*Mortar, noticing that Orn and Smough are waiting at the gates, opens them quickly and hugs Smough, then Orn*
Oh, it's great to see you guys back! Good news, I'm alive again!
*This was said more for Smough than Orn, since, you know, he killed Mortar*
What have you two bastards been doing since you left?

[i]Ornstein simply chuckled, nodding towards his old friend as he spoke. He sounded older, for some reason. Smough was silent.[/i] O: "Hey, Mortar. Just been taking care of the kids, really. Got two little brats. Olivia and Severin. It's...been a while." [i]Under his helm, the Dragonslayer grinned delightfully, as if he had hoped to see Mortar. Smough spoke up, his voice deep yet calm.[/i] S: "We decided to come by for a fight. Course, if you're still up for one after...last time..." [i]He seemed to recall Mortar's death, and lowered his head sadly.[/i]
-
I heard Nora was pregnant, congratulations Orn. *As he goes to hold out his hand to shake he notices Smough's darker tone* I'm sorry Smough, it was more my fault that I died. And i would have come back too if my dad didn't keep me hostage. I'd love to have a fight with you guys, and you can meet ISIC.
-
O: "Thanks, man." S: "ISIC? Mmm. Alright, sure. Happy to hear that you're down for a fight. Arena, I assume?" [i]Smough anchored his massive hammer to the dirt, looking down at Mortar.[/i]
-
Why not? Haven't been there in a little while, mostly been going out with Serenity
-
O: "Serenity? Nice, man." S: "Congrats. Still forever alone here." [i]Smough chuckled to himself, clearly not bothered by any romance. Although he had gotten close to females, he never attempted to actually make the first move.[/i]
-
Thanks guys. Don't worry Smough, you'll probably find someone nice that you won't cannibalize. *He chuckles nervously after a moment, probably making the moment feel more awkward*
-
S: "Eh, I don't eat people anymore. Haven't ate someone in years, really." O: "Yeah...Let's get going, I guess."
-
Indeed. Let's go over to the Arena, see once and for all which team of two is superior. *He chuckles slightly as he starts walking to the arena*
-
O: "Sweet!" [i]The Dragonslayer and the Executioner followed Mortar, both chatting obnoxiously as they got closer and closer to the arena.[/i]
-
So, how old are your little ones Orn? *As they are walking to the arena Mortar tries to make good small talk*
-
Edited by Orn: 9/7/2016 7:42:39 PMO: "Both of em? Eighteen. Long story." S: "Yeah...it's a pretty long story to explain why Orn is suddenly forty-six." [i]Ornstein chuckled to himself, nodding.[/i]
-
Hmm... I knew I was out for a while but I didn't figure it that long. *Mortar smiles a little after he says that* Now you can finally say that you're older than me.
-
O: "Well, uh..." S: "I'm still 29 though. Whatever the hell happened with Orn and Nora made them age...differently. It's weird."
-
That does sound weird. But, then again, I have used time travel with my PST sometimes. That's how ISIC is here
-
S: "Sweet." [i]The two fell silent, still following Mortar.[/i]
-
*When they get to the arena they see a strange robot. On it's back is a large rocket launcher, it has an arm cannon, and small legs*
-
S: "Seriously? Technology? We should get Angry." O: "Shut up! You're spoiling the pla-" S: "YOU SHUT UP!" [i]Ornstein went dreadfully silent, still following Mortar.[/i]
-
Mortar: Hey, ISIC! Got a couple friends of mine who wanna battle in a 2v2. You think you can use your sword for this? ISIC: That's what you fitted me for Mortar. *His right arm, which usually holds his plasma arm cannon, retracts and forms a three foot long white colored rapier. Once he does this Mortar faces Orn and Smough* Mortar: ISIC was a rogue magnus AI that I... Rescued... And convinced to work for the Dojo.
-
O: "Well...that's just nice." [i]Both the Knight and the Executioner raised their weaponry, prepared for battle, it seemed.[/i]
-
*Mortar smiles as he pulls up his mask, then forms his sword, it seems to glow slightly brighter* Mortar: who goes first?
-
[i]Smough speaks up, his voice gruff and serious.[/i] "...You." [i]The two waited for their opponents to attack.[/i]
-
Alright then. *Mortar readies his sword, beginning to circle the two. ISIC stays where he is, holding up a hardlight shield on his left arm*
-
[i]Ornstein and Smough pick out who they plan on targeting, evident by the series of murmurs and nods that the two exchanged. They seemed to have a plan.[/i]
-
*Mortar quickly jumps at Orn, while ISIC seems to target Smough, slowly beginning to advance*
