<DeathStar> 10-637.3.13
<DeathStar> Location: Underground Base
<DeathStar> 6* A meeting has been set up, the large conference for both teams. So far Cheryl is not in. Ben leans in, seeing not either his second hands, Hess or Kaori, or his tech girl
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans back in her chair, playing with a small game unit
<Sathen> *Rea leaves the medical area from checking on Ariel, heading up to the conference room*
<Seraphna> * Lisa waves and works on setting up the meeting. While Angela, and Tabetha take seats.
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf chews on a piece of taffy, tapping her feet.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na, Mal, and Narok sit
<Seraphna> * An'Mi and Reese are seated while Thena serves people tea and biscuits, wearing glasses for some reason.
* ChadWinters` sits leaned forward in his chair while Cel leans against the back wall
<DeathStar> 6* Ren muses in her chair
<Sathen> *Orihime sits in fox form on the table, right in front of An'Mi*
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus let's out a sigh, rubbing his head slowly.
<Xanatos`> 6* Kane sits off to the side, datapad by his side as he waits patiently.
<DeathStar> 6* X taps on her datapad, fielding responses, then peers at you all
<DeathStar> <X> You are a sad bunch
<DeathStar> 6* X returns to her tapping
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *is already seated*
<Seraphna> Angela> "Ouch, X."
* ChadWinters` glances over at X, a slight brow raisd.
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> ssssh. Quiet voices.
<Sathen> *Orihime looks over at X and yip's at her*
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal grabs at his heart, as if he'd been shot
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *whispers to Ren* "Someone woke up on the b-i-t-c-h side this morning."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok just stares, not affected one way or the other
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na slides something to Angela to sign
<Sathen> *Rea takes a seat near Zephyr, looking around at those gathered and waiting*
<Seraphna> * Angela reads it carefully.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Maybe true.
<kalonZombie> 6*Just paperwork for the restraunt
<DeathStar> 6* X nods approvingly at Reikana
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks in, her white uniform all wrinkle and she looks a bit haggard so far. She pauses, glancing at them
<DeathStar> 6* Then peers at a watch on her wrist
<Seraphna> * Angela blinks a bit. "Everything okay Sis?"
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Cheryl... you look awful."
<Sathen> Rea> Running later than you thought?
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus slowly sits up and gives a laugh at Cheryl's appearance.
<ChadWinters`> She is getting old.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Need a vacation, sis?
<Sathen> *Orihime yips at both Cass and Rea*
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> Least I'm not the only one. 6* He pulls some aspirin out of his pocket and takes a few, rubbing his temples.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Paperwork. 6* She says, moving to the screen and takes a seat
<DeathStar> 6* Ben dims the lights
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> I know a few gitari who can help you with that if you want.
<Seraphna> * Lisa cues up the visuals.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Private paperwork. *she loads a chip she brought, apparantly keeping it on her person*
<Sathen> *Orihime flicks her tail at An'Mi, as if to tell her niece to pet her*
<Seraphna> * An'Mi pets.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Gitari secretaries are very discreet.
<DeathStar> 6* On the screen, an image of the Eve that Chad and Zephyr have been looking into. Zephyr sits up
<Seraphna> * Angela tilts her head curiously.
<Sathen> *Rea pays attention to the presentation, taking mental notes currently*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> How, how'd you---
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf takes out her datapad and prepares to take notes.
<ChadWinters`> I gave her my data I've been collecting.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Of course
<Xanatos`> 6* Kane arches a brow at the screen and glances between Chad, Zephyr, and Cheryl.
<DeathStar> *She leans back*
<Sathen> *Rea glances to Zeph* Upset that you were used by the old guy?
* ChadWinters` glances at Rea.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Let's just get on with it."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> This might lead us to Sun VI's downfall. Why are they looking into this Eve? She apparantly runs a female shelter. But I am also curious about is why she hasn't shown signs of clone degradation yet
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She's been alive for some time
<Seraphna> Angela> "Are we sure this one's a clone?"
<kalonZombie> <Mal> What else could it be?
<Sathen> *Rea smirks and returns his attention to the presentation*
<ChadWinters`> The original.
<Seraphna> Angela> "Yep."
<Xanatos`> <Kane> ...how?
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Pfft, how often do dead peopel turn up to be... ... actually you know what it probably IS the original
<Sathen> *Orihime nods her head while fu'ing from the pettings*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I doubt it, honestly, since this is the one Chad encountered long ago
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And new clones were made recently
<Seraphna> * Angela nods just a little.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha watches quietly, rubbing her eyes a bit.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But this clone has continued to prosper and Sun VI wants her, since this clone hasn't begun to go insane
<kalonZombie> <Narok> So we get to her before they do.
<Xanatos`> <Kane> How long have we been tailing her?
<Sathen> Rea> Do we know how *this* clone in particular was created? That might provide an indication as to why she hasn't degraded.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Half the people in this room have been dead at leats once."
<Seraphna> Reese> So we baggin' her first?"
<DeathStar> <Ben> Most of the dead people in here aren't the originals, Cass. Like John.
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus squints at Eve on the screen.
<Xanatos`> <Kane> I'm certainly not, either.
<Sathen> Rea> I doubt that we want to 'bag' her, it wouldn't be advisable to stress an already elderly lady.
<Seraphna> Angela> "True..." *she frowns*
<Seraphna> Lisa> "Hey I'm still me."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Anyway.
<kalonZombie> <Mal> I'm still me. I think. Maybe. ... Am I still me Momma A?
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> So Aya's daughter Eve looks a lot like her grandma?
<ChadWinters`> It's possible that she was created using the purest DNA and others were created off her. But like Cheryl says, if Zeph and I found her Sun VI will be going after her soon
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "This makes my head hurt! Just... just get to the plan!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'd like to have the team question her. She might have a link to the original.
* Nyaomi has joined #TAW-Session61
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> They have to keep her around somewhere
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That'll be your team, Chad
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns to Ben
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Your team in the mean time will time will be looking into Sun VI's military contracts - find out who was keeping them funding. I want you to work with Stacey and see who Steele and whatever Generals gave them bases
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We need to need to close the nets
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok nods
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Why not the entire team?
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus perks up at the mention of Stacey's name, glancing around quickly as if wanting to go on the kid team.
<Seraphna> * Reese nods, this seems personal to him.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Better to cover all bases. Anyway, *she hands Chad a vial* Bring back some DNA for me to study. It may lead to the real Eve
* ChadWinters` takes the vial, sliding it in to his tact belt
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well. I guess we're heading out west
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf writes a few things down and then puts the datapad away and glances to Ben, giving him a nod.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben lets out a breath
<DeathStar> <Ben> Reikana, can you find out how many on the team is available
<ChadWinters`> XVI should be keeping an eye on her current where abouts right now.
<Seraphna> Angela> "Sounds like we have our missions."
* Chaintan has joined #TAW-Session61
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Here!"
<Seraphna> * Reese sighs a bit at An'Mi acting like this is school role call.
<Sathen> *Ori yips along with An'Mi*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr heads off with the older team, while X leaves a note for Hess when she shows up
<Xanatos`> <Kane> I can provide remote support for both teams, comm if you need me.
<Seraphna> * Angela and Tabetha head out with the older team.
* ChadWinters` moves off with Zephyr
<Sathen> *Rea follows along with the older team*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That works. You can tag with Necia if she shows up
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na heads with Angela
<Seraphna> Lisa> "I guess you're working with me then, Kaney."
<DeathStar> <Ren> *looks shifty eyed at Necia's name, keeping secret still about her trying to break into one of Darien's mansions
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Let me see..." *pulls out her mobile and group texts the whole team*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash and Narok move with the younger team
<Xanatos`> 6* Kane nods and moves to his main console. Marcus stands up, gives a groaning stretch then walks after Zephyr and Chad. Saf quickly moves after Ben and team.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel moves after Saf and Ben's team
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves off, adjusting her wrinkled uniform
<Nyaomi> * A sprinkler jets Cheryl lightly, just a single spray, from love with Necia
<Seraphna> * Lisa moves over to the consoles to monitor things, while Reese and An'Mi head over to Ben and the rest.
<Sathen> *Orihime jumps from the table and runs to catch up with the rest of her team, jumping into An'Mi's arms to be carried*
<DeathStar> 6* For now, the camera focuses on Ben's team
<DeathStar> 6* Ren moves over, peering at Reikana
<Nyaomi> <Hope/Kiseki> *looking at each other* .. Who counts as 'older?'
<DeathStar> <Ren> So if we're going to investigate military contacts, where should we start?
<DeathStar> <Ben> Hm. *he muses*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *gets up and starts walking* "I... have no idea. I cna of figured they would switch the teams for this one..."
<Jackieness> cna == kind
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Public information would be the easiest.
<Nyaomi> * Necia walks in, looking sleep-deprived.
<Seraphna> Reese> "We have an in with my Dad, he's still active and supposed to be in charge of the military."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Starr's database.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Don't underestimate us.
<Nyaomi> * She waves her datapad, then yawns.
<Xanatos`> <Saf> We're to work with Stacey, correct? Why wouldn't we start there?
<DeathStar> <Ren> Y-You want to try to break in there? I mean, go back there? I mean, go ther the first time?
<Nyaomi> <Necia> No. I have the database, dummy. What are you talking about?
<Seraphna> * Reese pats Ren's head.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Mayeb the conspiracy theory sites... ... ..." *looks at Ren* "...that was a very specific denial*
<Jackieness> ."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Nothing. *she looks left* There's totally not a masked guy in one of his mansions that we tried to break in*
<Seraphna> An'Mi> Stacey! Let's go.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok eyes Ren
<Nyaomi> <Necia> After he was murdered, I downloaded what was left from the mansion that was demolished. We'll pair up with Stacey, since she access to Venerator's and the Steele family we /don't/ have and cross-reference off the books sort of things until we find it.
<Seraphna> Reese> "Still oddly specific there babe."
<Nyaomi> * Necia twitches and whacks Ren with her datapad
<DeathStar> <Ben> uh...huh
<DeathStar> 6* Ren ows
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Wow... you are the worst at plausible deniability ever."
<DeathStar> <Ren> S-Sorry!
<Nyaomi> <Neica> Ren. Comm. Stacey. NOW.
<Nyaomi> * She glares.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren runs off
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "An'mi best secrets. Three words thing. Very hard talk."
<Sathen> *Orihime kons before jumping from An'Mi's arms and morphing mid jump into her human form, tussling her hair a bit* Sounds like somebody's in trouble already...
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal pats An'Mi's head
<DeathStar> 6* Ben leaves a message for Hess that they are about to go if she wants to join, getting into the shuttle
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> This team is definetly interesting. 6She nods to herself as she gets on to the shuttle
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf steps up into the shuttle and sits down.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Mother's still off-grid," she mumbles.
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok and Mal get into the shuttle
<Seraphna> * Reese and An'Mi board the shuttle. Thena tosses snacks after Ben and goes back to secretarying things. What that means remains a mystery.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *climbs into the shuttle while net searching for conspiracies involving transhumanist conspiracies and military contracts*
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Ben, should we contact her husband, for more taps into the Steele connections?
<Sathen> *Orihime boards the shuttle and decides to find a new seat in lieu of An'Mi...sitting in Cel's lap*
<DeathStar> <Ben> Sounds good. I'm letting Stacey know, now that she is on, to come out here and meet us. It seems the Steele military power is in his and Eluere's hands now
<DeathStar> 6* Ren whistles in her shuttle seat
<DeathStar> <X> Do I get to shoot some?
<Seraphna> * Reese takes a seat next to Ren and gives her a grin.
<Sathen> Orihime> Not unless we run into the Sun VI guys Madam President.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel glances over at X. 1"I suppose it is possible
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Come on, tinfoil hat whackos... don't let me down."
<DeathStar> <X> I like that title
<kalonZombie> <Mal> You would.
<DeathStar> *X leans back*
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "X run for? President."
<DeathStar> <X> I'd just make you all my subs
<kalonZombie> <Mal> That was a cheating way to talk and you know it, An'Mi.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben sighs and lifts them off
<Sathen> *Orihime adjusts a bit in Cel's lap, getting comfy* Not bad at all...And didn't you already serve as President?
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Easiest to vote. Just need X. On ballot."
<DeathStar> <X> My husband did
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Dynasty card."
<kalonZombie> <Mal> I think you might have to run against Dad. He's been thinking about it for a while apparently.
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Oh I didn't realize you were married.
<DeathStar> <X> He left on a journey to find himself. Somewhere in space.
<Xanatos`> <Saf> Ah. My condolences.
<kalonZombie> <Mal> ...X did you shoot Del into space?
<DeathStar> <X> No.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> ....Did Dias not do the same thing? 6She looks at X curiously
<kalonZombie> <Mal> No? ... Or Yes? 6*He asks, too sly for her
<DeathStar> 6* X shoots Mal out into space
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei pauses, leaning back in her seat, eyeing the scanners
<Sathen> *Damian sits in the back, going over the results of everybodies recent physical exam's and jotting down a few notes*
<DeathStar> 6* The scanners show readings beginning to go off the charts, and outside there is rambling
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor looks over at the scanners as well
<DeathStar> *rumbling
<kalonZombie> <Gor> What's going on?
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin keeps poking his fingers together, he pauses as Lorelei shift in stance and then glances around at the rumbling.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I think there is a reality quake beginning
<Seraphna> Si> "I didn't do it!"
<Nyaomi> <Aschae> Me either.
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Didn't my half-brother fall into a pit the last time one of those happened?
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Someone should start to get the children through the tleporters
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> We don't know how large it could grow
<Seraphna> * Michelle nods and moves off to send the kids to safety.
<Sathen> *Damian grabs his bag and heads off to do just that*
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor moves to help the children as well
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "And the rest of us?"
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei turns, watching.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Help the people evacuate
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes the spikes forming
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Not much we can do till we see the damage and can move to help people."
<Sathen> *Damian grabs hold of Aschae and drags her along since she's also counted as one of the 'kids'*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> We don't want them falling onto the other side
<Seraphna> * Angelos nods a bit.
<Seraphna> * Truth eyes the screen with a frown.
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael blinks, crying as she is dragged along
<Xanatos`> <Kellin> Yeah, falling into the other side would be dumb.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Yes. I am sure it is a dumb place.
<Seraphna> * MIchelle tries to comfort her. "There there kiddo, it'll all be over soon."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Rachael go see Momma H, she'll keep you safe
<Xanatos`> 6* Valen yells at the quake for making Rachael cry.
<Sathen> *Damian produces a lollipop for Rachael, smiling at her*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "We wish setermine the epicenter and prioritize it, working our way outward.
<DeathStar> 6* Rachael nods, sniffling as she is put on the teleporter
<Seraphna> * Sia clings to Rachael.
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Straight to Momma H, okay?
<Xanatos`> 6* Kellin laughs and nods to Lorelei.
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Okay,
<kalonZombie> 6*He smiles comfortingly at Rachael
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mid-West City
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks around the plain city
<DeathStar> <Katrina> *she studies her equipment, having brought it along*
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> Ya'll wanna git you a cowboy hat ta blend in?
<Sathen> *Rea stands quietly to the side of Zephyr, looking more at their immediate surroundings for anything that might be a Sun VI observation unit*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> ...That sounds stupid. But yes.
* ChadWinters` rubs his hand through his hair and then places a baseball cap on it and puts on a pair of sunglasses
<DeathStar> 6* Right now they are parked in a parking deck, on the top deck, directly across the women's center, which is rather large, a two story building that looks plain
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Rabbit ears kind of stick out.
<DeathStar> 6* Next to it is a hospital and beside it on the other is a fast food joint
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina puts on a sexy cowgirl outfit
<Seraphna> * Angela peers around, her hair up in a pony tail, shades on, but not working as hard to hide herself since it's been a very long time since she was relevant, so she just goes with casual to blend in. Tabetha wears civilian clothes over her tact suit, peering around.
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus lets out a huff and eyes the ceiling.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "...you know...they don't actually dress like that out here... right?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na takes the cowboy hat and shades and puts them on, her tail still visible
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I thought I would just amuse the bows
<DeathStar> *boys
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Riiiiiight."
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Oh it's amusing more than the boys~
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lets out a breath
<ChadWinters`> XVI said she should still be inside the center right. 6He lowers his left hand.
<Sathen> *Rea zips up his jacket after checking his blaster* Consider us amused and lets return our attention to why we're here.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr steps off the deck and falls down 4 floors to the ground
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina lugs her equipment, walking down
* ChadWinters` watches Zephyr fall and lets out a sigh and moves the normal way down, taking the stairs
<Seraphna> * Angela sighs and hops down after Zephyr, as does Tabetha.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na walks down the stairs as well
<Sathen> *Rea follows suit after Tabetha, no sense for the ladies to be left alone*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *heads on down*
<Nyaomi> * Hope shrugs and leaps down to a crouchlanding by Zephyr
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus walks along after them, the normal way.
* ChadWinters` glances at his datapad briefly and makes a face then shifts it away.
<DeathStar> 6* When they arrive, Zephyr seems to be debating how to enter
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Should I enter asking for services? *she pulls Chad in close* My boyfriend used his giant 12 inch penis on me?
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> So uh. All the dudes should just take up observation points, yeah? It being a women's center and all?
<Seraphna> * Angela snickers.
* ChadWinters` glances at Zephyr. 1"You could just try using the door.
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> Ew gross.
<Sathen> *Rea chuckles
<Nyaomi> * Hope jerks, then punches Zephyr in the kidney
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr goes down
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Can't..move..
<Seraphna> * Angela sighs and helps her sister up.
* ChadWinters` watches her drop then looks at Zephyr.
<Nyaomi> <Hope> STUPID MOTHER
<Sathen> Rea> Why not blame your wife...or your daughter in this case?
* ChadWinters` holds a hand out to her to help her up
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *facepalms*
<Seraphna> Angela> "Did a kid just lay you out sis?"
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Shhh, don't point it out.
<ChadWinters`> It's more believeable that I abused her than her wife.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Didn't...think...I needed kidneys...
<Nyaomi> * Hope crosses her arms and puffs her cheeks.
<Seraphna> Angela> "Everyone does. It's how we booze, I think."
<Nyaomi> <Hope> Obviously you can go in and ask for a lobotomy
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Isn't that the liver?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina walks past them, heading inside
* ChadWinters` moves after Katrina
<Sathen> *Rea reaches down and hoists Zephyr up, hooking one arm around his neck*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *shakes her head and head sin after Katrina*
<Seraphna> Angela> "I'm a robotics engineer, not a doctor."
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na follows Kat
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Obviously.
<Seraphna> * Tabetha follows and Angela helps Zephyr along.
<Sathen> *Rea moves along after them, dragging along the 'young' Zephyr*
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus looks uncomfortable but follows the group in.
<Nyaomi> * Hope eyes everyone helping Zephyr. "At least you're well-loved, mom."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Marcus... wait outside and keep a watch on all the exits."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It's my tits..
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr thumbs up
<Seraphna> Angela> *pats Zephyr's head*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> "...Well they are nice."
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus gives Cass a thumb up and waits outside.
<Nyaomi> <Hope> You've been spending too much time around Hisame.
<Sathen> Rea> Not neccessarily true...I just can't leave a comrade behind. Blame the Guardian training.
<Nyaomi> <Hope> Or John.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps it's got 3 other women and someone behind the desk, the receptionist waiting for walk-ins and appointments
<ChadWinters`> Direct approach Kat? 6he glances at her
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Hello. We got an emergency. This woman was punched in the stomach
<Sathen> *Rea hoists Zephyr up a bit to display her to the receptionist*
<Seraphna> * Angela motions to her poor, abused sister.
<DeathStar> *Katrina motions at her, getting the receptionist's attention* Her rebel of a daughter was jealous of the baby when she learned about it.
<DeathStar> *Katrina glares at Hope*
<Seraphna> Angela> "The baby!?"
<Sathen> Rea> Hurts terribly and she's really worried. *he's a helper*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ungh..
<Seraphna> * Tabetha gently rubs her forehead, hoping Angela's general blonde-ness helps it be believable.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Oh she didn't tell you yet?
<DeathStar> <Receptionist> Oh dear. Let me talk to the person running the center to see if we can get scans set up
<DeathStar> 6* She hurries out
<Seraphna> Angela> *sniffles* "N-Nope."
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> <Sweetie, it was a lie.>
<Seraphna> * Angela begins to engage protective big sister mode, pausing. <I-It is?>
<ChadWinters`> I was going to say we could have just asked to meet her, but this approach is more interesting. 6He gives Zephyr a thumbs up
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina keeps ahold of Hope's ear to keep the act up, waiting; the receptionist walks out with Eve, who looks older now with some white in hear ear
<DeathStar> *hair
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> <Yes. Don't worry.>
<Seraphna> * Angela blinks and looks at Eve, staring only a little.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Where is the patien---*she pauses, eyeing Zephyr, then Chad*
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... fuck me
<ChadWinters`> It's been awhile. 6He nods to Eve.
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus, meanwhile, sits on a bench. Humming to himself and looking around the town.
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> This is nice.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *crosses her arms and leans against the wall* *comm* "Marcus, we made contact with Eve. How does it look out there?"
<Seraphna> Angela> "I-It's alright Eve."
<Xanatos`> 6* Marcus pauses and taps his comm..
<Xanatos`> <Marcus> LIke a good retirement option.
<Sathen> *Rea stands quietly for the moment, still holding Zephyr up*
<DeathStar> <Eve> ...*she debates running, grinding her teeth, then slumps, eyeing her patients* Follow me into the back
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mega City Archives
<DeathStar> 6* Stacey sits at desk, having arrived. Eluere's husband coming to arrive. Ben sits down as well
<DeathStar> <Stacey> So you want to look into what?
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal sits. Narok stands in a corner
<Xanatos`> * Saf pulls out her notes, looking over them.
<Seraphna> Reese> "All possible generals funding Sun VI. To make it simple."
<Xanatos`> <Saf> All possible Sun VI connections with the military and it's leaders.
<Sathen> *Orihime, back in fox form, perches on Cel's shoulder watching them lazily*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *flips through pages* "...cyber zombies...underground mutants...techno-organic evil space squids..."
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf nods once to Reese, looking back to Stacey before sliding her notes back into her pocket.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel glances at Orihime on her should then looks back at Stacey. 1"Reikana is exagerating...Hopefully
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Close the net. Stop the funds. Save Ferris Bueler."
<DeathStar> 6* The doors open
<Sathen> *Orihime nods once for each of their comments, then yips at the 'save ferris bueler'*
<DeathStar> 6* Ben turns and Ren looks up as a bearded man with some white in it walks along. Unlike in the past when he was a weakly, Robert Steele now looks rather imposing and strong, walking toward them in his uniform
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel glances towards the doors opening
<DeathStar> <Robert> I was called?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Its just the tinfoil hat brigades postings."
<Seraphna> Reese> "General."
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok looks over Robert, as if sizing him up
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal salutes Robert when he walks in
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Hi Uncle.
<DeathStar> *Robert rubs her head*
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf salutes to Robert quickly, then shifts to the side.
<Nyaomi> * Necia grins toothily. Seeing as he's 'dad' basically.
<Nyaomi> * But being Curali and Eluere's..
<DeathStar> <Robert> You should see Eluere. She could use visits
<Seraphna> Reese> "There's moles in the military that have been funding Sun VI. We're lookin' to plug their holes."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> I talked to her often." She waves a hand.
<DeathStar> <Ben> We also would like to know if Steele funded Sun VI before his death
<Nyaomi> <Necia> At least when she was still on grid." She eyes him accusingly. "She's been going off lately. It's weiiiird."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> But you wouldn't know anything, huh, Uncle...
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Maybe you can help with this stuff, though.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Any information you have would be appreciated
<DeathStar> <Robert> *he scratches his beard, then sits down, using his General codes* I would think your General Cheryl would have all this, she's been access archives after archives lately
<DeathStar> *accesing
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> That's interesting.
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Lots and lots?"
<Sathen> *Orihime mrr's questioningly*
<DeathStar> 6* Robert brings up his dad's stuff, targeting Steele
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf archs a brow at that, but says nothing, though she does glance towards Ben slightly.
<DeathStar> <Robert> Well, unlike her, I know my father
<Seraphna> Reese> "Maybe she's following another lead on her own. She asked us to cover this."
<DeathStar> 6* Ben hmm
<Sathen> *Orihime looks over at Ben to watch him*
<DeathStar> <Robert> General Steele was always a believer in earth father. It's why it led him to battle Cheryl and the others of that era. Cheryl and her team of that time had a lot of trouble
<DeathStar> *first
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Earth father?
<DeathStar> <Robert> I looked over at his finances back then and he spent a lot of his military funding that could not be accounted for. Over 500,000 million
<Nyaomi> (Oh, earth first.)
<kalonZombie> <Mal> The hell is a Terra Daddy?
<kalonZombie> (Nevermind)
<Seraphna> Reese> "Mmm, the short sighted often don't look out to what the long reaching consequences can be."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Oh just a paltry amount, eh
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Daaaaayum."
<DeathStar> <Robert> The reason I think father got away with it was that unlike Cheryl at the time, he was the leader of the space military
<DeathStar> <Robert> Cheryl was the leader of the ground forces
<Sathen> *Orihime yawns at that, listening while watching after Ben*
<Seraphna> Reese> "Bigger budget for those ships indeed."
<DeathStar> 6* Ben frowns, drumming fingers
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> That's a huge amount of resources to have funding you
<Seraphna> Reese> "Dad's mostly handled the ground himself since she passed the reins too."
<DeathStar> <Robert> Second, I found 3 ships that could not be accounted for even after all the ships that were destroyed
<Xanatos`> <Saf> But with no trail? It seems odd. Money of that size does not just...go away.
<Seraphna> An'Mi> Rogue ships?
<DeathStar> <Robert> Likely he gave them away. *he sends them to Ben with serial numbers*
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Kinda sloppy if he kept the serial numbers.
<DeathStar> <Robert> I believe they are changed by now, but the shape and class can not be
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "If they existed... could also have used them to hide the missing money."
<Sathen> *Orihime looks over to see if they showed the ships or not*
<DeathStar> <Robert> Thirdly, if father was the space admiral, so he had access to the colonies and bases. So I looked into his base logs that might have vanished before or after
<Xanatos`> <Saf> I wonder if those ships we have encountered were just upgraded versions of the missing ships... 6* She muses idley.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben lets her look it up. Orihime would find 1 destroyer class, and 2 dreadnaughts
<Seraphna> * Reese rubs his head. "...Have we ever given thought that they could be based offworld?"
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Big ships.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Hmmm. That would explain them.
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Make betting pool. Pegasus Colony again."
<Sathen> *Orihime tries to see if they match the Nostramus that they've encountered before*
<DeathStar> <Robert> There's an asteroid M in the asteroid cluster, and an invisible outpost near Earth that was meant to alert for invasions
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Pegasus Colony?"
<Seraphna> * Reese frowns a bit and looks at Ben, since that's around where Striker Base used to be.
<DeathStar> <Robert> With the 500,000 million and interest, they might have made new ships and bought older bases, since it's not in my files, or they bribes other generals that thought their way
<DeathStar> 6* It seems it was not
<DeathStar> <Ben> a little close for comfortfor what remains of Striker Base
<kalonZombie> <Narok> Could be a different number now, Orihime.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> If we could find the money and steal it, it would hurt their operation
<Seraphna> Reese> "Considering they tech they've used, most of it is probably long overspent."
<Nyaomi> * Necia tilts her head and on a whim, looks up the lunar colony orbiting base's position, where Eluere/Curali were created, since the Gemini project and the doctor were all off records.
<DeathStar> <Robert> I imagine they are low on funds. I mean look how old I am now
<kalonZombie> <Mal> You're not old. C'mon.
<DeathStar> <Robert> If they want to keep getting money, they would have to steal it
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Depends. When you're dealing with amounts that large, you have options.
<Seraphna> Reese> "Of course this is assuming there aren't other generals in on this."
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Could be why they are moving now. They are running out of resources and its now or never."
<DeathStar> <Robert> I'll look into other generals.
<Seraphna> Reese> "We've had inklings of some sort of Shadow Council ruling a Shadow Government right?"
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Gambling, when you're poor, is truly a gamble. Investments and gambling when you're on millions and billions, there are usually uncharted ways to increase paltry gains of small amounts into sizeable gains on large amounts.
<DeathStar> 6* The Gemini base seems not in their range right now, since Lunar Colony is rather large
<DeathStar> 6* Ben seems to be debating
<DeathStar> <Ben> I think we should check out the two bases, and work on a scanner to look for the three ships
<Xanatos`> <Saf> What're you thinking? 6* She glances to Ben.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> For instance, if you invest a few hundred into a new company, make fifteen percent, it's only what, 45 credits?
<Nyaomi> <Necia> But what if you had billions and invested in hundreds of new companies over the course years?
<Xanatos`> 6* Saf nods to Ben's assessment.
<Seraphna> An'Mi> "Will put together ideas for scanner. Send to Science Team?"
<DeathStar> <Robert> It's possible. But it seems to me they are spending a lot
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Which one do you want to hit up first?
<DeathStar> <Robert> Either way, do you want an escort up there? My ship could likely scan for your ships
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Escort would be nice IMO
<Seraphna> Reese> "Makes it easier than having to sneak past."
<DeathStar> <Ben> Then lets deal with the one closet to us
<DeathStar> 6* Ben touches his ear
<DeathStar> <Ben> Kane, we're heading up into space
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Then again, you were never good with the investments, eh, Uncle? You'd probably spend it on roses.
<Nyaomi> * Necia glances at Robert, holding her hand out.
<DeathStar> <Robert> I just fly ships and discipline onery girls. *he pulls Necia up*
<Xanatos`> <Kane> *c* Space? Understood, I'll relay the information to the general and forward along travel charts.
<Nyaomi> * She smiles, in her exhausted, sleepy-looking way, slipping him a folded piece of paper.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> I know. Thanks for the lifts, dad.
<Xanatos`> <Kane> *c* I will be keeping an eye on your astrometrics, good luck.
<DeathStar> 6* Robert takes it, then motions the others to follow him outside
<DeathStar> <Ben> *c* Understood
<kalonZombie> 6*Mal and Narok follow
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* Lorelei stands near the city's limits
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> This is where the quake will form
<DeathStar> 6* The ground is shaking more
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Course of action?"
<Seraphna> Angelos> "Comforting."
<Seraphna> Truth> "We will protect."
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor gets his foxfire ready... it looks kinda pathetic compared to most in his family but it's more than he's ever managed before
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> *she checks her readings* It's one of the biggest ones. Whoever is making this, either coming through or trying to suck people through, is a big one. For a 1 mile area, make sure to coordinate rescue operations and get people out of their homes. Police and other law enforcements to keep looting down
<Seraphna> ANgelos> "Right, so let's get to evacuatin' and get the police to cordon things off."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Got it.
<Xanatos`> <Kellin> Serious time, then. I'll try to handle the northeast quadrant. 6* He turns and moves off quickly.
<Nyaomi> <Aschae> ... Lorelei
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Aschae? What are you doing here?
<DeathStar> *She turns*
<Seraphna> * Angelos teleports away to start getting the troops moving. While Truth remains by Lore, she peers at Aschae.
<Nyaomi> <Aschae> I feel something; Like you
<Seraphna> * Si fuus and puts on her helmet, then runs off to have her Superhero persona evacuate people.
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor hops away to get people in another quarant to evacuate, but pauses when Aschae says that
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Like... Lorelei?
<Sathen> *Damian curses wherever they went, he was sure he had dragged Aschae off as well*
<Nyaomi> <Aschae> I don't know how to explain it." She mumbles, looking annoyed.
<Nyaomi> * A doll of Aschae that Rachael carries is left where Damian had Aschae, giving him the finger
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I--- 6* At that moment, the ground begins to crack and swallows the entire block, Lorelei, Aschae, and anyone near them
<DeathStar> -To Be Continued-
