<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-584.2.20
<DeathStar> Location: Xan's Bedroom As He Wakes
* Xanatos sits up, glancing outside the window beside his bed.
<DeathStar> 6* A bird stares at him.
<Xanatos> NRP: LOL
* Xanatos arches a brow and just stands up, pulling on his clothes. He steps outside of his room, his eyes would move toward Erevis' room.
<DeathStar> 6* The door is open.
* Xanatos idley glances inside.
<DeathStar> 6* Empty.
* Xanatos turns and moves down the steps.
<DeathStar> 6* In the kitchen, the sound of voices can be heard. Darien sits at the table while Erevis sets some cooked bacon and pancakes down in front of him. It seems he's discussing some mission things.
* Cassandra`Arakawa doing her aerobics in the living room.
* Xanatos glances at Darien. Then at Erevis. He passes by and begins to search the fridge for something.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Greetings, Xanatos. 6She says upon his arrival. Darien glances at him, saying nothing as he bites into a piece of bacon. <Erevis> I have made you some if you wish to eat.
* Xanatos glances up at her. "Oh really? Wow, thanks." He says as he pours a glass of juice and leans against the counter.
<DeathStar> <Darien> As I was saying, Spade's been putting on the pressure to have our little group shut down. And whatever we found taken.
* Xanatos glances at him. "Anything we can do to get him to lay off?"
<Cassandra`Arakawa> So what's the plan? *spoken as she enters the kitchen*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien chews on the bacon, grabbing his juice. "Since we're funded by a different branch of the government, we're okay for the time being. However, since he's buddies with the President, it's really nothing much we can do in the long run. Unless we show some results. I've been getting reports about a drug ring. If we take it down, we could see particularly useful."
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Back to the streets then?
<Xanatos> My kinda place. *he says while taking a sip*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway... 6He pulls out some maps of the city, and picture of a woman. "We believe this woman - Sheila the White Queen as been moving large shipments of drugs through the city called Hyper. It increases a person's strength, but in the process, destroys their mind. A great way to make super soldiers.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Reminds me of Adam.
<DeathStar> <Darien> A good thing, too, since I'm sure V.I. is a big supplier of this crap.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Figures.
* Xanatos looks at the stuff quietly. "So are we going to pretend to be buyers?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway... We've located one of the hideouts of Shiela. 6He notes, tossing down a photo of a bar called The Lucky Tits. 6"This place is as lowlife as you can get. However, it's a good place to make illegal deals. I want us to ... locate where Sheila's shipment is at so we can take it.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Charming place.
<Xanatos> NRP: Lol. Great name.
<Xanatos> Just take it. No actual arrests?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, if you can nab Sheila, that would be great. 6He notes. "In fact, if Cassandra could pull off faking being Sheila, you might could get even deeper."
* Xanatos glances at Cassandra.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> I firgured it would be soemthing like that.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway, Chip's got the disguise made out. Once you two manage to locate Sheila - and get her information - get her out of the bar, and I'll have Chip meet Cassandra to make her the White Queen."
<Xanatos> Just us two? *he glances at Cass, then at Erevis*
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Do we have any surveillance footage of this White Queen?
<DeathStar> <Darien> We do not. As for Erevis, she will be with me in the meantime in the control room.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> That makes this harder then.
* Xanatos taps the table as he stares at the maps and the picture.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nothing is ever easy in this job. However, one of my agents is in the bar and informed me that the White Queen entered exactly 15 mins ago."
<Xanatos> Then we should go.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Time to change my face then.
* Setsuna` has joined #pax-season6session19TeamDarien
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pulls out a makeup kit, giving CAssandra a smile.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Make yourself look pretty, doll.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Whata bout Chip?
<Xanatos> You'll be doing that after we capture Sheila. *he notes, checking his pockets for something*
<DeathStar> <Darien> He's still working on your White Queen outfit.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> I'll put the face on when I get the costume.
<DeathStar> <Darine> Well, first you need to get the girl.
* Xanatos eyes them. "So. Are we leaving?"
<DeathStar> NRP: Darine.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. "Me and Erevis will go back to base camp and coordinate with you from there. Here's the location of the bar." 6He tosses it down.
* Xanatos scoops it up and heads out for the van.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Alright. See you two then. *heads out with Xan*
<DeathStar> 6* The Spy Van awaits them.
* Xanatos slides into the van and backs out, driving for their location. "I think this is going to be tough."
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Keeps you sharp.
<Xanatos> I hear ya. How was your space trip? *he glances at Cass*
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...don't want to talk about it.
* Xanatos arches a brow. "I'd kinda like to know though."
* Cassandra`Arakawa just gives him a look.
<Xanatos> ...You know. The only other person to ask is Darien, and he wont talk to me. *he says as he drives*
<DeathStar> NRP: <Cass> I don't do this bonding conversations. <Xanatos> Piss.
<Xanatos> NRP: LOL
<Cassandra`Arakawa> I'm not going to sleep with you.
* Xanatos laughs. "Right. Like I even want that."
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Oh...you swing that way now...?
* Xanatos glances at her. "Trying to change the subject isn't going to make me stop asking. And no, I love vagina." He says matter-of-factly.
<DeathStar> 6* They have 4 more mins until arrival. 4 more mins of convo
<Xanatos> NRP: *Watches Cass idle those 4 mins*
<Xanatos> NRP: Talk to me! *shakes her*
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Oh come on! What's wrong with me?
<Xanatos> Physically or mentally?
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...both?
* Xanatos smirks. "Nothing. Now tell me what happened on Erusian damnit!"
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...Rylong joined forced with Xevil, ok?'
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL. Rylong.
* Xanatos blinks, then looks out the window. "...I've heard everything now. What a dumbfuck."
<DeathStar> 6* They arrive at the bar.
<Xanatos> NRP: New thong style.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...right. Let's get to work.
* Xanatos stops at the bar and slides out. "Sorry bout that." He says oddly.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Hello you two. We're set up on my end.
* Xanatos taps his comm, "Roger, chief."
<DeathStar> <Erevis on Comm> Proceed with caution, Xanatos.
<Xanatos> <Comm> I will.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...so...front door?
<Cassandra`Arakawa> NRP: Hello?
<DeathStar> NRP: You asked DArien that?
<Xanatos> NRP: LOL DS has quite a bit going on as usual.
<DeathStar> NRP: I thought it was Xan, to be honest.
<Xanatos> NRP: I wasn't sure, actually.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> It would be the most effective way in.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> NRP: No *c* so Xan...but whatever.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Alright, in we go. *heads in through the front door*
<Xanatos> NRP: Ohhh sorry.
* Xanatos nods to her and moves in behind her.
<DeathStar> NRP He's a loser.
<Xanatos> NRP: It's true, sadly.
<DeathStar> 6* As they step into the bar, they can hear low chatters, and horrible old music playing from somewhere. Men who look like thugs play pool, while people at the bar drink quietly.
<Xanatos> Spread out. *he whispers, and instantly goes for the bar*
* Cassandra`Arakawa heads away from the bar with a nod.
* Xanatos sniffs, and wipes at some "snot", looking at the bartender. "What's the hardest thing you got?"
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender puts out some hard alien ale in front of Xan. Meanwhile, CAss would see the White Queen in a booth in the back
* Cassandra`Arakawa moves to the side, just to a place where she can see the White Queen...taking note of her mannerisms.
* Xanatos takes a sip and nods to the man, paying him, he turns in his seat and looks out at the bar, spotting thwe white queen as well.
<DeathStar> 6* The White Queen is talking to some man with no hair, her hands moving about as she talks - she seems to like using them.
* Cassandra`Arakawa continues to observe...studying her source material for when she has to play the part.
<DeathStar> 6* Finishing whatever she was here to do, The Queen gets up and begins to move for the door.
* Cassandra`Arakawa notes the way that the Queen walks...
* Xanatos slides up and moves towards the White Queen. "S'cuse me."
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes Xanatos. "Yes?"
<Xanatos> You's got the time to talk ta me?
<DeathStar> <White Queen> No. 6She goes to step around.
* Xanatos slides in front of her. "Not wanting a date luv. Just wanting to ask you for something. In private?" He glances towards an empty booth.
<DeathStar> <White Queen> Not interested. Move now. 6She orders.
* Xanatos holds up his hand and moves to the side, brushing against her.
<Xanatos> Sorry luv.
<DeathStar> 6* The White Queen stops, glancing down where he brushed her.
<Xanatos> You thinkin i'm dirty? *he tilts his head*
<DeathStar> 6* She pulls out device, running it over her.
* Xanatos eyes her oddly, since she would find nothing on her. "I just wanting to touch those breasts." He said with a shrug.
<DeathStar> 6* She ignores him and walks on outside.
* Xanatos glances at Cass and nods for her to tail her.
<DeathStar> 6* The White Queen immediately gets into a vehicle waiting on her and it drives off.
* Cassandra`Arakawa heads out of the bar...
* Xanatos frowns as the car drives off and steps out after Cass, setting his cup down as he gets into the van. "Damn I'm glad I didn't actually place that tracker on her."
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> I'm tracking her via satelite. Forget the outfit. We need to follow her now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien plugs it in the satelite feed into the van's computer screen.
* Xanatos nods and drives off after the queen, after Cass gets in.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Just drive. *buckles in*
* Xanatos already is.
<DeathStar> 6* The White Queen takes a left up ahead.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Holy mother of God...
<Xanatos> <Comm> Whats up?
* Xanatos slows down to keep to a following speed.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Someone just blew up the Presidential Building
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...say what?!
<Xanatos> <Comm> Holy hell. Was it Adam?
<DeathStar> <DArien on Comm> It could be. Man... 6He sounds as if he's really busy
<Cassandra`Arakawa> ...Xan, focus on the pursuit.
<DeathStar> 6* The Satalite shows that White Queen has parked outside a warehouse
* Xanatos takes the left, still following. And keeping track.
<DeathStar> <Darien on Comm> Okay, I have the spot marked on the map. For now, I want you two to come back to base. We can monitor this place for now. With the President's apparant death, I have a feeling things are about to get a lot more rough.
* Xanatos says alright as he redirects his course.
<Cassandra`Arakawa> Alright.
<DeathStar> Session Ends

<DeathStar> Location: Wherever Chad Might Be AT This Moment
* Seraphna has joined #pax-season6session19TeamJanus
<Chad`Winters> NRP: *kicks Sera out*
* Chad`Winters steps out on his balcony, looking out at the rising sun, he leans against the railing as he waits for the sun to rise.
<DeathStar> 6* The sounds of traffic can be heard.
* Chad`Winters steps back from the railing and heads inside, moving over to get dressed.
* Chad`Winters finishes dressing and turns the holo-news on.
<DeathStar> 6* It seems the news is discussing President Cran's upcoming speech about the Erusian civil war taking place, plus his plans for a new budget.
* Chad`Winters moves over to his datapad and begins typing on it.
<DeathStar> NRP: Chad feels he cannot perform with you watching him and asks you to leave.
* Chad`Winters moves over to the HoloTv shutting it off. He then moves out of his apartment, locking it behind him.
* Chad`Winters moves down to his bike, studying it for a second.
* Chad`Winters hops onto the bike, starting it up. He then drives off to work.
<DeathStar> 6* At work, meanwhile, Spade has been busy on the phone all morning.
* Chad`Winters pulls upto the base, shutting off the bike. He moves over to the compound entrance and steps inside.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances up as Chad enters, waving him over.
* Chad`Winters quickly moves over to Spade.
<DeathStar> <Spade> We've been getting reports of possible V.I. activity in the city. However, there appears to be no sign that Sera's involved.
<Chad`Winters> No reason to bring out the trump card for petty things.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I would normally agree, but I am concerned about why they are suddenly starting things up here.
<Chad`Winters> Is there any certain rhyme or reason at what there doing?
<DeathStar> <Spade> Not yet.
<Chad`Winters> What kind of activity?
<DeathStar> <Spade> We've caught some of their agents moving about, but in no particular area. I would say it's a giant smoke screen meant to have us looking anywhere and everywhere.
<Chad`Winters> Then we need to ignore them...Is there anything going on today that's notable?
<DeathStar> <Spade> The President's speech.
<Chad`Winters> Can you think of any better test of one's brain washing than to put daughter against father?
<DeathStar> <Spade> It could be too early and they would lose her.
* Chad`Winters scratches the back of his head. 1"That is true..."
<DeathStar> <Spade> However ...
<Chad`Winters> Yes?
<DeathStar> <Spade> The President is probably the only person who could truly reach out to Sera at this moment. Killing him would be an effect tactic.
<Chad`Winters> Then we should be there as back-up.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I agree. I'll leave it up to you. I'll remain here and try to coordinate other teams.
* Chad`Winters nods
* Chad`Winters moves off to the weapons room and begins prepping.
* Chad`Winters steps out of the weapons storage and moves off to the hanger.
<DeathStar> 6* In the hanger is various shuttles.
* Chad`Winters moves over to a shuttle and steps into it, moving over to the pilots seat and sitting down. He powers it up and takes off out of the hanger
* Chad`Winters flies off towards the location of the president's speech
<DeathStar> 6* The speech area is still being set up - it's an outdoor speech, it seems.
* Chad`Winters lands the shuttle in the designated parking area and shutes the shuttle off.
<DeathStar> 6* A small crowd is already gathering.
* Chad`Winters steps off the shuttle and looks around the area, studying the surrounding area and taking it all in
<DeathStar> 6* Various guards stand around. They seem to be Presidential elite.
* Neko has joined #pax-season6session19TeamJanus
* Seraphna has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Neko is now known as Seraphna
* Chad`Winters finishes studying the area and moves off to the side, now studying the people gathering.
<DeathStar> 6* Various upper class people, or citizens with nothing better to do.
* Chad`Winters nods to one of the Elite and looks up at the roof tops.
<DeathStar> 6* They seem to have only security in those areas up there.
* Chad`Winters moves off towards the stage area, making his way to the backstage
<DeathStar> 6* So far things are calm. It seems the President haven't even left his building yet
* Chad`Winters leans against one of the back structures and waits, constantly looking around
<DeathStar> 6* Time passes. The speech should be starting in 10 mins. No sign of Cran.
* Chad`Winters taps his comm. 1"Hey Spade, any word on when the President is supposed to be arriving?
<DeathStar> <Voice on Comm> Spade stepped out. He said something about checking on the president.
<Chad`Winters> <Comm> Where was he heading?
<DeathStar> <Voice on Comm> His office.
<Chad`Winters> <Comm> Thanks.
* Chad`Winters moves quickly back to his shuttle and powers it up. Heading towards Cran's office
<DeathStar> 6* He arrives 8 minutes later.
* Chad`Winters steps off the shuttle and moves into the building.
<DeathStar> 6* As he arrives, the office of the President explodes, sending glass flying out
* Chad`Winters is sent flyinng from the shockwave, his body twisting to let the shrapnel slam into his back instead.
<DeathStar> 6* A crowd begins to gather as they eye the building
* Chad`Winters pushes himself up, his body aching from the shockwave. He turns around eyeing the burning building.
<DeathStar> 6* A body is laying near by, buried under some burning debris.
* Chad`Winters dashes over to the body and begins moving the debris
<DeathStar> 6* Spade groans, half his face covered in blood.
* Chad`Winters grunts as he struggles to lift a big piece
<DeathStar> 6* Spade turns to face Chad. "Adam...got...the president..."
<Chad`Winters> What?! 6He growl and shoves the big piece off to the side
<DeathStar> 6* Spade wheezes, his lung crushed partially.
* Chad`Winters pulls out his comm. 1"I need a medical unit at the President's Office as fast as possible. We have one injured for sure.
<Chad`Winters> I should've came here first...6He kneels down beside Spade. 1"How bad are you?"
<DeathStar> <Spade> I'll live... 6He notes, coughing up some blood.
<Chad`Winters> You probably have internal bleeding, most likely a collapsed long...Can you tell me what happened?
<DeathStar> <Spade> I began to worry that they might attack before the speech...so I arrived..early...I found Adam had disabled the guards...and had Cran. Then there was a flash of light...and heat..
<Chad`Winters> We'll get you treated right away and go from there...
<DeathStar> 6 *Spade winces some as the medical team arrives and begins to treat him.
* Chad`Winters stands up, surverying the chaos again.
<DeathStar> 6* Helicopters are already circling
* Chad`Winters looks back down to Spade again
<DeathStar> 6* He's seems to have a mask on his face for oxygen as they treat him
<DeathStar> -End-

<DeathStar> Location: The Cartel Frigate
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel's wounds, while not life threatening, have left the mother of their race in a state of exhaustion and sleep, leaving Cheryl, inadvertantly, in control.
* Dias is standing outside the med room, his face planted against the window
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands in the bridge, glancing at the nav. coordinates against a galactic map.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks up behind Dias. "What's up?"
* Dias jumps as he's startled and turns around to face Zephyr. 1"Nothing."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances in at Ariel. "She will be okay."
* Dias nods. 1"Good. And you?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm fine. 6She gives him a smile. "You really helped me out down there. Thank you."
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru rests in her seat, still recovering, herself
* Dias rubs the back of his head, a smile appearing on his face. 1"I'm man."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr ruffles his hair playfully. "Yes you are."
<Dias> Where to now?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't know. I guess that's up to Cheryl to find out.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Cheryl.. where are we going next?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is in the bridge.
<DeathStar> NRP: Unless Hotaru is there.
<Dias> That's not good.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: I figured I was in a seat there, if not, that's okay
<DeathStar> NRP: That works
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> According to the computer, the nav. coordinates do not even take us near a populated a system.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Well, at least we won't have to spend a lot of time searching a planet.."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Perhaps so, but I still do not find myself at ease.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think we should wait for Ariel before we decide to go there.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Agreed. I would appreciate it also."
* Ariel has joined #pax-season6session19TeamDragoon
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl goes to say something when a communication comes in. She moves over to answer it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hunh. 6He looks tempted to hang up.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: ?
<DeathStar> NRP: She.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: Ahh, I thought it was someone else
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Who is it?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It appears the President wishes to speak with Ariel directly.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Too bad for him, he'll have to wait."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> He seemed quite urgent. It's a shame I had to tell him Ariel was resting. 6She looks clearly pleased.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru grins a little
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's a shame, really. 6She notes.
<Dias> Should check up on them?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "If he hadn't have insisted it be Ariel, one of us might have been able to respond."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr steps out onto the bridge, having been walking there to spy on them.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> True. He was very specific.
* Ariel opens her eyes slowly, looking up at the ceiling. Being confined to medbay could be... boring.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Oh well. Too bad, hmm?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I agree. 6She turns as Zephyr and Dias arrive.
* Dias slides to a halt.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, did you find out where we're going? <Cheryl> 'fraid not. This is a call Ariel will have to make when she's feeling better.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I hope it's soon.. although.. a little extra time to recover wouldn't hurt."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You did very good against Scythe, Hotaru. 6She notes approvingly.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Thanks.."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It was either you or her. 6She points out.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I know. I know it all too well."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm going to go check on Ariel. Keep an eye out for anything suspicious up here. 6She walks out. Zephyr moves over to pat Hotaru on the arm, understanding her relunctance to fight.
* Dias watches the two.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Alright."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I wonder what Chad is doing. 6She wonders, not having heard from him in a while.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps into the medical room. "I see you're up."
<Dias> I wonder to...6He sighs, also not having heard form him in that time.
<Ariel> "...awake, atleast."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks a little sad a moment, then cheers up. "I'm sure he's busy."
<Dias> Yeah, busy!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You had me worried. 6She notes, moving over to sit by her bed.
* Ariel nods, "I appologise.. I'm sure we are all glad that it didn't go much worse."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes. 6She looks down at her. "I can't believe you blocked my attack," 6she notes stubbornly.
* Dias stares out at the viewscreen
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans against the railing, sighing and blowing some brown hair out of her face.
* Dias moves over to the railing and leans over it, his feet dangling beneath him. 1"What's wrong?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm just missing Chad. 6She notes, glancing at Dias.
<Dias> Why?
* Dias tilts his head towards her, obviously curious
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru looks knowingly at Zephyr
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It is... difficult to explain.
<Dias> Oh. 6He says as if he understands.
<Ariel> "...I couldn't let things have ended that way, Cheryl."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And if he had decided to keep attacking you? What then?
<Ariel> "Then... I would have had to do all I could to protect the rest of you."
* Dias hops up onto the railing and sits on it. He looks over at Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ariel. You fight to win. It's that simple.
<Dias> Things be ok. 6He claps his hands together then suddenly starts falling backwards, his hands flail around and he falls completely off, landing on his head
* Ariel shakes her head slowly, "Maybe you'll understand some day... a true battle is more than a contest of martial prowess."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr spins around. "Dias? Are you okay?!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> By the way. Cran called for you. I told him you were too sick to talk.
* Dias groans and flops over, he pushes himself up into a sitting position and rubs the top of his head.
* Ariel nods slowly, "...I think I can manage a call now."
<Dias> Thick head...6He taps it
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What happened?
<Dias> Lost balance.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But...how?
* Dias shrugs, rubbing the back of his head.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright, I'll put him on. 6She goes to transfer the car, but the other end is static. "I guess he hung up."
<Ariel> "...would you try to contact him for me? I cannot see Cran calling to be social."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll go to the bridge and try. 6She exits.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps onto the bridge and attempts to establish contact with the office. Nothing. She contacts Ariel. "No one's answering."
* Dias looks at Zephyr. 1"Sorry." 6He hangs his head.
<Ariel> "...no one?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Not a soul.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... 6She pats him on the back.
* Dias stands up, scrunching his face.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "If it's urgent, something tells me that he'll call back."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hotaru's right, Ar. I'm sure if he needs us, he'll call back.
<DeathStar> NRP: She has the comm channel open to med bay.
<Ariel> "...it wouldn't hurt to change course towards Earth while we wait for a responce."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But the nav. coordinates we got from the 3 pieces are the opposite direction
<Ariel> "If there is a reason for there being absolutely no responce from the presidential offices, the time will be more critical if we are moving away from Earth."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sighs, then turns them around, heading for Earth
<Ariel> "...the coordinates have waited this long. I am sure they'll not expire so quickly."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I can see Chad again. 6She notes excitedly.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "And we don't have tagalongs any more.. Earth first sounds alright to me."
<Dias> Yeah I can see dad!

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-584.2.20
<DeathStar> Location: Erusian Space
<DeathStar> 6* More days have passed as the system continues to waver between all out food shortages to trying to maintain supply control. The Tsivrixsh fleet has long since left and only Xevil's ship remains, undergoing various repairs. Meanwhile, Warren has seemingly bought himself a cheap Erusian shuttle that was being sold for money and is now currently in the hanger speaking with Fox.
* Cole is walking throughout the halls, headed for the hanger.
<Red_Fox> "So.. how are you feeling now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits in the wheelchair. "I'm going to head planetside and see the damage for myself."
* Shiva` sits in a conference room, a terminal infront of her and tons of folders sprawled across part of the table
* Red_Fox nods quietly. "I'm not sure whether to do the same myself."
<Kio> 2Ry stands on a pile of rubble, rubbing his forward with a bit of frustration. He looked up at the sky. 14"Dammit..I hope they come through soon.."
<Arhn> What is your perspective on the situation, Shiva?
* Cole steps into the Hanger and moves over toward Fox and Warren, a frown on his face.
* Red_Fox looks over to Cole. "What's up?"
<Shiva`> I don't think that Erusia can survive with the little bit of reserves that Rylon gathered before the civil war.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren uses the wheelchair's mechanics to turn himself around to eye Cole as he approaches.
<Arhn> I know...that is what has me most concerned...
* Cole just shakes his head. "This whole mess just bothers me. Thats all."
<Shiva`> And sadly, you don't have really any allies besides The Cartel and the Tsiv who don't seem to eager to help leaving you with very few options.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Anyway. I'm going planet side. I've found a building that is renting out rooms for income. I plan to stay down there.
<Arhn> I am also aware of that.
<Shiva`> Wit that said, The Cartel are willing to allocate the necessary resources to stabilize your food shortage.
* Cole tilts his head. "Any particular reason, or just planning on getting away from this ship?"
<Arhn> Thank you for your support.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I have several reasons.
<Red_Fox> "Any you want to share?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> No.
* Cole nods his head. "You going to be doing anything that would require our help?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> I suppose that would depend on what you two plan to do now. What do you two plan to do? 6He asks.
<Red_Fox> "i want to help the planet recover. Somehow."
<Cole> I was pulled into this mess by Rylon. So now i'm just trying to figure out where i'll fit into the equation.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Then I suggest you two should find out what your place is this drama will be.
<Cole> And what is yours?
<Kio> 2He sits down on the pile, sighing rather heavily. His head rushed with ideas, but all of them seemed so trivial..he already allocated some equipment to fisheries to help facilitate things. Rylons hand move over his head, followed by a rather deep sigh.
<DeathStar> <Warren> As soon as I feel the Black Angel matter is being handled properly, I shall be leaving back to Earth.
* Cole nods his head. "I understand. I could ask Shiva if she needs my help. But if she doesn't, do you think you could use it?"
<Shiva`> Don't thank us yet Lady Arhnya, allocating the required resources is going to tax The Cartel heavily themselves, this isn't something that can be done for free.
<Red_Fox> "I guess I understand too. Really.. I'm not even sure I'll be able to help here."
<Red_Fox> "I'm no diplomat."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren takes a deep breath, nodding. "I feel we are all out of our element here."
* Cole nods as well.
<Red_Fox> "I guess you're right, but I'm not sure where to go even then."
<Cole> Hold on a second. *he steps back and pulls up his comm* Miss Shiva? Are you going to need me around? Because I think I might go planetside with Warren.
<Arhn> Of course...however, I canot give you a tiemframe for repayment yet...ther eis no guarantees that the Acendancy will survive to pay you back.
* Shiva` looks down at her comm, slightly irritated that someone would interupt her right now.
<Kio> NRP: Holy hell.
<Shiva`> The Cartel will do what it can to keep Erusia from falling into chaos. May I suggest that you allow some of our workers, diplomats and some of our Security Forces to help stabilize things and start rebuilding?
* Cole sees that Shiva isn't going to respond so he shrugs and turns back to them. "Fuck her." He says with a shrug. "I'm of no use here, and I know she'll agree."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Then let us go to the planet together. Perhaps we can learn a few things of our own.
<Arhn> Of course. We have been thrust out on to the galactic stage. I intend that if that is what must happen, I wish to take it further and transform the Ascendancy into the crossroads of the galaxy.
* Cole nods and glances at Warren, he was about to offer help but then realized that would only offend Warren, so he just waits for him to continue.
<Kio> 2Stands up after a moment, and begins to load the debris into the back of the trucks to help recycle the building matter. Around him multiple workers did the same, all he could do was hope at this point.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves the controls and moves up the ramp of his newly bought Erusian shuttle.
* Red_Fox follows, silently
* Cole steps up and closes the ramp. "Want me to pilot?"
<Shiva`> You're going to need to take this slowly, otherwise it'll appear to your people that you're letting someone else take control.
<Arhn> I know...but we are in dire straits as is.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I can do it. 6He moves over to the controls. He begins to check off his various switches.
<Shiva`> What I suggest is we start with a Disaster Aid-esque convoy from the Cartel, nothing invasive, just to show your people that you aren't going to abandon them. From there we can move on rebuilding living quarters and then work on the rebuilding your economy. The Cartel will send the materials and skilled laborers to guide your people in building so that all Erusians can feel like they have a hand in rebuilding their worl
* Cole nods and takes Co-pilot position. And just helps with his side of things.
<DeathStar> <Warren> We are cleared for leaving. 6He notes, lifting the shuttle up and flying it out.
<DeathStar> 6* The shuttle flies down toward the planet - passing the various destroyed defense platforms.
<Arhn> Sensible.
<Red_Fox> "The place looks a mess even from here.."
<DeathStar> 6* They fly overhead, passing the various cracked buildings and ruined streets. As Warren brings the shuttle down in one of the remaining landing ports, he powers down.
<Shiva`> I've got the paperwork already written up all I need is your approval Lady Arhnya.
<Arhn> I shall have to consult the provisional council before making any commitments.
<DeathStar> 6* They have a perfect vantage point of the chaos wrecked on the city from their landing point. Warren gazes out.
* Cole looks out. "Ever took a look into the aftermath of hell?" He muses.
<Red_Fox> "... yes."
<DeathStar> <Warren> I've seen this destruction before. 6He notes ,remembering the earth colonies in the Ridarium War.
<Shiva`> Of course this isn't something that can be decided by you alone but I must urge you to deal with this decision quickly.
* Cole glances at Warren. "I'm glad that I haven't."
<Arhn> I shall communicate with them at once f there are no further matters that you need to bring to my attention.
* Shiva` begins gathering the documents together and then wraps them together with a piece of cloth. She then slides them over to Arhn.
* Red_Fox looks down at the floor of the shuttle, speaking sadly in response to Warren. "Me too.. almost feels like home..."
<DeathStar> 6 *Warren grunts. Something is apparant that if he ever met Rylon, it would be a bad thing for the Erusian
* Cole looks at Warren. "I don't think that would help." He says, as if he knew was Warren was thinking.
<Shiva`> This is everything you need to show them, the details of the trade for supplies and reconstruction and what we'd like to see in return at some time.
<Red_Fox> "Pretty sure that it wouldn't... but it'd feel good."
<Arhn> I shall do so then. Thank you.
* Shiva` nods and taps her comm. 1"You called Cole?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> We should--- 6A building begins to rumble and fall down into the ground. One of those famous Erusian bugs seems to be attacking
<Red_Fox> "Destroy the bug?"
* Cole eyes the bug "Are you serious?" He pulls up the comm. "I'm planetside if you need me. Just letting you know."
<Shiva`> <Comm> Understood.
<Red_Fox> "... sortof. I don't think it'd be easy..."
<DeathStar> <Warren> No one else is in any shape to do it. 6He notes.
<Red_Fox> "Yeah, THAT's what I was worried about."
<Shiva`> NRP: *wheels upto the Bug and rolls over it*
* Cole stands and pulls out his pistol. "Well damn." He opens the shuttle ramp and steps out, charging the pistol as he moves in for a shot.
<DeathStar> 6 *Warren wheels out after Cole.
* Cole glances at Warren. "I think it would be more potent to use the shuttle."
* Red_Fox rushes out after Cole, heading around the other side of the bug, firing on it's eyes with her pistol
<Red_Fox> NRP: Except... if you're completely in front...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the civilian shuttle - with no weapons. "Yes. I shall ram it into the bug, no doubt."
* Cole frowns at Warren. "Fine." He sends a charged shot out for its left eye, since he is on the left side.
* Red_Fox keeps firing on the bug's right eye, in that case
<Kio> 2Seems one of the Erusias favorite friends came to help with clean up duty. People begin to scatter, as it begins to tower upon the debris..retracting 2 razor sharp claws from it's body. It stood upon 2's looks, and it seemed to have a semblanced of a human..as it's mouth chittered. Both green eyes narrowed upon Red, and it moved forward with incredible speed. It swerved around her shots, bring 2
<Kio> 2 ing it's blade forward in an effort to slap away the annoyance that is Red. It quickly retracts afterwards, bring it's remaining claw upwards..blocking Coles shots and sending them bouncing off. 2
<Cole> NRP: Just one charged. :D
<DeathStar> 6* Warren goes to grab his guns, but remembers he blew them up.
* Red_Fox dashes out of the path of the blade, keeping the fire up
* Cole fires a the face of the bug as he moves out in a strafe motion.
<Kio> 2It pulled up it's other blade, blocking Red fox's shots also. It seemed the defense of the bug was not easily overwhelmed..especially by 2 people. It quickly ducked low, opening it's mouth. A strream of acid shot from it's mouth, trying to cover Cole
<DeathStar> 6* Warren wheels around, trying to get behind the bug
* Cole does a diving roll during his strafe, he continues firing in random spots now, searching for a opening.
* Red_Fox keeps moving as she fires, hoping that this will reduce the bug's ability to attack or block
<Kio> 2It quickly shoots backwards at incredible pace, and didn't seem to notice Warren. This was now a double edged sword, as he was on a quick collision course. It seemed to now divert it's attention from the sides to his front, bringing both blades forward to effectively nullify both of their shots.
<DeathStar> 6* Grabbing a sharp piece of rock from the ground, Warren tosses it at one of the eyes.
<Cole> NRP: From behind?
<DeathStar> NRP: He's THAT good.
<Kio> 2It's eye was nailed, and it stumbled backwards, colliding with the ground. The shockwave likely reaching over to Warren. But despite it's bloodyness, it shot backwards over Warren, now having all 3 of them in front of him. Both arms shot forward, and attached. They rapidly begin to spin, like a drill..before he rams them into the ground. Within seconds, it seemed like he was fully burrowed.
<Red_Fox> "That's not good..."
* Cole holsters his pistol and pulls out his katars. He watches the ground closely, looking for the direction of the bug.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren wheels away.
<Cole> You think it is gone? *he asks Warren*
<Kio> 2The ground rumbled heavily underneath them, it was hard to determine where in this minor earthquake. Then the ground directly beneath Cole would break up, as an upwards shockwave send debris flying in all directions. It's single eye narrowed upon his prey, and he unleashed another stream of acid out.
<DeathStar> 6* A tazer blast comes flying out at Fox's back.
* Cole jumps back at the rumbling, then dodges to the left as he moves in, Katars leading the way.
* Red_Fox tries to dodge, but is struck anyway, rolling away from the blast... rather clumsily
<Red_Fox> "GAAAAAAHHHH!!!!"
* Cole jerks his head to look in Fox's direction while he attacks the bug.
<Red_Fox> NRP: Fox is weak to sneak attacks!
<DeathStar> 6* Standing there is a human man. He unleashes more taser current into Fox, while he aims and fires a tranq dart at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren spins around in his chair, recognizing the man as the guy who called himself Fury.
<Kio> 2It seemed to continue spiraling into the air, making getting close quite hard. The bug once burrows itself into the ground once more, everything going silent.
* Red_Fox winces, and turns to face the man, somehow managing to avoid the dart, despite her juddering
* Cole turns towards the man and pulls up his pistol. Firing at the man.
<DeathStar> 6* Fury moves behind some debris to avoid the shot. "Not bad, Fox. Exactly what I expected from the person who defeated Vennie."
<Red_Fox> "You don't even know what he was like..."
* Cole begins to strafe around the rock, ignoring the bug. He moves to get a good shot, and would fire once possible.
<Kio> 2That would be quite a mistake, as the ground once more begins to shake. This time however there is a large explosion to the back of the 4. The bug is seen trailing the surface like a shark, splitting the earth and sending debris flying in all directions.
<DeathStar> 6* As Cole moves into sight, Fury fires a blast at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren is knocked out of his chair, hitting the ground.
* Red_Fox points her own gun at Fury during the distraction
* Cole gets clipped in the shoulder and urcks and aims to fire at Fury, while stumbling with the bug movements.
* Red_Fox fires as Cole does, trying to keep the shots non-lethal, but having no intention of letting Fury fire another
<DeathStar> 6* Fury leaps behind some more debris, leaving them to the bug.
<Kio> 2It retracts it's back legs, and shoots into the sky like before. It begins to curl into a massive ball, and opening landing seems to charge right at Fox, Cole, Warren at incredible speeds.
<Cole> NRP: Wtf is it douing? SPinning like sonic?
<Kio> NRP: Something like that
* Red_Fox rushes out of it's path, quickly
* Cole moves to try and get out of the way, he'd dive if need be.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren is simply crushed, as he is a cripple.
<Cole> NRP: LOL
<Kio> NRP: Heartless bastards, save him
* Red_Fox pulls Warren out of the way as she runs
<Kio> 2Warren chair gets crushed
<Red_Fox> NRP: I was meaning in the chair, but.. if that's what's going to happen.. ^^;;
<DeathStar> NRP: He fell out of it.
<Red_Fox> NRP: Ah, okay
<DeathStar> 6* Warren is dragged along, barely saved from being crushed to death by the bug
<Kio> 2It reels around, taking down another half collapsing building. It seems to swivel in, making a second pass toward them.
<DeathStar> 6* Fury seems to have vanished in the commotion
* Cole fires at it as he runs away.
* Red_Fox keeps moving, determined not to be crushed, even if it means not having time to fire back
<Kio> NRP: *Warren get ditched again*
<Red_Fox> NRP: Nope, I'm still pulling Warren along, that's why I can't fire
<Red_Fox> "Damn it.. I can't fight like this.."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts. "Let me go before you get caught by this thing."
<Kio> 2It seemed to wisen up, appearing to bemore intellegent then the others they fought. It quickly detached itself from ball position, purposly targging the proccupied fox. It swings into the air, landing with a heavy thud right before it. A massive blade swings out, attempting to pierce into her stomach and lift her.'
<Red_Fox> "I'm not going to let you get crushed!"
* Red_Fox drops to the ground to avoid the blade
<Kio> 2It seemed to have a doubled edged effect, once Red dropped..Warren who was being dragged..now finds himself threatened with an oncoming blade.
<Cole> NRP: Not if she pulled him with her.
* Cole moves in from the backside of the bug, his katars moving in for it.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grabs a rock and tosses it at it.
<Kio> NRP: She dropped to the ground..he isn't getting pulled much of anyway..she ducked it pretty much
<Kio> NRP: Anywhere
* Red_Fox pulls out her gun, and fires on the joints of the bladearm
<Kio> 2The big gets sliced into the back, his aim getting throw off. The blade would get impaled directly into the ground next to Warrens head. It quickly pulled it's head out of the way of the rock, the gun shots tearing into his joint. But it left her vulnerable as his remaining blade came around, attempting to cleave her from the side.
* Cole slings his blades out, aiming to sever the arm.
* Red_Fox rolls to avoid the blade, curling up to make herself a smaller target at the last minute
<DeathStar> 6* As Fox rolls, Fury reappears, aiming to shoot her in the back with his tranq.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the blade.
<Kio> 2The blade lodged in the ground got instantly cut off by the Katars. Red would find herself with a near death experience, as it swiftly cut into strands of her hair..the sheer wind quite threatening. It rolled the claw around, bring the dull end to crash into the stomach of Cole, and send him spiraling into debris
* Red_Fox hurries to her feet, not wanting near-death to become just death
<Kio> NRP: You're getting shot attt
<DeathStar> 6* While she manages to dodge the one bug, Fox is hit by Fury's tranq.
* Red_Fox stumbles towards cover... then collapses
* Cole pulls up his Katars to block the arm, his own strength tightening to keep from sending him flying. He would pull his arms low and bring them up to sever the other arm.
<Red_Fox> NRP: I didn't really have a chance here, did I? :P
<DeathStar> NRP: Nope.
<Cole> NRP: never!
<Kio> 2It quickly brought it's claw forward from above the Katars, slamming them against the ground and pinning them. It unleashed a fatal roar as it brought it's mouth down, attempting to bite into Coles shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* Fury grabs Fox and tosses her over his shoulder, turning to exit. This leaves Warren defenseless again.
* Cole moves low and thrusts his katars up, aiming to impale the katars into the creatures chin, shutting its mouth.
<Kio> 2A good move, if the Katars wern't still pinned to the ground by his claws.
<Cole> NRP: ...
<Kio> NRP: Er claw
* Cole growls and twists his katars into the ground, he pulls the sharp side of the katars up, aiming to sever the arm and bring them crashing into the monsters face.
<Kio> 2It suddenly moved, not away but more in front of Coles attacks. Both katars would miss his arm, and get lodged instead of his chest. Almost like a liquidy substance, his blood rushed out..it was sticky..making the blades incredible hard to pull out. The bug used this to his advantage, whipping the blunt end of his claw around to smash directly into the side of Cole.
* Cole grunts and takes the hit, his face darkens as he pushes forward pulling his katars out to the side to open the things chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren, having crawled along the ground to retirve Fox's gun, aims it at the bug's face and fires.
<Kio> 2The Blade suddenly switched on the joint, it's blade end now taking place of the blunt side. It attempts to drive the claw into Coles side after impact, however not fatal as Cole proceeds to open it's chest cavity up. It attempts to get it deeper, as it gets shot in back of the head by Warren, it stumbles forward, leaping forward and ripping Coles Katars out. It lands upon the ground 10 yards 2
<Kio> 2 in front of them, turning around. It's chest completely opened..inside revealed to be a mess, but a glimpse ahead..would reveal organs..one that seemed closely similar to Erusians. 2
<Shiva`> NRP: Since they've all opened up Erusians lately
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL
<DeathStar> NRP: <Warren> I knew those experiments would do me good
<Kio> NRP: Well it would look like a Humans anatomy too!
<Kio> NRP: Somwhat, anyway
<Arhn> NRP: <Arhn> We had kinky sex.
* Cole just moves despite bleeding and takes his katar to cut the creatures head off.
<Kio> 2It's eye gleam slightly, and it's claw shoots forward as Coles Katars move forward. The Creatures head is cut off, but not before at the same time..making a pass directly at Coles stomach while he was vulnerable
* Cole gets stabbed in the gut since he apparently can't move away from it. He just urcks and makes a dark face.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Cole!
<DeathStar> Session Ends
