Final Destination

A simple platform far above the ground, the Neutral Zone is just that... an area totally unconnected with the war, a flat plane where virtually anything can be done, from meetings between sides to rallys of Videoland's residents. The war doesn't matter here... this place is completely neutral, sitting at the edge of space, the highest natural point in the realm, the Pong arena floating far below, showing that this, too, is a central location in the realm.

Gameshark has arrived.
Red Mage has arrived.

White Mage teleports in with a few flashes, looking about calmly. "I have come to see the proceedings."

<IC Chatter> The Dragon Warrior says, "I was not aware that the Anomaly was such a major threat at the time."

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "Also, those unaffiliated that wish to view Videoland's fate may also join us."

Mortimer McMire has arrived.

<IC Chatter> Red Mage says, "Good. I'm still skeptical anything bad's gonna happen..."

Lady A steps out of the warp zone and ends up in the Final Destination. She takes one look up at the large anomaly as the zone closes behind her.

Nemesis has arrived.
Jason has arrived.

Cube arives sedately, but with dignaty, for he is the heroes' bearer of the Elements. He is driving the SCV he uses, and his Chao is perched on top of it.

Jason drops Element? - Manifesto of Herr Himmler.

Jason drops Element? - Ring of Shadows.

Red Mage teleports in, and stands next to White Mage. He's got some book out, and is watching intently, writing.

Jason drops Element - Kuribo's Shoe.

Jason drops Element - The Crystal of Air.

Jason escapes into a warp zone.

Jason has left.

Out of a warpzone comes Raynor, Gui, Crystal Larry and several other Terrans.

Samus Aran folds her arms, watching the enemies in question closely. Or at least her visor is pointed that way.

A barrel-warp appears, falls to the ground, breaks open, and out falls Ashton. "Almost got that perfected." He grumbles as he stands up. Gazing around, he makes his way over to wherever the other goodguy types are, having never been here before now.

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "Am I needed there as well, or do you think everything is taken care of with those gathered?"

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "Ditto, just call if somethin' going on."

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Ryu, I would be honored if you accompany me at the gates... Something just feels odd..."

Wolf O'Donnell has arrived.

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "Someone needs to be ready, just in case..."

A blue speck in the sky resolves, gradually, into the graceful lines of the Guardian's flightmode - with a deft pulling-up of her nose, she begins the conversion cycle, landing deftly about a yard from Lady A. Without saying anything, she waves and smiles cheerfully at the Gamemaster.

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "I think I'll go to the front of the Palace, as well."

<Hero-IC> Jason says, "Sounds like an idea."

A Warp Zone suddenly appears within the central area of the Final Destination, shortly reveiling there after the form of Gameshark, who ominiously floats from the pipe tube and hovers in mid air. The Dark Gamemaster looks around and notices the vast variety of people here, ready and willing to defend their lands should it come to it. While others could careless. He says nothing and just looks around, waiting for the moment.

... The moment that shall decide destiny.

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "But I thought people where gathering at the Final...." Sighs faintly. "I shall be there soon Arm Commander.""

Suddenly, a man drops in from above, holding a camera. "Hello, I am a world famous photographer. Let's take a picture so that you'll remember this moment forever. Say Fuzzy Pickles!"

Well, no, not really. But it would be fun if it happened.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "I'm standing by with a small squad."

<Hero-IC> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> Maybe it would be a good idea for us to possess Ashton for the duration of this event, in case something does go wrong, it won't do for him to slip up at a time like this. <Ururun> Not that we don't have faith in him, but he has a tendency to slip up in crucial moments."

The Dragon Warrior exits a Warp Zone onto Final Destination, and looks around at the gathering. "Plenty of people here. At least we'll be prepared if these element things open a portal from which giant monsters and demons start spewing out, or something." He doesn't say anything about the fact that they'll also be prepared if the Villains try to double-cross them.

<Hero-IC> Armadon says, "<Hrrrm... Best to be ready. -Most- of the villiany seem sincere.. but that isn't saying much at times...>"

<Hero-IC> The Dragon Warrior says, "I still don't trust them."

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "We seem to be ready at the Final Destination."

A Concrete Donkey randomly falls past the Final Destination in the distance.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "We have one of our best egg heads with us and he will be minotoring the rift with scanning equipment."

What's this? Mortimer McMire, currently an outlaw in the eyes of the Villains, teleports in with his usual beam of wavering blue light. That's rather odd, he's bound to be attacked on sight. Of course, it's probably an android being controlled remotely, so attacking it is pointless. However, one must remember that your Morty has had a significant role, or tried to at least, in making sure things went smoothly up until this point. It's only natural that he would want to view this. Now, let's see just how many people decide to shoot at him...

He's on a black hover-platform, you can see a crew of tiny yellow Bips in a clear control center attached to the bottom keeping it afloat.

A large warpzone slowly opens in the sky before a large ship flies out, quickly moving to land before a gangplank is rolled out and General Scales walks down smirking

Wart has arrived.

Wario appears in his hot tub, tub included, eyes closed, unaware that he has been somehow teleported to here. And yes, he has a swimsuit on.

Cube has the SCV place down a large crate. It is the product of a high tech socity, and looks a loy like those in System Shock 2, and is also clearly sealed against everything. Cube speaks, "I believe we are ready."

The Warlock Lord has been standing in Final Destination, his head bowed, silently thinking, as everyone begins to gather. The anomaly swirls overhead. "It... begins."

Lady A stands next to the crate, and nods at her fellow heroes. "Yes... It looks like it's time." She turns to regard the arriving villains. She attempts to ignore Wario.. disturbing. She also avoids spam, since there are a lot of people here.

Wario starts snoring.

Samus Aran nods slightly to Lady A, in agreement. "Ready here."

While Ashton waits around, the two dragons on his back silently speak to him suddenly <Gyoro: Ashton, not that we don't trust your abilities, but the events here tonight seem rather delicate, and we can't afford to make any mistakes> <Ururun:Sorry about this.> Ashton can only get a "Huh?" Before *ping* his eyes flash red, possessed by the red head of the twin dragons on his back. "Let's hope this doesn't take long, I don't want to test how long we can control him."

Gameshark strikes Gameshark with his trivial Test attack.

The Dragon Warrior walks over to Lady A, and looks at the crate. "Are those the elements?"

Cube strikes The Warlock Lord with his trivial Test attack.

Well, anyway, yay, Wolf warps himself into Final Destination. No guns on the lupine this time, of course, since he's got a lot of money riding on this. He rubs one of his ears as he looks around for the villains.

Lady A looks to Dragon Warrior, and says, "All that we have gathered on our end." She looks... "Right, Cube?"

General Scales crosses his arms as he walks over to the Warlock Lord, "This should be over quick.", he chuckles for a bit as he listens to his radio, eyes shifting back to the ship as he says in dinosaur <"Keep your weapons lowered.">, the SharpClaws onboard remain silent as they store their weapons in the hold

Calling down from his location above Final Destination, McMire says, "Well, who would have thought that Mother Brain would actually allow you to try to save the world? I was always under the assumption that she was so selfish and self-centered that she wouldn't have seen the nature of this emergancy. It certainly appeared that way the last time I checked." The hovor platform he's on changes position slightly, lazily drifting towards the Heroes.

The Guardian remains standing fairly near to Lady A, keeping her weapons stored (NO USE, as her systems put it) and looking towards the other side. She wonders, to herself, if they really think of themselves as... 'villains'. McMire gets a rather annoyed look, but nothing else.

Cube nods. "They are all in the crate, which is sealed to my code. Still, we will need the Old Man here so that we can know what to do with them."

Gameshark says, "Psht... Mother Brain, She is a self-centered lil b*tch of a brain is what she is."

Amon warp here? Nah, too simple. Instead the Sinistral of Chaos prefers a much simple approach to the issue by floating downward from above, apparently having teleported from somewhere else instead. Holding between his hands an odd sphere as six dragons seem to follow him like lost puppies. "I cannot believe I am doing this..."

Borgan floats toward The Warlock Lord, objects in tow. He says nothing to him, but looks up at McMire. "Quiet. You do not speak for us. If I was not otherwise occupied, you would be dead now."

Mortimer McMire says, "Exactly, Gameshark."

And following Wolf, another warp comes out, this one rather close to the ground. That wouldn't be odd, if it weren't for the fact that it's Wart, a character who always seems to be falling out of odd warps and such and falling facefirst. Anyways, dusting himself off, he takes his place near the villains, looking toward the gathered heroes, cracking his knuckles against his hips in anxiousness. Following him, one mere Shyguy, clutching onto his head, Piggy-back Style. Seems the little guy didn't want to be left alone in this possible time of apocalypse.

Wario mumbles in his sleep.

The Warlock Lord looks up slowly, his gaze resting on Mortimer. "..." He lowers his head once again, facing the heroes. He pulls his arms from his sleeves, reaching up, and slowly pulling his hood back. "Have you brought the elements?" He asks no one in particular.

GIANT HIDEOUS ANOMALY glows threateningly.

Mortimer McMire says, "As for you, Borgan, I am not speaking on behalf of Mother Brain or her faction. I speak on behalf of myself, and I believe your glorious leader to be a fool."

Mortimer McMire says, "No matter, to issues at hand..."

Samus Aran tilts her helmet up, scanning over the anomaly. "....hmm. Omnious."

Jim Raynor and his troops have their weapons holstered or slung over their shoulders. If that it not possible they are disarmed and lowered at the moment. For now the space rednecks keep quiet and just watch what is going on. Meanwhile the scientis makes a quick scan of the items and the annomly

Mortimer McMire drifts about a bit. No longer paying attention to the exchange below him, he begins doing scans of the anomaly, which seems to be reacting to the elements being gathered.

Jair has arrived.

Gameshark says, "Just shut it and watch."

The Dark Gamemaster flips down his visor and begins typing commands into his Holo-computer, trying to scan the anomaly and get a fix on what exactly the hell is going on.. or breaking loose."

General Scales looks towards Mortimer saying, "Why don't you just stay out of this or orders will be followed.", he frowns as he focuses on the heroes gathered, silently studying them

The now possessed Ashton just eyes the anomoly for now, while keeping guard near the others. While he normally likes to act on his own, he's making sure to follow orders to the letter this time, he knows to little about this to risk trusting his instinct.

Lady A looks to Cube, and instructs: "Go ahead and open the crate, then. Perhaps when joined, the Elements will know what to do."

Wart merely peers about, looking up at McMire to say something...until the Anomaly glows. "Ok...now THAT'S freakin' me out....anyways, lets just do this and get it done with." THe shyguy on his head peers up as well, a bead of sweat dripping down the side of it's mask. "Um....Wart-sir, that thing's scaring me....it looks like it's gonna swallow us whole like a giant mouth in the sky...I don't wanna be eaten!" Sighing, Wart keeps from saying anything. After all, the little guy does have something to be afraid of, after all.

Wolf O'Donnell smirks a little bit, "So." He says, as he folds his hands behind his back, "I'm glad you guys decided to invite me to your little party."

Mortimer McMire calmly gives Scales the finger without looking away from his terminal, and continues scanning. "I'd be interested in seeing you try attacking while I'm busy trying to help you, not a smart move at the moment."

Wario rolls over in the hot tub. Boy, is his back hairy or what?

Amon began wondering what the heck did he land into...the brat McMire would be dealt with later, but for now he contented himself to watch those present as he simply sneered. "Five of our people, five of theirs he said...and I thought we were considered low and devious." He says watching the heroes mostly, as the dragons circled around him watching the sphere. "By Lord Arek's name they are annoying..." He mumbles, laying the sphere on the ground.

The Guardian steps forwards, towards Lady A, and says very quietly to her, "If you want me to, ma'am, I wouldn't mind standing in front of you. In case anything happened... I probably would stop more of whatever might happen than most people." Her expression is serious, and she seems to have been inspired by the anomaly's unusually-anomalous pulsing.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "So now what?"

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Now.... We wait."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "That is always the fun part."

Red Mage closes his eyes, and is just writing. Recording for posterity.

Cube calls out a long string of letters and numbers. "f0hb48jnb20c612n8n45gjstklva7694bujisdt27459"

There is a *hiss* of excaping air as the pressure in the crate equalises to the ambiant air pressure. Then the lid pops open, and the area is bathed in a silent glow from the crystal.

In the box is the Crystal of Air, Kuribo's Shoe, the Ring of Shadows, and the Manifesto of Herr Himmler, all on a nice piece of felt.

<Hero-IC> Armadon says, "<Patience is a virtrue oft hardest to follow...>"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Ya I know..."

Sonic the Hedgehog has arrived.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says nothing but Gui says, "Anyone bring snack food?"

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Be at alert, but don't get jumpy"

The Warlock Lord's eyes turn to glaring as he eyes the assembled heroes, now picking out individual faces. "Ashton... Cube... Samus... Jim... Lady A... Guardian... _Dragon Warrior._" He scowls. "I believe we had an agreement. Five of you. Five of us. Even with the unexpected inclusion of Wolf, we are still outnumbered. And one would expect _us_ to be treacherous." After speaking, his face returns to something closer than neutrality as he observes the elements. "At least they are all here."

<Hero-IC> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> This is why we possessed Ashton for this ordeal, he normally is horribly impatient."

Lady A shakes her head at the Guardian. "No. Thank you, but...no. What happens will happen." She braces herself. Something WILL happen.

<Hero-IC> Sonic the Hedgehog says, "I'll bring some chips. I'm on my way right now."

Cyber Chao looks down into the box from his perch on the SCV. "Ooooohhhh.... nifty-chao."

Borgan doesn't look up when the anomaly flares. It's not that he didn't see it, it's more that he sees no reason to look. It's done doing whatever that was, so why worry? The large tome floats in front of him and he opens to somewhere around page six hundred - of a couple thousand. "Book? Write." A quill pen mysteriously appears and starts to take down the actions of people in the immediate vicinity that the erratically bobbing book can 'see'. Journals are much more convinent when they write themselves.

Letting the tome float behind him, Borgan takes up a position just behind The Warlock Lord and to his left, obviously subordinate. He doesn't look happy, but he /is/ there, now with the formerly floating globe in his chubby hands.

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Stay out, Sonic. They only want five. They have five."

Lady A nods to The Warlock Lord. Then, she turns around, and looks at the others. "Well. I guess that means that one of you will have to step back."

Gameshark smirks as he hears Guardian's comment and shakes his head, . o O (What a fool, giving yer life up so easily.) He would audibly comment but right now there is much more on his mind than simple spats that would ensue, but he does say one thing, "Look all you lil pains can bicker back and forth, fight if you want too but it better not get in the way of what is to happen. The rest of you can if you want to, but I surely ain't dying here tonight."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says nothing but Crystal says, "Gui... you are just impossible..."

Wario gives off another loud snore from his warped hot tub.

Jair is suddenly just THERE, standing next to The Dragon Warrior. "Boo." Talk about a fanfareless entrance.

Samus Aran continue s to watch quietly, wondering what precisely is going to happen.

Ashton Anchors doesn't say anything, but he'll step back if asked.

White Mage walks into the middle of all of this, looking up to the anomoly, "I...I can't believe how serious this has become already..."

Samus Aran says simply to Lady A. "Got your back." The bounty hunter doesn't stop watching the anomaly, her arms still folded.

Red Mage looks up at Talimar. "The Anomaly is unchanged..."

Camu has arrived.

Wart continues to watch on, not doing much else....though he gets the growing urge to slap Wario awake, just so he won't have to see the forest of body hair the man has.

Carlie has arrived.

GIANT HIDEOUS ANOMALY ponders.... are /all/ of the Elements here?

"I'm not leaving," the Guardian says, folding her arms and giving the Warlock Lord a rather annoyed look. "You have Gameshark. He should count as five on his own," she adds, after a few moments' silent thought.

Amon begins to unseal the harp of ages, as he concentrates his magical energies and begins glowing an eerie blue, that's how much magic he's pulling out for this. "Flames of the Abyss, ice of the northern peaks, rocks of the darkest caves, winds of the high heavens, light of the greatest order and darkness of the eternal chaos, I bind thee once more to me, and upon my command the seal that hath been done is undone. DISPEL!"

And as the Sinistral completes his magical incantation, the runes and dragons bound to the sealing sphere vanish one by one, as the blue magical hue leaves his fingers and enters the sigils. Finally, the sphere is no more and the harp hovers calmly where it had been.

Amon takes Sealing Sphere of Doom.

Amon drops Element - Harp Of Ages.

<IC Chatter> Old Man From Scene 24 sighs. "I warned... I warned you all... but... but you didn't listen. Now... now is too late."

Borgan drops Element? - Plasma Heart of Uulgron.

Borgan drops Element - Ultimate Groovetron Power.

General Scales is silent as he looks to where Wario is frowning as he takes a position near the Warlock, looking to the ship for a few seconds as a pair of soldiers come out as he continues to speak in his native tongue, <"Wake up the fool.">, the pair salute as they move over to the tub wincing as they look at Wario then to Scales, jumping back when they notice the look the General is giving them but continue to stay a few steps away from the hot tub

<IC Chatter> Mortimer McMire says, "Back again, old man?"

Ashton Anchors's eyes flash blue "Let's forget about the bickering about numbers for now. Let's just get on with it."

<IC Chatter> Wario says, "*snoring sounds*"

The Warlock Lord turns his head toward Wolf. "Your turn."

<IC Chatter> Amon says, "Then the end is nigh."

<IC Chatter> Wolf O'Donnell says, "Really? Well that sucks, these asses are supposed to pay me for bringing my element."

<Hero-IC> Krystal can be heard pacing in the Grand Hall. "Waiting? This is nothing. Try waiting while trapped in a crystaline prison sometime. If that doesn't teach one patience, nothing does..."

<IC Chatter> Jair says, "Hey, I wanted to listen to you. Sort of."

<IC Chatter> Amon says, "The end of the anomaly that is, fuahahahah..."

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "OOC Here comes EVERQUEST! C.C"

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "Better late than never, old man."

<IC Chatter> Red Mage says, "Greetings, Old One."

<IC Chatter> Gameshark says, "**ck the end."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Indeed.>>"

The Dragon Warrior glances over at Jair, then turns back to The Warlock Lord. "I am not here with them. I am here because I want to make sure that if anything dangerous comes out of that thing, it won't get far." As if reminded by something, he folds his hands together, and concentrates, in a flash of light, The Dragon Warrior is clad in his most powerful equipment, the Loto Sword and Loto Armor.

Borgan spends a few moments fussing with the globe, until it pops open along an invisible seam. Inside is the Heart; he keeps it very close to him, but he /does/ show it to the others. As for the other? Well, he could start dancing...

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "It seems we have angered someone..."

<IC Chatter> Mewtwo says, "<And so the old one finally returns...>"

<IC Chatter> Old Man From Scene 24 sighs.

<IC Chatter> Old Man From Scene 24 says, "Farewell."

<IC Chatter> Mortimer McMire says, "Mind telling us why you're sighing?"

<IC Chatter> Wario says, "*snort* *snoring*"

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "We started this and we have to see it through..."

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "You were never very clear in your warnings."

Wolf O'Donnell drops Element? - Quad Damage.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "... why do I think I should have just stayed in bed this morning..."

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "I imagine that he exists because of the anomaly. We seal the anomaly... he is gone."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Because he's finally agreed to become a Terran pie. C'mere, old man....>>"

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "I have a bad feeling about this.<tm>"

<IC Chatter> Ashton Anchors says, "<Ururun> Can we cease any talk of doom and the end of the world? It's the end of nothing, for now. Let's just deal with whatever is about to happen, then get out of this place."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "You just had to say that didn't you.."

Jair headjerks towards TDW. "Consider him with me.. and I'm here as a representative of Kal Torlin, not as one of the heroes." Woot.

Lady A sets her stance. "So be it," she says to the Warlock. "Sorry, but...we stay. If whatever comes out of that is hostile, you MIGHT want the backup."

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "Yes. I did."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "You know something bad is going to happen because of that."

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "It probably would have anyway."

Samus Aran nods in agreement with Lady A. "that is, if we're not making an enormous mistake by bringing these elements together..." she mutters.

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "My, aren't we all optimistic"

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "Yes. Yes, we are."

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "At least no one has said it can't get any worse."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "CUBE!!"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor facefaults audiably.

As the last element is dropped... all begin to float and glow with energy... The Quad floats, locking into the ring, which pierces the manifesto and the plasma heart... The harp begins to play, and the shoe begins to tap with the Ultimate Groovetron power.

The crystal shimmers... and vanishes, along with ALL of the other elements.

In their place... a key-shaped shaft of energy, which pulses, and shoots up into the Anomaly, which pulses, and begins to collapse on itself...

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "If the end comes now, I can say I have lived my life the way it should have been. I have no regrets."

<Hero-IC> The Guardian says, "Hush, all of you... if something horrible comes out, I'll stop it."

Jim Raynor and his troops shift nerverously and Crystal comments to Lady A. "Pardon me but we might want to have both groups ready to call for backup if something nasty comes out of the portal..."

<Hero-IC> Armadon facepalms. Loud;y, having a big face and palm.

Gameshark has disconnected.

Wart scoffs at Jair's claim. He doesn't particularly care about TDW, but still, he remains silent, just watching. Finally, the elements combine...and turn into a key that seems to be locking the anomaly. "Whoa..." is all he says. The shyguy peering over his head, meanwhile, blinks. You can't really tell, but it is. "Oooohhhh....pretty fireworks."

White Mage steps back with a gasp as all of this happens, "Something tells me...this thing is about to go off...."

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "...Er, the end? What? What you guys talking about?"

The Warlock Lord stares, watching as the shaft of energy plunges upward. His face is filled with wonder, and he can do no more than stare. In all of his years... "Magnificent..."

Red Mage nods, and keeps writing...

Another warp zone cracks open, and Sonic the Hedgehog burst through in a skid, going from the speed of sound to a dead stop in less than a second. In his hands is a brown paper bag, though the contents are unknown. The hedgehog aims a short glare in Talimar's direction, but that's cut short as soon as he sees the strange shaft of energy. "What the heck? What have I missed?" Sonic lets the bag drop to the side, swings his arms a few times, then eyes the energy cautiously.

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "I doubt it will be the end. If it were things would be a little more... tense."

Wolf O'Donnell folds his hands over his chest, and yawns a little bit, "Oh goodie, it's doing something flashy." He mutters, "Let's just get this over with so I can get paid."

Ashton Anchors only reacts for now by grabbing his swords, to be ready for anything. His eyes have flashed red again, meaning Gyoro is in charge.

<IC Chatter> The anomaly pulses, and begins to collapse in on itself.

"Interesting" says Mortimer, he got a rather good view of the elements combining fomr his position on his hover platform. He does another scan.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says nothing but the Science Vessel Captain who is with his party. "Energy levels are starting to rise in the anomaly. ... Wait not its... What is happening? I have never seen anything like it before!"

Cube is calm, watching the anomaly. "The die is cast, now we must wait."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<You've never seen anything before, cyborg.>>"

<Hero-IC> Cody yaaaaaaaaawns. "What's happenin' now? I just woke up and.....why is there a blue teddybear lookin' thing sleepin' on my chest?"

Drifting back slowly, Borgan gains a firm grip on his staff again when the key-energy launches up into the Anomaly. He doesn't pale, not that even if he did it would be very visible on his face. And, very quietly under his breath, he whispers something he hasn't said in decades. A very quick prayer. It's not particularly faithful to Althena and seems to use the word 'me' a lot, but hey, it's a prayer.

Wario continues to be asleep, most likely snoring through the apocalypse.

The Guardian's only motion is to turn her head upwards, watching the anomaly with a calm expression on her generically-pleasant features.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Ya know Nargil I thought you would have a sense to keep your self alive but you don't even have that."

Amon watches with...boredom on his face. "Do not dissapoint me..." He says idly at the anomaly as he walked to be beside the warlock. Should there be a battle ensuing he did not wish to be in a lone corner after all. He does not summon his pike nor his battle armor just yet.

Jair lowwhistles. "That's the second biggest collapsing anomaly I've ever seen!" Jair pauses, then opens his mouth to say something.. then just shakes his head and keeps watching.

Samus Aran tenses a bit, her arms going to her sides as she watches the anomaly begin collapsing inwards.

Lady A doesn't have a comment, either. She's seen many things in her lifetime. But this IS among the most spectacular...one of the most uncertain. She waits, her eyes glittering with reflected light.

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Jim, lemme explain something verrrrrry simple. I. Can't. Move. My minions are not in place to affect things. Therefore, feel free to take your opinions, shove 'em in a pipe, smoke 'em, and then shove the ashes and your attitude where the sun doesn't shine, Terran.>>"

Carlie just stares up at the massive anomaly, looking rather in awe of it like most here, "Pwetty...wonder what's gonna happen now?" She idly muses while rocking from one foot to the other.

Gui comments idly, "The Overmind's death was more impressive than this."

Red Mage stops writing now. "All there is to do is wait."

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Well that was a creative insult for once. I did not know you had it in you."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Jim, you can't choose a decent leader...I'm surprised you know what day of the week it is.>>"

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "I get this impending feeling things have not gone as planned..."

Wario starts mumbling about popcorn, and rolls over and puts his feet up. They're worse than his back.

Gameshark has connected.

<Hero-IC> Sonic the Hedgehog says, "We planned this?"

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "No, really?"

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "Someone may have."

The Dragon Warrior pulls his Silver Shield off his back, and draws the Loto Sword. "I don't like this..."

<Hero-IC> Sonic the Hedgehog says, "...Whatever it is, it's coming, so be ready for anything guys."

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "I mean, gesh! It's a overdramatic event in all videoland that might annaliath all life as we know it, by what I gathered. Something /WILL/ go wrong. It's just the law."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Tell me about it."

<Hero-IC> The Guardian says, "If something does, I'll stop it. I promise."

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "Stay calm... Panicing or worrying solves nothing. Let us see how this turns out. I am sure that it has just as much chance of ending for the better as it does in the worse."

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "...What I saide wasent really reassurating, was it?"

<Hero-IC> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> If something can go wrong, it will? Heh, I've experienced that myself. Hopefully it won't happen again though. But, if something DOES go wrong, we'll just have to deal with it, easy as that."

General Scales ignores the SharpClaws as he focuses on the anomaly the pair deciding that the order is cancelled as they head back to the ship, he crosses his arms as he waits, "This should be interesting."

<Hero-IC> Cody says, "......sooooooo, I take it somethin' bad's happening?"

<Hero-IC> The Dragon Warrior says, "I have to concentrate on what's going on here, so I'm turning the radio off."

The anomaly... stablizes... but... wait. Something is coming.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "You ain't alone in this Guardian. Your one of us, we ain't going to leave you behind like Menks did to Sarah."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..."

Mortimer McMire scans a bit more.

Crazy Hand arrives from Ultimate Warp Zone.

Crazy Hand has arrived.

Lady A gets ready as the anomaly starts to change... her paddle held out as if to deflect any oncoming damage.

The Warlock Lord stares. He KNOWS. Something is happening. With a flare of dark light, the Staff of Gehenna appears in the Warlock Lord's hands as he casts about with his senses...

Wario suddenly wakes up on hearing something in his radio. "Whowhatwhere-awhenwhyi'llkillthebastichthatwould-atake-amymoney-a... huh? How'd I-a get here? And-a what's with that-a funny voice? And where are-a my clothes?" He still has the swimsuit, though.

<Hero-IC> Afgncaap says, "I'm sensing a LOT of magic ... Something BIG is happening!"

Wart merely watches. However, as something starts coming out, he quickly digs into his pocket. Fishing something out of it, he quickly pulls out....an apple? "no, that ain't it...AHAH!!!" Finally, he grabs it: The Crystal of Water. QUickly putting it on his talisman, he looks up, even as the something starts to come out of the Anomaly. "This ain't good."

Cube watches, his own scanners aimed at anything that might come out. It is not the portal that matters, but what comes through it.

Sonic the Hedgehog closes his fists, and his quills tense. Whatever is coming, if it's dangerous, he's gonna be ready for it.

Gameshark says, "Holy sh*t"

The Guardian reaches behind herself to pull out her trusty blaster, stepping slightly forwards of Lady A - although to the side of her, not in front of the Gamemaster as she'd offered.

Mortimer McMire is typing on his scanner with one hand, and has his Martian Atomizer in the other.

Mortimer McMire does not look up, though.

Borgan already had his staff. All he does is clench it tighter when he sees /something/ moving, not that he can make out what it is from down here. And slowly he starts to drift upwards, to get a look /over/ everyone else's heads. Now if he went at a decent speed, this might be more helpful.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Maybe your right on the leaders part, but one can only learn from their mistakes. Your Queen of blades made one mistake. She let me and my troops live.""

Ashton Anchors has swords. Two of them. And he has them out now, ready for, well, anything. The omnious laughing isn't helping things either. In the midst of it, Gyoro asides to Ururun "If Indalecio walks out of here, I'm going to slice his head off..."

Samus Aran hmms. "....this is not an improvement." she notes dryly, raising her gun arm quickly to cover the anomaly.

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. You Amused Her. That bought you a pass on death this time.>>"

White Mage throws back her robes to pull out Mesamune and looks to the laughing, "I tried to tell you all..."

<IC Chatter> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> Gentlemen, Zergs, please, is this REALLY the time?"

Wario quickly jumps through a nearby warp zone, and returns a few minutes later decently clad, and ready to fight whatever it is. HOOHA!

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Sad thing about the Zerg is, Nargil is the only Cerbrate with something comming near to having a personality."

Amon simply calls his spiritual force as a shielding sphere around him. "Twould seem we have gotten something we did not expect." He says, as he turns to the warlock. "Should we perhaps subdue it?" He says, with a smirk and a fireball in a palm that implies what kind of subduing he's implying.

Jair shares the same knowage as The Warlock Lord, and as such, in a similar flare of light (though this one silver-white), the Staff of Ages forms itself in Jair's hands. He glances sidelong towards The Dragon Warrior. "As Kal Torlin's champion, it's your job to be the meat shield." Jair scampers backwards and stands behind TDW.

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Yes. If you listen to this Terran, I'm either going to live, in which case I can happily terrorize, taunt, and hurt him later, or I will cease existing, in which case I might as well enjoy making his last minutes hell. By the way...the transformation process of your mate-to-be was quite painful to her.>>"

<IC Chatter> Krystal says, "Uh, if you two haven't noticed.. The possible end of the world is happening. PUT A SOCK IN IT ALREADY! This isn't the time for a pissing contest. I swear, men..."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<...what's a "pissing contest"...?"

Red Mage sighs, and draws PowerOath. "I guess I was wrong..." His battle gear flares out around him, and his eyes start to glow.

Wolf O'Donnell pulls back his trenchcoat and reaches inside, drawing out his AR-35 and a clip for it, "Ah, yes. It's almost ready to begin." He slams the clip inside and pulls back the slide, "Alright, whatever you are. I'm about to make fifty million off this, so you'd better go back to wherever the hell it is you can from."

Crazy Hand says, "ATTENTION, FOOLS! THANK YOU FOR RELEASING ME!" The hand lands on the destination with a ground-shaking pound, snapping its fingers jauntily. "FOR THIS, ALL OF YOU DESERVE AN EXTRA-SPECIAL REWARD FROM ME! I AM CRAZY HAND, LOCKED AWAY IN THE GREY AREA BETWEEN REALITY AND VIDEOLAND FOR THESE MANY YEARS... BUT NOW... I AM FREE! AND FOR YOUR REWARD... A HIGHLY IRONIC, SUPREMELY ENTERTAINING, AND EXCRUIATINGLY PAINFUL... DEATH!"

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "... I know that Nargil. I already seen my world end Krystal...Anyhow the dragon is right, Nargil we will talk later..."

Cube says, "Oh crap."

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "Oh crap."

Wario yells at the hand. "SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sonic the Hedgehog says, "You first, creep."

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "I would never have though the end of the world to be a giant glove."

<IC Chatter> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> What's a... Crazy Hand?"

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "Oh crap."

"Bah, that's what we all say," Morty says calmly, refering the Villains in general.

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<...you got me all worked up...over...A FRIGGIN' GLOVE?>>"

Carlie blinks, falling over onto her butt when suddenly the giant hand lands down on the platform as she stands up and panics, "Waaaaah! Carlie dun wanna die!"

Lady A is not amused. Her left hand reaches for, and holds out, her gun, aiming it for the Hand. "All right. Bring it," she says. Understated indeed.

<IC Chatter> Red Mage says, "Highly ironic, no?"

White Mage pulls Mesamune ready to walk slowly for the hand, mumbling, "I told you...it was evil...not good..."

Borgan starts to lower again once the hand slams into the ground. He floats. He need not worry about ground-pounding slams! His left hand sets three small glass orbs spinning about him counterclockwise, already glowing with magic. They don't make any offensive actions, though. All he has is his staff.

Ashton Anchors blinks a few times, and shrugs, looking back at the other heros gathered "So do you guys want to start off, or shall we?" He seems completely unimpressed by the newcomer.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "OPEN FIRE!"

The Dragon Warrior settles into a defensive stance. "What the hell is this thing?! A giant /HAND/?!" He raises the Loto Sword over his head, waiting for the Powerful Palm of Peril to make the first move.

Wart growls at the Hand. "Oh, you freak. You gonna kill ME?! Well, let's see just how well you do THAT, fool. HEADS UP!!!" WIth that, the crystal glows blue. A rather deep, ominous blue. And suddenly....it fades. Blinking, he looks at the Water Crystal. "WHAT!! WHAT IS THIS?! WORK YOU PIECE OF CRAP!!!" Beating on the artifact, his growls. Finally, fed up, he thrusts it into his pocket again. "Ok...I don't got my crystal, but I got enough brawn to feed you to the cobrats. Lets boogie boys!!" That last bit is said pretty much to everyone. He sets himself down in a stance, cracking his knuckles as he gets ready to brawl.

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "The end of the World is a giant hand?"

It is one thing to offer death, but another to threaten the Sinistral of Chaos with it. "I think not. I know not who nor what you are..." He says, as his aura intensifies to a blinding flare, his armor shifting as he goes in full battle readyness. "But this world is not yours, and you shall be returned from whence you came." He then slams both bladelances on the ground, creating a few sparks to elaborate his point.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says nothing but Gui says, "Well its not what I expected..."

General Scales smirks as he quickly heads back to the ship and climbs aboard saying, "All men to battle stations!", he looks towards Crazy Hand not caring what or who it is saying, "Finally a chance to get back into battle!", several cannons move into position as the engines starts

The Warlock Lord's staff begins to glow. "Never. I will not die until I have smashed the last remnants of the Circle of Twelve. You, a large glove, are not going to stop me. And you are not going to destroy the world before Mother Brain has a chance to rule it." He holds his staff high. "...I can't believe I'm saying this... FOR VIDEOLAND!"

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "... The hell? A glove?"

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<More like annoying. Hmmmm. Pie.>>"

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "I have fought with towering beast so large I could only hit their heads and hands. Do not underestimated it... It could be just part of a larger creature."

<Hero-IC> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> Yes a glove, we've all had a chance to be amazed by the sheer stupidity of this, so let's just tear the heck out of it and be on our way."

Maya Amano has arrived.

<IC Chatter> General Scales says, "Whether these moments are the last or not, let the battle begin."

<Hero-IC> Carlie says, "What's a giant glove gonna do?"

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "Into battle... FOR VIDEOLAND!"

Samus Aran hmmphs. "A hand. Now I've seen everything." she notes, the tip of her gun arm glowing, then extruding a missile. "Big hand. but still a hand.

The Guardian glances at the size and apparent mass of the hand, and then back up to the sky - to see if that anomaly is still open. She elects, too, to put the blaster in a ready-at-hand hardpoint on her armor, withdrawing the slim tube emitter for her saber-laser and resting a finger on the activation switch.

Boss Imp has arrived.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "As a firend of mine once said let our actions speak for us!"

<Hero-IC> Samus Aran says, "I vote we attempt to get this hand back into the anomaly...""

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "Do you need any more help down there?"

<Hero-IC> Jair is still here. Ha ha. "I vote we KILL IT UNTIL IT DIES."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "So it can get out again?"

<Hero-IC> Ashton Anchors says, "<Gyoro> I second that vote."

Jim Raynor and his troops get their weapons ready for whatever is comming out of this thing. Some of the marines mutter about what the heck could be comming though this thing. Then as crazy hand makes its threat Jim bellows the order. "BURN IT BOYS!!" Cue up Dancing Mad from FF3/6 Then the marines and other Terrans level this weapons at the crazy glove/hand thing. Then Crystal says, "Why Warlock Lord you sound almost Heroic, its kinda cute." Then The Terran Squad opens fire as Gui and his Firebats charge into melee range. Current mission objectives? Destroy the hand!

<IC Chatter> Wario says, "Where's-a that-a senile old guy-a?"

<IC Chatter> Borgan says, "He ran away."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<...didn't he then get skewered by a hydralisk, Jim?>>"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Killl it!"

<IC Chatter> White Mage says, "He got out of dodge...."

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Nope he killed the Overmind several hours later."

<IC Chatter> Red Mage says, "No more Mr. Man."

<Hero-IC> Cody says, "Giant.....glove....threatening the world. Ok, now I KNOW I ain't in Kansas anymore..."

<IC Chatter> Wario says, "(muffled italian cursing)"

Gades has arrived.

Camu has left.

Gades takes Camu.

Jim Raynor strikes Crazy Hand with his Terran Forces charge attack.

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Meh. Whatever. He did a cruddy job of it, and all those Protoss look the same after a while...No facial features. and they really don't taste good.>>"

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "funny why would you say that Nargil? the Overmind was killed..."

<Hero-IC> The Guardian says, "... I - I think I might be scared... this is so strange..."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Oh God no... could the Overmind be alive again?"

Ashton Anchors humphs "I can't believe this. And here I thought this was going to be a big deal." His eyes flash red again "Well, that's it. I've had enough. Let's see how well that glove burns then?" The red dragon head on Ashton's back closes it's mouth for a moment, before releasing a rather large fireball towards the gloved one.

Ashton Anchors strikes Crazy Hand with his Fireball! attack.

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "Um, hello, focus here. Can we worry about the glove and then end of the world first?"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "If we surive this, I'm sending a team to Auri and a scout force to charr..."

<IC Chatter> Mewtwo says, "<Heros.. Villians alike.. consider this your warning. Do not underestimate this new arrival just on looks. If it is -anything- like the Master Hand.. it will be extremely powerful...>"

<Hero-IC> The Hero Of Spielburg says, "Being scared is alright, Guardian! But do not be overwhelemed by it! You are a Hero, like all of us! ...That glove of whatever I heard about cannot be THAT powerfull! Show 'em what it's mean to mess with Videoland!"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Understood Mewtwo."

Wolf O'Donnell smirks a bit, and twirls his rifle around on a finger, before he aims at the hand, "No one destroys me when I've got money on the line, ass." He murmers, as he pulls the trigger, spraying a burst of armor piercing bullets right at Crazy Hand, "Chew on this!"

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "OOC Mischan, Jim? ;)"

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "I'm scared out of my wits have the time."

Wolf O'Donnell strikes Crazy Hand with his AR-35 Armor Piercing Burst attack.

Well, looks like Morty is done with his scanning. "You're screwed" says Gannalech, the AI from the Omegamatic. "Bah, that's what they always say," Morty says. Floating away from Crazy Hand on his hover platform, he glances up, raises his Atomizer and... *ZOP*

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Understood Mewtwo."

Mortimer McMire misses Crazy Hand with his Martion Atomizer attack.

Wario's hat suddenly falls off, for no apparent reason. Does Crazy Hand have eyes? Let's find out.

White Mage runs up to the hand with a cry, seeming un afraid at the moment, slashing at the hand, then running like heck for safety. She's brave...not stupid. :)

White Mage misses Crazy Hand with her Mesamune Attack attack.

Wario misses Crazy Hand with his The hair that is much more otherworldly than Crazy Hand stun attack.

Boss Imp suddenly lands into the area with a resounding *THUD*, piloting his heavy robo boss imp armor while a set of cybernetic attachments are bonded to his limbs while cackling as he turns his impressive machine towards the Crazy Hand, "Well.....you big overgrown freakish looking glove. I hope you come with a warrenty because you're going to need it!" And with that machine starts swinging its massive sized morningstar spiked sphere lauchers towards it.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Fear is something natural that can keep you alive or get you killed."

Boss Imp strikes Crazy Hand with his Double Spiked Mace Laucher smash attack.

Borgan's eyes narrow as he stares at Crazy Hand. At first he does nothing, testing the measure of his 'target' for a few moments. His attack is not particularly powerful, but it /is/ unexpected (maybe) as it starts nowhere near him. Over the Hand appears a collection of rocks that drop down towards it. Hopefully they can keep him busy while he wracks his mind for something /truly/ destructive.

Borgan misses Crazy Hand with his weak Asteroid Break attack.

The Dragon Warrior charges Crazy Hand, sword raised above his head. "I don't know what the hell you are, but you won't be killing /anyone/ today!" With a mighty leap, The Dragon Warrior springs into the air towards Crazy Hand, slashing downwards as he falls.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "Can anyone get a reading on this thing or might know something about this thing?"

The Dragon Warrior strikes Crazy Hand with his Not the Braver Limit Break attack.

Gameshark eyes Crazy Hand as he emerges from the Anomoly and proceeds to reply, "You know.. You really begin to annoy me and annoying me is bad. I could probably destroy you with a simple set of codes, but HELL! Lets make this fun and allow EVERYONE to join in." and with that he begins typing a set of codes into his GBA, while sending a few transmissions to various people.

The Dark Gamemaster usually doesn't ally himself with anyone but his fellow GMs, but this will be a special occasion. The GBA quickly respond, whining loudly as it seems the whole area is seeming to be effected. Swirls go around everyone, including himself and Videoland's newest threat. "Get Ready Videoland because here we go! VIDEO FIGHT READY!" and then the codes begin to take effect, as everyone begins to feel a slight tingleing sensation. Also all videolanders begin to feel faster and can endure so much more, almost as if their power has been amplified for mere moments. However, Crazy probably isn't the most fortunate as codes begin to take their effects too, as any and all status effects begin to fade, maybe never to return again!

Gameshark says, "GO!!!!!!!!"

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "... Grr.. That's it! I watched one world be destroyed, another nearly so, I can't just sit here and wait for the entire universe to be threatened.."

Cube sends a message to Gameshark, asking for help in a dual tech. That help is given. "Before we fight, we must prepair! UPGREAT!" The enire area flashes, giving everyone a boost in speed power and accuracy. Behold, the power of using a cheat to enhanse a powerup, rather than to create one out of whole cloth.

Gameshark strikes Crazy Hand with his trivial Code: Status Negate! attack.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "hey I saw my home world burn Krystal, woah... that's a kicker I feel like I just was hit by a stim.. ..eh? Gameshark is here."

Crazy Hand flashes, dodging out of the way of attack after attack, though some do get through... spiked maces, fireballs, and bullets. Crazy Hand doesn't look phased in the least, springing back up into the air. "OH, YOU DIDN'T KNOW? YOUR ASS BETTER CALL SOMEBODYYYYYYY!" His fingers widen, and laser beams fire at EVERYONE who just shot at him.

Krystal has arrived.

Crazy Hand strikes Wolf O'Donnell with his Laser Blast! attack.

Crazy Hand strikes Jim Raynor with his Laser Blast! attack.

Crazy Hand strikes Cube with his Laser Blast! attack.

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "I'll have a scan of it soon..."

Gameshark says, "Woo!"

Naoya Toumou has arrived.

Well, now it's been brought. Lady A doesn't hestitate to retaliate. She pulls the trigger on her gun, loosing a single white blast out at the Crazy Hand. "You'll regret bothering to escape," she retorts, "if you thought you could destroy all of US in the process."

Lady A strikes Crazy Hand with her Berserk Blast Single Shot attack.

Red Mage starts chanting.... A spell circle opens up from underneath him, glowing a bright red. "Dorealh.... Somini... Kareleth... TOMMANCH!" His hands glow with black light, and he launches a series of fireballs at the fearsome Glove. He doesn't notice his love being pelted, or the buffs, or anything... He just goes right into the next spell...

General Scales smirks as he climbs into a cannon and aims it towards Crazy Hand, he laughs for a bit as the ship lifts off, keeping his sights on the glove saying, "All guns prepare to fire.", the soldiers quickly follow orders as weapons are aimed, Scales eyes narrowing as the ship rocks from the hits yelling, "OPEN FIRE!", several cannons open fire towards their target

Samus Aran is glad that she didn't charge forwards bravely like most of those assembled. That looked painful. Still, she's perfectly willing to stay in standoff distance, the missile she extruded before launching with a roar as it spirals inwards towards the hand, leaving a trail of smoke behind it as Samus flips backwards.

Samus Aran strikes Crazy Hand with her Eat this! attack.

Red Mage misses Crazy Hand with his Fireball Barrage attack.

Wart watches at Crazy Hand shoots at numerous people, glaring. The shyguy on his head merely hides in part of his cloak, still somewhat affected by the fact of an evil giant hand coming about to destroy them all. "Ok....so you wanna play, fool? Howzabout this!!!" QUickly, he sucks in a rather large breath. HOlding it, his cheeks puff up wide. Finally, he lets loose. A giant bubble to outdo all bubbles (at least the ones Wart's made). And it's headed right toward CH's palm. "HEADS UP, MUTHA*#$#($&#*!!.....grack it all, now the TV's getting to me!!!"

Cyber Chao hops off the scv as the blast comes in, circleing around behind the Crazy Hand.

Boss Imp suddenly gets blasted hard by the weaponry as the energy shocks his suit and causes it to overload for a moment before as the controlls are on the fritz and just steam and overheat till the system cools down.

White Mage shrieks as she is struck with the laser, it searing into her skin briefly. She then runs back, "I didn't even hit the guy..." The Mesamune rushes forward as it stabs toward the hand...staying there now. Crazy Mage.

Wart misses Crazy Hand with his SUUUUUUUUUUUPAAAAA BUBBLE BLAAAAAAAST!! attack.

White Mage strikes Crazy Hand with her Mesamune Slash attack.

Amon observes the assault as the upgreat effect has absolutely no effect on him. One of the disadvantages of being a superbeing, your power is maxed out permanantly. His Chaos Aura flares dangerously as lightning erupts from his feet, his lances taking a golden hue as well. Watching the laser assault strike everyone, he sees this is not one to be trifled with. "Show no mercy to this fiend, Infernal fury of the abyss, SUNDER!" As a highly explosive fireball leaves the aura, heading for the flying hand

General Scales strikes Crazy Hand with his Explosive Broadside! attack.

Amon misses Crazy Hand with his Sunder attack.

The Warlock Lord growls, even as he feels the dual support spells from Gameshark and Cube affect him. "This ends!" He waves his staff at Crazy Hand, a black arc screaming toward him.

Borgan, thinking of which spell to use next, is interrupted twice - first by suddenly feeling quite a lot better about his current strength, and second by a big laser beam that his shield simply does not reflect. The first is good. The second causes him to recoil black, shielding his face with a heavily magically armoured robe. Hurt, but not out. With his increased attack power, he simply throws the spear at the Hand, point-first.

Well now, this'll be interesting. All those assaults, and the hand doesn't seem hurt. Ashton on the other hand is quite hurt, but meh, he's seen worse. He grunts "Ok then... new plan of action." If fireballs don't work as well, Ashton takes a running leap at the hand, and delivers a fury of slashes in mid air before landing.

The Warlock Lord strikes Crazy Hand with his Black Arc attack.

Ashton Anchors misses Crazy Hand with his Fury Slash attack.

Borgan strikes Crazy Hand with his Idiot Borgan! Staves With Points Are Not Javelins! attack.

Carlie has been ducking down for now. Doging the blasts of everything while it was erupting. Soon she stands up and looks towards Crazy Hand, "Carlie not gunna let you beat everyone up! Crazy hand! You're going to get a really big spanking!" Suddenly she focuses her energy and begins a summon spell. Then finishes the chating as a huge pair of demonic fiends appear out of nowhere and start to attack Crazy Hand.

Wario jumps up, then comes back down on Crazy (hopefully), and bounces off if he hits. Wario Stomp time!

Carlie misses Crazy Hand with her Fiendish Summon smash attack.

Wario strikes Crazy Hand with his Wario Stomp smash attack.

Wolf O'Donnell gets laser blasted! And that sucks, because he doesn't get upgraded, either, "Damn, now I'm pissed off." He growls, as he draws a /second/ AR-35 from his trenchcoat, and then aims them both up at Crazy Hand, "Hoo hah!"

Wooh the effects of stims without the hp loss, Jim and all his troops feel the effect of Gameshark's code. Its the next best thing to using power overhwleming. Well Jim and his troops take fire from the Crazy hand but so far no one is down yet and they keep shooting meanwhile Gui and his firebats get to melee level their flame throwers up at Crazy hand as Gui says, "Welcome to my BBQ! Okay boys turn up the heat!" Then the gauss rifle fire has the plasma fire from the Firebat's own weapons added to the assault. Meanwhile Jim gets a nice crater in his armor and just keeps on shooting. "GO! Keep it up!"

Wolf O'Donnell strikes Crazy Hand with his Dual AR-35s - Armor Piercing and Explosive smash attack.

Jim Raynor misses Crazy Hand with his Gui's BBQ with Marine support fire for flavor smash attack.

The Guardian doesn't say anything verbally, instead letting out a wordless and rather melodical series of pure, synthetic tones from her vocalizing systems - tossing back the laser saber and drawing out the simple, reliable fusion cannon... the one that had been provisionally translated as a 'type six' by her onboard systems. And then, after taking a half-second to target the towering glove, she fires a rapid, crackling series of the glowing translucent balls, gripping the cannon with both hands!

And...there is anoter newly arrived person coming in the Final Destination, a Dark-Blue Aura of energy surrounding the...well, giant! That's right kids: Gades the Sinistral of Destruction is in da house, man! Fully Armored, at that! Look at that scareh full battle armor! And that HUGE sword floating at his side!

...And his first reaction to the current fight? "...What in blazes..? This is REALLY a big ha--" And his statement is cut as he see the lasers coming out of the fingers...And shakes his head, leveling a hand troward the Crazy Hand, gathering his own Spiritual Energy. The arm first glow softy with the usual Dark Blue energies...gathering at the top of the hand into a huge ball of sparkling energies. Wich he throw after the giant animate-godlike glove. Yelling, of course.. "FACE THE WRATH OF THE SINISTRALS!"

The Guardian strikes Crazy Hand with her Type Six Fusion Cannon! Love and Justice! attack.

Gades strikes Crazy Hand with his Destruct-o Ball attack.

Jair steps back seeing the huge-arse laser.. thing. And then he twirls the Staff of Ages, mounting it on his shoulder bazooka-style. Mumbling fervently under his breath, the orb on the staff glows brightly.. and then a blast of energy, shaped like a missile, bursts out of the weapon, streaking towards Crazy Hand. SUCK IT DOWN!

Cube gets blasted by the first wave of the attack, and sends back a much different wave of energy. This is part of Cube's scanning efforts, and much may be learned of how the energy is reflected, absorbed, and how it travels through. That's why Cyber Chao went around behind, to see what goes through. Oh, and the energy might just blind Crazy Hand for a moment, it is bright and flashy.

Cube strikes Crazy Hand with his Research stun attack.

Jair strikes Crazy Hand with his Magic Missile (seriously.) attack.

<Hero-IC> Krystal comments lately, "Then you know how I feel Jim. It was my homeworld that was destroyed. If there is anything I can do, I won't let such a fate befall another, less the entirty of Videoland...

Sonic the Hedgehog isn't going to stand by for the whole fight. The heroic hedgehog waits for a moment to see when the hand is vulnerable, crossing his arms and tapping as he does so. After the giant had fires, the blue blur speeds towards Crazy, leaping into the air and curling into a spiky ball, surrounded with blue energy. Sonic burst towards Crazy Hand in midair, trying to smash into it.

Sonic the Hedgehog strikes Crazy Hand with its Homing Jump attack.

Krystal arrives, just in time to see the giant glove blast everyone. ".. Utter madness, this is.." Picking up her pace to join with the other heros, her staff expanding to it's full size as she pulls it out.

Morty is hit. From his hover platform, you can hear the sounds of the many bips crewing it yelling, "Abandon ship!" "Run away!" "I wet myself!" With that, the hover platform explodes. Many yellow bips with parachutes fall out, then disappear in blue teleport beams. Morty falls down. Unfortunetly, one must remember that he was hovering AROUND Final Destination, not over it. He falls, and barely maanged to grab onto the edge of the main platform.

"Damn," he says, as he dangles from his precarious hold on the edge of the platform, glancing down at Pong far below. Thankfully, he was hit with that UpGreat from Cube, and is able to kinda pull himself up. Resting now on his elbows, though his torso and legs continue dangling above the abyss, Morty raises his Martion Atomizer again, and fires another blast.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Cube see if you can find any thing on this monster in the Palace's computer systems. Well if you can get an uplink. Well some how after arrivign here in videoland, I found my homeworld was well sort of livable again.. really odd. Anyhow lets deal wit this thing."

The Dragon Warrior takes the Laser Blast in the chest, and staggers backwards, his breastplate smoking. "Argh!" He winces at the burning pain in his chest, but doesn't let it stop him from continuing his assault. The Dragon Warrior extends his fist, which burns with fiery energy. One after another, his fingers flick outwards, sending off a ball of fire at Crazy Hand each time. Once his hand is completely open, five fireballs have been launched out at the demonic glove.

Mortimer McMire strikes Crazy Hand with his Dammit, when I say *ZOP*, I expect you to *ZOP*!!! attack.

The Dragon Warrior strikes Crazy Hand with his Firebal Barrage attack.

Gameshark urks as he is struck by the vicious blast from Crazy Hand, the lasers themselves tearing into him and his clothing. Whats this? Travis appears to be more concerned with his clothes rather than himself? Thats a shocker. He growls loudly and calls out to the psycho being, "Alright! Now that was uncalled for. I was hoping to save this for another day, but it appears I got no choice. Time to unleash a special for all to see." and with that the GM snaps his fingers and calls out, "W1R3|) form GO!"

With that, The Dark Gamemaster begins to burst into a blaze of solid light and before long he appears out of his Game Over form and into... -W1R3D-! The GM looks very different, nearly all silver and blue with various prefreals set all over him. He reaches forth and connects his controller to his belt, typing in commands and before long summoning options from Gradius. "Alright you son of a bitch. Eat SUPER NOVA!" and with that the options all fall around him as he pulls the justifier and lauches a rather devastating energy blast towards the vile fiend.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says nothing but Larry says, "If this thing says talk to the hand I'm going to freak..."

<Hero-IC> Naoya Toumou says, "Naoya here. What in the bloody blue blazes is going on? What's with the giant hand that everyone's beating on?"

Gameshark strikes Crazy Hand with his Option + GS = Super Nova! smash attack.

<Hero-IC> Captain N's radio clicks to life, finally. "Captain N, here. Somebody give me a status report? How're we doin' out there?"

<Hero-IC> Jett Becker says, "Tch. I turn off my radio for some nice, quiet target shooting and find out the multiworld's gone nuts. What the holy HELL is going on?"

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "Jim, I can't establish uplink, too much interferance, but I'm afraid it'll be an abstract. In which case the only answer will be to keep thumping it. I am processing data now."

<Hero-IC> Jair says, "Can't talk. Killing giant hand."

<Hero-IC> Samus Aran says, "Captain my captain, we are engaging a huge hand...which thus far is looking very unharmed after some very strong attacks."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Fire is pretty heavy here... and it does not even seem to feel it. Any support at the final destional would be nice."

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "I hate to say this, but... Jair... after this creature unleashes its next attack, I'll be releasing a Ray of Death. You, release a Ray of Life. We will cross the rays."

<IC Chatter> Jair says, "But.. you remember what that book in your library said, right? 'Never cross the rays.'"

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "That be like anti-matter and matter. Humm should pack a kick."

<IC Chatter> Borgan says, "Cross the blasted rays."

<IC Chatter> Cerebrate Nargil says, "<<Do it! Do it!>>"

Crazy Hand is smacked and smacked and smacked with damage, even though he's able to avoid a lot. Stunned and unstunned, blasted and blasted and blasted... but wait. He holds up a finger. "OKAY, BOYOS. PISSING ME OFF. PISSING... ME... OOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!" He throws himself on the ground, and starts to spasm all over the place.

<IC Chatter> The Warlock Lord says, "This is a different situation."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "I mean final destanation."

- Health Report for Ashton Anchors -

- Damage Accumulated: 56% -

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "Let's hope that name doesn't turn out to be ironic"

Carlie agggghhhhhs! Getting pummeled by the attack as she ends up falling off the platform from the attack. It seems Crazy Hand more power in his little pinky than Carlie does in her whole body and then some.

<Hero-IC> Jett Becker says, "On my way. SUIT UP DREADNAUGHTS."

Crazy Hand misses Samus Aran with his OOPSIE! smash attack.

Wario gets tossed around the platform, creating some minor shockwaves of his own. The up-great gave him extra weight, apparently.

<Hero-IC> The Guardian attempts to answer the good Cap'n, but her vocalization sounds like random warbling on a synthesizer than anything else. <gibberish>

White Mage stayed too close as she is flung close to the edge of the Final Destination, hitting near the edge as she staggers up, wiping blood from her mouth as she looks around, figuring healing can't possibly help in this. She then runs to hit the thing with Mesamune again...'SHE MUST SUCCEED!'

White Mage strikes Crazy Hand with her That sword attack.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Whatever this thing is its tough, very tough."

Wario strikes Crazy Hand with his weak Thashmaster 49,999.5 attack.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Don't let its look fool you Jett."

Wart cries out as he gets whapped about and slammed by a giant spazzing glove. Rolling away from the Crazy Hand, he coughs, the attack packing QUITE a punch. "Oh....this is just pissin' me off....Fine, how about you try...THIS!!!" Jumping up into the air, he finally does his froggy brethren proud with a giant bound into the air, trying to aim himself toward the hand. Finally, he starts Falling...and with a flip, he continues falling, at high speeds, right toward the Hand. "HEADS UP!!! WART BOMBER SUPREME!!!!!!" ANd yes, he's even resorting to calling out his attacks. Hey, they work in the movies.

Lady A briefly is distracted by Gameshark's yammering. What language IS that he's trying to speak? Then, the Crazy Hand goes... Crazy. Lucky for her, she's still out of the line of fire, for now. It's going to be hard to hit that hand when it's moving around like that... But she's up to the challenge. She squints an eye, and steadies her weapon with her right hand as she takes careful aim this time.

Lady A strikes Crazy Hand with her Steadied shot attack.

Wart strikes Crazy Hand with his WART BOMBER SUPREME! attack.

Samus Aran blinks as a shadow falls over her, then flips up, taking herself clear of the initial attack, then spinning agian in midair as thrusters fire on her boots, sending her sailing over the hand as it spasms, a blast of flame gouting out of her weapons arm and down towards the glove's top.

<Hero-IC> Jett Becker says, "Send me a visual."

Ashton Anchors lands from missing his attack, then <CRUNCH> He gets flattened by the rampaging hand. He stands after a moment, and grunts. Ok, not good, it's getting hard to concentrate, and when it gets hard to concentrate, the dragon's control over Ashton breaks. He pauses for a moment, trying to collect himself. Then, once he feels he's in control again, dashes at the Cra-ZEE one. His eyes flash blue again "You're too tense, why don't you 'CHILL OUT'?" The dragon head then breathes a snowstorm on Crazy hand. Ouch. The joke I mean.

Red Mage growls, and keeps on chanting. this time however, he notices the beating White Mage is getting... His body starts to glow red, and a ki aura lifts off of him. The chanting ends, and Sorival glares at Crazy Hand. "Your parole is terminated! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!" His forms fuzzes out, as he Leaps. His body comes back down, and he Dragoon Slashes the Mighty Glove.

Samus Aran strikes Crazy Hand with her Burning Hand attack.

Ashton Anchors strikes Crazy Hand with his Bad Pun! And a snowstorm too! attack.

Borgan was apparently flying a little low. Swatted off his platform, which flies off and down somewhere, he somersaults (not on purpose) backwards before popping up. Now he looks /mad/. And he's sans platform. "You infernal hand! You do /not/ knock me off my platform! I will crush you like a Twinkie!" Apparently he's going to make good on that, because he brings his hands in close to his chest before throwing something right for the hand; a tiny black ball.

Which explodes into what looks like nothing more then a black nuclear explosion, complete with mushroom cloud and tiny glowing dots within. Fortunately, he's using his power to keep it focussed on the Hand and not the people nearby, which he usually doesn't bother to do.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "*Image of a giant gloved hand in the middle of a massive melee*"

Borgan misses Crazy Hand with his Gravity Bomb smash attack.

Red Mage strikes Crazy Hand with his Crazy Mad Red Mage Draggon Style Mastery smash attack.

Amon umphs at the blow, as he is sent floating back a bit. "That...was a mistake." He says, before yelling toward Gades. "BROTHER! UNITE!" as his aura flares once more, raising a lance above his head as energy began to amass there. "Double assault, Destroyer!" as a beam of incandescent pure light fires from the tip of the lance as he does a slash motion toward the beast, intending to cut it apart or at least create some sort of gash on it...whatever it was.

Cube is too busy processing the data to dodge, and he is knocked from the SCV, which goes flying off of the platform. Good thing it can hover. Back to the fight. Cube concentrates on dodging while he trys to figure out if this thing has any weaknesses.

Amon strikes Crazy Hand with his Destroyer Combo: Galactic Lancer smash attack.

The Dragon Warrior's eyes widen as the Crazy Hand starts to have a seizure all over the place. Giant hand spasming all over the place is bad. The Dragon Warrior dashes away, moving suprisingly fast for being encased in heavy metal. Once Crazy Hand stops bouncing around, The Dragon Warrior charges back in, slashing at Crazy Hand's palm, with his sword, hopefully cutting a pentagram into the monster's, uh, cloth-flesh with the five slashes he dishes out.

Krystal watches as the glove goes berserk, frowning slightly in determination. No way she can use the quake here, too likely to hit everyone else. Instead, she tucks one end of the staff under her arm, the opposite bejeweled en glowing bright red for a moment as she aims, and then fires off a blazing fireball at the giant glove of doom. Not that her little magic is probably going to do much, but it's the effort that counts. Hopefully...

Wolf O'Donnell gets all shook up and then slides towards the edge, putting his rifles away, "Damn, I'm pissed off too, now." He growls, as he gets up, and whips out...A couple of UNMC Frag Grenades. He pulls back with his right hand and hurls one of them right up at Crazy Hand.

The Dragon Warrior strikes Crazy Hand with his Pentagram Cutter smash attack.

Wolf O'Donnell misses Crazy Hand with his Frag Grenade attack.

Krystal strikes Crazy Hand with her Fire Blaster attack.

<Hero-IC> Jett Becker says, "... What ... the hell?"

General Scales smirks as he quickly gives an order, the ship moving out of range, the figurehead seeming to come to life as he says, "I don't care how mad you are, your about to leave in pieces!", he climbs out of the cannon which is quickly taken over by a soldier as he focuses on Crazy Hand, "Fire!", the dragon-head opens its mouth widen before launching a snowhorn sized fireball

Boss Imp is smacked by the Crazy Hand as well, but thankfully the hit somehow knocked his engine's system's back into alignment as it starts up again. "Alright! Bwhahahha! Now its time to show you the true power of the generic monster clan's might!" And with that he begins tapping a lot of buttons on the console of his machine as a giant Imp Bomb shaped like a football appears in place of one of the spiked maces as the arm winds up and he lauches the giant football shaped bomb towards Crazy Hand.

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "...."

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Now I have seen everything."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "... I know ."

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "Flatland is worse."

Whatever it is that Gameshark had done, it's certainly invigorating the Guardian at the moment. She leaps up into the air, a good three yards from a standstill, and then begins to spin and retract her legs, the thrusters deploying along with the rest of her flight armor...

And she breaks away. Is she running? The quick, shallow turn proves otherwise, and she begins to fly, slowly and steadily - practically hovering! - towards the flailing hand. And the power-coils at the sides of her wings warm up, and twin beams of crackling light shine forth towards the wicked Glove!

<Hero-IC> Cold Old Lady A says, "Oh, I doubt you have."

Boss Imp strikes Crazy Hand with his Long Bomb attack.

General Scales misses Crazy Hand with his Mammoth Fireball smash attack.

<Hero-IC> Street Fighter Ryu says, "Should I ask?"

The Guardian strikes Crazy Hand with her Hyper Laser smash attack.

Gades is still floating where he shown up first of all from the Warp Gate...Wich is pretty much why he not strampled to hades and back, for the most part. He give a short nod troward his Brother...Yes, the signal have been given.

That thing - whatever it is - will suffer the power and the wrath of the Sinistrals.

Gades's Dark-Blue Aura flares up as well at the same time of Amon, the mighty Sword-using immortal raising his sword in the air. "Very well! DESTROYER!" He spin the sword in a circle motion, leaving a trail of energy...wich quickly fill up and looks like a saw...spinning and spinning. He 'takes' it with an opened hand and...tosses it like a freesbee.

It is is, folks, the move you all waited for: "DESTRUCT-O....! DISC!"

Bamf.

Jett Becker arrives from Space War Zone.

Jett Becker has arrived.

Naoya Toumou drops from one of the innumerable warps lining the infinity of Final Destination. Instantly, he joins the fray, drawing his sword and Holy Vulcan Machine gun as he charges forward, letting loose a burst of gunfire on the hand as he closes in. "For our friends!"

Naoya Toumou strikes Crazy Hand with his weak Long Range Gunfire attack.

Well that attack does not good as one firebat gets sent flying while several others and Gui get beat down as well. Jim gets blasted again but keeps closing and shooting at the thing. " Cue the song Limits from .hack//SIGN as the Terrans keep up the assault. Jim mutters and never thought he would be fighting something like this as he snaps off another shot.

Gades strikes Crazy Hand with his Destroyer Combo: Destruct-o Disc smash attack.

Jim Raynor strikes Crazy Hand with his KILLLLLLLLL IIIIIIITTTTTTT! attack.

Precarious Hold + Being Thwacked by a Glove = ...

Falling down. Mortimer loses his grip, and goes down. Well, this isn't at all good. Looks like he's in for a long wait until he hits the ground. Except... Is that Borgan's hover platform? Indeed, it is! Sailing down right next to the eight-year old genius! McMire climbs onto it, smacks it to get it going, then flies back up to Final Destination!

"You did NOT just do that!" he calls out to Crazy Hand. He throws out a teleport beacon, which begins floating about twenty feet from Final Destination. Give it a few minutes, and it should warp in Morty's secret weapon... Until then, however, Mortimer is content with blasting it again. Unfortunetly, he lost his Martian Atomizer, so he attams with his next pistol.

Sonic the Hedgehog strikes the glove, and bounces off it. Before Crazy Hand can attack, Sonic leaps back and out of the way just in time. With a smirk on his lips, the heroic hedgehog curls into a little ball on the ground and charges while energy starts to gather around him. Sonic uncurls, glowing pure white, and says, "Ready..." The hedgehog stays still for a second, then shouts, "GO!" at the same second that he charges forward, homing in on Crazy Hand with one of his more devastating attacks.

Sonic the Hedgehog strikes Crazy Hand with its Light Speed Attack smash attack.

Mortimer McMire strikes Crazy Hand with his Vorticon Deathray attack.

Gameshark notices the massive attack coming forth towards him and those who continue to fight on against this monstrocity. Thus, the Dark Gamemaster leaps into the air and holsters the Justifier, avoiding the earthquake before him and the various debris that is thrown up from the rumble with ease. He pulls forth his melee weapon, The Wrath of Heaven, springing forth its deadly blades of dark energy and replies, "You can't win against us, this I know for a fact. My little buddies will show me the way."

Upon approach, GS taps a couple buttons on his controller and lets the options do the work with autofire until he gets in close enough to strike.
<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "I just deal with the messed up stuff as it comes."

Gameshark strikes Crazy Hand with his weak Autofire is nice. attack.

<Hero-IC> Jett Becker says, "We're fighting a giant cartoon glove."

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "It's not fully of this world.... and really powerfull. Our best bet is to keep attacking as we are, to overwhelm it with massive firepower."

<IC Chatter> Mortimer McMire says, "I suggest all of you watch out, I'm teleporting in the Mangling Machine Mk-2 from the Omegamatic. It should arrive within the next few minutes."

<Hero-IC> Naoya Toumou says, "That's life. Take it and run with it."

<IC Chatter> Red Mage says, "Sounds good to me, Cube!"

Jair gets smacked by the big spasming hand, staggering backwards and snarling. He swings the Staff of Ages off of his shoulder and points it into the air above the Crazy Hand, muttering hurriedly under his breath, white energy seeping from the air into the orb. With a cry, a gold-and-silver ray blasts from the orb and into the air above the hand.

The Warlock Lord jumps back, distancing himself from the spasming hand. He slowly chants, energy building within the orb of his staff. He grits his teeth, thrusting the glowing staff forward and up, just above the hand. "Jair... NOW!" A ray of orange hellfire blazes forward out of the staff, going just above the hand...

<IC Chatter> Cube whispers. "It's all we have..."

<Hero-IC> Krystal says, "Where's my Cloudrunner when I need her..."

<IC Chatter> Core Commander says, "What is going on this time?"

The rays strike, forming into a swirling grey ball. It slowly drops down, BLASTING explosively as it lands on him.

<IC Chatter> Naoya Toumou says, "Then that's what we'll work with! Everyone, give it all you got!"

The Warlock Lord strikes Crazy Hand with his Crossing the Rays! attack.

Jair strikes Crazy Hand with his Crossing the Rays! attack.

Crazy Hand is SLAMMED! And THWACKED! And BLASTED! And HAMMERED! And CUT! The hand shakes itself painfully, pulling up into the air. "OKAY, YOU HAVE JUST CROSSED MY LINE OF DEATH! NO MORE PASSIVE RESISTANCE! EAT IT!" The hand starts to wiggle in the air, and dropping bombs... bombs... bombs... bombs... bombs... The entire area becomes a wash of destructive explosive energy.

<IC Chatter> Wario says, "I'm-a okay for-a few more-a goes."

Borgan is /hurt/. His practically invincible robes (they're stronger then he is) are smoking with the aftereffects of the bombs. But there is one good thing about being in the middle of an absolutely huge battle...there's raw power to absorb. Tons of wasted power. He starts to gather it into himself, a black aura seeming to shimmer about him as he does.

<IC Chatter> Jim Raynor says, "On ... INCOMMING!" Gui pipes up, "Oh crud... this is going to hurt." Larry "MEDIC!" Crystal says, "This just ain't our day is it?"

Borgan misses Borgan with his Energy Recovery healing attack.

<IC Chatter> General Scales says, "That thing has survived a few assaults but it ain't over yet."

<IC Chatter> Amon says, "Eradicate this fiend! We cannot let it roam freely"

<IC Chatter> Gades says, "Let's!"

White Mage shrieks as she is blasted back and forth, gacking as she feels her body hitting the ground with a groan. She starts to get up, panting a few times as she keeps pulling out the good sword of goodness. Sure her mouth is bleeding and internally as well...she is used to being knocked out first.

Samus Aran lets out a hard grunt as one of the bombs knocks her out of the air and sprawling, her armor smoking a bit from the impact. She rolls to a stop, then shakes her helmet once to clear her head before flexing her body and regaining her feet in an instant stand. "If that's the way you wanna play it....." she mutters, then charges at the massive hand. What, is she crazy? No, just about to do her strongest close up manuver.....with a leap she shoots up into the air, then in midair flips over, legs coming in close and her arms crossed near her body as she suddenly starts to spin, glowing with golden energy. "SCREW KICK!"

<IC Chatter> Core Commander says, "Ah so amusing to watch the carbons squirm."

Ashton Anchors is struck again. Dang, there's no dodging this thing. Especially for Ashton who has the dodging ability of a brick normally anyway. After recovering from the explosion, his eyes turn red again. "Ok, I've had about enough." He grasps both swords tightly, and charges the glove once more, all the while Gyoro is preparing another burst of firebreath. Ashton leaps, and slashes, and during the process, Gyoro breaths a wave of fire down onto the glove as Ashton breaks off and lands a little bit away.

Samus Aran strikes Crazy Hand with her SCREW KICK smash attack.

<IC Chatter> Jett Becker says, "Can it, tin man."

Ashton Anchors strikes Crazy Hand with his Flame Slice attack.

Borgan strikes Borgan with his Energy Recovery healing attack.

BLAM! Not good. Lady A is struck with an explosive that knocks her back onto the ground. She rolls end over end, her jeans ripped just so by the attack. Luckily, she stops rolling before she reaches the edge. It's a long way down...

She shakes her head. "THAT.... HURT." And she rushes forward. She's not as flashy as Gameshark....no. She's one woman with one Pong Paddle... and she leaps up into the air with a crushing strike, aiming to break one of those gigantic fingers!

White Mage strikes Crazy Hand with her STAB BTAB STABBITY STAB STAB! smash attack.

<IC Chatter> Core Commander says, "Well a tactical report might be nice considering I just recently came back on line little one. Hummm?"

Cube keeps dodging, and weaving, and it seems to pay off. He manages to avoid the plast of destruction, and curves around, facing the Hand once more. He arms his most powerfull weapon. "I don't know why you feel you must kill us, but if I have anything to say about it, YOU WILL FAIL!" Cube blasts forth a powerfull beam of stars. Stars? Yes, Stars.

Wart laughs as he hits the hand. "HAHAH!!! YOu fool!! I am King /WART/!! I am*BOOOM!!*....ow..." ANd that was Wart getting caught in the rain of bombs from Crazy Hand. Growling, he prods a lump in his Cloak Pocket. "#666!! GET READY!!" A bit of stirring from the hiding Shyguy comes, but nothing yet. It's not time yet. Instead, Wart jumps up, yet again, this time using his weighted Crown to do some damage. "FEEL THE HAND OF ROYALTY SMITE YOU, IDIOT!!!" He swings at the hand with the crown, hoping to crack a few bones...or whatever it has in that glove.

Lady A strikes Crazy Hand with her Finger Break smash attack.

Cube strikes Crazy Hand with his MaserCannon smash attack.

Boom! Boom! BOOM! Wolf gets thrown back by each of the bombs that hits him, landing hard, growling, "That's it!" Growls the lupine, "I'm sick and tired of your crap, hand boy!" He yells out, as he points a finger right at the Crazy Hand, "I'm gonna f*ck you up, boy!" He moves his arms to his sides, and lets them light up, as the metal grows over them from his gloves, his right hand starting to charge up, "Here I go!" He takes a running leap right for the Crazy Hand, pulling back with his glowing right fist, as he aims to smash it through Crazy Hand as he flies at him.

Wart misses Crazy Hand with his Insufferable Crown! attack.

Sonic the Hedgehog gets hit by one bomb, and another and another and another... The fires and explosions knock the blue blur to his knees, his quills twitching with pain as scorch marks cover his body. But before the bombs can end, Sonic does manage to get out of the way, and starts running circles around the evil glove, while the bombs are still falling, causing a whirlwind that sends the falling bombs right back at Crazy Hand, hopefully.

Wolf O'Donnell misses Crazy Hand with his Burning Punch smash attack.

Sonic the Hedgehog misses Crazy Hand with his Right Back Atcha! smash attack.

<IC Chatter> Cube says, "If you need healing, congragate to the left of the platform."

Amon was unable to block this one with his aura, and the bombs batter on his armor and tear a few parts and pieces off. Overall, he's unharmed under...thank god for Zirconium being so fuggin tough. "You shall regret this!" He says as he goes to aid the melee front, perhaps if enough of them can keep it busy on the front line it will eventually collapse and be overwhelmed. And raising his twin bladelances he intended to do just that.

Gades is still floating...But, with THAT much powers, explosions and overall painfull things...Floating dont save you. Letting out an angered scream of rage, Gades seize his mighty sword(Make Buster Swords everywhere goes green in shame!) "You DARE! You shall regret facing the fury of the Sinistrals, FOOL! RARRRRRRRRRRG!" And with that, his Dark Blue aura flares up and he screams troward the Crazy Hand, and...well, needless to say...

The Dragon Warrior is pummeled by explosions, and groans. "Man, this guy doesn't give up. Or shut up. Well, NEITHER WILL I! The giving up thing, I mean." The Dragon Warrior begins to gather fire in between his hands, chanting out his spell without any mistakes. The fireball grows to the size of a beachball, and roars with power, until The Dragon Warrior thrusts his hands forward, sending the Firebane spell towards Crazy Hand's demonic digits!

The Guardian doesn't follow up her weapons fire with anything complex, or even all that elaborate. In fact, it would seem that she and her Gamemaster friend are of one mind... but she has something that Lady A does not.

Thrusters capable of propelling her through space at substantial portions of the speed of light. Those thrusters engage with a sudden shrieking wail, and she shoots forward, aiming her nose-cone towards the thing's palm... at a downward angle, no less, to the enigmatic platform of the Final Destination.

Gades strikes Crazy Hand with his Gades Blade: Ker-SLICEY! attack.

Well, the bombs do hit Wario. And they hurt. But then Wario runs up and tries to punch Crazy. But the Up-Great takes effect, and Wario's hand turns into a golemic stone hand, quite capable of doing some good damage. What does Wario say to this?

"OOOOOHHHHH, YYEEEAAAAAHHH-a!"

Carlie slowly comes crawling back onto the platform, somehow she was able to suvive after all the assualts she's taken so far. She looks in really lousy shape but wobbles over back towards the melee as she decides to use a healing spell and points it towards 3 of her allies in order to help them recover a little.

General Scales frowns as the ship is hit, looking to his troops saying, "Put out that fire and keep us in the air!", the Galleon continues to rock as he thinks of a battle plan, he moves to the helm saying, "I'm taking over.", he grabs the wheel and turns towards Crazy Hand, "This is getting old, heres a few presents.", he presses a button opening a few compartments on the bottom of the ship, releasing missiles

Red Mage growls madly, and stands. "YOU're realling pissing me off!" His aura truns pure white, and his clothes chang to a simple gi, looking like Ryu. "OKAY, MISTER HAND! I LEARNED THIS FROM AN OLD FRIEND!" A ball of energy forms in his hands, and he throws them forward. "Hadouken!"

General Scales misses Crazy Hand with his Missile Barrage attack.

The Warlock Lord crouches under his shields, the bombs rolling off worthlessly. He dispels his shields as he stands, needing this. "Why are you still CONCIOUS?!?" Unable to take time to gather power after the Ray of Death, the Warlock Lord fires a basic, meat-and-potatoes Dark Bolt at Crazy Hand.

The Warlock Lord misses Crazy Hand with his weak Dark Bolt attack.

Krystal oh cruds as Crazy retaliates, launching bombs all over the place. Quickly she swings her staff to deflect, knocking a few bombs away. But in the end there's just too many at once, the resulting blast flooring the vixen with a yowl. But she gets up, hurting a bit, but she gets up. "Okay.. that's it.. no more miss nice vixen!" Once on her feet, she charges, swinging her staff to just smack the oversized hand accessory.

Carlie strikes Lady A with her Healing Light healing attack.

Krystal strikes Crazy Hand with her Staff Strike attack.

Naoya Toumou is enwreathed with blue flames as the incrediable explosions surround him, tossing him about like a ragdoll from the force, sending him skidding to the edge... but he screeches to a halt, and bends his knees, using his powers to launch himself towards the hand at unbelievable speeds to give his sword that extra boost (and reach) needed to make the hand hurt.

Lady A has disconnected.

Suddenly a private yacht appears from out of nowhere. The symbol of the Nanjou Corporation is engraved on the side. With speed that belies the fact it is floating in empty space, it drives onward towards the Giant Hand without a sign of stopping. Just seconds before it collides, a female figure leaps off, abandoning the strange boat to a fiery fate. Hey it's the Final Destination, virtually anything can be done here.

Maya Amano strikes Crazy Hand with her Iceberg, er Giant Hand dead ahead! Abandon ship! attack.

Jair roars angrily as bombs explode around him, blasting the smoking high king backwards and off the platform, where he screeches to a halt and charges forward, just trying to club Crazy Hand with his staff. Fokker.

Morty is hit again! Luckily, Borgan's platform took the brunt of the attack. About now, a form begins to appear to the side of Final Destination. First only a sihlouette, then in a flash of blue light, a mecha is there, it's jump jets holding it aloft this high above the ground.

The Mangling Machine Mk-2, more powerful in every way than the original. It's boltgun gray exterior glinting slightly from some unknown light source. The head of the mecha has a rather devilish grin to it, and there are panels on the arms and chest where weapons obviously fold out. The joints glow slightly, an unsettling forest green, and McMire flies over to it. As the face of the mecha folds open, Mortimer jumps in, and sends the hover platform back to Borgan.

"If anyone is going to destroy the universe, it shall be me," Mortimer mutters as he activates that Mangler.

<Hero-IC> Frog croaks. "What's all this noise.."

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "We got a sitation at the final destation."

<Hero-IC> Arm Commander says, "Death comes in the form of a Cartoon Hand."

Now, I could go into a long description on how Jett Becker and her team of Dreadnaughts arrive on the scene. But I wont. Jett, Arnold, Janet, Brit, and Samson collect here, circling over the Final Destination on glide wings attached to their jetpacks. Jett herself keeps her rifle raised, examining the situation below. She raises her free hand to one side, clenched into a fist, before swooping down over Crazy Hand. The other four follow suit, and each Dreadnaught deposits a remote, plate-sized and shaped device towards the 'back' of the hand, while it's bombarding everyone else and suffering the consequences.

Jett Becker strikes Crazy Hand with her trivial Setting some charges, don't mind us! attack.

<IC Chatter> Wolf O'Donnell says, "Yo, whoever's healing, mind sending one my way?"

Mortimer McMire strikes Mortimer McMire with his Mangling Machine, activate! healing attack.

<Hero-IC> Frog says, "A Cartoon hand thou say? I am afraid that even such a challenge, I would not be needed. There is little that I could do."

<Hero-IC> Duke Nukem says, "Get a cartoon breast for the hand, that should keep it busy."

<Hero-IC> Brit, not Jett Becker says, "I say, old man. In the Queen's english, get thine slimey green arse down here, or there wont be tea and crumpets for anyone."

<Hero-IC> Cube says, "Duke... Never mind."

<Hero-IC> Frog silence for a moment. "I am afraid that I am not thy hero thou'rt seeking.

<Hero-IC> Commander, Jim Raynor says, "Frog we need everyone we can to help us! Come on your more powerful than most of my troops who are here and even me from what I know. Yet we are sill fighting this thing!"

Boss Imp is getting bombarded excessively while trying to keep his Robot Imp Armor in one piece from all the damage its taking, "Pah! I'm still standing you cheaply stitched piece of cloth! You call those bomb! I gotta bomb to pick with you pal!" the front of the robo armor opens up to reaveal a large sphere that's launched up into the air as suddenly a red glowing mist swirls around it, while it hovers near the crazy hand. FAE bomb in place, "Happy Birthday you punk! Now who's gonna light this candle?"

Duke Nukem has arrived.

<Hero-IC> Frog doesn't respond.

Frog arrives from Space War Zone.

Frog has arrived.

Gameshark continues to dodge Crazy Hand's various assaults with ease, but even his luck is probably presumed to fall out at some point. (Lets just hope it doesn't run out anytime soon.) O o . rolls through his mind as he proceeds forth, allowing the options to take care of the bombs that approach him. Explosions emit around the Dark Gamemaster, giving him just the right atmosphere needed to excute his assault, the Element of Surprise!

Travis smirks and uses the explosions and smoke to conceal his position and begins to manuever around to the hand's backside. He continues to type in a few codes to various codes to assist him and the party around him and as he approaches, the c
