Fly Me to the Moon


Barnum

Recommended Posts

The Wind-Up bots took evasive action as soon as the heroes were close enough to strike. The two bots that had headed for Valkyrie broke away into dives at the last minute. She took a swing as they were passing by, but missed. The Emissary, however, had much better luck. He landed a stellar blow to the back of one of the bots, so hard, in fact, that he nearly broke it in half. The bot started spiraling downward, leaving a trail of smoke and debris in its wake.

The three remaining bots struck back. The left hand on each bot retracted back into their oversized wrists, and large gun barrels emerged in their place. Each bot blasted the heroes with surprising accuracy. One hit the Emissary. The other two hit Valkyrie.


Raindance slammed the two evil packages together hard. The boxes crunched in on the damaged side, but the evil clown affixed to their springs seemed unaffected. They sprang at Raindance again, and he only narrowly ducked aside. Their evil, mechanical laughter continued.

The Emissary grimaces as the energy beam washes over him, pushing through the force of it as his expression deepens to a frown on seeing the multiple impacts into Valkyrie.

He reaches his remaining opponent, lashing out quickly towards him in a hope to dig fingers into the robot's frame, then pull him up overhead and hurl him towards the machine's companions.

Shaking off the effects of the attack from the evil clown things, Velocity saw that Raindance was still going at them. Righting herself in a split second, she was off towards the two jack-in-the-boxes, now right next to each other thanks to Raindance. Once she as sure she was far enough away from the other hero, she triggered her sonic boom, catching both of the mechanical terrors in the shockwave.

The loud BOOM echoed in the warehouse, as she looped back around to stop near Raindance once more.

Following up Velocity's sonic boom, Raindance levelled his left arm at the closest box and then braced it with the other, as if supporting a large cannon upon his shoulder. He concentrated on forcing as much power as he could into this shot, hoping he could do as much damage as possible to the base of these things, to perhaps ruin the clockwork that must be powering them...

The space robots continued their reign of terror against the heroes. The Emissary grabbed the one that he hadn't crunched and sent it hurling off into space. But it quickly used its thrusters to slow itself and begin the return voyage, blasting away at the silver hero. The bot, however, was too far away to strike its mark. The bot that the Emissary had crunched continued to drift, leaving behind it a trail of smoke. Slowly it rotated itself around and blasted at the Emissary, hitting him dead on.

Meanwhile the two space bots continued to circle around the injured Valkyrie blasting her again with their disintegration rays. Things were looking bleak for the space-faring heroes.

Back on the Earth, things were not looking so bleak. Velocity unleashed a sonic boom into the hangar at the "Christmas presents." The box nearest to the door took the brunt of the blast. It toppled over and its "jack," the evil clown on the spring, slammed hard against the floor. The second box was dented and banged around, but didn't topple over. Its clown was flailing wildly about as a result of the shockwave.

Rose has no time to react before two searing beams of energy wash over her. Physically, they knock her for a six, and for a time the stars in cosmos they're floating in are dimmed by the stars floating in front of her eyes.

She's hit again. This time her body withstands the assault, but she feels her very essence being drained away.

From strength given perhaps by frustration if nothing else, the Emissary turned in the moment he was struck and charged full on into the beams of energy impacting into him, scattering them on his silver hide, forcing himself through their current and splitting the path of the attack's stream against the pair of fists he outstretched. His form, wake and progress forward all gleaming in the light so cast as he sought to plow straight through his opponent with the force of a cannon.

Velocity was rather satisfied with the effect of her sonic boom on the two jack-in-the-boxes. But they still seemed to be in the fight, so she then rushed past them once more, setting off a second sonic boom, hoping to finish off at least one of them.

In a second she was back over near Raindance.

Raindance spared just a look at Velocity to make sure she was okay, but couldn't resist a small smile at her impressive attack. Remembering to focus on the job in hand this time, he again levelled his hands to deliver what he hoped would be a decisive bolt of lightning at their opponents.

The battle in space raged on. Valkyrie jetted over to the nearest wind-up bot and took a swing, but her punch went wide. The bots responded with more disintegration blasts. The first bot was too busy dodging a punch to be very accurate, but while Valkyrie was distracted, the second bot blasted her in the back.

The Emissary, meanwhile, took off after the damaged bot, smashing it to bits in a matter of seconds. The second bot continued closing the distance and when it was within range, hit him square on the chest with another disintegration ray.


The combination of sonic boom and lightning bolt proved to be more than the metallic evil toys could handle. While Raindance's electricity was still arcing across their metal surface, Velocity unleashed the boom. Both of the evil toys were completely demolished in spectacular fashion by the combined impact. The heroes had to duck out of the way to avoid being pelted by flying debris.

The furious power of his assault increased further still by desperation on seeing Valkyrie continuing to struggle with the machines that refused to let up. He emerged from a cloud of debris, scattering it in his newest forceful advance towards the remaining obstacle in the way of going to aid his comarade, teeth gritted as he focused every bit of strength and momentum he could to the edge of his fists, seeking to drive them straight through the remaining robot that kept blasting away at him.

"If there is some malevolent childlike genius intellect behind this entire fiasco, I wish to say for the record you are completely unamusing!"

Raindance breathed out a sigh of relief as the last of the jack-in-the-boxes succumbed to their assault. He ran a hand through his hair, mussing it a bit - evidently he was quite worn out from the fight, if the perspiration on his brow was any judge.

He risked a look over at Velocity now.

"You okay? I was worried you took quite a hit back there."
