BZPRPG: Ga-Wahi

IC: Tillian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)"Can it wait until morning?" asked the commander softly, his arm still wrapped tightly around Emotia. "I'm exhausted..."IC: Dorian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)"Not much," said Dorian, trying to summon another ice storm. Nothing.He tried once again. Nothing. He summoned a block of iron that destroyed a nearby tree. Worked like a charm."Apparently, none," said the reincarnated Toa with a shrug. He turned to Reaver. "Alright, then. Good to hear."-Teezy

IC: [Naona]"Except we have exactly nine thousand and sixty one pieces of paperwork to go through, which means we should get a head start on ..."The Toa of Stone stopped as a Dikapi ran up to them. She quickly grabbed the message, and her face paled."Nononononono!"

IC: Tillian (Onewa's Hut, Po-Koro)Tillian's eyebrows raised."Naona, what is it?" asked the Toa of Gravity, standing and walking towards her. "What's-"He stopped as his eyes scanned the shakily written note, and he cursed loudly."We have to get to Po-Koro. NOW."-Teezy

IC: [Naona]"Affirmative Commander," replied the Lieutenant, her face adopting a neutral expression as her mask activated.

IC: KraynKrayn looked at Naona and Tillian. "What is it? Huh?" Krayn was distracted from Soundblaster and Ravage.

OOC: I hate time zonesIC: "It sounds as if Tooroko has outlined our plan well. We plan on scouring the area for any Tarkava in the area. As the Tarkava work mostly alone, and I don't think Makuta can completely alone, we'll probably only see them in groups of five or six. Even so, six tarkava can be a problem. I suggest we keep in, at least, shouting distance. Disturbing the water can often bring them out, so I suggest shooting something at intervals." He looked at the toa of Iron. "controlling their bodies could be adventageous to us, So keep a close watch." Turning to Tooroko, he said,"I suggest we put that cannonball to use, and fire it up to the north of the mouth. Fire pineapples only," he added, as an afterthought. "They will float like a fishing lure, and the tarkava are hungry this time of year. But it may not always be a tarkava if it disappears, so view it as an indicator."

IC: Marda Ace and Ripley on the Iron LadyMarda nodded."Sounds like this is going to be fun." she said. She tapped her foot three times on the deck, and there was an audible sound of cannon balls being loaded. Then she tapped again, and a small burst of fire erupted from the front of the ship."Fire cannon works." she said proudly. Then she turned to Ripley and Ace."Get ready. Ripley, your power of Iron will be quite useful in disabling them. Ace, if neccesary use your power and lift them from the water." she ordered. Ripley nodded."Of course." she said, and rapped her knuckles on the fan device again. The blades began turning faster, and the Iron Lady picked up speed."Miss Marda, I promise I'll do my best." Ace said. Marda nodded and took the wheel again.OOC: This is going to be fun.

OOC: Yes it is:biggrin: Lorax, if you don't mind, can you "find" a stoaway? I have a new character created that I would like to use.IC: Mantoxis waved to Marda and then ran below. He began to fire off pineapples at intervals, watching them before firing again. Before long, he saw several pineapples disappear. He indicated the direction and yelled to Tooroko, "Head towards there, near the ripples."OOC: "There" is slightly north of the center of Naho Bay.

IC: Hajia, Ga-Koro"Well, there's lots to do, but I'm not sure if it's safe to walk the streets any later than now." She said as she guesteured to the falling sun. "Besides, it's been a long day, and I'm kinda tired."

IC: Gravity (Ga-Koro market)I looked over to the falling sun. "Ditto, I'm beat."I stood up from the table an said, "So, we're heading back to Hound's place. Does that guy have enough beds for all of us?"

IC: Skyra - Clearing -Skyra ran over to Tillian, "Why? What's happened? He looked at the note over Tillian's shoulder and read it himself. "Son of a-" IC: Savina - Clearing -"Skyra...do you have to use that kinda language..." Savina asked, wondering what was going on. "In this case...yes...yes I do..." He sighed loudly. "It appears Turaga Onewa has been kidnapped..." IC: Emotia - Clearing -Emotia had awaked when Tillian moved to read the note, she'd heard the majority of what was going on. "Tillian...you better go, I suppose I need to stay here with the other mark bearers, don't worry about me, I'll be fine." "Alright, Tillian, I'm coming with you." Skyra stated as he went over to Destiny, already getting aboard. "Krayn...you want a come? Or stay here?" Skyra didn't bother to ask Laserbeak, he knew she'd come most likely.

IC: Krayn"I'm sure as karz coming!" Krayn sounded somewhat indignant. "Get this guy offa me!"IC: LaserbeakLAserbeak scowled. "That was my idea first. But nooooooo, Frenzy said it was too difficult! And now, some two-bit, second-rate scum took my idea!" Laserbeak followed Skyra.

OOC: The centre of the bay? But tarakava live in the shallows. They don't usually go out into deeper water. I'll go to the northern shore.IC: Sure enough, the pineapples were being taken by the lizards, who were now bobbing up to take the bait. Tooroko steered towards them while trying to give Mantoxis a good position to shoot from. As they approached the shallows, more and more tarakava appeared, and the pinepples disappeared with increasing rapidity. Some even began to squabble over the fruit."Switch to cannonballs now!" he yelled to the gunners. "They're all here now, so let's take them down!" He swung the ship around to the east of the colony, trusting that Marda would see the move and flank the rahi on the west. Under fire from two boats, he hoped that many of the tarakava would be hit before they managed to dive underneath the ships or start knocking holes in them.OOC: Seriously, you brought a water-hating toa on a ship? This could be fun. Anyway, unless he's hiding behind the steering wheel, Tooroko will to too busy steering the ship and fighting tarakava to do anything below deck (where stowaways usually hide). Could Mantoxis bump into him, since he's already down there?

IC: Hajia, Ga-Koro"Hound makes pretty good money in the fishing buisness. He has enough room for us all, but I'm not sure about beds." She said as she stood up and dusted herself off.

IC: OnuzekHe lifted his claw off of Krayn and said, "Onuzek will stay here with Emotia if Tillian wants.""Unless Ryllia wants to go with you guys..."IC: Gravity (Ga-Koro market)I shrugged, "Hmm..... I could always make my own bed. Or even sleep outside.""I seriously don't mind. Speaking of Hound, where is that guy?"

OOC: Yes, I will bump into him, and yes, cause I like scaring toa of plasma. BTW, I should have said, midway between the midway and north side of the mouthIC(Mantoxis): Mantoxis shot several rounds of cannon, and then quickly turned and began to run towards the stairs. Almost to the stairs, he bumped into something hard. "Ooofff!" he exclaimed, looking for the source of sudden pain. He saw a toa of plasma and spoke to him. "who in the name of Mata Nui are you, and what are you doing on this ship?"(Rockosis): Rockosis was suprised as any as to his being on this ship. In fact, his knowledge of the last few days was muddy, at best. "No idea," he replied, "but as I am on your ship, I am at your disposal. Tell me, o large one, what is happenning?"Mantoxis growled, "I don't know what you're doing here, but we can discuss this later. You skills could help above deck, if you're a plasma or fire toa." he practically dragged the toa up the stairs, and then unsheathed his twin swordstaffs. "We're attacking those," said Mantoxis, pointing towards the tarkava,"if you want to help, attack those."In conjunction, the two toa worked. Mantoxis polarized several tarkava, and the other toa incinerated them. Whenever a tarkava threw a "punch," Mantoxis would block the hand attacking with a magnetic sheild, while the other toa melted the hand that attacked. As well paired as the team was, they began to tire, and rows of tarkava began to try to board. "I expected six tarkava, not sixteen!" Mantoxis growled. "A little help, Tooroko?"OOC: Tooroko, you can control Rockosis during this battle

IC: With the tarakarva now dangerously close to the ship, Tooroko descended to the cannons. There was little point staying above to move the ship when they were so close that manoeuvreing would be ineffective. He used the cannons to shoot at anything that got too close to the pair of toa - they were doing a great job and needed to be protected. Wait a moment - pair of toa? he thought. Where did that orange one come from? How did he get on my ship? These questions, he figured, would have to wait. He was fighting the tarakava, which just fine with the Vortixx.

IC: Hajia & Hound, Ga-Koro"Over there." She said with a nod of the head towards the opposite end of the market.Hound stood over there, the gigantic temple squid behind him. His arms waved back and forth, up and down as he argued with the merchant over the price.

IC: Gravity (Ga-Koro market)Ok, that looked kinda funny. Seeing as Hound was like nine feet tall and the Ga-Matoran looked really small compared to him. I grinned, "So, you wanna head back, or wait for him?"

IC: Marda, Ripley, Ace and LiirMarda grinned."ALL HANDS ON DECK! FIRE ALL CANNONS WITH A CLEAR SHOT!" she cried, sending a flurry of iron spheres into the water. Ripley stared out into the ocean, probing with her enhanced senses. She finally found two Tarakava and used all of her will to immobilize them and nodded to Ace. He brought out two long black chains and swung them around his head, and the Tarakava were lifted from the ocean. Marda nodded, but there were still more coming. She strode over to the fan device and gave it a good kick. It began to morph and shift, and soon it was something else. Standing tall, lean muscles and a lanky build, was a Toa of Air, his Mahiki shining in the sun."Alright Liir, let's get this party started." she called, and he nodded, conjuring strong winds to stir up the ocean, making the Tarakava emerge and reveal themselves."FIRE!" Marda shouted, and cannonballs flew, and massive flames erupted from the bow of the ship, scalding the ocean and the Tarakava. Ace used his power and lifted Ripley into the air, and Ripley leapt around, tearing into the Tarakava with her claws. Liir let his spinning pinwheel blades fly, and they cut through the air on a direct path towards the Tarakava. Marda's ship was filled with the din of battle, and everyone went full out on the Rahi.OOC: Yay for excessive violence and surprise characters! Anyone on the deck of Tooroko's ship can comment on Liir's appearence if they want.

IC: Mantoxis roared from the punch one tarkava gave him "ENOUGH!!!" he roared. Drawing up all the energy at his disposal, he let magnetism fly at the creatures around him. The blast, contained, would have crushed their bodies. As it was, the unfortunate tarkava were thrown off the boat and across part of the bay, into deep water.Rockosis just watched, a slight smile at the corners of his lips. "Impressive," he commented. "No wonder you toa are so....repellant"Maxtoxis shot a withering glance towards the other toa. "They will be back, and we must prepare." He threw a shield around the boat."Now let's repair the damage," he said. Looking over at the other ship, he asked, "I wonder who is tall, green, and shiny?"

IC: Tillian (Mark Bearer's Clearing, Ga-Wahi)Tillian opened his mouth to protest, and then shook his head. She would end up staying no matter what he said. Ignoring the unbidden thoughts that this might be the last time he ever saw her, he moved forward and kissed her fiercely for several seconds. When he finally pulled away, his eyes were filled with tears."If you're coming with me," he said darkly, "then let's go."OOC: Tillian to Po-Wahi.*PLAYS SOMBER ORCHESTRAL MUSIC*-Teezy

IC: Emotia - Clearing -Emotia couldn't help but tear up as she kissed Tillian, "Be safe..." She said as she watched him leave. IC: Skyra - Clearing -Skyra, trying his best not to choke up on the touching moment, yelled out. "Alright, Krayn get on, you obviously can't walk so your riding with me! And whoever else is going, let's move!" Skyra helped Krayn get on Destiny. "Uh...Skyra..." Emotia said, wiping tears off her face. "Yes?" He said quickly. "I had...a vision...I supose...and in this vision I saw your...father...""My...father?" Skyra said with an eyebrow raised."I know this will sound crazy but hear me out. Your father...told me, that no matter what happens, you need to stay with Tillian...stay friends with him, not matter what happens...I'm not sure what he meant by that...but it sounded important.""Oh, well...um....okay, I'll do my best..." Skyra wasn't sure if she was crazy or had really seen a vision, maybe she was just really worried about Tillian, either way it couldn't hurt to try to grant the request. With Krayn on board, and that all out of the way, Skyra whistled a command, and Destiny took off with a might screech. causing massive turbulence in the clearing as the Kahu took off. OOC: Skyra to Po-Wahi

IC: KraynKrayn rode along with Skyra.IC: LaserbeakLaserbeak activated her mask, and followed Skyra.OOC: Laserbeak and Krayn to Po-Koro

IC: [Naona]Naona's mask glowed, and she shot after her Commander.OOC: Naona to Po-Wahi

IC:Pearl"So, did we find them Mr. Soundblaster?" Pearl asked, a bit confused if these were the people they were looking for.

IC: Savina - Clearing -Savina sighed, and looked at Pearl, "Yeah, that was them...but they ran off again it seems."

IC: Hajia & Hound, Ga-KoroHajia grinned mischeviously. "Let's see how this unfolds." Hound finished yelling at the Ga-Matoran, who never backed down. Growling and grumbling to himself, he dragged the Temple squid along to another merchant, not yet noticing Gravity and Hajia.

IC: Gravity (Ga-Koro market)I ralaxed back into a seat, watching it play out. I patted the seat next to me, indicating for Hajia to sit down."This aught to be good."

IC:Pearl"Then shouldn't we follow them?" Pearl asked, looking at Savina, then back to Soundblaster. "I mean, unless I missed them saying where they went, I don't think we know where they are. Again..."

IC: Ravage + Soundblaster"We know where they are going." Soundblaster chimed in. "Po-Koro. It seems Turaga Onewa had been kidnapped." Ravage looked thoughtful. "That really was our idea, you know." Soundblaster nodded. "We should follow them."

IC:Pearl"Well duh. But where in Po-Koro?" Pearl asked. "It's not like the kidnappers would stay in Po-Koro after taking the Turaga. And they're probably going after the kidnappers."

IC: Soundblaster + RavageRavage laughed. "Well, if they are tracking the kidnappers, I'll track them."

IC: Hajia & Hound, Ga-KoroHajia sat down next to him and scooted close.Hound approached the next merchant, a bulky skakdi who was staring at the temple squid with interest in his eyes. Hound approached him and offered a price, which by the Skakdi's reaction, was insanely high. They quickly began to argue.

IC, Agzinel: "Po-Koro? But its so sandy there... I guess..." Agzinel complained as he followed after the others. OOC: Agzinel to Po-Wahi.

IC:Pearl"Oh, okay." Pearl said, shrugging. "As long as we get to have an awesome adventure."

IC; SOundblasterSoundblaster laughed. "It involves pirates, and pirates are never boring."

IC:Pearl"Then why are we waiting here, let's go beat up some random pirates!" Pearl said, running off in the wrong direction, her dagger drawn.

IC: Soundblaster "Wrong way, Pearl." Soundblaster laughed again. "Come on, just follow Mr. Rahi." Ravage shot Soundblaster a look.

IC: Savina - Clearing -"Um...I don't know if I should go...I mean, I was traveling with Zauk and Naru...and they're back in Ga-koro..." Savina sounded rather torn and unsure.
