Colony Drop

Who: Char, the forces of Zeon (any or all of you who want to contribute), whatever allies decided to show up on short notice, and Viridi's minions as NPCed by her mun
What: Defending Zeon from Viridi's Reset Bomb
When: Dawn on July 2
Where: The skies above Zeon and the sea to the west of Zeon
Warnings: It's a combat log

Aboard the Rewloola - and surrounding it with every airship Char could muster in an hour - Zeon's defense forces array themselves on the predicted course of the nature goddess's meteoric wrath. Higher than anyone normally travels, all guns, bows, arrows, and anything else they could conceivably throw at the incoming Reset Bomb were trained up and westward. Char himself is ready with rifle and Nightingale, as much as those would even help - at the very least he could defend his artillery from any breakaway rocks or defending nature spirits.

"All ships," Char says, his words transcribed into signal flags to communicate with the other airship commanders even as he speaks over his Crystal to his higher-ranking soldiers. "We've sighted the meteor approaching at high speed from the west. All units are to move toward it at full speed and come about once it is within one half mile. Attempt to match speeds with it or safely enter its wake to maintain fire for as long as possible. We have about five minutes on target to destroy it, starting in two from this point. You are to do everything in your ability to grind it into dust before it strikes our homeland. Sieg Zeon!"

That curt set of instructions finished, Char gives to command to his captain to begin the all-ahead-full charge toward the interception point, all the while glaring up at the falling star. Nothing like this will happen to Zeon on his watch, even if he has to create a miracle with his own hands. That's what people like Zeon's do.

"I'd say you should be plenty worried right now."

The voice that echoes in Sara's head is cut off by the massive whump of something extraordinarily heavy falling onto the ship. The mass of sentient rock immediately begins to stomp after her.

"Good luck fighting a rock with a sword or a bow."

Sara sliced through another one and jumped back.

"Somebody's got to take out the ones that get onto the ship!"

She called out, jumping to the side at another attack. The golem appearing knocked Sara to the ground just from the shockwave, her swords clattering. She ran to grab both of them and quickly get out of the way.

[ Garviel, being heavier than Sara, roars a challenge and tries to shoulder-rush the golem, an adamantine and ceramite projectile cannoning towards it, trying to hit it up high, overbalancing it and sending it off the rails if possible. ]

The Boomstomper will do Garviel's job for it. ...Well. Sort of. The part about falling, anyway. Except it leaps into the air and falls forward to try and land on top of Garviel. Whether or not it hits, it inflicts a significant amount of damage to the deck and sends damaging shock waves in every direction.

Sara senses it this time and jumps high to avoid the shockwave. She ends up landing on top of the monster, promptly jumping off, all the while wondering how she'll do any damage to it.

"Nrrraaagh!"

Loken growls, from underneath the boomstomper. He'll slowly, slowly, slowly try to raise it, exerting himself and his strength-enhancing armor against the heavy stone creature.

forceofnature: (Smug)

"Don't slip a disc. Trust me, those are never fun."

The Boomstomper doesn't move. It seems to be quite happy where it is, crushing Garviel against the ground with some brief assistance from Sara.

...How slowly is slowly? For the casual onlooker will note that the Boomstomper, after a minute or so, is no longer completely horizontal to the ground.
