"I've got my bike so I'll get there in no time." Said Skai, looking off into the distance. At the mention of missles, he snapped his head around and said "HE minis you say? I'll take em. Been wanting to get my hands on some of those for awhile now." Walking over Skai extracted the missles and firing mechanisms. "(Whistles), very nice. Very nice." he said as he inspected them. He starts searching the suit for anything else that's salvagable.

At this, Matthias shrugged. "I'll jog then and see the sights - I shouldn't be there too much behind you two. See you both there."

With that, he took off at a deceptively fast pace, at a little over 35 miles per hour by the American system of measurement. As he did, he did enjoy the sights as he jogged past.

Walking back to his bike with his new prizes in hang, Skai carefully loaded the missiles onto his bike. Then after making sure everything was secure, he hopped on, fired it up, and took off for Newtown.

Speedy took off after the two riders with his new gun strapped to his back. A smile on his face he passed both of them running backwards and waving.

After a good 30 minute run/ride there is an exceptional sound none have you have heard before. It is as if the a giant single shot railgun were being fired. Soon you see the town of Newtown as you proceed towards the sounds. Infront of the town gates is a legendary Glitter Boy Powered Armor locked in combat with two Samsons. As the Glitter Boy repositions itself for a shot, the two Samsons (which are painted in the same colors as the one you battled earlier) get hit from behind. A pair of Juicers, one with a PAS Helmet (obviously a Delphi Juicer) and one wearing Mankiller EBA dash out of nowhere and enter the fray attacking the rear of the two Samson PA. Before anything else can happen the two Samsons are quickly routed and running off to the North West.

Upon seeing another someone being harassed by idiots in Samson power armor, Matthias unslung his rifle. However, the fight was short enough that he didn't even have time to open his rifle case to assemble it before it was over, courtesy of more Juicers. Shrugging, he put the rifle case back over his shoulder, and went back to jogging.

"Well, you don't see that everyday," he remarked as he jogged closer to the Juicers and the shining Glitter Boy ahead. He'd go without weapons out, as it would be less threatening. Besides, it wasn't as if Matthias would ever be unarmed for long, no matter the circumstances.

Cruising along on his bike, watched the quick little skirmish unfold. "Man, what is up with all the power armored assholes around here?" Putting that question at the back of his mind for now, he just relaxed and enjoyed the rest of the ride to Newtown.

Suddenly a large and bulky hover APC comes screaming in and slides up near the battle sideways and as soon as the rear hatch lowers, an immense Titan steps out with a railgun in his right hand and a large grenade launcher in his other. He hops to the ground and the APC roars off so as to not be hit by any fire. The solid black armor glistens in the light as the man opens fire with his rail gun onto the nearest samson armor

The damaged Samson takes a dive as the APC comes rumbling down at it and he hits the dirt. The Samson then takes a full railgun blast to the back as the Titan Juicer opens up. Shattering what remained of the Samson's back armor the railgun blast tears through the PA like tissue paper and the PA begins to spark.

Stopping and chucking as the new figure in black hopped out of an APC, Matthias watched as the figure loosed some firepower on the closer of the fleeing Samsons.

"Well, that looks like fun," Matthias said to himself with a small smile, as he rapidly went through the task of unslinging and assembling his rifle. In an appallingly short time, the big rifle was once again out, active, and being pointed at the head of a Samson power armor. This time however, the Samson would stop moving after its head was blown off.

His range indicator showed him that the other fleeing Samson was close to a mile away, out of range for his laser rangefinder. Matthias smirked grimly as he led his target before firing. Making a shot like this is what had ensured that he graduated at the top of his class.

Seeing the first Samson go down in a cloud of blood and sparks, Skai gunned his bike for the second one. Once his optics notified him he was within 800ft, he loosed his rifle and sent a 3 round burst on it's way to the PA's head.

As the second PA took a plasma round to the head he whirled around and let loose a pair of mini-missiles at the nearest target, the Titan Juicer. Taking poor aim he fired and let loose. Being within his own blast radius of a pair of plasma minimissiles the Samson was obviously trying to at least take one of the towns defenders with him if he was going down.

With the Samsons drawn away, the Glitter Boy merely took careful aim as it re-extended its firing pylons, its enormous shoulder-cannon tracking the retreating suit of power armor. As the Samson spun around for one last barrage of mini-missiles, everything within fifty yards went deaf as the Boom Gun burst to life, flinging a flechette casing towards the enemy PA at 1800 miles per hour.

Jason_Firewalker · Post by **Jason_Firewalker** » Wed Aug 27, 2008 12:44 pm

The Samson PA tried and miserably failed to dodge the incoming blast from the Glitter Boy. Taking full bore to the main body the Samson keeled over tumbling over 300 feet towards the woods in a shower of bloody sparks. With nothing left on the field of battle there was a cheer from the two Juicers near the Glitter Boy and Speedy Louis dashed over to greet his fellow chemically altered bretheren, leaving his new friends behind.

Shrugging, Matthias disassembled his rifle once more, stowed it into its case, slung it over his shoulder, and continued jogging toward the town, and the Glitter Boy. His legs weren't moving at the manic speed of a Juicer, and yet his long strides rapidly devoured the ground.

"Not a good day to wear cheap power armor, that's for sure," he thought to himself as he got within view of the closer Samson wreckage, and past it toward the town.

(EDIT: made my first paragraph intelligible. This seems to be recurring...)

The immense Titan surveys the immediate area looking for any hidden enemy targets that may be watching or taking aim. Quietly he stands there obviously cautious and expecting another attack. After several long moments he turns his attention back to the group of people amassing. And he just stands there looking at everyone as if searching for someone or something. His helmet still on, he slings his railgun onto his back. "Who's the commander in charge here?" he asks.

Haizu · Post by **Haizu** » Wed Aug 27, 2008 11:47 pm

Still swearing at himself for missing such an easy target (damn dice roller!), Skai drops his bike down into third, yanks it around, and guns it to the Titan, taking out some of his frustration on the way.

Jason_Firewalker · Post by **Jason_Firewalker** » Fri Aug 29, 2008 1:21 pm

"Commander round these parts is General Michael Williams of the Newtown Defense Force, unless your lookin for the Coalition Commander. He is in New Chillicotche. Any-hoos, I am NDF Lt. Roberts. If it interests ya, you can head to the post inside the town, two blocks in to the left. Every one of those "Wild Wagon" Bandits that ya'lls take out is worth 3500 cred for low level members and up to 20,000 cred for officers. If'n you can get the commander, Yaroth, this D-Bee bastard, well ya'lls will get 150,000 cred from the town and if you can convince the commander of CS forces, 250,000 from the CS." The Delphi Juicer started talking with a thick Lone Star accent. He saluted and began to walk away as the Juicer in Man-Killer EBA looked the Titan up and down. (OOC: Anyone with Juicer lore can roll at -15% to identify this Juicer type from the chemicals in his biocomp.)

"I am Thomas Grand. Just a Kingsdale hick looking for some cred. Who are you big guy?" The Juicer in Man-Killer said while looking at the Titan he extended his right hand for a shake. "Way you all fight, you can come to the bar I bounce at any time, first two drinks on me tonight. Got this rot-gut called 'Juier Slammer' that even slows me down."

I'm Former Lt. Brandon Hawk of the Nothern Confederation. *Extends his hand to juicer in the man-killer armor to shake it* I was trapped here several weeks ago and had heard that there were some juicers looking for some help. And as far as that coalition commander goes, I think I will pas son him. I don't think my concience would permit me to ally myself with someone who feels that non-human terrestrial inhabitants are lower life forms. So is the town looking for some additional firepower do you know? *Takes off his helmet showing his light caramel skin and shaved head. And when he talk, people here a thick accent similar to lone star accent, but significantly different.* How long have these squishies been attacking ya'll?

rhoenix · Post by **rhoenix** » Sat Aug 30, 2008 8:43 pm

Moving with deceptively swift strides up to the others, Matthias stopped, and removed his helmet, showing that he wasn't even breathing heavily. At the term "squishies" being used again, he smirked, but said nothing. When he spoke, the cadence of his voice didn't have the rushed sort of quality most Juicers had. He also had a slight trace of an undefinable accent.

"I'm Matthias, and well, my rank is my job - I happen to be good at it. I'd be interested in a bit of short-term profitable ammunition-based exercise, so I'd be willing to help out. I don't know much else about what's going on here, but just from what I've seen so far today, those idiots in the Samson armor probably need that armor to graduate from complete abject failures to moving targets. They should be encouraged to choose a better occupation."

Sliding to a halt a little way away so that he wouldn't spray everybody with dirt and gravel, Skai made his way over in time to catch what everyone had said. Flipping up his optics (think Splinter Cell :)), he said in a slight northern accent "Well if it's a job you're offering and it's got decent pay, I'm in. I could use the excercise."

Jason_Firewalker · Post by **Jason_Firewalker** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:17 am

"More or less the bandit group is broken up but there is the possability of getting a few of them here and there, so keep an eye out. Mostly right now the town is getting ready for a CS Garrison to move in and take over town defense and policing. With the announcement of the Juicer Cure, well there is a lot of attention on this fair town." Thomas Grand extended his hand to each and every one of the group that was forming. His grip was unnatrually strong for a human sized individual (OOC: SN PS of 50). Lets get in town, not safe out here. Come on tin can!" With a wave to the Glitter Boy, Thomas turned to the city gates and walked in.

DracoGuard2002 · Post by **DracoGuard2002** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 5:52 am

Wait...there's a cure for being a juicer? *starts walking into town* And now the coalition is going to be taking over the defenses and police duties? Sounds strange. *Shakes his head in disbelief* Why would anyone want to get juiced then wish to be removed? We all dies. It's just a matter of when and how. But this does explain why I heard about juicers getting together. Just not for why I thought. *Sighs* Where can a guy find an inexpensive room around here and get some food? I need to figure out where I can mae some credits, no that the CS is moving in. I don't think they will take to kindly to me being here.

rhoenix · Post by **rhoenix** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 12:22 pm

Looking a little pensive at the news, Matthias frowned. "Well, the CS probably wouldn't be very happy with me, either - and unlike a Juicer, I cannot be unmade from what I am now."

He brightened after a moment. "In the meantime though, room and board sounds good, followed by more mixing it out outside."
