<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Warren flips through documents, having been running training room sessions the past week, especially getting newer/older recruits tested to see how well they perform and if they make the cut, even if they were in teams of the past
<w00t> 6* Kellin slowly peeks in at Warren.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren glances up slightly
<DeathStar> <Warren> Can I help you?
<Seraphna> * Lisa yawns a bit and organizes some folders.
<DeathStar> 6* Lev sits in the commons area, reading a few manuals, while Vesta has her arms crossed, silent
<w00t> <Kellin> How did I do?! 6* He steps in proper.
<w00t> 6* Marcus lays on a couch in the common area, relaxing after training.
<Seraphna> * Angela sits in the commons area, working on a datapad.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Average.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na sits next to her, handing her things to sign
<w00t> <Kellin> Your testing apparatus is clearly broken.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I will keep that in mind.
<w00t> <Kellin> Since Chad is off doing super secret things, maybe I can help you plan things!
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps out of his office, giving Kellin a deadpanned look
<w00t> <Kellin> Well you're no fun. 6* He walks along with Warren.
<w00t> <Marcus> Someone feed me. 6He calls out suddenly, letting out a sigh.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Lev, with me. *He then contacts the various leaders of each team as he moves to the entrance of the mansion*
<DeathStar> 6* Lev Peshkov hops up, stepping in line with Warren.
<Seraphna> * Angela peers up and looks over with curiosity.
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei gracefully slides out of a side office, walking with Warren
<w00t> 6* Kane tinkers in his lab working on some sort of device.
<Kemonohime> * Aschae has her eyes closed in a peaceful expression-- attached to Lorelei's leg
<Kemonohime> * Hope pokes at Kellin's side
<Sara> * Kaori moves to join the other leaders
<Chaintan> 6*Umi carries her pups; Urr, Cleo and Tana proudly
<Chaintan> 6*Hess yawns as she trudges after Kaori
<DeathStar> 6* Warren peers down at Miyuki's adopted child being in the base, then peers at Umi's children being in it
<DeathStar> 6* Clearly not pleased
<w00t> 6* Kellin glances at Hope with a confused look.
<Kemonohime> <Hope> Don't worry, he's like that with everyone. Even the ones he likes.
<DeathStar> 6* Urr and Cleo wave their hands
<w00t> <Kellin> Oh pfft, I don't care. 6* He smiles and winks.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha works in a secondary lab, since she doesn't go near the one that had the case in it now.
<Kemonohime> <Hope> ... Also the ones he dislikes. On that note...
<Kemonohime> <Hope> D-Does he hate aunt Chii..? Hm...
<w00t> 6* Kellin shrugs at that.
<Chaintan> 6*Umi wags, a happy momma agin without having to do the work
<w00t> <Kellin> Dunno. Maybe!
<Jackieness> <Myria> *is working in the labs as well*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash wanders around, having signed up
<Kemonohime> * Aschae... might actually be asleep? Dead still, simply latched on.
<w00t> 6* Kane hmms and takes a step back rubbing his chin.
<Kemonohime> <Necia> <You've been training the whole time... was there a spark to be so serious for this new team?>
<w00t> <Kane> The trigger mechanism on this emp gun keeps misfiring. Hmm.
<Chaintan> <Hess> morn--*yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn*in everyone
<DeathStar> 6* Warren eyes all the talking and just drains a pill bottle into his mouth, as if to end this leadership tour
<DeathStar> <Warren> Kaori. Lorelei.
<DeathStar> 6* He gestures, stepping up to the stairway
<Sara> * Kaori nods to him in acknowledgement
<Chaintan> 6*Hess rubs her eyes, nodding to Warren
<w00t> <Kellin> Secret leader meetings are so lame.
<Chaintan> 6*familiar heel clicks announce a familiar ice queen's arrival
<DeathStar> <Warren> I got the two Weapons you wanted, Lorelei, and assigned them to the base. They should be arriving now. 6* The elevator starts up and begins to come down. Standing there is are two women, Next Generation Weapon Truth and Wyrd. One looks youngish, with dark black hair, peering around with a scowl
<DeathStar> <Warren> I thought all of you should know, in case when the time comes, you want one of them on your team.
<Seraphna> * The other looks tall, blonde, and has a pleasent smile on her face. Practically her antithesis.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I still need to put them through the paces and debrief them
<DeathStar> <Lev> *nods quietly at his counterparts*
<w00t> 6* Marcus starts to snore loudly, having fallen asleep.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon stands behind the two weapons, keeping them in line
<Seraphna> Truth> Hello.
<Sara> * Kaori nods, listening
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Heya.
<Sara> <Kaori> Hi. I'm Kaori.
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd simply nods at Kaori
<w00t> 6* Kellin does a handstand and walks back towards the common area.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Hello, I'm Lorelei. *she reaches out, touching both of them, subtlely marking them*
<Chaintan> <Hess> I'm Hess Giblin
<Chaintan> 6*she extends her hand
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd peers at the hand, then nods at Lorelei and Hess.
<Seraphna> * Truth blinks, then smiles again. "It is nice to meet you all."
<Chaintan> 6*Hess makes a face and forces Wyrd to shake
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd makes a face. Her hand feels cold, leaving Hess feeling a little under the weather
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Weird kid./
<Sara> <Kaori> It is nice to meet you, too!
<Sara> * Kaori looks at Wyrd thoughtfully
<Chaintan> 6*Hess makes a slight face
<Chaintan> <Hess> so clammy...
<DeathStar> 6* Once the touch ends, Hess slowly feels better
<Seraphna> * Truth tilts her head and looks at Wyrd, she shrugs.
<DeathStar> <Wyrd> I didn't ask to touch. *She says softly, her voice strangely gentle*
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki peers in, each tailed curled
<Chaintan> <Hess> well thats how most say hello
<Kemonohime> * Aschae's grip stymies a little on Lorelei, shifting and twitching her ears, shivering.
<DeathStar> <Warren> When you all are done talking, Lev will debrief them and take them around. Then I need to meet you all - the leaders that is - in my conference room
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves off
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei muses, eyeing her hand, then moves off, peering at Wyrd
<Seraphna> Truth> "Nice meeting you, Mr. Carmichael."
<Sara> <Kaori> Yes, sir.
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd makes a noise, almost like a hrumph
<DeathStar> 6* She puts a bracelet on, then shakes Hess' hand again, without the feeling
<DeathStar> <Wyrd> There.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> such sour faces
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Hey Miyu.
<Kemonohime> * Aschae yawns, then hops off Lorelei, squinting as she stretches, walking by her. "... You were so cold a moment ago."
<Kemonohime> <Aschae> Walk through a fridge?
<Seraphna> * Truth blinks, her expression never seeming to lack warmth.
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd eyes Aschae, looking annoyed, and seemingly more tired with the bracelet on
<w00t> 6* Kane resumes working on the emp gun after a bit, trying to figure out doing a focused range.
<DeathStar> <Wyrd> Quit bothering me
<Kemonohime> (Though Lorelei walked off @_@)
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki snatches up Aschae
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> there you are
<Seraphna> Truth> "You can learn to control it without that..." *she watches the bracelet*
<Kemonohime> (Aschae was talking to Lore, who you said walked off, wasn't intending her to interact with Wyrd, mrr.)
<DeathStar> (Ah)
<Kemonohime> * Aschae jerks, flailing for Lorelei
<Kemonohime> <Aschae> Knew it was a bad time to wake up...
<w00t> 6* Kellin handstand walks into the mess, then pushes back up to land on his feet and starts looking for food tot ake.
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd just walks off, more annoyed at other people butting into her business
<w00t> 6* Marcus snorts after a bit and starts coughing, sitting up.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits in the conference room, with Lorelei
<Kemonohime> * Aschae closes her eyes, giving the ironic "fox expression" at Miyuki. "... Explains the chill."
<Seraphna> * Truth sighs a little and looks towards Lev.
<DeathStar> 6* Lev waves Truth to follow him, moving off camera with the Weapon Trio
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki coils a tail around her wayward daughter and walks into the conference room
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *sits on the lounge sofa with her knees drawn up*
<Sara> * Kaori joins Lorelai
<Chaintan> 6*Hess joins as well
<w00t> <Marcus> Oh god, I think I just swallowed like a jug of drool into my lungs. 6He coughs a few times, glancing from Reikana and Angela who are also in the lounge.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...they're in there deciding our fates now..."
<Chaintan> <Hess> gross
<w00t> <Marcus> Eh, it's not that big of a deal.
<Kemonohime> <Hope> *huff* I don't really feel like leading, but I hate not knowing what's going on...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren has Hess close the door as she joins to ignore the idiots outside
<w00t> 6* Kellin steps out of the mess into the lounge, a sausage in each hand.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I am planning to redraw the teams as you all know. With Cheryl still tied up for a few months with politics, and Dias likely to be busy with it as well. *he crosses out their names* And there will likely be a few people who will take this time to leave the team, even as a few people join
<DeathStar> 6* Warren studies the board, crossing out people's names he knows are quitting
<DeathStar> 6* Removing Erevis' for now, and moving her to standby
<Kemonohime> * Necia takes this time that Warren's not likely to snoop about to make one of her trips to the island.
<kalonZombie> 6*If Em is joining, Hale will join, same with Mi'Na if Angela joins, but Ash is a definite and Hess' boyfriend is considering joining, wanting to speak to Warren in private beforehand
<Sara> * Kaori nods slowly
<Chaintan> <Hess> I know mom is taking the time to just be there for momma Jade so she might just be on standby
<Seraphna> * Angela never quit! So of course she has joined.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren crosses off Hale for now, since Em hasn't offically joined, and Hale runs off with other teams
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale staaaaayed, I just completely forgot since I hardly used him ;A;
<DeathStar> <Warren> Anyway. *he leans back* We'll find out who stayed more later. John, Zephyr, and the three Weapons, Lev, Truth, and Wyrd are here, as well as a few other faces.
<DeathStar> <Warren> As you know, I am planning to shift away from Generational teams. You all have proven yourselves, Kaori, and Lore's team has always been able to handle themselves
<DeathStar> <Warren> So I know, you and Hess can order people of any age just fine.
<Sara> <Kaori> Thank you, sir. *she nods*
<Seraphna> * Lisa Cameron has signed up, while all the rest of Sera's people, Angelos, Angela, Jennifer, Tabetha, Si'Chii, An'Mi, Michelle, Reese and Angel haven't left either.
<Chaintan> <Hess> thank you sir
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale, Ash, and Mi'Na nod
<DeathStar> <Warren> We're going to move to three teams still, but we're moving them about to combat the threats that are popping up. One team will stay here in the underground base. Our network here is tied into the computers of almost every government computer that is legal, as well as the PAX's. This the nerve center of our operations. Plus with all the teleporters into various homes, and the PAX, we can respond faster, so this can be considered home base.
<DeathStar> *Warren turns back, since the leaders are the only ones in the conference right now*
<DeathStar> <Warren> I will take this post most likely, but I won't be here forever, so if one of you all want it, you can work under me for a time as my XO. And we'll build a team from the names listed. Likely we'll be taking the brunt of the harder missions.
<DeathStar> <Warren> The second team will have the mobile base in the flying ship.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods, considering it
<Chaintan> <Hess>...I would sir
<DeathStar> <Warren> The second team's mission is to avoid being detected, since if this base is hit, we're out of the fight. The second team is to fly and find missions, help people, and act independently
<DeathStar> <Warren> You will not be getting order's from me, so you have to determine on your own what needs to be done. So whoever takes the ship, you have to feel confident enough you can plan your own missions.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> sounds a bit more like my skillset
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei muses
<DeathStar> <Warren> Before you decide, I wanted to tell you something privately, too, Miyu
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> of course
<DeathStar> <Warren> The third team. I want you to operate no so much undercover, but we'll place you on the ground, with enough funds to create a rotating identities, so that you can move from city to city, staying months at a time, and establish identities. I want you to try to figure out where the hidden government, the flow of weapons are coming from
<DeathStar> <Warren> It means that you getting in contact with either of the other two teams will be harder since we might be incognito, but I will help set up radio points
<DeathStar> <Warren> Whichever you all pick, you can either force pick from who we have, or you can ask the others
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei muses
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Each are tough
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves over to Miyuki, sliding in a seat
<DeathStar> <Warren> If you want to lead for a while that is fine. But Taiga is getting closer to cracking crossing into the mirror universe. You might be the best suited for that mission when the time comes. *he whispers* Just something to keep in mind
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki's ears twitch but she nods
<DeathStar> <Warren> She thinks she might be done by the beginning of next year.
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> alright, I'll keep my dance card open
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods
<DeathStar> <Warren> *He peers at Kaori, Miyuki, and Lorelei* Let me know what you all decide
<DeathStar> 6* He steps out of the room
<Chaintan> 6*Hess moves over to Warren
<DeathStar> 6* Glancing at Hess
<Kemonohime> * Aschae makes a face, having no idea what any of that was about, coiled in Miyuki's tail.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Do you two have a preference?
<Sara> <Kaori> I like the team I have, but... *she ponders*
<Chaintan> <Hess> I'd like to formally work under you sir
<DeathStar> <Warren> Alright. I am thinking I will be the one to work here. Kaori would excel in either of the other two locations in my opinion
<Sara> <Kaori> The mobile base does sound interesting...
<Chaintan> <Hess> you should do whatever interests you most KaoKao
<Sara> <Kaori> What does Hessie like? *she notes*
<Chaintan> <Hess> the mobile base sounds the most fun
<DeathStar> 6* Warren peers at those in the lounge
<DeathStar> <Warren> If you want to talk to each of the leaders, you can. The conference room is open
<Chaintan> <Hess> but I chose to work under Warren...
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves to the master computer
<Sara> <Kaori> Yeah... well... I have my job. *she notes reluctantly*
<Kemonohime> * Aschae peers between Miyuki and Lorelei
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I don't mind doing the undercover job.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess squeezes Kaori's hand
<Kemonohime> <Aschae> ... You heading off somewhere?" She suddenly looks super serious despite being young.
<w00t> 6* Kellin peers up and just calls out
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> And Miyuki can help Kaori get the mobile base off the ground
<w00t> <Kellin> Dibs on Lorelei's team!
<Sara> * Kaori nods
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki snatches up Kaori
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> its like getting another daughter
<Sara> <Kaori> Eep!
<Kemonohime> <Aschae> ...
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Ok... I guess this is the time..."
<w00t> 6* Marcus reclines, not really caring what he has to do, as long as it keeps him busy.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *to Hess* While the mobile base will have to operate mostly on it's own, for it's own safety, we will be able to keep track of it at times here based on our allies. So you might be able to meet up with them when the time comes
<DeathStar> 6* Warren posts the results on the main hall board
<Chaintan> 6*Hess nods
<DeathStar> 6* Lev Peskov moves over to study them
<Seraphna> * Lisa muses, considering what best to do. Reese seems intent on following Hess and Kaori, while An'Mi peers at her mother and granparents.
<w00t> 6* Kellin trots over to peek over Lev's shoulder at it.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren peers, then glances at Rei
<DeathStar> <Ren> So, mobile base, or here?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I don't know..."
<Kemonohime> * Aschae eyes neither answer and kinks Miyuki's tail to let her down, dropping to her feet
<Chaintan> 6*Hess places a hand on Ren's shoulder
<Seraphna> * Jennifer moves over to Warren. "If it's alright, I'd prefer to stick with your team... long as you're still here."
<DeathStar> 6* Eve moves onto the mobile base to get ready, doing her stuff. John steps onto it, figuring Kaori could use some muscle.
<Chaintan> <Hess> I'd like you to be the Amuro to Hess's Bright
<DeathStar> <Warren> I don't mind. This team could use a doctor. Ethan should probably join one of the other teams then
<Seraphna> * Jennifer nods. "I'll let him know."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Oh?
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki's tail constricts, after how many kids she's had, its going to take more than that
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "Vodka joining a team? We should make sure everyone's got a medical specialist."
<Kemonohime> <Hope> Wonder where mama would think I'm best. Or if she's doing her own thing...
<w00t> 6* Marcus gets up after a bit, glances at the results and moves for the mobile base.
<Kemonohime> * Aschae isn't playing, and starts forming a fireball if that didn't work, looking angry.
<Chaintan> <Hess> please think about it?
<DeathStar> 6* Ren nods, musing
<Seraphna> * Truth looks over the results as well. Angelos puts himself in for the undercover team. Since Elder doesn't seem to mind him running off.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...what does that even mean?"
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta hops onto the mobile base, going to be the pilot
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki freezes her tail before foxholing it, all nine tails rattling afterwards
<Seraphna> * Tabetha hops onto the mobile base to continue working on it. Ships something to preoccupy her.
<Kemonohime> * Aschae causes a hell of a lot more issues wherever she ends up, probably, having simply been trying to leave prior, heading for Rachael and Valen.
<Seraphna> Lisa> "I'm pretty skilled at managing cover identities and such... though not sure Sky would like me vanishing for months at a time."
<Chaintan> <Miyuki>...Warren, can you spare a few pills
<DeathStar> *Warren slides her a few*
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael flies as an angry Aschae appears wrecking things
<DeathStar> *flails
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 10.16.5991
<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Warren casually jots notes, early morningish, while the mobile base is being fueled. The base, being fairly expansive inside, has a lab for science as well as a medical bay.
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta has moved her stuff onboard, and John is in the training room, exercising. Eve is working in the science lab. Chad is onboard as well, following his granddaughters
<Seraphna> * Tabetha goes over a final diagnostic, claiming Engineer and the simple logic of working with her pilot, since John is joining Kaori's team.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren spent the day showing Kaori how the ship works, and getting the ship's AI to respond to vocal commands, etc.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren works on the main base, having chosen to stay since Hess asked
<w00t> 6* Kane sips coffee as he eats his breakfast which is mostly just toast and jam.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ethan works the medical bay here
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei so far is still gathering her team, quietly so far.
<Seraphna> * Reese and An'Mi have signed back onto team Kaori as well.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki smiles as she brings Kaori with her
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd quietly joins Lorelei's team, likely to get away. Zephyr also joins Lorelei's team
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *stays at the main base with Ren to try to keep the band together*
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> oh you look so smart in your captain's outfit
<DeathStar> #TAW-Session28-Lorelei
<Seraphna> * Truth, Angelos, Michelle join Lore's team.
<Kemonohime> * Hope follows her mother to Lorelei's
<Kemonohime> * Necia looks in agony, not sure what to join since Vesta joined one with a ton of engineers/computer people.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pats Necia
<DeathStar> <Warren> We could use you here if you opt to do so
<Kemonohime> * Necia winces at the touch, then blinks.
<DeathStar> <Warren> And then you can track the mobile base
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale sticks with Warren, Mi'Na goes wherever Angela goes, Ash heads with Kaori
<Kemonohime> <Necia> Rea.... lly?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Yes.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal goes to the undercover one
<Kemonohime> * Necia lets out a breath, then smiles, nodding with slight tears.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess moves to stand beside Warren
<Seraphna> * Angela is staying on the home team, as is Si'Chii. Jennifer the team's doctor.
<w00t> 6* Marcus works out in the training room too.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sends some of the psionic stuff onto the mobile base, for protection
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Ren, where is the rest of the band?!"
<Seraphna> * Tabetha keeps away from it like the plague.
<DeathStar> <Ren> It looks like they split up from us. But we'll work on getting them together for concert days. Don't worry.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...ok..."
<Jackieness> <Myria> *looks around the base lab* "All... mine..."
<Kemonohime> * Kiseki salutes Warren. "If you don't mind, I will stay here as an agent or contact. I feel my known identity would be a hindrance to either of the others but I may be of use to you in some way while my sister and mother are gone.
<DeathStar> <Warren> IF you want. *Ako spins in a chair*
<Seraphna> * Angela peeks into the lab. "I could always help science you know, being an Engineer."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga works out of a side office, on base more these days*
<Kemonohime> <Kiseki> Thank you." She goes to stick her tongue out at Taiga.
* Dias^ has joined #TAW-Session28
<Jackieness> <Myria> "From here my empire some spread to cover the Ear-urrrrk! Don't sneak up on me!"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *he checks data*
<Kemonohime> * Fiona sets up a room for herself and Eve, making sure everything is pristine and aligned straight.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Alright, I should warn Cheryl and Lemon up above we're opening the pool to let the mobile base out
<Seraphna> Angela> "Hey, no evil world domination... without a union card."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren taps a button, talking to the mobile base
<DeathStar> <Warren> Kaori, when you launch, make sure you are cloaked
<Sara> <Kaori> Roger that, sir.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *walks through the mobile base* "Like the ship PAX... in miniature."
<Kemonohime> * Reno pouts, his stealth technology ability from his dragoon weapon stolen by kids and ships these days-- as he stalks Em.
<DeathStar> 6* As he goes to tell Cheryl, alarms suddenly begin to ring. Eve looks up from on the mobile base
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "I'm 90% sure it's in full working order, Kaori!"
<w00t> 6* Marcus is working out in the mobile base training room? So he's good.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *cursing, he slides back to the master computer, bringing up the defenses and screen*
<Seraphna> * Lisa frowns and peers over. "What..."
<w00t> 6* Kane peers up and quickly moves for the control room to help Warren.
<Seraphna> * Angela peers up and around. "That's a bad sound."
<Jackieness> <Myria> "They are here to steal my stuff!"
<DeathStar> <Warren> What is going on? *Suddenly on screen, nothing appears, but it shows the mansion is under attack. Warren quickly tries to figure out what is up, when a red beam appears on the mansion*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...that's not a good alarm, is it?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> *pulling up his comm, Warren begins to shout* Cheryl. Lemon. GET OUT OF THE MANSION. NOW
<w00t> 6* Kane steps into the room and quickly moves for a station.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly, the Mizukaze MAnsion explodes, and the underground base shakes hard, the lights going out
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth rushes onto the bridge as an alarm goes off
<Seraphna> * Leyaeh is scrambling to read on the status report. "CHIP what the hell is going on!?"
<DeathStar> <CHIP> My sensors back on Earth have detected the Mizukaze Manor has been...wiped from the face of the planet
<DeathStar> 6* He brings up satalite feed
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis quietly walks onto the bridge, wearing only a robe
<DeathStar> <Erevis> How...? That place has been there forever. Since I was first born
<Chaintan> 6*Ama follows after, also in a robe
<Seraphna> * Leyaeh stares forward. "What the bloody fuck..."
<DeathStar> <CHIP> From what I can tell. A military satalite was hijacked and fired one of the Earth defense satalites straight down on the manor
<Chaintan> <Ama> where did Mizukaze last make contact from
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> "What about the base?"
<DeathStar> <CHIP> From her manor. There were definite lifesigns inside.
<Chaintan> <Ama> and now?
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Unknown. The base is undetectable by design, so no one can scan
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Likely the enemy does not know it exists
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Now... Now I am picking up no lifesigns
<Seraphna> Leyeah> "Okay... we need to disable that satellite and we need to send ground troops to cover that area... fuck we can't ask Cheryl for clearance."
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> We will send Xanatos down. He still has an Earth passport. Even if it is 40 years out of date
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> LEts hope Dad and a few other forces can find out what is up
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns, moving to go down as well
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> *peers back at Lenneth and nods* "We can send Sammael too with him."
<Kemonohime> * Mem demands access or to see Lenneth
<DeathStar> 6* Lenneth turns, letting Mem on
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Yes?
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> "She still can identify as Samantha Hendricks after all."
<Seraphna> * Leyaeh lets Xan and Sam know they're needed.
<Kemonohime> <Mem> Considering what I think just happened, 'Yes' is all I get?
<Kemonohime> <Mem> Someone's going planetside now, right? I'm going.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Then hurry instead of being snippy
<w00t> 6* Xanatos blinks at his comm beeping and stumbles around his room trying to find his guns.
<DeathStar> 6* Iko leaps into his holster
<DeathStar> <Iko> Iko will be weapon!
<Kemonohime> <Mem> I'm here, aren't I... getting on surface isn't a problem for me, but I doubt I'm the only one going. Unless you want a surface incident." She thumbs a blade formed by her dragoon ability.
<w00t> <Xanatos> Okay make a firing sound
<Seraphna> * Sammael rises and moves to go as well, kissing Athena on the head. "I will make sure Jennifer is alright."
<DeathStar> <Iko> SMASH SMASH
<Kemonohime> <Mem> ... Did you say Xanatos?
<Kemonohime> <Mem> ... Durran..?
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Dad will handle it. He's my daddy.
<DeathStar> <LEnneth> Now get going
<Kemonohime> <Mem> I said I wanted to reach the surface not-- ... oh goddamnit.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* The lights come on after two minutes, and there's some mild damage to equipment, with sparking
<DeathStar> 6* Warren pushes himself up, eyeing the ceiling dented a bit from the force of the blast. Normally it would have drilled much deeper
<DeathStar> 6* Kaori's team is fine, the mobile base untouched
<Chaintan> 6*Hess groans
<w00t> 6* Kane sits up and holds his head.
<DeathStar> 6* As well as the mobile bus, though the tunnel is caved in, since they were further out of the base
<w00t> <Kane> Oh god, Lemon... 6He quickly scrambles to his feet and tries to get a console working so he can find out what happened above.
<Seraphna> * Jennifer grumbles a bit and peers around. "Everyone alright? Any injuries?"
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits, bringing up the master computer. He eyes outside the base, eyeing the mansion completely devastated, with forces landing and scouring the site
<Seraphna> Angela> "...Shit... are those ours or theirs?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> It seems they figured out Cheryl's house was our meeting up point, and assumed it was the base
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Both? Neither?
<DeathStar> <Warren> The enemy. I don't recognize their uniform. Their faces are covered up by masks
<Chaintan> <Hess> are they ok?
<Seraphna> Angela> "We should tell the mobile base not to launch yet then."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren grabs his comm
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...wh...what happened?"
<Seraphna> Angela> "Better they figure us all dead and go first."
<DeathStar> <Warren> Kaori, the pool is covered up by debris. You can't launch with it blocked, or those people out there
<w00t> <Kane> ... 6* He clenches his fist, eyeing Warren like he wants to go kill them, but is obviously trying to keep himself restrained.
<DeathStar> <Warren on comm> Lorelei, for now, drive off. You're clear. Get out of here.
<Sara> <Kaori> What the hell happened out there? Is Hessie...
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei acknowedges, and drives
<Seraphna> * Angela holds her stomach, looking like she's got that cold pit of dread she's trying to mask.
<DeathStar> 6* Ako growls, and Lev watches them
<Dias^> <ChadComm> Have you had any luck gting ahold of Chii, Cheryl and the others that were up there?
<Seraphna> * Lisa rubs her head. "Sky is never going to let me hear the end of this one."
<DeathStar> <Warren> *hands the comm to Hess*
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na tries to keep Angela calm
<DeathStar> <Warren> Not yet. *He tells Chad*
<Chaintan> <Hess> Kaokao dont worry I'm ok
<DeathStar> 6* Warren tries to get the outer defenses to work, but finds 90% damaged
<Sara> <Kaori> That's a relief...
<Seraphna> Angela> "I-It's Cheryl... she always... finds a way."
<DeathStar> <Warren> 4 guns are still working.
<DeathStar> <Warren> The north, and western guns.
<Chaintan> <Hess> for now do as Warren instructed, I'll keep in regular contact ok?
<Dias^> <ChadComm> This is probably the same people that set up that nuke.
<w00t> <Kane> Can you get a call out to the military? I can see if I can get other guns working. 6He moves to a non-dead console and attempts to do that.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Someone with less shakey should take aim, and take out the men, then try to shoot the debris off the pool so Kaori can escape
<kalonZombie> <Hale> On it
<DeathStar> 6* Kane would find the guns are completely gone, the satelite blasth aving wiped them out
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves for one
<w00t> <Kane> Hmph. Then I will kill them. 6* He takes control of one.
<Seraphna> * Si hops over to take one as well. Jennifer checking people for injuries.
<Jackieness> <Myria> *pads in* "Going to need to build new guns."
<Chaintan> <Hess> make each shot count General Hale
<DeathStar> 6* Ten soldiers move through the debris, digging through it. Hale and Kane and Si will have to take out all ten at once, lest the soldiers get a radio call out
<DeathStar> 6* Prepare yourselves
<DeathStar> 6* Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Right
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4

<DeathStar> -0-
<Kemonohime> * Necia sits, not acquainted with the systems or computers Warren has, so she simply sits in the middle of the floor, taking up an almost meditative poise and her eyes glow their two different colors as she attempts to tether into the near systems and do anything she can to scan, get visual or activate countermeasures.
<DeathStar> 6* The men go down, blood splats
<Kemonohime> * Necia twitches, then immediately working to stifle enemy communications
<DeathStar> 6* Leaving them time to take out the debris now
<Seraphna> * Si figures she can hit a non-moving target better and works on that.
<DeathStar> 6* The pool is cleared
<DeathStar> <Warren> You can go, Kaori. Cloak and fly
<Sara> * Kaori hits the cloaking device
<w00t> 6* Marcus stands on the bridge, having went up after the explosion, a concerned look on his face for Cheryl and her family.
<DeathStar> <Warren> *he swirves to Hess* Once the first group doesn't report in, more will come. I saw we got ten minutes to go up there and check
<w00t> <Kane> I need to get up there, I need to look for Lemon.
<Chaintan> <Hess> <Daisuki>
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Ummm... what about taking their tech to work on?"
<DeathStar> <Warren> The elevator is out, but there is an emergency exit here
<Seraphna> * Angela nods and grabs gear.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess nods to Warren once she finishes her comm to Kaori and follows after him
<DeathStar> 6* He points at a spot for all who plan to go up. Lev checks it out, nodding, and Ako moves through the base
<Sara> * Kaori smiles a bit and she gets flying underway while cloaked
<w00t> 6* Kane glances at Warren, then grabs his pistol and moves for the emergency exit.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale follows Warren, pulling out his automatic
<DeathStar> 6* Kaori would see the huge mobile base cloak as they lift up. Vesta holds the controls as they lift off, and fly. The pool closes behind them. Kaori is off scene for now
<Seraphna> * Angela and Lisa head up.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren remains at the computer for now, keeping an eye on things
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na heads up with Angela
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *looks at Ren* "...should we go too?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> *she shakes her head* I want to check the base, in case any found their way down here. *She moves to patrol*
<DeathStar> -BRIEF PAUSE-
<DeathStar> Location: Mobile Base
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta flies them away from Cheryl's Mansion, heading fast. The ship is rather huge, with multiple levels. The science lab having the psionic material
<w00t> 6* Marcus peers out the viewport and sighs.
<w00t> <Marcus> I don't like leaving them like that.
<DeathStar> 6* As they get further away, unknown ships begin to fly in their vicinity. Despite the fact once the ship is cloaked with PAX tech, they shouldn't be able to track them unless they know the cloak frequency
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Uh, Kaori, we might have a problem. These ships are on a search pattern
<Seraphna> * Tabetha avoids the lab and sticks to engineering. While An'Mi looks out over her aunt's house in ruins as they elave.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "We have bogies in the air."
<DeathStar> 6* John peers out the window, while Eve works in the lab
* Dias^ rubs his face as he watches the displays. 1"Which means they were ready for something like this..."
<Dias^> NRP: Chad
* Dias^ is now known as ChadWinters
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash looks around and whistles
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Only way that is possible is if someone way gave them the frequency
<Seraphna> Reese> "They can't know we're here, right?"
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> we have to hope they dont
<w00t> <Marcus> There's a lot of people on these teams, all it takes is one.
<ChadWinters> That or whoever orchestrated this has more resources then we expected.
<Sara> <Kaori> Well... We're going to have to be unpredictable
<DeathStar> <CHIPPY> No one can crack my ship's tech!
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "That's right CHIPPY!"
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "...CHIPPY?"
<DeathStar> <Vesta> I bet it was XIII. I bet she betrayed us and gave the frequency
<DeathStar> <CHIPPY> I am this ship's AI. Hello
* ChadWinters clicks his tongue at that.
<DeathStar> 6* The four ship's get closer on the search pattern, likely trying to lock on
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta flies over the mountains
<Sara> <Kaori> Evasive maneuvers. Take us further out.
<Sara> * She nods
<Seraphna> Reese> "Seems they only have a vague idea of where we're going."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Bad enws, they know we're here. Good news, they don't know exactly where here is."
<w00t> <Marcus> Maybe we should. You know.. 6* He make a motion with his hand going straight up.
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta nods and hits the speed, getting closer to the mountains
* ChadWinters eyes the ships formations. 1"As long as we can stay ahead of them we'll be ok, until they decide to fire randomally. Someone should work on changing the frequency, see if that confuses them.
<DeathStar> 6* The ships seem to try to tighten it.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha nods and moves to go change the frequency.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Uh, I missed that lesson from Warren
<w00t> <Marcus> Like can't we just go straight up and then level back out once they fuck off?
<DeathStar> 6* As Tabetha does it, the ship starts to go visible.
<w00t> 6* Marcus shrugs, not a pilot.
<DeathStar> 6* It seems it's a sensitive proceedure
<Seraphna> * Tabetha stops and frowns. "What the hell!?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash moves over to help Tabetha, providing extra power so that the ship stays cloaked while she does that
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Changing the frequency drops the cloak."
<kalonZombie> <Ash> On it mom
<Seraphna> Tabetha> *she works to keep it hidden for now and nods* "We need to hide before I can do this."
<DeathStar> <CHIPPY> Oh you need the captain key card and the right frequencies in the right order. Kaori knows them
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "And suddenly going fast would light this ship's location up like a flare."
<DeathStar> <CHIPPY> It is a powerful cloak after all
<Sara> * Kaori ... tries to do it
<DeathStar> 6* As Kaori changes it to the next one, the ships begin to drop off, falling back to where they were last. Vesta slows down, avoiding as they shoot randomly
<DeathStar> <Vesta> They definitely had it
<Sara> <Kaori> Great...
<DeathStar> 6* Eve walks out onto the top deck
* ChadWinters glances over at Eve, nodding to her.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Not many people on the teams would have had access to that information before today."
<DeathStar> <Eve> But who all would have bothered to check out the mobile base?
<Seraphna> Reese> "Weird... someone would give the frequency of our cloak, but not tell them about the underground base."
<DeathStar> <Eve> Hm. Not that weird. The spy would have been killed
<DeathStar> <Eve> *she motions at the psionic drugs they have* It could have been anyone
<Seraphna> Tabetha> *frowns* "Would have needed the frequency, or access and knowledge about the cloaks."
<ChadWinters> If they weren't asking for the right question.
* Xanatos has joined #TAW-Session28
<DeathStar> <Eve> Not necessarily. If I wanted to, I could lean forward and scan and learn the current one
<DeathStar> <Eve> Not the next ones, since I'd need Kaori's cards
<Seraphna> * Tabetha nods a bit, feeling a bt better then.
* ChadWinters rubs his face
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well this is a shitty start
<Seraphna> Reese> "So it's also possible we have an unwitting mole, if you consider the drugs."
<DeathStar> <Eve> Possible. I hate to think one of us is a real one
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I really want to go back. Help them out. 6*He mumbles.
<Sara> <Kaori> It is kind of a bad RNG roll, yeah...
<DeathStar> <Eve> Warren would not want that. We are meant to be unknown
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yeah yeah...
<ChadWinters> They'll be fine Marcus.
<Seraphna> Reese> Have Ms. Hajukaze scan people for mental tampering later."
<DeathStar> <Eve> We have to disappear now
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Ninja vanish!"
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Right, we need some distance."
<DeathStar> *Eve pats Kaori* Lets do this, Captain
<DeathStar> 6* John leans against the wall, thumbing up
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Outside the Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* 3 minutes into the predicted ten minutes, the team emerges; the burning wreck visible. The enter two story mansion rubble. Some of the brick melted slab now
* ChadWinters has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<Xanatos> 6* Kane puts a hand to his face, a look of horron in his eyes.
<Xanatos> (horror)
<Seraphna> Angela> "Odd I never thought I'd see this..." *she peers around for Cheryl*
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Split up, look for survivors
<Xanatos> 6* Kane quietly moves through the rubble, looking for something, some sort of hope.
<DeathStar> <Warren on comm> So far I am not picking up lifesigns, but that might be because of the amount of rubble
<Seraphna> * Lisa frowns and moves in more, glowing gently from her personal shielding layer.
<DeathStar> <Warren on comm> According to the scans before it hit, I would check on the west side and north side
<Xanatos> 6* Kane checks the north side, using his datapad to scan for organic signatures, not life signs.
<DeathStar> 6* Lev begins use his weapon power, forming a shovel and begins to dig quickly
<Chaintan> 6*Hess tries forming a ripple
<DeathStar> 6* Kane would detect one
<Xanatos> <Kane> Here. I need help. 6He begins to dig.
<DeathStar> 6* Ako uses her crystal ability to dig
<Seraphna> * Angela frowns. "Let's try something..." *she closes her eyes and tries to use her Omega Sync, reaching out to any Guardian blooded in the area to see if she can at least sense someone*
<Chaintan> 6*Hess nods and forms the ripple where Kane indicates
<DeathStar> 6* At about 6 minutes, Kane and company uncover an arm at an impossible angle, blood dripping off it. It seems attached to a body of a maid.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane's jaw tightens and he tries to uncover more of the body.
<Seraphna> * Lisa frowns and tries to use her shielding trick to move rubble more off the body.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves to help, a bit stronger than he was before since he was made young again thanks to Miyu
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon slowly is uncovered, her body full of cuts and blood, her head leaning back, not breathing, but not surprising. Her organic 3/4ths seems heavily bloody, and the tiny bit of machinary that was used is sparking
<DeathStar> 6* A deadly sign, since that means her core is exposed
<Seraphna> * Angela rushes over and uses her Holy Healing to work on helping her live.
<Chaintan> <Hess> we're going to need more medics, if this is how extensive the injuries are
<Xanatos> 6* Kane quickly moves to asses her pulse, nodding to Angela as she heals he checks Lemon's circuitry to make sure it's table.
<Xanatos> <Kane> West Side. Scan for organic matter. Go.
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be partially crushed, and no pulse right now
<DeathStar> 6* Lev begins to dig up another body
<DeathStar> <Lev> Got one
<Chaintan> 6*Hess moves to help Lev
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, two shuttles land, enemy shuttles
<Seraphna> * Lisa nods and moves over there to check, scanning. She moves over to use the shielding trick again to help Lev.
<Chaintan> <Hess> We have company
<Seraphna> Angela> "Okay... Kane, we're going to have to move her."
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale pulls out his gun, aiming for the shuttles, and waiting for compartments to open before firing
<DeathStar> <Lev> *he pauses, turning. A small asian body is beneath him, looking broken, when enemies are coming out. Suddenly, a PAX shuttle appears and crashes into a group of enemies*
<Kemonohime> * Necia keeps reaching for anything functional of the mansion grounds outside the underground base
<DeathStar> 6* The PAX shuttle flipping upside down*
<Xanatos> <Kane> She might not survive the move, we have to revive her first.
<DeathStar> 6* Necia would just find a camera and th 4 guns
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale fires at the ones who survive the crash
<DeathStar> 6* The enemies move behind their shuttle, firing around it
<Chaintan> 6*Hess reels as she hurries to the shuttle
<Kemonohime> * Necia rotates the camera and assumes control of the weaponry if necessary
<Seraphna> * Angela nods and keeps the healing up. "Okay... gonna put more into this..." *she glows with Holy element as she taps into her core*
<DeathStar> 6* Ren emerges with Reikana, and uses her abilities to attack
<DeathStar> 6* LEmon jerks
<Seraphna> * Lisa shifts the rubble away, then forms a shield wall for the group.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves to a better angle, finds cover, and shoots a grenade behind their cover, trying to get as many of them in the blast
<Kemonohime> * A pissed off, savage blonde leaps out of the shuttle snarling and cursing-- most of her cursing about the flight and not about the enemies she leaps to tear into with a myriad of shapes of blades
<Xanatos> 6* Kane does his best to ment the electronic parks of Lemon.
<DeathStar> 6* The enemy is blasted, a few flying. The rest scream as Mem attacks
<Seraphna> * Sammael leaps out of the shuttle and starts firing hyperspace into the enemy.
<DeathStar> 6* One flees, grabbing his comm. He slams into Reikana and Ren
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos steps out of the shuttle lett ing out a whistle.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Hey!"
<DeathStar> 6* Iko leaps and savagely beats one
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale fires at the others who are fleeing
<DeathStar> 6* Lev finishes pulling Chii's broken body out and does CPR
<Xanatos> 6* Xan fires at one or two, mostly doing support.
<DeathStar> 6* The enemy is quickly defeated, with Ren kneeing the final one in the balls
<Xanatos> 6* Kane checks Lemon's condition.
<Seraphna> * Luci frowns and moves on, scanning for more signs.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon seems to be alive, shallowly
<DeathStar> 6* Lev pushes on Chii's chest, then does CPR, then pushes, until he gets Chii to cough and breathe
<Seraphna> * Angela pants, her glow fading. "We... gotta get her to medical. I can't do that for too long."
<Xanatos> <Kane> I will get her to safety, please help the others. 6*He tells Angela, shifting to get Lemon up in his arms.
<DeathStar> <Lev> Got a live one
<Xanatos> <Kane> And thank you.
<DeathStar> 6* Ako and Iko push the shuttle back upright
<Seraphna> * Angela nods and stumbles to her sister in law.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane quickly moves to get her back into the base and into medical.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *picks up an enemy comm unit* "I got this!"
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Okay, so I'm rusty at flying.
<Seraphna> * Sammael peers around, nodding as she communicates to her pilot in the base.
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Actually from everything I hear you're right at your peak again
<DeathStar> <Ren> Good job. *she leans in, and hears the enemy asking if it's okay. Once they get no response, Ren and Reikana hear the enemy state the operation is over and cut the line*
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos moves over to look for Cheryl since she hasn't been found yet.
<DeathStar> 6* Lev sets Chii into the PAX shuttle
<Chaintan> 6*with the firefight over Hess tries again with a ripple to scower for signs of life
<Seraphna> * Angela gives Chii a dose of her healing as well.
<Kemonohime> * Chii opens one eye, iris slit narrowly, coughing again since she doesn't always regenerate in the most desired, even way.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Uhhh... and I think they know their guys got ambushed."
<Seraphna> Angela> "Chii? Can you sense Cheryl?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks out, and helping Xan, psionically begins to help, nodding as they move rocks. Soon they uncover an arm
<Kemonohime> <Chii> Ffff.... ..." She hits her hand on the side of her cart to emit a harsh sound perhaps to finish the 'fuck' at least symphonically.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Ah, here
<Seraphna> * Lisa nods and uses her shields to shift rubble again.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na moves to help uncover the next person
<DeathStar> 6* She moves to take the arm, to gently help lift Cheryl out, when sudenly, she falls backwards, only holding the arm
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lets out an almost gaps
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> God.
<DeathStar> <Lev> Christ
<Seraphna> * Lisa looks for the rest of her.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Come'on quickly. 6* He digs to find more of the body, hoping it's all intact.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess makes a face as she comms to Warren
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis begins to move quicker, and soon they uncover Cheryl, who is surrounded by rust covered blood, her entire body dirty. A piece of the mansion is jutting through her chest. It seems in the end Cran got her
<DeathStar> 6* Blood leaks out both ends as she lays there
<Seraphna> * angela whimpers and rushes over to her, trying her best to heal her. "Sis... no!"
<Chaintan> <Hess> Warren, was anyone else near the mansion, wheres Taiga
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na makes a face of pure anger, someone who was basically her sister, and hugs Angela
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Sweetie... she's gone...
<DeathStar> <Warren> Taiga is down here. I---I will tell her what happened
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> .... 6* He frowns and wipes his forehead to get some sweat off, smearing dirt.
<Seraphna> Angela> "No. No. NO. NO. NO! NO!!!"
<DeathStar> 6* Lev eyes Cheryl. Ako and Iko stare, then move over, crystalizing Cheryl slowly
<Seraphna> Angela> "G-Get her down, I'll use my core. She... she can live. I know she can!"
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na hugs her tight, holding her, trying to pull her away from Angela
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Angela...
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> What are you girls doing?
<Chaintan> <Hess> theyre buying us time
<DeathStar> <Ako> Technology todaym ight not be able to do anything
<DeathStar> <Iko> But maybe...
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos nods
<Seraphna> Lisa> "Preserving her... for a time when we can do something."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Smart thinking.
<Seraphna> * Lisa's hands are in fists, and the ground around her slightly more impacted due to unconcious shielding.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale nods and moves to comm someone who can get the body prepped for that
<DeathStar> 6* The two shake as they finish, Cheryl completely crystalize, including her arm, collapsing. Taiga emerges, her eyes widening as she sees her mother. She rushes over, stumbling
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Mom---
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga crashes to her knees
<Seraphna> * Angela rests her head on the crystal, looking drained and lifeless.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *kicks at the ground, feeling unsure now*
<Chaintan> 6*Hess moves over to Taiga
<DeathStar> <Ren> Jesus... grandma...
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm sorry. 6* He tells Taiga, frowning and putting a hand on her shoulder.
<Seraphna> * Lisa puts a hand on her other shouder, frowning and setting her jaw.
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga shakes her head, rubbing her face a bit, in disbelief, since Cheryl got taken out by something so stupid when Cheryl would leap into things and just laugh
<Seraphna> * Jennifer down below has to set aside mourning as she treats Lemon.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon breathes shallowly. The shuttle's medical equipment hooked up to her
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I -this is not happening--not this
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hand in there Lem. It'll be alright.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess makes a face and moves to where the large amount of Cheryl's blood was spilt
<Seraphna> * Jennifer works on her, more than used to PAX medical tech.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon opens her eyes weakly, studying them
<Seraphna> Jennifer> "You hold on Lem... we're gonna get you all fixed up. Okay?"
<Seraphna> * Si comes up and hugs Taiga comfortingly from behind.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess kneels and gathers up a few samples of it before rising
<DeathStar> <Warren to Hess> Get the others up to the PAX where it is safe. Then use the PAX to return here. We don't want them to know this place exists
<DeathStar> <Warren to HesS> Let me... know how Cheryl is after the PAX examines her
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Alright, let's get everyone loaded up and out of here.
<Seraphna> * Angela rises slowly, a hand on Cheryl's crystal and looks up at her.
<Chaintan> <Hess> yes sir
<DeathStar> 6* Lev helps carry Cheryl onto the shuttle. Erevis psionically lifting to aid her
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Seraphna> Angela> "I will burn every last one of them. I swear they will pay."
<DeathStar> Location: Elsewhere
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei drives quietly, tapping her hands on the wheel
<Seraphna> * Angelos takes a seat near the front and puts coffee in her cup holder.
<Seraphna> Angelos> "You okay?"
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd looks annoyed in the back, while Zephyr peers out the window, looking worried about her sister
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin is in the passenger seat, window rolled down and legs sticking out. Arms crossed and looking somber.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Just hoping everything is okay. Knowing my mom she had an escape plan so I'm worrying about nothing
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Yeah, that sounds like her.
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Good... keep that chin up Lore." *he says, being an Uncle right now*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> But right now we have more worries
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> *she taps her hands more*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You saw it, too?
<Seraphna> Michelle> "Saw what?"
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Two vechiles have been following us since we left the sub-way tunnels. They knew the exit route
<Seraphna> Michelle> "Does that mean they knew about the base...?"
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Need me to drop into a care and pay them a visit?"
<Xanatos> <Kellin> ...want me to blast them?
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I don't know; they might have thought it was a hidden exit from the mansion. The tunnels are a maze so I doubt they could find their way back to the base anyway
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "The base can take care of itself. We need to watch ourselves."
<Xanatos> <Kellin> OH no that means out super awesome bus is comprimised.
<Seraphna> Angelos> "You know the old drop and stop technique, Kellin?"
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Better to lose them I think. I just wonder now if they knew about the exit, how much more they knew. *she turns to Kellin* Don't worry, I can fix that problem later. I just worry about the others
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Yeah, but I'm sure everyone can take care of themselves.
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Well it is an old location, my wonderful 'father' used it for quite a few nefarious things before it became our bases."
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei stops at a green light, tapping her hands, then when it turns red, she hits the gas, making incoming traffic honk at her, the pursurers almost getting hit. Then she turns out of sight, hitting a button and changing color on the bus and making it look smaller from the outside
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Alright, next stop, L.A.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> OH my god this bus is amazing.
<Seraphna> Truth> "I've heard of LA."
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Good, we got a long road trip there
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin pulls his feet in and hangs his head outside, with a grin.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mobile Base
<Seraphna> Angelos> "I can't deny a city which honors me by naming itself after me. Good old Los Angelos."
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta leans back, the conference room giant, with a table in the middle that lights up, showing a map of the world
<DeathStar> <Eve> This is your staging area, Kaori. Red areas light up, showing possible missions from Warren, or you can plan your own
<Seraphna> * An'Mi puts some battleships on it.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus peers at the map.
<DeathStar> 6* Right now, 20 areas are lit up red. Tapping it has the screen float up in the middle of the room with a description of what is occurring
<Seraphna> * Reese sits back, lighting up a cig. It's the future now so people don't get all smoked at.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We should go some place warm, I know a few guys around the world.
<Sara> <Kaori> Useful system... it's just like a game, and I like that.
<DeathStar> <John> *admires the women*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Right now, they don't know where we are. This base needs to stay moving while we deploy operational groups to each hotspot."
<Seraphna> * Tabetha leans against John.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Urgent areas blink red. *she taps one that is blinking, and shows a terrorist group that matches the description that hit them at facility hitting a spaceship port that is building a ship with Light Engine Drives*
<DeathStar> <John> Oh great. Not that thing
<Xanatos> <Marcus> What thing?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Wonder what their game is..."
<DeathStar> <John> The Light Engine Drives
<Sara> <Kaori> Lovely. But that does look important...
<Sara> <Kaori> I wonder if it has any rare loot.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "Ooo... I studied those."
<DeathStar> <John> The PAX2 had it. Before the current day PAX. It would rip a hole in space and let you jump across the galaxy
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "Didn't your martial arts student get pulled into this reality due to one?"
<DeathStar> <John> The John of this world died out there
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Was I around then? Was that the thing that makes you throw up?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Maybe they want the drive."
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Ues, it can make people hurl."
<DeathStar> <John> I can only imagine what they would do with a ship with that drive
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Theoretically it should now cut through the mirror universe."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well let's go kick their asses.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I wonder if we can steal it and put it on our ship
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Seeing as there's no other realities to traverse."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh let's do that.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Doesn't that make us the thieves then?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Kick their asses, steal the tech.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> ...good thieves?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "We're comandering it, not stealing."
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Such... barbaric terminology. We're more like... nocturnal possession relocation specialists."
<Seraphna> ((whoops))
<DeathStar> <Eve> CHIPPY, would that engine be compatible with you> <CHIPPY> Hmph. Any tech would work with Progenitor tech
<Seraphna> ((scratch Angelos))
<DeathStar> <Eve> Well, Kaori. Up to you. The attack is in progress
<DeathStar> 6* She glances at her
<DeathStar> <Eve> It can be risky since we're still on the run technically
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Let'sGoLet'sGoLet'sGoLet'sGo
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta scratches her cheek
<Seraphna> Reese> "Taking what they want right out from under them sounds like good revenge."
<Sara> <Kaori> Let's do it!
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Scratch the revenge, this is a necessary tactical move."
<DeathStar> <Eve> Then lets go over the location
<DeathStar> -To Be Concluded-
* DeathStar paws
<DeathStar> I hope you enjoyed it
* Chaintan plays with DS paws
<DeathStar> Blowing the manor up was fun since that place has stood up since TAW4
<DeathStar> Like literally, it has never got taken down
<Jackieness> ;.;!!!
<DeathStar> First Cran Manor in TAW4, then Cheryl took it over
<DeathStar> It's why I joked Cran finally took her out
<Seraphna> It also technically has been in the game since Episode Zero of TAW4.
<Seraphna> Since Serena was first introed in her bedroom there. <_<;
<DeathStar> It has a lot of history
<DeathStar> Even if the team left it for long periods of time
<DeathStar> Like I know for like 200 sessions or so in 4
<DeathStar> They were far away from it
<Seraphna> Serena even didn't live there after Cran died.
<DeathStar> They were like in some base EarthGov could not find them in 4
<DeathStar> So when they did go back to it after like Legion was up and about
<DeathStar> The manor was decayed a lot
<DeathStar> But from 5 onward
<DeathStar> I can't remember a time the Manor has been empty
<Seraphna> I feel like there was one time when the base under it got attacked,
<Seraphna> And everyone, even Cheryl, left for a while.
<DeathStar> Might have, might have
<DeathStar> It's been emptied a few times
<DeathStar> But now we have a giant mobile base
<DeathStar> Funny how in 6 the PAX has been ignored so much
<DeathStar> To focus on Earth
<DeathStar> Usually it's the other way around since 4
<DeathStar> 4 was an Earth focused RPG
<DeathStar> 5 was more PAX focused
<DeathStar> Now 6 is going back to Earth
<Seraphna> And on 7 we go to JUPITER!
<DeathStar> 6 is the finale
<DeathStar> It's why I'm doing all sorts of callbacks
* Seraphna eyes suspiciously.
<DeathStar> And debating an ETPII
<DeathStar> But I don't see how I'd have time.
<DeathStar> Duality would have to be wrapped up first
* Seraphna leans in.
<DeathStar> But once the final main 6 ends, it ends
* Seraphna leans in more
<DeathStar> I said after 5 that I might have one more in me. I'll keep letting 6 have votes at the end of each season
<DeathStar> But once the votes say no
<DeathStar> I'll do a wrap up
<DeathStar> Jst not doing a vote this season since 3 is tying into Duality
<DeathStar> But 3 will get the chance
<Stretch> 3? you mean 6?
* Seraphna leans in more
<DeathStar> Season 3
<DeathStar> At the end of Season 3, I will have another vote to see if people want a 4th season
<DeathStar> Like I did after 1
<DeathStar> I usually do it with 3-5 sessions so I can wrap it up
<DeathStar> Like with 5 sessions left in the season you all go no to a 4th season, I would quickly course correct and wrap up TAW
* Seraphna leans in more
* DeathStar lifts Chain up so you touch lips
* Seraphna blinks
* Xanatos votes no and laughs evilly
* Jackieness knocks Xan down!
* DeathStar paws
* Kemonohime pulls Jackie's rip cord to start her, then holds her out to maul Xanatos
* Jackieness mauls Xan!
* kalonZombie has left #TAW-Session28
* Xanatos tastes like farts
<Kemonohime> I call it a Jack-saw
* Jackieness dies x.x

<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei sets down tools, having bought out with Cheryl's money a giant mobile command bus.
<DeathStar> 6* The base has been designed to look like an RV
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Gonna be a bit cramped, but I assume we're not living in this."
<w00t> 6* Kellin arrives at the base, having went back to the PAX to let Athena know he's be away for a bit. He walks up to see the bus and lets out a squeal of joy.
<w00t> <Kellin> OH this is going to be fun.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I'm here to assist with logistics."

<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I remember some of the times we went undercover in the past. Fun times."
<kalonZombie> 6*Ethan sets up his medical bay how he likes
<Seraphna> * Someone has left Ethan a portrait of Jennifer to hang. It eyes him in a judging mentor way.
<kalonZombie> 6*He slides it into a safe to keep it super safe and never have it damaged
<Seraphna> * The portrait will remember this.
<kalonZombie> 6*It will thank him one day
<w00t> <Kellin> Fun is what it's all about. Oooh! Shotgun!
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash looks around for a bedroom for him to recharge in
