Roleplay:Numbered Days

A few months after the World Hero Tournament, a mysterious figure stands atop a tall mountain, looking over Station Square. "Enjoy your era of peace while you can," he said, "because soon, it will all come to an end." And with that, he lept off of the mountain and vanished into thin air.

Part 1A:
It is a peaceful day in the busy Station Square. People are hustling about, going about their daily activities. Suddenly, a rogue hedgehog appears on the scene. He dashes into a couple of buildings, damaging them, and is attacking innocent civilians.

???2: *looks at the hedgehog* What is it up to?

????: (Steps out of the rubble, revealing none other than Sonic the Hedgehog) Hello there. Wanna play?

???2: Whatever Sonic. *smirks*

Sonic: (Dashes into ???? at high speed and knocks him into a building)

????: *gets up out of a building and uses Volt Tackle on Sonic*

[Meanwhile, a strange-looking being is watching the fight...]

???: Something is wrong here...

Sonic gets up, without a scratch on him. "What, is that all you can do? Who are you anyways?"

???: No...I can control much more than that..I can control Space and Fire as well got a Problem? My name is Keith The Dragonolf, the fastest ever...

[The mysterious being turns invisible and gets closer to Keith and Sonic.]

Keith: *uses Spacial Rend on Sonic*

[Something suddenly counters the Spacial Rend attack with a ChronoBlade!]

??? 3: ... *looks at Sonic* What are you doing here Mr. Hero?

Keith:What was that and who was that who attacked me?

???: Enough of this fighting.

''[A mysterious-looking, anthropomorphic being with pink markings reveals itself. It has a female's voice.]''

Keith: Or what will happen?

???: There is a much greater evil threatening to consume Mobius. Fighting amongst yourselves will solve nothing.

Keith: Oh yeah? *uses Thunder on ???*

???: [Dodges easily]

Keith:*uses Flamethrower on ???*

???: [Counters with Hydro Pump] Is violence your answer to everything?

Keith:Yes....(uses Overheat to counter Hydro Pump)

[The two attacks engage in a power struggle!]

???: I must admit, that is quite...sad...

Keith:Oh really...(uses Blast Burn countering Hydro Pump)

[Due to the power loss from using Overheat, Keith's Blast Burn is a bit weaker than normal.]

???: Yes...[teleports out of the way, appearing behind Keith]

Keith:What where did it go?

???: [Floating a foot off the ground] I'm right behind you, if you wish to continue wasting time and energy fighting me.

Keith:So? *uses Thunderbolt on ???*

???: [Uses Static Cling to absorb the electricity]

Keith:*uses Ice Punch on ???*

???: [Counters with Fire Palm]

(Sonic): Well, you guys certainly have some unique abilities. Mind if I use them for a while?

Sonic then fades to a pure black colour. His shape slowly changes, and he reverts back to his original form.

????: Hey everyone.

???: !

Keith:What?! How can he shapeshift?

Nusquam: Hehehehe. That's because I'm not Sonic you moron. My name is Nusquam the Doppleganger, and I'm going to borrow your powers for a while.

[Then, a being similar to the one with pink markings appears.]

??? 2: You! You're the cause of all this!

Nusquam: Who, me? No, you think? (teleports in front of ???2 and kicks him/her in the face)

??? 2: [Goes skidding back a few feet] Gah!! [dashes at Nusquam suddenly, about to use Inferno Slash]

Nusquam: (does the same, extending his claws and charging them with fire) Hah!

[??? 2 and Nusquam's fire-coated claws collide, creating a small explosion of fire.]

Another being appears, shifting out of Nasquam's shadow; Rage the Bear. "You're quite an interesting person, able to change your shape and all that." Rage then jumps away and fires a dark bolt at Nasquam.

Nusquam: (quickly jumps out of the way) Not bad, but you'll have to do better than that! (fires two pure black energy beams at ???2 and Rage) Two against one? This is beginning to be a fair fight.

Rage snickers. "Using a darkness-based attack on me? Do you even know who I am?" The beam slams against him with no evident damage, but at the same time Rage fires a wave of darkness towards Nasquam. "No way to dodge this!"

Nusquam: Hm, well that would do quite a bit of damage...(the wave hits Nusquam head on, but phases right through him and heads towards ???2) if I was someone else. Shadow beams won't work on you eh? Well then, maybe this will work. Final Lament! (A coil of pitch black negative energy (not darkness) fires out of Nusquam's hand and wraps around Rage)

Rage growls as the negative power coils around him. "Hmph, you have some ability, I see. Still, this is nothing." Rage turns pitch-black and falls into his own shadow, only to reappear a few feat away. "You can't fight something like me, fool. And you're about to find out why!" Rage launches another blast of darkness at Nasquam, followed by a Nightmare Spear attack.

''[Not expecting Rage's attack to go through Nusquam, ??? 2 gets hit full on.]''

Nusquam: (Suddenly vanishes, avoiding both attacks. Then behind Rage...) You shouldn't talk like you have power. Besides, you didn't let me finish branding you. (His arms then turned pitch black, grow and extend, grabbing Rage and lifting him several feet into the air) You'll need a lot more power to defeat a god!

Rage again shifted into the shadows, reappearing a distance away again. "No wonder neither of us are getting very far, fool....I was a god, worshiped by my people, and feared the whole world over! You don't have the means to defeat me!" He roared, firing three dark bolts at his enemy.

The bolts phased through Nusquam once again. "You really never learn do you? I was hoping to make thin flashy, but I guess I'll have to do this the quick way. Lucky for you." His arm turned black and extended towards Rage at high speed, his palm hitting Rage in the forehead. Rage started emitting waves of negative energy, and when Nusquam removed his hand from his head, he left a 無 mark on his forehead. "There, you've been branded."

Rage smirked, the mark disappearing as soon as it appeared. "You can't mar a body like mine. It seems you are the one who won't learn." He then jumps into the air and fires a barrage of dark bolts. "No one can be intangible forever."

(fair enough)

"Tch! You really are a god then. No mortal can simply shrug off my brand." He created a purple barrier around him and deflected the bolts. Looks like I'll have to use other abilities to defeat you.

Rage continues to assault his opponent with a hail of black bolts. "Oh yeah!? What abilities would those be?"

Nusquam began building up energy in his hand, deflecting the bolts with the other one. "Let's see if this works, shall we?"

Rage remains wary of Nasquem's energy build-up, but nevertheless continues attacking. "Bring it on!"

"Fine." Nusquam was finished charging. "Chrono Slow!" Everything slowed down immensely. The bolts rage fired at Nusquam now moved at the speed of a snail. "Hm."

Rage himself didn't notice a change in time. He didn't know that he was wide open to attack.

"Well this certainly does the trick." He took his time walking over to Rage. "You're good, but not that good." He extended his arm, and fired a big blast of negative energy at Rage.

Time reverted back to normal speed

Rage is blown to the ground, several injuries visible. "W-what the!?" He stammered, before glaring up at Nasquam. "You'll pay dearly for this....just you wait." He stammers, before falling unconscious. (And then I'll need to bring his super-form in to beat you, huh?)

(Probably, but not yet. This is just the beginning of the story, remember?)

"That's all? I'm dissappointed. The only person worth branding is un-brandable." He then sighed. "Oh well. There's bound to be someone around here who can open the doorway for me. Maybe they'll be in Greenflower City." With that, he rose into the air, and flew off in the direction of the city."Whoops. Nearly forgot to brand this area." His arm turned black and his hand grew to the size of a car. He then stretched his arm and slammed his hand into the ground, leaving a massive 無 shaped scar on the ground. "I'll give this place a few days till it fully falls apart. That's the power of my Lamenting Curse." He then flew off towards Greenflower City, with a certain echidna on his mind.

(Meanwhile...)

Ichiro and Kenji: [meditating onto the grassy field]

Ichiro: Hitotsu ha, chuudan dare se zu ni, shizen to ketsugou suru houhou o manabu hitsuyou ga ari masu. (One must learn how to bond with nature, without anybody interrupting.)

Kenji: Hai. (Yes.)

(Claude is seen watching Station Square, with faint panicked commotions)

Claude: [thinking] What just happened to Station Square...? [walks over to Station Square to find out what was going on]

Part 1B: Greenflower City
A blue echidna watched the news reports in his home. A fight broke out in Station Square. After leaving a lot of damage in the area, the victor of the battle left a 無 mark on the ground. The echidna looked very concerned. "What on earth...?" He examined the mark a bit better, as long it was onscreen. He didn't really recognize it from anywhere. "Something's wrong here..Why would someone do that? What are they planning?" He stroked his chin. "This most certainly doesn't bode well..." He looked over his shoulder, glancing at another echidna behind him.

She shook her head. "I don't know what it could mean. Who did this?"

"That's the question." He said, standing up. "I think this requires further investigation..."

Not too far away, Rage was starting to wake up, looking around. "Where...where did that guy go..." He stammered as he got to his feet.

A woman dressed in long flowing robes and emitting a bright glow appeared in front of him. "Please, you must stop him. I will explain later, but for now, you must got to Greenflower City!" Then, as suddenly as she appeared, she vanished.

"Super-powered time gods...hallucinations....saving the world...this sounds a lot like something Sonic should be mixed up in..." Rage mutters as he gets to his feet. "If that freak ran off to Greenflower City...then there's nothing I can do for them now...He's already proven too strong for me before, but if I'm at full power...well, then even for a moment, there's nothing in existence that can defeat me...I have to retrieve my other four Rage Gems." He said finally. And with that, he turned tail and ran into the horizon.

In Greenflower City...

Standing atop a skyscraper, Nusquam observed his new playground. "Now, if I recall correctly, a famous fighter lives somewhere here. If I can find him, good. If I make enough of a mess to draw him and maybe some other heroes, very good." He scanned the area, trying to look for a clue as to where the fighter resides. "Darn it. This may take a while. I need to find someone powerful enough to open the Doorway for me, and this echidna may be my only option!" He then dove into the city, ready to cause some chaos.

Meanwhile, a green falcon flew above the city. "Are you sure this is the place we're looking for," he said into a communicator, "It looks pretty deserted." A female voice spoke back, "Just keep looking Rad. The commander never gives us fake hits." Rad continued to soar over Greenflower City, circling with a watchful eye.

Then, a massive explosion occurred in the center of town.

"Woah," shouted Rad with excitement, "This is BIG! I should listen to you more often." From the communicator again, the voice said "Yes... Yes you should. Heh..." Rad dropped altitude, getting ever so closer to the site of the explosion.

Nusquam was standing in the center of a huge crater he made in the central hub of town. "Good. That should've gotten some attention. But, no one said I can't have a little fun." He shot bolts of negative energy at buildings, overturned cars, and destroyed several shops, and he was greatly enjoying himself.


 * ((Actually, the city should be quite lively.))

The first person to show up at the scene was a red and blue multicolored hedgehog. He quickly came from behind Nusquam and delivered a flying kick towards the back of his head.

Nusquam caught his kick with relative ease, and tossed the hedgehog into a nearby shop.


 * (Scroll up to see what Rage will be doing for a bit. Message me when you feel it's time he returns, or I'll post when I think that time comes.)


 * ((Lively? I read it's page and it said that that the city was blown up.))

Rad dropped to the ground, ready for combat, he saw the hedgehog attack Nusquam, but was still unsure who the bad guy was. "Alright, what's going on here?" he called out, trying to pinpoint his target.

Keith: *uses Thunder on Rad*

Rad dodged at the last moment, almost surprised at how easy it was. "Hey! What's the big idea?" he shouted in anger. Rad back up a bit, trying to keep the two in the crater and this new guy in his line of sight.

Keith: *uses Thunderbolt on Rad*

With more notice this time, Rad managed to dodge again, but landed off balance. "Great, now you gone and gotten me angry," he said before flying high up into the sky once more. "Y'know, I've got friends like you," he started, "Hit first, ask questions later. Ya... that doesn't always work out for them, so you ain't gonna be much different." Once he finished, Rad began to spin on the spot at unimaginable speeds.

Keith: *uses Volt Tackle on Rad*

Nusquam watched as Keith and Rad duked it out. "Well, these two are certainly interesting. Let's test their power." He built up energy in his right hand, which then took the form of flames. "Blazing Star!" He then fired a large fireball in their direction.

Rad flew away from the Volt Tackle at supersonic speeds. When he stopped spinning, he was glowing brightly. He saw the fireball heading his way, and flew even higher. "Good luck with that, dude," he called down to Keith.

Meanwhile, the two beings from earlier, being followed by a third similar one, had arrived in Greenflower City.

Keith: *dodged out of the way like it was nothing* How useless....

The fireball then exploded in a massive, supernova-esque explosion, blowing everyone in the area back.

Keith:*falls back from the explosion* Ugh...

Meanwhile, somewhere else in Greenflower City, a purple-furred female cat happened to hear the explosion. She was accompanied by a shiny Ampharos.

"What the heck was that?!" said the cat, looking around.

"Ampha," her companion said.

"C'mon, we should check it out!"

So the cat and her Ampharos ran towards the source of the explosion.

Meanwhile in the other part of Greenflower City...

Keith:What was that for?!

The hedgehog came back out of the shop, dusting himself off. "Alright, you. Just who do you think you are, coming here at random and wrecking everything!?" He demanded. "We just got this place fixed up for the THIRD TIME!"

Keith:It's not me...stop blaming me for everyhting!

He looked over at Keith. "I wasn't even talking to you! I'm talking to the one that DID this!"

Keith:Third Time are you serious what happened last ime?

"We had a problem with these Crystal Warrior dudes. Made a mess of everything." He explained, quickly.

"I'm not the first to mess up this city? Now I'm disappointed," Nusquam said. "By the way, do you know anything about The Doorway?"

(Ichiro and Kenji have been moved to part 1A)

"Like I'm gonna give you any information!" The hedgehog snapped at him. "Who the heck are you, anyway!?"

"Unless you're strong enough, it's none of your business. Now get out of my way." The villain then fired several bolts of negative energy at the hedgehog.

The hedgehog was quick enough to dodge every shot easily. "Get out of the city, and maybe I'll get out of your way!" He yelled before firing several fireballs towards him as a counter attack.

Rad flew back down after observing the fighting. "Alright. I think I've got this down now," he said to himself. He started spinning again, and flew down straight towards Nusquam.

"I may not be at full power, but even at this level," Nusquam then created a barrier around himself, deflecting the shots back at the hedgehog and repelling Rad, "No mere mortal can defeat me."

The purple cat had just arrived on the scene, spying Nusquam. She promptly hid behind a small building.

"Who the heck is he?!" she said to herself.

"You, hedgehog. You're stronger than you look. You might make a good avatar after all," Nusquam said.

"Ow! I HATE shields!" Rad shouted in frustration. He flew up once more, going into a loop. On the downward, he headed for Nusquam once more and shouted "Barrel Shield BREAKER!" A spinning aura appeared around him, turning him into a sort of energy drill.

Flame: *heading towards the sight of the battle, a fair distance away, see's the energy drill though * well... something's happening... i should get over there. *takes off at top speed towards the battle*

The Hedgehog merely absorbed the fireballs back into his hands. "I don't know what you're planning, but don't think I'd just turn and help you out!"

Flame: *skids to a stop once he arrives* Alright, what's going on here?

Pyro: (lands nearby) sup?

Flame: *glances at pyro, alarmed by his sudden appearance*

Nusquam's arms turned black and extended, and he grabbed both Rad and the hedgehog in his now massive hands. "I never said you had a choice."

Flame:(Drop from a tree)Hey guys.:)

Cold(Also drop out a tree)Hmph!

"Hey, I remember you! You participated in the World Hero Tournament recently! On second thought," Nusquam dropped Rad and grabbed Cold in a strong grip.

"Hrk!" The hedgehog grunted and squirmed, trying to break free. "Let..Me..GO!" His entire body erupted into flames, in an attempt to burn his hand.

Cold:You need to learn some manners.

Nusquam then dropped Cold. "Never mind you. You're a tad bit weak."

Rad lay on the ground, stunned at Nusquam's power. "I... How did he-- Jade," he began to his communicator, "Reinforcements... Powerful ones."

Nusquam held on to the hedgehog. "Now stay still while I brand you." He squeezed him a little, and then a flash of black light emitted from the hedgehog. When it faded, a clear 無mark was seen on his forehead. "There. You've been branded."

Keith:*uses Volt Tackle on Rad*

Flame:Wait a minute!

Rad rolled out of the way, but not quick enough; he got hit by the attack's aftermath (It's super effective!). "Will you STOP DOING THAT!" Rad yelled in anger, "I'm not here for you!"

Flame:Who are you hear for then?

Rad got up and said to Flame, "I was sent here to investigate a possible attack. I got here too late, so I called for help." He pressed a button on his collar, which surrounded him in a green right. "I'm taking cover for now, since some people don't know when enough is enough," he said gesturing to Keith. After that, Rad flew off.

Pyro: not sure what's going on, but i could use some training before i go after my real target. (flicks his wrist. a sword made of a forced fusion of fire and water appears in his hand.)

Cold:Well I could train you.

Pyro: there's no training like actual combat. besides, i never said im not good, im just a little rusty.

Cold:(Goes in battle pose)Lets see how good you are.

Pyro: (readies his sword) right.

(Fine)

Keith:*uses Iron Tail on Pyro*

Cold:(Blocks it)No you don't

Pyro: (catches Keith's tail one-handed without looking. the whites of his eyes are now cyan and the pupils dark blue)

Keith:*uses Thunder Tail causing his tail to glow with Electricly*

Pyro: (doesn't see the attack coming and gets electrocuted. lets go of his tail and jumps back a few feet)

"Why are these fools fighting amongst themselves?" Nusquam asked himself. "No matter. None of them are worth branding anyway."

Keith:*uses Iron while using Volt Tackle at the same time while charging at Pryo using Iron Tail at Him*

(Exactly why are you guys fighting?)

(cuz Keith attacked)

Pyro: (collapses into a puddle of water. comes out of another puddle behind Nusquam) what was that you said?

"What, are you deaf?" the villain replied.

Pyro: just so you know, i've been 'branded' by a villain before. at least someone saw potential in me.

"Well let's see that potential in action then!" Nusqam the fired a massive black laserbeam in his direction.

Pyro: (dissappears and reappears behind Nusquam. slices at him with his sword)

Cold:Your a great fighter Pyro.

The sword phases right through him. "You thought it would be that easy?" He then elbows Pyro in the face, hard, sending him flying back a few feet.

Pyro: well, that's irritating. (jabs the blade of Searing Surf (his sword) into the ground) let's see you dodge this! Weapon Style: Searing Surf! (boiling water gushes out of the hilt of his sword, creating a guyser. Pyro takes control of the water and sends it in a massive tidal wave aimed at Nusquam)

Keith:*uses Iron Tail on Pryo*

Pyro: (a small stream of the scalding hot water separates from the rest and slams into Keith full force)

Nusquam sees the tidal wave coming towards him. "Well, that's a big wave. You've got some power I'll give you that." Pyro then hears a voice coming from behind him. "But not that much," Nusquam said, leaning against a lamppost, now behind Pyro.

Pyro: (Nusquam feels wave after wave of scalding water wash over him. the tidal wave flickers and fades away as a second one fades into being already slamming into him full force) more power than you know.

When the waves finally dissipated, Nusquam was seen standing, burnt from the hot water. "Looks like I underestimated you. That would've killed me, if I wasn't immortal." As he spoke, his burns slowly disappeared until they vanished altogether. "Is that all you've got? Cuz now I'm really disappointed."

Pyro: (removes the sword from the ground) dismissed. (the sword dissappears in a burst of steam. a staff made of water appears in his hand) a good water being can use up to three weapon techniques in a row.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're related to that Tsunami girl, right? The one who competed in the WHT a while ago?" Nusquam asked his opponent.

Pyro: sorry. i don't know a 'Tsunami'.

"Hm. I suppose she may be known by another name. She looked a lot like you. Anyways, I'm getting bored with you. Show me what you have left," Nusquam said.

Pyro: (holds his Rain Staff up high) very well. Weapon Style: Rain Storm! (it begins to rain) Rain Staff! Acend! Flood Spear! (the staff becomes a spear made of water)

Flame:Who is Tsunami?

"You know, there's a reason I'm known as 'The Doppleganger'." None of the raindrops hit the ground. They all fused into a massive orb of water that only grew and grew.

Pyro: (smiles) hah. that won't help you. in fact, that's even better than what i'd planned. (jabs the Flood Spear into the ground) Weapon Style: Flood Spear! (the orb of water grows larger and larger, becoming a massive wave. the wave flows straight for Nusquam, the edges seeming to change shape, becoming a flood of spears)

"Sigh." The flood completely stopped in its tracks. "What I meant was, I can control water as well. Not only that, but I can do this as well." The flood of spears reverted back into a massive wave. Then, it turned into pitch black negative energy. "Have fun." The wave then changed direction and headed for Pyro.

Pyro: (vanishes in a burst of flame. behind Nusquam now) sup?

"Sup?" Nusquam suddenly appears behind Pyro in an instant.

The hedgehog was in a kneeling position, injured from being crushed in Nusquam's giant hand. He coughed a few times, and looked back up at what was happening. "How am I supposed to stop this guy..?" He asked himself.

"Oh, you're awake now? I was beginning to worry you couldn't handle it," the demon said.

"What the-" The hedgehog looked around quickly. "Who are you?"

"I should be asking the same question. What is your name?" Nusquam asked.

((When you said Demon, I thought you meant someone else.))

"Wait, hey! I asked you first a long time ago!" He stood back up. "If ya gotta know, my name's Splice. And I'm not gonna tolerate this any further!" He spread his arms outward, seemingly charging an attack.

"My name is Nusquam, and before you do anything else, I'd take that mark on your head into consideration," he said.

He stopped. "Wait a minute..." He felt his forehead, soon feeling the mark. ...Not good. He thought.

Pyro: (rams into Nusquam with his shoulder) sneak attack!

Almost directly after Pyro's attack, something struck at Nusquam hard from above, aimed for his head. In fact, a blow like this would brutally kill a normal person.

"Gyah! What the heck was that?" he was furious now for falling for such a dirt trick. "You're lucky I can't kill you because of the brand. But you, water boy, you're going to die!"

Pyro: bring it on noob!

((I honestly can't believe he just said that.))

((lol))

"And what about me?" The voice of a blue echidna asked, standing in front of him.

Splice looked over towards them, and his face brightened up a bit. Oh boy am I glad to see him! He thought.

"Splice, Are you alright?" A female voice asked. A pink echidna with purple hair came rushing over to him. "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine, Thanks Pearl." He said. "This guy, though..." He looked towards Nusquam, clearly concerned

"Looks like you finally showed up. And you brought your friends too. Now I can brand them just like that hedgehog!" The villain looked quite excited about the new arrivals.

Just then, Rad returned, carrying a jade-green hedgehog as he flew. With them were several melon-green mechs. "Looks like you're seriously outnumbered," Rad said as the group landed. The hedgehog then turned and said, "I guess we weren't the only ones to think of getting help." Each mech lifted an arm to Nusquam, all of which turn into machine guns.

"Dammit. I wasn't counting on so many of you to show up. Farewell for now." He raised his hand high into the air, and then smashed it into the ground. "Final Lament!" A massive shockwave erupted from him, blowing back nearly everyone and everything not strong enough to withstand it. When he raised his hand, his signature mark could be seen on the ground, although much smaller than the one in Station Square. "By tomorrow, this entire area will collapse. Good-bye." With that, he then vanished into thin air.

Pyro: dang. he got away.

"Well, that's disappointing," the hedgehog said as she recovered from the blast. "Ugh... Gammas! Spread out, command: guard," ordered Rad to the mechs. He looked around at everyone else, then the mark on the ground. "Well... what now?"

Pyro: no idea. i started this battle with him to train for my final confrontation with my true target. but, after seeing what happened here, i feel i must help out in whatever way i can.

"Well, he was our target, so we can't really back off," the hedgehog replied. "Right. We'll have the Gammas watch the city in case he come back, while... I guess we go look for him," added Rad. The hedgehog began jumping around anxiously, as if she were about to break into a run. "Any of you boys wanna come with?"

Pyro: glad to.

Splice looked at the mark on the ground with concern. "...Pearl, look at my forehead." He asked. Pearl glanced at it, soon looking somewhat confused.

"What's that mark on your forehead?" She asked.

"Is it the same as on the ground?"

She looked back and forth a single time, soon gasping. "It IS!"

The blue echidna examined the mark on the ground. "This is the same mark as the one in Station Square. That could only mean that this guy is the one who attacked there.." He said. "But how can we prevent this mark from destroying the area?"

The purple cat and her shiny Ampharos companion were still watching the scene from a short distance, hidden by the shade of a building.

Pyro: (senses the cat's body heat. turns to look in her direction) who's there?

"Uhh...I-I am," said the cat, cautiously walking out into the open. The shiny Ampharos was by her side, looking ready to defend her trainer should anyone try to attack her.

Pyro: no need to be afraid, i wont hurt you. what's your name?

"Ryushu..."

Pyro: Pyro. nice to meet you.

"Yeah...uhh...what happened here..." she said, looking at the unusual brand seared upon the ground.

Flames: *Walks into town, has a backpack on* Finally. ^^ here. I've been waiting to go here for a while. *Talking to himself*

(Just so you guys know, my Flame is now Flames. Since someone posted in the rp with a fc named Flame. His new name for now is Flames)

Pyro: (to Ryushu) im not quite sure. that Orochimaru wannabe made it.

"...who...?"

Pyro: which one? Orochimaru or the other guy?

"Both," she said.

Pyro: Orochimaru is a white snake. trust me, he's not someone you wanna meet. the other guy....i don't know anything about him. just that, like Orochimaru, he claims to be immortal.

"Uhh...okay..."

Flames: Hey guys what's goin on? *stops near them*

Flame:Nothing much.

Flames: *notices the mark* what's that? looks like some kind of ancient marking or something.

"That mark is far from ancient." The echidna stated. "It was just put here a few moments ago."

Pyro: i have some experience with strange black marks.

Keith:*gets washed away by water and gets hit by Blast*How useless...I'm sure Smash won't even stand a chance against that guy...

Flames: what i meant was that it's an ancient mark that does SOMETHING... probably some sort of explosive marking... can't tell cause it's not my field.

Cold:I'm sort of puzzled now.

Skate:(Jump out a tree)Hey dudes

LT:(Also Jumps out a tree)What's up!

???3:*uses Air Cutter on LT*

Skate:CHAOS BLOCK(blocks the attack),be more on guard LT!

LT:Wait what tried to kill me!?

Skate:A wind attack.

???3:*uses Heat Wave on Skate&LT*

Keith:*uses Thunder on Skate&LT*

Cold:SPEED KICK(Deflects the attacks)

Keith&???3:(dodges the attacks with Incredible speed) LET'S FINISH THIS!!!(they both uses Overheat on Skate)

Skate&Cold&LT:CHAOS KAIO-KEN(Powers up)!

Keith:*uses Volt Tackle on LT*

???3:*uses Overheat and Flamethrower causing a more powerful Fire type attack against Cold*
 * (Ryu-Actually, Overheat would have weakened ???3's power, making the resulting Flamethrower weaker.)

"What the hell?!" Ryushu cried out, startled by the sudden outbreak of violence. She ran over to them, followed by her Ampharos.

"What the hell is your guys' problems?!"

"Amphaa!"

Cold&LT&Skate:CHAOS BLOCK(protects themselves)!
