<DeathStar> Date: 10-639.5.31
<DeathStar> Location: Marcus' Folley
<DeathStar> 6* As the days pass, the two teams prepare and study things. Ren sits in her seat and eyes her datapad a message from someone
<Seraphna> **Angela peeks out from the area she set up to fix Dakota, wearing mechanics coveralls and her hair, still red, back in a tail**
<DeathStar> *Warren slaps down some familiar armor that Marcus has been wearing lately*
<DeathStar> <Warren> Lemon has been working on repairing this for you all
<Xanatos> <Marcus> She can do that? Huh. Nice.
<Seraphna> Angela> Of course, Lemon inherited Cheryl's knack.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It'll provide just a small bit more protection
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...for us all?"
<Seraphna> **Angela grins** Every bit helps.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I was getting used to the wind blowing through the holes in my other armor. 6* He sighs sadly.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> It was working for you until that hit to the crotch.
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Sweet. More armor to punch.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I designed it to match the types of armor you all wear already
<Seraphna> **Angela nods, absorbing hers into her subspace then to be integrated into her Dragon Armor**
<DeathStar> *Lemon moves over to Reikana's armor* And hold out your arm
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *tilts her head to the side and holds out her arm*
<DeathStar> *Lemon gives her armor a shot* There
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus lets out a whistle as he looks at it, then steps aside to put it on.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Wwit... I get the needle?"
* ChadWinters glances up from his datapad at the armor then Lemon boosting Rei's living armor.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Did you want to replace your living armor?
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na puts the armor in her subspace belt buckle as well
<DeathStar> <Lemon> The shot should over the next few hours strengthen it
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Ah.... gotcha... at least I don't have to dress like those two." *thumbs at MArcus and Dias*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha pulls her sleeve down to expose her tactical suit**
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Side effects include *she read outs a long list*
<Seraphna> **Truth summons her armor and peers at it**
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *just stares at Lemon*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias stands there, a finger in his ear wiggling, wearing a tattered fighting gi
<DeathStar> *Wyrd takes her's and X, to change off to the side*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole scratches his cheek, staring at Lemon too.
<Xanatos> <Cole> That all sounds pretty bad.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It's just possible. *coughs over her next word* a high possibility
<DeathStar> *Lemon turns back to the others* X's team thinks she knows where Senator Hamilton is located so she plans to head out soon. I take it Marcus is going to show up to where the other Dias is supposedly going to do his speech?
<ChadWinters> I'm sure you'll be fine, Rei.
<Seraphna> **Tabetha injects her tactical suit, while Truth figures out a spot to do so with her shiney armor**
<DeathStar> *Ren closes her datapad messages*
<Seraphna> Angela> We have the teleport signal Fias used to escape, they think we were fooled so chances are they won't change it.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yup
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "... ... ...oh, you missed that one line about side effect also includes eatting my teammates." *deadpan*
<Xanatos> <Cole> I bet chad tastes like dust and an ointment.
<ChadWinters> Bitter disappointment most likely.
<Seraphna> Angela> He tastes like pure grumpiness. Which oddly has a slight hint of beef. The beef he has with all of us.
<DeathStar> *Reikana's armor rumbles*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> ...Angela, I love you, but you're weird.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane walks around with a tray of ear pieces.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I'll stay behind here with the shapeshifters. If it looks like you are in trouble I'll step in
* ChadWinters slowly eyes Angela with a neutral look that slowly shifts to one of slight confusion then he just shudders
<Seraphna> Angela> I suppose I should get cleaned up and ready. **raises a brow at Chad** And I am for once thankful I can't read minds.
<Xanatos> <Kane> These are upgraded comms, mostly security enhancements.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Be very thankful.
<DeathStar> *X steps back out, armored up* Alright people, we'll use my shuttle to where Harrison should be at. The other team can use whatever old crap is here on the base
<Xanatos> <Kane> They can communicate with each other directly in a close proximity so you won't have to have access to the holonet network to communicate.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Old crap, my nickname in highschool.
<DeathStar> <Vesta> ...
<Xanatos> 6* Cole stands up and claps his hands together.
<Seraphna> Angela> I mean, we could fly on Dakota, he's mostly up and running.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "A Gear is kind of less-than-subtle."
* ChadWinters nods to Kane
<DeathStar> <Ren> That sounds like fun
<DeathStar> <Ren> A thing you fixed in a rush over 48 hours.
<Seraphna> Angela> I did say we COULD.
<DeathStar> *Ren lets out a breath
<DeathStar> *X's team heads out out to her shuttle. X, Cole, Chad, Wyrd, Truth, Zephyr, John, Tabetha, Reese, Chris are now departing*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'm sure there's something here we can use. 6* He gets to his feet and moves off to find something.
<Seraphna> Angela> There's always Montana and the others. **She huffs**
<DeathStar> *John waves as he leaving, heading off in sryle*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> We'll figure something out.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Not to discourage you, my love, but I'm not getting on Dakota until he's 100%
<Seraphna> **Tabetha, Reese and Truth follow her**
<Seraphna> Angela> Fine, Dakota, guard Warren and make him a sandwich.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Besides... my 'armor' needs time to finish digesting anyway."
<DeathStar> <Warren> *grunt*
<Seraphna> Angela> ...That is, make a sandwich for him to eat.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mega City
<DeathStar> 6* X's shuttle lands in the city, cloaked and X steps off
<Xanatos> <Cole> Yet again we're off doing the real work while they go after vendettas. 6* He sighs, walking down and pulling his hair back into a ponytail.
<DeathStar> *John stretches as he follows Wyrd and Zephyr off the shuttle. The sky is beginning to become evening*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> If you think about it, the Vendetta means we don't have to deal with the Weapon Hunters.
* ChadWinters steps off the shuttle, glancing around.
<DeathStar> <X> ... *she studies the roottop she landed on, with the Senate/Presidental Building up ahead*
<Xanatos> <Cole> Hm. Yeah, fair.
<DeathStar> <John> Last time we were here Zayne dropped a ceiling on us
<DeathStar> *Wyrd eyes Chris*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> We should endevour not to have that happen again. Though... they want to take down the circle as much as we do.
<SaraLaptop> * Chris frowns
<ChadWinters> They'll be a problem eventually.
<DeathStar> *Zephyr eyes the evening sky, the moon appearing despite it not being quite dark* I wonder how the moon is doing
<DeathStar> *X leaps off the roof and begins to head toward the Senate part of the building*
<Xanatos> <Cole> It's still there. Thanks to us. 6* He smiles
<Seraphna> Reese> Terribly with a side of terrible.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole hops off shortly after X, moving behind her.
<ChadWinters> Depends on what type of rule they're inflicting on the citizens up there.
<DeathStar> *John leaps into Tabetha's arms to jump off with him*
* ChadWinters glances down the side of the building to see how far down it is
<Seraphna> **Tabetha sighs and does so**
<DeathStar> *Wyrd floats down, quiet, wearing a hood up; the building is 2 stories*
<Seraphna> **Reese hops down as well, being a Dragoon even if he doesn't make a big deal about it**
<DeathStar> *X forms a ripple for Chris*
<Seraphna> **Truth steps through that with Chris**
* ChadWinters moves through the ripple before it closes
<DeathStar> *John hops off Tabetha's arms* Thank you, Prince.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> No problem Princess.
<DeathStar> *as they near the Senate area, they would notice cameras, security in the form of defense system to scan and find anyone with weapons or ID anyone facially anyone that is on lists and target them, as well as human guards standing at doors, doing pat downs and checking who enters.*
<DeathStar> *X studies from the distance, just out of range on the street, trying to act like a civilian just watching the building and taking it all in*
<DeathStar> <John> So do we do this the rushing way or stealth way?
<ChadWinters> Rushing in would be dangerous. I'd prefer to do stealth.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> We attempt stealth until that fails, then rush the rest of the way.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... *she muses, her eyes changing colors to a blueish color*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole begins counting and calling out each camera location to the rest of the group.
<DeathStar> *there seems to at least 10 in this area, many overlapping*
* ChadWinters takes note from Cole.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> If you cannot override the cameras I can try to deal with the guards
<Xanatos> <Cole> We could take one out quietly but guards will definitely come check it out.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> One moment
<DeathStar> *Zephyr focuses, then begins to look smaller*
<ChadWinters> If I can access them, I might be able to do something, but with so many people crossing them, they'll see somethings up
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Loop the footage?
<DeathStar> *Zephyr soon looks like her original age, 14/15.* Unfortunately, I'm now much weaker in this state
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Lets see if this works
<ChadWinters> If they don't see people cross it, or the same people, it'll be pointless
<DeathStar> *Zephyr approaches the door at the far end, making sure to keep her head down just enough the cameras can't catch it, angling it in such a way each time to avoid them*
<DeathStar> *but acting natural*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole tilts his head.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Did you all know she can shrink like that?
<DeathStar> <John> I thought she lost the ability
<ChadWinters> Apparently not.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Yeah, age control is her primary quirk.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> But when she was younger it was child to adult... so maybe it just needed to shift?
<DeathStar> <X> Zephyr has been weird since the Venerator Intelligence situation
<DeathStar> <X> Something happened during that when incident
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Well... I could try and find out if she's alright... wasn't Venerator her Donor?
<Xanatos> <Cole> ... is that something we should like...investigate?
<DeathStar> *Zephyr talks to the guards, putting on a good act of a teenager; whatever she is talking, the guards point at a building further down the street, giving directions. Zephyr leans forward, a little too close and getting one of the guards to notice her assets as she listens*
<ChadWinters> Could just ask her.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *seems to be nodding as she listens, then moves back, leaving in said direction. After a decent amount of time, she circles back around behind the group, holding up an entry key to the building*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Here. If we can get past the cameras this will unlock level 1 doors.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Maybe 2
<ChadWinters> Good job.
* ChadWinters pulls out his datapad, seeing if he can access the buildings security cameras
<Seraphna> **Tabetha nods** Can always hope the people manning the monitors are your usual bored, underpaid guards.
<DeathStar> <John> Like Dias?
<DeathStar> *Chad would see tied to a complicated EarthGov system with many defenses. Gor for once would be useful*
<DeathStar> *but it could be hacked*
* ChadWinters taps his comm. 1"Kane, I'm gonna send you a system we're looking at. Think you could assist me with this?"
<Xanatos> <Kane> *c* Understood
* ChadWinters opens his datapad to give Kane access to ti.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane uses Master Hack to help Chad bypass an OG game.
<DeathStar> *Kane would see the ultimate OG that I just know he's going to use his move for: Up, Down, Left, Right, Down, Down, Up, Up, Down, Left, Right, Right, Left, Down--see*
<ChadWinters> durluuddurllru
* Sathen is now known as Stretch`cell
<ChadWinters> <c> Nice work, Kane.
<DeathStar> *The cameras are blocked, but Kane gets a frowny face*
<Xanatos> <Kane> *C* Be quick, it may not last long.
<ChadWinters> <c> Understood. 6He looks at the others. 1"We've got the cameras taken care of for a little bit, so we should start moving
<DeathStar> *Zephyr's eyes go back to normal and she moves back to a side door, using the key and entering the building. John and Wyrd follow*
* ChadWinters moves alonger after Zephyr and the group
<DeathStar> *the building is mostly the same for the most part. Officer workers and employees, some civilians, etc*
<Seraphna> **Tab, Reese and Truth follow**
<Xanatos> 6* Cole moves after them taking up the rear.
<DeathStar> <John> So stairs or elevators? *he eyes a map of the building, seeing the offices they want*
<Xanatos> <Cole> Stairs? You fleshy meatsacks need to get SOME cardio out of this, right?
<DeathStar> <John> Elevators get a bad rep
<DeathStar> *John walks up the stairs*
<DeathStar> *Wyrd follows along, getting looks for her hood*
<ChadWinters> I haven't hit my steps yet today. 6He shrugs as he moves up the steps
<Seraphna> **Tabetha shrugs and heads up the stairs, Truth heads up, Reese starts heading up too**
<DeathStar> *reaching the floor with Hamilton's office, Zephyr walks along until they are right there*
<DeathStar> <John> So, plan?
<ChadWinters> I imagine, capture him, bring him back to the base to interrogate.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Seems to be our only choice?
<DeathStar> <X> That is ap lan I guess
<DeathStar> *X seems to be thinking, quiet so far*
<Xanatos> <Cole> Pop him now, one more enemy down. 6* He nods
<DeathStar> <X> I do not want him killed
<DeathStar> <X> I want answers
<DeathStar> <X> *she opens the door forcefully to scare whoever is on the other side and steps in quickly; a woman is inside behind a small desk makes a surprised sound, dropping some paperwork*
<DeathStar> <Woman> Ehh?!
<DeathStar> *John and Zephyr follow in quickly*
* ChadWinters moves in after X, his eyes darting around quickly
<Seraphna> **Tabetha tries to make the woman faint**
<DeathStar> *The woman passes out*
<DeathStar> *there's some signs that some staffers have been working in the room recently, but have stepped out*
<DeathStar> *X eyes the paperwork and looks around; there's a door in the back of the room leading somewhere else*
* ChadWinters nods to the back door to X
<Seraphna> **Tabetha nods a bit and takes the opportunity to start sticking those hard drive copy devices onto the office machines in case they can get some useful data** Probably in an office beyond?
<Xanatos> 6* Cole checks to make sure the woman didn't hit her head or anything serious when she fell, giving Tabetha a thumbs up.
<DeathStar> <X> ... *she flips through, looking for some secret documents*
* ChadWinters moves towards the back door, pulling his gun out and switching it to stun. He listens for a moment
<DeathStar> *it sounds quiet*
<SaraLaptop> * Chris, who has totally been along for everything despite her player's idleness, tries to help out X
<ChadWinters> Cole. 6He motions to the door.
<DeathStar> *it looks like the woman was looking through stuff about a vote on the Senate floor*
<DeathStar> *and doing calls*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole glances to Chad and moves over to open the door.
<DeathStar> *it is definitely Hamiliton's office. It looks empty. A desk is there and some stress balls; looks completely oridinary*
* ChadWinters moves in, taking in the room quickly as he looks for any signs of recent use
<DeathStar> *seems not for the last few hours*
<DeathStar> <Wyrd> ... *looks annoyed*
<Seraphna> Truth> Is the senate meeting now...?
<Xanatos> 6* Cole scratches his chin.
<ChadWinters> Seem's we missed him. 6He moves towards Hamiltons desk, looking for anything important on it
<DeathStar> *X looks frustrated and throws the paperwork across the room*
<Xanatos> <Cole> Sometimes senate guys are meeting for hours aren't they?
<DeathStar> <X> He's in a senate meeting?
<DeathStar> *storms off* Fuck it
<DeathStar> <John> Uh..
<Xanatos> <Cole> Ohhh I've seen this before. We can try to stop her. Try.
* ChadWinters glances up from his desk and out to the other room. 1"This isn't going to end well.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> I was going to suggest we set up an ambush in the office...
<DeathStar> *Chad would see documents and paperwork in the desk; stuff the Senator is working on. Like getting Repliforce and stuff, things about Denham and dealing with him in the Senate legally, all legit stuff*
* ChadWinters grabs as much stuff as he can and moves to the 1st room
<DeathStar> *Wyrd follows*
* ChadWinters leaves the boring stuff alone
<DeathStar> <X> There won't be anything we want in here. I'm going to deal with him now
<Xanatos> 6* Cole slowly looks around for some secret door thing, planning on catching up with X after a quick look.
<DeathStar> <X> MArcus and Dias will make a mess right about now and he'l llearn about it in a meeting
<Xanatos> <Cole> Oh.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Good point. 6* He moves out after X quickly.
* ChadWinters moves to catch up with X and Cole
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> X has been acting odd lately. *she notes; funny since X said it about her*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> You've both been a bit odd lately.
<DeathStar> *John hurries along* Why are all the women on this time crazy
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *arches an eyebrow, giving Tabetha a look*
<Seraphna> **Tab, Reese and Truth follow**
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Maybe it's just the stress of all this.
* ChadWinters glances at Zephyr. 1"She has been since she chose to become a hybrid."
<Seraphna> **Tabetha feels her thoughts** Zephyr... you okay yourself? You've been different since that Venerator incident.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Maybe. But she dealt with it fine two years. *they reach the Senator doors. Two guards stand in the way*
<DeathStar> <X> John. Cole
<SaraLaptop> * Chris follows after X
<ChadWinters> That's two years for a consequence to show up.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yes. We all change, Tabetha
<DeathStar> *John rushes and elbow strikes the guard on the left and flips him on the back*
<DeathStar> <John> ... that is what she wanted, right?
<DeathStar> *the other guard reaches for his comm, aiming a gun at John*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole slides up and karate chops
<Seraphna> **Tabetha smiles softly, clearly just concerned, or doing her thing of trying to trigger thoughts in people, she shrugs to John**
<DeathStar> *the guard unghs. John drags the bodies and dumps them in trash cans - poorly. Their legs stick out*
<Xanatos> <Cole> Two guards and she said our names? I think so.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole pulls their shoes off.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> There's probably internal security too.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Now they just look like passed out homeless people. 6* He taps his head.
<DeathStar> *X opens the doors and reporters record them as the Senate does their things. X slides into the back, scanning the area. One thing that stands out is Reploids are now posing as guards, scanning the room*
<DeathStar> *Wyrd looks across the area for their target. Hale and Peter are in the front of the room*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha inwardly sighs, they at least see two known shifters**
<Seraphna> **Reese's face hardens, but he keeps it together for now**
* ChadWinters moves in, staying near the back
<DeathStar> *X taps her comm and talks to someone, nodding* Do it. *she talks to whoever it is*
<Xanatos> 6* Coles demeanor changes as soon as he sees the other reploids. He frowns.
<DeathStar> *Senator Hamiliton can be seen and he walks up, takling with Reploids protecting him* We now must vote on what to do about the Moon situation. I propose we deal with it as all the power of EarthGov - the Armada must be sent to bring down the shield. Who knows how many ships of the Moon Fleet this terrorist now has in her hands
<DeathStar> <X> There
* ChadWinters locks his gaze on Hamilton and the reploids guarding him
<DeathStar> *a few Senators protest - the shield and the damage could hurt the Moon and the civilians, but Hamiliton argues that Sunny could use those teleporters to send attacks back to Earth*
<DeathStar> <X> I'm doing it now
<DeathStar> *she steps forward, opening a ripple* I'm grabbing him and pulling him out
<Seraphna> **Truth nods**
* ChadWinters tenses a bit, keeping his guard up now
<DeathStar> *X leaps through the ripple and appears behind Hamiliton. She grabs Hamiliton and the Senate jerks, going into an uproar. The reploids turn and instinctively grab X before even realizing who she is - that is how fast they are*
<DeathStar> <John> Oh boy, it's begun
* ChadWinters fires two quick stun shots for the reploids arm joints
<Xanatos> 6* Cole tenses, waiting to backup teleport for X if he has too.
<Seraphna> **Tabetha reaches out and tries to disable the reploids temporarily with TK, using what she knows about Reploid parts, having rebuiilt Cole more than once**
<DeathStar> *Hamiliton scurries away and points, shouting stuff as the Senate begins to empty, thinking it's a terrorist attack; only the Hale and Peter remain behind. The Reploids are hit and let go. John reushes forward*
* ChadWinters eyes Hamilton trying to get away and fires 3 stun shots up in the air and then curves them down towards him.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole leaps over a desk and forms his miniguns, approaching Hale and Peter from behind.
<DeathStar> *Hale and Peter in the confusion make their arms extend, tripping Chad as he fires, making the shots go somewhat wild, though one hits him in the leg, and one arm goes for Cole*
<Seraphna> *Truth steps in slowly and deliberately, eyes on the false senators, she leaps and slices at one of the arms**
<Seraphna> **Reese gives both falsey's Bad Luck**
<Xanatos> 6* Cole fires minigun shots at the arm coming for him.
<DeathStar> *John leaps up when suddenly a ripple appears as John reaches out for Hamilton. A ripple appears, and on the random number, only knicks the arm, instead of serving it, making blood spew everywhere*
* ChadWinters as he loses his balance, his slides his hand along his belt, pulling out a small blade and he swings it down at the extended arm
<DeathStar> *John rolls and tumbles as Faux X appears*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha rolls and catches John, giving him her healing as she stands up with him**
* ChadWinters clicks his tongue. 1"Only a matter of time before she appears."
<DeathStar> <X> ... *she eyes the counter part, then Hamilton who is crawling. At that moment, the door crashes in with Em, Peter, and Hale, the real ones* <Em> Everyone, we'll deal with the fake Shapeshifters. We have a grudge match with them. *The shapeshifters have retreated somewhat due to the attacks, eyeing the three newcomers*
<DeathStar> <John> ... Thanks
<DeathStar> *he rises*
* ChadWinters stands up now, keeping his eyes locked on Faux X
<Seraphna> **Reese shifts to join Peter, who draws out two pistols**
<kalonZombie> 6*Hale raises his rifle and fires at the DoppleHale, stun rounds in case he misses and hits an innocent
<Xanatos> <Cole> I can go for the guy if you have a grudge. 6* He tells X about the clone. Or is he talking to the clone?
<DeathStar> *Faux X lifts Hamiliton up to his feet, eyeing the team and begins to try to move him into the back of the Senate Hall away from them* <X> Don't let them get away. *she nods to Cole* He has answers and I want them
<DeathStar> *the Shapeshifter Hale stumbles and rolls, forming giant hands to do battle*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole salutes and teleports between F-X and the exit.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Town Hall
<DeathStar> Marcus, Dias, Cherry, Angela, Mi'Na, Lemon, Ren, Reikana, Vesta are at a small town hall, that doesn't look very big and doesn't have a lot of hiding spots*
<DeathStar> *Ren has her arms crossed, looking thoughtful*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Well shit.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Soooo... they meant a literal townhall?"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus is wearing a wig and 'nerd' glasses.
<ChadWinters> <Dias> The small town halls were the fun ones.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea is there as well, calmly looking around at any civilians nearby*
* SaraLaptop has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 183 seconds)
* SaraLaptop has joined #TAW-Session384
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Really? It doesn't look like one of your Punch-o-mania events."
<Seraphna> **Angela muses, looking a bit more Gitari after a disguise kit** It makes an ambush hard, but also makes a stealthy exit hard.
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Those were fun too!
<DeathStar> *a wrestler is on stage showing off moves to entertain the crows*
<DeathStar> *As the time approaches*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> So how do you want to play this, Marcus?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...of course, he would have a pro wrestler for entertainment..."
<DeathStar> *Ren flops onto her back. Vesta talks with Lemon while Cherry is on stand by*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hey man I"m just here to support you. This guy took everything from you and I'm going to help you get it back.
<Seraphna> Angela> We can't just challenge him to a match could we?
<ChadWinters> <Dias> The direct approach. I'm down for there!
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> ...That's so stupid it might work?
<ChadWinters> *thaT*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Who, the wrestler?
<DeathStar> *the time for Dias arrives but the wrestling performer goes into his next act, lifting audience members and lifting them up*
<DeathStar> *he's now lifting 4 of them*
<Stretch`cell> Rea> In the event that there is a fight we need to make sure that we clear any innocent bystanders out so they aren't used against us.
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Man that guys strong.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Are we sure the wrestler isn't Not-Dias in disguise. That is totally the type of gag entrance the real Dias would use..."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> .... 6* He looks at Rei and then the wrestler and then Rei again.
<Seraphna> Angela> If Fias really fancies himself the new Dias and a hero, he'd never turn down a public cage match.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> If the wrestler isn't Fias, I"m going to be sad now.
<DeathStar> *the team is beginning to feel tired and sluggish; the wrestler yawns and begins to wrestler volunteers now*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias sniffs the air, tilting his head towards the wrestler
<DeathStar> *the audience looks restless and tired,too*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias begins moving through the audience towards the wrestler
<Stretch`cell> *Rea shakes his head at the grogginess and uses his ground out to nullify anything that is affecting him*
<Seraphna> Angela> What the... fuck...? **she frowns, peering about**
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "And here we go..."
<DeathStar> *the wrestler nods to Dias, motioning onto the stage*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Something's going on. I feel...off.
<DeathStar> *Ren leans against Reikana, half-asleep. Vesta watches*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Mmmm
<ChadWinters> 6Dias grabs the edge of the stage and flips himself up onto it, landing on his feet
<Seraphna> Angela> I think something is draining us. **she grumbles**
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...crap... must be a trap..."
<DeathStar> *the team feels super weak now*
<Stretch`cell> *Rea looks around to see if there's anything that could be generating the drain*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We got the other Wyrd didn't we? What the hell?
<DeathStar> *the audience is now asleep
<Seraphna> Angela> We did...
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "We need to put some distance between us and the building now..."
<ChadWinters> 6Dias eyes the wrestler, seeing if he looks tired also
<DeathStar> *the wrestler goes to wrestle, then falls over asleep*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus slowly begins to move towards the exit.
<Seraphna> **Angela nods, growling and lifting herself up**
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *tries to help Ren move for the exit*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> That's boring...."6He slaps himself across the face as he looks around. 1"COME OUT COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE!"
<DeathStar> *and the team collapses finally*
<Stretch`cell> *Rea shakes his head and stomps on his own foot but slips to the ground along with the rest*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias falls asleep, standing, drool forming
<DeathStar> *the team would eventually wake up, with powerful alien bindings, their stats quarter right now. President Dias is there as the vehicle they are in is transporting them*
<DeathStar> *he leans back, relaxing*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias snorts awake, testing his restraints.
<DeathStar> *Ren lays on her side, opening one eye. Lemon wakes weakly and wiggles*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Ughhh, my head...
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Oooh boy that was quite the move.
<Seraphna> **Angela remains still, concentrating**
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Nnnf... this is not the most fun I've had tied up to a chair
<DeathStar> <Vesta> Argh
<DeathStar> <President Dias> You're awake. It's so good of you to join us
<DeathStar> *he seems to be on the comm, trying to reach someonw*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> I should've never let you out of my sight when we had you originally restrained.
<DeathStar> *Dias, being weak, and the bindings made of unknown bindings, is strong enough to resist*
<Stretch`cell> *Rea groans in his seat and testing the restraints as well*
<DeathStar> <President Dias> You really didn't think I'd step onto the stage after you took out Ripple did you
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Depended on what level of shapeshifter you were.
<Seraphna> Angela> Weak.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *stays still and pretends to still be out cold*
<DeathStar> <President Dias> I made sure the location was small enough to gas you. Well I know many of you are resistant to gas, so I had to find gases that will affect you all. So we had to find various alien types. So sorry if there is any internal damage. And some of my own special Dark One homeworld gases mixed in
<DeathStar> <President Dias> As well as some other cocktails
<ChadWinters> 6Dias tries to activate his core ability to see if he can enhance his strength. 1"I noticed it didn't have trace smell either.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Fucking... was wondering how you managed to dose me when gitari are resistant to most poisons...
<DeathStar> *Dias could, but at 1/3rd strength he's still not strong enough to break it yet*
<DeathStar> <President Dias> So the question is what to do with you all.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus breathes slowly, eyes closed, as he tries to connect to the wolf inside.
<Seraphna> Angela> Mmm. **is working on her Omega Protocol, trying to get Montana in range**
<DeathStar> <President Dias> *the vehicle stops* I could put you in that Prison. And oh yes. You can try to use your abilities. I have people outside to shoot down any Betas
<DeathStar> <President Dias> So please try
<DeathStar> <President Dias> And go ahead and wolf out if you want. Marcus ol' buddy.
<Seraphna> Angela> Mm, I wonder how many they could take before being overwhelmed. You're not the only person able to act like a bitch.
<Seraphna> Angela> But thank you for outlining that I have to worry about air cover.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea looks at Fias and focuses on trying to ground out the bindings holding Dias*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> We could just have a good ol' slug-out match between us.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> My guy, you are going to get yours. 6* He says after a bit.
<DeathStar> *the bindings are not energy based or tech based, so yeah*
<DeathStar> <President Dias* Rea, rea. I stayed with you all. I know your abilities
<DeathStar> <President Dias> Nice try. Keep wasting your energy when you're already at 1/3rd power
<Seraphna> Angela> Hmm. So no energy or tech in these things to worry about...
<DeathStar> <President Dias> IF you do manage to escape, we'll fight. Don't disappoint
<DeathStar> *he steps out and a oment later the car moves and can be heard entering something. Ceemnt begins to enter the armored car*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus would like to use his moron's luck ability to get out of his bindings?
<DeathStar> *the restraits are around the back and around the wrists, the arms and waist*
<ChadWinters> 6Dias glances around as he stands up now, looking down at the restraints. 1"He definetly capped us well. Its hards in this position to use any leverage to help.
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> <...I could try and shift to break my bindings but I don't know if there's cameras in here or not...>
<Stretch`cell> *Rea frowns* I really dont like Dark One manufacturing...
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Rei, can your living armor help you at all?
<Seraphna> Angela> I could try to take them into my subspace, then push them back out.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...those punks aren't Dark Ones...and I'm offended by their genetic appropriation."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Ungh, my head hurts
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Let me try..." *tries to get her synbiote to see if she can work off the restraints*
<DeathStar> <Vesta> I could try using fire but he might have taken it into consideration..
<Seraphna> Angela> Rei... can't you just... shift?
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "I could... but... but... you might then have to witness me slowly suffocating to death or soemthing as the restraints are sized for my smaller normal body."
<ChadWinters> 6Dias glances down at the cement slowly coming in he then looks around.
<DeathStar> *Lemon eyes the cement filling the armored car*
<Seraphna> Angela> Ohhh... wait a tick. **She squirms over to Mi'Na**
<DeathStar> <Ren> This is the best birthday, watching us be cemented
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We don't have much time. Just try anything. 6* He wiggles around, trying to work his off even if he has to dislocate a limb.
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na grins, shifting over to Angela
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Of course... maybe they are geared for our specific powers... so we could use each other's abilities to break free."
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Marcus, back up to me.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods and backs up to him.
<Seraphna> Angela> That was my thought... Mi, we're gonna Stigmata. At least one of the bindings should be left behind when our matter shifts.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea turns and tries to form his energy glaive along the back side of the armored car and so it doesnt cut anyone else*
<Xanatos> <MArcus> It's your birthday? Happy Birthday to youuuu~~~ 6* He begins to sing the birthday song.
<ChadWinters> 6Dias turns his back to him. He reachs to grabs onto his restraints. 1"Grab mine and on the count of 1 pull as hard as you can with me."
<DeathStar> <Ren> oh God..
<kalonZombie> <Mi'N> Right.
<DeathStar> *The armored car jerks a bit as it stops sinking*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses in his song and nods, grabbing Dias' bindings.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Dias... phrasing."
<DeathStar> *Rea manages to form a small version*
<DeathStar> *his system weak after all*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> 1. 6He lets out a growl as his face goes red as he begins pulling as hard as he can, using his enhanced strength with it
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus growls out as he pulls with all he can.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *tries to reach her symbiote over to try to work off Ren's restraints*
<DeathStar> *it jerks and begins to resink again*
<Seraphna> **Angela kisses Mi'Na and forms their Stigmata, so they become one, and hopefully leave at least one Binding behind in their wake, their Stigmata form being smaller and everything due to Angela's fairy thing**
<DeathStar> *the symbiote begins to try to reach around the restraits to Ren's*
<Stretch`cell> *Rea keeps focusing and tries to turn and hold it out* Blade for anyone?
<DeathStar> *combined they do 6 anf break the bindings on one of them - Dias and Marcus*
<DeathStar> *Angela and Mi'Na I guess being smaller would be freed*
<DeathStar> *Lemon uses it to cut herself free, though it takes time; the car jerks and is stopped sinking again, the cement touhing some of them now*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> What is going on up there?
<Seraphna> *Bungela moves over to work at Rei and Ren's bindings**
<DeathStar> *Ren jerks herself free with Rei's help, gasping*
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Not sure, once Marcus get's my bindings free, I'll figure that out
<Seraphna> Angela> It's not me, I have Montana waiting just out of range and marking support fire.
<DeathStar> *the car begins to rise quickly*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You're free.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea nods and moves to try and cut through his own bindings*
<DeathStar> *Lemon jerks herself free and works on Rea*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "...if its X's team... we'll never hear the end of it..."
<Seraphna> Angela> Couldn't have been that long...
<ChadWinters> 6Dias looks down then wiggles a bit and grabs Marcus' with both hands to break them
<Seraphna> Angela> ...Where is Cherry?
<Xanatos> (BREAK HIS HANDS!?)
<ChadWinters> *The bindings you twat*
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I was hoping it was Cherry, but god if it's X she is going go on and on and on.
<Seraphna> * Angela works on Rei's bindings next**
<DeathStar> *the armored car lands on solid ground*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> We hit the bottom... not good.
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Hmm...Doesn't seem like X's moves. 6He bounces a bit from the solid ground part.
<DeathStar> *Lemon finishes untying Rea as the armored door opens and Cherry is there*
<DeathStar> *bleeding and covered in ceement*
<Seraphna> **Angela forms her armor and sword, a holy shield on her arm** Oh... hey sis.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea
<Seraphna> **Angela touches her and uses her Full Heal power**
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Thanks Cherry! 6He moves out past her, patting her shoulder as he leaps and lands on the ground, looking around
<DeathStar> <Cherry> ... ... *she falls over, in loli form*
<DeathStar> *there is a ton of shapeshifters nd EarthGov soldiers on the ground*
<Seraphna> Angela> *Picks her up and holds her in the shielded arm**
<Stretch`cell> *Rea nods and moves to help cut the rest out once he's free*
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *climbs out* "...I'm getting tired of this..."
<Seraphna> **Angela has Montana move in, using the time to scout to avoid or take out fire as he comes**
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Cherry is out of the fight it seems
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Holy shit Cherry you really did a number on them. 6* He moves and lifts her up.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Thanks.
<Seraphna> Angela> *holding Cherry* You wanna carry her?
<DeathStar> <Cherry> I followed them...
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It seems there's only one place to go now. The Presidental/Senate Building.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Lets not tell X what happened here
<Xanatos> 6* Marcs shakes his head since I missed the Angela pick up and just pats Cherry on the back.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Let's go bust some heads now that our strongest ally did most of the work.
<DeathStar> <Warren on comms> You might want to hurry there. Something happened a few minutes ago
<ChadWinters> <Dias> Seem's the coward ran away. So much for being strong.
<Seraphna> **Angela nods and has Montana land by them** Angela Airlines, express pass.
<DeathStar> *he brings up on the datapad the scene in the Senate Building*
<kalonZombie> <Mi'Na> Oh, wow, look at that.
<DeathStar> <Warren on Comm> We think the other Dias is headed there to back her up
<Stretch`cell> Rea> we need to make sure that we dont fall to that gas again...
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "Did X actually screw up?"
<Seraphna> Angela> Best we can do is fly I think, unless Marcus has been hiding as of yet undiscovered wolf teleportation powers.
<DeathStar> <Warren on comm> Don't worry. We'll release our evidence soon. But it will only matter if you catch them
<ChadWinters> 6Dias leaps up on to Montana's head. 1"AWAY MY FLYING CHARIOT!
<Seraphna> Angela> Let's go in and save them, be big damn heroes.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus also leaps onto Montana.
<Stretch`cell> *Rea climbs on*
<DeathStar> *Ren gets on Montana* For once we're the calavary*
<Seraphna> *Angela hops up on her Dragon Mecha's back, like some kinda khaleesi.**
<DeathStar> <Lemon gets on, slinging cement off*
<kalonZombie> 6*Mi'Na is still formed into Angela, so she is riding Angela who is riding a dragon
<DeathStar> <Cherry> ... I think I got dark spears in my spine still despite being healed
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I think I have cement in my ear. I've only heard like half of what everyone has said.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *climbs up* "...I need to train with Cherry or soemthing... my strength is growing weaker the longer I use my power..."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Eh? Dark Spears?
<Seraphna> **Angela then concentates, lifting them all up and sending to another one for support**
<DeathStar> -To Be Concluded-
<Stretch`cell> Rea> Sounds like you need an extra power source...
