Setthirosa looked at the oncoming bolt, and hed up the Euphrates. With a blast from the barrels, the bolt was disintegrated, and the bullet blew an enormous hole in one of the walls. He grinned.
"That can be dealt with! Care for some more gamma rays?"
Setthirosa held out his hand, and a burst of green light shot out from it. The rays were getting to him already, and he didn't want to stay around this place much longer. But if he could take down his foe . . .
Suddenly, he remembered the man whose wings he had shot off. Turning to him, he raised the Euphrates one last time.
"Farewell."
He pulled the trigger, and the bullet flew from the chamber.

"This won't go well... gotta watch it... one wrong move and I am outta here..." Firehawk leapt to the side. Bad move. The light grazed by, hitting his arm, and he knew this was going to be a heck of a painful experience. He dropped to one knee, inspected his arm, and knew afterwards it would take supplies from his downed ship to get this wound fully recovered... if ever... Then he looked up, and saw a shot go towards the winged one, and suddenly he felt intense anger towards the one who had fired. He began to sweat, large droplets falling onto the ground, leaving a small puddle after just a few seconds. "This can't happen... not now..." He muttered to himself, and began to make an attempt at suppressing the intense power attempting to escape. He knew if he allowed it to break free, it could destroy the surrounding area in one brief instant... and he couldn't let that happen. He backed away, ducking behind a building while his newly found opponent wasn't looking, so he thought. Then he sat, and began to focus on suppressing the power of the hawk within him that gave him his name, so long ago...

There are no words to describe the intensity of the agony as the bullet ripped through Longshanks' belly, rupturing his body and causing blood and bits of flesh to fountain into the air in a crimson spray of gore. The Orion lurched on the ground, writhing in anguish as his eyes snapped open. He tried to cry out in pain, but managed only a hoarse exhalation followed by a fierce intake of breath. Longshanks' breaths were now deep and harsh, and his skin was pale and slick with sweat. His ebony wings, tattered, muddied, and blood-soaked, were bent underneath his back at unnatural angles. With trembling arms, Longshanks hugged his belly, trying to staunch the bloodflow and hold his guts in. If he did not recieve medical treatment swiftly, the Orion knew that he would die.

Mellira Elliessian Sa Callara wondered in. Looking about the scene, she saw a rescuer of hers and, as quickly as she could manage, she ran to his side.
"Longshanks?" she called. "Longshanks! Listen!" He didn't seam to respond, so she swore.
She removed elven ceremonial clothes and pressed them against his gapping wound, then, press herbs there too. It wasn't a good place, though, not good at all. Perhaps... she had an unpaid blood price. Maybe that would help him.
Reaching for his sword, she cut stragically across her palm in a manner that would not damage the hand, but give her blood. Gently, she pressed the palm to the wound, and let her blood mix with his. She murmured healing words that would bind the magic, and pulled her hand away. Already, the blood was blooming just like it should for the proper healing spell, so she tore a peice of her tunic and bound her palm. Then, she returned to nursing the fallen Orien.
She lay her bow just by her side, incase someone decieded to attack her for helping Longshanks.

The magenta little imp jumped to his feet. He pulled a large metal spike out of his left arm. His blood poured to the ground. The wound closed, and he collapsed. Awakening again, he jumped spryly to his feet, and dashed over to the newcomer. His little feet scurried quickly, and he reached her within seconds.
"HEY YOU!!!!!! HEALING IS BAD!!!!!! PAIN IS GOOD!!!!! OW. HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! OW. KA-BLAM!!!!!! YOU GO BOOM!!!!!!! REALLY REALLY BOOM!!!!!! BURN GOODLY!!!!!"
He grinned, and set one of his most poweful explosives between the two. It began to beep. Flashing madly, it started swelling. DrivS stared at in awe. His grinned broadened, if possible, and he began twitching in anticipation. When the bomb hit the second mark, DrivS realised his relative location to the massive imminent explosion.
"HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Uh-o. . . HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! FIRE!!!!!!! LESS THEN A SECOND TO GO!!!!!!!!!!! KA-BLAM!!!!!"

Firehawk watched as the imp placed a bomb next to the winged one and someone who he had not seen as of yet. He pulled out his crossbow and aimed at the imp, loading a bolt into it quick as a flash. He didn't aim for any vital areas, he would merely fire at a limb, hoping to show the imp that he would not tolerate those who got him angry. Trying to attack those who could not defend themselves or were injured was completely unacceptable in his eyes, and he let the crossbow bolt fly at the imp's leg, hoping to keep it from escaping its own explosive. He then inspected his arm wound again, and found it had healed, probably from his episode with the hawk state of his... "That's a new one..." he said to himself...

--Thwwaaannggg!--
The bolt struck the imp squarely in the shin, shattered his bone, and the momentum carried him straight forward and virtually nailed him, upside-down to the nearest wall.
"NOOOOO!!!! CARRY ME AWAY FROM MY FIRE!!!!! HELP!!!! GET!!! ME!!!!! DOWN!!!!! I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!! OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!!!!!!! LEG HURTS!!!! AND THERE WASN'T EVEN ANY FIRE!!!!!"
DrivS dangled helplessly from the wall, awaiting the explosion of the bomb placed on the angel. It would be big enough to smite the one who hit him.

"Erg . . ."
Setthirosa ran over to the wall and pulled out the bolt. He then threw DrivS as far as he could, and jumped into the air. His anti-gravity field kicked in, and he sailed nearly 300 feet in the air. He looked down, and saw the bomb go off, sending flame and shrapnel everywhere. He called down to his friend at the top of his voice.
"Hah hah! I think we did it, DrivSy old boy!"

(sorry it took so long)
Vahn raced forward in sudden empathy and compassion. His race's speed would serve him well. He ignored the bombs that had exploded around him. The wound in his side. The shrapnel sticking out of his entire body, and the pain of his ally. This pain was acceptable. No one should die here today.
I have to run. I can't let anyone die here today!
Vahn jumped slightly over the two crouched figures. He did a flip as he passed and grabbed the bomb lying between them. Landing on the other side he thrust the bomb into his coat, just in time for the explosion. He felt the fragment slice deep within his stomach as the explosion occurred. His eyes grew wide as he felt them pass throughout his entire body.
"Gaaaaaaah!" His scream was broken and of true pain, he had never felt this pain before in seven years.
"Go! Get him out of here! I'll cover your flight, Now go!!"
No, I won't stand by and watch people die here today. If these monsters need a death, I will gladly be the one if everyone else is spared. Although I hope I can get out of here before that happens. Oh frell this hurts...

Firehawk watched in disbelief at the cloaked person, as he grabbed the bomb and shoved it in his cloak, taking the full explosion. "He's mad... but I noticed before, the fire never affected him... but the shrapnel!" He came out of his cover and drew his sword, then looked at the imp and flying maniac. "I really gotta figure things out... Man, these people... I know not a thing of them... But I do know I don't like those 2, they seem to be bent on merely killing..." He continued facing the adversaries, and walked forward a few paces. "Maybe I shouldn't do this... But it sure feels right."

Vahn stood there with his head in the air watching his opponents. His thought was then change to a figure stepping towards him. He quickly stood upright, determined not to show fear to this newcomer. His gun arm was steady as he pointed it at the warrior. He pulled back the trigger as a threat to him.
"Are you friend or foe!? Speak quickly or I'll shoot!"
I hope he doesn't mean any harm, I might be able to hit him if he isn't, but I'm definately in no shape to fight any more than that.

"Quite sure I am a friend, if you are against those 2..." he said this to the one who had taken the bomb. " No time for a proper introduction, however, I have a little thing I wish to do first. With them." Firehawk pointed at the imp and his companion. "I just don't like the way they act towards those who cannot defend themselves, or otherwise are innocent." He sheathed his sword, wondering why he took it out in the first place, and pulled out his crossbow again. Knowing it would not work if he used merely one bolt this time, he loaded in multiple ones, a trick he learned while he trained with it, so long ago. Something in the air is causing me to feel a little off... could it be from that one, the one carrying the imp? He thought about it, and making sure the 5 bolts were securely in place, ready to fire, he took aim at the one he thought an enemy now... If he hit the imp as well, an added bonus to the attack, but he did not aim to kill. He aimed as a warning to them that he was not to be taken lightly. He focused on a small amount of flame within him, which was common when he had just suppressed the form, and transferred the energy to the bolts, making them glow with a red light. He took aim and fired at the pair of opponents whom he knew not even a name.

Vahn sighed in relief at this comment from the strange warrior. He pain stakedly put his gun back into it's holster which had somehow miracurously not been affected by the blast. He then collapsed to the ground an instant later, his body growing cold despite the hot climate. He had lost alot of blood from various wounds throughout his body. He had already lost alot from the hole in his side. The chunks of metal sticking out of his body didn't seem to help either. Not only that but now he was bleeding profusely out of his abdomen. He lay there conserving all of his energy. He only had about twelve hours left before he would die.
Heh. I thought this would just be like any other planet. Apparently I was wrong. This is no place to be cocky. Here there are true warriors, I can finally find people worthy to be struck by the red bullets. Wow, I hope I live long enough to see more, this place could be fun.
Vahn stared entrancingly at the late afternoon sky and was fascinated by its intricate designs and shapes. He did not want to die if he didn't have to. As soon as he gained some strength back he would seek healing.

Setthirosa shook his head as the bolts flew at him. He called down to the one firing as he pulled out the Euphrates.
"I appreciate the target practice, but isn't it a waste of ammunition?"
He pulled the trigger, and blasts piled out of the shotgun, each destroying a bolt. After all of them were gone, he fired a last one at the ground. It exploded as usual, leaving an enormous crater. Setthirosa dropped to the ground and dropped DrivS next to him.
"If you want peace, then I don't think you'll enjoy this!"
He held up his hands, and an emormous ball of nuclear energy began to form.
"Three! Two! One!"
There was a sudden fizzling noise, and the ball disappeared.
"Huh?!?!?"
There was an explosion, and Setthirosa landed on his back. His eyes were tightly closed behind his goggles, and he tried to pull himself together.
I hate it when they do that!!!

Mellira noticed the bomb, and sighed. She had encountered Drivs once before, when she herself had been injured and it was Longshanks healing her. She studied the prone form. There was no way she could carry him. She picked up the bomb, it tender against her split palm, and threw it away from herself. Then, she returned to Longshanks, checking his condition, and for others needing healing.
