melodiesoflife | Event || The Empire Strikes Back

Mogdelina refused to leave the city, not when it needed help the most! She was strong, she could fight, she had a strong hero... even if he was kind of a jerk. But that didn't matter right now! They were going to defend Aqures Ixen!

Or, well, she'd wanted to fight with him, but he told her she'd be better served running messages for the military. And that she'd slow him down. Hmph! Showed what he knew. Still, she'd be the best darn messenger there was, and if the imperials tried to mess with her? Bam! Pow! She'd show them! Yeah...

That's what she was thinking as she came upon the Mognet Office -- and saw that it was under attack! Surprised for only a second, she was determined to fight back and prove she was a hero too!

"KUPOOOO!" She withdrew her knife and charged at the nearest drone.

Kopula was fighting as well, his blade glinted off the light as he brought it down on the same drone that Mogdelina had charged. He smiled at her turning so that they could flank another Moogle Killer.

"HEYA!"

The moogle seemed skilled with his sword but it still took a few hits to take down any of the drones. They were fast and at times impossible to see.

"Behind you KUPO!"

Mogdelina didn't expect the sudden help.

"I had that one!" she protested, feeling suddenly defensive that she should need to be rescued. It was short-lived, of course, as Kopula warned her of the other drone. She gasped and ducked, rolling out of the way and just dodging the metal monstrosity's attack.

"I... th-thanks!" she managed.

Kopula nodded holding his sword in front of him. He didn't care if she had it because he wanted to send these things down quickly. It was a fight and he wasn't going to give the moogle killers any chance to hurt his friends and fellow moogles.

He brought his blade up again as the moogle killer turned and arched back towards them.

"I'll go towards it's left, you it's right kupo. We can hit it from the sky." Or at least he hoped and with that instruction in place he fluttered to the left bringing his sword down hard on the metal machine.

"Alright!" It sounded like as solid a plan as they could make in the thick of things. Mogdelina mirrored Kopula to the right, rolling airborne to dodge another attack before jamming her knife up under the drone's wing.

Fluttering hard, she dragged the blade forward before yanking it out and leaving a large gash behind. Even with wings still attached, taking hits there from above and below destabilized the drone just enough to have it begin spinning.

Kopula felt more comfortable with another moogle behind him. He moved forward, his blade glinting in the soft light as rain pattered against the hard ground. It was a tough battle and a small part of him wished that he had his hero here to help. It had been his choice to leave her in another’s care and he can only pray that she was safe.

His thoughts distracted him and in that moment a moogle killer charged forward striking Kopula to the ground. He looked up at the machine, reaching for his blade with a small hand and then throwing his knife up as the moogle killer moved in for the kill. It lodged into its front, sparks flying as water hit frayed wires.

Kopula slowly rose, fetching his knife before moving back into position. He had to stay focused.

Minako had been busy doing other things so left Artemis to fight crime in his little hero costume; much to his dismay. As he stood there cape flowing behind him, he wished others wouldn't see this, but sadly that was not to be.

With an small knife in his furry little paw; the knife that his Hero had given him that went with her ninja job he ran forward, seeing if the other needed any help.

"Fighting to help protect this place as well, kupo?" He spoke as he charged close to the drone adding to the strike that was already given.

Mogdelina didn't expect the sudden help.

"I had that one!" she protested, feeling suddenly defensive that she should need to be rescued. It was short-lived, of course, as Kopula warned her of the other drone. She gasped and ducked, rolling out of the way and just dodging the metal monstrosity's attack.

"I... th-thanks!" she managed.

Artemis wished he could get changed, but first things first there had been many other drones that needed to get taken care of first. "Your welcome, though don't think you can take on one of these alone, not even I could at my young age, kupo" he spoke as he started to take steps backwards, keeping his eyes on the others, trying his best to dodge when they attacked and swiping when he had the chance.

"Lets work as a team, okay?"

Artemis was right. And in his little cape, he did sort of look like a little hero. Reconsidering, Mogdelina nodded.

"Alright, kupo." It would be safer this way. Plus, they could take out the drones faster if they worked together. Seeing another one headed their way, Mogdelina readied her knife. "You go right, I'll go left?"

He simply nodded slightly, gripping his little knife in his furry little paws. "Alright, that seems like a decent enough plan. Let;s do this."

As he spoke those words he started to make sure he went the way he had been told to and headed right.

Mogdelina sprang forward again with her high-pitched moogle battlecry, fluttering head-on toward the drone. They were going to take it down -- they were going to fight these things and save their friends! Just like heroes!

She banked to the right as the drone fired, then came in again to land on it, bringing her knife down hard against its hull.

Artemis kept close, attacking when he needed to with his little blade, trying his best to find the weak points that were on the machines or whatever they were. As they tried to attack again, he flew to the left before going in for a stab, aiming at a joint.

"I think I got it, kupo! I could be wrong though."

The drone shook hard as Artemis stabbed into a wing joint.

"Great!" Mogdelina chirped as she looked up, then gasped as she felt the drone tilt. Its outboard flap joint was smoking, jammed with the damage from Artemis' knife. "Look out!"

Knives were good weapons for moogles. They were compact, light, and if well made could withstand a great deal of use. Few of the moogles in the city had also made arrangements for armor as well though.

As Mogdelina charged at the drone, another moogle wearing a tiny leather chest protector and a cloth hood dropped down from above, stabbing her own knife into its mechanisms.

"Kupo!" Bonnie's own attack wasn't enough to break it, but she managed to throw it off balance and leave it open to a follow through!

"Ah -- !" Mogdelina hadn't expected the sudden aerial assist. But she didn't let her surprise stop her for more than a second when she saw the perfect opening it left her.

"Kyaa!" She leaped forward and jammed her blade into the joints of a wing, wedging it apart from the drone body. With a hard yank, she sliced out from the side, leaving a gaping slash with the wing barely usable. The drone began to spark and smoke as it drifted into an uncontrolled spin.

Bonnie had learned her lesson at this point. She was better at stabbing these things without getting her knife stuck and she certainly knew to jump off before they started spinning too badly. The garbage can from earlier would have been lesson enough.

She held out her paw just before she jumped, "With me, kupo!" She didn't quite wait for Mogdelina to take her paw, reaching out to grab the other moogle and leaped away from the crashing drone!

Mogdelina clasped Bonnie's paw in hers and jumped, squeezing tight so they didn't get separated. Her wings flapped as hard as they could to get out of range as the drone sputtered, shook, and spiraled down until it crashed into a heap against the Mognet building.

She tried to catch her breath, watching the sparking mess until it stilled. "We got it!"

A single moogle could lift themselves in flight, and even then just so. It often looked more cute than useful. With two working in unison though their combined wing strength was actually enough to carry them a decent distance and even give them a smooth landing out of this situation.

Bonnie grinned as she watched the machine crash and as Mogdelina confirmed the kill she grinned and put her paw up for a high five!

Mogdelina joyfully slapped her paw against Bonnie's.

"We did it!" she exclaimed. "We really did it!"

She felt exhilarated. She'd protected her home, just like the heroes the crystal had summoned. She was just like them now, a hero.

Bonnie giggled and hopped around a few times.

"Yeah! I knew we could! This'll Spencer we can too be Heroes!" She waved her knife around in the air, feeling very proud of herself at the moment and not quite noticing how she namedropped Sephiroth's own companion.

"Come on. There's more of them out there. Let's defend our home!" Some eagerness is good, but perhaps she was getting a little reckless.

In between running messages, Vincent has been patrolling--and with the moogle killers now active, chasing after Kopula who was his temporary companion. Somehow he wasn't surprised that the Mognet office was attacked. He also recognized the moogle who had shouted.

Had Albel sent her away for protection, or because his ego wouldn't let her join him? It did not matter to Vincent, but it did matter that he help out. Kopula was likely nearby as well; he simply hoped Ophelia was remaining safe as she could be, with Zelda.

"Incoming Friendly." He wasn't sure if any in Avalanche had ever seen him raise his voice. It was still deep and low tones, but pitched to be heard over the chaos as he warned Mogdelina she now had back-up. Carefully taking aim as he tried to track the moogle-killers, to give her a clear-path. The crack of gun-fire, this time from an ally, added a staccato beat to the noises around them.

Mogdelina turned with some surprise to hear a familiar voice as the drone smoked and sputtered in a heap to the ground.

"Vincent, kupo!" she chirped happily, thrilled to see him, before stabbing the drone one more time for good measure. Now there was a hero -- and a nice person! Sigh. Ophelia was so lucky.

"Alright!" With a tiny fist clenched in renewed vigor, Mogdelina nodded and readied her weapon once more. Following Vincent's shots, she bounded, flipped, and flapped her way from target to target, ripping her knife through the holes his bullets left.

Oh good, then he wasn't going to have to explain what he was doing. Not that any of the moogles dealing with this mess had needed it so far. But there had been several rookie training exercises he could still remember, where you told someone to 'duck' and they just looked around like idiots. Situational awareness was good.

It wasn't easy, as these machines had been designed to combat moogles after all. They were fast, and agile, and Vincent was keenly aware of the need to make every shot count. Carefully picking his shots, taking slightly longer to be certain it was what he wanted. There was little room for error, even with other moogles and heroes helping out.]

Mogdelina talked big, and wanted to be a fighter. But the truth was, she was fairly inexperienced, teaching herself the basics and otherwise remaining untested. And why would she be? Things had been relatively peaceful in the world until the crystallization started and Heroes of Light started popping up. And now this.

This was her proving grounds. And she was thankful Vincent was helping. Even if she stumbled or missed, or was somehow in the way, she trusted him not to accidentally shoot her. He was a Hero of Light.

With another battle cry, she wedged her knife into another bullet hole and tore at it, ripping the drone further open.
