IC: ArgentumArgentum: You should've electrocuted the water while it was falling, and find another way to make Tahuva yank it down. He'd be electrocuted and all that other stuff.
IC: Dino laughed. "He WAS electrocuted! It just came in two waves!""Waves? Was that a pun on the water?"Collective facepalming ensued. Tahuva turned to Dervian. "Your turn to pay.""Karz..." Dervian bought them all food, even Argentum.
IC: ZyckelThe Toa entered into the doorway of the bar, quickly walking up to the counter to his favorite seat."I need the strongest stuff you've got, barkeep."Not long and he would be drowning his rage.
IC (Madrihk, Mevi):"We're going, then?" Mevi said."Yes," Madrihk answered. "No one else has showed any interest in the ILS, so there's no point in staying any longer."Mevi was carrying a shoulder bag with a few supplies she had taken from her home, and the Matoran had made certain to take a Ta-Koronan guard shield with her. She also had her halberd.With no further ado, Madrihk, Zand and Mevi left Ta-Koro, on the path back to the Island Liberation Squad's new base by Lake Pala.OOC: Moving to the Le-Wahi topic.
IC(Tairel)
"Well, then both of you are brutes I guess," replies Tairel before leaning over the body of Riaril. He begins the healing process as his "master" instructed him. They wouldn't let Riaril die. She'd be back to full health in no time, he was sure of it.-Mef Man
IC - Sucogu - StreetsSucogu trudged down the street. The last few hours had been horrid. First, he'd fallen in a pit of quicksand someone had kindly left sitting around. That had taken awhile to get out of.Then, he'd been knocked towards a river of lava by an enormous dome that came from nowhere. He hadn't fallen in, but he'd burned the top of his forearm. His ears hurt like the measles after someone had started screaming in all caps. One guy had jumped through fire, and now he had a nice shoulder burn.Wind from nowhere had knocked him into a rock formation, giving him a gash over his left leg. Plus, he still couldn't find Hau. He hoped he'd come to the right place.Or maybe he was too late? Maybe Sucogu wasn't a good enough teacher?
IC: Takimoc lifted his scalpel up one last time above the nose. All dead flesh on Riaril's head had been cleaned away with barely any cuts to show.He frowned while resetting his sights on the last burn. They'd need Moriika and Faerulo to help with healing and covering up the injuries. And last he'd seen them, they were guarding Nakumir's door."Someone go to Nakumir's room and get Moriika and Faerulo," the Ta-Toa ordered. He started to cut away the charred tissue above the toa's heartlight.Hau jostled, trying to get past the others. He still had no idea what was happening--And then the toa caught a glimpse of a wounded and apparently lost Sucogu outside the door.Hau charged towards the door without a second's thought. Sensei!
IC:After a few more minutes of conversation, Angelus finally realized that the guard he was talking to could be out at any time."I've got to go back over there," said Angelus with a small grin. "I've got an appointment with a Ta-Koro Guard that I really can't miss. You should probably lay low in case the Vortixx comes back."He walked back over to where he was waiting for Tuara and began practicing with his sword again.-Teezy
IC(Tairel)
"Got it," Tairel says; not wanting to quit the healing process, but hopefully being away for a few seconds wouldn't be detrimental. He rushes toward the room and knocks on the door. The Ta-Toa calls the two out before returning to Riaril and contiuing to activate his mask.-Mef Man
IC: Moriika and Faerulo saluted and grabbed their medical gear. But upon following Tairel, their faces turned grim.Moriika began to sort through his armor pieces. He'd have to weld some more onto Riaril's kanohi and chest armor to make them whole once again.The master of herbs pulled out his clothespins and stuck them on his nose. Within seconds, Faerulo was sorting through his herbs to make poultices.
IC - Sucogu - Finding HauOr, maybe, he had said something that made Hau leave? He'd said things that weren't wise before. Or maybe Hau had just found him. He put aside his thoughts, throwing in his best smile that said sarcastically, "Oh, hey, you're late."The toa smirked."Where have you been? I was about to start elemental techniques." in truth, he'd been asleep. He hadn't had any intention of training at that point. In fact, he was going to send him for coffee. But now, he was all to happy to see his friend. A lesson formed in his mind as he spoke.
IC(Balaythah and Tairel)
The Ta-Matoran turns to watch the others leave to attend to someone or something. Balaythah turns his attention to the sleeping Matoran; making sure she was okay.Back outside, Tairel continues to heal whatever he can and hep wherever he can.-Mef Man
IC: Hau put his fist inside his palm and bowed. "Defending the hospital with Krayzikk, master. The mad Iron toa returned with mercenaries in an attempt to kill Krayzikk and the chief doctor; however, the mercenaries betrayed him, and he was last seen flying away after being impaled multiple times, blasted with sound and electricity, and punched in each kidney."The toa saluted and bowed once more. He kept his eyes down in a sign of respect and regret. "I accept all responsibility for being late. Please forgive me, master; the attack was too immediately important."
IC - Sucogu - StreetSucogu nodded through the explanation. Did he know any iron Toa? Well, he did know a Krayzikk. He felt almost proud- no, he felt very proud."I commend you." He wished he could say something more. But his lack of words fit his disgustingly bored facial expression. He fist-and-palmed in turn, also bowing."It was justified. You did well. Are you prepared to return to the academy?"
IC: Hau gave a slight nod at Sucogu's last words. "Yes. There is nothing more I can do to aid in the aftermath of the battle."However," the toa added, "I wish to leave a note for Krayzikk explaining this decision. May it be done before we travel back?"
IC - Sucogu - Street"Which part of the aftermath? Was anyone harmed?" he inquired.
IC: Hau nodded again. "Several of the mercenaries were hit and rendered unconscious, one after surrendering...By accident," he said, keeping eyes dropped. "I have also heard that the chief doctor may be hurt, but am unsure to the status of this wound if any due to my shortness preventing me from seeing her body when it was surrounded by others."Nakumir's lids opened to greet the rising of the sun. Brilliant pink clouds of ash rose on the horizon. Aah...What a beautiful dawn...She looked around and smiled at all the presents she got while sleeping. The Ga-Matoran was glad to have so many friends.But before she could get her violin to practice it, Nakumir began to feel an acute sense she was being watched. She turned her head to see Balaythah looking down at her.The matoran blushed a deep crimson beneath her mask. She froze in place. He's back! And he was watching me sleep...
IC(Balaythah)
"Oh. Uh...hello," Balaythah says to the Matoran. He suddenly felt awkward for being there, but he had to make sure she was okay. "I'm, uh, sorry for imposing on you like this. But, there's been an attack and I came in here to make sure you were okay," he explains.-Mef Man
IC - Sucogu - StreetThings he knew about the Chief Doctor:-had a thing for the other doctor-extremely temperamental-hit him with a water jetThings he knew about mercenaries: -dangerous, worked for the highest bidder -only surrendered with a trick up their sleeve-always had backup plansConclusion: "Here, I'll go, too." he said, heading for the hospital.
IC: Nakumir gave a little nod. Her blush deepened.He's trying to protect me...She looked away. Time to change the subject."Um, what kind of attack?"Hau saluted and bowed yet again. He then turned ran back in towards the reception desk. Surely charcoal would be present in that thing.
IC(Balaythah)
"I'm not sure," he replies. "I...wasn't really in the position to help," adds Balaythah while gesturing toward his patched up wound.-Mef Man
IC: Nakumir only now noticed his wound. Her face became even redder.If he wasn't in a position to help, then why was he guarding me...?"I-I see."
IC(Balaythah)
"But, I don't know how much help I can be," explains the Matoran. "I'm out every weapon I had when I came here. Maybe that instrument down there would help me fend off any attackers," he jokes; not even considering damaging Nakumir's possessions.-Mef Man
IC: Nakumir continued to blush. She was starting to feel woozy.He was looking at my-my stuff?"May-maybe...," the Ga-Matoran stuttered. She smiled faintly.
IC(Balaythah)
"So, what is that exactly?" he asks, curious of what kind of instrument it was. The Matoran had learned to play a violin when he were younger, but this one looked...different.-Mef Man
IC: Nakumir smiled. Not just out of relief-she loved to play.The matoran turned and pulled herself over to the other end of the bed. There she picked up her viola and its bow case. Then the doctor turned again."This is the viola I've had ever since I was a baby," Nakumir explained happily. "It's the favorite of all my instruments. So I've kept it as pristine as I can."She paused. Beneath her Pakari, the matoran blushed slightly."Can-can I play something for you?"
IC(Balaythah)
"Please. Do," he replies, smiling. How he enjoyed the sound of a good stringed instrument. He could never get it down right when he used to play.-Mef Man
IC: KrayzikkKrayzikk spotted Hau and spoke slightly louder than normal so the toa could hear. "Hau! When you go back to the academy, whenever you do, tell Vernadon I will be back as soon as possible." He paused. "This mess is my fault, I have to help fix it."
IC: Nakumir flushed a bit more beneath her mask. But the redness soon dissipated as she got to work.First the matoran set her instrument. She grasped it by the 'tail' gently in one hand and arranged her hand so that the opposite end of its body was nestled in the crook of her neck and shoulder.Next Nakumir withdrew her bow from its box. The Ga-Matoran held it with what was almost reverence as she lightly touched it to her viola in several practice strokes.Now she deemed herself ready. Nakumir inhaled deeply and began to touch bow to strings in the somber, but awed and beautiful, tune of 'What 'Toran is This'-a traditional Naming Day song."What 'toran is this/," she began to sing tentatively to the strokes, "Whom matoran worship and to-a sing?/"Hau turned at the voice and nodded. "I woulda stayed, but I can't do anything here, and my teacher wants to get going," he said apologetically. "I'll tell Vernadon."
IC: Krayzikk"Thanks. Give Sucogu my regards." Krayzikk returned his attention to the matter at hand. Then it occurred to him. "Wait, where's Nakumir?"
IC: Hau cocked his head to one side. "Nakumir? Whozat?"
IC - Sucogu - Hospital"Oh, hello, Krayzikk." he said, entering the building. "It looks like a tornado struck this place." he grumbled, taking a good look at the place.
IC: SoliSoli sat down next Zyckel, "You know Zycky, I've told you before that it's not good for you to drink." The bartender walked over to Soli to take her order. "I'll take one of those new fizz drinks." Soli placed her widget on the counter as the can was slide over to her. Picking it up she opened it and took a sip. "You know Zycky, these new fizz drinks are all the rage in Ko-Wahi, and best of all they're not even alcoholic."IC: Slife"Vernadwho?" Slife asked outloud, "Nice to see you again chap, I'm all confused over here." Slife then said to Sucogu.
IC(Balaythah)
Balaythah leans back in his chair and cotinues to smile at the sound of the Matoran's voice and viola. It was a perfect harmony, each one complimenting the other. The guard wished he knew how to play or sing so he could join her, but he enjoyed listening more.He softly hums the tune, knowing the chorus from the celebrations.-Mef Man
IC: Ekage:The young Toa of Air glanced around him as he walked through Ta-Koro's arching main gate. Ta-Matoran guardsmen patrolled the battlements of the tall wall that surrounded the village of fire.Cool. was Ekage's only thought as he took in the sight. It was the his first visit to Ta-Koro and it was so... differant from Le-Koro, his hometown. OOC: Open for interaction.
IC: Nakumir began to pick up in confidence. Her voice gradually increased in fervor."Haste, haste to bring him praise/Come, have no fear, Mata's son is here..."
IC: Krayzikk"Sorry Hau, that was more directed to be answered by everyone. Nakumir works here." Krayzikk paused, "Hello Sucogu. And yes, a tornado did hit this place. Two air toa."
IC(Balaythah)
Balaythah continues to hum slightly while nodding his head back in forth to the beat of an invisible drum. Karz, is she good.-Mef Man
IC: Hau nodded. He turned and walked to the door of the hospital to wait for Sucogu.Just in case his master didn't get going that quickly Hau started palm training. He began to bend all of his right fingers back with his left palm and holding for thirty seconds as some quick palm training; he would then alternate between using the left and right hands for the bender and bendee. The martial artist probably wouldn't get very far. But the toa still needed to stay up-to-snuff.Nakumir's voice rang out like the tinkling of silver bells. Her bow skated across the viola's strings."This, thi-is is Mata the king/Whom 'toran guard and to-a sing;/Haste, ha-aste, to bring him laud/The 'toran, the son of Spir-its!"With that line the doctor ended her rendition. Red in the face, she smiled and dipped her body in what would've been a curtsy had she been able to make one at the moment.
IC: Aryll was bored, to say the least. He'd been in Ta-Koro for a week, searching for mercenary work. All he'd managed to do was blow a third of his widgets on booze and inn rooms. Wandering around, he noticed a poster. It was a recruiting poster for the 'Island Liberation Squad' telling him to go to Lake Pala.in Le-Wahi.He didn't have much else to do, so why not help a tiny little team battle the Makuta. He certainly had the experience. So he made his way toward Le-Wahi.OOC: Aryll Vudigg to Le-Wahi.
