* #pax-season6Session8TeamDarien is being logged
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-584.1.27
<DeathStar> Location: Spy HQ
<DeathStar> 6* Three days have passed and Erevis, still out of commission with her battle with John McCormick, is home currently, leaving the spy team down by one. Darien stands there as he glances at his Angels.
<Xanatos`Durran> I don't have to wear a dress do I? *he frowns*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Excuse me?
<Xanatos`Durran> Nothing. *he waves his hand casually*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Right...anyway...
<Setsuna`> ...I'm not even going to ask.
<DeathStar> 6 *Darien shakes his head. He brings up information on his computer screen of a scrawny man with glasses. "This man is called Dean X. A lame code name he thought up cleverly. He use to work for various government agencies for Earth until he vanished off the charts three months. But not before he stole some rather important files from all sectors, including Janus.
<Xanatos`Durran> Oh? *he quiets to listen*
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's just come to our attention that Dean X here is looking to sell the information he stole to the highest bidder. Naturally, we have all sorts of creeps and lowlifes after it. Including V.I.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> But of course.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I want us to be there for the bidding. I want those files. So... 6He looks at Cassandra. "You're going to go bidding with your two bodyguards." 6He notes to Xan and Setsuna.
<Xanatos`Durran> Woot for not talking. *he twirls his finger*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I think a new look is in order then.
<Setsuna`> "Sorry that you drew short straw, Cass."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And what sort of devilish looking outfits do you want? 6He asks with a grin.
<Xanatos`Durran> Can I be bald, yet keep my hair? *he tilts his head*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I was thinking more of changing my hair and face.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. "Alright. I can dig. And yes...you can be bald. Chip will set you up with the looks and styles you want, facial, hair, or outfit wise." 6He motions to Chip, who eagerly awaits them in the changing room.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I'm easy to fit...considering my body type.
* Xanatos`Durran gives Darien and thumbs up and moves over to Chip, patting him on the shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* The PAX symbol flashes. Within mere moments of our time, the three have been outfitted with their required looks. You may describe now.
* Xanatos`Durran stands there, bald and covered in tatoo's. His right eye is now solid white with a scar running vertically over it. "Do I look sexy?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You make me want to puke. 6He says to Xan.
<Xanatos`Durran> Good. That's what I was going for.
* Setsuna` is very much not-Setsuna looking. She seems a little taller, but it's probally the shoes, and the outfit is made to give her the appearance of a fuller figure. Her face is fairer, but harder, making her look a couple years older, and a lot more European. Not to mention her hair is a long partially bleached blonde.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien whistles. "Nice."
* Cassandra_Arakawa is sporting higher cheek bones and now has short blond hair. Her fashion is Euro bad girl chic. For the corrupt aristocrat turned would be world conqueror, nothing tops it off better than repressed white-leather domme.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods again. "And why are you two beauties hanging out with this man?" 6He asks, motioning to Xan.
* Setsuna` shrugs, "He'd be scary if he tried to do this look."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Definitely...
<Xanatos`Durran> I obey. *he says dismissevly*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes his head, then pulls out a briefcase, opening it and showing credits. He closes it. "This is your bid money. There's close to 750,000 credits here, so don't lose it."
<Xanatos`Durran> Then don't give it to me. *he steps back*
* Setsuna` looks to Cass with a glint in her eyes
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I'm so rich, I don't even have to carry my own money.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I've prepared a shuttle that should match your needs. Armed, yet a hint of rich deviance of evil.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Excellent.
<Xanatos`Durran> Did you paint flames on it?
<Xanatos`Durran> Or a skull?
<DeathStar> <Darien> ....
* Xanatos`Durran sighs. "You suck at this job." he moves off.
<Setsuna`> "Can he be the silent thug sort?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Did you get laid over the last three days, because this cheerfulness is sort of bordering on insanity.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Maybe he can be a mute...or a mute eunuch.
* Xanatos`Durran stops and looks at Darien. "I...I'm hurt by that comment."
<Setsuna`> "We might need some elective surgery for the later."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes his head, leading them to the hanger where a stylish shuttle is located, which reeks of authority.
<Setsuna`> "...this thing doesn't have the new car smell. It has the 'I payed to try to make this smell new' smell."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... hey!
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Whatever...
<Xanatos`Durran> Well. What's our location, Chief?
<Xanatos`Durran> NRP: Damnnit. Destination.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tosses Xan a datapad with the location and their new identity names (NRP: Which you guys can choose)
<Setsuna`> *shrugs* "It's appropiate."
* Xanatos`Durran is now known as Tiny
<Cassandra_Arakawa> NRP: lol
* Tiny catches it and moves up the ramp. "Sweet. I'm Tiny."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Named so on purpose.
* Cassandra_Arakawa laughs!
* Setsuna` just smirks
* Tiny look down at his penis. "Did Erevis tell you that I was so small that I couldn't even please a midget?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just shakes his head.
<Tiny> Cause I told her not to tell anyone...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just go. Now.
* Cassandra_Arakawa boards the shuttle.
<Tiny> You're no fun. *he moves in to sit down in the pilots seat.*
* Tiny starts up the shuttle, getting everything prepped.
* Setsuna` steps on board, trying to get the nerve to see the name chosen for her.
* Tiny memorizes the location and tosses the datapad back to Cass and Set.
* Cassandra_Arakawa catches the datapad and looks...
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Looks like tonight, I am Therese.
* Setsuna` takes a look. "...Scarlet? Well, that's not so bad."
<Tiny> Looks like I got the cool name. *he chuckles*
<DeathStar> NRP: *They sit in the hanger all session*
<Tiny> nRP: Oh snap.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Just get us out of here, Stumpy.
* Tiny pulls the shuttle up and zooms out. "It's Tiny damnit!"
<DeathStar> NRP: *whine whine whine* I want to be a pilot again. *Xan doesn't EVEN TAKE OFF!*
<Tiny> nRP: I never whined. I'm not Chad you know.
<DeathStar> 6* And so, they fly over toward the Europe sector for the meeting. They land over there in a few minues.
* Tiny whistles, powering down the shuttle, he opens the ramp. As the ramp begins to open he falls silent. Walking off of it, seemingly in an angry mood.
* Setsuna` steps off first. Guard should check things out, after all
<DeathStar> 6* They are in a crowded section of a European city. The meeting is suppose to take place nearby in a warehouse, which is about 5 blocks from their current location. Darien comes on the comm.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Looking good.
* Cassandra_Arakawa stands and then waits...fashionably late entrance and all...
* Tiny checks around to make sure it is clear before nodding back into the shuttle at therese.
* Cassandra_Arakawa steps out of the shuttle, dripping with an air of arrogance.
* Tiny nods to Scarlet as drops back to cover the rear.
* Setsuna` returns a very slight nod, and makes sure Lady Therese's path is clear to the meeting point.
<DeathStar> 6* As they approach the entrance to the warehouse, a guard is standing there, eyeing them as they approach.
* Cassandra_Arakawa doesn't even bother to look at the guard. He's beneath her notice afterall...
* Tiny watches Scarlet, since she will be doing the talking to the guard.
<DeathStar> 6* The guard watches her pass, then looks at the other two.
<Tiny> NRP: OH ignore my laast comment then.
* Tiny moves along with Therese, being her bodyguard and all.
<DeathStar> 6* As they pass the gates to the warehouse and move towards the door, a well dressed man holds up his hand. "Excuse me. This is a private meeting."
<Setsuna`> "We know."
<DeathStar> <Man> Oh? And who might you be? 6He asks Setsuna, turning to focus on her.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> What ahve I told you about speaking out of turn? Must I re-educate you...again?
<DeathStar> 6* The man looks at Cassandra now.
* Setsuna` looks to Cassandra, and steps aside.
* Tiny remains silent, standing behind Cass.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I am Therese von Geigerstadt. If I need to elaborate further, then you are obviously not in my social circle and I should not have to bother.
<DeathStar> <Man> Uh, well... 6He pauses, clearly put off by her forwardness. "I merely need to run a ID scan on you to see if you are who you are."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien speaks on the comms. in their ears. "I've already falsified records, Miss. Geigerstadt. Just give me a minute to upload them."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I trust this will be expedited.
<DeathStar> 6* The man nods, holding up a device to scan her face. He turns away, obviously looking through their records to locate her. About 30 seconds later, he turns around quickly. "Of course, Miss. Geigerstadt. Step right in." 6He opens the warehouse door.
* Setsuna` lets 'Therese' head in first
* Cassandra_Arakawa steps forward without another word or even glance to the man.
* Tiny moves in after Therese, he glares at the man menacingly.
<DeathStar> 6* As they step inside the warehouse, they would find several various groups standing around talking, with a platform set up and seats in front of it, for the authencity of bidding for the prized secrets.
<DeathStar> 6* The other bidders eyes Cassandra and her two men, as if sizing them up.
* Setsuna` just looks badass
* Tiny has himself in the mindset that he could kill anyone in the room, and it would show too.
* Cassandra_Arakawa finds her own place, gliding about effortlessly like the future queen...
* Tiny keeps close to Therese, obviously ready to break anyone's fingers that touches her.
<DeathStar> 6* Just as things are about to begin, the door opens and one list bidder walks in. Adam steps in, holding a briefcase, glancing around as he wears what appears to be a white suit to match his white hair. He begins to approach the seats.
<DeathStar> 6* The well dressed man moves up to the podium, with Dean X sitting off behind him. The man looks at everyone as they sit down. Adam sits down in the front row.
<DeathStar> <Man> Let us begin our bidding for these magnificent files. I will start the opening bid at 50,000 credits.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam, always impulsive, speaks up. "100,000 credits."
* Tiny sits by Therese. Observing Adam.
<DeathStar> 6* Another bid is announced. 120,000. 150,000. Adam speaks again for 200,000.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> A quarter million...
<DeathStar> 6* Adam whirls around to face CAssandra, squinting as he looks at her.
<DeathStar> <Adam> 300,000. 6He says bluntly.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> I'm not liking this. What are the chances he can identify you, Cassandra?
<DeathStar> <Man> Anyone else? 6He asks, glancing at the others.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* My facial structure at the frame level has been altered...he'd have to dig out my brain tissue to be sure.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> We have a problem.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* What?
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> I just identified a Janus shuttle in the area. They might be in there to interrupt the bidding. We need those files first.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* How high up can I go?
* Tiny looks around, to get a location of the files.
<Tiny> NRP: 750k
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> 750 is how much you have, but if you think you fake out more, go for it.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> 400,000
<DeathStar> <Adam> ... 450... 6He says quickly, as if annoyed.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> For the world...let's say half a million.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam leans back. Murmurs can be heard, waiting to see if Adam responds. Adam narrows his eyes a bit, glancing at Dean X, then back at Cassandra
<DeathStar> <Adam> 600,000. 6He says with triumph, as if that'll end the bidding.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Hmmmph. The gall. 650,000.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam twitches. He leans back in his seat, not speaking up. The countdown begins and it's sold to Cassandra for 650,000 credits.
<DeathStar> 6* Dean X looks very pleased. The crowd of people begin to stand up and shift, obviously getting ready to leave.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands, staring at Cassandra, his face contorting in anger.
* Setsuna` eyes the discontent crowd
* Tiny stands and moves with Cass so that he can protect her from any danger.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> When I game...it is always to win.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam begins to approach her. "I don't know who you are, but---"
* Tiny steps between Adam and Therese.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eyes Tiny.
<Tiny> Move it along, mate. *he says in a thick accent*
* Cassandra_Arakawa doesn't even spare Adam a second glance now that the bidding is over. She's just better than he is.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam fumes as Dean X and the man walk over. "If we can see your credits, we can make the exchange."
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns to look at the door. His eyes widen.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Chad Winters busts into the room, throwing a knife at Adam, who catches it.
<DeathStar> 6* In the background, Spade busts in, having used another background entrance.
* Cassandra_Arakawa snaps her fingers.
* Tiny moves over, pullinng Cass with him. "Please make the exchange m'lady."
<DeathStar> 6* Dean X is startled as Janus busts in.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Oh goddammit, is that Chad ?
<Tiny> Yes. *he hisses low into the comm*
<DeathStar> 6* Chad aims his gun at Adam, who stands there next to the three.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> ...make the exchange now. We are obviously on a tiem budget.
<DeathStar> 6* Dean X nods. They take Cass' money and hand over the files.
* Cassandra_Arakawa nods and proceeds to make her exit.
* Tiny moves after her.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam stands there, eyeing both Janus aiming their weapons at him. "Goddammit"
<DeathStar> 6* Chad aims a second hand gun at Cassandra.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam aims a weapon at Chad and one at Spade.
* Tiny slides in between Chad and his gun aimed at Therese, he has his own gun trained on him.
<Tiny> Make you're exit. M'lady.
* Setsuna` takes a position between the door and Chad, pistol ready so she can cover 'Therese'
* Cassandra_Arakawa proceeds on to the door, ignoring Chad and Spade.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Let them go. Adam's our target.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm so pleased I'm loved here.
<DeathStar> <Chad> It seems we're at an impasse.
<DeathStar> 6* Chad aims both his weapons back on Adam.
* Tiny slides out with Therese and Scarlet.
<DeathStar> 6* Cassandra, Tiny, and Setsuna are able to escape now.
* Cassandra_Arakawa heads right for the shuttle.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Get us out of here.
* Setsuna` takes her aim off of Chad, and vacates with the others
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> This is bad. Very bad.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* What is it now?
* Tiny moves quickly with her. "I'm on it." He breaks into a jog, so he can have the shutttle ready for them.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Spade can pick up on thoughts. If he picked up any stray thoughts from either of you three, he'll know who you really are.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Let's go.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* And I know that I didn't break character...even mentally.
<DeathStar> 6* They reach their shuttle unmolested.
<Tiny> Comm: I'm tiny. *he preps the shuttle and waits for them to board*
* Cassandra_Arakawa boards the shuttle.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Were we able to get any technical data on that psionic damper from a few days back?
* Tiny waits till Setsuna boards, lifting the shuttle and blasting off toward HQ.
<Setsuna`> *comm* Well, I stayed in character too, so we should be safe.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Not much. From what I can find out, it was some sort of chip that was placed in a person. However, Janus never perfected it and was considered hazardous to use. As in, fatal.
<Tiny> <Comm> John sure is a thinker. *he notes dryly*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Pity...was hoping that we could adapt it as a blocker against any future psi intrusions.
* Tiny zooms closer to HQ. "Be there in a minute, Chief." He says over the comm.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Tiny. Did your mind slip at any point near Spade?
<Setsuna`> *comm* I'm honestly not sure what I'd do if I could get my hands on something like that.
<Tiny> Comm: Nope. I'm more professional than that..
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* LEt's keep our fingers crossed then. We have the files, regardless.
* Tiny lands the shuttle in HQ and powers it down. "Home Sweet Home."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps out to meet them. "Good work, everyone. I'm impressed."
* Tiny is now known as Xanatos`Durran
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Here are the files. *holds them up*
<Xanatos`Durran> We even managed to save some of the cash.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, taking the suitcase and motioning to Chip. "Go through these for us. Find out what's there." 6He sends Chip on his way.
<Xanatos`Durran> Wait...we need to change appearance.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, I think you all look so good in those looks, I'll let you keep them for the weekend!
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Night all
* Setsuna` just looks at Darien
<Cassandra_Arakawa> NRP: Ack!
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL!
<Setsuna`> NRP: *laughs*
* Xanatos`Durran narrows his eyes. "I'll scare the shit out of Erevis, and we both know that wont be good."
* Xanatos`Durran waves bye to Cass.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien motions for them to go get changed. "Fine, fine. Good night."

* #pax-season6Session8TeamErusian is being logged
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-584.1.27
<DeathStar> Location: Erusian Science Frigate - Meeting Room
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands, having been working 3 days straight to decipher the information given to them on Itosis. He has a galactic map spread out with markers placed. He looks as if he hasn't slept in ages, as his stubble tells.
* Arhn has since made sure the Itosian officer has been paid...
* `Cole sits there, a blank facee.
<Rylon> 2Ry was helping Warren of course, looking over the information boredly. 14"Maybe you outta get some sleep?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Later. 6He says, preparing his briefing when everyone settles in.
* Rylon shrugs, sitting down.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Alright, most of the information given to us by the Itosis government was useless. 6He speaks, turning to look at them, looking much like he did when he was security chief - taking charge. "However, there were a few points of interest."
<Rylon> 14"Those are?
* `Cole listens perking up at the sound of intereting things.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren points to one of the red markers. "There was the sighing of Black Angel here, that we know about. It destroyed the entire system."
<Rylon> 14"Yes..the question is..where is it going?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren brings his finger to another marker, a system of space that has not been explored by the Erusian worlds before.
<DeathStar> <Warren> 2 years prior, there was a system here that mysterious vanished over night. The Itosis people did trading there and found it in ruins. The patterns of destruction match Black Angel.
<Rylon> 14"So ..that is our next lead?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren holds up his hand, moving to a third marker. "3 years ago, there use to be a colony here that the Tsivrixsh were setting up. Though they would deny it, it was utterly wiped out in a similar method as Black Angel. Itosis knows since they were going to set up trade there with the Tsivrixsh."
<Rylon> 2He begins to rub his chin. 14"I see..The colony..the system..and then the recent.."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren then begins to make a motion. It's a curved line from one point to the next.
<`Cole> What's the next system in it's path?
* Rylon follows the line, trying to judge the next place of attack.
<DeathStar> 6* It comes down to one of three possible systems. Two of them are Tsivrixsh, one is Cartel.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Since it doesn't hit every system, it could be any of those three.
<Rylon> 14"So it hits eith the Cartel, or our favorite blue friends"
<Rylon> *either*
<`Cole> Should we even risk going to Tsiv space?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I don't know. We also don't know how long it will take Black Angel to arrive in any of these places.
<Rylon> 14"Chances are she has realized this pattern..and is taking measures in those 2 systems"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren leans against the wall. "If Black Angel does hit those two systems, you're looking at a possible war with the Tsivrixsh."
<`Cole> So what do we do?
<Rylon> 14"Stop it"
<`Cole> How? *he asks Ry*
<Rylon> 14"Yeah see..I havn't personally seen the damn thing..so I really don't know"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren glances at Arhn. "What now?"
<Arhn> We need access to the Progenitor space platform...
<Rylon> 14"First we need to find it's current location"
<Arhn> And then what?
<Rylon> 14"Finding it is by itself a hard task..then what comes later"
<`Cole> Shoot thingns at it. *he waves his hand*
<Rylon> 14"Waste of ammo"
<Arhn> I mean...the Erus Ascendancy...has a Progenitor space platform.
<DeathStar> <Warren> So we have to go back to Erusia?
<Rylon> 14"..is it..like the black angel?
* `Cole just listens.
<Arhn> No, its a space station.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Can this platform defeat Black Angel?
<Arhn> Not directly...after the Progenitors left, it was used to house the Galactic Council...in a different age than this. Anyway...it may have some means of locating or even redirecting the Black Angel.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods. "Where is the platform?"
<Rylon> 14"and the guarentees it would even..work?"
<Arhn> None. However, it is a chance to escape from ignorance. The platform is in the Erus Ascendancy...cloaked within the nearby nebula.
* Rylon rubs his face. 14"What planet?"
<Arhn> Its not over a planet...we kept it in deep space. I confess...its one of the...Yloi secrets.
<Rylon> 14"What ELSE is new"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Is there anything we need to get on this platform first?
<`Cole> No Meyr i'd assume.
<Arhn> It is considered a sacred place...so there are certain rituals that must be observed.
<Rylon> 14"I don't like this it at all..all these..ancient things..and no means to access it..nor control it"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Rituals. Which I guess means we have to go to Erusia first to get those rituals in place?
<Rylon> 14"Rituals ugh..must we?"
<`Cole> I don't have to get naked do I?
<Arhn> Yes, we have to return for the rituals.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves out to let the bridge now, leaving the three behind.
<`Cole> ...*yawns* So. What kind of Rituals?
<Rylon> 14"Boring ones"
<`Cole> ...Explain.
<Arhn> Purification rituals.
<`Cole> Purification....
<Rylon> 14"..it's a spacestation..not a...temple"
<Arhn> A sacred place, regardless.
* `Cole frownns. "Do I have to get naked?"
<DeathStar> 6* The room is strangely empty since Warren left, even though there were at least two minor crew members inside doing some cleaning.
<Arhn> ...do you?
<Rylon> 2He rubs his chin. 14"Do you notice something out of place?"
<`Cole> That's what I'm asking!
<DeathStar> 6* A cleaning bucket is nearby, having been left behind.
* Rylon stands up, moving over to the bucket.
<DeathStar> 6* There appears to be something just under the cleaning fluid.
<Arhn> I do not know...I have never undergone these rituals before.
* `Cole watches Ry.
<Rylon> 14"....!" 2He moves to grab the cleaning bucket, and toss it out into the hallway..spilling it's contents.
<DeathStar> 6* The bucket crashes out in the hallway.
<Arhn> What?!
<DeathStar> 6* And splashes Warren, who stands there.
* `Cole arches a brow.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ...
* Rylon glances inside the bucket once more, checking the object inside.
<DeathStar> 6* It was a brush
<`Cole> NRP: LOL
* `Cole blinks at Ry. "You ok?"
<Rylon> 14"Ah hell..false alarm apparantly.."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren wipes his face clean of fluid, looking very unhappy.
<Rylon> 14"uhh...sorry..looked like a bomb inside"
* Arhn raises a brow.
<`Cole> And I thought I was paranoid.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ...
<Rylon> 14"Maybe it's an explosive brush?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... No.
<`Cole> Explosive enough to tackle any evil germs! *he says with a smirk*
<Rylon> 14"Shut up you.."
<Arhn> Ahem...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps in, dripping wet as he moves over. "I changed our course to head back to Erusia."
* Rylon rubs his chin. 14"I doubt you'll like the situation there.."
<`Cole> What?
<Rylon> 14"It's gotten progressively worse..personally I'm not looking forward to going back to Erusia"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Progressively worse how? We've only been gone a few weeks.
<`Cole> God you two and your pissy ass planet. *he sighs*
<Arhn> Some people with too small matters ont heir minds...
<Rylon> 14"A few weeks and alot of things change..according to the military..there has been multiple appeals to the council..and each one ignored. The distress spread across more of the community, more Myhr are getting irritated..sections of the military now refuse to act..and support for the factions..after that seems to be on a steady rise."
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... 6He glances at Arhn for her reaction
* `Cole shakes his head.
<Arhn> I see...
<DeathStar> <Warren> Excuse us a moment. 6He takes Arhn by the arm, apparantly unconcerned with her status, and leads her out of the room and down the hallway to a quiet area.
* `Cole looks to Ry. "Your planet sucks.
<Rylon> 14"..I don't think it does"
<Arhn> ...what is it?
<DeathStar> <Warren> The way Rylon is speaking, it sounds like civil war is about to break out. What are the chances the Yloi are going to meet the Myhr demands?"
<Arhn> I do not know...as I am currently not a member of the council...I have no idea what they will do.
* `Cole smirks. "Course not."
<Rylon> 14"And actually planets..theres quite a few in the Ascendancy"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Arhn, your planet is about to get very rough. And you're already being targetted by someone in this whole mess. ... What do you think of the myhrs wanting more power? Why don't you make them equals.
<`Cole> Whatever. Just more bickering too me. Too many secrets and too much pride.
<Arhn> You on Earth have an expression...ignorance is bliss...yes?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren licks his lips once, standing there. "That saying is very outdated, Arhnya." 6He says, reverting to her last name for once. "And personaly, I'd rather know all the facts." 6He turns and walks off, leaving her in the hallway.
<Arhn> ..wait...I am not finished...ther eis more to it than just that...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns to look back at Arhn.
<Arhn> The expression is apt...because...the Yloi know too much...and in the knowing, we find ourselves unable to enjoy life. We feel the eight of a universe upon our shoulders. We were the officers of the ancients...our telepathic forebearers wired into the ships of the line...fleets acting like a single organism...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren listens to her calmly.
<Arhn> And when we lost that telepathy...we panicked...we lost control...and reacted badly...awakanening any number of leftover horrors from the ancient wars...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps forward, looking at Arhn. "I understand. But it's time things changed, Arhn. People in your government aren't ready to let go of the responsibility and give it to the Mhyr equally. But it's going to lead to the Yloi fighting the Mhyr if this keeps up. You, of all people, should understand how important it is to share responsibility.
<Arhn> Let the Myhr live their lives and let us to our purgatory. We are like the..princesses in the tower of your fairy tales...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grabs her by both shoulders, giving her a shake. "We're talking Civil War, Arhn! If that happens, you could lose all your lives. The Mhyr outnumber the Yloi!"
<Arhn> I...know...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren whirls around, clearly frustrated, rubbing the lower part of his face.
<Rylon> 14"My father believed in one thing" 2A voice suddenly chimed in from behind them, as Ry approached..both hands sliding into his pockets. 14"He wanted us all to be Erusians..no Yloi..No Myhr, he wanted people to share the responsibility..rather then ignore it..he wanted them to co exist..rather then constantly remain on 2 different levels. He was killed for it"
<Arhn> I know that is not what you wanted to hear...but...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks up at Rylon as he steps up. "Excuse me." 6He says to them both, turning around to leave. He exits the hallway quickly.
<Rylon> 2Glances over at Warren. 14"Stay..I want you to hear this too"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren ignores him, stepping out of the hallway, clearly having all he can stand for the day.
<Rylon> 2Sighs shaking his head. 14"He was not a violent man, he believed such a right should be faught for peacefully..rather then violence. The fact is, the Council will listen to you..You might be able to stop this..I don't want to see a single person die..I've taken enough life..I don't want to take my own blood because of a civil war"
<Arhn> ...I will see...what I can do...
<Rylon> 14"Don't see..do. Myhr..No..I refuse to use that now. Erusians should share such burdens, fighting side by side. Erusians do not want to be in a dream world, they want the facts of reality..rather then being stuck in some illusion..they want to be right there when things go wrong. They are willing to die for it, if this is ignored..then there will no longer be an Erusian society..but 2 seperate 2
<Rylon> 2 culters..fighting a pointless battle for what?" 2
<Arhn> For the galaxy.
<Rylon> 14"For the galaxy, it is a vast place..you nor I have the right to be called it's protectors..we are not so. If you honostly believe that a civil war should happen..simple because you want to keep this burden to yourself..then congradulations..you truely arn't the person I thought you were..you will take that path alone "
<Arhn> I will go before the council then...
<Rylon> 14"Thank you Arhn..from the bottom of my heart" 2He bows toward her, before moving out of the room.
<DeathStar> 6* Arhn is now alone again in the hallway.
* Arhn then moves for her quarters.

<DeathStar> Location: Apartment Complex
<DeathStar> 6* Since the transfer, Chad Winters has been around less and less. However, on this day off for the engineers, Sera/Kane have their first chance to interact with Chad since he left...
<DeathStar> 6* It is currently early morning.
<`Kane> NRP: How many days has it been?
* Seraphna hugs a pillow
<DeathStar> NRP: 3.
* Chad`Winters sits in his apartment, his holotv on infront of him, the news on.
* `Kane is sitting up on the bed, wearing only some night pants, he yawns and rubs his face.
* Chad`Winters eyes the time the looks at the wall, he then goes back to watching tv.
* `Kane stands and moves over to brush his teeth and starts to get dressed and all of that morning stuff.
* Chad`Winters stands up and moves over to his kitchen and begins to make something to snack on quickly.
* `Kane moves out of the bathroom and starts a pot of coffee. "Sera. Wake up." He says as he pulls a shirt on over his well developed chest.
<`Kane> NRP: That was for you DS.
* Seraphna groans and rolls over, "Sleepy!"
* `Kane tosses her clothes at her, pouring two cups of coffee.
* Chad`Winters takes his drink, slamming it down. He moves over to his couch and sits down.
* Seraphna grumbles nd sits up, pulling her hair out of her face, "Alright..."
<`Kane> I had hoped we could spend the day with Chad. Being as you're dying for some siblinig interaction. *he smirks, drinking his coffee*
* Seraphna gets dressed, yawning, "Mmmm... sounds good."
* Chad`Winters suddenly looks around as if sensing evil.
* `Kane hands her her coffee and sits his empty cup down. "I'll be catching him before he goes." He steps out with a wink to her. Moving over to knock on Chad's dooor.
* Chad`Winters looks over at his door, cursing silently to himself as he walks over to it.
* Seraphna goes to brush out her hair, having let it grow down to her rear over the last few months, she plays with the blue streak
* `Kane just waits for Chad to openn the door.
* Chad`Winters sighs defeated and unlocks the door, opening it.
<`Kane> Mornin.
<Chad`Winters> Yes it is. *he moves to shut the door*
* `Kane steps his foot in the door. "Why don't you come and spend the day with us?'
<Chad`Winters> I'm sure I have a full day's worth of paper shuffling ahead of me.
* Seraphna fixes her shirt and rolls her eyes, changing into something more comforterable, finally hopping around the place looking for some socks.
<`Kane> Hmph. Why don't you stop acting like such an asshole and lighten up? You're stuck with us. Just get used to it. It'll make it alot easier.
<Chad`Winters> You just want to see the life get sucked out of me.
* Seraphna finally puts on some sandal-shoes and peeks outside
<Chad`Winters> ...*lets out a sigh of defeat* Fine...
<DeathStar> 6* A hand grabs Sera's mouth and shoves her back in her room. Adam stands there, aiming a gun at her.
* `Kane steps back into the hall.
<`Kane> nRP: Kane wouldn't see. Right?
* Seraphna freezes, looing frightened
<DeathStar> 6* Adam closes the door behind him and locks it, keeping it trained on Sera. "My reaction time is inhuman, so don't try your Dragoon shit on me."
<DeathStar> NRP: Right
<Seraphna> "What do you want?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> I have a bidding to get to later, but lately your Janus people have become a real pain in my ass. Your little ex-lover Spade is hunting my organization down like dogs.
* `Kane steps over to the door and knocks, "Come'on Sera, we're going."
<Seraphna> "Andw hat do you think I can do about it?"
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, I'm thinking you can send a little message to him for me.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam eyes the door briefly, his eyes moving off Sera.
* `Kane moves to open the door, he sees it is locked. He arches a brow and knocks againn. "Sera! What'd you lock the door for?"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns back around to face Sera.
<Chad`Winters> ...*steps outside and looks at Kane* ...The door's locked?
* Seraphna rushes him when he loses his focus, going for the gun.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam loses the gun, but he sends a bionic kick for her back.
* Seraphna lets him, punching at his face at the same time.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Wow that's a stretch.
* `Kane glances at Chad. "This is odd.."
* Chad`Winters narrows his eyes and moves to the door and bangs on it.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam is hit, slamming against the door. He roars in anger. "You little BITCH."
<`Kane> NRP: We would hear that, right?
<`Kane> NRP: :D
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Yeah..
* Seraphna moves into a kick, eyes slightkly unfocused
<DeathStar> 6* Adam grabs her foot, then tries to throw her back across the room.
<Chad`Winters> ...What the...*he kicks steps back then dashes forward, slamming into the door*
* `Kane eyes the thud, he fishes around in his pockets for his keys.
* Seraphna lets him once more, directing her paht, grabbing the gun as she does, rolling to turn it on him.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam steers, then tosses out two objects at her.
* Seraphna fires and laps out fo thier path at the same time
* Chad`Winters hops back and then pulls his leg back and kicks right into the door latch with all his power.
<`Kane> We'll need to hit it at the same time. One, two, Three! *runs in to hit the door*
<DeathStar> 6* A datapad lands on the couch, as well as a candy bar. Behind Adam the door breaks open. He vanishes in a blink of light, appearing out in the road as he lands in front of a car, hit by it.
* Chad`Winters twists his body as one of Sera's shots flies by him.
* `Kane moves over to Sera "Are you alright, What happened??"
<DeathStar> 6* Adam rolls to his feet and blinks out of existence again.
* Chad`Winters looks around their room, a look of disgust on his face.
<Seraphna> "That guy... who helped attack dad was here."
<`Kane> ...Are you ok?
<Seraphna> "Yeah... I disarmed him, he said he wanted me to deliever some message..."
* `Kane glances at the datapad and candy bar.
<Chad`Winters> ...*shakes his head then looks around the room again, getting a picture of what happened*.
<DeathStar> 6* The datapad and candy bar look back.
<Chad`Winters> Why is there a datapad and a candy bar laying about....They seem out of place.
<`Kane> ....They weren't there just a second ago.
* Chad`Winters moves over to the datapad and picks it up, eyeing it.
<DeathStar> 6* It's a civilian type datapad, though it's obviously upgraded.
* `Kane brushes his hand on Sera's face. Obviously checking over her to make sure she is ok.
* Seraphna looks up to him softly, smiling, "I'm fine."
<Chad`Winters> ....Why would he leave this behind...*he turns it around checking it out visually. He then turns it on.
<DeathStar> 6* It requires a login and password.
* `Kane nods. Smiling at her, he stands and looks at Chad. "What's it say?"
<Chad`Winters> Hack it. *he tosses it at Kane*
* Chad`Winters moves over to the candybar and eyes it.
<DeathStar> 6* It's a popular brand of candybar.
<Chad`Winters> ...Did he drops this candybar?
<Seraphna> "Looks like it."
<`Kane> ...What is the name of the candy bar?
* `Kane catches the datapad too. :S
<Chad`Winters> ...Why would he have a candy bar with him tho...*he twirls it around in his finger*
* `Kane puts in the name of the candy bar as the login, then uses the brand as tthe password.
<Chad`Winters> Hyper Chocobar...
<DeathStar> 6* Nothing.
* `Kane puts hyper in the username, and chocobar as the password.
<DeathStar> 6* Nothing.
* Seraphna sighs and fixes her shirt, stretching a bit to get the pain out of her back
<Seraphna> "May I?"
* `Kane just gives it to Sera.
<Chad`Winters> How'd he escape?
* Chad`Winters tosses the candy bar to the side and stands up scratching the back of his head. He moves over to the window and looks outside, seeing a damaged car in the road.
<DeathStar> 6* When the candy bar lands on the side, it begins to let out a high pitched sound this time.
* `Kane shrugs. "The window wasn't op..." He holds his ears. "Get rid of it chad!"
* Chad`Winters twinges and he punches a hole in the window then dashes over to the candy bar and grabs it, hurling it through the broken window.
<`Kane> ...You could have opened it....
<DeathStar> 6* The candy bar explodes right at the window, taking out the entire wall and throwing debris at the three.
* `Kane moves in front of Sera, shielding her from Debri.
* Chad`Winters twists his back and ducks his head as debris slams into his back.
* Seraphna eeks and ducks
* Chad`Winters grunts in pain as he falls to his knees. He shirt torn from the debris that hit it.
<DeathStar> 6* Afterwards, silence, except for sounds of people in the other rooms moving about to see what happened.
* Seraphna uncurls to check on the boys, "You two okay...?"
* `Kane urcks as he is hit, falling but catching himself over Sera. His shirt is ripped as well, with cuts in his back, even a piece of glass. "Fine."
* Chad`Winters stands up, rubbing the back of his neck, he sighs and pulls off his shirt, his tactical suit underneath it.
* Seraphna grabs her datapad, calling a medical team.
<Seraphna> "You're hurt Kane..."
* `Kane waves Sera off.
<Chad`Winters> Get into that datapad now Sera.
* `Kane pulls the glass out of his back, his face only twinging slightly in pain.
<`Kane> I'm fine. Crack open that Datapad.
<Chad`Winters> This was Adam wasn't it...
* Seraphna takes it and quickly starts working, typing away at inhuman speeds, working out a password.
<Seraphna> "Yes. That's his name."
<`Kane> Yeah. *he moves to to wrap himself up*
<DeathStar> 6* Medical teams arrive shortly as Seraphna works, as does Spade. He steps inside, looking around at the room with a tight look to his face. By the time Kane is fully examined, as well as Chad and Sera, Sera cracks the password.
* `Kane stands beside Sera, peering down at the datapad.
<DeathStar> <Spade> What happened here?
* Chad`Winters looks over at Spade. 1"It was Adam..."
* Seraphna looks through teh datapad, "Adam."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade clearly is not pleased, turning to look around the damaged room. "Did he do anything besides blow up the wall?"
<`Kane> Left this. *motions to the datapad*
<Chad`Winters> Sera give Spade the datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade walks over to retrieve the datapad.
* `Kane crosses his arms. "What does it say?"
<DeathStar> <Spade> I'm afraid I'm not at a liberty to discuss it. Thank you for your trouble. You and Sera make sure to get your wounds looked at. Chad, I need you with me to go over some paperwork you need to do. 6He steps out through the hole in the wall.
* Seraphna gives it to him, shivering a little, "Yes, William..."
<Chad`Winters> Great...more desk work...*he sighs and follows after Spade*
<Seraphna> "He specifically wanted me to deliver it to you."
<Seraphna> "Adam is targetting you."
* `Kane sighs. His eye moves to Sera, before he moves over to get a new shirt.
<Seraphna> "Are you really going to keep us in the dark? He's going to come back again..."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances back at Sera, then looks ahead. "I'll deal with this." 6He steps out and begins to move away from the room, turning to Chad. "This is Adam's agenda. He's scheduled to be at some sort of bidding thing right now. If we can go there and nab him, we might learn about Eve's whereabouts.
<Seraphna> "He did mention that..."
<Chad`Winters> It's a trap obviously...
* Chad`Winters walks along with Spade.
* Seraphna looks to Kane, "We're gonna need a new wall or a new home."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Maybe, maybe not. But we can't pass up on this one. 6He moves down the stairs to ground level, then heads over to a shuttle.
* `Kane nods his head. "I'm sure Spade will have it taken care of. Eventually."
* Chad`Winters walks towards the shuttle beside Spade. 1"Of course not. I'll get what we need to know one way or another."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade hops onto the shuttle, motioning to the back where a weapon's rack is located. "Grab anything you need." 6He motions for the pilot to take off, glancing back at the house one more time, his eyes studying the damaged wall.
* Chad`Winters moves to the weapons rack staring at it.
<Seraphna> "Let's move into my apartment... I'll need your help clearing it out though..."
<`Kane> ...You always were the messy one out of the relationship. *he says with a smile*
<Seraphna> "Well ummm..."
* Chad`Winters reaches up grabbing several smaller types of grenades. He then grabs two guns, hooking their holsters onto his suit.
<DeathStar> 6* The shuttle lifts off and flies away, leaving Kane and Sera alone again with tons of people moving about their room.
<`Kane> Hmmm? *ignoring the people*
* Seraphna just starts busying herself with packing the valuables and her clothes, "You'll see."
<Chad`Winters> If their bidding on something, I'm sure it's stolen Janus technology...
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Wow, she wasn't ready to move out.
* `Kane eyes her. Loading up a simple suitcase, he doesn't keep much these days, just clothing and his datapad.
<Seraphna> "It's on the other side of Chad's place, of course."
<`Kane> I know. But is it a mess? *he glannces at her*
<Chad`Winters> Am I going to have any back-up?
<Seraphna> "No..."
* Seraphna heads out and over to it.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Yes. 6He grabs a gun of his own, sizing it up.
* `Kane pulls up his suitcase, moving behind Seraa.
<Chad`Winters> Good....
<DeathStar> 6* The shuttle zooms toward Europe.
* Seraphna opesn teh door to her place, the slightly large suite has a large living room, which is currently occupied by three weapons, one extremely large.
<Seraphna> "My side project..."
<`Kane> Your. What? *observes them*
<Seraphna> *One looks like an oversized handgun, the next a large rifle of some sort, then a rifle that seems a lot liek the one her dragoon form uses, only larger.
<DeathStar> 6* The shuttle arrives in a Europeon city after a few minutes of travel. The shuttle drops off near the checkpoint listed in Adam's agenda, letting Spade and Chad drop off to ground level.
* `Kane just eyes them. "I'm sorry but. Are you planning for a war or something?"
* Chad`Winters leaps out of the shuttle, landing in a crouch.
<Seraphna> "No... I've just needed to stretch out a little, and after dad got shot well..."
* `Kane eyes her. Then shrugs. "I guess."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade eyes a warehouse, seeing one sentry on street level. He motions to him for Chad to see.
* Seraphna picks up the rifle and tosses it to him, it's a bit heavy, a bit bulky, but easy to hold
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Yeah cuz bulky is easy to hold...
* Chad`Winters glances over then holds a finger down.
* `Kane eyes it for a moment, observing it lightly. "I..uhh.'
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances around, then motions for Chad to drop him. He begins to move around to find another way into the warehouse.
<Seraphna> "You prefer rifles right? That's a dual pulse chamber assault rifle..."
* `Kane nods. "Yes, and it is lovely. But I prefer something...lighter. Easy to move about for a quicker fire." He frowns, not wanting to hurt her feelings.
* Seraphna smiles, "Okies... I think I'll give it to Zephyr as a present then."
* Chad`Winters studies the man then pulls out a small blade from his wrist. He then hurls it across the street at an ally beside the man.
* `Kane nods. "I'm sure she'll like that."
* Seraphna giggles a bit and puts the handgun away, the rifle however is far too alrge for either of them to jsut hold
<DeathStar> 6* The man turns his head when he hears the noise.
* Chad`Winters pulls out another dagger and hurls it aiming for the back of the mans neck.
<DeathStar> 6* The man falls over dead.
* Chad`Winters dashes across the street sliding upto the man. He grabs him and tosses him over his shoulder and carries him to the ally tossing him in a neary dumpster.
<DeathStar> <Spade on Comm> I'm moving in on the back entrance. We'll do a pince attack - you enter from the front.
* Chad`Winters taps his ear. 1"Understood. 1He steps out of the ally and heads along the front of the building towards the front entrance.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: BAKA!
<DeathStar> 6* Chad reaches the front of the building. He can hear the sound of movement inside.
<Seraphna> "I'm okay with absorbing a weapon into my form when I change back... but I haven't quite gotten how to do it outside a transofrmation..."
* Chad`Winters slips another blade into his hand and holds it at the entrance to look at it's reflection inside.
* `Kane nods his head. "I understand. Perhaps you don't have that ability?"
<DeathStar> 6* The door opens right on Chad and he's faced with 10 something rich looking villains.
<Seraphna> "Ehhh... I think it's more the lockout... if I can absorb when I'm shifted..."
* Chad`Winters stands there, hiding the blade in his han.
* Chad`Winters then launches into the midst of them jamming a blade into one of the guys throats and kicking out into the other guys.
<DeathStar> 6* They walk around Chad, obviously unconcerned with him. They walk away, as if disappointed. Inside, he can see a few more people, including Adam who is talking to some blonde looking Euro hussy, her bald henchman, and another blonde.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Scratch that then.
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Heh
* `Kane nods and moves over to hug her. "All in time. You have this power thing going on. It worries me."
* Seraphna blinks and hugs back, "What do you mean...?"
* Chad`Winters leans against the wall waiting for them to leave. He then glances inside, eyeing the situation.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam turns his head enough to spot Chad. His eyes widen.
* Chad`Winters tisks then dashes inwards, hurling a blade towards Adam.
<`Kane> Constantly striving to become powerful. What for? What does it matter how strong you are? Strength is measured in more things than big guns.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam catches the knife.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade busts in on the other side, aiming at Adam from behind.
<Seraphna> "It's... an improvement... it's like my drive to design new machines... I just... I have this urge to upgrade..."
<`Kane> And what when you reach your limit?
* Chad`Winters glances at the remaining people studying their faces for a second. He then pulls out one of the guns aiming it towards Adam.
<DeathStar> 6* The remaining people continue to stand there, looking frozen in place.
<DeathStar> 6* An exchange is suddenly made between the blonde and a scrawny looking man - they seem to be exchanging briefcases.
<DeathStar> 6* The blonde then begins to head for the exit.
<DeathStar> 6* followed by her two goons.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade comes up, keeping his weapon trained on Adam, who seems to be pinned. He looks at Chad and then at Spade.
* Chad`Winters pulls out his other gun aiming it towards the blonde.
<DeathStar> 6* Adam whips out a gun and aims one at Chad and one at Spade.
* Chad`Winters holds his gun at the two not moving.
<Seraphna> "I don't know..."
<DeathStar> 6* The bald man steps in front of Chad's gun, protecting the blonde. He has his own gun trained on Chad now
* Seraphna sighs and looks down, "I just want to be teh best I can..."
<DeathStar> <Bald Man> Make your exit, m'lady.
* `Kane just chuckles. "Reminds me of the old earthgov slogans."
<DeathStar> 6* The other blonde takes another defensive position, ready to aim her own weapon at Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* The main blonde continues her exit.
<Chad`Winters> It seems we're at an impasse...
<Seraphna> "I guess I believe in it..."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Let them go. Adam's our target.
<DeathStar> <Adam> I'm so pleased I'm loved here.
* Chad`Winters trains his other gun back on Adam.
<`Kane> I think that you try too much. And your work yourself too much.
<DeathStar> 6* The three escape, as does everyone else, leaving only Adam, Chad, and Spade.
* Seraphna sighs and leans against him, "Yeah..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well...how's this going to go down, boys?
<Chad`Winters> That's up for you to decide.
* `Kane chuckles and hugs her, comforting her.
<Seraphna> "I... I wanna fight though... I don't like how Spade and Chad are on thier own right now..."
<DeathStar> <Adam> Well, as much as I would love a showdown...not today. 6He goes to do something when Spade shoots him directly in the head, sending him crashing to the ground.
<`Kane> You you're saying we should stop being engineers and become secret Janus agents too?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade rushes over toward Adam, kicking his guns away. "You can teleport." 6He states bluntly.
* Chad`Winters walks over to him, his guns still trained on ihm.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade takes his gun and smashes it into Adam's face, rendering him unconscious.
<Chad`Winters> Teleporter? I didn'tk now that was perfected yet.
<DeathStar> <Spade> It's not. It's very deadly to organic beings. But Adam here... 6He reaches over and takes a knife, cutting into Adam's skin past the blood to show the wires underneath. "Has a bionic body."
<Chad`Winters> ...Any idea where the teleporters located on him so we can disable it now?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade shakes his head. "No. It could be anywhere inside that body of his."
<Chad`Winters> Then we need to keep him disabled until we get back to the base.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Agreed. I'll have him placed in a maximum security cell and we'll interrogate him. Find out where Eve is kept.
<DeathStar> Time Jump: Later...
<DeathStar> Location: The Apartment Complex
<DeathStar> 6* Chad arrives back at the complex after finishing paperwork, Spade with him.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Your dad says he wants to see you tomorrow, to check up on you. He knows about the reassignment.
<Chad`Winters> Is he disapointed?
<DeathStar> <Spade> I do not know. 6He tells Chad. "Are you disappointed of your change in careers?"
<DeathStar> (in)
* Chad`Winters tisks. 1"Something tells me Adam wanted back in this base...."
<DeathStar> <Spade> I would not be surprised. 6He stands there, then looks at Chad. "Get some sleep. The next few days will be tense." 6He turns to walk off again.
* Seraphna catches Spade, running over to him, "Hey!"
* Chad`Winters looks over at Spade then nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances back at Sera. "Serena. Are you okay?"
* Chad`Winters makes his way out, stepping past Spade and Sera
