IC (Desilix):"It's not me!" Desilix hissed, "They must have a different Toa of Sonics in there!"
OOC: Don't worry, it's not the first time that's happened...

"I just like to let the guys have some time to relax with the girls," Stalav states while taking a seat at a nearby table. "I get Leena all to myself during most of the day, I don't mind her having some fun with the other guys." Stalav leans in a bit closer to "Lady Luck" as he adds,"Just like she doesn't mind me...having a bit of fun as well." The Matoran chuckles before grabbing a deck of cards off of the table. "So, what'll you play?""Hope you don't mind having a short one," Leena says to Helsina with a giggle as she walks toward the private room; hand in a Le-Matoran's. -Mef Man
IC: Lumira - Makuta's RevengeI shrugged, leaning back in my seat, "'Dunno. What would you recommend?"OOC: Last post of the night, Mef. 'Night.-Void
OOC: Night.

"Poker, Go Takea Shark, whatever, really," Stalav replies with a grin.-Mef Man
ICAdrenaline filled Laki's body as he heard the warning. Who was this? Some guardian angel? Powerless observer? Traitor from the other side? He heard the sound of running feet from the other side of the wall. Enemies approaching. Didn't sound like an army, but a sizable force nonetheless. Powerful enough to do some damage. For a second, the horror of repairing the village filled his body. He had seen what Nemisis had done. That was just one man. The Le-Matoran's thoughts suddenly snapped back to a group of cruel members horribly torturing the toa of fire, before he reminded himself what was happening. A fight. And invasion. Something Laki was part of.He wouldn't let the ILS down. Laki took a few steps back from the gate, waiting and ready for invaders. He looked around the Koro, eyes open for invaders or damage or wounded. The battle hadn't started yet, but Laki was ready for when it did.
IC: Helsina"I prefer them tall," she said, "But I'll do with small,"IC: ZacaxI think the doc is gone....I got to go work Zacax got his sword out and used I as a cane and walked down the stairs but fell, tumbling into the girls, he somehow didn't get hurt, thanks to his sword keeping him up.
IC: EndriinHe looked at Lumira and nodded a greeting, then went back to drinking his tea. Things move too fast around here.
IC: "A group of 8 is planning to attack the ILS, under the command of one named Vorasku. One of their number, a Toa of Sonics, betrayed them and told me. I do not know when it will come, or why, but we must tighten our defenses and be prepared for battle." Optimus said to Ledzel.OOC: PM me if you need me to respond to anything. I don't follow this RPG as much as I used to.
IC: Zacax"I am so sorry girls!" Zacax said,
IC: Auron:The Toa of fire, at the moment, was on top of a hut, laying on the roof, staring at the clouds. One of his legs wasn't on the roof, and was swaying back in forth in-tune to his humming.IC: Dalia:"Two glasses down, about a million more to go."
OOC:Mind if I timeskip?IC: Kearrstrun - Le-WahiIt didn't take him as long as he thought, sprinting in a grid-like pattern all across Le-Wahi, a little under an hour, and Kearrstrun was looking up at the construction before him. A couple seconds later, he was on the patio, looking inside. He lightly tapped the wall outside to see a figure sit up quickly, yet groggily, hardly noticeable in the darkness.IC: Angel (Treehouse, Le-Wahi)"Wow, this is great!"IC: Choi (Pala-Koro, Le-Wahi)"Oh."Choi blushed, slightly embarrassed, and began eating his salad again.-Teezy
IC: [septimus]"You'll be okay Sal, I promise."
IC: MeviAs the enemy began to emerge from the woods, Mevi almost had to stifle a laugh. Somewhere between 6 and 8 beings, she counted, as Optimus had said. One of them was evidently on the village's side, too! The Ta-Matoran had seen worse attacks in her home village. Still, even there three Toa had managed to create chaos, but they had attacked Matoran, they had the element of surprise, and they attacked from inside the gates with the goal of getting out. These beings... charged straight at a stone wall, with a force smaller than the one that had just been warned of their approach.Mevi readied her shield, which bore the insignia of the Ta-Koro Guard, and clutched the spear that had once belonged to Trakuda in the other. She quickly re-adjusted her Akaku's lens so that it returned her right eye to normal, un-zoomed vision."Hey, travelers!" she shouted to the people waiting outside the gate. "We have some hostiles incoming, so if you're not keen on fighting I suggest you leave now! We'll have our Toa of Iron let you in if you want, though, just hold on!Mevi wved for Onyx to get the travelers inside, not caring that he technically had higher rank than her, being both a Toa and an ILS member for longer than her."I dunno if we can trust them," she said, "but at least keep them safe in an iron pen or something. It'd be nice to get some spikes jutting up and downwards on the edge here, too. I don't suppose you can do the whole wall at once, but if we keep moving we can prevent them from scaling the wall with anything but flight! I believe you Toa can handle a flyer or two as well, though."

(Levarie Obed [Talking to Zacax: Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, main tavern])
But, Leena and the other females had been in the private rooms for some time. Zacax didn't even see them let alone touch them.A firm hand seized Zacax's shoulder. As Zacax looked up, he could see Levarie's cold expression on his face."I told you to obey the doctor," Levarie says while dragging the Toa back up the stairs. "Stop being a Brakas and listen or I'll have you fired. Got it?" he asks while setting down the Toa in his bed a bit roughly."Are you sure we should let them in?" Ledzel asks Mevi. "The last thing we need is an attack from the inside as well."-Mef Man
IC: Lumira - Makuta's RevengeI shrugged, "Hm, Go Takea seems more up my alley." Wait, did I really just agree to play Go Takea? What was I, a school girl?...On the other hand, it is the only card game I really know how to play, sooo..."Alright then, let's do this."-Void
IC: Onyx"I'll open the gate for them but they'll only find a cage on the other side before I seal it again." Onyx said, pointing to the hole in the wall which just appeared, along with several criss-crossing bars protruding from the inner wall to form a neat little prison. With that done, pointy iron spikes began to emerge from the wall's edge and continued in a straight line until Onyx was satisfied with his work.There was no need for any adjustments to the wall's outer layer; it was completely flat with no crevices or bumps allowing for climbing. With that out of the way, he formed a spear in his hands and watched over the travellers.
OOC: Sighs gratefully. Now I don't have to make any unrealistic poker posts. ![]()
IC(Stalav [Talking to Lumira: Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, main tavern])
Stalav couldn't help but chuckle at the woman's choice."I was joking, you know?" he says as he begins to shuffle the cards. "But, I'm up for a kid's game. It'll be a nice change of pace."-Mef Man
IC: Zacax"Well I was trying to go do my job," Zacax said,
IC: Vorasku's OrganizationVorasku and his group, having began to approach, suddenly turned, appearing to retreat. However, Tahrak, having been near the back of the group, activated his Huna, and continued to approach the village, while the rest of his group appeared to be retreating.
ICLaki moved backwards a bit more as Onyx created a hole in the gate and a small cage on the other side. Laki continued to hold his two disks at the ready. But from the shouts overhead, it didn't sound like there was much danger coming inside. Curious, Laki hurridely climbed up the wall, using handholds previous toa had made and his skills as a Le-Matoran to make it to the top. It wasn't really designed for standing, so he almost slipped off the edge onto the outside before he regained his balance. But Laki was a Le-Matoran, and had stood on far less stable things. He spun his disk loosely, and looked down on the group.To his exitement, he saw the eight turn and run away. "They are scare-retreating! We have fast-scared them!" he exclaimed, a grin breaking across his face.
IC: TahrakTahrak continued approaching Pala-Koro as the rest of the group retreated, his Huna still activated to remain unseen.
IC: Lumira - Makuta's Revenge"Well then," I said, absent-mindedly wiping some mud (Mata Nui, I hope it was mud) off of my armour, "Let's get started."-Void
OOC: Visaru, there aren't any handholds, just letting you know.
Smooth Jazz, are you going to post anything else besides your character approaching the gate? Or how close to the gate he is? We'll be able to spot his shadow at one point or another, maybe.IC: Onyx"No, that's not it." Onyx replied to Laki's excitement, not believing for a second that such a large group of powerful individuals would simply retreat upon arrival. There was something else going on...

"Your 'job' was to stay in bed and get healed," Levarie replies. "I'll have Devria or one of the other girls check on you here and there and keep you company. You'd like that, right?" the Toa asks; still hauling Zacax back up toward his room.Stalav grins as he expertly shuffles the cards; doing little tricks here and there just for show. He then proceeds to slide the cards across the table toward Lumira and the other five beings playing with them while dealing cards to himself."Five of-oh wait, what will the stakes be again?" Stalav asks.-Mef Man
OOC: Guess that hiatus will have to wait...IC: Angel (Treehouse, Le-Wahi)Angel moved over to the window, shirtless and groggy, and caught sight of Kearrstrun; resisting the urge to take out his dagger and plunge it through the protective screen protecting the small pocket of air, he sighed and ducked down so he could meet the Assistant's eyes."What is it?"IC: Nikila (Forest, Le-Wahi)Nikila slid Salvinn onto the board carefully and lifted up one edge."Someone help me out! We have to get to the village before the bleeding gets to be too much to handle!"-Teezy
IC: Zacax"I guess..." he moaned,
IC: Lii"On it." The young Toa bounded over, and lifted the other end of the board. "Let's go, Nikila."
IC (Desilix):Retreat? Why is the group retreating? Had they seen the ILS prepare for them?Desilix then heard someone walk away from the group, he naturally tuned to see who it was, but saw no one. He immediatly thought it was just a small rahi, when he noticed the shadow it cast, he could tell it was one from the group. To.. once again... warn the village of attack, he amplified the sound of the invisable intruders footsteps, sending the sound of each crunched leaf to the village, so make it sound as if the intruder was walking right next to the heads of anyone standing near the gate. He just hoped that other Toa of sonics didn't catch on... But he had a plan if he did.

"Now, just wait right here and Devria will be with you after she finishes her date," Levarie states after helping Zacax back in bed. "Just relax and chew on those herbs," he adds. The Toa of Air walks out of the room and locks the door behind him.-Mef Man
IC: Zacax"Okay..." Zacax moaned as he ate the bitter herbs,
IC: Kearrstrun - Le-Wahi - TreehouseKearrstrun didn't change anything about the way he stood, or his face, "How did you get Dorian out of your mind?"The Toa of sonics stood motionless, Angelus would know why he was asking, but Kearrstrun didn't want to vocalize it. It might be better if Angelus stayed away from them as long as he could. They needed the time off.
OOC: Tairel, Levarie Obed, Leena, Devria Collette, and Susavree Nooma open for interaction. Ga'mal Auldron to Ko-Wahi.

"That boy is as stubborn as a Brakas," Levarie sighs to himself as he begins to walk downstairs.Tairel sips a glass of wine; leaning back in his chair near the card table. He was thinking about joining, but he wasn't a betting man...-Mef Man
IC: ZacaxZacax grabbed his journal and started to add more stuff to it. He would do this often, once every week, where he would write the highlights of his journies.
IC: Lumira - Makuta's RevengeI picked up my cards, careful to keep them hidden from prying eyes, "How about five widgets each, in the pot? Winner comes out thirty widgets richer."-Void
IC(Stalav [Talking to Lumira: Outskirts of Le-Koro, Makuta's Revenge Tavern, main tavern])
Stalav chuckles a bit, not expecting such low stakes."Sure. No chips on my Mask, then," he says while pulling out five widgets and tossing them in the center of the table. His friends do the same as they wait for Lumira.-Mef Man
IC: ZacaxSpeaking of chips, Zacax was checking his mask for any cracks and he found that a small chunk broke off..."Oh no....." he said, "Thats not good......"
IC: Lumira - Makuta's Revenge, Le-KoroI tossed in the correct amount of widgets, before leaning back in my chair, "So, would you like to first, or shall I? Or perhaps another of these fine people?"-Void
IC: Angel (Treehouse, Le-Wahi)Angel's heart shattered."There was...a ritual...in Dor's journal. It requires another soul to be there, someone to fill in the void left by the presence inside your mind. I used Kinvex."IC: Nikila (Forest, Le-Wahi)"Alright, let's do this," she said, moving the board to the inn. They'd need a place to keep Salvinn until a doctor came...-Teezy
IC: Draeverian JoskiirDraeverain shifted slightly after hearing Atvin's words about the turaga being safe but under some influence. Something clung to the back of his mind even as his mouth opened to declare his wish to view his elder. What right do I have? I have killed many and saved none. Mouth closed with a slow snap. Shoulders slumped he picked Rivet up from the grass where she'd fallen and hobbled back up the bank to the muddy road. "Well, I have something that needs addressing," Draeverian spoke rationally, his tone much calmer, but with a hint of depression. "That terrorist Kohra needs arresting, and that as my duty is the best thing. I will not rest until I have her bound in chains and apologizing for the murders she's made again and again."His head swung towards where Mariko's silvery outline lay. "I know you wish to wait for your brethren, and I bid you best of luck. Keep in touch, in case you need a warrior with some pluck." He smiled at the last rhyme. That was pretty funny. Pluck huh? With a shift in stride, he pushed himself around and headed towards the gate, his backpack slung over one shoulder and frayed from the travels previous. Draeverian pushed back off towards the main gate. If the leader of this village had left, then there was only one thing to do: bite the pain and continue to ta-koro. OOC: Draeverian to Ta-koro??
IC: Vorasku's OrganizationTahrak neared the gate, about 10 feet away. He knew they would be able to see his shadow at this point, but that was a risk he had to take. Meanwhile, as the group retreated, Kontarok noticed that Tahrak's footsteps were louder then usual. "Do you know why he sounds so loud?" he asked Desilix, knowing he was the only other Toa of sonics in the group.
