* Ratshoot swishes his tail around
[Speedblade] You know something? It'd be fun to try the travelling system on this thing.
* Shadowstorm the one tendril disappears, while another forms behind him
[Trigger`] Here's an idea for you, asshole. Leave me alone before I seriously screw you up.
* Ditto looks over Speedblade's shoulder
[Ditto] What's that?
[Shadowstorm] Bring it on rookie.
[Speedblade] We watched ourselves as Mavericks last time... maybe we should check out a dimension where we can actually move around.
[Trigger`] Anytime, rustbucket.
* Nocturne` snickers quietly.

[Shadowstorm] Lets fire it up
* Uplink eyes grow big
[Uplink] DEMON!
[Uplink] AAH
* Uplink claws at the wall to try and escape
[Uplink] DEMON!
* Ditto *As Uplink* looks at Uplink
[Speedblade] By the way, I've done a little studying... it seems that we'll take on a few characteristics of whatever dimensions we end up in with this system...
[Trigger`] ...*scowls and whaps Uplink upside his head* Shut up.
* Ditto laughs and morphs back to his normal sleek silver armor
[Hikari] ...freaks...
* Uplink whimpers
[Ratshoot] ...Where the hell are we goin', anyway?
[Trigger`] I agree, looney, that Russian is a freak.
[Shadowstorm] Oh? Like what kind of characteristics?
[Shadowstorm] Looks.. weapon systems type thing?
[Speedblade] Eh, skills, maybe a little bit of the forms...
* Uplink rubs head, muttering incoherant stuff
* Ditto walks away still laughing
* Speedblade finishes typing keys, then jumps back as the computer's monitor transforms into a shimmering red portal not unlike a time portal
[Speedblade] ...WHOA!

* Shadowstorm pokes his head back through the portal
[Shadowstorm] Get your asses in here..
[Speedblade] ...Need I treat you like X did that time?

[Tusk] I ought to stay and watch the machines. Something could go wrong.
[Garmsian] I guess I could
* Tusk begins tapping out keys
* Tusk glances up, and leaps back as the monitor sparks
[Tusk] What in the...?
* Tusk watches as the monitor transforms into a swirling red portal similar to a time portal
[Garmsian] ...
[Garmsian] If I die...I'm gonna haunt you forever...
[Tusk] As you wish...
* Garmsian leaps at the portal
[Speedblade] Location for all: plains in the middle of nowhere. Garmsian and the Shielders are together.

[Shadowstorm] ... Thats it.
[Trigger`] Then don't hit me.
[Speedblade] GM: All male members' clothes have been replaced with suits of medieval armor. Hikari is now wearing a light suit of armor as well. All weapons have been replaced with their metallic counterparts. Even stranger, all Reploids are now human, including Hikari. All old non-weapon skills are retained.
[Speedblade] GM: Can't believe I forgot that part.
* Ratshoot bites Trigger's hand and holds on
[Nocturne`] Interesting...
[Trigger`] ...GAAAH, BLOOD!?

[Hikari] NRP: What does this mean for Yuurei?
[Shadowstorm] ... Where the hell ARE WE?
* Uplink bangs on his armor.
[Speedblade] NRP: Note the "including Hikari" above. Think multiple-personality syndrome.
* Trigger` drops Ratshoot and stomps on him
[Ratshoot] NRP: ...Could I just be an actual rat that talks? It might be less confusing...
[Speedblade] I don't know... but we're stuck here.
[Speedblade] NRP: Go ahead. That's what I meant.
* Ratshoot jumps out of the way
* Shadowstorm looks at himself
* Speedblade looks off into the horizon

[Trigger`] Just come within my reach!
* Ditto reaches for his concield dagger and steel ring, hoping they are still there
[Trigger`] NRP: You lost your powers! HAH!
[Shadowstorm] NRP: no i didnt.
[Hikari] What? NO! I'm stuck in here!?
[Trigger`] NRP: Did too!
[Speedblade] NRP: "All abilities are RETAINED."
[Ratshoot] NRP: But trashing TRigger's more fun!
[Trigger`] NRP: Damn, where'd that come from!
[Shadowstorm] NRP: near the middle
* Uplink rolls around
[Speedblade] ...You know, fighting each other is getting us nowhere...
[Ditto] (do I have my concield weapons?
[Ditto] )
[Ratshoot] Naw, but it sure as hell is loads o' fun.
* Trigger` chases Ratshoot around
[Hikari] This isn't fair... *looks ready to cry*
[Shadowstorm] How in the heck are we supposed to get back? This looks like a whole lot of steel around here...)
[Speedblade] NRP: Yeah, but they're a little more metallic now.
[Garmsian] NRP: Alright...got my axe.....
[Speedblade] ...Let's find a city or something...
[Ditto] (They were metalic befor, so no worries)

[Uplink] Ants: *bite Shadow*

* Speedblade stops, looking at the pegasus behind the smokescreen

* Ditto skids to a stops, but ends up crashing into Speed
[Ditto] AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
* Garmsian starts to desend from the sky
[Shadowstorm] How can we get the heck out of this bloody dimention timewarp thingy?
* Speedblade falls to the ground, rolling to avoid landing on Ratshoot, knowing he is a rat now
[Garmsian] AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!
* Ditto slowly trys to get up shaking his head
* Trigger` looks at the smoke that's surrounded him
[Trigger`] ....what now?
[Ditto] This armor hurts when ya fall down
* Hikari has problems rolling with armour on @.@
[Shadowstorm] Suck it up.
* Garmsian falls infront of the group cracking the ground and causing little tremors
* Speedblade falls, as the smokescreen begins to fall
* Ditto staggers to his feet, almost trips, but gains his balance
[Speedblade] ...That's it...
* Shadowstorm falls also, tripping on a gopher hole
[Garmsian] ...
* Speedblade draws a blade, it making a satisfying sound as he does so
* Uplink falls...since he's...being carried
[Garmsian] It stopped didn't it...

* Uplink sits up, shaking his head
[Speedblade] Powers of the sky, I call to you... send your fury down upon my foes! BOLT!
* Shadowstorm blinks
* Speedblade thrusts his sword to the sky. A lightning bolt forms out of seemingly nowhere and strikes at the ground, striking the pegasus directly.
[Ratshoot] ...What kinda corball dialouge is that?
* Ditto laughs
[Shadowstorm] I suggest when we get back, we kill his writer..
[Speedblade] [Pegasus] *whimpers, now terrified, and takes off into the sky in the opposite direction*

[Speedblade] ...You could say that...
* Trigger` stands up and dusts himself off
[Ratshoot] Not him! Trigger-fart knockewr over there!

* Shadowstorm nods
* Trigger` advances on Garmsian
[Shadowstorm] Good plan

* Trigger` walks after the rest, his armor all smudged from being trampled
* Shadowstorm walks off in the direction of the city
[Garmsian] SHALL WILL FEEL MY WRAITH

[Speedblade] *aside to Nocturne* I might be the killer if he keeps up...
* Hikari catches up with Speed and looks through her kit as she walks.

[Uplink] Nyet.
[Speedblade] ...What, Rat?
[Ratshoot] Ya may wanna do somethin' 'bout them morons back there.
* Ditto runs up to Speed
[Speedblade] ...Let 'em fight. If we're where I think we are, they'll be captured soon enough.

* Speedblade slashes the air
[Ratshoot] Ow....*rubs his forehead*
[Trigger`] ...
* Trigger` spits on Rat
[Speedblade] Now, do you come with us, or do we turn you in?
* Speedblade walks for the gate, sheathing his sword
[Shadowstorm] Or sell you to the slavers?
* Ratshoot whips his tail into the back of Trigger's knees as Speed turns around

[Trigger`] GO TO HELL RAT!
[Shadowstorm] Yes..
[Speedblade] Well, maybe so. But we require entrance into your fine city to stock up on supplies.
* Uplink blows on his glasses, examines them, then puts them back on
[Speedblade] [Guard] ...As long as loudmouth there doesn't go disturbing the peace or anything...
[Ratshoot] Squeak.
[Speedblade] [Guard] *opens the gate*
[Shadowstorm] If he does, tell us, and we'll arrest him for you.
* Trigger` walks over to the guard
[Speedblade] ...Could I enquire as to the location of a library or something?

[Trigger`] You should exterminate it.
* Speedblade adjusts his stance

* Ditto keeps his dagger hidden as he moves forward into the city
* Garmsian adjusts his scale mail
[Speedblade] [Guard] There are no plagues in our world.
[Trigger`] *whisper back* Go to hell, your threats mean nothing. You're suppose to protect people, so go take your damn attitude elsewhere.
* Hikari giggles
[Speedblade] [Guard] We have a library of magic in this city... *gives directions*

[Garmsian] ...
[Speedblade] One final question, sir.
[Speedblade] [Guard] Yes?
[Trigger`] Hey, looney, you're not from here. Remember?
* Uplink scowls at Trigger
[Speedblade] Would you mind if I threw him into the moat? *points at Trigger*
[Shadowstorm] *return whipser* My job means squat. I was fighting since when your grandparents grandparent was in swadling cloths.
[Ratshoot] Magic? Hah, so I won't be burned for witchcraft if I talk! Score one for the rodent!
[Speedblade] [Guard] As you wish. *motions to the moat*
* Trigger` steps out of everyone's reach
[Trigger`] I think not.
* Nocturne` glances over at Trigger, stifling a laugh
[Trigger`] *whispers back* I've been around a long time, rustbucket. Don't mistake me for a human. Got that?

* Uplink looks around the city
* Speedblade looks around at the hustle and bustle of the medieval lifestyle
[Trigger`] When do we get to go home?
* Ditto looks around
[Speedblade] Soon, I hope...
[Ratshoot] After ya shut yer damn mouth.
[Trigger`] Go to hell, rat.
[Trigger`] I didn't ask to come along.
* Speedblade follows the directions
* Nocturne` brushes his long white hair out of his face, 1"We sure as hell ended up somewhere strange..."
[Shadowstorm] That is fucking it.
[Speedblade] C'mon...
* Shadowstorm follows Speed
* Nocturne` follows suit
* Trigger` hmps and goes off the opposite direction
[Speedblade] Magic, huh...
* Uplink follows Speed
[Garmsian] ...
[Shadowstorm] One more word out of ANYONE that has no relavence to getting us out of here, I'll personally gut.
[Uplink] Vodka...da...Vodka good...
[Speedblade] Actually, Shadowstorm, there's nothing we can really do...
* Hikari gasps and giggles, a small ball of light floating above her hand.
[Garmsian] ...
* Speedblade notes the location of a pub and makes a mental note to come back later
* Garmsian walks to a side of a statue
[Speedblade] We might as well explore a little while we're here...
[Uplink] Nyet.
[Shadowstorm] Oh? I really dont want them fighting
* Uplink shakes head
[Uplink] Home.
[Speedblade] Like, as to how I struck that winged horse thing with that bolt of lightning.
*** X1 (wiendigo@C01-138.netonecom.net) has joined #mmxchrono
* Garmsian engraves, "1Kill Tusk"6
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o X1
[Speedblade] 2X1] All roads of life lead to death, but what matters is that you're two seconds away from me thoroughly kicking your ass.
[Uplink] Nyet! NYET! HOME!
[Speedblade] We'll just have to wait on Hunter to bring us back.
*** Ratshoot has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
[Speedblade] NRP: Shield.
[Ditto] Well, it's a city, maybe is has some sort of thieves guild...I could always learn a little more about my...arts
*** X1 is now known as Ratshoot
[Speedblade] Here we are.
* Hikari tosses the ball back and forth between her hands until she accidently misses and hits Speed
* Uplink pushes up his glasses
* Speedblade curses aloud and glares at Hikari
[Hikari] Oops...
* Uplink gives up and plops down on the roar
[Speedblade] Nice shot...
[Uplink] (road)
[Hikari] Sorry...
* Speedblade enters a building
[Speedblade] C'mon... I think this'll be interesting.
* Hikari heads in
* Uplink looks utterly depressed and rests his head in his hands
[Ratshoot] Ouch..
* Ditto follows
[Ditto] I really gotta get out of this armor
[Speedblade] Location: Ishtrar Library of Magic, two hours later
* Uplink is still outside
* Speedblade closes a book
[Speedblade] So that's it...
* Nocturne` glances around at the people looking at him funny...
* Ditto wakes up from the sound of the book closing
[Speedblade] The people of this world can draw power from five "echelons" of magic...
[Ditto] Wha...huh? WHAT!!! AHHHHHH
[Garmsian] ...
[Speedblade] ...And it seems that we all have the ability while we're here.
* Speedblade gets a strange look
[Garmsian] that sounds familiar, but where...
*** Shadowstorm has quit IRC
[Garmsian] NRP:Dom would be laughing so hard right now :P
[Speedblade] Says here that the use of a "Main Weapon" is required to use magic... *pats his sword*
[Nocturne`] Suppose that'd be my scythe then...
[Hikari] Main weapon? Um... *searches for her weapon*
*** Ditto has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
[Speedblade] GM: Hikari finds a small dagger at her side.
* Uplink sits outside, utterly and hopelessly lost into a trance of depression
[Ratshoot] ...Am I a weapon, or do I get the bum deal on this?
* Garmsian gets out his axe
[Hikari] Oh! Where'd this dagger come from...
[Speedblade] Says here that there are some exceptions...
[Speedblade] Maybe you're one of them, Ratty.
* Speedblade steps out of the library and stretches
* Uplink is still sitting there
[Speedblade] I need to loosen up...
*** Avalon has left #mmxchrono
[Speedblade] Hey 'Link, want to head to a pub I saw?
[Uplink] Nyet.
[Speedblade] How about the rest of you?
* Garmsian tries to make a spell with his axe, but makes a smell instead...
* Nocturne` stands and picks up his scythe, adjusting his tattered cape.
[Garmsian] dammit....I think that magic is just BS
[Ratshoot] ...Is drinkin' such a good idea here an' now?
[Speedblade] ...Why not?
[Speedblade] We're stuck here, we might as well live it up until we're found.
[Ratshoot] 'Cause some of us might get a bit drunk an' try an' start somethin'?
[Speedblade] ...Besides, I think Trig's already there.
[Uplink] Nyet.
* Speedblade walks towards the pub
[Uplink] Made people angry, da.
* Speedblade kneels down, grabs Uplink's armor, and drags him
[Uplink] People threw him out, da.
* Uplink is dragged along, still in his depressed position
* Nocturne` walks out of the library and looks around
[Nocturne`] Perhaps... I'd better go to the pub... I don't think these people like the looks of me
* Nocturne` follows to the pub
* Speedblade grunts
[Speedblade] You're heavy, Uplink...
[Uplink] ...da...
* Speedblade pulls Uplink into the pub and looks around
[Speedblade] ...Lively place.
* Garmsian follows in the pub and sits down
* Speedblade sits at the bar, setting Uplink on the floor
* Uplink sits next to Speed on the floor
[Speedblade] [Bartender] What'll you be having, sir?
[Uplink] Vodka.
[Speedblade] .oO{I wish bartenders back home were this polite...} Let me have the strongest thing you have.
[Speedblade] Make that two.
[Speedblade] [Bartender] *nods* But you asked for it.
* Nocturne` sits down, setting his scythe down next to himself.
[Speedblade] [Bartender] *walks away for a moment, then returns* Two Death Wish Ales.
[Hikari] Could I get a light wine?
* Speedblade drops two Escutcheons on the bar
[Ratshoot] But I wanna go hoooommmeee....
[Garmsian] ...
[Uplink] Da, me too.
[Ratshoot] Light 'nough?
* Garmsian orders a cheap wine
[Speedblade] [Bartender] Thank you, sir. *fixes the other drinks and delivers them*
* Garmsian also orders a some grape juice
* Speedblade hands Uplink one DWA and downs his own
* Hikari pays
[Uplink] Danke.
* Uplink looks at the drinks and swallows it in one gulp
* Uplink adjusts his glasses
* Ratshoot sniffs the glass and his eyes go crossed, falling off Speed's shoulder
* Speedblade throws out a die, rolling a 1
[Speedblade] GM: Roll a die, Uplink. Difficulty 4 to stay awake.
* Speedblade goes cross-eyes, then falls off of his barstool and to the floor
* Nocturne` motions over to Speed, 1"I'll take whatever he got."
* Uplink rolls a 2
* Ratshoot lands on his back with a thud
* Garmsian looks in his wine glass
* Garmsian drinks it
[Speedblade] [Bartender] Looks like your heavy-armored friend can't take his wine...
[Uplink] NRP: Let me redo that. I only have between 1 and 4
[Speedblade] NRP: Go ahead...
[Uplink] NRP: How high should I make it?
* Speedblade snores
* Garmsian then drinks his juice
[Speedblade] NRP: Oops. 1d6.
* Uplink rolls a 4
* Speedblade rolls over in his unconscious state
* Garmsian walks up to the barkeep
* Uplink sits there, depressed still
* Speedblade moans and sits up
[Nocturne`] Barkeep, I'll have whatever the unconsious guy got?
[Garmsian] Give me the strongest stuff...Hahahaha!
[Speedblade] Man, that's stronge...
[Speedblade] [Bartender] Death Wishes all around!
[Speedblade] [Bartender] *passes them out*
* Nocturne` downs the drink
* Uplink sighs depressed
* Nocturne` rolls a 6 sided die: 1
* Uplink looks utterly miserible
* Nocturne` passes over, and out, a moment later.
[Speedblade] ...Next time we find a pub, we stay away from Death Wish...
* Uplink doesn't seem effected
[Uplink] - 9[The_Hits_-_Garth_Brooks_-_The_Dance.mp39] - 9[2.53mb 3m41s 96kbps 44khz joint stereo9]
* Speedblade stands, totally sober
[Speedblade] Man! I wanted at least a LITTLE buzz...
[Speedblade] [Bartender] *looks at Speedblade strangely* A... buzz?
[Speedblade] ...Never mind.
* Speedblade looks at the exit
* Ratshoot twitches on the floor
[Speedblade] As soon as Nocturne wakes up, I think we should hit the road...
* Uplink grabs Rat and cuddles him
* Ratshoot twitches some more
*** Garmsian has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Uplink keeps sitting in his same depressed position, holding Rat like one would a doll
[Speedblade] [Civilian] ...olding the town captive! Seems like they're after something...
[Speedblade] ...Eh? *listens in*
* Ratshoot comes around, the slashes at Uplink's face
[Uplink] EEK!
* Uplink jerks head back in time to miss
[Ratshoot] Get offa me, ya dumb Russian bear!
[Speedblade] [Civilian 2] They supposedly have some kind of scrolls in that town...
[Uplink] Gumbo stew attack
[Ratshoot] I'll gumbo stew ya!
* Uplink lets Rat go
* Speedblade snags the location from the civilains
* Ratshoot smacks Uplink across the face a few times with his tail
[Speedblade] We have us something to do, boys. *Nocturne wakes up*
[Uplink] OW!
* Uplink rubs face, sulking even more
[Speedblade] OTHER than start a bar brawl...
* Nocturne` stands and rubs his head.
* Uplink lapses into an even further depressed state
[Hikari] What can we do?
[Speedblade] Apparently, some group is holding a town near here under seige...
[Speedblade] I say, since we can't do anything else, that we go check it out.
[Ratshoot] ...Oh goodie...
* Speedblade walks out of the pub, whistling
[Speedblade] SESSION ENDS
