The Duality Wars: The Alien Wars 6

Session 59

<DeathStar> Early January, 10-636
<DeathStar> 6* Around 5 months have passed, and two more storms have occurred, with more destruction having occurred, still in a few block radius. Samson's memories appeared to be jumbled, though the looks to Ben are uncanny. Taiga continues to be a little twitchy about information
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki has been working, making a small temp base connected to the Striker Station, working to see if they can find the other world. Having a ton of the crew, who have adapted into living on the planet, and gotten jobs, as samples. So far there has been no sign of it, except briefly in storms
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki leans back in her seat, hmmming, tapping her pencil as she works on her terminal
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor sits at the computers, working on them, His Thing off-mission.
<Kaelan> * Cookie sits nearby, looking at stuff too.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We know from what we've seen there must be at least three locations. One is like our world, apparantly
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Then these two planets with really weird things *she eyes the mushroom, and the strange tech from the other*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Geyze and Kumen. *Taiga's ears twitch at that*
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor hmmms, looking the tech over
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yet no way to detect them and Samson isn't being much help
<DeathStar> 6* Godiva walks into the tiny base, curious, all dressed up like the Empress' daughter might be
<Sara> * Kaori plays a handheld game, listening
<Kaelan> Cookie> "He blocks me constantly too."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I think my next plan is to take our devices into a storm
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Lady Iva, this place is off-limits..!
<DeathStar> 6* Samson rests in his room. Ben studies the room from a distance, arms crossed
<Kaelan> Si> "Fuuu.... that's a wild plan! I like it."
<DeathStar> <Godiva> Why? Our money funds the place. I wish to study their progress. 6* She walks around, peering at Kaori's handheld
<Nyaomi> * Ben is tackled by Rin
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga exits the mini base, walking along, her thoughts all over the place
<Jackieness> <Airym> *walks in* "The most expedient plan would be to fire small probes into the storm system."
<DeathStar> 6* Ben falls over
<Nyaomi> <Rin> Unnnncle Beeeen you're here!
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I disagree. *she tells Airym* The storm is violent and electronics break easily in it. We might need to do onsite repairs
<DeathStar> <Ben> Yes I am.
<Nyaomi> <Rin> Come to hang out with the cool kids?
<DeathStar> <Ben> No, I am watching this hallway in the PAX.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The probes will be disposable."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> He's not cool enough to hang with the cool kids. 6*He jokes
<Jackieness> <Airym> "You, however, are not."
<Kaelan> Cookie> "It's true, we lack replacement Yukis. I checked."
<Sara> * Kaori was apparently playing a fighting game, but it's paused as she looks up, listening
<Nyaomi> <Rin> Awww.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I'll be fine. But if the probes are destroyed before we get anything, it could be months before we get another try
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I can make a suit of protection, along with my own natural abilities. Plus, I will have Kitty on standby with a ripple
<Kaelan> * Cookie pouts. "I'll have to watch you then. I can see lightning and stuff coming after all."
<Kaelan> Si> "Fire doesn't bug me you know."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "If that is your decision."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> It's true. One time her hair was on fire for an hour before she notices.
<kalonZombie> *noticed
<Kaelan> Si> "I was going for flaming red head?"
<Nyaomi> <Jem> ... Ah, Si'Chii, she was the on I forgot.
<kalonZombie> <Gor> <That's a bad joke and you know it.>
<Kaelan> Si> <Oh hush you know I'm witty and cool.>
<DeathStar> <Godiva> *Stares at them all*
<DeathStar> <Godiva> You are the heroes of legend? Well, the children of legend
<Sara> <Kaori> I'm not a hero. I think.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki begins to formulate a plan, working on the suit needed and materials
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga pulls out her paperwork, studying it at the house silently, leaned back
<Kaelan> SI> "Legend?"
<Kaelan> * Cookie helps.
<DeathStar> 6* Ben pats Rin, before heading back to his room on another level
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I guess all we can do now is wait for another storm. I want to make sure we have Samson when it does hit, see if it jogs any memories
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Unfortunately, I lack the data to predict when and where the next storm will be."
<Nyaomi> <Jem> I guess that's one way to refer to us.
<DeathStar> <Godiva> *She hugs her arm, pressing against her* Were you the leader, Jem?
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Ha ha ha ha ha. No.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Well, everytime a storm happens, we will get more information, and soon can predict them
<Kaelan> SI> "I'm sure we'll know when it happens. Big booms and all."
<Nyaomi> <Jem> Technically that was Taiga. But she defers to Kitty a lot.
<DeathStar> <Godiva> But I bet you were important
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki smiles at Kodiva
<Nyaomi> <Jem> I don't know about that...
<DeathStar> *Koari even
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Yes."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> If you want to go out into the storm with me you can
<Nyaomi> <Rin> No fair, sis! I want to run around in a storm!
<Sara> <Kaori> I don't have anything better to do. If I can help I'd be happy to.
<Kaelan> Cookie> "I gotta keep an eye into the future for you."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You...want to go into a storm...?
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes Rin
<kalonZombie> <Gor> That's... highly dangerous.
<Nyaomi> <Rin> Sounds like a challenge! I'm there!
<Kaelan> Cookie> "Little Rin is precocious."
<Nyaomi> <Rin> Who're you calling little?!
<Nyaomi> * Rin shadowboxes at Cookie
<Kaelan> Cookie> "You're Little Rin, Grandma is Grandma Rin."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Okay, lets get ready
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<Kaelan> * Cookie tilts her head, curious at how differnt Rin is lately.
<DeathStar> 6* A week later, a storm begins to build
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki eyes it, then begins to wiggle into one of the many suits she build
<DeathStar> *built
<DeathStar> 6* Then grabs her scanning equipment, wrapt up in several layers of protection. She taps her comm. "If Kitty is unavailable, we need a rippler on standby."
<Chainy> 6*Kitty is in suit and blinks
<DeathStar> 6* Samson gets into a suit as well
<Chainy> <Kitty> behind you Yuki
<Sara> * Kaori puts a suit on with some difficulty
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Okay, stay here by the ship to pull us out if our suits break.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki tells Kitty
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor gets in a suit as well
<Chainy> 6*Kitty nods
<Chainy> <Kitty> I'll be ready
<DeathStar> 6* Ben leans by beam, watching Samson
<Nyaomi> <Rin> I wanna go, I wanna go, I wanna go...
<Chainy> 6*she sips some tea she has on standby
<Nyaomi> * Rin huffs at Yuki
<Kaelan> * Cookie in a suit stretches.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I shall monitor your progress remotely and receive any data that you transmit."
<Chainy> 6*Kitty uses Rin as a sitting stool
<Nyaomi> * Rin aghs and flails. "A-Ah, g-get your fat ass offa me, auntie!
<DeathStar> <Yuki> If you get your permission from your parents
<Chainy> <Kitty> not if youre going to call me a fat ass
<Chainy> 6*Kitty eyes her dangerously
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki steps out into the storm
<Sara> * Kaori steps out behind her, cautiously
<DeathStar> 6* Samson follows, the wild, worse than hurricane winds blowing and rain coming down. Yuki takes tentative steps, rising up in the air a few times with her device
<Nyaomi> * Rin blinks and pales at Kitty, then spam-texts MiyuKaSis saying she wants to run into a temporal anomaly storm
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor walks out carefully as well
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga watches them, tossing her latest game system, musing
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> What's wrong, tiger. You've looked more bothered than usual.
<Kaelan> * Cookie walks carefully, using her senses as a form of danger sense.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *maintains a lock on Yuki*
<Chainy> 6*Momma Miyu vetos it "Your momma Isis says your ass is grounded to earth kitten"
<DeathStar> <Taiga> This entire thing. I know we make video games together, you making the plot and me the design aspect. *since Ouka is the writer* I jotted down some ideas ahead of time for our next game, and named it Dueling Worlds
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki struggles through the winds,m getting blown back. Samson holds her with his hand, strong like Ben. Yuki eyes the readings, trying to move toward a set of buildings
<DeathStar> 6* Vodka sits drinking tea, oddly, and gives Rin a cookie
<Nyaomi> * Rin furiously taps back. "No fair, Yuki's getting to go into it! I just got sit on by aunt kitty!"
<Kaelan> * Cookie does her best to move forward, weaving against the winds.
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> Well, yes.
<Kaelan> * Michelle sits near Vodka, watching as well.
<DeathStar> 6* they approach the presidential building, half of it gone, Cheryl working today
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor trudges forward, following Yuki carefully
<Sara> * Kaori cringes as she tries to follow behind them, finding it difficult but not as difficult as some video games
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki eyes her readings and kneels, tapping on it as areas flood around them
<Sara> * Kaori follows her lead
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki hands Ouka the datapad with the game and prelimanary ideas
<Nyaomi> * Ouka glances over it, fixing her glasses
<DeathStar> 6* Samson kneels as the half presidental building before them stands
<Chainy> 6*Momma Miyu threatens to put momma Isis and Momma Hi on the phone
<Kaelan> * Cookie takes a knee too, wishing she had her mom's TK to help.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Getting some data. 6* Samson eyes everything with his shades, vaguely looking around. Their suits begin to crack due to the torrents of wind, a tear forming in Cookie's
<Sara> * Kaori whimpers, starting to have second thoughts as she glances around... but quickly pushing those thoughts away
<Kaelan> * Cookie stops her breathing and grunts. "Suit's torn."
<DeathStar> 6* A person falls from the sky and crashes into the ground, neck broken, wearing a strange Imperial outfit
<Kaelan> COokie> "And it's raining men?"
<Kaelan> * Cookie tries to cover the tear.
<DeathStar> 6* Kaori's outfit begins to get weathered. cookie suddenly begins to look see through
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Well... Momma M might like that idea...
<Kaelan> Cookie> "Wh-WHat's happening...?"
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Cookie?!
<Nyaomi> <Ouka> ... Yes, I understand the uneasiness but..
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Kitty. Get us out of here---I think I got it. We're loosing Cookie
<DeathStar> <Taiga> I don't know if that Samson is Ben and thus knew to say those names or not
<Chainy> 6*Kitty ripples them out
<DeathStar> <Taiga> As place holders I used some dead people we knew long ago too
<Kaelan> Cookie> "I don't have a guitar on me!"
<Nyaomi> * Rin apologises profusely to Miyuki
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki crashes onto the floor of their mini base
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki pulls her helmet off
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor likely lands on his ass
<Kaelan> * Cookie looks down at herself after crashing down. "Johnny Be Good?"
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Ow! Jeez, Kitty, is this because I called you Diblin when we were 14?
<Sara> * Kaori lands head-first with a thud, though surprisingly intact
<DeathStar> 6* Cookie looks fine
<Chainy> <Kitty> yes
<Kaelan> Cookie> "See? Even just saying it helps."
<kalonZombie> <Gor> ...Touche.
<Chainy> <Kitty>also youre welcome
<Nyaomi> * Rin pales at Kitty's response to Gor. Man she remembers insults. "Ah-haha.. I'm s-sorry I offended you, aunt Kitty... ahaha.."
<Sara> * Kaori gets herself up a bit and takes off her helmet
<Chainy> 6*Kitty rises to help people up
<Kaelan> * Si walks over and checks on Gor.
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor appreciates the help... and accidentally brushes her butt as he's lifted
<Chainy> 6*Kitty makes a face
<Chainy> <Kitty> Fresh
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Accident, I swear.
<Sara> <Kaori> I'm okay. Mostly.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki stands up and shakes like a fox
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Thanks, Kitty
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *she plugs in the data to let it run*
<Chainy> 6*Kitty picks up Yuki and cuddles her post plug in
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki squeaks, tail wagging, as the data comes up
<Kaelan> * Cookie works herself out of the suit and sighs.
<Kaelan> Si> <How was it?>
<DeathStar> 6* It shows a weakening in their walls of their reality - and on the same plane, occupying the same space, a mirror universe reality exists
<DeathStar> 6* And for some reason it's bleeding through, taking over it, as if it were the real thing
<kalonZombie> <Gor> <Very soft. And bouncy.>
<kalonZombie> <Gor> That's... very not good.
<DeathStar> 6* Samson rubs his arms, eyeing it.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> How did that even form
<Kaelan> Cookie> "But... there shouldn't be any more realities, right? SO how did this one happen?"
<Sara> <Kaori> It's like bad reception when watching videos... *she notes seriously*
<Sara> <Kaori> You know, when another channel kind of ghosts through?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It has to be the blackhole. It led to our own plane, and made a mirror universe
<DeathStar> <Yuki> And the remnants crystals are making it the prime reality
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Even broken as they are
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki seems well versed, since taking over
<Sara> <Kaori> So we just need to go on a quest to find the crystals. It'll be just like Last Legend.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> That, or two universes can't exist on the same plane
<DeathStar> <Yuki> And something has happened to make them bleed through
<DeathStar> <Yuki> And we have to seal the walls
<DeathStar> <Vodka> So it has always been, and something happened to punch a hole
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yeah. It could be every reality has a mirror side to it. And we did something to punch a hole in ours
<Kaelan> <Michelle> Or someone.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Again, I am guessing the black hole event
<Sara> <Kaori> Well, yeah. Messing with black holes tends to do things.
<Kaelan> <Cookie> *points at the uniform stuff they may have got* Or extradimensional nazis?"
<DeathStar> <Samson> *leans against the wall* I remember a little more. I was on a ship when I came here, going to investigate our Homeworld we had to run away from due to an event that made us leave it
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki studies him
<Sara> <Kaori> A ship to investigate a Homeworld, huh...
<Kaelan> Cookie> "What was your homeworld?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> A ship...interesting. Judging by the results of these scans, there was a lot of computer information. We might could get there physically eventually... but...
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki sits, musing
<DeathStar> <Samson> It was called Homeworld
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga watches a monitor, having hacked into Yuki's base, watching it from her room
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Rather unimaginitive.
<DeathStar> <Samson> It was abandoned 200 years ago. The name was lost
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *she whispers with Airym*
<Sara> <Kaori> Maybe you could name it, then. You could name it Samson.
<Sara> <Kaori> And be famous forever.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *she turns to Kitty* We should gather everyone. Unlike the past, we don't have reality powers or ships like we use to. Going over there won't be easy
<Sara> * Kaori seems serious about what may have sounded like a joke
<Kaelan> Cookie> "200 years doesn't seem like too long."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> PHysically, it could take a group a long time, years maybe, to figure it out
<Sara> <Kaori> Do we even -have- years?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> And unless we want to get lucky in a storm to fall through
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We might not have it.
<DeathStar> 6* She nods to Kaori
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But based on the readings, it almost looks like we might could plug into the mirror universe. Due to the 0010110s that appear now and again
<Kaelan> * Michelle leans against Vodka and listens for a bit now.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It may be more dangerous, but I think in six months I could make capsules that could do that while another group finds out how to do it physically
<Kaelan> Cookie> "Still seems like Mom created a runaway holodeck sim."
<Sara> <Kaori> At least you're confident.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I still possess the software for Centerpoint. I could use it as a starting point for interpreting this dimensional data."
<DeathStar> <Samson> *doesn't bother explaining why peple forgot over 200 yearS*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *nods to Airym* Lets go gather everyone
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga turns the monitor off, grimacing. "000100s, hm."
<DeathStar> 6* Taiga rises and goes to the meeting
<DeathStar> -END-
<Sara> <Kaori> No, 0010110s.
