IC: "No, I don't know Ta-Koro very well.IC: Feongulf - "Excellent," Feingulf said, taking a couple steps towards the door. "Would you know anywhere we would use as a base while we consider our plans?"
IC: DeusuiDeusui got punched but then grabbed the Skakdi's wrist, "Want help or not?"
OOC: It seems Onarax has gone offline again.IC (Avya)The list of weapons I'd tried had grown longer and longer, but the list of weapons I felt comfortable with had stayed around zero. I had the weirdest feeling that there was a blade out there that would feel right, but so far I'd had no results.The shopkeeper was a mess, to be honest. I was just trying things out, and I guess he'd expected me to know exactly what I wanted and buy it. I felt a little guilty, because, well, I didn't really have any money, so I couldn't buy anything even if I found the perfect weapon.Axes, maces, cudgels, scimitars, zweihanders, bows and arrows, claws, hooks, disk launchers... the list went on, but everything felt off. I was starting to wonder if my mind was just playing tricks on me, convincing me that there was some weapon I was already experienced with when, in reality, I really didn't have experience with anything.Then the shopkeeper handed me a sword.Not a greatsword, like the few others I'd tried. Everyone around here seemed to have a thing for big swords, but they didn't work for me. This one was still long enough to provide a decent reach, but it was shorter than your typical greatsword, allowing more speed. I picked it up with one hand a tentatively swung it a few times. It felt perfect. Balanced and controlled. I could use it with two hands, allowing for more power, but it was light and short enough to be wielded with one hand. A hand-and-a-half sword. Awesome."So, will you be buying that?" the shopkeeper asked, obviously irritated and at his wits' end. "I'm closing soon."I smiled sheepishly. "Actually... I don't have any money. I was just-""What?" the shopkeeper stared at me, his left cheek twitching. "You've wasted the last hour of my life and you have no money?"I shrugged. What else could I do?"Get out!" he screamed. "Get out of my store and never come back! Get out!"I started to put the sword back, but he was already pushing me out the door. "Take it!" he cried. "Take it, just take it and leave! Just never come back! Get out! Go!"Then I was outside, and the door had slammed shut behind me.
IC (Grata):"Grata help himself" Grata, seeing that the Toa was grabbing his wrist, jerked his arm backwards, sending Deusuis' head towards Gratas' raised knee.
IC: Deusui Deusui hit his head on the knee and fell, but then got back up and placed his hands on he skakdi's ears.
IC (Grata):Grata yelled "Get off of Grata!!" and fired his laser vision at the Toa again.
IC: KorvusKorvus noticed the Toa and Skakdi fighting and hurried over."Hey, HEY!" he shouted, "do we have a problem here?"OOC: that's you, Zacax and TOV.
IC: DeusuiDeusui jumped away and turned to Korvus, "Why hello," he said to Korvus
IC: Korvus"I know you!" Korvus growled, drawing his katanas. He pointed one at each of the assailants. "If you do not cease and desist immediately, you will both be under arrest," he commanded.
IC: Deusui"I was trying to reason with him and he attacked!" Deusui said, "I didnt pick a fight I swear!"
IC: Korvus"You'd better be telling the truth," Korvus warned, "after all, who's going to pay your bail this time?"He turned to the Skakdi."And you," he said, "is this true?"
IC (Grata):Angered by the Matoran disturbing his battle, Grata was determined to finish the battle quickly. While the Toa was talking to the Matoran, he swung his axe at the Toa behind his back.
IC: Deusui"DUCK!" he said bringing Korvus to TE ground along with him, "I was asking why he wanted to destroy and then I told him he shouldn't and he or ticked!"
IC: KorvusKorvus leaped up in the air and avoided both the axe and Deusui."Sir," he declared to the Skakdi, "I am placing you under arrest for assaulting a Toa. Any further hostile actions will warrant a harsher punishment."
IC (Grata):Grata, now outnumbered, surrendered. He may not be to bright, but he knew that there would be no way out with violence."You can arrest Grata, but Grata never stays arrested"
IC: Deusui"So many skakdi here in Ta-Koro..." Deusui said,
IC: Korvus"Oh," Korvus said, nodding, "we'll see about that."He cuffed the Skakdi and lead him to the prison."This one assaulted a Toa," he told the guards, "and he thinks he won't stay in here for long. Put him in a maximum security cell for...let's see..."The Matoran thought for a minute before saying,"A month."he handed his prisoner to the guards, who took him to a cell with reinforced walls and a door made entirely out of metal with only a small rectangular hole in it for air and food. He was thrown in and the door was locked.
IC: Deusui"Hey do you know of a Zyke?" he asked Korvus
IC: Korvus"Look," Korvus replied, "I already told you: I haven't heard of him."
IC: Deusui"Okay just asking," he said, "I owe you one," he said and then went to the bar.
IC (Grata):This was a familliar enviroment for Grata, so he sat back in the corner of his cell, took out a rock, and started sharpening his axe to pass the time.
OOC: I forgot about NEX, sorry guys.IC(Kaerhi): Kaerhi followed Hatann.OOC: It's lame, but needed.
IC(PS): "Okay, okay, I might know how to fix this."The Seer grabbed a bit of cloth from off the table, and began to tie the arm back to the matoran's body."YOU SUCK! I SHOULD HAVE STABBED YOU WHEN YOU CAME IN!""Sorry about slicing your arm off! I didn't mean to drop my sword into your arm...well, erm...bye!" The toa ran off as fast as he could, ensuring his hat wouldn't fall off as he did.
IC: DeusuiDeusui entered the bar and saw the two still fighting... "Want me to blast another sonic wave in your ears?"
IC(PS): "AH! Okay, please, I didn't mean to cut off his arm! IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!""I hate you so much!""I figured that!"
IC: Deusui"Get some medical attention for that stat then!" he said, "Insted of squabbling about who hates each other the most!"
IC(PS): "I was going to do that now that I've secured the arm in place, but then you came up here and started talking at me! Good day to you, SIR!" The toa dashed out towards a hut with a medical cross on it.
IC: Amaris, Ta-Koro"Helpful how?" Amaris asked, growing impatient. If this Toa couldn't give a straight answer, she had no interest in joining his crew. "If you so much as begin to say 'entertainment'..." She warned, narrowing her eyes.IC-Corik:Corik shrugged. "You could be helpful."
IC: Feongulf -Feongulf grimaced. "Neither do I, that makes things more difficult. We'll have to find a way to raise some cash and them rent some random cliched abandoned warehouse-place." She hailed the waiter and ordered drinks for herself and Pantak. Best to try and not look suspicious, at least, as non-suspicious as a skakdi and a cloaked matoran talking in a bar can be."Anywhere you know think we might actually succeed at robbing?" she said, watching the back of the waiter as she left. Unlikely you'll have any sort of useful answer, but I can at least give it a try. . ."No, I don't know Ta-Koro very well.
IC-Corik:Corik's eyes sparkled brightly, and he smiled like an innocent child."Is there anything wrong with entertainment?" He asked, and then laughed. "But no, not like that. We could always use experienced fighters on the ship, and I can tell from your looks you're probably very experienced."
IC: Amaris, Ta-KoroAmaris did not smile in return. "So you're recruiting me as a fighter..." She asked, pausing to look Corik up and down. "I accept, against my better judgment."
IC-Corik:"Not just a fighter, mind you," Corik said. "Ships always need worked on. No matter how well they were made, they always need it." He paused for a moment."Always."
IC(Yrano): "Are you an alcoholic?" Yrano asked his new Co-Captain. He didn't have a problem with alcoholics, he just frowned on them.
IC: Isfel picked up a butterfly sword, but then noticed the matching one sitting right beside it. "Sorry," he told Stronin. "I'm more of an asymmetrical guy myself. I start doing everything symmetrical and people'll start thinking I'm compensating for..." He trailed off. "Hey wait a second. That girl's not here anymore. If I remember correctly, she had a nice looking dagger." He started to leave, calling to Stronin as he ran. "I might be back soon!" IC: Kamaehu sighed, laying the halberd against the wall nearest him. "I had no fear of that. If I were attacked with a halberd in this bar I would be in little danger. Besides, were they to flee, my sword would find them faster than they can run."
OOC: Those were after the rubble. I'll let it go this time. He's not under rubble anymore, remember? Vitiate freed him. Then he pulled a dirty trick while blaspheming. IC: Nemesis put his hands behind his head. "I'll go if you let my partner come too." He, while doing that, charged up energy for a large elemental attack as he stalled.
IC: DeusuiDeusui left the bar and went to Kini-Nui, to train and discover.OOC: Deusui to Kini Nui
OOC: You can't put your hands behind your head. Garren is there, with a sword to your neck. Move, and he slits it.IC: Garren didn't trust this toa. He unloaded elemental energy at point-blank range into the toa, charging him with enough energy to knock out a full-grown Kane-Ra. "Mortos" he whispered.-Bane
IC: "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIAAAAARRGGGGHAAAK!" Nemesis fell forward, knocked out.OOC: LOL. I knew something like this would happen at one point or another, but I expected it to take a lot longer.
IC:KaiThe Vortixx crashed down right next to Xare and Kun, who in turn stared at him while he struggled to get up. "Hey there Xare. I take it the mission was a success?"
IC: [stronin]"Uh, sure?"
