The Mana-Verse

[Quickman]

((Yeah, Prof's not really doing a whole lot right now.  Also, he's still injured.  His hands won't be healed until after Heimdal.  He's short and weak.  Prime target material.  And if Freeze Master has cold iron on him... ))

[Sakura Leic]

(Honestly doubt he would have Cold Iron on him, his attacks are all Ice.)

[Sapphire Knight]

[Which seems more plausible? Prof getting frozen and Shuu getting PISSED, or Shuu getting in the way of the attack, getting frozen instead, and Hellhound having to begrudgingly come out to save him?]

[Sakura Leic]

(The second one.)

[Quickman]

((With Prof's behavior before, him getting into a situation where he is frozen is plausible.  He doesn't think ahead before rushing out, aside from that he has a plan and thinks he has the element of surprise.  The second one is equally as plausible for the same reason; Prof gets himself in a dangerous situation.))

Pema dashed towards the tornado and leapt in the air.

"Salem, fly!" She yelled and perched herself horizontally on the staff. Like a witch, she glided through the air, maneuvering around freely without the deep patches of snow interfering with versatility.

She soared around the tornado, searching for an accurate point to hit all the Chevals at once. Racing through the wind, Pema held onto the top of her hat, maintaining her focus... and the hat's position. Soon, she found her chance.

"Pew! Pew! Pew!" Pema gestured her right hand into a "gun", as she fired three large Ice Blasts from her staff. The Icy barrage collided with the Chevals within Fxeni's tornado, instantaneously creating an ice sculpture, trapping them inside.

Pema descended from the sky and landed on her feet.

"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" She raised the staff above her head and forcefully jammed the bottom into the ground, in Lord of the Rings-esque fashion.

A large geyser of flames erupted through the sculpture, creating a sudden explosion. Particles of ice, metal and snow glittered the sky, illuminated with the bright red glow from the fiery combustion.

[Sakura Leic]

(And I think when Prof or Shuu gets frozen I'll have Sakura follow up with a Fire elemental Kuuenzan on Freezeman, which I'll probably call Fire Pinwheel to differentiate it.  Calien is probably going to go after Blizzardman on the hijacked Cheval.)

[Quickman]

((Maybe they should both get frozen! ))

[Sakura Leic]

(Also very plausible.)

[Sapphire Knight]

[Sakura, you wanted me to leave one of the Joes for Calien? Or just not explode all of them?]

[Sakura Leic]

(I don't need a Joe I just need a functioning Cheval/Motorcycle.)

[Sapphire Knight]

[Then you can have the once Shuu decapitated. |D]

Shuu almost lost his focus from Pema's display of magical prowess. "My turn to bring an end to this!" He called out, swinging his sword down, calling lightning to descend and almost all of the Joes that were still on the attack, making them all explode. "Now... We can focus on those two."

[Sakura Leic]

Calien arrived at Sakura and the Prof's hiding place which Sakura was confused about.

"<Daddy?>" Sakura asked in the language only they understood "<What are you doing here?>"

"<I have an idea, I just need that Cheval.>" Calien replied "<I might need Shuu's Unicorn or Tiger too.  I want to get to that Spinning one over there, and I think I need you guys to distract the frozen one over there.>"

"<Gotcha.>" Sakura nodded as she came out of her hiding place "Shuu I need Grandi or Susanoo.  I can't explain why but they should know what to do when the time comes, we need to keep the attention of the Frozen one if not both of them."

[Quickman]

((Will respond later.  Got some things to do.))

[Sapphire Knight]

Shuu nodded, tossing the small stone tablet that Grani was in to Calien. "Grani! Obey him as if he were me!" He called Grani's tablet glowing and his voice saying something as a confirmation.

[Sakura Leic]

Calien caught it and waited until he could make his move.

[Dr. Wily II]

Both Freeze Master and Blizzard Master jumped a few steps back away from Riagan, though for Blizzard Master, it might have been rolling.

"What now Freeze? They somehow defeated all the Cheval Joes with little effort..."

Freeze Master was clearly twitching. He scanned the advancing groups of heroes, and noticed one of them was slightly lagging behind.

"FREEZZZZZZZE! You continue with your Blizzard Attack... Since going after the so-called Guardian was a mistake... I'LL PICK OFF THE WEAKEST ONE!!"

Freeze Master charged up a large Freeze Cracker, and fired it off at the Prof, while Blizzard Master spun in place again and bombarded the rest with his Blizzard Attack.

[Sapphire Knight]

Shuu's eyes widened at the sight of the giant freeze cracker heading in the direction of his group, along with somehow hearing the word 'weakest' over the storm. He knew exactly who the target was: the Professor. Instinctively, he dropped Susanoo and rushed to try to keep the crippled hobgoblin alchemist from getting frozen. His intent was to push the Prof out of the way of the attack, but, instead, found himself intercepting it instead... With himself.

[Dr. Wily II]

(Come on out from behind the frozen Shuu, Prof~ IMMA FREEZE JOO TOO )

[Sakura Leic]

(Or use some bullshit to say the blast was too close and froze the Prof too. )

[Quickman]

The Professor was thrown out of the way.  Getting to his feet, he turned and saw Shuu standing frozen. "Shoe!"

Running out from behind the frozen body, he stood in front of it and frantically dug through his bag for something to thaw the ice. "I have, I have something, I have something that could work, if, if, if I could find it..."

((Sorry, I was getting dinner and spending quality time with Mabel.))

[Dr. Wily II]

(No worries, time for the climax!)

Freeze Master laughed as he saw Shuu frozen solid, and the Prof trying desperately to help.

"Your mistake! You will now join your ally! FREEZZZZZZZZZZZZE!!"

Freeze Master charged up another large Freeze Cracker, and fired it directly at the Prof. Blizzard Master increased his bombardment to hold the other heroes back.

[Quickman]

The Professor barely heard the warning, and only turned around when he felt the sudden gust.  By then, it was too late and he was frozen in place.

((Back to dinner and cuddle time!))

[Dr. Wily II]

(And now... Mostly one-sided battle! )

Freeze Master laughed even louder, seeing the Prof frozen.

"And to think you all were dangerous! More like just meddling annoyances! You all will FREEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZE!!"

[Sapphire Knight]

[Hmm... Should Hellhound possess Shuu, or just come out and complain about the cold before going on the attack?]
