PLOT: Refined Shell battle!

Who: Open!
What: Crustacean commotion. CRAB BATTLE.
When: 26th September, daytime
Where: Las Vegas, flooded area and surroundings
Warnings: Violence. If your thread requires more warnings, please note them in your comment header!


[ At eleven AM, a pulsing shockwave resonates throughout Las Vegas. Seemingly coming from somewhere deep underground, the ripple of force doesn't last long - but that doesn't mean that it isn't strong enough to make any nearby reincarnates stumble or fall.

The quake that happens soon afterwards is much stronger. Unlike the last, it seems to rumble on and on... until it reaches its crescendo with the emergence of a monstrous pink crabster from beneath the recently-flooded area of the city. A miniature tsunami accompanies the 300-foot behemoth, further damaging the surroundings not already levelled by the flooding and the quakes.

It doesn't take long for Refined Shell to get its bearings and begin its rampage. Everything within range can expect to be swiped at, stamped on or crushed between its pincers in its mindless rage.

You might say it seems to be feeling a touch... crabby. ]

I used my scythe-gun-thing! I'm kind of a good shot apparently!

[She's absolutely surprised by this herself seeing as when she went out to do firearm practice with her aunt, she could barely aim a pistol and now apparently she could handle a full sized sniper rifle. She was absolutely ecstatic about her new found abilities.]

What about you-when did you get laser beams!? That's so cool!

[He wants to ask and say more, like "I thought you couldn't even hold that thing up!" and "since when was that thing a gun?" and a million more, but unfortunately there's a rampaging crab to deal with. Plus, she asked him some questions too.]

Just now, I guess--I knew ghosts could have them, but I didn't think I did!

[Unfortunately, they don't seem to be doing too much damage. He throws both of his hands forward and grits his teeth as he tries to power it up. Sure enough, the combined beam strengthens into a green so bright it almost appears white and crackling, but it still isn't enough. He tries harder, his grunt turning into a scream from the effort, until eventually the beam from his hands die. Instead, the scream becomes unbearably loud, and it echoes. Shockwaves of green emanate from his screaming and smack the crab right in its sensitive area, causing it to unbalance and stumble backwards to try and right itself under the force of it.

It only lasts for a short time, though, because after about 15 seconds, it stops, and Danny slumps over, barely able to keep himself standing. He looks dazed and exhausted.]


Oh, whoa.
onecream_fivesugar: (Don't leave me)

[personal profile] onecream_fivesugar 2014-10-01 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

Nice!

[Robyn had to admit those blasts were pretty flashy and only became more impressive when they were combined into a single beam. She went to shield her eyes as the blast became brighter only to change her focus to covering her eyes as Danny's attacked suddenly became a sonic scream that pounded into the Crab.

...That was certainly a thing.

When the attack finishes she uncovers her ears so that she can effectively display how wow'd she was by the display. Except it's cut short when she notices Danny can barely keep himself up on his feet, she'll ditch her scythe and dash his way at an impressive speed to try and catch him before he falls.]


Da-C-Cure Phantom!

[It's only thanks to Robyn's quickness that Danny doesn't simply crumple into a heap on the floor. Instead, his legs give way and he swoons into her arms with a soft groan. And thankfully, Robyn is also there to obscure him from sight, so when he involuntarily transforms back into Danny Fenton, not many people can see it.

When he speaks, his voice is small and weak.]


Oh man. That--that's never happened before.

[He tries to push himself back up onto his own legs, but instead ends up collapsing into Robyn's grasp even more.]
onecream_fivesugar: (Concerned)

[personal profile] onecream_fivesugar 2014-10-01 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Robyn is about to brace herself when Danny swoons only to find she's actually able to support his weight his weight just fine. She's a little surprised at this even though she had been carrying around her giant scythe like it wasn't anything special only a moment ago. Sudden increased was strength was weird and wasn't really used to it.]

Woah, woah. Easy there. I gotchya.

Apparently.

[She's tries to help Danny up to his feet only to have him slip back into her arms a moment later. Jeez, what was she going to do with this guy? She couldn't just leave him here with the giant crab still scuttling about. She'd have to get him away from the fight.]

Okay, I'm going to try something so just bear with me.

[She keeps one arm around Danny's back and moves to wrap the other around the crook of his knees, she then tried to lift him and to her surprise she could actually do it.

She had to admit, this increased strength was kind of awesome.]

[Xander was scouting through the shadows for more people to rescue. He eventually spots Robyn with Danny, getting an interesting bit of information about the collapsed young man. It takes him a moment to teleport over and emerge partially from the shadows. He could only hope that his appearance wouldn't startle either of them, with his black eyes and mask.]

Is he all right?

[At least he'll start off with something simple and not assume what the situation was. There was a possibility that they may not even need his help.]

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-02 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
'm fine.

[He says, mumbling as he lays limp in Robyn's arms, looking sick and weak.]

Just...just a little tired.
onecream_fivesugar: (The heck is tha!?)

[personal profile] onecream_fivesugar 2014-10-02 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Robyn for one is startled and nearly drops Danny in fright when Xander starts to step out from the shadows. She just barely manages to keep a decent grip on Danny as she jumps and takes a few nervous steps back.]

Uhm-Alright? Well...

[She'll glance down at Danny as he mumbles before she turns her attention back to Xander.]

H-he says he's okay. He doesn't really look it though...
dominateartimus: (Never seen a soldier quite like me)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-02 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry for startling you, miss.

[At least he's genuine with his apology, even if he can't look sorry at the moment. He glances at Danny then turns his attention to the Refined Shell fora moment. They shouldn't be here for long.]

Then he probably not well. I'm a part of the network and I can take him to somewhere safe rather quickly.
gogoghostpowers: (Fenton: displeased // you idiot)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-02 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
I said I'm fine!

[He manages to sound forceful for a moment, and even acts on it, wriggling out of Robyn's grasp to get back on his own two legs to prove just how fine he is.

The answer is not at all, because he almost immediately loses his balance and falls to the ground with a soft 'oof.']


...see?
onecream_fivesugar: (Bit lip)

[personal profile] onecream_fivesugar 2014-10-03 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh-Don't worry about it. ...It's not exactly hard to do.

Woah-hey!

[She hadn't really expected him to try and get up again so it wasn't too hard for him to get out of it and onto his feet. She tried to catch him when he fell over again but was a little too slow.]

Yeah... Totally fine.

[She'll kneel down to try and help him back up. Her eyes will shift back over to Xander.] </i That would be pretty great, if you could.
dominateartimus: (Words I say and what I hide)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-03 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[He won't comment about how easily it is to startle Robyn, but seeing Danny being stubborn causes him to frown. Even though the expression went unseen due to his mask. So, he moves over to assist Robyn.]

I can. [He nods before moving to get a better hold on the younger man.] But, you need to be careful as well, miss.

[Even though it doesn't need to be said, it helped reassure himself a little bit that he won't have to come back here for another injured person. His attention shifts to Danny and gives him a small warning.]

This might feel a little weird for what I'm about to do. We're going to change dimensions and disappear in to a shadow.
gogoghostpowers: ([F] i went to see what i could find)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-06 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Danny gives up on fighting. Much as he wants to keep helping--that's what heroes DO!--after that little spill, even he can recognize that he's worse than useless now.

It's too bad that attack of his didn't bring it down. He can only hope it did some damage.]


Right, okay. Changing dimensions, disappearing in shadow, got it. I've done that before.

[Kind of.]
dominateartimus: (Shadowy retreat)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-08 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Really?

[His eyebrows raise in surprise, but it goes unseen due to his mask. He doesn't recall ever taking Danny with him through the shadows. Perhaps the younger man was referencing a different ability with someone else.

Now was not the time to linger and waste more time. So, he starts to sink in to his own shadow with Danny in tow. Continuing the conversation wouldn't be much of an issue, but it would alert others to their location.]
gogoghostpowers: (Fenton: unexpected display of power)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-09 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
Well, not ex--whoa!

[Whatever dimension-changing powers Danny has experience with, it becomes clear that it's not this one, because as they sink into the shadow, Danny yelps and flails a little, then groans from the ache all over.

Turns out, going through portals or shadows or whatever isn't a universal experience, because Danny is woefully unprepared for this experience.]
dominateartimus: (Default)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-09 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[Thankfully, the transition was rather painless one. Even though Danny did have a minor freak-out and groaned, Xander let out a sigh.]

...I tried to warn you. Are you all right?

[At least they were able to move freely and without much trouble now. Xander was intending to take Danny away from trouble and closer to the paramedics. His company was free to voice his opinion on where he wanted to be delivered.]
gogoghostpowers: ([F] don't be afraid)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-10 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'm fine.

Just annoyed I have to get carried out like this in the first place.
dominateartimus: (Feigning interest)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-10 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
Good. [He sounds a little relieved at that. Danny's mutter earns him a chuckle.] You'll be fine. It wasn't the worst thing that could have happened to you.

[What those things were, could be left up to Danny's imagination.]

...The paramedics are just over here.
gogoghostpowers: ([F] a picnic on a cliff)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-11 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
I don't need to talk to paramedics. I'm fine. More or less.

[he pouts.]
dominateartimus: (Never seen a soldier quite like me)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-11 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
You've exhausted yourself and most likely strained your body. The paramedics can look after you until you're able to move on your own.

[He was moving ever so closer to the vehicle.]
gogoghostpowers: ([F] walkin w a dead man over my shoulder)

[personal profile] gogoghostpowers 2014-10-13 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
No! [Danny lowers his voice to a hiss, since they're approaching the paramedics now.] I don't even know what they'll find if they try running any tests on me or whatever. They might find out I'm not--not human.
dominateartimus: (Something is wrong)

[personal profile] dominateartimus 2014-10-13 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
[The sudden demand causes him to slow down. It was a valid concern since he has a 'second skin' that appears when he's badly injured.]

Then what do you suggest? I can't leave you in the middle of a war field.
