((I'm going to pretend Helmacrons have horrible hearing ))

The swollen monster said that he was just laughing at a humorous event.

I didn't believe him.

<How dare you lie to your superior!!! I am a Helmacron! I know when my inferiors are lying –– or laughing at me!>

He got up and headed to the door.

<GET BACK HERE you insolent fool! Don't turn your back to me when I talk to you!>

[Chad32]

This creature really was arrogant. Claxter turned back around and walked closer to him. How could he call himself superior? <and n what way are you superior to me? Please enlighten this "ignorant" Andalite?> He said.

[Terenia]

Terenia's concentration is broken when three other beings enter the forray. Ossanlin she recognizes immediately, and her first instinct is to yell at him to leave her alone. She decides, however, that now may not be the best time to remind him of her bitterness, and holds her thoughts. Then a human and a lizard-like creature exit the bar. Terenia is too distracted to pay much attention, but she could have sworn the human was wielding a whip as well.

What the hell is this, the Wild West meets Anne Rice? she wonders just as the vampire leaps behind her. Foolish move, she thinks with an Andalite smile. Her tail may be immobile, but her strong Andalite legs can pack a pack a punch that is almost as strong as a full-grown horse, with a direct hit. She waits for him to prepare a lunge and, once he has forward momentum, she kicks backwards with her hind legs as hard as she can, using her arms to maintain balance since her tail cannot.

[Stephquiem]

Fiona turns on her stool to see what was going on... and took a minute to finally see the little creature on a stool nearby. "The hell?" She hops off her stool and moves to get a better look.

[Midnight_Huntress]

Silver sent an illusion of flame around Fredrick trapping him where he was. She stood in front of him weaving her illusion as the flames felt real.

[BaronConall]

I watched the Vampire jump over my whip-arm, landing behind the centaur, getting ready to bite. At that moment, I thought it was all over, until he paused, in some kind of distress. He's fast. Almost as fast as me. Huh. Well then, now or never.

I retract my whip-arm and lash out again while the vampire is paused and distracted, aiming for his diaphragm, with the intention of anchoring him to me and pulling him in close to restrain him.

At this point, the collective aura of thousands of people surrounds me as I call upon their collective biomass to achieve what most would think to be impossible, elongating my limbs and altering my body on a genetic level. My aura is now nothing but collective rage, hunger and power.

[RAFrukh]

The Andalite turned around, <And n what way are you superior to me? Please enlighten this "ignorant" Andalite?>

<Well you...I mean...you are...inferior in the...MOST OBVIOUS WAYS!! You are arrogant. You are...primitive. And most disgustingly ignorant!>

*Rethwaa* I hated myself right now. I was a Helmacron! I was the best! But whenever someone cronfronts me, I always beck down for a moment, timid....

[Chad32]

Fredrick finally tasted her blood, though he had to grab her tail instead of her neck. He drained a bit of blood, but left some intoxicating energy that would corrupt her and make her dependant on him. He was surprised when he felt the Andalite's hooves nail him in the chest. He was watching the tail, but it seemed Andalites were not beyond kicking either. He flew back hard against the ground, but recovered quickly enough. Though as soon as he recovered, he was surrounded by fire. Fire! Where had that come from!? He HATED fire! Then there was that whip again, trying to snare him. He was panicking now. His cape billowed around him. Protecting him from the searing flames. His whip met the other person's, and held it off.

His appearance took on a more demonic form. He leaped into the air onto a tree, aided by what energy he had. Who was it that burned him!? It was Artemis. The other creature he was interested in taking. She would be easier than an Andalite. Small enough to carry off. He leaped through the air, almost as if he was flying, to attack her. She would pay for this!


<Oh. All of the most obvious ones, eh? I see. Well, what brings you here to grace us with your precence, oh mighty one?>

[RAFrukh]

The 'vampire' was trying to block out my psionic powers!

I tried to concentrate even more. It worked somewhat.

Then, he jumped into a tree. He seemed to be avoiding something. Then, he looked greedily at something in the crowd. He lept...

I met him with full force, jumping into his abdomen. My horn had to have inflicted some bruise, yes? I checked...

<Oh. All of the most obvious ones, eh? I see. Well, what brings you here to grace us with your precence, oh mighty one?>, taunted the Andalite.

AAAAGH! I'd never been in this kind of situation!

<I have no need to talk to you...male!!!> I said simply, trying to avoid further conversation...

Then I npticed someone staring at me, <AND WHAT DO YOU WANT!?> I shouted impotently...no, not impotently, defiantly. Yes, defiantly...

[Midnight_Huntress]

Silver let the illusion fade as he hd jumped out and now came at her. She pulled her battle staff up swinging around to block his attack. "Try me!" She shouted unafraid.

[Stephquiem]

Fiona approaches the tiny creature, glancing briefly at Claxter. She bends down to peer at it. "What exactly are you supposed to be?"

[Chad32]

The psionic attack was back. He couldn't get to Artemis. He had to get away. Immortal as he was, he could still die. He instead started making for the thick part of the woods in an attempt to escape and recover.

Claxter turned away from the Helmacron, who was apparently female. Not male. The poor little woman seemed unused to people talking to her as her equal.

[Midnight_Huntress]

"Oh no you don't." She mumbled. She hoped the others let him go because she was going after him. She jumped into the trees and followed after him.

[BaronConall]

I watch the Vampire block my whip-arm and leap into a tree. A jumper, huh. This is becoming almost a fair fight. Interesting.

I focus again on my biomass, retracting my whip-arm and replacing each hand with four long 15-inch long claws. They had been tested against car that had been hurled at me back home. The cars had been found wanting.

I bunch up my legs, preparing the collective muscle of innumerable people and leaping from tree to tree after the Vampire, landing in front of him.

"I think you and I need to have a talk." I say to him, intentionally digging my claws deep into a tree in an attempt to send a message. "If you keep this up, I feel I must warn you that I think you and I have similar ways of extracting information, should you choose to resist."

[RAFrukh]

The strange creature seemed to become afraid, and he ran into the woods. I was not stupid. I knew he simply wanted to recover from the wounds evreyone had inflicted on him. I waited, watching to see what everyone else would do.

<What am I supposed to be? What am I supposed to BE!? I am a Helmacron!!! The mightiest race in the Galaxy>, I said, yelling at myself as much as this new simpleton. and to the Andalite, <I said don't walk away from me you big ball of fuzz!>
