(... Wow... I think Gabe has anger issues lol)

Moe reached the hooded man, then he threw a punch at the man's face. The hooded man caught Moe's fist and started to twist it. Moe attempted to slam his foot into the man's knee, but the man sidestepped it and threw Moe to the ground. Moe almost instantly hopped back to his feet, he realised that this guy wasn't fighting like he normally would, with energy beams and such, 'What's going on?' Moe thought.

Dax

"Need a hand?!" I walked forwards slowly.


I looked back sighing.

Brego opened the door, seeing his sister, Amari, with her back turned as she was busy putting some sort of voodoo dolls on some shelves.
"You're late." She remarked, putting the last two dolls on the remaining spaces.
"We were attacked by some annoying pile of metallic waste." His excuse was.
"I know that... and I understand that two of your friends are injured." She added, turning round to Brego, her left eye hidden under her long, black hair. "One of which cannot be healed by regular spells."
"Can you explain why Vlad can't be healed normally, either?" Brego asked, impatiently.
"Fultron isn't a complete robot. He too has part of his core made up of dark magic. This means anything or anyone he injures cannot be healed simply by applying a healing agent. It can only be countered with black magic, and then the healing can be done." Amari explained. Brego couldn't remember or figure out how Amari had such knowledge on this subject.
"So, if you bring your friend who can be healed in, I'll be able to get him back the way he was."
"He has a broken jaw... yeah..."
"Not only that, but there's also a split in his windpipe and his spine is heavily fractured." Amari added, blankly. Brego wasn't even going to bother asking how she knew this.
"We'll... get him in." He said, and he walked out of the room.

(Creepy...)

The hooded man waited for Moe to make the next move. Moe just stood there, waiting. ~Well, if that's all...~ The hooded man said as he started walking past Moe.

(oooo O.o)

Dax stopped watching the hooded figure.


I came to a halt in front of the RE man. "What do you want?" He handed me a small device.

"Who are you?" Moe asked the hooded figure. The figure stopped, then looked at Moe, "Who wants to know?" He asked. Moe hesitated for a second, "Moe" He finally said. The figure thought for a bit, then pulled out a photo and looked at it, then he looked back at Moe as he put the picture away. "My name..." The figure started, then he turned and started walking forwards, "... Is a secret" The figure finished.

Dax

I stood behind Moe now watching the figure.

I looked at the device nodding

Moe thought for a second. He could only think of two people that picture could have on it. Him, or the target.

As the hooded figure walked off, Moe noticed the figure talking into his sleeve, but he couldn't hear what the figure was saying.

A dark figure was watching the three from a rooftop. The dark figure jumped off and landed behind Moe and Dax. Moe turned to look at the figure, it was ANOTHER hooded figure. Moe looked puzzled, "Two?!" He exclaimed.

A minute passed, and Vlad was now lying down on the floor, with Amari stood by his head with several candles and masks set up around the room.
"Are you some kind of a shaman now?" Brego asked Amari, who nodded once. She closed her eyes, pointing both her hands at Vlad as a dark green cloud started to swarm over him. The cloud started to filter slowly through Vlad's mouth and into his body until it was all gone. "..." Brego watched as a light green cloud rose up from his chest, dissipating into the air.
"And now we can do a healing spell." Amari said, simply applying one hand to his forehead as Vlad's entire body became rejuvenated. "Give him an hour. His mind needs to recover." She added, looking at Brego.
"Thanks... I don't ever remember mum giving you lessons on how to be a magic show."
"That's because I learned myself. This village needed one..." Amari sighed, thinking of her childhood.
"Oh yes, Doom Storm and White Chailists are going to arrive within thirty seconds. You may as well try and help me fend them off." She warned him, but like it was 'just another day'... which it was for her.
"If you say so..." Brego walked out.

"Welcome back... It's been a while since I knocked you into that building" The hooded figure said, "Ohhhh... So you're the one I know and despise" Moe said, frowning. The hooded figure chuckled, "I'm glad you think of me that way" He said. Moe noticed that this figure had blue fur instead of black, so now he knew a way to identify the two.

The RE figure bowed before vanishing. I turned around teleporting next to Moe and Dax.

"I think we may need to leave.."

The hooded figure slammed his fist into Moe's chest, knocking him back into both Dax and Dex. Moe quickly got back up and charged at the figure. Moe readied a punch, but the hooded figure swung a fist at Moe's head. Moe ducked to the right, barely dodging the punch, then he slammed his fist into the hooded figure's side. The hooded figure staggered back a couple steps, "That's all you got?" The hooded figure mocked.

I fell down only to get back up again with Dax by my side. "Need a hand Moe?"

"Stop the other one" Moe said. The second hooded figure(the black one) was running towards the van, heading towards the target.

The first hooded figure(the blue one) waited for Moe to make the next move. Moe ran towards the hooded figure, then jumped and attempted to slam his foot into the figure's head. The figure side-stepped at the last second and slammed Moe to the ground, causing a crater in the ground.

(Now here comes the hard (maybe) question... Do you help Moe, or the unknown target?)

"Get everyone--" Brego was about to say, until he already saw several Doom Storm light gunships over a row of huts. He looked at the two hooded figures, but briefly ignored them as he was now more focused on the coming battle.
"You two take out those two or whatever, I'll try and defend against these twits. Dan, you round up all the villagers and get them out of here."
"Aye aye." Dan said, and rushed towards the nearest set of huts.

As Brego whipped out both Honor and Valor, he could see a few anti-infantry tanks, a heavy drop ship, two medium APCs and even a Medium mech unit. Brego quickly flew to the top of the tallest building using his wings, and was relieved to see the wave of Doom Storm wasn't very large.

(Remember - Most of the units are equipped with toson bullets which shoots through shields, so try to focus on getting around quickly and taking out the troops from different angles rather than focusing power on the spot. If your gonna fight them, that is.)

The blue hooded figure backed away from Moe, who was still in the crater, and watched the Doom Storm troops, "Grrr... They're going to ruin everything" He grumbled. The figure looked back at Moe, who couldn't get up. The figure grabbed Moe's arm, then yanked him up. Moe got ready to take a blow, but the figure just pointed at the Doom Storm troops, "Good luck" The figure said, then he ran off towards where the black hooded figure was heading.

The black hooded figure could hearsomeone behind him and he turned around to see the other hooded figure, "We're calling the mission off" The blue hooded figure said,

"Why?"

"If we try to do it with this whole army around, it's not gonna work"

"Or maybe it will work better"

"Doubt it... Let's just get out of here"

"There's no point if our target is dead"

The blue figure thought for a second, "Follow me" He said, then he teleported out of sight. Then the black figure followed.

I stood by Moe. "You ok?"

Dax

I drew my hand gun and began to fire.

Just at that moment, a shield appeared around the number of units. Brego only just saw the mobile shield generator, but it was moving a bit slow compared to the other units, but they were now all stopped. Doom Storm troops came out of the APCs and began returning fire as they made their way into the buildings in groups of four. The tanks opened fire on most of the buildings to scare people out, but the gunships remained high above the village to pick off any threats. They were left wide open.
"Let's get started." Brego mumbled, and began flying up to the nearest gunship without the pilots seeing. The heavy dropship was only just landing.

I turned into my metal form grinning. "This is where the fun begins"

"I'm fine" Moe replied. He instantly started looking around for a way he could help. Moe drew his sword and ran towards a building he saw some troops go into.

I walked towards a shield with troops in. I smiled as bullets pinged off me.

Dax

I turned into my Rock form.

Five light mechs appeared from behind the heavy drop ship and started towards the middle of the village. They had already viewed Dax as a threat after a shot destroyed one of them, leaving the remaining four to open fire on him.

Once Brego had got to the gunship, he started charging up the shots in both his pistols. Once he slipped them into the holsters as they continued to charge, he grabbed onto a pipe on the gunship, holding onto it just to make things difficult for the others to take him down without damaging the gunship.

Amari started to cast a spell, drawing a large symbol on the door with ink.

I began to rush at one of the shields.

Dax

I slammed my fists into the ground making stone walls appear.

Moe ran into the house and hid in a room, ready to jump at and cut some of the troops in pieces.

(There's only one shield XD)

One of the mechs armour was crushed from the wall, but the other two almost walked into the wall. They attempted walking round.

A search-and-destroy team were in the room Moe was in, three were regular assault troops and one was heavily armoured with a large flamethrower.
