<DeathStar> Location: Duality
<DeathStar> Location: The Hub
<DeathStar> 6* C'en Ariel laughs a creepy laugh, swinging her swords as she circles the room
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki makes a face, watching the crazy loli
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon holds his spear ready, looking confused.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I'm sorry, why are we fighting?
<Luci> * Cookie keeps her guns trained on her, letting her awareness out a bit to get her precognition going. "...Who is this, by the way?"
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki holds Ouka's blade tightly. Ariel pauses
<DeathStar> <Ariel> Youuuuu're right. *she grins* I don't want you old people. I want the kids
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel melts into the crystal floor
<Luci> Cookie> "...Old!?"
<Nyaomi> * The floor begins turning red hot
<Jackieness> <Airym> *turns toward the console*
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Kids, huh, does that count me?
<Luci> Cookie> "Airym, work fast, she's heating the floor!"
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki flumps against a console, then jerks at Kiichigo being there
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Kiichigo?
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> No she isn't, I am. I don't want that creep getting away.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> ...what just happ-6* he blinks at the floor and moves to pick up Kaori if she's non-electric now, he glances around for something to climb on it.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel makes a noise, pulling herself up
<DeathStar> <Ariel> Who are you suppose to be, sickly bitch?
<Nyaomi> * Kiichigo keeps one hand on her face, the other gesturing to Ariel.
<Luci> Cookie> "But... we were avoding a confrontation... oh great."
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> One of the kids, you rude little shit.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I'm sorry, WHAT is going on!?
<Jackieness> <Airym> *begins trying to undo the damage to the console using her connection as part of Centerpoint's control system*
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel sparkles, apparantly stronger than last time, having fused with the crystals in the Network
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Who are you. Why is shit being a dick and is Kaori alive? 6*He checks as he says that.
<Luci> Cookie> "I'd explain but as Myria would put it that might break the fourth wall."
<DeathStar> 6* Airym does so, though Kaori remains looking ill
<Xanatos`> (why is she. Ha)
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> You'd rather she go after children? And here I'm supposed to be the bitch...
<Luci> * Cookie frowns and checks Kaori's vitals.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel leans against a wall, fusing into it, and then emerges behind Kiichigo, stabbing at her
<DeathStar> *The Hub's computer begins to come back online slowly*
<DeathStar> 6* They appear weak and unsteady
<Nyaomi> * Kiiichigo jerks, shifting to dodge, but her movements are sluggish, her shoulder spraying red from a slice.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon lays Kaori back down and gives Cookie a shrug.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki tries to stab at Ariel
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon pauses and tries to access his magic, having not tried that in a long time.
<DeathStar> 6* It works inside the hub thankfully
<DeathStar> 6* The Computer's Avatar appears, speaking to Airym
<Nyaomi> * Kiichigo raises her palm over the blood sprayed from her shoulder, making it sizzle a moment, then sprout something like vines, gesturing for them to sail at Ariel in response.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *tries to stabilize the system*
<DeathStar> <Avatar> Please place Kaori inside here. *She opens up a slot* She will die without me
<Luci> * Cookie touches Kaori and attempts to use Mimic Health to stabilize her, mentally telling her body to chill out and get better.
<Luci> * Cookie blinks and nods, doing so.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel grins sadistically, slashing at the vines, her eyes getting red
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon lets out a breath and then moves forward towards the fight, etchings in his spear lighting up in a blue glow.
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> You kind of look like the lady that was helping me out, but you're twisted.
<DeathStar> 6* The slot closes, the system pretty much already stablized as statyed above
<DeathStar> <Avatar> I will mend Kaori and do as her last will was - to work the Gate you wish. I will also put a field around the computers to protect them
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The system is now operating within acceptable parameters."
<Luci> Cookie> "Okay... do what you need to do." *she peers back at the fight*
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> But I'm okay with that." She smiles, spreading her fingers, then clenches a fist, all the vines Ariel cutting splashing about, but when Kiichigo's hand closes, it all converges back to the center, the room chilling as she focuses on her inherited ice ability, attempting to trap her.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> If that's the case, we should get out of here and make it back to the others, lest we get left behind
<Luci> * Cookie nods. "Okay."
<Xanatos`> <Simon> We sure she can't do more damage if we leave?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I honestly don't know
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> You lot are done with what you were doing?
<Luci> Cookie> "Yep."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It is done."
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel jerks and dives back into the wall to escape, some of her crystals breaking to doso
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Cool. I'm about to die.
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Good timing.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Whaaa?
<Luci> Cookie> "Oh umm... okay?"
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Does the thing have a slot we can stick her into as well?
<Luci> * Cookie blinks confused.
<Luci> Cookie> "Computer lady?"
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It was meant for Kaori. We must leave now."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki grabs Kiichigo and drags her along
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> ..." She studies Yuki a moment, then blinks.
<Luci> * Cookie sighs and moves for the gate.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon nods and jogs after Yuki
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Come on, you don't need to be fighting if you are about to die
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> What are you doing?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Dragging you back to the land of magic
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Oh. That explains a lot.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki leaps through a gate to get into the Network
<Jackieness> <Airym> *turns and moves out through the gate*
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Have you met a fox with markings on it, or a cheeky woman with violet hair and green eyes?
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Still pretty fox-ish.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We foxes meet each other all the time
<Luci> * Cookie leaps after Yuki.
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Yeah, it seems like that. I guess you met her, then. My mother. Maybe even both of them.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon moves in last
<Luci> COokie> "The have a secret Fox Club."
<DeathStar> 6* As they leave, Ariel's slowly lowers from the ceiling, laughing softly
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Of course I know your parents, Kiichigo. We're practically cousins
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Yuki. Ha ha.
<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Ben paces, peering at Em being checked over, as is Wyrd and Lisa
<DeathStar> <Ben> No sign of the virus then?
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf sighs at Ben
<Luci> * Jennifer checks the readings.
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale sits by Em, while Mal paces back and forth
<Xanatos`> <Saf> You're making me nervous, with all that pacing.
<DeathStar> 6* They seem to be clean
<Luci> Jennifer> "They look clean."
<DeathStar> <Ben> I am nervous. X is still out there
<ChadWinters`> Rightfully so Saf.
<ChadWinters`> Has the PAX still been able to keep tabs on her location?
<Luci> Jennifer> "I'll want to do additional tests over the next few days to be sure, but they seem like they're going to be just fine now."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> That's not going to change anything.
<Luci> * Truth sits with Wyrd.
<kalonZombie> <Mal> X is still out there and for all we know she's still ultra pissed at my dad
<Luci> Jennifer> "Knowing Leyaeh she's been staring at the tracker like a watchhound."
<ChadWinters`> I'm more worried that if she succeeds in changing her genetic code, they'll lose her
<Luci> Jennifer> "They'll at least know when it happens. Then we have other means of tracking her."
<ChadWinters`> Maybe, maybe not.
<Luci> * Jennifer peers up. "She took a guardian's DNA. We've got a few people capable of tracking them down."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> I wonder how much she'll actually change. 6* She muses to herself.
<DeathStar> <Ben> So far they haven't said anything
<DeathStar> *Ben turns to MYria and Jennifer
<Jackieness> <Myria> *plods in* "Being infected with the virus may make it even worse. The virus was alrready putting the whammy on her genetic code... imagine what will happen if she does crazy stuff! CRAZY STUFF!"
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Well Chad considering it's my dad my priorities are a bit wackier
<DeathStar> <Ben> Myria. Jennifer.
<Luci> Jennifer> "Yeah bro?"
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Do you wish to know if its alright to panic now?"
<ChadWinters`> Then stay behind when she emerges.
<DeathStar> *he sets down the vials of all the people so far. The H-Virus. The D-Virus. The W-Virus. The X-Virus. The Dragoon viruses. The L-Virus*
<DeathStar> <Ben> What set of viruses would you mix to cure X?
<Luci> Jennifer> "I'd use samples of whoever her infection originated from, and those she infected."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Where did her infection originate from?
<ChadWinters`> Sun VI.
<DeathStar> <Ben> The rain nanites
<Luci> Jennifer> "We have her DNA which is a good sampleset. And we have samples of the Rain Nanite infector."
<ChadWinters`> She was most likely infected later after the nanites 'corrected' the activation code
<DeathStar> 6* Em lets out a breath, leaning against a wall
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Those will be the starting point!"
<Luci> Jennifer> "We also have the Alpha she directly infected, which we can use to map the pathogen."
<DeathStar> <Ben> That it?
<Luci> Jennifer> "Hess' sample to add resistance blockers."
<ChadWinters`> Hopefully her exposure to Dias and Wyrd didn't change her virus much.
<Luci> Jennifer> "And now we'll need to work with some of Ariel's DNA as well. Since it's possible she'll have adapted it."
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Yeah
<DeathStar> *Em lets out a breath, perhaps still ashamed at her actions*
<Luci> * Jennifer muses on that. "Alternative samples with their blood in as well for a control, Myria?"
<ChadWinters`> But since Wyrd and Dias were cured with the one you already worked up, it's probable it hasn't
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale squeezes Em's hand
<Jackieness> <Myria> "It would be sensible."
<DeathStar> <Ben> If you throw in too much, won't it get out of control?
<kalonZombie> <Hale> <You couldn't have known>
<DeathStar> <Em> <I suppose>
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Honestly this is all a bit over my head, but Ben has a point.
<DeathStar> 6* Wyrd yawns, sitting there tiredly
<Jackieness> <Myria> "We're not pouring it all in a big pot. We have to study the mutation path of each strain."
<Luci> Jennifer> "True, it could, but what we're dong here is taking aspects of the infection and using it to craft a counter."
<DeathStar> 6* Ren strums on a guitar, sitting near Hess and Reikana
<Luci> * Jennifer nods.
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Then we can develop a predictive model and forumalte paths of attack."
<Luci> Jennifer> "Basically crafting an agent specializing in taking out the target, her infection."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> If we were to find and capture X in an hour, would you have something to work with or is this something that's going to take a while to develop?
<DeathStar> 6* Ren plays a depressing song
<Luci> Jennifer> "Hrm... we might come up with a treatment in that time, not a cure."
<Jackieness> <Myria> "More than an hour... though our existing treatment may slow it down."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Well, get to it. *he shoos Jen and Myria to the lab*
<Chaintan> 6*Hess stares to at the ceiling and closes her eyes
<Jackieness> <Myria> *scurries to the lab!
<DeathStar> 6* Then he moves to Hess
<DeathStar> <Ben> How are you holding up?
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale moves over to Hess and squeezes her shoulder
<Luci> Jennifer> "Maybe modified with her DNA samples..." *she starts heading there, sending messages to Cuddles and Tamara for consults*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *sighs and flops on to her back*
* ChadWinters` glances down at his datapad briefly then runs his hand through his hair.
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf goes to say something else but stops and crosses her arms, thinking hard.
<DeathStar> <Computer> We are getting a priority one message.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben looks up beside Hess, then answers for her
<ChadWinters`> Let's see it
<DeathStar> <Ben> What is it?
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles' face appears
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> I think you all might want to see this. I sent it to Cassandra and Lorelei's teams, too
<DeathStar> 6* She turns her datapad, to where Cheryl's crystal is breaking apart, and her hand is breaking out
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale looks over, and Mal moves over as well
<Luci> * Angela peers over.
<ChadWinters`> Cheryl...
<Luci> Angela> "She's waking up!?"
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf blinks, arching a brow.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> I predict she might be out of it in the next ten minutes.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Oh, my lazy sister-in-law is finally coming up from her nap
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Should we prepare a team?
<Luci> * ANgela bolts for the teleporter. Somehow leaving a dustcloud.
<DeathStar> <Ben> I think Lorelei likely might be on it
* ChadWinters` rubs his face. 1"Her timing is something else.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na is just as much a dustcloud
<Luci> * Lisa mumbles. "She would wake up right in time for the final ass kicking..."
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...Ren...we need somethign that isn't so depressing..."
<ChadWinters`> Doubtful she'll be ready to a go at anything right away.
<Nyaomi> * Chii sits in front of the crystal, arms crossed
<Luci> Lisa> "Can someone tell me what truck hit me?"
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Someone on Cassandra's team, I think.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Yeah. *She eyes the monitor* Lets find out where X . Time to hit the research
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Duality Side
<DeathStar> Brief Interlude
<DeathStar> 6* Wind turns to see Miyuki and Shion show up, hugging them in front of Erica, who has been with the Aquarius this entire time
<DeathStar> 6* He turns, having hooked up the machine to the Gate, and the Gate begins to swirl, slowly forming into the Time Gate, but strangely not quite forming into it yet.
<DeathStar> <Wind> Hm. Something isn't quite right yet. It should be ready for the adults to pass through for their "Sacrifice" to merge with their past bodies. We might need something bigger to go through first. *Erica frowns, peering at the Aquarius, then slowly walks inside her ship, ordering the crew off except herself and Mireille*
<DeathStar> Location: The C'en Base
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki's team busts in rowdily with a sickly girl
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We're back
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Hello. Oh you're all here.
<Luci> * Cookie peers around carefully as they come in and sighs in relief.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon stands up, arching a brow at Kiichigo.
<Xanatos`> (Logan I meant)
<Luci> Cookie> "We ran into some psycho girl."
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Did you run into trouble?
<DeathStar> 6* Undine moves from Miyuki, heading over to Kiichigo to look her over. While Shion tilts her head
<Jackieness> <Airym> "She looked like Ariel."
<DeathStar> <Shion> I think, mom, another of your kids are here
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> A-Ariel?
<Luci> Cookie> "Crazy 12 year old looking girl with reality crystals sound right?"
<Xanatos`> <Simon> You know her? She was kind of a jerk.
<Luci> Cookie> "She trapped the console and nearly killed Kaori."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Yes,but was obviously flawed. Her mental stability was practically non-existent."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl curtseys, a 12 year old in a loli outfit
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That sounds like my twin
<Xanatos`> <Simon> THAT's why I knew her face.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki looks over to Kiichigo, kneeling by her
<Luci> COokie> "We left her there. She's nuts."
<Xanatos`> <Logan> You're sure she did not follow you?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We tried to lose her in the Network, so we don't know
<Luci> Cookie> "She seems fixated on finding the kids there."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "She was laying in wait in the Hub."
<DeathStar> 6* Tora and Sen seem to be going through Seniga's datapad, looking for something in particular
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix looks confused and points to himself when Cookie says that.
<Sathen> *Mykel moves over from keeping an eye on the kids, listening quietly*
<DeathStar> <Selena> We defeated her once bedfore; she might be angry with us
<Jackieness> <Airym> "She wishes the 'kids' ill."
<DeathStar> <Undine> *to Miyuki* She is very sick. If I had enough mana, I could heal her
<Sathen> *Jinx stands behind Selena* *softly* Not nice...
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Holy shit-- Maki?
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> You're not the one I expected to see
<Xanatos`> <Simon> ...I could contribute some of my energy if it would help?
<Luci> * Alita looks over at Undine. "I have my mana crystal?"
<Luci> * Alita pulls it out.
<Sathen> Mykel> I could offer up some mana as well if it will help.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I'm a giant magic battery I could easily give some of mine
<DeathStar> <Undine> That is kind of you, Mr. Simon, but it would take a lot. *she pauses, taking the mana crystal* This might do
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "This person, has she been dealt with?"
<Nyaomi> * Kasha in fox form lands on Kiichigo's shoulder, looking about as deadpan as a fox can.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> No. She seemed unstoppable where we were.
<Sathen> Jinx> *softly* Not nice girl, left alone...
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Mana crystal? Interesting.
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> She was syphoning off the crystal itself, if that helps.
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Bix: Stop Ary yell.
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki pets Kiichigo and coils her in a tail
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Where did she learn how to do that...
<DeathStar> 6* Undine pulls Kiichigo against her breasts
<DeathStar> <Undine> One moment
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Are you certain that she was not able to follow you, then?"
<Nyaomi> <Kiichigo> Also, I was stalking Kaori. Didn't have anything better to do, didn't mean to end up he--rmphrmmmph!
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Again, I don't know. *She sounds annoyed now
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But I didn't want to continue a battle in the hub which was needed for the Time Gate
<Xanatos`> <Simon> It was already starting to become quite destructive. I believe Miss Yuki made the right call.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I just mean that we should be on our guard."
<Sathen> Mykel> Perhaps we should send in some people to deal with her that can stop her in her tracks completely?
<DeathStar> 6* Undine glows and soon Kiichigo glows blue. As she does, Wind and the eight tail Miyuki walks in.
<DeathStar> 6* The alternate Miyuki peers at her counterpart
<Luci> Cookie> "Not sure it's going to matter soon."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Huh
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki rises and looks at her mirrored self
<Sathen> *Maeryn standing against the wall looks at Mhion, holding her own staff in one hand while patting the head of her panther*
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> ...It's like a dream that came true
<Jackieness> <Airym> "If we are successful here, this version of Ariel may become a nonissue, assuming she does not discover a way to surive the aversion of this timeline."
<DeathStar> <Miryuki> So this is the legendary that likes women
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> um for clarity sake, I would say I am Bi-sexual
<Sathen> Maeryn> Is it time that I can repay this one for the introduction to marble flooring?
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> but yes, I'm the one with three wives
<DeathStar> <Miryuki> Ohohoho.
<Luci> * Luci yawns a bit. "So... we've got everything we need right?"
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki jiggles
<kalonZombie> <Max> I hope so
<Chaintan> <Miyuki> and a small island population's worth of children
<DeathStar> *Mhion looks a bit bored, when suddenly Tora slams the datapad down*
<DeathStar> <Tora> Got it!
<DeathStar> *Tora drags Ruhi and Vyvy over, then Miyuki and Miryuki*
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Got what?
<DeathStar> <Tora> I think I understand a few prophecies better
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "You have decoded them?"
<Sathen> *Kaylin stands behind Tora and observes*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks as Miyuki yelps
<Luci> Alita> "I've almost forgotten about those."
<DeathStar> <Tora> *she pats Tenebrae then hits play*
<Sathen> Mykel> At times I wish I could forget about them...
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I did forget about those
<Sathen> *Mykel pats the shoulders of his wives*
<DeathStar> "The blood of royality will fall and bring about civil war." <Tora> That was completed long ago.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan steps over to Tore and listens.
<DeathStar> <Tora> When the Hapian incident occurred
<DeathStar> "Two not in line to inherit the throne will find themselves in place to inherit if they slay their kin, but only one will inherit - one will bring grief."
<DeathStar> <Tora> Again, this was occurred, during the Legion incident occurred
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Was that about Mykel?
<DeathStar> *Tora nods, working her way down each*
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon nods back, not actually there for the incident, but the aftermath.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae blinks several times
<Sathen> Mykel> Best bet is not to let them sway your own actions or think about them too much...
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Hmmmm..."
<DeathStar> <Tora> However, I think I understand a few now.
<Luci> Alita> "Which ones?"
<DeathStar> "The child of two worlds will unite them and hold against the dark things of a new race."
<DeathStar> <Tora> That can either refer to Ruhi or Vyvy.
<DeathStar> <Tora> Ruhi was born to Riki and Wolfe.
<DeathStar> <Tora> Wolfe was from the other side, and Riki here. Same thing to Vyvy
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I wasn't born to two, but I have lived here the majority of my life..
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Technically I was the one born of two." She holds up a hand.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Dark things?"
<Luci> Cookie> "Could it possibly refer to Yuki's baby?"
<DeathStar> <Tora> You have been tampered with, but it can be you, Tenebrae, but I think the next one might refer to you more
<DeathStar> "A spirit not naturally born will be the key to uniting spirits to save a dead world." <Tora> Though that might be Mireille
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae tilts her head.
<Sathen> Kaylin> Or any of the other crafted spirits on the Aquarius...
<Nyaomi> <Saoirse> Poor Yulindhe.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Should we pay attention to this or just focus on doing what's right?
<DeathStar> <Tora> Most spirits were apparantly brought about by me if the C'en are to be believed. You were not. You were born by parents. I say Mireille since she was the first of her kin
<DeathStar> <Tora> And finally, I think you can all agree on my assessment on the last
<DeathStar> "Nine tails will rule them, but eight tails seal them." <Tora> *She peers at Miyuki and Miryuki*
<Nyaomi> <Kasha> Told you that bitch was always mixed up in everything.
<Sathen> Mykel> Knowledge of a prophecy can unintentionally lead to causing the prophecy to come to fruition...without that knowledge it never would have occured.
<DeathStar> <Shion> You forget KAsha is an eight tail now
<Nyaomi> <Kasha> Am I? Did I lose one?
<Nyaomi> * Kasha chuckles.
<DeathStar> <Shion> When we go back in time, will you keep it?
<DeathStar> *She points out*
<Nyaomi> * Kasha shrugs, then peers at Kiichigo.
<DeathStar> *Tora puts up the datapad* I just wanted to say this before we go back in time - so that we can keep the mamoery
<DeathStar> <Tora> I'd hate for us to lose this information
<Nyaomi> <Kasha> I ate a shard. I won't lose mine. I can't lose mine.
<Luci> Cookie> "Will try to keep it in mind."
<Chaintan> 6*Miyuki rocks Kii in her tail
<Nyaomi> <Kasha> Even if fate is tempting me to think my mission is fulfilled.' She continues looking at Kiichigo and Undine.
<DeathStar> *Undine finishes with Kiichigo and sits back, exhausted*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I have recorded this entire conversation."
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Bix: Record!
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *she eyes Tora hard* Don't forget you're suppose to let go of your power when we get back
<DeathStar> <Tora> I .... won't. I promise to release it when we get back
<DeathStar> *Wind claps his hands*
<DeathStar> <Wind> The moment of truth is here
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Time to go.
<DeathStar> <Wind> The Time Gate is about ready. So who all is going through first?
<kalonZombie> <Max> Time to go
<Sathen> *Maeryn moves to stand behind Mhion, looking at her with narrowed eyes*
<Luci> Luci> "Us parents. The kids follow."
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ nods
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I assume it would be fruitless to try and take back a weapon or item?
<DeathStar> *Mhion yawns, acting like she doesn't notice, but Miryuki stands behind Maeryn*
<Sathen> *Jinx reaches out and holds on to LJ's hand*
<DeathStar> <Wind> It will be okay, but it will vanish in time after the paradox
<DeathStar> <Wind> I say you will have a small window before you merge
<DeathStar> <Wind> In which you can destroy the C'en and warn your partselves. Once it happens, the paradox will hit and then you will be thrust into your past selves
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...if this works... we may be erased if we stay... we have to go to have any chance at all..."
<Sathen> *The large panther nudges at Miryuki before settling down next to Maeryn, licking its lips*
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ holds Jinx's hand, and he reaches for Nell's
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *to Bella* Have faith. The Time Gate should protect you all too.
<Luci> Luci> "The kids wait and follow after. No risking vanishing."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But only if you go second
<Jackieness> <Kira> *uncharacteristically sighs and puts an arm around Bella*
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Yes, if one of you were in the womb and went back, the merge would have you as an unborn child. Terrifying.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae pauses
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae turns and points at Shioon
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Fox woman!
<DeathStar> <Shion> Yes?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Nell, if we make it through this alive...
<Luci> Nell> "I'm waiting. Mom is actually scary when she gets mad."
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Give me one of those crystals she gave you!
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I plan to say. <Riki> Me too. I want to be here for the kids when the paradox wave is over
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Next time around, you can learn about computers from Asarar since there will still be computers."
<DeathStar> 6* Shion tosses one over
<Nyaomi> * Kasha pops to human form, raising an eyebrow. "Is that a good idea?"
<kalonZombie> <Junior> Junior go! 6*He holds up a ladle and is wearing a pot for a helmet
<Luci> Alita> "Some of us had kids after the paradox would have resolved... so we need to trust them to Cypher and Riki.:
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I plan to go first. I should be unique, and that'll add to the power of the time gate
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki stands in the go first pile. Oddly, Selena stands in the go first pile
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae nods approvingly to Shion's subservience, then takes the shard and drops it on the ground, wreathing her left arm in shadow and forming the monstrous one, smashing the crystal into powder, which she scoops up.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan and Simon prepare to go. Bix looks conflicted, wanting to go help immediately but also wanting to stay.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Selena?"
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Thanks for the meal!" She swallows it.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max steps up to be one of the first that goes in
<Luci> Cookie> *moves to join Yuki*
<kalonZombie> <Max> C'mon dog, step up
<Luci> Nell> "Bix you should wait with us."
<DeathStar> <Selena> I know. I'll regress back into a kid. But my parents aren't likely alive.
<DeathStar> <Selena> So my passion lies in the past
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae pats Selena on the head.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "In truth, so does mine."
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae peers about for Seniga.
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix nods to Nell.
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga gives Tenebrae a hug, waiting in the second group. If she went, she'd cease to exist, after all
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon arches a brow to Sasha.
<Luci> * Alita sets her daughter up with Cypher, before moving to join the first goers.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> All the academy people should go.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae nods. "I understand."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar puts an arm around Kira, moving to the first group
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Indeed, we should."
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Good luck, Tenebrae
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia sets up her son with Cypher as well, moving with Alita
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks over with Asarar*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> I'll see you when my group goes
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Who needs luck! We're forging this with our own hands!" She throws her's up, jabbing Selena.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *brushes her hair back and steps forward with her tam*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher puts her arms around all the kids, keeping watch
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> I'll find you all, no matter the distance!
<DeathStar> <Seniga> I know you will
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm still not sure about this." She mutters, looking to Shade
<DeathStar> *Cheryl stays with the kidfs
<Luci> Luci> "Alright, parents first, kids who would cease to exist or be unborn wait for the second go."
<DeathStar> <Shade> I plan to go back with the first group. I'm not letting Tenebrae out of my sight
<Luci> * Nell hugs Luci and Max tight.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max hugs her back
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Nice to meet you, Cherry-yellow! Thanks for the help!
<DeathStar> *Shade spins Vyvy and kisses her*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> don't be a hero
<Luci> Nell> "You should really wait with us, Ten Ten."
<Jackieness> <Airym> *begins monitoring the time gate* "We are nearly ready."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki hugs onto Saoirse, then pauses, peering at her
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Where's Erica?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Perhaps she is on board the Aquarius."
<Luci> * Cookie peers around.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But we're all suppose to travel through on the Aquarius
<DeathStar> <Yuki> ... *she gets a sudden sickly feeling and hurries toward the Gate*
<Jackieness> <Airym> *tries to set up a link with the Aquarius systems*
<Luci> * Cookie blinks and follows.
<DeathStar> 6* Airym would get an automated message from Erica
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I am receiving a transmission from the Aquarius."
<kalonZombie> 6*Max then drags Wolfe along
<kalonZombie> <Max> Stupid dog, I said c'mon
<Chaintan> <Wolfe> cat I will fucking bite your throat
<Jackieness> <Airym> *plays the message*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> I can't wait. I'm most capable of forming this gate...
<DeathStar> <Erica message> Apparantly the Time Gate isn't fully forming properly, so I'm going to jump start it for the first group. I'm not sure what will happen to me or the Aquarius, so I had everyone get off. If I don't make it, I just want Saoirse and Yuki to know that I love them. Goodbye, you two. *at that moment, the Aquarius can be seen lifting off and flying through the gate. A surge of a time storm can be seem
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Besides, Selena-wife is going!
<Luci> Nell> "You'll cease to exist going first..."
<DeathStar> 6* And the time gate begins to swirl, though it seems to be not quite formed yet, still needing more people
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon blinks, looking confused.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I thought you said it was ready? 6* He looks to Wind.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "She means to sacrifice herself to stabilize the time gate."
<Luci> Cookie> "Seems... she did."
<DeathStar> <Wind> It needed something large to be sent through. I planned to send the Aquarius through on auto pilot
<DeathStar> <Wind> I'm not sure why she went through in it
<Nyaomi> <Saoirse> ...
<Xanatos`> <Logan> The gate still doesn't look...right
<DeathStar> <Wind> If we're lucky, she's fine and linking up with the Aquarius in the past.
<DeathStar> <Wind> That's why you all need to go through first and link through with your past selves
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It would be ideal success would greatly increase with both ships available."
<DeathStar> <Wind> If the kids did it, they wouldn't find themselves 100 years ago and drift forever
<Nyaomi> * Saoirse makes an undiscernable face, putting an arm around Yuki
<Luci> Luci> "Which is why we adults are going first and the kids are waiting."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki leans against Saoirse. Selena takes a breath, then leaps through
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I see. Let's go then. 6* He advances towards the gate, pausing just before it.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Hrmph." She raspberries Luci, then leaps after Selena
<Luci> * Alita looks at Mykel and Ceilia and kisses them both, getting read to go through.
<DeathStar> 6* The gate slowly stablizing. Asarar eyes it, then leaps in, then Shade. It begins to become more blueish and like a normal gate
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia kisses Alita and Mykel as well, getting ready
<Luci> * Talia paws.
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga watches with Cheryl
<Jackieness> <Kira> *leaps in with Asarar*
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon moves through, with Logan closing his eyes and goes in as well.
<kalonZombie> 6*Kalon's people leap through, dragging Wolfe, since Chain is in danger of falling asleep
<Luci> * Alita goes through, taking Ceilia and Mykel with her, Talia riding with her.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *tries to look as regal as she can before she steps through the gate*
<Luci> * Luci goes with Max.
<Luci> Cookie> "Ready Yuki, Sao?"
<DeathStar> *Yuki nods and leaps through
<Luci> * Cookie goes with her.
<Nyaomi> * Saoirse follows Yuki
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I wish you all well." *turns to look at the others before stepping through with Yuki*
<DeathStar> *As the last of the adults go through, the gate stablizes. Cheryl looks at the kids
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Let's do this
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei runs into the medical bay as Cheryl busts free of the crystal prison, standing there naked. She eyes her hands, staring at them in confusion, then slowly peers down at her chest
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I...I did it. I'm still alive.
<Luci> * Angelos runs in with Lore, and Angela skids in in far behind them.
<DeathStar> 6* She feels along her chest
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin trots in after, slowing to a stop just by the door.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na helps with Angela's skidding
<Luci> Angela> "Well... you were mostly dead... but you survived... yeah... sis..."
<Nyaomi> * Chii tackles Cheryl
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl hugs Chii stiffly, then peers at her, then smiles, tilting her head up to kiss her, almost victoriously
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes. You are right.... Angela. I did survive. Thanks to all of you
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> It was no problem. ... What did I do, again?
<DeathStar> 6* Cuddles runs a scan on Cheryl
<Luci> * Angela watches her, blinking a little.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Nothing, it was all me, obviously
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> Your healing seems to be better than ever
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm sure it was Chii
<Nyaomi> * Chii flexes, being the "immortal"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sorry if I seem a bit off.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *She turns back to them all* I feel like I've been rattled. What all have I missed?
<Luci> Angela> "You do seem a bit stiffer than before. You're feeling alright?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> A little foggy.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Welllllll...
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin crosses his arms, leaning against the wall. He muses to himself for a moment.
<Luci> Angela> "Umm... well... that's going to take a while."
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Just time falling apart
<Xanatos`> 6* Xan steps in clapping his hands together.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> It might be a result of fixing you
<Luci> Angela> "Lore? Want to tackle your Mom and get that out of the way?"
<Xanatos`> <Xan> Cheryl! Welcome back.
<DeathStar> <Cuddles> But I should fix you
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei hesitates a bit, then hugs her
<Luci> Angela> "Oh, and we found a Xanatos."
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Welcome back mom
<Luci> Angela> "And a Kane too, actually."
<Luci> Angela> "In fact a lot of people seem to be coming back from the dead lately."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Xanatos. *She notes, eyeing him, then turns to Angela* Is that right?
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Oh, oh, Angela, tell her who the president is now!
<Nyaomi> <Chii> That was all me, too, obviously
<Luci> ANgela> "Dias is president."
<Xanatos`> <Kellin> Heh. The president is the best part.
<Luci> Angela> "And Warren actually retired."
<Xanatos`> <Xanatos> Oh whoa, she's super naked.
<Xanatos`> 6* Xanatos covers his eyes and fumbles around trying to find a robe.
<Nyaomi> * Xanatos is hit by a water bubble blast
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl growls
<Nyaomi> <Chii> MINE!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Dias is what?
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Dias. Is. President.
<Xanatos`> <Kellin> He's the goddamn president.
<Luci> Angela> "President. Of Earthgov."
<Luci> ANgela> "This also is not a prank."
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> You know, Hale considered running, but he said there were too many candidates already.
<Xanatos`> 6* Xan stands there dripping wet...the robe also now wet.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I-- *she calms down* Of course. Ha. *she gets dressed with a hospital gown* Allow me to catch up on events so I can make a comeback
<DeathStar> *She walks past them, patting Chii and Angela*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> ... *she tilts her head, fox ears drooping*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Poor momma
<Luci> Angela> "We'll get you a newspad."
<DeathStar> -PAUSE for 5 mins-
<DeathStar> -RESUME-
<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Ren and Reikana, at the computers, get a hit on their searches
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... Is that...?
<DeathStar> 6* She zooms in on the part of the moon colony that is still domed
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I think so!"
<DeathStar> 6* A camera picks up what looks like an explosion of power, and Ren rewinds frame by frame
<DeathStar> 6* Until there is a brief second of purple hair
<DeathStar> <Ren> I think she's still on the moon
<DeathStar> 6* Ren brings up reports and they all claim it was a gas leak explosion
<DeathStar> 6* Ren flags Hess and Chad
<DeathStar> <Ren> Hey, bosses
<Nyaomi> <Necia> That isn't... where moms are from, is it?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *does a search on the location where the blast happened(
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal moves over, filling in for Hess
<ChadWinters`> <C> You find something on X?
<DeathStar> <Vesta> I think so. *she notes, there instead of on the mobile base*
<DeathStar> 6* Ren squints at Mal, figuring Hess would want to know about her grandmother
<DeathStar> <Ren> I think X is still on the moon, in Dome City B
<Nyaomi> <Necia> What would she need there..? That crazy researcher isn't still there is she!?
<ChadWinters`> <C> Not an ideal place to engage her.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Maybe we cna get her to come back planetside?"
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf starts getting ready, just in case.
<DeathStar> <Ren> What would bring her planet side?
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Maybe. How long ago was this?
* ChadWinters` steps in to the the room after a bit. 1"That would be ideal. Depending on her mental state, she could ripple someone outside the dome.
<DeathStar> <Ren> About 2 hours ago
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Is it possible she could already be planetside then?
<ChadWinters`> Someone challenging her. She wanted to be the best.
<Sathen> *Rea walks in and stops behind Ren* Unless you engage her using those that can survive without oxygen...which might provoke a greater response.
<DeathStar> <Ren> The only person she might come down is for Hess, and Hess is strained already after the Em battle
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Winters, that's where the Gemini Project was carried out, the pseudo NGD-Dragoon conception
<kalonZombie> <Mal> ...What if we use dad as bait?
<ChadWinters`> Kaleb then. 6He looks over at Ren
<kalonZombie> <Mal> She might still be pissed over being shot.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What could she get there?"
<Xanatos`> <Saf> I think she understands that she could take Hale out relatively easy.
<DeathStar> <Female Voice> I think you underestimate Kaleb
<Nyaomi> <Necia> What would she want from there-- unless she's looking for a way to evolve something to affect all dragoons?
* ChadWinters` glances towards the female voice
<DeathStar> <Vesta> She might have used it to help her evolve
<Xanatos`> <Saf> She's more interesting in power. 6* She notes, glancing up to the voice.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks up, wearing a white uniform, looking sleek and meanacing
<Sathen> *Rea turns and looks at the voice, his hands staying slightly behind him*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Kaleb was the son she abandoned, right?
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Hey Cheryl how's it... wait, Cheryl?!
<ChadWinters`> They had a reconnecting. It's possible she still has an attachment
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *She bends over, hair in a ponytail* I doubt she'd come down to battle him. If anything she'd run from such a concep
<Luci> Angela> "Yep. Dias raised him off in secret."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Well... that's not good. The Gemini were made to be the pinnacle of dragoon potential is strength and calculation, but purposely split to not give it to one single being; instead mothers were to work in tandem
<Nyaomi> <Necia> If she could adapt it to herself... would that be like fighting mommas ... bonded?
<ChadWinters`> Not wasting any time getting back at it I see. 6He nods to her.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Maybe
<Xanatos`> <Saf> The current X, based on how everyone is reacting, is definitely not the currently reformed family person. I believe her running from that commitment isn't a reach.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Of course not. It's good to see you're back. I knew you couldn't keep running forever
<ChadWinters`> She might fight Dias, I'm on her bad side. Hale shot her.
<Luci> Angela> "Like she'd take time to rest after waking up."
* ChadWinters` pauses, studying her for a bit.
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Who's the most overpowered person we have? Send them after her.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If she wants to fight someone, I'll go up there
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns and walks off for the hanger
<ChadWinters`> Hold up Cheryl.
<Sathen> Rea> It is possible, all indications are that those infected aren't acting in what would be considered 'conventional' or 'reasoned' ways.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren eyes Reikana
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes?
<Luci> Angela> "Alone? You just woke up!" *she follows*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...what?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What better way to test out my capabilities?
<DeathStar> <Ren> Grandma plans to go up there to battle her...?
<ChadWinters`> One, you're not going alone. Two, it'd be best we get her down here
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "That is what she said., but that Chad guy is scheming right now."
<Sathen> *Rea will look between them and wait for a moment*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I suppose so. Fine. Tell her I'm back and issue a challenge. *she grabs a comm and talks to Cassandra and lorelei*
<Luci> Angela> "You should be careful... there's testing and then there's pushing yourself needlessly. I'm at least going to act as a healer."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll mee her alone at these coordinates. *she tells Ren and Reikana what to transmit to the dome*
<ChadWinters`> Here's a location then. 6He mentions cooridnates to a field that's away from any cities
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Oh, what if we could convince here there was something even more kickass than a Gemini thing down here cooking in a tank somewhere?"
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Excuse me, Cherry?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Soemthing she'd need to come down to and add to her arsenal or whatever she does with it."
<Luci> Angela> "Chii, tell her she's not going alone." *she huffs*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I got a plan, Chii. Trust me. You'll like it
<Sathen> Rea> I'm going with as well...give her a couple of knowns and toss in an unknown variable.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grins like a deadly predator
<Nyaomi> <Chii> I already don't, so what makes you think so?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Then come with me and see for yourself
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Now I do
<Nyaomi> * Chii thumbs up
<DeathStar> *Cheryl pulls Chii along, while Ren transmits the coordinates
<DeathStar> <Ben> What is mom up to...
<Luci> Angela> "I'm coming too." *she huffs again and follows*
<Sathen> *Rea will move along behind Angela*
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na follows wordlessly, Angela's secretary
<Xanatos`> <Saf> ...she wants to fight X. Should we follow her?
<ChadWinters`> Somethings off on her.
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Hell no.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If you want to come, Angela, you will remain here and wait
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And trust me.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> You'll just be a liability. There's no delay in us relaying thoughts-- you on the other hand...
<Nyaomi> * Chii waves a hand at Angela
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl says in a tone
<Luci> * Angela blinks. "I..." *she frowns* "Okay..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Good girl.
<ChadWinters`> I'm coming with.
<Luci> Angela> "I'm just worried about losing you again."
<Nyaomi> * Chii holds up a finger to Chad. "Hell no."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If she sees you, it's over. Stay here like Angela.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Wait for my signal
<Nyaomi> <Chii> One; I don't like you. Even if I don't shoot you on sight.
<ChadWinters`> Something's off with you Cheryl...
<kalonZombie> <Hale> Which will be?
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Two; there's no plans when you're involved.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> People get too paranoid.
<Luci> Angela> "Where's living computer girl. I want a satellite feed of the location!"
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Which one?
<Sathen> *Rea continues along behind Cheryl and Chii*
<Nyaomi> * Necia eyes Angela
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You'll know it when you see it
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> We could get the son-in-law to do it
<Luci> Angela> "Necia, there you are. Please get us a camera feed for this?"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl forms a mech with Chii and flies out of the hanger*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> He is back now
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *leans over to Ren* "That one is crazy, isn't she?" *indicates Angela*
* ChadWinters` glances at Chii then them leaving, he taps his comm, talking on it to someone as he moves off
<Nyaomi> <Necia> What am I, a holonet crew?
<DeathStar> <Ren> A bit. *She waits, and soon gets the sign of a ripple*
<DeathStar> <Ren> Apparantly X is taking it
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf looks to Ben
<Xanatos`> <Saf> What do you want us to do?
<Luci> Angela> "I'll give you all the steak and chocolate you can eat."
<Sathen> *Rea frowns in the hangar* And here I am without a pilot yet again... *Moves and starts prepping a shuttle for standby*
<ChadWinters`> Ben, I suggest you get Dias up to speed just in case this goes sideways.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Let her play like she wants. *he eyes the Mobile Base moving to coordinates near by*
<DeathStar> <Ben> Lorelei's team is moving too
<Nyaomi> * Necia rubs her neck, then mumbles and works on taking over surveilance, private and military to keep tabs
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "And so many video feeds to patch in too."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Sorta feels like we're being sidelined.
<Luci> * Angela gives Rei chocolate. "Patch lots of them."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Maybe she doesn't trust this many egos
<Luci> ANgela> "Yeah, well, try being her little sister. You get used to being sidelined. But she's just being protective."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Hey Vesta....
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Yeah?
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Angela, be sure not to run your steak house out of business fulfilling your promise.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> ... Mom's watching. But I don't recognize the lines she's using.
<ChadWinters`> Cheryl doesn't seem right in the head, when she mentioned me, she talked in a way that was more surprise I was around then knowing I was.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Free candy too. Awesome." *noms choco*
<Sathen> Rea> <comm> Can we get live feeds directed to all parties so we're kept in the loop, and if people are wanting to be ready why don't they come down and join me at the shuttle so we can take off on a moments notice?
<DeathStar> <Ben> She took a lot of damage
<Luci> Angela> "She's been awake like less than an hour Chad. SHe's just adjusting."
<DeathStar> <Ben> It may take time
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Locaton: Desert
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stands with Chii in the desert, dusting off her suit
<DeathStar> 6* When X ripples down, landing. X eyes Cheryl defiantly
<DeathStar> <X> I expected Hess, not a old used up Dragoon like you
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Then you shouldn't have any trouble, I guess!
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Otherwise that means you're getting washed up, fufufu
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm going to take you apart X, as a warning to everyone
<Nyaomi> <Chii> maybe the younger model is a better challenge
<DeathStar> <X> ... *She narrows her eyes, purple energy trailing off her eyes. She begins to power up, showing signs of Dragoon powers as she begins to steal Cheryl's powers when Cheryl lifts her hand up and snaps her fingers, signalling Cassandra*
<Nyaomi> <Chii> But would that be Kitty... or Hess?
<DeathStar> <X> You have a big mouth on you---
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *from the mobile base, she orders the base to fire on X*
<Luci> * Reese grumbles a bit but aims and fires.
<DeathStar> <X> *she takes a step forward, locking onto Chii and Cheryl when the mobile base decloaks and begins to bombard X, hitting her again and again with it's cannons*
<DeathStar> 6* X switching to shields as she is sunk into the ground
<Nyaomi> * Chii rubs her head, smiling. "Yeah, I'm kinda known for that..."
<DeathStar> 6* After the bombardment ends, Cheryl snaps her other finger's hand and Lorelei's team arrives on their bus and rams into X as she climbs out, sending her flying into a sanddune
<DeathStar> <X> You coward, fight me fairly
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's beneath me
<Nyaomi> <Chii> She is a general, you know. This IS how a general fights
<Luci> * Michelle fires a shocking arrow from the bus window.
<DeathStar> 6* X shakily tries to climb out as Lorelei climbs out of the van at the same time John teleports down from the mobile base
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Please surrender
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus teleports with John. Kellin steps out after Lorelei.
<DeathStar> 6* X tries to lock on, but too many begin to rush at her
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias appears next to Marcus and John
<Nyaomi> * Chii stands at the edge of the crater with John, one blade drawn and one gun drawn.
<Sathen> *Orihime teleports down after Marcus and Dias*
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Stand down, don't make me get involved. I don't fight for surrender. I fight for blood.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I doubt you can lock on. It's a flaw of the lock on system you stole from me just now
<Luci> * Michelle loads up another arrow as Truth steps out as well, armor completely manifested and swords glowing. Ready for round 2.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> And I like Kitty too much.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> X, just take a breath and relax.
<DeathStar> 6* X snarls and focuses, and dashes, beginning to flip and grabs John, hurling him at at Orihime
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes her watch and fires a flare for the Underground base to arrive with the Cure
<Sathen> *Orihime ducks beneath john, forming a fireball in her hand*
<Luci> * MIchelle aims and takes a shot at her leg with a tranq arrow as she's busy throwing John.
<DeathStar> 6* X jerks and uses her new hybrid form, growing wings to fly up and unleash hyper arrows at the group below, her leg dragging
<kalonZombie> 6*Ethan hangs back, not a combatant, but here to heal people if they need it
<Jackieness> <Myria> *rockets in her mini-mech across the sky and toward the fight*
<Luci> * Jennifer arrives and tosses Reese a pack of darts as he teleports down from the mobile base, loading the cure into his rifle.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias watches X launch arrows dowanwards and and begins moving around them
<DeathStar> 6* Eve dives into sand to avoid them
<Luci> * Angelos teleports out to provide a hyper shield against the arrows.
<Sathen> *Rea flies the shuttle down to land near the bus, letting the hatch open before it's even settled*
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin fires stun shots towards X once she gets up, Marcus does his best to avoid the arrows.
* ChadWinters` leaps out of the shuttle, the plate son his suit shifting about as he adjust into place.
<Sathen> *Orihime tosses her fire up in the air to explode into a dome above their heads and block the hyper arrows*
<Nyaomi> * Chii taps into Cheryl, using the lock on for X alone, not having the problem she'll have
<Jackieness> <Myria> *comm* "The cure will depower her when it takes effect, so if she's airborne... be ready to catch her!" *deploys the cure gun from subspace*
<Luci> * Reese takes aim with his cure loaded rifle.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> X, this isn't going to end well for you.l
<Nyaomi> * Chii brings up her hand and starts unleashing burst gunfire, sheathing her sword and forms seals one-handed, unleashing fire blasts with katon to follow up the fire, trying to corral her.
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus motions for Dias and holds his hands downward in a cup, so he can throw him up.
<DeathStar> 6* X begins to weaken from all the hits and flutters downward
<DeathStar> <X> Tch
<Sathen> *Orihime pops a small foxhole in front of Reese's weapon, smiling* Go ahead!
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias nods and runs then leaps at Marcus
<Luci> * Reese takes his shot as she flutters down, using Perfect shot to try and hit her with an injector dart.
<Sathen> *The opening of the foxhole popping up inches from X's stomach*
<Jackieness> <Myria> *pilots above X and then fires downward at said X*
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus catches Dias and and thrusts upward to throw him up towards X.
<DeathStar> 6* X tries to form a smile a small orb of super explosie power when she's hit, and the orb begins to fall down to those on the ground
<DeathStar> 6* X plummits
<DeathStar> <Eve> *peers up and scatters from the orb*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias grabs X as she begins to plummit, attempting to catch her
<DeathStar> 6* X is caught
<Sathen> *Rea moves towards the orb, focusing and holding a hand out towards it to nullify the energy (burning whatever he has to for it)*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias twists in the air, eyeing down at the orb. 1"That's not going to end well."
<Jackieness> <Myria> "Ruh-roh! Run away!" *rockets to escape a potential blast radius*
<Luci> * Angelos grabs those closest to him and teleports them to safety.
<DeathStar> 6* Rea nullifies it, but feels like all his nerves are burnt and are in pain
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus blink and begins to back up from the orb, frowning and glancing around to see how he can help Dias and X
<Luci> * Reese and Jennifer move to cover, already at a distance.
<Nyaomi> * Chii puts up her gun and forms seals with both hands, forming an earthen dome around herself and those who can't shield themselves.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks up and pats Chii's shoulder, peering at everyone, nodding
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Good job
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Doton-kai!
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias hits the ground hard, leaving a smallish crater and he pushes off running along and away from it with X in tow
<Luci> * Angelos thumbs up.
<DeathStar> <X> Ungh...
<Sathen> *Rea sinks to his knees, eyes squinted closed and a barely audible groan*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> How ya feeling?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *still on the mobile base bridge* "Go team."
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin watches from his spot by the bus for a minute.
<DeathStar> <X> *mumbles a barely heard curse*
<DeathStar> <Eve> I tghink Rea needs healing
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Yeah that's how I felt earlier. 6He comes to a stop, kneeling down and setting her down gently.
<kalonZombie> <Ethan> On it.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve eyes the sand all over her, twitching
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus moves up to check on Dias and X.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *comm* "WE do have med facilities up here if you need them."
<kalonZombie> 6*Ethan moves to Rea to heal
* ChadWinters` taps the back of his neck, his helmet opening up to expose his face
<Luci> * Jenniger moves over to check on Rea.
<DeathStar> 6* X seems to have purple like lines on her face still, making her look almost like the one girl in Tenchi Muyo after she powers up
<Sathen> *Rea is officially unconscious where he kneels*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ethan starts healing him with special spirit magic healing of his people
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> She looks rough, let's get her back to the base.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Still feel like fighting? 6He studies her and the lines
<Luci> * Truth has gotten back in the bus.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, now that is over, I'm heading back to base. I think it's time to do some in house cleaning of the teams and get my house repaired
<DeathStar> *X barely mumbles another curse, barely conscious*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Well, good job, mom
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> That's the X I remember.
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin hops back in the passenger seat.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> *She pats Aschae on the back, tossing her back onto the bus*
<Sathen> *Rea crumples to the ground when touched, not even a sound issued*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> And here we go. 6He shifts to lift her up under his arms
<Sathen> *Orihime waits for the teleport back up to the Mobile Base*
<Luci> ANgelos> "Good to see you back with the living, sis."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets onto the shuttle to head back home
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *would high five Ren back at the base*
<Luci> * Angelos nods, and gets back on Lore's bus.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It is definitely good to be back. And time for there to be some changes around here
<DeathStar> 6* Ren smiles and does a victory dance with Reikana
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Duality Side
<DeathStar> Location: The Future
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga takes a deep breath
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Are we ready to do this?
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix chirps and salutes.
<Sathen> *Jinx wrings her tail nervously* *softly* Afraid...
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Lets do it
<DeathStar> *Seniga pats Jinx* You can stay here. Riki and Cypher are back at the base
<DeathStar> <Seniga> We'll be back
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...ok...I'm like... super nervous."
<Luci> * Nellnods.
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga rubs her ears, then leaps through
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ looks at Jinx, then Nell
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl lets a bit sickly, since if things go too well, the paradox might erase her, and leaps through
<Luci> * Nell follow Seniga.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ moves through with Nell
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix points his arm up in a 'superman' pose and leaps after Seniga.
<Sathen> Jinx> I'm not leaving any of you! *jumping after LJ and Nell*
<Jackieness> <Bella> *walks toward the gate, gulping*
<Nyaomi> * When Cheryl and Seniga leap in, they're greeted by black butterflies that disappear as they pass through it.
<DeathStar> 6* As they move through the gate, it almost feels like they are moving through two tunnels. On the left side they are moving through 100 years, but on the right side they can see only 20 years moving. The 100 years are moving by faster compared to the 20 side. While they might not get it, their parents would. The 20 years side is the Net side. The side the people call the Truth. The real world. All the other names. Likely The Net touched the Network to some degree, though it never fully entered
<Jackieness> <Bella> *then leaps through*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> What in the world...?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Uhhh okay
<Luci> Nell> "So... that's what that thing meant..."
<Sathen> *Jinx latches onto LJ and Nell* No leaving me behind!
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Confusion! Confusion!
<DeathStar> 6* Finally they reach the end of the 100 years and end up on a Kumen that looks completely different. Near them are the others that went first
<DeathStar> 6* The Kumen of 100 years ago, shortly before the C'en invasion
<DeathStar> <Selena> We did it. We are in the past
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Cool
<Luci> Nell> "Wow... we came in right behind them?"
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix woots and poses.
<Sathen> *Jinx gulps and looks around, her mind immediately reaching out to feel at the thoughts of the parents*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...I... I made it?" *stands up and feels herself over*
<DeathStar> 6* The world looks a little faded right now, as if the color is drained
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Alright, let's get to work.
<DeathStar> 6* Behind them, the Time Gate is in the middle of Kumen, near the PResidental Building Tora ruled from, as if it were always there
<Luci> Luci> "So we just find ourself and... what?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What is that Wind said? To full integrate, we must cause the paradox. By not only warning outselves, but also stopping the invasion
<Xanatos`> <Simon> We were all taken unaware before, we know it's coming now so we need to do what we can to stop it.
<Sathen> Mykel> Easier said than done, some of us are on Geyze.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Indeed we were."
<Sathen> Maeryn> There was a bit of warning, a few days if I recall.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We will cross that bridge when it comes. Who knows how time works. This world seems a bit off.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "More importantly, we must ready the Aquarius."
<DeathStar> 6* Selena moves about, and it seems quiet and empty of people
<Sathen> *Kaylin looks about for the ship* Which is where?
<DeathStar> <Tora> I will head up to the palace to meet myself. <Sen> I will accompany myself.
<Luci> Luci> "So we warn ourselves and stop this invasion... how, blast the invaders as they come in?"
<Xanatos`> <Logan> I hope we didn't do something wrong. 6*He comments at the lack of people.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Likely the shipyard. Hopefully Erica from the future is there too
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I now possess sufficient intelligence and technical data to remodulate the Aquarius' weapons for lethal effect."
<Sathen> Mykel> We tried that and failed on Geyze, but we didn't know how to deal with their crystal devices. Any suggestions on that Wind?
<Xanatos`> <Logan> We should get to the club. 6He says to Asarar.
<Luci> Cookie> "If we stop them soon enough, they'll never get to Geyze."
<DeathStar> <Wind> I wouldn't worry. The world is not quite aligned right. When you begin to interact with your past selves, and the two Aquariuses begin to merge into one
<Sathen> Mykel> What if we shut down the rest of the gate system? Would that prevent their fleet from arriving?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Then lets' get moving so we are in position when the alignment happens."
<DeathStar> <Wind> The paradox should do a lot of the work for you. Plus the kids are here with you. This whole world is a world that should not exist
<DeathStar> <Wind> Just push it in the direction you want it
<DeathStar> <Wind> And make it reality
<Luci> Luci> "Alright, let's do this."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Cool.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Shame we can't take the fight to their home planet instead of them coming here.
<Sathen> *Mykel pulls his wives close* Back to school we go.
<DeathStar> <Wind> That is something you will have to worry about another time
<DeathStar> 6* Wind moves back through the time gate
<Sathen> *Jelly starts trudging off towards the Club*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Ummm... bye... Mister Wind..."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves through the time Gate, while the spirits form a circle, to use their powers to go to Geyze
<Sathen> *Kaylin will move to stand shoulder to shoulder with Shion as they look out*
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki continues on her way to the Aquarius, splitting a third way
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Let's go." *heads over to the spirits* "We'll catch a ride."
<Luci> * Cookie goes with Asarar.
<DeathStar> <Shion> *nods, joining with them, pulling Miyuki along, and Kasha and Kiichigo*
<Jackieness> <Airym> *moves after Yuki to the Aquarius*
<Luci> * Alita sticks with the Academy group.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon steps over to the spirits.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia goes with the Academy crew
<Jackieness> <Kira> *stays with Asarar on the way back to the club*
<Sathen> *Mykel guides his wives over to the Spirits, Maeryn following along with her pets*
<Luci> * Luci heads for the bar, Nell following her parents.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Sathen> *Kaylin smiles and squeezes Shions shoulder before she gets too far away* Good luck.
<DeathStar> Date: 1 day later
<DeathStar> 6* Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Ben slowly checks all the sick dragoons and Weapons, releasing them, then peers at Cassandra and her Dragon Killer
<Luci> * Tabetha remains nearby, since the DK likes her.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Hmmmm?"
<DeathStar> 6* B34 peers about, acting more oddly lately, grabbing people and holding them
<DeathStar> <Ben> What do you plan to do about the loli like killer?
<Luci> * Lisa mumbles and tries to flee the grabber.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok sits, quiet, staring into nothing with a blank look on his face
<Sathen> *Rea is unconscious in the medical bay*
<DeathStar> 6* B34 rubs her face on Lisa
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "A good question.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Feeling better? 6He peers at X
<DeathStar> <B34> ... *she seems to be getting upset, letting Lisa go*
<DeathStar> <X> I'm fine, just tired and waiting on my okay slip
<Nyaomi> * Mijiyu hands B34 a teriyaki kabob
<Nyaomi> * Mijiyu then hands Wyrd more, since food makes her happy.
<DeathStar> <B34> Are you B34's partner? *She asks Miyjiyu*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias eyes the medical chart upside down. 1"I wonder if I can sign off on it as president...
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> Partner?
<DeathStar> *Wyrd chomps, getting ready to go back to lorelei*
<DeathStar> <X> Probably
<DeathStar> <B34> Partner.
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> Partner like friend?
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Can't we start some social programs to help bring the dragoon killers up to speed?
<Luci> * Tabetha picks up Wyrd.
<DeathStar> <Ben> From what Necia dug up, the Dragoon Killers worked in pairs
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias reaches behind his back and pulls out a stamp. 1"The official seal of my presidency."
<Luci> Tabetha> "We need to give you a proper name, B34."
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> Will be Bea's partner.
<Luci> Tabetha> "How about... Beatrice."
<DeathStar> <Ben> If we're not careful, B34, who was tied to B33, who wasn't reprogranmmed, might begin to revert
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> Bea is bae." She nods.
<DeathStar> *B34 grabs Mijiyu* Imprinting
<Nyaomi> * Mijiyu blinks.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "We need Dias' help, I think."
<Luci> Tabetha> "Oh my... is she bonding her?"
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias stamps it, a picture of him punching left behind. 1"You're good to go then!"
<Xanatos`> <Saf> I can't imagine a scenario where we shouldn't also reprogram the rest of DKs
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> What imprinting!?" She looks at others for explanation
<DeathStar> <Ben> I guess they took the dragoon bonding idea and used it to work against the Dragoons. We went back to the facility and the DKs were gone. Someone with high authorization removed them all
<Luci> Tabetha> "Binding herself to you, in a way."
<DeathStar> <B34> You are now Bae's partner
<Luci> * Angela rubs her head. "SOmeone did WHAT?"
<Xanatos`> <Saf> ...you seem less concerned than I would expect. That seems like a very serious problem.
<DeathStar> *She looks content*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "No surprise. We could use Dias' presidential authorization to try to get us access to the papertrail."
<DeathStar> <Ben> I plan to look into it, but an EMP wiped out all footage and all the guards were killed
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> ..." She feeds 'bae' more.
<Nyaomi> <Mijiyu> Sure. Friends.
<Sathen> *Rea groans in medical, waking up to who knows what status the mad scientists have inflicted*
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Probably Sun VI
<DeathStar> <Ben> Maybe. I hope. I decided to bring some old people into the military before mom takes over.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias hangs the the chart up as he stands up from his chair. 1"Hess'll be happy that you can go home now."
<Luci> Angela> "Who?"
<DeathStar> <Ben> You all might remember Drake.
<Luci> Angela> "...Yeah I remember."
<DeathStar> <Ben> I decided to renew his status and have him work in the military again to figure out who might be dirty
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf doesn't remember anyone, but nods at the reasoning.
<DeathStar> <X> Thanks, Dias
<DeathStar> *X stands up and rips IV's out, getting dressed properly*
<DeathStar> *Erevis comms
<Sathen> *Rea opens his eyes to be greeted to X's birthday suit*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias quickly covers his eyes as he averts his gaze. 1"Kaleb will be happy too"
<DeathStar> <X> Make sure he comes over to see me
<DeathStar> *Cheryl answers as she does paperwork
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Erevis?
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I'll let me know you're heading home soon. 6He holds up his thumb
<DeathStar> <Erevis on comm> Cheryl, have you heared from Ariel? <Cheryl> no, why? <Erevis> She's gone missing the last 24 hours. I know she went down to Earth to settle family matters, I thought maybe she went to talk to you or the grandkids
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I haven't seen her. I'll see if she's talked to Necia or Vesta
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Please find her. I'm worried about her book of prophecies
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I will
<Luci> * Angela tilts her head. "Resolve family matters, then up and vanishes?"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl ends the transmission and assigns Saf and Reikana to search the area around the base to find Ariel*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Sounds familiar.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...man..." *heads to one of the exit hatches out of the base*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ariel is infamous for it. But check with the grandkids to see if she showed up
<Luci> Angela> "Just interesting she'd try and come at all..."
<Sathen> Rea> This hurts as bad as one of Ariel's so called 'training sessions'...*closes his eyes to try and forget the pain*
* ChadWinters` steps out of the hanger, his hand lowering from his ear
<Luci> * Angela nods and makes a few calls to the various grandkids.
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf blinks at her orders from Cheryl and moves off to do it.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Yeah, she stopped by and talked to me. She then planned to talk to Necia, momma eluere, momma Curali, then grandma Cheryl
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Duality
<DeathStar> Location: Geyze Academy
<DeathStar> 6* The group arrives in a faded Academy
<Luci> Alita> "Still weird."
<DeathStar> 6* They would see hardly anyone there except their past selves, who seem to be in a heated meeting about something
<Luci> Talia> "Weird still!"
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Weird st-
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon peers around quickly, then pauses and tries to hear what the meeting is about.
<Luci> * Talia looks proud.
<Sathen> *Mykel looks around to see if he can get a feeling of how long they have before the actual invasion*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia narrows her eyes at Talia, she has made a powerful enemy this day
<Luci> * Talia looks cute and paws.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...does anyone recall this moment?"
<DeathStar> 6* Qui and Gwen are there. Poor Gwen. Qui eyes her real leg on her past self
<Luci> Alita> "Gwen..."
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be shortly after the shield came down
<Sathen> Maeryn> Weren't most of the conversations we had as a group heated?
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> If we're here to muck up the past anyway we may as well warn them about Gwen
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We are here to create a paradox, so yes. How do we do this?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... *sigh*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy steps forward and holds up a hand.
<Luci> Alita> "Do we just... get close I suppose?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Yo. How's it going, guys?
<Sathen> *Mykel looks at the table to see if there's anything there that might clue them in as to what precisely the meeting is about*
<DeathStar> <Shade> I imagine we should just walk forward.
<Luci> * Alita nods, moving forward.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Greetings from the future." She waves, having her wild, longer hair that the present group has never seen her with
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *nods and then approaches her counterpart*
<DeathStar> 6* They seem to be talkng about about a warning from Yuki
<Sathen> Mykel> I guess we should all get in and do this... *Starts moving for his younger self while Maeryn does the same*
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon steps forward and crosses his arms, he's probably grown the most in age, at least half a decade older than before and he's sporting a beard and a ponytail.
<DeathStar> 6* Their past selves turn toward them. They would fear the air cracking, as their past selves do not exactly respond
<DeathStar> *feel
<DeathStar> 6* It's almost like time is cracking to a stop
<Xanatos`> <Simon> This feels very wrong.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Wind said to give it a push in the direction we wanted. So lets push it. Tell them what we want them to know
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon nods ands steps forward.
<Sathen> Mykel> We haven't created the paradox yet.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "What do we need them... us... to know?"
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Aliens are coming to kill you all.
<Luci> * Alita nods. "The C'en are coming to attack, the two planets have to prepare and unite or they will fall!"
<DeathStar> <Qui> The focus of the attack will be the Academy to capture Miyuki
<DeathStar> <Qui> And kill the spirits
<Sathen> Maeryn> Shion has an alternate self who's a total little bitch and deserves a beat down.
<Luci> Alita> "And during the battle... Gwen falls. He must be protected."
<Xanatos`> <Simon> The C'en use gates to quickly travel between plants.
<Xanatos`> (Planets)
<DeathStar> <Shion> *leans on her staff, peering at MAeryn*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "They fear and hate the spirits and will seek their destruction after the conquest."
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Qui watch out, your leg also goes missing in the battle.
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I look good in a beard. But all of geyze is wastelanded. You have to stop them.
<Sathen> Mykel> The C'en themselves are led by elites who are copies of people from the other reality, Miyuki and Shion's reality; these legendaries are connected to Centerpoint.
<Luci> Alita> "Liara and her wife will be engulfed in crystal, they must be taken to safety. This all only matters if the invasion is not stopped though."
<Sathen> Maeryn> What? I haven't had a chance to do it myself, so I'm hoping my younger self will be able to.
<DeathStar> 6* As they walk, they would feel like gears on a clock begin to move and almost like glass on a pane shatters
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Club
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy frowns, then pulls at spirits she feels to create a visible disturbance
<Nyaomi> ohbeh
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar walks in and looks around
<Luci> * Luci peers about too.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan glances around.
<DeathStar> 6* The area faded with only their past selves moving
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal looks about
<kalonZombie> *Max
<DeathStar> 6* Talking about what Tora told them of the ships coming
<DeathStar> <Seniga> You all look kinda young
<Xanatos`> <Logan> It was a long time ago
<kalonZombie> <Max> I've barely aged a day. 6*He says, looking quite a bit bigger actually
<Sathen> *Jelly moves around the bar area* So would you if you were frozen in crystal for 60 years.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Younger and I hadn't squeezed out Bella yet by then."
<DeathStar> 6* As they move in talking, their past selves turn to eye them, the area making a cracking soud as they freeze
<DeathStar> <Asarar> As they suppose to do that?
<Luci> * Luci moves forward to herself, pulling out a note.
<Sathen> Jelly> I'm still not gonna let you live down the fact that you just about crushed my hand during that!
<kalonZombie> <Max> I guess so
<Luci> Luci> "I think we tell them what we want them to change. Inform them."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What do we need to say? What is most important?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey, past me, get shirts without holes in them, they're way warmer. Also, there's an invasion incoming.
<Sathen> *Jelly glances at Asarar* Atleast I got a handful of the boss's ass...so where do we begin?
<DeathStar> *Asarar muses, then begins to tell them how the space battle will go, and about the future*
<Luci> * Luci starts telling herself a lot of information on C'en she knows, weak points, how to fight them. Where the safe houses are and where people got seperated.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan points out that he grows old, alone, but adds to the information about the gates and the legendaries leading the C'en.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max tells himself how best to fight the C'en, since fighting's what he's good at
<Luci> * Luci also warns them of events that occurred leading up to the invasion, who the mole was, Cloud's impending death, everything she wanted to change.
<Sathen> *Jelly starts listing off little bits of technical info to his past self, info he got when he was looking at the C'en tech Cheryl had brought for him*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *tells her counterpart the best ways to fight and kill C'en*
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Bix: New best friend! 6He says whether they can actually hear him or not.
<DeathStar> 6* After a long time, they too get the shattering moment and soon find themselves with the others, only instead of a faded world, it's colored. And the day of the invasion, with warning claxons going on
<Jackieness> <Kira> *also through in some tips for dealing with pregnancy as well...
<DeathStar> <Selena> It didn't work?
<DeathStar> 6* Shade makes a frustrated noise, pulling Tenebrae close
<Luci> Luci> "I... I don't know... I gave them everything I knew about the C'en. Even how to take them down."
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan frowns
<Luci> * Luci pulls Nell close.
<Sathen> Jelly> So...should we do what we did last time and go power up those shield devices?
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Did we miss something?
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius can be seen lifting off to head to Geyze
<kalonZombie> <Max> Maybe the invasion is supposed to happen, but they're supposed to lose?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I-I don't know. *she notes when Seniga grabs her, shaking her*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It was Wind's idea, not mine
<Luci> * Luci eyes the Aquarius, trying to se if it's different.
<DeathStar> 6* It looks the same. Selena puases, then points at the enter of the city
<DeathStar> <Selena> Wait, look
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What?" *looks over*
<Luci> * Luci looks over.
<Sathen> Jelly> Let's get to the President's place and see if we can make a difference from there.
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon and Logan but look
<DeathStar> 6* The Time Gate is still there
<Luci> Cookie> "Why's the time gate still there...?"
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...what supposed to happen?"
<Jackieness> what = that
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, a second Aquarius begins to fly and unsteadily tries to hover over the Club
<Luci> Luci> "Wha...?"
<Sathen> *Kaylin ponders this from beside Cookie as she pulls out her rifle*
<kalonZombie> <Max> Oh hey!
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Crazy lady!
<Sathen> Kaylin> I believe our ride is here...
<Xanatos`> <Logan> That...doesn't look stable.
<Luci> Luci> "Well, she's old."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...ok...they look hammered."
<DeathStar> 6* The group is teleported one by one
<DeathStar> 6* Up onto the bridge
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki peers over from the Captain's seat
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Sorry we're late, we've spent the last 3 days upgrading under Airym's new guidelines
<DeathStar> 6* Selena peers around
<Sathen> *Kaylin immediately stows her rifle and moves for the tactical station; powering up the ships modified weapons systems that Airym spent years tinkering with*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> So it's on to the blast them to smithereens part?
<Jackieness> <Airym> *stands at her normal station* "The C'en will not be expecting our surprise."
<Luci> Cookie> "Ready to kick butt!"
<Xanatos`> <Simon> I really missed this ship.
<Luci> Cookie> "She's a bit heavier isn't she?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Tenebrae, we need you to enter the new weapon spot Airym made for spirits. It's too strong for Mireille
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Haha, thought you'd never ask.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Mireille will continue to operate the standard OS
<Xanatos`> <Logan> Doesn't take a lot of people on this ship to run it, what are the rest of us to do?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> However, I'm a hybrid. Have Mireille and Yulindhe lend me power like they did for my mamas at times.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> One reason we're unsteady, we don't have a full crew
<Luci> * Cookie grins and readies to take them up. "Now we do."
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix walks around the ship excitedly poking and exploring
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae sticks her tongue out out and gives a peace sign
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Even the standard weaponry have been modified with spirit nodes."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Can I shoot the big guns?!
<kalonZombie> <Max> I wanna shoot the big gun!
<Sathen> *Kaylin will begin setting up targetting sequences for the C'en ships based off of her memories of the original invasion*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We found a few disturbing things when we went to check out the Aquarius. One thing, the other Aquarius had changed a lot. There was no Erica as Captain anymore, which led to a lot of paradoxes. also, it was a lot more powerful, perhaps due to what you guys did
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon smiles and moves off toward engineering, having learned a lot while staying out of the cryo tubes.
<Sathen> Kaylin> Negative, I'm familiar with the systems here.
<Luci> Luci> "I may have mentioned weapon loads needed and a few other things."
<kalonZombie> 6*Max narrows his eyes at Kaylin, she has made a powerful enemy this day
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Apparantly, according to history, I always was Captain, which makes no sense
<Xanatos`> <Logan> We lost Erica? Hm, that's not good.
<Luci> Cookie> "It is a bit weird."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> That might be a paradox
<Luci> Cookie> "Especially since we arrived in this reality on the ship after it launched with a Captain... bleh."
<Sathen> *Kaylin looks back at Max and narrows her eyes in silent response* I do have bigger guns than you...
<Xanatos`> <Logan> We...I don't think we have time to look more into it.
<Luci> COokie> "Right, are we ready for Operation Butt Kicking, Yuyu?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Max keeps his eyes narrowed as he slides into another gunnery station
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki points ahead as they move ahead. Up ahead, the other Aquarius, picking up the others, looks like it's more armored and powerful, having spirit weapons and guns from both worlds teaming up in time, and works on the attack. Yuki has them move up to join them
<Luci> * Cookie moves the ship as ordered.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If we can defend them for just ten minutes longer then we did last time, this paradox might happen
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan looks for a position to fill.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki motions Logan to shields
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan nods and hops on shields.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Ready to Tenebrae? Power us up now.
<Luci> * Luci sits down at comms.
<DeathStar> (OG For Tenebrae
<Sathen> *Kaylin returns her attention to the targetting sequences* I suggest pre-emptively targetting and launching warheads at the point where the C'en vessels enter regular space.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *taps on her console* "I am priming the resonance generators. This should weaken their crystalline technology."

<DeathStar> *The ships moves faster and the shields now can be expanded to hit the ships. There are 12 of them ahead*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Fire at will
<Jackieness> <Airym> *transfers a firing solution to weapons control* "You may fire when ready."
<Sathen> *Kaylin smiles and complies, cycling a new set of targeting sequences*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max fires
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan expands the shields if that's what he's supposed to do?
<DeathStar> 6* The 12 ships begin to move in at the other Aquarius and them, trying to hit them with the crystal weapons that destroyed so many before. The shields smash the crystals back into the ships, blowing them up, and Kaylin and MAx take out others, along with the other Aquarius. The masterful C'en ships blow up. However, onee insane one comes flying in, that looks erratic, and Ariel's face appears
<DeathStar> <Ariel> I'll get you! i'll kill you all! Tenebraeeeee! Seniga!!! Jinx!!!
<DeathStar> *she spits a the screen*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Sis..
<Sathen> *Jinx sticks out her tongue and blows raspberries*
<DeathStar> *the ship spins all crazy like to avoid being hit, moving in to ram them*
<Xanatos`> <Bix> Ariel: Forgot Bix!?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Bring it, you close-minded, bitch. Have you ever once just thought to yourself
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> WHAT IS IT YOU WANT!?
<Luci> * Cookie takes an evasive manuver.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Ah, she did find a way to survive the blast."
<DeathStar> 6* It's crystals moving like sswords*
<DeathStar> <Ariel> You kill you all!!!
<DeathStar> <ARiel> Hahaha. *she laughs, spittle flying from her lips*
<Sathen> *Kaylin targets it and fires*
<Luci> Cookie> "Gun her while I move us."

<kalonZombie> 6*Max fires as well
<Jackieness> <Airym> "She is vulnerable."
<Luci> * Cookie angles them for a kill shot.
<DeathStar> 6* Ariel's ship begins to explode, crystals flying apart.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan makes sure that shield is a workin
<DeathStar> <Ariel> no! I am immortal!!!
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae extends her power through the ship, pulling at the "shadow" in space to make them like a tenebrous beast.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> How does an immortal taste?
<Sathen> Jinx> Shut up! You're not immortal!
<Jackieness> <Airym> "No, you should not exist."
<Luci> Cookie> *peers for other ships while Ariel raves*
<DeathStar> *The shield contains her, and Ariel screams in impotent rage as she is Tenebraed. At that moment the workd cracks, ten minutes up
<DeathStar> 6* And the paradox effect hits. All the C'en ships being wiped out
<Luci> Luci> "We... did it?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> Did we do it? Did we win?
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan keeps quiet, peering around carefully.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *runs scanners* "I am gathering data now."
<Sathen> *Kaylin looks at the sensors to ensure the C'en ships are gone, then turns to look at Cheryl*
<DeathStar> 6* Shade makes a face, and tries to hug onto Tenebrae. At that moment, the world seems to break apart. Back to the day of the invasion, only now, the invasion never happened
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Uaaa... I'm tired, but full." She licks her lips.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki peers around as things begin to rewind and the C'en are erased.
<Sathen> *Jinx clutches at LJ and Nell*
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan blinks a few times and glances around, checking his data reader.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's happening. *The kids begin to fade back to their future time line. The Time Gate sucking them back in*
<Luci> Nell> "Wh-What's... happening?"
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Whooooooa~"
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ holds Nell and Jinx's hands tight
<Sathen> Jinx> I want my mommies!
<DeathStar> <Seniga> It's happening. *However, those with past counter parts like Selena and Tenebrae would find themselves being forced back into their past selves, like the adults*
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix holds up his arms, pivoting his hands up and down in a wave
<Luci> Luci> "Nelly?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *hugs onto Bella* We'll meet again kiddo
<Xanatos`> 6* Bix blinks and is not pulled through the gate then!?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> See you later, Seniga-lover!
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> We'll go find her, right, Selena?!
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Tenebrae?! Wh-Why
<DeathStar> <Selena> Sure.
<kalonZombie> <Max> We'll see her again Luci.
<kalonZombie> 6*He rubs her belly
<DeathStar> *Seniga reaches to nab Tenebrae, when she vanishes back into the Time Gate*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Time means nothing to me. Keep safe." She smiles, looking a bit sad.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *puts her arms around Bella too* "...not too long from now..."
<Luci> Luci> "Soon... Nelly."
<DeathStar> 6* Selena fades away, and Shade holds onto Tenebrae as she fades away
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae smiles at Selena. "You'll probably forget. But I'll remember for all of us.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Not fair...
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Ha ha, as if you could resist my charm. I'll be back!
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan and Simon totally say goodbye to their children. Oh wait.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> And momma," She notes to Vyvy. "Tell grandmother she was wrong. I found a way."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks, tilting her head, but nods, too choked up to speak a reply.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Maybe Nell and the others will still be in the future. We don't know.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *she leaps through the time gate to be with her friends
<Jackieness> <Bella> *starts to slip from asarar and Kira and through the gate*
<DeathStar> *Asarar clings to her hand until she can't anymore, then finally the white light finishes and time finishes*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Date: 5.17.5991
<DeathStar> Location: The club
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar leaps up from the counter where she was asleep, peering around. Cypher lifts her head, eyeing her, naturally remembering nothing - her future self choosing to remain after all
<DeathStar> <Cypher> What....? <Asarar> Bella! The kids. <Cypher> Are you okay?
<Luci> * Luci yells out something about a Nell. Looking about confusedly as she sits up.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan slowly pushes himself up, half in a booth, half in the floor. He umphs as he hits his head, slowly sitting up and rubbing his face.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *stands up from a barstool, clad in her usual red, slinky dress... she doens't say anything as she wipes her eyes and walks for the elevator*
<DeathStar> *Ymir cat naps*
<Sathen> *Jelly drools in his sleep on the other side of the table from Logan, his hand clenching like its gripping a butt-cheek*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> ....
<kalonZombie> 6*Max blinks, looking around
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I feel like I'm missing something
<kalonZombie> <Max> ...Hey, Luci, weird thought, but I just thought of a good name for our kid.
<Xanatos`> <Logan> You don't remember? Oh wait, you stayed...
<Luci> * Luci peers down at herself and frowns, noting her body younger again, feeling it softly. "Nell?"
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves into the back to wash her face
<Sathen> Jelly> *mummbles* Boss Lady...hell of an ass...
<kalonZombie> 6*Max blinks "...Guess you felt it in the bond
<Luci> Luci> "Seem you aren't remembering everything..." *she gets up and shakes her head, moving to the mirror, since she basically sees Nell in it*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher turns on the news, where there is talk about a strange Time Gate in the middle of the Presidental Square that doesn't react to anyone
<Jackieness> <Kira> *rides the elevator up to the penthouse and steps off, needing some quiet...
<Luci> * Luci checks the news feeds, then rushes down to find Asarar.
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan pauses and stands up.
<Sathen> *Jelly will slowly wake up and look towards the newsfeed* Oh...that things still there? Guess we'll need to deal with that now too...
<Xanatos`> <Logan> That should be gone. Call Kira and Asarar.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I wonder...
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Xanatos`> 6* Logan pings Kira
<DeathStar> Location: Geyze
<DeathStar> 6* The team would find themselve back at the Academy
<DeathStar> 6* Shion sits up and looks around
<DeathStar> <Shion> We're back. She hurries down the stairs, looking out
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia stretches
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *sets down the book that she suddenly found herself holding*
<Sathen> *Maeryn falls out of her hammock bed and looks around, then at the baby dragon whelpling in the corner*
<DeathStar> 6* Selena walks about, no longer 2 years old, but looking more like 5. She searches, but finds no sign of Celes and Liana still. She slumps
<Luci> * Alita peers around, then rubs her face and sits on Mykel.
<Sathen> *Mykel stretches with his wives*
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... *she slams her fist down on a table
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon looks at his beardless face and his lack of muscles in a mirror and slumps.
<Luci> Alita> "We're younger, and have kids to make."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Selena?"
<DeathStar> 6* Shade emerges from her bedroom to find Vyvy
<DeathStar> <Selena> They are still gone. Why did they not return. *She hiccups*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "..." *stands suddenly* "...Celes?! Liana?!"
<Sathen> Mykel> Yes...we do dear one.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy seems to be sketching, something she hasn't done in years
<DeathStar> 6* Selena sits, not used to child like emotions anymore, hand on her face. Sasha would find Celes and Liana's rooms empty
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia grabs Mykel by the collar of his shirt and drags him to their room
<Sathen> *Maeryn scoops the whelp up into her arms and goes out to peer at Sasha* Why are you bellowing?
<Xanatos`> 6* Simon steps out of his room and looks confused at Sasha.
<DeathStar> *Shade puts Vyvy's hand on her stomch
<DeathStar> <Shade> Feel
<Sathen> *Mykel will turn and princess carry Ceilia the rest of the way*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *looks into the room and then steps back* "...Kito! Delgi!"
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sets her pen down and obliges Shade, smiling softly.
<DeathStar> 6* Both appear, bowing to Sasha
<DeathStar> 6* Vyvy would feel twins
<DeathStar> <Shade> I believe a miracle has happened
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Where is my sister?!"
<DeathStar> <Kito> ... She is missing? <Delgi> She was here this morning. *both move off to look*
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Anyone see Gwen?
<Sathen> Maeryn> I don't know! What, do you think I had something to do with it? Always blame the Aent!
<DeathStar> *Gwen emerges from his room, looking baffled at smoething
<Xanatos`> <Simon> You alright, man? 6* He says to Gwen
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I-I'm remerged with Qui. *he pulls at his hair* How? How!? The curse was broken
<DeathStar> <Gwen> The amazons are going to so kill me again for being merged with their queen
<Xanatos`> <Simon> Uh. A lot has happened, sit down I'll tell you about it.
<DeathStar> *Gwen follows, like a man on death row*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Luci> * Alita peeks out at the yelling Gwen-Qui.
<DeathStar> Next to last scene
<DeathStar> Location: Aquarius
<Sathen> *Maeryn moves over to stand behind Gwen* I could always help you overcome your fear of the Amazons Gwen.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki sits in the Captain's chair, eyeing a history book of how Yuki was always the Captain of the ship. She tries to rememby, feeling it's wrong. There was a woman she loved besides Saorise, right? A heroic woman who led them all
<DeathStar> <Yuki> ... This can't be right. *She eyes her stomach, no longer pregnant right now* I can almost feel her name on the tip of my stomach
<DeathStar> *tongue
<Luci> * Cookie frowns, having tried to find the missing info in Yuki's thoughts already and failed to fill in the blank herself. She frowns. "Things are off... definately."
<Luci> Cookie> "I can feel you feeling it's off... and I know it is. Just not sure how."
<Jackieness> <Airym> *remains oddly quiet as she works at her station*
<DeathStar> *Yuki tosses the book aside, moving to the front of the bridge, staring out as the Aquarius is reoutfitted with the lastest tech*
<Sathen> *Kaylin sits at the tactical station, monitoring the status of the weapons, shields and such* Perhaps it's a programming malfunction?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Maybe so
<Luci> Cookie> "I just know the logic is wrong. How can we have come from home AND you be the Captain of this ship?"
<Sathen> *Kaylin stares at Yuki* I didn't think you'd actually agree with that suggestion...
<DeathStar> 6* As they all talk, Mireille moves to her private room and holds up her hands, where bright blue sparkles dance, and in them the face of Erica can be seen. She closes her hand, as if protecting the sparkles*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> the previous Captain must have died and I took over
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But I wish I remember who the Captain was
<Luci> Cookie> "I guess that makes sense."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It bugs me. Was she someone who got thrown into our world like so many of the crew
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Oh well. *She moves back to work, not knowing Mireille has the key to the mystery
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Jackieness> <Airym> "You are only tired, captain. You should rest." *steps off of the bridge and says to herself* "...I am sorry for lying"
<DeathStar> Location: Outside the Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* Reikana and Saf find a blonde woman discarded
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf blinks and kneels, checking a pulse.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Uhh... hey?"
<DeathStar> 6* It's faint
<DeathStar> 6* Around her neck is strangle marks. She clutches in one hand a notepad
<DeathStar> 6* The hand clutches so hard the pad is nearly unmoveable
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Holy!" *comm* "We need help right away!"
<Xanatos`> <Saf> She's barely alive, let's go. 6* Saf picks her up, not noticing the notepad and moves back towards the base quickly.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl on comm> Understood. Sending help to your location
<DeathStar> 6* The pad flips open; it is the Guardia Oracle predictions of things that will happen. And on the first page is Ariel being strangled and left for dead. Whether she lives or not cannot be told on the page. The page also has her facing her past family problems she left to fester, the image showing them all coming back to strangle her
<DeathStar> -END-
<DeathStar> I hope you all enjoyed it
* DeathStar flops
* Jackieness flops on top
* ChadWinters` thumbs up
