Welcome to Gaia! ::

((lol, okay, in that case change my control to attempt to control which would be the normal way of doing things then. hmmm, thought of something. er...sry, pardon my randomness...

so what's happening now IC?))

((um...nope sweatdrop he..he sorry))

OOC: Well then, you'll be surprised. Though I must admit that the simple name "Absolute Terror Field" is cool. xD

IC: Of course, neither of you get to appreciate the poetry behind this seeing as you'll be attempting to avoid a big, big boomboom! xD BOOM!

-=Impact=-

The sphere strikes the ground dead on, betweeen where the two fighter had been when the sphere first appeared.

-=Impact=-

Its barrier generators flare as it strikes, cushioning the machine itself and increasing the resulting mass exponentially.

-=Impact=-

The blast is impressive, shattering the ground and rending the sky. This machine was well named, for it resprents what it creates.

-=Impact=-

Apocolypse.

OOC: You may be able to if you can get through its barrier. More information on the barrier and the mech's actual combat capabilities after you guys post your reactions to the big a** explosion, namely because you won't be able to see it until then when the smoke and fire clear.

His bone structure was strong enough to stand up to the brute force of the shockwave that resulted from the explosion, granted, but some of his fleshier parts would need some work. Scraps of skin began to fly in all directions as he leapt backwards at the strike against the ground, hurtling backwards in a controlled backflip, pushed much farther and higher than he should be by the force behind the impact. He wasn't going to die by any means, but blood now poured from his body and sprayed around him in his spin. Any stones and earth would impact his back or hands and deal minimal damage, either caught or impacting a toughened carapice.

The smoke and fires clears away to reveal the Mech at the center of the crater. Its arms are long and curved, bearing large pieces of its previous ball form as shields with the wide ugly mouths of numerous firearms poking out from under it. The clawed hands are long, dextrous blades to be used equally for fine motor skills and rending flesh. Its ovoid head and single "eye" is housed under another beatle-like section of the sphere, again rimmed with weapon emplacements. Its back is covered in long spines, and the other pieces of the sphere that it still carries sport smaller retracted versions. The legs look almost muscular in metal form, crouched powerfully under it, ready to spring into motion at the slightest notice. Its torso is heavily armored and covered in ports the likely lead to even more weaponry. Its sight locks on the nearby IV, and with a leaping bound soars towards him.

Still in the air, it brings its arms to bear. Twin streams of bluish flame spew towards IV from the top of its wrists, accompanied by a hail of machinegun firre from below the wrists and a salvo of MRMs from a chest compartment.

((Sorry it took so long. XD I'mma need to know if that spell is in effect or not, cause its been a while and I'm just confoosed. ^_^))

As the mecha rises from the smoke and flame, IV finally lands some distance away. As it begins to come after him he can only think of one thing, Oh s**t. He starts moving, scooping up a handfull of needles that had been earlier deposited and hopes to god he doesn't have to stop, making his path as erratic as he can to keep out of the direct line of fire. The majority of the bullets either slide through him or ricochet off his carapice, the flames avoided by a deft flip. The missiles are met with groups of long needles tossed into the air towards them and a bit of fancy footwork. Knowing Ikibe the missile are likely homing, but if they are we'll deal with that later. ^_^```
