"Weclome back to channel 5 news. As a follow-up to our previous news story, the UK is still completely silent. Recently, similar incident have started happening elsewhere as well. Megacity 14 and Megacity 6 have also reported strange happenings. Megacity 10 can as of yet not be reached. We go live to our eye in the sky over Megacity 10. How are things up there, Jim."
"As you can see, multiple buildings have caught on fire and the police are having a hard time holding off the terrorists in the street. I've heard repo- HOLY SHIT, WHAT IS THAT?! IS THAT A FUCKING DRAGON?!"
"Jim, dragons aren't real. They're a fairy tale."
"THE FAIRY TALE IS LOOKING RIGHT AT US. OH GOD. OH GO-"
The feed is cut off in a whirlwind of fire.
"We seem to, uh, be, uh, experienceing some technical, uh. Just cut to commercial!"
I could fight like big hero. And risk death.
On the other hand, i could nope away, take the elevator and pretend nothing happened.
But i will...
Wait until all the red boys are close to me, and do the 360 degrees punch to get them all, or none of them.
You wait for the reds to make their move. As one, they surge forwards, encircling you. Two of them get met head on by the green spandex guys, but four of them are still coming for you. You prepare your circle punch attack and [6 -> 4] small whisps of golden yellow energy crackle along your arm. With remarkable speed and a power you didn't know you had, you spin around and hit each of the reds. They go flying back, landing several meters away from you. The yellow energy seems to be building up, and you feel as though you're being watched.
"Uh...Hi there! You lost buddy? Need any help?"
Attempt to communicate with the creature. Befriend it if possible.
When you speak, the creature turns toward you. The middle of the ball of flesh starts to part, revealing rows upon rows of teeth. It hisses and starts waddling towards you with its tiny legs, knife raised. It looks pretty comical, but it's picking up a surprising amount of speed.
Make this kid into my sidekick.
[5] With the power of your great American spirit, you somehow convince the kid whose mother you just murdered that she was commie scum and that he should become your sidekick.
Somehow. You may choose your sidekick's name if you want, together with your action for next turn.
"I need your help. The warriors who once defended our world have vanished. The criminals have decided that this is a good time to increase their activities, threatening others. I want to fight them, to show them they can't get away with whatever they please. To that end, I have built a suit which I found a design for in a book. It requires the strength of what it calls an "Other" to power it. I assume it is some sort of obfuscation for spirits, gods, and other such beings, although I think it would have been easier to just say that. I was hoping you would be willing to help me by powering the suit and helping me to stop the criminals. It would also give you a chance to see the world again, and maybe fight a few strong warriors if that interests you."
Politely ask for help, with any necessary bowing. If he agrees, also politely ask if it would be possible to summon the Green Dragon Crescent Blade as the suit's armament
"Your words ring true, young man. I shall aid you, for now. It will be good to see the realm of the living again."The shade walks into the suit, dissapearing inside of it. Green runes glow over the surface and the suit starts opening up at the front. You step inside and it closes up, making a perfect fit for you. A HUD comes up, also in green transparant hologram.
"Suǒyǒu xìtǒng biāo chēng. We are good to go. When in need, I shall give you advice and part of my powers."Get back and ask if i can join spec.forces.
You head over to the hangar bay. A group of people are gearing up, and three helicopters are being wheeled over to the take off pads. Gunny walks up behind you and says that they're getting ready to see waht's up in the city. You ask him if you can join the spec ops.
"So you want to join the elite, maggot? Very well, grab any gear you need from the racks and pick a spot on one of the helicopters. We sortie in 5."
The rack holds shotguns, smg's and assault rifles. Below those it has some bulletproof vests, helmets and pistols.
Examine arsenal of nonlethal weapons
"WELL, THIS MIGHT BE PROBLEMATIC... GOOD LUCK ON YOUR OWN FIGHTS, CITIZENS! THOSE DEMONS WILL SURELY FIND WE ARE NO FORCE TO BE TRIFLED WITH."
Hope dragons are weak to electricity ((yes, those are my actions))
Like, right where you are? You've got you baton, that's non lethal if you can keep yourself from smashing their skulls with it. You're pretty good at hand-to-hand too. There's a can of mace tocked away in one of your suit pockets, too.
You hope, pray even that the dragons are weak to electricity. Your prayers are, suitably, met with silence.
Gunshots can be heard from further down the street. The people in the diner are getting a bit restless.
Walk up to him silently.
"Such enigmatic silence enkindles suspicion."
Damn, I sound awesome!
You walk up to guy as silently as you can and say your words. He turns around, he's holding a copy of last month's hustler.
"Ah, one of the monkeys has nerve to come speak to me." He waves the magazine and throws it to the ground. "Vile and base degenerates, the lot of you. It will be good to have you all purged. Your blood will nurture the growing of our great empire."
No that he's turned, you can see someone lying on the ground behind him. They aren't moving.
Say hi to the woman.
You say hi to the woman, and she looks at you and smiles. [4] You can feel a tingling at the back of your head, some kind of influence trying to invade your mind. You manage to shake it off.
Looking back at the woman, she is no longer the beautiful mermaid. Her mouth stretches from ear to ear and is lined with shark lined teeth, and her eyes are solid black. She screetches and dives into the water. Several pools of bubbles can be seen froming on the surface, moving towards the edge of the pool.
