Gundam Seed Destiny Force Blast Head Figure GUNDAMHEAD Series

Fido’s slice and dice made for a nasty fight

Opening scene: A city bus teeters on the edge of a skyscraper.

Smoke is everywhere. So are helicopters. There are people standing on this hole in the skyscraper. Well, they aren't standing on the hole. It's like you can see the floor of the skyscraper but the side is open. Not open like you open a window, but open like it was blown open by something, which would be the bus.  

The camera zooms big-time into the bus where you see the driver and he's all mangled and gross. Then the camera backs up all crazily so you can see the people in the bus. There's a woman who's hysterical and she has all kinds of breasts. There's a foreign guy who's probably all religious so he's praying to something or whatever. There's a fat guy in a Hawaiian shirt and he's probably just a party animal. There's a slick executive guy and you know he's horrible because of the cell phone and sunglasses. There's another woman and she has breasts too, but she's brunette.

Zoom into a guy's face. His eyes are all squinty so you know he's serious and ready to do something crazy.

"There's no way you're going in there, Jack Blunt," says a voice on the guy's headset.

Jack flicks the cigarette out of his mouth and pulls out another cigarette from his pocket and lights it and smokes it. 

"Or what?" he says, awesomely.

"Damn it, Jack," The Chief says, real flustered-like. "You're the best man I have on the force. You've been with me for a decade and you helped me beat my gambling addiction after my wife left me. You came from the streets but you listen to ragtime, so that's pretty different. I can't let you go in there."

"Sorry, Chief," Jack says. "No dice."

Jack jumps off the helicopter and right onto the building-hole-thing. Jack sees that there are still all these people on the bus, so he pulls open the rear emergency exit and tells people to run off the bus.

They start running and everything gets real slow-motion, which the fellas will appreciate when the ladies I mentioned earlier run by. The fat guy stops and looks at Jack and says, "Next time, I'm using the subway AND eating at Subway." 

Jack thinks that everyone is off the bus, but then  he hears this "Waa waa waa waa" sound.

Zoom in real fast: baby carrier at the front of the bus.

Jack spits out his cigarette and runs to the front of the bus, grabs the carrier, and starts running back towards the exit. Everything looks all bumpy and crumbly. But just as he gets halfway up the bus, the weight of the bus shifts suddenly and the bus starts to fall. Jack runs on the bus aisle like it's a treadmill until the bus falls and Jack has to jump out the back of the exit and onto the building.

He thinks he's safe because he lets out this big "Whew" sound, but then he looks down to check on the baby. It turns out that it isn't a baby in the carrier, but a lit bundle of like forty sticks of dynamite and a tape recorder playing baby sounds.

Jack throws the entire carrier downward. The carrier lands on the falling bus and explodes, which sends the bus rocketing downward to the city street, where it lands on another bus that also blows up. The look on Jack's face says: "Son of a bitch--that is not what I wanted to happen."

Screen goes black.

Force Blast...and here's why.

I liked this power even before it was changed - the ability to simply roll a d6 to knock adjacent characters away from you was beyond appealing, and made positioning a premier strategy.
