Soldiers of Light ch.3: "Those who fight and run away..."
 

(OOC: Current situation. The group of good guys is standing in front of the fire mealstrom, facing team evil. Yaburu gave a speech, and is about to pretty much obliterate the upper body of Vance, who is standing in front of Kurama. Mime's character just proposed to Armored's character. Yaburu used his special move to erase the cannon from existence, and Drak and Yaburu are about to go at it. And...go.)

(ooc: I proposed to phoenixflame's character and I threw that cannon at yaburu. Now after that correction... go!)

OOC: Am I the only one who worries about Koyuki getting rabies just from hearing that remark? :p

IC: "Did he just...?" Raikotsu blinked, then snickered. The snicker turned into a chortle, and a second later he was laughing merrily, "Human...she is beyond you. Insult a superior being again with your lustful gaze, and I shall dispose of you myself."

(OOC: There are so many dirty jokes that could be made about Sanjuro's proposal, I'm not even going to go there. Maybe.)

Pyros shrugged. "'Whatever floats his boat' I believe is the saying that goes here." It was clear that the woman in question was a dog demon. Regardless, Pyros needed something to chuck at the wind controller to halt his magic. Getting too close would be bad, especially with his company, a vicious looking lot (except for the one in the white kimono). Preferably something heavy. Maybe a rock or something. Then something hit him. (mentally)

Wait...isn't he technically asking her to be his b-(Doh! Bad dog joke!)

“DO NOT BESMIRCH THE LOOK OF LOVE IN MY EYES FOR THAT OF LUST!” A look of comprehension came across his face with a thoughtful sigh, “Ah.... I see, so it is you that is her betrothed. I cannot let such a beauty go to a man who knows not the difference between lust and that of love.”

Drawing his blade slowly from his back as he smiles, “No woman of such exquisite nature could be allowed to stay with such a man.” Pointing his sword at the man in blue he smiles, “I have never killed without money being involved, but today I will slay you in the name of LOVE!” Sanjuro pauses for a moment while in thought, Oh man, that sounded so cool!

(ooc: Oh I’m quite sure that by the time she sees this we’ll all have rabies.)

"Sanjuro, SHUT UP. For the love of the gods, SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH."

Drak was staying focused on the foes immediately ahead of him, primarily Raikotsu. He was lazilly swinging his broadsword about, and trying to figure out two things. The first was how to survive a combat against more skilled foes. The second was how to get out of the whole farce alive.

"Sanjuro, before you even think of talking while using your extremely tiny head, I will cut your fucking tongue out myself. Eyes off the booty, and try to note that these people are trying to kill us. And probably more skilled too."

(OOC:I just wanted to wait a little bit and give people a chance, now that I'm about to head to work I shall post the attack, altered it a little though so as not to make Vance just splatter like a bug.)

Vance quickly moves in front of Kurama, "You are not good enough to do battle with him." He says as he uses a cross arm strike to knock Yaburu's hand off to the side. Something was obviously wrong with that to any observer. It became apparent what as the Yaburu's other fist came bolting out at several times the initial attacks speed, catching Vance off guard. The fist slammed straight into Vance's skull. It was hard to tell what had happened first. If the bones had dissolved or the if mass inside had exploded. Eaither way brain matter was strewn into the air creating a fine misted arc of grey and red mist.

Yaburu, not being one to be slowed by a corpse, quickly initiates a spin kick. It causes Vance's body to shoot over into the whirling flame. It quickly disappears into the vortex. It appears that Vance was a talker, and not much of a fighter. That or this Yaburu character was more then a match for any of them. Eaither way, one man was down.

OOC: Pyros, I can only say that great minds think alike. Secretskull, the big hunk of metal was already caught by Sanjuro, and hurled at one of Team Evil's members.

IC: "Betrothed? I...err...you will DIE for your remarks!" Raikotsu shifted his stance, one leg behind the other, feet at a ninety-degree angle with the back, left foot pointing to the side and the front, right foot pointing directly toward Sanjuro, eighty percent of his weight on his back foot, eyes blazing with fury.

[edit] OOC2: Mintaro, insane props for the cool damage-taking scene.

Kurama calmly watched as Vance's head exploded, and was then sent flying into the fire tornado. He knew that Vance would be alright. The attack hadn't hit his lower chest, and he passed through the fire. He'd be up and moving in a bit. Though probably a little humbled for the experience. Kurama looked at Yaburu.

"Interesting. You're skilled in hand-to-hand, and you have a power that is uncommon in humans. I see why Talkatz brought you into his group. I doubt it took much to bring you in. All he had to tell you was that you could help kill the man who could save humanity."

Kurama took a defensive stance. This stance was more for dodging than blocking. He saw what happened to Vance. He didn't want the man to get close enough to even hit him, much less beat him senseless.

"You are beyond reason, so I won't dissuade you from this. Just don't expect me to go easy on you."

OOC: Mental note: Never leave the computer again, as three pages worth of posts will accumulate leaving you behind every single time.

A few seconds after he knocked on the hull a huge hunk of metal came at him from nowhere. A few seconds after that it was grabbed by someone who had out of the ship. In a burst of inspiration Ishumo ran headlong into the battle. He charged in the direction of Yaburou, but near the end of his charge, made a sharp turn sideways and attempted run his spear through Kurama.

OOC 2: Deleted and reposted for comfort.
