Three lazers erupted from out in the darkness, cleaving through discarded metal and one unfortunate machine. Two of the blasts skittered past the Clockwork Man, but the last cleaved a hole straight through his lower torso even as finished off another robot with one precise bullet.

He dropped back from the blow, clockwork whirring and breaking out from the ‘wound’ as the metal struggled to reform over the serious rupture. His head spun around, and exactly what he had most feared greeted him, the most significant factor which could have impeded his progress.

So far, he and his nimble sword wielding ally, who’s skills had impressed even the Clockwork Man thus far, had only been facing the predominantly melee and ineffective scout forces of the Broken Ones. The quickest to arrive on scene, it made sense they would have to face them first.

However, there were slower moving hovering weapons platforms which posed even a threat to him. He now had the displeasure of facing one down; it had already proved it could cut through his armour with its super-heated armaments. He knew he was running low on ammo, just twelve or so shots left, not enough to bring down such a behemoth. There was something else he could do though, and it might just have given them the advantage they needed to survive the last quarter of an hour or so required to at least get the ship moving.

George sprinted forward, holstering his pistol even as lazer fire erupted around him. One shot narrowly grazed his arm, shearing away metal like it were paper.

I won’t die here.

He leapt, diving off a corrugated sheet of metal high into the air, another blast from the lazer weaponry ripping through his upper body before both hands clamped down on the machines sensor matrix. He slammed into it with enough force to even cause the hovering behemoth to slide backwards a few paces, and with a single minded ferocity he began to rip and tear at its outer casing, even as powerful Technomagic permeated his body and burst from his hands, causing the metallic creature to shudder as if suffering some great pain.

When he bounced off the robot a few moments later it immediately began firing at every Broken One in the vicinity, tearing their fragile bodies to shrapnel with frightening ease. The Clockwork Man rubbed his hands together, pleased with himself.

“That should keep them busy for a while.” He said loudly enough that his new ally could potentially hear him over the chaos around them, though in truth he wasn’t particularly bothered if he did or not. He began to walk casually over to the ship again, concentrating his full efforts on forcing the nanobots to repair the damage done to his body.

Long enough to know sarcasm doesn't translate well over the internet.


That's why you just assume nothing is serious.

The thing is my alien named himself Melon because he likes eating melons. Should I keep that name despite Melonhead or is that too confusing? They can form the league of Melons and rule the world. Or maybe he can be named after some other fruit he likes...


Daeh would love him, so keep the name.

I'm sure everyone is alright with it in moderation. Hell, I use it from time to time.But I've had an experience where people took it too far. A promising story turned into a meaningless flirt-fest where people acted silly the whole time. Most people ended up being more interested in keeping a fluffy animal (long story) than the adventure itself. The plot stopped dead in its tracks. After reading the umpteenth post about people petting a fluffy animal (in a "mature RP"), I jumped ship. I've seen before how "comic-relief" can kill plot advancement if overdone. So I hope people can see where I'm coming from.


Yeah, I can. Don't worry, Norak is humorless, so his responses will probably cut any overly humorous moments down.

Alright, I'll explain, as you're acting like a smartass, plus this rant will make Khan happy.

Damn, Fury's a badass:Maintaining perfect focus in the intestines of a living being.Not wholly losing your stomach and possibly suffocating because the inside of a bear would be filled with a stench so wretched that you would effectively be forced to throw up.Not losing consciousness because the likelihood of the internal sphincter tightening around a foreign body and effectively cutting off oxygen flow.Being able to build up energy for a powerful magic attack inside of a bear, while all of this is happeningNot being affected in any way from being on the inside of a still living creature.


Yep, he actually is -that- badass.

I could explain how he can do all those things, but meh.
For some reason people always want to throw my characters into other character's asses.

I seem to remember something similar happening to Forsoff in Allaria.

I almost wish fury had gotten lodged up into the bears intestines. Would have been the most hilarious outcome in a fight in arena history.


Well, definitely the messiest, what with him draining all the bear's energy and blasting out from the inside with Energy Nova.

Very messy.

I keep reading over this, and it's the multiple usages of words that mean to strike or ram into something that keeps bringing me back to Sukoh getting struck by the pair.I'm going to rewrite it, but the pain is going to be literally worse for Sukoh. Because Mach 3 scraping = Flesh being ripped from his hindquarters.


Well, that would suck for him I suppose, Fury lost a lot of his shoulder and he has energy shielding.

Yeah, Sikako likes being injured.

Masochist.
