"All right, let's see if we can find him. He really needs a deputy of some sort, but I don't really know anyone well enough to suggest someone who might be capable."
Edward was in the middle of directing some newcomers to set up camp off the chalk roads, so Galenfea and SttQ waited until he'd finished. At length, he turned to them. Galenfea thought that he really did look tired, and a little wobbly on the AK47 he was still using as a crutch, but she didn't mention it.
"We were wondering, given that we're really short on first aid supplies, if it would be a good idea for me to go and retrieve my first aid kit from my house. It's much better stocked than the one I've been using, but I didn't have time to grab it on the way out." Or sense, she mentally added. "I got here without running into any bots, and I'm pretty sure I can find the way back there. If it's going to be a while before the Ypurs arrive, we may need it."

Vacation is where I want to be by MinionOfHades1

Anyway, I admit that romance of any variety is really not my thing (which brings up the question of why I care about the Pit anyway). However, I do think this could provide some nice ammunition for whichever Agents can retain their lunch while reading it (and perhaps those who can't).
Also, I'm likely doing /something/ wrong, so if I am don't be afraid to tell me. XD

As far as I can recall, there ain't no centaurs. The Fantasia stuff is pretty much contained to one or two characters wandering around, but that's about it.

I've been amused before at how, as hard as some of us try to write Sooper Speshul Teh Awesomez characters, it's actually... it's like trying 2 rit3 n3tspk. Doesn't come naturally. (I would know. My boss tried to make me use @ instead of at in a document yesterday, where the word "at" actually fit, and easily. Biggest argument we've had in weeks.)

Pretzel looked up from her computer, glad that she'd thought to bring several extra batteries with her, just in case.
'We're in the Board Bunker. It's because the normal Board's under attack by Trolls and Ypurs. Apparently this is a normal situation for this time of year.' she replied, giving Lleu a wan smile. 'It's the first time it's happened to me, so I can't really speak from experience as to how long it'll last.'

[This isn't part of what's going on, but I thought you saw another army coming from a different direction. Which is why I felt safe to toss the EMPs, I'm really sorry about the mix up.]
Shouted Kyoki to Elemarth during a lull in the action, "That should be most of the EMPs, keep going with the cameras and explode things as necessary!"

"Thanks for forgetting me," she muttered irritably.
She shouted up to the people on the roof, "Okay, if you want to use EMP bombs this close to the bunker, you're going to have an issue with the cameras. Which do you want to use? What do you want me to do right now?"
[Signing off until tomorrow early evening.]

Feeling rather embarrassed about nearly frying her own cameras, Kyoki shouted back down "Yes! You'll be alright, but not the electronics!"
Moments after Elemarth escaped, the EMP bombs went off with a quiet and rather anti-climactic *tzing* The spambot army sparked a little and slowed to a stop.
After ensuring that Elemarth was properly clear of the area, Kyoki began lobbing her higher yield explosives to conceal Elemarth's escape route from the spambots. Rhythmic loud whuds with accompanying showers of spam-metal and the dying shouts of "PIiiicsss...." soon filled the air.

I'm gone, really, but talking to Sedri, and noting that those who suggest change should be definitive, I'd like to add a rider.
Write a non-Sue featuring your usual agents. Having to get to grips with a new pair of agents makes it difficult - half the reason TOS works is you knew the agents, knew their characters, and cared about them. I'm fairly sure half the reason most of you like our Bad Slash missions is they're a bit of a soap opera, and that's no bad thing. Put your usual slaying agents into a non-Sue, and see how they react. It'll be a lot more interesting than new and unknown agents.

"EMP bombs are just for electronics, right?" Elemarth yelled back up. Her eyes stayed glued to the oncoming army. "But it won't be any good for our cameras. I -- I think I need to run."
The next thing she should do, she knew, was get up to the roof. It seemed like that was where the best action was. But she had to get out of the way of all this first. She chose a few bombs to cover her escape before the EMP bombs, threw them at the bots, and leaped back to the bunker.

Stick with what you've been writing and spending a lot of time on. Better that than a rushed job by far.

With one last clunk, Kyoki set down the ladder on a nearby wall. Quickly sticking a camera to a nice tall vantage point, she jogs over to Niely to check out what was the cause of the exclamation.
Growling at the sight of the spambot army, she started preparing the explosives she planned to use. "Niely, when the spambots get in range I'm gonna toss a few EMP bombs to slow them down. Get ready to use what ever you want." With that said, Kyoki powered up the EMP bombs - which began emitting a soft whirring noise.
As the spambots marched closer, the whirring noises from the bombs changed to an irritatingly loud whine. "3...2...1! Fire in the hole!" shouted Kyoki as she threw the bombs into the midst of the spambot army.

and saw a huge number of spambots a block and a half down the street, followed by a couple of war ypurs that she could see throwing a few, but not nearly enough, spambots aside. Proving again that they were indeed intelligent, or guided by someone who was, the bots were working together to destroy the street.
"What are we going to do?" she shouted to Silikat and the people one the roof. "That's a lot of them right there, if we have enough explosives..."

It was very windy. Checking to see if anyone was watching, Niely struck a quick superman pose before pulling out her sniper scope (really, it was just a monocular, but sniper scope sounds cooler) and scouted the area.
"Great Seasons!" she exclaimed. A whole army of spambots was marching down the street, demolishing anything in their path.

Elemarth couldn't believe what things looked like outside of the bunker. Instead of friendly boarders, there were bots racing around.
"Send me ypur pics! Send me ypur pics!" was the noise scattered around in the background.
Elemarth grabbed her pole with both hands and swung it at a bot that was running towards her.
"Send me yyyyyyyyy -"
"Get off our board!" Elemarth yelled. "Go annoy someone who deserves it! How dare you come mess everything up!"
"Send me ypur pics!"
How about real ypurs? How do you like those? Elemarth silently asked as she pulled out her first explosive.

Kyoki returned (after a therapeutic round of Explode the Spambot) in time to catch the tail end of Niely's decision. Searching around, she found an extend-able ladder and followed Niely up the stairs.

"I'll go with Nielymoon, who has a wifi," Elemarth decided. "Are we ready?" She was already excited, unusual for someone usually pacifistic -- but that was what hanging around the PPC did, and these spambots had attacked her beloved Board! She picked up her bag and her pole and headed in the opposite direction from Kyoki.
Time to destroy some bots!

"But I want to go up to the roof to get an aerial view. Anyone want to come?" Niely asked. "I think that if I have a long plank of wood I can cross from rooftop to rooftop a rain fire from above onto the spambots." she said.
Throwing her bag over her back, she made her way towards the nearest building. The automatic doors had been shut off, so she fired her shotgun into the doors. Kicking aside the glass, she made her way to and up the stairs.
