Ace Academy - Ready!? Set!? Rumble! - High Casual

Sara shot a look at the brawler that had peeled off to chase her and cursed. Luckily for her, that brawler was fighting a losing battle- she was too fast for it. It would have to face her on her terms- or at least partially anyway. At least it would take some heat off Hamasaki as Sara went after the snipers. Bill had also dispatched his foe and had decided to help them with the snipers. Again, he failed to vocalize anything, but Sara could tell from his vector that he too was going after the snipers. She continued making her way towards the snipers, her vector straightening out slightly in order to keep ahead of the Brawler- Occasionally she would flip backwards keeping her forward momentum while she shot at it- forcing it to slow down and turtle behind its shield.

The snipers had also shifted target from Ian to Rio and Bill- that meant Ian was now in a position to provide the others with support, from countersniping to covering fire. The team already had an advantage- they were 5 to 4, this extra breathing room gave them the flexibility they needed to gain a more marked advantage and begin decisively beating their opponents.

Sara was now upon one of the snipers. The sniper noticed Sara and attempted to fire at her, but she was too close, and moving too fast for the unwieldy weapon to track her at close range. The large sniper rifle cracked, its shot grazing Sara's shield as she strafed around the sniper, peppering its shields with her energy submachinegun. The sniper began fleeing, seeking to reposition and give its allies a chance to harry Sara, but she pursued the AI GEAR, launching her EMP Claw at it.

The EMP Claw caught the sniper's leg as it turned, causing it to tumble to the ground- its leg momentarily shut down. The sniper GEAR turned onto its back, rifle leveled and ready to shoot the white GEAR, but Sara was already upon it. A sniper shot flew past her head as she stabbed the lance into her foe's chest. The lance head, like its real life counterpart merely crumpled in on itself as it stabbed into the AI, but the powerful electrical discharged disabled the machine, giving Sara the K.O.

Without missing a stride, Sara leaped over the defeated GEAR almost as quickly as she had stabbed it, not desiring to stay in one position long enough for the brawler to catch up with her if it was still following her. Sara sighed out and smiled to herself- this is what she was good at- striking at the softer interior of the enemy formation while her allies wore them down. A smaller scale hammer and anvil tactic- tried and true.

"Sorry for the wait Hamasaki, I'm on my way back now." Sara called over the teamchat as she rushed back to their 'frontline', fixing her second lance head to the front of her gauntlet as she moved. The brawler was currently wrestling on the ground with the Ogre, and now had to contend with Hamasaki, who was no longer being fired upon. Sara reversed herself, dashing backwards as she fired at the brawler chasing after her. She didn't really imagine the possibility of her penetrating the big brawler's shield, but she'd be able to keep it at a distance long enough for the others to begin helping her.

Sonic booms come after thunder. Anyway I'll be posting tonight.

I've been meaning to mention this, but doesn't lightning come before thunder?

Co-Ed Highschool Volleyball Rp

Aceuh! My jump serve career returns!

Or perhaps a hitter... Though on that topic, technically 'Ace' isn't a position, it's a term attributed to a serve that the opposing team couldn't block.

Also on the topic of positions, shouldn't there be a setter? - front middle or occasionally back middle, responsible for setting up plays for the attackers.

O... I was gonna make that roguey character I showed you earlier Gen, but if Hawk wants to do it, I can work around that

High School Voleyball RP

My jump serve carried my high school team to regional semi finals. My inability to receive service led us to losing that semi-final...

Also, I currently have a part time job at my university campus as a refferee for co-ed volleyball, so volleyball is on the mind atm.

Regardless, I'm interested, preferably co-ed team

If it's the three of us.. We should do the fighter-rogue-mage trifecta

Ace Academy - Ready!? Set!? Rumble! - High Casual

There was something unnerving about the computer AIs simultaneously firing at the Celestial Star team members. Sara had never been in a regulated team fight before- most of the GEAR testing she had done had been in laboratory settings, with one on one combat, or in the field with asymmetrical combat operations. As a result, she had never been in a situation where they competed five on five. At this distance, the enemy fire was easy enough to dodge, but still unnerving. The front line AI began charging them after the first volley.

"So what's the-" Sara began to say as Bill rushed forward ahead of them and began clashing with the Computer Skirmisher, the two brawlers arcing around the skirmishers to close in on Sara and Hamasaki.

"-Plan..." she finished with a small sigh. She started up her boosters and began moving forward, juking past the Brawlers' slower melee weapons.

"So much for working together." Sara said with a frustrated sigh as she leveled her Lance at the nearest Brawler and began firing her lasergun. The Brawler turtled behind its shield, shrugging off the weapons fire as it and the other continued to charge towards Sara- only pausing as a bomb landed in their midst of their fight. Sara boosted backwards- as did they two Brawlers- her shields flaring as energy from the explosives washed over her shields. Luckily, her GEAR was fast enough to get her to the edge of the explosive radius before the bomb went off.

"Good save Hamasaki!" Sara called over the teamchat. Despite nominal damage to her shields, the grenade had given Sara enough breathing room to keep the brawlers at bay.

"Someone get one of these snipers off of me, it's a bit difficult to dodge them both!" Ian called over the teamchat.

Sara quickly shot a glance at the enemy snipers- they were far off. Supposedly it was Kiril's task to look after their sniper, but there was little the slower, close range focused Kuzov model could do against enemy counter-snipers. Meanwhile, Bill was too focused on his duel to be able to break off at get at the snipers. Not to mention, throughout the match thus far Bill seemed to be more focused on harrowing the non-responsive AI with intimidating speeches rather than coordinating his team- perhaps this was a test of their own initiative?

"I can get them!" Sara replied. "Hamasaki! Hold them off for a bit longer!" Hamasaki appeared to be a capable pilot, and her GEAR was sturdy enough to last the fight until she returned. With her rifle and energy grenades Hamasaki should be able to keep the Brawlers at a distance, perhaps even taking them down. Hopefully Kiril would notice Sara changing positions and either aid her to quickly wrap up the snipers, or aid Hamasaki on the frontlines while the Brawlers were focused on her.

With her enhanced lateral thrusters, Sara arched around the brawlers, randomly boosting to the left or right to keep them or the snipers from getting a bead on her as she lifted her lance, preparing to strike at the nearest one.

*Shrug* my post was originally going to be Sara asking Rio to hold off the two brawler's for a moment while she zipped off after the snipers because she was a speedy one. After reading your post, the plan changed to 'dodge around the two brawlers while waiting for Kiril to back her up'. I think I'd prefer Sara chasing the snipers, but you wrote the post in first so you have the first dibs on direction and target.

Nbd either way
