<DeathStar> 6.22.6091
<DeathStar> Location: Near the Uminite Base/Lab
<DeathStar> 6* Selena stands around, arms crossed, having given the team days near the base to train more, pausing to give a speech when she notices a few not there. She eyes Ruhi, then Cher. Meanwhile, Seniga points Tenebrae's head toward LJ peeing
<DeathStar> <Seniga> See? That is what a man has that a woman doesn't. That is what carries the seed. Told you
<DeathStar> <Selena> Anyone tell me where a few of our team is?
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ blinks and looks around
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga ducks down
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...why are you looking at LJ's junk?"
<DeathStar> 6* Cloe, having followed, waves. Seniga turns to peer at Bella
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Why did you dollow us?
<Seraphna> * Nell rubs her head and sighs.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ finishes up and zips it up
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Selena is ready for her speech." *thunbs back*
<Sara> * Cherie blinks at Ruhi
<DeathStar> <Sengia> Crap. I was just teaching Tenebra and Jinx about men and women and sex.
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Apparantly they didn't know the differences between the genders
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Well hurry up before we get in trouble." *turns to head back*
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx stays next to Nell* *whisper* I know differences...
<DeathStar> *Seniga hurries down the hill, sliding and runs up to the group. Slow prances back up to Cherie, and when LJ rejoins, she shows her hands spreading, indicating his size* LJ scary
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ moves over and stands next to Nell
<Sara> * Cherie seems confused
<Xanatos1> * Bix stands near Selena, watching a small bug crawl on his arm.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena facepalms
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi shakes her head and picks up Cherie not wanting her to have any part of this discussion yet (as far as boys and babies were concerned
<DeathStar> 6* Cloe giggles, apparantly oblivious herself
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga sits, all at attention
<Seraphna> * Nell shrugs and pats Jinx's head, heading over with LJ and her once he rejoins them.
<DeathStar> 6* Spira seems to mumble to herself, arms crossed to side, eyeing the girls' chest as Selena resumes
<DeathStar> <Selena> Anyway, you all spent a few extra days training. I hope you feel more confident in your abilities
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx leans against Nell and looks to Selena*
<Xanatos1> *Bix jerks his head up and holds a thumb up to Selena, giving a cheeful 'DooBoo!'
<Seraphna> Nell> "Getting there."
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> yeah...
<DeathStar> <Selena> Once we enter the building, there will be no going back. So if any of you have cold feet, now's the time.
<DeathStar> *Selena peers at Ruhi, in regards to Cherie*
<Sara> * Cherie looks at her feet
<Sara> * Confused
<Jackieness> <Bella> *looks at Cherie* "Sis?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> Once we enter, there won't be time to follow us in, since they will be on higher alert
<DeathStar> <Selena> So once we enter, you won't be able to follow in later
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> do you still want to
<Sara> <Cherie> Why would my feet be cold?
<Sara> * She asks Bella
<Sara> * At a whisper
<Jackieness> <Bella> "It means you are having second thoughts."
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Any cold feet, one will assume flame form!
<kalonZombie> <LJ> I'm gonna find out what happened to mom and dad so going in there's my best bet.
<Sara> * Cherie looks at Ruhi, and gestures that she'll be where Ruhi goes
<Seraphna> * Nell muses, assuming they might need better shoes if there are cold feet issues.
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods and takes a step forward
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* I go where LJ goes...
<DeathStar> <Selena> We have three options on entering, and I will let you all vote
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae tackles Selena
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi deadpans
<Xanatos1> * Bix places the bug that was on his arm back on a leaf and then looks back to Selena.
<DeathStar> *Selena falls backwards mid-sentence*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Yes, Tenebrae?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "That was totally random."
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae sits on her. "Avoided practice with one and made one fight two friends. Pounce is revenge. Continue!" She throws her arms up.
<DeathStar> <Spira> I should have disciplined her more as a child. *she nods, eating snacks*
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* I not disciplined...am fine.
<DeathStar> <Selena> The first option is to just bust in fighting, but that will alert the entire lab. Uminutes are not typically fighters, but that doesn't mean they might not be strong. The second option is to try to disguise us all as Aurits. The C'en typically show lenacy to the Aurit for some reason
<DeathStar> <Selena> The third option, we try to make ourselves look like the Uminites. They are the only C'en we know how they look
<Seraphna> * Nell flicks her catlike ears. "Well... we have enough cats here that we only have to worry about disguising a few of us."
<Xanatos1> * Bix looks at himself at mention of disguise. "How: Bix = Aurit / Uminite?"
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ nods, his tail swishing a bit
<DeathStar> <Seniga> We'll just have to work extra hard on you
<DeathStar> <Selena> So, what is the popular vote?
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi's ears twitch
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> ... One hide in shadow again?" She puffs her cheeks.
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Think two or three best.
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> we might have to do a mix of two and three
<DeathStar> <Selena> The Uminites are not like the Elite. They probably won't sense you
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Much as I like a decent scrap... going in slugging would just be dumb."
<Seraphna> Nell> "Same, I don't think a frontal assault is going to wind up going well, even with our practice so far."
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix = Extra hard work!
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> One not cat like blue cat or cat-mama.
<DeathStar> <Selena> Well, the Uminites, if you recall, are pale due to them mostly coming out of night, with pale hair, their puplis are slit like
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> cat-mama?
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae points at Spira.
<DeathStar> <Selena> *she reaches into her pouch
<DeathStar> <Spira> I raised Tenebrae. *she waves, an Aurit*
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> ah
<DeathStar> *Selena pulls out make up and a strange contact lens*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "so who is going tobe a what?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> I got these materials - they were popular on Kumen before the Invaders. Some of it was left over in the Club. *she digs in and pulls out what looks like Aurit attachments, with tails and ears that attach* And Aurit stuff
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx muses and looks at Bix for a moment, pondering something while tugging on Nells arm*
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae pokes at the attachments. "... Move?"
<Seraphna> * Nell looks down at her. "What's up Jinxy?"
<DeathStar> <Selena> As for Bix, I am surprised he doesn't have a modular attachment to change features
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix incomplete. * He says with a frown, peering down.
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Maybe make disappear?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Maybe we could modify him to looks like soemthing else?"
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi looks down at Cherie
<Sara> * Cherie looks back at Ruhi
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix: Pretend servant? Only pretend!
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae bounces on Selena, raising one hand excitedly
<DeathStar> *Seniga grabs a cat tail and sticks it in Bix's behind area, then puts on ears
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> One be like cat-mama!
<DeathStar> <Seniga> *then puts on skin make up all over, adding fur and other stuff to Bix*
<Seraphna> Nell> "Disappear? How?"
<Xanatos1> * Bix jerks but stands still until Seniga says he's done.
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi kneels down and pets Cherie
<DeathStar> <Seniga> *she steps back, a ragged Aurit Bix there*
<kalonZombie> <LJ> I dunno, he'll make a good cat as long as he doesn't talk too much...
<Seraphna> * Nell peers over at Bix. "Now act like an Aurit."
<DeathStar> <Seniga> A bit patchy...
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Meow!
<Seraphna> Nell> "...I think that works?"
<Jackieness> <Bella> "..well I'm convinced."
<DeathStar> *Selena puts the Aurit stuff on Tenebrae*
<Xanatos1> * Bix pauses then makes a paw motion like he's seen Nell do before.
<DeathStar> <Selena> There
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> do you want to look like me and Chloe or more like those other people
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx frowns and continues looking at Bix* *whisper* maybe not needed?
<DeathStar> *Cloe muses and touches Cherie, and bonds qith her, tuning Cherie into a genuine cat girl*
<DeathStar> *Cloe then debonds, pawing*
<Sara> * Cherie jerks, confused
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks
<DeathStar> <Cloe> Can become one with Cherie if wants
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>well that...worked
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Whaaaaa?!"
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Blue cat know how to armatize." She puffs her cheeks.
<DeathStar> <Cloe> Cherie-sis is master
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae moves over to Spira and wiggles, pawing
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> maybe their love is that much purer?
<DeathStar> *Spira smiles*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi pets them both and gives them snacks
<DeathStar> *Cloe's tail dances, letting Cherie decide if she wants to wear the make up or become one for a bit*
<DeathStar> *Selena puts on the Uminite makeup*
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ opts to try to go in as an aurit
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga also puts on Uminite make up, not thinking she'll look as cute as others
<DeathStar> <Selena> Everyone ready?
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx waits quietly, her tail swishing behind her*
<Xanatos1> * Bix sautes his readyness
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Can someone put some of this makeup on me?"
<Sara> * Cherie doesn't seem interested in make-up
<Seraphna> * Nell nods.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae paws at Seniga. "No cat?"
<DeathStar> *Cloe combines with Cherie, making her a stronger cat girl, upping her power*
<DeathStar> *Seniga puts some make p on her*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Eh, I wouldn't look cute as a cat
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> No?
<Jackieness> <Bella> *makes a face as she clumsily tries to work with the uminite makeup*
<DeathStar> *Seniga helps Bella Uminite up*
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae turns and wiggles the tail at Seniga
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Alright. Lets do this
<Seraphna> * Nell wiggles her ears a little and paws.
<DeathStar> *Spira bats at the tail*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "..thanks..."
<DeathStar> 6* Selena marches for the lab doors
<Xanatos1> * Bix marches after Selena
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ walks, next to Nell, then reaches for her hand
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx walks on the other side of Nell*
<Sara> * Cherie seems uncomfortable but comes with the others
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi glances at Cher'oe
<Jackieness> <Bella> *heads for the lab doors*
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> stay close to me and Bella
<Sara> * Cherie reaches for Ruhi's hand
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi takes her hand gently but firmly and follows after Bella
<Xanatos1> * Bix glances around at hand holding and holds his own hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Cherie would find herself one inch taller. The power of bonding with a sister like one and a half year older. Revel in it
<Seraphna> * Nell takes it and walks along, she sticks with her 'siblings'.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Hu hu hu nyaaa! Hu hu hu nyaaa!
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae marches along, a pale-haired, dusky skinned musical aurit apparently.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena and Seniga, sticking with the other Uminites, knock on the Lab doors. When a Uminite opens, they peer at them confused, eyeing all the Aurits
<DeathStar> <Uminite> Yes?
<DeathStar> <Selena> We've been assigned to this lab. I also brought some Native conversions with me to study here
<DeathStar> <Uminite> They sent Conversions..here?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Nyaaa!
<DeathStar> <Uminite> But we're partially linked to the Citadel
<DeathStar> <Selena> I will make sure we don't go near those areas
<DeathStar> 6* The Uminite seems to think, since so many things are blamed on Uminites when things go wrong on Mainland C, and opens the door
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx peeks up at the uminite, waiting quietly as she holds onto Nells arm*
<DeathStar> <Uminite> I will check their passes of course. *Selena nods, handing over passes, hoping the Uminite doesn't look too closely at their races not matching right away*
<DeathStar> <Selena> I will lead them on
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi looks about as they wait
<DeathStar> 6* Selena moves down the main hallway. The inside of the lab soon goes from a normal black hallway to crystals running through it. Doors can be seen on the left and right and Uminites can be heard working inside on projects. The door Uminite moves off with their passes
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae smiles, and since Selena said they probably won't sense her shenanigans like the other C'en might, she uses her shadow manipulation to cause the markings on the ID to shift for the aurit impostors' ID to match the actual mark when he's looking
<DeathStar> 6* The Uminite moves when the electronic ID's are tampered with, especially with Tenebrae's power. The ID's begin to blink warning lights
<Xanatos1> * Bix walks with Selena, slightly behind her.
<Jackieness> <Bella> *moves along, keeping close to Ruhi and Cherie*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Keep moving ahead. Now.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ keeps moving along with Nell, holding her hand still
<DeathStar> *she whispers*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi moves with a bit more urgency
<Seraphna> * Nell keeps moving, frowning to herself.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae narrows her eyes just slightly before resuming being cheerful, her ability switching off immediately and keeps her gaze on the one checking
<Sara> * Cherie moves with Ruhi
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx follows along quietly, looking over her shoulder at the Uminite*
<DeathStar> 6* The Uminite pauses and turns back to Selena, eyes narrowing. Selena moves and begins to talk with him, trying to keep his suspicion at bay, producing a weapon
<DeathStar> 6* What happens next as Selena pulls the Uminite forward, is not seen. Seniga turns and moves them right down a hall
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Where do we go now?
<DeathStar> 6* The crystal hallway continues onward with four more doors on either side, and at the end a stairway
<DeathStar> <Spira> No idea.
<Xanatos1> * Bix looks around, scanning for a bit before shrugging.
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Stairs?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> When in doubt always go left?
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae heads back toward Selena
<DeathStar> 6* Tenebrae temporarily leaves the party
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga listens at the doors. It sounds like experiments are going in at every room
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Selena said to come here to find stuff to use against them to free our parents
<Jackieness> <Bella> "She said just to keep going forward... so the stairs?"
<Seraphna> * Nell peers around quietly, keeping a look out while Seniga listens.
<DeathStar> <Seniga> But first floor seems like experiments
<kalonZombie> <LJ> It's probably all experiments
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga nods, heading up the stairs
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Down likely...
<Xanatos1> * Bix walks along Seniga, thinking to himself.
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Start fight > top. Clear enemy. Slowly.
<DeathStar> 6* The second floor has a + going on, with the on the south part of the +. To the left, they see what looks like a long hallway leading to a cafeteria, to the right looks like a storage area for experiment parts. Up ahead seems to be warning signs and a large locked door. Two sentries stand guarding
<Sara> * Cherie looks at Ruhi and her sister, uncertainly
<Xanatos1> * Bix blinks at the guards then looks interested in the right path, glancing to Seniga.
<DeathStar> *Seniga moves to stand out of sight, peering at the sentries. Selena comes up behind them with Tenebrae, her Uminite paint a bit scrapped off, looking woozy
<Jackieness> <Bella> *looks down the storage hall* "Down there so we cna decide what to do."
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods to Bella
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Yeah. I agree. *she glances at Ruhi*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Not hungry anymore." She notes, patting Selena.
<DeathStar> <Spira> *she raises a brow at Tenebrae*
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Yeah, down, start at the left
<DeathStar> <Spira> You want to try Uminite food?
<Jackieness> <Bella> *starts down to the right to the storage area*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Not hungry. Tried Uminite.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx looks at the guards briefly before looking at Seniga* *whisper* Useful means protected...
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi keeps Cherie close to her
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga leads the group to the storage room. Thankfully they find it unlocked and when they enter, there's a bunch of stuff. There's crystal shards around, there's a strange ray gun, a shield made of energy, a box device, and other weirf things*
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae peers at Selena. "Aska'yuen okay? One protect."
<Xanatos1> * Bix follows after Ruhi.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ moves to look at the ray gun but not touch
<DeathStar> <Selena> Got hit in the head by one of their devices. I'll be fine. *she sits on a stool*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> *she picks up a shard and pockets it*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "See to Selena. Let's see if we cna find anything useful in here."
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi moves to check on Selena
<Sara> * Cherie moves over to Selena, producing a first aid kit and trying to help
<DeathStar> 6* There's also a fabulous cloak on the ground
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae snoops about for anything that might interest a half-spirit
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> Cherie' medical bag
<Seraphna> * Nell peers at the shield in interest.
<Xanatos1> * Bix oohs at the cloak and picks it up.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena seems to come around thanks to Cherie
<Seraphna> * Nell takes it to work with later, grining a bit to herself.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx looks at the cloak and nudges it with her foot*
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ takes the gun
<DeathStar> *the gun seems to take shards to use*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi smiles appreciatively to Cherie and starts working on Selena
<Xanatos1> * Bix looks at Jinx, the cloak in his hands, he holds it out towards her.
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Interesting.
<DeathStar> *The cloak looks fabulous to wear*
<DeathStar> *and quite big*
<DeathStar> *it has crystals woven into it*
<Jackieness> <Bella> *looks around for more stuff*
<Xanatos1> * Bix looks from Jinx to the cloak one more time, offering it one last time.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx holds onto it, brushing her fingers across the crystals*
<DeathStar> 6* That seems to be it. As Selena comes around, she lets them play with it
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae huffs, looking disappointed, and instead paws at Selena and Seniga
<Seraphna> * Nell inspects the shield a bit as she waits on the others, "Mom's was metal... but I could make this work well."
<Seraphna> Nell> "Try puttiung it on Jinxy."
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Looks like we got all we will from here. *she picks up the box, peering at it and pockets it*
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Lets go take out the sentries
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ slides the gun away, remembering to try and find some shards later
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx nods and puts it around her shoulders*
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga puts up the remaining two crystal shards, holding onto three
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ takes the shards
<DeathStar> 6* Jinx vanishes, the crystals wraping reality around her, but draininh her stats and life
<Xanatos1> * Bix walks back to the door and ppers out down the hallway.
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Wait... maybe we should scout out the cafeteria to make sure there aren't like a dozen more reinforecements having lunch."
<DeathStar> <Seniga> *eyes LJ stealing one from her*
<kalonZombie> <LJ> It... it needs shards to run
<kalonZombie> 6*He hands it back
<DeathStar> <Seniga> You can have it
<DeathStar> *She nods*
<DeathStar> <Spira> Why bother with the cafeteria. *she points at Jinx vanishing*
<DeathStar> <Spira> When we can apparantly sneak?
<Chaintan> 6*Once finished with Selena Ruhi sniffs the air for anything else that might not be plainly visible
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx peers around oblivious of her disappearing*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "How many people cna that thing hide?"
<DeathStar> 6* That seems to be it in the storage room
<Seraphna> Nell> "Jinx? You vanished?"
<DeathStar> *Prepare yourself to withstand the cloak Jinx!
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx swirls around, dropping the cloak* *whisper* Where? Why?
<DeathStar> *Up down left Right
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<Stretch`cell> Durl
<DeathStar> *Seniga lifts the cloak, and spreads it out* If you're not Bix size? Four maybe
<Xanatos1> * Bix flexes to show how impressive his size is.
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Which means a few trips
<Jackieness> <Bella> "So how do we get past the locked door and the sentries?"
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx mewls and reaches for Nell* *whisper* No feel good...
<DeathStar> <Spira> I bet one of the sentries has the keys
<DeathStar> <Spira> I can pick pocket them
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> One hide in shadow, reduce numbers. Or one eat sentries!
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix: Go punch?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "So the best lock picker should go first and get the door open."
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Go for it Spira. Surprisinly being a good scout doesn't mean being a good pick pocket
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Make go to sleep
<DeathStar> *Spira grabs the cloak*
<DeathStar> <Spira> Anyone want to come with me in case I fail?
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Lockpicking mode activated. * He stands there, nothing happening.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae nods, siddling up to Spira and entwining tails
<Xanatos1> * Bix thumbs up, ready to go.
<Seraphna> Nell> "Maybe you should take it off?"
<DeathStar> <Spira> Alright here we go then
<DeathStar> 6* Spira pulls the cloak on those going
<DeathStar> 6* Opening the storage door and shuffling down the hallway
<Xanatos1> * Bix goes if there's room.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx waits by Nell in the storage room, peeking out at the sentries*
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga peers down, thinking due to Bix's size she can see bit of feet barely
<DeathStar> <Seniga> Good luck
<DeathStar> *Selena peers out as well
<Jackieness> <Bella> "And if they are caught, we'll have to be ready to go help them."
<Xanatos1> * Bix catches the feeling of the cloak around his ankles and blinks, kneeling slightly.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ sits with Nell
<DeathStar> 6* Spira shuffles up toward the sentries, who guard. Part of the Warrior Zhen cast. The three begin to feel the draining of the cloak. Resist!
<DeathStar> *Up Down Right Left
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<Xanatos1> dulr
<Nyaomi> dulr
<DeathStar> 3
<Seraphna> dulr
<DeathStar> *The cloak is resisted
<DeathStar> 6* Spira saddles them up behind the sentries, climbing Bix to try to reach the keys
<Xanatos1> * Bix stands still like a good bot
<DeathStar> *the cloak rises up as Spira reaches out and grabs them, slowly pulling them off. One sentry turns, sbout to spot, when spira ducks down, recovering them
<DeathStar> 6* He turns back and Spira rises, slowly grabbing again. The cloak rises once more
<DeathStar> <Seniga> What is this comedy routine?
<Xanatos1> * Bix tries to pull the cloak slightly towards the guard side to keep them covered.
<DeathStar> *Spira yanks the key off when the cloak tries to drain them again. She begins to pivot and fall due to it. Catch Spira! Down Down Down Right
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<DeathStar> 3
<Nyaomi> uuul
<DeathStar> 2
<Xanatos1> uuul
<DeathStar> *Spira lands in their arms, key in hand. She quickly unlocks the door and pushes it open just enough not to be noticed*
<DeathStar> -TIME HOP-
<DeathStar> 6* The next 20 mins is spent moving the group to and fro under the cloak into the room. When everyone is settled and the door relocked, they find themselves in a room with a giant crystal gate that is shut off
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Huh. Weird.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Ooooh, sparkly
<Xanatos1> * Bix oohs at the gate, walking around it slowly.
<Jackieness> <Bella> "So... this is the thing?"
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx stares up at the crystal* *whisper* pretty colors
<DeathStar> <Selena> I heard talk things like this. *She moves over to a console, and boots it up, everyhing in C'en*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Lets see if I can read it. Hold on
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* What is?
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga stares at it, baffled, while Spira shrugs
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi moves closer to inspect it for her own curiosity
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Pretty.
<Sara> * Cherie steps over by Ruhi
<DeathStar> 6* It seems like a huge crystal ring, the crystal more pure then anything like the others
<DeathStar> <Selena> Man the language on this is dense, true C'en here. Lets see if I can translate with what I've picked up over the years
<Jackieness> <Bella> "...hey.. will they be able to notice if we turn this thing on?"
<DeathStar> <Voice> Don't bother. I can read it for you
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae squints at the voice
<Xanatos1> * Bix tilts his head, walking over to glance over Selena's shoulder, but pauses at the voice, glancing around quickly.
<DeathStar> 6* Selena whips around, grabbing her staff. Seniga holds up her sword
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx turns and looks at the voice*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi twists quickly, bringing Cherie behind her
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ looks towards the voice
<DeathStar> 6* The blonde is there, sweat on her forehead. Behind her is red head in a collar
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Oh... uh... hi?
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> you
<DeathStar> 6* Instead of looking dignified, the blonde's clothes look in bad shape and she seems to be dragging
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Injured?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> ....?
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx narrows her eyes* *whisper* You...
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I'll live. *The red head doesn't seem to take pity on the blonde, arms crossed*
<Jackieness> <Bella> *brandishes her staff as she steps in front of Cherie*
<Sara> * Cherie moves from behind Ruhi with the first aid kit in tow, not seeming to mind the risk right now as she moves over to check for scrapes and wounds
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi moves over with her
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae shadow ports up from the floor next to them, flailing
<DeathStar> <Blonde> *she glances at Cherie, patting her head. Doubt you can help me. *she doesn't have visible wounds, though there is some blood on her back*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Yellow! Tell me where mamas are!
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>what happened
<Jackieness> <Bella> *lets out a breath and lowers her staff*
<Xanatos1> * Bix glances to Selena, studying her demeanor.
<Sara> * Cherie cleans off the blood at the least, carefully
<DeathStar> <Selena> ... *she sighs, shrugging*
<Seraphna> Nell> "So... what now?"
<DeathStar> <Blonde> ... *She studies Tenebrae* Shade right?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Vyvy! Great spirits!
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Shade mama too
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I sensed you all near the gate. You want to waste precious time on that. I'm being hunted. *she motions at the red head* Ask her to tell you later
<kalonZombie> <LJ> ALright. So... what's it say?
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx peeks between LJ, Nell and the others before slowly moving towards the blonde* *whisper* You...who? Why help?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Why. *she muses* I don't know. I should be snapping her neck. *she motions at the red head*
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I guess a certain fox and cat interested me
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Hello! * Bix waves to the redhead.
<DeathStar> <Redhead> *nods*
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Aska'yuen tell one to give Yellow chance to be friend.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> But one not know Red. Why one ask Red?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> That's the fire spirit, stupid, even if that collar surpresses it
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks at the blonde
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Salamama!?
<DeathStar> *she turns back to the others* The computer reads that is a gateway
<DeathStar> <Blonde> It opens up to the network
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae jerks being called stupid, she mumbles to Selena. 'Yellow not nice friend.'
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>....so youre helping us because someone asked you to?
<Seraphna> * Nell raises a brow. "So... she's a spirit and that collar is keeping her in check?"
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Gateway to where?"
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Why hunted?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> A network of what?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Not exactly. Maybe. I don't know why I did it. Maybe because of my legendary's memories. Maybe not. But when the legendary Miyuki asked the spirits to be spared, I made the call
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Despite the threat they posed
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>...threat?
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae moves over to get a better look at 'Red'
<DeathStar> <Salmander> *she studies Tenebrae* Huh. Vyvy's kid
<DeathStar> <Blonde> You'll find your answers soon enough in the network. If not, and I survive my twin's wrath, I'll tell you
<DeathStar> <Blonde> The network is...
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> ... Salamama!
<Xanatos1> * Bix looks at the gate's console, trying to understand the language, recording what he can to memory.
<DeathStar> <Blonde> It connects the C'en empire all over.
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae leaps on and hugs like she did to Spira-- but is currently a catgirl.
<Xanatos1> * Bix blinks.
<DeathStar> <Blonde> You can instantly transport anywhere across the universe in the network
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>what
<DeathStar> <Blonde> But it also connects to the other world
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Woah.
<Xanatos1> <Bix> This connect > Mainland?
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Why C'en. Use anything else?
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Wait, other world?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Where some of your parents came from.
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Where the legendaries came from
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* What if not survive?
<Seraphna> Nell> *frowns* "You keep calling them Legendaries... who are these Legendaries?"
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi glances back at the gate before returning her look to the blonde
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Since I'm marked, I got nothing to lose. My crystal is already damaged
<Chaintan> <Ruhi>...then come with us/
<Sara> * Cherie mouths the word 'crystal' questioningly
<DeathStar> *she limps over, tapping on the keys* The legendaries are ...
<Xanatos1> * Bix seems confused, trying to process everything, he looks for the blonde's crystal.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx moves over towards the Blonde, reaching toward her shoulder*
<DeathStar> <Blonde> You'll see. It's better to show. Before you can cross to the other world or across this universe, you have to go there
<DeathStar> <Blonde> *she turns the gate way on* It's been broken up and split up. We don't have all of it anymore
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae hangs off red, but peers upside-down to Selena
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> One should save Yellow?
<DeathStar> *Salamnder studies Vyvy curiously*
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* What if not survive?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> But the center of the gateway is what made our world. And your answers will come from there better than me
<DeathStar> <Blonde> After you go there, you can then choose where to go
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae lets go of Salamander and walks over to the Blonde
<Jackieness> <Bella> *looks at the others*
<DeathStar> <Selena> Sounds like maybe we can reach your parents from this network centr
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix: Understands! ...a little.
<DeathStar> <Seniga> I understand crap
<kalonZombie> <LJ> I kinda understand a bit?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Yes! One take Yellow and save parents, too, like dragon mother
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> again, if youre already in trouble, why dont you come with us. Youre already helping us
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae grabs Yellow, lifting her over her head, no longer suppressing her spirit side for the moment
<Sara> <Cherie> Come. *she implores*
<Sara> * Actually saying it audibly
<DeathStar> 6* The blonde makes a face at Tenebrae touching her but surpresses it, shrugging
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Aska'yuen! Let's go to Network!" She says it like a city name.
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander follows, tugging at the collar, annoyed at it
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi reels but relaxes and moves after
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Should we be ready to fight through there?"
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I think I have no choice
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Gate connect > Home. Home Connect > Other gates?
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I hope not. Only the elites can go there. Only a few have a beef with you
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Like my twin
<Seraphna> * Nell frowns a bit and nods a little.
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Eight show up, one will beat up again!
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> One protect Yellow
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx waits by the blonde, looking at Nell for a moment*
<DeathStar> <Blonde> I have a name you know
<DeathStar> *the 12 year old sighs*
<DeathStar> *Seniga steps up to the gate way*
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> what is it
<kalonZombie> <LJ> ...What is it?
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *whisper* Asked for before...
<DeathStar> <Blonde> Cheryl. Though I'm not much like my legendary I'm told
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Yellow called Cherry?
<DeathStar> 6* Selena steps through the gate, vanishing
<DeathStar> 6* Seniga dives through
<Sara> * Cherie looks at Tenebrae oddly, her own name pronounced "sherry"
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Well, thanks for everything Cheryl
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi holds out her hand as they walk through
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae beams and hugs her. "Cherry and one friends now!"
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ moves to hold Nell's hand
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> I'm Ruhi, and I know we already made introductions but this feels better now that you have a name
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Well, this is it." *looks at the gate*
<DeathStar> *Cheryl nods, shaking the hands*
<Xanatos1> * Bix goes through after Selena and Seniga.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Y-Yes. *she nods to Tenebrae as she is hugged*
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx moves to join her brother, her mind reaching out to Cheryl*
<Seraphna> * Nell joins as well, moving through.
<DeathStar> 6* As the last of them move through, Salamander entering with a grimace, a few minutes pass by and Cheryl's twin appears.
<DeathStar> 6* The twin walks along, sniffing the air
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ moves with Nell, holding her hand
<DeathStar> <Twin> She brought the spirit here. She actually kidnapped the spirit from the false legendary Miyuki
<DeathStar> 6* The twin slams down it's fists on the controls, dismantling the gate
<DeathStar> <Twin> I will find you, sister. And where you released the other spirits and the bitch Miyuki
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Network
<DeathStar> 6* The group appears on a crystal platform. The world is made up of broken crystals, and seems to be unfinished. Like it is being added to when crystals are found. Huge gaps are here and there. It seems like this is just continent sized, but that it could be grown to be planet sized one day with the gaps. Due to the gaps, gates are everywhere to help warp
<kalonZombie> <LJ> This is pretty
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> woah...
<DeathStar> 6* The group is on one such platform area, floating upside down, but despite that they are firmly attached to their platform. Other platforms are right side up and so son
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae excitedly looks around and twirls, then laughs and prances about
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Pretttty!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> They said once the Network was the size of a world, but the false one stole half of it
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> False one?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "False one?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We go around trying to find all the pieces
<Xanatos1> * BIx seems freaked out at beind upside down, he looks around quickl.y
<Seraphna> Nell> "Getting real hard to figure out what false ones mean when you guys are claiming you're copies of someone else to begin with."
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi looks about, arms crossed 1 "be nice if we could fly around in here"
<DeathStar> *Cheryl eyes Seniga subtlely for a moment, before looking ahead* The person used the power of the Network to create and their creation is draining life
<Sara> * Cherie looks like she is a bit motion sick
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *shrugs at Nell* You can consider me a false life if you wish
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I don't care
<DeathStar> *She moves on to the next gate*
<kalonZombie> <LJ> If it makes you feel better Cheryl, I don't
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi picks up Cherie and carries her
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ walks, squeezing Nell's hand
<DeathStar> *Cheryl peers at LJ, then smiles*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Just... where do we need to go now"
<Jackieness> ?
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae pauses a moment, then uses the flame stone to take on fire affinity, becoming the redheaded form of herself and prances over to hug Salamander again
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We are technically here. We just need to reach the center
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx stands by Nell, looking around*
<Seraphna> Nell> "I'm not... just... really confused. If you're copies based on someone else, then what does that make a false one?"
<Xanatos1> * Bix slowly steps one foot forward at a time, as if he might fall. After a bit he gets more confident and scurries to catch up with the team.
<DeathStar> *Salamander peers around, as if she doesn't like this place, wincing. She holds Tenebrae, walking along*
<Seraphna> Nell> *her eyes go cross trying to figure tha tout*
<DeathStar> 6* Selena and Seniga walk along*
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just eyes Nell, then continues walking*
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> even if you were,Cheryl, Miyuuukii must mean a lot to you to do something this risky
<Jackieness> <Bella> *walks along with the others*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Like I said, I have the legendary Cheryl's memories. *she passes through a gate, appearing on normal, right up side land elsewhere. Seniga and Selena follow through*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She had great affection for her. So when I met her
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I was curious about her
<Xanatos1> * Bix whirs sadly at the shift, shaking his head.
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods, rubbing Cherie's back as they head through the next gate
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Perception shifted. Woozy head.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl points ahead at a huge circular dome area of crystal
<Jackieness> <Bella> *steps through the gate* "Oh man... now I feel sick..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> That is the center point of the Network
<DeathStar> 6* Gates are done up all around it
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ whistles
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> want me to carry you Bella?
<Sara> * Cherie makes a small noise as she feels something come up her throat from her stomach and stops it before it leaves her mouth
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Many gates. Travel world!
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx follows* *softly* What is purpose for Network? And what did false create?
<Jackieness> <Bella> *shakes her head* "...let me get used to it..."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers at Jinx
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi reels and rubs Cherie's back more
<Seraphna> * Nell sighs and peers around once they're through. "That's a bit better."
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> any more of these gates Cher? the little miss isnt taking it too well
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> If I had to say, the false one is what is draining the legendary's world. What they created is putting the strain on it. They made the spirits and everything to do with it. Yet the strain of it made a world that is trying to take over their world
<DeathStar> *Cheryl shakes her head, a straight walk ahead*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> For example, if I cut open Salamander there, her soul would be a crystal gem. A part of the Network
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods and moves carefully after Cheryl
<Jackieness> <Bella> "But who is this false one?"
<Seraphna> Nell> "So... this other world is... oh, from the recording... I think I'm getting it now."
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx nods at Bella*
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *she peers at Bella* If I had to guess, they would be in a position to rule their creation
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Those people typiclly are
<Stretch`cell> Jinx> *softly* How know which is real and which created?
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Uhhh... but the only rules I know are the C'en themselves."
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix: real + created!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> With the power of the network, created is real
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I think therefore I am
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stops outside the crystal dome
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So, Bella is it. You would have us just let the world of Geyze and Kumen bring down another universe altogether?
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Bix am. Therefore...thought up? *Bix thinks to himself, his face scrunched up.
<Jackieness> <Bella> "You just said think of rules and those are the only rules I know."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I mean it's not like we're as cruel as some of the stuff Kumen pulled in it's hey day
<Jackieness> rulers
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're cute. I should send you back 100 years
<Xanatos1> <Bix> Time travel?! *Bix looks excited.
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi sets Cherie down and gives her a cantine of water to help settle her stomach
<DeathStar> <Selena> Is time travel possigle?
<Seraphna> Nell> "Does one form of rule and invasion somehow nullify the other? Two wrongs make a right?"
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> can you breath ok little miss?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's not out of the realm
<Jackieness> <Bella> "What? I don't know any other rulers!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The gates could pull it off. If you wanted to sacrifice your future and past self
<Xanatos1> <Bix> TIME TRAVEL. * He looks to Selena, clearly excited about that idea.
<Xanatos1> * Bix then blinks about sacrificing future/past, frowning.
<kalonZombie> <LJ> Isn't time travel extremely dangerous?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Otherwise we just find other ways to do it that are less accurate
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> By jumping to the other world and back
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You are more likely to miss your mark then hit
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> ... Spirits... crystal?
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Spirit should not exist? "She glances at Salamander, then at Cheryl.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Getting there
<DeathStar> *she steps into the dome* Come on
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Time to talk to center point
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> I..." she tilts her head, for once not saying 'one,' stepping after Cheryl. "... should not exist then?"
<Seraphna> * Nell follows, still trying to piece this all in her head, but she's genuinely trying to understand.
<DeathStar> 6* Salamander tries to enter but can't
<Xanatos1> * Bix seems massively bummed out about time travel being so dangerous, trotting along.
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi sighs and scoops up Cherie again
<Seraphna> * Nell blinks and looks at Salamander. "She's stuck?"
<Sara> * Cherie looks at her
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You are a bit differen't. Being a halfling. I can't say
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Half-not-exist?
<Sara> * Cherie gestures that she feels a little better
<Jackieness> <Bella> *sighs and shuffles forwad* "...and I say the wrong thing again..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It seems centerpoint doesn't accept her. She can wait out here
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi blinks at Salamander
<Chaintan> <Ruhi> maybe its that collar?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The collar should make it so she can enter.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Anyway, you can pass on what you learn
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> ... ...
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> I'll stay.
<DeathStar> <Salamander> *she pats Tenebrae*
<DeathStar> <Spira> I'll stay too
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *she studies Tenebrae*
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods and looks to Cherie to see if she wants to stay with Salamander or go in with Cheryl
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Alright. But know this
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I've been working to circumvent spirits dying
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You give up here, you undo all that
<DeathStar> *Cheryl continues in*
<Sara> * Cherie whispers she wants to stay with Ruhi, wherever Ruhi goes
<DeathStar> *Seniga moves on in*
<Seraphna> * Nell follows, driven by raw curiousity now.
<DeathStar> *Selena hops on in*
<Nyaomi> * Tenebrae has grown decidedly less animated, and quiet, waving a hand at Cheryl, then moves to sit while they go in.
<kalonZombie> 6*LJ follows Nell
<DeathStar> <Selena> I'll pass on what we learn, Tenebrae
<Nyaomi> <Tenebrae> Mh.
<Stretch`cell> *Jinx follows after Nell*
<Jackieness> <Bella> "Ruhi, I think its important we go in."
<Chaintan> 6*Ruhi nods and moves after Cheryl
<Jackieness> <Bella> *nods and heads in after Cheryl*
<DeathStar> 6* Tenebrae, Spira, and Salamander would see the centerpoint center glow as they all enter, and all of them vanish. A moment later, standing on top, Cheryl's twin laughs, perhaps having sabotaged their journey
<DeathStar> 6* She then pulls out dual swords
<DeathStar> -To Be Continued-
<Nyaomi> hm, guess it's good I split off
* Xanatos1 has left #DualSession144
