Tomb Vs Animeverse, Act 3 (Recovered)

[Dracos]

The gargoyle doesn't move.

Fearless Leader

[kpjam]

She places her other foot, right next to her current foot, and looks up at the Gargoyle.  If it still fails to move she'll looks down and sidestep to the right, keeping her feet as close to the wall as possible while keeping her balance.  After each set of steps she'll look up, and continue this way until she's a foot past the doorway.

[Dracos]

Nothing happens, the gargoyle sits there unmoving.

Fearless Leader

[kpjam]

Alita decides to press her luck and continues around the room in the same manner  - Trying to keep her heels within an inch of the wall, and looking up after every step.  

She'll move until either the gargoyle is triggered or she gets to the other door.

[Dracos]

Roughly halfway across the room, the gargolye suddenly slammed down, the various gargoyle claws nearby suddenly latching onto Alita as the gargoyle roared and turned towards her.

Fearless Leader

[Figment]

Seeing the gargoyles grab Alita, and the large gargoyle in the center drop down, Huitzil charged at the big one, firing his argon laser before he attempted to body-check the large creature.

[Dracos]

And lo the gargoyle turned, it's fearsome limbs not slowed in the least as coating of frost covered it, it's arms reaching out to ensnare Huitzil as it matched the iron golem, muscle for muscle, pushing against him with it's four limbs.  It's stone face roaring at him.

Fearless Leader

[kpjam]

Alita pulled herself away from the wall using all the force she could muster.  She tried to gather herself to leap to the left, eyeing the big gargoyle.

Assuming she breaks her bindings, she keeps an eye on the gargoyle, ready to slash at any part of it that gets within range of her blade.

[Dracos]

It strained Alita, but she managed to tear free of the restraining stone claws.  Getting a bit away from the wall and leaping to the left, she watches the gargoyle apparently swing a free limb at Huitzil.

Fearless Leader

[kpjam]

Alita attempted to cut at the limb with her blade.

[Figment]

Drawing his legs up into his torso to evade the kick, Huitzil rotated his entire body, using his arms as the point of rotation, until the bottom of his torso was facing the gargoyle's chest, at which point he extended his legs full-force in a powerful attack.

[thepanda]

There was little time to think as the events happened so quickly. Mercury sprung into action, trying to circumvent the twin titans battling in the center room. There was little point in trying to fly over them as the gargoyle had already demonstrated incredible leaping abilities. Reaching the other doorway or destroying the creature; those were the only choices. And as here normal attack had been less than effective...

She holds a Mercury planet attack ready should the stone monster turn its attention her way while making for the door..

[Dracos]

The Gargoyle was pushed back, roaring as Huitzil's 'legs' were thrust into it's torso.  Alita's blade coming down on it's upper arm, digging in but not doing much more damage than that.

Fearless Leader

[Merc]

Recca headed back towards the room at the gargoyle's roaring, and watched as everyone else joined the fight against the stone beast from the entrance.

Unsure that he could take a hit from the beast like his metallic companions, he summoned Nadare and looked for spots in the gargoyle's body to snipe at without hitting his companions.

"Get behind him and attack from there!" he shouted. "I can attack from this direction, so give me some clear shots!"

[kpjam]

Alita pulls out her blade, and runs back into the hallway they came in from.

"Huitzil" fall back!
