Enter the Arena... As Your Avatar (v4)!

Smaug takes the blast full on, and is sent flying back from the blast, reeling back. Despite his scales absorbing most of the blast, the energy seeps into his missing scale, giving him excruciating pain.

The Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities sop till somehow survives, defying all logic, coming out of the blast smoking and stumbling, but impossibly still in one piece.

If you thought that toy would kill me, then you are an even bigger fool than I realised... I was almost tempted to continue this little scuffle, if only to watch your annoying filth of a body suffer, watch it slowly destroy you, and drive you MAD. But I think not. I think our little game ends here. So tell me, metal wagon, HOW DO YOU CHOOSE TO DIE?!

Smaug leaps at F, fiery jaw and teeth blazing, preparing to tear the tin can apart piece by piece, but also granting Thorin the perfect opening to man that Dwarvish Windlance, armed to the teeth with the dreaded Black Arrows.

This takes Ham-to-Ham Combat to a whole new level. I LOVE IT!

Weary yet determined, Thorin finally reaches the Dwarvish Windlance and loads the first of the Black Arrows into the weapon, then takes aim and fires it at Smaug.

I'm so adding this battle to the game's Awesome subpage.

F says nothing to Smaug, content to simply stare the dragon down without flinching as its jaws come down on him and tear his torso free from his tank-legs.

Smaug, in the middle of tearing F to scrap, stops short when the Black Arrow connects with his side.

Slowly turning away, the familiar sensation on his scales giving him no doubt as to who fired on him.

He turns to Thorin, his intact eye blazing with malice. He approaches slowly, fire burning in his chest, ready to fire.

Oakenshield. You dare to challenge me NOW?! Leaving your compatriot to die, like the coward you are. He was only ever a means to an end, a diversion, to die horribly as you stole the glory with your Black Arrows. Now, now you have nothing, WRETCH. You are forsaken. NO HELP WILL COME TO YOU NOW! THERE IS NOTHING FOR YOU BUT YOUR DEATH!!!

He opens his mouth and fires a powerful stream of flame at the Dwarf leader... in turn also exposing the missing scale for a split second...

Refusing to let Smaug's words get to him, Thorin defiantly lets out a dwarven battlecry, then aims the Windlance at Smaug's weak sport and fires the next Black Arrow at it before diving away from the dragon's fire, though he does get singed by the flames.

Smaug dives at Thorin's vantage point, destroying what was left of the Windlance...

BUUUUUURRRRN-

...and allows the Black Arrow to land splat-bang into his missing scale gap.

The Dwarven metal weapon digs deep into his skin, disappearing, shaft and all, rupturing his heart and internal systems fatally.

Screaming in disbelief and pain, the Dragon of Morgoth loses his composure and falls into a frenzy of fright, flailing about in his death throes and destroying scenery.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

He takes to the skies in a last-ditch attempt to live, but, high in the skies, the light in his eyes, in his mouth, in his chest, dims for good, and his draconian voice is silenced forever.

His corpse tumbles to the ground, landing on the Facility and completely destroying anything caught under him. At last, Smaug the Golden, the Dragon of Middle-Earth who terrorized the inhabitants of Erebor, Dale, and Esgaroth for years, the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamites, is finally dead.

Best pagetopper ever.

Boy, did I miss the greatness.

(enter Artorias, still with his mind clear)

(he's got his arm fixed too) ...(stares blankly at Smaug's body, then looks around in search of the one able to down such a mighty drake)

"Finally, it's over..." Thorin says before going to greet Artorias. "If you're looking for the one who slew that dragon, that would be me." He then extends his hand to the wizard. "Thorin, son of Thrain, at your service."

Someone's clapping in the distance.

   "A most excellent display of power and courage..."

...'tis a great deed to strike down such a mighty foe. I commend thee, Sir Thorin.(nods) I am Artorias, one of Lord Gwyn's Four Knights.(shakes hand)

(isn't that guy huge, Thorin? He's easily ten feet at least)

(glances as to where the third voice comes from)

A small robotic creature appears from out of the shadows. He seems to be unarmed. But it's clear something's off about it.

   "Slaying a dragon of such power... in my world, you'd be a true Toa."   

He bows.

   "Where are my manners? I am Makuta. I am looking for my sons, but I accept any and all invitations to battle."   

Even though, at first sight, it doesn't look like a creature like him could do anything in a battle other than flail around wildly.

EDIT: Anyone still here?

edited 11th Jan '15 6:00:33 AM by DevilPsyco

Thorin turns to Makuta. "I appreciate your praise, Makuta. However, I know not where your sons are, nor am I in any condition to battle you. After that battle with Smaug, I should be heading back to my camp to rest and recover from my wounds. After that, I'll be heading to Erebor. Farewell, Makuta, and may you find your missing sons. Artorias, it was an honor to meet you and I hope that our paths cross again in the near future." Having bid the two farewell, Thorin leaves for his camp.

Gonna go for now. Might be back as either Thorin or someone else.

Ok, see you later.

Makuta nods.

   "I understand. Farewell."   

He looks at Artorias.

   "I suppose you cannot help me in this matter either?"   

Hello? Anyone here?

-Kid Buu spawns above the fighters-

Kid Buu versus Makuta. I... actually can't predict who will win this time. This is a first.

Makuta looks up and sees Kid Buu.

   "What do we have here..."   

Kid Buu should be able to see the tiny creature. Clearly, it poses no threat. ...Right?

May fire guide you, Sir Thorin.(nods goodbye)

(back to Makuta) I'm afraid I'm not of much help in such matters...(glances at Kid Buu)

Sorry, was kinda occupied.

edited 11th Jan '15 6:43:00 AM by FergardStratoavis

-Kid Buu glance down at the tiny thing-

-yup, it living. so murder time-

-He charges a Ki-

Makuta looks back at Artorias.

   "I see. I do not blame you. It appears that everyone here either has bigger issues, or isn't interested in issues at all. I'll find my sons eventually, I am a patient being. I will just keep looking until I find them."   

Glances at Kid Buu again.

   "Normally, I wouls dismiss something with a look like that as nothing dangerous. However, he gives off a dangerous aura. I think it's more powerful than both of us, but I am not sure. It depends on its abilities. We'll have to wait to see if it attacks or not."   

Sees him charging.

   "Hostile all right. I wonder how this will end. I can have some fun here, seeing as death is seemingly cheap."   

edited 11th Jan '15 6:47:30 AM by DevilPsyco

...I'm afraid I can't afford to die. Even if I return among the living soon, the Abyss would likely take me over again.(grabs the greatsword with both hands) It seems we will have to do fight then.(concentrates on Kid Buu)

   "Our chances of survival are greater if we cooperate. I will fight alongside you, for now. After this battle is over, regardless of the outcome, I will go my own way again."   

Makuta turns all black, seemingly about to change forms.

Be that way.(nods, awaiting Buu's move)

That's probably one of the funniest responses to Makuta's small speeches I've ever seen.

-Kid Buu toss a ki blast at the pair-

(rolls to the side to avoid the ki blast)

(then jumps up in the air and comes at his head with a mighty double-handed cleave)

Makuta gets hit by the Ki Blast and seems to be killed...

Until the mask he was wearing shoots up into the sky, followed by an array of tentacles and shadows.

   "If that's all you have, this won't take long!"   

Makuta shoots a blast of Shadow Energy at Kid Buu. If it hits, it should damage him quite a bit.

Seeing as Kid Buu can regenerate, I think Makuta can't win. But he'll fight until death, damnit.
