<kalonZombie> Date: 10-608.9.4 / 10-605.2.17 / February 17th, 2241
<kalonZombie> As the group on Roboticon gets their upgrades, rests up, and catches up with one another, something looms over them. X ask the group to meet him in command and they file out to follow him.
<kalonZombie> In Prime on the PAX, Erevis notices a series of issues coming up in the Senate that bother her. She consults with Ama, and they are joined by Sammael. Together they notice a pattern of world trying to join the Empire which seem to form a straight path to the location in space where the Light Engine Gate is in Alternate. Suspecting a plot by the Illium in their own government, they decide
<kalonZombie> that they must root out the conspiracy and find out what's really going on. Their thoughts are backed up with Darien Starr shows up 'casually' on the PAX.
<kalonZombie> Back on Roboticon, X shows them the Illium ships closing in. The group is forced to rush out and get onto their repaired ships, the upgraded team members being sent aboard. Racing against time as Hyperspace pelts down on Roboticon, the group flies off with their ships attached. When they're about to leave, X asks them to fly through the core which gives them a speed boost. However, Curali
<kalonZombie> notices their weight is too much for the Light Engine to handle and everyone boards the Avenger, Cheryl staying behind on the Incterceptor to use Airym's idea of a wake-pull to follow though on. Katrina and Alt. Kasha stay aboard as well. The team punches through on the Light Engine's wake and come out in Prime near Earth's Sun. Detaching the Light Engine and sending it into the star, the
<kalonZombie> Avenger is able to pull away, following a trail of wreckage where the Interceptor should have been.
<kalonZombie> Darien, interrogatted by boobies and gods, lets them know what Warren suspects and Erevis decides to place stealth agents around the area in question. She decides to let them get just enough rope to hang themselves with. Ama interrupts by feeling Miyuki return to Prime and alerts them, they call Warren to relay in.
<kalonZombie> Exiting Hyperspace, the Avenger finds the wreck of the Interceptor with the three inside and okay. Conferencing in with the PAX and Asteroid C, everyone is brought up to date.
<kalonZombie> Later, on Oracle Planet, Alt. Ao and Erevis are united with family and the group has a moment of joy as more of those lost are reunited. Ao seems very distant however.
<kalonZombie> In the Delta Quadrant, Ao's Son whines to a superior of some sort that he wants his momma back. In the darkness, a scarred Darien Starr agrees to get her back.
<kalonZombie> On Wind's Earth, John is researching a Motenk Pyramid he once died in and the Motenks were ressurected witihin. He begins to plan an off the books mission for Red Team.

And now...

<DeathStar> Date: 10-608.9.4 / 10-605.2.17 / February 17th, 2241
<DeathStar> Location: Prime, Vatican City / SU Base (intro to follow)
<DeathStar> 6* Josephine's group slowly makes their way underground in this opening scene until they begin to approach an area of the catacombs that is smoking, decayed corpses thrown from their ancient caskets - John still not having gotten them all out to the Catholic planet yet. There are some fresh ones on top of what looks to be John Hale, to be determined if he lives or not yet.
<DeathStar> 6* Most of Hale's men groan on the ground, sitting up and immediately taking stock of the area ahead that is a crater, leading down to deep crevices in the earth
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "See to the wounded. Eyes open for any threats."
<DeathStar> 6* As Josephine and Hale's men set up perimeters, Josephine's men also helping out with the wounded, they unbury Hale who is coming around, the winhd just knocked out of him
<DeathStar> 6* It seems there are just two dead, at the epicenter, and two in front of Hale who shielded him
<DeathStar> 6* Mostly due to bad luck of debris and bone flying through their armor
<DeathStar> <Lieutenant> Everyone seems fine to move, ma'am. Outside the dead
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale shakes his head <Bluh, remind me to take tour duty next time>
<DeathStar> 6* One trooper kicks an ancient pope's head over, eyeing the bone turn to dust
<DeathStar> 6* They jerk at the sounds of crying kids
<kalonZombie> <Hale> We have at least one intruder. Some kind of... woman... thing.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale blinks, looking around for the kids
<DeathStar> 6* Up ahead through the dust of the epicenter and off to the sides of the crevice
<DeathStar> 6* One soldier shines his light up and sees cracks up into the base, but not too bad
<DeathStar> 6* It seems John's reinforceing helped out
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Alright, sounds like the school group may be down here now. Let's go in to rescue."
<DeathStar> 6* A woman figure wiht blonde hair dangles from above and drops down out of sight into the crevice
<DeathStar> 6* The smoke hiding her face and clothing mostly
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Who was that?
<DeathStar> <Trooper> Whoever it was is crazy, making that jump into that pit
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *points at some of the men* "Stay with the wounded. Rest with me."
<DeathStar> 6* A few of them move ahead toward the closest crying, spotting two middle schoolers near the ledge in front of them and grab them, yanking them up
<DeathStar> 6* A bit further down at the point they are at is two more - though who knows how far into the crevice how many fell, which is where the blonde woman went
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Set up lines, we need to head down."
<DeathStar> 6* The troops begin to drive in ropes, talking to the two studenhts they can see. A Few more eye the far cave wall and fire ropes down at that wall to form a zip line
<DeathStar> 6* Giving them two ways to get down
<DeathStar> 6* A set of troopers slide down to go after the two students they can see, climbing to them
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Hale, cna you coordinate rescue operations from up here?"
<DeathStar> <Lieutenant> Should we split up, one grapple down and one zipline down?
<DeathStar> 6* He motions at the two paths
<DeathStar> 6* The zipline being the more risky path
<DeathStar> 6* Hale's comm beeps with static
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Let's take the grapple for now, after we save the kids
<DeathStar> 6* The troopers grab the kids and climb back up with their gear
<kalonZombie> 6*He blinks, then tries to tune it
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be their personal channel. He can feel in his bond something is wrong
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "What is it?"
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Something's wrong...
<DeathStar> 6* But is it panic from Em for the kids, or?
<kalonZombie> <Hale> <Em? Em can you hear me?>
<DeathStar> <Em> <Need a team up here...others are in danger...>
<DeathStar> 6* Is all she gets out before something jams her. She doesn't seem to be in immediate danger at least
<kalonZombie> <Hale> New plan. Half of you with me, we're going back topside.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Josephine, you stay here and continue.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Alright, be careful."
<DeathStar> <Lieutenant> Well *He peers at Josephine* You want the zipline or the grapple?
<kalonZombie> 6*He nods, taking half the men with him topside
<DeathStar> 6* Hale's people go with him, directing him to the gate Josephine found as the fastest way out
<kalonZombie> 6*He nods to them in appreciation
<DeathStar> 6* There's a noise further down, a woman's voice, likely trying to help children, from the zipline's direction
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I'm taking the zipline. This is a rescue mission, people! Move out!"
<DeathStar> 6* The lieutenant nods and takes the grapple with one other, the majority going with Josephine
<DeathStar> 6* He moves downward from their point to make sure no stray kids fell straight down, while the rest zip across the chasm with Josephine toward the voices
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Inside
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga's group has broken away from all the teachers as the evacuate, as well as the EarthGov people, and moved inside a stray room to gear up
<AquaKoala> *Jade changes into her armour
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga taps her gauntlet and pet tiger forms, and her bikini armor begins to extend from her gauntlet, covering her body
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander taps his gauntlet as well
<AquaKoala> *Jade forms Tito Brass the Bull
<Nyaomi> 6Jem looks anxious, having been reluctant to leave Lenneth for some reason
<Sera> * Si fuus and pulls her gear from subspace. Michelle looks nervous, not having something to store her bow in. Si grins and pulls one out and tosses it to her.
<Sera> * Si taps her Gauntlet while Michelle pulls that out and taps hers.
<Chain> 6*Kitty changes into her armor as well
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Lets hope Ako and Iko get their butts over here
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga peers at Jem
<DeathStar> <Taiga> You okay
<Sera> Si> "I tried telling Gor in the bond."
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Yeah...
<Sera> Si> <You able to get in?>
<DeathStar> <Taiga> You help the team's emotional bond, if you're out of it..
<Nyaomi> <Jem> I'm just worried about the princess
<kalonZombie> 6*Up to DS if Gor's made it here or not yet
<Nyaomi> <Jem> She brought me
<DeathStar> 6* Gor is likely inside the base now, heading there
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Lenneth? I'm sure she's getting out just fine
<Nyaomi> 6Jem rubs her head. 1"I was going to skip again..."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> <I'm heading to you now>
<DeathStar> <Taiga> She has progenitor powers
<Sera> Si> "He should be here soon."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga puts her tiger back into her gauntlet for now
<Nyaomi> <Jem> But she's not one of the zodiac, right?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> *forming her kitty gauntlets*
<Sera> Si> "Cheria is out there fighting too, she's got powers to help the others."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> No, she's not.
<Nyaomi> <Jem> So... yeah/
<Sera> Si> "And Mal probably."
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka taps her gauntlet and sends her owl out to scout, unbundling her sword.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Everyone ready? We're heading up to the control center to cut off the Arcana, and identify them
<DeathStar> 6* Butterfly and Mute stand behind them
<kalonZombie> <Xander> If I know Mal, he's probably setting his legs on fire trying to help people
<AquaKoala> Jade> So is Mr. Aduxley and Mr. Giblin.
<Sera> * Si fuus and nods.
<Chain> <Kitty>You know I'm ready
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander nods
<Sera> Michelle> "M-My Dad is out there too."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga opens the door and peers out, moving and bumping into Gor, about to throw a punch
<Chain> 6*Kitty grabs her
<Sera> Si> "It's Gor."
<AquaKoala> *Jade peeks outside
<Chain> <Kitty> easy Taiga
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Sorry. Jumpy.
<Sera> * Si fuus and hugs on him.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> At least with Gor we can get schematics of this place now
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> I'm glad I practiced with it, or this would be disorienting..
<DeathStar> 6* The owl would fly over hallways that are emptied out and EArthGov soldiers patrolling
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka uses a link to the gauntlet and owl, getting imagery fed to her right eye to see what the owl sees.
<Sera> Michelle> "I-I know most of the place too, Dad's taken me here before for pre-Officer training."
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Nothing, nothing...
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Woah, hey Taiga 6*He hugs Si
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Nothing? Not even soldiers?
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga looks creeped out at that
<Chain> 6*Kitty starts looking about
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Just lead me to any of the computers here and let me at it
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga moves downh the hallway thoughtfully
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor and Xander follow her
<DeathStar> 6* About to round a corner into a patrol
<Chain> <Kitty> Taiga, Jade and I could go and scout, Jade being stupid fast and my ripples
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> No, nothing at all
<DeathStar> 6* Butterfly floats and Mute hugs her bare
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> besides those, anyway
<AquaKoala> *Jade nods
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Those what--
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga steps around and eyes the soldiers
<DeathStar> <EarthGov Soldier> Halt!
<DeathStar> <EarthGov Soldier> Come on kids, time to go back to your class
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka leaps up and knocks him out with the hilt of her sword
<DeathStar> 6* They lower their weapons and approah non chalant. Taiga eyes Ouka slowly
<Chain> 6*Kitty reels
<AquaKoala> *Jade reels
<kalonZombie> <Xander> Woah there now, come on guy, can't you just let us through? 6*He asks with his power
<DeathStar> 6* As the leader falls, the other 6 soldiers jerk and aim at Ouka
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> I said besides them
<kalonZombie> 6*Then facepalms as Ouka does that
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka darts off away from them the other way
<Chain> <Kitty> what the flying fuck
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Go, get lost.
<DeathStar> 6* Three move after Ouka, the other three aim at the others
<DeathStar> <EarthGov Soldiers> Move and get stunned kids
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga lifts herh ands
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Yeah, yeah
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor and Xander lift theirs
<Chain> 6*Kitty raises her arms
<AquaKoala> *Jade does as well "We aren't with her"
<Sera> * MIchelle grimaces and raises her hands, as does Si.
<kalonZombie> <Xander> We really aren't 6*He tries to sweettalk the leader
<Chain> <Kitty> if you hurt me you have to answer to my father and mother, Delano nd X giblin
<DeathStar> 6* The soldiers lead them to a dentention area until they can talk to John
<DeathStar> <EarthGov Soldier> Then don't make us hurt you
<DeathStar> 6* They lock them in
<AquaKoala> *Jade deadpans internally
<Chain> <Kitty> seriously what the fuck was that
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> ... She didn't even use her foxfire...
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor sighs
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Alright
<Chain> 6*Kitty looks at Taiga
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Now we get out
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Jade, vibrate through the wall and turn the shield off
<AquaKoala> *Jade eyes the shield and starts to vibrate through
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor checks to see if the locks are controlled electronically or Taiga has a plan already that works okay
<DeathStar> 6* The shield would repel JAde painfully
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Not the shield - the wall. Then go around
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga helps Jade up
<AquaKoala> *Jade rubs her head "Sorry." *Jade moves to go through the wall
<DeathStar> 6* Jade would pop out in a side hallway that is empty. She just has t ouse her super speed to rush back - while aking sure no guards are in the dentention hallway
<DeathStar> 6* Meanwhile, the three guards rush on after Ouka, firing stun shots
<DeathStar> <Soldier> Don't make this any harder on yourself!
<AquaKoala> *Jade begins to super speed her way back, peeking around corners as she goes
<DeathStar> 6* No one on guard duty - apparantly being kids they didn't think them worthy of the time it took to grab John and come back to guard
<AquaKoala> *Jade looks around for a button to turn off the shield
<DeathStar> 6* There is indeed a button
<AquaKoala> *Jade presses said button
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga steps out
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka leaps up and skirts the wall, turning and swinging the sheathed blade to crack at another's head, kicking for a second's stomach
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Okay, lets avoid anymore confrontations - we don't need our parents getting involved
<AquaKoala> Jade> Gor, could you try to get a map from the computer?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We need a schematic of the upperl evels. Until then, we'll scount ahead like Kitty suggested once we find a computer
<DeathStar> <Taiga> And once JAde recovers from the wall
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor moves over and starts to type away on it, not wanting to jump in quite yet
<DeathStar> (There's no computer here)
<kalonZombie> (Oh whoops)
<Sera> * Si nods and steps out, Michelle sighing a bit. "Like they need to be distracted right now."
<DeathStar> (Too high of a chance prisoners would hijack it)
<Chain> 6*Kitty rubs her head
<DeathStar> <Taiga> ... *She grabs a vent and kicks it out
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Inside everyone. Until JAde gets her energy back up, we'll crawl
<AquaKoala> *Jade climbs up
<Sera> (* Peter always has them put it down three sets of halls and upside down on the ceiing, having escaped too many times.))
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor and Xander crawl inside
<DeathStar> 6* Ouka cracks one, but the other two grab her and hold her up, stunning her
<Chain> <Kitty> i'll help you up Taiga
<Chain> 6*Kitty being taller than her now
<Sera> * Si crawls in and Michelle follows.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Thanks
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Prime, City
<DeathStar> 6* X carries Winston toward work, waving at Em, shortly before her call, when suddenly the air begins to sizzle with energy. X jerks and eyes an open car window and tosses Winston in, as gracefully as she can and leaps, right as the area she was at explodes, sending sidewalk everywhere
<AquaKoala> *Winston sleeps
<DeathStar> 6* X is sent flying through the glass window of Em's resturant and lands hard on her counter. A ripple opens up above her and a hand grabs her hair and lifts her up and back out side and flings her inhto a post, then pins her against a wall, the arrow making blood gush out as a woman approaches, looking younger in the eyes and face despite being the same age practically, purple hair flying
<DeathStar> 6* Em jerks and forms her weapon when a young girl trips her and a dog bites her leg. A girl with a twisted grin appears sitting on her counter, a spirit leash around Em's neck
<DeathStar> <Girl> Nuh uh oh.
<DeathStar> 6* She flings Em out of the malamute's mouth into the back of her kitchen while she eats her apple and Em slams into a stove, grabbing her comm and trying to warn Hale about X
<DeathStar> 6* X yanks her arrow and puts pressure, then is grabbed by her hair again and eyes her own face
<DeathStar> <Other X> You're the ultimate weapon here? Don't. *knee to the face* Make. *knee* Me. *knee* Laugh.
<DeathStar> 6* She forms an arrow and aims at the car with Winston and fires, X barely having time to ripple Winston to Tomoe before it explodes, making the other X think he's dead.
<DeathStar> <Other X> *Grabs her by the throat* For all your talk, you're a disappointment. I'm going to kill your kid and husband just as easily. *She twists*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Top of the Vatican Base
<DeathStar> 6* John eyes the read outs of the attack, tapping his comm as Hale exits and is able to be talked to again
<DeathStar> <John> Hale? What happened in the catacoms?
<DeathStar> 6* On the other comm he has the energy shield bought and being shipped to Tabetha's lab
<kalonZombie> <Hale> There's another X out there, younger, did something crazy with ripples.
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka messages Peter as she reaches the base and is outside helping wounded kids and James
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Do you know where Em is?
<DeathStar> (Hale wouldn't know that)
<kalonZombie> (oh whoops)
<kalonZombie> (thought he got a look at her before going unconscious)
<Sera> Peter> *has been trying to make sure most of the kids are safe* <Need help?>
<kalonZombie> <Hale> There was an intruder, an explosion... not sure after that. The men that could have told you died.
<DeathStar> <John> Damn. do you need Peter to aid you?
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Em sent me a message asking for help though.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> If he can spare it, but don't sweat it too much.
<DeathStar> 6* John brings up the police radio band in the city, getting a car explosion and a fight going on
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei is busy meditating things and can't be spared here
<Sera> Peter> "Still thinks he's a one man army does he."
<DeathStar> <John> I got a lot of troops in the base, go help him Peter.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Where was the fight at?
<DeathStar> <John> At your resturant, Hale.
<kalonZombie> 6*He nods, motioning for Peter and the troops that came with him to follow
<DeathStar> <John> *He patches this into Del*
<DeathStar> <John> Delano
<Sera> * Tabetha helps secure things and gets ready for the shield. Peter nods and grabs his jacket, adjusting his tactical suit. "Be there in a jiffy."
<DeathStar> 6* He brings up a camera outside the school where Del is helping with the kids
<Sera> Peter> "Remember we have backup." *he moves off*
<DeathStar> 6* He tries to go through the camera feeds in the city, most destroyed and reading what is being said on the police radio
<DeathStar> (Destroyed in that area)
<Sera> * Tabetha frowns and works, rubbing her forehead a little.
<DeathStar> <John> James, get Del's attention. 6* He tries the Principal's attention, since they're all in front of the base getting medical attention
<DeathStar> 6* John watches Vodka on the monitor, healing students who were hurt as well as soldiers, looking drained
<DeathStar> 6* John shakes his head, then turns as a soldier walks up to tell him about the attacking students
<AquaKoala> *James waves Del over
<DeathStar> <John> .... It may be nothing. *He tosses dowhn the head set where he wanted to warn Del and moves off with the guarD*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Sera> * Tabetha sighs a little. <If it's my little sister and her friends... it is something, but not a bad thing.>
<DeathStar> Location: Inside the Base
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga and company, minus Ouka temporarily, exit inside a minor computer hub through the vent
<DeathStar> 6* Landing on the ground
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga seems sluggish
<AquaKoala> *Jade yelps, falling out
<Chain> 6*Kitty lands just fine
<DeathStar> 6* Then is crushed by Jade
<DeathStar> 6* Butterfly and Mute come out, Butterfly flapping down
<Sera> * Si peers around, she steadies Taiga. Michelle shakes her head
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor slides out carefully, Xander floats down gently
<kalonZombie> <Gor> I might be able to get schematics from these...
<Chain> 6*Kitty helps Taiga and Jade up
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Thanks, Kitty - go for it, Gor.
<AquaKoala> *Jade sighs "Thanks"
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga rubs her head, trying to shake off lethargic
<DeathStar> 6* By now Jade's energy seems back for speed
<AquaKoala> *Jade goes through her bag and hands taiga an energy drink
<Chain> <Kitty>...you ok Taiga?
<Nyaomi> <Jem> What's wrong Taiga?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I think something happened to Ouka and it's affecting me. I'm trying to disconnect my battle energy with her
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor moves to get the schematics by hand, though considering he breaks into weak spots in random computers for fun, he's really fast
<DeathStar> <Taiga> The guards must have stunned her
<Sera> * MIchelle peers over some arrows, fingering them. "Any idea why she wouldn't tell us about the guards?"
<Chain> 6*Kitty bites her tongue and opens the energy drink for Taiga
<Chain> <Kitty> drink this
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Kitty I could just-- n-never mind
<Chain> <Kitty> I could what
<kalonZombie> <Xander> Cooould?
<Sera> * Si pats Gor and lends him some energy for his delve.
<Nyaomi> <Jem> My ability... I could have helped her
<kalonZombie> 6*He'ss not delving mentally though
<AquaKoala> *Jade downs an energy drink, jittering a bit
<Chain> <Kitty> no offence but what the fuck does that have to do with me if its your ability
<Chain> (oh wow
<Chain> (disrgard me
<Chain> (i really misread that
<Nyaomi> (Such venom, much rawr, so wow)
<DeathStar> 6* PREPARE YOURSELF GOR
<DeathStar> 6* Right, Right, DOwn, Down, Down, Up, Down, Up, I HACK YOU
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<DeathStar> 3
<kalonZombie> lluuududHACK
<DeathStar> 2
<DeathStar> 1
<DeathStar> 6* Gor breaks in
<DeathStar> 6* TAiga drinks it
<Chain> 6*Kitty rubs Taiga's back
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor downloads the schematics and sends them to everyone present's datapads
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga glances at it
<AquaKoala> *Jade looks it over
<Chain> 6*Kitty looks
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Okay, wow, it's a few floors up still
<Sera> * Si looks it over and Michelle nods. "Yes."
<AquaKoala> Jade> Jem, if you wanted to use your powers now is the time.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We can use the vents - if we want to be cramped, or try the stairs or elevators, which are likely guarded
<DeathStar> 6* Morrigan looks worried about Ouka
<Chain> 6*Ros pats Morrigan
<AquaKoala> JadE> I vote wents, no point making it harder on ourselves
<Chain> <Kitty> yeah
<kalonZombie> <Xander> Sounds good to me
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Let's vent it up
<Sera> * Si and Michelle nod.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Lets go upward.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Chain> <Ros> Mori, I know your worried but we need your head in the game here with us
<DeathStar> (Ros' line makes it)
<DeathStar> Location: Catacoms
<DeathStar> 6* Josephine's group gets lower into the catacombs, finding a blonde woman helping gather children onto a ledge, six of them
<DeathStar> <Woman> Stay here, I have to go back down to get your class mates
<DeathStar> 6* She peers down, her blue eyes calculating
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *raises a hand to signal silence from her men and then tries to get a look at the woman's face*
<DeathStar> 6* The teacher peers at Josephine
<DeathStar> <Woman> Good, the calvary is here, you can start sending these kids back oup
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "How many?"
<DeathStar> <Woman> I have six of them here so far, start sending them up
<DeathStar> 6 *She orders, then leaps out of sight like she just killed herself but somehow manages to calculate impossiblely a land on a tiny ridge, flips off with her momentum to another rock, then flips down and down
<DeathStar> <Soldier> ... did I just see that?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "We'll worry about that later. Get these kids back topside."
<DeathStar> 6* They start putting kids onto little devices and sending them up
<DeathStar> <Soldier 2> What's that teacher's name, kid? <Kid> Mrs. Alligheri
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Sounds vaguely familiar."
<DeathStar> 6* Half of Josephine's people, leaving her with just two, go up with the kids
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is heard below trying to comfort a student and begins to leap back up, but her way up breaks and she's stuck half-way
<DeathStar> <Aya> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks around, as if trying to calculate the odds in her head of which way to bounce back, barely in sight from Josephine's spot
<DeathStar> <Soldier> Looks like the civvie is stuck
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Set some more lines down. We need to expedite this rescue op."
<DeathStar> <Soldier> We're done to one more, Ma'am and they won't reach her
<DeathStar> 6* The Lieutenant in the other are tells Josephine they cleared out the other spot of kids anhd are heading upward
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Secure and lower me down there."
<DeathStar> 6* They secure the line and lower Josephine as close as they can, which leaves a 10 meter gap of Josephine practically hanging in the darkness. Aya turns as Josephine descends
<DeathStar> <Aya> Lt.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya judges the distance between her and Josephine, as if trying to decide something
<DeathStar> <Aya> Do you think you can catch 85 pounds of weight on that line?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "We can't leave you down here. We're going to need to try it, even if its one at a time."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Alright. *She talks to the student about jumping, and the girl freezses up. Aya sighs, greabs her and flings her at Aya, but the way she does it is so calculated she sails perfectly at Josephine, the girl shrieking, arms spread to catch Josephine*
<DeathStar> <Aya> Catch.

<DeathStar> <Aya> I'll wait around
<DeathStar> 6* Aya smiles, lips moving to herself and eyeing the wall of the cave, following little grooves in it
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Ok, boys! Bring me up! Carefully!"

<DeathStar> 6* John and the soldiers look around, and see little curtains approaching

<DeathStar> 6* John walks with the other two toward the curtains as they sneak toward them, going nin nin nin
<DeathStar> 6* John lifts it up and under it is a straw cat with a tape recorder strapped to it. Meanwhile, Ako and Iko grab Ouka and throw down catnip, poofing and pulling her awayh. The other guard jerks and coughs
<DeathStar> 6* Ako and Iko drag Ouka down the hallway and launch their catclaw to the ceiling, sailing up to the rafters as John and the others rush through the catnip cloud looking around
<DeathStar> <John> .... I hate kids!
<Sera> Tabetha> <Definitely them.>
<Nyaomi> 6John hears a sniffle from Key
<DeathStar> <John> Not our kid, Key

<DeathStar> Location: Control Room
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei sits alone, doing her work, moving back and forth and ordering people, noting Hale is almost there. With her headset on her head, she talks to Delano when he gets on
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Hello, Mr. Del
<AquaKoala> Del> Hey Lore, what's happening?
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I think General McCormick wanted you to head out with General Sullivan and the others who left a few minutes ago
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> He saw something that pertained to you on the police reports
<AquaKoala> Del>...Where are they now?
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Heading to Hale's wife's resturant.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Ah, here's the police report he was reading
<AquaKoala> *Del rushes for the garage, listening on the headset
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Witnesses saw a woman with purple hair at the scene. I think your wife's salon is nearby? She might have been going to work, or be there now. IT may not be her, ... how many purple haired people do we have...
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei brings up the data. "Only 20."
<AquaKoala> Del> Was that all?
<AquaKoala> *Del climbs onto his bike
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Yes. *She gives the detail of reports of an attack there*
<AquaKoala> *Del revs up and speeds off for it
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Anyway, the school situation outside is under control and we have soldiers here who can handle Taiga's vision
<AquaKoala> Del> I'll be there in five minutes
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei clicks off
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei moves back to her console when she sees a group of students peering at her
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Oh, you have to go - this is area is off limits, I'm afraid
<DeathStar> 6* A tall girl in a classic japanese school outfit approaches with the other girls. "I'm afraid this is where we wait to be, Lorelei Mizukaze. We've come for you."

<DeathStar> *ceiling
<Sera> Si> "How do we get in?"
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Thanks you two...
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I don't think vents go in there
<DeathStar> <Taiga> They have independent air systems
<Sera> Si> "Blow the door then?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> If we can't either hack, or Jade vibrate in...
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I suppose we could mech in
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor looks for a control panel
<Nyaomi> <Jem> It's okay... I can get this
<DeathStar> <Taiga> But theyll be pissed
<Sera> Si> "Fuuu?"
<DeathStar> 6* There's a control panel/key card
<DeathStar> 6* A gun turrent suddenly comes alive above them and aims

<Sera> Si> "How rude."
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka makes a face, calling on the owl to strike it
<kalonZombie> 6*Diving to take cover, Xander trying to TK the gun's muzzle away from them
<AquaKoala> *Jade reels, super speeding and serpentining towards it
<DeathStar> <Girl> Ah, the two traitors with their new friends. *She leans in, her eagle wings flapping* I wouldn't come in if you don't want us killing your sister. *She tells Taiga, as the gun is disabled*
<Sera> * Si and Michelle leap back, Si snaps her fingers and sends a flame flash at it.
<DeathStar> <Morrigan> ... you!
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Y--you bitch
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor makes a face
<DeathStar> <Girl> Or maybe we already skinned her and this fur coat I have on is her tails. 6* She wiggles a blood soaked fur thing around her neck*
<Chain> 6*Kitty and Ros glare
<Sera> Michelle> "...That's about the worst attempt at a hostage threat I've ever heard."
<DeathStar> <Girl> But you heroes can't take that chance? Now stay the fuck out of our way before I start turning this entire base against every soldier in here and turn it into a blood bath. I have someone I'm waiting on
<DeathStar> 6* She clicks off the camera
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I--I...
<Nyaomi> 6Jem brings up her tarot and closes her eyes, taking on adult form that looks so very similar to Mem, but many of Katrina's features.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga has ragged breaths
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Do you want this door open..?
<Sera> Si> You know they totally plan to do that anyway right?"
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka makes a face and puts a hand on Taiga
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor hacks into the cameras with his mind, looking to see if Lore is still safe
<Sera> Si> She's just hoping you hesitate long enough to do what they need to do.
<AquaKoala> Jade> Yes Jem, please open the door if you can do it quietly
<DeathStar> 6* PRepare yourself, Gor

<Chain> <Kitty> Taiga I can make a ripple but you need to make the call
<DeathStar> 6* Gor gets a view into the room as about 10 of the Arcana girls, all transformed into various powers - they seem to have the other half of the Tarot powers that the group doesn't have, are at consoles, typing away. A ripple opens up and a man steps in, overseeing it
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We need to go in, Lorelei or not
<DeathStar> 6* AS Gor pans down, he'd see a bloody mess that is likely Lorelei
<Nyaomi> 6Jem grits her teeth and brings her hand back.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Get ready to take them down once we go in
<Sera> Si> Alright Jem, go for it."
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly alarms begin to go off
<AquaKoala> Jade> Don't Kitty, we need all of our power for the fight
<DeathStar> 6* The base is likely doing it's stuff all over
<kalonZombie> 6*As he's in here as it is, Gor boosts the firewalls and such to make it harder for the Arcana girls to find what they're looking for
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Everyone back a little. Hrrr...AHHhh!" 6She takes a step and slams her fist into the door in her adult form, her blonde-red hair like a lion's mane
<Chain> 6*Kitty nods, then blinks at the alarms
<DeathStar> 6* The doors bend a little, but hold
<AquaKoala> *Jade turns to Kitty "Okay, our turn then"
<Sera> * Si supports Gor. "More! And fast!"
<DeathStar> 6* The man turns to the doors, but the girls begin to use the base to fire at the students outside. Vodka jerks and uses her powers to defend, shielding them, taking the damage into herself as students flee
<Chain> 6*Kitty reels and makes a ripple
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga leaps through
<Chain> <Kitty> Go go go
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor then starts making their console and only theirs specifically act weird, backing out of folders and opening random programs and such
<DeathStar> 6* All eyes are on the door that aren't hacking, thanks to Jem, and so they don't see them coming in
<Sera> * Michelle readies and jerks a bit at Vodka, but braces herself. Kumiko appears outside by Vokda and starts ripple shielding.
<AquaKoala> *Jade jumps through and focuses on merging with Kitty
<DeathStar> 6* Gor would need to do another oppopsite game, since he is in the cameras only
<DeathStar> 6* So, prepare yourself Gor
<Chain> 6*Ros leaps in
<DeathStar> 6* Right Right Right Right, Down, Down, Lefrt, Up, Down, Right, Down, Up, Down, Right, Left, Down, up, Down, right, LEft, Down

<DeathStar> 6* PRotecting soldiers inside the base from their attacks and not turning all the guns on outside so that JAmes can flee
<DeathStar> 6* MOrrigan and Ako and Iko leap in
<DeathStar> 6* The man turns toward the ripple, as if he detects it, while the arcana girls do not
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander starts TKing guns away from Arcana soldiers if he can
<DeathStar> <Man> ... another ripple user?
<Sera> * Michelle pulls back three arrow and her eyes gaze for a millisecond before she loses them on the Arcana girls farthest from them, the arrows moving in paths.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga leaps at the man, swinging her fist
<DeathStar> <Taiga> ARGHHHH!
<DeathStar> 6* The man opens a ripple and she punches Morrigan in the face, knocking her out
<Sera> * Si lets out a fireball at another group.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga swings again and then he ripples, Taiga punching her own gut
<DeathStar> <Taiga> HURK
<AquaKoala> *Jade focuses on forming her mech
<Sera> Si> "Fuuuu!" *she sets Gor down by Michelle and leaps into the air, moving for Taiga and the man*

<Chain> 6*Kitty comes through and goes to clock the man
<Sera> * Michelle fires two arrows through teh ripple. Stuns.
<Sera> * Stun burst arrows
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander tries to pull one of the man's legs from under him to trip him up

<DeathStar> Location: Em's Resturant (intro to follow)
<DeathStar> 6* Everyone but Del, who is behind, arrives at Em's resturant. A car is on fire and Em's front window is broken. There is also a lamppost that is destroyed and has blood around it
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale has his rifle drawn, moving towards the lamp post slowly
<DeathStar> 6* One old man stands there, eyeing Em's resturant, as if wondering if the resturant is open
<kalonZombie> <Hale> We're closed.
<DeathStar> 6 *He sighs and moves off
<Sera> * Peter peers around, he slowly eyes the old man.
<DeathStar> 6* The lamp post seems to have been broken from impact
<DeathStar> 6 *The blood looks like a good amount, but no body
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale looks to see if there's a trail around
<Sera> Peter> Whoever they were battering around, they took with them.
<DeathStar> 6* There seems to be no trail
<Sera> * Peter peers into the restaurant looking at the damage.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> No trail. They probably rippled out.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves to look in the resturaunt as well
<DeathStar> 6* Stools and the bar are damaged
<Sera> Peter> "Can you sense your wife?"
<DeathStar> 6* As if someone was slammed into it
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale tries to do so
<DeathStar> 6* The door into the kitchen are is also broken. So far Hale can't sense, a sign she might be unconscious or out of range
<Sera> * Peter walks over and peers into the kitchen.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> She's either unconscious or the one that was taken away
<DeathStar> 6* There are sounds of something big chewing in the kitchen
<DeathStar> 6* The chewing sounding sickening
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves towards the kitchen, gun ready
<Sera> * Peter pulls his gun as he leans in.
<DeathStar> 6* A malumute sits on the floor, eating something out of sight, blood leaking around the counter of whatever it is it's eating
<DeathStar> 6* There's some green hair also on the floor around the corner
<Sera> * Peter uses his stealth ability and frowns, moving around to get a look, getting a good shot lines on the dog.
<DeathStar> 6* As Peter moves to go around, a young girl's voice speaks
<DeathStar> <Voice> New playmates?
<Sera> Peter> "New nightmares. Where is she?"
<DeathStar> 6* The malamute pauses in eating and growls at Peter, turning, red on it's face
<Sera> * Peter fingers a kunai under his sleeve.
<DeathStar> <Girl> Right there, silly
<DeathStar> 6* She points at the floor where PEter was heading
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale trains his rifle at the malamute, stun rounds ready
<Sera> * Peter leaps onto the counter and peers over to see who it is and if they're alive.
<DeathStar> 6* The 10 year old girl, dressed in a fluffy lolita outfit is on a counter
<DeathStar> 6* Em is on the floor beside --- all their supply of meat the malamute is eating
<DeathStar> 6* Her face a little bruised and battered from hitting the stove, some signs of burn since it was hot
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale puts his rifle to the girl, but doesn't fire
<Sera> Peter> "...That dog... and you..."
<kalonZombie> <Hale> You're not allowed on the counter.
<DeathStar> 6* The malamute leaps at Hale as he aims at the girl and bites his arm
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale screams, trying to shove the dog off
<DeathStar> 6* The dog seems almost supernatural, and forms into a naked woman and is holding Hale's arm, then throws him at Peter
<DeathStar> 6* The girl leaps off.
<Sera> Peter> "tosses the stunning Kunai at the dog and levels his own gun at the girl*
<DeathStar> <Girl> I think we delay--
<DeathStar> 6* She touches the woman who phases out of touch
<Sera> * Peter shifts to catch Hale.
<DeathStar> 6* The kunai going through
<DeathStar> 6* And steps into the main area with the nude woman, blinking at Del
<DeathStar> <Girl> Well fruck
<Sera> Peter> "...Weapon Spirit."
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale blinks "Dog is girl. Got it.
<DeathStar> 6* The woman growls, blood on her chin. She spins her staff
<DeathStar> 6* The girl spins it
<DeathStar> 6* The nude woman just holds up bare hands
<Aqua> *Del shoots at the girls knee in a blur
<Sera> * Peter grunts and nods to him. "Check on your woman." *he moves for the door*
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves to check on Em
<DeathStar> 6* The girl phases and the shot hits the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* The nude woman leaps at Del faster than he can track, like a dog, and bites his shoulder, fangs sinking in
<Sera> * Peter pulls four string Kunai and tosses them into the rom around where the girl is, causing cutting lines to appear where she is.
<DeathStar> 6* And forms what appears to be a cannon like weapon, putting it against his gut, and fires, sending Del flying out the one remaining window into the burning car
<Aqua> *Del winces and tenses hard, attempting to shoot her while she's in his arm
<DeathStar> 6* Del would feel like all his ribs shattered, the blast leaving no external injury, just pulverizing his insides
<Sera> * Peter then pulls a stun grenade and tosses it at the woman.
<Aqua> *Del screams out
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale tries to shake Em awake "C'mon Em, we could really use a mech right now...
<DeathStar> 6* The woman jerks and is stunned, falling over and howling. The girl eyes PEter
<DeathStar> 6* Em groans and opens her eyes
<DeathStar> <Girl> You hurt my dog.
<DeathStar> 6* Spirit approaches Peter with her staff
<Sera> Peter> "I wouldn't move girly, phasing sucsk if you phase into inivisble wires."
<DeathStar> 6* She steps through them, smiling
<DeathStar> <Girl> You were saying?
<Sera> * Peter levels his gun at her face. Then holds up another Kunai.
<DeathStar> 6* She swings and hits Peter in the face, breaking a tooth
<DeathStar> <Girl> I hate know it alls.
<Sera> Peter> *grunts and drops teh Kunai, making the wires send electrical energy through them*
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Em, I know I'm asking a lot, but we could use a mech right now. We've got a girl who can phase and a girl who is also a dog
<DeathStar> 6* The girl walks around them, the wires doing nothing, but making her staff spark that she's holding, still phased
<DeathStar> <Em> If she's phased...we can't hit her...
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Well... any other ideas?
<Sera> * Peter backs up and tosses a Lightning Charm at her staff, holing for a lightnig pole effect.
<DeathStar> 6* The girl kicks at PEter's ribs
<DeathStar> <Girl> You. Are. Annoying. Me.
<DeathStar> 6* She unphasws to hit
<Sera> * Peter grunts and shifts to fire at her as she unphases.
<Aqua> *Del watches fromw where he landed, firing when she unphases
<DeathStar> 6* Em touches Hale to form am ech, ruining their resturant
<DeathStar> 6* The girl jerks as she's shot and bleeds
<DeathStar> 6* She giggles a little manically
<Sera> Peter> "Just had to piss you off." *he switches to stun and fires at her face*
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves to pin her down
<Aqua> *Del grimaces
<DeathStar> <Spirit> *holds up her staff, at that moment Peter would feel Vodka dying slowly from all the damage she's taking*
<DeathStar> <Spirit> Oh. That look in your face - that must be big brother's work. *She prods him, then jerks as she's pinned*
<Aqua> *Del fires more at her, aiming at her knees
<DeathStar> 6* Spirit phases and gets up, having lost her staff. She looks around for it
<DeathStar> <Em> .... Del, Peter...back away.
<DeathStar> <Em> Hale, we need to make a crater so she can't crawl out.
<Sera> * Peter grunts, he grabs a pill from his coat and takes it, standing. "I have to get back." *he backs away*
<DeathStar> <Em> Phased or not
<Aqua> *Del scoots away
<DeathStar> 6* Em sighs at her resturant being ground zero
<Aqua> Del> Take my bike Peter
<Sera> * Peter starts sending her what he can in the bond, turning to move.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods, then comforts her in the bond
<DeathStar> 6* Em flies up, shattering. Spirit unphases enough to grab her dog, scooting her along
<kalonZombie> <Hale> We'll build another one. I'm pretty sure the insurance covers this.
<Sera> * Peter nods and leaps for it, then rolls out. Kumiko back at base would be shifting to protect her.
<DeathStar> <Spirit> Come on, Lilith
<Aqua> *Del fires more as she unphases
<DeathStar> 6* Spirit jerks as she's shot and the look she gives Del is pure hate
<DeathStar> 6* Blood leaking
<Aqua> Del> You aren't going anywhere
<DeathStar> 6* The ten year old spits out blood, slowing down as she tries to save her dog
<Sera> * Peter drives the bike using his Pilot abilities with any vehicle to take a crazy and fast way to get there.
<DeathStar> 6* Em fires down at the two, and a huge crater forms from the explosion, Spirit and Lilith vanishing in the firey explosion
<Aqua> *Del scoots to look down
<DeathStar> 6* Debris rains down, landing about Del. Em deforms, naked, and eyes - there's no sign of the two, except some sharred fur
<DeathStar> <Em> I think I just killed a ten year old.
<DeathStar> <Em> Why didn't she phase again?
<Sera> Peter> <Hold on girly, I'm coming, my special helper should be there.>
<kalonZombie> <Hale> I don't know...
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale pulls his coat off and wraps it around Em
<DeathStar> 6* Em makes a face. "This is why I wanted out of this shit."
<Aqua> Del> I'll pay for the damages
<DeathStar> <Em> Fuck off
<DeathStar> 6* Em moves off
<kalonZombie> <Hale> It wouldn't be the same to her, Del...
<kalonZombie> 6*He moves to join Em, rubbing her back
<Aqua> *Del rubs his head and tries calling X
<DeathStar> <Em> I killed a kid and her fucking dog and he'll pay for the damages. *She seems pissed*
<DeathStar> 6* Del gets an answer, X's voice coming over
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Maybe they rippled out?
<DeathStar> <X> Hel, Del. I have a situation here, can you meet me at the salon?
<DeathStar> 6* She clicks off
<DeathStar> <Em> Maybe..
<kalonZombie> 6*He wraps an arm around her "I'm sorry I made you do that."
<DeathStar> <Em> You needed it done, I did it. 6* She shakes her head. "Lets get the kids..."
<DeathStar> <Em> I need family time
<Sera> * Peter goes fast as the bike will let him, rushing, adrenaline from the pill he popped surging. IN a zone while sending her his own life energy.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Peter, I have to sit the rest of this one out...
<DeathStar> Location: Catacombs
<DeathStar> 6* After getting the last kid up, all the is left is Aya. As Josephine prepares to descend again, the mechanism used to descend is destroyed when alarms go off and there's noises above and a piece of the base falls down, slamming into it
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks up from below
<DeathStar> <Aya> That sounded bad
<Jackieness> <Josephine> The gearing just got smashed to hell!"
<DeathStar> <Aya> *makes a little sad face*
<DeathStar> <Aya> It's not worth risking anyone to come get me
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'll try to find my own way out
<DeathStar> <Aya> If things are falling, you need to get your people out
<DeathStar> 6* The soldiers take Josephine's shoulder
<DeathStar> <Soldier> Come on, ma'am. This area is becoming unstable
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "No one gets left behind on my watch." *looks over* "Secure a rock or something to that line to weigh it down. We'll do this the old fashion way, soldiers! Elbow grease."
<DeathStar> 6* They pause, then nod
<DeathStar> 6* The soldiers grab the debris that fell down and do so
<DeathStar> <Aya> *Raises a brow*
<DeathStar> 6* Another one begins to lower Josephine slowly to Aya
<DeathStar> <Aya> You sure about this?
<DeathStar> <Aya> If jump, it could jerk us both down. I calculated the odds
<DeathStar> 6* IT seems Aya has highly intelligent brain that calculates odds and prediction paths, hence her ability to do what she did
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Duty is duty, and I'm damned stubborn."
<DeathStar> 6* And her OCD ways, like her eyeing grooves
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... *nods. She strips shoes off, her belt, her teacher's coat and other things, until she has just a blouse and pants*
<DeathStar> <Aya> Less weight will help
<DeathStar> 6* Aya leaps and grabs Josephine
<DeathStar> 6* Their weight jerks them downward, the rope above about to fall downward
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *reaches to grab a hold of Aya*
<DeathStar> 6* Josephine grabs her
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Hold it there, boys! Brace your footing!"
<DeathStar> 6* The soldiers strain and hold her, and at that moment more debris falls their way at Jose's head
<DeathStar> <Aya> ABove you
<DeathStar> 6* Aya unlocks Jose's gun
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *flips over and fires at the debris to blow it aside*
<DeathStar> 6* It misses them. AYa lets out a breath
<DeathStar> <Aya> This is a story for Dawn - thank you
<DeathStar> 6* They begin to get hauled up slowly
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Not much longer."
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Nearing the command Center
<DeathStar> 6* John walks along, trying to get back to his command center after many of his men died, only a bunny's hand, or god's, or whatever stopped most of thei nner defenses killing more. Outside two guns are still firing at Vodka and Kumiko
<DeathStar> 6* Just as John is about to reach the doors, eyeing them down the hall being busted inward a little, the men behind him suddenly die, heads hitting the ground. He turns, liftinhg his bracers in time to protect his own head. A blur begins to slash at him at rapidly, coming in at all angles, and blood splurts out
<Sera> * Kumiko scoops up Vodka, backing and using ripples to hold off the fire.
<DeathStar> 6* John howls in pain, swinging and hitting the enemy, but is stabbed in the shoulder, back, side - he kicks, uses a fire punch and eyes a man with high speed
<Sera> * Tabetha feels the pain and begins to head for him. Setting what she was doing in place as she goes.
<DeathStar> 6* John is stabbed into the wall
<DeathStar> <John> WHat...the hell...are you...?
<DeathStar> <Man> I am Weapon Slash. The First Weapon. *blades extend from his arms
<DeathStar> <Slash> You are my first victim in this age
<DeathStar> 6* He goes for John's throat when John punches SLash in the face
<Sera> * Tabetha rushes, putting her speed into it.
<DeathStar> 6* Tabetha arrives in a bloody hallway and sees John on the ground, kneeling
<Sera> * Tabetha rushes for him, but extends her awareness even as she does.
<DeathStar> 6* John holds his insides in. IT seems Slash is gone, his target done in in his opinion
<DeathStar> 6* John eyes Tabetha. "Not..dead..yet.."
<Sera> * Tabetha frowns and gives John her Dragoon Healing.
<DeathStar> 6* He falls over
<DeathStar> <John> *he mutters about Key and Round 2.
<Sera> * Tabetha taps her comm. "Key! Save point!"
<Nyaomi> 6Key appears by John and yelps aloud
<Sera> * Tabetha begins wrapping him up. "We need to close the wounds so my healing can regenerate him."
<DeathStar> 6* John looks unconscious, his life hanging by his own tenacity and the healing
<Nyaomi> <Key> Johnny..!
<DeathStar> 6* It seems he got lucky against the sneak attack
<Sera> Tabetha> "Can you focus the goddess power? I believe in you!"
<Nyaomi> 6Key puts her arms around him, froms wings of translucent light-- then possesses John
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Command Center
<DeathStar> 6* The Fire kick enters a ripple and burns Iko's tush, she squeals
<AquaKoala> Jade> Kitty!
<Sera> * Si jerks bakc careful to keep her leg.
<Sera> Si> "Bad Mr. Ripple!"
<Chain> 6*Kitty nods to Jade to merge
<DeathStar> 6* The one arcana girl that remains behind has the tarot card of IV, and she activates it, a sceptor appearing
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander tries to flip Mr. Ripple to suspend him upside down in the air
<AquaKoala> *Jade forms their mech
<Sera> * Michelle pulls another arrow, but waits a moment to aim it.
<Chain> 6*Kitty blasts for the sceptor
<DeathStar> 6* The girl aims her sceptor at Morrigan, who jerks and twitches, and screams. Suddenly, Morrigan turns on the group. Taiga rises, and Morrigan leaps at Ouika, punching heri n the face
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka leans back, eyes flared. 1"Riga..!?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor tries to leap into Morrigan
<kalonZombie> 6*Mind leap
<DeathStar> 6* The giant mech busts control panels and the roof a bit, ceiling falling in and all around
<Sera> Si> "The scenpter! Bash it!"
<Chain> <Ros> Mori!
<DeathStar> 6* AS the mech stands there. The sceptor goes flying off into the corner
<AquaKoala> *Jade advances, firing at the sceptor with Kitty
<DeathStar> 6* Morrigan picks up Ouka and snarls, and walks toward the Pope balcony to throw Ouka off
<DeathStar> 6* The girl rushes for her sceptor. Ripple sneers
<Chain> 6*Kitty fires at the sceptor again, Ros trying to pull them back
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Riga! Put me down!
<Sera> * Michelle aims an arrow and fires a Stun Arrow at Morrigan's back.
<DeathStar> 6* The sceptor glows, taking damage. Ripple opens a ripple and grabs it
<Chain> <Ros> Morrigan stop!
<DeathStar> 6* Then tosses it to the girl
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Keep your weapons, girl
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor keeps trying to mind jump into Morrigan
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka makes a face and touches Morrigan's face. 1"You're my baby girl, stop." 6She influences her
<Sera> * Michelle then fires another arrow, at the ripple to get to Ripple.
<AquaKoala> *Jade turns and boosts forward in a blur at the sceptor girl
<Chain> 6*Kitty keeps firing at the scepter an the hands holding it
<DeathStar> <Taiga> HOw do we sotp him? ...how did mom and the others beat him? We have to attack him from too many angles so he can't open a ripple on all of us, or hit him too fast to od it
<kalonZombie> <Xander> Hey Morrigan 6*He says, using his special ability
<Sera> Michelle> "Or use his ripples against him."
<kalonZombie> <Xander> Do me a favor and put Ouka down gently and safely
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple opens a ripple in front of the mech, but it's not big neough for it. It'll cleave the mech in two if Jade doesn't stop. The blast also goes inside it, blasting into the base
<DeathStar> 6* Morrigan twitches as Xander does that and sets Ouka down
<Sera> Si> "Jem, we need coordination."
<DeathStar> 6* With Ouka and Morrigan doing that, she is back to normal
<Chain> <Kitty> Guys we cant do this alone
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga moves behind Ripple
<Nyaomi> <Jem> My ability isn't like that..
<AquaKoala> *Jade burst around it rapidly
<Nyaomi> 6Jem dissolves her adult form.
<Sera> * MIchelle pulls back three arrows. She waits a moment.
<Chain> 6*Kitty readies herself
<Sera> * Si shifts towards a side, getting ready.
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperorer girl curses, her damaged spector aiming at AKo and Iko, blastingt them. They begin to fight each other, clawing and scratching
<DeathStar> <Taiga> *in the battle meld*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> <Someone come in at him from the front and side, I'll hit his back>
<Chain> 6*Ros pulls them apart
<Nyaomi> 6Jem eyes Ako and Iko and activates her power-- resonating comradery
<AquaKoala> Jade> <Front>
<DeathStar> 6* Morrigan looks mortified
<DeathStar> <MOrrigan> S-Sorry.
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> It's not your fault, stay safe.
<Chain> <Kitty><side>
<DeathStar> 6* Ako and Iko begin to pause
<DeathStar> <Taiga> <Okay, do it!>
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka trots to move up.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga gathers all her energy
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Jade, let me get the front." 6She crouches with her blade.
<Sera> * Si sends a gout of flame from one side. Michelle waits still.
<Chain> 6*Kitty charges and fires
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor stays out of the way, Xander standsby to help with his TK if need by
<AquaKoala> *Jade deforms the mech and rushes in at a blur, kicking rapidly
<DeathStar> 6* It seems the Emperor girl's only power is control, not being a fighter - if they take out Ripple, she'll have no back up
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Oi, old man
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple forms a ripple on Kitty and Jade, but Kitty would note he's a fraction slower on her's, making their attacks hit Gor and Jem. Taiga then hits him in the back with full force
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple is sent into the air
<DeathStar> 6* For 3
<Chain> 6*Kitty fires at him
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka lets out a breath, then sprints and draws, attacking quickly enough in her draw that she appears to be striking from the left, right and overhead
<AquaKoala> *Jade fires his smgs at him while in the air
<Sera> * Michelle fires her arrows at Rippe.
<DeathStar> 6* Kitty blasts him, them Michelle, then JAde
<DeathStar> 6* 2
<Nyaomi> 6Jem cries out, rolling backwards
<AquaKoala> *Jade continues firing
<Sera> * Si fuus and fires a flaming fist at him.
<Chain> 6*Kitty keeps her fire going
<DeathStar> 6* Ako and Iko form into Aiko, and the big breasted girl blasts him with a crystal spike
<DeathStar> 6* Blood splurts off ripple, and his eye pops out
<DeathStar> 6* 1
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Tsubame gaeshi!
<Sera> * Michelle fires another arrow, aiming for an eye.
<Chain> 6*Kitty aims at his head
<Chain> 6*and fires
<AquaKoala> *Jade pushes her smgs together and fires a shot from a giant gun at his heart
<DeathStar> 6* As his flish cooks, he holds up his hand taking the arrow, which at that moment they see where the ripple device is at briefly
<DeathStar> 6* He then lands after thel ast attack
<DeathStar> <Ripple> ... brats
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple stands there, his good eye tracking them
<DeathStar> 6* He waves his hand, a ripple forming and he steps into it
<kalonZombie> <Xander> You just jealous.
<DeathStar> <Ripple> Next time
<AquaKoala> *Jade fires at the machine
<DeathStar> <Taiga> If we can destroy his hand...
<Chain> 6*kitty fires at it as well
<AquaKoala> (device)
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka hits her gauntlet, eyes intensely focused, having seen the device for rippling, she pours all her agility into a strike from her adult form, feinting a strike from the front, but darting opposite and spins to slash for it
<Sera> * Michelle fires an electrical arrow at his arm and hand as he steps.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga swings at the device. Ripple waves his hand, forming ripples to deflect them, since they're coing all head on
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander TK's his arm in place
<DeathStar> 6* Ripple's arm freezes in place, so he makes the ripple attacks go at Xander
<DeathStar> (That head on is your only clue)
<Sera> * Si sends arrow through a ripple he makes through the other end.
<Sera> * Michelle
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander tries to leap out of the way, keeping the arm in place
<AquaKoala> *Jade super speeds to move Xander away frm the attacks
<Chain> 6*Kitty ripples behind him and fires
<Sera> * Si rolls fire from where she is along the ground to bust up at his ankles.
<DeathStar> 6* Kitty blasts the device from behind as he focuses his ripples and his hand is being frozen, and then upward, and damages it. IT explodes and he vanishes in a ripple feedback
<DeathStar> 6* His body distorting
<DeathStar> 6*Butterfly and Mute turn away. The Emperor girl aims her spector at Kitty, aiming to take her over
<Sera> Michelle> "...That's gonna leave a mark."
<Chain> 6*Kitty socks her
<DeathStar> <Taiga> If he lives, he'll think twice
<DeathStar> 6* She falls over, KOed
<Sera> * MIchelle aims a stun arrow at the Emperor girl and fires.
<DeathStar> 6* The Emperor girl defeated.
<DeathStar> 6* She runs over to the bloodied mess that is Lorelei
<Chain> 6*Kitty takes the sceptor
<Sera> * Michelle then runs over to check on the bloody Lorelri.
<AquaKoala> *Jade pants and falls over
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander holds his head, but hugs Jade lightly "Thanks.
<Chain> 6*Ros hugs Morrigan
<AquaKoala> *Jade is snoring
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka huffs, swiping, then makes a face at the mars on the blade from explosions
<DeathStar> 6* At Ouka's feet, due to a GM error
<DeathStar> 6* Is the ripple device, damaged
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> ... I need more training..
<Sera> * Si frowns and pants hard, she moves over to help Michelle.
<kalonZombie> 6*Xander and Gor pick up Jade
<Chain> 6*Kitty picks up the emperor girl and moves to Lore and Taiga
<Sera> Si> "Someone see if the base defenses are still on."
<Sera> Si> "We may need to turn them off."
<Chain> <Kitty> sounds like a job for Gor
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga eyes Lorelei's tails cut off
<DeathStar> <Taiga> LORELEEEEEI!
<Sera> * Michelle wraps them slowly. "Now now... we might be able to regenerate them.
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei checks Lorelei's pulse, finding it weak
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga looks close to breakng
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Did I Fail my own sister...
<Chain> <Kitty> come on, we need to get her out of here
<Sera> * Michelle takes a breath, while Si checks the consoles since no one else is.
<DeathStar> 6* She lifts her up
<Nyaomi> 6Ouka kneels and holds out her hands, feeling and closes her eyes, trying to stabilize her chi flow
<DeathStar> 6* The ocnsoles are mostly destroyed in the fight
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Taiga, now's not the time for that
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga nods
<Chain> 6*Kitty opens one more ripple
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Gor
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Yeah Taiga?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> LAter wen eed to hack the camera footage to see all their faces besides the one that taunted us

<DeathStar> <X> Del!
<DeathStar> 6* She hugs him
<AquaKoala> *Del winces from the hug and returns it
<DeathStar> <X> I'm glad you're safe. I called Tomoe to bring Winston back here
<AquaKoala> Del> What happened?
<DeathStar> 6* She turns back, a list of numbers out on a counter
<AquaKoala> *Del looks over at it
<DeathStar> <X> I was attacked by their version of me. I killed her. After all, I'm the Ultimate Weapon.
<DeathStar> 6* It has Tomoe's number
<DeathStar> 6* As well as other friends where Tomoe might be
<DeathStar> 6 *X sits down in a salon chair, peering at Del over
<DeathStar> <X> What happened to you
<AquaKoala> *Del moves over and looks at the numbers "I got shot with a railgun, I think"
<DeathStar> 6* X nods at the numbers. "I had to make sure I got Winston to her. It would have been bad if I didn't, so I was calling all over."
<AquaKoala> Del> Don't you have Tomoe's number in your datapad?
<DeathStar> 6* X rises and opens up Del's coat and examines his wounds
<DeathStar> <X> Destroyed in the fight.
<AquaKoala> Del> Ah.
<DeathStar> <X> I also rather just use my number pad. Why else would I have it?
<DeathStar> 6* X points out
<DeathStar> 6* X touches his chest, healing him
<AquaKoala> *Del blinks "I didn't know you could hea."

<DeathStar> <X> I have all the powers of the other weapons.
<DeathStar> 6* X reminds him
<DeathStar> 6* Snottily
<DeathStar> <X> Granted you should see a real healer. That is not as good as Cadeuceus
<AquaKoala> *Del nods "The base got attacked"
<DeathStar> 6* X moves to the window, glancing out, looking lost in thought, then peers back, frowning
<DeathStar> <X> Wasn't the school there today?
<AquaKoala> *Del nods
<DeathStar> <X> Then you wait here for Winston. I will go.
<DeathStar> 6* X moves to go
<AquaKoala> Del> I'll just call Tomoe and have her watch Winnie *Del moves to follow her, getting his datapad out to call her
<AquaKoala> *Del stops and fires at X rapidly
<AquaKoala> Del> HOW DID YOUR PHONE BREAK IF YOU ANSWERED IT
<DeathStar> 6* X forms a ripple to deflect it and turns toward Delano, looking annoyed
<DeathStar> <X> Another imposter.
<DeathStar> 6* She forms her holy arrows
<AquaKoala> Del> You answered your datapad when I called *Del dodges sluggishly, still calling Tomoe

<DeathStar> Epilogue 1
<DeathStar> *2 days later*
<DeathStar> 6* John slowly recovers thanks to Key, and Lorelei remains comatose. Cheryl, Aurica, and Taiga staying with her. The shield around the city slowly begins to get installed. Vodka finally begins to awaken, and her healing power seems to be gone for now, a fallbnack of her damage and move, she reveals. (cont)
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl also reveals to Erevis and the others what she learned and what is out there, so they can decide what to make of it, and after getting home, X begins to use her vacation to study up new things, deciding it's time to learn new things after being succesful in the salon business and getting beat around by another her, she claims, scouting the city for a new business that is 'her' (cont)
<DeathStar> 6* So far there also no information the other weapons, though scans were taken by the Strikers indicating they may, MAY be alternate versions of the previous ones, possiblely brought back somehow, leaving many questions over the upcoming weeks as Erevis makes plans to ask the Senate to get ready for war. What this will bring, as the groups get healed, Taiga gets her Zodiac ready, and there's no weapons ready? Who knows
