Skew Plot End Post

Who: [open to all]
What: Closing Pandora's Box
Where: The city park
When: August 11th

The Gem of Pandora had been teleporting around the city willy nilly. Causing havoc, turning good guys evil and bad guys guys good. But no one had been able to put a handle on it.

Until now.

A small army of badniks had amassed in the park, as Eggman studied the gem... safely contained behind a, err, containment field. This way he could study it without touching it or having it warp away. Of course, he knew heroes would be around before long, so he'd invited the villain community to come and help him defend it.

In any case, even if no one came, the heroes would have a horde of badniks to contend with.

[ooc: you can try to get to the gem, or you can be a villain and help Eggman contain the gem. Either way, this is the finale of the personality skew plot and it will be destroyed by the end of this thread]

Blake had just enough time to hear Cyborg's warning before the shadow dropped across the three of them. She just manages to jump back but still sees Yang get smashed into the ground.

"Dragon!" No time to get to her though as a hammer comes down at her, flattening one of her illusory clones while she dashes around and jumps onto it, recalling Cyborg's message and trying to slash at the base of its helmet.

The Hammers' helmets go flying off, revealing their smaller, more Pawn-proportioned helms beneath. That doesn't stun them much...

... but what happens next does, because from the handy crater Yang just made, yellow fire now erupts...

... As does Yang herself, whose flaming aura is now raging. Her eyes are now a deep red color, as she launches herself forward, swinging a punch at their armored hides, which actually does something, sending one Hammer flying into the other.

Escudo is very visibly surprised at Yang's sudden recovery and strength, his eyes wide as he mutters to himself in Spanish. "¡Tan fuerte... qué mujer!"

He blocks another blow from a bot that tries to come up from behind her, but decides to let her handle the offensive while he guards her rear.

"The gem! It is not far!"

Blake clears out of the way from the living fireball that is Golden Dragon. A powerful jump carries her straight up as the Hammer she'd been perched on is suddenly gone.

"I see it!" Sure enough, there's the Gem among Dr. Eggman's various devices. He's trying to move it, they're running out of time.

As she hangs in midair, Blake's own aura flares up around her, a purple light that gathers around the edge of her blades, the same energy that allowed her to project her shadow duplicates but... in a different application.

She swings twice and sends two wide, curved waves of purplish energy through the air, aimed right at Eggman's machinery.

"How do you think?!" Yang cried, smashing a group of badniks rushing to Eggman's defense with a hammer she'd appropriated from one of the destroyed Egg Hammers.

"By the way, I'm keeping this."

Escudo sees the gem cracking and runs to place himself between it and his allies. He channels his energy at full power into his shield, and it begins to glow brightly as he yells back to the girls...

"FRIENDS! GET BEHIND ME, IT IS GOING TO-"

-- explode. Escudo doesn't need to finish his sentence for Blake to see the signs of incoming disaster. She looks toward the shield and starts toward it, only to pause, and glance toward Eggman. Still in range of the explosion.

....

Snapping her weapon back into a single piece, she darts not toward the shield but toward the scientist in a flash.

"Move!" She calls out even as she reaches to grab him and pull him toward the shelter by the first handhold she can find.

Which.

There is a very good chance is his mustache.

Someone else was going to make sure Eggman and Blake got to that shield, and that someone is Yang. Using a burst from her gauntlets, she rockets forward, grabs Blake around the waist as she rockets past, taking her and dragging Eggman along behind them.

They get in range of Escudo's shield just in time, because the Gem of Pandora explodes seconds later. Thankfully, Eggman's failing containment causes the energies contained to shoot up into the sky rather than be spread throughout the city, but there's just enough good old explosive force to tear through the remainder of Eggman's badniks.

Once the dust begins to clear, it's replaced by a literal flock of adorable birds rising from their remains.

Escudo channels as much of his power as he can at the moment of the explosion so his glowing shield dissipates all of the heat and kinetic energy from the blast that it comes in contact with.

He grimaces and then smiles weakly, muttering to himself in Spanish before passing out from exhaustion. The ground is charred black, except for the parabolic-shaped safe area behind where the young man held his shield.

Blake ignores Eggman's complaining about his mustache, focusing on dragging him back to the shield and fearing that even she is too slow.

And then Yang is there, snatching her off the ground and carrying her to safety with the doctor in tow. They reach the shield just in time and Blake hunches over, releasing Eggman's stache to cover her nonhuman ears. Even so, the sound from the explosion is like a gong going off in her head and she squeezes her eyes shut in a sharp wince.

Finally, once the racket from the blast dies down she lifts her head slowly, looking out over the resulting damage to the area.

"... Ow." She shakes her head, ears still ringing. "Is everyone okay?"

Yang grunted as she picked herself up, stretching and feeling her joints pop as she did so.

"I'm fine," she said, even though she looked rather weary. A side effect of her powers catching up to her. "... so... I guess that means we did it?"
descendsfromshadow: (Seriously?)

"Good luck with that." She muttered after Eggman's disappearance.

She looked toward Yang, nodding to her and then past her to where Escudo lay on the ground and blinked.

"What about him?" She made her way over to kneel beside the downed swordsman, reaching out to check that he wasn't hurt.
