"Gozu!" Nai shouts as the tank goes flying through the air. "I think they're all civilians!" he adds, making note of this crucial detail.
If he's making them do the dirty work... Damn it! We're just doing what he wants us to do! Destroying the human race and having the Earth start anew! This thought would actually telepathically be sent to Gozu.
Nai changes his approach to attacking the soldiers. As he attacks them, he actually hits them just hard enough to knock them unconscious for a long time. Screams from the soldiers are no longer heard as Nai works his way through the lasers, taking down the soldiers and knocking them unconscious.

Gozu nod his head this group does seem different. He can see a fear in their eyes that he hasn't seen in the previous waves. Gozu too just knocks them out as he makes his way through the massive group of soldiers.

Sakar has been watching Nai and Gozu's every move. Hearing Nai's civilian comment and now witnessing his less brutal approach to killing soldiers, as well as Gozu's similar approach, he then thinks to himself with a grim tone: Humph... It seems like they're not as stupid as I thought. There's no way I could convince these two warriors to join my cause. Very well then.
Sakar would then turn around. He presses a button, causing the whole base to continously flash red. He looks over to the side, where Roa is standing. He commands to her: "Roa. It is time. Take your time torturing these two warriors. I want to see them suffer...! But don't do anything stupid!"
All soldiers begin to retreat into their houses. Once no soldiers remain, the base no longer flashes red.

Roa nods at her master, then apparently vanishes.
In the room with Gozu and Nai, once all the soldiers had cleared out, ki blasts would fly at the lights, destroying them and casting darkness upon the place. Only two lights would remain, the two small yellow lights of Roa's eyes.

Seeing the base flash red and watching all the soldiers flee, Nai stops attacking. The lights die from the fired ki blasts. Nai is immediately in a fighting stance, and he looks around him.
He then sees two yellow lights... the eyes of Roa. Immediately, his muscles start tensing and shaking. So this... this is his bodyguard... Gozu would hear this thought as well. Nai is really nervous now. Feel her ki Gozu. It's stronger than the leader's!
He now stands straight up, holding his laser sword down to the side. The blade seems extra bright in the total darkness. He makes direct eye contact with the yellow eyes... and feels no further response in his body.

Gozu looks around as the base flashes red and then...darkness covers the room. Gozu gets in his fighting stance as he sees 2 glowing dots. Gozu hears Nai's thoughts and on a whim tries talking back. Thinking about Nai, Gozu will say Yeah....we gotta play this smart. I don't suppose you have a plan?

I suppose the only thing we can do right now is stick to each other's side and not split up. Last thing we want is this beast picking on just the one of us. The laser fades into the darkness. Nai puts the piece of metal into his sash.

Gozu nods his head though Nai can't see it. Agreed. Guess we gotta hope more people come. Nai it's an honor to fight by your side Gozu's heart is racing from excitement he's not afraid. Then to himself he thinks. Let's see what this thing can do.

Julia would slow down and creep through the darkness... considering that Roa had taken down the lights, and she can't be sensed, it's pretty likely she could make it to where Nai and Gozu are facing down Roa. "Hold on guys, I'm coming... I don't know what I could do, but... I'm on my way!"
If she can't make it, then we'll just have to see what the dungeon master says gets in her way.

As Sakar watches the battle before him unfold (with cameras that can see the base as if it was fully lit), he hears a beep. More visitors? He turns to the view of the doors to the Secret Base. He watches the android, Julia, sneak in past the doors. He presses a few buttons on the control panel to get a reading of her strength, but he doesn't get anything.
She is an Android. Perhaps she can join the fun too, but I must know what she is capable of! He then presses a few more buttons on the control panel. He was basically explaining the directions for the "Dungeon Master."

As Julia enters the open area of the base, she would hear a low rumbling sound. Suddenly, a spike would shoot up from one of the tiles in front of her, followed by more all around her, a few lasers would fire from the wall of the nearby house, as well, and lead spikes would fall from the cieling over her.

The spike rips through the air right before Julia's leg, she almost felt it it was so close... this got her on alert as she began hearing the sound of metal moving all around her... the spikes began shooting out at her, and she had to take advantage of her speed to dash around for all the open spaces, having to go by almost sound alone... "Glad I took Korin's training." ...until she makes it through... but then lasers seem to be able to fire straight at her... "Wish I could fly... this place probably has pressure sensors or something..." She is hit by the lasers, stumbling back toward all the spike traps again, but a heavy rumbling is heard overhead... "Oh crap!" She doesn't know what it is, so she dives forward, hearing a heavy CRASH behind her as the lead spikes crash in to the ground...
Catching her breath, and paler than a ghost, Julia attempts to make a run for it now, no longer caring about being all stealthy, as that clearly doesn't seem to work against some place like this with touch-sensors in the floor (so she thinks)... "Just gotta out run everything!" If she weren't an android, she'd be skewered at her power level by now, but thank God that's not how it went.

As Julia runs, more spikes fall from overhead, though with her speed they seem to be only keeping her from going backwards. A loud "THUNK" can be heard, and soon Julia will come across a large pit, almost twenty feet long, six feet wide, and tewnty feet deep. At the bottom are large, five foot spikes. Two small laser turrets pop out of the walls of the buildings on either side, firing lasers at her to distract her from the pit ahead.

Julia was too busy yelping and trying to outrun the spikes crashing behind her to avoid the lasers... They hit her, and she finds herself falling in to the pit... "WAAAAAAHHH!!!" Gozu and/or especially Nai might hear her scream... "Think fast!" She fires out two blasts from her hands... a quick Double Buster, to give her a little boost and as a result make sure she crosses the pit without falling in.
She lands in a roll at the other side, and immediately gets to her feet and continues running... "This is so scary, but I can't stop! I need to pay more attention, though... that almost had me..."

Now as Julia runs, random tiles would suddenly collapse under her weight. The holes they left weren't large enough, or meant to, plunge her to her death, but were sufficiant enough to trip her, perhaps twist her ankle. Of course, if she fell, it was very likely that the spikes falling from the cieling would catch up to her.

What a weakling... Sakar thinks in disgust, as Julia is having a rather tough time avoiding the traps set before her. Those two warriors would have evaded those traps easily. I suppose throwing her in there won't do any harm. She can have in on the torture too! But I need to see how these two warriors fare...
Sakar types into his control panel, giving a new set of directions to the Dungeon Master.

Julia finds herself loosing her footing with every step, barely able to run fast enough to avoid feeling her feet slip... "SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE! I DON'T LIKE THIS ANYMORE!!!" She cries out, with her arms flailing wildly and her legs moving as fast as she can make them, even though she swears she almost dislocated her ankle a couple of steps back. Survival instinct just pushes her ahead, though.
She won't be able to keep this up forever, though. "Please, Nai, and whoever the other guy is... Gozu maybe... help me make it through like you two did... Why did I have to come in to this crazy place?!"

Two thin beams of energy would shoot from the glowing eyes and head for Nai's own. Then the eyes would disappear, as would Roa, who would reappear next to Gozu, sending a punch into his kidney, followed by a kick to his stomach and finally, a ki blast to the side of his face.

Post by Nai on May 28, 2009 12:53:07 GMT -5
Nai can hear a familiar voice as he waits for Roa to make the first move. Then when Julia shouts once more, he can hear her. He telepathically speaks to her, Stay on your toes... We could use your help.
Nai falls down as a reflex to the eye lasers that fire out of Roa's eyes. They barely scathe the top of head, fitting right between his antennae. He places his hands behind him to break his fall. Sensing Roa right next to Gozu, Nai shoves his foot into the ground. It will pop up from the ground behind Roa and aim to give her a nice kick to the butt. His foot will retract immediately back to Nai's position.
Nai keeps his arms up as this happens, trying to solidify his guard the best he can.

As Julia pushes on, dozens of wire thin beams would suddenly flare into life in front of her. More lasers would appear behind and above her, sealing her in the space between two houses. Should she try to touch the lasers, she would find that they're of a much higher quality than the ones used earlier. She would be unable to move out of her little prison, but she could see out.
The battle wasn't that far from her, and she would be able to see flashes from the attacks.
At least the spikes have stopped falling.

Gozu watches as eye lasers fire at Nai and then the glow disappears. Lucky for Gozu the glow of her eyes alert Gozu to her attack a split second before Roa launches her attacks giving him barely enough time to After Image away getting closer to Nai. Dang she's fast

Julia runs right in to the laser prison, and the moment she reaches the lasers ahead of her, she shrieks... "OUCH!" And jumps back, collapsing on to her butt.
She realizes that the spikes aren't out to get her any more, and so she takes her time to catch her breath, and... "Oh God, my feet...!" She tries to sooth her sore ankles, having little success, although the pain is falling at a natural rate for someone at her power... not that that would be fast, though. "Now what do I do? I'm like a prisoner now..." She hasn't really noticed anything beyond the lasers ahead of her yet... too focused on her own issues.

Roa, once she realized Gozu was not there, she leapt up, away from Nai's kick, and floated about twenty feet above the ground. Energy gathered in her raised hands even as she leapt, and after a short moment she swung them down, releasing a yellow beam of power at the two. She was aiming specifically for Nai, but she could easily redirect the beam to Gozu if the former moved too quickly.

Work with me on this one! Nai says to Gozu. Nai brings his hands above his forehead, one behind the other. He gathers his energy and launches his masenko at the beam heading towards him. It collides with the beam and begins to get overpowered. Nai's counting on Gozu to pitch in and overpower Roa's attack.

Post by Gozu on May 28, 2009 13:12:31 GMT -5
Gozu slides behind putting his hands infront him right above Nai's antenna and supporting his right hand with his left Gozu charges a Masenko and fires into Nai's beam making it stronger.

Julia starts to look out from her cage, and can easily see the ki attacks being used... they illuminate the area enough for her to see Nai and Gozu... "It is Gozu!!!" She seems unusually happy about this, and crawls closer toward the bars of her laser prison. She's afraid of calling for help right now, as she might distract one of them and get them hurt... "I've gotta get out of this on my own..." She starts to look up and down and left and right, and sees the little laser projectors... She creates a weak and tiny illificitia orb, and sends it around to blow up all the muzzles of these laser-firing thingies, which should set her free and open her path up before her without using much of her energy at all.

Roa broke of the beam struggle once Gozu added his strength to the attack. She after imaged away, reappearing behind Gozu. She thrust her arms out, attempting to wrap them tightly around his neck. At the same time her tail would lash out at Nai, and try to wrap around his legs before pulling away and tossing him aside.

As Julia destroyed the lasers, more energy was sent to the others, which redirected their aim at the android. If she was persistant she'd escape, but not without some injury. If she stopped, they would return to their previous positions.

Nai lets out his ki, generating an aura that will brightly light up the area. He notices the tail coming at him, but isn't fast enough to dodge it. He does manage to shove his finger nails deeply into the tail. As it unwinds, Nai is sent flipping, and he barely stops himself. He gets back up and tries to rush as close to Gozu as possible, but he won't get there in time to help Gozu defend against Roa.

Gozu stops his Masekno as soon as Roa breaks free from it. He squints slightly as Nai's aura covers the area. He senses Roa behind him but it's too late he feels her arms wrap around his neck. "If you wanted a hug you should have just said so." Gozu jokes as he attempts to elbow her until she lets him go.
