IC: [Ril]"Probably Ta-Koro," he replied.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: Your name sucks. What the heck are you barricading? Yourself? I would've thought that your name was Barricade because you were barricaded in cells so many times.
IC: [Ril]"See," said Ril. "Silvery here agrees with me. Pick something better than Barricade, like Vallum."OOC: Which according to Google Translate, is Barricade in Latin.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: Or you could use something much less 'Wordy', like 'DANG'.OOC: Barricade in chinese.
OOC: Dang? That's block. Or barricade if you use it as a verb.IC: [Ril]Ril turned to stare at the other Toa."Dang?" he said. "Yong is much better."
IC: ArgentumArgentum: No. Dang is far better! Look at the emphasis for the movement! The move your barricade, to block all the fools running at you! It has movement! It IS movement!
IC: [Ril]Ril smiled."What about Antaro?"
IC:Sisk took the liberty of tapping Lei on the shoulder. Today was definitely one of the weird kind, or he simply hadn't gone out enough. "Big-excuse me, but is this much-like what you ever-deal with everyday?" he asked her.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: What about Baichi?
OOC: ...Cool dude? Seriously?IC: [Ril]Ril turned to face Argentum, an eyeridge already raised."Let's stick with Barricade for the time being," he said.
IC - Kyju - FightingStudying his opponent, he noticed he was fighting without much power. As a kick was brought to him, he took a chance to take it down.Swatting down the kick, Kyju thrust his own foot out in response.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: Its pretty meh.
"You mean the fact I'm covered in nature and have been for so long I've forgotten what color shade of blue I am, random people collapsing out of nowhere needing our help, or said random people arguing about their given names?" Lei asked. "The first one is pretty common, the second seems to be happening more frequently as of late, and the third one... well it's first for me at least!""You are not fine until I say you are." Maya chided the water Toa. "Honestly, wandering around to the point of exhaustion and seeing things in these woods. I would stim you but I think the fact you're seeing things means your system has had enough and needs sleep to right itself. If I weren't worried about further complications I'd put you under."
IC: ArgentumArgentum: I would say that she's fine when she's alive. Oh look. She's alive. She might be dying, but you can save her. So she's fine. Why do women always overcomplicate things?
IC: OnuzekHe walked along with the rest of the beings, careful not to disturb the sleeping Ga-matoran on his shoulders. Indicating the Toa of Water he said, "This is the second time Onuzek has found Water-Toa."
"Unlike you, I'm a qualified Field Surgeon." Maya retorted at Argentum. "And you're being too simplistic. I've seen plenty of soldiers die because they insisted they felt 'fine' only to collapse and go into shock requiring resuscitation mere seconds later. I could lop your arm off and you'd insist you'd feel fine but the second I showed you your arm no longer attached to your shoulder, the psychological trauma would cause you to faint. It would only get worse if you were bleeding profusely.""Considering how many hearts I've ripped out and showed to their owners while I crushed them in my fist I can vouch for that." Lei said lightly. "I remember one Toa down while I was at Rockwall who claimed he could feel no pain or fear. I opened him up like a tin can and pulled his still beating heartlight free from his chest and made him watch as I crumbled it to dust in my fingers. You should have heard him scream and weep like a baby." Lei giggled. "Muuuussssiiicc!" She flounced around the group humming happily to herself not disturbed in the least about what she just said.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: You've met him before? I mean, *Ahem* her? As for you marines, the most simplistic thing I can say back to you is the fact that you're woman. Of COURSE they'd be injured in a warzone! But this isn't a warzone! This is a forest! And the Toa of Water hasn't gotten into death mode for so long now that obviously, she's fine. Gosh! Women - Always have stupid logic.OOC: BB Sleep. Unless u guys r quick.
IC: Onuzek"Onuzek has. Kyju and Onuzek were sparring and we saw a toa hurt under branches. We brought her to hopsital." He worriedly at the ga-matoran who wass currently humming. And floating around the group. "She is scary," He said rather quitely.
"Men, always have to be so ###### illogical and hateful. Am I right or what girls?" Kalama asked."Pffft. I agree 100% Kalama! Just because we're cute and pretty does not mean we're air headed bluebonnets!" Lei high fived Kalama who was given strange looks."What?" Kalama asked."You're male." Kali reminded him."Well I am a guy but that doesn't mean I have to be a MALE about it. Can't a Matoran be secure enough in her gender that she can bash her own with her friends without getting the third degree?""Preach on brother! Girl power! ATTICA! ATTICA!""Lei do you even have a clue what that means?" Nuraka asked."No but I'm having fun so I don't care!""Well that's typical Lei for you." Hotu said. "Life's all a big game to her.""And I'm still winning Hotu!"
OOC: ^WHAT THE HEEECK?^ Seriously, that post is beyond akward. XDIC: Hajia, Ta-KoroHajia sat at a small table in one of the less-respectable inns in Ta-Koro, ignoring all the eyes watching her. Drinking her large mug of "Beverage", She glanced at the other customers, who quickly looked somewhere else, not meeting her gaze. Draining the cup, she sat it down, and studied the crude map in her hand. As she sat there, two of the rougher looking customers at the bar began to talk. "See the girl over there?" "Yeah." "She's the most proftiable thing i've seen today." "Yeah." "We'll follow her out." "Yeah." Obviously, one of them was smarter than the other.Hajia finished reading the map and folded it up before tucking it into her belt. Walking over to the counter, she got out the required widgets and handed them over, all the while ignoring the two thugs watching her.Heading outside, Hajia put on her cloak. As soon as she was out the door, the two thugs followed.
OOC: I. Regret. Nothing.IC: "Problem." Juno said from the front."And what problem would that be Juno?" Kalama asked."Gate is closed." Juno said thumbing across the chasm to the gates of Ta-Koro."Sorry ladies and gentlemen." A nearby Guardsman said. "We've had a jailbreak and we've closed off the gate to prevent them from escaping.""Well drat." Kalama said before thinking for a minute. "Is one of the side entrances or something open?""They're probably guarded but you're a Marine unit. They might let you through.""Good enough. Thanks.""You're welcome sir.""Come on girls. We gotta go around."
IC: MiritalaWell, now that they had gotten confusing again, it didn't make much of a difference if she introduced herself or not."I... my name is Miritala," she stuttered. Not much else to say. Not much else she remembered, anyways.
IC: OnuzekHe looked down at her, "Onuzek's name is Onuzek. This is second time Onuzek find Miritala in dead-burnt-forrest."
IC:The Le-Matoran, who had hung back quietly after having the answer from Lei found himself chuckling at the scenes playing out before him. Maybe it was just because he was from Le-Wahi, but the Marines struck a chord in him somewhere and he found their company to be quite enjoyable. After the business of nearly getting killed by them had been resolved, of course."If you well-carry that attitude you've half-won all your battle-fights. I like that." he mentioned to Lei.
IC: Miritala"Oh, yes I remember you," Miritala stated. Then she laughed at the slight irony. "Well officially hello, Onuzek."
IC: ArgentumArgentum simply followed the marines.
IC: OnuzekHe smiled, "Onuzek says hello, too. Is Miritala strong enough to walk now?"
IC: [Ril]"This is madness," the Toa of Fire muttered as he walked along with the others to the side-entrance. "I wonder who tried to escape anyway."
"HAH! See Hotu! I AM EEENVEENZAB-MMMPGH!" The bigger Matoran tackled her smaller sister over muffling her."Are you TRYING to get yourself killed Lei?" Hotu asked. "You KNOW what saying that invites!""A horde of hot smexy Le-Matoran that cater to my every whim?" Lei asked."No!""Pah! You heard him! I could be Queen of the Island like this!" Lei scampered up a nearby burnt tree. "HERE ME LOYAL SUBJECTS!" She planted her javelin in the half rotted trunk like a flagpole. "I HEREBY CLAIM THIS LAND IN THE NAME OF LEITOPIA! BOW BEFORE YOUR QUEEN AND RULER!" She pointed at Sisk. "Except for you. You get to come up here and be my hot manservant and consort."Hotu and Kalama looked at each other."On three?" She asked."Nah, let's just strike."The two heavies charged and tackled the tree at exactly the same time. After years of being charred to death and now rotting, they easily sent the tree toppling."WHEEEEEEEE!!!" Lei yelled as the tree when over. As it hit the ground Lei rolled free before springing to her feet. "TAHDAAAAAAA!" She announced before giggling and bouncing on her toes, clapping her hands. "Again!Again!Again!""And this is what we put up with on a daily basis." Nuraka said rolling her eyes."At least it isn't boring. I could watch this all day." Maya said."True, there is some entertainment value to having lower enlisted around." Nuraka looked back at Ta-Koro. "So what do we do while we wait for the gate to open back up?""Moi votez fer gutten thiz gungk off'er moi." Yuni said gesturing to herself. "Thay moight hit usz thank'n we're Rahee ar summat loike diz an' not let usz in.""True. If this were an inspection I'd have handed out demerits left and right for your sad appearance." Kalama said."You're no better Kalama." Kali said. "You look like you went and crawled around in a campfire.""Technically I had a campfire dumped ON me.""The demerits still stand."Kalama just stared at Kali before picking her up and hoisting her over his shoulder."AGUH! HEY! PUT ME DOWN THIS INSTANT KALAMA! I'M WARNING YOU! PUT ME DOWN OR I'LL DRINK MY NEXT FIST OUT OF YOUR SKULL! KALAMA PUT ME DOWN NOW!""Dunk the XO! Dunk the XO!" Lei yelled scampering between Kalama toward the coast and back again before getting to far ahead of him."DUNK! DUNK! DUNK!" The marines picked up Lei's chant."SO HELP ME I'LL SEE EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU DEMOTED IF YOU DON'T GET ME DOWN NOW!"
IC:"Your much-hot manservant and consort-friend is a bit little-lost here..." Sisk remarked from behind Lei, standing back behind the Marines. It sure looked like they were having fun. He was too, watching from the sidelines. But he definitely felt weird.
"What's there to get lost about?" Lei asked. "We're going down to the coast to throw the XO in the water! Come on! She's going to be so miffed! You don't wanna miss it!"
IC: OnuzekHe followed the group.OOC: Woah I wrote a lot there.
Edit: OOC: Going to be gone for about an hour.
IC:"Well-alright, I'll come-watch you have splash-fun." Sisk replied with a broad grin. "Much-fun to see if Marines can sky-fly by themselves." he added with a wink.
IC: [Ril]"Maybe the higher-ups would have to give me a promotion for staying sane in the face of madness," the Toa of Fire muttered. "I'll come watch anyway."
IC, Kinvex: "Here we go again." Kinvex raised his spear and shot electricity at Utu.
IC: ArgentumArgentum: Women logic: Dumping the executive officer into the water will not get you a demotion. Whats the heck?He tagged along.
IC: [Ril]"It's rather easy to understand women," said Ril. "Just go ask Kalama for advice."
IC: ArgentumArgentum: He's a hybrid matoran. That makes him half-female, so I guess it isn't too hard for him.
IC(Matu):Matu was walking in the forest when he heard something.It didn't sound like anything that was alive,but it was roaring.He cautiously walked through the charred forest,trying not to make a sound.*CRACK*.He stepped on a twig.Whatever the thing was,it heard him.He stepped a little closer,kanohi disk launcher activated,and spear in hand.He tripped.*SPLASH!*He couldn't see,but he felt something cold against his Kanohi mask.He tried to swim to shore,but he couldn't,the force of the current was too strong.He was being carried away by the water...Then,he fell into uncontiousness....OOC:Matu has fallen into a river,and not knowing how to swim,he was drowning-fast.Not being able to breathe(c'mon,BIONICLES HAVE to breathe-it's been proven in the storyline and posters before!),he went uncontious.Now,Matu's uncontious body is going downstream,all the way to Ga-wahi,where you will find him next on his quest of knowledge!-CDP
IC: [Ril]Ril paused in mid-step, his expression turning into one of horror as he realised the implications of Argentum's words. He whirled around to face Kalama, an unreadable expression on his face."Are you male or female?"
