TFU-Delusion - Monday, April 17, 2000, 8:34 PM Main Chamber - First Floor - Trypticon This large room echoes with the voices and footsteps of Decepticons moving in and out of the City. The room is vast and dull gunmetal grey, its floor scuffed and scarred from the passing of armored feet. This chamber opens to the north, becoming the main hallway through the first floor of Trypticon when he's in city mode. A near-constant din is heard from the barracks, where the majority of the Deceptions here are stationed. Strong, silent guards stand beside the entrance to a mid-sized meeting room, closely monitoring all who attempt to enter it. Contents: Takedown Swindle Obvious exits: Elevator Door leads to Elevator - Trypticon. East leads to General Barracks - First Floor - Trypticon. North leads to Main Hallway - First Floor - Trypticon. West leads to Meeting Room - First Floor - Trypticon. South leads to Guard Post - First Floor - Trypticon. Takedown hands Swindle back his pants... Swindle is heading down the hallway in his swindly way. 8) Delusion strides down the hall, intent on the elevator, but she pauses and politely says, "Greetings" to her sister. Vortex comes in from Main Hallway - First Floor - Trypticon. Vortex has arrived. Takedown grins, "Heya sis." She greets with that sickly sweet grin of hers. "How're you?" You say "Well." Swindle says "Hey Tex!" Vortex meanders out from the main hallway, he still has a hefty limp, just having recovered from being slagged. He nods to all in the room. "Greetings, Swindle..ladies." Delusion smirks at Vortex. "Ah, the great Combaticons.. limping." Takedown glances over at Tex, and tips up her nose a bit higher, "Were you refering to us, or Swindle?" Swindle blinks and looks around him. "..." Vortex looks to Delusion "Ahh at least I suffer injuries protecting the empire. I was preparing for a bit of a patrol. Do any of you femmes want to join me?" he doesnt answer Takedown but seems to include swindle in "the femmes" Swindle says "Since when you need a baby sitter bro?" You say "Judging from his condition, he could use the company of somebody competent." Takedown smirks. "Then he went to see Swindle? Wrong answer..." Vortex sneers to Delusion "tell you what, miss. If I find another Combaticon, prehaps I will have someone compitant to patrol with." he seems to take umbrege to someone questioning his abilities, especially some female seeker he doesn't know. Delusion casts a significant look at Swindle. "Yes.. I doubt that -this- combaticon would be anything approaching competent. Not that the rest of you are any better." Vortex gices delusion a lookover "and this comes from a femme-seeker." Swindle says "Hey toots, why don't you put your money where your mouth is?" Vortex snickers and whispers to swindle. probably something crude Swindle snickers back. Delusion finally gets back on! Vortex says, "i missed everything after my last pose" Swindle says, "I missed everything after well..after responding to Vorty's mutter 8)" Delusion says, "Permission to whip your aft, Tex?" Takedown takes out a dollar, and looks to Delusion, "Allow me." She says with a sweet smile, before looking to Swindle. "Comere." Vortex says, "go for it :)" Vortex didnt get hte answer :) Swindle lols. "Lemme guess, it was something along hte lines of "Take care of Swindle..." *G* Delusion smirks. "I'll take care of the other one.." Vortex says "Don't do it, Swindle. She is merely trying to embarass you." Too late, Swindle's following the dollar that the pretty lady has. Swindle says, "ooh, what's that thing you have to do to make someone ok?" >> Vortex is reactivated by Swindle.<< Swindle says, "there we go, try 'im now 8)" >> Delusion strikes Vortex with Whip. << Delusion slips out her multi-studded whip and lashes out, catching it about Tex's limping legs. Swindle reaches for the dollar, foolish boy Takedown waves the dollar back and forth, and mouths something softly, before she drops the dollar, and suddenly drives her knee straight up into Swindle's crotch. >> Takedown strikes Swindle with Kick. << Delusion jerks the whip back suddenly to pull the combaticon off his feet.. Delusion says, "Y'mind a combatroll?" Swindle shoulda know, he really should have...stupid fragged up greed programming.... After a high-pitched warbling shriek, he drops to the ground, whimpering softly. Vortex says, "go for it :)" Vortex says, "at least she didnt crush you :)" Swindle says, "thank GOD! *G*" >> Delusion succeeds with its generic combat roll on Vortex. << Takedown looks down at Swindle, wincing sympathetically internally, honest. Vortex yelps out as he is entangled in the whip. As Delusion pulls back, he falls flat on his rump. He snarls, this seems to have angered him. "Well, missy. Looks like someone has to spank the bad girl" he seems to be playing, as he takes a blade off his back. No handle on this "sword, he just holds a blade in his hand and tries to swipe at delusion. Vortex says, "mind, del? :)" Delusion says, "Go ahead" Swindle recovers much more quickly than he lets on, whipping one of his legs out in an effort to trip Takedown. >> Vortex strikes Delusion with Slice. << >> You are struck by Vortex's Slice for 41 damage. << Swindle has partially disconnected. Swindle tests Delusion steps back from the low slice. A slow smile spreads across her lips as she pulls back her whip again, then flicks it in front of her body, directing the studded heads skillfully towards Vortex's hand. >> Delusion strikes Vortex with Disarm. << >> Vortex temporarily loses motor functions from the attack! << >> Swindle strikes Takedown with Kick. << Swindle says, "oh no! Vorty's lost his mojo!" Takedown murfs, and gets tangled up, falling back on her aft with a wuff, and her security instincts kick in suddenly. Vortex acks as his blade goes scattering from his hand. He spends the next few minutes trying to rearm himself, leaving him open for attacks. Takedown grabs a small device from her belt, and throws it into Swindle's face, and it suddenly explodes with a bright flash, and massive heat, in an attempt to scramble his senses for a moment, and get back to her feet,. >> Takedown strikes Swindle with Blinding. << >> Swindle temporarily loses motor functions from the attack! << Swindle got his hands up in time to keep from being permanently damaged but he's still an open target. Welcoming in fact, like a little sign reading "Hurt me plenty!" Delusion seems almost to dance as she kicks out at Vortex. Again, the source of mech pride is aimed for as she crouches low and kicks hard. >> Delusion strikes Vortex with Kick. << Vortex winces as he's hit in the family jewels. However..oddly..he offers a slight giggle after comming up from pain. "You know, something, pretty. now you're going to have to make it better" he says, as he takes his other blade off his back and attempts to twist it into her already open wound. Apparently, this one just seems to enjoy dealing and feeling...pain. >> Vortex strikes Delusion with Slice. << >> You are struck by Vortex's Slice for 39 damage. << Swindle has partially disconnected. What to use, what to use, what to use... Takedown considers her options, and upon hearing Vortex, snaps into action, "Sis, partner switch!" She grabs the flailing Swindle by the arm, and gives him a hard swing, flinging him towards Vortex. >> Takedown strikes Swindle with Throw. << Vortex says, "attack me too :)" Swindle yelps as he's tossed, slamming into what feels like..eww, 'tex. He pushes back, still disoriented from the flash. >> Takedown strikes Vortex with Throw. << Vortex Staggers back to the ground, his already bad leg giving out as he's hit with a facefull of Stumpy. Delusion narrows her eyes at the deepening slice, that casual smile still on her face even as she shifts targets. Here is some true fun. A stiff hit from her left aims to seperate the two mechs. >> Delusion strikes Swindle with Roundhouse. << Takedown grabs her nightstick, and swings it around in her hand, preparing to face off against Vortex and his sword. "Alright, let's see. You can keep fighting, and lose your interface.. again. Or you can simply drop the sword, and surrender. Your choice." Swindle gurfs as he's knocked away from Vortex. "...what th'?" he sputters, making vauge unconnected threats. "..c'mon b*tch...your aft is mine, now..." as he tries to find the target. Swindle pages: whatever you wanna do, I'm aft_whup_OK You paged Swindle with 'Okay. :)'. Delusion dances back out of the way and brings her multi-headed whip about with an audible *crack*. The sharp edges of the studded heads race across Swindle's chestplate.. >> Delusion strikes Swindle with Whip. << Swindle says, "brb!" Vortex looks to takedown, oddle he becomes submissive. he puts his sword away.. "yes, ma;am..the sword is gone.." he grumbles. Then, in a quick motion, he brings out his glue gun "lets see how you lik(ignore) Vortex says, "ignore this. im on raw telnet :)" Swindle *yelps* like a whipped turbopuppy and backs up, reluctant to use his guns until his visions clearer. "Knock it off!" Vortex looks to Takedown. Oddly, he becomes submissive. He puts his sword away "yes, mam..the sword is gone" he grumbles. Then, in a quick motion, he brings out hte glue gun "lets see how you like being at our mercy" he says in a dark voice, firing at Takedown." >> Vortex misses Takedown with Glue-Gun. << Vortex says, "what a time to miss :)" Swindle golfclaps...*G* Takedown seems to sense the attack. After all, she knows con mechs, They never surrender. Idiots they are. She waits for the gun to come up, and then with a graceful -- too graceful movement, as if all that bulky armor should have never been there, she moves with a fluid motion almost born of a natural dancer. As she twists, she brings up her nightstick as if it were a natural extention of her own body, and drives it hard at the good knee of Vortex, "You were warned." >> Takedown misses Vortex with Blow. << Swindle tries not to snicker at the miss *or* the attack name....*g* Delusion laughs, though her gaze remains mostly on Swindle and her alert stance never falters. "I'll wager they miss even in the recharger." Swindle growls, optics blinking furiously as he reaches for one of his smaller handguns (pasting a new member of the organization across the wall being frowned upon by Meggs). Takedown is too busy laughing at Deluison's sudden crack, and whiffs, "Later sis!!" She cackles, as she tries to regain her posture. Swindle pages: ok to try and get off a shot or d'you wanna nail me again? 8) You paged Swindle with 'Go ahead.. after all, I've nailed you.. ;)'. >> Swindle strikes Delusion with Holdout_laser. << >> You are struck by Swindle's Holdout_laser for 53 damage. << Swindle says "I *never* miss." Delusion spots the laser, but does not move quite on time. Never mind. That's a lot of force behind that fist aiming at Swindle's face.. >> Delusion strikes Swindle with Bash. << Swindle meeps! Vortex says, "lag" Swindle's head snaps back as though someone yanked it. He stands there, blinking for a moment, before slowly dropping to his knees. Vortex flies out of the way of takedown's attack, as he comes down from above with his fists at her "Maybe missy..its time that we take you down and take you for a little flight.." he says with a snarl. >> Vortex strikes Takedown with Punch. << You say "Nor do I." Swindle gets his feet under him and pounces Delusion, trying to pin her to the floor. >> Swindle succeeds with his generic combat roll on Delusion. << Delusion gets tackled. She quite simply does what the situation demands and headbutts Swindle. >> Delusion succeeds with its generic combat roll on Swindle. << Takedown gets snagged, and her optics narrow, "You did not ask before trying to dance with me." She says in mocking tones. "And like Swindle, I too come pack with a ranged bite." She grins darkly, and suddenly grabs a pistol. Oh dear, is that a sonic amplifier, much like Onslaught's? For poor Vortex, yes.. yes it is that weapon. She suddenly fires off a pulverising sonic burst at point blank range. "Fly this off, chopper boy." >> Takedown strikes Vortex with Sonic-stun-gun. << >> Vortex temporarily loses motor functions from the attack! << Swindle blinkblinks then shakes his head hard. "Cute," he says. "Real cute. But I think it goes a li'l something like this." Swindle brings his head back and returns the headbutt with a vengeance. Swindle pages: ok to use bash? You paged Swindle with 'Sure.'. >> Swindle strikes Delusion with Bash. << >> You are struck by Swindle's Bash for 44 damage. << >> Swindle succeeds with his generic combat roll on Swindle. << Takedown suddenly grabs Vortex, and swings him around, "Delusion, fastball special!" She yells, her intent clear. She swinging around Tex to use him as a bat to try to crush Swindle. Better duck, sis. Delusion gets knocked back to the ground for a moment, and shakes her head sharply to clear the daze. Still, that smile never leaves. You'd think she -likes- the pain. Swindle blacks out for a moment, headbutting when you're already groggy just isn't a good idea. He recovers quickly though. >> Takedown strikes Vortex with Throw. << Delusion flattens herself quickly, avoiding the Vortex missile. >> Takedown strikes Swindle with Crush. << Swindle is overcome by injuries, losing consciousness. Swindle meeps!!! Swindle falls limp on the ground. No noise, no protests, no bitching or whining, just out cold. Delusion hauls herself back to her feet, shoving Swindle's limp body out of the way. Vortex is smacked right into swindle, crunching into his brother. He looks over at the other two realizing this game is becomming slightly deadly "time to end this" he says, firing his glue gun at delusion, since she's closer to his downed brother. >> Vortex strikes Delusion with Glue-gun. << >> You are struck by Vortex's Glue-gun for 62 damage. << >> Delusion temporarily loses motor functions from the attack! << >> You are stunned! << Vortex says, "y'all mind if I do something nasty :)" Takedown says "...awright, Tex, I have had just about enough of you..." Takedown says, "Course not..." Delusion finds herself covered in the sticky substance. She growls and her eyes take on a dark tinge. Delusion says, "Sure.." Vortex approaches delision, summoning a small, tiwsted and rusty blade from subspace "now pretty. lets see how you do without one of thos nice optics.." this one is sure deluded. He shoves the blade into delusion's left optic. >> Vortex strikes Delusion with Interrogation-blade. << >> You are struck by Vortex's Interrogation-blade for 18 damage. << Vortex also looks up at takedown "if you want your sister to see..back off." Swindle lies like a rug....literally for once... Takedown blinks at Vortex. God, him and Delusion are made for each other. She smirks at Vortex and suddenly drops her sonic gun, backing up a step. "Oh please... please don't hurt my sister..." she says plainly, and in true Swindle fashion, god does she sound sincere.. Delusion takes the hit and growls a bit louder.. the whip that has never left her hand takes on a sheen of electricity as she powers forward enough to strike at the mech in front of her with a sudden, fierce lunge. >> Delusion strikes Vortex with Electrified_whip. << >> Vortex temporarily loses motor functions from the attack! << Swindle says, "brb, just figure I'm a swindleskin rug 8)" Vortex is distracted by Takedown's plea..which leaves him open to take the whip right around his neck, dragging him to the ground! Takedown kicks the nightstick back up into her hand. "Golf?" Delusion's smile has turned to a half-insane grin as she carefully hauls Vortex to where she can solidly place her foot upon his back. "Mine." Delusion says, "Del's lost control...." Delusion says, "Well, at least for now. ;)" Vortex says, "oh dear :)" Takedown curtseys cutely. "All yours, sis." Vortex is hauled agaisnt the wall, unable to fight back he just growls. Delusion takes out -her- interrogation knife. Not some rusty blade, but a precise laser scalpel. She tears more of herself free and draws a line from the top of Vortex's head, down along his cheek, circling in towards -his- eye.. >> You don't have 'laser_scalpel' enabled. << >> Delusion strikes Vortex with Laser-scalpel. << Vortex is overcome by injuries, losing consciousness. Vortex says, "meep :)" Vortex takes the blade to his face, shivering...liking it for a few brief seconds before his systems have decided they have had enough, and just..shut down. he limpens, probably still smiling under his mask. Freak. Delusion slips the scalpel so delicately into the frame that seats the Combaticon's optic and almost gently slices it out, dropping it onto the floor. She picks it up and looks at it, that gruesome grin still on her face for a few moments before she remembers to act normal. Vortex says, "this is embarassin :)" Delusion heys, you guys started it. ;) Delusion slips her whip back into its place and braces herself, then jerks the knife out of her own eye, wincing at the sparks and holding onto as much rationality as she can. Swindle says, "TEX started it!!" Swindle groans. Vortex doesnt make any sounds at all. His systems are overloaded from the hurt..even if he likes it. Delusion closes her optics briefly. Well, sort of. The injured optic half-closes, then refuses to open back up. Swindle says, "brb again 8)" Takedown says "So, should we drop em someplace, and get you looked at, sis?" Delusion nods. "The garbage heap?" Swindle's wounds spark and pop as his SR systems try, fail and burn out. Takedown says "You mean the Ark?" Swindle MEEP! Delusion smirks. "That would work." Takedown hmms. "Then Megatron might get pissed if he found out.. hmm. No, maybe.. ah, I know." Takedown grins, "Practice your artwork lately, sis?" Delusion quirks the ridge over her good optic. Swindle says, "Uhmmmmm....I think I'd rather go to the Ark....*G*" You say "Not since we arrived.." Takedown gestures to the two mechs on the floor, "You can show me some of that modern stuff you were working on before we left..." Vortex says, "meep me too!" Swindle cleaves onto Vortex and cries like a frightened kidelt Delusion grins. "Ah.. yes.. there is plenty to work with, here, too. It only has to be cut into the proper shapes.." Takedown says, "Ever seen that movie with Charlie Sheen and Emilio Esteves as garbage truck drivers?" Vortex twitches a finger semiconsciously, he sparks from his missing optic socket. Vortex says, "noooo :)" Swindle nods but doens't quite rememver what your'e talkinga bout Takedown says, "There's one scene where they take their rivals, and handcuff them, without clothes on, in a very embarassing position to a merry go round." Takedown says "Aww, who needs that, you only need the armor, right? Cause.. I have an idea..." Vortex says, "meep!" Delusion waits. Patience is one of her better virtues.. the rest need some work. Swindle CRIES!! Takedown says "Just leave me the bodies. Here, help me get this armor off..." Takedown starts stripping the two mechs, whistling a merry little tune. Delusion takes the other ends, taking off the armor ruthlessly. Swindle is sooooo glad he's unconscious... Takedown looks around, and finally sees what she wants, and grins wildy, flipping a coin. "Call it sis." Vortex says, "me too :)" You say "Heads." Swindle meeeps! Takedown catches the coin. "Tails.. hmm, Swindle, looks like you get to be on top for a change..." Vortex says, "mother :)" Swindle says, "WHOHOO!!!" Delusion grins. "What brotherly love," she comments. Swindle just dies. You say "Repair bay? The commisary? Where shall we leave them?" Takedown grabs Vortex, and a pair of restraints, and drags him over to a large console. She drapes the mech over the console, and handcuffs him to the power conduits on the other side. "Oh, right here in the middle of the open area is fine by me." Swindle says, "AUUUGH!!!!!" Vortex wiiimpers. Takedown kicks Vortex's legs open, spread eagling him as she strolls back over. "Restraints, sister?" Delusion nods, hefting Swindle up to hand him to her sister once she's done with Vortex. Takedown grabs Swindle by the back of the neck, and just grins, "This is gonna be great!" Swindle says, "what really sucks is, I'm hurt really *bad* right now too...*sniffles*" Delusion then pulls out a fine, strong wire that tends to cut into the joints it's wrapped around. Tools of the trade. "Try some of this." Takedown hmms, and shrugs. "It'll have to do..." Vortex says, "you and I both :)" Delusion says, "Maybe you can have Ons discover you. ;)" Takedown carries Swindle over to Vortex, and positions him.. jusssst right. Vortex wimpers harder! Swindle says, "Oh here's hoping!" Deep within his, for want of a better word, soul, Swindle whimpers. Vortex has no idea whats going on but something's pokey :) Takedown locks the wrists into place, and folds Swindle's arms in such a way that it will be very hard for him to disentangle from Vortex, and locks him in. Swindle says, "y'know, the only good news is we're both too badly beaten for any sort of err...'reaction'...*G*" Vortex says, "amen to that :)" Delusion says, "Yeah.. oh, well.. maybe the seekers will find you.." Vortex wimpers. please neither of you have repair or stimulants? :) Delusion doesn't. Vortex whews :) Delusion says, "At least, not on her." Takedown whistles, and pulls out her first aid kit. All good cops are trained in minor first aid. Vortex trembles! Takedown grabs a pair of injectors, "...this will at least get their self repair systems to working -- until a medic finds them." She injects one each, and steps back, "To the repair bay, sis?" Delusion steps back, considers the arrangement, and nods, picking up the armor pieces to remove evidence. "Let's." Swindle says, "Ok if I +repair me and tex once?" Takedown says, "Sure. :)" Vortex says, "brb all. tex's player has to potty. BAD :L)" Vortex was laughing a little too hard :) Takedown says, "I could always bring in Fargo....." >> Swindle finishes the repairs on Vortex. << Swindle says, "NO!!!!" >> Swindle finishes the repairs on Swindle. << Delusion says, "Which is worse.. admitting that you were slagged by a pair of femmes on your own side, or having people assume the worst?" Vortex says, "thats a wrong idea man :)" Delusion says, "Anyone log this?" Vortex is just glad you didnt inject a stimulant into our interfaces and leave us erect or something :) Vortex wishes :) You have +awarded Takedown for excellent roleplaying. Swindle says, "SHHHS!" You have +awarded Swindle for excellent roleplaying. You have +awarded Vortex for excellent roleplaying. Vortex says, "brb potty!" Delusion walks down the hall, heading towards repairbay.. Takedown goes to the Elevator Door . Takedown has left. You go to the North . Main Hallway - First Floor - Trypticon Obvious exits: West leads to Repair Bay - First Floor - Trypticon.

Takedown has arrived. Delusion lies still as a droid begins repairing the damaged optic. [Decepticon] Firecloud says, "You know, I think more people should see this.." [Decepticon] Onslaught says, "See what, praytell?" [Decepticon] Firecloud says, "Oh.. I just found a couple of your brothers. They have an interesting way of showing affection within the family." [Decepticon] Onslaught says, "And this would be where?" [Decepticon] Firecloud says, "Out in the middle of the hallway." [Decepticon] Onslaught sighs, and states dryly, "And they are usually so private about it. I shall be there momentarily."
