THE ISTHUL CRISIS

[wright-idea.livejournal.com]

WHO: All Agents and Enforcers Currently Assigned to Isthul.
WHAT: Handling a very tricky diplomatic issue -- and solving a mystery or two in the process.
WHERE: Isthul.
WHEN: Soon after deployment.
NOTES: This log will have separate threads going for different Enforcers.

Phoenix has to admit more people have arrived than he'd expected. At least there's a couple other Enforcers; it's a relief, really, as he doesn't like the idea of managing something this big by himself. If he had his choice, he'd focus entirely on the mysteries at hand -- but obviously, he really doesn't.

Stay calm, Phoenix. These are the times where you just have to put on your best poker face and hope for the best. After all... there's a lot more people relying on you and everybody involved to get to the bottom of things in a satisfactory fashion. And if we fail... I don't want to think about it.

He nods to the arrivals, looking calmer than he feels. "Nice to see you guys. We've got a lot of work ahead of us, so we'd better make sure we have a plan of action."

The man with the sword casually blocks Kirby's Frustration Shot without missing a beat.

"Blade and soul are one," (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihqXPQwXEVU) the man intones in a deep voice, his sword glowing and crackling with brilliant silver energy.

Bringing the blade to bear, it begins to grow and extend in size as he charges right at Gohan, the blade extending to impossible lengths. Bringing himself to a halt by digging his heels into the ground and churning earth beneath him, he swings the enormous blade, now more like a 50-meter whip in a wide arc, targeting Raz, Kirby, Vivio, and finally Gohan, who is at the epicenter of the titanic strike.

If there was a time to go Super Saiyan 2, it was now -- and that was what Gohan did. He had one shot at this. Moving at a speed that eclipsed anything he'd done in this fight before, he flew the only direction left -- up.

Charging energy in his left hand, he dashed in from above. The man was swinging the sword, but he he tried to use the shield to block, Gohan would use his right hand to force it aside, ready to endure any pain it'd cause. Once he had a clear shot, it was ki blast time. At point blank.

Vivio's eyes widen a bit as she's forced to fly up into the air to dodge the massive, impossibly large energy blade whip thing.

"Yeah! That'd be great! And since when could you use telepathy?" Vivio asked Kirby, before concentrating and sending a few blasts of magic of her own towards the man with the sword. If it would hurt him or not didn't matter, distracting him did.

Yeow! Raz doesn't really have the flying thing down; the best he's got is levitation, which at the very least lets him bounce a hell of a lot higher than normal; as he does, though, the sword clips the bottom of his levitation ball, and with a yelp he finds himself plummeting back to the ground, landing hard. Ow.

Raz's--

Whatever Kirby was going to say, it was cut off as the giant sword came crashing at him. Switching Hammer for Cutter, he tried to block the blade.

Instead, the poor creature got launched into the distance.

Give him a few moments, he'll be back.

The man releases one hand on the sword as the blade begins to quickly retract, raising his shield to defend himself from Gohan and Vivio's attacks. However, he was unable to block the ki blast, which took him full in the chest, blowing away his tunic and revealing a shimmering plate mail underneath. Even still, however, he was launched several meters away, slamming into the ground and leaving a large crater.

Standing, he raises his hand to his ear, listening and nodding for a moment.

"It seems our battle has come to an end for today. We shall settle this another time."

Turning, he dashes away as the soldiers and tanks retreat to the safety of the Isthul lines.

Gohan landed and reverted back to normal. He watched the enemy withdraw from the area, before turning to his allies.

"Guys! Is everyone okay?"

Vivio nodded, landing on the ground and turning back into her normal self, panting a bit. "Yeah, I'm okay."

She shook her head. "Thanks for the help Gohan. That could've gone really badly if you weren't here."
