Black Jack

21 bullets. More than enough to kill anything that moves. Use more anyway.

0 · 524 views · located in Majestic HQ

a character in “Fusion Fantasy Neo”, originally authored by Alexander von Koopa, as played by RolePlayGateway

Description

Theme – The Hammer Falls

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Race: Human

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Physical Description: Black Jack wears a large overcoat and hat to obscure any of his features, but lacks a right arm… unless he’s smoking, in which case purple smoke comes out from where his arm would be.

Personality: Black Jack practices the policy of keeping a stiff upper lip, keeping calm and carrying on, and all that other British philosophy even as he dutifully follows orders.

History: Squad leader of most of Majestic’s ground forces, Black Jack lost his arm when Dr. Y cut it off trying to get information on Majestic. He now bears a bitter grudge and eagerly awaits the day when he can return the favor.

Equipment: Black Jack has several spy gadgets hidden in his coat, but fights primarily with a modified tommy gun (the Dead Man's Hand) and cigarette. The cigarette lets out a strange purple smoke that acts as Black Jack’s right arm and serves as ammo for the tommy gun. This ammo is capable of going straight through solid objects without leaving any holes, but without the cigarette the gun cannot fire.

Abilities: Aside from his missing arm and the gas used to replace it, Black Jack has no special abilities.

Other: There’s more to Black Jack’s story that I’m not telling. A lot more, but that would spoil pretty much everything about his character (and some of Dr. Y’s). Tee hee.

Black Jack put a comforting hand on Khorshid's shoulder. Strangely enough, she feels a slight pricking sensation when he touches her.

"There, there," said Black Jack. "Those men are gone now. They can't hurt you any more. You're safe now."

The airship is being serviced well, but it's also being repainted with sigils and flags of Coronach.

"?!" This pricking feeling startled Khorshid, who stumbled away from Black Jack. "That...That hurt!"

Black Jack is holding a syringe filled with blood glowing green.

"My apologies," said Black Jack. "I'm afraid I haven't been entirely truthful to you."

A sour, yet unsurprised look flashes across Ripsaw's face upon noticing this, before he promptly tries to tackle Black Jack.

Black Jack tosses the syringe into the air before stepping to the side of Ripsaw's tackle, pulling out a cigarette, and lighting it, generating his second arm.

"Are you quite sure you want to deal with me?" asked Black Jack.

Many footsteps were heard down the halls. Soon, behind Khorshid came several of Majestic's troops. They come armed with concussive rifles and magic-disabling phasers.

"Stay right where you are, scorpionoid!" "Backup's here, sir!" "Don't try anything funny, robot!"

Their armor looked familiar to Khorshid...much like the armor that the terrorists she faced long ago wore!

"Now, we can do this one of two ways," said Black Jack. "The easy way or the hard way. You don't want the hard way, but it's still your decision."

"I don't know about the girl, but if you knew who I was, you prrrobably wouldn't be surrrprrrised by my anssswer," snarled Ripsaw in response.

Getting back up, Ripsaw looks like he's about to take a swipe at Black Jack again - but instead promptly turns around and unfolds his railgun, proceeding to fire a shot into the crowd of soldiers.

Some of the guards dive out of the way while the rest are blown backwards. Black Jack opens fire on Ripsaw, and due to the smog-like nature of his shots, many of the blasts (should they hit) phase right through Ripsaw's metallic outer shell.

"Designation Ripsaw," said Black Jack, still calm despite the situation. "Based on the old SCRAPMETAL project, capable of adapting to situations in the field as they happen, and carrying and assimilating multiple varieties of weaponry. Unique self-aware AI created to aid processing of events and help evolve into a superweapon. Known associate of Plantium, leader of the Metal Legion. We are well aware of who you are. We are not impressed."

Half of the guards knocked down lift themselves off the floor, trying to take aim at Ripsaw and Khorshid.

"N...NO!!"

In a panic, Khorshid's eyes flashed a bright green as her pincers fired Gamma Waves at these guards, blasting them into the wall as well (would have been worse if not for the armor). With them down, Khorshid sprinted through the halls, making her way back to the docking bay.

Also something that made it better was the strange, glowing green light that slowly illuminated the room, absorbing most of Khorshid's radiation. There was still force behind the blasts, to be sure (otherwise how could the troops have been knocked into a wall?), but it was drastically reduced in power and lethality from what a burst of radiation would actually do to a person.

"Don't just stand there!" shouted Black Jack to the troops. "Get up and go after her!"

The troops quickly scramble after Khorshid.

In the docking bay, the Ciellos Sky Pirates' airship, the M.S.S. Hyperion, was ready to take off to scout out Coronach. The hatch to the outside was fully open as the ship lifted out. Unfortunately (for them), Khorshid happened to dash in the bay at this time. She saw the hatch above, and saw an opportunity to escape.

"There...gotta leap out there!"

Scrambling up the wall, using her pincers and tail stinger as climbing hooks, she got closer and closer to the hatch as the Hyperion was halfway through it. As she did, one of the Hyperion's deckhands took notice to her.

"(!) H-Hey! I think we got a bogey leaving through the hatch!" he cried out.

"What - ?!?" Fervolo shouted from within the cockpit. "Rrrgh!! And we just got preparations completed! Why didn't the radar pick up on this?!"

One of the co-pilots with Fervolo checked the radar system - its screen is glitching like crazy. "Uh...it looks like there's radiation interference, sir. It's screwing up the display!"

"{facepalm} I should have known the artillery budget was a tad much..." Fervolo grumbled. "{sigh} No matter. Haven's on full alert for those like her. At best, she'll be detained...or killed. Whichever happens."

The Coronach flags and stuff that were previously on the M.S.S. Hyperion have been taken off, by the way. Meanwhile, the guards who came to back up Black Jack arrive at the hangar, opening fire on Khorshid.

Back with Black Jack and Ripsaw, the latter ends up catching a lot of the brunt from the attack due to his size and is sent stumbling backwards - he tries to use his claws as a makeshift shield against the bullets, but that ends up failing due to obvious reasons. As this goes on, a few of the special rounds conveniently end up disrupting the targeting module for Ripsaw's railgun as they pass through him, effectively disabling the gun.

"You've cerrrtainly done your homeworrrk," spat Ripsaw, looking quite miffed while trying to hold his ground. "But then again I can't say I'm surrrprrrised, ssseeing how clearrrly dug-in you people arrre."

Ripsaw's metallic tail has started to secretly extend by a great length during this time, meanwhile; suddenly lashing out at a breakneck speed towards Black Jack in an effort to knock the man into a nearby wall.

Black Jack may be a highly trained operative, but he's still only human - lack of proper warning, lack of agility to dive out of the way, and the fact that he was distracted by Khorshid's escape mean that the tail slams into Black Jack, sending him sailing into the nearest wall, cigarette still in his mouth.

"You have no idea," said Black Jack.

"Not right now, perrrhaps, but there's always later," retorted Ripsaw, a thought occurring to him. "Ssspeaking of 'later..'"

Ripsaw utilizes this moment of unrestricted movement to activate his jet boosters; the exhaust ports in his back burning with a bright blue flame as he quickly dashes past Black Jack and goes barreling down into the halls, likely fleeing back towards the docking bay as well.

Hopping up onto the lip of the hatch, Khorshid aimed her pincers at the shooting guards, firing another Gamma Wave into them, blasting them away as she climbed over and out...

The deckhands on the Hyperion readied a cannon as the ship lifted out of the hatch.

Black Jack quickly gets up, dusting himself off with his smoky hand before heading after Ripsaw, handing off the syringe with Khorshid's blood to a nearby scientist without breaking stride.

---

Ripsaw takes a bit longer to get to the docking bay, since Khorshid had both a head start and a speed advantage, but he soon enough arrives - but it won't take much longer for Black Jack to catch up.
