Float On, Firelizard Chase!

[Da'chetre]

The little Noon firelizard floated through the warm noon air, her flight more a glide on the warm drafts of air coming up from the jungle. She had eaten a bit before taking off into the air, a nice glow to her hide as she hummed to herself. Gett’se was pleased with herself, having such a lovely afternoon for her first Flight, the sunlight warming her similarly hued wings. The pale-sunlight Noon swung back and forth in a lazy drift. Normally she would have taken a nap after her snack-foraging, but today seemed a better day for… other things.

She crooned loudly into the air, calling potential suitors. She made sure to do it far from home—she didn’t want silly Hetiklyc or the strange Beskar or the easily-distracted Viinir to be the ones to catch her, she saw enough of them, thankyouverymuch—but not so far into the jungle as to find no one.

Let them show up, and let her show them that this Noon could put her reserved energy to the best of uses!

And we'll all float on, ok.

((Yaaay, my first Chase. XDD As you can see, FLIZZARD~ If you want more info on her she’s here: http://clanrahl.webs.com/ebbiksfoofi.htm about halfway down the page. :3 Just a simple little chase, I’ll post every day or two (or more often if we get a few people today and we all post quickly.) All in all, I’ll just take it at whatever pace the group sets. Just have fun! ))

ooc| PC The FIRE EVERYTHING Cyclone Blitzkrieg

Gett'se would not have to wait long for somebody to show up, because luckily for the Noon, Blitzkrieg almost never stayed home. Partly because he just had too much energy to stay indoors all day, and partially because Geoffrey sort of encouraged him being far, far away from sensitive equipment and fragile glass containers and beakers and whatnot. As soon as he heard her crooning, the Cyclone, who had been spiraling into a dive towards the ground from high up in the atmosphere, snapped his wings open and pulled out of it to soar off towards the source.

Of course, things like "conserving energy" and "thinking ahead" weren't things Blitzkrieg understood, and so he sped off like a rocket fueled by… More rockets, or something. REALLY FAST, is the point. The black and grey blur zipped right past Gett'se, in fact, although maybe it was intentional, because he glided into return and came as did thing right back to barrel roll to a stop in front of her, flapping his wings to stay in place and trilling loudly in his exuberant way. SUP.

((NPC Quake Filtch))


The small, muddy colored creature jerked his head upright at the sound of that pretty little voice. In another moment of spastic flapping he took the air and headed the general direction of  Gett’se, all the while chirping and muttering to himself. The noon was easy enough to find and he eagerly approached. In truth, he was not the prettiest creature that ever lived. In fact he always seemed rather scuffed up on top of having a drab, ugly hide. The spastic, twitchy movements he constantly made weren't any more of a turn on either. He managed to squeak out a half choked sort of chirp in greeting. Don't judge a book by it's cover?

Don't worry, he was dead set on showering her with all his unwanted attention... Oh hey, was that a bug? He lunged to the side for a moment to grab at a passing butterfly. When he returned he smiled warmly/creepily at the little noon, a colorful wing flapping from the corner of his mouth as he chewed. Seksay, right? Now let's get this show on the road!

[Da'chetre]

Gett'se squeaked as a blur streaked past her, her wings flaring up as she dropped into a hover just as Blitzkrieg came back around to stop in front of her, his trilled greeting being blinked at as she was still surprised by his sudden appearance.

And look, another! She turned her head to chirrup happily as another showed up (a Quake, this time, she got a little variety!) and then her voice died in her throat as she again blinked in her surprise. Had he just eaten a bug? And... hm... that smile was a little disconcerting, though watching Filtch eat mostly just made her hungry.

Well, that seemed like everyone she was going to get, and while she didn't want to be too hasty, she also didn't want to hover here and get caught so soon. And there was no good way to pick up speed with one suitor alongside her and the other in front of her, so with a whistle she simply stopped flapping.

And fell.

Like a pale-hued star, she fell from the sky, her little talons cast up towards the males she had just left in the air above her in a fashion that seemed like a wave. Buh-bye boys! Catch her if you can!

Surely she would catch herself before she hit the ground... right? She was doing this on purpose... RIGHT?!

((Thank you guys for joining! Posts will come faster now--I just wanted to wait and make sure this didn't catch anyone else's eye first. :3 Have at it! I will post as soon as I can after both of you lovlies have replied.))

[Geoffrey A-13]

It's okay, little lady, he has that effect on — ENEMY SIGHTED TARGET ACQUIRED. The startled Cyclone twisted to face Filtch at the Quake's arrival, throat bulging out as he pushed himself up and hissed a raspy warning at the wannabe suitor. It was bad enough he was trying to horn in on his courtship, here, but just look at him. Slovenly sod. At least he didn't worry about having trouble taking him out of the competition. He didn't look like he'd seen a day of warfare in his life, and Blitzkrieg, on the other talon, was master and commander of the good ship Whoopsibrokeit.

He had just punched himself up and prepared to fire the cannons at the Quake when Gett'se performed a cannonball stunt of her own. Straight down. With a little bit of awkward screaming and clapping and happy about to adjust his launch, Blitzkrieg dived after her, wings practically glued to his side as he went spiraling downwards at the Noon like a streamlined rocket with a loud cry of determination. No, that wasn't on purpose to accelerate faster or anything like that; he just forgot to do anything other than FALL, INTENTIONALLY, NOW. Flying smart whuzzat.

[Meliai]

While the greeting he got from Gett'se was acceptable enough, the cyclone present wasn't so friendly. The Quake looked momentarily bewildered. Sure they were going to be competing very soon, but that was no reason to throw a hissy fit. Filtch gave a half hearted hiss in return, although Blitzkrieg was right about one thing, he was not prepared for a fight at all. Not that he would have to worry about it. In another moment his two newfound companions dropped from the sky.

The quake floundered for a moment, as if he never quite got the hang of his wings, but he was soon in pursuit behind the other two, the butterfly wing now trailing behind him. Filtch, however, didn't do much better at falling than flying and struggled to keep up with the noon. He tried to make himself as streamline as possible, but those wings just kept getting in the way. Hopefully no one was paying too much attention to his failure.

[Da'chetre]

Gett'se fell and fell, the trees below rushing up at her. Blitzkrieg was doing a fine job of keeping up, and while Filtch lagged behind she chirruped at him, her voice carried on the air to encourage him. He could do it! But then her little draconic grin turned on the Cyclone rocketing after her and she knew it was time.

She felt the wind brushing past her even as she fell and she turned, letting it catch again under her wings. It shot her sideways for a moment before she spun and then leveled out once more, the warm air sweeping under her sunny wingsails and arching her upwards, back into the sky and away from the foliage below. The strain in the motion was strong on her wing joints, but the thrill of a swooping flight distracted her from any potential hurt.

Her tail whipping back and forth, she trumpeted a tease to her suitors. They certainly couldn't catch her so easily!

[Geoffrey A-13]

ABORT ABORT ABORT!

FLUMP.

While the Noon might have been able to correct her flight path on a whim, the weapon of a Cyclone lacked the same finesse, and Blitzkrieg went whistling on by like a a noisy spear until he went smack into the loose shadow-cool dirt of the jungle's heart. Now he really looked like a Cyclone, trying to get up and get back in the air in a whirlwind of black and smoky white and a little frustrated burst of fire as he finally got upright, leaving a large fern left harmlessly smoking at the tip of one leaf as he flapped, flapped, and got airborne again to shoot up after Gett'se and Filtch.

Wouldn't catch her so easily indeed. Spreading his wings wide, he lifted himself with powerful strokes, putting every bit of tiny muscle he had into catching back up as the Noon rose through the atmosphere. He hadn't forgotten about Public Enemy #1, never fear Quakeykins, but first he had to actually be in bombing range of him. That meant up we go!

[Meliai]

There was a slight advantage to being behind in this particular case. When Gett'se abruptly changed course and Blitzkreig shot down toward the ground, Flitch had a little more time to calculate. He did not come close to hitting the ground, but trying to change direction and avoid tree branches was not better for this fumbling fool. He squeaked in a very unmanly and panicked fashion, not wanting to lose sight of this beautiful lady. Eventually he righted himself enough to follow.

A quick glance back elicited another squawk. The crazy cyclone was catapulting toward them as if nothing had happened, an bloodthirsty gleam in his eye. It was clear he wasn't just after Gett'se, but also the bumbling quake. He slapped furiously, acting as coordinated as he had since he arrived. Fear is quite the motivator. And while he flew toward Gett'se, his goal was no longer to reach her, but to get away from the crazy cyclone sporting a look that said 'ohgoddon'tlethimkillme.'

[Da'chetre]

While the two males flapped and crashed and fumbled behind her, Gett'se floated on as she had been before, gently lofting into the air as she found warm drafts to filly her wingsails. She glanced behind her every now and again, squeaking her amusement at the pair, especially when she saw Blitzkreig burst forth from the trees again. Oh my, he was quite determined, wasn't he?

Of course, his reappearance seemed to startle the Quake quite badly and he came at her now with terror whirling in his eyes. She stopped her lazy flight and turned to trumpet back at them. Play nice, boys! And with another twirl in the air she began to go up again, more sharply than before, though not straight up. She instead used the air currents and swirled upwards like she was on an invisible, thin spiral staircase. She woudln't be so hard to catch... if they paid attention to her more than they did to each other.

((Thanks guys for being patient with me! I didn't expect Hawaii to be so entrancing. XP lol. This will probably be ending next round unless I simply can't decide on a winner, then it'll probably be the one after that. <333 Get them in quick and we'll getterdone!))

[Geoffrey A-13]

Blitzkrieg growled and snapped his mouth at the Quake. Oh no you don't, your to escaping him, nobody escapes him! His tail wriggled in the air behind him from the overflow of adrenaline coursing through him, and while it made for a slightly weaving flightpath, he was just bursting with too much energy to keep it all contained. Fortunately for the Cyclone, the Quake was handily converging with the Noon, meaning he didn't have to worry about his flight plan too much. Lucky day!

… Until Gett'se abruptly turned around to yell at them, causing Blitzkrieg to tumble over himself in an aerial somersault as his wings snapped to a stop, just barely remembering to catch himself and keep flying. But! But! But nooo she was supposed be impressed by his ferocity, his prowess, his determination, his success! This wasn't what he wanted at all. ): Sad Firelizard is sad.

He had to pick quickly, go after Filtch or go after Gett'se, and... Oh, dangit! With an angry screech at Filtch — he could find you later and would, and he'd then he'd teach you a lesson you sorry blighter — Blitzkrieg and all his concentration on finding and catching the same currents that Gett'se had in order to catch up as quickly as possible. Come baaack, pretty girl!

[Meliai]

Filtch strained against the air, certain that his doom was to come in only a few more moments. But Gett'se didn't seem so eager to have a murder occur at her chase, much to Filtch's relief. He paused in mid air just long enough to stare back at his opponent and stick his tongue out in a triumphant manner. Ha! Take that you big meanie!

His eyes then turned to the pretty noon as she swirled farther from him. He spread his wings to catch the currents of air, but he wasn't the most coordinated flit. He managed to get some help with lift, but not without lots of extra fumbling and flapping. He trilled excitedly as he approached his goal, slowly and awkwardly, but most assuredly.

[Da'chetre]

((They’re both so adorkable, I love them both very much, which made this outcome hard to decide—so I went with a random number generator to give me my result. <33 Hope you two had fun, and I hope I’ll see you in another chase in the future, as it’s my intent to hold several.))

Gett’se just kept going up and up, having the best time on this warm and lofty afternoon. She didn’t even bother to look behind her, knowing that surely one of them would catch up. She didn’t even mind who at this point—they were both suitably determined and rather cute. Sure, the Quake was a little silly, but that could be endearing. And the Cyclone would surely fight anyone to have her affection. So really, guys, it’s just a shame she couldn’t have you both!

And then!

She was caught up by the missile of a Firelizard. She felt Blitzkrieg come in close and she turned so she wouldn’t get hit by him, reaching out with her little talons to grab him. She trilled her congratulations, practically giggling as she let him close. He was quite the flyer—surely the fall would be just as spectacular and crazy. And with any luck, she could convince him to leave poor Filtch alone after all was said and done.

[Geoffrey A-13]

Well that was awful rude, not bothering to look at him even after he had gone through the effort of sacrificing rivalry with another male on the name of catching the prize first. C'mon, Gett'se, he was doing all of this just for you! Eyes tinged red, the Cyclone put on an extra burst of speed and – she was his! Or, he was hers, as she dodged aside to be the one to grab him instead.

Thrilled by this decisive victory, Blitzkrieg twined tightly with the Noon. Screw you, Filtch, to the victor goes the spoils! And no, if anyone was wondering, Blitzkrieg does not share. His lady! Now and forever! Or, until he got bested in a fight over her, anyway. Ah, yeah, good luck with getting him to leave the threat of another suitor alone, Gett'se. Gooood luck. For now at least the Quake was free to make an escape plan for the future, as Blitzkrieg had other things on his mind.

ooc|8D Go little 'krieg go! xD This was srsly an adorable fun chase. You will definitely be seeing me in your future chases <3
