<DeathStar> Song 1: Battle of the Dark Generals
<DeathStar> *Ren moves behind Charlotte*
<DeathStar> *Andrea taps her arm* Well shit. *she eyes the heart behind the generals*
<Seraphna> **Jaime stands ready, looking determined** So... we just need to down one of these you think?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I Think we can only manage one. If we try to take all of them on, we'll die
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Alright. We'll do what we can.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...and how, mother.. are we to do that with all of them standing in the room together?"
<DeathStar> *the one generating a powerful menacing aura, stays in the back, leaning against the wall. He lifts his hand and suddenly, Andrea sits up blood as 40 Damage is dealt to her*
* Sara has joined #TAW-Session500
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Focus fire."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "M-mother!" *gives a glare at the dark aura*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Shit.. get ready, and try to avoid that one.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "... that's not what I *want* to do, but..."
<DeathStar> *Andrea stands there weakly, not having much HP left since she does not have much armor*
<Jackieness> <Noire> *steps in front of her mother*
<DeathStar> *The Fighter type stands up to face Noire and launches a 20 damage at her since he's protecting her*
<DeathStar> <Ren> They're hitting way too hard
<Seraphna> **Tabetha frowns, nodding about something**
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...nnnn..."
<DeathStar> *the assassin moves in the shadows and goes for Charlotte, attacking her 15 HP damage and attempting to poison her for 1 in 3 chance. One moment*
<DeathStar> *Charlotte is not poisoned*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Alright, so, who should we focus our efforts on
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...I'm listening..."
<Seraphna> Tabetha> I would say the Assassin would fall quickest.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I *want* to take down this one first..."
<DeathStar> *as they talk, the wall spits out Dias*
* DeathStar changes topic to 'Turn Order: Dark Aura, Dark Fighter, Dark Assassin, Andrea, Dias, Ren, Tabetha, , Noire, Charlotte , Jaime | http://thealienwars.com/TAW6/DaCapo/500-L.rar |http://www.thealienwars.com/TAW6/DaCapo/Bios/OldStats.txt .'
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Yeah, lets take down the Assassin, I have a plan."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Well, finally."
<Dias`> 6Dias lands on his feet, wiping dark one material off him as he peers around. 1"I thought I felt a challenge here."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "You felt right. Help us take down these two, then we'll see what we can do about the third."
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Punch the skinny one.
<DeathStar> *Andrea focuses on the assassin*
<Dias`> <Dias> I think I can manage that one. 6Dias eyes the stronger one, giving off the dark aura.
<Dias`> <Dias> You just wait til I get warmed up.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Dias, focus on what we tell you to hit!"
<DeathStar> *she turns into her true Dark One form, doubling her stats*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Warm up on these two."
<DeathStar> *the Aura eyes Dias, as if challenging him*
<Dias`> 6Dias cracks his knuckles, a grin on his face as the air around him suddenly changes temperature from warm to a hellish pressure that curves outwards towards the three Dark Ones. *Killing Intent* 1/4 chances to stun
<DeathStar> *The Aura's aura cancels it, no need to even check it, the Fighter is fine, the assassin is stunned for the next round*
<DeathStar> *Ren steps up, bouncing and prepares*
<DeathStar> *Ren uses her foxfire to cast a shield around the party, one moment to do the calculations*
<DeathStar> 30 / 7
<DeathStar> *Everyone gets an extra 4 armor
<Seraphna> **Tabetha focuses for a moment and uses Battlemind, doubling everyone's damage for two rounds till her turn then, she shifts her stance into one like Spade's battle stance, getting ready to dodge blows as she coordinates the team**
<Jackieness> <Noire> *stomps a foot and poses as she lets out a sadistic laugh, lashing her Dark Edge out as it elongates like a whip to try to strike the Assasssin: Umbral Lash
<DeathStar> *the ceiling rumbles as Marcus falls in*
<Dias`> <Dias> Right on time, Marcus.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus makes a face and slings goops off of his arms, making a face. Then turns to eye the 3 generals and the others. Using his turn to shift into alpha werewolf form. His bones shift and crack as he grows in size.

<DeathStar> Song 2: Battle
<DeathStar> <Ren> I think we can do this?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Absolutely."
<Alicia> * Charlotte's confidence is only partially faked!
<Dias`> <Dias> Don't get to confident.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Says the man who was going to go punch the strongest of them in the face!"
<DeathStar> *Aura still seems to be challenging Dias with his body language as it's now Charlotte's turn*
<Dias`> <Dias> I still plan on it.
<Alicia> * Charlotte lashes out at the Dark Assassin with a combination of tendrils and a palm strike. Strangely, it doesn't seem to be much of a damaging strike, yet Charlotte glows with dark energy afterwards. [ Sin of Gluttony, draining Endurance ]
<DeathStar> *she got the max 3*
<Seraphna> **Jaime snaps her fingers, Gnome appearing and melding with her as she forms a rock fist and sends it sailing at the Assassin, not intending to let him recover with an edge. The Muddy Rock fist explodes on impact and just gets sticky mud EVERYWHERE on the Assassin**
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Your strength and power now become mine."
<DeathStar> *HP has gone up*
<Seraphna> ((Double Summon Timer from Summon Increase Time Perk)), [Gaia’s Might: Godhood multipler (+11 for 9) x 2 + Strength multipler (+3 for 7) + 16 Damage (Gnome) = 70 Damage + Earth Damage and Slow (Mud)] x 2 = 140 Damage + Earth & Slow, 3 Rounds to Recharge Move
<DeathStar> -Round 1 is over-
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT, recall your damage and ability spending from Tuesday and now-
<DeathStar> Location: Deep Space
<DeathStar> Song 3: Back Up
<DeathStar> *Cheryl flies in closer*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think this is the entrance
<Seraphna> **Angela flies in, her Betas following as a tandem force**
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "Lets go."
<DeathStar> *Cheryl forms a giant whip for Angela to destroy the wall of the ship that landed on the planet*
<Seraphna> **Angela attacks the wall**
<DeathStar> *they enter the spaceship where massive Dark One sentries begin to go after them. John flies the space ship with Zephyr, Hotaru, and Michiru after them*
<Seraphna> **Angela sends one attack towards the Sentinel as she moves Montana to come at it's side**
<DeathStar> *Ariel stares ahead as they navigate the tight hallways, the shuttle barely fitting inside it*
<DeathStar> *the hull repairs itself, sealing them in as they navigate the insides*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Are we sure we want to be inside here?
<Seraphna> Angela> This is like old times. And... yes, I think we do. Someone had to cause this. I think we have friends aboard.
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "We can't attack them from outside."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Better than doing nothing. *as they fly along, their sensors pick up something further inside*
<Seraphna> Angela> And seeing as it's the ship exploding from the inside, my guess is Dias.
<DeathStar> <John> Dias is so over-rated. My vote is Marcus
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "Why not both?"
<DeathStar> <John> Fair enough.
<Seraphna> Angela> Anyone feeling anything? Dark senses, bonds, the lot?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> My guess is that it's the younger kids like Noire
<DeathStar> <John> Lets just shoot around until we find someone
<Alicia> <Michiru> "What else can we do?"
<DeathStar> *John fires missiles ahead and opens passages*
<Seraphna> Angela> A plan worthy of John McCormick.
<DeathStar> *John telling Michiru that is how it's done*
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "If it works, it works."
<Seraphna> **Her other beta fires beams from it's head, more quick and graceful than Montana**
<DeathStar> *Cheryl grumbles to Angela mentally*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Back to the Battle
<DeathStar> Turn 2
<DeathStar> Song 4: Great Battle
<DeathStar> *The Aura Dark One steps forward, finally moving a bit*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Oh no. ...
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...as I said, mother... its hard to do just one with all ofb them here..."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Lets take down the small fries quick. We'll need to concentrate on that one."
<Dias`> <Dias> Get ready everyone.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> That is true. *The Aura one warps for Noire and prepares to hit her with a 60 attack, planning to out right flatten her. She has a slim chance to stop it. Prepare yourself.*

* Set by DeathStar!~Mysteriou@206.180.133.8 on Mon May 10 20:06:02
* Jackieness sets mode: +o DeathStar
<DeathStar> *Dark Fighter steps up and attacks Tabetha, seeing her buffing to be a threat, doing 30 Damage + Dark*
<DeathStar> *and the assassin tries to shake herself out of stun, one second*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha activates Ace of Spades (Cancel Damage - 2 Attacks) and seems to gracefully side step before leaping out of the way**
<DeathStar> *fails*
<DeathStar> *Andrea, being in double stat mode and having Tabetha's buff, steps up*
<DeathStar> *unleashing 156 Damage, she is currently immune to damage, that is now doubled and a bit more with her stats so let me do the math while Dias goes*
<Dias`> 6Dias begins walking towards the Aura one, the bandage on his left arm, starting to glow white from Holy energy. *Primary Ability/Weapon Activation*
<Dias`> 6Dias then moves up to him and throws a haymaker for his jaw, releasing a pulse of Holy energy from his fist. 13+Holy
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Dias! The plan!"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...does that fool not listen?!"
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "He does not!"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Not once in his life. Keep focus.
<DeathStar> *the Dark One grins, the holy burns just a little, sizzling as it grins like Dias*
<DeathStar> *Ren focuses on the Assassin*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Drop their stabber!"
<DeathStar> *Ren recharges with an ability, running low*
<Dias`> <Dias> Seem's you've gotten denser since we last fought.
<DeathStar> *Ren leaps into the shadows and attacks the assassin with her weapon, charged with kitsune energy for 104 doubled thanks to Tabetha*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha having used a move to defend, has lost this round's turn! But she dodged all slick like so that's cool.**
<Seraphna> ((1 Round left on Double Damage))
<Jackieness> <Noire> *uses the distraction to slip away from the Dark Aura user and charges for the assassin, seeking to run her through with her Dark Edge*
<DeathStar> *The assassin looks unwell*
<DeathStar> *gooy droplets falling on the ground*
<DeathStar> Song 2: Battle
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus kneels and leaps forward, arms growing slightly in size even more and bring both downward in a double axe slam for the assassin. (Wolf Parts: 88 damage is the base I have no idea what it is doubled stats with Alpha Werewolf and doubled due to Tabetha)
<DeathStar> *Marcus hears the words OVERKILL somehow in his head as the assassin explodes all over him*
<DeathStar> *due to low HP*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps on the assassin body as it collapses and snarls at the other two, flexing.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "I should be mad about the mess... yet there is somethign satisfying as well..."
<DeathStar> *suddenly the wall on the other side collapses and Cheryl and a shuttle appears*
<DeathStar> *John tumbles in*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> ...
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...well...this is a thing."
<DeathStar> *The Aura Dark One looks annoyed*
<Seraphna> Angela> Hey! Look I was right... so was everyone else!
<Seraphna> **Montana lands and punches a fist into palm, eyeing Fighter for Round 2 of their epic battle**
* Retrieving #TAW-Session500 modes...
<Alicia> * Charlotte watches the assassin explode and grins as she turns to face the fighter, changing into full dark one form before lashing out with a psychic strike and her Darkness Scream, trying to overwhelm the fighter with raw power. [Racial Move Circuits] [Sin of Wrath: -10 HP, double Mind and Godhood] [Double Strength Double Stats Darkness Scream*: Godhood multipler (+3 for 7) x 2 + Mind multiplier (+11 for
<Alicia> 9) x 2 = 240 damage + 1 in 4 chance to stun those with low Mind (1 - 3) or High Mind (7 - 10)] [Double Strength Double Stats Psionic Strike: Mind multipler (+11 for 9) = 160 + Dark]

<Seraphna> **Jaime, not to be outdone, terrifyingly fires Hyperspace from her combined form, blasting at the Fighter with a Goddess Blast of Spirity Proportions!** [Godhood multipler (+11 for 9) = 40 damage + Hyperspace Damage] x2 Tabby = 80 x 2 Element = 160 Damage + Hyperspace Burn
<DeathStar> *The Fighter has a low mindm in fact, it's 0 and you rolled a 1*
<DeathStar> *The Fighter is stunned*
<DeathStar> -Round 2... done...-

<DeathStar> <Andrea> We're going to keep doing this... seriously?
<DeathStar> *the Aura looks unamused now*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Personally I'm all for leaving, I can teleport us out. Just wasn't sure we had a choice here.
<DeathStar> *He just 60 damage punches at Jaime to drop her. No OG*
<Seraphna> **Since new Round, Jaime uses Gnome's Stone Shield, 40 Damage Absorb**
<Seraphna> **Jaime grunts, taking 12 damage and rock and mud flaking off her**
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I thought this one would be down already."
<DeathStar> *The Fighter is mind screwed*
<DeathStar> *Andrea uses her last restore to attack 78 doubled*
<DeathStar> *Zayne has been hovering about, not attacking so far, she seems to be there to provide back up a NPC incase you all need it which you clearly don't*
<Dias`> <Dias> My turn champ.
<Dias`> Dias slides his feet back as a massive amount of pressure erupts from his, the dark tattoo instantly expanding along his entire body before it suddenly shifts into a bright holy white. *Circuit* Dias takes a step forward and hurls his left fist into the Dark Aura's gut releasing a massive pusle of holy energy that spirals through him and out the other end, tearing through the ship
<Dias`> behind him. *Fist Lv.2 72+Holy+Pierce x6* He then steps with his other foot and throws an uppercut *Recharge ability Fist Lv. 1. 53+ Holy x6* He then follows up with a roundhouse kick a trail of Holy energy cracking across his foot.. *13 Damage + Holy* **Double Damage 1 (x2). Double Ability Damage 1 (x2)*
<DeathStar> Song 4: Great Battle
<DeathStar> *The Aura Dark One actually slides back, coughing a bit*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Damn. Here I was planning to run once we'd taken down two of them..."
<Dias`> 6Dias stands there, the ground cracked below him, as holy energy crackles off him and vanishes along with the white tattoo which shifts back to black.
<DeathStar> *Michiru is up*
<DeathStar> *John meanwhile seems to be messing with stuff in the background*
<Alicia> * Michiru concentrates, raising her hand as she blasts the fighter with TK. [TK Shockwave: Michiru uses her mind to cause a blast of TK force. Mind multipler (+3 for 7) x 2 = 20 Damage + 1 in 3 Knock Down]
<DeathStar> *Zayne uses magic to study her nails, occassionally looking out for Dark Maka to deal with*
<DeathStar> *The mind addled Fighter thankfully isn't knocked down; I'd be really annoyed if he was*
<DeathStar> *Ren hops up and spins*
<DeathStar> <Ren> *adjusting reality, clapping hands*
<DeathStar> *allows Charlotte another turn*
<DeathStar> *Ren steps to the side as Charlotte takes Ren's place*
<Alicia> * Charlotte lashes out once more with her heightened power psychic strike. Aren't psychic and reality powers great?
<Alicia> [Double Strength Double Stats Psionic Strike: Mind multipler (+11 for 9) = 160 + Dark]
<DeathStar> *The fighter falls over*
<DeathStar> *Then rises*
<Alicia> <Michiru> "Aww, that wasn't enough?"
<Seraphna> Angela> Keep laying it on him!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fine fine
<DeathStar> *Cheryl forms a duplicate, the two dancing around the fighter while he's stunend nd begin to whip up into the air and do 80 damage, then double it*
* DeathStar changes topic to '.Turn Order: Dark Aura, Dark Fighter, Andrea, Dias, Michiru, Ren, Cheryl, Hotaru, Angela Tabetha, , Noire, Marcus, Charlotte , Jaime | http://thealienwars.com/TAW6/DaCapo/500-L.rar |http://www.thealienwars.com/TAW6/DaCapo/Bios/OldStats.txt '
<Seraphna> Angela> Double the Cheryl. My Morale rises.
<Alicia> * Hotaru flings her scythe at the fighter as she enters the battle, it flying in an arc before returning to her hand. [Scythe Boomerang: Hotaru throws her and it comes back with a chance to hit the enemy twice. [Godhood multiplier (+11 for 9) x 2 + 26 Weapon Damage = 66 Damage + 1 in 3 chance x 2]
<DeathStar> *Hotaru just flatout kills the Fighter since with a double hit and double Tbetha, dead*
<Alicia> <Michiru> "Go Mom!"
<DeathStar> *the Fighter falls over with a scythe in him until it warps to Hotaru. The Aura eyes them all, raging*
<Dias`> <Dias> I'd say we finally got his attention. 6He shifts he feet in to a defensive stance as he takes deep breathes.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> We just decimated their leadership
<DeathStar> *John looks up, having killed the heart* Oh look at what I did
<DeathStar> *The ship begins to spasm*
<DeathStar> Song 5: Dark Events
<DeathStar> <Ren> Wait, what ? What did you do?
<DeathStar> *The Aura steps toward Angela since she's next in line to go*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "In that old man's defense, killing the ship was relaly the main reason we came on board."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Looks like we just won."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But there's still one left and he looks a bit damaged.
<DeathStar> *Zayne begins to float off* I'm out of here
<Dias`> <Dias> We haven't won until he's either dead or we can escape safely. And I don't think he's going to let us leave safely
<Seraphna> **Angela leaps and comes down hard on the Fighter with a sword crackling with Dragoon and Holy Energy, slaming it down into the fighter with all her strength.** [Strength 10 (+20) x 3 + Godhood 7 (+3) x2 + 32 Weapon Damage = 142 Damage
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Well, I guess we just have to force him to, then."
<DeathStar> *Aura is hit and stumbles back, some blood appearing*
<Seraphna> **Tabetha looks around and decides that today she woke up and chooses violence... also because Ace of Spades stil has a charge... she renews Battlemind**
<DeathStar> *Noire is up*
<Jackieness> <Noire> *then strikes out and tries to weaken the Dark Aura: Dark Absorption*
<DeathStar> *she weakens his attack al ittle and gains 1 Godhood*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps forward a bit past the assassin's body and kneels, digging all 4 claws into the ground. Suddenly lines begins to trace up and around his wolf form and he tenses, then his body vanishes and the air suctions inward to fill the space he left behind. He reappears in a blur in front of the dark aura and unleashes 3 clawed slashes of the 'wolf parts' ability. [Double Ability Damage Perks] [Double Damaghe Perk
<Xanatos> 2][Double Stats from Alpha Werewolf][Double Damage from Tabetha]: IT'S MATH TIME : (((10 x 2) + 20) x2) + (28) = 88 x 2 = 108(base hit) * 2 * 2 = 432 * 3 attacks = 1296 total
<Alicia> * Charlotte launches another psionic strike, this time at the Aura Dark One
<Alicia> [The Final Double Strength Double Stats Psionic Strike: Mind multipler (+11 for 9) = 160 + Dark]
<DeathStar> *Aura is blown back through a wall by MArcus, his body blown in half as Charlotte adds insult to injury even if the math was wrong. The body being sealed up as the ship begins to tremble and collapse*
<DeathStar> <John> I think we need to get out of here now
<Seraphna> Jaime> Everyone aboard!
<Dias`> 6Dias let's out a loud whistle and then a hoot and holler at Marcus
<DeathStar> *John gets into the shuttle, firing missiles at the area that the Aura monster went*
<DeathStar> <John> Pow pow pow
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Yes... let's go... I'm satisfied with the taste of his power that I stole away." *retreats to the ship*
<DeathStar> *Andrea gets in*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus's slumps almost immediately out of wolf form, kneeling and panting.
<Seraphna> **Jaime boards while Angela reforms with Cheryl, the Betas starting to blast a way out for them all**
<Alicia> * Charlotte hurries onto the ship, slumping back into her normal form
<DeathStar> *Ren helps Marcus onboard*
<Dias`> <Dias> And leave it to John to try and quote unquote clean up our kill, Marcus
<Seraphna> **Tabetha gets on board too**
<Dias`> 6Dias movers over to MArcus and helps with Ren
<Alicia> * Hotaru and Michiru hurry back on, Michiru using teleportation to hurry on faster, helping anyone slow
<DeathStar> <John> I'm just making sure your kill is really kill. Since more often than not.... *suddenly the wall busts in and a strange distorted monster begins to chase after them that looks like Aura but is now a hideous monster just giving off an aura of killing intent* That happens with you two
<DeathStar> *John begins to fly backwards and escape, while humming*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Great.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "So that one really was all they were hyped up to be."
<Dias`> <Dias> You've gotten stronger, Marcus. 6He peers out the back of the shuttle at the hideous monster and the aura of killing intent it's giving off, not being phased. 1"I'm all tapped out guys."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives Ren and Dias a weak pat of thanks and lets out a breath, laughing slightly to himself then winces as he's immediately sore all over.
<Seraphna> **Angela throws a Holy Shield around Cheryl as they fly and sends blasts from CHeryl's whip**
<Seraphna> **The slim Beta turns and fires a cannon style blast at the creatures while Beta keeps punching and blasting ahead of them to keep a path open**
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "You all did great." *works on healing the wounded as John flies*
<DeathStar> <John> Oh by the way, did I mention I don't know how to fly these things?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Oh no."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "As mother stated, we decimated their leadership. Only Sommelier is unaccounted for."
<Seraphna> Tabetha> I question why we did not mech mode.
<DeathStar> *John taps on buttons and begins to drop cargo to slow the monster down*
<Dias`> <Dias> We can tell by the horrendous scraping noise.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Someone take the helm from that dork.
<Dias`> <Dias> On it. 6He moves through the shuttle to get up and give John a hand
<DeathStar> *John swats Dias away* Like hell Dias is going to fly
<Dias`> <Dias> What the....6Dias swats John back
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "Stop it you two, someone needs to fly this thing!"
<Dias`> <Dias> I was a great pilot and a better mechaneer!
<DeathStar> *John moves hits another button to drop Jaime to fslow the monster down even more*
<Seraphna> **Jaime sighs and shifts into a seat to take the wheel while the boys slapfight** Takes a Durran I guess.
<Alicia> <CHarlotte> "Isn't Xanatos famous for his crashing?"
<DeathStar> *John aims the controls, ignoring Jaime's attempts to take the controls* Hotaru
<Seraphna> **Or not, instead she's seen dropping what looks like a Hyperspace Meteor down on the monster before portalling back in**
<DeathStar> <John> I knew that hyperspace girl was good for something
<Alicia> * Hotaru hurries to the controls, taking them if that's what's being asked for
<Dias`> <Dias> Oh please. I could easily outfly her.
<DeathStar> <John> Ready to help out, Hotaru? *whispers in her ears*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pulls himself up to a chair and looks around at everyone before letting out a sigh.
<Dias`> 6Dias leans towards Hotaru and whispers *"I don't know if thats true."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm..." *goes to tether herself into the ship and forms her Dark Edge, then expands it into the Darkness Glaive... then launches her super attack out the cargo door and at the Aura Beast's feet*
<Seraphna> Jaime> I feel like I missed comments about my awesome dad who flies well.
<Alicia> <Hotaru> "Oh, right..."
<DeathStar> *John grabs Hotaru in a hug and leaps out the back, forming into an awesome gear*
<DeathStar> *letting those onboard fight over who wants to fly*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "When did they..?"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Hey! That was my turn!
<Dias`> 6Dias instantly plops down and takes control.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> We share him. **she pouts**
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Tab, that buff you put on us all was incredible.
<DeathStar> *Noire hits the beast and rocks it back*
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Oh! Thanks!
<Dias`> <Dias> I'd advise everyone realyl hold themselves tight.
<Dias`> <Dias> And anything that's secure.
<DeathStar> *Hotaru Gear flies ahead and John slashes the wall with the scythe, making an opening and flies out*
<Dias`> 6Dias twists the shuttle, firing to make it wider if he needs to.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> ONe last thing... **she focuses and her guns form outside the ship, as she unleashes an assault of Mind Blasts** PROXIMA ASSAULT!
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Nnnnnn! Fly it steady, bakana!"
<DeathStar> *Ren rolls around in the back*
<Seraphna> **Angela pilots Cheryl through, Montana still running forward defense**
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I don't know how much was me, and how much was you, but I really pushed past my limits that fight." *goes to steady Ren*
<DeathStar> <Ren> We did it together!
<DeathStar> *she eyes the ship withering with the monster onboard, roaring after them as they all escape*
<Dias`> <Dias> I'm following the pat John and John's woman are making. Scythe isn't the widest thing.
<DeathStar> <John> Well, time to escape, *He spins the sycthe and lands on the shuttle, protecting it*
<Seraphna> Angela> **comms** I have Monty making it all bigger.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...is there anythign we might do to call in an orbital bombardment to make sure this thing won't come back?"
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Dragoons are amazing, aren't they?"
<Seraphna> **Angela nods** Yep... Adola 9... unleash final care package. Good girl.
<DeathStar> <Ren> We try
<Dias`> <Dias> I'd say we hope the PAX send a fleet in.
<Alicia> <Michiru> "That was crazy, though."
<Jackieness> <Noire> *turns to the others* "Mother, what have you to say?!"
<Seraphna> **The beta she left behind firing beams suddenly glows, then explodes in a self detonation just to add even more injury to insult. Yes, I worded that on purpose.**
<DeathStar> *Andrea eyes Noire, looking a bit unconscious* Huh?
<Jackieness> <Noire> *stides over to Andrea* "Mother, you are supposed to offer either words of praise or some cryptic warning."
<DeathStar> <Andrea> You did good, Noire. I am proud of you. And you Charlotte. And Marcus
<Seraphna> Angela> Cheryl... remind me later that Plutonium Diodes explode even MORE than Iridium.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Also, I think I'm bleeding out. Blargh
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Someone aid my mother!"
<DeathStar> *Andrea slumps*
<Dias`> <Dias> Andrea. Don't go quiting on us now.
<Seraphna> **Jaime muses, then touches Andrea and uses an ability point to feed her a dark tendril of energy**
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Where's our medic?" <Michiru> "Currently flying around, cutting us an escape route with her scythe."
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> *Taiga has gathered her team*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Alright, Jikuu, mysterious Vic fox
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We're about to go in
<Seraphna> **Si fuus**
<Seraphna> **Leyaeh sighs** Alright, I''ve packed a bunch of... survival options.
<Alicia> <Victoire> "So we can choose how to survive."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Anyone else joining us? No
<DeathStar> *Taiga gets into the little shuttle*
<DeathStar> *Adeline is there, wearing a suit*
<Alicia> <Victoire> "Ah.."
<Seraphna> **Leyaeh nods to her, getting in, Si popping in**
<Seraphna> **Thena appears wiggling on Taiga's lap**
<DeathStar> Song 6: Other Reality
<DeathStar> *they fly through Taiga's device*
<DeathStar> *and appear in outer space*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Alright, lets go in and grab the ship
<Seraphna> Si> And fight monsters!
<DeathStar> *Taiga navigates them and eventually they begin to approach the PAX*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Hopefully just that.
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Fascinating.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Well... this is a sight... first time I saw it like this I was a teenager.
<Alicia> <Victoire> "Wow..."
<Seraphna> Thena> My throne!
<DeathStar> *Taiga begins to approach the ship and soon begins to approach the hanger where they find some EarthGov like vessels in it, looking unused for ages*
<DeathStar> *Taiga lands their ship*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Huh... oh no...
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "Those vessels look familiar."
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Hm, they look like ships from Earth
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Yeah, standard class Earthgov Shuttles... the kind the team first boarded the PAX with.
<DeathStar> *she checks the air*
<Alicia> <Victoire> "I think we can safely say we're not the first here."
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> They didn't last terribly long... if they're still here... I hope those aren't the same ones.
<DeathStar> Song 7: Events
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Go in expecting hostiles.
<DeathStar> <Adeline> There is no air in here
<DeathStar> *Adeline marches and Taiga leads the way to the bridge*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> They never got life support running?
<DeathStar> <Adeline> There is some signs of the ship being on but is in sleep mode I believe
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Sleep mode...?
<Alicia> <Victoire> "Did they leave in a hurry, or...?"
<Seraphna> **Leyaeh nods** That's the state it was found in, they used a copy of CHIP to interface with the ship's AI to control things.
<DeathStar> *Taiga moves and tries the elevator and it comes on*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> There's a positive sign at least...
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Hm. *she steps onto the elevator and sees if she has access to 1A, finding she does not*
<Seraphna> **Thena bounces along** Would need Erevis' DNA!
<DeathStar> *Taiga grabs Jikuu and Thena, using both of them*
<Seraphna> Si> Fuuu.
<DeathStar> *the elevator seems to work*
<Seraphna> Thena> Well should be fine for either me or... Wise Seer Jikuu.
<Seraphna> **LEyaeh eyes Thena**
<Alicia> <Victoire> "That can't be the only thing that stopped them..."
<DeathStar> *Taiga takes them up to the bridge*
<DeathStar> *Adeline muses*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> It's a factor, at the time the only children Erevis had were infant Iko and Ako as well as Athena and Isis... if they ever came to this reality in this timeline.
<DeathStar> *as they reach the bridge, they find it all shut off with a skeleton at the controls with some long hair coming off of it*
<Alicia> * Jikuu heads over to the skeleton, looking at the hair.
<DeathStar> *Adeline works on restoring the ship*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> No... **she moves over, then takes off her glove, gently touching the Skeleton to trigger her ability to see the past of things**
<DeathStar> *the ship begins to boot up and consoles begin to come on, though weak due to lack of use*
<Alicia> <Victoire> "What happened here? Why did they turn the power off again... or did they never switch it on?"
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> There was a war here... this person's thoughts were on stopping the PAX from falling into the wrong hands....
<DeathStar> <Taiga> There seems to be some recordings here
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We can watch them once we're back
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> My Psychometry isn't psionic and more spirit, so my ability to gather info fades as the spirit fades.
<Alicia> <Victoire> "They might be important."
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Okay, we need to attach these devices all over the PAX to warp it to our PAX. *she passes large metallic discs*
<Seraphna> **Thena peers about and goes to check lifesigns on the ship**
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Let's get to it
<DeathStar> *There seem to be none*
<Alicia> <Jikuu> "Which war was it, anyway? Was it one we had in our timeline, too?""
<Seraphna> Thena> Okay... apparently nothing else on board. But things have evaded the sensors before.
<DeathStar> <Adeline> I'll stay here and watch the logs while you all ork
<DeathStar> *she sits down and begins to study the computer logs*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> I just saw a battle, the feeling of a protracted conflict meaning war, and this person seemingly sacrificing themselves.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Of course you will, Adeline
<Alicia> * Victoire merely feels for emotions, though expects nothing more than the current group's
<Seraphna> **Thena takes several and starts teleportingh her troops around the ship**
<DeathStar> *Taiga splits the remaining ones and heads off*

<DeathStar> (Ancient Folder)
<DeathStar> Song 1: Escape Battle
<DeathStar> *Gwen watches as they gather their relics to deal with Frost*
<DeathStar> <Celes> We need to meet up with the otehrs
<DeathStar> *she peers out the window at Frost guarding the exit*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah... where did they go?"
<DeathStar> <Celes> We all were seperated as we ran, so they have to be nearby
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Will these relics we got really help?
<Seraphna> **Alita nods and inspects the gem a little as they decide what to do next**
<Seraphna> Alita> The fire ones most certainly will. She is weakest to fire.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "We can only hope. If we had more time, I'd say definitely, but we're a little short on that."
<DeathStar> *Gwen fingers the water trident*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "A bit risky with her watchign the door..."
<DeathStar> *Celes opens the window and leaps out*
<Seraphna> Alita> I have one more meteor for her.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Celes just left."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...did she really just do that?!"
<Seraphna> **Alita follows out after her, wings unfurling to glide**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Yes."
<Seraphna> ** Talia giggles and leaps after them, sword forming in her hand**
<DeathStar> *As Celes lands, Frost focuses on her and Ceels begins to speed up, her green eyes beginning to look reddish again and her hair beginning to look blackish again for a moment as she avoids the attacks on her, too fast for even the spirit*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...ah... look, this is our chance to make a break."
<Seraphna> **Alita whispers and then points, sending a meteor of fire hurling down at Frost**
<Seraphna> **Talia spins in the air and sends out a lance of Mana at her too**
<Alicia> * Ceilidh follows Celes out now. "Is there a reason her hair colour changed?"
<DeathStar> *Frost is hit by the attacks, stumbling*
<DeathStar> *Gwen lands and rolls*
<DeathStar> *Neekito seems to be MIA*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ah... I... I'll take the lift..." *backs to the lift*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh sticks with Lana for now.
<DeathStar> *Celes' brief return to normalcy fades as Frost recovers*
<Jackieness> <Lana> *rides the lift down with Ceilidh and then ehads for the door when she gets down to the ground level*
<DeathStar> *She begins to grab Celes and Talia, freezing them when Neekito returns with Liana and Ellie*
<DeathStar> *along with her cook book*
<DeathStar> *And a few other odds and ends. She looks overloaded with stuff*
<Seraphna> **Talia waves and teleports to Alita's side, who shoots flames form her staff**
<DeathStar> *Talioa, as she tries to teleport, would find the act hard to do, as if she was teleporting through ice itself*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I guess we hold the entrance?"
<DeathStar> *And her flame barely forms. The ice touch still on her*
<Sara> <Ellie> ... Do I even want to know what's going on here
<DeathStar> *Celes strains to free herself, her body freezing into an ice sculpture*
<Seraphna> **Alita was the one shooring flames**
<DeathStar> (Ah, okay)
<DeathStar> *The fire hits Frost who turns, glaring*
<Sara> <Liana> Cel...?
<DeathStar> <Celes> B-Becareful...s-she is...corrupted...already..
<Alicia> * Ceilidh looks over her book, trying to figure out how to activate it. "Do you know the Croza for 'activate'?"
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Uh... um... no
<Seraphna> **Alita glares** Unhand them, or I get really hot and bothered.
<Jackieness> <Lana> *speaks out the activate word for Ceilidh*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh repeats it, in case that's it.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...and now... what am I doing?" *holds up the fire relic and tries using it agaisnt Frost*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon comes running up to the scene from one of the side street, sliding to a halt he looks around quickly to assess what's going on.
<DeathStar> *The fire relic activates and burns Frost, letting Celes go, who is nearly frozen, unable to move*
<DeathStar> *The book has the word activate on it and Ceilidh is assualted by thoughts in her head*
<Xanatos> 6* Blasts can be heard getting closer as Bix Bakugo's his way closer to the fight.
<Sara> <Ellie> So Lady Frost did this? Lady Frost, you can't just do whatever you please to people!
<Jackieness> <Lana> "The Renegade Croza already got to her, Ellie!"
<Sara> <Ellie> I... don't like to... give up on anyone.
<DeathStar> *Frost looks more insane than her present self as she rises, steaming from the fire attacks, breathing in* En.e..mies.
<Xanatos> 6* Simon jobs towards Celes, trying to pull her back away from the fight. He writes out a few runes into the sky to start applying a healing spell to her.
<Xanatos> (jogs)
<DeathStar> *suddenly Ceilidh's book has a great wind send Frost flying away*
<Dias`> 6Id pops out from Simon's satchel, quickly assessing the situation
<DeathStar> *as Gale lands there*
<DeathStar> *Celes makes a thankful noise to Simon, breathing easier*
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I don't know if this was the book, but thankyou anyway!"
<Jackieness> <Lana> "We really should escape before more craziness happens."
<Sara> <Ellie> Lady Gale!
<DeathStar> <Gale> I felt the desire to come here! Everyone okay? Why was Frost being mean?
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Lady Gale, there's a bad group of Croza that corrupted her."
<DeathStar> *Gale tilts her head and gasps* Really?!
<DeathStar> *Celes shakily stands up*
<Seraphna> **Talia squirms**
<DeathStar> <Celes> It seems that group really wants to stop us now
<DeathStar> <Celes> With Mal'oy being their pawn
<DeathStar> *Gwen helps Talia out*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "And they alrady killed the other Croza who were with us."
<DeathStar> *Chronos looms over Simon* Not exactly
<Xanatos> <Simon> Oh?
<Dias`> <Id> It would be safe to assume the group we talked to number far more than what we encounter
<Xanatos> 6* Bix flies in and lands in a skid across the ground. Steam rising off of him as he stands up with his red outlined armor. He pauses and the red shifts to blue and he smiles and waves at everyone.
<Sara> * Liana moves over to Celes' side
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...so much for my college life..." *siiiiiigh*
<DeathStar> <Chronos> The Croza typically send in false bodies to interact with people. That is those winged beings. Their real bodies are located elsewhere.
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ummm... so what does this all mean then?"
<Xanatos> <Simon> Ah, yes they did mention something to that hinted to that effect when we spoke with them in the spirit world.
<Dias`> <Id> I do recall them mentioning that. I wasn't sure if they were tied in any way that could cause harmful feedback
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm sorry..." *seems genuinely understanding*
<DeathStar> <Chronos> But Kumen and Geyze have become too much of a hot spot for you all and the Croza that are fighting against their brethern that might help you. It is time for you all to leave here for a time and meet with them and learn about them the other Spirits
<DeathStar> *Gale tilts head*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Ummmm..." *moves over to Ellie and holds out the wind relic she pilfered earlier* "Here. I think you might be able to use this."
<DeathStar> *Celes takes Liana's hand*
<Dias`> <Id> And where would that be?
<DeathStar> Song 2: Foreign Land
<Sara> * Liana holds Celes' hand tightly
<DeathStar> *Chronos forms her time staff*
<Sara> <Ellie> Ah... Thanks. *she accepts it, feeling a bit awkward about just being handed something of that level of value -- but she does accept it*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon nods to Liana and pats Celes to stand up and look to Chronos.
<DeathStar> <Chronos> I'll send you to a place where you can possibly learn more about the Croza and what is going on.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Thank you my lady.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "Thank you so much..."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Will it ever be safe for us to come back?"
<DeathStar> <Gale> *seems lost and moves to Ellie* It sounds like you are going far away. I hope you will be safe and come back soon. I will look into the bad people
<Seraphna> Alita> I hope you all take care...
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "...be safe... they're dangerous."
<DeathStar> *Chronos studies Lana, as if that should be obvious* All things end here, do they not? As the Croza said, this place is important?
<Jackieness> <Lana> "...well...I suppose..."
<Sara> <Ellie> I can't promise to be back soon. I can promise I'll do my best to stay safe. What do you think this relic does?
<Dias`> <Id> I look forward to it
<DeathStar> *Gale studies the relic*
<DeathStar> <Gale> It looks like it was made to help control the wind directions. *Gale twirls it and even though Kumen's weather is controlled, the wind changes somewhat*
<Xanatos> 6* Bix walks over to stand by Chronos and waves bye to Gale, smiling.
<Sara> <Ellie> Well... at least now I know.
<Sara> <Ellie> Lady Gale, please stay safe, yourself.
<DeathStar> <Gale> It can also be used a weapon if one really wanted. *she aims at Id and has it blow him hard across the place*
<Sara> <Ellie> You need to *she blinks at Id being sent flying* ... You need to be really careful around the Croza.
<DeathStar> <Gale> I will!
<Dias`> 6Id is blown hard and then rights itself returning back to the others. 1"Please warm me next time you you use me for target practice.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "This book is a strange one."
<Jackieness> <Lana> "And Malfoy! Be careful with Malfoy and his talents."
<Jackieness> <Lana> *looks at Ceil* "I cna help you with it... I kind of have a gift for puzzling this stuff out."
<DeathStar> *Gwen frowns, wondering if her looking into the Croza or being wary of them will lead to her being caught. Chronos rings her time staff and the group appears on a planet with a strange star configuration; all around them is a similar city like on Kumen, indication Croza civilization and even ships in the skies. It seems to have a large starry night*
<Sara> <Ellie> Sorry about that, Id. *she stashes the relic on her person*
<Seraphna> Alita> Well that's the fastest I tink we've ever travelled.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I don't think this is Kumen any more."
<Dias`> 6Id begins scanning the stars to compare it to Kumen's and Geyzes in an attempt to see if anything is familiar.
<DeathStar> *Chronos seems to be gone and Neekito looks around at the strange planet; the gravity seems to be a bit lighter here*
<DeathStar> *Id would find it has some spirit energy, nothing compared to Geyze*
<Xanatos> 6* Simon looks around and then nods to himself before letting out a breath.
<DeathStar> *but it does have Ancient tech*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "ell... what do we do now?"
<Dias`> <Id> It is alright. No harm was done. But if this shell is destroyed, I only have 2 left that are on Simon currently
<DeathStar> Song 3: Closing Moments
<DeathStar> <Celes> I guess we find the Croza group that were open to aiding us
<Xanatos> <Simon> We have to find more Croza. Learn all that we can about them and the spirits.
<Dias`> <Id> None of these stars align with what I've mapped on Geyze. We are far away.
<DeathStar> *Neekito tries to gather spirit energy to form something* The spirit energy here is much weaker than on Geyze. *she flickers a bit, fading a moment*
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Tech
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "So... where are we?"
<Dias`> <Id> Also, please be wary of using what spirit energy you've collected....As Neekito has mentioned it is weaker here.
<Seraphna> Alita> Neekito? You'll have to be careful.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> It seems so
<Dias`> <Id> I can aid Neekito and everyone else but my reserves will take time to recover
<Jackieness> <Lana> *claps her hands together* "Fortunately, I have familiarized myself with the Croza's technology while I was studying with them."
<DeathStar> *Gwen walks forward to the city* <Neekito> I am fine for now.
<Seraphna> Alita> I'll try to put my field up whenever you need rest.
<DeathStar> *Celes leans on Liana* <Celes> It feels like we are starting all over again
<Seraphna> **Talia is under Gwen's shirt warming up**
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "But we know so much more than before."
<DeathStar> <Celes> I suppose that is true
<Dias`> <Id> And I believe that because of Chronos we will get a lot of the answers we've been looking for
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Oh, Id, you should catch me up on what I have missed."
<Dias`> <Id> When we have a moment to relax I will.
<DeathStar> *as they reach the city, surprisingly, strange beings are there waiting for them. They seem to be tall aliens made of spirit energy, but not spirits, and are humanoid but not human shaped like spirits are who mimic human appearance, but look more like pure spirit energy.*
<DeathStar> *Gwen jerks*
<Seraphna> Talia> Pretty!
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "I'm guessing these are the Croza."
<Xanatos> 6* Simon tilts his head, then bows.
<Xanatos> <Simon> Greetings.
<DeathStar> <Being 1> Welcome. We were told you would be coming here. *they seem to be speaking without moving a mouth*
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting. May I scan you?
<DeathStar> <Being 2> You may attempt to
<DeathStar> *Celes just stares at them*
<Jackieness> <Lana> "Be careful you don't get overwhlemed, Id."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> You may blow up
<Sara> <Ellie> Are they talking with sociopathy?
<Sara> <Liana> That's telepathy, Ellie.
<Sara> <Ellie> That's what I said.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> I think they're talking with spirit energy.
<Dias`> <Id> I will be. 6Id does a basic scan of them, quickly stopping it if it's sensors begin to show any signs of danger to it's own systems
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Somehow. *she peers at Ellie* Only you and SImon could be sure
<Sara> * Ellie tilts her head, pondering
<Xanatos> <Simon> Are you the Croza?
<DeathStar> *they seem to be living spirit energy, much like Progenitors are living hyperspace*
<Sara> <Ellie> I guess it's more like they *are* spirit energy
<DeathStar> *they nod to Simon and move to guide them into the city*
<Seraphna> **Alita tilts her head** People seem to forget about me.
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Guess it explains the weird metal suits
<Dias`> <Id> Interesting. They seem to be living Spirit Energy. I have seen this before.
<Alicia> <Ceilidh> "You have?"
<Dias`> <Id> Yes. 6He states simply.
<Xanatos> 6* BIX oooos at them and looks wide eyed a bit as he follows along.
<DeathStar> *Gwen muses on that as they all enter the glorious city*

<DeathStar> Song 9: Angel Team 1
<DeathStar> *Lorelei's team lands on the team where their informant indicated where Amazo was located, and indeed as they begin to decend a large building in the center of the city seems to be one for fighting a gladitors of sorts*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I think we may have finally located our target after all this time
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...this set up feels familiar."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> **grins like a wolf more than a fox** Good.
<Xanatos> <Valen> Cool building at least. Anyone got a ping yet?
<Dias`> <Durt> Took long enough but we might have hit pay dirt finally
<DeathStar> *As they begin to exit the hanger, a legion of Tsivrixsh are there waiting for them with Amazo in a massive Tsivrixsh body, god pinging going off as Valen says that. Rachael twitches at them all* <Rachael> Set up
<Xanatos> <Valen> ....
<DeathStar> *Lorelei twitches*
<DeathStar> <Vesper> ... uh..this is bad, right?
<Seraphna> **Kaelan pulls her sword from darkness** Depends on who decides who's the hunter here.
<Dias`> <Durt> Maybe. 6Durt doesn't make a move as he studies the legion and the massive one.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> And if Amazo wants to play nice or not.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "I'd say yes, we have a ping. Totally do."
<DeathStar> *Loerlei begins to give off dark vibes like Gartareh, twitching at walking them into trap*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Dammit dammit dammit
<Dias`> <Durt> It's fine Lorelei. Let's see what he wants
<DeathStar> *Amazo steps forward* Welcome Angel! And her hunters!
<Alicia> <Celeste> "The big one, right?"
<Seraphna> **Kaelan whips her butt with her tail**
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Darkness is my gig, Momma.
<DeathStar> *Lorelei calms down a bit, taking steady breaths; it seems she still has issues about her failure that one time*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Just let me kill him and you all run...
<Jackieness> <Moira> "I kind of didn't expect him to be this coherent."
<Dias`> <Durt> Seem's we finally meet, Amazo.
<Xanatos> <Valen> Amazo the big strong boy. I like your big fighting area over there.
<DeathStar> *Amazo seems to be unlike his past self, almost regal*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> How many times do we ahve to repeat, we're at your side. And no one stands a chance against us all together... And hey, Amazo... not hiding your smarts this time?
<DeathStar> <Amazo> I am here to make you an offer. I won't have you killed if you all join me in a little game
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Tournament?
<DeathStar> <Rachael> What game, you fucker
<Dias`> <Durt> I'd say you have us at a disadvantage. So, least we can do is hear you out.
<DeathStar> <Amazo> Exactly. And at the end of it, whoever wins it, has a shot at fighting me
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Quick question.
<DeathStar> <Amazo> Of course
<Dias`> <Durt> What are the rules?
<Xanatos> <Valen> ....well good luck fighting him Kaelan. I aint winning shit.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Are you FOR Garterah this time or is my memory that you turned out alright accurate?
<DeathStar> <Amazo> I'm here for the pleasure of the battle.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Ah, so no change then. I guess we can duke it out for fun then?
<DeathStar> <Amazo> So put on a good show. *the group is led inside the tournament*
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Bastard. I'll be sure to eat your heart
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Eee, this can be fun.
<Seraphna> **Kalean pets Rachael**
<Dias`> <Durt> Everyone keep their heads level.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> There's a chance we can not only come out of this unscathed, but we might gain a heavy hitter to take down Gartareh with. Amazo helped us in the old life. That's one thing I remember.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Totally chill, Rach."
<Alicia> <Celeste> "So, wait, he's a good guy?"
<DeathStar> *Rachael mrrrrs*
<Xanatos> 6* Valen puts his arm around Rachael
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> What is a good a guy in life
<DeathStar> *Rachael relaxes with Valen doing that, calming down*
<Seraphna> Kalean> He's kind of nuetral.
<Alicia> <Celeste> "Alright then."
<Dias`> <Durt> Fact he's giving us all a chance means he's just here for entertainment.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> He just really likes to fight, like that idiot Earth president.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> I swear if Dias ever gets like this...
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Hell we can probably promise him a fight with that guy.
<Xanatos> <Valen> I'll be sure to not do anything useful in this tournament.

<Seraphna> Michelle> It can't be this... ooo... Lore's mad.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Hm?
<Seraphna> Michelle> Either Valen got caught doing something bad again or she found a God.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> You can feel that?
<Alicia> <Asha> "Feel what?"
<Xanatos> <Kellin> I wonder if that means they're close?
<DeathStar> <Ako> Lets just focus on finding Kyuun. *she studies newly added people and soon arrive at the newest farm*
<Seraphna> MIchelle> Could be. Though Lore can really reachn out with her Mark.
<DeathStar> <Ako> Lets hope that Ka'paa was not lying
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Michelle is marked by Lore so she has a connection with her that none of us have. I always wondered the distance.
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin nods to Ako as he looks around.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Well to be fair why would anyone think to look at this palce.
<DeathStar> *the farm looks well tended and sparse; the only sign something might be up is a camera aimed not out at the crops by at the farm itself*
<DeathStar> *but
<Seraphna> Michelle> Still find it odd you never got marked, boyo. Though supposedly I'm like the kids somehow.
<Alicia> <Asha> "Why's that odd?"
<DeathStar> <Shion> Someone protecting their farm from thieves?
<Seraphna> Michelle> Kellin's been workin with us since the beginnin.
<Seraphna> Michelle> See how that camera is pointed?
<Seraphna> Michelle> Security isn't for outsiders, it's for the occupant.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Definitely.
<Seraphna> Michelle> We'll want to bust the feed or loop it before we approach.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Hm hm hm.
<DeathStar> *Shion foxholes the camera to point the otherway*
<DeathStar> <Shion> There
<Alicia> <Asha> "Camera... Camera... oh, the eye thing."
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Nice move, I was about to ask for some tactics.
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin glances around and approaches the farm house.
<DeathStar> *as they get up to the door, stepping outside is none other than Kyuun. He spots them* Ah, howdy
<DeathStar> *he nods to them, moving to his crops*
<DeathStar> <Ako> Tsivrixsh for "howdy?
<Seraphna> Michelle> Yep, they brained him.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Uh. Sorry for the trouble, we're looking for someone, actually looks just like you. What's your name?
<DeathStar> <Kyuun> I'm Bo'ksa. *the equivalent of Bob*
<DeathStar> <Shion> He's been brainwashed. We're going to have to untangled his brain.
<Alicia> <Asha> "Can we borrow you for a moment?"
<Seraphna> MIchelle> Sure it's not Kyuun, Emperor of the Tsivrixsh Empire?
<DeathStar> *he pauses just a moment then shakes his head at the name thing, but easily goes to Asha; looks like they made him compliant*
<DeathStar> <Ako> Well, at least he comes along nicely. Now we just need to figure out what to do with him
<Alicia> <Asha> "I thought you knew."
<DeathStar> <Shion> I can work on his brain I guess
<Xanatos> <Kellin> I know we were warned about it, but I was so focused on getting him that I didn't think about how to fix his head.
<Xanatos> <Kellin> We need a psion.
<DeathStar> *Shion pulls him along*
<Seraphna> Michelle> We could probably just say his name a bunch till he wakes up.
<DeathStar> <Shion> This might take a while
<Xanatos> <Kellin> I like that plan, let's do it.
<DeathStar> <Shion> No promises
<Seraphna> Michelle> THese things can supposedly be undone by exposing them to their subconsious identity.

<DeathStar> Location: Unknown Planet
<DeathStar> (Ancient folder)
<DeathStar> Song 5: Erased
<DeathStar> *The team is set up in a massive building with all the accomodites and are given large documents of the Croza Empire and begin to learn all they can about the Croza and fill in the holes of their knowledge*
<DeathStar> *it is clear they will be here for a long time, it is not clear when they will return home*
<Alicia> * Ceilidh seems to be in heaven, not even thinking of being stuck there, at least not most of the time
<Jackieness> <Lana> *goes through the Croza's collected works on the talents of various worlds and their technological documents*
<Seraphna> Alita> So much reading to do...
<DeathStar> *unknown to the team, especially Simon, Chronos spies on him, musing on things. It seems she has been aware of the present the entire time and plays with her staff, a forlorn look on her face about what is to come, perhaps what is to come*
<Seraphna> **Talia seems thoughtful, sitting with Gwen and whispering**
<Alicia> * Ceilidh takes a moment to study the Croza language while she studies... practically everything.
<DeathStar> *Gwen leans in listening*
<Dias`> 6Id studies with Simon, moving at a record pace
<DeathStar> *Celes relaxes and seems to be trying to catch up on various things on Geyze on their documents; it seems geyze has information on all their planets*
<Seraphna> **Alita is totally equipiung Intelligence Hero Perks for this!**
<DeathStar> <Chronos> Time keeps marching on, my Summoni. Does it not. *she rings her staff, vanishing, as the group keeps studying*
