*From behind
the bar, join our hero, chatting it up with a space germ*
Lyric: Invaded, yet
again... *Sigh* Least its not spiders or roaches this time...
Shinobi: I mean really, we make major
headway with the whole Eva A thing, and here's the Third Invasion, its
robots or something like robots this time...
Jenova: Yeah well,
when life hands you lemons, make lemonade.
Shinobi: No, i'd rather not... i think i
shall have to send the lemons back, and ask for something a little more
palatable, thankya much!
Jenova: Wonderful
battle cry, let me tell ya, and how exactly are you planning to repulse
them without weapons?
Shinobi: Without weap...? oh yeah, i
lost the ninja suit in the catacombs, and now i'm stuck in this plug
suit and trenchcoat... damn... i need weapons!
Bodai: Mage, your
power! Second Lesson: summon weapons! Just
reach out and bring something of power to you!
*Shinobi closes his eyes and
reaches his hands out, obviously concentraiting... then suddenly, a
staff appears in his hands... a large mahogany affair capped with a ring
about palm sized, interlinked with this are two smaller rimgs (its kinda
Rezo-like, if'n anybody else watches "Slayers" only with two rings
instead of four, and no silly orb on top)*
Lyric: Wonderful...
do we beat them with that thing?
Shinobi: Ummm... this doesn't seem to be
much of a weapon... i miss bieng a ninja...
Bodai: Then summon a sword
or something, that is a Mage's tool, useful for the distilling and
focusing of energy.
Shinobi: In other words...
Bodai: It boosts
your power! Just reach out, gather as much energy as you can
and toss it at something!
Shinobi: Hmmm... 'zat Lesson #3?
Bodai: Sure,
whatever!
Shinobi: DIE, EVIL... THINGS!
*Shinobi slams the staff into one
of the Huitzls, arcing energy into the mass produced form, quickly
overloading it*
*Meanwhile, across the bar, behind
a table*
Voodoo: I guess
that's the signal, ATTACK! *Whips out her Uzi, and blasts one of the
invaders*
Plant: ...
(*thinks* So we just start slicing again? Oh well, i
wonder what's controlling these things...?)
Reno: That tank
would seriously come in handy right about now!
Voodoo: No use
wishing for what we can't have, right?
Reno: I guess
so, you just have to wonder where it got to...
*At that same
time, across town*
Mat: Hmmm... lesse,
what can we do now...? I wonder what this tank could be useful
for...
Bub: Arrrrgggghhh!
Mat: Yeah, i guess it
could beat down killer robots, but why?
Bub: Grrrroooowwwllll!
Mat: Over
there? Huh, who knew? Ok, blast 'em!
*BOOM!*
So i'm not subtle, so what? i
obviously like breaking things, how bout this, FM and Jen, use this
as something of a diversion and take out the command, or something? The
plant has a point... i for one wonder who's controlling these things.
