Shadow Shogun and his samurai terrorist of Bushido bulls**t. (Now Closed)

Now it was time for the final boss fight, them versus the one behind all of this nonsense. Honestly Zeta could say that he was not looking forward to this, but then again that was because he was still weak from the prior fight with his group of lame ass goons. ”I’m really wondering where my dumbass brothers are right now.” He muttered with an annoyed sigh, turning to face the Shadow Shogun who seemed like someone that would prove far more difficult than his seven samurai ever were. He wondered if even him, Beta and Eta would be able to take on someone like this, but then again he did have these other two people with him as well. Suddenly their armor would begin to shift, morphing into something else entirely. ”Fuck me.” He growled as the hellish portion of the fight would likely begin now.

First they would focus upon the barrier guy, maybe to get rid of his ability to produce barriers. The attack itself was fast, almost enough so that Zeta could barely keep up with it. Still, he wouldn’t let the samurai just cut him down like some kind of kid. It appeared the barrier guy would get killed by the attack but within seconds there were somewhere else, which suggested that someone had saved them...or they could teleport. Either way that meant they would not be one person short of their little squad. ”Wow he sure messed you two up. Alpha is going to be pissed.” Zeta noted before rolling his eyes, taking notice of one of them then losing an arm. Now that did not look good at all, considering that it was their medic too.

Beta looked like the worse off of the two, with a gash bleeding from his forehead into his eyes and a leg that was most likely broken. It looked painful and explained why they weren’t walking now, instead opting to float through the air with a leg that sort of dangled there useless. Eta however seemed to just be bloodied, with what may have been a few cracked ribs. All in all both of them looked miserable, but otherwise they would be fine….unless this shogun guy killed them in the meantime. While the human was not successful in taking their weapon, it appeared they maybe they could do something about the samurai. Rapidly forming the hottest fire he could and feeling the strain from it, Zeta hurled it towards the samurai. It wasn’t meant to hit them really, but more to react to that rather than the actual attacks.

One would be a telekinetic strike from behind, aimed at the joint of the back of the knee that would likely cause them to buckle if only for a moment, this was followed by an air blade at their side. Something told him, Quinn would be fine, or she wouldn’t. Either way he was taking this shogun bastard down.

There was a lot happening rather quickly, and Cale didn't know how exactly to react to all of this. The Gold General had apparently fallen, there was a telekinetic blast thrown about, to which the Shogun reacted with by smoothly flourishing the blade behind his knee. The blast managed to knock the blade from his hand, sending it forward through his knees. Fire was going around like nobody's business and eventually the Shogun was forced to make a speedy escape, disappearing with a thin tearing noise through the air as the Shogun seemed to move out of the way of the wind blade and the full body tackle. Cale held his hand out and snapped his fingers before a barrier appeared in his hand. The small spherical energy hardened and extended up upon the Z and Y axis, creating a disc like object. Cale instinctively turned and tossed the disc like a frisbee by the blade. Of course his anticipation that the Shogun would be there was accurate, however he couldn't deny that the shogun was much faster.

The Shogun deflected the disc with his forearm, though it caused him to stand still a moment however. In that moment he clicked his tongue twice and Q7's battle armor (a.k.a Shear and Suffering) began to transform like that of a transformer robot, extending and reaching out, the snake-head of Shear appearing and lashing out with a fierce hiss before sinking it's teeth into the Shogun and then pulling, (attempting to) violently slinging Q7 right for the Shogun and his blade.

Unfortunately, everyone and their pet mouse has super speed in the gang of samurai, which means that Q7, once again, missed her target, though her goal was complete, seeing as how Cale wasn't sliced in half by the Shogun. Knowing that she wouldn't be able to catch him with how fast he was able to move, Q7 instead waited by Cale so that when or if a move was made at him again she was actually there and would attempt to catch the Shogun before he ran away like a pussy again. All of this running was starting to grate on her nerves, so to speak.

Her armor, of course, seemed to have a different idea, basically throwing her at the Shogun. Using her left arm to block any swing aimed at her, she creates a sword mid flight, trying to stab the dumb Shogun in the chest.

The telekinetic blast had managed to turn the shoguns blade into a weapon that damaged them to some extent, though the extent was the unknown. From where he stood Zeta could not tell the damage that had been done by the attack itself, though he knew that perhaps there was some damage to be done. Now came more fire, as that was sort of his skill as far as the whole thing went. Drawing more flames within his hands Zeta flung multiple fireballs towards the speedy shogun with exceptional speed. With how everyone was doing he felt like they would make some contact with then, while Beta attempted to tear the ground up beneath them to limit their footing and maybe even mess up their speed.

Q7's slash was more than powerful enough to pierce through the Shogun's armor. Despite it's inhuman durability it would seem that the Shogun was rather ill-prepared to be taken off guard such as it had. Beyond this one had to factor in not only Q7's slash, but the torrent of fireballs that were sent at him, as if it were a barrage of machine-gun blasts...just with fireballs rather than bullets. The fact that Zeta had no concern at all for Q7's well being was not a surprise as Q7 would be caught in the blasts as well. The Shogun took one blast, then another, then another while Quinn would be caught by the supressive fire as well. The Shogun made the point to repay the favor to Quinn however. With Superior skill, reflexes and ability th Shogun fired out their arm at Mach 3, likely piercing Q7's chest itself.

"With the assistance of the Guilty Spark I am far beyond such a primitive device." The Shogun said as they reached up and grabbed the blade Q7 had created and attempted to shatter it. Meanwhile the fireball barrage against Q7 and the Shogun had stopped, though the Shogun likely didn't notice it. Unfortunately this was his reckoning. Cale had produced a concave barrier up and as the fireballs collided he closed and encompassed all of the fire and all of it's heat, then compressing it and trapping it. Using B.U.L.W.A.R.K's technology and weaponizing the barrier through supercharging it's molecules he was able to keep the energy and the fire very much alive as he compressed it into a ball the size of a basket ball.

Cale ran as fast as he could while Shear and Suffering latched onto the Shogun, preventing him from moving. As Cale closed in the basketball like sphere condensed even smaller into a harshly glowing sphere the size of a penny. He losed his hand around it and made a fist before another barrier appeared over his hand, and B.U.L.W.A.R.K stressed itself to maximum capacity...and even some extra! B.U.L.W.A.R.K weaponized the outer-shell on Cale's hand as Cale drove forward to punch the area where Q7's sword pierced. Taking full advantage of the already damaged mechanical demris, Cale's hand pierced throughas his other hand came up and gripped the part of the blade. B.U.L.W.A.R.K's beeping was incessent as the device was basically screaming out it's limitations had been broken and it's own core was begining to malfunction. Cale arched his arm up into the mechanical Shogun and wedged his arm up by the core, his arm getting cut and pain shooting through the uncovered portions.

"Don't. Touch. My daughter." Cale said as he released the barrier around the energy and opening his hand, ripping his arm back and out of the Shogun. Blood and pain covered his arm as he brought a foot up and kicked the Shogun back before turning to try and tackle Q7 off off the Shogun's arm as he flew back. Hopefully that would be successful as a barrier wrapped over Cale and Q7. The explosion was glorious and there was quite the vibrant display as green energy sparked out and liquid metal flew everywhere, scalding hot like iron from a forge. The concentrated energy was released and shrapnel was thrown everywhere as a thick black smog covered the area.

After the inferno, Cale truggled to try and stand. When he failed he simply rolled over and started to scavenge the area with his good arm, looking for B.U.L.W.A.R.K, as his beeps had gone silent.

"Q7!? Are you okay!? Everyone!? Where's B.U.L.W.A.R.K!? Help me find him!" Cale asked as his frantic work began to search for his ally, hoping everyone could assist him in this task. Meanwhile the Shogun's mechanical skeleton remained on the ground in a slouched position.

Q7 got to see Cale's manly side finally, having been demanding it for what feels like ten years at this point. Moving on, she gets tackled to the ground by Cale, seeing as how she was trying to get away once the first fireball came in, but her armor, for some reason, decided to hold onto the shogun instead of letting go and allowing her to get some distance. Then again, it wasn't her armor, but Cale's, and as such she didn't have as much control over it as she would have liked.

Moving on again, the shogun died in a very horrible and graphic that I am far too lazy to even attempt to type how Q7 reacts to it. Q7 does, however, join the search for Bulwark, since he was family too and that was something you had to take care of, or so said her programming. She stands up and pulls up random bits of metal and other scrap until she finds Bulwark under what was left of a car door. Q7 carefully picks him up before turning to Cale and calling out. "Cale, I found him. He needs repair."

Considering the overwhelming power of the samurai, the only thing Zeta could do really was keep them from killing all of them but that was a difficult task when his fire appeared to be doing nothing against them. Considering the defensive capabilities of the female robot, well he was making a massive assumption they would not be harmed within the fire but then again that may not entirely be the case. It was only an assumption he was making really, but then again he did not have time to make sure everything was alright when there was a mach 3 moving smurai that could kill them all moving around. It did not appear that his fireballs would do the damage however but the samurai themselves, seemingly throwing the barrier dude into some manner of rage. "Daughter? I'm not asking that question." Zeta muttered as they appeared to make use of his fire to create a rather intimidating looking attack, one likely meant to eradicate the samurai.

With the attack being performed, perhaps Zeya could take a moment to rest considering that he felt like he had been hit by a car. Considering how damaged his siblings were, well they would likely have not disagreed with wanting the fight to be over either. An explosion would burst outwards from the Shogun, though a near invisible shield protected him from the attack that would have likely otherwise done some manner of damage. Zeta turned to Beta giving a silent thanks but they appeared to be confused by the sudden defense. If he hadn't made the barrier then there was only one person that could have done something like that and it was....likely Alpha. Always the center of trouble aren't you Aaron. The voice chimed within his head as his eyes darted about looking for the source of it and he did eventually find it. As always he had a way of seemingly appearing from nowhere, perhaps a special talent of Alpha or maybe he was not as observant.

Even with their mask on he could tell they were looking over him with a dire gaze. "Um...Alpha this is totally what it looks like." Zeta started trying to explain himself but in the end he really didn't have anything to say.

"So it seems." Alpha noted before turning their attention towards Beta and Eta who seemed to be somewhat surprised by their Alpha's sudden appearance or perhaps they were just finally resting. "Regardless of what's happening you won't be part of it any longer. You're coming with me."
