Title: RAF 2.0
Post by: Blazing Angel on June 20, 2011, 01:32:48 PM
This story is heavily based off a series of videos made an RAFian named blue22 that either means big blue with a different name or a deleted account. Either way I would like to thank him/here for inspiring me. If you cant to see the videos their on newground . com. Type in Animorph in the search box.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
I was just getting on the computer and remembered that RAF was going back up today. It had been down for two weeks while Richard performed some kind of maintenance  with new software. I went through the regular routine of logging on then a small window popped up. It read "Would you like to participate in RAF 2.0?" I clicked yes then things got weird. My computer started glowing, blindingly white and then I felt a gentle tugging, somewhere around the small of my back that got more and more forcefull until I was thrown face first into the console. Then I was flying. Flying through a black tunnel. The walls were covered with what appeared to be binary code with 1's and 0's blinking in and out of whatever existence that this was. "What did I eat last night?" I muttered.

I landed in some kind of massive treehouse. The place was huge, multi-leveled with bridges connecting separate areas and structures. Then I saw a slightly pale kid walking toward me. "Hi!" he said. I was still in shock but then I noticed he was wearing a green shirt.

"R- Ru- Rukh!?" I managed to sputter out. The boy laughed and said "Yeah it's me. I was pretty shocked to when I saw this. It's mind blowing. RAF is now completely interactive. I heard Richard got a massive donation from some company to test out their new software. Check out what I can do here!" He gave me a wide grin and then collapsed into a pile of goo.

"Gah" I yelled. "Next time warn me when your going to do that!" He turned back into a human and grinned apologetically "Sorry part of the whole virtual forum thing is taken on our persona's. Have you looked behind yourself lately?" he said. I instinctively turned around. Their was nothing behind me but when I moved I heard a "whoosh." Confused i craned my head over my shoulder. Then I had a small heart attack. I had wings, beautiful and glorious wings that were made of brillant feathers of red gold and orange that at the same time were on fire.

Rukh laughed again and said, "Why don't you give those things a try?!"  I just stared at him with the same look you give to your friend when he suggests that they play Halo. That might just be me but I gave him the same look. He smirked at me. "I just turned into a pile of goo. How much of a stretch is it to think that you can fly here, IN RICHARD'S ANIMORPHS FORUM!" He then raised him hands dramatically.

 I gave him the look again. "What muscle do I even use?" "Just think about flying. Picture where you want to go and how high." I gave him one more "look" and then closed my eyes picturing myself rising, higher and higher. I felt my feet leave the ground. Then I opened my eyes. I was high above Rukh, a good thirty feet. That was a mistake. I started to panic and fell. Plummeting toward the bridge at high speed.

I hit the floor hard but it didn't hurt. I could feel everything, the hard floor, the shock from the fall, the terror. But their was no pain. Why should their be, here in a virtual forum where nothing is real and everything is permitted.

*giggles* Assassin's Creed reference.

I like it so far, but i have a suggestion.  It's more aesthetically pleasing when stories are separated into different paragraphs, and less daunting than one big block of text. 

But, as I said, I do like it so far.

I picked myself off the floor and gave Rukh one last look. He had a pretty big grin on his face that only got wider when I used the look. "So how impressive did I look" I inquired while still staring at him. He replied "Pretty awesome man, those wings are fantastic. So did you read Richards message?"

I looked around and said "Um how do we check our messages? The moment that I said that a PDA appeared in front of me . On the screen was a page a lot like the normal message box with the list of Pm's. Their was a single message that read "New RAF Introduction" a mouse scrolled down and clicked on it.

Suddenly Rukh and I were floating in space. In front of us was a cloaked figure standing on some kind of platform. At first I didn't know who he was but then he spoke. It was a cool and calming voice that at the same time had a sense of authority. This was the Father of RAF. The king of animorphs. The forums great founder. This was Richard.

He started to explain all the aspects of the new RAF. Their was a series of portals that lead to the different sections of the forum. Inside each one was the subsections that divided them into more specific areas. I made a mental note to make the battledome my first stop. Then he said that any banned users would be given a chance to redeem themselves and are welcomed back with open arms.

The message ended and I was suddenly back inside the treehouse with Rukh. He said "So where do you want to-" "Battledome" I said flatly. 'But first can I get a cloak like Richard had?" I added in. "Sure just think about clothes and that PDA will appear and you can customize your look."

I did as he said and a variety of cloaks appeared. I started scrolling down the list and finally settled on one as a grin made its way onto my face. I selected it and the air started to shimmer around me.  It glowed brighter until I was wearing an exact duplicate of the cloak Ezio wears in the hit video game Assassins Creed Brotherhood. Rukh raised an eyebrow. "You an Assassins Creed fan?" "Big time."

Post by: Blazing Angel on July 01, 2011, 08:16:38 PM
On the way up the elevator I discovered that I could fold my wings back, like paper to fit inside my cloak without any obvious lumps. I kept them that way, as fantastic as they were I think I'd wait to suprise a few people with them. After jumping through the portal that lead to the bored board I saw a comfortably furnished room with a sound system, a massive TV, and bean bags as far as the eye could see.

The place was crowded but the room seemed to slowly grow as more people poured in. Next to the TV was a completely normal looking door with the word "Battledome" printed neatly above. I tapped Rukh who was still looking around in amazement and pointed out the door. Without a word we both started jogging toward it. Right in front of the door two boys I didn't recognize appeared in front of me.

One was dressed as the terminator, and the other one looked like Anakin Skywalker. The terminator said in a fake accent "We challenge you to a battle!" I stared at him for about 30 seconds. And coolly said "Does the battledome even allow two on two fights?" He seemed less confident after I said that. Probably waiting there for a while waiting to pull it on some nervous newbies. Then after a moment of silence in response to my question a sign appeared next to the battledome door that read

Games allowed:
1 on 1
2 on 2
3 on 3
free for all

"Hmm I guess we can do two on two. Anyway my names Blaze and this is Rukh. What do they call you?" The terminator wannabe recovered and replied with a little attitude, "I'm ArnoldSN and this is AnikenFan178. So what are we waiting for lets battle!" Without another word he walked through the door and disappeared into darkness. Before following him I asked Aniken a question.

"Have either of you even read an animorphs book?" He looked at me curiously and replied "What's an animorph?" Without waiting for an answer he walked in after his friend. Rukh and I grinned at each other. This was going to be fun.

Post by: Blazing Angel on July 04, 2011, 04:56:38 PM
Rukh and I followed our new opponents through the doorway. For about ten seconds we were walking in complete darkness down a wide corridor. Without warning the floor was gone.

Time seemed frozen as were suspended i midair before plummeting like in an old cartoon. I tried to pull my wings out of the cloak but they kept getting tangled. I perform pretty well under pressure most of the time, but now I was in a complete panic But I didn't scream. That wouldn't help anything.

And just as suddenly as it started the falling stopped. We were suspended in midair, floating in an infinity of darkness. Then lines started to appear. Green lines. Drawing items into the room. Chairs, carpeting, a high ceiling roughly forty feet off the floor. It was like being inside some kind of four dimensional etch-a-sketch.

Then color settled in. We were in some kind of auditorium, like you would see in a school. All the chairs were facing a large screen at the end. Near the front were Arnold and Ani apparently waiting for something. Then a cool female voice said "Please be seated, the presentation is about to begin."  Still stunned Rukh and I sat down in the third row of chairs. Almost immediately a video started. A young guy, maybe 19 was standing on what looked like a roof top in New York.

he was about six feet with red hair fashioned into a military style cut. He looked nice enough standing there with a grin, wearing a pair of comfortable looking jeans and a T-shirt. Then he started talking. "Hello my name is Phoenix, and this is the battledome" Ah Phoenix, he was always my favorite mod. Probably because both our names involve fire, wings, and flying.

He raised his arms gesturing to the city around him. "Of course this isn't the only place to fight in. Not by a longshot. You can choose practically any place, real or fictional, to brawl, in. This just happens to be one of my favorites. Here's a few more to give you a few ideas for your first match." With that he combusted. The guy was on fire, completely burning right before our eyes. Arnold let out a high pitched yelp. Tough guy.

The fire stopped and in the place of the jolly guy was a bird, It was if you took the feathers from my wings and put them on a combination of a rooster and a parrot. It was a tall bird about up to my knee with the same feathers that I had. The thing was beautiful, with glistening black eyes, a razor sharp beak, and of course the amazing colors. Then it took flight.

The camera followed the Phoenix curving at an angle that showed it from the top. We could easily see the bird in flight and the city under it. Then without word the terrain changed. Instead of an endless city it was mount everest absolutely massive, covered in snow and dominating a mountain range surrounding it.

Then it was...Venice? Yes definitely Venice Italy with canals running alongside the streets. Then the scenes began to shift real places, different time periods, places I had only seen in movies and games. Paris, Gettysburg,  Rome, Pokemon stadiums, The Hindenburg, and a dozen others. All flashing by as Phoenix flew over.

Then he was back in New York.. He landed on the Stature of Liberty and burst into flames again. When it died out the bird was gone and the red head was back. He smiled at us and said, "Now that you've seen a few places It's time to show you how your going to fight."

If a mod is reading this could you move it to general fan fictions? I apparently had a brain fart that made me think that anything to do with RAF has to do with animorphs.





Behind him the city started to disappear. Fading slowly into a pure white room. Then out of the ground a wall started to grow. Higher and higher, pretty similar to the ones they have to hold tools in sheds. But these weren't normal construction tools, unless you were planning to wage war with steel girders and wood. Weapons.

Normal ones, like guns and hunting knives right next to the arsenals from video games, books, movies, and other stuff. Most of them had small modifications like a portal gun had a switch on the side, maybe to activate some kind of laser attachment. Phoenix started to talk again. "Well this is the armory. Rows and rows of weapons that you can only use here."

"Your allowed to choose two per match to use however you want. And when I say that I mean it." The screen switched to video of who I assumed was Demos beating goom with.....a bow. No arrows he was just whacking him with it. It cut back to Phoenix who was trying to hold in a laugh. "Most weapons do more damage when used the way that they were programmed to, but using them unconventionally can win you a match."

"The weapons will appear in your hands whenever you think about them so you can keep one a secret till the end, to catch your opponent off guard. Along with weapons you will have enhanced strength, incredible running speed, and the ability to jump a good thirty feet in the air. Along with those you will also have the powers that come to your persona naturally like even more strength or flight along with a few restrictions to keep things fair."

He paused to take a breath after that mouthfull. Man that guy has some huge lungs. "Also you will choose three abilities. Two normal ones for your fighting with limitations on how much you can use them so that you couldnt set the whole place on fire. And then your third is your.....special move." At that he gave us a mischevious grin.

"The special move was done simply. All your informaiton and posts were entered into the computer and it came with with a custom made attack that you can use by filling up a bar. You fill it up by landing hits on your enemy. If you don't like it you can make your own again with restrictions so that it isn't too powerful."

"Now that's all you need to know so get ready to enter the battledome!" He concluded.

Then the clip ended and the screen went blank. I heard a whooshing noise from behind. I looked back. A door had opened inside I could see the same weapon shelves that Phoenix was standing in front of. Their was a half second of hesitation and then everyone in the room made a made dash through the door.

It was a weapon collectors dream. Thousands of weapons all hanging from walls. Each one unique and amazing looking. Then they started to move rearranging themselves. The shelves were sliding left, right, forwards, backwards, and all ways diagonal, until they finally settled with four shelves directly in front of us. Above each one a sign appeared that had our respective screen names displayed.

I took the name labeling to mean that these were the recommended weapons for each of our personalities and skills. As if some invisible force had commanded it we started to move in sync toward our respective shelves. Yeah the computer had matched me perfectly. Their were two gauntlets with a metal glove attached for increased punching power. I suspected what they were but I had the check to make sure. I slipped them on and said clearly "What do these do?"

At the question the PDA appeared again. It started to grow, stretching to the size of a small flatscreen TV. A model of the gauntlets appeared on the screen and a robotic voice started to list the traits of the weapons. "Assassin gauntlets. Origins, Assassins Creed 2. Weapon continued to be used in the games sequel Assassins Creed Brotherhood. Original traits, an eight inch blade in each gauntlet, small firearm in left gauntlet with six bullets, poison pouch in left gauntlet which weakens opponents and slows reflexes."

"New features," It continued. "a 24 inch blade above the wrist on  the left gauntlet. Recommended for user due to interest in series." It concluded. After that the TV disappeared. I was definetilly keeping these puppies, even if they couldn't launch poison darts like in the game. After scanning a bit more I picked up a bow and a quiver of fifteen arrows, give or take. Beung the kind of guy that doesn't like to waste ammo I asked "Are the arrows retrievable?"

Since this was kind of a small question the PDA didn't appear instead a thought speak voice like in Animorphs simply said <Yes.> OK I had my equipment. I saw a small area in the corner of the shelf that read "attatchments". I headed over there. On a small table was a series of labeled modifications for each weapon. For the Assassin Gauntlets their were only three. A small packet of darts, probably poisoned, extra ammo for the gun, and a hookblade attatchment for one of the hidden blades.

The hookblade was supposed to be mainly for te purpose of faster climbing but I had wings so I dismissed that right away. After some brief thikning I chose the darts. The bullets were usefull but that was already ranged, and if arnold or ani chose to use ranged weapons a poisoned blade wouldn't help much. After I picked it up the other gear dissapeared, but the attatchments for the bow didn't so I guess that means one per weapon.

For the bow I saw a slightly larger bow, probably for greater power and longer distance shooting. There was slo a compound one, smaller for less range but more acuracy. Finally their was a small card that said "Five arrows have explosive tips" Without any hesitation I chose that and then headed over to check on Rukh.

Rukh had some interesting choices. Probably because he can change into almost anything that he could imagine. The weapons on the wall were all about power. Next to each other were a Sparta cannon and a belt full of plasma grenades, both from Halo.

He was duel-wielding portal guns. One had a bright orange symbol and the other had a blue one. I also saw what looked like a flamethrower underbelly. The other one had something I didn't recognize attached, looked like a laser, maybe had something to do with ice. Rukh was looking at the expanded PDA the same why I was before the TV disappeared and he was apparently satisfied with what he had learned so he headed over to the attachments without replacing the weapons.

He apparently heard me cyber breathing because he turned around and gave me a big smile. "He Blaze, check this thing out!" He handed the orange portal gun to me and I started to examine it more closely. The flamethrow had a few buttons along the bottom. When I pressed one a small click sounded from the front.

After a brief search I saw that a nozzle had gone over over the oil barrel. Maybe for less spread in the flames? Another button press and some kind of tube went over. Their was also a whirring noise inside. I would ask him about that later. I handed it to him as he began to show me his attachment. It was another card that said "Both guns shoot two portals"

Oh that would be plenty usefull. The portal guns seemed to be pretty good weapons. "What else did you get?" I asked him. 'I got this thing called the death machine. It's this massive gun that shoots bullets bigger than your head!" He smiled enthusiastically. Yeah in this fight he was definitely going to be the powerhouse of this due. That left me strategy, which my weapons were perfect for. "Now let's talk strategy." I said seriously.

I took Rukh over the area farthest away from our opponents as not to be overheard. "OK dude, if we can choose the arena I say we go somewhere that has plenty of space for flight. With my wings and your shapeshifting, dominating the air would peobably be a good way to fight."

He listened and nodded "That's a good idea. But where?" I thought for a second and responded "New York. It's not a closed space. Their will be plenty of places too hide if things get hairy. And my weapons are made for hiding." I said while flipping out the blade from the weapon. "Sounds like a plan." He responded.

Post by: Blazing Angel on July 30, 2011, 02:53:15 PM
Well the portal gun has multiple attatchements. The flamethrower and ice cannon will have three modes each. The regular mode is just spraying fire and sharp pieces of ice. The focused mode shoots fire and ice LAZERS! And the third mode shoots out tiny little exploding balls of magma and frozen nytrogen. so your going to have the power to set someone on fire, give them a bunch of painful cuts, freeze them solid, thaw them out and give them 3'rd degree burns, then at the same time freeze and explode him.

After we finished talking the room dissapeared. Again floating in empty darkness. It was strange but I was already used to it. Then again another room appeared. It was practically identical to the first one accept that instead of weapons their were more of this little paper cards. I headed over to mine and started to read.

I had to see a few before I understood what these were. The abilities that pheonix mentioned were here on this wall. Somewhere above me the robotic voice said "Choose two."

I rad over a couple but none really caught my interest. After about two minutes i picked out a couple that I was happy with. The first one was "Control over fire" and the other one was "Force shield" After some brief time on the PDA I learned that the control over fire would amplify my natural powers over heat and the force shield was pretty much an invisible shield that could blocks attacks to a certain extent. Sweet.

what exactly does techokinesis mean?
Title: Re: RAF 2.0
Post by: RAFrukh on August 21, 2011, 07:46:32 AM
Technokinesis is an advanced form of Technopathy, where the bond between the user and machines has been increased and developed so well, the user can actually work through the machines by psychically animating them or controlling them like puppets. Certain aspects, because indeed most machines today are run by electricity, of the technokinetic talent may involve necessary electrokinetic assistance. Technokinesis is also known as Technology Manipulation or Technopath. Some Technokinetics may use hands to manipulate technology or just stare at it.

That's the best description I could find. But it's like being able to control and interface with all sorts of technology.
Title: Re: RAF 2.0
Post by: Blazing Angel on August 21, 2011, 09:43:04 AM
I have a few ideas for what you can do with that.


Now that I had my abilities I walked to Rukh's wall to see what he was getting.. He was waiting for me. Withot a word he stuck two cards at my face. Techokineses. I searched my memory. I vaguely remembered a person with the same power. Controlling technology with your mind. Arc Lightning. Some sort of control over electricity. "Those are pretty useful. I can control fire and make an energy shield." "Couldn't you always control fire?" "I guess but this will make it stronger." Instead of the entire room disappearing, this time only the floor did. We fell again. I was getting way too used to the sensation. We landed in an unfamiliar area. Their were a couple platforms, each with a green floor and the center one had a pokeball on the center. Oh we were inside Pokemon stadium, the super smash brothers map. The mechanical voice said, "Members newBlazingAngel and RAFrukh. Because you were challenged you choose the arena." Without hesitation we both yelled out "New York, New York!"

Post by: Blazing Angel on August 30, 2011, 10:21:20 PM
Watercolors seemed to fall out of the sky and paint the city. Famous landmarks were created, as if by the brush strokes of some painter. Rukh and I were standing on the Stature of Liberties Torch, with a fantastic view of the whole island. It was weird but I could really feel the enhanced senses. I had eagle like vision and hawk-like hearing. Far away I could see arny and ani standing on top of the Empire State Building. I decided to test what else I had. "Let's see how the range is on our powers." Rukh grinned in response but then his look changed to confusion. "How do we use them?" I pondered the speech and replied "I think we just have to think about them. Focus on getting the maximum distance." I squinted at the building and focused on a ireball. Roughly a quarter of the distance a ball of fire the size pf a basketball appeared mid-air. Beside it a similar one, made of electricity. "That's the best we can do?" He said in disbelief. I smiled at him. "Dude if we could use them at any distance, I could just hide somewhere and set someone on fire until they die. Let's try to launch the energy at them." I focused on the fireball shooting forward. It arched back like an invisible slingshot was being drawn by an invisible four year old.

In my head their was a solid TWANG! and the shot launched at a good one hundred twenty miles per hour. Ani reacted faster. He jumped in front of his partner and held out his hands as if tat would stop it. Right before it would make contact I noticed an odd shimmering in the air in front of him, "THWOK!" As if the fireball had mass, it made a thump as it collided with Ani. I was feeling pretty good until the fire cleared. They were both completely unharmed. "What the....?" I sputtered out. Then realization hit me. The guy took the same power as me, the force shield.

What I try to do is throw in a joke once in a while, like KA. Too me it's a simple way to keep readers attention

Agreed. But what's this about an invisible four-year-old? Did I miss something?

The fight was on. I fell into my best 80's kung fu movie pose. Rukh raised his fists, arnold pulled what looked like an AK47  and aniken laughed at my pose. I stopped the fancy footwork and backed to the other end of the railing. I started sprinting toward the other side. Right before I cracked a rib on the railing I raised my leg and placed my foot on the railing. Then I pushed . I must have looked like some kind of massive dove. Pheonix wasn't kidding when he said we would have enhanced strength. I went a good thirty feet straight up and slowly arced downwards until I was doing a swandive from 300 feet. The rush was insane. None of this was real but it felt that way. The wind rushed by me and I was practically high on adrenaline. I was going to spend a lot of time here.

Their was a tremendous SMACK as I hit the water. Of course, I wasn't feeling any pain. Just a computer generated cold from the water. I felt like I could hold my breath forever. Then I started to swim. Doing an underwater breaststroke took me pretty far. My head bumped gently against a sea wall. Bobbing slowly forward I looked back at the Statue of Liberty. Giant chunks of of it were missing. As i watched a red laser streaked toward the place and blew the top right corner of Lady Liberties book. That Aniken guy had horrible aim. Then I got another one of my crazy ideas. After going about thirty feet under the water I started to swim with all my improved strength. My crazy ideas apparently work in virtual reality. I rocketed like shamu over the sea wall. At that point my crazy idea went the same way that they usually do in real life, with my crashing through a taxi's windshield.
