RPG: Key to the Cosmos

[Luzifer]

The scientist nodded, "I see. Well, as i said before i don't know anything about you product, I'm a specialist in synthetic hormones and drug-therpy but if you wish I will personally make sure that you are taken to the person in charge of your project and he will be able to tell you where you need to go if anywhere. So if you will come with us we can be on are way" he then gave her a fleeting fatherly smile and motioned for her to follow. The entire group began to move dragging Luzifer along like a sack of goods from market.

[Nespa]

babs narrowed her eyes this guy was rather pushy and she did not trust it very much "i am 100% in order both mechanicaly as humany so it isent necesary" her voice took a icey edge "by the way thats a agent you are dragging along not a sack of potatoes" she half wondert if she should stop time for a moment and pull the scientists pants down that would be a good laugh.

[Luzifer]

The scientist chuckled with a good-natured way, oblivious to the tone of her voice, or perhaps seeing in her tone something he, from his experience, found humorous, "Nooo... indeed it is not... I severely doubt it would be worth that much if we sold it. We really are sorry for all the damages it might have caused... this particular model isn't as in control as much as the others and tends to have fits but we will correct that problem and hopefully it will be more useful in its next assignment, but I am skirting things i should not speak of or i would loose my job. So, I must take my leave." With that he bowed sincerely to everyone and walked away in with a high-spirited spring bouncing in his step.

[Nespa]

babs eye twitched 'this is for you lucy' she thought as she whispered "emergancy plan alfa beta time stop"she watched how everything slowed down and then stopped. everyone was frozen except here she calculated the numbers of steps she had to take to get to the scientist and back to her place. She walked to him and unbuckled his pants and pulled it to is knee's. She raised at brow at the teddybear boxers 'knew it was a moma's boy' she thought as she stopped a moment to give lucy a peck on the check and walked back to her stop "resumed" she smirked as everything turned to normal and watched the scientist trip over his own pants, she snickers and looked innocent when he looked back ta her.

[Lucidian Dyne]

Already, his thoughts were frothing at his skull. Weapon's Demonstration? It was difficult enough to conceive of anyone having an exhaustive expanse of combat technology, such as he had seen Mia use. But, two weaponoids? [Is it right for anyone to be making these empty humanoid vessels?] Bursts of blasphemy gave Ryo a sour taste in his mouth. Knowing that they -- whoever "they" were -- were engineering more of these automatons didn't settle well in his stomach.

Ryo's mind was being assaulted by questions... Mia's unexpected appearance only seemed to make his queries more complex. "I am requesting, so long as my services are of no further use, that I may be dismissed" In brief moment left for his reply, they matched their eyes and he branded the image of the weaponoid in his mind...

She looked human. It kept repeating in his mind, ad infinitum. Outward appearances, beside her eyes, suggested she was just as frail as any other female. And -- he thought, disagreeing with Sumi's title for the weaponoid -- she was definately no "it". But here she was, a veritable facsimilie of human life, her emotions left out in favor of programmed obedience and awesome destructive power. [No... it's not right for them to be crossing lines with Creation.] Even more puzzling was that there was a collective presumption in STAARs that Ryo was Mia's handler. Never once did he think of himself as a handler... No, he was sure that Mia deserved to be her own person.

"There's the matter of your battle statistics and the combat strategies used in our mission... If there's any infomation that you have clearence to provide, I would like that info relayed to my personal files." There was a wisp of self-loathing that passed through his eyes, though his expression and voice didn't break from authority. He hoped Mia would catch the implication. "Since I am overseeing your development, this would be pertinent for any questions asked concerning your progress.

"Beyond that, I have no further tasks for you... I suppose the next time we see each other will be tomorrow at noon." He smiled softly and bowed his head in dismissal. About that time, Dante addressed him.

"Agent Stray." He nodded in his direction for him to be at ease. "I would suggest filling out your paperwork tonight for AD... and do maintenance on your AW. Those are the two things I expect from all of my agents after every mission. And don't forget to take some down time for yourself, Stray." He tipped his fingers in a dismissing salute.

He wheeled back around to Sumi, expression set with authority. "Lieutenant Katana... I wanna speak with you sometime after my night's rest. Don't trouble yourself with the subject... it's just a matter of discussing differences between STAARs policy and my policy. You'll find we do things a little differently in Team 01."

Bedtime was becoming more appealing by the second.

[Opinionated]

Using his status as an inter-racial ambassador and several "go-free" passes provided to him by STAAR, Vorridian returned the ship named after his late mate, Seeraol. He was putting more effort than he had before into putting together an effective speech for the Terrans.

At the best, the demons would decide this a low-profile target and pass it by for a time. At the worst, an invasion and re-evolving force would be here within the next few days.

They needed to be warned, and badly. Their dependence on computers would have to be removed, as the machines would hack those computers, hack their ships, combat droids, information services, communcation arrays, everything. They would be shot to death by their own robots and have the air drained from the ships and those ships used against their former masters.

"Sir, here's the thinker you requested. Leyorn." An engineer said as he set a large metallic canister down next to Vorr's desk. Inside was what kept their ships flying, the reason the Selvadt were able to fight the demons effectively.

"Thank you." Vorr said as he reveiwed the holos. He'd sent an urgent request to STAAR command concerning the safety of the Terran empire, and only hoped that the bureaucracy would be swift this time.

[Seikyu Kiba]

Dante saluted to Ryo and walked out the door, there he headed down to the hall way and into his room. There he took out some paper work and sat down "man the one thing I hate.." he said as he stated to fill it out. After about an hour of filling it out he put the papers into a folder, he placed the folder into a slot, there it shot up and went to Ryos office. "There...now time for me AW work.." He said as he walked down the hall way and went into the Hanger to look at his AW "Hmm well...everything looks fine..but better do I quick check." He says as he took out a small device and scanned it "Nope...nothing...I will do another check before we leave tomorrow." he realized he was talking to himself and shook it off. He walked out of the Hanger and down the hall two his room. There he took off all of his cloths but his boxers and threw on a white t-shirt. He just collapsed onto his bed and fell asleep.

OOC: This might be the longest I posted.

[Luzifer]

The Scientist recovered from the embarrassment of his pants falling with relative ease and continued on his exit saving face by both not stopping to exacerbate the matter and by joking about it with his fellows as though it were something that happened to everyone at one point or another in their lives. All in all he took it well and its residual effects were gone by the time the scientists and their escort of soliders had gotten a good distance away with Luzifer still unmoving body. They continued their discussion of different ideas that they had for new conditionings as well as the effects of the activities that had been slotted for "PN 231" for the next couple days. The white-haired scientist said he thought that the conditioning would help to improve the loyalty or at least the fear which Luzifer bore toward the R Division. He had a long history of problems with collateral damage every since he had been put in the Imaginary numbers brogram. The scientist, Buer, as he called himself, had known Luzifer since he had been brought in and believe he knew the boy fairly well even though he had no information on the Luzifer's past. No one did of course, since the personal data for each individual was deleted when they agreed to become part of the Imaginary Number's (iN) program, however, even upon his arrival Luzifer had been a problem. He felt that the boy had not recieved enough discipline in his youth and with the proper amount of pain and fear he could be molded into something worth while. The others disagreed. They continued to argue pointlessly until they began going through the various security checks surrounding the iN programs part of the R-division.

After going through several processes of voice identification and passcode clearences they got to Luzifer cell and dumped his body within it leaving him to regain conciousness on his own valition. Indeed they couldn't be bothered with him further as too much required their attention at the moment. They would soon be bring in the remenants of Asomodai who had been consumed by the flaw and would be religated to the 9th circle of the lockdown area.

[.Gogo]

Mia: Mia awaited Ryo's delayed reply, matching his gaze for the brief moment of silence. She logged his last set of orders into her priority list, and when he said goodbye, she nodded in return and left without another word. She wondered briefly if she would be seeing him or the others in the future. Earlier that day, when she had relayed her report on their previous mission to Head Division, she had recieved information that she would be participating in a weapons demonstration the following day. They had only given her basic knowledge of her opponent, project MARTIS. It stated that the project was entirely mechanical, unlike herself, and was 4x the size of an average AW mech. It's abilities differed greatly from hers as well, although they were not all listed for her to know. The report had only suggested that it's capabilities in comparison with her own were of equal or greater value. Whichever of them was to be proven least worthy would then be decommissioned and scrapped, destruction of all evidence of their existence would be made.

Boarding the shuttle that ran through the three divisions, she passed HD and arrived in RD in minutes. As she stepped off, everyone gawked and whispered excitedly, some pointing out who she was, some contemplating if such a tiny thing would survive to be the victor at tommorow's demonstration. Mia showed no signs of interest, and simply continued on to the sector she had been ordered to return to. Finally arriving, the doors retracted as she came near, and she stepped through. The room full of scientists quieted at her arrival, and so she spoke "Weaponoid KEI serial number 00-00-01 reporting for hybernation and maintenence procedures." The group returned her declaration with nods, and the head scientist made his way to where she stood, frowning slightly "My, it looks like Agent Division didn't keep STAAR's best creation very clean" he speculated aloud, viewing whatever remains had been left on her form. "We'll have to clean you up for tommorow."

The others in the room commented on this as well. After a brief moment Mia was led to her original enclosure that had been used previously to house her before her awakening. She stood in front of it momentarily "When will I be awakened again?" She asked suddenly. The surrounding scientists responded with beffuddled looks, the head scientist replying "Well... you shouldn't be wondering that should you?" Mia looked away from him, returning her gaze to the coffin before her "Affirmitive. The question was indirect of my objectives. I will refrain from asking such questions in the future." With that she backed into the metal encasing, it's lid snapping shut before her and enclosing her into darkness. One of the scientists hit a few buttons on his keyboard and the casing tilted backwards with a whir of gears. Cables with long needles attached at the head snapped directly into Mia's spinal cord. The black cables led to the main terminal in the room, linking her basic functions with their computers.

The scientist's chatter switched to relaying of information between eachother. After they informed the head scientist they were all ready, he gave the order for the forcible hybernation sequence to begin. An electrical charge coursed through the cables, shutting down Mia's systems and plunging her into complete darkness.

Sumi: As Sumi realized who the girl was that had just adressed Ryo, a look of disgust momentarily crossed her features. [[This is it? It looks like one of those Earth supermodels. How does it fight without breaking a nail?!]] It didn't help things with how Ryo was paying attention to it. She immediately wiped the frown off of her face as Ryo spoke to her again. [[Not how things are done in his team huh? We'll see how long that goes on once I become a member of Head Division.]]

Sumi smiled again, somewhat forcibly and spoke "Of course Captain, I would love to have a meeting with you. In fact, let's go to the Demonstration together tommorow. Anyone can come, and I'd like to see it myself anyhow." Before he could even have the chance to say no, she piped up "Great! I'll meet you in AD's lobby tommorow at 11:30am." She saluted quickly and high-tailed it outta there before he could possibly get in another word. "Good. Someone like him wouldn't be rude enough to leave me hanging." At least, she hoped he wouldn't. And this way she could cozy up to him. "Besides, I would go to the demonstration anyways just to see the weaponoid get the tar beat out of it."

She frowned slightly. She just remembered now that she had a meeting with some guy named Agent Bright. Supposedly he would be replacing Agent Zen in team 01. She arrived in the conference room she was to be meeting him in, only to find that he hadn't arrived yet. "Great... well, this Agent Bright guy has 5 more minutes, so he'd better get here."

Yoshiro: Yoshiro had followed Cerea outside the ship, and had been run into by Sabel and some whack chasing after her. "HEY!" Yoshiro shouted, halting the guy in his tracks "What makes you think you can go perving on girls like that! I oughta smash your face in!" Instead he flung his fist in rage into the wall directly next to the guy's head. The guy had cringed, eyes closed, but slowly opened them realizing he wasn't hit. As Yoshiro removed his hand from the wall, chunks of the wall fell from the crater he had produced. "NOW. Keep your eyes off my girls, eh?" The guy nodded vigorously and disspapeared.

Yoshiro turned back to Sabel "Oye, you don't have to worry anymore Sabel, I got your back. Sheesh. Pervs like that make me sick!" He proclaimed. Yoshiro had been staring at Sabel's boobs throughout the whole time he was talking to her. Suddenly he broke eye connection and looked up at the ceiling thoughtfully "Hey, lets all have breakfast together tommorow. Ya know, hangout together outside of missions." He grinned, liking the idea. "Both of you hit me up on my communicator tommorow when you wake up. I'm gonna go catch up to my partner in crime and see if he survived being alone with that evil wench." He waved at the two females and took off, sprinting down the hallway.

Rounding a corner he nearly bumped into Ryo "Oye! Well, looks like you didn't get too far ahead after all! And-" he paused, jokingly 'inspecting' him by lifting up Ryo's arms and circling him "It looks like you survived too!" He clapped "Well, now that's amazing. So, what'd I miss?"

Head Division: In Head Division's main office, three councilman took a seat at a gleaming circular wooden table. Wood furniture itself was a rarity in this day and age, and among the furniture the office was richly decorated with an assortment of statues and portraits, expensive curtains and potted plants. As the three councilman seated, holographic images of people flashed on over each of the remaining 9 seats. It was said that none of the Head Division members were all ever in one place at one time, so as to prevent overthrow of their command. As they proceeded with friendly greetings, a woman with greying hair spoke up. "Alright, let's begin. We have recieved word today from a Selvadt Ambassador stating that a threat known as the AI will be reaching ISS borders in the near future, intending on overthrowing our union with technological warfare. Now--"

She was interrupted by a slightly balding black haired man "Humph! Since when do we trust information from outside alien races! This is absurd! What if it's some sort of diversion!" This caused murmurs from the other members, but they grew silent as a white haired man spoke up "Now now, Xavier, you know ISS policy. Diplomats are to be treated with respect, after all, the weaponoid's report said that the Selvadt were the ones who had assisted Team 01 in their previous mission, did it not?" He asked with tone of goodwill. "Humph." Retorted Xavier "You're too soft Onyx. You're ideals will be the death of you." The woman who had been speaking before chose now to interrupt. "As I was saying, those proposing immediate action raise your hands in vote... 4... I see... those delaying action until after Shinku relations? That makes 7. Topic is overruled until later notice."

Suddenly Councilman Onyx spoke up again "Percinna, if I may make a request, perhaps we can schedule a meeting with this Admiral in order to make a detailed report on the threat. After all, he is just a Diplomat, he may leave at any time without warning." Percinna nodded "I see. Very well, I will schedule a meeting with the Admiral for tommorow after the Weapon's Demonstration. Thank you for your time councilmen and women, good night." Her hologram fizzled into non existence, along with many of the others. Some stayed around momentarily, chatting, but soon they were gone too. The room grew empty once again.

OOC- Sheesh... my fingers are about to fall off... not only did I spend the whole day raking leaves, then drawing the RPG pic, but now typing this post... xP heeeeeeeeeelp...

[Lucidian Dyne]

OOC -- Good gravy, girl. x_x; Any more of that multitasking and we'll put you in time out. =P

Ryo could not get a word in edgewise. Sumi simply allowed no room for rebuking. He was poised to return his salute, but her back was already facing him just as the thought crossed his mind. "... She likes being straightforward, doesn't she?" he mused to himself, scratching his head. "Straightforward with a freakin' space-scoop." (space-age bulldozers)

Right as she rounded the corner at the far end of the hallway, Yoshiro came sneaking up from behind with his signature "OYE!" exclamation. He swiftly rounded on him and gave a big grin as he checked for damages. "Hey man, you've got something on shoulder there..." WHACK! Ryo's fist pummeled against Yoshiro's shoulder without warning. Ryo choked off his building laughter and reclined his palms against his waist.

"Well," he started as he blew out his breath, "Katana tells me there's a Weapon Demonstration tomorrow. Mia's going up against another of her kind, I think. I wasn't given the full spectrum of details; though Katana seems very... goal-oriented." He shrugged. "She was in a hurry to get out of here at least. Ah, other than that, I've got a meeting with Councilman Onyx..."

He rubbed at his entire face as he yawned. He was about to crash, and hard. Any more talking, and it would be both hard and painful. "Oh. My. GOD. Yo-Yo, I'm headin' to bed. Keep an eye on the team while I'm away, huh?" He clapped his shoulder with a hand and shuffled his way to his quarters, politely greeting everyone he passed. Everying was automatic for him -- the only thing he had on his mind was bed. Bed, bed, bed. He would eat bed for dinner, have bedsheets for dessert, and drink pillowstuffing in the morning.

As soon as he got to his room, he flicked on the lights and did his undressing routine. His plugsuit went flying to corners unknown, holster placed next to his alarm clock. When he finally got into his bedwear, he gave a sleepy smile as he pecked a kiss against his fingertips. He crawled up on his bed, pressed his fingers on an item above the headboard. "Good night, Mom. Missed you." He barely had the coherence to worry about Mia's well being for a whole thirty seconds. He really hoped she would succeed tomorrow.... she just had to.

He drifted off to dreamland all at once. The old, worn velveteen teddy bear smiled perpetually above his head.

[Luzifer]

OOC: Heheh... its only natural when your doing fifty different characters i suppose. Still, anymore of this posting till your fingers bleed and we'll tie you down

Luzifer gradually came to and found himself alone in a small roomed without a door. It was oppressively small and he vaguely remembered it as the isolation chamber. It was designed to punish failure psychologically by cutting of human contact and allowing the person to destroy themselves with their own imagination. He had been its victim several times and had always disliked it. At first he always felt good, being away from people but gradually this undercurrent of angst began to rise in him. In that room one could not have their actions produce any discernable result. Bashing against the insanely plain steel walls did nothing and with no one to react to your actions one eventually ended up doubting ones own existence. He had often succumbed to his rage in this chamber, those feelings of burning hatred that he could never direct against anyone but himself. The tingling inadequacy slowly began to gnaw at him, taking small chucks of his sanity down into his core. He felt isolated and abandoned… mostly abandoned…ruthlessly abandoned. Now, however he sighed, he had too much to do. He had so much training to do that he wouldn’t let himself get sidetracked by emotions he didn’t really feel. Fake emotions that had been left inside his body to create a psuedo-soul.



He stood of slowly, stumbling against a wall as the world spun sickeningly around him, its forms melting flush together into an undifferentiable mass. The distorted vagueness of the word created a hard pulse that sent pain through his eyes and into a nerve located at the temple and he closed his eye putting a hand over the amethyst-forged orb that floated unclouded by hair. He felt sick and suddenly he threw up onto the cell floor, half digested bit of oatmeal spilled from his body and fell onto the ground in an amorphous pool, already starting to coagulate sickeningly beneath him. He fell to his knees, careful to place himself down so that he didn’t put a hand or a knee in his own vomit and crouched there until he could think and balance properly again. The sedatives they had given were particularly strong this time, he hadn’t gotten this sick from their use in a long time.



When he managed to stand he took a few steps to test out his ability to walk and make sure he could, uncertain about the effects the drug might have had on his coordination. However, he had no trouble. He heard a sound, like paper being slid across a well greased desk and looked toward where his memory told him the serving unit came out from the wall. The serving unit was a large tray that came from the wall and could be accessed from one side of the wall depending on whether it was pulled in or extended into the room. Thus the scientist could put things Luzifer needed, such as food and medication, on the tray without allowing him human contact.



On the tray was a bowl of oatmeal – someone was being ironic -, two syringes, and a note. He took the things off the tray and as soon as he had it receded back into the wall forming evenly with the surface until he could scarcely have seen where one piece of frostily polished steel met the other.



He began to eat while reading the note- his watch hadn’t beeped so he knew he had a while until his drugs began to clear out of his system and he would need to take more. The note read: “Belphagor died. Asmodai was consumed. Take both syringes. Lance: Cleared, next mission assigned, test. Nephilim: Pending.” Belphagor was an idiot if he remembered correctly. He had some talent and while he had the cockroaches will to live he lacked the desire for strength and it didn’t surprise him that he had died shamefully. Belphagor, his brash red hair blazing on his head in a huge swooping comb over, would often brag about what had gotten him on deathrow. He had been a soldier and had killed his superior in order to free up a promotion for himself. What was idiotic was that Belphagor had straight up challenged him to a fight instead of killing in a more clandestine way. Thus the murder was quickly uncovered and Belphagor (or whatever his name had been at the time, before he had been deleted) was sentenced to death.



But Asmodai being consumed? That was interesting. Here he thought the training was there to eliminate those candidates that could not hold up against the ravages of the Flaw. So they were still vulnerable even after all the years of psycho-conditioning? He might have to keep that in mind.



Still he was glad to here that the Lance of Longinus. As his personal weapon of choice it would be good to feel its steel surface back in his hands.



Suddenly he felt something on his cheek. Placing his hand there he felt some crusty substance, like a human fluid, which had gotten on his cheek and dried. He couldn’t tell which fluid it might be but in any case it wasn’t supposed to be on him so he rubbed it off quickly.

[Nespa]

Babs saw that everyone had left already and also left for her room. In there she sighed an rubbed her face she was phsicaly and mentaly drained, zen was taken away, lucifer went mad, suddenly having to use her time controling abilitys and now some bloody woman was gonna change things with ryo. she walked towards her desk and noticed a piece of paper that aparantly had been laying there for a few days. she picked it up, it was a commando form and she read it "agent shadow for your fisrt mission your have direct order to remain on the captain' ship. signed head robocynist" babs sighed they must have had putted it there after she left. she dropped the paper and plugged her cable into a calble port in the wall "send report to ryo's computer" as her pupils flickered ryo's printed started up and printed out her report. After that she took a quick shower anjd laid in her bed.

[Emo is the name]

Kyo remembered that he had a meeting with someone about replacing a team member of Agent Ace's team. He looked at his watch and he was going to be late. He started to run. 'Run Kyo RUN LIKE WIND!' He mentaly told himself. He turned a corner and another and another he skidded to a stop just before he hit someone and continued to run. He soon became more tired but still could run. He had two minutes left or he would be late but he turned a cornor and found the confence room. He stopped for a second to catch his breath. He walked in and found that a single woman was there. "Ah, hello. I'm Yoko Kyo or Agent Bright. And you are?" Kyo asked politly.

[.Gogo]

OOC- I... can't... stop!! Lol

Yoshiro: Yoshiro nearly flew flat on his butt when Ryo handed it to him. Growling, he soon forgot about it after listening to the events Ryo described. He started having flashbacks of when he and Sumi had been together. No wait, those were flashbacks of Amy... or was her name Samantha? "Uh yeah, seeya tommorow!" Yoshiro called after Ryo's retreating back, having been left alone in the hallway with his thoughts.

He turned around and headed for his own quarters, eager to get to bed. Arriving in his room he threw his shirt in a heap on the floor, kicked off his shoes, and didn't even bother to get to his pants, instead flopping onto his bed with a groan. He'd put in his report to Ryo first thing tomorrow, he was always the last one to turn in his report anyways. His hand fumbled around and he set his alarm for 8am. His body felt like it weighed 500 pounds, but he just couldn't get his mind to shut down. It was racing; The weird cloaked guys, Zen being captured, Luzifer trying to kill them, Sumi becoming a part of their team, and then Mia's Weapon's Demonstration tomorrow. He had never been completely partial to the weaponoid, for fear of accidently perving and then getting his face smashed in, but he couldn't argue that she was useful. Thanks to her they were able to survive their last mission. If she wasn't around...

He didn't want to think about it. "Run program 4, ISS news" he said out loud. Listening to the news always made him sleepy. A large holoscreen positioned on the wall flickered on. "Today in the ISS, the new Kay-mine dog was put on shelves, and has recieved the largest support of any toy on the market this season, and perhaps in history. Since most ISS families cannot afford the esteemed luxury of owning a real dog, people young and old have been lapping-" [[great, stupid news jokes]] "-them off the shelves. The artificial dog looks, feels, and behaves exactly like a real dog, but without the responsibility of cleanup or feeding. Softlines, the company who developed Kay-mine, says that they're planning on releasing the cat version of the toy, labeled Fee-mine, very soon. In other news, Bain colo--" Yoshiro then zoned out completely, welcoming the sleep. He dreamed about Kay-mine puppies, of beating up Luzifer, and of course, girls in bikinis.

Shinku: Oni replied to Zen's inquiry "Oh, probably nothing. She's just a hag who thinks she's better than everyone else because she's cozy with Master. She likes to feel important" he said, a wide smirk crossing his face. After the people in the room flooded out, Vanity was alone with the three she had ordered to stay behind. "Alright, you three are a special case. Along with Ula, you're our best trained. Everyone else is strong, but they have yet to harness their power completely." She paused, crossing her arms over her chest, and shooting Oni a particularly rude look. She continued, "So, Master Carmine has a special task for you." She stretched the word special with emphasis. "He wishes for you three to meet with him in his chambers after your training sessions." She paused, eyeing Zen. She already decided she didn't like him too much. Then again, there was few people she genuinely liked. "Oni, if it isn't beyond you, show Zen how we spend our days here. You're all dismissed. Don't forget to meet with Master, or else." She left the three alone.

Oni frowned. "My my my, that woman..." He turned back to Zen "Oh! Well well well, it seems as if we'll be able to find out just what you can do! You see, here we spend day hours training, until lunch hour anyhow. You could say this place is, a sort of, academy, set up by Master." He paused, searching for words to explain "Master found all of us and brought us here to be safe, he's taught us how to use our powers, helped us with our side effects. Thats what this place is for. He's our savior." He said plaintively, Brazen nodded wholeheartedly in reply. "Well! Lets get to the training rooms then!"

The threesome arrived at a series of white rooms, with long glass panels revealing the inside. They walked into one and stood on it's solid white surface, able to see rows and rows on either side of other rooms with people training on the inside. Oni outstretched his hand and gestured to the room "Let's train. How about you and Brazen spar? We can see just what you're made of, hm?" He said smirking.

KEI Sector: Inside the newly designate KEI sector, the scientists were busy trying to crack the code on KEI's security systems. A women wiped her forehead in frustration "I can't believe that even our experts can't crack this code. It's ridiculous! It's like, some other-worldly force is keeping us out!" A man sitting next to her scoffed "Come now! That's absurd. Its just a shame that the old team died in that freak accident is all. It would make things alot easier if they were still handling the project, or at least if we had all the information on KEI's build. I mean, we have no idea what we're doing." The head scientist interjected "Well, we were all chosen to work this project because we're some of the brightest techs in RD. So start being more bright, hm?" He walked off to go and get some coffee.

Another male scientist sighed and said "Well, it would be better if we could make more though huh? More weaponoids?" A woman next to him nodded "Yeah, if we had an army of weaponoids, Agent Division would be more useless than they already are." Another man replied "No, that's impossible. You do know about the requirements to be a candidate for the project right? Not only does it take years of funds, the right technology, but the body being used has to have the Complex." The female who had spoke earlier nodded "Oh yeah, that's right. But I thought that those with the complex had a white marking on their bodies somewhere. Where's KEI's?" A younger male scientist chuckled "Well, maybe it's covered. I have an idea, how about we go check it out?" He elbowed the guy next to him playfully in the ribs. A girl scientist groaned "You've gotta be kidding me! You're talking about a robot you know!" "Yes, but it's a girl robot. Besides, it has a real body eh? Hahaha" The girl socked him in the head "Perv! Sheesh, you guys really need to get out more!"

Sumi: "WELL! It's about time, agent!" Sumi exclaimed at the arrival of Agent Bright. She didn't bother wasting manners on him, after all, he was below her rank and there were no superiors about to monitor her behavior. "My name is Lieutenant Katana. I'm here to give you information on Captain Ace's team. Now-" she said, waving a folder "-here's all the agent's names that you are to be working with. Currently, Team 01 is not on a mission, but you can still get to know your fellow teammates while you're all on break." She shrugged "You'll recieve a summons when the next mission comes in, until then, do some training and like I said, get to know your teammates." She brushed past him "I'm off to bed! Any questions patch it to my office."

Babs woke up something felt wrong and she coulden't place it. she yawned and looked at her clock it was around three. groaning she stepped out of bed and walked to her computer putting it on knowing she woulden't get back to sleep anyway. she plugged her cable into the computer and started to surf the web until she got a e-mail, she blinked and opened it finding a file with a picture of the doctor who helped her. she could see he stood in her room and pointed to something at the wall but there was nothing there. curious she walked to the wall it was a outside wall meaning she had no other soldiers behind it. she started to knock on it and found a hollow area, she was about to make a hole in the wall when someone knocked at her door. she turned from the wall to open itand found a couple of soldiers who ogled her because al she wore was a black silken nightshirt "something you need?" they looked at her. One regained poser and spoke "your needed in the science lab"babs nodded and turned back to grab a robe and walked with them.

Dante awoke and went to get a shower, about 15mins later he walked out in a towel and threw on his close. He walked out of his room and into the hall was and laughed "Hmm seems like a great day!" Then he felt a breeze and looked down. He ran back in when he realized he had no pants on. "Oops." he said getting his pants on and walking down the hall to the louange. He grabbed a donut and grabbed some coffee and sat down in a chair, relaxing.

Sabel had not expected that from Yoshiro but if it got him off her back she could care less. She went inside the ship and checked to see if anything of hers was forgotten. Thne yawning and deciding it was time to turn in she passed Cerea and murmured a soft "Goodnight Cerea" then headed for her room. She'd turn in her report in the morning she always had time for that. She took a hot shower and put on her night clothes and collasped on the bed. In her dreams he was there. Had she been concious she wouldn't be surprised that that was the direction her dreams took. She sat bolt upright. She was sweating "I haven't had that one in years" she muttered surprised. Then looked at the clock. "Better work on the report" she said. Then set up her laptop and began to work on the report. She finished and sent it. Remebering Yoshiro's invitation she contacted him. "Remember that invitation Yoshiro?" she said by way of greeeting.

[Emo is the name]

"Well arn't you miss uptight." Mumbled Kyo under his breath as Sumi left. Kyo sighed as he left to room. He checked the folder of the people and there picture. He saw the first one it said Captain Ryo. He kept looking until he saw a agent with a big X of it info. Agent Crinsom. Sighing, Kyo went to find some of these people. He walked into a relaxing area and noticed that a man was sitting down eating a doughnut. Kyo looked in the folder, "Dante." Kyo said quietly. He walked over and grabbed a doughnut and sat down across from Dante. After finishing a doughnut he said,"Hi I'm Kyo I'll be a new member of your team." He said brightly.

[Luzifer]

Luzifer pulled a PIA out of his pocket and a holographic key board, with a screen, appeared. He decided to take some time and determine what would be happening over tthe next few days since he couldn't afford to be completely ignorant despite his being locked up in a cage... While he did so he paced in order to keep his body active and alert. He first began by running his usual search, the letters appearing with staccato swiftness, "B-E-E-Z-L-E-_-S-A-B-N-A-K" as usual it turned up nothing. There were no reports of a person by the name of Beezle Sabnak for the past year. He had disappeared. Luzifer knew he was still alive though... could taste it in his marrow but that meant nothing if he couldn't get into physical contact with the bastard.

He ran a search about was happening on the outside of the lab... a bunch of minor events came up, staff meetings and the like but buried in them was something about a weapon demonstration. "Weapons Demonstration of the KEI and MARTIS projects to occur tomorrow. " He began skimming through some of the specifics and discovered that it was a test to determine which project they would continue and which they would scrap. Ha... they would obviously scrap the MARTIS one... Mia was by far more powerful then whatever tool those maggots could construct.

He would be sure to watch that when it started... he could probably reroute a security camera to his PIA if he needed to.

He then looked at the two syringes. One he could tell was his normal dosage of Gamma Triphephalene but the other he was uncertain about. Were they adding something else to his medication. He picked them both up but took the dosage of Gamma Triphephalene before the unknown substance. He then sat down to wait for the effects to start so he could study them.

OOC- awww.... I don't wanna post... let's all go back to sleeeeeeeeeep... lol jk

Yoshiro: Yoshiro was sitting on a beach, surrounded by beautiful women, and playing with that new Kay-mine puppy. He threw a frisbee, but suddenly the dog grew into a huge drooling angry looking beast. Yoshiro was like, WTF?? The dog opened it's mouth and went.... BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

Yoshiro flopped out of his bed and onto the ground. His alarm clock was blaring- he had forgotten he even set the thing. "SHUT UP!" he shouted at it groggilly. It didn't listen. In a sleepy rage he picked it up and flung into the wall, smashing it to peices. That woke him up "Damnit! Not another alarm clock!" He rubbed his eyes, realizing the ISS news was still on. "Close program 4..." he muttered, watching the screen dissapear. He suddenly remembered that he needed to send AD his report. "Sheesh. Stupid report..." Yoshiro sat at his pc and typed it up, adding alot of emphasis on how he had destroyed all of the enemies single-handedly, and then how he knocked Luzifer out with one punch, and then how he got everyone out of the hangar before the ship blew. Suddenly realizing that his report was only about 10% truthful, he deleted it and started over. Satisfied, he sent it directly to AD's main offices, and then sent a copy to Ryo's pc, for Ryo's personal files. Yoshiro then hopped in the shower.

After a few minutes he got out, got dressed, and stared in the mirror for a number of minutes before his communicator started beeping. "Oye! Sabel! Whatsup? ..... Oh yeah, that's right. Hey, meet me in the lounge in 10, alright?" He cut off the communicator and checked the time- 8:22. Ryo was probably still sleeping, the guy looked dead last night. And what about Cerea or Babs? Or Dante and that squirt Kleiss? He decided to drop them a line when he arrived in the lounge.

Walking through the double doors he saw an array of breakfast foods layed out [Something good about having a job as a STAAR agent, they always had everything ready for you] He sat at a circular table, resting his feet on a nearby chair. Suddenly, he realized that Dante was in the same room, along with some other guy he didn't recognize. "Oye! Dante! Whatsup?!"

Sumi: Sumi awoke with the sun, or rather, the artificial sunlight that was to signal the arrival of the new day. She yawned slightly as she climbed out of bed. She took quick look around her room; everything was immaculately tidy. Not a book out of place, an article of clothing on the floor, or a stack of paperwork untidy. And even now, she fixed her bed, further adding to the perection of the room. She took a quick shower, no longer than 10 minutes, and then got dressed, fixing her hair in normal fashion and topping it with her beret. She took extra care in her appearance today though, making sure that not a wrinkle or hair was out of place. She had someone to impress. Lastly, she grabbed her two katanas and hitched them onto their straps, they layed crossed at her lower back. Sumi turned around to headed out the door, ready to start the day.

[Lucidian Dyne]

"Sawatari-san~ Sawatari-san~ Sawatari-san~"

Confidence came in the form of a teenaged, chestnut haired orphan boy. His grin flashed to the members of his posse, all of them bedecked in varying shades of red and white. The chanters were situated in a huge semicircle around the youngster, thrusting their fists in the air in sync with the boy's name.

He was cool, confident. Welcomed. He could turn his face to anyone around him, and they see him for who he was, what he had become. Not for what he looked like. If anything, the triple-square patch on his left eye was the symbol of the greatest youth to ever walk the streets of Alden. He lifted his hands in a bid for silence, and the white noise of approval died off, until only the unmistakable sounds of gyromobiles and hoverbikes were heard beyond the enclosure of buildings around them.

"Who here is ready... for an execution?"

The audience went ballistic. There were red bandannas flying all over the place, fluttering down in a mixture of heaps and fluttering banners, screams of Sawatari filling the ruinous, abandoned courtyard. There were kids sitting on top of crumbled walls, peeking out from rundown playground equipment, sitting in swings or on their supports. Chains were being slapped on the ground in bone chilling rattles of bloodlust. There was a white sheet that draped over an unidentifiable collection of mass.

"Maybe you didn't hear me! I said..."

The congregation choked itself off, watching the young man in the center. He slowly lowered his arms behind him, shuffling in his back pants pockets.

"Who here is READY FOR AN EXECUTION!?" The moment he pulled out his pulse pistol, everyone screamed in twisted delight. The chanting got faster, the sounds got louder, the cries for entertainment bounded raucously off of the enclosure's walls.

"Rangers! I dedicate this death... to you!" He spun rapidly on on his heel and instantly fired a single shot at the hook holding up the sheet. The hook twanged with a metallic snap, and the weighted pulley it was attached to reeled the sheet back to reveal...

Three teddybears sitting on a cinder block.

The cheers were deafening.

There was a lull of authority as someone shouted from behind him. "Are you ready!?" The cheers brightened and whistles of approval were heard. There was no tension at all in the Ranger's throng of members. They lived for this sort of thing.

"Three... two... one... zero!"

Someone had thrown a little plastic ball in between Sawatari and the first teddy. He trained his only eye on that ball, his gun readied. It intersected just like it was meant to, and the gun squelched with its raw, purple energy. It shredded through the ball and the teddy bear in railgun fashion: in a split second, there were two explosions: one of massive confetti, another of cotton stuffing. The bear was mangled beyond all belief -- charred, ripped from the inside out, and on fire.

Everyone whooped and cheered him on.

The second ball was released. "doo-PIFF" More confetti and stuffing. Everyone was twice as pleased with the performance. Two targets per shot, not a single miss.

"Ready! And! Pull!"

Three balls were dropped from a walkway overhead. Sawatari licked the corner of his lips, his eye trained on each of, falling perfectly in line. He pulled the trigger. "Doo-doo-doo--"

The third explosion of red confetti caused everything to slow down drastically. What used to be a teddy bear -- just moments before the balls were intact -- had shifted to reveal a young, striking platinum haired girl, being showered upon by pieces of confetti that had also transformed into falling sakura petals. She had the most serene eyes... looking at Sawatari with all of the understanding in the universe. He recognized her. He definately knew her, his green eye widening in tearful fright. There was nothing but empathy in her smile... forgiveness in those pupiless blue eyes of hers.

And thoses eyes were immediately separated down the middle.
~-----------------------------~
Ryo bolted upright in his bed with a breath-stealing gasp, his body racked in sweat. It was the most frightening dream he had had in years.

He looked over at the clock. 9:30 AM in the morning. He sighed to himself as he lurched to sit at the edge of the bed, burying his tired face into his hands.

He dared not reason with the dream he just had.

KEI Sector: The scientists of the KEI sector had turned in late, being unsuccessful in cracking KEI's security codes. As they piled in early at 8am that morning, they began work again. The goal was to crack the codes and get the information on the weaponoid's build before it's hour of possible destruction arrived. Shuffling to their terminals, the techs all took a seat, still groggy from the lack of sleep. Computers whirred to life, key's began to clack, screens filled with information. After about twenty minutes, they seemed to fully wake up, as smalltalk filled the room.

Suddenly warnings poured out on the monitors, smalltalk turned to exclamations of shock from the techs. The head scientist growled "What's going on here?! What'd you guys do?!" "S-s-sir! It's some sort of energy overload coming from KEI sir!" A nearby tech stammered "Well? Identify it now!" The head scientist shouted "Ye-yes sir!" The tech replied, his voice heavy with worry. Suddenly one of the computers blew to peices before them. The scientists all scrambled to the opposite side of the room, as one by one the computers connected to KEI's cables blew to peices, finally the main terminal itself, which was able to hold immense volts of power, cackled with electricity and blew out.

The room was completely silent for a moment, no one even moved. Finally a tech spoke up "Wh-wh-- what was that??" The head scientist paused for a moment before replying, "In.. in the weaponoid's report yesterday, it said that it was experiencing brief energy malfunctions, where it's systems would overdrive in an energy surge. I... didn't think it was this bad" The techs stood rooted to the ground for a moment, waiting to see if it was safe to move again. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, they manuevered about the room to peice together the numerous bits of equipment destroyed.

Councilman Onyx: The councilman awoke to the new day with a head full of thoughts. It was no different than any other day, except to him, it was. He would have to warn, not only warn, but ask, something very important from someone. He dressed in his business suit, and left his personal housing and arrived at the lobby of Head Division. Just the sight of any of the Divisions would take an outsiders breath away. Each Division's main lobby was crafted in the same manner, it's polished white walls, it's crystal glass ceilings, the decorative flags proclaiming the STAAR symbol and slogan. Upon walking in one would see the floors upon floors laid out before them in full view, coupled with the hustle and bustle of hard working STAAR members. As the Councilman walked into the Head Division lobby, he found there to be an unusal increase of activity. He realized then that it must be due to the Weapon's Demonstration occurring later that day. He had to chuckle to himself; no Weapon's Demonstration had ever recieved such attention. Usually it was just testing carried out in the Demonstration area, but this was of rather larger importance.

As he found himself alone in the Head Division meeting office, he seated himself in the comfortable seat, glad to be rid of the noisy lobby. He ran his hand through his white hair, awaiting the arrival of Captain Ryo.

Dante looked at Kyo and held out his hand "Dante" he said and nodded "It's great to have you aboard." He then chuckled a bit "Actually we need new people this place gets dull after 5mins." He then looked at Yoshiro when he entered the room "Ah nothin really how about yourself?" He asked tilting his head. "So what's this meeting on?"

[Nespa]

babs grumbled softly as she walked towards the lounge. from three o clock to 7.30 they had been interogating her and al because of her 'suddenly changed behavior'. she clenched her fist as she recalled the conversation.

earlyer:

babs walked after the soldiers in her robe 'this better be important'she thought as she entered a office three scientist sat there two she did not know and one she rmembered was the asistant of the mean guy who dragged lucifer off. The looked at her "agent shadow we have called you here because if your sudden care for agent lucifer" babs raised a brow "i was merely acting as a female, the motherhen so to say" she frowned. The man laced his fingers together "before the mission you did not show any interest in human interaction, you preffed to stay with cerea i believe". Babs narrowed her eyes "andriods was al i met, i was either with cerea or i was training and being tested on" she crosses her arms. The woman on his left nodded "i see and the human interaction made old instincts awake so to say" babs nodded. The assitant didn't buy it aparantly but nodded "i see your dismissed" he said and left the room with the other two

now.

babs looked at the disk in her hand it said "naughty nurses 2.5"but it was actualy a copy of her backup disk "i give it to yoshiro maybe he can keep it safe"she thought as she entered the breakfast area.

Zen readied himself to fight Brazen. Though his vocabulary was horrific he was smart in battle. He didn't need to go easy on him. 'Ok so he can regrow his body parts and has speed and strength. I may be able to wear him down and get a good hit. Well lets see who has more stanmia.' Zen thought. Zen ran up for a close up battle. 'If I take it easy I may get him worn down before me.'
