OOC: I was thinking of a swarm of robotic spiders.

OOC: You could do that if you want. The enemy I want to introduce is the strongest type of machine in the Tower, so it could come later anyway.

The Mechanical alpha wolf started to close in on Marth, but it was easily distracted as the blast hit it, it quickly turned around and spotted Megaman. It began to move closer but Marth struck it with a upwards slash, damaging it heavily.

OOC: That sounds interesting Skyhunter. And the robotic clones should be more seperate apart too.

Ooc: Thanks.

"Thanks for your help." Mega Man said. He turned and blasted a wolf coming behind him.

The voice of the Tower spoke again.

"WHAT COULD YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH FROM THIS?"

"Well, one less psychotic idiot trying to ruin the universe for everyone..." Shaydes murmured. She had no real intention to accomplish anything; she was simply upholding her oath to vanquish evil, in hopes of making amends for her past...




Kate Endetta, AKA "Shaydes" was a notorious criminal who spent her days roaming the streets on the run from the law, shooting up anyone and anything she felt, embezzling money, prostituting herself, it was great. But she always felt that there was something missing from her life of chaos, and that's when the universe threw her a curve ball with the birth of her son. She discovered the joys of parenthood, and in time, came to look at things in a whole new light. This brief time of happiness came to an end though, when her son came down with the zombie virus. She desperately searched the land for a cure, but her hunt served fruitless, and by the time she got back to her son, it was too late. He had entered the incurable stages of the disease. He had to be put down. It was the hardest thing she had ever done. This tragedy paved the road to a new life, and from then on, she sought to redeem herself for her actions... no matter the cost.

*Link kicked away another wolf*

Link: Is there like a machine spitting these out?

[OOC: Sorry about not posting for a few days. Currently in the process of moving house. (We've moved house, but not properly yet.) Anything that's happened in this that I need to catch up on?]

OOC: Basically a lot of the characters are in Metalliform's Tower now.

Fluttershy could start to make out the base of the tower clearly after her fifteen minute walk, her hooves aching from a combination of weak limbs and a long walk.

She heaved a sigh when she saw the tower after passing through the overgrown underbrush.

'Seems no matter where I go, evil is there before me' a tear fell from one of her eyes.

Reluctantly, she made her way to the tower.

The interior of the Tower shook as it persisted in its activity, continuing to reshape itself.

OOC: The Tower is capable of quickly changing its interior layout.

*Link stumbled forward*

Link: What's going on!?

Shaydes whipped around a few times.

"What the... is this thing moving?"

"I-Is it just me or is this tower shapeshifting!?" Roy said, quite confused.
"It is by the looks of it." Ike said, being cautious as the tower shapeshifted.

As the tower began to shift, The robotic wolves went away, as if they where called back. "What in the world?!" Marth said in shock as this began to occur

"Wh-whats going on?!" Pit said, quite suprised by the tower's sudden changes.

"The tower's been known to change its shape," Phantom said.

"Thats pretty amazing..." Roy said, amaized by the technology.
"You do realize you just complemented enemy technology?" Ike said to Roy.
"Does it really matter?" Roy replied to him.

"It's not just the technology. This tower in general just takes logic and stomps on it. Hard."

"You just called logic technology!" Roy said and laughed a little at Ike.
"Again, that was pointless and in no way funny." Ike said, a little annoyed with Roy.

OOC: Hey Skyhunter, are we going to be using a swarm of robotic spiders or something here?

A loud skittering noise could be heard, seemingly coming from the walls. It continued for about a minute before a massive swarm of robotic arachnids began pouring into the hallways, heading straight for Shaydes' group.

She was mortified. "Spiders... why did it have to be spiders..." she whispered in horror.

Phantom quickly reacted by firing a bolt of red lightning into the midst of the swarm. It wouldn't destroy them all, but it would get a good number of them.

Roy charged up his sword with flames, slashing it through the air, resulting in some of the flames burning some spiders.
Ike also charged up his sword, slamming it into the ground, causing a shockwave, damaging some more of the spiders.

The swarm took these attacks, but continued to flood after them. All the poor enderwoman could do was fire a few rounds from her rifle, which barely did anything to them.

Phantom cast a different spell this time, which caused the ground just ahead of the spiders to become covered in shadows. This produced a dramatic slowing effect, so while it was not an offensive move per se, it would buy some time.

Roy's attack was just as affective as Shayde's attack, he was almost completely useless in this battle. "Oh come on!" He said , rather annoyed with that he couldn't do that much.
Ike attacked again, "There's a swarm of them!" He said as he defeated more.

Phantom continued with the bolts of lightning.

OOC: I'm going to have Metalliform's counterpart, Magi Mirthkir, appear later. I just can't resist having him in, because I think he should be fun.

The swarm was greatly deterred by the shadow spell, and the lightning had a devastating impact, but the clockwork spiders persisted nevertheless.

"What? Robots?" Aqua focussed after being silent for so long, he fired a sour liquid towords the spiders.

Roy tried his attack again, but like before it only killed a few of the mechanical spiders.

"Maby we need to make a chain?" Shikari suggested. "If we do that they'll get hit in one time!"

"How do you think that would work?" Ike asked, questioning Aqua.

Cadence was broken out of her fearful state by a sudden... presence. It felt like a pony, but it wasn't. It was so confusing to her that she rose to her hooves and started walking to the wreckage, her legs shaking from her recent shock.



Fluttershy arrived at the tower, it's metallic structure intrigued her. How did it get here? Who built it? Is Metalliform related to it being here? Those questions raced through her head as she found the entrance, peering into the room.

Slowly and carefully walking inside, she kept an eye out for anything that could harm her.

She could see anyone, or pony. So she did the only thing that came to her mind at the time.

"Hello? Is anypony there?" she inquired, it echoed down what appeared to be a shifting hall.


[OOC: Introducing a new character soon.]

"How do you think that would work?" Ike asked, questioning Aqua.

"Well, we can connect them using my sticky liquid, then guide Lighting's jolt's trough it..." Aqua suggested.

"It might work," Phantom said, "but it'd have to be quick."

OOC: Unsure if anyone should hear Fluttershy.

Roy nodded "Would affect more too."
"Its worth the try." Ike added.

"Ok lets do this" Aqua spitted his liquids all over the robots

The two swordsmen attacked as asked, their attacks combining as they attacked.

The spiders were trapped in the liquid, helplessly writhing around.

Phantom added another red lightning bolt to the attacks.

Fluttershy took a deep breath and asked her question a little louder, almost shouting.

"Hello? Is there anypony in here?" she called out again, her voice echoed down the hall.

As Pit and his small group where walking, he heard a voice, quickly following it, and leaving his group when doing so, he found a pony. "What are you doing here?"

The arachnid's circuits were fried by the arc of lightning. The swarm was no more.

Phantom flicked his fingers, causing the area of shadowy ground to dissipate, so that they could pass without it hindering them.

"That was pretty well managed."

To say Fluttershy was annoyed would be an understatement, she screamed into the hall with fury.

"I've had just about enough now. Show. Your. Selves. NOW!" she bellowed, making her own eardrums ache with a throb.

She still couldn't see anyone.

"Well..." Aqua said as the otther two shrugged

"I've had just about enough now. Show. Your. Selves. NOW!" she bellowed, making her own eardrums ache with a throb.

With the handicap on her sanity gone, Shaydes let out a shaky breath. She could clearly hear a feminine voice coming down the hallway; it didn't seem mechanical at all, so she figured the owner could be trusted. "I'd best go investigate that voice" she stated to Phantom, slowly rising to her feet from her fetal position, and teleported in that general direction.

She was met by a small, butter-yellow pegasus she didn't recognize, and was quick to shield her eyes should the equine accidentally make contact with them. "And who might you be?" she asked.

Pit walked closer to where the voice was coming from, obviously she didnt hear him. He was soon in her view. "Who`s this?" he asked curiously.

OOC: Soon i`m going to bring in a couple more mechaincal clones, anyone offer to help RP some of them?

Fluttershy was taken aback for a few seconds by the unexpected... creature in front of her, but then pressed on her own questions with a strong tone of authority. Surprising herself, only a bit.

"I'm asking the questions here. What are you? Who are you? Who does this tower belong to?" 'and why am I talking like this?' she would have added, but restrained herself.





Something activated in the wreckage of the spacecraft, something that sent the warning sirens in Cadence's mind screeching. She tripped over in panic and hastily tried to get back onto her hooves.

"No, not another machine. No. No. No no no no!" she chanted, her fear of technology rather rational after Metalliform's visit.





A small mechanical foal had been reactivated, a filly to be precise. How she had made her way onto the ship, the machine had no idea herself.

She looked up, or tried to. The wreckage would have crushed her if she was an organic being, but the metals that she was built from were strong enough to take the pressure.

"Great, I fall asleep in the middle of a talk with my sister... then I wake up in a cold box?" her slightly mechanical voice rang out. She did not notice that tone though, she thought she was just like any other foal her age, as did the rest of Equestria. The filly in question thought she still was in Equestria.

This filly was sure in for a shock.

[OOC: Basically. It's Sweetie Bot, my own version of that character at least. She's being and designed in a way that can pass her as a normal pony flawlessly. Her voice being the only thing giving that away. However, if she was to truly get hurt, like a deep cut or something, she'd find out.]

"I`m Pit,I`m an angel and if i`m not sure exactally who`s tower this is." The angel boy replied to Fluttershy.

With her eyes shut, Shaydes leaned against a wall, exhaled deeply, and began in a gentle, delicate voice.

"Most call me Shaydes, I am what is known as an enderman... or rather an enderwoman in my case... Don't be deceived by my appearance, I am no enemy. This tower belongs to a malicious entity known as Metalliform; I am here to shut this establishment down in hopes that it will lead to his downfall..."

Another deep breath, followed by a calm, soothing inflection. "And now, again I ask: who might you be?"
