5/28/13: FLAMES ON THE PACIFIC
LIVE GAME - MEMORIAL DAY
PARTICIPANTS: LOUP GAROU, MANTIS, FIGULUS, DRYAD, SNOW ANGEL, ZEPHYR, SCOTSMAN, GAS GUZZLER (NOW PLAYED BY SAM Z.)
On this momentous day, everyone seemed to arrive back at AlertForce Mansion at around the same time (Mantis from assignment in DC, Zephyr and Loup from Alaska, Figulus and Dryad arriving on government assignment to assist with repair of the three androids, and Guzzler returning after having dispatched all of his evil clones off to jail with extreme prejudice). The reunion was short-lived, however, as moments after everyone began exchanging pleasantries, a sudden tremor and a plume of steam rising from the pacific just offshore of AlertForce Mansion ruined the moment.
Running to the western side of the mansion to see what was happening, the group was shocked to see a great rift forming on the beach below the Manse, from which red-hot liquid Magma was beginning to issue, bubbling out onto the beach and into the ocean. At the same time, the all-too-familiar forms of humanoid flame spirits began to spring forth and take to the air, heading straight for Zephyr.
Zephyr took flight herself, trying to draw the flames away from the mansion. Figulus and Dryad (who were still in Figulus' flying car) headed over AlertForce Mansion for a better view, while Guzzler and Loup leapt into the air to attack some of the spirits.
Meanwhile, at a nearby hospital, Snow Angel, fresh from having helped Number 10 back to health, walked into the parking lot and saw from a distance the plume of steam and the rising flames, and sprang into the air to help.
An intense battle ensued, which saw Zephyr and Snow Angel snuffing out a number of the fire spirits with air pressure and ice, respectively, Guzzler and Loup unsuccessfully attacking fire spirits by leaping at them, Figulus and Dryad stalling their car on the roof of AlertForce Mansion, and the Scotsman summoning his ancestral form and magic steed, and climbing skyward to attack.
At this time, a giant fire spirit climbed up from the depths of the magma, and towered above the fray, some 80 feet tall. In his hand he held immobile a demon, and with a wave of his hand, a palpable wall of fear struck AlertForce (and friends) with a heavy stroke. Many were at least momentarily stunned, some openly fled, while others (who shall remain nameless but who smell like gasoline) stood immobile and quivering at the sight of the massive flame spirit.
After shrugging off the effects of the fear wall, the Scotsman approached and took a swing at the giant with his magic sword. This caused fear in the spirit, who summoned all of his fire minions to his aid. They had been chasing Zephyr around the sky, but immediately hurtled back towards their leader, under threat from a sword-wielding Scotsman.
The battle raged for several rounds more, in which Mantis freed the demon being held by the giant fire spirit, who was in fact former Alertforce member Speed Demon, who had apparently been magically imprisoned by the Fire Spirit leader, and forced to bring the spirits to find Zephyr. The battle also saw Snow Angel effectively taking out several more fire spirits, Zephyr attacking both the spirits and the leader, the Scotsman dealing grievous magical damage to the beast with his mystic sword, and Figulus and Loup Garou teaming up with a well place laser blast to complement two devastating martial attacks, that combined to overwhelm the massive creature's defenses, and snuffed his flame forever.
When their leader dissipated, all of the other spirits shortly lost their flame, and turned to ash, blowing in the winds and the surf of the pacific.
As the dust slowly settled over the mansion, the beach and the ocean, all that remained of the battle was a black stone scar on the beach, where the bubble of magma had broken the ground's surface just at the edge of the beach.
After the battle, many of the teammates learned for the first time that during the fight, Mister Mystico and Dr. Fate had arrived, and had for the entire time exherted magical force, pressing the magma back down, thereby preventing the thousands of other fire spirits from emerging. They were thanked profusely for this effort.
Teamwork and strength in the face of a fearsome foe allowed AlertForce and its allies to win the day.
AWARD: 12hp.
