The War of the Three

Hmm... I have an idea that might make Sliske a viable threat given he does his job right and could make him a constant threat to a battlefield...

The War of the Three

Surprise. I dun posted.

Also @Awesomoman64, I'm imagining Torag and Balrog squaring off and all I can think of is him yelling at Torag when he gets punched and just doesn't move much.

The War of the Three

As luck would have it, the time Henry spent healing Bastion's head had given Marquis enough time to get further into the forest, farther than the sweeping strike of the Cheater's Blade. As such, he remained concealed for the moment, vision becoming more and more obstructed by the red mist that had blanketed most, if not all of Arcadia at this point. While he ran, something started going awry with his systems, specifically judgement processors and speech programs. For what reason he did not know, though it didn't matter to him. He still had the task of either escaping or killing Henry to complete. He started to ease off his run around a new area to take shots at, though something was amiss. He wasn't as far back as he should be to be safe after the shot, and there was something else.

An Angel was throwing rocks at his head. The first one made solid contact and put a small dent in the back of his head, though the second pinged off the side as he turned around. Rather than the normal, generally delightful voice belonging to the Servant of the High Queen, a distorted mess of sound came out that was somehow just barely intelligible. "zzZid zew zzatzuallZEe zink zzzZZat Vrrd VvvVVrk?" He unceremoniously stuck his right arm back with Bindlebane in hand as it shortened to a revolver, and pulled the trigger on Zak. A singular engraved bullet flew straight for the left side of his chest, highly unlikely to miss even as the robot functionally deteriorated.

He turned back to the matter at hand while the weapon expanded once again, eye looking down the scope to not only find Bastion in one piece, but Henry raging about in an attempt to find him. "ZzR ze ZzzRRTLL vllLkd MmZ ZZZZt..." Making note of this for the future, he took aim rather hastily and took another shot at Bastion, achieving a similar result as before, though this time off by a couple inches. The bullet tore through her jaw and went down into her chest, where it buried itself in a lung. With the hope that she was done for good this time, the android stood up much slower than usual, leaving him open from an attack from Zak, should he prove to be alive, or Henry, should he find the sniper's location.

I can either post now and have it be sub-par or wait a couple days and have it be good. Just killed my voice by memorizing literally half of a play.

The War of the Three

Ghelgath: I was once an ice warrior like you... then I took a bullet to the knee. I know, overused as fuck, but why give the cold shoulder about it?

@Lmpkio

Everyone: *Rapes Ghelgath*

It's cause Marquis fancies himself the best thing to Eos since canned bread. So let's see him back up that claim.

<Snipped quote by Mega Birb>

Henry: No, you're just the most dangerous unit if left unchecked. Sniper rifle bullets really hurt.

@floodtalon

Marquis: I'm sure you learned that the hard way.

The War of the Three

Marquis: ...Am I really that much of a high-value target? I understand I'm very close to Eos and I'm trying to "save" a valuable unit, but really?

The War of the Three

@TheWindel Ghelgath has escaped, Bastion's the one.

@KoL I rescind the vinegar statement, but I'm looking at it like this: It gets fully established that the foolproof way to kill Marquis in one post is to dump acid into the air, or he starts breaking down from it as he chose to not try and defend against it. They both lead to dead robots, but one is more interesting and allows him to adapt with the next chassis. The other is Machina Sliske.

You're good, nothing needs changing.
