BZPRPG: Ga-Wahi

IC: Rynekk - Ferry

IC: Tadris"Why don't you put a roof on the box? Then it'll have to bring it's tentacles in if it didn't want them crushed!" Tadris suggested, already heating up the walls of the box.The Toa of Ice soon came to help them, beginning to freeze the water around the squid, but not the parts touching the wall, which was, of course, being heated. The Toa of Sonics tried to create a sound under the water to stun the creature. The Toa of Water increase pressure beneath the water at the same time as pushing the water around the box up, creating a blob of water above the surface with the box on top, making it harder for the squid to escape. The Toa of Earth continued to fight off the remaining tentacles, and the Toa of Fire helped Tadris. The blue and gold Toa did little more than stay seated, glaring at the proceedings as if it would help.

IC: Drini"And I'd love ever sho dearly not to be drugged." Drini retorted. "But we both know that won't happen, don't we? It'sh too dangeroush for your preshcious operation."

IC: Mimira - Inn, Ga-koro -"Oh I know! We could go to Le-koro and see Turaga Matau! He's the closest thing I've got to family besides Skyra...he could probably help us with finding the Valk...Valk...the winged lady."

IC:Pearl"Matau's a brakas." Pearl muttered under her breath, possibly starting up the Matau/Nuju fight again.Bhuta"Well we only drug you to keep the other passengers safe." Bhuta said, a comforting grin crossing his face. It's only round one, and she's already fighting back hard. Good... She's wasting all her energy in the beginning. "If you stopped trying to kill us all, we wouldn't be forced to drug you." His grin did not match his actions though, as he savagely ripped away the numbing effect, then reapplied the lightning shocks, being careful to not allow her enough pain to concentration. He had made that mistake one too many times. What Drini did not know though, was that the taking of pain was addicting. Being carefree, with only a feeling of bliss felt good, and to have that taken away, to be replaced by pain, made the body crave the bliss. This craving, if not carefully guarded against, became an addiction, which in turn led to the body almost relying on the pain suppression to even work.OOC:Credit for the logic behind the torture, and the torture itself, goes to FT.

IC: DriniBut Bhutan didn't count on one thing. The switch between bliss and pain was like being splashed with cold water.For one instant, Drini was back. She didn't have time for anything fancy, so she did the simplest thing she could think of. She slammed him with a brief, but intense, jet of water.Then the power was gone. But even drugged, Drini knew that it was a waiting game. Bhutan had to watch his step, or he might awaken the instrument of his destruction. Drini grinned drunkenly. "How ya feelin, Bhuta?"IC: Krian"The Force isn't too fond of me, do getting to Matau might be a challenge..."

IC:BhutaBhuta brushed himself off, slinging water droplets everywhere. "Quite fine, thank you for asking." He responded, holding back a glare with all of his willpower. "Might I ask how you managed to get enough energy to do that?" He already had a growing suspicion, but he figured he might as well ask.

IC: Drini"You can ashk. I won't anshwer." Drini replied, still grinning.

IC:BhutaThe Toa glowered. "Now see? This kind of attitude makes us be forced to drug you." Bhuta said, stopping the pain again, making Drini's though be clouded yet again. I already know how she managed to do that, but I thought she wouldn't be strong enough without her mask... I gotta keep an eye on this one, she's tougher than the rest. He thought, releasing her cuffed wrists, and leading her out of the room. "Thrak! Take Thirty Six here to her... 'Chambers.' And remember to chain her hands to the wall, and her feet to the ground, so she can't try to kill us all." Bhuta called, waiting for Thrak to appear. "Navigator! Head for Po-Koro! We gotta meet back up with Bauglir!"

IC: [Treize]"My duty is to capture criminals. Like your boyfriend. You're interfering with my duty."

IC: ThrakThe Toa of Plantlife walked through the wall to the hallway. Literally, as the boards moved aside to let him pass through. Thrak nodded, the Ve-Toa's grin never leaving his face as a plantlife-hand clamped onto Drini's shoulder. "Move it," he commanded, unneededly, as he pushed the Toa along.IC: Velan"Oh really?" the Toa of Water said, activating her Huna again. If Treize was looking closely just as Velan disappeared, she would see a smile on the Ga-Toa's face. A smile that most beings would register as bad.

IC: Drini"Hey, Thrak! Mind bringing my mashk to my room? I left it on deck." Drini said conversationally, stumbling along. "And while your at it, how about some cheeshecake?"

IC: [Treize]"Yes you are."

IC: ThrakThe only thing that Drini got out of the Toa of Plantlife was a thorn burying itself into her shoulder. But it didn't hurt, oh no, as the thorn contained a numbing agent. Although, Drini could still feel the thorn moving into her flesh, growing and warping as it went. It was sickening, to say the least.All the while, Thrak continued on. Pushing Drini as he went.

IC: Barricade noticed Velan fighting for him. No way he would let her get arrested for him, or anybody else. He showed up. "Actually, officer, I thought you were hitting on me and rejected you." The sarcasm was in his tone. He pulled out his wheel whip. "Now, I don't like harming Matoran..." He made a platform of loose earth under his feet, and used it to rapidly rotate, swinging at all the Jaliax Sisters. "But you just crossed the line. About six times." he said, counting the sisters approximately."No need to shout." It seemed the navy officer, at least, was more easygoing. He finished splitting the skull without damaging the brain, and it fell apart easily. Severing the blood vessels with his scalpel, he lifted up the brain. "How's this?" He set it down, then looked outside into the village. He couldn't recognize anyone, even the Matoran he had just talked to. "What's that...?"

OOC: You do realise that one of the Sisters is on the roof of her restaurant, while another is actually just inside a nearby hut?IC: [Four]"You also crossed the line," replied Four, a whip of water grabbing onto Barricade's whip, stopping it. "You may have crossed it once, but by threatening my sister, you have crossed it exactly thirty times."IC: [28]"Hmm?"

IC: VelanFour's whip of water was suddenly disrupted by Velan's own elemental control. It wasn't much, but enought to release Barricade's whip.Velan was, infact, relaxing back; invisible; on a nearby roof top.

IC: Savina - Beach -"Well, I'm a Toa of Plantlife...so I can control plants and such. My mask is a Faxon...so I can use certain abilities of various rahi. I'm also somewhat of a herbalist...I know what kind of plants can do what, I can make poisons, medicine, and stuff like that." Savina looked over herself, she had her bag with her, but somewhere along the line she'd lost her wooden bow. "Hmm...I'm not a bad shot with a bow either...I'd show you if I hadn't lost it."

Ic: "Then you are useful enough for me," Anthyn said with a dollop of coldness, though in all Savina's blindness she did not sense it. Anthyn saw Savina as a pet, a toy, and perhaps even a tool or weapon, but that was the point: Savina was a thing, not a person, and definitely not a friend. Anthyn would have little remorse for the item sitting with her, and her care for Savina would only stretch as far as her pleasure. A herbalist with a wild heart and a bow and arrow was fitting for a savage, and the Valkyr saw Savina as such at best. It was to be an interesting match.Anthyn flopped on her back elegantly and writhed in the sand to stretch.

IC: RavageRavage nodded quietly.IC: DriniDrini winced. "Be careful, Mrak. You'll want me fit for work if ya ever want to be rid of me!"OOC: Krayzikk from Ko-KoroKrayzikk arrived at Riaril's house, shoulders slumped and his heart heavy.He stepped through the broken door, dimly aware splinters coated the floor. Lying on the floor a few feet away, was Riaril, exactly where Krayzikk had left her. Carefully, he picked her up, carrying her carefully, as if she were made of glass. He moved out of the door, his eyes tearing up though he didn't notice. Slowly, he walked toward the shore.*****************************Minutes later, the Titan arrived at the spot where he and Riaril had paused to admire the ocean. He stepped toward the edge of the path, and set Riaril down gently. He drew the shovel he had purchased in the village, and began to dig.Time passed. Krayzikk didn't know how long, nor did he care. Eventually, he had dug a hole deep enough. Carefully, he lay Riaril down inside."I'm sorry. I don't know how you wanted to be buried, so I did the best I could." Krayzikk looked down. "I'm sorry our time was cut so short. But there is nothing I can do, now."Slowly, Krayzikk began to refill the hole. "Goodbye, Riaril."***************************A short time later, a tall being could be seen leaving the Wahi, bound for Ko-Koro.OOC: Krayzikk to Ko-Koro

OOC: Oh. Sorry. You weren't quite specific there. IC: "Thanks!" Barricade formed a humongous boulder of earth and hurled it at Four. "Sister, eh? How big IS this family?" He pulled out his transformable disk launcher, turned it to claw form, and focused his elemental power. He pointed it at Treize, as she was the one to try to arrest him, and summoned earth from the bottom of the sea. Rising up to surround her and squeeze her, as long as his claw was pointed at her the earth would follow. OOC: Just to clarify. The weapon has no special function, he could probably do it with an Earth Sword. Obviously takes elemental power. IC: Ratchet saw the weapons and the moves used by the Earth Toa. He also saw two Water Toa, one familiar..."WHAT THE--THAT'S MY OLD...ACQUAINTANCE!" Barricade was honestly not one of his friends, but still an old teammate.OOC: I think this is going to end Ratchet's medical career, at least with 28. IC: Ratchet charged in, extending his saw from his arm. "BARRICADE! I'M COMING!" He used gravity to hold all the sisters, even Treize, knowing that she was under a dirt enclosement attack from Barricade. "You'd better have a good reason for me to be here!""Long story short, they're trying to arrest me when I have committed no recent crime. I was even holding back for a while.""Leave him alone! I'm a medic! This is a serious breach of justice. And if you arrest him, a travesty of epic proportions!"

OOC: Too many attacks bro. Too many. Besides, you just auto-hitted Treize as well.So RETCON TIME~!IC: [One/Three/Four/Five/Treize/28]Treize barely managed to roll to the side as the earth piled onto the spot where she had been before, but was unfortunately trapped by the field of gravity that had been created. Four, along with One, Three and Five, were also trapped by the gravity field, which also prevented Four's head from being punched in by the giant ball of dirt that had been thrown at her. Two however had escaped by being in a nearby hut, but couldn't really do anything due to being stuck in her hut."This is not a breach of justice," growled Treize as she struggled to get up. "I am merely following my orders. You have several charges on your record, and you have served no time for your crimes. You will also have several more charges now, for assaulting an officer, resisting arrest and assaulting innocents."She paused for a moment as in the corner of her eye, she spotted the third youngest sister of the family slowly move around the duo of mad Toa."By the way, you're a medic?" she continued. "Too bad, because ..."Two scalpels flew from towards the heads of the two Toa."I'm a doctor," finished 28 as she glared angrily at them.

OOC: That wasn't an autohit, I never said it hit. I just made it hard to dodge. And, understood on the too many attacks. IC: Barricade whirled around, catching the two scalpels in his wheel whip. "Friend of yours?""Not really." Ratchet gravitized her too. "Barricade, shatter that road she's on."Barricade made a spike of earth and hurled it into the leaf road 28 was gravitized to, and unless something stopped her from sinking, she would be down there long enough to be unconscious. "Don't kill her. I think we have enough on our records.Ratchet whirled around. "Innocents? They attacked us first!""You DID technically throw the first attack, officer." Barricade laughed."I'm going to ask nicely. Can we go now?" Ratchet rotated his saw, hinting at what he would do if he got the answer he was expecting.

OOC: Actually, you did. You mentioned Treize being stuck underneath the dirt that Barricade threw.Also, you seem to have the habit of making your characters be in the right all the time.IC: [One/Three/Four/Five/Treize/28]"To be frank, we attacked you because you were resisting arrest," said Treize. "I merely called in for assistance. Besides, I doubt you will be able to set foot in Ga-Koro any more after what you two have pulled."She gestured to all the villagers around them, who were understandably annoyed at Barricade and Ratchet.Behind them, 28 gasped for air as she pulled herself out of the water, grabbing onto another lilypad."YOU MORONS!" she roared. "DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW GRAVITY WORKS? YOU COULD'VE BLOODY KILLED ME! WE'RE NOT DEALING WITH MAGNETISM HERE! YOU INCREASED MY BLOODY WEIGHT YOU NUMBSKULLS! I COULD'VE DROWNED!""Also," added Treize. "You angered my youngest sister. I bet she'll end up releasing Eight on you."

OOC: Technically, he insulted Treize, and got a rock thrown at him in response. I do see your point though...That was a misphrasing. Ratchet saw her in the process of being covered, as in he saw the earth rising out of the water and all that.IC: "Yes. Medical lesson one: Lack of air can knock you out. My goal precisely. The average time you could hold your breath before such things happen, considering your flapping around to get free...you'd be knocked out in approximately thirty seconds. As long as I got you to the surface again before a full minute, I'm sure you'd regain consciousness...in the hospital." He promptly increased her gravity again.Barricade looked at the villagers. "Nothing to see here, run along now, don't go home with strangers...blah blah blah." No one, obviously, listened to Barricade's amazing manners. He simply fired a disk at Treize, still gravitized, intending to knock off her mask.

OOC: He did resist arrest though.IC: [28/Treize]"GRAVITY DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!" screamed 28 as she began to sink once more.The disk slammed into Treize's arm, knocking her into a hut."You do realise that during the time you've been beating me up," she croaked, "that reinforcements have arrived, and that Ga-Koro will probably have a bounty for your heads?"

OOC: Yes. And that is not what I would have done, but these guys are alien robots put into Bionicle bodies. (Well, Barricade is kind of Vegeta mixed with Barricade now.) They...don't handle such things well. And, unlike me, they DID do illegal things, which contributes to resisting arrest. I'm in character. Oh, and did I mess up on the gravity, or is she just freaking out? IC: Barricade facepalmed. "This always happens..." Ratchet looked around. "Oh Karz."OOC: And this is the more chaos part. Keep in mind that he attacks no one in this post. Or, depending on what happens, it could be more order.IC: And thus it was time for his return. (OOC: Cue the music, lol.) A red and blue figure held on to the top of a tree, and finally jumped off. Activating his mask, he flew toward the Koro, and flipped twice. Cutting the leaves that had gotten stuck to him with his swords, he freefell for a while, finally landing on one knee in the center of the battle, slowed by his Kadin. Tah--erhm, Optimus Prime, as he was now called to avoid recognition, had arrived. He stood up. "Please tell me why you are attacking my acquaintances." He sheathed his sword.

OOC: On no, because increase of gravity means she's heavier, and is more likely to sink. Even if he reduces her gravity, 28 will still keep on sinking.You seem to be slowly returning back to your previous state.IC: [Treize]"Because he's resisting arrest? Because he has committed several crimes? Do I have to teach all of you about Mata Nuian law?"

OOC: Argh. She climbed back up, so I made it harder. Does anything look like it's slipping dangerously toward g-modding yet? I'm also trying to avoid using Optimus to fight for these reasons. He's just here to be the one character I have that can hold a proper conversation without pulling out a rather large weapon.IC: "Resisting arrest..." He thought for a moment. "The crimes that have been committed are long past. I can assure you that until recent events, we have all been under self-imposed exile, and not on the run." (OOC: True.) "Ta--""Ratchet, calm yourself." He turned to Treize. "My name is Optimus Prime." He turned back to Ratchet, the look in his eyes telling him to go along with it. "I once looked after these two...rowdy Toa. If it is all right, I will take them back with me, out of this Wahi. If it is not, we will have to do some...discussions." He tried not to look threatening, as he had no desire to pull a weapon on them.

IC: [Treize]"Give me proof that the black Toa's charges have been cleared."

OOC: I don't think JL plays anymore, so..IC: "If you wish, we can speak to Vakama. He ordered that Barricade would be under the watch of a certain Argentum, now missing. Barricade, when his jailer disappeared, went into exile. I have not seen these two until today. Unless (OOC: PMing Nuju Metru, waiting for a response, especially while he's busy with Le-Wahi...) journeying to Ta-Koro and going to all that trouble is enjoyable to you, I would advise releasing them."Ratchet returned 28 to normal gravity, dived, and brought her back up to the surface. "As you can see...no one has actually been harmed severely.""Yeah...not even you, officer.""Release them, and Ratchet will take full responsibility for the medical care of any injured, while Barricade helps rebuild the roads he destroyed." Optimus gave Treize his 'serious' stare, which would be quite intimidating to any but the very brave or very foolish...or those who knew him well.

OOC: You do realise Vakama has been kidnapped?IC: [Treize]Treize raised a non-existent eyebrow."Throw in three weeks of confinement in our holding cells and we have a deal. Now if you may excuse me ..."She dived into the water, swimming deeper as she looked for her sub-ordinate. Several seconds late, she re-emerged, dragging Toranmat's unconscious body out.

IC: "WHAT?! BUT THAT'S-""Understood. Barricade, for the common good, and the interest of peace, we must accept these terms. Does Ratchet go as well?"

IC: [Treize]"One week for him," replied Treize. "Now let me resuscitate my sub-ordinate ..."She grumbled as she made sure Toranmat didn't move."Oh great, time for mouth to mouth resuscitation. I hate mouth to mouth."

OOC: LOLOLOL. Oh, and no, I wasn't aware of that. Sorry.IC: Ratchet sighed. "Very well..." Optimus breathed a sigh of relief, though with his voice it seemed quite strange. "If that is your price..." Optimus looked at Treize, guessing what she was about to do. "Strange."Barricade did the same, though he burst out laughing.

OOC: Reading up on how to resuscitate a drowning person ... IC: [Treize]Treize began to perform procedure, making sure to hold her sub-ordinate's nose and breathe into his mouth every few seconds, hoping that he would breathe by himself soon so she wouldn't have to continue.

IC: Toranmat coughed, then managed to take a breath. He suddenly looked quite strange...and coughed repeatedly until a fish flew out at Treize's face. "Er...sorry?" Optimus scratched the bridge of his nose. "And that is even more so."Barricade was now the one unable to breathe, for laughing. "You need to get a sense of humor, Prime!"Optimus sighed. "And you, a sense of when to hold your tongue. Shall the arrest proceed, then?"

IC: [Treize]Treize sighed at her sub-ordinate's antics. "Nevermind."She slowly turned to look at the large Toa of Fire. "Yes."

IC: Toranmat got up. "Er, what happened?"Barricade and Ratchet went to Treize to be cuffed.OOC: That's three weeks "real time", right? Because in "game time" that could take all summer.IC: "Very well. Barricade, Ratchet, no jailbreaks."

OOC: Yes.IC: [Treize]"Let's just say 'Mission Successful'," replied Treize as she cuffed the two, before turning to her sisters. "Thanks, all of you can leave now."They all nodded and went back to whatever they were doing before, except for 28, who was snoring loudly against a hut."By the way Earth Toa, where's your girlfriend?"

OOC: I think she saw the whole thing just now.IC: "I will return for them when the time expires." Optimus walked off to explore the Koro."Right there. Bye, Velan! I'll see you in three weeks!"

IC: [Treize]"Well, goodbye random Fire Toa."
