Welcome to Gaia! ::

Irzael was forced back into the wall as the ball of energy slammed against his paddleblade. His head throbbed for a few moments as he regained his composure. Ugh...How can we stop this thing?

The tattoos on Irzael's arms began to glow pale blue as he uttered a few incantations. The wind around him began to hum as his sword disappeared. Irzael thrust both hands ahead of him, unleashing two torrents of wind. He manipulated their directions so they snaked around him and came at Viceroy from his left and his back at a downward angle.

Knives flashed out of Jacknife's general vacinity and flew through the air extremely quickly, each smacking directly into an orb. Leaving the third coming at him and nothing to block it with.

He dove to the side and, on the off chance that it would work, he attempted to grab the last orb with his mind and hurl it back at the Viceroy. If it did not work he may still be able to dodge it, he lept from his roll over the top of a small pile of rubble before crouching down behind it.

His knives would return to him behind the pile, they would simply fly over the top and back into their sheathes. They really did seem to take almost no concentration anymore. Thanks to Sir. Roxshoard, The Chafeless Knight.

Unfortunaty for Jackknife, Masuyu and Gamma, the orbs were composed of metamagical "soul" energy. For jackknife it would be like trying to telekenitcly grasp onto someones soul and rip it from its path. Not exactly a task that can be done by brute strength alone.
For Gamma and Masuyu they would find the barrier did not entirely stop the energy. The energy was trying to strong arm its way through the barrier, attacking the magical bonds between the air molecules rather than the air itself. Masuyu spliting his resourses to make the beams were enough for the powerful metamagical orbs to begin to break the metamagical bonds. Slowly but surely the two orbs would hit the two men, knocking them both back if the Masuy getting hit was enough to break the concentration.

Now on to viceroy himself. There was another wall of flack and two gusts of wind from the behind. Only one thing to do. He used Allen's ability to accelerate to amazing speeds and combined it with the stream already in progress. He was flying forward faster than anyone would expect, and essentaly charged at Gammu, fast enough to dodge beside the invisble point the shell would explode at. Now, atempting this risky manuever was completly screwed with the blasts of wind and the fact he was using a gauss cannon rather than normal charges.

The wind violently pushed him into a positon where the cannon violently ripped up both of the wings, and that allowed some of the metal fragments to rip into flesh.

So a desperation tactic was needed. Using the power of last shot Viceroy used any last moment to fire forward like a spinning missile, chaoticly enhanced energy blade out front. Armour or not, if the sword impacted, Gammu's stomach would be impaled.

Irzael fell to one knee directly after loosing his attack, the wind drained from his body. He was panting heavily, but Irzael was very relieved to find out the Viceroy's attack had been directed at the armored man and not himself. Must...take deep...breaths.... Irzael slowed his breathing, taking deeper, more fulfilling breaths as he slowly rose from the ground. He was still fairly winded, but Irzael managed to summon his sword, position the broad side in front of himself, and begin to draw in air.

And just when he was close enough to actually attack, the Viceroy was already spiralling away.

Chasing after him seemed to be a complete waste of time, and so Athan braced himself where the Viceroy had been standing only seconds earlier. The weapon was held at his side, the point of the weapon directed behind him.

From this point, it'd be extremely easy for Athan to react to anything thrown his way, without tossing himself into any danger concerning his allies' firepower.

Now all that was left was to wait.

((Yeah, I'm editting this because I'm tired of ******** around. I have no interest staying here for the rest of the event.))

Gamma squeezed again. Gaining leeway over the solid around him through shear power of his artificial muscles and will. Tighter and tigher, Gamma intended to crush Masuyu to death or until the internal bleeding caused him to black out and cancel the shield.

Soon, soon Masuyu's internal organs would rupture and release blood and other fluids into his system. With his body tilted back all of them would drift to his lungs, heart, and brain. Only a matter of time indeed.

((Now I'm going to preempt your complaints here. You CANNOT create indestructable solids. Why? Because it's not in your bio. Gamma CAN and is GOING to squeeze until you hemorrhage and black out or drop the shield, at which point you get suplexed.

Don't like it? Take it up with the judges. I hear the biggest pet peeve of theirs is using abilities not listed in the bio. You know, like making an indestructable solid at will? I'm sure the "No limits" fallacy wouldn't go in your favor either.))

Nascen turned himself out from around the corner he'd taken shelter at, cursing at all the luck that two of their allies were as intent on killing them. Y'know, of all the luck, this came now.

Nascen wipped the submachine gun back up over his shoulder, grabbing at is belt. Nascen ripped a grenade off his belt, pulling the pin and tossing it up into the air between himself and the spot where the Viceroy was currently diving. He brought one hand up as it came back down to his eye level, and slid about an inch backward as his palm held toward the grenade, his arm supported by the other hand holding his elbow put, emmitted a sizable PIS shot, which might move a few things between him and the target, or targets so long as this 'ally' had gone hostile and become a danger to his men, not to mention their goal and thus the world itself according to his logic, but more importantly it would cause the grenade to fly forward as if fired from a cannon.

Fired from a cannon to explode at the spot he'd aimed for, just in front of the landbound target to catch the Viceroy plummeting what appeared to be uncontrollably toward it, between the two of them just as they would have met had he let it go uninterrupted.

As the shockwave was what was moving the grenade, it wouldn't reach them before it. Rather, as it would accelerate the whole time the force was upon it, the grenade would probably be several fractions of a second ahead of the shockwave heading toward them when it came down to them. With the water of the fountain evaporated they wouldn't find cover in it spraying somehow either, and anything else it blasted was likely to be on the shockwave long enough to be more than on pace with the grenade.

((Gammu would have just blocked it (Sacrifice his shield to avoid the sword) and retreated. We were planning to head to Gambino.

But I'm still offline because I have to move s**t around the house for an hour or two.))
