<Seraphna> Wolf> "Alright, as many of us into Illium disguises as possible, the rest into the hold."
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart moves from the bridge down a hallway
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga follows
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale follows
<Seraphna> * Wolf checks how many suits they have. Ulieah follows Iceheart.
<Jackieness> <Myria> "I definitely couldn't pass for an Illium. Too blue." *hops up and heads to the hold*
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart enters their hanger where supplies and stuff like enemy armor is kept, but kneels instead, opening hidden panels
<AquaKoala> *Mars and James follows
<DeathStar> 6* She exposes the hidden hold and leaps in. Taiga follows
<AquaKoala> *James looks around
<AquaKoala> *Mars hops down
<DeathStar> 6* They have normal Illium armor in the hanger - 8 suits, ranging in various states of condition
<Seraphna> * Wolf gets into one of the good ones, while Ulieah leaps down.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gets into a suit and puts the helmet on
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale gets into one of the good ones as well
<AquaKoala> *James pulls one on
<Seraphna> * Wolf secures her helmet.
<Yuriye> 6Mem and Chii see what remains
<Jackieness> <Myria> *climbs into the hidden compartment*
<DeathStar> 6* Mostly alright ones, and one bad one
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica pulls on an alright one
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart leans back, the hold not tall enough to stand in
<Yuriye> 6Chii grabs one and starts putting it on, Mem lastmost.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga relaxes
<Seraphna> * Ulieah sits back, resting her eyes.
<AquaKoala> *Mars sits
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr closes the hold
<DeathStar> 6* As they stand in the suits, most of the girls would find the suits extremely too big for them
<DeathStar> 6* There's a flashing button, even on James'
<Seraphna> * Wolf is thankfully a big lady. She peers at the others quietly.
<AquaKoala> *James blinks and presses the button
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr taps the botton and Aya's voice speaks and fake energy legs expand to fill the leg space and arm space on the suits on everyone since Illiums are 7 feet and 8 feet tall. James' begins to fill in, too
<Seraphna> * Wolf presses hers to be sure.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale pushes the button
<AquaKoala> *James listens to Aya
<Yuriye> 6Mem eyes Zephyr and follows suit, Chii laughing and grinning.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica pushes the button. And the suit has trouble filling her's due to her small stature
<DeathStar> <Aurica> Dammit---
<DeathStar> 6* The Illium security pounds on the ramp
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Try and look bigger." *she whispers and then stands ready*
<DeathStar> 6* It seems anyone under 6 feet is having trouble
<DeathStar> 6* The energy hands and legs barely reaching
<AquaKoala> *James moves over for the ramp, turning on his translator
<Seraphna> * Wolf switches hers on and walks along with James.
<DeathStar> 6* As the ramp lowers, the 10 Illiums on the other side wear a new type of armor - not the weird black armor the other group encountered - by definitely a higher tech armor
<DeathStar> <Illium Security Group Leader> Which is the captain?
<AquaKoala> James> Greetings.
<DeathStar> 6* They look for the female they spoke to last time
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Aye." *she changes her pitch of voice to be close to Taiga's*
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale followed with them, nodding
<Seraphna> * Wolf steps up.
<DeathStar> 6* The Illium pauses at --- aye.
<Seraphna> * Wolf makes a coughing motion. "I.. am Regadere."
<DeathStar> <Illium Security Group Leader> Follow me.
<DeathStar> 6* The group leader turns and begins to move.
<Seraphna> * Wolf wordessly moves to follow.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica struggles to move along, sometimes waffling
<AquaKoala> *James follows
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale follows
<Yuriye> 6Mem remains on high alert and taking in surroundings.
<DeathStar> 6* 4 remain behind and walk onto the ship
<DeathStar> 6* The other 6 lead them along the hanger, passing the various shuttles toward the entrance they came into the hanger with. Aurica is quiet, silently letting Brony know she's okay with their celestial connection
<AquaKoala> *James follows along silently
<Seraphna> * Wolf walks calmly in full officer mode.
<DeathStar> 6* The group leader lead them through the entrance into a hallway, passing various doorwars toward the end of the hallway, using a handprint to open the elevators, entering. Zephyr and Aurica step in

Session Ident: #AltSession83-2
* Now talking in #AltSession83-2
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart listens to the 4 Illium walk above them
<Yuriye> <Chii> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart talks softly.
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> If they go over our computers---
<Jackieness> <Myria> *stays uncharacteristically quiet*
<Seraphna> * Ulieah peers at Iceheart, then slowly at Myria.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga looks impatient as a 9 year old can
<AquaKoala> *Mars gets out a small computer and works on trying to turn off the other computers remotely
<Jackieness> <Myria> *blinks and then pulls up he rown remote console and starts locking down the computers with a fractal encryption code*
<Yuriye> 6Chii glances at Taiga for some reason.
<Seraphna> * Ulieah sits quietly, trying to keep silent and relaxed.
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Is that going to work?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Uh, guys---?
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga pauses, in thought
<Jackieness> <Myria> *blinks and looks up at Taiga and Ice*
<Yuriye> <Chii> Yes..?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> If they go into our rooms, they'll see our belongings. Our non-Illium belongings.
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Great, they'll my sex toys with you, Chii
<Yuriye> <Chii> Yeah. Let's get the drop on them then?
<Yuriye> 6She's wearing the suit. 1"I can get them offguard for a few moments with this."
<Jackieness> <Myria> *puffs out her cheeks and then closes her console*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> *Thumbs up*
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Myria, can you use your datapad to see their current locations before we exit
<Jackieness> <Myria> *nods and bring she rconsole up, switching to the ship's internal sensors*
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart hands it to Chii so use, then opens the hatch, since none are in the hanger right now
<Yuriye> 6Chii eyes it, then nods.
<Yuriye> <Chii> I don't have my weapons, but I can deal with this..
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I'm right behind.
<Jackieness> <Myria> *tries to track where they are now*
<Yuriye> 6Chii studies their position, then goes to crawl out stealthily.
<DeathStar> 6* The hanger is empty, but there is one in the hallway leading off from it, guarding it. Taiga hops out next, on all fours
<Jackieness> <Myria> *whisper* "Have one. Just outside."
<Yuriye> 6Chii nods and inches for them.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer remains unaware. TAiga foxholes to another part with guards - the rooms - before they find their stuff, taking Myria with her. The soldier there is heading right for Myria's room, opening the door lock with tools
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart holds a blaster as Chii sneaks up on the Illium security officer
<Jackieness> <Myria> *indicates the officer trying to get into her room*
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga sneaks up on that one
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga leaps and forms an energy blast into the Illium's back, slamming them into the door, then as they turn, damaged, does the same into their face, damaging them more
<DeathStar> 6* The Illium lifts their gun to fire, about to give them away
<Jackieness> <Myria> *runs and tries to knock the gun out of the Illium's hands*
<DeathStar> 6* Myria manages to do it with her Erusian strength and his weaked state. Taiga dragoon blasts his eyes and fries his brain finally, one day.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga hands Myria the gun
<Seraphna> * Ulieah forwns as she pulls herself up after Myria and looks around.
<Seraphna> * Or not, missed a line.
<DeathStar> 6* Chii's Illium begins to turn around toward her.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga heads toward the bridge where the other two are trying to hack the computers.
<Yuriye> 6Chii uppercuts it with a flaming fist, flipping to stomp him with a lightning crackling foot, moving to incapacitate anything that isn't already
<Jackieness> <Myria> *moves after Taiga, packing heat now!*
<DeathStar> 6* The surprised Illium at it's comrade attacking him is knocked back into a wall, and slips down
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga stops at the bridge and peers in. ICeheart, meanwhile, takes the other Illium's gun and heads to the bridge, meeting up
<Jackieness> <Myria> *nods toward the hatch on to the bridge when Iceheart shows up*
<DeathStar> 6* The hanger shakes - just a tad.
<AquaKoala> Mars>...That's bad.
<DeathStar> 6* The two guards run off the ship and past them without seeing them and exit the ship
<Yuriye> 6Chii follows Iceheart, stumbling. 1"Woah..!'
<DeathStar> ,Iceheart> Mission accomplished---
<Yuriye> 6Chii pounces on one, taking him down
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Uhhhh... why did they run away?"
<AquaKoala> Mars> Sounded like a dragoon bustah to me.
<Seraphna> * Ulieah joins them and mews. "This bad."
<DeathStar> 6* Chii pounces one, alerting the other. AS the one guard struggles with Chii, the other turns and aims at the group
<DeathStar> <TAiga> Aw crap
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart fires the gun at the second, hitting his armor, pinging it and slowly damaging it
<Seraphna> * Ulieah whispers and Ice Imp casts a freezing attack at the second.
<AquaKoala> *Mars rummages through her bags, getting explosives
<Jackieness> <Myria> *raises her gun and shoots at the secod one too*
<DeathStar> 6* The ice damages parts of the armor, so when Myria fires, she explodes the helmet, exposing the face, and Iceheart fires, blowing out chunks of the face and knocing them back. The first throws Chii off, and begins to riose, when Taiga blasts their back again and again, exhausting energy, but exposing the flesh
<Seraphna> * Ulieah aims and fires crystals at the exposed flesh.
<DeathStar> 6* Ulieah cuts through, tearing through the flesh and making the guard stumble. Taiga grabs Mars and points at the experimental craft
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Explosive Girl, set up your bomb
<Yuriye> 6Chii brings blue energy across her hands and thrusts both palms into the exposed back. 1"HYA!"
<AquaKoala> *Mars nods and gathers it up before moving over to set it up
<DeathStar> 6* The guard jerks and falls over as she gets an organ
<AquaKoala> Mars> This will take a moment
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Sure. Some of us need to guard our ship, but what do the rest of us do?
<Jackieness> <Myria> "What else should we do?"
<DeathStar> 6* taiga us the force field up around rthe hanger
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "Uli can cause ruckus?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We don't know where the power source is coming from. But we should learn what this station is about. Myria---
<DeathStar> 6* She grabs her
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We're going to find where they keep their database
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Meep!"
<DeathStar> 6* TAiga heads for the exit
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "With your technological magic!"
<Jackieness> <Myria> *goes with Taiga*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Ulieah, guard the ship with Iceheart
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart watches them go
<Seraphna> * Ulieah salutes fearless leader Taiga.
<AquaKoala> *Mars hums as she works with her explosives
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "I like her, she has head on shoulders."
<DeathStar> 6* The 9 year heads to the elevator and eyes it, not having the code. She ponders, then foxholes into the elevator
<AquaKoala> Mars> Better than dad, he just knows how to let slip dogs or something
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Keep your datapad out and tell me as we hit each floor which gets a beep for computers, okay.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga hits 4.
<Jackieness> <Myria> *nods and starts scanning for the computer system*
<DeathStar> 6* Nothing as the doors open. Guards spot them and open fire. TAiga eeps and jerks back into the elevator, hitting 5. The doors shut
<DeathStar> <Taiga> A-Anything there?
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Not four, nope!"
<Yuriye> <Chii> Fire
<DeathStar> * TAiga tries 5. As it opens, they see lunch Illiums moving a large lunch along
<DeathStar> <Taiga> --- anything?
<Jackieness> <Myria> "No... I think its just the catering department."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga hits 6.
<DeathStar> 6* As the doors open, Myria's datapad indicates the database storages are on this floor
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Here. They are here."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga nods and steps out, moving down the hallway to a locked door. She frowns and foxholes through with her group into the server room, hiding in the corner from guards and other Illium for Myria to hook in
<Jackieness> <Myria> *interfaces with the Illium system*
<DeathStar> 6* Myria comes across a firewall
<DeathStar> 6* PREPARE YOURSELF WHEN READY
<Jackieness> ((ready))
<DeathStar> 6* Up Down Left Right Up Down Right Left Up Down Right Left
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4

<Jackieness> durldulrdulr
<DeathStar> 1
<DeathStar> -0-
<DeathStar> 6* Myria acccesses the system and can download
<Jackieness> <Myria> *starts downloading the data from the Illium system*
<AquaKoala> *Mars sighs in relief as sje finishes the bomb
<DeathStar> 6* Myria soon gets about 30% of the filles when Aurica sends a txt message to Myria's datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* Mars gets a datapad message too from Aurica
<Jackieness> <Myria> *checks her texts*
<DeathStar> "5 MINUTES SHIP WILL BE DESTROYED GET READY TO GO!"
<AquaKoala> Mars> Uhhh kay
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart looks overt
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Something up, Mars?
<Jackieness> <Myria> *twitches and texts back* "W8 dloading rght nw"
<AquaKoala> *Mars shows her
<Yuriye> <Chii> Whee, wonton destruction
<Jackieness> <Myria> *puffs out her cheeks then shows Taiga the message*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> ... we have no choice. Their fault for being too quick
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga unplugs Myria and takes her back to the elevator, foxholing in
<DeathStar> <Taiga> *she hits 3* I just hope we got anything good for you guys
<Jackieness> <Myria> "...only 30%..."
<Seraphna> * Ulieah helps Iceheart get ready.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga looks annoyed too, outlines of a tail and ears
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart begins to power up their ship as fast as she can
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> The hanger field is still up, I just hope we can escape fast enough
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga arrives in the hanger and runs with Myria up to the others
<Jackieness> <Myria> *goes into the ship* "You moved too fast! I only got 30%!"
<AquaKoala> *Mars sits
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart eyes the timer she set up - 3 minutes. Suddenly the elevators reopen and troopers begin to flood into the aircraft that Mars put explosives in
<AquaKoala> *Mars waits
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "...Should we just wait?"
<AquaKoala> *Fiddling with the detonator
<AquaKoala> Mars> Too close to us.
<DeathStar> 6* The hanger field goes down and the strange ships begin to exit
<DeathStar> 6* But a frew begin to fire at them, too
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart winces at the 3 remaining in the hanger, hammering away
<Seraphna> * Ulieah mewls. "Sh-Shields?"
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Dropping. Get on weapons - nOW!
<AquaKoala> *Mars activates her explosives
<DeathStar> 6* The three ships blow up
<Seraphna> * Ulieah hops on the weapons and aims.
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "We has... friends coming and... lunch ladies."
<Jackieness> <Myria> "The catering department!"
<Seraphna> ULieah> "And mad evil stereotype."
<Yuriye> 6Chii runs to the ramp and rapidly forms seals, hurtling fire, lightning and water at the mech
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "Time to go!"
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart shoves forward
Session Close: Wed Jul 17 21:28:40 2013

<kalonZombie> 6*Hale steps in as well
<Seraphna> * Wolf steps in with them.
<DeathStar> 6* There's about 8 buttons, and the officer hits button 5. The doors close once they're all on
<AquaKoala> *James waits inside patiently
<DeathStar> 6* The doors open and they are in a darker part of the ship, the 6 guards leading them along a hallway into a room with seats. <Security Leader> Sit here
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slowly sits in a seat, as does Aurica
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale sits
<Seraphna> * Wolf takes a seat.
<Yuriye> 6Mem memorizes which buttons were pressed, then moves to sit by Zephyr
<AquaKoala> *James sits
<DeathStar> 6* The guards move and step out of the room, the doors shutting. The room has no windows and no sign of cameras, a nd the walls are a grayish color
<AquaKoala> *James waits
<Seraphna> * Wolf waits patiently.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica looks about, peering at something that's not there
<DeathStar> 6* Finally, the doors open and tall, beautiful Illium with silver hair walks in, male, and the doors close. They wear officer's clothing and move to the table and sit. They wave at Wolf to remove the helmet
<Yuriye> <Mem> Tch... jig's up.." 6She utters silently.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr waits to see what Wolf does
<Seraphna> * Wolf gets up and moves to the table, acting as though she'd rather not, perhaps as though she'd rather breathe her own air.
<Seraphna> "I am fine. Thank you."
<DeathStar> 6* The Illium studies, and taps a button on their wrist. The sound of the door being locked down is heard.
<Seraphna> * Wolf makes no movement of surprise, merely crossing her arms.
<DeathStar> 6* The Illium then crushes the devices on their wrist
<DeathStar> <Illium Officer> It seems we have much to discuss - spies.
<Yuriye> (Speaking Basic?)
<DeathStar> (He's still being translated from Illium)
<Seraphna> * Wolf makes an annoyed sound.
<Yuriye> 6Mem takes her helmet off and shakes her head, loosening her hair, eyes irises narrowed slightly like a predator, but not focusing on any single one of them because of her senses.
<Yuriye> <Mem> What do you want to discuss?
<DeathStar> 6* The beautiful officer leans forward a little on his elbows. "How did you discover this base, and your purpose here."
<AquaKoala> James> Traitors actually.
<AquaKoala> James> We came to sell information.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer peers at the helmeted James, his expression stoic still
<DeathStar> <OFficer> You take me for a fool
<Seraphna> Wolf> "We found it quite by accident."
<Yuriye> <Mem> You have something of ours.
<AquaKoala> *James takes off his helmet "I take as someone who want to know the resistance plans."
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Welp.
<Yuriye> 6Mem puts a hand on her hip, gazing at James.
<AquaKoala> James> Maybe the location of the resistance base?
<DeathStar> 6* The officer leans back, listening. "So you found this base by accident, but came to sell information."
<AquaKoala> James> We were heading for luna.
<DeathStar> <Officer> And knowing the codes you did?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is quiet, watching them. Aurica pet air
<AquaKoala> James> We are members of the resistance, you think we don't have codes?
<DeathStar> 6* The officer brushes a bang back with a gesture. "Alright, where is the location of the base?"
<Seraphna> * Wolf remains silent since it's James' bluff, not interrupting him.
<AquaKoala> James> Do you take us for idiots?
<AquaKoala> James> What's to stop you from shooting us like dogs after we tell you?
<DeathStar> <Officer> Do you take me for one? *He notes simply, almost boredly* What's to stop me from shooting you one by one until you tell me what I want to know, and then extracting the information from the remaining person?
<AquaKoala> James> No, we need leverage on our behalf to stop that.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer peers at James. "Tell me the location, and then we will deal."
<Seraphna> Wolf> "We have other info. Let's throw them a sign of good faith."
<AquaKoala> James> I'll tell you their plans.
<DeathStar> 6* The officer stands up, dusting his suit
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Give him what he wants."
<AquaKoala> James> If you kill one of us we'll all die.
<AquaKoala> James> We have a psionic link between us that joins our lives.
<Seraphna> * Wolf grits her teeth and peers at James.
<DeathStar> <Officer> Is that so? I --- wonder.
<DeathStar> 6* He points at Zephyr.
<AquaKoala> James> Wonder enough to risk losing the information?
<DeathStar> <Officer> That one. Kill her.
<Seraphna> Wolf> "James. Tell him NOW."
<Yuriye> <Mem> You even look at that one funny
<DeathStar> 6* He speaks to thin air
<AquaKoala> James> Finem
<Yuriye> 6Mem narrows her eyes slightly. 1"I will kill you all with my bare hands."
<AquaKoala> James> Bring a me a star map.
<Yuriye> <Mem> Then suffocate your crew into space.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pauses, wondering how he knew she was female in the suit
<DeathStar> 6* The officer peers at Mem, almost a smirk there, then flickers like a hologram as a star map appears on the table
<Seraphna> Wolf> *peers, realizing they were made before they ever came into the room*
<DeathStar> 6* The officer reappears
<DeathStar> <Officer> Where
<AquaKoala> *James rises and pans and scans about it before pointing at a location that he knows was suspected by the Illium for the location but far enough away from Illium patrols to take time for them to verify it.
<DeathStar> <Officer> Very well. You all will remain in here. If you are right, then we will pay you
<DeathStar> 6* The officer vanishes, as well as the star map
<AquaKoala> *James sits
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica eyes the floor for the crushed device, seeing no debris
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale just facepalms
<Seraphna> * Wolf peers at James again. Then sits back, looking towards Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr keeps her helmet on, pondering
<AquaKoala> *James leans back, lighting a cigarette
<Seraphna> Wolf> "He was a hologram. Shiney tech."
<DeathStar> 6* She knocks the cigarreate out of James' hand
<Yuriye> <Mem> Zephyr-- you stay close to me.
<DeathStar> 6* Then shoves his helmet back on James' head
<DeathStar> 6* Then touches their helmets together
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Huh?
<DeathStar> 6* She also lets Mem in what she says with the bond
<AquaKoala> *James blinks
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> <At this point, they think we're mercenary still by their last line. They'll have eyes on us in this room, but there's a small, small chance it might not be as high as if we were full blown enemies. You plan to just sit here until they verify that place, or take advantage of them thinking we're sell outs?>
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shoves James away, making it seem like she's pissed he almost got her killed
<AquaKoala> *James lights a second cigarette, meaning the second plan she stated
<Yuriye> 6Mem sneers, but then grabs Zephyr by the suit and yanks her over by her.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lets Mem. She figures comms will be heard, but helmet to helmet can't be
<DeathStar> 6* Hence her making James put his back on and touching them
<AquaKoala> *James just opens the front of it so he can smoke now
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica keeps petting the air, peering at them all
<DeathStar> 68 She studies the room, with no sign of cameras, and only the long table, and one door exit. No vents, nothing
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale just shakes his head, looking around
<DeathStar> 6* The only light source is a single long light along the ceiling that is a dull light
<Seraphna> * Wolf rises and walks over to James, leaning in close and grabbing at his suit like she's giving him her own business, pushing his wrist down. Helmet to his. <They have sensors of some sort monitoring us. They knew Zephyr was female without ever seeing her.>
<AquaKoala> Jame> <Yeah, I noticed
<AquaKoala> James> <I'm thinking right now, I hate stealthy shit >
<Seraphna> Wolf> *grabs him up a bit, making a lazy annoyed motion* <We'll need to think quick, so whatever you wanna pull out of your hat, do it fast. They'll know what we're about when we do it, but maybe not before.> *she pushes him back and moves to sit again, putting a leg up*
<AquaKoala> *James leans back in his chair
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale sighs, reaching to get a smoke of his own
<DeathStar> 6* So far, no one comes and bothers them. Seems this is meant to be their cell. Space investigation is hours after all
<Seraphna> Wolf> Well this is boring. Anyone bring entertainment?
<DeathStar> <Aurica> I'm talking to my doggy.
<AquaKoala> James> Oiiii, Illium
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers at James, her deadpanned expression hidden
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You really think that's going to work?
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Oh? What's fido got to say?"
<AquaKoala> James> OIIIIII I WANT SOME WATER
<Yuriye> <Mem> Oi, Z. Is that chick crazier than me or something?
<DeathStar> <Aurica> Brony says we need training
<Yuriye> 6She gestures at Aurica
<kalonZombie> <Hale> This is gonna be a looooong couple of hours.
<Seraphna> * Wolf grunts.
<AquaKoala> *James grumbles and knocks on what emits the hologram "OIIIIII"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> No. Aurica really has a celestial dog.
<DeathStar> 6* As James thumps on the ceiling area, sparks emit around the room from the device
<Seraphna> Wolf> "That looks uncomforterable."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr yelps at the sparks. The door opens and 5 security officers with big guns walk in and aim at James
<DeathStar> <Security Leader> Knock it off.
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Whoa, is that a gun or are you just happy to see me?"
<DeathStar> 6* They wave James off the table
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr eyes the open door way, then the guards
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Yes. 6*He says to Wolf
<AquaKoala> James> I demand a glass of water
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica sends the invisible Brony outside
<DeathStar> <Security Leader> You can wait until supper. Off the table.
<Seraphna> * Wolf peers for a moment, trying to guage the chances they have of trying to take the guards. "He's always like this if he hasn't been properly boozed."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr finally rolls her eyes, forms her giant guns and aims.  "DRAGOON BUSTAH!"
<AquaKoala> James> I came here of my own volition, the least you can do is have some courtesy for us."
<DeathStar> 6* She unleashes a giant beam at the 5 guards
<AquaKoala> *James grabs his shotgun and fires at them
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale snaps his gun up and fires at them as well, since Zephyr is doing so
<Yuriye> 6Mem begins hurtling blades, knives and kunai rapidly through the open doorward as she moves in
<DeathStar> 6* AFter all the attacks, nothing remains by smoke. Alarms go off.
<DeathStar> <Aurica> Oh my. And I sent Brony out to get the door codes for later.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Let's move, girls.
<Seraphna> * Wolf pulls up her gun. "...We really need to make up a hand talk or something."
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Cuz that was a smart idea."
<AquaKoala> *James rises "I know, I just wanted a glass of water, my throat is very dry."
<kalonZombie> <Hale> James. Just take the credit.
<Seraphna> * Wolf moves over for the door and peers about carefully.
<AquaKoala> *James rises and peeks outside, grabbing a gun
<Yuriye> <Mem> I know the door code.
<DeathStar> 6* The only weapons are the group's own
<AquaKoala> (The guards)
<DeathStar> (I said nothing was left. Read up)
<AquaKoala> (Derp)
<AquaKoala> *James just peeks out
<DeathStar> 6* As they step outside, they see a door is open across the hallway and inside it, a few Illium females are staring at them, eyes widen in horrow, pale hair done up - making what appears to be a fabulous supper, complete with glasses of nice looking drinks. The label says for the meal says: Possible Allies in Illium. And it looks almost done, too.
<AquaKoala> *James smiles and waves "Hello"
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Ladies.
<DeathStar> 6* The hallway flashes with the alarm and a guard door is opening further down when it shuts automatically. Aurica rewards Broney. The cooks, meanwhile, lock their door
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> There goes that.
<AquaKoala> James> So rude.
<Yuriye> <Mem> Smelled delicious
<Seraphna> Wolf> "So... we should probably get the hell out of here."
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Couldn't agree more.
<AquaKoala> *James nods and looks for an exit
<DeathStar> 6* The only exit is the elevator doors up ahead, which Mem has the code for
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr and Aurica hurry down to it
<Seraphna> * Wolf heads after them.
<AquaKoala> *James moves for it
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves after Wolf
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr uses the bond to input Mem's knowledge of the code and gets on
<AquaKoala> *James climbs in
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica eyes the 8 buttons
<DeathStar> <Aurica> So where do we goi?
<Yuriye> 6Mem gets on beside Zephyr, whom she can tell is still bristled on alert around her for some reason
<AquaKoala> James> Hmmm
<AquaKoala> James> Engineering
<Seraphna> * Wolf tries to remember if they were able to tell floors passing by. "We are on 5."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> We're on Floor 5.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> The hanger I think was floor 3.
<AquaKoala> James> We need to make sure they won't blow us to hell once we leave.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So engineering would be ... 1?
<AquaKoala> James> Lets try that.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr taps iot
<kalonZombie> <Hale> One sounds good, yeah.
<Seraphna> Wolf> Well, it's that or command."
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Either way we can cause a lot of problems...?"
<AquaKoala> *James reloads his shotgun
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale reloads his rifle
<DeathStar> 6* The elevator doors open and they find themselves in a large open area, with massive drivers humming, and catwalks that go all over, and rotating engines spinning in force fields that shouldn't theortically exist, black mass in the center of them like black holes, but not
<kalonZombie> <Hale> The fuck..?
<DeathStar> 6* The cat walks go between the drivers/engines and force fields to various work stations and the falls --- well, lets ust say if you avoid being vaped by the fields, you have a long drop
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Reminds me of Meg's tech, but different
<Seraphna> Wolf> "They're messing with some fucked up shit."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Might be why their ships are so hard to take down
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Black hole technology?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yeah. If those fields are their shield...
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Can you imagine why we have a time penetrating
<Seraphna> Wolf> "We... might actually have an idea of how to overcome it then."
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Is there any way we can bring even just a part of this back?
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Just knowing what it is."
<DeathStar> <Aurica> No. *she says to Hale*
<Seraphna> Wolf> "I wouldn't dare... it's not... a real Black Hole anyway, something else."
<DeathStar> <Aurica> At least, not here.
<DeathStar> <Aurica> You would have to find an engine that's being built, not one in operation
<Seraphna> Wolf> "So what do we do here?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Destroy the work stations.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But NOT one at a time or we'll die
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Timed explosives
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Hehehehehehehehe."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Once a few work stations go out, the control over those fields will collapse, and we do not want to be here
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Well I've got charges, let's get the right work stations then skeedaddle."
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods, moving to help Wolf, since he knows helping her will get him the good lovin' later
<kalonZombie> 6*He's even allowed to be on top!
<AquaKoala> *James looks about "Yeah, I know some of these things
<DeathStar> 6* As they move along the catwalks, they would feel skin tingling
<DeathStar> 6* And as they reach the first work station, the engineer there turns, and blinks
<DeathStar> 6* He dramatically grabs a wrench to do battle
<DeathStar> <Aurica> ....
<AquaKoala> James> Don't mind us, were with OSHA
<Seraphna> * Wolf levels her gun. "Really? Do you REALLY want to do this? Can we save time and you just kluck yourself over the head?"
<AquaKoala> James> Have you been approached for union memebership yet?
<DeathStar> <Engineer Illium> .... *He eyes the explosives in Wolf's hand, the gleam in Mem's eyes, the gun*
<DeathStar> 6* Then charges!
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Idiot.
<Seraphna> * Wolf shifts her weight and flips her gun in her hand, moving to weave around his charge and hit him in the back of the head hard with the butt.
<DeathStar> 6* The engineer goes down and collapses. "Can you--- find --- data -- on the battlefield..."
<DeathStar> 6* He passes out
<Seraphna> * Wolf sighs and moves to the console, working to rig it.
<AquaKoala> *James gets out his cricket bat with nails in it, waiting
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves along the catwalk to station 2
<Seraphna> * Wolf heads after her when she's done.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale follows
<AquaKoala> *James moves with them
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica moves along - at the second station there is two engineers, debating engineering techno babble, not noticing them yet.
<DeathStar> 6* They sparkle from the light of the fields
<Seraphna> * Wolf peers them over, thinking a moment.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica deadpans more as they debate the physics of two blackholes meeting
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *whisper* Wolf...the timer on the first station...
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... we need to get moving...
<kalonZombie> <Hale> *Whisper* Just run for it?
<Yuriye> 6Mem makes a face. 1"... Zephyr..
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs their heads and slams it together
<Seraphna> * Wolf nods and positions herself, motioning someone to take the other engineer as she readies her weapon.
<DeathStar> 6* She blinks as it doesn't knock them out
<DeathStar> 6* They moan in pain
<DeathStar> 6* She throws them out the station window int othe abyss
<Seraphna> * Wolf moves up behind one and slams him in the back of the head. "Down boy."
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale does the same with the other
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Naptime
<Seraphna> * Wolf pouts and sets her explosives up.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shrugs at Hale and Wolf
<DeathStar> 6* Then as Wolf sets it up and moves to the catwalk to thel ast station, keeping note of their less than 10 minute time limit, she jerks as suddenly there's a boom from above, knocking her off the catwalk so she has to grab it
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale rushes over to help pull her up
<Seraphna> * Wolf grabs at the catwalks and reaches to grab her too.
<DeathStar> 6* Flying down in a mechish suit is the beautiful officer, complete with turbo guns on it, firing along the catwalk and sheering it in half, so Zephyr screams and falls down more
<DeathStar> 6* IT even knocks Wolf and Hale down so they all cling with her
<DeathStar> <Aurica> !
<Seraphna> * Wolf grips onto their half and holds onto Zephyr. "Shit, you guys, give us time to get up!"
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Fuckshitcuntballsshitfuck
<DeathStar> 6* The Officer flies along. "I will not allow you to make a laughing stock of I, Jochasunde!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to climb up with Wolf's help
<Seraphna> Wolf> "With a name like that we had to try?" *she works her way up with Zephyr, letting her man do his own pulling*
<Yuriye> <Mem> You son of a bitch..." 6She growls.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale keeps a tight grip as well, trying to climb up
<Yuriye> <Mem> I told you what'd happen if you harmed her!!
<DeathStar> 6* Joch fires at the catwalk part they're climbing, knocking parts off, weakening it. If the others don't help---
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Will you people fucking do something damnit!" *she growls and works harder*
<Yuriye> 6Mem forms a curved sword-like blade and hurtles it up at him.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica gathers energy and fires it as well
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr aims with one hand and fires
<Yuriye> <Mem> Me, you bastard!
<AquaKoala> *James fires at a propulsion unit in the suit
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale focuses on climbing, grunting and cursing
<DeathStar> 6* Joch jerks and is forced to dodge, one shot clipping the mech suit and slightly damaging it. Giving Hale and the others time to reach the top as he spins and goes around the field, protected for now
<Seraphna> * Wolf helps Zephyr up fully before herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs in relief once on top, eyeing the 7 minute timer they have - and the gap they have to jump now to reach station 3.
<AquaKoala> *James hops up, helping others up
<Seraphna> Wolf> "So ideas on crossin' this thing?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Running jump
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica dashes while Joch is behind the field
<DeathStar> 6* Then flip jumps onto the other side
<DeathStar> 6* John then comes back around, waiting for them to begin jumping
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica turns to hold out her hand, not seeing him
<Yuriye> 6Mem takes this short interim to climb and catch up
<Yuriye> <Mem> Can anyone not make the jump?
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale fires at Joch, running towards the gap to jump it
<Seraphna> * Wolf nods and frowns, then aims her gun at the cockpit area and fires a few rounds while others jump.
<AquaKoala> *James fires at Joch
<DeathStar> 6* Joch jerks and dodges attacks, cursing them
<DeathStar> 6* He fires a missile
<DeathStar> 6* Then goes back behind the field
<DeathStar> 6* Hale lands
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale shoots for the missile
<AquaKoala> *James shoots at Joch
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr runs for it and jumps, Aurica grabbing her and pulling her on over to the other side
<Seraphna> * Wolf grunts and makes a running jump.
<DeathStar> 6* Joch remains behind the field for now
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica catches Wolf and points for the station
<DeathStar> <Aurica> Go!
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods, running for it
<Seraphna> * Wolf nod and runs for it, gun out still.
<AquaKoala> *James makes a running leap for the other sid
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs James as he jumps and runs for the station as Joch flies back out, firing at them as they run for it. The missile, naturally, was blown up
<DeathStar> 6* Joch strafes them
<AquaKoala> *James fires at him as they run
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr dual wields, firing, making him weave, and JAmes' shots begin to weaken his armor
<Yuriye> 6Mem goes to make the jump since no one needed help from her
<Seraphna> * Wolf with her head start, turns and fires a blast for Joch as she runs and then moves to the station itself. She starts working on the rigging.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale fires at him some more as he runs
<DeathStar> 6* Joch turns and circles away from their range. Zephyr slides into the station, it providing some cover
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> our shots aren't doing enough. But I have an idea
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica peers out from the station once in
<AquaKoala> *James dives into cover
<Seraphna> Wolf> "What's up?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> We got 5 mins to get back to the hanger and go - that's no good.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> We're not going to win in a straight up fight
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> That field around the mass drivers will vape him
<Yuriye> <Mem> If I had Haruka...
<Seraphna> Wolf> "So we need to knock him into it?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Either 1) We fire at him enough to knock him into it, or weave him into it.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Fire at the field to disrupt it and unleash the black hole mass and suck him in, and everything else, while we run for the exit
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Your call, James
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Distracting shots, force him to dodge back into it while keeping him too busy to notice."
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica types rapidly to the others
<AquaKoala> James> Number One
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods and moves to the emergency exit from the station and kicks the door, revealing another catwalk that leads back to the exit, and leaps out, JOchs there to fire at them.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica puts up her datapad and moves to go as well
<Seraphna> * Wolf moves after them, firing a few shots at one side of the mech.
<DeathStar> 6* Joch fires at the catwalk, trying to blow this one up, too
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale movs after them
<kalonZombie> 6*Firing at Joch
<DeathStar> <Joch> You're not getting away!
<DeathStar> 6* He begins to weave around the shots, getting a little closer to the field, but still a distance
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr combines her guns and dragoon bustahs at him, forcing him to jerk back to avoid, putting him a bit closer
<AquaKoala> *James fires at him on the opposite side of the field
<Seraphna> * Wolf keeps it up, then blinks, she pulls out a sticky explosive and fixes the timer, she takes another shot then times her throw at the mech itself. It's not powerful, but it should provide a nice bump.
<DeathStar> 6* He then jerks away from James' shots, getting closer. Joch eyes it, not seeing the explosive that blows up and puts him right on the cusp of the field.
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Give it all you got!"
<Yuriye> 6Mem grabs part of the catwalk he shot up/broke and hurtles it at Joch
<Seraphna> * Wolf fires several shots aimed at dead center for best impact.
<AquaKoala> *James fires and exploive shot at him
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale keeps firing at Joch
<DeathStar> 6* Their shots hit Joch and he hits the field, a bright flash.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> NO TIME TO STICK AROUND, 4 MINUTES, TGO GO GO GO
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr runs right into the elevator and enters.
<Seraphna> * Wolf nods and starts running for it, into the elevator.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica runs in too and hits 4, hand on the doors to hold them open
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale runs for it
<AquaKoala> *James dives in
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Floor 3! Threeeeeee."
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica hits Floor 3.
<DeathStar> 6* They begin to go up
<AquaKoala> *James waits quietly
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale whews
<DeathStar> 6* The elevator doors open and in front of them they can see all the strange ships being powered uip
<Yuriye> 6Mem hurries at her pace, keeping an eye out
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Forget those, let's move it."
<AquaKoala> *James runs for their ship
<DeathStar> 6* Many fly out, but 3 remain, firing at the ship, the blast keeping them from entering
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> 2 minutes.
<Seraphna> * Wolf hrms and aims at one of the ships engines. "We need to draw fire then run for it."
<DeathStar> 6* The three ships blow up, the shockwaves knocking the group down
<DeathStar> 6* The hanger soon becomes a blaze of fire and debris
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale grunts, getting up and looking for Wolf
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Ugh... anyone get the number of that donkey cart?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pushes herself up, groaning, and limps for the ramp --- when the elevators ding again and ----
<Yuriye> 6Mem growls, shielding Zephyr
<AquaKoala> *James reels and hops up, running for the ship "GOGOGOGO"
<Yuriye> 6She picks her up and runs for it
<Seraphna> * Wolf pulls herself up, "L-Let's move..." *she moves after Zephyr, checking if anyone needs help*
<DeathStar> 6* The lunch staff comes running out with the food, rushing forward
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica blinks
<Seraphna> Wolf> "...Let them come."
<DeathStar> 6* And right behind them, a damaged Jochs, his mech sparking, helmet explosed, faced scarred
<AquaKoala> James> ALL ABOARD LAST SHIP TO NOT DEATH
<DeathStar> 6* He zooms past the lunch staff, right at the grouip
<AquaKoala> *James fires at his exposed helmet
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> HOw did he?!
<Seraphna> * Wolf grunts and tosses a stun grenade at his face and runs for it still.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale rushes after the group, firing at Joch's helmet
<DeathStar> 6* The stun grenade damages Jochs, while James shoots him, blood splurting, and Hale's shots knock the mech back again and again. The lunch staff rush up the ramp, as does Zephyr and Aurica, Zephyr leaninhg on Mem
<AquaKoala> *James rushes the lunch ladies aboard
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> 30 seconds.
<Seraphna> * Wolf hops on.
<AquaKoala> *James scrambles up
<DeathStar> 6* The mech aims as lightning and water hits it, sparking, and locks on with a bomb
<Yuriye> <Chii> Fuck you.
<Yuriye> 6Chii snaps, setting off a katon fire.
<AquaKoala> James> YOUR BUDGET JUST HOT CUT
<Seraphna> * Wolf aims out the back and fires at it's weapons, then hops back.
<AquaKoala> *James fires at his face with an explosive shell
<DeathStar> 6* The bomb fires as Chii damages it, Jochs screaming as the ship flies out, the bomb chasing it. A moment later, the station explodes, the shock wave shooting out
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart closes the ramp as JAmes and Chii begin to get sucked out
<DeathStar> 6* Along with the lunch ladies
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Get James and Chii!
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> ... wait, I have a lock on. Something is following us. *she eyes the bomb*
<Seraphna> * Wolf grabs a lunch lady.
<DeathStar> 6* The ramp closes with them all in
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga eyes the bomb on them and Iceheart turns back to the explosion
<Yuriye> <Chii> Gyahh!
<Seraphna> * Ulieah begins whispering, a creature of lightning forming outside the ship. "Can get it... think... but will blow."
<DeathStar> 6* Zooming along, she flies through the fire and debris, the shields overheating and alarms going off - and ironically, the blasted off dead body of Jochs from James and Chii is hit by the bomb, the explosion knocking the ship forward
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Brace.
<Seraphna> * Ulieah and Wolf brace.
<DeathStar> 6* Aurica grabs a seat, screaming, and Iceheart jerks in her seat side to side. Taiga flies
<AquaKoala> *James holds on tightly
<DeathStar> 6* Hot soup flies in the hanger as the ship spins and finally comes to a stop.
<AquaKoala> *Mars grabs Taiga, wearing a seatbelt
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga pants in Mar's arm
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Note to self... finish building intertial compensator." *flops over*
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart checks damage
<AquaKoala> James> Uhhh, hello ladies.
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> We have bad scorch marks...
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale pants, then starts to laugh
<DeathStar> 6* The lunch ladies give James an Illium sub
<kalonZombie> <Hale> We're alive!
<Yuriye> 6Chii pants on the floor of the hangar.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga lets out a breath and has Myria upload the data she has to the computer so Aya - Oracle - can get it later
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "What we do now?"
<Yuriye> 6Mem puts Zephyr down and studies her thoroughly for injury and damage
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Find out if the others are off Deimos yet.
<AquaKoala> *James eats it "We're just that good."
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> And find out what that station was for. <Taiga> Me and Myria MIGHT have that information if it was on the information we downloaded.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is quiet, a little bruised, but okay. But she looks worried all the same
<DeathStar> 6* Rubbihng her stomach paranoidly
<Jackieness> <Myria> "But if someone had just waited ten more minutes... we would have had everything."
<AquaKoala> *James checks in on the other group
<Seraphna> Wolf> "Hey, I wasn't told."
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart flies toward Deimos, unaware of the other ship, and not wanting to send out transmissions yet that might be intercepted.
<Yuriye> <Mem> Did your autorepair kick in already? You were limping
<DeathStar> 6* As Myria sifts through, information begins to pop up on the reason for the station
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yes.
<Seraphna> * Ulieah thinks. "Mem, can you feek Haruki?"
<Yuriye> <Mem> Good question
<DeathStar> 6* Strangely, during all this, Mem has been cut off from Haruki
<AquaKoala> *James looks it over
<Yuriye> <Mem> It seems my new pet's been hijacked... again
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "We need some way of telling where they is... and how they are?"
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Got soemthing."
<DeathStar> 6* As Mem says that, she begins to get the urge to add people to her being. Whatever that means
<Yuriye> <Mem> ... eh..
<Yuriye> 6Mem blinks, tilting her head at Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* The station was placed there to provide data on the colony on the moon, to scan for something called - Centerpoint. It was newly built and beginning operations to begin reality incrusions past normal reality incrusions into a tri-reality state.
<AquaKoala> *James makes a face
<DeathStar> 6* A sister station was being built near Earth to provide additional details on where Centerpoint was located.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr waves at Mem
<Yuriye> <Mem> Huh?
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, Mem would feel Haruki die on her and the bond link cut off.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> That's bad. That's really bad.
<Jackieness> <Myria> "They are looking for Centerpoint."
<Yuriye> <Mem> ..!? Fuck... what? No way
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "We should hide somewhere by Deimos and wait for sign-- huh?"
<kalonZombie> <Hale> What's wrong, Mem?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *she hugs Mem* What's up?
<Yuriye> <Mem> Haruki's... gone
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr jerks and hangs her head.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm...sorry...... 6* Then the bond weakly comes back
<Yuriye> <Mem> ... and now not
<DeathStar> 6* Though Haruki is clearly unconscious.
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "So only some dead?"
<Yuriye> <Mem> She was briefly dead
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga whacks
<Yuriye> <Mem> Something's up
<DeathStar> -TIME HOP-
<Seraphna> * Ulieah squeaks.
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit of searching, Iceheart hits the alarm
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> We have a situation!!!!
<kalonZombie> <hale> When DON'T we?
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga, on the bridge, peers out the bridge window
<Seraphna> * Ulieah mews and looks around. "Where!?"
<DeathStar> 6* A black Illium stealth vessel, like on the station, but large, is headed right for them, at the other group's rendevous point
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> We've been intercepted!
<DeathStar> <Aurica> Oh my.
<DeathStar> 6* Iceheart flips weapons station's on
<Seraphna> ULieah> "But how they know...? That one not the same as the others."
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Myria, get your communication program on
<AquaKoala> James> Nah.
<AquaKoala> James> We're okay.
<Jackieness> <Myria> *starts up her communications program*
<Seraphna> Ulieah> "Mew?"
<AquaKoala> *James sits and waits for comms
<Yuriye> <Mem> ...
<DeathStar> 6* The other ship doesn't respond, heading right for them instead
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Oh yes, we're definitely not in trouble...
<kalonZombie> <Hale> James, you're an idiot.
<DeathStar> 6* It's about to be in range to realize they're not an Illium ship
<DeathStar> <Iceheart> Do we fire - or not!?
<AquaKoala> James> Nope.
<Seraphna> ULieah> "Not answering is also strange... can we detect if they have weapons ready?"
<DeathStar> 6* The other ship enters their range and targets them, alarms going off
<DeathStar> -TBC-
