Crossroads, Another Story, Ep.1 Noroko vs. Shar-Makai

Okay, before I start, I just have to say that I know Xempocasez IRL (And if you dont believe me, you can ask him yourself), and that he is allowing me to make a story thats linked to his in its own way.

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

"... Who am I...? ... What am I...? ... and what are these memories of another exsistance...?" These thoughts had been lingering in Noroko's mind for quite some time now. Although not sure what the 'other' existence was, she seems to remember that the prision, which was her sanctuary, was not the only existence. When in a coma-like stasis, Noroko's emotions and conscience seperate within herself. Noroko always spent her time debating amongst herself (and for some reason, the aspects and the conscience of herself look human, rather than a faceless ghost) about stuff like who she was, what happened to her, and would seeing the 'other world' be a risk worth taking... At this moment, Noroko's Joy, Sorrow, and Hatred are having another debate about the 'other world' (sorry if that's getting repetative).

Joy: ... Oh, come on guys! Dont you think it'd be fun? It's much better than staying here for the rest of forever!

Sorrow: It's not a risk worth taking. What if I get my feelings hurt?

Hatred: Grrrr..... I'm sick of this! I hate this place! Not that I'm saying the other world would be better! Damnit, damnit, DAMNIT!

Sorrow: Please, calm down!

Joy: Well you know what? We're not going to do much sitting out here forever and ever. I want to meet others and see places. Don't you guys?

Sorrow: What if someone doesn't like us? What will we do then?

The Sorrow aspect of Noroko began to cry. The Hatred aspect clentched her fist and began to shake it at the Joy aspect.

Hatred: What if none of it is worth meeting OR seeing?!

Joy: Jeez, calm down.

The Joy aspect laughed nervously.

Their debate went on until the Dread aspect came running in, looking shocked as usual, but she was also short of breath. The Joy aspect decided to be polite and ask...

Joy: What ever seems to be the problem?

Dread: *pant* *pant* Something's coming, we have to become one, NOW!

Joy: Oh, dont be silly! This world is secluded! There is nothing here that can harm us!

???: That's where you're wrong...

The other aspects stopped what they were doing all at once. Noroko's conscience (not an aspect) slowly appeared amongst the others.

Conscience: She is right, something... somehow... is entering our sanctuary. We must do all we can to stop it. Conflict will be involved. We must take action.

Dread: B-b-but how do we do that?

The Dread aspect felt frightened.

Conscience: The only thing we can do is awaken and attempt to stop this threat. We will have to temporarily become one.

The aspects nodded in agreement...
... With her emotions and thoughts as one, Noroko awakened and saw what was going on. What appeared to be a strange hole in the wall led to another place. Soon, worms with bony teeth were starting to pour in from the hole. Some of the worms grew in size. Noroko knew what had to be done.

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

I've always wanted to do a story about some wierd monster (well, in this case a ghost) that seems inherently evil, but is more confused and crazy and uses seemingly evil methods to get the job done. Anyway, might as well list the pros and cons while I'm at it.

Pros: Has many ways of moving around the battlefield and a fatal move that requires a full energy gauge and less than 1/10th your max life to work. And, well, I guess the doll form is also a pro

Cons: Not too many hard hitting attacks (doll form does decent damage, though), very few rave possibilities, the doll form can't block, and the fatal move is easy to evade and can be countered (I hardly use the fatal move, anyway)

Review: Although she's not a big damage dealer or raver, Noroko's freedom of movement gives her the cunning edge she needs. It also means you can try to be crafty about how you want to fight.

Oh yeah, I'm only doing alot of damage in this vid because I'm outnumbered. Almost forgot to mention that.

you really like the ceiling move dont you onryou236

[Onryou236]

Yup. Even though I've gotten MUCH better than I was when I made this video (see latest video for an example), I used it alot. I still use it alot, but I found that the other specials can be used alot too (despite that spraying blood leaves you open if they guard). I've also gotten better with normal melee attacks as well. I'd explain more, but I don't want to post alot of replys. >.>

[egdeltur666]

so... the same guy that did noroko also did the worm monster and the prison? Then he is officicially my second favorite Mugen developer, right behind Lord Sinistro (because of Vertigo and Ultraman of course).

By the way, kudos on the Vs. screen music. SH2 was always my favorite, but I don't remember hearing that track (what was it called, Terror in the fog or something?) in the game. Just curious, do you know where it came from originally?

[Onryou236]

To be honest, I don't know which part (if any) in SH2 that the music came from (I still haven't got all of endings yet). You hear a bit of it in one of the making of SH2 videos (I forget which part). Maybe that's where it came from? I don't know.

where can i possibly get this game??

[Onryou236]

I'll tell you when I get the chance. My brother found the site, but he's asleep right now, and sometimes he forgets to show me the link. All I have to say is that you're not the first one that's asked me where to get it. And my bro's been kinda lazy about showing me the link. >.>

[SuperEvilSoup]
