NPC:Said bird, however, was carrying out its commands, watching the group interestedly, standing on some of the steps down to the hold.Hopefully, for them, it wouldn't understand speech. That, however, wasn't a given. And it would continue to watch. And wait. Unseen.
IC: Zacax and Deusui"face it that bird isn't dumb, it's probably trained," Deusui saidZacax turned and saw the bird watch curiously at the group, "Hey remember your dagger?""No I don't," Deusui said sarcastically, Zacax grabbed a sheet of paper abd wrote on it.
ICVerak stated at the toa of fire, all muscles tense. His mind raced, struggling to find some sort of explanation that would explain the situation, before he realized Zakax was helpin them. And offering a great idea.He pushed aside the price of paper. It couldn't be important."That is a fabulous idea, brother. So it's settled? Tonight Ambera slips on Calebos' mask and goes above deck. Ambera will jump off he edge and swim to shore, totally invisible. I'll help her there. Deisui pretends he tied weights to her and drowned her, then offer the mask to the raven-bird, which will see nothing due to it's poor eyesight."
IC: Zacax and Deusui"YUP WE WILL DO THAT!" Zacax said loudly and then handed the two Toa a sheet of paper that's said,Deusui's blade has a collapsing feature on it, we can get some oils that can be found in the Toa's inside or a replacement and 'kill' Ambera, or we can shoot to bird and be done with this."I go with number 2," Deusui whispered.
OOC: Eh, no. No killing birdie.NPC:The bird had heard enough. It flew up out of the hold, landing atop Mussiki's shoulder, who had no misgivings about the bird, and also had not been paying attention to what had gone on below decks. The bird started nuzzling Mussiki fondly.
ICVerak scratched hastily on the price of paper. They must assume the bird was watching them, and could understand speech.No kill bird. He wrote. Bird owner know then we up to something. Then he just whispered "tonight."
IC: [Four]"My maternal senses are tingling."
IC: DeusuiDeusui wrote on the paper and wrote:There is a special herb hear on the ship that temporarily stops them from living for at least 5 minutes, long enough for the bird to see and leave, also I have some special oils I can dip the blade into.
OOC: Zacax, before you get too far with this, I should point out that carrying spare masks is illegal in this game.IC: With the sun setting behind him, Tooroko scrutinised the Matoran before him. The sun's last rays streamed across the ocean, illuminating everything with bright light or deep shadows. It seemed like even ordinary objects took on new weight, and greater definition. Ignoring the sight, he focussed on the ussalmatoran, He took a deep breath in, and then closed the gap between them with a single stride, sining his sword down in a deadly arc at the Matoran's chest.
ICVeran nodded. Murmured "See you tonight," and walked back above decks whistling and watching Toooroko and his opponent.OOCWell I stayed up late...better get back to reality and sleep for a while.
IC:The sea boiled, and a blue being slowly pulled itself out of the waters. Soulgain's eyes flashed, and it began to stride through the village.OOC: Soulgain open for interaction.IC: [The Seventh]"He was named Sifir."
IC: Sontarok walked up to Soulgain. "Who are you?" he asked.
IC:"I am The One Who Channels Madness."
IC: TarnokIf Tarnok had time to smile, he would have.He used his seax knife to deflect the blow to the side, not by a huge amount, but enough that, the attack missed him completely when he sidestepped.His opponent's sword at too awkward a position to stop it, he stabbed at the back of Tooroko's dominant hand with his throwing knife, seeking to disrupt his ability to wield his sword properly.OOC: I'm assuming he used his sword two-handed.
IC: [sontarok]"The one who channels madness? What is that supposed to mean?"
IC:"COMPLETE. GLOBAL. SATURATION."
IC: [Taronak]"What are you talking about?"
IC:"I WILL SHOW YOU THE TEARS OF TIME."
IC: [Taronak]Taronak, beginning to think the toa was insane, decided to go along with what he siad. "Alright, show me the tears of time." he said.
IC:Soulgain snapped its fingers. The water behind it boiled under the intense heat of the plasma that had sprouted from its back, causing steam to rise into the air around them. Its eyes glowed, and it watched as the steam surrounded them.
OOC: Nope, the sword is only in one hand. He uses a shield as well. It's a bit knocked up from his last fight, but it is there.IC: Tooroko's shield intercepted the knife, turning its blade away from the Vortixx's wrist. More than just blocking the stab, he shoved the shield back at the Matoran, attempting to use his height and weight to gain an advantage.
IC: [sontarok]"So what did you just do?"
IC:"Show you ... the tears of time."
IC: [sontarok]"Steam? The tears of time are steam?"
IC:"A single drop of water has so much history."
IC: When they finished eating, Nemesis thought. We are sustained. Now...we need something to do. How else is the island to see my superiority? He scratched his nose in frustration, a motion that he inherited by being cloned from Optimus. "Hantak. We need a base of operations. Something sturdy and on turf that benefits my power." Nemesis walked towards Ta-Wahi. "We're going to take over a good building." He dragged Hantak with him. OOC: Nemesis and Hantak to Ta-Wahi.
IC: TarnokTarnok took a few steps diagonally back, allowing himself to be pushed back. He brought his knives up into a ready position.
IC: With Tarnok on the back foot, Tooroko tried to press his advantage. He reached down and swung his sword hoirzontally at the Matoran's neck. It wasn't that he was aiming to decapitate his foe, but that the his head was the easiest place to reach. Compared to Vortixx, even the tallest Matoran was a bit of a shrimp, which added an interesting extra dimension to their conflict. He doubted he would be able to reach the Matoran's legs without crouching down, but at least he wasn't in much danger of losing his own head.
OOC: All the interesting stuff happens at night.IC: Aurel (The Silver Keras):Aurel saw Zacax following them into the hold, she simply shrugged at the events, she'll ask Zacax about it later on. Besides, this island was full of mysteries, and it could do with one more.
IC: [Four]Four yawned as she walked through the streets of Ga-Koro. She hadn't got much sleep the day before, so was still rather tired. However, it would probably be fixed by a cup of coffee, so she was now heading towards the closest café in order to buy one.
IC: Tillian (Casa Juturna, Ga-Wahi)"I wanna wait for Skyra, Krayn, Laserbeak and Reaver first. There's something we all need to talk about."-Teezy
IC:"...Yeah" Labelle said, laughing and agreeing with Emotia. "But I'm pretty sure that doesn't matter. And besides we have... a whole hour for everyone to sober up and get dressed and have cocktails?" Turning to Tillian, she asked "I guess its some private matter you all want to talk about?"
IC - Reik - Cafe"No no, I didn't mean it that way. I'm just saying..."He sighed."Eh, nevermind."
IC: Emarosa (Cafe, Ga-Koro)"What is it?" she asked, looking concerned and scooting her chair over so she could look right into his eyes. Ema reached her hand under the Toa's chin and tilted it up so her eyes met his. "C'mon, Reik, we just downed like a jillion gallons of espresso together. You can tell me anything."-Teezy
IC: ZacaxZacax looked through his bag and saw no masks...great. Everything of his was being stolen? He got his bag and went to the Koro to see of they sold masks.
IC - Reik - Cafe"I just wanted to tell you..."His smile, formerly unmovable, wavered as he paused."...That I think the espressos were great. I would never have thought to drink that much of the stuff."
IC: Emarosa (Cafe, Ga-Koro)Ema grinned widely and began shaking again, the moment of seriousness having passed; the sweet, naive Toa of Lightning hadn't noticed Reik's smile waver. She moevd over and hugged him jubilantly, wrapping her arms around his neck until he began to lose air flow."I knew you'd like them! I knew it I knew it I knew it!"-Teezy
IC: Skyra - Ga-Wahi Beach -"Wait...Liara!" I stood up, though I didn't let go of Mimira, I held her in my arms. "I'm coming with you, but we better make this quick...with the wedding starting soon and all."
OOC: Who's Laryn? :PIC: LiaraLiara paused. "It should probably wait until after the wedding. It'll take a while."
IC: ZacaxZacax got off the boat and went into the village. He really hoped they had kanohi masks, if they plan would work, they could give the bird her mask and be done with this.IC: Deusui and AmberaDeusui went to Ambera."Hey Deusui!" Ambera said, "Whats up?""We need your mask," Deusui said,"Why?""Your wanted dead, I'll explain later, we need your mask as proof, Zacax is getting another one,""But who wants me dead?!""Just hand me your mask!" he asked and then Ambra gave him her mask of speed, "Zacax will give you a powerless mask till we get a new one for you. Verak, get the stuff ready!"
