[19:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* There are many realities out in the world - thousands upon thousands. Choices we make result in new realities every day - do we go left, or right? However, in many realities, there are always constant factors that rise again and again in every few realities. Heroes that prevail despite all situations. This is one such tale
[19:07] <13@DeathStar> Song 01: The Spirit that Pierces the Heavens
[19:07] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: Between TGC and TAW3. The Prime Reality
[19:07] <13@DeathStar> Location: Earth
[19:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe drives a car down a street as some angry gangs chase them. He's eating an apple, with Dias in the seat next to him. "I told you not to slap her ass."
[19:08] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> And you know exactly what happens when you tell me not to do something. You remember the strippers back in Megacity?
[19:08] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> Whih time?
[19:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe turns a wheel to get onto another street, losing his apple out the window. He leans out to peer back at it instead of the road.
[19:09] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pauses, blinking. 1"The one Eve doesn't know about."
[19:09] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> I'm surprised she hasn't introduced your balls to your ass yet.
03[19:09] * Ariel (kas@76.11.75.225) has joined #taw
03[19:09] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Ariel
[19:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe leans back into the van now
[19:10] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> She prefers them in good shape and all. 6he glances back
[19:11] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> Hm. I could always woo her.
[19:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe drives straight at a blonde guy with glasses, peering down at some juice on his coat.
[19:12] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Right. And maybe you'll get that fivesome you always wanted.
03[19:12] * X1 is now known as X2
[19:12] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> You're just jealous I had three girls wanting me.
15[19:12] * 13X2 crosses the road idilly, examaining said juice.
[19:12] <13X2> Oh bother, that's going to stain.
[19:12] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You do realize one was a fucking cat, right?
[19:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> And I mean that literally.
[19:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe looks up as he hits something, peering back out the window.
[19:13] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> The car is making that noise again.
[19:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Did we hit something? 6He glances around
15[19:13] * 13X2 lies on the pavement; a tiremark tread covering his labcoat
[19:13] <13X2> ...ow...
[19:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe waves his hand in dismissal, leaning back in. "So, I was thinking. We need to find some clues about the Motenks. I was thinking a space trip."
[19:14] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ooooh. 6He peers at Snipe now. 1"You know how I love Space Trips.
[19:14] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> I know, right? 6* He squints his eyes, then shakes his head. "So, we can bring Eve along, and I'll casually forget the cat."
[19:15] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh you have made my day. Literally! 6He squeels with joy. 1"God we're gonna have so much sex."
[19:15] <13@DeathStar> <Snipe> Wait, I can have sex with Eve?
[19:15] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Snipe stares at him.
[19:16] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods at him than starts laughing. 1"Yeah right."
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Snipe frowns. "Dude, that is so---
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: During Season 7. Early.
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> Location: John's Shuttle
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> ---wrong. 6* He shifts the controls as pirates chase them, firing away.
[19:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides along the ships floor behind John. 1"Yeah. I couldn't believe Elayne let me do that to her."
[19:17] <13@DeathStar> <John> Shh. 6* He motions at Em. "Impressionable."
[19:18] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Right. 6He recoils slightly and grabs onto a chair. 1"You think those pirates'd learn by now."
[19:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* John holds up a finger. "Now remember, if you want a return, uh..." 6* He thinks of a new word other than fuck. "If you want a return on your investment...send flowers."
[19:19] <13@Ariel> 6* Em sighs, "Like you guys are such great examples."
[19:19] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Invenstment...Flowers?! I'm lost now.
[19:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sighs as the ship shakes from a hit. "Hold on one moment." 6* He turns the ship back to play chicken with the pirates. "As I was saying, if you want another time with a girl, send them flowers. Ask Em."
[19:20] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Em. 1"This true?"
[19:20] <13@Ariel> 6* Em chokes, "Why are you asking me about this?"
[19:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* The pirates jerk out of the way of being hit, deciding John is insane. "You have breasts and lack a ball sac."
[19:21] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So I can lead into this question. What's your favorite flower?"
[19:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* John wiggles his fingers at her. "And you're all mysterious about your past, too, so surely you have great sex secrets."
[19:22] <13@Ariel> Em> "Lilies. And... no, I'm not like you guys. And... who said I have any secrets?" *looks at them suspiciously*
[19:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pulls out his comm as someone call. He begins to talk to some girl. The pirates begin to redouble their efforts at hsooting them.
[19:22] <13@DeathStar> <John> Because you do that everytime I mention "Secret" "past" "Character development".
[19:23] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Lilies. 6He pulls out a pocket notebook and scribbles something on it.
[19:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* John motions once. "Wouldn't it be neat if we met someone called Lily? Or Lil?"
[19:23] <13@Ariel> 6* Em looks at John like he's insane.
[19:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ya know. It actually might be.
[19:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John puts a hand on Dias' back. "You know it's time for? Me to teach you the ways of a hero."
[19:24] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at John, a serious look on his face, one that says if he's joking he'll break this boy's hopes and dreams
[19:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hits the stop button and puts up a white flag for the pirates to board them. "And the first rule I'm teaching you is how to sucker the bad guys into a sense of lull."
[19:25] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[19:25] <13@DeathStar> Song 02: Be Like That
[19:25] <13@DeathStar> Location: Pirate Ship
[19:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dusts his hands off as he knocks down his 15th pirate, 10 more circling them with energy swords.
[19:26] <13@DeathStar> <John> Did you see how I did that with my fist?
[19:26] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No. I missed it. Can you do it again?
[19:26] <13@Ariel> 6* Em sighs.
[19:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sighs and motions at another pirate. He comes charging in, and John shifts to slam his fist into the pirate's stomach, then shifts, uppercutting him in the chin, sending him flying back into another pirate.
[19:27] <13@DeathStar> <John> It's all in the fist.
[19:27] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Got it. My turn now. 6He hops around motioning to a pirate
[19:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* The pirates eye each other, then rush at Dias. John puts his hands on his hips, peering over at Em. "Can you bounce up and down a little?"
[19:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers about, then leans over and begins to shake Em up and down
[19:29] <13@Ariel> 6* Em scowls, "EXCUSE me?"
[19:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias waits for him to come close then shifts to slam his fist into the pirates stomach, and then shifts again to uppercut him in the chin.
[19:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hey, Dias, look over at this.
[19:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks around to look at John, his eyes going wide
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* The pirate recovers after the hit, then proceeds to leap on Dias to beat him up. John quits shaking Em.
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> Focus, man, focus!
[19:30] <13@Ariel> 6* Em slugs John.
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* John falls over.
[19:30] <13@Ariel> 6* Em winces, "...sorry."
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* John waves his hand once from the floor. "Didn't focus..."
[19:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias is leapt on by the pirate
[19:31] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[19:31] <13@DeathStar> Song 03: I Wonder What It's Like
[19:31] <13@DeathStar> Location: Earth
[19:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leans against the side of a wall, watching as Dias battles a group of Tsivrixsh
[19:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> Remember, Dias. Your heart is your greatest weapon. A superhero is nothing without heart.
[19:33] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias ducks under a fist. 1"Right. Heart." 6He shifts into the tsiv, grabbing at his waist and twisting to throw him into another one
[19:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John gestures at Xanatos. "If you have no heart, you'll be jobless and womanless like him."
[19:33] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide with fear. 1"HEART!" 6He kicks off, dashing in at two tsiv.
[19:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods as he watches Dias get motivated now. He pats Xanatos on the shoulder. "Thanks for coming."
15[19:34] * 13@Xanatos glances at John and nods once. 1Sure.
[19:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh seem to be baffled at the wirely little man beating them up. They begin to "retreat".
[19:34] <13@Xanatos> So you're teaching him to be...a superhero? 6He glances towards John.
[19:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* John puts a hands in his pockets. "Yeah."
[19:35] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias watches them start to retreat than takes a step forward pausing. 1"Wait. John, do villians know Superhero Rule #1?"
[19:35] <13@DeathStar> <John> I doubt it. 6* He calls out.
[19:36] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh than these boys are about to get a huge can of heart opened on them. 6He dashes after them
15[19:36] * 13@Xanatos tilts his head to glance towards Dias. 1He's got talent. 6He notes.
[19:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John smiles a bit as he watches Dias go off, adjusting his uniform a bit. "He does."
[19:36] <13@Xanatos> When do you leave? 6He changes the topic to John being in the military now.
[19:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> A few more months. Warren's got this huge ship called PAX2 being built, after all. We're off to save the universe.
[19:37] <13@Xanatos> Wish I could go. 6He notes glancing up slightly.
[19:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances at him, then looks serious. "If you want to go, you'll find a way. There's nothing you can't achieve if you put your heart into it. I might make it seem like a game with Dias, but one day, he'll understand what I'm teaching him. The foundation he'll need to stand up to the evil in front of him. To right wrongs. You just need to find your heart, Xan.
[19:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pokes him in the chest.
15[19:39] * 13@Xanatos tilts his head. 1Alright. I'll keep that in mind.
[19:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances over his shoulder. "I should go make sure those guys I paid to look like Tsivrixsh aren't being broken in two."
[19:39] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[19:40] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: 10-590.4.16
[19:40] <13@DeathStar> Location: Tokyo
[19:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* The team is currently in position to deal with a V.I. convoy they've been told is moving through the city, under a possible tip. Cheryl stands on a roof with her binoculars, Dias on another roof on the other side. The various members of the unit are scattered about
[19:40] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I see them.
[19:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* On the ground a truck can be seen moving with a tarp on it's back.
[19:41] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias bounces eagerly, waiting for Cheryls cue.
[19:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* X sits near Dias, peering down at the truck.
[19:42] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Cheryl, making random singals
[19:42] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC adjusts her sniper rifle.
[19:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grabs her comm now. "What the fuck are you signaling?"
15[19:42] * 13@Xanatos peers out of one of the windows, peeking out. 1I don't see guards.
[19:42] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances at his comm. 1"Can I jump down on it yet?"
[19:43] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fine, go ahead. Knock yourself out
[19:43] <13@DeathStar> Song 04: Compromise Does Not Exist
[19:43] <13@Xanatos> <Comm> Not literally, Dias.
[19:43] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> *in her comm* I meant it literally.
[19:43] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at X and shrugs as he takes several steps back. He dashes forward and kicks off the roof, heading down for the truck.
[19:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks after Dias, then steps through a ripple, not about to jump off.
[19:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods to Chii now. "Ready?"
[19:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* The tarp is thrown off and a golem rises, firing a beam up at Dias.
[19:44] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias' eyes go wide. 1"X!"
[19:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* X exits her ripple, then opens a ripple for Dias to land on, having him fall out a different angle for the truck
[19:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias flies down at the golem from a different angle, his left hand pulled back. 1"SHIFTING MEGATON PUNCH!" 6He swings his fist in for the golem as he comes in at it
15[19:45] * 13@Xanatos shifts back away fromt he window, moving to get the shuttle, to provide support.
[19:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl smacks her face
[19:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem turns only to get hit by the punch. It stumbles back in the moving truck
[19:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Sadly, a poor lawyer girl is crossing the street as the truck drives down it
[19:46] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands in a crouch beside it and bounces at it, shoulder ramming it's leg.
03[19:46] * X2 is now known as X3
[19:46] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC flicks the safety off and aims at the golem, waiting.
[19:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem falls into the back of the truck front. IT aims at Dias and fires a beam
15[19:47] * 13X3 examines her boobs strainibng against her tight shirt
[19:47] <13X3> Man, shirts should be illegal.
[19:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* The truck runs into X3.
[19:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias's eyes go wide and he leaps to the side of the truck, grabbing onto the bed itself as he drags along the street
[19:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl begins to move along the rooftops.
[19:47] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Durran, that shuttle ready?
[19:48] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC locks on it's head and fires a shot for the Golem
15[19:48] * 13X3 lies on the pavement with tire treadmarks covering her shirt
15[19:48] * 13@Xanatos lifts the shuttle up into the air when Cheryl ask that. 1Yeah, you looking for a pickup?
[19:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jumps onto it. "Yeah."
[19:48] <13X3> ...wo...
[19:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem is hit again, stumbling
15[19:48] * 13@Xanatos glances at her and smirks, then moves out after the truck.
[19:48] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias double takes as he see's boobs.
[19:49] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC quickly pulls the hammer back and fires another shot for the golems head
[19:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* X ripples onto the back of the truck now
[19:49] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks a foot off the street and flips himself back onto the bed, landing beside X. 1"Glad you could make it."
[19:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem holds up a hand to block the shot.
[19:49] <13@DeathStar> <X> Enjoying the road?
[19:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers down at the truck.
[19:50] <13@Xanatos> I don't remember this being part of the plan. 6He notes as he keeps the shuttle above the truck.
[19:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I did, thanks for asking
[19:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem aims at them and fires again. X opens a ripple to redirect it's beam back at the road where X3 is at.
[19:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> One second. 6He holds his a finger to X and turns moving in at the golem again
[19:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* X watches Dias.
[19:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl leaps off the shuttle down, falling toward the truck.
[19:52] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps in close to the golem, crouching as he lands. 1"RISING MOON!" 6He kicks off, somersault kicking into the golem.
[19:52] <13@Xanatos> Oh come'on Xan. What plan? 6He talks to himself.
[19:52] <13@Kit> 6Chii grabs Cheryl's foot and throws herself ahead, giggling quietly.
[19:52] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC lowers her rifle and starts moving along rooftops now
[19:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers back at Chii, then ahead at her.
15[19:53] * 13@Xanatos shifts the shuttle over towards SPoC. 1Need a ride, Darlin?
[19:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem is kicked again. IT roars and grabs Dias, leaping off the truck to fall into a small fountain, then points at Dias, as if saying "OWNED BITCH"
[19:53] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC leaps over and onto the ramp. 1"Thank you."
[19:53] <13@Kit> 6Chii reaches back, pulling out both blades from the cross sheath, having already finished her seals in the process of moving. 1"Merge art. Futon." 6The blades ripple with wind spiraling off them.
[19:53] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances down at the water then up at the golem. 1OUT THIS!" 6He reaches down and throws water up at it's face
15[19:54] * 13@Xanatos gives her a wave of his hand, mumbling to himself as he moves around to keep track of the truck.
[19:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks back off the truck at the fountain. The golem is splashed in the face, then grabs the fountain itself, ripping it's foundation out and swings it at Dias' face
[19:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl flips and lands on the hood of the truck. She grins at the driver.
[19:54] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh crap. 6He leaps up and into the fountain as it's swung into him
[19:55] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans her feet forward to grab at the edge, her tabi giving that freedom, and absorbs the shock with her knees, in the same motion twisting around one, slashing with both blades across the roof, leaping forward and crouching beside Cheryl as the roof flies off.
[19:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl tenses and leaps forward into the truck cab itself since the roof is gone, then punches the driver in the face and grabs the wheel as the truck veers.
[19:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem lets the fountain go. X leaps through a ripple to appear behind the golem.
15[19:56] * 13@Xanatos sees Cheryl and Chii have then truck and spins the shuttle around to give SPoC a shot for the golem.
[19:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC charges up a shot and fires a shot for the Golem's knee
[19:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands up from the fountain, stumbling slightly.
[19:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem is hit in the knee, and shifts back. X forms a holy arrow, firing it through it's back
[19:57] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel opens a ripple under one of the Golem's feet, trying to trap it so the others can beat on it
[19:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* The golem falls half way into the ripple, then flails
[19:57] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head hard and steps out of the fountain and starts weaving towards the golem
[19:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl brings the truck to a stop, giving Chii a grin.
[19:58] <13@DeathStar> Song 05: What We Do Best
[19:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* After a moment, the golem stops flailing and begins to glow with dark energy, getting darker and darker.
[19:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly stops, eyeing it. 1"Everyone back up!"
[19:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* X's eyes widen.
[19:59] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Something is happening to it Durran.
15[19:59] * 13@Xanatos peers over his console to eye it. 1What the hell? What's going on?
[19:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grabs her comm. "How goes the golem?"
[19:59] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel uses a ripple to get further away
15[19:59] * 13@Xanatos taps the comm. 1It's uh, stuck in the ground but getting darker.
[19:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias fumbles for his comm. 1"It's glowing with dark energy and getting blacker."
[19:59] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah? Well, blow it up!
15[19:59] * 13@Xanatos smacks his head and turns the shuttle around to target and fire two missiles for it.
[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the missiles coming in and so she leaps through a ripple.
[20:00] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> X MOVE IT! 6He waves for her to back way up and starts backing up himself
[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* The missiles slam into the golem, causing an explosion. A mini black hole can be seen a moment later.
[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* Minus a golem
15[20:00] * 13@Xanatos widens his eyes. 1Whoa. I wasn't expecting that.
[20:01] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the black hole and grabs onto a stop sign with his right hand. 1"This is bad."
[20:01] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> *in her comm, turning the truck around as she drives back *What?
[20:01] <13Chad`Winters> <DiasComm> It's this sucking black thing. And I didn't pay for a hooker.
[20:01] <13@Xanatos> You might want to stay back Cheryl, blowing it up caused a small black hole.
[20:01] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> *in her comm* Well, blow up the black hole.
15[20:02] * 13@Xanatos tilts his head oddly, then tries to fire a missile for the black hole.
[20:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Alright. 6He shrugs and shifts his foot around the stop sign as he takes a deep breathe and lets it out, black begins to creep along his body.
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The missile is sucked in. The black hole wavers a moment later.
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* But remains
[20:03] <13@Kit> <Chii> Uh, Cherry.
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Chii. "Yeah?"
[20:03] <13@Xanatos> Yeah I didn't think that would work. Think X or Raquel could holy arrow it or something?
[20:03] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel fires a holy beam back through the ripple to hope it works
[20:03] <13@Kit> 6Chii points ahead. 1"I think he meant an actual black hole..."
[20:03] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts completely into Dark Heart mode, his tact suit tearing. He begins forming two dark beams in his hands.
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah, I got that.
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* X fires a holy arrow after Raquel's beam.
[20:03] <13@Kit> <Chii> You can't blow up a black hole.
[20:03] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shoves his hands forward, launching two dark beams for the black hole
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You know how many black holes we've imploded over the last two years?
[20:04] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Aren't black holes black holes because they blew up?
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl considers that.
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* All the beams fly into the blackhole, and it begins to suck wildly everything toward it, beginning to collapse in on itself.
[20:04] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel quickly closes her ripple
[20:04] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Whatever. This is what the elf was good for.
15[20:04] * 13@Xanatos grits his teeth, holding onto the controls to steady himself. 1Everyone needs to get back quick.
[20:05] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks forward and shifts his tail around, latching onto the sign with it.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the truck getting faster without her doing it.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fuck.
[20:05] <13@Kit> <Chii> I could try a dark element on it.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The sign is ripped out of the ground, flying toward the black hole. Imaginary John stands there, waving his hands. "HEART! HEART!"
15[20:05] * 13@Xanatos glances at the truck and hmm. 1Cheryl get onto the roof of the truck. 6He brings the shuttle low enough for them to leap onto it, ramp lowered.
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl climbs out the hole Chii made.
[20:06] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias starts sliding towards it, eyeing John than nods and kicks off, flying in at the black hole, his hands gathering dark energy into them.
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Reaching up, she grabs the ramp edge and pulls herself up, holding a hand down for Chii
[20:06] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC reachs down to help Cheryl with Chii
15[20:06] * 13@Xanatos pauses. 1What the hell is Dias doing?
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes his nails. "Probably should have told him I didn't hire actors to play a black hole today."
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Whatever he does best.
[20:07] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias swings both hands together infront of him as he reaches the blackhole, letting his dark energy fists collide with the black hole
[20:07] <13@Xanatos> Ah, of course.

[20:07] <13@DeathStar> Song 06: A Typical Day
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl slams her beer down onto the table. "Aaaah, now that's what I call a victory."
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes her vodka now, poking it.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> <X> We get booze every mission now?
[20:08] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC drinks her tea quietly.
15[20:08] * 13@Xanatos takes his bottle of vodka and smiles. 1I vote best boss ever.
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon walks in with Ben, hearing there was a party. She sits him down in a seat.
15[20:09] * 13@Jennifer` sits some water, having joined in on the festivities sitting next to SPoC.
[20:09] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slams his foot down on a chair, holding a beer high in his hand. 1"And that was when I stared at the blackhole itself and cried out. You will never beat my heart."
[20:09] <13@Kit> 6Chii hops up and runs over to Lemon and Ben. 1"Beeeen!"
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben peers about, then grabs a glass that looks like water. He looks at Chii
09[20:10] <13@Jennifer`> "Well, it clearly lost."
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits down by Ben. "Hey kiddo. No vodka for you." 6* She takes the glass, the hands him juice.
[20:10] <13@Kit> 6Chii wobbles, then grins widely at him. 1"You want somethin' t'drink..? Not that... Heheh.."
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl points. "You talk worse than I do when I'm drunk, Chii."
[20:11] <13@Xanatos> Doesn't take much to get her drunk, does it?
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Not really.
15[20:11] * 13@Jennifer` giggles a bit and takes another swig of water.
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* X ripples the chair out from under Dias.
[20:11] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes everyone ignore him and scowls, then falls forward, slamming face first into the table and then onto the floor.
[20:12] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks at them. 1"I'm not drunk."
[20:12] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Ow.
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> <X> And then the table defeated the heroic II.
[20:12] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Not very heroic.
15[20:12] * 13@Xanatos tilts his head to peer down at dias and then laughs at X. 1That was funny.
[20:12] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> She said heroic...6He holds his beer up from his prone position
[20:13] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Heroicly unheroic." 6She nods, rising.
15[20:13] * 13@Jennifer` hops up and walks over, poking Dias gently to see if he's actually down for the count and somehow still talking.
[20:13] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I just call it insane."
15[20:13] * 13X3 thrusts a fist clutching a bottle of vodka up from behind the counter. "WOOOO! Dual airbags rock!"
[20:13] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias giggles as he's poked and he suddenly stands up, taking a drink from his beer. 1"A little from column A, and some from column B.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pauses, then turns around to eye X3.
15[20:13] * 13@Xanatos stops mid-drink and tilts his head. 1Uh who is that?
15[20:14] * 13@Jennifer` looks up at Dias in amazement, then backs into a seat.
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben drinks his juice, mute as ever.
15[20:14] * 13@Jennifer` looks over at X3. "Did we get a new recruit?"
[20:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> She looks familiar.
[20:15] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves over to Ben and lifts him up, setting him on his shoulder. 1"Ya hear that Ben? I defeated a black hole with nothing but pure determination and heart."
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> <Ben> ... 6* He nods.
[20:15] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Don't steal my Ben." 6She narrows her eyes.
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Maybe she's the chef. Heeeey. I could hire Marcus as our chef
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grabs her comm, dialing up Marcus' house.
[20:15] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Someday, you can be a super hero too. Ya know that, Ben? 6He smiles at the boy.
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks doubtful
[20:16] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus answers his comm after a bit. 1Yo?
09[20:16] <13@Jennifer`> "Bet he could." *she says as she takes another sip of water*
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Jones. I want to hire you to be the cook.
[20:16] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel sighs and shakes her head.
[20:16] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> All it takes Ben. Is a strong heart. 6He points at his chest. 1"And the will to never back down from any challenge.
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl guzzles her beer.
[20:16] <13@Kit> <Chii> What kind of look is that? Ben, you told me you were going to be a superhero dragon.
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon watches Dias carefully.
[20:16] <13@Xanatos> 6* There's silence for a minute then he nods. 1Uh. Sure. When do I start?
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks down, as if scared now
[20:17] <13@Kit> <Chii> Huh. I was looking forward to it.
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Now. Get your ass moved in - I expect 24/7 service.
15[20:17] * 13@Jennifer` frowns a little, looking over at Ben.
[20:17] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> What about Kat?
[20:17] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ben, I'm going to tell you something, that a great man once told me.
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Chef's are allowed family. 6* She tosses Dias the comm now.
15[20:18] * 13X3 passes out on top of the counter, snoring loudly
[20:18] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Really!?
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You owe me now.
[20:18] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias snatches the comm, eyeing Cheryl. 1"Generals orders." 6He tosses it back to Cheryl
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl catches it and clicks it off, then motions at X3. "Isn't that the lawyer chick Darien always has around?"
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks at Dias, waiting.
15[20:19] * 13@Jennifer` looks at Dias too.
[20:19] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> If you ever want a return on your investment. Buy her flowers. 6He nods than pauses. 1"Wait, that's not it."
[20:19] <13@Xanatos> <Xanatos> It might be. Darien keeps quite a bit of company these days.
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hm. Might be a good idea to hire her with Dias on the team.
15[20:19] * 13@Jennifer` gawks a bit.
15[20:19] * 13X3 belches in her sleep
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben stares at Dias now.
[20:20] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans on an elbow, peering at Ben. 1"You're still going to be a dependable guy, aren't you? You promised..."
[20:20] <13@Xanatos> <Xanatos> Do we even know if she is talented?
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben nods at Chii
[20:20] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Right. If you ever have a moment of doubt, you can always count that I'll believe in you.
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> She survived being hit by a car.
[20:20] <13@Kit> 6Chii nods and smiles. Then hiccups.
[20:20] <13@Xanatos> <Xanatos> I meant in the courtroom.
[20:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances up at Ben now, a smile on her face at Ben looking happy for once. "Darien pays her, she must be good."
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* X drinks her vodka, making a face. She looks at Raquel. "You did good today, IX."
[20:22] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So tell me Ben, you gonna follow in uncle Dias's footsteps and become the worlds greatest superhero?
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> Song 07: A Typical Day Continues
15[20:22] * 13@Jennifer` smiles a bit and looks between Dias and Ben.
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben nods more.
[20:22] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *smiles some* "...thanks. You didn't do bad yourself."
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> <X> Of course. I'm the ultimate weapon
[20:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias beams with pride. 1"Let me hear a victory yell."
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks down now, embarrassed.
[20:23] <13@Xanatos> Well I only almost blew up one person today. My personal best. 6He nods, taking a drink of his vodka.
15[20:23] * 13X3 rolls off the counter and hits the floor.
[20:23] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> If you give me a victory yell, I'll teach you one of my ultimate techniques.
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks sad now.
[20:23] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "You... do keep reminding us that." *giggles*
15[20:23] * 13@Jennifer` says quietly, "Come on Ben..."
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl crosses her arms, watching Ben and Dias.
[20:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Not yet, huh?
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks apologetic.
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> <X> Hm. I suppose I do say it too much
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* X ripples some sake over for Lilith
15[20:25] * 13@Jennifer` has a wind taken out of her sails look as she looks down at her water.

[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben smiles.
[20:28] <13Chad-Sleep> 6Dias holds his fist out towards Ben for a terrorist fist jab.
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Ben does it immediately.
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sighs a bit and stands up, a bit of a sad look, and moves out of the mess hall
14[20:29] * Chad`Winters (chesterbot@c-76-17-177-230.hsd1.mn.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
03[20:29] * Chad-Sleep is now known as Chad`Winters
15[20:29] * 13@Xanatos rubs his chin slowly, then stands up. 1The old me wouldn't let this opportunity slip by.
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6*X eyes Xanatos. "What opportunity?"
[20:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias watches Cheryl go than sets sets Ben in Lemons lap.
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, then wraps her arms around Ben.
[20:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC tilts her head at Ben and Lemon then looks around at the others.
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben looks at Chii, then leans toward her for a kiss
15[20:30] * 13@Xanatos glances towards her and gives a slight shrug. 1Nothing, nothing.
[20:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slinks back and steps outside after Cheryl, glancing around for her
15[20:30] * 13@Jennifer` watches Ben now with a warm smile.
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is moving down a hallway with her bottle in hand. She drinks from it.
[20:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops forward, moving after Cheryl. 1"Something the matter?"
[20:31] <13@Kit> 6Chii grins, then leans over and kisses him on the forehead, probably looking quite awkward doing so.
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances at Dias, then shakes her head. "Thanks for being so good with Ben. He really likes you."
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes X3. "Should I ripple her to your room so you can use her?"
15[20:32] * 13@Xanatos arches a brow, 1Oh no. I'm not that person anymore. But thanks for the offer.
[20:32] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pauses, caught off guard slightly and he starts rubbing the back of his head nervously. 1"Well you've got a special kid, it's the least I can do."
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're a good guy, Dias.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* X3 shrugs. At that moment, Lilith would suddenly pass out at the table.
[20:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I had good people to raise me. 6He smiles slightly.
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl waves her hand. "I'm sure Zephyr would be glad to hear that."
15[20:34] * 13@Jennifer` gets up and walks over towards Ben.
[20:34] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It'd go straight to her head. 6He laughs lightly. 1"I'm who I am because of Zephyr, John and you, Cheryl."
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I had nothing to do with it. All I did was kick your ss.
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> *ass
15[20:35] * 13X3 snorts, then sleepishly takes another swig off the bottle
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* X3 turns to peer at Lilith face down on the table, then pokes her. "I didn't see her drink much."
[20:36] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> A lot not that I think about it. 6He glances up and off to the side for a second than shakes his head. 1"But really. If you never laid the foundation, I probably wouldn't be here today."
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* X did all that. X3 is a drunk
15[20:37] * 13@Jennifer` takes a seat closer to Ben and returns to sipping her water.
15[20:37] * 13X3 is a drunk indeed.
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben leans against Lemon like a child cuddling his mother
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah yeah. John gave you everything you need to fight.
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl takes a long swallow of her alcohol.
15[20:38] * 13@Jennifer` smiles a bit and looks around at others, her face shifting into a distant look as she starts to think about something, glancing at Ben a bit sometimes, but this just seems to get her more distant.
15[20:38] * 13X3 wakes up screaming
[20:38] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Cheryl. 6He points both fingers at her. 1"I'm giving you a compliment and god damn't, I will continue to work it until ou have choice but to say thanks.
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben jerks at the screaming, then begins to cry.
15[20:39] * 13@Jennifer` snaps out of it to look at X3. "Huh?"
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fine. 'Thanks'.
[20:39] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Feels kinda weird, doesn't it?
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah. So don't do it again.
09[20:39] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh jeez."
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, then begins to try to comfort Ben with soothing sounds and hugs
15[20:39] * 13@Jennifer` gets up and moves herself in front of Ben, looking at X3. "You... alright Miss?"
15[20:39] * 13X3 holds up her bottle of vokda. "I'm out of booze!"
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes X3, then ripples her more vodka, liking the woman's name.
15[20:40] * 13@Jennifer` facefaults. "...Th-That's all...?"
[20:40] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No promises. 6He shrugs. 1"Look, maybe you don't want to admit, or maybe you dont' see it. But we never stop teaching each other. I still look upto you.
15[20:40] * 13X3 eyes Jennifer. "What do you mean 'That's all'? What more is there?!"
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Not much to look up to here. 6* She shrugs at that one. "Everyone can do what I do better."
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* X goes back to checking on Lilith, worried now
15[20:41] * 13@Jennifer` shrugs, "Can't imagine what..." *She turns and takes a seat by Ben, rolling her eyes.
[20:41] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Than you take one step forward and learn to do it even better. You never give up and you never surrender. 6He crosses his arms now. 1"You know who taught me that?"
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben stops crying
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> McCormick?
15[20:42] * 13X3 looks at the vodka that's magically appeared in her hand. "I didn't know booze replenished itself!"
[20:42] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Nah. 6He points at Cheryl. 1"You did."
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts.
09[20:42] <13@Jennifer`> "All good Ben." *she smiles a bit*
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're making me blush. Keep it up and I might send Lemon to give you a night to remember.
[20:44] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias snorts with laughter. 1"If you ever feel like you're not moving forward Cheryl, just ask and I'll push.
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* The lights flicker, and alarms go off. An intruder is in the base. Appearing in the mess hall is none other than Billy, hovering over the table
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> Song 08: The Other End of Typical Days
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl looks up, then eyes her datapad, frowning . She moves for the mess hall.
[20:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances up then looks at Cheryl, moving in after her.
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* X glances over at Billy.
[20:45] <13@Kit> <Chii> Billy? What's up?
[20:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks over at Billy.
15[20:45] * 13@Xanatos glances up from drinking his booze quietly, he peers at Billy.
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> I came to warn you about the end of the universe.
15[20:45] * 13@Jennifer` looks at Billy. "...Again?"
[20:45] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Again? We just averted it twice.
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl enters the mess hall.
[20:46] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps in after her, eyeing Billy. 1"Billy? What's up?"
15[20:46] * 13X3 blinks a few times at the announcement, then chugs her vodka.
[20:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy puts a hand to her chin, not smiling. "Two beings of immense power are coming to this universe. They are stronger than all of you."
[20:46] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias crosses his arms. 1"And?"
15[20:47] * 13@Xanatos sets his bottle down and leans forward. 1This universe, eh? They're not from here, I take it.
09[20:47] <13@Jennifer`> "So... what...?"
[20:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns and she looks over at Cheryl
[20:47] <13@Kit> <Chii> What... kind of beings? More progenitors?
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy shrugs, then snaps her fingers, a datapad appearing and landing on the table. "I don't know. I just had a vision of them coming into this reality from another. And they have more strength than any enemy I've seen so far."
[20:48] <13@Kit> <Chii> But you're stronger, right?
15[20:48] * 13@Xanatos rubs his chin slowly. 1Gues we'll be earning out pay, then.
[20:48] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias claps his hands together. 1"Than I have no choice but to show them how weak they really are.
[20:48] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> I don't know.
[20:48] <13@Kit> <Chii> ... Well fuck.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She grabs the datapad. A count down timer is in the corner, along with a spot on the map highlighted.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> They'll be arriving at that place when the timer hits 0. 6* She shadowports.
[20:49] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Cheryl. 1"How much time do we have?
15[20:49] * 13@Jennifer` rubs her head a little. "So... what now?" *She looks at Cheryl.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> 10 minutes. Just enough to get out there.
[20:49] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Well hell? Do we -avoid- the spot or head to it?
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves for the hanger. "Come on, people. Lemon, watch Ben for me."
[20:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Than let's get going. 6He adjusts the tattered brown headband
[20:50] <13@Kit> <Chii> Going, heh..? Kuso...

[20:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Drake sits on a rock, peering up at the sky. He glances over at her, a smile on his face. "Hey, Lil."
[20:51] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Ah... Drake.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Drake looks serious now. "Something bad is coming. I sense, Death, Lilith. Two beings are coming - and they have the stench of death on them. Especially the smaller one."
[20:53] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ...What should I do?
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Drake stands up. "Beware the smaller one. He will kill X if you're not careful."
[20:54] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ...U-Understood.
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Drake walks over and kises her on the forehead. "I wish you luck, Lil."
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* The world begins to fade away, like a painting that's losing it's focus.
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> Location: Hanger
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets in the van, since it'll be easier. Powering it up, she looks back
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> All aboard.
[20:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC quickly climbs in, shifting her rifle in her arms.
15[20:56] * 13@Jennifer` stands there, probably to see them off, a nervous look on her face.
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* X is still by Lilith who would snort awake suddenly. She ripples them both into the van
[20:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves to the front, taking the drivers seat if its open otherwise the passenger seat
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> <X> Are you well now?
[20:56] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Mm... Yes.
15[20:56] * 13@Xanatos holds a thumb up from his spot.
[20:57] <13@Kit> 6Lilith eyes the van and sits up. 1"...Are we... on a mission?"
[20:57] <13@DeathStar> <X> Yes. Billy told us that two enemies are coming
[20:57] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> How much time do we have?
[20:57] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Mistress Billy did?
[20:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl begins to drive them toward the spot. She eyes the datapad. "6 minutes."
[20:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods.
[20:57] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Than let's punch it.
[20:58] <13X3> WOO! Armageddon!
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl motions at X3. "Why's the lawyer here?"
[20:59] <13@Xanatos> I didn't have the heart to turn her away.
[20:59] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well I am on the team.
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods once, driving along. She almost runs over some guy in all white
[21:00] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So wait, why do I get a lawyer now, but I couldnt' have one of those court typer people?
[21:00] <13X3> An apocalyptic drinking game, duh.
14[21:00] * Ariel (kas@76.11.75.225) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
03[21:00] * Ariel (kas@76.11.75.225) has joined #taw
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Why the fuck would you want a court typer?
03[21:01] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Ariel
[21:01] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So in case I need to go, read that back, I have someone who'll read everything that was said back
15[21:01] * 13X3 hiccups. "D-do ya mean a stegnograsarus?"
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You want to pay for one, go the fuck ahead. Just not on missions
[21:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I kinda can't get one after you scared the last one I hired off.
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I did that?
[21:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I don't know, but you see, if I had one of those, we'd know right now
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl brings the van to a stop the street. People stare at them stopping, but make no move to honk since it's a military van
[21:03] <13@Xanatos> Should I start ushering people away?
[21:03] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> If those people are arriving here, we should clear these guys out.
03[21:03] * Wiendigo (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #taw
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Get on that.
[21:03] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans over and downs the window on Cheryl's side, then leaps out nimbles and pulls herself onto the roof of the van, peering about.
03[21:03] * Wiendigo is now known as X1
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> Song 09: The Two Enemies
[21:04] <13@Kit> <Chii> Yo, everyone get lost.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* A blue sphere begins to form in the street.
[21:04] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias rolls his window down and sticks his upper body out. 1"You heard the....SHIT! EVERYONE MOVE NOW!"
15[21:04] * 13@Xanatos gets out of the van and eyes the sphere. 1Everyone get back!
[21:04] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Cheryl, start backing up now.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* X steps out now. People begin to move away.
14[21:04] * X3 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
03[21:04] * X1 is now known as X3
15[21:04] * 13@Xanatos begins to back up, glancing around, he slips out his pistols.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl backs the van up a safe distance. The sphere vanishes and two men stand there, one slightly shorter by a few inches. Both are dressed in armor and face masks.
[21:05] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pulls himself out of the van and lands on his feet and stands up, eyeing the sphere. 6SPoC hops out and trains her rifle on the two men
[21:05] <13@Kit> 6Lilith steps out aside X and reaches into her chest, pulling out the lance-- she immediately forms her armor and assumes the visage of her inugami persona-- a bit hasty for her, but she seems to have been motivated since awakening.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one peers over at them all. "It's always the same thing."
[21:05] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the two men cautiously. 1"Who the hell are you two and give me three reasons why I shouldnt' take you down."
[21:06] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Mistress, you should not participate unless you have to.
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets out of the van now, activating her whip.
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> <X> Why would I not fight?
15[21:06] * 13X3 hangs out of the van window with her vodka in hand. "KICK THEIR ASSESES! WOOOO!"
[21:06] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I was warned of your safety.
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one talks, apparantly eager to avoid a fight. "Look. We don't want to kill you. Just stay out of our way."
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> <X> By whom?
[21:06] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans over and kicks X3 with the back of her heel. 1"Don't provoke 'em, you dumbass!"
[21:06] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ok, that's one reason. I need two more.
15[21:06] * 13@Xanatos watches them carefully. 1Why are you here?
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Civilians will get caught in our fight.
15[21:07] * 13X3 falls out of the van
[21:07] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ok that's two reasons.
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* The smaller one begins to hold out his fist, and the ground begins to shake. He's clearly doing things.
[21:07] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...And that's one reason why I'm going to have to say no.
[21:07] <13@Kit> 6Chii stumbles atop the van, but remains standing. 1"What the hell's that!?"
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Just stay out of our way. For your own good. We'll leave once we're done.
[21:07] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias starts walking towards the two now. 1"Not until I know what you're doing."
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> <Smaller One> Eliminate them.
[21:08] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *eyes these guys uncertainly, keeping a hand on her sword but not acting*
[21:08] <13@Kit> <Chii> The last time something like this happened, the whole fucking world about died. I'd rather that not happen, you know, I'm just starting to like life.
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Whatever they're doing, we can't let them do it.
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one sighs and steps forward. "Then I'll be your opponent, I guess."
[21:09] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sorry guys, this is going to end now. 6He cracks the knuckles in his left hand and dashes in at the taller one
15[21:09] * 13@Xanatos begins to charges his pistols, eyeing them both.
[21:09] <13@Kit> 6Lilith moves forward slightly. 1"I do not wish to fight, either."
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The smaller one stops shaking the ground, then steps back away from the fight zone, apparantly not going to get up in the fight
[21:09] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC begins charging her rifle up, keeping an eye on the shorter one
[21:10] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hey, shorty, what were you doing?
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> I wouldn't provoke him if you want to live, little kid.
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one shifts his stance, holding up his fists
[21:10] <13@Kit> 6Chii peers at the taller. 1"I just want to know what the fuck you two are doing here. Is that too much to ask?"
[21:10] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias comes in low and plants his foot, twisting around for a sweeping leg kick at the tall one
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Beat me, and maybe I'll tell you
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> Song 10: Round 1 Begins
[21:11] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're asking for it. Vagueness pisses me off, you know.
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Taller One leaps over the kick and lands to the side, smoothly.
[21:11] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hey Cherry, we need a workout, or should this be quick and neat?
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rushes in and whips out at the taller one. He spins and grabs the whip, twirling and throwing Cheryl at a building.
[21:11] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias finishes his rotation and kicks off, throwing a spinning kick at the taller one as he throws Cheryl
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* X gets her holy arrow ready and fires at the taller one. He shift to avoid the kick, punching into Dias' stomach, then uppercutting him into the arrow.
[21:12] <13@Kit> 6Chii spins on her heel and kicks back one of her cuffs, hurtling her wire past Dias and toward Cheryl, so that when she hits it it bends and wraps slightly around her. She crouches and digs her feet and free hand onto the van edge, yanking Cheryl back toward her.
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Just like every other reality. Weak.
15[21:13] * 13@Xanatos holds his up his pistols and fires the charged shots for the Taller One now that everyone is clear.
[21:13] <13@Kit> 6Lilith seems to be refusing to move far from X, remaining emotionless.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is pulled back.
[21:13] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide from the both punches and pain shoots across his face as the arrow hits his back.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Taller One shifts to avoid the shots. "Now that's not fair."
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> <X> Dias!
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X rushes toward Dias in a paic.
[21:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> How about it, Cherry?
[21:13] <13@Xanatos> From the looks of your moves, it seems pretty fair to me.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl makes a face. "I'm going to tear him apart with my hands."
[21:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands roughly on his back, coughing up spit. He groans as he slowly rolls onto his side and then onto his feed
[21:14] <13@Kit> 6Chii yanks her wire away and coils it back up. 1"Aw, I wanted to try something."
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one rushes at Xanatos now.
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Like what?
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* X touches Dias' back trying to help heal him with her own life energy.
[21:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> We have almost all our reserve since we've been resting. A full elemental wheel.
15[21:14] * 13@Xanatos pulls up his the pistols and fires shots for his legs, to force him to take the shots or leap over them.
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> How do we do that?
[21:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias coughs again, standing up now, nodding to X. 1"I'll be good. Just caught me off guard."
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one shifts around the shots like an ice skater, grinning as he moves in at Xanatos in a blur almost, kicking the guns from his hands.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> You're right. It was fair
[21:15] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC jerks her aim at Xanatos and the taller one, holding her shot for a clear one
[21:15] <13@Kit> <Chii> You know Deep Freeze and Rose Liberation..? Well, use all six of the affinity elements.
15[21:15] * 13@Xanatos frowns. 1Damn. 6He moves to jump back, dropping something behind.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright. How do I help with that?
[21:15] <13@Kit> 6Chii grins. 1"Instead of three for greater rengekis."
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one peers down.
[21:16] <13@Xanatos> 6* It's a silver disc that Xanatos would cause to explode once he got clear.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Balls.
[21:16] <13@Kit> <Chii> Well, it's best if we split it between heaven and hell. Light and darkness relationships.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* He's caught up in the explosion.
[21:16] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC quickly opens fire into the explosion
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're talking foreign talk to me.
[21:16] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It won't happen again now that I know what to expect. 6He smile sat X and turns to eye the explosion, waiting
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods to Dias, peering at the explosion.
15[21:16] * 13@Xanatos lands and slides back, quickly pulling up his beam sabers, activating them.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Taller One steps out of it now, his armor looking a bit sooty now
[21:17] <13@Xanatos> Seriously?
[21:17] <13@Kit> 6Chii shakes her head. 1"Look, I'll handle it this time. I'd like to see the pure affect, but how about I give you a merge art rengeki?"
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> I warned you this wouldn't be a fight you'd want to engage in.
[21:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC quickly loads a grenade and launches it at the taller one
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright.
[21:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias takes several deep breathes and dashes in towards the taller one
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Taller One leaps to the side of the grenade.
[21:17] <13@Kit> <Chii> Just beat the shit out of him with every element." 6She thumbs up, then shifts her stance to start forming seals.
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the taller one, getting ready
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> How about we fight one at a time? Any heroes in this reality?
[21:18] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Yes.
15[21:18] * 13@Xanatos pauses and groans loudly.
[21:18] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Coming right at ya. 6He kicks off hard at the taller one.
[21:18] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I am a superhero.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one eyes the two of them, twisting his body over Dias. "Nice hair, girl."
[21:18] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes the Tall one, not sure what to do.
[21:19] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> X!
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens a ripple as the taller one jumps. He enters and smashes right into the road.
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> ... so no heroes.
[21:19] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands. 1"I said me, bud."
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> Song 11: Round 1 Continues
[21:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one rises now. He rushes at Lilith, moving faster than a normal human. He throws a punch for her jaw.
[21:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves toward the taller one now, wrapping her whip around her fist.
[21:20] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns, growling slightly as he finds the taller one and dashes in at him
[21:21] <13@Kit> 6Chii begins a long string of her seals in rapid succession-- she's practiced, after all. 1"Katon, Suiton, Hyoton, Doton, Raiton, Futon!" 6She finishes, holding up both hands, Cheryl would feel strange in the hands, since she seems to be focusing on her fists. 1"Affinity of Enmity!"
15[21:21] * 13@Xanatos slowly moves around the T1 in a circle.
[21:21] <13@Kit> <Chii> Merge art.
[21:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one punches Lilith's jaw, hard. It would be enough to send her back. He eyes Cheryl coming in
[21:21] <13@Kit> 6Lilith blinks and leans her back into a curve away, ---or not
[21:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl punches at the taller one's face mask, smashing her fist against it.
[21:22] <13@Kit> 6Flames would burst from the impact point like an old lantern breaking.
[21:22] <13@Kit> <Chii> Ichi.
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens three ripples near the taller one, then unleashes arrows through them. The arrows come raining down, and the taller one leaps back from the flame fist and lets the arrows slow down Cheryl
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Ai yi yi. You guys can put some fight.
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> <Smaller One> Quit playing with them and kill them already
[21:22] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias dashes in at the taller ones side as he leaps back and throws a left hook for his face
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one ducks a bit as Dias throws a hook, then punches at Dias in a rapid blur of a thousand hits
[21:23] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel opens a ripple in front of the tall one's fist, so it'd hit him in the jaw from below.
[21:23] <13@Kit> 6Lilith leans and lands on her hands and flips back to her feet despite an imperfection. She narrows her eyes-- and then shifts and rolls through one of the ripples X made for the arrows-- emerging near the taller and slamming her lance at him in downward arc.
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one winces, ending his attack and stepping back.
[21:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias hits the ground, his eyes going wide from the attacks he took. 1"...That attack."
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one is then hit by the lance. He stumbles.
[21:24] <13@Kit> 6Lilith drops and sends a leg out so she can spin, slashing horizontally.
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one reaches out and grabs the lance, then blurs, smashing the end into Lilith's nose.
[21:24] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias tenses as he pushes himself up. 1"WHO TAUGHT YOU THAT ATTACK?"
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Self taught
[21:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's impossible. Only two people know that attack.
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* He steps back, his face mask having a crack from ripple hits he did to himself.
15[21:24] * 13@Xanatos frowns. 1Katrina and John.
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* X growls and begins to move in at the taller one, forming a blade of energy.
[21:25] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances around, clearly looking for something or someone
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves in as well, throwing a punch for Taller One's back.
[21:25] <13@Kit> 6Lilith jerks her head back, coughing, but reaches into her chest despite, pulling out the second weapon, her runes shifting to darkness-- probably a shock to X in the link, her head forced back down to eye the taller through watery tears-- She steps afront of X, gripping the hilt of her nodachi, leaning forward and slashing with enough presence to make three attacks almost simultaneously.
[21:25] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Tsubame gaeshi..
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* X comes to a stop. "L-Lilith? Move."
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks a bit out of it now, trying to figure out what's going on.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one twists out of the way of all three slashes, moving like a blur. He steps back. "Wow."
[21:26] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Where are you from? 6He starts moving towards the taller one now.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Taller One eyes Cheryl circling him and Lilith now.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Another reality.
[21:27] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You can't be the same man. 6He tightens both fists, cracking his right knuckles now.
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* He suddenly blurs, and hits Cheryl in the throat with his elbow, causing her to grab it in pain. He then smashes his fist into her face, sending her flying into a wall.
[21:27] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> CHERYL! 6He growls even more and kicks off, dashing in at the taller one now
15[21:27] * 13@Xanatos grits his teeth and shakes his head, turning to move after Dias.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers around Lilith now at the fight. She tries to go around Lilith.
[21:28] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC continues to keep her distance.
[21:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith lets go of the sword, gripping the light lance leaps upward, her runes going back to light, spinning and crashes quickly into the ground. She eyes the Taller One, then leaps back, leaving a strange light source. 1"...Shinde."
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* The taller one looks down
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> <Taller One> Balls.
[21:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith holds up her fingers, then snaps, causing the impact point to explode in light.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* He's hit by the explosion, sent stumbling back.
[21:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps through the explosion as it dies down and swings a left fist in for the mans mask
[21:29] <13@Kit> 6Lilith reaches out to take the nodachi back, wincing as she sets it back within her, gazing at X. 1"...Sorry, mistress."
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias' fist hits the mask and causes it to shatter.
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> Song 12: You!
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* The red haired man holds his face, stepping back. John McCormick.
[21:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands, than steps back, from shock. 1"John..."
[21:29] <13@Kit> <Chii> Omaera..!
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Dias, then punches forward at Dias' jaw.
15[21:30] * 13@Xanatos slides to a stop. 1Son of a bith...John isn't supposed to be the bad guy.
[21:30] <13@Xanatos> NRP: bitch*
[21:30] <13@Kit> <Chii> Cherry, you still have five of the elements imbued. Finish the combo!
[21:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias head snaps to the side from the hit, causing him to stumble hard
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl strains to stand up. "Y-Yeah." 6* She moves in quickly now.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> So there's a me in this reality, too? Where's he at?
[21:30] <13@Xanatos> Dead.
[21:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias plants his hand on the ground to stop himself from falling. 1"He died...Saving people."
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shakes his head once. Cheryl comes in and swings her fist in at John's face. He dodges, only to be hit in the stomach by her knee.
[21:31] <13@Kit> 6Water would come rushing up from the ground
[21:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias rubs his jaw and he stands up, stumbling slightly to regain his footing.
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl then rears back and punches again at John's face. He grabs her fist, then is sent up by the water.
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'm trying to save people, too. 6* He says as he flips in the air and lands behind Cheryl, hitting her in the back hard to damage her tactical suit and cause a crack sound.
[21:32] <13@Kit> 6The point of Cheryl's fist would emanate freezing temperatures-- ice forming.
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl falls to her knees.
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* John smashes his hands together to break the ice.
[21:32] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Do not compare yourself to John. 6He turns, eyeing John with anger.
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sorry, Dias. But I am John.
15[21:32] * 13@Xanatos twists and throws the beam saber out for John. Ala the Force Throw.
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> Song 13: Burning Spirit
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John twists and grabs the hilt of the saber, holding the saber out.
[21:33] <13@Kit> 6Chii leaps over Cheryl, having moved in during the engagement, flipping in the air and dropping her foot down at his neck/shoulder while he's catching. 1"Sorry, Cherry, I'm taking over.
[21:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No, you're not. He died a hero, you, you're nothing like he was. 6He takes several breathes, shifting into his fighting stance
15[21:33] * 13@Xanatos lets out a breath, holding his ready.
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John blurs suddenly as Chii comes in and the saber is driven up Chii's fot.
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John lets go of the saber and hops backwards.
[21:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias let's out a breath and dashes in at John as he reappears from the blur
[21:34] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks, her foot encased in rockery and earth-- trying to resist. 1"G-Gh..."
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dashes at Dias. He leaps up and over Dias, then lands and begins to do a thousand kicks at his back.
15[21:34] * 13@Xanatos comes in now and tries to shoulder ram John away from Dias.
[21:35] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pivots on his foot as John leaps over him, his forearms moving infront of him as the kicks come flying in
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is rammed and stumbles back.
[21:35] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts his weight forward and he moves in at John as he stumbles, throwing a strong elbow for his gut
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit in the gut, his armor cracking there. He grins a bit, apparantly having fun.
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves in with her blade now.
[21:36] <13@Kit> 6Chii curses and lands, her face now twisted into frustration and anger, losing little time in closing distance to John-- As he's knocked back she runs forward, one blade drawn and set in a stabbing motion for his side, crackling with electricity. 1"Hyaaa!"
[21:36] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias rolls and snaps around, swinging his knee in for John's side
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leaps straight up to let Dias and Chii's attacks hit each other.
15[21:37] * 13@Xanatos flips a disc up for John like one would a coin, as he's mid-air.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John spins and kicks the disc back at Xanatos.
[21:37] <13@Kit> 6Chii strains and sends her blade straight up, the electricity lanceting upwards at him as she slides-- slamming her side into Dias' knee, crying slightly.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John looks down as the lance comes up. "Balls."
[21:37] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pivots his foot as Chii slams into it and he twists with her to bring her to the ground softly.
15[21:37] * 13@Xanatos shifts himself to the side, then widens his eyes and jumps before as it explodes, knocking him forward.
[21:37] <13@Kit> <Chii> S-Son of a bitch. Do you really need to train on metal...!?
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit and shocked. He falls from the sky and begins to land on the ground. A car pulls up and Marcus and Katrina get out; Katrina's jaw is dropped open.
[21:38] <13@Kit> 6Chii just lies there for a moment, squinting.
[21:38] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sorry...6He takes several steps back, his right hand sliding into his pocket and tightening. He looks over at John. 1"It's time for it."
[21:38] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps out and pauses. 1Wait a minute, isn't that?
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X stabs at John as he lands. He spins and grabs her arm, twisting and breaking it. He throws her toward Dias.
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* John stares back at Katrina, who stares at him like she's seeing a ghost.
[21:38] <13@Kit> 6Lilith slides in the way, catching X. 1"M-Mistress..!"
[21:38] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts and leaps backwards, grabbing X as she flies at her.
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... Right. Time for the ultimate attack.
[21:39] <13@Kit> 6Lilith peers at Dias-- co-catching.
[21:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods at Lilith and dashes in at John. 1"MY TURN!"
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> Song 14: Round 1 Dramatic End
[21:39] <13@Kit> 6Chii stands and whirls her body around, hurtling the fuuma shuriken at John-- it seems wreathed in wind. 1"Dodge this, bastard!"
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Another John only Dias can see holds out his fist. "HEART, DIAS."
15[21:39] * 13@Xanatos pushes himself upward, letting out a slight groan.
[21:39] <13@Kit> 6Lilith nods to Dias and takes up holding X.
[21:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks off the ground and into the air, his right hand pulling backwards, as a bright light begins to pour from out of his fist.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* John turns to eye it coming in. He twists to avoid it, but it leaves him open to Dias.
[21:40] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus eyes the weapons he brought with him and then glances towards Kat, frowning he just looks forward.
[21:40] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> BURNING FIST! 6He comes down at John, his right hand snaps open to reveal a strong flash go off and Dias twists, sending his left fist flying in for John's head
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit by the left fist hard, his head snapping to the side. He begins to fly back from the impact of the blow, spinning in the air toward Marcus' car.
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* X has her eyes closed, in obvious pain
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* The smaller one shakes his head and vanishes in a teleport.
[21:41] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands sliding, his right hand smoking and slightly burned.
[21:41] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus widens his eyes and moves to leap over the car hood and pull Kat aside.
[21:41] <13@Kit> 6Chii just smirks sadistically-- and shifts her hand, adjusting the fuuma's path to follow John's landing location
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* John slams into the car, making a huge indent in the car. He eyes the fuuma coming in. "Balls."
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Invisible John nods. "Remember, Dias. Believe in me who believes in you."
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina blinks as Marcus moves her away from the car.
[21:42] <13@Kit> <Chii> Elemental wheel. Affinity of Enmity.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sighs a bit, hanging his head.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> <John> It's always the attacks that take the longest that do the most damage.
[21:43] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias rises, craning his neck over to the invisible John then pounds his smoking fist into his chest then looks over at the other John. 1"WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK I AM?"
[21:43] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Dias.
[21:43] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus eyes the shuriken and then Chii and shifts to shield Kat if there is an explosion, probably more so to shield Kat from what's about to happen.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit by the fuuma
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl strains to stand, holding her back.
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* The fuuma and wind attack tears into his armor, slicing it off, leaving just a plain shirt and boxers now.
[21:44] <13@Kit> 6Chii rubs her face and goes to join Cheryl quickly. 1"Cherry, you okay?"
[21:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at X. 1"You gonna be good?"
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Straining, John stands up now and hops off the car. He points at Dias. "Oh yeah. You're just as strong as he is, maybe." 6* He grins, apparantly not going down yet. Katrina moves in suddenly, and begins to beat into him with his own attack - a thousand punches. John flails comically.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods, holding her arm in silent pain.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods. "Yeah. He just broke some bones."
[21:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods back, smiling and dashes in at Kat and John.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Invisible John is busy groping X3.
[21:46] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses and looks confused.
[21:46] <13@Kit> <Chii> Just?! I love those bones! Bastard!
[21:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit by each punch as Katrina continues to attack him, moving faster and faster. John tries to block them, being knocked back.
[21:46] <13@Kit> 6Chii holds up a hand without looking-- catching the fuuma.
[21:46] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> You. Are. Not. My. Brother.
15[21:46] * 13X3 groans and sits there. "Ugh, not another ghost groping..."
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina finishes with a hit to his gut, causing John to hunch over.
15[21:47] * 13@Xanatos watches Kat, his expression shifting to that of a frown.
[21:47] <13@Kit> <Chii> The knee, Kat! You're a kick boxer
[21:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias dashes in around and comes in to Johns side. 1"1000 FIST PUNCH FINISHER! 6He slides in low and swings his fist upwards for an uppercut
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps back as Dias comes in. "Dias can be my knee."
[21:47] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hohoho.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is hit by the uppercut and goes upward, then sails back and hits the ground, not moving now.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> Song 15- Post Battle
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> <John> You win... 6* He manages to say, blood running down his lips.
[21:48] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts his feet, looking down at John now. 1"You owe us an explanation than."
[21:49] <13@Kit> <Chii> Yeah, you said you'd tell me what the hell you were doing!
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* John strains to sit up, holding his ribs. Katrina peers down at him silently, her hands in fists.
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah. I never lie to a pretty lady.
[21:49] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks, then jerks slightly, eyeing Cheryl, squinting.
[21:49] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Wow. 6He comments slightly, towards Kat as he steps up beside her.
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* John begins to speak. "We're going from reality to reality collecting their crystals."
[21:49] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...What crystals?
15[21:49] * 13X3 takes a chug of her vodka then hands the bottle to the ghostly John
[21:49] <13@Xanatos> Crystals? He steps forward.
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> I don't know. I just know we need them to save our reality.
[21:50] <13@Kit> <Chii> Their crystals? ...The fuck's that mean? ...Freyja'd probably gasp or something. Sounds important.
[21:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> And why dont' you have one?
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Invisible John tries to grab the bottle. He sulks when he can't
[21:50] <13@Kit> 6Lilith moves over and holds the bottle for John, peering at him.
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> *shrugs* The multiverse is diseased. We were told the crystals would save it.
[21:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> Diseased?
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> And our reality.
[21:51] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stares blankly. 1"I'm lost."
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* X sits on the ground, holding her arm in silence.
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> He could tell you more.
[21:51] <13@Xanatos> So you kill any who get in your way? Not very heroic.
[21:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> He ran off..
[21:51] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> He who? 6He looks around confused
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> My partner. 6* He eyes Xanatos. "I just do what's needed. I don't like killing."
[21:52] <13@Kit> <Chii> His killing intent disappeared during the fight." 6She twitches.
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina crosses her arms, peering at John.
[21:52] <13@Xanatos> Doesn't stop you from doing it though. 6He straitens up.
[21:52] <13@Kit> 6Lilith tilts the bottle-- as if feeding the vodka to John, even if he can't drink it, then holds up a hand as if saying a prayer. An offering!?
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs, peering to the side. "I owe him everything. So I do what's needed."
[21:52] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh, him. We'll deal with him next. 6He crosses his arms as he moves over to X. 1"Who is he?
[21:52] <13@Xanatos> Who is 'he'?
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's datapad begins to beep. The base is under attack.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fuck.
[21:53] <13@Kit> <Chii> Beep? What's beep-fuck?
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> The base is under attack. God. Ben and Lemon. 6* She moves for the van
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pauses in saying who it is, eyeing Cheryl.
[21:53] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Shit...6He slides over to X. 1"Can you ripple us there?
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> <John> Wait, "Ben"?
[21:53] <13@Xanatos> Cheryl's son.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* X shakes her head. "Can't focus."
[21:53] <13@Kit> 6Chii dashes past Cheryl, leaping right back in the window. She starts it and slides the van around-- kicking the opposite door open. 1"Get in!"
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... this is bad.
[21:54] <13@Xanatos> Elabroate.
[21:54] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Damnt. 6He picks her up and runs to the van
[21:54] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I can take a person or two quickly."
[21:54] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus moves to grab Kat's hand to get into the van.
[21:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Raquel. 1"Take me than.
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina helps John to his feet and moves for him the van. "Explain on the way, brother."
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> Location: Base
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer is enjoying a relaxing day at the base with the team gone.
15[21:55] * 13@Jennifer` sits reading in the rec room.
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon is with Ben in Ben's room. She sits watching him
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> Song 16: Trouble at the Base
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* There's an alarm sound as an intruder enters the base.
09[21:55] <13@Jennifer`> "Crap..."
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* A moment later, there's a strangled noise and the alarm stops. The lights flicker.
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon glances up, then moves to pick up Ben, who's quivering in fear. She moves to the bed after turning off the lights.
15[21:57] * 13@Jennifer` looks around and groans, remembering everyone's gone and gets up, putting down her book and heading into the hall, heading for the living quarters.
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* As she moves down the hallway, she can see a shadow approaching from the direction
15[21:57] * 13@Jennifer` looks for a doorway and ducks into it.
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* A man in white armor peers around, then heads for Lemon and Ben's room
15[21:58] * 13@Jennifer` frowns and slowly follows behind the man after he passes, sliding her gun out.
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man stops, then turns to face Jennifer.
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> Song 17: Pierce the Limitations of Your Spirit
15[21:59] * 13@Jennifer` holds her gun ready. "Where are you going? Who are you?"
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* He steps forward and blurs in front of Jennifer, then punches her straight in the gut, enough to take the breath out of her.
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* He begins to follow it with a punch for her temple.
15[22:00] * 13@Jennifer` gasps and stumbles backwards, her hand swinging up to block the man's followthrough, stepping back more.
[22:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* His fist hits her hand, breaking parts of it
15[22:00] * 13@Jennifer` gasps in pain and backs up more, firing at him.
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man steps to the side of the shot, then blurs forward and grabs her gun, breaking it with his armored hand
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> <Man> Weak.
15[22:01] * 13@Jennifer` blinks for half a second before dropping and sweeping at the man's legs.
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man stands there as her foot does nothing to his stance. He turns to walk on for Lemon's room, apparantly finding her unworthy
15[22:02] * 13@Jennifer` stands slowly, glaring at him. "I can't let you go on."
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man stops, turning to face her. "You will die."
15[22:03] * 13@Jennifer` gets ready. "Sorry, but I made a promise about that."
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man shrugs, then turns to face her completely.
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* He steps forward in a blur and suddenly his fist is pounding against her ribs, breaking three. The impact would knock her back down the hallway.
15[22:04] * 13@Jennifer` moves her fake hand forward, waiting. She hits the floor and slides a bit, but stops herself, standing slowly.
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man approaches her again
15[22:05] * 13@Jennifer` readies herself again, waiting for the blur to come.
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man blurs again and grabs her hair, lifting it up.
15[22:05] * 13@Jennifer` cries out and punches at his face with her metal hand.
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* He moves his second hand forward for a neck break
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* He pauses at the metal hand hits his face armor, then continues with his second hand for her neck.
15[22:06] * 13@Jennifer` tries to keep him away, grabbing at his arm. "No!"
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* At that moment an energy sword stabs into the armored back of the man. He lets her go, turning to eye Pope. The man blurs, his hand reaching into Pope's chest with a bloodied plop sound, and he rips out his still beating heart, causing blood to gush
15[22:07] * 13@Jennifer` hits the floor hard and backs away a little, looking up to stare at the horrific scene.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man crushes the heart in his hand, facing Jennifer once, then moving on for the room
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Pope falls to his knees. "Bloody 'ell..." 6* He dies
09[22:08] <13@Jennifer`> "Pope... HEY! I SAID I CAN'T LET YOU GO ON!"
15[22:08] * 13@Jennifer` pulls herself up weakly, leaning against the wall a little.
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man turns to face Jennifer once more. He blurs his hand pressing against her chest, about to rip into her.
15[22:08] * 13@Jennifer` brings her metal hand down at his arm as she shoves herself off to the side from his strike.
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man blurs after his attack is blocked, hitting her in the face, and knocking her back. At that moment, a ripple from RAquel opens.
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> Song 18: The Wings of Reality
[22:10] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps out. 1"You've gone far enough."
15[22:10] * 13@Jennifer` goes sliding across the floor, blood flying a little a she lands.
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man eyes Dias, then blurs, his fist in his gut, then blurs again, his fist hitting his temple hard.
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* As he approaches Dias, wings seem to flicker behind him, as if they're being willed to appear. For whatever reason, the man seems to be going all out now.
[22:11] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide from the fist to the gut then begin to roll back as the second fist slams into his temple, and sends him slamming into the hallway wall
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves through a ripple by Raquel.
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man lifts off the ground and zooms forward at Dias, ignoring Cheryl. He brings a foot down at his head.
[22:12] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly opens his eyes and twists to try and avoid the incoming foot
[22:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl forms her whip and begins to rush after the man, a bit slow from her injury.
[22:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man holds out a hand and force pushes Cheryl back, his fist glowing even in his armor
[22:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You hit like...well I haven't been hit like that yet.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man flickers again and punches the walls on either side, causing the hallway to begin to lose structure intregity. It begins to collapse around Cheryl and Jennifer. He zooms down the hallway, leaving Dias to decide if he wants to save them
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pushes herself up, eyeing the ceiling beginning to fall down.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Goddammit.
15[22:14] * 13@Jennifer` groans and slowly sits up, she blinks as the hallway starts to crumble. "Not good..."
[22:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes it and and pushes himself up and over to the two, throwing his arms up to grab the cieling as it falls. 1"GO NOW!"
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snarls and grabs Jennifer, moving out of the collapse range.
[22:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias left knee gives out as his face begins to go beat red and sweat beads off it
[22:14] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel gets out of range, and opens a ripple for Dias
15[22:15] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a bit, still dazed, a line of blood running down her face, she moves herself the rest of the way as she gathers what's going on.
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man punches through the door to Lemon's room. She rises, rushing at him with energy gathering, and he punches into her chest, his fist going through her completely. Ben stares in horror. He leans forward and whispers something in her ear, then rips his fist out. He approaches and grabs Ben. "There is a man who wants you, Ben. I'm shocked you exist in this reality."
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* The van, driven by Xanatos, arrives in the hanger.
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon collapses to the floor, damaged. Blood and sparks oozing out
09[22:16] <13@Jennifer`> "B-Ben..." *she struggles to her feet* "Is he alright?"
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I don't know. I had to save your ass first. 6* She moves around the collapsed area for Ben's room
[22:16] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the ripple through strained eyes and he lets go of the cieling leaping for it.
15[22:16] * 13@Jennifer` stumbles a bit and heads after her.
[22:16] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel quickly closes it behind Dias so no rubble comes through
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man flies through the roof with Ben, leaving a hole. He moves off with him.
15[22:16] * 13@Xanatos slides the van to stop, hopping out of it and rushing forward to the inside of the base.
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps out and peers out the hanger at a person flying off.
15[22:17] * 13@Xanatos skids to a stop, peering over his shoulder. 1Damnit, are we too late?
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> Song 19: Failure
[22:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands on both knees, breathing heavily
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rushes into Lemon's room and eyes her on the ground. She looks around. "Ben?!"
[22:17] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus gets out of the van and peers up, squinting. 1It looks like it.
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sits in the van, tied up
[22:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC gets out of the van, glancing up. She begins mvoing inside to find Jennifer
15[22:18] * 13@Jennifer` steps in after her, looking around blearily, "Oh god no..."
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl kneels by Lemon. "Where's Ben at?!"
[22:18] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias grimaces as he pushes himself up and begins moving to Lemon's room
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* X narrows her eyes, clearly thinking about revenge
[22:19] <13@Kit> 6Chii slides to a halt in the room-- leaving bloody footprints from having moved right past Pope, pausing at the new puddle she's standing in.
[22:19] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...
15[22:19] * 13@Xanatos moves quickly for a shuttle, rushing in to get it started up.
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon strains. "He...said...he was taking Ben. And that if...you wanted him back...to show up...at the spot...they arrived...tomorrow...at...the same time."
[22:20] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias grabs the doorway and looks at Cheryl. 1"Cheryl, I'm sorry."
[22:20] <13@Kit> <Chii> I-- ...
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl takes several strained breaths, quivering in rage. She slams her fist into the wall.
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon closes her eyes. "I failed..."
[22:20] <13@Kit> 6Chii twitches slightly, then flares her eyes, her fingers clenching tightly, then she relaxes, turning and walking back out silently.
15[22:20] * 13@Jennifer` stands there, she closes her eyes and clenches her fist.
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Someone get Lemon to Caduceus.
[22:21] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Jen. 6He motions to her
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl removes her fist from the wall now.
15[22:21] * 13@Jennifer` nods, in clear need of a doctor herself, she helps Lemon up and starts for the medical bay.
[22:21] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes off the doorward and moves over to Cheryl. 1"We'll get him back."
[22:22] <13@Xanatos> <Comm> Cheryl, I got a shuttle going. Are we going to pursue?
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* With the man out of sight, that's practically impossible. She just walks off without answering Xan, leaving her comm with Dias
[22:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias watches Cheryl walk out and grabs the comm. 1"No. Get everyone inside."
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon is pretty heavy and bleeding just as much. She looks like she doesn't have the will to live.
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> Song 20: Now What?
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> Location: Briefing Room
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits at a table; though Cheryl is absent, there's a meeting going on. Alexander Cran is on a monitor, joining in the meeting that way.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> <Alexander> Any ideas what the crystal is?
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sits in the brig
[22:24] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands there, no shirt on, his chest wrapped tightly with bandages. 1"Nothing more than it has to do with the mulitverse.
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon lays in the medical bay, awake and silent. X is in the briefing room, her arm healed by Caduceus
15[22:25] * 13@Xanatos shakes his head slightly. 1Not really. But they have something to do with saving the multiverse, or so they've said.
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> <Alexander> It's most likely a trap or a distraction - this time thing.
[22:25] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I dont' care what it is. I'll be there.
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> <Alexander> Should I call in other units? Darien Starr?
[22:25] <13@Kit> 6Chii moves into the brig slowly, her eyes locked onto John.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* John seems to be brooding, eyeing the floor.
15[22:26] * 13@Jennifer` steps into the brig with a tray, she looks at Chii quietly, then at John.
[22:26] <13@Kit> 6Chii stands in front of the cell-- not bothering with her usual attitude or crossing her arms.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands in the armory, eyeing weapons in silence.
[22:26] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> As strong as this guy is, we're going to need all the help we can get. But he's dangerous.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> <John> So he took him. 6* He surmises.
[22:26] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus sits there with his head propped up, trying to think of something to add.
[22:27] <13@Kit> <Chii> I want to know.
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> <Alexander> I'll see if Darien will help then. Do you think General Cheryl is still fit to lead?
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> <John> Know what?
[22:27] <13@Kit> 6Chii drops her head slightly. 1"... ..."
[22:27] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias crosses his arms. 1"Yeah I do."
15[22:27] * 13@Jennifer` slides the food through to John. She stands back and crosses her arms, looking between Chii and John.
[22:27] <13@Xanatos> I believe she wants to kill the man that took her son. And that's enough for me right now.
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> <Alexander> Alright. 6* He ends the transmission
[22:27] <13@Kit> 6Chii slowly gazes at Jennifer, not looking friendly at all.
15[22:28] * 13@Jennifer` doesn't look happy herself, still a little bandaged, though her own gaze is apologetic for her failure.
[22:28] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns to look at everyone. 1"This is bad."
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes. Maybe John can tell us more.
[22:29] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> It would help if he could tell us who it is. Maybe so we can learn what style of combat he uses and stuff.
[22:29] <13@Kit> 6Chii doesn't seem appreciative or responsive to that. Her hand quivers slightly, as if she might reach for any of the numerous weapons she's carrying.
[22:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at Kat than nods and moves out of the room and starts heading towards the brig
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> If you want to kill me, I understand. But if there's anything I can tell you, I'll do so. 6* He notes
15[22:29] * 13@Jennifer` looks back at John. "I think she wants to know more about the creep that took my brother."
15[22:29] * 13@Xanatos glances at the time. 1I'll have a shuttle ready, maybe we can use it in the fight. 6He stands up and moves to step out.
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina gets to her feet, moving after Dias.
[22:29] <13@Kit> <Chii> That's a start...
[22:30] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus stands up and moves after them.
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> You know him pretty well. Well, your reality's version of him.
[22:30] <13@Kit> 6Chii peers back toward John, there is something else on her mind, though.
09[22:30] <13@Jennifer`> "...Who is he?"
[22:30] <13@Kit> <Chii> I have a good idea.
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Chii. "Yeah? Who do you think it is?"
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias and Katrina and Marcus enter the brig.
15[22:31] * 13@Jennifer` scratches her head. "I don't know anyone that punches like that. Well... Dias maybe."
[22:31] <13@Kit> <Chii> If you hadn't died here, I'm pretty sure there's someone we could always find near you.
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Dias. "Yeah?"
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well, the ladies do like me.
[22:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps in. 1"Yeah I'm here. We want some answers."
[22:32] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus glances between them all, crossing his arms quietly.
[22:32] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why's he want Ben?
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> <John> Because our leader said if we ever found someone called Ben and was near Cheryl, to bring him to the leader. He also requested Cheryl, if the said boy was in the reality.
[22:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So there's more than just you two?
09[22:33] <13@Jennifer`> "So... who is he, and who is your leader?"
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> <John> I don't know who our leader is - I'm not really part of the inner circle. They don't exactly trust me. As for who the guy that has Ben --- that's our version of you, Dias.
[22:34] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Wait. So we're fighting Dias? What happened to the heroics? That guy just seems like a prick.
[22:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts slightly. 1"...Start from the top."
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs. "He saved my life. Taught me how to survive. Protected me. I owe him everything."
[22:35] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> What exactly are these crystals?
[22:35] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Hopeless..
[22:35] <13@Xanatos> <Marucs> Huh, it happened the other way around in this reality.
[22:35] <13@DeathStar> <John> I don't know. I was just told they would save our reality and end the disease in the multiverse. We were told to kill anyone we had to along the way, because it could be fixed later.
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> <John> Apparantly every reality has one, and if we gather them all, something big is suppose to happen
[22:36] <13@Kit> <Chii> Tch. Gift of the Gods all over again.
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> There's also 7 special crystals. But we haven't found any of those.
[22:37] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias crosses his arms. 1"Just how dangerous is your me?
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rubs the back of his head. "I can't beat him, that's for sure."
[22:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Has anyone ever beaten him?
[22:37] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...special crystals?"
[22:37] <13@Kit> <Chii> I'm sure he can be beaten.
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shakes his head. Taken off his person was a black wrist device, that can be seen on a table nearby.
[22:38] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Wait, quick question. Do these crystals serve a purpose for a reality or anything?
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> <John> They're the life blood of the reality. But it's not like it would die right away - it would take thousands of yeras.
[22:38] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Wait. You're killing realities to save your own!?
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> <John> Like I said. Our leader said it could be fixed later.
[22:38] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes John now. 1"That...that's wrong."
[22:38] <13@Kit> 6Chii continues staring at John. 1"He was strong. Very strong-- and ruthless. Unless he was different to begin with, people like that only serve someone stronger."
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes them all. "They say something evil created the multiverse, and there's a disease ailing it. We have to save it."
[22:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias snorts.
[22:40] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus hmmms. 1Wait. Weren't we part of the reason the Multiverse was created?
[22:40] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It was Xevil.
[22:40] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Right. I was too busy dying in the core.
[22:41] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I... think I missed that."
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* John looks at the ground. "So, now that I answered all your questions, are you going to kill me?"
[22:41] <13@Kit> <Chii> Death isn't quite what I'm considering." 6She just continues to stare at him.
[22:41] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It depends.
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* John looks at Chii, then nods once. "I guess whatever you decide is fair."
[22:42] <13@Kit> <Chii> You must not know very much about me.
[22:42] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I have a rule. To never kill a man who's intentions were good but misguided.
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> Huh. You're different from him, alright. 6* He eyes Dias. "He said if you failed to do what you set out to do, you should just sacrifice yourself."
[22:42] <13@Kit> 6Chii slowly glances at Dias, but doesn't feel the need to elaborate on how she doesn't.
[22:43] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> We don't kill our enemies. We befriend them and hug them and stuff. It's true.
[22:43] <13@Kit> 6Chii peers toward Marcus.
[22:43] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Failures are nothing but trials for a superhero to overcome.
[22:43] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *eyes Marcus* "...you never hugged me."
[22:43] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus smiles at Chii, then pauses and hugs Raquel.
[22:44] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So let me ask you this. Do you see your loss as a sacrifice, or a trial?
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers down. "Heh. You're so different than him. I never got why he saved my life after he killed his enemies so ruthlessly. He'll try to kill you all - and I've never seen him fail
[22:44] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *hesitates* "...well... I guess it is true then."
[22:44] <13@Kit> 6Chii closes her eyes, crossing her arms now. 1"If I devour you, with Cheryl, it might be enough."
[22:45] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus chuckles and straitens up, crossing his arms. 1I know how to fight Dias. We can take him down. If he's still a horndog at least.
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Dias now, making a face. "That's one way to kill me."
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> *Chii
[22:45] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I won't let her kill you.
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'm sure I'd make a tasty soup.
15[22:45] * 13@Jennifer` sits remains to the back a bit, listening and watching John.
[22:45] <13@Kit> <Chii> I eat souls.
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina speaks up. "Chii. Everyone deserves a chance to make things right."
[22:46] <13@Kit> 6Chii opens an eye to stare at John some more. 1"But I often starve."
[22:46] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You're living proof of that Chii. Or are you going to tell us we were wrong with you?
[22:46] <13@Kit> <Chii> They're all a bunch of goody-goodies.
[22:46] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Especially someone that was doing something for the wrong reasons.
[22:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Katrina, shaking his head. "And you're different form my Kat, too."
[22:46] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus coughs and motions from himself to Kat, giving John a wink.
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> John. You know killing others isn't right. I can feel your feelings - you don't like doing what you're doing, but you feel you owe this Dias everything. Why not listen to your heart and help a Dias who cares?
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... I don't...suppose I can have some time to think? 6* He peers to the side, still conflicted. He seems to be loyal, to say the least.
[22:48] <13@Kit> <Chii> Tell you what.
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Chii again
[22:48] <13@Kit> 6Chii you have to sun-up to decide. But if you don't 'do the right thing.' I'm devouring you.
[22:48] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You're not touching him Chii.
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at Chii, frowning a bit.
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* She nods to John and walks out
[22:49] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Chii. Cut the shit. Now. Get out of here. 6He motions.
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sounds fair.
[22:49] <13@Kit> <Chii> No. I'm not kidding at all. Ben's involved.
[22:49] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> And either am I. 6He eyes Chii.
[22:49] <13@Kit> <Chii> If he decides to help, you have nothing to worry about." 6She sits in front of the cell, closing her eyes.
[22:49] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> You can't take both of us. He didn't have anything to do with ben. You have a problem, take it out on the other Dias.
[22:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Or is that the type of person you want Ben to know?
[22:50] <13@Kit> <Chii> I told Ben how I am. I told him to be better.
[22:50] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> The ol, 'Do as I say, not as I do.' Routine? That never works, Chii.
[22:50] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're the 'superhero,' Dias. Why do you think he looks up to you?
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Look. I don't mind a pretty lady sitting with me. 6* He tells the two. "You should do whatever you need to do to get ready to fight my Dias."
[22:51] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Maybe you should step up for once Chii, and become a better person.
[22:51] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> God knows you have in you.
[22:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> I know where I lie. And as dumb as you are-- You're a good model for him.
[22:52] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head and moves out.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: Night.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> Song 21: In The Air Tonight
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien sits in the general's room, going over security and information on their enemy, to get caught up. Cheryl sits on the roof, drinking away, trying to numb her pain inside. X, meanwhile, sits in the mess hall, eyeing a plate of food with no hunger.
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits in her room, peering at the ceiling, thinking.
[22:53] <13@Xanatos> 6* Xanatos sits in the hanger, wiping his hand on an old oily rag. He's been working on a shuttle, since Pope isn't around to do it anymore.
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes his hand as he sits in the brig, as if trying to decide what he sees.
[22:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts his feet around as he lets out a breath of air in the training room. His traning bag infront of him
15[22:54] * 13@Jennifer` comes down into the brig again, carrying dinner for John, she sets it down and slides it in. "Thought you might be hungry again."
[22:54] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps out of the bathroom, having just finished brushing his teeth. 1Kat. You ok?
[22:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC sits in the armory, running through a rifle.
[22:54] <13@Kit> 6Chii sits still and quiet, eyes still closed. If not for her rigid, arms-crossed posture and the occasional tail or ear twitch, she'd probably be thought asleep.
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon lays in the medical bay, a frown on her face, looking as depressed as a robot can be
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at the other uneaten food. "Sorry. No appetite."
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head a few times.
15[22:55] * 13@Jennifer` takes the old tray. "Well, maybe you'll change your mind."
[22:55] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hrmph. He didn't teach you to be a proper warrior?
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl keeps drinking, wiping at her eyes. Chii could probably feel in the bond a loneliness, though she doesn't seek anyone out.
[22:55] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps forward, throwing his fist into the bag as his body twists.
[22:55] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus moves to sit down beside her, putting his arm around her shoulder to pull her close to him.
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* John makes a smile. "Well, I don't want to much fat on me when you devour my soul."
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina leans in close to Marcus. "It's hard to see him again. He's so like my brother, yet not. And Chii will kill him."
[22:56] <13@Kit> 6Chii stands up. 1"A warrior never turns down a meal-- since they're never sure which will be their last."
[22:56] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> I won't let her Kat. I won't.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> I already had my last. 6* He notes, leaning his head against the wall.
[22:56] <13@Kit> <Chii> You can't fight properly if your hungry. Don't make excuses.
09[22:56] <13@Jennifer`> "She's right. And you're not dead yet."
[22:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias grabs the bag with his other hand and leans over, grabbing a towel and tosses it over his head. He turns and moves into the hallway, heading down it
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> That's what I'm saying. I'm not going to fight him. He might be...wrong. But he's my friend. He saved my life. I can't fight him. So that means my soul is yours.
[22:57] <13@Kit> <Chii> How idiotic.
[22:57] <13@Kit> 6Chii snarls slightly. 1"You're right, he's nothing like this one."
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers to the side.
15[22:57] * 13@Jennifer` stares at him. "There's no way you could be John McCormick."
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves through the hallway, having come to help.
[22:57] <13@Kit> <Chii> If he was anything like him, you would have learned to never give in. You'd beat some sense into that thick skull of his. It'd be easier to find these crystals if everyone worked together, wouldn't it?!
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> <John> If your John could beat down his best friend, then yeah, I'm not your John.
[22:58] <13@Kit> <Chii> Kill everyone. Fix it later. I think you're being played.
[22:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* John closes his eyes.
09[22:58] <13@Jennifer`> "I never knew the John from this reality. But the John from mine would at least try and beat some sense into his friends if they got out of hand."
15[22:58] * 13@Xanatos glances up to see Erevis pass by the hanger, he gets a slight frown and looks down to the ground again.
15[22:58] * 13Chad`Winters steps into the generals room and takes a seat across from Darien. 1"Bring me upto speed."
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Apparantly, we're about to fight another Dias from a different reality, who's looking for crystals.
[22:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves into the messhall and plops down beside X. 1"You should eat."
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers at Dias, at the food. "Yes." 6* She takes a bite of food.
[22:59] <13@Kit> 6Chii flat out yells. 1"And you'll just sit back and let him run around like a puppet, too!? How fucking stupid are you!? Unless you know them well, which you don't, for all you know, that valuable little prick of yours will just be killed off when his usefulness runs out!!"
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina peers at Marcus, then leans against him, closing her eyes
[22:59] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> I know that he's not your brother, but it doesn't make it hurt any less when you see him, it probably makes it worse, makes you realize what you've lost.
[22:59] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Tell me what's bugging you."
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <John> I doubt it. He's got the ear of the leader. He wanted this job. He likes doing what he does.
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <X> I was defeated as if I were nothing
[23:00] <13Chad`Winters> And waht do we know about him?
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Apparantly he likes to kill.
[23:00] <13Chad`Winters> Convenient
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> A little bit. I want to help him.
[23:00] <13@Kit> <Chii> Then why are you alive?
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs.
[23:00] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> I do too. Everyone deserves a second chance, don't they?
09[23:00] <13@Jennifer`> "And you don't like doing this, do you?"
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> I guess this is what Dias would be like if he hadn't met you
[23:00] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So what?
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> <X> It means I'm not that strong!
[23:01] <13Chad`Winters> You saying I'm actually a good influence?
[23:01] <13@Kit> <Chii> Don't shrug it off. WHY!?
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> At times.
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> <John> He said he saw something in me. 6* He states. "He wanted me to learn to be like him."
[23:01] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> He took me down without breaking a sweat.
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> <X> You're not the ultimate weapon.
[23:01] <13@Kit> <Chii> What's he like?
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl falls onto her back, staring at the sky.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks up to Cheryl and sits by her. "We'll get him back."
[23:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You're right. I'm not. But I still was defeated. And you know what? That just makes me want to try that much harder to be better.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... he's the greatest warrior I've ever seen. He protects our reality with everything he has - his enemies are all dead. He spares no one that's in his way.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... You're right.
[23:03] <13@Kit> <Chii> You want to be like that? Someone who kills everyone in their way?
[23:03] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... no
[23:03] <13@Kit> <Chii> You want to disappoint him and die in vain?
[23:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina nods a few times, silent for a bit
[23:03] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> I think so
15[23:03] * 13@Xanatos stands up and drops the rag at his feet. He turns and moves to step out into the hallway.
09[23:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Maybe you should act on what you want, what you feel, instead of following someone around."
[23:04] <13@DeathStar> <John> He's already written me off. I'm in here, aren't I? I failed. He's probably expecting me to end my life.
[23:04] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fallings not so bad, X. Because it' when we're able to use our friends to push us back up and overcome things.
[23:04] <13@Kit> <Chii> Then he's weak.
09[23:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Some friend..."
[23:04] <13@DeathStar> <X> Hm. 6* She nods, thinking to Lilith
[23:04] <13Chad`Winters> Hmmm. 6He twirls a bottle in his hand. 1"So basically we're in deep shit."
[23:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy hovers in the darkness, peering at the base silently.
[23:05] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> We'll get through this and after it all, we'll give him the chance to make up his mind on how he wants to live his life, if he decides to be a bad person, then we'll be there to stop him. But I believe he'll make the right choice, he seems honest.
[23:05] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Probably. This reality thing doesn't seem like it'll end, even if we beat him.
[23:05] <13Chad`Winters> You're right. Odd's are they'll keep sending people to get what they want.
[23:05] <13@Kit> <Chii> Why don't you show him he's piss wrong, huh?
[23:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rubs his face. "And who says he's wrong? What if this is necessary?"
[23:05] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> When you're feeling weak, X. I'll be your strength.
[23:05] <13@Kit> <Chii> He's not the strongest he can be.
[23:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* X squints at Dias. "So I can drain you of energy?"
[23:06] <13@Kit> <Chii> He never will be.
[23:06] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'll talk to him. But I won't fight him. If you want to kill me for that, fine. But I can't fight him.
09[23:06] <13@Jennifer`> "Any plan to save the multiverse by dooming the lot of it doesn't exactly sound like a plan, does it?"
[23:06] <13@Kit> <Chii> I never asked you to fight him, dumbass.
[23:06] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks, almots slipping out of his chair. 1"Well, I guess if it came down to that...I was more talking about other kind of support."
[23:06] <13@DeathStar> <X> What other kind?
[23:07] <13@Kit> 6Chii twitches somewhat. 1"He'll lose."
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr reaches out and pats Cheryl, who covers her face up
[23:07] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias points at his chest. 1"I'll believe in you."
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes a seat in the rec room
[23:07] <13@Kit> <Chii> I think you should see that.
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... how is that strength?
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods.
[23:07] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sometimes, believing you're better is all it takes to be better.
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods, then rubs the back of his head. "Say, if you beat him, want me to give you a victory kiss?" 6* He says with a big grin
15[23:07] * 13@Xanatos finally steps into the rec room, moving over towards the pool table.
[23:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers toward Xanatos. "Hello, Xanatos Durran."
15[23:08] * 13@Jennifer` sighs, "Some things never change, no matter what John it is."
15[23:08] * 13@Xanatos pauses and jerks slightly, not expecting that. 1Oh. Hey, Erevis.
[23:08] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... 6* She stares at him.
[23:08] <13Chad`Winters> I'm gonna go check on Cheryl. 6He turns, moving out, the bottle rolling between his fingers
[23:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis gives him a smile, then seems thoughtful. "It seems as if tomorrow will be difficult."
[23:09] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Superhero rule number #2. A Hero's strength not only lies in their own, but in the people that believe in them.
[23:09] <13@Kit> <Chii> If that's what it takes to get you to realize being merciless is a huge mistake. Being strong is one thing-- but the strongest there is never fights alone. The strongest there is keeps getting stronger. Friends, family-- learning from mistakes, trials and failures.
[23:09] <13@DeathStar> Song 22 - No More Walls
[23:09] <13@DeathStar> <X> Is there anything you cannot beat? Are there no walls that can stop you? 6* She says after a thought
[23:09] <13@Xanatos> Yeah...It doesn't seem like we can catch a break around here, can we?
[23:10] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hm. Well, if I can get a kiss from someone as pretty as you, then it'll be worth being taught a lesson. 6* He says with his grin still on his face
[23:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Chad go, then peers at the papers.
[23:10] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I've hit my walls before. 6He rests his hands behind his back. 1"But I've always stood back up and went at them again. Never giving up.
[23:10] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. It does seem that way.
[23:10] <13@DeathStar> <X> Hm. Perhaps you are more of an ultimate weapon than I.
[23:10] <13@Kit> 6Chii pauses, then rubs her face, an ear folded back. 1"...Mou, I swear... No wonder he's like that."
[23:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii points at John, snarling. 1"Don't forget it."
[23:11] <13@Xanatos> Are you sure you want to be part of this? You have a family to consider.
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> <John> I couldn't forget anything a pretty lady like you says.
[23:11] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head. 1"Nah. I could never take that title from you."
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I will provide back up support in the event you require it.
[23:11] <13@Kit> 6Lilith leans in. 1"Good. I would have to beat you and give it back to her."
[23:11] <13@Kit> <Lilith> We fight as one, after all. My strength is her's.
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks at Lilith, then nods. "Lilith, do you believe in me?"
15[23:11] * 13Chad`Winters steps out onto the roof, his hand quickly grabbing onto the bottle.
[23:11] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Always.
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers at Chad, then at Cheryl. She gets up to give them time alone.
15[23:12] * 13@Xanatos nods his head once. 1I don't want to see your risking too much, this one is merciless, and you've got more to live for than to throw your life away.
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> <X> So you will not stop me from fighting? 6* She refers to Lilith's getting in front of her earlier.
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> You do as well, Xanatos Durran
[23:12] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias smiles, clearly happy
15[23:12] * 13@Jennifer` crosses her arms and sighs a bit, "Alright, well we can let the charmer stew... you gonna guard him all night Chii?"
[23:12] <13@Kit> 6Lilith nods to X. 1"I only have your safety in mind. Please believe in me, as well." 6She holds a hand to her chest.
15[23:12] * 13Chad`Winters nods to Zephyr as he moves over to the two.
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> <X> I always believe you.
[23:12] <13@Kit> 6Lilith smiles, then bows pollitely.
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gives Chad a smile and steps back inside. Cheryl feels about for her bottle.
15[23:12] * 13@Xanatos smirks slightly, picking up one of the pool balls. 1It makes me feel a bit better, knowing you'll have my back.
[23:13] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Dias believes in you as well.
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I am glad.
[23:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Together, you two could probably overcome any obstacle.
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> <X> He does. He also believes in you.
[23:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> There's no reason to guard him anymore.
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* John blinks at that, peering at Chii.
[23:13] <13@Kit> 6Chii shrugs, turning to go. 1"Fuck, let him out for all I care. He'll keep his word."
15[23:13] * 13Chad`Winters takes a seat on the roofs edge, rolling the bottle along his fingers again. 1"Hey."
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> <John> How can you be sure?
09[23:13] <13@Jennifer`> "Heh... okay. Maybe you should go find Cheryl."
[23:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> A pretty lady told you to.
15[23:13] * 13@Jennifer` looks at him. "She's got you there."
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* John reels, a hand to his chest. "I've been beaten."
15[23:14] * 13@Xanatos nods once and then lets an awkward silence set in. 1Uh, yeah well...do you want to play a game with me? 6He motions to the pool table.
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers at Chad, her eyes red. She grabs her bottle, taking a swallow, grunting in response.
[23:14] <13@Kit> 6Chii peers back once. 1"I don't think it was me, though." 6She shrugs and leaves, heading for the roof.
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "I do not know how to play with a table."
[23:14] <13Chad`Winters> It's hard, isn't it?
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...
15[23:14] * 13@Jennifer` looks at John now. "Even like this, it's kinda nice to see you."
[23:15] <13@DeathStar> <John> Uh, thanks.
[23:15] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's true.
[23:15] <13@DeathStar> <John> Who are you, exactly? I know they call you Jen
[23:15] <13@Xanatos> Hah. Well it looks like I didn't exactly teach you everything, have I? Well come'on then, it'll be like old times.
09[23:15] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh, Jennifer Carmichael."
[23:15] <13@DeathStar> <John> Huh. Don't know you from my reality. Nice to meet you
[23:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands and moves over to the table, eyeing it. "It does not look fun."
09[23:16] <13@Jennifer`> "Nice to meet you too. I suppose I'm not in many realities."
[23:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* X pauses, then draws Lilith and Dias in for a hug. "Lets beat the other you tomorrow. Killing him will fulfill my duty of killing a II."
[23:16] <13@Xanatos> Oh but it takes quite a bit of skill. It helps if you understand mathematics as well. 6He begins to set up the table.
[23:16] <13Chad`Winters> We'll get him back, Cheryl.
[23:16] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> So Chad Winters would like this game.
[23:16] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She sits up. "How do you deal with it?"
15[23:16] * 13@Jennifer` bows a little. "In this one I died before I was born, and it was a pretty big event that happened, the thing that killed me anyways."
[23:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> I've seen you once or twice, but not often
[23:17] <13Chad`Winters> I used to pop pain pills.
[23:17] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Nice. That's what Warren did. 6* She finishes another bottle and grabs a new one'
[23:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves down a hallway, going to find SPoC.
09[23:17] <13@Jennifer`> "In my reality you were kinda the leader of a rebellion against Cran."
[23:17] <13Chad`Winters> It's not easy, Cheryl. I still can't deal with it properly.
[23:18] <13@Xanatos> Oh yeah. So you set up these colored balls like this. 6He motion and then moves to place the cue ball at the end, then grabs a stick. 1The object is to use the white ball there to knock the colored ones into the slots...6He beings, explaining the rules of the game.
[23:18] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh.
[23:18] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> What do I use to hit them?
09[23:18] <13@Jennifer`> "As much as you, Kaine, Zephyr and Angela could make up a rebellion. We kinda helped it work though."
[23:18] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias acks as he's pulled into a hug. 1"If it comes down to having to kill him, I'll let you take the final blow.
[23:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* John listens, staring at her chest.
[23:19] <13Chad`Winters> Hell, my psychologist wants me on anti-depressants.
[23:19] <13@Xanatos> This. 6He holds up the pool stick. 1Want to give it a try?
[23:19] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She downs more alcohol. Her way of dealing with pain. Chii could feel the old Cheryl is back in her now - the one without hope. Anger. Bitter.
[23:19] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC finishes putting her rifle together in the armory.
[23:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods a few times, then takes the stick. She swings it out like a baseball, hitting the white ball into the others.
15[23:19] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a bit, but apparently is used to this already. "You kinda had a way of giving me hope back there. You were the guy that everyone looked to in this reality too."
[23:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks in, and waves at SPoC. "Hey, Nat. Having fun?"
[23:20] <13Chad`Winters> But I find telling myself, that everything will be ok in the end. Even if it means lieing to myself.
[23:20] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'm not a guy you want to look to.
09[23:20] <13@Jennifer`> "That's why it's strange."
[23:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're good at lying. 6* She half-jokes.
15[23:20] * 13@Xanatos pauses and puts a hand to his face. 1Here let me demonstrate. Good try though. 6He moves set them up again and takes the stick, shooting the proper way.
15[23:20] * 13Chad`Winters snorts, laughing slightly. 1"Sometimes you have to convince yourself there's good beyond the horizon.
[23:21] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I did not do well?
[23:21] <13@Kit> 6Chii makes it onto the roof and slowly moves over to Cheryl and Chad, silently.
[23:21] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...
[23:21] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I find that it helps me focus before a big mission. So yes, I am having fun.
[23:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs a bit
15[23:21] * 13@Jennifer` toys with her gloved hand a little, "I really kinda look up to Dias, well, our Dias, so I can sympahtize on the hero worship."
[23:21] <13@Xanatos> You had the right idea, but that's not how people shoot pool. This way is. 6He takes another shot.
[23:21] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Say, want to have a sleep over in your room? I don't really have a room and I don't want to sleep in a guest room.
[23:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches. "My way was easier."
09[23:22] <13@Jennifer`> "But I look up to him because I can depend on him. He's the sorta guy who would do anything to save another."
[23:22] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC tilts her head slightly at Zephyr than nods. 1"Yes, I would like that."
[23:22] <13@Kit> <Chii> He was definitely raised by Dias." 6She mumbles.
[23:22] <13@DeathStar> <John> He seems to be a good guy.
[23:22] <13@Xanatos> Yeah but your way doesn't really have the style, or finesse. This is a game of skill, not brute force.
[23:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smiles a bit, then grabs SPoC's hand, moving for her room
15[23:22] * 13@Jennifer` grins. "Superhero, by his definition, but he lives up to it."
[23:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
[23:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers at Chii, then looks away, as if not able to look at her - feeling embarrassed and guilty for looking like she's about to fall apart. "Lemon doing okay?"
15[23:23] * 13Chad`Winters glances at Chii than looks at Cheryl. 1"You got a lot of people who care about you Cheryl. And they'll do anything to help you see that good over the horizon."
15[23:23] * 13@Xanatos holds out the stick again. 1Want me to guide you through this one?
09[23:23] <13@Jennifer`> "More importantly... he makes Ben happy. That means a lot to me."
[23:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC acks slightly as shes pulled along
[23:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis thinks, then takes a stick and mimics Xanatos' aim.
[23:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods a few times.
[23:24] <13@Xanatos> Hmmm. Good form. 6He notes, tilting his head to glance at her ass.
[23:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers slowly toward Xanatos, then peers at his ass.
[23:24] <13@Kit> 6Chii jerks, pausing. 1"I-- I didn't... check on her." 6Now she looks embarassed and guilty.
15[23:24] * 13@Jennifer` leans against the hallway wall. "You really should eat. The world isn't over yet."
[23:24] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias rubs the back of his head, laughing sligthly. 1"I feel like I can take on anything."
[23:24] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh.
15[23:24] * 13@Xanatos pauses and glances at her. 1Uh.
[23:24] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> Looking at the ass is not part of the game?
[23:24] <13@DeathStar> <X> We will defeat the other you soundly.
[23:25] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods. 1"You're right. We will."
[23:25] <13@Kit> 6Lilith nods. 1"We will."
[23:25] <13@DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
[23:25] <13@DeathStar> Song 23: Rise Again
[23:25] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: 10-590.4.17
[23:25] <13@DeathStar> Location: Hanger
[23:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is in her tactical suit, her hair in a ponytail, a cold look on her face.
[23:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien checks his sword silently, and Erevis stands to the side, arms crossed, her hair in a bun
[23:26] <13@Kit> 6Chii has opted for her tactical suit-- in adult form, with her ninja outfit over it.
[23:26] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps out, wearing the tattered brown headband, his fighting gloves, jeans and a sleeveless shirt
15[23:26] * 13@Jennifer` shows up in a trainee outfit, looking like she wants to come along, though not expecting to.
[23:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* John steps into the hanger bay. He's wearing normal clothing, Cheryl not giving him a tactical suit.
[23:27] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps out, wearing her tact suit with her assault rifle across her back.
15[23:27] * 13@Xanatos whistles, sitting at the base of a shuttle.
[23:27] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright, those of you in the back up group, you'll take the shuttle and support from a distance. If I call you to come directly into the battle, do it.
[23:27] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> The rest of us will use the van.
15[23:27] * 13Chad`Winters crosses his arms. 1"Understood."
[23:27] <13@Xanatos> I don't get the fly the shuttle?
[23:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, moving for the hanger. Erevis bows once, then moves to it.
[23:27] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Unless you want to be back up, no.
15[23:28] * 13@Jennifer` steps up. "Can I join?"
15[23:28] * 13@Xanatos stands up and moves towards the van.
[23:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves for the van now. Katrina and X get into the van as well. John moves for it, hadsn in his pocket.
[23:28] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> The man almost killed you. I can't see that changing
15[23:28] * 13Chad`Winters moves up the ramp of the shuttle and takes the pilots eat
[23:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hops into the shuttle, planning to snipe.
[23:28] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus gets into the van, getting in. 1He'll almost kill all of us.
[23:28] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I would recommend that you stay here, Jennifer. It is very dangerous.
[23:29] <13@Kit> <Chii> You ...delayed him. Good job, Jen. Stay out of this.
[23:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves towards the van and hops in, taking hte passenger seat.
[23:29] <13@Kit> 6Chii sets her clips in her pistols, holstering them.
[23:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets into the driver seat.
15[23:29] * 13@Jennifer` looks at them and sighs a little. "...Alright..."
[23:29] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek steps into the hanger, having been around relaxing, he moves to walk up the ramp of the shuttle after Zephyr.
[23:29] <13@Kit> <Chii> Fix that fucking gun I gave you from your father.
09[23:29] <13@Jennifer`> "I will... you sure I can't come?"
[23:29] <13@Kit> 6Chii ties her hair, mid-length by now, back with her old ribbon and moves for the van.
[23:30] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You want to come, your decision. You die, your fault.
[23:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC eyes Cheryl than looks at Jennifer. She turns and moves to the van, getting in the back
15[23:30] * 13Chad`Winters preps the shuttle and powers it up
09[23:30] <13@Jennifer`> "Tell yah what... I'll go with the backup."
[23:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leans back in a seat.
[23:30] <13@Kit> <Chii> Whatever.
[23:30] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Wise. 6* She begins to drive off.
[23:30] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Can't believe you almost let me oversleep, luv. 6He notes, sitting down.
15[23:30] * 13@Jennifer` heads for the shuttle.
[23:31] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I thought you were going to protect the base since you were not around
[23:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at Cheryl. 1"I won't stop until the last breath."
[23:31] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I won't stop for that. Until this fucker is dead.
[23:31] <13@Kit> <Chii> Don't get to that point, either of you. Baka.
[23:31] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek rubs his chin. 1Well I would, but there's not really anyone to protect here now, is there?
[23:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon sheds a tear
15[23:31] * 13@Jennifer` gets aboard and takes a seat.
[23:32] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias smirks
[23:32] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe the one called Raquel and Caduceus is behind
15[23:32] * 13Chad`Winters lifts the shuttle off the ground. 1"Everyone in?
[23:32] <13@DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
[23:32] <13@DeathStar> Location: The "Spot"
[23:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* They drive up. In the background, Ben can be seen in some sort of round barrier. The man in the white armor stands there, waiting.
[23:33] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias opens the door and hops out.
[23:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets out, as does Katrina and X. John steps out.
[23:34] <13@DeathStar> <John> Dias. Please stop this. 6* He approaches the man. "Lets try to save the multiverse and our reality another way. Who says we have to do it like this ? Maybe we can borrow the crystals?"
15[23:34] * 13@Xanatos and Marcus get out of the van, both of them checking their supplies.
[23:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC hops out after John
[23:34] <13@Kit> 6Chii steps out with Cheryl.
04[23:35] -eri- [paradox notice] Hey all, I'm gonna reroute paradox for better connectivity. There will be a very brief net split while this occurs. Apologies in advance!
[23:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* The man peers toward John, his expression unseen with the mask. He blurs, and suddenly his stomach is through John's gut. John coughs up blood, his eyes widening in surprise and sock. <Alternate Dias> Pathetic. You should have died fighting them
[23:35] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide. 1"You son of a bitch."
[23:35] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate Dias> Listen. If you stop me from getting the crystal, I will injure the boy.
13[23:35] * These users have been split from #taw: Chad`Winters, Xanatos - check netsplits window for details!
03[23:35] * dream.esper.net sets mode: +o Xanatos
[23:35] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate Dias> Listen. If you stop me from getting the crystal, I will injure the boy.
13[23:36] * These users have rejoined #taw: Chad`Winters, Xanatos - check netsplits window for details!
[23:36] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias tenses, eyeing Dias now. 1"Let's not be hasty."
[23:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina jerks. "JOHN!" 6* She shouts as the man falls to the ground. She slides over and grabs him, pulling him away. "God, we need a medic now."
[23:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John holds his stomach, groaning in agony
[23:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias holds out his hand and the ground begins to shake. He's not waiting.
[23:36] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus moves to slide up to by her, glances up. 1X, come help us.
[23:36] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're a piece of shit.
[23:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fight me for it.
[23:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves over and peers down. "I can't heal a wound like this."
[23:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* He doesn't budge, continuing to do what he's doing.
[23:37] <13@Xanatos> Just stabalize it. That's all.
[23:37] <13@Kit> 6Chii narrows her eyes at Alternate Dias. 1"He idolizes you. You don't give him one ounce of respect?"
[23:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Cheryl....
[23:37] <13@Xanatos> NRP: Marcis*
[23:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl activates her whip. "We have to kill him now. Countless lives are n the line." 6* Her voice is straine, knowing what that means
[23:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers down. "If I do that, I'll be out of energy and unable to fight."
[23:38] <13@DeathStar> Song 24: Round 2 Begins
[23:38] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're a weakling. A weak, pathetic, ignorant fool.
[23:38] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You sure about this?
[23:38] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Save a life, or destroy one. It's your choice.
[23:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes.
[23:38] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias closes his eyes. 1"Than I'll take the blame for it."
[23:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X frowns, then kneels, using her own life energy to repair John's wound. He tries to tell her to sotp, but can't.
[23:38] <13@Kit> 6Chii grinds her teeth, her hands clenching, drawing blood from her palms. 1"A worthless piece of shit that doesn't deserve to exist."
[23:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rushes in at the alternate Dias, throwing a coiled whip punch at him. He stops focusing on getting the crystal for now, though the ground doesn't stop shaking, just slower now. He punches his fist into Cheryl's gut, breaking her tactical suit.
[23:39] <13@Kit> <Chii> You should just disappear...
[23:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias opens his eyes and breaks off into a dash at Alt Dias
[23:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* He blurs as he begins to beat the shit out of Cheryl, his punches barely seen. Bruises form on her body with every hit
[23:39] <13@Kit> <Chii> A world like yours-- something that brought something like you...
15[23:39] * 13@Xanatos kneels and breaks into a dash, slipping out his beam sabers.
[23:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina keeps pressure on John as X works.
[23:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias growls and he pushes himself further.
[23:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias stops right as Dias comes in range, throwing Cheryl ta him.
[23:40] <13@Kit> 6Chii laughs slightly. 1"Should just... disappear!"
[23:40] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> Don't kill yourself, just stabalize him. After that, you can take my energy and fight. Alright?
[23:40] <13@DeathStar> <Ben> MOMMA! 6* He wails out at Chii and Cheryl.
[23:40] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shifts slightly, grabbing Cheryl as he comes by and spins with her to slow her down.
[23:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* X doesn't respond, probably too focused.
[23:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl groans now.
[23:40] <13@Kit> 6Chii runs right past Dias, screaming at the alternate Dias somewhere between asburdly out of her mind and pissed off as usual.
[23:41] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias sets her down and he dashes in at Chii, moving in behind Chii
[23:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ben cries now, screaming out Chii Momma over and over.
[23:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias waits for them.
[23:41] <13@DeathStar> Song 25: D&D
[23:41] <13@Kit> 6Chii slides to a halt out of true melee range, swiping her hands across her front-- doing nothing but splattering her blood at him.
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Alternate Dias leaps to the side to avoid it, then dashes in at Dias, bringing his knee up for Dias' chin
[23:42] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias dashes in past Chii and kicks off, throwign a spinning kicking at Alt Dias as his knee comes flying in
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate Dias> You are nothing compared to me. A pale comparison.
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* His knee hits his leg, snapping the bone. But he doesn't get his chin. He slides past Dias.
[23:43] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias howls out in pain as he lands on his good leg, clearly favoring it now.
[23:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias turns around and throws a kick for his spine
[23:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* X finishes healing JOhn as best she can, then falls over, unconscious.
15[23:44] * 13@Xanatos comes in with a shoulder ram for Alt. Dias as he goes to kick.
[23:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien targets Alternate Dias with missiles and energy weapons. Zephyr is on the roof, her dragoon bustah formed.
[23:44] <13@Kit> 6Chii keeps moving forward-- the alternate dodged her and thus she would have set blood across the barrier around Ben. She eyes it, then brings up her hands, reaching out to touch her palms to it at the center of her 'X' in blood.
[23:44] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins turning and gets kicking the side, causing him to hit the ground and slide across it
15[23:44] * 13@Xanatos peers at her and frowns. 1Kat, is he..?
[23:45] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek stands beside Zephyr, finger aimed.
[23:45] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> He's stabilized. Just unconscious from the pain.
[23:45] <13@Kit> 6Lilith steps afront X, holding her lance of light and in light armor.
[23:45] <13Chad`Winters> I'll keep us as steady as possible.
[23:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is rammed back. Everyone's comms beep, indicating back up unit is about to fire
[23:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias grabs his side with his left hand, his face red from the pain.
[23:45] <13@Xanatos> 6* Jumps back and starts firing with his pistols toward's Alt. Dias.
[23:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* If Chii messes with the barrier, she'd feel a pain course through her unlike anything she's felt before. The barrier seems to be as stronger than a Dark One
[23:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien begins to fire weapons, and Zephyr unleashes her beam weapon.
[23:46] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods once and shifts over to peer at X. 1Alright. I'm not going to enjoy this, so don't be mad. 6He peers down at her. 1I think this'll work anyway. 6He shifts to lift up X and bring her lips to his.
[23:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets to her feet, sneering.
[23:46] <13@Kit> 6Chii falls back, howling loudly-- even as her blood boils like acid where it fell.
[23:46] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek fires two beams, one from each finger.
[23:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the incoming attacks and quickly covers his head with his hands
[23:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias looks up as all the blasts begin to slam into him. His helmet shatters, and Dias' face is shown finally - an ugly carve on the left side of his face.
[23:47] <13@DeathStar> Song 26: Round 2 Continues
15[23:47] * 13@Jennifer` lets out a whistle as she watches the blast. "Think we got him?"
[23:47] <13Chad`Winters> His attention for sure.
[23:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* The rest of the armor is damaged, but he seems unhurt. He eyes the shuttle, then raises his fist, closing it. The shuttle begins to get crunched in.
09[23:48] <13@Jennifer`> "That's not anywhere near as good."
[23:48] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Didn't do more than nick his pride, I'd say.
[23:48] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> D-Dammit. 6* The controls begin to wail.
15[23:48] * 13Chad`Winters tries to pull them away.
[23:48] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes himself up, coughing out blood.
15[23:48] * 13@Xanatos pulls out a disc and throws it for Alt. Dias.
[23:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stumbles as the shuttle is crunched inward. The controls barely respond to Darien and begins to go down
[23:48] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Oh bloody hell. That's not good.
[23:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves over to check on Chii, offering her what she can in the bond for the pain. She rushes in at A.Dias. The ground still is shaking
09[23:49] <13@Jennifer`> "Go with the backup I said..."
[23:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* The alternate Dias dashes to the right of the disc.
[23:49] <13@Kit> 6Chii crawls to her feet, blood dripping from her hands. She narrows her eyes at the barrier, then turns, eyeing the alternate Dias, her hands clenching, the blood forming into blades like her swords. She charges with Cheryl.
[23:49] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins taking deep breathes as he turns to focus back on Alt. Dias
[23:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis psionically uses a shield to stop the crunching, giving Chad time to land elsewhere
[23:49] <13@Xanatos> 6* It sparks pathetically when it lands on the ground.
[23:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* X stirs as she's kissed, her cheeks bushing. She opens her eyes
[23:49] <13Chad`Winters> Everyone out. 6He moves to the back and hits the ramp lower button.
[23:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis focuses on her shield, unable to move for now. Zephyr hops off, and Darien rushes for the ramp.
15[23:50] * 13Chad`Winters moves down the ramp quikly
[23:50] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek stands beside Erevis, putting an arm around her waist. 1You ready, Revi?
[23:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias eyes those near John, then rushes in at them. Katrina stands in the way to protect Marcus.
15[23:50] * 13@Jennifer` moves out fast after Chad.
[23:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis manages a single nod.
[23:50] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek tenses and pulls her quickly, dashing to leap out of the shuttle.
[23:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* The shuttle gets crushed into a tin can
[23:51] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus pulls back, looking weak. 1Now..you can..fight.
[23:51] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias takes a deep breathe again, letting it out.
[23:51] <13@Kit> 6Chii goes to cleave at Alternate Dias with the blood blades as he tries to run off.
[23:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias throws a punch at Katrina, who dodges, then activates her sword, attacking him over and over, slashing his arms and elgs, chest, arm. However, he rears back and punches her in the chest, causing her to collapse with wide eyes. However, this means he doesn't dodge, and his armor is cut into
[23:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl comes in after Chii, swinging her whip into the back of his head.
[23:52] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias starts moving towards Alt. Dias and the others, hopping at first.
[23:52] <13@Kit> 6Lilith moves aside Katrina, lifting her lance, and slashes viciously as Katrina falls, trying not to give him chance to attack her further.
[23:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods once, then turns to see Alternate Dias is right there.
[23:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is slashed by Lilith, and hit in the head. He sneers with a hatred unmatched by any they've faced before. He begins to focus on making her lance crush in on itself.
[23:53] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate Dias> I warned you all. Now suffer the price of fucking with me
[23:53] <13@Kit> 6Chii lays into him as she feels contact-- in a frenzy. Lilith pauses as the lance is affected in such a way, her eyes widening. She reaches into her chest and slowly pulls out the hilt of her nodachi in desperation.
[23:53] <13@DeathStar> Song 27: The Price.
[23:54] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus widens his eyes and moves over to Kat, by crawling, he reaches over towards her to check on her.
[23:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias twists and hits CHii in the gut, sending her flying back, then lifts a hand, making Ben fly up in the air.
[23:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina's heart seems to be not beating.
[23:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide and he jerks to look back at Ben. 1"NO!"
[23:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns to eye Ben going up in the air. "Ben!!!"
[23:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* A blue sphere forms around Ben and he vanishes, probably sent to another reality.
[23:54] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
[23:54] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus widens his eyes. 1Oh god...OH GOD. 6He sits up quickly and begins to give Kat CPR.
[23:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl collapses to her knees.
[23:55] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide, and he starts growling.
[23:55] <13@Kit> 6Chii hacks, losing her breath for a moment and fighting the urge to hurl. When she hears Ben's name she slams her hand into the ground, furthering the injured hand and gets up, veering over eerily to stand upright, locking her eyes on the alternate.
[23:55] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Ah fuck. 6He notes, kneeling on the edge fo the roof, trying to get a clear shot.
[23:55] <13Chad`Winters> This is bad.
[23:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* The ground begins to shake harder now, more focus on the crystal now it seems. Darien nods at Chad. <Zephyr> Oh, God...Ben...
[23:56] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr aims with another dragoon bustah, and Erevis frowns, peering to the side
[23:56] <13@Kit> 6Lilith finishes yanking out the sword, using the signature move to try and free herself if anything from Alt Dias' grasp. 1"Tsubame Gaeshi..." 6She slashes three in succession-- the lance her focus."
15[23:56] * 13@Jennifer` just stares into the distance in disbelief. "No... no this isn't... Ben..."
[23:56] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slams his fist into the ground.
[23:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the ground, then begins to twitch. She's doing something she hasn't done in a long time -- she's clearly going berserk. Chii can feel insanity creeping through the bond.
[23:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias holds up his arm as the slashes hit, his armor damaged somewhat
15[23:56] * 13@Xanatos moves to Kat and Marcus and pulls otu a disc, placing it on her chest, he adjust something. 1Cross your fingers. 6It woudl spark and send a condensed shock for Kat's heart, trying to jumpstart it.
15[23:56] * 13@Jennifer` falls to her knees, shaking. "Bro..."
[23:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina jerks from the shock, and she lets out a gasp.
[23:57] <13@DeathStar> Song 28: Berserker
[23:57] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pulls his bloodied fist up and he starts running at Alt. Dias.
[23:57] <13@Kit> 6Chii holds her other hand to her face, not caring about the blood smeared, starting to laugh.
[23:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rises to her feet, turning toward Alternate Dias, the insane look on her face. She charges at him with an insane roar.
[23:57] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus lets out a sigh of relief, pulling Kat into his arms.
[23:57] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> Cheryl has lost her mind. We need to reign in her. It would be best to get Chii to calm her down
[23:57] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hee... hee--he-heh! Heh heh!!
[23:57] <13Chad`Winters> That won't be easy. Chii'll be insane herself.
[23:57] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Doesn't look like she'll be much help, luv.
15[23:58] * 13@Xanatos nods once and pulls the disc off of her, tossing it aside. He stands and turns to eye the scene, frowning.
[23:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets in Dias' path, swinging fist after fist at Alternate Dias, who dodges. She leaps ta him, and begins to bite into his throat.
[23:58] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She closes her eyes psionically grasping Chii's mind, trying to calm her down. <Cheryl needs your assistance, Chii.?
[23:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* X gets a holy arrow ready
[23:58] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stumbles slightly from Cheryl cutting him off and he slides to a stop.
[23:58] <13@Kit> 6Lilith yanks her lance free and retreats with one of the weapons in either hand, sulking to X with a whimper.
[23:58] <13@DeathStar> <X> Remember. I believe in you, Lilith.
15[23:59] * 13@Jennifer` just starts to cry quietly, looking down.
[23:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rips his flesh off and begins to pound into his face over and over with her fists, splattering blood on herself. She laughs out an insane laugh
[23:59] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Need to calm down...6He begins taking deep breathes.
[23:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* John gets to his feet weakly, standing by Dias. "Think we...can take him?"
13[00:00] * Day changed to Saturday, November 8th 2008.
Session Time: Sat Nov 08 00:00:01 2008
[00:00] <13@Kit> <Chii> Heheh!!" 6She grins, lifting her chin and smiling on the sight with glee. <Does she..? Heh...! She looks fine, to me..>
[00:00] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> <When you give into rage, you will leave yourself vulnerable. She is not defending herself, Chii.>
[00:00] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at John. 1"Yeah, I just...I just need to clear my head."
[00:00] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody hell I could pierce the gits skull if she'd just move.
[00:00] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ...Soul weapon... the meaning is literal..." 6She gasps.
[00:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias twists and slams his fist up into her gut, then her face, breaking her nose. He shifts and brings his leg around to hit her in the throat.
[00:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* X pauses, the arrow vanishing. "What can I do to help you?!"
[00:01] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes the scene, twitching. 1"God damnt."
[00:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias rises, then begins to slam his fists into her over and over, but Cheryl snarls, not blocking, and swings her own fists back at him.
[00:01] <13@Kit> 6Chii winces slightly, then springs forward-- running and moving like she's possessed for Cheryl and the alternate.
[00:01] <13@DeathStar> <John> He's...stronger than anyone I've met.
[00:01] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I don't care how strong he is. He's just another wall that I'll punch through.
[00:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr fires a dragoon bustah at Alternate Disa, hitting him in the back and cracking his armor. He pauses in his beatings for a moment; Zephyr pants and falls back
[00:02] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Think I'm still tired...from having the virus
15[00:02] * 13Chad`Winters shifts, grabing Zephyr as she falls back
15[00:02] * 13@Xanatos begins to advance forward. 1Hmmm. 6He eyes his remaining discs and then pulls up his pistols.
[00:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I have something he doesn't.
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl begins to slam her fists int ohis face again and again, but Alternate Dias grabs both of her fists
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah? What's that?
[00:03] <13@Kit> 6Chii lunges at him when he pauses, her fingers laced with her blood in the strange pseudo-solid form, giggling. 1<Beautiful...>
[00:03] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> You did good luv. Just take it easy from here on.
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps working to keep Chii's mind calm, using all her energy to do so. She also sends out a mental plea for Freyja, if she's out there.
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy stands on a roof top nearby, watching the fight, a hand over her face.
[00:03] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> The strongest heart. 6He lets out antoher breath and tests his leg.
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> 6*X tries to give Lilith energy to fix her weapon, paniced.
[00:03] <13@DeathStar> <John> He likes ripping out hearts.
[00:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias eyes Chii coming in
[00:04] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah? ...That's good to know. 6He starts bouncing in place and grabs his shirt, ripping it off.
[00:05] <13@Kit> 6Chii eyes him like a savage animal-- but at the same time, despite being open, anyone experienced wouldn't feel like she's leaving herself open at all, like she's actively studying him. 1<....>
[00:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien watches the fight. Not really able to do much. He motions at X3. "Take type cast notes."
[00:05] <13@Kit> 6Freyja drops beside Erevis, panting a moment. 1"..."
[00:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias shifts Cheryl into Chii's path; Cheryl snarls.
[00:05] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> Freyja. I am glad you are here.
[00:05] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I am worried about Alpha Cheryl's mental state.
[00:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy blinks at Freyja's appearance, peering to the side.
[00:05] <13@Kit> <Freyja> ..." 6She peers upward at the scene. 1"...Blood.."
[00:06] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Now I just need to wait for the my chance.
15[00:06] * 13@Jennifer` slumps over a bit, staring at the ground.
[00:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy shadowports behind Alternate Dias, then begins all her energy into a singularity beam in her hands, then fires it straight into Alternate Dias' back, engulfing him. He lets Cheryl go as he's swallowed by an attack so dark, it might be a black hole.
[00:06] <13@DeathStar> End Song
[00:06] <13@Kit> 6Chii shifts herself around, her back landing against Cheryl's and she kicks the ground, sending herself right over Cheryl in a somersault, her head twisting to keep her eyes on Alt Dias, her hands the closest thing, wreathed in the wretched technique, clawing at his face, only to blink and twist herself to the side, landing and sliding.
03[00:07] * Xan|Gone (jbobo@h174.247.90.75.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) has joined #taw
14[00:07] * Xanatos (jbobo@h174.247.90.75.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias howls as he's engulfed, and suddenly a black hole forms where he was at.
[00:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns and begins to rush the black hole.
03[00:07] * Xan|Gone is now known as Xanatos
[00:07] <13@Kit> 6Chii leaps right forward and punches directly at Cheryl's jaw.
[00:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy steps back, looking worn out. Her form flickers a bit like she might become 5 years old.
[00:07] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Cheryl...Shit.
03[00:07] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Xanatos
[00:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is hit in the jaw, and stumbles. She snarls at Chii.
[00:08] <13@Kit> 6Chii lands and sweeps Cheryl, then grabs for one of her feet, using the possessed-state strength to simply try and hurtle her away from the epicenter.
[00:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is hurled away, hitting the ground with a bounce. Suddenly, a hand rips out of the black hole, and clenches, making the black hole vanish. Alternate Dias stands there with no armor on his top half now, and the ground still shaking
[00:09] <13@DeathStar> Song 29: Final Fight
[00:09] <13@Kit> 6Freyja takes a breath, her eyes twitching some, then she puts a hand to her chest, appearing behind Billy, she wraps her arms around her. 1"..."
[00:09] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> My turn. 6He kicks off, moving in at Alt. Dias as fast as hecan
[00:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy peers at Freyja tiredly. "Why? You don't like me..."
[00:10] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I merely felt like you did not believe in me.
[00:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* John moves in after Dias, a bit faster than him, but slowing himself down to match pace with him.
[00:10] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> ... *peers to the side* I thought you didn't believe in me. Like everyone else.
[00:10] <13@Kit> 6Freyja smile slightly, closing her eyes as she brings them to Erevis' side.
[00:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias peers towarad the two coming in
[00:10] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks off low and slams his hands into the ground, shoving himself up into a kick at Alt. Dias's chest
[00:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii leaps atop Cheryl, hissing somewhat as she glares downward, her hands out to pin Cheryl's arms.
[00:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias spins and kicks his foot into Alternate Dias' foot, hurtling him back. John twists, grabbing him, and spins, throwing Dias back at him at a high speed.
[00:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl strains as she's pinned.
[00:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* He kicks off after his Dias ball.
[00:12] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias quickly shifts himself around. 1"MEGATON PUNCH!" 6He swings his left fist in for Alt .Dias' face
15[00:12] * 13@Xanatos still moves about the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity. Marcus still cradles Kat, and Drasek pulls up a finger, tilting his head, squinting one eye closed as he aims.
[00:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is hit in the face, and John moves in low, punching into his stomach. Both blows send him back.
[00:12] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans in and roars back at Cheryl.
[00:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis psionically tries to grab AD.
[00:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snarls at Chii, tears running down her eyes.
[00:12] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lands and grabs John's hand and twists, hurling him towards Alt. Dias.
[00:13] <13@Kit> 6Chii drops her head, forehead to Cheryl's as she closes her eyes, heaving.
[00:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* John goes flying in as Alternate Dias turns. "FLYING JOHN STRIKE!" 6* He smashes his foot into Alternate Dias' jaw.
[00:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stops struggling. She begins to sob.
[00:13] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I failed him. I always fuckin' fail him.
[00:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias spins around and dashes in after John and slides past Alt. Dias. 1"SLIDING ELBOW STRIKE!" 6he twists, slamming his elbow into Alt. Dias' back
[00:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> Can it..." 6She coughs.
[00:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias strains to break free, only to be hit in the back. He wills himself to break Erevis' grip, the feedback causing the girl to scream in pain and fall.
[00:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias twists and punches into John's weakened gut, causing blood to spill out. In the meanwhile, X opens a ripple above AD, and fires a holy arrow down at his head
[00:15] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ... ...Thank you, ...mistress.
[00:15] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias pulls both hands back. 1"HEAD SMASH!" 6He swings both palms in for Alt. Dias' ears
[00:15] <13@DeathStar> <X> We are a team. I will let no thing injure you
[00:15] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Billy. Thank you.
[00:15] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> ...for?
[00:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is hit by the palms, howling out. He elbows back into Dias' chest, injuring his ribs and heart.
[00:16] <13@Kit> 6Freyja shakes her head, holding her hair back, she ripes off the end of her kimono shirt to make a strip and ties her hair back. 1"A lot of things."
[00:16] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate >You ar enothing to me.
[00:16] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide and one again he coughs up fluids as he steps back from the force.
[00:16] <13@DeathStar> <Billy>.. 6* She looks down, unsure how to respond.
[00:16] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek aims now that everyone is clear and fires a beam for Alt Dias' chest, trying to get that damn heart.
[00:16] <13@Kit> 6Freyja smirks at the alternate's words. 1"Let's fix that. After all..."
[00:16] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You...Are nothing but a wall.
[00:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is shot through the chest. He falls backwards, his chest glowing, healed. He flips as he falls to land on his feet
[00:17] <13@DeathStar> <Alternate Dias> You are the wall.
[00:17] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Even I believe in that idiot." 6she holds out her hands, chanting silently as she closes her eyes-- beginning the enchantment to empower Dias with light and strength.
[00:17] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody hell. Git has fancy moves like I do.
[00:17] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Than try me. 6He holds his arms out.
[00:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* John cracks his knuckles. "If I can't stop you, Dias, I'll beat sense into you. I---can't do it your way anymore."
[00:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias dashes in at Dias, bluring. His fist rams into Dias' gut, trying to rip through it.
[00:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays on the ground, twitching in pain.
[00:18] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias begins sliding back as the fist starts to rip in and he snaps his right hand down to grab onto Alt Dias's had. 1"Superhero rule #1"
[00:18] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek pauses and slides up to Erevis, having been focused on the fight. 1Revi, bloody hell are you alright?
[00:18] <13@Kit> <Chii> Heheh... You hear that..? Idiots learn... This is far from the end, Cherry. Ben's ours. We're getting him back-- and nothing's going to get in our way. This reality or the next.
[00:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias keeps pushing forward.
[00:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* John moves in behind AD, and slams his fist into his spine, making his attack slow
15[00:19] * 13@Jennifer` slowly looks up, at the battle, she pulls out a gun and makes her way to the fight.
[00:19] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus looks up, weary and worried. 1Come'on Dias...come'on. 6He mouths.
[00:19] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I'm a little pent up, Billy.
[00:19] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> REALITY...6He continues sliding back as he pulls his left fist back. 1"PIERCING" 6He swings his left fist in, pouring everything into it. !"PUNCH!" 6He aims the fist for Alt. Dias' chest
[00:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't respond. She is holding her stomach as well
[00:20] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> I've emptied my reserves doing that attack
[00:20] <13@Xanatos> 6*Drasek stands up to grab Jennifer and points. 1Fix her.
15[00:20] * 13@Jennifer` blinks, snapping to look at her, slowly staring before registering, she holsters her gun and moves to kneel down beside Erevis.
[00:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias is punched through the chest, and is sent flying back, blood lekaking out. At that moment, the ground stops shaking and a crystal rises. He reaches out weakly and grabs it as he hits the ground
[00:21] <13@DeathStar> <John> No!
[00:21] <13@DeathStar> End Song
[00:21] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias coughs as he falls to one knee, blood pouring from his gut
15[00:21] * 13@Jennifer` wordlessly pulls out a small medikit and starts to work on Erevis' wounds. Her face a little stiff with her grief.
[00:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias rises, and uses his wrist device, vanishing in a blue sphere, retreating.
[00:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* X watches him run. "Coward."
15[00:22] * 13@Xanatos breaks into a dash towards Alt. Dias, sliding to a halt, eyes wide. 1Shit.
[00:22] <13@DeathStar> Song 30 - Sad Endings
[00:22] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Hrmph.
[00:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits up now, holding Chii in a hug, not bothering to stop the tears - not usually one to cry, but she can't stop now.
[00:22] <13@Kit> 6Freyja appears at Erevis' side, grabbing her, she peers at Jennifer, then disappears with Erevis, reappearing near Dias.
15[00:22] * 13Chad`Winters frowns now. 1"This is bad."
[00:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* John watches him go, then hangs his head. Darien nods grimly.
[00:22] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Get the wounded here.
[00:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves Lilith to the injured pile.
[00:23] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus forces himself to his feet, carrying Kat over to the injured pile, sitting down with her.
[00:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias winces as he forces himself to rise. He starts moving to where Alt. Dias disappeared from.
15[00:23] * 13@Jennifer` looks up, a stim still in her hand, having been in the middle of injecting Erevis, she frowns and moves over to Freyja.
[00:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* John walks after Dias, standing there. No imaginary Johns appear this time, apparantly satisfied his legacy has been passed on
[00:24] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias holds his hand out towards the spot, his eyes searching.
[00:24] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans Cheryl onto herself and moves to the others at the center, sighing slightly but trying to smile at Cheryl supportingly.
[00:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl has her eyes closed, not wanting the others to see her like this . She buries her face into Chii's shoulder, peering back at where Ben was at once.
[00:25] <13@Kit> 6Freyja stands back and clasps her hands together, chanting, then spreads them out, looking as if she's singing, but no sound comes out-- merely the slow closure of wounds to those in the immediate proximity.
15[00:25] * 13@Jennifer` makes her way over, taking the time to get more medical supploes out, she stops to watch Freyja work.
[00:25] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I guess this was one wall I couldn't topple over.
[00:26] <13@Xanatos> It's not over Dias. Not yet.
[00:26] <13@DeathStar> <John> Don't say that. I thought superheroes always kept trying, even if they failed at first.
[00:26] <13@Kit> <Lilith> You did as you said-- you punched right through it.
[00:26] <13@Kit> 6Lilith pants a bit even as wounds are being healed. 1"...You merely need to do so again."
[00:26] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at John. 1"So you do learn."
[00:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs. "I guess so. I want my kiss, after all."
[00:27] <13@DeathStar> <John> Plus my reality device is still here. I might can help you all decide what to do next.
[00:27] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias snorts, than winces, falling down to his knees, his hand moving back to his gut
[00:27] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Tch. Moron.." 6She peers away for some reason. 1"...But you chose your path. I heard you."
[00:27] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek makes his way down to ground level, no point on being on a roof anymore.
[00:27] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> .oO (Ben...)
[00:27] <13Chad`Winters> Zephyr, you should get to your sister.
[00:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is sitting there, tired. "I know..." 6* She's trying to stand
09[00:27] <13@Jennifer`> "Decide? What decision? We're going after Ben."
15[00:27] * 13Chad`Winters holds his hand down to her. 1"I'll help you."
[00:27] <13@Kit> 6Freyja continues to silently sing-- healing the area as she does, her eyes closed and looking peaceful.
[00:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gives him a smile, taking his hand. She squeezes it.
[00:28] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[00:28] <13@DeathStar> Location: HQ
[00:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is in her room, holding a photo of Ben, not taking part of the meeting that's going on, with Darien leading it at the moment
[00:28] <13@Kit> 6Chii opts to be with Cheryl-- John'll have to disturb her if he wants that deal done.
[00:29] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> We'll have Alexander's people start to study Alternate John's device, and see how it works, and if we can make more. Since our current mode of reality traveling is one way and glitchy. This isn't something we can do right away - also, if John is right, we have to get our crystal back before a few thousand years pass
[00:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits at the table, looking weary from dying briefly. X eyes the table, thinking hard, and John is in a chair
[00:29] <13@Xanatos> With the way time flows, who knows how long that'll really be.
[00:29] <13Chad`Winters> Luckily we have time on our side.
[00:29] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I was a shitty mother. Dias was better with my kid than I was.
[00:29] <13@Kit> <Chii> ... Don't say that..
[00:30] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus sits beside Kat, leaning against the table, still looking tired and in need of some rest.
15[00:30] * 13@Jennifer` sits in the meeting, her resolve very clear. "We'll get him back..."
[00:30] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> That's a point. We'll probably going to have to use this unit and make it one that goes after the crystals and Ben. Which means whoever signs up, will probably never come back in our lifetime.
[00:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sniffles a bit. "It's true."
[00:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias sits in teh back, his gut wraped up.
[00:30] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're not a soccer mom, that's for sure...
[00:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah. As much as it sucks, you all need to get the crystals before they do. So you should visit as many realities as you can
[00:31] <13@Xanatos> That's a big commitment, for anyone.
09[00:31] <13@Jennifer`> "I'll do it."
[00:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina peers at Marcus, probably wondering if he'll jump at the mission
[00:31] <13@Kit> 6Chii hangs her head, peering at the ground. 1"But I could feel it all. You love him."
[00:31] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> I won't be leading the unit, obviously. Cheryl will probably be the one.
[00:31] <13Chad`Winters> The one thing to that is the more we collect, is that many that they don't have and eventually they'll have to come to us to get.
09[00:31] <13@Jennifer`> "Or we go to them."
[00:31] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ...Will that not mean we would be killing other realities?
[00:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl wipes at her face. "Not always. I use to resent him. This child I didn't want. That I thought I would die on. Didn't want to love him, because it would hurt. It would make me weak."
[00:31] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus reaches out to place his hand on Kat's, not saying a word.
[00:32] <13@Kit> <Chii> Everyone can learn.
[00:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> Not right away. It'll take time. But if you take the reality crystal, you probably can bring back that reality back later if it takes too long.
[00:32] <13@Xanatos> In theory.
[00:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> The fact is Dias won't stop getting them, and you can't be everywhere at once.
[00:32] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Probably..
09[00:32] <13@Jennifer`> "We need to try."
[00:32] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well I've never left a wall standing that I couldn't knock down so you can pretty much count me in.
[00:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl buries her face into Chii's chest. "What am I going to do?"
[00:33] <13@Kit> <Chii> What we're best at.
[00:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. "Well, this will take time. After all, we got to figure out how this works. So you got some time to decide if you'll follow Cheryl after these guys."
[00:33] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Just know it's probably a one way trip.
[00:33] <13@Xanatos> I'll see how things go. No point into jumping into a decision.
[00:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien says that for Chad, since he has Aya.
15[00:33] * 13@Jennifer` nods a little, "...Don't need time... I'm enlisting as soon as I'm allowed."
[00:34] <13@Kit> 6Freyja sits on the roof, after tending to anything not healed by the 'song.' She sighs, having not been able to resurrect Pope or perform any such miracles.
[00:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy sits by Freyja
[00:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC listens quietly
15[00:34] * 13Chad`Winters grunts, crossing his arms now
[00:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien gets to his feet. "I'm going back home. You might all need to give Cheryl time before she issues more orders."
[00:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sniffles, then leans up to kiss Chii on the lips, a sudden need to feel something to stop the pain in heart.
[00:34] <13@Xanatos> So who will lead the unit until then?
[00:35] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> No one. I'm sure you can all go a few days without fighting someone
[00:35] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Cheryl's a survivor. She'll bounce back.
[00:35] <13@Kit> 6Chii closes her eyes, returning the kiss gladly if it'll help.
[00:35] <13@Xanatos> /me nods once.
[00:35] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr steps in, leaning n the wall. "Darien's right."
15[00:35] * 13@Xanatos nods once. Agreeing with that. 1I could use some rest.
[00:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pulls back. "Sorry." 6* She probably doesn't think Chii wants to make out right now
[00:35] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I don't know if I can make it a few days without punching someone.
[00:35] <13@Kit> <Chii> Don't apologise.
[00:35] <13@DeathStar> <X> You can punch John.
[00:36] <13@Kit> <Lilith> He is very resilient.
[00:36] <13@Xanatos> <Marcus> I think i'm going to go to bed. No offense X, but your kisses are deadly.
[00:36] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes her hand. "I was thinking how nice it would be to get married, have a house, maybe a pet, live the normal life. Now I can't have any of it."
[00:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John reels.
[00:36] <13@DeathStar> <John> Mental note, don't kiss the purple haired one
[00:36] <13@Kit> <Chii> Can it.
[00:36] <13@DeathStar> <X> Then you shouldn't kiss me.
[00:36] <13@Kit> 6Chii hrmphs. 1"Like I said, we'll do what we're best at."
[00:36] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well as long as John can show me how to become as fast and as strong as him, he can stay here as long as he wants
[00:36] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus smiles. 1You wanted to fight. I couldn't keep that from you. 6He weakly pushes himself to his feet.
[00:36] <13@Kit> <Chii> We're the most stubborn two people in the multiverse.
[00:37] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Probably.
[00:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ....No not John...How 'bout Snipe?
[00:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> You'll need to undergo training under me.
[00:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Dias. "Snipe? I don't use a gun."
[00:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Fists?
[00:37] <13@Kit> 6Chii eyes Cheryl. 1"We'll just fight tooth and nail until we get what we want. We'll make it happen. We'll take it all back."
15[00:37] * 13@Jennifer` looks around at John.
[00:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> Snipe sounds better.
[00:37] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Would you have married me if things hadn't gone to hell? 6* She notes idlely.
[00:38] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It fits. 6He notes
[00:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina gets up and helps Marcus out the door, despite being the one who died.
09[00:38] <13@Jennifer`> "Snipe, would you train me too?"
[00:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy looks at Freyja. "You goin' join them when they leave this reality?"
[00:39] <13@Xanatos> 6* Marcus helps her help him, glad to feel her touch.
[00:39] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I am sure I would be of benefit to them if I did.
[00:39] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> ...
[00:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy peers out
[00:39] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Do you think I'm evil?
[00:39] <13@Kit> 6Freyja eyes Billy.
[00:39] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I became evil.
[00:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl lays back on her bed.
[00:39] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> ...
[00:40] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands up now, resting his hand on the back of his neck. 1"Well I think we all deserve a good rest and celebreation.
[00:40] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> You're not evil
[00:40] <13@Kit> 6Freyja nods once. 1"But I really just gave in to all the darkness in my heart. I don't think any one person is born good or evil."
15[00:40] * 13@Xanatos sits there with his arms crossed. 1Oh the bonds. 6He notes, standing up. Then moves for the door.
[00:40] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I think we become that which we want to become.
15[00:40] * 13@Jennifer` looks at John more.
[00:40] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I don't suppose I can be your pet tonight? 6* She asks softly, wanting to be submissive tonight, for some reason
[00:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rises, rubbing his stomach. He peers at Jennifer.
[00:41] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks. 1"...Wow."
[00:41] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> I see. 6* She gets to her feet, as if getting ready to shadowport.
[00:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers to the side.
[00:41] <13@Xanatos> She's underage. 6He says when he steps past John.
[00:41] <13@DeathStar> <John> Huh?
09[00:42] <13@Jennifer`> "I was asking if you'd train me."
[00:42] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns and moves out, ruffling Zephyr's hair as he moves past her
[00:42] <13@Xanatos> Nothing. It doesn't even matter these days. 6He mumbles, stepping out.
[00:42] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I want to be there-- to support those I care about. My place is here. With Erevis and Billy.
[00:42] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I want to become worthy of the light I hold.
[00:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> You want to be trained? 6* He rubs the back of his head. "I guess I can train you along with Dias."
09[00:42] <13@Jennifer`> "I'd appreciate it."
[00:42] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Funny, I want to become worthy of the dark I hold.
15[00:42] * 13@Jennifer` smiles at him.
[00:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr smiles at Dias, reaching out and placing a kick me sign on his back.
[00:43] <13@Kit> 6Freyja smiles toward Billy. 1"Am I good...?"
[00:43] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ready to go home, Chad? 6* She asks him and Daren.
[00:43] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Yeah, you're good.
[00:43] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias stops, glancing around, since it means it would be on skin. 1"...Eh." 6He moves out, heading for the roof
[00:43] <13@Kit> <Freyja> You don't mind, then, right?
[00:43] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> *Shrugs* IF you don't mind if I'm evil.
15[00:43] * 13Chad`Winters glances back at Zephyr then looks over at Darien. 1"Ready?"
[00:44] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah. Lets get Erevis from the med bay and go.
[00:44] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I think we're good for one another. We balance one another well.
[00:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Caduceus finishes scanning Erevis' stomach, thoughtfully.
15[00:44] * 13Chad`Winters pushes himself up and moves to leave to get Erevis with Zephyr and Darien
[00:44] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek sits by Erevis, legs propped on her bed. 1She good to go, mate?
[00:44] <13@DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr follows along.
[00:44] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Quite. She should just take it easy for awhile.
[00:44] <13@Kit> 6Freyja hrmphs, looking elsewhere. 1"If you leave too long, though, I might just go unchecked."
[00:45] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Hah, doubt she'll do much of that.
[00:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy nods a few times. "I'll be back. I have plans in motion, after all.
[00:45] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Good. I'd spread too much purity and innocence.
[00:45] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Well, when she becomes too fat, she might have no choice. 6* Erevis tears up.
15[00:45] * 13@Jennifer` gets up herself, and stretches a little, sighing as she looks at the table. "I'm gonna get him back. I'm gonna keep my promise if it kills me."
[00:45] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not fat.
[00:45] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Too fat?
[00:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Caduceus just waves a dismissing hand
[00:46] <13@Kit> 6Megumi leans in, holding Isis. 1"You should not call my beloved fat."
[00:46] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek arches a brow. 1Revi isn't fat, mate. I think your glasses are broken.
[00:46] <13@Kit> <Megumi> I might get angry.
[00:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Caduceus eyes Megumi. "You'll both be getting fat."
[00:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr steps into the medical bay.
[00:46] <13@Kit> 6Megumi pauses, then smiles charmingly at Caduceus when he says that. 1"You would not like me when I'm angry."
[00:46] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> I'm sure the hormones from being fat will make you both quite angry.
15[00:46] * 13Chad`Winters eyes Caduceus than slowly eyes Erevis
[00:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien steps in after Chad.
[00:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, clearly not getting what Caduceus' is going on about
[00:47] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Hormones from being fat? I didn't know that was how it worked.
[00:47] <13@Kit> 6Megumi just continues to smile, focusing on Caduceus to lift him into the air.
[00:47] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Well, when you put the bread in the oven, you get a cooked Jew.
15[00:47] * 13@Jennifer` blinks and looks over to see if SPoC is still there.
[00:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6She is
[00:47] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Now, now, if you off me, who will deliver the babies? Or do you plan to do it in a church again?
15[00:48] * 13Chad`Winters pinches the bridge of his nose. 1"Its like they've never seen an after school special.
[00:48] <13@Kit> 6Megumi smiiiiles, shifting Caduces upside-down.
[00:48] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> ... 6* He stares at Caduceus, then eyes Megumi, already knowing about her baby.
15[00:48] * 13@Jennifer` walks over and sits down next to her, looking at her. "What... do you think?"
[00:48] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Well mate, I guess-Wait a bloody minutes. Babies!? More than 2?
[00:48] <13@Xanatos> NRP: er one.
[00:48] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Well, I wouldn't say the plural if it was just one
[00:48] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> About?
09[00:48] <13@Jennifer`> "Everything, what's going on... you're quiet like usual..."
[00:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis gapes at Megumi. "You have twins?"
[00:49] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Megumi's going to have twins? Oi, she'll get plump for sure.
[00:49] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> No, just one in Megumi.
[00:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Chad now
[00:49] <13@Kit> 6Megumi opens her eyes slowly. 1"..."
[00:49] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek pauses and then glances towards Erevis. 1How can you not know you're pregnant?
[00:49] <13@DeathStar> <Darien> You got your pills?
15[00:49] * 13Chad`Winters hands Darien a bottle, it's of anti-depressants
[00:49] <13@Kit> 6Megumi peers toward Erevis. 1"..."
[00:49] <13@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* Frowns, as if wondering that, too. "I am not pregnant. It was Megumi Zhenmei's turn. Besides, I did not desire to go through that experience again."
[00:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon lays on the bed. She apparantly has requested she be shut off for good for failing to save Ben
[00:50] <13@Kit> 6Chii thinks about it. 1"Why don't you be Lemon's?
[00:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shakes her head
[00:50] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps onto the roof and sits on the edge.
[00:51] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek shifts to put his ear to Erevis' stomach. 1I don't hear anything. How far along is she?
[00:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares wide eyed. "Wait, I wonder if you two knocked each other up. That would be hilarious. Stick it in the wrogn places?"
[00:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> It'd make me happy.
[00:51] <13@Kit> 6Chii gazes off to the side, plotting.
[00:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl frowns. "I wanted to be yours. Not her's." 6* She hasn't gone to see Lemon at all since Ben was taken
[00:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Caduceus eyes his data. "Around a month, I'd see, for both of them."
[00:51] <13@Kit> <Megumi> I do not see the possibility.
[00:51] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I have not decided how I feel about this all yet.
[00:52] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Hah, brilliant. You two knocked each other up.
[00:52] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Guess the lot of you got carried away, then.
[00:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns, crossing her arms. "I do not desire to be knocked up. Give it to someone else." 6* She looks embarrassed.
15[00:52] * 13Chad`Winters rubs his face now.
[00:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr reels at that, a hand to her face. "You can't give the fetus to someone else."
[00:53] <13@Kit> <Megumi> ...I remember the night quite well.. I am saying I truly do not comprehend.
[00:53] <13@Xanatos> 6* Drasek glances at Zephyr. 1Just wait, bit. You're living with them still, it's going to be hell in that house.
[00:53] <13Chad`Winters> Yeah, that's enough for me. I'll be outside. 6He steps outside quickly
[00:53] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> It's possible after injecting the stuff into you, some of it may have come back out. Or she did it when you weren't looking. Psionics can move stuff around.
[00:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pales. "I think I'll move out. Ao's living in with them now." 6* She sneaks out
[00:54] <13@Kit> 6Megumi eyes Zephyr abandon them, then stares blankly.
[00:54] <13@Xanatos> <Drasek> Well bit, you could always move into my basement. I've got it fixed up real nice. 6he hops up to follow her out.
[00:54] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> I can give Erevis an abortion if you two want.
[00:54] <13@Kit> 6Megumi jerks at that, twitching some and choosing to slink backwards evasively.
[00:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers at Megumi, to see if that is what she wants.
[00:55] <13@Kit> <Megumi> A... bortion...? ...This is not a programming routine..
[00:56] <13@DeathStar> <Caduceus> Well, think about it. Three kids will be a handful. 6* He moves to check on Lemon's depressed state, fascinated a robot is depressed
[00:56] <13@Kit> <Chii> There goes my wild honeymoon." 6She sighs dramatically.
[00:56] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[00:56] <13@DeathStar> -Epilogue-
[00:56] <13@DeathStar> Song 31: The Spirit that Pierces Reality
[00:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* John walks up behind Dias as he stands on the roof. "So, you really think you can stand up to him again? He can will himself to become stronger.
[00:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers up at the stars as they begin to come out
[00:57] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly looks back at John than up at the sky and the stars. 1"Maybe I can. Maybe I can't. But if I don't try, than I'll never know."
[00:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* John crosses his arms. "Do you think I'll ever measure up to your John?"
[00:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias smirks. 1"Yeah, who knows. You might even surpass who he was."
[00:59] <13@DeathStar> <John> I guess I'll never know until I try.
[00:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at a star. "I wonder how many different realities out there have versions of us, and how many of those are friends."
[01:00] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias smiles, in a good mood, considering what's all happened. 1"I bet there's as many realities as there are stars in the sky. And for each star is a pair of us who push the boundaries of their realities.
[01:00] <13@DeathStar> <John> It would be nice. I guess we'll get to see for ourselves. 6* He turns to Dias, holding out his fist
[01:01] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly turns and pumps his fist out into Johns. 1"The first step's always the hardest but I've learned that with each step after that, it gets easier and easier and eventually nothing can stop you."
[01:02] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah. We'll pierce every reality before us with our spirits. 6* He grins now.
[01:02] <13@DeathStar> -END-
[01:02] <13@DeathStar> I apologize for the length, but how was the movie?
15[01:02] * 13Chad`Winters thumbs up
[01:02] <13@Kit> Good
15[01:02] * 13@Jennifer` showers DS in cookies.
[01:02] <13Chad`Winters> I have to be modest because it was a giant ego stroke to me.

[22:45] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: 10-590.4.18 (The Next Day After the Movie)
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> Location: HQ
[22:46] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel sits in her room, studying from a text book.
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is in the training room, doing push ups with one hand, having been doing them for a long time - he's in his hundreds right now; he wears only pants, his shirt off to reveal his muscled chess.
15[22:47] * 13@Jennifer` knocks on Raquel's door.
[22:48] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel stops in her reading and hesitates. Not because she's wondering who's knocking, but wondering why. "...yes?"
09[22:48] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh good, you're in there. It's Jenn, can I come in?"
[22:49] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I... guess so. It's not locked."
15[22:49] * 13@Jennifer` opens up and steps inside, looking around curiously.
[22:52] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel has a rather spartan looking room. All of her things kept orderly off to one side. She sits on her bed, with a book on her lap. "...yes?"
15[22:53] * 13@Jennifer` looks over at her. "Wanna hang out a bit?"
[22:54] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel hesitates, "...hang... out?"
09[22:55] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah, it's that thing we teenagers do together all the time, socialize, watch a movie, play a game, gossip, you know, hang out." *she smiles, not in the least bit sarcastic, but clearly trying to be humorous*
[22:58] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks at her book, then Jennifer, her book, and back again. "I... guess so?" 6She seems confused more than anything else.
15[22:59] * 13@Jennifer` takes a seat and smiles at her. She's very calm, and her tone is very concerned, rather then condescending. "Don't have many friends do you?"
[23:02] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel ponders that a moment, "I... guess not."
09[23:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Well, me either. It's weird, we're only like a year apart and we never hang out. Don't you get lonely?"
[23:05] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel hesitates, then shakes her head, "...not really. I'm... used to being alone."
09[23:06] <13@Jennifer`> "You can get used to it all you want, doesn't mean you like it." *she crosses her arms* "I know I don't."
[23:08] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I... don't mind not having people around, just..."
09[23:09] <13@Jennifer`> "Just what?"
[23:09] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel closes her eyes, "....nothing."
09[23:11] <13@Jennifer`> "No, go on." *she leans back a little, looking at her with interest* "It can't hurt to open up a little."
[23:12] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel just shakes her head.
09[23:12] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh come on, you can easily beat me up if I go telling people."
[23:13] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes Jennifer, not amused by that.
15[23:14] * 13@Jennifer` sighs a bit. "If you don't wanna. So... studying?"
[23:14] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods.
15[23:15] * 13@Jennifer` leans over, "What subject?"
[23:15] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...history."
09[23:17] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh. You do everything home schooled?"
09[23:17] <13@Jennifer`> "Well..." *looks around* "Elite military base-schooled?"
[23:19] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I... guess. Aya said I should keep working on my school work, since I couldn't take classes."
09[23:20] <13@Jennifer`> "Why can't you? I'm gonna start going back soon, Cedarton probably has the place back to normal already."
[23:21] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel gives Jennifer a weird look, but says nothing.
09[23:22] <13@Jennifer`> "What? You seem pretty normal to me. And I live on a very wide berth for normalcy."
14[23:22] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
[23:24] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I seem... normal?"
09[23:25] <13@Jennifer`> "Well yeah."
03[23:27] * X3 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #taw
15[23:29] * 13@Jennifer` tilts her head a bit. "You think you're not?"
[23:30] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I..." *shakes her head* "...you would need to have a rather defunct definition of normal..."
09[23:31] <13@Jennifer`> "Raquel, I'm a girl from another dimension with a robotic hand and possibly a touch of unconfirmed vampirism. I'm allowed to have a weird definition of normal."
[23:32] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel blinks, wondering how Jennifer can consider herself normal.
09[23:33] <13@Jennifer`> "People still treat me like a normal kid. It's all in how you think of yourself."
[23:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John switches to the other hand to do push ups with it now
[23:34] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...if... you say so."
09[23:35] <13@Jennifer`> "Seriously, there's nothing odd about you unless people knew you were a Weapon. You could easily fit in at school."
[23:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* X reaches a hand through a ripple and takes Raque's history book, then goes back through, the ripple closing.
[23:36] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel opens her mouth to say something, then looks down at her lap where the book was. "......"
[23:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* X stands in the mess hall, eyeing the book she always sees Raquel reading, trying to figure out it's importance.
09[23:37] <13@Jennifer`> "X still kidnapping people's possessions?"
[23:39] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "......" *looks rather annoyed*
09[23:39] <13@Jennifer`> "Let's go find her and get it back."
15[23:39] * 13@Jennifer` gets up.
[23:39] <13@DeathStar> <X> His...tory? 6* She eyes it to see what kind of history
[23:42] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods and gets up to go find what happened to her rather thick book on feudal Japan
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* After memorizing the name and author, X sticks it back through a ripple, to make it land on top of Jen's head.
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> <X> So IX is researching feudal Japan. I will, too.
[23:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves through a ripple to go the library.
15[23:44] * 13@Jennifer` looks up at the book and holds it up. "I found it."
[23:45] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel picks up her book, and after making sure it's not damaged, places it on her trunk carefully
09[23:45] <13@Jennifer`> "Wanna get a bite to eat? Now seems like a good time."
[23:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* John finishes 1000 push ups with each hand and stands up, movnig to get a towel dry off
[23:49] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I... if you want..."
09[23:52] <13@Jennifer`> "I do." *she smiles and opens the door to lead the way*
[23:52] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel follows after Jennifer uncertainly
13[00:00] * Day changed to Sunday, November 9th 2008.
Session Time: Sun Nov 09 00:00:01 2008
15[00:04] * 13@Jennifer` steps into the mess hall and looks around, heading for the food, leaving ample oppurtunity for our lonely GM to insert a character.
03[00:11] * Kit is now known as Kitzzzune
03[00:11] * DeathStar is now known as DS[Gone]
[00:11] <13Kitzzzune> 6Lilith stares at John's feat. 1"...Inhuman."
[00:12] <13Kitzzzune> 6She then pauses at her wording-- and twitches a little.
15[03:19] * 13@Jennifer` steps up to the food and starts to make herself a sandwich, grabbing a bottle of water. "So do you just study all the time?"
[03:26] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *shakes her head* "Not... all the time."
09[03:31] <13@Jennifer`> "What do you do for fun?"
[03:35] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel considers, then glances away, "...read."
15[03:36] * 13@Jennifer` nearly falls over, reeling. "Th-That's not far from studying!"
[03:37] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...yes it is."
09[03:41] <13@Jennifer`> "Well, ever watch any movies?" *she walks to a table with her tray*
[03:42] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "Not any more..."
09[03:57] <13@Jennifer`> "Any more? Why'd you stop?"
[03:58] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...wasn't fun any more."
09[03:59] <13@Jennifer`> "Why's that?"
15[03:59] * 13@Jennifer` takes a bite out of her sandwich.
[04:01] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *shakes her head* "...just because."
15[04:15] * 13@Jennifer` leans over a bit and looks at her. "Y'know... it does no good to be so closed off."
[04:16] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel frowns at that.
09[04:17] <13@Jennifer`> "Well it's true, there's obviously a reason you stopped."
[04:18] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I stopped because I didn't like it any more."
15[04:18] * 13@Jennifer` looks at her. "Why?"
[04:18] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes her, not seeming like she's going to answer that
09[04:19] <13@Jennifer`> "Is this about Lilith?"
[04:21] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel still doesn't seem like she's going to answer.
15[04:26] * 13@Jennifer` sighs a bit and looks down a little, "Alright, if you're not gonna talk, you're not gonna talk."
15[04:26] * 13@Jennifer` sips down some water.
[04:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl remains in her room, emoing, and John does pull up on a bar. And X is raiding a library.
[04:27] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel seems to relax some, now that that is understood
09[04:28] <13@Jennifer`> "Do you get in any training?"
[04:28] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *nods* "Some..."
09[04:29] <13@Jennifer`> "Got a sparring partnet?"
09[04:29] <13@Jennifer`> *partner
[04:31] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I... sorta."
09[04:31] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh? Who?"
[04:32] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I have... instructors."
09[04:33] <13@Jennifer`> "Really? John's starting to teach me soon too, who's teaching you?" *she continues to devour the sandwich as though it was her enemy*
[04:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* X returns to the mess hall with books on Feudal Japan and sits down, reading them
[04:33] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *starts to answer, then pauses, eyeing X* "...is that my book?"
[04:34] <13@DeathStar> <X> No.
[04:34] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *seems uncertain... it LOOKS like her book*
09[04:35] <13@Jennifer`> "She put your book back on my head, remember?"
[04:37] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods slowly
14[04:38] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
09[04:40] <13@Jennifer`> "So..." *she takes the last bite* "Who did you say was teachin you?"
[04:40] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks at Jen like she's crazy, "I... didn't."
15[04:42] * 13@Jennifer` pouts a little. "It was a good try, anyways, who's teachin you?"
03[04:43] * X3 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #taw
[04:43] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *pauses* "...my family."
09[04:44] <13@Jennifer`> "The other weapons?" *she looks curiously at X*
[04:46] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods
09[04:48] <13@Jennifer`> "Cool, you must be really tough then."
[04:49] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel pauses, "...maybe."
15[04:53] * 13@Jennifer` raises a brow. "Maybe we should test that out later, up for a spar?"
[04:54] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel glances to X, looking for support, then shrugs a little, "If... you want..."
[04:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* X ignores them both
15[04:55] * 13@Jennifer` smiles. "Great! So what else do you like to do?"
[04:56] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *pauses* "...that's... about it..."
15[04:59] * 13@Jennifer` smiles a bit. "Are you happy with that?"
[04:59] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *shrugs*
[05:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* John enters the mess hall with no shirt on, showing off his manly muscles to everyone. He moves and gets some milk, drinking it from the carton, then moves back out
[05:04] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel blinks, eyeing John as he passes through casually
[05:06] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel then looks away, blushing
15[05:06] * 13@Jennifer` waves to John and smiles in greeting, then watches him go out, before looking back at Raquel. She blinks a bit.
[05:09] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel doesn't face either of them for the moment
09[05:11] <13@Jennifer`> "Hey, he's like Dias, you just gotta be used to it I suppose."
[05:12] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods slowly
15[05:13] * 13@Jennifer` leans back and sighs, putting her arms behind her head. "Kinda cute really."
[05:15] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods slowly
[05:15] <13@DeathStar> <X> Weapon II is better looking. 6* She states as she reads, as if to clarify the two girl's misconception with looks
[05:21] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *gives X an odd look, as if she could never think that* "...you're biased."
[05:21] <13@DeathStar> <X> I am not.
[05:23] <13@Ariel> Raquel> ...you have a strong connection... *doesn't say what* ...with Dias. Of course you'd be partial towards him.
15[05:23] * 13@Jennifer` giggles. "Strong connection? Try crush."
[05:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks up slowly at Jennifer, not amused. She opens a ripple under Jennifer's seat, making her fall through. Jennifer would land on the parking lot
[05:25] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel changes the subject, "...are you enjoying the book, X?"
[05:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* X closes the ripple and goes back to reading. "Annoying brat. The only crush I have is what I will do to II's body when I deaft him."
[05:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* X narrows her eyes a bit. "Only the sections dealing with Lilith's time period."
15[05:26] * 13@Jennifer` comes back in shortly after, grumbling a bit and pulling up a new seat.
[05:26] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel forces a smile, though X's resoning is painful to hear.
09[05:29] <13@Jennifer`> "Fine, fine, there's no crush, and one day you'll defeat him and crush him in battle." *She grabs her water*
[05:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes Jennifer, then eyes Raquel. "Weapon IX should find stronger people to hang out with. This one is annoying." 6* She poutily takes her books and ripples out
15[05:30] * 13@Jennifer` waits till the ripple is closed and rolls her eyes. "Snob."
[05:31] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *shakes her head* "...please don't speak badly of her."
09[05:31] <13@Jennifer`> "Sorry, I think I have a little bit of a right to be grumpy, I was lucky the chair broke my fall."
[05:32] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...she's... sensitive... to the Dias issue."
09[05:33] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah, I know."
09[05:34] <13@Jennifer`> "For someone claiming to be so strong though, you'd think she'd be able to shrug it off a little. I still can't tell if she hates him or loves him."
[05:35] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel just stares at that comment, unable to comprehend this girl's logic
15[05:36] * 13@Jennifer` frowns a bit. "I guess it's easy for you guys who are naturally strong to miss. But it's like your need to study, half of a person's strength comes from within, not from their abilities or how fit they are."
09[05:37] <13@Jennifer`> "Getting like that over a little chiding is... well... weak."
[05:37] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "And... you're telling me this... why...?"
09[05:38] <13@Jennifer`> "So you can understand why I'm in disbelief and a little grumpy over getting a free ripple ride to the parking lot."
[05:39] <13@Ariel> Raquel> *opens her mouth to say something, then stops. Then tries again. Stops. Third try...* "...you... have worked with her before... correct? And... you're sur... you didn't... how..."
[05:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy leans over Jennifer, sensing a chance to be evil. "So, does that mean you have a crush on Scar?" 6* She asks Jennifer, holding up a drawing of them together
[05:40] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel can't figure out the relivence of that question either.
15[05:41] * 13@Jennifer` peers at the picture. "I shot him."
[05:41] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Do you shoot all your ex-lovers?
[05:42] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "So she's like... a black widow?"
[05:42] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> I think she's like X. She has a crush, but also wants to kill him.
15[05:43] * 13@Jennifer` frowns. "I hate Scar."
09[05:43] <13@Jennifer`> "He's a creepy decietful pervert."
[05:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Billy gets a mischevious smile. "Yeah?" 6* She pulls out a gem and holds it out to Jennifer. "I want you to hold onto this."
15[05:44] * 13@Jennifer` eyes it, then Billy. "What is it?"
[05:44] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Just a little something I want you to carry on your person until I tell you other. You do owe me, remember? 6* She refers back to the healing she did
[05:45] <13@DeathStar> nRP: Otherwise
[05:45] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes the gem curiously
15[05:45] * 13@Jennifer` sighs a little and nods, taking it. "Alright. I'll carry it, but I'd at least like to know what it is."
[05:46] <13@DeathStar> <Billy> Nothing to worry about. Won't do anything to you at all. Ja ne. 6* She hovers and shadowports
15[05:46] * 13@Jennifer` pockets it and frowns a little, looking over at Raquel. "Do you worry more when she says 'don't worry' too?"
[05:48] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods.
09[05:50] <13@Jennifer`> "With my luck it'll be some sort of wierd Scar attracting device." *she sighs a bit more and gets up*
[05:52] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...maybe."
03[05:52] * DeathStar is now known as DS[Gone]
[05:54] <13@DS[Gone]> -END-

[18:49] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: Day AFTER Movie 11
[18:49] <13@DeathStar> Location: HQ
[18:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Raquel and Jennifer have finished their loooooong lunch by now, and John has moved to the rec room to sit without a shirt, drinking milk
[18:51] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps into the messhall, wearing only his training shorts. He looks at John. 1"Sweet. They did take my idea for a shirtless day serious."
[18:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances over, then peers down at his shirt. "I find it helps me get stronger. Plus the girls love it."
[18:52] <13@DeathStar> *shirtless body
[18:53] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Girls do love guys without shirts. 6He nods, probably day dreaming now.
[18:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* John finishes his milk, and tosses it into the trash can. "So I noticed Katrina in this reality is like 30 something years old. How old does that make you?"
[18:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head, snapping out of it. 1"I have no clue, honestly."
[18:55] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hm. 6* He studies Dias. John, himself, appears to look 22.
[18:55] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops onto the back of the couch, sitting on it. 1"I was born in a test tube, so I don't really remember anything. Plus, I'm horrible with dates.
[18:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> Test tubes are pretty damn small. You must have been a tiny ass baby.
[18:57] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well, I might not have been born in one. 6He scratches his chin now. 1"It's hard to say. I do know that Chad found me in a big tube."
[18:57] <13@DeathStar> <John> Chad? Who's that?
[18:58] <13@Kit> 6Chii degrades a couple of the bags with a multiple-target workout, a sour expression on an otherwise blank face.
[18:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* X steps through a ripple into the training room, reading a book. She moves and takes a seat on the bench
[18:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias taps his chin. 1"About this tall. 6He motions with his hand. 1"He was the first of the Weapons to be made. I was the second..."
[18:59] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh, Weapon Id. 6* He nods, looking like he's not impressed
[19:00] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Id. Yeah, he doesn't exist anymore.
[19:00] <13@DeathStar> <John> He doesn't in my reality, either
[19:00] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Really? Lucky you than.
[19:00] <13@DeathStar> <John> I guess. Dias killed him
[19:01] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh. 6He shifts his hands behind his head now. 1"I wonder why your Dias is the way he is."
[19:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shrugs
[19:01] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I bet he never got hugged enough.
[19:02] <13@DeathStar> <John> Uh...maybe. 6* He points at Dias. "You can hug him."
[19:02] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Damnt. That's what I should've tried. 6He scowls now
[19:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* John shakes his head at Dias
[19:03] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...What?
[19:03] <13@DeathStar> <John> I think if you hugged him, he'd kill you
[19:03] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh. Maybe I won't try to hug him than. Unless it's a Bear Hug.
[19:05] <13@DeathStar> <John> Good idea. And after the bear hug, you can jump off a roof and land on him
[19:06] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks upwards, clearly thinking on it. 1"I could call it the Atomic Drill."
[19:06] <13@DeathStar> <John> Now you're thinking.
[19:07] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> So what do you think about it here so far?
[19:07] <13@DeathStar> <John> Don't really have an opinion yet - though you guys do have a lot of hot girls running around here
[19:08] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Can't argue that fact...Hey, did your reality have strip clubs?
[19:08] <13@DeathStar> <John> At one time.
[19:08] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> At one time?! 6He stares in shock
[19:09] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah. 6* He glances up in thought. "I never was in one before they started closing. But I hear they were nice."
[19:09] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes go wide. 1"Seriously?! You've never been in a stripclub before?"
[19:09] <13@DeathStar> <John> Uh, no.
[19:10] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> By god man. 6He hops off the couch. 1"We need to get you to a stripclub now."
[19:10] <13@DeathStar> <John> Now? 6* He repeats, peering about. "Aren't those things at night?
[19:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii works on increasing her reflex speed in twists-- what's necessary to turn and strike something new at a different angle, apparently, but adapting her hitting combo routines to apply to it. The speed is lowered, of course, but from a normal standpoint still fluid.
[19:11] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Wait, what time is it?
[19:11] <13@DeathStar> <John> A little after noon.
[19:11] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh, yeah. It won't be open until around 7ish.
15[19:12] * 13@Jennifer` steps into the rec room, stretchign a bit after having left Raquel back to her studies. She doesn't even seem to notice the two as she flops on the couch.
[19:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'll take you to your very first stripclub tonight than. 6He nods, as he slams his fist into an open palm
[19:13] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hey, sounds good. 6* He gets a dreamy look
15[19:13] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a bit and looks over at them, then just shakes her head and smiles.
[19:14] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'll make sure we have plenty of credits. One quick question, any specific type of girl you fancy more than another?
[19:15] <13@DeathStar> <John> No. In my opinion, all girls are like fine wines. Each flavor fits a certain mood.
[19:16] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Wines huh. Never liked drinking that stuff.
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> It's a metaphor.
15[19:16] * 13@Jennifer` leans over a bit, listening, probably finding it good entertainment value.
[19:16] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> What are those?
[19:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> It's when you compare something to something else to make a point.
[19:18] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh. 6He shifts his hands behind the back of his neck.
[19:19] <13@DeathStar> <John> Anyway, do you have any honeys here? Sampled the goods?
[19:20] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Most of the woman on this team are either taken, lesbians or too scary. So I did most of my sampling outside the base.
[19:20] <13@DeathStar> <John> Nonsense. There's no such thing as a lesbian. Only "threesomes" with two other girls.
[19:21] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Huh. Never thought about it that way.
15[19:21] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a little, tilting her head and thinking about it.
[19:21] <13@DeathStar> <John> Exactly. Women might claim to only like other women, but in reality, they're just like men. They want to sample a fine woman now and again. But sooner or later they're going to want a man in the mix to make it a true night to remember.
[19:22] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'll have to remember that.
[19:23] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'm thinking about trying to get that loud Asian girl and the violet haired one out on dates.
[19:23] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You can take the loud asian girl. The violet one's mine.
09[19:23] <13@Jennifer`> "Be wary on Chii, that's Cheryl territory."
[19:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* John studies him. "Only yours?"
[19:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I never learned to share.
[19:24] <13@DeathStar> <John> So are you two an item?
[19:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No. But I have a lot invested in her.
[19:24] <13@DeathStar> <John> That's cool.
15[19:25] * 13@Jennifer` grins a bit. An evil little look on her face.
[19:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leans in a bit closer, as if sharing a secret. "Any other girls off limits?"
[19:27] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias taps his chin. 1"Nah. That's about them all."
15[19:27] * 13@Jennifer` watches, likely unable to hear that one.
[19:28] <13@DeathStar> <John> Cool. 6* He nods, leaning back. "I noticed the purple haired one has a pretty older woman with her."
[19:28] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's her sidekick. Lilith.
[19:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> I bet she's a wild one.
09[19:29] <13@Jennifer`> "She can be a real animal sometimes."
15[19:29] * 13@Jennifer` smiles a bit and grabs the remote for the holovid.
[19:29] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> She's got the soul of her dead crush inside her.
[19:30] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> He lives inside a sword that's inside her.
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... okay, a bit too complicated, but intriguing.
09[19:30] <13@Jennifer`> "She can also turn into a dog."
[19:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> All women can be bitches at times.
09[19:30] <13@Jennifer`> "...Clever."
[19:30] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias starts laughing.
15[19:30] * 13@Jennifer` giggles a bit.
[19:31] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> But no, really, she can turn into a dog.
09[19:32] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah, I as literal."
09[19:32] <13@Jennifer`> *was
[19:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> Huh. Cool.
[19:33] <13@DeathStar> <John> Can the purple hair one turn into a cat?
[19:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No. Thank god.
09[19:33] <13@Jennifer`> "She gets pretty grumpy though."
[19:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes Jen now. 1"She only gets that way when you insult her, normally.
[19:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Jen, sensing something intriguing
09[19:35] <13@Jennifer`> "Hey, I just teased her a little about you." *she pouts a bit* "Can't even say something in good fun around her."
[19:35] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah? What did you tease her about?
[19:35] <13Chad`Winters> 6dias tilts his head as he waits
15[19:36] * 13@Jennifer` crosses her arms. "Just said she had an obvious crush on Dias."
[19:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John lets out a whistle.
[19:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah, teasing her about supposedly liking the guy she wants to kill. Not a good idea.
[19:38] <13@DeathStar> <X> Wait, she wants to kill you, but you want her?
[19:39] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's her goal as the ultimate weapon. 6He shrugs.
[19:40] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sounds complicated like a soap
[19:40] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It is, normally I'd have a headache but I don't do a lot of thinking to save myself the trouble.
[19:41] <13@DeathStar> <John> So, have you asked her out on a date? Maybe take her to a strip club?
09[19:41] <13@Jennifer`> "Eh, this place isn't..." *she blinks, staring at John for that idea*
[19:42] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Date...Oh, she actually took me out on one. Well she called it that but probably because she didn't know what they really are. 6He rubs his head now. 1"Something tells me it's be more trouble than it's worth. Plus her sidekick Lilith would totally stop that from ever happening."
[19:43] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hey. You never know until you try. I always wanted to have a night with a purple haired girl. It's on my list
[19:43] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> We could dye Jen's hair purple for you.
[19:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pauses, peering at Jennifer now
15[19:46] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a little, "I-I... ummm... maybe I guess?"
[19:46] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I-I can't believe you'd actually think about it. 6He stares, clearly confused
[19:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is staring as well
15[19:47] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a little. "I-It's hair color? I've had wierder things happen to me."
[19:48] <13@DeathStar> <John> 'fraid you're too young, kiddo.
09[19:48] <13@Jennifer`> ...Too young to dye my hair?
[19:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pauses, then shakes his head a few times.
[19:48] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> This is Jen. She's a little blonde...6He motions ditzy with his hand
15[19:50] * 13@Jennifer` blinks a little, looking lost. "We were talking about dates right?"
[19:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh, I get you. 6* He nods at Dias
15[19:50] * 13@Jennifer` frowns a little and rubs the back of her head. "I'm right here you know."
[19:51] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias panics. 1"Don't move. If we're lucky, she won't see us and she'll leave."
15[19:51] * 13@Jennifer` chucks the remote at him.
[19:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Dias oddly, then eyes the remote coming in
15[19:52] * 13@Jennifer` throws well actually, she picked it up from Chii.
[19:52] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias doesn't move, and it smacks him, he stays perfectly still
15[19:52] * 13@Jennifer` stares at him. She gets up and walks over to him.
[19:53] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias continues to stand still.
15[19:53] * 13@Jennifer` pulls out a black marker from her pouch.
[19:54] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias reaches out and bops Jen on the head. 1"Bad Jen. BAD!"
15[19:54] * 13@Jennifer` pouts.
[19:55] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Drawing on peoples faces isn't cool. 6He hrmps and turns to leave
[19:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* John keeps watching the two
15[19:56] * 13@Jennifer` puts the marker away and frowns. "Making fun of them isn't either. Are Superheroes supposed to do that?"
[19:57] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias just holds a hand up and he steps out into the hallway and starts walking down it
15[19:57] * 13@Jennifer` looks deeply dissapointed, crossing her arms and frowning.
09[19:58] <13@Jennifer`> "Okay okay, I won't write on people's faces."
[19:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias is long gone and he steps into the messhall to get some food
15[20:00] * 13@Jennifer` looks over at John.
[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* John has ninja vanished
[20:00] <13@Kit> 6Chii falls back, sitting and heaving after she finishes. 1"...Damn it. Still not enough."
15[20:01] * 13@Jennifer` sighs and walks out herself, heading down the hallway.
15[20:03] * 13@Jennifer` steps into the training room and looks at Chii, before heading over to a punching bag.
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rises from behind the couch. "Shew. Crisis averted." 6* He hops back onto the couch to watch the HoloVid
09[20:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Cheryl doing any better?"
15[20:04] * 13@Jennifer` gets into a stance and starts kicking the bag she's facing.
[20:04] <13@Kit> <Chii> She'll be doing better when we get moving.
[20:05] <13@Kit> <Chii> Neither of us like sitting around.
09[20:05] <13@Jennifer`> "Figure I should wait to appraoch her?"
15[20:06] * 13@Jennifer` keeps on kicking, a bit more aggressively then usual.
[20:06] <13@Kit> 6Lilith runs into the rec room, gazing around quickly. 1"Where is the crisis? I will put an end to it."
[20:06] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Over what?
09[20:06] <13@Jennifer`> "Joining the team. I want to go with you guys."
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* John jerks as Lilith comes rushing in, then peers at her. "Hey - Lilith is it?"
15[20:07] * 13@Jennifer` starts kicking with her other leg, moving into one-two combos.
[20:07] <13@Kit> <Lilith> ...Yes, I am called that. Where is the crisis? It is my duty as a superhero to end it.
[20:07] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...I think it's better you cut your losses, Jen. Seriously.
[20:07] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh, it's not important. 6* He waves his hand once. "Jennifer was going to dye her hair. But hey. There is a more personal type of crisis - since I'm kind of new here and don't know anyone, I was wondering if you'd like to have dinner with me?"
09[20:08] <13@Jennifer`> "No."
[20:08] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Hunger is not a crisis here... there is a mess hall two halls down and to the left.
15[20:08] * 13@Jennifer` kicks a little harder. "Ben isn't a loss I can just cut."
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> <John> No, the crisis is more that I need friends. If not dinner, is there anything else we could do together?
[20:10] <13@Kit> <Chii> Kid, as I understand it-- you're from another reality to begin with. You have no family.
[20:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii eyes her from the corner of her eyes. 1"Those here... they've accepted you because it's what you knew before... but they're not the ones that were really yours. Perhaps the new bonds are similar or accepted, but ...I know Ben's 'your bro' or whatever, but whoever's going... we have no garauntee when, if we'll ever get back.
[20:12] <13@Kit> <Chii> We have no garauntee we'll survive.
[20:12] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias sits down in the messhall with a tray of various foods
15[20:12] * 13@Jennifer` stops kicking to look down. "Family is what you make it Chii. Half Brother, Alternate Reality or not... I love my little brother."
[20:12] <13@Kit> <Chii> We have..." 6She peers upward. 1"No garauntee we'll get Ben back."
[20:12] <13@Kit> <Chii> For me and Cheryl, we're obviously dead if we've failed, one way or another.
09[20:13] <13@Jennifer`> "Chii, I know what I want to do. I know the risks, I know what could happen."
[20:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> I haven't heard anything about SPoC going-- so you mean to tell me that instead of staying with your new mother, whom you know is alive and well, here with you now-- you're going to leave her behind without a second thought.
[20:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're going to abandon her in favor of a half-sibling not even old enough to really bond with you, and be as good as dead to Natalie.
[20:13] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC suddenly looks up from her desk, getting that horrible sense of dread
[20:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> Even to me that's pretty cold. Especially with how much you've doved up to her.
15[20:14] * 13@Jennifer` tightens her hands into fists. "And if she does go and I don't? I get to remain here while everyone I know and care about runs off to save the multiverse."
[20:15] <13@Kit> <Chii> Nat's Nat, though. She'll survive, I'm sure.
[20:16] <13@Kit> 6Chii tchs. 1"You were making this decision without that even in mind. You gave me the words determined to go before I even brought it up."
15[20:16] * 13@Jennifer` frowns at her. "I made a promise."
[20:16] <13@Kit> 6Chii strains and gets up, standing lazily leaned back. 1"Maybe she's not that important, after all. I just thought Natalie really might be a mother to you. Fuck if I know, though. I don't have a mother and never did." 6She heads for the exit.
09[20:17] <13@Jennifer`> "I didn't say this was easy Chii!"
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers up from reading to eye the two
15[20:17] * 13@Jennifer` punches the bag she was working on with her metal hand, then material ripping a bit.
[20:18] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC get's that same sense of dread again.
[20:20] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shovels his food into his mouth.
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* X goes back to reading
15[20:22] * 13@Jennifer` sighs a bit and pulls her hand away from the bag, frowning in Chii's direction.
[20:22] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Together...?" 6She seems to think on that-- her expression as empty as ever.
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well, if you're not interested, that's cool. I hear you got someone inside you anyway that you hang out with
[20:23] <13@Kit> 6Lilith peers down, staring at her chest.
[20:23] <13@Kit> 6Lilith looks at John. 1"Oh."
[20:23] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Yes. Drake.
14[20:23] * X3 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> <John> That's his name? 6* He nods, as if he's still putting together this drama
15[20:24] * 13@Jennifer` turns and starts to head out herself. Looking down at the floor in growing frustration.
15[20:27] * 13@Jennifer` heads down the hall towards the living quarters, stopping as she looks towards the door to the commander's quarters, rubbing the back of her head more.
[20:27] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias finishes his food and puts the tray away. He moves out of the messhall and starts walking towards the training room, a bottle of milk in his hand
03[20:28] * X3 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #taw
[20:29] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps inside and does a double take to see X with a book. 1"What ya readin?"
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> <X> A history book
15[20:30] * 13@Jennifer` approaches her door, looking hesitant, still unsure if it's alright to bother her so soon about this.
[20:30] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Really? What's it about?
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> <X> Feudal Japan. IX was reading it. I am finding out what she is trying to discover.
15[20:31] * 13@Jennifer` closes her eyes and knocks on her door.
[20:31] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah? 6He plops down to sit beside her. 1"You could always just ask her."
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> <X> No.
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* There's no answer.
15[20:32] * 13@Jennifer` knocks again just to be sure.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* There's some movement inside, but the door still doesn't open
[20:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> That'd be too easy. 6He rests his head against the wall. 1"You liking it so far?"
15[20:33] * 13@Jennifer` frowns, and realizing it's an issue of motivation, gives it a third try.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> <X> No.
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> <X> Though the time period Lilith was alive is interesting
[20:34] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at X. 1"What do you find the most interesting so far?
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* A long pause, then the door opens, a collar around her neck still, her hair a complete mess, and wearing only her uniform top. She stares at Jennifer bleary eyed, smelling of sweat and booze.
15[20:35] * 13@Jennifer` ignores her appearance, her face getting concerned though. "Can we talk?"
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> No.
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl closes the door in her face
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <X> As I said, Lilith's time perio.
[20:36] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You want to know more about her, huh?
15[20:36] * 13@Jennifer` stands there a moment, considering things.
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> <X> Yes. 6* She glances up
[20:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> She know you're looking up this stuff to get to know her better?
09[20:37] <13@Jennifer`> "Cheryl..." *she speaks, knowing she's talking to a door*
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> No. She's busy solving crisises as a superhero.
15[20:38] * 13@Jennifer` sighs and turns around, rubbing the back of her head. "Get well soon... we need you..."
[20:38] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Don't, atleast until you know a lot. That way when you show her your knowledge, she'll be overly excited.
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <X> Really?
[20:39] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods. 1"Yeah. It'll totally knock her off her feet.
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> <X> I don't want to knock her off her feet.
[20:41] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's a...6He pauses as he thinks. 1"Metaphor. 6He beams, proud of himself now.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <X> What's a metaphor?
09[20:42] <13@Jennifer`> "What am I doing..." *she turns and knocks again*
[20:42] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Crap. 6He frowns now. 1"I forgot.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* No response again
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... 6* She shakes her head at Dias
[20:43] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You wouldn't actually knock her off on her feet. But it'd shock her and probably make her happy since it'd show you care a lot about her.
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods, a slight smile. "Okay."
15[20:44] * 13@Jennifer` knocks a bit more.
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl opens the door and an annoyed Cheryl looms over Jennifer. "Don't think I won't break your nose."
[20:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods again. 1"She's lucky to have you."
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* X pauses. "She is?"
09[20:46] <13@Jennifer`> "I deserve that much already." *she looks up at her slowly* "If it makes you feel better then go ahead, I just want to talk."
[20:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rears back and throws her fist straight for Jennifer's nose.
[20:47] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods. 1"Yep. It's like how I'm lucky to have Marcus as a friend."
15[20:47] * 13@Jennifer` moves her face to the side a little, but still takes a punch to the face, falling backward.
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes her fall. "Yeah. That's what I thought." 6* She steps back inside and slams the door shut.
15[20:47] * 13@Jennifer` already in the middle of getting up. "Wait."
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> <X> Even though he is useless as a sidekick?
15[20:49] * 13@Jennifer` holds the side of her face and grumbles.
[20:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> He's actually more useful than you think
[20:50] <13@DeathStar> <X> How so?
[20:52] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> He stands up for me and I know that if I ever need him, he'll be there.
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> <X> So you use him as a shield?
[20:53] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> What? No.
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> <X> Then what good is he?
[20:54] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Would you use Lilith as a shield?
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> <X> If necessary and she had her abilities in place.
[20:55] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hmmm. 6He shifts his hands behind his head.
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> <X> Is that wrong?
[20:56] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You care about her, right?
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> <X> Yes.
15[20:56] * 13@Jennifer` stumbles back down the hall and moves into SPoC's room, sitting down on the bed. "Got a first aid kit in here? I don't wanna deal with Duce on this."
[20:58] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Than yeah, it's wrong to consider using her as a shield. Don't get me wrong, she's going to want to protect you. You should want to protect each other.
[20:59] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks up from her desk and over at Jen, hiting the mark on her face. 1"What happened?"
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> <X> I shield her, too
09[20:59] <13@Jennifer`> "Cheryl's fist."
[20:59] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You protect her. 6He corrects
09[21:00] <13@Jennifer`> "Like I said, I don't want to deal with Duce, he'll crack some joke and it'll have to be reported, and I don't want Cheryl dealing with that."
[21:02] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns and gets up, moving into her bathroom, she steps out a moment with a basic medikit and opens it. She starts to tend to her face. 1"This will most likely bruise."
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> <X> Yes.
09[21:02] <13@Jennifer`> "Something for John and Dias to joke about while we train, it's fine."
[21:06] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> This will hurt. 6She presses against it, feeling for a break
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* John walks down a hallway, hands behind his head
09[21:07] <13@Jennifer`> "Owowow." *she flinches a bit, no breaks, but it's really tender*
[21:08] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods. 1"I'm going to get stronger so I can protect everyone."
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> <X> ... 6* She eyes him
[21:10] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Don't think I can? 6He looks at her.
[21:11] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> It does not appear to be broken, but their maybe a hairline fracture. Caduceus should check you out.
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> <X> It's unlikely you can protect everyone. For example, the kid was taken.
[21:11] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias winces, than frowns. 1"Can I ask you not to say anything about Ben around Cheryl?"
09[21:12] <13@Jennifer`> "Kay..." *she doesn't seem happy about the idea*
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> <X> Why is that? It's clearly on her mind
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> <X> Besides, I believe the annoying girl called Jennifer is going to speak to her about joining the unit
[21:13] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> How would you feel if you suddenly lost Lilith...6His face blank. 1"Oh god."
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X thinks on that. "It would hurt."
[21:14] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head to shift his thought back to X. 1"Cheryl's hurting right now. Bringing it up around her will only piss her off right now."
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> <X> Hm. Maybe she'll hurt that annoying girl.
[21:14] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's very likely.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* X suddenly brightens and grabs Dias through a ripple, entering SPoC's room.
[21:15] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I am sorry. I have only been taught to deal with small injur...ies...6She blinks as she eyes the two.
[21:15] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias acks and stares now. 1"Uh oh."
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes Jen, then points. "You were right."
15[21:17] * 13@Jennifer` frowns. "Privacy!"
[21:17] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves to cover X's mouth with his hand. 1"Right about how Jen loves SPoC." 6He starts to guide her to the door
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* X begins to talk into Dias' hand, trying to say that's not what she meant.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* John enters the mess hall and moves to eye all the food.
[21:18] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I know, I know X. I'll make sure to get you a statue commerating you on helping to defeat the evil me.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* X makes a loud noise into Dias' hand. She tries to mentally get Lilith to aid her
[21:19] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias opens the door and shifts X out, shutting the door behind them
[21:19] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> ...What was that about?
09[21:19] <13@Jennifer`> "Probably figuring I went to see Cheryl and seeing if I got hit."
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer`> "I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bet attached."
[21:20] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC eyes Jen now. 1"Is this true?"
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer`> "I told you Cheryl hit me..."
[21:21] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I thought that you were kidding.
09[21:22] <13@Jennifer`> "Oh... no I let her get in a punch."
[21:22] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> And why did she punch you?
09[21:22] <13@Jennifer`> "I told her she could."
[21:23] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> You should refrain from doing something stupid like that again.
[21:23] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias lets out a puff of air as he lowers his hand now
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* X glares. "I didn't like your hand there."
09[21:24] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah, probably." *she frowns* "Dunno if she feels better, but I do."
[21:24] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sorry.
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> <X> Hmph. I believe you should give me something now for making me suffer your hand on my face.
[21:25] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> It is not smart to push a person like Cheryl. She holds the rank of General which means she can if she wants to, cause you problems down the road.
[21:25] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> A hug? 6He holds his arms out
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* X recoils.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> <X> D-Definitely not.
[21:26] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias scowls. 1"I didn't think it'd be that easy."
15[21:26] * 13@Jennifer` looks down and sighs deeply. "You're right... I just... I wanted her to take out her feelings about Ben on someone... and I deserved it."
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> <X> I'm not easy.
[21:28] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No you're not. I just thought I could get by with giving you a hug. 6He crosses his arms now. 1"So what will it cost me?"
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> <X> Take me and Lilith to a bar tonight?
[21:29] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can do that. 6He nods. 1"Care if I ask John to come with?
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* X makes a face. "Alright."
[21:30] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You don't want him to come with?
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> <X> It's just that it's been fun with just the three of us.
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer`> "I'll stay away from her till she's had time to calm... I just... I'm so damn frustrated."
[21:31] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns. 1"If that is how you feel you need to deal with things, than that is your decision."
15[21:32] * 13@Jennifer` frowns a little too. "I liked it more when you just told me I was stupid Nat..."
[21:32] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias blinks at that. 1"Well, I did promise to take him to the strip club tonight." 6He scratches his chin as he thinks.
[21:33] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I have learned that there are things that you will not change your mind on no matter what I say.
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> <X> A what?
[21:33] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> A strip club...Oh this isn't going to end well. 6He slumps
15[21:33] * 13@Jennifer` sighs a bit and looks down, "Am I that stubborn?"
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> <X> I want to go to a bar, unless this strip club is more fun
[21:34] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It is for guys and woman who like...woman.
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> <X> Huh?
03[21:35] * Jackieness (Psy@h246.3.90.75.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) has joined #taw
03[21:35] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
[21:35] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> But if you've been having fun with me at the bars. I can change my plans.
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> <X> Good. Then we'll go to a bar. Let's do it now.
[21:36] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's early...let me clear it with Cheryl. Get yourself and Lilith ready just incase she says yes.
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> <X> Why do you need permission to go to a bar?
[21:37] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's more to let her know I'm off the base incase something happens.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> Oh. I will get Lilith ready. You may bring John along, too. 6* She mentally locates Lilith and heads off to get her ready for the bar
[21:38] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias nods and moves off to the generals room.*
[21:38] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Yes.
15[21:39] * 13@Jennifer` looks at SPoC quietly. "...Are you going to go with the team when they start crossing realities?"
[21:39] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I have not decided.
09[21:40] <13@Jennifer`> "I wanna go. Though... you heard that at the meeting."
[21:41] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Yes I had heard that. 6She packs her medikit and moves back into the bathroom to put it away
[21:41] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves upto Cheryl's room and knocks on it once. 1"Cheryl, it's me."
09[21:42] <13@Jennifer`> "I'd... really like it if you were there too..." *she frowns a bit, getting up slowly*
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* A moment pauses and the door opens. Cheryl eyes Dias with the same bleary eyes and get up - her uniform shirt, unbuttoned, covering her breasts, and apparantly no underwear on, but the shirt manages to cover up her lower area juuuust enough.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> What?
[21:44] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps out of the bathroom. 1"Unfortunately, I am unsure where they will place me."
[21:45] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias frowns slightly. 1"I just wanted to clear it with you, X wants to go out to the bar with me, Lilith and John. That ok with you or would you rather me stay here?"
09[21:45] <13@Jennifer`> "I think it's a volunteer thing mostly."
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Whatever. Have fun.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl goes to shut the door.
[21:46] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves to stop the door with his hand. 1"Hey."
[21:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes him, dangerously, despite her apathetic look.
[21:47] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> If you need someone to take it out on, give me a call.
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm fine. 6* She waits for him to remove his hand
[21:48] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Than you should have no problem kicking the crap out of me in a sparring match.
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Dias. I don't want to fuck around with you people today. Leave me be.
[21:50] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sorry. 6He lowers his hand. 1"I'll be here if you ever need me."
[21:50] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I am not sure I want to leave this place behind.
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl closes the door.
15[21:51] * 13@Jennifer` sighs deeply. "I'm not sure I wanna leave you behind... but I can't just give up on Ben either."
[21:52] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I understand taht.
[21:53] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias runs his hand through his hair and he heads towards his room to get ready
15[21:53] * 13@Jennifer` frowns, looking at her. "What are we...?"
[21:54] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I do not understand.
09[21:54] <13@Jennifer`> "Are we family?"
[21:55] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns. 1"I am your guardian."
09[21:56] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah but... what does it mean? Are we... like mom and daughter? Sisters? Friends?"
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sits down in the mess hall, eating some food.
[21:58] <13Chad`Winters> 6SPoC glances down at the floor. 1"I believe it is more like friends."
15[21:59] * 13@Jennifer` smiles a little. "I'm not... like dissapointed or anything... though sometimes I think of you as my mom... but... well... I'm glad I know that."
[22:01] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I am sorry that I cannot give you what you want.
15[22:01] * 13@Jennifer` giggles a bit. "Don't be... Natalie I don't think anyone could."
15[22:01] * 13@Jennifer` looks away a little. "My Mom's dead... that's all there is to it."
[22:02] <13Chad`Winters> <SPoC> It is unfortunate that you lost your mother.
15[22:03] * 13@Jennifer` nods quietly.
[22:03] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias passes by the messhall than stops, peeking in. 1"Put your drinking clothes on, I'm taking you, X and Lilith to the bar."
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* John turns to eye Dias, then eyes the clothing he got. "This is my only clothing, technically, so I guess it'll do."
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* John gets up and leaves his tray behind. "It is a strip bar?"
[22:05] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> No. But I can hold my liqour so we'll still have plenty of time to hit it. Hopefully."
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sounds good. So, you think I might have a chance with Lilith, dead boyfriend in her chest aside?
[22:06] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> You never know until you try.
[22:06] <13Chad`Winters> <Dias> Just think of it as the greatest challenge ever.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods, then holds up a fist. "There will be no walls in our path."
[22:07] <13Chad`Winters> 6Dias raises his fist. 1"None."
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> -END-
