The massive brown Cromian from Cresence's previous encounter was freely plodding through the Abandonded District, his single red eye sweeping the area for anything that moved. Usually, some unfortunate animals such as a stray cat or several rats would catch his attention, and would usually be spattered across the concrete after such. His feet left multiple cracks on the ground with each step, but he paid it no heed.
"Master... wants me to scout... for potential threats..." He rumbled to himself.
His clawed hand clenched suddenly, creating sparks as the blades slid against eachother. His eye narrowed as he growled,
"Nothing here... can be as bad as... he was..."
He seemed to now be in a daze as he stood there, unmoving and eye narrowed.

"Exactly who do you think you are that you think you can walk around here like you own the place?" Myrr scowled as she landed in front of him, taking a fighting stance, "Clearly you aren't good news." she finishes, fingers twitching as she preps herself to draw her sword against enemy attack.

The Cromian either didn't hear her or didn't care as it continued staring blankly at the ground. Not a single twitch nor sign of life came from him, except for the occasional opening of his mandbiles for a split-second. Said mandibles had strings of thick slime hanging between them upon opening, giving off a disgusting sight.
Not once did it blink.

Myrr looked at the cromian with a disgusted look, having no idea why it now just stood there. As a precaution she drew her sword, and unholestered her blaster.
She prepped her sword in a defensive stance, and her blaster was held in a way that would allow her to shoot at the Cromian after blocking his attack, should he actually decide to do so.

The Cromian suddenly jerked, snapping out of his trance. His red eye immedeately swept towards Myrr, then blinked. The ground vibrated beneath him somewhat before he muttered in a low tone,
"It seems to pose somewhat of a threat... but not much of one. However, Master may find it useful..."
It shifted its feet, holding its arms out to the sides as if to show a sign of peace. Then, he suddenly shoved both hands into the street, sending a large crack racing to either side of the street before he grunted, throwing his arms upward. A 'wave' of earth was sent rushing towards Myrr, tearing up the street as it did so.
"Musn't destroy it completely... needs to be alive and mostly intact..."

Myrr blinked. She didn't expect THAT to be its attack, but noe-the-less respopnded with her own move. Pivoting on one heel, she kicked her right foot against the wall of earth charging at her, her immense strength making the kick shatter the all of earth before it could hurt her. She the turned again, and blasted the Cromian in the face multiple times.
'Xe, sneak up behind him and attack when you see the chance.' she told her dark half, who was currently in the shadow state.
'Got it' Xeno-Myrr replied. Unnoticably, Myrr's shadow shifted and stretched to get beside and behind the Cromian, before dissappearing as Xeno-Myrr emerged, claws ready and waiting for her foe to get fully focused on her light half.
Through all this, to help with Xeno-Myrr's cover, Myrr had continued to blast the Ether Lord in the face, now seeing sprays of blood when she hit. Myrr snarled, and then holestered her blaster, frowning when she counted how many shots it took.
'Twenty shots to start drawing a little blood, another ten for small sprays of blood... I need to talk with Barias and see if I can get, or make, a better high speed long range weapon...'
Mentally shrugging to herself, the half-dragon moved in on the Ether Lord and tried to get in some decent slashing attacks on him.

((Barias is dead... has been for a while. Khimera killed him, remember?))
The Cromian stood unflinching through the entire attack, though his eyes twitched when blood dribbled into it. Before Myrr could manage to get to him with her sword, he casually reached behind him and grabbed Xeno-Myrr, throwing her at her light half. His mace-hand suddenly started vibrating slightly before he rushed forward and slammed it into Xeno-Myrr's abdomen, sending both half-dragons flying backwards as a pulse of clear, concussive force ruptured forth from the knob-like protrusions on said weapon.
"You both really... need better... tactics..." He grumbled.
Raising his left foot, he slammed it on the ground, sending an unseen shockwave below the ground and causing a miniature earthquake focused on his location.

(OOC: Myrr doesn't know that, as a matter of fact, none of my characters know that Barias is dead. Hell, until you said that, even I forgot that he was dead... 8( Wow... I suck with my memory at times. Also... I'll add Xeno-Myrr's Hyper Mode power boost later... I intended to do it before I used it... but I forgot... -_-)
Old, worn down buildings toppled all around them, and Xeno-Myrr, being the one on top, was the only one who could do anything to avoid getting crushed. She got to her feet, picking Myrr up as well, and took to the skies were the rubble of falling buildings, and the earthquake itself couldn't hurt them.
Xeno-Myrr glared down at the earthen Ether Lord, and waited for the earthquake to pass before she set Myrr down and snarled. Myrr was about to get up, by Xeno motioned for her to stay back.
"We'll rotate out to keep him on his toes." she whispered to her light half as an explanation. Returning her attention to the earth Ether Lord, Xeno-Myrr roared as her body was out-lined with blue and small 'electrical bolts' arced across her frame.
Xeno-Myrr had gone into Hyper Mode.
The hybrid charged the Ether Lord at a faster rate then Myrr had, and had managed to get a strong slash at her foe's neck, and the turning and thrusting her foot at her foe's thigh, causing the armor to crack badly from the blow, which she then kicked away with the other foot, still moving at least twenty-five precent faster then Myrr did, as she landed a nearly jaw cracking kick to the Ether Lord's face, simultaneously carving a major gash in his arm, before Xeno-Myrr finally lifted the Ether Lord up with one hand and, miraculously taking flight again. She twirled the Ether Lord as she rose, preventing him from counter-attacking. With a roar of fury, Xeno-Myrr hurled her foe down at great speed.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, at a certain house, Solranous' lip twitched.
"This place doesn't normally have earthquakes... Something's going down..." the dragon said, casually picking up Kizoku as he walked out the door.

((True... lol. Kay))
The Earth Lord staggered to his feet, trying to rid his vision of stars as he bled profusely. He blinked the blood out of his eye as he snarled,
"She fights... like the Harbinger... not a good thing."
He bellowed once more as his mace-claw vibrated again, then he lashed it forward at Xeno-Myrr several times, sending wave-like blasts of nigh-invisible concussive force, each slamming into the hybrid with disorienting strength. He growled, knowing he couldn't reach her in the air. He pulled his left arm (clawed one) before lashing at her with it, sending the forearm snaking off on a thick cord of ropy flesh. The clawed hand grabbed her around the entire torso, the bladed edges digging into her black exoskeleton.
"I have you... now!" He boomed.
With a grunt, he quickly retracted the arm, taking Xeno-Myrr along with it as he reeled his mace-hand back, force gathering around it once more...

"Guah!" Xeno-Myrr cried out as she was torn from the Earth Lord's grip by the blow from the mace-hand, making acid blood gush from her waist and come into contact with the ground in great concentrations, leaving holes where the acid touched the ground.
Xeno-Myrr snarled, her Hyper Mode state had weathered a good deal of the blow. Had she been in her normal state, the blow, given the circumstances, would have torn her head off... No doubt about it...
Gotta be careful...
Taking advantage of her wounds, Xeno-Myrr cupped a good amount of her own acid blood, and flinging it at the Earth Lord, hitting his face which was quickly being eaten away on contact. It wouldn't be painful, but she'll be d*mned if it didn't hurt like a b****.
With the Earth Lord distracted by the acid blood on his face, Xeno-Myrr coated her claws and tail blade in the acid blood, before charging again. She stabbed both of her claws into his chest, easily breaching the armor and digging deep enough to draw a gout of blood, then raked them down and through his waist before she pulled her claws away. Her tail blade came around, slashing deep into the uncut arm and dragging it all the way up to and out of his shoulder.
Then, to the Ether Lord's immense surprise, Xeno-Myrr just faded out of existance, while Myrr's shadow returned.
'I need time to heal from that... so obviously we need to swap.' Xeno-Myrr told her light half. Myrr mentally nodded, and tighten her grip on her blade, ready for whatever the Earth Lord threw at her.

The Earth Lord roared in pain, staggering backwards a few steps as he clutched at his wounds.
"Coward! Striking... at one, just... to run away!" He snarled.
He began to crouch down, preparing for an attack as small tremors began pulsing through the ground. Before he could finish whatever he was doing, a mechanical voice boomed,
"I'm not sure if you'd want to take that bet!"
Several bolts of yellow energy slammed into the Earth Lord's back, followed by a large flurry of what appeared to be 6-inch diameter spheres constructed of solid titanium. The Cromian turned around to face Alt Eisen, who himself looked badly damaged as well. The Earth Lord narrowed his eyes, then growled,
"I'll take... you both... on!"
He paused as if hearing something, then clenched his fist.
"As you wish... master..."
With that, he slammed both fists on the ground, sending derbis into the air and obscuring both Myrr and Alt's vision. When it settled, he was gone, replaced by a wide hole in the ground. Alt sighed, muttering,
"Good... he's gone."
Sparking at several areas, he shuffled toward Myrr, muttering,
"I need your help..."

"Ok, I'll help..." Myrr replied, sheathing her sword. The half dragon then made to support Alt's damaged form on herself, so that the machine wouldn't collaspe, or so she hoped.
"What's going on?" the half dragon asked the machine.
"That's what I want to know." Solranous added as he appeared on the scene. "Seems I'm too late to interfere in the fight, but as long as your ok, I'm content with that, but you," Solranous nodded in Alt's direction, "Have clearly seen better days. What's the trouble and where can we help?"

The bot grunted as a small explosion ruptured part of his back, and he growled,
"Spite's... been... infected. He's currently a Zonder."
His voice broke into static in several areas, but he continued,
"The damn thing... Machinima... used parts... Spite tried... thing got him... he's... the mountians... coming..."
His torso issued a harsh screech, and he muttered something.

Solranous looked down, absolutly stunned by this news.
'Spite is a Zonder now!? No... Why...?'
"While I couldn't make out much of that, If I heard right, Spite's coming here. I'll go intercept him, and try and stall him. Myrr, get ahold of Galion as soon as you can. He might know something to help Spite. Also..."
Solranous paused as his eyes closed. A good number of Alt's damages were now being repaired under Solranous' telekinetic influece. While it wasn't a complete repair, it was a hell of a lot better then stumbling around with the possibilty of having another piece of yourself blow up.
"I'm sorry I couldn't make any more repairs then that. Even my might has its limits, and though those limits are expanding slowly with each usage of my telekinesis, they will eventually peak and I will not be able to go any further."
Solranous started hovering into the air, waiting to see if there was confirmation that Spite was coming their way.

Alt nodded in thanks, then his jets began to light up as he took a dead-run towards the mountains, shouting,
"When this is over, I'll get a clean-up crew to repair the place!"
He rocketed into the air, moving along at a decent pace as he grumbled,
"And something tells me we're not the only ones heading there..."
