[DeathStar] .....I don't like this.  Dominator...., what do you think?
[Blackjack] They seem to be avoiding us...
* DK_Ariel looks over to Garland
[Seraphna`] i need... i need to talk to him....
* Garland glances at Ariel
[DK_Ariel] Want me to take Sera off your hands?
[Dominator] Well, DS... It could be a trap, set up by CorSec... Would the real X take pains to avoid us?
[Seraphna`] i need to know, he must know...
[Blackjack] I second what Dominator says... Even if they are the real, we have Zero to worry about...
[DeathStar] They aren't working for CorSec. And if X had something imporant to protect from Mavericks or CorSec, yes, he would.
[Garland] Ok.
[Dominator] What do you mean?
[DeathStar] I'm going.  Those who want to follow, do so.  Those who don't, follow Dom back to the Mountain.  G'luck

[Garland] Ok, Seraphna.
[Seraphna`] i could....
* Cold-Snap sits on the rubble and stares at his stump. 1"I'll need a new limb, but at least I can close this. . ."
