WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD - Mod Plot [Network Post | 1]
[They get a transmission from the outpost orbiting the planet where new displacees appear, the battered remains of the planet Phelolu. It's a priority distress call, so the message is received by every Legionnaire and all major posts on Legion World.]
[The commanding officer of the response team is a Carggite, Dr. Trez. All three of her grey-haired selves look shaken. Behind her, the main viewscreen of the outpost is cracked and consoles are sparking. The outpost has clearly come under heavy attack.]
Mayday mayday, this is Legion Outpost Phelolu, we are under attack by a 10X10 threat! I repeat, it is a 10X10 threat. Do not send a response team. I repeat: do not send a response team! We'll leave monitoring equipment on for surveillance but all personnel is evacuating the outpost.
Over!
[And that is the only message they get. She quickly reforms into one self, and leaves the console, helping a crew member that's fallen. The entire command deck shakes once. Then again. Fortunately, all members of the team escape the command deck and the hatch to the threshold room closes.]
[By the time the hull rips open, it's plenty of time for them to have escaped through a threshold gate. It's hard to see what causes the breach. There is only a flash of silver and all of a sudden a chunk of it is gone. More of it gets ripped away, and there's a brief flash of something blue and sparkling. With another flash of silver, the whole deck explodes and the camera view is lost. The monitoring system shifts to an external camera as a default so that they can see the field of wreckage outside. There is only a small, barely functioning hunk of the outpost left. The rest is a debris field that's obscuring the view of the planet. Ice dust from the vaporization systems creates a huge cloud that the barely functioning lights reflect off in the void.]
[That's when they see it looming out through the debris field. It's an incomprehensible being, a force of nature, and each sentient's mind must try to make what sense of it that it can by assigning it some kind of image. To many humanoids, what they see is the face of an impossibly huge man.]
[Despite the fact that it should be impossible for any sound to vibrate through the void, they can hear him speak, his voice thundering impossibly loud. Everyone who hears it hears it in their native language, two simple words that spell out the doom of civilizations:]
"GALACTUS HUNGERS!"
[Silver and sparkling blue streak by again and they see now what the cause of the streaks are. One is a man that looks like he's made of liquid silver, riding a silver surfboard. The other is a ethereal and graceful-looking alien with a staff, who looks like she's made out of stardust. As they attack the last of the outpost with a wave of cosmic power, the feed cuts out.]

no subject
Well that's the understatement of the day. Got any pretty big ideas yet?
no subject
[ Because he can comprehend the scale and it's hitting him in a way that he hadn't been expecting and the only thought that was going through his mind was how much he wishes his father was here but he can't rely on other people and how in the world were they going to fight this? ]
no subject
[ Her eyes narrow. ] No, I think you're going to get back to me now. Where are you?
no subject
[ He says it without thinking, probably because he's too distracted to think about anything else. ]
[action]
[ With the help of the flight ring, she alights on the breeze. ] Gohan! [ She calls searchingly. ]
[action]
He never really thought he'd be using this place to try and sort his thoughts after a cosmic being threatening to eat planets came into existence. ]
I'm here... [ He called out, although there wasn't a lot of energy in his voice. He was sitting down on the ground in a lotus position, attempting to meditating. But if his grit teeth and tense muscles were anything to go by, it wasn't working. ] Just... trying to calm down. I didn't exactly... react well to Galactus...
[action]
[ She sat with her legs splayed out in front of her, leaning back on arms outstretched behind her. ]
Yeah, I don't think anyone did. [ She agreed, shaking her head. ] He's... [ She really didn't have any words to describe Galactus. He was almost incomprehensible to Videl. ]
But we'll stop him! [ She offered with confidence, lifting one hand to gently slug Gohan in the shoulder. ] You beat Cell, after all. Between us and the rest of the Legion, Galactus'll wish he'd stayed in his home universe chomping on their worlds.
[action]
... I don't know if Cell is even comparable to this... [ He muttered, gulping down the lump in his throat. ] Even Majin Buu, for as powerful as he was, was still our size... Galactus though, how do we even attack something like that?
[action]
Besides, big opponents are way easier to deal with than small ones. [ She makes something of a smirk at this, as size difference plays a significant role in her fighting style. ] Their size makes them a lot slower than us. And we're so small compared to Galactus that he might not notice us at all. We'd be like flies to him-- smaller than flies!
[action]
[ Gohan didn't like size differences. His only real experience with something considerably larger than him was Hirudegarn, and even if he managed to find out it's weakness, it still took his dad to end that threat. ]
[action]
[action]
[ He was trying to be optimistic, he really was. But the whole situation just reminded him of... Namek, actually. When he first sensed Frieza, and realized the overwhelming odds stacked against them. ]
