Y'know, here in the WT, it's a tradition to give the new pages to the storywriters. I think. Right, guys?

4I Falcon Dec 19, 2003 09:08 PM

Give, nothing. The storywriters just get them. *snatches the page*

Coppertop Dec 20, 2003 09:01 AM

It seems to be a tradition with my stories, since Radium and 4I and Acid and Defalcon keep giving them to me, and Kaz steals them all :)

Radium Dec 20, 2003 09:03 AM

Kaz is a bad person, but there's only been one story where he was a badguy.

Coppertop Dec 20, 2003 09:10 AM

KaZ is not a bad person. Kaz is cynical and overly picked on. *hugs Kaz*

Gecko Dec 20, 2003 10:19 AM

Hey that page claim is mine! *Snachets it back*
ahahahahaha whoooooooooooooooowwwwww *Trips over*
*page claim is caught by electrik*
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *both Gecko and Falcon are turned into ash*

4I Falcon Dec 20, 2003 01:52 PM

*is not affected by Gecko's nonsense*

*takes the slightly burnt page*

Gecko Dec 24, 2003 12:11 PM

*Steals Falcon's Nonsense sheild*
*Falcon is burnt to a crisp*
*Page claim is destoried*

4I Falcon Dec 24, 2003 01:12 PM

*respawns, and reclaims the page, while giving Gecko a nice, solid boot to the arse*

Any more of this uber-suxness and I'll have you toasted in the story as well. Don't mess with me. I control your literary future.

Moo ha ha.

acid Dec 25, 2003 07:54 AM

I just decided to come here and speed read through this, it's sort of inspiring to write, but for the wrong reasons =\.

Gecko Dec 26, 2003 05:56 PM

:confused: huh?

Kaz Dec 26, 2003 08:18 PM

I'll explain when we're older.

acid Dec 27, 2003 07:21 AM

Kaz is just like that sometimes. Now, I suggest we all calm down and wait for a next chapter. We want there to be a next chapter, don't we?

Gecko Dec 27, 2003 08:40 AM

You're losing out here, Gecko.

Gecko Dec 29, 2003 10:34 AM

Ok than a plate of cookies for falcon *stops*
*Sleeps so he doesn't cause trouble*

4I Falcon Dec 29, 2003 11:09 AM

While I'm at it, it's "Barnacle Wilhelm", not "Barnicle Whilhem."

Gecko Dec 29, 2003 03:07 PM

*Wakes up* huh huh? oh. *Falls asleep*

Coppertop Dec 30, 2003 10:29 AM

Please stop spamming the thread, Gecko.

Gecko Jan 18, 2004 04:59 PM

Can you say Resurrection?

4I Falcon Jan 19, 2004 05:08 AM

Yes, I can. I'll resurrect the topic when I have something to bloody well add to it. Not much of a point in dragging up a month-old topic if there's nothing new to read in it.

Coppertop Jan 19, 2004 12:20 PM

A lot of people could take that hint.

4I Falcon Feb 26, 2004 08:33 AM

Yes, I know it's been a month and a week. Hear me out.
 
Contrary to popular belief, neither E:JF nor SoT are really, truly dead... they have just been brought to a temporary halt for god knows how long now. Unfortunately, that halt has been lengthened due to the fact that my father, after seeing my 71% average report card from last semester, is only allowing me an hour and a half of computer time per night until April, or longer if my average isn't higher than 80%. The stories are still coming along, but painstakingly slowly. And I'm still around in general, just not as much as before.

I will have another chapter of both stories up sooner than you think.

And the characters, per usual, are still coming on strong.

Anyway, that's all I have to say for now. See ya.

Coppertop Feb 26, 2004 01:18 PM

They're complaining over 71%? Perfectionism can be taken too far at times.

4I Falcon Feb 27, 2004 05:52 AM

They want me to have, at very least, 80%. My goal this year is 82.5%. 71% is not great, as one can probably ascertain by this point.

Hee... ascertain.

Coppertop Feb 27, 2004 01:25 PM

I still say that's a little extreme. Then again, who'm I to talk =P

4I Falcon Mar 30, 2004 03:19 PM

OMG FINALLY BACK!
 
After more than three months of waiting, E:JF has finally returned! My writer's block seems to have generally subsided, so I took the opportunity and got writing. The final product is here for your reading pleasure. So read it. >)

Fun fact!: For the entire time that I was writing this chapter, I thought it was Chapter 26. It completely slipped my mind that I had skipped a number. ^^;

Chapter 25: A Double-Edged Sword

It wasn’t long until Electrik felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck, and his glowing effect abruptly stopped as a feeling of sickening dizziness passed through him. He groaned as he leaned against the wall, and shook his head to try to dispatch the sudden affliction, only succeeding in making it worse.
Lori was alerted once by the lack of light, then again by the moan of disconcerted nausea behind her, and she turned to help Electrik. The blue rabbit collapsed into her arms as she moved to support him, and she strained for a moment before steadying herself.
“I’m not going to ask if you’re okay, because you’re not,” Lori muttered to the half-conscious Electrik. “What’s wrong?”
“Urgh…” Electrik groaned. “I… burned out…”
“Oh jeez,” Lori sighed, as she helped the weakened Electrik to a sitting position against the metal wall. “You going to be alright?”
Electrik nodded slowly. “Yeah… I’ll be fine… just need a few minutes to rest…”
“Alright,” Lori said, leaning against the wall.
“No… you get going… destroy the reactor, I’ll catch up later…”
The yellow-furred Jackrabbit sister looked down at Electrik. “You sure?”
“Yeah… I’ll be right behind you, don’t worry about me…”
“Um… alright, if you say so…” Lori quickly checked her weapon, then headed off at a moderate gait, down the corridor of the Moebius arm. Electrik watched her go, then slowly produced a small ebonite rod from in his belt. He gently laid it to the back of his hand, and started rubbing it back and forth…

Lori frowned, checking the integrity of her blaster, as the lizard she had just pistol-whipped collapsed limply to the floor. She prodded it with her foot, then scoffed. “That’s what you get for dropping down right in front of me. It’s not nice to scare people like that, y’know.”
Despite her original misgivings, Lori was able to stay levelheaded as she moved at a rapid pace through the Moebius arm. Even in the dark, Lori’s eyesight proved to be an invaluable asset, as she saw Buster’s cold-blooded minions, who had either avoided Electrik’s shockwave or come to replace the ones who hadn’t, hovering around her, almost begging to be shot. As always, Lori was not one to refuse a request.
Up ahead, she saw the end of the seemingly endless corridors, marked by a door covered in cautions and warnings. Most importantly, she saw the two words she had been waiting for, stencilled in big red letters across the door: Reactor Chamber.
Moving swiftly and silently to the thick metal door, Lori searched for a lock or a keypad of some sort. It didn’t take long to find it, as it was the only thing glowing with a number of different LEDs.
However, she ran into problems when she went to open the door. The keys on the pad were not letters, numbers, or any sort of symbols she recognized. After a few seconds of guessing what the buttons could mean, and aggravated cursing as one idea after another failed to explain the indecipherable markings, she shrugged, and pushed as many of them as she could with the palm of her hand.
To her amazement, the thick metal door slid open, with a loud grinding noise. She stood still for a few moments, somewhat bewildered that her brute-force method actually worked. As it occurred to her that it didn’t matter at this point, she silently ducked into the reactor chamber, gun at the ready.

Wizard was following Gecko’s lead into the heart of the satellite, generally silent, but there was one thing that continued to nag at his mind. There was something wrong with the way Gecko was leading him around. Finally, it got to a point where he knew something was up. “Um, Gecko?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you know where you’re going? You’ve been leading me into a lot of dead ends around here…”
“Of course I know where I’m going. I know this whole station like the back of my hand.”
Wizard glanced at a sign on the wall. “But I could swear I’ve seen this sign at least twice already… Are you sure we’re not just going around in circles?”
Gecko stopped, and looked about silently. Wizard barely had time to duck as the lizard spun around, pulling and firing his laser blaster. The rabbit could only frantically dash away down the corridor as streaking bursts of energy narrowly missed him.
A pinpoint turn around a corner ran Wizard smack into the front of a heavily muscled Schwartzenguard, and he recoiled, startled, before turning around to run as fast as he could in the opposite direction. He didn’t get far that way, either; the hallway was blocked off by the burly forms of two more turtles. The rabbit found himself trapped between Buster’s minions, and he spun around again, a cross of both fear and anger in his eyes, to face the smugly sneering Gecko.
“What are you doing?!” Wizard was practically in hysterics. “What happened to joining our side?”
“Changed my mind,” Gecko snickered. “I’ve decided to help Tank take out your home world, after all. I’ve never seen a whole planet explode before.”
“You traitorous scum-sucker!” Wizard’s fists were clenched painfully tight as he swore. Gecko only laughed.
“Don’t worry, you won’t have to watch. You’re the first to go.” The lizard snickered again, and nodded to the two turtle guards standing behind Wizard, who promptly grabbed his arms, immobilizing the struggling rabbit. Gecko sneered as he lifted his laser blaster once more, levelling it toward Wizard. “It’s curtains for you, rabbit…”
Suddenly, one of the guards’ grip loosened, and he gurgled as he fell to the ground. The other one was not long in following suit, and then a white, roaring blur rampaged past Wizard, knocking Gecko against the wall and flattening the remaining Schwartzenguard. The lizard yelped loudly as he bounced off the unyielding metal wall, and collapsed to his knees, doubled over in pain.
Seizing the opportunity as soon as it arose, Wizard leapt forward, and gave Gecko a solid kick to the face. The treacherous reptile was launched straight up by the power of the kick, and backflipped completely, landing hard on his belly. He made no effort to cushion his fall.
Wizard nudged the motionless form with his foot, then smirked, and spat derisively. “I’ll find the Megalith reactor myself, then.”
With that, he was off, crusading alone through the dark tunnels of the Eschaton.

Derby: Acronym clearance.

MORE OF TEH CHAPPIE!
 
There was a loud rumbling noise as the immense force of the Moebius reactor’s explosion crashed up against the sturdy failsafe door, and Lori lay on the floor, gasping for breath. The thick metal door had almost closed before she was safely out of the reactor chamber, and it was only her flying dive through the narrow space left that saved her life.
A ghostly form appeared before her, and she waved at it. Electrik grinned, and extended a hand to help her up, which she gladly took hold of. Thankfully, she wasn’t shocked by contact.
“So I take it that the reactor’s been covered,” Electrik said, as he hauled Lori to her feet. “How’d it go?”
She snickered. “Easy pickings. This gun did a number on it in a second flat. Kudos to your brother. By the way, how are you faring?”
“Oh, much better than before, thanks. I don’t usually burn out like that, but when I do it hurts like nobody’s business.”
“I’d imagine,” Lori mused. “So, shall we get out of here?”
“We shall. The others could use some help.”
With that, they were gone, and the Moebius arm was soon empty once again.

“Buster?”
The turtle in question turned to face his brother. “Yes, Slicer?”
“Tokivi wants to see you. He says it’s important.”
Buster nodded, and Slicer moved aside to reveal the lizard second-in-command, who saluted stiffly. The turtle saluted back, impatiently, and his lips were curled downward into an irritated frown.
“Well? What hindrance do you have to report to me this time?”
Tokivi was taken aback slightly by the harshness of the inquiry, but he regained his composure quickly. “Sir, two of the reactors have been destroyed by the rabbits. Both the Moebius and Caduceus reactors are gone.”
Buster turned his back on the lizard, sighing and rolling his eyes in frustration. “Wonderful. How much I wanted to hear that.”
“We’ve also detected a ship attached to one of the satellite’s exhaust vents. We suspect that it’s how the rabbits got into the Eschaton in the first place.”
This was some good news. The silver-shelled turtle turned around again, slowly, with a wide grin on his face. “Reeeally.”
“Yes, sir. It appears to be a destroyer of some sort. No model like it is used by our forces… or by the Carrotans, either, for that matter.”
“Good. Destroy it. If we can’t keep those furry buggers out, then we’ll lock them inside the Eschaton instead, and we’ll deal with them from the inside. Besides, even if this whole station goes down – and I can be safely assured that it will not, am I correct?” Buster narrowed his eyes dangerously at Tokivi.
“It w-won’t, sir…” Tokivi mumbled, clinging to his composure under the ice-cold stare of his superior.
“Good. Now then, you know what you have to do. Get doing.”
“Yes, sir.” Tokivi saluted again, then strode quickly out the door. Buster sat down comfortably as Slicer entered.
The younger turtle sneered. “Destroy the rabbits’ method of escape, thereby trapping them inside the satellite. You are a genius, brother.”
Buster smiled coldly. “That’s how I got to the top, brother.”
They laughed.

Well, I warned him that would happen. I did. I could get proof for you right now, but I'm too lazy. ^^;
