OOC: *sigh* I missed all the fun while I was at Sea World huh? Great....IC: XxethXxeth had drawn his maces, unsure what to do. "Okay, okay, I have just one question, who are you people?" The zamor that Hatann launched was blow off course by Xxeth with a small twister. Xxeth looked at Hatann, "You." He pointed at Hatann. "Don't know you from...somewhere? You in a assassins guild?"OOC: Xxeth knows people from the underworld.
OOC: Except, NEX has barely been around long enough to ever be known underground, let along who is in it, which is kept rather secretive. This isn't a crime family, this is a group of secretive murderers who try not to get any attention toward them, except the tablets. They aren't your normal criminals with underworld connections.IC: Moylan"And who the-"Unpleantant."-are you?"She asked, getting go of Odhran and pointing a sword at Xxeth
OOC: My bad, I edited out the Nex bit.IC: XxethXxeth looked at the tip of the sword, and just laughed. "Who me? Let me show you." Xxeth was there, then in a blink of an eye, he wasn't.What had happened was Xxeth had activated his mask of speed. He zipped around and was almost instantly behind Moylan. He tapped Moylan on the shoulder. "Behind you." Moylan turned around. (I'd assume she would anyway.) "The name's Xxeth, infamous assassin, former servant of Makuta, and newest member of this pirate crew. And yes I do take tips."
OOC: That fits a lot better. NEX is probably even unknown in the underworld right now, and really hasn't done enough to be well known even if it is known. Right now, it's reputation is somewhat... limited to pathetic levels. People aren't even finding the bodies. XDIC: MoylanShe did indeed turn. She used her own mask of quicktravel.And then she was behind him, doing the exact same thing, tapping Xxeth on the shoulder."Moylan, famous sword juggler in Ga-Koro, former Pirate, and member of... whatever it's called, murder club or whatever. And the only tip I'm giving is that tapping someone on the back of the shoulder is a good way to get beheaded."
IC: Gaea:"Me? Bring hope? I hardly believe I could be of any assistance," Gaea argued.
IC: Xxeth"Ah why yes, yes it is. But as you can clearly see, I was trying to show off, though you just had to go and ruin that with that shiny mask of yours didn't you?"Xxeth sighed as he turned around to face Moylan, "But anyway, I'm used to dealing with opponents with swords, my brother, Skyra, is an expert user of the katana. And we're not exactly on the best of terms right now if you know what I mean." Xxeth turned to Odhran, "Can we keep her? She's my type."
OOC: That last comment = XDIC: MoylanAt his last comment, she had something to say."You, shut up. Now."She this time had two swords up, one on each side of Xxeth's throat."Your brother may be good with swords, but he's not faced Moylan Visic. If he had, he wouldn't be able to pick up a sword ever again."
IC Salvinn"That is your challenge, succeed and you'll find peace with yourself. Fail, and well atleat you know that you tried. "
IC: Gaea:"How can I stop all the chaos on this island?" Gaea asked.
IC: XxethYep. She's definitely my type.Xxeth grinned wickedly. "I wish you would fight my brother, seeing him not able to use a sword would make my day. I want to kill him you see." "Now, I know what you're probably thinking, 'Why is this guy so cocky?' Well, you maybe have two swords at my throat. But...." Xxeth eyed his right hand, suggesting Moylan to do the same.In his right hand was a dagger, which he had grabbed from somewhere hidden on his body after he dropped his maces. The dagger was pointed right as Moylan's side. Any closer and it would cut her."You see? I don't just use maces. They're mostly for show actually. Now why don't you put the swords down and back away, that way, neither of us needs to get injured."
IC Salvinn"Because you won't be alone. You'll have me and my allies. Not to mention every being you inspire hope in, will try and inspire hope in someone else. The first step for you is to have hope and you need to believe in yourself. "
IC: MoylanThe blades at his throat magnetized together like a pair of scissors at his throat. in one swift motion, her now free hand pulled out her smallest, and last sword, pushing the knife away with it. It wasn't a threat, it was more of a challenge of boasting to her, see who could outdo the other.Then she pulled back all three blades, putting away the smallest, then separating the other two and putting them away."You aren't the only one with a reason to kill their brother, trust me."
IC: Gaea:"Explain how this will help?" Gaea smirked.
IC Salvinn"You said you wanted to be rid of your crimes. Well, unfortunately your actions won't leave. However you can do inspire others to be good. In the process you will have done enough good to make up for your crimes. Atleast give it a try will you."
IC: Gaea:"When do we start? And what is with that mark on your arm?" Gaea said.
IC Salvinn"We start now, hope isn't something you can force on others. Rather you need to travel around and then, if see a moment, seize. As for the Mark. When there is Hope around I gain strength. Only the hope of the Matoran around, their hopefulness for the future that they gained after our defeat of you and those bird creatures. Only their hope is keeping me from feeling the burns on my back."
IC: Gaea:"Yeah, sorry about that," Gaea winced at the scorched back. "Anyways, are there any others like you?"
IC: Xxeth"Tell me about it. Skyra is nothing but a self-righteous wanna be hero. He thinks he can help defeat Makuta and save the island. I tried to reason with him, and what does he do? He brands me a traitor, get's me banished from the six koro, and then vows to keep scum like me from destroying life as we know it! Some older brother he was! I looked up to him you know? It always looked out for me. Then when I finally get a chance to look out for him? Does he take it? Nooooooo! I get labeled a criminal! Why I-"Xxeth stopped. He realized he'd been doing nothing but ranting about his past for the last few minutes. "I...Why on earth did I just...tell you guys all that...." "Huh, I must be more stressed than I thought. Though you know, I'm feeling much better suddenly..."
IC: MoylanThe rant of Xxeth got her started up on her own rant, about her own brother."MY brother Kirgon has been a pathetic failure at everything, and guess what? It was always stuck on me, his older sister, to keep him from getting himself into trouble. But mister blue with attitude thinks himself some sort of superior being or something, and think's he's immune to trouble. So when he decided to take up gambling, guess who was there, forced to pay for his debts he had racked up? It sure wasn't our younger sisters! "And then, he got himself caught up in even more debt with some highly untrustworthy people. Apparently he had become a heavy drinker and a gambler. But guess who he had said would pay what he owed them? Me! So I was stuck doing a stupid sword juggling dancing show in Ga-Koro to pay them off!""You're right... complaining about a worthless brother does make you feel better."
IC(Draebe): "Please, everyone, choose. Fight against each other, talk about Mazuzu, or fight off the remaining birdies."While he spoke he thought about his own brother. Wait...I don't have a brother. Eh.OOC: Note: Draebe still doesn't even believe in Makuta. Or know his name.
OOC: Dear god, please calm down with the whole big-fight-posty-thing, I try to sleep for... what...ten hours and have to go through TWO BLOODY PAGES? No offence to anyone. I'm just not a morning person. I'll be much calmer later.IC: IgnotusIgnotus attempted to dodge the grapnel gun, but it hit his left arm, and it took all the willpower he had to get back to the ground."FOOLS! We are the Mystix! WE ARE IMMORTAL!"OOC: No, no they aren't. They are perfectly mortal.
IC (Hatann): The fighting had abrupty taken a complain-about-your-family break, caused by the arrival of another assassin. Another potential recruit to NEX, maybe?"Yes, you do know me from somewhere" he replied to the toa of air. "I'm that assassin who stopped you from killing that toa in Onu-koro a few years ago by getting there first. Good kill that." he added. "So once you're quite done with all this idle talk, Moylan and I have another murder to commit tonight for a new coalition of scoundrels. I have to say, the pay is very good. Maybe you'd like to join up?"
IC (Sentraken, Xa-Koro): "I'll take that as a yes, then." Sentraken mused, being ignored by everyone else in the topic for a second time. He spun around, and leapt off of the building, "You there!" he pointed to Draebe, "I don't know who you are, but as far as I'm concerned you're my enemy. Die!" he shouted, unleashing four throwing daggers through the air in his direction.
IC (Lohkar)"Immortal, eh?" said Lohkar. "Let's see about that."He sheathed his sword, and using his grapnel gun, the Lesterin swung down from his ship to the shore, drawing a Zamor launcher as he did so. The moment he landed he fired a metal ball at Ignotus.IC (Stralix)The burning Mystix landed nearby. Stralix gritted his teeth, and pulled a small metal object from his belt. He tossed it onto the flame-covered bat-thing...IC (Hahkes)Hahkes heard an explosion nearby. He stood his ground, bowstring taut, ready to take on anything that came near his inn.
IC: The Captain cheered and fistpumped. He jumped up and down in exultation."SCORE: BIRDIES-ZERO, AWESOME DOODS-FIVE!" All non-Ignotus Mystix were now on the ground. He had just finished 'cleaning them up' with his kukri...In other words, taking their useful bits of armor, weapons (if any), and making sure they were all dead with a good slit of the throat. With the exception of those flaming ones, of course-he didn't particularly wish to get burned.Doomslayer stuffed all his new toys into a satchel he took from a deserted shop and began running towards the fight once again. When he got close enough to hear what was happening well, the toa frowned.It was a great fight...But why wasn't Kiox using his new special weapon? They HAD to! Their precious investments couldn't go to waste. Especially not when these contained such great power.With that in mind, Aki Rua resolved to solve the conundrum and did so the only way he could-"KILL, KILL, KILL-KILL THE STOOPIT BIRDIE!"-Playing his ukulele as he approached in an improvised motivational song.
OOC: Nitro has a Mystix character too, FYI.IC: IgnotusIgnotus quickly ducked to avoid the sphere, before magnetising both his wing and Lohkar at the same polarity, then he pushed foward.OOC: Ignotus probably could've had better timing with the whole conquest thing. TBH, I thought this would be much easier.
IC - Kiox - Awkward"Um, I'm a bard pirate who just saved anything for the first time today. Honestly, I just helped kill a mutineer with the words 'here's to the outcasts.' You -probably- wouldn't find hope in me." he chuckled heartily.Well, this was swell. Was she a prisoner, or not?
IC:Odhrán"I hate to break up this whole 'I hate my Brother' session. Especially since I also have a brother that I hate... But that's beside the point. We can all complain about our brother's after we kill the leader of the birds." Odhrán said, pointing at Ignotus. "Tooroko, you shoot him with the cannons. Xxeth, you make it hard for him to fly with your elemental powers. Moylan, magnetize him to that assassin in the sky. Draebe, get me over to the other ship. Twilite, shoot him down."
OOC: Hey, it is fair and just! Emzee gave me one condition for my echolocation, and I suddenly REALLY wish he didn't...IC: IgnotusAfter attacking Lohkar, Ignotus decided to take care of the irritating one who'd been having a swim. He looked around for a suitably large rock, and found a chunk of a building. He magnetised it and Odhrán, then threw it into the water. If it worked, Odhrán would sink with it.
IC:OdhránOdhrán watched Ignotus throw a rock into the water at a piece of derbris that was shaped like him. The debris was shattered. "Oi! Birdy! What on earth are you doing?" he called from his ship.
OOC: He didn't, he just threw it into the water. He wasn't trying to throw it at you.
OOC:Oh....IC:Odhrán"Oh... That's what you're doing you sneaky bird!" Odhrán called, feeling the pull. Twilite shot the rock with lightning, negating the charge, and destroying the rock. "Won't work you stupid bird!"
IC: MoylanAs Odhran started barking orders, she ignored him completely. Then when he was pulling pulled along by the rock, she freed him from the magnetic pull. But he got to it first.And after that, she turned to Hatann and Xxeth."Yeah, though I haven't seen any pay yet.
IC: GunnerGunner had groaned when he saw the Mystix. This day was just getting better and better.He readied himself, sending a small cyclone into the water where the rock had landed. The newly formed whirlpool created enough pull and force to drag the stone back to the surface and launch it back to it's source.-Void
IC: XxethXxeth pondered the offer. "Hmm....that sounds...really tempting. Though I supose I have to choose between being a pirate and that huh?"Then Odhran gave him orders. "Ok." He began to make the wind around the bat creature impossible to fly in safely, he would have to land, or risk crashing in a random location.He turned to Hatann, "Hey, bud, I'll talk to you about that deal after this, but if she hasn't seen any pay yet, it might be hard to convince me."
OOC: The rock was destroyed by BioBeast, Emissary. And, Snelly, Ignotus is no longer in flight.IC: Ignotus"Mystix; M-Y-S-T-I-X MYSTIX!" Ignotus used his power over magnetism to try and push Odhrán over.
IC:Odhrán"Shut up you stupid, stupid bird!" Odhrán said, using his power to suck away all the air around the Mystix. He then was almost pushed off the ship. Hopefully Moylan would save him...
IC: Gaea:"Really, just jail me," Gaea said.
IC: IgnotusIgnotus gave another push at Odhrán, in an attempt to knock him off of the boat.
IC - Kiox - Dock"Uh...okay. Okay. I can do that." he replied.He flicked her on the forehead jokingly."You are now under the custody of the Infernavika!" he lowered his voice as he said it.Hey. At least this was all for something. Even if it was a little something.
