ARIES BOSS BATTLE [Closed]
Welcome to the Great Show on Earth
Who: Chosen 5 (Closed Log)
Where: Aries Stadium and Beyond
Summary: The Aries Monster Strikes unexpectedly.
When: 19th of April, 11AC, 13th hour.
Warnings: Fear, Horror, Dead bodies, Body Damage, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Battle Music: Breathe
There had been no warning. No special feeling.
Just strange things that set themselves up on all parts of the city. But for five Visitors, the situation is far different than the rising panic that is slowly building in the city. Without warning, they are whisked into a destination, as the lights of the stadium shine brightly in their eyes. There is little time to think about the irony that, once again, the stadium is at the center of the issue. How did they get here?
Before they can think or even see who their compatriots are, the lights move of their own accord, shining on a gigantic figure standing nearly twenty feet tall. There are four golden ram heads with a single body.
"LAAAAADIES AND GENTLEMEEEEEN!!!"
It can speak? As it does, the happiest of the monster's head takes forefront.
"Weeeelcome to the greatest show on earth! The one, the only...me! Have you attended my media circus yet, or were you just sleeping? Regardless, congratulations! By a purely stroke of luck, you are the Outsiders that I have picked to fight me! You're all quite a challenge so to make sure I was up to the task, I've already practiced with citizens..."
It's face moves and changes to that one that looks terrified, the sound of grinding gears and metal turning.
"How they screamed and cried for mercy! Too bad for them!"
There's a pile of people to where it points with its cane. It's not...pretty to watch. There's more than a dozen people in there, no doubt...
"Are you ready for the main attraction, Outsiders? I'll start with only you five to face me in my full splendor!" The creature bows at the visitors, snickering to itself. As they watch, the head switches to the ram's head that looks angry.
"Now then! Formalities aside, this is a life or death situation! Death for you, of course. Fooooooor in this battle there is," Aries holds up its hands and goes back to the happier face. "NO rules, NO setup, NO stage level!" Confetti falls from the stadium's celebration piles. "Now then, Outsiders, let's see if you'll be able to save your beloved city, shall we?!"
"Cue the music!"
The monster's ego was clearly huge. Well there was no chance to say hi to each other, time to quickly prepare and get ready!
[OOC: THERE IS NO SET ORDER FOR THE FIRST FEW THREADS, TAG FAST AND FURIOUSLY, FOR THOSE INVOLVED, PLEASE COME TO THIS PLURK.]
Ruri - Persona Skill - Ice Punch
Her persona appears again, to Ice punch the monster again, Ruri just sweatdroping at it and shaking her head.
"....If I survive this I need to see if this was a joke."
Sasha: Native Skill: Fire Magic, Persona Skill: Diarahan (Self), Status: Poisoned
Meanwhile, she was starting to feel a little faint. It was the wounds from before with the added effect from the poison, of that she was certain. She pulled out Kohryu again and cast Diarahan on herself. It helped, as the pain eased, but she still felt quite nauseous. Stupid poison.
Shinjiro | Persona Skill : Akasha Arts (Physical)
"If you can help us on the offensive side of things, that'd be as good as anything. If we can get that barrier you're talking about down, be more likely we can get other help coming in."
[With his opinion said, Castor appears in front of him again, continuing the physical assault against the Ringleader.]
1/2
A pointless question, perhaps, but after attempting to throw another physical attack at them and getting nothing but getting it reflected right back at itself it was becoming livid, especially as their attacks pass through and hit him.
Once the barrier's energy is spent, it wastes no time.
"I'm going to make YOU an offer you can't refuse!" With Sebastian already out of the picture, Shinjiro feels a physical cut on him, as high physical damage is slammed into him, a bright white light adding additional light damage.
The face turned over to the angry one.
"Frankly, my dearies, I don't give a damn what happens with everyone." It wasn't wasting any time, as fire erupted from its entire body, sending a painful wave of intense fire everyone's way. For everyone else, it might have been painful, but for Shinjiro, he hadn't even had enough time to get up from the previous attack. It may be wise to tend to him after that...
The face switched over to the fearful one.
"H-ha! T-that's what you all get!"
LIQUID SCAN
"Well then, I suppose sometimes there's a time to watch back and a time to go in, guns blazing...Let me just preform a final scan on him..."
"Hmmm...it appears to be changing it's strength and weaknesses every time it can...Now Krios...I know I;ve heard that one before...ahh yes! That is in relation to the Aries constellation. So this means, if my calculations are correct based on all previous battles...you should all try using your mutations!"
> Mutations are now unlocked for this battle.
"Now then, since I'll be busy with the barrier, I suppose you should all make yourselves more useful and use some of these while we work at the barrier."
A few things gently fall from the news helicopter as it passes close by, away from the distracted monster and lands near them. A large boombox, some pens, a bus stop sign, metallic bombs, and a few guns. Happy holidays from your dear uncle Q?
> You may use one(1) of these along with any persona attack. Effects will depend on what they pick and use.
Ruri - Nadesico Alpha Strike/Ghetto Blaster
Figuring Q knew what he was doing she points the speakers at the monster and flicks the on switch on as the wind kicks up around her, blowing her hair to make her almost look weightless as the Nadesico locks on with its missile racks, launching a salvo at the barrier and as that salvo finishes firing its main gun in an alpha strike against it.
no subject
The barrier is showing intense lines of cracking, as the monster looks upwards, panicking, enough for a giant missile to hit from the blaster right into one of its faces. It tethers, trying to use its cane to stay upright...
> Keep attacking its weaknesses to cause the creature to fall down!
> The Barrier is operating at 40% capacity.
Item: Mystery Pen, Persona Skill: Diarahan (Shinjiro)
Once that was done with, Sasha took a moment to appraise the situation. Shinjiro had taken multiple hits; it stood to reason that he'd be in quite some need of healing. She sent a Diarahan his way, hoping that would get him back on his feet.
Then Sasha decided to attend to the various gadgets that had been scattered about. No one should have been surprised by her decision to claim one of the pens. "What does this do?" she wondered aloud, giving it a click. If it did something, that was great; if not, at least she could claim she received a pen from Q. Speaking of Q, he had mentioned that they should start using their mutation skills, but she wasn't entirely sure when to deploy hers. Being able to negate one hit of any sort of non-almighty damage would be a great boon, but she kind of needed to make sure everyone was patched up, first...
no subject
Oh. Well just in case they were wondering if Q was being his usual self.
"Three clicks and then throw it at your target, four to stop the bomb from exploding!"
Shinjiro: Persona Skill: Evil Smile (Mind) + Bus Stop Sign |
Then, not wanting to waste the time he has, nor wanting to deplete his physical strength so quickly after recovering it, he summons Castor again, and aims for the ringleader's other weakpoint, before running up to strike the Krios with the weapon Q had so conveniently dropped. Might as well see what it can do.
ROLL FOR INITIATIVE
But that's not important right now. It's down for the count! With poor Sébastian still screaming silently, it's time for a team attack!
> Reply to this post with a number between 1-8. Don't pick the same one as another player, and if one of you pick the right one, you'll preform an all out attack!
Number: 3
Number: 7
Number: 5
ALL OUT ATTACK! (successful)
In the rush of dust and gravel, the three manage to attack the monster while it's down, dealing it additional damage. It stands there, struggling as weapons enter the softer part of its body, rendered completely silent for a few seconds.
Then there's the sound of rockets being fired from the helicopter taking advantage of the situation, as it moves just enough that its not noticed from the beast.
When all is said is done, the monster somehow manages to stand up again, but its definitely weaker. The stance is less upright than before, the cane looks like it's been cut in pieces and rust has begun to show on the heads. When it moves from one to another, they can see sparks and hear the cranking having issues.
Thankfully it also means that whatever spell was holding Sebastian in place appears to have been cleared.
>The spell's effect is gone!
It doesn't have time to counter-attack before the group goes again...
