"Why'd even bother to trust that blasted robot?" She said as she felt the shock of the wave run through suit and lab. Thankfully, she did know that the super suits could use electro magnetic energy to help power themselves, hence why Serena could get so strong in her suit with just her lightning powers. But still, the surge still partially shorted out some stuff in her lab and gave her quite the painful shock. "If that bucket head wants me to complete the contract, then I guess it's time I should go do that!" She said with an evil laugh as she flew out the window and back to the alleyway.
Back at the alleyway, Yvonne finally caught up to the robots and waved them down. "Hey guys! I'm back!" He said as he ran into the alley, "Boy that Dr Goatmilk person is a really piece of work, isn't she?" Yvonne asked the robots, "Thankfully, I managed to swipe this from her lab when I was there!" He said as he produced a special device and attached it to his wrist. "I have no idea what it does, but it looked cool!" He said as he hit a button on it. Instantly, he was surrounded by a beam of light. The light cleared to reveal himself in a full suit of power armor, helmet and all. "Awesome!" Yvonne said as he looked at himself, "Although i think it's a bit snug in some places to be honest..." He said as he looked at the chest plate and saw that the armor was clearly forged for a girl to wear, humanoid goat or not. "So what are you guys doing out here?" He asked.
Before they could answer, a chill gust of wind blew through the alley as a thick fog rolled in, completely obscuring the robots from view. "Um, Build-a? Yellow robot buddies? Where'd you all go?" Yvonne asked in confusion. Suddenly, a cold, menacing voice spoke out of the fog to only the robots, the mist seemingly dampening any sound or light they tried to produce, "The name's Dr. Goatmilk, not Milkgoat! And you should be treating your new ruler with more respect, unless you want a one way trip to the junkyard..." The voice said, revealing itself to be none other than Dr Goatmilk herself, still in her suit, now crackling with electricity as she caused a wind to blow her hair and cape roundly wildly, her eyes glowed and cracked with lightning, giving her a monstrous appearance as puffs of mist swirled from her mouth with each breath. "So, who's first?" She said cooly.

OOC: sorry but I got lost, has she appeared in the cafe or is all happening inside her lab?
aqua03 2018-12-04 21:43:46 UTC #264
Dr. Goatmilk went back to her lab to get the suit finished and returned to the alley with the Build Bots near the cafe to wait for the heroes to stop the storm so she and her boss could strike them when they're at their highest. (Gotta hit with the worst when they feel their best!)
Chita 2018-12-04 22:01:42 UTC #265
Flare was threw back by the sudden change of the winds as she was caught off of guard. She stabilized herself pretty soon and watched as Al darted to the eye of the hurricane, surrounded by his own personal blizzard.
“I’m on it!” She screamed, trying to make her voice heard over all the chaos. The storm tried to pull her back again, but the sight of Al had given her a idea. “If I can cover myself with fire, why not with a hurricane?” She blew around herself a warm breeze, and kept it steady with her heat control. Now she had a wind shield that protected her from the cyclone effects.
Now she really noticed Zephyr’s aspect.
“Euuhh... what the hell are you...?” She shaked her head trying to keep focused. “Nevermind, this isn’t the weirdest thing I’ve seen today...” Flare looked at Zephyr with a determined expression “So you may know this suit, uh? Why don’t you look it closer and find out?!”
She threw herself against him with her fists covered in flames, making it seem as if she was going to hit him the same way, but in the last second she turned and hit him in the side with a wing, tail and hot air breath combo.
aqua03 2018-12-04 22:59:49 UTC #266
Zephyr was broken out of his icy prison by Flare's assault. "Why thank you, Other Flare!" He said with another tip of his cap. "You know, my Flare was right! You are full of more hot air than parade balloon! Also, does mouthwash not exist where you came from?" He said playfully with a slight cough, "But, thanks to that little assistance, I guess I could help you guys just this once. If only because I want to get back home with my friends and nothing else!" He said as he shifted himself into a slightly more bird like form with his paws now replaced with large, feathery wings. "Let's go!" He said as he and the Other Flare both flew down back to the cyclone to rejoin with the others. The five got into position, sucking in as much air as they could, Alpha in particular gathering up a small ball of concentrated wind near his mouth. "We only have one shot at this, so on the count of three!" He bellowed over the winds, "One... Two... THREE!" He commanded as the group all blew as hard as they could into the heart of the hurricane, Other Flare and Zephyr now also beating their wings to aid in the gusts, this time making some actual leeway against the storm as the cyclone began to falter.
Back on the ground, the Male Flare and Takeru both awoke and got out of the vines themselves, Flare scratching his head when bethought he saw Zephyr now helping the heroes, "Just what exactly is that flamboyant doofus planning anyways?" He asked himself as both he and Takeru looked at their D-Readers, both telling them they had an hour's recharge to do. "I don't have time for this scrap!" Flare said angrily at his phone "Ymir, Turn on the Dragon!" Takeru was suddenly back in his armor, but it was starting to fade already, "Are you crazy?" Flare yelled over the winds as Takeru ordered Ymir to activate Burst Mode again, "Yes, yes I am." Takeru said to Flare matter-of-factly. A grin crossed Flare's face, "Good, because so am I! Bahamut, Turn on the Dragon and release all Limiters!" He said as he was also now in his glowing armor. The two suits constantly blared every warning light available at them, but they didn't care, they had only one shalt at this and they had to make it count. The two rushed headlong into the heart of the storm. Upon arriving, Flare began absorbing as much heat energy as he could, throwing away excess heat to melt debris to keep from exploding again. Meanwhile, Takeru slammed his fists into the ground to freeze it, producing a subzero mass of ice crystals in the eye of the storm, hopefully robbing it of energy. Selena saw the two at work and her friend joining them in their windy efforts and renewed her blowing as well.
@Rodimus13 Back in the alley, Dr Goatmilk continued her approach as she shot a cold look at the build bots working on the third weather machine, "Ping-a-ling this!" She said spitefully before freezing them solid with a puff of her arctic breath. She then approached Build-a and stared down at her, her enraged face suddenly becoming friendly again, "So sorry about leaving earlier and breaking contract! I panicked! But I'm back now, so you better finish up your end of the bargain!" She said as she slapped down more money for Build-a before grabbing the unfinished weather machine, "And seeing as I now have complete control over the weather, we won't be needing this now, will we?" She said spitefully before crushing it in her hooves. "I will have to hand it to you, that EMP trick was quite clever, if a bit foolish considering that you could've friend your only way back home, leaving you and everyone else stranded here with me. You did, however, fry my food replicator right as I was about to help myself to some much needed french toast..." She said, suddenly becoming angry again. "AND NOBODY MESSES WITH MY FRENCH TOAST! She roared, blowing Build-a and the others over. "Now, please finish up those other suits for me so I can finally take revenge on my sister for how awful she was to me! Unless you want to join your friends back there...." She said as she motioned to the frozen build bots as frost swirled from her nostrils.
Outside the alley, Yvonne was still trying to figure out what his new armor could do. He crossed his arms in a plus sign and to his delight, discovered a powerful forearm mounted beam cannon that activated with that formation. "Sweet!" Yvonne said as he fired off in a random direction, "Hey, Watch it!" Boreas bellowed from across the street. "Whoops! Sorry!" Yvonne said with a giggle as he turned back to the fog, wondering if he could save Build-a and her friends. Thinking quickly, Yvonne quickly produced a box of TicTacs he had in his bag and threw them blindly into the fog. He thought he heard someone yell in pain that sounded like Dr. Goatmilk. Basing his next action off of that, Yvonne reactivated the beam cannon and aimed it carefully, he then fired into the fog in the direction of the noise, hoping that he'd hit whoever was menacing his friend in there.
Back in the fog, Dr. Goatmilk's gloating was cut short by a near miss beam of light. She panicked again when she realized just what that beam belonged to, a suit of power armor she built specifically to counter the suits, suits just like the one she was wearing right now. "That blasted twerp! He stole the Spacium Zenon Suit from me!" She sneered as he looked out of the fog at a small cluster of glowing lights.
Rodimus13 2018-12-05 00:38:04 UTC #267
The funny thing with bots. Sure they fear being destroyed and harmed. But when push comes to shove, most organics take actions that would harm and fear well... them. Being frozen was hardly ideal, but Build-a could sense the others were fine. At the very least the brain cases were fine and that was the important part. Plus, build bots were build to handle all kinds of weather. So they were careful defrosting themselves already.
Build-a stood up and looked. She no longer had any reason to talk. What was the point? No, she and all the build bots silently brought out all arm tools, buzz saws, blow torches and the like. They all moved as if to pick up parts, forming a shape around her starting from behind.
"HEAT UP! ALLIES FIRE AT WILL DON"T WORRY ABOUT US!" Suddenly all the bots went into full heat up mode. The intense heat caused the cool air creating the fog to lift up, creating a great target right in the middle of the fog. This was normally used for quickly melting ice and snow at construction sites, or helping dry concrete or lay ash fault, but this worked too. The build bots all had their bonnets down.
Thier tools all on, they happily sang as they each took turns charging at her to remove parts of the suit.
"Wow! Oh Wow!
You thought you had us now?
so now our tools are coming for you now.
Let's dance! Let's sing!
Because you were so rotten,
our safeties are now forgotten.
Contracts are done, you wreaked our building fun, so now...
we deconstruct."
alliascompany 2018-12-05 01:07:50 UTC #268
Morgan levitated debris away form the group. Rainy flew down to them on his cloud. Taking Zephyr's lead, he shot gusts of wind into the storm as well.
aqua03 2018-12-05 01:16:23 UTC #269
Dr. Goatmilk began to panic as the build bots surrounded her and began to grab her suit, all threatening to rip her only defense she had against her sister now from her, she knew she couldn't have that. She sucked in air before giving off a deafening roar that shattered the glass of every building nearby, "ENOUGH WITH THAT INFERNAL SINGING YOU REJECTED PRESCHOOL TOYS! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH I NEED THIS SUIT, MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!" She roared before trying to take off, only to be weighed down by the Build Bots. Thanks to the clearing fog, Yvonne could finally line up a clear and accurate shot with his Spacium Beam Cannon again as the two locked eyes, Dr. Goatmilk felt her heart drop. "Three Words..." Yvonne said as his beam cannon began to glow, "EAT SOME MINTS!" He said as he fired a full charge shot right at Dr. Goatmilk. The blast hit her square on as it sent her hurtling out of the alley and out of the grips of the build bots. She landed and slid a good distance, her suit sparking and smoking, but still functional. She got up and coughed, "Blast it, I designed the counter suit too well... Time to see of my Plan B will work." She said to herself as she saw the Build Bots continue their approach and Yvonne charge up another beam. She quickly activated the super charged ASTROINX core she plugged into her suit as it released a surge of energy into the air, filling it with a distorted buzzing and ticking noise as everything seemed to flash photo-negative colors for a split second.
After that instant, time seemed to freeze for everyone and everything except for her. She smiled as she got up and dusted herself off before casually walking into the crowd of build bots, rearranging them so that all their tools pointed at each other. She then wandered over to Yvonne and moved him so that his beam would fire and hopefully hit Serena instead before placing an incoming semi truck right next to him as well. She stared at the frozen hurricane and decided to let the heroes stop it so she could let the heroes think they've won, but not before going a few quick puffs of hot air to fuel it a bit more and a few quick super speed laps around the funnel cloud just to wind it up a bit more, to make sure the heroes get a good workout before their conflict with her. She also picked up more rubble and debris, placing it around so to cause even more chaos. She would have loved to cause more mischief, but her time stop was running out, so she needed to get to a safe spot and watch the carnage ensue.
@Chita She quickly flew up and hid under the cover of the storm clouds as she giggled to herself, "And everything going down the toilet in three... Two.... One..." She said to herself as time resumed its flow. Instantly, more chaos broke out as Yvonne just barely managed to divert his beam from hitting the heroes, though the not with out giving them a scare. "SORRY ABOUT THAT!" He yelled just before he was hit by the truck, thankfully his armor protecting him. Dr. Goatmilk laughed to herself as she heated up some popcorn with her heat breath and heat vision and kicked back to watch the show, forgetting just how hungry the super suit made her due to energy usage as she began to shovel popcorn into her mouth. She would've loved to blow more hot air into the storm to fuel it, but she was just too hungry to do so. She'd do it later....
(I listen to You Say Run when writing these to get into the mood, it really helps!)
Rodimus13 2018-12-05 02:13:07 UTC #270
Thankful Build bots recover quickly when changes happen. There was not more than a few scratches as they reorganized to not harm each other. They quickly scanned the area, trying to get a fix on her. Build-a did not like what just happened as it went against what she was able to build or do.
She quickly directed half the build bots to free Yvonne from the truck and get him out safely.
The rest were now ready to move about and she silently started guiding them. She was out of her depth trying to fight them effectively. If the build bots were here there was a chance... a small chance... that someone else was here. And it was time to ping a ling them.
If that failed.... well she could try scanning the suit yvonne had one but there were other concerns about that.
aqua03 2018-12-05 02:29:59 UTC #271
Yvonne quickly got out of the truck and ran back to the rest of Build Bots and was trying to catch his breath, "Hey guys, what the heck happened back there? Who does that Dr. Goatmilk think she is? Ronnie James Marlon?" The Build Bots just looked confused at his comment, "Oh, it's a reference to the manga 'JayJay's Weird Quest.' The Villain in that could stop time and he used to do all sorts of crazy stuff. Good thing I found this power armor in the lab, right guys? I'm sure we would've been goners without it!" Yvonne said while also thinking about how to stop Dr. Goatmilk. "By the way, how's Selena's super suit coming along?" He asked the robots as he tried to use his armor's scanner to see if he could detect the Doctor when he noticed that it could easily detect Serena and the female Flare. However, one or two statements Dr. Goatmilk said during their brief scuffle stood out to him, "Hey guys, one more thing before you get back to work on whatever you guys are doing: What'd do you think she meant when she said 'Her life depends on the suit' and 'I want to get revenge on my sister?' Who do you think her sister is and what'd she do to, pardon the pun, 'Get her goat'?" He asked as the group raced back to the makeshift workshop in the alley.
Back on her cloudy perch, Dr. Goatmilk laughed to herself as she ate more popcorn and coffee (with goat milk creamer). She was definitely grateful that she managed to spray the anti-spacium coating on the suit before the EMP hit. The coating made her completely invisible to her power armor's scanners. She was going to add it to all future models of the suits a while back. At least, until 'it' happened and changed her life forever. Something that ended up sending her down the dark path she was on today...
Rodimus13 2018-12-05 02:58:10 UTC #272
Build-a shrugged as the team kept working on things. "Dunno. But our program has labeled her as a huge risk to the community and fit for destruction. We're going to try and trash her suit instead, but she attempted to destroy my team."
"Oh and as far as the suit, it was stolen..... and really I think I should build that one instead. Stay still please."
The bots scanned it and quickly got to work. Parts were comming up scarce now. "I'm going to try something else too.... maybe we will be super lucky...."
aqua03 2018-12-05 03:08:06 UTC #273
"Oh, was this the suit she stole?" Yvonne said as he reached into the bag and produced a blue and purple suit with yellow accents, one similar to the one Serena, female Flare, and now Dr. Goatmilk were wearing. "I managed to swipe it from her before she tossed me out along with the power armor. You were building two suits from a prototype she supplied, right?" Yvonne asked as the scanned his armor. "Also, what are you planning to do with this one and where are you gonna get the part?" He inquired.
Dr. Goatmilk looked down from her cloud enraged at the sight of Yvonne holding Selena's super suit, "HOW'D HE GET HIS HANDS ON THAT ONE?" She asked herself, careful not to yell as a miniature hurricane began to swirl around her in fury. Thinking quickly, she produced a small tornado and hurled at the group of robots, hoping to smash them to bits and blow the suit away from them. She couldn't use her time stop ability again just yet as the ASTROINX core was still on cool down, but she would try her darnedest to ruin everyone else's day as best as she possibly could.
aqua03 2018-12-06 16:03:43 UTC #274
@Chita @Rodimus13 @alliascompany @Zaboem @DarkerMagic @octafg64 and everyone else, we still doing this? Because we were nearing the really cool climax I was planning.
Rodimus13 2018-12-06 17:37:53 UTC #275
I can post agian sat. I have work trainings
aqua03 2018-12-06 17:42:14 UTC #276
It's okay, take your time. Can't wait to see your continuation! (I'm having a blast with this, we should plan another one soon after this one.)
DarkerMagic 2018-12-07 06:36:58 UTC #277
I don't feel like I can really contribute at this point because everything has gone to bleep and I don't really have any interest in joining. When you guys finish and this is once again a drama free zone. I would be interested.
Chita 2018-12-07 11:21:21 UTC #278
I'm still in, though now I'm rather uninspired as I don't know what to do next , so I'll wait till it moves a little forward.
aqua03 2018-12-07 11:40:39 UTC #279
That's fine, you I was planning on having the group re-group and give one last push to t stop the cyclone soon before the final battle. (Ironically enough, I was actually waiting for you to help continue the story as well...)
@DarkerMagic It's okay if you can't think of any other interesting things to contribute, maybe Kali could show up in a future one of these. (I did have an idea fora follow up involving a 'Villain's Alliance' of different characters taking over and also having @Chita's Flare and my Flare having to work together at the start.)
aqua03 2018-12-07 15:27:38 UTC #280
(Sorry for the double post, but I think I might help move the story a bit further again.)
Boreas just finished stopping the last of the debris that mysteriously appeared in the storm's eye as he stopped to catch his breath. During this brief moment of respite, he saw Yvonne and the Build Bots struggling against the mini tornado that seemed to have blown up out of nowhere. His ice and wind powers haven't fully returned, but they have started to come back enough to help. Realizing he had to work fast, he bolted across the street.
@Rodimus13 The Build Bots were struggling on keeping stable in the mini storm as Yvonne desperately tried to keep Selena's Super Suit from blowing away. Just as it seemed that they'd be lost, a quick blast of icy wind extinguished the twister in its tracks. Yvonne turned to look at his and his friend's savior and saw Boreas. "Hey, it's that buff alpaca in spandex! Thanks for the help!" He said as he slipped Selena's suit back into his bag for safe keeping. "Think you could help us hunt down the brains behind this?" He asked. Boreas scanned the sky with his x-ray vision before staring back down at Yvonne, "That can wait. We have a few more important things to take care of first." Boreas said tersely before motioning back to the cyclone at the cafe. "Oh, right. Guess hunting for Dr. Goatmilk can wait until the weather's cleared up..." Yvonne said awkwardly as Boreas ran back, motioning Yvonne and the robots to come with him. "Come on! We don't have time to waste! Also, the robots should probably also build another one of those anti-storm cannons they sued earlier if they want to be useful..."
@alliascompany Back at the hurricane, Alpha and the rest of the group stopped blowing to catch their breath as he saw Boreas, Yvonne, Build-a, and her group return. Encouraged by this, but knowing his supercharged sate won't last much longer, Alpha Alpaca turned back to his group, "Alright guys, we're doing great, but we only one more shot at this before my Omega form burns out! So take in as much air and heat as you can before blowing out a windstorm that'll make this one just look nothing more than a breeze! On my signal..." He said before turning back to the cyclone and gathering up another ball of hyper-compressed wind in front of his mouth as he inhaled, motioning Other Flare, Serena, the giant Selena, Zephyr, and Rainy to do the same in one final push against the storm.
(There, hope that gives us enough kick in the right direction to get our creativity flowing! )
alliascompany 2018-12-07 18:05:01 UTC #281
Rainy backed up, gathering up a ball of wind. He then waited for the signal.

Basing his next action off of that, Yvonne reactivated the beam cannon and aimed it carefully, he then fired into the fog in the direction of the noise, hoping that he'd hit whoever was menacing his friend in there.
Back in the fog, Dr. Goatmilk's gloating was cut short by a near miss beam of light. She panicked again when she realized just what that beam belonged to, a suit of power armor she built specifically to counter the suits, suits just like the one she was wearing right now. "That blasted twerp! He stole the Spacium Zenon Suit from me!" She sneered as he looked out of the fog at a small cluster of glowing lights.

The funny thing with bots. Sure they fear being destroyed and harmed. But when push comes to shove, most organics take actions that would harm and fear well... them. Being frozen was hardly ideal, but Build-a could sense the others were fine. At the very least the brain cases were fine and that was the important part. Plus, build bots were build to handle all kinds of weather. So they were careful defrosting themselves already.
Build-a stood up and looked. She no longer had any reason to talk. What was the point? No, she and all the build bots silently brought out all arm tools, buzz saws, blow torches and the like. They all moved as if to pick up parts, forming a shape around her starting from behind.
"HEAT UP! ALLIES FIRE AT WILL DON"T WORRY ABOUT US!" Suddenly all the bots went into full heat up mode. The intense heat caused the cool air creating the fog to lift up, creating a great target right in the middle of the fog. This was normally used for quickly melting ice and snow at construction sites, or helping dry concrete or lay ash fault, but this worked too. The build bots all had their bonnets down.
Thier tools all on, they happily sang as they each took turns charging at her to remove parts of the suit.
"Wow! Oh Wow!
You thought you had us now?
so now our tools are coming for you now.
Let's dance! Let's sing!
Because you were so rotten,
our safeties are now forgotten.
Contracts are done, you wreaked our building fun, so now...
we deconstruct."

Morgan levitated debris away form the group. Rainy flew down to them on his cloud. Taking Zephyr's lead, he shot gusts of wind into the storm as well.

Dr. Goatmilk began to panic as the build bots surrounded her and began to grab her suit, all threatening to rip her only defense she had against her sister now from her, she knew she couldn't have that. She sucked in air before giving off a deafening roar that shattered the glass of every building nearby, "ENOUGH WITH THAT INFERNAL SINGING YOU REJECTED PRESCHO
OL TOYS! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH I NEED THIS SUIT, MY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!" She roared before trying to take off, only to be weighed down by the Build Bots. Thanks to the clearing fog, Yvonne could finally line up a clear and accurate shot with his Spacium Beam Cannon again as the two locked eyes, Dr. Goatmilk felt her heart drop. "Three Words..." Yvonne said as his beam cannon began to glow, "EAT SOME MINTS!" He said as he fired a full charge shot right at Dr. Goatmilk. The blast hit her square on as it sent her hurtling out of the alley and out of the grips of the build bots. She landed and slid a good distance, her suit sparking and smoking, but still functional. She got up and coughed, "Blast it, I designed the counter suit too well... Time to see of my Plan B will work." She said to herself as she saw the Build Bots continue their approach and Yvonne charge up another beam. She quickly activated the super charged ASTROINX core she plugged into her suit as it released a surge of energy into the air, filling it with a distorted buzzing and ticking noise as everything seemed to flash photo-negative colors for a split second.
After that instant, time seemed to freeze for everyone and everything except for her. She smiled as she got up and dusted herself off before casually walking into the crowd of build bots, rearranging them so that all their tools pointed at each other. She then wandered over to Yvonne and moved him so that his beam would fire and hopefully hit Serena instead before placing an incoming semi truck right next to him as well. She stared at the frozen hurricane and decided to let the heroes stop it so she could let the heroes think they've won, but not before going a few quick puffs of hot air to fuel it a bit more and a few quick super speed laps around the funnel cloud just to wind it up a bit more, to make sure the heroes get a good workout before their conflict with her. She also picked up more rubble and debris, placing it around so to cause even more chaos. She would have loved to cause more mischief, but her time stop was running out, so she needed to get to a safe spot and watch the carnage ensue.
@Chita She quickly flew up and hid under the cover of the storm clouds as she giggled to herself, "And everything going down the toilet in three... Two.... One..." She said to herself as time resumed its flow. Instantly, more chaos broke out as Yvonne just barely managed to divert his beam from hitting the heroes, though the not with out giving them a scare. "SORRY ABOUT THAT!" He yelled just before he was hit by the truck, thankfully his armor protecting him. Dr. Goatmilk laughed to herself as she heated up some popcorn with her heat breath and heat vision and kicked back to watch the show, forgetting just how hungry the super suit made her due to energy usage as she began to shovel popcorn into her mouth. She would've loved to blow more hot air into the storm to fuel it, but she was just too hungry to do so. She'd do it later....
(I listen to You Say Run when writing these to get into the mood, it really helps!)

Thankful Build bots recover quickly when changes happen. There was not more than a few scratches as they reorganized to not harm each other. They quickly scanned the area, trying to get a fix on her. Build-a did not like what just happened as it went against what she was able to build or do.
She quickly directed half the build bots to free Yvonne from the truck and get him out safely.
The rest were now ready to move about and she silently started guiding them. She was out of her depth trying to fight them effectively. If the build bots were here there was a chance... a small chance... that someone else was here. And it was time to ping a ling them.
If that failed.... well she could try scanning the suit yvonne had one but there were other concerns about that.
aqua03 2018-12-05 02:29:59 UTC #271
Yvonne quickly got out of the truck and ran back to the rest of Build Bots and was trying to catch his breath, "Hey guys, what the heck happened back there? Who does that Dr. Goatmilk think she is? Ronnie James Marlon?" The Build Bots just looked confused at his comment, "Oh, it's a reference to the manga 'JayJay's Weird Quest.' The Villain in that could stop time and he used to do all sorts of crazy stuff. Good thing I found this power armor in the lab, right guys? I'm sure we would've been goners without it!" Yvonne said while also thinking about how to stop Dr. Goatmilk. "By the way, how's Selena's super suit coming along?" He asked the robots as he tried to use his armor's scanner to see if he could detect the Doctor when he noticed that it could easily detect Serena and the female Flare. However, one or two statements Dr. Goatmilk said during their brief scuffle stood out to him, "Hey guys, one more thing before you get back to work on whatever you guys are doing: What'd do you think she meant when she said 'Her life depends on the suit' and 'I want to get revenge on my sister?' Who do you think her sister is and what'd she do to, pardon the pun, 'Get her goat'?" He asked as the group raced back to the makeshift workshop in the alley.
Back on her cloudy perch, Dr. Goatmilk laughed to herself as she ate more popcorn and coffee (with goat milk creamer). She was definitely grateful that she managed to spray the anti-spacium coating on the suit before the EMP hit. The coating made her completely invisible to her power armor's scanners. She was going to add it to all future models of the suits a while back. At least, until 'it' happened and changed her life forever. Something that ended up sending her down the dark path she was on today...
Rodimus13 2018-12-05 02:58:10 UTC #272
Build-a shrugged as the team kept working on things. "Dunno. But our program has labeled her as a huge risk to the community and fit for destruction. We're going to try and trash her suit instead, but she attempted to destroy my team."
"Oh and as far as the suit, it was stolen..... and really I think I should build that one instead. Stay still please."
The bots scanned it and quickly got to work. Parts were comming up scarce now. "I'm going to try something else too.... maybe we will be super lucky...."
aqua03 2018-12-05 03:08:06 UTC #273
"Oh, was this the suit she stole?" Yvonne said as he reached into the bag and produced a blue and purple suit with yellow accents, one similar to the one Serena, female Flare, and now Dr. Goatmilk were wearing. "I managed to swipe it from her before she tossed me out along with the power armor. You were building two suits from a prototype she supplied, right?" Yvonne asked as the scanned his armor. "Also, what are you planning to do with this one and where are you gonna get the part?" He inquired.
Dr. Goatmilk looked down from her cloud enraged at the sight of Yvonne holding Selena's super suit, "HOW'D HE GET HIS HANDS ON THAT ONE?" She asked herself, careful not to yell as a miniature hurricane began to swirl around her in fury. Thinking quickly, she produced a small tornado and hurled at the group of robots, hoping to smash them to bits and blow the suit away from them. She couldn't use her time stop ability again just yet as the ASTROINX core was still on cool down, but she would try her darnedest to ruin everyone else's day as best as she possibly could.
aqua03 2018-12-06 16:03:43 UTC #274
@Chita @Rodimus13 @alliascompany @Zaboem @DarkerMagic @octafg64 and everyone else, we still doing this? Because we were nearing the really cool climax I was planning.
Rodimus13 2018-12-06 17:37:53 UTC #275
I can post agian sat. I have work trainings
aqua03 2018-12-06 17:42:14 UTC #276
It's okay, take your time. Can't wait to see your continuation! (I'm having a blast with this, we should plan another one soon after this one.)
DarkerMagic 2018-12-07 06:36:58 UTC #277
I don't feel like I can really contribute at this point because everything has gone to bleep and I don't really have any interest in joining. When you guys finish and this is once again a drama free zone. I would be interested.
Chita 2018-12-07 11:21:21 UTC #278
I'm still in, though now I'm rather uninspired as I don't know what to do next , so I'll wait till it moves a little forward.
aqua03 2018-12-07 11:40:39 UTC #279
That's fine, you I was planning on having the group re-group and give one last push to t stop the cyclone soon before the final battle. (Ironically enough, I was actually waiting for you to help continue the story as well...)
@DarkerMagic It's okay if you can't think of any other interesting things to contribute, maybe Kali could show up in a future one of these. (I did have an idea fora follow up involving a 'Villain's Alliance' of different characters taking over and also having @Chita's Flare and my Flare having to work together at the start.)
aqua03 2018-12-07 15:27:38 UTC #280
(Sorry for the double post, but I think I might help move the story a bit further again.)
Boreas just finished stopping the last of the debris that mysteriously appeared in the storm's eye as he stopped to catch his breath. During this brief moment of respite, he saw Yvonne and the Build Bots struggling against the mini tornado that seemed to have blown up out of nowhere. His ice and wind powers haven't fully returned, but they have started to come back enough to help. Realizing he had to work fast, he bolted across the street.
@Rodimus13 The Build Bots were struggling on keeping stable in the mini storm as Yvonne desperately tried to keep Selena's Super Suit from blowing away. Just as it seemed that they'd be lost, a quick blast of icy wind extinguished the twister in its tracks. Yvonne turned to look at his and his friend's savior and saw Boreas. "Hey, it's that buff alpaca in spandex! Thanks for the help!" He said as he slipped Selena's suit back into his bag for safe keeping. "Think you could help us hunt down the brains behind this?" He asked. Boreas scanned the sky with his x-ray vision before staring back down at Yvonne, "That can wait. We have a few more important things to take care of first." Boreas said tersely before motioning back to the cyclone at the cafe. "Oh, right. Guess hunting for Dr. Goatmilk can wait until the weather's cleared up..." Yvonne said awkwardly as Boreas ran back, motioning Yvonne and the robots to come with him. "Come on! We don't have time to waste! Also, the robots should probably also build another one of those anti-storm cannons they sued earlier if they want to be useful..."
@alliascompany Back at the hurricane, Alpha and the rest of the group stopped blowing to catch their breath as he saw Boreas, Yvonne, Build-a, and her group return. Encouraged by this, but knowing his supercharged sate won't last much longer, Alpha Alpaca turned back to his group, "Alright guys, we're doing great, but we only one more shot at this before my Omega form burns out! So take in as much air and heat as you can before blowing out a windstorm that'll make this one just look nothing more than a breeze! On my signal..." He said before turning back to the cyclone and gathering up another ball of hyper-compressed wind in front of his mouth as he inhaled, motioning Other Flare, Serena, the giant Selena, Zephyr, and Rainy to do the same in one final push against the storm.
(There, hope that gives us enough kick in the right direction to get our creativity flowing! )
alliascompany 2018-12-07 18:05:01 UTC #281
Rainy backed up, gathering up a ball of wind. He then waited for the signal.
