Reality Strikers Session 22

Session Start: Tue Mar 11 23:39:55 2014
Session Ident: #RealityStrikersSession22
* Now talking in #RealityStrikersSession22
<Seraphna> Date: 10-608.9.7 (Feb. 20th for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> Erevis calls a meeting of the PAX senate, here she discusses the possibility of going to war. She explains about the possible correlations between all the previous threats that have come on the PAX and the Illium, and uses her right to secure the fleet for 30 days to investigate. She leaves the meeting for the Senators to begin their month long debate as to whether or not the
<Seraphna> Suisen Empire will go to war. Before the meeting, she brought Shretrav into to ask her about the suspicious divvying of technology to planets along the Illium column, and after the meeting, Shretrav is left to consider the possibilities.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.10 (Feb. 23rd for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> While Wind goes through a Montage with Miyuki to train her to be a proper reality goddess, the Base works on the finishing touches to it's recovery. John returns to duty, with Lorelei who looks like she could still use some sick leave after losing her tail. Tess arrives at the base with her daughter and the Bennets to inspect the troops. She thanks everyone for their efforts
<Seraphna> and asks those involved in the fight what they think they could need in the coming months. The answers are fairly what one might expect, more ships for the fleet, replenishing the soldiers they lost in the attack and Tabetha asking for more help with R&D to create weapons against the Illium.
<Seraphna> After which, she steps into an office with John to talk and Angela chats up those still around. This is when Kerry Fisher steps in to check on everyone, expressing worry over the attacks. She also announces that the New EarthGov movement is stepping up their efforts, needing to tie up quite a bit of resources for a few weeks to finish moving onto their new world. Angela lets
<Seraphna> this go with a smile and a nod, and Kerry hints that in the future, New EarthGov might even come around to help them in the coming days.
<Seraphna> At the School, the Zodiac meet again and she unlocks Ros' gift, the ability to change her face or make other people see her as someone they know, allowing them to blend in or gain access to places much easier. Taiga remarks on having trouble finding Michelle's talent, as the two don't know each other very well. She then begins to drill them hard, pushing them all to better
<Seraphna> efforts.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.15 (Feb. 28th for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> Erevis discusses the new effort with the others. Ao sends out ships to begin search and survalliance, the Iron Paw among them. Everyone putting their work into the effort. The family begs Erevis to take it easy to not put the baby at risk. Darien lets them all know about the efforts of the others searching for answers, including Ben Carmichael looking into those who attacked
<Seraphna> the base.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.19 (March 4th for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> Cheryl calls her Strikers into a meeting. Red Team absent, declining to come due to being busy. Cheryl then lets them know what's up and the need to investigate in Alternate to discover what the Illium might be up to and indeed to get evidence that the Illium are moving for the PAX. Members of Blue and Gold team up and head out. There they attempt to learn from Ao, Erevis and
<Seraphna> Baky anything they can and don't find much at all. Aurica, who volunteered to lead the team, decides they're getting nowhere and has the team board the Interceptor to get their own answers.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.21 (March 6th for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> In Wind's Reality, John pours over reports on a pyramid in Egypt which seems to be vanishing and reappearing in different locations. A team of the military out looking into it. Elayne sits with him and Seraphna tries to give some ideas on why they can't pin it down. She then tries to comfort John who seems too focused on the pyramid to even notice the worry of his wives.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.23
<Seraphna> Taiga's team runs drills both with Mechs and a Ground crew, racing to see which team can complete their objectives first. After showing off their abilities to each other, Taiga using a spiritual targetting power, the ground team wins the race. Ben Carmichael sits in the distance, watching them and observing.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.26 (March 11th for Alt/ClasS)
<Seraphna> Erevis and Shretrav meet to discuss things, mainly how it seems that the worlds that were given extra tech may indeed be influenced by the Illium. We also learn that Yasha was away attending to her estate and will soon return for the voting. Athena leaves at the end to prepare for her concert to encourage people ready to go to war.
<Seraphna> In the Alternate reality, Aurica's team comes out at the Light Gate point to find that the advanced fleet is already there. They muse on what it could all mean, and who the Illium actually are, when they recall some things about the destroyed future reality that Sammael supposedly ended when she thrust the Rune Blade into the time portal. There are three survivors in Prime
<Seraphna> that might know some things that they can give light to. However, just as they come to this conclusion, the Illium ships move on them to fire. Aurica calls for a reality jump and they phase just as Hyperspace hits their unshielded ship.
<Seraphna> Cheryl wakes up in Prime, feeling what may be the death of her daughter. She sends out a team to search for the Interceptor.
<Seraphna> 10-608.9.30 (March 15th for Alt/Class)
<Seraphna> On Earth, X wakes up screaming in the middle of the night, something she has not done in years. In the mirror she discovers the scars on her neck and tummy are gone. She doens't know if she's the clone or the real X, and she's pissed at the Weapons for fucking with her.
<Seraphna> On the PAX, the Senate is given their evidence, transmissions from the Interceptor's black box on it's final flight, showing the Illium are on the move. The Senate votes yes, and the Suisen Empire is going to war. In Medical, Mem is in a coma having managed to save herself and Katrina, the others whereabouts unknown.
<Seraphna> In the legrange point of the Light Gate, the Illium fleet begins to move, some heading for Alternate planets, while others phase into Prime Reality. THe fleet is on the move, and they pass by the wreckage of the Interceptor... which is missing it's escape pods.

And Now...

<DeathStar> March 16th, 2241
<DeathStar> Location: Mega City, Earth (Classic Reality) - intro to follow
<DeathStar> 6* John is in Wind's base, glancing at reports from the Special Unit ( http://www.thealienwars.com/ALT/INFO/ClassList.php ) that Ire runs, as they get information back from the military in the desert. He rubs his face, leaning back in his seat as he muses, and glances at the reports on Aurica's disappearance and thought to be demise
<Seraphna> * Elayne runs a hand through her hair, glancing at them.
<Seraphna> * Seraphna peeks in on them, peering a bit worriedly.
<DeathStar> <John> Seems like a lot is going on lately. We are likely going to war.
<Seraphna> Elayne> "It was going to happen eventually. These Illium don't seem restless, or the type to just let us keep victory."
<DeathStar> <John> No way it won't spill over into Classic, especially since the Illiums' hands were in things here too
<DeathStar> <John> We should warn Ire to keep the Special Unit on full alert.
<DeathStar> 6* He pauses as a report comes in about the pyramid. Hovering his hand over the report, his eyes skim it. He then grabs his coat
<Seraphna> Seraphna> "We'll be doing all we can to ready defense."
<DeathStar> <John> Hold the fort
<DeathStar> 6* He moves to go
<Seraphna> * Elayne blinks and follows him.
<Seraphna> Seraphna> "That's what I do."
<Seraphna> Seraphna> "Don't you want your team with you?"
<DeathStar> <John> Both of you. I want to check this out alone while the military has it pegged. Elayne, you stay here and field Red Team duty incase Cheryl or Warren calls them
<DeathStar> <John> And no, it seems selfish to tie them up on something I want
<Seraphna> * Elayne and Seraphna look at each other, both growing worried.
<Seraphna> Elayne> "It'll be dangerous alone."
<DeathStar> 6* John checks his wrist comm unit so he can be tracked
<DeathStar> <John> There's a unit out there, I'll let them babysit me.
<DeathStar> 6* He moves out without another word
<Seraphna> Seraphna> "I could send Lucas with you..."
<DeathStar> <John> I'll be fine!
<Seraphna> * They look at each other again.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Vatican City, Earth (Prime) - 9.31 - same day
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles chews on her stick as she reads the scans from the previous night
<DeathStar> 6* X sits in a room, alone, while Cuddles and Vodka are outside it with Del
<AquaKoala> *Del waits patiently, rubbing his head
<Seraphna> * Peter puts on a shirt, yawning a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Prime John is there, arms crossed, leaning on a wall
<DeathStar> <John> So?
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Well, we used various information Del gave us to test her memories. For the most part she answered it all right - she fumbled things or got somethings a little off. For most people I would say that falls into normalcy
<AquaKoala> Del> And for X?
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Not everyone is going to remember everything of their lives together - but Weapons and Dragoons are different. I can't say. X was never tested to see if she has perfect memory. For example, Cheryl has perfect memory. But Zephyr, nope.
<DeathStar> <Vodka> However, being the ultimate weapon, it is being likely she should
<AquaKoala> *Del sighs
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> The surest way is to just ask her. If she says yes, she hangs herself
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> But that could mean she was damaged in her fight.
<DeathStar> <Vodka> But that leads us to the physical descrepacies
<AquaKoala> *Del nods
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles and Vodka bring up the scan of the current X and the X after she gave birth to Winston.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> No signs of her giving birth. Either her healing removed it all, which meant she had to heal a lot of damage quickly.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Or she never did
<Seraphna> Peter> "Is it possible she's simply accessing a weapon's powers that had superior healing? I know Caduceus could heal others, but..."
<AquaKoala> Del> So, if she isn't X, what does that mean?
<AquaKoala> Del> It
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> *peers at Peter* That's what I was saying. If she did that, it could be she removed the traces of the birthing. The only reason for that is if she was near death
<AquaKoala> Del> Well she was
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Yet she isn't being forth coming, and I can't imagine her meeting with Del at her salon a few hours later if she did a massive healing
<Seraphna> Peter> "Of course, the other possibility, is that this is the other X, brain washed as a sleeper agent so we don't go looking for the real X."
<Seraphna> Peter> "The same people who made the Weapons were pretty good with that, they brain washed a few people in their time."
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Da, that is a possibility. *they point* There are possibilities pointing to that Peter. The bone lines are different in some ways, subltlely, indicating less wear and tear.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Yes. But the fact is she's too perfect.
<AquaKoala> Del> But it's not like she hasn't had ample time to kill me or throw us of more
<AquaKoala> *off
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> She acts and is X. In fact, she seems ready to execute herself if we say she's fake
<Seraphna> Peter> "Brain switch?"
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> If it's a brain switch to the other X, that seems rather pointless.
<AquaKoala> *Del rises and moves into X's room
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> What would that achieve?
<Seraphna> Peter> "One of the weapons could possess people. A power goes a little weird and bam."
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles stick her stick in her mouth
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Hm.
<Seraphna> Peter> "Just shooting possibilities out there, unfortunately X has so many powers and the weapons vary so much, it's hard to say what could have happened."
<DeathStar> 6* X looks up at him. "So, am I me, or not?
<AquaKoala> Del> You're you.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Well, we have tested them all before. Vodka has them on record
<AquaKoala> *Del moves over to sit next to her
<DeathStar> 6* X peers to the side, as if dubious still. "I see..."
<DeathStar> <X> I keep going over the battle with the other me and I cannot remember the conclusion fully
<DeathStar> <X> Just the end result
<Seraphna> Peter> "I forget... the alternate reality, do the residents there give off a different reality signature?"
<Aqua> Del> You're the ultimate weapon, you wouldn't of lost.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Yes. Normally they do. We tested for that and so far her signature is our's.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> But they'd think of that
<DeathStar> <Vodka> We are doing tests to overcome such a false signature
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles goes to a chalk board and writes' X's powers
<Seraphna> * Peter nods a bit and frowns. "That's assuming she's that and not the creation of some Neo-V or Neo-Hermes."
<Seraphna> *VI
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> She can form blades of energy - Weapon I, she can calculate angles and blast attacks off them, Weapon II, she has absurd strength and damage she can take, Weapon III
<Chain> 6*Kitty peers from a hiding spot
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> She can form ripples, Weapon IV, she can heal herself and others, Weapon V
<Aqua> Del> If you weren't you you wouldn't of won. So you're you.
* AquaKoala has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 194 seconds)
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> She can infect others with a poison, Weapon VII, she can blast out hearing, Weapon VIII, she can phase out, Weapon IX
* Aqua has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection)
* Aqua has joined #RealityStrikersSession22
<Seraphna> Peter> "Isn't there one more? Chad's prototype?"
<DeathStar> <X> Yes. Unless I met another me that wanted iot more. But no - you're right. I have more dear to me
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Chad was II.
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles moves off
<Aqua> Del> So you're uou
<Aqua> *Del kisses her forehead "You probably just healed too mich after the fight
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> The holy arrows comes from Seraphim, Weapon VIII. My bad
<DeathStar> 6* She moves all the numbers back one
<DeathStar> 6* Putting poison at VI
<DeathStar> <X> Yes. *She nods, looking relieved*
<DeathStar> <Vodka> *seems to be musing hard*
<Seraphna> Peter> "Don't have to be successive..." *he rubs his head, trying to recall something and shrugs* "She knows fully about the kids at any rate... which what we've learned suggests she wouldn't otherwise."
<Seraphna> Peter> "One of the kids mentiond Ripple was shocked that there was another Ripple user, they didn't seem to know about Angelos' superkids or Kitty."
<Aqua> *Del kisses her forehead
<DeathStar> <Vodka> There may be one way to test.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Or mnaybe shocked that Kitty could do it
<Seraphna> * Peter raises an eyebrow curiously.
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Kitty's bone marrow could possilely verify if X is X. No way to fake that type of level of DNA
<Seraphna> Peter> "Ouch, well... it'd be a surefire answer right?"
<Seraphna> Peter> "I mean, the next thing I can think of is putting her under and making our Psions probe around. But you know how that can go."
<Chain> 6*Kitty makes a dark expression from where she's hiding
<Aqua> *Winston also makes a dark expression
<Aqua> *And burps
<Chain> 6*Kitty looks down at Winston and smiles softly
<DeathStar> 6* X hugs Del
<DeathStar> <X> For now I think it best if I remain here under observation though, Delano
<Chain> <Kitty> we have to work on your technique a little
<Seraphna> Peter> "Well... up to the kid and her parents."
<Aqua> *Del returns the hug "If you're okay with it."
<DeathStar> 6* She rests her head on his shoulder, hiding her expression
<DeathStar> <X> Yes. I can still do my work and come back here to be observed
<Aqua> Del> Couldn't you have someone run the shop?
<DeathStar> <X> I will ask Tomoe if she thinks she has learned enough I suppose
<DeathStar> <X> Despite her love of knives
<Chain> 6*Kitty climbs out of hiding
<Aqua> *Del nods
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka goes to send Del the suggestion and to think of it, since bone marrows hurt
<Seraphna> Peter> "Oh hello Kitty." *he seems surprised, but he might be feining it*
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles moves off to go back to PAX, afraid what Ethan will do with full power
<Aqua> *Winston gives Peter the Giblin stare
<DeathStar> <X> You know our daughter is here
<Chain> <Kitty> Hello Sir
<DeathStar> 6* X sounds somewhat proud
<Seraphna> Peter> "Think about it, it's a painful process, we don't want you doing something you'd rather not do."
<Aqua> Del> Yeah, she's getting better at sneaking
<Chain> 6*Kitty then carries Winnie to see their parents
<DeathStar> 6* X greets Kitty
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Aqua> *Del smiles and waves
<DeathStar> Location: Asteroid C
<DeathStar> 6* Classic Katrina sits in the conference room when she learns that John and the pyramid seem to be missing again. She glances at the report, then at Warren, and Elayne
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> He did what?
<Seraphna> Elayne> Went to investigate the pyramid alone... with soldiers of course...
<DeathStar> <Warren> I sent a message to the Nue Mansion to ask Wind if he knew anything about the pyramid and he said he purposely made sure that no signs of the motenks should be back
<DeathStar> <Warren> In the event that this is something to do with Illiums, or a reality come back, I'm sending the Red Team in
<DeathStar> 6* Warren leans on the table, apparantly in charge again after Aurica's incident
<DeathStar> 6* Leviathan nods
<Seraphna> Elayne> "Well they are... and alright."
<Seraphna> * Elayne seems glad at the officual excuse to go chasing after her husband. She taps her datapad and calls all of Red team for the mission. XX, Micah, Lisa, Harupia, James and Marshall since the rest are present / not on the team anymore.
* AquaKoala has joined #RealityStrikersSession22
<DeathStar> 6* C. Katrina sits in her seat, waiting for the others to arrive, musinhg
<AquaKoala> *James yawns, coming and sipping a cup of coffee
<Seraphna> * Cameron steps out from his lab and Alt. Lisa steps out from the Alternate door. They both head over.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps out to join Darien in debating what to do about Interceptor being gone
<Jackieness> <XX> *arrives in the conference room*
<Chain> 6*Marshall sighs forelornly
<Seraphna> * Elayne peers around, giving Harupia a moment longer, though already looking impatient.
<DeathStar> <Leviathan> Let us travel to your reality now and go to this pyramid
<DeathStar> 6* She puts on clothing suited for desert travel
<AquaKoala> *James pats Marshall's shoulder "I know, it's rough not being the only cyborg anymore"
<Seraphna> * Elayne nods. "We'll brief on the way, my mother has a shuttle ready."
<Jackieness> <XX> "So my current boyfriend doing soemthing brave and foolhardy again?
<AquaKoala> *James pulls on a desert cloak
<DeathStar> 6* As they all travel through the hallway into the classic reality into the Wind mansion, passing various nice paintings and stuff of the President, down outside to the shuttle
<DeathStar> 6* C. Katrina looks worried as she steps into the shuttle and sits down and Leviathan takes a seat. Katrina puts on a typical desert hat and desert traveling clothing
<Seraphna> * Seraphna waits for them having to stay as the only leader around at the moment, but she seems to have done everything to egress their mission she could.
<Seraphna> * Elayne gets aboard as to Cameron and Lisa.
<Jackieness> <XX> *boards the shuttle and straps in*
<Chain> 6*Marshall whacks James
<Chain> <Marshall> thats not whats bothering me
<Seraphna> * A lunarian man who looks to be in his early twenties, with blonde hair and blue eyes steps on and takes a seat with them.
<AquaKoala> James> What's up then ? *He rubs his head
<Seraphna> * Elayne preps the shuttle for take off.
<Chain> <Marshall> I cant drink tea or coffee like a man, I have to order all of them cold and blended and drink it through a goddamn straw
<Chain> 6*Marshall huffs looking like Raiden with a mouth plate
<AquaKoala> James> Because of you're mouth thing-y?
<Seraphna> * Elayne makes sure they're all secured and launches, heading out towards the location. Seraphna keeping an eye on the reports to help them find it when it appears next.
<Chain> <Marshall> yes
<AquaKoala> *James pats his shoulder "That sucks"
<Chain> <Marshall> and dont think I didnt notice you plant those crazy straws
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> *Studies MArshall, but doesn't offer to use Class technology on him since it might offend*
<AquaKoala> James> I though they might cheer you up
<DeathStar> 6* Leviathan taps her trident to a tune only she can hear as they fly over the ocean
<DeathStar> <Leviathan> I think Harupia will miss this battle
<Seraphna> Elayne> "We need to be careful about this, the Motenks aren't to be trifled with."
<Chain> <Marshall> they dont fit in the mouth plate
<AquaKoala> James> Why not ask someone to make the hole bigger?
<Seraphna> * The man nods quietly, watching the others, Lucas McCormick has a set jaw at the moment.
<Jackieness> <XX> "Ok, let me ask... but what exactly are Motenks? I didn't ask before so as not to have an awkward moment with John."
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit, they begin to arrive over the desert, which looks less Nazish by 100%
<Seraphna> * Elayne keeps flying, she starts to speak twice, but then coughs. "Katrina?"
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> A race created of beings that are complete black with tails. They were a race created to bring about the return of Atheos and Theos, "God" and "Satan" that would wipe clean humanity and start over all life in our reality. We later learned they were failsafes planted into all realities by the Progenitors
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> Anyway, you could say the Motenks are a race of creatures that are the right hand of the Progenitors that rise up, take over other races, and then bring about what people worship as God and Satan
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> Wind of course made our reality minus Atheos and Theos
<Seraphna> Lucas> "They annihilated Lunaris."
<AquaKoala> James> The moon?
<Seraphna> Lucas> "Lunaris, it's the planet the Lunarians come from. My Mom and Sister's home planet."
<AquaKoala> James> oh, sorry if that was offensive
<DeathStar> <Leviathan> So they literally are born from other races? <C. Katrina> From what I can tell, their genes take over others'
<Seraphna> * Elayne just nods, it's how she died in the old reality. She starts checking for signs and indications of the pyramid.
<Seraphna> Elayne> "John is infected... we had to give him some of Aya's DNA to bring him back from the brink of death during the struggle to take back London."
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> We later learned even killing God and Satan led to our reality dying out as no new souls were reborn, so Wind made your realities. *Referring to Prime and Alt* Ours was reborn in a joint effort with your Cheryl
<DeathStar> 6* Below they see pieces of the military unit and red all over
<DeathStar> 6* There's still no sign of the pyramid
<Seraphna> * Elayne curses in Tsivrixsh and peers around, bringing them a little lower, looking for it. She checks with their other efforts to keep and eye out for it.
<Seraphna> Lucas> "Dad..."
<Jackieness> <XX> "...looks like it got ugly..."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina seems to be musing to herself ,like she ahs a theory about the Motenks and appearing in the Trinity when they shouldn't
<Seraphna> * Elayne shakes her head, shivering. "He can't be dead..."
<DeathStar> 6* There seems to be no signh, but perhaps the corpses have clues
<Seraphna> * Elayne brings them in for a landing.
<Nyaomi> 6Katrina feels a nip on her side
<Seraphna> * Elayne rises after they land and lowers the ramp, stepping out to investigate the bodies.
<DeathStar> 6* C, Katrina jerks, and whips out her sabre slashing at the area
<DeathStar> <C. Katrina> I'm under attack
<AquaKoala> *James reels
<Seraphna> * Lucas blinks as he starts to rise and holds out a hand towards Katrina's area, silver light appearing. "What?"
<Nyaomi> 6In tiny kit fox mode, Hisame crinches, leaping away from the blade
<AquaKoala> *James catche sit
<AquaKoala> *catches it
<DeathStar> 6* C. Katrina goies to slash it again
<Seraphna> Lucas> "Stow away?"
<DeathStar> C. Katrina> It may be what killed them
<Chain> <Marshall> a fox?
<Nyaomi> 6Hisame squeaks and leaps to the side, konning
<Jackieness> <XX> "...that's not what I was expecting."
<Seraphna> * Elayne, seemingly in a trance, is looking over the bodies, Lucas frowns. "It's a little fox...?"
<Seraphna> * Cameron sighs and pulls out a box, he starts moving towards the fox with it. Lisa frowns and looks wary.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina scans her nipped area, sabre in one hand, her long red hair flowintgt about her
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Capture it for analysis
<Chain> 6*Marshall nets it
<Seraphna> * Cameron holds out the specimen box.
<DeathStar> 6* The bodies all seem to have strange cells in them similiar to Motenk, and seem to be regenerating.
<DeathStar> 6* Leviathan walks out of the shuttle, peering them over
<Chain> 6*Marshall dumps the fox in
<Seraphna> * Elayne frowns and pulls out gear, using TK to gather a sample.
<Jackieness> <XX> steps out of the shuttle and looks around*
<Nyaomi> 6Hisame pops into girl form
<Seraphna> Elayne> Conversion?
<Nyaomi> <Hisame> Jeez...
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina has moved outside
<DeathStar> 6* She kneels, studying the bodies
<Nyaomi> <Hisame> Katrinnnaaaa ;A;
<Seraphna> * Cameron sighs. "You know you're following the wrong Katrina, right?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina studies the bodies, lifting her head a moment thinking a girl is calling her, then goes back to studying.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Something seems to be turning these bodies into Motenks alright
<DeathStar> <Katrina> The pryamid must be nearby
<Jackieness> <XX> "Could it be underground?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> That's good question
<Seraphna> Elayne> "Yeah... maybe it really is cloaked. Or..." *she blinks*
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at XX with a nod and sets up her datapad, scanning the ground with it
<Seraphna> * Elayne peers down.
<DeathStar> l6* Leviathan leans on her trident, panting, wishing Harupia came to fan her
<Seraphna> Elayne> "Maybe the Pyramids appearing are sort of... hatches?"
<Chain> 6*Marshall punches in his airconditioner and relaxes
<AquaKoala> *James deadpans and tries to stand near Marshall
<Nyaomi> <Hisame> I-- I am
<Nyaomi> <Hisame> Wrong Katrina..!?
<Seraphna> * Cameron nods. "Looks like you volunteer for the mission though." *he grabs her and drags her along after them outside*
<Chain> 6*Marshall blows cool air on James
<DeathStar> <Katrina> There is something below us
<Nyaomi> <Hisame> Hey! Hhheeeeyy!
<DeathStar> <Katrina> But I can't read what it is
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina eyes the mysterious girl, squinting and scans her
<Seraphna> * Lucas steps out and then rises into the air to get some height, casually flying up and looking around.
<Jackieness> <XX> "
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She is not the source of the infection
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh - wait she's one of the kitsune
<DeathStar> 6* She turns back
<Jackieness> <XX> "Want me to go digging up? The fast and firepower-friendly way?"
<Seraphna> Elayne> "What if the entire deseert is hiding some kind of huge Motenks structure under it?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I do not think that is the case - it would come up on our readings easily then
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at XX
<DeathStar> <Katrina> There's a lot of sand, it might sink back in if you are not carefulo
<Seraphna> * Lucas looks over the sandscape for wormsign... or something burrowing about.
<DeathStar> 6* Lucas sees beautiful sand
<AquaKoala> James> What about a guide rope?
<Jackieness> <XX> "That depends. Hit fast and hot... instant glass."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I guess you can try
<DeathStar> 6* She turns to James
<AquaKoala> James> We'll tie a rope to Marshall and the ship so we can get back out
<Seraphna> Lucas> "Worse plans have worked before. I say we at least opt for the ancient X1 strategy."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> LEts...see how XX does...
<Jackieness> <XX> "Point me a good spot and clear out of the target area. I've been wanting to test out my new upgrades anyway."
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina points in front of the bodies
<Seraphna> Lucas> "That's... 'Don't die. Whatever you do, no dying.'"
<DeathStar> <<Katrina> This seems to be where the pyramid is
<Seraphna> * Elayne peers over that area and rubs her head.
<Chain> <Marshall> why am I getting tied to
<Jackieness> <XX> "Then hang back..." *does a super jump over the pyramid spot and then fires straight down at full blast*
<Chain> 6*part of his armor making a whiiiiiiring sound
<Seraphna> * Cameron and Lisa keep out of the way. Lucas already up high and away. Elayne watches, biting her lower lip again.
<AquaKoala> *James backs up
<Chain> 6*Marshall backs up
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina falls over as the sand is blasted and dust flies over them all, making a smnall sandstorm, engulfing them

<DeathStar> 6* X walks along the ruins of Em's resturant between tests and slides down the hole
<DeathStar> 6* She seems to be musing to herself
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka meanwhile awaits Del's answer to Kitty's bone marrow, resting, and John is overseeing New EarthGov's final launches
<Chain> <Kitty> I'll do it
<AquaKoala> *Del nods and rubs her back, answering Vodka
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Are you sure? Bone marrow drawing is really painful...
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Da. Bring her in tomorrow for test; will take a bit
<DeathStar> 6* X kneels and blows away some mud and eyes a sewer drain
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka clicks off her comm and puts a bag of Vodka on her forehead
<DeathStar> 6* She peers into the drain and sees dried blood and dog hair
<Seraphna> Peter> "Feeling alright?"
<DeathStar> <X> ... 6* She lifts a datapad and goes to comm Del, straining a moment and then taps it, warning him Weapon IX is on the loose
<AquaKoala> *Del blinks, reeling and calling John and Peter
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Am missing powers, but at least can make pills and surgeries still
<Chain> 6*Kitty blinks
<Chain> <Kitty> daddy?
<AquaKoala> Del> Mom found something
<AquaKoala> *Del pats her shoulder
<Chain> <Kitty> where is she?
<AquaKoala> Del> Not sure, I think she wanted to look at Em's resturant
<Seraphna> * Peter nods and kisses her softly. "Will they come back eventually?"
<Chain> 6*Kitty nods
<Chain> <Kitty> We cant leave her on her own
<AquaKoala> Del> I know, I'm trying to call Peter and John
<DeathStar> 6* John answers
<DeathStar> <John> ARe you certain?
<Chain> <Kitty> Peter is probably making gross kissy faces with Vodka
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka kisses him
<Seraphna> * Peter picks up. "Yo?"
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Am not knowing
<AquaKoala> Del> X said so, I doubt she would lie about that
<Seraphna> * Peter nods to VOdka and frowns a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* X climbs up the hill and moves to the spot with the lamp post
<DeathStar> 6* She trails her hand along it, playing things in her head
<AquaKoala> *Del moves to get his car
<DeathStar> <X> I stood over your broken neck and dead body and destroyed your body
<Chain> 6*Kitty tries to follow
<DeathStar> <X> But you gutted me. Right? I had no wound in my stomach when I Went to meet Delano
<DeathStar> <X> *She kneels, anaylizing the scene* And where is the pieces
<DeathStar> <X> No charred outline
<DeathStar> <X> Did you let me think I won?
<AquaKoala> *Del gets in and lets Kitty in
<DeathStar> 6* John moves to Lore and Josephine
<Chain> 6*Kitty climbs in, holding Winnie
<DeathStar> <John> Seems that one weapons we thought we got is back on the board, Weapon Spirit
<DeathStar> 6* He puts the girl's face and her dog back up
<AquaKoala> *Del looks over "Maybe we should drop Winston off"
<Seraphna> * Peter nodds a bit and kisses Vodka's cheek. "I'll be back."
<DeathStar> <John> That leaves the weapon that self-destructed below. If she's one of the nine, or a new one, and the school kids
<DeathStar> <Vodka> Da, okay
<Chain> 6*Kitty makes a face and nods
<Chain> <Kitty> I'll ripple him to somewhere safe
<DeathStar> 6* X walks along into an alley, peering up at something
<Chain> 6*Ama blinks as Winnie gets Rippled to her breasts
<AquaKoala> *Del nods and starts driving for the resturant
<DeathStar> 6* The two arrive at night
<DeathStar> 6* X comes walking back out of the alley to meet them
<Seraphna> * PEter moves out and grabs a bike, driving for Del's location after throwing on his gear and coat.
<AquaKoala> *Del parks, wearing his gear this time
<DeathStar> 6* X nods and waves them to the crater, pointing at the sewer hole she uncovered
<Chain> 6*Kitty adjusts her Clemintine hat
<Chain> 6*and takes her pack
<AquaKoala> *Del moves over "So what did you find?"
<DeathStar> <X> Dried blood and dog hair. She clearly survived Em's blast by crawling in there
<AquaKoala> *Del makes a face and sighs
<DeathStar> <X> From there she likely used her small size to crawl through the pipe works
<DeathStar> <X> Being over a month she likely had to get patched up somewhere in the city
<AquaKoala> Del> So she could be anywhere by now
<Seraphna> * PEter joins them quietly and peers over things.
<DeathStar> <X> There was quite a bit of blood
<Chain> 6*Kitty kneels to see how small
<DeathStar> 6* Kitty would see the size is bigh enough for her - this Spirit is her age
<Seraphna> Peter> "UNless we go down there and find a body, then she really could be anywhere, maybe even anyone."
<Chain> 6*Kitty crawls in
<DeathStar> <X> Kitty Giblin!
<AquaKoala> *Del reels "Kitty!"
<DeathStar> 6* X tenses
<Chain> <Kitty> shut up unless you really want to give me away
<DeathStar> 6* Inside is slimey, but easily manuevered. more dog hair is seen up ahead
<Seraphna> * Peter lowers a light to her.
<DeathStar> <X> ... she got that from you
<AquaKoala> Del> did she just tell us to shut up?
<Chain> 6*Kitty crawls in further, barely breathing
<AquaKoala> *Del looks shocked
<DeathStar> <X> Yes.
<DeathStar> <X> Clearly from your side
<Seraphna> Peter> KId has spunk.
<DeathStar> 6* After crawling she gets to an area she can get to her feet, inside the sewer system. Dried bloood and hair is in there too, next to a ladder
<AquaKoala> *Del grumbles and sits to wait, lighting a cigarette
<DeathStar> 6* That leads to a manhole
<DeathStar> 6* X paces, like she's hiding something
<Chain> 6*Kitty climbs up but slowly eases the man hole up enough to scan
<DeathStar> 6* Kitty would see a clinic for homeless people as well as a shelter to help injuries
<Chain> 6*Kitty calls her dad
<AquaKoala> *Del answers
<AquaKoala> Del> Are you oaky?
<Chain> <Kitty> daddy, I think I know where she went 6*she whispers
<AquaKoala> Del. where
<Chain> <Kitty> the sewer leads to a man hole by a homeless clinic
