Wily Sphere - Training Room (Orange level)
This room, when not in use, is nothing but a big black box with a gridwork of shimmering yellow-green lines. But when the voice-activated computer is in use, it can become absolutely anything, from a thousand feet underwater to an Arabian desert, tropical rainforest, or Arctic tundra. Custom simulations can also be created by users, and often obstacle courses or gaunlets are used. The holographic medical drone can repair simulated damage instantly, and so the room is also popular for sparring and combat practice. But in this particular room, illusion meets reality, and anything you can think you can do.

West
This is a chilly landscape that Ice Man likes to train and have snowball fights on. Snow and ice abound and there is a frozen lake or two. The landscape is dominated by a pair of castles made out of large blocks of packed snow. They are each have a couple of windows in the sides and battlements with an open top. They are large enough to hold a few Masters inside and each has a small trench running in front of it. The no mans land in between the forts is dotted with snowmen in the shape of various Robot Masters to provide some cover and limit visibility. Oh yes, VERY good for snowball fights!
Ice Man knows a snowball fight when he sees one. He picks up one of his own snowballs, and gets ready for a fight!
Tengu Man heh's, and uses his Triblade a shovel scooping up a large amount of snow.
Bright Man is certainly at a tactical disadvantage right now. Going up against Ice Man in his own element, with weapons that Ice Man is famed for, while on far lower ground than his opponent, and with the target manning a fortress and him out in the open. But such things have never stopped him before as he finishes creating his single snowball, "Anyone care for the wonderful chance to test out their defensive systems?" he offers politely.
Gemini Man wanders in, wondering why the base scanners showed this place so unusually packed... packed with SNOW, apparently. He shivers a little.
Ice Man watches as Gemini enters the room. .oO(Wow, thins place is getting crowded!)Oo. "Hiya Gemini! What's happening?
Tengu Man Flys upwards with his load of snow, and positions himself over where Bright is, creating a rather ominous shadow over him.
Gemini Man idly starts to roll a snowball... "Not too much. Picked sides yet?"
A shadow over the lightbulb? Easy way to solve that problem. With a flicker the massive bulb shimmers on, casting a bright yellow glow about the entire room, "Sides? Lets just go with what works! Think fast, Tengu!" with stunning speed he whips his arm around and launches the ball up towards the flying Tengu Man.
Tengu Man 's arm gets pelted with the high speed snowball cuaseing it to jerk to the side. Unfortunatly, that also sends the shovel load of snow he had plummeting down towards Bright.
Ice Man's no stranger to snowball fights. He launches a snowball at the best target, the already under fire Bright Man!
Bright Man's eyes widen and he only has enough time to say, "Oh perfect! I can finally get to make sure my insulating armour will protect against wat-" FWOOM. The massive pile completely covers the Robot Master, and all that's left is a glowing part of snow where his lightbulb is just barely buried.
Gemini Man takes advantage of Ice Man having his back turned. He's already got the snowball packed and ready, so he wings it at the back of Ice Man's head.
Ice Man get's hit in the head by Gemini's snowball, knocking his hood a little askew. "That'll teach me to not keep my head down when I'm in cover. He launches a snowball at Tengu while staying behind the fort's batlements!
Tengu Man gets pelted with Ice's snowball. "Gaaaaah! Colditscoldfreakincold!" he dorops down to get more snow. Sure youve got a great place to attack form in the sky, but no ammo.
Buried deep beneath the snow, Bright Man's right hand retracts into his arm, and is quickly replaced by a massive plasma cannon, "Might as well take the easy way out," he reasons. Switching to his lowest setting, he starts melting the ice around him to try and break free of the snow. Lets just hope he doesn't cause a flash flood.
Gemini Man now notices two things: first of all, he has no cover, and second of all...he's only aiming at one target. Well, he hasn't picked a side, or a fort, so...he'll pick both. Shimmering slightly, he splits in two...then one of him dives behind each fort.
Tengu Man think to himself, "wait, if Bright's on the other team, and Ice is on the other team and Gemini's ALSO on the other...well, one of him anyways. ah screw it." he lands and starts scooping and thrwong snowballs at Bright.
Bright Man finally gets himself free of the snow pile that Tengu Man made, only to be pelted once again. "Ok, now this is a great chance to test out these fortresses!" He launches himself towards one of the closer fortresses, being assaulted all the way. Alas, Bright Man didn't notice that the fortress he's just about to hop into is the one Gemini's double took cover in.
Ice Man is about to teach Gemini the golden rule of snowball fights. There /are no/ sides! "First you zing me in the head, then invade my turf. That's it, kid gloves come OFF" Ice Man launches an arseload of snow at Gemini. Well, the one in his fort anyway.
Metal Man has arrived.
Gemini Man is pelted with a wave of snow, and FWUMPS down into the snowbank. Meanwhile, Gemini Man on the other side of the room wads up a snowball and takes aim at Bright Man, who's just made himself the classic target.
Tengu Man scoops up another shovel full of snow and takes to the air once more. "Okay, lets see...Wheres Bright?"
Bright Man lunges for the fortress, only to be wacked at by a snowball that splatters against his lightbulb. Thankfully - and Ice Man wouldn't want to hear this ICly - it's only a snowball, and does nothing to slow his approach. Landing on both feet in behind the fortress walls, Bright Man flashes a smile towards Gemini's double, "Think you can defeat me 'alone' Gemini Man? One way to find out, I suppose," he chuckles, getting a ball ready. He hears Tengu Man, but doesn't reply, hoping he didn't see him come into this fortress.
Tengu Man flys over towards Ice's castle, and airdrops his load down at him and Gemini 1 (or is it Gemini 2?)
Gemini Man, facing Bright Man, reaches down for a snowball of his own. He starts to form it, keeping his eyes on the other Master, squinting meanacingly. "One way to find out, indeed." He starts to sidestep, pacing around Bright Man as if he was a gunslinger looking for a shot. Meanwhile, in a bank of snow, Gemini Man stands up, and dusts himself off from the pounding he's just taken from Ice Man. Just then, he's hit with another payload from above, courtesy Tengu Man, and drops again.
Bright Man finally finishes his snowball and paces back and forth to match Gemini Man. However the usual standoff grimace that most gunfighters wear in a shootout situation like this is replaced with that same inferiating joyful grin. Glancing past the fortress walls he notices Tengu dump a load on the other Gemini Man, "Sounds like one is down... time to make it two!" He makes his move, 'drawing' his snowball and whipping it at the head of Gemini Man as fast as he can.
Ice Man doesn't see Tengu coming and the ensueing deluge knocks him off the forts ramparts! "heheAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" He lands in the ground and rolls over to a window under the rampart and looks about for what hit him!
Tengu Man chuckles softly to himself as he flys back towards the fort with Bright Gemini fighting it out.
Gemini Man ducks under Bright Man's snowball, and lobs his own in his direction. However, rather than simply letting it fly, he also dives forward, trying to tackle Bright Man into the snowbank behind him.
Gemini Man digs himself out from under Tengu Man's deluge, and looks up just in time to see him fly off. He rolls up a ball with Tengu Man's name on it, and lets it fly.
Ice Man can see Tengu's back is turned. "Ah HA! You did that." He forms a HUGE snowball and hurls it at tengu's backside
Bright Man sidesteps the snowball with surprising agility, but gets nailed by the flying tackle, "Ooof!" he calls out, being thrown into the wall of the ice fortress. "Ah an excellent idea! Lets make this a little bit more /interesting/, shall we, hmm?" With Gemini Man still in close quarters, he swipes a fist at him.
Tengu Man eeerks as the back of his head is pelted with Gemini's snowball, he turns around "Hey thats...." His eye's practically bug out of his mask when he see's Ice's massive snoball heading his way. "this wont end well...." And he gets a massive snowball right on the pointy nose, sending him plummeting from the sky into a snowbank. After a bit he jumps out of it running it circles arm's flailing yelling. "Gaaaaah!itscolditscoldsnowinmaskSNOWINMASKfreakinfreeezeing!!!!" the then slips on the ice and ever so gracefully lands on his back.
Ice Man chuckles to himself as Tengu is blasted. "Wait a second. I didn't throw that first one..."
Gemini Man winces as Bright Man's fist connects. Hey, it's the holographic training room, but he wasn't expecting combat in a snow fight. He shakes the punch off. "Hey, that actually HURT." Rather than hitting back, he just tries to flip Bright Man over, and bury his smiling face in the pile of snow.
Gemini Man, from the other bunker, grins at Ice Man, and throws another snowball at him. Then, he runs outta there.
Tengu Man eventually gets back up and brushes the snow off of him. Getting smacked out of the air like that kinda sucked, but he grins behind his mask despite it. He had it comeing anyways.
Bright Man whoops and acks as he's picked up and tossed over Gemini Man's shoulder. The joyful warrior manages to land on his feet, however, stumbling backwards and tripping over a small piece of ice on the fortress and falling on his butt. Bright Man chuckles at his misfortune and starts to get back up, "Shall we call it even, friend?"
Gemini Man walks up to Bright Man, holding out his hand as if to shake the other master's. "All right. No punches. ...Just snowballs." He leans over, and, not having the time to pack a proper snowball, uses his outstretched hand to push up some snow dust into Bright Man's face.
Metal Man looks about as he enters the bay and crosses his arms and smirks. "Well well what do we have here brothers? Frolicking in the snow are we? You think you could actually hit something with a snow ball. I guess I'll have to show you slackers how to do it right?" Wait is Metal Man smiling right now? Okay fear! The Red and Yellow master bends down and forms a pair of snowballs that he launches in the direction of the others.
Bright Man practically giggles at a rather mean idea that he gets as the snow is shoved into his face, "No punches... just snow as the weapon... sounds like a fair set of rules to me!" Brushing the snow off of him, his plasma cannon returns to his right arm and he targets... the massive snowy wall behind Gemini Man? Firing off a blast, the wall of snow cracks, splinters, and starts to fall forward... straight towards Gemini man as Bright Man leaps out of the fortress towards safety.
Ice Man laughs at Metal's puny snowballs. "Let me show you how its done!" At that, he forms a snowball the size of his head and hurls in at Metal, turning his back to Gemini 1. Or is it 2?
Gemini Man, facing down Bright Man...lloooooks up behind him... too late. The wall starts to tip.... He barely has time to form an "Uh-oh," before it comes crashing down over him.
Bright Man chuckles and lands in the snow hard after jumping clear of the fortress, "Hey Ice Man! You don't make your little houses very sturdy! One little plasma blast and they fall to pieces!" He turns his back towards the fortress, assuming - like an idiot - that Gemini Man 2? 1? is down for the count.
Tengu Man looks over at the destruction of the castle he's by. "So property damage is okay? heh, cool." he extends his Tri-blade and fly upwards a bit so he's near the top, and slices a turret at an angel. after a moment it starts to slide off and plummets towards Bright.
Gemini Man isn't getting up for now...but the one who has just left Ice Man's fortress is still doing fine. He sees Metal Man make himself a new target, and throws a snowball in his direction.
The ice turret cracks and snaps off and falls straight towards Bright Man. Leaping with all of his might, the lightbulb wonder is only partially successful at evading it. The turret crushes his legs, keeping him trapped on the ground. Bright Man cringes, yet somehow still keeps smiling, "Oh good... my pain receptors are still in fully functional condition."
Tengu Man says, "....okay, Thats just creepy."
Ice Man finally notices Gemini standing a few feet away. .oO(Crud, I'm surrounded!)Oo. He runs out of the fort and into the snowman fields. Finding the SnowGutsMan he takes what cover he can and looks around for a target!
Metal Man goes into snowball time? to dodge anyhow he keeps hims self from getting hit. "You missed me fool! There is no escape!" Metal Man hurrls a barrage of snow balls at Tengu Man.
Tengu Man shrieks like Aqua man and gets pelted by the barrage....and lands in that snowdrift again. Cue the running and shrieking about cold!
Gemini Man crawls out of the wreckage of the snowfort, and sees that Bright Man is pinned. Bruised himself from the chunks of falling ice, he approaches the downed Bright Man, and looms over him, grinning. Meanwhile, Gemini Man on the other side of the room has pegged Metal Man as his new target. He packs another tight snowball and lobs it at Metal Man's head.
Bright Man grunts, struggling to free himself from the turrets, "Don't worry, friends... I'm in extreme pain here but I'm sure I can free myself within an hour or so..." using his two hands he struggles to try and push the turret off of his loser self, but manages only to nudge it slightly, "Don't worry, friends... I'm starting to lose fuel at a rapid rate but I'm sure I can free my.. ehughhgh..." his head lulls back and he passes out from a lack of energy.
Ice Man's not happy about Metal mocking his aim. "Ok bro, dodge this!" At that he throws a blizzard at Metal. Literally.
Gemini Man, the bruised one, frowns at Bright Man. ...Well...that was kind of...sad. At least it's only holo-damage. Oh, well, in that case, new target. He throws another snowball at the already-screeching Tengu.
Metal Man snaps back his head and laughs. Then like Agent Smith in the Matirx he goes hun at Ice Man. "Oh slag..." And is deep chilled.
Tengu Man gets pelted by Gemini's snowball, and stops in his running to say. "Now this is getting a whee bit exsessive." as he whipes the large amount of snoww off his face a launches a shovel full of snow at Gemini.
Bright Man is barely moving, but what is moving is his right arm, which points towards the turret. With a loud sizzling sound, the turret is remove a la plasma cannon. Groaning, Bright Man smiles, "See...? T-told ya I'd just just fine..." he murmers.
Ice Man shout's "HA! Respect the aplha in the parka!" He's not really paying attention to who's behind him though...
Gemini Man is pounded with a shovel-ful of snow from Tengu Man. Well, he asked for it. He shakes himself off, then, ducks down behind what's left of the fortress...not much, by this point. The other Gemini Man sees an opening, and Whaps Ice Man with another snowball.
Metal Man then with a snarl shatters the ice the forms on his body in shower of ice shards Metal Man rushes Ice' location fireing a heavy barrage of snow balls. "Oh Ice its yer trun to chill out bro!"
Bright Man can't move anymore due to the lack of non crushed legs, but he isn't out of the fight. Scrambling to make a snow ball, he tosses it towards whichever Gemini Man is closest - which happens to be the one just nailed by Tengu Man.
Ice Man gets whaped in the head by Gemini Man, again. As he pulls his hood out of his eyes he sees the charging Metal Man and panics! He runs for the surviving fort and dives through the nearest window!
Gemini Man sees that Metal Man is out for blood, and, gets the heck out of the way, taking cover behind a nearby snowbot. The Gemini Man just hit by Tengu Man is hit AGAIN, in the back, by a snowball from the assumed-down Bright Man. He spins and glares at him.
Tengu Man see's that Metal Is going berzerker, thankfully on Ice and not him. He runs to hide from his elder and ends up in the same hideing spot at Gemini. "uh-oh..."
Bright Man meets the glare from Gemini Man with a kind cheerful smile and a wave of his right arm as his left starts to gather up more snowballs for launching. "What's wrong, Gemini? If you can't stand the cold, get out of the way of the ice."
Gemini Man, near Bright Man, knuckles down and gets ready to dodge. "I'm not the one missing FEET." He shakes his head. "You poor thing." Near Tengu Man, he just smiles wordlessly. Then, instead of scooping up a handful of snow, he grabs the head off the snow Skull Man, and lobs it at Tengu.
Metal Man is still charging Ice Man fortress of doom fireing snow balls a sicking rate!
Tengu Man Mmrrrphs! "Mrrrrphllgh!!" (translation: Not again!)
Ice Man (feeling safe in his fort) turns around to face Metal. And fights dirty. He turns the ground in front of the breserker into ice!
Bright Man glances down and hmmms, "Good point. Touche." he admit to G emini Man about the feet comment. He starts dragging himself over towards where the repair mechs are stationed so he can get back in the game.
Gemini Man takes a break, on both sides of the arena, to chuckle at the misfortune of his opponents, enjoying himself but leaving him open to attack.
Tengu Man pulls the snowman head off of him (his nose was a nice touch wticking out of it), and chucks the remains at the crawling bright man
Metal Man skids on the ice and goes air born arms flailing. "Ice!!!!!! MMMMMMAAAAAAAAANNNNNNN!!!!" As he pinwheels he is heading right for an impact with Ice Man's fort.
Bright Man blinks as the partial snowman is thrown towards him, "Attacking a downed enemy? How deliciously evil of you!" Regardless, the diversionary tactician just barely makes it to the repair drone in time, protecting him from any holographic damage. "And once this damage is taken care of, Tengu, it'll be /my/ turn."
Ice Man thinks the fort isn't such a good place to be anymore! He beats a hasty retreat out into the snowman field, trying to put as much distance (and as many of his brothers) as possible between himself and Metal. Who doesn't sound too happy at the moment!
Gemini Man ducks around behind the halfway demolished snow-Skull-Man, and pulls up next to himself. Both of them nod at each other, then start to move up on the destroyed fort containing the spastic Metal Man...
Tengu Man scoops up a massive amount of snow useing triblades on both hands as shovels, and fles up REEEEEEAAAALY high over the repair mech, waiting.
Metal Man slams into the fort at break neck speeds cauing it to explode in a shower of snow and metal man is nowhere to been seen... all is silent now.
Bright Man's holographic damage is removed in a blink, leaving him in perfect condition once again. He grins and looks up at Tengu, "Now now, you wouldn't be just waiting for me to step back into the boundary, would you? Not a great idea considering you're just asking to be shot in the back," he flashes his trademark smile.
Ice Man is hiding in the snowbot feild. He sees SnowQuint and pushes it over. Just because.
Gemini Man, times two, ready their ammunition, putting together several snowballs apiece and circling like vultures around the second destroyed fort, waiting for Metal Man to emerge.
A voice calls out that sounds like metal man's. "I can see you Gemini Man can you see me?" A snowball seems to come out of now where and flies towards Gemini 1.
Tengu Man shrugs and dumps half his load towards Bright and flies after Ice.
Ice Man's now aware that Metal off his back. .oO(I owe Gemini a little payback for those snowball's to the head)Oo. He starts hurling a deluge of snowballs in Gemini's direction as only Ice Man can. 'Cept for maybe Blizzard Man. Or Freeze Man.
Bright Man leaps back into the boundaries, noting that the Robot Masters seem to have split up into partners. No point in doing something like that. Scooping up a quick snowball, he fires it at Ice Man, who appears busy shooting at Gemini. The snow fromt Tengu splatter against his orange armour.
Gemini Man, one, ducks the snowball, though too late, and it hits him on the crystal-fan on his helmet. Frustrated, he unleashes his entire payload into the fort, one at a time, hoping to hit the target. Gemini Man, Two, not paying attention to what is going on behind him, is pelted by Ice Man's attack. He's hit with a pounding of snow, then trips over a piece of broken fort, and tumbles inside the wreckage.
Metal Man laughs from where ever he is hinding. "The game's a foot Gemini." Blam another snow ball comes out of nowhere and sails towards Gemini Man 2.
Ice Man dodges Bright's snowball. He yell "HA" and is buried in Tengu's attack.
Tengu Man says, "yes!" Then does the classic Master pose."
Gemini Man, already on his knees on this side from Ice Man's attack, is popped in the head with another snowball from Metal Man's hiding spot. He turns to the wreckage, and both versions of him dive in deeper. Looking for Metal Man in the pile of snow and ice, they are quickly completely submerged.
Bright Man chuckles and blinks, at a total loss at who he should be targetting next, "Should we call the game over, friends? I think we've done all the snow related damage that we can to each other."
Metal Man cackles even more as he comes out of hiding. "Ya I think... holy slag? Bright Man when did you get out of stasis???"
Bright Man chuckles in a good natured way, folding his arms, "Ahhh, Metal Man. Loud as ever, I see. I've been back and around for a while now. Been keeping busy with wonderfully fun things such as performing a complete self diagnostic over three thousand eight hundred and thirty one times."
Tengu Man lands brushing some snow out of a shoulder joint. Cold bad.
Ice Man wipes the snow off of himself. "Wow. I haven't had that much fun since we wrote "Bass eats it" on the moon!
Gemini Man "re-merges" in the wreckage, and pops his head out of the snowdrift. He looks and sees Metal Man behind him, then, laughs, and frees his elbows, resting them on a pile of broken ice. "Agreed. Good game, everyone..."
Metal Man mind boggles at a that statement. oO(Okay there is now someone else who scares me as much as Plant Man does.... slag.) "If Bass hears that he will make a hole in your head with the neo buster Ice Man... so when did dad get your system glitches worked out might I ask?"
Bright Man flashes his grin and twiddles his thumbs, "So tell me, friends, when are we going to get back in action? It's been far, far too long since I've been able to do anything of use around here," he's still smiling, so it couldn'th have been /that/ boring for him.
Gemini Man says to Bright Man, dismissively, "Good question. You might want to ask the chain of command. Action is grab-as-you-get around here lately."
Metal Man leans back on a tree. "Ah I see well you know Sil is dead from what I hear." Metal Man shrugs. "Anyhow Gemini behind you there is snake!!"
Bright Man accepts Gemini's question and nods gleefully, "Sounds /perfect/ to me."
Gemini Man snickers at Metal Man's attempt. "Come ON, Metal Man, I think I would have seen him come in." He pulls himself up out of the snowdrift, and dusts himself off.
Metal Man smirks as he sends a silent radio signal to the comptuer and holo snake is added to the program and its right behind Gemini Man now. oO(Oh ya.) There is hiss from behind the twins.
Gemini Man freezes up, and shivers, as if the holographically-induced cold is finally getting to him. ...hiss? Slooowly, he turns his eyes, then head, to look behind him...
There is large hungry looking Python behind Gemini Man and its closing fast.
Bright Man for the most part is just hanging around as his player falls asleep at the keyboard.
Ice Man thinks for a moment. "Sil, hrmmm, I recall the name and I can almost see a face, but....(he trails off, as if trying to remember something) Well, anyway, thanks for the update Metal."
Metal Man nods to Ice Man. oO(Better this way actually.)
Gemini Man succumbs to the "flight" instinct his phobia entails, crashing through a snowbank for the opposite side of the room. Luckily, he manages to get ahold of his senses long enough to SLAM on the holographic controls, shutting down the simulation and resetting the entire arena in hopes to make the fearful object vanish along with the surroundings.
Tengu Man shakes his head and wanders out.
Bright Man smiles, chuckles and says, "If there's nothing else, friends, I'm heading out. Bye bye."
Ice Man heads back to his quarters for the night.
Gemini Man sighs as EVERYTHING goes away. He turns around and regains his composure, and waves to his departing brothers.
Metal Man nods to Bright Man. oO(Never thought I'd see him on-line again.) "Opps must have been a system glitch eh Gemini?"
Gemini Man smiles at Metal Man. "Metal Man. I'll kill you. Just so you know."
Metal Man says, "Hey it was not me bro."
Gemini Man says, calmly, "Goodnight, Metal Man." He turns to the exit. "Goodnight."
