Metroid -- Game 1

Started by genral zink8 pages

K'lun charges up a shot from his rifle and lets it fly, aimed at a Pirate.

Chris, your first few shots miss the Pirate as it hops around and rolls, but one of them manages to hit the blaster mounted on it's arm. It gives a cry of fear and pain as the rest of your shots hit it in the chest, frying the thing. It falls, oozing blood from it's wounds.

K'lun, your shot is well aimed, and you vaporize the Pirate's left arm. It is now unarmed, and falls to the ground as General Vesmos finishes it off with his pistol.

It starts raining. The green and red blood on the ground are mixed into the mud by your feet. Rain drizzles down your visors, and drip off of K'lun's exo-skeleton. Your suits don't seem to mind the rain, and you find it refreshing.

I continue to fire at any buggers I can still see.

erm... same as kaliero 😄
(though I would like to stand behind a rock or tree or something)

Coward. J/K 😄

no, just not uptodate with this game (never played a metroid game)

Daren crouches down, fires, and moves, then gets to shooting again, as he progresses through the landscape.

(You should play one, Yerss...)

K'lun charges up his gun again and fires at the purple-armored Pirate. Then he fires rapidly at the other Pirates.

John, a Beetle paws the ground with one of it's 6 instectoid legs. It prepares to charge at you, intending to knock you backwards a few feet.

Yerss, that's you. The Beetle narrowly avoids your shots and charges at you with a burst of speed.

Any plans for how you'd like to dodge it?

Also, you can move behind one of the many large rocks on the hill, Yerss. If you still want to.

Soon the Beetles, or "buggers" as you guys have termed them, are finished, except for the one charging at John. Try as you might, it evades your shots. Still awaiting Yerss's plans for that Beetle...

Daren moves fast, and takes down another Pirate, which gives a defiant roar as it topples.

You never get around to firing rapidly at the other Pirates, K'lun. The purple-armored Pirate leaps high into the air and lands behind you. Two cannons are infused into it's armored claws, and it prepares to obliterate you...

"No!" Chris hollers, charging up his power beam and opening fire on the purple-armored Pirate.

Your quick thinking knocks the purple Pirate off balance.

What am I doing, currently?

kinda forgot my name here, sorry rex 🙂

think I'm going to quickly take a shot at his eye and then at the last moment jump as far as I can away from that thingie in to the direction of the others
(shoot, now I wish I played a metroid game once)

John's shot in the Beetle's eyes make it swerve off course and collide with a rock. Josh finishes the creature with a quick volley.

K'lun and Chris are taking care of the purple Pirate, but the other two Pirates are closing in to help finish them.

Care to help them, Dak and Yerss?

(Just a note, I have opened a thread called Metroid Imaging, which is where Zink will be posting pics of creatures and plants you encounter, if he has pictures of them.)

good idea, then I can see what you're talking about 😉

John shoots to one of the pirates closing in on the others, aiming for the legs, and of course hoping dak will shoot at the other one

The Pirate stumbles and falls face first in the mud. It is crippled, but it is still shooting at you from the ground. It has stopped focusing on Chris and K'lun.

that was the idea no? 😉
guess I'll aim at his ugly head now, when I have some decent cover

It splatters open with a fizzle as the shots hit.

The other, non-armored Pirate decides he would like to defend himself rather than finish off somebody. He starts shooting as well.
