Hunters: Game 13
Start of #BugHunters
buffer: Sun Feb 01 23:17:25 2004
* Now talking in #BugHunters
* Topic is 'Session 13: Choices | OOC Channel: #BugOOC | '
* Set by DreaMwrite on Sun Feb 01 19:51:36
* Douglas has joined #BugHunters
* Daemon has joined #BugHunters
* Pestilence has joined #BugHunters
* Chibi-Moogle is now known as Arich
<DreaMwrite> As we last left our heroes they had been put in
quite a difficult situation. After breaking back into the
lab they had found the underground path into the Bug Hive.
The problem is Arich and Daemon decided to go on ahead.
After following their footprints into an underground room
Darsh found a large ritual chamber with Arich and Daemon
calmly staring at it. According to Pestilence it was the
end of the world...
<Daemon> "Am I in the right spot yet?"
<Darsh> "Okay, well if no one is listening ... then I guess it
is time to get someone's attention."
* Darsh fires the Gravion Crusher at the blue bug *
* Daemon falls back at the sight of the blast and out of his
daze
<DreaMwrite> The Gravion Crusher flies right toward the Blue
Bug, smashing into an odd yellow bubble that has now been
put up around him. It is crackling with electricity.
* Arich snaps out it as well after seeing the blast fly by.
* Daemon pulls his arm away and look sidelong at Darsh, then
enacts his darkness abilitys and lungs at his mecha fist
flying at his midsection.
<DreaMwrite> Darsh hurries out of the way as Daemon smashes
his fist into the ground where he was.
<DreaMwrite> The giant mecha of the Bugs then unleashes his
many tentacles and stomps over in front of the Blue Bug,
blocking him out.
<Darsh> "Zalgallas ... looks like we might have to kill
everyone here."
<DreaMwrite> The tall, thin mecha then opens up containers
around its body, revealing many floating orbs.
* Daemon snarls at his miss and snaps his head towards Darsh
again getting ready to attack (When it's my turn again :P)
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
<Mike> "It looks like Daemon has seen the light. It is all
over, Darsh, give up now and welcome the end of war and
pain."
* Darsh looks around * "Damn ... 6 on 1 ... not very fair. And
what do I get for embracing it?"
* Mike moves his mecha closer to Darsh. Giant angelic wings
shoot out from the back of his mecha and a large red energy
sword appears in his hand, the mecha's eyes glowing red as
well.
<Darsh> "Well, if I agree to join you, does that mean I at
least get to live for a while longer?"
<Mike> "The angel of death has awaken. It is time to end it
all."
<Mike> "All you need do is wait for that Bug there to summon
up the power from us to bring to him one of the most
powerful weapon's ever know. Whether you chose to fight or
not it will all be over soon."
<Darsh> "Well why don't we discuss options here? I'd rather
not fight and kill my friends if I don't have to ... despite
what it means for the world."
* Arich turns to fire a shot from his gun at the nearest bad
guy.
<DreaMwrite> * Arich fires off his blast toward Mike.
* Mike voice seems to change some to a calmer tone, "Darsh,
you must destroy the Blue Bug before its too late. If you
don't they will wipe out everything. I can't fight back for
long."
* Mike raises his right arm as a shield forms expanding from
the gem on his right arm. It shatters into a million pieces
from the blast.
<Arich> "Hmm..."
<DreaMwrite> There is a breif silence. Those words are the
last you hear of Darsh...
<DreaMwrite> <Mike
<Darsh> "Arich ... if we're still on the same side then do me
a favor. Get out of here as fast as you can! I'll try and
cover your retreat!"
* Darsh pushes a few buttons and activates one of his weapons *
* Mike is now known as Pestilence
<Pestilence> "No one is getting out of here alive."
<Arich> "Sorry Darsh, I have to stay and fight too."
<Darsh> "They need us all here, so if one of us goes that
helps ruin their plans. Besides ... you'll just be in my
way!"
* Pestilence opens up the canester from his chest with the
black hole. The canester opens and releases a swarm of
mechanical locust from it.
<DreaMwrite> Just then Douglas busts in through the cieling, a
large hole up above showing that he had most likely used his
sensors to discover your positions and blast a hole to the
three of you.
* Darsh can be heard mumbling *
<Darsh> "Damn it ... this isn't helping matters."
* Daemon shakes off his possession and pulls both guns to fire
stright at Pestilence at his canister releasing
* Pestilence backs away some as the bullets hit his canester
which shows a small crack.
<Pestilence> "Shit..."
<DreaMwrite> Just then everyone notice a timer appearing on
their console inside their mecha. It is a count down of
some kind starting at 3 minutes.
<DreaMwrite> ...
* Daemon looks at Pestilence and the crack, then makes another
shot right at the same location.
* Pestilence shutters from an electrical charge coming from
the canester on his chest which is once against hit by
Daemon's gun. The canester's crack is much bigger now, it
looks like one more hit and it'll shatter.
* Daemon grins from inside of his suit and lets his last set
of shots fire aiming for the now large crack with both guns
again.
* Pestilence jumps back as the bullet hits the ground in front
of him.
* Arich points his gun at Darsh. "We all must do what we have
to." He pulls the trigger.
* DreaMwrite has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by
peer )
* Pestilence has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by
peer )
* DreaMwritePH has joined #BugHunters
* DreaMwritePH is now known as DreaMwrite
* Pestilence has joined #BugHunters
<DreaMwrite> A giant energy wave blasts from Arich's gun and
smashes into Darsh with an intense force. The EGL-0 now
covered in sparks and charred from the blast.
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
* Mike moves in for the kill his sword ready, heading straight
toward Darsh.
* Mike moves with such unbelievable speed that he slashes his
energy sword across the EGL-0's chest creating a nasty mark.
<Douglas> "I really don't think we want to be here when this
countdown completes..."
<Darsh> "Then hurry and go!"
<Douglas> *the Valcionne J's shoulder plates open up and
launch a volley of rockets at the Blue Bug*
<Mike> "It doesn't matter where you go. You four have started
the count down.
<DreaMwrite> Douglas fires off his rockets which slam all
around the big mecha as well as damaging the field around
the Blue Bug in the process.
<DreaMwrite> The tentacle mecha seems to be just standing
there motionless as you are sure the Blue Bug behind him
continues the ritual. The timer seems to be going down with
every thought...
<DreaMwrite> The tall, thin Mecha moves his orbs in front of
the tentacle mecha which create a large wall of energy.
* Mike is now known as Pestilence
<Pestilence> "Foolish human trying to destroy my power source
like that. Take this!"
* Pestilence motions a claw forward with a massive wave of
locust heading straight toward Daemon.
<DreaMwrite> The swarm of locust surround Daemon and begin
tearing at his suit, ripping off hunks of armor.
<Darsh> The EGL-0 glows with energy for a brief moment, then
an enormous golden shockwave emits from his mecha spreading
outward completely consuming the EGL-0 in the light.
<DreaMwrite> The energy explodes all around him, blinding the
area in a flash of light...
<DreaMwrite> When the field clears the first thing noticed is
Pestilence standing there, his black whole generator
cracking and then splitting apart, glass falling to the
ground.
<Pestilence> "It looks like my time is over..."
* Pestilence explodes in a field of darkness and then implodes
into it, sucking all the mechanical locust in the process.
Afterwards there is nothing where he stood.
<DreaMwrite> The little orbs creating the field in front of
the giant mecha also drop to the ground, their force field
shattering in the process. Their controller, the tall thin
mecha also falls down onto its knees.
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
<Mike> "Ha. Nice job Darsh."
* Mike has his wings covered in soot and are crumbling some,
but his mecha appears generally undamaged except for some
scratches.
<Mike> "You see Darsh our mecha have something in common. One
is they can take a lot of shit and keep going."
<Mike> "Second they were a failed attempt by a Bug to merge
with these mecha."
<Darsh> "Hehe ... ack! ... that's because Zalgallas is too ...
eerrr ... strong for a bug."
* Darsh chuckles slightly, but clearly in pain *
<Daemon> "Lets see if I can hit you this time" *Daemon lifts
his two guns and takes another set of shots at the
Tenticaled bugs main body, hoping to take down another
guard.*
<DreaMwrite> Our heroes look pretty bad at this point, their
mecha's are covered in battle scars and look about to fall
apart with the wrong move. They feel pained but know that
there is no turning back. It feels like this may be the
last battle.
* Darsh and the EGL-0 fall to their knees *
<Mike> "But you see Darsh, I have been able to tap into my
mecha's hidden power thanks to being almost completely Bug
now. You cannot hope to win. None of you can."
<DreaMwrite> A small dent appears in the giant mecha as one of
Daemon's bullets hit the giant mecha which appears to be
standing there as a statue at this point.
* Arich turns to the tentacled mecha to unleash another blast.
<DreaMwrite> Followed by the dent in the giant mecha Arich
unleashes his giant energy blast which rips a hole right
through the stomach of the giant mecha. With a hole the
size of a horse the giant mecha just stands there a moment
before falling to the ground in a pile of green blood.
<Mike> "You cannot stop the process now. I shall not let you
even if that means killing you all!"
<Arich> "You can try..."
* Mike zooms over toward Arich, holding his sword with two
hands now and its size greatly increased. He makes a jabbing
motion at him.
* Mike misses as Arich slides out of the way and then makes
another slash motion at Arich's side.
* Mike slashes his sword right across Arich's mecha creating a
giant gash as sparks fly and his left arm is severed from
his body...
<Mike> "No more energy blasts for you."
<DreaMwrite> * Arich falls to his knees in pain, you can hear
him breathing heavily over the radio.
* Darsh is breathing heavily *
<Darsh> "What ... what is happening to me? What is ...
aaaaAAHHHHHH!!!!!!"
* Darsh screams in pain as the EGL-0 seems to undergo a
transformation *
<Darsh> Spikes form all around the mecha with the exception of
the wings. Swords rip through the outer arm pieces of each
arm and extend over the hands of the mecha. Its skin
darkens and becomes more faded and dark in color, though
still staying generally gold. The wings on the back merge
into one for a brief second, the separate and switch in
positioning (the bat wings now concealing the feathered
ones). The link from his radio goes dead.
* Mike screams over the radio with an intense fear,"No! It
isn't possable!"
<Douglas> "whoa... alrighty then!"
* Douglas charges towards the blue bug again with hyper lance
at the ready
* Darsh and the EGL-0 now stand to their feet (had fallen to
their knees right before the transformation) *
<DreaMwrite> The force field disapates as Douglas hits the
field with his hyper lance. In the process bits of
electricity surround the lance causing it to explode into
millions of pieces.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug then turns around to face you,
Douglas, as behind him forms a large black portal which is
growing large. You look toward the timer on your console
and see that you only have one minute left...
* Mike holds his position, facing darsh, his sword held in a
ready position.
<Douglas> "Engaging Heat Claws"
<Douglas> *glowing red claws extend from the Valcionne J's
wrists*
* Douglas slashes at the blue bug's now exposed body
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug ducks, still not moving from his
position near the portal.
* Darsh looks over to Mike. He moves oddly, no longer like a
mecha, but as a more fluid motion as it were a person. Then
he lunges towards Mike with both sword arms in front going
for a dual sword strike *
* Mike slips up and is not able to move out of the way fast
enough. Darsh jabs his swords into his stomach, yanking them
out and noticing they are covered in green blood...
* Mike does looks so good inside his mecha, but is still
standing. He takes advantage of his close vacinity to Darsh
to stab his sword into him.
<DreaMwrite> The sword goes true to its point, Mike stabbing
his sword right through Darsh's stomach. The sword comes
out the other side.
* Daemon moves as quickly as he can, limping over ot grab
archs gun, then takes it and unleashs it's power un the blue
bug.
<DreaMwrite> The giant wave of energy blasts right through him
creating a swirl in his body and then blowing up the
sarcophigus behind him into a million pieces. The black
portal behind him closes...
<Daemon> "Well....damn the luck.."
* Daemon doesn't seem to register things blowing up much
anymore as his mind partly glazes over.
<DreaMwrite> The blue bug turns back to see the shatted
sarcophigus and then turns back at the three of you left
standing, his eyes squinting in a very pissed off manor.
* Daemon tries to fire the gun again in the same manor hoping
that it will connect with something this time.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug ducks out of the way and the blast
just makes a deeper hole behind him.
<DreaMwrite> His body appears charged with electricity and the
electricity field is forming around him again. You notice
that the timer on the console has stopped at 30 seconds...
<Mike> "No! Look what you have done! This will be your final
resting place! For all of you!"
* Douglas backs away a bit from the energy field and fires the
Möbius Smasher at the Bluer Bug
<Mike> "He is through toying with you! The whole point of
everything that has happened was to bring you here to this
spot! If your mecha are destroyed there will be no hope
anyways."
<DreaMwrite> Douglas appears a little startled by the feild
and misses with his attack.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug then let's out a giant burst of
electricity toward Daemon, coming from the energy field
surrounding him.
* Daemon drops the gun and tries to dodge to the far wall
<DreaMwrite> Daemon is able to jump out of the way, the energy
blast hitting right onto the ground and blowing a huge
crater where Daemon once stood. There is no sign of Arich's
gun in the rubble...
* Mike stops and stabs his sword into the ground, falling to
one knee. "I..must..not...give in!"
* Darsh repeats his twin sword slash (trying to separate one
to slice of his sword arm and the other just slashing across
teh middle of the mecha -- if possible) *
* Mike is sliced twice by Darsh's attack his mecha finally put
to rest as it crumbles into a pile of metal...
* Daemon looks quickly for Arichs gun, then not seeing it
quick enough pulls his back out and lets two more rounds go,
one at teh blue bug, the second at the cieling above the bug.
<DreaMwrite> Dust blows by over the battle field... The
ground is covered in blood and metal. All that is standing
is the blue Bug and the three heroes who had begun the Bug
hunt...
<DreaMwrite> Daemon blasts apart the field with two hits and
then smashes the ceiling above. The underground room shakes
as the ceiling gives way above the blue Bug rocks and soot
topple on top of it till there is nothing to be seen...
<DreaMwrite> Silence fills the battle field. You hear
screaching sounds in the distance and massive chaos of
smashing and crunching.
<Daemon> "Look..livily..."
<DreaMwrite> Then there is silence once again...
* Daemon looks at the pile, fighting to stay alert while
checking for any sign of movement.
<Douglas> ".............."
<Douglas> "did we just win?..."
<DreaMwrite> The EGL-0 then shuts down, kicking Darsh out of
it in the process. Darsh is knocked into the dirt.
* Darsh turns the EGL-0 back to the other pilots and their
mecha. He still looks as if ready to fight *
<Douglas> *all is silent but for the hum of the Valcionne J's
claws...*
* Darsh has cuts on his body along with several welts over his
body *
<DreaMwrite> Your radar all becomes active again.
<DreaMwrite> You are getting 0 Bug readings.
<Douglas> *checks the timer of doom*
<DreaMwrite> The timer has stopped at 30 seconds.
<Douglas> "well now..."
* Darsh has gold glow coming from the hands and part of his
head. It looks as if part of a circuit *
<Daemon> "Need it's body...I need to see it.."
* Daemon holsters his guns and starts digging
* Douglas relaxes a little and looks aroudn the room surveying
the scene
<DreaMwrite> A blue claw shoots out of the dirt and rocks as
Daemon digs.
<DreaMwrite> It then falls limp...
* Darsh has yet to move and is still laying on the ground *
* Daemon gets a grim look on his face, and fires a few more
shots into any exposed body part of the bug that he can find.
<Douglas> "alas poor Mike..."
<DreaMwrite> Arich is then knocked out of his mecha, he is now
missing his left arm...
<Douglas> "Alright, who's still operational?"
<Douglas> "well that answers that"
<DreaMwrite> The mecha he was in then make a small explosion
and crumbles to pieces.
* Darsh moves his hand slightly. It seems as if he is
regaining consciousness *
* Arich slowly wakes up. "agh... What the hell happened..."
* Douglas disengages the heat claws
* Daemon when he runs out of spots to shot, digs up some more
of the blue bug, then fires some more untill he's good and
sure it's dead.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug appears completely solid now Daemon
and you turn him into swiss cheese.
<Douglas> "well, we failed one mission but succedded at
another"
* Darsh struggles up. At first only pushing up from the ground
and to his knees. His arms (up to the elbow) and part of his
forehead and cheek still glow *
* Arich stands himself up and notices hes not in his mecha
anymore. "What happened to my mecha..."
* Darsh musters to his feet, then falls back down to his knees
breathing heavily. The glow flickers for a few moments and
then vanishes *
* Douglas places an upturned palm in front of Darsh*
<Douglas> "need a lift?"
* Darsh looks up to Douglas and takes his hand *
<DreaMwrite> A dozen figures fall down from the hole Douglas
had made and topple on top of Daemon.
<Douglas> "whoa, I'll get back to you on that"
* Douglas turns to see what's going on
<Darsh> The form of the EGL-0 returns to normal.
<DreaMwrite> Daemon you find yourself covered in a bunch of
crazy love crazed girls...and one guy..
<Douglas> "Hah! You dog!"
<DreaMwrite> "Ohh Daemon you destroyed all the Bugs!" "Oh
Daemon is sooo Dreamy!"
* Daemon blinks in confusion a few times then realizes whats
going on.
* Douglas offers Darsh and Arich a ride again
<DreaMwrite> You guys hear over the radio. "I'm sorry guys
they seemed to have snuck on board the cargo plane."
<Daemon> "That's right ladies! I've done it again...and here
are my partners in crime!" *points to the others in hopes
that some of them would be mobbed instead*
<DreaMwrite> "But they are right. It appears all the Bugs
have ended up killing eachother!"
<Arich> "Well... Thats annoying." He accepts the offer wanting
to get outta here.
* Darsh gets to his feet and seems to hold firmly now. He
seems as if he is regaining his strength. He walks up to the
EGL-0 *
<Darsh> "You did it friend. I owe you my thanks."
* Darsh rests his head against the EGL-0 *
<DreaMwrite> The man continues talking over the radio, "Its
all over! The Bugs are finally gone!"
<Darsh> "Tell me, did you finally learn moer about yourself?"
<DreaMwrite> The EGL-0 lifts itself up and puts its giant arm
on Darsh's shoulder and nods its head.
* Daemon tries to move the crowd over in Darshs direction.
<Daemon> "You know, as creepy as that is, I'm glad you and
your Mecha pulled through."
* Darsh looks to the others *
<Douglas> "What say we go home?"
<Daemon> "I need a nap...a nice...long name...."
<Daemon> *nap*
<Darsh> "Guys, I think Zalgallas and I are going to disappear
for a while. I don't think the military is the place for
us. But I may come back some time."
<Douglas> "I trust you can handle your fans?"
* Darsh opens the EGL-0 and hops in *
<Douglas> "I'd have to agree with you Lieutenant"
<Daemon> "No...and I'm not sure I want to try anymore.."
*Daemon says over a private channel to anyone still in their
mechas..*
<Douglas> "I'm a bit wary of relinquishing these things back
to those jackasses..."
* Arich sighs. "Im gunna miss my mecha..."
<Daemon> "So lets all dissapear...I'll go, if you'll all have
me."
<Douglas> "we can say our goodbyes once we get back to the
surface"
<Darsh> "Agreed."
* Darsh moves over to the shattered mecha of Arich and picks
it up (if he can) *
* Daemon picks up the best looking female, then gets to a
clear spot and bounds up the walls to the top.
<DreaMwrite> Arich glows a little blue for a moment and bolts
of electricity begin to travel from him to his mecha. In a
matter of moments it begins to grow a new arm as does
Arich...
* Douglas picks up Arich and begins flying back to ground-level
* Arich blinks for a second and then looks at his new left
arm. "That was interesting..."
<DreaMwrite> The mecha grabs Arich before he can react and
places him back into the cockpit.
* Darsh moves the EGL-0 to the whole Douglas made and then
flies straight up *
* Daemon idly wonders if the bug juice is still affecting him,
and waits for the others at the top.
<DreaMwrite> And so our heroes move on, out of the city of Las
Vegas, never to visit it or any military bases ever again...
<Arich> "Alright! Lets go." He transforms into Jet mode and
flies up through the hole.
<Arich> (Note to log editness: that last thing I said before
what DM said)
<DreaMwrite> The Bugs also never appear again. Without the
control of the Blue Bug all the hives which had been made
have fallen apart till there was not a Bug left standing.
Earth prospers from the new discoveries made from the mecha
and bring about a time of great peace for many years.
* Mike has quit IRC (Ping timeout )
* DreaMwritePH has joined #BugHunters
* DreaMwrite has quit IRC (Ping timeout )
<DreaMwritePH> Our heroes continue on their way. Never again
to be seen by the U.S. military again, though always waiting
for a time when their skills and abilities will be needed
once again...
<DreaMwritePH> The End.
* DreaMwritePH is now known as DreaMwrite
* Darsh is now known as Prysus
* Douglas is now known as TinkerDragoon
* DreaMwrite has left #BugHunters

<DreaMwrite> As we last left our heroes they had been put in
quite a difficult situation. After breaking back into the

The problem is Arich and Daemon decided to go on ahead.
After following their footprints into an underground room
Darsh found a large ritual chamber with Arich and Daemon

end of the world...
<Daemon> "Am I in the right spot yet?"
<Darsh> "Okay, well if no one is listening ... then I guess it
is time to get someone's attention."
* Darsh fires the Gravion Crusher at the blue bug *
* Daemon falls back at the sight of the blast and out of his
daze
<DreaMwrite> The Gravion Crusher flies right toward the Blue
Bug, smashing into an odd yellow bubble that has now been
put up around him. It is crackling with electricity.
* Arich snaps out it as well after seeing the blast fly by.
* Daemon pulls his arm away and look sidelong at Darsh, then
enacts his darkness abilitys and lungs at his mecha fist
flying at his midsection.
<DreaMwrite> Darsh hurries out of the way as Daemon smashes
his fist into the ground where he was.
<DreaMwrite> The giant mecha of the Bugs then unleashes his
many tentacles and stomps over in front of the Blue Bug,
blocking him out.
<Darsh> "Zalgallas ... looks like we might have to kill
everyone here."
<DreaMwrite> The tall, thin mecha then opens up containers
around its body, revealing many floating orbs.
* Daemon snarls at his miss and snaps his head towards Darsh
again getting ready to attack (When it's my turn again :P)
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
<Mike> "It looks like Daemon has seen the light. It is all
over, Darsh, give up now and welcome the end of war and
pain."
* Darsh looks around * "Damn ... 6 on 1 ... not very fair. And
what do I get for embracing it?"
* Mike moves his mecha closer to Darsh. Giant angelic wings
shoot out from the back of his mecha and a large red energy
sword appears in his hand, the mecha's eyes glowing red as
well.
<Darsh> "Well, if I agree to join you, does that mean I at
least get to live for a while longer?"
<Mike> "The angel of death has awaken. It is time to end it

<Mike> "All you need do is wait for that Bug there to summon
up the power from us to bring to him one of the most
powerful weapon's ever know. Whether you chose to fight or
not it will all be over soon."
<Darsh> "Well why don't we discuss options here? I'd rather
not fight and kill my friends if I don't have to ... despite
what it means for the world."
* Arich turns to fire a shot from his gun at the nearest bad
guy.
<DreaMwrite> * Arich fires off his blast toward Mike.
* Mike voice seems to change some to a calmer tone, "Darsh,
you must destroy the Blue Bug before its too late. If you
don't they will wipe out everything. I can't fight back for
long."
* Mike raises his right arm as a shield forms expanding from
the gem on his right arm. It shatters into a million pieces
from the blast.
<Arich> "Hmm..."
<DreaMwrite> There is a breif silence. Those words are the
last you hear of Darsh...
<DreaMwrite> <Mike
<Darsh> "Arich ... if we're still on the same side then do me
a favor. Get out of here as fast as you can! I'll try and
cover your retreat!"
* Darsh pushes a few buttons and activates one of his weapons *
* Mike is now known as Pestilence
<Pestilence> "No one is getting out of here alive."
<Arich> "Sorry Darsh, I have to stay and fight too."
<Darsh> "They need us all here, so if one of us goes that
helps ruin their plans. Besides ... you'll just be in my
way!"
* Pestilence opens up the canester from his chest with the
black hole. The canester opens and releases a swarm of
mechanical locust from it.
<DreaMwrite> Just then Douglas busts in through the cieling, a
large hole up above showing that he had most likely used his
sensors to discover your positions and blast a hole to the
three of you.
* Darsh can be heard mumbling *
<Darsh> "Damn it ... this isn't helping matters."
* Daemon shakes off his possession and pulls both guns to fire
stright at Pestilence at his canister releasing
* Pestilence backs away some as the bullets hit his canester
which shows a small crack.
<Pestilence> "Shit..."
<DreaMwrite> Just then everyone notice a timer appearing on
their console inside their mecha. It is a count down of
some kind starting at 3 minutes.
<DreaMwrite> ...
* Daemon looks at Pestilence and the crack, then makes another
shot right at the same location.
* Pestilence shutters from an electrical charge coming from
the canester on his chest which is once against hit by
Daemon's gun. The canester's crack is much bigger now, it
looks like one more hit and it'll shatter.
* Daemon grins from inside of his suit and lets his last set
of shots fire aiming for the now large crack with both guns
again.
* Pestilence jumps back as the bullet hits the ground in front
of him.
* Arich points his gun at Darsh. "We all must do what we have
to." He pulls the trigger.
* DreaMwrite has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by
peer )
* Pestilence has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by
peer )
* DreaMwritePH has joined #BugHunters
* DreaMwritePH is now known as DreaMwrite
* Pestilence has joined #BugHunters
<DreaMwrite> A giant energy wave blasts from Arich's gun and
smashes into Darsh with an intense force. The EGL-0 now
covered in sparks and charred from the blast.
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
* Mike moves in for the kill his sword ready, heading straight
toward Darsh.
* Mike moves with such unbelievable speed that he slashes his
energy sword across the EGL-0's chest creating a nasty mark.
<Douglas> "I really don't think we want to be here when this
countdown completes..."
<Darsh> "Then hurry and go!"
<Douglas> *the Valcionne J's shoulder plates open up and
launch a volley of rockets at the Blue Bug*
<Mike> "It doesn't matter where you go. You four have started
the count down.
<DreaMwrite> Douglas fires off his rockets which slam all
around the big mecha as well as damaging the field around
the Blue Bug in the process.
<DreaMwrite> The tentacle mecha seems to be just standing
there motionless as you are sure the Blue Bug behind him
continues the ritual. The timer seems to be going down with
every thought...
<DreaMwrite> The tall, thin Mecha moves his orbs in front of
the tentacle mecha which create a large wall of energy.
* Mike is now known as Pestilence
<Pestilence> "Foolish human trying to destroy my power source
like that. Take this!"
* Pestilence motions a claw forward with a massive wave of
locust heading straight toward Daemon.
<DreaMwrite> The swarm of locust surround Daemon and begin
tearing at his suit, ripping off hunks of armor.
<Darsh> The EGL-0 glows with energy for a brief moment, then
an enormous golden shockwave emits from his mecha spreading
outward completely consuming the EGL-0 in the light.
<DreaMwrite> The energy explodes all around him, blinding the
area in a flash of light...
<DreaMwrite> When the field clears the first thing noticed is
Pestilence standing there, his black whole generator
cracking and then splitting apart, glass falling to the
ground.
<Pestilence> "It looks like my time is over..."
* Pestilence explodes in a field of darkness and then implodes
into it, sucking all the mechanical locust in the process.
Afterwards there is nothing where he stood.
<DreaMwrite> The little orbs creating the field in front of
the giant mecha also drop to the ground, their force field
shattering in the process. Their controller, the tall thin
mecha also falls down onto its knees.
* Pestilence is now known as Mike
<Mike> "Ha. Nice job Darsh."
* Mike has his wings covered in soot and are crumbling some,
but his mecha appears generally undamaged except for some
scratches.
<Mike> "You see Darsh our mecha have something in common. One
is they can take a lot of shit and keep going."
<Mike> "Second they were a failed attempt by a Bug to merge
with these mecha."
<Darsh> "Hehe ... ack! ... that's because Zalgallas is too ...
eerrr ... strong for a bug."
* Darsh chuckles slightly, but clearly in pain *
<Daemon> "Lets see if I can hit you this time" *Daemon lifts
his two guns and takes another set of shots at the
Tenticaled bugs main body, hoping to take down another
guard.*
<DreaMwrite> Our heroes look pretty bad at this point, their
mecha's are covered in battle scars and look about to fall
apart with the wrong move. They feel pained but know that
there is no turning back. It feels like this may be the
last battle.
* Darsh and the EGL-0 fall to their knees *
<Mike> "But you see Darsh, I have been able to tap into my
mecha's hidden power thanks to being almost completely Bug
now. You cannot hope to win. None of you can."
<DreaMwrite> A small dent appears in the giant mecha as one of
Daemon's bullets hit the giant mecha which appears to be
standing there as a statue at this point.
* Arich turns to the tentacled mecha to unleash another blast.
<DreaMwrite> Followed by the dent in the giant mecha Arich
unleashes his giant energy blast which rips a hole right
through the stomach of the giant mecha. With a hole the
size of a horse the giant mecha just stands there a moment
before falling to the ground in a pile of green blood.
<Mike> "You cannot stop the process now. I shall not let you
even if that means killing you all!"
<Arich> "You can try..."
* Mike zooms over toward Arich, holding his sword with two
hands now and its size greatly increased. He makes a jabbing
motion at him.
* Mike misses as Arich slides out of the way and then makes
another slash motion at Arich's side.
* Mike slashes his sword right across Arich's mecha creating a
giant gash as sparks fly and his left arm is severed from
his body...
<Mike> "No more energy blasts for you."
<DreaMwrite> * Arich falls to his knees in pain, you can hear
him breathing heavily over the radio.
* Darsh is breathing heavily *
<Darsh> "What ... what is happening to me? What is ...
aaaaAAHHHHHH!!!!!!"
* Darsh screams in pain as the EGL-0 seems to undergo a
transformation *
<Darsh> Spikes form all around the mecha with the exception of
the wings. Swords rip through the outer arm pieces of each
arm and extend over the hands of the mecha. Its skin
darkens and becomes more faded and dark in color, though
still staying generally gold. The wings on the back merge
into one for a brief second, the separate and switch in
positioning (the bat wings now concealing the feathered
ones). The link from his radio goes dead.
* Mike screams over the radio with an intense fear,"No! It
isn't possable!"
<Douglas> "whoa... alrighty then!"
* Douglas charges towards the blue bug again with hyper lance
at the ready
* Darsh and the EGL-0 now stand to their feet (had fallen to
their knees right before the transformation) *
<DreaMwrite> The force field disapates as Douglas hits the
field with his hyper lance. In the process bits of
electricity surround the lance causing it to explode into
millions of pieces.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug then turns around to face you,
Douglas, as behind him forms a large black portal which is
growing large. You look toward the timer on your console
and see that you only have one minute left...
* Mike holds his position, facing darsh, his sword held in a
ready position.
<Douglas> "Engaging Heat Claws"
<Douglas> *glowing red claws extend from the Valcionne J's
wrists*
* Douglas slashes at the blue bug's now exposed body
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug ducks, still not moving from his
position near the portal.
* Darsh looks over to Mike. He moves oddly, no longer like a
mecha, but as a more fluid motion as it were a person. Then
he lunges towards Mike with both sword arms in front going
for a dual sword strike *
* Mike slips up and is not able to move out of the way fast
enough. Darsh jabs his swords into his stomach, yanking them
out and noticing they are covered in green blood...
* Mike does looks so good inside his mecha, but is still
standing. He takes advantage of his close vacinity to Darsh
to stab his sword into him.
<DreaMwrite> The sword goes true to its point, Mike stabbing
his sword right through Darsh's stomach. The sword comes
out the other side.
* Daemon moves as quickly as he can, limping over ot grab
archs gun, then takes it and unleashs it's power un the blue
bug.
<DreaMwrite> The giant wave of energy blasts right through him
creating a swirl in his body and then blowing up the
sarcophigus behind him into a million pieces. The black
portal behind him closes...
<Daemon> "Well....damn the luck.."
* Daemon doesn't seem to register things blowing up much
anymore as his mind partly glazes over.
<DreaMwrite> The blue bug turns back to see the shatted
sarcophigus and then turns back at the three of you left
standing, his eyes squinting in a very pissed off manor.
* Daemon tries to fire the gun again in the same manor hoping
that it will connect with something this time.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug ducks out of the way and the blast
just makes a deeper hole behind him.
<DreaMwrite> His body appears charged with electricity and the
electricity field is forming around him again. You notice
that the timer on the console has stopped at 30 seconds...
<Mike> "No! Look what you have done! This will be your final
resting place! For all of you!"
* Douglas backs away a bit from the energy field and fires the
Möbius Smasher at the Bluer Bug
<Mike> "He is through toying with you! The whole point of
everything that has happened was to bring you here to this
spot! If your mecha are destroyed there will be no hope
anyways."
<DreaMwrite> Douglas appears a little startled by the feild
and misses with his attack.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug then let's out a giant burst of
electricity toward Daemon, coming from the energy field
surrounding him.
* Daemon drops the gun and tries to dodge to the far wall
<DreaMwrite> Daemon is able to jump out of the way, the energy
blast hitting right onto the ground and blowing a huge
crater where Daemon once stood. There is no sign of Arich's
gun in the rubble...
* Mike stops and stabs his sword into the ground, falling to
one knee. "I..must..not...give in!"
* Darsh repeats his twin sword slash (trying to separate one
to slice of his sword arm and the other just slashing across
teh middle of the mecha -- if possible) *
* Mike is sliced twice by Darsh's attack his mecha finally put
to rest as it crumbles into a pile of metal...
* Daemon looks quickly for Arichs gun, then not seeing it
quick enough pulls his back out and lets two more rounds go,
one at teh blue bug, the second at the cieling above the bug.
<DreaMwrite> Dust blows by over the battle field... The
ground is covered in blood and metal. All that is standing
is the blue Bug and the three heroes who had begun the Bug
hunt...
<DreaMwrite> Daemon blasts apart the field with two hits and
then smashes the ceiling above. The underground room shakes
as the ceiling gives way above the blue Bug rocks and soot
topple on top of it till there is nothing to be seen...
<DreaMwrite> Silence fills the battle field. You hear
screaching sounds in the distance and massive chaos of
smashing and crunching.
<Daemon> "Look..livily..."
<DreaMwrite> Then there is silence once again...
* Daemon looks at the pile, fighting to stay alert while
checking for any sign of movement.
<Douglas> ".............."
<Douglas> "did we just win?..."
<DreaMwrite> The EGL-0 then shuts down, kicking Darsh out of
it in the process. Darsh is knocked into the dirt.
* Darsh turns the EGL-0 back to the other pilots and their
mecha. He still looks as if ready to fight *
<Douglas> *all is silent but for the hum of the Valcionne J's
claws...*
* Darsh has cuts on his body along with several welts over his
body *
<DreaMwrite> Your radar all becomes active again.
<DreaMwrite> You are getting 0 Bug readings.
<Douglas> *checks the timer of doom*
<DreaMwrite> The timer has stopped at 30 seconds.
<Douglas> "well now..."
* Darsh has gold glow coming from the hands and part of his
head. It looks as if part of a circuit *
<Daemon> "Need it's body...I need to see it.."
* Daemon holsters his guns and starts digging
* Douglas relaxes a little and looks aroudn the room surveying
the scene
<DreaMwrite> A blue claw shoots out of the dirt and rocks as
Daemon digs.
<DreaMwrite> It then falls limp...
* Darsh has yet to move and is still laying on the ground *
* Daemon gets a grim look on his face, and fires a few more
shots into any exposed body part of the bug that he can find.
<Douglas> "alas poor Mike..."
<DreaMwrite> Arich is then knocked out of his mecha, he is now
missing his left arm...
<Douglas> "Alright, who's still operational?"
<Douglas> "well that answers that"
<DreaMwrite> The mecha he was in then make a small explosion
and crumbles to pieces.
* Darsh moves his hand slightly. It seems as if he is
regaining consciousness *
* Arich slowly wakes up. "agh... What the hell happened..."
* Douglas disengages the heat claws
* Daemon when he runs out of spots to shot, digs up some more
of the blue bug, then fires some more untill he's good and
sure it's dead.
<DreaMwrite> The blue Bug appears completely solid now Daemon
and you turn him into swiss cheese.
<Douglas> "well, we failed one mission but succedded at
another"
* Darsh struggles up. At first only pushing up from the ground
and to his knees. His arms (up to the elbow) and part of his
forehead and cheek still glow *
* Arich stands himself up and notices hes not in his mecha
anymore. "What happened to my mecha..."
* Darsh musters to his feet, then falls back down to his knees
breathing heavily. The glow flickers for a few moments and
then vanishes *
* Douglas places an upturned palm in front of Darsh*
<Douglas> "need a lift?"
* Darsh looks up to Douglas and takes his hand *
<DreaMwrite> A dozen figures fall down from the hole Douglas
had made and topple on top of Daemon.
<Douglas> "whoa, I'll get back to you on that"
* Douglas turns to see what's going on
<Darsh> The form of the EGL-0 returns to normal.
<DreaMwrite> Daemon you find yourself covered in a bunch of
crazy love crazed girls...and one guy..
<Douglas> "Hah! You dog!"
<DreaMwrite> "Ohh Daemon you destroyed all the Bugs!" "Oh
Daemon is sooo Dreamy!"
* Daemon blinks in confusion a few times then realizes whats
going on.
* Douglas offers Darsh and Arich a ride again
<DreaMwrite> You guys hear over the radio. "I'm sorry guys
they seemed to have snuck on board the cargo plane."
<Daemon> "That's right ladies! I've done it again...and here
are my partners in crime!" *points to the others in hopes
that some of them would be mobbed instead*
<DreaMwrite> "But they are right. It appears all the Bugs
have ended up killing eachother!"
<Arich> "Well... Thats annoying." He accepts the offer wanting
to get outta here.
* Darsh gets to his feet and seems to hold firmly now. He
seems as if he is regaining his strength. He walks up to the
EGL-0 *
<Darsh> "You did it friend. I owe you my thanks."
* Darsh rests his head against the EGL-0 *
<DreaMwrite> The man continues talking over the radio, "Its
all over! The Bugs are finally gone!"
<Darsh> "Tell me, did you finally learn moer about yourself?"
<DreaMwrite> The EGL-0 lifts itself up and puts its giant arm
on Darsh's shoulder and nods its head.
* Daemon tries to move the crowd over in Darshs direction.
<Daemon> "You know, as creepy as that is, I'm glad you and
your Mecha pulled through."
* Darsh looks to the others *
<Douglas> "What say we go home?"
<Daemon> "I need a nap...a nice...long name...."
<Daemon> *nap*
<Darsh> "Guys, I think Zalgallas and I are going to disappear
for a while. I don't think the military is the place for
us. But I may come back some time."
<Douglas> "I trust you can handle your fans?"
* Darsh opens the EGL-0 and hops in *
<Douglas> "I'd have to agree with you Lieutenant"
<Daemon> "No...and I'm not sure I want to try anymore.."
*Daemon says over a private channel to anyone still in their
mechas..*
<Douglas> "I'm a bit wary of relinquishing these things back
to those jackasses..."
* Arich sighs. "Im gunna miss my mecha..."
<Daemon> "So lets all dissapear...I'll go, if you'll all have
me."
<Douglas> "we can say our goodbyes once we get back to the
surface"
<Darsh> "Agreed."
* Darsh moves over to the shattered mecha of Arich and picks
it up (if he can) *
* Daemon picks up the best looking female, then gets to a
clear spot and bounds up the walls to the top.
<DreaMwrite> Arich glows a little blue for a moment and bolts
of electricity begin to travel from him to his mecha. In a
matter of moments it begins to grow a new arm as does
Arich...
* Douglas picks up Arich and begins flying back to ground-level
* Arich blinks for a second and then looks at his new left
arm. "That was interesting..."
<DreaMwrite> The mecha grabs Arich before he can react and
places him back into the cockpit.
* Darsh moves the EGL-0 to the whole Douglas made and then
flies straight up *
* Daemon idly wonders if the bug juice is still affecting him,
and waits for the others at the top.
<DreaMwrite> And so our heroes move on, out of the city of Las
Vegas, never to visit it or any military bases ever again...
<Arich> "Alright! Lets go." He transforms into Jet mode and
flies up through the hole.
<Arich> (Note to log editness: that last thing I said before
what DM said)
<DreaMwrite> The Bugs also never appear again. Without the
control of the Blue Bug all the hives which had been made
have fallen apart till there was not a Bug left standing.
Earth prospers from the new discoveries made from the mecha
and bring about a time of great peace for many years.
* Mike has quit IRC (Ping timeout )
* DreaMwritePH has joined #BugHunters
* DreaMwrite has quit IRC (Ping timeout )
<DreaMwritePH> Our heroes continue on their way. Never again
to be seen by the U.S. military again, though always waiting
for a time when their skills and abilities will be needed
once again...
<DreaMwritePH> The End.
* DreaMwritePH is now known as DreaMwrite
* Darsh is now known as Prysus
* Douglas is now known as TinkerDragoon
* DreaMwrite has left #BugHunters
* Daemon has quit IRC (Quit: )
