They found out what happened, all right, though it wasn't pleasant and the knowledge cost 'em dear.

Seems a group called the Void Engineers were monkeying around with a device called a Space Time Oscillation Bomb. Rigged it up until it did to every universe around what the Calamity did to mine. Well, not exactly. They didn't have to deal with having to watch every step they took. Instead they got holes in reality opening up everywhere, belchin' out monsters, intruders, explorers, and self-centered child-gods called SUEs. Real recipe for chaos there.

They found out a Void Engineers ship used the bomb as a last ditch attempt to win a losin' battle against some abomination of a ship that'd left home and was causing trouble for all the neighbors. A warship from a nasty group of folks called New Chaos. Well, guess it didn't work out quite as intended. The Void Engineers and New Chaos quickly found out both were a bit too close to each other for their liking and got to doing what most nations do when they get that way. War. And both were scrabblin' to find another bomb like the one that turned so many worlds upside down.

Meanwhile, Task Force 38 was rallying what remnants of their organization they could, savin' bases, repairing worlds, and just about knocking the teeth outta any SUE they laid hands on.

Sometimes a man gets bored with the same old way of doings things and wants to try something new. If you don't like it, go boot up your computin' machine and go mess around with the Kid some more. He's been looking a little down lately, might be he could use a pick-me up.

>>21464224
However, SUEs and the growing war between New Chaos and the Engineers weren't the only problems. Task Force 38 caught wind of a conspiracy in the Guard's own ranks that'd been brewing for a long, long time. They also found out the STOB's detonation drew a lot of attention they really could've done without.

Like a long lost brother who you never got along with, this huge army called the Great Crusade came knockin'. Boys in the Black Ops branch of the Guard didn't like that and the puppeteer behind 'em saw an opportunity she couldn't resist. Sparked a war between the Guard and the Crusade, then sparked a civil war in the Guard itself just to make things interesting.

With the Guard tearing itself apart even while under siege from every front during a crisis, the fate of a lot more worlds than one are on the shoulders of Task Force 38... and some guy called Yellowman. But we'll get to him later.

Right now the Force is putting the hurt on a SUE who tried to usurp the power of Nyarlhotep himself, along with the Greek pantheon and about fifty odd more recent franchises to boot. They been doin' a good job so far, but the fight ain't over yet.

But one way or another, it will be soon.

>Leave Narration On

How well is MechaGodzilla and Char doing against the Eva's?
How many disintegration turrets are left on the Floating Palace?
Has the Mikasa finished drilling into the wall?

>>21464445
While you decide on that, I guess I'd better give you the low down on the ground.

The Arch SUE's name is Chaosbringer and he's on the run after the Force's main strike team put the boot to his slimy behind. Avatar's gone ethereal-like and went after him. Another team freed a lovely young thing called Tsunami and she went after to help. While the air trembles with the struggle of gods invisible behind it, a rescue team's breaking into the dark deity's palace to bring out who they can find.

Task Force 38's sent out MechaGodzilla with a few fancy upgrades to provide a nice big distraction for the remains of the planet's armed forces after a particular nasty devastation by the army of ghosts.

I did mention the army of ghosts, right? Brilliant but risky move, using the team's most powerful psychics and magic users to call on the spirit of everyone slain by Chaosbringer to rise again and take vengeance. Worked like a charm, though. Every single base worked for the scumbag is beset with hordes of hungry spooks. Seems like the bastard killed a lot of people.

With Mecha-Godzilla facing down some corrupted EVA units and a horde of aircraft and a strike team just entered that dark palace, that's where we're at now.

>>21464508
Also, use the Indefatigable's sensors to run a multiphasic scan of the ECM field to find the extent of the field and use it to find the center of the field.
That will be the location of the ECM generator. Then load a photon torpedo with a dialed down warheah (regular photon grenade rather than an actual antimatter warhead) with a multiphasic scanning sensor.

Photon torpedoes can burrow into a planet's crust.

Using the scan results, a photon torpedo can home in on the ECM generator.

>>21464508
There's other Narrators that can do more than jabber, but I guess this'll be my contribution.

The Mikasa broke through that wall like a great big metal fang, spinning and hissin' all the while. Looks like it breached into some sort of big underground arena. No one in it now, though.

>>21464754
Yeah. He is.

That photon torpedo flies down, shot blind at the center of the ECM field. Goes up in a big column of fire as a nice little chunk of Tokyo just sort of transforms into flames and rubble. The ECM field doesn't go as quietly, failsafes triggering as back up generators activate. But they're just pale imitations of whatever that first one was, more annoyance to the gunners than a defense.

Another SY-3 flying superweapon goes down to the turrets before the last of the palace's defenses are neutralized. Maybe them dice playin' gods feel sorry for the team, though. The Arbiter makes it to Mecha-Godzilla just in time to pop that red EVA unit in an unpoppable bubble.

Mecha-Godzilla grabs Unit 00 by the arms and then bites into its neck, shearing through many layers of armor with its mechanical jaws. Not about to let a chance like that go to waste, the big machine's eyebeams sizzle to life and bore through the enemy. Those beams hit something that ain't meant to be hit and the EVA unit folds, its red friend unable to even watch.

You gotta feel sorry for the pilots of those jets. Char rips through them like they were clouds of Peckers for all the damage they do. A few think to fire their missiles at the bigger target, but even with the damage he's sustained, MG doesn't pay much heed to that. Lotta people die for nothing. Takes a few more futile waves before the army girls figure out they're in over their heads and pull back. Bombin' the ghosts don't do no good neither. Doesn't matter what kind of heat you're dropping if you can dematerialize with a thought.

Let's get back to the Mikasa. The Securitrons she was loaded up with are swarming that cold stone arena by now. The hardhat's bringing up his gizmos, teleporter first, then sentry. His ghostly hologram buddies are doing the same when the main strike team forms up and waits for the order to head out. The probe droids beep and flash their lights, as anxious to begin as a machine can get, I guess.

Well. Sometimes even a Narrator has to take a second and collect his thoughts.

Them Aurors might be the swiss army knives of magic, but that don't mean they're always as sharp as they'd like. A few of the team thought it was pretty strange that no one was showing up to fight, but it didn't click that the Aurors had fouled up the reading until the sound of a gate clicking shut echoed in the long hall.

Seems like the Aurors had triggered a sort of magical trap for the unwary trying to navigate in the maze-like underchambers of the palace. They'd gotten themselves led right into a large hall that was more of a Killing Floor. Gas starts filling up the room as the statues set into niches along the walls stir to life and stomp towards the team.

The gas trap ain't so much a problem thanks to the Runners. Isel borrows a Securitron to work with and coordinates with his team to locate and close off each pipe venting the poison in the chamber with gatling lasers. The White Mages throw around enough Esunas to keep everyone healthy until it's taken care of. The White Mages haven't earned their reputation in the Task Force as peerless medics for nothing, after all.

The Golems, though, they're a harder rock to break. The Securitrons roll forward and launch a rocket barrage that takes a lot of the fight out of them, but SUEs don't play fair. These golems are going to take a bit more punishing before they quit. Ain't no room to run, either. Things might get ugly, but the team's seen worse.

This was the plan, though some people have changed?

"Everything is similar in Code"
Isel's hacking abilities become far more broad then before as he has been researching the many different meta robots and drones that've been in the task force. In theory, he could take control over anything mechanical even those of advance sentient AIs (Though he chooses not to on his 'comrades' aboard the ship after thinking aloud about it when HK50 passed by)

>>21466148
Appearantly. Why is Isel on the ground, he's Anti-Hacker team. Though, nothing we can do about that now.

Also, aren't the Securitrons suppose to be inside the Mikasa as a decoy, then Al'kesh 6 transports the breakout team in.

And then BLU's gear isn't listed. Does that mean I can make shit up right now for what they're using?

>>21466144
Aurors cast Arresto Momentum to slow down the golems.
DG's use Mass Rifles on the Golems, others use phaser rifles at max power, Shadowrunners try holy water squirtguns; if holy water is no good, have the mages/shamans use Mana Bolts and the Samurais use phasers. Pharaoh Man, use your Buster Cannon against the golems.
BLU Team uses their explosive weapons; Demo, Soldier. Spy, Engineer, stay back. Heavy, help defend the Medic. Medic, use your Medigun to help the White Mages.

Abjurers, cast Magic Missiles (low-power, but plentiful; want to save more powerful spells for boss fights).
Psions, use Energy Push to push the golems back.

Gondegal, try to use intangibility to try to attack the animating force of the golems.

Probe Droids, VP-98/99, fall back with the White Mages. White Mages, cast Cure 2's, Raises as necessary.

Skull Man, defend the White Mages.

Isel, use Puppetmaster to keep the Securitrons coordinated.

>>21466235
>Isel on the ground
What? Why the fuck would he be on the ground, when he can use his Rigger skills remotely through subspace communicators?
The Securitrons (Decoy Team) were to deploy out of the Mikasa to set up a beachhead.
Decoy Team and Breakout Team already made a beachhead, that's where we are now.

As for BLU Team, they have all of their TF2 gear; that's clearly stated on their Inventory entry.

>>21466235
He's not on the ground, he's 'telecommuting' through a Controlled Securitron.

The plan reads that the Securitrons make a beachhead, then some go with the group.

You can equip BLU with whatever you want so long as it's one of their TF2 items.

>>21466271
Hrm. I didn't know that he could use his rigger skills remotely. Nix that then.

Also, they may have all their gear but they can't equip it all at the same time. Don't they need to die and be on the respawn screen to switch it?

>>21466235
Isel is with the rest of the Anti-Hacker Team on the AUH. He's controlling the Securitrons remotely. I mean, really, why would he need to be there when he's a remote-operations specialist?

Also, the Securitrons deployed into the area once the Mikasa broke through the outer wall, as was specifically planned for, and is what happened.

BLU's gear doesn't need to be listed since they have all of their TF2 gear. Just say what weapon specifically they should use.

>>21466312
>I didn't know that he could use his rigger skills remotely.
What the hell did you think a Drone Rigger was? Even if he was a Vehicle Rigger, that doesn't mean he can't remotely control a vehicle, either.
I mean, this is basic Shadowrun stuff that anyone on /tg/ should have picked up.

>>21466694

Disagreement for loadout:

Pyro:

>Degreaser
Fastest weapon switch with 10% burn and 20% afterburn damage penalty; still has airblast

>Axetinguisher
Guaranteed crit on hit while target is flaming. Ignite and then switch to melee and just crit away. Ubers preferred, but not required.

OR

>Neon Annihilator

Guaranteed crits against wet targets. Have one of the mages cast a water spell over a wide range of targets and then have the pyro run in with an uber and just smack everything for instant crits. Great for tight groupings.

>>21466930
Have Sniper Jarate them, that way the Neon Annihilator works better.

Although, I think that the Engineer would be better served with the Widowmaker to keep up his metal supply.

>>21466912
You mean empower recruited agents from other metaverses? Like how we've taken a young girl and helped her become capable of rending starships asunder with her mind? Those guys are put through harsh training and washout rate is controlled with mindwipes. If we read hazardous instability from them we would've acted already. Last i heard the Doctor was hob nobbing around them, so good enough for me.

>>21466930
I think I like fire better than water. I vote Axetinguisher with the Degreaser. Although personally I love the Backburner.

>>21466912
At least they're not the PPC!

>>21466930
The thing is, I don't want Pyro in Melee. The things we usually get into Melee fights will destroy the chubby little flamer. He needs to sit back and take potshots with his Hadoken.

The Rainblower gives him access to Armageddon, and the Sharpened Volcano Fragment sets things it hits on fire. Both of which allow him to survive much better in melee.

The only thing I can see giving him in melee instead of the Fragment is the Powerjack, which heals him whenever he kills something.

>>21466968
Sniper isn't here, he's fighting Chaosbringer. This is pretty much just for the Break Out mission. If we need to make it long term we can, and we can switch gear between missions/respawn.

We're fighting golems, though. SUE-empowered ones at that. I don't see fire or regular bullets doing much against them.

Also, all members of the Breakout Team have Advanced Bio-Stabilization Masks. Don't forget that.

>>21466696

Also disagree on medic:

>Blutsauger
+3 heal to self on hit. Only auto heal +1-4/sec
The cross bow is a very situational weapon. I can't really see a situation where we would stop healing with a medigun and start sniping for longer range targets either for healing or damage. The bluts will keep us alive if we get to the point where we have to start shooting.

>Amputator
Heals all friendly targets on taunt.

Ubersaw is fine if you were planning to have the medic stab stuff (or have the team hold stuff for him to stab). I could actually see a loophole where the mages could keep an enemy just barely healed and restrained while the medic just kept building up the uber. Hell, we could even see if just stabbing a piece of enemy flesh that is "alive" would count for the charge. Never be without an uber! But I digress. Amputator is better here for a quick AOE heal if the dispenser/white mages are busy. Otherwise, the medic is just spamming heals on one person at a time with the medigun. Amputator is good for when we need a bunch of tightly group people fixed up quickly.

>>21467056
Plus with the White Mages, I think we're safe from the poison. The Golems are the real threat. Argh, I wish we had Earthbenders or something.

Golems. . .

Depending on the type, a simple <Stone to Mud> spell can do wonders at making them more easily killable. If they're Jewish style Golems, simply aim for the forehead and look for a symbol that says "אמת" and destroy the last symbol. . .

>>21467094
I dunno, i dont think we're dealing with jewish golems here, Chaosbringer doesnt seem the godly type unless there's a goddess to fuck. those things are the real deal, singlehandedly taken on who armies.

These things? Probably piles of rocks with enough shitty magic pumped into them to make them move and punch.

>>21466993

Fair enough. It just depends on how you want to attack. Relying on the Armageddon taunt is risky though. It takes a while to perform and the pyro will be vulnerable during that time unless ubered. I see the pyro as a charge in and burn everything class. The degreaser would let him juggle single targets to keep them from fighting back and then hit them with the axe for max damage while they are burning. If we are in an enclosed space, that makes more sense to me that going for the taunt/volcano approach. I am not saying one is better than the other, just depends on the conditions/how aggressive we want to be.

>>21467114
Knowing the background story, they could be either Jewish or Greek golems. Either way we need to use weapons that will work on enemies made from stone.
Pyro isn't going to be of too much use here.

>>21467094

Well, IF we can turn them to mud, that is technically "wet". The pyros guaranteed crits with the Neon Annihilator suddenly look a lot more appealing.

Alternately, do we have anyone who can cast stone to flesh? Might make the golems a bit easier to damage, provided they are susceptible to the spell. If they are not rocks, but horrible fleshy abominations, bullets might work better.

>>21467178
And fire would work much better, as well. We need to determine if we can do either of these, first.

>>21467178
lvl 6 spell, our abjurers should be able to cast somewhere between 2 and 4 of them each, depending on how they prepared their spells. I'm
guessing we may have about 6 of the spells.

However, if they are closer to D&D golems, Stone to Mud would work better. Stone to flesh just removes the golem magic resistance.

>>21467205
depending on how they're built at least. Some turn into flesh golems, others just lose magic resistance.

Kinda a crapshoot, but it should help at least.

>>21467178
The Abjurers could cast stone to flesh, but do we want to use up their 6th level spells already?
Also, each cast will only affect 1 golem, and we don't know how many golems there are.

>>21467220
The best would be to have 1 Abjurer cast Stone to Mud on a golem. If it works, the other Abjurers can join in.
If Chaosbringer warded them somehow, then we use Magic Missiles and other standbys.

>>21467262

Really, that is a bit of an unknown at the moment. We will have to see how the combat round goes and decide if we need to burn those spells now. It would be nice to save them, but keeping our people alive longer is more important.

That being said, I don't have a problem trying stone=>mud right off the bat. Even if we only get one weakened, it will help our odds and opens up other avenues for attack.

>>21467262
That is a significant problem. I vote we reserve the 6th level spells until we know just what we're dealing with. Besides, we might need hard hitting spells even further in. In the meantime: Come back to us, OP! We need to know things!

>>21467079
Blutsauger isn't bad, I picked the Crusader Crossbow though for it's power if he ever did get into range. And I was thinking about Amputator, but we already have the White Mages and shit for mass healing.

>>21467128
Armageddon to start then opening with the Axtinguisher would be useful.

>>21467402

>And I was thinking about Amputator, but we already have the White Mages and shit for mass healing

Yeah, but I am thinking about how the medic is being used here. He shouldn't ever be in a situation where he needs to start stabbing things. Yes it is nice he would charge his uber while attacking, but short of doing execution style taunts on immobilized enemies, there is a much higher chance of him just being killed and losing ANY charge he had if he gets within melee range. The most realistic scenario is he just hangs back and keeps healing until he has a charge. And while the white mages are excellent at mass heals, having another AOE heal on hand for nearby targets I think would be more appropriate given the support role he is playing. If he was going the combat medic route, or we had another medic to uber-chain, I think it would agree with the ubersaw.

>Armageddon to start then opening with the Axtinguisher would be useful.

Still concerned with the taunt timer, but it could work. Not necessarily my first choice since the pyro will need to be right in the middle of them anyway. If we are that close there are better options for doing damage. The real question now is "Will these things burn?" and "How resistant are they to dakka?"

Well that plan don't work out so well. The BLU mercs are expendable. They know it and they don't care. That Scout, his cockiness gets the better of him. Chugs that punch of his and tries to run around the golems, distractin' them. Works for a few seconds. Then he's a smear on the stone floor. Soldier fares better, has that banner of his rally the troops, then gets to zapping with that weird alien contraption he found. Manages to take down one of the golems before one gets him, then takes that one down with him with those grenades of his.

That Heavy, he fires that gun of his until the ammo runs dry, then takes a swing at one of the golems. The golem swings back. Not even the medic can fix the pulp his head becomes. And he's soon to follow. Spy, Engineer, and Demo, they make it, though. Demo even grabs some revenge for his friends with concentrated grenade spam.

The Securitrons do a bit better, launching those shoulder rockets of theirs like an artillery line. A lot of golems turn to rubble, but a lot more keep coming.

Fate's not being any kinder than those Golems are.

Skull Man's shields stop a golem from charging the healer lines as the Robot Master himself engages and destroys the three that try to get past him. He takes a beating for his troubles, though.

Gondegal, he searches for some mystical thing to end the battle in one blow. Ain't no such luck.

The Probe Droids, they just sit in the shadows, occasionally snapping off a blaster bolt.

Psions manage to push back the golem offensive long enough for the Abjurers to get off a magic missile barrage, and for the Securitrons to get off a regular missile barrage. Between the Psions are the Securitrons interposing themselves, no one else dies. A few of the robots are scrap fit for the Yard, though. And more than a few of the casters are nursing bruises.

Hercules, produce 2 Repair Scarabs.
Then continue production of YVH Droids and Securitrons, 2 YVH and 2 Securitrons. 4 pads means 2 of each every 3-4 seconds.

Engineering Holograms, set up a large size Pattern Enhancer Field, big enough to accommadate the Scarabs.

Rodger Young, beam the Scarabs into the Pattern Enhancer Field.
Scarabs, repair Skull Man and other robots.
Rodger Young, after the Scarabs, begin continuous beaming of Securitron and YVH droids made by the Hercules into the Pattern Enhancer Field.

Once Demo opens up a way out, move out into the Palace dungeons.

>>21468037

In addition, on the outside, have the Hercules produce 2 Scavenge Scarabs and 1 Behemoth Scavenge/Salvage unit. Rodger Young beams them down to outside the area of MechaGodzilla's fight.
They hoover up debris as resource units, and the Behemoth will provide repairs.

MechaGodzilla and Char target Eva02 for when it comes out of the Stasis Field.

TIE Defender squadron, provide them cover from enemy fighters.

R-Types, rendezvous with the rest of the Escort Squadron; provide top-cover for the Mikasa.

Inside the palace is too small for them repair Scarabs to get around. The attack droids, though, they come streaming through no problems.

A few patrols of cyclopses stumble on the turret defenses set up by the holograms.

They don't make it.

Demoman blows open the door in a hail of stone shrapnel as the Aurors attempt to re-acquire that pretty little target of theirs.

>>21468132
The Repair Scarabs are actually supposed to stay within the Arena. Once they repair our machine troops and Heroes, they turn their nano-repair beam on the Mikasa.
It was indicated that this was a colloseum, so I assumed that there was enough space for the Scarabs to be beamed in, even if they don't move.

Mecha-Godzilla and Char alpha strike the already damaged Unit 002 into oblivion, but it manages to get in one last good prog knife strike.

A blur of grey and red darts from the wreckage of EVA 00 and latches onto Mecha-Godzilla's hull. The form of a mutated Rei is seen using a Red Power Ring to burn through the mecha's space titanium armor. Char is swift to splatter her with a beam barrage that overwhelms the force-shield the ring can summon, but Mecha Godzilla takes moderate damage as a result.

The machine itself is heavily damaged at this point, with some repairs too deep to be repaired by anything other than the hangar facilities. However, the enemy mecha have been destroyed, and the armor and fighters are in full retreat.

>>21468303
I enjoyed the narration style. Keep it for a while.

We might run into other corrupted characters while down here.
I remember reading the bastard offspring of Chaosbringer and Queen Ecstasy happily torturing Chibi.

I also wonder if we should capture some natives of this world, while chaosbringer gave Usagi the spell. She was the one who cast it. Its it the same as mind rape?

>>21470980
>corrupted characters
Ah yes. There's still:
Kitsune (Love Hina)
Makoto (Love Hina)
Rikku (FFX-2)
Ryoko (Tenchi Muyo)
Washu (Tenchi Muyo)
Soi Fon (Bleach)

These are all corrupted and are to be engaged with extreme care, as they are all Infected.
There's two more, one character from Yu-Gi-Oh, and another from FFX-2. I can't remember their names.

For un-Infected but still enemy:
Kiyone (Tenchi Muyo)
Kaolla Su (Love Hina)

Kiyone is dangerous, but I believe she'll go down like any other Jedi when we Order 66 her.
Su, our Hacker Team wants a rematch, and they've got Federation computer algorithms backing them this time.

As you said, there's still Aeris (Chaosbringer's child and a target for termination with extreme prejudice), and Bliss (the evil side of Chibi Usa given form; I think this resulted in Chibi Usa's perma-death).

Now, there's un-Infected, enemy, but possibly open to defection:
Paine (FFX-2), currently a general in Chaosbringer's armies.
Yami (Yu-Gi-Oh), also a general in Chaosbringer's armies.

They may be open to defection, as they still both hate Chaosbringer, and even better are not corrupted (except that Yami's mind was transferred into the body of a girl).

>same as mind rape
Yes, I'd say so. Their minds were all altered to accept this new existence.
Maybe we could try to capture some and put them into the brigs of the AUH, Guardian, and Relentless, in order to administer the SUE-Cure, but that's only 10,000 or so, out of a population of millions. It's simply not feasible.

And we need to concentrate the task force's resources on terminating the SUE and his points of power, reality distortions, and the securing of Canon-important individuals (though I'm not sure if we could even repair some of the Canons he's damaged).

>cure

I know that trying to cure the infection is impractical by conventional means. The SUE cure requires long term treatment. However we could get some tissue and blood sample, figure how the virus propagates and configure the Anti-viral nanomachines to better fight the invention.

Well if Chibi Usa has suffered perma-death that throws a spanner in the works for fixing this world.

Oh and prepare yourselves when you go down to the labs, there is one person there that would require copous amounts of surgery in order to return back to normal.

>>21471987
We know the infection vector, and while it's true that it's a retro-virus, there's still a magic component to it. That's why the nanite immuno-booster shots we gave our troops only slowed down the infection, rather than stopping it completely.

Well, there's actually two. Ayeka and Tenchi. Though Tenchi should be up and about with a couple Cure 4's, Ayeka is going to require a fully-functioning med-bay and the attentions of a Federation EMH and Doc Lazarus.
We'll have to check if the med-bay on the Storm is back in working order; the one on the Indefatigable is too small and under-equipped, the ones on the Relentless and Guardian aren't advanced enough, and the one on the All Under Heaven was trashed by Mihoshi and isn't repaired yet.

>>21468390

Could we recruit Rucks? He's a Mancer, one of the top scientist/engineers of that world. He'd be useful in a fight too, with his military experience.

>>21472488
Interesting idea. Maybe we could even recruit the Kid, too! Or at least get some Caelondian tech. Did I spell that right?

>>21471987
Or perhaps a restoration spell.

Thinking about recruiting, we could try to recruit Yuna when she has had a reasonable amount of time recovering after rescue.

Considering that she has nothing to go back to, seeing that we can't true rez tidus because he was never really alive in the first place and all that is left of Spira are the Ronso (Kimahri died off screen), the Hypello (who apparently hate humans because they released sin), whoever the hell the musician guys are and enough fiends that the place is virtually inhospitable.

On the other hand, the trama could be too deep and she doesn't want to fight anymore.

Luck ain't with or against the team this time, but they've got firepower and smarts on their side. That's usually enough.

The cyclops squad is actually used to dealing with guns by now. They ain't used to dealing with combat droids. The Securitrons gatling lasers and shoulder rockets manage to turn a bunch of 'em into a fine mist before the YVH droids even manage to reinforce the team and send burning bolts into the enemy. With BLU flankin' and the casters throwing around puddles of grease and webs, there's just not a lot they can manage. Few times they manage to land a hit, the white mages erase the injuries. They crush a Securitron, another ports in to take its place. They try to take out the White Mages, that Skull fella is there with burning plasma and grinning death's head shields to tell 'em no in his own way.

Fight only takes a few minutes.

Well they keep on comin', too. The team doesn't take any casualties, though a few droids keep having to be replaced. They do get a bit tired though, fighting through what amounts to walls of meat between them and their target as the Aurors finally lead them to their target. A long row of prison cells. And barring their path, a man in a long white coat, beside him a silver haired woman with tiger-striped fur and a tail.

That man, he holds an odd weapon called a gunblade, letting it lean against his shoulder as the vanguard approaches

"Sorry, but you've come all this way just to die," he says, dropping into a combat stance as the woman beside him does the same. "I've only got one job, but I'm not letting wimps like you screw it up."

The halls shake as the way behind them gets closed off courtesy of a series of explosions. Palace like that has more tricks up its sleeve than a magician, and the 'Runner team just wasn't able to figure all of them out. And that ain't all. Sound of runnin' feet echoes from other corridors. Blondie's got allies, if not friends coming to help him.

Seifer and Fujin? Quick! Someone Summon Odin!

>>21477053
This is a big plan, writing now, give me a few minutes to write it all out. Going through spell lists.

>>21477053
Seifer doesn't seem to be corrupted, also he has a Penis, which is a surprise. Let's see if we can find out why he's working with Chaosbringer.

Maybe also try and get him to switch sides, bring up the fact that Raijn isn't with him, and that Chaosbringer has killed one of his important friends, a person he wouldn't do anything without. Touch on the fact that he's being used again, and this time he doesn't even have the excuse of protecting Matron Edna from the Orphanage.

Then, bring up what happened to Squall. Because in the games, they're friends even if Seifer is a dick. It's subtle, but there.

>>21477053
Al'Kesh 6, you are now on dedicated Hercules transport duty. Beam Securitrons and YVH droids directly to the Breakout Team for support.

Rodger Young, use Creative Use of Teleportation Mechanics to destroy that gunblade.

Aurors, cast Tarantallegra (Dancing Feet Spell) on the man. 2 of you, cast the the Knockback Jinx Duo on Ryoko and I believe Seifer, to push them away. Then cast Aresto Momentum on the two, and the others cast Protego to protect the White Mages.

White Mages, Medic, you're on healing duty. Especially the two of you WM's that have the Economizers.

Psions, use Psychic Crush on Ryoko; she has a lot of defenses, but telepathic attacks are her one weak point.

Abjurers, cast Wall of Force to close off the other hallways and stop those reinforcements. Then use Interposing Hand to provide protection from Ryoko.

Engineering Holograms, set up those disruptor turrets at the mouths of those hallways, to vaporize anything that gets past the walls of force.

Skull Man, Pharaoh Man, defend the White Mages.

>>21477211
Addendum: If it is Ryoko and not Fujin, bring up the fact that he's lost both his friends, and turned into a simple toady.

>>21477053
>>21477246
Securitrons, provide a buffer to protect our troops from the enemy.

YVH droids, try to encircle Ryoko in order to Order 66 her.

Delta Greens, Gondegal, BLU, target Ryoko.
Shadowrunners, X-COM, Confederate Marines, assuming that Seifer doesn't switch sides, target him; otherwise target Ryoko.

VP-99 and 98, take the probe droids and spread out, provide opportunistic fire as you are able.

>>21477305
>>21477053
Isel, use Puppetmaster to boost the effectiveness of the Securitrons and YVH droids.

Get the Technowizards to the bridge of the AUH; have them use the sensors to identify if the Floating Palace sits on a leyline.
If it does, then it will help to recharge the Mana Batteries of the White Mage B Squad.

Also, have the Shadowrunner squads throw Aglaophotis gas grenades at Ryoko first, see if she's affected by Aglaophotis at all.

>>21477305
Make sure Shadowrunners, X-COM, Marines are careful. It's very possible that Seifer will be able to cut through all of them. He did one shot Odin, after all.

>>21477405
>>21477305
Oh, right.
Shadowrunner Team mages and shamans, don't forget to use your magic. We've got enough firepower to not need your direct attack spells, but if you can cast Levitate to float Seifer in the air, prevent him from being able to move, and become a sitting duck for our other guys, that would be best.

>>21477053
Protection from Evil or Magical Circle Against Evil would probably be very helpful right now. Securitrons, Skull Man, make sure nothing gets through to the White Mages.

BLU Team, take on those two characters. Spy, cloak now and look for a backstab opportunity. Heavy, lay down fire while Scout rushes. Medic, continuously heal heavy so we can use an Ubercharge for when those troops rush in. Pyro, turn your fire on them, keep them from reaching Heavy or Medic. Demo, sticky grenades in the hallways where those troops are going to come in. Sniper, keep your sights aimed downed one of the hallways and fire at will.

White Mages, prepare the heals.

>>21477305
I don't think this is Ryoko. This woman's hair is silver, not turquoise.

Final Fantasy Character. He can still move and attack while under the effects of Float. All it'll do is protect him from ground based attacks.

>>21477565
It's not Float. The spell is called Levitate, but it's actually a telekinetic hold on an object or person, with the caster retaining control.

There are specifically rules for using Levitate to smash a person into walls and using it to throw objects at people.

This is fundamentally a different effect than Float. Seifer will not be able to attack while under its effect.

Didn't you see what this thing did to Squall and Rinoa, turned one into a monster and had him eat/rape the other. He also killed almost every goddamn man on the planet.
With Edna, you knew she was your Matron. That gave reason to your actions as her Sorceress' Knight. You even fought against your friends from the garden to prevent them from killing her because they didn't remember. Don't deny they're your friends, as much as you clash you were the first to cheer when they graduated.
And speaking of friends, where are Fujin and Raijin? What happened to the two people who stuck with you through everything? If Raijin was alive, he'd be with you right know, I know that. And Fujin, if that's her over there, I bet she wishes she was dead. The kind of mind twisting magic needed to make her into a monstrousity that doesn't care what happens to you and Raijin.
You're better then this Seifer. It's time to step up and prove it."

Seifer's a tough son of a gun to begin with, but he's got a little something that lets him just shrug off all those fancy spells like they were drops of water on his coat.

The lady in stripes is Fujin. Doesn't say much. Doesn't have to. That Missile Blade of hers slices through a Securitron like it wasn't there, and a cluster of summoned Tornadoes knock around the entire team like miniatures in front of a tantrum. The White Mages can barely keep up with the damage, but they manage.

The Abjurers manage to seal off the entrances with Walls of Force, and the interposing hand of a fella named Bigby pops up to help against the tigress. She lets out a grunt of pain a second later as she gets psychic crushed. She keeps on, though. She's been through a lot worse. That Aglaophotis slows her down a little, but not much. Out of all the gals corrupted by Chaosbringer, she's the one that held onto herself the most.

A lot of gunfire gets directed at the two, but a gussied up Protect spell lets 'em keep trucking. All the same, a few gauss rounds slam into Seifer, and Fujin takes a glancing hit from one of them nasty black hole guns the Deltas keep around. The team's gunners can't fire for too long, though. Both Fujin and Seifer close to melee awfully fast, and move quick enough that firing at this risks hitting a teammate.

>>21478332

At these close quarters, the Securitrons can't fire their rockets, making them a lot less dangerous. Seifer seems to know this somehow, he goes for a softer target. The White Mages. 'Course, the White Mages have their own bodyguards, and like Seifer once protected one sorceress, so too do Cossack's Robot Masters duke it out to protect theirs.

This time it's Pharoah Man that reaches him first, delivering a nasty uppercut with one hand before unleashing an energy blast with that cannon on his other arm. The point blank shot don't miss, but Seifer's got a lot of power running through him. The plasma ball burns him, but he still connects with his swing, the gunblade somehow cleaving through Pharoah Man's armor to deal considerable damage.


Through the transparent walls of force, some of the team sees who's waiting on the other side. A woman with shiny metal skin and long blond hair, along with a young gal with grey fur and wild blond hair with beads and trinkets in it. Another catgirl with brown fur and huge nunchucks is behind them. They run smack dab into that wall, then scowl and begin chanting. The other entrance has a kimono-clad dragonwoman and some others racing behind her, hard to tell who.

Abjurers cast Silence on the area with the new people. Also, try to hit Seifer and Fujin with a Dispel Magic to remove their buffs.

"Better a live pawn than a dead king!" Seifer counters. "It's not what I want, but if I don't obey him, I'm dead or worse!"

>>21477998
"Damn it, don't you think I know that?! But Fujin and I are alive, and I have to keep it that way! We can't oppose him, no one can! Not even Ultimecia could stop him!"

>>21478419
Our other soldiers are in battle with him right now.

Call it a hunch, but I expect him dead within the hour.

Anyways, join us. Explore the universe. We can bring Raijin back, should he be willing.

>>21478419

Actually, uh... we kinda killed his corporeal body and one of our allies and a local goddess are killing his essence right now, we have proof from telemetry of us kicking his and his biggest mooks asses, too.

Wanna see?

>>21478419
Fujin is a goddamn cat monster that would sooner turn on you. And you're wrong, we can oppose him, we can stop him. We might even be able to bring back Raijin for you, and turn Fujin back into her lovely snarky normal self.
We need your sword Seifer, the sword that reversed the Zantetsuken.

Besides, Ultimecia had the power to compress time and she got her ass kicked by Squall and his buddies. Imagine what kind of ass kicking you could give Chaosbringer with us.

>>21478419
"Dammit, you fool! You'd throw away your one chance at freedom for a life of servitude! We've killed gods before, and we will kill this one as well! Even now, our demi-gods are in battle with him; he will be dead within the hour!"

Aurors, cast the Babbling Curse on the enemy that's chanting. One of you, cast the Conjunctivitus Curse on the dragonwoman (Makoto).

>>21478404
Abjurers have 2 Staffs of Negation; they can use them to take down the magical defenses of Seifer and Fujin.

Also, make sure that:
Isel, use Puppetmaster to boost the effectiveness of the Securitrons and YVH droids.

Get the Technowizards to the bridge of the AUH; have them use the sensors to identify if the Floating Palace sits on a leyline.
If it does, then it will help to recharge the Mana Batteries of the White Mage B Squad.

Have the reinforcements beam down to as close to the prison block as they can.
The Mikasa has an Industrial Replicator.
Have it create a squad of Engineering Holograms and a pair of phaser drills and a cutter beam. They will go to the door blocking the prison block, and attempt to cut the door out of the wall.

"Save it for the Sunday papers, and guess what jack, It's Tuesday! Choasbringer is going down, and he's going down HARD. In case you hadnt noticed the entire male population of this world and those he's invaded have come back from the graves, and they're Pissed. Untold Billions, and not even near enough of his slave has fight back! Him and his little shackled sailorscouts are already in a losing battle as we speak. He released whatever power he used to genocide man and enslave the fairer sex just moment ago, and you know what? It Failed, we're still fighting, and we're still Winning.

Better a live Man on the winning team Seifer, We can turn back the tides of corruption and mutation in this world, We can bring the light back, we can bring back how it was. With you, or Over you, this war is already won.

The Aurors are going to be busy.
They'll need to cast the Jelly-Legs Jinx on the approaching corrupted characters, and debuff spells like:
Langlock - makes the target's tongue stick to the roof of their mouth, preventing speech (as good as a Silence spell), otherwise use Silencio.
Petrificus Totalus - petrify

>>21478526 here.
Changing the Aurors to use Silencio on Rikku and her friends.
And instead of the Conjuctivitus Curse, use Jelly-Legs on Makoto.

"Then..." a crazed look settles over Seifer's face. "You don't understand, even if he's already dead, I have to fight. But... but if he's dead... soon, I'll be free."

"SOON," Fujin agrees.

"How despicable!" Quistis shouts from the other end of the Force Wall. "After all the mercy he's shown you, this is how you react? You should be outraged! When our god returns, he'll hear about this lack of faith!"

"SILENCE," Fujin rumbles as the Abjurers manage to Silence the fallen Quistis and her allies.

"Kill me!" Seifer shouts, charging Pharoah Man again. His blow severs the cannon arm of the Robot Master, but Pharoah Man knocks him back with another punch as Skull Man catches Seifer with another buster shot. The other Abjurers use the Staves to dispel the Protect spells on Seifer and Fujin. The Confederate Marines rake the swordsman's body with gauss rifle rounds, leaving him on the brink of death as YVH droids manage to fire a barrage of blaster bolts that catch Fujin and cause her to falter, making her easy prey for another Delta Green Mass Rifle. Her left leg is the price she pays. She collapses to the ground, managing to throw another Tornado at the group, wiping out about half the Securitrons and a quarter of the YVH droids present.

>>21478827

Hes not making too much sense or is he totally insane at this point?

>>21478827
Quick, change Auror orders!
One of the Aurors cast Reparo on Pharaoh Man to reattach his cannon arm!

All other orders stand.
YVH droids and Securitrons finish off Fujin and the Spy, finish Seifer and stuff him into a Nannybag.

>>21478924
He and Fujin are fighting against the mind-control that Chaosbringer has on them. Unfortunately, they can't stop themselves from attacking us, and we don't have the luxury of time to break the mind-control effect (it's not a simple mind control spell, it's a SUE power which would require Cheryl, the Avatar, or Tosh)

>>21478928

Fuujin as well. Shes not that far gone and we can test our SUE cure to see if it'll reverse the effects of the furrism.

>>21478827
White Mages, heal Seifer. If Fujin has enough of herself in there, throw a cure her way too.

"Dammit Seifer. Dying? Letting yourself be killed? What would Raijin think, what would he do if he saw you like this? He'd smack you upside your head. What would Squall think?

Stand up and show him your resolve, the spirit that stood firm even when everything was falling down around you. And fight that goddamn influence that makes you want to quit."

>>21478970
While they're fighting Chaosbringer's influence, isn't it obvious that they can't break it, and so they're trying to get themselves killed so we can Raise them later?

Seifer himself told us to kill him.

>>21479015
Honestly, I'm not that quick to give up. Seifer has a strong force of will, besides what if his sudden suicidal urge is due to the SUE influence.

And will he want to come back later?

That Motoko's a pretty mean swordswoman... in pretty much all definitions, now. She cuts through that magical barrier with her sword in a single motion, shouting something in Japanese as she does so. Her mutated friend Kitsune is right behind her, with a Power Ring. She aims it at the Wall of Force blocking the other entrance and nullifies it, grinning all the while.

"You guys screwed up!" she purrs, looking as smug as she can possibly be. "I had a feeling you'd try something as dumb as a rescue mission. You're in for a surprise!"

"I'm going to tear you apart!" Motoko snarls. "For what you've done to our home, I'll find a way to make it especially painful!"

The Aurors try their Curses on Motoko, but none seem to take hold on her, though Selphie falls under a Jelly-Legs curse quite literally. Without magic, Quistis draws a wicked looking barbed chain whip and leaps into melee alongside Motoko. Kitsune hangs back as what you can now identify as a corrupt Rikku darts into the fight as well.

They surround her and fire their guns and blasters in a 360-degree wall of fire.

Also, where's that engineering hologram team from the Mikasa? They need to get here on the double to cut open the door so that our robot reinforcements can get in.

Even Seifer's skill and Fujin's superhuman enhancements can't keep up with the sheer amount of hurt being tossed at them by '38's BreakOut Team. A lot of things hit, hurt 'em bad. White Mages try to heal them as ordered, but they're too busy healing up everyone else in this mess. Seifer falls first, a gatling laser burning through his calf. He hits the ground hard as a second burst burns through his gut. He sighs.

"It's... over," he murmurs. Fujin gets hit by another mass rifle shot a second later, takes out her legs. She falls and crawls over to Seifer, piteous sight with no legs to walk on.

"SLEEP," she says, as Seifer's eyes close. She goes still a moment after.

Quistis tries to say something, but the Abjurers made sure whatever remark she was thinkin' never hits the air.

The Aurors are busy keeping the Robot Masters up with their magic. It's tough work, one is already missing an arm, after all. Still, that little bit of repairing keeps the bots going, even after Rikku runs in and starts expertly slashing at gaps in their armor. Kid knew how to take a machine apart in her former life, that talent's being twisted for her new life now.

Okay. This is not going smoothly, and the team needs help.
First, have the Medical Team put Seifer and Fujin into Nanny-bags; they're not technically information-dead yet, so we can use less drastic resurrection methods when it's safer.

Have the Mikasa create a Security Hologram Squad and equip them with phaser rifles. They will catch up to the YVH, Securitron, and Engineering Hologram reinforcements.
When they arrive, have their phaser rifles set to maximum setting, wide-area to clear away the rubble.

Now for the bad news, and I gotta warn you son, it's pretty bad.

Gondegal moves over to Rikku, engaging her as ordered. He tries to take possession of her body, a neat tactic a lot of ghosts can pull off to really turn the tides.

It doesn't take.

Rikku yowls and spits and manages to force him out. Gondegal flies back, floating over by Motoko, who turns, eyes flashing. She's dealt with spirits before. And mercy ain't a word she can remember unless there's a big 'no' in front of it.

"Unclean ghost! Go back to the Underworld!" Motoko shouts, her sword glowing for a moment as she charges it with chi. Gondegal attempts to bring up his own ghostly sword to parry, but still drained from the possession attempt, he is too slow. The dragoness' katana cuts cleanly through the ghost with both the power of Chaosbringer and Shinmei-ryū behind it. Gondegal lets out a pained gasp as his form begins to flicker. Gray mist begins to pump from the cut as the paladin's form begins to lose coherency and vanish.

"My service... ends..." Gondegal murmurs, flickering from sight. His form dissipates with a final whisper. "Fare... well..."

Gondegal's been with the Task Force for a while now. No one ever really thought he'd be going anywhere. How do you kill something that's already dead? A lot of the troops get rattled.

>>21479774
oh man that one and two blew over lightly thank all the gods and goddesses we employ.
"Queens? Queens of what when everything you do or say is controlled and coerced by the Dead faggot who wanted nothing but women with big floppy cocks and cat ears around him. What happened to Anyone that defied him? Do you see that happening to us? He would've had us drawn and quartered already if he was anything of a MAN. Instead his power is loss, his pleasure slaves falling like wheat to a scythe. And you know what the aftermath will be? We're going to pick up their pieces, patch them up, and let them live their Lives again, as they were, as they had been, As You Could.

You're no Queen Motoko, you're just another slave who thinks the man that pays them likes them more. Where do whores go? A ditch, just like Tysha."

BLU team always had more guts than common sense. They rush Motoko in a fury. They didn't always get along with Gondegal... in fact, most of the time they didn't, but he told some really good stories.

"Holy shit, she fucking killed Casper!" Scout shouts, pointing at Motoko with his bat. "Last one to bash her brains in is a rotten egg!"

"IT IS KILLING TIME!" Heavy shouts, taking as big a bite outta that Buffalo Sandvich as his mouth can manage. Demoman raises his sword and charges, the Doc runs in behind them, healing as he goes...

Well, at least they distract her for the few seconds it takes the sword-slicing mutant to chop them up. Spy was the smart one, he cloaked and tried to maneuver around to backstab the bitch. Too bad those super-keen senses of hers were working more than fine. The Spy appears just behind her, knife raised, and gets impaled through the gut with a backwards thrust for his troubles.

"Mon Dieu..." Spy hisses as he falls to the ground.

The X-COM troops try using their Psionics, but either Gondegal's redeath has them shaken or the blind zeal behind the attacks of the fallen heroines is just too much to punch through. The Abjurers don't fare any better with Hold Person as the Psions fail to Psychic Crush Motoko.

The Mana Bolt splatter over the enemy, wear 'em down some. The aglaophotis grenades cloud up the area, but they don't do much. No wielders of the dark arts or demons in the enemy ranks. 'Least, not yet.

The sad thing is, it ain't even over yet.

Quistis puts that whip to good use... if you were on the side of soul devouring evil. As that length of barbed chain lashes into the Shadowrunners cruelly tearing their flesh off their bodies, the metal-skinned monster charges grabbing a Psion with one hand and crushing his throat. The White Mages are forced to throw out a few Raises along with their Cures to counteract this, a fact that doesn't go unnoticed.

Kitsune's Power Ring flashes as nightmarish visions begin to afflict the White Mages, causing them to panic and run around the room, dodging invisible opponents. They flood the comm-waves with chatter about demons and the walls growing teeth. Kitsune laughs hysterically as the flow of healing is cut off.

Selphie intercepts a nice chunk of the droids heading for Motoko and begins smashing Securitrons apart with glee. Securitrons are actually pretty tough, built strong enough to take a few hits from even a grown Deathclaw before going down, but Selphie was an extremely powerful fighter even before being infected. She starts taking down enough of the Securitrons to force some of the YVHs to stop and engage her. With their melee combat abilities, the YVH do a lot better, letting their robot brethren roll back. They still take quite a beating, though.

Blasters, lasers, and gunfire seem to bounce off of Quistis' new metallic skin. A few shots manage to power through and inflict light wounds, but it's quite clear how potent her defense is. Motoko's own scales allow her defensive abilities just under that. A few YVHs manage to land a few shots on her, but she evades their attempts to encircle her.

Oh, right. Well, sometimes a detail or two gets missed in the middle of a big story like this. I remember now. What actually happened was that Kitsune tried that and got shut down by the Bio-masks. She got awful sore about that, dropped the smug grin off her fast real fast.

The ABSM's were designed to stop Force powers, even ones wielded by a Sith Lord. I believe they're enough.

Still going with this:
Psions, the one of you that's an Egoist, use your Psionic Revivify power to try to catch Gondegal's psyche while it's still here.
Combine with an Auror's attempt to call Gondegal's spirit back.

Other Psions, use Telekinetic Manuever to telekinetically grapple Motoko.
Other Aurors, continue casting Reparo on the Robot Masters and any Securitrons and YVH droids you can get to.

Medic, if you're still alive, fall back and help the White Mages.

Delta Greens, use your Mass Rifles on Quistis.
Confederate Marines, see how her metal skin fends off gauss rifle rounds.

YVH droids that engaged Selphie, keep her engaged. Use those melee combat routines that can defeat even a Jedi.

The remaining Securitrons and YVH droids, attempt to encircle Motoko and Order 66 her.

Spy, if you're still around, which you should be because we told you to use the Dead Ringer, backstab Kitsune, but get a ReRaise from a White Mage first.

>>21480576
Sounds like a good plan. Anon's got my vote.

>>21480576
>>21480504
>>21480355
In addition, X-COM Squad, concentrate all panic psi-attacks on Kitsune. With 12 minds doing the attacking, all veterans of the Alien War, we should be able to wear down her defenses.

Shadowrunners:
Shamans, use your connection to spirits to aid the Psion and the Auror with bringing Gondegal back to us!
Mages, use Heal spells to help bolster the White Mages.
Everyone else, fire on Selphie.

I think the medic ended up sliced and diced with the rest of the BLU team (less the dead ringer'd spy). If by some miracle the medic is alive AND equipped with the amputator AND has a group of friendlies clustered nearby, do the taunt now. It will heal everyone within the aura which is something like 15-20ft around him.

>>21480709
Hopefully the momentary slip-up will let us get the jump on Motoko and Kitsune will get angry enough to make a mistake. Is anyone taking down Rikku?

Nope.paint

What if we cast accio or expelliarmus on their rings and weapons?

>>21480709
Do this >>21480576
and this >>21480663
The Shamans in the Shadowrunner team can help attempts to bring back Gondegal, and the Mages can cast healing spells.

Shamans, if they have any expendable spell foci, they should use them now.

>>21480745
Pharoah Man is keeping her busy, as is Skull Man, who is also defending the White Mages.

>>21480761
Ah, okay. Must have slipped by me.

>>21480758
Weapons I can understand. Rings? Probably not.

>>21480758
They're still monsters, so their claws are still very dangerous weapons.
But, it might work. But the Aurors are still needed repairing the Robot Masters and the YVH and Securitron units.
Next turn we can try Expelliarumus on Motoko, Quistis, Selphie, and Rikku, and Accio on Kitsune's Ring.

"I can do this allll Day. I could have loudspeakers all over the world play recordings of my voice, just Laughing and laughing, At. You."

"Oh? Did i hit some nerves? I wouldve thought some autofellating futa mutant sluts could handle a little japing, or maybe they arnt used to having people talk back. Dont like your gaudy jewelery made fun of? I'd say they're a great deal nicer then those pearl necklaces Chaosbringer just hands out to the lot of you. Or is it he doesnt have time for you anymore? Too much time picking up new meat, girls he beats, and drags kicking and screaming until he can rape their minds before he does the same to their bodies? Or visa versa. Sounds familiar to some of you doesnt it? Or has he truely fucked your little brains out."

Should run replays of our love Hina DVD set. Specifically the scenes of Keitaro running into and undressing Motoko.

>>21480943
I have the strangest feeling that that might actually help distract her.

>>21480995

Yes. Because reasons.

And the others securitrons display doujins of their opponents with their love interests?

>>21480709
I suppose that using two Securitrons to display taunts, one for Motoko and one for Kitsune, are a good distraction.

Motoko Taunt: "Oh, can't take a little bit of the truth? Face it, Motoko. You're nothing but a hack mercenary; no, you're worse than a mercenary. At least a mercenary admits that they fight for pay. You're not even a sellsword worth the name.
"You're nothing more than a slave, your mind twisted around till you're nothing more than an animal that lives to rut and fight."

Kitsune: "Oh, what, you can't take a little ribbing? You can dish it out, but you can't take it when someone points out how your little Cracker Barrel decoder ring is just something that you stole rather than earned?
"You've always been like this. That's why you never got what you really wanted, why you always failed, why you were nothing but a failure always trying to drown your mistakes in booze and gambling.
"And you haven't changed a damn bit, even here.
"Except now you've just added screwing Rikku to the list."

The OP accidentally deletes the text he'd written up and curses profusely. But he keeps on.

Kitsune's mind itself ain't nothing special, but that ring of hers makes her frightfully resistant to fear effects. That and the fact the X-COM boys are still a little shaken keeps her free and clear of any panic attacks. She responds in kind by creating a horde of illusionary monsters to run rampant. The bio-masks everyone's got on stops her from custom tailoring them to everyone's fears, but even so, a certain amount of chaos is caused.

The YVH droids and Selphie are in a deadlock. Selphie's supernatural skill and strength are countered by the heavy armor and high tech of the YVH droids, their melee programming keeping them in the fight. For every battle droid Selphie manages to pummel apart, she takes a blaster burn or vibro-knife wound. It's beginning to take its toll.

The Psions manage to telekinetically grapple Motoko as the droids spread out, but she pulls a nasty little trick from her sleeve. Even as her limbs are suspended, Motoko inhales deeply and breathes a cone of fire and lightening, sweeping the area in front of her and destroying the robots in front of her. At this point, the only Securitron left on the field is the one Isel Yew is piloting, and the YVH droids are down to half strength.

Don't worry, though. Things look up a bit.

>>21481116
Abjurers, 2 of you cast Unbreakable Construct on Pharaoh Man and Skull Man to make them harder.
The remaining 4, cast Haste on the YVH droids fighting Motoko.

The Delta Greens have two advantages that Quistis just doesn't... I mean, aside from not being brainwashed. One, they're invisible in that Stealth Armor of theirs. Two, they've got mass rifles. It don't matter what kind of armor you're wearing with a mass rifle. Even the sort of skin Quistis has won't stand up to a black hole, and she takes a hit to the chest and falls, still silent from the Abjurer's spell.

Ain't all good news, though, Rikku manages to worm a claw into an armor breach on Pharoah Man and pulls apart some components. He drops, emergency self repair routines jolting to life. Skull Man is still there, though, and Rikku's getting an awful lot of burns on that furred hide of hers.

Things don't always work out the way we want 'em to. Turns out the taunting just gave the two of them youma extra strength.

>>21481165
Delta Greens, turn your fire on Rikku now. Make sure to account for her speed. Aurors, try for a Mass Reparo on the all the robots, let's see if we can get some of those Securitrons back up.

Psion, Auror, and Shamans, any success on trying to get Gondegal back?

Abjurers, one casts Unbreakable Construct on Skull Man, the others cast Haste on the Delta Greens.

Delta Greens, finish off Rikku while Skull Man keeps her pinned.

Psions, keep Motoko pinned, pour more Power Points into it.

YVH droids continue firing at Motoko and Selphie.

Aurors, cast Reparo on Pharaoh Man and the YVH droids that you can.
