Geneforce, The Next Generation Episode 2: Sul Thraze Unbound!

(BOOT TO THE HEAD! )

Luna: GAH!!

Iodes: GAH!*She hits the ground hard, not moving. The winds die down and the madness in the area dissipates.*

Luna: *slowly sits up* ow.... Iodes? are you alright?!

Iodes: *Does not respond. She appears to be knocked out cold.*

Luna: *sighs and stands up. She points her blade at the enemy* Why don't you play with me?

[Beach]

The gigantic war machine did not identify them as a threat, but it still armed its cannons anyway. Out of the portal fell... a crystalline dragon? She looked like she was made of emerald, and was wearing green robes. And she was unconscious. The war machine lowered its cannons... aiming at the crystalline dragon.

[Interplanetary Space]

Finally, the planet emerged, and the portal closed with a bright flash.

[Unknown Planet]

Nobody on the planet seemed to notice that they had entered a new universe. Not even a single 17-year old man and his horse at a riverbend. The young adult had a fishing rod in his hand, while the partially-armored horse was munching on a stray patch of grass.

Gashka: Trust me, old bag. I'm WAY out of your league. *readies pole blade for Luna.*

Raem: *looks at the dragon.* What the???? *sees the machine lock on to her* Oh no you don't! *dashes forward and slices the cannon's barrel in half down the barrel, then kicks the two halves together, causing them to seal shut.*

[Beach]

The machine emitted some more noise, then armed two missile launchers, this time locking onto Raem. A pack of twelve missiles shot into the air vertically, then did a 180... right at Raem. And they were homing in on him!

OOC: Unless you're not aware, that's an Akuma. And it's got a LOT of weaponry, as I described it.

Raem: *dashes under the Akuma and sits there.*

Fortunately, the missiles were only somewhat smart-fired; the Akuma had no control over them once they launched. The slow Akuma tried to crawl out of the way, but it only resulted in the missiles hitting some of the other weaponry on its back. Since it had no weaponry on its stomach, it began to crawl backwards in an attempt to get Raem to come out, preferably to crush him.

Raem: No you don't! *stabs sword into the Akuma's stomach and jumps, ripping it in two.*

Finally emitting a final burst of metallic noise, the war machine was no more, and began to disintegrate... into little white cubes that fizzled out of existance. Whatever it was, it was as if it was an illusion. The damage, however, was real; the water was still bloodstained from the giant war machine's gatling guns.

Raem: *lets out a sigh of relief and walks over to the emerald dragon.* hey, Mystess, what do you think this thing is?

Mystess: dunno...

The portal the emerald dragon came out of was still open... as if it led somewhere.

Specifically, it led to a short cliff just above the young man and his horse. He didn't seem to notice the portal; he just kept fishing.

Raem: *picks up the green dragon.* well, we better take her to her home. *steps through the portal.*

As Raem walked through the portal, the energy he generated via simple motion generated a lot of noise, catching the attention of the fisher and his horse. Surprised, he put his fishing pole down and pulled out a smartphone. "Get ready, Sleipnir." he said quietly.

"Gotcha." the boy's horse replied, whinnying softly.

Raem: *yells out.* Hey! is anyone here?! Mystess....this view is beautiful!

What Raem was seeing was what looked like a desert canyon, with a river meandering through it. He was high enough to see multiple canyons around the area. It was beautiful, indeed, but there were two things odd with it; the first was that a massive tubular structure was stretching across the horizon, and the second was that the area appeared to have been shaped by some sort of battle.

Down below, the boy motioned for Sleipnir to come closer, and quickly mounted him. Tapping his smartphone, Sleipnir instantly changed form, gaining a lot of armor and a unicorn's horn. The transformation wasn't that loud, but it was certainly enough to attract attention.

Raem: *looks to where he heard the strange noise.* Who's there?

"I was gonna ask you that!" Sleipnir replied, making his rider facepalm.

Mystess: o.o uh... come out so we can see you?

Raem: Yeah! If you mean no harm, we won't fight you!

Sleipnir stepped out into the open, carrying his rider with him. The fact that he was fully armored, complete with a deadly unicorn horn, made him look very dangerous. His rider, on the other hand, looked like a nerd.

Raem: *sees the horse.* EPIC! *sees rider.* o_o.........not so epic.......
