Time Warriors. (Role-Play)

Mirage eschewed waiting, and asked her if she would delight him with a battle.
The two got ready for a fight.
Mirage shifted his gauntlets to his battle position, pulled his arm back a little, witht he tip of the blade pointing directly at the girl. The girl made no perceptible motion, but the atmosphere quickly frosted between them, feeling like a no man's land. With Audrey safely back, Mirage began feeling the air for a perfect place. When he found it, he moved with lightning speed and swung, his blade turning red hot until it caught on fire.

Mai saw the two men preparing for the battle, while one of them dashes forward to slash her, "Fire element?! Time Warrior powers?! But he's human... tch, of well, as if an attack of that level will do anything to me!", she then smiled, "Holy Enhancement!", her spear glows, then the center of her spear's handle and his blade clashes.

She grinned and says, "You're more weaker than I've imagined." .

'Sigh, these weirdos. Only thinking about their bloodlust.' Audrey put his shooting stance and removed the safety switch on the rifle. 'Killing a child it's not my style but I have to do something!'

As Mirage rushed forward tried to fight Mai, soon their weapon clashed. And on that split second, Audrey aimed to the blonde's leg and pulled the trigger.

*BANG. Loud sound echoed on the air. Surprised by the recoil, Audrey felt pain on his shoulder and falls down.

Grabbing his sword he looked at Eclair replying "Time Warriors can't regenerate their used energies like humans do." trying to manage his strength.

"To use our abilities we need to focus our mind into it. he spoke those words while searching into his backpack for a piece of paper

Finding the object he gives it to Eclair losing his formality due to energy focus."Read up. Basically its an contract in witch you give me the required energy that I lack."

Smiling at her he added "Don't worry Miss. Trading that resource wouldn't hinder your human capabilities."

"Seeing that we have almost the same goal we could combine our forces. So what do you say... partners?" he ended offering a handshake smiling with joy.

(Neostriker feel free to disturb us at any moment I think..)

Eclair speedily read through the contract, getting the basics. She placed the diary in her pocket after writing a quick entry about this momentous change of events. Turning her beautiful smile into something maniacal and bordering the realm of pure evil itself, she began to cackle rather loudly.

She continued to utter the word 'contract' for about 20 seconds, then got a grip of herself.

'Oh, winged one, you never cease to amuse me with your stories. Consider it done, my blood is yours.'

Mirage was surprised at the level of resistance he felt when their weapons clashed, but he didnt have long to dwell upon it. A loud bang resounded, and Mirage barely dodged the bullet.
"Dammit, Audrey, whose side are you on? You need the correct posture...and anyways, that won't do anything to her." Mirage shouted.
He thought for a second, and said one thing to Mai. "Guess I'll go with Plan B"
He turned, kicked the wall, flew in the air, and grabbed a small bag that smelled suspiciously like gasoline, threw it at Mai, then slashed it with his gauntlet right in front of hair, kicked the ground hard and smacked his head on the wall.

As their weapons were clashing, and both Mai the other man were pushing against each other with their weapons, a sound of gunshot echoed throughout the room, after looking at the other man behind the one with whom her weapon was sticking with, she slightly moved her leg, and the bullet hit the floor.

And then, the man suddenly went and did some ridiculous stunts, after which he threw a small bag at her and slashed it open, she then uttered, "Time leap. ", after which, she vanished from the both of their sights.

"Ouch!" Audrey felt down. 'This rifle recoil is huge!' He saw his first shot result, nothing much to be proud of. 'I should train myself from now on. This quest is a deathwish' Back to his shooting stance, he saw Mirage doing acrobatic stunts. 'First Ryuto, now Mirage. You guys got talent.'

As Mirage slashed the bag, the blonde silently whispered "Time Leap" and vanished. Mirage rolled on the floor, searching for his prey. Audrey quickly covered Mirage's back. "Heheheh, looks like we're out of her league. We better get out from here."

I walk into the house and notice our target along with another girl. I put on my best business smile and say, "[Hello, all people. Great honor to be in presence. I would like your body.]" Yun steps in and says, "[Okay, forget what he just said. His Japanese is terrible. I'll be the one talking, alright? First off, we're not here for trouble. We don't have to fight...]" Yun looks warily at the boy and girl holding their weapons. He then says, "[We can't answer any questions, but if you just listen to us, no one has to get hurt.]" while shifting to a position where he can draw his gun quickly.

Mirage looked about in confusion, realizing what she had done.
"Oy, Help me out here, she's gone time-wack on me!"
"I think not. I told you not to fight her...and I'm not strong enough. You got yourself into this mess, you get out of it."
Mirage groaned in frustration, and turned looking for Mai. When he saw her, he threw another bag of gunpowder, and fired his flaregun at the bag right in front of Mai, and waited for her to use her Time Powers again...

When Mai appeared again, he fired his flaregun at the bag of gunpowder that was in front of Mai, after which, she used the same power and to a spot where there was no bag or anything around her, all while the red haired girl were still under her arms, who had fallen unconscious due to her powers.

She raised her right arm, and thus, lifted up up lance, it glowed golden light, "Its over. Golden Execution of the Queen!", after which she pulled it down to the floor, when a yellow stream of bright energy. It goes past between two of the gentlemen, the flames disappears from one of the gentlemen's gauntlets. And his power deactivates. Suddenly, the room freezes, all the walls and everything else, excluding the people, gets frozen in ice, then the right wall of the room crushes down, and the Royal Knight appears, "Took you long enough, Charlotte.", says Mai.

((OOC: Its up to you two if you guys to describe/receive damages through my attack. Don't wanna forcibly say that it inflicted any damages, yet (I know I'm being king).))

Mirage pulled back in suprise as a golden flash caused his flame to lose its heat. He blinked for a second, and then everything in the room froze.
"Oh great, Ice? WTF? It just can't get worse than this..." thought Mirage, holding his chest as he felt as if he just hit a wall. He noticed a small gaping wound on his side. "Oh great. Lovely."
Just then, the wall came crashing down, and another one appeared.
"Dear lawd, as if one wasn't bad enough, i wasted too much time. OY, baka, help me out yeah?" thought Mirage.
"You don't stand a chance against two. Dammit, Not even against one, I told you not to get involved. Retreat as fast as possible."
"Bah, ridiculous!"

Mirage got out another bag, and shot his flaregun at it. During the resulting smokescreen, he activated the the boosters on his shoes and flew at Mai, the blade steady and ready to pierce.
"I'd better not miss this...or else that wall is going to hurt. Badly."

As the girl raises her right arm, yellow beam light blasted towards Mirage and Audrey. He felt blood coming from his shoulder. "Argh!" Audrey crouched down while holding the pain.

And then he saw it, the red blood, and brought him nearly unconscious. "Don't look at it Audrey, don't look." Audrey tried to hide his hemophobia again.

And suddenly, everything frozen in the dungeon. It stopped his bleeding, but that's not the important issue. 'Another Time Warrior has come.' Audrey managed to pull the trigger on the rifle at his bleeding left arm, caused the ice to broke.

'Woman? Charlotte? Is she our ally? Or...' Hiding his pain, he saw Mirage recklessly charged towards the blonde. Audrey tried to get to his shooting stance, but his blood on left arm disturbed his vision.

'I...can't...do anything... I can't pass out in this place...'

"What a bad mouth you have there... Time Warrior. " he spited those last words. "Neither to we.... But the fact that you cant answer any questions isn't on my liking.."he ended apologetic looking at his sword.

After asking permission to sit at the kitchen table he said"If you really don't want to resolve to violence we could talk through this.We just want answers.And there is a high probability that my partner and I will join you.".

"Isn't that right Eclair?"he asked the young lady.

As the man came towards her after jumping and trying to kick her, she stood still and made no movements, when suddenly Charlotte, a woman dressed as a knight, caught his leg with her left hand, and tossed him to the icy floor, "My, my, Charlotte, or should I call you, Royal Knight? You sure are as violent as ever on a battle huh? He was my plaything you know? But oh well, now that you're here, we should get going.", said Mai to Charlotte. She then replied, "And you're as sadistic as ever, making weak warriors as playthings, anyway, we really should get going, it seems that you're currently on the dungeon below Saint Marco Basilica.".

"Huh? Saint Marco Basilica? Hmm.... so that pathway from the basement of the orphanage leads to here? I see, that may make sense... Anyway, we're going, now.", said Mai, walking out through the path on which the wall was crushed, she found a staircase leading upwards, after taking a glance to the stair, she looked at the gentlemen, and then decided to move forward.

Mirage saw the other woman coming, and tried to move, but somethiing held him back. As he got thrown across the room, he couldn't help sputter in rage. That fizzed out though when he got hit on the head.

"DAMMIT I SMACKED MY HEAD ON A TABLE THERE YESTERDAY!"
After picking some of the juiciest and select swear words, he got up and looked around. The two were already going out.

Mirage wanted to attack again, but something pulled him back again.
"DON'T. I'll seriously get pissed."
After struggling uselessly, he finally managed to get up, picked up Audrey, and ran tyring to catch up.

Just as the two saw the the entrance to the dungeon, Mirage stopped abruptly. "What do you mean don't go out?" he shouted, seemingly to thin air.
"I mean what I say, don't go out yet."
"And why the hell not?"
"Because...I feel it...the presence of something that stings my very essence. It must be an Anti-time Weapon, one of the few things that can give you an edge. Go and get it."
Mirage grumbled angrily, but when he noticed Audrey staring at him, he blushed and dragged Audrey back down.
"There's something that is an absolute necessity down here," said Mirage.
The two searched the immense complex for many minutes, before Audrey finally noticed something. It was a gauntlet of some sort.
"Thats it, the AT weapon."
"Nice, so thats how it looks like?" responded Mirage.
"The shapes vary. At any rate, give it to your friend and lets bounce."
"Audrey? Why? He ain't a fighter, I am, i should get it!"
"You think you can use that? Anyways, give it to him, he needs it more than you."
REluctantly, Mirage handed over the gauntlets to Audrey. "Keep these...these will help you resist Time warriors. No questions? Ok GOOD, Lets go"

Mirage gave Audrey a weird looking gauntlet. 'What is this thing?' Audrey tried to speak but Mirage stopped him. Mirage's soliloquy was way too confusing so he didn't mind about it. He carried Audrey and tried to move again.

The blonde's words back to Audrey's mind again. How did Audrey's blindness got cured? And why now his parents worked for the organization? As Mirage carried Audrey in his shoulder, they managed to get out from the dungeon.

'Am I... injected by essence of Time Warrior so I can see with my eyes?' Audrey checked his injury, the blood didn't come out again.

"Mirage, put me down here. I'll rest here for a bit." Audrey sat down and saw the horrifying view of the Venice. "Take this," he tossed his cellphone to Mirage. "Contact me if you need help, I believe you want to chase that girl. I need to take my gears from hotel."

Mai walks out of Saint Marco Basilica, with the red haired girl still on her hands, about whom she explained everything to Charlotte.

They walked their way to a certain destination in which a helicopter were waiting for them - they boarded it and took off of Venice. It was past * PM by that time.

((OOC: Yay for short post! Lol.))

From the destruction of Crimson Roads who resided on Venice, Master was pleased, or so it seemed, Mai, who faked at working for the Crimson Road revealed to have been only spying. The Master's only words were, "Now that we've attained the powers of the Time Crest, I have interests on the petty organizations that opposes our goals, they are merely the pieces for the time war. Prepare the Time Freezing Machine.", a whole week has passed since then.

"Giovanni, you should start working on our little item don't you think?", said Misaki, at the research department, then Hughes spoke, "Hmm.... but we got three of the requirements so far right? The "key" from the groom has already been received, some of the powers from the crest has already been granted to the incomplete machine, then we got the ring of rifts from Singapore.", then Misaki again spoke, "Yeah, and now its Mr and Ms Giovannis needs to get us the fourth requirement. The item which can develop one into a Time Warrior usually if they tap on its powers.", she said when Giovanni's wife enters the room, and then continued, "then we need a corrupted feather as well, and also the Over-Storm Generator.".

"Yeah, and its something that she is gonna get her hands on, its in there of all places... sheesh!", said Misaki.

((OOC: Okay guys, time has been skipped by a week, just make up at the start of the post what you guys did on the week, I won't mind if you guys write up a wall of text for it, lol.))

Viktor followed the soldier for quite some time now. During this time, he noticed on how wrecked the entire base was, showing no sign of life of any kind, except himself and the private. He then was led to what seemed like the command center, which was a completely destroyed house with its roof that collapsed upon itself. The soldier then started digging through the piles of rubble. Wondering why he is so keen on this spot, Viktor asks,"Hey kid, why you digging here. Is this where these weapons you speak of are stashed at?"

"Um... yes.. but let me just check if they are still there..."

"No, I will come with you and see myself" Viktor insisted.
Not having a say in this conversation, the soldier then went on and finished in removing the rubble. After a few minutes have passed, there revealed a handle on the floor. He pulled on it, and suddenly a weapons case emerged from the ground. The soldier then went and dialed some numbers into the keyboard lock on the case. Viktor stood there wondering on what kind of weapon it was. Then the soldier laughed... "He he he, this should do. Now to test it~" After saying that the soldier quickly turned to Viktor and pointed a uniquely made revolver and tried to fire it. Viktor though reacted faster and shot him right in his head. 'click' 'bang' The soldier then dropped to the floor and laid there motionless. Viktor though, was unharmed. Wondering why the revolver made this soldier go crazy all of a sudden, Viktor then went up and took a look at it. "I wonder..." As soon as he touched it, the revolver then glowed brightly. "What the..." was all Viktor could say as the weapon was slowly syncing with him. Once the bright light had subsided, Viktor then found himself with the gun attached to his clothing through a chain.

"[The fuck??]"

Remembering on how the weapon failed to work earlier with the soldier, Viktor tried to take it off. After a few minutes of failing to remove it, Viktor gave up and decided to meet up with Mirage.
