Author: Golem[edit]
~Yami lunges forth, Dark Eggs in hand. A pale guard runs up to kick him from behind, but SwordMaster hits him in the chest with the flat edge of his sword, dropping him to the ground. Upon closer inspection, a vertical line of bold red is visible in the middle of the guard's chest. SwordMaster's view is interrupted by another pale guard with a similar red line on his chest who tries to grab him from behind. SwordMaster jumps up before the guard can get a good grip, and kicks backwards. The guard falls over.~
Akujin: ~ducking under two Dark Eggs while reaching forth to grab Yami by the neck~ My brethren, you made it! Where is the third?
Guard 1: ~getting up~ Remains in Culex.
~The two guards run to Akujin, and SwordMaster grabs the second one by the right arm, trying to slow him down. The second guard heeds SwordMaster no attention, so SwordMaster trips him up from behind. Meanwhile, Aaron slides in from the side, tripping the first guard right into Akujin. Kantii grabs the first guard's right arm and whips him back upright and away from Akujin. Yami dodges Akujin's grabbing hand and grabs it, then flutter kicks off of it, sending Akujin off balance.
In the back room, Chizu approaches Renn.~
Chizu: Are you okay now?
Renn: No, OF COURSE NOT, you LITTLE--
...
.....
My apologies. I should not be rude, nor should I have been rude earlier. I beg you, please just help me find my soul...
Chizu: What?!
Renn: It's in a soda can labelled "Renn."
~Back in the main room, Kantii and Aaron hold back guard 1 while SwordMaster and Ihsay hold back guard 2. Yami gets hit right in the nose with a punch from Akujin, sending him into the unsuspecting guard 1. Everyone loses their grip, and guard 1 rushes over to Akujin. He latches onto Akujin's left arm and transforms it (and himself) into a Cerberus (or Cerebus, or whatever it is @_@) head. No one can act quick enough to stop Akujin from swinging his fierce arm around into SwordMaster and Ihsay, who lose their grip on guard 2. Guard 2 runs up to Akujin's right arm and does the same trick as guard 1.
Elsewhere, with Goren...~
Goren: Where's Space?!
Sigmund: You lost track of him? Heh...
~Sigmund gives Goren a blank stare and falls to the ground, unconscious. Harold stands up from behind Sigmund as Sigmund falls, and a red line like the one in the guards is visible in Harold's chest.~
Harold: You will take me to Culex.
Goren: ~staring at the red line~ My guards were so sloppy as to leave you with a link to Akujin's realm...!!
Alright, but one bad move on your part and you're dead.
Author: AaronGuy[edit]
AaronGuy: Okay, okay, so he's made out of a sewing machine AND has a pair of ravenous beasts for hands. Still no big.
Ishay: Maybe you should quit saying things like that while you're ahead, pal...
~Akujin swings around both his arms, a pillar of fire spewing from each of the Cerberus heads~
Abaddon: Hey hey HEY! Why don't you watch the other materials! We have other bodies to make, you know.
Akujin: Shut your trap, you scaly pest! This is between me and the OGers!
Abaddon: ~growls~ We should have just revived one of his underlings. They would have been easier to keep tabs on...
Arcanist: ...
~Kantii steps forward, flapping his feathered arms rapidly. The pillars of flame are bent back toward Akujin, who is forced against the back wall, as well as the Arcanist and Abaddon. One of the pillars engulfs the frail spellbinder and the familar~
Abaddon: GAH! Watch where you're aiming you lousy... GEEP! MASTER!
Arcanist: ~still alight~
Abaddon: Hang on, Master! ~breathes a large cloud of white flames over the frail body. The fire disperses and the burns heal, but many of the cloths covering the Arcanist's body are burned away. The figure gasps for breath as the smoke clears, the fear of death apparent in a pair of brown eyes~
Yami: Huh. So there's a person under there after all...
Abaddon: Enough! We're out of here. Akujin, I trust you'll be able to handle this. C'mon Master, let's get you changed. ~disappears~
Arcanist: ~glares at Akujin for a moment, then disappears as well~
~Elsewhere~
Goren: Well, this is it. ~motions to a large number of glass coffins~ This is where we keep the bodies that the Arcanist might find some use for.
Harold: And the others?
Goren: That depends. Sometimes they're cremated, but other times... well, don't go to the cafeteria on Chili day, let's just leave it at that. But really, there's dozens of coffins down here, it's going to take you a while to-
~Harold convulses, as a white beam fires out of his chest, followed closely by a smaller red one. The two spiral around each other, before crashing into a coffin on the other side of the room, shattering it. Harold's body collapses to the ground~
Goren: Not good.
Culex: ~stretches, balling his hands into fists~ Agh... it's been too long. But first, to business. BLACK HOLE!
~A large vortex opens in Culex's chest, but instead of sucking things in, it's exhaling wind with great force. A large trail of blood red is expelled from the hole, landing on the ground with a splat, as if it were liquid. The liquid takes on the form of a very weak and decrepid Akujin, thrashing about~
Culex: Even in death you plauge us, Akujin. But in this form, you're nothing with out a body.
~Balling his fist once more, Culex sends one powerful Fist of Orion at the Akujin-link. There's a flash, and a yelp, and then all that's left is a small red smear on the ground~
Goren: NO! WHY did you do that? Akujin is an untappable source of energy! I might have even been able to stop holding bogus tournaments off of his soul energy! ...Maybe..
Culex: ~closes the Black Hole~ Fool. Akujin's soul is a stronger vaccum than my Black Hole. Yes, at first it gives a large amount of power, but as time goes by, your strength fails, until eventually there's nothing left in your body but Akujin. I assume it would do the same to your little power supply... And though you might deserve it, the souls in the machine do not. You'll just have to be taken down the old fashioned way.
Goren: That so? And who's going to be the one that'll defeat me? You?
Culex: Perhaps, but right now, I have to tend to other matters. ~whistles~
Crystals: ~all quickly appear around Culex, lifting him up~
Culex: Maybe you should bother some OTHER tournament goers for a change! ~flies off~
Goren: Pff. He'll be back. There's no way he'll be able to get through that barrier I placed between him and the OGers.
~A loud CRUNCH is heard down the hall~
Goren: ~winces~ ...Maybe I SHOULD check on the other Fighters...
Author: Fred[edit]
Goren: If all the competitors are this troublesome, honestly. I must pit them against the tougher opponents. How to deal with Culex is beyond me, but the others should not be a problem. I must exploit rivalries, and avoid those they have triumphed over. Therefore, Sword Master must fight Bat-Ear, and Yami Yoshi shall fight Verde. That should sort the OGers out. But as for Miss Ingrid and Saru, solving their problems might be the solution to dealing with them.
Janitor: Should I clean this all up, then?
Goren: How'd you get down here? Do you have authorization?
Janitor: I've always been here.
Goren: Do you think I don't know my own... wait, sorry, you cleaned up the other machine explosion. Sort this mess out, and don't listen in anymore.
Janitor: Righto.
(Goren uses a stereotyped tube-ish elevator to go his private quarters) Goren: I need a talk with you, Tenorvista.
TD: Things not going well? I'll have you know, we don't appreciate failures.
Goren: Akujin continues to be tied to this realm.
TD: You... your tournaments are an excellent investment, but all I needed from you is to contain him and bring him to me.
Goren: I know of your true nature.
TD: Yes, as comparitively pitiful as I am now, you not only cower before me, but praise me for what I will become.
Goren: What you can become.
(TD blinks and an incredible surge of pain goes through every neuron in Goren's body. It writhes in mid-air, and then drops to the ground. It then mends itself.)
TD: You should know fully well the nature of what I am willing to accept from you as well, especially in your current position. What is your current proposition?
Goren: I recently torchered an agent of the-
TD: Please, I know. All about everyone in that room. I watch. It's funny how you can place a camera anywhere. Though, now X10 ads are even more annoying, since I have what they're selling.
Goren: The pain is awful, but your blackmail is your dealiest poison. I need a certain few competitors... taken care of.
TD: Predictable. Name them.
(Also elsewhere, in the broom closet)
Fred: I'm coming into it!
Lithium: Quiet, ye KFC knave, I'd'a been caught back there for using two apostraphes in one word, but I adverted the situation.
Fred: Did you smile for the camera?
Lithium: Gasp I should have taken it out with the laundry!
Fred: Now, now, dinner is far off. But your cover is blown into last week and next week at the same time. Enzyme rhymes.
Lithium: Does the information mean bagels to you or should I serve up another great shave?
Fred: Only Akujin can prevent forest frequent fliers.
Lithium: Gravedigger news indeed.
Fred: The only important thing is that operation Wolf and operation Boot-up screening fence were sucessful.
Lithium: Yes, the Ape-like one was found like a checkerboard on the Nile Delta. Post you keep, I will.
(As they part through different angles doing a 180 backflip, Miss Ingrid and Saru move through the same tunnel, knocking over Lithium, and rushing to attempt a contact with Verde, with no avail. The three men in dark suits follow them slowly.)
(Also meanwhile, with Akujin)
Akujin: Argh!
Hand one: We feel it, brother! He is gone!
Yami: Good, 'cause I don't know where he was going to attach.
(Culex breaks in, obliterating the entire ceiling)
Akujin: You! You were the murderer!
Culex: You don't know how to die, do you? Fist of Orion! (He launches it at Akujin, who is hit head on and phases in and out of reality)
Akujin: This reminds me of something... I have not been to the other realm for a while. While the eye holds me to here in a more limited, physical state, it also makes it possible for me to be constucted here indefinetely. In this poor excuse of a body, I will deconstruct quickly. Therefore, I must give you this parting gift, before saying adieu.
AaronGuy: What, how did none of us attack him while we said all that.
Yami Yoshi: Don't tell me we don't do it all the time, see?
Akujin: X Fenrir's final frigid unbeing! Did I say X? Ok, got it right. Yeah, reading back two sentances really helps me be sure. I'll just drop it off and get out of your hair. (teleports to an unknown location, dropping off a huge explosion that implodes into an incredibly cold, unforgiving black hole)
Yami Yoshi: Maybe you're right, those are choice times to kick his butt. But hey, we're learning.
(In the bottom lab...)
GORE: Sooooull....
(OoC: Oh yeah, Chizu was doing something. Get on it if you'd like.)
Author: Golem[edit]
~In the back room, Chizu hears the commotion and runs out to see what's happening. However, as she gets closer to the main room, she can't stop herself from being pulled in by the black hole. Renn grabs her and pulls her back into the room, away from the black hole's gravity.~
Chizu: Looks like we're stuck here...
Renn: ~rolls his eyes~ This room can't endless. Come on, let's find my soul and get out of here through the other end of this room.
Chizu: What if there is no other exit? Shouldn't we check first?
~The black hole starts lightening, then it expands rapidly. Renn and Chizu book it through the room.~
Renn: Well, there goes my soul!
Author: GORE-ILLA[edit]
*Yami Yoshi, AaronGuy, Culex, Ihsay and SwordMaster are sucked through the black hole and wind up in some empty dark space.*
Ishay: ...What is this?
Culex: Why does this place seem familiar?
*The Akujin Eye appears in the center of the mysterios void and form into a shadowy outline of Akujin's body.*
Akujin: Gweh heh heh... welcome to my realm. In here, I live through my Eye and have all kinds of unstoppableness.
SwordMaster: Alright! Let's put an end to this so we can get on with this damn torunament!
*Five arms shoot out from the eye, restraining each OGer and zapping the power.*
Akujin: With your life forces I will return to the living world stronger then ever! Or something. I think I even confused myself.
AaronGuy: What can we do?
*Culex is able to tear free from his bonds and lunges straight for the Akujin Eye, immediately blasting flames from his right hand.*
Culex: Flames of Artemis!
*However, the flames are blocked by... Akujin. It seems that Akujin pured his power into creating a replica of his original body, which immediately lunges towards Culex. Culex attempted a Fist of Orion, but it is also blocked by the Akujin Doppleganger.*
Akujin Doppleganger: Ha! Surely you are a more foolish of fools among other foolish folmeisters. In this realm, I have access to my full power. Peviously I was only defeated when you came through with skin on your teeth, but this time my teeth... have more... skin, I don't really know how it goes, but hey!
Culex: Wait... if you're focusing all your power into this almost exact replica, surely less power is channeled into your freakish floating arms! Aaron, the others whose names I can't bother to remember! Break free!
*Aaron and the other guys whose names I also forgot followed Culex's suggestion in order to destroy the bonds and rush to Culex's aid. The Akujin Eye is forced to pump even more power into the Akujin Doppleganger, who gains the advantage over his foes once more.*
Yami Yoshi: Now- Ultra Jump Play!
*Yami Yoshi, SwordMaster, AaronGuy and Ishay leap into the air and bounce off of the Akujin Doppleganger's head (earning each of them 200 points) to propel them towards the Akujin Eye while Culex holds the Doppleganger back. Yami's group is sailing towards the Akujin Eye now.*
SwordMaster: Almost there... hey cool, a soda can!
*SwordMaster reaches over and grabs a soda can labeled "RENN". Suddenly, four beams of electricity shoot out at each OGer and freezes them.*
Akujin Eye: Ha! You think I to be completely defenseless? Now that you're frozen, I'll devour each soul one by one. I'll start with... Mister Yoshi here.
*The electric beam tows in Yami Yoshi until the Akujin Eye embeds itself in his forehead, draining hs very soul. Akujin then releases Yami Yoshi's body to float about helplessly. The others shout out generic "OMG HE DEAD" cries.*
Akujin Eye: Gweh heh heh... Now his life force is mine, and I may be reformed again! The universe is mine! Oh, but of course I still need to sap the rest of your life force- to use as 1-Ups, you might say.
*The Akujin Eye begins to drag in Ishay.*
Yami Yoshi: (strange voice) But you forgot one thing, Akujin!
Akujin Eye: Que? You're dead!
Yami Yoshi: (strange voice) You forgot that another soul dwelled in this body- the soul of the ancient Pharaoh Yami Yoshi!
Akujin Eye: IMMOBOLIZ-
Pharaoh: Mummification Egg!
*Pharoah flings a bandaged egg at the Akujin Eye, whih unravels and wraps around the giant eye, temporary blinding it. The Eye quickly incinerates the bandages, only to find that Pharaoh is nowhere to be seen.*
Akujin Eye: Where... where are you?!
*The Akujin Eye swivels about in every direction, but cannot see Pharaoh anywhere in the realm.*
Pharaoh: Dark Egg!
*The Akujin Eye spins around to face the direction of the voice- only to have a Dark Egg stuffed into its face. The Eye shatters in half, and Akujin's soul evaporates. Pharaoh then appears out of thin air.*
Ishay: ...What just happened?
Pharaoh: I used my ancient art of invisibility. Akujin didn't know I was still alive within Yami and I'm sure he didn't know about half of my magical arts. But it's been a while since I've used it... I'll have to hand control back to Yami.
*Yami Yoshi's soul flies into the body and he returns to normal.*
Yami Yoshi: YAAAAAAAAHHH!!!
*Yami Yoshi looks around and notices that he's back in his own body.*
Yami Yoshi: Cool, I'm alive!
Culex: Yes, but we're stuck in another mysterious dimension with no way home and no idea what kind of creatures live here. Even with Akujin gone, I'm sensing some seriously high dark energy.
*Suddenly, a portal leading back to the dormitory area of Goren's mansion opens up convieniantly in front of the OGers.*
SwordMaster: There's your answer!
Culex: ...Are you sure we can trust this?
*The other OGers ignore Culex as they leap into the portal before Culex sighs and follows. When everyone is gone, the mysterious Dark Cloak (not to be confused with the three Black Cloaks or the trenchcoated Sigmund) appears. With a wave of his hand, the portal seals shut. The Dark Cloak then hovers towards the shattered Akujin Eye and picks it up mentally.*
Dark Cloak: Kee kee kee... one step closer. Good job, OGers.
*The Dark Cloak vanishes into the depths of the mysterious Dimension-X.*
*Back in the real world, the OGers realize the time of night.*
Yami Yoshi: Well, time to set up assassin traps and then get to sleep! (yawns and leaves to dormitory)
AaronGuy: Hey, Culex, what are you gonna do now that you're disqualified?
Culex: Well I guess I'll cheer you on from the sidelines. Goren's kinda afraid of me, so I think he'll leave me alone or just set up inefficient traps. And if any of you get disqualified, I'll make sure I free you guys before Goren "disappears" you, whatever that means.
Ishay: That's good to hear. I guess I'll go hang up my saddle for the night.
SwordMaster: ...
Ishay: He fell asleep the floor. (kicks)
SwordMaster: (shakes into conciousness) Huh- wha? I'm... meditating on my... upcoming battles.
Ishay: No, you're sleeping on the floor.
SwordMaster: You... you... (falls asleep)
Ishay: ...Now you're sleeping standing up. Whatever, I'm outta here.
*SwordMaster's alone in the hall when Chizu walks up with Renn.*
Chizu: Sorry about your soul...
Renn: That's alright.
*SwordMaster is awaken by their talking and groggily his instincts kick in. He reaches for his sword to swing around threateningly, but instead he pulls out the soda can he found earlier.*
Renn: My soul! (struggles with SwordMaster, who bites his hand) Ow!
Chizu: SwordMaster, wake up!
SwordMaster: Hey- wha. Oh. You want this? Oh... okay. Here. (leaves to dormitory)
Renn: I'm glad this suplot's over with. (leaves to release soul)
Chizu: Now for a good night's sleep! (leaves to dormitory as well. Lights in hallwat go out)
Computer: Good night, Princess Peach.
*The next morning, everyone arrives in time for the tournament. A holographic Goren speaks to the fighters.*
Goren: Now for the second round of Goren's Ultimate Fighting League! Today we'll teach you the value of teamwork! Remember yesterday, when you and a partner worked together to get through the maze? I'd like you to face your partner. You are now looking at your opponant. This round will take place in the zero-g ring, one fight at a time. If you were wise enough not to pair up with a partner, you automatically advance to the next round. Also, from now on the tournament will undergo a tree setting; in other words, the winners of this round's first and second battles will face each other in the next round. Yamina will announce the matches. That will be all.
*Goren's holograph fades out. SwordMaster and Chizu look at each other in shock.*
Yamina: First up, is...
Author: Golem[edit]
Yamina: AaronGuy, Kantii, Yami Yoshi, and Ihsay!
Ihsay: What?!
AaronGuy: We all went through the gate on the same two cubes, thanks to Saru.
Yamina: Follow me to the arena.
~Soon, in the zero-g ring...~
Yami Yoshi: So, I guess I'll be the one to win?
Kantii: Why not Lord Kantii?
Yami Yoshi: Because... I'm the guy... with experience!
Kantii: I doubt you have more than me!
Ihsay: Hold up guys. I have to win so that I can investigate the mansion further in order to piece together more information about my brother.
~A small dart flies by Ihsay's head. She turns around to see a pale Snoop and Spearshift floating by the wall of the arena. They both pull down nearby levers and hundreds of darts fly out of the wall, and continue firing for a few seconds.~
Yami: AaronGuy, throw me into the arrows!
~With no time to waste, AaronGuy grabs Yami by the torso and hurls him forward, towards the arrows. Yami forms a translucent egg around him, and the arrows bounce harmlessly off. AaronGuy, Kantii, and Ihsay stay close to where AaronGuy was, since Yami's move provides a small area of protection in his wake (the arrows that do not bounce off of him create the imaginary wall to this area). Once through the storm, Yami finds himself close to Snoop and Spearshift. His shell crumbles and he prepares to take on the two pale contestants as Snoop pounds another button.
Back with the other three in the arena, a log comes swinging down on ropes from the ceiling right behind the last set of arrows, coming straight at AaronGuy, Kantii, and Ihsay. They duck under the log, but Ihsay loses her balance and ducks too far down, and her right arm gets hit with an arrow in the last line of arrows.~
AaronGuy: You okay?
Ihsay: I can't feel my arm! ~flails arms for a few seconds before ceasing movement~ And now, I'm paralyzed...
~Kantii uses his wings to fling himself to Yami, who faces the wall. AaronGuy looks to Yami, then to Ihsay, then back to the Yami as he swims towards him. The two pale contestants are gone.~
Kantii: Where did they go?
Yami: ~turns around to face Kantii and AaronGuy~ They just disappeared.
Kantii: What were you looking at on the wall?
Yami: ~turns around again~ The holes where the arrows come out--~is hit aside by Kantii just as another log swings by~ Yipe!
~The log swings back towards Yami, who throws a Dark Egg at it. The egg bounces off of the log towards Kantii, who deflects its explosion with his feathered arms. Yami just barely manages to duck out of the way, but in doing so, is hit with a shower of sharp Dark Egg shrapnel. Yami defends with another egg shield, but not before being struck with a few painful pieces of egg.
AaronGuy stays by Ihsay to guard her. He looks around for booby traps, unaware that vines grow forth from Ihsay's nostrils. They quickly wrap around AaronGuy and bind him, and no matter how much he struggles, he cannot get free.
Yami Yoshi and Kantii see this, and they rush over to AaronGuy's position. Yami is too close to Kantii, and his flapping wings throw Yami off. Kantii readies his right wing into a razor sharp edge, and then slices it at Aaron's left arm, aiming to slice off Ihsay's nostril vines. He slices off the vines but, with the back swing of his wing, also strikes the off-balance Yami Yoshi up the stomach. Slight bleeding starts in a few places along Yami's stomach. Where the nostril vines are cut, they prick AaronGuy before unwrapping around him, letting him free but paralyzed. They both stretch out towards Kantii, who dodges. Yami puts up his egg shield yet again, but the vines prick his egg shield. He is unharmed but cannot exit his egg shield.
Kantii looks around. Everyone is unable to fight.~
Ref: Lord Kantii is the winner!
Author: Fred[edit]
(As Kantii watches, six enormous guards come out and grab each of the losing competitors, two to each. Despite Kantii's protests, they were grabbed, and were being taken away. Kantii started yelling and flapping his arms and slashing at the huge men, but it was futile. He then slashed at their legs, until he was pulled off by three more.)
SwordMaster: No! Crap!
Chizu: Does that mean... we fight?
SwordMaster: Not yet, I think Bat-Ear and Verde go at it. This is probably the most horrid thing to happen in the tournament yet.
(In the (reasonably small) lab, underground, Goren recieves the three. The arrow's chemicals have dissapated, and the nostril hairs have died, however, it leaves Yami, AaronGuy, and Ishay in a semi-sleeplike, wishy-washy state, Yami actually pretty much fine, (because his egg deflected it) but are held by the zombie-ish Snoop and SpearShift, along with being caged and tied up.)
Goren: I knew it was worth the time and effort. Now, it's time for you to meet my machine. You've been seaching for this for a while, I presume? And everything you've seen in the tournament revolves around this.
Yami: So... GORE?
Goren: Yes, I was forced to dispose of him first, a tough opponent, but nothing without his teammates. With this machine, this planet will become the captial of the universe!
Yami: You know, you really sound like a lot of other evil villains, except you have, um, uh,...
Goren: Yes? Reason? Pathos? Chest hair?
Yami: Let's say chest hair. But you're not like Evil or Akujin or Sephinty (why are all these battles more difficult than his?) who want to destroy everything, so what gives? Lupus just wanted cheesecake and to be generally evil, he's not exactly like you either.
Goren: I've already said too much. AaronGuy? You're first.
AaronGuy: Nrrf. Ten more minutes, maw.
Goren: Now, for you to become like all the other souls. Hopeless and without... hope. Crap. Um, yeah, you'll have no meaning to anyone anymore, so... crap, who writes this? Regardless, TIME FOR YOUR PUNY EXISTANCES TO END. EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE IS FOR NAUGHT! YOU HAVE NO ABILITY TO FIX YOUR CRIMES, AND I WILL ENJOY SEEING YOU GONE, LIKE ALL THE OTHERS!
Ishay: You son... of a... (censoring crew: Let's try, snitch! Not too bad a word!) it will not be for nothing! MY BROTHER SHALL BE SAFE, I PROMISED HIM IT AND IT'S NOT SOMETHING I AM GOING TO LET GO AS A LIE! (Ishay, in the quickest and most potent awaking of fury ever seen since Mr.T. wins that bout on that one episode of The A-Team, Ishay breaks through her ropes so hard that the tiny pieces fly like shrapnel, undoing the other's ropes, and breaking open the cage. The roof of the cage falls towards her, but she kicks it in midair so that it flies straight for Goren. He attempts to knock it out of the air, but the spin on it cuts his arms. He manages to get around it, and charges Ishay, who spin kicks to the face left and then back right, with a frightening elbow to the jaw sending him packing into the wall. Goren runs for the machine, and transforms into a hybrid of himself and Ishoy. He then jump kicks her into a fine table, smashing it to pieces. They continue to battle, as AaronGuy falls asleep, and Yami Yoshi fights off Snoop and SpearShift.)
Yami Yoshi: People need to die, sometimes.
(Snoop fires 60 shots from double MAC-10s at YY, who rolls around frantically as an egg. YY rolls up SpearShift's new, enhanced spear, and clobbers his face into the wall. He breaks out of his egg, jumps, and catches Snoop by the throat with his two feet. Snoop pulls his switchblade out quickly, but YY swings down, swings up, and launches an egg at his face, putting him in a neat pile in the corner, beside the machine. Suddenly, the table piece smacks him upside the head, and SpearShift yelling and running at him yelling, with his spear and swinging a piece of the bars that the cage was comprised of didn't help matters. The unaware, zombie SpearShift tripped over the snoring AaronGuy in his slumber, flying into the air, overshooting YY, and landing into a firm kick from Ishay. Same corner pile deal as with Snoop, actually. YY slowly got up, as they both faced Goren)
YY: Heh, two yoshis against one, this'll be easy.
Goren: That so? Want to know what I am? I am Ishoy.
YY: You... monster!
Ishay: You're using his soul, to-
Goren: Enough. Ishoy is more of a part of me than you understand. He won the tournament last year, even beat me. I offered him the prizes, but then I showed him this.
Ishay: What?
Goren: It was part of an experiment on using souls in a fusion capable of strengthening beings. Why do I have the body of an ape? Why can I transform? It is because my real name is Thedorik Loki. I was a scientist, one with many unpopular beliefs. I saw a new future, when I saw the energy leaving from dead bodies. I attuned my goggles to not only see it with the dead, but within the living, too. I realized that scrounging up the dead worked, but better yet were stronger souls, that could be enticed. I found a way to combine with souls, to take on their strengths and lose their flaws. I eventually chose the ape body, in order to intimidate, and perplex my opponents, also expressly to confuse GORE. After showing Ishoy the machine, he grew more curious. He wanted to be a part of this. The tournament taught him, the hard way, that money and feelings were useless, and power was all that determined anything. He learned much about the OGers, and Akujin. He learned about the dangers. He decided to join me.
YY: Are you done yet? I'm going to end up like AaronGuy, if this-
Ishay: I cannot believe it.
Goren: Okay, so he took a little prodding and coaxing, but he was generally for it. This is what he has contributed towards the earth's uprising. What are you contributing?
Ishay: If he can hear me, I'd like him to know that he's done something entirely foolish, and that he's become part of something wrong.
Goren: Wrong, is it? I'm doing what I think is right. Doesn't that make it so?
Ishay: Is it? Vetoing the say of all these people, not waiting until they die, cruelly treating all those who get in the way, methodically planning the same thing over and over in an ambitious dream to stop everything except you?
Goren: It makes us safe.
YY: It makes us our own worst enemy. Does that work? I just wanted to say something with feeling, that was cool, but I have a feeling I am suffering from clichéism.
Goren: Yes, you totally ruined it. Then again, sacrifices must be made. You two, for example, just need some reajustment.
Ishay: If that's Ishoy saying stuff like that, you've infected him too, and you make me sick.
(Ishay launches at Goren repeatedly, while he sidesteps it, along with YY's constant barrage of eggs. Goren catches her by the tail and throws her at Yami, who catches her. Goren rushes towards them, gernade-like egg in hand (sans pin), but YY throws Ishay at him in a kick and a large-scale explosion occurs. The test tubes and bookshelves rumble and fall over even more, and the faucets to their left break, leaking water everywhere. The ceiling also rains down water.)
Goren: Urgh. How lucky, this is where your luck fails you.
(Goren touches the machine and becomes a giant grasshopper, with a huge battery attached to it's back. It uses it's attenae to shoot electricity through the water, shocking Ishay, but missing the fleet-footed YY. The new Goren is quite large, so YY lets loose a dark omelette, breaking through it's flesh in many points. Goren transforms into a giant gorilla, using GORE's soul.)
Goren: Crush... Yami... Yoshi...
(Yami Yoshi repeats his actions, but Goren continues to hang onto the machine, combining as many souls into his body at once. He grows, and flashes, and continues to grow, as he fires projectiles made of ice, lazers, plastic, bone, fire, and pure energy at YY. YY, throwing multitudes of eggs while dodging, finally gives in, and falls to the ground, unconsious. The Pharoh attempts to move him, but all he can manage is a nigh-on impenetrable dark-egg shield.)
Goren: BWWERHAHA! There is no opposition for me!
(Suddenly, GORE-ILLA grabs his leg and tears it off, beating him with it. GORE uses his wrist to jet out flames, setting the enormous creature on fire. Goren's souls all move back into the machine as he becomes his oldest self - a thin, stalky, malnutritioned weakling scientist named Thedorik Loki. GORE grabs him by the throat, and holds him up high. Another man steps from the shadows. It is...)
Lithium Debater: A fine Greenwich to ye, patchmaker.
Thedorik: Not one of you! (gasps) You're the janitor!
Lithium: Great to have you here tonight for our really big shoe. GORE here, see, likes jammin on his nighthawk downs, you see, but we couldn't have that.
Thedorik: Hah! As soon as you destroy me, I will be made anew- none but I can work the machine, either! That's the only thing keeping me safe from my own master.
Lithium: Tell him something the audience doesn't know!
(Another steps from the shadows)
Fred: Funny you mention it, BUT NOT ARCHIE COMICS.
Lithium: Looks like you... PAY THE PRICE! That is, if applause levels sell for this cash, then you pass the JUST VISITING square. I will servey the souls, finding out their wants and needs (including if they need changing) and then I'll send em the big new yorker.
Fred: That's newspeak, therefore witchcraft! Obliterate your soul, we will.
Thedorik: But... why? Then all the souls go free! You could have power!
Lithium: That's what chex mix wants you to think. We need destruction of your master.
Fred: He is the creator. OF THE MATRIX BIZOUNCE!
Thedorik: Before I go, I'd like you to know that I have another invention, that he has. My original plan was to take him too, and with Akujin, it would have been possible. It's a virtual world, (like monster rancher) and it's not pretty. You'll meet me there, again. And perhaps at the end.
Lithium: You're only a day AAAAAAWAYYYY! (Places Mr. Loki's body inside the soul incinerator, giving off the energy, but losing the imprint of being)
Fred: Now that's science.
Pharoh: Much has happened here, and laying low is our only option.
Lithium: Enterprise, hit it! As in, the soul releaser greaser!
Fred: That happens automatically. In Denver. (it does indeed.)

OOC: ^ Best post ever?
...I'm not quite sure I read into everything correctly, though. BTW, Ihsay = h before s.
Lithium: To GORE-ILLA goes the second place prize.
~A soul flies into GORE, shocking him and knocking him to the floor. He gets up, shaking his head.~
GORE: If you plan to take on Loki's master, we should join forces!
Fred: Cheeky monkey. See you not our desires?
GORE: ...Nighthawk downs?
~Pharoah Yami Yoshi has ducked behind a counter with AaronGuy and Ihsay.~
Ihsay: Any clue what those two guys are up to? Anything more specific than messing up the operations of Loki's master?
AaronGuy: We're just as much in the dark as you are.
Pharoah: I can say that the soul entering GORE-ILLA was Dark GORE-ILLA. Perhaps something to do with not letting GORE's soul free as well, mm?
AaronGuy: ...Who?
~Down in the soda can hall, where Arcanist and Abbadon look through the vast amount of soda cans, a guard runs in, panting...~
Guard: Abbadon! Goren went mad and, long story short, all of his souls are lost!
Arcanist: !!!
Guard: Yeah! Some caveman-looking weirdo with an accent from Waffles and some guy named after an element incinerated Goren (his soul too), and now they're aiming to take you over!
Abbadon: Where are your fellow guards? Dead?
Guard: Yeah!
Abbadon: Is he telling the truth, master?
~Arcanist nods. Then Abbadon seems to listen to Arcanist for a few seconds.~
Abbadon: It is too late to get Goren's souls back. Lock down every part of the castle and fortify the outside of the room the Wafflian is in.
~The guard runs away to carry out his orders.~
Abbadon: Shall we contact Goren in the virtual world after gathering your greatest creations to combat the new threat?
Arcanist: ..........
Abbadon: As you wish, master.

Back in the Zero-G Ring…
~SHNK~
Verde: ARGH!!
~Bat-Ear shoves his rubber McDonald’s dagger into Verde’s left shoulder pinning him against the floor. Bat-Ear floats up to the ceiling and whips off his cloak revealing eight sword scabbards on his belt.~
Sword Master: Here it comes…
Bat-Ear: Hachiryu! Eight Sword Style!
~Bat-Ear unsheathes all eight of his swords: two with his hands, two with his feet, two with his ears, one with his mouth, and one with his nose.~
Bat-Ear: Hachiryu Meteor!
~Orange flames surround Bat-Ear as he dives towards Verde at a supersonic speed.~
Verde: Exploding Stars!
~Verde hurls several shurikens at Bat-Ear, but they melt upon contact with the Bat-Ear’s flames. Verde realizes the futility of resistance and reaches for the rubber dagger embedded into his shoulder. Too late.~
~BOOOOM~
~Bat-Ear’s meteoric collision results in a massive fiery explosion. The smoke and dust clear, and the audience gasps as Verde’s crucified carcass comes into view. Red droplets of blood float freely in the zero-gravity space.~
Bat-Ear: A sword through your right hand and a sword through your left hand; a sword through your right foot and a sword through your left foot; a sword through your left ear and a sword through your right ear; a sword through your right shoulder…and a rubber McDonald’s dagger through your left shoulder…my final sword deserves a place in your throat, but your pathetic life will only desecrate my beautiful blade...
Verde: ~moans and coughs up blood~
Ref: Bat-Ear Mihawk is the winner!
~Bat-Ear removes the seven swords and the rubber dagger from Verde’s bloody body, sheathes them into the scabbards on his belt, grabs his cloak, and exits the ring.~
Ref: Hmm…the guards are late…wonder what’s taking them so long?
Author: GORE-ILLA[edit]
Ref: ...Aw, whatever. They're probabbly on coffee break, the janitor can clean up the mess. SwordMaster and Chizu, you're up. ...Wait, where the funky fresh is the janitor?
*SwordMaster and Chizu enter the ring hestitantly.*
Ref: (after scooping out Verde's remains) Now fight!
SwordMaster: So...
Chizu: Don't worry- I have a plan!
SwordMaster: Really???
Chizu: (steps out of the ring) I forfeit!
SwordMaster: What?! NO!
*Chizu willingly lets two of the referees- Introbulusn and Fusionn- take her away.*
SwordMaster: Wait! Culex said he'd make sure none of us gte taken away- he already saved Yami and the others!
*SwordMaster looks up and sees Culex has fallen asleep in the stands.*
SwordMaster: Dammit!
Author: AaronGuy[edit]
Verde: ~continues coughing blood as a ref drags him away~ No... I can't fail... everyone is counting on me...
Ref: Sheesh, you fighters are heavy... ~pulling Verde along by a foot~ No wonder we get the brute force to throw you guys into the soul machine... ~bumps into someone~ Oh, pardon me-
Ingrid: ~uppercuts him~
Ref: Up and over I go! ~flips across the hall before faceplanting ten feet away~
Ingrid: ~kneels down beside Verde~ General...
Verde: ~looks up~ You... You're... Ingrid, yes?
Ingrid: ~nods~ Hold still, I will apply medical treatment. ~holds up a small first aid kit~
Verde: Very well... So, I understand you've been looking for me. ~winces slightly as Ingrid cleans the wounds~
Ingrid: It is a matter of national concern.
Verde: But you're with Team Rocket... right?
Ingrid: Negative. I was expelled by my creator two days after activation.
Verde: Creator... Activation... You're a RocketDroid?!
Ingrid: ~nods~ I was a prototype.
Verde: ~To himself~ It's always the prototypes... So, what went wrong?
Ingrid: My systems are corrupted. I do not know exactly what is wrong.
Verde: Well, you seem to be able to hold your own in combat, so it can't be that...
Ingrid: What I do know is, I am inclined to assist you in your mission.
Verde: ~smiles~ Thank you, Miss Ingrid. Perhaps we will be able to persuade the OGers as well...
Ingrid: ~nods, standing up~ Your wounds are treated.
Verde: ~bandaged in several places~ Mf. Thanks...
Ingrid: ~looks down the hall as three others advance~
Fusionn: You there, Miss Ingrid! Get out to the ring, your fight is next. We'll bring this one to the so-I mean infimiary.
Ingrid: ~stands infront of Verde~ Negative. You shall not move him.
Introblusn: Look lady, it's our job. We've already got our hands full here. ~holds up Chizu~
Ingrid: You will have to get through me if you desire to reach General Verde.
Fusionn: Fine! ~lets go of Chizu~
Introblusn: Works for me! ~ditto~ ~both charge Ingrid~
Chizu: ~blinks~
~Meanwhile, in the winner's circle~
Kantii: You know, where I come from, we have a word called 'overkill'.
Mirawk: Hmph. He seemed like a worthy challenge, but I suppose my first judgement was off. At least I earned my victory, unlike yourself.
Kantii: KRRRR-
Swordmaster: Let it go, Kantii... ~sighs~ ~walks into the circle~
Mirawk: Since you turkeys seem to be fearing the Thanksgiving of your demise, I'll just go over there and gloat. ~walks away~
Kantii: Wow, that guy is a jerk.
Swordmaster: I know...
Kantii: ...You're totally going to have to fight him.
Swordmaster: ~groans~ I KNOW....

~The third referee (the one uppercut by Ingrid), a black and winged Yoshi, stands up, brushes himself off, and adjusts his golden nameplate which reads “Bsdn”.~
Bsdn: All right, you robotic bitch! You’ll find out firsthand what happens to people who mess with Bsdn!
Verde: …wait, what did you just say your name was?
Bsdn: Bsdn!
Verde: What?
Bsdn: Bsdn!
Verde: What?
Bsdn: BSDN! BSDN! BBBSSSDDDNNN!!!
Verde: What?
Ingrid: Name does not compute.
Chizu: ~sweatdrop~ Why am I still here?
Bsdn: Damn you! It took me TEN YEARS before I could finally pronounce my name! Why do I have to go through with this every time I introduce myself?! ~bursts into tears~
Introbulusn: ~sighs and shakes head~ He’s always like this...
Fusionn: But I suppose we’re ones to talk seeing how OUR names are spelt…
Introbulusn: These names were assigned to us by Goren several years ago when we referees first started working for him. I have no idea where he came up with these names, but they all end in “n” for some strange reason: Goren, Introbulusn, Fusionn, Swordmastern, Fredn, Legionn, Thatguyn, Broosern, and uh, that guy…
Fusionn: You said Thatguyn twice.
Introbulusn: No, I was referring to... ~points furtively at Bsdn~
Fusionn: Oh yes, I see…
Introbulusn: Yamina is the only one with a normal sounding name. But if she were male, I suppose it would be “Yamin”…
Chizu: ~thinking~ Hmm…several of those names sound very similar to the OGers’ names...very strange…
Introbulusn: Anyways, enough talk...~to Verde, Ingrid, and Chizu~ Once we dispose of your lives, your souls will be ours for the taking! Ready, Fusionn? Bsdn?
Fusionn: I’m ready.
Introbulusn: ~kicks Bsdn~ Ready?
Bsdn: Ow! Ow! ~stops sobbing~ Fine! I’m ready!
Introbulusn: We, the Ogersn Referees, will knock you all down!
Author: GORE-ILLA[edit]
That Guyn: Saru and Miss Ingrid Number, report to the arena!
*Saru flies up to the ring, but Ingrid is nowhere to be seen.*
That Guyn: Miss Ingrid Number has 5.25 minutes or she's disqualified!
*Elsewhere, in the Soul Machine room, Dark GORE examines his new body.*
Dark GORE: At last, I'm back! I'm in my worse half's body, but at least it looks like he's been working out. Now to call my faithful Team Monkey, and I can catch up on everything that's happened. (sends out beacon) Surely nothing can go wrong now!
*In the Flying Monkey some uncertain distance away, EVIL Scientist Dude is lounging in the tech room when he notices a flashing beacon on the radar.*
EVIL Scientist Dude: (British accent) Hello hello, what's all this then?
*MON-KILL marches into the room.*
MON-KILL: I heard you speaking in that British accent again- what have you discovered?
EVIL Scientist Dude: Someone's sending us a homing beacon- it's an older code, but it checks out. Should we investigate, Boss?
MON-KILL: Sure. By the way, I have a sudden urge to remind you of my irrational hatred of GORE-ILLA.
EVIL Scientist Dude: Um, yeah, whatever, but I don't think we'll be meeting with him anytime soon. Not while Lupus has called off his evil conquests while he's working on... That.
MON-KILL: Enough flashbacking and foreshadowing! I'll assemble the team, and we should be there in a minute if our Plot-Driven Engines work right.
*They work right. But back to the room in which Pharaoh, AaronGuy and Ihsay are hiding behind a counter.*
Pharaoh: Dark GORE was GORE-ILLA's evil half, but he died when he sacrificed himself for GORE-ILLA. Since GORE needed to absorb the essence of his being, Dark GORE's soul went not to Heaven nor Hell nor Purgatory but some dark void of eternal silence. I don't know how he came back, but if he's here and using GORE's essence, then I fear GORE's soul is now trapped in the void of blackness.
AaronGuy: Of course! It makes total sense!
Pharaoh: Really? I just made that up.
Dark GORE: Did someone say my name?
*Pharoah, Ihsay and AaronGuy look up and see Dark GORE's angry face peering over the counter. They quickly hop to the side as Dark GORE uproots the counter and flings it against the wall, filling the room with woody sharpnel.*
Dark GORE: You damned OGers! My good friend Light GORE isn't here for me to beat around, so I'll have to make due with you!
Ihsay: But you killed yourself for him! Shouldn't you be reformed?
Dark GORE: Beh! A lapse in judgement. I don't know what came over me. Besides, it's not like that mangy monkey tried to free me from that void anyway. It's a dark and lonely place in there... and I'm not going back!
AaronGuy: Wait, how'd your soul get pulled here anyway?
Anarcist: ...
Abbadon: The Anarcist himself summoned you. Now let's meet with some more... friends of yours.
*Abbadon snaps his fingers, and a group of corpse puppets enter.*
Yami: This... this isn't too bad.
*The ceiling bursts open, and a ladder pops through. A gorilla and a team of oddballs clamber down.*
MON-KILL: Team Monkey, assemble!

Bsdn: Molten Egg!
~Bsdn materializes a glowing orange Yoshi Egg in his hand and hurls it at Verde.~
Verde: Exploding Kunai!
~Verde hurls a knife at the Molten Egg and both projectiles explode midair. Ingrid leaps onto Bsdn’s saddle and grabs onto both of his wings causing both of them to plummet several feet to the ground below. Ingrid dismounts at the last second and Bsdn crashes headfirst into the stone floor.~
Fusionn: Elemental Beam!
~Fusionn aims his index finger towards Ingrid and fires a psychedelic beam at her. Ingrid winds up her fist and punches the Elemental Beam head-on causing the laser to dissipate midair.~
Fusionn: What?! Impossible! GO SUPER FUSION MODE!!
~After several constipated-sounding grunts, a golden aura surrounds Fusionn and his hair magically becomes yellow, tall, and spiky.~
Super Fusionn: RURRGGHH!! FUSIONN MAD!! FUSIONN CRUSH!!
~Super Fusionn throws a clumsy punch at Ingrid who ducks as an enormous golden fist swishes the air above her and reduces the wooden wall behind her to splinters.~
Super Fusionn: RURGH! ARM STUCK!
~As Super Fusionn struggles to remove his arm from the wall, Ingrid smiles and aims a kick at his family jewels.~
~CRUNCH~
Super Fusionn: !!!
Chizu: O_o;
Introbulusn: o_O;
Verde: ~sweatdrop~ …“crunch”?
Ingrid: I know…that felt…weird…
Super Fusionn: RURRRGGGHHH!!! IT’LL TAKE HOURS TO STAPLE A NEW ONE BACK ON!!! FUSIONN PISSED!!! GO SUPER ÜBER OMEGA HYPER ULTIMA ATOMIC FUSIONN MODE!!!
Author: OtakuBell[edit]
super Fusionn: but Fusion staples his wang back first. *takes out an air tank and a staple gun (out of no where) and starts stapling* aaaah much better now fusion smash arrrrrrgh!!
