- Socrates to FlamingoMask

Plant Monster Socrates (石膏怪人ソクラテス Plant Monster Socrates) is a plant-based assassin kaijin and a RP character used by Gallibon the Destroyer.

Personality
Elegant, pragmatic and surprisingly sophisticated; Socrates maybe a ruthless assassin kaijin, but he is still very polite and highly intelligent. Quick to thinking and preferring to plan things out in a more complex way; Socrates is one of the smarter members of the assassin kaijins the Mecha Gang send out. However, he acknowledges that he is very deadly, does not like to slouch and his biggest flaw is that he tends to heavily overestimate himself and underestimate his foes; as he believes he is too smart for them.

Debut: Garden of Flames
FlamingoMask appeared in New York to assist the cowboy Shadowblood known as Rash to combat against Plant Monster Socrates and his group of Mecha-Mobsters. FlamingoMask met up with Rash and introduced himself to him. Rash was a bit baffled, as he wasn't aware that their were more "Shadowfolk" on the planet other than him. Plant Monster Socrates then ordered his Mecha-Mobsters to attack FlamingoMask and Rash; the Mecha-Mobsters then got out flamethrowers and torched at the two Shadowbloods. Rash shot a blast of golden electricity from his hands, causing a loud, authentic thunder-on-ground sound as the robots are suddenly completely disabled. Many Mecha-Mobsters were taken down in the process.

More Mecha-Mobsters rushed in; to which Rash immediately shot more blasts of electricity at them, disabling them again. Rash then motioned his hands, as the fallen robots immediately explode. FlamingoMask crouched down, blasting away more Mecha-Mobsters with light beam, helping out Rash. Then from out of nowhere, a monstrous shark demon suddenly entered the vicinity, roaring and waving his cleaver like a berserker. Hammerhead charged at Rash, lunging and snapping; Rash avoided the assaults, backflipping and moving around with his speed; Rash told FlamingoMask that he would handle the shark demon while he told FlamingoMask to take care of Socrates.

FlamingoMask performed a flying kick against Socrates, however Socrates grabbed FlamingoMask by the legs with his tendrils and threw him across a building wall. Socrates then raised out a staff, blasting gunfire from it against FlamingoMask, to which FlamingoMask rolled out of the way from. FlamingoMask got back up and hurled a Light Orb against Socrates, causing some sparks coming off of Socrates as he staggers back. Socrates sprayed a stream of mist from his mouth, spraying it across some vehicles, melting them instantly; FlamingoMask then generated a light shield to block the mist.

Socrates had more tricks up his sleeve however and then sent out a few of his tendrils against FlamingoMask, lashing at him like whips, lashing FlamingoMask in the face. Socrates followed this up by blasting fireballs from his mouth against FlamingoMask; causing FlamingoMask to fly back aways. Socrates then used his tendrils vines to constrict on FlamingoMask's limbs causing FlamingoMask great pain; FlamingoMask struggled to break free from Socrates's grasp. FlamingoMask managed to get his left arm freed though and then punched at one of Socrates's tendrils. FlamingoMask then followed up on this by blasting a light beam at Socrate's mouth, causing Socrates to fly backwards.

FlamingoMask then threw three Light Orbs around Socrates's area, creating a few explosions around him. As Socrates rose back up, Socrates then hurled his tendrils against him, thwacking them against him like hard whips; Socrates bombarded his tendrils against FlamingoMask, lashing out on him repeatedly and violently. Eventually, Socrates's lashing became too much for FlamingoMask; as FlamingoMask then got out his Wrecking Flail and then swung it against the tendrils, slicing them through. Socrates reeled his tendrils back and screeched, blasting seed bombs against FlamingoMask. FlamingoMask flew up away from the seed bombs; the seed bombs then exploded, creating some explosions behind him.

FlamingoMask then bashed at Socrates, punching and kicking against him repeatedly before then finishing him off by using his Flamingo Kick; sending Socrates flying aways and crash-landing elsewhere, defeating him.
