* Logging #taw to 'logs\Espernet\#taw.20070614.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: Immediately Thereafter
<DeathStar> Location: Earth
<DeathStar> 6* Xanatos is dead.
* Xanatos is dead.
<DeathStar> 6* Very dead
* Seraphna watches Xanatos be dead.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...6Looks over at Xanatos. 1"I think he's dead...That sucks."
* Junior folds his arms, shaking his head as he looks over to Xanatos.
<Cassandra`> Damn...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina begins CPR on Xanatos.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... I feel bad for ever hating him..."
<DeathStar> 6* John stands there, staring down at Xanatos. The older Zephyr just sighs, glancing off where their attacker went
* Seraphna looks over to Aya, checking on her, this Sera never really knew the guy.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares down at Xanatos
* Junior watches Kat give the soul-less corpse CPR. He bites his tongue, chosing to say nothing as he looks away.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Shouldn't we try to, you know...patch him up? I mean he has a huge whole in his throat.
<DeathStar> <John> Right, well, he's dead. Again. So, what's the plan now?
* Ariel is now known as Setsuna`
<Cassandra`> ...now I wish I had that girl shot when she first came on board... *crosses her arms*
<Junior> Cremation.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Xanatos' body jerks
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... the hell?"
* Michiru stares
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> GAH! 6He leaps back. 1"IT MOVED!"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina jerks back.
<Junior> That's normal. Bodies twitch as their repective systems shut down.
<DeathStar> 6* John screams like a girl
* Seraphna raises a brow, reforming a gun.
<DeathStar> <John> ZOMBIE!
* Setsuna` looks to Cassandra, "She's not the same as the one from out time." She doesn't notice the body.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Quick, someone destroy the head!
<DeathStar> <Katrina> DON'T YOU DARE
<Cassandra`> Still...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> But it's a zombie!
* Xanatos jerks again, his hand presses against the ground as he pulls himself up to a standing position.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina scrambles to her feet. "Xanatos...? Why am I getting no emotions or thoughts...?"
<Junior> Zombie, indeed. *nods sagely*
* Xanatos just stands there, staring at nothing with clouded eyes.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Junior's right. 6He steps out, holding his shoulder
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'm just animating his body.
* Seraphna aims her gun at his head, a shot charging.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I'm getting nothing either... it's like he has no soul."
<Setsuna`> "...why?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Don't let it bite me! 6He slides behind John, shoving him towards Xanatos
<DeathStar> <Wind> Because he didn't die naturally. His soul was taken. If we can get it back, I can reattach it to the body.
<DeathStar> 6* John scrambles, flailing his hands.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Save me John!
<Junior> You didn't strike me as a necrophile, Wind.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Then we should do that."
* Seraphna eyes Wind, quirking a brow before dismissing her weapon.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Katrina didn't want him dead.
<Cassandra`> Then we should find a means of preserving him while we go hunting...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stares at Xanatos, then at Junior and Wind.
* Xanatos makes no actions, he just stands there apparently awaiting furthur orders from Wind.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'll keep his body ... functioning until we do. I can't promise his brain will be working properly afterwards.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
<DeathStar> <John> Who coudl pormise that?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *doesn't say it. It'd be disrespectful*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'm sure we won't notice any difference.
* Junior leers over to Wind. "Ah yes, nothing selfless in keeping the body alive. Only serving the ones you deem important. Reality oligarchy."
<Cassandra`> It won't be a mjor difference from before.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Yes, your method of letting him just die is so much more noble, Hianule.
<Michiru> "Well, it's better than having him this way, at least."
* Seraphna puts a hand gently on Aya's shoulder.
* Michiru said that about Wind's brain comment
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances at Sera, apparantly just watching detatched, then glances back at the scene. She glances toward Chad.
<Junior> It's not the results--it's the reasons.
<DeathStar> <Wind> He died unnaturally, so we do nothing. Of course.
* Chad`Winters stands in the entrance to the underground system. 1"It's because he's competition."
<DeathStar> 6* KAtrina glances at Chad now.
* Seraphna smiles a little at her, as much as she ever does these days
<DeathStar> <Wind> Junior having such a petty emotion. Come now.
* Setsuna` rolls her eyes
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... can we just figure out how to get Xan's soul back without anyone dying?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> I assure you it's simply because he thinks it's wrong.
<Chad`Winters> He's human now. He'll have plenty of them now.
* Junior folds his arms.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I sorely doubt it.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... we need to find that girl. 6She just marches off, clearly angry.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Hell have no fury like a woman scorned....
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *follows Katrina*
<DeathStar> 6* Wind watches Xanatos follow her. "Odd, I don't recall ordering that."
<Michiru> "... maybe there's still some of him left?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> The soul is all we have, girl.
* Junior watches Kat walks off, taking a deep breath. He thinks to himself a moment, as if ruminating over his role in the coming matters. He glances back to Wind, gritting his teeth slightly before casually placing his hands in his pockets.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Right. Lets go hunting, people. 6She turns to follow
* Chad`Winters lets out a slow breathe then moves to follow after them all.
<DeathStar> <Wind> If you think it so wrong, I can drop the body, Junior.
<Junior> *looks back to him, closing his eyes for a moment* You know, Wind? It's not my place to say.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya decides to tag along. Nothing better to do.
<DeathStar> <Wind> When has that stopped you? 6He turns to walk after the team.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *runs after them* Wait for me!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just claps his hands together and moves after them.
* Michiru looks to John, then goes to follow
<DeathStar> 6* John stands there, watching them go.
<Junior> More than you would suspect.
<Michiru> "... aren't you coming too?"
<DeathStar> <John> And fight zombies? Hell no
* Junior walks along, lagging behind as he glances to John.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Wait...There's more zombies? 6He pauses looking at John.
<DeathStar> <John> Where there's one, there's more.
<Michiru> "Take care then..."
* Seraphna looks at Aya and motions for her to stay with Michi.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I think I'll be staying then...6He begins stepping backwards towards John
* Xanatos just walks along behind Katrina.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya never sees the gesture, already far ahead.
* Seraphna sighs silently and runs after her.
* Michiru is already moving to follow the group too, anyway
* Chad`Winters watches Serena run off towards Aya, he just grunts as he walks after them.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina walks along, trying to pick up a trail of thoughts, mumbling darkly to herself. Zephyr walks along, deciding to play the calm, reasonable one
<Cassandra`> ...why do they keep talking about zombies...sheesh...
<Setsuna`> "For trying to save the world, we're damn disoranized."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "It's always worked so far."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *tries to pick up a trail of thoughts herself*
<DeathStar> 6* Wind walks along, keeping Xan in sight, but keeping himself detatched from the group.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I know you're angry, but we're probably going to head into a trap. You should be rethinking this. 6* Katrina flat out ignores her
* Junior walks slowly with his eyes closed, thinking as his boots crunch against the dried earth. Listening only to that as he lags behind, his mind floating with the last few days' events.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya walks along near Chad, giving him looks.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *skips along...bouncy bouncy*
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "So, any plans on how to beat 'Billy' and regain Xan's soul?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Clearly this is going to be a John McCormick battle plan.
<Junior> It won't be simple.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Made up on the fly?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Pretty much. 6She seems angry
* Chad`Winters reaches into his tact belt and pulls out two pills, swallowing them.
<Junior> If she has the Dark Rune, as it appears, it'll be a lot like our last fight involving it.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind walks along, his hands in his pockets.
<Chad`Winters> Except she isn't irrational.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "What happened then?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> I killed you.
<Junior> She certainly didn't strike me as rational.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... oh."
<DeathStar> <Wind> If it makes you feel better, you deserved it.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I... probably did."
* Seraphna walks with Aya, looking about for threats, she looks down at Aya, noticing her looks.
<Chad`Winters> Her attacks were carefully thought out, every move she made was planned.
<DeathStar> <Wind> You can be insane and rational. Look at me.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses in her trek, glancing back at Wind now.
<Setsuna`> "I rather save her... but if she's batshit crazy in this timeline, she's batshit crazy."
* Junior takes a breath. "The answer isn't going to be an easy one, but step one is dealing with the rune, or finding some way of neutralizing it." he glances to Wind. "We don't be able to simply tear her matter apart, so I think we'll need a more conventional plan."
* Xanatos stops whenever Katrina does.
<Chad`Winters> And here I thought you just suffered from an inflated ego.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I do.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Is Katrina controlling Xan?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'm not, in the least.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances arond, pulling down his shades as he scans the dark horizon, looking thoughtful.
<Michiru> "... do we know anything about how to neutralize runes?"
<Junior> You got me. I would think opposites would cancel one another out, but I don't suspect we have the holy one with us. That's just a postulation, though, seeing as I don't understand anything about them except the ice one in my pocket is pretty handy.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> This woman has killed dozens of good men. We can't just take her prisoner easily.
<Chad`Winters> She seems to enjoy games...
<DeathStar> <Wind> If we damage her enough, I believe I can rip the soul free from her.
<Junior> That's a very big if.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I confess, my powers are almost non-existant.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Maybe we should go with that. Unless someone has a better idea."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...where we come from...Billy is my friend... ... ...sort of.
* Junior looks at Wind a moment, then falls deeper into thought.
* Chad`Winters glances behind him at Aya.
<Junior> You're right, Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances away.
* Seraphna is looking at Chad as he does.
<Junior> She does like games.
<DeathStar> <Wind> The child, or the adult? Can you be sure she is the same?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "You're friends with that thing?"
<Michiru> "..."
<Junior> Before she stabbed Xan, he was able to make her hesitate. As soon as he became unentertainig is when she became dangerous.
<Chad`Winters> Xanatos was able to stall her by making a bet with her...
* Setsuna` pauses. "Where did she get that skill of hers anyways? There's not many places she could learn it."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I see.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Maybe she picked it up from an enemy.."
<Junior> Do you suspect it would be so easy, Chad?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... 6She glances at Xanatos sadly.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I noticed the child liked you, Junior. Do you know why?
* Chad`Winters looks at Serena, then looks over at Junior. 1"No, I'm not an expert in demi-god's with adolescent mindsets and soul ripping powers."
<Junior> *flatly* I regularly threatened to throw her out of the airlock if she crossed me.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Sort of friends...when we attacked the Dark One base, we found her there.
<Michiru> "She's pretty strange."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I see. No wonder she is your only friend.
* Junior looks back to Chad, "Had to ask, at least."
* Xanatos makes no movements, his clouded gaze just remains focused ahead.
* Seraphna seems bothered about something. She looks down at Aya and signs something to her, one hand covering the other.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I don't think that'll work now."
<DeathStar> <Wind> No, there has to be something more that appeals to her about you. 6He circles Junior
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just nods.
* Junior glances back to Wind. "I also was the only one who didn't treat her like a child."
* Seraphna pts her shoulder and looks about again.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I think it's death.
* Junior stops.
<Junior> Get to the point.
<DeathStar> <Wind> You're dying. She's about death. She probably finds you fascinating.
<DeathStar> <Wind> How many people just accept their fate?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
* Chad`Winters glances at Wind.
<Junior> Fewer than the number of people who accept other's fates, I suppose.
<DeathStar> <Wind> That would be why she would not find me a fascinating specimen.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances around.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares at Myria suspiciously, like she thinks she's a Tsivrixsh in disguise
<Michiru> "She's alright..."
<Junior> Hm.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> While I don't get a word about what you're saying, we should be thinking about how to find her, before he starts decomposing
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...what?
<Setsuna`> "She'd be hard to find directly... I don't know where she learned her techniques, but she's good."
* Seraphna is also giving Myria a wary eye.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I'm trying to..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina starts walking ahead again.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> WHAAAAAAT?
<DeathStar> 6* Myria's voice echoes out
* Xanatos resumes his movements.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Well, that would be bad.
* Seraphna signs, "You're friends with the enemy?"
* Junior thinks quietly. "So that's how it is, then."
<Michiru> "She's a good pers...on..."
<Michiru> "But now 'Billy' knows where we are."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly a tendril lashes out for Myria's head. Wind sticks out his hand, wincing.
<DeathStar> 6* The tendril stabs Wind's hand.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *spins and fires on the tendril*
<DeathStar> 6* Ten more tendrils launch at at everyone
* Seraphna gets into a defensive stance, summoning guns, she starts firing at the ones that get close to her or Aya.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *ducks*
* Chad`Winters drops to the ground, dropping below it
<DeathStar> 6* Aya ducks to the ground, and Zephyr fires at a tendril about to nail her. Katrina leaps bac.
* Michiru moves out of the way of the tendril, looking for the owner
* Junior sidesteps one, axe kicking it back into the ground.
* Xanatos pulls out his pistols and begins firing at the tendrils, jumping back from one about to hit him.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind reforms his hand.
* Setsuna` dives to the side, banking on the fact they can't actually see.
<DeathStar> 6* Setsuna is stabbed
<DeathStar> 6* They can see fine.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Everyone, get ready to fight.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind forms a sword and tosses it toward Junior as 10 tendrils launch at him alone.
* Cassandra` readies her guns.
<Chad`Winters> Great...6He pulls his pistol out, clicking the safety off.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Ummm...sorry... *forms her light blade*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pulls out a gun, trying to fire around her.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I'll do my best."
* Junior catches the sword, spinning and slicing at the tendrils.
* Michiru pulls out her sword, igniting it
<DeathStar> 6* Wind forms a hyperspace blade, slashing away at tendrils.
* Xanatos doesn't exactly look where he is shooting, he just moves about shooting at tendrils. He nails one that comes dangerously close to Katrina.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slides over to Setsuna, inspects her arm wound, then fires around.
* Junior eyes the sword, narrowing his eyes.
* Seraphna stares down the region her tendrils came from, guns charging, she takes a shot down the line as one comes, firing her other gun to deflect it.
* Chad`Winters turns, firing a shot at a tendril.
* Michiru cuts into tendrils, while Kyouki looks for the owner, firing with more care than skill
<Setsuna`> "...fuck. When the hell did those things grow eyes?"
<Junior> I guess this is your way of comparing us.
<DeathStar> <Wind> No. It's just the only sword strong enough I can make.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind slahses another tendril.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at Setsuna. "The dark is their eyes."
<DeathStar> 6* The tendrils retreat for now
<Setsuna`> "...they never could see me before."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "I think I have a plan."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Maybe they got better.
<Cassandra`> Let's hear it...
* Seraphna darts her eyes about, still defensively over Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya holds a small sword and a gun.
* Junior slashes the air, producing an irridescant swipe in the air as he weilds Garland Hianule's weapon: The Gospel Sword.
* Xanatos instantly stops firing and holsters the pistols, returning to his stiff stance.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "If they fight using the darkness, we'll just have to take that away, somehow."
<DeathStar> <Wind> A fascinating plan. Do you have a spotlight?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... no."
<DeathStar> <Wind> Then we try another plan.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Do you have one?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Junior, why don't you piss off the natives.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Ummmm...? *increases the brightness of her light blade*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sweeps the area with her gun.
* Chad`Winters coughs, his arm moving to cover his mouth.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at Chad. "You should be at the base@!"
* Junior spins the sword, running into the thick of the tendrils, slashing violently with the holy blade as black goo flies out of the wounds he inflicts.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind provides back up with energy bolts.
<DeathStar> <Wind> You kick around the underlings, Kyouki, the boss always comes out.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shrugs and fires into the dark.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Zephyr. 1"But I'm already here."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Don't give me that crap.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances at Sera, then fires.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Is this bright enough?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Might be.. we'll take what we can get."
* Seraphna waits, firing at tendrils as they come, her eys stop moving about adn she starts firing rapidly at calculated targets.
* Junior spins the sword quickly in his hand, cleaning the blade with the centrifugal force as he impales two of them on the seven-foot blade.
<DeathStar> 6* A sword suddenly spins down at Junior from behind, aiming to cleave int ohis hsoulder.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Junior!
* Junior spins, carrying the tendrils (or tearing through them, either or) with the blade as he parries.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman presses down on Junior's blade.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina turns toward the woman.
* Chad`Winters raises his pistol and fires a shot towards the woman sh she presses down
* Setsuna` throws a throwing blade at the woman
* Junior looks up at the woman, painted partially black with the dark blood. He glares up into her eyes as he pushes back with the sword.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman vanishes so the attacks move for Junior, hopefully.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind hrms as he glances around.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *scans for the woman as best she can*
* Junior flicks his wrist, knocking the thrown throwing blade that was thrown at him to the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya steps in small circles.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances around.
* Chad`Winters turns around, looking.
* Seraphna keeps at the ready, like a cat ready to pounce.
<Junior> That's one way to run her off and negate any plans, all who attacked.
* Setsuna` closes her eyes and focuses... she knows these techniques. Looking around desperately would just distract her from finding the woman.
* Cassandra` scans the surroundings...
<DeathStar> 6* The woman bounds in and out between the group, invisble to their eyes and scans.
<DeathStar> 6* She stabs at Aya's chest.
* Michiru lunges at the woman
* Seraphna thrusts her gun int eh way, letting ti get stabbed through, pushing the blade away
<DeathStar> 6* Sera succeeds. However, a dagger ends up in her heart. The woman smiles.
<DeathStar> <Woman> You left yourself open, Omega.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind turns finally.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stumbles back.
* Chad`Winters turns at the sound of the voice, his gun searching for her.
* Seraphna stares, she fires angrily, falling back to catch Aya.
* Junior looks over his shoulder to the woman, watching Sera get stabbed. He mutters to himself, pointing his sword at the woman.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya catches herself without falling, then eyes Sera. "Oh God."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Seraphna! Dammit! 6She fires a rifle blast at the woman, who leap sup.
* Seraphna stumbles back, cluthcin her chest.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman lands neatly beside Katrina and XAnatos, swinging at boht.
* Cassandra` fires a shot between Kan and Xan
<DeathStar> <Wind> She's good.
* Junior dashes in, thrusting the tip of the obscenely long sword at the woman as she attacks Kat.
* Seraphna concentrates, falling abck, gun held out as she slowly recovers, holding pressure to the wound.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina flips backwards
* Setsuna` throws a hollow ball at the girl as she moves forward
<DeathStar> 6* The woman turns as Junior moves in the path of Setsuna's ball
* Chad`Winters growls and begins moving towards Serena.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya eyes the woman, then snarls, rushing at her. <Zephyr> Aya! No! Too many people!
<Michiru> "Aya, stay back..."
* Chad`Winters stops beside Serena, he kneels down, moving her hand as he checks the wound.
* Junior accounts for that factor as best he can, batting the hollow ball at the dodging woman with his sword.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman moves behind Xan, just eyeing Junior with a smile. Suddenly, AYa rushes past Junior and tacles the woman.
<Seraphna> *It appears to be closing, but the area around her chest is bruised from blood leaking inside for a bit.
* Setsuna` pulls off on her approach... too crowded.
* Chad`Winters grunts and stands up, he eyes Aya then begins running towards her.
* Seraphna looks at Aya and moves to go after her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Damn! 6She tries to get an aim.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman shifts, getting a blade at Aya's neck.
<DeathStar> 6* She shoves Aya up as a shield.
<Michiru> "..."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind circles behind the woman, charging an energy blast.
* Chad`Winters slides to a stop, his hand snapping up and his gun aimed right at her.
<Cassandra`> I cna't get a clear shot!
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances at Junior, then eyes Aya and jerks his head to the side.
* Seraphna has a gun aimed, but not at the woman's head.
<Chad`Winters> Put her down. 6He growls at the woman
* Junior holds the sword with one hand, panting as he looks to the woman. He loses his concentration on the constant pain in his chest, curling forward suddenly as he coughs, spitting up blood.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Well, so much for that. 6He lifts his hand to vaporize them both, then hestitates, and lowers it
<DeathStar> <Wind> DAmn.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman smiles at Chad.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Just shoot her! Do it!
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina seems to be looking for her own opening.
* Xanatos turns and slowly pulls out his pistols. He tilts his head and looks at Billy through cluouded eyes.
<Chad`Winters> I said put her down!
<DeathStar> <Woman> Of course.
<Chad`Winters> Alive.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman pauses, then smiles.
* Cassandra` circles around, trying to line up a shot...
<DeathStar> 6* The woman seems content with allowing people behind her.
* Junior hacks painfully, raising his hand to the woman as he looks up, teeth stained red as he bares them at her.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
* Chad`Winters 's hands tremble slightly as he narrows his eyes.
* Seraphna aims her gun, finger twitching on the trigger, ready.
<Junior> Let her go. *coughs roughly, spitting blood onto the ground, the dry ground absorbing the fluid nearly immediatley*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You can't win.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Just let her go. PLEASE
* Xanatos glances around the situation in front of him, he seems to want to attack.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman just merely stands there, completely at ease.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Why are you even fighting?"
<Chad`Winters> 6The ground suddenly erupts under the woman, aiming to seperate her from Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman is knocked in the air. Suddenly a flaming ball appears as John punches her mid-air.
* Seraphna fires at the woman's hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Sera misses completely
<DeathStar> 6* The woman hits the ground, rolling.
<DeathStar> 6* John lands beside Dias.
<DeathStar> <John> Now that is what you call a heroic save.
* Junior dashes at the woman, pulling the sword behind him as he slashes at her.
* Xanatos pull up his pistols and shoots toward the woman destined location.
* Seraphna gets up, she rushes over and grabs Aya, moving away from the woman.
* Michiru smiles
<DeathStar> 6* The woman parries.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Of course, that's what we're about.
<DeathStar> <John> I mean, on a scale of 1 to 10, that was 12.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr fires over Junior's shoulders.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman shifts, keeping unior in the path of attacks.
* Junior pushes hard against the woman's sword. Yelling.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I'd say it was a 13.
<DeathStar> <John> Hmmm. I agree.
<DeathStar> <Woman> *sniffs Junior's neck* You reek of death.
* Chad`Winters backs uptowards Aya as he keeps his gun trained on the woman.
* Junior takes the shots as he's pushed into them, pushing harder against the dark blade.
<DeathStar> <Aya> That bitch.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Think we should finish her off?
<Junior> I'm just that likeable. *narrows his eyes, panting*
* Cassandra` moves to flank her so that she cna't keep Junior between everyon'e path...
<DeathStar> 6* Wind aims his hand at Junior and the girl, forming a hyperspace ball.
<DeathStar> <John> In a moment.
<Michiru> "Careful, she's probably still full of tricks."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Rule #21. Always swoop in at the end to finish off the villian.
<Chad`Winters> You ok, Aya?
* Junior reaches out and grabs at her wrist with his free hand. "Here's a fun game."
<DeathStar> <Woman> .... ?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya gets to her feet, clearly angry at getting caught off guard. Zephyr sends her a chiding look.
<Junior> You can let the zombie's soul go, or I never let go--even if it means they kill us both.
<DeathStar> <Woman> Okay.
* Seraphna sticks to Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind launches the attack.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman grabs his hand right back, grinning
* Junior grins, baring the remnants of his sharp canines, pushing hard agaisnt her sword and holding his grip tightly.
<DeathStar> <Wind> MOVE JUNIOR!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Now?
<DeathStar> 6* The woman pushes back, grinning right back.
<DeathStar> <John> FUck no. That's hyperspace.
* Junior leans back at the very last moment, moving to flip her over him and into the blast.
* Junior however, does not let go.
<DeathStar> 6* The blast hits the woman, a dark flare going up. Junior's hand feels pain.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Mr. Junior!
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shields her eyes
* Michiru winces a little
* Junior yells in pain, fighting his every human instinct to hold on.
* Xanatos holds his pistols level toward the explosion, as if he expects the girl to remain alive.
* Chad`Winters kneels down as he holds his gun trained on the woman and Junior
<DeathStar> 6* The flare dies down, and it seems the dark rune shield protected her.. She kneels there.
<DeathStar> <Woman> Now. I'm angry.
* Seraphna coughs a bit and glares, she's angry too.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman blasts Junior away with dark energy
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *sarc* "I'm so sorry."
* Junior twists as she's kneeling, trying to pull her arm around her back and pull the sword to her kn---ow.
<DeathStar> 6* She begins to rip Junior's soul out.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> NOW!
<DeathStar> <Wind> ....
* Xanatos tilts his head and releases a charged shot for the girl as she is preoccupied.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: ?!
* Seraphna blasts the woman with water blades.
* Junior skids along the ground, bouncing as she tries to pull his soul out.
<DeathStar> 6* The girl lets the shot hit as she drains the soul.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *fires a shot at the girl, inexpertly*
<DeathStar> 6* The woman is hit again. And again.
* Seraphna directs the water to keep cutting and cutting.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over at John pleadingly
<DeathStar> 6* Wind appears in front of Junior and the girl, blocknig the soul transfer
<DeathStar> <John> Yes, now.
<DeathStar> 6* John gestures.
* Setsuna` moves forward and smacks the woman with a blast of wind
<DeathStar> 6* Wind grabs the soul attack and lsams it back into Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman is hit again, sliding along.
<Chad`Winters> Dias slams his heel into the ground, sending a spike spiralign upwards towards the womans back
<DeathStar> 6* And right into the spike. She glances down at her own blood, tilting her head as if fascinated.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina catches XAnatos as he's knocked off his feet.
* Michiru rushes around behind the woman to stab her
<DeathStar> 6* The woman is stabbed again by Michiru
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's always a shame to have to kill a pretty woman.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stumbles forward, then to his knees.
* Seraphna blasts the woman with water mercilessly again, water arcing around to avoid friends.
* Xanatos opens his eyes, they are no longer clouded, he looks at Katrina oddly, before glancing around slowly.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances back. "...." 6She stares as they keep stabbing the woman, her eyes widening
* Junior smokes a little, his coat and shirt blown to hell from the force of the dark energy. His hand badly burned as he lays on his back, stairing at the thick, dark clouds above him.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> ...are you alright, Mr. Wind...?
<Junior> Wind...
* Chad`Winters holsters his gun, taking several deep breathes
<DeathStar> 6* The woman coughs up blood. "It's so black."
<DeathStar> 6* She falls forward
* Xanatos focuses on the woman now, then glances at Katrina's reaction. "She's caused them alotta pain. They're seeking their revenge."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... death is."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ...
<Cassandra`> Enemy is down!
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hugs Aya, who hugs her back. "Don't ever do that again."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind gives Myria a thumbs up, coughing.
* Michiru heads back, checking on Aya. "Are you alright, Aya?"
* Chad`Winters glances back at the exchange between Zephyr and Aya, a soft look on his face.
* Seraphna falls to a knee and groans a bit, nodding in agrement at Zeph and Aya.
<Junior> If we keep this up... there won't be anything left of us to fight each other with, later... *he stops, coughing violently again*
<DeathStar> <Wind> I confess I feel very mortal.
<DeathStar> <Wind> It's nice.
* Xanatos smiles softly. "Thank you, Kat." He moves to pull himself up to his feet, but hisses, he still has an exposed neck wound.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Nice?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Victory, Dias! 6He slides into his victory pose.
* Seraphna ruffles Aya's hair a little and sighs.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I promise.
* Seraphna signs, "I heal, you don't, remember that"
<DeathStar> <John> Well, you guys are hopeless without us.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Thanks for the save."
<DeathStar> <Wind> One day, you'll understand.
* Junior watches the clouds move slowly over the land as he lays on his back, mostly unable/unwilling to move.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Anytime.
* Xanatos wraps his hand around his wound, and pulls himself up to his feet this time.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Ok...
<DeathStar> 6* The woman lays there, barely breathing, as she stares at her own blood
* Seraphna summons her gun, glaring at the woman, aiming her gun at her head.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> We should get back to the base.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman looks up at Sera, smiling a blood smile.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind chooses to ignore the vengeance party, glancing up at the dark clouds.
* Seraphna looks at her, as if asking if she wants a quick end.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr puts an arm around Aya, walking away
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> What is it?
<DeathStar> 6* She just smiles at Sera, like she sees something she likes
<DeathStar> 6* John punches Dias' arm. "So, we make an awesome team."
* Xanatos glances at Kat and then looks to Wind. "Hey." He says to get Wind's attention.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *watches Sera*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias rocks to the side. 1"Oh fuck yeah."
<DeathStar> <Wind> You can still speak?
* Seraphna looks at her, tilting her head curiously. That emotionless gaze looking back.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at Sera
<Xanatos> Barely. *he says, his voice is raspy from strain* Thank you. *he says, seeming sincere*
<Chad`Winters> We should destroy the Dark Rune, Wind.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman dies finally, and her body crumbles to dust. The dark rune remains.
* Seraphna eyes the dark rune.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stands up, picking up the dark rune.
* Setsuna` watches the pile of dust
<DeathStar> 6* He holds it up, eyeing it.
* Seraphna nods to Wind.
* Chad`Winters looks at Wind, studying him.
* Xanatos glances off to the side, holding his neck, going silent now to rest his voice.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> bye...bye...evil Billy...
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stares at it, like it's a rare gem, then his hand goes energy, blowing it up.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Good work, you two."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> There's nothing we can't accompish.
<DeathStar> <John> Indeed not.
<Cassandra`> And the Dark Rune gets blown up again.
* Seraphna turns and walks after the others, beelining for her sister and Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina smiles at Wind, knowing how hard that was for him.
* Chad`Winters moves after the others.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Fate moves in cycles.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *smiles to Wind too*
<DeathStar> 6* Wind grabs Junior's hand and forces him to his feet.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...You think with her dead, the zombies are gone? 6He looks at John, worried.
<Michiru> "Lets go home! We won!"
<DeathStar> <John> Of course. She was the Zombie Master.
* Michiru grins
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Shew....I hate zombies.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina begins to move back.
<DeathStar> <John> I know. I know.
<Michiru> "They're all gone now, so don't worry."
* Xanatos glances towards the others, then moves after Kat.
<DeathStar> 6* John walks along.
* Junior looks back to Wind, shakily on his feet.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind just nods, then puts his shades back on and walks along.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias walks beside John, his hands resting behind his head. 1"Think they'll throw a victory party for us?"
* Junior looks at his burned hand and ruined clothes. "So much for style."
<DeathStar> <John> Doubt it.
* Setsuna` is the last to leave, just watching the dust for quite a while
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah, they never throw us a victory party.
<DeathStar> <John> I know.
* Junior sighs, looking back to the sky for a moment, as if searching for something.
* Seraphna looks down at herself and blinks as she catches up to Aya and Zephyr, pulling her shirt closed.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I knew we should've asked for them in our contract.
<DeathStar> 6* John just smirks, then grabs Michiru, lifting her up as he walks along, not caring she's 14.
* Chad`Winters glances ahead at Zephyr, Aya and Serena.
* Junior looks town, then back to Michiru and John.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances back at Chad, as if sensing him.
<Cassandra`> Sooo....Setsuna...how about a hot shower...?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *heads back quietly, thinking*
* Chad`Winters meet's Zephyr's eyes, staring into them.
<DeathStar> 6* John, remembering they're lesbians after 15 years, slides over. "Can we watch?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias' ear's perk up and he looks over at them.
<Cassandra`> ...no...
<DeathStar> <John> But, it's me. John.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *just laughs*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And you can't forget about me, Dias.
<Cassandra`> no.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Is this the no where no means yes?
<DeathStar> <John> But your dead self told me you wished you had a chance to let me see you have sex with Setsuna
<DeathStar> 6* They arrive back at the base
<Cassandra`> Wait...what?
<DeathStar> <John> It's true.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It is.
* Xanatos looks around for a medic to heal him.
* Junior shakes his head, putting his hands into his pockets again.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind idlely wonders if John and Dias are the only constant factors in any universe
<Setsuna`> "...how could her dead self tell you anything?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It was before she died.
<DeathStar> <John> In her will.
<DeathStar> <John> Which we saw ... before she died
<Cassandra`> ...I'm dead?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina leads Xanatos to the medical bay
<DeathStar> <John> Quite.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sadly.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya goes off to get some rest, and Zephyr moves for her own personal room.
* Chad`Winters moves inside, sitting down on a bench in the main room.
<Cassandra`> ...son of a...
* Setsuna` leans against Cass, "...I'm glad this isn't our universe."
<DeathStar> <John> Me too. So, about that shower.
<Cassandra`> ...no kidding...
* Xanatos smiles at Kat again, his face is still pretty pale from the whole dead thing.
* Seraphna sees Aya to her room then sighs and slumps quietly against a wall.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head at him.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It is in the will and all.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *purses her lips*
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Can I see that will?"
<DeathStar> <John> Destroyed. A decade ago.
* Xanatos arches a brow. "It's a shame I wasn't more entertaining." He notes in a hoarse voice.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You don't find death entertaining enough? 6She notes harshly.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind just sits outside.
* Xanatos eyes her oddly. "I was referring to keeping her stalled."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Right.
* Chad`Winters leans against the wall, his eyes' closing.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Horrible accident, really.
<DeathStar> <John> Terrible.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Oh, I'm sure."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So back to honoring the will.
<DeathStar> 6* John looks hopeful.
* Junior looks over to the dust from Billy, finally. Having not moved since then. He sighs. "I wish you had a different life." he turns, walking back towards the base.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> Ummm...John...?
<Xanatos> ....Sorry you had to see that. *he takes a seat in the medbay and waits for the doctor*
* Seraphna walks over to the overly loud John and Dias and looks between them.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, fine. I'll go see if Aya needs some sex ed.
<DeathStar> 6* John walks off.
* Seraphna puts a hand on his shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* John daftly avoids Sera.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves his hand to Serena's head, moving her out of his sight so he can get their response.
* Setsuna` leans over and kisses Cass on the lips, "I don't think it counts if you're still alive. What about you?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias' jaw drops.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina, seeing XAnatos is going to be fine, turns to go
* Seraphna moves swiftly in front of him and pouts.
* Xanatos watches her leave, he frowns and glances to the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps around er.
* Chad`Winters growls and places his hand on her head again and deftly, moves her aside so he can see them.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Dias
<Cassandra`> Doesn't count for me...
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *crosses her arms in a huff*
* Seraphna blinks and sighs silently.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind watches Junior approach.
* Junior stumbles, lying back on a dusty hill covered with dead grass just outside the base. Catching his breath as best he can through shallow breaths.
* Junior didn't seem to notice Wind.
* Seraphna wonders what she did this time and shrugs, walking over to the console Aya was working on.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Look girls, since the great mute clown here was blocking my view, could you redo that kiss I missed?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits beside Chad.
<Cassandra`> Pervert...
<Chad`Winters> Kat.
<Seraphna> * Something hits Dias in the head.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Care to talk?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hardly. If I recall, and I do. Because I still have i-6Head moves from the hit. He turns, looking around.
* Setsuna` just smirks, ammused by all this
* Xanatos steps out of the medbay shortly later with a patch on his neck, he moves through the hall and into the main room, moving lightly past everyone as he heads outside.
* Seraphna just looks busy looking at a monitor.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Don't step on him. 6He tells Xan.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> What in the...As I was saying. I still have the picture of you naked from your spread.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Why am I not surprised?"
<Chad`Winters> Depends on which topic it's about.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think you know.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> There are some things that are worth holding onto.
* Xanatos glances towards Junior. "He doesn't look so hot." He notes.
* Setsuna` looks at Cass, "It does take all of the imagination out of it, when everyone else has seen you naked too."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And I'm sure that Setsuna would agree.
* Seraphna eventually takes a seat against a wall and puts her head down on her knees.
<DeathStar> <Wind> He's dying. It isn't a pretty thing.
<Cassandra`> ..I'm never living that down...
<Chad`Winters> What's their to talk about? Knowing the details won't change the outcome.
<Xanatos> I'd say not. *he takes a seat on a piece of rubble* What made you do it?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Maybe not, but the details affect those around you.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Do what?
<Xanatos> Help bring me back to life.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Katrina would be upset if you were dead.
* Setsuna` smiles a fake happy smile, "Oh... well, they've only looked before. They don't really understand."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *glances to Xan* "You're worth saving."
<Xanatos> I see. *he rubs his chin and then glances at Kyouki* You think? I dunno, i'm a pretty tainted soul.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind idlely wonders who XAn is talking to
<Chad`Winters> What will happen to me isn't important right now, Katrina. There's other things more important.
<Cassandra`> Exactly...shower?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "And I'm not?"
* Seraphna gets up and walks to another area, a little more open where an improvised punching bag has been set up.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Pardon me, but that's bullshit.
* Setsuna` considers, "...don't suppose they have a hottub in this wreck?"
* Xanatos just shrugs, his eyes fall to the ground and he goes quiet.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind lets Xan talk his imaginary talk
<DeathStar> 6* He WAS a zombie, after all.
<Cassandra`> Even better....John does spend tim ehere, afterall...
* Seraphna looks around, seeing she's alone she pulls off the cloak, setting it aside, revealing a slightly more mature Serena. She looks down at her shirt and sighs, piulling off wraps around her hands, eyeing the punching bag.
<Xanatos> So just what can you do with your powers? *he glances up to wind* Could you poof me a sandwich or something?
<Chad`Winters> Probably, but why should I burden everyone else with it?
<DeathStar> <Wind> No
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I have a hot tub in this wreck.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Of course, keeping it to yourself is so much better. Denying them a chance to react is so heroic. You know what ? Do whatever you like, Chad. 6She gets up and walks off.
* Seraphna starts to beat on the punching bag mercilessly.
<Xanatos> Oh, being dead really made me hungry.
<Setsuna`> "...you trust him?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Junior was right. I should have left you dead.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Katrina, he slumps back against the wall, his hand rubbing through his hair.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind lifts his hand threateningly.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Oh, you get used to him, over time."
* Xanatos smiles. "Aw don't be like that."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... even if he is an idiot."
* Seraphna stops, wrapping her hands up before going to check on Aya, pulling her cloak back on.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind just stands up. He turns and walks off.
* Junior wipes his mouth clean on what's left of his sleeve, sighing as he closes his eyes.
* Chad`Winters looks down at his hands, then pushes himself up. He moves towards the hallway Zephyr disappeared down.
<Xanatos> Wow. Apparently I stink because people just wont stick around me.
<Cassandra`> I trust him to put i a hot tub.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ahh thank you for trusting me.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya's door is suspiciously shut.
<Setsuna`> "With or without spying?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can't make any promises on that part.
<Cassandra`> We'll have that problem no matter what.
* Seraphna carefully opens it.
* Xanatos leans back against the outside wall of the base, glancing up to the side.
<DeathStar> 6* John sits on Aya's desk, and Aya on her bed. Apparanly they're both talking.
* Michiru follows Sera, smiling a bit
* Chad`Winters stops outside Zephyr's room, he reaches out and knocks on it
<DeathStar> <Zephyr's Voice> Enter.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *finds a place to flop.
* Chad`Winters opens the door, stepping inside.
* Seraphna steps into Aya's room.
* Junior sits up, coughing roughly.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances at Sera interrupting, then glacnes back down. John glances at Sera.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's true.
<Xanatos> You should go get some cough syrup. *he tells Junior*
* Seraphna looks between them, then at Aya curiously.
* Junior look over his shoulder at Xan, who says this from roughly 30 feet away.
* Xanatos smiles and gives a thumbs up.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits at her desk, wearing a blank top shirt and jeans. She glances back, seeing Chad. "Oh. Chad. What do you need?"
* Junior returns a gesture, but it's not a thumbs up.
<DeathStar> <John> Well, just consider what I said, Aya. 6* He steps out, giving Sera a smile.
<Chad`Winters> I'm dieing...6He leands against the doorway.
* Seraphna smiles a litle nervously at him, almost out of her susual character.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I know. I saw your test results. 6She turns to face him.
* Chad`Winters shrugs. 1"Never looked at them."
<Setsuna`> "Ah well... privacy challenged hot tub it is."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Typical. I remember you being stubborn
* Xanatos drops his mouth open. "Well you're a rude motherfucker. Enjoy your dying." He yells, standing up and moving inside.
* Seraphna moves over to sit by Aya, sighing, she looks at her, the question clear.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Excellent! 6He motions them to follow
* Michiru smiles to John. "How did it go?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pretends to be busy with a datapad.
<DeathStar> <John> I don't think she's interested in talking to Chad.
* Junior 's eye twitches. "I don't see what Kat sees in him." he returns to coughing painfully, holding his side.
* Seraphna nods slightly and ruffles her hair again.
<DeathStar> <John> Speaking of fathers, have you talked to Junior?
<DeathStar> 6* John glances at Michiru
* Xanatos glances around the main room to see who is still there.
<Michiru> "... not really..."
<DeathStar> <John> You should.
<Cassandra`> Cool...let's go.
* Chad`Winters just shrugs. 1"Does it really matter what they say when I already know the outcome?"
<DeathStar> <John> You'll find life rarely gives you chances to talk to your relatives.
* Michiru nods. "I guess so."
* Michiru pauses, nodding grimly, and heads off to find him
* Chad`Winters leads them down a hallway. He passes by John, making a motion with his hand towards him.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Dias
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're dying, and yet you're pushing your body in fights instead of trying to fight it. Yes, I thin kit matters. Do you know what Aya went through when you died before? What it was like not having a father?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sounds angry.
* Seraphna signs, "You don't have to do anything you don't want to."
<DeathStar> 6* John doesn't react, seemingly having a lot on his mind.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'm not talking to him. See? Me. Not talking.
* Chad`Winters slides down the door frame. He reaches over and shuts the door as he sits there. 1"No I don't, but I can imagine...I did it for her Zephyr...I did it for everyone.
* Michiru heads over to Junior. "Ummm..."
* Seraphna just grabs her gently and huge the girl.
<Seraphna> *hugs
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It really doesn't mean much when you're dead, Chad. 6She stands up, crossing her arms. "I never told her about Eve, because frankly, losing one parent seem too devastating to be that cruel.
* Setsuna` puts an arm around Cass as they walk, starting to scheme. "If they're going to peek anyways, should we make some demands?"
* Junior sits up, looking to Michi.
* Xanatos just plops down in a seat, glancing around at those around him.
<Michiru> "I never got to talk with you while you were alive..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias whistles as he leads them
<DeathStar> 6* John sits down in the main room, turning on a computer terminal.
<Cassandra`> ...what have you in mind...?
<Junior> I'm sure if I could have, I would have been there more.
<Setsuna`> "Menial labour?"
<Chad`Winters> So, what? Sit by while others die so I can have...what? 5...6...9 more months?
<Junior> Rather... at all. I know what it's like to grow up without a father, mine was always... well, he always had 'better' things to do.
* Michiru nods. "I had John, so I wasn't lonely."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't know. I just know what it's like not having you around. You died before thinking the same thing. I watched you torn apart before me.
<Junior> I'm glad for that.
<Chad`Winters> Dias stops infront of his room and steps inside.
<Michiru> "I always wondered what happened, but I guess I know now."
* Michiru hugs Junior
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves over to his hot tub, preparing it
* Seraphna looks down at Aya, a protective and concerned aunt.
* Junior blinks, wide eyed. He stays stunned for a moment, then wraps his arms around Michiru, hugging her tight. "I'll do what I can for you, from here on..."
* Xanatos taps his hand on the seat beside him, then stands, glancing around, then moves off down a hallway, looking for someone to annoy.
<Chad`Winters> Tell me Zephyr...Would you want to know what's happening to me?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I would, yes.
<Michiru> "... it's okay, I know what's going on... I'm just glad I got to meet you."
<Xanatos> Yeah, stupid. *he tells Chad as he walks by*
<Junior> Me too.
* Michiru smiles
<Chad`Winters> 6A lackey stares at Xan talk at a wall, since Chad is behind a door.
* Junior smiles back, "We'll just have to make the best of the time we have."
* Xanatos glances at the lackey. "I have brain damage." He smiles big and moves on.
<Chad`Winters> I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you Zephyr...
<Michiru> "Yeah.."
<Cassandra`> Humiliation?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Hot tub's ready. 6He waves at the girls as he walks out, shutting the door behind him.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr runs her hand through her dark hair. "It's hard, Chad. I watched you died. I cared about you so much, and I watched you torn limb from limb. And here you are, 15 years later, and you're dying."
* Seraphna stays with Aya for now.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Junior's head is hit hard.
* Junior 's head is knocked around with a sickening thud, disorienting him if not knocking him out.
<DeathStar> 6* Emperor Xevil stands there, eyeing Michiru. He grabs her, lifting her up. "Hello, little one."
<Cassandra`> ...well...
* Xanatos steps back into the main room, glancing around, he steps up to John. "Are you typing...on a computer?"
<DeathStar> <John> I'm looking at what Zephyr's gathered on Xevil's base.
* Junior stumbles to his feet, shakily. "You..."
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor knocks Junior back down. "Sorry to interrupt this touching moment, Chiere. But I'm taking this one to her mother. We got a timeline to shatter."
<Michiru> "..."
* Chad`Winters closes his eyes. 1"I don't want to die Zephyr, for once in my life, I'm scared shitless. I can't keep my head straight, I can't think of anything past how my death is going to hurt people...
<Junior> You bastard!
<Xanatos> Oh. I thought you maybe turned into some techno savvy guy. You know, living and all that.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr's face softens, and she steps up, hugging Chad.
* Junior scrambles back to his feet again, grabbing the sword Wind made. He curses himself for not having the Emerald Sword.
<DeathStar> <The Emperor> Hahaha. 6* He carries Michiru off, stepping into a rift in space, and it seals up.
* Michiru glares at Xevil, launching a telekinetic strike at his face. "Just die already!"
<DeathStar> 6* Too bad Michi's gone.
<Junior> You bastard!!! Damn you!!!
<DeathStar> <John> You're as bright as ever.
* Chad`Winters sits there, leaning into Zephyr. 1"I don't know what to do, I want to tell Zephyr, but I don't want to cause her anymore pain. I've done it enough already.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind comes running up. "What happened?"
* Junior holds the sword ready, shaking in his hands as hs falls to his knees.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> And when you die, she won't be prepared for it, will she?
<Chad`Winters> Dias slowly rises up from behind the monitor. 1"So...."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances at Junior, then looks around.
<Junior> Xevil took her.
<Chad`Winters> She know's something's wrong. Cheryl already knows...
<DeathStar> <Wind> What? Why?
<Xanatos> Glad you think so. *he makes a fake smile, then glances at Dias* You put a peep hole in that hottub you were making, didn't you?
<Junior> Michiru. Xevil game and took her--he said something about taking her to her mother.
<Xanatos> NRP: The room*
<DeathStar> <John> So?
<Setsuna`> "Make him pay after?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Erevis. Xevil has Erevis.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No. 6He looks at John. 1"What's the next plan, my friend?
<DeathStar> <John> I'm trying to find a way to get Erevis back.
* Junior curls his hand into a fist, catching dirt between his fingers.
<DeathStar> <Wind> But this doesn't make sense . He doesn't need either at this point.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> We could always just go with plan z.
* Xanatos seems shocked, then glances back down to John. "She in a prison or something?"
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Tell her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> And Chad ? Try to find a way to live. Even if it's just a day.
* Xanatos rounds the corner to observe the screen and the layout.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind goes to heal Junior's outer wounds, but nothing happens.
* Junior closes his eyes, sparing the others a monologue about how he has to save her, much less the "family" which was forced on him shortly after he came to this world.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind pauses, glancing at his hand.
* Seraphna just holds Aya.
* Chad`Winters looks over at her with sad eyes, he just nods.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *heads over* "Something wrong?"
<Xanatos> Do you have the locations that the guards typically patrol?
<DeathStar> <John> We got nothing.
* Junior drops the Gospel Sword, looking down at it. "I can't use this sword."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind eyes the sword. "Why?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> We could use Xanatos as a dummy. I mean he already fits the definition.
<Junior> Think about it.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind nods. "This is delay tactic, Junior. So he can get enough time to power up. We have to go straight Xevil now."
<Xanatos> Glad to see you're wit is still as sharp as ever. *he rubs his chin and frowns* Do you even know where this place is located?
<DeathStar> 6* Wind grabs the sword.
<DeathStar> <John> That much I know.
<Xanatos> So we go bust her out. The John I knew would already be on his way.
<DeathStar> <John> Last time me and Erevis fought the Emperor, I nearly died, and he took her. It's how he sent Michiru back.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I heard about that all the way from the Urillium Galaxy.
<DeathStar> <John> Bah.
* Junior looks back over his shoulder to Wind.
<Xanatos> That the same guy that showed up in our time? The real big Xevil?
<DeathStar> 6* Zerphyr kisses Chad's forehead.
<DeathStar> <John> That's Xevil.
<Junior> I guess saying we don't have much time would be stating the obvious.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances at Junior to see his decision.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ugly little bastard.
* Chad`Winters closes his eyes then opens them, looking up at Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Wind> We don't. My power's fading. I imagine Xevil's is overpowering it.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Do we have a plan, or do we just bust in and beat on him?"
<Junior> What are our options, then?
* Xanatos glances up. "Well i'm sure he has a weakness. Everyone has a weakness."
<DeathStar> <Wind> We sacrifice Michiru and Erevis and attack him now. Or we go after those two, and hope we have the time.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I opt we hope Xanatos' mental retardation is contagious to Tsiv.
* Junior takes a deep breath, fighting off a cough as he thinks.
<DeathStar> <John> You think we could use it as a virus?
* Xanatos sighs. "Yeah, let them remain dead for a few minutes before you revive them."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Chad, then takes a breath.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's be the most potent virus since the Nirluan Virus.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stands there, entirely calm.
* Chad`Winters suddenly leans forward, kissing Zephyr.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Splitting up would be suicide, I guess."
<Junior> I can't afford selfishness. We attack.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr blinks, then closes her eyes and kisses him back, wrapping her arms around him
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... you're just going to let them die?"
<DeathStar> 6* Winds nods, glancing away. "Then we attack."
* Chad`Winters pulls back. 1"I'm...I'm sorry."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans back. "Don't be."
<DeathStar> <John> I guess we should get the entire team together.
* Junior closes his eyes at Kyouki's words.
* Chad`Winters leans back forward, kissing her again
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Any idea how?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'll get the team ready for an assault.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "It's not like we can just jump back in time and grab them."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind walks away.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr kisses him again, stepping him closer to the bed
* Xanatos rubs his chin. "Yeah, i'll go gather them up." He moves off into the side hallway.
* Chad`Winters follows her, his hand moving to her face as he kisses her deeply
<Junior> Xevil... *bares his teeth as he spits the name*
* Xanatos steps by and pounds on Zephyr's door. "Team meeting." He bellows out as he moves on.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr ignores Xanatos.
* Xanatos rounds a corner and peeks into the room that Katrina is in. "Hey Kat."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances up.
* Seraphna looks down at Aya, wondering if she's still concious.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is working on her datapad.
* Chad`Winters moves her onto her bed. He pulls back, quickly pulling his shirt off. 1"You're sure you ok with this?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods.
* Seraphna sets a chin on her shoulder and looks at her work.
<Xanatos> John is wanting to gather everyone up, make battle plans or something.
<DeathStar> 6* KAtrina stands up and moves for the main room.
* Junior wipes his eyes, drying them off as he stands still.
* Xanatos goes on, then opens the door to the hottub. "Hey you two. Get some clothes on and come to the main room." He says, seeing everything they're doing.
* Chad`Winters moves back in, kissing her on her neck.
<Cassandra`> ...let's go Setsuna...so much for that...
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *goes into the main room*
* Seraphna points out a calculation to her, just being there for her.
* Xanatos tilts his head. "Wow. You're pretty limber Setsuna." He smirks and turns, stepping out and moving on.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> One more battle, John.
<Setsuna`> "Yeah yeah..."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind steps into the main room. His attitude is off.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pulls off her shirt and lays down on the bed.
<Cassandra`> ...what just happened...?
<DeathStar> <Wind> We have a situation. 6He announces.
* Chad`Winters slides his hand along her waist and down to her thighs as he moves back up, kissing her deeply
<DeathStar> 6* John glances at Wind.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks over.
* Xanatos steps by Aya's room and pounds on the door. "Team meeting." He tells them as he moves back into the main room.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind removes his shades, and force once he doesn't seem so egotistical.
* Seraphna looks at Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances up, and heads out, tossing her datapad on the bed.
* Seraphna follows after her.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Xevil is gathering the energy to remake reality. We cannot waste anymore time. We have to assault his fortress now.
<Cassandra`> ...again?
<DeathStar> <Wind> We never stopped him.
<DeathStar> 6* John winces, rubbing his face. Aya steps in.
<Xanatos> So I take it you have some awesome battle plan?
<DeathStar> <Wind> There is no battle plan that can work easily. Xevil has ultimate strength. He is immortal. He is God.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Great, John, you're form was off again.
* Xanatos stares. "Soo...we shoot him until he stays down?"
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... it's not that easy."
<DeathStar> <Wind> He'll never stay down. We have to completely take away his powers.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And how do you propse we do that?
<Setsuna`> "So... we're just going in blind?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> I don't . However, the alternative is to do nothing, and be his slaves.
<Xanatos> Stab him with a power sucking device? It's usually a power sucking device.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Where can we get one?"
* Xanatos shrugs. "Power sucking device store?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina studies Wind. "You're holding back something."
<DeathStar> <Wind> ...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> The cute red-head brings up a interesting point.
* Xanatos glances at Wind now. Not having noticed.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
<DeathStar> <Wind> Nothing of relevance to defeating Xevil.
<DeathStar> 6* John eyes him.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So what about Michiru and Erevis?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "How did he take the power in the first place?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> Erevis is irrelevant at this point.
<Xanatos> Irrelevant?
<Xanatos> She dead?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I think she'd...well...would she? 6He looks at John.
<DeathStar> <John> I doubt it.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Erevis can wait until after Xevil is beaten.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> But you said we can't beat Xevil.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Are you not the mighty Dias?
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *looks pained* "You're certain she'll be alright?"
<DeathStar> 6* Wind says nothing.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Now wait a minute. 6He steps forward from behind the monitor.
<Xanatos> So she wont be alright?
<DeathStar> <Wind> I do not know.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "..."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I also go by Dias the Great, Dias the Awesome, Dias the Sex God.
<Xanatos> Dias the moron. Can't forget that one.
<DeathStar> <John> Wait, here's Michiru?
<Cassandra`> Stay on task, Dias.
<DeathStar> (where)
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... with Erevis."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah, Dias the Mor...6He stops, looking at Xan. 1"Har har har.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh, okay--WHAT?!
<DeathStar> 6* JOhn stands up, his face going red as his hair.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Xevil managed to kidnap her..."
<DeathStar> <John> AND YOU DIDN'T THINK TO MENTION THAT BITCH?!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias turns to looks at John then takes a step back. 1"Uh oh."
<DeathStar> <John> YOU KNEW! 6He points at Wind, who just stares. John suddenly slugs Wind with his metal hand, causing the man to stumble
* Xanatos smirks and arches a brow, glancing at John now. "John man..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina blinks . "John1"
* Xanatos attempts to grab John and hold him back. "Hey man, come'on calm down."
<DeathStar> <John> You weren't going to tell us, because you were going to let them die. ADMIT IT! 6He strains against Xanatos.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I wouldn't do that. 6He eyes his nails.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stands up.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Can't we send someone to rescue them? A small team who can do it while Xevil's distracted?"
<DeathStar> <Wind> We do not have time to rescue them. They are a delaying tactic. And thus are irrelvant.
* Xanatos continues to hold on to John, but his jaw clenches. "I have half a mind to just let him beat your ass wind."
<DeathStar> <Wind> He is counting on you to rescue them. If you split the team, both will lose.
<DeathStar> <Wind> It is a trap.
<Xanatos> Then we save our friends first. Then take him out together.
<DeathStar> <Wind> It will be too late.
<DeathStar> <John> Balls to that. I'm going for my kid
<DeathStar> 6* John breaks free of Xanatos.
<Cassandra`> Well...if we defeat him here...what happens to thsi tiemline?
<DeathStar> <Wind> I do not know.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "... I'm going with John."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And I'm going with John. Rule #1.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'm with John.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... You can't leave people behind, Wind. 6* She steps up to John.
* Xanatos lowers his hands watching John for a moment. "Yeah, friends come first. Seems you forgot that Wind."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I don't have friends.
<Xanatos> Well I wonder why?
<DeathStar> 6* Wind puts on his shades. "Do as you wish."
<DeathStar> 6* Wind steps out.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Wind...
<DeathStar> 6* Wind steps back outside
<Xanatos> You know where it is, right John? Let's get prepared.
<DeathStar> <John> Right then, we're going to hit the prison and get the girls back. You all with me? 6John glances at everyone.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Of course.
<DeathStar> <John> Good.
* Xanatos just holds a thumbs up.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind passes Junior.
<DeathStar> <John> Hey, lesbian girls, you with us?
* Junior looks over to Wind as he walks by.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind stops. "They have chosen to save the girls."
* Xanatos glances at them. He smiles. "Of course they are."
* Cassandra` glances at Setsuna.
* Junior sighs, as if in relief.
<Junior> Good.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> "Then lets go. We don't have much time."
<Junior> Unfortunately, you know what this means.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind smiles. "They're heroes. I was wrong. This galaxy is worth saving."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Where's Zephyr?
* Xanatos glances around. "And Chad for that matter."
<Xanatos> Oh wait. *he pauses*
<DeathStar> <Wind> Go with them, Junior. Save Michiru. I'll delay Xevil by any means possible until you all arrive.
<Chad`Winters> Dias scratches his head, looking around
<Junior> You'll need more than that.
* Xanatos scratches the side of his head and glances around. "I think they're having a private talk."
<Setsuna`> "Finally. An insane plan with little chance of survival."
<Cassandra`> Ready to pull off something completely crazy, foolhardy, and stupidly heroic, darling?
<Junior> You won't be enough to delay him.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I know. I'll fail. But a few minutes, is a few minutes.
* Seraphna quietly sticks beside Aya.
<Junior> Wind.
<Chad`Winters> Dias suddenly shushs Xanatos. 1"The lesbians are talking.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind glances at Junior.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glnaces around, as if Xan's words have just jogged a thought
* Setsuna` smirks, "If it wasn't crazy, foolhardy, and stupid, it probally would never work."
<Junior> Michiru is John's daughter--I have no right to come in and take more a role than that.
<DeathStar> <Wind> I understand.
<Junior> It would be better if I went with you.
<DeathStar> 6* Wind nods. "Lets buy them time, then."
* Junior nods slowly.
* Xanatos taps his chin. "Perhaps we should take a few minutes to prepare for the upcoming battle?
<DeathStar> <John> Uh, good idea, Xanatos. GRAB ALL THE GRENADES AND BOMBS!
<Cassandra`> Already...lets make some miracles.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Gah Grenade and bombs! 6He covers himself in fear
<DeathStar> <John> Oh yeah. 6John grins.
* Xanatos eyes the two. "Uhhh...ok?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I have the sinking feeling that making John our leader was a bad idea."
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *laughs*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You're not seriously going with Plan Z! You can't be!
<Xanatos> Aw man, I wanted to be the leader.
<DeathStar> 6* John just gives a wild grin.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Ahh....fuck. 6He stands up, his head hangin.
<DeathStar> <John> Alright, we leave in 10 mins. Get all you need done - DOEN!
* Xanatos glances at Kat. "Plan Z?" he thinks she might know, being related to John.
* Seraphna looks at John and Dias and grins a little.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I have no idea.
* Setsuna` looks to Cass, "That's not long enough, is it?"
<DeathStar> <John> ... I could make it 15.
<Chad`Winters> Dias goes to speak than studders as he looks over at Setsuna. 1"Please be long enough, please be long enough."
* Xanatos glances from John to Dias. "You two never change."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr cuddles against Chad in the bed, staring at the ceiling.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'm going to go find mom.
* Chad`Winters holds onto Zephyr tightly, his eyes closed.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *runs to gather supplies*
* Seraphna nods to Aya.
* Xanatos glances at Aya, then looks back to John and the others. Suddenly his eyes widen and he glances at Aya. "Wait, you think you could help me and Kyouki gather supplies?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> .. Why?
<Chad`Winters> Dias looks over at Xanatos. 1"What...The hell's wrong with him?
<Xanatos> ...Uhh...I just thought I should try to get to know you a little. Being as how you're Zephyr's kid and everything.
<Cassandra`> ...we'll have celebrations in private after then...
<DeathStar> <Aya> .....
* Setsuna` mock pouts, "Better be good."
* Seraphna catches on, she looks at Aya.
<Xanatos> ...*he pauses* Oh nevermind. *he waves her off*
* Seraphna signs, "I'll get her."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sighs. "Fine." 6She goes off to help
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh pishposh Xanatos. 6He moves over to Aya. 1"Go ahead and find Zephyr. I'll help the retard." 6He parts on the ass to get her to move.
* Seraphna walks off to Zephyr's room.
<DeathStar> <John> Hey, Dias, what's she signing?
<Chad`Winters> Dias looks over at John. 1"I think...She said foreplay is boring. But I don't know."
<DeathStar> <John> Mmmmmm. Good to know.
<DeathStar> 6* John nods and walks off.
* Xanatos moves off to help Kyouki and Aya gather supplies then. "So..." he glances at Aya. "Zephyr teach you how to fight?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> Duh.
* Seraphna gently knocks on Zephyr's door.
<Xanatos> I didn't know if Sera helped or something. *he shrugs*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I taught her hand to hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs at the door knock, then reaches out to hit a button. "Yes?"
* Chad`Winters slowly opens his eyes, glancing over at the door. He then looks over at Zephyr
* Seraphna snaps her fingers.
* Xanatos glances at Dias. "So Zephyr taught you how to shoot and such, and Dias taught you hand to hand. Did anyone teach you how to use a sword?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> *sniffs* Why you ask?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I also taught her how to properly kiss a man.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rolls out of bed and grabs her clothes, putting them on.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> But no one ever brings that one up..6He crosses his arms in disapointment.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Because you sucked.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh and how the hell would you know?
<Xanatos> Just curious. I just wonder how good you really are. *he eyes Dias, then smirks at Aya*
* Seraphna waits, arms crossed.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kyouki told me so.
* Xanatos widens his eyes. "You and Kyouki?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Only because I feared she'd take a dabble in my head and then think she was me. 6He shudders*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr opens the door so only she can be seen. "What is it?>"
<Xanatos> Yeah she once dabbled in my head and thought she was me. Made out with Sera and everything. Real odd.
* Seraphna signs, "Xevil has Michiru."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> 6Looks at Aya than at Xanatos. 1"So she made out with a girl...that's normal."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr's eyes widen. "What? When? How?"
* Seraphna thinks, then signs, "John's leaving in 10 minutes."
<Xanatos> Sera a lesbian in this timeline or somethin?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I understand. 6* She closes the door, glancing back at Chad. "Xevil took Michiru. A rescue party is on the way to get her and Erevis."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's Sera? 6He states it as if that in itself answers it.,
<Xanatos> She sure liked guys in my time. *he taps his chin, remembering* Maybe that's why she was attracted too me? Long hair.
* Chad`Winters leans out of bed, looking at Zephyr. 1"How much time till we leave?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ten minutes.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I just figured she liked old men with gray hair. 6He shrugs
<DeathStar> 6* Aya listens.
* Chad`Winters leans over, picking up his clothes and slowly dressing.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr watches him dress.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Zephyr. 1
<DeathStar> 6* 2
<Chad`Winters> Can I ask you something?
* Seraphna has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Of course.
<Xanatos> My hair isn't grey!
* Xanatos takes a lock of his hair to look at it.
* Seraphna has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Seraphna
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yes it is.
<Xanatos> You know Dias. In my time, you finally admitted you like men. It was a real shocker honestly.
<Chad`Winters> When did you...6He motions to her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Get older?
* Seraphna walks back out.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah....I know bullshit and that's a lot of it
* Chad`Winters nods.
<Michiru> <Kyouki> *heads back with supplies*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I found how to unlock my own aging process.
<Xanatos> Yeah, but it'd be pretty funny if it was true.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Not as funny as when you died.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya has long left the two alone.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Died from a stubbed toe.
* Seraphna looks at Dias and arches an eyebrow.
<Chad`Winters> Can I ask how?
<DeathStar> 6* John steps out of a room with Myria
<Xanatos> I do have a weird thing with toes.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Sure. There was a code program within me. I was going through some of Cran's old labs, and found the Dragoon sequences and found my own.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah.....6He just tosses two crates onto his shoulders and turns, moving away.
<DeathStar> <John> *coughs* So, we should do that again some timeline.
* Xanatos lifts up a crate and moves after him.
* Chad`Winters pulls his tact suit top on. 1"Genetic sequencing to turn it off?"
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *nod nod, skipping out*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yes, I know that as well.
<DeathStar> <John> If you need another lesson, don't hesitate to ask.
<DeathStar> 6* John adjusts his brown trench coat and strolls off, whistling.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Ew.
<Chad`Winters> Dias steps into the main room, tossing the two crates full of exposives and grenades off his shoulder and onto the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* People dive away.
* Xanatos stops, eyeing Dias. "Are you sure you're not brain damaged?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina winces at the crates.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why would you think that?
* Chad`Winters looks at her as if trying to decide wether to ask or not
<Xanatos> Because you do dumber things than me. And i'm brain damaged. *he sets his crate down*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans over to his ear, whispering something to him, then steps out first, meeting up with the others.
* Chad`Winters blinks, he clothes his eyes, remembering her words.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, I see John has another mission underway.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> "Ok!"
<DeathStar> <John> You're shirt is on backwards, zee
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs patiently at John
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Okay, if we're going to do this, we're going to do it rationally....
<DeathStar> To BE CONTINUED
Session Close: Thu Jun 14 23:11:35 2007
