<Snipe> Time Chart: July 14th, 2223
*** Garland is now known as Sardis
<Snipe> Location: Aquarius
* Snipe hammerblows Colephantus into the training room wall.
* Sardis watches the battle from the side.
* Colephantus impacts with the wall and then lands on the ground quite beaten up.
<Colephantus> How.....do......you......do.....that....
<Dias> He's dense that's why.
* Colephantus slowly gets to his feet and looks at Snipe.
*** Katrina` has joined #taw
<Snipe> Are you okay?
* Sardis works on his compad, checking off security details while watching.
* Colephantus nods. "I've been better but yeah i'm good."
<Snipe> I think we're done for today. 6He rotates his arm a few times.
* Colephantus walks closer to him.
<Colephantus> You still haven't taught me....just kicked my ass with it...
<Snipe> Well, there's two ways of teaching something. If you recall, a month ago I could flip you into the ground easily. Now, if I go to do that move, you know what I'm doing.
* Colephantus nods. "Yes but I don't know how to do it myself..." "Am I not ready for it?"
<Dias> If you can't learn how to copy someones moves, then how can you find a weakness in it?
* Katrina` taps her comm, beeping everyone in the training room
<Katrina`> You might want to report to the Bridge.
* Colephantus ponders.
* Dias stands up stretching
* Sardis hops to his feet and heads out of the training room, at that.
<Dias> Wonder what the young foxtress wants with us toiday.
* Colephantus then walks toward the elevator.
<Colephantus> Foxtress?
* Snipe walks along, grabbing his glasses from a rack and putting them on.
<Colephantus> Odd use of the word fox....
* Dias hops after Snipe
* Colephantus pushes the button for the elevator and waits on its decent.
<Colephantus> NRP: Descent....right?
<Dias> NRP: Right
* Dias turns his head back to Cole
* Colephantus rubs his hand through his long white hair feeling for any bumps on his head.
* Snipe stands at the elevator with the others.
<Dias> See...a good way to beat someone is to learn their moves and study them.
* Sardis stands on teh elevator, waitng for them.
* Snipe steps onto the elevator.
* Dias hops onto it
* Colephantus steps onto the elevator.
<Colephantus> But its hard to study someone when you can barely make out where their going.
<Snipe> Sorta..crowded in here...
* Colephantus glances. "Yeaah...."
<Snipe> Can someone hit the Bridge button? I can't reach it.
<Dias> ...Someones touching my crotch.
* Sardis hits the button.
<Snipe> Cole, stop touching Dias' crotch.
<Dias> NRP: Dias: AHH MY NUTS!
<Colephantus> ......My hands are right here.
* Dias looks down
<Snipe> ...well, it isn't me.
* Colephantus lifts them up to show that they are not on anyone's crotch.
<Colephantus> It's probably himself.
<Dias> Hey those are my hands.
<Snipe> I suddenly want off this elevator.
* Colephantus nods. "Thought so...."
<Snipe> *Sniff* Hey, who passed gas? Come on...
* Dias nods his head at Sardis
<Colephantus> I don't even think I can pass gas....
* Colephantus scratches his nose. "Man you guys stink."
* Snipe tries to cover his nose.
<Sardis> You're both extremely sweaty. *glances at the two*
<Snipe> Are you saying I stink?
<Colephantus> I coulda swore that this elevator didn't take this long....
<Dias> Well if fatso here wasn't on...*motions to Snipe*
<Snipe> "Fatso"? I'm in better shape than most Tsivrixshs!
<Sardis> Yes, you stick.
<Sardis> *stink
<Dias> How do you tell if a Tsiv is out of shape?
<Snipe> Oh, oh don't make me turn around...if..if I can..6Struggles.
<Colephantus> Not now! I can't...breath!
* Colephantus trys to push Snipe off of him.
<Snipe> 6* The elevator dings on the wrong floor and a NPC stares at them all crammed together. He pauses, then casually hits the close door button, sending them on their way.
* Sardis grimaces, wanting off of the elevator.
<Snipe> Someone is standing on my foot.
<Colephantus> Your standign on me!
* Dias lifts one of his legs up
<Dias> Not my leg.
<Snipe> You're a reploid!
<Colephantus> So?
<Snipe> Lift that other leg, pal.
* Colephantus Sniffs.
* Dias drops his one leg, nailing Snipe in the process and lifts his other leg, hitting Sardis with it
<Colephantus> Not again? Come'on hold it in!
<Snipe> Ow!
* Sardis catches the leg, glancing at Dias.
* Katrina` eyes them all as the elevator doors open on the bridge. She just stares at them in disbelief.
<Dias> No I won't make out with you Sardis!
* Colephantus laughs.
* Sardis pushes his way out, getting as far as he can from the three.
* Snipe falls out, rolling away.
* Colephantus walks out and glances down at Snipe.
<Colephantus> You ok?
* Snipe stands, dusting himself off.
<Snipe> Yes.
* Dias falls out and on his back, landing next to Sanipe
<Dias> NRP: snipe
<Colephantus> .oO( I wonder if they know that Reploids can fart? Hehe)
<Snipe> Now, why did you call us, Katrina? We were male bonding.
<Colephantus> Bonding.....I thought you were kicking my ass?
<Dias> Well atleast the ones of us that could be considered males.
<Katrina`> Oh...kay. The scanners were detecting some unusual anamolies and spikes.
<Sardis> Like what?
* Dias stands up
* Snipe sits down in the Captain's chair.
<Katrina`> I'm not sure. It's nothing we've ever seen before.
* Colephantus leans against the wall beside the elevator.
<Snipe> Well, lets go check it out. Ensign 2, head for the area of the spikes.
<Dias> What about radiation levels?
<Katrina`> No radiation levels.
<Sardis> NRP: It's ze microfilm!
<Snipe> 6* The Aquarius moves through space, heading toward the area of the distortions.
<Dias> Can we send the rookie into it>?
<Colephantus> Why me?
<Snipe> ....Where's the fun in that?
<Dias> Then...how bout we send Kat in there?
<Katrina`> We've arrived at the area of the distortions. However, nothing is...out there. 6Indeed, the viewscreen shows absolutely nothing in this area of space.
<Dias> So it's a colorless anamolie.
<Dias> Did you try different scans?
<Snipe> Hm, should we hold or keep flying towards it. Maybe they're cloaked.
<Katrina`> We're not getting anything.
<Dias> Thermal?
<Katrina`> Nothing.
<Colephantus> Infared?
* Katrina` gives them both a look saying she knows how to do her job.
<Dias> How bout the Gay-dar? Is it detecting anything?
* Colephantus smirks at Kat..."Just mimiking doofus over here.."
* Sardis glances to Kat.
<Sardis> What do you suggest?
<Snipe> Well, I don't see anything here...so, I say we just keep flying and be on our way.
<Dias> Just mimicking dufus over here...*mocks Cole*
<Katrina`> I really don't know. I mean, we picked up something here, now there's nothing. Maybe it was a glitch in the system.
* Colephantus shakes his head.
<Colephantus> 4 year old....
<Sardis> Hm.
<Colephantus> Maybe they just flew away.
<Snipe> 6* The Aquarius continues to fly through the area.
<Dias> I wonder if we can get pizza delivered out here.
<Snipe> ....
<Snipe> Do you ever shut up, Dias?
<Colephantus> I doubt it.
<Dias> But I'm hungry.
<Snipe> Well, I don't see the big--- 6As he goes to stand up, suddenly the entire ship rocks and the lights go off for a moment, before flickering back on.
<Snipe> ...
<Colephantus> I would think that wasn't good....
* Katrina` looks up for her console
<Katrina`> We just passed through some unknown materials. The computer is working on identifying it.
<Snipe> Creepy.
<Dias> Let's go through the mystery stuff...*mocks Snipe*
<Snipe> Shut up. It's not like anything bad is goin--- 6Alarms go off. "To happen."
* Colephantus throws a lone data pad at Dias. "SHut up you!"
* Sardis walks over to the console next to Kat, trying to look smart and reading along with her.
<Dias> *gets cracked in the head by the data pad* GAH!
* Katrina` looks up from the console, then at the alarm page.
<Katrina`> It seems there's a fight in the Hanger.
* Colephantus glances to the elevator.
<Dias> Why you little!!! *leaps onto Cole knocking him over*
* Colephantus gets tackled. "Gah damnit get off!"
<Snipe> A fight...in the hanger.
<Snipe> Come on, Sardis.
<Dias> A fight?! *head perks up*
* Snipe walks over and steps into the elevator.
* Dias hops off of Cole and into the elevator
* Sardis nods, clicking off the saftey to his gun and follows.
* Colephantus stands up and glances at the elevator.
<Colephantus> Not again.....
<Snipe> Now remember, security is Sardis' detail, Dias.
<Colephantus> Is there any of way of getting there?
<Snipe> Wait for the next elevator. *he taps the button, waving as the doors begin to close*
* Colephantus sighs.
* Colephantus glances at Kat.
* Katrina` looks concerned.
<Dias> But I wanna fight...
<Snipe> Sardis. Wears. Security. Chief. Badge.
<Dias> But...
<Colephantus> ....
<Snipe> Oh, come on. How bad could it be. 6The doors open to the hanger where 100 people are punching each others lights out*
<Snipe> ...
* Colephantus pushes the button and waits for the elevator.
* Colephantus glances at Kat again. "Coming? Or are you staying here?"
* Sardis blinks.
<Katrina`> I'll stay here and work on what happened.
* Snipe watches the fighting as the doors shut and the elevator goes back up to Cole.
<Snipe> ...wait, did he just call us back up?
<Colephantus> NRP: LOl.
<Dias> But...I want to fight.
* Sardis pulls out his com: Security alert, top priority--Hanger.
* Snipe eyes Cole as the bridge doors open.
* Colephantus arches an eyeball.
<Colephantus> You mean...
* Colephantus gets into the elevator.
<Dias> GAH!!
<Colephantus> I'm not waiting anymore.
<Dias> My foot!
* Snipe hits the button on the elevator for the hanger, crushed again
* Colephantus moves his leg to the right.
* Sardis stares at Cole.
* Colephantus glances at Sardis then moves his leg to the left.
* Snipe is quiet a moment, then begins to hum an annoying tune that gets stuck in your head the moment you hear it.
<Dias> Gah my foot again!
<Snipe> This is the song that never eeeends.
<Dias> It goes on and on again!
<Sardis> ...
<Snipe> 6* The doors open to the hanger once more. The security team is down there --- but there sure seems to be more security than what Sardis has on duty. Now it's like 150 people in there fighting.
* Colephantus steps off the elevator in disbelief.
* Snipe eyes the fighting as the doors open, squeezing out.
* Dias pops out next to Snipe
* Sardis looks at the fight...
<Dias> When did we ever have this many people on board?
* Snipe watches Ensign 34 run by, being chased by Ensign 34.
<Sardis> Something's not right.
<Sardis> I don't have this many people on duty.
<Snipe> I don't remember this many ensigns being on hanger duty, either.
* Colephantus looks from person to person.
<Colephantus> Hey those two are the same! *points to two ensign 18s)
<Colephantus> *
<Snipe> Wow, twins are popular this year.
<Dias> ...Do you think theres a twin of Ensign Vavoom? The one with the huge knockers?
<Colephantus> ......
<Sardis> ... *seems to be wondering who to shoot.
* Colephantus glances from person to perosn.
<Snipe> Maybe we should nerve gas them all...
<Colephantus> Gah I'm so confused...
<Dias> Nerve gas might hurt them.
<Sardis> If everyone here is copied...
* Sardis glances to Snipe.
* Snipe glances at Sardis
<Snipe> Hey, I'm the original.
<Sardis> You were with us the whole time.
* Colephantus scratches his head.
<Sardis> But that easily could mean there are copies of us about.
<Snipe> That's not a good feeling.
<Dias> ...Two of him?! *points at Snipe*
* Snipe watches Ensign 67 hop up and down on Ensign 67's head.
<Colephantus> And you.
* Colephantus picks up and wrench and lobs it into the crowd.
<Dias> Too bad Eve isn't here...
* Sardis looks to Colephantus.
<Sardis> Are you trying to get their attention?
<Snipe> Alright, this entire ship is in chaos. We need to--- 6Suddenly, red alert goes off and Snipe's voice comes over the air. 1"The Aquarius is being locked down and the command staff is locking down all other commands."
* Colephantus shrugs. "Better than standing here like idiots."
<Colephantus> .....
* Sardis glances to Snipe. "..."
<Snipe> Oh dammit to hell
<Dias> ...Hey that was you.
<Snipe> That was not ME, stupid.
<Colephantus> Ummmm should we....wait isn't Kat alone on the bridge?
<Snipe> Not anymore.
* Snipe tries to get the elevator to move, but finds it locked out.
* Colephantus glances around.
<Sardis> I'm at a loss.
<Sardis> Dias. Fight.
* Dias looks at Sardis
* Colephantus rubs his hand through his hair.
<Dias> ...Nah...
<Snipe> Now he doesn't want to fight.
<Colephantus> How do we get to the bridge?
<Colephantus> Climb?
<Snipe> Not my favorite idea in the world, but I guess it's our only choice.
* Snipe examines the roof of the elevator, then begins to open the hatch.
<Colephantus> Should I go? I can make indentions with my Katars...
* Sardis looks between them.
* Sardis pulls out his security card and pushes it into the slot.
<Snipe> <Computer> Commander Sardis - welcome.
<Sardis> Bridge.
<Snipe> ...
<Snipe> 6* The elevator begins to rise.
<Sardis> You said it yourself, Snipe. "Wears. Security. Badge."
<Dias> So Snipe, why did you lock down the ship?
* Snipe rubs his face.
* Dias laughs at Sardis's comment
<Snipe> Dias, get your elbow out of my gut.
<Dias> But that's not my elbow...
<Snipe> Oh Jesus
<Colephantus> ......3 times...in the last 10 minutes...
<Dias> Kidding.
<Snipe> 6* The elevator doors open to reveal a dark bridge, the lights dimmed.
* Dias still hasn't moved his elvow
* Dias pushes his way out
* Colephantus strains to see.
* Snipe stumbles out, looking around.
* Sardis steps out, looking side to side, hand on his gun.
*** Katrina` is now known as Stark
* Dias looks around, his eyes instantly adjusting to the darkness
* Stark steps out, leaning on his cane
<Stark> It's good to see you guys
<Colephantus> .....
<Sardis> Stark -- What's going on here?
* Dias spots Stark
<Dias> GAHHHH! UNDEAD!
<Stark> It would appear that everyone was copied in some... 6Looks at Dias dryly. "You remind me of someone I know back on Earth."
* Colephantus glances around.....confused.
<Snipe> Where's Katrina?
<Stark> I did not see her when I arrived.
<Sardis> Why's everyone fighting, though?
* Dias taps his Comm
<Dias> Comm: Kat, do you hear me?
<Stark> It would seem that the duplicates are fighting their counterparts. Perhaps the need to be the only "one".
<Colephantus> ......
<Dias> ...*turns to Stark* How do we know you're the real Stark?!
<Stark> Who's to state that anything is real or not? Are you any less real than the chair next to you?
<Sardis> Attacking on sight, you say?
<Stark> That would be my conclusions, yes.
* Snipe crosses his arms, thinking
<Dias> ...That doesn't answer my question.
<Colephantus> .....Wa....nevermind...
<Stark> Would anything I say satisfy your question?
<Dias> A simple, yes would've.
<Stark> 'Yes'.
<Dias> Good enough for me.
<Snipe> Alright, we need to seperate the duplicates from the real crew.
<Dias> And how do we do that?
<Snipe> I don't know!
<Colephantus> Say all clones to the left and all origionals to the right?
* Stark leans on his cane with his right hand.
<Snipe> I somehow doubt the duplicates will care.
<Colephantus> Yeah......
<Dias> ...Ok, I want to fight now.
<Colephantus> It was a joke.
<Snipe> Maybe we can use a scanner to identify the duplicates..
<Sardis> <Stark> *steps out from around the corner* Interesting.
* Stark turns to face the other Stark, his eyebrow rising
<Stark> Fascinating.
<Snipe> Oy vey.
<Dias> ...Sweet...A fight!
<Sardis> <Stark> *eyes Stark*
<Dias> 400 Gil on Stark.
* Stark eyes Stark
<Snipe> They're both Stark!
<Snipe> But which one is the real one?
<Dias> I know, I can't lose.
<Colephantus> ......
<Dias> Well if they're the same, doesn't it matter really?
<Snipe> We can't kill the real Stark!
<Sardis> <Stark> *leans on his cane with his left hand, studying other Stark* Agree to our differences?
* Sardis looks between the two.
<Stark> I see no reason not to.
<Sardis> <Stark> Very well. Let us solve this quandry.
<Dias> ...Bah...
<Stark> Agreed.
<Sardis> Wait, you two aren't going to fight?
<Stark> Too primitive.
<Sardis> <Stark> Too primitive.
* Snipe rubs his temples.
<Colephantus> Is it possible for us to get Headaches?
<Dias> Can't we just knock both of them out and forget them?
<Colephantus> NRP: Ment reploids btw.
<Snipe> Okay, which oen is the real one?
<Sardis> <Stark> *walks over to Stark* What do you think the cause of all this could be? I'm leaning towards a spacial anomaly--perhaps a fold in spacetime into itself to produce a mirror effect.
<Sardis> <Stark> I did notice you were right handed, whereas I am left.
<Stark> I believe you are right, now that you mention it. It would see when the Aquarius passed through the fold, it created a mirror image of the people on board.
<Snipe> Wait...so our duplicates...are like mirror images.
<Colephantus> ......So my duplicate is right handed?
<Sardis> <Stark> And as for who is the real one--I believe we will both say we're the original, and therefore it leaves little to debate.
<Snipe> And mine is lefthanded.
<Stark> I concur.
<Dias> ...God you two are lame.
<Snipe> A Stark is a Stark, it seems.
<Snipe> 6* Suddenly the elevator begins to rise.
<Snipe> Someone's coming
* Colephantus rubs his chin.
* Colephantus turns around to the elevator and creeps beside the wall to a corner.
* Sardis turns to the elevator.
<Sardis> <Stark> This could get interesting.
<Stark> Indeed.
* Dias turns to the Stark
*** Dias` has joined #taw
* Dias` steps out into the bridge.
<Dias> How could it get interesting?
<Snipe> ....Well, my nightmares have been realized.
* Dias turns his head back to see himself
<Sardis> <Stark> *nods to Dias*
* Dias` spots himself.
* Dias mouth drops
<Dias> I never knew I was that good looking!
* Colephantus slaps his forehead.
<Colephantus> Ahhh....jeez....two idiots.
<Dias`> Hot damn, I could kiss you
<Dias> If ya did...I'd have to kill you.
<Sardis> <Stark> *glances to Stark* I only hope they don't open communication by sniffing each other's posteriors.
<Snipe> Wait - wait, time out. The two Starks get to be friends, and the two Diases have sex?
<Stark> Chances are they will engage in a primitive ritual to see who is better.
* Dias` flexes his muscle at Dias
* Dias cocks his head
* Dias makes a fist
<Sardis> <Stark> This is Dias we're talking about. It will no doubt reduce to whomever has the larger...
* Colephantus sighs and then sets down leaning against the wall.
<Colephantus> This is gonna take....a long time...
* Dias` makes a fist, too.
* Dias pulls his fist up
* Dias` lifts his fist up.
* Dias slams his fist down, flattening it out into the shape of a a laid out hand
* Snipe stares.
* Sardis watches the two.
* Dias` makes the same shape.
<Dias> ...
* Colephantus is tempted to throw another datapad.
<Dias`> ...
<Dias`> You read my mind. That's cheating.
<Sardis> <Stark> *loses interest* Anyway, we should remain focused.
<Colephantus> Are they going to play Rock, Paper, Scissors?
<Dias> No...you read my mind.
<Stark> Agreed. The ship cannot handle double the crew.
<Dias`> Well, obviously there's only one way to solve this.
<Dias> Beat the crap out of Snipe here?
<Sardis> <Stark> Potentially, we could attempt to reproduce the anomaly and "iron out" the copies.
<Dias`> First thing's first. I gotta show you who's the man. 6He tackles Dias
<Dias> GAH!!! *is carried back*
<Stark> Yes, that could work.
* Dias` begins to punch repeatedly into Dias' stomach.
<Dias> Gah...Gah..
<Colephantus> .....
*** Colephantus` has joined #taw
* Colephantus` walks in
<Colephantus`> Dammit, Dias, would you --- 6Eyes himself.
* Colephantus looks over. "Ahhhhh horseshit..."
* Colephantus stands
* Snipe stands there, watching the mess.
* Colephantus` walks over to Cole.
* Dias grabs onto Dias's head and headbutts him
<Colephantus> I guess you wanna fight too?
* Dias` flies back into a chair, holding his head
<Sardis> ...
* Dias rubs his head
<Colephantus`> Well, you could never win at Shadow Fighting
<Dias> Oww...you have a friggin hard head.
<Colephantus> You couldn't either....
<Sardis> I hope I don't meet my copy.
<Dias`> Your head is harder.
<Colephantus`> Well, lets fix that.
<Sardis> <Stark> *seems deep in thought*
<Colephantus> I say we just throw stuff at the two idiots over there...
<Dias> Thank you!
* Stark thinks over various solutions.
* Colephantus sighs.
* Dias` dashes at Dias.
* Dias darts at Dias and grabs onto his him, spinning around and hurling him at the two Starks
* Dias` goes flying at Stark
* Stark leans to the side, letting Dias pass him.
* Colephantus looks at the other Cole....
* Dias runs over and slides behind Snipe
* Dias` bounces off the wall and flies back at Stark
<Sardis> <Stark> We must pilot the ship back into the area we passed through when this started.
<Dias> ...And what if that creates 4 of us?!
<Sardis> <Stark> *sidesteps Dias*
<Stark> I'll get on it now. 6Walks over to the controls.
* Colephantus glances down at a datapad.
* Dias` flies at Dias, his fist extended.
* Colephantus` glances at a datapad.
<Colephantus> You know how fun it is to bug the hell outta them....
* Dias shoves Snipe at his doppleganger
<Colephantus`> It would.
* Snipe ducks low, grabbing the other Dias, spinning and throwing him into a wall.
<Dias`> That's a low blow, Snipe.
<Colephantus> ......*glances from the datapad to Cole...*
*** Sardis` has joined #taw
<Dias> No...this is! *blurs infront of Dias and punches him in the crotch*
<Colephantus> Your choice.....
<Sardis> <Stark> *joins Stark and works in the coords*
* Sardis` walks in, eyeing the other Sardis
* Sardis looks to Sardis.
* Colephantus` punches at Cole.
<Dias`> OUF! ... bastard
<Sardis`> ...
* Sardis` grabs his gun
* Colephantus spins to the left bringing his elbow into the other Cole.
<Dias> I know...*grabs onto Dias and lifts him above his body
<Colephantus`> Argh. 6Leaps up and kicks at Cole's face.
* Dias` grabs Dias' hair and yanks.
<Dias> Hey Snipe...are you sure we want to let the doppleganger Stark bring this ship through the anamoli...AHHH!
<Sardis`> No fighting on the bridge!
* Colephantus gets kicked in the face and returns a roundhouse kick of his own.
<Sardis> NRP: ROFLAO
<Stark> Alright, I think I have the location down.
<Sardis> <Stark> Excellent.
* Colephantus` gets kicked, going for another punch when he pauses.
* Sardis looks to other Sardis and nods.
* Dias drops his doppleganger onto the ground
* Sardis` nods back, tapping his security badge.
* Snipe just looks on in horror.
* Colephantus grabs the other cole and throws him at the Sardis'
* Colephantus` crashes into Sardis
<Sardis`> ...
* Sardis` fires stun blasts at Cole
<Sardis> ...
* Sardis makes sure the other Cole stays down.
* Colephantus rolls to the left
<Dias> Let go of my hair!!
* Sardis` charges at Cole, throwing a punch at him.
<Sardis> <Stark> We'll be arriving slowly.
* Dias` yanks harder
<Sardis> NRP: Shortly.
<Stark> Yes. I just hope the others can control themselves until then
* Sardis throws other Cole into the wall, holding his arm behind his back.
* Dias swings his right hand around and slugs his copy
* Colephantus blocks with his left arm and returns a fist to the gut.
<Dias`> Ow!
<Sardis> <Stark> Looks as though the Sardis' are working on that.
* Colephantus` complains
* Sardis` grimaces, then grabs Cole's arm and tries to pin it behind his back
<Dias> Would you let go?
* Dias` lets go
<Dias`> Fine.
* Dias` sulks
* Colephantus spins and tries to flip Sardis over his shoulder.
* Snipe sits in the Captain's chair, a look of horror on his face.
* Dias grabs Dias's by the collar and hurls him at the Cole and Sardis
<Sardis> Keep this up and you'll both be thrown in the Brig!
* Sardis` grabs the flying Dias and bashes him into the floor.
<Dias`> Errr.
<Dias> ...Are you going to let someone weaker than you beat you up?!
* Colephantus falls back to where Snipe is.
*** Dias` is now known as DarkHeart
* Sardis holds his Cole in place, raising his gun to the other Dias.
* DarkHeart picks up Sardis and slams him into a console.
<Snipe> Oh shit.
<Colephantus> Ummmm we can't kill the dopplegangers can we?
<Dias> ....Ah fuck.
<Sardis> Now that's just uncalled for, Dias!
* DarkHeart grabs Cole by the neck
* Dias face tenses
<Sardis`> You're going...to the brig!
<Colephantus> Ahhhh Shit.
* Colephantus gets grabbed.
*** Dias is now known as DarkHeart`
* DarkHeart throws him at the other DH
* DarkHeart` grabs Cole and sets him down
* Colephantus is thrown.
* Colephantus is set down.
* Colephantus is dazed.
* DarkHeart` dashes at DarkHeart
<Stark> It seems we're at the area. Shall we proceed?
* DarkHeart dashes at DarkHeart`
<Sardis> <Stark> ... ETA?
* DarkHeart` grabs onto him and then disappears
<Stark> 2 minutes.
* Colephantus` tries to sneak off.
* Colephantus rolls to his feet and looks around at the chaos.
* DarkHeart` reappears in the Hanger floating in the air
<Sardis> <Stark> Fair enough...
* DarkHeart appears in the middle of the riot in the hanger, graplpling DH
* Colephantus` hides behind a chair.
* DarkHeart` locks grips with his doppleganger and begins pushing, his hair flapping around
<Colephantus> If we say....kill our or someone elses other half....could you get mad?
<Snipe> I don't see how at this moment.
* DarkHeart begins to power up.
* Colephantus glances at the other Cole.
* DarkHeart` body tenses as it powers up
<Sardis`> I demand order!
<Colephantus> Oh my god you big pussy! Hiding behind a chair?
* Colephantus` grabs the chair and brings it down at Cole.
* Sardis stands next to Sardis, gun aimed.
* Colephantus ignites his Katar and slices it into half.
* Sardis` gets the Tsivrixsh look of being aggrevated.
<Sardis> <Stark> One minute.
* Colephantus` ignites his Katar, holding it in his opposite hand
* DarkHeart` pulls his doppleganger towards himself and spins around hurling him towards the ground
* DarkHeart slams into the ground, making a hole. He flies up, punching at DH's stomach.
* Colephantus points his left hand at COle, Katar lit.
<Colephantus> Try me.
* Colephantus` holds out his right hand at Cole, Katar lit.
* Colephantus` dashes forward, slashing out at him.
* DarkHeart` body curls around the punch, his tail snaps around and warps around DH's arm and throws him behind him

* Colephantus` grimaces, then punches out at Cole's chin
* DarkHeart` goes flying towards the ground
<Sardis> <Stark> *turns to Stark*
<Stark> It is time.
* Colephantus gets hit and falls back and charges doing a roundhouse kick followed by a sweep.
<Sardis> <Stark> It was interesting. Unfortunatley it may get more interesting if we were wrong.
<Stark> Indeed, hopefully by our calculat---oh my.
<Stark> 6Alarms go off as the weight limit on the ship increases.
* Colephantus` leaps over the sweep.
* DarkHeart` flips around and reboudns off the ground, flying back at DH again
<Sardis> <Stark> That certainly can't be good.

* DarkHeart` rams into COle head first
<DarkHeart`> NRP :er...DH
* `Colephantus` steps onto the bridge
<Stark> Well, surely the three of us can figure this out.
* Colephantus glances at the third Cole.
* Colephantus` stands up, eyeing the new cole.
<Colephantus> ......Shit.....
<Sardis> <Stark> Indeed. Perhaps the newcomer will have some insight.
* `Colephantus` smiles.
* Sardis` looks over as the third Sardis arrives.
<Sardis`> No order.
*** `DarkHeart` has joined #taw
<Stark> Lets us hope so.
<Colephantus`> What is this, a friggin' party?
<Sardis> <Stark3> *steps in* Oh my. It seems as though the plan didn't work.
<Sardis> The three of us will have to administer justice.
* DarkHeart is rammed back into a gear.
* DarkHeart kicks off, trying to punch DH
<Sardis`> I agree. Let us bring out the tazers.
* `DarkHeart` drops down between the two DH's and spins kicks them away
<Colephantus> I dunno but this is pissing me off.
* Colephantus` is knocked back, bouncing a few times.
* DarkHeart` is nailed by the new one and flies backwards
<`Colephantus`> You can say that again....
<Colephantus`> It's pissing ME off.
<`Colephantus`> God your idiots...
<Sardis> By our tazers combined...
<Colephantus> FUck you stupid!
<Stark> Perhaps we need to find a new way of flying through the anamolie.
<Sardis`> We shall shock justice into them
<`Colephantus`> Don't make me bitch slap the smarts into you.
<Colephantus`> Fuck you!

<DarkHeart> ARGH
* DarkHeart roars and punches at DH1
* DarkHeart` comes in from the side and tackle rams both of them twoards the wall
<Sardis`> Justice.
* DarkHeart slams against the wall.
* Colephantus` bites on one Cole's ear.
<Colephantus> !!!! *elbows him into the gut*
* DarkHeart` grabs the two's heads and slams them into each other

* `DarkHeart` lets out a bloodcurdling howl

<Sardis> <Stark> Indeed, yet we can still talk.
<Sardis> <Stark3> Ineed.
* DarkHeart rips up a piece of the floor and tries to hit both DHs with it
<Stark> Perhaps we can talk to one of the others and -- no, no I don't suppose so.
* Colephantus` bounces against the floor.
<Sardis> <Stark> As of now, I'm merely hoping they don't step on us.
* `Colephantus` tackles Cole 1 again.
<Stark> Agreed.
<Colephantus> Gah! *slams into a console*
* DarkHeart` energy flares up, melting a hole into the floor, letting it pass around him
* Snipe leans next to the Starks
* `DarkHeart` blurs out of the way
<Snipe> Think if I flew into the anamolie backwards it would help?

* DarkHeart` disappears and reappears behind DH2 and shoves his hands into his back, releasing a blast of Dark Matter into him
* `Colephantus` gets off of Cole 1 and then punches at Cole 2.

* DarkHeart flies forward.
* Colephantus` is punched back
* Snipe grabs the controls, flying backwards.
* `DarkHeart` rams into DH2 slamming his hands into his chest and releasing another blast of DarkMatter

* `Colephantus` also grabs cole's other leg.
* Colephantus is grabbed and falls.
* DarkHeart` begins powering up, his purple black flare beginning to flare out
<Sardis> <Stark> Collapse into the anamoly... it would prove thought provoking.
<DarkHeart`> NRP: First flare is Aura
<Stark> Indeed. The possibilities that would occur are limitless.
* `DarkHeart` begins to power up, his aura matching the size of DH's
<Snipe> 6* As the Aquarius passes backwards through the anomalie, a bright light flashes, and the duplicates begin to vanish one by one.
* `Colephantus` vanished.
*** `Colephantus` has quit IRC (Quit: Oh man Superman is the Greatest! Yeah right Batman is only human and has killed him a number of times.)
<Sardis> <Stark> Continued multiplication within the area... it could result in the destruction of the universe due to constantly expanding mass created by duplicates.
*** Sardis` has left #taw
* `DarkHeart` vanishes
*** `DarkHeart` has quit IRC (Quit: )
<Stark> Yes it could - but it seems this time it worked out to our benefit.
*** Colephantus` has left #taw
<DarkHeart`> ...*looks around
*** DarkHeart has left #taw
<Sardis> <Stark> Indeed.
* Colephantus rubs his chin.
* DarkHeart` crosses his arms, disappearing
<Stark> Well, this has been a good ol' romp through the unknown, has it not?
* Colephantus slowly gets to his feet.
* Snipe looks over at the two Starks still yapping.
* DarkHeart` reappears next to Snipe on the deck
*** DarkHeart` is now known as Dias
<Colephantus> Wait....why is there still two Starks?
<Dias> ...*looks over at the Starks* So how's it feel to be wrong?
<Sardis> <Stark> *looks to Stark* It appears the copying isn't an exact science.
<Stark> Indeed. Some bugs to work out, it would appear.
<Sardis> <Stark> Indeed.
<Colephantus> .........
* Stark begins to fade away
<Sardis> <Stark> Nice meeting you.
<Stark> And it was nice meeting you. A reflective experience.
<Dias> ...*looks at Snipe* So how did we get rid of them?
* Stark vanishes entirely.
*** Stark has left #taw
<Snipe> I flew through the anamolie backwards.
<Colephantus> Heh....simple eh?
<Sardis> <Stark> Well that was enthralling.
<Dias> Huh...*looks at Stark*
<Dias> Why didn't you come up with this idea?
<Snipe> You know, one can only wonder what 3 Sardises would have done if they found 3 Katrinas...
<Sardis> <Stark> I did. I just didn't account for the law of anti-sense.
<Sardis> NRP: Meanwhile: <Katrina> Sardis!? SARDIS!? Where'd you go!? Now there's only one in me!
<Dias> Sure you did...
<Dias> NRP: ....That was...wrong
<Snipe> NRP: LOL
<Sardis> NRP: Of me! I meant OF me. Really!
<Snipe> NRP: LOL
<Snipe> Still, I think we should all be glad it's over without any epic battles.
<Colephantus> ....Might wanna check Hangar damages before you say that...
* Sardis looks to Dias.
* Dias gives Sardis a blank expression
<Sardis> NRP: HAH jokes on you. Sardis is with Kat. That was supposed tobe Stark. >>.<<
<Dias> NRP: Too late now.
<Snipe> 6* The Aquarius continues to fly unabitated through space.
<Colephantus> Well.....alls well that....err ends well?
<Snipe> Right.

<Snipe> Session 166: The Motenk Hunt
<Dias> Gay...
<Snipe> Time Chart: July 20th, 2223
<Snipe> Location: Aquarius - Bridge
* Colephantus is leaning against his favorite wall.
<Snipe> Well, there it is - the first planet we've encountered in the Unknown Regions.
<Snipe> 6* A green planet with white swirls can be seen
<Colephantus> Looks creepy....
<Dias> Can I name it?
<Snipe> What if the people on the planet have names on it?
<Dias> So?
<Snipe> We'll wait on naming it. We'll call it Snipe's Discover #1 until then
<Snipe> (Discovery)
<Dias> That's not fair.
<Colephantus> Why Snipe's? Were all here too?
* Colephantus smirks.
<Snipe> Because it was my idea to come here!
<Colephantus> Liar!
<Colephantus> Ok Ok I guess...it was...
<Snipe> I think we should investigate it. See what sort of life we can fine.
<Snipe> (find)
<Dias> Atmosphere breathable?
<Snipe> Yes it is.
<Dias> ...I was asking the Science Officer...
* Dias looks over for Kat
<Snipe> She's not on duty.
<Colephantus> ....Does we...involve....me, you and Dias?
<Snipe> Of course.
<Dias> You think she'd want to see this.
<Snipe> I think she's sick.
<Dias> And where's Sardis and or Stark?
<Snipe> Stark is working on a new discovery and Sardis said something about taking care of Kat.
<Colephantus> Hey do we get to take any of the Ensigns with us?
<Dias> How sickening.
<Snipe> We don't need Ensigns.
<Dias> Let's take ensign 2 with us.
<Snipe> <Ensign 2> 'ell no.
* Colephantus forgets that he himself is still and ensign.
<Snipe> Lets go to the teleportation room.
* Snipe walks into the elevator.
<Dias> Come here 2...
* Dias waves his finger at him
<Snipe> <Ensign 2> No way. Ensigns always die on these away trips.
* Colephantus gets into the elevator.
<Dias> Fine...*walks off into the elevator*
* Snipe taps the button and the elevator goes down.
* Colephantus notices without the Tsiv that it is roomier in here.
<Snipe> 6* Except for the fact R2D2 is in there.
<Dias> So how many lifesigns did you pick up on the planet?
<Colephantus> Pleae say 3....
<Snipe> A lot. Like, 69 billion. But I think a lot of it was insects...
<Colephantus> NRP: Please..
<Dias> NRP: Gah 69...where's my girlfriend.
* Snipe steps off at the teleportation room, getting on the teleporter.
* Colephantus yawns. Then steps onto a teleporter as well.
* Dias steps off the elevator and hops up onto the elevator
* Snipe eyes Dias
<Snipe> What...is he doing?
* Dias eyes Snipe
<Dias> NRP: Gah...
<Colephantus> NRP: lol.
* Dias hops off the elevator and walks over to the teleporter, stepping on
<Snipe> 6* R2 beeps mournfully as they teleport down to the planet.
<Snipe> 6* The three appear near a Western looking town. They are in a desert with no green insight,.
* Dias looks around
<Colephantus> .....Odd.
<Dias> For this planet being green...
<Snipe> Figures the idiot teleporter put us in a desert with that much green
<Snipe> Well, there seems to be civilization over there. Should we go check it out?
<Colephantus> Why not....
<Dias> ...Sure.
<Snipe> Remember, to them we're aliens. So, try to blend in...and lets hope they're not green.
<Snipe> With one eye.
* Snipe begins to walk along the desert, adjusting his brown coat as he walks along.
* Colephantus follows wondering how he could fit in with an alien.
* Dias follows alongside Snipe
<Dias> So...I suppose this means now Dark Heart?
<Dias> NRP: no.
<Snipe> 6* As they approach the town, they can see what appears to be humans. Many of them are dressed in outfits to protect them from the sun, but to allow themselves to be cool. A dog sits near by, sunning itself in the sun
<Snipe> Yes, no DH.
<Dias> Ahh well...
<Snipe> Wow, they look pretty human to me.
* Dias pulls off his sweatshirt, the heat starting to become uncomfortable
* Snipe walks into the town area, noting they are getting some glances from the natives, who seem to just shrug and figure they are travelers.
* Colephantus sighs.
<Snipe> Something wrong, Cole?
<Colephantus> This place seems.....very backwater...
* Dias eyes people
<Colephantus> NRP: I have to go.
<Dias> NRP: What the....
<Colephantus> NRP: my mom.....odd but I have to go....
<Snipe> NRP: Ooookay.
<Colephantus> NRP: Shes yelling at me....so now I have to clean....
<Colephantus> NRP: Sorry....
