The power of flight had already been used up, and it would be a good while until he would be able to use it again. Pit was startled as he was grabbed and taken away. He struggled to get free.
"PIT!" Ike shouted, trying to chase SandStrike. Marth quickly followed.

"I'm taking you to my MASTER ha...ha...haahaahooo!"

Pit still couldn't get free, and the poor angel boy was very worried. However, his two friends still followed, trying to keep up.

"I wonder what Emerald is about to do with you, heeeeeheeheeeee"

"L-Let me go!" Pit shouted, trying to get free.

"No, now quit your wining or I'll make you shut up!"

Pit quickly stopped talking. He frowned, he was completely defenseless and had no where to run. He couldn't get away.

Shikari was flying trought the sky, wne she suddenly bumbed right into Sand Strike...
"What he?" Sand Strike yelped, nearly losing her hold of Pit
"....."Shikari didnt say a word


[ooc: le lazt pust for nuw]

Pit had gained a little hope when SandStrike almost dropped him, but it was quickly lost as she grabbed him again.

[OOC: one last post]


Shikari looked to Pit
"And who's this little angel? Looks like a perfect victem to me"
"V-virus? Turned, Evil???" Sand Strike seemed confused

"Wh-What?!" Pit said, very confused at the moment.

"What..."

Foxtail was appalled; the whole reason he was against the Strikers to begin with was their plot to kill Shikari. And she had joined them...

A feral growl worked it way out of his throat as his pelt darkened. He didn't care that it was against his training; things had gone too far for him. His claws sharpened and eyes emptied, his voice adopted a new tone as well: a creepy, almost demonic voice with a slight hiss. The sky reddened and a black mist enveloped him as the transformation completed.

"You see, I don't take kindly to betrayal. In my opinion, it is the worst crime one could commit. Now it's time to pay for your sins!"

OOC: Guess I'll post this. Don't have much else.

Seeing a yellow equine, the machine moved in that direction. It had an emblem engraved on it: a crown with a amethyst in the center. The machine also had the letters S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L. on its side; apparently its name.

________

Power was being restored to Metalliform's Tower. Soon it would be fully operational again, with all damage repaired, despite the efforts of Link and company.

OOC: I want to continue with this after Metalliform is 'defeated'. Hopefully that won't be much longer.

*Gallade threw a focus blast at Sand Strike in attempt to make her drop Pit*

Awestruck, Lotus warily approached the sentinel. Not sure if it was friend or foe, she spoke to it, stammering, ready to dart away if necessary.

"Um... hi? Wh-what are you? Who do you work for?"

"Peace," the machine responded. "I am called the Sentinel, a machine of the Amethyst Crown. We mean no harm."

OOC: The Amethyst Crown is a faction. Lord Amethyst is... related to it.

"Okay... well, we've got sort of a problem going on. See, there's this other guy that calls himself Metalliform- big metal alicorn, can't miss 'im -and he's trying to wipe out all life, starting here. Do you think you could help us out?"

"Metalliform Mirthkir. Yes, we're aware of him. We definitely aim to help. But he is not an easy foe, by any means."

"Thank you."

She glaces up at the scarlet red sky and tsks, rolling her eyes.

"And I think my boyfriend might be throwing another of his hissy fits. Just ignore him, he wouldn't hurt a fly."

OOC: I'm running out of things to write here.

OOC: I would say to wait for icedragon to post at this point, but I don't know if he has anything.

Aqua Strike who flew behind Emerald reacted to the focus blast, sending a blast of water to the attack, meanwhile
Shikari had taken a dagger and was struggeling with Sand Strike
the Struggle made Sand drop pit, Pit landed on Shikari and both where blasting down


and again:

SMACK!

Pit tried to make the fall as soft as possible, By spreading out his wings, but it was only effective a little bit, the fall still hurt.

The enraged fox dived to the surface after the two, completely disregarding Pit and advancing on Shikari. His dead eyes seemed to hold the essence of fury, and he licked his chops out of lust for blood...

"Metalliform Mirthkir. Yes, we're aware of him. We definitely aim to help. But he is not an easy foe, by any means."

Fluttershy was confused, she had never heard of Metalliform Mirthkir, or the Amethyst Crown.

Her curiosity brought her out of mourning, she'd have plenty of time for that later. Right now, something was happening and she needed to end it, or help end it at least.

"I'm sorry? Wipe out all life? Am I the only one who finds that crazy?" she questioned, wiping the tears from her eyes with her hooves. She sat down and waited for an answer.

"What could you possibly gain from reducing the universe to ash?" She added.


She took a moment attempt to comprehend the motives of Metalliform.
"I don't get it." Fluttershy added.

"Great.... Next time look where you are" Emerald hissed towards Sand, with seemed too confuzzled to even think about it
"Why? Is? Is she evil??"
Aqua and Lighting groaned as if Sand just made the worst question ever, thier reaction was clear to Sand


"Auch..... now my poor back hurts, thanks stupid angel!" Shikari stood up, but her wings didn't look good, in fact, they looked broken

"Ugh...Its not my fault you friend up there took off with me!" Pit said to Shikari in an angry tone. He went to get up but his leg really hurt. He fell back down. "Argh, my leg!"

"So, we have the same trouble, than I think fighting has no use, broken leg against broken wing is unfair"
Shikari stood up
"So....My excuse me, what is your name?"
Shikari of course had her scarf before her mouth, so obviously Pit could not see the smile Shikari had.

Pit looked at Shikari "I'm Pit.." He replied.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what happend to me..."

"No, you're not the only one," the Sentinel responded. "We don't really get it either, it doesn't make any logical sense. But it seems Metalliform just has a strange sense of malice towards every creature that has ever existed, and thus wants to kill them all. Then again though, it seems like Mirthkir is practically impossible to comprehend in general."

"I'm sorry, I don't know what happend to me..."

Foxtail seemed to "dash" to Shikari's position, his face held uncomfortably close to hers. His eyes narrowed and an uninviting scowl was etched across his muzzle.

"You can't fool me, traitor. You know what you did, as do I, and I am not pleased one bit. After all we've done for you, this is how you repay us?"

A menacing grin spread across his face, exposing his bloody fangs.

"Well, I think it's only appropriate that I return the favor."

Mercilessly, his claws raked across her face and he reared up for another attack.

OOC: Just changing my avatar for Halloween.

OOC: Oh, Skyhunter, a while back you said you'd probably drop the avatar aspect after we get farther in. Still gonna do that?

OOC: Yeah, I'm still doing that. And I think we're far enough now.

*Link, Gallade, and Wolverine ran up to Shikari and Pit*

Link: Pit are you alright?

"I-i think i may have broken my leg, it really hurts..." Pit said, and soon after Ike and Marth found them.
"What happened?!?" Marth said, and Ike ran over to Pit to help him up.

Link: Did you at least get your bow back? And your sword?

Link: Did you at least get your bow back? And your sword?

"N-No.." Pit said, rather disappointed.

"So... how are we supposed to stop it?" Fluttershy asked, she wanted to know mow. Needed to know more.

"Everything has a weakness, that's what I was shown. Surely this Metalliform has one..." she said with steel in her voice. She could feel anger swell up inside of her. Her eyes adopted red irises and a soft glare, but she quickly dispelled that anger in favor of a calm and collected mind.

Anger filled minds make terrible planners after all.

OOC: Just changing my avatar for Halloween.

"N..n..no! its not me! believe me! Its Emerald!"
Shikari held her dagger up, trying to protect herself, but she couldn't, Foxtail had cut one of her eyes open, it was tearing with blood... rather too much...
She fainted... her dagger rolled out of her hand

Emerald saw it happening from a distand
"They seem to fall for a stupid illusion like that? Now Shikari, how do you feel like betraying the rest?"
Shikari struggled in Emerald's hands
"Let me go! Let me fix it, I dont deserve to let a illusion do that!"
"We work with illusions, and its my life! now SHUT UP!"
hoever, Emerald's scream was a bit too loud
the group beneath them could hear her
Quickly, Emerald ran away, so nobody could grab her
but she left Shikari...


ooc: I WAS about to kill Shikari, but....
its confusing is it?

OOC: Well I am a little confused, but...

The error of his ways sank in, and Foxtail discarded his dark form. He knew he'd never be able to forgive himself for what he did. Whimpering heavily, he cuddled against Shikari as he felt the life forces slowly leave her body...

ooc: ah, let me explain
That Shikari is an illusion, its fake, just like the fake bow, remember?

"Fox! over here! go away there its a trap!"
Shikari shouted as loud as she could

"It typically takes a lot of firepower to stop him," the machine responded. "If he does have a particular weakness, then we aren't sure what it is yet."

"Weakness... logical ambitions?" Fluttershy snickered for a second before returning to her emotionless state.

"Firepower eh? My companion was the expert on stuff like that.... now she's dead...." Fluttershy trailed off, reducing herself to muttering under her own breath.

"Oh by Celestia's flaming forehoof, what am I going to do now." she despaired.

OOC: Wondering when Cadence and Treetop are gonna show up at the crash site. I want to have Metalliform show up a bit after they do.

ooc: I want to jump in. Maybe...to stop Metalliform?

OOC: Sure, but I'd like to let Metalliform appear at the crash site first.

ooc: Okay.

Treetop led Candence to the crash sight, where he met back up with Lotus.

"Hey Treetop, took you long enough."
"Yeah, sorry. I was having some technical issues..."

She just waved it aside and introduced him to the Sentinel. "So, this guy came to help fight Metalliform, and I met one of the passengers of that ship. The other didn't make it though..."
"Oh, that's sad. But regardless, it's great that we a have a few new allies. We'll be a bit more prepared for Metalliform's next attack... I doubt he'll surrender any time soon."



At the sound of the real Shikari's voice, the distraught fox's ears perked up like he heard bacon being cooked. With a new glimmer of hope shining within, he abandoned the decoy and ran in the direction of her voice.
