Post #72 [Cecil]

[Time for more Cecil goodies. Don't grab the pitchforks, folks. :P]

ChaosGallentmon looked at the assumedably-dead form of Bob and laughed to himself about humans and how easy of a job it would be to exterminate the rest of them.

[Again, there's that arrogance of CGM's kicking in. :P]

His attention was abruptly caught as a giant gout of flames suddenly pummeled him mercilessly. Chaos had soon be forced to retreat back behind a wall nearby. He hadn't take much damage, but the fire had melted and destroyed much of his upper armor, and that was quite angering to him.

[CGM loves looking intimidating. He can't look so intimidating with his upper armor destroyed. XD]

"Who dares to attack my beautiful armor! That was a gift by the Nomad for my services!!"

"Nomad will go boom!" the voice of Nebiroth boomed back, as the large demonoid friend of Bob stepped out, having been watching the previous farce. ChaosGallentmon didn't expect this, and was in a strangely half-pale, half-startled expression as he saw Nebiroth's face...

He looks like... some kind of horrible monster!

[Yeah to be fair, if you saw the troll/demon equalvalent of Two-Face stomping towards you, you'd be freaked out too. :P]

Nebiroth heard this thought, and growled "Nebiroth have yet to show you 'horrible!' Prepare to battle! Hurt Bob, now you suffer!!"

["Bob is Nebiroth friend!" XD]

Nebiroth growled, as his stomach again let out a torrent of continous flames at ChaosGallentmon. The digimon knight saw this though, and started darting around and avoiding the blasts. He soon got by them and swung his blade and attempted to cleave Nebiroth in half, but the sword clanged with a sickening cracked, and Nebiroth's stomach was too rigid for his sword to have any damage.

["Sickening cracked"? Lol... more grammar monsters attacking! :o]

"He's like a living piece of titanium!" ChaosGallentmon growled at his chipped sword, as he was again assaulted by a barrage of flames. He may have been stronger than him, but Nebiroth was much predictable in his attacks, he thought. However, Nebi had been silently charing his tri-stacked laser, and had timed a dodge of his flames by ChaoGallentmon and forced him to jump right into the path of the large laser. Without some of his armor, ChaosGallentmon took some moderate and noticable damage, as he now had burn marks all over him, as his stunned form left him open to more flames of Nebiroth's.

[Like a Digi-Deer in the headlights! :P]

Chaos thought enough was enough, and vanished and reappeared next to Nebiroth, taking the large demonoid by surprise just a little. "Heh, wasn't expecting me to make it back into your face again, did you? I believe I have an idea about a sore spot with you!" he said, and shot a ion beam into Nebiroth's top face, inflicting a small level of damage, but ChaosGallentmon had noticed this and realized his assumption had been right. "Your face is a soft spot. I'm sure you're not going to be near as easy as those flesh-bag humans, but it won't be long before I also destroy you!"

[Yes, important note. This is referencing Nebiroth's only real 'weak spot': his head. Like most bosses in the Ghouls N' Goblin's series, the head of the boss is the only place you can inflict damage. The rest of the body is nigh-invulnerable to most weapons and attacks.]

Nebiroth hadn't listened to that very last thought, as a familar voice echoed in his head \DODGE!!\

Nebiroth suddenly saw waves of spiritual distortion form at a quick rate behind the scheming ChaosGallentmon. Soon the waves formed into another new creature, a giant snakeoid with three extending heads and necks, one yellow, one red, and one blue.

[Oh... snapple...]

Hydra?! thought Nebiroth, jumping over to the side. ChaosGallentmon took that action fortunately as a mistaken sign of fear of him on Nebi's part, not seeing the summoned Hydra finishing his materialization onto the mortal plane.

[Yeah, big time snapples. XD]

It was then for ChaosGallentmon that stop about stopped.

[XD. "Stop about stopped". It's supposed to be "time about stopped", Cecil you ninny. :P]

"DELTA-FLARE!!!" said the form of Hydra, causing Chaos to turn towards him, "What the?! Who are you... AHHHHHH!!!!" as the delta-elemental summon unleashed a combination fire, ice and thunder wave upon the taken-off-guard ChaosGallentmon.

He was not even expection the Delta-Flare attack to hit him as he was engulfed with the energy, and sent flying in the opposite direction, back past Hydra, and into a laser trap from the outer grid of the complex, and then being unleashed upon by torent of the complex's energy attacks, which furtherly added insult to injury. The attack left ChaosGallentmon unconscious, and badly injured, debatably moreso than Bob had been.

[Yeah, again CGM is barely more than a Diamond Dog level threat at this point in the IF. He will get an upgrade later though. :P]

As for Bob himself, he had gone unconscious, and hadn't even noticed most of the fight around him, or the form of Sandra picking him up after summoning Hydra in a surprise effort to save Bob and Nebiroth for the time being. She knew they had to still finish the job, but this time she was going to make sure they ALL worked together, and that no one attempted playing hero by themselves. She walked up to Nebiroth. Hydra had vanished back into the land of winds and ghosts as soon as his Delta-Flare attack had ended.

[Yeah, again... Sandra can summon creatures to help her out in battle. A lot similar to the summoners in the FF series. Her summons however are not your traditional FF summons, but other types of familar and unfamilar characters. o.o]

Sandra asked, "Nebiroth, you okay?"

"Yes, but he find Nebiroth spot point. He know Nebiroth has partial weakness in defense now. Must be finished off!" he looked over to the comatose ChaosGallentmon.

[Of course, he's not going to be just yet. :P]

"I know, but we'd better get the others to help us first. Bob almost got his torso handed to him by that thing!" She then looked down on Bob.

[A minor EB reference here. Except replace 'head' with 'torso'.]

I know you like me, Bob. I've been able to figure that out, but you didn't have to pull what you did, even if you did do some damage to him! She had said to herself mentally, and not as a telepathic message.

['Some damage'? Sadly even a BFG 9000 barely damaged him. :(]

Back in the safe part of the complex, Sandra with Bob in tow, and Nebiroth quickly got the others to unseal the doors to let them back in, and then reseal them behind them. "You gotta get him to a place to heal." Sandra asked Zac and Brett, "He got hammered badly before we got to him. Out intruder is still in the complex, but his lights are out for the moment, so we may be able to find him before he recovers and find out what he knows, but I didn't want to bring him in here in case he had someway of breaking free and attacking from the inside."

[In hindsight, I mentioned Sandra CAN heal people, but the problem is I think I forgot about it at the time, that or I wanted Sandra conserve her energy reserves for later. I forget the exact reason I didn't have her personally heal Bob herself. :\]

"Yes! Should we finish knight-being, or interogate him?!" Nebiroth chimed in with asking the two brothers. It was their complex, so they had to make this decision....

[Yeah, leaving it more open ended for someone else to make that decision. I was hoping they'd leave him alive for a little while longer myself. I wanted to see what Speedy or Plasma would have him do next. :o]

[Just in case you were wondering about "Hydra", Sandra can summon various monsters like a summoner can, if you have managed to read some of her bio]. and Hydra was one of them. However they go back to where they came from, so Hydra's not an actual AC, just to clear it up. Sorry if that had confused a few people. -_-; Glad the IF's picking back up again. I sure hope Frozen doesn't die. This IFing experience is raising my writing morale a great deal in the last 2 years almost.]

[Yeah, summoned characters were temporary characters in the IF who only appear when summoned into battle, or in one other type of situation you'll see later. They don't count as ACs. :P]
