Agent walked up behind the short goblin, bringing her flames down to a simmer. She traced a rune with her finger on the top of his bald head as shells from his arm cannon trickled to the ground much like a brass waterfall.

Agent again turned on her flaming aura and poured fire in all directions around her self and the small goblin-cannon. However this time the flames from Agent danced around Podo not touching his skin. He only noticed a comforting reassuring wave of heat at Agent’s proximity.

Burst fire erupted around Agent and Podo as a second sniper team appeared on an adjacent roof top. Most the bullets were wide or started spinning inaccurately as the lead softened in Agent’s heat. Agent placed herself between Podo and the 2nd sniper team to provide him cover while he hosed the first group.

Agent sent a fireball up to greet the 2nd group of snipers,. Not having the proper angle to hit them directly she passed the fireball above their heads to rain fire down on them. Alternating between fireballs and fire-blast Agent succeeded in keeping their heads down and creating somewhat of a smoke screen at their position.

((Khell: Can you give me more detail on the environment? How much ceiling we have. Are buildings accessable or are they like CoX? General size in blocks of the active area. What zone would it most resembles?))

As the numbers count down Agent took a few steps away from the others as the heat from her body intensified. Just as the numbers hit 00 flames erupted around her in red, orange and blue, the smoke from her lips darkened, and as she tightened her fist a flaming scimitar appeared in her hand.

Agent rested the sword on her shoulder and looks over to Podo and the others “Shall we?” her voice deeper and crackling, orange embers floating on the gray smoke of her breath.

As the lift climbed the giddy girlish excitement slowly drained from Agent. As the lift passed a dark area before entering the light of the arena cityscape once again Agent’s ornate finely crafted elven armour appeared under her robes. Flames smoldered in her dark eyes as the white smoke appeared on her breathe.

She acknowledged the Rock King with a slight nod of her head, and eyed the unknown (to her) swordsman with mild suspicion. Her robes started flowing gently as waves of warmth began radiating from her gently lifting her golden hair.

Looking down at Podo her mouth twitched slightly as an innocent elf girl tried to smile at the goblin, but something else was taking control.

Somewhere nearby in a control room, someone adjusted the sensitivity of a thermal camera’s sensor as the screen showed Agent as a white bloom of heat.

The smoke on Agent’s breath grayed

The guard looked down at Podo and shrugged.

"I just sent up a rock dude and some guy with a sword. I think they could use whatever help they could get. Just hop on and I'll send you up."

[/ QUOTE ]

With a hop skip and a bounce Agent landed lightly on the platform, smiling cutely.

“Whatsay we join our newest companion in his battles!” Podo said excitedly to Agent Immolate as he leapt from the side of the lava pool and back to the rack, where he put his clothes and sword back on. With a pointy smile that looked odd on a goblin face accented with black eye makeup, the little man beckoned for his elven ally to follow him. “Shalt thou accompany me to the lowest arena, friend?”

[/ QUOTE ]

'Certainly, I would be glad to" Agent sung happily. "Though these Arachnos are not my sworn enemy, I'd be honored to fight by your side in battle" Sparks and flames puffed breifly from her eyes at the mention of the word battle.

Rising from the lava AI dismissed the mischievious Fire Imps with a wave of her hand and they sunk harmlessly into the lava.

Agent's scarlet and gold robes returned billowing out from her body like shaped fire on air currents of heat as she walked to Podo. The waves of heat dissipated as she reached Podo and her robes settled into proper place.

The goblin warrior and the strange elf girl walked quickly with excitement to the Arena lifts for the next combat.

"And who might you be, a princess"

***

AI blushed warmly at the “Princess” remark; with a charming smile she bowed to the king “Your majesty I am Agent Immolate”.

Reaching into the pool with one hand AI whispers a word and three fire imps boiled to the lava’s surface. The first imp started brushing out AI’s hair with a fiery comb. The second massaged her legs with lava. The third wasn’t quite right and staggered around on the lava’s surface fell a few times then sunk beneath the surface of the pool. AI reached into the pool and rescued the third imp and cradled him in her arms gently stroking the little creature.

AI followed Podo to the spa and watched him sample the tubes. She shed her robes with a flash of bright flame. Covering her private places with fire, sat on the edge of the lava tube and dangled her legs into the lava.

She smiled politely at the rock man in the tube and enjoyed the intense heat.

The little green man, seeming to be brimming with confidence, held out his arms wide with a smile. “Let us celebrate our new alliance and friendship!” he beckoned. “Methinks I have heard tell of a spa for gladiators such as myself and thee. Mayhap we shall journey to this place to take a minute respite to prepare ourselves for the next battle?”

[/ QUOTE ]

“You idea sounds splendid” AI said gleefully. “The upcoming battle shall be great the Thorns will pay for their thousands of years of vileness!” Deep inside of AI a tremendous roar bellowed eager for battle, eager for revenge. Outwardly her eyes glowed orange.

AI rose to her full height ready to follow the small goblin to this wondrous spa.

“But I dost not even know thy name, ally! Speak it, I plead, for I cannot be a true companion if I cannot even address thee in proper fashion!”

[/ QUOTE ]

AI knelt down to be even with Podo, smoothed her robes with a graceful stroke of her delicate fingers.

Looking directly into Podo’s eyes in a soft musical voice she said “Hello little warrior I am Aeonnoyna Illoyneiass, but here I am know by Agent Immolate.” With a tantalizing motion she extended her hand while bowing slightly. "I would be glad to have an ally such as you."

AI’s robes and golden hair flowed in the waves of heat radiating from her body. Flames bubbled from her eyes and coal black smoke escaped her taunt lips. Her hand clenched tightly around an invisible sword that wasn’t there her body stiff as she resisted the urge to pounce on the wretched mage.

Once the Archmage left AI took a moment to concentrate and reigned in the flames. She proceeded to the registration desk and lifted the signup sheet in her delicate fingers.

She muttered a chant to reveal any illusions then examined the list very carefully. Satisfied she immediately added her name to the list.

Turning back to face Podo, all the heat was dismissed, and no visible trace of her anger remained, in contrast she was smiling broadly, and bouncing lightly on her heels in girlish excitement.

A surprised expression was evident in AI’s face “I did not know the Arena allowed such things.” The fiery glimmer in her eyes sharpened to a bright pinpoint of flames. “Who is responsible for arranging such things?”

[ QUOTE ]
“I give thou my most sincere word that I shall assist thee with all of my power, if thee so ask of me.” Podo replied, looking concerned. “Thou hast performed a great charity upon my head, tis true, and this small warrior feels a debt to thee. Tell me of thy troubles, good elven ally.” He pleaded.

[/ QUOTE ]

Her brow in a slight frown "I was hoping that some of the damnable Thorns would sign up for this battle" as she speaks a red glow glimmers deep in her eyes, the wisp of white smoke from her mouth thicken slightly (but stays white) "I have only come here to continue my battle against the Circle. The last match I entered I needed to prove myself here, and I hoped that the Thorns would participate in that battle"

Her tone deepens as she asserts some control over something deep inside her "The Thorn mage Raxiurgiux fled here for sanctuary” A brief ember pops from her eyes, as the temp rises noticeably “However the coward has yet to step into the arena” with a sigh the flames, heat and smoke subside.

AI looked down at Podo and a bright smile erupted across her face, and for a moment podo was bathed in warmth.

"Hello small warrior" the smile faded slightly as she glanced back at the list "I am not sure if you can aid me." Her voice a musical sad note.

AI took note of the increased activity as day took its hold. Since no Thorns left during her evening vigil, she proceeded back inside. In a flash of brilliant flame her ornate armour disappeard and again she was clothed in her scarlet and golden robes.

As she glided back into the lobby, she noticed the poster and skipped over to it. She took her time reading it, then lightly skipped over to the desk and more slowly she scanned the list of those signed up for the next days event. Flames shimmered in her eyes as she scanned down the page reading each name, with a pout of disappointment she replaced the sheet unsigned.

((OoC: I have been monitoring the thread, but just didnt have anything to post. AI isnt that social Been trying to come up with a new RP toon (villain origin prefered), but my game toons are kinda flat, and the toons I have available dont fit well into a CoX sys so I am waiting on Khells post for the next event))

((so yall are just gonna kill me off like i wasnt even there ))

[/ QUOTE ]

((Ry you weren’t killed off, it wasn’t a last man standing event. Someone reached the center and that contest ended. These threads need to happen somewhat dynamically they can’t stop indefinitely because 1 player can’t/didn’t post.))

AI disappeared in a ball of flame that seemed to blow itself out before her lift reached the floor.

She reappeared outside the Coliseum, in a similar ball of fire and smoke. She was full healed and rested, and again wearing her ornate armour with her silken robes of scarlet and gold.

She then began to circle the Coliseum leaping from roof top to roof top keeping watch on its various exit points. (If the Coliseum is under ground she will lurk the tunnels in the same manner (except for the leaping ))

[ QUOTE ]
Nodding at Eok's retaliation, Chertak lined up Agent's head in the crosshair's and opened fire once again.

[/ QUOTE ]

***

AI (or something deeper and darker inside of her) infuriated by being restrained exploded in fire flame and fury. Waves of heat and flames blasted the walls, ceiling and Eok himself blistering his hard outer skin. Eok’s concentration lapsed as he was surrounded by the fire. AI in her fury leapt forward at him just as Chertak’s blast smashed into the wall above where she just was.

While grabbing Eok’s neck with one of her scalding hands her other holding his blaster arm at bay, flames from her eyes boiled out to envelope his face. She forced him to turn with surprising strength for her delicate elven frame placing Eok between Chernak and herself. Black smoke and bright embers poured from AI’s mouth and nostrils. Deep inside of her a voice (that she could not possibly make) screamed hollered and hooted with crackling laughter at Eok’s impending doom. Ripping the barrier between the planes again, liquid fire started pooling around AI and Eok wrapping them in a pillar of fire. Eok tried to grasp his medi-beacon himself with one flailing arm but missed it. It wasn’t kicking in soon enough!

((awaiting responce to previous action))

[ QUOTE ]
BIC: Agent's powerful flaming sword melted through the Guardian's shield in an instant, causing the Rikti to howl in agony until its medi-beacon switched on and it teleported away. The second Guardian drew back its arm and pistol whipped Agent in the back of the head while Eok stumbled back, coughing and choking on the ash.

Chertak proped his blade up against the wall and then drew and fired his repulsor rifle at Agent.

The other Malta were closing to melee range with AI, sapsticks and tasers drawn. Another super for the ranks.

[/ QUOTE ]

***

AI turned furiously at the attacking Guardian. Penetrating his shield with a slow hand she filled the bubble with flames to incinerate the offending Rikti. As Chertak’s blast burned into her back she leapt over the cremated Guardian and left a fireball in the ranks of the advancing Malta

Using the flame filled bubble for cover AI resummoned her fiery blade and pounced on the choking Mentalist. Wreathed in flames the air cooked around her, as she brought the blade down on his head.

[ QUOTE ]
Taking another step forward, Chertak feinted a lunge with his blade and then spun to the side, opening up a clear line of fire. The two Guardians simoltainiously fired their pistols and Eok launched a powerful mental attack.

[/ QUOTE ]

Coward! Something inside of her made her spit a wade of flaming distain on Chertak (in a remarkably un-elf like way).

Which out hesitation she pounced on the two guardians. She struck the near one hard with her flaming blade. When Eok’s mental assault pounded her mind. Summoning some green fire to repair the damage by Eok, she again pulled ash and soot from the elemental plane to choke the mentalist.

AI is not sure what had spared her nor did it matter to the flamed spirit inside her. With the elf girls influence weakened the fiery spirit broke free. It bellowed a great roar summoning the fiery Phoenix to him. The great bird’s wings blasted out grand showers of golden sparks as it flew to the Great Spirit. At his command it traveled across the planes to reach the limp elf girl.

AI’s eyes shot open as the image of the great Phoenix burst from her body. In an explosion of fire AI rose from the floor in a violent blaze. Her armour and robes incinerated instantly in the intense heat.

The blast rushed toward Chertak instinctively he lifted his warblade to shield himself from the river of fire. The flames rushed past Chertak wrapping around his defense shield and continued on toward the Malta who were faced toward Caper.

Lowering his warblade Chertak turned to see the young elf fully immolated in flames. She advanced slowly with purpose carrying a huge flaming sword. The flames warped the walls as she passed, and where each bear foot stepped the floor melted away into molten steel dripping into the hydraulics below. Chertak knew she was pissed and he was in for a fight.

[ QUOTE ]
A Guardian cast a powerful shield on the burning agent. When the man's satchel charges exploded, the explosion was contained and no one else was injured. That Guardian then fell back, his shield generator depleted for the time being. Chertak came charging up behind, his warblade already drawn and ready. Jumping over Reikoff's head, Chertak brought the heavy blade down on Agent's head. The Rikti was pissed that he had already lost a man and wanted to take down Caper but this other hero would suffice in the mutant's place.


[/ QUOTE ]

Too focused in anticipation of the exploding soldier, AI didn’t notice the Rikti until it was already too late. She had barely moved enough to safe her own life when the blade came crashing down on her head. She shifted backwards and to the left avoiding the major force of the blow, at least to her head. Her shoulder took the remaining force of the strike and wasn’t happy about it at all. Her right arm hung limp at her side, her shoulder plate sheared off of her armour.

AI took a defiant stance flames flaring up from her eyes in hatred, then promptly fell flat on her butt legs sprawled before her. The flames from her eyes stopped as blood dark and hot ran down her face.

[ QUOTE ]
Reikoff and the Malta scattered.

"It's a flamer! Cryos fire!"

Several of the Agents threw our cryogenic bullets and grenades, cold enough to make the Winter Lord shiver, hoping to offset the fire.

[/ QUOTE ]

AI's flames withered in the cryogenic assault. Their weapons rounds now pierced the fiery aura that normally shields her, smacked and dented her armour. She needed to act quickly! She grabbed the nearest Malta soldier and forced her hand in his face and poured ash and soot from the elemental plane for him to choke on, then balanced on her heels she turned and threw the soldier at the others. A fireball placed into his explosives satchel as a gift. The flaming warrior inside her raged and vommited flames in fury, spat curses in crackling licks of flames. He wanted out, he wanted to burn it all.

[ QUOTE ]

The Malta rounded the corners and opened up blindly into Agent Immolate, laying down suppression fire for their Rikti comrades to get to cover.

[/ QUOTE ]

AI cartwheeled and somersaulted down the hallway to close the distance with each flip and turn the heat and flames grew brighter. Some bullets where dodged other melted and splattered against her ornate armour. Her last flip landed her in the middle of the firing malta, again the roar of laughter from deep inside echoed inaudibly through her soul. Her body erupted in flames in all directions as she set out to combust all of the malta agents.
