<DeathStar> The Alien Wars: A Lonely Place of Dying
<DeathStar> Stardate: 2180
<DeathStar> Location: Hunter Station
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Have you ever had one of those dreams that feel real? As if you were really there? I rarely have those dreams, mostly because my past isn't something I have a desire to relive often. You could say that there's no much in my life that I could call happy. So, imagine my surprise when I go to sleep in jail, and wake up back here.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar walks along the hallway of the station, his robotic body taking him some getting use to again. He pauses, noting it must be a night cycle, as the lights are dimmed. He steps into the command center, expecting there to be no one there in his dream sequence.
* Chad`Winters is now known as Slasher
* Alicia is now known as Terra
* Angela is now known as Seraphna
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Seraphna
<DeathStar> Song: A Place Called Home
* Slasher sits in one of the chairs, leaned back and his legs up. His head rests awkwardly as he sleeps.
* Seraphna snoozes on her back, a wing flapping, the other draped over a screen which in most likelyhood is the most important one there.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Being here is strange - it's been so long ago. This war was only a short time, a little over a year, but it was ... life changing. As I gazed across and stared at those present in the command center, I felt a longing in my robotic guts that I hadn't felt in a long time ago. It was a simplier time and I felt like a young child again, reunited with friends that I hadn't seen forever.
<Ariel> 6* Cheryl sits in the command center, in front of a terminal with a game of Solitare open... dozed off in the middle of the game.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Things were easy then. So much easier than they are now. No shades of grey, and you know where you belonged. With your comrades.
<DeathStar> What are you all doing up this late?
* Slasher snorts and falls out of his chair clumisly. 1"Huh?"
<Ariel> 6* Cheryl zzzzzzzzzz...
<DeathStar> 6* He raises his voice to gently wake his friends.
* Seraphna blinks and opens her eyes, hopping up. "Mmm? I-I wasn't napping I was... huh?"
* DeathStar waves his hands, shaking his head
<DeathStar> Don't you all have rooms?
<Slasher> I...locked myself out. Again.
<Seraphna> Ariel mumbles. *yawns*
<DeathStar> You're such an idiot. At this rate, you'll never amount to anything.
* Ariel steps onto the bridge, and takes a step back, seeing DS there. She makes herself around the edge of the room to check on her sister.
* Slasher rubs the back of his head as he glances over at Cheryl then back at DS. 1"That's not true."
* DeathStar glances at Ariel, and feels a twinge in his heart
* Seraphna flaps up and flies, landing on Ariel's shoulder.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Ariel. When did I begin to love her? I don't even know anymore. This is my Ariel. I care deeply for the Ariel I know now, in the body of the man known as Darien Starr, but she's not her. Not her at all.
* Slasher jumps back as he eyes Seraphna. 1"I'll never get used to that flying rat..."
<Seraphna> "I am not a rat!" *grabs her mouth and raspberries at Slasher*
<DeathStar> Flying cat. 6 He corrects.
* Ariel sighs, "Baby dragon." She corrects, and tries to shake Cheryl awake.
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
<Seraphna> "Yes, dragon! Cats just look like me."
<DeathStar> Whatever.
<Ariel> 6* Cheryl yawns, and falls off her chair. Clang! "...owww."
<Slasher> Rat. It has a tail.
* Seraphna raspberries again.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> My God, this all seems so real. The sights, the sounds. The master computer.
<Slasher> Ariel, she better have her shots. 6He motions to Seraphna as he looks at Cheryl.
* DeathStar moves over to the viewport, to look out at the shadowed side of Earth below.
* Ariel picks up the robot clone of herself, slinging her arm over her shoulder. "Hey... Cheryl's the doctor, not me."
* DeathStar snorts at that.
<Seraphna> "I'm not an animal..." *she pouts and clings to Ariel's shoulder*
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Doctor of destruction, maybe.
<Ariel> 6* Cheryl looks around groggily, "...docwaha...?"
* Slasher glances away as Cheryl looks around. He moves over to DS. 1"What are you doing up so late?"
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> I should have known right then that this dream was more important than some trippy flashback to better days. There is never such things free in life. This moment here would lead me on a path that would lead me to my final fate.
<DeathStar> I don't know. Something told me I should wake up.
<Ariel> "...that DS is a machine. He never sleeps."
* Ariel pauses, realizing what she said, "Um... No pun intended. Honest..."
<Seraphna> "Nightmares? Slasher's face can do that."
<DeathStar> None taking. Being a machine isn't so bad, really.
<Slasher> Reploids sleep. Right? 6He looks at turns to SEraphna. 1"Don't make me get you spaded."
<DeathStar> So, rednecks, any reports on the Mavericks?
<Seraphna> "How much of a lightning shock would it take to fry a reploid again?"
* Slasher shrugs. 1"I'm not a reploid, how would I know?"
<Seraphna> "You're all the same to me."
* DeathStar sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Wow. Did I learn that habit from those two?
* Seraphna flaps a bit and settles on Ariel's shoulder, her tail brushing some of Ari's hair.
* Ariel hangs her head. She always was stuck in the center of this.
<Slasher> Uh..6He looks back at DS. 1"Nothings been beeping like it normally does when they make a move."
<DeathStar> Great. Did we get a new shipment of shuttles in?
<Slasher> Ummm...6He steps back and looks at a computer, hitting buttons as he fumbles to find out.
<Ariel> Cheryl> "...didn't they crash all those already...?"
<DeathStar> EarthGov should just send me a steady supply.
<Seraphna> "Can't we ever learn to land one?"
<Slasher> I think so...6He scratches his head.
<Seraphna> "Just once?"
<DeathStar> If I landed one, we'd always be late to save the day. Honestly.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> I still wreck them. Maybe because I miss these days
<Ariel> Cheryl> "...hey... you should let me fly some time... I could probally be a good pilot..."
* Slasher shudders.
* Ariel gives her sister a disbelieving look
<DeathStar> I don't know. Can Ariel fly?
* DeathStar pauses, hearing a bell. Strangely, no one else seems to react to it. He glances around.
* Seraphna flaps up and glides to DS's shoulder. "I can fly... just not a shuttle..."
* Ariel shrinks back, with the attention on her. "Well..."
<DeathStar> Did anyone hear that?
<Slasher> GAH! 6He leaps back as he see's Seraphna flying again. 1"That's creepy. Knock ito ff."
<Ariel> "...maybe you need sleep, DS."
<Seraphna> "It's not creepy! I've always been able to do it. You do that... walking thing."
* DeathStar turns and sees child Garland standing there. No one else sees him, though
<Slasher> Rather well if I might say. 6He walks about then trips, slamming face first onto the floor
* Seraphna giggles and points.
<DeathStar> 6* The child Garland puts a finger to his lips, and begins to move off to the records room. DeathStar pauses, then follows.
* Slasher pushes himself up as he rubs his face. 1"Stupid shoe-laces."
* Seraphna blinks and gets carried off.
* DeathStar moves into the records room, turning on the lights. Child Garland moves over to the computer, pointing at a button. Following, DeathStar stares
<DeathStar> You shouldn't be here.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> He shouldn't. Garland was an adult by now
* Seraphna looks at the monitor.
* DeathStar hits a button, then follows Child garland's commands, hitting more buttons.
<Seraphna> "Whatcha doin DS?"
<DeathStar> 6* The files for the very first mission come up - the Hyper Trap mission. A layout of the station able to sustain itself constantly in hyperspace pops up, along with the coordinates. Child Garland points to it.
<DeathStar> I remember this.
* Seraphna flaps a little, reading.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> How could I not? It was our first mission as the new Maverick Hunters. Vile had set up a station in hyperspace itself. A trap to lure us in. Only ships, using special modulating shields, could transverse hyperspace, by using it to go from one point to another. This station, however, defyed that and stayed in one spot.
<Seraphna> "Yikes this is way before Ariel brought me here."
<DeathStar> Song: Closing In - Event Music
<DeathStar> This was way before Ariel.
<Seraphna> "...Wow... so why the old files?"
<DeathStar> I don't know . 6* He looks at Child Garland, who points urgently toward it again.
<DeathStar> 6* Bells again. From the main room.
* DeathStar turns, then walks toward the main room again.
* Seraphna looks around where DS does. Scratching her tiny head.
* Seraphna rides!
<DeathStar> Everything okay in here, guys?
* Slasher looks at DS oddly. 1"Yeah...shouldn't it be?"
<DeathStar> .... ....
<Seraphna> "You feeling okay? Maybe you should take more naps."
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> And then, at that moment, the strangest question popped into my mind
<DeathStar> Say. What would you all say is the most important thing to you in the whole universe?
* Seraphna blinks at the question, thinking from her perch. "My friends?"
<Slasher> I...a sandwich? 6He scratches his head confused.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Why did I ask that? Seeing Garland again, as a child? I hadn't thought of Garland in years. He was a tiny child who grew quickly, as Chiere did. And I thought of him as a son. Our battles together, the losses we shared. Saving Sharlena from Crucifixtion. But Garland died long time ago, as did everyone from my past. So why - why am I thinking about him now? I didn't know.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> But I knew that the Hyper Trap was key somehow. In some way. I had to get there.
<DeathStar> I'm taking a shuttle.
<Slasher> To go to?
<DeathStar> The middle of nowhere.
* Seraphna flaps a wing, yawning a little, curling up.
* Slasher glances around the room. 1"By yourself?
* DeathStar turns again, hearing the bells. Standing in the doorway to the master control room is Crucifixtion. With a ribbon in his hair. DeathStar finds himself doing a double take.
<DeathStar> <Crucifixtion> Well, well.
<DeathStar> 6* And this time, all see him.
<DeathStar> Song: Vergil Battle
* Seraphna blinks, looking up. "Y-You!"
* Slasher pauses then stares, steping back. 1"...Crucifixtion..."
* DeathStar pulls out his DS sabre, activating it.
<DeathStar> <Crucifixtion> I've been waiting to settle the score with you Hunters.
* Slasher pulls his Ion Blade from his back and he ignites it. 1"Why are you wearing a ribbon?"
<DeathStar> 6* Crucifixtion fires a powerful blast straight for Slasher, aiming to kill him.
* Slasher leaps off to the side, rolling.
<DeathStar> 6* The blast slams through the station wall, tearing a hole into space.
* DeathStar stares, then jams his sabre into the ground.
<Slasher> Ahhh crap...6He drives his blade into the ground.
* Seraphna grips onto DS.
<DeathStar> <Crucifixtion> HA HA HA HA HA. 6* He gives off a classic villain laugh as the air is sucked out
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Ah, the villains of old. Hams.
* DeathStar turns his head in time to see Ariel and Cheryl get sucked out into space.
<DeathStar> NO!
* Slasher turns back, his mouth opening. 1"Shit."
<Seraphna> "A-ARIEL!!!"
* DeathStar rips his sabre out of the ground, turning and throwing himself for the rip in the station hull
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-587.12.11
<DeathStar> Location: Tokyo, Japan - Jail Cell
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slams onto the metal floor of his cell.
* Slasher is now known as Chad`Winters
* Seraphna is now known as Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up, glancing around, when suddenly a dark arm grabs him from behind, attempting to choke him. He panics and slams his back into cell wall.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Dark Ones. In my cell? Now I knew something wasu p.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs his shiv and stabs it into the Dark One's head.
<DeathStar> 6* He steps back, watching it dissolve away, rubbing his throat
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Whatever was going on, I had to get to that location in my dream. To the Hyper Trap. And there's only one person who could help me do that right now. Only one person I trust to have the smarts to break the law.
<DeathStar> 6* Later, during visiting hours
<DeathStar> Angela. 6* He shifts forward to lean across the table.
* Angela looks at him quietly. "You're serious today... what's up?"
<DeathStar> Would it be possible for your Beta Montana to break through the outer walls of my cell wall, and get me out of prison? As soon as I go back?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at her seriously.
* Angela looks around using only her eyes, not moving her head. "I... well..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's important.
* Angela closes her eyes, and something slides along the floor and touches Darien's shoe.
<Angela> "Step on it."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts his foot over it.
<Angela> "Everyone knows Montana's an experimental AI, he's prone do to all sorts of crazy things."
<DeathStar> Song: Coliseium
<DeathStar> <Darien> A shame.
<Angela> "Yeah..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thank you. 6* He leans over and kisses her on the forehead, and stands up.
* Angela blushes a little.
<Angela> "Good luck..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You too
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns and lets himself get led back to his cell
* Angela heads out herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps into his cell, holding out his arms and has them uncuffed. He rubs his wrists.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Thank God Dark Ones don't leave bodies. I'd hate to explain that to the guards.
<Angela> * There's a loud, resounding thud outside.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns toward the cell wall.
<Angela> * The cell wall is ripped right off the building, a large, black metallic creature stands there, looking like a big mechanical dark one.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien dashes forward and lands on Montana; the prison alarms are going off.
<Angela> * Monata blasts into the sky, flying off.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Angela, godbless your insane soul.
<DeathStar> Time Chart: That night
<DeathStar> Location: Erevis' Pad
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis and Megumi are sleep in the bed. Megumi would find herself in an unnaturally deep sleep.
* Chad`Winters sits across from Aya, several cards held in his hand.
<Marcus`> 6*A shadowy figures, slips along the living room, silent a death.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
<Marcus`> 6*The figures, upon reaching Erevis' door, slips inside, slowly moving towards her bed, once he reaches it it would lean forward. "Erevis." He whispers light and slow towards her ear.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stirs slightly.
<Marcus`> <Figure> Look at you. So peaceful. So calm. It's been quite some time. *the figure whispers* Are you dreaming? Are they dreams of me?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes slightly, clearly still half asleep.
<Marcus`> <Figure> Shhh. *the figures reaches out slowly* It's alright, everything will be better soon.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Xan...?
<Marcus`> <Figure> Oh Erevis. *the figure sighs softly, leaning in and giving her a kiss on the lips* It's been oh so long. *it speaks softly as it pulls away*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I've...missed you...
<Marcus`> <Figure of Xan?> I know. I've missed you too. But don't worry. We'll be together...very soon.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods slowly, closing her eyes again
* Jackieness is now known as Cassandra`
<Marcus`> *The figure pauses, directed to Megumi, it stands there for moments. Then slips away.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits in the passenger seat of Angela's car as she drives them to the Arakawa residence. He's shaving his face as she drives, talking on a hololink comm. to his lawyer
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just tell them I got kidnapped.
* Megumi is now known as Kit
* X1 is now known as X3
* Angela doesn't speak, concentrating on the side of her that knows how to drive.
* X3 pounds her fist on a table, somewhere.
<X3> What the hell do youm ean my client was 'kidnapped'?!
<X3> He's not a kid, and he doesn't nap!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts a hand over the speaker. "You think this is why I stayed in six months longer than I was suppose to?"
* Angela pulls up at the residence. "Probably."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien removes his hand. "Tell them I got out early for good behavior."
<DeathStar> <Darien> This is why you never hire relatives of a friend.
* Angela shakes her head, turning off the car. "Not your fault a giant 'Dark One' descided to attack your cell."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nice touch, by the way.
* Angela undoes her safety belt. "Thanks."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes the comm with him.
<DeathStar> 6* Getting out of the car, Darien eyes the lights in the Arakawa residence. He clips the comm to his belt so X3 can bitch at him.
* Angela gets out with him and fixes her jacket. "She shouldn't be surprised by me being here, I'm supposed to check on her arm."
* X3 turns back to the comm. "They're saying something about 'adding' and 'abaiting'"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tell them you're offended that they think you're a giant Dark One.
<X3> And I think one of these cops is kinky, he wants to put me in cuffs and 'take me downtown'.
<Angela> "Have fun girl."
* Angela rings the doorbell.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Listen, if they do take you downtown, go peacefully, and tell them your life story. I guarentee they won't want to do anything to you then
<X3> They're not buying it, they say I don't look African American.
* Cassandra` opens the door, clad in a kimono...
<Cassandra`> ... ... ... *starts closing it again*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tell them that Whitey will never keep you down.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds out his hand to hold the door open. "I have to talk to Billy."
* Angela smiles to Cass. Noticing how odd Cass looks with the cybrog parts in a kimono, but shows no sign of it.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna approaches Darien and Angela from behind with giant sheers.
<X3> They want to know why I keep talking into a flower.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Okay. Scream and run out of the room now, X3. Call me again later if you get into troubler.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks the comm off.
<Cassandra`> Fine...stay out of sight...they're already pinging the town looking for you.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, slipping inside.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Could learn to be discrete for once..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> No time.
<Cassandra`> ...come in the back door next time too...
* Angela pulls out a kit. "And you Cass, diagnostic time."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy walks down the stairs, wearing her black dress tonight.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien does a Warren grunt to Cassandra, turning to face Billy.
<Cassandra`> ...fine...my room...why did you have to put it someplace like that I don't want to know... *walks to her room*
<Angela> "Your side?"
* Angela walks with her.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at Billy, watching Cassandra go. Billy watches as well, then looks at Darien. Darien pulls out a paper with the coordinates of the station from the original TAW. Billy lets out an audible gasp.
<DeathStar> <Darien> What's here, Billy?
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna glances at the paper.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy pauses, then sits down slowly, staring at Darien, visiblely surprised. "How'd you find that?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> A bird told me. After I got a hold of that, a Dark One tried to kill me. What's there, Billy?
* Angela comes back out after a few seconds. "That wasn't so bad, now was it?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> *sighs, closing her eyes* That's a hidden location in hyperspace where the Dark Ones are harvesting all the souls of the dead.
<Angela> "...Well shit."
<Ariel> Setsuna> "......"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his face, letting out his breath
<DeathStar> <Billy> It's their most heavily guarded secret. It was where I was born.
<Angela> "So this is how they survive with the homeworld gone."
<DeathStar> <Billy> It's merely one nest of many, but an important one. All the dead souls go there and are added to a collective.
<Angela> "So we start cutting off the supply."
<DeathStar> <Billy> It is heavily guarded. No one who goes there will likely survive.
<DeathStar> <Darien> We have to go, Billy. Right away. If my dream has any portence, we can't even waste time.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Will you help guide is there?
<DeathStar> *us
* Angela blinks a moment, as though experiencing vertigo, and takes a seat. "We might need to get some help."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy cups her hands together, glancing at Cassandra and Setsuna. "Do you two...want to go there?"
<Ariel> Setsuna> *looks at Darien* "It's that urgent?"
<Angela> "He said so, so it must bed."
<Cassandra`> I feel so violated...Darien...where did you get these coordinates?
* Angela puts her head in her hand.
<DeathStar> <Darien> The Dark Ones have billions of souls. They have an army at their dispossal.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I can't explain it. But I feel that whatever the Dark Ones' master plan is, they're about to enact it
<Angela> "And for everyone they kill... they gain another."
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Alright then."
<DeathStar> <Darien> A deadly cycle that will only make them stronger.
* Angela says quietly, to herself, "I have to..."
<DeathStar> <Billy> *she looks at Cassandra now*
<Cassandra`> Sounds like of we don't make a move, it won't matter anyway...
<DeathStar> <Darien> We'll never know until we try. Better to go down trying, then to wait for them to come to us.
<X3> *X3's comm signal beeps at Darien*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up and moves back to let CAss and Sets decide. He clicks it on
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes?
<Cassandra`> I say we make a move.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy nods her head, closing her eyes. "Alright. I'll help lead you all there, then."
<X3> Yeah, hey, it's me. Yeah, the screaming and running thing worked until I ran into a door, so the guards felt sorry for me and took me to McDonald's. They want to know if you guys want a Big Mac or something.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Dammit, X3, it's a trap. Don't lead them to us!
<X3> No way, these guys are totally cool! They even bout me an apple pie!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose. "Are they staring at your flower eagerly?"
<Cassandra`> ...Setsuna...start arming up...time to evac.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy stands up. "I'll get prepared them." 6* She seems solemn, curtseys, and steps out.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps into sight, having snuck in
<X3> Let me check. *There's some conversation in the background* No, just my breats.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Well, well, Arakawa, harboring escaped convicts now.
<Angela> "oh, Darien, I should have mentioned, Warren probably has my car bugged."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just...eat your pie. 6* He clicks off.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns, aiming his hidden weapon at Warren.
<DeathStar> <Warren> A shiv, Starr?
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... ... I'll put you six feet under, man
* Angela sighs
<DeathStar> <Warren> Well, if you plan to take a trip through heavily guarded Dark One territory, it sounds like you'll need my help, Starr.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, lowering his shiv.
<Angela> "We'd be happy for it."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna goes to stock up from the armoury.
<DeathStar> <Warren> And, some people we now...
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Cassandra`> Let's get ready. *moves tk change*
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands there, with everyone amassed before him.
<DeathStar> <Warren> And that is the situation.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina rubs the side of her chin. "Huh."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is quiet, her fingers on her lips.
<Angela> * Gabby stares.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands there, his head hung down, sleeping next to Marcus.
* Chad`Winters crosses his arms as he studies Warren.
* Marcus` has his arms crossed. "Sounds like suicide to me."
<Terra> "Sounds dangerous." *doeswn't sound scared*
* Angela looks at Marcus with an odd look on her face.
<DeathStar> <Warren> More than likely.
* Marcus` glances Angela, arching a brow before looking ahead. "Do we get paid?"
<Terra> <Vyssa> "Hmm... and yet, if nothing is done, the Dark Ones will grow in power..."
<DeathStar> <Drake> *rolls his eyes at Marcus*
<Marcus`> What? *he looks to Drake* If i'm going to die, i'd better at least be expecting a pay check.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias wipes his face, wavering slightly as he sleeps.
<DeathStar> <Drake> You're a sad man.
<Ariel> "Dangerous... it sounds insane."
<Terra> "When have I ever gone for the sane?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> That's why you're being asked if you want in on this.
<Chad`Winters> We don't have much a choice. 6He leans against the wall.
* Marcus` shrugs. He elbows Dias in the stomach. "We're in."
<Cassandra`> IIts a shot in the dark if we try...a guaranteed prison shower experience if we don't.
<Angela> Jen> "Are you going Warren?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps into the room, revealing himself. "Prison's not so bad."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks awake. 1"Huh?! Yeah, we're in!" 6He pumps his fist, a confused look in his face.
<Marcus`> <Theron> We cannot just sit back and do nothing. *he said with a nod*
* Marcus` pauses, eyeing Darien. "Especially when you're not there."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien has cut his hair short and shaved his beard.
* Angela looks at Darien. "Clean up good, you know."
<DeathStar> Song: Save Tonight - Drama Music
* Chad`Winters glances at Darien. 1"Darien, I hope you got that cake I sent you."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances over at Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances up, clearly feeling some emotions tonight
<Marcus`> Alright, yay Darien is back. When do we leave?
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC leans against the side wall, her by her side.
<Kit> 6Chii leans away from the wall, having donned some kind of new-age version of a kunoichi's outfit, complete to the weapons on account of the calling. 1"Well, of course I'm going. It's my only way to get my soul back."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Leave for where? 6He looks at Marcus
* Ariel has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <Warren> AS soon as Cheryl arrives with our ride.
<Kit> 6Lilith... flails around for Raquel, who doesn't seem to be alive-- for the moment.
<Marcus`> To fight Dark Ones. *he nods, smiling*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sweet. 6He nods approvingly at Marcus and holds his hand up for a high five.
* Marcus` shrugs, and high fives Dias.
<Kit> 6Megumi is quiet for the most part. Erevis has been acting strange, if that's to hold truth to something subtle, and peers at her for a reaction.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
* Angela looks at Marcus then and sighs.
<DeathStar> <Warren> If we're lucky, this will be our final fight. You got anything you need to do, do it now
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks out
* Chad`Winters glances around the room, quickly taking everyone present
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks away from Ariel.
<Kit> <Megumi> I have heard that once before.
* Marcus` pauses and glances at Angela sighing. "What's wrong with you?"
<Kit> 6Megumi eyes Darien a little... eerily.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "If we are unlucky, it will also be our final fight."
<Angela> "It's... nothing."
* Angela looks away, apparently paying attention to Warren.
<Kit> <Chii> Way to ruin the mood, miss coldblooded.
<Cassandra`> Well, now's a good time to test out this new body..
<Terra> <Vyssa> "... I apologise."
* Chad`Winters pushes off the wall and moves over to Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs the back of his head. "Wow, Vyssa, that was depressing."
<Kit> 6Chii turns and nudges Katrina with her elbow. 1"You aren't going, are you?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr listens.
<Marcus`> *Theron looks to Myria who had been beside him, quiet. "You alright?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yeah. A girl's got to do, what a girl's got to do.
<Angela> Jen> "I'll go get my armor..."
<Kit> <Chii> You don't have a choice, unfortunately, Drake. I need you.
<Kit> 6Chii blinks and turns back to Katrina. 1"You are?"
<DeathStar> *Sadly, Myria isn't there*
* Marcus` eyes her. "Sure seems like nothing."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'll be right back. Gonna get my bag of goodies! 6He turns, dashing off.
<Angela> "We'll talk about it after the mission, alright?"
<Kit> <Megumi> Normally you would not go, Erevis, but today you seem... affected. I assume you will be going?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yep. I'll be there.
<Marcus`> *Theron was clearly mumlbling to himself. Creepy bastard.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. I desire to end this.
* Chad`Winters stops infront of Zephyr. 1"I'm guessing that even if I asked you to stay here, you wouldn't listen."
<Kit> 6Megumi makes a discontented sound and turns away, crossing her arms.
* Marcus` arches a brow. "We might die. Better get it out now."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Think I can't cut it?
<Terra> "A final fight..."
<Angela> "She's been training hard Chad."
<Chad`Winters> That's not it Zephyr. 
<Cassandra`> Setsuna?
<DeathStar> 6* Setsuna has gone brain dead momentarily.
* Chad`Winters chooses to ignore Angela. 1"I just don't want to see you get hurt, that's all."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .....
<Kit> <Megumi> I suppose you will come with me whether I liked it or not.
<Chad`Winters> Or worse. 6He rubs the back of his head.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Kit> 6Megumi turns back to Erevis. 1"Though, it seems something else is on your mind entirely."
* Angela shakes her head.
* Marcus` crosses his arms, frowning. "Or you could just keep your mouth shut and when we die, i'll never know what you wanted to say."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shakes her head. "Let us focus on the problem ahead."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... Fine. I'll stay here. 6* She stands up and walks out of the room.
* Angela looks down. "Can we go somewhere private?"
<Kit> 6Megumi punches the palm of her other hand. At this point in time, she's as good as new. 1"Mh.."
* Angela looks at Marcus again.
* Marcus` arches a brow. "Sure." He motions for her to lead the way.
* Chad`Winters runs his hand through his hair as he glances up at the cieling.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Chad. "Smooth."
* Angela heads off to a side room.
* Marcus` steps off with her.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina goes to get a few things prepared.
* Terra goes to prepare also
<Chad`Winters> I'm not good with woman. 6He sighs as he looks over at Darien.
* Angela turns and looks at him worriedly. "I ummm... I'm late."
<DeathStar> <Darien> At least you don't trip on your face anymore.
<Kit> 6Chii watches Katrina go off to set up, practically gaping, so after she leaves she gets her bearings and spots Jennifer, wandering over slowly, looming over her.
* Marcus` arches a brow. "We're here. We're not late."
<Angela> * Jen comes back out in her armor, fiddling with the helmet.
* Chad`Winters stares at Darien confused. 6"I..Ok."
<Kit> <Chii> Kid, why in the world are you coming?" 6Frowns down at Jennifer.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, everyone is caught up in a teleport beam. Except Jennifer
<Angela> * Jen's helmet makes a sad face, then she looks around. "OH damnit."
<Kit> <Chii> I rescind my previous statement." 6Glances around.
<Marcus`> Waaait. You're late?! *he pauses, glancing around at everyone*
<Terra> <Vyssa> "That was abrupt."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, glancing around as they appear on the bridge of the flagship of the Earth Fleet. Cheryl turns around in her chair to face them.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Wait, who's late?
* Angela looks down, now that everyone can hear.
* Marcus` slaps his face, looking down.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Is someone pregnant?! 6* She beams.
* Chad`Winters looks around. 1"Nice." 6He nods to Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren suddenly suckerpunches Marcus.
<Kit> <Megumi> Interesting. I have never had the chance to tamper with teleportation hardware.
* Marcus` gets hit and flies back, falling onto his ass.
<Marcus`> WHAT THE FUCK!?
* Angela blinks and looks up as Marcus gets hit.
* Chad`Winters turns to eye Warren then Marcus. He quickly eyes Angela, than groans.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy folds her legs as she sits crosslegged.
* Terra hurriedly finishes dressing, her flamepatterned leather jacket holding a number of grenades for later use
* Cassandra` pinches the bridge of her nose...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns around, confused. 1"What the hell.?"
<Kit> 6Lilith goes to sit with Billy, holding Raquel.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Well, back to the mission.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns back to Cheryl.
<Terra> "... right."
* Angela keeps her head down.
* Marcus` pulls himself up to his feet, glaring at Warren. "Fucking prick."
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus falls over from a penis zapping
<Marcus`> GAH! *he collapses*
<Kit> <Megumi> We have a mission, Mister Carmichael?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Sorry, that's a keyword, Marcus.
<Marcus`> ...well played. *he groans*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sadly, we can't use the Earth Fleet to get us there, but no one should notice if I take this baby out for a spin.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Boy aren't you guys glad I changed first than got my stuff...
* Chad`Winters moves over towards Cheryl, stopping beside her.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Cheryl. Take us to the PAX. There's something I want to do first.
<Angela> "...Is the Nazca cannon still working?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl inclines her head, then enters the coordinates.
* Marcus` pulls himself back up to his feet, moving back some slightly.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC pulls her helmet off, her hair dropping to her shoulders.
* Angela sighs, helping Marcus up. Mumbling. "Sorry..."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren debates hitting Angela in the stomach to cause a miscarriage. Any child of Marcus would be stupid
* Marcus` glances at her and frowns. "It's not your fault."
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT/TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 2 days later. PAX.
<DeathStar> Song: Ain't No Reason
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps off to look over the station, running his hand along the wall
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> It was no Hunter Station, but it felt good to run this place, even for the few months that I had it. It felt like it was a connection to my past.
* Angela walks beside Darien. "MIss it that much huh?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Marcus dangerously. His enemy.
<Cassandra`> And here we are again...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Something like that.
* Chad`Winters crosses his arms. 1"Why are we wasting our time here again?"
* Terra looks over the station herself, smiling, then glancing to DS. "Feels like home to you too?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> This place is our last, best hope, Chad.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know, you've always lacked foresight.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I could off him in his sleep if you want Warren.
* Marcus` eyes Warren back. "You watched the video. You realize I pulled out, right?" He wonders if Warren will pick up on what he's suggesting.
<DeathStar> 6 Billy skips down.
<Chad`Winters> It happens when you don't have all the answers. 6He glances around
* Terra grins, hearing that last bit
<DeathStar> <Darien> I have a meeting with the PAX Council. You should all come, too
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks forward, running his hand along the wall.
<Angela> "Last best hope for peace huh?"
<Chad`Winters> I see. 6He smirks slightly
<Terra> "Sure. There's no dress code, I hope."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy skips along.
<Marcus`> *Theron waits a moment then continues after Darien.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias walks through backwards.
* Terra runs a leather gloved hand against the wall as she walks. Is her entire outfit leather?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina decides to hang back.
* Marcus` just walks along.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis wanders to her old quarters
<Terra> <Vyssa> *follows quietly*
<Angela> "I had some of my best memories here... even if it was only a two week visit..."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC stands beside Kat. 1"Hi." 6She smiles at her.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hello. 6* She returns the smile
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps into the PAX Council, which is in full session, complete with Myria.
<Terra> "Hey."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren leans on a wall.
<Kit> 6Megumi follows Erevis slowly, seeming to gradually allow more distance for some reason, frowning.
<Angela> * Darce sits back in his seat, apparently the Atlean representative now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stops outside her old room, putting a gloved hand to the door
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> This council is now in order.
<Angela> * A small, familair blue Vapaad floats in the corner.
<Kit> <Chii> I have only been here a handful of times, most of which you people don't know about.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I've come to ask the council's help.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva sits in her seat, Loki beside her
<Marcus`> *Theron shifts to stand behind Myria.
<Kit> 6Chii seems to twitch slightly. 1"The last time of which I failed to get Freyja back."
* Angela looks over them all quietly.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You will have to be more descriptive Darien Starr.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> You are ready to address the PAX council, yes?
<Chad`Winters> NRP: BAKA!
* Marcus` tilts his head, glancing around.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Pretty wild huh? 6She looks at Kat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *describes the situation with the Dark Ones* As you can see, this is a galactic threat. With Earth and the Tsivrixsh Empires engaged in their war, there's no ships that can be spared, and I have no doubt the Dark Fleet is waiting there. I request - that the council lend us ships.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Pretty wild?
<Angela> Kaltar> "...The Starr... speaks... ummm... oh screw it, I'm no good at that."
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> Woh woh there Darien, how do you even know it's true? Because of a dream you had?
<DeathStar> <Billy> He is right. 6* She steps in, her hands behind her back.
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> And we should believe her?
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> All of this? Kinda wild when you think about it.
<DeathStar> <Billy> I could kill you and let your soul see for yourself.
<Kit> 6Lilith seems to follow Billy, the two being her minions and all. Or perhaps it's just because half of the adoptive guardians are braindead currently, though addressing the council she hangs back, her expression solidifying as her inugami side takes over.
<Angela> Darce> "BEcause she's a bloody Dark One."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hm. Seems to be same ol' same ol' to me.
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki eeks than looks over at Darce. 1"What better reason than not to believe her.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "A lot of things that are true seem crazy."
<Angela> Darce> "Because she's working with the good guys, I guess."
<DeathStar> <Darien> As crazy as it sounds, sometimes people have to take blind leap of faith. As you know, the Dark Ones have Shiva Seventies' soul.
<Angela> Darce> "That and Starr really believes what he's saying."
<Angela> * Darce smiles apologetically at Darien.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I just never thought my life would get this fun.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Fun? Huh. If you say so.
<Kit> 6Chii grins aside Katrina. 1"It takes all kinds."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Apparantly.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC glances at Chii. 1"Hi."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glacnes at Myria directly. "We need the help."
<Kit> 6Chii turns her head to SPoC, flicking a pointed, white ear. 1"Moshi-moshi."
<Angela> Kaltar> "...The Vapaad will send ship."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...what are the decisions of the council representatives?
* Terra looks to Chii "I thought kitsune couldn't say that?"
<Angela> Kalter> "*warbles* "...Ships."
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> Oh you guys lend your ships out like they're used condoms...
<Kit> <Chii> Don't believe everything you hear.
<Angela> Kaltar> "....We normally get ours back."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Huh? 6She looks at her quizically.
<Kit> <Chii> Means 'hello,' doesn't it?
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> You can guarantee to us that this is what you say it is?
* Marcus` glances at Angela.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> How should I know?
<Kit> 6Chii glances upward, scratching her cheek. 1"Mh, pretty sure. We know too many languages... Alive a long time."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hops over and hands Myria a piece of paper with some Progenitor words written down.
<Kit> <Chii> Thank heavens people decided to normalize and standardize Basic, sheesh."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *takes the paper and reads it*
* Angela looks back at him.
* Marcus` smiles slightly.
<DeathStar> <Billy> That's two ancient Progenitor items your people should have recovered. I'll need them.
* Angela smiles back gently, though nervously.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Send them via 1 day shipping, too
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> You could atleast butter it up next time. 6He leans back. 1"The Cartel, under Ambassador Loki's decision, will provide aid to Darien Starr."
<Marcus`> *Theron silently reads over her shoulder, then looks to Billy.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> You apparently speak a different version of Basic than what I know."
<Terra> <Vyssa> "..."
<Angela> Darce> "What the hell, you can have some ships."
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> How many, and what class ships do you want? And would you be in the market for some...6He waves his hands. 1"Not so legal help?"
<Kit> 6Chii shakes her head. 1"Old earth japanese gets mixed in from time to time. I... Well, we were born in the holy mountains of nihongo, after all."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...their purpise?
<DeathStar> <Darien> As many as you can spare will do.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I believe the Syin can provide some ships also."
<DeathStar> <Billy> You'll just have to wait and see. 6* She smiles evilly.
<Kit> <Chii> I'm sure it's as strange to you as your outfit is to me.
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> I'll chock it against what you already owe us.
<Angela> "We're trying to win the real war here, legality isn't an issue with Dark Ones."
* Terra says nothing to Chii
<DeathStar> Song: 201 - Here He Comes
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Done then. I want to see this one.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I'm an elite soldier. 6She smiles proudly.
<DeathStar> <Voice> If you aid them, you will all regret it.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns toward the voice.
* Angela stiffens at that voice.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade stands there at the entrance to the Council Chamber.
* Marcus` narrows his eyes, his hands already wrapped around his blades.
<Terra> "Is that so?"
* Angela shakes, hand on her holsteed gun.
<Kit> 6Chii flicks her tail slightly, glancing once to Terra, she says nothing, putting a hand to her bared hip as she juts it to the side in her pose. To SPoC, 1"Mm, times change, truly..."
<Marcus`> *Theron stiffens up, shifting to get partially in front of Myria/
<Kit> 6Chii's ears raise and she turns to glance across at Spade. 1"...Him!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns, glancing upward at the ceiling.
<DeathStar> NRP: KAt's in the hanger.
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> Oh crap this can't be good. 6He slides back his chair.
<Marcus`> NRP: HAH!
<Terra> <Vyssa> *just sighs, readying her gun*
<DeathStar> <Spade> We will allow you only once chance to withdraw your support.
<Kit> 6Megumi remains silent, not wishing to approach the room or intrude on Erevis' reminiscing.
* Chad`Winters puts his hand on his holster, eyeing Spade. Dias shifts into a fighting stance.
<Angela> "Will... Dark One..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis begins to head for the council chamber.
<Kit> 6* Lilith growls slightly, holding Raquel away from Spade's direction.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grinds his teeth. "Not going to happen."
* Marcus` eyes Angela slightly, before fully facing Spade.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Something up, Erevis?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know yet.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "As long as you continue to threaten all living beings, the support will not be withdrawn."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Threaten all living beings? Do not be absurd.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *looks over quizzically*
<Chad`Winters> Well attempting to kill us contradicts that statement.
<Angela> "You use souls to produce, you threaten all life."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Your outdated and naive ideas of ideals are truly chains. We are guiding the universe.
<Marcus`> To what, exactly?
<DeathStar> <Spade> You are children who must grow. Forged through fire.
<Angela> "The universe doesn't want your guidance!"
<Terra> <Vyssa> "It does not require your 'guidance'."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Is that so? Then why are you all running toward extinction?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tch. What nonsense.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'll pass on the fire thing, not my idea of fun.
<Angela> "Because you're killing us?"
<Marcus`> Well I was bored, and there was nothing on the holovid. *he mumbles, glancing off to the side*
<DeathStar> <Spade> Hardly. Look at all your actions. You are beings of chaos. You are truly our children. Especially you, Serena.
<Kit> 6Chii taps her lip, seemingly bothered by something, but shakes her head, glancing at Katrina.
<Angela> "Don't call me that!"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks oblivious
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I wonder what's taking them so long?
<DeathStar> <Spade> Serena. It's me, Spade. You should join us. I love you.
* Angela draws her gun on him.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade sighs. "Going to kill another lover, Angela?"
<Angela> "You called me Angela."
<Kit> <Chii> Don't ask me, we've never partaken in these deliberations. We made our own decisions. Something's not right. I feel tense, but Katrina doesn't seem to be picking anything up...
<DeathStar> <Spade> Quite unbecoming of a mother.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis arrives in the Council Chamber.
* Marcus` snarls, his teeth getting slightly sharper. "Watch your tongue, Spade."
* Angela unclicks the safety. "My child will be born human."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> You really talk funny sometimes. 6She looks at her oddly
* Terra eyes Spade levelly. "Stop interfering in our lives."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Should I be?
<Kit> <Chii> Sorry.
<Kit> 6Chii frowns at Katrina. 1"...I'm... not sure. I can't quite get a feel for what it might be."
<DeathStar> <Spade> I wonder. If your children will understand all your sins.
<Kit> <Chii> It could just be anticipation, I guess.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Erevis, that voice, I recognize it.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances toward Erevis. "Ah, the prodigal Progenitor returns.
<Angela> "I'm not the doubting little pet you once guided."
<Kit> 6Megumi enters finally, aside Erevis, and pulls to an abrubtly halt, clenching her fists.
<Chad`Winters> Do us a favor than, paint us a picture of what sin's we're committing.
<DeathStar> <Spade> *crosses his arms* We are the first race. We are here to guide you all, so that you do not overstep your bounds
<Terra> "Fuck that."
<Chad`Winters> By killing us and subsequently taking us over.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Killing you? I was unaware we ever killed anyone other than you fools who get in our way.
<Kit> <Megumi> I have heard something like this before as well.
<Angela> "We don't want your guidance. Stop wearing that face!"
* Angela looks ready to shoot.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think it's time you go back to your people and tell them "Fuck you"
<Kit> <Megumi> But I respected Wind far more than someone wearing fallen friends' faces.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Heh. Fine then. I'll come here to do what I was sent to do. Darien Starr. It's time you died.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Boy, I hate it when they single me out
* Angela keeps her gun trained on him. It's a big gun.
<Kit> 6Chii rubs her head slowly. 1"...Killing intent?"
<Terra> <Vyssa> *does likewise*
* Chad`Winters eyes all the people, his face goes grim as he steps back.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade begins to waver, and suddenly, a Wiendigo unlike any other stands before them. Only those with memories of the past would recognize him.
<DeathStar> Song: Virgil Battle
<DeathStar> 6* Darien blinks, stepping back.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> ...I'm wow, you're definetly a strange person.
<Angela> "Weindigo..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You feel killing intent?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This is not good.
<Kit> 6Chii nods.
<Kit> <Megumi> What is it, Erevis?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> The council room
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stands and hurries.
* Marcus` arches a brow. "Who the hell is this?"
* X3 is now known as Wiendigo
<Angela> * Darce stands up, pulling out his metal darts.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien draws an energy sword.
<Kit> 6Chii hurries after her, her footfalls all but silent.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves after Kat
<DeathStar> <Darien> What kind of sick game is this? You're not Wiendigo.
<Angela> "A psychopath."
<Terra> "Who the fuck are you, anyway?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh hell yeah. Fighting Spade is too troublesome. This guy I can do.
<Wiendigo> The executioner.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Taking on the visages of those we know should not surprise us. Take it down.
* Wiendigo grins and cracks his neck
* Marcus` slides his blades out, standing cautiously. "That was kinda cool." He notes.
<Terra> "... so, just some bigheaded fool. Alright."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Becareful. His strength is greater than all of us. He is of the old universe.
<Chad`Winters> Darien, get the ambassadors out of here.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I can't do that. This is my fight.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien circles Wiendigo.
<Marcus`> It'd be kinda pointless if you died now, Darien.
* Wiendigo stands there with his arms folded, waiting.
<Chad`Winters> Angela, Marcus, Terra get them out.
<Kit> 6Megumi holds out her hand, crystal slowly forming into the gigantic form of her zanbato blade. She waits until its solidified, then turns and hurtles the blade at the new opponent. 1"I have heard that before, as well, Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien doesn't seem to be listening anymore.
<Terra> "What the fuck? Why me?"
* Marcus` points to Chad. "No."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Last time I saw you, I was dying in the mud and rain.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *rises* ...this council now adjourns. We will be withdrawing via the back entrance. *walks out the back door*
* Wiendigo 's head tilts to the side minimally, the blade sils on past
* Angela doesn't hesitate, she moves back to the Ambassadors. "Secondary door, NOW."
* Chad`Winters sighs and rubs the bridge of his nose.
<Marcus`> *Theron sighd and steps forward. "Follow me." He motions, leading the way out.
<Angela> * Kaltar floats after Myria.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps into the council room
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki get's up and moves out quickly through the back entrance.
<Wiendigo> You talk way too fucking much.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Whoa, who's with the creepy guy in the visor?
<Kit> 6Megumi snaps her fingers, the blade shattering.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien dashes forward, slashing at Wiendigo in an uppercuyt.
<Angela> * Darce doesn't leave with the others, he grins, apparently been working a desk job too long.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias bounces, studying Wiendigo all to eagerly.
* Angela leads the ambassadors out. "Marcus come on."
<Terra> <Vyssa> *moves towards the door, to guard it*
* Marcus` stands there, he glances back at Angela. "Go with Theron. They'll need me here."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps in. 1"Now that guys lacks style."
<Kit> 6The elf-eared girl then adopts a posture with her open palms upward beside Erevis, not charging like Megumi normally would.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis forms her green bo.
<Kit> 6Chii slides to a halt beside Katrina, narrowing her eyes. 1"...Eh... That explains it."
* Cassandra` moves, standing in the path of the secondary door, gun ready.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> What emotions coming from him. 6* She studies wiendigo.
<Angela> "MArcus...." *she looks worried, she glances at Wein, she knows him* "He makes Spade look wimpy."
* Wiendigo steps back and lets Darien uppercut the air, then brings his knee up to Darien's chest
* Marcus` smiles. "I know."
<Kit> <Chii> Ugh, where is Drake?
<Terra> <Vyssa> "This being scares me."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is hit, his eyes widening. "So...fast..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Screw emotions. 6He dashes in from behind and he leaps throwing a spin kick at Wiendigos back
<Kit> <Megumi> Emotions are my weapon.
* Wiendigo spins around and catches Dias foot
<Kit> <Chii> They're my food, but without Drake I don't think I can handle something like that.
<Angela> * Darce galres at Weindigo and launches a mental assault on his mind.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias' eyes go wide and twists, swinging his other leg to catch Wien's chin
* Angela moves out with Theron and the ambassadors.
<Wiendigo> *Darce will only find a jumble of darkness, no real substance to attack*
* Wiendigo 's teeth catch along Dias' ankle
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Wiendigo. God, I hated him. Our relationship was a twisted one. Each of us knowing we needed the other, but also knowing one day we'd drive our sword into the other's back. Wiendigo wasn't a born killer, but life certainly made him the best at what he did. He was everything I hated when I was a younger man. Now, as an older man with hatred in my own heart, I wondered why I hated him.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias howls out in pain.
<Angela> * Darce blinks and hops back, "This one isn't a normal Dark One."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien spinslashes at Wiendigo's right side.
<Kit> 6Chii stomps her foot frustratedly, her tail bristled slightly. 1"...Is this the one with Freyja?" 6Her hands slide toward her back, yanking out two short, straight-edged blades in her usual downward style.
* Wiendigo throws his hands hard to his sides, three metal prongs springing from each hand
<Terra> "Yeah, normally they fall fairly easily..."
<Angela> Darce> "This one isn't... real. He's got no mind to attack, it's just Darkness."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hits the floor and rolls.
* Chad`Winters unholsters his right gun and he clicks the safety off.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Darkness will hurt just the same.
* Wiendigo points to Darien
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pulls out her own sword.
<Kit> <Chii> It's not an illusion. I won't fall for those, be careful!
<Wiendigo> I know you. But you're like a dream to my memory.
<Kit> <Chii> Something... else. Manifested emotions? Hatred? Something like the elf-girl?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien attempts to drive his sword into Wiendigo's right side. "You're the dream within a dream, Wiendigo. A figment of an era long dead."
* Marcus` rotates his blade, he slowly walks to the left, circling Wien.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes himself up and he grabs his foot
<Kit> <Megumi> This is nothing like my ability.
<Wiendigo> Then the dead walk amongst you!
<Angela> Darce> "Maybe just a dream... let's kick his ass."
* Wiendigo slides past the sword and swings his claws at Darien's face
* Chad`Winters fires a shot aimed to knock the claws off target.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien blinks, then throws himself back as Chad provides him with the scarciest of moments.
* Wiendigo 's hand snaps back from the shot
* Marcus` shifts forward, slashing out for Wien's back now.
<DeathStar> Song: Turn Me On Mr. Dead Man
<Terra> <Vyssa> *heads after Angela*
* Wiendigo throws his other hand up, catching the blade in his claws
* Chad`Winters holds his gun aimed at Wiendigo again.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides in low, sweep kicking at Wien's feet
* Terra rushes forwards at Wien, zigzagging, punching at his gut with her metal hand
<Kit> <Chii> ...I hate these beings. Is there anyway to tell... Where... Freyja resides...?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien jumps over Dias' slide, slashing at Wiendigo's visor.
<DeathStar> <Darien> He hates bright lights!
<Kit> <Megumi> Huh? So do I!
* Wiendigo leaps up out of Chad's sweep, and throws Marcus's blade off as Terra rushes in
<Kit> 6Chii blinks, her ears flickering, she reaches back into a satchel at the back of her outfit. 1"Bright light? Got it!"
<Angela> * Darce pulls a claw on one hand, holding the darts between his fingers with the other, waiting for an opening. "Bright light you say?"
* Marcus` smiles, jumping back, giving time to be a distraction, he moves over to get his blade back.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches the fight.
* Terra punches at Wien's gut, turning her hand into a spike as she does
<Chad`Winters> Noted. 6He slides his hand along his tact belt, grabbing something.
* Wiendigo catches Terra's arms and twists it up violently
<Wiendigo> *arm
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides next to Marcus. 1"This guy's awesome.
<Kit> 6Chii throws her hands out, dropping off two ball-like bombs from either. 1"Don't look directly!"
* Terra winces, but kicks out at Wien at the same time
<Angela> * Darce tosses a dart, guiding it telekenetically at Wein's face.
<Marcus`> I know. *he smiles, lifting his blade up* Gotta play this one smart.
<Kit> 6Old-fashioned flash bombs from powders.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lets Terra be his distraction for his slash at Wiendigo's visor.
* Wiendigo is kicked and he rolls back along the floor, resting in a croching position. He catches Darien's blade between his hands and shoves it to the side
* Terra closes her eyes for the flash for a moment, timing it carefully
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Runner-up than? 6He looks at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien winces, struggling against wiendigo's strength.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hey, Adam. Fuck you. 6* He attmepts to headbutt Wiendigo.
* Wiendigo bares his teeth at Darien, then suddenly lets go of the blade
* Marcus` glances at Dias and nods.
* Chad`Winters dashes in towards Wiendigo.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Dias
<DeathStar> 6* Billy sits on Myria's desk and watches, wiggling her legs.
* Marcus` shifts in behind Dias.
<Kit> 6Chii grinds her teeth angrily, the bombs having not gone off. Her hand is raised upward, black lines laced in ancient writing curved toward each of the round bombs.
* Chad`Winters leaps forward into a crouch on his hands.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Dias....
<Kit> <Megumi> So this is someone Mister Starr used... to know?
* Marcus` leaps up and over Dias, his blades out wide.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. They are like two sides of a coin, in some ways.
* Wiendigo jumps into the air and flips, and as he flips, he brandishes his katana and slices out at the bombs
* Terra moves around Wien, preparing to attack at the same moment
<Kit> <Megumi> I thought Mister Starr and Mister Carmichael were...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien dashes around.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly shoves off, launching Marcus into the air with his feet
* Marcus` soars through the air, wrapping his arms, blades out at each side.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands on his feet and he dashes in towards Wien, he spin kicks towards his legs again.
* Terra moves in to spinkick at Wien from a different direction at the same time
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs one of Chii's bombs, spins, and hurls it at Wiendigo's back.
* Marcus` comes in from above, as Terra and Dias come in for his side. He slashes out with both of his blades as he moves in, aiming for Wien's visor.
* Wiendigo laughs as he suddenly drops through the floor, immaterialized
<Marcus`> ...fuck me.
<Terra> "Bloody hell."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Goddammit, I hate taht!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias crashes into Terra
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis closes her eyes, as if sensing out Wiendigo
* Marcus` slams into the floor and skids along, slamming into the fall.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks around, trying to pick up the dark feelings.
* Terra crashes into Dias
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oiii...
* Wiendigo drops out of the ceiling towards Darien, his claws aimed at the top of his head
<Kit> 6Megumi closes her eyes as well, merely listening for the smallest movements and vibrations.
<Terra> "That hurt."
* Chad`Winters fires another shot towards Wien as he falls.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks up, barely parrying with his blade. His knees buckle.
<Marcus`> Thanks for the heads up Darien. *he pulls himself up*
<Kit> <Chii> ...I hate waiting..
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs a gun with his free hand fires it into Wiendigo's face.
<Kit> 6Chii maintains her lock on the bombs, waiting for the moment they might be useful in this case.
* Wiendigo bites the gun from the side and tries to yank it out of Darien's han
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... 6* Blinks.
* Chad`Winters shifts his aim and fires a charged shot for Wiens visor
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes Terra off by using her boobs as a leverage point
* Wiendigo drops the gun out of his mouth and shoves off of Darien, away from Chad's shot
<Terra> "... hey! Damn it!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis begins to gather green energy into the bo.
* Terra glares, eyes red, then throws a flame at Wiendigo's heafd
<DeathStar> 6* Darien suddenly berserks, chasing afterWiendigo, slashing rapidly.
* Chad`Winters glances at Erevis then turns, firing shots at Wien's right side.
<Kit> 6Megumi pauses a moment, opening one eye. 1"...Erevis, you.."
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> I admit it. I lost it. I felt like I was back in ym old life.
* Marcus` pauses, eyeing Darien going berserk.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm going to get you this time, you psychopath
<Kit> <Chii> Fuck it.
<Terra> "Fucking awesome."
* Wiendigo smiles wildly, hacking madly at Darien with his claws
<Kit> 6Chii snaps her fingers, launching quick-moving black flames at each of the four flash bombs, setting them off.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien parries a hack, slashes with his own, gets cut, parries, slashes, gets cut.
* Chad`Winters turns his head as the flash bombs go off.
<Wiendigo> You never could get it up, old man!
<Kit> <Megumi> Gah! Son of a !
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias howls in pain as he can longer see!
<DeathStar> <Darien> You never learned to stop getting off!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis winces.
<Terra> "... well, shit. Now I can't see."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina covers her eyes.
<Kit> 6* Megumi falls backwards, clutching her eyes even over the sunglasses.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps slashing, even blind.
<Angela> * Darce closes his eyes, opening to watch after the flash.
* Marcus` winces, covering his eyes. "Who the fuck did that!?"
* Chad`Winters brings his aim at the floor between and behind Darien's legs. He fires a shot, aiming to bounce it up and into Wien.
* Terra stumbles, landing on the floor
* Wiendigo stumbles back from the flashes, holding his face
<Wiendigo> I CAN'T SEE! FUCK!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slashes at Wiendigo's throat.
* Wiendigo stumbles around
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thank you for the noise!
* Wiendigo catches Darien's blade with his bare hand. He's unphased.
<Wiendigo> Just kidding.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien strains.
* Wiendigo 's hand bleeds wildly
* Chad`Winters switches guns to Ebony and he begins charging a shot.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien attempts to cut straight through his hand
<Kit> 6Chii holds her hand after running a small distance, beginning to converse more runic lines on Weindigo himself. 1"Fine, if indirect doesn't work..."
* Terra concentrates on Wiendigo's voice, aiming her flames there
* Wiendigo growls and thrusts his other claw-laden hand towards Darien's gut
<Kit> 6Chii quickly swings both hands back, both blades sheathed and holds out both hands, concentrating on getting her lock on Wiendigo.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Fuck.
<Chad`Winters> DARIEN NOW! 6He fires the charged shot for Darien aiming towards his shoulder
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is gutted. He rips his sword free, and returns the favor by stabbing at wiendigo's throat.
<DeathStar> 6* He then shifts to the side.
* Terra launches a ball of flame at Wiendigo as Darien moves
<Angela> * Darce sends a volley of spokes at Wein's direction.
<Angela> *spikes
* Wiendigo thrusts a hand to his throat; a gaping hole now
<DeathStar> 6* Darien falls to the ground, holding his bleeding stomach.
* Wiendigo mouths. "Nice."
<Kit> <Chii> Shut up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Check...mate...
<Kit> 6Chii snaps, converging her black fire on Wiendigo.
* Wiendigo barely laughs with a mix of gurgling and raspy gafaws. As the barrage of attacks heads towards him, Wien simply takes his katana to what remains of his throat and jerks it through the remaining chunk.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina gapes. "Did he just---?"
* Marcus` widens his eyes, watching the scene. "...kill himself?"
<Kit> <Chii> Shimata! Nandatou!?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes, staring
* Chad`Winters shifts his stance as he narrows his eyes.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Suhweet.
* Terra blinks, her sight slowly returning
* Wiendigo 's head drops off his body; his body falls and crumbles away
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You see that? He was so scared of me he killed himself.
<Terra> "Holy shit..."
<Kit> <Chii> I ...If that was the one with Chii I've lost again!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis waves the bo, sealing off any reality disturbances that might occur.
<Kit> <Chii> Kuso!
* Marcus` sheathes his blades and slides over to Darien. "Yo. We need a doctor."
<DeathStar> <Darien> *coughs up blood* Tastes like copper. Ha ha ha.
* Chad`Winters lower shis gun and he moves over to Darien, kneeling down.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina kneels beside Darien.
<Cassandra`> *comm* Medical to the council chamber.
<Kit> 6Megumi springs over to Darien, rubbing her eyes with her arm.
<Kit> <Megumi> Mister Starr, you really need to break this habit.
<Terra> "You okay, Megumi?"
* Chad`Winters presses his hands against the wound.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Wiendigo. That sick fuck. He always had the last laugh. Always.
<Kit> <Megumi> Far better than him..
<Chad`Winters> He gutted you. 6He notes.
<Kit> 6Megumi knees, putting a hand to Darien's shoulder, focusing intently.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, I know. 6* He laughs harder.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stretches.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs up fluids.
<Marcus`> Why...is this funny?
<Chad`Winters> I hope you're clean. 6He sighs as he continues applieing pressure.
<DeathStar> <Darien> He gutted me. It's brilliant. 6* He laughs and coughs.
<Marcus`> ...yeah i'm not getting it.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I don't get it.
* Angela comes running back in. "I heard the comms is... oh god..."
<Kit> <Megumi> It is a slow and painful way to die.
* Marcus` glances at Katrina and just shrugs.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly starts laughing. 1"That's hilarious..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's why it's beautiful.
* Marcus` pauses, glancing around. "...ok."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Really> I thought having your intenstines pulled out of your ass was far more painful.
<Kit> <Megumi> I believe when I said this kind of thing to you before, you struck me and told me not to say such things.
<Terra> "Darien..."
* Angela rushes over. "Meg you're haling him right?"
<Chad`Winters> If you plan on dieing, tell me now so I can stop applying pressure.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I miss them all so much.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles a bit.
<Kit> 6Megumi raises her free right hand and flicks Darien lightly on the forehead. 1"Please do not speak of dying so easily, you goat."
<Marcus`> Apparently she is too busy beratting him. *he notes to Angela*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Not today. I got one more thing to do.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT/TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: The Flagship; In Hyper Space
<DeathStar> Song: A Million Light Years Away - Character
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stares ahead.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays on her bed, her eyes closed
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds his stomach, the wounds hurting, despite being healed, like a kiss from a lover.
* Marcus` stands off to the side, keeping away from Warren.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> And so, we set out for the planet where the souls were kept, praying the fleet would come in time. Praying the council of peace would come through
<Kit> <Chii> We'll get them back, won't we, Katrina..?
* Chad`Winters sits on the bridge, leaning back as he eyes space infront of him.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes.
* Angela looks at Marcus. "I-I..."
<Kit> 6Megumi sits in the corner of the room, having trouble resting at all, merely watching Erevis.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves through the hallways, glancing around as she moves.
* Marcus` arches a brow, looking at her. "What's wrong, now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis seems out of it, almost feverish
<DeathStar> <Darien> We're almost there.
<Kit> <Megumi> I thought something might happen... But I did not know what to expect. Because we are... getting closer?
<Marcus`> *Theron silently watches space ahead.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "How is everyone holding up?"
<Angela> "Nothings wrong... I'm still not sure what to say..."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *walks forward* ...I am here representing the council.
<Kit> 6Chii seems to try and ignore some of her doubt after her confirmation from Katrina, but being a negatively fixated being, it's difficult.
<Marcus`> *Theron glances at Vyssa and holds a single thumb up.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy pops out, holding out her hands. "My two vials?"
* Terra looks to Billy. "What are those for...?"
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> I am not empty handed.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Have faith, Chii.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy wiggles. "Come on, come on!"
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *holds a vial up in each hand*
* Marcus` shakes his head. "When we get there, remain on this ship. Cheryl will protect you."
<Angela> "...What? But..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *cups her hands, thinking hard*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias runs through the hallways.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy waves her hands for them
<Kit> 6Chii kneels, wrapping her arms around Katrina's waist for reassurance.
<Angela> "I've got to help..."
<Marcus`> If that's my kid in there. I'm not going to let you go off and get it killed. *he points to her stomach*
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...and you will reveal to me their purpose?
<Kit> 6Megumi rises and walks over, laying the back of her hand across Erevis' forehead.
* Angela blinks at him.
<Angela> "Marcus..."
<DeathStar> <Billy> They're needed to save the universe. I can say nothing more.
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis opens her eyes slightly.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I do not like such secrets, but if you cannot speak of it further, then you cannot."
<Angela> * Darce sits in a chair on the bridge, probably something important, but he's napping.
* Marcus` shakes his head. "You risk alot even coming here now."
<Kit> <Megumi> I am sorry, I did not mean to disturb...
<Chad`Winters> Do you plan on going onto their base? 6He glances over at cheryl
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *hands them over* My curiosity still exists though. These have been a riddle for a long time.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Well, come come, to the bridge.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy skips away.
<Angela> "I have to... I need to make sure this kid has a safe universe to grow up in."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *follows*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the distance, then hits the alarms. "All hands to the bridge!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances up and shrugs, running off towards the bridge.
<Angela> * Darce snorts awake and looks around. "Huh?"
<DeathStar> Song: Path - Event Music.
<Cassandra`> What have we got?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits up. "We are here." 6* She stands.
* Marcus` makes a face. "...you should stay here. Trust me."
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Well, it seems my disturbance was only a ripple in the waves.
<Kit> 6Megumi resentfully looks toward the ceiling as Erevis rises. 1"..."
* Angela nods and heads to the bridge with him.
<DeathStar> 6* Up ahead, a dark planet can be seen in hyperspace - it's all black
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't seem to notice, moving forward, as if possessed.
<Marcus`> *Theron studies the dark planet.
<DeathStar> 6* Black veins run from it into hyperspace itself, seemingly.
<Kit> <Megumi> Has the progenitor awakened?
* Marcus` walks along.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *also watches the dark planet*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Huh? 6* She looks at Megumi.
<Chad`Winters> This defies every law of science...6He leans forward, obvioulsy interested
<DeathStar> <Warren> Very welcoming.
<Kit> 6Megumi turns, hands on her hips. 1"...It is a curiousity of mine, Erevis. You would know.."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... *She tilts her head* I am myself. We need to hurry. 6* She walks on.
* Angela eyes it. "Long term Hyperspace travel... interesting... the perfect defense."
<DeathStar> 6* A fleet of Dark Fleet Ships begin to approach
<Terra> <Vyssa> *takes readings*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow, they're actually going to fight inside hyperspace?
<Terra> <Vyssa> "We should do something about the ships too."
<Kit> <Megumi> Alright. It is my turn to look out for you, though.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Gutsy fellows.
<Marcus`> Looks like.
<Chad`Winters> What's interesting is the fact that it's touching Hyper Space walls and it's not begin destroyed.
<Angela> "Constant exiting?"
<Kit> 6Megumi quickly steps to catch her pace and then walks matching, arms behind her.
<Angela> "Keep a window out to normal space, trail along each wall. A sort of reverse anchor."
<Chad`Winters> Hyper Space destroys all matter it touches tho, which makes this an anomoly.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hops up, hold out a vial to Chii. "Drink."
<Kit> 6Chii blinks at Billy. 1"..H-huh!?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If we fire in hyperspace, we risk blowing ourselves up.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I don't think they'll leave us much of a choice.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I would say that they're using the same defence as is used to protect ships in hyperspace, but stronger."
<DeathStar> <Billy> It's for Freyja's sake. Drinky.
<Kit> <Chii> Ara, what is this, all of the sudden?
<Angela> "...Well if you're going to take a risk and fire a shot... use the big gun?"
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Billy skeptically, knowing somewhat of her contradictory nature, but takes it, eyeing it suspicously, one look to Katrina.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She seems genuine.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy skips to Warren, holding it out. "Drink, old man."
<Chad`Winters> We have no choice Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes her, taking the vial...and drinks it
<DeathStar> Song: Holding Out For A Hero - Drama
<Kit> 6Chii knits her expression, but hey, if Warren will take it, she leans back and downs it like she's seen Katrina with the rocket fuel.
<Chad`Winters> What if we destroy those veins? 6He glances over at Angela.
<DeathStar> <Billy> I wouldn't, or we all die.
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Ships fire their tendrils at their ship.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Evading!
* Chad`Winters looks at Billy. 1"I see..."
<DeathStar> 6* The flagship takes evasive manuevers.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I guess the PAX council didn't get the ships out in time.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias comes tumbling into the Bridge.
* Angela looks to Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis arrives on the bridge.
<Kit> 6Chii peers into the empty vial, looking to Warren. 1"...Warren?"
<Angela> "To kill a kite, you simply cut the tether."
<Marcus`> We asked a council of peace to prepare for a war.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Yes?
<Angela> "I say we attack the vein."
<Kit> <Chii> ...Should we feel any different?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I don't.
<Chad`Winters> Billy's right. If we miss we'll collapse everything.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fire!
<Marcus`> Or if you hit, you'll collapse everything?
<DeathStar> 6* The Flagships fire, into the Dark Ships. Hyperspace shudders with mini-explosions
<Kit> <Megumi> Miss Bennet, would you remove the tethers from a fusion core while it was operating?
<Chad`Winters> Apparently.
<Cassandra`> Billy, what should be our objective?
<Angela> "If I wanted it to explode, yes."
<DeathStar> <Drake> *rubs his chin, having arrived* Well, this is fun
<Kit> <Megumi> I would prefer to live.
* Terra watches, seemingly entranced
<DeathStar> <Billy> It's on the planet!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias winces as Drake stands on him.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Get close, and beam in.
<DeathStar> <Billy> And pray we don't get fried!
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Drake. 1"There you are..."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, a fleet of ships arrive, and begin to attack the DArk Ships. Hyperspace lights up with explosions
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, look who's there.
<Kit> <Megumi> At least I do not think I will need these glasses on this kind of planet.
* Marcus` whistles. "That's some pretty fightin."
<DeathStar> <Warren> We should use them as a distraction and get to that planet.
<Kit> 6Megumi holds up her hands, wincing. 1"Ah... argh..."
<Marcus`> <Theron> Agreed.
* Chad`Winters stands up. 1"We should get down to the teleporters."
<DeathStar> <Billy> But, teleporting in hyperspace might kill us.
<DeathStar> *Billy giggles*
<Terra> "Got a better idea?"
<DeathStar> <Drake> She is quite evil
<Kit> <Megumi> I find few things do not these days.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Well ... *scuffs the ground*
<Marcus`> Couldn't we just land?
<DeathStar> <Billy> LAnd on the planet!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Land this thing on a planet?
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stares.
<Angela> "It's capable."
* Chad`Winters rubs the bridge of his nose
<Marcus`> Better than dying before we get there.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That ol' insane soul!
<Angela> "I designed these things to handle multiple atmospheres."
<Kit> <Chii> With that kind of expression, I think she's looking forward to a crash.
* Ariel has joined #taw
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns. "For the planet!"
<Kit> NRP: Yay!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drinks from her flask.
* Chad`Winters moves over and grabs the flask, taking a pull himself.
<DeathStar> <Drake> Wait, are you two getting drunk?
<Kit> <Chii> Why not? Seems like a good time.
* Chad`Winters looks at Cheryl than at Drake. 1"Nah..."
* Terra pulls out a flask and takes a drink too
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Drunk is a relative term
<Kit> <Megumi> Despicable. We need all the concentration possible.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shrugs. "Hey, we're quite the team."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Haw! Redneck squad.
<Terra> "I'm not a redneck."
<Marcus`> ...i'm not a redneck.
<Angela> "...Is that safe to drink?"
<Kit> 6Megumi eyes Darien. 1"...My neck is pale.."
* Chad`Winters holds the flask back out to Cheryl.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> I'm blue.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Christ, I miss my old team.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl takes it back, toasting. "To insanity."
<Kit> <Chii> Redneck? I haven't heard that term in ages.
<Kit> <Chii> Bravo, Darien.
<Terra> "Eh?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shoves off the floor, tossing Drake about.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake stumbles.
<Cassandra`> Well...I think we had better brace for impact.
<DeathStar> Song: Abyss - Character
<DeathStar> 6* The ship begins to enter the dark atmosphere.
* Terra does so, Vyssa doing likewise
<DeathStar> 6* Billy grabs a seat.
<Chad`Winters> Everyone hold onto something. 6He grabs co-pilots seat.
<Kit> 6Megumi removes her gift from Warren, the sunglasses,
<DeathStar> 6* The planet fires dark tendrils up, tearing into the ship, as if trying to rip it apart in the sky.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias grabs onto Kat's ass.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts* Someone doesn't want us here
* Angela holds onto the observatory bars.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina slaps Dias.
<Angela> "Alrighty ship, show them what you cna handle!"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well played. 6He let's go.
<Kit> <Megumi> What else is new, Mister Carmichael? Break through!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *hits the red button*
<Ariel> Setsuna> "I missed warm welcomes like this..."
<DeathStar> <Warren *groans* Did you hit the red button?
<Chad`Winters> You didn't just hit hte red button did you?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I hit the red button.
<Terra> "Right! This team can break through even the heavens!"
<Chad`Winters> Oh god..
<DeathStar> 6* The ship transforms and gets BIGGER engines.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Here we go again.
<Angela> "WHOOO!"
<Kit> <Chii> Heheheh...
* Angela apparently likes her toy designs.
<Terra> "WAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOO! YEAH!"
<DeathStar> 6* IT boosts forward.
<Kit> <Megumi> Oh hell...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stumbles back from the sudden accelleartion and slams into the wall.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake slams into Dias.
<Kit> 6Megumi flies back into a bulkhead. 1"Grah! Damn it!"
* Marcus` arches a brow. "....oh crap." He reaches out to grab onto something and slams into Drake.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis holds her ground
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grabs a seat.
<Marcus`> MRP: goes flying back*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just cries.
<Ariel> Em> "...wouldn't it be better to just give the ship the big engines in the first place?"
<Kit> 6Chii grabs Katrina.
<Marcus`> *Theron just braces himself slightly.
<Kit> <Chii> Animes blame it on energy draw.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "I think so too."
<Cassandra`> We need to have a serious talk with someone!!!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Then I couldn't hit the red button.
<Chad`Winters> Than we wouldn't have a big red button for Cheryl to hit.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hums a song.
<Ariel> Em> "The red button would be 'go'!"
<Kit> 6Megumi struggles off the bulkhead and stomps her way back to Erevis, demanding herself to stand firm as well.
<DeathStar> 6* The ship finally comes skidding along the ground, rushing forward toward a giant black dome.
<Chad`Winters> Think we should knock? 6He looks at Cheryl.
<Kit> <Chii> Just once.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Knock knock. 6* She hits the trigger button, firing into the dome.
<DeathStar> 6* Their ship comes to a stop, and all power drains away.
<Ariel> "Cheryl... you're being subtle. That's not like you."
<Kit> <Megumi> Typical.
<DeathStar> Song: Dark Trek - Drama
<DeathStar> <Warren> Looks like we walk
<Chad`Winters> It happens when you have a kid. 6He stands up
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands up. "I like to walk softly and carry a big fucking stick."
<Cassandra`> ...lock and load...
<Terra> "Good way to live."
* Angela checks the ships readouts to see if they can even get it back up.
* Marcus` pulls himself up, "....I don't like the red button."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna clicks off her safety.
<DeathStar> 6* It seems something on the planet is keeping it offline
<Kit> 6Lilith, in the entryway to the bridge, leands against it. 1"I will watch the ship?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns, leading the way
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Our only escape is victory.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shoves Drake off him.
<Marcus`> *Theron shifts and moves out after Darien.
<Angela> "I ummm..."
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> And here we were, finally.
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Hell itself.
* Angela looks embarrased.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I don't want to see you left alone."
<Angela> "I should..."
<Cassandra`> Come on Setsuna... *starts walking*
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *walks after Theron*
<Kit> <Lilith> Ojousama, you are awake..
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna heads off, eager to shoot something.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl checks her whip, then follows. Drake gets up and rushes. Katrina and Erevis turn to go.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...the landing was loud..."
<Terra> <Vyssa> *heads off, looking worried*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias and Chad head out. SPoC waits for them at the exit.
<Marcus`> You two can stay with Angela. *he points, to raquel and lilith, then steps out himself*
<Kit> 6Lilith nods. 1"Then let us go. We have rampaging to entail."
<Kit> 6Lilith blinks at Marcus.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hops off onto the dark ground.
<DeathStar> 6* So do all his other characters
* Ariel hesitantly heads out into the dark planet. It has her a bit spooked.
<Angela> * Darce hops off.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC leaps down, landing beside Darien. Dias flips out and Chad leaps out.
<Kit> 6Megumi follows Erevis, looking to Cheryl. 1"Lady Cheryl, does that weapon still crack the way it did at me?"
<Marcus`> *Theron glances around. "Interesting."
* Terra follows Megumi
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yep.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Ariel, winking once.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't be scared, Ensign.
<Angela> "I should be helping Marcus..."
<Kit> 6Megumi cracks her knuckles, turning her hands inside out to stretch. 1"Here we go, then."
<Ariel> "...ensign?"
<Chad`Winters> Don't believe her, she's lost her edge ever since she gave birth.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *actually levitates a few inches off the ground*
<Terra> <Vyssa> *takes the rear, blinking at Darien*
<DeathStar> <Darien> A joke.
* Marcus` glances back. "Your choice." He shifts away and then hops out, landing beside Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Dome is quite a trek away. Darien begins to jog forward, holding his burning gut.
* Ariel frowns, almost a pout. "...I don't get it."
<Kit> <Lilith> We will watch the ship, it seems. It does them no good to win if they have no way to escape.
<DeathStar> 6* So do all his other characters
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jogs along, the wrapped Ripple blade on his back.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel frowns and nods...
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves along, keeping her pace.
* Cassandra` proceeds forward, weapon at the ready.
* Marcus` moves along after Dias. Theron moves quietly along as well.
<Kit> 6Megumi paces along, if she exerts she would begin to be short of breath, her sunglasses removed, darkness being her home for sight.
* Angela shakes her head, following after the others.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "... I must be insane..."
<Kit> <Chii> You could always stick with the kids.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina jogs along
* Chad`Winters moves along, he pulls his right pistol out.
<Ariel> Em> "...I wish I had something to drink before this."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, a giant tendril rips through the ship, tearing it into two. It begins to explode.
<Kit> <Chii> Since, you know, three girls versus a dark planet seems a bit unfair.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns around
<Kit> <Chii> See? Told you so.
<Terra> <Vyssa> "..."
<Ariel> 6* Raquel ripples herself and lilith away
<DeathStar> 6* the ship blows up
* Angela turns around and stares.
<Kit> 6Lilith snatches Angela on Marcus' orders.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh God...
<Cassandra`> Oi...
* Marcus` glances behind him. "Angela!?"
<Angela> "Marcus, suddenly happy I ignored you."
* Chad`Winters eyes the ship, a grim look on his face. He glances at Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *cries* My beauty.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sweeeet.
* Marcus` sighs. "...yeah. Keep up the good work."
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I told you that was a bad idea..."
<Cassandra`> We should keep moving before those tendrils get a lock on us.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah. New plan. run
<Angela> "Let's hope we find a way off now."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien breaks out into a run, as tendrils rip up behind then, chasing.
<Kit> <Lilith> ... ...Marukaasusan, you seem to be hazardous to our health.
<Cassandra`> Move out! *runs*
* Angela starts running at full speed.
* Chad`Winters breaks into a full run. SPoC and Dias too.
* Ariel and company fleeeeee towards the dome
<Marcus`> Oh fuck. *he turns and runs after Darien, Theron moving along as well*
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *levitates herself ahead!*
<DeathStar> Scooby Dooby doo, where are youuuuu?
<Kit> 6Lilith levitates, following after Myria.
<Angela> * Darce just keeps moving.
<Kit> 6Chii stares up at those levitating resentfully. 1"...Freyja always did that."
<DeathStar> 6* They reach the dome lately, after a good 3 mile run
<DeathStar> 6* They have a smokey hole in it to enter.
<Kit> 6Megumi falls to one knee, a hand hitting the ground as she pants, wheezing for her breath.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Haa... haa... ugh...
<Cassandra`> ...convenient...
<Chad`Winters> It should be. We made it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I loved my ship
<DeathStar> 6* A man runs out, covered in cuts. "Oh thank God, you got to help me."
<Kit> <Chii> What's the matter, runt? Running unhindered too much?
* Terra pants, leaning over in near exhaustion
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis checks on MEgumi.
<Angela> "I'll... build you another one..."
<Chad`Winters> We'll get you a new one. 6He pats Cheryl's shoulder.
<Kit> <Megumi> Sh...haa... shut ... up...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds his burning gut, wincing in pain
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the man. 1"Who the hell are you?"
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> Wiendigo's kiss continued to burn me.
* Marcus` stretches out. "Man I haven't ran three miles in a long time."
<Cassandra`> ID yourself. *aims at the man*
<DeathStar> <Man> T-They captured me. They--tortured me... 6* He falls to his knees, trembling, looking half-starved.
* Marcus` pauses, eyeing the man.
<Chad`Winters> Why would they do that? 6He studies the man.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel holds her sword distrustingly.
* Angela draws her gun.
<DeathStar> <Man> I-I don't know...
<Kit> <Chii> Don't they assume the memories when they take the soul?
<DeathStar> <Voice> Stand back! That's a Dark One!
<Angela> "THey assume more then memories."
<Marcus`> Well duh. *he says, glancing towards the Voice*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances around for the voice.
<DeathStar> Song: The MAn in Brown - Character
<DeathStar> 6* Standing there, arms crossed dramatically in his brown trench coat, is ... John McCormick?!
<Terra> "... John?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> JOHN?! 6His hands drop in shock.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Mr. John!
<DeathStar> 6* John leaps up, smashing his fist into the man's head, knocking him backwards into the wall.
<Angela> "...JOHN???"
<Ariel> 6* Raquel is STILL distrusting.
<Marcus`> John? Who's that?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... John...?
<Ariel> Em> "...you're dead..."
<DeathStar> 6* The man turns into a Dark One, roaring.
<Kit> <Chii> Um... Just because it's John.. couldn't it still be a dark one?
<DeathStar> <JOhn> Yeah, well, I got better.
* Terra suddenly stands up straight, punching the air. "FUCK YEAH! JOHN'S HERE!"
<DeathStar> 6* John punches the dark one again.
* Angela fires a big bullet into the Dark One.
* Cassandra` fires on the Dark One!
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark One roars and falls over dead.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ..No wait. He's a Dark One! 6He dashes at John and roundhouse kicks at his side.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I don't trust him."
<DeathStar> 6* John turns. "Huh?" 6* He's hit.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Ummm...where have you been...?
<DeathStar> <John> OW! GODDAMMIT DIAS!
<DeathStar> 6* John stumbles.
<Marcus`> *Theron glances at Warren.
<Terra> <Vyssa> *eyes John*
<Angela> "Would you two stop flirting!"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren's eyes are narrowed.
<Kit> 6Chii sort of... sweatdrops. 1"Well, it's not an illusion, once more, but..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... I thought he blew up.
<Angela> "Me too."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina's eyes water. "John...?
<Terra> "As long as John's here, I can fight anything! Even dragoon mechs!"
<DeathStar> <John> Hey, Kat, you're alive! Good for you
<Angela> "But that was the 3rd time I would swear he died."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *pulls out a device and scans John*
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Terra. 1"Is he like Drake to you?"
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, that. *waves his hand* I never blew up, adn you guys totally left me on that planet. And it took me weeks to get off of it
<Terra> "... in a way."
<DeathStar> 6* The scanners have way to much dark energy to detect a dark one
<Terra> "He fuels my fighting spirit."
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs his chin.
<Kit> 6Chii suddenly draws her twin blades as John addresses Katrina.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> The atmosphere is too disruptive to my scan attempts...
<DeathStar> 6* Billy steps out, having been hiding. "Hello, Mr. Dark One Poser Head."
* Angela thinks. "Hey John."
<Angela> "Remember me?"
<DeathStar> 6* John narrows his eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* John grabs Katrina suddenly, putting his arm around her throat.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> What?!
* SPoC has joined #taw
<Cassandra`> He's a Dark One!
<Kit> <Chii> H-how? Fast!
<DeathStar> <John> You little fucking puppet.
<Kit> 6Chii, who was prepared to strike him if he approached, fails to stop. o.o;
* Angela aims her gun at his head.
* Terra rushes at John, punching for his gut... but not using her metal hand
* Marcus` glances from Billy to John. He tenses up, going for his blades. "Well, duh."
<DeathStar> 6* Terra punches Kat instead, since he's using Kat as a shield.
* Chad`Winters has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <JOhn> And here we never used this soul, hoping to fool you all one day.
* Ariel holds her sword, looking for an opening.
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Terra much like she did Angela when she struck Kat -last- time.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy waggles her finger.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *floats over to Setsuna* Miss Setsuna, can you hold something for me?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<DeathStar> 6* Warren holds his gun ready, and Darien holds his energy sword.
<Kit> 6Megumi stands slowly beside Erevis, having regained her breath.
<Marcus`> *Theron has a pistol aimed at John.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...what's that?"
<SPoC> 6Dias punches his hands together. 1"This one's mine."
<DeathStar> <Yet ANOTHER Voice> Why don't you let us handle that, Dias?
* Cassandra` pushes an active psi amp into Setsuna's hands.
<DeathStar> <Darien> What is going on now?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks up.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> pushes an active psi amp into Setsuna's hands.
<SPoC> 6Dias scratches his head confused and he looks aorund. 1"What the hell?"!
<DeathStar> <Warren> *sighs* What is this, a convention
<Kit> 6Chii is clearly hesitating, however, her shared memory of the last time she was in this situation a certain little girl got her neck snapped.
* Marcus` glances for the OTHER voice.
* SPoC is now known as Chad`Winters
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna looks at the pretty toy.
<DeathStar> 6* Standing on a hill, is a clearly older John McCormick, along with ... Michiru McCormick, at the age of 16?
<Angela> "What the..."
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John looks up. "What the fuck?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> John?! 6He looks confused.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches his nose.
<Ariel> Em> "I..." *gapes*
<Angela> "..."
<Cassandra`> ...the future versions...? How did they get into our universe?
<Ariel> Raquel> "...now I'm just confused..."
<Angela> "They can't both be copies... can they?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> FUTURE JOHN! 6He runs towards him.
<Kit> <Lilith> I was never in the know...
<DeathStar> <John McCormick> Michiru wanted to visit. Who am I to say no?
<Marcus`> ...yeah...
<Terra> <Michiru> *waves*
<Cassandra`> You picked a hell of a time!!!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps up and towards Older John.
<Kit> <Megumi> Is this really the time?
<DeathStar> 6* His fists begins to light on fire and leaps out, landing behind the Dark John, and punches him in the back.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hits the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John stumbles, letting go.
<DeathStar> <John McCormick> A hero only visits when in danger!
<Kit> 6Chii darts forward, slashing with both ninjato. 1"Teme!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Michiru, who looks so much like her.
* Cassandra` turns, firing at Dark John's head when he lets go!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> HERO RULE #12!
* Terra is now known as Michiru
<DeathStar> 6* John thumbs up and flashes a hero smile.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias get's up and dashes towards Dark John.
* Ariel fires a pinprick side blast of holy energy at Future John's shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* John blinks.
<DeathStar> <John> *eyes his shoulder*
<Kit> 6Chii aims to slash the dark one version in a twirl of three, keeping aside from shots.
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John is getting hit and again, flailing comically.
* Michiru goes to rush Dark John, then blinks suddenly
<Angela> "That's one way to test, I was gonan see if he knew who I was."
<Marcus`> ...*he frowns, eyeing Ariel* Why did you shoot future John?
<DeathStar> <John> *gasps* MY COAT!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides in low and kicks up, uppercutting Dark john.
<Ariel> "...just to be sure."
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John crumbles away into dust.
<Cassandra`> Hey, John, know any technique to absorb your own soul so it can't be used against us anymore?!
* Marcus` nods once. "That works."
<DeathStar> <Future John> Hm. I don't think we're compatible. Me being from an atlernate future.
<Kit> <Chii> ...I do.
<Ariel> Em> "...was John always that weak?"
* Chad`Winters looks over at John. 1"How'd you manage to get back here?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits there, holding her face, taking deep breaths
<Ariel> 6* Em frowns at the remains of John
<Michiru> <Terra> "We've just gotten stronger. MUCH stronger."
<DeathStar> <Future John> Well, it's a long story.
<Kit> <Chii> ...But..." 6Eyes the dust. 1"It needs to be alive, still."
* Angela hops up over to him, she signs, "Long time no see."
<Chad`Winters> You can skip it than. 6He checks his gun.
<DeathStar> <Future John> You see, we're here to tell you that you all become assholes in the future.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel shivers, "...I'd be hesitant to take anything here..."
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "... wonderful."
<DeathStar> 6* Future John does a sign back asking if Angela's boobs are real.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy kinda stares, not having a witty line.
<Ariel> Em> "...what do you mean, in the future?"
* Angela nods.
<Cassandra`> ...can we defeat threat to freedom and life in the universe first...?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis studies Michiru quietly, uncomfortable.
<Angela> "Yep, it's John."
<Marcus`> Katrina? Are you alright?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's Seraphna. 6He motions to her.
<Ariel> Em> "Haven't you MET these people?"
<Michiru> "It's okay mom..."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren waves his hands. "WHAT. THE. HELL. IS. GOING. ON?"
<Kit> 6Chii kneels toward the ground and dust, to analyze if the dark energies and such have left yet.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at Warren's emotional outbreak
<Ariel> Raquel> "...don't ask that... please..."
<Angela> "Reunions Warren."
<Kit> <Megumi> I know nothing whatsoever.
<Angela> "John here is an old friend."
<Michiru> "Oh, I'm Erevis' daughter from an alternate future, back to help save the day."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Dude, you broke Warren. High Five. 6He holds his hand out to John
<DeathStar> 6* John high fives Dias. "Dude, you got your hair still.
<Marcus`> Whoa whoa. Dias looses his hair?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...I lost my hair?"
* Ariel just shakes her head. "...back to reality saving?"
<DeathStar> <John> I'm afraid so. Bald as a baby.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I make it look good tho, right?
* Marcus` points and laughs at Dias.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *floats over* Mr. John...we need your help.
<DeathStar> <John> Ehhh. *waves his hands*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Damn't. 6He scowls.
<Michiru> <Terra> *high fives John* "You're still awesome. Hey... am I really an asshole in the future?"
<Michiru> "..."
<DeathStar> <John> I'd be glad to help you, Myria. Let me show you to my office. 6* He leads her behind some rocks.
<Marcus`> *Theron narrows his eyes.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...I don't mean like that! The universe is in peril.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, right. Right. The good fight. Well, lets do it. Lunar Girl, get to it. 6* He points at the Dome.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oooh, apparently your skills have declined in your old age. 6He points at him.
<Michiru> "Onwards! To victory!"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes his gun, then debates ending things
<Angela> "Yep, she's John's kid alright."
<Kit> <Chii> ...Nothing left to assimilate. Katrina, are you alright?
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs the back of his head. "What the hell?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... I'm fine. 6* She stands up, smiling at Older John. "Good to see you."
<Kit> 6Megumi frowns at the whole affair, then begins walking into the dome.
<DeathStar> <John> And you, Kat.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel stands up on her toes to pat Warren on the shoulder. "...don't think... it'll hurt less..."
<DeathStar> 6* John pats Myria's ass and walks onward.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hang with John, his mouth rattling on about all his adventures and the sweet things he's done
<Marcus`> *Theron narrows his eyes furthur, eyeing his gun.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Back to things I understand.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "... does it ever get easier?"
* Chad`Winters moves along, a neutral look on his face.
* Cassandra` looks into the hole in the dome...
* Angela moves to Marcus. "Ready to go?"
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC stands by Warren
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks along, even quieter.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sighs and walks on. "Think less. Yes."
<Michiru> <Terra> *walks along, in high spirits*
* Marcus` stands there a moment, then glances at Angela. "Oh...yeah. Right." He begins to move.
* Michiru leads the way
<Marcus`> *Theron moves after them, still watching John like a hawk.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And so I've been forced to have Marcus as my side-kick and let me tell you...Ehhhh. 6He waves his mands
<DeathStar> <John> It's okay. He's dead in our reality.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *floats after...
* Angela walks with Marcus. Eyeing him curiously.
* Ariel and others stick along.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks behind Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Drake> Boy, this makes no sense.
* Marcus` walks along, ignoring them talking about him, he stares ahead.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> God you're lucky. Did you know he knocked up Angela who's Seraphna?
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "Try not to think about it too much."
<Kit> 6Megumi keeps her watch wary, seeing easy in darkness since she was born on a dark, dying planet.
<DeathStar> 6* As they enter the dome, the air gets thicker, with the cliched term of evil. It literally feels as if this place is a living hell. As they walk, the ground makes a sickening crunch sound - and they can see they are walking on the bodies of dead, fused into the ground to become prat of it.
<DeathStar> <John> Ooooooo.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's freakign sweet.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "... this is disturbing."
<Ariel> 6* Em is creeped out
<Kit> <Megumi> Be quiet. It is hard enough to listen.
<DeathStar> <John> In our reality, Seraphna knocked up you, but that's another story.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna is uncomfortable.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No way.
<Marcus`> *Theron peers around silently.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the ground, looking a bit grim.
* Ariel is trying to focus to ignore this
<Ariel> 6* Raquel doesn't seem to care.
<DeathStar> 6* The dead seem to silently scream.
<Michiru> <Terra> *doesn't seem to care either*
<Kit> 6Chii leaps from sets of bones to other sets, quietly.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks along
<Kit> 6Lilith floats above them, not making a sound, but this side of her personality quite repulsed.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh dude. You gotta see this sweet new talent I can do now.
* Marcus` glances down. "..." He glances at Angela, frowning slightly before looking ahead again.
* Cassandra` switches to multi spectrum view...
<DeathStar> <Voice> Well. So the heroes finally arrived. 6* Up ahead, a giant pile of dead bodies leads up in a twisted nightmare. A man with blue hair, and a blue outfit stands there. He seems androgenius
<Angela> "Don't let it get to you."
* Angela blinks, looking up. "Who the fuck now..."
<Michiru> "He looks blue."
<DeathStar> Song: Coleseium
* Marcus` glances at Angela, before looking ahead.
<Kit> <Chii> Eh, not often you see people with the colours of the light kid and the mutt.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks up, not recognizing him. Erevis recoils.
<Kit> <Lilith> Urusai...
<Michiru> <Terra> "Who's that?"
<Marcus`> <Theron> Who is this?
* Ariel feels like she's missing something.
* Chad`Winters studies the man.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ....I don't know...
<DeathStar> <Man> Pardon me, let me introduce myself
<DeathStar> <Man> I am Logos. The last living of the three fates.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fates? 6He scratches his head.
<Angela> "...Right."
<DeathStar> 6* John scratches his head.
<Marcus`> Who exactly were the other two fates?
<DeathStar> <Logos> You will not remember me, in your current forms, but you all killed my two brothers, Ethos and Pathos in the old reality.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Well... if two are already down, that makes me feel better."
<Kit> <Lilith/Chii/Megumi> Did not.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> *seems puzzled there*
<DeathStar> <Logos> That is not logically sound.
<Angela> "You all? I didn't."
<Cassandra`> I didn't have any counterpart in that reality...
<Ariel> Em> "Yeah, me niether."
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "I do not believe I had a counterpart either."
<Ariel> Raquel> "...other reality?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh, uhh sorry?
<DeathStar> <Logos> *waves his hand* Unimportant. The threads of fate have brought you all here, in either event. Your connection to the past is tied with those who were there.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...what other reality?"
<Kit> 6Chii tosses her hand, sending a single dark flame for 'Logos.'
<DeathStar> 6* Logos holds up a hand and repels the dark flame before it even gets close.
<DeathStar> <Logos> How illogical, attacking that which you do not know.
* Chad`Winters hold his gun steady at his side as he waits
<Angela> "The Origin universe, where everyone came from. Wind's universe."
<Kit> 6Megumi turns her head, frowning at Chii.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think I heard about Logos.

<Michiru> <Vyssa> "Ah. I was not there."
* DeathStar has quit IRC (Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by DS[Zoom])))
* DS[Zoom] is now known as DeathStar
<Angela> "People of this universe are mere shadows compared to what they were in the other world."
* ChanServ sets mode: +o DeathStar
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think I heard about Logos.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hey! I take great offense to that.
<Michiru> <Terra> "You mean I was even stronger there? DAMN."
<DeathStar> <Logos> So you have all come to my web to untangle it?
<Marcus`> Wouldn't take much. *he smiles teasingly at Terra*
<Chad`Winters> Untangle you're web? 6He eyes Logos oddly
<Cassandra`> What about those of us who were not represented in the other world...sheesh...
<Kit> 6Chii blinks a few times and throws another flame at Logos.
<DeathStar> <Logos> I am the master of this place. I am the Dark Ones' servant in wielding the souls of the dead.
<Michiru> <Terra> "Hey, watch it. I'm pretty damn strong, you know."
<DeathStar> 6* Logos holds up a head, and suddenly the flame, and half of chii's life force is sapped away.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "I am sorry to hear that."
<DeathStar> <Logos> Do not be stupid.
* Marcus` holds up both hands. "Right, right."
<Kit> <Chii> A-ah! Shi-shimata...
<DeathStar> <Logos> You are all in the center of hell.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leans towards John. 1"This guys pretty strong..."
<Kit> <Megumi> Hrmph.
<DeathStar> <John> Too strong
<DeathStar> <Logos> I do not need to build reality, when your souls are already mine now.
<Kit> 6Chii staggers and falls to her knees, wide-eyed.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Tch.
<Angela> "...So you're behind this?"
<Ariel> 6* Raquel tries to support Chii...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Probably should just leave, eh?
<Michiru> <Vyssa> *watches Logos, looking for a weak point*
<DeathStar> <Logos> I will bring back my two brothers, and we'll serve our masters for all time as the three fates. But, as you rash, emotional beings are --- let me give you what you want. A fight
<Kit> <Megumi> No, he is just a dog, like I used to be.
<Kit> <Megumi> He said he was a servant, after all.
<DeathStar> 6* Logos snaps his finger, and suddenly, every dead character, friend or foe, stand there before the team.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien blinks as the army rises.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "Wow."
<Kit> 6Chii clenches her teeth, looking for Freyja, probably.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Now this, this I can definetly take care of.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade and Cran stand there, side by side. Warren and John as well.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh hey!
<Michiru> <Fox> *looks over the group, then looks to Logos*
<Angela> "This is going to get bloody confusing."
<Marcus`> *Xanatos stands amongst the people, eyes focued onto Erevis.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hey there's you! 6He points at John.
<DeathStar> <Logos> Kill them for them for the masters, and harvest their souls.
<DeathStar> <John> Totally uncool.
<Ariel> Em> "...you know. I think we're out numbered."
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts* Very.
<Kit> <Megumi> I care not.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You won't get mad if I beat you up, will you?
<DeathStar> Song: Dark Ones - Battle
* Chad`Winters hmpfs and he pulls out Ebony.
<DeathStar> <John> Not at all.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve steps forward, sizing up Chad.
* Angela draws her sword.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tenses.
<Kit> 6Megumi stands before Erevis slightly. 1"I will crush anything that tries to harm Erevis or whom she charges."
<DeathStar> 6* Logos turns and vanishes.
* Chad`Winters 's face falters briefly as he eyes Eve.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Chad. 6* she smiles sadly.
<DeathStar> <Cran> My wayward daughter. Come to take up arms against me?
<Chad`Winters> Eve...Don't make me do this.
<Marcus`> *Xan slowly steps forward.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Please, Chad. Just --- stop this.
<Angela> "You're a Dark One... you're not him."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Good. 6He dashes in towards John, running low.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> ... why...?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands her ground, forming her boy shakily
* Ariel eyes Spade. If she has to focus on someone...
<DeathStar> 6* John dashes in after Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Avalon steps in front of Ariel, holding his sword.
<Chad`Winters> You know I can't Eve, for Aya's sake I can't.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are...not Xanatos ...
<Marcus`> <Xan> Erevis. *he holds his arms out open* I told you. We'd be together soon. All you have to do is lay down your weapons.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva looks over at Katrina.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Shiva...
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Kat...My love.
<Kit> 6Megumi stays afront Erevis, holding up her hands to the palm method.
<Kit> <Megumi> Mister Durran would not want her to roll over and die.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias flips forward, and plants his hand, kicking out at John's chest.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tch. This is just a diversion.
<DeathStar> 6* Logos reappears, sitting.
<Marcus`> <Xan> You. Stay out of this. *he points to Megumi*
<DeathStar> <Logos> Of course. Darien Starr - Death Star. Have you come all this way for the truth? Or a grave?
* Angela readies herself, keeping her sword ready.
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John dodges around, grinning
<Kit> <Megumi> I cannot.
<DeathStar> <Darien> How? How do you attain souls?
<Chad`Winters> I will not let these things take our child's soul again Eve.
<Kit> 6Chii punches the ground. 1"...Katrina, she's not here."
* Ariel salutes Avalon... even if he's an enemy, she'll still respect his spirit... and then takes up a defensive stance.
<Marcus`> *Kane steps around Xan, looking to Megumi. "I will handle her, brother."
<Kit> <Megumi> Who the hell are you?
<DeathStar> <Logos> With our ultimate weapon. You are, literally, standing on it. 6* The ground begins to shake, and suddenly a hooded figure, with a lock of brown hair, is visible, rising like a giant, and holding a scythe. For some, they would see he looks like the spectre of death.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> There's been enough dieing Kat...
<DeathStar> 6* Avalon pulls out his sword
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You're not Shiva!
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pulls out her sword.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> It's so sad that you still struggle...
<DeathStar> <Darien> No. 6* His eyes widen.
<Marcus`> *Xan looks to Kane, then rests his eyes back onto Erevis. "Please. You love me, right? You want to be with me, right? It's easy."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> That hurts Kat. I died to save your life.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel attempts to stab Ceilidh in the back with her blade... she looks like an easy target.
<DeathStar> <Logos> The concept of death is merely a tool. You know who's soul is in that, don't you, DS?
<Marcus`> <Kane> It matters not. Let's begin. *he pulls his fists up*
* Angela blinks, her eyes focusing. "You're all... targets..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts and hops onto his feet, throwing a barrage of punches towards dark John
<DeathStar> 6* Spade leaps over Angela, landing behind her.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *ducks away from the blade*
* Angela stabs her blade behind her, spinning to defend.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... 6* She begins to walk toward Xanatos.
* Chad`Winters shifts his aim, firing two shots to people beside Eve.
<Ariel> Em> *smacks Hotaru with telekinesis... she lets her anger fuel her for this* "...pale... imitation."
<Kit> 6Lilith kneels, holding up the rail blade. She aims for Ceilidh's dodge pattern and fires.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve dashes forward, uppercutting Chad.
<Marcus`> *Xan reaches a hand out. "Just take my hand. And we'll be together."
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... that hurts, you know... especially from you..."
* Chad`Winters 's head snaps back and he stumbles, quickly holstering his guns.
<DeathStar> <Logos> You can't save him, Death Star. N
<DeathStar> <Logos> He's beyond hope.
<Kit> <Megumi> Erevis! Do not be fooled!
<DeathStar> 6* Warren fights his counter part.
* Ariel moves towards Avalon, bringing her crystal blade down with enough force to cleave his head from his shoulders.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tenses.
<DeathStar> 6* Avalon dodges to the side.
<Marcus`> *Kane slides forward to punch Megumi in the mouth.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins sliding back from John's attacks.
<Michiru> <Terra> *moves to intercept, attempting to punch Kane in the gut*
<DeathStar> 6* John chases the Dark John around with Dias.
<Kit> 6Megumi shifts and slams her hand upward, palm striking his wrist to knock it off pattern but not allow him to lose the momentum.
<Ariel> Em> "...we did this before. I won't let you disgrace my friend!" *fires at Hotaru with her pistol*
<Marcus`> *Theron battles Cole in the background.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> 's gown shifts into form-fitting body armor, light blade popping into her hands...
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Megumi's victims from Famfrit tackle her.
<Angela> * Darce tangos with Airier.
<DeathStar> 6* Her parents are there, too.
<Kit> <Megumi> A-agh!
<Marcus`> *Kane pauses, smiling.
<DeathStar> 6* Bells ring behind Chii.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> *knocks the shots away with her scythe, then sighs* "It has to be the hard way, then..."
* Ariel swings around, firing a holy beam at Avalon.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina slashe sat shiva.
* Chad`Winters looks at Eve, a frustrated look on his face.
<Michiru> <Terra> *rushes Kane, punching at him repeatedly*
<DeathStar> 6* Eve spinkicks at Chad's face.
<Kit> 6Chii looks over her shoulder, having not risen yet.
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja stands there.
* Chad`Winters throws his hands upto block it
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns from Xan, as Megumi is gang banged.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Kuso.
* Angela preses her stab into an attack, keeping Spade off the offensive.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve goes low, kicking up.
<Ariel> Em> "...I'll save Hotaru from you. I promise you that."
<Cassandra`> Setsuna...back to back, alright?
<Michiru> <Hotaru> *moves forwards to slash at Em*
<Marcus`> *Kane twists and jumps back, the ground below him exploding as Terra moves forward.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade leaps to the side.
* Angela swings her blade to follow him, she's gotten faster.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...M-mother! ...Agh!" 6She slams her palm into the famfrit commander's head, smashing it into the ground, but seems reluctant to strike her own parents.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade dodges inhumanly.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva leaps back, sliding. 1"I always knew you didn't love me..."
<Michiru> <Terra> *jumps back*
<Marcus`> *Xan steps forward. "...Erevis. You would turn your back on us?"
* Angela leaps back, bringing Cran and Spade in sight.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Well, can't let a good rear go to waste." *loads an anti-dark grenade*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy holds her crystals, beginning to attempt to work some magic.
* Chad`Winters shifts his leg, letting it connect, he brings his right hand in, palm striking Eve in the chest.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> Isn't it hopeless...?
<Marcus`> *Kane laughs as he steps through the smoke from his explosives. "Fancy that. You decide to fight me? That's curious."
<Kit> 6Chii turns and rises, drawing both of her straight edges in a single fluid motion. 1"Freyja, it's time to come home."
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja fires light arrows at Chii.
<Michiru> <Terra> "..."
<DeathStar> <Freyja> You are the wayward one, Chii.
<Michiru> <Terra> *rushes into the midst of the Famfrits instead, having no qualms about hurting them herself*
<Kit> 6Chii shifts to her right quickly, then dodges left before more arrive. 1"...Hrmph, you embraced the light, not the darkness. For you to say that?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> Spirits of beyond, souls of scatterd across old worlds and new, hear my calls. 6* she breaks her remaining crystals, and the giant Death trembles momentarily as a new soul is formed.
<DeathStar> <Logos> What the hell?
* Marcus` slides beside Angela. "Looks like you could use some help."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Hey, if you can do it, I can, too. Never open a door, Logos.
<DeathStar> 6* The new soul is - Wiendigo.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> "..."
<Angela> "Spade can see several seconds into the future, and watch out for Cran's arm."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade fires a dark beam into Angela.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Xanatos. "I do miss you." 6* she seems fevered again.
* Angela tackles Marcus to the ground.
* Wiendigo reaches his hand outward and flexes it a few times
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns to face Wiendigo.
* Marcus` arches a brow, tackled.
<Chad`Winters> 6A shockwave erupts from where Dias/John/DarkJohn are fighting, sending a group of people tumbling backwards. Dias stands there, black marks creeping all over his face and into his eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy falls on her ass, looking tired.
* Wiendigo turns to Darien
<DeathStar> Song: Parallels - Character
* Angela corrects her blade as she helps him back up. "Shit..."
<Ariel> Em> "... if you're trying to demoralize me, then it can't be hopeless."
<Marcus`> <Xan> I know. I miss you too. Ever day, I miss you. Please, come with me.
<Wiendigo> You look like shit.
<DeathStar> <Dark John> Okay, that's it. 6* He punches Dias.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... that's not it at all..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ... I will free your soul.
<Cassandra`> Setsuna...to Billy...move. *heads over toward Billy*
<DeathStar> 6* John slides up to Dias. "We need to learn some combos, pal."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna fires the grenade into the crowd of enemies, and hurries towards Billy
<Marcus`> *Xan makes a face. "Don't do this."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wiendigo? Aren't you dead?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis hesitattes.
<Kit> 6Lilith holds her hand out toward Ceilidh after missing, grinding the weight of gravity down on her. 1"Ojousama, now!"
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja begins to chant, and tries to trap Chii in a trap.
* Angela quick draws her gun and fires at Spade.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Tisk, Watch this. 6He throws his hand up catching the punch, his speed increased. He opens his hand and forms a dark beam, launching it into Dark John's hand
<DeathStar> 6* Of dark tendrils.
<Kit> <Chii> Oh hell no! I hate those animes!
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John howls. Old John goes flame on, punching Dark john at Dias.
* Wiendigo grins, turning to face Logos. "Yeah. And I was enjoying it."
<Kit> 6Chii arcs her hand, sending a pair of kunai for Freyja.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> "... you'd attack someone so defenceless?"
<DeathStar> <Logos> Tch.
<Chad`Winters> Shiva pulls out a blade and holds it out at Kat
* Marcus` stands up and faces Cran. He rotates his blades.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I could kill you again, if you want.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran eyes Marcus.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina dashes to Shiva's left, slashing.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel opens a ripple to stab Freyja in the side. She's still ticked at the Darkones taking that one.
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja blinks as she's stabbed.
<Wiendigo> How about we save that for later. Got some bigger prey to gut.
<Marcus`> <Xan> Please. I miss you so much.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> RISING METEOR! 6He squats and flips kicks upwards as Dark John comes to him, kicking him into the air towards John
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *kicks something, probably a rock, towards Raquel*
* Marcus` rushes in now, slashing out for Cran's chest.
* Wiendigo lets his claws out and stands ready to attack, turned in Logos direction.
<Kit> 6Lilith, having been focusing on Ceilidh, leans forward, forming a repelling well to jab the object back at her.
<DeathStar> 6* John leaps up, and knocks Darky John back.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva parries and slides along the blade, moving close to Kat. 1"You replace me with that little twat, huh?
* Angela keeps firing at Spade.
<Ariel> 6* Em creates a telekinetic explosion under Hotaru, then opens fire when she's airborn
<DeathStar> 6* Logos holds up his hand. "Soul of a decayed world, return to the abyss."
<Kit> 6* Chii takes the opportunity by Raquel to dart back to the right and leap for Freyja, her knee pushed forward to strike.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stans by Wiendigo. "Lets do it."
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja is hit.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> *knocks the shots away, then throws her scythe at Em*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias throws three punches into Dark John then spin kicks him back at John
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lets her guard down momentarily.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> "..." *catches it*
* Wiendigo flips Logos the bird. "Your mojo ain't working on me, bitch."
<DeathStar> 6* John catches Dark john on fire. "HOT POTATO!"
<DeathStar> <Logos> ... *looks mad. Ironic, for the fate of logic only*
<Marcus`> *Xan smiles and reaches out to grasp her shoulders.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Xanatos...I love you...
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Erevis! Wake ...u-UP!" 6With Terra's help, throws her hands out, her force manifest tossing the group a small distance off of her.
<Ariel> 6* Em goes to punch the scythe, a wave of telekinetic energy around her hand to send it flying back at Hotaru fast than she threw it
<Marcus`> *Kane shifts between Megumi and Erevis, shaking his finger.
<Michiru> * It explodes as it gets close
<Marcus`> <Xan> And I, you.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran fires a dark blal at Marcus
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias smiles cockilly as he steps back and claps his hands together, forming a Dark Matter ball. 1"COMING AT YOU HOT!" 6He plants it into Dark John's back as he comes at him then shoves off, sending him spiraling towards John
<DeathStar> 6* John forms a giant fireball, slamming it into Dark john. He screams as he's destroyed.
<Ariel> 6* Em is hit by the heatwave, but still sends the molten metal and shrapnel back at Hotaru
* Wiendigo charges blindly towards Logos, lustful with rage and a taste for blood.
* Chad`Winters slides back, blood on his lip.
<Kit> 6Chii leans and rolls along the ground back to her feet, running sideways. She's not going to be caught flat-footed against those damned arrows. She studies Freyja for another opening.
* Marcus` rolls to the side, tossing his smoking coat off, he wolfs out and dives at Cran.
<DeathStar> Song: spaded Redux
* Michiru rushes forwards, launching a flying kick at Xanatos, or Kane if he gets in the way. "MOM! WAKE UP!"
<Kit> <Megumi> You... I have no business with you, get out of the way!
<DeathStar> 6* Spade grabs Angela suddenly, having warped forward.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I'll kill your babies.
* Angela gasps and stabs at him. "NO!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis puts her arms around Xanatos.
<Marcus`> *Kane knocks Michiru aside.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias dusts his hands off he points at his new look. 1"Eh? Eh? didn't I tell you?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade knees the blade up.
<DeathStar> 6* John thumbs up.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Forever, right?
<Kit> 6Megumi charges Kane, one palm low and upturned, the other reaching out for him. As he knocks Michiru, she thrusts the right forward.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Lackies or the big guy? 6He moitons about
<DeathStar> 6* Darien charges after Wiendigo.
* Angela kicks out at him, trying to break free.
<DeathStar> 6* Logos fires a beam at Wiendigo.
<DeathStar> <Logos> Just ... DIE!
<DeathStar> 6* Spade is forced to let go.
<Michiru> <Terra> *joins Megumi in fighting Kane*
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva knee's Kat in the stomach and shoves her off.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stumbles back. She slashes at Shiva's rightleg
<DeathStar> 6* Eve does a wang-chu punch
* Wiendigo leaps up into the air over the beam, holding his claws out in front as he flies towards Logos. "Been there, already fucking did that!"
* Angela skids back and hops to her feet, putting her gun away she takes her sword in both hands.
<Angela> "When the hell does this fight end!"
<Marcus`> *Kane glances at Megumi and Terra, he shakes his head, jumping back, slight explosions appearing below them. "Eager fools."
<DeathStar> 6* Logos grabs Wiendigo's arm. "Then perhaps I'll put your soul into hell for eternity as a Dark One."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods.
* Chad`Winters shifts his right hand, knocking it off the side, he then sweeps his leg between hers and twists, aiming to hip throw her.
<DeathStar> <Spade> It'll never end. We'll come back over and over
<DeathStar> 6* Dark John rises behind Dias again.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve is thrown.
* Wiendigo smirks. "Buddy, you ain't seen Hell."
<Chad`Winters> 6Blood flings of from her leg. She swings her blade towards Kat's side
<Marcus`> *Xan pulls out a knife. "I will make this quick."
<Michiru> <Terra> *jumps to avoid the worst of the blast, and let it buffet her higher, coming down with a descending axe kick*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina is cut in the side.
<Kit> 6Megumi soars upward, charred and bloody on one side, covered in crystal on the other, and as she arcs downward, is brandishing the zanbato. 1"Die, you insolent freak!"
* Angela glares, "Spade... if you're really there..."
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja vanishes across the battlefield, as if taunting Chii.
* Wiendigo slashes at Logos' face with a wide swing
<Marcus`> *Kane pulls up his arm, blocking Terra's kick, he shifts to throw her into megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis suddenly shoves her bo through XAnatos' gut.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You know this would be the time that the recently defeated rival would come back for one last attack. 6He looks over at John
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, he's there.
<Marcus`> *Xan widens his eyes, glancing down. "You..."
<Kit> <Megumi> Terra, get your metal arm up!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis kisses his lips.
* Angela readies her blade again. "Then I'll free you."
<DeathStar> 6* Logos is cut along his face. He breaks Wiendigo's arm, but before he can follow up, Darien stabs him as well
<Michiru> <Terra> *knocks into Megumi, looking to her as she recovers* "Are you okay?" *She then launches a powerful uppercut at Kane with her metal arm, flames surrounding it* "BUSTER WOLF!"
<DeathStar> <Spade> You can try.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Do they ever learn in the future?
<DeathStar> <John> 'fraid not.
<Marcus`> *Xan's blinks, then his faces shifts to anger. "No. NO!" He reaches out and dark tendrils blast up from the ground, aiming to pull latch onto Erevis, one specifically latches around her throat.
<Kit> 6Megumi curses as Terra reacts too slow, throwing her zanbato into the ground beside Kane inside as she falls with Terra. She holds up her hand and snaps.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well it's good to know I'll have a job then. 6He turns to face Dark John
* Wiendigo cries out in pain, but brings his other arm back around; a ball of crackling energy forming in his palm
<Kit> <Megumi> I am fine." 6The sword shatters.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis suddenly screams in surprise, freaking out.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs Logos from behind so he can't dodge.
<DeathStar> <Logos> Are you both MAD?
* Angela takes a relaxed stance, holding her blade loosely.
<Marcus`> *Kane smiles and flips to the right. "So easy. Come'on, you're better than."
* Wiendigo looks at Darien.
<Kit> <Chii> This isn't a game, sis.
<Wiendigo> Like hatters.
<Chad`Winters> Stop this now Eve.
<Kit> 6Chii finally pauses, eyeing Freyja staight-on.
* Michiru rushes at Xanatos while Kane is distracted, launching a punch at his back
<DeathStar> <Freyja> Y-You're right, Chii. Please...absorb my soul.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's no fun being sane, Logos. Where's the logic in it?
<Angela> "Come then."
<Kit> <Chii> The hell?
<DeathStar> 6* Logos twists.
<Marcus`> *Xan struggles to stand, eyeing Erevis. "You ruined it. YOU RUINED IT!" He turns and has both of his pistols out, he fires at Michiru.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Chii! No!
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Where's the intensity Kat, that fire inside you I enjoyed so well?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You bitch!
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina slashes at her throat.
<Kit> 6Chii looks toward Billy briefly. 1"...What?"
* Wiendigo fires his energy blast at Logos
<DeathStar> Song: IPCC Blast
<DeathStar> 6* Logos screams as he's hit, his skin and flesh tearing away, revealing inner organs which drop out
* Wiendigo drops to the ground as Logos melts away
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva blocks and she sweep kicks at her legs.
* Marcus` does battle with Cran still.
<Kit> <Chii> I'm not stupid. She has my soul, unless I beat the shit out of her, she can absorb me far easier.
<DeathStar> <Billy> If you retake Freyja's soul, the entireity of the dark ones will soak into you, and spread. It's a trap.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Billy.
* Angela has a stand off with Spade.
<DeathStar> <Billy> The only way to beat them - is for either you or Warren to die and let yourselves be sucked back into the collective. You can cripple them forever.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade fires dark beams rapidly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien falls, holding his own stomach.
<Michiru> * Ceildh has vanished in the confusion, seemingly
<Kit> <Chii> That's why I need to be there the moment that piece of shit dies.
<DeathStar> <Darien> TOo slow--to dodge...humanity...
<Kit> <Chii> But thanks, Billy.
<Kit> 6She pauses again. Chii's eyes widening. 1"Wh-what!?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> *shakes her head* Very well. If you take her soul back, then you'll get Freyja back,b ut at the cost of stopping them.
* Angela dodges each one, she times herself, leaping to one side and slashing at him.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos growls and steps forward, leaning down to touch Erevis' cheek. "How frightened you look. If only you had listened."
<Kit> <Chii> You little ...That was the vials!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis strains.
<Kit> <Chii> You gambled on one of the two of us, damn it.
<DeathStar> <Billy> I did
<DeathStar> 6* Warren frowns, eyeing his counter part.
* Michiru punches Xanatos in the back?
* Wiendigo sits up, holding his arm, then looks to Darien. "Well, fuck. Forgot what pain was like."
<Kit> 6Chii grips her ninjatos angrily. 1"..."
<Ariel> "Darien!"
<Marcus`> *Xan turned and shot at Michi, aiming to get her to retreat.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *laughs* Pain is what keeps it real, Wien.
<Kit> 6Megumi stands slowly, cracking both her knuckles.
* Michiru retreats then, at least enough to not get hit
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes limp, her eyes closing.
<Kit> <Megumi> Okay, you son of a bitch. Apparently I cannot play defensive with you.
* Wiendigo lights up his signature smelly cigar. "Yeah, kinda forgot what reality was like, too."
<DeathStar> Song: If Everyone Cared
<DeathStar> 6* Darien falls back, laying on his back, feeling death approaching.
<Marcus`> *Xan kneels beside her, he holds the knife in his hands.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well I suppose we should finish him then eh? 6He crosses his arms.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chii.
<DeathStar> <John> Lets do it
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina grabs shiva in a bear hug, throwing htem over onto some bones.
* Ariel attempts to make her way towars Darien
* Wiendigo looks around, then stabs Logos heart laying on the ground. Wien takes a big ol' bite out of it and chomps away.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias dashes in at Dark John.
<DeathStar> 6* Nothing stops Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Future John follows.
<Kit> 6Megumi grins slightly as she covers her arms and legs in crystal, forming the claws but to a greater degree than when she fought Erevis. Then leans forward. 1"Brother, eh? You are nothing like him, though."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam appears behind C Assandra
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva drops her blade as shes tackled to the ground. She struggles to break free.
<DeathStar> <Adam> Hey, babe.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna shoots Adam.
* Michiru bursts into flame, standing beside Megumi, ready
<DeathStar> 6* Adam falls over.
<Kit> 6Chii slowly turns her gaze to Warren, callousedly angry.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ...
<Marcus`> <Kane> Yes. Different mothers. Though I imagine we're much more alike than you realize. *he shifts out, holding two knives*
<Michiru> <Terra> *does the flame thing*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds up a hand to Ariel.
* Angela continues to do battle with Spade.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps forward, throwing a knee towards Dark John's head
* Ariel practically throws herself at Darien, drawing upon her energy to try to do something about his wound before it's too late.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade backflips, kicking at Angela's gut.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm sorry, Ariel. But I gotta die. It's the only way...to reach him...
* Wiendigo looks back to Darien in his death throwes. "Guess we have a real problem staying alive, eh?"
* Marcus` claws and bites at Cran.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts a hand to Ariel's face.
* Angela blocks with a knee, skidding back, slashing at him.
* Michiru keeps trying to move in on Xanatos, hoping to at least distract him from Erevis
<Kit> 6Megumi dashes straight for him, apparently not carrying about true dodging or her short timeframe of true fighting. 1"We will see!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays limp in the vines, looking dead.
<Ariel> "To reach him... what are you talking about...? Darien..."
<Marcus`> *Suddenly dark tendrils launch up to bring Michiru to the ground.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Garland. He's in there. Calling out to me to save him. If I die--my soul will go through him...and I can try to reach him. I'm sorry.
<Marcus`> *Xan reaches out, trying to draw her sould out, since she seems dead.
<Marcus`> NRP: soul*
* Cassandra` twists, kicking at Adam
<Michiru> <Terra> *rushes forwards with frightening speed, launching a flurry of kicks and punches at Kane*
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is kicked back. "Whoa, whoa, water under the bridge, babes."
<Ariel> "But..."
* Michiru ignites a beam saber, trying to cut the tendrils
<Cassandra`> ...huh?
* Angela follows the slash with another violent one, her eyes lighting. "I'll live!"
<Kit> 6Megumi dispenses with formalities for once. 1"Terra, get the hell out of the way!
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> LEt me go!"
<Marcus`> *Kane shifts left and right, blocking the kicks as he needs to.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles. "I can't abandon him. Some of us...we're justn ot meant for this world." 6* He peers at wiendigo.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *pauses* "...wait..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> No!
<DeathStar> <Adam> Okay, I'm lying. I'm a dark one
<DeathStar> 6* Adam fires into Setsuna's gut.
<DeathStar> <Adam> And now, I've killed your lover, CAssandra.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Well, Warren?
<DeathStar> 6* Adam cackles.
* Cassandra` fires at Adam's head, point blank!
<Michiru> <Terra> *moves to ensure that she doesn't get too close to Megumi's strikes*
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... One of us has to do it.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam falls over dead.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna rolls with it as best she can... but armour is only so good.
<Cassandra`> Setsuna! *moves over to Sets!
* Wiendigo pulls himself over next to Darien, sitting there.
<Marcus`> *Xan arches a brow and stands, looking to Megumi. "Kane. I'll deal with her." He shifts to face Megumi.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> *keeps moving, firing on Dark Ones, while trying to avoid being hit*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I love you, Ariel. 6* He tells her.
<Kit> 6Megumi focuses, sprinting all at once to reach Kane, figuring to only pull off one strike, slaming her dominant left hand forward with all her focus-- She puts the force in it that sent Marcus into a tree, aiming Kane himself at Xanatos. 1"Just try it!"
* Chad`Winters pants as he looks over at Eve, he holds his stance.
* Angela keeps slashing, dodging, doing battle.
<DeathStar> Song: Full of Grace
<DeathStar> 6* Eve pants as well.
<Cassandra`> ...how is it..?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wiendigo. Can you stab me in the heart? I have to reach Garland.
<Marcus`> *Kane nods, laughing at Megumi, he smacks her forward before he's slammed back, Xan just moves to avoid him.
* Ariel kisses Darien and stops trying to keep him alive... if he's certain on this... she can't fight it. "...I'll see you again."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien returns the kiss.
<Kit> <Chii> Then it might as well be me. I want to be with my sister, after all, and you'll be glad to be rid of me.
<Michiru> <Terra> *rushes in as Megumi is knocked back, striking at Kane while he's distracted*
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Tch. I'll do it.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren rubs his forehead tiredly.
* Wiendigo takes a long drag on the cigar. "Didn't think you'd hold me to that promise, old man."
<Kit> <Chii> You have kids, you bastard. I've lived a long time.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hey, you think I'd let you go that easily?
<DeathStar> 6* darien coughs painfully.
* Angela leaps back, breathing heavily, glaring at him.
<Wiendigo> Heh, bastard.
<Marcus`> *Kane motions for Terra to bring it, ready to go hand to hand with her.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Kat would be sad.
<Marcus`> *Xan aims and begins to fire his pistols at Megumi.
* Chad`Winters swings backwards, knocking someone out. He pants again as he stares at Eve.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve kicks at Chad's face
<Cassandra`> ...S...Setsuna...n...no...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina beadbutts her.
<Kit> 6Megumi's crystal breaks off her left hand as she shakes her head, grinding her teeth to get back to her feet. She blinks at Xanatos, quickly forming her nodachi.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva's head snaps back a dazed look on his face
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...s-sorry... got... careless..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina attmepts to stab heri n the heart.
* Wiendigo tosses the butt of the cigar away. "See ya again."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade stabs Angela in the stomach suddenly.
<Michiru> <Terra> *jumps, kicking at Kane, roundhouse-kicking on the downwards fall, whether she connects or not*
<DeathStar> <Darien> By the way. I really think you're a dick.
<Marcus`> ANGELA!
* Chad`Winters snaps his right hand up, and guides the foot off to the side, he brings his other hand up, aiming to hit a nerve cluster in her leg.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Too slow, human.
<Cassandra`> ....you'll be alright...Setsuna...we've been through worse...
<Marcus`> *Xan continues to fire at Megumi, she'd best start dodging.
<Wiendigo> By the way, I really did bang Iceheart's corpse.
* Angela cries out, moving to block, shaking. "N-No..."
<Kit> 6Chii hesitates, looking toward Katrina. 1"...I feel the same as Freyja did with Chad's kid, though. It's not right."
* Wiendigo shoves his claws into Darien's chest
* Angela falls back, bleeding, coughing.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien urks, his face getting painful as his heart pumps blood, and then stops
<DeathStar> <DS V/O> And so, I died.
* Marcus` growls and dives forward to claw at Spade.
<Kit> <Chii> Hrmph, for the first time in my existence, I don't feel happy living on.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva's mouth goes wide open as she coughs up blood, her eyes going distant
<DeathStar> <Warren> One rarely does, Chii.
<Kit> 6Chii scowls at Warren in her typical fashion.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Life is full of pain. One has to look past it ... and see what grace and dignity there is.
* Wiendigo jerks his claws out of Darien's heart, then looks towards Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Marcus tackles Spade.
<Kit> 6Chii sighs longingly and looks back toward Freyja.
* Angela falls abck, pulling out an emergency patch, sticking it over the wound, shaking.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *moves in to attack Katrina from behind, stabbing with her saber*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina blinks, glancing down.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... damn..
* Ariel is trying her best not to cry... and failing.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> "... two for one."
* Marcus` lashes out ferociously at Spade, like an animal, clawing and biting.
<Wiendigo> He'll be back. Bastard always comes back...
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *coughs up blood* Bitch. 6* She turns with a knife and cuts Peace's throiat.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...cass... you won't let me become a monster... right..?"
<Kit> 6Megumi's crystal on the right arm shatters, leaving her arms bare-- A cartwheeling move leaves her feet bare as well as she's struck more times before getting on the move.
<Cassandra`> ...stay with me, Setsuna...please...stay with me...
* Wiendigo struggles to his feet; his broken arm snapping and sparking
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *stumbles back, cut, but healing rapidly*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts. 1"John, Kat!" 6He throws his hands up blocking a punch.
<DeathStar> <John> Kat!
* Angela stands slowly, using her sword to lift herself up. "T-Trying to kill my kids..."
<DeathStar> Song: Storm and Fire - Battle
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina falls forward.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade dodges Marcus as best he can.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *splits her light blade into a multitude of light projectiles, bombarding the dark ones with them.
<Marcus`> *Theron steps forward, aiming to decapitate Peace with his sword.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *blocks with her own*
<Marcus`> *Xan continues firing, waiting it seems.
<DeathStar> 6* Myria blows away dark ones.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Xan's head is knocked off.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Shimata. Damn it, ojisan, Warren, do it before I change my mind or Katrina doesn't make it.
<Marcus`> *Xan's body slumps over.
* Wiendigo reaches behind his back and unsheaths his katana, looking around for a good battle to jump into.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods, turning to face his double. "Okay, bastard." 6* He dashes, throwing himself onto his otherself. Shots go off.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva reaches upto grab Kat's face then falls over dead.
<Marcus`> <Theron> Amatuer. *he jumps back and slashes again*
<Michiru> <Terra> *continues her onslaught on Kane*
* Angela stays back, not willing to put her children at risk again, worried, she watches Spade and Marcus fight.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there, her eyes glowing, and her hair white colored.
<DeathStar> 6* Her bo drips with blood.
<Kit> 6Chii rushes Freyja, trailing to the sides.
<Marcus`> *Kane is purely defensive now, keeping up with Terra.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *blocks that one too, smirking* "Or maybe I'm just having fun."
* Marcus` jerks forward suddenly to bite Spade's throat.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade is bit.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *lunges at Theron suddenly*
<DeathStar> <Spade> ARGH>
<DeathStar> 6* Cran grabs Angela from behind
<DeathStar> <Cran> Grandchildren. Wonderful.
* Marcus` shoves his claws forwards for Spade's chest.
<Kit> 6Megumi stops, catching her breath. 1"...The hell, Durran?"
* Chad`Winters pants again, his stance shakey.
* Angela grabs one of his thumbs, taking the force he's applying to hold her she spins out fo his grasp and pushes him away.
<Michiru> "Mom..."
<Marcus`> *Theron aims to knock Peace's blade low as he slashes up for her chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Dark Ones, her eyes inhuman.
<Angela> "They're mine... Dark One..."
<DeathStar> 6* Eve stumbles.
<DeathStar> 6* John tries to heal Kat
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> *steps back away from the cut, firing a ki blast at Theron as she does*

<DeathStar> 6* Cran punches Angela's head.
<DeathStar> <Cran> MINE!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grabs Cran from behind

<DeathStar> <Cheryl> God, you're such a bastard of a father
* Cassandra` tries to perform field first aid on Setsuna...
* Angela ducks as Cheryl grabs.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> "Apparently you have some skill yourself."
* Chad`Winters eye's go wide as he's caught off guard. 1"Cheryl"!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis begins to gather her hyperspace energy - enough to kil lher, and those around her.
<Michiru> "Mom! You can't!"
<Kit> 6Megumi struggles to her feet and stumbles. 1"...Erevis.. Damn it."
* Angela kicks down at one of Cran's legs while Cherly has him in a hold.
<Kit> <Megumi> That progenitor has finally woken up?
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Bah. Sorry. REady that way wrong
<Michiru> <Terra> "Erevis... damn it..."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, an Ariel kicks at Ariel.
<Kit> <Chii> So you've given up, Freyja?
<Marcus`> *Kane widens his eyes and knocks Terra aside running in for Erevis. "NO!" he jumps trying to stab Erevis.
* Chad`Winters 's leading leg suddenly gives out and he falls to his knee.
<DeathStar> <Freyja> Tch. Warren's not dead yet.
<DeathStar> <Freyja> You sure you want to absorb me?
* Ariel is knocked off guard, she looks up and... WTFs.
<Michiru> <Terra> *rushes after Kane, punch-stabbing for his back as he goes*
<DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel stands there.
<Kit> <Chii> Who said I was?
<Kit> 6Chii stabs the ninjato into Freyja's shoulder, then the twin into the other.
<DeathStar> <Freyja> You wouldn't sacrifice yourself and me to save these fools.
<Marcus`> *Kane pauses and glances down. "....damnit."
* Ariel laughs a little as she gets up. A less than sane laugh. "Oh... it's you..."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy lays there, too weak to move.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias fires two Dark Beams at Dark John.
<DeathStar> <Alpha Ariel> Pathetic.
* Marcus` stands finally spitting dark one from his mouth. "Disgusting."
<Kit> <Chii> Maybe, maybe not. But while ojisan makes up his mind, I'm not letting you cause problems anymore. Sit, girl, sit!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues overloading.
<Kit> 6* Chii drives Freyja into the ground, intent on using the swords like nails, so to speak.

<DeathStar> <Billy> *nods slowly*
<Marcus`> *Theron continues to have a nice sword fight with Peace.
<Chad`Winters> SOMEONE STOP EREVIS!
<Kit> 6Megumi staggers over to Erevis, looking upward, squinting, since the light from her hurts her eyes to begin with. 1"Erevis, wake up."
<Angela> "We make our own destiny!" *she punches him in the face*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis blasts Megumi back.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran stumbles.
* Ariel takes up a fighting stance, actually starting to smile. "Thought you were someone else."

<DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel spin kicks for Ariel's face.
<Kit> 6Megumi digs her hand into the bone floor, eventually skidding to a halt. 1"...Grr.."
<Kit> <Megumi> That is not Erevis, Terra.

* Ariel goes to block the foot with a plasma blade.
<DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel howls.

<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues to gain energy. The air crackles.

<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl whips.
<Wiendigo> Tell you what, I'll give you a handicap. One hand tied behind my back. *holds up his broken arm*
* Ariel is knocked back by the hit, "...didn't expect that."
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja rips free, grabbing Chii's throat. Drake cuts her arm off
<DeathStar> <Drake> Ho.
<Kit> 6Megumi turns to Terra briefly, her eyes widened and violet, she then turns back to Erevis, snarling.
<Kit> <Chii> ...E-eh!
<Michiru> <Terra> "... guess I can."
<Marcus`> Terra. Step back.
<Michiru> <Terra> "... what?"
* SPoC has joined #taw
<Kit> 6Chii briefly pauses to look at Drake. 1"...Thanks.."
* Chad`Winters has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<Michiru> <Terra> *steps back, on fire, glaring at Marcus, then Erevis*
<Angela> "Your legacy lives on damnit, now pass on!"
<Marcus`> Just let Megumi handle this.
<DeathStar> <Drake> Something tells me if someone doesn't do that sacrifice thing, it'll be to olate. 6* He nods at deaht, which is glowing.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there.
* Ariel drags herself to her feet, wiping her lips and then charging her blade.
<Michiru> <Terra> "... ... but..."
<Kit> <Chii> ...Tell Warren to hurry up, then. Fucking hero dramatics.

<DeathStar> 6* Ariel slashes him in two.
* Marcus` shifts, "...Seems we're too late." He backs up now.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren kneels there, looking up.
<Kit> 6Megumi breaks away parts of the bones, charging right into Erevis. 1Nrrraghh!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tackled.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Miss Billy...didn't you say that if Darien died, then he would be able to take them apart from the inside...?
<Angela> "Let's... help the others..." *she holds the top of her stomach*
* Ariel stands, and takes a deep breath.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Yes. But then we'll never get a chance- to poison the collective again
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton rises.
<DeathStar> Song: Love's Power - Event
* Marcus` glances at Ariel, Cheryl, and Angela. "You ladies, alright?"

<Angela> "...Oh... and Marcus?"
<DeathStar> 6* Freyja stares, narrowing her eyes.
* Marcus` arches a brow. "Hm?"
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> "But...didn't he just die...?
<Kit> <Chii> Good. That told me which was which. Warren would just grunt or make a snide remark.
<Michiru> <Terra> "Fuck just watching." *rushes forwards to help Megumi*
<Angela> "...I think we're having twins."
* Marcus` groans and slaps his face.
<DeathStar> <Billy> He never drank the vial.
* Wiendigo takes a step back
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ....whaaaaaa?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren goes to shoot himself, when he's tackled.
<Wiendigo> ....Imputent little shit.
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton laughs.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pokes Dark John in the eyes.
<Angela> "They both referred to what's down there as children, plural."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at MEgumi.
* Wiendigo looks down the hill, then back at Darien's lifeless body.
<Angela> "Anyways... let's kick some ass."
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton powers up.

<DeathStar> <Phaeton> What the he-?
* Angela blinks and follows Ariel's gaze.
* Marcus` sighs. "Right." he returns to fighting and Dark One.
<Kit> 6Megumi's irises are narrowed, and despite the effect of the redness in her crystal or her feral expression, her eyes are focused.
<Angela> "Trust... where's Darien...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares her her, so their lips are almost touching

<Michiru> <Vyssa> *takes care NOT to hit Warren*
<DeathStar> <Warren> Dammit! I must die!
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...but how? We have no escape route...
<Angela> "What is Warren trying to do now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis begins to kill MEgumi, as she's not beaten her.
<Kit> <Chii> Save the day, of course!
<Angela> "Is he on pain pills again???"
* Wiendigo slugs Phaeton with a harsh, vicious blow. "DON'T" *hit* "FUCK" *hit* "WITH" *hit* "THE" *hit* "ORIGINAL!"
<Kit> <Chii> He--!" 6Slash!1 "Wishes!"
<Michiru> <Terra> "Megumi... if you want her... DO IT NOW."
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton's face is pummeled, his eye ball bouncing out
* Chad`Winters shoves Eve off and he pulls out Ebony, turning it towards Warren and Chii
<Michiru> <Terra> .oO(Oh god, did that sound like I think it did?)
* Wiendigo gets off of Phaeton. "Get up, you bitch."
<Kit> 6Despite her appearance, the eyes give her away, although hesitant, the focused look, it's like Famfrit. She's perfectly conscious. Once the claws on her left hand have eroded, she strikes with the blunt crystal. 1"Wake up!"
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton strains to stand
<Kit> NRP: Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* That doesn't seem to affect Erevis.
<Michiru> <Terra> "You love her, don't you?"
<Marcus`> Oh fucking shit, just kiss her Megumi.
<Michiru> <Terra> "... yeah."
<Michiru> <Terra> "If you love her, SHOW HER, for gods sake!"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren scrambles about.
* Michiru blinks a little, but accepts it
* Ariel sorta gives the others a WTF look
<Kit> 6If one ever saw a tiger blush, well. Megumi leans in and does it.

* Wiendigo shoves his sword through Phaeton's neck
<DeathStar> Song: Forever - Event
<Michiru> <Terra> *takes a deep breath of relief*
<DeathStar> 6* All the human like Dark Ones scream, and --- the real spirits stand there.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve looks up.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Where am I?
* Chad`Winters turns, eyeing Eve. 1"Eve?" 6His gun lowers.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Miss Billy...what has just happened?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade stumbles.
<DeathStar> <Billy> It's too late. DArien broke their soul collective.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy looks weaker now.
* Angela stares, standing slowly. "Are you... all..."
<Kit> 6Chii stumbles away from helping Warren. 1"Okami... What now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren lays there, bloodied.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren smashes his fist into the ground
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... Em. ... are you well?"
<Marcus`> *Xan stands there now, silent.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...what does this mean then...?
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton flips Wiendigo off.
<Ariel> Em> "..." *looks down*
<DeathStar> <Billy> They---can no longer...use the dead...
<DeathStar> 6* Billy seems to be dying.
<Michiru> <Peacemaker> "... I see..."
<Kit> 6Chii turns to Freyja, glaring like her old self.
* Chad`Winters holsters his gun as he moves towards Eve, kneeling down towards her
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> "Oh my god, oh my god..."
* Marcus` pauses and slides up to Billy. "He Kid, you don't look so good."
<DeathStar> <Eve> Chad... 6* she smiles.
<Angela> "So wait... did we win...?"
<Marcus`> *Kane places a hand on Ceil's shoulder.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> ...I..6She looks around.
<DeathStar> <Billy> *smiles* I'm afraid...I'm dying.
<DeathStar> 6* Setsuna's soul is now safe.
* Chad`Winters reaches his hand out towards Eve's face.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "Oh come'on now. Stop joking around."
<Ariel> Raquel> *looks worriedly at Billy*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays there, holding Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Billy> *shakes her head* My power came from Garland Hianule.
* Wiendigo pulls his sword back out of Phaeton's neck
* Angela looks at Marcus then Billy.
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *looks to Kane, crying* "... it's alright now, isn't it?"
<Marcus`> *Xan kneels beside Erevis. "Erevis. Are you happy?"
<Angela> "From... Garland...?"
<Marcus`> *Kane just shrugs, smiling.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks up at Xanatos. "I miss you every day."
* Ariel looks for Darien
<DeathStar> <Billy> *coughs* A puppet made from death
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Miss Cassandra, Miss Setsuna! Billy is dying!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes John. 1"You evil still?"
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *leans in and kisses Kane*
<DeathStar> 6* Phaeton falls overt.
<Kit> 6Megumi's crystal dissolves away and despite her freaked out expression, remains calm, though she is clearly feeling awkward at this point.
* Angela looks over at the ghost of Spade.
<Cassandra`> Wh...what?! *picks up Setsuna and moves over to Billy...
* Marcus` frowns. "There's nothing I can do?"
<DeathStar> 6* John lays there. "You beat me up."
<Michiru> <Terra> "... I'm proud of you."
<DeathStar> 6* BIlly smiles at Cass and Sets. "You two..wanted to beat them."
<Angela> "Is it really you... this time?"
<Marcus`> I miss you. Every second of every day.
* Chad`Winters tries to touch Eve's face, his face on the border of tears.
<Marcus`> NRP: Xan*
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar stands behind Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve's hand passes through Chad's.
<Marcus`> *Kane just kisses her back, the two remain off to the side.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Told you I'd get stronger than you.
* Ariel turns, and pauses.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Hey you.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien's body lays ther.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... please... whatever happens... live on without regrets."
* Chad`Winters clenches his fist. 1"I miss you Eve."
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...what happens now...?"
<Cassandra`> ..Billy...I...didn't know...this would...happen to you...
* Ariel looks uncertain.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *triesn ot to cry*
* Angela looks around at everyone.
<DeathStar> <Billy> No soul of my own. 6* She smiles.
* Angela walks over to Spade.
<Angela> "William?"
<Kit> <Chii> ...Isn't there anything you can do, Freyja? She might be an evil little cretin, but they care for her.
* Marcus` widens his eyes. "Oh come'on, I can help. There's something I cna do, right? Take part of mine."
<Michiru> <Vyssa> "Billy... knowing this... you still came to help us?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva looks around for Kat or her soul.
<DeathStar> 6*No soul Kat. Just the seemingly dead Kat.
<DeathStar> <Eve> How's Aya, Chad?
<Chad`Winters> She's good Eve. She has your eyes and hair.
<DeathStar> <SpadE> Hey, Serena.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel looks around uncertainly... now that all of the souls are free, she's beginning to have second thoughts on her own power.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve smiles.
<Marcus`> *Xan smiles slightly, wiping a tear away from her eye. "I just want you to be happy, right? That's all I've ever wanted."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... *she tries to take Xan's hand*
<Angela> "You recognise me..."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Yeah. You did good.
* Wiendigo replaces his sword and wanders back over to the confusion
<Angela> "I-I'm sorry..."
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Erevis.. You never received the chance before.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy shakes her head. "I need a full soul."
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "I... I only wish..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva kneels down next to Kat. 1"Kat...Hey."
* Kit sits up slowly, nodding her head weakly to Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina opens her eyes. "Shiva?"
<Kit> NRP: Meg. >_>
* Gar-gone is now known as Garland
* Marcus` frowns. "I'm sure there is someone out there that can give you a soul."
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> It's over. 6* He motions, a young man next to him. Garland Hianule.
<Cassandra`> ...what can we do....?
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You did it Kat, you freed me.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It's so hard.
<Wiendigo> It's like a regular bleeding family reunion over here.
<Angela> "...I did good?"
<Chad`Winters> She's full of energy, she's a handful.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve laughs, almost crying.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...I going to make it... Billy...?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> *smiles at Setsuna* You'll be fine. I'm gonna sleep now. Bye, mommy. 6* she says to them both, closing her eyes,.
* Marcus` frowns slightly, Erevis' hand slides through his own. "I know. But i'm always with you. In here." He motions to her heart.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> *tries to kiss Em, tears streaming down her cheeks*
* Ariel nods slowly... "It's... over."
<Kit> 6Chii holds out her hands, patterns running along the ground like they did on the ship. She raises her hands, breaking Freyja apart into a tiny blocks and spheres of light, taking them to herself. After a moment she opens her eyes, then slowly turns to the others, silent.
<Ariel> Em> "...I... told you I'd save you... Hota."
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Yes. ... Have Megumi heal Darien. His soul should still be... there.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... thankyou."
* Angela looks at Spade.
<Marcus`> Billy! *he falls over her* Come'on, stop messing around.
<DeathStar> <Spade> *waves*
<Cassandra`> Billy!
<Chad`Winters> I wish you could see her.
<Angela> "Goodbye William..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis hugs Xanatos without hugging.
* Ariel nods slowly, and it finally clicks in. She hurries to find Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I do, too.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar turns to Wiendigo
* Angela hears Marcus yelling and looks over.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> I love you, Darlin. Smile for me, just one more time.
<DeathStar> 6* He punches the soul bastard, since they're both incorporeal now
* Chad`Winters pauses, then pulls something out of his tact belt. He holds out a picture towards Eve.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> I fucking HATE you.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve looks at it. "She has your nose."
* Angela runs over, hugging Marcus from behind.
<Chad`Winters> Poor girl. 6He laughs weakly
* Wiendigo stands by DS and Garland, folding his arms and grinning. "You would've done the same."
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Eh, true. *he pats Garland*
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna says a prayer for Billy... she can't do much else right now.
* Marcus` glances down at her arms, closing his eyes, leaning over the dead Billy. "...damnit." he says in a mumble.
<Wiendigo> So, what? We dead again?
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Yes. But, it'll be okay.
* Angela does her best to comfort him.
<Wiendigo> Gets hard to tell anymore.
<Kit> 6Chii? Freyja? Whichever, both one at the moment, moves toward Katrina, but seeing them conversing, hesitates and instead moves for the group around Billy.
<Michiru> <Fox> "Angela... I... take care of yourself, okay?"
<DeathStar> Song: One's Loss - Event
* Angela blinks, looking over at Fox's spirit.
<Angela> "Scarlet..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *forces a smile* I love you, Xanatos.
<Kit> 6Megumi kneels a bit away from Erevis and Xanatos, looking to the ground, however creepy it is, when Ariel might be showing up.
<Michiru> <Fox> "I'll miss you..."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Don't go dieing on me you fool.
<Ariel> "Megumi... Megumi, I need your help..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles slowly, holding her stomach.
* Angela weakly smiles. "I-I will... I miss you too..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I love you, Shiva.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Hm..?
<Kit> 6Megumi looks up slowly, sullen.
<Angela> "I never got to say goodbye..."
<Marcus`> *Xan smiles, "I guess i'll have to accept a forced one."
<Ariel> "Darien... he needs your help..."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I know you do, I'll always love you Kat.
<Michiru> <Fox> "I... guess I didn't either... thankyou... for making me belong one last time."
<Kit> 6Megumi looks between Erevis and Xanatos, then nods to Ariel. 1"Alright..." 6She rises to her feet and follows.
<DeathStar> 6* A rift appears, one that is drawing the souls toward it. The real after life, perhaps?
<Marcus`> *Xan looks up. "It's time I go."
<Angela> "Fox... I'll never forget you."
* Angela hugs onto Marcus still.
<Michiru> <Fox> "Or I you... we'll meet again, though, I'm sure."
<Angela> "Sometime..."
<Marcus`> *Kane puts his arm around Ceil. "It's about time we get to rest." He jokes, moving towards the rift.
<DeathStar> SOng: The Source of souls
<DeathStar> 6* the ground begins to rumble
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar glances
<DeathStar> Nowe what?
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva looks around
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *nods quietly*
<Marcus`> *Theron glances around.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Uh oh, this can't be good.
* Ariel quickly leads Megumi to Darien's battered form
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, a dark being springs up, like a Dark Angel. Kyouki.
<DeathStar> 6* Kyouki flaps her dark wings.
<Michiru> <Terra> "Oh... fuck."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns to look
* Chad`Winters looks around, a paniced look on his face. He turns around, in a protective stance infront of Eve
<DeathStar> You have got to be fucking kidding me.
<Cassandra`> What the?!
<DeathStar> 6* The rift begins to shrink slowly.
* Wiendigo tilts his head. "She's got style."
<Marcus`> *Xanatos frowns. "...
<DeathStar> Tch. We're running out of time.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "..."
* Wiendigo pulls out his sword again. "Aren't we always?"
<DeathStar> <Kyouki> I shall end you all. The collective will live on. 6* Dark Ones begin to appear.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You need to get up now Kat.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I can't..feel my legs.
<Marcus`> *Theron shifts, pulling out his sword.
<Kit> 6Chii raises her arms, loosing a light arrow at Kyouki.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Kat, get up. You can do it.
<DeathStar> Song: Rise Again, One More Time
<DeathStar> 6* Kyouki knocks it with a dark shield.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina strains to stand.
* DeathStar pulls a DS sabre.
<Kit> <Fairlights> Was worth a shot.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Come on Kat, you have to stand up.
* Marcus` wipes his nose and stands, "..."
<DeathStar> Hmmm, wonder if we spirits can hurt it.
<Angela> "Marcus... time to stand."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl puts her hands on ehr hips
<Marcus`> Yeah. I know. *he says quitly*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Tch. Her again?
<DeathStar> 6* WArren aims his gun.
<Kit> 6Megumi kneels over Darien, for a second time, focusing on rebuilding what is lost.
<Wiendigo> If not, we can alwys give 'er one hell of a headache.
* Angela helps him up.
* Chad`Winters pulls both his guns out, charging both up.
<Michiru> <Vyssa> *aims her gun*
<DeathStar> You up for it, Garland?
* Ariel watches over Darien, helping with her own healing. She trusts the others.
<Michiru> "... this is so wrong..."
<Kit> 6Chii retreats to Katrina. 1"...Have a gift for you."
<Marcus`> *Xan glances at Erevis. "Looks like we might get to fight together, one last time."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade leaps at Kyouki, and blasts her. It seems spirits can hurt it. Sadly, their chance at peace is closing rapidly.
<Kit> 6Chii closes her eyes slightly and begins to heal Katrina.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis rises, forming her bo
<Chad`Winters> Eve, go.
<DeathStar> <Eve> But---
<Marcus`> *Kane shifts, pulling his rifle, he's right beside the rift. He aims and fires at Kyouki.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... can I really leave you to fight this alone...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Spade fires blast after blast.
<Angela> "Scarlet... go..."
* Garland cracks his knuckles, looking at DS
<Ariel> 6* Raquel turns her attention angrily upon Kyouki. "You... because of you... my friend..."
<Michiru> <Ceilidh> *looks to Kane, then pulls out a gun of her own, firing too*
<Marcus`> If you're a spirit. I suggest you leave. *he glances around* Your time is short.
<Ariel> Em> "Go... I said I'd save you Hota."
<Chad`Winters> I don't know what's over there Eve, and I don't know what'll happen if you stay here...
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... ... Good luck, Chad. 6* She drifts for the rift.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... I don't want to leave you alone facing that..."
<Chad`Winters> I love you Eve. 6He raises his guns as he looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I love you, too
* Wiendigo grins upon hearing Marcus' words. "We've got all the time in the world."
<Angela> "Scarlet... I felt the same, go."
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar charges ahead. "Who needs eternal peace?"

<Kit> 6Chii stands after a moment and seems to grin slightly, pointing one finger slightly at Wiendigo. 1"You seemed like a pain in the ass, let's just see what you can do to her, eh?" 6She begins focusing the enhancement charm on him.
<Marcus`> *Xan glances at Erevis, then the rift. "If I stay, I may be lost to you forever."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You should go, XAn.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel ripples over, slashing at Kyouki from behind. The little girl is rather upset for once.
<DeathStar> 6* Kyouki roars in pain from Wiendigo, open to Garland.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva turns and moves off .
<Michiru> <Fox> "... don't you dare let that thing hurt you..."
<Wiendigo> Tear this bitch a new one, kid!
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Don't forget about me. *he smiles to her, and moves for the rift* I'll see you soon.
<DeathStar> Song: Take a shot
<Michiru> <Fox> *reluctantly moves towards the rift*
<Angela> "See you on the other side... one day."
<Marcus`> *Kane nods to Ceil and then steps into the right, content to leave it up to them.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias forms a Dark Matter ball. 1"Let's make this one hot John."
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "Em... I..."
<DeathStar> <Johns> Right on! Double the power!
* Garland slams his fist into the Dark Angel, presumably as he turns into a spin kick
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Angel is hit, flying backwards.
* Angela hefts her gun. "Ready to kick some ass Marcus?"
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "I don't want to leave you..."
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar rises.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs up blood, opening his eeys.
<Ariel> 6* Em telekinetically smacks Kyouki back towards the others.
* Angela aims her gun, readying a shot.

<Chad`Winters> 6Dias takes several hops forward and he hurls the Dark Matter Bomb towards Kyouki
* Marcus` shifts into a wold. "Born ready." He growls.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Looks like she's coming back.
<Marcus`> NRP: wolf*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Junior. "You are here, too?"
<Michiru> <Terra> *throws fire at Kyouki* "BURN."
<DeathStar> 6* Kyouki is thrown back toward them.
<Marcus`> *Xan turns and watches the fight, seems like he really wants to help.
* Angela takes a shot, firing her gun, the shot expands exposively as it impacts.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar leaps on Wiendigo, kicking off of him like a springboard.
<Ariel> Em> "...Hota... don't... you might not have another chance..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Angel spins, slashing at DeathStar.
<DeathStar> 6* While on fire.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren fires.
<Garland> <Junior> *smiles softly* You say that like I ever left. A soul may be trapped, but my heart was always with you. *rushes forward, fighting a bit like Garland, without his weapons*
<Kit> 6Chii gesture questioningly at Wiendigo, looking disappointed.1"Come on, I gave you a boost, use it!"
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar lands on the Dark Angel, grabbing her wings, ripping at them.
<Michiru> <Hotaru> "... I... how can I leave someone I love so much to danger like this?!"
* Angela rolls up her sleeve, tapping some keys on her armband, she aims again.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Tough cookie...
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl whistles.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> We'll need something stronger John.
* Garland leaps into the Dark Angel from the front, slamming his fist at her face
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Matter seems to phase her little.
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Angel shrieks as she's punched.
<Angela> "Hotaru! Sis! Go! We've got this covered!"
<DeathStar> 6* The rift shrinks more. However, it seems spirits do the most damage.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade begins to predict the future. "Your time is over, Dark Angel."
* Garland leaps back, next to Junior. "I know you won't like this but..."
<Marcus`> *Xan closes his eyes and steps back into the rift.

<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Angel soars back down.
<DeathStar> 6* It suddenly goes to attack, when Kyouki screams.

<Kit> 6Chii raises her hand, three arrows forming at her finger tip. She concentrates, locking onto three, then releases.

<DeathStar> 6* The Xevils are taken out, falling around. Each one that dies is absorbed into another.

<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar uppercuts, landing beside Garland. "Just like old times, eh, kid?"

* Angela fires another shot.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade goes into the rift.
<Michiru> <Terra> *takes the punch, but stabs Xevil in return*
<Kit> 6Megumi makes a reappearance in fighting form, dragging her oversized zanbato sideways along the opposite side of Wiendigo, cleaning up a smaller group.
<Garland> That's an indirect way of me saying, "it'd be a little more destructiv in my hands."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes him. "You should be more direct, then."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tosses him the bo

<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...one Xevil left...?
* Garland catches it, the bo turning into a massive, serated claymore.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... never."
* Marcus` is lurched over, breathing like an animal as he watches Xevil.
<Garland> Xevil!

<DeathStar> Song: Xephyr Battle
* Michiru looks to DeadJohn "What about your afterlife...?"
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Garland! Good to see you again
<DeathStar> <Dead John> Eh. This is my afterlife.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> I'll be glad to rip you apart once more.
<Michiru> "... will you be alright here...?"
<DeathStar> <Dead John> *waves his hand* I'm totally too cool to go
<Garland> Things are different from last time, Xevil.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Oh? And what's so different now? This dance is the same as it always was.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar stands beside Garland
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *smiles to John* "Then we're together."

<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Because, Xevil, you can't beat a family.
<Garland> Nah, you're wrong.
<Garland> <Jr>*lands next to DS and Gar*
* Wiendigo plops a new cigar in his mouth
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches.
<Garland> <Jr> What Death Star said, Dad.
<Kit> 6Megumi moves past Wiendigo and gets closer to the two facing closely off with the single Xevil. 1"..." 6She's uh. Not happy about Erevis' second to last visit with him.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil stares at them.
<Michiru> "Right!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at DS/Gar/Jr/Wien. 1"..God I need a pose like that..."
<Garland> Oh, right. *holds up the sword* Your evil will evaporate.
<Ariel> "...I feel like I should be helping." *looks to Darien*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes Xevil with anger.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Go ahead.
<Kit> 6Megumi once again feels awkward, until Erevis seems to join in.
<DeathStar> 6* The two Johns pose together.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stand beside the legendary heroes.
* Wiendigo looks at the group. "This is the most fucked up, dysfuntional family I've ever laid my eyes on."
* Michiru does also
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides next to John, posing himself.
* Ariel smiles at Darien, and steps forward to join the others.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Aw, cheer up. You were always the wife of it.
* Marcus` steps up beside Dias. "I kinda feel lame."
<Kit> <Megumi> I am actually mentally fragmented, do not feel too bad.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Pscht, this is what real heroes do.
<Wiendigo> Yeah, real shame you always took it up the ass, though.
<Michiru> <Terra> *strikes a pose herself, finger pointing to the sky* "Of course we'll defeat you Xevil. Who do you think we are?"
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil stares. "What does all that stupid talk mean? How is standing there doing anything?"
* Angela watches Death Star, this is the one she shared a bond with.
<Kit> 6Megumi throws her zanbato at Xevil.
<Marcus`> *Theron slips up silently, curious as to if this is goign to have any affect.
<Michiru> <Terra> *brings up a column of flame at Xevil*
<Kit> 6She adopts her unarmed poise, since Erevis seems willing to as well.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil is whacked by a zanboto
<DeathStar> <Xevil> Stupid cunt.
<Kit> <Megumi> Thanks.
<DeathStar> <Death Star> *sighs* He never got it, did he.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *steps up beside Erevis and Megumi*
* Garland shakes his head.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> How long do we hold the pose before we attack again?
<Michiru> "What a fool."
<Wiendigo> Right about...now.
<Kit> <Chii> Is there one in particular I should be boosting?
<Ariel> Em> *sighs* "...what a bunch of idiots."
* Marcus` reverts back to his human form. "I dunno, but if i'm going to pose, i'm going to look good doing it."
<Garland> Hey, Star? You still got that Gold form thing?
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Sure do.
<Wiendigo> See you bitches in hell!

* Michiru goes Hyperspace
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands there, just watching.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...No fair! I want to do that!
<Kit> 6Chii thinks that seems well enough. She focuses her enhancement on DeathStar.
<Garland> I can't die if I'm already dead... and you know what that means... *he says, as he starts to buldge with hyper*
<Ariel> Raquel> "......"
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar glows, dashing after Wiendigo.
<Garland> <Jr> Showoffs...
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... *she sits, feeling inadequate*
<Kit> <Megumi> Yeah...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias blinks. 1"I'm having problems keeping up with their movements.."
* Ariel gives them some holy blasts as fire support. Not like she can compare to THAT.
* Angela closes her eyes and reopens them, one eye unfocused, she loads her gun again, taking aim.

* Angela hands Marcus her spare gun.
<DeathStar> <Xevil> I am..immortal...you can never beat me.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...I do not have the focus left to move that quickly.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops forward than back as if trying to find the right time to jump in.
<Kit> 6Megumi looks... slightly envious.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Garland! I think we should that sword of yours to erase Xevil - forever.
* Garland leaves a red and white blur as he slashes at Xevil's form in rapid, successive strikes. "Immortality means nothing!"
* Marcus` yes it. "Nah." He runs forward, ripping free his blades, he slides and cuts out at Xevil, using the ripple blade.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar slashes rapidly.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil collapses in pieces.
<Marcus`> *Theron stands back, firing every so often, once his shot is clear.
<DeathStar> 6* The rift closes.
* Wiendigo stomps on a piece of Xevil
<Wiendigo> STAY DEAD, YOU STUPID FUCK
* Garland jumps back, the sword glowing. "You do it, I'm not strong enough on my own."
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar spits on them.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... well... I'm stuck here... can't complain."
* Garland ofers the sword to DS. "I'll lend you all of my strength."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah! Take that! 6He fire a dark beam at the pieces.
<Kit> 6Chii steps over to Billy, glancing up from time to time, seeming to be lost in thought.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes Kyouki
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar nods, taking the sword, holding it and nodding to Garland. "See you never, Xevil."
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar lifts the Emerald Sword.
* Marcus` takes a step back, not wanting to be in the way.
<Wiendigo> Don't strain yourself.

<Ariel> 6* Em attempts to grapple Xevil in place, telekinetically

<Marcus`> You're tellin me.
<DeathStar> 6* The remaining spirits begin to fade away.
* Angela looks up, seeing them fade.
<Wiendigo> Until the next big bad.
<Angela> "Hey DS!"
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> *glances at Angela*
<Garland> There's always something else on the horizon.
<Angela> "...It was fun."
<DeathStar> 6* John watches his hand vanish. "AAAH!"
<Garland> ... It's usually Xevil, though.
* Angela smiles softly.
<Kit> 6Chii walks over, carrying Billy's body. 1"...I don't know how to phrase this, but..."
<Chad`Winters> 6The blake begins to recede form Dias' face
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... Erevis... thankyou."
<Wiendigo> Like bitches. And booze.
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Take good care of this world, Angela.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No John, you're disappearing!

<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods to Junior.
<DeathStar> 6* And to Kyouki.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Quick, pass on some good knowledge to me
<Garland> <Jr> *smiles* I wished I'd met you when I was younger.
<Kit> <Chii> If you all plan to fade away, why not give her another chance, huh? It's all she ever seemed to want was a soul. Why not make full use of what you have left?
<DeathStar> <John> Threesomes are for real men, Dias.
<Wiendigo> Don't stick your dick in an electrical socket. Or do it, I don't really fucking care.
<Kit> <Chii> Truly live on in the new generation. That sort of thing. Whatever...
<DeathStar> <DeathStar> Rely on family.
* Cassandra` follows Chii, carrying Setsuna...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Wiser words have never been said before.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar puts an arm around Garland.
* Angela smiles.
<Angela> "I will."
* Angela looks at Marcus.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... if I must fade away... let it be bringing life to another."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches.
* Marcus` glances at her. "I wish I was a cool as you old guys." He looks to the spirits.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar turns to ARiel. "Rememer me."
<Angela> "Hey, you are cool."
* Wiendigo looks at DS. "Touch me and you'll pull back a bloody stump"

<Michiru> <Kyouki> *walks over to Billy*
* Ariel nods slowly. "I... I will. Just... I don't think I can forget the surfboard part now."
* Wiendigo puffs on his cigar. "Yeah, you just wanted me to ride you like a bronco."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Junior. I wiill pray your soul has a safe journey.
<Garland> <Jr> Just know that if I'd had more time, I would have acted on having fallen in love with you.
* Garland looks over to Kyouki. "Wait."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> In some reality, you did. That is enough, is it not? A lifetime of possibilities.
<Garland> NRP: Junior said that.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *looks to Junior* "What is it?"
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Ones seem to have retreated for now.
* Angela looks at Garland with vague recollections, but shakes her head. "Goodbye stranger..."
<Garland> <Jr> *glances back to Erevis* I'm glad for it. *he looks back to Kyouki* You don't have to do that.
<Garland> <Jr> *walks over to Billy* She really was the daughter I never had.
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis watches Junior.

* Garland looks at Angela, "Who is that ugly bitch staring at me?"
<Kit> 6Chii eyes Junior. 1"You're sure?"
<Angela> "Hey!"
<Ariel> * Raquel pauses. "...if... you're going to just... cease... I could hold on to one or two...?"
<Garland> <Jr> *closes his eyes* This is what my place in this reality is supposed to be. I was looking for a purpose all along, after all.
<Chad`Winters> Ignore her, she's pergnant.
<Cassandra`> ...thank you...for the life of my daughter...
<Angela> "Angela, or Seraphna, whatever reality you're from!"
<Angela> "Jerk..."
* Garland puts his hand on Billy, fading away abruptly.
<Garland> *Jr*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy takes a deep breath, looking healthy
<DeathStar> 6* Billy sits up, blinking.
<Marcus`> Billy?
<Garland> <Garland> *looks at Angela* Crazy bitch.
<Cassandra`> Billy...how do you feel?
<DeathStar> <Billy> *touches her stomach* I feel...alive.
<Kit> 6Chii reaches out, messing Billy's hair. 
<Kit> <Chii> Omedetou, kouzou.

* Chad`Winters looks over at DS/Wien/Gar/Jr.
* Angela ignores Garland now.
<DeathStar> <John> I don't know, but I touch your ass if you want.

<DeathStar> Song: Crash
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *laughs*
* Garland looks at DS, "Man, I'm fading away, and there's this scary bitch that looks like Sera. Man I'm glad I divorced that crazy ho."
<DeathStar> 6* John pats it.

<DeathStar> <DeathStar> *smacks Garland's back*
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... maybe... someday."
* Cassandra` looks at the fading spirits...
<Angela> "Oh right... we need to escape now."
<Chad`Winters> We should get going and hope we can get a hold of a on the PAX Alliance ships.
<DeathStar> 6* DeathStar gives Wiendigo a big kiss as she vanishes.
<Cassandra`> I'll light incense for you...
<DeathStar> 6* Future John looks at his watch. "Well, time for me to go back to the future. Rock on, people."

<Chad`Winters> Warren, try an open comm signal and pray we can reach someone

<DeathStar> <Warren> Anyone out there?
<Ariel> "The... what?"
<Kit> <Chii> ...Dragon, ship, whatever you are.

<Chad`Winters> Why are you out of breath? 6He eyes her.
<Angela> "oh god sorry!"

<Kit> <Chii> I doubt as glad as we are to see you
<Marcus`> <Theron> ...we should leave.
<Chad`Winters> Good point. Where's the bridge?
* Angela helps him up. "We've gotta get that taken out... not like there's damage to prevent anymore."
<Terra> <Vyssa> "Quickly."

* Chad`Winters looks at Darien. 1"And this is your friend?"
<X3> What controls?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I -- think so. I can't remember. I think she's my lawyer.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Then why aren't we running?! The fleet is already getting out of here!
<Chad`Winters> No wonder you were in jail for so long.
<Marcus`> <Theron> How about you run us away from here?!
<Angela> "This is X3, she's Darien's attorney."
<X3> And accountant. By the way, you're leagally dead.
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... ... hm. Jail.
<Angela> "We found her on Origin Earth."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I am?!
<Terra> "How do we make the ship move?"
<Terra> "... Darien, your memory?"
<DeathStar> <Ship> I move when I want to move Hang on! We're going
<DeathStar> 6* The Ship turns and zooms away.
<X3> Oh, that's easy. See, there are these engines, right? And by-ACK
* Chad`Winters rubs the bridge of his nose.
* X3 falls over
<Kit> <Megumi> ...That is... interesting.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stumblesi n Chii's arms.
<Kit> 6Chii clutches her tightly, a set look past her.
* X3 's boobs are totally in Darien's face
<DeathStar> <Ship> You can call me CHIP. Computer Human Intelligence Program.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien acks.
* Ariel clears her throat.
<Terra> "A ship that talks. Cool!"
<Kit> <Megumi> ...These sort of things hate me.
<Angela> "Ch-CHIP?"
<DeathStar> 6* They zoom away to safety.
<Terra> "Sentient machines are cool, aren't they Strife?"
<Angela> "Oh gods..."
<Kit> 6Megumi groans. The station AI her reason for running around so damn much.
* Angela sighs
* X3 looks down, then smacks Darien in the head.
<DeathStar> Song: Not ALoen in the World - Event
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ow!
<Cassandra`> ...its good to hear Chip's voice again...
<Ariel> 6* Strife seems to agree.
<X3> Mr. Starr, as your legal representation, I find it very rude for you to act in such a foward manner with me. Those are MY funbags.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I pay enough that I should get them, apparantly.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits back. "It is over."
* Ariel moves Darien away from X3
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs his chin. "I hope we all learned a valuable lesson."
<Kit> <Megumi> Mister Starr, you moron.
<Kit> <Chii> Yarou.
<Marcus`> ...Dark Ones are evil?
<Terra> <Vyssa> *looking back in* "Humans are crazy?"
<DeathStar> <Drake> No. The power of love can defeat any enemy!
<Kit> 6Lilith facepalms at Darien. 1"Baka."
<Angela> "Ah, that one."
* Marcus` sighs. "Yeah. Love."
* Marcus` waves a hand.
<Kit> <Megumi> Damn straight.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Always wear protection?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis hugs Megumi tightly.
* Angela looks at Marcus
<Marcus`> Way to tell me now!
<Terra> "Never give up!"
<Kit> 6Chii glares at Drake. 1"I am glad you are not my benefactor anymore..."
<DeathStar> 6* Warrren eyes Marcus, and suckerpunches him again.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hey I always do anal when I can't find a rubber.
<DeathStar> <Drake> *wavesh is hand*
* Marcus` slides back. "WHAT THE FUCK! STOP HITTING ME!"
<X3> That starring in a porno when you're young to help pay for law school is not a good idea. Unless you get really good money for it.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hugs Setsuna and CAssandra.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches them all, smiling.
<Ariel> Em> "I've learned... that you're all batshit crazy. Does that count?"
<Marcus`> *Theron stands off to the side, quiet as he watches them.
<Kit> <Chii> I am not..
* Chad`Winters leans against the wall, his head hanged down.
<Ariel> Setsuna> *smiles weakly*
<Terra> <Vyssa> "It does."
<X3> As my grandfather always yes, "Yes."
<Kit> <Lilith> I am not crazy, but two lives.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Theron...?
<X3> *said
<Marcus`> *Theron glances at Myria. "Hm?"
<Kit> <Megumi> I am crazy." 6Sighs. 1"But I am crazy for Erevis, too!"
<Cassandra`> ...I think we need a family vacation...
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...I want an Omega Coke.
<Angela> "A long one."
<Kit> <Chii> I want...
<X3> I know a great place! Toledo!
<Terra> "Family..." *smiles*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis kisses MEgumi on the lips.
<Angela> "...And I think I need leave for a while."
<Marcus`> *Theron laughs lightly and messes Myria's hair.
<Kit> 6Chii stares at Katrina. 1"...Eh, what ...Wh-what have we?!"
<Kit> <Chii> N-nanda!?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I've learned you all give me brain cancer.
<Terra> "After everything I've gone through... that's the thing I'm most glad to have right now."
<Angela> "We love you too Warren."
<DeathStar> <Billy> I've learned that being evil pays. 6* winks.
* Chad`Winters pushes off the wall and moves off to a side room.
<Marcus`> I've learned to keep your penis in your pants. *he throws up his hands and steps off to the side*
<Kit> 6* Megumi flails in surprise, before settling, blinking at Erevis slowly.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel sits quietly, wondering about those spirits who stayed behind on their side...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'm hungry.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stansd there, having come with X3. "Hey, you." 6* She tells Chad.
<Kit> 6Lilith pats Raquel on the head.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps back.
* Chad`Winters pauses as he see's Zephyr. 1"Hey Zephyr."
* Marcus` sits down and rests his head back.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Chad. "You look like you need a hug."
<Kit> Megumi stares somewhat, smiling subtly. 1"...Erevis?"
* Angela walks over, joining him.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes?
<Angela> "Hey..."
<Marcus`> Yo.
<Kit> 6Megumi rubs her head, blushing as she grins. 1"...More f-forward than you usually are."
* Chad`Winters eyes her then smiles, hugging her.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel leans against Lilith.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I had the desire.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hugs Chad.
<Angela> "Listen... I'm not going to... force you to stick around or anything..."
<Kit> <Lilith> Perhaps they will be given a second chance like I was.
* Terra lies back against the wall, smiling
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts an arm around Ariel.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know, you have a lot of blanks to fill in for me.
* Marcus` glances at her and pats her knee. "Don't sweat it."
<Chad`Winters> I'm sorry for asking you to stay behind,.
<X3> And they all live happily ever after. Except for Warren, who died of brain cancer.
* Angela looks down.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *sniffs* I totally would have been helpful.
* Ariel smiles softly, "You seem to remember the important things..."
<Angela> "I'll try talking to Warren again..."
* X3 frolics around in hte background
<Chad`Winters> I know.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien bends down, picking up a penny. "Hunh. This feels...familiar somehow."
<Kit> 6Megumi hugs Erevis quickly. 1"Mm, you would have been, Miss Zephyr. It was rough."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods to Megumi, a relunctant accepting nod.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the penny, then tosses and catches it once. "Lets go home."
<DeathStar> -The End-
