(The trios battle is on, and it's starts intensely as the 2 sides rush each other, though the VCO trio of [b]Iotrix, Desdimos, [/b] and [b]Ethedro[/b], are playing much more aggressively, determined to absolutely crush the SFT trio of [b]Shiruno, Ivarien,[/b] and [b]Kobaya[/b].) ______________________ [b][u]*Cliche--blam!- opening theme plays*[/u][/b] ______________________ [b][u][FIGHT SEQUENCE][/u][/b] *[b]Desdimos[/b] focuses on [b]Kobaya[/b], raining down swings from his distinct, 7-foor long, metallic, dark green and bronze halberd polearm, with 2 glowing, green, large axe heads reflecting each other. [b]Kobaya[/b] grabs the halberd as it was about to be slammed on him, but [b]Desdimos[/b] brings forth a huge, dark green rock with a sharp edge towards [b]Kobaya[/b], who hears it coming from behind and leaps away to evade it. As he rolls up to one knee, [b]Kobaya[/b] is met with the butt of the halberd to his face, then an upward swing that sends him flying several meters.* *While downed, [b]Kobaya[/b] looks up to see that [b]Desdimos[/b] is midair, halberd raised above his head, and the same large, sharp-edged green rocks surrounding him. The rocks aim at [b]Kobaya[/b], coming down quite fast, but not fast enough as [b]Kobaya[/b] pulls out his mechanical plate, shooting out a teal barrier, suspending the rocks in the air, then shooting a wave of energy that deflects back as [b]Desdimos[/b], hitting him and dealing some damage.* *[b]Shiruno[/b] eludes every swing coming from [b]Iotrix[/b] and her knife flails, who then spins one flail before summoning a copy made from golden energy for extended reach, ultimately failing. A second later, [b]Iotrix[/b] is hit by a small explosive knife, not realizing that [b]Shiruno[/b] sneakily threw the knife at her feet while she was charging up that final flail swing. To capitalize on the stunned [b]Iotrix[/b], [b]Shiruno[/b] runs up on her, delivers a forearm to her face, then continues with a 6-hit combo, ending it with a takedown that locks [b]Iotrix[/b]'s left arm. In attempts to counter, [b]Iotrix[/b] easily lifts [b]Shiruno[/b] up while she has her in this armbar, but [b]Shiruno[/b] lets go and fires an explosive knife in her face.* [b]Iotrix:[/b] *in Greek* (Goddammit! When did these [b]Saitranovians[/b] get so adroit?!) *[b]Ivarien[/b] fires a laser from his right gauntlet at [b]Ethedro[/b], who is blocking it with a thick, dark brown, gold, and red shield attached to his left forearm pad. Slowly advancing towards [b]Ivarien[/b], [b]Ethedro[/b] stops blocking the laser and suddenly lunges at him with a swing from his big, double bit battle axe with an orange glow at the edges, moving [b]Ivarien[/b] back several meters, but managing to stay on his feet. [b]Ethedro[/b] continues to rush [b]Ivarien[/b], and to counter, he quickly places a blue laser cage that [b]Ethedro[/b] falls for, dealing a decent amount of damage. The way [b]Ethedro[/b] reacts to taking the damage is unexpected, standing there as if the trap didn't faze him at all.* *[b]Shiruno[/b] throws an explosive knife at [b]Iotrix[/b], smacking it away with her flail, luckily not exploding since the knife is on a countdown, and it heads towards [b]Kobaya[/b] and [b]Desdimos[/b]' battle. [b]Desdimos[/b] notices the knife and hears the beeping, and swiftly grabs [b]Kobaya[/b], lifting him up one-handed in the way of the knife, exploding the second it comes in contact with his body, knocking the 2 back. A green rock shoots up from the ground and smashes into [b]Kobaya[/b], whose then juggled into the air by continuous halberd attacks from [b]Desdimos[/b], then ends the combo by trapping [b]Kobaya[/b] inside a dark green rock pillar before firing a small bronze energy wave, destroying the pillar and sending [b]Kobaya[/b] flying.* *[b]Desdimos[/b] turns his attention to [b]Shiruno[/b] and [b]Iotrix[/b]'s battle. [b]Iotrix[/b]'s right flail hooks onto [b]Shiruno[/b]'s machete, yanking onto the flail as [b]Shiruno[/b] is brought behind her, but with quick reflexes, she counterattacks with a sliding kick to [b]Iotrix[/b]'s face, then a machete slash to the stomach, but as she's about to throw an explosive shuriken, [b]Iotrix[/b] unexpectedly recovers and grabs the arm the explosive shuriken is held. Noticing [b]Desdimos[/b] skulking, she forcefully moves [b]Shiruno[/b] closer to him for an open attack, landing a punch to the chest that pushes [b]Shiruno[/b], combined with a green rock shot into her back.* *[b]Iotrix[/b] and [b]Desdimos[/b] then hit a devious combo on [b]Shiruno[/b]. [b]Iotrix[/b] first with a tornado kick to the face, then a -blam!- combo from her flails, then [b]Desdimos[/b] delivers a bombardment of halberd attacks before [b]Iotrix[/b] returns with energy-assisted flail attacks, ending as [b]Desdimos[/b] entraps [b]Shiruno[/b]'s head, hands, and feet in conjoined rock fragments. [b]Ivarien[/b] quickly notices the attack and distracts [b]Ethedro[/b] with a blast to his right shin, running towards [b]Iotrix[/b] and [b]Desdimos[/b]. As he gains enough momentum, [b]Ivarien[/b] fires beams into the ground, boosting himself up in the air. He then fires a light blue dot at the 2, catching their attention away from their assault on [b]Shiruno[/b]. They look at each other, wondering if what [b]Ivarien[/b] did was an idiotic move before beams rain down on them from thin air, small explosions occur, knocking them back as the rock fragments break off, dropping [b]Shiruno[/b].* *[b]Kobaya[/b] is kneeled down, and seeing that [b]Ethedro[/b] is pursuing [b]Ivarien[/b], he throws his plate, hitting [b]Ethedro[/b] in the legs, knocking him down to his knees. [b]Kobaya[/b] then commands the plate to return to him, and then jumps on it, riding it like an aerial surfboard. Riding closer to the action, he moves his fingers in a circular motion, teal energy discs form around [b]Ethedro[/b], driving into him while circulating to deal some good damage.* [b]Kaburo:[/b] There we go, SFT! Let's piss off the king! [b]Esadius:[/b] They must maintain their vigilance. Learn from what costed [b]Karnage Vyper[/b] his win. *[b]Ivarien[/b] helps [b]Shiruno[/b] up, and as they look across from them, they notice that a large green rock is headed their way, so [b]Ivarien[/b] drops the same laser cage, the rock breaks into small pieces as the laser cage dissipates. Golden energy emits from [b]Iotrix[/b]'s right hand before lightly bursting, golden energy spreads around her body as spinning blades surround her, made of the same golden energy, used as a form of defense and offense. Raising her flails, she lunges at the 2, who are currently evading her attacks due to being uncertain about the spinning energy blades around her body and how to counter them.* *[b]Ethedro[/b] attempts to slam his battle axe down on [b]Kobaya[/b], but he'-blam!- with a laser beam from [b]Ivarien[/b], whose then interrupted by [b]Desdimos[/b] with halberd attacks, the first attack hitting his gauntlet as he dodges the other attacks. Turning his attention to [b]Ethedro[/b], [b]Kobaya[/b] throws an energy disc at him, but impenetrable, reddish orange energy outlines his body. The energy disc tries to cut through him but fails, disintegrating seconds later. [b]Ethedro[/b] runs towards [b]Kobaya[/b], slamming his battle axe down with more force, and despite the slams missing, it gives off a decently sized explosion milliseconds after, so [b]Kobaya[/b] has to dodge 2 forms of attacks. Last minute, he switches up and uses his plate to block an incoming slam, and as it's blocked, an explosion forms from under [b]Kobaya[/b] as he's sent flying.* *[b]Ethedro[/b] continues to pursue the downed [b]Kobaya[/b], but out of nowhere, a grenade hits his body and explodes on impact, disabling the energy outline. Turning to his left, he sees that [b]Shiruno[/b] is the one responsible. [b]Ethedro[/b] turns his entire body to her, changing targets, but [b]Iotrix[/b] puts her right flail in front of him, declaring in Greek: "Let me have her for now, [b]Ethedro[/b]. You finish the one with that mechanical circle." But before the 2 VCO combatants make their move, they're suddenly hit by [b]Ivarien[/b]'s salvo of beams, creating multiple explosions that deal some more damage.* *[b]Kobaya[/b] swiftly springs up, jumps on his plate, and rides towards a kneeled [b]Ethedro[/b]. Coming in faster and closer, he summons a teal energy disc in his hands and throws it at [b]Ethedro[/b], causing great slash damage to his torso. [b]Kobaya[/b] then rides towards an incoming [b]Desdimos[/b], who fires a huge green rock at [b]Shiruno[/b], but it ends up getting sliced in half by another energy disc from [b]Kobaya[/b], resuming his attack by hitting [b]Desdimos[/b] with the plate he's ([b]Kobaya[/b]) riding on, changing directions to hit him again, then for the final attack, he creates major distance, rides towards [b]Desdimos[/b] with 2 larger energy discs, then throws them, [b]Desdimos[/b] strikes back with a heap of massive green rocks. Though the heap of green rocks demolish the 2 energy discs, [b]Kobaya[/b] is surprisingly not hit, but he's riding the plate on his back, then as he gets closer, he sits up and slashes [b]Desdimos[/b]' stomach with one humongous and even more powerful disc.* *[b]Shiruno[/b] drops an energy disabling grenade on [b]Iotrix[/b], canceling her spinning blades, then throws an explosive shuriken so quick to where [b]Iotrix[/b] didn't have time to react, continuing with machete slashes within a barrage of punches and kicks, throws a weakening gas grenade past [b]Iotrix[/b], before knocking her away with a 2-handed machete swing. Inside the white gas, while [b]Iotrix[/b] isn't coughing and is breathing normally, she feels her energy weakening as that's what the gas grenade does. [b][i]*Continuing Below*[/i][/b]
