THIS WILL BE SET UP BY APPOINTMENT
|
|
|
|
Upon returning to the SILVER demense, the air is thick with the scent of ozone and rich in the sound of thunder. You see dozens of Thunder Force officers standing around, dumbfoundedly staring up at the sky. As are several people on the steps to the courthouse. And pretty much every prisoner in the yard.
|
|
|
|
(NOTICE Roll)
|
|
- You see one MASSIVE dark storm cloud looming overhead, but not a drop of rain
|
|
- You see flashes of lightning every second, paired with a clap of thunder
|
|
- You see someone's shadowy outline in those clouds with every clap & bolt
|
|
|
|
Second Commander Valeos approaches with a smile. "Good to see you again, Kings of Kings. I assume you are here for your challenge?"
|
|
|
|
*WHAT IS THAT*
|
|
Valeos laughs a little and casually points into the sky. "THAT would be Fulmo. He advised us this morning he would be doing some... warm-ups before his challenge today. Speaking of which, I'm under orders to alert him when you arrive, so if you'll excuse me..."
|
|
|
|
He steps away and kneels down, his body crackles with electricity, and he LEAPS into the air. He lands on top of the Thunder Force office, then takes another grand leap to the top of the courthouse's highest flagpole, and makes a mighty third leap straight into the sky.
|
|
|
|
You get few moments of silence, before a bolt of lightning strikes the ground a few yards from you. The bolt dissipates as quickly as it came, and where it struck, you see Valeos standing beside Fulmo, in a much more combat-ready outfit.
|
|
|
|
Fulmo has a high-collar silver shirt, nicely contrasting against the black denim longcoat and black cargo pants. His boots are polished black & bound by vibrant silver bootstraps, and his sunglasses wrap around his face perfectly, but do little to hide the charged blue eyes behind them. His hair, while mostly slicked back, is spiked in a uniform pattern, and each hair is crackling with energy.
|
|
|
|
Everyone stares at him in stunned silence for a moment, then all the Thunder Force officers salute him at the same time. He dismisses all of them with a wave, then approaches your group, his tail discharging small amounts of electricity into the open air.
|
|
|
|
"Kings of Kings, let it be known that I have not engaged in a challenge in some time. But I know full well my duties as a Demense Master include accepting challenges from Regalia Hunters, and I intend to take this challenge seriously. Do not expect me to hold back."
|
|
|
|
The inmates suddenly start hooting and hollering at your group AND Fulmo, all making comments about which one would be the biggest loser.
|
|
|
|
Fulmo becomes engulfed in electricity and disappears from view, reappearing inside the inmates' fence, directly behind them, causing them all to freeze in place.
|
|
|
|
"I would advise you pay close attention to this. For if I win, then my status as Lawbringer will be unquestionable. But if I lose, then that means THESE PEOPLE are more powerful than your JAILER."
|
|
|
|
And every single criminal suddenly shuts up right quick. Although you DO hear one in the back yell 'may the best man win!'
|
|
|
|
All the Thunder Force officers are trying their hardest to not laugh, but Valeos snorts a bit.
|
|
|
|
Fulmo simply leaps over the twelve foot razor wire fence, and lands beside your group. "On that note, I believe we are ready to begin, yes?"
|
|
|
|
*IF YES*
|
|
He raises his hand over his face, and quick as a flash, his head becomes engulfed in electricity for a moment before disappearing, his sunglasses replaced by a helmet of black and silver, molded after an old fashioned 8-point police cap with an over-the-eye visor attached to a silver bottom half face mask.
|
|
|
|
He then pulls out a pair of immaculate silver revolvers, his body charging with crackling electricity as he spins the chambers without even touching them. "Then let this battle be the finest these brave soldiers have ever witnessed."
|
|
|
|
AFTER THE FIGHT
|
|
|
|
*IF THEY LOSE*
|
|
Fulmo will stand proudly, his outfit in tatters, both guns aimed at your group in shaky hands, panting heavily with a trail of blood drooling from behind his mask.
|
|
|
|
He slides both guns into his holsters, and winces from the pain after. "Kings of Kings, speaking as an entity of electricity itself, I can safely say you are a force of nature. I genuinely believe my victory was nothing short of luck today. I know you will all likely wish to challenge me again sometime, and I openly invite and welcome the opportunity."
|
|
|
|
He slowly limps away from the battlefield, as the Thunder Force officers all around you salute him as he hobbles his way inside the Thunder Force main office, the doors slamming with an audible thud.
|
|
|
|
Valeos stays behind, kneeling in front of your group. "That was a hell of a show you put on. You should be proud."
|
|
|
|
*IF THEY WIN*
|
|
He collapses onto his knees, dropping both guns as he falls onto his hands, his helmet & mask falling onto the ground to fully reveal his face again.
|
|
|
|
He will look up to your group, electricity seeping out from around his eyes like a flow of energy, almost looking... angry? But he will close his eyes and sigh deeply, reopening them as they return to their original cool blue orbs.
|
|
|
|
"I have no excuse, you have defeated me fair and sqare before these witnesses. And you were all magnificent. As per the rules, you have won my Rai Revolvers as your prize."
|
|
|
|
He picks up both guns and stand up, swaying a bit as he does, and places them on the ground before you with their holsters. He shakily stands back up and aims a finger gun at your group. "Aim true, Kings of Kings. You have many battles ahead of you, and you will need to make every shot count."
|
|
|
|
He slowly turns and limps his way to the Thunder Force officers, but trips a few feet away, and Second Commander Valeos catches him. Valeos carries him over his shoulder as the two walk up the stairs together, surrounded by other concerned Officers the whole way.
|
|
|
|
Before they walk through the doors, Valeos turns back to your group and gives you a thumbs up and a wink, then carries their injured leader inside. |
