This is my second profile on here, and I have been Play-By-Post RPing for about nine years now. I do my best to see every RP to the end or at least let my character come to his/her own dramatic conclusion when I feel like signing off. Just like novel writing in real life, I tend to find myself on long hiatuses. Since writing is a great way to work out your brain, I try stay engaged as much as possible.
My favorite genres include futuristic worlds, mysteries, and super powers. Any mixture of these three elements will peek my interest.
@DoubleI'm going to use great speed to dodge out of the way of these guys and hit them when they're clumped together.
Just so you know, there are no bonuses for attacking while they are clumped together. You can definitely do that though, and you didn't use any boosts last turn. I think if you use some boosts correctly, you can knock one or two of them out.
@Double Have faith my friend. While you two are outnumbered and out classed in base stats. The opponents don't have any boosting capabilities. So, I think you two still have a slight advantage as long as you play your cards right.
The battle began. There were only six assassins, but the way they moved, there might as well have been twelve of them. They closed in their targets looking to make swift work of them. That's when they realized that this battle would be no regular assignment.
The first three assassins, attacking Niko, dealt a decent amount of damage, using all that they already knew about their target from research. After all, he was the original target. His file was shared among anyone that had a chance of meeting him. The first assassin did the most damage, landing his kick right in Niko's chest. Of course, Niko was willing to take a little damage, to let his target in close enough for his counter attack. Niko grabbed his opponent and flung the guy at one of his companions. Unfortunately, his secondary target dodged and retreated. The fight continue for another few combos, but Niko wasn't able to land many more attacks than his initial counter.
Wan on the other hand seemed to handle himself a little better. He used his secret technique, momentarily making all of his opponent's flinch. He then closed in on one target in particular, dealing a solid amount of damage. All the while, he managed to avoid most of his opponent's attacks, taking minimal damage. It was clear, he knew how to handle assassins from his own organization. Even still, he didn't have any room for mistakes.
Niko takes 36 damage from his three assassins, with the most damage coming from the first assassin. He looses 24 power to exhaustion. He has 85 Health remaining and maintains a Power Level of 97.
Wan takes 14 damage from his three assassins, with all of them dealing light damage each. He looses 22 power to exhaustion. He has 86 Health remaining and maintains a Power Level of 78. Assassin #1 takes 12 damage from Niko's counter attack and looses 12 power to exhaustion. He has 38 Health remaining and a remaining power level of 38.
Assassin #2 takes no damage but looses 11 power to exhaustion. He still has 50 health and a remaining power level of 39.
Assassin #3 takes no damage but looses 11 power to exhaustion. He still has 50 health and a remaining power level of 39.
Assassin #4 takes 19 damage and looses 12 power to exhaustion. He has 31 health and a remaining power level of 38.
Assassin #5 takes no damage but looses 11 power to exhaustion. He still has 50 health and a remaining power level of 39.
Assassin #6 takes no damage but looses 11 power to exhaustion. He still has 50 health and a remaining power level of 39.
The six assassins then retreated in unison, creating a wide circle around their two targets. They ran the length of the circle for a moment, then charged back in. They hoped to confuse their opponent's by changing the match ups. Apparently they decided to prioritize Niko, noticing that he had taken the most damage, it was like they were sharks that smelled blood. So while four charged Niko, two went to Wan to keep him busy.
I got a little busy today and didn't realize how long it would take to finish my post. It's almost done, but I need to get ready for work. It will definitely be posted tomorrow.
Just so everyone knows, I'm working on my response post now, with the assassins versus Niko and Wan. I'm going to take a break and finish tomorrow morning. It's actually a little more difficult to calculate for a group battle (go figure). But I'm getting better at it. I should have no problems finishing in the morning.
I'm excited as always! Hope everyone's doing well!
My next post is going to have to wait for about two days. I wasn't able to get around to it today or yesterday (obviously), and I work a double tomorrow. Tuesday I only work in the morning however, so I should be able to get something up in the evening then.
Pan laughed to herself as Bakuto jumped to his feet. He sure was an eager one, she thought to herself. On the outside however, she managed to contain her amusement to a polite smile.
"Well, there is a threat of sorts, on its way to Earth. And I lead a team of fighters that are going to be facing this threat. Actually 'manage' would be a better word for what I do. I don't do much leading anymore; I don't fight like I used to.
"Anyways, this team, we call ourselves the Z-Fighters, and once every ten years or so, a small alien force comes to earth to challenge us. It's not a formal fight like the tournaments here, but rather, a small invasion. They simply show up and if we don't meet them to fight, they have orders to start destroying cities and ultimately take over the world if they don't meet any resistance. However, if we do meet them to battle, and we win, they also have orders to retreat and not return for ten more years."
Pan watched Bakuto's reactions carefully, hoping that she wasn't coving too much information too quickly. "You've never heard anything about this because, as I'm proud to say, we've sent them packing without incident for many decades in a row now.
"This is where you come in." She said. "Any time we see fighters with potential, we like to recruit them. And someone up there has seen potential in you young, man. Unfortunately, you're going to need to go through some serious training, if you're going to be a match for even one of their foot soldiers. Also, we don't have much time. They will be arriving in one month.
"So I need you to be aware, if you really want to go through with this, you're going to be going through the toughest training of your life for one month. And maybe, if we're lucky, you can defeat a few grunts without getting yourself killed. What do you say? Scared?"
Pan crossed her arms in front of her chest, just below her elderly bust. The smirk on her face said that it would be okay if Bakuto wanted to back out now, she would understand. At the same time, she'd probably tease him for it, if he did.

Back at the ramen shop...
"An autograph?" The man chuckled at the idea. "No, no. I'm no collector of names. I am however, a collector of fighters. You see, I'm in charge of a team of elite fighters that I think you would be a perfect fit to join. You have a certain determination in your style that I like, and that others in the team share.
"That being said, you still need a lot of training. You might have been the best here at the tournament, but I assure you. There are much stronger opponents out there, just waiting to put you in your place. In fact, if you were to join my fighters, as I hope you will, you'd be at the very bottom of the totem pole, right there with that Bakuto kid, who I bet is going to join too. My daughter should be talking to him right about now..."
"Excuse me, miss." The shop owner injected himself, hot bowl of ramen on a plate in his hands. "Your food is ready. I may have doubled up on the proteins for you. I know how you fighters burn calories like nothing!" The middle aged man set that food down on the counter in front of her. "You know," He continued. "I couldn't help but here you offer this man an autograph. Well, if he doesn't want one, I sure do!"
