ground.
"Umm..." Dark wasn't too fussed. Surge picked it up, it began to flash red and making bleeping noises!
"That can't be good," before either of them could reply, it blew up, smashing Surge and Dark in opposite directions.

Ooc: Remeber, more people can join at any time. They don't need to be machines.

Bic:

Dark tried as hard as he could to stand to his feet, but one of his legs were blown clean off and lay about three meters away from him. He sighted it and popped his arm forward and fired his grappling hook. Direct hit. The grappling hook grabbed the leg. Like a zipline, the grappling hook returned the leg in a blink of an eye. Thankfully it only popped from its place like a cheep action figure. After snapping it back in, Dark made his way after Surge who was now in hot pursuit of M.A.D.

"Come back here!" Surge shouted after him. "I'm using you to rebuild my ship or at least my ride home." (His ride home he was refering to was another portal.)

OoC: Time for someone from this era to step in. Hope you don't mind a weakling like me coming in.

BiC:

Soledad was walking through the forest, glad to get a break. He was in this village just to relax, not to work. He had had enough killing for now. As he was strolling along the path, something rushed across the path. "What was that?" he thought to himself. It looked like some kind of melon. But melons don't scuttle like that. Then some strange creature rushed after it. "What is this?! The only thing that could make this even more strange would be some kind of robot running after..." then Dark went across the path. "Nevermind." Soledad knew he should stay out of it, but this was too interesting to miss.

He rushed after the chase, tracking them easily through the underbrush. He jumped into the trees and cloaked himself so he could observe this strange occurance. It's not every day you see a running melon, an alien, and a killer robot. Soledad stopped once and hit himself. Nope, he wasn't dreaming. He continued following Dark deeper into the forest. They eventually caught up to Surge, who had lost track of M.A.D. in a small clearing.

"Now I have you!" Dark exclaimed.

"Fine then! I'll use you for the repairs. You obviously know my home world" Surge replied.

Dark rushed at Surge while unsheathing his daggers attempting to catch Surge off guard. Surge dodged it, and fired energy bursts at him. They hit directly and Dark went flying off. He recovered quickly and paced around Surge.

Soledad was watching with bated breath leaning forward to get a better look. He lost his balance and fell out of the tree, cancelling his cloaking. He got up at stared at the two figures who stared back in disbelief. And just then M.A.D. came back out of the underbrush after repairs. They each stood at an edge of the clearing. No one was sure what to do. Dark took the chance to rush at Surge, M.A.D. rushed at Soledad, and Surgre prepared himself to intercept Dark.

OoC: Looks like a free-for-all.

Ooc: Cool, don't worry. I'm sure Soledad will be a good match. I'll let the bigger of the Torkoals post next. Why did you change your name anyway, king dodongo? I liked King_Dodongo better.

Edit- Wait, you are king_dodongo, right? lol

Soledad jumped out of the way of M.A.D.'s attack. "Grappling hook: launch" M.A.D. announced. Soledad twisted while in-air, but the hook caught his arm. "Reel in, prepare to destroy enemy" M.A.D. called out. A canon on the back of the machine popped out and aimed itself at Soledad.

Dark rushed at Surge and tackled him to the ground. They rolled on the ground, Dark trying to stab Surge while Surge was trying to get a shot at Dark. Both attempts were unsuccessful. Eventually they detatched and got back up. Surge fired a few energy bolts at Dark, who jumped aside. They smoldered into the ground creating scorch marks. Surge fired again, and once again Dark dodged. Surge tired of firing, so he rushed at Dark, who intercepted him. They were locked in battle, rotating around each other and slowly moving. Then Dark kicked out at Surge and sent him flying into M.A.D. just as it was charging its canon.

Soledad was released from the grappling hook and fell to the ground gripping his arm in pain. He pulled out his short sword and ran at M.A.D. looking for an opening. He slashed and stabbed but only hit metal. This shell was impenetrable, at least with the weapons he had. M.A.D. popped out a sensor and pointed it at Soledad. "Analyzing threat. Threat level: Medium. Proficient fighter, battle-hardened, stealthy, but still not aware of technology. Asessment: easily disposed of." M.A.D. then turned and opened up a panel revealing an energy canon. Soledad jumped away as it fired. As the laser flew past his head he could smell his singed hairs. The beam flew past and hit a tree, causing it to fall to the ground. Soledad jumped into the trees for safety and drew his dagger, readying his mind. M.A.D. scanned the area and found him again, firing another laser. But this time, it was at the base of the tree. The tree fell, and Soledad had to jump. The process repeated. M.A.D. would take down the tree and Soledad would go to the next.

Dark advanced at the fallen Surge. He jumped, aiming to land on Surge. At the last moment Surge rolled away barely avoiding Dark's mechanical legs smashing into his face. As he got up and readied himself for attack, trees began falling everywhere. The clearing was beginning to heat up, and Surge and Soledad felt it. The machines sensed it, but paid little attention to it. As Surge prepared to attack, Soledad cloaked himself to hide from M.A.D. Then Surge fired, not at Dark, but at the surrounding area. Dried wood and the grass below ignited into a blazing inferno. Soledad saw it happening and ran away. "Cannot detect enemy. Heat interferring with sensors" M.A.D. announced. Dark still saw Surge, until he ran into the fire. Dark scanned around for him, but only found M.A.D. "You are not my objective" he thought. Dark then ran into the forest, away from the scene of the fire. After scanning the area, M.A.D. followed.

"Move defective machine, I don't need you." Dark spat, if he could spit that is.

"Who are you calling defective?" M.A.D. Fired a beam cannon that exploaded right near his feet sending him soaring through the air and crashing into the ground a few meters back.

Dark pointed his wrist forward and launched his grapling hook into M.A.D.'s hull and ziplined toward him, "Out of my way!" Dark shouted. In his other hand he activated his sword and brought a slash to the other machine as his zipline ended. He twirled in the air, landed a meter or two past the melon, and spun around to face it again.

"Target Locked." M.A.D. announced as a panel opened up for a missile barrage.

Dark swore as the projectiles made contact with his torso sending him backward.

"Critical hit." M.A.D. gloated, "Prepair for finishing blow." The psychotic slowly walked toward the smoking robot.

Soledad was glad to be rid of M.A.D. He had never seen anything quite like this before. "What are these things?" Soledad wondered.

"They're machines," Surge said, walking up to Soledad, "I'm not sure where they come from exactly. But I know at least one of them are from my time."

"Your time?" Soledad questioned, looking at the height and fiercness of this character.

"It's a long story." Surge chuckled. "Want to help me finish them off?" He smiled as he reloaded his blaster.

They had stopped on a cliff overlooking a vast plain. It was covered with forests for miles, but then eventually broke off into fields of grain. Soledad noted that for further use. It's good to use your environment. He looked back and saw the smoke rising from where they had come from. The machines would be here soon.

"Well...." Soledad hesitated. He didn't want to get invovled, but he couldn't just pass this opportunity by. His curiosity got the best of him. "Alright. I'll help you. But tell me, why are they after you?"

"I don't know. The one from my time seems to be hunting me. He mentioned Igner...he was supposed to be second-in-command. And that would mean that something happenend to Slag." All the while Surge was trying to explain it all Soledad was looking bewildered. "Oh, right, you don't know them. I'm from the future, or another dimension, or something. All I know is this isn't my place. I was sent here in my ship through a portal, but they're both obviously destroyed." He motioned to the clearing they had come from. "I've been trying to rebuild both devices and get back to my time and my rightful place helping Slag rule."

"Well, I may not understand it all, but I'll help. But what about that other machine? Do you know anything of its origins?" Soledad was curious. This alien, or whatever it was, wasn't even from his time. But that was believable. Or would be if he was positive he wasn't dreaming. His arm throbbed. This wasn't a dream.

"That thing is a mystery to me. It doesn't seem to be from my time." So it seemed the alien didn't know anything about his apparent foe.

"What is your name?" Soledad asked. "I'd like to know who I'm working with."

"I go by Surge" he replied. "And who are you?"

"Soledad. I've never experienced anything like this adventure. So how will we defeat those abominations?" Surge flinched at that word. He had heard it many times directed at him.

"We will fight harder than them. We can do it."

"I don't know about that. I am only of human flesh." Soledad didn't think he could match up with these adversaries. They were powerful.

"You will do fine. Just fight with all you have and we will beat them." Surge's words were reassuring, and he felt more powerful. Then there was a rustling behind them. They turned around to meet their oncoming foes.

Ooc: WOW! That was beautifully done! I honestly don't think I could have said it better myself!

Surge began to whisper over to Soledad, “You take the melon; I’ve got the one from Igner.” Surge smirked as he began to strafe around the two machines that apparently had come to some sort of alliance with each other as well. “You give the signal.” Surge requested silently.

They stood there for several seconds, waiting for the other side to attack first. There was no sound except for the soft howl of the wind. In the blink of an eye, all four of the warriors jumped forward into action.

Surge’s cuffs glowed white as he fired bolts of lightning at Dark. Dark returned by fired his grappling hook directly into Surge’s chest, squirting blood down the front of him.

Soledad swung his short sword as it fruitlessly bounced off the melon’ hull. The melon shaped droid tried shooting him with missiles, but lost site of him because he was cloaked. M.A.D. couldn’t pick up a signal.

Ooc: Meh, it’s short.

OoC: Thanks for the compliment! That means a lot coming from someone like you. Now don't I feel special?

I'll wait a little bit to see if Bigger Torkal will ever come back. If not, I'll just edit it into this post.

Ooc: I don't think he's coming anytime soon.

OoC: Hmm...seems like that Torkal isn't coming then.

BiC:

Soledad dashed around M.A.D. without being seen. He pulled out his dagger and stuck it into the ground. M.A.D. picked up the movement of the dagger and fired a canon at it. Soledad dashed into a tree, still cloaked. The machine could not detect him, it only scanned the dagger.

"Threat level: Low. Inferior technology." As M.A.D. opened a hatch to destroy the small blade, Soledad controlled it to bury itself in the robot's internal machinery. "ERROR! ERROR! Hull has been breached! Defensive mode activated!" M.A.D. attempted to close the hatch, but the dagger was still buried deep inside with only the jewled hilt sticking out gleaming in the sunlight. Then Soledad jumped out of the tree and, taking his sword, began slicing at the wires inside the exposed hatch. "Expelling threat! 3...2...1..." and then the dagger was pushed out by a gust of air from somewhere in the machine. "Destroy threat! Destroy threat!" was all M.A.D. screeched as it turned toward Soledad and fired a barrage of missiles. He dodged and went back into the shadows.

Surge wrenched the grappling hook from his chest without flinching. "It's just a flesh wound." He laughed. It was all show. It really did hurt, but not enough to incapacitate him. Dark ran at Surge and drew his blades, slicing down but catching nothing but thin air.

"You will be destroyed and Igner will rule!" was Dark's battle cry.

"What happened to Slag? How did Igner get into power? What has happened while I've been here?!" Surge demanded of the robot.

"Why should I tell you? You won't live long enough for the information to matter!" Dark sneered as he charged again brandishing his blades.

Surge whiped out his sword and locked blades with the fiend. Sending volts of lightning through his sword, he electrocuted the machine, rendering him temporarily innactive. Surge grabbed him about the shoulders and threw the hunk of metal somewhere far behind himself.

Surge sheathed his sword and walked toward the fallen android. Dark was lying right next to the edge of the cliff, a tall cliff that Surge would say would be about a fifty meeter drop or so, but he could be over exadurating.

The Incredible Hulk marched forward and stopped in front of the dark machine, seering in electricity. Surge reached for his blaster and pointed it down at his foe, "Go to Hell." He pulled the trigger, and the machine was catapulted down the cliff into the forest below.

Soledad was having the same luck. M.A.D. was having a lot of trouble with this stealthy warrior. It even considered retreating once or twice, but it still had a couple good tricks up its metalic sleeves.

As M.A.D. was being beaten by Soledad it was still computing a way to beat him. "Fire!" it screamed as it launched another barrage at nothing but air. Soledad lured it to the edge of the cliff. It fired another misslie, but he deflected it with his sword. M.A.D. charged at him, hoping to knock him off the edge. Soledad lept over the melon-sized machine and it blew past him, falling over the edge.

Soledad landed and looked at Surge, who had defeated his foe also. "That's the end of-" he was cut off abruptly by something landing on him. M.A.D. had climbed back up the cliff. As Soledad pushed it off of him, it caught his cloak, dragging him along the ground towards the edge. Just as he was about to fall off, he grabbed a rock, holding both the machine and himself with one hand. M.A.D. began painfully crawling up his back, loosening his grip. With one last gasp, Soledad let go from the pain and he and the machine began tumbling down toward the trees below.

OoC: Sorry it's short, I'm a little drained of creativity right now. My next one will be a little more.
