<DeathStar> 1
<DeathStar> Location: The Past on the PAX. 10-592. Month 3. They been on the PAX for about a week, and have discovered Dark One/Human hybrids, much like something the old team ran into long ago in TAW4 led by Scar, though they apparantly were destroyed, here they are, working on removing key members on the PAX one by one and seemingly putting stuff in them (cont)
<DeathStar> 6* It is also theorized the same shapeshifters are likely behind the events in present day with the main races. Yuki is working to observe them so when the team goes back to the Prime universe they can have some knowledge, though how they get back is still a big question. Since Cheryl has the Prime Reality power at this point and time and Centerpoint is well hidden
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki flips through her datapad in Kane's suite
<Seraphna> * Cookie yawns and peeks at it.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane watches his feeds, 1A, the Bridge, the Core and Athena's concert hall being the main ones.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos looks tired still, having had to do a blood transfusion with Vyvy to get the bad out, the bad being traces amounts of dark one...stuff.
<DeathStar> 6* Ao begins to eyes the bridge and begins to search it
<DeathStar> 6* Looking angry
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Uh oh.:"
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pauses, leaning forward slightly.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Define 'uh-oh'."
<Xanatos> <Kane> I wonder if a scan has picked up my device?
<DeathStar> *Ao mouths something to someone on the camera and motions them, as they check near the camera*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Ao hates both being watched and anyone messing with her bridge."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> This is tiring..!" She takes off a VR headset. "I think I'm going to retire, taking the top position int he colliseum has been a nonstop line of challenges..."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And if she has Leyaeh track whoever put the camera in... well..."
<DeathStar> 6* Ao at this point looks a lot more energetic than in the present, her hair redder
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Shoudl have labeled the camera 'Erevis' funtim camera.'"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Since I installed the camera there's a chance she might think it's just that...but I doubt it.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I am sure CHIP does most of the sensor and watching as is. Anything foreign might be pinged
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Leyaeh has something close to a psychic ability sometimes when she has something to trace with... it's not, it's spirit energy, but still. Xan being the one to do it though might be a big help."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes, I didn't think they would stay hidden for long, but I did try to put in systems to slow him down. I'm pleased they've lasted this long.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Leyaeh is a spirit?
<DeathStar> *Ao grabs the camera and eyes it, as if trying to see who is in it. At this point in time she is likely a hard ass solo bitch still*
<DeathStar> *Then crushes it*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Ok, we need to start acting before Ao tears apart the ship looking for us."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Famfrit. Here our people learned some interesting abilities with spirit energy though. Uh oh."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Well at least the concert hall might not be found, it's still low.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hm. Each camera takes 4 days to make...and she just crushed it...
<DeathStar> <Ren> Though I bet she will find the 1A
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We should be mindful... we can't have them know about us or we might mess up the timeline."
<DeathStar> *Yuki turns to eye her history*
<Xanatos> <Xan> Oh they probably already know.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Th-That's not good!"
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "There was our Kane's recent encounter with Erevis."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Xan is attacked when the Guardians join the Suisen Empire, which is tomorrow
<DeathStar> <Yuki> The switch is likely then
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... Well she sounds pretty amazing if she's not a spirit and can locate people like a mindreader!
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> We going to interfere, Yu?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Is the core meltdown around the same time?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> After that, Kellin goes missing in a shuttle accident, then Kane in his shuttle in a few days, which you all apparantly saved in time thing
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Yes, at the same time
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Comething about sniffing out old spirit residue. Anyways... they did get saved so would it be smart to interfere?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> We already interfered with Marcus because the group wasn't around.
<Seraphna> *Something
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We're going to observe, Vyvy
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "From the report, I beleive Ren was there on the Kane rescue.
<Jackieness> "
<Xanatos> 6* Kane muses to himself and rubs his chin.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Not necessarily, Xan. I have Marcus on ice in a shuttle. Unaware
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Old spirit... residue..?
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sniffs at herself, making a puzzled expression, then jerks.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Anyway, we just need to avoid Ao for a day
<Seraphna> * Cookie shrugs. "I'm new to Spirit stuff myself."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Hey, you two said there was someone changing shapes, right?
<DeathStar> <Ren> A new hybrid race, yes
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I wonder if I could 'see' them
<Xanatos> <Xan> I don't know the details but I know Dias saved Marcus. I just know we haven't seen Dias around.
<Nyaomi> * She points at her weird eye.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Maybe he steal the shuttle we put him on."
<DeathStar> *Ren muses* With that high five?
<DeathStar> <Ren> Was that in the present or the past?
<Xanatos> <Xan> No the high five was me.
<Seraphna> COokie> "That was how they brought back Xan."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "In the present."
<Xanatos> <Xan> SUPPOSEDLY. But we know that's probably not true.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy looks around, sulking.
<DeathStar> <Yuki *pats Vyvy*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So we just hav eto make sure they get saved?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> I think that high five likely didn't bring you back
<DeathStar> <Ren> They probably just teleported you back in
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Ok, let's review... what do we know about the hybrids?"
<Xanatos> <Kane> ...I don't actually remember anythign specific even though I experienced it. That's odd. I know I wasn't around and then I was. I know the kids were responsible.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Or do WE teleport him back to that time?"
<Xanatos> 6* Xan nods to Ren in agreement.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy slips an overcoat on she got while out with Yuki and Ren, then starts to slip out.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Humans kidnapped by Dark Ones
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Given their DNA and transformed, used as tools
<DeathStar> <Yuki> After Dark Ones died, they were set free, used their powers as they wanted
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Super strong, fast, and can transform like Billy
<Xanatos> <Xan> We thought they were all taken out because along with...Scar was his name, right? But either there's more around, or this is their children.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Now that I won't get lost, I'm going to uh... get lost and see if I find any strange people with two appearances!
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Right. In theory, we should be able to detect the dark energy in them."
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... be careful
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy thumbs up to Ren, grinning, then heads out.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> In theory but grandma Cheryl and them never did easily
<Xanatos> <Kane> It requires a close DNA examination. Much more subtle than simply using a scanner.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "There's always a missed survivor somewhere."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I think they can supress it
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Hmmm... wonder if a natural, reformed Dark One could sense them out."
<Seraphna> Cookie> You mean Billy?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I'm not sure Jen's kids are around yet in the timeline... so that leaves Billy."
<Xanatos> <Xan> No one's kids are around yet. This is before all that.
<DeathStar> *Vyvy comes around a 1 month pregnant Megumi roaming around*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I'm not leaving out our time. We can't itnerfere too much here anyway, so I'm strategizing for the long term."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I wasn't born yet." *she shrugs* "Noooo idea."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks, scurrying to be a bit hidden in the crowd for no seeming reason, watching
<DeathStar> *a voice speaks for those still in the room* <Voice> Interfering too much is what he wants
<Seraphna> * Cookie squeaks.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane tenses, hand going to his hoslter.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren turns so fast she falls off the bed
<Xanatos> 6* Xan also reaches for his gun, teeth clenched.
<DeathStar> *The pregnant Megumi goes around looking for Dias to fight with*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Dramatic Voice introduction!"
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy obliviously chuckles, then combs crowds.
<DeathStar> *Yuki turns and standing there is Fate, her white hair longer than last time and red eyes glowing a bit, wearing a cloak*
<Xanatos> <Kane> You speak as if that is not what you want.
<Seraphna> Cookie> *blinks and looks at the hair* "...Has it been a while?"
<DeathStar> 6* Fate doesn't respond to that, then looks at Cookie
<Seraphna> Cookie> "It's just... your hair is longer, that takes a while to do... at least for normal people."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "What does he gain by us breaking things?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Well presumably if we interfere enough we can reduce our own people in the fight by making sure they never existed."
<DeathStar> <Fate> It has been some time. Yes.
<DeathStar> *she turns to Josepine* If you change a bit, it might turn out fine. You might end up back at Yddgrasil
<DeathStar> <Fate> If you change too much, you might end up with a bad end to this turn again. Another 100 bad ends
<DeathStar> <Fate> He will win
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We're the good end then... we need it to happen so that we reach as far as we've gotten?"
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Hmmm... so if we break the system, then he will finally be able to press the reset button, right?"
<DeathStar> *Fate turns to go*
<Xanatos> <Xan> He will finally get the tree.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "And re-write reality to his design."
<Xanatos> <Xan> And whatever power that means.
<DeathStar> <Fate> Yes. I just came to warn you
<Xanatos> 6* Kane nods once, watching Fate curiously.
<DeathStar> <Fate> A small ripple might be fine, but it's reaches can be far reaching too
<DeathStar> *She fades out*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Butterfly theory."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Interesting, he must have sent everyone into timelines to screw us all over."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Why defeat the enemy you can make defeat themselves?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Maybe we should step back and do nothing. Let it all play out exactly how it plays out.
<DeathStar> *Yuki frowns, while Ao stalks by Vyvy with scurity*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So... if this is all true than we've already started creating ripples."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Then we learn nothing too
<DeathStar> <Ren> Or maybe we're meant to interfere a bit
<DeathStar> <Ren> I remember that Erevis was in a time loop
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We remain in the shadows then and learn what we can, till we can make it out of here... and someone should get Vyvy back here."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Just the knowledge of the dark one hybrids is more than we had before. It'll all be for nothing if Destiny gets his way.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Ok... when we arrived does anyone remember anything here different than it should have been?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> Well, it's a bit before my time
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Me too."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> My datapad seems to be on track for the same. 592 is s confusing as far as years go
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It lists so much chaos
<Xanatos> <Kane> I don't recall SPoC being around, but since she works for the Cartel is could be that she and I just passed at different times.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "It's why he sent us here."
<Xanatos> (it)
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Chaos that set up on the right track, despite being chaos, but enough to make us want to stop it and change things."
<Xanatos> <Xan> I lost pretty much everything at this time. I still think we should do nothing.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "This is a perfect shatterpoint."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Plenty of opportunities to make us want to intervene."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Lets track SPoC for no
<DeathStar> <Ren> Lets get too it
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* Grabbing Vyvy, they track SpoC, who is eating a sandwich. Now played by Dustin Maday
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina's bar partially closed right now
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Erh... can I help you?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Fate visited us
<DeathStar> <Ren> So we want to stick together
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "And try not to change anything more than we already have."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... One of the two villains visited?
<DeathStar> <Ren> She gave a warning
<DeathStar> <Yuki> About what Destiny is planning
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> One of the two people who were standing side by side and flung us through time
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC takes a bite of her sandwich as she stops in front of an art store, peering through a window in to it
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And if you recall she never actually did anything villanous so far."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Warned us... and... we're taking it at face value
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm not saying you're wrong, but she also didn't do anything to stop him, either. And if she were against his plans, why would they be hanging out together?
<DeathStar> <Ren> If you want to do the opposite of what she said, go on a rampage, punch Megumi in the stomach so your grandmother isn't born
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You're thinking ill of one person for another's actions. With her advice she techncially didn't need to even talk to us to succeed."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Um.. no. I'm questioning something perfectly logical.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> People with different plans don't scheme together.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You're assuming stuff still."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> It's true. We don't know why they are together.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan glances around, keeping an eye out for security.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... And you're assuming she's virtuous
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> What's the difference?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Maybe she has her own plans, maybe he has power over her
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC steps back from the store window and starts moving again
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Maybe there's a third one she fears. Who knows
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "She's undermining him, and we know he's the enemy."
<Nyaomi> * She frowns. "Okay. Let's run with that."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Just keep thinking. Don't give me shit for mine." She sighs.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I'm assuming I don't know enough to make a judgement and considering the advice for what it is, rather than who gave it to me. Interefering with what we know should be in the past is always a bad idea."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't think any of us were planning a time-changing rampage
<DeathStar> *a figure begins to follow SPoC*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I haven't spotted any shapeshifters yet, thanks for asking." She huffs.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Well let's follow the anomoly for now."
<DeathStar> *Ren rubs her head*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "And her tail..."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Eyes up."
<Seraphna> * Cookie motions over.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Mmm-hmm... I see them too."
<DeathStar> *the figure turns into Shiva when SPoC isn't looking*
<DeathStar> *a brief dark aura when the shift happens*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Spotted one?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Gimme the word and I'll scramble it's mind and stun it." *she says softly**
<Xanatos> 6* Kane tilts his head
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...what do we know about SPoC?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Enough that this isn't good?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Not much. She was just extra muscle.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Uh, I think she's in the Cartel or something. Haven't heard from her in decades
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Um, found one.
<DeathStar> <Shiva> *she calls SPoC's names* We need to talk SPoC. *she calls behind her*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "One of the forces acting wacky in our own time."
<Xanatos> <Kane> This may be why, they got to SPoC and then worked their way up
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC stops and turns around. 1"Shiva." 6She tilts her head slightly then nods to her. 1"What do you need?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I say we stop this and pull this lady with us then."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I thought we weren't interfering...
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I can always make her forget."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "What Vyvy said."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "She said we could a little, if this saves the Cartel in our time... isn't that good?"
<DeathStar> *Shiva looks around* Not here. They are forces listening. I have rented a room not traced to the Cartel. *she begins to lead SpoC away*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We're losing our window
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The Cartel is an organization, that's a little?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Besides we already saved one replacement."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Keep on them."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Look, debate now and let her die or act, choose."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Look, be consistent. -_-
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC nods to Shiva and starts moving with her
<Seraphna> * Cookie sighs and moves to follow.
<Xanatos> <Xan> TO be fair we interfered with Marcus before the warning.
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... grrrrr.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy breaks from them and leaps over a railing, running toward the two retreating
<Seraphna> Cookie> *focuses and brings everuyone into a Team Coordination* <Look, this way we don't have to give ourselves away talking, VYVY, take it slow!>
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "And there we are."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Oh look, just like her great Xanpa. 6* He says about Vyvy as he moves after the two.
<DeathStar> *Shiva leads SpOC into a room, about to shut the door*
<DeathStar> *Ren and Yuki hurry to catch up*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> <We don't have time to take it slow if we're doing this." She springs and kicks into the door as it's closing
<Seraphna> * Cookie hurries after.
<Xanatos> <Kane> We'll never get through this without interferring. 6* He mumbles as he moves.
<DeathStar> 6* Everything goes gray and twists, and nausea washes over them. Much like in TAW1 for the other team
<DeathStar> 6* Then things snap bcak in place
<DeathStar> 6* The shapeshifter falls back
<Seraphna> Cookie> <That... cannot be good.>
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I think we just broke something..."
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC jerks at Vyvy coming in and she pulls out a gun, aiming it at her. 1"Shiva are you ok?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...we changed time.
<DeathStar> <Shiva> These...are those forces.... They are here to assainate me
<Seraphna> Cookie> <We can still reverse this if we act quickly.>
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't know who Shiva is, but this isn't Shiva..." She leaps, almost animal-like for the shapeshifter. "Don't let her get away!"
<DeathStar> *she rises*
<DeathStar> *Yuki hurries* I guess we have to bring SpOC with me into the future
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC firse a stun shot at Vyvy in response.
<Seraphna> Cookie> <Or Vyvy can ignore the warning sign and rush into it.>
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy tries to get ahold of 'Shiva' before she's tranquilized by the shot, having not draw any kind of weapon
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and sighs, she holds out a hand and uses Scramble Slam on SPoC to stun her.
<DeathStar> *a beep alert is heard at the shot as Vyvy goes down. Ren and Yuki bust in and try to tackle Shiva*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan glances up at the alert
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC is hit by it and drops to her knees, then onto her front
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "We need to evac before station security swarms form the shot detection!"
<Seraphna> Cookie> <That's the ship's warning system when shots are fired. We need to do this fast.>
<DeathStar> 6* The shape shifter rises and throws Yuki and Ren into the wall, their arms growing larger
<Seraphna> * Cookie moves over and disarms SPoC, then restrains her till they can explain.
<Xanatos> <Xan> We have MAYBE 5 minutes. 6* He keeps close to the door to block it.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy fights to shake off the stun, wincing, trying not to let go, being a leg anchor at best
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Pull out, full evac!"
<DeathStar> 6* The shifter turns into a Ridiraium on Vyvy, making her lift up
<Seraphna> * Cookie holds out a hand and covers the enemy in a lvl. 2 Chi Field to slow it down.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pulls on two things over his knuckles, he pauses at the Rid and stares, his electric knuckles not really going to do much tot hat.
<Seraphna> * Cookie then expands it to speed everyone else up. (Max)
<DeathStar> <Ridarium> I do not know who you all are.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *leaps in to try to pull Vyvy out of the shifter's range*
<DeathStar> *Yuki and Ren back up as it smashes a table*
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...fucking Rid. We don't have the fire power to bring that down.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We have several Dragoons, weren't we made for that?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You want to have a drag out fight right now?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Forget about it! We need to get out of here now!"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "No, hold on."
<Xanatos> <Xan> WE have maybe a minute left!
<Seraphna> * Cookie burns a Stamina and uses Scramble Slam on the 'Ridarium' to stun it.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "I'm calling it! Emergency withdrawal NOW!"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Wait, I think my watch is broken.
<DeathStar> *it grabs part of the table and throws it at them*
<DeathStar> *It stumbles, slowing. Yuki and Ren run for it as it slows*
<DeathStar> *pulling Vyvy and SPoC8
<Seraphna> * Cookie grabs SPoC and slides away from the table, running for it.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *turns and makean escape*
<DeathStar> <Ridiarium Shifter> I WILL REMEMBER YOUR FACES
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy taps into her indomitable and brings out her hand, focusing then calls down her smite onto the Ridarium
<Xanatos> 6* Xan backs out quickly, Kane tilts his head then moves after the others.
<DeathStar> 6* Everything goes grayer at the hit
<Seraphna> Cookie> <Errrr...>
<Xanatos> 6* Xan pauses and urks, trying to hold back a puke.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...that bastard is not supposed to DIE!"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Grey thing sucks, let's stop doing that.
<DeathStar> *as they get out, a few minutes later Ao and the others arrive inside*
<Xanatos> 6* Xan holds his stomach and jogs after the others.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> That thing was huge, you're telling me I can one-shot it!?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I'm hoping it survived, because new issue, they find a dead, murdered Ridarium on the PAX. What then?"
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki holds SpoC and peers inside as Ao and the others investigate the room, apparantly not finding a body, but Ao holds pieces of a table and some dark acidy blood*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... By the way, what was that thing, it looked like a pile of rocks was about to punch me..
<DeathStar> <Ao> I want this anyalzed
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...Ridarium. They dislike squishies like us."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Ridarium, they're what the Dragoons were originally made to fight."
<DeathStar> *Ao begins to have pieces of the blood off to the lab, peering around. Apparantly it escaped*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> They got some of the blood. I wonder if that's bad
<Xanatos> 6* Kane makes a face
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Probably is."
<Xanatos> <Kane> We should steal that sample, or ruin it somehow.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't know, but it didn't die. I can see some of the darkness it puts off trailing away
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We could try and contaminate the sample."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Now... I thought we weree just going to follow and see what happened... not break the system."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy shrugs at Josephine
<DeathStar> *Yuki eyes Josephine and the others*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I was fighting to follow and observe and somehow it turned into rushing into a room and busting up a joint, but you know... we can't take it back now."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> We're not in sync at all. You say listen to the lady and don't change things, then start squawking about saving someone and bringing her with us, but then not doing it, but then saying we're running out of time
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I'm just worried about any vendettas it might have. If it remembers Josephine and us, will it strike later?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Before "we" in the past know
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So... what do we do?"
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "No kidding... with my luck, I'll probably drop dead when we get back to the future."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Yeah if we don't take it out, it could hunt down Josephine and kill her.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Then make a decision." She frowns.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Or you'll make it for us again?"
<Xanatos> <Xan> Don't be a little shit.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Then we kill it after it's done with it's mission
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I can track it. Do you want me to hunt it down, or make Biscuit here scramble her brains?
<Xanatos> <Xan> I'll punish you.
<DeathStar> <Ren> For now lets wake SPoC
<DeathStar> <Ren> And get that blood sample
<DeathStar> -Spinning SpoC-
<Seraphna> * Cookie sighs and nods, then touches SPoC to bring her out of it.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki leans over SPoC in a room, since they're in the open
<Seraphna> * Cookie does it then.
<DeathStar> <Ren> I wonder if she'll kill us when we have to tell ehr she has to come with us to the future
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Dunno, the alternative was being killed back in that room and letting a Dark One take over her life."
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC's hand moves to her head as she rubs it, her eyes opening up slowly. 1"What happened....?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm not letting her kill me." She mutters, sitting in a corner and holding her knees. She's been avoiding Xanatos since the episode.
<DeathStar> *Ren rubs her head*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You were about to get doppleganged by a Dark One."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "We... had to get you out of there."
<Xanatos> 6* Kane kneels in front of SPoC and stares at her for a moment.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Were you around when we were fighting Scar?
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC looks at Cookie before Kane pops in his face. 1"Kane?"
<Seraphna> * Cookie looks somewhat familiar, since one of her mothers is a Zephyr.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan offers Vyvy a popsicle, sitting by her.
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> Scar? Yes I recall him. 6She stands up now, looking around confused. 1"Who are your friends? And...Shiva? What happened to her?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "The good news is that wasn't actually Shiva."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So she's safe as can be."
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC looks at Kane since she knows him. 1"Is this true?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> *to Josephine* I contacted Caduceus so we can get into the lab
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Who wants to go play with corrupted blood?
<Xanatos> <Kane> It is.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I can... I got my training in PAX's medical lab."
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I see. 6She looks over at Vyvy then bows slightly. 1"I apologize for shooting you."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "So you know the facilities."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks at Xanatos.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Don't worry about it... it didn't hurt or anything.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "At least what they are 30 years from now. But Jennifer is a creature of habit and didn't really change it much from Caduceus' setup."
<Xanatos> <Xan> So? These taste good.
<Xanatos> (Oh my bad. Ignore)
<Xanatos> 6* Xan bounces it up and down in front of her.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I at least know what the DNA testing equipment looks like and what the samples should be marked as."
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> If you could explain to me what is going on, Kane. It'd be appreciated.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "So we get Caduceus' help and Cookie knows the facilities and tech. Do you need anyone else with you?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Wh-What are you doing." She eyes Xanatos.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes, well, it's a long story. It will sound quite insane. But... 6* he begins to get into it, all of it.
<DeathStar> *Yuki goes with whoever to the medical lab*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Lets do it
* Seraphna follows Yuki.
<Seraphna> * Cookie
<DeathStar> *Ren eyes the popsicle*
<DeathStar> *Tail wagging*
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I...see. 6She makes a face briefly. 1"That is...a lot to take in at one time."
<Xanatos> <Xan> I'm giving you this delicious popsicle to say hey you were impatient and sorta fucked with stuff but that's okay because I've done loads worse.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Indeed.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Xan blew up a hospital to get a girl back
<Xanatos> <Xan> HEY who even told you?
<DeathStar> <Ren> It's in a history book that Megumi wrote
<Xanatos> <Xan> ...of course she did.
<DeathStar> <Ren> How I blew up a hospital for my lady love
<DeathStar> <Ren> Chapter 69 moved me to tears
<DeathStar> *They arrive in the medical bay to find Caduceus with the vial of dark blood, eyeing it, then about to drink it in to test it*
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> For science
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Mr. Caduceus... that's a bad idea I think."
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> It seem's I have no choice but to come with you. 6She frowns slightly as she walks along with them
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Oh you have something to tell me? *he leans on his cane* Something evil in this you are trying to hide?
<DeathStar> *he leans in as if waiting*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I've done worse also." She mutters.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Well, you still don't quite know the future beyond what was potentially going to happen to you. You COULD stay, but we don't know what that may cause.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Would you like a cookie?"
<DeathStar> *he brings it up to his lips*
<DeathStar> *the vial*
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I could stay yes but I doubt I will do the same things.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I've had to make lots of decisions on a moment's reaction that decided whether a lot of people lived or died, including people I love. I know what I did was reckless, but I've also learned that doing something and having the consequences isn't nearly as bad as doing nothing and having the regrets." She peers at Xanatos, this probably being what actually bothered her about the
<Nyaomi> reprimand.
<Seraphna> Cookie> *makes one appear* Trade?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes, perhaps.
<DeathStar> *begins to tilt it*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "S-Stooooop."
<Xanatos> <Xan> With that I agree.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Then you can have it if you tell me everything. *he leans in, eyes gleaming* Begin
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* The next day, the day of the Xanation
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki eyes her datalogs as she prepares. cookie and Yuki having destroyed the substance from the medical bay
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Why did he want to knoooow?"
<Seraphna> * Cookie rocks and sniffles.
<Xanatos> <Xan> So. We're letting me die or get abducted, right?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "What is wrong, Cookie?"
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I believe that would you best action. You have messed with the timeline enough I believe.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I don't wanna." She mumbles, clinging to part of Xanatos' shirt.
<ChadWinters`> *Be the*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Oh Cad wanted info for the vial. I'm hoping he was satisfied knowing he retires to a comfy life with cute cabana boys."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Everone thought you died. But I think you were abducted with the dark cells. Lets find out the truth
<Xanatos> <Xan> Yeah, the truth would be nice for a change.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Well, I guess knowing that he gets his dream retirement works."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Wait, retirement? How old do you think I am!?
<DeathStar> *people walk by muttering Caduceus is even more of a give no shits doctor as he bully his students in medical*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "W-We were talking about Cad and his super gay future."
<Seraphna> * Cookie makes glitter hands to emphasize just how super gay.
<DeathStar> <Ren> You are being so streotypical
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You know I like girls right?"
<DeathStar> *suddenly alarms go off and YUki hurries* <Yuki> Lets go. It happens in the elevator
<Seraphna> * Cookie squeaks and follows.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *heads out*
<Xanatos> 6* Kane glances up and gathers his stuff then moves out, Xan runs out after Yuki
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC moves along with the others.
<DeathStar> *they arrive in the teleporter area where guests come and bombs have been set up.*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Orders, Yuki?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Did this happen...?"
<DeathStar> *Yuki eyes the bombs* The chaos has people fleeing and trying to help each other. Keep your eye on Xanatos
<DeathStar> *Xanatos shoves ARiel to save her when a teleport part hits him and instead of frying him, pins him and covers his body, smoke filling the area*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "He's just been hit."
<Xanatos> <Xan> I saved Ariel? I do not remember that. She sucks.
<DeathStar> 6* A second Ariel appears and moevs toward Xanatos, lifting him up easily with enhanced strength, then throws acid and clothes down where Xanatos was, and cuts some of Xanatos' hair off into the pile
<DeathStar> *Then begins to leave with Xanatos
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Who's Ariel?
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC watches Ariel take him. 1"Hmmm."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Yep, you got taken."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Mother of the dragoons.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Oh... so I'm related to her somehow.
<DeathStar> *The shape shifters injects something into Xanatos, then teleports him*
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "No wonder you think she sucks."
<DeathStar> *into a dark void, then shifts into an emergency crew worker*
<Xanatos> <Kane> And there was the injection.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Xannnpaaaa, can I beat her up yet...
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> That was interesting.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...that the same one from before?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> So they have a teleportation that goes past the PAX protection
<Xanatos> <Kane> It seems more advanced then any abilities they had before.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "This is a lot of juicy details."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Maybe we just leave it, because I'm alive at least.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...what if they've been getting help from outside forces?"
<DeathStar> *Yuki checks* In a week, they hit Kellin, then a bit more the other you
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Maybe they're not from this timeline either... they knew exactly when to take him."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> During this, we need to get back to Earth anyway. *she pats Vyvy* After that, you can get thi shapeshifter
<DeathStar> <Yuki> We need to watch Kellin, then head to Earth to talk to grandma about Centerpoint
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Why Kellin anyway? We know how they worjk
<DeathStar> <Yuki> He might have an injection too
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> Would it be wise to talk to her? She is smart, it's possible you may effect the timeline by doing so.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "They seem to have at least tried to infect people if not replace them."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Mmm, when it comes to Aunt Cheryl... she's probably the one we can trust not to screw things up."
<DeathStar> *Ren hesitates* If we don't talk to grandma, then we have to find Centerpoint alone
<Xanatos> <Kane> Better to have agents that you can control.
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* It turns out Kellin never got touched by the shifter. While saving people, he was indeed trapped in a shuttle malfunction. Heading to Earth, the fateful Kane day. On the shuttle barge.
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki peers at them, with the real Kane and the other team about to go on
<Xanatos> <Kane> Ah, I do remember bits of this now...they were not impressed with my shuttle.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You said marcus was part of this? Should I free Marcus from the freezer?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "It's kinda..."
<DeathStar> *the shag carpet and everything*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Yeah."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Send him back with them."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes, I believe so.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...wait...I heard about the shag upholstery... you telling me that was axcually true?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "It's getting creepy having him on Ice anyway."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes. 6* He looks at Josephine curiously.
<Seraphna> * Cookie fixes her twintails and grimmaces.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I have no idea who any of these people are." She sniffles. "Though Mykel kind of resembles that guy..."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Who, Marcus?"
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy shakes her head
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The cute one
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki unfreezes Marcus so the events of Death of Everything plays out like it did
<DeathStar> <Yuki> though I do worry about something
<Seraphna> Cookie> *tilts her head* Who does Mykel look like then? He's the one with the succubi twins right?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "...I thought that was just made up..."
<Xanatos> <Xan> What do you worry about?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> If the shifter got Marcus, he likely was injected like you, Xan. We need to check his blood when we get back
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Who knows what that infeceted dark blood will do with his other supernatural blood
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> That would bea good idea.
<Xanatos> <Xan> We should check, but I think he was just meant to die.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "True, they didn't take him like they took Xan. Wouldn't make sense to waste an injection."
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> His body could be a time bomb waiting to go off.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> The cute one that got on the shuttle.
<Xanatos> <Xan> I mean, we're definitely checking him because otherwise that would be silly.
<Xanatos> <Kane> ...the cute one...Kellin?
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I guess!" She doesn't really know him.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Mykel? A decendant of Kellin? That'd be funny."
<Xanatos> 6* Kane looks confused
<DeathStar> *as the events of the team getting Kane and all that occurring happens. A bit later, the shape shifter appears and looks raound, and assumes Kane's shape*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Why would it be funny? I think that cutie would cry over how he turned out." She sniffs, still bitter over him taking jabs at her.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Mmm, and this is where crazy Kane starts."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hm. The 'crazy' mean was killed, however.
<DeathStar> <Kane> ... *The dark shifter uses the shuttle and isseen flying off, leading to his campaign of terror in 153-161*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> You all seeing this? The shapeshifter was Kane
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Not the c'en after all
<Xanatos> <Xan> Wait.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "So how did the C'en fit into this?"
<DeathStar> *Ren rubs her chin* Good question
<Xanatos> <Xan> We thought they were the ones that replaced Kane.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Good question. Good question
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I will ask about the C'en later.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Did us fuckign time change that or was it never actually that?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Maybe they were trying... and didn't know about the dark hybrids?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> They might have tried. Or maybe we did change it
<Xanatos> <Kane> Two different factions coming after me at once?
<DeathStar> *Ren pats Kane* You are popular
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Hmm... maybe the C'e and the shifters simply had similar ideas."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Don't you feel special."
<Xanatos> <Kane> I am formidiable but that seems like overkill.
<Seraphna> Cookie> *giggles a bit*
<DeathStar> *Yuki looks serious now*
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> May be they are connected.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "They either weren't aware of each other... or maybe they are at war."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I was once told that time is elastic. In many ways, it will attempt to correct itself even if interfered with."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> That may be SPoC
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But it's a vote now
<Xanatos> <Xan> A vote?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Do we approach grandma and have her send us home
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Or do we try to find Centerpoint that is hidden up above us
<Xanatos> <Xan> Oh. Maybe I can approach her, just tell her that she doesn't need to know and see if she can do it?
<Seraphna> * Cookie muses on that. "I think trusting Aunt Cheryl with another secret of reality is a far lesser risk than accientally exposing Centerpoint early."
<Xanatos> <Xan> We don't have to tell her everything, just some time mumbo jumbo is happening and we need to fuck off.
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> That could work.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Besides... didn't she forget a whole bunch of stuff after Centerpoint was collapsed?"
<DeathStar> <Yuki> I think so. I know she made herself forget a lot
<DeathStar> <Yuki> She was going like Wind
<Seraphna> Cookie> "She did... and she has the power to make herself forget currently so..."
<Xanatos> <Kane> It's a risk, but Cheryl has done a lot to maintain our reality.
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> Then it's possible we can convince her to do that then.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Then lets do it
<DeathStar> *Ren pats Vyvy*
<Xanatos> <Kane> I'm sure of anyone she understands.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I say it's the better choice. Exposing Centerpoint could have Galactic consequences."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Lets go meet my grandma
<DeathStar> -Spinning Centerpoint-
<DeathStar> 6* The mansion stands there, much like in present day
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I'm feeling homesick all over again..."
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I'm feeling disjointed and useless...
<DeathStar> <Yuki> Me too
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> I might as well just be a compass that can see spirits and illusions." She slumps.
<DeathStar> *Yuki pulls her close, pointing at the mansion, the large trees and garden*
<DeathStar> <Yuki> This is where I grew up
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy perks slightly, nodding to Yuki.
<DeathStar> 6* Suddenly behind them, a scarred shapeshifter rises up, from Vyvy's attack, and surviving the Kane saga*
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I suppose that is how I will feel after this. 6She looks at Cookie then at the mansion
<DeathStar> <Shapeshifter> Somehow you are all behind this
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Scarface!
<DeathStar> *he forms bladed weapons and cuts at Vyvy and Josephine*
<DeathStar> *blood coming from his wounds*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy swiftly draws her moonflower blade and parries; sharp from all the practice in the VR game
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *leaps back, pulling her pistol to fire at it*
<Seraphna> * Cooke grumbles and uses Scramble Slam on it again to slow it.
<DeathStar> *The shape shifter stumbles from the hit and slowdown. Too weak it seems to go Ridiarium*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> What are you even after?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Wait. Behind what?"
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC turns around at the voice and pulls out her gun, aiming it at the dark one
<Nyaomi> * She seems to lack motivation to really fight at this point
<DeathStar> <Shapeshifter> You all somehow knew wheer I was going...what I was doing.... What faction are you. I will take your forms.... your knowledge
<Xanatos> 6* Kane slides the plates over his knuckles again and moves slowly towards the dark one.
<DeathStar> *he stabs at Vyvy*
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy takes a fluttery step to the side to dodge, staying defensive
<DeathStar> *Yuki spin slashes at it's legs, dropping it*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> C'mon, just tell us
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> Faction. 6She looks over at Yuki. 1"I believe that confirms something for us.
<DeathStar> <Shapeshifter> I will see you dead before I answer you
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Hmmm... does the name C'en, mean anything to you?"
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> You're going to be waiting a while, man
<DeathStar> <Shapeshifter> My brothers and sisters will avenge me
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You're going to see yuorself dead if you don't answer us."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "No, they won't. Speak or we expose you and your siblings."
<DeathStar> *The Shapeshifter eyes Josephine* Ah. The enemy that tried to steal the target from us in the future. That makes sense. You are from the future
<DeathStar> <Shapeshifter> What irony... *he falls back and begins to dissolve*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Not all of us...
<Xanatos> 6* Kane slides in with a 1-2 electric combo.
<DeathStar> *Kane makes him explode*
<Seraphna> * Cookie squeaks.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Woah, dude, he was dying!
<DeathStar> *Yuki> Yuck
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> It was for the best.
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sheathes her sword.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Not sure if he was or trying to turn to liquid and escap... but... yeah."
<Xanatos> <Kane> I wanted to be sure. 6* He eyes the stuff all ove rhim.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Mess aside, that confirms one theory... they are fighting a temporal war with the C'en."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "I don't THINK they had a hive mind... but..."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Wait, there are MORE sides to this?"
<DeathStar> *the grass dissolves from the gunk and Yuki rings the bell*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> So... are these remnant hybrids of the dark ones you told me about, while the C'en are remnants of progenitors or something?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Wait until we get inside."
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I would imagine two for sure. 6She moves over to the door with Yuki
<DeathStar> <Yuki> The C'en are remnants of Jaime
<Xanatos> <Xan> Actually we don't know much about them, aren't they a bigger threat for your side?
<DeathStar> <Yuki> But that's almost over
<Xanatos> <Xan> Wait. My Jaime?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Assuming Cheryl isn't pissed about her lawn."
<DeathStar> <Yuki> well they called him father
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> So... I'm right? Isn't Jaime a child of a progenitor?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "You have a big family now Xan."
<Xanatos> <Xan> You're right. It seems like a long time ago when we found him.
<Seraphna> (Also it's Jamie. Damnit.)
<Nyaomi> <Chii> So... who the fuck are you guys?
<DeathStar> (I'll call him Mr. J)
<Xanatos> <Xan> Sup Chii.
<Nyaomi> * Chii crouches on the roof, arms crossed over one knee with a pistol in either hand.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers out at them, then sees Kane who they just killed arlier
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Umm... long story?"
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Don't worry, this is the good twin."
<Nyaomi> <Chii> I got time-- and ammo. Take your pick.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> ... Oh hey, another fox.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl holds baby Lorelei, who coos*
<Xanatos> <Kane> Could you spare a moment to talk?
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> ...Hmmm. With Chii here things have gotten more complicated. 6She whispers to Kane
<Seraphna> * Cookie waves to Cheryl, but also now realizes she looks like a cross between Tabetha and Zephyr (Leira).
<Nyaomi> * Chii narrows her eyes, not having her tail/ears out and not recognizing Vyvy.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... alright. Come inside. Please avoid the kitchen area. Lemon is inside
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and puts a sheet over Kane.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Buh-- you're sure, Cherry?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Ah. yes. Of cou-6* He pauses at the sheet.
<DeathStar> *She leads them inside the parlor. There are pregnancy, positive, in the trash cans, and crying sounds inside the kitchen*
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC walks along
<DeathStar> *Cheryl pulls the sheet off so she can eye Kane's eyes*
<Nyaomi> * Chii drops down and tails them, looking agitated.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl eyes Lorelei to Chii, who wags at Chii*
<Seraphna> * Cookie sighs, realizing what this all points to.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "YUki, hpw much are we allowed to say?"
<Xanatos> 6* Kane looks back, though he glances to the trash can and frowns.
<Xanatos> <Kane> So she...is expecting?
<DeathStar> *Yuki and Ren peer at each other, then Josephine*
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Hey baby girl." She grins, softening up and nuzzles Lorelei before holstering her guns and cradling her
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She used some stored semen of yours after the news of your death. Wanted something to remember you by
<DeathStar> *Lorelei nuzzles*
<Seraphna> Cookie> "So why doesn't... nevermind."
<Jackieness> <Josephine> *facepalms* "...we should expedite this then."
<Seraphna> Cookie> "Yeah, let's get in a nice quiet room."
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Lorelei's so beautiful." She beams, playing with her, sitting on a counter.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So why are you all here? *she eyes Yuki and Ren* From the future
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> You stored semen? 6She looks at Kane
<Xanatos> <Kane> Of course.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Wait, Lorelei.. the hea---" She covers her mouth, looking wide-eyed.
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods and sighs. "We're here to get back."
<DeathStar> *Lorelei coos at Vyvy too*
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> How did you know that, Cheryl?
<Xanatos> <Xan> I'm sorry hold on. You just looked at them and knew?
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Fairly obvious by now, I think."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes. I can seel the similiar energy to me
<DeathStar> *feel
<Seraphna> Cookie> "She's got the reality powers too."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I only have one kid
<ChadWinters`> <SPoC> I see. That makes sense.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So they have to be from the future
<Seraphna> Cookie> "As you can guess, we're hoping you'll make yourself forget all this after... but we need to get back to our time."
<Nyaomi> <Chii> I mean, we could just have had more.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane looks torn and write something down on a piece of paper.
<Seraphna> * Cookie peers at Kane. <Nooooo>>
<Xanatos> 6* Kane eyes Cookie then holds his hand out to Cheryl.
<Seraphna> Cookie> <Do not interfere with causality any more than we already have...>
<DeathStar> *Cheryl takes it and peers at it*
<DeathStar> *Lorelei peers at them, forming dolls that look like Vyvy's past lovers*
<DeathStar> *that lay on her arms*
<Xanatos> <Kane> This is information on how to connect to my remote server. Could you...just leave notes and pictures of my child?
<Seraphna> Cookie> "...Oh... guess that's fine."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You do know it means I have to remember this event.
<Seraphna> Cookie> "...Conflict."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> But I guess I can vaguely recall doing that
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy blinks, moving closer to Lorelei to watch. Chii looks puzzled, frowning at Vyvy, but watches them both.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I would be in your debt, but I understand if you feel it is too much of a risk.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> *turns to them* Are you ready?
<Seraphna> * Cookie nods. "Yep."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Sure.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Yes, let's go."
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy jerks, looking over at the others, already a sniffling, sobbing mess again.
<Nyaomi> <Chii> Wh-What's wrong with you, kid?
<DeathStar> *Cheryl strains, sweating, as if taking them somewhere is hard, forcing a rip. The teams vanishes a moment later and Cheryl kneels, a moment later Cheryl and Chii forgetting what they were doing. The toys the only proof that anything was up
<Xanatos> 6* Xan moves over and lifts up Vyvy.
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> W-We're leaving? I-It's C-Catherine... ;A;
<Xanatos> <Xan> Just a little homesick.
<DeathStar> *Cheryl eyes the toys* When did you get these?
<DeathStar> *Cheryl picks everythng up, the toy of Catherine missing, likely with Vyvy
<DeathStar> *Cheryl rubs her head, and moves to check a server on a whim*
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* The team appears in a world with red skies, a storm and rain falling down
<DeathStar> 6* Yuki looks around, and Ren shivers. Up on a hill where Centerpoint's servers were, a giant tree now grows, reaching up to the heavens
<Xanatos> 6* Xan glances around.
<Xanatos> <Xan> Well this looks weird.
<DeathStar> 6* And the other 4 groups are up there
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC looks around, having not seen this place before. 1"Is it?"
<Xanatos> <Kane> ...there are the others, and the tree.
<DeathStar> <Yuki> S-So big
<Xanatos> <Xan> Oh yeah none of this stuff was here before. It was pretty clean.
<DeathStar> *Yuki runs up the hill to be with Erica
<Seraphna> * Cookie runs over to try and find her Momma.
<Xanatos> 6* Xan moves to find his wives, lugging Vyvy with him.
<Jackieness> <Josephine> "Let's form up with the rest of the teams. We have to fight destiny."
<Xanatos> 6* Kane looks around for Lemon as he moves for the hill, but she wasn't in the groups.
<DeathStar> 6* Ren hurries along, and Cheryl turning to glance at them as they all pop up. Athena bounces around, pawing at the air, while John checks Key out for wounds. Her breasts mainly*
<Nyaomi> <Vyvy> Ughuuu... stop itttt... stupid fate... rubbing Catherine in my faaaace..." She sobs.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon is there, making sure the two kids are okay
<DeathStar> *The Catherine doll wiggles, getting wet*
<Seraphna> * Jennifer picks up Athena and raspberries her neck.
<ChadWinters`> 6SPoC moves ovver to the group, taking everything in slowly.
<Nyaomi> * Key is stone cold out; apparently even if she was an 'artificial goddess,' having the ability to alter reality ripped out of you does a number
<DeathStar> *Yuki waves at Marcus* Hi Mark. We need to check you for eggs
<Xanatos> 6* Kane hugs all three.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Uh, saywhatnow?
<DeathStar> *Lemon hugs back*
<Seraphna> Angela> "Ewww, eggs? What'd he try and mate with now?"
<Nyaomi> * Hope moves over to Marcus and leans in toward him, frowning.
* ChadWinters` stands next to his his daughther and grandkids, eyeing SPoC being with. 1"...Not going to ask."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> You have eggs in your Marcus?!
<Xanatos> <Kane> I...may have set things in motion to find our child. 6* He whispers to Lemon.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> W-Why are people looking at me and wanting my eggs?
<Seraphna> Angela> "You tell us, Bird Man."
<Nyaomi> * Hope jerks, flustering, and jabs Marcus near the kidney
<Nyaomi> <Hope> I don't want your eggs!
<DeathStar> <Shion> I don't wnat to hear that from you, Angela. In the other reality, your counter part laid eggs
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus urks and holds his stomach.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> *runs over to hug Ren!*
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> Hahaha, wuss! 6He points a finger at Marcus as he laughs
<Seraphna> Angela> "Huh? She did? I... kind of lost her memories."
<DeathStar> *Ren hugs Reikana and spins*
<Nyaomi> * Hope then jumps and checks him. "I-I'm sorry! I didn't... ergh.."
<Xanatos> <Xan> Hooooooo boy did we find out some shit in our world.
<Jackieness> <Reikana> "We're getting the band back together!"
<DeathStar> 6* Fate and Destiny appears, Destiny looking stronger again and glowing*
<Seraphna> Angela> "But she was a dragon. Dragons lay eggs. So there." *she sniffs*
<DeathStar> <Destiny> So you all managed to return
<DeathStar> *Fate hangs back, as if subdued*
<ChadWinters`> 6Dias instantly slips in to a defensive stance, his eyes locked on to Destiny
<Nyaomi> * Vyvy sniffles, rubbing her face. "I don't lay eggs..."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Ah fuck, this guy.
<Nyaomi> <Hope> Hey, uh, Marcus?
<Seraphna> Luci> "Oh him again."
<ChadWinters`> <Dias> He's got his strength back, Marcus.
<Nyaomi> <Hope> I know you like, know jack-all about me and we're probably about to die or be erased from time or whatever.
<Seraphna> Angela> "Yes, we made it. Despite your hopes."
<Jackieness> <Airym> *is slumped on the ground in between the group and destiny* "...I was not able to hold things together..."
<Nyaomi> <Hope> But uh, after this, you... want to get something to drink, maybe?
<DeathStar> <Destiny> No worries. I have Yggdrasil. *he lifts his hand and the roots of the tree begin to wiggle, and suddenly, glow. The team finds them selves glowing as the energy from the tree builds, and the people begin to warp, each person being scattered and thrown all over Yaggdrasil, seperated once again*
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus looks to hope, confused.
<DeathStar> <Destiny> Let us test your destiny once more
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Uh...okay.
