Side Story No Honor Among Thieves

Agent Stone

Stone was a lot of things, but careless was generally not one of them. He took pride in being able to handle himself. Also his ability to make a really good cup of coffee. So when he couldn't gauge if the attack was good enough for the monster, he cursed under his breath. To make matters slightly worse, it seemed that his gun had jammed. He would take a second to fumble to try and get it to shoot and in doing that, he accidently fired a round on the armored shell of the monster. Hopeully that didn't cause a problem. "Fuck," he muttered,

The enemies attacking, while looking intimidating, seemed to have a hard time against the group attacking them. Any attempt to speak to them was responded by some very angry sounding clicks and hisses. For the moment the attack on the second floor had subsided for a moment.


As this was going on another salvo caused the ship to rock again.


"They're coming in from above and bellow in the engine room!" Bowser roared over the speakers. "Someone do something before they blow us out of the sky!" To this Matador started to calmly make his way up towards the flight deck of the ship. Seemingly to stop the attackers dead in their tracks.


@Ver @Chaos Sphere @Rwac96 @Gummi Bunnies @Takumi @Lucky @Yun Lee @Sark


At seeing a few of their numbers head to the flight deck, Plumeria and her Pokémon went down to the engine room.

Any crustacean like creatures in her way would recieve similar treatment from the one on the second floor, though if any were in the engine room, Golbat would be the main aggressor while Salandit stayed closer to their trainer.

The flying types wings glowed as the Pokémon charged at the nearest enemy in the engine room.

Golbat used WING ATTACK!

Hopefully, there weren't too many down there for her and Golbat to handle in the meantime.

@Jeremi @Engine room
 
The hedgehog thought that talking with these creatures might persuade them to join their cause, only to learn that they simply chitter, click and hiss. Cobalt blue eyes behind the pair of red sunglasses shift around, as Scourge charges towards a trio of charging attackers. Once more curling up into a ball, the Moebian performs a swift Spin Attack; bouncing off of one head onto the next until each of them were on the floor.

Dark Meta Knight soundlessly jumped into the fray and dashed between the crustacean-looking humanoids in sync with Scourge's spinning blitz, delivering a circular slash from within the middle of the group to slash off the legs of any foe within his blade's reach in half a second after the first few impacts that occurred just above him. After pulling off the offensive maneuver, regardless of its outcome, he would retreat back to safety as fast as he had entered into enemy vicinity to prepare for his next course of action.

They're coming in from above and bellow in the engine room!" Bowser roared over the speakers. "Someone do something before they blow us out of the sky!" To this Matador started to calmly make his way up towards the flight deck of the ship. Seemingly to stop the attackers dead in their tracks.

"An attack from two directions..." the masked swordsman muttered to himself as he calmly absorbed the words that bellowed from the speakers. Turning to the mooks and any comrade still within the area, he swiftly addressed those near him "Just in case someone would find me, I'll be going through that improvised entrance of theirs." Without a pause, he zoomed to the rip where the monsters originated from, mercilessly slicing at any that stood in his way. Once he passed through the hole, he immediately took flight and surveyed the area around him while trying to keep up with the speed of the airship.

"Rejoice, my dear compatriot, for it seems you needed not wait long to witness my power firsthand," Vergil said as he walked alongside Matador toward the Flight Deck, nonchalantly beginning to draw his favored blade, the Yamato. The sudden appearance of the strange enemies hadn't bothered the white-haired young man at all; if anything, if there was any emotion to be found past his icy exterior, one might only be able to find a trace of muted glee and excitement.

A thrill for the fight.

As they came into the view of more approaching enemies, Vergil let out a soft breath. "Scum. Begone from my sight," he only said coldly, before unsheathing and then sheathing his Yamato rapidly in the blink of an eye.

Judgment Cut.

With that movement, one such monster -- several meters away and out of the sword's apparent range -- was suddenly cut in two horizontally, a blue distortion in the air flashing in its place. With the power of his demonic heritage, Vergil had cut down an enemy at such a great distance, and he continued to do the same to other monsters that would dare continue to approach!

The bullet fired from Agent Stones gone would ricochet off the thick carapace of the alien and went flying towards Matador. The skeleton stopped briefly in its tracks before continuing upwards.

@Lucky @2ndFloor

As for Dark Meta Knight as he entered the enemy craft he quickly found there wasn't much room to spread his wings. It seemed to be formed in a tube with a few seats inside. You could assume it was fired from somewhere with an living payload inside. He found this particular one empty, which probably meant that the ones that had been inside had moved to somewhere else in the ship or already taken care off.

@Chaos Sphere @DropShip

The ones heading to the flight quickly realized the full scope of the situation they found themselves in. The sun was obscured by two massive space ships hovering above them, along with a number of smaller ones flying around and trying to get some pot shots. The Koopa troopers up on the deck seemed to be surprisingly effective in taking care of any of the foes trying to enter from above. Yamada as well was using his mental powers to fling debris and anything else against their attackers.

As Scourge burst unto the scene a number of beams of light hit the flight deck from where new enemies emerged.

More alien looking figures emerged from them ready to attack anyone close enough.

@Ver @Rwac96 @FlightDeck

Plumeria meanwhile was met with a sick crunch of metal hitting carapace as a space pirates was crushed under the massive hammer of Heisenberg, who twirled it around like it was made out of paper. "Finally, one of you fuck heads showed up."

The Pokemon trainer spotted that there had been far more of those drop ships having been deployed into this area. In the center was a massive machine that she could only assume was the main engine of the ship that was being attacked by those same crab people. "If they destroy the engine this entire place is going to go crashing down!" Heisenberg shouted swatting away some of the foes as he was trying to make his way towards the engine.

The green-furred speedster's eyes widen as the beams strike the Flight Deck, seeing more extraterrestrial-looking humanoids emerging from the light. Simply sneering at the sight, Scourge curls into a ball once more. Though this was a theorized attack maneuver, he had a gut feeling this was something Sonic would do.

"Gotta time this right!" The Moebian then launches himself at the attacker's helmets, bouncing off of one of them and onto another; knocking them off of their feet. A 'Homing Attack', a term coined by Miles, was something Scourge would've used during his attack on Mobius Prime but things became hectic. The villainous hedgehog bounces off another of the attackers, uncurling out of the ball in mid-air, and delivers a knife kick to the top of another of the invader's heads.

"Taste the floor, shitheels!" Scourge shouts, crouching down as another of the figures got close, delivering a swift kick to the ankles; making them fall to the floor.

@Jeremi @Ver @FlightDeck
 
"Nothing of high interest..." Dark Meta Knight sighed as he examined his direct surroundings, which felt quite small even for someone of his size. Having assumed that there is nothing worth noting, he retreated back to Bowser's ship with the intention to check the engine room's status.

After a short pause to recall the layout of the ship based on the maps that he had encountered previously, he unfurled his wings and rushed to the engine room without a sound. Any foe the masked knight would encounter along the way would be treated mercilessly by his blade as he bolted through the halls.

"Yeah well most of the others went to go play on the flight deck." Plumeria replied, nose scrunching at the sight of the crushed crab being.

With most of the alienesque beings being swatted away, Plumeria motioned for her Golbat to use WING ATTACK and CONFUSE RAY on their opponents while Salandit would snap her jaws at any that tried to get close to their trainer.

@Jeremi @EngineRoom
 
As Scourge was decking the pirates he would suddenly feel something hovering behind him, yet for some reason as he turned around there was nothing there. Suddenly he felt like something swooshed over him cutting some hair off his head.

@Rwac96 @Ver @FlightDeck

As DMK left the pod it would break off from the ship and leaving a hole in the hull as he fluttered down to the engine room. Coming down the stairs he'd find Plumeria's bat like creature swatting away one with its massive wings before hitting another space pirate with some sort of beam. The confuse ray left the space pirate swaying from side to side before it suddenly swiped at one of its own instead of the Golbat.

While this and Heisenberg's attacks slowed them down there was still now about five of them that had managed to make it to the main engine as they began hacking away at it.

Quickly gets up to his feet as he feels something...behind him, making the speedster swiftly turn around but seeing nothing. "The hell?!" Scourge blinks, then he feels something again; only over him and cutting off some quills. This made the green-furred Moebian shudder, bringing him back to his first days in the No-Zone.

"Alright," he shouts at the top of his lungs, growing annoyed. "Who's the wiseass doin' that?! You think you're faster than me!? I'm the FASTEST THING ALIVE HERE, Bub!"

@Jeremi @Ver @FlightDeck
 
Dark Meta Knight had arrived and seen the ongoing commotion; but what he noticed the most is the engine about to get dismantled by a group of monsters. Without wasting a split second, he burst into a sprint, summoned a levitating mirror larger than him, and disappeared into it; the reflective portal vanishing only to materialize on the floor directly behind the monsters without any sound. From within it, the masked swordsman then shot up and pulled off a surprise attack with a decapitating blow aimed to take out at least two of them.

Regardless of how many were caught in his blatantly back-handed strike (or if any were caught at all), he would then immediately vanish into his own wings mid-air and reappear right in front of them as fast as he had previously reappeared, unleashing a split-second diagonal slash the exact split-second he reappeared. With a deliberately disorienting combative approach in mind, he hoped that not only would he get a kill or more but also that his spontaneous appearance and shift in position confuses any survivor enough to negatively affect their efforts in any way.

@Jeremi @Takumi @EngineRoom
 
The battle continued on topside as Scourge shouted into the air trying to look for the unknown assassin stalking him. Focusing a bit more he suddenly spotted something in the sun, a frame barely visible in the sun that looked like it was charging in for another attack.

@Rwac96 @Ver @FlightDeck

Caught unaware by DMKs surprise attack, two of the space pirates were quickly cut down to size as he emerged from his mirror. The third one however seeing him emerge quickly turned around and quickly blocked his sword with its scythe like arms. Even then DMK noticed that his sword cut a good chunk into its pincers and it was clearly hurting. Meanwhile the other two left seemed to focus unto the armored ball as well as they fired off some sort of ray from their claws towards him as well.

Thankful that he had kept his red sunglasses for so long, through his brief time as King of Moebius, time in the No-Zone, and since the worlds were messed with by the Wily-Egg team-up. Calming himself down to not let his temper get the best of him, the speedster suddenly sees something in the sun; barely visible in the light. Though, he could tell he, she, or it, were charging for another attack.

YhPUZgQ.jpg


"Gotcha, fucker!" Jumping into the air, charging toward the figure as he curls into a spinning ball. The Green Blur was making a risky gamble on speeding towards a target who was charging an attack with his Spin Attack. Though, he did have something to prove; that he was the fastest. Not Sonic or whoever this mystery assassin was. Scourge The Hedgehog is the Fastest Thing Alive, and he will give this stranger a painful lesson in it or die trying.

@Jeremi @Ver @FlightDeck
 
Dark Meta Knight swiftly reacted to the counterattack, launching himself upwards with a sword uppercut aimed that the monster that had attempted to block his attack earlier, avoiding the fired energy attack in the process. Regardless of whether the sword uppercut landed, he would perform a swift backward loop as a precautionary evasive maneuver before charging in the previously attacked target's direction at full speed, his blade pointed forward to stab all that gets in his way. In the middle of his charge, a large mirror would appear right behind the locked-on target, serving as both an obstruction to the invader and a gateway to the masked swordsman.

Agent Stone would look up at the skeleton. " Sorry about that, the bullet kind of bounced off the alien, I'll be more careful in the future,":he replied, looking over at the things and aiming his shots correctly now.

@Jeremi @2nd floor
 
Scourge's counter towards the attack caused a hard enough impact to send a smaller shockwave rippling over the flight deck and sending the invisible assailant flying towards the side. As it hit the side buckling the railing the attacker finally came visible.

A gross two headed monstrosity slobbered at Scourge before it roared and came at him once again.

@Rwac96 @Ver @FlightDeck

Matador hadn't paid Stone any mind and had left him standing alone on the now surprisingly quiet 2nd floor.

@Lucky @2ndfloor

DMKs distraction had allowed Heisenberg to come closer to the engine and ripping one of the attackers of it and flinging them against the wall. The added support seemed to allow them to cut down the rest of the opposition inside the engine room, with the footsoldiers harrying any other surprise assailants still emerging from the walls or the stairs.

Perhaps surprising to some, it seemed that Bowser and his allies was turning the tide to the surprise attack.

"UGH!" He sneers in disgust when the two-headed creature splatters saliva at him, dodging out of the path of the slobber. "You are not fucking up my jacket, you gross prick!"

Curling up into a ball, Scourge charges a spin-dash as the monster comes at him once more; launching himself at the abomination and driving his spikes into its torso.

"..."

While Scourge fought off the monster, Vergil chose to bide his time, not even bothering to help out the green creature. Instead, he raised his prized katana, the Yamato, and unsheathed it ever so slightly, only a few inches of its gleaming blade being made visible. The creature that was after them and the group was worthy of seeing only that much of the sword, after all.

Once the monster finally became visible and Scourge continued with a frontal assault, Vergil disappeared with a blue blur, swiftly teleporting behind the creature, and lowered into a stance.

Stinger.

With a frenetic dash, faster than the human eye could process, Vergil zipped forward with his blade thrust forward, hoping to stab right into the monster's hunched back.

The speedster bounces back as Vergil proceeded to attack the creature, taking note of him appearing in another spot in a swift blue blur. Seeing such a blur made Scourge scowl slightly, both as a matter of pride and the fact that it reminded him of Sonic. Though, he was getting assistance at the least.

Curling up into a ball once more, the Green Blur launches himself towards one of the monster's heads; assaulting it constantly as he bounces off each head over and over again.

@Jeremi @Ver @FlightDeck
 
As Vergil and Scourge battered the now visible monster in front of them the son of Sparda could spot Matador staring at him intently from the corner of his eye. The monster meanwhile was finally battered and bruised and with a gurgle it fell motionless to the ground.

Meanwhile the rest of the pirates on the flight deck was being kept in check by Yamada and Bowser's army. Much like the engine room it seemed that the upper deck was turning the tide as well.
