Destroy the world! (RP)

[GamerKale]

((Thanks for the well wishes Neko. I just hope that more than half the party can show up next time, and that they watch a few episodes of Castle so that they can learn to murder board.))
Father Michael smiled warmly at Kaede, "That is all The Lord asks." Synthetic or not, she is clearly here with The Lord's blessing and doing His work. She has endured much, that much is evident, and all need the support of others from time to time. I shall stay, for a time longer, and look after this flock. An eyebrow rose at Zorlo's comment, "You claim that The Lord is dead, yet you stand with the protection of one of His angels as we speak." He maintained his smile and walked around Kaede putting a gentle hand on Zorlo's shoulder, he spoke in an equally gentle tone, "Walk with me a minute." Father Michael walked over to and climbed on top of the balcony's ledge and gestured towards the ground below. "If you were to ask any of those people if God exists they would answer yes, in a heartbeat." He turned to face Zorlo and offered him a hand up onto the ledge. "Were He dead the wicked would rule without contest and every light of hope would be long extinguished. Yet here stand you and I, two righteous men who would as soon throw ourselves off this building as we would let evil rule."

[Zorolo]

Zorlo scoffed. "You are mildly mistaken, sir. It is not 'God' that protects man from evil, but man itself. Those of strong convictions towards good and justice stand at cusp of war, prepared for when evil attempts to overtake them. It is true that the average person believes there is a 'God', but in the same way that people believe that such a deity, if it existed, cares about their existence. If such a powerful being existed, even had it created mortals, I very much doubt it would be so full of unending love. Man created God because they need someone, in this case someone beyond their comprehension, to watch over them like a parent when darkness enshrouds them. God is the drug the strong use to keep the weak under control. So long as God wills it and the weak continue to lick **** off the boots of their masters, there is a reward after they have died. Between now and then, they live a life of pointless servitude to two unseen masters. Isn't it all rather pointless?"

[GamerKale]

((Y'know what, no. I am not having another one of these arguments. It only ever end with everybody angry at each other.))
"I'm afraid we shall have to disagree for now. Those who do not wish it, cannot change." Father Michael hopped back down from the ledge. "And that's not my department. I shall be below if you have need of me or if you simply wish to talk." He said to Kaede and headed back the way he had come.

[Zorolo]

(Hehe, characters arguing about real world politics always does.)

Zorlo chuckled. "Smart man," he said as he looked away. "Hmm... I'm running out of time," Zorlo muttered as he sighed. "So what the hell am I gonna do?" he mumbled to himself as he started walking again.

[nekoryuuha]

((It's not right, Man. ))

"...Thank you..." Kaede said to the man as he began his long trek downstairs. What had made him so interested in her...? What did he learn, think, or discover? These were questions that Kaede decided to ask at sometime in the future. For now, she would deal with other things and come back to that as it came. The conversation hadn't interested her in the slightest either. After watching Father Michael leave, Kaede walked over to Zorlo. "What's out of time...? What do you need...?" she asked him in mild curiosity as Aurora watched from the rafters.

[GamerKale]

Father Michael found two boys squabbling over an MRE when he reached the ground. "Come now boys. Friends shouldn't fight. We only use violence against monsters and the wicked." "Sorry." They said in unison, eyes downcast. "Here, give that to me." He knelt down, took the MRE in question, seemingly pulled a second out of the top, and then handed one to each of them. "There. Plenty to go around. Go play." "Nice trick." Came a woman's voice behind him as the children ran off, "I didn't even see you pull that second one out." "Thank you." He replied and moved about the community.

Her sign was set against the building, with the brick making sure it didn't move. Murder herself sat in front of the sign with her army men set up, and tossed a bouncy ball off the sign to knock over the little figures while she waited.

[Zorolo]

"I must feed... I've used up too much energy... dammit..." Zorlo muttered as the tattoo on his leg began to glow brighter and his eyes began to shine golden. "I have to hold on... too many normal people around..." the demigod said as he coughed up blood, holding back the spirit's need to feed. "I must be going... I think... that base has plenty of tasty morsels," he said as he leapt from the building and began to air dash towards the military base they had gone to just recently. Well, he'd held back as best he could, anyway.

[nekoryuuha]

"Zorlo...?" Kaede asked. But it was too late, The man was fleeing back toward The Gurren and the Base they occupied. In truth, her was slightly confused as to what he'd meant by 'Feed'. Did he mean it as in blood, like a Vampire...? Or maybe en masse absorption of a target, maybe...? She'd have to remember to ask later, for now, it didn't really concern her all that much now... But then, that base was important too... She looked up at Aurora, whom looked down up her before flying off to her 'home', and sighed slightly. "Support Skill: Transcendent Wings." And took flight.

[GamerKale]

((Ok, it's been near a week since AK last posted. Murder's doing stuff and I hope he doesn't mind me taking some control over Jake.))
It was common enough knowledge that each doomster had a specialty, for Murder that was improvisation including but not limited to weapons. In short, she could out MacGyver MacGyver, but that wasn't all. Jake gave an ear piercing scream, "YOU!!! DIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!" Murder caught her bouncy ball and turned her head to face Jake. He had formed a very large ball of energy above his head and threw it at her as hard as he could. She held an arm outstretched to catch the attack and it sent her crashing through the building. The ball of energy eroded her hand down to the bone before she slapped the bouncy ball into Jake's attack and made it hers. She tossed it up, jumped after it and spiked the ball. It created a small crater and shot off after Jake. He dodged it once, twice, three times, but it kept bouncing off buildings like a pinball. Murder's hand was fully restored by the time she made it back to where she had been sitting, she put away her brick and the army men and hefted the sign with both hands in time to smash the energy ball at Jake, he couldn't dodge it this time, but he did manage to get a barrier up around himself to minimize the damage from the exploding energy ball, but Murder threw her sign before he could recover and so it embedded itself in his side. Down below Murder was clapping, she was impressed that he hadn't stopped moving yet. Most people would have, but this was Big Bird after all so she shouldn't be too surprised.

Father Michael watched the pair of them fly off and asked one of the locals what was over that way. "An old military base? With a gang now inhabiting it? And that's where she gets the supplies she brings back? Seems like a terrible waste of time and energy. I think I shall try to broker a peace agreement. Here, I think it would be better if I didn't wear this, at least for a little while." He handed the woman his scarf, revealing the white collar underneath, retrieved his bicycle, and pedalled off after Kaede and Zorlo.

[Zorolo]

(Hehe. Zorlo and Kaede are heading in different directions. )

Zorlo landed in the base as his eyes began to glow brightly. Powerful winds spun around Zorlo as he transformed into his demon-like form as he moved quickly. The man charged and roared as he ripped one man's arm off and crushed it into pulp before swallowing it. The man roared in pain as alarms started to sound. Zorlo looked around angrily as he stepped forwards and roared. He would eat until he was full.

[kai the pkk]

Sieg: { he feels a strange feeling as he disappears and to Zorlo and the soldiers he's invisible though both of his eyes are glowing red}...where are the reapers?...their suppose to respond to this sort of thing { he looks on and he sees lines of death over the soldier}...tch just a demon rampaging


????: { appears but is also invisible to zorlo and the soldiers} oh well would ya look at that { he walks over towards Sieghart} its been awhile bro..what are you doing responding to something like this

Sieg: they sent you Rei?

Rei: yep you think i'd show up here of all places of my own free will

Sieg: heh yeah i guess not so whats the call

Rei: I was told not to preform an intervention

Sieg: what?!...why not you know as wel as i do these men were not destined to die today!...tch dammit is that what being a reaper truely is about

Rei: yeah i know it bothers me too but what can you do i'll make sure they pass onto the next life...don't do anything rash if u were back to your old self u can atleast fight this demigod on even terms but as you are now you might barely even be able to put a scratch on him

Sieg: rggh this isnt right

[nekoryuuha]

(Don't be so sure, Zorlo...)

The alarms sounded as word spread through the base of what was happening. After the earlier 'attack' by Zorlo and Kaede, the Gurren simply were not as prepared as they would have been, as many were helping out to fix and repair things. The rumors was that this, the transformed Zorlo, was a Demon come to fight or die. It meant trouble for them, as most of the group were powerless, Normal Humans. What could they hope to do...? Even the leader was concerned to this turn or events.

Above, Kaede soared in quietly as she watched Zorlo's rampage begin. Was this what he meant...? The whole-sale slaughter and the devouring of there corpses? ...I do not like this... Kaede thought as she circled, deciding her path.

[GamerKale]

One of Murder's crows lighted down next to the reapers, it turned from the carnage to watch an unusual sight, a man riding up on a bicycle. There was only one man left manning the gate and he was more cowering than manning it. Yet he found his courage when Father Michael called, "Open the gate, quickly now." The gate was opened just wide enough for the father to pass through when he came zooming past. "Gather any survivors and rally with me." He shouted over his shoulder. He didn't know exactly what was going on, but he was certain he was several minutes behind Kaede. And whole he knew she raided these men for supplies, he doubted she would just stand by and let this happen.

The aura of peace he brought with him could discourage a fight from breaking out and even stop some hostilities, but when demons reared their ugly heads, peace was rarely an option. Father Michael leaped from the bike and threw two of his testaments at Zorlo. The attacks were easily deflected, but they had drawn his attention, which had been his goal. His otherwise heroic entrance was marred by a bad landing, although he recovered quickly and positioned himself between the demonic Zorlo and the humans. "Throw yourself on The Lord's mercy and leave and repent now hellborn, or stay and face God's wrath." He removed his glasses and in a flash of light they were replaced by Penance; the warrior-priest held his blessed blade at the ready. "The rest of you, regroup behind me. It is not unstoppable." His presence steeled the resolve of the humans, sharpened their fightening abilities, and helped them to coordinate, making them a much more lethal force to be reckoned with.

[Zorolo]

Zorlo rose from his crouching position and smiled. He'd recovered enough magical energy that control was his again, but this was too much fun to let slip. "Your blessing don't work against powers older than your god, Papist," Zorlo said as he turned back. "Christians, you're so fundamentally flawed. You believe all things started and ended with your savior, but your demon hunting techniques are barely two-thousand years old. Who do you think hunted down the dwellers of the darkness before your kind existed? I can tell you it wasn't the Jews, who were the roots of your religion. They were too busy committing Genocide against Canaanites for simply living."

Zorlo crossed his arms and smiled. "Mages and demigods were the forces that destroyed evil long before Paladins and Priests even became relevant. The only difference is the source of our powers. Maintaining modern magitechnology and the magical powers of the God of Storms isn't as easy as it was in a past age when humans had greater magical powers. My kind can't help our hunger for magic, and normal people have almost no magical power anymore. Since your kind wiped out as many mages and my kind as you could, you've made the remainder of us somewhat unstable at times. So, wanna test it? The mettle of your God against the powers of a much older force, human?"

[kai the pkk]

SIeg: { he watches the priest}

Rei: ya see { a guantlet appears on his left hand}...theirs no reason for us to interfere the priest will handle that { he notices the souls of the dead} sigh { he places his hand with the guantlet on the forehead of the soldiers soul} you may rest now its okay to pass on you can now watch over your loved ones { the soldiers souls dissapear as Rei begins to exercise the souls of the dead} well thankfully these guys are passing on peacefully

Sieg: { he just watches the two}...yeah cause im not allowed to help you with the souls anymore I've been banished and striped of my rank { he looks towards the crow}..a crow?

Rei: { he hears zorlo's speech} " much older force" well thats a demigod for you he sure is confident ahaha this is pretty intertaining

Sieg: it doesnt matter the outcome has allready been decided

[GamerKale]

"Zorlo. You sadden me. I'd thought you were better than trying to pass off atrocious behavior like this as necessary. Hold fire until I give the word." Father Michael pulled a spare pair of glasses out of his coat and pushed them up on his nose. He touched his forehead and made a sign of the cross before he charged and clashed blades with the demigod.

Zorlo was weaker than he had expected so Father Michael pressed the attack, this left him somewhat open and Zorlo stabbed him in the shoulder. A testament appeared in his off hand and he tried to stab Zorlo. The demigod's glove shone brightly and deflected the dagger. The priest took a punch from the shining fist to the chest which sent him back several feet and left a burn. He tossed the testament into the ground behind him, and four more appeared between his fingers which he threw at Zorlo. He dodged one, deflected two with his blade and crushed the last with his glowing hand.

Zorlo realized, almost too late, that the testament he had let past him had been the last piece in forming a cross on the ground. He managed to get out of the holy fire's blast radius, if only just, although his blade wasn't so fortunate. The inferno lasted only an instant, but that was long enough to incinerate the blade completely. Father Michael let go of Penance and eight testaments appeared in his hands, he threw them all at Zorlo as soon as the flames died down. He managed to evade or deflect half of them, but the other four stuck Zorlo in an arm, a leg, a graze on the side, and the last landed in his thigh. Penance was back in his hands before it could even touch the ground, but he did not have the men open fire.

[kai the pkk]

Sieg: { he watches the battle unfold}

Rei: holy crap that was pretty impressive he ended it quick...just who is that priest?

Sieg: Father Michael

Rei: you know him?

Sieg: we met once a long time ago...but heres another question....what about that { he points at a demonic looking monster}

Rei: Crap!...I hate these its a lost soul and it refuses to pass on { he readies his gauntlet}

Sieg: have fun dealing with that

[Zorolo]

Zorlo's eyes became dull for a moment as he stumbled back. His glove began to spark as it powered down. "Dammit... feeding and using that form is too draining... and my body is drained. As of now, the only difference between himself and a normal human was the technological advantage and minor magics he could use. "Zorlo, retreat," a voice said from his forearm communicator. "Dammit..." Zorlo muttered as wind spun beneath his legs and he began his escape. The roar of gunfire erupted as bullets attempted to chase the wind spirit down, but to no avail.

It took a while, but Zorlo had put a good deal of distance between himself and his foes. He needed to rest. "Zorlo... come in, Zorlo..." the communicator said as Zorlo opened it and looked at the person that appeared on the view screen. "Good, you're alive still, I see."

Zorlo nodded as he removed a syringe from within his pocket and stabbed it into his leg. Quickly, the testaments that had been burned into his body were washed away and his body began to heal. "Barely... still..., why'd you call me off?"

The person smiled and laughed. "FIghting against a Paladin with your equipment burned what little you had left out, didn't it?"

Zorlo sighed as he threw the discs from his vest and his glove to the ground. "Anti-magic weapons and Paladins. God damn humans and their shrewd tricks."

The weapons all burst into flames as they vanished completely. "Now I'm defenseless."

Zorlo's employer laughed. "You were now. We're sending in the most advanced Magitechnology we could produce. Consider them part of your payment. They should be arriving nearby shortly."

A bright star flashed across the sky as it slammed into the nearby earth. A crater formed as Zorlo approached and noticed a large case that was utterly unfazed by the atmospheric entry. "Impressive," Zorlo said as he rested his hand on the chest's top and opened it.

"The latest in our technology. Its just as adaptable as your other weaponry and works with the Schrodinger Summoning System."

Zorlo smiled. He quickly removed a green handle and looked at it. Focusing energy into the handle, a green blade of plasma, a concentrated form of lightning energy, formed. "Energy swords that use magic to form the blades," Zorlo said as he swung one and grabbed the other and began to swing it as well. "Very impressive."

Zorlo's employer smiled as the blades were dispelled and the swords turned into data and entered his hands.

Moving quickly, Zorlo removed a rifle and pointed it at a wall, smiling. A powerful bullet burst from the rifle's barrel, blowing a nearby wall into rubble. "A rifle that fires concentrated bolts of water or wind. Impressive again," Zorlo said with a smile as he picked up a smaller box and opened it. "Oh my. A new Funnel System?"

Zorlo's employer nodded and laughed. "Yes, that is the Nu System. Funnels that are stored on your person, much as the other. Unlike your last model, these use less energy and can fire bullets of lightning, wind or water," the employer said as he removed the strap and attached it to his back and around his right shoulder to his chest. MOving quickly, he attached the Nu system wings to the strap, six rectangular shaped objects with prongs at the ends where energy built up and fired. As he attached them to the strap, the six pieces seemed to form a cloak almost, and upon command, they extended to form a single wing before scattering and moving about at speeds like lightning before firing at random targets.

Zorlo whistled as the Nu System returned to its holder and the energy rifle turned into data. "I think these will do great," Zorlo said with a smile.

His employer smiled and nodded. "I hope so."

(*Goes off to update Zorlo's profile with his new weapons*)
