A Prank Gone Wrong

Wily Sphere - Troop Barracks (White level)(#4768RLnt)

The troop barracks looks very similar to a brig from the outside, a long hallway with many doors on each side. It stretches as a labyrinth of twisting corridors that seem to branch out forever. The enormious size of the barracks made to have spacious amount of room within each of the quarters for the abundant number Robot Masters. If not for the signs and arrows leading towards the exits, one could easily get themselves hopelessly lost.

Obvious exits:
West leads to Wily Sphere - Corridor (White level).

Gemini Man paces into the hall. He looks at Metal Man's locked door, and raises a brow. Then, he grumbles something to himself.

Ice Man comes out of his room and streches. "Its been a while" He says to no one in particular. He then sees Gemini and waves.

Gemini Man smiles at Ice Man wryly, though a bit dismissively. He looks back at Metal Man's room. oO(...Wonder if he's still in there now...)Oo

Ice Man walks over to Gemini, eager to strike up a conversation. "Booyaka Gemini, whatcha up to?"

oO(...Booyaka?)Oo That was interesting. "Oh, nothing." He looks over at Ice's room, back to Metal's, back to his own. And, then, suddenly, he gets an idea. The twist-the-mouth-at-the-corners kind of idea.

Ice Man knows that smile on Gem's face. He knows Gem's up to something. "Oh, I've just been redoing my room. Some of the others ransaked it a little while I was on the month long scouting mission in Antartica."

Gemini Man sighs. "Yes, it is a shame when the other Masters mess with your quarters...isn't it?" He laughs. "Wanna help me mess with Metal Man's quarters?"

Ice Man thinks. .oO(Dad would get a kick out of it. Bass would give me a kick because of it. Metal would be pissed. I did find a saw blade in my room though)Oo. "I'm in!"

Gemini Man says, "I can't get into his quarters. It might be fun if he couldn't, either."

Ice Man says "I see what you're saying. But just what did he do to you /this/ time?"

Gemini Man squints at Ice Man. "What, did you miss that part?"

Snake Man arrives from the Wily Sphere - Corridor (White level).
Snake Man has arrived.

Ice Man says "Oh, wait, the snake thing! I almost forgot." He sees Snake coming and tries to act inconspicuous.

Gemini Man isn't paying attention to the entrance end of the corridor, as he's talking to Ice Man. Currently, they're standing in front of Metal Man's door. "Yes. The snake thing." He seems disgruntled. "He didn't have to do that, but he did. What kind of a master would I BE if I didn't retaliate...?"

Ice Man says "Remind me to not get on your bad side. Whatch the hall while I seal his door." At that he starts working on Metal Man's door.

Snake Man steps noislessly into the corridor, a snippet of conversation echoes down the hall, catching his attention. He pokes his head around the corner, eyeing the other two. "What sssnake thing?"

Gemini Man drops OOC Note for Metal Man.

Gemini Man is caught completely unawares by this arrival. He trips backward, and almost knocks Ice Man over.

OOC Note for Metal Man
The door to your gear-based metal haven seems a bitstiff...looks like the locking mechanism is...frozen shut? Well, get an industrial-strength hair-dryer, and blame Ice Man...anyone would. Though, wonder what reason he would have to be mad at you?

Metal Man arrives from the Wily Sphere - Corridor (White level). Metal Man has arrived.
[OOC] Gemini Man says, "BWA HA HA!"

[OOC] Snake Man says, "On the other hand, you may not need a note..."

[OOC] Metal Man says, "this means war."

Gemini Man is currently on the floor, back-pedling away from Snake Man.

Snake Man eyes Gemini with a look of slight distaste. "Anything around here that hasss to do with sssnakesss isss my busssinesss. Now what sssnake thing?"

Metal Man enters the barracks heading for his quarters.

Gemini Man stutters, "Just a--just something that-- " He looks up, and points out toward Metal Man. "Well, HE'LL tell you."

Ice Man is spooked by Snakes sudden appaerance. Now that he's paying attention he hears Metal coming and decides that this isn't a good place to be. "Gemini, I think we better go!"

Metal Man walks towards his quarters. "just what are you doing lurking about my room. I want an awnser." then Metal Man see's his door is frozen shut and his optics narrow. "You know I'm going to hurt who ever did that."

Gemini Man scrambles to his feet. "Yes...leaving...leaving is an excellent idea. Because...you know..." He looks up at Snake Man, and whimpers, then rushes off toward his own quarters.

Ice Man is already gone. He is trying to lose Metal in the twisting corridors.

Snake Man strikes Gemini Man with his Grasp attack.

Snake Man's tail flashes out, catching Gemini by the wrist and preventing him from running off. However, he pays his team mate no attention for the moment, rather he turns to glare at Metal. "What sssnake thing? I want an anssswer..."

Metal Man spys Ice Man starting to run away or more correctly Ice Man's foot falls. "One moment Snake I'll tellya but first I got to go... get someone." Metal Man dashes off down the hallway after Ice man rounding a corner he spys the alpha master and leaps at him in flying tackle. "Oh no you don't ICe I want Awnsers now!!"

Gemini Man struggles against Snake Man's grasp. "Please, please...let me go! I didn't do anything to you!!"

Snake Man gives his tail a shake, but tightens his grip around Gemini's wrist. "Be quiet and ssstill for an inssstant. And ssstop whimpering! It'sss embarasssing."

Ice Man sees Gemini's predicament, and fidelity wins out over common sense. Then he gets a plan. "Well Snake, you see, about the snake thing. Metal was, ah, insulting you behind your back the other day, and well, seeing as how you weren't around to defend yourself, we uh, ah, thought we'd get him back for you. Right Gemini?"

Gemini Man still struggles, and pulls, despite Snake's warning. "

Ice Man flattens himself against the wall to avoid Metal. He is about to run like all hell when he sees that Gemini's not going anywhere, and fidelity wins out over common sense. Then he gets a plan. "Well Snake, you see, about the snake thing. Metal was, ah, insulting you behind your back the other day, and well, seeing as how you weren't around to defend yourself, we uh, ah, thought we'd get him back for you. Right Gemini?"

Snake Man yanks Gemini closer, until he's near enough so that he can whisper in Gemini's ear.

Snake Man whispers to Gemini Man: 'Jussst shut up unlesss I tell you otherwissse. I'm not going to bite you'.

Gemini Man whimpers. He...REALLY doesn't like that.

Snake Man shifts his glare to Ice Man for a second, and then back to Metal. "I want to hear it from him."

Metal Man gets back to his feet and comes behind Ice man. "What I loaded up a phython from one of the jungle sims behind Gemini Man as a prank." Metal Man shrugs and looks at the Ice and then looks evily at Ice Man and Gemini. oO(I'll make them lick it till it melts.)

Ice Man thinks .oO(Aww, crap)Oo. Well, uh, I, ah, you see, its like, well, this, err, no no no, its more like, well...

Gemini Man is trying to stand still. He's being good...really, really! ...Kinda pathetic, actually.

Snake Man leans close to Metal Man, dragging Gemini after him. "Let me clue you in on sssomething, Metal. He'sss mine. Mine to pick on. Me. No one elssse. I take great pleasure in making him nerviousss. That'sss my job. The lassst thing I want isss him to be confronted by sssnakesss ssso often that I no longer derive any pleasure from being around him. And sssinssce Ssspark Man'sss... accident... I'm mossst likely to be named Gamma sssquad leader. Thusss, I will be able to make your life fairly missserable if I get it. In fact, I could make your life fairly missserable even if I don't get it. Ssso until you join Gamma sssquad, don't ruin my fun. Isss that clear?"

Gemini Man struggles and spasms as Snake Man drags him along. He takes in all of Snake's rant, shaken up by his presence. Was he being DEFENDED...or...? Finally, he chokes up the nerve to stutter... "T-t-t Top Man."

Snake Man gives Gemini a 'don't bug me with details' look.

Gemini Man shouts, "Wily put Top in charge! Not you! So you can...just...quit your blustering."

Metal Man nods to Snake man knowing not to piss off the happy fun spy snake any further. "As you whish brother. I'll leave Gemini to you to torments. Now about this little incident..." Metal Man looks "I'll leave Gemini for you to handle if you whish... now for Ice Man." Metal Man lears at the ice master. " Well as I'll leave you to your Fun with Gemini. However I think I can deal with Ice."

[OOC] Snake Man ICly has no confidence in Top Man as a leader. He couldn't pour pee out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel ;)
[OOC] Gemini Man agrees, but, ICly, anyone but you. ;)

Snake Man just gives a short nod, and then turns around and strides down the hallway, dragging Gemini after him. It seems he doesn't care what happens to Ice. Not his business. When they get around the corner, he pulls Gemini close again.

Snake Man whispers to Gemini Man: 'You owe me for this one.'.

Metal Man smiles as he looks at Ice Man. "Now I want to you lick that ice till it melts Ice Understand me!"

Gemini Man closes his eyes, trying to block out the snake in his vision...he quietly responds...

Ice Man is pretty much out of options. Gemini isn't gonna be much help at the moment, so, Ice does the only thing he can. Attacks Metal's pride. "I challenge you Metal!" Even little eskimos can be pushed only so far!

Snake Man gives his tail a shake, releasing Gemini's wrist at last. He just stands there, looking at his brother with the look of slight distaste again to see what he'll do next.

Metal Man snaps back his head an laughs in Ice Man's face. "Fine after you are done licking the ice I'll give you beating in the training room now get to work before I get ... annoied"

Gemini Man looks at his loosed wrist, then up at Snake Man, and backs slowly away, heading toward his own room.

Snake Man just shakes his head, and then looks around the corner at the other two, ignoring Gemini.

Ice Man gets the feeling he isn't being taken seriously. With goo reason too. "No, right here, right NOW" he yells. It's easy to be brave when you know you're about to die.

Snake Man gives a loud snort. "The Massster isssn't going to be happy if you wreck the plassce. Neither isss anyone elssse who hasss their ssstuff here."

Metal Man grabs Ice Man by the scruff of the neck and lifts him up off the ground. "Now you listen to me you you little worm. I'm being merciful to day I suggest you start thawing that ice now before I take you out into the desert out side tie you down and leave you for the VULTRURE TO PLAY WITH!"

Punk arrives from the Wily Sphere - Corridor (White level).
Punk has arrived.

Metal Man grabs Ice Man by the scruff of the neck and lifts him up off the ground. "Now you listen to me you you little worm. I'm being merciful to day I suggest you start thawing that ice now before I take you out into the desert out side tie you down and leave you for the VULTRURE TO PLAY WITH! Yes I'll haul ou though the Telporter to the Skull Citadel to do it too!"

Snake Man is standing at the end of the hallway, eyeing the two others with detatched intrest.

Punk walsk in quietly, coming in behind Snake Man, he chuckles briefly as he sees and hears the far off scuffle between The Alpha and Beta masters. He reaches out and taps Snake on the shoulder, "The **** do they think they're doing?"

Gemini Man is cowering away down the hall, moving toward his room. When he sees Snake Man stop paying attention to him, he picks up speed.

Ice Man says, if you'd bothered to look at the door, you'd find it is quite accessable. I'd barely started when you came back! I'll see you in the training room, bub!"

Snake Man is unsurprisingly not surprised by Punk's entrance. He makes enough noise just by walking to wake the dead. He doesn't even bother to look around to see who it is. "Apparently Metal Man played a joke on Gemini, who got Issce to help him with a payback prank, during which they were caught in the act. Issce hasss jussst challenged him to a duel here and now."

Punk nods, "****ing ingrates. I'm gonna have to put a ****ing stop to this I suppose." he comments angrily, He reaches out to Clotheslin Gemini as he tries to rush by, "WHERE THE **** DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?" he roars loud enough for Ice and Metal to hear him

Gemini Man is slammed by Punk, and stumbles back...ending up far cloer to Snake Man than he'd like. Still certainly nervous, he stutters... "B-back to my quarters... Snake Man says I'm in the clear... "

Ice Man looks at Punk, then at Metal, then back to Punk. Sanity seems to take him once more. "Uh, shall we put this off until tomorrow Metal?"

Snake Man winces a little as Gemini slams into Punk's arm. He shakes his head. "I've already taken ssstepsss to deal with him, thanksss. It'sss jussst the othersss I don't have any authority over."

Punk turns a look of pure rage to Gemini and ignores snake, "SO!?!?!?!?!?" he demands bellowing at the top of his vocals. He grabs the Master by the neck and holds him out as he marches down the corridor towards the other two, "I'M THE AUTHORITY HERE! EVERY BODY STOP ****ING MOVING."

Metal Man all Metal Man wanted to do was get to his quarters and go for a recharge is he going to get that no. He sees Punk going psyco as normal and drops Ice Man to the ground witha thud and ingores Ice's snivling for now. Metal Man looks over at punk. Metal Looks at Ice Man and whispers. "Too late to run now Ice boy. If I'm going down you are comming with me." Metal Man does not move

Snake Man leans against the wall and crosses his arms over his chest. He's not the one in trouble here, after all...

Ice Man decides to stand still. At least Metal's gonna catch a whooping too. Aside to Metal-"I wasn't running anywhere."

Gemini Man gaaaaks and struggles but, for the second time, there isn't much he can do. Boy, this was a bad idea...

Punk heaves Gemini (uncoded) at the other two masters presumably knocking all three into a heap, "NOW!" he yells, "Each of you are going to tell em what happened. ONE AT A TIME. Don't even /THINK/ about openin g your mouth out of turn. And I am gonna figure out what the **** you morons just did here."

Snake Man rolls his eyes and muffles a cough with his fist. Snake Man sends a radio transmission. Gemini Man receives a radio transmission.

Gemini Man is tossed onto the ground, and falls in a heap near the others. He nods a little at the radio message, then looks nervously from side to side. ...Him first, or?

Punk sighs, "**** you clowns. Look, open Metal Man's goddamn door. And I need a recharge. ALL OF YOU, report to me tomorrow, or you AREN'T Gonna like it."

Gemini Man gets up, and walks back toward his quarters. Dreading tomorrow.
