Saitonia's Retribution The Final Arc: Episode 7: Berserker

(Cat, Kav, and the new character [b]Shiraita[/b] have initiated a quest to take out the [b]Siviurix[/b] droid named [b]Rydirino[/b], in which this droid, alongside a small army of [b]Siviurix[/b] bots, have established a foothold on former [b]Triaryin[/b] territory. The 3 are close, traveling towards the territory by foot.) [b]Kavita:[/b] Y'know, Ita, I remember me and Cat *raspy exhale* infiltrated a [b]Siviurix[/b] ship to take out a droid with a group of noblemen hunters. This was like a year ago in [b]Dyphinix[/b]. [b]Cathera:[/b] Not the craziest battle we've had with them or any of the alien species, but it kinda had me a bit attentive, considering their unpredictability. [b]Kavita:[/b] And I won't- *raspy exhale* forget when my dumb[b]a[/b]ss brother- Actually...I'm kinda getting over it, but that terrible memory of him injuring me over 200 [b]zepiks[/b] just to end up in deep deep sh[b]i[/b]t..*raspy breather* still lingers. [b]Shiraita:[/b] *to Kav* You're still here, right? I can assume you've had worse near-death experiences, as we get into one nearly every day. *to both* Anyways, the aliens do vary themselves depending on district. Color schemes are easy indicators on whether if it's [b]Sakriseni Triaryin[/b] or [b]Paladuran Triaryin[/b], for example. [b]Cathera:[/b] Yep. [b]Siviurix[/b] in [b]Dyphinix[/b] are mainly gray with yellow and white details. Here in [b]Sakrisen[/b], they're this metallic blue with hints of black and gold. *As the 3 approach the territory, they're met with a horde of [b]Siviurix[/b] bots constructing a ship right in the middle. The 3 then take cover behind some rubble.* [b]Kavita:[/b] So, which one is [b]Rydirino[/b]? [b]Cathera:[/b] I'll activate my sensing, see who exudes the most pressuring energy. *Cat's eyes glow green, the sensing ability actually getting an upgrade as it manages to cover even further ground than it used to. Past the horde of [b]Siviurix[/b] bots, Cat can sense a very strong presence and can confirm that this is [b]Rydirino[/b].* [b]Cathera:[/b] *deactivates her sensing and peers over the rubble* It's sort of obscured by the ship, but there's a massive droid also taking part in the construction. [b]Kavita:[/b] That must be "her", right? [b]Shiraita:[/b] Mhm. [b]Cathera:[/b] Sensed a Scale-4 display, but that could just be them using a small amount of energy. Also sensed a supposed teleportation passageway in the form of a mechanical orb. Luckily it's just one, so as soon as we attack, one of us focuses on destroying it. [b]Kavita:[/b] *raspy breather* We've gone face-to-face with [b]Terranova[/b], and survived. These organo-bots shouldn't be that much of a challenge. [b]Shiraita:[/b] *summoning her polearm* A lack of power can be made up with intellect. I'll strike first. __________________ [b][u]*Cliche--blam!- opening theme plays*[/u][/b] __________________ [b][u][FIGHT SEQUENCE][/u][/b] *[b]Shiraita[/b] vanishes, then in the middle of the construction, a long, purple energy blade is planted into the ground before disappearing as a 2nd purple energy blade performs a spinning slash attack, seemingly on its own. The attack kills a few [b]Siviurix[/b] bots that were too close within its range while most, who were further back, are slightly wounded. [b]Rydirino[/b] managed to teleport away from the attack, unaffected. [b]Shiraita[/b] reappears, this time, taking the spot of the energy blades, finishing off 4 bots with her polearm.* *Kav throws a shuriken at the head of a wounded bot who was about to fire its cannon at [b]Shiraita[/b] from behind, killing it. She then looks to her left to see another bot about to swing at her with its blade, rolling forward to evade the attack, countering with a -blam!- combo with her Razor Edge Glow, then pierces the bot's golden core, finishing it off.* *Cat moves her head to the right to dodge a cannon blast, then captures the bot right in front of her using her telekinesis, ripping it apart limb from limb. She sees a group of about 5 bots firing at [b]Shiraita[/b], responding by firing an arrow at one of the bots, hitting the target, then unleashing a green energy explosion that kills all but only one, whose left with a severed left arm. [b]Shiraita[/b] swoops in and slices off the right arm, then its head.* *Gold energy particles swarm behind [b]Shiraita[/b], coming together before materializing into this [b]Rydirino[/b]. She stands at 15 feet tall, a metallic blue head, no facial features, with a black "crown", gold glowing eyes, and black accents. Her body is a black exoskeleton with a visible gold, glowing core. Her exoskeleton, like all [b]Siviurix[/b] droids, is wide at the upper torso, and a bit more narrow lower half, but hers is covered in blue platings with black at the edges. Blue at both the upper arms and upper legs, while black at the lower arms and legs, also having gold, glowing lines at the forearms and calves and golden fingertips.* *[b]Rydirino[/b] fires a huge blast from her right hand downwards, causing a large shockwave that severely creates cracks within the ground and knocking [b]Shiraita[/b] back several meters, managing to stay on her feet. [b]Rydirino[/b] swiftly teleports again, reappearing right above Kav, who was just finishing off a bot, and sends a claw attack to the ground, generating another shockwave that hits Kav, knocking her back and off her feet. Kav lifts her chest off the ground, taking light breaths. [b]Kavita:[/b] *groans* Just to...*raspy exhale* have some extra protection... *Kav brings herself up to her knees, creating a deep wound to herself to activate her REB incarnation. Quickly seeing [b]Rydirino[/b] charge up her cannon, firing a second after, Kav jumps to the right to evade the blast, causing to hit a rocky hill, creating a large, gaping hole. A bot tries to sneak Kav with a blade, but she evades, sweeps the bot's legs, then throws a shuriken right into its face.* *Kav turns to see about 4 more bots simultaneously firing at her. She then unveils a new ability, doing so by kneeling, sheathing her blade into a black, glossy hilt that came with the activation of her incarnation, creating a purple outline around her body that causes the energy from the bots' cannons to deflect in multiple directions upon contact. Kav then pulls her blade out a slight bit before forcefully sheathing it, unleashing an attack at light speed slashing through the 4 bots as Kav appears, seemingly have teleported up close to the bots that she killed using her new ability.* *[b]Shiraita[/b] clashes with [b]Rydirino[/b], holding her own very well against the enormous droid. She slices at the droid's left leg, then to the right of her chest, then an upward slash from the polearm, doing a decent amount of damage, but not enough. As [b]Shiraita[/b] lunges at [b]Rydirino[/b], body covered in a dark purple aura, she is caught at the torso by [b]Rydirino[/b], but quickly responds by teleportation, appearing above [b]Rydirino[/b] as she drives her polearm into her head, doing some more damage.* *[b]Rydirino[/b] summons a golden outline around her body as some kind of defense mechanism, though [b]Shiraita[/b] has already distanced herself. [b]Rydirino[/b] then shifts her blade and cannon back into normal hands, emitting golden energy to use as some sort of magnet to attract the loads of body parts from deceased bots towards her, attaching the parts everywhere on her body to enhance her powers.* [b]Cathera:[/b] *dragging 2 dead bots by their arms as she walks up to observe [b]Rydirino[/b]'s strange absorption ability* Never seen a [b]Siviurix[/b] do this. [b]Kavita:[/b] *not too far from Cat, taking her blade out of the final bot* Cat, *raspy exhale* what scaling is she showing? [b]Cathera:[/b] *activating her sensing* Whoa...sensing around the middle of Scale-6. Hopefully, you can keep that incarnation last enough. *[b]Rydirino[/b] slams an enhanced version of her blade down onto [b]Shiraita[/b], who attempts to block it using a force field around her body and her polearm, but the slam breaks through both, causing her to teleport, appearing behind [b]Rydirino[/b] and gets into a position where it looks like she'll throw her polearm like a javelin, in which she does, but an exact copy of her polearm made of her energy is fired instead of the actual polearm, piercing through [b]Rydirino[/b]'s chest, very near to her core, sending off an explosion the second after, dealing some decent damage, followed up by an instant, yet delayed slash attack, [b]Shiraita[/b] teleporting again, this time, over [b]Rydirino[/b].* *Kav comes in sliding with a quick slash to [b]Rydirino[/b]'s right leg, the droid making a hasty attempt to fire under her feet, where Kav is, but she slides far enough to avoid the blast. Further away, Cat readies her bow, ready to fire until she notices a [b]Siviurix[/b] passage orb flashing a bright blue. Assuming that another [b]Siviurix[/b] bot might be coming through using this passage orb, she switches targets, charging up a shot, then releasing it, hitting the orb, causing tremendous amounts of damage, and to top it off, a bot was mid-way into coming out of the orb, its bottom half being trapped in the orb. To completely destroy it, Cat fires a telekinetic blast that even kills the bot that was about to exit it.* *[b]Rydirino[/b] activates a special ability by firing at the ground, summoning a wide rectangular prism of blue energy particles, catching Kav and [b]Shiraita[/b], who are within its range, the prism dealing a tremendous, stinging pain to the 2, causing them to hurry to get out this prism.* [b]Kavita:[/b] *quick, raspy breaths* F[b]u[/b]cking hell, that dome is excruciating. [b]Shiraita:[/b] Hopefully, it's not up for long. [b]Kavita:[/b] How will projectiles work?! [b][i]*Continuing Below*[/i][/b]

  • [b][i]*Continued Below*[/i][/b] *Kav throws a few shurikens at [b]Rydirino[/b], who is still surrounded within this prism. Upon traveling inside the prism, the shurikens lose all momentum and collapse instantly.* [b]Kavita:[/b] Physical solid projectiles don't. How about concentrated energy, [b]Shiraita[/b]? [b]Shiraita:[/b] Possibly disintegration. That dome can't be up for too long. Wait, I'm planning something. [b]Kavita:[/b] Cat over there looks like she's trying to bypass that prism dome thing. *Cat surprisingly teleports, and does it to get closer to [b]Rydirino[/b]. She then aims at the droid's core, attempting to telekinetically manipulate the use of [b]Rydirino[/b]'s energy. [b]Rydirino[/b] tries to fight back, but is getting weakened as the energy particle dome begins to diminish, giving [b]Shiraita[/b] the chance to unleash one of her ultimate attacks; multiple purple lines continuously pass through [b]Rydirino[/b], delivering an explosive multi slash attack right before [b]Shiraita[/b] teleports in with one final slash with her polearm to end her ultimate attack move. Fatally wounded, liquid seeping through the gashes throughout [b]Rydirino[/b]'s body, she collapses.* ____________ [b][u][FIGHT SEQUENCE OVER][/u][/b] *The 3 walk up to [b]Rydirino[/b], ready to put an end to her and collect the bounty.* [b]Cathera:[/b] What I did in those last several seconds was completely new. I didn't think I'd pull it off. [b]Kavita:[/b] Loving your progression, Cat. Later on, you could be moving planets with ease using only like 5% of your power. *[b]Shiraita[/b] summoning her polearm, going to execute [b]Rydirino[/b], but a loud sound is heard, coming closer to them. They turn to their right to see a large SIU ship land meters away from them. The ones exiting the ship are just random agents, no one significant, yet.* [b]Kavita:[/b] Oh, [b]Saitranovia[/b] Investigative Unit. What do they want? [b]Shiraita:[/b] They seem more focused on [b]Rydirino[/b]? What's her importance to them? A biology-warping experiment, maybe? *One more SIU agent exits the ship, revealing to be [b]Crisha[/b], who approaches the 3 rather gradually.* [b]Kavita:[/b] *lowly, to Cat, referring to [b]Crisha[/b]* Well, she looks a little too *raspy exhale* "full-figured", don't you think? [b]Cathera:[/b] *replying back in the same tone* Natural [b]Terranovian[/b] -blam!- at its peak. [b]Kavita:[/b] Could say the same for you. [b]Crisha:[/b] *to the 3* Bounty hunters? [b]Kavita:[/b] *shaking her head slowly with a confused look* Sort of...not fully committed. [b]Crisha:[/b] This is kind of a weird request, citizens of [b]Saitranovia[/b], but we have someone kept refuge in our HQ whose....mind isn't entirely there, a little mentally deranged, and she--my [b]Arckyve[/b], how do I say this? Her diet is aliens; the 4 alien races. *The 3 look slightly grossed out, Kav exclaims: "What the f[b]u[/b]ck?"* [b]Crisha:[/b] I know, and looking at it, you've taken care of this droid. You can still claim the bounty, but you don't mind if this one is in our hands? [b]Shiraita:[/b] *scanning [b]Rydirino[/b]'s body, labeling her as captured to successfully claim the bounty* Go ahead? [b]Cathera:[/b] This deranged woman? How come? [b]Crisha:[/b] Well, even I don't know why she craves aliens, I did say she was deranged, but I still care for and care about her. It's a way to tame her, so she doesn't just snap and start attacking us or the ethical people of this mainland. *sighs* Thanks, you 3, we'll probably come across each other again. *[b]Crisha[/b] and the rest of the SIU squad capture [b]Rydirino[/b] and prepare to depart.* [b]Shiraita:[/b] *to Cat and Kav* I don't mind sharing the [b]zepiks[/b]. [b]Kavita:[/b] Nahh, all yours, sis. ____________________ (Few minutes later, at some wasteland located by a large stormforest inhabited by various wildlife, Aino, the [b]annihilator[/b] twins, Kyo, Alexa, [b]Maviko[/b], and [b]Aguiro[/b] all take part in a quest to help Aino and the [b]annihilator[/b] twins obtain new [b]Enygma[/b] forms to their arsenal.) [b]Ainotias:[/b] Berserker it is. Think this area is wide enough? [b]Maviko:[/b] An ideal area could've been a bit more widespread, but it'll do. Alright, you all, let's back away; not get caught up in the acquisition. You ready, Aino? [b]Ainotias:[/b] *positioning herself in the middle of the wasteland* Yep! *Aino transforms into Stage 3 Standard [b]Enygma[/b]. She then focuses on concentrating as much energy as can, intensifying it.* [b]Maviko:[/b] Keep intensifying. Might take a minute. *As Aino continues to intensify her energy. Nearly 15 seconds in and the massive influx of energy bursts, creating a mini quake throughout the wasteland, causing the rest of the group to nearly lose their balance, excluding Alexa, who would've most likely been sent flying if it weren't for Sage forming an energy sphere around her. This burst causes Aino's energy to diminish as she drops to a knee, but she doesn't give up as she continues to intensify her energy.* [b]Alexa:[/b] My god. That burst alone felt like a 10 on an earthquake magnitude scale. *Abnormally large claws and jagged teeth start to form on Aino, indicating that she's close to unleashing the Berserker [b]Enygma[/b]. Her energy then fluctuates for several seconds before she releases one final burst, creating an even bigger quake and forming the last few details of the Berserker [b]Enygma[/b] as Aino has finally unleashed it.* [b]Maviko:[/b] Yes! You did it, Ainotias! *no response from Aino, who is just kneeled* Ainotias? *Aino in the newly acquired Berserker [b]Enygma[/b] remains kneeled, head down, not moving. In the distance, 2 freakish, 4 legged animals appear, and these are known as [b]Kalsion[/b] Beasts. Average ones are nearly 6'5 in height and 8 feet long, coming in various colors. These 2 in particular have muscular frames, dark red skin with a long, dark brown horse-like mane, and thick, dark brown fur at their lower legs, accompanying their large, rugged, glowing white claws. Glowing white eyes, and a wide jaw containing retractable, saber-like canines.* [b]Alexa:[/b] *taking cover behind Kyo* Are those those "Kalsy" beast things Cat showed me a picture of? [b]Kyokia:[/b] Yep. They're heavily territorial, and on several occasions, attack unprovoked. At least 50 to 70 casualties are caused by these beasts per year, and their power can reach to Scale-5 at max. [b]Alexa:[/b] *nervous gulp, shakily replying* Oh f-f-fu-fu-fu-f[b]u[/b]ck no. Nature on this planet is 100x scarier. [b]Aguiro:[/b] Rightly fearful, earthling. Let the [b]obliterator[/b] handle this. *As the 2 [b]Kalsion[/b] Beasts charge towards the group, Aino opens her eyes, turning back towards the 2 beasts, readying her massive claws as she rips the 2 beasts to shreds with ease. Alexa looks astonished, yet frightened at both the beasts and Aino in the Berserker [b]Enygma[/b] form.* [b]Alexa:[/b] And she made them look like a Scale-0. *Aino suddenly enters a fighting stance towards the group, her huge claws ready to strike. Her body then starts to shake and her aura begins to pulsate intensely, as if she's trying not to let the savage nature control her. Few seconds later, she drops to her knees as her form cancels out.* [b]Ainotias:[/b] *slow breather, looking up to the [b]annihilator[/b] twins* It's your chance for the Beast [b]Enygma[/b]. *Saff nods to Sage as the 2 transform into Standard [b]Enygma[/b] Stage 3. Walking up to the dead [b]Kalsion[/b] Beasts, Sage absorbs the energy of 1 while Saff claims the other. The 2 then become twice their size, donned in heavy armor with miniscule white glow around the body.* [b]Sage:[/b] *to Saff* This is kinda sweet. Think we can tank Scale-12 damage? [b]Saffyre:[/b] Maybe. *The 2 return to normal.* [b]Aguiro:[/b] And shockingly, no Saitorealm to try and stop us. Maybe cause Saitonia isn't here, and the sense of him being absent drew them away. [b]Maviko:[/b] Maybe they have some built-in "Saitonia radar". Speaking of the Saitorealm, will their first moves here gonna be a repeat? *slowly turning towards the group* Guys, I'm serious when I remind you that a lot of my memory involving the Saitorealm was wiped, I believe with the use of the Chrono [b]Enygma[/b]. I think they knew I was capable of returning back to the past to warn the chosen civilians of their inevitable crimes, as I'm doing now, just without the forewarnings that are required. For now, all we can rely on is sagacity and vigilance. ____________________ [b][u]END:[/u][/b]
