008; never piss off a sleeping dragon (unless you need a distraction)

Feb 26, 2010 20:28

[The first thing audible is the cracking of branches underfoot and a rumble like rocks breaking and a growl on the edges of hearing and the screen is dark, as if covered--

--then static--

--and then all that's audible are short, sharp breaths, growing longer and more relaxed as footsteps rattle on cobblestones.]

What did you do?!

[voice] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 03:38:48 UTC

I didn't mean to antagonize i--

"KEFKA!"

[Sound like Kefka almost being set on fire.]

I don't know what I did to make the dragon want to kill me!!! Blizzard my cloak--!

[switches to voice; there's no time for a written response.]

When do you never intend to antagonize anything?!

Quit bickering and either get out of the way or put your sword to use!

What the hell did you do?

[voice] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 03:49:57 UTC

I don't know!

[Sound like barrel smashing.]

You're the one who sicced it on me before during the Black Mage Exam! I almost died! This is--you must have done something to make it try to finish the job!

[voice] vryvryfrigtning February 27 2010, 03:58:08 UTC

I haven't been out there since I took you there!

Re: [voice] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 04:08:14 UTC

Well, I didn't do anything! Why would--oh no oh no--

"HUMANS--!"

[There's a thwack of large dragon upon wood.]

[/GAPE (not that Kefka can see it)]

H-Hang on! I'll be right there!

[audio] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 04:01:43 UTC

Good!

[There's a sound like wood crumpling in the background.]

Bring lots of supplies! It's huge!

Right!

[In her rush, she leaves her Mognet device on, so there's the sound of her hurriedly pulling items from wherever Kefka keeps them in the shop, the rustle of cloth and the clank of bottles as she shoves all the items she can into a bag, and then the pound of footsteps as she runs out the door.]

[sigh; you can hear the facepalm]

Ye gods, what have you done to offend this creature? Poked it in the eye, perhaps?

[audio] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 04:11:25 UTC

I didn't do anything!

"SOUTHERN CROSS!"

[And Kefka squeaks as his arm is frozen solid.]

[audio] fallen_stage February 27 2010, 04:22:17 UTC

Really? Nothing comes to mind? Perhaps I should ask the creature directly.

[audio; locked] sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 04:34:00 UTC

[There's silence for a time while Kefka finds a safe area. Then:]

Long story short: I had dragons in my world. This wants revenge for the dragons who were killed while the gods ruled the world freely, most of which died at the hands of greedy humans. I was working with two of the dragons, but the humans they faced were stronger and they died.

[He's leaving out the part about him being a god, them working to protect his tower and how he told Kaiser that he sent said dragons on a suicide mission to get it angry enough to attack town.]

[The scenery behind Saix in the video is of passing buildings and sky. He's obviously running.] You'd better hope whatever that is has you for a meal, Kefka, because it will be preferable to what I'll do to you myself if you make it out alive!

[The feed ends, the phone turned off and stuffed back into his pocket.]

This was a disaster. A complete disaster and of course Kefka was behind it. Saix ducked out of the way as a chunk of what was either pavement or building went flying past his head, the massive bulk of the dragon looming up several stories above everything else. He didn't immediately see the mage or Gabranth, but that didn't mean they weren't there.

Well. Orders were orders and at least this time Xigbar couldn't blame the destruction on him. Saix called the claymore to his hand and rushed in.

Kaiser hasn't noticed Saix yet, being too busy setting buildings on fire while it attempts to kill those trying to kill Kaiser back.

brutal_intent February 27 2010, 04:32:11 UTC

The thing is covered in spikes and scales and all kinds of protrusions- there might as well have been a paved walkway for Saix up its back. He slips in behind the dragon and vaults into the air, grabbing for one of the spines and, provided he doesn't get thrown off or smacked by a flailing appendage, will be quickly flipping and hauling himself up the thing's hide.

His goal? One of the wing joints.

sandinmyboots February 27 2010, 04:36:09 UTC

Kaiser feels the feet on its back and snarls, twisting to try and see Saix, then aims:

"Firaga!"
