2500 thats a lot " Spyro replied his voice brightening. ' The enemy has over 20000" the soldier replied staring glumly ahead " Names Wiggins.
_ I'm Spyro and this is my mate Cynder. thats Hunter' Spyro sais offering his claw.
Bulk and Skull took a seat at a nearby tablre and quickly began to eat the food set in front of them.
Ri ridn't reither.. rhat rout rou rirls?
A little " tigress admitted I've been feeling better the last few days actually..
_ Good, you're eating normal foods again? Tiger said giving her a glance that spoke of his uncertainty.

A line of glowing string appeared next to Sara and quickly widened to a glowing doorway through which Sara's uncle appeared.

"You mentioned having an idea?" He said to her.

Sara nodded, "I was thinking maybe a tornado with some lightning in it could pick up some of the enemy forces and drop them way out at sea." Sara said.

"Sounds like an idea. We'd have to be sure to control it. Once it's created you can focus on maintaining it and I'll steer it and control the other stuff like the funnel." He said.

"ok." Sara said.

"Let's go to where I was, some folks are keeping the area secure and it is pretty hidden." Sara's uncle said before he stepped back through the glowing doorway. Sara followed soon after. Once she was through he uncle grasp the glowing string, one end in each hand and had the magc effect turn off and he put the string away. Only good for short or medium distances but a handy way to travel and faster then even flying or walking.

A deafening explosion was heard in the convention center as a dying soldier managed to detonate the explosive charge that he strapped to a teleporter.

Several mechanics were trying to repair the damaged machines but they

The soldiers and the few grunts that teleported through fought ferociously

Two nearly visible blades of air from a Golbat knocked one of the Sang-Heili troopers back. The Gobalt literally exploded as another trooper shot it.

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

The rest of the Pelvanida group arrived and fetched breakfast.

"So, Bulk, Skull have you been working well on the ammunition carrying and repairs?" Rime asked. He was wearing his armored vest and helmet. His pistol, combat knife and sniper rifle were attached to him as well.

Nick22 · **Reply #7483 on:** September 14, 2010, 11:15:28 PM

yeah, well we're doing ok, its a lot of rounds i've been holding' Bulk said " at this rate Bulky, you'll be skinny when we get back' Skull smirked " Very funny assemply guy Bulk sneered. ' we've also been running errands for Mr stripetail, plants and water and a cake of this or that..

Sara and her uncle got to where the others were. She sent a quick mental message by magic to the others in the area about what they were about to do.

They were in an area with some large debris around, ample places to use for cover. She and her uncle got behind some large debris with Brooklyn and they started to do their spell together, combining some effects into the spell. As they did so the wind calmed where they were but picked up and started to go in a circle around where they were.

Congrats on 23000 Kor)
tarrax received the message and nodded ' Just be careful you two" He replied 'i'm currently having breakfast with the others in our group..
- Cynder finished hervfpooods and headed up to get somemmore. Dixie was in line ahead of her " you guys sleep well last night? Dixiwe asked while piling on some fruit " Cynder shrugged ' it waass alright. I got aboiout six hours of sleep give ioor take..

The wind picked up and continued to swirl around in a circle. The wind started to lift upward as it shaped into a funnel shape, with random lightning appearing at various spots in the funnel. The bottom lifted up off the ground and moved toward a nearby group of enemy forces. It touched down and grasp at them.

Sara's uncle cast an spell so he created an invisible ball the size of a tennis ball with the image of his eye on one side. This he had go into the air so he could more easily see the tornado to control it while he remained behind cover.

Sara focused on maintaining the spell.

Stripetail finished eating anmd had the remaining SPVDF troops standin rows ' " Geneltemen I'm sending you back to the iNglorious Hotel to help fend off the attack. while there are less than 100 of you left, you can still make a difference, as Briggins has indicated to me they are hard prsessed at the hotel right now Good luck to allof you, hopefully we will meet again..'
_ i;'ll be sure to give Briggins your regards' Captain Milos said standing in the front line "
-- TelEPORtius!" Stripetail commanded , and in a twinkling, the group vanished
- A few secionds later they appeared in the lobby of the hotel
-
Spread out men, to defemsive positiomns' Milos snapped
- Excellebnt, we've got some reinforcements' Briggins said coming down the stairs, he had been checking on second floor defenses
- Wizard sends his regards
We goit 23500 in reinforcements in Neptune City. unfortunate that only brings our forces there to be 3000, we're probably outnumbers 8-1' Milos said
- How many of your Defense force are left? Briggins asked
- LKless than 100.. ' Briggins sighed, it was better than nothing..

Gallantmon fired off a series of attacks, changing which attack he would attack with. Jason used the opportunity to drink a bit of a healing potion before he put it away and joined in the attack with Guilmon, using some icy wind with hail that was needle sharp. Then he quickly switched to using lightning again.

the storm outside picked up in intensity and was spurred on by saras twister which was growing in intensity and causing the enemy vehicles to shake from the low pressure..
get back screamed a dragonstorm member but it was too late for hikm as he was sucked up into the funnel..

- in town, the battle between dragon ans deimos small force continued ,despite the now driving rain which made visibility virtually nonexistant.

Setsuna cracked her knuckles. "If anyone needs me, I'll be making metal troops," she said, heading to the garage.

"Bulk, why don't you help me salvage some metal for her?" the Bull trucker asked.

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

Mr. Bigmouth stopped firing, seeing as he was unable to see anything. "Briggins! Hold your fire! We can't see anything!" he shouted.

He could hear explosions in the distance as Golden Sun and Silver Moon, which had advanced targeting systems capable of penetrating smoke, rain and fog, attacked the Dragonstorm forces.

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

Deimos reloaded his sniper rifle.

"We can't see anything!" a Human boy shouted.

"They can't see us either," Deimos said.

Several of his troops were busy trying to use the tables as shelter from the driving rain.

Fine lead the way Bulk said heading after him out of the room and towards the garage..
-i'm curious Cynder said giving her friend a look " Did anything happen .. between you and Tigress?' You mean recently dixie asked Why do you ask?""I mean back at the hotel. You were with her for long stretches..."She told me some personal things, that i don't feel free to divulge.. "Did you sleep with her? "Well...no..but we did kiss a bit ' Dixie admitted Cynders frowned. " She's staying with Tiger." dixie said flatly " We're friends, and there's no threat to my relationship with you or scooby.., " Yes but as I recall Scooby said that if he found out about anyone else you were seeing besides him or me, he'd go postal.. " Cynder said, giving a dixie a look. how deep did you kiss her?. just with the tongue and i drew the line at touching my chest.. She wanted to learn from me, she wanted to know how it felt.. now she does.. "Has Agumina asked you to do that too?' Cynder said "No apart from that meeting I haven't talked to her much, i tend to think her feelings for tigress are unrequited '
What does that mean? Cynder asked looking at her plate and the food on it ' In short, she's in love with Tigress but Tigress doesn't feel the same way.' Oh.. Well Dixie, if this going to be a problem .. "
It won't Cynder..Dixie said ' i mean this is an odd topic to be discussing over breakfast, during wartime no less.. I mean i've never asked you if you've been seeing other dragonesses.. " No' Cynder bristled "One, there aren't that many females my age, and two, i don't care for them nearly enough to start about thinking about dating them or making out with them. Just promise me this won't happen again ...oh, because if it does, i'm shooting gobs of poison in your partners eyes as retribution.. I care too much about you to do that to you, them... they're getting the full brunt of my anger.. got it?' Cynder said in a low hiss. Dixie gulped slightly. the look on cynders face said clearly that she wasn't joking.." got it.. now onto other topics if you please..
- Fine everyone, stop firing and reload, if your hungry gran yourself a snack. Stripetail sent us some reinforcements, thee remaining members of the SPVDF.. theres about 100 left.."

Two soldiers passed out armored vests, helmets and haz mat suits for Bulk and Skull to wear.

"Put those on and meet me in the Mako truck," the Bull said, zipping up his protective suit and turning on the airflow.

He then headed to the garage and climbed into the driver's seat. He noticed that the magic crystal air purifiers had been recharged and the armor plates replaced.

Nick22 · **Reply #7493 on:** September 16, 2010, 02:19:19 AM

the two students quickly put on the suits and rusg\hed out tio the trucks " So what exactly do you need us to do/ Skull asked upon entering the truck " you see we haven't done this kind of stuff prior to this war breaking out..
_
Dixie and Cynder switched to less personal conversation, the dragoness was satisfied that her point had been made, and that no real damage had been done to their relationship. " So who do you think the wizard will next pick to join our team? She asked " I have absolutely no idea, i mean ten is a lot to have on a team.. if I had to guess it would be someone who brought something unique to the team. umm.. Stripetail are you going to be adding anyone else? She asked as Stripetail moved over too grab some fruit..
_
The Omnedrin are finished, the Omniderate is not.. a rather odd question dixie considering the circumstances.. After this war is over then I can start looking into that , perhaps..' Stripetail said
_
What exactly do you mean by that?" Cynder asked as Stripetail arched his eyebrows "Now is not the time for such questions " are all of this Omniderate going tpo have partners? Dixie asked ' Possibly, in fact i'd say probably.. now ladies go finish your breakfast..

"Salvage metals. Grab anything made of metal and toss it into the passenger compartment," the trucker said, starting up the engine.

He then pulled out of the garage. Two Humvees - one with a .50 caliber machine gun and the other with an anti-tank missile system - followed him.

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

Mr. Bigmouth headed down to the dining room to grab a bite to eat. Several janitors were carrying out food waste to be burnt in the Great Valley. Some civilian volunteers carried back some fresh fruit and seafood.

the storm outside continued to grow in intensity the magic Sara and her uncle had created had magnified the storm's verocity, the windows were now blowing at near hurricane force.. the windows rattled fr loudly in the hotel, in places where the windows had been damaged the screams of the wind rumbled through the hotel
- The Weather is lending us a hand Briggins said . snacking on some front..
_ Retreat called a rdragonstorrm commander " We can't attack the hotel until this wind dies down " Back tio Surf pOint, on the double..!' the commander knew Chong woluld be furious bbut with the storm approaching hurracane strength, they had no choice..
_ the stirm had not yet reached Surf Point, but it would soon..
_ Oh OK, we've done that before.. salvage stuff that is.. How about heading to the convention Center? Bulk asked..

Serris · **Reply #7496 on:** September 16, 2010, 07:25:09 PM

The trucker received a transmission on his radio. "We are not going near the convention center. Unless you want to enter right into a battle zone," he said.

Suddenly, the truck shuddered as it ran over a small mine. The explosion was stunning but the truck was still able to continue thanks to its heavy armor.

Nick22 · **Reply #7497 on:** September 16, 2010, 07:38:47 PM

well I meant after we retake it that is" Biulk clarified, upon getting him the two of them were thrown against the back of the truck "ow.. Where would you recommenbd we go? Skull asked as they tried to get into comfortyable position
infront of them stood a largely ruined buildings with broken glass and on the ground, and swirls of yes gas hng in the air " Is that stuff.. mustard gas" Bulk turned pale..

Serris · **Reply #7498 on:** September 18, 2010, 02:58:14 AM

The Mako truck turned down a ruined street. The trucker plowed over a mage trying to throw a fireball.

After a few more turns, including getting shot at, they arrived at what appeared to be a trendy fashion shop.

"Here we are," the trucker said.

The two armed Humvees followed closely and a total of eight soldiers, most of them carrying rifles but two carried anti-tank rocket launchers - all clad in body armor and the haz-mat suits. stepped out.

Nick22 · **Reply #7499 on:** September 18, 2010, 02:31:37 PM

So we are going to salvage this place/ Cool. but will we get paid for what we salvage?' Bulk asked
- Most of the things will used to battle.. But if you find anything valuable, you can keep it.. one of the men said to them as they enetered the building..
