<DeathStar> 10.17.5991
<DeathStar> Location: The Academy
<DeathStar> 6* Shion has called a meeting, leaning back in a seat
<DeathStar> 6* Gwen moses on into the large office.
<Seraphna> * Alita shows, carrying Talia.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia arrives, walking along her twin
<Xan> 6* Simon steps in and quietly takes a seat, adjusting himself slightly he pulls out a notepad.
<Sathen> *Mykel sits with his wives, Maeryn stands quietly in the corner*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *steps into Shion's office*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy finds a seat, holding a water-spirit child and towing two troublemakers.
<DeathStar> *Gwen leans in toward Mykel* You plan to bond your second wife? *Nocturne climbs on the desk, sending papers flying*
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Get it. It sounds like--- *he gets whacked on the head*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Ahem!"
<Sara> * Ellie and Liana alike deadpan
<Seraphna> * Alita pets Talia, who paws.
<DeathStar> *Gwen rubs the back of his head, giving Liana and Ellie hugs*
<DeathStar> <Shion> I called you for something serious that has been cropping up. Yuki informed me when she was visiting the school
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy yoinks Nocturne, setting her beside her, twitching
<Sathen> *Mykel shakes his head and stays quiet; Miyasha lays on Shions desk*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "What is happening?"
<Xan> 6* Simon keeps quiet as well, watching Shion.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Apparantly the time gate is acting up and the club is preparing an expedition. I imagine it will comprise of all three teams. Those who want to volunteer to go into the future, meet me at the shuttle in an hour. The rest of you will be tasked with guarding the school
<Seraphna> * Alita nods, having interest.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...please keep an eye out for my niece..."
<DeathStar> <Gwen> The future huh. I wonder if I'll be famous
<Xan> 6 * Simon ponders to himself.
<DeathStar> <Shion> I will make sure the shuttle is empty but I think she is at the castle. Those who plan to go, you should make sure to settle your affairs.
<Xan> <Simon> It will be interesting to see what, if anything, has changed.
<DeathStar> 6* Shion stands up and motions at Sasha to stay, while Gwen steps out to get ready
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I'm sure in the future I'll be forever known as "the not-wife of the King Mykel"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *nods and stays*
<Seraphna> * Alita looks to Gwen and frowns a little, not quite sure how to put it.
<Xan> 6* Simon also rises and moves to gather his things before leaving.
<Sara> * Liana frowns, not wanting to leave her wife and child if she may not come back. Ellie shrugs, having nothing to protect or hold on to other than Sylph
<Seraphna> * Alita pokes her twin gently on the nose.
<DeathStar> 6* Gwen walks with Liana
<DeathStar> <Gwen> Why not use the portal to the castle and talk to her.
<Sara> <Liana> I guess I have to
<Sathen> *Mykel goes to let Shinobu know about the mission after looking at Ceilia and pinching her*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ..." She looks conflicted, tilting her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Shinobu sits in the living room, reaing
<Nyaomi> * She fishes the comm off her person and hails Yuki
<DeathStar> 6* Shion once it is clear, moves to Sasha
<DeathStar> <Shion> With the world basically at peace these days, and I imagine after we settle whatever is waiting in the future, the status quo will be formed.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "That is likely, yes."
<DeathStar> *Gwen gives her a comforting pat, letting her go see Celes and Selena*
<DeathStar> 6* Sylph lands on Ellie's head when she emerges
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Hello. Yu-kai services
<Sara> * Ellie peers upward, though can't look directly at Sylph due to Sylph being on her head
<DeathStar> <Shion> Do you plan to take over the kingdom from your sister, or seek another path. I ask because the leaders in this school have put forward your name as becoming the new Headmistress once I'm done with my job here
<DeathStar> <Sylph> Hi Ellie! *she sounds drunk* What r you doing?
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Yu, you're going, aren't you?
<Sathen> *Mykel explains about the alternate future and what is still there, looking to see what Shinobu's response is*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...what?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Of course. Me and Erica are heading to Club Cypher in a few minutes
<Seraphna> * Alita busies herself by calling Undine to let her know what's going on and that she's going.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Damn... okay
<DeathStar> <Shion> They admire your leadership. And you have noble blood. If the Academy is going to become a school for all kingdoms and a symbol of the future unity, they want someone like you to be the head of it.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia busies herself by groping Alita as she busies herself
<DeathStar> <Shion> I just wanted you to know your options
<Sara> <Ellie> Sylph, are you... are you okay?
<DeathStar> *Undine lets Alita know to be safe, not willing to leave Geyze too long*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...it seems that I have much to think on when we return..."
<DeathStar> <Shionbu> I ... see. Then be safe.
<Seraphna> * Alita nods and moves to join the others after.
<DeathStar> <Sylph> fine. Been eating happy berries. Want one?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You plan to come?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Ahem. Thank you, headmistress."
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia follows Alita
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The smart thing to do would to not; but can I afford not to?
<DeathStar> *Shion nods and sits down to gather supplies*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I don't know. ... *seriously* The enemy and answers I came to find might be tied up in that world. If Tora was one half of this world's catalyst, the other person was found in the future.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> So I gotta go
<Xan> 6* Simon sits cross-legged on the shuttle, eyes closed and meditating.
<Sara> * Ellie just deadpans at Sylph
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *heads out to get ready*
<DeathStar> 6* When Liana arrives at her room, she would find Celes and Selena already in the room, a surprise visit
<DeathStar> <Sylph> *hic and cheek rubs* I wuv you
<Sara> * Liana blinks and moves to hug them
<DeathStar> *Celes pulls her in tight for a hug* Hello, my warrior. *Selena barrel hugs Liana*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I understand. Well... I'll see you in a little while, cousin.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The bridge between two worlds, I still have to live up to those words.
<Sathen> *Mykel will smile and head to gather his equipment; afterwards heading to the shuttle*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Good luck. I'll see you soon. *she logs off*
<Sathen> *Maeryn waits beside the team temple, planning to stay; her dragon laying in the sun light and watching*
<Sara> <Liana> Shion's assigned a mission to the future... I'm not sure if I'll go. As much as I love adventure, I could only stand it if I can come back, in such a case.
<DeathStar> 6* Celes looks serious, whily Selena perks up
<DeathStar> <Celes> I understand. Well, if you do decide to stay. *she runs a finger along her chest* I'm sure we can find ways to entertain ourselves
<Sara> * Liana reddens
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *enters the team temple and moves for ehr room* "Kito. Delgi. I am going on a mission."
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Delgo both jump up, with Kito wearing only an apron as she cooks
<DeathStar> <Kito> Do you need us to accompany you?
<DeathStar> *Gwen sits near a tree, debating staying to protect Qui, so he opts to check on the Amazons and keep an eye on the school*
<Seraphna> * Alita tries to hide her relief, not sure what might happen if Gwen crosses.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Shall we, sister?
<Seraphna> Alita> "Of course, we need to check on the kids."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Only if you wish to come."
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia grabs Alita's hand and goes through with her
<DeathStar> *both prepare to come along and quietly shadow. Not a peep. Not them*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Aquarius
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki muses, having hang up with Vyvy a few minutes ago, eyeing the time gate
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I wonder if the Aquarius can fit through that large portal
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki runs her hand through her blonde hair, it becoming more prominent over the red in it
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Airym? What do you think?"
<Jackieness> <Airym> *scans the portal and compares it toe Aquarius' dimensions*
<Sathen> Kaylin> Why not use the other vessel?
<DeathStar> 6* It would be a tight fit, she said
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Other?
<Sara> <Erica> With Mireille's help it might be possible to fit through
<DeathStar> 6* Mireille is doing yoga near by in her large shirt
<DeathStar> <Yuki> That is true. *she checks her chronowatch* We should meet with the Club. Let them know the Aquarius can fly them in. Plus that word is rather large to go on foot again
<Xan> <Pepper> So you all...have a gate...to the future? What is this life you all lead?!
<Sathen> Kaylin> The exploration vessel that was added to the ship several months ago?
<Seraphna> Cookie> For us? Pretty normal life.
<Xan> <Pepper> Such privelege. 6* She sniffs, wiping at her eye.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> The gate can be a danger, so Riki is in charge of protecting it
<DeathStar> <Yuki> ... I sure hope she remembers to do that
<DeathStar> *pictures kids falling through ti*
<Sara> <Erica> All right, Yu. *she nods* Let's go meet up with them and bring them on.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "While the Aquarius can fit now, that does not eman it will fit the other way."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I want to say Kira and Asarar went through it. We can ask them what it looks like on the other side
<Nyaomi> <Saoirse> She has the vice... I think? When she got barbecued last time she was mewling about quitting though.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *friendly slaps her back* That kitty cat can't quit. After Riki retires, she's President
<DeathStar> *Yuki hums, heading out to go to the Club*
<DeathStar> *Mireille puts on an Eva type suit and salutes Erica* I'm ready to fly us
<Seraphna> * Cookie joins Yuki.
<Xan> <Pepper> So how neat is the future?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> ... you'll see. It's an alternate future right now.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Hopefully we're changing it
<Sara> * Erica salutes back. "Good girl. We've just gotta pick up the others first."
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Club
<DeathStar> 6* The team's doctor has Ylva in a healing cast, repairing her, while he does scans on Luciana's belly
<DeathStar> <Doctor> I say she's probably 8 months pregnant
<DeathStar> *Ymir spoonfeeds Ylva in the corner, humming*
<Seraphna> * Luci nods. "Figured... feel like she's coming any time now."
<Nyaomi> * Ylva groans
<Xan> <Logan> I can go get a needle if you need popped.
<Seraphna> * Luci sticks out her tongue. "Look, I'm happy that I don't have to lay an egg as is."
<Sathen> *Jelly chuckles as he fidgets with his datareader*
<DeathStar> *Cypher steps out of the bathroom, wiping her mouth from throwing up* Whatever was in that sandwich was bad
<DeathStar> *Barry wipes his glass, apologetic*
<Xan> <Logan> Maybe the condiment went bad?
<DeathStar> *The doctor then scans Kira*
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar watches Kira, a bit worried, then tells the others
<Sathen> *Jelly sniffs the air in Cypher's direction then smirks* *softly* Don't think it was the sandwich...
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Those planning on going to the future, pack your equipment
<DeathStar> *Barry takes a bite of the condiment he used, then gags
<DeathStar> *Barry walks off into the back*
<Sara> <Chelsea> I told you not to eat it
<Seraphna> Luci> "At this pregnant, probably smart if I stay behind. I'll watch the fort and practice trying to break Barry's iron mental defenses.
<DeathStar> <Cypher> It was a limited edition mustard
<Seraphna> Luci> One day I will get the pecan pie recipe.
<DeathStar> <Doctor> I saw 2 months pregnant. She should be safe to move if she chosoes to go
<Jackieness> <Kira> *walks out with a pack* "I'm ready."
<DeathStar> (Kira in two locations!)
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar dusts her hands, putting on gloves and so does Cypher, sitting down
<Sara> <Chelsea> I need to go to help the Aquarius... even if it's scary *she frowns*
<Sara> <Chelsea> BonBon *she calls for the mischievous cat*
<DeathStar> <Cypher> I'll be with you. I'll go into the future
<DeathStar> *Bonnie leaps onto Chelsea, hugging* You called? Do you need my massages?
<Sara> <Chelsea> Especially if Cypher is going, I want you to come too.
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> I'm obviously not going anywhere... I'll make sure kids don't fall into the gate or something." She twitches
<DeathStar> <Asarar> *she turns toward the team* Depending on the situation, I imagine we'll be breaking into teams. *Bonnie nods and turns into cat form, riding on her shoulder*
<Sara> <Chelsea> I love you, but you're also my loyal and awesome Familiar, after all!
<Xan> <Logan> A bit like last time?
<DeathStar> 6* At that moment, Riki busts open the door, holding giant plasma guns, armored up and wearing a bandana. She waddles in, showing
<DeathStar> <Riki> Riki is here to lead the charge into the future
<Sara> * Chelsea's jaw slightly drops for a moment before she makes her expression as neutral as she can
<kalonZombie> 6*Jan moves over and takes the guns away from her "No no Riki
<Nyaomi> * Ylva shows her teeth and buzzes her helper bell
<Sathen> *Jelly shrugs as he pulls his pack closer, then looks at Riki* Should I sedate the President before we leave? Looks like she's a bit Gun-Ho/
<DeathStar> *Ymir leans in* Can I help you, sis?
<Seraphna> Luci> Rikiiiii, you're supposed to stay behind with your PBFF!
<Jackieness> <Kira> "The president shouldn't be going."
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Yes. Whap the president.
<DeathStar> *Ymir pulls out a bat and walks over to Riki*
<kalonZombie> <Max> <Should I go to check up on Nell?>
<kalonZombie> 6*Jan gives Ymir a death glare
<DeathStar> <Riki> Aw. But I said I would be proactive
<Seraphna> Luci> <Mmhmm.>
<DeathStar> *Ymir uses the bat to gently whap Riki*
<Seraphna> Luci> "We need to guard their way home. It's very important.":
<DeathStar> <Riki> Owie
<Sara> <Chelsea> I, um... Ma'am. It may be more safely proactive to send some of your best, rather than yourself.
<Seraphna> Luci> "Plus what if I have the baby while Max is gone and my BFF isn't here to help!?"
<DeathStar> <Riki> Hm. Okay. *she beams and waddles over to the counter and orders food*
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Does everyone have their affairs in order?
<DeathStar> *Cypher is hugging on Chelsea, nibbling her neck*
<Xan> <Logan> Always.
<Sara> <Chelsea> I think so...
<Sathen> Jelly> Affairs? Sorry, haven't had a chance to climb into your bed when you're busy with Kira...that door lock is good.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...do you want your testicles served raw or fried?"
<Seraphna> Luci> "I kinda liked him better when he didn't make me seem innocent."
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Impossible.
<kalonZombie> <Max> To be fair you only seem innocent because you got married.
<Sathen> *Jelly smiles* Luci's off her game lately, hormones and all. So I'm trying to keep up the same level of friendly sex-banter.
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> That pervy dragon's never been innocent to me.
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Must be a dragon thing." She mumbles, thinking about Yuki's visitor
<Seraphna> Luci> "I-I'm an innocent, preggers young lady who's at least three times the age of anyone else here."
<DeathStar> *Yuki busts in*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yuki is here!
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And her pal Cookie!"
<DeathStar> *Yuki prances over and sets her and Erica's kid in Luci's arms
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Save me.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Look over little Eri
<kalonZombie> <Max> Wait you're 210?
<Seraphna> * Luci blinks. "I'll call it practice?"
<Seraphna> Luci> "Huh? Nah, 16, what does it look like?"
<Xan> 6* Logan scratches the back of his head, giving a slight nod to Yuki and Cookie.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Anyway, once the Geyze people are heer, we'll head through the time gate. The Aquarius will be our ride. I got a shuttle parked outside
<DeathStar> *Asarar straps her weapons on* Alright, everyone who is coming, get into the shuttle
<DeathStar> *Bonnie paws from the shoulder*
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Yuki
<Xan> <Logan> Roger roger. 6* He grabs his gun and moves for the shuttle.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Barry, watch the bar!"
<Sathen> *Jelly jumps down from the bar top and shoulders his pack, moving for the shuttle*
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Are the spirit terrorists going with you?" She narrows her eyes
<Seraphna> Luci> "Yes, Barry, and lower your defenses. I will get that recipe." *she cradles the baby and stares at Barry, trying to probe thoughts*
<DeathStar> <Barry> I will, ma'am. *he hands Luci a Virgin drik*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yes, Ylva?
<DeathStar> *Ymir fans Ylva*
<Jackieness> <Kira> *heads for the shuttle*
<Nyaomi> (already asked ^)
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I don't know. They are somewhere reading the logs. I'll check with Erica
<DeathStar> <Yuki> They might not want to ride into the future
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> And what, praytell, without you or the summoners or even the Aquarius, will we do if they or more wild spirits appear?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I can summon Undine. If need be I'll tame Chronos
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Not a good chance of that... seeing as we used the whole pool to revive those two."
<DeathStar> *Asarar walks into the shuttle*
<Xan> <Logan> You'll tame the time spirit?
<DeathStar> <Asarar> I'm very persistant
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We have a few summoners coming. Vyvy, Ellie, so on
<DeathStar> *Yuki puts a hat on Ylva and heads out*
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> ... Yu
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yes? We need to hurry. *she turns*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy shuffles a bit and holds out her revolver, looking annoyed
<Nyaomi> *Ylva
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Not like I can use it.
<Xan> 6* Logan takes a seat and buckles himself in.
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> Take care of yourself.
<Seraphna> * Cookie tilts her head, then m oves to the shuttle and gets it ready to go.
<Xan> <Logan> Never understood bonding and summoning. Pretty high level of closeness you have to have for that, right?
<DeathStar> *Yuki takes it* Thanks. *she gives a hug, then moves over, pocketing it. She's more focused on hand to hand but will use it if needbe*
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<Nyaomi> <Ylva> I preloaded some of my defensive spells, as well as two of the augmenting.
<DeathStar> Location: The Hanger
<DeathStar> 6* All three teams find themselves in the hanger. Crowdedly
<DeathStar> 6* Shion sits all serene like, while Asarar and Cypher sit uncomfortably. Shade is with Vyvy and Sylph on Ellie*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "It is ridiculously crowded in here!"
<Seraphna> * Alita plays with Talia's paws and Cookie stretches a bit.
<DeathStar> *Kito and Digo are not seen, but there*
<Sathen> *Kaylin stands stoicly behind Shion, in full gear*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Alright. We have plenty of rooms on the ship.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia is with Alita, eyeballing Max
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> The cute tiger boy is back.
<Xan> <Logan> ...this is a lot of people.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Hee, he too married a dragon."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We're about to fly in. We ask only the bridge crew enter. Chelsea can too since she works on it. The rest of you, there are plenty of space windows to look outside
<Sathen> *Mykel glances sideways at Ceilia*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *she salutes and moves out*
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> So that means it's not technically cheating right~?
<Xan> 6* Pepper looks smug as a bridge crew person.
<Seraphna> * Cookie follows Yuki.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Guess I'll go to the deck with seating to look outside. *she and Cypher move that way*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Not with out me." *moves after Asarar*
<Sathen> *Jelly looks around at everyone, sniffing the air a bit*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Kito, Delgi, let us find a more comfortable place."
<Xan> 6* Simon moves towards the ship's engineering in case he's need to help down there.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy rubs her head, then naturally finds her way toward spirits
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki enters the bridge, turning to Erica
<Sathen> *Kaylin moves to secure the hangar door before heading up to the bridge*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Everyone is onboard. *Mireille is in her glass chamber, nakedish, glowing*
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki takes a seat
<Sara> <Erica> Please do not stare at our dear little spirit *she notes* Let's start getting underway!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *heads off to find said more comfortable place*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I have set the sensors to passive scanning."
<Seraphna> *Cookie nods and sets the ship's course to go through the gate, lining things up with the computers.
<Xan> 6* Logan moves to the observation area. Pepper stands on the bridge, bouncing on the balls of her feet.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You want to fly us through Captain? *she asks as they near the gate* Might be better to do it manually
<Sara> <Erica> I can handle manual piloting, with Mireille's help I'm sure we'll get through
<Sathen> *Kaylin prepares the ships defenses to automatically activate within a second of arriving on the other side of the portal*
<DeathStar> *The joystick rises up in front of Erica. Mireille speaks through the intercomms
<DeathStar> <Mireille> I am keeping the ship's course up with lines. *a line to follow appears on the screen for Erica*
<Sara> * Erica nods
<Sara> <Erica> Roger that, Mirei
<Sara> * Erica looks ready
<DeathStar> *the line itself is purple, while the do not stray out of this oh my god why are you straying out ofg it, is the damage zone*
<DeathStar> Up, Down, Left, Down, Up, Right Left, Down Down Right Left Up down
<DeathStar> 5
<DeathStar> 4
<Sara> durudlruulrdu
<DeathStar> *Erica zooms through without a scrape, and they enter this bizzare psycholydic colors. then the ship begins to shake at the time forces. Chronos steps through, curious at what she feels*
<Sara> * Chelsea blinks, looking at Chronos curiously
<Sathen> Kaylin> Shall I activate the spirit shielding?
<Sara> <Erica> Mireille knows what she's doing, it should be okay
<DeathStar> <Mireille> There is a lot more time turbulance. This area of the future is not open like when we left. Predictions: this alternate future is barely connected to our timeline anymore. Calculations: the alternate future will be sealed away from access soon
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Then we are changing the future. But why the colors?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Increasing structural integrity fields."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Special effects?
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy walks beside Chronos, making a face at the psychadaelic nature. "... Th-That's gonna make me sick.."
<DeathStar> <Mireille> Predictions: people in the alternate future might be trying to keep it connected by changing the past
<DeathStar> 6* As they begin to near what looks like the end of the time flux, suddenly there's a spike. Consoles begin to go blank, as if wiped, and everything begins to go haywire*
<DeathStar> <Mireille> There is a time buble. We are being engulfed.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Engulfed!? What's a time bubble!?
<Xan> <Pepper> Uh oh! Something is wrong!
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I don't knwo!
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Th-That's bad right!?"
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy shakes Chronos, as if she can explain
<Jackieness> <Airym> *moves her fingers over tyhe console* "Attempting to compensate."
<Sathen> *Kaylin activates the spirit shielding* Defenses active!
<DeathStar> <Chronos> A time bubble is bubble of increased, or decreased speed. Like time. Likely we are about to come out anywhere *as she says that, the other two teams vanish from the ship according to sensors*
<DeathStar> *Vyvy poofs*
<Sara> <Erica> That can't be good
<Xan> <Pepper> That girl just vanished!
<DeathStar> <Chronos> She got timed.
<Xan> <Pepper> ...timed
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Wh-What's that mean?"
<kalonZombie> <Max> She got ti- dammit
<DeathStar> (Uh, Max would poof too)
<Seraphna> (Max is in the other two teams.)
<kalonZombie> (God dammit)
<DeathStar> 6* The Aquarius breaks through from the time gate but where they emergy, there is no sign of the time gate. Clearly they are not on the continent of the kids
<DeathStar> *emerge
<DeathStar> <Mireille> *exits her capsule, tired. A lot of the consoles smoking*
<Xan> <Pepper> So I'm sensing a pattern...things always go haywire for you all!
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Well... that's not good at all."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Great and we lost Chelsea.
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Captain, we are suffering extensive damage to systems."
<Sara> <Erica> ...Great... No Chelsea, no Gor...
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I'll check if Little is awake? She should be in Engineering."
<Sathen> *Kaylin looks around the bridge before looking to the scanners and checking the defense systems to ensure they're powered up; scanning the ships immediate area to see what *is* near their location*
<DeathStar> *There is no readings on Little. she is lost...to time*
<Seraphna> * Cookie blinks, feeling out. "Umm... o-on second thought..."
<Seraphna> * Cookie sits, holding her head. "She's gone too."
<DeathStar> 6* Kaylin would bring up the landscape below, they seem to be over a very large continent island*
<Xan> <Pepper> Wait, are we busted up with no engineer!?
<Jackieness> <Airym> "Hypothesis, different time bubbles formed in different parts of the ship."
<Xan> <Pepper> I could go smack things with a tool!
<Sara> <Erica> No -head- engineer, we still have plenty of subordinates
<Sara> <Erica> ...I hope
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I am also fully capable."
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki shoots a satalite up into the air
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I hope we don't run into any of the crystal ships while damaged. *the world map begins to come up*
<Xan> <Pepper> Those crystal things goobers we fought when I first joined?
<Sathen> *Kaylin tries to determine what continent from comparing it to the ships data from when they were fighting the C'En in the future*
<DeathStar> http://www.thealienwars.com/TAW6/Duality/Info/FutureIndex.php *They are on D. If they recall, E was the prison island and A is the continent with the kids. However, the Aquarius probably should land for repairs*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> This seems to be the same place we left.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Maybe the kids are just a long way away now having moved on?"
<DeathStar> *Yuki taps a button, having guards send Denise down to engineering to work on it. *
<Xan> 6* Pepper looks at the map, how different is it to the present kumen map?
<Sathen> Kaylin> Location is the "Isle of the Priests"...some distance from where we expected to arrive.
<Sara> <Erica> I'm going to bring us in for a landing somewhere, as best I can
<Jackieness> <Airym> "It is hard to tell."
<DeathStar> *Very*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Island of Priests. *she shudders, recalling what the others said with that future with the oceans nad the priests*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "That sounds... umm... uncomforterable."
<Sathen> *Kaylin scans for settlements and life signs on the ground in any relative proximity to them*
<Xan> <Pepper> This is Kumen? It looks very different.
<DeathStar> http://www.thealienwars.com/TAW6/Duality/Info/FuturePriests.php
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We have to assume the cities are hostile.
<DeathStar> *she points at the map* But sand sucks too
<Sara> <Erica> Hostile is likely, but... dying is worse
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Can we get a shuttle working? We could fly over sand then."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Shuttles should be fine. Alright, lets land near the city in the desert, Rica?
<Sara> <Erica> Rica? *she blinks but begins taking them in carefully*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Thought I'd try a nickname. Did it make your heart swoon?
<DeathStar> *Yuki paws*
<Sathen> Kaylin> If our information is still correct, the primary city on this continent was the stronghold of the C'En Priests and also where their 'God' lived.
<DeathStar> 6* The landing gears sink into the sand a bit but they are landed. Yuki turns to Airym
<Sara> <Erica> We already know that things have changed
<Xan> <Pepper> Rica sounds exotic.
<Sara> <Erica> The landmass is the same but it's possible that our information is outdated or slightly incorrect
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Or too current. Could have gone back in time too."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Which leaves the question how much time has passed here. Airym, what all do you need to repair the ship?
<DeathStar> <Mireille> We could use energy crystals, part of of the core is damaged. We could use a new core.
<DeathStar> <Mireille> *she turns to Airym if she sees anything else needed*
<Jackieness> <Airym> "I can re-route most systems to backups, but I will need time."
<Sathen> *Kaylin powers up the point-defense drones and ties their control to Airym's console*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> alright. *she hops up* Lets go raid that city
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Kaylin, you want to come? *Mireille is wincing at Denise yelling at engineers s she works*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Okay."
<Jackieness> <Airym> "The Aquarius is more thna a match for their ships, but only when operational."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Hopefully we won't grab inferior parts for you then
<DeathStar> *Yuki heads out the door for the landing pad*
<DeathStar> <Mireille> I want to rest. *flop*
<Sathen> *Kaylin stands, pulling her assault rifle from her back as she follows after Yuki*
<Seraphna> * Cookie follows. "I'll just pick the ones that look most like Mom would want them. Easy."
<Nyaomi> * Saoirse pets Mireille's head. "Then rest, kiddo."
<Xan> <Pepper> Ooooh exporing the future. Futurenaut Pepper on the moooove! 6* She moves after Yuki
<Sara> <Erica> Coming with, Saoir? We might get to knock some heads.
<Nyaomi> <Saoirse> Yep. Head's not boiling today.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I would say we should bring Denise along
<DeathStar> <Yuki> She could curse run people off
<DeathStar> *Yuki hohohohos*
<Sara> * Erica grins at Saoirse as she starts moving along
<Nyaomi> * Saoirse grins, hair tied back tightly, since it's been getting longer and unruly while having downtime.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Unknown Location?
<DeathStar> 6* The academy teams warp appears in a grasslanded area. Sadly with no ship they will be hard pressed to find which continent they are on
<DeathStar> *Shade and Sylph look dizzy, while Shion looks around*
<Seraphna> * Alita peers around, blinking. "What... how?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "...where are we? What happened?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Time BS, I'm sure. And of course I was just touching the time spirit, but no dice.
<Sathen> *Mykel looks around the area as well, his right hand immediately going to his sword handle.
<Sara> * Ellie lands face-first in the grass
<Sara> <Ellie> Erf
<Xan> 6* Simon blinks a few times, slowly peering around. Confused.
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia pulls out a dish from her clevage, a pin, grabs a leaf or blade of glass, casts a water spell into the dish, puts the pin on the foliage, and puts that in the water
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks, grabbing Ellie one-handed and lifts her out of the grass
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I'm about to find north, at least
<Seraphna> Alita> "Why do you have a dish in your cleavage?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *peers at the horizon*
<DeathStar> *As it goes north, when they look up they see what looks like what might be a large city a few miles away*
<Sara> <Ellie> I always just assumed you two carry everything there *she frowns*
<Sara> * She glances at Ceilia's bust with some annoyance
<Seraphna> * Alita blinks and points to her bag.
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> What, you don't use your clevage as a bag of holding?
<DeathStar> *Sylph wobbles about, with Shade crossing her arms* It might be dangerous for me and Sylph to be seen
<Sara> * Ellie looks down at he flat chest
<Seraphna> Alita> "Mostly a bed for Talia."
<Sathen> Mykel> We could always fly there, save time.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I myself have an ample... bosom... but i cannot randomly place an absurd number of items there."
<Sara> <Ellie> Wouldn't that draw more than a little attention? *she stows Sylph under her hat*
<Xan> <Simon> ...we should move.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Shade, hide in my shadow, then.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Yes, we must press on."
<DeathStar> *Shade nods, then vanishes*
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> Well you're not trying hard enough. 6*She says, pouring everything out, putting the pin back where it was, and sliding the dish into her clevage again
<DeathStar> <Shion> Then lets go north and toward that city
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Our arrival may not be unnoticed."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Maybe it will have maps
<DeathStar> 6* Shion begins to trudge along, with Kita and Diego running ahead*
<Seraphna> Alita> "Guess we do need our bearings." *she walks along*
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia walks with Shion
<Xan> <Simon> We should be careful, we don't know what's changed here. 6* He walks along with Shion
<Sathen> Mykel> Guess we walk then. *follows along after checking to see that everyone is up and coming*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We must assume that the C'en are likely still in control."
<Sara> <Ellie> Your orders, Captain?
<Sara> * She salutes Sasha
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Do they still know... us?" She refers to being wanted last time and imprisoned most of it
<Sathen> Mykel> With the return of Chronos, whom we don't know much about, I guess that the C'En could have taken control of her and used her to change things in their favor.
<Xan> <Simon> If so then we'll have a hard time of it.
<DeathStar> <Shion> We'll see. And that is a good point. That must mean there is a Chronos in this era unfound by us.
<DeathStar> <Shion> But they also hate spirits.
<DeathStar> 6* As they begin to near the city, it looks like it has large fortifications and a gate. There are soldiers all around on the top of the wall, with high tech weapons
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "They rule this timeline, they are probably working overtime to try to keep this timeline connected to our own. If it breaks loose, thehn they lose. They will not have the ability to influence the past anymore."
<Sathen> Mykel> Atleast officially, they could still use them... *looks at the wall, soldiers and weapons as they approach*
<Xan> <Simon> Did the C'En have that type of weaponry before?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *squits her eyes to make out the details*
<DeathStar> 6* They look to be soldiers, and are wearing some sort of suit that protects them, their faces hidden. Shion turns to Sasha
<DeathStar> <Shion> Should we see if we can talk our way in?
<Sathen> Mykel> If I remember right...they should follow your orders there Headmistress. Unless things have changed.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "If all else fails, we could convince them that we are just travelers."
<Xan> <Simon> I'm certainly in favor of keeping it diplomatic for as long as possible.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Are you talking about my mothers? They were kept locked up and held in regard. Me, I had that other. Hm. I guess I could fake being her
<Xan> <Simon> That's certainly an option...if that aspect has not changed.
<Sathen> Mykel> Something to keep in our back pocket if its needed.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We should also consider that this is not a C'en controlled city."
<DeathStar> 6* Shion walks up, looking sinister, as if she is here for an inspection. The soldiers peer down, jerk at seeing Shion and order the gates raised
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy looks sheepish, mumbling. "I'm a summoner, besides the spirits themselves I'm kind of enemy number two..."
<Xan> <Simon> Guess that still works. 6* He mumbles, walking behind Shion like a guard.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Or it is and they are now scared to death. Entourage forward." *starts walking*
<Seraphna> * Alita walks in quietly with the others.
<DeathStar> *Shion walks in, peering around. The city seems to be a warrior city, with some civilians living there, likely to serve the warriors that live in the city. All the houses look to be fortified and made of strong materials*
<Sathen> *Mykel follows along taking position to Shion's left and back a couple steps* Wings and Tails hidden.
<Sara> < Ellie peers around quietly but tries not to look too out of place
<DeathStar> 6* A soldier with some rank emblems on their shoulders walks up, kneeling deferred like
<DeathStar> <Soldier> I had heard you had been killed, my lady. It is good to see you again
<kalonZombie> 6*Ceilia blinks at that
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sticks close to Shion, but a bit behind cowed
<Xan> 6* Simon glances to Shion at that, then the soldiers.
<DeathStar> <Shion> .. I need a house, emptied, for me and my group. And I want a war map of the area. I want to see what the situation is like. *she tries bluffing*
<DeathStar> *thankfully she has 7 charisma and the soldier nods, and orders the closest house emptied. The people inside are driven out for now and waves them in*
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> You go girl.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Shhhh."
<DeathStar> 6* The soldier turns toward Ceilia
<DeathStar> <Shion> I will punish her later. *she walks inside*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy quickly slips in and finds a corner to occupy, exhaling
<Seraphna> * Alita moves in, Talia in her cleavage, hidden.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves into the house*
<Xan> 6* Simon clicks his heels together once and marches after Shion.
<DeathStar> <Shion> *a map is put on the table, the soldier sweeping all the silverware off* Leave us. *the man exits and closes the door*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Ceilia... what were you thinking?"
<DeathStar> <Shion> Lets hope we got a few before they learn the truth
<Sathen> *Mykel looks at the people who have been driven out, turning and standing watch at the door* <Let
<Sathen> Mykel> <Let's keep this open and let info relay love>
<DeathStar> *Shion begins to spread the map. An x marks their location. They are on Island B, the capital. The A island seems to be all red, unlike the others. Either it's been destroyed, or the kids have taken it over with the capital located there
<DeathStar> <Shion> ... hm
<DeathStar> <Shion> I think I was told the warrior caste are in charge of this
<DeathStar> *there is also some red in the C mainland*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We need to find out the situation there..." *indicates island a* "...without cluing them in that we are out of the loop."
<Xan> <Simon> So should we move towards the red? See what happened there? I'm not sure how else to meet up with the children.
<Sara> <Ellie> We could explain that Shion has been recovering in seclusion and needs an update on the situation?
<DeathStar> <Shion> We would need a hip of some sort.
<DeathStar> *ship
<Sathen> *Mykel stands quietly outside, watching the C'En soldiers and anybody else that comes nearby*
<DeathStar> *Shion muses* We are in the warrior capital. They might have a lot of weapons here
<Seraphna> Alita> "I'd say we get everything we can from here then go."
<DeathStar> <Shion> Perhaps we should try to cripple them before we go
<DeathStar> *Sylph peeks out of the hat*
<Xan> <Simon> We should definitely do that.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Alita. Ceilia
<DeathStar> <Shion> Which of you can fly?
<Sathen> Mykel> <Question is, are we able to fight here like we normally can?>
<kalonZombie> <Ceilia> I can fly.
<DeathStar> <Shion> I want you sneak out and do aerial sweeps. I want to learn our terrain
<DeathStar> <Shion> Make note of anything worthwhile
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Shion, before we know where to perform any sabotage, we need to know the facilities here."
<kalonZombie> 6*She nods, moving to go do so, looking for a discrete window to hop out of
<DeathStar> <Shion> I agree. That's why the aerial sweep. Me and one other will demand to inspect the facilities. The rest of you, learn what you can from the civilians
<DeathStar> <Shion> Learn what has happened. I am thinking a lot of time has passed
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Um.. Shion..
<DeathStar> <Shion> Yes?
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't think it wise for me to just walk around
<DeathStar> <Shion> Of Ellie got away without detectors with Sylph in her hat, you should be fine with Shade in the shadow
<DeathStar> *if
<Seraphna> * Alita bites her lower lip a bit, letting Ceilia be the one to go for now. Talia sneaking off with her.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> it's not that. I was already imprisoned in this time once
<Xan> <Simon> I could move about and eavesdrop, see what I can find out.
<DeathStar> <Shion> Hm. You can hide here if you feel that much. Who plans to go with me?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Shion, I can accompany you."
<DeathStar> *Shion nods to Sasha and heads for the door* The rest of you, learn what you can.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *turns and moves after Shion*
<Xan> <Simon> Good luck.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Island D
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki stares at the city they have entered
<Seraphna> * Cookie also stares.
<Sara> <Erica> You okay, Yu?
<DeathStar> 6* Priests move around with cloaks and masks. There seems to be no civilians
<Xan> <Pepper> ...so creepy. 6* She mumbles, with a shudder
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I just got a feeling like someone is dancing on my grave. *she pulls out some tattered bedsheets, weapping them around and hiding her face*
<Sathen> *Kaylin has stowed her weapon before they entered the city, looking around at all of the priests*
<DeathStar> *Yuki offers some sheets to the others*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We don't want to stand out.
<Sara> * Erica accepts, but wonders what Yu meant by the grave thing
<DeathStar> *Yuki turns to Denise*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Try not to curse at the priests.
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and makes herself up in sheets.
<Xan> 6* Pepper mimics the bedsheet thing, frowning.
<Sathen> *Kaylin accepts and follows suit*
<kalonZombie> <Denise> That's like asking me not to fucking breathe. 6*She says quietly
<DeathStar> *Yuki walks in. The priests giving off strange energy vibes. Will they find anything? Next time for this group too*
<DeathStar> -Final Shift-
<DeathStar> 6* Location: A
<DeathStar> 6* Asarar and Cypher lay weakly on the ground, Cypher throwing up
<Sara> * Chelsea holds Cypher's hair
<Jackieness> <Kira> "Urrrr... what happened...?"
<Xan> 6* Logan holds his head, sitting still with his hand over his eyes.
<Sathen> *Jelly holds his head and groans, sitting on the ground* Remind me to file a complaint with the Prez about the lack of safety belts...
<DeathStar> *Cypher sits up, her face looking a little fuller. Other than she looks normal. Kira is the same way, a fuller face. And looking like her stomach is a little bigger. Hard to tell with her loose clothes*
<DeathStar> *Bonnie twitches on her back, merowling before she recovers. Up ahead is the capital the kids took over in the last session of the final future arc*
<kalonZombie> 6*Max shoots up "I'm up! I'm up! I'm not late for school because I'm up!
<DeathStar> 6* And figures are approaching*
<kalonZombie> <Max> ...Want I should hit them with a big hammer?
<Xan> 6* Logan slowly pushes himself to his feet.
<DeathStar> <Asarar> Lets wait to see who they are. *she sits up, tired*
<Xan> <Logan> Only if they hit us first.
<Jackieness> <Kira> "... ... ...asarar... I think I'm more pregnant than I was ten minutes ago..."
<DeathStar> <Asarar> ... *she jerks her head and checks her stomach, there is definitely a bit of a baby bump* The time jump must have sped our ages up some
<DeathStar> 6* The figures step into the light. It's the kids, looking at least 4 years older than last time. Cherie is there, with the future Cypher beside her, since she stayed. Cherie looking 15ish, I think she was 10 or 12 last time. There is also Seniga looking in her early 20s, and Nell, looking older*
<DeathStar> <Future Cypher> Holy shit. They came
<Xan> <Logan> ...
<Xan> 6* Bix looks the same but whirrs in delite.
<Xan> <Bix> Hello!
<DeathStar> *her hand is on Cherie. Cypher eyes her other self, baffled, since Cypher if you recall never interraged*
<Jackieness> <Kira> "...and I feel sick..."
<Seraphna> * Nell waves a bit. "Well they made it, told you they would. Hey Dad!"
<Sara> * Chelsea stares
<DeathStar> <Seniga> You all are finally back.
<Seraphna> * Nell's aging has slowed, but that means she already looks older than Luci now, still.
<kalonZombie> <Max> Hey Nelly.
<DeathStar> -To Be Continued-
<kalonZombie> 6*He walks up to her and gives her a tiger hug, which is like a bear hug, but bigger
<DeathStar> The preludes, and some of the part 4 crossover
<DeathStar> Is setting up the story. So we'll be jumping between the 3 groups
<DeathStar> Part 1 will have them finally unite
<DeathStar> Session 172: Children and Parents (September 17th)
<DeathStar> Session 173: Crystal Future (September 24th)
<DeathStar> Session 174: Forbidden Knowledge Part I
<Sara> But September 17th is today
<DeathStar> Yeah. That was how I kept track of it when it was one day, 2 sessions
<DeathStar> I left it there to make sure I'm keeping point. I didn't want not to hit the anniversary date too late
Session Close: Sun Sep 17 21:54:23 2017
