Brigginms dismissed Gary after he finished his testimony and called up the next defendant " state your name an occupation" He said
_ Stripetail focused " I will now begin to create minions to send into battle..this will consume a great deal of energy, but it must be done, our forces are far too few at present..

"I will attempt to assist," Haresh said. He then turned to the mechanics. "Can you get some scrap metal?" he asked.

Several mechanics wheeled over a wooden crate that was filled with damaged armor plate from the vehicles.

Haresh picked up one of the plates and tossed it on the ground. He closed his eyes and started focusing.

-------------------------

The Goat looked at his PDA. "We lost about 10,000 soldiers assaulting this entire city. But considering that the city's defensive force consisted of roughly 40,000 to 50,000 troops I am surprised that we did not lose more," he said.

--------------------------

Lloyd Bycroft took the stand. "My name is Lloyd Bycroft. I too work as an ammunition handler," he said calmly.

Brooklyn walked over to get some more ammo. He picked up some small spheres with lettering on them. "What are these?" He asked.

Jason looked over, "Ah, forgot about those. Some of them effect a group or a single person so they experience things as if they are inside an Ed Wood movie, with the folks in the movie and the movie being partially interactive. Some others are the same but it's a random MST3K episode where the person is in the place of Joel or Mike. Can be pretty useful on the battlefield." Jason said.

"I can imagine. You can't fight or shoot if all of you experience yourself in a movie instead of where you really are." Brooklyn said. "How long do the effects last?"

"From the time it takes for the movie, or mst3k episode starts it's time for the credits to roll."

Rime held up a white phosphorous grenade. "I like these better. It's kinda hard to fight when you're on fire," he said.

Ms. Swimmer was carrying some Great Valley weapons throught the portal. She placed the crate next to the crate of scrap metal.

Zachary picked up a javelin. "You know if we were charge the stone heads, we may be able to turn these into something like a shaped charge warhead like those on the RPG-7 rockets," he said.

"One problem, we need metal to make shaped charges," Strur said.

Zachary pointed to a crate full of scrap metal.

Stripetail gestured and a large mist began to fill the room. the metal began to shake then suddenly flew in the air where it began to be shaped into a form of a soldier as the magic continued to progress , spirits begab to come out of the mists, their eyes glowing in various colors. " Arm the minions as you can " stripetail said. He glanced briefly at the grenade Rime was holding " use whatever you can, now is not the time for holding back.."
-
So we are down to somewhere between 20 and 25 thousand then.. How many prisoners did we take upon over-running the city? them out into battle..." Chong replied..
Scooby and Dixie stared at the number of sprits Stripetail was summoning, there were now two rows of them... " Just be careful stripetail, we don't want you draining yourself too low" she said..
_ Spyro asnd Cynder glanced at each other as the building came into vieew .. ' i guess thats the one " Cynder said.. "Lets hope we can hold this area...

Nick22 · **Reply #7345 on:** July 28, 2010, 06:44:16 PM

" Mr Bycroft, how long were you at the position, before the four of you attempted to desert your posts? Lona asked.. "What was your reasoning for attempting to leave?"

Serris · **Reply #7346 on:** July 28, 2010, 07:50:15 PM

Haresh finished his first metal trooper. Some mechanics helped bolted a spare .50 caliber machine gun to it.

Setsuna was helping Haresh so his work could go faster. She gulped down a mana potion as she focused on a pile of scrap metal gradually taking a humanoid form.

Rime nodded and went into the Inglorious Hotel via the magic door. A few minutes later, he returned with a crate full of white phosphorous grenades.

----------------------

The Goat scratched his head. "We took about 3,000 prisoner. Apparently most chose to fight to the death rather than surrender. We had them staff a factory to produce metal troopers but a missile strike wiped it out," he said.

----------------------

"We had been assigned to our positions about two weeks ago when the previous workers were killed by enemy fire. As for why we wanted to leave, hello, you try sticking around when you see your best friend's arm lying at your feet!" Mark replied.

"Mark, I had a bomb implanted inside me and I was nearly killed by Dragonstorm forces. I stayed to fight," Darren replied.

James, Darren and Gustave were serving as jurors.

(OOC - I assume the war has been going on for at least 4 weeks?)

' great, so they're all dead.. so much for that plan.. Just get the troops over there as soon as possible" Chong replied
_ i'll be fine dixie..." Stripetail replied " i'll start off with creating 100, then I'll add on as need be.. Just get ready to go back out...

Sara was with Tarrax, where ever he was.

Sara's uncle started working on the metal soldiers. He worked on altering the molecular structure of the metal to make it a more tough and resilient to damage. He also altered a part of the forearm area so each soldier would have large retractable claws like Wolverine (from the x-men comics) has. So if they run out of ammo or are forced into melee combat they'll have effective melee weapons with edges a few molecules thick.

Nick22 · **Reply #7349 on:** July 28, 2010, 10:11:07 PM

Tarrax flew into the air and headed back towards the western part of town...
Gabumon, Tentomon and others prepared to go back into battle

Serris · **Reply #7350 on:** July 29, 2010, 01:30:09 AM

Ms. Swimmer had a spare messenger bag containing several charged stones dangling across her shoulder.

The Pelvanida group had finished reloading their weapons.

"We're ready," Dr. Zanasiu said.

"Are the vehicles ready for combat?" Strut asked.

A nearby Doberman mechanic nodded. "Armor has been replaced and ammunition is loaded," she said.

"Let's rock!" Rime said, flipping down the visor on his helmet.

Nick22 · **Reply #7351 on:** July 29, 2010, 10:45:03 AM

(yes it has been going on for a month..)

Nani nodded as stitch climbed back on the car. SCooby and Dixie climbed into the mystery Machine As stripetail finished creating the minions. Stripetail took a deep breath, and headed over towards the enterance " Good luck to all of you, be safe"
genki grinned as he climbed back in. " Lets get back in the game!"

"Let's get back to defeating them." Jason said waving to his friends to follow him.

"The sooner we do the sooner everyone can rest." Odysseus said.

"I'll just be glad once this is all over." Brooklyn said.

Jason put away his pocket holo emitter and went into his tardis followed by some others of his friends. He pulled up and looked over the readout on the display and set to work quickly setting some coordinates for the destination.

-------

Raphael was making sure his weapons were in full working order and the powders and such he had remixed were ready to use.

---

"I'm just glad my eyes had a chance to rest. And that my good friend here had a case of visine." The Siberian husky said, patting the shoulder of the English sheepdog.

--

"Gosh." Pete said, from where he was.

Nick22 · **Reply #7353 on:** July 29, 2010, 06:20:38 PM

Death is part of war, always has been' Briggins replied " i'm old enough to remember stories of the Second World War. Millions died in that war, Mr Bycroft, MILLIONS. So lets try and keep some perspectoive here. While we do sympathize that you have endured a traumatic experience, that is nothing compared to what Dragonstorm will do to all of us, if they prevail. Those of us they don't kill, will be little better than slaves. Do you have family, MR Bycroft?

Serris · **Reply #7354 on:** July 29, 2010, 10:19:13 PM

Lloyd nodded. "My son who is currently serving in the military. He was cremated a only a week ago when his Humvee ran over an anti-tank mine," he said with tears in his eyes. "I have a wife and two young children back home in Iselia."

-----------------------------

The Pelvanida group donned their protective suits and or jewelery and climbed into the armored truck. The Bull trucker started the engine and pulled out of the garage. Several APCs and Humvees followed him. The area outside the garage was heavily cratered and littered with bodies.

Several squadrons of metallic soldiers and summoned spirit minions were approaching in the distance. The pall of mustard gas hung in the air.

"Get ready for battle!" the trucker shouted into his radio.

-----------------------------

The helicopter carrying Ceela's group landed at the building (which used to be a convention center) in the western part of Neptune City.

"We're here," Ceela said, readying her bow.

"And so is the enemy!" Dirk shouted. Several armored vehicles and metallic soldiers were visible in the distance and they were heading for the building.

Nick22 · **Reply #7355 on:** July 29, 2010, 10:24:22 PM

I'm sorry to here that. How far is Iselia from here " Briggins asked. " your son did not die in vain , i assure you...
_ Tarrax spoke " Get inside the building! I'll hold them off" He said releasing a torrent of fire that created a ring arpund the area. theheat was so intense , enemy melta;l soldiers began to netal as they reteated back from the flames.. Spyro and Cynder added their own attacks..

Serris · **Reply #7356 on:** July 29, 2010, 10:31:35 PM

A passing Sang-Heili helicopter gunship dropped several incendiary bombs on the metal soldiers. The heat from the bombs was so intense that they either melted or the ammunition ignited, destroying them.

Ceela and Dirk led the archers and volunteers inside the building.

The building itself was in fairly good shape but it was almost entirely glass faced.

"S---!" Dirk shouted. "We've got no cover! It's like we're in a shooting gallery!"

"Head further in!" Ceela ordered.

Nick22 · **Reply #7357 on:** July 29, 2010, 10:40:08 PM

AGumon and Agumina Climbed out oof the Mystery Machibe and began shotting peppper breath fireballs at the enemy. Tigeress and tigress blasted away with blizzard attacks their arm wasn't very good, but that was because they were rnning.. Inside the conventions center there were a number of stairs " We've got the lower level' Tiger Called out
_ Fine! Agiumon called out, we;ve go the upper left.. Gabumon and Matt hurried right behind them " If this place didn't have so many blasted windows " Martt muttered.

The tardis appeared on or in the west side of town. Jason was the first out of the tardis. He had morphed into the red zeo ranger and had combined the sword and pistol into a more powerful combined weapon.

Guilmon exited next and used the opportunity digivolve first to his growlmon then to his wargrowlmon forms. The others came out of the tardis to give suppressant cover fire along with Jason so he'd not be an easy target as he digivolved through the steps to get to his wargrowlmon forms. Sara joining in by putting up a curtain of flames to help with the shielding once she saw what Guilmon was starting to digivolve.

Nick22 · **Reply #7359 on:** July 29, 2010, 11:56:49 PM

Good to see you made it my dear" Tarrax said, pausing to take a short breather
_ It was then a loud rumble shook the calicoo, Gadzuki looked at Pete then grinned as Godzilla mpoked his head out of them water
Minya and Jr smiled as well. Godzilla glanced at them then at the battle going on in the distance gadzuki made his usual sounds, and godzilla roaed in reply and started headed towards the battle
