[Booster] NRP: Ergh...
[Booster] NRP: I think I need to switch servers...  I can't play if I keep falling to burst-lag...
[Iceheart] GM: *a line can be seen coming forward*
[Crystal] Dont look now.. here they come...
* Snipe looks
[Snipe] Damn, you're right.
* Enforcer draws a bead on the lead line of guys, and begins charging the cannon
[Ariel] And the games begin...
[Wiendigo] NRP: Sounds good, Bosster
[Gorgon] Crystal, think you can make a huge wall of crystal to halt them?
*** JustinII has quit IRC (Leaving)
[Booster] NRP: BRB...
* Garland pockets the Gil and sighs "No one ever listens to me"
[Crystal] ... Wall.. of Crystal????
[Enforcer] Give me the word, and I'll blast em
[Gorgon] ...Great, you don't remember how to fight huh.
[Gravedigger] Hey, what if we dug a trench and put a bunch of explosive stuff in it?
*** Booster has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
* Snipe grabs rifle and lines it up
[Snipe] Out of range
*** Pteryx (Pteryx@3187-maine-56k.ime.net) has joined #taw
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o Pteryx
[Crystal] I have no idea how to "create crystal" as you put it....
[Iceheart] Tell me when they're in range so I can form the mist.
*** Pteryx is now known as Booster
[Dominator] Sorry Garland, but right now we need planning, not the toss of a coin.
[Dominator] X, Zero, ideas?
[Gorgon] Try to think, like thrust your hands forward and think Crystal
[Garland] I was only suggesting.
[Zero``] I say me and X go and stall them, you guys fight where you can.  If it looks too hard, back out now.
[Enforcer] Dom, when they get in range, thing we could take out the back first, create confusion?
* Crystal shakes her head 1"I dont think so
[Dominator] We need to get to that ship. If anyone wants to back out now, I'll understand.
[Gorgon] Try it
[Booster] I'm not quitting now...
* Crystal shrugs, and thrusts her hands out... nothing happening.
[Garland] I'm not backing out, ever.
[Dominator] Enforcer, we'd need to be IN back in order to accomplish that,
[Gorgon] Worth a try.
[Enforcer] Not with the morter mode of the Juggernaut cannon.
[Dominator] Unless we lob attacks...
[Booster] If we split up, we should have about an equal number of people better at close-range and at long-range combat in each group...
* Enforcer flips a swtich, and two tripods slideout
[Dominator] Status, update.
[Enforcer] Got a few rocks?
[Iceheart] I'm game.
* Garland looks around for a rock
[Dominator] We can't risk splitting up right now, Booster, our numbers are on the weak side as it is.
[Snipe] I lead this group, so, I stay.
[Dias] Ice, make a ball of ice for him to launch
[Dominator] Snipe, it's your call.
[SOUND]
[Snipe] Lets fight.
[Booster] Well, Zero, if it's too much for even you two, will you be OK?
[Snipe] Dig a trench.
* Crystal looks around her armor, patting various places, eventually finding a large sabre, which she ignites with a hissing sound
[Crystal] Whoa...
[Gravedigger] Roger.
* Gravedigger starts digging
* Dominator fires at the ground with his Thunder...attack thing
* Zero`` looks at the numbers, whistling
[Enforcer] Lot of bodies to kill
* X` sees the "really really big thing"
[X`] It's a giant...cannon!
* Garland 's armor and wings appear
[Wiendigo] Great.
[Iceheart] ...
[Enforcer] ...
[Snipe] ...
[Enforcer] Lets NOT press this attack then...
[Zero``] ...
* Dias concentrates and wings form from his armor
[Garland] Let's hope it's not very fast to aim, looking at it's size.
[Snipe] They're in range!
[Snipe] GM: *the blasts open fire*
* Crystal takes a step back
[Zero``] Dammit, we need to retreat...the cannon's charging up, we'll never make it!
[Enforcer] Hit em now or what???
[Snipe] Get out of here.
* Garland blinks at Dias
* Snipe begins to back up
[Enforcer] .. Right. Run like hell.
[Dias] Armor...
* Ariel falls back, twirling her blade defensively
* Booster ducks and covers, his cream fur covering him...
* Enforcer picks up whoever is close to him and runs like hell
[Iceheart] ...
[Dominator] A tactful retreat. Nice.
* Dias turns around and runs
* Dominator runs
* Gravedigger sprints
* Iceheart turns around and sees a low vally 50 meters back
[Iceheart] Head for that!
[Gorgon] Holy shit...*spins around and retreats*
* Iceheart forms an ice shield 10 feet wide and 15 feet high
* Enforcer nods and aims for that
* Booster races after the party, proving to be surprisingly fast...
* Wiendigo falls back, occasionally firing arm cannon blasts
* Garland blurs for the valley
* Crystal follows Enforcer, easily outrunning him
[X`] GM: *the cannon opens fire, hits the ice shield, stops, but goes on either side of it, a constant beam that continues on and on*
* Wiendigo slides down into the valley
* Dias the wings melt back into his armor as he runs towards the valley
* Iceheart groans, pumping more ice into the shield
* Gravedigger dives in
* Zero`` runs
* X` runs
* Crystal dives in
* Snipe runs
* Dominator fires ice blasts onto the shield as he backs up
* Garland flips into the valley
* Dias jumps down into the valley
* Gorgon slides down the valley side and in it
* Booster speeds into the valley...
[Wiendigo] FROST! GET IN HERE!
[Iceheart] GM: *the cannon blast continues to fire, on all sides of the ice shield, not hitting the group as long as they are behind Ice*
[Iceheart] If I drop it...it might hit you guys...
* Snipe dives into safety
* Zero`` flips into safety
[Wiendigo] IF YOU DON'T, IT MIGHT HIT YOU!
* X` walks dwon into the rivine
* Iceheart steps back, still pumping ice
[Garland] Ana come on!
* Ariel slides down
[Iceheart] Dammit, I can't make i, he shield will break!
* Dominator drops down, still firing ice onto the shield from the edge
[Wiendigo] Dammit.
[Dias] Garland, blur over there and bring her here
* Wiendigo climbs out and runs out
[X`] GM: *the cannon keeps firing*
* Crystal steps beside Iceheart, and pulls her into the valley
[Iceheart] Wiendigo?!  No you don't!
* Garland starts to, but Wien gets out first
[Iceheart] NRP: Uh, Ice's 50 meters away
[Crystal] NRP: ... right..
[Wiendigo] Yes I do.
* Garland looks at Dias
[Dias] Wien!! MAKE A DEEP HOLE AND DIVE IN IT WITH HER!
[Garland] Don't tell me what to do, by the way.
* Iceheart growls, losing energy, the shield constantly breaking
[Snipe] Dammit!
* Booster winces.  "There's no use trying to tell him what to do, guys..."
[Dias] Bite me.
* Snipe turns to the others
* Wiendigo grabs IH and phases, diving into the ground
[Snipe] They'll both die!
[Iceheart] GM: *the shield breaks, the beam flying at the others*
[Enforcer] STAY DOWN
[X`] Duck!
* Enforcer ducks
* X` ducks
* Dias ducks
* Zero`` ducks
* Gorgon drops to the ground
* Snipe ducks
* Crystal ducks, right beside X
* Garland gets down
[Gorgon] NRP: HAH DIFFERENT
* Dominator drops down
* Booster crouches the way he did before....
[Iceheart] GM: *the beam flies over their heads, the small valley saving them, then it stops, the cannon smoking in the distance*
* Dominator fires an ice cover over their position
[Snipe] ...*stands up and sighs* Wiendigo and Iceheart...died...
[Garland] ......Do we..... attack now?
[Gorgon] ...Shit, you think they survived?
[Booster] Who knows...
[Gravedigger] Of course.
[Dias] How long till that cannon rechages
* Gravedigger points at the dirt wall
[Crystal] .....
[Garland] Wiendigo refuses to die, It's Ana I'm worried about.
[Zero``] Lets press our advantage.
* Wiendigo phases out throught the cleft with IH in tow.
[X`] But if they fire that again...
[Crystal] Lets get the hell out of here....
[Ariel] It's Wien... we couldn't be so lucky.
[Dias] Status, how long till they recharge?
[Enforcer] We have a choice.  Fry or die.
* Gravedigger jams his elbow into Snipe's side
[Iceheart] Status: 10 minutes.
[Booster] Whew, Frosty, you're safe...
[Snipe] *gags* They're alive!
* Iceheart looks up at Wiendigo
[Iceheart] That was really stupid!
[Garland] Let's go!
[Iceheart] ...but thanks.
[Dominator] We need a plan and quick.
[Dias] Choice...run along this valley and try to circle around em or what?
[Garland] We only have 10 minutes!
[Wiendigo] So I'm stupid, live with it.
[X`] Dammit, lets do that.
[Crystal] So are we standing around or getting the hell out of here?
[X`] I don't want to tango with that cannon again.
[Booster] Is there any way to get the high ground relative to them, Status?
[Iceheart] Status: Hmmm...Well, if we follow this valley into the rift...go that 2 miles out of the way, we can climb up there...and be back on track.  And away from them.
[Iceheart] GM: *the line starts marching for them*
[Dias] Lets do that
[Dominator] What if we start making a tunnel that goes straight ahead, under them?
[Enforcer] ... Move out NOW.
[Crystal] ... *peeks up*
* Snipe grabs his rifle and runs along the valley
* Booster nods to Status.  "Avoiding them does sound like a better idea..."
* Dias runs down the valley
[Snipe] Hoo haw!

[Snipe] Where the hell is Death Star?
* Dias slides down next to Snipe
* Booster seems to have little trouble making his way downwards.
[Dias] Takin a nice bath
[Ariel] Hey Gar, can you try to raise him on your Comm?
* Garland looks up at Booster
* X` grabs Booster and slides to the bottom
[Wiendigo] Jerkin' off somewhere, I'm sure.
[Garland] Hold on.
* X` sets him down
[Garland] Hey Booster, need a little help?
[Garland] .....Or not.
[Dominator] ...Charming, Wien.
[Ariel] *glares at Wien* You do have a deathwise, don't you?
* Crystal sighs
[Wiendigo] Hey, I try.
[Booster] NRP: Little trouble, not a little trouble...
[Booster] NRP: There's a difference...
[Garland] NRP: heh........erm.
[Garland] NRP: DS did it!
[Garland] I don't think he'll answer me, Ariel.
[Wiendigo] Gee Ariel, I didn't know you cared for the Death Shit. I'll remember that for future aggrivating.
* Snipe turns to Grave
[Enforcer] .... Keep quiet about it now Wien
* Booster winces.
[Dias] Lets get going
[Snipe] I take it he and Death Star still have that ego thing going on with each other.
[Gravedigger] You wouldn't believe...
[Ariel] *shakes her head* Just try Gar, okay?
[Garland] ...Alright....
* Booster just continues to quietly hurry on his way...
* Garland pulls out his comm
[Snipe] Oh, I believe...the truth is out there
* Snipe keeps jogging along

* Crystal continues moving, silently
* Booster (NRP) fwaps Snipe...
[Enforcer] NRP: Harder!
[SOUND]
[Garland] NRP: instert "Comm:"
[Dominator] ...Of troops that were attacking us?
[Iceheart] ...yes, Garland?  Where the hell are you guys?  I was worried.
[Iceheart] NRP: DS said that.
[Enforcer] The almighty Death Star himself....
[Iceheart] Status: Oh, THEM.  Right above us...if we don't hurry, they'll shoot down.
[Garland] Comm: Oh here and there,  We has a little trouble.
[Enforcer] What a great reunion.
[Booster] He even survived lava... amazing...
* Enforcer keeps moving
[Dominator] Tell him we could use his help right about now.
[Iceheart] Death Star: I heard fighting going on...sounded like you guys were dying.  I've been searching for you.
* Crystal loudly enough to be heard over the Comm
[Gorgon] Status, think you can find our coordinates and relay them to him?
[Garland] Comm: We're in a bit of trouble now, actually....
[Crystal] Lets get a move on....
* Wiendigo watches IH for any reaction
[Iceheart] Death Star: Crystal...nah..

* Iceheart keeps her expressions masked
[Iceheart] Death Star: What kind?  Dammit, I think they're tracing this..
* Crystal shakes her head and continues moving on
[Garland] Comm: Anyway, Dad said we could use a little help now, got a few surprizes for ya when we meet up.
[Gravedigger] It's a little late for that anyway!
[Booster] Uh, if that's the case, we'd better RUN!
* Gorgon continues moving
* Crystal mutters 1"Its your asses on the line, not mine."
[Iceheart] Death Star: Dad?  Surprises?
* Snipe is far, far ahead of the group
* Booster goes faster, paying less attention to noise level.
[Ariel] You'll see DS...
* Zero`` is next to Snipe
[Dominator] Status, update on their position. And keep 'em coming!
* Dias runs after Snipe
* X` is behind him
[Iceheart] Death Star: Dominator...?
[Iceheart] Status: Looks like they're backing off.
[Dominator] We'll explain later, just get here, Death Star!
[Garland] Comm: Yeah! Um... I think we have to go...
[Iceheart] Death Star: Riiiiight.  Alright, see you at the ship.
[Wiendigo] They're heading back for him.

[Iceheart] Status: However, they aren't heading for the ship either.
[Gorgon] Turn around?
* Dominator runs
[Gorgon] No?
* Dominator stop
[Iceheart] Status: So, that means, DS isn't near the ship.  So..
[Garland] Comm: DeathStar, get ready for some hell, they may be comming after you now....
* Dominator stops
[Enforcer] They are tracking something else....
[Gorgon] what?
[Enforcer] Or something else is coming for us...
[Enforcer] ...... move NOW!
[Iceheart] Status: Running like idiots to the ship to save him won't work.  We can go comely.
[Garland] Comm: Err....... Maybe not.
[Iceheart] calmly
[Dominator] What ARE they going after, Status?
[Iceheart] comm: *statics, indicating it's open, but no response as DS is busy*
[Iceheart] Status: Uh...I'm not sure.  Maybe to head us off?
[Enforcer] Thats why we get there before they do.
[Dominator] I'm open to suggestions, people.
[Garland] ...Well lets go!
[Snipe] So, the race for the ship begins.  Can we beat the aliens there?  Find out!
* Snipe takes off
[Garland] They're going to head us off right? Let's go the other way?
* Dias runs after Snipe
[Gravedigger] Wait! Didn't DS say he'd SEE us at the ship? That doesn't MEAN he's there, does it?
[Iceheart] ...what a moron...
* Gorgon takes after Snipe
[Garland] Oh screw it.
* Enforcer takes off after Snipe
* Booster races with Snipe as well...
* Iceheart follows Snipe
* Garland blurs
