<DeathStar> 4.3.5991 *close to midnight*
<DeathStar> <Narrator> They say that things come to an end with big events. That is true
<DeathStar> <Narrator> But the chain reactions that begin them can be small.
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Taking Ymir from a party
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Going to a castle under a guise. Sitting down with world leaders to talk about war plans
<DeathStar> <Narrator> And then....Two people in the middle of the night approaching a Corporate HQ
<DeathStar> 6* Cam'dee walks down the middle of the street on the top level, the darkness up there true darkness, the sun having set. The man with tech on his head and face, wearing a trench coat, walking along. They get as close to the Macross HQ as they can, needing a bead on Macross to get his spirit name
<Stretch> ((Terran Maxwell :P))
<DeathStar> <Cam'dee> What are the chances we will even see him? <Man> We might. He's been being strange lately
<DeathStar> (Yeah, I know, I used Macross as the Corporate name)
* Retrieving #Dual-Session100 modes...
<DeathStar> <Man> Yesterday he released a bunch of mods and stuff for Aurits and fauna that fixed their heat problem down below. But if they want more they have to come to him. Now he's the guy's the most popular fucker on Kumen
<DeathStar> 6* They two stop, facing the building. There's already a huge crowd gathered
<DeathStar> <Cam'dee> I don't see him. <Man> ... There he is. On the balcony. <Cam'dee> Okay. I see his name. <Man> Tell it to me.
<DeathStar> 6* The two begin the process
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Presidental Building
<DeathStar> <Narrator> The Cypher team had come to me, to learn more about the man with Cam'dee. Oh, little one. Yuki. This was all my fault in a way. I began the ball rolling
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar sits, going through Sen's computer network, doing as was suggested to try to locate the man
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher peers out over the night sky of the top level while Asarar works, her equipment on the floor beside her
<Stretch> 6*Jelly stands behind Asarar, looking over her shoulder while trying to stay out of the way; not every day a programmer gets to look at CoreSec Secure Servers *
<Seraphna> * Luci stretches, peering about since computer stuff is all another language to her.
<DeathStar> 6* Sen, in her maid outfit, her belly a bit bigger these days, serves tea and cookies
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Found him. *she leans back* He was in the system after all
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What have we got?"
<Sara> * Chelsea sits by Cypher, peering out with her
<Stretch> 6*Jelly grins since it was his idea*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe places a kitty latte by Asarar, taking back a empty mug she finished before
<Stretch> Jelly> "Now we should cross check it against quadrant access lists, it'll give us an idea of where he is..."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> He's an ex-Runner.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What else?"
<Sara> * Chelsea peers over her shoulder, listening
<Sara> * Over her own shoulder, back at the others, rather
<Seraphna> Luci> "So... why is he ex?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> He was once a Seeker, but apparantly he quit working with Corporations after the Tech Wars.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> He's been off the radar since.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> In and out of jails
<Sara> <Chelsea> A Seeker, huh.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Anything in there about what happened to him during the Tech Wars?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly cants his head to the side, thinking for a second* "What about running his face through the databases to see if he made a mistake and was seen by a Camera Checkpoint? Or what about trying to see if Cam has gone anywhere?"
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar reads more. "It lists that he had a family around that time and they are deceased now. You can put two and two together."
<DeathStar> Club - 1. Failed Strike
<DeathStar> 6* There's a loud boom far away
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher, by the window, jerks, nearly going over the railing
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Details on what..." *looks towasrd the nearest window*
<Sara> <Chelsea> A-Aah! Cy! *she reaches to help her*
<DeathStar> 6* Sen puts the tray down and moves over to a computer center that appears after a wall goes up. The President of Kumen comes down the stairs, her mask already on
<Stretch> 6*Jelly flinches and grabs at the back of Asarar's chair*
<Seraphna> * Luci hops up and blinks. "Wha...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher grabs onto Chelsea to steady herself
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe's ears flick as he moves to see
<DeathStar> 6* She peers out, eyeing Macross HQ flickering with power
<DeathStar> 6* Then dying down
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Something happened at Macross
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Explosions aren't this guy's MO... so what's the sitrep?"
<DeathStar> 6* Sen brings up her terminals
<DeathStar> <President> We are finding out now. Hold on. *She tells them*
<Seraphna> * Luci groans.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Maybe we're a bit too late in our search?"
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> or this is a confirmation...
<Stretch> 6*Jelly glances at Asarar's computer terminal a moment before moving towards the one Sen opened up, scanning over what's there*
<DeathStar> 6* They bring up cameras on site, showing Cam'dee and their target at the location. They are behind a crowd, and Macross appears to be on the balcony. They clearly are trying to do their death attack when the building glows with power, and the man goes flying back, and people in the crowd fall over. Cam'dee screams and goes down
<DeathStar> 6* A machine flies down and grabs her, as Terran Maxwell, the Macross leader, walks back in
<Sara> <Chelsea> ......
<DeathStar> 6* Song End
<Stretch> Jelly> "I really don't like that guy right now..."
<DeathStar> <Sen> Macross HQ is sending a transmission to all the news sites
<Seraphna> Luci> "So... yeah, she did what we thought she might do and Terran was waiting for her."
<DeathStar> <Sen> With how popular he has become lately, they are patching him through with no questions
<Stretch> Jelly> "Question is...how did he rebound it against Ex-Seeker?"
<Seraphna> Luci> "Let me guess, grabbing the credit for catching the serial killer? Or implicating you because you made Cam'dee."
<DeathStar> 6* The President nods to put it on. Maxwell appears, with Cam'dee slumped in the robot's arms
<Seraphna> Luci> "Macross specializes in Spirit Tech, he clearly figured out what was happening sooner than we did and planned accordingly."
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> As you can see, my life was just threatened a moment ago by the killer who has been attacking the people of our fair city. *as he talks, Sen checks the readings on what happened*
<Stretch> Jelly> "He won't blame the President...she's a Spirit, this is all he needs to turn the city against Geyze and push the War forward..."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "She's a Kumen-made spirit that was plugged into the Aquarius."
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> This is our killer. This is a spirit created by the President of Kumen. The person who not only who is suppose to be protecting us, but holding us back in votes when we wanted retribution
<Sara> * Chelsea peers at Kira
<Jackieness> <Kira> "He's using it to launch a coup."
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> I say it is time that a new president was put in charge. It is time for a change. *he spreads his hands* Democratically of course.
<Stretch> Jelly> "Huh...I was expecting him to play off of popular stupidity and just say that she was a Spirit, let public opinion push the war forward."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> With how he's been treating Fauna and Aurits on the streets with Ymir's cure
<Kemonohime> <Ylva> He's doing both.
<Seraphna> Luci> "...I don't like where this is going."
<Kemonohime> <Ylva> He's gaining the popular vote to ascend position-- /and/ moving to start the war.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "The war was never the goal, it was just a politicla ploy to set this up."
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> I ask that you handle this responsbility, of course. Do not take action into your own hands. *he muses* Of course the government is in her hands, but I am sure the people's voices will prevail. Do not do anything untoward and let justice prevail
<Sara> * Chelsea looks at Jelly. "One has to worry about the war at home first..." she notes dryly to him.
<DeathStar> *He ends his transmission*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> He basically sparked a mob to come here.
<Kemonohime> <Ylva> And absolved himself of the implication of inciting it.
<Kemonohime> <Ylva> That despicable being... why is he this way, why would he go so far?
<DeathStar> <Sen> I found out how he rebounded it. He always had a rea---shard in his building that Yuki wanted you to take. <Asarar> Yes, but we couldn't go there yet
<Stretch> 6*Jelly gulps and looks over towards Sen and the Pres.* "Uhm...you guys got security barriers right?"
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Motivation doesn't matter. We need to deal with this situation."
<DeathStar> <Sen> Apparantly he attained another from another Corporation. He has two acting together to make a barrier. Cam'dee's power reflected in the face of it
<GhostChain> <Wolfe>we might want to consider escaping while we still have the time to
<DeathStar> <Sen> And likely killed the man she was with
<DeathStar> <President> We can hold out a while, but we can't use lethal force against the people.
<DeathStar> Club 2 - Little Time for Plans
<Seraphna> * LUci sighs. "Well... we know now that we have to take down the Macross HQ."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Agreed. But if we leave here, we are leaving you two unprotected
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe sighs
<DeathStar> <Sen> That is true, but you cannot let Maxwell go unpunished. Especially with two shards
<DeathStar> <Sen> We will hold out as long as we can
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> a brute like me can really only hurt people so I'll see about some baracades
<Stretch> Jelly> "Well, I was preparing a ton of little toys in the event that we went there...guess I get to use them?"
<DeathStar> *The President looks at Wolfe* They will need your strength.
<DeathStar> <President> Who knows what firepower Macross will have.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Start locking down the connections between the quads, limit the movements of the insurgents. I recommend using emergency measures to start transferring control of Macross assets to other corporations. That will help sway them."
<DeathStar> <President> Plus you know what those shards can do
<DeathStar> 6* Sen nods and begins to type
* kalonZombie has joined #Dual-Session100
<DeathStar> <Sen> You all need to go now before you get caught in the crowd
<Sara> * Chelsea peers around at the others but then sighs and nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar nods and moves to take the side exit. Cypher nods her head and moves to follow
<Seraphna> * Luci grabs her gear and stretches. "Alright then." *She follows Asarar.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe sighs and nods
<Stretch> 6*Jelly glances at Sen and the Pres. before following after, adjusting his pack as he goes*
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> fine
<Jackieness> <Kira> *moves out with Asarar and the others*
<Kemonohime> <Ylva> Leave it to me.
<Sara> * Chelsea moves out with the others as well
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe goes after Asarar
<DeathStar> <Asarar> All of you, keep moving along this road to Macross. I will catch up. I need to go back to the Club
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I have to pick up something
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher eyes Asarar
<Kemonohime> * Ylva makes a call to Twilight to fill her in on the other side of events she hasn't seen.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Are you sure?"
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> that sounds like a fabulous way of getting nabbed
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Splitting up never ends well."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> They have a shard barrier. I doubt we'll get in without the item I'll pick up
<Sara> <Chelsea> Asarar... Stay safe.
<DeathStar> 6* Twilight chats with Ylva about things, promising to help out where she can by getting forces
<DeathStar> End Song
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 4.4.5991
<DeathStar> Location: The Shuttle Port
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Back on Geyze, war was nearly ready to break out
<DeathStar> <NArrator> You had the Amazons, the Ents, the Summoni, and the Daemon, along with the Academy
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Facing the Legion, the Naturalists, and the Magi
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Backed by the Hapians
<DeathStar> <Narrator> Sylph and Salamander was protecting the shuttles, and with the Academy was Undine, Plas, Volt, and Celsius. Right now both sides were facing each other, as midnight was befalling the field, making it hard to see.
<DeathStar> <Narrator> But all it would take was one wrong move
<DeathStar> 6* Shion overlooked the field with her mother
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Salamander why...
<DeathStar> 6* Qui, Neophyx, Kalam, and Gi, all have split off with their armies, surrounding the space port
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki exhales softly
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> my heart isnt at ease...
<Seraphna> * Alita sighs, peering over the field quietly, she gathered up medical supplies.
<DeathStar> <Salamander> My people need me to protect the space port
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki claps her hands together, though it might mean little given their location, but she prays to her gods
<DeathStar> <Jules> Back off from this place
<DeathStar> *He orders Miyuki and the others*
<DeathStar> <Jules> This is Holy Order territory
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia looks over at him, blinking
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> But that means we're at odds... this is going to start a war between the worlds-- And that means further destruction for the spirits..!
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki flicks an eye open, mid prayer
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Who says this place will do that? And you are the aggressors. *Kasha. at this point, is the only one from the other side back, since Eve warped her ahead in the golden armor*
<GhostChain> 6*she closes her eye and finishes as her tails spread and rattle
<DeathStar> 6* Volt plays with his lightning in his hands, ready to go.
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> You truly believe that?
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Me, of all people, wants -this-?" She hisses through her teeth
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> the fact you are openly hostile to us when we have done nothing is more troubling
<DeathStar> <Jules> I don't recall attacking your Academy at all
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> Nor have we attacked you, but greating this standoff, forcing everyone to divide is foolish
<GhostChain> creating^
<DeathStar> <Jules> Then why have you come to this space port where our forces are located?
<DeathStar> <Jules> We did not come to you
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> to reason
<DeathStar> 6* Jules laughs sharply
<DeathStar> <Jules> You wish to reason with an army at our doorstep
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, Sasha and the others arrive, via portals
<DeathStar> 6* They do not have golden army like Kasha
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> it would be foolish to go alone
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> but I wear no armor as you can see
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I do.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha saunters up beside Jules, tilting her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Both sides keep their weapons trained. Shion studies them, hoping their side does not attack first
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves at a quickened pace to try to get between both sides*
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki keeps her hands in front , clasped together as she studies her twin
<Kemonohime> * Kasha salutes lazily. "Yo."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> What can we do for you?
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> We are begging you stop this foolishness
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> What foolishness would that be, exactly?
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> this will only harm everyone
<DeathStar> <Sylph> What foolishness is that?
<Sara> * Liana peers at the situation, as stoically as she can manage
<DeathStar> 6* She floats upside down
<DeathStar> 6* Celes remains armed, giving a subtle smile to Liana
<Kemonohime> * Kasha snerks, messing Sylph's hair as they echo one another's question
<DeathStar> <Shion> This place, once it is done, can launch an attack on Kumen
<DeathStar> <Jules> The key word there is "can"
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> That's true.
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> no matter the side, starting war will only mean death
<DeathStar> <Jules> But it can also provide a shield
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> And not having the means to fight a war leads to one-sided death.
<Stretch> 6*Mykel moves towards his cousin, but keeping his eyes out towards the field*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *holds up her hands* "Please lower your weapons, everyone!"
<Seraphna> Alita> "Could it not be made to only provide shields?"
<Seraphna> Alita> <Hello love.>
<DeathStar> <Jules> The Holy Leader wants a means to fight back if we must
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> but she took that upon herself, look at how many do not even wish for it to exist
<Seraphna> Alita> "If we are able to defend, why would we have a need to fight back?"
<DeathStar> 6* On the far side, Hapians and the Daemons seem to be getting heated; the Hapians jeering at the Daemons
<Stretch> Mykel> <Dear one...are you...?>
<Seraphna> <Alita> <Here? Yes. Talking with your cousin.>
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Both of, bring your forces to heel!" *gestures further down at the Hapian and Daemon forces*
<DeathStar> <Jules> You are welcome to go back to your Academy and remains out of it. Tell the Kumens that. Perhaps they will acknowledge it. For the rest of us, we wish to have a means "in case"
<DeathStar> 6* They ignore Sasha
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> what leader makes that choice that affects so many
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki stands firm
<Seraphna> * Alita moves to the Daemon, "Order! Do not answer their chiding."
<Kemonohime> * Kasha eyes the Hapians
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> I shall not be moved so easily
<Seraphna> Alita> "We are Daemons, we are not the agressors."
<DeathStar> <Jules> A leader that does what she must, it seems. Much like you, apparantly.
<Stretch> 6*Mykel moves up to Jules left side* "Cousin."
<DeathStar> 6* The Daemons eye alita, but shift back
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Well, Jewels here has the means of it. I won the trust of Lady Eve because it's not something I disagree with, if you'll excuse me...
<DeathStar> 6* Jules eyes Mykel, disdainfully still, apparantly not having forgotten stuff
<Kemonohime> * Kasha heads over to the Hapians, and despite her normal quiet and lazy demeanor one can hear her voice boom at them in chiding.
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> is that what you'll tell the children sister
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> when they choke on their last breaths because of these actions
<Kemonohime> * Kasha looks at her tiredly when she returns.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I've been here longer than you, you know. And I'll be here long after you're gone, so that I might see one of ours not choke on the blood of their last.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *glances at the others* "We are barely able to move a pebble in this, much less a mountain."
<DeathStar> 6* Shion studies the crowd
<DeathStar> <Gwen> You have two sides, each believing their right
<Stretch> Mykel> "Eve stated that for us to prove ourselves, it was our responsibility to handle this. Can we proceed as directed or...?"
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I am not quite sure why we left, when we had a chance to influence things there
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> but you'll doom the rest
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I know you always think you know best and all
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> But it'd be nice if once in your life you trusted me to use my own head.
<DeathStar> <Jules> I am in command of the army here, she stated. I know what she meant, she meant get rid of the threat here to her space port
<Kemonohime> * Kasha smiles warmly.
<Seraphna> * Alita keeps an eye out, sure as heck not going to let those on her side throw the first punch.
<kalonZombie> 6*As does Ceilia, standing right next to her
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> its hard for me too when you can see so many who will suffer and die for you to be proven right, just to spite me
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "If we prevent a battle, then we will do what we set out to do." *approaches Miyuki* "Headmistress, I beg you to pull back to a safe distance. We cnanot afford conflict at thsi critical moment."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> It seems like things are just going to remain as is
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Yeah, yeah. If I really wanted to see some people die, since you think I'm so bloodthirsty...
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki makes the gesture for them to fall back a bit
<DeathStar> 6* The four leaders are talking to themselves, as if planning a battle plan
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> I will not move
<Stretch> Mykel> "Yes she did, but she did not state an exact means; please, your indulgence."
<DeathStar> <Jules> If you wish to tell me, I will listen. If not, no
<Kemonohime> * Kasha takes a deep breath and holds out her arms, a set of her own tails writhing into view behind her, that she rarely shows. "You know how easy it'd be for me to just 'go wild' and do so..."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I pray you have as much common sense as you're credited.
<GhostChain> <Miyuki>....Kasha
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> I dont want it to come to that, we've already been divided enough
<GhostChain> 6*she extends her empty hands to her
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia looks between Kasha and Miyuki
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> We're here to watch this place to fruition. The line in the sand was drawn when you approached with an army. If it's not crossed, nothing will happen, and that's my sincere hope.
<DeathStar> <Celes> How are you, Liana
<DeathStar> *She asks subtlely*
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> and I have ordered them back to safety but please, as you ask me to do for you, please trust me when I tell you how wrong this all is
<Stretch> Mykel> <Lita, please get Miyuki to back the army off...it's the only way.>
<Sara> * Liana just nods in response, as if to say she's all right
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I hear you.
<Seraphna> * Alita movesback to Miyuki, speaking softly. "Perhaps we should back up a little while we continue talks. Headmistress."
<DeathStar> 6* The ACademy moves back, but not the other parts of the army. It seems they are not
<Seraphna> * Alita peers over at the other parts of the army... and moves to the leaders.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...this is bad. Miyuki does not have complete control voer all of her allied forces."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Sometimes good intentions have the worst outcomes." She peers at the parts not receding
<DeathStar> 6* Kalam moves back with her forces, being part of something with Miyuki, the summoni going
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki makes a grimace as she turns her head to those being stubborn
<Seraphna> Alita> "The Headmistress wishes us to fall back slightly, to ease tension in the negotiations."
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> ARE YOU DEAF, FALL BACK
<DeathStar> <Neophyx> Are you ready, Qui? as much as I love Miyuki, the daemon are dying. We have to do something to break Eve's hold
<Seraphna> * Alita blinks, and points back to the voice. "...Like that."
<DeathStar> <Qui> You sure this will work? <Gi> It could
<Seraphna> * Alita frowns in concern. "I know that well my Queen... but... what..."
<Seraphna> * Alita peers between the three.
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> I can't let this happen, I can't let this happen... I can't...--" Her eyes fixated on Salamander and Sylph, practically hyperventilating
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Just stay out of it, Vyvy.
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki returns her gaze to Kasha, eyes fixed on her as she takes a few setps back herself
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Look how many spirits are gathered here-- and the summoni... how can I!?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *to the others of her group* "Start falling back to the palace."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Mom, I think the Daemons, Ents, and Amazonsd are going to move
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> Kasha...look on me for I will only do this once and never again
<DeathStar> 6* Kalam stays away with her summoni, waiting with the rest of Miyuki's army
<Sara> * Liana gives a nod to Sasha
<DeathStar> <Celes> *hugs to Liana* Stay safe
<DeathStar> 2 - Spirits
<Sara> * Liana nods. "You as well... and our daughter. I'll do my best."
<DeathStar> *Academy0
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> And if Eve persists... the daemons will die-- I'll die
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki kneels as low as she is able to, head to the ground, tails down
<Stretch> 6*Mykel looks towards the Legionaire / Amazon lines then to Sasha*
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> I am begging you....to stop this
<DeathStar> 6* Gnome appears and begins to topple the shuttles, and then Undine slams into them
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *starts her withdrawal* "MOVE!"
<Seraphna> Alita> <Well... damnit.>
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia looks at Miyu, then around at Gnome and Undine
<Sara> * Liana moves to withdraw, alongside Sasha
<Kemonohime> * Vyvy jerks at that sight
<DeathStar> <Qui> Tch. *They begin to stop because of Miyuki*
<DeathStar> 6* The spirits are called off, the shuttles only partially uprooted*
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> end this now before we all do thing we regret and can never take back....Please
<Kemonohime> * Kasha eyes the spirits, her tails writhing and a look of annoyance on her face.
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander looks enraged and Jules looks livid, talking to the army
<Stretch> 6*Mykel grimaces due to the attack on the shuttles, looking at the forces to see if they're holding their ground or getting edgy to attack*
<Seraphna> Alita> <Jules won't let that stand, I think.>
<DeathStar> <Neophyx> If Miyuki refuses to do anything, then why were we gathered. It is not like they will forget this
<DeathStar> 6* She watches Miyuki bowing before Kasha, the queen turning her back as Jules talks to the army
<DeathStar> 6* Gwen stays behind, since he is unsure they can re-enter the castle with the barriers up as is
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> The kids aren't listening very well, sis
<Seraphna> Alita> "The hope was a show of force to stop this from happening without bloodshed... but I'm not sure that can happen now."
<Stretch> Mykel> <I don't think he will...but let's see how this plays out for a bit longer, so far there are not injuries, just some shuttle damage>
<Sara> <Liana> *to Sasha* Sister-in-law... I don't know what will happen right now, but this situation is really bad. I don't think Miyuki trying to stop the fight will actually stop it from her side either.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Kumen
<DeathStar> Club Song 3: Departure
<DeathStar> 6* The team, as they leave the tower of the President, would begin to see a mob approach it from the distance, some heavily armed
<kalonZombie> <Max> Okay, what's going on with them?
<Seraphna> * Luci grumbles. "Our world has the singular ability to eat itself alive."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Poilitics. We need a ride. Now."
<Seraphna> Luci> "Everyone should know Macross is bullshit-central, instead they eat from his hand."
<Stretch> Jelly> "They're getting ready to storm CoreSec...and dispose the President..."
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher shrugs. "People are dumb."
<Jackieness> <Kira> *looks for said ride*
<DeathStar> 6* She walks along the street as they get closer to the HQ
<Stretch> 6*Jelly nods in agreement with Cypher*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max follows
<Sara> <Chelsea> Dumb and dangerous...
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe follows
<DeathStar> <Cypher> *she checks the time, then pauses, waving Kira off looking, pointing up ahead at a figure in the road, bloodied* Ho
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher moves over
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Looks like the mob came through here already
<Seraphna> * Luci keeps moving with the others. "Mmm?"
<Jackieness> <Kira> *shifts her attention and moves after Cypher*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe moves to check
<DeathStar> 6* She kneels. On the ground is a bunch of bloodied fliers that look familiar. The figure is under a car, a wind a little smashed
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Wolfe, can you clear the car off of them?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly frowns but follows, peering down and hoping it isn't Ortora...*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... How to get respect for yourself and your body? How to control your image?
<Seraphna> * Luci blinks and moves to help. "No..."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Don't let sex control you?
<kalonZombie> 6*Max rushes over, moving to lift the car
<Seraphna> * Luci grunts and tries to move the car. "Ort...!"
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe helps shove the car
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher peers, a beat up Ortora under it, looking like she was beaten up because she's from Geyze, a wing a little crushed
<Jackieness> <Kira> *picks up one of the fliers while they move the car*
<Sara> * Chelsea's fist is clinched
<Seraphna> * Luci checks her over, checking for a pulse. "Please be alive..."
<Stretch> 6*Jelly moves around to the side and tries to help Ortora out
<DeathStar> 6* Ortora seems alive, though unconscious.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Ortora, what did we say about going out by yourself..? 6*He says worriedly
<Seraphna> * Luci lifts her gently. "W-We need to get her somewhere safe."
<DeathStar> 6* A cat mech walks by heading for CoreSector
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...what is that?" *points at the cat mech*
<Stretch> 6*Jelly fumbles at the lower compartment of his pack, pulling out the syringes again*
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> what in the...
<Seraphna> * Luci looks back at towards the mob, growling like a monster. Her eyes look like she's ready to go dragon and tear the crowd apart.
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher breaks the window of the car and fiddles with hotwiring it
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...Looks like Ymir's doing.
<DeathStar> 6* It meows at the crowds and begins to fire non lethal rounds into it
<kalonZombie> 6*Max takes her shoulde
<kalonZombie> r
<DeathStar> 6* On the side is Twilight's Corporation all over it, declaring it one of their designs
<kalonZombie> <Max> If you do it you're no better than them. Let's beat up someone who actually matters.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Put her in the back of the car for now
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Let's load up and head out!"
<Seraphna> Luci> "O-Okay." *she moves to put her in the back*
<Sara> * Chelsea gets in, glancing back reluctantly
<kalonZombie> 6*Max gets in as well
<Seraphna> Luci> "I hate this planet."
<Jackieness> <Kira> *climbs into thw car*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe gets in
<Stretch> 6*Jelly offers up one of the syringes to Luci as he gets in the car* "Adrenaline...it should wake her up pretty quick..."
<DeathStar> 6* The cat mech merowls, leaping on people and nuzzling them - into unconsciousness. Soon the mob begins to overpower the mech, smashing it. It can be heard merowwwwling
<DeathStar> End Song
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher drives off with them, leaving the vailiant cat mech behind
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Yeah, Kumen sucks. Geyze isn't much better though.>
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher stops by a hospital as Ortora wakes up, whimpering
<DeathStar> <Ortora> Owie..
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Here.
<Seraphna> * Luci gently carries her out. "It's okay, we're getting you to a hospital."
<DeathStar> 6* Down the road is MAcross HQ, surrounded by cheering fans. In the middle of it is Asarar, waiting on them with a backpack
<DeathStar> <Ortora> Sorry I'm ... so much trouble
<kalonZombie> 6*Max walks alongside her
<Seraphna> * Luci brings her into the ER to get taken care of. "You're family."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey, don't be.
<DeathStar> 6* Nurses come out and help her onto a stretcher
<DeathStar> <Nurse> We have her. Poor sweetie
<kalonZombie> <Max> You heal her up nice.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Take good care of her." *she nods to them*
<Stretch> 6*Jelly puts his syringe back and waits in the car*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Get Ortora safe. Rest of us... we have a rendezvous."
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher peers at Chelsea, looking worried about what is to come
<Seraphna> * Luci then heads back to the car with the others.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max heads back
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... Chel, no heroics, okay?
<Sara> <Chelsea> I do what I need to do. *she says, trying her best not to make it sound grim* ...I know there's better people for a lot of jobs.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> You are the best at what you do. Don't let anyone tell you different
<Seraphna> * Luci gets back in and takes a breath.
<Sara> * Chelsea nods
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher drives on, skidding out when they reach the crowd
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Let's move out." *climbs out of the car*
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie pops out of Asarar's bag, moving over to Chel
<Seraphna> Luci> "I have a plan. Don't die. Whatever we all do. No dying."
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Save it for punching Macross in his stupid fucking face, dear.>
<Sara> * Chelsea jerks, not knowing Bonnie was there
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Alright, I got this. *She pulls out a shard they got before*
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie poofs into cat form, becoming a scarf on Chel*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar approaches the building. "Here we go."
<Stretch> 6*Jelly moves after them, looking around at the crowd and hoping there isn't a mass panic when this happens*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar touches the shard against the building's force field made of the two shards, and suddenly her shard jerks, and shakes, then explodes, causing a chain reaction across the building
<DeathStar> Club 4 - What Have I Done
<Seraphna> Luci> "...Maybe that was a bad idea?"
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar jerks back as the street begins to crack and collapse, and people scream and fall down into the road, falling down a mile into the middle section ground, going splat
<kalonZombie> <Max> WHAT?! 6*He's deaf from the explosion
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *she eyes the MAcross HQ glowing, the 65 tall building now like a beacon of power
<Seraphna> Luci> "...Umm... did we just hand him a loaded gun?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly pushes at the back of others, trying to get them moving towards the HQ and away from the crevise*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> What the hell did I do?
<Stretch> Jelly> "Move now...questions later!"
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> we'll figure that out when we ARENT falling in
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Move! Move! Move!"
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar jerks at another section of building breaking off. Suddenly a beam erupts from the building, shooting forward and off planet, but then it continues to glow, as if things inside were going out of control. Asarar and Cypher hurry in
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads in*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe hurries in
<Seraphna> * Luci forms her Level 1 armor and heads in.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max rushes in, pulling out his sword
<Sara> * Chelsea hurries after Asarar and Cypher
<Sara> * Daggers drawn
<DeathStar> 6* Meanwhile, Maxwell jerks as his spirit creation and devices begin to explode and go out of control, the shards near them glowing and attaching to them, forming a suckage and going out of control. Ymir stands there, staring in fascination
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> What the hell is going on!?
<Stretch> 6*Jelly follows behind the others since he's the squishy computer geek*
<DeathStar> 6* He watches his lab transforming
<Seraphna> Luci> "You know how when you put too much energy into shields and some things they can explode? I think this is kinda like that, only with tentacles and lasers."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar and Cypher peer around the lobby as cracks form and shake, the building still jerking about as the shards seem to be doing something
<Seraphna> * Luci frowns. "Think the elevator is a good idea?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> Probably not
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Of course, the stairs are probably tripping too."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey to be fair I didn't say any way else up was a good idea.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe tries the stairs anyway
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I just hope things work out
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT- End Song
<DeathStar> Location: Academy
<DeathStar> Academy Song 4: Chain Reaction
<DeathStar> 6* As the groups are backing off, and Miyuki is kneeling, suddenly a beam of reality strikes the shuttle pads and shuttles, causing energy to jerk about them
<Seraphna> Alita> "Wh-Wha...."
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki reels as she rights herself
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> what in the
<DeathStar> 6* As the shuttles begin to explode, taking out Hapian armies, Salamander eyes the skies in rage and as the beam begins to retract, she grabs onto it, as if riding it back to the source, no doubt to get revenge, the area scorched as the shuttle pads begin to explode
<Stretch> 6*Mykel jerks away and tries to tackle Jules away from the shuttle pad and towards relative safety*
<DeathStar> <Qui> Undine! Stop her!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Is everyone alright?!"
<DeathStar> 6* Undine grabs onto Salamander as the beam retracts
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia clings to Alita
<DeathStar> 6* Jules oofs as they hit, the explosions still ripping and taking out armies on both sides
<Sara> <Liana> I don't like the looks of this!
<DeathStar> 6* Celes is knocked over, eating dirt and Gwen winces as it finally ends, fires burning
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Salamander!!
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> medics! Healers! get the lead out!
<Seraphna> * Alita squeals and frowns, rushing to the aid of some injured soldiers as she sees them.
<Sara> * Liana runs over to Celes to check on her
<DeathStar> 6* The night sky clears, the beam gone, ans the two spirits
<Seraphna> * Alita doesn't seem to care what side they're on.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia moves to help her, though she's not really a healer, but she CAN act as a backup mana battery for her sister
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Salamander, Undineeee..!!
<DeathStar> 6* Celes grimaces with a smile, sitting up. Jules looks over, anger in his eyes.
<Stretch> 6*Mykel checks on Jules beneath him*
<DeathStar> <Jules> They attacked. They actually ATTACKED us
<Seraphna> Alita> "How... what was that power?"
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Certainly looks that way, but we don't know for sure yet.
<Stretch> Mykel> "We don't know what that was...or from where. Just wait for the facts!"
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> why attack THAT, when we were clustered so close by
<Sara> <Liana> Cel, where's our little one? *she asks softly as she gives her a little affection to comfort for a moment*
<Kemonohime> * Kasha looks over and peers at the debris and parts of the shuttle continuing to fire and combust, holding out her hand and closing it, claws of shadow erupting from the ground and consuming-- crushing them.
<DeathStar> <Celes> I left her back with Lumi and a few others
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> it would have made morse sense to take us all out in one spot
<DeathStar> 6* Jules draws a sword
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Everyone, begin seeing to the wounded. The situation has changed."
<Seraphna> Alita> "We'd only have been closer in an attempt to kill one another."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Jules, you raise that sword I will put you down.
<DeathStar> <Jules> If your army hadn't been distracting, we could have raised the shield. That was Salamander and Sylph's job
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki braces
<DeathStar> 6* Jules marches and strikes some debris, taking an object
<DeathStar> End Song
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> then attack me if you have the balls
<Kemonohime> * Kasha turns and eyes Miyuki with death
<Seraphna> Alita> "I think we have too powerful a common enemy to complicate this MORE by fighting each other now!"
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> but right now BOTH our sides are trying to help eachother
<Stretch> 6*Mykel follows after Jules* "Stop it cousin, we can't blame anybody until we know WHO to blame."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> And people say my phrasing is bad.
<DeathStar> 6* Jules eyes Mykel. "I know who my enemy is now."
<DeathStar> 6* Jules orders his side to line up, and the Holy Order begins to back away from the other side. Celes holds onto Liana
<DeathStar> 6* The wounded, only giving a nod to their healers, hop back
<Stretch> 6*Mykel stands his ground and looks back* "And who would that be? Are you telepathic and know for a fact who sent that or how?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...at least the threat of a bttle here has been averted."
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki marches for where the wounded are
<Seraphna> * Alita keeps working on wounded she can reach, organizing Academy healers.
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Salamander... Undine... where..
<DeathStar> 6* Sylph walks, not fluttering, to join her side, and opens a portal when ordered; the Holy Order pours through. Celsius studies it
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia helps her organize, keeping Alita charged for healing
<DeathStar> <Jules> *eyes Mykel* Do not push my cousin. Y ou saved my life today
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> everyone who isnt healing, assist in clearing the debris and put out any fire
<DeathStar> 6* He waits for his side to pass, then does the same. Sylph looks after them, her wing burnt, and waves weakly, hopping through
<DeathStar> <Gwen> They retreated back for the castle. I'm worried what Jules will tell Eve, who is already insane enough
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> Celsius, help with the fire...
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius lifts her hands, and brings an ice wave down, putting out the last of it
<Kemonohime> * Kasha turns and follows those retreating to the palace
<Seraphna> Alita> "What's Eve going to do when she hears about this though?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Team, form up. We return to the palace." *moves for the portal*
<Sara> * Liana follows Sasha
<Sara> * Having been ready to do exactly that, as reluctant as she always is to leave Celes
<DeathStar> 6* Celes watches Liana go, frowning weakly
<Stretch> Mykel> "And don't waste what I just saved by jumping to a conclusion that may or may not have merit."
<DeathStar> <Shion> *turns to Mykel* I am going to continue onto the castle. We can't risk our only hope on just a few people
<DeathStar> *Miyuki even
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki nods
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> take who you wish with you
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *lowers her voice* "We need to get this situation under control."
<DeathStar> 6* As Sasha's group arrives, they find themselves alone and cut off. No doubt they are cut off from the ear of Eve right now
<Stretch> 6*Mykel follows after Jules trying to keep talking with him and calm his temper*
<Seraphna> * Alita directs some more healers to fill in for her and heads over. "I think I heard a mission."
<DeathStar> 6* Jules seems to be gone already, where-ever he went through the portal, he appeared elsewhere
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia nods, moving with her
<kalonZombie> 6*Directing healers they run into on the way
<DeathStar> <Shion> *she turns and just moves onward.*
<DeathStar> <Shion> I hope you will catch up, mother
<Seraphna> Alita> "Shion?"
<DeathStar> <Shion> Yes, Alita?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *clenches a fist* "Our ability to manage this situation has just been snatched."
<Seraphna> Alita> "The headmistress said you should take who you need. Need us?"
<DeathStar> 6* Kito bows to Sasha, leading her to their rooms
<Stretch> 6*Mykel looks to the others with him wherever they ended up* "I'm going to regret saving his life...aren't I?"
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki exhales as she moves to help where she can
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Probably
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Kito, have you heard any news form inside the palace while we were away?"
<DeathStar> <Kito> *she shakes her head, moving Sasha along*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFt-
<DeathStar> Location: The Aquarius
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki leans back in her seat as they travel through space
<Sara> * Erica looks at her, seeming fairly calmer than she was for a while after her father's death
<Stretch> 6* Kaylin sits anxiously at the tactical station, waiting and watching the sensor readouts*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *gives a smile, when a beep alerts them they are about to come out*
<DeathStar> Aquarius 1, Arrival
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor stands on the bridge, doing some computer work there
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Flyyyying through space, and having advennntures!"
<Jackieness> <Airym> *runs scans as they come out*
<Seraphna> * Cookie looks down and nods at the alert, driving.
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty is still self sealed in her room
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius comes out of space, right over Kumen. The computer's communication is hit with so many things at once it is an overload, however visually they can see a mob climbing the President Tower
<DeathStar> 6* Getting near the top
<Sara> <Erica> Bloody hell. That is NOT good.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki stares
<Stretch> Kaylin> "Um...CoreSec Relations seems to have done a 180 while we were gone..."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The sociopolitcal situation has deteriorated, it would appear."
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor works to get the overload under control
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki sends a message to Kitty that they are here and she needs to come out now
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Can you bring the Aquarius along side the tower?
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty moves to the bridge
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille comes out of her capsule and yawns, holding her bear
<Stretch> Kaylin> "Should we contact the President and offer assistance evacuating?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I would think losing that place would be a devastating blow
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki moves for the navigation controls herself
<Sara> * Erica helps
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Hold on. 6* She jerks and sends the Aquarius down into the atmosphere, a bump as they enter
<Stretch> Kaylin> "Can we use the ships transporters to move people away from the building then?"
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty slides in the rest of the way, landing with a THUD
<DeathStar> <Yuki> They would have to enter our ship first before we can move them.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The gathering is too large."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> I WAS on my way....
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Sorry. But we're trying to rescue the President to see if we are bad enough girls
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and muses.
<GhostChain> <Kitty> what!? what happened
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Do we have teleporters working?"
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Hey, I'm not a girl.
<Sara> * Erica eyes Yuki's reference with an eyebrow, not getting it
<DeathStar> 6* She lines up with the top of the tower, opening the side of the hatch of the Aquarius. "Yep. Also I put the ship on stun."
<DeathStar> 6* She hurries to leap out.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *sorts through the comm chatter*
<DeathStar> Aquarius 2 - Battle Atop of the Tower
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty moves after Yuki
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be all sorts of things that have been going on that night
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin ponders for a moment before standing and after pulling out her dual SMG's, follows after*
<DeathStar> 6* Sen and the President are on the very top of the Tower, having been driven up there, with terminals set up to keep defenses going. The mob spills on top of it, attacking them with make shift weapons. Sen kicks one man off to fall 70 stories to his death
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Apparently there have been a series of assassinations. I have a broadcast from MAxwell Terran of Macross claiming he caught the assassin and laying the blame on the president."
<Sara> * Erica cringes as she jumps after Yuki, glancing back at her poor ship
<DeathStar> 6* The President forms foxfire in her hands, her gauntlets glowing, then uppercuts a man off
<DeathStar> 6* Her mask torn in places
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki lands beside them and flip kicks a few people
<GhostChain> <Kitty> Sen!
<DeathStar> <Sen> Hello, Kitty
<DeathStar> 6* Sen tazers a man's balls
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse drops, forming with Yulindhe to the other form-- and starts rampaging.
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty lands and brings up her fists
<Seraphna> * Cooke leaps and lands with Yuki, forming her guns and throwing out a hand to stun someone mentally.
<DeathStar> 6* A few people scream and points that there is another spirit, since Saoirse glows like one when combined
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Get on the ship.
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin rolls as she lands, coming up and starts firing with both guns in semi-auto; targetting the closest offenders*
<Sara> * Erica runs toward the president and moves to help her stand her ground
<Sara> * Jumpkicking someone
<DeathStar> 6* A few of the mob climb onto the ship, but Mirelle stands there, all spirity. They scream and leap out
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Gor, if you would assist me, we could try to switch government command and control to Aquarius, allowing the president to resume her duties."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> for fuck sake, get back in the ship with them now
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor nods, moving to help with the hack
<DeathStar> 6* One woman, weighing 300 pounds, leaps and crushes the president, breaking her mask
<GhostChain> <Kitty> before we get 'ants'
<DeathStar> 6* Sen moves onto the ship, climbing on
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty slams her fists into the large woman
<DeathStar> 6* They begin to get into the systems
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin sheathes a weapon and hauls off the woman before trying to grab the President*
<DeathStar> 6* The president sits up, her face exposed. Yuki shifts to look over, jerking
<Sara> * Erica jerks and tries to force the woman off of the president
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Momma?!
<DeathStar> 6* "Taiga" sits up, rubbing her bloodied nose as she stands
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty shields Pres
<GhostChain> <Kitty> come on, I got you
<Seraphna> * Cookie blinks a bit and stares at the president a moment, while turning and making an illusion of a dragon to scare off people.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Auntie Taiga huh?"
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin jerks the Pres to her feet and pulls out the SMG again and starts laying down automatic cover fire for their retreat*
<Sara> * Erica glances at the President but tries to act as a human shield, standing between her and anyone else that gets close
<DeathStar> <"Taiga> Thank you. *She moves for the ship. She fox punches another person off, and climbs onto it. Suddenly there is a boom and the city shakes, the tower jerking and knocking a good portion of the mob off
<Sara> <Erica> Fuck!
<Seraphna> * Cookie blinks and balances, running for the ship.
<Jackieness> <Airym> *checks sensors while Gor works*
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty flops about, not in the ship yet
<DeathStar> 6* "Taiga" leaps onto the ship. And Yuki grabs Kitty's hand, sliding too. Gor and Airym get the hack
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor keeps the hack going, in his little zone, unable to be distracted by anything
<DeathStar> <Mirielle> Rah rah, go momma! *she cheers with her bear
<DeathStar> End Song
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty winces
<Sara> * Erica continues to cover, cursing repeatedly under her breath, waiting for the last minute to get back in twith the others
<GhostChain> <Kitty> I really hate...when people do that
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki pulls with Kitty, crawling with her and gets in the ship.
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin stows her SMG's and pulls out the assault rifle, firing at additional mob targets and waiting for Erica to go*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Aquarius is now the defacto capital of Kumen. Also an event has occurred at the MAcross headquarters building."
<Seraphna> * Cookie leaps up for the ship and turns, covering others with her guns.
<DeathStar> 6* As "Taiga" and Sen reach the bridge, Yuki stares at her
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty thanks Yuki and looks over Sen and 'Taiga'
<DeathStar> <Yuki> How did you get here before me, mother
<GhostChain> <Kitty> are you two ok
<DeathStar> <"Taiga> Because I'm not your mother, Yuki
<DeathStar> <Sen> Yes, thanks to you all
<DeathStar> 6* Sen bows to the crew
<Seraphna> * Cookie then follows the others. "Huh? Not Aunt Taiga?"
<DeathStar> 6* The ship begins to pick up on unusual readings
<GhostChain> <Kitty> I can explain that...
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin turns and jumps to the Aquarius, guessing that Erica will follow after her*
<Seraphna> * Cookie tilts her head. "Wait... wasn't there another...?"
<GhostChain> <Kitty> this....is a clone
<GhostChain> <Kitty> named Tora
<Seraphna> * Cookie moves to the controls so they can move the Aquarius when everyone's in.
<Sara> * Erica does follow, though making sure to be the last one on
<DeathStar> <Tora> You can consider me an aunt of sorts
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Okay Aunt Tora."
<Jackieness> <Airym> *focuses on the readings*
<GhostChain> <Kitty> at one point...Taiga really did sorta...died
<DeathStar> <Tora> Me and Sen fell through a blackhole 20 years ago. Somehow we were one of the first here despite the time difference
<DeathStar> 6* Airym would see the world of Kumen is coming alive
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin closes the hatch and stows the rifle, moving to rejoin the others on the bridge*
<DeathStar> 6* Aquarius 3 - Overlooking the City
<GhostChain> <Kitty> and well some people got impatient and made a copy of Taiga, not realizing she just regressed to a fox cub and would reform
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Odd. I am detecing signifcant... spirit activity."
<Sara> <Erica> ...It's the shards, isn't it.
<kalonZombie> <Gor> That is weird...
<kalonZombie> <Gor> That or... Cam.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki nods slowly. Tora looks out over the city, eyeing smoke and chaos from the mobs going on, her own tower having to be abandoned
<Sara> <Erica> Cam? On her own? *eyes Gor*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It is possible that they were experimenting with the shards and something went wrong."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki moves to overlook the city from the window too
<Sara> * Erica moves to Yuki's side
<DeathStar> 6* Eyeing the fires and chaos in the night sky, not even morning yet. but then pauses, pointing
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I-- don't think Cam'dee can do THAT
<Sara> * Erica looks
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin moves to the tactical station and raises the ships defensive shields in case they're needed*
<DeathStar> 6* She points at greenry appearing here and there
<DeathStar> <Tora> ...
<Sara> <Erica> See. Shards. *she says, nearly spitting her words out*
<DeathStar> <Tora> no. I don't think so
<DeathStar> <Tora> They might have been a catalyst
<DeathStar> <Tora> But that is definitely something else.
<GhostChain> <Kitty> you know this means we have to investigate
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor keeps quiet about the greenery, actually kind of liking it
<Sara> * Erica eyes Tora, having seen shards do just about anything or so she feels at this point -- including time travel even
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I lack the data to form a more coherent hypothesis."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I guess we got here just in time then."
<Sara> <Erica> Either way... Kumen... *she shakes her head* Is this good or bad... *she mumbles*
<DeathStar> <Tora> I have read your reports, and they are usually illusions or tricks.
<Sara> <Erica> The people are in chaos.
<DeathStar> <Tora> They alter reality. But I've been keeping my eye on this. There is no reality altering going on Kumen
<DeathStar> <Tora> I think we have spirits on Kumen
<GhostChain> <Kitty> so its waking them up?
<Sara> * Erica gives a nod, a bit morose it seems -- seeing the chaos on her homeworld
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki shrugs. "Either way, we need to get down there and put the fires out."
<DeathStar> -BREAK-
<Sara> <Erica> Agreed.
* Sathen has joined #Dual-Session100
<DeathStar> (Okay!)
<DeathStar> -Opening Scene-
<DeathStar> 6* Up in the upper levels, where the team is trying to reach
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> *he jerks as the lab explodes as a fire spirit and water spirit enter, bouncing around. The water spirit is caught in a machine and seems to disperse everywhere, entering the systems of his the Macross HQ that is hooked into the system and is torn apart
<DeathStar> 6* The fire spirit is almost caught too, but burns it's way out, escaping
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> Ymir...anaylze and find out what happened
<DeathStar> 6* Back down below
<DeathStar> Club 5 - Breaching Macross
<DeathStar> 6* Due to the damage they caused, many of the defense systems are outright broken
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar looks around as they move up the stairs, the elevators broken
<kalonZombie> 6*Max sings to himself under his breath "Gonna punch an asshole in the faaaaaaace~ Doo doo dooo in his stupid~ fucking~ faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace~
<Seraphna> * Luci moves along, her shield ready in case they do run into anything silly enough to resist right now.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe keeps charging ahead on the stairs
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Beyond punching Maxwell in the face, what exactly are we going to do?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly stays near the back, keeping an eye to his datareader to see if any security systems are active near them as they proceed*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher looks around. She pauses, peering into a computer lab, jerking at evryone in it dead, their terminals having exploded in their face
<DeathStar> <Cypher> By the spirits
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> ugh
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Did we kill everyone in the building?
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...I think Macross is out of business..."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar frowns, since she did it
<Seraphna> Luci> "Probably not everyone."
<DeathStar> 6* They reach another set of stairs that look shredded, 10 feet of them gone, meaning they need good jumping abilities
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Tch.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe bounds
<GhostChain> 6*wagging
<Seraphna> * Luci peers at the rest, then shield jumps to get there.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max turns into a tiger and leaps, then turns back
<DeathStar> End Song
<kalonZombie> <Max> Stupid fucking faaaaaaaaaaaaace~
<Stretch> 6*Jelly looks around to see if there's another possible stair that could be used for those who can't jump like that*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *backs up and then takes a running jump, burning a relavant point to get across*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher and Asarar get their sword and stab it into the wall, trying to climb that way
<DeathStar> 6* Kira makes it
<Sara> * Chelsea uses her Manifestation Coating to create claws and climb [Create metal stealth claws. Crawl along walls for 15 Turns+ or hang off ceiling for 10 Turns+]
<DeathStar> 6* Chelsea makes it in style. Bonnie mewls for her
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> come on Bonnie, I'll catch you
<Sara> * Chelsea eyes Wolfe reluctantly but trusts him for now
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie leaps toward him
<Stretch> 6*Jelly squirms but follows Kira's lead, burning a neccesary stat as well and hoping that somebody can catch him if he doesn't make it*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe reaches for her
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar catches his hand and pulls him up
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie catches him
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> Oh my~
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe sets her down with Chelsea
<Seraphna> Luci> "Right, we have now conquered a hole in the stairs. Onward to victory?"
<DeathStar> Club 6 - Life Where There Can be None
<Sara> <Chelsea> Yeah. Asarar and Jelly. Who'd have thought. *she says dryly*
<Sara> * as a joke
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar blinks, then smacks her rear
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe keeps moving on
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Watch your mouth. *As they move on, part of the side wall is gone. Bonnie pauses, then looks out, staring
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> .... life.
<Sara> * Chelsea looks with Bonnie
<Stretch> 6*Jelly hugs onto Asarar a bit* "What did I say about doing crazy crap like this again?"
<kalonZombie> 6*Max looks in
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...What.
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> Max, thats what its like back home
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie points. Outside, actual grass can be seen
<Jackieness> <Kira> "We'll ponder the meaning of life later. We need to keep moving."
<DeathStar> 6* There's even puddles of water
<Seraphna> Luci> "...Umm... did we reboot Kumen?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> I know what grass looks like, Wolfe.
<kalonZombie> <Max> I was born on Geyze.
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> I thought you only saw concrete
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe keeps moving
<kalonZombie> <Max> I bounced back and forth between jobs a lot.
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie stares, almost longingly
<Seraphna> Luci> "We've all been there, dorks."
<Sara> * Chelsea feels her breath catch at the sight, but closes her eyes tight and turns away, focusing herself.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Did I ever tell you the time that I was trapped in the jungle for a year?
<Sara> <Chelsea> We have a job to do right now.
<kalonZombie> 6*He follows Wolfe
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> i think i dozed off
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher gives her a hug and moves onward. Asarar moves on
<Seraphna> Luci> "I vaguely remember that one time in bed."
<Sara> * Chelsea moves on as well, taking Bonnie's hand to get her to come along
<DeathStar> 6* As they continue onward, they see water dripping downward on walls, and even vines growing here and there, and moss
<Stretch> 6*Jelly stays close behind Asarar, almost like she's a comfort blanket for him*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *is sitll going*
<Seraphna> Luci> "This... is totally trippy."
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe isnt even a little bothered
<GhostChain> <Wolfe>ugh that pun
<kalonZombie> <Max> Smells like home.
<DeathStar> 6* The next set of stairs is missing, but vines hang down now. Cypher grabs, tests them, then swings
<Stretch> 6*Jelly runs a finger through some of the water, sniffing it*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *grabs a vine and swings across*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe tries to just leap across
<DeathStar> 6* It smells like real water. It's like something reawakened the dead world
<DeathStar> 6* Only faster than normal
<Seraphna> * Luci swings like a boss.
<kalonZombie> 6*Max swings across like a boss, Wolfe's a loser
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar swings and lands. Bonnie does it, but lands on her ass
<DeathStar> 6* Wolfe lands, like a Wolf
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe isnt being selfish on vine usage since not everyone can jeap
<GhostChain> leap^
<Sara> * Chelsea jerks at the risky theatrics but swings too
<Stretch> 6*Jelly shoulder slumps before following after Bonnie, likely landing on her since he has no acrobatics*
<DeathStar> The Club 7 - The Climb
<DeathStar> 6* Soon they reach the upper levels, where there is less damage. They see more labs and less vines/water/life
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> so much for the nice scenery
<DeathStar> 6* As they move, they see signs of Ymir experiments up there, including the no heat mods that Maxwell has been handing out
<kalonZombie> 6*Max is sad now, but he still hums his song
<DeathStar> 6* There is even parts for the cat mech
<DeathStar> 6* Only it looks---meaner now
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> ANYONE ALIVE?
<Seraphna> Luci> "I liked the original design better."
<DeathStar> 6* Terran Maxwell's face appears. "So you came. Did my other errant daughter come with you?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly grabs a couple of the mods to look at for later, peering at the cat mech curiously before following after them*
<kalonZombie> <Max> Honestly someone should sue over copyrights.
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> shut it coffee cup
<Jackieness> <Kira> *just has to slow clap when they find Maxwell Terran*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Yes we came creepy evil mastermind dude."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey. Are you Terran Maxwell?
<DeathStar> <Terran Maxwell> Well, if you want to do this, if you want to fight the future leader of Kumen, who has not only stopped the serial killer, but brought life to it, step through the doors ahead. But remember, I have the public love on my side
<kalonZombie> <Max> I'mma deck you in the schnoz.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe walks in
<DeathStar> *Maxwell Terran even
<kalonZombie> 6*Max walks in
<Seraphna> Luci> "God complex much?"
<Seraphna> * Luci steps up.
<Stretch> 6*Jelly tilts his head and starts tapping at his datareader, following behind the others*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar and Cypher walk in. So far, the shadow behind them unnoticed due to years of training. As they enter, the lights come in. Standing in the center of the room is Ymir in a battle suit. She smiles, sinisterly, like her father
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> End Song
<Seraphna> Luci> "Oh Ymir... evil just isn't your color."
<DeathStar> Location: Academy
<DeathStar> Academy Song 7 - What is Happening
<DeathStar> 6* As Shion's team walks along the lands, Celsius trutting along, the night dark, despite it nearing dawn, Shion pauses, kneeling
<DeathStar> <Shion> ...
<Seraphna> * Alita takes a knee and peers.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia takes to a knee
<DeathStar> <Celes> ?
<DeathStar> <Shion> It's only spring, so why is the grass so dry and brown?
<DeathStar> <Shion> Is this is a Hapian Castle thing?
<DeathStar> 6* Shion holds the dead grass in her hands, peering all over the area
<Seraphna> * Alita frowns. "We did just see Undine carried off by that beam."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Moisture might be leaving the world at a fast rate."
<DeathStar> <Shion> That makes sense
<DeathStar> <Shion> I hope mom catches up fast
<DeathStar> Academy Song 8 - Castle Approach
<GhostChain> 6*Hand slide over Shion's eyes
<DeathStar> 6* Shion eyes the Castle, then jerks as she doesn't
<DeathStar> <Shion> Ack!
<DeathStar> 6* Her four tails jerk up
<GhostChain> <Miyuki> shhh
<Seraphna> * Alita lets out a little sigh.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Hello Headmistress
<DeathStar> 6* Shion nods. There are many Holy Order guards moving about the castle, the spirit realm barrier protecting entrance
<Seraphna> Alita> "This doesn't look like an easy sneak." *she says quietly*
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki smiles then turns into a fox
<GhostChain> 6*trotting out to distract and cause mischief
<DeathStar> <Shion> This will be fun
<DeathStar> 6* Shion eyes the castle walls, hoping someone inside can let the barrier down as Miyuki gets the guards away
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia tries not to squee over how adorable Miyu is
<DeathStar> 6* The gruff Holy Order guards march back and forth, 5 in total
<Seraphna> Alita> <Love? We may need help with the barrier.>
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki wiggles a puffy tail at one guard and looks cute
<Seraphna> * Alita tries reaching Mykel. To get a man on the inside.
<DeathStar> 6* The guard eyes Miyuki, then moves over
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki bounds towards the next guard
<DeathStar> 6* Shion will let Ceilia handle the wayward guard, as another is distracted. So far, so good
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<Stretch> 6*Mykel tilts his head slightly, moving to a corner of their rooms to get Neek or Leeik there and the others*
<DeathStar> End song
<DeathStar> 6* Neek and Leeik blink, then move over to the corner
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves into the safe corner* "The situation has spiralled out of control."
<DeathStar> <Neek> *thumbs up* You should have just went to her room and stolen her staff, and stabbed her in the throat.
<DeathStar> <Leeik> So violent
<Stretch> Mykel> "Agreed, it seems though that we have backup outside and trying to get in." 6*Looks to Leeik and Neek* "How can we drop the spirit barrier and get them in?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Where is Eve now?"
<DeathStar> <Neek> Um, typically you need a spirit to do it. One that is allied. But if a spirit tries hard enough, any of them can do it.
<DeathStar> <Leeik> I think in the throne room. She's not gone to sleep since the bad news. She's in a bad mood
<Sara> * Liana looks a bit frustrated, fidgeting with her (hilted) sword
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...is the way to the alter clear?"
<Stretch> Mykel> "Liana, are you able to summon Celsius here?"
<DeathStar> <Neek> The secret passages are - since thanks to Kasha they thought you lockpicked the door to get in
<Sara> <Liana> Clear or not clear, I don't think we have a choice besides action or inaction. *she tries touchign her ring*
<Sara> touching*
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius appears, blinking
<Sara> <Liana> Hi, Celsius. *Liana pats her*
<Stretch> 6*Mykel nods to Sasha, that they should do that at the same time*
<Sara> <Liana> This place has a barrier around it and we're needing to get it down.
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius thumbs up
<DeathStar> 6* Then vanishes
<DeathStar> <Gwen> I hope this works out
<DeathStar> 6* Kito does laundry, listening in
<Stretch> Mykel> "While she's doing that, we should head for the altar and try to do what we came for."
<Sara> * Liana eyes Neek for a moment after some thought, also -- remembering that she actually did pick the lock
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I had hesitated, hoping that my cousin could be tempered. If Celsius cannot manage this, then the only remainign option is to have Ashka do so."
<Stretch> Mykel> "If she succeeds, we should still go for the Altar in order to bond you...that would prevent Eve from getting Aska from putting it back up."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Assuming that CAN be done with Eve in control
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "That is the worry, isn't it? The remaining option... would not be pleasant."
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Outside
<DeathStar> The Academy Song 9: Breach the Spirit Shield
<DeathStar> 6* Shion stands over the unconscious guards when the spirit shield flickers and begins to fade
<DeathStar> <Shion> That's the cue
<DeathStar> 6* She hops up and moves through it
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia puts her top back on
<kalonZombie> 6*Then hops through
<Seraphna> * Alita nods and moves after them.
<DeathStar> 6* She walks through the barrier, standing at the castle gates. They lower and a tired Celsius stands there
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki lands on Ceilia's shoulders
<DeathStar> <Shion> I guess we need to head upward
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> .oO(Don'tsqueesdon'tsqueedon'tsqueedon'tgivetheheadmistressheadscritchesanddon'tsquee)
<DeathStar> 6* Shion moves and walks, heading for the stairs. She jerks at hearing more guards and voices. Celsius touches them, encouraging them to touch her
<Seraphna> * Alita blinks and touches Celsius.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia touches her
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki paws Celsius
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius warps them all into the room she left, not aware of safe spaces. They all land on the bed, bouncing
<DeathStar> The Academy Song 10: Castle
<DeathStar> <Gwen> There they are
<Seraphna> Alita> "Hey all."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Move to this spot, now."
<DeathStar> 6* The spot is much too small for all of them, but Shion tries
<Stretch> 6*Mykel moves over to offer them a hand, trying to get them to the quiet spots*
<Sara> * Liana raises an eyebrow
<Sara> <Liana> Don't you think that's a moot point now?
<DeathStar> 6* Celsius looks tired, sprawled out.
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki whines
<DeathStar> <Leeik> Well, cover is blown
<DeathStar> 6* Neek pushes the wlal
<Seraphna> * Alive moves over, pressing up against Mykel to make room. For that reason. Totally.
<Sara> * Liana pets Celsius. "Good work, Celsius. Good work."
<Kemonohime> * Kasha is not with them >_> <_<
<DeathStar> <Neek> Time to go
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Too late then. Then move."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves through the wall*
<Stretch> 6*Mykel smiles and squeezes her hip, but starts guiding them instead after Sasha*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia follows after Sasha
<Sara> * Liana follows
<DeathStar> 6* Gwen moves as the door busts open. Kito bows, then flourishes some swords and stabs them before moving through and sealing it after them. Shion hurries
<DeathStar> <Neek> Which way we goin'?
<DeathStar> <Leeik> Throne room or Altar?
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki leaps for Shion's hair
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I am bound for the altar."
<DeathStar> 6* They make a right, heading that way
<Sara> * Liana continues to follow, her hand ready to draw her sword the moment it may be needed
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit, they enter the altar. Celes follows behind Liana, groping her butt
<Stretch> 6*Mykel follows after, absently drawing his sword in case its needed*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia follows behind Alita, also groping her butt
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "If I can take Aska's bond, that would reduce the threat that eve could present."
<Sara> <Liana> A-Ah! C-Cel!
<DeathStar> 6* As they spread out, Gwen checking around, the two small ones rounded by Kito, Shion checking about, they see Jules stepping around
<Seraphna> * Alita keeps her staff ready. "Hello sis."
<DeathStar> <Jules> So you came here after all
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Aquarius
<DeathStar> Aquarius Song 4: Erica's Plan 1
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius flies over the city. Yuki and Tora stand to one side
<DeathStar> <Yuki> So what's the plan, Captain? What do you want to tackle?
<Sara> <Erica> The tower's a lost cause. *she notes* So we'll have to see what else we can do right now.
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin sits at the tactical station, waiting for orders but keeping an eye on the defensive systems since she had activated them previously*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The Aquarius has taken over the functions of the presidential tower and is more defensible."
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor stands at the ready on computers
<Sara> * Erica peers on, wondering on the options
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse sits to the side, worn the heck out after transforming
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki studies the fires and riots
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Did you want to deal with those? They seem to be concerning you
<Sara> <Erica> I definitely think we should. Kumen is... home. I don't like seeing it in even worse chaos.
<Sara> <Erica> The Corporations are another problem altogether right now.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Non-lethal options are somewhat limited."
<DeathStar> <Tora> Hopefully another group will stop Macross
<Sara> <Erica> I would count on it. *she notes*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We can stop the fires right?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Is there a foam system we can spray, something?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "...if the fire were inside the ship."
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin checks the security systems to see if there is anything viable*
<Sara> <Erica> I'm quite sure we have such stuff available, actually.
<Sara> <Erica> But we need to start acting. *she sets in a course*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Can we move it so we can spray it outside? You're all geniuses, do it!
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius moves in
<DeathStar> 6* Aquarius Song 5: Erica's Plan 2
<Sara> <Erica> Worst case scenario, we punch the fire to death. *she says with an odd smirk*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Maybe load the fire suppression chemicals into a torpedo bay?"
<DeathStar> 6* Tora glances at Kitty and Sen, shrugging
<DeathStar> <Yuki> There we go. I'll go do it
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki rushes out
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Oh, we could adjust the weapon systems to project an ionizing field, which could smother the fire."
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty deadpans at Yuki as she follows
<GhostChain> <Kitty> damnit Yuki
<DeathStar> <Yuki> What?
<GhostChain> <Kitty> you know when you run like that and dont order people to come or stay
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin starts readying the torpedoe systems for modified loads*
<GhostChain> <Kitty> everyone abandons ship
<DeathStar> 6* Samson helps Airym do the ionizing field
<Sara> <Erica> Airym, anything of note on sensors?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> That's a scary thought. *She begins to cut open torpedos, putting the chemicals in them*
<Jackieness> <Airym> *checks the sensors*
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty helps
<GhostChain> <Kitty> its been a repeating trend
<DeathStar> 6* So far, the planet is coming alive, there's a fire spirit buzzing the planet, enraged, and mobs
<Seraphna> * Cookie readies a flyby for the fires.
<DeathStar> <Samson> Weapon systems on an ionizing field. Also we can use the torpedos to hit mobs and gunk them
<DeathStar> End Song
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I am not certain... but there is largescale development of flora. Also a fire spirit, I believe, is on a rampage."
<DeathStar> 6* Mirielle sees the fire spirit and goes to make friends, unaware it hates fake spirits
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin waits for the modified torpedoes to be readied, selecting several targets that seem to be the largest fires at the moment. Powering up the other systems and loading up the modification for ionization*
<Sara> <Erica> Agreed. The mobs need to be neutralized. A... spirit you said? *she raises an eyebrow* ...We'll need to see what we can do. Maybe it'll talk to us. *she jerks at Mireille leaving*
<Sara> * Getting ready to leave the bridge if she needs to too
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Ready to fire
<Seraphna> * Cookie performs the flyby so they can fire.
<Sara> <Erica> Ready on your mark, Kaylin.
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille trots to open a bay door to wave out of if not stopped
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> I'll go... keep an eye on Mireille... come on, Yulindhe
<DeathStar> <Yulindhe> Right
<Sara> <Erica> Good luck, Saoir. Stay safe.
<Sara> * Erica looks mildly disappointed at the lack of chance to punch things
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin uses the ionized weapons to suppress the fires, firing torpedoes as needed since they're more limited*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I would advise you go and retrieve Mirelle, Captain."
<DeathStar> 6* The mobs flailed as they are foamed. Soon the fires and mobs are getting subdued.
<Sara> <Erica> Saoir is qualified. I trust her. And I can't fly. *she notes*
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor watches and whews
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille reaches for the door button, unaware of the two coming up
<Sara> <Erica> I mean I can fly but I can't -fly-...
<DeathStar> <Yuki> There we go. *high fives Kitty*
<Sara> * Referring to pilot skills
<DeathStar> <Yuki> so mom had a clone
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Gor, please lock down all external hatches."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> you can blame your mother Ouka for that
<GhostChain> 6*the bile is obvious as she spits that fact out
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Oh? *she studies her*
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille begins to push in the button*

<DeathStar> 1
<Jackieness> <Airym> *tries to seal the locks herself
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin locks out the door seals*
<DeathStar> 6* She blinks when it doesn't rise all the way
<GhostChain> <Kitty> she paraded her around like a goddamn replacement, like everything never happened....while I took care of your mother
<GhostChain> <Kitty> granted I just thought she was a fox kit...but still...
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Boo. *she waddles off*
<Jackieness> <Airym> *sends Mirelle's location to Saiorse*
<DeathStar> 6* On screen, everything is taken of except Salamander, it seems
<DeathStar> <Samson> We have done it, Erica. Good job
<Sara> <Erica> I wouldn't say it's over. We're gonna have more fires if that spirit there doesn't calm down.
<Stretch> Kaylin> "So how are we supposed to deal with that?"
<Sara> <Erica> ...Very good question.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The Fire spirit will start new fires unless she is dealt with."
<DeathStar> <Samson> So foam her
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander floats around, not going near things so far, she seems to be looking for something
<Sara> <Erica> Let's try it. ... I hope this won't be lethal.
<DeathStar> 6* She zooms about
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I advise caution."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It may antagonize the spirit."
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Hold up.
<Sara> * Erica peers over her shoulder at Saoirse
<kalonZombie> <Gor> She can get more antagonized?
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin will target the Spirit with the torpedoes, waiting for a moment due to the warning*
<DeathStar> 6* Tora leans in
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse grasps Yulindhe's hand, tugging Mireille toward Erica for safe-keeping
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Right now, she is not actively attacking anything on the ground."
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse then merges with Yulindhe again and attempts to call out to Salamander
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille is pulled along
<Sara> * Erica blinks and takes Mireille's hand in turn
<Sara> <Erica> In any case, I'm flying us closer. *she does*
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander turns toward the ship, then narrows her eyes, seeing false spirits
<Sara> * Then jerks as Salamander notices
<DeathStar> <Salamander> .... .... *she flames up*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Umm... Ithink we're noticed!"
<DeathStar> <Salamander> You... abominations
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Now you may fire."
<DeathStar> 6* She flies at the ship
<Sara> <Erica> All hands, brace for impact!
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin fires the torpedoes*
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Abominations?
<Seraphna> * Cookie goes for an evasive manuver.
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander is hit and goes down, spinning as her flame goes out
<DeathStar> 6* She hits the ground hard
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki muses on that, touching KItty
<Sara> <Erica> W-Whoa. I don't like the look of that either. Let's see if we can check on her now.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I think I hear a battle
<DeathStar> 6* She then shoves upward
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Now I'm pissed
<Sara> * Erica jerks
<kalonZombie> <Gor> Am I an abombination?
<GhostChain> <Kitty> yeah, we'll talk more on that later

<DeathStar> 6* Ymir moves toward the, her battle suit glowing as she claws at Cypher's face, blinding her
<DeathStar> 6* She flips back, pulling out a cannon blaster and it glows
<Seraphna> * Luci forms her Dragoon Aegis around the group. "Ymir!"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly stays near the door, trying to see if the battle suit is capable of remote access*
<GhostChain> (club 8 is Ymir 1
<DeathStar> (My Bad)
<DeathStar> (Club 8)
<DeathStar> <Ymir> You're not going any further
<Sara> <Chelsea> Cy! *Chelsea jerks into battle stance*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe darts to the side
<kalonZombie> 6*Max pulls out his maul, leaps at the battle suit, and swings at a leg
<Jackieness> <Kira> *glances around the room, looking for the door to the next area*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher stumbles, holding her bleeding face. Bonnie stays with Chelsea, using their bond to pump her up. Asarar dashes in and slashes out
<DeathStar> 6* The door is behind Ymir, sealed up with bars right now; Ymir likely controls it.
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir jerks as the leg is damaged
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe positions himself to attack from behind ot the side as Max is taking the front
<Seraphna> Luci> "Knock sense into her!"
<Sara> <Chelsea> You've done it now...
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir dashes, but the leg sparks
<DeathStar> <Ymir> Mrrrr
<kalonZombie> 6*Max leaps for the leg and swings again
<DeathStar> 6* She aims her cannon and fires a rail like blast. Asarar curses and dashes, but the explosion knocks her and Cypher into walls
<kalonZombie> <Max> Gonna punch~ Terran~ In his stupid faaaaaaaaace~
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir's leg blows up and smokes. Ymir's ears flatten, unable to claw since she fired
<Jackieness> <Kira> "I bet the controls for the door are in that suit's computers. Don't smash it up too much!"
<Seraphna> * Luci leaps in and slices at the cannon with her blade after it fires.
<Stretch> 6*Jelly reaches for Cypher to give her a place to latch onto for the moment, returning his attention to the battle suit; hacking implant Lv. 1 to see if he can take partial control of it*
<Sara> * Chelsea curses, quite a rarity for her, and starts to slash wildly at the other air
<Sara> other leg*
<Sara> (Wow)
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir eyes the cannon get smashed, smoking, then squeals as Chelsea smashes her other leg, taking damage after damage
<DeathStar> <Ymir> b-B-B-Bitch!
<DeathStar> 6* She stumbles back, both legs blown
<Sara> <Chelsea> YOU HURT ASARAR AND CY.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Snap out of it! Don't you see that your Dad made you into his puppet!"
<kalonZombie> 6*Max moves over and smashes the other arm for symmetry's sake
<DeathStar> Clonb Song 9 - Ymir 2
<Sara> * Chelsea tries to climb up next
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe attacks at the arm as well
<Jackieness> <Kira> *dashes around the flank the suit and then tries to climb on to its back*
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir eyes them smashing the arms, while Chelsea climbs up on her
<DeathStar> <Ymir> M-Mrowwwwl
<DeathStar> 6* She ejects and lands, skidding back
<DeathStar> 6* She flops onto her head
<kalonZombie> <Max> You know what your problem was? You were taking on like... 8 or 9 people at once.
<Sara> <Chelsea> Why the FUCK!? *she says, jumping for Ymir*
<Seraphna> * Luci leaps up and down towards Ymir.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe leaps for Ymir
<Stretch> 6*Jelly moves over towards Ymir, pulling a syringe with a sedative in it*
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir spinkicks, weakly, but is trounced
<Seraphna> * Luci shifts her shield to effectively prevent Ymir from striking out at the others while Jelly does his thing.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> don't hurt her too much. He said words in her ear
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe holds her by the scruff
<Jackieness> <Kira> *reachesd into the suit and tries to find the button to open the main door*
<DeathStar> <Cyphyr> If you knock her out, we'll get nowhere
<Seraphna> * Luci pauses and stops Jelly.
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> I'm not that much a jerk god
<DeathStar> 6* She stumbles forward, while Kira would find a control switch in the back
<Stretch> 6*Jelly waits, holding the syringe carefully*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> She has to have a control switch in her brain or head
<Seraphna> Luci> "Ymir. It's us. Your friends. Fight it."
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe rocks her like how you calm a kitten
<Sara> * Chelsea pulls her knives back, away from Ymir, but still seems mad
<Seraphna> Luci> "We're with Ylva. Remember?"
<DeathStar> <Ymir> You're enemies of Macross. My dad. He is a great man
<DeathStar> 6* She struggles, tail swishing
<kalonZombie> <Max> A great man who wants to genocide a planet.
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe keeps kitten rocking her
<Seraphna> Luci> "You know that's not true. Think of what he did to Ylva. To you."
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves over, ribs cracked and tries to eye under the skin
<Jackieness> <Kira> *flicks the switch*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Stab there, try not to do brain damage
<kalonZombie> <Max> A planet I and Ortora come from
<Seraphna> Luci> "What kind of father uses his daughter as a shield?"
<Stretch> 6*Jelly sighs slightly and squints at Ymir* "Sorry kitty..."
<DeathStar> *She moves back as the door opens*
<DeathStar> <Ymir> I am not a shield, I am a partner. *mrowls, looking weaker, and tired*
<Seraphna> * Luci keeps the shield holding Ymir down so someone else can shield.
<Sara> <Chelsea> You hurt Asarar. You hurt Cypher. I won't... forgive you. *she turns her back as she gets up*
<Seraphna> Luci> "Really? So where's your hero right now?"
<DeathStar> <Ymir> ...
<Sara> <Chelsea> Where is Terran.
<DeathStar> <Ymir> I won't tell. *Asarar grabs a knife from Chelsea, while Cypher looks, squinting, but looks. Asarar tries to use a steady hand
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Hold her still
<Stretch> 6*Jelly swallows nervously and activates Connection Lv. 2 against Ymir [All Int-Based Mods temporarily scrambled]*
<Seraphna> * Luci holds her down and still.
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir jerks, going limp
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar stabs
<DeathStar> 6* Then cuts, blood gushing out
<DeathStar> <Asarar> There
<DeathStar> End Song
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves through the doorwayt
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> *hugs Chel* It'll be okay
<DeathStar> 6* She rubs
<Sara> * Chelsea moves to take her knife back now that that's done, her face going through expressions
<Seraphna> * Luci quickly bandages the girl, then follows.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads for the door*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher pats Chel, giving a smile, then moves on. Ymir breathes quietly. Bonnie picks Ymir up with effort, scrambling
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe picks up Ymir from Bonnie, able to carry her easier
<DeathStar> Clonb Song 10: Race Against the Daylight
<kalonZombie> 6*Max practically skips
<kalonZombie> <Max> Punch him in his stupiiiiiiid faaaaaaaaaaaaaaace~
<DeathStar> 6* As they move through the hallway, they can feel vibrations, as a machine runs. Inside one can almost feel a spirit, and life, vibrating through the walls
<Sara> <Chelsea> That's all you want to do? *she says, her voice a little off*
<DeathStar> 6* But it is getting weaker, as if it's dispersing
<Sara> * Chelsea glances around at the feeling
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Apparently its an obssession."
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> ignore him Chel
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher looks out, her good eye open. "It's almost morning. Just an hour or so until morning."
<kalonZombie> <Max> Look, I want to do more, but punching him in the face is number one on my bucket list right now
<Sara> <Chelsea> Magik... Something...
<Seraphna> Luci> "I get the feeling he;s stretching whatever that is too thin."
<DeathStar> <Cypher> It feels familiar.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> ... I felt this feeling before.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Yes. *she turns to Jelly*
<Sara> * Chelsea tries to see where it's coming from
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Just a few weeks ago
<Seraphna> Luci> "Whatever it is... it's probably something else that needs saving from that maniac."
<DeathStar> 6* It seems to be all over, dispersing into Kumen, but something up ahead is helping
<Jackieness> <Kira> "What was it?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> Someone take pictures.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Undine
<Sara> <Chelsea> Keep moving.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Evidence.
<Jackieness> <Kira>
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Then pick up the pace!"
<Sara> * Chelsea moves ahead
<Seraphna> * Luci snaps a few shots as they move, and starts to move faster.
<DeathStar> 6* They reach the door, and Asarar uses Ymir's hand print to open it. It opens up
<kalonZombie> 6*Max steps through the door
<DeathStar> 6* As they enter, spirit machines are running violently, having gone into hyper mode since the incident. They are running all over, and the life force is full in here
<DeathStar> 6* Terran's face appears on the monitor
<DeathStar> <Terran> So you defeated my daughter
<Sara> * Chelsea ignores the monitor and immediately starts looking for a way to turn them off or down
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Jelly, see if you cna treace that signal."
<DeathStar> Clonb Song 11: The Spirit Project
<DeathStar> 6* As Chelsea looks, a spirit blast nails her into a wall
<Sara> <Chelsea> Tch!
<DeathStar> <Terran> But I can't let you stop the rebirth of Kumen
<Stretch> 6*Jelly tries to do so, but stays as far back as he can*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar and Cypher turn as another Asarar, more spirit like, floats down
<kalonZombie> <Max> Blah blah blah final boss speech big whoop.
<Seraphna> Luci> "You're just a fucking maniac as always."
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Are you kidding me?!"
<DeathStar> <Terran> I'm afraid I completed my spirit project, Asarar. You can consider yourself obsolete to my spirit
<Seraphna> * Luci lets her Dragoon energy form a shield and readies her sword and shield. "It's not your spirit you sick fuck."
<DeathStar> 6* The Spirit stands there, then begins to summon spirit of wind and fire, then makes an inferno at them
<DeathStar> 6* It sends Wolfe and Ymir flying into the corner
<Jackieness> <Kira> *dashes to the side and then pulls out blade, stabbing at some of the spirit machines*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max uses the Tank Lv. 2 and rushes at the spirit, swinging his sword
<DeathStar> 6* The spark and begin to explode. The spirit jerks and attacks Kira, but is hit by Max
<kalonZombie> This allows you to, once activated, to take 1/2th the damage from magical attacks you normally would take. This lasts for 15 turns. All damage the GM states, you simply cut in half. If you get something like 7 HP, roll down to the lowest value of 3 for you are a Barbarian. [1/2th Damage Intake, 15 Turns+]
<Seraphna> * Luci Captain America hurls her shield at some machines.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *tries prying the machine open*
<Sara> * Chelsea coughs, reeling from the impact she had, then tries tries to subtly move from the wall if she can
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher helps Chelsea up, then begins to attack the machines, blowing them up, shaking the room and sending it on fire. The spirit makes a face, and grabs Kira, choking her
<DeathStar> 6* Shocking her
<Sara> * Chelsea thanks Cypher
<Seraphna> * Luci then leaps after it for another, samurai slicing with her Shard blade. "Obsolete? Eh? This one's a sitting duck. You stupid fuck."
<Sara> * But then seems in shock
<Sara> <Chelsea> What the hell is going on!?
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar stabs at the spirit, trying to pry it off
* Sathen has quit IRC
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Gah!"
<kalonZombie> 6*Max circles behind the spirit and swings his maul at it's back
<Seraphna> * Luci recovers her shield and peers for Maxwell.
<DeathStar> 6* At this point, due to their damage, the machines are exploding and going.
<DeathStar> 6* The spirit, though, enraged, doesn't seem content to let them escape out the back door
<DeathStar> Club Song 13 - Hero
* Stretch`cell has joined #Dual-Session100
<Sara> * Chelsea activates her Shadow Rogue mod (whichever is appropriate for the time of day now) to vanish, not realizing the spirit can probably detect her regardless
<Jackieness> <Kira> *pulls her back to the machine she was working on and then tries to cross the cables because reversing the polarity always works!
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey ugly, I'm hitting you with my stupid hammer! Pay attention to me! 6*He swings at it again
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, a figure leaps out and attacks the figure, pushing them into the exploding spirit tech, getting them sucked into the damaging, malfuctioning tech
<DeathStar> 6* Forcing them to stick to it, despite the flames burning the figure
<DeathStar> <Cypher> *forces one eye open* Who?
<Seraphna> Luci> "That looks bad." *she frowns and moves for Terran now*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *she darts an eye toward the now available, grabbing Wolfe and Ymir*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max moves for Terran as well
<Sara> * Chelsea cringes but moves along with the others -- likely no longer hidden, her mod wasted
<Jackieness> <Kira> *pulls ehrself away and moves away from the exploding machines*
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher moves along. The survivor peers out at Chelsea as they hold the spirit, keeping them from attacking
<Sara> * Chelsea looks back
<DeathStar> *survivor - hero
<Stretch`cell> *Jelly stays to the back and sends pictures and audio recordings of what Terran has said off to the 'client' for broadcast purposes*
<DeathStar> <Bourbon> Good luck..ungh...kid. don't make this pointless for me
<DeathStar> 6* As they exit the room, it blows out behind them, as the spirit tech guys
<DeathStar> *goes
<Sara> * Chelsea shudders and seems even more upset now. "B-Bour...bon..." She rushes ahead, not making it pointless
<Sara> <Chelsea> .............

<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Altar of Aska
<DeathStar> 6* Jules stands there, cockblocking
<DeathStar> <Jules> I told Eve you would make this move
<DeathStar> <Jules> Just surrender and I will forget I saw you here
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki bristles her tails
<Seraphna> Alita> "So... is it that you want in her skirts... or what?"
<Stretch`cell> Mykel> "Jules, stand down" *moves to the front*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "This is a Hapian affair."
<DeathStar> 6* He eyes Mykel, then eyes Alita in rage
<DeathStar> <Jules> I'm sorry it had to be this way
<DeathStar> 6* The Academy Song 5 - Family 1
<Seraphna> Alita> "I am too."
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki tackles onto Jule's face
<Kemonohime> * Kasha drops from the ceiling, multiple of her tails striking to attempt to slam Jules and pin him to the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Jules jerks as the fox attacks his face, then is slammed onto the floor, attacked by two foxes
<Seraphna> Alita> "You crossed angry foxes."
<Sara> * Liana reluctantly draws her sword, though doesn't make any move to attack
<Kemonohime> * Kasha sits on him, eyeing her nails, her tails doing the work to try and keep him down.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Blood between family is wrong, boy.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Sasha, I think now would be the time."
<DeathStar> 6* He rises, slashing his way free with a holy sword sadly, holding up a fox tail
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Thank you, headmistress." *continues on to the altar*
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki chitters under Kasha
<DeathStar> <Jules> Do not underestimate me, traitorous bitch. In here, I am not to be underestimated
<DeathStar> 6* He wipes blood away from his nose
<Sara> * Liana moves with Sasha, unwilling to let her go alone in this hostile environment
<Seraphna> * Alita begins to chant.
<DeathStar> 6* Celes moves with Liana
<GhostChain> 6*assuming Miyuki is the foxtail she bites at his wrist
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> It's not a matter of underestimating. I won't allow it.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia casts Down With The Sickness on Jules [MISC] One enemy feels nauseous and awful, making their physical attacks weaker. [Weakens attack moves by 1/2th for 5 Turns+]
<DeathStar> 6* Jules jerks as he is bit, then looks ill.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha tilts her head, still wearing the holy armor.
<DeathStar> <Jules> You females
<DeathStar> 6* He kicks out at Miyuki like she was annoying woman
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Sister, I do this so that you and Liana and my niece may be spared this... but if I do not survive this act... do what must be done."
<Stretch> 6*Mykel sighs and uses levitation Lv. 2 to pick Jules up and start moving him back and away from his team*
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I'm sorry, what was that? "Please cast more magic to fuck me up?" Okay.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha narrows her eyes and focuses, moving forward in a brief and sudden rush, palm striking forward toward his chest with force much, much beyond her size
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki whines in her small form and flops to the ground
<Seraphna> * Alita eyes Jules. And Talia peeks out around her casting a Fire spell.
<DeathStar> 6* Jules is lifted, then palm striked, gasping
<kalonZombie> 6*She casts Aura of Force at Jules [ATTACK] Ceilia fires a bolt that flies much like a bullet or an arrow out, which pierces shielding somewhat, but doesn't deal much damage. [Ignores Shield Durability, Deals 2 HP Damage]
<DeathStar> 6* Then stroke by Ceilia. Shion eyes her mother down
<DeathStar> 6* Celes nods to Sasha
<DeathStar> <Celes> Do what you must, sister
<Kemonohime> * Kasha immediately leaps after the palm strike and brings her weight and momentum down with an elbow strike (muay thai) to his throat, aiming to knock the wind from him
<DeathStar> <Celes> We have little time before Eve will arrive
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Sit down and stay down. I was being nice the first time.
<Sara> * Liana regards Sasha with some worry, glancing at Celes and giving a slight nod as well... sheathing her sword but keeping her hand ready to redraw
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *pulls out the notes that she and rain had worked on and begins setting up the bonding ritual*
<DeathStar> 6* Jules shifts as his throat is hit, a crack heard. H e stumbles back
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> You're a good man. Act the part.
<Seraphna> Alita> Please be sure not to kill him.
<Kemonohime> * Kasha squints as he dodged and slips down and sweeps, trying to take him off his feet.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Not even a little?
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> That's been the entire idea. I don't want to kill anyone from either side.
<Seraphna> Alita> "I'll have to revive him then."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> None of you are evil.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Fiiiiine. 6*She huffs
<DeathStar> 6* Jules goes down as she sweeps, his head at an awkward angle
<Seraphna> * Alita moves over to check on Jules due to the cracking sound.
<Stretch> 6*Mykel moves forward and forms Psy-Blade Lv. 2 in his main hand, striking out at Jule's head*
<Seraphna> Alita> "Stop now please!"
<Seraphna> * Alita holds up her staff to block people attacking like maniacs.
<Seraphna> * Alita even blocks Mykel, if it hurts her, so be it.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Down boy! 6*She says to Mykel
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *proceeds with the ritual*
<DeathStar> 6* Stretch's psi blade goes in like hot butter, as Alita attempts to block. If I recall, Mykel has amazing reflects
<DeathStar> 6* So stopping that boy is hard
<Stretch> 6*Mykel will stop, the psy-blade wavering a bit in his hand*
<Seraphna> (Only if he chooses to keep countering :P ))
<Kemonohime> * Kasha would definitely roundhouse Mykel if he's going to aim to kill Jules
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, Aska appears
<Seraphna> * Alita then turns and starts to cast Mage Cure Max on Jules.
<DeathStar> 6* The Academy 11 - Aska
<Stretch> 6*Mykel *did* stop, moving to one side in case Jules continues after this*
<Seraphna> * Alita focuses on his neck and vitals to make sure he's alive. If still in pain. She's not being overly generous since he's a mysoginistic pig.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *starts the next step of the ritual, trying to form her own bond with Aska*
<DeathStar> 6* Jules' neck is healed, laying there
<DeathStar> 6* Aska waves a hand, sending Sasha flying back
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Gah!"
<DeathStar> <Aska> What do you think you are doing? *She asks softly*
<Kemonohime> * Kasha moves to catch Sasha, then move in front of her
<DeathStar> 6* Celes tenses beside Liana
<DeathStar> 6* Aska stands there, looking tired
<Sara> * Liana takes Celes' hand and squeezes it
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...Aska... move the bond from eve on to myself... to break the influence of the zealots."
<Seraphna> * Alita lays Jules out comforterably. "You're an asshole, but you're my future cousin. Rest and dream of loose women."
<DeathStar> 6* Celes squeezing her hand back, then whispers into Liana's ear something, moving off
<DeathStar> 6* Aska hesitates, like she wants to
<DeathStar> <Aska> I wish... to. But I cannot
<Sara> * Liana eyes dart around for a moment as Celes leaves. Her expression slightly softens
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Why, Lady Aska?"
<DeathStar> <Aska> Her influence is too great. She has something that increases it
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "The staff. It has to be."
<DeathStar> <Aska> *her eyes seem to be getting cloudy again*
<Seraphna> * Alita pats Mykel.
<Seraphna> Alita> "I think we're in agreement we should remove this staff then."
<DeathStar> 6* Jules' eyes eye them all with hate. He will never forget this, even as he passes out
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Lady Aska, please... stay with me. The real you, not what the zealots who control Eve want you to become."
<Stretch> 6*Mykel waits next to Alita, watching his cousin calmly*
<DeathStar> <Aska> It is hard. Infact, Eve is calling me now. A battle is beginning
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...where is she now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aska seems to be trying not to come
<DeathStar> <Aska> Her bedroom. She is facing.... Celes.
<Kemonohime> eve
<Seraphna> Alita> "She must be reacting to the news... Aska, can you bring us with you?"
<Kemonohime> (woops)
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what?!"
<DeathStar> <Aska> If I do so, I will revert immediately in her presence
<Seraphna> Alita> "We will then equalize the fight."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Just send me, Aska.
<Seraphna> Alita> "With apologies to you, of course."
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> I'll get her influence off you, while you remain here.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Then do what you came to do.
<DeathStar> 6* Aska opens a portal
<Sara> * Liana is silent, though she closes her eyes.
<Stretch> Mykel> "Can we anchor you here somehow?"
<Kemonohime> * Kasha grabs her face, laughing.
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Please, otherwise I'm dead.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I will return to finish this, LAdy Aska. I swear!" *turns and starts running to save her sister*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Catch you later!
<DeathStar> <Aska> Go. I cannnot resist her calls for long
<Sara> * Then opens in reaction to the portal
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki leaps in
<Sara> * Liana moves through
<Seraphna> * Alita leaps in.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion and Gwen go through
<Seraphna> * Talia after her.
<kalonZombie> 6*Alita steps through
<Kemonohime> * Kasha grabs Sasha and stops her.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *passes through the portal*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> You need to move the bond when the influence stops
<DeathStar> 6* All of them fall into the bedroom, where Celes and Eve are locked in sword to staff combat
<Kemonohime> * Kasha passes through instead
<DeathStar> 6* Academy 12 - Family 2
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki chitters as she tries to knock the weapons away with ice
<Stretch> 6*Mykel follows along after Alita*
<DeathStar> 6* Eve slams her staff into Celes' gut, launching her across the room, even as Celes slashes her aross the face
<Seraphna> Alita> "Right... let's remove that thing."
<DeathStar> 6* Eve jerks as her staff freezes
<Kemonohime> * Kasha leaps and smashes her foot through the ice, sliding to a stop beside Eve and turns toward the others
<DeathStar> <Eve> !!! No! No no no~!
<DeathStar> 6* Eve peers at KAsha freeing her staff
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Whats this midnight foray, Lady Eve?
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki then tackles for the staff
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> Is this how you sisters bond?
<Stretch> 6*Mykel uses Telekinetics Lv. 3 to forcibly yank the staff away from Eve*
<DeathStar> <Eve> My sister attempted to assassinate me. *She jerks as Miyuki tackles and MYkel frees the staff
<DeathStar> 6* Celes rises to her feet
<Seraphna> Alita> "Knocking sense into you isn't the same as assassination."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves to grab hold of the staff after Mykel pulls it*
<Sara> * Liana moves to Celes' side, hand on her sword
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki did freeze both weapons
<Kemonohime> * Kasha leaps onto Eve with Miyuki
<DeathStar> 6* Shion bounces closer, even as Eve struggles against Miyuki.
<Stretch> 6*Mykel nods and releases the staff into Sasha's care*
<DeathStar> <Eve> Fiends! Fieeeends! Agents of darkness
<Seraphna> Alita> "I believe now is the time, Sasha."
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki chitters
<Seraphna> Alita> "And will someone shut her up?"
<DeathStar> <Celes> I guess I could club her with my frozen sword
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *nods and heads back to the altar, taking the portal if it is still open*
<DeathStar> <Aska> *peers at Sasha*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I am ready, Lady Aska."
<Sara> <Liana> Stand down, Cel... you've been brave enough already, my princess.
<DeathStar> 6* Aska touches Sasha
<DeathStar> 6* Celes nods, smiling. Eve goes limp as Sasha and Aska link
<Kemonohime> * Kasha slides her arms around Eve and puts her into a sleeper hold-- gentle but firm
<DeathStar> <Eve> No....No
<DeathStar> End Song
<Seraphna> Alita> "Yes. Yes. You were given a gift and used it like a child."
<DeathStar> 6* Eve hangs head, defeated as Aska vanishes, now bonded to Sasha
<DeathStar> 6* Eve weeps, talking to people who aren't there
<Seraphna> Alita> "She's snapped, I think."
<Sara> <Liana> ...Celes. *she says as she moves over to Eve, calling Celes over*
<Kemonohime> <Kasha> She'll probably never believe I actually do like her.
<DeathStar> <Celes> My sister...
<Seraphna> * Alita moves over, eyeing Eve with concern.
<DeathStar> *Celes walks over, kneelig*
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki finally forms again, though she is nude unless someone was kind to bring her clothes
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *walks back toward the bedroom, head bowed*
<Seraphna> Alita> "We should make sure Sasha destroys that staff."
<DeathStar> 6* Shion hands her a robe from the drawer
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia brings clothes over to Miyuki

<DeathStar> Location: Macross HQ
<DeathStar> 6* They finally reach the top, where Terran Maxwell is getting onto a helicopter
<Seraphna> * Luci growls. "Oh no you don't."
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe bolts for it
<kalonZombie> 6*Max runs and leaps for it
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir stirs awake, holding her head, then eyes Maxwell, "You---jerk bast!"
<kalonZombie> <Max> I'M GONNA PUNCH~ HIM~ IN HIS STUPID FAAAAAAAAAACE~
<DeathStar> 6* Max grabs onto the helicopter, keeping it from taking off
<Seraphna> * Luci shifts into a dragon and forms armor around her body.
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> Let go! Let go or it'll spin out of control!
<DeathStar> 6* He strains to take off
<kalonZombie> 6*Max keeps holding on
<kalonZombie> <Max> Not my problem~
<kalonZombie> !
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe grabs at Maxwell's ankle and hauls him off
<Seraphna> * Luci reaches out and grabs the helicopter, roaring.
<Sara> * Chelsea moves to try to disable it while Max and Luci are holding on to it
<Jackieness> <Kira> *moves on to the roof, feelign crispy after being manhandled by the Spirit Asarar and the heat from the exploding spirit-tech*
<Seraphna> Luci> <Can I eat him?>
<kalonZombie> <Max> <No! I haven't punched him yet!>
<DeathStar> 6* The chopper turns off
<DeathStar> <MAxwell> Let me gop
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> I will be the next president!!
<kalonZombie> <Max> Wolfe, hold him tighter.
<Seraphna> * Luci sets it down. "Like fuck you will be."
<Sara> <Chelsea> You wanna let go? You really wanna let go? *she says as she draws her knives, spinning them in her hands with a flourish*
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe dangles him from the edge
<DeathStar> <Bonnie> *studies Chelsea, worried
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> you sure about that order "sir"?
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher and Asarar hang back, letting them get this out of their energy. Asarar hugs Kira
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> AAAH. Don't you dare let me go, you barbarian
<DeathStar> 6* In the sky, the Aquarius is being knocked about by a firefly
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> then shut up
<kalonZombie> <Max> Oh if you think he's the barbarian you haven't met me yet.
<Seraphna> Luci> "I could take him for a ride. Hey look, pretty light show."
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir walks up, her face a mask of hate
<DeathStar> <Ymir> You mind raped me. Your own daughter. You did that to me
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe tosses him down and hogties him
<DeathStar> <Ymir> You made me do mean things
<DeathStar> 6* She cries
<kalonZombie> 6*Max lets Wolfe, and then he punches Maxwell in the face. Not at full strength but hard enough
<Jackieness> <Kira> *just outright kisses Asarar, not usually one for public displays of affection*
<kalonZombie> <Max> Ahhhh~
<Seraphna> Luci> "We're not capturing him. He'll just slip out of trouble again." *she says, in nice intimidating dragon form*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar leans into the kiss. Ymir looks at Chelsea, as if saying you want to do something, do it now
<Stretch> 6*Jelly stands next to Ymir and puts a hand to her shoulder*
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Okay if he tries anything, NOW you can eat him>
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> its for now Luci
<Sara> * Chelsea goes straight for Maxwell with one of her knives, her expression a bit twisted.
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> I worked up a mean hunger
<kalonZombie> <Max> Nah, I say we let Luci eat him.
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie and Cypher pull hi back
<Seraphna> LUci> "Tell me... where's Cam'dee?"
<DeathStar> <Cypher> don't. Let him get you
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...It's all... because... of HIM.
<DeathStar> <Maxwell> Tied up in the labs
<DeathStar> <MAxwell> Somewhere
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir puts a foot suddenly onto Maxwell, then kicks him off suddenly without warning
<DeathStar> <Ymir> ...
<kalonZombie> <Max> Do you wanna get punched agai-
<kalonZombie> <Max> Or that.
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie turns to eye Ymir
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe reels, trying to grab for him
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Be a dear and catch him?>
<DeathStar> 6* Maxwell screams all the way down
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...People have survived worse. *she says as she looks away grimly*
<Seraphna> * LUci growns and takes wing, seeing if she can catch him.
<Sara> <Chelsea> ...But he doesn't deserve...
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander comes flying again, having been burning and knocking them around. In the distance, a man goes splat on the ground, falling 65 stories
<DeathStar> Aquarius Song 6 - Everything Goes Wrong
<GhostChain> <Kitty> why did you have to piss it off!
<DeathStar> 6* With 20 minutes between Dawn, something goes beep on Airym's console
<Sara> <Erica> This is the exact opposite of what I hoped for. *she notes*
<Stretch> Kaylin> "Airym told me to fire at it!"
<GhostChain> <Kitty> BET YOU REGRET THAT NOW
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille flies out of the ship
<GhostChain> <Kitty> Its like a goddamn hornet
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Can't we send it sorry brownies!?"
<Sara> <Erica> NO in-fighting. NOT NOW.
<DeathStar> 6* She spreads her arms. Her bear with her
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Please stop
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor just ;A;s since he's way out of his league, just a computer guy
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I apologize, but it had become hostile and was moving in an attacking vector."
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander flies up and eyes her
<Seraphna> * Cookie keeps doing her best to evade, her nose bleeding as she pushes herself to anticipate attacks.
<Stretch> Kaylin> "YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT...Yes Ma'am."
<DeathStar> 6* The beeping grows louder
<Sara> * Erica peers outside, concerned, and looking back for Saoirse. "Airym, your console."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Airym. Please check that thing. Now."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> keep bracing, lets try and talk it down
<Jackieness> <Airym> *scans*
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Whomever fired at her, I owe a fuckin' sock to the jaw later
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> WOAH LADY! CALM DOWN! I JUST WANT TO TALK!
<GhostChain> <Kitty> Erika, wheres the comm to the outside
<Sara> * Erica flips the comm station over to loudspeaker
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander punches Mireille, shocking her. The two are exchanging words, but Mireille remains non combatative. She eyes Saoirse, but finally the fight leaves her as Mireille returns no attack
<Sara> * And gestures
<Sara> <Erica> ...She hit Mireille.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Fight's over."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> yeah but it seems over
<Seraphna> * Cookie sets the ship to float and checks the console for Airym.
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Th-Thanks... I'm sorry one of the people onboard was an idiot
<DeathStar> 6* Airym would detect a large spiritual rift forming that is knocking the planet off course slightly, and moving the two planets closer. It is reading as a planet wide event if it continues
<Sara> * Erica seems a bit annoyed; perhaps the parenting instincts are kicking in
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Are you okay?
<Jackieness> <Airym> *checks console more explicitlythen*
<DeathStar> <Salamander> One of the real spirits died. I cannot detect her anymore but remnants
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> Another... like you?
<DeathStar> 6* It seems they only have 20 minutes to try to get the planet back on course
<GhostChain> <Kitty> wait back up
<Jackieness> <Airym> "There is a massive rift forming. Kumen's orbit is shifting."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Airym? That looks like world crashy bad stuff."
<GhostChain> <Kitty> a spirit can die?
<DeathStar> 6* The rift seems to have begun at Macross HQ.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So umm... how do we move the whole planet?"
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The epicenter is MAcross HQ."
<Sara> <Erica> I wonder what her beef with Mireille was exactly... Mireille has every bit as much of a right to live. ... *she pauses, hearing Airym*
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> <They hate false spirits, Erica. I could feel it.>
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It seems so.
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Mireille is real!
<Sara> <Erica> ...Okay, we have to do something NOW. Is it a shard?
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Sure kid. *She turns back to the planet, sad*
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> You can sense 'remnants. If so, we can do something about it, right? Let us help you.
<Sara> <Erica> <There's no such thing as false spirits.> *she says as if it's a matter of fact*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *performs a directed scan at Macross*
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius has 15 minutes to try to nudge the planet back, though it would require the spirit engine and a lot of power
<DeathStar> 6* Someone else would have to destroy Macross
<GhostChain> 6*Kitty moves to give power
<Sara> <Erica> Mireille! We need your help NOW. Bonus points if you can get the fiery passionate one to help us out here, because we NEED power.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Oh my
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So... we should get the kid back in the engine." *she gets back in the pilot seat*
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> We came back because we saw a sign all hell was going to break loose and it looks like we were right, we're not sure how but I can promise you we just want to make things right.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The spirit engine could be used to pulls Kumen back into a stable orbit. We will require all available power."
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille flails, asking Salamander and Saoirse to come back on board. Salamander eyes her, but enters through the wall
<DeathStar> <Salamander> Fine. *Mireille and Salamander look around the bridge*
<DeathStar> <Mireille> I am here momma
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> My friends were afraid that you would hurt people that haven't done anything-- people on Kumen fear Geyze, especially spirits, and I'm sure the feeling is mutual.
<Sara> * Erica not just curtseys but bows, being as polite as possible. "We've gotta get the planet's orbit fixed right now..."
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> But we want to make it right...
<Stretch> 6*Kaylin shuts down non-necessary security systems and transfers them to engines*
<Sara> <Erica> Spirit engines on -- let's get busy. *she says with Saoirse back*
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander eyes her. "you remind me of someone, only she doesn't ramble as muc"
<Sara> <Erica> There's so many things I want to say, and I'm sorry that I can't say them right now.
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse deforms with Yulindhe, exhausted
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille enters the capsule, then waves Salamander in. She makes a face of disdain but does so."
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> I'm not the best speaker myself, but... I find it hurts a lot less than my usual method
<DeathStar> <Salamander> I can't let Geyze get hurt
<kalonZombie> 6*Gor moves to help Kitty with the power with their weird bond
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Also what do we do about the actual rift?"
<DeathStar> 6* The spirit engines go into the x2
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I guess radio whoever is there to bomb the place
<DeathStar> Aquarius 7 - Operation Time
<Kemonohime> * Saoirse puts a palm to the tube and nods to Salamander. "It's a promise, then. You help us, we help you. I'll find out what I can do about this other spirit..."
<Sara> <Erica> Yu, take care of it. Cookie, set a course... we have to MANUALLYMOVETHEPLANET *she says in disbelief*
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and radios down. "Ms. Asarar? Is that you guys down there causing trouble?"
<Seraphna> * Cookie blinks and sets a course and hands the call to Yuki.
<DeathStar> <Asarar datareader> Who is this? *there are sounds of people screaming due to dead man guts below*
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki takes over, talking to Asarar
<DeathStar> <Tora> *shakes her head*
<DeathStar> <Narrator> As I said, it all began from small events
<DeathStar> 6* 10 minutes until point of no return. Kumen slowly continues to have a decayed orbit
<DeathStar> 6* Being pulled toward it's twin
<Seraphna> * Cookie gets them into position.
<DeathStar> 6* They orbit Kumen on the right side, so they can activate the engines and push
<Jackieness> <Airym> *sends data about the situation along Yuki's open connection to Asarar*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Now?"
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Understood
<Sara> <Erica> Do it NOW. Ican'tbelievewe'rerammingthedamnplanet
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius activates it's engines and begins to push. Prepare yourself
* Seraphna nods and revs the engines, starting the great heroic push.

<DeathStar> Finale 1 - Save Tonight
<DeathStar> <Asarar> You got 5 minutes to find Cam'dee
<DeathStar> <Asarar> We're blowing this place
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar moves back downstairs and begins to set all the equipment to overload throughout the place
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe sniffs for her scent
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher, with her good eye, follows, doing the same
<DeathStar> 6* In the distance, the sun begins to rise, a sign of the time. When it rises, that signals the time limit they have
<kalonZombie> 6*Max uses 3 transformation points to shift adding 2 to luck and speed, and burns all four points in both stats to find Cam
<Seraphna> * Luci nods and goes hunting. Peering around in the labs for a Cam'dee.
<DeathStar> 6* Wolfe gets it
<Seraphna> Luci> "Caaaaaam'deeeeeee!!!"
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe howls and books for it
<Seraphna> * Luci follows.
<Jackieness> <Kira> *goes down with Asarar, too beat up and lacking special senses to be much good at finding Cam*
<DeathStar> 6* Alarms go off around the place at Asarar's antics. Wolfe finds her in Lab B, Floor 55
<Sara> * Chelsea shudders, shaking herself somewhat to her senses and burning all of her speed and perception, trying to feel for magik as she rushes to look
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe scoops her up
<DeathStar> 6* Chelsea would feel something in Floor 60
<GhostChain> <Wolfe> you charriot awaits Cam
<DeathStar> 6* Cam'dee looks beat up, but smiles at Wolfe
<Seraphna> Luci> "Silly girl, I told you we could handle it." *she smiles at her*
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie peers at Chelsea
<Seraphna> Luci> "Now let's book it."
<Sara> * Chelsea frowns and moves that way. "There's still something here." She's being reckless but at least she means well
<DeathStar> <Cam'dee> It seems...so...
<GhostChain> 6*Wolfe nods and heads down
<Seraphna> Luci> "He's dead, in pieces at the ground level."
<DeathStar> 6* The overload timer goes 3 minutes as Chelsea arrives
<kalonZombie> 6*Max books it for the exit
<Sara> * Chelsea looks to see what she felt
<DeathStar> 6* Inside, is a little adorable water girl that looks like a 5 year old, slowly pulling herself together. It seems she began to do it after Bourbon's sacrifice
<DeathStar> 6* bonnie jerks
<Sara> * Chelsea moves to retrieve her if it's possible and rush out as best possible, along with Bonnie
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher looks around for Chelsea, as Asarar calls time for it to go. She runs down the stairs, leaping over the bits that are missing
<DeathStar> 6* The water girl wobbles, all curious
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher sees Chelsea and helps her along, running for it
<Sara> * Chelsea runs with Cypher, carrying the water girl and hopefulyl Bonnie
<DeathStar> 6* Bonnie hangs on. The group begins to exit the street. Asarar waves them as far back as possible, avoiding the holes in it
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Don't fall!
<Jackieness> <Kira> *hobbles along away from the building*
<DeathStar> *She runs along, heading for the hospital, avoiding Maxwell's body. Ymir spits on it as she goes by*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar helps Kira
<Seraphna> * Luci moves as far away as she can go.
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher busts out at 30 seconds
<DeathStar> <Cypher> Lets gooooo

<Sara> * Chelsea is with Cypher of course
<Stretch> 6*Jelly follows along behind Ymir*

<kalonZombie> 6*Max runs as fast as he can
<Seraphna> * Luci touches Max and goes dragon, swooping and grabbing the lot of the stragglers, gliding away from the building quickly.
<DeathStar> 6* Ymir jogs along with Jelly as they run. Behind them, the building explodes, a huge explosion. Cypher goes flying

<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> What you did?
<DeathStar> <Salamander> She followed me here.
<Sara> <Erica> So you are... Salamander, right?
<GhostChain> <Kitty> youre absolutely certain theyre gone?
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> You said you felt traces
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Don't worry Salamander. I'm sure she'll get back together somehow... I mean... look at Kumen."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "She's a spirit of water and life right?"
<DeathStar> <Salamander> I saw her torn apart in that mad scientists lab.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "If she was dead... how's that happening?"
<GhostChain> <Kitty> try and give it a feel
<Seraphna> * Cookie points.
<DeathStar> <Salamander> I think it's her essence.
<Sara> <Erica> My name is Erica Hildegard. I simply want to say that... I and 'my' world owe you a great debt. I'm... sorry to hear about... what happened. *she notes* And... about earlier. *she also notes*
<Kemonohime> <Saoirse> You don't know for certainty, right?
<DeathStar> <Salamander> It makes detecting her for certainity hard
<Seraphna> Cookie> "If her essence is there... then she can be brought back right?"
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander muses.

<DeathStar> Location: The Castle
<DeathStar> 6* As they explore the damage, they would find the hidden tunnels full of blood

<DeathStar> 6* Leeik and Neek kneel by a figure laying there
<Seraphna> Alita> "Spirits, Kito. Remind me not to cross you."
<GhostChain> 6*Miyuki sighs
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Where is Kito?!"
<Seraphna> * Alita moves over to the figure.
<DeathStar> 6* Kito lays in the tunnel, covered in blood, piles of bodies around her, in a familiar scene of past times.
<Seraphna> * Alita checks for signs of life.
<DeathStar> 6* However, Leeik reaches over and touches her and Kito breathes out sharply
<DeathStar> <Leeik> She protected us with her body fiercely.
<DeathStar> <Kito> I am fine
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Attend to her." *lets out a sigh of relief as Kito breathes*
<Seraphna> * Alita smiles, and lays a hand on her, healing her injuries. "You will be. Anyway."
<DeathStar> 6* Eve, so far, has had to be locked up due to her insanity. Celes looks sad. Back at the Academy, Shion gets the message that a body was found. It seems Karen was killed

* DeathStar claps for you all
<Sara> Looking closer, I was the one who succeeded, Naomi was one off (but still damn, Naomi. and I mean that in a good way)... eesh
* Sara collapses
* DeathStar pets
<DeathStar> You all did good
<DeathStar> For a nearly 5 hour session
<Jackieness> Fuuuu~
<DeathStar> All the exp to you
<DeathStar> If you are curious what I expected, based off some song predictions
<DeathStar> Jules vs. Mykel to the death
<DeathStar> A battle of the two armies
<DeathStar> Inflitration of the castle afterward
* Stretch grumbles
<DeathStar> Having to kick Eve's butt for Aska since after the battle no trust
<Stretch> sorry to disappoint
* GhostChain rolls in that exp
<Sara> Oh relax
<DeathStar> Songs are just guideposts
<DeathStar> Not strict
<DeathStar> I skipped over a few
<DeathStar> Like Eve Ascended
<DeathStar> Since Eve didn't ascend
<Kemonohime> Guess Vyvy found dead Karen
<DeathStar> Probably
* Kemonohime puts Vyvy in a mental asylum with Eve >_>
<Kemonohime> She was looking for her when she vanished end of last session
* DeathStar nods
<DeathStar> I also figured, since Vyvy was at the battle, to follow the group that went to the castle, etc. But like I said, I can't prdict you guys
<DeathStar> It's your people
<Kemonohime> Shade dead, Karen dead after helping rehab her, (presumably) Salamander/Undine dead >_> <_<
<Kemonohime> Vyvy's not feeling so hot about her protect people alibi
<DeathStar> Oh
<Kemonohime> <Vyvy> They all die, just like Catherine. I'm a currrrse.
<DeathStar> Vyvy would feel some darkness stirring again
<DeathStar> And the light retreating
<DeathStar> but that's probably just Aska being in control, right?
<DeathStar> Cough cough
<Kemonohime> Light retreating, yes, darkness no
<Sara> Naomi, I highly doubt Karen's death is a coincidence, let's put it this way
