<Thedda> NRP: PI IS EXACTLY 3!!!!!
<Alicia> NRP: Okay, no more numbers from me
<Katrina`> Time Chart: June 30th, 2222
<Katrina`> Location: The Aquarius, Deep Space
* Katrina` quietly sits at the science station, working on some scans. Her hair is up in a bun, not it's usual down style. She also has been unusually quiet since the funeral for Namarie.
* Shiva` sits down in the Hanger Bay, hard at work on a Circuit Board
* Thedda hovers above a stool in the bar, sipping her drink from a straw.
* Cardinal sleeps soundly in her quarters, tired after helping with the inspections on the Aquarius. Katrina is currently in charge on the bridge, with the exhausted Dharina on call.
<Raistlin`> *the elevator opens on the bridge, out steps a new face. He walks out towards the captains chair, but sees no one in it. he then asks where the captain is to number 3*
<Shiva`> *sparks can be seen shooting off from the circuit board*
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: Captain? .... Captain....we have a Captain?
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Yes, you idiot. Katrina over there is in charge. *points*
* Thedda sighs... she finished off her drink and heads to the elevator. She gets on and zooms up to where Kat and the rest are.
* Shiva` rolls backwards and spins around, quickly stopping herself at a table behind her and grabs another circuit board
<Raistlin`> *the person nods as he walks up to Katrina, and solutes to her. he then lowers his hand and passes her an inclosed brown envolope "The orders."
<Raistlin`> *
* Thedda reaches the floor and floats out, seeing Katrina, and a new face. "Hey Kat.."
<Katrina`> ...hm? *looks up, a bit dazed, as if she were far away.* Hello...Ensign...? *she asks questioningly, taking the envolope and opening them. She reads the papers, her frown apparant*
* Katrina` turns to Thedda, nodding respectfully.
<Katrina`> Commander, we have a replacement for Namarie. Ensign Raistlin.
* Raistlin` turns to Thedda and solutes to her
* Shiva` spins back around and slides upto her normal table and begins working on that circuit board, running dianostic checks on them
* Thedda moves over to Kat and makes herself eye level to this new person. "Oh..." she pauses, a sadness shines in her eyes, but only for a second. "Hello. Nice to meet you."
* Raistlin` lowers his arm "Pleasure." echos coldly from his lips
* Katrina` glances at Raistlin momentarily, then turns back to her scans.
* Thedda glances at Kat in the corner of her eye. "Can I talk to you for a moment?"
<Katrina`> Yes, sir. *stands up and walks over to the side of the bridge no one is on, hands folded together behind her back*
<Katrina`> GM: *An Ensign with a shirt tied to his head like a ninja walks by Shiva*
* Shiva` continues working, goggles over her eyes
* Thedda follows Katrina then looks at her.. "Are you okay.... You look like you're having a hard time.."
<Katrina`> I'm...fine, sir. *swallows a bit, her eyes shifting to the floor*
* Raistlin` walks up to his station as he checks it over, he then taps a few placecs on the console as he runs a few checks
* Thedda looks down a moment. "I know it's hard.. I'm not happy about this new replacement so soon either...."
<Katrina`> ...I guess it just...makes Namarie so...real now. Knowing that he's never coming back...
<Katrina`> (his death)
<Thedda> It's hard to finally make the realization that a person we all cared about, whether or not we noticed how much we cared, is gone.. You'll pull through this Kat, you're a strong girl.
* Katrina` nods.
* Shiva` reaches behind her and grabs a canister, she then begins doing checks on it
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *looks at Raistlin* You're a reploid, aren't you?
* Thedda smiles at Kat. "I'd give you a hug, but... well, lack of arms. " She winks, hoping to make her feel slightly better.
* Raistlin` looks down towards Ensign 2 "Yes, why?"
* Katrina` smiles, just a little bit.
* Thedda turns around as she hears a comment about reploids. "Why would that matter Ensign??"
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: It's just nice...seeing a reploid with an entire body! *says just loud enough for Thedda to hear*
* Thedda zooms over to the Ensign and glares at him.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: ... eeeee.
* Thedda doesn't move her focus.. "What was that?"
* Katrina` moves back over to her station
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: I said, what lovely hair you have, sir!
* Raistlin` shakes his head "hunters.. oi.."
* Thedda snarls at the Ensign. "Better watch your fucking mouth Ensign... I'd watch your back when I get my body back."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: ... *bursts out laughing*
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: haw...Watch your back....when I get MY body back...*falls out of the chair laughing*
* Thedda doesn't take her eyes away from the Ensign... She moves a little closer only a few CM from his face. She snaps at him with her teeth.
<Thedda> NRP: blasted, I worded that wrong. >.< I'm tiredf.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *places a little baseball cap on Thedda's head*
* Shiva` let's out a breath of air and set's her tools down and push's back from the desk with her feet, rolling towards the Docking Bay Entrance and spins around so she faces it.
<Katrina`> ... uh, Commander, I'm detecting something.
<Raistlin`> This place is a nut house.. *Glaces towrds Katrina*
* Thedda leaves the Ensign and moves over to Kat. "What do you have Kat?"
<Shiva`> Where are you...
* Shiva` stares out at towards the stars.
<Katrina`> There's some type of unusual readings coming from nearby in the sector. All my scans are being warped around it.
* Thedda hovers beside Kat. ".... Odd..."
* Katrina` hits a few scientific and fancy looking buttons.
<Katrina`> I've never seen anything like it before. Perhaps we should investigate?
* Thedda shakes her head so the hat will fall off.
<Thedda> Be a good idea Kat... do some test to see if you can find out what it is.
* Katrina` gives Ensign 2 the coords.
* Thedda floats back and forth, as if she was pacing.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *aims the Aquarius in that direction*
<Katrina`> Ensign 5: *eyes the floating cabbage oracle*
* Raistlin` looks towards Thedda "What exatuly happened to your body.."
<Shiva`> NRP: HAHA!!!
* Thedda pauses and looks at Raistlin. " I wasn't paying attention while in an enemy territory and stepped onto a booby-trapped elevator.... I'm lucky to be alive."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: She's lucky her head is so thick, alright!
<Shiva`> I'll find you....
* Thedda ignores Ensign
<Thedda> (the Ensign.
* Shiva` stands up and push's her chair over to her desk, it rolling right to it
<Katrina`> GM: *up ahead, there's like a small cloud of dust*
<Katrina`> ...my scans are totally off the charts now. I can't tell left from right, sir.
<Thedda> Hey Kat, are you getting any readings from that cloud?
<Raistlin`> I see.
<Thedda> Hrmmm..
<Thedda> I want to be catious around this... Don't need anything unnessecary happening.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Shall I slow down, then?
<Raistlin`> *a small ballon appears next to thedda's head*
<Shiva`> ...*begins walking towards the elevator*
<Thedda> Yes, Engisn please.
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: ... I didn't know it was Thedda's birthday....?
* Thedda doesn't notice the balloon."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *brings the Aquarius to a halt*
* Katrina` turns from her station, eyeing the balloon
<Thedda> Huh?
* Thedda turns around, smacking the balloon as she turns.
* Raistlin` glances towards it as well. as the balloon flies towards him
<Thedda> Ow... What the hell?
<Katrina`> Who let that on?
<Thedda> I hate balloons.. *mumbles*
<Thedda> Somebody pop it.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: You hate everything.
<Thedda> I don't need that thing floating aroundf.
* Raistlin` shrugs as he grasps ahold of the ballon
<Raistlin`> *balloon
<Thedda> That's not true Ensign.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Stop being negative.
<Thedda> I don't hate Kat, or Captain.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: You're being neeegative.
<Thedda> Would you just shut up for like 20 god damn seconds?
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *pauses, counts out 20 seconds, then smiles* Sure.
<Thedda> .. Kat, you getting anything from that cloud? There's not a ship behind that is there?
<Katrina`> I'm not getting anything. All our scans are now focused inward. It's like they were bent around.
* Raistlin` pops the balloon. he then turns around as he gets the glance of something in the corner of his eye. Out of reaction he swings out his saber, in a style both KAt and Thedda know. "...." places the saber away
<Katrina`> ...
<Thedda> ......
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: .....
* Thedda eyes Raistlin for a moment.
<Thedda> I'd watch where you swing that Ensign....
<Raistlin`> Ensign 6.3: ...!!!
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *eyes this bug*
* Shiva` steps onto the elevator and takes it upto the bridge
<Thedda> Being bent...? *ponders for a moment* .... Think we should enter it?
<Thedda> It's against my better judgement, but this is definately odd.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Alright. *heads forward*
* Katrina` eyes Raistlin briefly, then turns back to her console.
<Vile> NRP: 6.3?! Someone stole MY 6.3!
* Thedda makes her way to the front of the captains chair. She watches as they move forward.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: We'll be in the cloud in...30 seconds, Commander.
* Shiva` steps onto the bridge
<Katrina`> NRP: 6.3 is real in this place! AAAH
* Thedda nods.. "Thanks Kat... be prepared for anything people.
<Raistlin`> *they enter the cloud.. everything on the ship momentarly blacks out as the systems seem to reconfigure and reboot. When the lights come back on the bridge floor is covered in snakes, and the air in the bridge becomes mysty...*
* Shiva` spins around and looks
<Thedda> Raistlin, I'd like you to be at the weapons station --
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *screams like a little girl*
<Shiva`> ....What the hell...*quickly eyes the snakes*
<Thedda> What the helll?!?!?!
<Katrina`> ...
* Katrina` gasps and jumps up on top of her consol.
* Raistlin` glances down at the snakes "...."
<Thedda> Oh my god...... *begins to shoot them with her cool laser!*
* Shiva` doesn't move
<Shiva`> Skippy...
<Katrina`> Skippy: There's snakes on me! SNAAAAAKES!
<Thedda> GET US OUTTA HERE!
<Raistlin`> That was intersting... *snakes slither all over and around his feet*
<Shiva`> Skippy: Are the snake's poisonous.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *keeps screaming like a little bitch*
<Katrina`> Skippy: Scanning. *Scans them*
* Thedda continues to fly around and shooting at the snakes.
<Thedda> ENGISN 2!! GET US THE FUCK OUTTA HERE NOW GOD DAMMIT.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: EEEEEEE!
<Katrina`> Skippy: Some are.
<Thedda> ... FOr fuck sakes, SOMEBODY GET TO THOSE CONTROLS AND GET US OUTTA HERE.
<Raistlin`> *out of the corner of Katrina`s eyes she sees something, like her mother?*
<Katrina`> ...Ariel?
* Katrina` glances to the right.
<Shiva`> NRP: No, her real mother stupid!
<Katrina`> NRP: She's never seen her!
* Shiva` reach's her hand out and begins freezing the snakes
<Raistlin`> Co-gm: *nothing is there but myst abd a flying head*
* Katrina` glances at the flying head.
<Vile> NRP: Strangely enough, thats pretty normal for Aquarius.
<Katrina`> NRP: LOL
<Thedda> NRP: *cries*
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *covers his eyes*
<Cardinal> * The elevator doors slide open. Cardinal stands there, panting heavily. The fact that she is barefoot and wearing only a bathrobe shows that she fled her quarters rather quickly.
* Thedda gives up and just hovers.
<Cardinal> ...What in the name of the goddess is going on here?
* Raistlin` pulls out his ion pistol and fires at the snakes
<Thedda> If I knew Captain, I'd tell you.
<Katrina`> Snakes: *fall on Cardinal's head*
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *is still screaming*
* Cardinal swings the sword that she is already holding at the snakes
<Thedda> There was a rather large dust cloud and it was bouncing all of our scans off.. I obviously made the stupid mistake by trying to move into it...
* Katrina` glances at the flight controls, all the way across the bridge from her
* Thedda sighs, as she looks to the floor of snakes.
* Cardinal gives up on cutting and leaps into the air and hovers
<Thedda> Sorry Captain...
<Raistlin`> co-gm: *as Cardinal leaps into the air, the snakes dissapear, taking her robes and everyone elses clothing with them.*
<Vile> NRP: The Space Gods are a cruel, cruel people. Not to mention perverted.
* Thedda blinks and looks at everybody..
* Cardinal glances at herself and grumbles, more annoyed than embarrassed
<Thedda> .... Where did all of your clothes go?
* Katrina` pauses, glances down at her breasts, then quickly covers them with her arms and closes her legs together to hide from pervs, like Ensign 2.
* Shiva` hair drops down and covers his breasts' and mmhmm area.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *googles at the Capatin*
* Cardinal lands, crosses her wings over her chest and stomach, and walks to her console
<Thedda> Well, this is the one time I'm glad I don't have a body....
<Shiva`> .....This isn't good..
<Katrina`> ihatethisihatethis...
<Shiva`> Can you try to pull us out of this thing?
<Vile> NRP: Thedda's flesh vanishes, "Dammit!"
<Raistlin`> *a thong appears on Thedda's head*
* Thedda raises a brow as something lands on her head.. "What the hell??" she shakes it off her head.
* Cardinal sits in the Captain's chair and mutters, tapping her sword against her leg
* Raistlin` grumbles as he turns to facee the control pannal. "Well this thing we are in, sure isn`t that great..."
<Cardinal> ...Wait a second, who are you?
* Cardinal glares at Raistlin
<Shiva`> Kat, can you scan this thing we're in?
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Isn't that great? It's feeding off my deepest desires.
<Cardinal> You seem pretty calm for the situation we're in right now.
<Katrina`> ...I would...if I could move my hands.
<Raistlin`> I am the replasment.
<Thedda> .... Kat, just do it...
<Cardinal> Sorry about this, Katrina. Start scanning.
* Katrina` turns red, slides off the console, turns her back to everyone, and attempts to scan.
* Shiva` walks over and stands infront of Kat, blocking her from other's eyes and also giving her a hand
<Thedda> It's not like we haven't seen a naked woman before.
<Raistlin`> Katrina, has my tranfer orders. *walks over to Katrina, eyes obverted* the envolaope
* Katrina` thrusts it at him, not in the mood.
<Cardinal> ...Whatever, I believe you.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Shall I fly out of here?
<Raistlin`> Alright..
<Shiva`> What about that? *points at a spot on the computer*
* Thedda sighs and lowers herself to the ground.
<Katrina`> It seems...space is warping around us....and there's more lifesigns on here than just the crew.
* Raistlin` turns back around to face his station, as he hears a more klunky sound. he looks down as he seems to hace turned... red!
<Cardinal> ...Like the sharas, maybe?
<Shiva`> Sharas?
* Katrina` glances at Raistlin, who looks much like the old Zero of lore.
<Katrina`> ....who in the...Zero?
<Cardinal> Snakes, I mean, sorry...
* Thedda looks up at Raistlin. "What the..."
* Raistlin` looks towards Katrina "Yes..?" he walks up towards her
<Katrina`> ....
* Katrina` glances at him, edging away a little.
<Shiva`> We should send a probe out to see if it can make it out of this thing.
<Katrina`> Skippy: UH, Captain, we might have a situation.
<Thedda> Everything's a situation.
<Cardinal> Start talking.
<Cardinal> ...As if this whole situation isn't a sit...u...never mind.
<Vile> NRP: The ship becomes a side-scroller. Sprites attack the crew.
<Katrina`> Skippy: Well, the situation could be if that's Zero, he'll kill us all?
<Thedda> Well that's comforting.'
<Cardinal> ...Who?
<Thedda> Who is Zero anyway.?
* Shiva` raise's her hand up towards Raistlin, her glove glowing a bright blue
<Katrina`> Skippy: Killer Reploid.
<Raistlin`> Co-gm: *thedda suddenly gets her body as x steps out from behind her*
<Shiva`> I don't know who you are but don't take another step...
* Katrina` glances at X.
<Cardinal> ...That settles it. I'm still asleep, and this is all a really messed up dream.
<Katrina`> This...can't be right. They're both dead.
* Thedda falls to the ground.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *looks at Cardy's ass*
<Thedda> .....!!!!
<Thedda> MY BODY!
<Thedda> OH MY GOD!!!!
<Katrina`> They died more than a century ago.
* Cardinal is sitting
<Shiva`> Skippy, send a probe out towards the edge of this...anomaly...
<Katrina`> Skippy: Done.
* Thedda jumps to her feet and begins jumping up and down.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *attempts to pilot the Aquarius from the anomaly*
<Shiva`> What kind of energy is it picking up?
<Shiva`> Ensign 2, hold on for now.
<Katrina`> Skippy: It's all...garbled.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *stops the Aquarius*
* Raistlin` pulls out his saber and starts to attack X, and a large fight erupts on the bridge.
<Katrina`> ...
* Katrina` sits down next to Cardinal
<Katrina`> We're in hell.
<Cardinal> *glances at Kat* Why did I get out of bed, anyway?
* Shiva` fires off an ice blast directly at Raistlin, sending a continuos beam of ice at him
* Thedda smacks her forehead at Raistlin.. "Well... this is fun...."
<Katrina`> Why the hell aren't we just dead?
<Thedda> Because we weren't smart enough to all commit suicide.
<Cardinal> NRP: Sounds like a plan to me. *stab stab*
<Thedda> NRP: LOL!
<Vile> NRP: Thedda attempts to bite herself to death.
<Raistlin`> *across from Cardinal appears McBride. and Cardinal seems to be back in her old codet uniform, and both of them are back in the acadime*
* Shiva` clench's her fist, ending the ice blast
<Shiva`> ....What in the..
<Thedda> NRP: *Thedda proceeds to eat everybody;s tongue!*
<Cardinal> ...At least I'm not naked any more...
<Thedda> NRP: Both you mean McBride, and Cardinal?
<Raistlin`> teacher: What did you say? *looks at Cardinal*
<Raistlin`> NRP: yes
<Cardinal> ...
<Shiva`> Skippy, what have you found yet?
* Raistlin` falls over after X dissapears... as he does so, Shiva seems to be with the one she has been looking for....
* Thedda feels her whole body, just to make sure it's real.
*** Garland is now known as Sardis
<Shiva`> ....*blinks at looks at the figure infront of her*
<Shiva`> ...How...how did you get here?
*** Slasher has joined #taw
<Vile> NRP: "I typed '/join #TAW'!"
<Katrina`> NRP: LOL
* Katrina` sits next to Thedda.
<Thedda> ... I shouldn't get too used to this.. I know it will be gone soon.
<Vile> NRP: 'sits' being a relative term, of course.
<Slasher> *stands infront of her* I've always been here...You think they could've gotten me?
<Shiva`> But....you weren't here a second ago...
<Katrina`> There's no point to this...there's just random occurances.
<Sardis> NRP: And now... the lesbian sex.
<Thedda> NRP: WHERE?!!?! *looks*
<Katrina`> It's like none of this makes any scientific sense. Snakes, nudity, X and Zero, now Cardinal's in some academy with McBride, and ... Slasher has appeared.
<Vile> NRP: Someone have Graves appear in it! We could have midget lesbian sex!
<Katrina`> There's no logical direction in any of this....
* Slasher cross's his arms
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: I call it one fine wet dream myself.
<Thedda> NRP: Am I naked, or did I get clothes with my body? lol
<Katrina`> NRP: Naked as a jay-bird!
<Thedda> NRP: Booyah!
<Shiva`> But...But....*looks down, not sure what to do*
<Vile> NRP: In actuality, Thedda IS a jay-bird. Oh cruel irony!
* Raistlin` stands up as he seems to split into three people.
<Katrina`> ...*looks at Thedda* There's got to be something to link all this stuff together.
* Thedda lays down and stretches.
*** Raistlin` is now known as DeathStar2
*** weindigo` has joined #TAW
<Thedda> ....Well, I got what is important to me back, my body.
*** Zero`` has joined #TAW
<Katrina`> ...De---Dad...?
* DeathStar2 walks over to Katrina and scoops her up in his arms, she seems to be back on Origen, when she was a child.
<Katrina`> No, it's not real...*rubs her temples* None of this adds up.
<Thedda> Isn't DS what you want?
<Shiva`> This is too much...
<Thedda> .... We are all getting things we can't have right now.
<Slasher> What's too much? You know this is what you wanted.
* weindigo` walks over Thedda, looking her up and down... "well then..."
* Katrina` hugs on Ds, finding it hard to think.
* Thedda looks up at Weindigo. "Well, hello there!"
* Zero`` moves into the elevator and down into the lower decks.
<Slasher> NRP: Wouldn't Slasher and DS both be fighting Wien.
<Katrina`> NRP: Technically!
<Thedda> NRP: Sssshhhh!
<Shiva`> No...your not real!
<Vile> NRP: In the 'large battle on the bridge'?
<weindigo`> Hello.. * looks her stright in the eyes*
<Katrina`> NRP: *waits for wien to rape Thedda and kill her. Not necessarily in that order*
* Thedda raises a brow at Wein... "What?"
* Zero`` goes on a killing spree in the lower decks
* Shiva` grabs her head and drops to the floor, a pounding headache
* Katrina` closes her eyes.
<Thedda> If you're gonna tell me I'm naked, I'm WAY ahead of yah.
<DeathStar2> How are you? *props her up on his hip*
<Katrina`> I--I'm fine...
<weindigo`> Well then.. lets get lost.
* Slasher kneels down next to Shiva and puts his arm on her shoulder
<Cardinal> ...*looks up from what apparently is a test at the "teacher"* Listen, this can't be real! Not only did I graduate months ago, I never had you for any classes, and never in this room, either. Now, if you'll kindly drop this illusion...
<Thedda> ...*smirks at Wein* Where might we be going? *she stands up*
* Shiva` grabs Slasher's hand and begins to freeze it
* Slasher recoils his hand, trying to break free from her cold grip
<DeathStar2> Teacher: thats it you are expelled
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *watches the chaos*
* weindigo` waves her towards the dark.. corner
* Shiva` release's her grip and stands up, backing over to Ensign 2
<Shiva`> ....Pull this ship out now...
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: What I wouldn't give for three hot naked chicks...and...uh...whip cream. *looks at Shiva* Nice ass.
* Cardinal cracks her neck. "Looks like year one is coming back to haunt me."
<Thedda> hey, why not... *holds out her hand to Wein*
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Stay. Go. Stay. Go. Fine. *grabs the controls and begins to pilot the Aquarius away*
* weindigo` takes her hand and off they go
<DeathStar2> whats on your mind?
* Slasher looks down at his hand
* Thedda walks with Wein, shakin her ass as she walks, knowing she looks damn good naked.
<Shiva`> Skippy, scan for lifeforms in this anomaly.
<Katrina`> Skippy: Scanning for lifeforms inside this anomaly....
<Cardinal> If I'm expelled then, see you. *walks out*
<Katrina`> Skippy: Yes, there is a lifeform.
<Shiva`> Lock onto it and fire all weapons.
* Slasher looks at Shiva
<Slasher> You don't wanna do this Shiva..
<DeathStar2> *shiva sees someone sitting in the councelars chair*
<Katrina`> Skippy: Attempting to lock on and fire.
<Shiva`> Yes I do...
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *keeps flying away from the cloud, if he can*
<Shiva`> Enough of these chirades.....Your not real!
<Shiva`> KATRINA!
<Katrina`> Aquarius: *fires at the anomaly, if possible*
<Katrina`> ...?
* Katrina` pauses, looking around "Origin"
<Shiva`> Snap out of it..
* Katrina` looks at DS.
<Shiva`> That's not your Death Star.
<Katrina`> But---
* Slasher walks towards Shiva and reaches out for her again
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: We hsould be out of the damn thing now, but those things are still here, Shiva.
<DeathStar2> *They get out of the cloud of dust, as they do. all their images dissapear, all that kat is on Rais's hip.
<Katrina`> ...
* Katrina` glances at Rais, then EEKS and jumps off
* Shiva` shakes her head
<Thedda> NRP: *wonders who Thedda is with.*
* weindigo` is torn away from his activaties with Thedda and flies into Rais

<DeathStar2> *pause*
*** DeathStar2 is now known as Raistlin`
* Thedda coughs and makes her away out of the dark corner.. Her face is flush and she's a bit sweaty.
<Katrina`> NRP: Monologue time. *nudges thedda*
<Thedda> NRP: Whoops, sorry!
* Raistlin` slowly lofts his head as his vision is blured, all the moments that have just occured corseing throught his head. his thoughts raceing within his mind, all coming down to who am i?
* Raistlin` remebers the good Dr. creating him, telling him that he shall be great, the dr. telling Raist that he is everything that is great. But he never knew what that ment.
<Raistlin`> .oO(why is this.. am i Deathstar, Weindago, Zero.. who? or are they all me... Has my creator just used their memories to build my personality... Fuck.. i dunno...)
<Raistlin`> .oO(I hate this... i can`t figure this out... am i all of them... No wait.. I am.. can i? why can`t i be them all in one, become the creation of distruction, the leader of the people, and the sly lone wolf.. but i am not me..)
* Raistlin` 's vission slowly come into focuse as his mind seems to clear slightly from this fog.. and before him stands... Ensign 6.3
<Raistlin`> *resume*
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *gasp* It's...An Ensign and a third!
*** Vile is now known as Ensign6
<Ensign6> NRP..Bloody hell.

<Raistlin`> NRP: they are back to normal now ppl
* Katrina` adjusts her uniform, nervous and haunted by what just occurred.
* Shiva` looks around
* Cardinal sits in the Captain's chair again, and smirks
* Ensign6`3 claps, lightly. He appears a young man of about 20 or so, in an Alliance uniform, "Very nicely done, all of you. Though, I must protest against firing into the anomally. Naughty naughty.
<Shiva`> This is freaky....*turns to the Ensign* Who are you?
* Thedda drops to the ground.
<Thedda> ... Ow.
* Raistlin` looks up at 6.3 as he slowly gets to his feet
<Katrina`> ...and I thought Ensign 4 was just plain crazy...
<Ensign6`3> You want a name? I have so many, depending on what race passes through here.
<Shiva`> Ensign 2, you have a lock on the anomaly yet?
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: ... yeeaaaah. I think he's here, on the bridge, talking to us.
* Thedda shakes her head and remains on the floor.
* Ensign6`3 appears above Ensign 2, at eye level - only, upside down and floating, "Please dont kill me."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Why?
* Cardinal just sits, watching with interest
* Ensign6`3 waves a finger, "Because it's wrong."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: ooooh. *stands down*
<Shiva`> And what you did to us isn't?
* Ensign6`3 looks over to Shiva, and suddenly, he's standing before her, "You're alright, unharmed. Whats the problem?"
<Katrina`> You...you humiliated us!
* Katrina` looks angry.
<Raistlin`> ... You used us as puppets..
<Cardinal> Thanks for the chance to tell off my 20th century history professor, though. *snickers a bit*
<Shiva`> You toyed with us...but for what reason?
* Ensign6`3 glances at Katrina, then to Raist, "...Well..true. But you have to admit, it was pretty funny."
<Thedda> ... I suppose I won't go on about how much I enjoyed having my body back.
<Katrina`> Funny?!!? *walks up and slaps at his face*
<Shiva`> I think it'd be funny if we blasted that anomaly.
<Garland> NRP: Go on about it!
* Ensign6`3 's head is smacked to the side. He blinks, then looks back to her, "...Alright, maybe I deserved that. But YOU all invaded MY space."
* Katrina` pauses, lowering her hand. She still seems to be fuming.
<Cardinal> He has a point. *yawns* Thanks for making a decision about our course without contacting me, by the way.
<Raistlin`> ...he does have us there..
<Ensign6`3> And I dont get many visitors around here..
<Thedda> .... *doesn't say anything to Cardinal's comment*
<Shiva`> We were curious as to what it was out there. You made the first motion as a threat.
* Ensign6`3 looks to Shiva, "Please refrain from talking again. I don't like you."
<Shiva`> And I don't like you either.
* Ensign6`3 frowns, "Now that wasnt very nice."
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *clucks like a chicken, walking around*
* Shiva` brush's her hair back behind her back
* Katrina` turns her back on 6.3, mad.
<Shiva`> Either was coming on this ship without our permission.
* Raistlin` looks towards the screen as the anomaly cloud becomes fully visable and starts to warp itself around them
<Ensign6`3> One ill turn deserves another, Miss.
<Shiva`> I advise you withdraw.
<Cardinal> ...Ok, you've had your fun. Get off my ship, and we'll get out of your area. Fair enough?
* Ensign6`3 raises an eyebrow, "Really? You're in no position to advise anything."
* Ensign6`3 glances at Cardinal, then back to Shiva.
<Raistlin`> Umm.. i think he doesn`t want us to leave...
<Katrina`> *fume fume fume*
* Ensign6`3 points at Raist, "Bingo! Get the man a gold star."
<Shiva`> Skippy, begin charging the weapons.
<Katrina`> Skippy: The weapons are ready to fire anytime.
<Shiva`> Cardinal, give him the word.
* Thedda sits quietly... too deep in thought to say anything.
<Cardinal> Shiva, stop doing my fucking job.
* Shiva` continues to eye Ensign 6.3, not droppign her gaze
<Cardinal> ...Listen, what do you want?
* Ensign6`3 looks at Ensign 2, "Ensign, diasble the main computer."
<Katrina`> NRP: 6.3 To kill you. Cardinal: Oh.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: Aye aye! *salutes, then disables Skippy*
<Katrina`> Ensign 1: ... now that's just wrong, 2!
* Ensign6`3 looks back to Cardinal, "Just to chat...play a little. I'm so bored, out here on my lonesome.
<Shiva`> Ensign 1, bring Skippy back online.
<Katrina`> Ensign 1: Aye aye. *does so*
<Katrina`> Skippy: Thanks! Wheew.
* Ensign6`3 smiles, "Ensign 1, I believe you've forgotten how to work your console."
<Katrina`> Ensign 1: ... dammit, where's my buttons!? *runs out screaming*
<Shiva`> Skippy, lock out all console commands besides from Cardinal.
* Ensign6`3 looks to Shiva, "So, what shall we play?
<Cardinal> ...Some of your fun, I'm assuming...
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *disables him before he can*
* Raistlin` moves towards the weapons control as he checks them over and tries to lock onto the core of the anomily
<Ensign6`3> Ensign 2, draw your side arm.
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *complies*
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: This isn't good...
<Ensign6`3> Now, put it to Ensign 3's temple.
<Cardinal> NRP: <Cardinal> Hey! The ensigns are MY bitches, not yours!
<Shiva`> ...*raises her hand and fires an ice blast at Ensign 2's hand
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: HEY!
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: *does so, his hand turning to ice as he swings it his way*
* Ensign6`3 shys away from the sudden blast of Shiva.
<Ensign6`3> Hey, now. I believe thats cheating.
<Katrina`> Ensign 5: This is bad...
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: *dives behind the console*
<Shiva`> What about cowardice? What being must have others do his dirty work.
* Raistlin` fires at the core of the animily, making 6.3 fluxuate for a moment
* Ensign6`3 blinks and staggers back, "D-dont do that..."
<Katrina`> GM: *Gavin's Warship appears outside the Aquarius, arming it's weapons*
* Shiva` darts forward and tries tackling Ensign 6.3
* Ensign6`3 is tackled to the floor, "Whoops!"
<Katrina`> Captain! ...G-Gavin's back!
* Katrina` looks at the readings.
<Cardinal> ...No, he's not.
<Katrina`> But, aren't we outside the anomaly now?
* Ensign6`3 looks at Shiva, who's ontop of him, "...Lucky me."
* Shiva` head butts him
* Cardinal facepalms
<Cardinal> I should've stayed in bed.
* Ensign6`3 's nose shatters and blood sprays.
<Thedda> Remind me why I thought coming here was a good idea.
<Ensign6`3> ..Urk..you break it, you bought it.
<Katrina`> Ensign 1: *runs back in* MY BUTTONS!
<Shiva`> You wanna play?!
<Shiva`> *heads butts him again*
<Katrina`> Gavin's ship: *fires on the Aquarius, tearing out a hull section since the shields were never raised*
<Raistlin`> Fuck.. *rases sheilds*
* Katrina` stumbles!
* Ensign6`3 flashes out of existance, letting Shiva's head hit Mr Floor. He appears atop the back of the captain's chair, smiling.
<Katrina`> GM: *lights flicker. Power loss seems to be occurring from the direct hit*
<Cardinal> ...Not funny, 6.3! Raise the shields and put the ship on red alert!
<Ensign6`3> Apologize.
* Ensign6`3 gestures to his ruined nose.
<Katrina`> GM: *red alert goes off, though it sounds slurred. It seems somethign important was hit*
* Cardinal looks up, staring at 6.3
* Shiva` grabs her head and sits down
<Cardinal> At least tell me if that's your doing...
<Ensign6`3> Maybe, maybe not. Either way, I can probably end it.
* Katrina` screetches, throwing herself at 6.3 like a wildcat.
<Katrina`> Gavin's Ship: *keeps firing, pounding the shielsd*
* Ensign6`3 blink and vanishes again, letting Kat soar thru the air where he was. He appears standing on the tactical display.
* Raistlin` fires back
* Shiva` stands up
<Cardinal> ...Comforting... listen, you've had your fun. We stay, we die.
* Katrina` lands on the consoles in front of the captain's chair, knocking her breath out.
<Ensign6`3> Correction, Miss Captain. We stay, you die.
* Raistlin` looks up at 6.3
<Cardinal> I wasn't including you in "we."
<Shiva`> Cardinal, drop several cluster missiles into the anomaly
* Ensign6`3 's eyes flash, "NO!"
<Cardinal> One more word out of you, little lady, and I'll have you thrown in the brig for insubordination.
<Katrina`> Gavin's Ship: *takes slight damage. It fires some nova impactors into the shields, destroying them*
* Cardinal clenches a fist
<Cardinal> Let it have it, Raist.
<Ensign6`3> No! Wait-!
<Shiva`> Get rid of Gavin's ship then.
<Katrina`> GM: *the ship vanishes*
* Cardinal stares up, hand now on her sword's hilt
<Cardinal> WHAT?
<Shiva`> ....
* Raistlin` loads the cluster missiles and his finger hovers over the button..
<Katrina`> GM: *2 dozen anomalies appear in their place*
<Katrina`> GM: *all look the same*
* Ensign6`3 smiles, "New game."
<Thedda> Uuuuh???
* Katrina` pulls herself off the console, coughing painfully as she holds her stomach.
* Ensign6`3 appears by Thedda, laying in midair beside her, propt up on an elbow, "Hey good lookin'."
<Thedda> .... *eyes the 6.3 * ... uuh, hi.
<Ensign6`3> You want your body back?
<Ensign6`3> Infact, you want EVERYTHING you've ever wanted?
<Katrina`> Don't...*wheeze* listen to him...
* Thedda moves back slightly... her eyes widen when she hears body.. "Well.. wouldn't anybody?"
<Garland> NRP: Do you want what you want?
<Thedda> NRP: roflmao.
<Cardinal> Thedda, your body is almost finished. Don't listen to him.
<Katrina`> GM: *suddenly, Shiva's hit by a...VISION!*
<Ensign6`3> Thats very true..
<Thedda> Why are you asking me this?
* Shiva` drops to the ground, grabbing her head
<Ensign6`3> I just want to help you..
<Katrina`> GM: *in the vision....the 20 anomalies begin to vanish one by one*
<Thedda> ... What do you want in return?
<Katrina`> GM: *Thedda's body returns. She's in a white ball gown*
* Ensign6`3 smiles, "You like?"
*** X1 has joined #taw
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o X1
* Thedda looks down at her body in the elegant gown. "Oh my goodness... My body.. and look at this dress!" She twirls around, a smile appearing on her face.
* Shiva` push's herself up, she stands there staring into space
<Katrina`> GM: *only ten anomalies are left now*
<Katrina`> GM: *5...*
<Katrina`> GM: *then, in her vision, she sees...the REAL One*
* Raistlin` grumbles as he looks towards 6.3 "Look... We need to get on with our mission, we can help you be less lonely if you let us go..
<Katrina`> GM: *Cardinal appears as a Tsivrixsh*
<Thedda> ... What is this for???
* Ensign6`3 ignores Raist, staring at Thedda, "You want to keep it? Kill the Tsivrixsh scum.."
* Shiva` walks over to the weapons console and begins tapping things into it
<Thedda> I....
<Cardinal> ...Now that's creative.
* Thedda looks up at the Tsiv.
<Raistlin`> .... *blinks as he is pushed aside*
<Cardinal> NRP: <Cardinal> *stabs herself*
<Katrina`> GM: *Card speaks Tsivrixsh to Thedda*
<Shiva`> Cardinal, permission to fire.
* Ensign6`3 smiles at Thedda,
<Ensign6`3> nrp: er .
<Cardinal> Go for it.
<Ensign6`3> They've murdered worlds...
<Ensign6`3> Kill it.
<Thedda> ....I.. *looks so confused, her eyes shift quickly back and forth, obviously the thought of a body and killing her captain is so overwhelming*
<Ensign6`3> And you have live in the fantasy you've always wanted...
* Katrina` grabs Thedda in a bear hug
<Katrina`> Don't!
<Shiva`> Game Over Ensign 6.3...*locks onto the real Anomaly and fires off a round of Cluster Missiles*
* Raistlin` grouls as one of his personalities take over and he goes to punch Shiva` in the gut before she fires
<Katrina`> GM: *Shiva is stopped from firing!*
* Thedda kick at Kat's knee and pulls Kats hands from around her. "LET ME GO"
* Ensign6`3 blinks and looks to Shiva, "Or not, little missy."
<Katrina`> It's our -AAH! *cries out as she's kicked*
<Ensign6`3> Ensigns? Detain the lovely Katrina.
<Katrina`> Ensigns: *grab Kat's arms, pulling her away*
<Katrina`> Don't DO it!
<Thedda> *Tears begin to cover her face and her mind runs a million miles an hour.* .... I won't do it....
* Shiva` keels over*
<Thedda> She's my captain, and I will forever protect her.
* Shiva` coughs
<Katrina`> GM: *The Tsivrixsh captain seems...like it wants to kil Thedda!*
* Ensign6`3 holds up a hand, and one of the ensigns side arms floats over to him, and hangs in mid air infront of Thedda*
* Cardinal fights a similar mental battle now, her hand gripped tightly on her sword
* Shiva` reaches up towards the the console again
<Ensign6`3> It's not your captain anymore, Thedda...You've been lied too. This is a Tsiv warship. You've been a prisoner for 3 months now, undergoing re-education. I've freed you."
* Raistlin` goes to grap Shiva`s arm before she can get to the console
* Katrina` struggles.
<Cardinal> ...You're... not going to win, 6.3! There's no way in HELL you're going to turn me against me crew! *throws the sword at him*
<Cardinal> NRP: Arr
* Thedda stands still, her whole body trembling...
<Katrina`> GM: *Thedda sees the Tsivrixsh xvash fly at her head*
* Shiva` growls and grabs Raistlins crotch, her touch freezing
* Thedda falls to the ground, covering her head.
<Cardinal> .oO{Bad idea, Hwenira! THINK!}
* Katrina` screams out of frustration, trying to kick the Ensigns.
* Ensign6`3 vanishes again, appear on the otherside of Thedda, his voice a whisper in her ear, "They've done horrible things to do...touched you...violated you...studied you.."
<Katrina`> GM: *scars appear on Thedda's neck and arms*
* Cardinal dives for the weapons console and tries to fire the weaponry
<Shiva`> LET ME GO!!!!
* Raistlin` 's body burts into flames as she goes to grabe his crotch, he moves his leg slightly as she does grab his inner thigh, tho his body is on fire.. he lowers his hand towards Shiva as a ball of fire forms before her face
* Thedda looks up and turns to the voice, as she does this, she notices the scars on her arms. ".... No they didn't. YOU LIE!!! LIES!!!"
<Katrina`> GM: *with Raistlin vs. Shiva going on, Cardinal is unhampered!*
* Ensign6`3 's eyes flare, "YOU have been lied too, Thedda. This has all been in your head...really, look at the past events. Do you really think the Aquarius would have survived this long with such a ragtag crew?"
*** Miggs has joined #taw
* Ensign6`3 blinks and turns to Cardinal
<Katrina`> GM: *the console vanishes*
* Cardinal slams her hand into the console, firing the weapons at what she hopes is the true anomaly
* Cardinal instead slams her hand into the floor
<Cardinal> ...Cheap shot.
* Thedda stumbles to her feet and looks at 6.3 "What are you talking about.... ?? I needed them, they didn't need me...."
* Shiva` growls and tries to pick Raistlin up
* Katrina` frees herself from the ensigns, kneeing them in the groin.
* Katrina` draws the DS' saber.
* Katrina` activates it, spins it, and leaps at 6.3
<Raistlin`> *pause*
<Katrina`> NRP: *Kat does a matrix pause in mid air* Kat: WOOO! Special effects!
<Thedda> NRP: LOL!!!
<Cardinal> NRP: Crap, there goes our special effects budge.
<Ensign6`3> NRP: *Camera rotates around her*
<Cardinal> NRP: And the budget, too.
<Raistlin`> .oO(What am i doing? why am i fighting a crewmate.. *sees zero in control of his body* i see... there is no stoping them.. i can`t let one take more domanace over the others.. the memories.. AH... ) *stumbles back letting Shiva go*
<Raistlin`> *resume*
* Katrina` slashes as she moves at 6.3.
* Thedda holds her shoulders, making an X with her arms.... "They wouldn't do this to me... They care for me... Right?"
<Katrina`> Ensign 1: THE BUTTONS! *runs by again*
* Ensign6`3 blinks as the sword connects with his chest. But, suddenly he's gone. Floating above Katrina, "Ensigns, KILL KATRINA."
* Shiva` shoves Raistlin backwards
<Katrina`> Ensigns: *open fire on Kat*
* Cardinal quickly moves between Katrina and the ensigns, taking a couple of shots
* Katrina` blinks, holding up her saber to try and block some attacks. She's not that skilled and shots begin to connect.
* Ensign6`3 appears beside Thedda, wrapping his arms around her, "Think, Thedda..a floating head? Would you have really survived such a ordeal?"
<Cardinal> GAAAH! LOOK AT YOURSELVES! KNOCK THIS OFF!
<Katrina`> ...Captain!
<Katrina`> Ensigns: *sorta pause*
<Ensign6`3> They have violated your mind, Thedda..
<Cardinal> Think about what you're doing! Don't let this guy control you! Remember, you're MY bitches, not his!
* Raistlin` falls to the floor
<Ensign6`3> For that, they deserve nothing less than death...right?
* Cardinal smirks
<Katrina`> Ensigns: You're right, Captain!
* Thedda stretches her head backwards to look at 6.3 .. "They..... have?"
* Shiva` turns and runs towards a side door
* Katrina` glances at the console. She runs forward and reaches out her hand, slapping something.
* Katrina` feels on the invisible console
<Katrina`> IT's here, Captain!
* Ensign6`3 smiles, his tone smooth, "Yes...kill the Tsirv bastards..." *He points to Katrina, "Ensigns! stop her!"
<Katrina`> Ensigns: We're the Captain's bitch! *fire at 6.3*
<Katrina`> GM: *the console suddenly bursts into flames*
* Katrina` stumbles back, eyes widening.
* Cardinal holds her bleeding arm
* Shiva` spins around and runs, leaping onto a chair and off it, right towards the back of Ensign 6.3
* Ensign6`3 frowns, the shots peppering his chest, letting blood splurt. "Useless fools."
* Thedda uncrosses her arms from underneath 6.3's arms, and places them softly on top of his. "Human touch.. without blood.. How nice..." A smile appears on Thedda's face. A happiness nobody has seen on her before.
<Cardinal> .oO{This is going to hurt...}
* Ensign6`3 whispers into Thedda's ear, "Kill them all, Thedda...kill them all..."
* Cardinal flies to the console and, despite it being on fire, tries to find the fire command
<Thedda> ... But.... no weapons.
<Shiva`> NRP: Did I tackle him or not?
* Raistlin` gets up as he sees the burning controls he moves towards and moves his hands throught the fire to the button as well if Cardinal fails
*** Alicia has quit IRC (Quit: Reboot. BRB)
* Ensign6`3 blinks and turns his head to Cardinal, "Now, Thedda! KILL HER!-!" *Shiva slams into his back, most likey knocking Thedda and himself to the floor.*
<Cardinal> *grits her teeth* .oO{Hot... hot... hot... HOT! Where the hell is it!? GAH!} GAH! *stumles back*
* Shiva` quickly begins to release ice blasts into whatever his hands are touching
<Katrina`> GM: *despite the pain, Raist hits the fire button*
<Katrina`> Aquarius: *launches the missiles at the anomaly*
* Ensign6`3 suddenly looks up at the console, "NO! NO!!!"
<Cardinal> ...Suck on it.
* Thedda smacks onto the floor, face first.. Oil slowly drips down her upper lip as she looks up.
<Katrina`> GM: *the missiles slam into the anomaly cloud. At first, nothing, then a bright light as the explosions detonate.*
* Ensign6`3 grabs his head and shrieks writhing on the ground.
* Shiva` stands up, letting go of the two
* Katrina` looks at the explosion.
* Shiva` looks down at Ensign 6.3
* Thedda covers her head with her arms in fear.
<Katrina`> GM: *Thedda's body begins to vanish, except for her head*
<Shiva`> This could've been avoided...But you brought this upon yourself.
<Cardinal> Now who's the bitch, asshole.
<Katrina`> GM: *suddenly, the bigger explosion and the traditional shockwave*
*** Alicia has joined #TAW
* Ensign6`3 lifts into the air, still screaming. Slowly. he phases out of view, his screaming echoing for a moment..then, silence.
<Katrina`> GM: *Thedda's boy vanishes completely*
* Shiva` drops down into a sitting position
<Katrina`> *body, too
* Raistlin` rases the sheilds again to try and protect the ship
* Katrina` leans against a console, panting. All damage to the ship vanishes. It seems it was never damaged*
* Cardinal stands there, blood seeping through her fingers and the hole where a shot hit her leg
*** Ensign6`3 is now known as Vile
<Cardinal> NRP: The hole in her robe, that is
* Thedda 's head rolls face up. She doesn't have to look down to realize her beloved body is once again gone. She hovers a few inches from the floor, then returns to the floor upright.
<Katrina`> Ensign 3: That was fun.
* Cardinal collapses into the captain's chair
<Katrina`> Ensign 2: I saw Cardinal's titties.
<Shiva`> Is that thing...gone?
<Raistlin`> ... That was intersting...
<Cardinal> It's not like you're the first... *yawns*
<Katrina`> I'll be in my quarters. *Walks out*
<Garland> NRP: I suddenly have John Cleese flashbacks.
* Shiva` watches Kat walk out
* Thedda 's eyes are staring off somewhere, as tears roll down her face and motor oil smears on her lips and she licks them. She doesn't say or do anything, but just stays there.
<Raistlin`> *Session ends*
