Zurakian Stronghold

Nowhere. The source seems to be of nothing, or more likely to be hidden from sight.

Darren stops mid transformation and his crippled frozen energy pieces reconstruct themselves into his whole being. All is just as it was relative moments ago... unless he tries to move. The very moment he tries to take a step, the hyper kinetic energy is robbed of him.

Decu's throat is gaping wide and his mouth sealed shut. There is a pressure on the sides of his skull that he manages to ignore. He is testing his forbidden powers for the first time, unknowingly playing with a cracked mirror of Zurakian Energy.

Without warning, Darren is returned to his normal pace of time, but his kinetic energy doesn't match as flawlessly as it should, causing him to be thrown into the clouds far away from the Stronghold.

The Toa Manas lets out a poisonous breath and sinks back into the slower entropy around him. Protodermis fluid bleeds through his clenched teeth, pooling in his lower lip until it drips down his face and onto the floor. His thoughts begin to cool, although they threaten to flare back to life if given the slightest touch.

@arr and RR.

OOC: Sorry for the late response.

IC: The entire fleet, still operating at kakama speed, has time for only a few actions. Sending out a general order for all operating Kraata to do something, the fleet begins Blasting themselves internally with dozens of high powered kanoka of magnetism, each war ship assumes an identical and hugely powerful magnetic charge. In addition to this, the hundreds of magnatism kraata on board each ship extend their influences to the surrounding Toa legion, and all other airborne forces in play, enhancing them with the same powerful charge. The Magnetic charges are more than capable of sending every force streaking in opposite directions from every other force in a sudden, and violent manner. Matter in the area is severely distorted due to the sudden presence of hundreds of powerful magnetic charges, and most likely is damaged.
 

The second action taken by the fleet is simply to activate all engines and blast away from the self destructing Berserker. While the initial force of repulsion rockets the fleet away far faster than they would have been able to travel ordinarily, their kakama enhanced forms would maintain a constant speed once the initial inertia from the magnetic force wears of.


The third, and last action taken by the war ships is to also enhance themselves with gravity kanoka, reversing gravity upon themselves and thus, causing their initial magnetism propelled flight to send them rocketing upwards into space at lightning speeds, now propelled by both magnetism and gravity.

In addition to these actions, hundreds of on board Kraata attempt to help. Dozens of Gravity Kraata try and send the allied  airborne  forces into orbit while hundreds of plasma Kraata attempt to absorb energy from the attack, rerouting it through the fleet systems. Hundreds of hunger Kraata also try and drain the incoming energy. 

The significant number of airborne forces, among others, also enhanced with kakama, attempt to launch a quick defense before they are promptly sent hurtling away through the fleet's actions. In the event something hinders the kraata of magnetism from affecting the force, the following actions take place.
- 6 of each variety of Bohrok Kal attempt to use their powers to affect the explosion of energy. Electricity tries to absorb electrical energy and direct it elsewhere, magnetism seeks to save itself by repelling itself away from the attack, Vacuum attempts to create vacuums behind the incoming energy in an attempt to re direct some of it, plasma attempts to absorb heat and re direct it, sonics attempts to cause a sonic boom to disrupt the integrity of the incoming energy, and gravity attempts to rip all of the forces upwards and into space.

- 120 Pahrak attempt to use their seismic abilities to send waves of seismic energy barreling outwards into the incoming energy, seeking to deflect or disrupt it.

- 141 Kohrok attempt to freeze the oncoming energies, or, at the very least, weaken them significantly.

- 77 Tanok attempt to absorb heat away from the attack and redirect it elsewhere.

- 32 Bohrok Kaita attempt to use their powers to freeze, send seismic energies, or absorb heat as their particular fusion allows.

- 3 Surveyor Wings attempt to shield themselves with two energy shield capable krana while also using hunger and sonics to attempt to destabilize the attack.  

- 30 Hunger weapons utilize hunger to try and drain the energy attacks.

- 7 Gravity weapons try and add their own gravity powers to the mix in order to send the forces rocketing upwards.

- 56 Hau units attempt to shield the fleet of warships.

OOC: In theory, the ZE energy, unless managing to get inside the war ships, shouldn't be able to prevent them from so directly modifying their own physical magnetic structures.

OOC: Ah, I must have missed that. 

IC: The Oohnorak blinks, mumbling a few things very quietly.
"A heart light...So construct a body? Certainly a time consuming solution...And it won't just regenerate again? This isn't common...Very good though."

The Oohnorak mentally contacts another Oohnorak before looking up from the Kraanohi and adressing the Red Hunter.
"Apparently, this is best understood as what a matoran would call a heart light. I believe this element contains both his mind and main energy source. I'll hold for a quick mental read to determine if the element is currently engaged in any tasks. Barring some unforeseen occurrence, I believe this element requires a body to be constructed."

An Oohnorak grabs a small box and scuttles over with it. Opening the lid, the Visorak carefully scoops out a kraata of mind reading. The kraata slides atop the Visorak's pinchers and, turning towards the Kraanohi, directs its powers upon it to determine if it is engaged in any thoughts, activities.

The Kraanohi seems to be mostly dormant, simply existing with just enough mental activity to keep it alive.

OOC: Nah, you're good. If anything, I'm the one who should be apologizing for the late responses
            Also, correct about the ZE

IC: Given that Berserker is in the heart of their fleet, and the instantaneous explosion is expanding at near lightspeed, kakama-enhanced reactions won't be nearly fast enough. Given the benefit of the doubt, only the stragglers at the very outer edge of the fleet might react in time, and even then, they'd have to deal with outspeeding that same near-lightspeed velocity of the blast, not even taking into account any shockwaves the explosion would create and the fact that whatever happened to be out there might not have the required beings/powers to make the intended escape.

    However, just in case:
        Seismic energies: would have an effect, but given the magnitude of the blast, I don't see this swarm of Bohrok having a massive impact
        Freeze: same as Seismic, possibly slightly more effective due to draining the heat away directly, but in a way that wouldn't be protected by the aura
        Heat: This, however, wouldn't get past the aura
        energy shield: probably wouldn't last too long compared to the onslaught
        hunger: same as heat
        sonics: given that the attack is pure energy, destabilizing it would do no more than make it worse
        hau: same as regular energy shield

     Despite a pair of Av-toa's admittedly quick response with lightspeed and solid light trickery activating toa's teleporters, only 50 or so of the toa Legion can be evacuated in time.
     Depending on which Chagrin ships were destroyed, there may be an additional three.

A good minute after the energy storm has subsided, a Surveyor Wing darts into the area at super sonic speeds. Concealed by illusion, the wing circles the area quickly. The Wing is operating at a completely neutral temperature in relation to it's surroundings, emitting no energy in the form of heat that the ZE energy scans would detect. In addition, the Wing's intangibility allows it to move without disturbing the air around it while also enabling it to avoid any detection methods which would locate a physical object.

The Wing flies quick circles about the outskirts of the area, casting it's gaze upon the fortress and watching it intently from afar.

It was just a noise, and probably drowned out by the sound of the Zurakian Energy.
