<DeathStar> Location: The Cartel
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus is tied up over an open flame, upside down so his face is near the flames. Billy hums a child's tune.
* Alicia is now known as Terra
* Marcus` widens his eyes, sweat poring down his face. "B...b...billy. Please stop this."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Why? We're playing cowboys and Indians.
<Marcus`> Well you caught me. You won. You can let me down now and we can play another game.
<DeathStar> <Billy> We must finish the game. 6* She makes the fire bigger.
* Marcus` shrieks slightly, wriggling. "N...no, we don't have to. You won. You're the winner. Please let me down...we can ummm...do something else.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Like?
<Marcus`> I uhhh...well...we could play cops and robbers.
<DeathStar> <Billy> I see. 6* She pulls out a magnum pistol and aims it at Marcus' head.
<Dias> <Shiva> Such intersting games you're playing while your friends are risking their lives...6She steps out of the shadows.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "WAIT a minute." His eyes flick toward Shiva.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy prepares to shoot the evil robber Marcus
<Marcus`> Billy....*he eyes move back to her* You and I are the policeman. We must hunt down the robbers together. A policeman has to have a partner you know.
<Dias> 6Shiva just looks at Marcus, eyeing him. 1"You chose to stay and play...cops and robbers was it? With a child.
<DeathStar> <Billy> I work alone.
<Marcus`> Ok I don't want to play anymore. I promise we can play later if you just please let me down now. *he glances at Shiva again* I didn't choose to stay.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy fires at Marcus' head and just barely misses it
<Dias> <Shiva> Details...Do you still plan on joining them? 6She leans against a building.
* Marcus` widens his eyes and shrieks, wriggling even more now. "Ok. I don't want to play anymore. I'm done. You win."
<DeathStar> <Billy> I win?
<Marcus`> Yeah. I'll give you your prize if you let me down.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Well, if I win, I'll just end the game. 6* She aims dead on at his forehead
<Marcus`> Then we wont get to play later!
<Dias> Shiva just watches the two.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy cocks back the trigger slowly.
<Marcus`> Wait. If you don't kill me i'll....i'll...buy you a toy.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy gets ready to fire.
<Marcus`> Please stop her Shiva. Please. *he is sweating greatly and is very pale at this point, despite the blood that has rushed to his head*
<Dias> <Shiva> Hmmm....6She looks over at Billy. 1"How much to spare this one's life?
<DeathStar> <Billy> Hmmm. Whatcha got?
<Dias> 6Shiva just smirks. 1"What ya need?"
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shrugs.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Can you marry us?! 6She beams like a little child.
* Marcus` eye's dart between the two, he is tense and very afraid right now.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "What!?"
<Dias> <Shiva> Interesting....6She glanecs at Marcus.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy looks at Marcus as well, her black eyes peering at him
<Dias> <Shiva> I do have the power to marry, yes.
<Marcus`> I...Oh god. *if it would be able for him to go any more pale, he just did.*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy aims at his head. "Well?"
<Dias> <Shiva> Than it shall be done.
<Dias> <Shiva> His life, for his hand in marriage.
<Marcus`> Please tell me this is a joke.
<Dias> 6Shiva moves over to Billy to shake on the deal.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shakes her hand
<Dias> <Shiva> If you will...6She motions her to stand next to him.
* Marcus` sighs. "I hate you both."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hops over to Shiva.
<DeathStar> *Marcus
<Dias> <Shiva> I'm a tight schedule so we'll do the abridged version. 6She looks at Billy. 1"Do you take Marcus to be your husband through sickness and death?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> Yes. Especially the last one if he ever cheats on me. 6She smiles happily like a little child, but her words seem very threatening
<Marcus`> .....
<Dias> <Shiva> 6She looks at Marcus. 1"And do you Marcus, take this woman's hand in marriage, through sickness and health?"
<DeathStar> 6* Billy looks at Marcus
<Marcus`> Health!? What happened to the death part?
<Dias> <Shiva> I have a feeling you'll be dead long before her.
<Marcus`> .....You're both joking right. This is a joke, right? You'll just let me down and we'll all have a big laugh about it...right? RIGHT!?
<DeathStar> 6* Billy looks annoyed now.
<Dias> 6Shiva looks at him, with a look that asks if she'd lie about something like this.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy holds up the magnum for Marcus to see, still looking annoyed.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "OK OK. FINE."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy beams again
<Dias> 6Shiva looks at Billy if that will suffice then see's her beam. 1"I now pronounce you legally married. You may kiss the bride."
<Marcus`> WHAT!?
<DeathStar> 6* Billy leans over the flames for Marcus to kiss her
<Marcus`> SHE'S FOUR! I can't kiss her!
<DeathStar> 6* Billy doens't move her lips, but presses the gun against his stomach
<Dias> <Shiva> She also has a magnum pointed at your stomach.
<Dias> 6Shiva looks down at her datapad, typing on it. Seconds later a slip prints out.
<Marcus`> Oh my god...i'm going to burn in hell....*he kisses her quickly on the lips and frowns, still handing upside down*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy beams happily.
<Marcus`> You were saying something about catching up to the others?
<Dias> <Shiva> Amazing kiss...6She say's dryly and hands Billy the official documents for the marriage.
<Dias> <Shiva> Yes, I've secured another way for you and...Where is the other?
<DeathStar> 6* Billy pockets the information, then cuts Marcus down.
<Marcus`> Terra? I dunno honestly...sure coulda used her help here...*he flails a bit as he falls, quickly jumping up and out of the fire, knocking a flame out on his shoulder*
<DeathStar> <Billy> So, where shall we go on our honeymoon?
<Marcus`> We're going to meet up with the others and help them out.
<DeathStar> <Billy> That doesn't so romantic.
* Terra heads in, looking over the scene. "Did I miss something?"
<DeathStar> 6* Billy pouts.
<Dias> <Shiva> Irrevelevant now. The deal is this, I will sell you to a Burlesque House as a male prositute on the home planet.
<DeathStar> <Billy> We're married, Terra. 6* She giggles. "When am I getting my ring, Marcy?"
<Dias> <Shiva> They apparently have a thing for human males right now....
* Terra just... blinks... in shock
<Marcus`> Marcy!? *he sighs and holds his temple, then glances to Shiva quickly* ...
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hugs Marcus' leg. "Try to be gentle with me tonight. You'll be my first."
<Terra> "I should hope so..."
* Marcus` widens his eyes and jumps back, eyeing Billy in terror.
<Dias> Shiva coughs rather loudly. 1"That is the only deal that I could make to get you to their planet right away.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy smiles at Marcus
* Marcus` slowly creeps over to hide behind Shiva. "Yeah ok, i'll be a whore."
<Terra> "... yeah, I had it easy after all..."
<Dias> <Shiva> Good. 6She eyes Terra. 1"You still plan on joining with?"
<Terra> "I'm not going to be a prostitute.."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Wait, I own Marcus. Only I can decide if he's going to be a prostitute.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy crosses his arms with a child's stubbornity
<Marcus`> You don't own me!
<Terra> "It's fine you making Marcus one, but..."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Dias sold you to me, and you just married me.
<Dias> <Shiva> They're not looking for human female prostitues. You'll be going over as a Merchant, dropping off him."
<Terra> "... though I can't say I really like that idea either."
<Marcus`> Dias never owned me either!
<Terra> *uncertainly* "... well, I guess that's alright..."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy aims the magnum at Marcus. "Are you sure?"
<Terra> "... don't do that."
<Marcus`> YES! *he ducks back behind Shiva*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy motions for Shiva to move.
<Dias> 6Shiva looks at Terra and just shakes his head.
<Dias> Shiva nods to Billy and side steps.
* Marcus` steps with Shiva.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shoots Marcus in the foot as he steps
* Marcus` howls in pain and falls over holding his foot.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Are you still sure?
<Dias> 6Shiva stands there patiently, her face not showing that this bothers her at all.
<Marcus`> You don't own me. We are supposed to comprimise and reach agreements together. *he says through gritted teeth*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy aims at his hand.
<Marcus`> Fine whatever. Just leave me alone. Jesus christ.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy beams, then looks at Shiva. "What do I get out of this deal?"
<Dias> <Shiva> Now that that is settled, let us get down to business Billy. I'll will trade him for an all-expense paid honeymoon to the planet Jarivan.
* Terra eyes Billy
<DeathStar> <Billy> Done!
<DeathStar> 6* Billy bounces with joy.
<Dias> Shiva reaches her hand out to shake on it
* Marcus` sighs. "I hope to god you die a painful, painful death Shiva.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shakes it, then waves at Marcus. "Have fun whoring yourself out, honey."
* Marcus` waves back. "Yeah. It'll be great."
<Terra> "..."
<Dias> Shiva turns to look at Marcus and Terra. 1"Now that we're settled. Let us go." 6She turns and walks off.
<DeathStar> -END COMEDY SECTION-
<DeathStar> Stardate: Several, several hours later
<DeathStar> Location: Tsi'vaos
<DeathStar> 6* Darien, Dias, Zephyr, and Em are surrounded by angry Tsivrixsh
* Dias blinks then looks over at Zephyr. 1"They look angry."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh strike out, hitting Em in the head and knocking her out.
<Dias> ...Yep, angry...
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr's hand trembles, and she forms her guns, going for blood. Darien's eyes widen at her .
* Dias steps in front of Zephyr. 1"Now now guys, I'm sure we can settle this honorably."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh punch at Dias' head.
* Dias leans back, letting the punch sail over his head, he snaps his head back up and forward, aiming to headbutt the tsiv.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien kicks a Tsivrixhs in the kneecap, then judo throws him.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh back away at the humans, though they try to do it as honorably as they can
<Dias> See? I thought we could handle this honorably.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances around. "Guess humans don't walk around very freely he---" 6He stops in mid-sentence
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr bends down to pick up Em.
* Dias glances over at Darien. 1"....very freely he...?
<DeathStar> 6* DArien watches Marcus being led around by Terra - only, Marcus is wearing a black speedo and a neck chain with spikes on his neck, with a rope attached to the chain to Terra's hand
<DeathStar> <Darien> I...why..wuh?
* Dias slowly turns around to look at what Darien is looking at, his jaw drops, a look on his face as if he just won the lottery.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares, her mouth dropped open.
* Marcus` has his head down, a frown on his face.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches himself.
<Dias> I...I....I....6He suddenly starts laughing so hard, he's forced down to his knees as he arms wrap around his stomach in pain.
* Marcus` glances up quickly and sighs. "Oh great."
<Terra> "Well, that went smoothly enough."
<Marcus`> For you maybe...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Terra...? Marcus....?
<Terra> "Apart from the embarrassment, nothing bad happened at all!"
* Dias 's face turns a dark shade of red as tears streak down his face. He points at Marcus as if to say something then starts laughing again, this time falling onto his back
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr just keeps staring
<Terra> "Though... I hope Shiva wasn't serious about all that."
<Marcus`> Hey Darien. *he says, as Terra leads him over to them*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I didn't realize you two were into that.
* Terra heads over
<Terra> "... I'm not!"
* Dias begins folling from side to side as he continues to laugh uncontrollably.
<Dias> NRP: rolling
<DeathStar> <Darien> Whatever. Not very feminine.
<Marcus`> I'm a male whore. *he just notes*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I can see that, Marcus
<Marcus`> For the tsiv. *he adds on*
<Terra> "... I'm just supposed to be selling him... ugh, this is..."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr closes her, then opens it, then makes a strange little noise.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Right. Of course. Selling him to the Tsiv.
* Dias slowly rises, a straight face on. He looks over at Marcus.
<Terra> "I'm serious!"
<Marcus`> It was the only way Shiva could get us here quick enough.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And quickly you came.
* Dias snorts out short laughs, his hand covering his mouth.
<Terra> "Can we just get going?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks away.
* Terra looks very embarrassed
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm not going anywhere with you two looking like that.
* Marcus` narrows his eyes. "What's so funny anyway?" he glances down at himself.
* Dias suddenly burts out laughing again, no longer able to hold it in anymore. He just points at Marcus as he laughs.
<Marcus`> ....Well...do you have some pants I can put on?
<Terra> "There's nothing wrong with the way I'm dressed..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Only Zephyr keeps the extra clothes.
<Dias> Even the assless chaps! .6He points again, this time slapping his knees.
<Terra> "Just... find Marcus something that doesn't make him look like... that."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose, then makes a strangled laugh sound.
<Marcus`> Was that a laugh? Did DARIEN just laugh?
* Dias suddenly stops and looks at Zephyr then at Darien then at Marcus. 1"Oh please god, not her clothes. I sear to god I'll die from laughter.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just laughs.
<Terra> "..."
<Marcus`> You'll die!? Hand em over Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know. They might be an improvement, MArcus. 6He holds his side.
* Dias starts laughing again, moving his arm onto Darien's shoulder to brace himself up.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hands over her tiny white shorts and pink shirt to Marcus
* Dias begins making stiffled laughters as he watches Marcus take the clothes
<DeathStar> 6* Darien laughs harder. "I love the neck chain. Very biker."
* Marcus` puts them on the best he can. "I think the chain is pretty badass thank you very much!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You would, "Killer". 
<Marcus`> Least the tsiv will be laughing too hard to fight back. *he says with a shrug*
<Dias> Oh my god...6He grabs his stomach from the pain of laughing so much. I think I ruptured a spleen.
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus is now wearing tight little white shirts, and a pink shirt that shows his belly button. Zephyr stares, still saying nothing.
* Marcus` glances down at himself. "Well now. I don't look gay at all." He says sarcastically.
<Dias> All we need is a water hose and Daisy here can have a show.
<Terra> "At least you have a beard."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... 6* Clears her throat. "You look...um...unique, Marcu."
* Marcus` smirks and laughs a little at that one. "Daisy...that was a good one."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh stare at the crazy humans.
<Marcus`> It's alright Zeph. I look stupid, you can laugh too if you want.
<Dias> Oh my god, his ass cheeks are hanging out of the shorts!
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shakes her head, shifting Em in her hands.
<Terra> *embarrassedly* "Lets just go, okay?"
<Marcus`> They are? *he turns so his but is facing Dias and he bends over to try and get a better look* I don't think they are.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm personally afraid for my life walking around with him
<Terra> "Seriously?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Seriously.
* Dias just laughs in response. 1"It's like a little white thong."
<Marcus`> They kinda chaff a bit. *he says with a frown, twisting in his place*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances over the black sky, black industrial type city. This is hell. And Marcus' colors stand out like a spotlight
* Terra giggles, despite herself
<Marcus`> Want me to go back to the slave suit?
<Dias> Having fun flossing? 6He shakes his head, still laughing slightly
<DeathStar> <Darien> What is this? A dress show?
<Terra> "Hell no."
<Marcus`> Well I don't want to stand out.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't think anything you could do would prevent that, Marcus.
<Marcus`> I could cover myself in mud or something.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose. "I thought Billy was suppose to watch him."
* Dias beigns laughing less and less, his eyes red from the tears. 1"We should get going..."
<Terra> "... bad idea, really."
* Marcus` makes a face at Billy's name.
<Marcus`> ....she and Shiva made a deal. That's how I got here.
<DeathStar> <Darien> A deal? What was the deal?
<Marcus`> ...I'd rather not talk about it.
<Dias> Oh god...6Dias suddenly perks up as if this is gonna be good.
<DeathStar> <Darien> No, no, I have to know.
<Terra> "... for a honeymoon."
<DeathStar> <Darien> A honemyoon? Between Marcus and Shiva?
<Dias> Honeymoon...With Her?
* Terra laughs
<Marcus`> ....Billy.
* Dias jaw suddenly drops.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wait. --- You--
<Terra> "Yeah, you WISH it was Shiva."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at Marcus, a twitch
<Marcus`> SHE HAD A GUN AIMED AT MY HEAD!
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're going on a honeymoon with a four year old?!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose again.
<Terra> "Maybe she'll forget about it by tomorrow."
<Dias> You old dog you! He pats Marcus on the back.
<Marcus`> Well it was either that or death.
<Marcus`> Look she shot my foot cause I started to refuse. *he holds up his bandaged foot*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks away, deciding to focus on Em
<DeathStar> <Darien> Right, right. You couldn't beat a four year old. I understand.
<Marcus`> You and I both know she's not some ordinary four year old.
<Terra> "Not when tied up he couldn't."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're big enough to punt her across the room.
<Dias> I don't know where to go with this...Do I make pedophile jokes or do I joke that he couldn't beat up a 4 year old...
<Marcus`> I was hanging upsidedown, tied up, over a fire.
<Marcus`> I couldn't do much.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You let yourself get tied up. Marcus...why are you here?
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're not cut out for this.
<Marcus`> Way to tell me now!
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think you're string of failures would have taught you that.
<DeathStar> *your
<Marcus`> I've only failed twice really.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You blew yourself up on a Dark Ship, you get beat up by a four year, you got brigged by Tsivrixsh, you got sold into slavery.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I honestly can't think of any other way you could fail.
<Marcus`> Well....so?
<Dias> He probably would've failed at being a whore, and as a husband. 6He chimes in
<DeathStar> <Darien> If he fails at the latter, something tells me he'll be dead.
<Terra> "..."
<Terra> "Can we just go?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes his head at Marcus, clearly frustrated with the man
<Marcus`> Oh excuse me for wanting to help.
<DeathStar> <Darien> We're all meant to do things. Fighting is something you aren't meant to do.
<Terra> "... yeah..."
<Marcus`> Oh ok, well let me just take the next ship off the planet. *he says, waving his hand*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Once we get you back home, I want you to stay there. And out of military operations. Clear?
<Marcus`> Uh sure. Since you're totally my boss and everything.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah. I'm a General. And if you're going on these missions, I am your boss
<Terra> "Well... he could do catering..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> But be sure to know that your tour of duty is over.
* Dias rubs his head as if he has a headache from laughing so hard
<DeathStar> <Darien> Was Carmichael thinking.
<DeathStar> 6*What
<Marcus`> Great. I come to help and I get yelled at.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You don't help. That's my point.
<Terra> "We needed everyone we could get..."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stays out of this conversation, very unsubtly, as she puts a wet rag on Em's forehead
<Marcus`> I helped alot back on that Dark Ship. I may have screwed up and got myself hurt, but I helped Zephyr alot before then.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up as the Tsivrixsh military officals arrive.
<DeathStar> <Darien> About time.
<Dias> Wait...we wanted to get caught?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Did you plan to walk up the palace steps and speak with the Empeorr?
<Dias> ...Well...yeah.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Remind me to make sure I never work with you again. 6He pinches his nose.
<Terra> "... some plan this was."
<Dias> I'm only good at punching things, plans aren't my...thing
<DeathStar> 6* A female Tsivrixsh leads the officals. Her long black hair is just past her shoulders, and her red eyes burn with intensity. Darien walks over to her, and begins to speak in Tsivrixsh. The officals look surprised, and the woman speaks back.
* Marcus` stares.
<Dias> Oh he's good...
<DeathStar> 6* They continue to speak, with Darien gesturing at the others. The female eyes them, and it doesn't feel friendly.
* Terra listens
* Marcus` looks up at the sky.
* Dias scratches his chin
<DeathStar> 6* Darien motions at Marcus, and all the Tsivrixsh but the woman laugh.
* Marcus` looks back at them. "What did he say!? What's so funny?"
<Terra> "... you don't want to know."
<Dias> I think he said you're a whore.
<Marcus`> Well that's what my card says.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, and lifts up his arms. His wrists are handcuffed. The male Tsivrixsh move over with more cuffs toward the others.
* Dias shrugs and holds his hands out
<DeathStar> 6* Dias is cuffed.
* Marcus` stares and holds his hands out too.
<Terra> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh who cuffs Marcus laughs at him and points at his spike collar, saying something in Tsivrixsh and laughs more.
<DeathStar> 6* A Tsivrixsh approaches Terra expectantly.
<Terra> "I'm not under arrest too, am I?"
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh just stares and waits.
* Terra sighs, and holds her hands out
<DeathStar> 6* He cuffs Terra. One approaches Zephyr, but she lifts up Em, eyeing him. The Tsivrixsh studies her puny size, says something that could be "Runt" and walks off, not cuffing her. The woman nods, says something in Tsivrixsh, and begins to march away
<DeathStar> <Darien> Follow her. 6 He tells the others, then walks after the woman.
* Dias follows after the woman, he glances down at his cuffs
* Marcus` follows, frowning and glancing around.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks along, looking relaxed. Zephyr carried Em, looking cold.
* Terra follows
<DeathStar> 6* As in mean
* Dias slides his hands through his hair
<Marcus`> So....I rushed here to get arrested? Awesome.
<DeathStar> 6* The group is led along the city, toward what appears to be a more aristrocratic area, and in in the distance, a massive palace can be seen
<DeathStar> <Darien> ...
<Dias> Oh but it was soooo worht it
<Terra> "I can think of worse places to be.."
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh eye them talking, but the woman never does.
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
<Marcus`> Yeah i'd rather be here than with Billy...
* Dias rubs his nose, glancing at the womans but briefly
<DeathStar> 6* Darien remains quiet as the talk.
<DeathStar> 6* Dias is hit in the back of the head by one of the male Tsivrixsh, who yells at him in Tsivrixsh
<Dias> OWWW! 6He grabs his head, rubbing it furiously
<DeathStar> 6* The others stop, and the woman turns around, speaking in a sharp tone. The male Tsivrixsh grumbles, looking humbled, and steps away from Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose.
<Marcus`> ...
<Dias> That's better. 6He shakes his head.
<DeathStar> 6* They begin to move again.
<DeathStar> 6* They arrive at the 1,000 steps leading to the palace.
* Dias eyes the steps, then groans loudly.
<DeathStar> 6* Huge statues of Tsivrixsh can be seen on either side of the steps. They look big, brave, and strong.
<DeathStar> 6* A Tsivrixsh looks ready to strike Dias again.
* Dias then looks over at the statues and ooh's
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh relaxes
<DeathStar> 6* The group begins to walk up the stairs.
<DeathStar> 6* To get up the stairs, you must type Up 1,000 times. Good luck!
* Dias begins moving up the stairs, sighing slightly
* Dias types up 1,000 times
<Marcus`> Holy crap, i'll have an amazing ass after this walk.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh males eye Marcus
* Marcus` moves up the steps, not noticed the Tsiv's eyeing him.
<Terra> "... I can't believe you said that."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* After a long, periously journey up the steps, they arrive in the inside of the palace, where they are forced to sit on plush seats, and the woman walks off, leaving the 4 male Tsivrixsh watching them.
<Marcus`> You can't believe I said something sarcastically?
* Marcus` shifts in the plush seats. He makes a face.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh look angered at his disrespect for their seats.
* Terra sits in the plush seats herself, seeming comfortable
* Dias sits down in the seat, letting out a huge sigh of relief
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lays Em on the plush seats, making sure to watch her condition.
<Marcus`> Why do I have the pink chair?
<Dias> Because you have the pink shirt.
<Marcus`> I...Oh. Good point.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien remains perfectly relaxed.
<Marcus`> So ummmm. How about that weather?
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh eye Marcus, lifting their Xvashes.
* Dias 's head drops forward, as if he's asleep
<DeathStar> 6* Darien speaks calmly in Tsivrixsh, and the four relax.
<Marcus`> I....thanks Darien.
* Terra pulls out an English to Tsiv dictionary. Where did she get that, anyway?
<DeathStar> <Darien> You used a word that is similar in their language to "smell penis"
<DeathStar> 6* There is no such thing. Nice try.
* Terra notes to herself. Write one.
<Marcus`> You serious? Oh crap, that would have been bad.
<Terra> "I'm going to have to learn Tsiv."
* Dias rubs his nose as his body slumps, fully relaxed as if he's asleep.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It'll take a while. Depending on which version you want to learn.
* Ari[AWAY] is now known as Em`
<Terra> "Please tell me I don't have to learn them all..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know them all.
* Em` opens her eyes slowly, "...owww.... what hit me...?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're awake. That's good.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr removes the wet rag from Em's forehead.
<Terra> "Well, that's a little comforting..." *looks to Em* "You okay?"
<DeathStar> 6* The female Tsivrixsh steps back out, then barks something out. Darien nods, rising. "We've been allowed the honor of being in front of the Emperor. ... don't screw this up, Marcus. Dias.
* Dias 's head snaps up. 1"Huh?"
* Terra nods, just wishing it didn't have to be in chains
<Em`> "...I have a splitting headache."
<Marcus`> Uhh right. I'll keep my mouth shut then.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods. "We can wait out here, Em."
* Dias rubs his face and he looks at Darien as he stands up.
<Terra> "I guess I should come with... though I don't speak the language."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien bows to the female, and walks after her toward the throne room.
* Dias shrugs and then bows to the female, a smile on his face.
* Terra follows Darien, seeming a little overwhelmed
* Marcus` also bows, following Darien.
* Dias moves after the others then glances back and Zephyr and Em. 1"You girls coming?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't want Em moving yet. We'll wait out here.
* Em` eyes Dias a moment. She just woke up from a head injury.
* Dias blinks at Em then shrugs. 1"We'll make it quick." He turns and moves in
<DeathStar> 6* They are led into a luxurious throne room, with red drapes, and a gold throne. And sitting on it, with his head propped up by one hand, is a Tsivrixsh of great stature, despite being older than most they see. The female bows a bit in respect as she approaches, as does Darien.
* Dias eyes the two, then bows deeply/
* Marcus` glances around and also bows.
* Terra bows, trying to copy Darien's movements
<DeathStar> 6* The female approaches the Emperor a bit, then turns to face them. Darien nods once, then begins to speak in Tsivrixsh. The only words they can make out is "Xevil" and "Earth"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits calmly with Em, eyeing the Tsivrixsh watching them
* Em` curls up a little, wondering if anything is going to start going right again...
<DeathStar> <Emperor> I see. 6He says, speaking in Basic, never lifting his head from his hand. "So you're telling me that Xevil plans to remake the univserse and make himself a God?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pats her shoulder. Perhaps wondering that herself.
* Dias blinks in confusion.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes, m'lord.
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor chuckles a bit. "That is quite an outlandish story, Starr, Darien. Is it not, Shretrav?" 6 The female nods, speaking in Basic. "Yes, my liege."
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor eyes the others. "And do you, too, speak the same outlandish story?"
<Dias> I can vouch on that one....m'lord.
<Terra> "It is true, m'lord.."
<Dias> Little bugger's got all sorts of evil nefarious plans....6He blinks. "M'lord."
<DeathStar> <Emperor> Little bugger? What does that mean?
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> I believe he is calling Lord Xevil a bug.
<Dias> No, it's just slang for troublemaker.
<Dias> M'lord.
* Terra doesn't say what it means exactly
<DeathStar> <Darien> You see, m'lord, Xevil currently has 100 of your ships around Earth. And only Earth. A defeated planet. Under your rule. I must question why he would keep such a large fleet there.
* Marcus` just stands there quietly, not even opening his mouth afraid that he'll mess it up.
<Dias> Don't forget about that giant space fortress thing...6He motions to Darien
<DeathStar> <Darien> This power is much like the incident that occurred almost two years ago. When hyperspace tore at the universe. Xevil wishes to claim that power, and when he does, he will become Emperor, not only of your empire, but of the universe."
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor shifts in his seat, looking displeased.
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> Whether the human speaks the truth or not about this power, I have examined that Xevil has 100 ships at Earth. Despite his current orders. His amibitions are rather large, my Emperor.
<DeathStar> <Emperor> Assume that I believe you humans. Why come to me with this information? 6He motions at all of them to speak.
<Terra> "Because I do not believe you wish Xevil to assume absolute control any more than we do."
* Marcus` glances around at the others.
<DeathStar> <Emperor> And if I act against Xevil, what will you get out of this? 6He asks Darien, his red eyes shifting to him.
* Dias scratches his chin.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I want you to remove your forces from Earth and the Cartel, m'lord.
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor sits upright in his seat finally at Darien's boldness.
<DeathStar> <Emperor> You expet me to defeat Xevil and free your worlds? Outrageous. I should cut your tongue out, human.
* Dias blinks, he tilts his head at this type of trade, trying to figure it out
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds up his hand. "Consider what I can do for you first." 6The Emperor relaxes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Having to fight your own forces will cause, perhaps, a civil war. Xevil has many supports, does he not? He speaks the right words into the right ears. So, we will eliminate Xevil for you, with your aid in giving us the details of his battlestation, and destroy him. Once he is gone, your forces can move in and reclaim the fleet and say that Xevil outreached himself, and the Tsivrixsh are removing themselves from his shameful acts.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You eliminate the problem of Xevil, and we have our systems free. And, in addition, my lord, I suggest that we then start up a peaceful relationships. If you conquour the universe, who will you trade with? Who will get you new ideas from? Conquouring only leads men like Xevil to rise up, and bite your throat. You can begin a new era for your empire.
<Dias> And I can promise you I'll beat him good.
<DeathStar> <Emperor> ... This would be benefital for us, if an outside element removes Xevil from the board.
<DeathStar> <Emperor> Shretrav will aid you. Now go. 6He waves his hand.
<Terra> "Thankyou, m'lord."
* Xan|Gone has joined #taw
* Dias claps his cuff hands together eagerly. 1"My pleasure!"
* Terra stands, and turns to leave
* Marcus` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> 6* Darien bows, and steps out as Shretrav walks with them. Once back with Em and Zephyr, she orders the Tsivrixsh guards to free the team.
* Dias bows several times and moves after Darien
<Xan|Gone> *Marcus bows again and steps out with them quickly.
* Xan|Gone is now known as Marcus`
<DeathStar> <Shretrav> We will give you the layout of the battlestation, and move the third fleet after you. You will need to defeat Xevil quickly, so I can get control of his fleet.
<Dias> Psch, he'll drop faster than a dung beetle behind a Nrian Girslach.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I understand. 6* Shretrav pulls out a datachip, handing it to Darien. "You will need to use powerful explosive charges on the core if you are to succeed."
<DeathStar> 6* Shretrav eyes Dias, like he were a dung beetle.
* Dias hops from side to side, punching the air in anticipation
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, lets get back to Earth team. We'll stop at the Cartel to get the supplies.
<Dias> Well gee, we could've picked up Terra and Marcus on the way back.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... gee.
<DeathStar> 6* The spinning TAW logo can be see wearing a spike collar.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands in front of Shiva, getting the detonators for the Level A-Explosives.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy wears a little mini bridal outfit, hugging Marcus' leg.
* Terra helps get the detonators, grinning
* Dias stands there, biting his hand to keep himself from laughing at Marcus
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr seems more stiff, and cold
<DeathStar> <Darien> This is everything we need, Shiva?
<Dias> 6Shiva eyes Terra than looks at Darien. 1"You'll need life insurance if you plan on letting that one touch the detonators.
<DeathStar> <Darien> She won't be.
<Dias> She's even got a cute little bridal outfit...
<Dias> <Shiva> I think you're chances just rose 2%.
* Em` just stands around quietly
<Terra> "What?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright. We'll be splitting into two teams to do this mission. One team needs to distract Xevil long enough the second team can plant the charges. Then we all get the hell off that station.
<Dias> <Shiva> Adults are talking...6She waves Terra off.
<Terra> "Then why are you speaking?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Dias, myself, and Terra will be fighting Xevil. Zephyr, you'll be planting the explosives.
<Dias> I got Xevil.
* Marcus` sighs at Billy and tilts his head towards Shiva and Terra, he smirks.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods oce.
<Em`> "...what about me?"
<Dias> <Shiva> Because I'm an adult. 6She speaks slowly so she can understand.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You should probably stay here, Em.
* Terra laughs
<Terra> "That was funny!"
<Em`> "......"
<Terra> "No, what's the real reason?"
<Em`> "...you want me to what?
<Dias> Woh wait...6He looks at Zephyr. 1"You going to be able to do this by yourself? You know with your bloodlust thing going on?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You recently took a head injury, Em. You don't need to do this.
<Marcus`> Zephyr will need some backup Darien.
<Dias> Shiva ignores Terra and turns to look back at Darien, waiting for him to finish.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Zephyr's talented enough to do it herself. 6And he notes he doesn't want her fighting Xevil because of her bloodlust.

<Terra> "Darien, I'm not sure how much help I'm going to be."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just punch at Xevil. We don't need to kill him. Just distract him. Xevil's plans will end with his station. Likely, we can't beat Xevil.
<Marcus`> Well I think it would be better if Zephyr at least had someone to watch her back.
<Em`> "...I rather he die. Slowly."
<Dias> You're definetly not the one to do that. You can't even defend yourself from a four year old.
<Terra> "I'd volunteer for that, but I'm not sure people trust me."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Marcus, then waves his hand. "Fine, you watch Zephyr's back."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Em, clearly not wanting her to face Xevil because of her problem.
* Marcus` nods to Darien once, his eyes seem determined for once.
<Dias> <Shiva> The kid looks constipated...
<Em`> "He killed her... He TORTURED her... and you want me to stay on the SHIP?!"
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shivers with delight. "He's so determined."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And fighting him and getting yourself killed will make Hotaru feel better?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks down, clearly not happy about not fighting Xevil either. She bares her teeth.
<Dias> Em, I'll make sure he pays for it.
* Marcus` crosses his arms, ignoring Billy and Shiva.
* Terra nods, looking worried. "I'll do everything I can too."
* Em` turns and telekinetically pins Dias to the wall, "I'm not just a child! I can take care of myself!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll let you face him, Em, on one condition. When I say we run, you run with us. Xevil is a monster. We have to settle for blowing his station up. 6He says calmly, eyeing Dias.
* Dias eek's as he wiggles agianst the wall. 1"NO FAIR!"
* Marcus` arches a brow and eyes Dias. He smirks slightly. "Nice moves Em."
<Dias> Shiva just crosses her arms.
<Terra> "You're probably going to be more useful than me."
* Em` twitches... she doesn't like the idea of running away. Reluctantly, she releases Dias. "...fine."
* Terra nods
* Dias drops to his feet, he scrunches his face up at Em. 1"Cheater."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then it's settled. Besides, when Pope wakes up from his coma, he'll want to know you're alive, Em.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien knows he used a low blow, but he needs all the ammo he can get.
<Dias> If she doesn't listen, I'll just knock her ass out.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Zephyr, Marcus. Once you plant the explosives, radio us on the comm. Then we all get to the hanger, and we detonate the explosives.
<Marcus`> Alright.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods once.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then, as we use to say where I'm from. Lets hunt some Tsivrixshs.
<DeathStar> 6* The spinning TAW logo can be seen wearing a bridal gown
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pushes the controls forward of the latest in ship technology design from the Cartel, blasting through the Sol system toward Earth
* Terra takes deep breaths
<Dias> Jesus Christ, what the hell did you have to give for this thing?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, once the Cartel learned they would be freed from Tsvirixsh rule, they gladly loaned it to me. And, something about making sure Marcus goes on his honeymoon
<Terra> "Lucky you..."
* Dias stiffles a laughter
<Em`> "...generous."
<Marcus`> ....*he sits in his seat shaking his head*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr adjusts her battle armor, forming and unforming her guns.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Shiva said that under no circumstances should I hit this red button. 6He eyes it as the huge Tsivrixsh armada can be seen ahead.
* Marcus` pulls up a shotgun. "So I was snooping around the armory and I found this. I figure with the spread shot deal I can't miss." He explains to Zephyr.
* Dias places his hands down on Zephyr's shoulders, squeezing them lightly. 1"You gonna be safe, Zephs?
<Terra> "Then please don't."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'll be fine. You guys get to fight Xevil. 6She says darkly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien suddenly hits the red butto.
<Dias> I'll give him one for you, I promise that much.
<Terra> "... DAMN IT I SAID DON'T!"
<DeathStar> Song: The Battle in Orbit of Earth
<DeathStar> 6* The ship begins to transform, growing sleeker, and two giant engines appear in the back. The ship zooms forward at high speeds, crushing Darien back in his seat, his gums flapping.
<Terra> "... okay, I take it back, do! This is awesome!"
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh armada opens fire at them.
* Dias is suddenly launched away from behind Zephyr and slams into a wall, pinning againsti t
<DeathStar> 6* The shots can't even touch them as they zoom through the system.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts her foot so she doesn't fly.
<DeathStar> 6* The battlestation gets larger and larger as they approach
* Marcus` sinks into his seat, holding onto his shotgun tightly. "AEEEEEEEE" He manages to get out.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hits the red button, but it doesn't reform back to normal. "Uh oh."
* Dias slides down the wall and he shakes his head. 1"Now that was awesome..."
<DeathStar> 6* The battlestation opens fire, trying to hit htem, but they just fly at it like a supersonic ball.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hits it again and again
* Em` holds on. "...maybe there was a reason she said not to use it?!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Must not be finished.
<Terra> "... you CAN pilot it like this, I hope?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Sure. It's stopping it that's the problem.
* Terra looks ready to take over if Darien says no
<Terra> "... okay... do your best..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien zooms at the station at high speeds, unable to deccelarate.
* Dias moves back over to Zephyr. 1"Look at it this way, while we get to beat him up, you get to blow him up."
<DeathStar> 6* The ship flies into the hanger, Darien cuts all power, and it suddenly skids along the hanger, crushing things and people.
<DeathStar> 6* A horrible grating sound is heard as it smashes into some walls and finally stops.
* Em` falls to the ground, "...oww."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I recommend we don't use the red button again.
* Marcus` makes a face. "Ohhhh I think the cartel are gonna be pissed."
* Dias tumbles around, ending up face down
<Terra> "Can we even fly it again?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> We'll see.
<Marcus`> Let's hope so.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs the pack of explosives and the detonator.
<Terra> "If it could actually decelerate, I'd love the happy red button, but right now, he is not your friend."
* Dias stands up slowly, shaking his head
<DeathStar> 6* They can hear alarms from the station.
* Terra gets out of her seat, seemingly... high?
<DeathStar> <Darien> We need to move now. Everyone has a map on their datapad. Lets go
* Dias eyes his datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* somehow, Dias has it upside down, despite it being a datapad
<DeathStar> 6* Darien runs to the back and lowers the ramp, leaping into the hanger.
* Terra eyes her datapad as she moves to the ramp
* Dias scratchies his chin. 1"Got it."
* Dias turns and moves after Darien.
* Marcus` stands and moves over to Zephyr. He glances at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr seems to be waiting
* Terra heads after Darien
<DeathStar> 6* Troops begin to pour into the hanger, firing at those who exit. Darien activates the energy sword, deflecting shots.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Go for the throne room! DEFEAT XEVIL! 6He shouts.
* Terra darts towards the exit, ducking under shots as she goes
<DeathStar> 6* Darien follows, then breaks into a run.
<Dias> DONE! 6He ducks low and sprints in behind after Terra
* Marcus` rubs his chin, holding the shotgun steady with the other hand. He tilts his head and looks into Zephyr's eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* The troops begin to follow them, exiting the hanger.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gets up and steps off the ship into the hanger, glancing around.
* Dias glances back at Darien and the troops behind them, from the look on his face, this is the most excitement he's seen in awhile.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien runs down the hallway, taking a left. "Well, I think we have their attention."
* Em` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Marcus` steps off after her, looking about cautiously.
* Ariel has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves quickly down another hallway.
<DeathStar> -End Zephyr/Marcus Scene-
<DeathStar> 6* As Darien moves, a wall comes down in front of them, blocking their way to the throne room.
* Dias slides into it, slamming hard. He stumbles back, rubbing his face.
<Dias> Gah, my fucking nose!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stops, ramming it with his shoulder.
* Ariel is now known as Em`
<Terra> "Does anyone have a way to get the wall out of our way?"
<DeathStar> 6* The troops round the corner, aiming their guns at the team, who has no where to run now.
<Terra> "... damn it. So much for THAT idea."
* Dias looks back then curses. 1"Ahhh fuck diddly doo.
<Terra> "This just isn't my bloody day."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Dias! Tsivrixsh! Attack, boy!
* Em` eyes the soldiers. "...um... don't shoot?" She trys to apply a small amount of telekinesis to the door to see if it's locked, or just held down by gravity.
<Dias> PARLAY! 6He screams out.
<DeathStar> 6* Gravity
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Why does this feel familiar.
<Terra> "Not my fault."
* Terra looks for some way to get the door OPEN
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh open fire. Darien tries to deflect shots, but no way he can do all.
* Dias digs through his pockets and pulls out a ball with a smiley face on it. He tosses it down at them.
<DeathStar> 6* Dias is shot in the arm
* Em` starts to lift the door as Darien is providing some cover.
<Dias> GAH! 6Grabs his arm, wincing in pain.
<DeathStar> 6* The wall lifts upward 2 feet.
<Dias> 6The ball rolls towarsd the Tsiv.
<DeathStar> 6* Terra is nicked in her metal arm. Thank God for metal.
<Terra> "Ahhh!"
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh don't notice Mr. Smiley.
* Terra ducks low, trying to roll under the door
<Em`> Strife> *isn't happy. Grr. Grr.*
<Dias> 6It's eyes suddenly light up then explode.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh are hurled backwards.
<Terra> <Are you okay...?>
<DeathStar> 6* Darien drops and rolls under.
* Dias smiles at Darien then turns and dashes towards the wall, leaping under it and sliding.
* Em` moves under the door last... then realizing that she could have went first and it wouldn't have made a difference.
<DeathStar> 6* As they reach the other side, ten more Tsivrixsh are on the other side, aiming guns at them.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ....!
<Dias> Ahhh fuck sticks.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Do another ball!
* Dias quickly pats his pockets than pulls out a sad face ball and tosses it towards them.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ...
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh glance down.
<DeathStar> 6* One tries to kick it back.
* Dias it explodes
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is flung back into the wall, and the Tsivrixsh are flung the opposite way.
* Terra rubs her arm, looking down the passageway
<DeathStar> 6* The passage is clear - with charred bodies.
* Dias slams into the wall, huffing. 1"Bah...timer must be off..."
* Em` is knocked over by Darien being sent back
<DeathStar> 6* Darien doesn't cop a feel.
* Em` is glad.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I hate bombs.
<DeathStar> -End Darien Scene-
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves through the black hallways with their strange green lights in the walls. The sound of an alarm still can be heard.
* Marcus` moves after her, his eyes flick around them as the do, trying to keep attention toward their rear so they can't be flanked.
<DeathStar> 6* As they pass an open passage to another hallway, a Tsivrixsh leaps out and slams Marcus into a wall.
<DeathStar> 6* He lifts Marcus up, knocking his shotgun away.
* Marcus` is slammed into the wall and lifted up, his kicks up for the Tsiv's groin.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh just grins, then headbutts Marcus.
* Marcus` snaps back from the headbutt, blood moving down his nose. He spits the blood into the eyes of the Tsiv.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh roars and slams Marcus into the wall again, when a shot is heard and Marcus is dropped.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh hits the ground, missing a leg. He tries to get up, but can't.
* Marcus` lands on his feet and glances at the Tsiv, then Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at the helpless Tsivrixsh, holding a beam cannon in her hand. She aims at his head and fires again, removing it for him. "Keep your hand on your weapon from now on."
* Marcus` picks up his shotgun and glances at Zephyr again. "....yeah..." He steps over the Tsiv and moves towards Zeph.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lets the gun vanish back into handguns, then moves forward again.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stops at an elevator, and hits the button to summon it.
<Marcus`> So this bloodlust thing. How's that working out?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm only killing monsters.
<Marcus`> Most of them are soldiers following orders. Xevil, however. That's a monster.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> They're all monsters.
<DeathStar> 6* She says it in a calm voice
<DeathStar> 6* Ten Tsivrixsh come running up the hallway, aiming at them, since they have no escape method now.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances over her shoulder.
<Marcus`> Alright. They're all monsters. *he says with a shrug. He notices the Tsiv and widens his eyes, turning to aim his shotgun at them* Not good. Not good. *he fires at them, though it would probably only hamper them, not stop any of them.*
* Seraphna has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)

<DeathStar> 6* Darien locks blades with a Tsivrixsh Ninja. "What the hell is this?!"
<Dias> 6Dias ducks under a blade. 1"I'd say it's Ninjas."
<DeathStar> 6* Five Tsivrixsh Ninjas are attacking them. One slices at Terra. One kicks at Em
<DeathStar> <Darien> I can see that. But that's an Earth based cultural thing.
* Terra ducks under the slice, kicking at the Tsiv's leg
* Dias spins and twists inside, throwing his elbow backwards into the Ninja's head.
<Terra> "Five ninjas. Lucky. If it had been just one, we'd be doomed."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien parries another sword, and pushes back against his ninja
<Dias> Apparently it's not that Earth based.
<DeathStar> 6* The ninja is kicked in the leg by Terra. He throws a ninja star at her.
* Terra moves to try to avoid the star
* Em` is kicked, falling back. Bloody ninjas. She trys to shoot it from the ground.

<DeathStar> 6* The ninja is punched and goes flying.
* Dias dusts his hands off and gives Darien a thumbs up.
<DeathStar> 6* Only Em's ninja remains. It is doing ninja attacks on her.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs, and gives him a thumbs up back. Someone has to be the substitute John.

* Terra moves to help Em with her ninja also
<DeathStar> 6* Em's ninja eyes the two approaching.

* Terra does a thumbs up at Darien
<Terra> "I won, didn't I?"
<DeathStar> 6* The Mech Robot flails it's legs.
<Dias> GAH! You could've killed us!
<Terra> "I was being careful!"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds out his hands. "The rest of your grenades, please."

<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the nude Em inside the giant Tsivrixsh homeworld room
<DeathStar> <Darien> What is this?

<DeathStar> 6* A naked Darien appears, rubbing his chest seductively
<DeathStar> 6 *Darien snaps his head at Dias.
<Terra> "..."
<Em`> "...he... WILL... die."
* Dias suddenly looks away. 1"we should really get going."
<DeathStar> -End Darien Scene-
<DeathStar> 6* The tentacles are dead.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> That was an inventive way to beat it; using your body as a lure.
<Marcus`> I...well...yeah...That was totally the plan...*he coughs*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> How's your, uh, butt?
<DeathStar> -End Marcus Scene-
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the doors to the throne room.
<Terra> "We're finally here..."
<Dias> And here we are...6He tugs at his collar.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks around, as if wondering how they got here so fast.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses. "You know, I oddly though if I waited long enough, we'd be inside fighting Xevil already
<Terra> "Yeah, really?"
<Terra> "Everyone ready?"
* Em` looks at Terra oddly.
<Dias> Oh yeah. 6He claps his hands together eagerly
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright. Open the doors.
* Dias pushes the doors open
* Terra opens the doors
<DeathStar> 6* The throne room is much like it was before, with Xevil sitting on his dark throne.
* Em` has an odd sense of deja vu
<Dias> Hey we're back, hope you didn't miss us.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil sits there boredly . "So you finally decided to come back to die."
<Dias> Something like that.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Where is your little dragoon whore, boy?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps forward. "Xevil."
<DeathStar> <Xevil> ... Darien Starr. No...wait. DS. 6He stands up. "Now this is richly delightful."
* Em` has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
* Ariel has joined #taw
<Dias> Oh ho ho. Whore, eh?
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil thrusts his hand back, making his cape flap. "So, the big human himself has come to fight me. Surely you know you cannot beat me."
* Ariel is now known as Em`
<Dias> That's where you're wrong Xevil.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Is that so? And what do you believe you can do?
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Last time I saw you, you had your leg removed.
<Dias> Yeah, I wasn't ready last time.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Did you do some intense training in two times normal Earth gravity since then? 6He barks out a laugh
<Dias> ...Well yeah.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns on his saber.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> How predictably sad.
<Terra> "That works?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Not really.
* Dias hops from side to side again.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Very well, boy. Come at me wiht everything you got.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> I'll bury you into the ground like I did John McCormick that day.
* Dias narrows his eyes this time.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil's lips curl into a smile.
<Terra> "Sadistic bastard..."
* Em` twitches. Wishing she could just shoot him... but it's like some force prevents him from dying so easily
* Dias suddenly hops forward and dashed in towards him.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil waits.
* Dias suddenly screeches to a halt and flips backwards, a red ball with a someone sticking their tongue at you rolls towards Xevil.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil waves his hand and the ball goes flying into Terra.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Your toys are pathetic.
* Dias kicks off and leaps at Xevil, spin kicking towards him.
* Terra dives aside
<Dias> 6It just bounces around like a red ball.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil catches Dias' leg, then punches him into the back, crippling him so he can't move. "And so, it's over, boy."
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil lifts Dias up into the air, bends his knee, and brings him down toward it
