Session 67: Earth's Destruction?


[Status`] Time Chart: 2 hours later
[Status`] Location: Somewhere in the Wastelands
[Status`] GM: The shuttle, after experiencing difficulties, was landed somewhere in the desert.
[Gorgon] NRP: *whichs looks like CAnada*
[Status`] GM: The group attempts to repair the ship
[Status`] NRP: *kills Sera*
* Dominator ... attempts to repair the ship
[Status`] No, no, that wire doesn't go THERE.
* Gorgon is bent over working on the engine
*** Diamondback is now known as Crackshot
* Iceheart remains sitting in one of the seats of the shuttle
* Crackshot cracks his knuckles
* Siawase works on repairing the ship.
[Crackshot] It does now...
[Dominator] You know, it would be helpul if you were designed with hands, Status...
* Crackshot puts the wire where Status told him not to put it and gets a nasty shock
[Status`] ---hey, you're going to listen to that NEW guy?
[Crackshot] GAAH!
[Dominator] Careful, Crackshot! You'll short out the whole ship... and yourself
* Crackshot stumbles back and falls
[Siawase] You lucky that Siawase is here...
[Status`] ...where is Siawase?
[Crackshot] Whoo, Reploids weren't made to take electricity...
* Dominator puts the wire in the right spot
* Gorgon is startled and bangs his head against a pipe
[Gorgon] OUCH! Stupid piece of...
* Crackshot gets up and shakes his head
* Wiendigo` hovers near Iceheart inside the shuttle
[Crackshot] Oh, sure, you get it on the first try.
[Dominator] ... Let's just get this thing up and running quickly
[Status`] We need to repair the hydro-ulator.
[Gorgon] NRP: He pulled that out of his ass.
[Crackshot] You know what? You do it, Dom. I'm going to stand around and look like I'm doing something.
[Status`] NRP: *waves it around*
* Siawase runs around the inside of the shuttle, working on fixing it up.
[SOUND]
* Wiendigo` glares at Siawase
[Dominator] Great... *checks the damage on the hydro-ulator*
* Gorgon tosses a rag to the ground
[Dominator] NRP: So, tell us, GM, what does the hydro-ulator do?
[Gorgon] Damn thing..
[Status`] NRP: Good question.  
[Crackshot] NRP: It hydrodulates the ship, duh.
[Wiendigo`] Why don't you just push the ship, Dominator?
[Status`] NRP: Good, BJ, good BJ.
[Dominator] Hrm, only moderate damage... that's good. Let's see... *moves a pump back to its proper place*
[Status`] ...wrong way.
* Gorgon punches the engine
* Dominator ignores Status and keeps moving it circuitously until he finally reaches the right place
[Crackshot] Oh, like that's going to do any good.
[Status`] ...wrong way....
[Gorgon] Hey, you never know.
* Dominator ... keeps moving it
[Status`] Left.
[Crackshot] Anybody here want to donate their arms to smartass over there?
* Dominator moves it left
* Gorgon reaches his hand done between the engine and starts twisting some tubes
[Status`] Up.
* Dominator moves it up
[Status`] Okay, lock it into place.
* Dominator sighs, locking it into place
[Gorgon] NRP: and then you turn your self around
[Dominator] All right, how are we doing now, Status?
[Dominator] NRP: *whaps Gorgon*
[Status`] Well, you fixed the fluxator pump...cna we move onto the HYDRO-ULATOR now?
[Dominator] NRP: Notice that Death Star never had to deal with this stuff as a leader?
* Crackshot smacks his forehead
[Crackshot] Who screwed this thing up in the first place!?
* Siawase keeps working on fixing various things
[Wiendigo`] I didn't think the battle ships would fire, so, sue me.
[Dominator] Anything else we need to fix? So we can speed this up?
[Status`] ....the HYDRO-ULATOR here...helloooo?  Am I computing properly?
* Dominator looks for the hydro-ulator
* Gorgon moves over to Dom wiping the oil off his arms
[Crackshot] *ahem* I don't even think any of us know what the hell a "hydro-ulator" is...
[Dominator] Thanks... All right, this has got to be the hydro-ulator
[Status`] That's the shield generator core.
[Dominator] ...right...Status?
[Gorgon] The Hydro-ulator should be to the right of it
[Dominator] Very funny... I meant this...
[Gorgon] No, thats my arm.
[Dominator] ... Behind his arm
* Crackshot sighs and lays out in the sand
[Dominator] *mutters* I'm going to have to have a talk with whoever built this thing...
[Status`] ...that?  Oh, that look like a sandwich.
[Dominator] All right, Status, just where is this thing and how do I fix it?
[Crackshot] With mechanics like you, I think I'll do my own repairs...
[Status`] It's behind that labeled panel saying "HYDRO-ULATOR".
* Siawase just gets tired of listening and fixes the hydro-ulator
* Gorgon yawns
[Dominator] ...Well, so it is.
* Status` scans Siawase, but sees he can't open the panel
* Dominator moves over to it and opens it up, "Now...?"
* Crackshot partially deactivates his systems and "falls asleep"
[Gorgon] NRP: when did Tsiv use human technology?
[Status`] NRP: Stolen.
[Dominator] NRP: They stole from us...?
[Status`] NRP: Of course.  Raid a planet and steal!!
* Gorgon tosses sand on Crackshot
[Dominator] NRP: Actually, that makes sense, since this is in the fringes and apparently not too important
* Crackshot coughs, leaps to his feet, and lets a gust of wind fly at the source of the sand
* Gorgon stands there
[Dominator] This should do it. *makes some adjustments*
[Status`] ...yep, you finally did it dom
[Status`] Lets troop inside the shuttle.
[Crackshot] Hrm. Heavy bastard.
* Gorgon gets into the shuttle
[Gorgon] Thank you
* Iceheart is still wearing Wien's jacket
* Crackshot spits at Gorgon, then boards the shuttle
[Dominator] ...Hey, it's been a long time since I took Starship Mechanics 101... I don't even think we had hydro-ulators back then...
[Baberlus] NRP: *likes watching*
[Status`] ...you ARE kidding, right...?
[Gorgon] My god your old.
[Dominator] Yes, yes, Status... Everyone, let's get going
[Status`] ...can't we watch the battleships in the distance?
* Crackshot coughs
* Wiendigo` sits in the co-pilots seat.
[Wiendigo`] No, tincan.
[Dominator] Now, we have to decide how to go about this... Status, how is the battleship drilling into the earth doing?
[SOUND]
[Status`] ...going quite well.
[Dominator] Any estimates...?
[Status`] Hour.
[Wiendigo`] Oh, great, oh leader, you dragged your ass until the last minute.
[Dominator] Damn... You still have no idea about the crew complement on that battleship?
[Gorgon] So what are our odds?
[Status`] . . .Gee, it's nice you think I can do more than what's mechanically possible.
[Status`] . . . odds on what?
[Gorgon] Of you shutting up
*** Hikari is now known as Ariel
* Status` remains silent, as if pouting
[Dominator] All right. How much combat experience do you all have...?
[Gorgon] I'm kidding you glorified soccerball
* Wiendigo` drums fingers
[Gorgon] Enough
[Crackshot] Quite a bit... Ok, actually, very little...
[Siawase] Siawase not a fighter...
[Dominator] ...Great...
[Iceheart] I ... don't remember.
[Crackshot] Great answer...
[Dominator] Status, the best way to get onto that battleship...?
* Iceheart goes back to being silent
[Status`] . . . there IS no best way with this shuttle.
[Dominator] Will have to find a best way... I think we ought to try and get it's shields down and teleport in
[Status`] Impossible.
[Dominator] Explain...
[Status`] Weeeeeell, it's a battleship...we're a shuttle.
[Crackshot] We're not going through this again... Give us a way in, Status. Make it fast.
[Gorgon] Yeah
[Status`] The designs are...2 shots, we go boom.
[Dominator] Even a moment with them down would be enough...
[Status`] 1900 shots from us, their shields go down.
[Dominator] Any way to bypass their shielding and teleport in?
[Crackshot] Ok, Status, if your AI is programmed well enough to tell us that, then give us a way in. Catch my drift?
[Status`] ...let me think for an hour.
[Crackshot] ...So much for well-programmed AI...
* Wiendigo` groans
[Dominator] What about the beam they are shooting into the earth? Wouldn't their shields have to be lowered for that... We could try and get in that way...
[Status`] ...well, I haven't tested that theory.
[Gorgon] But wouldn't that beam kill us?
[Status`] Well, if we're bad pilots.
[Dominator] It depends on how large the opening for the beam is...
[Dominator] Wiendigo and have experience... You do, don't you, Wiendigo?
[Gorgon] Good point.
[Wiendigo`] ---why do you think we ended up crashed earlier?
[Wiendigo`] Because *I* was told to fly.
[Dominator] ...I'll handle the flying...
[Dominator] Anyone have any other ideas?
[Crackshot] Well, since going in with guns blazing is out...
[Status`] ---go watch a movie?
* Siawase ponders
[Gorgon] We send this shuttle with enough explosives to blow a hole in the moon towards their battleship?
[Status`] Then how would WE get on it?
[Dominator] All right, Status, last question (hopefully)... I want you to try and mask us from the Tsivrixsh as well as possible.
[Status`] ....that's a question?
[Dominator] ... Could you do that?
[Status`] Oh, that's the question!
[Status`] No.
[Dominator] At least they won't be expecting us this way...
[Wiendigo`] Shouldn't we have thought of a plan when we were repairing the SHIP?  Time's TICKING.  I don't want to be around when this planet goes boom.
[Status`] Who WOULD expect us to fly at a shooting beam of dangerous rays in hopes of entering a HUGE and deadly battleship?
[Dominator] ... My point. Everyone, buckle up
* Gorgon sits down i na seat
[Wiendigo`] Oh, geeze, great.
* Dominator sits in the pilot seat activing the shuttle
[SOUND]
* Siawase finds a safe seat
[Status`] GM: Shuttle activates and shoots off into the air without being ordered too.
[Dominator] NRP: Er, time to follow our heroic hearts...
[Dominator] What...?
[Status`] NRP: Yes, yes, HE is expecting you.
[Wiendigo`] What the hell!?
[Dominator] NRP: HE as in the human clone of DS genetically engineered by the Tsivrixsh to secretly counter our assualts? ... Or just old Xriletsone...
[Status`] Hmmm...I think Crackbullet put the neuron sensors in wrong.
[Dominator] Status, status report!
[Gorgon] This does'nt look good
[Dominator] Wiendigo, fix that... Status, direct him...
[Status`] ...he would have to go OUTSIDE the shuttle
* Wiendigo` stands up
[Dominator] Can we compensate for it?
[Status`] ---oh, gee, I was just expecting him to fall.  
* Dominator attempts to get control of the shuttle
[Status`] GM: *The shuttle, shakily, goes under control*
* Dominator attempts to switch to the auxilary neuron sensors (I'm sure we have those...)
* Siawase hides under a seat
[Gorgon] NRP: Why wouldn't we?
[Dominator] NRP: Wait... why would sensors be related to accelaration?
[Status`] ---Dom, why did you switch over to the news channel...there isn o cnews?
[Status`] NRP: Well, it sensed you controlling it.
[Dominator] ... Hold on... *tries to keep cover as he heads toward the battleship*
[SOUND]
[Status`] ---say, nice view of the ray from here...
[Dominator] WIendigo, ready the weapons...
[Status`] GM: *the huge green ray blocks 3/4s of their view...striking the earth
[Wiendigo`] They were blown out.
[Gorgon] My my thats huge
* Siawase shivers
* Dominator heads for it, hoping the proximity will obscure the Tsivrixsh sensors
[Status`] Actually, it's turned on low.
[Gorgon] What?
[Status`] The ray.
[Dominator] They're hoping we would've surrendered...
[Status`] Are we?
[Wiendigo`] No, shit for brains.
[Dominator] Going to surrender? Of course not...
[Status`] Why not?
* Dominator hits some buttons to help keep the ship on course, getting closer to the beam
[Status`] GM: *Dom heads closer for the ray...the shuttle's shields begin to flicker and die*
[Dominator] ... How long will the shields last, Status?
[Status`] 45 more seconds.
[Dominator] Here goes nothing then...
[SOUND]
[Status`] Uh oh...
* Dominator aims upward for the entrance to the ship and hits the boosters
[Status`] AAAAAAAH
[Status`] I am getting NO reading on their shields, Dominator!
[Status`] They COULD be up!
[Dominator] What? Wouldn't this ray dissipate them too?
[Status`] Could...could not.
[Dominator] Wiendigo, try and fire off something to see if the shields are active...
[Wiendigo`] ---weapons are dead, remember, idiot?
[Dominator] A flare, maybe?
[Crackshot] Gonnadiegonnadiegonnadiegonnadiegonnadiegonnadie...
[Wiendigo`] We could throw Gorgon's ass out.
[Status`] ...13 seconds until impact...if it's there.
[Gorgon] ...How bout not
[Dominator] NRP: What do we have that we could shoot?
[Gorgon] NRP: Status
[Wiendigo`] NRP: AAAAH
[Dominator] NRP: *snickers*

[Status`] 0.
[Status`] -1.
[Status`] ...shields must be down.
[Dominator] ... *breathes a sigh of relief*
[Crackshot] ...We're not gonna die...
[Dominator] I'm never trying this again...
[Status`] GM: *turbo cannons open fire*
[Gorgon] Oh shit
[Crackshot] We're gonna die...
[Dominator] NRP: From inside the ship?
[Status`] NRP: Outside, you're only in the proxmity of the shield
* Siawase hides his head under his paws
[Status`] GM: *the shuttle shakes with being hit*
* Dominator increases speed, trying to carefully dodge the blsats
[Status`] I found a hanger....45 meters upward and 20 meters to the left.
[Status`] GM: *The turbo cannons fire, blocking the upward path*
[SOUND]
* Gorgon holds onto his seat
[Dominator] Whoa!
* Dominator narrowly averts hitting the fire
[Dominator] Anywhere else, Status?
* Dominator looks for a route around the canno fire
[Status`] ...only place we can reach without being blown up...go 5 meters left then go up.
* Dominator hits the boosters and heads there
[Status`] GM: *turbo cannons remain and lock onto Dom, ready to fire in 10 seconds*
[Dominator] Hang... on... *turns upward, violating the safety warnings from the computer*
[Status`] Computer: *sparks*
[Status`] ...we're locked on...we have 10 seconds to reach the hanger.
[Status`] 10.
[Status`] 9.
[Status`] 8.
[Status`] 7.
[Dominator] Maybe the hydro-ulator will help...
[Status`] 6.
[Status`] 5.
[Status`] 4.
[Status`] 3.
[Status`] 2.

[Status`] 1.
[Status`] 0.
[Crackshot] We're dead...
* Status` the shuttle shakes and shields die
[Gorgon] ?

[Crackshot] Well, not yet...
[Status`] GM: They are 15 meters downward and 15 meters to the right of the hanger
[Status`] Turbocannons relocking on in...10.
[Status`] 9.
[Dominator] Hold together... *pulls upward and right*
[Status`] 8.
[Status`] 7.
[Status`] 6.
[Crackshot] It's not that far! Gun it, Dom!
[Status`] 5.
[Status`] 3.
[Dominator] NRP: 15 meters should get us there really easily...
[Status`] NRP: Hrm...
[Status`] GM: The shuttle is at the hanger
[Status`] 2.
[Status`] 1.
* Dominator lands the ship in the hangar
[Status`] 0.
[Dominator] Everyone out! *teleports out of the ship*
* Gorgon runs out of hte ship
[Status`] EEEE-----*
* Crackshot follows suit, teleporting out
* Wiendigo` exits the shuttle, dragging Iceheart.
[Iceheart] ---now where to?
[Crackshot] NRP: Longest second I've seen in a while...
[Status`] NRP: I can't shoot us INSIDE the hanger...
[Crackshot] NRP: *shrugs*
[Dominator] NRP: Oh.
[Dominator] NRP: Any weaponry in the shuttle?
[Dominator] Status, scan the area
[Status`] Scanning
[Status`] NRP: Nah.
[Dominator] ... and?
[Status`] ----and we have company.
[Gorgon] Where?
[Crackshot] I think we shorted out my fear sensors back th... Oh, shit...
[Status`] Oh, right down that hallway.
* Gorgon looks down the hallway
* Crackshot sighs
[Status`] GM: *nothing is seen*
[Crackshot] Ready to die, folks?
[Gorgon] I don't see anything
[Iceheart] I don't hear anything.
[Wiendigo`] I don't smell anything.
[Crackshot] I don't taste anything.
[Crackshot] ...Wait a second...

* Wiendigo shifts his eyebrows
[Dominator] Iceheart... that wasn't your fault...
[Iceheart] Still.
[Wiendigo] How the hell are we supposed to keep you secret then?

[Wiendigo] You're fucking kidding, right?
* Dominator glances back at Wiendigo

* Wiendigo lowers his cannon
[Wiendigo] Let's deal with it when and IF we come to that point.
* Iceheart stands there, watching the blood red clouds in the sky, a cold, bitter wind blowing
[Status`] ---so, anyway, what's this about love?
[Dominator] NRP: The plot thickens... Uh-oh, this reminds me off a soap opera... Love triangular with Iceheart, DS, and Wiendigo... *shakes head* Don't want to think about that

[Wiendigo] ....
* Wiendigo throws his cannon back up

* Wiendigo lunges at the shield and starts beating on it
* Iceheart walks past them
[Dominator] That's it! *shuts off Status's voice circut*
[Dominator] Ow! Watch it, Wiendigo!
[Iceheart] When you guys are done being total morons about something as stupid as poetry, then I'll head on out.
[Iceheart] As if ANY of you know anything about anything anyway...
* Iceheart walks on
[Dominator] Ahem, is it my fault Status is on my fault... *follows her*
[Crackshot] Hey! That's MY shield you're beating on!
* Wiendigo stops in mid-smack
* Wiendigo throws his arms down to his sides and follows with his head down, grumbling
[Iceheart] Sheesh...so, Dominator, now what/
[Dominator] NRP: ... beats me... er...
[Dominator] Well, we may have saved the planet for the time, but they still have a fleet in orbit
[Crackshot] *clears his throat* Dom, my shield?
* Iceheart plays with her hair while listening
[Dominator] Oh yeah... *tosses it back to him... though it has a big dent, curtisy of Wiendigo*
* Status` is quiet and pouting
* Crackshot catches it and immediately gets to work beating out the dent
[Dominator] I want to try and make contact with the Hunters outside the planet... It's a longshot, but we can't defeat the Tsivrixsh alone...
* Iceheart 's face falls at contacting the Hunters
[Dominator] We may have to retreat from the planet, but...
[Iceheart] Alright.
[Dominator] One way or another, we'll save Earth. Whatever it takes... That doesn't mean it's going to be easy though... No, it never is...
[Iceheart] ...is it?
[Dominator] Not with us, at least...

[Gorgon] NRP: thank you
[Dominator] ... Let's why we're walking toward him
* Dominator glances at Wiendigo...
* Iceheart glances at Wiendigo
[Wiendigo] Pleeeaaseee...We've beat the shit out of EVERY target to cross our paths. We're frickin' unstoppable.
[Iceheart] You're a legend in your own mind, aren't you?
[Wiendigo] Every damn day, Frosty.
[Crackshot] Maybe for now, Wien... *having finished with the dent, puts the shield back on his back* But it won't last... *sighs*
[Dominator] ... Maybe, but we'll see, Wiendigo...
[Dominator] We have to fight to survive, but... *face darkens* unfortunetly, I'm used to it
[Status`] NRP: You can sense Dom's looking for his ending speechl ine
[Wiendigo] Okay, you can bite the big one and I'LL be the one to save the day. Again.
* Dominator picks up Gorgon
[Iceheart] You aren't big enough for me to bite, Wiendigo.  *pats him on the back and follows Dom*
[Dominator] So, unstoppable Wiendigo, I won't stop you from carrying Gorgon for us...
[Wiendigo] ...*stops* Yeah? And how would YOU know, eh? EH? Answer me THAT one!
[Wiendigo] ...*grumbles about carrying a big, smelly, oaf*
* Dominator tosses Gorgon over to Wiendigo and follows Iceheart; chuckles lightly at Wienidog
[Iceheart] NRP: Wienidog?
* Wiendigo slings Gorgon over his shoulder
[Wiendigo] God you smell...
[Dominator] NRP: ... That was unintentional
