The Last Poster Wins! [v8]

[Sir Sivelos]

DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA *SIVELOS continues sniping the FIRETEAM with ULTIMATE SWORD BLASTS.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*The Firemen go down very quickly due to their heavy armor and low agility. The Clockstoppers, far more agile and light, have better luck and not one of their number goes down while they attempt to shoot you dead-which doesn't happen all at once. However, this means that nothing happened to the Glue/Ice.*

*The orbs just keep coming! Tazz is forced to fan away more with wind magic! Meanwhile, though none hit the ice (thankfully), more Explosive Drop pods hit the surface of Nidhogg's skin, and release MORE Firemen and Clockstoppers. You COULD use those explosive orbs against them, but attacking them directly is still the same good idea it always was.*

Nidhogg: ...How...Is...This?...Nnnnnnn...

*5 SECONDS!*

[Sir Sivelos]

HIYAAAAAH! *SIVELOS unleashes several ULTIMATE MACH TORNADOES, ravaging the Clockstoppers.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*The Firemen, tougher and harder to move, fail to be flinged off at all and are only moderately harmed. They start melting the glue and ice, but it's not terrifically fast. Tazz can't help you right now or lay down more Ice! Fending off orbs!*

*You barely hear Nidhogg cry for help*

*1! SECOND!*

*The Firemen are charging up some kind of attack...Knowing them, it's probably fire-based.*

[Sir Sivelos]

I DON'T THINK SO!!! *SIVELOS leaps toward the FIREMEN, with ULTIMATE GALAXIA charged to its full power. He proceeds to perform an epic Drill Pierce, with an aura of energy surrounding the attack. He goes through each of the FIREMEN one by one.*

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*NIDHOGG HAS ASPHYXIATED!*

Bloodhound:...F***ING HELL! IT'S LIKE MY OLD JOB AT CRYPTUS ALL OVER AGAIN! I work my a** off to kill those d**m b**ches, and I GET NOTHING! THEY KEEP ALIVE!

Image:...THE ELDER SOUL!!!

*Both sides, in a tactical folly, completely forgot about him. Except possibly Karma and the other 3 Fireteams, but they were held up by the True Bronze Golem the WHOLE time, and had JUST killed them. The Gravity well to the final asteroid is still functioning-they can grab the Elder Soul, and all would be for naught (but a huge pile of L00T!)*

*Tazz teleports over, attempting to wake the Bronze Elder Soul up, unable to carry him. He's almost out of energy (all of him), and so is Sivelos. Karma, though, proves that she really does never get tired, and the Fireteams, though exhausted, CAN, in fact, kill you.*

[Sir Sivelos]

*SIVELOS extracts the last of his energy and gives it to the ELDER SOUL, in hopes it will wake it up.* Ugh... *SIVELOS is dead. He respawns and is forcibly TP'd back to TAZZ.* Ah, Much better!

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*Energy and HP reserves are separate! You remain alive (and with some EXP left) But it nevertheless works. Sort of. He gets up just in time to greet Karma, who, though barely tired, is around half HP from the Bronze Golem fight.*

TBES:...Bluh...

Karma: Oh, you were so hard to get at~ But now-

*Clearly she didn't notice the impaled head of Mr. Question Marks Tres, as the sword rushes back into his hand just in time for a lightning fast swing. Karma is sent off her feat and off of the Platform-and out of the Dungeon entierly, thrown out of the whole thing by a single blow!*

*The Fireteams look at each other briefly-a brief time for Bronzy to grab the Platform with some kind of telekinesis and fling them off, ALSO sending them out of the Dungeon. No enemies exist in the Dungeon as of current, barring the Bronze Gear golems-who seem to identify the Bronze Elder Soul as their creator, and henceforth their leader. Huh. If he was awake, this could have been quicker...But he might have been awake the whole time. How'd the True Bronze golem get out of the arena, after all?*

*In any case-the corpse of the Bronze Gear golem, Mr. Question Marks Tres, AND Nidhogg, all start bulging, then EXPLODE in a TR1P13 L00T$PL0$10N! Image and his many ships are still firing at you, though, wanting you deader than deader than dead, so you'd best collect quickly! Tazz and his many selves go to collect Nidhogg's L00T. The Bronze Elder Soul seems to be protecting the platform from bombardment.*

[Sir Sivelos]

*SIVELOS quickly picks up ???'s L00T.* Gonna need this for later...

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

*Tazz collects the True Bronze Golem's L00T, then teleports the group out of the dungeon and onto the ships-all five are still perfectly intact.*

Tazz: Captain!

Storm: Leaving!

*Apparently Storm took the Captain's position while you were gone. He's done a d**m good job of it.*

*You're out of there!*

*The trolls in the room-well, the ones you don't know the names of-seem to give MORE than a bit of pause to look at The Bronze Elder Soul. Despite having seen Elder Souls for quite a while now...*

...

(The other) Nidhogg: THEY KILLED NIDHOGG!!!
UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!

Image: And now you know WHY we treat them as a huge threat. We threw everything we had and the Kitchen sink into stopping them, and none of it mattered!

Freedom: SUCH DEFIANCE WILL NOT STAND! THEY MUST DIE HORRIBLY! FOR THE ULTIMATE ORDER!

Krathlos: HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?!?! HOW DOES LITERALLY NOTHING WORK?!?!

Karma: Ba****d swatted me away! I couldn't even get a good look at him...Hrmph!

Bloodhound: ...Hrmph...I have an idea...

Image: Oh?

Bloodhound: The Clockstoppers...Some of them took your special Star guns. the ones that absorbed Star Magic? They took the Bard's attack and just shot it back at him. Boom...Out of the picture...To say nothing of those clocks. Shame they didn't bother to use them...But, they were effective. We could find more hard counters to those mercs...To everything they do. Train people on how to stop those tactics, pair them up with our own breed of power...

Image:...Watch them crumble...Hrm, it'll at least improve our odds. I'll see about making gear to countering Tazz's abilities...

Freedom: I love it when we have a plan to CRUSH those chaotic fools!

Nidhogg: Nidhogg hasssssssss ssssssssseen your points...Your prowesssssssss...Your competensssssssse...You are NOT weak foolsssssssss...

...Desssssssspite your failure...Consssssssssider the loansssssssss...

...Permanent.

Image: I thank you, Lord Nidhogg. We will put them to good use against those AntIvOId twits.
