Hey...I haven't stopped into this old place in awhile. Heh, I remember when there used to be bar fights and shoot outs all the time.
Given the recent influx of tension on Legion World, it sure would be bad if all those suspicious people ended up here at the same time!

Posted by Hrun the Barbarian on :
Hrun bursts into the room sending tables smashing over.
"OATHBREAKER" he roars "Thou must pay"
Hrun lunges at Cobalt Kid and smites him a mighty blow to the head knocking back over the bar and smashing some bottles.
Somewhere in the distance a slightly out of tune upright piano starts playing.
“Yeee Haaaawww” shouts Tamper Lad and starts a real old west Bar Brawl. He runs at Lonestar Ranger and the two of them smash through the window and break the hitching post outside scaring away the horses.
“You. You..You Barbarian you” shouts Caliente at and leaning down from the bar she smashes a bottle over Hruns head.
Hrun merely blinks then rushes at Cobalt again. Another massive punch sends Cobalt spinning out of control into a table which breaks apart sending poker chips scattering all over the floor.

Hrun blinks in slow stupid surprise as Coblat Kid is simply not there any more.
As his brain starts to process the information , Caliente jumps on his back again and (still in western cowgirl mode) starts to bang her fists against his back, small flames jumping from her hands but bouncing off the Barbarians ultra hard skin.
Hrun flicks his hand backwards and almost without thinking knocks her unconscious.
He then activates the Legion World tesseract system and vanishes also with Caliente held firmly under his arm. As he leaves those behind here him say.
“hah this one will make a fine new slave”

Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Security Office File #690 Upon the conclusion of one of Hrun's famous rampages, Cobalt Kid realized the greatest way to destract the Barbarian from causing further destruction to Legion World would be to encourage him to conquer one of the neighboring Barbarian Kingdoms near the United Planets border. Cobalt rallied his own Triumvirate army, and the two set-off.
The conquering was swift, the enemy defeated and Hrun soon began a series of celebrations to pay tribute to the glory won and honorable conduct of valor shown by the warriors-born. Although Hrun took pleasure in the vast array of wenches present, Cobalt (true to form) focused his attentions on Hrun's younger cousin, Brunhilde, known among her people as the Valkrye Princess, whose fiery beauty was only matched by her cold warrior spirit. His charm was infectous and he soon seduced her and the two enjoyed many nights together during this time period, until Hrun was made aware.
Hrun's love for Cobalt as a brother-at-arms made him more lenient in these matters and he gave Cobalt the rare alternative of death by torture or marry his cousin. Cobalt, still drunk and believing his friend to be kidding replied 'guess that leaves marriage for this old wolf, eh old buddy?'.
It was at this time that the Arch Duke of Time attempted to kidnap Ghandi from the time stream and the LMB were called into action, so it was up to myself and Abin to arouse Cobalt to make him rejoin the LMB in battle. We did so, and Cobalt's memories were still so hazy that he did not recall all the details, and probably not the promise, which he thought was a joke at the time anyway. You can quote me directly, when I said, "dammit Cobie, your libido will be the death of us all."

It's an age-old LMBP storytelling technique: if someone seems as though they have done you even a little damage, just pretend that they were fighting an illusion/robot/figment of their imagination so as to remain all-powerful Or, in a pinch, simply create a new power for yourself (that you have, of course, always had but just never used publicly).

Don't wanna kill 'im--just wanna bash that smug face in a little.....it'd feel good, at least for a while.
Only thing that'd really satisfy me is that bastard being brought to justice and recognized by everyone for the murdering fraud he really is!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
You know Lardy, I tried--really tried for the longest time to let it be. I hoped that somehow, the guilt you felt because of your past actions was somehow transferred to me. That you felt some sort of hatred towards me, rather than yourself. And I could live with that, even if it meant losing my best friend. Just to know you were at peace.
But I see now, after all of these months, almost an entire year, that you'll never let that be. You'll always be hounding me, trying to have me arrested, trying to beat me into submission.
And so you must know the truth--somehow, you must regain your entire set of memories. And it will be terrible for you. But I'll be there when you have them again, I'll be there to help you through it. Somehow you'll have to get through all the loss, and all the guilt, but perhaps memories of your children, and your love--no matter how fleeting those moments were--can do it.
Otherwise this war between us will only end in blood.

This man was the very best friend I'd ever HAD!!! He was like my brother, and I would have done absolutely ANYTHING for him---ANYTHING!!!!
Have you NEVER wondered about him? QUESTIONED any of the morally wrong acts he ever committed? Did you ever think he should bear some culpability for what happened to Slim's world?
Well, DID you?!?!?!?
The man's obviously had agendas not in Legion World's interest, like FOREVER, but we always turn a blind eye! The man's got his own MILITIA for Deluise sake!!
To whom is this @#$%&@ accountable??!? Who watches this watchman?!?!
Well, I obviously outlived my usefulness to him, so he disposed of me when he had the opportunity! He didn't anticipate me coming back...how long 'til some of YOU outlive your usefulness to him?!?!
How long 'til Legion World stops being useful to him?!?!?

Nice shot Lardy

<delivers kick right through the up-rights on Lardy>
Right back at you!

Not the first time....
<leaps at Cobalt, Cobalt falls down, Lardy pins him and starts pummeling>
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<takes several shots in the face, but then shifts weight and roles over so now Cobalt is on top>
That's the style Lardy!
<starts pummeling Lardy right back>
Posted by Sir Roy on :
<struggles to feet>
Bloody Liberty! The whole place will start caving in soon! They don't realize they're fighting so hard their powers are working without them even meaning to!
<on omnicom>
Clive! Rocky! Anyone! Come quick! Nova Girl! This is getting ugly!
<someone punches Roy in the face, he ducks and punches him back>
Great, now I'm in this...
Posted by LardLad on :
<grabs him by the shoulders, uses hands and feet to kick him off backwards>
So not yer bitch, Cobalt!
<picks up sword, smacks him in the face with the blunt part of it>
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Ha!
<magnetically pulls Sir Roy's sword from his belt, and nails Lardy in the back of the head with it>
Trying to get me to engage in a sword fight? You know I'm s spearman!
<magnetically rips off the walls of the OK Coral so metal insides are stripped from building and act as spears>
Here, this is a move I used when I saved you that time on Talok VIII! Bet you don't remember that one either...
<incidently, building begins to collapse>
Posted by Tomahawk on :
I finally find a place to get a whiskey and now the whole damn thing is collapsing!
<grabs fella just punched out and leaps through the window with a bottle of whiskey into the mud>

What the hells?
<ducks a flying chair>
Cobalt and him in the middle of all this insanity?!?!
BEAT HIS EVIL ASS, COB--!!!

Ha! This is great!

You idiot! Cut it out!

<spits out tooth>
Ha! You always said I was too good looking anyway!
Hey, Clive! Look out man, its dangerous around here...
<notices everyone else>
Uh...this isn't good...Clive, wake up! You gotta get out of here! You too Roy!
<looks around>
Lardy will be back any second...
Posted by LardLad on :
That all ya got?
<deflects spears thru roof leaving gaping hole>
Stick to swords...if you dare!
RRRRAAAAARRRRHHHHHH!!!
<charges at Cobalt swordfirst>
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<magnetically puts shield up and blocks sword, ripping it from Lardy's hands but sending both of them flying backwards, as Lardy's charge takes a serious toll>
Haha! Nicely...played...
<gets up to feet, shirt in tatters, bleeding>
Down to just fists again? I can dig it. Is this what you wanted Lardy? Are you feeling better? Can you really remember me killing you?!
<charges Lardy again, this time with fists punching>
Posted by Sir Roy on :
<pulling Virgin Lad away, bleeding above the eye>
These two are going to bring down the whole of Legion World...just what we need, two ego-maniacs with super-powers in bezerker rage!
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
THAT'S ENOUGH!!!
<holds blaster in each hand, one pointed at each of them>
Neither one of you makes another step forward. I mean it.
Posted by LardLad on :
<takes big shot to head, defensively knees Cobalt in the breadbasket, both are momentarily stunned>
Yeah...<pants>...feels better than...being stabbed in the back...at least.
Why'd you do it...you bastard...and why.....won't you own up to it?
<staggers to feet, resting hands on thighs, tries to prepare for whatever's next>
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<breathes hard, noticing Lolita, sees Lardy doing the same>
Hey 'Lita...<grins, she's not amused>
Lardy...why can't you see...that I never would try...to hurt you?
I'll punch your face off...even break your bones...but I would never try to kill you...
Posted by LardLad on :
Liar...to the end.
If there's one thing...I know for sure...it's that you've killed me...
<weakly raises fists>
C'mon...you bastard....fight!
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
The two big heroes of the LMB. Ha. Look at all the damage you've done. Can you see it?
Now try to imagine all the damage you've been doing these last few months--in ways you can't see.
You're both a bunch of idiots. You should be arrested on the spot. Be lucky Everyday Girl isn't around right now.
Posted by LardLad on :
Bastard'll piss...on your grave, too, someday, Lolita.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<prepares to raise fists to finish fight with Lardy>
--
<looks at Lolita, sees how upset she is>
Lardy, she's right. Part of me...was hoping...when this fight was over, we'd grab a beer somewhere and laugh it off. That somehow you'd just know.
I...I've made many mistakes along the way. But killing you isn't one of them. You need to believe me. You need to trust me again.
<spits out blood, rips off tattered rag of a shirt>
The fight is over. I certainly hope we don't have another one anytime soon.
<extends hand>
Trust me again? And help me clean all this up?
Posted by LardLad on :
<slaps his hand away>
Clean up your own mess...for once.
<walks out thru what were the saloon doors>
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
(Dammit Lardy, if this doesn't do it, what will? I've lost our friendship then--forever).
Well, Lolita, quite a fine mess, eh...?
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
<slaps Cobalt>
Don't even dare! I warned you! I warned you so many times about this!
How could you? Look at you! You're a bloody mess? Your ribs are definately broken.
Dammit Cobie...sometimes I don't know why I bother...
People actually care about you, you know.
<exits>
Posted by Virgin Lad on :
<comes to>
Ohhhh, my head.
<looks around>
By Deluise's beard! What happened here?!?!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Ow.
<rubs face>
Er, yeah, I'm injured, thanks for slapping me where my tooth was knocked out.
(Is it just me or is she way too overly emotional lately? What did I do?)
<turns to Clive>
Hey Clive. I think I made a huge mistake...
<looks around>
Does anyone actually know who owns this place? Should we just clean it up? I was just taking whiskey from behind the counter...
<suddenly falls forward, catching self on the bar>
Ow...in worse shape than I thought...have to...heal self...
Posted by Tomahawk on :
That was a helluva fight there, pard. You and that Lard-fella were really going at it. If it wasn't for that lil' sexy philly comin' in to stop it, one of you might have ended up in a real bad way.
I can tell you're not feelin' too good about it though. I guess both the big fella and lil' girlie mean somethin' to ya.
When things get rough like that, sometimes its best to let it lie and head off somewhere to clear yer head. I was just off in those yonder mountains not too long ago myself...not a bad place to start.
<grabs whiskey>
I've got my own means o' healin', if you get what I'm sayin'.
Posted by Virgin Lad on :
I've...no idea who owns it. But what a MESS!
<whispers to Cobalt>
You know there's no way that's really Lard Lad, don't you? Why do you indulge that evil...thing?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<healing self>
I'm not so sure of anything anymore, Clive. I could have sworn it wasn't Lardy that long ago...but now it really does seem like him. Just a 'him' that happens to hate me.
<grabs Tomahawk's whiskey>
You're a long way from home, amigo. When did you end up on Legion World?
<considers what Tomahawk said>
Still, you might have a point. Crujeckie isn't around LW much these days. Lolita and Lardy were pretty clear about where they stand with me right now.
Maybe its time I cut out for a bit...?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
PS - did Lardy make me hallucinate or did Double-Header fight himself in that mess? I was waiting for Giant Robotic Lesbian to start trading blows at some point.
Posted by Virgin Lad on :
No, you can't leave!
<takes Cobalt to the side>
I can't believe you'd even entertain the thought that it's really him!
Can't you see? He's going to tear Legion World apart with this--that's his plan!
<whispers>
Why not just, you know...<even lower> take him out? Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<raises eyebrow>
Clive, do you realize what you're suggesting?
<steps back, notices that no one else heard>
No...no, that's not the way. Then I'd just become what he so desperately believes me to be...
<stares away for a minute>
What do you say to you and Tim coming with me, Clive? Take a break from LW and come back with fresh eyes? If I'm not here, we can see what Lardy does with his time.
What about you, Tomahawk? I could always use a guide.
Posted by Virgin Lad on :
I'll come with you, Cobalt. Hopefully, Tim will, too. For some reason, I think it would be a good idea to bring along that Raging Bull character, as well.
<thinks, this retreat may be my best opportunity to convince him>
But what if "Lardy" takes advantage of our absence and pulls something? Who will keep an eye on him?
Posted by Virgin Lad on :
<slaps forehead>
Oh, that's right! My sources tell me he's entered into some contest called "Survivor: Marzal"! That should keep him busy long enough! Perfect timing!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Yes, Raging Bull should definitely come. He and I are old friends...nothing you would know about, unless you read some of the LMB's more secret cases...
I suggest we leave shortly. Let's try to clean up as much as we can first...

[wipes some dirt off his scruffy face]
I'll come... but I'm tellin' ya, I'm not too happy with how you guys let things get outta control here.
My mission has to do with both of you, and I'm not going to let your tempers jeopardize the welfare of Legion World.
Posted by Time Teller Lad on :
Clive, there you are! I got here as soon as I could. What happened to this place? What's going on?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<fixing the bar's porch>
Its not good Tim, and I'm to blame. Seems I've let things get way too out of control these past few months.
Raging Bull is right...which is why I'm taking a little walkabout once the Coral is fixed up again. Clive has agreed to come--interested?
Posted by Raging Bull on :
[whispers to Cobalt Kid]
This Clive fella... he looks kind of like a fancy city slicker, or some kind of movie star. Can he be trusted? Posted by Tomahawk on :
quote:Originally posted by Cobalt Kid: What about you, Tomahawk? I could always use a guide.
Well friend, I always like a good adventure, and before I made it down here to this fancy city, I was up in them hills. I'll gladly take you all up there and be your guide.
We'll need to make sure we've got plenty of supplies: rope, gun powder, whiskey, tobacco, bowie knives, etc.

Don't forget the sunblock, moisturizer, and make-up. Plus an outfit fit for cocktails is always an essential.
Posted by Time Teller Lad on :
Yes, I'll come along. Just give me five minutes and 32 seconds to let Rocky know I'm leaving. He and Hyvvie will be fine, I know, but he's been so nice to me--and Clive--that I owe him that courtesy.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
<gathers around with backpack, gray cloak and large walking staff>
Looking at my large staff? (okay, okay, I won't keep doing that joke, but I couldn't help it)
Well guys, I think we're ready to go. The OK Coral is fixed, even though we still don't know who owns it. But I think its time I took an exit from Legion World to clear my head, and figure out what needs to be done. Hopefully some adventure awaits us...and this little quest brings good change.
<eyes Raging Bull and nods>
Bull, you walk with Time Teller Lad while Tomahawk leads. I'll walk with Clive...I want his opinion on several matters...
Posted by Raging Bull on :
[tips hat to Time Teller Lad]
Pleased to make your acquaintance, Mr. Lad.
What do you make of this matter?

Hopefully, these matters are fit for virgin ears, Mr. Cobalt! Posted by Rody the Super-Rat on :
Was the O.K. Coral built from the Great Barrier Reef?
<cheeky chuckle>
Posted by Raging Bull on :
An update, Mr. Cobalt?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Yes indeedy! Here we are folks...
Posted by SharkLad on :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~|\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
Well here we are Sharky...
<has LMB standard-issue flashlight, shining it into the wreckage>
Funny, I seem to recall Cobie and others rebuilding this place, and yet here it is, still a collapsed rubble. Evidently they didn't build at all. But...that makes no sense? Why lie about it? Unless they somehow forgot...or thought they rebuilt and somehow were tricked? More mysteries...
<looks at Shark Lad>
Just thinking out loud, sorry Sharky. Tell me...do you smell Tomahawk's scent? Has he been back here? Has anyone?
<shines light on several empty whiskey bottles, obviously removed from the rubble and then drank>
Someone's been here, after all...
Posted by SharkLad on :
<sniff>
<sniff, sniff>
Yeah, Tomahawk's been here ... his scent ... odd mix of sweat and leather ... kinda like the YMCA ...
<shifts through the rubble>
the bottles aren't the only things that have been touched ... something is buried under here ... it looks like ...
<pulls something out from the rubble>
yeah, it's a sword ... traces of blood too ... and what's this?
<pulls something else out>
an axe ... or better said, a tomahawk ...
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
<takes a look>
Blood is old, dry for sometime. I wonder whose it is...perhaps there have been an attack--or more--prior to Cobalt's? The Election Tyrant? Or who knows, given how many Legion Worlders come and go?
I think we might have a new suspect...
<hears creak within the rubble>
Someone else is here!
Posted by Jailbait Lass on :
<blaster pulled out, as if ready to aim>
Sharky, get ready...
<kicks over pile or rubble where noise is coming from!>
HOLD IT RIGHT THERE--!! What?
<before Jailbait Lass and Shark Lad is yet another body, this one covered in dirt and blood, apparently dead if not for the grunting noise>
He's still alive, whoever he is! Lets flip him over. Great Rao! His face! Its been brutally torn apart! I-I have no idea who this is.
We need to get this John Doe to Medicus Two ASAP! He's barely hanging on...whoever he is...
