His chest protector was designed to block beam rifles, not beam sabers, but he knew it would hold up for awhile. He grabbed ahold of the barrel on the fox's gun and front flipped over him, kicking him in the back sending him towards the dog as he jumped into the air. "That may be, but I doubt you've faced an opponent that can move above you, nonetheless throw fire!" As he said this, his left hand caught fire, and with the swing of his arm he sent a large bolt flying right at the dog.

Johann was sitting in his cockpit, twiddling his fingers in boredom, when his sensors picked up a reading. He leaned forward eagerly, then cocked his head in confusion.
"Heat blooms? How are there heat blooms in a blizzard?"
"Bzzt. Unknown."
Johann shrugged. "Enough of this. I'm going down there to see what's happening." He angled the ship towards the heat bloom, then dove through the atmosphere.
He landed a few degrees away from the heat, so that he was hidden by the whirling snow. He exited his ship and wandered towards the readings.

And thank you.... Edgard.))

Koudo didn't want to trouble the boss with his cold blood habits, so he quickly started to work his mind in order to create or find a solution. One came quickly as he recalled what he spent his extra mercenary money doing ground work; A load of games from ball in cup to some handheld games. Digging through his tool containment compartment, he found a Command Follower Game. It was round and displayed four coloured panels: Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green. The goal was to follow the commands set by the artificial intelligence exactly after every few smaller commands. It would grow harder each new command because the total command would be longer. For example, it would start as red, yellow, red, then it would say another command ending with one more command. If the player took too long or missed a command, the player would loose and start over with a differn't starting command. This help Koudo lengthen his attention in battle, keep memory, and most of all, prevent his dazes of sleepiness.
"No need boss, I found something to keep me awake."
Over the com, beeps could be heard, first three, then four, then five. At the time for six beeps, instead came a mocking short melody that signaled Koudo had lost a command already.
"Blasted machine..."

((OOC: There is NO way I can keep up with that... Well, maybe...))
In all of the action Henry tried so hard to keep up that in his haste to pull his pistol out he slipped on an ice patch. In a single slick movement, Henry's feet flew into the air and up-ended him like a bottle, landing him square on his back and cracking his head into the ice. He laid there groaning in his grizzly bear way something awful, passed out in the snow.

Rory flipped back into the air and landed gracefully, preparing himself for the next attack. He slashed at the bolt of fire, deflecting it back Jack, aiming it at his armor, in hopes that the damage caused to it from his sabers would finally cause it to break.
"I'm getting really tired of you."
Suddenly, he grasped both sabers in his left hand threw a small bladed disk at Jack with his right hand. It soared by, creating only a small cut upon Jack's arm. Rory cursed under his breath.
"That should have taken your arm clean off."

Jack held out his arms and embraced the fire as it hit him, dispersing throughout him. "I'll give you credit dog, that was clever. But that fire is mine, it doesnt matter whether you hit me with it, it still came from me, and will still return to me." Suddenly a small disk hit his arm, as a small amount of purple blood leaked out. "Sonofabitch, what the hell was that?" he questioned. "...Stings like hell..." he muttered under his breath. The beam saber attached to his wrist began to beep rapidly. "Finally. Don't worry dog, I'll end this fast. Charge Blade!" he shouted. He hit a button on the handle and threw his arm straight up, the green blade of the saber bursting outwards with energy, becoming impractically large in the process, the blade spewing out from the handle two or three feet in either direction from Jacks wrist, the blade itself launching upwards around fifteen feet. Jack dove head on towards the dog with a no-screwing-around attitude this time. As he swung the massive blade, he roared "Charge Slash!"

Rory braced himself for impact, digging his feet into the ground, but thought it would be courteous to let Jack know exactly what hit him.
"Hold it right there! I'll push it"
On the hilts of his beam sabers were small buttons. The blade on the disk was carrying something and it was now making its way through Jack's bloodstream. Whatever it was, Rory could activate it through the push of a button.

"s**t!" Jack planted his feet into the ground and flipped backwards into the air. "I knew that was too suspicious of a throw to trust as a miss."

((You know, you're like the only person to have every caught on to that trick. You're a great roleplayer. biggrin ))
Rory stood his ground, his fingers on the buttons.
"Okay. Just take it easy. I only kill when it's absolutely necessary and I've got no problems with you, so killing you wouldn't make sense. I'm going to make you a deal. Leave us be and I won't detonate those microbombs in your bloodstream. Only a few got in, but there's still enough to blow a good-sized hole in your chest. Now, you if leave this planet and don't try to pull anything when we leave, I promise I won't detonate them. In one hour, those microbombs will deteriorate in your blood, and there won't be any negative side effects."
His eyes were locked on Jack's.
"What do you say? Do we have a deal?"

((Haha thanks biggrin ))
He landed, the fire on his wings dying out. "Do I have a choice?". He walked towards them all. "So why exactly are you all here?"

Rory pointed to Henry and Fokkusu over his shoulder with his thumb.
"Well, I landed here because my system was picking up a group of lifeforms. I figured they were stranded and with the way Fortuna has been lately, I think they needed all the help they could get."
He paused for a moment.
"So, why are you here?"

Johann, having nothing better to do while watching the fight, decided to run out of cover to the downed grizzly bear. He gently prodded his head. "Oh good. Nothing fatal."
He sat down beside him and set about making him more comfortable while the others fought. They finished and he stood, brushing the snow off his jacket.
"Hello!" he called cheerily.

((OOC: Did you miss it? I slipped in the ice trying to draw my pistol and bumped my head."
Henry laid there in the snow still knocked out. He felt something begin to prod him. Feeling this, his groan slowly turned to a sudden and full-blown growl, startling him awake. He noticed that Rory and Jack had finally kissed and made up and he got up rubbing his temple with his paw.
"Oh, by the way..." he groaned at Rory "After you're done fraternizing with the enemy, could you please check on my hurt, throbbing skull? I'm not bleeding am I?"
