[Starting] [So Kahlya, having been away, arranges her match via telephone, on conference call with Warlow and Vega.] The choice of an arena is left to both combatents. Do you have any requests Kahlya? * Kahlya hmms into the mouthpiece, checking out these new fangled telephony devices. "Um...not particularly. Is it...generated special for this event?" Depends on the location, sometimes we can use prexisting locations. Well...I'd prefer something at night with a decent amount of cover... Straight out fights are just sooooo boring sometimes...gotta be something to spice it up.." That's acceptable. Anything specific in mind? Nu-uh. I believe we may have something. [So, the lot of you are taken to a condemned hotel lobby with faux imperial style.] [Two stories, there's more but out of view. The lobby is square. The central square is two stories high, beyond that a balcony seperates the first and second floors.] [There's a series of pillars supporting the balcony.] [Also doors out to the side to bathrooms, staff areas and the like.] [The second floor is accessable by staircase or elevators.] [Oh, and not surprising there's a fair amount of furniture and the like to hide behind in the central area]] [Warlow, breaker, and the two of you are present in the arena.] [The observation area is a nearby building, quite comfortable, couch, big screen TV that switches to the best view from the cameras. There's several smaller screens if the combatents are seperated.] [There's a buffet spread, cause it's morning.] [Start.] * Miles appears in a small flash, holding Red tight by the arm and smiling. He's in a much better mood since the last anyone's seen. Glancing around he takes in who's there apart from him and Red. * Tim walks in with his own bowl of probibly not evil popcorn and sees the buffet, "oh... now they give us food." * Red wobbles a bit, evidently unbalanced by the trip. She opens her eyes and looks around.) Suppose one on first floor, one on second to start. Good morning, Tim. Food?! * Red eyes the food and frowns. Maybe in a little bit. What kind! * Red looks at the buffet. "Breakfast spread. Oh, and they have tea. How good of them." * Miles walks over and looks at the food. Do they have salmon and eggs? XD 'morning Red... and I see you've found it yourself. I'll take second. * Red gets herself some tea, because that's what British people drink in the morning. * Tim munches on popcorn because he doubts they have cold pizzia. * Kahlya walks in slowly towards the middle of the group, usual bundle in hand around her back. Except this time her outfit is, uh, a baseball uniform? Complete with red cap fitted to her head. She waves as she approaches. "I'm here! I'm here!" * Vega is in an urban camoflauge outfit, she's got a shotgun and a range of grenades as well as a stun prod, and a pistol on her side. Her backpack has a range of pockets, all easily accessible. Huh, I guess we bored Frei away... it's too bad he'd probibly make some horrible joke about sex and baseball right now. * Kahlya then looks over Vega slowly. "Ooo...it all looks so...so scary ... please don't hurt me." * Kahlya cowers a little for effect, before her cat-slit eyes rest on Breaker, giving her an even gaze. * Miles gets some salmon (whoho!) and eggs and bread. Nothing really heavy like bacon or ham, and nonono cheese. He takes his plate and sits on one of the comfy chairs and starts to eat happily. "Uh-huh?" * Vega looks oddly at Kahlya. "Do you not wish to fight?" * Red smiles. "Yes, he probably would." And Kahlya, goes for the poor frightend little girl routine... which if I hadn't seen her fight might work... let's see if Vega's done her homework. Vega won't fall for it. Or, if she does believe it, she likely won't care. * Miles blinks. "What's Vega good at again?" Combat. She'll probably be using a fairly standard-issue assault rifle, I'd guess. Or she may prefer unarmed fighting, but I doubt it. Judging by the way she's dressed... shooting things, Saldin said she's very competent... so I guess I'm kinda glad Angel called me out. Uh... * Kahlya gets an embarrassed look at Vega and puts her hands together in front of her, scrunching up and fidgetting. "Well, I don't know if I can compete...there's all sorts of strong-looking people here..." She doesn't use magic? * Tim shakes his head, "Not that the monks could tell." * Breaker snickers. Angel? * Kahlya glances at Breaker evenly and innocently. "Hmm?" Who's Angel? Yeah, insane woman, works for SAB, shoots people who are chained to walls? Any of that ring a bell Miles? Angel the socio-yes, her. * Kahlya then breaks out into a faint smile. It may be a little feral, maybe not. "I don't think we've officially met. I'm Kahlya Rashid." She sticks out her hand towards Breaker, keeping her eyes solidly on her. I'm afraid you'll have to decide if you wish to fight before the it begins. Otherwise, you're welcome to yield if you feel outmatched. Oh, her! She WHAT?! * Kahlya ignores Vega's comment. Boo. Shot somebody who'd been bitten by a werewolf, in the heart... just to see if it would work. ... And? * Breaker extends a hand to shake and twitches slightly when she touches Kahlya and quickly lets go. * Vega just stands there for now. * Kahlya just looks at Breaker oddly, tilting her head. "Something wrong?" It did, so she decided to try shooting the next one somewhere else... to see if silver would make a non-leathal wound kill. * Breaker shakes her head. "Surpressing kill instinct." * Warlow smiles slightly. "Good girl." Are you done with the mind games now? * Kahlya snaps her fingers suddenly, forgetting the awkward moment almost instantly. "Oh yeah! SMEE's supposed to be in here! She...huh?" She glances at Breaker. "Oh..well I'm not going to...right. Can I talk to SMEE after this match is over? I reaaaaaaally need to talk to them.." * Red notes the handshake. "Well. It seems Breaker doesn't like something about Kahlya." * Miles looks positively furious, which is really kinda cute. But... getting in his way would be a bad idea, yes? "Where can I find 'Angel?'" Dunno, she'll show up for our fight... if she doesn't bring anything leathal to it... you're welcome to beat up on her too. * Kahlya then looks back and forth between Warlow and Breaker, back to Warlow. She seems to have missed something. More importantly, she seems to have forgotten ALL about Vega. * Warlow nods. "Certainly." Breaker still seems distracted. * Vega stays eerily still. Miles, I understand how you feel, but now is not the time to go hunting after her. * Kahlya swivels around and smiles happily on Vega finally now, thunking her bundle on the ground. She seems way too cheery. "Okaaaaaay~" she whistles out and unties it with an unnecessary flourish, hefting her steel-blue scythe on her shoulder like a baseball bat. "Batter up!" * Miles clenches his fists, fire visibly emitting from where he's holding onto the plate. He calms down somewhat after Red's words, but doesn't look any less angry. "I... She will pay for that, even if I have to search for a more powerful of my kind..." * Vega nods, she proceeds upstairs. Calm down Miles she's not in here, and the fighting's supposed to happen over there. * Tim points at TV. I'll call start on the way out. [Warlow and Breaker head to the exit.] * Kahlya grins at Breaker's comment and gets in battle-ready stance. No need for that, I think. Next time she does something of that sort - and there is very likely to be a next time - a suitable punishment will be found for her. Oh yeah, just like the last time, "Don't do it again." No, no. * Red hefts her rifle. "Suitable punishment." Ready, and go! Aaah, very suitable. * Miles sits down and calms some more. "I have a punishment in mind for her current transgressions. Uh... How much to people need to sleep again?" Depends on the person. I get by fine on seven hours a night. Normal ones? five-eight hours or so? [Vega stays out of sight for the moment.] Anno... That would work. * Miles smiles. * Red raises an eyebrow. "Miles, what are you planning?" * Tim grins back at Miles, "I don't know, but if she doesn't shoot herself in the face during my match... he's welcome to try it." [Vega has taken cover on the second floor, she's got a grenade and her shotgun ready.] Anno, people seem to adore this... 'telephone' thing. Even getting up in the middle of the night to answer it. * Kahlya attunes herself more to using her ears than her vision to look for Vega, taking cover and starting up the mist from around her. Let's obscure things a little more. * Red frowns. "Shotgun? That will hurt." Crank calls? Nah, not enough and they can be traic.... Oh hey they started! Mist? Nice touch. Could be useful, too. * Miles grins and the phone goes off, even though there isn't a phone TO go off. Okay. And next? Okay, you've made her mad and crainky, now what? [Kahlya can tell about where Vega is on the second floor, but she's keeping still and quiet so she's only sure within a yard or so.] Who says there has to be anything else? * Miles watches the match while he talks. The phone goes away. That's just... not enough, even if you kept it up for a couple of weeks. Ah. So all you're going to do is ruin her sleep? * Miles quirks his head. "Anno, I could also make her say things she never ment to." ^_^ Well, I wholeheartedly approve of pranks being played on her. But I'd need to hear her talk first... I'll see what I can do. * Ari walks into the room, clad in her usual attire. "Good morning, everyone." * Ren pops in a burst of fur. He looks rather ... catty. "So, did the show start yet?" * Kahlya waits for the mist to fully form, obscuring her movements, then hovers just above the floor so there's no foot steps. She grins to herself as she makes her way underneath where she thinks Vega is...the mist following her...(con) (WAAAAAH! * Miles is now known as Mls.) * Tim waves at Ari and offers the bowl of popcorn, "G'moring, and they just got off." ( Snicker. ) * Miles loks at Ari. "Hi Ari! And Ren!" Ari! Good morning. ( 3 letter names with GREEN EYES. ) (Tim doesn't have green eyes.) [Kahlya can hear her move slightly in the direction that Kahlya's coming for as this happens, she can adjust her targetting accordingly.] (*changes his eyes to green.) And hello, Ren. I missed your fight; how'd it go? (I have brown eyes ;_;) ( Miles could fix that. ) * Ren yawns, and stretches. "I kicked that little punks ass, myaa." (as soon as he fixes his name) * Ari politely declines the popcorn and looks over at Ren. [As Kahlya starts moving so does Vega in the direction of the edge of the balcony.] * Kahlya whispers out low under her breath. "Got--cha~" before her scythe tip crystalizes with super-cold frost. She swings at where she thinks she is, the blade freezing the floor before it touches it before the frost-weakened bricks shatter under the cut. * Red nods, and decides her stomach has settled enough to nibble at some breakfast food. * Ren watches the TV. "Oooooh." Ari, have you and Ren met? So pull up a chair or the couch and let's see if they'll do anything. That's gonna leave a-- Huh wha? [As the attack comes Vega tosses her grenade in the air, losing no momentum as she puts a gas mask on with her other hand. As this happen ice spikes rip through the floor beneath her. She doesn't move quite fast enough to get out of the way but doesn't stop...] * Miles hops down off his seat and walks over to Ari. He's already eaten his foodage. "Where have you been?" * Tim looks over at the TVs. * Ren blinks at Ari. Is Ari cute? * Ren shrugs. "Ren Ran, nice't'meethca." Oooh, so close. * Ari looks at Red. "Not officially, though I have heard of him." Then she sits down and looks over at Miles. "I've been busy with work, Miles." After that, she politely nods to Ren. "Ari." Can you tell me something about it? ^^ [She then hits the balcony and hooks it with a foot, hanging by the rail as she swings to hang upside down from it.] ... she'a like Batman, only a chick and military. * Ari keeps one eye on the screen, seemingly having no trouble dividing her attention. "I think you would find it rather boring." Pretty much, Ren. [Crysalis nicely cuts through the floor and into the above target. Hearing +6 or visual awareness roll] ...And that ladies and gentlemen is why I was going to make sure the areana was going to be nice and flat, but with big heavy things to hide behind. I'm putting my money on her. [Vega did look like she was hurt by that attack.] [Kahlya gets a chance to try to dodge the grenade falling down through the hole!] I'm not betting on this match. Kayhla may be strong, but if you rely too much on strength and tricks, you forget how to really fight. * Ari nods. Gotta have more than one plan, let's see what they've got. And this chick gots a plan. Plan? What kinda plan? She knew that was coming. Does every bloody group know SAB's fighters? [As harmless chunks of the cieling come down on Kahyla she doens't manage to bring her scythe up in time to deflect the grenade which explodes immediately on contact with the floor as greeen smoke starts spewing out of the point of impact. It's pretty damn load as it does so. Awareness roll, +6 to hearing.] ... I did not just bloody cuss like that damned bloody brit. Probibly. If they have performed sufficient research... [Kahlya, even so manages to hear the sound from the balcony behind her, just in time to hear Vega hanging from the balcony upside down and firing her shotgun.] Hmm, Ari? Can I put you in charge of doing a little more research? I know I've asked a lot of you, but you'd probibly be the fastest. Seems like it. Lucky me. Yessya did! * Ari looks over at Tim. "What do you want me to do?" [Defense roll, second of the round, double barrel so potential autofire. +1 to defense.] See? Knows her moves. Find out who they are, what they can do... I'm not going to ask for the impossible like combat recordings, but knowing even a little bit... * Kahlya coughs from the smoke and tries to whirl around at the gun shot, imposing her scythe in the way of the bullet. I'd love to get some help, but I don't think any of you will help me since I'm not fighting SAB. "They" being your current opponents? ( fighting for SAB ) [Kahlya is knocked back by the spread of rubber pellets, she blocks a small number but takes the rest hard and is knocked back. The wounds sting like crazy but she's not bleeding.] [Vega disappears from view at that, doesn't help that the smoke is rising fast.] [Vega uses the backwards momentum from the shotgun blast to make a quick roll upwards through the air, catching on a light fixture in the center part of the lobby.] Of course if you just want to give them to the people fighting for the real SAB team I can't complain much. Hard information would be delightful. I can tell generally how good they are at fighting, but I can only read in so far, really. * Ren smirks. "Yeah, you need the help more." * Kahlya hisses as welts form on her skin and looks, coughing. She looks about for Vega then opens up her ears, getting away from the smoke first. (In which direction are you moving?) (Just away from the smoke until she can hear Vega again.) (Towards the lobby or one way or another under the balcony?) * Ari looks slightly puzzled. "You act as if I would discriminate." (Staying under the cover of the balcony) Well, since I'm technicaly working for one of the other teams at the moment, it's up to you. * Tim looks around for beutiful girls and or monks, "But I'm hoping SAB does win this.." * Miles is all Tim's got. Sorry. * Ren glances at Red. She counts as a bueatifal girl, don't she? * Red most certainly does. She also grins. "You just want to make sure Angel gets hers, and *then* you'll switch sides?" (Not on the same level as Yvonne :P) * Tim waves a hand, "Nah, I was just going to fight untill the first time one of you challanged me and then give up... and cheer for whoever was fighting Angel." Ah. In that case, I won't challenge you. Aww gee thanks. ... that's kinda stupid. Whoevers better should go on for the mutual sake of SAB If you'd win, you shouldn't fold so easy. ... But I'm not fighting _for_ SAB, you see? Not in name. [Kahlya hears a slight groaning and breathing from a light fixture in the ceiling of the central part of the lobby.] Yes, and the name is the important thing here. But if you are entering this tournament, you should be prepared to fight your hardest, regardless of whom you are fighting and fighting for. Otherwise, what is the point? I'LL challenge you then. If you're gonna fold so damned easy. You arn't fighting for SAB, so I'm sorry to say I'll have to take you on. Anno, doesn't Tim have a fight to do first? He'll just have to get in line. You're next, after Edge, then. I'll look forward to it. * Ren points a finger at Tim, cocks the thumb, and mouths 'Bang.' Good luck with Edge, Ren. * Miles blinks. * Tim snaps his fingers. * Red smirks. "And good luck with Ren, Tim." [Kahlya manages to get out of the smoke rather quickly, but not before she inhales some of it.] [She's hurt by acrid smoke and has trouble seeing and most everything else. +2 penalties. But it's still her turn!] And Kahlya picked just the wrong moment to inhale. This looks bad. Luck's got nothinig to do with it. And ow. Whoever figths her next, bring a gasmask. I shall add that to my observation data. I think I can pick one up somewhere. Anno, that looks painful. * Tim grins, "I'll just take hers." And if you wish me to have actual results that you can use before your fights begin, I should start my research now. * Ari stands up. Thanks Ari. Thanks, Ari. * Kahlya winces at that but that's okay. She's using her ears mostly. "So that's the way you're gonna play it huh? Fine. Let's get you to stop moving then.." She pulls her scythe back and concentrates on the breathing, mist gathering around the tip. "Chilling stream!" She lets loose her frozen mist, spreading out towards Vega. It's not a problem. I shall see you all later. You'd do that? * Ren shrugs. "Well, seeya." I would. * Miles gives Ari a hug. "Bye Ari!" * Ari is hugged and looks very surprised, before giving Miles a somewhat stiff and awkward hug in return. * Tim wistles, but if it's for Miles or Kahlya's latest attack it's anybodies guess. * Miles lets go and looks over at Tim. * Ari waves and heads out. [Vega successfully anticipates the attack and dives off to the side as the light fixture gets embedded in ice and falls to the ground, Vega does take damage on the way though and is looking quite hurt. As she is falling she drops another grenade and opens her shotgun with the energy from the impact on the floor. She stuff another two shells in as she rushes into the gas, her hand reaching down to her belt.] [Kahlya gets a chance to react to the fall of the grenade, different sort than the tear gas for the record, blue stripe.] C'mon, HIT her! * Kahlya looks up at the grenade and...well apparently she's properly dressed, because she's going to "batter up" the grenade. Flashbang. The cameras should adjust, tho. Wow that's bright! * Ren raises an eyebrow. [Kahlya hits the grenade with a powerful blow resulting in a satisfying crack. Wait, no, not satisfying, deafening. Because it explodes on impact in the exact same manner as the last grenade, Kahyla's hit suceeds in getting it to start to move in Vega's direction, although really it's loud enough anyone in the room is hearing it.] Anno... 'Flash Bang' was what that was? * Tim wince and poinst at the screen. [There's also a flash, but it's pretty weak.] Lotsa light and noise, not much else. * Miles nods. * Ren winces involuntarilly. [ * Red looks away from the screen until it clears. [Kahlya hears a dull ringing in her ears, nothing else. She sees just fine though.] [Vega meanwhile is waiting in the smoke with her gun pointed out, there's one last grenade on the floor, purple stripe. It's pretty hard to see though.] [Kahlya's turn, Vega was last seen rushing into the smoke. [Which is now easily thick enough to mutually obscure vision.] [If it's any comfort, Vega probably can't hear either.] * Kahlya blinks out as she looks around for Vega. Through her own mist. Okay, one last go...she aims for the smoke with another Chilling Stream ...magic surppression grenade. Oh, lovely. * Tim squints at the screen, "There's a definate canidate for LEO... where is it?" * Miles 's ears fold back. "Magic supression?" ... like I said. Kayhla's strong, but that's all. * Red sighs. "Sadly, this fight seems about over." [The chilling stream wraps the pillars underneath the balcony in ice, looks like they may collapse once the ice melts.] [Kahlya's beginning to feel the impact of all she's been doing.] [Extra attack!] [The grenade, for the record, is not well positioned because Kahyla didn't pursue at all.] * Kahlya starts huffing, letting the mist dissipate a little. She concentrates this moment on regaining her composure. (Giving one attack towards total defense) [she still may be in the impact radius, but should have a comparitively easy time dodging.] [ And now Kayhla's panicking. [Kahyla choose wisely as she suddenly sees sparkling flak blowing out from the area of smoke. -4 bonus because she's well aways form the impact point of this grenade.] I wonder how much that magic grenade'll affect her. [Kahyla successful leaps back in time, give me a sixth sense roll, and the sparkling flak hangs in the air in front of her.] I hope not too much.. From that far away? Who knows. * Ren stretches again, purring and shifting position to something more comfortable. * Kahlya smirks a little and regrips her scythe. She says something, even though Vega probably can't hear it. "Neat trick. But this is still a rather sharp piece of metal. I don't think that'll stop it entirely..." [Vega meanwhile rushes out from the smoke leaping slightly in the air to fire at with her shotgun. As the gun pushes her back with one hand she grabs on the balcony and flips herself up to the second floor (includes both gas and flak at this point, hole in the floor and all....] Enjoying the match, Ren? It's over already. [She knocks the shotgun open on the balcony during the flip, stuffs another set of shells in it as she retreats back into the balcony.] * Miles finds his way near Ren and starts scritching him on the head. [Kahlya successfully deflects the shells this time.] * Ren purrs more audibly. "Myaa... Khayla's out of tricks." * Kahlya grins at that and readies her scythe. "We'll see if your luck holds out.." She rushes and attacks the supports, getting out of the way before the whole thing collapses. Never underestimate big heavy things moving at a high rate of speed... sharp ones are even better. * Ren blinks. "Or myaaaaa-be not." [Ironically, while causing more property damage, Kahyla wanders directly underneath the light fixture she frooze earlier, which looks as if it's about to crash to the ground after the impact tremor from the collapsing balcony.] [The balcony collapses, reducing but not eliminating the smoke and flak in that area, although there's now a large debris field...] ...Oooh that's gonna leave a mark. * Ren claps. "Beautifal." Oooouch. * Red eyes Ren. [However, she looks up just in time to step to the side when the large ice enveloped light fixture comes crashing to the ground right next to her.] Tim> ...Or not. [Vega made a jump and roll back into the stairway behind the balcony.] * Kahlya shrieks a bit at it coming down, but keeps looking for that stupid Vega and her stupid grenades and stupid stupid stupid... * Ren curls up again, keeping one eye on the TV, the other closed in contentment. * Tim grabs a few kernals from his long forgotten bowl of popcorn. * Red shakes her head. * Miles keeps on scritching. * Ren keeps on purring. * Kahlya closes in on Vega and her eyes flash. She doesn't seem to happy as she swipes at her, hovering full speed. Not happy at all. [Kahlya suceeds in entering the stair case, she rushes successfully into it swinging at Vega. Unfortunately for her she over swings and imbeds the tip in the side of staircase.] * Tim facepalms, "Oooh maan." * Red frowns. "That won't do." * Kahlya growls. "Dammit!" She tries to yank it free, watching Vega as she does so. * Vega smiles slightly and fires her shotgun at Kahlya at point blank. She continues to look in quite bad shape, with quite a good number of bleeding wounds. * Ren raises an eyebrow. That's all he does though, he's too content to do much else. * Miles could make him more content. Is that fish I smell? [Unexpected she misjudges the distance and misses, she wastes no time though in rushing past Kahyla while drawing and swinging her electronic prod one handed.] [Kahlya successfully gets the blade out of the wall in time. However, Vega doesn't stop running and enters the gas and flak cloud while reloading her shotgun once again.] * Kahlya runs after, eyes narrowing. "Get back here!" ... and she missed. The hell? Mmm. Is she running into the magic grenade? * Miles idly thinks, a small scent of fish expanding around the room. Strangely, only he and Ren can smell it, though. * Ren sniffs. I think so. * Ren sits up, looking around and sniffing. * Miles giggles and lets Ren do his thing. There's some fish by the buffet. Really! [Kahyla successfully reenters the anti-magic flak sticking to her body and the gas filling her lungs again. It's dispersed some, so she can see better.] You like fish Ren? ^_^ * Ren teleports a few feet at a time, locking onto the fish anew each 'port. "Mya... love it." [The fish is with the eggs benedict.] * Miles 's three tails are swaying behind him independent of eachother, and he has a rather happy grin on his face. * Kahlya doesn't care and swipes. * Tim glances at Ren, "What is he doing?" Looking for fish of course! * Miles winks at Tim. * Red grins. * Tim looks at the table, "And what happens... if he doesn't find the fish?" Oh, he'll find it. ^_^ [Vega doesn't get out of the way in time, and is knocked down and quite possibly out by the first swipe] His senses are too acute to not. * Ren finds the fish! And swipes it, 'porting off somewhere with it. Even if the fish isn't there any... damn. * Kahlya stops her second swipe short and covers her mouth. Coughing. Now that Vega's down, she takes the time to try and create a gas mask. [Kahlya manages to block most of the gas, her lungs are still burning though. * Kahlya keeps moving out while she's trying to create anyhow. Stupid noxious gasses. * Ren 'ports back in, grabs more fish, and 'ports out again. He's even all stealthy-like about it. [Kahlya manages to get out of the cloud, which is a good thing, cause her mask doesn't exactly filter as such.] * Red laughs once he's gone. * Miles giggles. * Tim shakes his head and then teleports the plate of fish to behind the couch. * Kahlya coughs as she gets out of the cloud and staggers. "Stupid...grenades...and their stupid...throwers.." She pants and holds her sides. She looks like a bruised up mess and her face is more than a little pale from the gas, but she's up at least. * Miles makes another plate of fish on top of the TV. [And looks like Vega's staying down.] And SAB racks up it's second victory, congrats. There's a surprise. Looks like Kahlya's won. * Miles claps. "Yay!" * Red nods. [After a bit Breaker and Warlow come out. And move their lips. Yet all Kahyla hears for now is a buzzing.] Kahlya takes her cap off and throws it in the air, letting it dissipate in a puff of smoke. She looks blearily at Breaker and Warlow, woozing. She then tries to stand up and puts herself back in her proper clothes, using her scythe as a crutch. [She succeeds at that.] * Kahlya grins at Breaker weakly. "How'djya like the show?" * Ren 'ports back in yet again, then blinks a moment at the moved fish. [Breaker and Warlow make a few comments to each other. Breaker looks to her and says something but she can't hear it.] (and now there are two sources of fish!) [They give quick congratulations and then realize that her hearing is gone.] Kayhla... won? She did indeed. * Kahlya rubs her ears and sighs. "You'll have to tell me later..." She walks out weakly towards the door, hoping her hearing comes back soon. Stupid loud explosions. I'll look forward to your performance next round. Like I said, don't understimate. * Ren spot-teleports over to the TV, and snatches the entire plate of fish off of that. "Luckyyyyy." [Medical crews help Vega in a bit.] Yup! Perserverance. And magic! Although, it looks like Kahlya's deaf. Hopefully it's temporary, or else fixable via magic. * Ren 'ports back away from the TV, fish in hand. * Ren eats fish. :3 * Miles quirks his head. "Should I get Kahlya out of there?" Never a healer around when you need one. Says who! You can? Then get too it. ... Duuuuh. Go right ahead, Miles. * Miles vanishes quickly. * Miles reappears with Kahlya next to him, although she may be a bit squeemish. * Ren waves at Kayhla. He's very catty looking, and he has fish, and he's purring. Hey Kahlya, Congrats on your win. * Kahlya looks around and then half-shoves Miles away, shaking her head. "You...you worry too much...I'll...I'll be fine.." She lets out a weak cough. "Just some bruises." * Kahlya doesn't look at Tim as he talks. She doesn't even seem to hear him yet. * Miles looks fairly worried anyways, dammit. * Tim stands up and puts his bowl down before walking over to the buffet and pouring a glass of water. She can't hear you, Tim. Miles, can you fix her hearing? The rest will heal naturally. * Miles nods and pulls out that little ball of force and focuses for a few moments, the magical energy building up. Kahlya feels a cool rush of water over her skin, even though no water is actually present. Her hearing also gets good enough to actually HEAR us, and most of the damage repairs itself as well. Miles looks a bit worn from doing this, though. Kahlya? * Kahlya looks herself over and blinks, then over at Miles, hmmphing and pulling herself up with a fist on her hips. "Silly kid. I told you I'd be fine..." She shakes her head and sighs, snapping her fingers, creating bandages in midair and starting to put them on the rest of her wounds as she half turns to Red. "Yeah?" * Tim holds the glass of real water out to Kahlya, "Here, and congrats." * Kahlya grins and takes the water. "Was there any doubt?" * Tim notes just a little too late that Kahlya's hands are now full. * Miles slumps back and sits down on his butt. He smiles at Kahlya. Ah. So you can hear again. *grin* Good job on the fight. (One handed with the bandages, so she can take water.) Well there were a few moments, but you pulled through. It was fun...she did better than expected. * Kahlya looks around. "Now where's SMEE?" * Ren smiles at Kayhla. "Didn't think you'd win." Nobody here but us sorta sabbers. Oh pfft. Honestly... * Warlow walks in on the better than expected line. Breaker is apparently busy elsewhere. Smee? * Kahlya glances at Warlow and grins, jumping up and down like a little girl as she runs up to her. "Oh wasn't it just so exciting?! I love it!" And I was worried? Don't friends get worried when others are in trouble? * Miles yipes at Warlow and ports near Red. That's fairly common, ye-- oh, really now, Miles. * Ren blinks at Warlow, then grabs the second plate of fish, and 'ports off. * Warlow looks bemused at that. She notices Miles and frowns slightly at his display but let's it go. She hands Kahyla a cell phone. "Colonel Vega. She came too in the ambluence." * Kahlya blinks at the phone, then picks it up hesitantly. "Um...hello?" * Tim grins at Kahlya, "Send her my regrets." * Warlow then chuckles softly as she walks off, leaving poor Miles in peace. "Leave the cell in the room." * Red puts a reassuring hand on Miles' shoulder, tho. ~Wanted to say.. congratulations. I'd prefer in person, but... don't quite have the strength at the moment.~ ~being phone here) * Kahlya blinks again at that. "Oh, it's nothing really. I mean...you being really acrobatic and all...I'm sure you'll be back in action in no time. Sorry about the frostbite." * Miles relaxes visably as Warlow leaves the room. * Vega chuckles slightly and coughs. ~I've had worse.~ "Yeaaaaah...I could have given worse but...well..." She pouts suddenly. "Hey watch it with those grenades though. You could hurt someone's lungs with that." * Tim walks back to the couch and picks up his popcorn again. They do have warning labels on them, you know. * Vega coughs again. ~Noted. Well, good bye, good luck in future rounds.~ Yeah. Bye to you too. You rest yourself up! [Vega hangs up, apparently content to do just that.] * Kahlya clicks off the phone. And looks at it. "She didn't have to call." She was feeling nice? But she did. Perhaps she's not so bad as Marguerite says. Good an' honerable warrior type I guess. * Kahlya shrugs. "Silly." She sets down the phone. (In fairness to Marguerite, she does definately have a stick up her ass. :P) ( Heh. Well, Red doesn't actually know her, so. ;P ) Well if SMEE isn't here, I gotta go find them... Whatever for? * Kahlya pouts and looks at Red accusatorily. "I have my reasons." * Miles blinks and whispers to Red. * Red raises an eyebrow. "I never said you didn't. And SMEE is one of the organizations in the tournament, Miles." * Miles makes an 'o' with his mouth. "Oooh." * Kahlya looks over Red slowly and a small smile creeps over her lips. "Well, it's personal business. But I understand your curiousity." Regardless, I'm going to see if I can find them.. Good luck! * Kahlya waves and heads off, giving an extra smile to Miles. "Thanks for the help! Good luck on your matches!" She bounds out. * Tim nods, "See ya!" Take care, Kahlya. * Red waits for Kahlya to be safely out of earshot before explaining, "They're a group of magic fanboys, basically." Why would someone be a magic fanboy? ... That could get messey. Yes, it could. And magic is a wonderful thing, Miles. I personally hope to find time to learn some eventually. Mind, I don't plan to be as obsessive over it as SMEE members would seem to be. Anno, I could teach you some? But it took a long time before I learned my first spells... Thank you, Miles. I just might take you up on that. ( The first 100 years will go by just like that though! You'll see.) (Hehe. ^^; The problem with having a timeless spirit as your teacher.) I think I'm going to go find something to do until the next fight. Liiiike? * Red shrugs. "I don't know. I could go practice. Or we could go visit your place, Miles." Going to my place would take a while though. I don't have a portal near here set up... Have one near the rig? * Miles shakes his head. "Either near London or in Japan." ^^; A bit out of my reach then, sorry. [Session end!]
