"So my names Rex, what's yours?"
Rex pulled back on the blade, the whip hanked against the blade before the masked man twisted his arm and the whip slackened. Rex stumbled slightly as he was knocked slightly off-balance, recovering by allowing the sword to be re-absorbed into his body and twisting into a forward roll. "Okay then, so that's how it's going to be-" Rex heard a characteristic woosh overhead, and didn't even need to look before a blue beam shot out from the sky knocking his adversary in the chest and sending him reeling. There is the telltale hum in the air of arc reactor energy, the thud as the heavy armour sets down and then the whirr of silos as Rhodey stands back up to his full albeit augmented height. The blank faceplate perfectly mirroring the blank faceless expression from the man with the whip. Rex sorts his stance, adjust his feet just as he was taught as Rhodeys voice comes booming out of his helmet.
"Back away from the kid."
Rhodey turned to face Rex, the faceplate slipping up momentarily. "You okay kid?"
"Other than the fact you tracked me, yeah." A small apologetic smile creeped along the airmans face. No further explanation necessary.
Suddenly Rhodeys faceplate snapped back down as a group of white-shard like projectiles collided with the armour. The gun on his shoulder moved to track the incoming fire but before it could get a lock there was a blur of something blue and the gun fell to the ground. Severed at the connection, sparks flying out of the armour. A large mechanical wolf landed next to Rex, it turned to Rex but before Rex could react it dodged to the side, a man in a green suit swiping at it with its sword. The sword collided with the Wolfs claws in a series of blocks and parries. A large hand clasped itself on his shoulder and Rex twisted, large metal fist at the ready. It collided with something equally as solid, and he winced.
A large crystaline club, growing out of the arm to what looked like a falt, bald lizard. "Calm down kid, we're on your side." The lizard pulled Rex to the side as Rhodey turned, noticing the new interloper and tried to disengage from the whipping evo. The lizard lowered his arm towards Rhodey and several shots of the small projectile diamonds shot out. Lancing out at the armour Rex looked on in horror as the projectiles actually scratched and cut into the armour. Not enough to draw blood, but mroe than he was expecting. And Rhodey too, from the fact he never even attempted to dodge the shots. Used to just tankingt he damage.
"No wait, I think there's all been some kind of big misunderstanding-!" Rex walked forward, Noah at his side. Before he could get very far he heard a whoosh of air behind him, the pair looked as there was a swirling disc of red and black energy. AS they looked at eachother perplexed he felt the wind knocked out of him as he was clobbered by the diamond-club.
Spitting up dirt, Rex pushed himself off the cold and dank floor. Immediately noticing the difference in. Everything. The calming rolling waves were gone, the vacuum filled with an eerie silence. The cool but refreshing summer breeze was replaced with a cold that threatend to cut him to his core. He heard the scuffle of footsteps behind him. Turning to face them as a group. There was the Lizard-Monster, Mechano-Wolf, Whip-Boy and behind them stood a small girl. Her black hair covered her eyes, her hands disproportionately large compared to the rest of her. A second pair of arms with normal sized hands came out from about the middle of her torso.
A protective large orange hand infront of Noah he stood ready. Looking brave, or what he thought looked brave. "Who are you people, where have you taken us, what do you want?"
None of them spoke, and he was about to ask again when a smooth silken voice echoed from somewhere behind him. "I'm sorry for the inconvienance. I sent them to collect you." Rex turned to see the man descending a staircase, his long regal jacket flowing with every step. Long hair sat perfectly, with only the smallest white streak on either side of his head hinted to any sign of imperfection. His right hand encased in a golden glove, that went up his arm and seemingly connected to some kind of brace that surrounded his body and covered the left of his chest.
"It's been a long time Rex. Welcome, to Abysus."
