REAM
Episode 1
WEST COAST -the inner borders
Three figures dash through the woods under the cover of the night.
They head towards the same direction and move quickly like swift blurs of shadows, until...
Roomp
Don’t take me to be that foolish.
Roomp turns around and suddenly calls out.
Roomp
I know you’re out there
Roomp
I might not be very keen, but I know when I’m being followed.
A figure soon step out of a shadowed cover of trees.
Axl Dwight
You couldn’t be more oblivious.
Roomp
We’ll see about THAT!!!
sends a blast of steam at Axl
Axl Dwight
•dodges the steam easily
Axl Dwight
,,the steam is slow but...(looks at an oak tree behind him)...
The tree had melted halfway through
Axl Dwight
It’s highly pressured
Axl Dwight
What it lacks in speed, it amounts for in damage
Roomp
Seems my attack caught your eye.
Roomp
Why don’t you admire it. Up close when I burn it through your skull.
Roomp
BAROS SKILL - STEAM REAM; FIFTH ORDER - whistling torpedo.
(On his hand is a tattooed seal of the Baros)
The seal glows and a portal opens before his outstretched hands
From the portals emerges Two hurls of steam. Larger than the one before
The steams move in twisted opposite directions towards Axl
The steams crash into the woods
Bringing down trees with a mighty fall
The area clears out from steam leaves and dust
But Axl is completely out of sight
Axl Dwight
If I were you...I wouldn’t move
A sharp black blade is pierced behind Roomps back
Slugs voice comes from a distance
Shadowed by the glow of moonlight
Slug
I was about to say something along those lines
Slug
SLUG SEAL- HYDRO REAM; THIRD ORDER - sinking swamp.
Roomp
(Breaks away from Axl)
The ground beneath Axl breaks into a thick muddy hole
Axl Dwight
“I hated these pants anyways”...
Slug
What’s wrong, genius? You seem stuck!
Axl Dwight
He uses a Hydro Ream. The nature of his attack is based on water.
Axl Dwight
This Seal technique allows him to infuse water into substances until they liquify
Axl Dwight
But that’s not all
Axl tried to move his right leg
Axl Dwight
(Tries to move his right leg)...
The mud-like earth gets thicker and tighter around it squeezing him hard.
Axl Dwight
With his infused water in the mass of substance he can control its strength weight and density.
Axl Dwight
(Looks behind him into a hide of trees)...
Axl Dwight
Well I guess I’d have to wait then.
Axl cross his arms and stands still...
Slug
<chuckles maniacally>
Harpie
(Comes down from a high tree top)
Harpie flutters down from a high tree flapping her hazel brown wings to suspend herself mid air.
Harpie
Who shot into those trees? Have you gone blind.
Roomp
(Throws a rectangular box at her)
Roomp
Take it and head out the border quickly.
Harpie
<grins> won’t have it any other way.
Slug
You, crazy con, don’t get too far.
Axl Dwight
Don’t worry I’ll make sure she doesn’t
Spots Axl right behind him from the corner of his eye.
Roomp
How does he keep doing that?
Axl Dwight
Basic immaterialism
Axl Dwight
“The Fith order of the immaterial ream allows me to immaterialism and materialize at Will.
Axl Dwight
Catches his arm
Axl Dwight
Flips him to the ground
Axl Dwight
(Draws out a weapon)..
Axl Dwight
Throws it at harpie
The chain grips Harpie tightly around the waist
She flaps her wings viciously trying to wrig away
Axl Dwight
Axl pulls her to the ground in one tug
Harpie bolts into the ground
Falling flat on her back unable to get back up
Roomp
STEAM REAM; FIFTH ORDER -
A powerful burst of white light flash through the woods in an instant
Roomp
[groaning painfully]
They both stagger while covering their hurting eyes
Axl Dwight
(appears quickly behind Roomp)..
Axl Dwight
(Strikes him down)..
In an instant he’d gone and appears right above slug descending on him with a spin kick
Axl Dwight
(Walks over to harpie)..
Axl picks up the box lying next to her
Axl Dwight
Can’t believe I went through so much trouble tracking these guys?..
Axl Dwight
More disappointing I can’t believe I was ordered such a mission; chasing down common thieves.
Axl Dwight
“They’re not even very good at what they do”
Axl Dwight
“They aren’t even much of a nuisance as people painted them to be”...
Axl Dwight
“Makes you wonder why it’s taken so long to apprehend them”..
Axl Dwight
“That’s not all there is to them.”..
Sfx
You should’ve just walked away when you still could.
Sfx
(Places a blade at the edge of Axls neck)..
Sfx
You lost your chance to escape.
Axl Dwight
Guess I have no order choice but to surrender
Sfx moves Axl back holding him at the point of his blade
Axl Dwight
You’ve got me already. Why don’t you show yourself.
Sfx
That’s the nature of my job.
Axl Dwight
To stay anonymous
Axl Dwight
Completely unknown and unmentioned
Axl Dwight
Your gang is known to be the sleight mystery
Axl Dwight
I always thought that referred to their quick operation
Axl Dwight
And how no one ever was able to apprehend them after contact
Axl Dwight
Rumor is that there is a mysterious technique the gang use to escape unfavorable situations
Axl Dwight
Normally it would be assumed to be a ream technique possessed by one of the three gang members
Axl Dwight
But on the contrary..
Axl Dwight
None of it’s none of them
Axl Dwight
Everyone trying to confront the gang would have their eyes out for three culprits
Axl Dwight
They’d never expect a fourth member who had been constantly kept secret by the members either on purpose or otherwise
Axl Dwight
Thing is... in every operation no one would be looking out for you
Axl Dwight
A secret weapon so to say
Axl Dwight
Especially one with your technique.
Axl Dwight
A REAM ability which gives allows you to blend in plain sight of your surroundings
Axl Dwight
Remaining unseen to the plain eye even when you’re present
Sfx
You seem very chatty to have found this out just now.
Axl Dwight
Anyone with basic tactics training would realize they were areas your boss roomp blatantly avoided when using his steam attack
Axl Dwight
Two spots close to my line of contact but he always avoided even if it jeopardizes the efficiency of his attack
Axl Dwight
One up the trees and one in the husk of bushes below
Sfx
Having known all this, you are aware I can’t let you live right
Sfx
(Angles his blade for a cut)
A force wave emitted from him pushing Sfx back
Sfx is sent flying and he crashed into a tree fast and hard.
The tree snaps in half slowly letting its top part fall towards Sfx who lied unconsciously below it.
the trunk hits the ground sending dusts and leaves up in the air.
When the area clears Axl is found standing with Sfx thrown over his shoulder
Axl Dwight
This is such a bother
Axl finish tying up the four culprits to a thick tree.
Axl Dwight
(dusts his hands and salutes)...
Axl Dwight
Guess that will be all for tonight
Axl Dwight
Would have waited with you but I also would hate to be found by my comrades
Axl Dwight
Well, good luck.
