<DeathStar> Location: Underground Bio, the Next Geners
<DeathStar> 6* Ben does paperwork for his unit, while Ren lounges on a seat
<kalonZombie> 6*Narok practices in the practice room, slashing up dummies with his blade
<DeathStar> <Ren> Kaori. Hess. I'm bored
<Luci> * Thena sets tea and biscuits down for Ben.
<Xanatos> 6* Saf leans back, left leg propped up on her right knee, taking an occasional sip from a mug.
<DeathStar> 6* Necia's terminal beeps with information received
<Luci> * Reese is in the firing range.
<Nyaomi> * A busty strawberry-brunette beats up on another dummy. She looks a lot like Mem or Cheryl, but the pink cat ears and tails scream no.
<Luci> * An'Mi snoozes nearby Ren.
<Nyaomi> * Necia unpeels her face from her desk, peering at it with red marks/lines on it as she squints
<Chaintan> <Hess> I'm not sure how you expect me to entertain you
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *comes in, done up like a soft-goth schoolgirl*
<DeathStar> 6* It seems Necia's terminal has gotten through the barrier on the mansion she and Vesta have been investigating, allowing them to lower the defenses and go in
<Nyaomi> * The late twenties-looking woman glances over at Reikana, panting a bit from her workout. "... Oh, hey Rei."
<Sara> * Kaori hands Ren a confusing puzzle on a piece of paper
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Oh. Door's open.
<DeathStar> *Ren sits up, peering at Reikana* I thought maybe you and Kaori could do wet t-shirt contests
<DeathStar> <Ben> Hm? Door?
<Sara> <Kaori> *looks at Ren* Wh-?
<Nyaomi> <Necia> The island mansion.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel takes a bite out of an apple as she watches in the training room
<Luci> * An'Mi's leg twitches
<DeathStar> *Ben leans over, eyeing the data* That sounds familiar. Update me
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Huh? Wet t-shirt contests? What?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> I was thinking about having a prize for whoever looks best in a wet short
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...I suspect you may have ulterior motives."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Naturally! Saf there is crazy for women that show it all
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Did someone say wet T-shirt contests?!
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash forms his buster and sets it to "water" mode, smile on his face
<DeathStar> *Ren deadpans*
<Chaintan> <Hess> why do you need us to be wet and--- No!
<Chaintan> 6*Hess covers herself
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Awww.
<kalonZombie> 6*He walks away, sulking
<Xanatos> 6* Saf glances towards Ben and Necia, listening quietly while finishing her tea.
<Luci> * Reese tilts his head as he approaches Ash. "DId you sound the horn?"
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What brought this up anyway?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> I was thinking about drawing you all. I've let me skills fall a lot
<kalonZombie> <Ash> False alarm, apparently
<Luci> * An'Mi peeks an eye open. "Need model?"
<Chaintan> 6*Hess grumbles
<Chaintan> <Hess> yeah now youre not seeing the cosplay
<Nyaomi> * Hope, the adult, dead-pans and pops into her usual mid to late teen form, tying off her tank top and shorts since they get looser
<DeathStar> *Ren sizes An'Mi and nods, them pauses at the alarm by Ben to come to the meeting room
<Sara> * Kaori nuzzles Hess and pats her
<Sara> <Kaori> We always seem to be surrounded by people who want to see us naked... *she frowns*
<Luci> * AN'Mi hops up, fuuing, then moves to the meeting room. Reese follows the rest.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...we'll talk about this later..." *sweatdrops as she ehads for the meeting room*
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel moves out of the training room and heads towards the meeting room
<DeathStar> <Ren> Kaori in a cosplay might be fun to draw. *She walks along* And not naked. Wet. I don't do nudes
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash and Narok head for the meeting room
<Luci> An'Mi>
<DeathStar> <Ren> Though I bet Miyuki would encourage it
<Luci> An'Mi> What's wrong? Nude bad?
<DeathStar> <Ren> No but it reveals too much of the subject. Picture Reikana in her cute outfit. Then naked. What looks cuter? The imagination of what is under her outfit. Plus the outfit itself.
<Luci> * An'Mi looks dreamy.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren takes a seat
<Xanatos> 6* Saf sits in the meeting room, unless Ben wasn't there originally, then she would get up to go there.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben walks into the meeting with Necia and Vesta on each arm
<Chaintan> 6*Hess shakes her head and changes into her uniform
<ChadWinters`> Cel takes a seat as she takes a bite of her apple
<DeathStar> 6* Ren sits and sketches those in the room
<Sara> * Kaori follows suit
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *sits down* I'm just... I'm just tryign to cultivate my on0stage look as a lifestyle now."
<Luci> * Thena follows her uncle in and takes a seat with Ben's meeting stuff. All secretary like.
<Luci> An'Mi> "On stage costumes.... cute too...." *still daydreaming*
<DeathStar> <Ren> You wear it better than I would
<DeathStar> <Ben> Thank you for coming. Necia and Vesta have been into a few things without telling us
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta sheepishly sits down
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Oh? 6She looks over at the two
<Xanatos> <Saf> Are they going to jail?
<Nyaomi> <Necia> ..." She peers up at the ceiling
<Luci> An'Mi> "Sneaking off. Investigating. Think not notice."
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Hey! We were sneaky as hell
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Necia and Vesta are right there. They can hear you."
<DeathStar> <Ben> *he brings up a screen of a location on an island, that looks quite a bit like Darien's mansion
<DeathStar> <Ben> Apparantly they were investigating someone who claimed to be Darien and giving them information to use. Throughout the Sun VI incident
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> What's the deal with that location?
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Hmmm.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Of course he kept his face hidden but they said he knew a lot
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Of course nothing can be easy.
<Xanatos> <Saf> Taking information from an unknown source can be very risky.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> It wouldn't be hard for someone to take over the identity. Was any of the information comprimising?
<DeathStar> <Vesta> No. We passed on a lot that helped Ben
<DeathStar> <Vesta> But since he wasn't contacting moms or anything, I began to wonder and wanted Necia to find us a way into the mansion
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "But didn't you hav a body and stuff?"
<DeathStar> <Vesta> We have a world with clones
<DeathStar> *Vesta gestures*
<Luci> * An'Mi whispers. "Maybe Nega-Darien."
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> That is true also
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Robot duplicates.
<kalonZombie> <Ash> If I wanted I could download my brain into a new head and swap them out.
<Luci> Reese> "Wasn
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "My grandmom would say its probably somehow Xevil."
<Luci> Reese> "Wasn't Darien possessed by a Progenitor at one point?"
<kalonZombie> <Ash> To be fair we could guess Xevil and probably be right.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Xevil has been dead like 20 years now
<kalonZombie> 6*Natok sits quietly
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Hasn't stopped him before.
<Luci> An'Mi> "Still could be. Xevil somehow.":
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Then he wouldn't know such personal details...
<DeathStar> <Ben> As for the progenitor thing, no. He gained access to his past life, I think
<Luci> Reese> "Hmmm."
<Luci> An'Mi> "Like Grandma did... I think."
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Even though he was killed, it's possible he found a way to cheat death. So this could be the real him
<DeathStar> <Ben> Anyway, I think we should go over there and look
<DeathStar> <Ben> It's a volunteer mission so *Ren goes to drawing, not coming*
<Xanatos> <Saf> Alright, I'll come.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash gets up to go. Narok stays since it doesn't sound like fighting will be involved and therefore he'll be a waste of resources.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Well, I'm definitely coming. *Ben rises and nods* Get your gear and meet me at the shuttle
<Nyaomi> <Hope> ... I'll stay with the ship on long range support. But this sounds like something you two should see through." She gestures at Vesta and Necia, who jerks.
<Luci> An'MI> "Need model, Ren?"
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I'll come along. 6She nods and moves off to get ready
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I guess I could come..."
<Luci> * Reese nods and goes to grab his gear.
<Xanatos> 6* Saf stands and gives a big stretch before moving off to get her battle suit on.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Sure. By the time Reikana and the others come back, I'll be fully artist against
<DeathStar> 6* Ben walks and sits in the shuttle, peering back at X in the back. Vesta hops into a seat
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...then your wet t-short scheme will go forward?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> Maybe another time. Your look cute as is right now.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel glances at X already being on the shuttle.
<Luci> * An'Mi nods and hops up to join the others.
<Luci> * Reese waves to X.
<Xanatos> 6* Saf comes jogging up the ramp, buckling a strap and sitting down.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Anywya, I need to go!" *heads to the shuttle*
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel nods to Saf as she sits down and straps in
<DeathStar> *Ben flicks some switches and powers it up*
<DeathStar> 6* X sits Kaori and Hess down in the back, assuming they will come
<Luci> * An'Mi stays her player misread lines.
<Sara> * Kaori blinks at being sat down, not as if she was going to say no
<Luci> An'Mi> "Will wear costume?"
<Luci> * Reese and Thena take seats.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash has been on the shuttle for a while, always ready thanks to subspace
<Xanatos> <Saf> You think we'll see combat?
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Probably not. Big scary guy didn't come.
<DeathStar> <X> If this is a false Darien, or a deranged one, I believe so. He might be an old human but he is dangerous, like Warren
<DeathStar> *Ben lifts off and flies for the island*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *buckles up*
<DeathStar> <X> *she hands Kaori a snack, then Hess one*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> If it turns dangerous, I'm sure we'll be good with present company
<Luci> * Reese checks his sniper rifle.
<Luci> * Thena fixes her fake glasses.
<DeathStar> *Vesta leans back, peering at her sister. Ben studies the information and lands half a mile away. The mansion being rather desserted
<Nyaomi> * Necia looks sheepish, in her rare combat equipment.
<Xanatos> <Saf> Old and busted. Just how we leave this world.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I guess the real question will be if this person wants us to get in to his business
<DeathStar> <Ben> We have his supposed granddaughters. Lets hope that helps.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "This place totally loooks like the bedroom walls would start bleeding."
<DeathStar> <X> So you're dating my granddaughter?
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> It will be good leverage.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben walks down the steps and Vesta follows
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash follows
<Luci> * Reese and Thena follow, Thena skipping along.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "So what's the plan?" *wealks along*
<Xanatos> 6* Saf steps along, peering around at the landscape.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel steps out with the others, peering at the landscape and the building
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta walks by some creepy fence decorations, approaching the mansion where a gargoyle looks down*
<DeathStar> <Ben> I guessd use their codes to get in since Necia cracked the defenses
<Nyaomi> <Necia> ... Almost feels like the place is dressed up more than last time.
<Luci> Reese> "What is this, Darienvania?"
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> How many times have you been here?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Gargoyles are actually meant to ward off evil."
<DeathStar> <Vesta> 5? *she peers at Necia*
<DeathStar> 6* X walks along, keeping an eye on Kaori after questioning her
<Sara> <Kaori> I'm pretty sure we passed at least 3 levels outside of the building alone
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Has anything changed much? Were you able to enter the grounds and building before?
<DeathStar> 6* Ben brings out his datapad, entering the program Necia made. Nothing seems to happen but Ben looks down* It's off
<Sara> * She notes after reluctantly answering X's questions, though she thought X already knew
<Xanatos> <Saf> What is?
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Want me to teleport in and scout around?
<DeathStar> <X> Well. *she hugs Kaori* Welcome to the family. *said in a RE7 way*
<Chaintan> <Hess> Grammie!
<Chaintan> <Kitty> mom
<DeathStar> <Vesta> It does look older than last time
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...is this the right place?"
<DeathStar> *X jumps at Kitty being outside theisland mansion*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Is that a joke? 6She looks at Vesta
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Oh hey Kitty.
<Chaintan> 6*Kitty shakes her head
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Yeah, sure. *Ben opens the door and steps through*
<Luci> Reese> "Mrs. Kitty." *he nods*
<Xanatos> 6* Saf steps in after Ben, glancing around carefully.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash steps in
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel blinks then eyes Kitty being here then shrugs and moves after Saf, Ben and Ash
<Luci> * Reese steps in, Thena following the others
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *steps inside and looks around*
<DeathStar> 6* Inside it is beautifully done, with red carpet and nothing looks old, but new. Vesta nods
<DeathStar> <Vesta> This is it
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Interesting. 6She peers around, studing it
<Xanatos> <Saf> ...why isn't it dirty in here?>
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Would you want to live if it was dirty?
<kalonZombie> <Ash> If it's been abandoned then it would be dirty.
<Luci> Reese> Someone managing the property?
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> For appearance sake.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Maybe outside is justa hologram or something?"
<Sara> <Kaori> A brand-new mansion is rather odd...
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Parts of it are old I think.
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta walks along, peering at stairs going upstairs, and rooms to the left and right
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "So maybe start with the same relative locaiton as Darien's office? I mean, its where he was doing his spy stuff AND where he was allegedly murdered."
<DeathStar> <Vesta> To the right then
<DeathStar> *She moves through the doorway. Ben watches, peering around like stuff is watching him*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Hopefully this isn't some sort of long con trap. 6She pull a blade out from a sheathe
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *walks along to said office*
<kalonZombie> <Ash> I could still teleport scout if people want
<DeathStar> 6* Ben shakes his head
<DeathStar> <Ben> If you are going to explore, do it in groups
<DeathStar> <Ben> Kaori, Hess, go with Ash to look upstairs.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Take whoever else you need
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash holds his hands out "Grab on girls
<DeathStar> *X touches Ash*
<Chaintan> 6*Hess makes a face but hugs onto Ash
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta pauses at the door leading to the office, and tries opening it
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Locked
<Xanatos> 6* Saf sticks with Ben and Vesta.
<kalonZombie> <Ash> ...Hess you don't need to hug, just hold onto my hand or something
<Xanatos> <Saf> What sort of lock are we dealing with?
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel eyes teh door. 1"I'll stay with you guys."
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Can anyone pick a lock?"
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Regular door lock I think
<DeathStar> 6* X touches Kaori's back
<DeathStar> <X> Keep an eye on them, Kitty, while we're gone
<Chaintan> <Kitty> I will mom
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash teleports to go scout
<Xanatos> 6* Saf moves over to kneel and peer at the lock, she scratches her head slightly then shrugs and tries to punch it open with her cybernetic arm.
<DeathStar> *The Ash team will be back*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Is that wise? 6She steps back
<DeathStar> 6* The door handle busts in, unlocked
<DeathStar> <Ben> That is ... one way to pick a lock
<Xanatos> <Saf> I don't have the special lockpick attachment yet.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...and it didn't explode."
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Hope it doesn't piss grandpa off...
<Xanatos> <Saf> I'll take the blame if it does.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Well if it is him, he'll probably take it out on his grandkids
<Chaintan> 6*Kitty tilts her head
<Nyaomi> * Necia eyes Cel
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta swings it open. Inside, is an immaculate desk, with cabinets full of books and a side door
<DeathStar> 6* Ben moves to the desk, checking it over
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel moves inside, peering at the cabinets full of books
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *walks over to the side-door and looiks it over*
<Luci> * Thena peeks in behind the rest.
<DeathStar> 6* This lock seems to be reinforced with a card key
<DeathStar> 6* Ben sits at the desk and opens drawers, pulling out stacks of papers, peering them over
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "This one has an electronic lock."
<Luci> * Thena helps Ben, organizing the papers.
<DeathStar> <Ben> Apparantly he tracks us, Sun VI when it existed, and Lore's team. He also has listed multiple other gangs
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> None of these books look out of the ordinary.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "So it must be important!"
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta moves to the card lock
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Where is he now then?
<Nyaomi> * Necia walks over and holds her hand out to it, eyes glowering.
<DeathStar> 6* The key lock dings, green now
<Xanatos> 6* Saf leans on the wall by the door, watching everyone.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *slowly opens the door*
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta steps in slowly
<DeathStar> 6* The side room has what looks to be a strange contraption that looks like a person can stand in it. Lots of wires run to it
<Nyaomi> * Necia reaches out to any electronics beyond the door, diving for information
<Luci> * Thena scans the papers for further use back at base.
<DeathStar> 6* Necia would get a lock on the charge station.
<Xanatos> <Saf> Ominously person-sized. 6* She says as she glances into the side room.
<DeathStar> *Ben rises and lets Thena so her job, peering in*
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel peers at it. 1"That's different."
<DeathStar> <Vesta> I wonder what this is. *she moves over to a cabinet and opens it* Huh
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Going to let me in but then hold out? That's not very nice.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What? What did you find?"
<Nyaomi> * Necia glares, forcing herself on the lockout
<DeathStar> 6* Necia would get information, vital stats and other things appearing from the charge station
<DeathStar> *Vesta turns, holding what looks like armor for an arm*
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Come on, start talking..." She muses, eyes parsing back and forth like she's reading.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> There's a whole set inside there
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Armor?
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta tosses the black armor over
<Xanatos> <Saf> It that like a highly advanced battle armor?
<Nyaomi> * Necia reaches out, drawing a holographic rectangle populating with medical information on Darien Starr from their base records.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Looks old to me actually, but powerful. *The match is not exact. But to how, you'll see next time*
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel catches it, peering it over now
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Upstairs
<DeathStar> 6* X peers around the second floor. There seems to be a lot of bedrooms, most of them dirty and dusty
<kalonZombie> <Ash> So looks like someone's just been touching the downstairs up and leaving up here alone
<Luci> * Reese moves with X, using his scope's filters to check for people through walls.
<DeathStar> <X> There is 4 rooms that are clean. Perhaps for when the grandkids come
<DeathStar> 6* The door at the far end looks more reinforced than the rest
<Luci> Reese> "He's got more?"
<DeathStar> <X> I meant Vesta and Necia
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash hmms "I could try teleporting in there...
<Luci> Reese> "You're teleport happy."
<kalonZombie> <Ash> It's my thing.
<Chaintan> 6*Hess looks about after putting a ventilation mask on
<DeathStar> *X forms her ripple blade and cuts into the door*
<DeathStar> <X> This is easier
<kalonZombie> <Ash> ...I guess. 6*He huffs
<DeathStar> 6* X kicks the door open, and goes to step in when a powerful energy blast admits, affecting Ash's body
<DeathStar> *omits*
<kalonZombie> (emits?)
<DeathStar> *thank you*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ash shudders "Theeeeee hellllllllllll?
<Luci> * Reese keeps a gun raised over her shulder as backup.
<DeathStar> 6* X looks jerky too, clearly affected too, being more Weapon than Hess
<Chaintan> 6*Hess reels
<DeathStar> <X> Something in there is protected
<Chaintan> <Hess> Grammie!
<Luci> Reese> "...Was that EMP?"
<Luci> * Reese checks their electronics.
<DeathStar> *X shakes her head* I would think I could handle that
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Explains why I feel so sleepy...
<Luci> Reese> "You're part Dragoon now right?"
<Chaintan> 6*Hess pulls Ash and X back
<DeathStar> *X kneels a bit. Reese would see a pulse blast but their electronics seem fine*
<DeathStar> <X> That is true
<Luci> Reese> "Didn't hit me it seems though, I'm part Dragoon. Hrm... there was some kind of pulse alright. But the systems are good."
<DeathStar> *X pats Hess, rising up*
<Chaintan> <Hess> I can check it...I mean I'm not full weapon
<DeathStar> <X> I am recovering. But becareful
<Luci> Reese> "You and Me, Hess."
<Luci> * Reese nods and heads to the door.
<Sara> * Kaori pulls out her cannon, though stays back
<Chaintan> 6*Hess nods and follows after Reese
<DeathStar> 6* As Hess enters, she would see what looks like robotic shells inside there, all hanging up, plugged into stuff. Many of them look humanoid, only their faces are ala Terminator*
<Luci> * Reese frowns. "...This looks a little like the inside of Tabetha's lab."
<Luci> Reese> "Only she puts sythetics over the creepy skullheads."
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Yeah mom's kinda fucked up!
<DeathStar> *something taps Kaori's shoulder*
<Luci> * Reese takes pictures, moving in a bit more to get readings. "They can't be repoids though, can they?"
<DeathStar> <X> Rep-what?
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Robots like me.
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Complete free will.
<DeathStar> 6* In the back is a terminal running a program
<DeathStar> 6* Kaori would feel something is standing behind her, just waiting for her to turn
<Luci> Reese> "It's what Tabehta calls her Robots."
<Chaintan> <Hess> the hell are those...
<DeathStar> <X> Check that terminal. See if there's any data.
<kalonZombie> <Mal> Well her humanoid one. Hallmonitorbot and Lostandfoundbot aren't Reploids.
<DeathStar> *X works her arm, getting feeling back*
<Luci> * Reese nods and works the terminal.
<Sara> <Kaori> ...*tries to glance over her shoulder*
<DeathStar> 6* A mask stares at her
<Chaintan> 6*While Reese checks the terminal, Hess keeps a look out
<Luci> Reese> "She's made others they just don't stay on base."
<DeathStar> 6* Complete with a tall person
<Sara> * Kaori stares
<Sara> <Kaori> ...Can I help you
<DeathStar> <Man> That is my question. You all are in my home. *he lifts Kaori up gently, walking forward. Those on the terminal would see brain waves, with the name Darien Starr next to it. Likely recorded before pow pow*
<DeathStar> 6* X turns as the figure walks up and lifts her up easily too, peering in at the others. Hess would likely spot him
<Luci> * Reese rases a brow and peers over. "Hey... there's recorded brain scans of Darien...in... here."
<Chaintan> 6*Hess turns and reels
<Luci> * Reese's gun comes up, aimed steadily. "Mind putting the ladies down?"
<Chaintan> <Hess> Kaori!
<DeathStar> <Masked Man> You all should not be here
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Uh, excuse me sir, please release my friends. 6*He forms his buster and aims at him
<Luci> Reese> "We're here on authority of the military. What's your excuse?"
<DeathStar> 6* The masked man eyes Ash, as if in curiousity
<Chaintan> <Hess> and you shouldnt be picking up my girlfriend
<DeathStar> <Man> I live here
<DeathStar> *The man drops Kaori and X in front of Hess
<Luci> Reese> "THis is Darien Starr's house."
<kalonZombie> <Ash> Please stop looking at me like I'm a piece of meat.
<DeathStar> <Man> This is Darien Starr's hidden house from attacks
<DeathStar> <Man> You shouldn't know that unless the girls brought you
<Luci> Reese> "We're here with them, yes."
<Luci> Reese> "He's dead, however, so who are you?"
<DeathStar> 6* The masked man turns from Ash as if he offends me
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Downstairs
<DeathStar> 6* Necia's readings appear in the air. It matches Darien only 50%. The rest of the scan seems to be mechanical
<DeathStar> <Vesta> This place is creepy
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "When do the walls start bleeding?!"
<Xanatos> <Saf> ...what does that mean? 6* She points to the readings.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> No idea. *she pulls out more of the armor. Another arm, leg, body*
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel looks at the readings in the air. 1"Seems like some sort of hybrid marriage of man and machine
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel taps the piece of armor that was tossed to her with her blade
<Luci> Thena> Cyborg then?
* kalonZombee has joined #TAW-Session67
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be highly durable
<Luci> Thena> Like Cassabot?
<DeathStar> <Vesta> So grandpa is a cyborg now, like Cass?
<Xanatos> <Saf> Not really cyborg, mentally a cyborg is all human. Like me.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...don't call my gandma 'Cassabot'."
<Xanatos> <Saf> This is like an android/human hybrid.
<Luci> Thena> "...Cassandra-borg?"
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> This appears to be some durable armor. 6She sets it on the desk. 1"It's hard to say without knowing what parts are what. 6She then nods towards Saf. 1"That's probably a better assumption.
* kalonZombie has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 195 seconds)
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Huh. *she pauses, hearing noises upstairs*
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Those are all deliberate. I feel it's more like trying to make a dragoon without the nano or biotechnology available.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> It would sound like they fond something
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Mechanical necessity for substitution of biological functions...
<DeathStar> <Ben> We should check it out. *he places a device on the terminal*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...doesn't sound liek fighting though..."
<DeathStar> 6* Ben moves to the foyer
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Perhaps. 6She moves off towards the others
<Xanatos> 6* Saf steps after them, pulling out her batons.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> 8walks out with the others* "I'm not staying anywhere in this creepshow alone!"
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta hurries after them. As they reach the foyer, they would see a masked man walking down the stairs, a metal door wrenched close, the frame of it crunched up. Whoever did it is strong. X can be heard on the other side telling Ash now he can teleport
<DeathStar> <Ben> *he pauses, eyeing the masked man walking down the stairs, then pausing as he spots the second group*
<Xanatos> <Saf> Um. Is this Darien?
<kalonZombee> 6*Ash tries to teleport everyone out
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I think we found the owner of this place. 6She pulls out her second blade
<Luci> Reese> Feel like I shoulda at least shot him.
<DeathStar> <Masked Man> More of you. Vesta, Necia.... *he pauses as Ash, X, Hess, and Kaori are teleported behind him*
<Luci> * Reese aims his gun, if he is assumedly in that group?
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Grandpa..
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> He doesn't talk like he's Darien Starr
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Stop right there!" *poses... the hem of her skirt billowing up and then she braks the pose to push it back down before she flashes anyone*
<DeathStar> <Masked Man> I am called Darien. I had hoped notto encounter you all. You all can be so exciteable
<kalonZombee> <Ash> Hi. Uh. You might have missed it earlier, but teleporting is sort of my big deal.
<Luci> Thena> "So... not Darien, but called Darien?"
<Nyaomi> <Necia> ...
<DeathStar> <Masked Man> You certainly didn't get that trait from your predessor
<Nyaomi> <Necia> Only one question-- are you going to level with us...?
<Xanatos> <Saf> We really only came here for more information.
<DeathStar> <Darien?> *He asighs and reaches up to his mask* I suppose I will
<Nyaomi> * Necia grits her teeth slightly, looking hurt. "Because otherwise I'll show you just how lively I can really be..."
<Nyaomi> * She pauses, letting out a breath.
<Luci> Reese> "How does he know Ash is a rebuild?"
<DeathStar> 6* He clicks off the mask, then pulls it off, Darien's face peering back at them, though he is missing an eye, the missing one more mechanical*
<Nyaomi> <Necia> He's not Darien. But Death Star, right?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Muh?"
<Luci> Reese> I feel like we need the old people here... wait, he's that guy?"
<kalonZombee> <Ash> Wait... how does he know I'm the better, sexier upgrade of Cole?
<Luci> Thena> "Didn't go home...?"
<DeathStar> <Darien?> In a way. Darien and myself are the same person, from other realities. And I am not talking about that false reality that had many of us
<Luci> Thena> "So... not Wind?"
<kalonZombee> <Ash> Probably not, no
<DeathStar> *Darien grimaces at the name Wind* Wind was a progenitor who copied my looks long, long ago
<Nyaomi> <Necia> The or... ig... inal..." She chokes out, starting to move toward 'Darien' her eyes slowly coming to glow
<Luci> Thena> "So you from the reality of the wishes."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Perhaps. It is hard to define what is reality. I died over there ages ago. But if you recall, Darien gained the gift of remembering your past lives
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't you think it odd that he lost that knowledge with time?
<Luci> * Thena counts on her fingers. "...He seperated you?"
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel slips her blades away as she listens
<DeathStar> 6* X lans on Hess and Kaori
<DeathStar> <Darien> Bright. He was being driven mad and so he copied the information on his mind to me.
<kalonZombee> 6*Ash deforms his buster
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's why I still have his brain waves. I was looking to make him a body
<Luci> * Thena nods. "Momma Jenny told me lots about the old days. And MOmma Sammy had some memories abouts too.
<Nyaomi> * Necia brushes past him and sinks her fingers into the metal door that had been barring their way, wrenching it off with her one hand and smashing it into the floor, pummeling it with her other hand like it were made of cardboard until she drops to her knees and starts sobbing.
<Xanatos> 6* Saf tilts his head.
<Xanatos> (her)
<Sara> <Kaori> Erk
<Luci> Thena> "Why not ask help?"
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel studies Necia
<Chaintan> 6*Hess catches X and Kaori
<Luci> * Thena points to Ash. "Tabetha could help build one. Or make clone?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I didn't want them to know. Better he came back without questions. But brain waves aren't always enough. I was worried there would be something loss in transition to the body
<Luci> Thena> He died.... would always be questions.
<DeathStar> 6* Necia would see all the reploid bodies hanging, with the terminal with the brain waves
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "With our luck, he would have been resurrected with Xevil's personality hidden in his head."
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Then why contact them?
<DeathStar> <Darien> And how often have you died? But they are in a way my grandkids, too. I kept an eye on the family while living out here
<Xanatos> <Saf> Yeah if you had kept to yourself then no one would've been the wiser.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I wanted to help them
<Nyaomi> * Necia wipes her face and sniffs. "I was stupid to hope."
<DeathStar> <Vesta> ... *She peers down, angry*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> But that carries the risk of this exact moment happening.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> But there's another reason for having us involved. We're the closest, aren't we?
<Xanatos> <Saf> Well, cat's out of the bag. Want help now?
<kalonZombee> <Ash> I've died once.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I had thought I would be done now
<Luci> Thena> "Could till bring back right?"
<Nyaomi> <Necia> The marriage between mechanical and biological.
<kalonZombee> <Ash> It was kinda jarring, honestly.
<Luci> Reese> "Ash and Kumiko?"
<DeathStar> *Darien peers at Necia* I gained some attributes from Darien and he mind long ago. I am no longer insane, for instance.
<kalonZombee> <Ash> It's a pretty good marriage, though you have to adopt your kids.
<kalonZombee> <Ash> ...And then they turn into potheads...
<DeathStar> *Darien brings his head down on Ash's head* Don't make me put Colephantus' personality into you
<DeathStar> *hand
<kalonZombee> 6*Ash teleports behind Darien
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Well ultimately it would up to Necia and Vesta if we should continue
<ChadWinters`> (He)
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hands Hess and Necia the data he has*
<Nyaomi> * Necia gets up, wiping her face again and moves into the room with all the reploids, her eyes glowing again
<Luci> Thena> "Cole tried to kill the team at one point..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> How often have you all done the same?
<DeathStar> *Darien shrugs*
<DeathStar> <X> *coughs*
<Luci> Thena> "Thena innocent flower.:
<Xanatos> 6* Saf glances to Vesta to see how she's handling all this.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I haven't yet.
<Luci> Reese> "Never tried to kill my team yet."
<DeathStar> *Vesta seems to be eyeing the floor, disappointed and her hope broken. She steps outside*
<DeathStar> *X pats Hess' head* I would never dream of trying to kill the team. Again
<kalonZombee> <Ash> I, for the record, am not Cole, and have not tried to kill the party
<DeathStar> <Ben> Well, I think we're done here. We got the data from ... Death Star. Lets go
<DeathStar> *Ben turns and walks out*
<Luci> Reese> "YOu are like Mr. Starr though, working in secret instead of just telling a group directly."
<Sara> * Kaori blinks at X
<kalonZombee> 6*Ash follows Ben
<DeathStar> <X> It was my rebellous youth
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "So... just head back now?"
<Chaintan> 6*Hess nods
<Luci> * Thena tilts her head, jots a note and walks over to DS, handing it to him.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *shrugs and walks out*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes it, looking tired, refusing to meet Necia and Vesta's eyes*
<Luci> Thena> "Someone who will be pleased to see you. Won't feel so lonely."
<Xanatos> 6* Saf walks out after Ben, catching up to Vesta she puts an arm around her shoulder
<Luci> * Thena then moves to join the others.
<Xanatos> <Saf> Sorry.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> I'm sure he meant well.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Are you going to keep trying? 6She looks at Darien
<Nyaomi> * Necia moves back from the reploid room and peers over at Darien, eyes no longer glowing.
<Xanatos> <Saf> It sounded like it, at least.
<Nyaomi> <Necia> You're certain?
<DeathStar> <Darien> If the girls want. It is not a trial that can be underdone easily. The brain waves will match his personality but the memory is what matters. I did scans on the body to copy the brain but death does things
<DeathStar> 6* Ben leans on the shuttle, peering at the others
<DeathStar> <Ben> Hard to believe there's another Ash out there
<Luci> Reese>
<Luci> Reese> "I'll tell Tabetha to check this place out then? She built Ash."
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Considering the problem with clones, yes that would make sense
<Nyaomi> <Necia> This is the last time I play God
<Nyaomi> <Necia> But it means you're letting me in, Single R.
<DeathStar> *Darien studies Necia* Very well. Come to the lab
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Base
<DeathStar> 6* Ren leans forward, with her art tools
<Luci> * An'Mi poses.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Are you here to be drawn? *Ben sets his equipment down, to keep an eye on Necia*
<DeathStar> *Ren shows a picture of a chibi version of An'Mi*
<Luci> * An'Mi nods in approval. "Should do band. Like that."
<Xanatos> 6* Saf goes to put her gear up, letting her hair out of the ponytail and giving a relaxed sigh.
<DeathStar> <X> I will keep this Death Star marked for consideration to kill. His name is evil after all
<DeathStar> *X moves to her room*
<Sara> <Kaori> It is a villain name
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *shuffles back in* "That was lame."
<DeathStar> 6* Reikana and Kaori get a bucket of water on them
<kalonZombee> 6*Hale texts Hess about the con she wants to go to this weekend
<DeathStar> *Ren then sits and draws*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Luckily that ended better than it could have. 6She sets her stuff away
<Luci> * Reese goes to make his reports.
<Xanatos> 6* Saf whistles and moves to a console to see what she can learn about Darien, since she had only ever heard about it from other people or in the news.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "What the?!"
<DeathStar> <Ren> Yeah, keep that pose you two
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...but I'm wet... this isn't even a t-shirt!"
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel stretches her arms behind her back as she moves to the break room
<Xanatos> <Saf> You really haven't said much about all of this Ben.
<DeathStar> <Ben> I didn't really know the man that well. I'm concerned with Necia
<DeathStar> <Ren> I know, but it still looks good. *She draws quixckly, then shows Kaori and Reikana over sexualized pictures of them*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Are you worried she will do something foolish? 6She looks over at Ben as he takes a sip from a water bottle
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *falls over!*
<Xanatos> <Saf> I thought it was odd he specifically pointed out that Darien makes him less insane. How would we know he was insane to being with?
<Xanatos> (begin)
<DeathStar> <Ben> Good question. He could be leading Necia on a goose chase
<Xanatos> <Saf> Nothing like promising the return of a family member to prime someone for manipulation.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I'd be more concerned about the fall out of it not succeeding or if it does, it not being perfect.
<DeathStar> <Ben> That is true. It's why I put a teleporter chip on Necia in case things go bad
<DeathStar> <Ren> *Draws her on the ground now*
<Xanatos> <Saf> Smart. A little creepy, but smart.
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel looks at Ben then eyes herself. 1"And how many of these teleporter chips have you put on everyone else?
* Stretch`cell has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 195 seconds)
<DeathStar> <Ben> Not many. Outside the girls, the men can be eaten
<DeathStar> <Ben> Mom will get mad if the girls get hurt
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> I guess it wouldn't be the first time I've had a tracking device of sorts implanted on me.
<DeathStar> *Ben eyes her oddly*
<Xanatos> <Saf> ...this conversation got weird. Don't put chips on me without my permission.
<DeathStar> 6* Vesta sits up as Necia returns, with a reploid body*
<DeathStar> <Ben> If you insist
<Xanatos> <Saf> But now that we've talked about it. You have my permission because that could save my life.
* Stretch`cell has joined #TAW-Session67
<DeathStar> *Ben doesn't let her know he has one on Kaori and Hess right now*
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Is it not normal practice to have a tracking device installed on you incase something happens to you?
<DeathStar> <Ben> No.
<Xanatos> <Saf> That's fucked up.
<Xanatos> <Saf> Chad is a creep.
<ChadWinters`> <Cel> Hmmm. 6She crosses her arms, thinking
<DeathStar> *Ren finishes her drawing of Reikana on the ground*
<DeathStar> <Ren> All done. *she pats Kaori and Rei, moving off*
<DeathStar> <Ben> If you will excuse me, I should see to Necia in case she needs help. *He bows to them and moves off*
<Xanatos> 6* Saf gives a wave
<ChadWinters`> 6Cel bows to Ben slightly
<DeathStar> -END-
