From his tattered robe, Tangent's orb rises. It, floating in the air, issues a bright red flash. It floats higher into the sky, out of the reach of most.

Tangent turns. Only one eye still glows that unnatural red. His robe, ripped in numerous places, has a dull red light issuing from it. Occasionally, one of his chaos links breaks orbit and crashes into the ground. His wings, now torn into numerous, often unconnected, peices, still somehow act as a whole. His scythe, broken in two in the middle of it's blade, it held in place by a dull red force.

Tangent-
class: re-united soul
*soul trigger: counterattack; any skill used on Tangent is used on it's user
*link strike: deals moderate non-elemental damage

hp: 45000


Orb-

hp: 200000


Oh, and if the orb dies, Tangent dies. Sorta.

Time to take things up a notch...BTW, how many forms does Tangent have anyway?!?!? It's like we're fighting the final boss in Final Fantasy X-2...O_o

Somewhere, deep inside L_G's computer...
A powerful force dwells...
She is linked to the brother...if something should happen, she will take over...
She is the one!
She is...NADIA!
"My brother has fallen...I must help him!" says Nadia, awakened by an upset in the elemental balance. She wakes up, gets dressed, and grabs a Backup Disk.
Nadia found Backup Disk!
Nadia sighs. "I was afraid to do this...very bad things could happen if the uplink goes wrong...but heck, bad stuff is about to happen anyway. What do we have to lose?"
'Your life.'
"Wh-What???" Nadia whirled around, looking for the source of the voice. I sounded familiar...but it couldn't be, they died years ago...
"It was probably the wind," Nadia says to herself. "Now then..." Nadia picked up the mouse, and clicked on the last place L_G went: Jazz 2 Online Community Forums.

POIT! Nadia appears out of thin air next to Xion.
"Don't be alarmed, I'm here to help," says Nadia, seeing the looks of suprise on evrryone's face. She looks down, and sees the dead L_G. "Oh, Lem_Gambino...my dear brother..."
She kneels down next to her fallen sibling, tears welling in her eyes. However, her face turns from sorrow to determination, as she reaches into her pocket and takes out the backup disk...
"I only have one shot at this...It'd better count!"
Nadia uses Backup Disk!
"UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START!" Nadia chants.
'Tears of sorrow, Heart's loving light,
Bring us to our full power, so we may do what's right!'
'RELEASE!!' <---- Too much Cardcaptor Sakura

There's a bright flash of light. Nadia disappears, but reappears...along with L_G.
'Nadia, thank you...I owe you big time!'
'No problem. Just don't get yourself killed again, you know how hard it is to make those disks...'
'Don't worry about it. Right now, let's kick the plaster out of this guy!'

L_G has become Backup L_G!
Nadia has become Backup Nadia! They'll keep the 'Backup' name until the battle ends.

Backup L_G: 7000/7000 HP, 999/999 MP, 100% Overdrive
Backup Nadia: 7000/7000 HP, 999/999 MP, 100% Overdrive

Backup Nadia equips Yesgauntlet. Yesgauntlet has Silenceproof, Stunproof, Maintainence(sp?) and Auto-Raise.
Backup Nadia is now Auto-Raised. It cannot be dispelled, and will revive Nadia once.
Backup Nadia equips the Summoner Dressphere. Nadia is now a Summoner!
Backup Nadia casts Unicorn! All allies have 1200 HP restored (including Xion and his group), and all negative status effects are removed.
Backup L_G uses Gunslinger! Orb takes 3259 HP damage.
Backup L_G defends.
Goku continues charging up. 3 turns left.
Bulla defends.
Trunks uses Buster Cannon 2 times!
Orb takes 2473 HP damage.
Orb takes 2534 HP damage.

Goku: 7000/7900 HP, 234/250 MP, 5% Overdrive
Trunks: 6000/6000 HP, 210/230 MP, 30% Overdrive
Bulla: 4600/4600 HP, 300/300 MP, 90% Overdrive
Backup L_G: 7000/7000 HP, 999/999 MP, 0% Overdrive
Backup Nadia: 7000/7000 HP, 987/999 MP, 100% Overdrive

Tangent was only suppost to, at first, have two forms. But then Xion came and exploited the bad wording of one of my abilities, and did so twice in a row.
And annoyed me by putting words in my mouth.

The dull red glow shaping Tangent shoots out, and his body crumples. The glow glides forwards, and enters Backup Nadia! Tangent used Invade Mind!

Backup Nadia uses Grand Summon!
Backup Nadia summons Lavos!
Lavos shoots a storm of spines into the air!

Backup Lem_Gambino takes 6000 damage!
Trunks takes 6400 damage!
Trunks is dead (and crispy)!
Bulla takes 5600 damage!
Bulla is dead (and crispy)!
Goku takes 6700 damage!
Rach takes 5600 damage!
Rach is dead (and crispy)!
Xion would have taken 6400 damage, but that damage is reflected to Backup Nadia!
Soala takes 6500 damage!
Soala is dead (and crispy)!
Rain takes 5200 damage!
Rain is dead (and crispy)!
Backup Nadia's overdrive meter is now at 0%.

Tangent's energy returns to it's former body, and Tangent gets up.

The Orb flares, and the burst of red flame spirals into a void. From it, comes a burst of radio energy, short but fierce. Orb uses skill call, and from it uses Radiating Breaker!

Backup Lem_Gambino takes 1200 damage!
Backup Lem_Gambino is dead (and crispy)!
Goku takes 1500 damage!
Goku is dead (and crispy)!
Backup Nadia takes 1200 damage!
Backup Nadia is dead (and crispy)!
Xion would have taken 1300 damage, but that damage is reflected to the Orb!

The orb flares, and the energy of the attacks is directed to Tangent.
Tangent is healed 9566 HP!

Oh, I forgot to post the Orb's inventory-

shard of tears x 10- powerful healing item
shard of fear x 5 - makes target invincible for this turn and next turn
And, FYI, ordinary items have no effect on Orb

And, to give you an idea, since the start of the battle my policy was make it harder the more allies the enemy calls in. Just though you should know.

Tangent- HP: 45000/45000, MP: 300/500 Overdrive: 10%
Orb- HP: 190434/200000 MP: 9500/10000 Overdrive: 8%

Oh, and it might be helpful to know this-
Tangent is now like a half ghost. He is strong against solid types of magic like earth, steel and non-elemental but weak against fire. The orb, owing to it's altitude, is weak against wind but strong against fire and immune to earth.

And, as a final final note, Tangent is unable to be affected by his 'project' skills.

EDIT- @XION: what does splash casting mean? It affects everyone? It affects nearby people?

"When will you people learn." A dark voice emits from nowhere.

Iso has entered the battle.

Iso has the Murasame equipped.

Iso uses a slash attack on Orb
Orb takes 38,919 damage.
Iso uses scout.
Iso uses MP Buster on Xion.
Xion's mp is 0'd
Iso grabs L_G's body and teleports.

The orb flares, and the energy of the attacks is directed to Tangent.
Tangent is healed 38919 HP!

Orb is unable to act!

Tangent attacks three times!
Xion takes 1100 damage!
Xion takes 980 damage!
Xion takes 1000 damage!
Xion is dead (and crispy)!

The orb lowers from the sky, and enters Tangent's robe. Tangent, isofar as can be told, smirks and teleports away.

It targets units nearby. Tangent's Chaos Iron, as it stood in the previous battle, would have acted against these spells. However, Illusionist abilities do not target the unit directly and thusly anti-magic abilities (Return Magic, for example) have no effect since it is only affective on single target than multi target.


And you seem to have forgotten something: Rach was still covering me. So Rach is nice and crispy, rather than me.

"Rach! Rach!" Xion says, frantically. He holds Rach's limp body as he rips a portal. "You need rest. Go." Xion says, assisting Rach to the portal. Rach flops in, and the portal closes. Rach has left the feild of Battle!


Xion uses Ether!
Xion gains 800 MP!
Xion Renerates 10MP!

Soala uses Quicken!
Xion acts now!
Soala Regenerates 10MP!

Xion uses Ether!
Xion gains 800MP!
Xion Regenerates 10MP!

Rain uses Haste!
Xion has become Hasted!
Rain regenerates 10 MP!

Current Stats of units...

Soala: 1000/1000HP, 994/1250MP, 4/10JP
Rain: 1300/1300HP, 656/800MP, 3/10JP
Xion: 1400/2560HP, 1620/2700MP, 6/10JP

Note: I did a little retooling with the math, since I kinda messed up before. Maxes are the exact same.

You loose. Rach died before the spell hit you. Unless cover continues working it the coverer is dead, which is just stupid.

It covers untill it's the unit's turn again. Since it still hasn't been Rach's turn untill now, as long as she had a breath she covered for me and took the huge hit.


And thanks for the idea of kill. *grin* I just need a way to amp my Wind power via weaponry.

So, basically, the corpse of Rach was floating around and getting in the way of giant spines falling from the sky at terminal velocity which are capable of destroying cities and exploding very big?

Rach was under rubble, but when the Cover comes into effect the covered and Rach would switch places instantaneously and momentarially. So to answer your question, yes.

*sigh*... new plan.

The Orb flares, and the burst of red flame spirals into a void. The world shudders; lines of energy, forming a perfect grid, blink in and out of existance. Strange flames of white energy spread around the battlefield. The pyrotechnics fade away.
Orb used skill call, and from it used Gridfire!
Soala takes 2500 damage!
Soala is dead (and crispy)!
Rain takes 2300 damage!
Rain is dead (and crispy)!
Xion would have taken 2400 damage, but that damage is reflected to the Orb!

Tangent attacks three times!
Xion takes 1000 damage!
Xion takes 1100 damage!
Xion takes 900 damage!
Xion is dead (and crispy)!

The orb lowers from the sky, and enters Tangent's robe. Tangent, isofar as can be told, smirks and teleports away.

What excuse do you have this time to prolong your death?

Xion coughs, then rips out via a portal.

You mean an alternate Xion?

Xion's a planeswalker. You seriously think that he will just lie down and die? Nope. He ripped out. He fleed...








...for the time being.


Timer untill my return: Post 275 shall be my return.

The only people who run away when defeated are bosses.

So...until then....

What's up?

Believe me, I'll be your worst nightmare.


I figured out my strategy. Strato knows my strategy. You have untill post 275 to have your "fun"

Then I come in...And it won't be pretty.

I have my strategy planned out.

Oh, and Row_Odin? If you are here, this is your chance to join.

RANDOMTACKLEMANASHACKLE!

SCANNER SOMETHING ERROR HAPPENS!

WHAT IS THIS LIFE? IT'S KIND OF CRAP!

Oh, and Xion?
It might be important to note that the Orb's elemental weaknesses and strengths are determined by where it is. Remember how I said 'The orb, owing to it's altitude, is weak against wind but strong against fire and immune to earth.'?

so I just have to nail it when it's at it's peak. Props, my man.

I also have a plan for if you really annoy me.

Don't worry, I'll annoy you soon enough.

Time remaining: 13 posts.

Then prepare to be annoyed in turn.

Man, I go to sleep, and the whole world is in chaos!

"What? NO!" Nadia calls out, but it's too late, Iso abducts L_G, and the Orb blasts everyone into a million pieces, then disappears. Nadia looks around the battlefield, seeing the dead bodies of some of Xion's clanmates, and the bodies of some of earth's greatest protectors, the Z-Fighters
"No one deserved this..." Nadia began, tears welling in her eyes. "NO ONE!!!!"
Nadia Overdrive Gauge fills completly!
"THESE PEOPLE SHALL BE AVENGED! BY THIS I SWEAR, I WILL SAVE THIS WORLD AND DESTROY ALL THOSE WHO THREATEN IT!!!!!"
Nadia's emotion's reach a fever pitch! Nadia has become Super Kuncklehead 1!!!
Nadia floats in the air, her power aura glwing around her, and her black hair suddenly turned yellow. "Time for revenge," she says, in a grim tone. Nadia lets out a mighty scream, tearing a hole between dimensions. She enters the hole and begins searching for her brother...

Vegeta senses a massive power level! "What...was...that???" he stutters.

Nadia died. A while ago. Unless Nadia and Backup Nadia are different people...

And Iso takes L_G after he dies, not before.

I assume they are.

A small portal rips, and Xion's face pokes out to obsurve the fight. As soon as he looked, he ducks back and lets the portal close.

*shakes fist*

"Uh-oh," says Kamikura, suddenly awake. "Did you feel that, Tracy?"
Tracy, who was sleeping next to Kamikura, said in a drowsy tone," Yeah, and I don't like it," She rolls and sits up, rubbing her eyes. "Guess our lazy time is over, huh?"
"Yeah," says Kamikura, his anger rising. L_G had died many times in the past, and this was just overdoing it...

L_G and Nadia wake up. Everywhere, was far as the eye could see, there was darkness. L_G swore, hitting the hard ground with his fist. "For the love of carp!" he says angrily, looking around for Nadia. She wasn't far away, and she too was angry. "I can't believe we failed..." she said between sobs.
"It's not over yet!" says L_G in a calmer tone, but still angry, "Once the Interceptor II is finished, Strato and the rest of hia army are done for! I've had enough of this. We're going to live our life without those guys breathing down our necks, and aren't going to stop us." L_G helps his sister up.
"Well, we were wondering when you two were going to show up."
L_G and Nadia trun around and see Jeanie, who has a happy look on her face. "The ship is this way," says Jeanit pointing into the darkness, "Follow me and stay close," she says as she opens up a portal to Animenia's Shadow Realm...

Back on the moon of another planet, a new fortress stands. It was under construction from the time the other went offline. It is under the command of Tangent, Rspss Fr's right-hand... ghost. It is currently constructing a secret device that will give the Peep Army and immense avantage.

Tangent walks across a catewalk above the construction bay. Far below, pounding autohammers mark the mass-production of guns and missles. Going further, Tangent crosses over a larger area, with sounds of welders and giant autohammers drifting from below, where fighters and corvettes are made. Going to the opposite end of this factory, Tangent stops. From below, teams of engineers drift across the floors and skilled workers make electronics. A large pylon is under construction, as large as three fighers. This device, once completed and hooked up to a power plant, can prevent any kind of interdimensional travel in the entire universe.

Pylon completion: 50%

Xion, resting in a bed within his Gran Da Val base, mumbles something. Limping to get up, he types a few things on his computer. "Oh...my...god." Xion says, then winces from a wound on his right arm.

"Something must be done about this." Xion says, as a planal camera watches the ghost obsurver. A few more ticks in his computer he finds the orb, far away from Tangent's grasp.


"This...gives me an idea." Xion says, reaching in his pocket. He pulls out three objects: a swirling blue stone, a three-stringed harp, and a rod of sorts. "This should give me the firepower to take down that orb...and then Tangent with it."

...and the inhabitants of Animenia's Shadow Realm are moved from their home into the Jazz 2 Online Forums' Shadow Realm. Profeesor Jeff returns, exhausted. "I couldn't find them," he says, "So I left them a note."
L_G shakes his head. "They'll find it, no doubt. Even they aren't stupid enough to find THAT spell."

Meanwhile, a pen with a written note next to it is taped to the TV screen. This pen contains the multiverse's last hope: an extremely powerful spell to end all spells!

Millenium Pen- Bestows Polthole when equipped.
Plothole- Allows interdimensional travel, regardless of any magical, technologcal or natural forces prohibiting it. Unblockable. Darnit, there are no Plotholes! - Dave MP Cost: 100

You really think that will work?
With you having had a shield in the interceptor that could block all magic, including a spell that can pierce shields that block all magic?
And you think you can just make a way past the pylon, when I could not get past your noshield with a super spell of my own?

two posts remain.

Xion readies himself, then rips a portal.

"No matter how near or far, a planeswalker must not be stopped. By any means nesiccary." Xion sighs. Then he equips his three items before going after the orb.

It may work, it may not work. The worst thing it can do is rip someone to shreds.

Plothole's Accuracy: Coin flip. Heads: Arrive at destination. Tails: DEATH.

I'm so evil. >=) Also, Noshield only lasts for a few moments, else it starts overheating the ship's engines. Did you really think I'd have complete invulnerablity without a glaring weakness?

Originally Posted by Lem_Gambino

I rest my case.

And as for the glaring weakness, that didn't matter because the spell would fire before the shield went down anyway. However, you can use this spell whenever you want.

...Blargh. I'm young and naive, and I will try not to let this happen again in the future.

Noshield- Blocks any enemy spell. Only lasts for a short time. MP: Same as spell being used. She canna take anymore 'o this! -Scotty

That still isn't going to change the fact that you basically one-upped me by again casually doing something that made the biggest thing I was doing at the time impossible.

...Now I'm confused...

Kamikura and Tracy train for battle by beating up enemies in random battles.
Time seems to have stopped, literally, because his army of ships isn't moving.
Time 'till Archie starts blowing stuff up: N/A
Vegeta has made 100 zenny. Goal: 34,712 zenny
Interceptor II progress: 10%. L_G works fast.
Pawn is still waiting for reinforcements.
Ozzie and Olivia are asleep.
Some random person burps.
I am lazy.

Oh nothing.

Don't worry, I'll figure it out someday. Someday. I'm just slow at these kinds of things. 9_9 Anyway...

Kamikura and Tracy defeat a Pink Dragon! They each receive 1834 exp. and 2000 zenny.
"Hey, what's this?" says Kamikura, noticing something dropped by the dragon. Kamikura found the Pink Dress Dressphere!
Kamikura sweatdrops. "Out of all the items L_G put into this world, this has got to bwe the strangest," he says.
Tracy examines the sphere. "It seems to teach Pink Magic," says Tracy.
"Do you know anything about Pink Magic?"
"Not a lot. It's supposed to charm enemies and stuff."
"*evil grin* Let's send it to L_G!"
*shrugs* "Why not?"
Tracy casts Plothole. A black hole appears on the ground.
"Here goes..." Tracy tosses in the sphere.
Coin Flip time! Please Note: I'm being complety honest on all of the coin flips.
Tails. =O
The sphere gets shot back out, and hits Kamikura in the face. "Stupid spell...I want a do-over!" he complains. Tracy laughs. The hole closes.
"Ah, whatever. Let's do some more training."
