November 17th 4566; Late Night

Ari had decompressed in more ways than one only to be summoned by yet another Orteria Minister; these summons were getting old but she was the fleets head of intelligence and basically in charge of all things intel or counter-intel so that should be expected... With Sumire now more having to handle matters of state Ari wondered if that would require her to take up charge of the Lavie once more; she also wondered how Aidan with his new role as commander-in-chief would fall into the overall structure of things. Lots of changes were ahead but none of them knew that as of yet.

Upon arriving in the office of the minister whom summoned her Eru Yun was there; it seemed the head of the Royal Security Service's Judicators was involved in whatever was happening here. "I will get to the point; your interrogation operative found out more information which was corroborated by our Secret Intelligence Service... It sounds like a name but that is just what we call that entire side of our intel unit; they don't actually have a name." "Yeah, yeah, yeah... more clandestine bullshit... I get it; you said you were going to get straight to the point?" "We've located some of the Senators involved in the control of Echels and the black funding which her unit was created with." "So the assholes who were behind the cult?" "Even more then that; their financial dealings have much more long-standing long-running connections." "Hang on; this seems to be something that needs more than just little old Erin...." Ari chuckled at herself in her own dismay messaging Aidan to come to this office.

Aidan responded to the message and that he was on his way. Using the VX he changed into BDU's, his level one power armor underneath.

He walked into the room and saw the usual suspects. He tried to keep his face neutral but even he knew he failed. "What are we walking into now?" he said plainly, leaving the scowl on his face.

Ari shrugged. "Wow... So you see messages from me and assume it's work.... I could be having another existential crisis you know..." she zinged at Aidan. Eru replies without even acknowledging either of them. "General; We have intelligence regarding the group of Senators that is behind the cult and numerous other galactic conflicts within the last say ten years."

"The Senate raids by Delta Force when they were on Mars was the right idea.... In short... if you understand my meaning... The elements your organization and others attempted to quell in fact escaped." Eru continued

(You remember the mission a long time ago when we overthrow the senate before; we didn't do good enough)

Turning to Aro first, he said, "Smart ass," and left it at that. "Thank you for the Intel. I guess it's time to go back and clean house. No more running. I feel like we are endlessly chasing our tail. Other doesn't anyone have other ideas."

"A small team of people you trust; one unit.... and small landing parties.... This should stay under the radar as not to have anyone discover this operation is actually happening.... Especially with my agents understanding of how intertwined this is with the Galactic Federation Government.... My analysts believe that this has links to events even before Orteria was forced to join the Federation or what has become the Federation." Eru advises.

"I think that goes without saying. My problem is how do we get there without raising suspicion. The Lavie is pretty hard to miss." Aidan commented.

"It is much easier to miss than a Cityship and a large armored unit of ships.... I could see about acquiring your team a ship from our merchant channels; you would need to crew it however." Eru said.

"We have enough people to crew ships; just picking the people we trust the most or whom are least likely to have had anything ever to do with any of this... Like me... Time traveling girl from the past... totally some alias an evil old man senator using cameras to watch your daughter undress would.... oh..... uh..." Ari stops rambling.

"Problem is the Lavie is faster than most. Have to think about that. But I agree. The smaller the better in this case. " Aidan poured a cup of coffee while thought about his next move.

"Who should we bring in the loop... I can think of a couple people off hand; like our new people... As fucked as that sounds Orteria citizens who have nothing to do with the cult were like... entirely uninvolved with the Federation.... I mean being forced into a galactic empire never really is met with happiness and joy...."Ari said.

"Plus all the people from another world...Jack Sanya...." Ari adds

"That makes sense. I guess that's why I keep you around." He said to Erin. "I going to want to go into training with them. This is going to require polished skills." Aidan said.

"Oh you know you lust about me in your dreams too.... That is really why you keep me around" Ari teased him even though they both knew that was true. Eru coughed. "Leave the fraternization for the lounge please you two. Nobility should not wreak of lust... Might I suggest your resident persons attached to ships... As having reinforcements you could call in at a moments notice might be useful and unexpected by the enemy should they say; jam communications in a normal sense and such."

"I have ways around jamming." Aidan said. "Okay, then let's not tip around hand too much. Just the Lavie. Round up everyone. Quietly. Let's make up a story that makes sense. Small mission, short trip." He said to Erin.

"Okay...Who should be bring into this this early to help us plan out things? Could you get us a small transport ship we can take with us to use for deploying our crew... looks less conspicuous than a shuttle." Ari asked Aidan. Eru nodded. "As you wish your highness."

"I am open to suggestions. Nik and Lumi come to mind." He said

"Well... Seleni I mean Miss Yuna did just suggest her. Sanya as a fresh take on our situation from someone not from our humanity might be helpful.... Maybe our new trainee pets... New minds put to a new idea come up with different ideas or so half the lecturers I skipped in college pounded into me." Erin said.

"Okay, Let's quietly start assembling things. No more running away from problems."

She nods. The minister in the room with Yuna and the two of them leaves to get a ship together for use to deploy for the mission. Eru leaves to get them a room. Ari covertly sends each of the people they mentioned a private encrypted message.

Aidan moves closer to Erin. "So I am incessantly lusting after you? I think it's far more mutual than that." The smile on his face apparent.

She scoffs. "As true as we both may know that is there are tasks in the way and an angry queen... Besides; unless you are offering you did make things clear awhile ago... Unless I misunderstood...." She had not thought of their attempt at getting together once in awhile... Back then he didn't look her age though.... She dismisses the teasing blessed that Sarissa gave her better skills at controlling her own emotions even if she still had outbursts.

Aidan said, "that was a different time." His thoughts going to Yuka and Emily and how that had blown up in his face. It still stung. "The timing has never been right, but timing is now longer an issue."

Ari changed the subject. "Our minions are coming or did you forget...." She then leaves the room to head to the conference room that Eru just sent the two of them. Where they would meet and train with the folks they were bringing in on this.

"Let do this." Aidan said following her as he caught up to walk beside her.

Veil enters the room being guided by someone as the situation was obvious that she didn't know the way to exactly get there, before saying "dang i need to get one of those vx things.. that minimap would be so good.." under her breath, meeting eyes with Ari and Aiden followed by an apology "Sorry guys, I had a bit of trouble finding the place.."

as jett walks through the door he stumbles over his own feet causing him to stumble forward a few feet. bup bup bup. he says before regaining his balance before looking around the room to see if anyone noticed. Clearly knowing that there was he then walks over to the group in the room. hey what’s going on in here?

Valona would enter the conference room as well, following the message that had come from Ari, noticing as Jett would stumble over his own feet.

"I came as soon as I was notified to."

Veil looked at the two other coming in and thought "I've never met these two I think" before tracking her gaze back to Aidan and Ari

"is this everyone that was on the roster?"

Valona would flick her eyes to Veil as she looked at her, before her own gaze went towards Ari and Aiden.

Oscar walks over into the conference room a bit after the others, moving at a leisurely pace.

"Yo, I'm here as well now. So, what's going on?"

"Totally military introductions.... like totally...." Erin chuckled amused by the people's way of introducing themselves.

Seleni arrives wearing casual clothes for a day off, with Dawn in her usual attire. "You called?" Seleni asks.

Sanya adjusted something on her belt as she answered the summons to the conference room. It had been a strange day. The customs of integrating new crew were odd. It was like learning the proper food pairings. She was uncertain of vanilla and chicken, but they would make it work next time.

Ari had something occur to her as the last member entered the room. "Yeah... Wow... So it just occurred to me for the completely new people there were no formal introductions.... I'm Ari Mizriki Trinity Intelligence Commander... This is Aidan Thornton our General and Chairmen of the Orteria Military Authority." She said introducing herself and Aidan.

"to be fair, i'm not part of this military" veil slid in

"yet" she then added

Aidan starts off. "We have a mission. This is going to require secrecy, but until further notice, the group you are now with a few additions are the group we go with. I won't tell you where or who. If you aren't settled on going with us. Leave now."

"I'm sticking around, I have nothing to really do except become a snow-cone vendor." Veil said followed but the small quip

Finally a mission! jett says in excitement not one for sitting around doing nothing he would much rather be getting his hands dirty. I’m in one hundred percent

Seleni looks at Aidan before giving him a small nod and leaves. "I'll tell you after the brief." Seleni messages both Aidan and Ari as she leaves.

"if we're going after whoever brought me back to life, i want to make them regret that."

Valona nodded lightly at the introductions from Ari, bowing her head lightly towards her and Aidan, and then continued to listen as Aidan spoke, and nodded lightly. "I can keep a secret. I'm in on the mission."

Dawn stays behind and observes the new additions to the team.

As Seleni is leaving Ari says "Your adjutant wont be able to relay this to you You decide here or you don't go."

"Plus once we leave orbit, there will be no outbound communications. If I find someone that does, you will be placed in an escape pod and hopefully we alive when we come back." he added. "That's how serious I am."

"Is it often that new personnel refuse orders?" Sanya looked confused. "It's a mission for the good of the society so why would one refuse?" Her voice carried a strange accent, she was speaking without her translator it seemed.

"I understand." Seleni says to Ari before closing the door behind her.

"People get stupid and make bad choices." Aidan said simply to Sayna

Oscar said, "I'm also going to stick around for this mission, even though I don't think it'll go along my specialties. But I will try my best." Then whispering under his breath; "I am not going to let the same thing happen twice.." as his fists clench in frustration.

"whatever you need me to do just tell me, I'm practically suited for outer space and climate shifts." veil plainly replied

Jackson Moore zoned out for a moment watching as seleni leave before coming back to his senses. "W-whoa who was that?"

Ari sighs. "We will be gone for some time; our mission will likely last awhile." She made sure everyone understands.

"I will do my 100 percent. I want to carry my share," Sanya added with a nod.

"Eh that’s fine with me not like I have anything else going on in my life right now" Jackson added.

The door hissed open one more time as the guard they would have recognized from the other day, had slipped in with the rest when they had arrived. As the meeting had gone on so far, he had sat and listened gathering all the info they had been given. "I'm game, you know I have the experience and training. May not be powerful or anything, but I'll put my rifle to work where needed.", Jack Pine finally spoke throwing in his hat so to speak.

Aidan said, "I will have the details once we leave orbit. Not until then. Questions?"

Ari added "I will be sending each of you and your respective department heads additional information on assignment reporting information. As Aidan just said we won't be giving out any more details on the actual mission until we leave."

Valona's feline ears would swivel around towards Jack when he spoke, her head following, before turning back to Ari and Aidan once more, and thought when he asked if there were any questions.

Jack Pine: "We bringing designated loadouts, special requisition, or acquired on site sir?"

She would nod towards Ari as she spoke, listening and understanding.

"Equipment isn't an issue." Aidan offered.

"I'm all good to go, if there's nothing more to be said." Oscar said, crossing his while leaning against a wall near the door.

"Alright then; dismissed unless you all have other questions that we can answer now... get prepared to leave as we will notify you as soon as we are ready to depart." Ari said.

"I've noticed a theme with the participants in this meeting, is there anyone not in attendance I should nudge to meet with you for this. Sarah perhaps? She's a far better shot then I am, in the case we need overwatch." Jack asked.

"If i found out someone talked. You will be staying here on planet." Aidan added speaking to the entire group as a whole

"Jack; we will be bringing in support personnel as needed; the people in this room are just the primary ground team."

"As I said department heads and such will be fed to you soon."

Jack nodded, "Understood, I have no further questions then. I will take my leave now."

Valona nodded as well. "Understood." She looked to Aidan as he spoke, and nodded to him as well, and his warning.

Ari seeing the cat girl's ears move struggled to keep her fangasm inside; actual neko people did exist.... Ari quickly suppressed the emotional glee.... She wasn't dreaming at elast.

"Understood," Sanya perked up at the mention of "fed". "Oh! Are we going to get food next? I heard about this chicken waffles thing."

"Yes; I'm going to tie you to a chair and force-feed you informational documents Sanya." Ari said sarcastically but she knew it was a lost cause at this point.

Valona couldn't help but let out a little chuckle at the sarcasm and the question of food.

"Be prepared for training, training, and hard work." He added at the last second.

"Documents are food?" Sanya tilted her head to the side since the mental picture was strange. "Opposite of interrogation, it seems."

"Zamorit’ chervyachka?"

"Yes; feeding you information; its the most effect--- Okay; I'm going to stop being a bitch now... It seems someone needs to actually teach you metaphors..." Ari said pinching the bridge of her nose.

Valona nodded at Aidan's last addition, having also noticed Ari's struggle to keep her emotions inside about her cat ears, but not reacted to it herself.

Sanya nodded to Aidan, that she understood. "Ah yes. Always ready to work."

Oscar looked curiously at Valona's ears while adding, "I just hope I can be of use on this mission.."

Atsumari · January 4, 2020

(This happens shortly after the meeting above; there might be some short posts between this and that; I will add those here....)

{ This is a placeholder]

Erin "Ari" Mizriki
Aidan Thornton
Royal Compound; Orteria/ Exective Suite; TFS Lavie (Orteria Orbit)
November 17th 4566; Nighttime

<START SIM>

After many a conversation and some leisure time Erin had now completed everything she needed to here before departing. She was well ahead of the game in that regard and just found herself in the lounge again; she wondered if she should just go up to the ship to make sure everything was prepared for everyone. It has been a little while since she was on the Lavie last and since it had basically been the place she lived while she was here from the beginning it felt like a home to her; even if not really her home. After a drink she headed into a holodeck and began to tend to her violate flower which she had started takin a liking to back on the Lavie; Sumire may have preferred VR but Erin was more into this holodeck stuff; there was just something about doing things physically as opposed to controlling everything with a mental version of yourself. She was removing imperfect leaves from the giant flower; it had grown as she tended to it; meanwhile outside of the small area she was tending to it was a snowstorm and harsh cold that gave a reflection to her own mind; moments of beauty trapped in a cold hard deadly unforgiving shell.

Aidan had moved the last of his equipment he needed right now to the Lavie. The armory has regular items but he liked a few specailized items that had been tweaked just for him. Once in his old quarters, he felt more than a touch of nostalgia. Locking the weapons the room safe, he secured everything save his service pistol, put on some slacks and a pull over collared shirt and started wandering around the ship.

Erin finished her work on the flower saving the program and transferring it back to the Lavie's computer; she then left the mansion's holodecks and made her way to the Lavie via the transporter. The thought had occurred to her if the whole worry she had heard nerds on her time rage about; involving you not in fact being you when you get vaporized and reconstituted in a matter of seconds elsewhere. She chuckled to herself internally about this thought as she arrived on the Lavie herself then headed for her own quarters. There was only a small wall that was more of a partition separating Aidan and her quarters as the modular nature of the room and it being changed to how it was for Yuka and he made the room possible to become one massive room once more. She contemplated the room as she unpacked; it was fast to do as she still did not have all that much of her own; just all the things Brandon gave her and a back of her own belongings. She had never really gotten a round to getting a lot of her own stuff as in the past six months she had been too busy.

With everything that had happened, the nostalgia was making Aidan feel even worse. He turned around the same way and figured he would take one of the replicated antique firearms to the makeshift range in cargo bay 2. He walked through the doors, seeing Erin there, stopped mid room. "I'm sorry. We kind of left the room one big area."

(moving to desktop)

As he entered and she had finished unpacking she was just sitting on the bed. She shrugged. "I mean... it has its practical purposes and there is a partition that can be called up... so it is not that bad... I wouldn't mind sharing the space if you are okay with it... It is not like there is much we don't know about each other by this point... Considering how many times I have basically unloaded my soul into you... Besides; privacy is an illusion in the military; just cause I am female and an officer doesn't mean I should expect an individual room..." She stuck out her tongue; she was no longer an officer though and she was forgetting the fact that now as flag staff she had even more perks; though those themselves came with even more responsibilities.

"Not to mention spending several weeks in the trenches together." Aidan added. He thought about it for a few seconds. "It's not going to bother me. " He had spent years in just such predicaments. Usually is was a platonic professionalism, though not without the occasional sideways glance or erection in his case. There was only so much he could control. "Plus it should make it easy to keep each other up to date on the ship functions."

"Having half the ship filled with bodies does kind a make quarters tight..." She said cynically. "How will this work though?" She asked. She then nodded and observed him for a moment; more glancing him over... She was obviously looking him over. There was no lack of understanding that they were attracted to each other but there was always a wall in the way... She was right to ask how this would work especially spending two years as the live in girlfriend with Brandon... What even were they to each other... She wondered.

"We have a few options. You can take the big bed, and I'll take the spare room. Plenty of pillows and blankets around the holo-firepit. Or get rid of the bed and split it into smaller twins." Aidan said, then added, "unless you have a better idea." He wasn't sure if he'd noticed Erin checking him out, though he certainly had a hard time not concentrating on the wonder twin she carried.

"A better idea... So... What do you mean by that... We could just make two different beds... Unless...?" She said as a question.

Aidan figured he was done dancing around the issue. "Sleeping with me would be a bad idea. You'd wake up with my hands on your boobs at the very least. It's not conscious, just the way I work. Something warm, soft, and female automatically gets assigned cuddle status."

"And who here is saying that wouldn't..." She sighs for a moment letting her impulsive side take over. "Look; we both know we want each other... Sumire has as much given me her blessing with anyone... as fucked as the situation may be it is something we both are not opposed to... So... does this stay or do we just separate the room again?"

"She has given me the same speech, and you're right, it's not something either one of us are truly opposed to. Just our own overwhelming sense of duty making us feel guilty even though there isn't a reason to. So you want the left or the right side of the bed." He said ending with a grin.

"Doesn't matter to me; a twenty something girl who had a sex crazed lover who made her basically a wanton sex machine and a guy who physically is in his twenties and prime again but has the experience of someone who is almost fifty... we will end up in the middle of the bed most nights anyway..." She said.

"Well let's get something straight off the bat. I like sex and I like a lot of sex, but if you're looking for the Kinkmaster General, that isn't me. Not that I am unwilling to try things, I just have my limits." Aidan commented.

"I totally get that; I'm not expecting you to... nor do I want you to be Brandon... He went a bit far even for my tastes... I was with the guy because we got along; I loved him and we had things in common... Pretty much the entire reason I would date you... If we are being honest." She said.

(and yes; she is saying she loves him; its not a romantic love right now but he has been a rock to her; he kept her from killing herself after Brandon died; with Sarissa's help but for that alone he has her love and respect and always will)

"Date me. Interesting." He said, closing the gap some between them and sitting at one of the stools near the counter in the kitchenette. "Where would be go, O' voluptuous one?"

"There are some pretty good holodeck programs you know and I am not familiar with Earth II much; but... i have been known to prose a directory or two when necessary...." She chuckled nonchalantly.

"I think somewhere more neutral. We are going to have our fill of Earth II real soon. Where would you take me where you are from originally?" He asked her, not bothering to avert his gaze.

"Um... Well... There are a lot of places I wanted to go but never was able... Journalists may see the world but we don't really get to experience it... At least in war and violence type reporting... My job sucked...." She laughed at her own dismay.

"France.... uh... hey... now that is a thought... A beach as the sun is setting during a rainstorm... thunder... hum.... A hike on a snowfilled mountain.... god... these so don't sound like locations you would go for a date...."(edited)

"It depends more on the company than location," He offered, "but I am not hiking through the snow."

"Oh... You don't want to go... aww... but I always liked snow and the cold.... just... It never snowed where I lived... That is another idea... watching a super nova happen or a sun flare from a distance; I've heard that or other space phenomena would be lovely... You would probably know more about that then I do though..."

"Snow is great. For 5 minutes. After that it's cold and semisolid water. That sounds more like 5th date." Aidan said. "But I would be happy to take you on a scenic space tour. "

"So then you don't like storms either... cold isn't so bad; just throw on some cute as fuck winter clothes and you'll be fine... for girls some of that winter wear can look pretty cute... he he... men have some pretty fashionable stuff too... gotta look refined.... hey that female butler would know what to throw us in for some of that old day Victorian style... minus the corset..." Erin said seemingly lost in her own wandering thoughts about cute clothes, nice places and other such things that were making her happier as she babbled about them.

"I have no problems with storms. In fact you in a swimsuit on the beach raining sounded pretty interesting." Aidan said.

"One day I will take you to my old farm in Upstate NY during winter. That'll cure you." He smirked.

"um... but no more Earth.... Anyway... You know I was thinking more just watching the storm and the ocean... but getting all wet in a bikini for you in a rainstorm on the beach wouldn't be all that bad... Hell; minus the vest I'd go frolic in the rain for you in this any day..." She said batting her eyes at him.

"Careful what you wish for." He said to her. He reached out for her hand.

She took his hand but first taking off the vest with her uniform now in her blouse and skirt. "So you do wanna watch a schoolgirl run through the rain all playful like... you pervy boy..." She teased.

"What guy in his right mind would say no to a wet shirt on a busty babe?" He pulled her towards himself softly, watching her walk the short distance. Especially one that he's dreamed of, taking cold showers over...."

"But isn't the reverse also true." He added

"Oh so you just wanna see my boobs wet... You could have just asked me to shower in my clothes for you.... There are dryers... In fact; that is something we could do here... and I can do both; watching a cute boy or girl do anything... just take that into your mind close your eyes and burn it into your mind for later so you can totally just lust over being there again with them watch.... - I'm sounding like a pervert myself now; time to shut up erin..." She stopped herself from further babbling on.

"Oh hell no. I don't want to see dinner through the restaurant window." He said as pulled into a tight embrace, forcing there to be nothing but clothes between them. "If it comes to that, i want to the whole experience." His hands were tight on her hips, but he stopped from going any further without a mutual understanding between them.

"I wasn't going to just make you stand outside the shower; its an interactive experience... and the mental thing is for later silly... c'mon... see thats why it proves how much of a pervert I am; what girl would tell their guy to remember them doing something lusty and burn it into their mind for later..." She tried to shrug but since she was in his embrace now she couldn't. She relented and hugged him back pushing herself tightly against him making sure her breasts were pressed hard against him.

As she pressed herself more into him, Aidan stared hard into her eyes and took a tentative first kiss. "Maybe you aren't only one that wants the other to remember something." Without removing his hands from her, he guided them over her supple flesh and cupped an ass cheek in each hand. He picked her up too far on purpose, enjoying the soft pillows against his face before letting her down against his manhood, her skirt was against her stomach. Only her panties and his jeans were between them.

"Oh... if you are wanting that; silly... All this playing... We still have a ship to prepare... when we are done though..." She kisses him back holding her pantie covered mound next to his obvious erection. "Gotta do work; then play; maybe discussing this all now was a bad idea as it torture's both of us..."

"Don't you tease me. I'll tap you like a keg." He said playfully.

"I think that's what we both need... but after we do what needs done..." She lets go seeming wanting but keeping herself from further expressions of her wanting to just jump into his arms and make sweet love to him; the kind of love that they both have wanted to make to one another for months.

"I hate you when you make too much sense," he said, smacking her on the ass for effect.

<Start>
After the two had a close encounter but delayed things due to work Ari had went to make sure the crew was all settled. It seemed most of those whom were coming with them and whom were assigned to the ship were on board or in the process of traveling to the ship. They would be ready to go sooner than initially expected. At least the time traveling to Earth II would be uneventful giving them time to continue the leisurely goings about of the world around them; something that the crew had not had in awhile with battle after battle, Earths evacuation and even between Yuka and Aidan... There wasn't really ever a moment of time slowed down... Now would be that time as much as it was different than it was before;

Ari was down in security checking over with the assistant chief. They would be bringing Lai-Lee Echels with them to at the very least identify her superiors. It was agreed upon all those in Orteria whom handled her security that she be kept under extensive guard with her mental manipulation powers.

Checking his marines was a normal ongoing and never ending task. Not so much to find anything wrong and correct it, but to keep the well oiled machine working at peak performance. He personally checked the armory and settled into paperwork. His assistant was fairly good at filtering most of the minutia out.

Once Ari was done with her review of security she moved on to engineering. Lumiere oversaw Ops and since she was the ship herself it was redundant for anyone to check on her. Ari also knew that medical was a well maintained machine; left to their own devices Sarissa, Petell, Yaname and Blom could manage their entire department themselves even if three of the four were disposed. Once she completed the check over engineering an alarm sounded throughout the ship. "All hands intruder alert deck 7 section 4. Tactical response teams secure your stations." Ari opened a link over her VX to the bridge. "What is going on?" "The escort team bringing in Miss Echels is under fire." "From who; better question is how did they get on the ship..." "Unknown." Trent replied again.

Aidan was in the corridor when the alert siren went off. He called to the bridge and got a status report. A secondary command brought up his full power armor, he selected the ODM sword and big Thunder for ship corridors. He headed towards where Trent has said the fight was taking place. Sword in left hand, pistol in his dominant one.

As he and a team of marines whom were always on tactical standby responded in full gear; the team; also in full gear covering the what appeared to be muzzled girl with them were held up in between two doorways. The access areas to interrogation 1 and 2. Whoever this was they had attacked the team right as they were entering interrogation to put her in holding. The Orteria soldiers whom were bringing her her were exchanging fire with... what appeared to be nothing. At least until it returned fire. a cloaked enemy was unloading projectiles into anything that moved; only the corner of the wall saving the team from being blown away. A portal opened at the other end of the hallway at the secured door that would lead to the lift. Ari popped out in her own powered suit with Mimi and one of Orteria's Science Ministry agents that was on the ship; in short this person was like the Alchemy Commission's Special Policing Unit which Mimi used to be part of; a gem tactical specialist. This soldier created a barrier with multiple gems as the cloaked object fired in their direction partly distracted and only hitting a sort of force-field made of gem energy.

Aidan uses the VX command to switch to the guass plasma carbine. He fired the metallic hydrogen penetator at the center where the fire was concentrating.
The sonic boom is deafening as the metal slug leaves the muzzle at Mach 10.

The ODM Gem Specialist moved forward his shield closing the distance to the enemy. basically only giving it one choice; head into the marines fire. The shield also seems to deafen the sound from harming the three behind the shield; it seems to help protect against anything that could be deemed harmful. This was some advanced stuff he was using. As he was standing in the middle of the hallway using the shield and the hydrogen weapon the cloak on the robot fails and it is severely damaged. The sudden explosion distracts the specialist though and the man is shot. Ari was about to tell him running from cover was stupid but being shot proved that; in a quick impulsive act Ari opens a portal under the bot quickly and then closes it as soon as the bot falls through. it burns up in a sun. She and Mimi move to aide the ODM soldier. "Who told you it would be a good idea to run out in the middle of the damn hallway... there is confidence in battle and then there is just being a moron......." Ari chastised the injured man as Mimi starts healing him. marines immediately secure the area. it was only one robot which is now gone. (yeah falling through a portal and appearing in the atmosphere of a star will do that).

"Report!" Aidan said, moving the muzzle towards the deck plating. "What the fuck is going on!"

One of the ODM escorts replied to Aidan. "the target just appeared out of nowhere and began firing at us as we were transferring the subject to your custody." The ODM Sergeant replies. "Out of nowhere you say; why?" "Not a clue sirs." he replied to both of them. "I can only assume they were after her.... un restrain her." Ari told them. The ODM soldiers do as told. Lai then replies when she is allowed to speak with the restraint removed. "You really thought my employers would just let me live; the moment you guys captured me I became expendable; or do you not remember how the Senate works; didn't they try and do as much to you... They are just bad at trying to kill people; politicians should leave killing people to professionals.... not their hired thugs...." Ari shrugs "At least I don't have to have Yumi pound your face into the ground for that answer as sarcastic as it was..."

"Can it!" Aidan said loudly, using his drill sergeant voice. "Bridge this is General Thornton. I was the shields up until we are at cruising speed and constant sweep for however this thing got in here. Thornton out. " Turning to Lai-Lee, he offered. "Any other obvious nuggets of wisdom you'd like to impart or can we get on with this?" He said in a softer tone. He wasn't about to lay out any plans or strategies just yet.

"You are asking the woman you captured for tactical advice... I wouldn't be stupid enough to ask you to free me; as that would lead to death; one way or another... however... I can give you want information I have on the senate and their forces... I am a mercenary in effect now... I was forced to work for them in the first place or is capturing you, killing your family and shoving gems inside of you to make you fuck peoples minds implied consent... There is only so much someone who can tear apart and restructure minds can do; when the people she is fighting have the same powers..." She chuckled sarcastically. Ari thought for a moment. "How about I just open the bulkhead to this area and save us all the trouble..." "If it were me; thats what I would do." She said honestly. Ari scoffed. "you'd kill yourself to prove a tactical advantage... Lucky for you he and I have actual people we report to as opposed to your asshole crony bosses...."

"I can certainly understand your plight. Lai-Lee. I have been used far too many times in a political nature, lied to, had friends and comrades killed around me. I would certainly appreciate any useful data or support you would like to give us. I plan to lead us. But let me be blunt since you have no problem with getting to the point. Either follow or get the hell out of our way." Turning to his marines, I want three guards near her heavily armed at all times."
Aidan waited for a response from her. (Barring that, he leaves)

"I guess it is as Veilfloe put it... As much as I may be a prisoner... I am not... It is a respectable way of doing things; something lacking with other governments that just throw you in a stone box and beat you. I can give you locations once we arrive at earth." She replied. The marines take her from the ODM security detail. Ari follows Aidan and Mimi takes the ODM gem guy to medical.

Aidan changes back to BDU's with his level 1 armor still on. After some distance was between them, he said, "i don't know if the Creator is watching us or we just are that damned good. Scary sometimes."

"The robot was an idiot... I mean cmon fighting anyone in a two way hallway; absolutely moronic... As for Echels... If you want my opinion she wanted someone to stop her. She gave up too easily for someone with her powers and now shes just handing us information after Yumi spends what; two hours with her... I mean pain hurts but anyone trained to resist it... She wanted to be found and pulled for information." erin said to him shrugging again. She then pecks him on the cheek almost having to scale him to actually do this. (so short in comparison... almost having to climb him)

"So trust nothing coming out of her mouth. Got it." Aidan said, letting the silence go for second, then added. "Did she want to be captured to aid us, or hurt us? I am not that naive anymore."

"From the emotional shit I get from her with a bit of Sarissa's skills... She wants something... She wants people in her life... Yeah she may have motives but doesn't everyone... As for trusting her... Don't trust anybody... hell even trusting me might end up biting you in the ass... maybe not by either of us intentionally doing things... I'm too impulsive for my own good sometimes... I think you decided to hang around me with that in mind though... Silly little Erin still doesn't know what the hell she's doing with herself..." She shrugged again.

Aidan chuckled once. "I only know the general direction. Been a soldier to long to do anything else and too old to change careers now. But I will tell you, you don't trust yourself enough. Your meteoric rise here is something to be proud of."

"It is like I am the protagonist of some fucked up novel or something... How else would I survive time travel; watching my SO be killed... and still survive; either that or I just love pain..." She shakes her head back an forth in pity for all that she had lost; she had a better life that she did before but losing all the other good things she had were hard. A thought then occurred to her. She looked up at him. "Before work pulled us away..." She grabs his wrist and takes him back to the lift heading to their quarters.

"Are you going to finish that thought?" Aidan said, he mind still reeling from the combat while his body started to deal with the aftereffect of adrenaline rush.

She tilted her head at him as they were on the lift heading back to their quarters. "I am not sure you would like me to finish that thought in public..." She said with a light blush.

It took him a second before realizing what she meant. "Sorry, I get super focused sometimes." he smacked her ass for effect. "Where's your sense of adventure?"
"Then again, my fan club is too large as it is. Spectators might want some for themselves and I don't share well when it comes to that."

When he smacked her ass she almost short up and blushed even more. "Your fan club; I assume in the vulgar terms you mean your short list of female sex partners.... I hope you see some as more than just that..." She turned to him and got right in front of him then jumped into his arms. "You make it hard to not... do this... I don't wanna have sex in a public elevator...." she was apparently trying hard to not just start furiously making out with him.

"Good. I like my women wanton and wanting." Aidan retorted as he winked at her. His look changed as he stared at her."If you weren't important to me, my guilt would not have held me back before now. I honor my relationships. " He started to carry her the rest of the way to their shared room.

She was continuing to blush. “... so we both didn’t just see each other as sex toys...” she leaned into him hugging him and resting her head on his shoulder closing her eyes letting her hormones subside for a brief moment letting the words sink in. “It’s amazing I’ve made it this far... you’re right about that.”
(Happy new year by the way.)

"If I am being honest, it's hard not to look at you and think about very little else. You are one spectacular woman. It's not all you are and I know that. Smart, energetic, and damned sexy. You're the whole package." Aidan offered. "I was in doubt when you first came on board. We've rescued so many that just fill a niche. You weren't satisfied with that and started carving a path."

“I am a journalist who was taught to fight by my uncle who turned out to be like one of the EU guys... I was too stubborn for my own good... it took me through hell and back... I never thought I’d work in intelligence... Sumire was originally more suited for that but I got here before we found her... eh... geez... all this talk might make me an ego maniac...” as they arrived at the door she kisses him.

He kissed her back hard, moving her forcefully against his own body. "I think the discussion portion of the night is over."

Kim · January 6, 2020

Repulse was a few weeks from its destination to a distant planet on the Rim.

Ayano manned her station on the bridge while Kirin and Dezy patrolled the ship to get an idea of the lay out.

Kirin asked Dezy, "If they have a set routine for patrol?"

"If there's a set routine, I haven't been informed," Dezy replied, "I just figured I'd patrol a few areas."

Meanwhile in the Mess Hall…

Maki waited, sitting and with her headphones on as she listened to music from her homeworld. Her thoughts drifted to the time she recently spent with her new friend, Desiree. “Maybe this place is more inviting than I initially assumed it would be.” She thought as she stared out the window. The stars flew by at an impossible rate.

Ayasha padded into the Mess hall still covered in fresh sweat from her workout. Moisture made her white v-cut t-shirt and long cotton shorts cling to her skin. She patted moisture from her face with a towel as she walked over to place her order at the window. "A liter of cold water, and two dragon rolls with extra wasabi, please."

Maki noticed Ayasha, remembering her from the mission and some earlier encounters. She noted that though they were in similar in age, their ideas of acceptable behavior and dress in the mess hall were different. “You’re perspiring,” she commented in a dry monotone with a neutral expression on her face. Her attention fixed on Ayasha; the stars having lost her interest.

With her plate and drink in hand, Ayasha sat near Maki. "I was shown how to use my power armor suit into a full body workout. My muscles might be sore tomorrow, but I prefer to be in top form. Guess, I get that from dad," Ayasha replied.

"Being in top performance for a day of drills, optimum efficiency can be obtained without wrecking yourself. But, oh well. Busting your ass into the ground only works for so long; or so my father told me," Maki shrugged. She was raised to be support and a magic user, so she found how she did things as normal and other people doing things as odd. Then again Ryuji and her idea of training was a light work out to keep themselves fit enough to not die then meditate for days; most of his meditation was in memory of those who died; for her it was building up Mega's power.

"I don't kill myself, but I like to stay limber and have an amount of muscle tone. Plus, the more I can burn calorie wise; I can eat more," Ayasha countered.

Scott custom made an extra strength coffeemaker and wheeled it into the cafeteria with Ceci’s help to share the joy of heart attack coffee.

The little girl AI took Scott’s machine and took it to the mess. Upon walking in the room, Ceci walked over to the table Ayasha and Maki are sitting at and just placed the coffee machine of the ages on the table. "Daddy offers a gift of caffeine and pain," happily announced.

Maki curiously stared at the little android girl controlled by a master AI.

"Caffeine... and pain... what?" Maki asked.

"it keeps you up for months!" Ceci replied.

"No, that amount of caffeine will kill you," Ayasha stated matter-of-factly.

Scott grinned. "I’ve tested it and I’ll vouch for it."

"People only ended up in medical twice using it according to my records..." Ceci added.

Maki casted “detect magic” on Ceci and found even more reason to be confused by the little android.

“Considering that it's a beverage, that is two times too many. There are far more effect ways of staying awake," Ayasha commented.

"So... what is she?" Maki asked confused by Ceci.

"A drug pusher?" Ayasha replied.

"A magical drug dealer... this space place just gets more confusing..." Maki said staring at Ceci.

Scott chuckled, "Well, technically caffeine can be considered a drug."

"..." Maki stared at Ceci some more. The girl stared back at her walking closer and closer until they are right next to each other staring into each other’s eyes.

"First to blink loses," Ayasha quipped.

Maki and Ceci stared at each other.

Aidan walked in, retrieving a large mug of coffee from the food slot. As he turned sipping the liquid. He looked around wondered just what he was witnessing.

Ceci climbed onto Maki's lap, still staring into her eyes and not looking away. The two were now mere inches from each other.

Finally, Aidan decided humor might be better. “Should get you two a room, or a referee?"

"Why a room...?" Maki asked as Ceci inched closer; the little girl was now millimetres from her face. The child just continued to stare

.

"Have you heard of boundaries?" Maki asked but gave no visible reaction. Ceci didn't respond.

Ceci poked Maki to get her to stop staring even if it caused her to lose. The poke was more like a jab. Ceci then wrapped Maki in a crushing hug.

"Ahhh!!! What are you... stop...?!" Maki protested as Ceci resumed the painful hugging. "Let go of me!"

Ceci let go leaving the room to go find something more interesting to do.

Maki was left sitting there confused. "Little brat... what purpose did that serve?" She asked for the first time seeming to show negative emotion; she wasn't happy about nearly being crushed by the little AI child.

Aidan commented, "Ceci is more superweapon than anything else. Don't let the outer covering deceive you. That is not some small child."

"What is she?" Maki asked Aidan figuring she would get an actual answer from him as nobody else seemed to be willing to explain to her what she was.

"Android and science experiment. A Superbomb wrapped as a little girl. I honestly don't know. She's never hurt anyone on our side anyway." Aidan added. "You'd really have to ask Scott Johnson."

Maki nods. "So, the insane scientist... Okay..."

DFS Lavie - Bridge
November 17th 4566; Late Night/Early Morning
(Needs editing)

As Ari was still on the bridge Trent got the notification from the shuttle bay that the last group of crew had arrived on board. Trent informs her "Admiral; all departments report preparations for departure completed most of the crew are back on board... We are waiting for final confirmation from the transporter chief that the last of the crew have arrived on board." Ari nods back to him. "So then... ask Orteria's orbital control for permission to depart upon final confirmation. As soon as we get that confirmation of arrival set course for Earth II and set a course at your leisure." "Yes sir." The reserve helmsmen replies.

Inori YuzurihaToday at 10:02 PM
Dawn would walk up behind Ari and stand by, awaiting her orders.

kevingToday at 10:06 PM
(i just got home)

aqace100Today at 10:07 PM
scott decides to quit practicing juggling and heads to the bridge

masorinToday at 10:10 PM
Hikaru arrived to the bridge immediately walking up to Ari, a smile on his face. "Hello Ari." He said giving a salute, and hoping that she had learned her lesson from last time.

VeilfloeToday at 10:10 PM
(oh not to the bridge, it was er.. i think on that shuttle where aiden and kim were talking that one time, like he posted a picture of it)

atsumariToday at 10:12 PM
"Hi Commander; Take your position." Ari siad pointing to the tactical and security station Trent was at. "Mr. Raven have you tried your hand at flying?" "Yes Admiral." "Since we have no one but a few ensigns on our helm staff to fly the ship... considering your experience... take us out of orbit." Trent nods to her and relieves the poor 19 year old ensign who only got promoted due to war and death; he never even got to finish his second year of the academy and was now flying starships."

OscarToday at 10:15 PM
(I'm here now)

masorinToday at 10:15 PM
"Of course Admiral." For some reason the moment she used his rank instead of his name his return was a lot colder, as he walked over to the security station, and started checking reports.

aqace100Today at 10:16 PM
scott walks into the bridge and says hi to ari

atsumariToday at 10:17 PM
Ari greets Scott "Have you considered working on the bridge; take the engineering post while we leave orbit?" She said to him.

masorinToday at 10:17 PM
As he checked over the reports, he sent a quick message to the mech bay, asking his sister what her situation was, while at the same time sitting looking at Ari with an almost unimpressed snark to him.

atsumariToday at 10:18 PM
Kiyo replied to Hikaru that the pilots were in order; their belongings were on the ship and she had a "gift" for him the next time they saw each other.

aqace100Today at 10:20 PM
scott considers it for a second and debates the merits of a bridge position that could lead to him killing everyone or staying in the bowels of the ship able to deter people from investigating the weird cackling laughter and ominous screams of pain that may or may not emanate from ned's forge.....he takes the engineering post and tells ari

masorinToday at 10:20 PM
"one gift at a time sis, btw, would you like to help me train my new pet, she's refusing to be house broken, won't bark on command yet." CC Ari

atsumariToday at 10:22 PM
Ari seemingly detecting the energy in the room replies to Hikaru over VX. "Look; job... K... I thought we went over this... were in the middle of like super deadly times... me jumping INTO your arms at every moment when I have to order a bunch of dumbasses that are like 15 to not be 14 year old girls and get themselves killed in a war.... In other words personal time - personal time... work... Well my boy... is work... I am going to tie you to a chair and shove hot pepper up your dick if you keep this up...." Ari nods to Scott as if she's not telling someone she is going to subject them to sexual torture.

aqace100Today at 10:23 PM
scott vxs ari telling her not to investigate neds forge

OscarToday at 10:24 PM
(Wait, do I have a VX implant now?)

aqace100Today at 10:24 PM
(probably)

OscarToday at 10:24 PM
(Thought so.)

aqace100Today at 10:25 PM
scott laughs to himself about the hikaru show

masorinToday at 10:26 PM
Hikaru shook his head, all things were clear on his terminal, so he just sent a vx back. "All I want is for you to say hi, and use my name instead of a rank, I'm not asking for PDA, I am a professional, could you get your mind out of the gutter?"

VeilfloeToday at 10:28 PM
(yeah it took me a minute to realize i had my VX)

atsumariToday at 10:30 PM
"Oh... uh... Sorry; I was totally thinking you wanted me to like go HAI I LUFFF YOU!!!!!!!! and like hugs all day or some shit... Okay.... :hug: " Ari replied to Hikaru over VX. "How was your trip here Hikaru?" Ari asked him.

Inori YuzurihaToday at 10:30 PM
(back)

aqace100Today at 10:32 PM
(josh i sent a vx to ari)

masorinToday at 10:32 PM
"I actually ended up taking a shuttle, I wanted to do rounds on the ground before we left, checking the ports security before I left. Helps me get back into the mindset of working. The mansion was a nice little vacation, but I was born on a ship, and I've spent more time in a cramped mech, I'm actually really glad to be back in an enclosed space." Hikaru spoke with Ari passing her a warm genuine smile. "It was uneventful for the most part."

kevingToday at 10:33 PM
kirin sends a message to commander over VX, "i think i am ready for next mission or deployment mam. any place i would need to meet up at?"

atsumariToday at 10:34 PM
"Totally uneventful but fun no less...." Ari replied to Hikaru and then replied to Kirin over VX "If you are on the Lavie we will have more orders for you once we arrive."
"All crew hands reported on board by operations." Zoe replies from the operations position on the bridge.

aqace100Today at 10:36 PM
scott heads back to his office to plan the doom of the fleet i mean a planet

masorinToday at 10:38 PM
(discord chat crashed for me)

Inori YuzurihaToday at 10:40 PM
(-sips boomer juice-)
(at me or dm me when i need to respond im being dragged into a thing for another group
)

OscarToday at 10:46 PM
I appear on the bridge via teleporter and greet everyone.
"Yo, I'm here now."

atsumariToday at 10:50 PM
Once Ari got confirmation from Zoe "Alright; so Trent.... take us out." "Yes Admiral; orbital control reports permission to leave orbit" "Aye." As Oscar walks into the bridge one of the marine guards looks at him. Ari laughs. "You know... in the future beaming straight onto the bridge could get you shot in some ships you are good now though..." Ari advises him.
ACTION: As Trent activates the engines the ship moves to leave orbit.

OscarToday at 11:02 PM
I respond to Ari, chuckling and grinning a bit.
"It's fine..~ I have fast reflexes."
Then I walk over to a wall and lean on it.

atsumariToday at 11:04 PM
She chuckles "You can't outrun Lumiere.... She'd just teleport you into space..." She shrugs.
(Final posts since its getting to a point where there is not much left for the group post)

OscarToday at 11:05 PM
"Good point." I shrug as well.
"Even I'm not powerful enough to avoid something like that..~"

Atsumari · January 9, 2020

Erin "Ari" Mizriki
Captain Gainz
November 18th 4566; Afternoon
Admiral Mizriki's Office; TFS Lavie/ Ice Hell/ Karv'atku

Ari while bored after they left Orteria had gathered her gems And begin practicing with her portal power… The few times she had used it so far she hadn’t screwed up and so she just was teleporting from one part of the ship to another. She apparently had reached the end of her luck as one particular portal caused her to arrive… Somewhere. She looked around the planet and it seemed to be nowhere she had been before… She thought that her uncle told her that she couldn’t go anywhere she hadn’t been before... The planet was covered in snow and in just her short sleeve blouse and skirt she wasn’t exactly warm. “What the fuck!?” She whines freezing as the violence of the blizzard nearly blows her skirt away. She hurriedly creates another portal going through...

MomoSSYesterday at 7:57 PM
When she arrives on the other side, she arrives on a planet that seems to be in pure chaos with anthromorphic insectoids attempting to defeat some...short man with orange hair by any means necessary. The small statured man seemingly overpowering all of them, even their big tough looking ones. The bug people even have ships that they are trying to crash into him and explosions are happening, but the man just walks through the flames causing some of the insectoids to fear that he may be some kind of demon. Some of them flee in terror.

atsumariYesterday at 8:02 PM
Ari Close is the portal looking around at all of the death and destruction… She pulls out her phone takes a picture of all of the massive explosions and death and says “well this is going to be my new wallpaper” she then sees the figure approaching as they ship fires a torpedo at him and it just explodes. He then just walks all bad ass like through the flame and explosions out of the ensuing smoke. His white cape just being all amazing and looking as bad ass as ever. One of the bugs gets the great idea to come at Ari, only as the bug approaches her it falls through hole and ends up on the ice planet she was just on. “Nope... totally not my type...” she said as the bug was falling through the hole. She glances over at Gainz as he approaches. “ I figured it was you… I mean who else would cause this level of death… The other guard guys seem kind of like pansies they would just blow up the planet instead of fighting them all by hand...” she shrugs and then socks him in the shoulder. “ what’s with you and always running off on me... and where the fuck are we anyway?” She crosses her arms.

MomoSSYesterday at 8:08 PM
"Heh, I apologize. We are apparently in some place called 'Karv'atku. Had to track down these bugs to their source. Blowing up a whole planet has unforeseen consequences to the spatial environment of the galaxy. It's hard to explain, so I figured I'd just handle things on the surface." Gainz said. He then gives a curious look at her. "How'd you even get here? Pretty sure im hella far from where you guys were."

atsumariYesterday at 8:13 PM
Ari puts her hands on her hips. “ how did I get here... eh... I mean sure that’s important but like; no running up and patting me on the head, no hug, no sorry for leaving you crying by an elevator after basically dumping me...” she turns around looking away from him but looking at the wall of bugs that are still there seemingly paralyzed in fear. “I guess I can excuse that this once.... I mean after all the fuckers are still alive so A heartfelt reunion wouldn’t exactly be appropriate in front of these pervy bugs... after all they probably lead to tentacle monsters at some point so they all need to die... go on; finish them off...”

MomoSSYesterday at 8:18 PM
More grunts of the insectoid army spot Gainz and flee in terror screaming things in high pitch. "Ari... has it really been that long? (The time didnt seem long to him, space/time stuff) To be honest, I lost track of the time of how long this battle has been going on. I'm sorry..." Gainz said, giving her a light gentle pat on her shoulder.

atsumariYesterday at 8:20 PM
“... it’s only been like a month but yeah for all of us this month seems like it’s been 30 years; i’m surprised I’m not an old hag by now... my uncle’s gems are how I got here... pretty badass stuff but what can you expect coming from the pansy’s you work for; they would much rather fuck with the universe then actually fix it.” She shrugs. “ so have you been fighting these stupid like wannabe Swarm guys this entire time?”

MomoSSYesterday at 8:22 PM
Gainz looks at Ari with a blank face blinking a few times like hes surprised a month has gone by. "Well...yeah. Shit I thought this was only going on for like a week" Gainz said with a slight chuckle while with his hand holding the back of his head.

atsumariYesterday at 8:23 PM
“ yeah I’ve just stopped looking at the calendar… Time in this future is so fucked up it’s like you think six months has gone by and it’s been three days...”
“ you think they made it to torture us 20th century folk?”

MomoSSYesterday at 8:27 PM
"Time is relative. For someone traveling it could seem like only a day goes by and for someone else its been 100 years. Time is crazy like that. Space and Time are intertwined in strange ways." Gainz says. "Really a month. You guys still dealing with the swarm?" Gainz asked

atsumariYesterday at 8:29 PM
“ they actually disappeared for some reason… like we defeated one part of them and then they just went away... Remi is queen now... and the senate are still being corrupt asshole pricks... why didn’t you kill every last one of them when you have a chance I mean come on just annihilating the entire Senate would saved everyone a shit load of crap...” She shrugs; again. Ari then looks directly into his eyes with her hazel ones and hugs him. “ it’s good to see you even if it’s in the middle of a war zone and I just kind of randomly ended up here...”

MomoSSYesterday at 8:33 PM
Gainz embraces her. She could probably feel how warm he is since his body gives off more heat than normal people, probably even more now since hes been fighting. "It's good to see you too Ari. I'm glad you've been doing alright." Gainz said. As the hug parts a little his red eyes meets hers for a moment, but then he senses something and they trail off to the side as something comes up from underground. A massive rumble and then a very large humanoid shaped bug with gold markings comes out. It looks pretty pissed.

atsumariYesterday at 8:33 PM
Ari laughs at whatever it is… It is not seem very happy to see them.

MomoSSYesterday at 8:40 PM
Gainz instinctively moves in front of Ari as he glances over at the large humanoid bug. Other than that he doesnt seem phased at all. "Was about time, was wondering if I accidentally killed you already." Gainz said tauntingly. "DEMON, YOU COME TO MY WORLD & DISGRACE OUR EMPIRE. HOW DARE YOU. WE ARE RIGHTFUL HEIRS TO ALL OF THIS QUADRANT. YOUR SPECIES ARE PESTS...TO BE OUR FOOD AT BEST." the giant bug guy says. "Tch, see thats where you messed up a-aron. You got your food chain all fucked up. You cant just go around to other sentient beings places and start tearing up the stuff and not expect any consequences. And I'm the furthest from any bug food nigga." Gainz says

atsumariYesterday at 8:43 PM
Ari smirks at his words. “ that’s why I love you… Such a bad ass” she summons armor out of nowhere a full body powered suit protects her as she uses her powers making a sort of reverse portal within the area that they’re fighting to stop the others from joining battle. “Sorry; this is a one on one battle shit for brains.” She said to the other bugs which were fearful standing all around the battlefield.
(basically if the other bugs try to join the battle they end up teleported to that ice planet)
(so they freeze to death in the middle of a blizzard)

MomoSSYesterday at 8:49 PM
"DEMON, I WILL PERSONALLY SEE TO YOUR DESTRUCTION. I KNOW OF YOUR KIND...YOUR KI POWER, YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE TO POSESS IT. I WILL CRUSH YOU AND AFTER OUR EMPIRE IS REBUILT WE WILL SHOW NO MERCY TO YOUR KIND." the giant bug guy says. Gainz raises an eyebrow. "Interesting. Alright, I'll call your bluff bitch. Give it yo best shot, bitch ass." Gainz says with his arms out like 'come at me'. Interestingly enough the bug leader does seem to generate some kind of energy, but its not KI. It's some energy being pumped through by whatever he is wearing that makes it so he has the potential to combat some KI. The bug leader charges at Gainz and attempts to strike him with a glowing claw and Gainz just catches it with one hand. The bug leader is completely caught off guard by the sudden strength that he didnt sense before. "Let me let you in on a little secret. This whole battle....I was holding back." Gainz said. The bug leader's eyes widened before Gainz just tears his claw off with a flick of the rest.

atsumariYesterday at 8:51 PM
“RIP... Time to die.... Demon.” Ari taunted the bug leader.

MomoSSYesterday at 8:56 PM
Gainz suddenly turns serious and goes into a hyper mode state where his hair stands up and goes intense. A fiery Ki aura forms around him and spirit pressure is enough that anything weak near him could feel the air press against them. The bug leader senses intense danger, and his instincts are now screaming to flee. "N-NO! Y-YOU ARE TRULY THE DEMON INCARNATE! AWAY FROM ME....GET AWAY FROM ME YOU MONSTER!" the bug leader says. The bug leader scrambles but as he gets up he notices Gainz is no longer behind him but now is in front of him. He moved... -that quick. Gainz moved the palm of his hand in front of the bug leader's face and in an instant a massive Ki energy blast obliterated the guy and left a scalding hole in the ground that trailed for 300 feet.

Capturing him obliterating liter

MomoSSYesterday at 8:59 PM
Gainz looked truly scary in that state. He seemed stronger even than that time he went up against the Phoenix. But as fast as he entered it, the Ki energy dissipated as he let go and went back to normal. He walked back over to Ari. "Sorry. Guy was kinda annoying and I wanted to let loose a little. The spirit pressure didnt hurt you did it?" Gainz asked.

atsumariYesterday at 9:02 PM
“Nope... remember who my uncle is; he trained me... kinda fucked but no wonder a little girl like me was able to beat peoples asses... Heh...” she lowers back to the ground and her armor disappears revealing her once more. She gracefully lands on her feet like a cat. “Hum... so who do you have to fuck next? Any idea when we can expect you back?” She asked coming back to him.

MomoSSYesterday at 9:09 PM
"Im unsure how extensive these bug peoples 'empire' actually is. They are just as persistent as roaches, they just keep coming. Heh, thats what she said... But even with the remnants running around, I think I'm done here. Besides, you gotta leave a few of them alive to tell the rest of their clan that theres some crazy black man annihilating everyone. If your friends with "the demon" it'll make em think twice before fucking with yall again." Gainz said as he crossed his arms with smugness.

atsumariYesterday at 9:11 PM
“I’d let you mess with me any time... but that’s beside the point... So you wanna come help us fuck this cult and the senate once you’re done with these bugs?” She asked.
(Got work in the morning too so we should wrap up soon; short but fun)

MomoSSYesterday at 9:17 PM
Gainz grinned at her comment and approached close to Ari. He let his finger trail down the side of her face to kinda tease the urges. "A cult and the senate. I wouldnt mind a refreshing change of pace, sounds fun. After I rearrange all the leadership here I'll make my way back." Gainz said with a smile.
(yeah probably should)

atsumariYesterday at 9:19 PM
“Okay... I look forward to it...” she kisses him. “I gotta find my way home now... otherwise I’d stay and let you play with me...” she winks before summoning a portal hugging him before entering it.

Erin "Ari" Mizriki
Aidan Thornton
Oscar
Kirin Dragmawl
November 18th 4566; Evening
Admiral Mizriki's Office/Holodeck 1; TFS Lavie

<START SIM>
Ari was now in her office looking over the files of the three newbies they had. "Like seriously I mean these guys seem like military rejects; but then again so did I when that Major shoved a job in my face and told me how stupid I was... I guess its time to see what he can actually do..." She messages Aidan to have one of the holodecks set to one of his marine battle simulations and for him to wait for her there. She then messaged Oscar simply telling him to report to the holodeck.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:31 PM
Aidan acknowledged the message, wondering when her lost command. He got up and started got the holodeck

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:33 PM
I arrive to the holodeck after a bit, as I had been resting in case I was needed for something.
"I'm here now."
I yawn slightly and stretch a bit on the spot.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:36 PM
Aidan walked in. Tapping commands on the control panel. It faded as the scenery changed to a plain on Oreteria.

atsumari 24-Jan-20 08:36 PM
Ari soon arrives in her uniform. One of the few times she wore one. "Lets hope you are not as useless as my mother. So your superiors gave you to us... and you say you can be useful; at the risk of sounding like a bitch... Show us. Words a cheap."
Added a recipient.
(For when you get home Kev)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:40 PM
"Sure, I can show you what I can do. But I can't use my biomagnetism for now.. I need a bit more time for that."
He shrugs and takes his jacket off a bit after, clenching his fists several times and stretching some more.
"So, what would you like to see first?" (edited)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 08:45 PM
"Well... How can I respond to that if I don't know what you can do in the first place; your personnel file didn't list much and I assume that was on purpose. This is a combat simulation; please treat it like an actual battle or I'll disable the safeties... Our medical team is pretty good at putting people back together if they get messed up." She chuckled. "and to show you anything you do won't harm the room..." She pulls out a lightning gem and attempts to fire lightning into the holodeck. The attack does not physical damage to the room. "Part of our systems in the training rooms is designed to prevent damage. Dr. Johnson could explain more but that is not important."

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:46 PM
Aidan vx'd the ship. Power armor materialized over his body. He wasn't taking any chances with untested powers. Kevin made him learn that lesson. (edited)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 08:47 PM
At first a giant ant appears in the room; it is stationary. "Level one." The system replies.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:49 PM
The power armor shuddered at bit, Aidan unable to completely control the action (edited)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:50 PM
"Well, I'm glad that I at least can't break the ship now. Not that I can recall most of my stronger moves yet." I take a combat stance, clenching both of my fists and staring at the giant ant. (edited)
(I can't do much though, mostly basic attacks and dodges)
(Since my moves aren't exactly ready for this rp, the stats are still fucked up)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:52 PM
(this ant is the size of a couch.)
(fuck the stats, concentrate on the writing)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:53 PM
(Ik, Oscar can beat that thing with basics alone)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 08:53 PM
(erm; you can use yoru guys abilities; just becuase they are not stated down in stone doesnt mean anything; this is as much for story as it is for the GM team and council staff to see what your powers actually are in a situation; basically preventing too much OPness)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:56 PM
(Dunno about op, that thing will probably die if I use a few abilities)
(For basic attacks it would take like 5-10 maybe)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 08:57 PM
(Write my boy)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 08:57 PM
(not if it tears you apart in two)
(mwa ha ha)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 08:59 PM
(So no dice for this battle, perfect.)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:00 PM
(I'm home now we're do you want me to come In at)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:01 PM
(up to you; just seeing how this new guys does in combat Kev)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:04 PM
Kirin sends a message to ari asking, "is there anything I can help with today or need to be done around the ship"

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:05 PM
I quickly approach the ant and launch my "Hundred Fists" on it, depleting most of it's health, then launching another skill "Punch Through" in succession, finishing it off.

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:05 PM
"Come to holodeck 1." She replied to Kirin.
The bug was montionless as it is killed. Level 1 the creature does not fight back. "Completed. Level 2." Another bug appears but this one can move and spit acid.

keving 24-Jan-20 09:06 PM
Kirin starts to make his way to holodeck 1 as ordered

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:11 PM
I takes a health drink out of my pocket and quickly gulp it down, increasing my damage for a bit.
"Hope this one goes down quickly as well."
(Does the bug get a turn? Or can I just smash it)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:12 PM
When he drinks the creature moves to the left and lets out a screeeeeee sound . It waits.
(it tried to debuff you with fear)
As Kirin arrives outside the notices a program is active.

keving 24-Jan-20 09:15 PM
Kirin approachs the door of the holodeck and looked at what program that is active and then proceed to buzz the door and waits for an answer

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:15 PM
The door automatically opens

keving 24-Jan-20 09:16 PM
Kirin walks in and looks around to see what is going on

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:16 PM
I stare at the ant, completely unaffected by the screech.
"Trying to scare me, insect? Gimme a break."
I clench my fists again as I grin.
"I'll just smash it then."
I quickly move to the ant's side and jump at the ant with "Punch Through", launching it up in the air. I then jump up to chase it and use "Neck Grab" to throw it at the ground, finishing it with a kick on the back of it's head.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:24 PM
(that's a lot of moves for one round)
(especially and an the size of a lion) (edited)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:24 PM
(Well okay, I could just kill it with one but I thought it would be going overboard)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:25 PM
(sounds like a monk move set get in close knockup ward then smash down in one turn)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:25 PM
"Damn, I think I way overdid that.."
I stroke the back of my head as I sigh.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:25 PM
(right now it training and more a writing exercise. Later during combat would be rolling to hit and dodge)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:26 PM
(Yea, not to mention a move takes your turn so I'll hardly be able to chain my skills in real combat)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:26 PM
Ari turns up the difficulty since she feels he is getting too confident.

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:27 PM
The computer announces "Level 3". Two ants appear, these are a redder tint, and start charging as soon as they appear.

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:27 PM
(Unless the knockup is high enough I guess)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:28 PM
Kirin notices it is an training exercise sits back and waits to a point the new guy needs help

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:28 PM
Oscar dodges the other ant's attack, then punches the other ant hard enough to send it flying backwards.
"I think I overestimated these ants and used a bit too much power, I'll need another drink soon." (edited)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:30 PM
As the one ant is killed the other rights itself and spits a red acid towards Oscar. (edited)
(brb)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:34 PM
I use "Combat Dodge" to dodge the acid and move behind the ant, then using "Neck Grab" on it, smashing it into the ground and then kicking it so it flies and hits the (wall?), finishing it off.

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:35 PM
As he goes to finish it off he is ensnared in an invisible web of sorts.

keving 24-Jan-20 09:36 PM
Kirin uses aura sense to see were the strings are attached to

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:37 PM
A third bug is further away atop a building far off in the distance. It seems to just be launching webs froma distance unnoticed.

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:40 PM
"Ugh.. Webs are always annoying, I hate it when they get stuck on my face."
I use "Cancel" to get the webs off me, a small pulse emanating from me in a 4 meter radius.

keving 24-Jan-20 09:42 PM
Kirin lay his hand on his hilt of the sword and active the red gem, swinging the sword toward the creature setting it and the string a blaze with yellow and red flames

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:45 PM
"Ah, thanks for the help. Right now I'm not really in a state where I could deal with enemies that are far away. Close quarters is where I am at my strongest after all."
(I mean he gets ranged moves as he becomes more powerful so at the end he will be pretty balanced.)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:46 PM
The computer announces "Level 4, randomizing enemies". Two large mechanical spiders appear. The ground rumbles as they approach, their metallic black skin glossy in the noon sun.

keving 24-Jan-20 09:46 PM
(it isn't to bad to be versitile in close and range attacks)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:47 PM
(Hint, they weigh a ton each)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:47 PM
(How high are we going with the levels?)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:48 PM
(Ask Josh)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:48 PM
(ok so they are slow moving spiders that can't be knocked up)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 09:48 PM
(probably not much further; I'm probably going ot move to a one on one before sleep soon; ast least people showed up though)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:48 PM
(Fair enough)
(I just need to know when it's the last level, since that's when I'll use my special move.)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:52 PM
The spiders get close enough to start spitting webs. Thick as a climbing rope, one latches onto Oscar and starts reeling him in.

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:54 PM
I activate my "Empowered State" and chop the web.
"Guess I'll go all out."

keving 24-Jan-20 09:56 PM
"I guess you got one I'll get the other or do you think you can handle both of them" Kirin ask

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:57 PM
The other spider by now is within arms reach of Kevin and tries for a grapple with its powerful pinchers. (edited)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:59 PM
"I think I can handle this."
I drink another health drink to restore some of my depleted power and health. I then dash to help Kevin by landing a powerful chop on the pincher, loosening the grip so Kevin is released. (edited)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 09:59 PM
(you can break tritanium?)

keving 24-Jan-20 09:59 PM
Kirin rolls out of the way of the Pinchers and shoots balls of lightning at it to immobilized it

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 09:59 PM
(Empowered state, normal state probably impossible)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:00 PM
(no probably about it. Go break a leaf spring)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:01 PM
(Fair enough, I'll edit it. But if I cast the special move now, Kev will get caught up in it)
(Possibly)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:01 PM
(you won't be able to break tritanium with bear hands)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:01 PM
(remember guys there are enemies that Marine fight.)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:02 PM
(Yeah, if I had those gauntlet/brass knuckle-ish thingys I would probably be able to)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:02 PM
One spider is immoblized, the other shrieks loud enough to cause physical pain.

keving 24-Jan-20 10:03 PM
kirin holds his ears due to the load noise of the shriek and lets out a scream of pain then a gust of wind starts to pick up
(kirin is very sensitive to the load noises with enhanced hearing of the neko part of him) (edited)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:04 PM
( I don't think the robot spider cares )

keving 24-Jan-20 10:05 PM
(i dont think they would either but i thought you guys might of cared) (edited)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:05 PM
(teasing)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:05 PM
The small health regen that my health drink gives me kicks in, but I still feel some pain and it shows up on my face.
"Ugh.. How the fuck does a shriek cause physical pain, seriously..?"

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:06 PM
(go shooting with me, you will learn quickly)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:06 PM
(I need breakfast )

MomoSS 24-Jan-20 10:07 PM
(Lol Tugar, i learned that the hard way not too long ago)
(guns are fucking loud)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:07 PM
(tugar im pretty sure you know what is about to happen with the gust of wind starting o pick up)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:07 PM
(Do people not wear ear protection when they go shooting, wtf?)

MomoSS 24-Jan-20 10:07 PM
(we DO, its loud even with it)
(every shot felt like having a car accident)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:08 PM
The immobilized spider starts to move again, it's spinneret throwing off a vast network of entangling webs, trapping the both fighters.
It's partner moves in closer as it hasn't been impaired.

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:09 PM
"Guess I'll have to use "that" then."

atsumari 24-Jan-20 10:09 PM
(I’ll be doing a one on one soon)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:09 PM
(I'm down for that after breakfast)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:10 PM
The other spider spews gas at the half immobilized pair.
(poison gas. yes it's green)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:13 PM
as the gas starts to head towards kirin and the new member of the crew while they are partly immobalized kirin starts to chant the summing of fenrir

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:13 PM
(what the hell is a fenrir)
(you aren't going to kill the lavie are you?)

MomoSS 24-Jan-20 10:14 PM
(a cute puppers)
(Lol)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:14 PM
(fenrir is a wind dog ill send you the file of all the summons and no it isnt going to destroy the lavie)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:15 PM
(that thing the hulk fought in Ragnarok?)

atsumari 24-Jan-20 10:15 PM
(Ten minutes then we pause/end)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:16 PM
(the size of fenrir is no bigger than a size of the caster) (edited)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:16 PM
I release a shockwave that blows the gas away, then pulling the spiders towards me with a wave of power. Then I immobilize them with a powerful stomp on the ground, hit them repeatedly, and then delivering a Phase Force-charged punch, sending forth a shock wave to attack the spiders. Then I slam the ground twice, creating a shockwave that finishes them off. (edited)
(Special move logic)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:17 PM
(no ants)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:17 PM
(it is mechanical spiders)

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:17 PM
(Spiders, sry am still sleepy) (edited)

Tugar 24-Jan-20 10:19 PM
As you shockwave the spiders, they self destruct, their fusion reactors go critical, blowing both of you off your feet. The holodeck resets to lined walls. (edited)
Aidan chuckles. "Nice. You're both dead."

Oscar-senpai 24-Jan-20 10:20 PM
My consciousness fades as I used up the last of my power when I casted the special move. (edited)

keving 24-Jan-20 10:20 PM

AidanYesterday at 8:34 PM
Aidan was in one of those rare moments where he had a few minutes of free time. He headed to the Mess hall for a quick snack and fresh coffee.
They were serving roast beef wraps with avocado and horseradish mayo. He grabbed two along with fries, opting for a coffee shake and fresh apple pie topped with sharp cheddar. He sat down and started to work on his meal.

atsumariYesterday at 8:40 PM
As Aidan was getting food Ayano walked in. She got food as well.

AidanYesterday at 8:41 PM
His mouth full of food as usual when he spotted Ayano, he motioned for her to join him.

Inori YuzurihaYesterday at 8:48 PM
Dawn was in the room Seleni was assigned, sitting on the bed, in what looked like a state of meditation.

atsumariYesterday at 8:49 PM
Ayano joins him nodding. "So between my mech training and all... what is going on exactly with you?" She asked.

AidanYesterday at 8:53 PM
He chuckled between mouthfuls. "Same here. Whipping up the tactical teams shape. You know the drill. Sharpen the edge, then sharpen some more." He took a sip of the shake. "Slighty weird with Erin and I sharing that big ass dual quarters, but no more than usual around here."

atsumariYesterday at 8:56 PM
"The one you used to share with older me?" Ayano said after taking a bite.

AidanYesterday at 8:59 PM
"Yeah. probably enough room there for 5 people, but rank doth have it's privleges." He paused for a second. "How are you settling in to the new situations. I know we haven't had much of a chance to commiserate much lately." He asked, genuinely concerned.

atsumariYesterday at 9:05 PM
"I mean; work work work... Like I haven't had much time to myself but that is to be expected I guess..." Ayano said shrugging. "Has other me even tried to talk to you or? and... So why you and Mizriki sharing a room... kinda the same arrangement you have with Sumire?" She probed.

aqace100Yesterday at 9:05 PM
scott also makes some SUPER cloaks for giggles

AidanYesterday at 9:09 PM
"Pretty much. Erin and I have more of a mutual admiration thing going on. We haven't have any time to do anything other than work, again as usual. I don't know if we will ever go that far." Aidan shrugged. "And no, your evil twin sister hasn't said so much as boo to me. Especially since we aren't exactly on the same side anymore."
"I assume she put me out of her mind, as I have her. I'll never wish her ill, but we both made our choices."

atsumariYesterday at 9:13 PM
"Not on the same side? erm... Trinity works for Orteria though right?" She asked.

Meanwhile as Ari is continuing to go through files she got an email with a literal wall of information. "Eh... where'd this come from..." The email it was contained to it had this emoji :uniflex:

AidanYesterday at 9:18 PM
"It's....complicated. Right now I just want to get this next mission over with and get us some breathing room."

atsumariYesterday at 9:21 PM
"I could definitely agree with wanting all this to be over... I still need to find myself..." Ayano said knowing that would sound odd but the whole situation was odd.

"I will help where I can, you know that. I hope I am not making it worse by being in your life." Aidan said honestly.

For a while things are going as usual for Ari as she tends to her violet flower but then for a split second there is a strange sensation like theres someone else here and then poof! Gainz appears teleporting almost near on top of her and unfortunately landing on her flower. Gainz gets up haphazardly. "Oh I'm so sorry. Shit, that teleport didnt go well at all. My bad."

atsumariToday at 6:28 PM
As something starts to appear she steps back and Gainz appears having crushed the poor little flower she had been working on for months. "God damn it... Can't you just like use a teleporter like everyone else... I mean god... And your bad; guy what if you appeared inside of me... L2P... Learn to Powers.... FFS....!!!"

MomoSSToday at 6:30 PM
"Well they didnt exactly have any working teleporters at that bug planet anymore... and besides, if I always use the teleporter I'll never learn to master this ability. Speaking of that...I've been trying to work on the other stuff besides combat." Gainz says. He walks over to the plant and gently touches it to mend it back to life and have it stand up again.

atsumariToday at 6:32 PM
"I meant like use your powers to a teleporter; like memorize exact locations or something...And-" She was about to yell at him more but upon him repairing the damage she stops. "Your like a living blue gem or something... Cool... So how did fucking those humanoid bug things go for you; did you piss on someone's grave?"

MomoSSToday at 6:35 PM
"I fucked their shit up. The swarm from there wont be a problem anymore, indefinitely. Any remnants on other worlds will probably think twice before getting on the 'demon's' bad side again. How you guy's been?" Gainz said with a grin.

atsumariToday at 6:38 PM
"Orteria was fucked by a cult that thought it would be a cool idea to revive the Phoenix inside of a reincarnated, more magically epic version of Flennel Lanreth... You remember our engineer girl who made herself a badass gem suit... Yeah... totally not thought out well by that cult; as if they could control the Phoenix... Now we are hunting senators cause one of their contractors was sent to basically mind control people and use the Phoenix to be more badass... Yeah enslaving the galaxy, giving people something to fight... Typical government propaganda shit." She explains.

MomoSSToday at 6:41 PM
"The more things change the more they stay the same. Thats what Nicol told me once... The battle never ends, theres always someone else's shit waiting to get fucked up. I'll probably need to report to Skynet soon and see how things have been. I realize how much time has gone by now, sheesh didnt feel like that long. Vanilla's gonna kill me." Gainz said. The AI in his scouter commented "Impossible." "Heh, not literally." Gainz replied.

atsumariToday at 6:43 PM
"It has only been like a month but yeah; just up and leaving... Like you middle fingered me before you left but you didn't even tell her y ou were leaving; she will KEEL you; much death for you..."

MomoSSToday at 6:44 PM
"Well I...I didnt realize how much time goes by when going to different planets. You go off somewhere and to you its literally a couple days but to everyone else its...a month. I'll take it like a man." Gainz said.

atsumariToday at 6:45 PM
"So you wanna help us deal with these guys once and for all... so we can stop them from trying to revive evil demons... I mean being stupid is something we can deal with but; yeah "Lets revive the Phoenix" They kinda need to be taken out back and put to pasture." She said as if murdering corrupt senators was an every day practice.

MomoSSToday at 6:47 PM
"Senators... were they not those people we wrecked that other time?" Gainz asked

atsumariToday at 6:49 PM
"yes; some escaped. Aidan wants to go all Rambo with them and get himself killed; I am too young to get blown up by a crashed ship... Totally would be a waste of my good looks and talent." She teases.

MomoSSToday at 6:51 PM
"That it would be..." Gainz says as he approaches closer and gently nudges her with his hand. "I think another visit sounds like fun. Probably wont even work up a sweat, but there are other things besides combat that can do that." Gainz said with a grin.

atsumariToday at 6:54 PM
"Plus we dont exactly know what they have; if they are trying to revive the Phoenix something tells me these guys might have something else in mind or some super magical crap up their sleeves... I mean Skynet did make you after all and it was originally created by a bunch of smug science bastards locked in a room for generations... Imagine how much smug old men who wanna watch little girls undress could do with a lot of money and power... Probably not safe to let the pedo old men run around unattended much longer... We should castrate them."

MomoSSToday at 6:58 PM
"We will deal with them. Whatever they got planned...it wont be enough. Gainz says as he punches his fists together. He does it strong enough to where you can feel wind off of it like a mild shockwave.

atsumariToday at 7:01 PM
Ari turns off the program and the flower and snowy environment disappear along with her winter clothes. She is not just in her usual. "So... I think your quarters are still a thing... I mean we are on radio silence cause we dont want those guys ot hear us coming... And yeah... lots could be done ot pass time..." She said heading out of the holodeck.

MomoSSToday at 7:02 PM
"Before I head there, I should return to Skynet Japan and let Vanilla give me an earfull. I'm sure the people at the tech division has an update they wanna give to my suit as well...though honestly, I think its just for looks at this point. Let the folks know I'm back. I'll be in touch. Hopefully teleporting wont go bad this time around." Gainz says, he winks and gives a thumbs up.

atsumariToday at 7:04 PM
"You should also ask them where the Requiem is... Lilliana like disappeared; probably on purpose though... Knowing Skynet lurking is probably happening." Ari said.

MomoSSToday at 7:05 PM
"Hmm..." Gainz puts on his scouter and checks in on the Skynet network. "Shes not gone, shes in stealth mode." Gainz says

atsumariToday at 7:05 PM
(In short shes following them cloaked to make sure the senate doesnt kill them since they are of value to skynet; you know they can defeat Skynets enemies)
"Stealth... so cloaking..."
"But where... and why?" Ari asked.

MomoSSToday at 7:07 PM
"Probably. The Skynet I know back in the day didnt have this technology back then, but its the future so, I guess they better have something like that now, haha. Ah...lemmie dig in a bit more" Gainz says as he taps into his scouter.
(Now Gainz since hes tied to the Skynet network would find out where she is. But me as a person has no idea where she would be LOL)

atsumariToday at 7:08 PM
(shes following the Lavie)

MomoSSToday at 7:08 PM
(Ah ok so shes right outside? LOL)

atsumariToday at 7:08 PM
(like I said making sure the Senate doesnt kill them)
(yes)

MomoSSToday at 7:08 PM
"Hah, shes right here. Shes following you guys." Gainz says.
"Shes about 1000 ft away from the Lavie" Gainz replies.

atsumariToday at 7:10 PM
"... Huh... would have been nice to have said something... Whatever though; its not like you say anything when you go places too..." Ari shrugs heading down the hall to her office. "Well... Go see vanilla... I will be in my office; we seriously gotta help you learn your teleporting power though...."

MomoSSToday at 7:11 PM
"I'm getting better at it you know, the more I use it the more I understand it. At first I was ending up all over the damn place. Was crazy some of the places I've ended up trying to go to and from here. I think I even met a dragon once. One day I'll get it, I promise." Gainz says.

atsumariToday at 7:12 PM
"You mean other than Arisa?" She asked

MomoSSToday at 7:13 PM
"It's been a while back. I know one of them talked to me, maybe that was her. I swear I met another one though..." Gainz says. He shrugs since hes unsure.

atsumariToday at 7:13 PM
"This whole fucking place is an anime... we have you... a catgirl... a dragon who stays in human form and tries to act like a high school girl... how much more cliche can you get...." She chuckles.
"Seriously the next time gods fight all thats going to happen the whole mission is screaming... I know its coming..."
She continues to mumble about how things will be then shakes her head walking off into the distance of the hall.
(you good?)

MomoSSToday at 7:15 PM
(yeah)

Ayano was making the final touches on the Judgment for it to be taken out with the group. They still had time but it seemed everyone was trying to be prepared a head of time so they could actually have a break before going to fight; again. That seemed wise; she wondered what the lavie would be doing while they were off on their mission.
Aidan01/29/2020
Aidan was in Cargo bay two with Niklas in the mech training room. His new armor was in the roomA. He had yet to don it. Niklas offered. "You can connect to your armor via VX. It's an uncrackable frequency, so one else can control your armor. They might jam it if the equipment were strong enough though.
Niklas helped him a little as the operation was familiar but there were differences between his last set and this uprated version.
atsumari01/29/2020
Ayano left the rest to her technicians and left the mechbay. She was thoughtful for a moment just waiting in the hallway trying to decide what she should do with her free time.
(Witness; new ship... https://tnuproject.net/forums/topic/80-sfs-requiem /)
The New Universes Project
SFS Requiem
Here are the ships rough specs; most of the ship is uninhabitable outside of these seven desks. It is designed to be automated. Ship Name: Requiem Registry: EPC-7071 Concept by: Special Operations Design Unit, Lonhorn Special Research Constructed by: Federation Automated Flee...
Gainz01/29/2020
Gainz was within Skynet City on Earth, debriefing them on his task on the planet Karv'aktu. His scouter transmits combat data to one of the colliderframe terminals within the city. A hologram appears shortly thereafter. "It is really you? I thought it not possible you could live this long, let alone survive after you disappeared." Gainz turned around to see that it was a hologram of his creator, Nicol Bolas. "Nicol...?" Gainz said surprised.
atsumari01/29/2020
Kitsuki walks in "Hum... How was your trip?" She asked Gainz; she had been overseeing development of more of the batch of human war bots that Skynet would be sending out to other parts of the galaxy to conduct its battle against all things inefficient.
Aidan01/29/2020
Aidan finished putting on the suit. It powered up and ran through a few microseconds of self analysis. NIklas said. "Now the power levels are higher than your used to, so the reactions may need time to adjust. Aidan nodded. He moved his arms and legs in place for a moment. He took a tentative step and nearly launched himself into the mech wall.

"Woah. This is a bit sensitive." Aidan commented.
Gainz01/29/2020
Gainz turns and acknowledges Kitsuki "Oh hey! It went well, entire planet's on fire. I dont think the bugs are gonna bother us for a while...if ever. But now..." Gainz says as his attention is back on Nicol. "Nicol, it has to be a good 2500 years... since I've last saw you." Gainz said. "Indeed it has. My physical body is long gone, but my consciousness is with Skynet now. I will always be here, as long as Skynet exists. I always wondered what happened to you. If it wasnt for that dimensional teleporter that sent you away, who knows what everything would be like now." Nicol said. Gainz thought about that for a moment. "...I think everything worked out for the best, honestly. We were wrong Nicol." Gainz said. "I know. It is one of the few times I will admit it." Nicol said.
atsumari01/29/2020
"It would have turned out like my world; humanity would be all but non-existant." Kitsuki explained. "Everyone would be in fear of the machines."
Gainz01/29/2020
"I see...then it was not fated to be. Thats all. All we ever wanted was to make things better. To advance mankind through technology. We have done a good job doing that since those old days. Of course it got worse before it got better with Honda's corruption. But the Revengers fixed that too." Nicol said. "They did? Amazing... how they could do all they did with what they had. They were right, and against all odds...even me, they made it work. Gotta respect the hell out of that." Gainz said.
atsumari01/29/2020
"I wonder if the Senate would be a similar situation; they believe they are making the universe better and furthering their own cause... No one is really inherently evil; they just think they know better than others." Kitsuki added.
"What makes things bad in this regard is like my Skynet; they have control... so they can do whatever they want even if it is incorrect or with the wrong data."
Aidan01/29/2020
It took a few more steps, and Aidan took it gingerly while the limited positronic net in the mech learned how to read him. Nik ran him through some drills, simulating various moves. It wasn't long before he was decently familiar. "This is definitely a step up, but the reaction times seem slower than the old unit.

Nik offered, "It is. This is like a child. It needs to develop memory of your moves and adapt to them before it will move as fluidly as you think it should. Honestly I would keep it around and let it follow you during your day. Might be a bit creepy, but it will acquire that skillset more quickly."
Gainz01/29/2020
"I can guarantee you, the Senate bringing back the Phoenix is nothing good for the universe. That thing was one of the only beings that I can say for certain that pushed me to my limits, for real. He's a dangerous god level threat and hes no angeI can tell you that." Gainz said.
atsumari01/29/2020
"True... The Phoenix wouldn't help matters; about the only thing I would think they could possibly be considering is having something to fight; that though is meaningless; its a bandage." Kitsuki replied.
Gainz01/29/2020
"Its a distraction, a costly one with time and lives. The same thing we saw years ago when the Supreme Conglomerate weaved their web of corruption to keep the status quo for their own benefit. It's easy to stay put, its hard to move forward to the unknown. That was the hurdle we were trying to force mankind out of before, 2500 years ago." Nicol said. "Much progress has been made now, to revert back is crazy... but we thought that too before the Revengers stopped us..." Gainz said. Nicol looked at Gainz and patted him on the shoulder. "You are wondering if we are wrong again?" Nicol asked. "Yeah..." Gainz said.
atsumari01/29/2020
"That is why we should consult with some of the folks here... They defeated disease, aging and racism but obviously there is still things they need to work on... We should help the ones who see the light get rid of the rest." Kitsuki said.
Gainz01/29/2020
"Before all that...theres someone I need to see. Vanilla, shes probably worried. I should let her know I'm back and everything is alright." Gainz said. "Ah, the other one from the old times. I must admit it is strange seeing her as a human. I've always remembered that little white car she always was. Gates... he was an interesting one wasnt he? Putting the AI in cars was...unconventional to say the least. Took a while for us to catch on to what he was doing and find them. He was always a challenge to track down...we never could get him back. Always had some plan, but I would too if I were in his place. Indeed, he was one the best of us." Nicol said. Gainz nodded. "Well, go to her. Shes at the Biological Research Division, Wing 7, Room 121." Nicol said.

The night had passed and the group was now into the morning of the 19th. Word had come from Adams of all people that the cult had arrived on Earth II; they apparently learned of the Senate's manipulation of them using Lai. For this the cult believed that the Federation must pay dearly for its involvement in their affairs. Even if the Senate thought its methods had merit their ideas were faulty and their plan of getting the citizens to ignore their plight with something to fight was only a bandage on an open wound; Trinity was initially coming to covertly gain intel on the Senate and finally deal with them but now it seemed they had another goal; save the refugee population of Earth II from being murdered by the cult out of spite for the senates actions.

Ari after being given this information called a conference of senior leaders; even though there really weren't any here... So she called Aidan to her office. She had also called Dawn; she would have preferred Selani be here but alas she would take what she could get. Adams was sitting on the couch in her office in his usual white uniform and cape.
Tory Trace02/01/2020
[im here now]
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
Dawn receiving the summons, finishes up her software maintenance before quietly exiting the room that Seleni was given and makes her way to Ari's office. "Is something the matter?" Dawn asks quietly after entering and standing off to the side of the couch.
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan walked in having left Brutus in the hall. He'd been getting the armor up to speed learning his moves but it's size would cramp the office badly. Coffee in hand he walked in, sighing as he did so. "Great. Why are we being punished now?" He said more to the room but it was directed at Adams.
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory had taken a nap as he finished updating EVA with some security patches and had her run some diagnostics in the engineer bay. It was then he had an alert from EVA which he fluttered his eyes open. "A meeting has been arranged. Report to the waypoint," EVA said in her somewhat monotone voice. He needed to get a personality software worked out in her. He stretched himself and made sure he was presentable before heading to Ari's office
atsumari02/01/2020
"You are not being punished General; in fact if I were to wan tto punish you I actually would have withheld all this information... You guys are walking into a bloodbath; a change in strategy would be in order." Adams said to Aidan as he ignored the others.
"Parts of that cult escaped from what he said... They want the Senate to pay with blood and not just their own." Ari explained chopping down her conversation with him into a sentence.
Aidan02/01/2020
"I surmised that going in. Taking the senate with me would at least make me happy. But it seems you always have the answers, what is the better idea?" He asked.
atsumari02/01/2020
Adams laughs. "Dear boy; if Mith and I had all the answers would we need you... and would we have subjects like Nore Tessa and Mr. Gainz?"
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory knocked on the door, waiting for Ari to call him in to join the meeting. "Did I miss anything?" he said
atsumari02/01/2020
Ari calls for him to enter; she did not summon him but their engineer was here and more heads on this was a good thing especially when "gods" were saying they even didn't know what to do.
Aidan02/01/2020
"Oh please. Preach somewhere else pastor. You idea of helping us is throwing us the rope while we are in the snake pit, then giving is the ingredients list for the anti-venom. If you REALLY gave a shit, you would be here a little more often then AFTER it hits the fan several times." Aidan sat near Ari. "We captured the agents of the cult and managed, as far as I know, to have turned them. Where were you then?"
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(get rekt much? XD)
atsumari02/01/2020
"There is much more that happens then your humanity is privy to... Or did you n ot forget the place her and her master come from?" Adams said bluntly pointing at Dawn.
Aidan02/01/2020
(He's been a thorn for a long time. He helps like Q does. Let me introduce you to the Borg. Whoops)
atsumari02/01/2020
"This universe and even this galaxy is bigger than just you ants; just because Mith takes a liking to three of you and Jim plays the fiddle does not mean you are more important... The Phoenix was a universal threat."
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(as the borg literally wipe half the galaxy clean and devoid of all life XD)
atsumari02/01/2020
"And my uncle jackass?" Ari retorted)
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan nursed his coffee, shutting up in case Adams actually had something useful to say.
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
Dawn just stands there unsure of what to do in the midst of the argument.
aqace10002/01/2020
(can i cause shenanigans?)
Aidan02/01/2020
(You have another setting?)
atsumari02/01/2020
"Why do you think you are not a corpse..." Adams said to Ari. "Now then... your orders are to go deal with this cult however you see fit... Since you seem to like Ms. Tessa so much I will be assigning her to you again. Stop this cult from causing a mess of the galaxy; outside of that I could care less what you do to the Federation Senate; become dictators for all Mith and I care." Adams disappears.
aqace10002/01/2020
(ummmm no)
atsumari02/01/2020
(you pissed him off)
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott sitting in the bunker hears that shit is going down in ari's office and decides to head over and say "hi"
Aidan02/01/2020
(good, he pops in, waves gallantly and expects hugs and kisses. if his kind cared, they would have helped us far more than they have)
aqace10002/01/2020
(ill hop in voice im BORED)
atsumari02/01/2020
(thats the thing; Mith and Adams have other things to deal with)
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory took his seat and waited for a chance to jump in. There was more bickering and than talking about whats on the agenda
Aidan02/01/2020
(AND he gave us squat. Oh it;s a trap. No shit sherlock. Then go kill them. Ummm, we already had that Idea)
(fairly useless)
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott pings ari's computer saying "can i poof in?"
atsumari02/01/2020
Nore appears in the room. "Hum..." She said adopting a thinking posture.
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan offered, "Sorry people. That guy grates on my last nerve. He helps when he and his kind can take the credit."
aqace10002/01/2020
( @atsumari im waiting on a response from ari)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
Dawn mutters,"So this is a god?" She shakes her head slightly in disappointment.
atsumari02/01/2020
Ari opens up a portal under Scotts current location and he falls into the room. "Just come in the room if you want to participate; you used to do it that way anyway..."
"Since when did you start asking anyway..." She said with a chuckle
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott responds maybe one gun related scare is enough to say "MAYBE you should stop and be courteous"
Aidan02/01/2020
"Should have done that years ago." Aidan said
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott turns to aidan and responds "just for that ill keep a shield on and randomly teleport to you"
atsumari02/01/2020
"And yes; Mith is what you would call a god... as close to one as we have though; Adams is his older, more centered aide... They care more about universe affecting events but still try to act like they care about us..." Ari explained to Dawn.

"Um... There is more than goes on than you know... They did leave Gainz and I in this galaxy to help." Nore wasn't quite defending her masters but there was some truth to their being busy. Still... She was their forced slave more or less due to her circumstances.
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory shook his head. "Perhaps we're off topic here. I assume we have a bit more to go with on the cult besides just the mission?" he said
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan turned to Ari on that comment.
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott turns to ari and asks "should i have ceci override the cityship ceci satelite control and maybe activate all the queens at one time?"
atsumari02/01/2020
"We need to just deal with them completely; If I am honest. If we knew everywhere they were... I'd say finish them off." Ari said. "That I can help with..." Nore said as she tapped on the air. An invisible holographic screen appeared showing the sector in a three dimensional view. "The other fun thing is; they won't be expecting you guys if you arrive sooner; I can make that happen." She addded.
aqace10002/01/2020
( @atsumari ari again)
atsumari02/01/2020
(Shes talking with Nore now; which you should be part of the discussion too scott; just going pop one day then starting to ask permission; be part of the story dont just magicafy say LULZ then pop)
aqace10002/01/2020
(im still there)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"Is It possible to arrive from an angle where they least expect it?" Dawn asks.
aqace10002/01/2020
(and trying to be helpful )
atsumari02/01/2020
Nore taps the screen with no home and a bunch of locations show up as blips on the screen. "Here are the locations of planets with verified sightings of cult members."
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott asks Nore "do any of those planets have ceci defence setups?"
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory took a look at the holomap. "That's a lot of space to cover. Soon as we hit one, the others are bound to know unless we can jam the comms and set up transponders to let the other cult sites see the place we hit is still active," he said
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
Dawn quietly studies the map, memorizing the location of each blip.
Aidan02/01/2020
"Exactly Tory. Where is the head of the snake or the biggest group of higherups?"Aidan asked
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"Normally in the highest concentration of hostiles." Dawn replies.
"Heavier presence might also indicate a base at least." She adds.
atsumari02/01/2020
"Well..." Nore pulls another map up on her left then puts the two together; showing locations of Trinty bases and installations near them. It seems that quite a few are closer to Orteria and the RMA could handle those; then most of the other pockets could be dealt with by the other city ships. It would only leave those in and around Earth II and within the current sector. "It may be work but; it is worth it in the end... It would also put the civilians on Trinity's side regardless of the Senates actions after that point... I heard that there are multiple movements to remove the current government from power; even Hukari herself; though she is a good leader all of her underlings save for the Arisa's really are not the best at their job... I wish Alion were still President... Hukari was better as middle management..." Nore continues to lament about the old man whom was still the Federation Vice President but more or less had little power.
aqace10002/01/2020
maybe a basic blockade of cecis as the first roadblock on the highlighted planets?
and have ITC lock down the gates?
atsumari02/01/2020
"Well... the gates being disabled wouldnt affect us or the Trinity bases... So..." Nore looks to Aidan.
(Stop the bastards from running away anymore)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"It'll be a start. Preventing the enemy from contacting other bases and strongholds. Issue is how strong will be the response when they realize what's going on." Dawn says.
aqace10002/01/2020
(dont forget cecis abilities)
Tory Trace02/01/2020
So the targets would be on Earth II and other planets close by in that cluster. "We can always fake a signal. Block their signals and broadcast our own with copies of their messages and such. That could buy us enough time to destroy their main HQ before their outlying bases get wise," he said
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(Drive an army into a corner hard enough and they'll fight tooth and nail to get the hell out. if that happens there might be unnecessary casualties)
atsumari02/01/2020
"We already did destroy their HQ; thats why they want to kill us... Well... wanted to... Now they are more focused on who betrayed them... Lai... and her employers; especially since she is under our protection." Ari said.
Aidan02/01/2020
(Laptop froze. One sec)
atsumari02/01/2020
"Alright... So a plan... Trinity, ODM and the Ceci units will handle all the straggling enemies and their bases... We will head for Earth II... ITC will stop the gates and communication networks... What about the bases around Earth II?" Ari asked.
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"I don't have the processing power or the pattern recognition arrays that the Murasashi has." Dawn says. "Nor do I want to involve her considering her current.......condition"
aqace10002/01/2020
Any bases without potential civilian losses?
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan said, "What about using one of the Defiant to cloak in and let the Lavie draw their attention right before we strike? That would sure get their attention."
"Take the whole strike team and get in deep." he added
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(how many isolated groups of dots are there?)
aqace10002/01/2020
Scott messages ceci and tells her to listen to ari and aidan during this operation
atsumari02/01/2020
(Like 30; some of them are super small outposts but this cult has expanded pretty far; fucked up religions about reviving "gods"... yeah...)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(so out of the 30 how many of them can we consider to be of significant size?)
Aidan02/01/2020
"That actually might be a good job for Scott's robots." They could be setup and take out quite a few of the smaller outposts." Aidan offered
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(like big enough to be considered a big enough base to be a threat?)
aqace10002/01/2020
(If civilian presence is nonexistent have ceci orbital bombard the outpost)
Gainz02/01/2020
(i have arrived)
Aidan02/01/2020
"At the very least it would let the cult know, you need to go. if we find you, you die." Aidan added.
Gainz02/01/2020
(just got home and finished washing the car)
atsumari02/01/2020
(Yes about the threat thing... each like group of five has a region command base)
Aidan02/01/2020
(then I am out of ideas)
atsumari02/01/2020
(Well the ceci queens and each of their city ship can take out those bases)
aqace10002/01/2020
(Peace out gotta get off)
atsumari02/01/2020
(remember we have fifty bases acorss the galaxy)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(so at least 6 bases that pose an actual threat fun)
atsumari02/01/2020
(Yeah; I mean the fleet can handle all the stuff not close to whre we are)
(our goal is jsut dealing with everything around Earth II)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(we get a base all to ourselves?! OH WHAT JOY jk jk)
atsumari02/01/2020
(which the Lavie could do while we go to teh surface; the only thing would be after the cult is gone... the senate still needs to be dealt with)
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(as all this is happening Seleni is more than likely enjoying a hot breakfast with remi LOL)
atsumari02/01/2020
(in fact)

"So now back to our original problem; the senate; when we get to the planet and deal with the cult... What then... its not like they will just lay down, hand over the government and leave..." Ari said.
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan recycled his now empty coffee. "or we kill the cult, removing the threat the Senate is using."
atsumari02/01/2020
(You can tell our story is going to be a VN... just comparing the number of female characters to male leaders ROFL; as Matt would probably point out; lots of hentai)
Tory Trace02/01/2020
""THats right. Why worry about the handover of power if all the cult members are arrested or dead," Tory said
atsumari02/01/2020
"So now we are letting the senate live to be elected out of power..." Ari shrugs.
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"Because the cult and Senate are two different entities, and they're not working together." Dawn explains to Tory.
Aidan02/01/2020
"I wouldn't go that far."Aidan said. "I have bullets with names on them."
'Corruption at this level. Someone has to have the guts to shoot the dicator so to speak in the head. I volunteer for THAT mission." Aidan said.
atsumari02/01/2020
"I volunteer to go after everyone you dont shoot or miss..." Ari said laughing.
"it has been awhile since I had a good fist fight..."
Tory Trace02/01/2020
"WE'll need to deal with their supporters too. They'll be mixed in with the population. We'll also need to download their database to find the names to make a complete purge of the cult," Tory said.
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
(im falling asleep x.x)
atsumari02/01/2020
"I guess one problem at a time..." Ari said and Nore nodded. The blue haired girl then left them to discuss further; it had been awhile since she had been back on the Lavie. Ari looked from Aidan to Dawn to Tory. "I guess we all have an idea of what to do at this point. Anything else urgent to discuss?"
Inori Yuzuriha02/01/2020
"None here. If you would excuse me, I'd best prepare for this upcoming mission." Dawn says with a small bow before leaving the room.
Tory Trace02/01/2020
"Any special equipment you need me to fabricate? signals to prepare before we arrive?" Tory said. He would want to help the strike team be ready when the time comes
atsumari02/01/2020
Ari nods dismissing Dawn. "Good luck." Ari looked Tory over. "Er... You don't do combat much do you; your one of Sumire's friends who does lots of computer stuff right?"
Tory Trace02/01/2020
"Thats right. I can have engineering fabricate what you need beforehand and prepare information warfare codes for you to be used in the field," he said
atsumari02/01/2020
"Anything you might be able to help with in the battle or would you prefer to stay on ship?" She asked him. Surely even if not for her magical powers and martial arts skills if they could use her he could be of some use.
Aidan02/01/2020
Aidan said, "How about enough remote units for every member of the strike team. That way we can have them enter then senate and blow up if it gets bad."
atsumari02/01/2020
"Remote massed death... I like it...!"
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory thought for awhile. "I haven't had much experience in the field. Still I think I can still help support your group in the field," he said. Tory turned to Aidan. "That's a joke right? If not then I can prepare some units for you if you have the blueprints in the ship's database. I'm not sure how much I can make with the time we have," he said to Aidan
Aidan02/01/2020
"Half joke. It would be nice but it's too late to change gears.We've trained for this. Just going do the best we can." Aidan offered. "Thanks for the offer though."
atsumari02/01/2020
"If this sort of change of things keeps up though I'll look old before you know it..." She shrugs then dismisses Tory if he wants to leave.
Tory Trace02/01/2020
Tory nodded and stood up. He turned to leave the office. He felt he should still prepare beforehand and went to engineering.

Kim · February 17, 2020

<START SIM>
After Ari cleaning herself and taking a rest she was laying on their couch staring at another book; this one on the history of the United Universal Alliance of Republics... The union that the United Forces were a part of; pretty much the corrupt larger version of TUC. It was the government before the government that led to the revival of the Federation and the one Hukari, Aconnie and the others saved from annihilation during all the previous wars; like with the EU the UUAR used cryogenically frozen soldiers and kept de-aging them. It was torture for Guildoer and his crew; being their puppets thought it was similar to how the EU did things
(These are some names you wont know; Guildoer was the captain of the first ship the story followed; back then it was just a small civilian ship doing vigilante work; his crew eventually becamse what is now Delta Force)
(Aconnie was a child soldier and genetically engineered commander of one of the fleet's space stations; she was the leader of Delta Force before Hukari; Aconnie defected to another race of bugs like the Swarm but these ones were bent on defeating the EU and were from another dimension... Eventually she herself sealed them away in their dimension realizing they were lying)
(random history stuff that no one will ever ask about but all of that led up to now)
(Aidan would have likely been in service under the Terran Dominion one of the members of the UUAR; basically think mirror universe; thats another reason this place is so fucked)
TugarToday at 7:48 PM
Aidan had come in. It was obvious that he had been working out. He has a smal towel around his neck. He threw it into the recycler and grabbed fresh clothes as he headed for the shower. "Light reading?" he asked.

atsumariToday at 7:48 PM
(the Dominion controlled Earth for awhile until Hukari forced their military god structure out of power)
"Light; yeah... totally reading stories about massive murder, corruption, illegal cloning... Totally light reading..." Ari shrugged scoffing at her own response.

TugarToday at 7:51 PM
He wandered over, kissing her hard a couple times quickly. "Ah. The history of man. Which sounds sexist."
"I really didn't mean to explode at Adams. I know he's just the messenger, but sometimes the whole situation rubs me the wrong way." Aidan said, stretching his neck at the thought.

atsumariToday at 7:56 PM
"The EU seems less like gods and more like kindergarteners trying to run the universe." Ari said.

TugarToday at 7:57 PM
"That too, but we have enough people against us." Aidan offered, leaving the obvious unsaid.

atsumariToday at 8:00 PM
"All good things; but hey between the Watchers and the EU there is some asshat recording us doing anything or even fapping to all these sex in this place; it is totally all kinds of fucked up but whatever I guess the voyeurs' get what they want..." Ari said as there was a chime at their door.
kiri wants to join us if thats okay)

TugarToday at 8:03 PM
Aidan was already up so he headed that direction. Before he opened the door he teased, "I'm trying to put on a good show for them, I just hope they appreciate the effort." He smiled at her before keying the door.
"Totally worth the show if I were a random camera wielding peeping tom" Ari replied to him as the door opened. Nore was on the other side. "Good afternoon." She said.
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
(trying to find out how to weasel into these DMs)
Aidan02/02/2020
Aidan greeted Nore. "Hi. Ignore my state of undress. I need to grab a shower."
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
Dawn behind Nore appears wheeling a cart with a covered platter and a teapot and teacups.
atsumari02/02/2020
Nore entered. As Dawn entered brining in tea she gets some. Ari sets down her book. "I mean we didn't request tea but like; sure whatever... you are a maid anyway..." She said as she gets up coming to the cart. Nore speaks "I wanted to apologize for my master's once again"
Aidan02/02/2020
"Well that's not happening now." Aidan commented to the room but no one in particular. He sent a command to his VX and poofed into normal street clothing complete with service pistol.
Oscar02/02/2020
I wake up in a room that has a firepit in it, not even knowing where I am at that point.
"What the heck happened... More importantly, where am I..?"
I wonder to myself as I sleepily turn my head from side to side to get a good look at the room.
atsumari02/02/2020
"You know you wanted to shower with all the girls watching..." Ari teased Aidan continuing ot follow up on the voyeur comments.
Oscar would hear the voices of the others in the adjoining room.
Aidan02/02/2020
"Challenge accepted." Aidan said, sticking out his tongue.
atsumari02/02/2020
"Lavie give the man a shower." Ari said to the ship. Lumi summons forth a shower head in the middle of the room ceiling.
Aidan02/02/2020
Aidan starts to strip in place.
Oscar02/02/2020
I get up and stretch for a while, then noticing the chatter from the room next to the one I'm in.
"Hmm? I should probably go over there, seems like that's where all the people are at."
I walk over and slowly enter the room where I heard voices coming from.
"Hello..?"
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
Dawn just sighs as she sips her cup of tea.
Aidan02/02/2020
Aidan stops and peers underneath the platter cover. "What's under here?!"
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
(just a platter of slices of various meats and cheeses)
atsumari02/02/2020
"Snacks!" Ari said as she observes the food. She then returns her attention to Nore "So what brings you to us other than apologizing... Or did you ask her to come here?" Ari asked Aidan.
Aidan02/02/2020
"I didn't summon her." Aidan offered to Ari. Turning to Nore he asked, "What can we do for you Nore?"
Oscar02/02/2020
I silently lean against the wall and spectate the others from the side.
"Hmm.. Snacks..eh?"
Gainz02/02/2020
For a brief moment a flash of light occurs within the room and then Gainz teleports into the room in a pose that looks suspiciously like a 21st century dab. "Sup yall." Gainz says as he casually crosses his arms.
atsumari02/02/2020
"Interceptors both ground and space; would they be helpful?" Nore asks.
Ari shrugs waving at Gainz. "hey... food?"
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
Dawn just looks at Gainz and raises an eyebrow.
Aidan02/02/2020
"How about a half dozen mechs about 3 feet tall that I can use during the mission as cover, and if need be blow up as a satchel charge?" Aidan asked Nore. He added " and they should look like tiny Marines in power armor."
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
(you mean the literal mound of meat and muscle that is Gainz?)
(presence)
(there you go)
Oscar02/02/2020
I accidently raise my voice, enough for the others to notice my presence in the corner as I look at Gainz from afar.
"Woah! What the heck, this dude just appeared in the middle of the room with a flash..?!"
atsumari02/02/2020
Nore nods. "I can give you that and more; Scott has a bunch of other stuff I gave him.... This guy is new isnt he?" Nore asked referring to Oscar
Gainz02/02/2020
"Ah, no thanks. Not hungry...actually havent been for quite some time." Gainz says.
Aidan02/02/2020
Aidan offered to Oscar, "Sadly, that is normal around here. You crashing in the other room is actually the most normal thing that happened today."
Gainz02/02/2020
Gainz glances over at the new guy. "Teleportation, works...most of the time. Work in progress." Gainz says.
atsumari02/02/2020
"So you don't eat... poor you..." Ari said lamenting Gainz lack of being able to have food; it was something they never discussed.
Aidan02/02/2020
Casually walking closer to Nore, he quietly whispers to her, "You and I need to talk. I feel like a fly in room of flyswatters around the superpowered."
atsumari02/02/2020
"YOu feel like a fly in a room of flyswatters I feel like an ant in a room full of ant poison..." Ari commented back to Aidan.
Oscar02/02/2020
"Fair enough. I mean I can't do it right now but I am apparently supposed to be able to blink a decent distance and jump a few kilometers away.."
I shrug as I move closer to the others, taking a glance at the snacks that are on the cart.
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
Dawn waves over to the platter, "There are snacks but I can cook something if you so desire." She says to both Oscar and Gainz.
atsumari02/02/2020
"Anything interesting happen while you were gone?" Ari asked Gainz
Aidan02/02/2020
"Actually Nore, there is something I'd like." Aidan has Nik send Nore the specs for his new armor, along with Ari's most recent scan. "We need a copy of that for Ari made."
Gainz02/02/2020
"Between the last time we met, well...I fucked up the swarm, made their boss my bitch, and torched their planet. Other than that, not much. Came back home to Skynet aftewards and well...here I am." Gainz said with a smug grin.
Aidan02/02/2020
Aidan turned as the comment. "Which planet?" He asked Gainz
atsumari02/02/2020
Nore nods "Easy enough for me to do... I can just copy what already exists... and modify it."
Gainz02/02/2020
"Some place called Karv'atku." Gainz shruged. "Never heard of it. It hella far from here too."
atsumari02/02/2020
"Oh; intel reports from Earth II; more updated then you already have..." Nore said sending that information to Ari over VX.
Aidan02/02/2020
"Thank you Nore. I apprecaite that." He walked over and kissed Ari on the cheek. I am going to grab that shower and head to the armory for a bit." Aidan said and walked out.
Oscar02/02/2020
I shift my gaze over to Dawn and say:
"Oh, umm.. I would like some pea soup, if that's okay..."
I reply a bit shyly since I'm not sure what kind of foods can be prepared here.
atsumari02/02/2020
Ari waves as Aidan leaves.
Inori Yuzuriha02/02/2020
"Very well." Dawn says with a small bow and leaves the room.

(bugs all over earth... yeah)
Aidan02/08/2020
Arriving at the Conference room, Aidan walked in, moving to center of the table and pouring himself a large coffee. He waited for the group to settle in Brutus against one of the wall, his massive arms crossed.
Inori Yuzuriha02/08/2020
(oh crap a post)
Aidan02/08/2020

Inori Yuzuriha02/08/2020
(i mean she kept Sashi fed for the longest time ever)
(im guessing recon is going to be going out soon?)
Aidan02/08/2020
"Since the Senate has greivances. Why don't you start Captain Thomas?" Aidan said.
atsumari02/08/2020
"Commander." The Captain said. She then spoke. "My superiors are concerned about your perceived tactical intervention into the affairs of Earth II... One of our contacts within the Endormondian Union advised us of your impending assault. We are merely here to prevent Trinity from involving itself in matters that it shouldn't be involved in." She said.
"What are these matters we shouldn't be involved in?" Erin asked coldly. "You seek to remove our superiors from power using military force." Madori said.
"The Civilian government is placed into power by election NOT usurped by military strength." She continued.
"And-" Erin was interrupted by Edwin before she could finish. "Let the General speak for y our forces; you young lady are only here because of the perceived power you hold within your parent group... Do not test me or my staff; let the professionals talk." "Excuse me?"
Aidan02/08/2020
"Is it the Government's intention to bring back the Phoenix and possibly raise Darius from the dead. Because that's what they tried to accomplish on the planet we just left." Aidan said plainly. "Or didn't you fight that war either?"
atsumari02/08/2020
"How about you get off my ship; like really... You have no idea what is really going on... your superiors pull a fucking blanket over your face... You think bowing to them will save your crew; any worthwhile captain wouldn't just... Do you even remember your oath as a Federation soldier..." "You haven't been here so you no place telling US how to live our lives." Edwin said back to Erin. "They would never let it actually happen; just give the people something to hate... And ask you have said... I do remember my oath; I am responsible for EVERY member of my crew... Do you even understand what that obligation means little girl?!" Edwin retorted.
Aidan02/08/2020
Aidan had Brutus walk over and pick Edwin up bodily.
Moving to his command voice. "Everyone settle down NOW!"
Brutus set Edwin back on his feet but hadn't let him go. "Please disrepect my staff one more time and you will be flying back to your ship through the airlock. You want to talk, do that. Treat MY staff with the same respect you would me or this parlay is over and the ones paying the price will me OUR comrades you fucking dumbasses!"
"Or hadn't that occurred to you brainiacs yet?!"
atsumari02/08/2020
Edwin returns to his seat. "How is pointing out the flaws in this disrespect; you have a person barely out of the academy in a command level position. She shouldn't even be in this room; much less in charge of your intelligence branch. You must know that is true. As for what is taking place; the Senate Special Services Committee would never allow the Phoenix to actually roam free or even be at full power; I was there fighting that war... and you want to know where we are now... Just look at the Federation government... Hukari Carain and her staff may be pop idols and have given the people something to shield themselves from the truth with but they cant govern. This is what happens when you put children into positions of power. Alion De Neresa should have never been removed from power by the pervious corrupt Senate; the man should have been allowed to be reelected; now he just sits as the child's puppet. SO tell me; who really are the corrupt ones... is it Carain and her Q buddies in the EU; or us... At least my crew and I know our loyalties are t othe population and citizens of the Federation; tell me General... Who do you serve now; you've become a king... hum....?" Edwin said.
Aidan02/08/2020
Aidan gritted his teeth. "I haven't become anything. If it's one thing I never forgot it was my oath to serve. But serve whom. If you look beyond the ranks on the collar, you would see Admiral Mizriki came up through the ranks. Did I help her. Hell yes I did. But SHE did the work. She was their fighting by my side during the bug invasion and half a dozen other campaigns. I didn't give her command. She EARNED it."

He took a sip of his coffee before continuing. "You fought against Darius and you actually believe the Senate can control THAT? You think I'm the one that is delusional?" Aidan offered.
atsumari02/08/2020
"Then General; sir... why are you here... You must know that in the path you are heading you will be fighting and killing the very soldiers you say are your comrades. As a fellow commander I am asking you to find another way; you may think I am being leashed and am in league with the Senate... No; I am a Captain whom was sent on a mission. Every member of my crew's life is at stake... I am following orders; yes... What else would you have us do though... From what the Commission researchers tell us they can weaken the Phoenix... Besides that; how many elections do you think most of these men will actually be in power; if we keep our people and our citizens safe until they are gone then we can rest well knowing we have avoided getting them killed." "So be complacent and don't take risks because someone might die or you might lose your rank... How about standing up to the Senators; or even the President... if you say that there is corruption in the government isn't part of your obligation to uphold the law?" Erin asked.
"You sound like the President used to..." The Captain chuckled lightly and shook his head.
Aidan02/08/2020
"So stand by and let the Senate create a fictional enemy that they BELIEVE they can control. If they are wrong, and if you were there, you know that is a REAL certainty that is will get out of control. I have loved ones here AND on Earth II the same as you. I don't want to do this....but what choice do I have. Sit by and blindly follow orders that very well may kill everyone on that planet. Haven't the people on Earth II suffered enough without inventing an enemy to kill?"
"As to your other request. You could join us." Aidan said plainly.
atsumari02/08/2020
"Then again General; what shall we do... I can tell you most of the Planetary Guard Forces and Space forces are all asking the same question." Edwin said.
Aidan02/08/2020
"Enlighten me, then." Aidan said. "What is the compromise?"
atsumari02/08/2020
"I have not the answer; if I did I wouldn't be asking you... Obviously everyone joining you would make the Federation a dictatorship... or did you not forget Orteria is a monarchy? We can't backpaddle the galaxy centuries..." Edwin said. "Form a new government." Erin said simply.
Aidan02/08/2020
"The difference is, I don't WANT to be in charge." Aidan said, as he got up to think. He was silent for a few moments. "Let's at least agree to a ceasation of activities. We won't move against them. They agree not to try that stunt again."
atsumari02/08/2020
"I can do some convincing." Madori said. "I will see what I can do about hindering this revival attempt.... At least until you can give us something... I would be risking my crews life on it but; something does need to change. I only hope that there is a new age... some day soon." Thomas said.
Aidan02/08/2020
"Something like....." Aidan asked.
atsumari02/08/2020
"Some place that doesnt need people like us." Edwin said. Erin chuckled. "Not gunna happen; universal, world or whatever peace... it won't happen... People are too fickle... There will always be someone who is selfish or wanting control; no way to stop it; blood will always be spilled; you just have to make the least blood flow as possible...." She then shrugged.
Aidan02/08/2020
Aidan smiled for the first time in the meeting. "Been my goal for nearly 20 years. I would love to retire that part of my life."
atsumari02/08/2020
"I'm tell you guys; listen to the only journalist in the room; she may be from the 21st century... Like seriously... You can't stop fighting; only decrease it someone will always want to fight something... Peace won't fully happen and the only way to retain peace is to pick up arms... its a cycle..." Erin said bluntly.
Aidan02/08/2020
"From the mouth of babes, and not the young kind." Aidan said. "Take this back to the Senate. There are factions of Darius that have taken over since Darius was taken out. Probably a dozen. Plenty of enemies to choose from." Aidan said.

"I'll even throw in a carrot. Earth, the real Earth, is recovering. Have them send an expedition back. Look like heroes."
atsumari02/08/2020
The Captain nods. "Very well... I will send that request up the chain. Peace can be obtained but for that to occur we have to become enlightened.... Only few cultures in humanity ever reached that point and then were snuffed... I wonder if we will ever get there." The captain said as he stood preparing to leave.
(Next time the ground team will do intel gathering; fighitng = game over btw)

<START SIM>
Mimi and her group exit Scott's gate on the cityship over earth II. They arrive in a room on Earth II controlled by ITC. There were armed ITC soldiers there guarding the door to ensure no one entered who was not supposed to. Once of the ITC scientists came up to her. "Good afternoon Miss Sorinson... We were informed to expect you by the Ceci's... The Senate's Security Forces and the Planetary Guard have been on high alert lately; I would suggest losing your tactical gear unless you and your team want an open conflict in the streets.. I'm Dr. Vanders one of ITC's Security Operations Specialists by the way... I deal in defensive hacking more or less... When you and your staff are ready my men will let you through. There are replicators over there if you need clothes and other such things to blend in." Vanders went over to the door once he was done talking letting Team one do as it pleased. Mimi just made her armor disappear. She was in her typical shorts and shirt under it. The tiny redhead looked to her team at this point making sure everyone made it and overheard Vanders' advice

(Mimi just kind of threw together whoever she could find that was trustworthy as Ari needed a team send immediately)
AidanYesterday at 4:14 PM
Before leaving she retrieved an ankle wrap holding a few critical medical items, knife and handheld that slipping into her jeans pocket
KimYesterday at 4:16 PM
Sanya straightened her clothes, feeling slightly anxious. She had never worn 'jeans' before. The denim seemed sturdy, though restricting. Only her favorite (and only) black half jacket had been deemed casual attire. She tugged at the bottom of her crop top, as if it would make it longer. She noted Kirin's sword with some wonder. "Is it normal for people to carry swords? I saw it on those.. brightly colored animated shows on the network? Is that how humans really do it?"
atsumariYesterday at 4:17 PM
Vanders chuckled.
kevingYesterday at 4:17 PM
before kirin heads out to meet with everyone he heads to med bay to do a rotine checkup on his condition before mission then will do another after returning making sure his status of vitals have changed
atsumariYesterday at 4:19 PM
As Kirin arrived with the group and through the portals and all; still having his sword and Sanya making that comment Mimi shook her head. "Totally get how you could pull of cultural heritage shit in any normal place; a highly guarded government installation... nope... cloak the sword or something or leave it here."
kevingYesterday at 4:21 PM
kirin nods and slides the sword in it sheath on to his back under one of the layer of clothing
AidanYesterday at 4:24 PM
(How long is that sword you are trying to conceal?) @keving
KimYesterday at 4:25 PM
Sanya smoother her hair back behind her ears. "Interesting. Would one of those long collared uniforms with the short skirts been more appropriate then?" She touched the Hem of her shirt again, second guessing her outfit choice. "I don't think I will ever understand the culture..."
atsumariYesterday at 4:27 PM
Once the team is ready Vanders says as he types into a panel. "I have put the security systems into a undetectable loop within this building. Once you leave this room you are on your own... After you get out of this building ITC can't assist you. Also yes; a uniform as you put it would totally get people over you... its a fetish thing.... Welcome to the depravity of humanity..." Vanders then opens the door and his men guard the outside of the door.
Inori YuzurihaYesterday at 4:28 PM
(oh shiiiiiit i missed a post while i was cooking DX)
kevingYesterday at 4:28 PM
(its standard size sword like about 2 inches of the hilt would be sticking out the neck of the uniform)
AidanYesterday at 4:28 PM
(A standard sword is close to a meter long, It's going to be too obvious)
atsumariYesterday at 4:30 PM
As Kirin walks by thinking he has hidden his sword Vanders grabs the whole sheath and all pulling it form his back and whacking him in the head with it "Are you an idiot...."
kevingYesterday at 4:32 PM
"nope this is my standard atire dont go anywhere with out it" kirin replys snatching it back
atsumariYesterday at 4:33 PM
"This thing is about as obvious as my soldiers rifles and they are uniformed security personnel; do you want to have a giant sign saying "hey look at me I am special forces; come find me!"" vanders said sarcastically.
Inori YuzurihaYesterday at 4:33 PM
(all the meanwhile Seleni has a romantic candlelit dinner with Remi XD)
OscarYesterday at 4:33 PM
"So... This is basically one of my first stealth missions ever.. I'm not really sure how I should go about it."
I think out loud as I'm still standing around with the others, then seeing Kirin get whacked on his head with his own sword.
"Kirin what were you thinking.. Heh."
I chuckle a bit as I shake my head while facing Kirin.

atsumariYesterday at 4:35 PM
(the funniest thing of all about this is a techie who is like a white hat hacker is schooling Kirin; a professional soldier on stealth)
(Vanders is a tech nerd in a lab coat)
(Totally Scotts kinda people)
kevingYesterday at 4:36 PM
"a normal spec ops wouldnt have a sword on them" kirin says as he pulls out the foldable pistol "this is standard for spec ops" and it points at the ground with a purple glow to it
OscarYesterday at 4:36 PM
(True, he should be schooling me. I'm pretty bad at actual stealth missions. Decent in undercover ones.)
KimYesterday at 4:38 PM
She continued watching the exchange in wonderment. Sanya considered Vanders's statement about a fetish and her face flushed a light pink as the alternate translation sank in. "Oh! I thought you meant it was something linked to magic."
atsumariYesterday at 4:38 PM
"Gem... yeah... Where did you people find this guy; some anime con...." Vanders sighs. "Hide the gems; put the gun away... for fucks sake; act like a random civilian..." Mimi said to Kirin leading the way out the door.
AidanYesterday at 4:39 PM
Ayasha commented, "Only reason you would have a sword would be cosplay or something nefarious. We need to be low-key."
OscarYesterday at 4:40 PM
("Bravo Six, going dark." :gg:)
(More like Aidan going dark)
atsumariYesterday at 4:41 PM
(If Tug were playing Aidan Kirin would already be on the ground)
OscarYesterday at 4:42 PM
(Yup. For me tho I just "act casual".)
(Being undercover is all 'bout blending in w the masses/staff)
atsumariYesterday at 4:43 PM
Mimi heads down the hallway; one side was full of tech labs and the other a rather large window looking out into a park outside of this ITC office building. It was near some other government buildings about a block from the Capital. There was an exit door nearby with auto-doors that would let random entrants in and out.
AidanYesterday at 4:43 PM
(true, Aidan would have taken it from him)
atsumariYesterday at 4:44 PM
This place was reminiscent of earth; birds chirping and people mingling.
It seemed peaceful in spite of the many wars in the galaxy.
KimYesterday at 4:46 PM
Sanya followed after Mimi, her gaze rapidly shifting over the labs, and windows. The birdsong made her smile as she stepped out into daylight. Her silver eyes were wide as she marvelled at the bright blue of the sky. "It's so ... sugoi," she whispered.
AidanYesterday at 4:46 PM
Ayasha took in the scenery, fresh air, and sunshine. Not her Earth but it seemed like a nice place. "Agreed Sanya. Amazing."
atsumariYesterday at 4:47 PM
"Been awhile since I've been here... Heh... Well..." Mimi crossed her arms waiting for the others as she took in the planet terraformed to look like a clone of Earth. It did have its differences though.
Tory TraceYesterday at 4:47 PM
Tory stepped through with them and had his pack ready. He gave a jump and felt the gravity was quite similar. "Even gravity is pretty closely replicated," he said
atsumariYesterday at 4:50 PM
"I guess we can... blend in..." Mimi said smirking as she went over to a food cart and got a churro; the gigantic sweet was tasty looking.
She then made her way down the street letting the group follow her walking slowly just observing things wishing they had more time.
KimYesterday at 4:52 PM
"I've never been to Earth, if it's like this, then it's a blessing. It feels strange without the bulkheads, though," Sanya shrugged as they continued along, searching the sky for a bird.
Tory TraceYesterday at 4:53 PM
Tory saw they were going to becoming around some fashion outlets. "Why don't we get some civi clothes here first, dress like normal folks around here," he said to the group
atsumariYesterday at 4:53 PM
(Most of them alredy are)
AidanYesterday at 4:54 PM
Ayasha mimicked Mimi and got a churro. She might have to pay for it later in the gym but it was a tasty indulgence.
kevingYesterday at 4:56 PM
kirin puts away his pistol in his shoulder holster and puts the sword on his back with a scarf around his neck now
OscarYesterday at 4:57 PM
I walk out behind the others, then as I look at the scenery I think out loud yet again.
"This all seems very familiar.. Yet slightly different.."
Having a puzzled look on my face, I wander around.
atsumariYesterday at 4:57 PM
The group continued to move closer down the street and into a larger courtyard area in front of the capital.
KimYesterday at 5:00 PM
Sanya heard the crunch of the churro and shifted her attention downward. "What's this?" She pointed to the sugary treat that Ayasha and Mimi were snacking on.
AidanYesterday at 5:03 PM
Ayasha tore the remainder in half handing it to Sanya. "Here." She did it as she kept an eye on Kirin with his sword. "Not a smart move." She said to herself.
kevingYesterday at 5:04 PM
(would kirin know which gems has the potential of making items and people invisable by now after doing studys and testing?)
KimYesterday at 5:05 PM
With a smile, Sanya accepted the sweet. "Thank you!" She sniffed at it and considered it's texture. She squished it between her fingers and wondered at the crisp yet spongy texture before taking a dainty bite. She marvelled at its sweetness. "It's like.. a crunchy donut?"
OscarYesterday at 5:05 PM
"I'm actually pretty nervous about this, I just have this weird feeling that I might mess up the whole mission.."
I fidget a bit as I walk behind the others, expressing my concern.
atsumariYesterday at 5:06 PM
The group arrives in the front of the Senate building. Mimi walked inside after finishing her food. As she got to security one of the capital police scanned her. In her cause because her working for Trinity was classified by the Alchemy Commission she just looked like a Commission representative; Vanders did not have to doctor her records at all. The capital police let her in without incident and with her weapons and gems. The Capital police look to whom is next in the group "Next please."
Tory TraceYesterday at 5:09 PM
Tory stepped up next and prepared to be scanned
atsumariYesterday at 5:10 PM
"State your name and purpose for your visit to the capital today sir." One of the officers at a terminal behind glass said to him.
As the scanner scans him it signals he has a weapon; the scan also indicates his doctored identity and that he was here for diplomatic reasons; part of a delegations security detail.
The officer waits but moves his hand closer to his sidearm following standard procedure to see his reaction.
Tory TraceYesterday at 5:14 PM
"Terrace Volk. Security for this diplomatic delegation," Tory answered as his cover
atsumariYesterday at 5:14 PM
"Can we inspect your weapon please."
Tory TraceYesterday at 5:16 PM
He took his FSP out and removed its munitions before passing it over for inspection.
atsumariYesterday at 5:17 PM
The second officer on the other side of the scanner takes the weapon scanning over it with a tricorder. Matching its registration and checking nothing odd was done to it he passes it back. "Thank you Mr. Volk sorry for the added security measures. You are free to enter."
"next please" the officer at the terminal said.
Tory TraceYesterday at 5:18 PM
He took his FSP back and placed it back in his holster. He'll rearm it once they pass completely through insepction
KimYesterday at 5:21 PM
Sanya finished her churro and dusted the remnant sugar from her hands. She moved into line for the security check point.
(They are just stating that they are security rather than another cover?)
atsumariYesterday at 5:22 PM
(Correct)
AidanYesterday at 5:24 PM
Ayasha moved forward. "Ayasha Thornton. Medical specialist for the diplomatic delegation. "
atsumariYesterday at 5:25 PM
Ayasha gave her real name but being part of Federation Medical it brought up no flags whatsoever. She was a nurse after all. The capital police let her through though they do ask to inspect her weapon.

AidanYesterday at 5:26 PM
Taking out the service pistol, she dropped the magazine, locking the slide back for inspection.
atsumariYesterday at 5:27 PM
The officer inspects her weapon and lets her through.
The officer at the terminal asks for whom is next.
( @Kim or @keving )
( @Oscar )
OscarYesterday at 5:30 PM
"I guess I'll go next."
I walk up to the security point, waiting to be scanned.
"Oscar Kashima, also security for this diplomatic delegation."
(That sound about right?)
atsumariYesterday at 5:31 PM
The Capital police scan him and find his weapon; the terminal officer has trouble finding his record. Checking the delegation list though they find his name; the officer assumes he is just a non-citizen. They do ask him to check his weapon in with them though as they cant verify his identity.
As they are taking a moment another officer comes back fromt break and signals for Sanya to come over to his scanner. "I can help whomever is next over here."
KimYesterday at 5:35 PM
Sanya stepped forward when it was her turned. "Sanya Isimle, Diplomatic Delegation Security." She wasn't carrying any weapons.
OscarYesterday at 5:35 PM
(I don't have a weapon yet though.)
atsumariYesterday at 5:36 PM
After they scan her and check her ID; they couldn't find her as well as she is a non-citizen. As she is unarmed though ad this is a public government office they let her through without incident. (Oh; I thought we gave you a sidearm). After they clear up the confusion they let Oscar though.
One of the officers calls up Kirin.
Random civilians also come through the other gate.
( @keving )
KimYesterday at 5:38 PM
Sanya continued to the other side and waited with Mimi and the others.
atsumariYesterday at 5:43 PM
As the guards continue to ask Kirin to move forward and he doesnt one of the officers approaches him; upon scanning him they realize he is armed. He calls the situation in. "We better get out of here." Mimi whispered.
AidanYesterday at 5:44 PM
Ayasha nods, they start putting distance between them and Kirin. She didn't like it, but the mission was more important than any one person.
atsumariYesterday at 5:44 PM
More officers come and eventually Kirin gets tazed and detained.
The group moves off as more officers head to the entrance.
AidanYesterday at 5:46 PM
Ayasha takes a quck video of the event for review later.
atsumariYesterday at 5:48 PM
The group gets to an elevator and heads to another level getting away from the situation.
<END SIM>

Atsumari · February 28, 2020

As the team arrives on the next floor to search Oscar is separated from the group by some odd darkness spell. As he wanders the spell goes away. As he looks down a hallway in the Capital building he sees a wilver haired girl with long hair in a long sleeveless dress. She glances at him from a distance down the hallway. "Oscar... come..." The girl says signaling for him to follow her as she hurried down the hallway.

Oscar-senpai 24-Feb-20 05:23 PM
"Okay then.."
I'm confused for a bit, but then decide to follow the girl as I had already been separated from the group, so I didn't really have other options I could go with. (edited)

atsumari 24-Feb-20 05:27 PM
As he follows her she leads him to the end of the hallway to a door that was a dead end. "In this room I've prepared a test for you... The question is; will you be useful enough to stop them?" The girl asks then fades away as if she were never there. The door is closed.
Avatar
Oscar-senpai 24-Feb-20 05:33 PM
"Well then, that sure was strange.. Now then...I guess there's supposed something waiting for me beyond this door..?"
I say as I slowly open the door, entering the room with no clue of what's going to happen to me. Being cautious, I release a bit more of my phase force as I close the door behind me.

atsumari 24-Feb-20 05:39 PM
Once Oscar opens the door he sees two men in cloaks fully covered in black not paying attention to the door. He closes the door quietly and the men seem too interested in their bickering to realize he is there.
"We have informed them of our plans and given them the deadline... That is enough." The first man said as the second yells. "You fool; this Federation types only care about action; they did after all send one of their pets to spy on us; we may have turned her but the fact still remains they tried to infiltrate us... We warned them; now they must die!" "But we should give them more time... If they deliver the girl to us we can still complete our master's bidding..." "FOOLISH... They only understand action; kill them all, then kill those Orteria scum and take what is rightfully ours... We will revive the Phoenix!"

You pull the other guy towards you annd hit him with an energy wave that felt like a fist punch ot his face. You bloody his nose pretty badly as the force seemed to have broken his nose.

As your turn ends the more aggressive one moves over to you and attempts to stab you with a dagger.
He successfully stabs himself.
(1 damage)
The one you just attacked moves away from you and begins to cast healing on himself.

The man who is bleeding out his nose moves out of the way of the attack. As his turn arrives he pulls out a dagger and goes to attack.
The guyes friend comes behind you and goes to stab.

On the Lavie

<START SIM>
As the ship was making preparations for its next moves a security officer noticed an odd... What even was that; it looked like water in the middle of the air. Suddenly a white haired girl in a sailor uniform enters. She looks around thoughtfully. She then looks back to the... What could be a portal?
Tuncecine02/18/2020
A second individual walks through a taller male with tied back hair with what appeared to be a small robot following behind him "So where did we land mac attack?"
atsumari02/18/2020
"I think we are in a submarine... Looks entirely too metal." the girl said to her comrade. The guard approaches them. "You there..." he said.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"You sir where does one file immigration reports just point I don't have all day."
Aidan02/18/2020
Niklas uses his VX and trigger the intruder alert. "My name is Niklas. How can I help you?"
atsumari02/18/2020
The girl looks thoughtful. "alarms are usually a bad sign."
She looks from the guard to Nik whom also just walked up. She nods. "I am going for identification; okay?" She said nonchalantly; to the point of entirely emotionless.
Aidan02/18/2020
(no one with a brain is going to take chances with all the crap that has happened.)

"Meh I guess." he follows after her "Do you think they will be mad Macaroni, I hope its not a lot of paper work."
aqace10002/18/2020
scott arrives in his bunker
atsumari02/18/2020
She pulls out a badge ignoring her comrades commentary as it wasn't necessary. "Makigisa Tahoshi and Ryuji Yamamoto from the Laviesta Super Natural Investigation and Elimination Force." She said as if Nik should know what that means.
Aidan02/18/2020
NIk uses the ship's computer to look for any references on that. "Tell me more.That is unfamiliar."
atsumari02/18/2020
"We are the Atsikai Policing Force for the Hen-Shu State of Laviesta... How do you not know of this?" She looked to her partner as if seeking him to give her an explanation.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I mean we don't know where the portal sent us they might not be from our area, Like we don't know this gentleman's name after you gave up ours."
Aidan02/18/2020
"My name is Lieutenant Niklas Blom from the Trinity Special Forces."
atsumari02/18/2020
"Interesting." Maki said not seeming interested at all. Her voice remaining flat.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"And now the circle is complete, so where do we go the brig, or somewhere you keep newcomers?"
atsumari02/18/2020
"When do we arrive at the next port?"
Aidan02/18/2020
"I am trying to help you but without a frame of reference your information is not relevant. I'd like to get that sorted out before large people with large weapons come to make sure the crew stays safe. Can you at least tell me why you are here?"
atsumari02/18/2020
"We are here on behalf of our government; an advance team to explore the portal."
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"There was a portal we walked through it the camera didn't have any issue so we thought we wouldn't either, in our land we are the police,well we are a special team on the police."(getting some extra flavor one sec)
Aidan02/18/2020
"Portal? From where?" Niklas asked.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I can't see it from here, it might be just one way. But she said everything else, I understand you kinda of have to go through the whole thing but could we not just find a place to sit down maybe talk to the commander around here?" he stresses the maybe to try to not force a situation
atsumari02/18/2020
Additional security arrive.
Maki takes off her backpack setting it down and pulling out a folding camp chair of sorts setting it up for Ryu.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"Ah perfect, I might not of done well if this continued" he sits down in it
Aidan02/18/2020
By then Aidan walked around the corner, walking between the Marine heavy guard. "My name is General Aidan Thornton. I understand you are some kind of Envoy from another place. What type of assistance can we provide." His voice was even, but with all the incursions lately, he didn't enjoy the idea that someone could just board the ship.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Well... As was explained we are just an advance team sent on an exploration mission to see what was here General sir. I venture a guess though we might be of some help to you; seeing as that portal looks one way..." Maki said noticing Ryu did; there was no portal back.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"Ahh General, I'm sorry for the intrusion if we had known it be such a celebration would of brought more then a sniper team."
Aidan02/18/2020
"Let's get to a place a bit more comfortable to talk. I'm afraid until we get a few things sorted out, my guards will be joining us. Nik, I'd like you to stay as well. "
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki looked to Ryu.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"That'd be wonderful, Former Captain Ryuji Yamamoto its nice to meet you. I'm sorry Macadamia they came soon after" he would fold up the chair and give it back to the girl.

"Its a joke, we just both happen to be ex-military on different teams I thought I'd tried to lighten the mood, and put our cards on the table."

"Space?" Maki said inside herself not realizing that they were in space.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"hmm, none of the stars seem familiar." he says looking at the map inspecting it "We aren't spacefaring place, but we do get that weird stuff like uhh Prome over there" he points to the small robot diligently following Ryuji

(Not on his normal duty uniform)
Tuncecine02/18/2020
(fair enough)
Aidan02/18/2020
"Well, at least you ended up here. You could have opened a portal to a bug nest." He shuddered involuntarily.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Bugs... Like the ones in the Outlands?" Maki asked.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
Ryuji begins rummaging in his bag "We checked with a camera before coming here. I might have somethings that might help with some form of identification."
Aidan02/18/2020
Niklas brought up some images from the various fights, shown to scale.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Are yours as fire breathing and poison spewing as ours?" Maki asked seeming interested in the mention of something the two could shoot.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
Ryuji pulls out his service medals one a golden cross and a purple heart "are these anything like your own, and does it help."
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki follows the guards picking up her bag heading to somewhre less; hallway.
Gainz02/18/2020
(im here, just got here. was cleaning room... -catching up)
Aidan02/18/2020
Aidan poofed into his dress uniform. After 20 years of service in multiple campaigns he was running out of room. Silver star with clusters, purple heart with oak leaves, and multiple ribbons from several wars.
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki keeps her curiosity held within herself but the sight of all the history intrigued her. She kept an unmoved emotionless posture as was normal for her.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"Neat, reminds me of the old commander. so are we going to be put to work or are we under arrest? I don't think we have many cards to play and Macaroons here is going to stay pretty relaxed."
Aidan02/18/2020
"First things first. You are going to Medical to make sure there isn't anything that can hurt us and vice versa you by extension. After Medical clears you, we will find a spot for you and go from there. For now you will be restricted on some of the ships functions and I will need to post a guard.
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki nods providing no other reaction.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"Fair enough, Little mac will go first for medical if you don't mind"
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
"Interesting." says Dawn, approaching from behind the group. "And not detaining and interrogating them to make sure that they are not a threat?"
atsumari02/18/2020
She gives Ryu her backpack then is taken by guards to medical still provding no reaction.
(Stoic people are immoveable lol)
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"we have shown no signs of aggression ma'am."
Gainz02/18/2020
Down the hall from where all the action is happening, the door to Ari's office opens up and this short dude with an odd white and red uniform and this really out of place but awesome cape walks out. Gainz glances over at where all the marines are at and raises an eyebrow.
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
(napolean syndrome?)
Aidan02/18/2020
"I was trying to NOT go heavy handed on our new visitors, but since you are so keen, I will leave the detain and question to you, and the implied consequences." Aidan said to Dawn.
Gainz02/18/2020
(well the EU gave him the cape, Lol)
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"And I probably have the smallest caliber of gun probably on this ship, not even a threat to anyone."
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki and her guards arrive at medical. The marine explains to Dr. Yaname that she needs an evaluation. The doctor has Maki sit on a biobed and then begins her scans.
The doctor finds numerous combat wounds all over this girl, bone breaks... She has not had some very good days. Beyond the long list of healed brokenness she physically was in perfect shape and of no threat to anyone at least in the manner of disease and illness.
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
"Better safe than sorry" Dawn replies to Aidan. "After all I am supposed to look after you in a technicality."
atsumari02/18/2020
The Doctor does an evaluation of her; briefly; brain scans are fine. She is definitely a solider in some manner. She doesn't talk much but the doctor just attributes that to life. Natsumi releases her back to the marines.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I don't suppose you guys have pizza in your rotation of meals? I was supposed to be in the next test batch and pizza is my favorite." Ryuji makes idle chatter to the other people while waiting his turn
Gainz02/18/2020
Suddenly that short black dude is back, just walking casually into the medbay and hearing the tail end of that conversation. "Did somebody say...pizza? Shit I havent had that shit in 2500 years, where it at?" Gainz asks.
atsumari02/18/2020
The marines come back with Maki while the others are chatting. Ari follows Gainz out of her office a few minutes later following the very obvious wall of soldiers. "Pizza... You could just replicate some you know?" Ari said to Gainz patting him on the head.
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
"Rotation of test meals?" Dawn asks, raising an eyebrow. "From exactly where are you from?" she asks. She then turns to Ari and curtsies. "Hello, Miss Erin."
(i forgot her name again ffs)
atsumari02/18/2020
(Maki and Ryu?)
Gainz02/18/2020
"Nah man, replicators never will be like the real thang. Aint nothin like that real Brooklyn pizza from New York." Gainz replied
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
(Ari's given name)
atsumari02/18/2020
(Erin)
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
(fixed)
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I can make those, I just need to go through medical, maybe get interrogated."
atsumari02/18/2020
Ari rolls her eyes at the mention of her real name. Maki stands with the group. She looks at gainz confused by his suit.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
Ryuji went into medical waiting for the scans on him
atsumari02/18/2020
Natsumi assigns the other person to Ayasha as she is dealing with a crewmen who burned w hole through HIS CHEST with a phase inversion repair tool.
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz notices the dude with the hole through his chest and is like "Dayum. Shit look like it hurt."
atsumari02/18/2020
Maki nods. "Now that is an injury."
Aidan02/18/2020
(How large is the hole and how deep?)
atsumari02/18/2020
(Through his chest and its.... about an inch thick
You can see through it)
Aidan02/18/2020
(Through his entire body?)
atsumari02/18/2020
(its a through and through)
Aidan02/18/2020
(Obviously not through his heart)
atsumari02/18/2020
(Correct)
Maki looks over to Gainz "You seem powerful?"
Gainz02/18/2020
"Powerful, is accurate. Yes." Gainz says nodding.
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
(would she also notice dawn isnt a living being at all? hmmmm)
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz seems quite interested that this new person can sense his energy. "You have Ki affinity..." Gainz said. It wasnt so much as a question as it was a statement.
atsumari02/18/2020
(Ayasha is doing Ryus physical so Natsumi can resolve the dying guy with the hole in his chest)
Maki observes gainz intently seeming ot attempt to find more about his power.
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz approaches closer to the small girl. For him though, they were just about the same height. She kinda reminded him of Vanilla with that. "What's your name?" Gainz asked in a friendly tone.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Makigisa Tahoshi " She said to Gainz still trying ot figure out his power as he approached her.
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz could sense her Ki levels were quite high, the highest hes felt in a long time. "Good to meet you. My name's Gainz. You're quite strong yourself. I havent felt anyone else like this since...him..." Gainz said as he trailed off on that thought. "What business you have here?" Gainz asked.
atsumari02/18/2020
"We are an exploration team; advance unit just sent to see what was on the other side of the portal." Maki explained to gainz.
Aidan02/18/2020
Ayasha performed the scans of her patient, taking vitals, and noting characteristics. She had no idea what normal was for their race. Then again, comparative xenobiology was next semester.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
He appeared human, there was metal object in his lung but that has been healed over very well it would take a surgeon to remove it "Am I cleared for service doc?" Ryuji asked
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
"So you were thrown through the portal just to see what's on the other side?" Dawn asks Maki.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Correct."
She said as if nothing was wrong with that.
Gainz02/18/2020
"An exploration team huh...with that kind of power? You sure?" Gainz asked. He was quite skeptical. Someone with that kind of power wouldnt just be going off on peaceful exploration missions he thought to himself.
Aidan02/18/2020
(a surgeon in their place. here it could be beamed out)
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
"Without any precautions in case things goes sideways horribly?" Dawn asks.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
(I rolled for stats and wanted to have a good reason why his con is absolutely terrible so I'm trying to keep it in there for rp reasons and for gaining con later)
atsumari02/18/2020
"We did send a camera through." Maki said to Dawn.
Aidan02/18/2020
Ayasha passed the padd up to the doctor. "I'll let the doctors decide that, but I don't detect anything harmful." She said to Ryuji.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"Fair enough." Ryuji replied
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
Dawn sighs. "And no procedures to guarantee your safety if it were to go wrong I take it?"
atsumari02/18/2020
Natsumi continues to work to save the poor dying guy and drags him away to surgery. The Nurse practitioner walks in as he was called in to help cover given the person she was working on. Josh reviews the chart. "We should refer you to the surgical team; has anyone talked to you about your l ow iron levels?" the nurse practitioner asked Ryu.
Maki shrugged at Dawn
"If you don't believe what I am saying... Well... Nothing I can do about that." Maki said to Gainz giving no further reaction.
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
Dawn groans and mumbles to herself for awhile. "So all you are here is to see how the other side is?"
(exasperated androids lol)
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I am pretty sure just lead poisoning is good enough to deal with low iron doc, am I cleared doc I got no bugs in me?" he replied this time snarky
atsumari02/18/2020
"Yes." Maki said to Dawn.
Aidan02/18/2020
Ayasha grabbed a device from table.She placed it over the area and tapped the button. A small whirr ensued and the metal piece clinked into the trap. She handed Ryu the object. "Here ya go. Souvenir."
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz shrugs "Fair enough." Gainz crosses his arms. "So are you just exploring for the sake of knowledge? Or is there some, other purpose?" Gainz asked
atsumari02/18/2020
"My government told me to." Maki said to gainz.
It was pretty simple she was just doing a mission.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
The small robot grabbed the bullet out of Ryuji's hand and eats it like it were a greenie "thanks."
Inori Yuzuriha02/18/2020
Dawn turns to Aidan," I guess they're your responsibility now. I'll go make something for our guests to eat." and with that and a bow, she leaves for the cafeteria.
Aidan02/18/2020
Looks up from the padd. "We'll get some guest quarters. Feel free to avail yourself of the lounge and virtual reality rooms. Anything else, just ask the computer a question. She'll be happy to answer. Questions? Comments? Emotional outbursts?" Aidan offered to the party.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Emotional outbursts serve no purpose." Maki said.
Gainz02/18/2020
"I dunno, sometimes they can be a lot of fun...depending on the circumstances." Gainz says with a grin.
atsumari02/18/2020
"Fun..." Maki tilts her head at Gainz.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
Ryuji gets up from the table.
Gainz02/18/2020
Gainz looks back at her with a raised eyebrow. "Yeah...jeez do you not have fun where you're from?" Gainz asked.
atsumari02/18/2020
"There are fun things." Maki said still with no emotions.
Gainz02/18/2020
"Sheeeeit....sounds like you have just about as much fun as a rock." Gainz said.
atsumari02/18/2020
"... Well... Then show me how much fun you have..." Maki said shrugging.
Tuncecine02/18/2020
"I guess I could make those pizza's now"
atsumari02/18/2020
<END SIM>

<START>
Maki had set up her room and then returned to the place where she had admired the stars with Valona and eventually held her hand. She now knew they were actually in space. Something about the stares intrigued her; Maki liked there very much she realized as she stood in the lounge by the window staring out at them. The bartenders knew of the oddities that were people in Team One and those who supported Trinity so assuming Maki was one of them the bartenders just left her to her strange staring out the window at the stars as if they were the only interesting thing in the universe.
TuncecineToday at 1:49 PM
Ryuji enters the lounge looking for Maki "Hey Makapon, there you are." he finds a chair to sit next to her "stargazing?" he asked plainly
atsumariToday at 1:55 PM
"This place is interesting. Did you see the catgirl... It sounds like something that would be an Atsikai; but she's a person. We are actually in space... So I guess that would be a correct term for it..." Maki ssaid to him apparently explaining what she had been doing since he was in medical being checked out.
TuncecineToday at 1:57 PM
"you seem pretty excited. did you always want to go to space?" he asked after listening to her
atsumariToday at 2:00 PM
"It is not that I am excited; more... Experiencing newness... Things that sort of blow your mind. Some things that shouldn't be possible... In our world the legends say we; Humanity came from space... I guess that isn't so much legend anymore." She said in a neutral tone as if somehow confirming fact by their ending up here from the portal.
TuncecineToday at 2:05 PM
"I threw out common sense the moment we went through the portal, but it is pretty crazy. Do you have any suggestion for our next move, well besides finding a way to message back?
atsumariToday at 2:06 PM
"I'm not sure. I think at the least we help them... And find a way to reach home... Though if the portal is one way." She shook her head no; as if signaling that she didn't know of any way to reach their home.
"These people seem like regular military even if they have their own magic... It is likely we are more versed in this sort of magical stuff than they even are."
TuncecineToday at 2:12 PM
"mmn that could be annoying." he replied stretching a bit "So are we just going to continue our normal work here then?"
atsumariToday at 2:13 PM
She simply nods.
TuncecineToday at 2:15 PM
"Well should we go ask where we can put our heads down maybe get lunch, I did say I'd make pizza"
atsumariToday at 2:16 PM
"They issued me a room. It had two beds; I don't know if they intended us to stay together." She said. The mention of food however didn't get a response. If he made food; she would eat. On the other hand this lounges food was foreign to her. She would not eat here.
TuncecineToday at 2:20 PM
"Lets go find a cafeteria, I'll make you a nice bacon and sausage pizza" he suggests as he gets up
atsumariToday at 2:21 PM
"I think our room has a kitchen." She states.
"Shouldn't you drop off your bag there anyway; no wonder you cant stand... its probably really heavy."
TuncecineToday at 2:25 PM
"That's not why I can't stand besides I am used to this weight it doesn't bother me."
atsumariToday at 2:26 PM
She doesnt say anything else only walking off without saying anything expecting him to follow her as she went to the room prepared.
TuncecineToday at 2:27 PM
He does follow as she knows where the room is and he doesn't want to lose track of her again, she tends to be hard to find
atsumariToday at 2:30 PM
Once the arrived at the door she opened it. Inside the room was two big beds, a couch, desk, wardrobes for both of them a bathroom with shower and a small kitchen with replicator and a small fridge that automatically stocked itself for races that didnt understand how to use a replicator. . Her bag and belongings were already unloaded into the right wardrobe and it seemed she selected the right bed.
TuncecineToday at 2:36 PM
He grabs the ingredients to make some pizza dough along with what he is going to use for everything else "feel like helping me make the dough?"
atsumariToday at 2:45 PM
"Cooking..." She said in an emotionless tone. She washed her hands and began to help him.
eh... discord)
TuncecineToday at 2:46 PM
(all she is doing is rolling the dough so no worries)
TuncecineToday at 2:47 PM
"cooking can be fun right?" (OHHH DAAAAYUM)
atsumariToday at 2:47 PM
(Along iwth her domestic skills; that food is prepared)
TuncecineToday at 2:47 PM
(hell yeah it is)
atsumariToday at 2:49 PM
When he states it can be fun she expertly lays out the dough as if she were a natural and even helps get it ready to be in the oven. She moved in such a way that cooking this would be like sleeping. She doesnt even say a word in response.
TuncecineToday at 2:50 PM
in tandem they move and cook like nobodies business they have been partners long enough where words are barely needed between them as they make pizza
(he got a 19)
atsumariToday at 2:51 PM
As the food is placed to bake the expert nature of its creation will make the pizza taste even more amazing than it should. This was like something someone in New York would pay $50 for.
(THIS IS PIZZA!!)
(if we made this pizza for the enemy it might turn them to ur side it tastes so good LOL)
TuncecineToday at 2:53 PM
they don't make just one style of pizza either they made three different pizza's as if they were readying a welcoming party for themselves a New York pizza a Chicago deep dish and a Neapolitan style pizza
atsumariToday at 2:57 PM
Maki sets a timer and then sits on her bed not speaking.
( @RP Player people are welcome to come in if they are here; after all home cooking probably doesnt happen much on the ship so the smell would travel)
(Drawing people)
OscarLast Sunday at 3:09 PM
(But wait, aren't I supposed to be on a mission?)
atsumariLast Sunday at 3:09 PM
(After all a critically baked pizza with epic rolling and preparation... the pizzas will be something Mith would eat lol)
(oh your n the planet)
(yeah those on the planet cant particiapte here)
OscarLast Sunday at 3:10 PM
( :portydrool: thought so.)
atsumariLast Sunday at 3:10 PM
(ill be coontinuing the mission on the ground later tonight)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 3:15 PM
(so basically the smell of top notch pizza fills the air anyone on the ship can participate)
OscarLast Sunday at 3:15 PM
(Fun fact, I just ate some pizza. :akakek:)
atsumariLast Sunday at 3:16 PM
(and my family just got pizza)
OscarLast Sunday at 3:16 PM
( :hug:@atsumari)
atsumariLast Sunday at 3:18 PM
The food finishes. Maki continues to wait.
(Food here. Eating)
AidanLast Sunday at 3:33 PM
(Here)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 3:34 PM
(aidan smells great pizza
AidanLast Sunday at 3:35 PM
(If this were a cruise ship maybe. :P)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 3:37 PM
(the two new guys made pizza and got a 19-20 to make pizza)
AidanLast Sunday at 3:38 PM
(okay)
(Aidan is enjoying a rare day behind the wheel of an ancient roadster in VRX)
(Brb)
Angel (Valona Longweave)Last Sunday at 3:52 PM
I'd maybe join in if I wasn't out and busy and that, rip, lol)
AidanLast Sunday at 4:16 PM
(back)
(Where are they cooking the pizza?)
(Never mind)
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:25 PM
(Their room; a small kitchen is in it as its one of the guest rooms)
The food finished and Maki came back over taking pizza's out and cutting then then indulging in food herself. As she ate there was no outward reaction but she was enjoying herself. The well made food improved an already good even if strange day.
TuncecineLast Sunday at 4:30 PM
Ryuji takes a slice of pizza and begins eating quietly enjoying the peace of the ship, he'll look around the room thinking of what he could do to spruce it up a bit
AidanLast Sunday at 4:31 PM
(Would the door be open? That's the only way I can think scent would travel.)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 4:31 PM
(probably yeah)
AidanLast Sunday at 4:32 PM
Erin in charge of the Lavie and Aidan's staff handling much of the tedium, it was a rare thing to have a bit of free time. He'd spent 15 minutes pouring over details on the VRX simulation he was running.
Concessions had to be made for the 1930's style car he was driving. Being 6'4", there were very few roadsters he would fit into much less be comfortable driving from that era. The bright yellow and dark blue boattail speedster had a throaty turbocharged inine 8, another minor concession. This wasn't purely about speed, there were far more capable cars if that was the goal. He simply wanted to relax and concentrate on something other his day normally involved.
Wind blew through Aidan's short's hair as he drove down the Cayuga highway. It was fall in the simulation, so trees had a mixture of oranges, red, and yellows that reminded Aidan of home. He preferred the manual transmission, rowing through the gears as the roads twisted and turned. After 90 minutes, he needed to stop for food and a bathroom break. He walked through their quarters, tending to necessary things and started to walked towards the lift, heading for the mess hall.
Smelling food in the air, as he got off on the correct deck, wasn't abnormal but it didn't tend to travel that far. Seeing and open set of crew quarters, Aidan realized it was where the new arrivals had been placed. As he got to the doorway, he knocked on the inside of the wall.
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:35 PM
Maki finished eating rather fast but she was still clean and not messy about her eating. Once finished she just cleaned up herself and took up residence on the couch in the room so she could look out the window at the stars again.
As Ayano has finished her simulations for the day to keep up with her mech training she heads to her own quarters passing by the smell of pizza. She stops by the door noticing it open. The silver haired girl tilted her head and knocked on the side of the wall since the door was open. "Care for company?" She asked.
TuncecineLast Sunday at 4:42 PM
Ryuji turned to the knocking on the door "hey we thought we'd make our own welcoming party if you don't mind too much. You are free to join if you like." he said to both the people at the door
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:44 PM
"Sure..." Ayano said walking in; the 5' 4" half-Asian said entering the room. She introduced herself before going for food. "I'm Ayano; I lead the ship's mech detachment... So what do you two do?" She asked not having been in the loop with their arrival.
AidanLast Sunday at 4:45 PM
Aidan commented, "you don't seem to be too out of sorts for people that are now across the galaxy and not underwater." He bumped Ayano on the shoulder as he winked at her in recognition.
OscarLast Sunday at 4:47 PM
(If I were to drive a car, I'd take the 1987 model Toyota Carina II DX)
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:48 PM
Maki was still sitting staring out of the ship at the stars. Ayano shrugged tilting her head at Aidan before sitting next to the unmoving, untalking girl.
TuncecineLast Sunday at 4:48 PM
"I adapt rather quickly, and we obviously make great pizza." he said answering them both smiling coyly "I think we have enough seats for everyone, where is that tiny guy?"
AidanLast Sunday at 4:53 PM
'Well...that's not me." Aidan said with a grin."
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:54 PM
Ayano stares at Maki. "and who might you be?" Maki doesnt look away from the stars but replies. "Makigisa Tahoshi; I'm an agent with a sort of spirit police and investigation unit that specializes in those type of supernatural cases. Since your superior didn't know what our agencies name meant and your in space... There an explaination you can understand." Maki said without emotion. "Hum... spirit cops... howd you end up here then..." "A portal." Maki replied simply.
AidanLast Sunday at 4:56 PM
(what's on the pizza assuming there is any 😛 )
atsumariLast Sunday at 4:57 PM
(there is three pizzas)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 4:57 PM
(the New york pizza has bacon and sausage)
AidanLast Sunday at 5:03 PM
Aidan asked if he could have a slice, taking one and a napkin. He want to the replicator, and grabbed crushed red pepper flakes and some grated parmesan. Must have for pizza. "Thanks."
Aidan asked, "Is pizza common where you come from? I'd be curious at the differences and similarities in all kinds of food."
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:14 PM
"its common especially when one is in college and the likes, kinda like chain restaurants." he answers "But getting good fresh pizza is a little less common as only a few places make it from scratch or make it well." Ryuji grabs the tiny robot-like thing that follows him to keep him from gnawing on the furniture "I know a few recipes I'd be happy to share them, do you guys use phones or something to get a hold of each other?"
AidanLast Sunday at 5:17 PM
"We have a few ways we get in touch with each other. You can say something like call out the persons name and it will call them through the computer. If you'd like we can get you some old school communicators. Ours are implanted." Aidan offered, pointing towards his head.
Walking to the wall, he inputted a few commands and a pair of combadges came out. "Once you pick them up, it will key in on your dna. No one else can use them."
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:24 PM
"I see well that's good to know its good to keep in contact while you are out in the field for a while or sharing recipes I guess." Ryuji remarked curious as to why they implanted the devices but not saying it
AidanLast Sunday at 5:27 PM
(any sufficiently advanced technology is akin to magic)
atsumariLast Sunday at 5:28 PM
"Couldn't we issue then VX is they are working with us?" Ayano asked.
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:29 PM
(they don't know about any of the other features so Ryuji thinks "man implanting cellphones in your neck sounds weird.")
AidanLast Sunday at 5:30 PM
Aidan shot Ayano a look. "I would prefer to get them up to speed before we start giving them military grade technology. No offense intended, but you did just show up unannounced."
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:32 PM
"Thats fair, but could we have shown up any other way?" he responded
AidanLast Sunday at 5:33 PM
"Also fair. I have no problem getting you the civilian model. I would prefer to know where you fit in before I hand over more keys to the kingdom as it were." Aidan offered.
atsumariLast Sunday at 5:33 PM
Ayano finished her food and heads out "I'll leave you guys to it then." She then leaves Maki just stares out the window still giving no other reaction.
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:37 PM
"That's also true, is the rest of your teams out on a mission currently?" he asks
AidanLast Sunday at 5:39 PM
"No, the ship we are currently on is on a solo mission. We will rejoin the rest of the force soon." Aidan said.
(Was it something I said? Geez)
TuncecineLast Sunday at 5:44 PM
"Well, do they need help? I'm sure this place has one of those fancy teleporters that all the sci-fi movies have." ryuji begins eating another slice of the za
AidanLast Sunday at 5:47 PM
"Not from across known space." Aidan said, not mentioning Scott's bunker."We'd need to be closer. For now, get familiar with the ship and it's crew. The mess hall will help as there is usually someone in there at all times. The crew lounge as well. The more you talk and get familiar with things, the more at home you'll feel.

"No, I'm no engineer, but your body is converted to energy, then that energy is beamed to the other place and reassembled. There were early versions that had that problem. That was two millennia ago." Walking back to the wall he said, "Computer make two 25cm tablets (Roughly 10"). That should be more familiar to you and can be used to store your personal files as well." Aidan said.

As Maki, Aidan and Ryu were enjoying their day in pizza Dawn enters... Only for the four of them and the pizza to appear in the capital building but on the other side of it. A voice that seems quite trollish replies "All signs point to death!" Maki simply nods to the disembodied voice. "Totally normal for evil voices to come out of nowhere since they are too stupid to know when there ego is too large." She nods again at her comment. It was too quiet right now; like this side of the building was devoid of security.... (edited)

Ceci informs Scott that a body was just blown out of one of the capital buildings windows this causing a security alert. Though most of the capital police were only focused on one section of the capital building; it seemed rather odd. She also informs Scott that Aidan, the two new people and Dawn were removed from the ship and placed inside the capital building. She also relays the information about the cult to Scott. (This is why having a system of orbital defense satellites is useful; we really should have asked the Ceci network for info before sending a team down but I forget these things sometimes...

A familiar voice to Aidan comes over the comm "Tereanna Wilhim and the crew of the Millennium would be happy to be of service. I guess leaving a few of us here at Earth was beneficial even if we couldn't do much." A group of elite soldiers from Tere's crew was beamed down to Aidan's location. "Should I inform Trinity Command of your situation General?" Tere asked. The soldiers from here ship as they used to be FSF but were only loyal to Tere were highly powerful. They move into the rooms adjacent to t he group securing the area and forcing more civilians to leave. Eventually Capital police come; however they were not a welcome sight as they draw on Aidan and his group. Tere's elites point their phase weapons at the policemen and state. "This area is under control of the Trinity Combined Service under The Unified Council Défense Act. Lower your weapons immediately or we will fire." The Capital Police don't react.

The silver haired girl Maki was following smiles at the men running at them. one goes for a gun but the group of them are all cut into peices. The silver haired girl smiles. "So much currption; so much death.... That boy at least did my work for me with teh cult... now the senators are dead.... That is one problem solved.... I think I'll leave the rest to you guys..." She turns to Maki even tough the girl is cloaked and stares right into her eyes disappearing thereater leaving the mess of blood and bodies in her wake.

The lavie had arrived outside Earth II and a few hours had passed of debriefings with TUC Officials to name a few... Even people from Hukari's office were here now that her staff's hands were no loner tied by the Senate. Apparently murdering a few dozen Senators inside the Capital building got a lot of government attention and got people to listen to you. Jake had arrived. The President's Chief of Staff was staring at the room full of death. Capital Police and coroners were processing the dead; a rather gruesome job when parts of people were all over the place. The Capital Police though knowing they were with Trinity had detained Maki, Ryu and Oscar as they had no formal military commission with the Federation or TUC. Oscar worked for Orteria's army which only had jurisdiction within Orteria's space and nobody seemed to have any fucking clue who Maki and Ryuji were. The three were being held in their own interrogation room the typical type with just two chairs, a table and a light. Their weapons and gear were also taken. Erin had sent down additional hands to support Aidan with the investigation.

AidanToday at 6:22 PM
Aidan had set up a secure terminal to the Lavie. He needed access to things that went on and right now, he didn't really care about much else other than the investigation. He missed Sumire, but more than that, she had a keen mind, and it would have been nice to have her by his side for this.

His hacking skills and black ops training might come in handy to uncover clues about exactly who had done what here. He needed answers.

(like imagine the US capital building a secret senate meeting room has an alarm)

OscarToday at 6:24 PM
(Very true.)

atsumariToday at 6:24 PM
(literally an army of law enforcement would just swarm)
(thats what happened here)

TuncecineToday at 6:24 PM
Ryuji is just watching the door contemplating on just walking out, unfortunately he couldn't take others with him he decided against it after a while presumably in cuffs. He scanned the room before setting his eyes on the obvious one way glass they always have (are they all in a separate room from each other?)

atsumariToday at 6:25 PM
(yes)
(with guards; normal cops but still)

OscarToday at 6:27 PM
I just sit there calmly, scanning my surroundings with an expressionless face.
Then starting wonder what's going to happen next.

atsumariToday at 6:29 PM
Maki had gone over with a Capital Police Sargent what happened in the senate's committee chambers. Then a member of the Federation's Justice Department went over with her what happened. She was used to debriefing with her life of being given missions. Once the officers seemed satisficed and left her she just stared at the wall waiting. Next the detective and Justice Department official go into Oscar's cell. Maki; as she always was gave them all the facts; nothing more nothing less. The Justice Department official spoke first. "From the top; explain to me what transpired."

KimToday at 6:29 PM
Sanya stood by Aidan, waiting for further instructions on what to do next.
atsumariToday at 6:29 PM
(would b ehighly redundant for me to write the Maki and cops conversation as she would basically just be repeating the primer, story update and brief lol)
AidanToday at 6:30 PM
Ayasha, under orders was collecting forensic data in the room where it all happened. The scene was affecting her, she wasn't used to this level of violence. More than once she had to choke back bile rising in her throat. Ultimately she hoped she didn't have to excuse herself because of it.
atsumariToday at 6:33 PM
Jake left the room heading to go find out what actually happened. He entered Ryuji's interrogation room with a guard; whom he very immediately dismissed. "Jake Noris; Federation President's Chief of Staff.... Could you explain to me what happened?" He asked Ryuji. Since Ryuji wasn't from here apparently he wanted an unbias analysis of the situation. In truth he didn't know who exactly he could trust; he trusted Trinity to a point but following their alignment with Orteria he was unsure how far things went; everything was just too corrupted right now.
aqace100Today at 6:33 PM
scott still on the bridge of the earth 2 cityship sends a vx to aidan to see if hes needed
OscarToday at 6:33 PM
(So, should I just tell them what actually happened?)
atsumariToday at 6:34 PM
(tell then what happened for you)
OscarToday at 6:34 PM
(I didn't really kill them, to be fair.)
atsumariToday at 6:35 PM
(You killed the cult people; remember a wall of police just stormed this place; they dont know what; how who or even where you did)
(so explain to them)
OscarToday at 6:35 PM
(I mean the other dude killed himself, the other dude took too much damage I guess.)
atsumariToday at 6:36 PM
(they dont know what)
(think of thos objectivley you as an officer came up on a building that was fucked to literal hell; you foind a military unit there and some random "civilians" what are you going to do first DETAIN EVERYONE without reasonable cause to be thre)
(and secure the ENTIRE area)
OscarToday at 6:37 PM
"Well, I got separated from my group and after that I realized I was in a completely different place.. There were some cult members discussing some stuff so I thought it would be best to interfere with their "meeting". Which escalated to the point that the other person killed himself and for the other I used a bit too much force so he happened to die which wasn't my intention, that's all I can say."
I sigh as I shrug with my shoulders, just waiting there for the situation to calm down.
atsumariToday at 6:38 PM
"Explain who your group is?" The Justice official said to Oscar.
TuncecineToday at 6:38 PM
"You talked to the girl maki before me right? she would tell you she is rather good at that sort of thing, in my eyes all I know is I was in my room getting another slice of pizza and then I was somewhere else suddenly and thought I would have to start shooting soon, and then I walked into the room with my partner looking displeased. Now I'm here."
OscarToday at 6:38 PM
(Ah, fuck.)
TuncecineToday at 6:38 PM
(ryuji can break these cuffs!)
(insert yelling meme)
AidanToday at 6:39 PM
Aidan turned to Sanya. "Pull up a padd and help me sift through some of this data. I could use another set of eyes."
atsumariToday at 6:40 PM
"Actually I didn't speak to anyone else... that would be the Justice Department and Police... explain to me in your own words. And what do you mean randomly just somewhere else... Like someone with powers intervened?" Jake asked Ryuji.
OscarToday at 6:40 PM
(What the hell should I say?)
atsumariToday at 6:40 PM
(thats on you)
OscarToday at 6:41 PM
("The Trinity"? Lol.)
KimToday at 6:42 PM
Sanya nodded and grabbed a console beside him. Her hand glowed a soft shade of violet as the terminal powered on. "We're looking for aberrations in the code? Or in surveillance footage, right?"
AidanToday at 6:42 PM
( does Aidan see Jake or different rooms I suspect)
atsumariToday at 6:42 PM
(different room)
TuncecineToday at 6:42 PM
"I don't know, It felt like someone's power. it has a distinct feeling like an elevator dropping a few inches suddenly."
AidanToday at 6:43 PM
"More or less. Things that don't make sense or make too much sense." Aidan offered Sanya.
atsumariToday at 6:43 PM
"I see; so you mention your partner.... Please tell me where you hail from; Were you in the room when the murders happened or just outside?" Jake asked Ryuji.
AidanToday at 6:45 PM
(Oscar, just tell the, what Oscar did)
OscarToday at 6:46 PM
(What?)
TuncecineToday at 6:47 PM
"Outside, Unknown space. mind if I ask a question in return?"
atsumariToday at 6:47 PM
Jake nods "Feel free."
AidanToday at 6:48 PM
(Oscar is being interrogated for his part in the mission. So if he is asked. you tell them in character what Oscar did and saw, unless I am missing something)
TuncecineToday at 6:48 PM
"do you not people with powers that make face to face a bad idea around here?"
OscarToday at 6:48 PM
(Ah, yea. I did record the whole thing.)
AidanToday at 6:49 PM
Aidan got up, as much for a break as for anything else. Maybe if he was lucky, he'd find coffee.
atsumariToday at 6:50 PM
As the teams scan and investigate the room with the bodies they find that the senators were killed by some form of gem magic or advanced level of magical power. Beyond that it was unknown what affiliation the silver haired girl had or why she killed the Senators. The bodies are starting to be packed up and beamed out. This room would be closed for awhile. What was concerning to the other justice officials in the room not handing the interrogations and debriefings... What level of corruption truly was within the government for this committee to have been having its hands in so many things without any oversight.
KimToday at 6:53 PM
"From the mess, it reminds me of the monsters that attacked my ship. The victims were severed, yes? The feel of it is wrong... A perversion of the God's gift," Sanya frowned. Her right hand settled over the middle of her chest where her own gem resided. "Maybe... I follow her echo?"
atsumariToday at 6:53 PM
"We have lots of people with powers here; in fact we have a special unit within our civilian government that handles magical and paranormal cases called the Alchemy Commission." Jake answered Ryuji. "How did you happen to be on the lavie; obviously a non-member of our military ending up on a highly secure government facility... is a concern..." Jake asked in return having not spoken to Aidan and more only read duty reports so the information he had was old.
AidanToday at 6:55 PM
Rounding corner, Aidan saw a coffee cart nearby. He knew it looked a little odd and intimidating with Brutus in tow, but he really was beyond caring at the moment. He got a cup of what he assumed was coffee....he was wrong, it was bad. Overly sweet spiced hot apple juice. It even refused to stay in his mouth. Popping a couple of mints in his mouth he moved back to the investigation.
TuncecineToday at 6:55 PM
(are these cuffs metal?)
atsumariToday at 6:55 PM
(he is not in cuffs)
(the officers removed them when he was put in this room)
(there are guards outside)
(the chair, table and such are metal)
OscarToday at 6:56 PM
"Well, I am with the Trinity. Also I recorded the events that occurred on my side, if you would like to see."
I suggest as I cross my arms while leaning back.
(Btw, how can I show them when it's on my VX?)
atsumariToday at 6:56 PM
"How are you with Trinity; our records indicate you are from Orteria's army...?" The Justice official asked Oscar.
(You can send them the message)
AidanToday at 6:57 PM
(like attaching to email)
atsumariToday at 6:57 PM
(the justice deparmtent since you rnot formally part of their forces probalby has no idea you have a VX)
(So the civilian governmet is likely not looking for it otherwise they would know you had one)
(remember your being talked to by civilians; this isnt a military tribunal or anything so they would be out of the loop in certain military things)
TuncecineToday at 6:58 PM
"So where I'm from we got people who can do this as a minor thing." he waves his hands through the table like the table wasn't there "and a one way portal."
OscarToday at 6:58 PM
(Do they know about the VX tho?)
atsumariToday at 6:58 PM
(think of it this way you; a professional sodlier are talking to a police detective and a politician from the justice deparmtnet)
(these guys arent combat vets or experts at debriefing; the detective probalby has more experience at it but even then)
AidanToday at 6:59 PM
(there are civilian versions fo the Vx)
KimToday at 7:01 PM
"Are you okay, Aidan? You look like you ate a bee?" Sanya asked as she saw him walk back in.
OscarToday at 7:01 PM
(Can I just say; "I have the recording on my VX, I can send it to you if you wish to see it.")
aqace100Today at 7:01 PM
(gn)
atsumariToday at 7:02 PM
Jake nods as Ryuji puts his had through the table he had seen some crazy shit being under Hukari for so long and dismissed it; it merely confirmed that this guy knew magic or something. "I see; so as I understand it you were not actually involved in the murders or the assault... You helped Trinity out of necessity since you ended up here... You and that girl in the other room are from the same place... What exactly do you do there if you don't mind me asking?" Jake said asking Ryuji.
TuncecineToday at 7:02 PM
(the table doesn't disappear
His hands goes through it)
GainzToday at 7:03 PM
(gainz is still on the lavie, but i wonder if he can teleport where ppl are at if he dont know exactly where lol)
atsumariToday at 7:03 PM
(Gainz has been to earth II before; so yes)
(updated my post Josh)
(Oscar; yes)
GainzToday at 7:04 PM
(yeah hes been to the planet but he dunno where ppl are exactly down there. ill just roll LOL)
atsumariToday at 7:05 PM
(the capital builidng; he has been there)
(rmember as EU during random shit he has done fo rmith et el they sent him important places)
OscarToday at 7:05 PM
"I have the recording on my VX, I can send it to you if you wish to see it."
I suggest yet again, cutting the recording so it only has the recent even with the girl and the cult members.
atsumariToday at 7:05 PM
(so gainz has been there)
The Justice official asks Oscar to forward it to him.
AidanToday at 7:06 PM
Aidan made a face in general. "I wanted coffee....I got it's polar opposite. Found anything interesting?" He asked Sanya
TuncecineToday at 7:06 PM
"Kinda like your alchemy commission I suppose"
"we occasionally have to deal with a talking cat's demands for extra sardines."
atsumariToday at 7:10 PM
"So magical and paranormal investigations. I see... I guess that would explain going through the portal; its not like the actually scientists would go through it; they would send "grunts" but you guys tend to have more experience than most of those scientists..." Jake shrugged. "Alright; so... the complicated thing here is you are not a citizen of our world however since you just ended up here I can reach out to our citizen welfare department and get that sorted for you and your partner.... did the Lavie's medical staff check you both over?" Jake asked. He was gathering other details about what happened while he spoke to Ryuji. He was thinking about what questions remained about the overall plot and if he should have the military leave this one to Trinity; especially since the civilian government would DEMAND answers with the dead senators. it was easier for him to trust Trinity than it was the civilian government and some senatorial inquiry board... The senate investigating itself; nope.
(Hang on; rmember I am replying to five people)
(give me a moment before people start replying typing at 100 words a minute with no editing is hard)
OscarToday at 7:12 PM
I forward the recording to the official from Justice, showing the appearance of the silver haired girl with long hair in a long sleeveless dress, then continuing with the discussion of the cult members;
"We have informed them of our plans and given them the deadline... That is enough." The first man said as the second yells. "You fool; this Federation types only care about action; they did after all send one of their pets to spy on us; we may have turned her but the fact still remains they tried to infiltrate us... We warned them; now they must die!" "But we should give them more time... If they deliver the girl to us we can still complete our master's bidding..." "FOOLISH... They only understand action; kill them all, then kill those Orteria scum and take what is rightfully ours... We will revive the Phoenix!"
The rest of the recording mostly showing me beating the cult members up, also showing that the other committed suicide.
GainzToday at 7:12 PM
(woooh he barely made it lol)
OscarToday at 7:12 PM
"There you go."
I say as I lean back once again, collecting my thoughts as I keep calm.
TuncecineToday at 7:14 PM
"They sent the Ex-military Grunts, so we deferred to Aidan and followed his orders."
KimToday at 7:14 PM
Sanya pursed her lips together, "Well, the energy signatures are strange. It feels like they used uh, gem magic. I was thinking that I might be able to follow the echo that this sort of... tragedy leaves. It scars the psyche of the place. And it leaves a mark on the person that causes it. The souls of the lost cling to the person that unjustly ended their life... if you can believe in such things."
AidanToday at 7:15 PM
"It makes sense to me" Aidan offered. "Far stranger things happen in real life. Does this mean you can track it?" He asked her.
OscarToday at 7:16 PM
"Also, I was apparently led astray by something that seemed like a darkness spell, which brought me to the place where I encountered the cult members."
I add to my explanation.
GainzToday at 7:18 PM
(still in that hall where the senators died right?)
KimToday at 7:20 PM
"I think I can. The trail will fade as time passes. Ghosts and phantoms in the daylight. Or a dog tracking in the rain?" Sanya offered. "It'll be a bit strange. Will the police be afraid if I ask the Gods to guide us towards granting the dead justice?"
atsumariToday at 7:20 PM
Once Oscar sent the message to t he justice official he reviewed the recording. It did indeed show Oscar had nothing to do with the senators deaths. The official looked at the cop. "I think we have all we need; obviously you will be debriefed by someone in your own command structure but we will have you released." The Justice official also forwards this information to Jake and the others from Justice. As Ryuji explains further Jake nods getting the other message. "I see.... that makes things easier; I'll E-Mail the General as we have worked together and while you both are here obviously you'll report to him and his people. Based on the information I have gathered it seems this investigation will be you, the General and everyone on the Lavie's problem for awhile but that will be overseen by my office; at least on the Federation side; I have no idea who you report to within TUC." Jake gets up and knocks on the door the officer outside opens it. "This man and the woman in the next room are free to go." the cop stares at him confused as the Justice Department hasn't talked to Ryuji yet. "Look; consider this an order from the executive office; you guys may report to the Senate but obviously with a bunch of your employers dead... Who do you report to.... Don't get in the way of the executive branch's investigation. Your career might end prematurely." the cop leaves the door open and leaves. Jake comes back over to the table waiting ot see if Ryuji had anything else to say.
The justice official sends the information about the magic to the AC to have a magical specialist sent to investigate. He and the detective then leave allowing Oscar to report to his superiors.
AidanToday at 7:22 PM
"I wouldn't chant it loudly if that can be helped but let's see where it leads." Aidan offered.
atsumariToday at 7:24 PM
A cop opens Maki's interrogation room simply telling her shes free to go. She jsut stands an emotionless wall and walks out of the room like nothing happened.
KimToday at 7:26 PM
"Hmm, it's more a light I can't quite hide but I don't need the words out loud," Sanya tapped the side of her face near her right eye. "My eyes will turn violet but I think I can keep it to that."
AidanToday at 7:28 PM
Aidan informs Erin briefly on his and Sanya's plan. "Keep an ear out, I may need backup, or a nova bomb." He offered in his typical dry humor."
GainzToday at 7:28 PM
In a flash of light, suddenly some short guy with a white cape appears. Gainz manages to teleport in a hallway that still has remnants of blood splattered everywhere. "Well aint that some shit."
TuncecineToday at 7:30 PM
"Well if you have any questions or something I do need friends here." he smiles a bit "I don't got one of those chips in my neck but I'll probably will soon enough 'Ryuji Yamamoto" he said to jake as he leaves the room the gun appearing at his hip and he goes to grab his stuff "Hey Makamakamakamaka."
atsumariToday at 7:32 PM
Jake nods. "Thanks Mr. Yamamoto... I'll be in touch." Jake heads over to Aidan. Maki stands by Ryuji not saying anything. When he greets her she just shrugs.
Maki just leads Ryuji over to the rest of the group. Everyone is together.
(I totally was not following what you were doing Brian)
AidanToday at 7:35 PM
(Not sure what Sanya would need roll to detect that. )
KimToday at 7:36 PM
(Just tell me what you need me to roll since this is a sustained Perception check, aura reading, sense magic/direction type of thing?
A weird mix of Survivalism/Intel gathering/gem magic/wis or int.)
(Tracking is usually a survival roll, magic knowledge is an int.skill)
AidanToday at 7:37 PM
As Jake gets near Aidan's face softened somewhat. "Nice to see a friendly face in all this. To answer your next quip, Yes I think I know what I am doing, and I have never held out on you or felt you held out on me."
atsumariToday at 7:41 PM
"There is a large question going around... So we need to figure out who the woman in the dress was and why she did this; much less how... Any progress on that front... and no; I haven't held out on you... Neither have my superiors.... Arisa and Hukari want transparency within this government its everyone else who is politically corrupt as hell..." Jake looks over at Kim. "Jake Noris; the Federation President's Chief of Staff... So I have met the rest of this team; even if ever so briefly..." he said as if trying to probe for who she is.

(You wouldn't need to roll.... It is magic and it seems to be a mix of other gem magics but also something else.... gainz would detect it; its a form of Ki energy that only super powerful beings have.)
(that girl probably has a ki energy level of tier 3)
(she literally cut people in half with her energy)
AidanToday at 7:43 PM
(I assume Jake has a VX)
atsumariToday at 7:43 PM
(yes)
GainzToday at 7:44 PM
Gainz manages to catch up with some of Lavie's crew. "Yo, wassup." Gainz casually leaned against a wall and instinctively crossed his arms.
atsumariToday at 7:44 PM
Maki yawns; feeling a bit interested in the room she casts detect magic on it through mega.

AidanToday at 7:45 PM
Aidan VX's Jake a folder. "I am going to build a room in VXR. If nothing else, let's keep our com lines open." Out loud Aidan offered, "When I know more, you will know more. though it may not look like it, I am having my people try and detect the magic involved. It might lead to other clues."
atsumariToday at 7:46 PM
"Powerful..." maki finally said to the room.
KimToday at 7:47 PM
Sanya placed her right fist over her chest and bowed slightly to Jake. "Ensign Sanya Isilme, nice to meet you." She looked up and smiled politely. "Aidan, I will begin." She took 3 deep breaths and said a silent prayer. Her silver eyes took on a violet hue as she scanned the room with her hand slightly raised.
atsumariToday at 7:48 PM
Maki stares into Sanya's eyes as she begins casting magic "oooohhh...." She smiles at the magical power being emanated from the girl.
GainzToday at 7:49 PM
Gainz could start to sense something odd about this place. His eyes narrowed and his face took a more serious tone as he could sense remnants of an undeniable godly ki presence. "What exactly...happened here?"
atsumariToday at 7:49 PM
"The silver hair cut everything up with blades of her energy."
Maki said to Gainz since SOMEONE finally asked he rwhat happened.
"It's like your energy...." She said to Gainz.
GainzToday at 7:53 PM
"Silver haired girl? The fuck?" Gainz never thought there were even more people with ki levels this strong. It made him wonder where he fit in the large scheme of things. "So bitch went postal and cut some fools. Any idea why? Or where shes even from?"
atsumariToday at 7:54 PM
"Basically and no." Maki said.
AidanToday at 7:57 PM
"All we know is some of the senate was involved and killed for or by it. The rest is still in question." Aidan offered.
GainzToday at 8:00 PM
Gainz passively enters super mode as his hair stands on end. He feels like he cant be too off guard with an unknown energy this strong roaming around. He stays chilling against the wall but he is actively trying to sense if that being is still around on this planet.
KimToday at 8:01 PM
Sanya started wandering out of the room trying to grasp at the magical thread. She felt Gainz's power bristle against her skin as she moves past him.
atsumariToday at 8:02 PM
Maki tilts her head staring at the massive power.
After Gainz scanned he deteccted she wasnt here anymore.
Her energy was in this building and just stopped.

atsumariToday at 8:07 PM
"Yes." Maki said.
KimToday at 8:09 PM
Sanya continued through the building until she found where the magical line had been tied off. She looked up at the ceiling and frowned. "Do you have a way of scanning for a magic signature? I can have the VX sent this off..."
atsumariToday at 8:10 PM
"On this planet we do; beyond that you would need to know where else we need to send a team to scan." Jake said.
GainzToday at 8:11 PM
"Magic aint really my thang... My scouter isnt configured for it. If its fire or lightning...maybe I could feel it but I dont think I could tell anymore than that."
TuncecineToday at 8:13 PM
Ryuji is looking through his pack trying to find that spirit tracker that was given to him way back when he started
KimToday at 8:13 PM
"I can tried to divine for the other point, it'll take me some time." Sanya looked to Jake and Aidan, "Would this be permissible? I need several hours and a quiet room. We have enough to call and image."
atsumariToday at 8:16 PM
"mmmm...." Maki said as she followed Sanya. Jake nods. "I'll let the Arisa's AC and you magical girls of the universe do this." Jake leaves them to their scanning.

"Good question... I am just standing here; didn't they say we were free.... for awhile anyway?" Maki said actually managing to talk like a normal person for once.

Tuncecine02/29/2020
"after smelling these bowls of curry I feel like making some of my family's recipe for curry."
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan sent a command through VX as they walked. Soon a very large black aircar pulled up beside them. Aidan opened the doors" Everyone in. I'm driving."
atsumari02/29/2020
"Oh; the mention of pay; does that mean you guys will pay us better than the pennies SNIEF paid...." maki smiled nervously for the first time.
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan retorted, we give you food, board, medical, and the replicators. How much money do you need?"
atsumari02/29/2020
"You don't want to know how little SNIEF paid... Heh.... I guess they assumed our Contractors supported us; when all your partner does is cast magic and cease to exist that doesnt exactly help you... feed yourself...."
Maki replied apparently worried about money.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji enters the car "Maki and I had to rent an apartment together just to eat decent food before, it was bad times she can't do laundry she is bad at it."
atsumari02/29/2020
(SNIEF Agents are poor its why Asuna lives in her office lol)
Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha climbed in the back. "Who wants to go first? Simple and painless."
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki shrugs
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"I'll do it." ryuji sighs and gets closer
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan responded. "Have you seen anyone in need?"
atsumari02/29/2020
"There is no one in need; no homelessness... The government provides everything; citizens work becuase they want to." One of ht eguards outside of the Capital said since they were still standing in his proximity.
"That sounds like dystopian fiction..." Maki replied to the guard.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"I still remember Tea rice month."

Tuncecine02/29/2020
(Tea rice if I'm saying right is green tea poured over rice)
Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha had Ryuji sit next to her. She tapped a button and thin legs hit the bottom of the aircar. A small tool. came out. Aysha removed a small bit of hair. It was in and settling into Ryjui before she had a chance to grab the follicle stimulator. "Who's next"
atsumari02/29/2020
The guard shrugs. "They didn't give you guys the spider models... that crawl into your ears... I guess they finally realized those creep people out...." He laughs having a conversation with himself.
Aidan02/29/2020
(forgot about that)
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji moves away holding his head now having a headache from the VX stuff

atsumari02/29/2020
Maki tilts her head at the guard. "Spiders; the little microchips grow legs?"
The guard laughed at her lack of knowledge on the topic.
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan got behind the wheel and pulled up information. "So shopping, food, or other?"
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki grabbed one of the chips. "So to be cut open or have this crawl inside of me... Yeah... I'd rather be cut open...."
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Food would be my choice." Ryuji said
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki shrugs grabbing the stuff Ayasha used and repeats the action putting the chip inside of herself.
(go child soldier girl; pain is nothing; cut yourself open and dont even flinch lol)
She then gets in the car.
Aidan02/29/2020
"I could eat." Aidan said. "Computer...where is the nearest food court?"

~The nearest food court is at Marathon harbor inlet. 18km at bearing 123 degrees~
Aidan closed the doors remotely once they were all in.
atsumari02/29/2020
After a few moments the hud appears. Maki thinks about a map of the city and one appears with a GPS marker of her location. "Hum... So its like a tablet in my head...." She said inside herself.
Aidan02/29/2020
"It does more than that but essentially yes. Comms, email, files, camera, and some emergency medical." Aidan offered.
Kim02/29/2020
"New food is always good. This car thing... Is it statistically safe?" Sanya wondered out loud.
atsumari02/29/2020
Mak resumes her moment with the curry.
Aidan02/29/2020
"I've never been injured in accident." Aidan said. "We've had over 1000 years to work out the kinks. Everyone hold on. " Aidan started moving and sharply banked while climbing.
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki finishes her curry while they are driving. She is back to saying nothing.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Are headaches normal for new users?"
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki pats Ryuji on the head.
Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha flipped out a medical tricorder with one hand and popped the handheld scanner in the other "No, they are not." Ayasha scanned Ryuji without waiting for permission.
"what are you feeling exactly?" She asked her.
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki found the VX equivalent to Spotify and started listening to music in her head gaining an understanding for this place she ended up in.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Might just be interference with prome, he can speak to me mentally so its like having three voices in my head among other things."
atsumari02/29/2020
"So you hear voices too...." Maki said obviously joking but in a completely flat tone like she was being serious.

Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha pulled up the Vx interface, and sent the data to Niklas. "Give me a moment. Let me check for interference."
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Heh well he is an excitable one being so young."

Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha received an update. "We've had a to slow the bandwidth on yours a bit Ryuji. Get Niklas to take a look at Prome and I'm sure we can get things smoothed out soon?"
atsumari02/29/2020
As soon as the door opened Maki hopped out. She seems pretty content at least for her.
Aidan02/29/2020
"Is it any better?" she asked Ryuji?
Oscar02/29/2020
(Eh, I just feel out of place now to be fair.)
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Not really, but don't worry Prome will calm down in time its like bringing a kid somewhere new for the first time they wanna see everything."
atsumari02/29/2020
The report of the bandwidth issue and connection to an alternate creature generates a ticket with Lonhorn. Ed noticing it was from Trinity and where they were grabs his assistant and makes his spastic lecheries way to go see who's day he can save.

Tuncecine02/29/2020
the little robot that follows ryuji is swirling around his head beeping seemingly excitedly
Aidan02/29/2020
Small flying drones fly near the party flashing banners and ads
Aidan goes to the corner. There was a real coffee shop. He was finally able to get the taste of that nasty juice from the Senate. Ordering large coffee shake, we turned to the group to see what they were doing.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji was behind him trying to get a real coffee as well, he hasn't had one for a bit so the smell drew him in.
atsumari02/29/2020
By this time Three people had wlalked up to the group. Maki had deposited her bowl in what seemed like a trash can. She then came back to see a woman, a fourty something brown haired man in a leather jacket smirking. "Who broke themselves.... I've come to save all the pretty-" The woman with him swatted the back of his head "Shut up." She demanded. "Oh come on they don't really care..." "But your in public sir... Remember that." "Oh alright... Who reported the problem with a VX connection?" The man asked.
(Aidan might recognize them)
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan talked to the group. "A food court. A little of everything. To the newcomers, I have put an advance on your account. Don't buy a car and you'll have plenty of money."
atsumari02/29/2020
"Totally dont buy a car; I'll just give you one...." The man joked. Maki walks up to him. "You wanted to know whose thing is broken..." She points to Ryuji. The man looked disappeared.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji sips on his cup of coffee content with things even with the headache
atsumari02/29/2020
"Who are you anyway?" maki asked him. he turned to her more interested in the female talking ot him than fixing Ryuji. "I'm Ed." His assistant backhands him. "Stop being a perv; your here to do a job."

atsumari02/29/2020
Ed sighs "Geez Renae always so abusive.."
Oscar02/29/2020
I beam over to a corner near the coffee shop so I don't attract much attention, then walk over to the shop, get a coffee and then move over to where Aidan is.
"Whew, I'm glad we have all this advanced tech.. Otherwise I would've totally gotten left behind."
Aidan02/29/2020
Ayasha had her coffee by now. "Wouldn't kill you to go visit mom." She said standing next to Aidan. Aidan tried to keep any body language out of his reply. He failed. "I....you're right." He said finally. "I never hated her, just wished things had gone differently." He said surrendering to the inevitable.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji sips on his coffee while prome beeped along happily
atsumari02/29/2020
Ed finally goes over to Ryuji. "Hi there; Ed Lawson I'm the CEO of Lonhorn the company that helped build that thing in you rhead..." Renae pulls out a tricorder but it looks different. "Gem energy being is interfering; we can just switch the frequency...." "That simple huh... So I can go talk to the pre-" Renae throws the tricorder at him.
Kim02/29/2020
Sanya nodded to Aidan, "Thank you." She looked at all of the food counters and signs in amazement. She paused and said a quiet prayer, letting her eyes shift to a soft violet as she took a look around for the silver haired girl's thread again.
atsumari02/29/2020
"Stop with the violence...." Ed whined. Maki just watches what is happening.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"I don't know what you mean Gem energy." Ryuji finishes his cup
atsumari02/29/2020
"The thing floating next to you." Renae said to Ryuji.
Ed pulls out a small computer and types into it for fear that his assistant will abuse him more if he doesn't do something. He changes the frequencies the VX works on and resets the system. The hud Ryuji saw disappeared and then after a few moments appeared again
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"His name is Prome and he asked if he can keep reading that article you cut him off from."
atsumari02/29/2020
"Any residual headache would be from the massive amount fo data in your head.... nothing we can do about that but your little friend wont break your connection now at least..." Ed said.
"Sure...." Ed shrugged. "I'm not your guy's keeper; I just fix your shit when you break it."
"Or you when you break your back...."
Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan nodded back to Sanya. He liked viewing the wonders of his world through free eyes.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"Thanks Ed." Ryuji said being friendly
atsumari02/29/2020
"What does breaking your back have to do with I.T.?" Maki asked. "Oh; she's here....- I'm sorry Renae don't hurt me.... Um....- So we create cybernetics...." Ed replied to Maki without trying to hit on her.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"you remember what I explained to you maki in that one case with the guy who kept trying to flirt with you."
atsumari02/29/2020
"No; but its obvious with this guy... should i bust his balls?" Maki said to Ryuji asking him for permission to hurt Ed.
Tuncecine02/29/2020
"No I think his girlfriend is going to do that already."

Aidan02/29/2020
Aidan made a pact with Ayasha to at least call and talk to Carol while he was here, crisis permitting. He then wandered nearby and got a bowl of beef pho, and two banh mi vietnamese sandwiches. Sitting at a table, he waited for the others.
atsumari02/29/2020
"Why can't people just take my advances... Alexandria did... you people are cruel...." Ed whined. "Sir I keep telling you not to hit on random women; your lucky one hasn't killed you; you serve the military remember...." Renae said to her boss.
Renae takes the girlfriend comment and doesn't reply. She wouldnt date her employer; that would be just strange.
Oscar02/29/2020
(Maybe Gainz could keep Oscar some company)
Tuncecine02/29/2020
Ryuji doesn't know what they are to each other just patting maki on the head

atsumari02/29/2020
Ed runs off for fear of being harmed. "I'll be back to win all of your love!" Ed said to the area addressing all women in trinity. Renae sighs walking after her superior. "One of these days... your going to hurt yourself."

atsumari02/29/2020
Maki goes back over to the planter she was standing by observing the group more.

atsumari02/29/2020
Maki notices the food off in the distance and comes to the table Sanya, Ayasha and such were occupying... She looks at the food like a puppy.
(were just wandering the city Inori)
Tuncecine02/29/2020
ryuji grabs some food for Maki and himself before sitting down at a table

atsumari02/29/2020

Kim · April 20, 2020

<RESUME>
Maki was sitting with Aidan, Ayasha and Ryuji now not knowing what IAdan and Ayasha were talking about prior to her arrival as she was focused on everything else that was happening around her.
(areyou still here as well @Kim )
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(I wasn't here for any of it but the tail end, so I have no idea what is going on, or any of the last several group posts)

Jack Pine02/29/2020
(So kess perhaps?)
atsumari02/29/2020
(Jack would be here; they didnt use a shuttle to get here so kess wouldnt hav epiloted anything)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(or Sarah i guess)
atsumari02/29/2020
(would have been Sarah o rJack)
( @Tuncecine going ot resume with us or nah?)
Gainz02/29/2020
In a somewhat peaceful patch of land within the city, Gainz seemingly falls out of the sky; landing with an almost half squat. The G force of the landing makes a few cracks appear on the concrete that he landed upon. He hops lightly from his landing, seemingly unphased, and looks around his surroundings.
Oscar02/29/2020
(I'll try to roll for fun whether I noticed the small tremor or not. Lol.)
(Rng said yes.)
atsumari02/29/2020
(erm if you notice planetary security would too)
A security team is sent to investigate the loud sound reported to planetary security by a random citizen. A patrol car is sent.
The guards soon arrive and land their shuttle noticing gainz and cracks in the ground.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
Sarah beamed down, almost as if following after Gainz, striding up before giving the super-human a sideways glance. "Why can't you take a transporter like everyone else? You know how much property damage your causing? Gah, I'm ordering a tea, before he lands on the cafe too."
atsumari02/29/2020
The look from the cracks ot him. "is everything alright here sir?"
Oscar02/29/2020
I notice the small tremor that hit the ground just now, inspecting my surroundings as I try to look for the source.
"Hmm.. Strange."
I take a big sip from my coffee as I stay slightly alert.
Gainz02/29/2020
Gainz looks over his shoulder, the cape flipping over to the side as he turns around to the voice he heard. "Oh, my bad. I dont like using teleporters. The whole idea of being broken down and put back together rubs me the wrong way., just a tad." Gainz replies
atsumari02/29/2020
Maki noticing Oscar run off follows him after she had finished eating.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"Strange? How do you miss that? If this is normal, I'd hate to be from where ever you're from kid.", Sarah commented on what Oscar said as she passed him on the way to the counter. Ordering a cup of tea, she turned right back to rejoin the group she had passed.
(I assumed they were all together still sorry)
Oscar02/29/2020
(Ooh, she following.)
( :waow: )
atsumari02/29/2020
(my family wants to watch a movie; so Im actually going ot have to bow out of this one and post 1 on 1s later with people... sorry guys; though you guys are welcome to continue from here since it is just a leave post character dev.
)
(ill update the attendance sheet later to reflect all thsoe who showed on the sheet)
(sorry... bbl)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(Sarah is 43, looks 21, standing at 6'2 with a bombshell figure and DDs.)
Tuncecine02/29/2020
(I gotta sleep)
Gainz02/29/2020
"I actually thought I landed quite light... huh. Guess I should apply the brakes sooner." Gainz said before he takes a seat at a nearby bench. He wasnt much hungry, whatever Mith did to him permanently removed his appetite, but he enjoyed the smell of the various teas and other beverages at the cafe.
Oscar02/29/2020
"Yea, too bad I don't really remember where I'm from."
I throw a statement at Sarah as I shrug, then continue wandering.
atsumari02/29/2020
(and no post with Maki and gainz tonight Mon; when do you think you will have time to do something between then?)
Gainz02/29/2020
(Maybe sunday night)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(so just the three amigos tonight, gotcha)
Oscar02/29/2020
(Seems so.)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(Also you get to meet Sarah lol, I was telling you about her that one night we were chatting.)
She wasn't sure who to reply to first, but she figured introductions were in order. "I'm not familiar with you, but I am aware of Gainz. I work with team one as a sniper, Sarah Pine, pleasure to make both of your acquaintances. Sera has told me about you Gainz, thank you for helping her in the past."
Oscar02/29/2020
(Umm.. Is he that close to us rn tho?)
(I was kinda about get to the part where we actually find him. :waow: )
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(I'm assuming he landed close, if not right next everyone.)
Gainz02/29/2020
"No prob, glad I could be of service" Gainz did a respectful gesture, something similar to a half bow since he was sitting. He had his scouter out in his hand and seemed to be using it to sift through some old data that was still stored on it.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(pokes Oscar)
atsumari02/29/2020
(I’m here for a few minutes just over phone.) Maki notices Gainz as she goes with the group but she soon gets an email that causes her to leave. She gets an apartment on Earth II.
The police noticing Trinity show up head on their way.
Oscar02/29/2020
"Nice to meet you Sarah, my name is Oscar Kashima, but you can call me Oscar. It's a pleasure to meet you as well..~"
I extend my hand towards Sarah, offering a handshake.
atsumari02/29/2020
(Welp have fun you three.... looks like everyone else outed; Oscar dont you sleep it’s like fuck all hours for you)
Oscar02/29/2020
(I shall not sleep.)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
The woman boldly accepts it, giving his hand a delicate, yet firm shake. "Likewise, nice to see new faces. So what is the agenda for today, or are we just going to grab a table and chat? I would like to think our company would be more engaging then a hand device Gainz."
atsumari02/29/2020
(Sucks couldn’t meet the other characters oh well... hopefully there’s time later; with your shit schedule though hopefully we can find some time @Jack Pine )
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(who? Maki?)
atsumari02/29/2020
(because we are literally on entirely opposite schedules now… With my working for Amazon and being awake from the hours of 6 AM to 10 PM Waverley we are on entirely different schedules)
Oscar02/29/2020
I shift my gaze towards Gainz, having a curious expression on my face.
"Hmm... So you are the Gainz I've heard so much about.. Nice to meet you as well."
I say as I move a bit closer to him, offering a fist bump.
Gainz02/29/2020
There was an old message that was unread on the scouter that Gainz never noticed till now, but he decided to close the scouter. He looks up at Oscar and greets him answering his fist bump. "Yeah that be me.
Wassup?"
Oscar02/29/2020
"Nothing much, we just came back from a mission so we've got some free time right now.. Would you like to sit down a chat like Sarah suggested?"
I smile a bit as I feel like I've met yet another interesting person. Then taking a seat at the nearest table.
Gainz02/29/2020
"Sure no prob, you must be new around here." Gainz says as he gets up. He must have seem odd to Oscar, to be so strong yet have such a short stature with it. Gainz took a seat with the others at a table.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"Seraphina has buckled down and really kept to the training regiment you taught her. She's a healer you'd be proud of goldie locks, even got her wings back too. I'd say she's almost right as rain, and much more positive lately. Almost makes me want to take up chi training myself, but I have more faith in my rifle, no offense." Sarah said this idle as she pulled up a chair, waiting for introductions to complete, before simply adding the filler conversation in until they picked a topic to mutually discuss.
Gainz02/29/2020
"No offense taken, different strokes for different folks. I'm more of a close up and personal kind of weapon." Gainz replied. He leaned back all in his chair relaxing, cracking his knuckles in his hands.
Marie02/29/2020
(or a Low Orbit Ion Cannon, depending on the situation...)
Oscar02/29/2020
"I haven't really trained much with my powers.. I kinda just had them when I woke up in some kind of lab, since they had found me lying on the bottom of a small crater. Though they said that my powers are currently weakened for some reason.. They had a theory that I might've lost most of my powers considering that I might've just fallen out of that void straight to Orteria...which would mean I subconsciously used my powers to protect myself from the fall. And that would explain my current state."
I tap on the table as I try to recall all the stuff the people who examined my body said to me.
"Oh yeah, I am apparently most likely going to regain my powers completely, but it will take a long time.. No one knows how long that will be though."
Gainz02/29/2020
"I sense Ki within you. At least thats what it seems to me. We seem to be comin up on a lot of Ki awakened individuals lately, thats exciting. I havent had a good fight in a long while. Fighting the Phoenix was the real last time I let loose. Fight was chaotic, I think I almost died...but I managed."
atsumari02/29/2020
(Ugh... wish I was here waiting is a pain)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"I've met crazier then that whack job who dained himself god. But you know....", Sarah began with the forming of a playful smirk. "Gainz, on the topic of this young man, he is almost like the outcome of another reality. One where if you and I had a child, he even has my son's hair, and matches about in age too." She said this before giving a small giggle at her little joke.
Oscar02/29/2020
"The power I have is apparently very similar to Ki, it was named "Phase Force" after they discovered it within me. It can apparently be surgically transplanted into someone which sounds kind of far fetched if you ask me.. But they said it could be possible. I am currently the only known person to have awakened this strange "Phase Force", not that I know the details of it that well either."
I shrug as I'm not sure what more I could say, smirking a bit at Sarah's joke but not commenting on it in any way.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(damn, her joke had no effect lmao)
Gainz02/29/2020
Gainz leaned forwards and smirked at Sarah's comment. "That sounds like a very interesting alternate universe. I wonder if in some alternate plane if something like that actually happened." Gainz leaned back and snickered. "There are after all...multiple universes. I've seen that first hand."
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"Well yeah, I, along with Sera, Jack, and Kess. All came from another on our ship. We only fit in so well due to similarities in culture.", she replied with a smile.
Gainz02/29/2020
"Well...when you've run into a universe where you have to fight yourself, then you'll know the kind of dimensional shenanigan's i'm talkin about." Gainz says.
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(be back in a minute, gotta take a restroom break)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(back)
Gainz02/29/2020
(wb)
Oscar02/29/2020
(I did the same, sorry I forgot to tell you guys.)
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"I've already done that in my own actually, believe me it was a weird place to begin with. Cloning, and duplicating souls, were a legitimate worry. But I doubt we're even missed for that reason."
Gainz02/29/2020
"Cloning...heh, I guess every civilization crosses that line dont they. Fun fact, I'm actually engineered from someone else..."
Oscar02/29/2020
(Asura's Wrath :portydrool: )
Jack Pine02/29/2020
"My son is the same way. I did not give birth to him, he was made from me by someone who sought to miss use that genetic material. Though my son explained that this was the same case with you as well? I believe you two talked a long time ago when we first arrived.", Sarah answered before looking at the still quiet Oscar. "Now I know I couldn't have possibly scared you to be this quiet. Speak up already, maybe we want to hear that voice."
Oscar02/29/2020
(Kinda confused about how I'm supposed to reply)
Gainz02/29/2020
"It's....a long story...and it was even longer ago. But I'm a carbon copy of the dude on steroids. And yes I'd say Skynet most likely stepped over a few moral barriers with my creation. But back in those times, they deemed it necessary."
Jack Pine02/29/2020
(Oscar: "Holy shit, you both are weirdos!" :wat: )
(lmao)
(Is there any way we can help?)

Veilfloe03/01/2020
"the silver haired girl? maybe..? I have a large reservoir of Gem Magic however" Veil offered
Oscar03/01/2020
Oscar raises his hand in the corner.
"I met her right before she killed those senators.."
He says a bit hesitantly as he thinks it might sound kind of suspicious.
atsumari03/01/2020
"Um..." Maki opens her eyes staring at Oscar.
Oscar03/01/2020
"Oh, yeah.. I probably should've made my presence known earlier...haha."
He chuckles a bit awkwardly as he nervously rubs his cheek with his index finger.
atsumari03/01/2020
A car arrives outside of the apartment building. Three agents from the Alchemy Commission come in. They get to the elevator. Aidan noticed they were armed part of one of their emergency response forces. The men head to the sixth floor.

Veil is able to join in the giving of magic power. The group feels the room fill up with double the magic.
Aidan03/01/2020
Aidan follows the officers, and changes into BDU's along the way. Knowing his luck, this would be his people.
atsumari03/01/2020
The group arrives on the sixth floor. The AC SPU officers come to the door and start banging on the door of Ryuji's apartment "Special Policing Unit please open the door."
Tuncecine03/01/2020
Ryuji gets up now feeling the vibration of magic "What the hell is going on?" he then answers door
atsumari03/01/2020
The officers ask if they can come in.
Tuncecine03/01/2020
"What do you want?" he asks
Aidan03/01/2020
Hearing the voice of his people, Aidan interrupts. "I'm General Aidan Thornton from Trinity Combined Service. These are my people, what's going on."
atsumari03/01/2020
"We were being sent to investigate the large amount of magic occurring in this area." The SPU officer tells Aidan. Another elevator arrives; Mimi comes over noticing Aidan and the SPU officers. "Huh... I arrived late."
Kim03/01/2020
The noise at the door carried ad pulled Sanya's attention towards there, but she was able to maintain control of the scry. "This will take a long time to complete but... it would be best to not lose control. There are some places we should not gaze into. Things there will look back that we don't want to see us."
Aidan03/01/2020
"My people are involved in a special operation, but I just got here. Mimi, can you help us sort this out?" Aidan said.
atsumari03/01/2020
Mimi nods. The SPU officers look to their boss. Mimi comes in"The magical energy in that room." mimi said pointing to the room Maki, Sanya and the others are in. "Also a bunch of allied IFF signals...." She shrugs.
Aidan03/01/2020
Aidan asks "Mimi can you handle this? This is more you department."
atsumari03/01/2020
She nods. "Yeah; this is what I do." She smiled at him as she took over. "So care to let us in... Or?" mimi asked Ryuji.
Tuncecine03/01/2020
"Sure." he'll side step and open up the door "calmly if you don't mind, My Feng shui was getting set up."
atsumari03/01/2020
Mimi entered the room and knocked on the door in the the other room. "Mimi Sorinson with the SPU; I'm opening the door." Mimi said as she did so not expecting to see Veil.
"Oh... What.... Whats going on in here?" She asked the room but more focusing on Veil.
Veilfloe03/01/2020
veil looks over and sees Mimi and looks down at the ground and back at Mimi and then awkward tells her "Oh.. I can explain.. Mimi.. er.. we're looking for someone?"
atsumari03/01/2020
"... is this about the Senate stuff?" She asked.
Veilfloe03/01/2020
"A Silver haired woman.. " veil confidently repeated from what Maki and Sanya said before
Kim03/01/2020
Sanya replied though she wasn't asked, "The suspect."

Mimi nods "I see. its a follow up investigation guys..." Mimi said turning ot her officers whom nod and leave callling dispatch over VX.
Oscar03/01/2020
"Oh, hi there."
Oscar waves at Mimi.
"We've never met before, have we..?"
He says while making thinking face.
atsumari03/01/2020
Mimi shrugs. "Um..." She heads out of the room to give Aidan the all clear before heading back to her debriefing. Being in charge of an away team sucked; you had to do the debrief)
Kim03/01/2020
"Boku wa majou shoujo desu," Sanya said in awkward Japanese, like that somehow explained anything. She turned her attention back to the mirror. "Broken pieces. Torn souls drifting.."
atsumari03/01/2020
"Hoka no darekaga kono gengo o hanashimasu." Maki said as she resumed casting.
"This whole place is full of magical girls..." Maki said blankly then she just casts her spell again. She has a thought and chants something else in her head.

Veilfloe03/01/2020
(does that help x3)
Kim03/01/2020
(This should be like a locational spotlight on her. Either like staring at her in her bedroom or at the general area where she is in real time)
(Uh, this much power, she's gonna likely notice unless she fails that perception check)
atsumari03/01/2020
The spell shows she is not on this planet but due to the pure magic in this area the energy starts to flow out into space following the gravitational energy of the system.
Tuncecine03/01/2020
Prome the tiny robot thing looks rather full of energy
Oscar03/01/2020
"This is some super magical shit that's going on rn.."
Oscar sighs as he shrugs, then focusing his attention to the girls again.
Kim03/01/2020
"Where are you?" Sanya murmured as she tried to feel out where in the system she was. "It's space... She's no longer on this planet. Can the commission search the rest of the system or only this planet?"
atsumari03/01/2020
Maki stares at her blinking not knowing the answer to that question.
Veilfloe03/01/2020
Veil looks at Sanya and shrugs in pure unknowingness
Oscar03/01/2020
"Umm...Sanya..? I don't think they get it, not that I do either."
Oscar rubs the back of his head, chuckling a bit again.
atsumari03/01/2020
Maki emails Mimi since she said her name.
Mimi replies that the AC would have the resources for that and was actually already working on it.
Maki relays the message.
Kim03/01/2020
"Get what?" Sanya wondered. Her VX blinked a quick definition. "Oh. I am using divining magic to locate the suspect. The footage of her and personal contact makes it easier to see where she is... But she can also push back if she senses us or provide us with false information if this fails. I have never done this with this much power poured into it... It's normally a one person ritual over a period of hours." Her cheeks flushed a light shade of pink as she returned her gaze into the mirror.
Veilfloe03/01/2020
"im a bit of a reservoir of magic.." veil bashfully commented
Kim03/01/2020
"It might not be much but, I was given a home and a purpose. I want to be useful.. This is part of what I can do in this foreign place," Sanya softly explained.
atsumari03/01/2020
"Welcome ot the club." Maki said.
Veilfloe03/01/2020
"I cannot exist without being bound by a human soul.." veil then replied
Tuncecine03/01/2020
Prome settles on the bed where the highest concentration of magic happens one of the plates on its head opens up with forces cracking open with a pop as a new Arm pops out from its side and the old arms changing into legs. it now looks like a toy robot missing an arm. as soon as its done it moves back to ryuji and perches on his shoulder.
atsumari03/01/2020
"Now that we dont have much going on self-care would probably be a good idea... I think your focusing too much on work... Here..." Maki gives Sanya the rest of the box of Pocky she still has with her.
(Final posts as it is getting late for some folks)
Kim03/01/2020
Sanya accepted the box and looked at it uncertain. "Thank you. I don't have much direction. I am drifting but filling the void with knowledge but there is still much I don't understand. I try not to think of home too often."
atsumari03/01/2020
"Hum... Maybe you should talk to one of those social work guys who emailed me; they might have some kind of advice for y ou... They know how to help with adjustment or so they say..." Maki said to Sanya trying to be helpful.

"Specify color of denim and t-shirt." the computer said.
atsumari03/07/2020
"... Well what do you want to tell me.. is more teh question..." Ayano said to Ryuji. Maki followed Gainz.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"I don't mind most questions I'll avoid anything too sensitive" he said in response
"Do you just want me to get out the frequently asked questions I got where I'm from?"
atsumari03/07/2020
Ayano chuckled; She then nods.
Gainz03/07/2020
"Sheeeiiitt....man so precise..." Gainz thought about it some more. "Gimmie a New York Giant's Tee and some blue jeans. LT my spirit animal, I rep him allllll day."
Aidan03/07/2020
The machine whirred and folded neatly were jeans, shirt, and boots.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"I'm growing my hair for a young girl going through Chemo, though I am not sure if thats still a thing here, Yes I'll make you ramen for lunch Maki, and Single but not looking currently."
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory would return to the shuttle with his armor and a backpack with his own set of tools to bring to the field. EVA was neatly secured on his wristpad and VX.
Aidan03/07/2020
Firing up the thrusters, Nik got clearance from the bridge and went out past the atmospheric shields. "With the infrastructure down, my skills will be better put to use as a technician." Nik offered.
atsumari03/07/2020
"I know what Chemo is; I'm actually from like 2 thousand years in the past..." Ayanao said to Ryuji.
Gainz03/07/2020
"Ha ha! Yeah buddy! I'ma be stylin and profilin, and savin people." Gainz grabbed the clothes and snapped his fingers to instantly wear them over his suit. He then noticed Maki. "Yo whats up? You like it? This what we used to wear back in the day."
atsumari03/07/2020
"casual." maki said simply.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"I mean is it still a thing where we are now, I'm more surprised you aren't where I'm from."
atsumari03/07/2020
"Hum... Howso; and what is this place?" Ayano asked Ryuji.
Gainz03/07/2020
"Yeah, it was a simpler time...for the most part. Didnt have all this space travel and intergalactic affairs back then. We were too busy dealing with ourselves for that."
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory sat in his seat. "With our sort of luck, I think we'll be building a whole new power network. If we're really lucky we only need to make several patch works to get the power going again until the regular guys take over," he said to Nik. He is starting to feel this might be a walk through the mud, slow and unpleasant
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"Everything seems so advance here, and where I'm from you occasionally see someone with silver hair My grandfather called them 'Atsikai blessed' never saw anyone in the city with silver hair though."
"Well besides the mak attack herself"
atsumari03/07/2020
(Ayano has silver hair too lol)
Aidan03/07/2020
"Agreed. With the infrastructure from Earth II isn't all settled so running new lines might be easier." Nik offered.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
(Thats what he is saying Maki and Ayano both have silver hair and he is more used to seeing it where he is from.)
atsumari03/07/2020
"You did end up in my earth's future... so to me of course this is more advanced... but I guess for you this is modern day; so its kinda odd seeing spacemen... Atsikai blessed?" Ayano asked.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"Nah for me this is more advanced Prome and I aren't from around here, we don't got space travel yet. As for 'Atsikai blessed' Gramps explained it as having an extraordinary connection with Atsikai like prome here but it is only a myth"
atsumari03/07/2020
"Spirits." Maki said from her seat answering Ayano's next question before she could ask it. "So Atsikai are spirits... How does that work anyway?" Ayano asked and was sent a rather long email explanation from maki
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"I heard from gossip on the ship there is a guy with spirits not like ours on the ship, I wonder what thats about."
atsumari03/07/2020
"Summons; Kirin... They come from another world form what I know about Kirin... At least the Kirin from my side of the river..."
Ayano said in reply.
Aidan03/07/2020
Nik set the shuttle down in the landing area. The Defiants were hot on his tail. Nearby was what was left of the old power plant. Picking up the 500 pound tool kit, Nik sauntered out the door to start setting up.
(Tory, I will leave what kind and state it is in up to you)
Tuncecine03/07/2020
"sounds kind interesting I wonder if I could ever use that."
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory looked inside and sighed. It was in shambles as the walls were crumbled, the transformers had fallen over and in pieces. The generators were thankfully somewhat intact with only building debris covering the generators. There were broken power lines throughout the plant. "EVA, do a complete building scan and evaluate the damage conditions," he said to EVA. He then turned to Nik. "Well then, we'll see if there's good news. For now the bad news is they're probably gonna want to build a new power plant after this is over," he said to Nik. A short moment later EVA gave him the results.
atsumari03/07/2020
Maki casts soothing magic on the area around them attempting to soothe the population..
Tory Trace03/07/2020
It's not as doomed as he thought. "WE can probably piece the transformers and the power lines in a patch work with what we have. EVA has indicated what we need to put back together to get the minimal power back. We just need some people to clear the debris from the generators and we'll handle the electrical work," he said as he pointed out which parts of the transformers and electrical lines they need to reconnect and put back together to get some power out for rescue crews to use
Aidan03/07/2020
Niklas waded into the power plant, picking up debris and carrying it back out. Carmela was unpacking the tools. "One of the advantages of being a machine. I can lift quit a bit." Nik said grinning.
Gainz03/07/2020
Gainz teleports himself down and appears on the ground shortly after the shuttle lands. He has the hood of his hoodie over his head to cover most of his odd hair and surveys the chaotic aftermath of the earthquake. Hes reminded of the aftermath of the take over of Japan, how similar the city looked afterwards with destruction everywhere.
Aidan03/07/2020
"I also packed a few antigravs pads, just in case." Nik offered. In a short time, there was enough space for Tory to start working with a small pile of large debris to one side.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
Ryuji will look for where to help but right now it seems like lifting rocks was the way to go
Tory Trace03/07/2020
He chuckled at that. "It certainly had its advantages. I'll work on some of the electric lines," he said as he waited for the antigrav pads to be in position to take care of the debris before he began to microweld the broken lines. "See if you can piece together Transformers 3-5. Those are the bare minimum we need to get some power running outside," he said to Nik.
atsumari03/07/2020
Ayano joins Ryuji even if she wasn't that strong with the level 1 armor giving her a boost she could do it.
Aidan03/07/2020
(with two antigravs and power armor they could lift a ton or close to two)
Tory Trace03/07/2020
[antigrav pads are like the push cart in futurama?]
Aidan03/07/2020
there are those and the pads like were used to get rid of Noman in TOS

A crowd starts gathering to watch the growing group of fleet members working on things.
The feeling is generally positive. The field hospital is nearly up and people start arriving in various stages of shock, dirt, and medical needs.
Ayasha starts a triage in a nearby field, prepping the worse cases to go first.
(This seems to be flagging. Pause?)
Gainz03/07/2020
(flagging?)
Aidan03/07/2020
(dying?)
Gainz03/07/2020
(i dunno, who else is here? lol)
Tuncecine03/07/2020
(I am but for now its just lifting rocks haha)
Tory Trace03/07/2020
[I would imagine it would take longer in rp time to fix the power plant]
Tuncecine03/07/2020
(its minimal power now but repairing it more should still take time)
Aidan03/07/2020
(people are also showing up for medical care.)
Tory Trace03/07/2020
[that's what I mean. Tory and Nik would take a bit longer to restore minimal power unless we skip to night time?]
Gainz03/07/2020
(I mean gainz is the potential of heavy machinery. Hes probably looking for somebody trapped under rubble)
Aidan03/07/2020
(agreed the power plant will take time)
Nik offered. "I will keeping clearing the rubble. Why not get the Defiants fusion generators online to start getting things running?"
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory was moving along to the next break of the line. "WE still need to get these lines patched up before we can plug the fusion generators in. But you're right. Get the generators ready to be plugged in when we finish repairing the lines," he said to Nik as he repaired this break.
Gainz03/07/2020
Gainz walked through the destruction and eventually came across some people who looked desperate trying to lift remnants of building debris out of the way. It seemed one of their family members were trapped underneath, crying out for help. "Yo, you need some help? Yo I got chu, stand back." The people then looked shocked and surprised as this short man proceeded to effortlessly moved what had to be a ton of a piece of building out of the way. "Hey you good? Can you reach up? Take my hand!"
Aidan03/07/2020
The frail older gentle reached out, thankful to be rescued but also a bit scared of the unsual being in front of him. Bleeding from his side, he clutched it as Gainz helped him up.
Soon others pitched in, the gathering storm of people helping one another as they had learned from the great exodus. Several personally owned air cars arrived with more medical personnel. Ayasha did a double take. "Mom?!"
Gainz03/07/2020
Gainz carefully picked the elderly man up and set him down so his family could tend to him. "You be safe okay?" Gainz said with a smile and then started to walk off to search for others. The people seemed extremely thankfull and wanted to know his name but Gainz simply replied "It's not important." as he faded into the distance.
atsumari03/07/2020
(I’ll be around for one on ones in a bit )
Aidan03/07/2020
Aidan had seen Carol and wandered over. "It's good to see you. Wish it were under better circumstances." Carol nodded. "We will have to time to chitchat later. Thanks for this though." She said and moved to help the injured."
Within an hour, the former city was abuzz in helpers. The mobile hospital was taking much of the wounded with a nearby regular hospital has finally gotten power back on from backup generators. Turning to Tory, Nik looked over the furious work they had done. "What do you think? I believe we have the breakers off for the still downed sections but we should finish the connection to the fusion generators."
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory had finished patching up the last of the required lines and came down. EVA gave the green light for him on his wristpad. "Alright, lets get these fusion generators plugged in. I'm starving," he said as he had been working for a long while. He pulled out the connection cables and handed some to Nik to plug them into the electric grid. "Let there be light," Tory said as he plugged in the last set with Nik before signalling him to close the circuit connections to the fusion generators
Aidan03/07/2020
Lights winking on. The normal background hum of air conditioning units and lights nearby were in evidence. Nik offered his hand to Tory. "Good work."
Carmela even flapped her wings in excitement as she shrieked. Nik gave her a chastising look.
Tory Trace03/07/2020
Tory shook his hand in turn. "With pleasure," he said. Some sparks came out in the repaired lines but it held. Some street lights turned on, other flickered and others remained off. Such was the extent of the damage. "Lets hope the generators have enough energy to keep things going until w get the main generators up and running," he said to Nik.
Tuncecine03/07/2020
(I gotta pass out)
Aidan03/07/2020
"Agreed. Go get some chow while I figure out part two to this. You've earned it." Nik said.

aqace10003/18/2020
scott looks up an sees the broadcast and starts listening in deciding if he should call ceci to head down with him to it
Gainz03/18/2020
"I mean...it did explode, but shit I dunno. Battle was crazy, there was a ton of shit popping off. Something blasted the both of us and I felt like my very entity was trying to be ripped apart." Gainz said.
(i can edit it and make it pretty later lol)
Aidan03/18/2020
Aidan straightened up. "Yes Sir. The phoenix or remnants of are very much still a threat. We fought them on Orteria as well as seeing the aftermath of them meeting the Senate. Our investigation is ongoing."
atsumari03/18/2020
One of the officials on the other feed from the government office chimes in. "According to your survey following the battle it appears the Phoenix was destroyed however noting your own developments with the revival of Flennel Lanreth I would pose that the Phoenix may not be entirely destroyed."
(he is responding to both Aidan and Nicol)
(The government and military finally agree on something its a miracle lol)
Gainz03/18/2020
"I see. Remnants... We will need to strengthen our defensive capabilities... We will double our efforts to strengthen our rectification force and launch more capital ships to patrol the Sol system. Gainz, a new mission will be uploaded to your scouter shortly after I speak to the Master AI. If this Phoenix is as strong and as corrupted as Gainz has told me to be, it is a threat to Earth and many more worlds and it cannot be tolerated to exist." Nicol stated. Gainz nodded at Nicol.
Aidan03/18/2020
Aidan wanted to blast Nicols and mention perhaps the Senate trying to conjure an enemy wasn't a great idea to begin with, but he didn't.
atsumari03/18/2020
The official then says. "We will sending a civilian expeditionary force with Fleet escort back to earth to repopulate and will beginning transit and cargo services to earth shortly thereafter. The President's Office and we in the Emergency Services Division believe our focuses should indeed be on whatever is left of this cult to stop it from reviving the Phoenix once and for all and finding the woman who attacked the senate; dealing with both is imperative and should be the focus of Trinity's operations moving forward."
"that is General unless you believe there are elements within the Senate that are still of problem?"
Aidan03/18/2020
Aidan bumped Ari and verbally said in a whisper. "Told ya."
"They are still an ongoing problem, but there have been no leads and nothing to tie these elements to Earth II since the ones responsible seem to have been killed." Aidan replied.
atsumari03/18/2020
"Since your current orders are what we already said I see no reason in changing your stance or what you are doing; you know what needs to be done it seems..." he said to Aidan then turned back to Nicol "Dr. Bolas do you believe that current defenses are enough for us to send forces back to Earth with just Fleet escorts?"
Maki started playing pong on her VX.
Gainz03/18/2020
Gainz cracked his knuckles as he stood up from leaning against the wall. "Damn straight. I'm stronger than before. But if that thing comes back...what if he is too?" Gainz asked. "Get stronger, you'll find the way. You were made for that. Lily and the Requiem will assist Trinity operations in any task that is required. And yes, our current defenses should be adequate for that task." Nicol stated
Inori Yuzuriha03/18/2020
"If I may, the Murasashi might be better suited as the basis of the ships were initially long distance colony ships. Alongside the transports, the Murasashi will be able to carry substantial amount of troops, equipment and supplies while providing escort." Dawn interjects.
Aidan03/18/2020
Aidan longed to see Earth again. Though it was bittersweet with his parents were there during the bug invasion and never survived.
Gainz03/18/2020
"We have capital ships that are similar to the Requiem's design that should provide adequate escort and defense. However I'll admit we have few ships designed to actually cater for a large amount of live passengers. But if needed, that can be arranged if within a few days." Nicol says.
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari tilted her head. "So um Minster; Doctor Bolas; seeing as my crew, staff and Trinity have our mission it seems as though the rest of this conversation is more of a government and minister conversation... I suggest we be allowed to discuss those who are not as involved with said affairs?" She asked.
Gainz03/18/2020
"That is acceptable." Nicol said nodding. Gainz made a gesture as if wondering if he should stay or go.
Tory Trace03/18/2020
Tory also looked to see if he too should be dismissed or remain to continue listening in
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari looked to Aidan to dismissed. the Minister nodded to dismiss and closed off most of the feeds.
Aidan03/18/2020
"Unless there are any questions, dismissed." Aidan parrotted
Gainz03/18/2020
"Gainz you may go, if anything your scouter will be updated with anything you need." Nicol said. "Aight, deuces." Gainz said as pat his chest before heading out.
Tory Trace03/18/2020
Tory nodded as he stood up. "I'll be getting some rest first before going back out in the field," Tory said as he shuddered at the nightmare of work that still layout in the semi ruins of the city
atsumari03/18/2020
Maki got up turning off her pong game and leaving unsure of where to take herself now though. Ayano left returning to the Lavie for some R&R herself.
Aidan03/18/2020
Ayasha left with the rest of team one. Aidan walked over and poured himself a cup of coffee.
atsumari03/18/2020
Maki went to find Ryuji locating him near a cooking stall that was set up to give soldiers and civilians food in the broken down city.
Tuncecine03/18/2020
Ryuji is busy cooking and coming up with nourishing and well portioned meals that can feed everyone.
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari came over to Aidan "So how was the work going on the surface with the recovery of the area affected by the Earthquake; would you wanna go back down to see how its going?"
Inori Yuzuriha03/18/2020
Dawn nods to Ari and Aidan and leaves the room to go assist with the cooks and the distribution of food.
atsumari03/18/2020
Maki glances at Ryuji as he prepares food tilting her head as a small child is being fed by their mother at benches near the stall.
Aidan03/18/2020
"Sure, we should be doing the final hand-offs to the civilian authorities." Aidan offered to Ari
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari has Trent beam them down to the surface near where the food is; actually close to Maki and Ryuji.
Maki comes into the small stall and starts to help Ryuji without even saying anything
Gainz03/18/2020
As Gainz walks off down the hall his scouter buzzes in his pocket. He takes it out and puts it on and keeps walking down the hall as hes given his task privately.

Tory also came over to the cooking stall. He saw Maki and Ryuji at the food stall and quite busy. "Hey there. Gota moment for a bowl of noodles for me?" he said to Ryuji
Tuncecine03/18/2020
He passes the man some rice and beef stew "now there are others waiting for food."
Inori Yuzuriha03/18/2020
Dawn arrives at the stall arrives carrying 2 large bakers trays of bread. "Here, these might help."
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari looks over the scene; pwoer was back on, there was still a lot of damage but peoplw were safe and being fed. The first aide stations were up and three of six food stalls were up in a set of baskball courts attached to a park. The park had temporary benches set up throughout with tables and lighting.
There were thousands of people getting aide from these facilities but as civilian emergency management got more stations up the ones the military were proiding would be able ot be handed off.
Aidan03/18/2020
"Reminds me a bit of Earth." Aidan said to Ari. "Plus people are actually pulling together. A good sign."
atsumari03/18/2020
"And people are working together... Good..." ari walked over to someone at an Aid station and healed them with her blue gem. She then came back over. "We should be able to hand all this off and get back to having another day or two of leave; if they give us that... Though like you said from the sound of it missions will happen. I think this looks too much like skynet's broken up japan when I was covering the battle there... except with less death robots." Ari said to Aidan.
"Less death robots is always good." Maki said as she served more food.
Gainz03/18/2020
(haha i brb'd in the wrong place lol)
Aidan03/18/2020
"What's on your agenda Miss Thing? Should we pitch in and serve or perhaps sneak away for us?" Aidan asked.
atsumari03/18/2020
"Sneaking away can wait until work is done... as for work... Food seems to already be handled..." Ari said pointing to the Aid station as a shuttle lands and some people from what is equal to the red cross come out and head to the aid station. "... Or we can just stand here and supervise...

Ari glances as they walk over. One of them simply nods as if saying you can do even though I really don't want ot be here either.
Aidan03/18/2020
Aidan had one of his personal containers beamed down. Inside the 1.5 meter hexagon was a triple bloom Tropicana rose bush. Taking out tools, he separated it into three plants and planted them near an open empty area.
Inori Yuzuriha03/18/2020
Dawn ignores the volunteer and continues doing what she was doing as she goes about.
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari helps Aidan with his bueatification.
Maki gives a volunteer unmade bread to bake as she returns to serving.
As a few thousand people pass through first aide, food and the beatified area the emergency management official says to Aidan and Ari. "Are you sure your unit is a special tactics team; I think you missed your calling in humanitarian aide." "At least we are not being shot at..." Ari quipped.
Tory Trace03/18/2020
Tory was quite satisfied with the beef stew and rice and went to the rest tent where he would take a nap
Aidan03/18/2020
"This is a hobby. My mother loved these roses. I thought it was a nice gesture and they seem to like it here." Aidan offered, wiped his hand on a rag to clean up.
atsumari03/18/2020
The people finally finish with food distribution and are now taken into large tents where beds have been made by volunteers that were grateful for Ari, Aidan, Maki, Ryuji and Dawn for providing the mas of displaced folks a distraction. This allowed the others to focus on getting other things prepared. Once everyone was situated the three volunteers from before come back to help clean. The emergency management official nods to Aidan and says. "Well obviously me and my staff can take it form here whenever you guys want to head out." He then heads off inspecting the area.
Gainz03/18/2020
(sorry guys ima have to brb again i lost something and need to find it)
Aidan03/18/2020
"Glad to be able to give back and do something nice for change." Aidan replied. He looked over to Ari. "We should go before they decide the park needs more plants."
atsumari03/18/2020
Ari nods and they head back to the ship.
Maki and the volunteers finish the cleaning and teardown. She looked at Ryuji.
Tuncecine03/18/2020
Ryuji pats her head "lets go get some microwave food or something"
Inori Yuzuriha03/18/2020
Dawn gives both Maki and Ryuji some bread. "This'll hold you until we get back."
atsumari03/18/2020
Maki takes the bread munching it heading back to their shuttle wondering to herself why the higher ranks get to use the teleporter and they have to use shuttles. She wonders if they could just go back to that nice apartment. She liked that apartment.
Tuncecine03/18/2020
Ryuji gets on the shuttle having devoured the bread like he was drinking water
Tory Trace03/18/2020
"Alert, wake up Tory Trace. It is time to return to the ship," EVA said in Tory's VX. It woke him up and he stretched, taking his things along with him to head on to the shuttle.
atsumari03/18/2020
Maki notices Tory come in and simply says "you don't like work..." She trails off in disinterest as she returns to her game of pong.

Ari was now in her office after finishing things up on Earth II. Most of the crew should be returning by this point and the group would be ready to leave on a mission again. At least this one was less shoot first and ask questions later than usual. They were searching for someone now. It would be pretty low key compared to their usual missions. It was the 25th now; she wished that she could stay for her upcoming birthday but alas duty called. She would not be a very good commander if she didn't do her duty even if she didn't want to.

Meanwhile knowing that they would be leaving soon Ayano had the flight deck personnel secure all the mechs and flight gear.

All the while Maki was also on the flight deck but staring out of the bay at the planet in front of her. it looked so small in comparison to when she was on it. The emotionally inept girl just observed the planet from space marveling at it.
comicfan8603/29/2020
Desiree's shuttle arrived in the flight deck, she had been watching it from one of the viewports as the shuttle made its approach. She had just graduated from the Military Academy, and was looking forward to seeing how life was going to be on the Lavie.
atsumari03/29/2020
As the shuttle landed one of the flight officers secured the shuttle and the pilot opened the shuttle door stepping out.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
A giant of a man entered the flight deck as he stretched a bit looking around for someone he could talk to, he need to report his invention and he didn't know what had happened while he was in his creation isolation so he needed to ask for info
comicfan8603/29/2020
Desiree grabbed her things, and as soon as she was able, she stepped out of the shuttle. She saw a few of the mechs, and considered the idea that maybe she made a mistake in not becoming a pilot. She made her way over to Maki who seemed to not be doing much in the flight deck, and tapped her on the shoulder. "You wouldn't by chance know the quickest route to the bridge would you?" she asked with a French accent.
atsumari03/29/2020
"Oh..." Maki turned to her. She nodded without speaking and started to lead the way without any other visible reaction.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
Owain continues to scan the military personal to find both the least busy and the highest ranked person he could talk to, and he guesses Ayano since she was ordering people around he walked up to her and spoke "Excuse me miss, hopefully I haven't caught command at a bad time but I recently made some new toys for the boys as it was and hoping you would know where the commander is and what has happened in the past few months."
comicfan8603/29/2020
Desiree followed Maki, keeping pace with her. She thought she'd just get directions, but wasn't going to say no to an escort. "My name's Desiree Allard, what's yours?" She asked introducing herself.
atsumari03/29/2020
Ayano look at Owain; him assuming he was command personnel. She smiled. "You think I'm in charge... I just pilot death robots for this poor place... As for where the Admiral and General are... I assume; if they are on the ship they would be in their office or at the bridge." Ayano shrugs then asks Lumi. "Computer where is Rear Admiral Ari Mizriki?" "She is currently in her office." The system explains. Maki had arrived at a lift by the time she responded to Desiree. "Makigisa Tahoshi." Her response was blank and lacking emotion.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
Owain very much in civilian clothes smiles "Thank you miss when I asked the computer said something about clearance." he will then walk towards Ari mizriki's office which he should know unless the ship somehow changed interior designs
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Pleasure to meet you," Desiree replied and offered her hand and smiled at Maki as she was lead to the lift. As soon as the lift doors opened, she stepped inside. "I hope I haven't interrupted you on anything important."
atsumari03/29/2020
Owain caught the lift that Desiree and Maki was on. As Desiree seemed worried about interupting something Maki was doing she shook her head no. "The stars will always be there." She replied blankly. Maki looked at Owain. he seemed too happy; or enthralled about whatever he was doing. She wondered why he was so joyous. Better yet who was he...
"Deck 2." Maki told the lift almost forgetting to tell it where she wanted to go.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
Owain waved to the two of them "I am also going to deck two, my name is owain a pleasure to meet you two."
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Desiree," Desiree replied introducing herself to Owain with a friendly smirk, "I'm the new Security Officer."
atsumari03/29/2020
"Owain... What do you do?" Maki asked.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"I invent things, mostly, an engineer and inventor I believe the ship is still running on an engine I helped build."
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Really?" Desiree asked curiously looking at Owain with her cybernetic eyes. She was impressed that someone who built parts of the ship being among the crew.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"Yeah the alchemy commission set me up here to help if the engine breaks and to keep me safe while I make more things."
atsumari03/29/2020
"Oh; you work for that place too like Mimi Sorinson; so you are part of the magic police here... But its science division." Owain doing stuff with magic instantly interested Maki.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"haha, I have to get tell the commander my new invention, if you are lucky you two might be the ones to test them out." he laughed heartily
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Oh?" Desiree spoke after hearing Owain laugh heartily. The idea of testing a new invention peaked her curiosity, as did Maki mentioning Magic Police. "What is your new invention?"
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"hopefully if I can get them to function for the everyman, magic guns."
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Well I'll definitely be volunteering to test that."
atsumari03/29/2020
The lift arrives on deck 2. Maki leads the way to a door close to the lift pressing the call button; she was getting better at understanding this place. "Enter." Ari said. Maki walked in leading the other two. "Magic research has been completed." Maki said to her apparent new commander since she and Ryuji wouldn't be home for awhile.
"Also a new recruit has arrived." Maki said to her saluting. Ari waves away the salute.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"Well more like one of my ideas while I work on my main project but if it goes well it would be easier access to a magic corp amoung other things."
comicfan8603/29/2020
Desiree followed Maki all the way to the Captain's Office. Upon entering the office, she stood at full attention. She saluted along with Maki, and dropped it after Ari waved away. "Ensign Desiree Allard reporting for duty," She spoke
atsumari03/29/2020
Ari nodded. Ensign Allard; I was informed you would be joining us. You are a replacement for the fact that Seleni is on maternity leave and so we needed another body to handle team ones security detail. In short You'll be working security for our tactical unit." She then looks to Owain. "Wasn't I still the chief of security when you last came up for air... How do you actually survive in your lab?"
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"I have a replicator in there, an industrial one, and about a thousand cup noodles." owain replied
"I actually came out because I need to restock my gems if we are at a place where they can be acquired"
comicfan8603/29/2020
"Aye Ma'am," Desiree replied as Ari spoke of her assignment on the ship. She figured she'd be given a new task once Seleni was back on full duty.
atsumari03/29/2020
"Oh; I can contact AC command... We are over Earth II right now. hence the new girl." Ari said to Owain. "If you need bodies for your research these two don't any assignment until we get to our mission location; so feel free to use the girls; hell with gems I'd even be interested in seeing what this does." Ari said.
comicfan8603/29/2020
Desiree just eyed at Maki as Ari basically volunteered them for whatever research Owain happened to be doing. She figured if Maki wasn't concerned that meant she had little to worry about.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"We should also get someone who is good at firing guns and using gems." he says as he clicks a button to set up a holodeck in advance
atsumari03/29/2020
"Are you saying I can't shoot?" Ari asked Owain curtly.
"I'm not as incompetent as the guy who recruited me..."
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"I didn't say that at all but extra hands are always welcome." owain replied again laughing
comicfan8603/29/2020
"I don't know how to handle gems, but I am a fast learner," Desiree spoke up, "And I had the top scores on the firing range for my class."
atsumari03/29/2020
"Gems..." Maki nodded. Veil explained to her about that while she told veil about magic in general and how spirits and Atsikai worked... They were all based off of the same types of energy. it shouldn't be that hard for her to learn. Maki simply nodded. "Then I guess we should set upa time to work on this together." Ari posed to Owain.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
"If all goes well they won't need gem training on one of them with which would be better for diversifying our soldiers who have a hard time with gems."
atsumari03/29/2020
"They would still need a base understanding though... I mean; all gems require some type of mental concentration and understanding to use them; I couldn't hand a toddler a gem and say heal someone...." Ari replied.
Tuncecine03/29/2020
(I need to pass out irl haha)
atsumari03/29/2020
(thats fine we can end here)
keving03/29/2020
as the holodeck is being raised/being transfered to a new location kirin is learning to control the gravity around him to be lighter in the room
atsumari03/29/2020
After that Ari set up a time to chat more about this and have the other two meet up with him. She then had Zoe issue Dezy a room.

The New Universes Project: Eine Neue Reise Beginnt

Season 3 - Episode 1: Discovery and Reflection

November 27th 4566 Early Morning

Narrated by Makigisa "Maki" Tahoshi

We are about to leave on one of the smaller ships that is attached to the Lavie heading out on the mission that was requested by The Unified Council through command. I wonder what we will find in those far away stars… Will this mission be simple or were we split up from the rest of the crew for a reason… Something sinister… Who knows…

<START SIM>
Ayano had her gear stowed in her quarters as did Maki; Maki really didn't have much to speak of anyway since everything she owned now was in her bag already. Maki went to explore the small ship as she did not have a duty station as of yet; she and Ryuji were only recently commissioned into Trinity as provisional officers thanks to Ari. They would be assigned to team one as the groups primary sniper team. That meant on the ship she more or less was just on standby. Meanwhile Ayano had arrived on the little Defiant ship's bridge; she was assigned as the ship's Executive Officer; for a small ship like this having a Lieutenant as an XO was not unheard of. She was in thought about how of thier mottly crew would be in charge of what division though and who would best be useful in what department. Maybe she should ask each of those whom would be on the mission and then consult with Aidan on it. This was new to her.
(So; who is here... )
Aidan04/12/2020
Aidan had stashed Brutus, but made sure he was always wearing level one basic skinsuit. If he couldn't get to Brutus or vice versa, the nanotech version he carried with him would have to suffice. It would be a bit different not to have oodles of support pouring out of every side. He was used to it that way, being a Marine, but lately it wasn't normal. He stored the rest of his gear and headed towards the bridge. He'd have to make sure everyone was doing their jobs.
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
William Reed Shert:

William wakes up with a yawn. He had fallen asleep within minutes of arriving in his quarters.
“I arrived on the Lavie for maybe five minutes, before joining this crew on this much smaller ship. Well it might be less Engineering work for me.” He very slowly strolls out of his quarters to explore the ship on the way to his post.
atsumari04/12/2020
(Charlie your new guy would be assigned to engineering on this shop so Tory can be on the bridge overseeing engineering and ops)
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
(Yea I guessed that.)
Tory Trace04/12/2020
Tory Trace stowed his gear on his bunk and had EVA sync up with this ship's systems. He needed to report to the bridge soon so he can get familiar with the ship at his station on the bridge. Tory stepped out into the corridoor to head off to the bridge
keving04/12/2020
kirin stretches in cabin starts to do some morning excersises to wake up before exploring the new smaller ship and who may be on board
atsumari04/12/2020
With the limited number of bridge qualified personnel on the ship Ayano would likely be flying the ship though the issue would still be assigning someone to tactical; The person they had with the most tactical and security experience currently not delegated to other mission preparatory tasks was kirin; she had him sent a duty roster report of his new assignment.
Tory Trace04/12/2020
Tory arrived on the bridge and found the engineering station. He saw Ayano there and smiled at her. "Getting a feel for the ship, madam?" he said to Ayano as he took his station and accessed his console. EVA linked up and began displaying some basic windows for him to view
atsumari04/12/2020
"More like; a feel for command... some ot think of it I think we only have two qualified pilots onboard meaning in addition to my leading I am also probably our primary pilot." She said shurgging.
keving04/12/2020
kirin looks at the message he got from ayano and the criteria of the situation that could happen
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
(My guy is qualified as a pilot but transferred to engineering so probably the very last choice.)
atsumari04/12/2020
(Ayano wouldnt know that)
(as he is so new)
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
(ah righto)
atsumari04/12/2020
(YOu need to report t the bridge is what that means Kev)
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
William reaches engineering and pauses outside. He thinks for a moment. "Right, time to actually work... Time for this new life to begin." William sighs as he gets to work.
keving04/12/2020
kirin starts his approch toward the bridge area to report to the commander
Aidan04/12/2020
By then Aidan was squared away, quarters wise. Stepping onto the bridge, he saw everyone stiffen. "As you were."
He soon realized this was a mistake. He needed to allow Ayano the time to acclimate. Walking up to her, he offered. I'll be in my closet, I mean ready room, if you need anything." In a more normal voice, Aidan said, "You have the bridge, Number One."
comicfan8604/12/2020
Dezy stepped out of her quarters after she finished her pre-shift routine. She did a few last minute adjustments to her uniform, making sure she was presentable as she approached the lift. She checked her sidearm to make sure it was properly loaded as the lift doors opened for her. "First shift, probably be assigned to watch the brig." She spoke to herself as she stepped inside.
atsumari04/12/2020
(She would be assigned to the new ship as well; yeah she would be in security)
comicfan8604/12/2020
(Great, she arrived on her first ship only to be sent to another)
atsumari04/12/2020
As Aidan left Ayano nodded. Shen then looked over to Kirin as he got ot the security and tactical station. "Check your departments status everyone." She said to the two others in the room; the bridge was suprisingly small and surprisingly empty; for a small ship though most processes would be automated by now.
(its an attached ship; basically shes being sent with a small team handling the teams security)
(Well guys; call your departments and get a status @Tory Trace and @keving ; welcome to being department heads of departments of three lol)
keving04/12/2020
kirin looks around for a way to check for the status of security by looking thru camaras and files if anything is out of the ordinary
atsumari04/12/2020
(use the coms; call to the security office; you have an officer there)
keving04/12/2020
kirin to security team/office? report in
comicfan8604/12/2020
=A=Ensign Allard here,=A= Dezy replied as the turbolift arrived at her stop, and she started wandering the corridors, =A=On my way to my duty station.=A=
keving04/12/2020
"roger report in anything that is might of been out of place and we will take care of it Allard" kirin replied
comicfan8604/12/2020
=A=Will do=A= Dezy replied.
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
William stares into space before thinking out loud. "I actually found nothing wrong. This ship is in incredible condition." He starts to pace the room. "At least in here I won't get shot at. But the boredom!"
He stops to check his terminal. Nothing has changed. He goes back to pacing.
Aidan04/12/2020
(careful what you wish for Rock)
comicfan8604/12/2020
Dezy made here way to the new ship, and started making her way to the Armoury.
atsumari04/12/2020
Once the reports of all clear were given from engineering and security Ayano contacted medical and Natsumi responded. "Sickbay is all prepared here." Ayano then checks to make sure all hands are accounted for she then messages Aidan in the ready room that all hands are aboard and all gear is aboard; they were ready to depart whenever ordered to do so.
Aidan04/12/2020
Walking out the short distance to the bridge, Aidan stood at the back of the bridge so he was out of the way. "Take her out Lieutenant. At your discrection."
atsumari04/12/2020
Ayano nodded. "yes sir." She signals flight control that they are ready to depart. The docking bay detaches from the ship. Air lock reads all clear. Flight ops then grants them permission to depart. Ayano aims the ship in the direction of where their course is set and engages the ships drive.
Tory Trace04/12/2020
Tory turned to Ayano, waiting for the command to send orders to engineering to begin taking the ship out for her next mission
atsumari04/12/2020
(Ayano is also the pilot engineering doesnt fly the ship)
The ship was now traveling to its destination.
(ti would take awhile to get their though; the rim was quite a distance away especially with no city ship to just poof you there.
(Alrighty; so my main thing today was getting the ship undocked and on its way; one on ones will be able to continue but yay we are on our way out woohoo)
(final posts before I end?)
Rockyeahh04/12/2020
William feels his stomach move around a bit. He thinks to himself. "This won't end well."
comicfan8604/12/2020
In the armoury, Dezy took stock of the equipment there, making sure whatever her team might need was there with plenty of ammunition.

Repulse was now heading towards its destination which would be a few weeks out given that the planet on the Rim was so far out. Ayano was still on the bridge as Maki had pulled out some headphones and was listening to music from her world was she just waited in the mess hall. She had spent some time with Desiree and apparently made a new friend. Maybe this place was more inviting to her than she initially assumed it would be. Pausing on this thought she stared out the window at the stars just watching them fly by at an almost impossible rate of view due to them moving so fast; she didn't care though.
(me and names = trash-factor 12)
aqace10004/17/2020
(im here)
Aidan04/17/2020
Ayasha padded into the Mess hall. Sweat from her workout was still evaporating off of parts of her skin. She had a towel around her neck, white vee cut t-shirt and long cotton shorts. "A liter of cold water, and two dragon rolls with extra wasabi."
atsumari04/17/2020
(but will the super doctor extraordinaire be joining us Mr. Scotts)
aqace10004/17/2020
(is he drunk or crazy....i think he has coffe)
atsumari04/17/2020
Maki noticed Ayasha remembering her from the mission as well as medial and brief encounters she had with the woman prior. They were similar in age. Maki tilted her head observing Ayasha as she went about her food gathering and such things. "Your perspiring..." Maki said almost being too analytical as if like an android; her poor people skills or lack thereof. Her response showed little to no emotional reaction to her presence. The stars were flying by too fast to be observed properly so she had to give herself something to do.
(Scott if he wre on this ship would probably have to make another coffee machine or something; this weeks of travel would be far tooo boring; until something happens)
( @aqace100 )
Jack Pine04/17/2020
(Family stuff right now, and I need to catch up on everything still.)
Aidan04/17/2020
With her plate and drink in hand, she sat near Maki. "I was shown how to turn my power armor suit into a full body workout. I may have sore muscles tomorrow but prefer to be in top form. Guess I get that from dad." Ayasha said.
keving04/17/2020
(is this the ship that got set from the lavie as the small team?)
atsumari04/17/2020
(yes Kev)
aqace10004/17/2020
Scott decides to have a coffee-maker made and have him and ceci take it to the cafeteria to spread the joys of coffee
atsumari04/17/2020
"being in top performance for a day of drills... optimum efficiency can be obtained without wrecking yourself... But oh well... Busting your ass into the ground only works for so long; or so my father told me." Maki said shrugging as if she didn't care about work outs much. She was raised to be support and a magic user so she found how she did things as normal and other people doing things as odd. Then again Ryuji and her ideas of training was a light work out to keep themselves fit enough to not die then meditate for days; most of his meditation was in memory of those who died; for her it was building up Mega's power.
Aidan04/17/2020
"I don't kill myself but I like to stay limber and have a amount of muscle tone. Plus the more I can burn calorie wise, I can eat more." She countered
aqace10004/17/2020
(@atsumari ceci response?)
atsumari04/17/2020
(sorry answering questions in DMs)
The little girl AI takes the machine originally made for Koto and takes it to the mess. Upon walking in the room Ceci walks over to the table Ayasha and Maki are sitting at just placing the coffee machine of the ages on the table. "Daddy offers a gift of caffeine and pain..." She said happily. Maki stares at the little android girl controlled by a master AI curiously.
keving04/17/2020
kirin doing patrol around the ships inside to get a good knowing of the lay out
atsumari04/17/2020
"Caffeine... and pain... what?" Maki asked.
"it keeps you up for months!"
Aidan04/17/2020
"No, that amount of caffeine will kill you." Ayasha said in a matter of fact manner.
aqace10004/17/2020
Scott says "i have tested it and i will vouch for it"
atsumari04/17/2020
"People only ended up in medical twice using it according to my records..." Ceci said. Maki casts detect magic on Ceci and finds even more reason to be confused by the little android.
(didnt charlies character almost die lol)
aqace10004/17/2020
(maybe?)
Aidan04/17/2020
'Considering that it's a beverage, that is two times too many. There are far more effect ways of staying awake." Ayasha commented.
atsumari04/17/2020
"So... what is she?" Maki asked confused by Ceci.
Aidan04/17/2020
"A drug pusher?" She replied
atsumari04/17/2020
"A magical drug dealer... this space place just gets more confusing..." Maki said staring at Ceci.
aqace10004/17/2020
Scott chuckles and says "well technically caffine can be considered a drug"
atsumari04/17/2020
"..." Maki stares at Ceci some more. The girl stares back at her walking closer and closer until they are right next to each other staring into each others eyes.
Aidan04/17/2020
"First to blink loses" Ayasha quipped
comicfan8604/17/2020
Dezy conducted her patrols along the ship.
atsumari04/17/2020
Maki and Ceci stare at each other.
Aidan04/17/2020
Aidan walked in, retrieving a large mug of coffee from the food slot. As he turned sipping the liquid. He looked around wondering just what he was witnessing.
atsumari04/17/2020
Ceci climbs onto Maki's lap still staring into her eyes and never looking away. The two are now mere inches from each other.
(Scott had to leave; his phone broke midpost)
(it fell)
Aidan04/17/2020
Finally he decided humor might be better."Should get you two a room, or a referee?" he said.
(That sucks)
Inori Yuzuriha04/17/2020
(well neither of my characters are here so yea rip me)
atsumari04/17/2020
"Why a room...?" Maki asked as Ceci inched closer; the little girl was now millimeters from her face. The child just continues to stare.
"have you heard of boundaries?" Maki asked but giving no visible reaction. Ceci doesn't respond.
Aidan04/17/2020
(she can't respond if scott isn;t here)

Ceci pokes Maki just to get her to stop staring even if it causes her to lose. The poke was more like a jab. Ceci then hugs Maki in a nearly crushing hug. "Ahhh!!! what are you... stop..." Ceci resumes the painful hugging. "Let go of me!"
Aidan04/17/2020
(It's a Defiant more or less, not much room for patrols)
atsumari04/17/2020
Ceci lets go leaving the room to go find something more interesting to do. Maki is jsut still standing there confused. "Little brat... what purpose did that serve?" She asked for the first time seeming ot show negative emotion; she wasn't happy about nearly being crushed by the little AI child.
Aidan04/17/2020
Aidan commented, "Ceci is more superweapon than anything else. Don't let the outer covering deceive you. That is not some small child."
atsumari04/17/2020
"What is she?" Maki asked Aidan figuring she would get an actual answer from him as nobody else seemed to be willing to explain to her what she was.
(ending in 10 minutes)
Aidan04/17/2020
"Android and science experiment. A Superbomb wrapped as a little girl. I honestly don't know. She's never hurt anyone on our side anyway." Aidan added. "You'd really have to ask Scott Johnson."
atsumari04/17/2020
Maki nods. "So the insane scientist... Okay..."

<START SIM>
Ayano was on the bridge. They had been out now for a few days and with the Lavie using a gem drive and them being close to the edge of the core worlds they were far from help; in essence the Repulse would be on its own from here. Her first go at being an XO being a mission out into the depths of the Rim seemed like an odd choice; though maybe that just proved Aidan, Ari, Sumire and those others at the top trusted her. Ayano was told by the newer crewmen at tactical "Sir I'm detecting a Federation slipstream point in front of us." As the man stated this, a cityship appeared; no moreover it was the Onyx. It was all the way out here... Why exactly was that? It should have been at Earth II or Orteria. At that point a comm line was opened and the cityship's administrator simply said on the viewscreen. "Where is the General?" Ayano tilted her head. "General Thornton is off duty right now... What are you guys doing out here anyway?" "I need to speak to the General urgently; its regarding the Princess." "Sumire's sister?" The man nods. Ayano VX's Aidan that he is needed on the bridge urgently.

Aidan

"On my way." It took less than 15 seconds for Aidan for get to the bridge. He had changed en-route into BDU's complete with service pistol. As the lift opened, he wasted no time. "Report."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

The stations administrator said over the view screen. "It was felt that the safest folks to come to about this would be the Lavie but as the ship is in dark mode to search... We have been trying to find you... I guess our luck paid off. We should really speak in private." The man said not knowing who in this room he could trust.

Aidan

"XO. Teleport the man aboard and escort him to my ready room" Aidan offered.

He also VX'ed Ayano to listen in via VX as he would leave the channel open as well as ordering two extra armed Marines to stand by after the man arrived.

Tory Trace

Tory turned to face Ayano at his seat on the bridge at his console. "Our mission can't be that sensitive, can it?" he said when the view screen returned to normal with the administrator being brought over. He can only wonder which part of the senior staff would be allowed to be in the ready room to listen to him.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Ayano nods and heads over to the transporter room. The cityship's administrator was beamed over with Godwhin. The three then head back to meet with Aidan. Upon arrival two marines were there. The man had Godwhin wait outside then he entered. "Xavier Sentori... I am the new civilian administrator of the Onyx; basically the cityships governor. Are there any active coms into this room... The matter I need to discuss with you is extremely sensitive. It involves your family."

Ayano shrugged. as she waited making eye contact with Tory. "This mission may not be sensitive but we have no idea what this man is here for. Hence the additional security." She said to him while keeping a line open with Aidan.

Aidan

Aidan made the effort to isolate the room. He left his VX open. "We're good, Governor. You seem agitated."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Xavier nods. "We were contacted by parties representing the cult. They were quite explicit that we will tell no one. The kidnapped Princess Yuki; in essence proving to us there are still people within the Ortiera government loyal to them. We were unable to contact the Royal Security Service for this reason and made a mission story that were taking the civilian population off on a sort of cruise. As we do not have the location of the Lavie like I explained to your XO we were not able to contact the Queen or the RMA. Not knowing who to trust Lt. Cmdr. Godwhin suggested we locate you."

Aidan

Aidan's skin flushed and started turning red. "I assume they have demands. Unreasonable ones." Aidan asked.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"Surrender and acknowledgement of the faction they control as the rightful rulers of orteria; though we both know that is a meaningless demand; what they want is to be able to complete their revival of the demon."

Aidan

"Doesn't matter. While we shouldn't let them get away with the kidnapping, without knowledge of their whereabouts. It doesn't matter what we do. Can't fight what you can't find. Getting really sick of fighting ghosts and spooks." Aidan said plainly.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"We know they have not left the cityship as station security locked down all incoming and outgoing transportation following report of the kidnapping from the academy. The problem is knowing what this cult is; station security doesn't have the expertise to deal with this."

"The civilian population on the station is not happy about being locked in but what other choice was there... Letting them run..."

Aidan

"let me find just one of them." Aidan said rhetorically. "So what next? How are they getting messages out? VX? There has to be way to find them. My only other alternative at the moment is to evacuate the Onyx to prove how serious this is."

"I can't really start random executions." Aidan added.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"Now you see why I am here... This is something for a tactical and intelligence division. Normal cops and civilian government..." He said crossing his arms.

Aidan

"What I need is Erin. A true born bloodhound." Aidan said.

Aidan

Aidan typed out a few commands to Tory. "I will start an investigation with what we can here. I will also coordinate with Johnson on the Onyx. He can do some checking around at least."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"Anyone else you want to bring in on this" The governor asked.

Tory Trace

Tory read the command and can see that he needs his services. He activated a VX line and EVA would be sending a comms invite to Aidan. "Secure line for you General Aidan. Ensign Trace on the line as requested," EVA said in her computerized yet womanly voice

Aidan

"Comms officer for now. I'll have to see who I can task for Intel. This is a pretty lean ship. "Tory, Start analyzing our comms and well as the comms from the Onyx when we get them. See if we can find a few clues."

Tory Trace

Tory can see it's a bit of a tall order to search for communications related to the cult members but it's something he can do to help. "I can get it done. I'll have to set up in our communications room and it would help if the governor can send over any message evidence they have relating to those cultists. I need something as a sort of reference if this needs to be done faster," he said to Aidan as he stood up from his station.

Aidan

Aidan responded, "This is top priority. Get it done."

Aidan added the comms back to the room.

Aidan

"Lt Blom, report to my ready room on the double." Aidan spoke.

Aidan

Nik hit the panel, waited for the response, and stepped in. "You wanted to see me Sir?" "Yes, I want you to coordinate with Tory, we need to smoke out the cult once and for all before I start lobbing Nova bombs." Aidan said, his tone completely serious. "Questions?" Aidan asked. "None Sir. I'll get right on it." Nik turned and left.

Tory Trace

Tory had begun to head to engineering to gather some of the equipment he will need. He would need to dive into the communication network via the use of some modified VR gear. He would be working alongside EVA inside that world. The problem now was trying to sort through all the mass quantities of data. He entered engineering to grab the needed equipment. "Ensign Shert. I need your help carrying and setting up this equipment in the comms room," he said to William Shert.

Aidan

Aidan turned back to the Governor, "Is there anything else you can tell me. You probably have a file." Aidan said, standing up and grabbing a coffee while offering to get the visitor his own.

Rockyeahh

William turns around surprised. "Oh right, yes sir." He starts to gather what they needed.

Tory Trace

Tory took some gear as well and walked with William over to the communications room. He chose the most comfortable looking chair in there and set down the dive equipment and with view screen and data storage and monitoring. "I'll need you to watch over me and the data traffic I'll be sifting through while I'm diving into the network. We're looking for any sort of message traffic from those cultists and to find out who are the likely suspects and maybe even where they are on the city ship. If anything we'll just be taking in the suspicious messages for the guys with the brains to figure it out later," he said to William as they finished the final set up.

Aidan

Nik walked up. "Put in a line tap and shunt a copy to me. I can sift through data quickly on my own. Two sets of eyes are better than one."

Rockyeahh

William starts connecting the gear. "I'll be as focused as can be. Hopefully you won't have to be in their too long." Internal panic creeps into Williams mind. He thinks for a moment "Do not fuck up on your second day!"

William sets things up for Nik too.

Tory Trace

Tory saw Nik come up and nodded. "EVA, set up a secure line for Nik as well," he said. Nik would soon get a message for Nik to take to have a data stream link too. "Given what I have to find, I might in there for awhile," he said as he placed the VR gear on his hands then his helmet. "Well wish me luck. Hopefully those crazy cultists didn't put any virus's on their stuff," he said as he began the dive. EVA was there as he jumped over to where the communication servers were. To him it was like the message files and transmissions were bigger than him as he began to run through the first large cluster of messages.

EVA would be running beside Tory as they would start to highlight some messages of interest and send it to their data storage for William and Nik to begin looking over but it certainly wouldn't have high hopes to have anything of interest to them.

Aidan

Nik talked to Eva in machine code. "Don't slow the data stream for me. Feed it as fast as possible. I will slow down when I need to."

Tory Trace

EVA nodded her head as she ran through the messages of interest. It came up with mostly coming from chat groups and messages circulating within the city ship but none seems to stand out more than just talking about the cult group. "Tory asks if you see anything or anyone that seems overly enthusiastic about the cultists," EVA said to Nik.

Aidan

"Nothing yet." Nik's voice had a monotone quality to it. His concentration was on the data.

Rockyeahh · June 16, 2020

~Notice Me Oniichan~ 09-May-20 04:34 AM

After the meeting with the governor and a bit of information gathering it was determined that the best way to work on this would be to actually send a team over to the cityship as it had more resources than that on this tiny defiant ship; if this were the Lavie that would be a different story but this little ship was meant more for recon and light response not an integrated intelligence and tactical response. It was a hole in the wall compared to the Lavie.

Aidan

Aidan's frustration was apparent. One the one hand, he might discover the mole, on the other, keeping himself from flat out killing the person spying would be near impossible, esp if he caught them.

Aidan

Eternal starvation forced Aidan to the small mess. It wasn't a mess hall, not much more than a mess closet he joked to himself as the doors opened.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Ayano messaged Aidan if she should get a team prepared or how they were going to handle the kidnapping.

Kim

Sanya considered the mission briefing in contemplative silence. The notion of treason confused and upset her. She flexed her hands as she toyed with her kit, trying to familiarize herself with her new equipment.

Aidan

The old-young Marine General responded to the message. He wanted a small tactical team ready on a moment's notice. It would consist of him, Ayasha, Ayano, and a few hand picked others. He knew what Ayano was capable of an knew that in power armor, she would be nearly as deadly as her mech. It was just a question of size and situational awareness.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Ayano acknowledged his response. Sanya had proved herself and so Ayano would appoint her as part of this team... Oscar was someone Sumire's staff appointed to a special unit and then assigned to Trinity so obviously he was already vetted by Eru Yuna and her RSS folks. She knew that people that close to Sumire could be trusted; beyond that like Aidan she didn't trust any of the others outside of their small team... There was a small short list of folks within the Royalty that could be trusted especially with Yuki; Sumire's sister. The enemy could easily use her to their advantage... Royalty was a prime bargaining chip especially in these times.

She would then leave the bridge to Godwhin whom stayed on the ship after the governor left assuming Aidan; or someone on board would need him. The old war information officer had been with Erin on and off for months now and even though he had been assigned to watch over the cityship he felt his most useful place was with the team in Trinity where he was less bogged down with bureaucracy. he could actually use his skills here without civilian leaders questioning his methods.

Aidan

Grabbing two club sandwiches and a pile of home fries, he walked back to his ready room. He could eat in the mess, but wouldn't feel completely open to talking freely.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Ayano was waiting in there for him when he arrived back.

"Want me to call the others?" Ayano asked him as he returned with food.

Aidan

"Please." he commented. He offered her one of the sandwiches and kissed her on the top the head. as he partially hugged her.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Ayano sent a message to Ayasha, Sanya, Oscar and Maki to have them meet in the ready room prepared to depart. Ayano patted Aidan lightly but with emotion in the gesture. She was still getting used to this whole being second in command and wanted to keep things professional on mission; even if they had a moment to themselves who knew who would just walk in. Having the old man walk in and gawk at she and Aidan would be strange especially with her similarities to her other self. Everyone knew who she was but having association with her other self still confused her even if she had been here awhile. Having in essence a genetically identical "twin" running around was confusing especially when you actually had no siblings.

Aidan

Sitting in his chair, the first half of the first sandwich went quickly as he speared the fried with fork and tartar sauce. "Any thoughts on switching to ground combat?" He asked Ayano.

Kim

Sanya received the message and nodded to herself. Reholstering her service pistol into a leg drop holster, she sighed and started out of the room. She paused before leaving the room and grabbed a churro. She decided to indulge in walking and eating as she made her way snacking on her churro.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Maki followed shortly thereafter following behind Sanya without saying much. Meanwhile back in Aidan's ready room Ayano shrugged. "I mean I already do both... Everyone's second job in trinity is ground support; were all infantry in the grant scheme of things... Though I guess command suits me; otherwise how would Yuka have ended up in charge of basically everyone except you..." She mused.

Oscar

Oscar opened his eyes when he received the message, since he was lying down on a bed, resting. As he got up he streched a bit, cracking his neck in the process, then putting some clothes on and heading towards the ready room.

Aidan

"Well....she was in charge of me." he said. "She was my commanding officer for a long time. It felt more shared to be honest. We tended to lean and count on one another."(edited)

He added. "I knew where the line was and let her command in her own style. You're finding your command legs. I have no doubt you're competent and capable. To be clear, I mean you, not her. There are differences and you two aren't alike in every sense."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"You've told me about your past and I looked up some things of her history here but really one thing that I don't understand... we have basically the same arrangement she wanted... Why was it different with her; did you guys agree to be fully mono or? Like I don't fully understand why things went the way they did..." She asked before the others got in the room.

Aidan

"She kept changing the relationship. First it was just us. Then us, meaning her, me and Emily. Then when that imploded she decided it wasn't to be. Then it was 'let's do with adding others. There was no structure. He liked the idea of us, but was never satisfied with just us." Aidan offered.

"At least that is my take." he added.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"I see. No consistency?"

Aidan

"And in more than just in bed. She wasn't emotionally consistent either." Aidan said.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"Rage is totally a part of life though too... Or do you mean something else?" She asked.

Kim

Sanya pursed her lips together at the fragment of conversation she caught. "Should I come back? I don't mean to interrupt?"

Oscar

Upon arriving to the room, Oscar mutters to himself while having his eyes closed, still walking forward; "Yet another mission, welp, here I go.." Then opening his eyes and greeting the others "Hello everyone."

Aidan

Aidan's mouth opened then closed. Via VX he added."Rage I can deal with. Depression and running from me....not so much."

"No come in. We have items to discuss." Aidan offered.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

Maki enters saying nothing.

"A mission." Ayano added.

Aidan

Ayasha entered and took a spot near one wall standing. She had a virtual padd via VX in her line of site to make notes as needed.

Kim

Sanya offered a smile in return and took a seat, deciding to not comment on the overhead conversation. "There are things for us to do, yes?"

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"So basically the cult captured Yuki."

"Were being sent to find her and deal with the threat."

Aidan

Aidan laughed internally at the threat comment. "Exterminate with extreme prejudice would be the correct term in my view, but alive might be more useful."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"Questions?" She asked.

Kim

Sanya wrinkled her nose at the order. "Such a waste of life. Do they really need to be executed?"

Aidan

Aidan countered quickly. "Given that enemy is giving no quarter, so yes. I actually plan on sticking their heads on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations." He said honestly.

Aidan

"There is no talking, no discussion and no mercy from their side. It's time to bring the fight and destruction to them. Show them just how awful and wasteful they have been to everything they touch." Aidan added.

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"We will be heading out in a short bit and then using the intel our analysts gathered to find them and search more..." Ayano said.

"Any other questions or clarification?"

Oscar

Oscar leans on the wall and comments on the order; "I guess I would rather not kill people if I didn't have to, but it doesn't seem like I have a choice here.. Not to mention those people are evil to the core..." He looks away while having a neutral expression on his face.

Aidan

To Sanya, Aidan offered, "I know it's horrible. But we've tried everything. If there was another option, I am all ears. But make no mistake, this is the enemy in the purest sense of the word."

~Notice Me Oniichan~

"If we had one of SNIEFs mental manipulation Atsikai we could make them live hell lifetimes repeated over and over." Maki offerred.

The group was dimissed to prepare if they had no other questions and meet in the transporter room when ready.

Kim

Sanya frowned. "If that's what we must do to save others... then they shall die."
