<Seraphna> the dog
* DeathStar hits the button to activate the dog.
* Seraphna hits anotehr button, somewhere in Garland's house, a light goes on

<DeathStar> Location: Facility 12
<DeathStar> 6* Chad has come face to face with Dr. Johnson and Serena face to face with General Cran.
<Seraphna> "D-Daddy..."
<DeathStar> 6* General Cran stays hidden mostly in the shadows.
<Chad`Winters> You're supposed to be dead...6His arms sag slightly as if the weight of the gun is too much.
<Seraphna> "What happened... why have you been hiding?"
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Well, my boy, that goes to show you shouldn't believe everything you hear. 6He pushes up his glasses with a finger.
<DeathStar> <General Cran> .... 6He shifts, crossing his arms. "You should not have come here, Serena."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad stares at him. "...So that's how they knew what the anti-toxin would look like...
<Seraphna> "I've spent the last three months believing that I murdered you... and paying for it... what happened? Dad?"
<DeathStar> <Doctor> The anti-toxin? 6He snorts, clearly enraged. "The anti toxin?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cran shakes his head, moving further into the shadows.
<Chad`Winters> What the hell are you doing here?
<Seraphna> "Dad... let me see you..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Doctor stops his ranting. "I work here, boy. You should mind your manners around me."
<DeathStar> <Cran> You've changed so little, Serena. So very little. 6He notes, his tone sounding tired suddenly.
<Seraphna> "It's my biggest problem..."
<DeathStar> <Cran> ...
<Seraphna> "Why are you hiding Dad?"
<Chad`Winters> Give me one good reason why I shouldn't end your life now.
<DeathStar> <Doctor> End my life? 6He snorts. "I MADE you. That foolish Alexander may have twisted your mind, but *I* made you. MY genius."
<DeathStar> <Cran> We have nothing more to discuss, Serena. 6He notes, moving further away into the room.
<Seraphna> "Dad... wait!"
<Chad`Winters> You wanted me for nothing but as a tool of destrucion..
<Seraphna> "It was you wasn't it... you helped make Zera, and the virus."
<DeathStar> <Doctor> You are a weapon, Chad. The greatest weapon ever made. A killer without conscious or thought or reason. You were a genius. A genius of death. I tried to engineer a way to reverse what Alexander did to you, but clearly you're still a failure.
<Chad`Winters> One man's failure, is another man's redemption.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Yes. I created your double. And the virus that robbed you of your powers.
<Seraphna> "Why? Why are you doing this?"
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Obviously the "anti toxin" given to you at the base was a failure. Or Alexander purposely failed in it. No matter. I have my own serum created now.
<DeathStar> <Cran> And why should I not, Serena? Tell me. What have you DONE with your abilities? 6He says, slapping his hands down on the table, his face appearing in one of the pale lights.
<Chad`Winters> I find I enjoy the balance that's been met with my Id.
<Seraphna> "Nothing."
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Nonsense. 6He snorts, moving to a table full of needles. "Alexander was a full to give you a moral compass to go by."
<DeathStar> <Cran> Nothing. 6He repeats.
<Seraphna> "I did whatever you ordered, were you VI when they first kidnapped me too?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad stiffens up re-aiming it towards Johnson. "I advise you leave those alone.
<DeathStar> <Cran> V.I. 6He snorts.
<DeathStar> 6* The Doctor glances at Chad, taking one in his hand. "I'm going to fix you, Chad."
<Seraphna> "For once father, stop with the smoke and mirrors and tell me what's happening!"
<Chad`Winters> Like hell, I said I was happy with who I was.
<DeathStar> <Cran> No.
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Hardly. You don't know what true power is like.
<Chad`Winters> Maybe...but you'll be the last one to show me.
<Seraphna> "Did you not think I'd follow you? If you just told me?"
<DeathStar> <Doctor> There is nothing you can do to stop me.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad tilts the gun slightly, firing off a warning shot by Johnson's head.
<DeathStar> <Cran> How simple minded you are Serena! 'Follow me'. 6He points at her. "Do you do nothing of your own accord? Do you allow everyone to manipulate you? Me? Spade? "
<DeathStar> 6* The Doctor taps something on his belt and suddenly Chad's arm drops down, and doesn't seem to work.
<Seraphna> "You're doing it even now."
<Chad`Winters> 6The gun clatters to the gun as both his arms hang limply. A worried look flashes across his face as he takes several steps back.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: ground
<DeathStar> <Cran> And you're letting me.
<Seraphna> "I want answers, and I want to make my own choice."
<DeathStar> <Doctor> I made you, Slasher. I made your brother, Dias. And you both will serve my agendas.
<Chad`Winters> What the hell did you to do me?
<DeathStar> <Doctor> A safety protocol.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran still says nothing, clearly not going to tell Serena what she wants to know.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad's eyes zone out briefly then refocus back on Johnson
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor taps something else on his belt and Chad's legs stop working - but don't let him fall.
<Chad`Winters> What th...6He tries to move but doesn't. "Darien...some help...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien apparantly isn't there.
* Seraphna stares at him, thinking
<DeathStar> 6* Cran turns, clearly about to walk away.
<Seraphna> "I don't know you anymore. I thought I did."
<DeathStar> <Cran> Then maybe for once you can learn something. 6He begins to walk off.
<Chad`Winters> That son of a bitch...
<Seraphna> "STAY HERE!"
<DeathStar> 6* Cran ignores her.
* Seraphna runs after him.
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor stops in front of Chad. "You may be a prototype, Slasher, but you're still a great weapon." 6He begins to bring the needle forward toward Chad's neck.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran just walks, clearly not increasing his pace to get away from Seraphna.
* Seraphna puts her hand on his shoulder to stop him, "I said wait!"
<DeathStar> 6* Cran shakes her off, not stopping.
* Seraphna moves in front of him.
<DeathStar> <Cran> ...
<Seraphna> "I'm in your way. And I will be until you answer me."
* Seraphna looks at him right in the eyes.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran goes to step around her. "That's unbecoming of you."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad growls as he struggles to try and break himself free
* Seraphna puts an arm out, not letting him go.
<Seraphna> "Maybe I've changed more then you think."
<DeathStar> <Cran> You think you can merely get what you want by blocking someone's path, Seraphna?
<Seraphna> "You want me to do more?"
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor grabs Chad's head, tilting it as he begins to put the needle in his neck. Right then the doctor is grabbed and slammed into the ground, his belt shattering.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes a deep breath. "Hah."
<DeathStar> <Cran> ...
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad stumbles back, losing his balance, resulting in him falling.
<Chad`Winters> You son of a bitch...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, you're welcome, too.
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor gets to his feet slowly.
* Chad`Winters pushes himself up and quickly moves over to the doctor, shoving him back onto the ground with a boot to the chest
<Seraphna> "For everything you've done to me... I should hurt you."
<DeathStar> <Cran> ...
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor hits the ground, wincing. "Slasher..."
<Seraphna> "You're my father, now treat me like your daughter."
<DeathStar> <Cran> You're a tool. Nothing more.
<Chad`Winters> It's Chad Winter's. 6He moves over slowly stepping on the doctors left hand.
<Chad`Winters> It's Chad Winter's. 6He moves over slowly stepping on the doctors left hand.
<Seraphna> "I am Serena Cran."
<DeathStar> 6* The doctor scowls. "A failure. I'll show you what a real Weapon can do."
<Seraphna> "I am my own person."
<DeathStar> <Cran> No, you are not. You can redefine yourself as much as you like, tell yourself you are capable of anything, but you lack the will to do anything. You are a failure.
<DeathStar> 6* The room Chad's in begins to shake. Darien glances around. "Now what?!"
<Seraphna> "Yes I am."
<Seraphna> "Stop denying me!"
* Chad`Winters takes several steps back looking around. He then looks down at the doctor. "What the hell did you do?
<DeathStar> 6* Cran looks clearly unmoved. In fact, he looks down right disgusted with her.
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Meet your brother, Slash. I think you'll find how much you lack power. 6And with that, another person begins to step into the room, bulkier and buffer than Slasher.
<Seraphna> "I woke up to think you were dead. Would you have even shed a tear if I died?"
<DeathStar> <Cran> No. You are weak. You are incapable of anything.
<Seraphna> "I am capable of anything I want to do."
<DeathStar> <Cran> Clearly not of getting your answers from me.
* Chad`Winters looks up at Slash. 1"Brother huh....He must've gotten your looks."
<DeathStar> 6* Slash turns his head, an insane grin appearnig on his face.
<DeathStar> <Doctor> Slash, destroy Slasher!
* Seraphna doesn;t even blink, as she shoves him backwards. "Tell me!"
<DeathStar> 6* Cran rebalances himself.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash pulls out two short blades and activates a strange field around them. He holds the warp blades out in front of him. Darien activates his own weapon, stepping to the side.
* Seraphna realises she's done something she really thought herself incapable of, taking an offensive actaion against him, she changes the way she stands, an offensive stance, a cross between Spade's and Chad's.
* Chad`Winters growls slightly obviously knowing this isn't going to be an easy fight now. He reaches behind his back, pulling out his staff and extending it.
<Seraphna> "You're going to tell me."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran grabs his lab coat, pulling it off. He raises his own fists.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash dashes in on Chad, swinging out his blades in an X-Strike.
* Chad`Winters extends his staff, launching him backwards through the lab, distancing himself again
* Seraphna charges, kicking out at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran blocks with the arm that was broken and as Serena connects, it would feel as if she were hitting steel.
<DeathStar> <Cran> I had hoped fighting Zeraphna you would learn to get some backbone. From what I hear, you failed.
* Seraphna growls and turns into another kick. "I needed one last fall."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran blocks with his arm again.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash leaps up into the air, closing the distance instantly, bringing down both blaes.
* Seraphna moves the kick into a punch past his guard.
* Chad`Winters dashes to the side, and swings his staff upto intervept the two blades in an attempt to hold them at bay.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran grabs her extended arm with his own. "You are nothing but a weak little girl." 6He swings her into the wlal.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash activates his warp field, aiming to cut the staff in half.
* Seraphna flies back and cries out as she hits, slumping, before struggling to stand. "I am... not your tool."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran punches with the steel like arm, aiming for her stomach.
<Chad`Winters> 6The two parts of the staff clatter to the ground, Chad quickly dashes sideways, again trying to distance himself. "Dangerous blades...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien dashes in, swinging. Slash parries and the two struggle against each other.
* Seraphna groans and doubles over, falling to one knee, she moves to stand again, "I'm tired of being used..."
<DeathStar> <Cran> Then beat me.
* Seraphna opens her eyes suddenly, headbutting into him.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran tilts his head so their foreheads collide.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad spins around then hurls the rest of his staff towards Slash's head as he's dealing with Darien
<DeathStar> 6* Slash ducks, breaks the parry, and kicks Darien away into a wall.
* Seraphna growls softly, glaring into his eyes, definance in them.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran reaches out to snag her by the throat with his steel crushing hand.
* Seraphna grabs his hand, holding him at bay, kicking out at him towards his lower areas
<DeathStar> 6* As she grabs, Cran jerks her off balance immediately with his arms. It would appear he has the strength of a Ridarium.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran throws a punch after she's off balance.
* Seraphna lets herself fall, clearing the punch as she uses the wall to push herself into him in a tackle
* Chad`Winters reaches both hands behind his back then shoves them forward, two small blades flying out of his hands towards Slash.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran is tackled along. He grabs her back and tosses her away.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash swings out to parry them.
* Seraphna flips and lands, skidding, her eyes dead set on him. "I am an Omega, powers or not, and I'll make you see it!" *she charges him again*
<DeathStar> <Cran> You refer to yourself as a weapon. Interesting. 6He prepares his body.
* Seraphna weaves to teh side as she punches, delivering a roundhouse kick towards his back. "When I need to be."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran grabs her fist with his hand, beginning to crush it. The roundhouse kick connects.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash rushes at Chad and swings out with his left hand blade.
* Seraphna cracks her own thumb, pushing outwards, breaking his hold on her hand and grabbing his wrist, pulling him witht eh force of her kick into a throw.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad reaches his left hand behind his right side as he leaps backwards away from the slash and throws another dagger towards Slash.
<Seraphna> "All those times I was used... I grew stronger... learned more... I don't need your god damned gifts!"
<DeathStar> 6* Bad move again. As he grabs, Cran's superior strength yanks he toward him - and right into his knee.
* Seraphna groand and falls back, stumbling.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash parries with the right blade.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Hmph.
* Seraphna stands yet again, grinning softly, confidently looking him in the eye.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran swings out his power arm for her.
* Seraphna ducks, weaving to his other side, licking out at the flank.
<Seraphna> *kicking
<DeathStar> 6* Cran stumbles.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad flips backwards onto a table, spring boarding off it with his hands, as he comes full around he kicks the table right into Slash.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pushes himself from the wall.
<Seraphna> "Design flaw... how unlike you."
<DeathStar> 6* Slash turns and kick it, stopping it.
* Seraphna stands back in that stance, then moves into a defensive one, one hand out, the other behind her back.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran reaches down, grabbing a metal table and swinging it out at Sera.
* Seraphna dances back, her eyes focused on him.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Let us put this to an end. 6He begins to prepare for one last attack. "I am aiming to kill you."
<Seraphna> "Not this time."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran launches himself forward.
* Seraphna launches towards him.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran, using his weaker arm as a shield, punches forward with his power arm - right for her heart.
<Chad`Winters> 6Takes several deep breathes, having been forced on the defensive has begun to wear hium down
<DeathStar> 6* Slash leaps forward, spinning around in a fast circle, both blades whipping out.
* Seraphna drops at the last second, letting his attack fly over her, twisting to his weak side, she moves up into a strong kick for his midsection, using his movements to create an opening.
<DeathStar> 6* Cran is hit and falls to his knees, grabbing his heart.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Very good...Serena...
* Seraphna stands still, ready for his next move. "Never again Dad."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran leans his back against the wall, holding his chest.
<Seraphna> "Dad?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad squats then flips straight upwards as, flipping his body as Slash comes underneath him. He comes fully around kicking straight for his head.
<DeathStar> <Cran> ...listen carefully to me, Serena...I do not have a lot of time. V.I. made me work for them, wanting me to build them an Omega. To help them...find ... Origin.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash is kicked, but as he pivots around, he brings his blade around as well for a cut.
* Seraphna moves closer to him, kneeling down, "Dad... you'll be fine, we can get help."
<DeathStar> <Cran> I ... designed Zeraphna...to be flawed, in the hopes you...would beat her. But...you've always...seemingly lacked the will to fight.
<Chad`Winters> 6Jerks his body around, the blade slicing through the his tact suit and into his chest. He lands slightly hunched over, his hand covering his chest.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash stands ready. Darien begins to circle around behind him.
<Seraphna> "Flawed?"
<DeathStar> <Cran> I didn't ... put much humanity into her programming. 6He wheezes in pain.
<Seraphna> "Dad... come on let's get you help..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad glances down a the blood then slides into a fighting stance, his left hand held out and his right hand held low
<DeathStar> 6* Cran shakes his head. "Johnson put something into me to ensure...I would aid him. I needed you to ... bust me up... just enough so I could talk. It's too late for me. I need...to tell you..the truth."
<DeathStar> 6* Slash jerks right, then left, then zags for Chad, stabbing at his shoulder and leg.
<Seraphna> "Talk quick... we can fix you... I know we can..."
* Seraphna looks around for a way out.
* Chad`Winters twists on his other leg, tilting his body to fit between the blades, he swings his left hand towards Slash's left shoulder, aiming to pierce a nerve cluster.
<DeathStar> <Cran> It began with Ariel's arrival....6He takes ragged breaths. "Everything. She..had companion...originated...power unlike...anything. Venerator...took it..and hid it...never told anyone..where...now V.I. is looking...for it."
<DeathStar> 6* Slash brings up a knee to block the hand.
* Chad`Winters twists his hand at the last second, driving it under the kneecap.
<Seraphna> "Alright..."
<DeathStar> 6* Slash attempts to leap away.
* Seraphna conitnues to look for a way out, puilling out her datapad, trying to snd out a message.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Kill...Ariel. 6He says slowly. "I designed you...to kill Ariel. Before it is...too late."
* Seraphna blinks
<DeathStar> <Cran> If...companion..awakens...the entire...universe...will end...
<DeathStar> <Cran> Too strong...for...anyone. 6He closes his eyes.
<Seraphna> "Dad? Come on... hold on..."
* Chad`Winters reorientates himself and dashes in towards Slasher, throwing out a punch towards his stomach and then a left hook .
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Slash
<DeathStar> 6* He reaches into his pocket, holding out a needle to her. "For you..."
<Seraphna> "The cure...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Slash holds out his blade so Slasher will punch into it.
<DeathStar> <Cran> Yes. You'll need...your gifts...to win. 6He slumps and his hand drops.
* Chad`Winters quickly swings his hand out, it grazing the outside of the warp field.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash slashes outward to counter.
* Seraphna takes it, injecting herself, she checks to see if it's safe to move him.
<Seraphna> "Hold on Dad... I'll be damned if you die now... I just got you back..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis leans against the wall. "I am detecting no brain waves from him."
<Seraphna> "No... No... he has to live... we need to get help..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rushes behind, stabbing at Slash. Slash twists, being grazed by the sword, but he slashes out against Darien's chest.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is too late.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad dashes in, his left hand moving to jab at Slashe's left side, an inch away, Chad's body suddenly snaps forward, his left hand formign a fist and striking upwards violently.
* Seraphna shakes him a little, "No...dad wake up... come on..."
* Seraphna starts to cry, holding him.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances away, looking for a way out.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash is hit and stumbles back.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad plants his left foot, leaping off it then punching downwards for Slash's face.
<DeathStar> 6* Slash is hit in the face and hits the ground.
* Chad`Winters takes several steps back, his hand moving across his chest again as it rises and falls from deep breathes
<DeathStar> <Darien> You need to strike the final blow before he gets up again.
* Seraphna picks him up slowly, "Let's find my brother and get out of here..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We would need to find a way out.
<Seraphna> "I can make the jump now... are your powers returning yet?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... jump where? 6She eyes the ceiling.
<Seraphna> "We fell through... didn't we?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad dashes forward sliding over Slash, both his hands launch outwards, his hands twisting around as he begins hitting various spots over Slash's body.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> There is no exit above us.
<Seraphna> "He was walking that way..." *she nods her head* "...though we might find enemies that way."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Chad beating up Slash. He shakes his head, takes the energy sword, and brings it down on Slash.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<DeathStar> <Darien> Now lets find the girls --- 6Suddenly the entire facility shakes for everyone. "Great, a self-destruct sequence."
<Seraphna> "You could comment you know..." *she tries to make a joke, her voice shakey, clearly trying to hide her feelings right now*
* Chad`Winters stands upright looking at Darien. "Let's go..."
<Seraphna> "...Let's go."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis leans against the wall as it shakes.
<Seraphna> "Come on Erevis."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slides over to the floor, jamming his energy sword in, trying to cut through the trap door.
* Chad`Winters reaches down, picking up both warp blades and walks over to Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head toward the ceiling.
* Seraphna looks up
* Chad`Winters flicks the blades on and jams them into the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Together, Chad and Darien cut open the trap door.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> An exit. 6She notes dryly to Sera.
<Seraphna> "You need help up?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
* Seraphna sighs and leaps up and out, holding Cran's body. Seeing if she follows.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the dead Cran. "Seems I was right."
<DeathStar> 6* He leans back in, holding out a hand to Erevis. Who jumps up and grab it. Darien lifts her up.
* Chad`Winters eyes Cran's body. "How long has he been dead?
<Seraphna> "A few moments."
<Seraphna> "I'll explain when we get out of here."
* Chad`Winters looks over at Serena, eyeing her.
<Chad`Winters> Erevis, you unharmed?
* Seraphna looks back at him, not a hint of guilt on her face.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will be fine.
<DeathStar> 6* The base shakes again. <Darien> Lets go. 6He moves for the exit.
* Seraphna moves as well
* Chad`Winters turns making his way to the exit, blood still coming out of his chest wound.
<DeathStar> 6* As they exit the base, they would find Janus shuttles waiting on them. And William Spade.
* Seraphna rushes her father to the nearest medical shuttle, despite what little good it would do.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade watches Sera move the body to the doctors. He glances back at Chad, clearly seeking an explanation.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad shakes his head, obviously not sure himself, then nods towards Serena.
<Seraphna> "Somethign in his chest, attacked his heart, please, see what you can do..."
<DeathStar> 6* The medics glance at each other, obviously not sure what they're suppose to do.
<Seraphna> NRP: DAMN YOU FOXDIE PROGRAM!!!
<Chad`Winters> NRP: I'm sure it wasn't the punch to the chest by you.
<Seraphna> NRP: I hit him in the midsection, abs.
<Seraphna> NRP: And it was a kick.
<Chad`Winters> <Chad> What was he doing here Serena?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade walks up behind Sera, putting an arm on her shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien and Erevis stand there to the side.
<Seraphna> "He was forced to work for Doctor Thompson."
<Seraphna> "He fought me to get me to knock him out of it."
<Chad`Winters> ....Shit...Darien what happened to him?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think he got away.
<Seraphna> "Dad was forced to manufacture my virus, and create Zeraphna."
<Chad`Winters> Son of a...6Chad falls to one knee, his left hand planting on the ground.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Did he say anything else?
<Seraphna> "We have bigger problems." *she looks at them both, her face changed from before, the inherent guilt vanished, age apparent* "Yes... but we'll talk about that in provate."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... he told you something. 6He notes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Seraphna> "My purpose."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And what is that, Serena?
<Seraphna> "Oddly enough, save the universe."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... 6He eyes Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs Chad and lifts him up onto the medical table. "Treat this one, boys. Save the dead people for the ground."
* Chad`Winters moves his other hand across his chest as he's picked up.
* Seraphna notices for the first time, "GOd Chad... what happened??"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien talks in a low tone to Erevis, who says something back. Darien turns and walks off.
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad glances over at the two, then looks over at Serena. "I'm fine."
<DeathStar> 6* The medical people begin to treat him.
* Seraphna looks at the medical people, "Don't let him go till he's actually fine. He's stubborn."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns and begins to move away as well.
<Chad`Winters> Erevis.
<Seraphna> "Chad, I'll tell you everything he said in a bit."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad stands up off the table, he looks over at Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am going. 6She notes. "Get better soon, Chad." 6She keeps walking away. Spade stares after her, then looks at Sera.
<Chad`Winters> He's just going to use you Erevis.
* Seraphna looks at Spade and mouths something to him.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We all use everyone. 6She notes to Chad and moves out of sight.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade raises a brow, then looks at Chad, then Sera. He shakes his head once.
* Chad`Winters sighs, hanging his head as he pulled back onto the table.
* Seraphna then looks Spade square in the eyes, "You and me need to have a very long talk."
<DeathStar> <Spade> I agree.
<Chad`Winters> Her powers are back...to what extent I don't konw, but I'm sure she knows what you know Serena.
<Seraphna> "I know she does, which means we'll have to move."
<DeathStar> <Spade> And what are we going to do?
* Seraphna looks away from them both for a moment, before looking back, "Kill Ariel."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade takes a resigned breath, perhaps that she said it in front of Chad.
<Chad`Winters> 6Looks over at Serena, a dangerous look on his face. "For what reason!"
<Seraphna> "Venerator hid Origin in her. She is Origin, and when she awakens... this universe is over."
<DeathStar> <Spade> That would explain the Dragoon War that your father pushed for - you fighting Ariel. And my orders to terminate Ariel.
<Seraphna> "His final orders were to kill her before it's too late."
<Chad`Winters> Like hell I'll kill her let alone let any of you two touch her.
<Chad`Winters> 6Stands up again, this time shoving the medics away.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade stands there. "I'm going with what Serena said."
<Seraphna> "You think I want to kill her?"
<Chad`Winters> Yes I do, otherwise you wouldn't even consider it.
<Seraphna> "Look, I'll tell you exactly what he said."
<Seraphna> "It began with Ariel's arrival. Everything. She had compainion... originated power unlike... anything."
<Seraphna> "Venerator took it... and hit it, never told anyone... where... now VI is looking for it."
<Chad`Winters> ...How do you get that Venerator hid it in Ariel?
<DeathStar> 6* Spade listens.
<Seraphna> "I drew that from his order to kill her."
<Seraphna> "He made me specifically to kill her."
<Chad`Winters> We don't even know what Origin is, killing her may release it.
<DeathStar> <Spade> There is some truth in this, Chad. I recall there were two aliens that landed 11 years ago. Venerator and Cran decided to use Ariel to make the Dragoons, but I never found out what happened to the second alien.
<Seraphna> "...A second alien?"
<Chad`Winters> Her companion.
* Seraphna slaps her forehead.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I had thought the danger from Ariel was simply that she would trigger something to occur that would give Venerator more power, so I attempted to stop her. However, it could be Ariel's being alive could awaken this second alien.
<Seraphna> "But why does he want us to kill her?"
<DeathStar> <Spade> After all, Venerator specifically wanted Ariel under his control.
<Seraphna> "Right... she's a key then."
* Chad`Winters nods to Spade, getting the picture. "Why not just send her clear across the universe, as far away as possible
<DeathStar> <Spade> Destroy the key, you cannot turn the lock.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I'm guessing that won't matter.
<Seraphna> "And she'd always be a danger."
<Seraphna> "Knowing Mother... she would likely destroy herself sooner then live like that."
<Chad`Winters> That's assuming that she's the catalyst, this companion could awake regardless.
<DeathStar> <Spade> I'm sure you father would not order her death if that were the case.
<Chad`Winters> And if that's the case, it might be angrier to find Ariel not alive.
<Seraphna> "NO I trust Dad on this."
<Seraphna> "Remember he not only made me to kill Ariel, but to be the next mother."
<Seraphna> "He planned on her death and knew at least the consequences of it."
<DeathStar> <Spade> Yes. Serena, I will handle this. Continue to live your peaceful existence. 6He turns to go.
<Seraphna> "No."
<Seraphna> "William. I'm fighting."
<Chad`Winters> 6Growls, his eyes narrowing.
<DeathStar> <Spade> Look at Chad. Do you believe the others will accept you if you kill Ariel?
<DeathStar> <Spade> Leave this to someone who is capable of doing it. 6He steps onto his shuttle.
<Seraphna> "William Spade."
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances at Sera.
<Seraphna> "The next time you call me incapable or weak, I will knock you a new one."
<Seraphna> "Do you get me?"
<DeathStar> <Spade> .... I understand.
<Seraphna> "I have to at least confront her."
<Seraphna> "I want answers. And I will not sit back and just let people do this while I hide in a meaningless existance."
<Chad`Winters> It appears the great Serena has reverted back to her old self...You never learn.
* Seraphna shakes her head
<Seraphna> "Maybe you don't."
<Seraphna> "I just said I'd confront her."
<Seraphna> "I don;t want her to die or be used."
<Seraphna> "All of my actions till this point have been due to my lack of will."
<DeathStar> NRP: <Spade> Lack of me.
<Chad`Winters> And you don't even have the will to carry out 'father's' last wish...
<Seraphna> "Oh if it comes to it."
* Seraphna eyes him
<Seraphna> "What the hell is your game Chad?"
<Chad`Winters> You can't beat her, especially not if you plan on telling her.
<Seraphna> "One minute you're berating me for wanting to follow it, the next chiding me for hesitating."
<Seraphna> "And now you're thinking of how to beat her!"
<Chad`Winters> I think of how to beat everyone. 6There seems to be no joke behind his words
* Seraphna nods quietly, "Okay."
<Seraphna> "Chad."
<Seraphna> "How would you deal with this?"
<Chad`Winters> And why should I tell you? Why should I help you kill someone I can consider a friend?
<Seraphna> "If I did not see you as both my elder and my brother, I'd knock your teeth in for that."
<Seraphna> "She has always accepted me, always been a friend. Why the hell do you think I 'failed' during the Dragoon incident?"
<Chad`Winters> <Chad> If you can't see past that, then theirs nothign you can do.
* Seraphna does hit him this time
<Seraphna> "Will you stop with teh hypocratical bullshit!"
<Seraphna> "You always dance, always double back!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad's head snaps to the side, he moves his hand upto his jaw, rubbing it. "Still as blind as ever...You see her as friend, as someone you feel for...And you think you can kill someone like that in cold blood?
<Seraphna> "No. No I don't."
<Seraphna> "But if I have to kill her to save everyone else?"
<Chad`Winters> <Chad> Aslong as you see her that way, you'll never be able to do it. You wouldn't be able to live with the guilt on your shoulders.
<Chad`Winters> Take spades advise, go home. 6He turns moving to a back of a shuttle.
<Chad`Winters> Take spades advise, go home. 6He turns moving to a back of a shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Spade glances at Sera.
<Seraphna> "I need more time..." *she sighs and puts a hand on his shoulder* "I'm sorry for hitting you."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad steps away, letting her hand fall. "You still don't get it. Time isn't something that will stand still for you to make a decision.
<Seraphna> "I jsut don't get you."
<Seraphna> "I wish I did."
<Seraphna> "I'm going to go speak with Will now... I'll be in contact after. And Chad... it'll be my choice."

Session Close: Thu Oct 19 22:29:33 2006


Session Start: Thu Oct 19 19:20:37 2006
Session Ident: #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
* Now talking in #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
* Jackieness has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<Chad`Winters> Stardate: About 20 minutes after Hotaru and Em Vanquished the evil Thomas Garland.
* Jackieness is now known as Myria
<Chad`Winters> 6The crew, deciding that tending Hotaru's wounds were more impotant sit in Aqurius' infirmary.
<DeathStar> 6* John stands there. "You think you can patch up these holes?"
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru looks hurt, but somehow content
* Ariel is now known as Em`
<Em`> "I... well, I'll give it my best. She's not exactly human..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Jesus Christ...Did the guy shove a scythe through you?!
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Basically."
<DeathStar> <John> If you die from infection, can I have your CDs?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Oh...
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... mercenary, aren't you?"
<DeathStar> <John> Well, yeah!
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Since you admit it... you and Em decide between you."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why can't I decide who get's the CD's?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: "Because you suck."
<DeathStar> <John> ... Well, you better heal. I need to speak with Shiva. I'll leave these two here with you. 6He leans over and gives her a pat on the head.
<Em`> "John can have the CDs. I get the stereo."
<Chad`Winters> NRP: I read that as I need to spank Shiva.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Don't worry, I plan to."
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL!
<DeathStar> NRP: Yeah, that's what he said.
<DeathStar> 6* John moves to step out, walking down the hallways of the Aquarius for the loading bay.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves to follow John.
* Em` keeps working on patching Hotaru up.
<DeathStar> <John> You stay here, Dias. "Two". Learn to count. 6He shakes his head.
* Myria is working on the consoles on the bridge to make sure the buttons don't stick on the hyperdrive again!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 6Looks down at his toes then up at John. "Ohhhh....
<DeathStar> 6* John points at the medical room. "Protect the girls."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias waves his hands dismissively in the air as he heads back into the medical room.
<Em`> "...hand me that... thingymabob, would you?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Thanks for everything."
<DeathStar> 6* John exits the Aquarius, approaching the building again. He takes a deep breath, then moves to enter it.
<Em`> "Hey, we're allies, right?"
<Chad`Winters> 6The door opens easily for him, apparently somoene was expecting him
<DeathStar> 6* John steps inside, letting the door close behind him.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Yeah, but.. that was still above and beyond the call of duty."
<Chad`Winters> 
<Chad`Winters> 6A holovid can be heard in one of the rooms.
<DeathStar> 6* John approaches the room
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva can be seen wearing rather plain clothes, it would literally appear that she is under house arrest. The apartment is dull, nothing like the business office they met her in last time.
<Em`> "Hey, I could hardly let you die."
<DeathStar> 6* Stepping inside, John stares at her. "So tell me. Who's idea was this?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "You could've been killed yourself... but thanks for caring enough to put your own life in danger."
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva turns her head to look at him. "Awfully late...must be a rather vivid detour...You mean the apartment?
* Myria then heads for the medical bay.
<DeathStar> <John> All of it.
* Em` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Well I made a slight plea bargain by giving them all info that they needed. In return they give me a lighter sentence, and this apartment until my trial. I'll also get a minimum security prison.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: All the easier to escape from
<DeathStar> <John> And why the charade? I mean, none of you guys had to do anything.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> What makes you think this is a charade?
* Em` has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<DeathStar> <John> Because clearly I don't trust you.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Everyone must eventually pay for their sins John.
<Em`> "I'm thinking... if I spend more time around you guys, I should get some proper combat training."
<Myria> What everyone doing here? *said as she walks into the medical bay*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can beat the crap out of you till you learn.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "If you're going to do that whenever I'm in trouble, that'd be good... though you're good already."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> That's how Cheryl taught me.
<DeathStar> <John> Yet who's making you pay for your sins now?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... Cheryl's not a very good teacher."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Isn't this what you wanted in the first place John? For us to be exposed and the charade to end?
<DeathStar> <John> You're not answering my questions.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Like hell, I kick ass now.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "But you didn't have to be beaten up to learn... and you don't seem to have learnt the main lesson that that's supposed to teach."
<Myria> Ummmm?
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru eyes Myria from the bed, wounded
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You think this is a conspiracy then? A pre-emptive strike in case you had more copies?
<DeathStar> <John> Still not the answer to my question.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ....And what was that?
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I'm making myself pay for my sins.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Not to expose yourself to unneccessary danger."
<DeathStar> <John> Oh really? Everyone of your group decided to turn himself in.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I suppose with you, maybe it was the best teaching method."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Four of us made their escape before they could be detained, the others have tho.
<DeathStar> 6* John nods his head slowly. "Right."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Look at the holo-news. It's all documented. Infact you can even visit Odin in jail already.
<DeathStar> <John> So why do it?
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I got tired of I believe.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: OF IT!
<DeathStar> <John> ...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No...I'm sure the lesson was to make sure I'm ready to kick the crap out of anyone incase I find myself in unneccesary danger
* Ari[AWAY] has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You know how troublesome it can be to live a lie every day of your life? Not being able to let anyone get close too close to you? Always keeping the one you love at an arm's length away?
<Myria> Ummm...excuse me you three?
<DeathStar> <John> Pardon me if I don't get misty eyed at this speech.
* Em` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Ari[AWAY] is now known as Em`
<Em`> "Hmm?"
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I don't expect you to John, how could I.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 6Looks over at her. "What?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "What is it?"
<DeathStar> <John> You know, you would have broke Katrina's heart if she were alive. She would have been disgusted with all this. And you.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva turns her head away at his words, her gaze falling onto the floor.
<Myria> ...what happened?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I found Garland... he's gone psycho, and decided that he should kill me for some obscure reason."
<DeathStar> <John> And this pity party afterwards? That disgusts me anymore. Here you sit, doing what? Awaiting punishment? Getting 'justice'? I say fuck that. I say you're hiding here because it's easier to take jail than do something truly profund. Fixing thigns.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Something about John being a troublemaker."
<Myria> Oh...
* Em` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Em` has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Why are you here John? You wanted all of us to pay, especially Loki.
<DeathStar> <John> I don't accept this sort of payment. You should be out there doing something to make things better. Like you always told Katrina you were doing.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Last time I checked, I was a criminal of the state, leaving this apartment would violate the terms of my agreement. Not to mention, I have very limited access to The holonet.
* Alicia has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
* Alicia has left #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<DeathStar> <John> Tch. 6He shakes his head, turning to go.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: Okay, freaky
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: I had 48 second lag until I brought my clone in
* Ari[AWAY] has joined #PAXSeason7-20TeamJohn
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> ....Wait...Are you offering me a chance to leave this all behind and do good?
* Em` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <John> If you think you could do actual good. 6He glances over his shoulder.
* Ari[AWAY] is now known as Em`
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You're willing to break several laws to free one person? 6She slowly stands up, eyeing him.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So ladies...When do you think you'll all make out again?
<Myria> ...make...out?
<DeathStar> <John> If it was the right thing to do, then I would do anything.
<Em`> "...what?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Well, even if we were going to, it wouldn't be with you around."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well why the hell not?
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I see...Then if you'll have me, I will come
<DeathStar> <John> .... I just want one thing clear. If you ever deceive me again - it'll be the last. 6He notes seriously, studying her face.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Because I, for one, don't want you watching!"
* Em` gives Hotaru a weird look
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh but if John was...Gee it's be a regular party then.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "That goes for if I ever make out with John too, by the way."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> 6Stares back at him, her face not showing anything but a slight hint of joy.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Like I'd watch him, blargh.
<Myria> Making out?
<Em`> *translates* "Kissing affectionately."
<DeathStar> <John> Now lets go and do something. 6He begins to head for the exit.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva follows out behind John, eyeing the exit quietly.
<DeathStar> <John> Problem?
* Myria stares at Em and then at Hotaru.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... what? It was Dias who suggested it!"
* Myria stares at Dias.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "That's better."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Sorry...6She scratches the back of her head. "Just not used to leaving with out a police escort.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> They did it before!
<DeathStar> <John> Yeaaah. 6He throws open the door and steps outside.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... when was this?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva steps out with him.
<DeathStar> 6* John tilts his head back, glancing up at the night sky. "War is coming, Shiva. The Tsivrixsh are about to attack the Cartel."
* Myria stares back at the pair.
* Em` stays out of this.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Excuse me?
<DeathStar> <John> The Tsivrixsh are about to attack the Cartel. Its one reason I came. They claim you sent Aielin to spy on them.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> The Cartel have found the Tsiv to dangerous to play game of espionage with, we wouldn't give them an opportunity like that.
<DeathStar> <John> I believe you. We found a parasite in his brain.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps into the Aquarius loading bay.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> They need to be warned....
<DeathStar> <John> Yes. 6He moves up the stairs, tapping an intercomm button. "Everyone to the bridge."
* Myria nods and heads to the bridge!
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva follows after him.
<DeathStar> 6* John leads Shiva along, bumping into Myria.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> He's back. YAY! 6He runs to the bridge.
<DeathStar> 6* John glances at everyone who's gathered at the bridge.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> *comm* "I'd better be exempt."
<Myria> What is happening?
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva looks at John's rag tage crew then over at him.
* Em` checks on Hotaru's condition, then heads to the bridge
<DeathStar> <John> Well, Shiva. 6He glances at her. "I guess it's time for you to warn the Cartel about the Tsivrixsh plans."
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva nods, moving over to a terminal and begins typing on it.
<DeathStar> <John> It might... give them a bit of a better fighting chance. In the end. 6He notes, though it's clear the Tsivrixsh will mostly like win anyway.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> It'll atleast allow us to get as many citizens out of here safely.
<DeathStar> <John> That was my plan.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> It's sent...
<DeathStar> <John> I guess we've done everything we can do. 6He glances at everyone.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> 6Sits there rubbing her forehead.
<Myria> But what we do about finding who did parasite?
<DeathStar> <John> There is nothin we can do.
<DeathStar> <John> We're one ship, the Tsivrixsh have a fleet. We can just keep the truth and let everyone know the Cartel were set up.
<DeathStar> 6* John sits down in his captain's chair, looking tired all of a sudden.
<Myria> Ok...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You ok chief? 6He looks at John questiongly.
<DeathStar> <John> No, not really.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva turns to look at John, a worried look on her face
<Em`> "I guess... you can't win them all."
<DeathStar> <John> The idea of war is tiring.
<DeathStar> <John> Well, I guess we should get out of here before the fireworks start. 6He grabs the controls, lifting the Aquarius up off the pad.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> It's inevitible just as the oceans must wax and wane
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> *comm* Someone mind filling me in on where we're going now?
<DeathStar> 6* John glances at the comm. "Someone go hold her hand or something."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 6Shakes his head no. "She'll cut mine off.
<DeathStar> <John> That just means she loves you.
* Em` glances at John, then heads back to the infirmary. "Babies."
* Myria goes with Em to the infirmary as well.
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius flies above the Cartel city and John pauses it there, glancing down.
<Chad`Winters> 6Shiva glances out the view port, looking down at the Cartel city.
<DeathStar> <John> I always loved this city.
<DeathStar> 6* John lets out his breath through his nose. "You remember the first time we met here, Shiva?"
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I do...If I recall correctly it was at a bar and you were about to take on a Valrai and a To'lao.
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah. And it ended with sex. 6He nods his head, pausing. "With you, not them."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I'd like to hope so...
* Em` plops down in a chair in the infirmary. "This is going to get messy..."
<DeathStar> <John> ... 'last one out turns off the lights'. 6He says. "I think that's what the bartender told us when we finally were told to go."
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Where's he going? Off to take on the entire Tsiv empire or something?"
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> And you were such a gentleman to let me turn them off.
<DeathStar> <John> That's my style. 6He grabs the controls and flies the ship up for the sky.
<Em`> "I'm not sure. But this world is in trouble."
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I figured as much..."
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Hey, how long until I can be up and about, anyway?"
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You never answered my question John.
<DeathStar> <John> Which one was that?
* Em` considers, "Well... when you're feeling better. And you won't risk internal bleeding."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> Why you're doing this for me?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 6Stares at the two.
<DeathStar> <John> Faith.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> When did you become a man of the clergy?
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, I have no faith in Gods or whatnot. I have faith in people. That we can all change.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> I see...
<DeathStar> <John> As much as I like to participate in battles, I think this is one we should avoid.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> As hard as it is for me to do such a thing, it is the best for everyone on this ship.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You always make me miss the good fights...
<DeathStar> <John> You could stay if you want. 6He offers.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can't fight a battlecruiser!
<DeathStar> <John> Sure you can. I'll throw you out an airlock and you can go punch it.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You think that'd work?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Alright... I just wish John wouldn't go off and go call meetings on the bridge before anyone says anything like this."
<Em`> "Well, you could have requested he keep the comm open."
<DeathStar> <John> You never know until you try.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks off to the side, apparently contemplating it
<DeathStar> 6* John rolls his eyes and enters the coordinates. He yanks the lever and sends them into hyperspace.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> ".. yeah.. that would've worked."
<DeathStar> <John> I'm going to go see Hotaru. 6He stands up, moving off the bridge.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> 6Turns eyeing Dias. "I see the pipsqueek is still alive."
<DeathStar> 6* John steps onto into the medical room. "So, how is my favorite Alpha doing?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'm not a pipsqueek!
* Em` awws.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Better.. but I'm still wondering when you were planning on telling me where we're going."
<DeathStar> <John> Nowhere, really. I figure it best we all vanish for a while.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Yeah, that seems a good idea."
<Em`> "Out of the way of people with guns?"
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah, that's the plan. 6He glances at Myria. "Sorry, but the Erusian can't stop the Tsivrixsh this time."
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I'd be worried if you thought she could."
* Myria just looks puzzled.
<DeathStar> 6* John pulls out sock puppets, describing the situation for Myria.
* Em` wonders when he had the time to make sock puppets
<Myria> Oh...
<DeathStar> <John> You understand?
<Myria> Yes!
<DeathStar> <John> Good. 6He eyes Em looking at him. "What?"
<Em`> "...sock puppets?"
<DeathStar> <John> You never know when you need to explain something.
<Em`> "......"
<DeathStar> 6* John holds up his Em sock puppet.
<DeathStar> <John in Em Voice> John's the greatest.
<Em`> "...how many of those do you HAVE?"
<DeathStar> <John> ... one of everyone.
<Myria> Want see mine!
<DeathStar> 6* John holds up the Myria one - a blue sock.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Okay, I'm curious. How bad is mine?"
<DeathStar> 6* John holds up one with a tiny scythe.
