I guess it does kind of look like ray charles... if he was a cyclops.
Mr. Wheeler sighed again. "That fool doesn't listen. i said i'd meet him there in a week, and he's already plunged headlong into the town." Mr. Wheeler suddenly noticed the woman in the shadows. "You've been watching us the entire time, havn't you? As you probably know, my name is Mr. Wheeler. Who are you?"
Mr. Wheeler sighed, then LAunched himself at Zaris one last time. This time he caught zaris by the head, and threw him in the air. He was able to deliver about seven kicks to zaris's chest before he threw him into the ground, making a crater of his own. "I'll assume you want to have this out for real, then?", asked mr. wheeler in an inquisitive voice. "Why don't we call this a stalemate for the time being. You have places to be, and so do i. Meet me at Grauman's Chinese theater in hollywood. There, we can truly unleash our powers. It is a place of power, after all." OOC: Places of power are landmarks that many people flock to and "worship". There are pockets of power all over america. In Places of power, gods can go into an "Alternate dimension" of sorts. There, they can adorn their true forms without mortals even knowing they are there, and unleash their full powers against one another. Grauman's chinese theater is in Hollywood, and is arguably the most famous theater ever to be built. read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grauman's_Chinese_Theater
... i dunno. I agree that slade is friggin cool, but i think the apprentice episodes were the most awesome (the ones at the end of the first season). Robin's costume is friggin awesome, and i love the fight with slade where we ALMOST see his face.
If i ever am invisible, it's because i guess i'll probably bug people if i'm looking at a certain thread... or something... yeah...
Mr. Wheeler rebounded out of the crater, hitting zaris with an extremely powerful uppercut. He then followed up with a particularly powerful kick to the chest, sending Zaris headlong into a fountain. He landed with a large splash that made the floor all wet and squeaky. "You just don't learn, do you?", said Mr. Wheeler in an annoyed-yet-amused voice. "Then again, i suppose you can't tach an old dog new tricks. Like giving in."
Mr. Wheeler dissappeared and reappeared behind Zaris. "Cute trick," said Mr. Wheeler as he slammed into Zaris, sending him flying through one of the clothes store displays. "Do you perform at children's parties?"
Mr. Wheeler took his time getting up. It wasn't as much because he was hurt, as much as he wanted to torment Zaris. Well then,Mr. Wheeler thought, I'll take my time. I'll wait for a while to play my ace. By that time, Mr. Wheeler had noticed the large fireball hurtling through the air. From the looks of it, it had been thrown by that jackal-looking man who was standing behind it. Mr. Wheeler wondered if he should co operate with him... and then he realized how much he really wanted to kill this ******* who had wrecked his favorite mall. Mr. Wheeler kicked Zaris into the air. He followed him and tossed him in the direction of the fireball. "How's that for a taste of your own medicine?" Mr. Wheeler said to himself. He then lsmiled, amused at how cliche it sounded.
Mr. Wheeler landed with a thud on the floor. "Not bad", he said as he got up and cracked his neck. "You're not weak like the others. Let's see how long you last". Mr. wheeler charged towards his opponent, ready for whatever he threw at him.
"Ah, yes. That makes perfect sense, considering what you just caused here. Well, it' nice to meet you, and now that we've got that out of the way..." It looked as though Mr. Wheeler had suddenly dissappeared and reappeared behind Zaris. In actuality, he hadn't teleported, but he was quite fast. He delivered a kick to Zaris's spine that would have killed an ordinary man. It didn't do quite that, but it sent Zaris flying a good distance. "...I can get on with killing you."
Mr. Wheeler smiled. "I guess subtlety isn't your thing," he said with a certain tone of amusement. "You're not normal, and you definitely caused this chaos. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mr. Wheeler."
Mr. Wheeler had just gotten into the mall. It was in chaos. From the look of it, the entire mall was in a panic. There were two people who had been shot dead, and Mr. Wheeler guessed that it was the police that had shot them. One was a man and one was a woman. Mr. Wheeler also noticed that there were a whole bunch of charred corpses that looked like policemen. Mr. Wheeler had finally put the pieces together. "No mortal could have possibly done this", he said aloud to himself. That's when he noticed the young man in the trenchcoat walking calmly away from the entire scene. Either there was something seriously wrong with this kid, or... I'll trail him for a while, thought Mr. Wheeler. He wasn't sure, but that kid was probably one of them. Mr. Wheeler smiled.
Mr. Wheeler hadn't gotten two blocks away from the mall entrance when the cop cars came rushing by. They stopped just in front of the mall. At first, Mr. Wheeler thought that it was unimportant, but then his curiosity got the better of him. He walked up to to one of the cop cars, and touched the hood. After about five seconds, a policemen came up to him and bluntly told him to go away. Mr. wheeler complied. After all, he had gotten the information he had wanted. Cars were a lot like dogs to Mr. Wheeler. They didn't talk in a language that was coherent to people, but if you really payed attention, they could talk to you and you would understand. For instance, this particular car had told him that the police were called because somebody just went nuts and attacked someone else. Mr. wheeler was puzzled. [People don't randomly attack other people unless they're nuts, he thought. Something was out of place. Someone had grossly overplayed their hand...
I guess I'll sign up too. It sounds like a good idea. :)
I agree with Darkandroid. It's not really anime. That still doesn't change the fact that it was awesome. However, i think that it's probably good that they cancelled the show when they did. They would have run out of ideas eventually. After all, they did get rid of just about every bad guy in the entire show in the last season. And the series finale was just plain painful (as in it sucked). The movie wasn't that great either.
Mr. Wheeler had just about gotten to the mall entrance when his cell phone rang. "Mr. Wheeler here", he said as he answered. The voice on the other line spoke. "Oh, it's you. What do you want?" The voice on the other line told him. "ALREADY?" The voice on the other line responded again. "How many?" The voice on the other line spoke again. Mr. Wheeler cursed under his breath. "Alright. It shall be done." He was just about to hang up when the voice on the other line spoke again. "Thank you, but i should be fine." The voice spoke one more time, and hung up. Wheeler smiled as he put his phone in his pocket, despite his ambivalent feelings. Three in Los Angeles already? It had been a while since he had seen any action, and Wheeler was always willing to have some fun. On the other hand, he was just about to eat dinner. "Thats okay", he said aloud to himself in a chipper voice. "There's always food, and there always will be. I ate a big lunch anyway. And besides, work comes first." And with that, Mr. wheeler turned around and walked back into the winding maze that was downtown los angeles, ready for work.
The name says it all. What would you say is the worst english-dubbed anime out there? For me, it would have to be a tie between Naruto and One Piece.
Soldiers of the Wastelands- Dragonforce
**SPOILER ALERT** Actually, you do play as riku, but only briefly. It's in the final battle with Xemnas when Sora's being pwned by Xemnas. I still think it's about ten times more fun to play as mickey. It would still be about ten times as awesome to play as someone from Organization XIII (besides roxas), though.
ooc: Alright then, Los Angeles it is. Then i guess we can begin. good luck! Mr. Wheeler was currently walking down the streets of downtown LA. At this point, he had to admit that Mr. World was right. LA was the perfect place for him. He felt about thirty years younger here. He had a constant source of power. The beautiful automobiles and endless highways assured him of that. On top of that, there was always somewhere to go. The downtown area was always his favorite haunt. Mr. Wheeler had decided he was hungry. The sun was just setting, so he would have to find someplace soon, or places owuld start to get crowded. He decided to go to his favorite mall. they always had quick but good places to eat. Who knows, he thought, I might even run into someone interesting. And so, Mr. Wheeler started down the street toward hs favorite mall.
