<DeathStar> Date: 10-642.11.6
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> *Erevis eyes the presents piling up from various planets and other rulers due it to being her birthday, making a slight face* Hm. Despite not being the current Empress, they no doubt still hope to remain in my favor
* Alicia has joined #TAW-Session551
<DeathStar> *She sets them to the side*
<Seraphna> **Jaime sets a present down for her too**
<DeathStar> *Ako leans off to the side, just relaxing, having manifested something for Erevis*
<DeathStar> *Erevis tilts her head, taking the present and bows her head, opening it* Thank you, little ones.
<DeathStar> *Ako having made a crystal statue of Erevis*
<Seraphna> **Jaime’s is a statue of Megumi with a cat face** It’s a Lucky Megumi.
<DeathStar> *Isis and Iko move about, setting down food they've made using Katrina's Bar's kitchens for everyone*
<DeathStar> *Megumi adjusts her glasses, studying the statue of herself*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan sits a series of gifts, grunting from the effort of carrying it all.
<Seraphna> **Jaime smiles**
<DeathStar> *Megumi studies Xanatos* Trying to compensate there?
<Xanatos> <Xan> Yes I'm going to win.
<DeathStar> *Megumi thinks, then just opens her lab coat and shows off her tits to Erevis*
<Alicia> * Kyouki watches, amusedly
<DeathStar> <Megumi> Happy Birthday
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...
<Seraphna> Jaime> Momma Meg used a special move.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Damnit!
<DeathStar> *Erevis begins to go through Xanatos gifts one by one*
<DeathStar> *As Isis and Iko set the giant cake down, Athena's stops by, having dropped in while on tour to tackle everyone in a hug* <Erevis> It is nice to have everyone here
<Seraphna> **Thena pounces too**
<Xanatos> 6* It's mostly updated things that she already likes, a new gemmed hair clip, emerald colored kimono with gold printed flowers, and some chopsticks he hand made. In a panic to win he offers out an empty stack of note cards.
<Xanatos> <Xan> I will do whatever you write on the note cards. 1 task per card. (There's 10)
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh my
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin drops off his gift, an intert mote of hyperspace that he's polished down into a smooth stone.
<DeathStar> *Megumi huffs at Xan*
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> I see Dad is trying to really up his game this year
<Seraphna> Jaime> What tactics will they employ I wonder.
<DeathStar> *Erevis pulls Xanatos next to her as she eats her food* Well, with everything calming down *As she says that, the PAX lights blink and systems power up from Adeline unlocking systems* I cannot image anything going wrong today. <Ako> Well that tripped a flag
<Alicia> <Kyouki> "Lets hope that wasn't tempting fate."
<DeathStar> *Erevis blinks innocent* Hm?
* ChadWinters` has joined #TAW-Session551
<Xanatos> <Xan> Superstition. Like saying everything is fine will lead to us jinxing ourselves.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am sure that is quite silly
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Earth
<DeathStar> *Cheryl leans over Lemon's shoulder* What's that? *she points at the map of Mega City*
<DeathStar> *Lemon leans in to stare at the blinking red dot*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It's something Taiga installed.
<Seraphna> Angela> What’s it do?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It seems to be near where John has moved to after his apartment blew up. Let me see what the alarm is about
<DeathStar> *Lemon rolls her chair over to the type of alarms and looks it up* ...hmmmm. "Reality incursion alarm"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We have one of those?
<Xanatos> <Kane> I'm sorry? 6* He sits up now, paying attention.
<Seraphna> Angela> Didn’t we fix that?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Reality incursion alarm?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Taiga installed it on a whim after making a "Taiga Reality Device"
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Just incase someone else could make one.
<Xanatos> <Kane> ... we should call her. It seems someone else did.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl grabs her comm and brings Taiga into a comm call for everyone*
<DeathStar> <Taiga comm> Hello?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Taiga, your reality incursion alarm is going off.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Taiga. *she glances at the pinging alert die down, indicating the person or persons have entered the city*
<DeathStar> <Taiga comm> I see. It would indicate someone from another reality has crossed over here. After the old days when we had a massive multiverse, I was always interested in the subject; with it coming back, I been charting it's growth and tagging each reality I come across with numbers
<DeathStar> <Taiga comm> Give me a moment and let me find what number this might be - or if it's a new one
<Seraphna> **Si off Camera** Ooo it happened!?
<DeathStar> *Taiga poofs in via foxhole, holding a chart and a large cannon type device and with Si, moving over to the sensors. Lemon and Cheryl eyeing her as she types on the console*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> This should have stored the type of reality signature it gave off.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Should we prepare to dispatch to that location?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I think so.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> That's odd.
<DeathStar> *she eyes what the data comes in*
<Seraphna> Si> I’ll get my cape.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Guess I better get ready too.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> So what's odd?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Uh, the signature.
<Xanatos> <Kane> What is it?
<Seraphna> Si> Is it my arch nemesis, Nega-Si?
<DeathStar> <Taiga> It's a signature from the older multiverse. Like, this is a reality that was not destroyed.
<Seraphna> Angela> I guess some of them
<Seraphna> Angela> Could have escaped the darkness.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hm, guess we should go find out who this person is then
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hate to find out it's a Xevil
<Seraphna> Angela> Mmm. Hope not.
<Seraphna> Si> Would a Nega-Xevil be a good guy?
<DeathStar> *Lemon opens her mouth, then closes it, moving to their brand new shuttle*
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Come on
<Xanatos> 6* Kane rises and follows Lemon.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I'll stay here and moitor things
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *Salutes and follows Lemon*
<Seraphna> **Angela follows, Si looks to Taiga**
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Mega City
<DeathStar> *John studies Michiru at their new town house, then Lunar Girl*
<DeathStar> <John> ...
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "What's up?"
<DeathStar> *then reaches over and pokes their chest, then pulls their cheeks* Hmmmmmmmmm
<DeathStar> <Locket> I think Dad has lost it.
<Alicia> <Michiru> "What are you doing?" <Lunar Girl> "Yeah!"
<DeathStar> *John lights up something and smokes it* You 3 are 20 something right? Well, Lunar might be younger, hard to tell with the mask
<DeathStar> *John eyes her*
<Alicia> <Michiru> "What are you suggesting?"
<Seraphna> **Tabetha leans out of another room** I hear squeaks.
<DeathStar> <John> ... *points at a 14 year old looking girl that looks like Michiru*
<DeathStar> <John> ... ... *Then smokes more* That an illion?
<DeathStar> *illusion
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Doppleganger?
<DeathStar> <Locket> *jerks at seeing the new girl*
<Alicia> <Michiru> "... I..." <Lunar Girl> "There can't be another Michiru, can there?"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Why not?
<DeathStar> *John reaches and pokes her cheek and chest*
<DeathStar> <John> Feels real
<Alicia> <Michiru> "...no, that can't be it."
<DeathStar> *at that moment, Lemon and company arrive on scene* Get away from the kid, John - all of you
<Alicia> <Kid> "... did I do something wrong?"
<Seraphna> Tabetha> She’s cute though.
<Seraphna> Angela> Oh no not again.
<Alicia> <Kid> "Have we met?"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl leans out and studies the kid* She looks harmless.
<Seraphna> Angela> Last… next to last time she showed up we had the timeline snap.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pulls out his datapad and starts scanning everyone.
<DeathStar> <John> ... *thinks* Timeline snap?
<Alicia> <Kid> "I hope you're not blaming me for whatever is happening."
<Seraphna> Angela> Not yet anyway. What’s your name?
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "What is happening, anyway?"
<DeathStar> *Kane would get a different reality signature from the girl*
<DeathStar> <Locket> Isn't it clear, she's a Michi
<Seraphna> Angela> Full name.
<DeathStar> <Locket> Michi 3.
<Seraphna> Angela> Huff.
<Alicia> <Kid> "..." *looks over to John for a moment* "I guess it won't change the timeline too much." *looks over at Locket* "Well, that's not bad, anyway."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Do you know how you came to be here?
<DeathStar> *John studies the kid* Hm, yeah this does feel familiar
<DeathStar> *he glances at his Michiru* Infact your name came from an incident similiar to this
<Alicia> <Kid> "I came to ask for help, or at the very least to find out if... no, that wouldn't exist in this time."
<Alicia> <Kid> "Have you been getting strange signals?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Strange signals?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Describe these signals.
<Alicia> * She begins to describe signals from a strange tower that likely does not exist in this reality, but has been transmitting between realities
<DeathStar> <Taiga on comm> I'm not really getting it.
<DeathStar> <Taiga on comm> They have some sort of Tower that is causing problems in their reality?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Perhaps we have nothing to recieve those sorts of signals.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hm. *drums her fingers on the shuttle* I got a question
<Xanatos> <Kane> Where is this tower located in your reality?
<Alicia> <Kid> "We're worried our reality's Xevil might be trying to return."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Oh - there's a charming ame
<Seraphna> Angela> No Evil Tower of Babel Radio here.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You came here - to what, get help?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> For this tower?
<Alicia> * She nods.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And you're John's kid?
<Alicia> <Kid> "I am a McCormick, if that's what you're asking."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That's evasive. I think we need to look into this more before we do anyhing
<DeathStar> *she looks at the others*
<Alicia> <Kid> "I'm just trying not to make him feel old!"
<Seraphna> Angela> If you’re from another reality you can’t break the timeline. We have lots of those.
<DeathStar> *John snorts*
<Xanatos> <Kane> How did you come here?
<Alicia> <Kid> "I came through the tear."
<Xanatos> <Kane> What tear?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm going back to the base to look into this situation. I say we bring the girl with us.
<Seraphna> Angela> Just walked through a reality tear. She’s your kid alright John.
<DeathStar> <John> I'm not too sure. *he muses*
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hm. Let's return to base then.
<Seraphna> Tabetha> Can we keep her?
<DeathStar> *Cheryl motions at the shuttle*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Get on in
<DeathStar> *John glances at his girls* You all want to stay here while we handle this?
<Seraphna> **Angela and Tab get on**
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "I'm curious about the extra Michiru." <Michiru> "She can't be, can she?"
<DeathStar> <John> Well then hop on in
<Alicia> * All three girls hop on into the shuttle
<DeathStar> <Locket> I'll watch the town house from robbers
<Xanatos> 6* Kane hmms to himself and glances around for a moment then pulls a drone from inside his coat and set it up to move around the area and scan for any other traces of that reality signal. Then he steps up onto the shuttle.
<DeathStar> *As the shuttle returns to Cran Manor, they land and step inside*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright kid, this way.
<DeathStar> *she heads downstairs to the base*
<Alicia> <Kid> "I'd ask if I warrant this level of caution, but I guess I understand."
<Seraphna> Angela> Well you could secretly be an Elder God in the form of a Michiru.
<DeathStar> *Taiga is there, having brought up documents* <Taiga> While you were out I got some important info
<Alicia> <Kid> "Wouldn't I be a goddess instead?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Want to hear it?
<Seraphna> Angela> Maybe.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Maybe!?
<Alicia> <Michi, Lunar Girl and the Kid> "Yes!"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> ... Better
<Seraphna> Si> **Eats pocky**
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Long ago, back when you all were younger and more hip, Warren created a ship called the PAX2. How many PAXes have there been? And while out there, the PAX2 had a girl called Michiru appear on it, claiming to be the daughter of Erevis. *an image of Michiru appears, close in age to this kid, but doesn't look exactly like her*
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I believe this girl is not the same girl that appeared
<Seraphna> Angela> They do look different.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Anyway, continuing the story, Michiru's father was an unknown factor and if Erevis did not conceive Michiru, time would destroy itself
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Which it almost did, leading to a time divergence which somehow you all managed to avoid
<Alicia> <Kid> "And for some reason, there are multiple Michirus now?"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> But during that it's written in the documents that Michiru's future became a divergent reality - and that some of the group while there defeated the Emperor Xevil in it
<Seraphna> Angela> Oh right we blasted his ass.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Well you're definitely not a Michiru
<Alicia> <Kid> "I don't know what to feel about that... but that's correct."
<DeathStar> *Taiga turns to the others* IT seems XAnatos was one of those that went to that future, along with Erevis.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Of course they were. 6* He shakes his head slightly.
<Seraphna> Angela> Okay then, we will call her….
<DeathStar> <Lemon> They do get into trouble
<Alicia> <Kid> "Ryoko."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Well, hello Ryoko
<Seraphna> Angela> Rog—- oh that works.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "You were going to say Roger, weren't you?"
<Seraphna> Angela> Yes. Bob and Frank are taken.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I will inform Xanatos and Erevis of Roger's arrival. 6* He steps to the side to call them on the comm.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I'm so glad I didn't let you rename me. Wait, who's Roger?"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl muses* Ignore Angela
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "...Angela?"
<Seraphna> Angela> Mmm? Yeah that’s me.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes. *She motions at her* Angela.
<DeathStar> *After a bit, Erevis steps into the room with Xanatos, gliding in and staring at Ryoko* I have been informed of who you are. You are from *there*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Oh. She just looks like someone else. Sorry."
<Seraphna> Angela> It’s okay I get that a lot.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Honestly can we go a whole year without some reality alterting or reality hopping bullshit?
<DeathStar> *Erevis glances at Kane* That reality was one where Earth had been beaten for 14 years by Xevil and the Earth ruined. *She muses* It was a terrible place with most of those who know dead.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "And that's why it's important to make sure he never returns."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Assuming time moves even a little like it does here, it would be 57 years for them like us
<Xanatos> <Kane> ....wait. THAT reality? Where I came from?
<Seraphna> Angela> Didn’t you come from Jen’s reality?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "That's really why I wasn't sure what to feel."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm, We did not meet a Kane there
<Xanatos> <Kane> ...the story was...apologies, my mistake.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> At least not during that time.
<Xanatos> <Xan> If she is from that time and it's been 57 years. A descendant of that Michiru?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Her granddaughter, yes."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It seems so. What concerns me if that this reality is opening up; what it might mean down the road
<Seraphna> Si> Well…
<Seraphna> **Si looks at Taiga**
<DeathStar> *Taiga thinks* Well, I'll look into it. I take it some of you will go look into it?
<Xanatos> <Xan> I was under the impression that all other versions of reality were condensed down into one. Did something change that or was I just misunderstanding all the nonsense with merging with Geyze and Kumen's reality?
<Seraphna> Angela> Sure. No doubt you’ll want to look into what’s left of that asteroid.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I too was understanding that new realities were made from branching paths or our lives or big decisions. Like perhaps a choice of whether I decided to slaughter you all. *nods as if that makes sense* But it seems there are a few realities that survived. This was a pocket reality that was sealed. Wind's reality might have survived; and Tareh.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Xanatos' pocket reality was another example of this. We certainly need to look into this at any rate, a return of Xevil would be the last thing we need to deal with.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Right. Let us gather people who feel they have a stake in this and gather equipment
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Oh!
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Before you set out!
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I'll make something for everyone.
<DeathStar> *Taiga hurries off*
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...like...food? What's happening?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We shall see
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: Mega City
<DeathStar> *after a few hours and the call has been put out, Kane's drones have located the tear connecting the two realities. Erevis adjusts her armor and nods in thought*
<DeathStar> *the masked V.6 group is there, making sure no civilians get close* <Masked Figure> If you do not return we will follow and provide back up.
<DeathStar> *Taiga holds out watches to everyone going* Wear these. This will bring you back incase the tear closes. I also have my reality device but this will be a second layer of protection. *Erevis takes her's and puts it on*
* ChadWinters` stands there, and Id floating next to him. 1"If this really is a Xevil returning, are you sure you guys have enough firepower to fight him?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "So... Xevil, huh?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Cool, thanks masked person. 6* He takes his watch and puts it on.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hopefully it is just a misunderstanding. If I recall, the tower belonged to him.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> So it might just be some signal of his
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias lands, skidding across the ground towards the group.
<DeathStar> *John puts his watch on*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I hope so too... Xevil caused us all a lot of trouble."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *takes a watch since Xevil matters are her concern* "Its what he excels at. That and megalomania."
<ChadWinters`> Like a call to arms maybe. 6He crosses his arms. "I'll keep things running smoothly on the PAX until you get back Erevis. Plus I'll work with Taiga to come up with some theories on why this is even possible.
<DeathStar> <Taiga> We'll give you 3 days and I'll try to force the watch to bring you abck
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Yeah, last thing we need is older, more dangerous realities popping up.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias takes one, putting it in his pocket. 1"God I hope he's back. I need something new to punch. My arm's getting testy.
<Xanatos> <Xan> It's like a party at the retirement home with all us old fucks going on a mission.
* ChadWinters` glances at Taiga. 1"I think I have a theory, but I'll need you to confirm it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *Grunts, then motions at Ryoko to go*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Speak for yourself, Xan."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Lead the way kid
<Alicia> * Ryoko heads through.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl steps through the tear. The masked figure reaches out to Cheryl, then lowers their hand*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats in after Cheryl as Dias moves in
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Besides, the grandkids are all busy." *heads through*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... *goes through and John slides in*
<DeathStar> *Taiga nods to Chad and heads for the PAX*
<ChadWinters`> We should figure out a way to keep this tear from expanding Taiga. 6He moves with her
<Xanatos> 6* Xan steps in
<DeathStar> <Taiga> Yeah; we can cross the reality with my gun. No need to have a tear.
<Alicia> * Lunar Girl follows readily, Michiru being a little more uncertain
<ChadWinters`> I'm hoping that wasn't a cataylst.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane stands there peering at his scans, a mobile console set up to keep track of the tear's size. He glances at the masked figure once before going back to his monitoring.
<ChadWinters`> Keep us up to date Kane.
<DeathStar> *the masked figure stands guard at the tear, ready to shoots Xevils*
<Xanatos> <Kane> I shall.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Michiverse - Mega City
<DeathStar> *The group steps out into a very different looking Mega City, the buildings and tech being decades behind, but still completely EarthGov in style; airships floating in the sky in patrol and hovercar almost slams into them as they step out into the street*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm walkin' here. *She slams her fists onto the hood*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Careful."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "this is Mega City, Cheryl, not Queens."
<Seraphna> Angela> Ouch.
<DeathStar> *up ahead is a massive statue of something*
<DeathStar> <John> *Walks toward it*
<DeathStar> <John> I sense plot
<Xanatos> 6* Xan looks around as the walk, mostly doing the standard lay of the land sort of thing.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... I sense idiots
<Alicia> * Ryoko follows, Lunar Girl passing her by as she follows John faster
<Seraphna> Angela> Myria teaching you science again?
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias sniffs the air as he follows the group while Id scans a bit, working on connecting to whatever this realities version of the holonet is
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *looks around* "So what year is it on this timeline?"
<DeathStar> *Erevis shakes her head as they go along; as Id connects, he's greeted by tons of famfrit cute videos*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id instantly blocks them.
<DeathStar> *it seems to be 10-642.11.6*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I wonder if I can get presents here as well
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Isn't that cheating?"
<DeathStar> *as they reach the statue - it seems to be a memorial statue - showing all those who died on the PAX2, which seems to be most everyone outside a handful of people like Dias and a few others*
<Seraphna> Angela> Oh right. I’ll give you our gift when we get back.
<Xanatos> <Xan> So we all died? Tragic. Now, you said something about a tower?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I feel like I may need to erase this worlds holo-net./
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Catch me up on world events."
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "You don't like famfrits? Anyway, the tower.. the world history... which to talk about first."
<Seraphna> Angela> Hmm.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Well aren't we here to just knock over a tower?
<DeathStar> *as they talk, there's a quake from something, rumbling the city and the holonet goes crazy from some sort of outside signal. Even Id seems to be affected asi t seems to try to take it over to use to boost the signal*
<DeathStar> <John> That doesn't seem to be normal
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "It's not."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "...let's start with that."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Chad's bot is acting weird.
<ChadWinters`> 6Id's shell start to float irraticaly. 1"...Warning...."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id forcefully tries to disconnect itself form the holo-net
<DeathStar> *As it begins to calm down, Hotaru, Emeralda, and other Next Generation Dragoons rush out to try to help repair any damag done to the city*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "... okay, that's not just famfrit videos."
<Seraphna> Angela> Hey Hota’s here.
<DeathStar> *Erevis points* They might can help us - after they are done. *Emeralda speeding along and repairing the sides of buildings done by the quake*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> ....Something tried to use the Holo-net to boost a signal....and me as an extension since I was accessing it.
<DeathStar> <John> Hm. Holonet stuff is beyond ,e
<DeathStar> *me
<Seraphna> Angela> Chad’s Robot gets Spam.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Did you get enough to trace back to the origin?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Is it something you could track?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Jinx. You owe me a soda, Xan."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id begins to take the signal it recorded, isolates it and begins to look in to it to see exactly what it's trying to broadcast and if it's lucky an origin point.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I am currently trying that.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias seems to be looking around curiously, sniffing a bit as his eyes seem to focus on things in the distance off and on
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "And Dias is being weirder than usual."
<Xanatos> <Xan> I think he can smell supernatural things like werewolves and vampies.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "That's some skill."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> ....Huh?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "...Dias...what has your attention?"
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I smell a burger joint about a mile that way. 6He points. "And I sense some modestly strong people in those directions. 6He points.
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Sensing ki?"
<DeathStar> *Id at this time cannot isolate it, but the GM will let him know if that changes*
<Xanatos> <Xan> Strong vampires in that direction, hm? Do we want to go that way or focus on the tower thing?
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Ki? 6He muses. "Nah....that's not exactly what I use.
<ChadWinters`> *Dias*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> then just looks at Xan* "He didn't say vampires."
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Vampires?" <Ryoko> "Are those common in your world?"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. This may take me sometime to process. It is a very....odd signal.
<DeathStar> *As the civilians cheer the dragoons, they move to go do other stuff. Erevis muses* I confess I do not remember where the Tower is at
<Seraphna> Angela> I suppose we look for big tower shaped objects.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "This palce was blown to hell when we came to fight Xevil last."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Ryoko can just lead us there.
<Xanatos> <Xan> She could, yeah.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Or at the least, to someone who can." *starts off*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> You do not know where the tower is?
<DeathStar> *they follow after her; the group arrive at a fancy government buiding*
<Seraphna> Angela> Fancy.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Last I heard, it was ruins, and no-one told me where it was."
<DeathStar> <John> Tell me Dias isn't President
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias stands there poking at the air as if testing something. 1"What's wrong with me being President?
<DeathStar> <John> Your place is out fighting, not being President
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "... Dias isn't President."
<Xanatos> <Xan> John's not wrong.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Blame Cheryl. She challenged me.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Not for two terms
<Seraphna> Angela> At the time he was sadly a lesser evil.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Can we get on with it?"
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> There wasn't anyone worthy to replace me in my second term.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Well, at least I know you're the same kind of Dias. Anyway, lets so see President Aya."
<Alicia> *go
<Xanatos> <Xan> I mean, Stacey is better than you in every way.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> And no one came to fight me for the title of President so....
<Seraphna> Angela> Aya?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Yes, Aya Winters."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Because I've been training her to succeed me.
<Seraphna> Angela> Awww, Chad would be proud.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Probably not, this isn't his reality.
<Xanatos> <Xan> I feel like Chat is remotely speaking through his little bot.
<Seraphna> Angela> This Chad. Probably blew up on the PAX2.
<Xanatos> (Chad)
<DeathStar> *As they step inside, and walk along the hallways, they soon come across a blonde, busty woman in a secretary outfit* <Woman> Yes?
<Seraphna> Angela> Hmm.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I'm back, and I brought help in investigating and dealing with the tower issue."
<ChadWinters`> <ID> I am only theorizing how he would feel based on what he's taught me of himself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Interesting; when he was here himself - he kept trying to reach out to this Aya
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Due to not knowing him.
<Seraphna> Angela> Clearly Id has been corrupted by Spam.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> That was also a long time ago.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "There are a lot of people we never got to know."
<DeathStar> *The woman studies the group* .... I am not impressed. *she opens the door* Mom, Ryoko brought help
<Seraphna> Angela> Aya managed to acquire kids.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *looks the secretary up and down* "Neither am I."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Acquire? You make it sound like their knick knacks to be purchased.
<Seraphna> Angela> I mean we got you out of a tube.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Come on, we can't all have hyperspace powers."
<DeathStar> *The woman studies him, hmphing and steps inside; sitting in there is an older Aya* <Aya> Ah, Dias, there you are.
<DeathStar> <Aya> You and Ryoko brought help?
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Actually, this is the Dias from the other world."
<DeathStar> *Erevis glances at Xan*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias blinks, still in his presidential suit as he points at himself looking confused
<Seraphna> Angela> Aya, looking good.
<DeathStar> *Aya folds her hands* I see. That would explain his cosplaying outfit
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats about as it just watches and records/studies
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I can only assume he's smarter, having made president on his own world."
<DeathStar> *Aya looks at Angela and her ears, clearly processing something*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I'll have you know, this is fine Carltian silk that I retrieved myself!
<Seraphna> **Angela wiggles them**
<Xanatos> <Xan> I wouldn't assume anything about intelligence.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Boy did this silk worms put up quite the fight too. 6He laughs to himself.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Oh no."
<DeathStar> <Aya> So you all agreed to help I take it? We can't think you enough. We've only truly began to rbuild our foces the past few decades
<DeathStar> *she just decides to move on*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "WE heard there might be Xevil trouble."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Or at the least...Tower trouble.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It is interesting that whatever is the source of this, is using the holo-net and anything connected to it to amplify it's signal
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I am curious to see if I could replicate it myself.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Please don't. Xevil is not a joke."
<DeathStar> <Aya> His Tower, yes. Some people surveying the ruins activatd something inside it and ever since then stuff has been occurring. Signals, strange movement in the tower. Erevis---our Erevis and Zephyr have tried to investigate it but have met with failure. Apparently it's defenses are still going
<Seraphna> Angela> Sounds like we need to do a little bit of turret bashing.
<DeathStar> <Aya> They might could tell you more. *She writes their addresses* Or you could go straight to the tower. *she writes the address of it, ahnding it to Xanatos*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> And no one tried to fox warp in? Or dark puddle jump in? Or 6He makes the sound of a ripple opening. "themselves in?
<Seraphna> Angela> Another version of Zephyr-sis would be neat to meet.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "I'm surprised you didn't outright demolish the place to keep things like this from happening."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Fox warp? Oh. Oh yes. Chii's children that.
<DeathStar> *Tried
<Xanatos> <Xan> I'm not so sure they have Kitsune, 'good' Dark ones, or Weapon X's family tree to do the teleporting things.
<DeathStar> <Aya> It didn't go that great.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Oh nevermind. They have foxes.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Anyone try to punch a hole through space in?
<Xanatos> <Xan> Has anyone died? We need to know how serious this is.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Foxes who apaprently cna't foxhole safely."
<DeathStar> <Aya> As for ripple. I'm sorry, that I have no idea
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. These defense must be quite adept.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl muses on who Chii's children might be*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "How many 'good' Dark Ones do you have?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> *laughs at the ide aof a good dark one*
<Xanatos> <Xan> A few actually.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Whole planet of them.
<DeathStar> <Aya> ..... *studies the group*
<Seraphna> **Angela blinks** So the team never found Billy here.
<DeathStar> <Aya> We killed Billy
<DeathStar> <Aya> You killed Billy
<Seraphna> Angela> Wha…?
<DeathStar> <Aya> To Save him. *points at Xan*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> That's a shame.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "My daughter and granddaughters are Dark Ones."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is true. *She nods*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "You're joking." *looks to Angela* "It... had to be done by that point..."
<Seraphna> Angela> Wait I killed her? As in me?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "The Dark Rune is also not a joke."
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Her name is Andrea. Billy was just a petname."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not sure who stroke the final blow. But the group did Billy of this world in to save Xanatos - she ate his soul.
<Xanatos> <Xan> ....yeah.
<Seraphna> Angela> In our reality Koyuki quelled the Dark Rune.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> It only took her....a very long time to do so.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Well... she did? Wow."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> After it consumed her.
<Seraphna> Angela> Well yeah, she is the Dark Rune now.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *pulls out a family holophoto* "Here."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If I recall, the Dark Rune was destroyed as well after "Andrea" was destroyed
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "If anyone could come back after being consumed by that thing, it'd be her."
<DeathStar> *Aya takes a look at it*
<Seraphna> Angela> So your Rune Blade is incomplete?
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "That is Andrea. Behind ehr are my granddaughter, Rei and Noire."
<Jackieness> s
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias moves over to a spot in the office and taps at the air again.
<Xanatos> <Xan> It's because our Andrea learned to be good that we've made a lot of progress. But don't worry, we still have a very evil and active contigent of Dark Ones we face.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I assure you it is rather fascinating
<DeathStar> <Aya> Well, your world has a lot ... more people than ours. *To Angela* Yes. I know some peope tried to locate the fragments of the Dark Rune but never could
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "The second PAX was never destroyed on their world."
<Seraphna> Angela> Hrm… that could mean something.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I see our group is losing focus again.
<Xanatos> <Xan> It could. Let's go see this Zephyr and then onward to the tower. Thank you for your time, Madam President.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Right, we need to get to this tower."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do fear sometimes Kyouki's Dark RUbe might be too much. But that is a story for another time.
<Seraphna> Angela> **wiggles ears** Tame her with love, Erevis Zhenmei.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Zhenmei?"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl and John step out, John eyeing the addresses for the tower, Erevis, and Zephyr* Lets hioe they can tell us what traps are in there
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am Erevis Zhenmei
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Well, that makes a difference."
<Seraphna> Angela> Yeah she took Megumi’s name after they got hitched.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I guess you don't have an Athena then."
<DeathStar> *it seems Zephyr lives close by to Aya, having raised her*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have two
<Seraphna> Angela> Sure we do.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Oh my."
<DeathStar> *Zephyr's house seems to be a mix of a japanese style home and a military like place for shooting*
<Xanatos> <Xan> Feng shui of this place is all over the place.
<DeathStar> <John> Maybe I should let Dias punch things
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I didn't know you were interested in that."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> ...Hmm? Nah. I'm fine right now. This whole....reality is funky to me right now.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan knocks on the door.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "That's understandable. Adapting to new realities can be tough."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> It's not like that. It's hard to explain,.
<DeathStar> *The door opens and Megumi looks at them, peering at them almost timidly* Mister Dias? Stranger? How may I help you? I swear I do not need more girl scout cookies again, Dias.
<DeathStar> *She shuffles at the door*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> ....You got girl scout cookies?! I want some.
<DeathStar> *she looks bewildered, then goes into her house and brings back a box*
<Xanatos> <Xan> We're here to see Zephyr.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "... yeah, no matter the reality, Dias is the same."
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias grabs the box, rips it open, then pauses as he reaches behind his back and hands a piece of metal. 1"My favorite kind too!
<DeathStar> <Megumi> Oh, of course. *she allows them inside where they find Zephyr watching the holovid*
<DeathStar> *Megumi taking the metal and joining her*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Nah, there was an evil version of me.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "An evil Dias..." <Lunar Girl> "That's horrible."
<ChadWinters`> 6It's what would appear to be a badge of sorts from a back world planet.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Did he have a goatee?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Listen Dias, I already told you, I'm not going with you to see the zoo.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I don't think so.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> ....Girl scout cookies and a trip to the zoo?!
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Ladies and gentlemen, the President of EarthGov."
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias looks at the others pointing at them. 1"Why don't you guys ever offer these things to me? Instead it's always punch this, punch that. Don't touch this, don't touch that."
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I'm amazed their Earth holds up together."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Ryoko brought us from another reality to investigate your tower thing. We came to ask about some more details of what you've found.
<Seraphna> Angela> This is certainly a place you have here Zeph.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Nice ears, Seraphna. *she pauses, then blinks at Xan* <Zephyr> I remember you. Right. *She gets up* So you all didn't bring like super weapons or anything? I Guess not
<DeathStar> *she begins to draw a map of the tower for the group*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I'm the super weapon they brought.
<Seraphna> **Angela blinks a bit** That’s my old callsign…
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "... I'm not even going to argue against that."
<DeathStar> *Megumi dangles keys at Dias*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "So, you *are* Seraphna!"
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> ...What are you doing? Why are you jingling those keys in front of me? I mean they do make an interesting noise.
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Crazy, I know."
<Seraphna> Angela> Well I haven’t used that name since… like decades ago.
<Seraphna> Angela> After I learned my real name I started using it.
<DeathStar> *Erevis muses when when a girl that looks like Zephyr and Megumi walks in* <Megumi> Hello, Athena. *To Dias* Hm *jots a difference*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... hmph. *she eyes the other Athena with a slight twitch*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan look at Athena and then Erevis.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Your Athena is different then?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *hands Xanatos a map* <Erevis> Come, let us see this tower. *Steps out*
<Seraphna> Angela> Huh. Yeah ours is Erevis’ kid.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan uses the map to salute and follows Erevis, looking amused.
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats about like usual, studying and scanning them before moving after the others.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Thanks for the cookies. 6He pops a handful in to his mouth as he moves after the group
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *heads out*
<DeathStar> *using the directions, heading to the center of the city surprising and a bit under some of the sub-way stuff, the ruins of the tower can be found; the way the tower was built, it seems it was built deep into the city structure, leaving levels of it intact*
<Seraphna> Angela> Ahhh, the old reverse tower game.
<DeathStar> <John> Well, here's our structure. *there are some guards standing by*
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Structure-wise speaking. It only makes sense for it to have underground levels.
<DeathStar> <Guard> President Aya wanted us to inform you that backup will be here shortly and that others will be joining you in clearing out the tower.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "And naturally no one thought to dig."
<DeathStar> <John> Should we wait or use the map?
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Oh? And who's that all going to be? 6He looks around
<Xanatos> <Xan> Dias if we throw you up real high how many layers could you pierce on the way back down?
<DeathStar> <Guard> Zephyr and Megumi will join in soon, Erevis and Kyouki, Michiru, Seraphna and Chii, and some others perhaps. *salute*
<Seraphna> Angela> Hey Cheryl, there’s gonna be two of me.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias muses a bit, his hand tapping his chin. 1"Depends on how strong the floors are.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Maybe you'll erase each other if you see each other
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> But I did punch a pathway through 2/3's of a Templar Battleship.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I don't think it works like that."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I also had to hold back so I didn't get everyone sucked out.
<Seraphna> Angela> Gettin’ tsundere on me?
<DeathStar> *Cheryl sticks her head into B1*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Only real problem would be we could destroy important things.
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...well damn he's right. 6* He shakes his head in disbelief and pulls out his pistol, moving into B1 with Cheryl.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Might need to keep that plan around just in case something crazy is down there."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats after them into B1.
<DeathStar> *due to how the tower collapsed long ago and the damage done to it, the area looks completely demolished, with the floor and walls heavily cracked*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I mean that's always Plan A, Cass
<Seraphna> **Angela follows with a huff**
<DeathStar> *it looks unstable in areas*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Maybe it should be Plan B instead."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It feels unsafe here
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I just choose to use Plans 2 through Yellow for the challenge.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Yes... this is Dias who is talking..."
<Seraphna> Angela> Hmmm, I suppose Montana would be overkill here.
<DeathStar> *As they move forward, statues of Emperor Xevil line the walls*
<DeathStar> *many broken*
<DeathStar> <John> Ah, think he has enough?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Something about these makes me want to break more of them."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id projects a light to help everyone see better if it's not lit up
<DeathStar> *The rooms light up*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "I don't kmnow... Xevil might... just might... have been a narcissist."
<Seraphna> Angela> No matter where I move it feels like he’s staring at us like we owe him something.
<DeathStar> *Erevis eyes the map* Oh,the statues will attack us as we continue on
<DeathStar> *At that moment the statues light up and the non broken ones begin to shake, arrows firing out*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Ah, Plan Groucho small John kids look a like.
<Xanatos> <Xan> John, Dias. You're up! 6* He fires at the arrows coming in.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Dias, give them a love tap." *pulls her rail gun*
<Seraphna> **Angela forms a Holy Shield**
<DeathStar> *John picks up Angela and tosses her into the statues*
<DeathStar> <John> I choose oyu
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias drops low then dashes in punching any arrow that he slips by to send them to the ground.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ?!
<Seraphna> Angela> Heyyyy! **forms her Sword to slice through one**
<Alicia> * Ryoko flicks what looks like a hyperspace ribbon, or maybe whip, at arrows, before slicing a statue with it
<DeathStar> *the holy shield smashes a few and then the sword takeso ut another*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias moves to smash the one he gets close to, grabbing onto and twisting to throw part of it towards another one
<DeathStar> *And Dias does another as Ryoko breaks another; John seems to warp and break another*
<DeathStar> *The statues go silent*
<DeathStar> <John> Thanks for the shield
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... *Twitch*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I knew I should've wrecked these statues!"
<Seraphna> Angela> I do what I do. You okay Cherry?
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> That's why you should always enact Plan Groucho if you feel it.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Erevis, maybe read the map ahead so we know what's coming early?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh, should I? The next room is safe, then we go downstairs where there will be areas of the flooring which will give out; the following room will have laser attacks they believe and as they continued a sound kept getting so loud it made their ears bleed and forced them to retreat on B3
<DeathStar> *As they reach B2, Cheryl looks around, patting Angela's head*
<Seraphna> Angela> Fuuu.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Like a really crappy disco show?
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...don't like the sound thing.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Hmmmm. I am glad that I can shut my sound receivers.
<DeathStar> <John> We clearly need to make ourselves deaf
<Seraphna> Angela> YOU don’t?
<Seraphna> Angela> I’m gonna need to wrap these up.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Id, scan the floor for the weak spots."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I will attempt to. 6It floats up a bit higher than the group and begins scanning the floor.
<DeathStar> *Id's scan reveals only the floor with Xevil is safe to walk - sadly the dust and damage has made it hard to see the spelling. It maybe it was always that way*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Does anyone have earplugs?"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Interesting. Who would like to be my test subjecT?
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias holds his thumb up to try and gauge the distance across
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Foolhardy and potentially dangerous. Dias, this is perfect for you."
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I think Chad's robot has some flaws."
<ChadWinters`> <Id> Far from that. I believe I understand the proper way across, but the path is not easy to map.
<Xanatos> <Xan> What happens if we fail?
<ChadWinters`> 6Id begins to list all sorts of horrific ways to die
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Probably fall on to spikes or soemthing."
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...
<Xanatos> <Xan> Not it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Lead me, Id
<Xanatos> <Xan> WAIT it's your birthday. Lead me.
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...damnit.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan steps up, waiting for his instructions.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I will project the possible pathways across. 6Id floats close to the beginning and then projects a holographic laser from the starting point across, with several deviations that lead back to a same spot. It seems it spells out Xevil in a way but there are worn pathways
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "If its holes in the floor... wouldn't someone who can fly be better?"
<Seraphna> Angela> We will remember you fondly Duran.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan sighs and follows the path.
<DeathStar> *Erevis bows to Xanatos* I will revive you right away
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I'll have your back Xan. 6He begins stretching
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "And if you make it across, don't wander too far ahead. Ther emight be lasers."
<DeathStar> <John> Can you spell, by the way?
<DeathStar> <John> Try Xevil, Dias
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> B-Y-E. T-H-E....W-E-I-G-H
<DeathStar> <JOhn> B-I-N-G-O. *Said in a Japanese Engrish way*
<DeathStar> *As Xan makes it across, Erevis and Cheryl follow*
<Xanatos> <Xan> Thank you everyone for your belief in my abilities.
<Alicia> * Lunar Girl follows, along with Ryoko
<ChadWinters`> 6Id maintains a path hologram based on Xan's route
<DeathStar> *the laser room lights up and shoot almost randomly*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *follows along the safe path*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This one looks dangerous
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias darts across, following the path then eyes the laser room, blinking. 1"I thought this room had lasers?
<Seraphna> **Angela muses** Can’t actually be random.
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I am studying for a pattern.
<ChadWinters`> 6Id does attempt to look for a pattern in it.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "So... Chad-Robo is already on it, good."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Hey Angela. Shield up and go destory the emitters.
<DeathStar> <John> Good idea. *lifts her up*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> HEY
<DeathStar> <John> HERE WE GO
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Yeah, why not just hamster ball your self in a shield and go in?
<Seraphna> **Angela eeks putting up her shield**
<DeathStar> *John throws her in*
<DeathStar> *The lasers randomly begin to hit the shields*
<Seraphna> Angela> **Forms her Sword and starts firing back from where each bolt comes**
<DeathStar> *the lasers come down right as ID learns the pattern*
<DeathStar> *the shield also comes down*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "That works better than I thought it would."
<ChadWinters`> 6Id begins to give out directions.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "OK, after the laser room is the sound. What do we have for that?"
<ChadWinters`> <ID> Hmm...seems I wasted my time.
<Seraphna> Angela> I thought this was Dias’ job.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan does the most intense opposite game of his life...by walkign through after Angela clears it.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Nice work!
<DeathStar> <John> Good job Angie
<DeathStar> *slaps her back*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> I don't know why you were swinging at thin air. It was weird.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hmph. *as they reach B3, a painful emitting sound hits their ears, and blood begins to come out as vertigo hits*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats through as Dias walks across eyeing Angela like she's crazy.
<Seraphna> Angela> I’m having Jen give you robot eyes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... ugh.......
<DeathStar> <John> ... I will puke now
<Seraphna> **Angela then immediately hurls and rolls back the way they came crying**
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *waves the others to ehad back and goes to the laser room*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan makes a face, holding his ears. He scans the room with his eye trying to find some sort of thing that' smaking the sound.
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> You can't make me get things I don't want. 6He winces a bit as he waves his head about.
<DeathStar> *it seems to be much further in, probably why the others retreats; Angela rolls into someone who grabs her*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id floats in, reducing it's audio receivers and scans the room to try and find out where the noise is coming from
<Seraphna> Angela> Fuuuuuuuuck! **then multiple words in Tsiv, all of them curses**
<DeathStar> *as they retreat back, hands grab them*
<DeathStar> <John> Godspeed, little ball
<Seraphna> Angela> **blinks looking up, holding her ears flat**
<DeathStar> *Angela looks into --- her own face, standing next to Chii*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias takes several steps back til he's right at the edge of it. 1"Man that static was annoying.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Now we need a plan."
<Seraphna> Seraphna> This one’s attractive. What do you think darling?
<DeathStar> <Chii> I could eat her soul
<Xanatos> <Xan> Let's hope Id can stop the sound.
<Seraphna> Seraphna> It’s a bunny me. She has other uses.
<DeathStar> *Erevis glances back and sees... another Erevis nd Kyouki and Michiru, standing there as a family* <Erevis> .... it seems they are here, Xanatos
<Alicia> * Ryoko waves
<Seraphna> Seraphna> And Cheryl…
<Xanatos> <Xan> Let's not be weird and focus on the task at hand.
<DeathStar> *the other Erevis looks almost normal, as if she hasn't tapped into her hyperspace nature, but it's clearly there still, her arms around Michiru*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> So John, you ever punch hard enough to send an air burst forward?
<Alicia> <Michiru> "You did great."
<DeathStar> <John> If need be. Why, you got a plan?
<Seraphna> **Seraphna is dressed in a tactical suit and cloak, no visible armor**
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "If you plan to do soemthign destructive, be sure to call Id back before you break him."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Well, sound is just loud air isn't it? So what if we punch hard enough to send it back?
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Id?!"
<DeathStar> <John> Can't hurt. *suddenly Id stops responding*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That's can't be good.
<Xanatos> <Xan> That's the bot's name....seems like maybe it was messed up.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *rubs the bridge of her nose* "OK, we need to get in there."
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Yeah, he has a weird taste in names."
<DeathStar> <M. Erevis> I believe it means that something happened to it.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> He fucking calls it Id? ... *Twitch*
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I know... what the hell, right?"
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Guess it's Plan Heavy Air Guitar. 6Dias takes in a deep breath and starts punching infront of him, his speed picking up to the point his fists begin bluring.
<Seraphna> Seraphna> Chad was always a bit of a sociopath.
<Alicia> <Michiru> "I feel a bit disgusted at that choice of name."
<DeathStar> *John begins to follow with Dias to work on the sound*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Alright if those two can get me close enough, I'll shoot the source of the sound
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias adjusts his speed to match with John's
<Xanatos> <Xan> Yeah it was like saying "Hey Zephyr, I know our relationship is tenuous at best so let me just fuck it right up."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Haven't seen her since.
<Seraphna> Angela> She prefers work on Earth now.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *props her gun up and aims. As the two begin to slowly push the air back downstairs, they group arrives where Id is being held by some mechanical creature of Xevil's that looks like him almost, emitting the sound8
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "I think Dias just proved himself the smartest moron."
<DeathStar> *Dias and John's air punches barely keeping the sound back now*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Is that a screeching Xevil? <Both Erevis> Yes.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan shift slightly to the side to get a good aim, then eye lasers at the xevil bot.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias has begun sweating pretty heavily at this point.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *aims at the head of the creature and fires a rail gun shot*
<DeathStar> *Zephyr aims as well, charging up andfiring with CAssandra and Xan, their shots ---- *rolling*
<DeathStar> *Blowing it up*
<DeathStar> *And freeing Id*
<ChadWinters`> 6Id hits the ground, rolling a bit before it flickers and lights up.
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "So, is the robot intact?"
<Xanatos> 6* Xan winces, the area around his eye scorched now, but healing.
<Xanatos> <Xan> I think I'll give you credit Dias, that was a great idea.
<Alicia> <Lunar Girl> "Looks like it." <Ryoko> "Xan, are you alright?"
<DeathStar> <Chii> .... *peers about as the room leading back to B2 begins to shake, the sound and shots having damaged it even more - it's clearly about to collapse, leading everyone 1 of 2 choics, retreat back the way they came up B2, or go further into B3*
<DeathStar> <John> *takes a deep breath and rushes further in*
<Xanatos> <Xan> Ah yeah it does this when I use it.
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias stops now, taking in controlled deep breaths. 1"Nothing beats Plan Heavy Air Guitar...."
<Xanatos> 6* Xan kneels by the Id bot and pokes at it.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "And there goes John."
<Seraphna> **Seraphna lifts Chii and rushes in, Angela runs with them helping Cheryl**
<Alicia> * Lunar Girl follows John. "I can teleport, don't worry!"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> ....Durran. It is good to see you. 6It lifts up, flickering a bit."
<DeathStar> *Cheryl> .... *is pulled further in as the room shakes* Away we gooooo
<Alicia> <Ryoko> "Good." *follows too*
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> "Remember, we have no intel on what is up ahead."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> PLAN RECKLESS RUSH! 6Dias rushes in after John
<DeathStar> *The other Erevis steps back up as stuff begins to come down*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan grasps the Id bot in his hand and moves further in with his Erevis.
<DeathStar> *retreating to safety*
<Alicia> * Michiru sticks with her, trusting in Ryoko's abilities, and John's protection. "Don't get stuck!"
<ChadWinters`> <Id> I got to close I fear, the sound waves caused my systems to stall.
<Jackieness> <Cassandra> *heads in with her team*
<DeathStar> **Erevis looks back as the stuff comes down. Zephyr shining a light* <Zephyr> Well. I guess this means we find what is down here after all
<DeathStar> -TBC-
* Jackieness has quit IRC
