<DeathStar> Stardate: -SEVERAL HOURS LATER-
<DeathStar> Location: HQ
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sleeps away in her chair in her office, snoring occasionally in an ungraceful manner
* Kulix has joined #TAW
<Kit> 6Chii re-enters the office, having snuck away a few minutes earlier. She tilts her head at Cheryl, grinning, then shakes her head and moves in, nudging her shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just makes a snore-snort and keeps on sleeping.
<Kit> 6Chii shrugs and reaches a hand out, wafting a cup of coffee about Cheryl's face, then nudges her again.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shifts in the chair, as if it were a bed, and puts her back to Chii.
<Kit> 6Chii twitches slightly, then tilts the cup, spilling a small amount of the hot coffee on Cheryl's hip.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jerks, swinging her fist out for the source of the pain, making a sound of like a pissed of tiger.
<Kit> 6Chii lifts the coffee cup so it's not punched. 1"Good morning, Cheryl."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Son of a bitch. Goddammit. 6* She curses instead of answering Chii, glancing down at her hip.
<Kit> <Chii> Imagine how hot it might have been if I hand't blown it off for a while." 6She blows across the top of the coffee now, recooling the top.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Chii, not amused.
<Kit> <Chii> I want you to see something.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Not in the mood. 6* She says in a dismissive, bitchy tone.
<Kit> <Chii> Obviously, but you're the one who would understand best.
<Kit> 6Chii rolls her eyes. 1"Aside from Chad, maybe. Or Erevis, but she doesn't talk much."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Then get them.
<Kit> <Chii> It'd interest you more than them.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl dabs at her hip, eyeing her uniform being ruined. "What is it?" 6* She looks around and grabs a paper and dabs her uniform with it
<Kit> <Chii> Cold water and non-alkaline soap.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Why the hell would I be interested in that?
<Kit> <Chii> For the stain.
<Kit> <Chii Hot water sets them and they don't come out. Alkaline would ruin the colour.
<Kit> 6Chii inclines her head slightly. 1"As for what I want to show you, that's for your eyes." 6She holds another cup of coffee, sipping it.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just makes a sound and throws the paper down, apparantly not in the mood to deal with it. "What is it?" 6* She repeats.
<Kit> <Chii> It's about Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's lip twitches.
<Kit> <Chii> I didn't do anything.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll pass. 6* She notes.
<Kit> <Chii> Suit yourself, then. I for one thought it was a strange decision and somewhat refreshing to see.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl doesn't take the bait and ask what.
<Kit> 6Chii grins to herself. 1"I guess it would be the first time since the dark planet."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Chii. "What are you babbling about?" 6* She asks, irritated.
<Kit> <Chii> Who knows? Just talking to myself since you're passing.
<Kit> 6Chii sips coffee.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts.
<Kit> 6In the medical bay, Lilith sits up, only opening her eyes after doing so. They shift, scanning the room.
<Kit> <Chii> I wonder if you'll still surpass her with that attitude, though.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Chii dangerously.
<Kit> <Chii> Ariel's made a move.
<Kit> 6Chii raises a finger. 1"Though not on her own."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm going to take a shower. 6* She stands, her voice thick with irritation.
<Kit> 6Lilith shifts to move her legs off the table, taking a deep breath and going to stand.
<Kit> <Chii> Mh. I'll be in the courtyard.
<Kit> <Chii> Well, not in it. I might get hurt.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Whatever.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps out.
<Kit> 6Chii exits the office, peering after Cheryl with an expression found wanting, then heads the opposite way for the yard.
<Kit> 6Lilith hops down to the floor-- and falls over without any grace whatsoever.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus just does paperwork, letting her fall.
<Kit> 6Lilith peers at the ceiling, then rolls over and attempts to stand, shaking a while, then giving up with a heave. Lethargy's a bitch.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> You keep that up, and you won't be ready for the upcoming battle.
<Kit> 6Lilith moves her eyes to peer at Caduceus. 1"...Battle..?"
<Kit> 6She seems to doubletake, and jerks. 1"We were attacked."
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> At least your brain works.
<Kit> <Lilith> The hangar was sabotaged by Drake. Alone I could not use the gear systems to allow Anubis to escape, only defend. I do not understand. Has Drake turned against us?
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Shapeshifter.
<Kit> <Lilith> ... ...
<Kit> 6Lilith's eyes fall. 1"Even as a dog my senses fail to be of use."
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus motions the nurses to pick Lilith up and put her back in the bed, and to give her another shot.
<Kit> 6Lilith eyes the nurses. 1"...What is this?"
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Medicine.
<Kit> <Lilith> ...I understood that much...
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl takes a shower in one of the spare rooms - gracious nudity and all that.
<Kit> <Lilith> Is Lady Raquel well?
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> She's fine.
<Kit> 6Lilith releases a gentle sigh.
<Kit> <Lilith> The voice. It was in my dreams. Was it...?
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Real. The whole galaxy is after the gift. Which is what the upcoming battle will be about.
<Kit> 6Chii spies on Megumi and Ariel.
<Kit> <Lilith> ..." 6She breaks her monotony to express a sad face.
<Kit> 6Katrina receives yet another message.
<DeathStar> 6* Yet again ignored.
<Kit> 6Dawn makes good on his threat and mails Darien instead.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lazily gets around to it. However, with things nearly at Zero Hour, his mind is clearly distracted
* Arralis` is now known as ARiel
* ARiel is now known as Ariel
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Ariel
<Kit> 6[The city is moving, searching for something. The voice, is it true? Proving it's impossible, obviously, but knowing you guys. Are you... acting upon it?]
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sends him a message telling him it's a fake and to avoid the area, lest the military injure him.
<Kit> 6[Guess you are.]
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks his tongue.
<Kit> 6[...If it's true, I could... My sister. But that would... We would become enemies, wouldn't we? I'm sure you're too dedicated to concede.]
<DeathStar> 6* Darien types. [Don't chase after false hopes. Stay home]
<Kit> 6Megumi does stuff with Ariel, lack of budget, while Chii spies. Cheryl showers. Lilith rests, chatting with Caduceus and... Dawn babbles at Darien.
<Kit> 6[False hopes? My memories are fleeting, nothing is more false than who I am today. Don't treat me like a kid, Darien. I'm not sure even you are aware what I'm capable of... But I don't want to be enemies.]
* Ariel is meditating with Megumi. It's low budget!
<Kit> 6Megumi shifts often, sucking at this even with practice with Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Darien> [Fine. We'll be enemies if you go near that place. That's all there is to it.]
<Kit> 6[Even if the wish is passed?]
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Mother Knight, we have been doing this for hours. Need we continue?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lets his statement hang without a response
<Kit> 6[Hrmph... My sister's probably a dark one anyway.]
<Ariel> "It's important to discipline your mind, Megumi. To be aware and open to things beyond your own self."
<Kit> 6Megumi plays with the end of a strand of hair. 1"That's what my ears are for."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien raises a brow at that line
<Ariel> "And for the things your eyes cannot percieve? Your ears cannot hear?"
<Kit> <Megumi> That's what my heart's for." 6Pouts. 1"And intuition."
* Ariel nods. "And that is why we do this. To become better aware of the world around us, and our place within it."
<Kit> <Megumi> This alone will allows us to better utilize...?
<DeathStar> <Darien> [Explain]
<Ariel> "It will help."
<Kit> 6Dawn [Katrina didn't tell anyone?]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [Tell what?]
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl finishes her shower. She dries off, and puts on a spare uniform
<Kit> 6Dawn [I don't remember a few years of my life from a while ago. But before that, there was an incident where I was born. Creatures and beings not human began showing up. My sister protected me.]
<Kit> 6Dawn [But I saw her a year later, and afterwards lost my memory.]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [I can assure you that is impossible.]
<Kit> 6Dawn [What's impossible?]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [Assuming you were on Earth, creatures and beings not human could not have appeared, because such things have only begun to appear in the last year. And Dark Ones only came to our galaxy within the past two years.]
<Kit> 6Dawn [I fail to see your point.]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [You mentioned before you wanted me to research an incident in your past. You mention creatures. I'm pretty sure you're not referring to the Ridiarium Wars. As there's no other such incidents on Earth, I'm saying such a thing cannot have occurred.]
<Kit> 6There's a pause. [I am certain there is no err in the memories I do have.]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [How often do I hear that one.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches the various news channels reporting on the chaos going on.
<Kit> 6Dawn [Then what would you suggest? I've always had the picture.]
<DeathStar> <Darien> [I'll get back to you on that one. After the current situation.]
<Kit> 6Dawn [If I'm delusional than this may be the one time to have my sister returned.]
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns up the volume on what's he watching, then types a response. [Stay out of this one. I mean that.
<Kit> 6Dawn [I can't promise that, but I won't get in your way if we meet.]
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks the datapad off and tosses it aside. Yet another person he'll have to shoot in the face, more than likely.
<Kit> 6Chii starts to drift off slightly, not finding much interest in watching this meditation stuff, but she's curious.
* Xanatos has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<Kit> -End0
* Kit wonders if anything will progress before death.
<Sera|WorkingCabbit> Nope.
* Sera|WorkingCabbit is now known as Seraphna

<DeathStar> -RESUMATION-
<Kit> 6Megumi opens one eye, peering at Ariel, then yawns and stands, stretching.
<Kit> 6She begins tiptoeing away.
* Ariel shakes her head a little, the girl is going to need to learn some discipline.
<Kit> 6Megumi turns slowly and acks.
<Kit> <Megumi> Y-You're awake!
<Ariel> "You thought otherwise?"
<Kit> <Megumi> You l-looked so peaceful I thought you'd fallen asl--
<Kit> 6Megumi pauses on the thought and covers her mouth.
<Kit> 6Chii collapses against the floor, the impact to her chin waking her up.
<Ariel> "...if you cannot tell if I'm asleep or awake, in this close proximity, we have much work ahead of us."
<Kit> <Megumi> I--
<Kit> 6Megumi squints. 1"I don't want to just sit here anymore."
<DeathStar> 6* -50 Bond Synch.
<Kit> 6Chii rubs her chin sighing, peering out at Megumi and Ariel. At least they seem to be alive, but it's still boring. She grumbles and retreats into the hall.
* Ariel stands up, "So... what do you want to do, Megumi?"
<Kit> <Megumi> U-um... well, isn't there anything else that can help?
<Ariel> "Yes, there is. But it's useless when you haven't even become aware of the basics."
<Kit> <Megumi> I read about the basics.
<Ariel> "You know about the basics prehaps, but you do not know the basics."
<Kit> 6Megumi puffs her cheeks and crosses her arms stubbornly.
<Kit> <Megumi> It's a bond, right?
<Ariel> "And, how would you describe 'a bond'?"
<Kit> <Megumi> An inseperable connection outside of physical being.
<Ariel> "I ment this bond."
<Kit> 6Megumi unfurls her arms. 1"So did I."
<Kit> <Megumi> I did not say a loan of money, a restriction to freedom, an agent of mending.
* Ariel sighs and rubs her head, wondering if the girl knew how not to be difficult.
<Kit> <Megumi> The only thing bonds share in common is that they can't be truly defined by anyone but those that made them. To put it to words is too simple.
* Ariel nods slowly, and looks to Megumi. "So... how would you like to approch this?" The girl had potential, but she made the most frustrating squire.
<DeathStar> 6* Nyuck nyuck
<Kit> <Megumi> I-- ...I don't know!
<Kit> 6Megumi throws her arms up in frustration. 1"But sitting just makes me anxious!"
<Ariel> "...can you sense anything, within the bond?"
<Kit> 6Megumi pauses, and lowers her arms, considering.
<Kit> <Megumi> Frustration.
* Ariel laughs a little, "...that much you should be able to read on my face."
<Kit> 6Megumi pouts slightly, seeming to ignore the comment for a moment. 1"Why...? Only I'm impatient. Why aren't you?"
<Ariel> "Because impatience will decrease our chances of achieving anything worth while in the next 24 hours."
* Jackieness has joined #taw
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
<Kit> 6Megumi stares, then looks down guiltily. 1"I'm sorry."
<Ariel> "It is not an easy task, despite what others might have you think. I was fortunate with Erevis. We had much in common before the bond was ever in place. That is an exception, not a rule."
<Kit> <Megumi> I didn't think it woul dbe ...easy...
<Kit> NRP: Would be =_=
<Kit> <Megumi> Mama Knight... ever since I heard about it, it's been something that's fascinated me. Now... because it may help to fulfill everyone's goals, I'm more elated than ever that it's even an option. The fact that you've given me a chance is further still. I won't let any inconvenience keep it from working. I have to, after all, change fate with that same will.
* Ariel rests a hand on Megumi's shoulder, "You need to have patience. Haste. Anxiety. Worry. If you focus on these things, it'll cloud your mind. You need to keep yourself open. That's the most important part."
* Kit peers up at Ariel and huffs. 1"Same things Erevis said, so it must be true."
<Kit> NRP: Megumi. >_>;
* Ariel smiles, "Erevis is right, more often than not. You should listen to her."
<Kit> 6Megumi puffs her cheeks. 1"I listen to beloved."

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.7.25 - Only a few hours remain until 'the gift of the gods' appears
<DeathStar> Location: HQ
* Xanatos is now known as Marcus`
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands in the conference room, which a meeting will be held in. He watches the HoloVid, which shows news of people being interviewed, begging and saying why they should be allowed to make their wish. One woman talks about her dead daughter, and how she could wish for her return.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits near him, having come early, since she's the XO. She doesn't bother to speak. Warren isn't the talkative type.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is in the messhall, getting a last minute meal before the briefing.
<Megumi> 6Chii spies on the two instead of Ariel and Megumi.
* Marcus` sits in the messhall, finishing up a meal before the meeting.
* Jennifer` sits in the mess hall, eating as well. Even if she's likely not going to the main event.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis meditates on the roof as usual, not bothering to eat.
<Megumi> 6Lilith lies in the infirmary, staring a the ceiling.
* Chad`Winters stands over the messhall table, his tact belt laid out, with several of the pouches open. Ebony and his other gun rest above the belt
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus finishes checking on Lilith. "You're cleared to go." 6* He waves her off.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits at the mess hall, eating some toast.
<Megumi> 6Lilith moves, leaping down to her feet, perhaps surprised by not falling over. 1"...Miracle."
<Marcus`> *Theron stands at a work table in his quarters, going over his equipment.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel hugs Lilith as she gets up, happy she's been cleared
<Megumi> 6Lilith awkwardly embraces Raquel.
<Jennifer`> "Jeez that belt has a lot of pockets..."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands in the training room, his goes through his routine but without any force.
* Jennifer` eyes Chad's belt curiously.
<DeathStar> 6* A shuttle lands outside the base, and Angela Bennet is disposited
* Myria sitting on Theron's bed, watching him.
<Jennifer`> * Seraphna sighs and heads inside, stretching a little.
<Megumi> 6A tear forming a ripple gradually forms in the meeting room next to the table.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos steps into the meeting room, apparently he is so bored that he arrived early.
* Chad`Winters glances at Jennifer. 1"That why I can hold all the puzzle solvers."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren ignores it.
<Jennifer`> "So you carry around a lot of gadgets and stuff like Chii?"
<Megumi> 6Freyja slowly steps through it, breathing a big sigh. She casually turns for the exit, humming.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Freyja.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos steps aside, watching Freyja.
<Megumi> 6Chii hits her head in the vent as a reaction.
<Jennifer`> * Sera steps into the meeting room and takes a seat, looking refreshed.
* Chad`Winters grunts. 1"It's not the same. I utilize my hand guns along with slim blades for back-up. What I keep in my belt is different than what she does.
<Megumi> 6Freyja peers at Angela oddly, then moves around her and heads for the mess hall.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Looks like we won't ge tot shoot her, now.
* Jennifer` leans over the table a bit to peer at it. "What sort of things to you pack?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias let's out a breath of air and lowers his hands.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts and taps a button. "The meeting will begin in 10 mins."
<Myria> Theron, we need to go. *hops off the bed*
* Ariel pauses in her spar against Megumi, "...we should go."
<Megumi> 6Chii drops out of the vents rubbing her head furiously. 1"...Grr..."
<Marcus`> *Theron steps back and glances up, he nods to Myria and turns to move towards the door.
<Chad`Winters> High and Low powered explosives, smoke, concussi- 6He glances up.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks up. Darien swallows his own food
<DeathStar> <Darien> Showtime.
<Jennifer`> "Hmmm..."
* Jennifer` eats up.
* Marcus` shoves the sandwich in his mouth as he hops up, tossing away the trash.
<Megumi> 6Megumi nods slowly, trying to hide the fact that she's still a short-term fighter and having trouble breathing, but hey, if any of their work was useful Ariel'd know that anyway.
* Chad`Winters slips the rest of the small orbs back into the pouches and he wraps it around his waist. He grabs Ebony and his other gun and holsters them.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya glances at Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gets up and moves for the meeting room.
<Megumi> <Lilith> Lady Raquel, I must attend this meeting.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks up then moves out of the training room.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps in herself, already wearing her tact suit. Her mask hanging from a waist loop.
* Marcus` moves out, after Darien. "I wonder what crazy plan Warren has in mind?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps into the meeting room and takes a seat. She looks withdrawn.
* Myria follows after Theron.
<Chad`Winters> You can sit in on the meeting Aya. 6He looks down at her.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos sits there, arms behind his head, eyes on the ceiling.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods slowly and stands, waiting to follow Chad.
* Megumi moves over and offers a hand to Ariel, smiling.
<DeathStar> <Warren> You might as well exit the vent, Chii.
<Megumi> 6Chii already did, back when she was rubbing her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chii, seeing she did already. He pauses
<Megumi> <Chii> ...
<Jennifer`> * Sera yawns a little and looks around.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ...
* Chad`Winters turns and head to the meeting room.
<Megumi> 6Chii scoffs at Warren, turning away and crossing her arms.
* Jennifer` gets up and heads after Chad and Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake enters the meeting room and sits down, looking unusually serious
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps in and sits down. He glances at the HoloVid playing.
* Ariel heads to the briefing room with Megumi. Raquel doesn't leave Lilith's side.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus follows the little Weapon girl
* Jennifer` is now known as Seraphna
<Marcus`> *Theron steps in with Myria, moving to take his seat.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis enters silently, taking a seat.
<Megumi> 6Lilith moves into the meeting room, stoic as ever and apparently better thanks to the doctor and girl following her.
* Marcus` enters and sits down, leaning forward to prop himself up on his knees.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias steps into the meeting room himself, wearing a black hoody and a bandana. He plops down, a distant look on his face
* Megumi only breaks from Ariel after spotting Erevis, moving over to the silent one and hugging her.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, tilting her head at the sign of affection in the meeting. She awkwardly pats Megumi
* Myria hops into her seat as well.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos just chuckles.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy walks in, dressed in a commando outfit
* Megumi takes a seat, peering back at Ariel. She doesn't look weary or tired since recovering from the short of breath. Perhaps all those catnaps were stored for times like this!
* Seraphna looks over at Meg and Ere and smiles a little.
* Marcus` pauses and does a double take. "Hey Bills."
* Myria steps into the meeting room after Billy, clad in her combat suit.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances over at Billy. 1"What's up hellraiser?
<Megumi> 6Chii locks onto Billy. 1"What are you doin--"
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> steps into the meeting room after Billy, clad in her combat suit.
<Megumi> 6Freyja waltzes in, humming. Chii locks on her.
<Megumi> <Chii> What are you doing here..!?
* Ariel sits by Darien
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pops four vicodins.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smiles at Ariel, reaching over and squeezing her hand.
* Chad`Winters steps in finally, his left hand rests down on Ebony as he takes a seat.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna follows Cass, looking liek she realizes she's a bad parent.
* Ariel gives Darien a small smile, but she seems nervous.
<Seraphna> "One big happy family we are."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya slides in quickly and awkwardly and sits beside Chad
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Don't get any sick ideas, Marcus. *takes a seat*
<DeathStar> 6* Billy holds a stick. She uses it to swat Chii.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer takes a seat closer to Warren.
<Marcus`> Yeah, kiss my ass, Cass. Oh ho, that rhymed.
<Megumi> 6Chii looks from Freyja to Billy. 1"Why you little bi--"
<DeathStar> 6* Swat.
<Megumi> 6Freyja cuts her off. 1"Thanks, Billy."
<DeathStar> <Billy> No prob.
<Megumi> 6Chii backs away, mumbling. 1"I hate you both."
<DeathStar> 6* Billy begins to pass out chocolate candy to everyone but Chii. "Treats for everyone before your final mission."
<Marcus`> *Theron just eyes it awkwardly.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake takes it, eyeing it awkwardly as well
* Seraphna smiles to Billy and takes the chocolate. "Why thank you."
* Chad`Winters eyes Billy.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sets it down, not wanting to eat it
<Marcus`> Final, eh?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya refuses to touch it
<Megumi> 6Chii rubs her chin.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien opens the candy and munches on it
* Myria eats the chocolate candy!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias takes it and pockets it. 1"Is it...Dark chocolate?
<Megumi> 6Freyja tosses it in the trash.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy's lower lip trembles at Freyja
<Marcus`> *Xanatos takes it and pockets it, nodding once to Billy.
<Seraphna> "Frey... that's no way to treat a gift."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the candy and tosses it in the trash
<Megumi> 6Freyja snickers.
* Seraphna just shakes her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis gives hers to Megumi
<Megumi> 6Freyja makes a prayer motion for the two discarded, presenting them to heaven.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Now that's rude.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren clears his throat. "Lets begin."
* Megumi stares at the chocolates, gazing toward Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren brings up images of thousands of bodies laying about the mountain side. And this is just in a few images. "As you can see, the military forces have been pushed again and again. We've deployed stun bombs, gas, and other weapons to try to stop the crowds, but the next waves of people just trample over the fallen."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shows images of it.
* Marcus` sits up, a frowning as he observes the images.
* Seraphna lets out a sigh.
* Ariel watches the presentation intently.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Riots and fighting have broken out amongst the people. Deaths are probably in the hundreds.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias rubs the back of his neck
<DeathStar> <Warren> It's estimated that our lines will be broken soon, when people become truly franatic as the real deadline approaches.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs the lower half of his face.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks away from the images.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs the back of his head.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos sighs.
<Seraphna> * Jen looks down and hugs her knees.
<DeathStar> <Warren> So far, no signs of alien influences, or Dark Ones. Or Legion. I imagine they're not going to waste their time until the final moments.
<Marcus`> *Theron makes no change in expression, he just nods once at that.
* Seraphna rubs her head. She looks over at Erevis quietly.
<Ariel> "...our military is going to be wrapped up in crowd control."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is quiet, her face stoic.
<Megumi> <Freyja> I've set up my own traps and wards, but they really won't suffice against so many people. They're only good for a few that reach the shrine's vicinity. Even there personally, I can't stop everyone.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Exactly.
<DeathStar> <Warren> With our military forces doing all they can to repel the crowds, it'll be up to us to stop any Dark One attacks. So, it's time for us to decide. Who will go after the gift, and who will fight the Dark Ones?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes them all.
<Megumi> <Freyja> I'll be defending the shrine. I don't care about the gift, so long as no one uses it for something stupid.
<Megumi> <Chii> ...
<Marcus`> <Theron> I shall defend.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm going for the gift.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I will defend.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Defense.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Gift.
<DeathStar> <Drake> ... Gift.
<Megumi> Chii> ...I guess that settles it. I'll be defending.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glances at Chii.
<Chad`Winters> Gift.
<Megumi> 6Lilith puts her hands to the table. 1"I'll be heading for the shrine."
* Marcus` glances at Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus looks at Raquel with interest.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The gift. This is, after all, my responsibility
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> You already told me you needed me to defend.
* Seraphna looks at them all as they speak.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods to Cass.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems to be doing a headcount of gift people.
<Myria> ...ummm...you said something about my Gear...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods. "Yes. I will get to that. unless you plan to go for the gift..."
<Ariel> 6* Raquel looks at Lilith.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias scrunches his face as he things
<Megumi> <Megumi> I'm taking Ariel to the shrine.
<Myria> I'd just waste the gift on Omega Cokes anyway.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Then I'll explain defense strategy in a bit
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina speaks. "Gift."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> You can count on me to single handedly take down the Dark Ones.
<Megumi> 6Chii blinks toward Katrina.
* Chad`Winters tilts his head slightly as he eyes Katrina
* Seraphna giggles a little at Dias.
<Marcus`> And by single-handedly, he means with my help.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina tries to play an Erevis emotionless face. But even Warren and Darien stare.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos sits up now, to turn and look at Kat.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Exactly. 6He points at Marcus
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I... I'll help defend."
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus seems surprised, but nods, accepting that
<Megumi> 6Lilith gazes down at Rauqel.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias eyes Raquel now a confused look on his face
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Then I'll lend aid on the battlefield.
<Seraphna> "Gift."
* Marcus` glances out of the corner of his eye at Kat, but he expected that, he looks to Raquel now, a bit surprised at that decision.
<Megumi> <Lilith> You... will not go with me?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Those going for the gift, your only objective is to get to it and to stay out of the way of the rest of us. Understood?
<Seraphna> "Understood."
* Chad`Winters grunts
<DeathStar> <Darien> Will do.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Yeah, yeah.
<Ariel> Raquel> "...if I went, I'd want to bring back the others... but I'd be letting the bad guys get by instead."
<Megumi> Without fail.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows her head.
<Megumi> 6Lilith nods slowly. 1"...Then will you not order me to stay with you?"
<Ariel> 6* Raquel smiles softly, "You're not my servant, Lilith... I'd like to have you at my side, but I can't force you to."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren speaks to the others who are defending.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Our goal is to stop the enemy from reaching the gift at any cost. I don't know what will be thrown at us, but we will be throwing everything we have at them. We will be hiding the Gears in the woods to the north here. 6* Points. "For the aftermath that Erevis mentioned. Or for any ships that appear."
<Megumi> <Chii> ...The... gears?
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I... thought we lost our gears?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Essentially, Myria's Gear. I also have been having the damaged Gears repaired. I don't know if they'll arrive in time. If not, it'll be Myria and Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sneers.
<Megumi> <Chii> ...Alright.
<Megumi> 6Lilith blinks and looks to Raquel. 1"...Anubis
<DeathStar> <Warren> I'm also equipping Cassandra with an experimental rail gun weapon that should be as powerful as a Gear weapon. It'll require extensive power, Cassandra, so don't overuse it.
<Myria> Yes, sir!
<DeathStar> <Warren> Or it'll overload on you.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer fidgets, listening to everything quietly.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> No one wants an overloaded Cassie.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> I'll hold it in reserve then.
<Megumi> <Lilith> Its main capabilities require it to rely on magnifying yours. ...This is good if it is sufficiently useable.
<Ariel> Raquel> *smiles* "...I can't pilot it without you."
<Megumi> <Lilith> I will return." 6She frowns.
<Megumi> <Lilith> It was created to uphold both of us.
<Megumi> 6Chii eyes Warren. 1"They finally started recreating working models of that thing?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *looks at Cassandra* Just be a better aim than that first time we met.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes Chii.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos laughs. "Nice one."
<Ariel> 6* Raquel hugs Lilith. She feels bad about taking her away from that fight... but she did need to.
* Chad`Winters snorts.
* Seraphna quietly looks over her shield bracer while others talk.
<Megumi> 6Chii looks toward Jennifer. 1"Haha, kiddo. Looks like you'll get to see why I had to sabotage its first curtain call."
<Seraphna> * Jennifer blinks a bit, "I will?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> I've also gotten the green light to give all of you defending the new plasma weapon. It should work better against the Dark Ones.
<Megumi> <Chii> Alright!
<DeathStar> <Warren> Like the rail gun, don't over use it.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Understood.
<Marcus`> So we keep it in reserve for people like Asmodeus, then.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Or Dark Soldiers that Xanatos Durran and Erevis encountered.
<Megumi> <Chii> ...Wait, what kind of weapon is it?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
<Seraphna> "A pity we don't have the runes..."
<Megumi> 6Freyja giggles.
* Ariel nods, wishing her blade was fixed.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel. "Do not use the wish on the blade. We can repair the blade in other ways, I am sure."
<Seraphna> "She'd never pick a sword over Zephyr..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien half-laughs.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos glances at Erevis, then looks to Warren. "It's a shame we can't all have an Emerald Weapon. That thing is nice."
* Seraphna looks at Ariel.
* Ariel just blinks at Erebis.
<Megumi> 6Megumi peers at Xanatos, then protectively puts her hands over the green sphere.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Also, Chii, I have a new toy for you. See me after the meeting.
<Megumi> 6Chii inclines her head. 1"For me?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> Your name is Chii.
<Megumi> 6Chii scoffs.
<Seraphna> * Jenn smiles a little.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Is everyone clear on what we're going to do? We can't let the Dark Ones get this wish. And we have to face whatever this 'aftermath' is head on. And if we can, we need to end Legion here.
* Marcus` places his hand on his knee and leans on it, his body shifted a bit oddly, "Yes, sir."
<DeathStar> <Drake> Aye, sir.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Yes, sir.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina nods.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> HO! 6He pumps his fits into the air
<Seraphna> "Ten four."
<Megumi> Understood.
<Megumi> <Chii> Hell yeah.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC simply nods
<DeathStar> <Warren> The plasma guns are in the armory. Myria, please equip the rail gun onto CAssandra. It's in the worshop.
<Seraphna> Jenn> "Yup!"
<DeathStar> <Warren> We depart in 30 mins.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> This is cute, everyone all saying yes at once.
<Megumi> 6Chii leans against the wall.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stands up and hurries out
<Ariel> 6* Raquel looks to Lilith. She pauses, "...Lil... what were you going to wish for?"
* Ariel sighs, "...it always comes down to something like this. Doesn't it?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Down to what?
<Myria> Hehehehehe... *eyes Cass*
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> ...just...great...
<Megumi> Mama Knight, shall we meditate beforehand, or is that through?
<Megumi> 6Lilith smiles at Raquel, patting her head. 1"That the Weapons could have another chance."
<Seraphna> * Jennifer looks up at her Dad curiously as people start to move.
<Megumi> <Lilith> Like myself.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC get's up and moves out to the armory
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at Chii. His expression softens - well, part of his face.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer blinks a little, and looks at Chii, then back at him.
<Marcus`> *Theron stands and glances around, then turns to step out.
<Megumi> 6Chii tilts her head, a bit creeped out, honestly. 1"..Wh-What?"
<Megumi> 6Freyja looks on with interest.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I designed a weapon that channels your spiritual energy. It should allow you to create a plasma blast porportional to your spiritual energy. Of course, if you put too much into it, you'll just drain yourself and become useless.
<DeathStar> <Warren> It's in your locker.
<Myria> Come on, booby lady! To the workshop! *bounds out the door*
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *sighs and follows after Myria*
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias tosses his arms behind his head as he glances up at the ceiling.
<Megumi> 6Chii blinks a few times, processing. She grins. 1"Aww, that's so sweet."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna heads after the blue girl, to make sure she doesn't do anything she shouldn't.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel, waiting
* Chad`Winters glances down at Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is sitting there, thinking
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands up and walks out.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos glances around, then looks to Warren. "We going to be using Darien's shuttle to get there?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts to Chii, then looks at Xanatos. "Yes."
<Megumi> 6Chii pats Warren's shoulder and moves around to grin at Jennifer. 1"Your dad rocks." 6Then skips after Cheryl.
* Seraphna sits back and sighs, looking at people quietly, thinking.
<Seraphna> Jenn> "He does."
<Megumi> <Freyja> Hee. Well, I guess I'll be heading back, then. I'll see you all shortly.
<Ariel> "...hmm?"
<Marcus`> *Xanatos nods and stands, "I'll be there, then." He turns and moves out.
<Seraphna> * Jen looks up at her Dad, "Anything I can do to help?"
<Marcus`> *Theron steps into the armory to aquire his new weapon.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jsut smiles politely, bows, and steps out.
* Chad`Winters reaches into his tact belt and hands Aya small tablet.
<DeathStar> <Warren> No. ... Do you intend to come?
* Megumi peers at Ariel, waiting for an answer.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pauses, taking the tablet, looking at it
<Megumi> 6Chii moves for the armoury and checks her locker.
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "THat'd be pretty crazy..." *she blinks a bit, surprised by the question*
<DeathStar> 6* The gun is there, as said.
* Marcus` looks over to Katrina. Then stands and steps into the hallway.
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "Did you want me to?"
<Megumi> 6Chii rubs her chin. 1"That's... three guns."
<DeathStar> <Warren> I don't want you there. No. But that's not what I asked.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina, having already left, can't be stared at.
<Marcus`> *Theron observes the new plasma gun, moving it from hand to hand, adjusting to the balance.
* Ariel shakes her head, "For now... just try to prepare yourself for the upcoming fight."
<Chad`Winters> There's a tracking device in it, just in case.
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "...I suppose you should be asking, no I'm not going to sneak off there or anything."
<DeathStar> <Warren> That's not what I asked.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Oh. Okay. 6* She pockets it
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps in herself finally and moves to her locker. She opens it and grabs the new plasma gun, holstering it
<Marcus`> *Xanatos steps into the 'hanger' and moves over to the shuttle.
<Chad`Winters> So what do you think? 6He looks down at her curiously
<DeathStar> <Aya> About? 6* She looks up at his face
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps back onto the roof, taking a deep breath
<Seraphna> * Jen seems at a loss for a moment. "I didn't have any intentions on going, and hearing you don't want me to just enforces that."
* Chad`Winters motions around with his finger
<Megumi> 6Chii glances around, then reaches back and fishes out her wirelet device. 1"Reacts to my channeling, right?" 6She hooks it to the under side and makes sure no one's around, then tosses out part of the wire and fires, seeing if she can manipulate it along the wire.
* Megumi smiles at Ariel. 1"Don't worry about that. If there's anything I can handle by now... it's strife."
<DeathStar> 6* Drake enters the shuttle, taking a seat.
* Marcus` moves along through the hallway, making his way towards the armory, he gets his weapons and puts them on himself, then steps back out.
<DeathStar> 6* The gun seems to do as designed.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos glances around, then steps back out into the hallway.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grunts. "We all have to grow up sometime." 6* He steps out.
<Seraphna> * Jen watches him go, looking completely confused.
<Marcus`> *Theron steps out and moves to observe Myria working on Cassandra.
<Megumi> <Chii> Heheh. Cheryl might like this.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina washes her face in the guest room
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias finally rises from his seat and moves out.
<Megumi> 6Chii gathers up a pair of satchels from the locker, her regular equipment, the shotgun and sniper rifle, and then jogs toward the shuttle with a grin.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts an arm around Ariel
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm going to steal her for a moment, Megumi.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos steps out onto the roof, looking out at Erevis. "Do you think you're ready?"
<Megumi> 6Lilith finishes patting Raquel's head and smiling, then moves around, toward the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks back at him, then out at the landscape. "As ready as I will be."
* Megumi nods to Darien, smiling again, then turns and runs for the innerworks.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves over and grabs her modified long range sniper rifle and tosses it over her shoulder.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya shrugs.
<Chad`Winters> You still look troubled.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Yeah.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos steps up beside her. "You didn't experience this first hand, but you understand what is going to happen. I can't tell if that's a good thing, or a burden."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leads Ariel out of the meeting room.
* Myria adapting the rail gun to Cass' power system...
* Marcus` steps up to Kat's door and knocks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is a burden I willingly bare.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel heads after Lilith.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses. "Enter."
<Seraphna> * Jennifer rubs her head and thinks about what to do.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Just in case this all goes horriblely wrong, and I don't get a chance to tell you later. I love you, Ariel.
<Chad`Winters> But you don't want to talk to me about it.
* Marcus` steps inside, standing just inside the doorway. "Hey."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Not really. I don't know what I think.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Of course. *he tilts his head to look at her* I wanted to aplogize.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Marcus. Hi.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I ... do not understand. Why? 6* She tilts her head, confused.
<Megumi> 6Chii glances around those on the shuttle, then moves for the panels after strewing out tools and the new equipment. She hits the comm and contacts the meeting room.
* Seraphna gets up and walks over to Jennifer. "Forget what he wants, forget what you think you should do because of it. Whatever your decision is, make it completely on your own and stick to it."
<Marcus`> I uhh, well I just wanted to come by and wish you luck. You never know what will happen in events like this. *he gives her a half smile*
* Seraphna shakes her head and walks away.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Thank you. 6* She manages a weak smile.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks along, half-wondering if Freyja will appear and bother him.
<Chad`Winters> It's hard, isn't it?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Because of me, you almost lost your way. I...well I just made things difficult, and I never wanted to do that.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer just stares at the doorway, unused to wisdom coming out of Angela.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC grabs clips then turns, moving out
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You have nothing to be sorry about, Xanatos. 6* She says softly. "I only wish I had more time. This event only signals that my time is almost over."
<Megumi> 6Freyja takes a while, but does move up alongside Warren, leaning forward so she can smile up at his troubled expression.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Ah. There you are.
<Marcus`> I also wanted to say that I want you to be careful. But I guess that just goes without saying. *he rubs the back of his neck*
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I will be.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Almost over? *he arches a brow, confused* What does that mean?
<Megumi> <Freyja> Mh. Sorry, Chii called from the shuttle. She wants you to know that she's overjoyed with the new toy and such. She had a look like Jennifer might if you called her your precious daughter.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> As I told Megumi Zhenmei, there cannot be two Erevises in the same timeline.
<Chad`Winters> I wish things were easy Aya.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> So you will leave, and the other will come back?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Hm. It was the least I can do.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis inclines her head slightly. "It is meant to be."
<Megumi> <Freyja> And how are you?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Fine.
* Marcus` glances at Kat, a slight frown on his face. "I'm rooting for you Kat. If anyone deserves this wish, it's you."
<DeathStar> <Aya> I know. 6* She smiles at Chad. "I love you, too, Daddy."
<Chad`Winters> I love you too. 6He smiles back and leans over, hugging her.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pauses awkwardly, wondering if Marcus even knows what she wishes for. "Thanks."
<Seraphna> * Jennifer looks over and sighs, turning away from the display she gets up and walks out of the room.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya returns the hug. "I don't know, but I think mom would want Zephyr to be wished back. I never knew mom, but Zephyr can hurt Legion, and many people miss her."
<DeathStar> <Aya> And I think she would want that.
* Marcus` seems to not really know, he turns to step out before he pauses. "....I care about you more than you know. Or maybe you do know."
<Megumi> <Freyja> Ever thought of using the wish to extend your life?
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> I see. *he glances up at the sky* And here I was under the assumption that you were here for good.
<DeathStar> <Warren> No.
<Megumi> <Freyja> Oh come on, it's not so bad, is it?
<Chad`Winters> I think your right. 6He rests against her. 1"I'll find another way for you to learn more about Eve."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You're... a good friend, Marcus.
<DeathStar> <Warren> No.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is why I think a relationship with Megumi Zhenmei - or yourself - 6* She adds, "would be unwise."
* Marcus` glances over his shoulder and gives her a smile. "I know, Kat. Don't die." He holds up his hand in a wave and steps out.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer stops a little down the hallway from Freyja and Warren.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Yet when I was dead, you were with Megumi.
<Megumi> <Freyja> I understand, I guess. It's envious, making the most of what you have.
<Chad`Winters> I'll make sure to bring Zephyr back for everyone Aya.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> And you would be content to be with me, even if it were for a week or two, and then have me gone forever again? 6* She shakes her head. "I am sorry, Xanatos Durran."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
<Megumi> 6Freyja peers at him. 1"You want to see... her? Again?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shakes his head. "Not anymore. When I die, I will see her. That's enough."
<Megumi> 6Freyja smiles. 1"I didn't mean here."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pauses, then nods.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer blinks a little, looking down.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps onto Marcus back as he walks
* Marcus` grunts and stumbles forward.
* Seraphna wanders the halls quietly.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Life has taught me people can come back from anything. In another time, I moved on and found another lover. All wounds heal, Freyja. One need not wait for death to be with their loved one. Nor does one have to wait forever alone. If they do not want to
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pulls out a wallet, glancing at a photo of Ben, a hint of regret on his face.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> The thing is, people are fickle. I know that you're not exactly my Erevis, but you are still Erevis, you're no different from her. All the qualities I love of her, I love of you. People need one another to feel, so even if it were just for a week or two, if I could be the person that gives you a bit of happiness before your time it up. I would gladly be that person.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Looks like you'll be needing two hands to take down the Dark Ones.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer shuffles her feet, walking towards them now.
* Marcus` shifts to make DIas get off of him, he shrugs. "Good thing I have two hands then, eh?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina gets onto the shuttl finally, since it's almost time.
* Ariel hugs Darien, "...we'll get through this one. We've been through worse, right?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops onto his feet. 1"Yeah, good thing. Of course if it was me, I'd just beat them with my feet."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps onto the shuttle herself, her mask in her hands.
<Megumi> <Freyja> I understand. Because I'm inhuman, perhaps, it took me much longer to realize. Is there anything you'd like to ask of me?
<Marcus`> *Theron steps back. "It is almost time." He informs Myria and steps out, moving to the shuttle.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know. 6* He kisses her on the cheek and moves for the hanger, the 30 mins having passed somehow.
<Myria> Ok, ok!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis gives him a smile. "It is time."
* Seraphna heads to the hangar.
<Chad`Winters> I gotta go Aya. 6He let's go of her
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pulls back. "I know."
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *leaves the workshop, now in full assault gear plus new rail gun, heading for the hangar.
<Chad`Winters> Stay safe Aya. 6He stands up himself now.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos bows his head. "Then we better go. Warren would probably leave us."
<Marcus`> This is going to be tuff, you think you're ready?
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shakes his head once, and pockets the photo.
<DeathStar> <Warren> It is time
<DeathStar> 6 *Warren moves for theh anger.
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "Dad?"
<Myria> ...alright...now to summon Madara!
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks back.
<Marcus`> *Theron steps onto the shuttle and takes his seat.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets on the shuttle.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer stands there, looking uneasy.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy stands by the shuttle, waiting for her moms to wish them good luck
* Chad`Winters moves to the exit than stops, looking back at Aya.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves into the hanger with Marcus.
<Megumi> 6Freyja smiles between Warren and Jennifer. She whispers something, but no one can hear, backing toward the wall with her eyes closed, disappearing.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer starts walking so she won't hold him up. "I wanted to say something..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis kisses Xan's cheek, and moves for the hanger.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Billy, here to see me off?
<DeathStar> <Billy> Yes, Tool Momma.
<Megumi> 6Chii peers over at Cheryl as she boards-- having the new device disassembled and reassembled in a new configuration. 1"Cheryl! Warren's brilliant."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks. "Yes?"
* Marcus` smacks Dias on the chest, then laughs as he gets onto the shuttle.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> ...let's not start this again...
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ah. You don't hate him anymore then?
<Marcus`> *Xanatos watches her walk off and smiles slightly, moving after her.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias grimaces and chases after him up the ramp
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna laughs, and hugs Billy. "Try not to get into too much trouble, Billy."
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "I know how big this is... and how dangerous, and I... I hope you come back."
* Chad`Winters nods to Aya then heads out.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy hugs Setsuna. "Yes, Invisible Ninja Momma."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods once.
<Seraphna> Jen> "And... I love you Dad."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna grins at Cass. She has the better nickname.
<Megumi> 6Chii closes up a pannel, affixing the device to her wrist as a strange bracer with a second part to her other wrist. She reaches over and yanks out the wire and pulls it taut, grinning.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> How come she gets the good nick name?
<DeathStar> <Warren> I love you as well, Jennifer. Take care of your brother.
<Megumi> <Chii> Nah, I forgive him for slamming me into the hood a few times. This was worth it.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Because she bribes me.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *just gives Setsuna a look.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer nods. "I will... be careful."
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna whistles innocently.
* Chad`Winters steps out of a side hallway and nods to Warren as he walks along side the two
<DeathStar> 6* Warren walks along beside Chad.
* Marcus` sits down, pulling his arms up to cross them. "So Dias. Are we going to do the usual kill count?"
<Megumi> 6Megumi enters the shuttle in her battle outfit.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Come on... *boards the shuttle*
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well it's the only fair way to decide.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer sticks with him, going along to see them off.
<Marcus`> You better not cheat like you usually do.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien enters the shuttle and takes the pilot seat, flicking switches and powering up.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Pscht. 6He looks over at Cheryl. 1"You want in on it Cheryl?"
<Ariel> 6* Ariel takes a seat and straps herself in.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> No.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna boards and takes a seat.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Alright. 6He looks at Marcus. 1"I claim her kills for my own than."
<Megumi> 6Chii smiles at Cheryl. 1"You remember what I can do with this." 6She focuses lacing the wire with plasma. 1"It just got better." 6She shuts it off and sits back, putting all the tools away with glee.
* Myria runs outside and summons Madara via personal linkup!
<Marcus`> Right, well then I get everyone elses kills as my own. That means Theron too.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> No, no. That doesn't count
<DeathStar> 6* Warren enters the shuttle with Chad.
<Marcus`> Well then obviously you don't get Cheryl's.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Warren. 1"You ready for this?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunts*
* Seraphna sits on the shuttle, checking her weapons.
* Chad`Winters smirks and pats him on the back.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flicks a switch and raises the ramp, raising the shuttle into the air.
<Megumi> 6Lilith sits with Raquel and Caduceus apparently.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh now you're just being fickle about it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps onto the shuttle as the ramp rises and the shuttle rises
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits down
<Marcus`> *Xanatos hops up after her, sitting down.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flashes Xan a smile
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fine, I don't need Cheryl's massive kill number to beat you.
<Megumi> 6Megumi peers between Ariel and Erevis, fidgeting.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> That was completely an accident, right? *he sits down in the co-pilot's seat*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis closes her eyes, calm.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So usual bet? 6He looks at him
<Marcus`> Wait, how many usual bets do we have?
* Seraphna claims her usual seat on the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy watches them go, then begins to take over the base
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flies the shuttle for the mountain shrine
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pauses. 1"Yeah...I guess we have 14.
<Marcus`> We'll go with usual bet number 6, then.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I would like in on this action than. 6She looks over at the two.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias holds his fist out to seal the deal with Marcus than looks over at SPoC
* Marcus` pauses and glances at SPoC, then looks to Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* The streets of Tokyo are in disorder, as people are standing around, and traffic is backed up. Shuttle traffic is in the way, as what few military shuttles that could be pulled in are being used to keep shuttles out of the military blockade zone around the shrine
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sure, I guess. 6He looks shocked.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Gee, these seats are pretty comfortable. Kind of high, though.
<Marcus`> What do you have to offer to the bet?
* Seraphna sits back and sighs, "Nervous Darien?"
<Megumi> <Chii> Can I shoot down some of these guys in the way?
<DeathStar> 6 *Warren flies over the country side, where --- millions of people are seen. Fighting and rioting can be seen. Fires have broken out in some parts of the woods.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I will carve a statue of you two.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake looks out. "God."
<Marcus`> And if you win?
* Megumi peers out with Drake.
<Marcus`> *Theron looks out, a frown appears onto his face.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Its a madhouse down there.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> You will run around the base naked. On your hands.
<Marcus`> But then my penis would hit me in the eye...
<DeathStar> <Warren> Enough talk.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren snaps.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I can shor-6She looks over at Warren then nods.
* Marcus` pauses and nods. "Sorry."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina frowns at them all.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just stares, too awe struck at all this
<Marcus`> *Xanatos just gives Sera a smile and gets off of her, holding a hand up against the shuttle wall as he peers out. "..."
<DeathStar> 6* The military perimeter can be seen. It's a brutual fight going on, and shield technology is being used as well. Darien brings them down near the lake.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren's comm buzzes and Alexander's voice speaks. "The Tsivrixsh and Ridiarium forces have begun assaulting our colonies and borders. Our military will definitely be too tied to properly defend Earth now."
* Seraphna grumbles.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien powers down, glancing back as Alexander speaks
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...I'm glad we don't have a lot of civilian pilots."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am a civilian pilot.
<Marcus`> *Theron frowns, looking down.
<Megumi> <Megumi> Me too?
<Megumi> <Chii> I think I was conscripted.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> We just do our job...
<Chad`Winters> Expected. 6He looks over at Warren.
<Marcus`> All the cool people are civilian pilots Sets.
<Marcus`> NRP: Xanatos*
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, a minor alien world vessel zooms in overhead, circling about. Daarien whistles. "Oh, look. Visitors."
<DeathStar> 6* He lowers the ramp.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I guess we'll give them an Earth welcome. 6he moves down ther amp
<Marcus`> *Theron stands and steps down the ramp.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I guess they got past the defense grid.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC pulls the mask over her face. The sad face worn from years of use. She stands up and moves down the ramp
<Marcus`> So we'll befriend them and slowly sap away their resources? *he walks down after Dias*
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps out, sneering.
* Seraphna adjusts her weapons and gets up.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *leaves the shuttle...
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Sounds 'bout right.
<Chad`Winters> Doesn't say much about our defense grid.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake steps out, rubbing the back of his head, eyeing the lake.
<Marcus`> I hope you brought some booze, then.
<Megumi> 6Chii trots out, looking gleeful still.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren listens to comm chatter. "They're ignoring our warnings to leave."
* Megumi steps down the ramp, gazing at the lake and the shrine in the slight distance. 1"..."
<Seraphna> "Like they intended to jsut pick up and go away if we said no."
<Marcus`> *Xanatos winks at Erevis when he passes her, looking up once down the ramp.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien crosses his arms.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head at him.
* Chad`Winters unholsters his modified gun.
<Megumi> <Chii> Too bad this didn't appear on a dark planet or something. We could have looked forward to them getting cremated in the process instead of Earth.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus just sits on the shuttle.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Lets shoot them down.
<Megumi> 6Lilith rises and moves down the ramp.
* Marcus` glances at Warren then pulls up his shotgun, switching to condensed fire.
* Megumi glances back to the shuttle, looking for Ariel.
* Myria has herself hidden in the north woods as Warren's plan said.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks over at Warren then unholsters her sniper rifle and pulls back the bolt for it. She lifts it up and begins aiming.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks up at the shuttle.
<Marcus`> *Theron lifts up his rifle, taking aim, scanning the shuttle for known weaknesses.
* Seraphna loads a blue shell and a red shell into her samaritan and smirks a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* The scans tell him jack.
<Megumi> 6Lilith peers at the group, then begins moving toward the shrine.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> We know who it belongs to?
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC aims for one of it's wings and pulls the trigger, sending a high powered plasma bolt at it
<Marcus`> <Theron> I am unfamilier with this design. Perhaps they are a race that keep to themselves.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I think it's one of the minor races we got to join the original PAX.
<DeathStar> 6* The wing is damaged slightly, but not enough to bring it down. The shuttle takes evasive manuevers.
* Seraphna aims at whatever seems to be an engine output and fires an EMP shell into it.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> And they are twitching.
<DeathStar> 6* The engine cuts off and it plummets, crashing
<DeathStar> 6* A big explosion ensures.
<Seraphna> "One less shuttle."
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Smart move.
* Chad`Winters pulls the bolt back and begins aiming again. She looks over at Angela
<DeathStar> 6* A family of people run out on fire, screaming. A man, a woman, and two younger people, like children
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> And whoever was piloting it obviously
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina makes a gasp.
* Marcus` widens his eyes and looks down.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "......"
<DeathStar> 6* Drake glances away.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Holy shit, that's not good.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren frowns.
<Megumi> <Chii> Heh, bad press.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Put them out! Someone!
* Chad`Winters clicks his, eyeing Angela himself now
* Seraphna stares, then moves to help them.
<Marcus`> *Theron frowns and lowers his rifle.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grits her teeth.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fuck.
<Chad`Winters> Chii, use your water abilities.
<Megumi> 6Chii holds her hands up and forms seal, intent on dousing them all with water. 1"Suiton."
<Megumi> <Chii> On it.
<DeathStar> 6* The water splashes them and their burnt bodies collapse.
* Seraphna keeps heading over to them, immediately grabbing her medical kit and treating burns.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus watches Sera treating them.
* Ariel rubs her head.
<Megumi> Shall we, Mama Knight?
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Come'on Angie. Let the Doc do his job.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Darien. 1"And do you see why I?"
<Chad`Winters> 6He just motions
<Megumi> <Chii> Chad, in all fairness, we said we were going to do this.
* Seraphna looks up, "Right... you have a doctor..."
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Hm? Oh, let her do it. No sense in me wasting my energy for strangers.
<Megumi> 6Chii crosses her arms. 1"It's going to be difficult to keep people away if we're shaken by the very first to arrive.
<Chad`Winters> I don't plan on killing unless it's my only option.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hrms. "They wanted the wish. We can't go easy on people."
<Marcus`> <Theron> She did what I would have done, Mr. Winters. We have not the royalties of caution.
* Ariel nods to Megumi, and starts towards the shrine.
* Megumi accompanies Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches them head for the shrine. "We do not know if the gift is in there." 6* She notes, and makes no move to go to it.
* Seraphna finishes treating them and lays a small beacon for emergency care, if it'll ever come, she stands and rejoins them.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Do we have any idea where it would be?
<Megumi> It's the only lead we have and it's not our task to defend. Warren said to stay out of the way.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We will know, when it is time.
* Ariel pauses, "It seemed as good of a place to start as any."
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves over to Warren. 1"Your orders."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows her head to Megumi and Ariel, but remains where she is. Darien eyes Erevis, and stays near her.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina seems to think hard herself now.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Sometimes this job sucks.
* Seraphna sticks to Darien and Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Warren> For now we hold this position.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Looks like we'll help defend until the time is right.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs his head and walks over toward Ariel and Megumi.
<Ariel> Setsuna> "Certainly not the most glamourous."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Understood. 6She pulls out a shell and reloads her sniper rifle
<DeathStar> 6* Warren holds his hand to his ear. "It seems people have broken through a part of the perimeter." 6* He turns north-eastward.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl activates her whip.
* Chad`Winters switches his gun to stun rounds and clicks the safety off.
* Marcus` raises his head and turns towards the position where Warren is looking. He switches his shotgun back to spreadshot and slides it down to stun.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias mouths the direction than just looks at where Warren turns to.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Let's go pacify then. *starts moving*
* Seraphna holsters her samaritan after reloading a blue shell and takes out a normal gun, setting it to stun.
<DeathStar> 6* In the distance, hundreds of people can be seen rushing toward them - the only blessing, they seem intent on decking each other as well as getting ahead.
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna nods, and switches in her non-lethal ammo.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at the approaching people.
<Marcus`> *Theron pulls up his rifle and kneels down, sets it to stun and aims with his scope.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC pulls her clip out and slips in a stun clip. She kneels down and pulls her sniper rifle up and begins aiming.
<Megumi> <Chii> I'll save my energy then. Eventually we'll be dealing with those that stunning won't be effective on.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pulls out his weapons. He begins to fire, not bothering to worry about distance.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC begins to fire shots at the oncomign people.
* Myria loads up some adhesive grenades into the underslung-launcher and sets the assault gun for stun shots.
<Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *loads up some adhesive grenades into the underslung-launcher and sets the assault gun for stun shots.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien curses and moves over to the shuttle. He begins to move it to face the people.
* Myria is now known as Cassandra`
<Marcus`> *Theron takes steady aim and begins to luanch round after round towards the people.
* Chad`Winters lifts his pistol up and starts firing into the crowd.
* Seraphna pulls out one of her orbs, making some adjustments to the device.
<DeathStar> 6* The people cry out as they're hit by the attacks, but where many fall, many more just show up.
<Seraphna> "Anyone have a good throwing arm?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes his watch. "Dammit. We still have too much time before the Gift shows."
<Megumi> 6Chii waves at Angela.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias bounces back and forth at the head of their group, waiting for anyone to get close
<DeathStar> 6* Darien fires the shuttle's stun shots into the crowd.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos tilts his head and pulls up his pistols. He makes sure they are on stun and begins to fire.
* Seraphna hands the orb to Chii. "Get it at least seventy feet away into that crowd."
* Marcus` stands beside Dias, holding his shotgun ready, waiting for them to get into range.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake is still following Ariel and Megumi into the shrine, if that's where htey're going.
<Megumi> <Chii> ...Seventy?
* Cassandra` fires an adhesive round on the groun in front of the crowd to slow them down.
<Seraphna> "Seventy. Radius of the blast is nearly 50... normally."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren keeps firing, taking head shots. It's like something from Drakengard.
<Megumi> 6Chii quickly twitches, turns and flings the orb in front of the adhesive round heading for the crowd.
<Megumi> <Chii> There you go.
<Seraphna> * When the orb touches down, it sends out a widespread version of one of Angela's stun traps.
<DeathStar> 6* A person pulls out a gun and fires at Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* He's a bad shot.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos pauses and moves out of the way, standing near Chad, and not wanting the bullet to stray and hit him.
* Ariel has hesitated on teh shrine bit for now.
* Seraphna fires her own gun at Chad's assailiant.
* Chad`Winters shifts as the bullet zings by him. He shifts his aim and fires a stun shot right back
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis psionically begins to bat people aroun
<Marcus`> Wait. Do stun downs count? *he glances at Dias8
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC turns slightly and fires several more round sinto the crowd, aiming for chest shots
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well punching is stunning....
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit, the hundred rush stops ---- and trinkles down to 50 or so. They stop
<Marcus`> Gotcha. *he glances to them stopping*
<Marcus`> *Theron pauses in his fire, he glances at Warren.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren frowns
* Megumi peers upward.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, eyeing his scanners. "Oh fuck us--"
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC drops the empty clip and slips a new one in.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos glances around, then looks up.
<DeathStar> 6* They begin to use the stolen military weapons and launch a stun bomb at the team. Behind them, another 100 people come rushing forward, and a military jeep zooms forward, firing rail blasts at the group
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl curses and dives into the lake
<Cassandra`> What the hell?!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien raises the shields for the shuttle
<Seraphna> "What the fuck!"
* Chad`Winters leaps to the side, rolling in a ball.
<Megumi> 6Megumi holds her hand forward, and thrusts... attempting to push the stun bomb back the way it came.
* Cassandra` runs to evade, returning fire.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Of fuck us indeed. *he moves to dives out of the way*
* Seraphna leaps to one side and runs for cover.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC jerks and begins dashing backwards.
* Marcus` smacks Dias and motions to follow Cheryl into the Lake.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis joins Megumi, and the stun bomb stops and is thrown back.
<Megumi> 6Chii twists and snarls at the jeep, tossling her hand to send a slew of shurikens for its front tires
<DeathStar> 6* Warren twists as rail blasts fly past him.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl leaps out of the water and rushes the jeep.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just laughs and turns, dashing towards the jeep.
<DeathStar> 6* The people scream as they're stunned.
<Marcus`> *Theron moves to the side, spinning around to fire at the group behind them.
<Megumi> <Chii> ...The fuck are those two doing
* Ariel dives for cover and forms her armour. Bloody railguns...
<DeathStar> 6* The jeep people aim at Dias and Cheryl
* Cassandra` loads up an EMP shot, firing to shut off the jeep's ignition system.
* Chad`Winters stands up, pulling Ebony out now, he aims at a rail gun and fires.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pants. Her white streak just a bit longer now.
<DeathStar> 6* The jeep jerks to avoid, and can't fire at Dias and Cheryl yet.
* Marcus` pulls up his shotgun and starts firing off spread shot stuns for the group of 50, moving to the left.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl forms her whip. She grabs the jeep as it zooms by, and it retches her arm out of socket. She lets out a curse scream.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel draws an arrow once she gets to safety, and attempts to ripple it through the ammo belt for one of the jeeps.
<Megumi> 6Chii takes a step and flings another shuriken for the tires, forming a seal afterwards. 1"Futon!" 6She laces the weapon with wind and adjusts its aim.
<DeathStar> 6* The jeep attempts to find out what's going on with the ammo
<DeathStar> 6* The tires, reinforced, take the shuriken jsut fine
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's eyes go dark and she unleashes dark energy into the side of the tank, denting it
* Seraphna pulls out her Samaritan and switches to the red bullet, she fires the explosive shot into the ground on the jeep's path.
<DeathStar> *jeep
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC slides backwards and switches her clip. She aims at the jeeps tire and fires a high powered shell into it
<DeathStar> 6* The jeep is hit and begins to swerve.
<Marcus`> *Xanatos hops himself up and moves to the side, focusing on dropping people using the military weapons.
* Chad`Winters shifts his other hand and aims it at another person firing a stunned shot
<DeathStar> 6* Warren fires at the people now, who are helpless to stun shots.
<DeathStar> 6* The jeep swerves and crashes into the lake
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias dashes in at a guy
* Seraphna joins in on the stun shots.
<DeathStar> 6* The guy screams in fear.
<DeathStar> <Guy> Please! DOn't!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps at him, throwing a punch for his gut
<Cassandra`> The jeep is down! *fires stun shots into the crowd now*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lowers the shields and goes back to firing stun shots
<DeathStar> 6* Drake watches - he's a sword user. Same with Katrina
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes deep breaths.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC switches out clips again and goes back to stun shots. She resumes taking them out from her position
<Megumi> 6Chii moves to eyes the approaching crowds and forms two more seals, "1Futon, Hyoton, rengeki da." 6She forms a snow flurry, more delaying than anything, but blood cold.
* Chad`Winters quickly holsters Ebony and aims his other gun at people, firing off aimed shots.
<DeathStar> 6* The onslaught - stops once more. Unconscious bodies lay about
<Marcus`> *Theron stands up.
<Cassandra`> ...anymore surprises inbound...?
* Marcus` shifts back to the others.
<Megumi> <Chii> Of course.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shoves a stunned guy off his knee.
<Megumi> 6Chii crossed her arms.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl has yet to emerge from the lake/jeep crash
<Marcus`> *Xanatos scratches his nose with the side of his pistol.
<Megumi> 6Chii turns, bothered and goes for the lakeshore, peering in.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the bodies, then listens to radio chatter.
* Chad`Winters drops his clip onto the ground. He grabs another one and slaps it in
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl emerges, dripping wet, and pissed. As usual.
<Megumi> 6Chii huffs. 1"You got 'em, Cheryl."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Marcus. I got 15.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts.
<Marcus`> Hah, I almost have double your score.
<DeathStar> 6* A family - a father with his two children, rushes ahead, apparantly having waited for the onslaught to make his move
<Megumi> 6Chii gazes at Cheryl, then back amongst the crowds, feeding off the intents.
<Marcus`> *Theron turns and aims
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes them.
<Seraphna> "He brought his kids? What the hell."
<Cassandra`> We have three runners.
<Seraphna> "Tell them to turn around or something."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Yeah well if my fist spread out. I'd get that many too.
<Marcus`> Hey, I didn't say it was fair. *he looks towards the family* That guy is lame.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Turn around back into the million of rioting people?
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Stun them and put them on the shuttle.
<Megumi> 6Chii opens her eyes, turns and hurls a trail of shurikens before the guy as a warning.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> They may be safer there.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pauses, then stuns all three.
<DeathStar> 6* Before he can react to Chii's tactics.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Do it.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shakes off her clothes.
<Marcus`> *Theron moves over and lifts both of the Children up, moving to place them on the shuttle.
<Seraphna> "Oi..."
<Marcus`> *Xanatos nods and moves over to drag the guy aboard.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks at the watch. "Only a bit more to go." 6* He tells Ariel and the others.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. He loosk at Ariel. "Ready?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren suddenly pauses, his face going grim and his eyes narrowing.
<Marcus`> *Theron steps back off of the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina stares at him, reading his dark emotions quite reasily.
* Seraphna reloads her samaritan and holsters it.
<Cassandra`> ...what is it, sir?
<Marcus`> *Xanatos does as well, he pauses and eyes Warren.
<DeathStar> <Warren> The entire perimeter just broke. We got thousands of civilians incoming.
<Megumi> <Chii> Showtime.
<Chad`Winters> Great. How long until they get here?
<DeathStar> 6* The ground begins to shake. In the distance, the crowd can be seen
<DeathStar> <Drake> I think now.
* Ariel nods slowly. "...this will be interesting."
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...fuck."
<Cassandra`> ...and just what are we supposed to do about that?!
<DeathStar> 6* Warren turns to eye it, grimacing.
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Shoot until you can't shoot anymore.
<Chad`Winters> I'd say have Chii create a ring of fire but I doubt that'll stop them.
<Megumi> 6Chii forms a seal, then slams her palm to the ground. 1"Doton." 6She breaks the ground in a circular pattern around them with spires of earth. It's not a wall, but it'll thin them out.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Tch. Well, there's worse ways to die.
<Marcus`> *Theron arches a brow and kneels back to one knee.
<Megumi> <Chii> Huh, fire. Now why didn't I think of that?
<Megumi> <Chii> Oh yeah, you said non-lethal.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches the people.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs. "Now these odds suck."
<Marcus`> I'm proud of you Chii-Chii. *he gives her a smile and turns toward the crowd*
<Ariel> Setsuna> "...if only those psiamps worked on people."
<Megumi> <Chii> Tch.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, a beam of dark energy flies in from the sky, eradicating hundreds of people, causing a panic and chaos.
* Seraphna sighs and takes out a few more orbs, working on adjusting them.
<Megumi> <Chii> Heh. Bingo.
* Seraphna looks up.
<Seraphna> "Aw shit."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks up, freaking out at the emotions.
* Chad`Winters slides his left hand along his belt, pulling out 4 small spheres
<Cassandra`> ...they're here...
<Ariel> 6* Setsuna calmly switches ammo
<DeathStar> 6* Warren looks up. Suddenly decloaking is a ... Tsivrixsh Battlecruiser that's...got Dark One technology embedded into it. A hyrbid.
* Megumi peers upward. 1"...Mama Knight."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias > I believe that's our cue.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsivrixsh Warriors begins to teleport all around.
* Marcus` looks up and pulls his left arm out to the side, it tensing up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> What in the hell.
<Chad`Winters> And here I thought we were the only ones in league with the Tsiv.
<Marcus`> <Theron> Perhaps this is why lady Shretrav was alive.
<Seraphna> "With the Tsiv?"
* Seraphna looks at Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Tsivrixsh Warriors begin to fill the area, all around them, even cutting them off from the shrine.
<Chad`Winters> Dark Ones. 6He corrects
<DeathStar> 6* Drake whips out his sword now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns, her eyes colder now.
<Cassandra`> ...orders?
<Marcus`> <Xanatos> Looks like we won't be needing to worry about stunning people anymore.
* Chad`Winters pulls out ebony now.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Eliminate the Tsivrixsh Warriors.
<Megumi> 6Chii whips out both of her guns, turns them to burst fire and begins unloading into the ring of Tsivirixsh appearing.
<DeathStar> 6* The Warriors begin to smash in human skulls wiht Xvashes.
* Seraphna pulls out her samaritan and her sword.
* Ariel looks to Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Darklings begin to appear, leaping in all around
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Now that's my kind of order. 6He stomps his foot and breaks into a full dash at a tsiv warrior
<Cassandra`> They're hitting the civilians!
<Ariel> 6* Raquel wastes no time rippling an arrow at the head of a Tsiv
<DeathStar> 6* Warren fires at the Tsivrixsh Warriors.
<Megumi> <Chii> No shit.
<DeathStar> 6* the Tsivrixsh loses his head.
<DeathStar> 6* A Darkling leaps at Raquel.
* Seraphna fires a red shell into a group of Tsiv.
* Marcus` slides his shotgun away and pulls out his blades, running after Dias.
<Megumi> 6Chii continues firing rapidly, shifting one gun to fire at the Darkling going for Raquel.
<DeathStar> 6* They form a shield that repells the shell.
<Megumi> 6Chii uses her other palm to reload that gun, then shifts hands and continues firing.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC switches ammo and turns, firing sniper shots into the darklings
<DeathStar> 6* That also blocks Chii's attack. Well, not poor Darkling. He dies.
* Cassandra` switches to lethal shots and starts aiming for the Tsiv warriors.
<DeathStar> 6* The Darklings skitter about as they're shot. Apparantly they have no shields
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh Warriors continue to use mysterious shields.
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue and begins firing both guns at Darklings
<DeathStar> <Warren> Tch.
<Marcus`> *Theron turns his shots to kill and turns on full auto. Firing bursts of fire at the Darklings.
<DeathStar> 6* Dark Soldiers begin to beam in next.

<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snarls and just rushes for a group of Tsivrixsh Warriors, seeing if hand to hand works.
* Ariel turns to fire a holy blast at one of the dark soldiers.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias then shifts again, dashing in from behind at the Tsiv now
<DeathStar> 6* A holy blast erradicates some Dark soldiers' limbs.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh turns toward Dias, swinging an Xvash at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Which begin to regrow.

<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh grabs Dias' foot and hurls him away.
<Seraphna> "Can anyone say overkill?"
* Seraphna keeps firing.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hits the ground and flips off it, sliding as he lands

<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl recovers, wiping blood from her face.

<Chad`Winters> 6Dias kicks off and dashes back at the tsiv
<Seraphna> "No way..."
<Marcus`> * Drasek stands there, adjust his collar. "Bloody hell. This is quite the party, Revi."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances up.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Crap.
<Seraphna> "Drassey, and here I thought we'd never meet again!"

* Seraphna fires a few shots into some Darklings.
<DeathStar> 6* He swings the xvash at Chii's head, but Cheryl goes low

<Marcus`> <Drasek> You kidding? It's not a party till I get here.

<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh is comboed and defeated
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps to the side of the tsiv and plants his hand on the ground, sweep kicking at the tsiv's feet
<Seraphna> "Well for now help up deal with these jerks who intend on crashing it."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, the ground begins to shake . All fighting seems to momentarily stop.
<Seraphna> "Whoa!"

<Chad`Winters> Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods. "Yes."
<Marcus`> <Drasek> Home sweet home, eh? Now you kids get off my lawn.
* Chad`Winters nods back and and begins running towards the doorway
<DeathStar> 6* Dark Soldiers and civilians alike run for it. Tsivrixsh Soldiers run for it

<Chad`Winters> 6Dias is thrown into a tsiv!
* Cassandra` fires at the backsides of the running Tsiv soldiers.

<Megumi> <Chii> Time to stop being nice, Cheryl.
<Marcus`> *Drasek knocks a civilian aside to get inside.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sneers, and grabs a Tsivrixsh in a berserker rage.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hits the ground and rolls hard.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis leaps in.
<Megumi> 6Chii sheathes her blades after turning them off and reaches back, grabbing out bombs.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leaps in with Ariel.
<Cassandra`> Keep on them! *runs and fires*
* Marcus` comes from behind a tsiv, slashing out in an X.
<Megumi> 6Chii grins, then begins tossing them amongst the hoards of Tsiv and Dark Soldiers.
<Marcus`> *Theron keeps firing as the run, aiming for headshots.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias throws several concussion balls infront of him. Intent on taking groups out

<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the shuttle, and moves for it, getting inside.
* Cassandra` dashes forward to the Progenitor structure.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias growls and stands up. Black begins to creep down his arms and up his face. He eyes Cheryl and dashes towards her.
<Megumi> 6Chii reaches out and grabs Cheryl, turning and tossing her wire toward the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl holds onto Chii.
<DeathStar> 6* Civilians scream as they get mattered.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren powers up the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* The structure shakes and begins to sink into the lake.
* Marcus` slams a blade into the ground as he's closer to one than most of the others.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides beside Cheryl and Chii, seeing they're secured. He begins trying to run towards the shuttle now.
<Marcus`> *Theron gets onto the shuttle.
* Cassandra` finishes firing and falls back to the shuttle
<Cassandra`> Some got inside!
<DeathStar> <Warren> The others will have to deal with them.
* Cassandra` climbs in and straps herself down.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren works on the boosters, trying to escape the dark matter.
* Marcus` growls and shifts, his body contorting as he turns into a wolf, he digs his claws into the ground and rips his blade from it, turning to dash quickly for the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* A Dark Soldier lands on the shuttle, and aims at the engines.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias snaps his hand up, firing a Dark Beam at the solider. 1%
<Megumi> 6A civilian is flung out and Lilith floats back out, eyeing the shuttle. She moves for it, bringing a hand up to her chest, pulling along Chii's wire to tug Cheryl and Chii with her.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC grabs onto the ramp of the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* The soldier is hit, but not stopped. Suddenly, Dias is hit by incredible pain, which causes him to loose all balance, which means dark matter sucks him in
* Marcus` kneels and jumps, firing a 3% beam for the soldier as he reaches out to catch Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Sadly, the dark matter is stronger now, and just sucks Marcus toward it
<DeathStar> 6* But he does hit the soldier off
<Megumi> 6Lilith glances up at the soldier as she lands, narrowing her eyes, but keeps her focus on bringing Chii and Cheryl into the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* But, his body is racked with burning pain, which means he lets go of Dias, and a scar appears on Marcus' face
* Marcus` reverts back to his human form as this happens, gasping out in pain.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias goes flying towards the Dark Matter now
<DeathStar> 6* Chii reaches a stand still - she isn't getting closer.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes the engines. "Here goes nothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grabs Dias.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias' body jerks as he's grabbed
<Megumi> <Chii> This really sucks." 6She grunts as Cheryl adds weight. 1"That pup's helping us, but ...we're at an impasse."
* Marcus` raches out to grasp onto anything as he slides towards the matter, he doesn't seem to be at his best right now, his face shows pain.
<DeathStar> 6* Sadly, Lilith isn't there to save anyone. It's a one way trip. Portal and all that.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks around and grabs onto Marcus as he slides by.
* Marcus` isn't in the right mind to actually do anything at this point, burning pain and all, but hey he is grabbed.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren uses Darien's engine boosts and the Darien boosts forward, escaping the dark matter zone.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren twists the shuttle, eyeing the chaos of the ground, then the Tsivrixsh hybrid. He narrows his eyes. "We have to take that thing out."
<Cassandra`> How?
<Marcus`> <Theron> It is simply a matter of discovering a location to board.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Agreed.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren flies for the woods where Myria is at. "We'll get the others on the shuttle, then prepare for our attack."
<Cassandra`> ...you're the CO...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren lands the shuttle next to Myria's gear. The sounds of chaos in the distance. He lands. Thankfully, Chii managed to save Cheryl, Dias, and Marcus
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus steps off, eyeing the four.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias shakes his head, his face no longer strained. 1"What the hell.."
<Megumi> 6Chii twitches profusely, having retracted her wire, but rubs her arm. 1"Fuck. Fuck. Ow."
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *waves at them from Madara's open cockpit*
* Marcus` lays there, unlikes Dias' scar on the forehead, Marcus' starts at his nose and branches out in jagged paths.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits up.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes them, then suddenly grabs his head in pain. He pops his vicodin rapidly.
<DeathStar> <Warren> You all going to live?
<Megumi> <Chii> Yeah.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias glances at Marcus then over at Cheryl. 1"Thanks."
<Marcus`> *Theron peers at everyone.
* Marcus` sits up, wincing. "...maybe." He says with a grunt.
<Cassandra`> I'm alright...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods, taking that. He looks at Myria. "I think it'll be up to you to punch a hole big enough for us to get the shuttle into the hanger."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias sits on his ass, rubbing his face now.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> I get to do some damage?!
* Chad`Winters is now known as SPoC
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Yes.
* SPoC stands on the ramp, watcing the others
<Megumi> <Chii> Fucking dark shit. Next one I see is kibbles.
<DeathStar> 6* A tendril launches at Chii's back
<SPoC> 6Dias glances over at Marcus. 1"You hear that? Looks like you will get fed."
<Megumi> 6Chii stands and makes a few swipes, ensuring her arm is useful again. Then leaps to the side, blinking.
<Cassandra`> 6<12Myria6> *rubs her hands together and closes up Madara's cockpit*
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl activates her whip, eyeing the Dark Soldier standing there.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Tch.

* Megumi peers about, getting her bearings.
* Xanatos peers around, looking at those that aren't part of the group.
* Ariel casually brushes off her armour.
* Chad`Winters glances around himself, his eyes darting about
<DeathStar> <Voice> You are unable to attack in this room, as the game has not begun. Once outside this room, only one of you will be allowed to make a wish
<Xanatos> *Drasek seems to have found some dirt on his sleeve, he's dusting it off.
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis eeys Drasek
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Lovely. Now we can all have a nice chat. Drink some tea.
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue, looking for everyone that's not part of their group
* Seraphna sighs and pulls her hair back. "This should be fun."
<DeathStar> 6* The Dark Solider and Two Tsivrixsh Warriors eyes the rest of them. The two civilians, a man in his thirties, and a woman in her fourties, look around
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina takes several breaths. Drake rubs the back of his head.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods to Ariel.
<Megumi> 6Lilith remains above the 'floor' eyeing nothing in particular. Without Raquel she's completely detached.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your desires are important. Before you can enter the game, you must state the desire you wish for.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Tell us the desire in your heart.
* Xanatos arches a brow, glancing up.
<Seraphna> "We name the wish first huh?"
<Megumi> Zephyr's return.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien snickers. "Nice."
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish is recognized
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Ah hell.
<Megumi> <Lilith> All those subject of the Weapon experiments given a chance free of strife.
* Chad`Winters eyes Lilith dangerously
<DeathStar> <Voice> ... Your wish is too broad. State one Weapon.
<Megumi> 6Lilith moves slightly, apparently that hitting a nerve.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh says something insulting in his native language
<Megumi> 6Lilith eyes him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Chad, then at Lilith
* Xanatos crosses his arms, then tilts his head to the look at the Tsiv.
* Seraphna returns the insult. Glaring.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I wish the ressurection of Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish is recognized
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Whoa whoa. Zeph is dead? *he widens his eyes*
<Chad`Winters> Yes.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody hell. What the fuck is wrong with you people? I leave for how long!?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at Ariel.
<Ariel> "...I also wish for the resurrection and return of Zephyr."
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish is recognized
<Seraphna> "I wish for Zephyr's ressurection."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems surprised.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish is recognized
<DeathStar> 6* Drake rubs the back of his head
* Seraphna looks away slightly.
<DeathStar> <Drake> I wish for the ressurection of my sister.
<Xanatos> * Drasek just shakes his head and grumbles, he says his wish, asking for them to give him the staff that was lost. The one that will revive the Progenitor race.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis narrows her eyes.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wishes are recognized
* Xanatos leans in beside Erevis. "He doesn't seem very Progenitor-like.."
* Chad`Winters studies Kat and Drake
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixshes wish for eternal life, and the Dark One for the soul planet's reconstruction. their wishes are granted
<DeathStar> 6* The civilians asked for NPCs.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Chad and Lilith, who still have wishes to be done
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns.
* Xanatos steps back and closes his eyes.
<Megumi> 6Lilith rubs her forehead in a show of strange amount of concern. 1"I wish for the contract with the reaper to be nullified."
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish ... will be granted.
* Chad`Winters stares at Kat now, his poker face on
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina waits for him to go.
<Megumi> 6Lilith turns away from everyone, for once, she looks angry.
* Xanatos looks to Darien, who hasn't said his vote yet.
* Seraphna looks at Chad and Kat carefully.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, right. Me. ... ... Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at Xanatos
<DeathStar> <Darien> And you?
<Seraphna> "I think you need to word it as a wish Darien."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Yeah...*he pauses and glances at Erevis* Zephyr. Bring the kid back.
<Chad`Winters> I wish for Aya's mothers to be returned to her.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh! I wish for the ressurection of Zephyr
<DeathStar> <Voice> That wish cannot be done
<Seraphna> "Limit's one Chad."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nice try, though
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue. A slight flicker of disapointment on his face. 1"Zephy'rs resurrection."
* Seraphna nods slowly, it was a nice try and nothing she'd stop.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well. It seems, Ariel, I think we stand a good chance at winning this game.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Pity you've got to get past me, mate. *he gives Darien and sad smile*
* Megumi peers between Darien and Ariel, she looks calm and assured of herself.
<Megumi> I am not worried of you, Drasek.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina speaks. "I wish for the ressurection and return of Shiva Sevintes."
* Chad`Winters continues to study Kat now.
* Ariel nods slowly, actually seeming relieved by this point.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Your wish is recognized.
<Xanatos> *Xanatos arches a brow and glances at Kat.
* Seraphna looks at Kat a little worriedly, this makes her an opponent.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at the others.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Katrina now.
* Megumi smiles slightly at Drasek. 1"I am glad you returned, but you have lost once and will lose again."
* Chad`Winters nods at Kat.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake eyes them all.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes Drasek. It's clear, once they're out of this lobby area, she's taking him on right away.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Oh I never lost to you.
<Megumi> 6Lilith turns back to everyone, eyeing Drake since he's eyeing her.
<DeathStar> 6* Drake stares at Lilith, frowning
* Xanatos gives Kat a smile before turning to look at the Tsiv's.
<Megumi> Right. I couldn't get to you... But don't mistake myself for the me you bullied around.
* Megumi crescents her eyes shut and grins widely.
<DeathStar> 6* A doorway appears, another portal.
<DeathStar> <Voice> Step through - reach the altar of the gift. And your wish shall be granted
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Right. Well, Revi. I'll see you soon. *he winks and dashes through*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina takes a deep breath.
