Colony 101: Market-

Most people would stop an attack if it hit a target it was no suposed to, especially if the target was a close friend from years ago. Most people would rapidly apologize and see what they would do to make the situation better if such mistake was made. But no one expected Kanna to stop OR be sorry. She shot every bit of energy she had until she had to stop. She was shaking from anger, and from the fact that her powers were seriously out of wack. Erin shot forward a massive gust of wind at the woman and Kanna glared at Rica for a second, took a step forward to blast her own energy and felt her knees give out on her.....A second later she blacked out.

"Mom!" Melanie exclaimed, rushing over to the now unconscious woman when it was safe to do so. Melanie had never actually seen her mother overload herself and pass out.

".....Well that's one way to end this" Jason stated, blinking. He, unlike Melanie was quite used to seeing this. It happened quite a bit with Melanie through the years. Though he was surprised that his mother got that mad. He didn't have time to check on his mother for a minute (since he knew she was alive at least, since it was not that serious) instead he rushed over to Erin before she could get another attack ready. He wasn't sure if she'd keep fighting.

"Erin! Calm down! It's okay!" Jason said to the girl. Knowing it would be stupid to get too close too fast. She was just as mad as Kanna had been. He didn't really get what made the two so mad, but considering it was about NERV it had to be bad.

Eva smiled and gave a very grateful thanks before turning to leave the room, but the girl didn't get the chance as a confrontation erupted. Eva stood there confused. Knowing they REALLY had bad timing...This could end badly...

Misato blinked.

Asuka. THE Asuka Langley Soryu...was...crying. Crying.

That...was unusual. Although she had expected it would occur sometime.

She nodded.

"Yes...I'll...I'll tell him. Although he'll probably want to see you, now that your condition has improved."

Misato herself was curious. She still believed in NERV, even after this. She knew the Narrohs, she had been heavily involved in the EVA pilots' lives, and more.

But seeing this...someone she genuinely cared about (as an adoptive daughter, she was the "mother" of the EVA pilots at NERV HQ)...the fact that NERV seemed finished...

...she shook her head. So many issues...

...she looked back to Asuka.

"Well, I'm glad you're alright. For whatever it's worth, the EVAs are...dead..." she said.

Republic fringe colony-city center

Quistis' fists tightened as well, her eyes narrowed.

Then, she felt something else, listening as Sama spoke.

There was truth in his words. He may have been wacky, informal, disregarding of the rules, and more, but he was not inconsiderate. He LOVED his friends. Hearing the explaination...how things didn't work out as Sama planned, how things had gone wrong, how he had done something so drastic and (in her mind) so stupid, just to try to help.

Suddenly, her instincts as the self-appointed "big sister" of her group came flooding back. She walked over to Sama, standing right in front of him. Tears slowly made their way out of her eyes, but she looke down to hide them.

Then, (unless he blocked it) she slapped him.

"You idiot." she said. "You ludicrous, noble, pathetic, enviable IDIOT." she said.

Meanwhile, Didymus and his bodyguards had arrived, their footsteps echoing in the room, but Didymus held them up, waiting outside.

He...let them have their space.

Protoss colony

"OUR people?!" Aldaris was as indignant as Zeratul. Whoever was right here, it appeared they were both convinced and possessed (or perhaps, were possessed with) equal drives.

"YOUR people, the EXILES, chose YOU as their leader! The TRUE protoss know a lunatic when they see one! The high templars would have vanquished the zerg, it was your defeatist mentality and insistence on the use of forbidden arts that drew so many of us away and robbed the templars of their strength in our darkest, most crucial, and what otherwise would have been our most TRIUMPHANT hour! FEAR may have driven may of the lesser templars to support you, but we know that you are insane! You have NO RIGHT to accuse me of treason when you AWAKEN a weapon too powerful to be unleashed for NO reason, without consulting the rest of the conclave, and bring OUTSIDERS here along with it!" he insisted.

[Colony 101: Market]

Rica gave a small sigh as Kanna passed out. Well, at least no one would be getting killed at the moment. He brushed himself off as his skin reformed around his wounds, and he turned to look at Erin.

“It’s over. Calm down. Let’s all just calm down.”

He then turned and looked to Jason. “Can you carry her to the car?”

Sure, things looked bad now… but he was sure Kanna would calm down. Erin could just make out with Jason until she was calm, and Kanna could raid Rica’s liquor cabinet. In the end, everybody would be fine.

[Protoss Templar Colony]

Jordan instinctively put himself in front of Molly as it looked like all hell was about to break loose. Though, the Gunner wasn’t sure if he could take on a group of these aliens… especially with only his bare hands.

Zeratul glared at Aldaris and held his ground.

“You are WRONG, Aldaris! Many High Templar agreed with elevation to power. You seem to forget that were it not for the Dark Templar, the High Templar would have been destroyed on Auir! My people have been nothing but outcasts, but we returned when you needed our help. Tassadar understood that!”

Zeratul knew that evoking the name of Tassadar was a risk. He was considered the hero of the High Templar, and yet he was also a man who wanted to unite the two long-divided tribes.

“You are mistaken in one other way, Aldaris… I consulted the conclave about awakening KOS-MOS; I just did not consult YOU. Nor was I required to. Now stand down!”

Suddenly, six figures appeared in the room. The truth was, they had always been there. Zeratul’s private guard – Dark Templar warriors of the highest order. They remained cloaked constantly unless they were needed.

“You risk destroying the peace that I have worked so hard to build between our people!” Zeratul growled.

[TRS Florence]

Asuka did not react much. She simply turned over onto her side and pulled the blanket up to her chin. She honestly could not stand to keep talking about this, and a million emotions were racking her brain.

“… Thank you.” She said meekly to Misato.

[Republic Fringe Colony: City Center]

Sama was… confused.

He was in a sheer hell inside his heart, and he could not tell in that moment if Quistis blamed him, hated him or had forgiven him. Did she understand? Could she? Would Zell? Could any of them?

He shook his head.

-Protoss Colony-

“...They are still a long way though. From the Three,” The Doctor said, then glanced towards the same tower that chaos was, “But they certainly have potential...Just like many of the other species. My bet's on the humans right now.”

Of course, there was that old prophecy, which very few knew. The Time Lords, the Chozo, and the Pemalites knew of it, and whoever they had passed it down on. Of three species that would exist until the end of the universe. The end of time, or whatever the end would be.

Humans were one of these prophesied species. As were the Yeerks...There was, one other...

-Protoss Templar Colony-

Ben watched, as the Protoss argued amongst each other.

“Hey!” Ben shouted, stepping forward, to make himself seen, “Look, I may not know what's happening, but we don't mean any harm. We're simply trying to help someone.”

He glanced to KOS-MOS, “We're leaving now, so you don't have to get yourself in a huff over this!”

-Colony 101: Market-

Erin shuddered still, tears still coming down her cheeks, watching as Kanna collapsed. She held up her hands, as if preparing to strike once more.

"Erin! Calm down! It's okay!"

The girl froze, the wind dieing down around her, her hair a mess. She paused, then stumbled forward, grabbing his shirt, and like last night, began to sob into it.

Galv stood still, unsure of what to do. Finally, he walked over to Melanie and Kanna, though kept some distance.

He really couldn't make himself feel worried about the woman, but he was worried about Melanie.

Ethan, meanwhile, frowned, having watched everything unfold. Normally, he'd have jumped in on a fight, but he knew this wasn't one you could.

“...I can carry her to the car,” Ethan said to Rica, “Unless you'd rather. The girl seems to be using Jason as a tissue at the moment.”

chaos gave a slow nod, his entire body coiled. He seemed to be getting even more tense, as if sensing something from that direction. His eyes were snapping quickly from the tower to the rest of the colony back to the tower again. IT was as if he was measuring distance with his eyes.

"There is too much tension... Too much. I hope the strings don't snap... I'm sorry, I have to go. Something bad is about to happen."

And he started to hurriedly walk towards the Protoss colony. He knew something was about to happen... Something that could either settle, or something that could erupt in a battle where there would be casualties. And that was not something he could permit. He wasn't a healer for nothing, he didn't have these powers just so he could flaunt them. No, they were there for a reason... And that reason was this.

He hurried away from the location of the T.A.R.D.I.S, quickly making his way to the entrance to the colony...

Protoss Templar Colony

While Eva was an adventure seeking teenager, she knew when she and her friends were seriously out matched. The fact that the beings surrounding them were way bigger was an indication of that....

"I think we need to get KOS-MOS out of here..." Eva whispered to Jordan, looking to the doorway in which they came from....But that was easier said then done. She didn't want to do anything that would set off anyone..

“We're leaving now, so you don't have to get yourself in a huff over this!”

Eva REALLY hoped they were okay with that...


Colony 101: Market

“Can you carry her to the car?”

"Uh yeah-" he made a motion to move to his mother but stop as Erin was against him once more, sobbing loudly. Jason frowned, pink in the face, rubbing the girl's back in effort to quell the tears.

Melanie meanwhile looked absolutely petrified still, sitting by her mother. It was obvious that she was breathing (she was basically just asleep after all), but just the fact that she was lying there was scary enough.

From his spot Jason tried to calm his sister as well. "It's okay Mel, she's just knocked out. Trust me, she'll be fine in an hour or two" he patted Erin's back again.

Aldaris was shocked in several ways.

"You lie! I am the conclave's trusted emissary! They would have informed me of such an occurrence! And how DARE you invoke the name of Tassadar! He was a servant of our people and dedicated to the ways of the templar! Your aid in our hour established your rise to power, did it not? You dissuaded us from a successful strategy and convinced the others to turn to the forbidden arts and designs that could save us! You abandoned our homeworld! But now...in addition to awakening the forbidden weapon when our foe is not upon us, you bring OUTSIDERS here!"

Then, the dark templars appeared. He had suspected something was amiss-dark templars rarely "fought fair", and his psionic abilities had tipped him off to SOMETHING, but this was...too far.

"You would DARE to ambush the emissary of the conclave?! This is proof of your madness! The power you have seized is convincing you to act more boldly and dictatorial! The conclave MAY have let you unleash the weapon, but when they discover what else you've done bringing it here, revealing our sanctuary...they will see your madness."

He paused.

"I shall depart. But I shall return when the conclave...next wishes to see you." he said.

Republic fringe colony-city center

Didymus stepped forward.

"Sama...fall in."

Quistis whirled.

"You..."

"I would not find it surprising if you know me, and while I hate to be interrupting something, the fact remains that I need to have a..chat...at least, with Sama there following some of his actions in the recent battle.

Quistis...didn't know what to think. In truth, she didn't know if she blamed, or hated, or at least wanted to forgive him yet herself. But she thought Didymus was being VERY inconsiderate. To put it mildly.

In truth, Didymus didn't want to do this. But he had to, Sama had violated orders, (albeit he had somewhat relented for a bit). Considering that relenting, Sama wasn't in for a court-martial on grounds of insubordination (or, perhaps, any sort of official reprimand), but he was at least in for a talking-to.

Quistis, still attempting to recompose herself, glared daggers at Didymus.

"Sama." he said. "Your...new friend...would like a word with you." she said. "By the way...your ball date was in town. We talked about you a bit. How ironic." she said.

Misato nodded.

"Of course...is there...anything else you need?" she asked.

-Protoss Templar Colony-

Ben sighed, watching as the two sides fought amongst each other. Thankfully, it was only verbally.

As the four headed back outside, he paused, seeing three other individuals. None of which he recognized.

One of them in a tweed jacket and bow tie paused, seeing Ben.

“You...Ben!” The Doctor suddenly shouted, “It's you! Where have you been? Been doing well? I see you're up to adventures.”

“Who...who are you?” Ben wondered, raising an eyebrow, confused.

The Doctor, in his new form, smiled.

“Why...I'm The Doctor.”

-Colony 101: Market-

Erin continued to cry into Jason's shirt, not looking like she was going to stop anytime soon. Every now and then a word would come out, like “Sorry.” That was a frequent one.

“I'm so...sob...sorry!” Erin cried. Her emotions were going crazy. “I didn't...I didn't mean for this...I didn't...I tried...I did...I...”

She went back to crying.

Galv walked forward, bending down and taking a seat by Melanie, pulling her into a sideways hug, to try and comfort her.

“It's okay...she'll be fine...” Galv said quietly. He really did wish he could say something else, but he really couldn't come to Kanna's defense.

Ethan stepped forward, bending down and carefully picking up Kanna, bringing her to Rica's car. He was, after all, super strong, so carrying her wouldn't be to much of a problem for him.

-Republic Fringe Colony: City Center-

“Excuse me, Didymus, sir?” Jenny had appeared, and saluted Didymus, “I'm Jenny. The Doctor's daughter, and part of the Plumbers. I don't mean to intrude at the moment, but considering the recent Metarex attack...”

She paused, then drew herself up a little, “The Plumbers have an extensive network, considering we have members in most of the known species. In order to help prevent such an attack, I feel it would be in everyone's best interest if a Plumber could help. And considering I am the one with the most military-like experience, I'm best suited for this on our side.

“I understand completely if this is impossible, or you must consult with the higher ups first. And no matter the decision, The Plumbers will give any pertinent information we can find on the Metarex to the U.T.R.,” Jenny finished, then saluted once more.

Jason frowned and continued to pat the girl carefully on the back, no really knowing what to do or say in situations such as these. Girls were very emotion after all.

"Shh it's okay, really! No one's mad-Well Kanna will probably be, but she's always mad so it's okay! Don't worry!"

He looked over to Melanie as Galv sat comforting her. Luckily the girl wasn't crying like Erin was, but it did look pretty afraid as Ethan came over and picked her mother up. Jason watched carefully for a moment (just in case) before turning back to the sobbing girl on his shirt.

"Come' on Erin, we should all get back to the house....If Rica will still have us after the trouble my mom caused."

As he did this he couldn't help but to think of the perfect opportunity this gave him...The card and his cell phone still sat in his pocket--almost begging for the phone call to be made. He could accept the job and get out of the house all before Kanna even woke up....He'd just make sure everyone got back to the house safely.

The moment the group appeared in his view, chaos seemed to relax, at least momentarily. He sensed tension, still, but it was tension that was not yet lethal, and the group has made it safely back out of the colony. Glad to have had that particular issue resolved at the moment, chaos decided to stand back and watch for the moment, being rather discreet in his presence.

Looking over the rather ragtag group, chaos couldn't help but grin to himself. The four that came out of the Protoss Colony were a strange group indeed with abilities far beyond the norm. He did not personally know anyone here, except for maybe one, but he could SENSE the strange energies that flowed about him. In particular, this guy named Ben had a rather strange presence about him, a human presence with traces of alien. And not just one alien, but it seemed a sort of amalgamation. chaos would wait to satisfy his curiosity, however, because then he focused on the others.

A girl with a star marking under her right eye and a line leading downwards under her left... A soldier with curiously multicolored hair... And an android with red eyes and shocking-blue, long hair.

And it was the last one which he focused all of his attention on for a few seconds, watching, as if memorizing every movement.

[Protoss Templar Tower]

“Who is proving whose madness, Aldaris? You barge into my PRIVATE office with your soldiers, and accuse my guards of ambushing YOU? You are too set in the old ways, Aldaris. If we our to survive as a species, we must forgo the hatred between our peoples and work together. The Conclave understands this… and if they did not tell you, perhaps you are not as trusted as you think.”

Zeratul’s voice was cold. Unfortunately, there were many who thought like Aldaris; many from both the High and Dark Templar tribes. If Aldaris continued to make waves, Zeratul feared an inevitable civil war would erupt.

He looked to Ben, Eva and Jordan. “You should go now.”

Jordan looked over to Molly. She had suggested the same thing as Zeratul, and he nodded quickly.

“Yeah, let’s get back to the Arrow and fast…”

KOS-MOS, meanwhile, suddenly felt something stir. A presence she had not felt in a long time… one she could not quite place in her memory.

When they went outside and ran into the new group, Jordan was confused. He had heard from Ben that the Doctor had died, and yet someone was standing in front of them claiming to be that person.

Jordan groaned. This could not be good. Even if this ‘Doctor’ was not hostile, he was delaying their leaving… and from the look of those Protoss, that wasn’t good.

KOS-MOS, meanwhile, looked to the small boy with white hair. The android took a step forward, suddenly forgetting all about the trouble her presence on the colony was causing. She looked at chaos for several seconds before she spoke.

“… We have met… haven’t we?” KOS-MOS asked.

[Colony 101: Market]

Felix just shook his head at the entire situation. The day had gone from crazy, to fun and back to crazy with a splash of violent added in.

Rica, however, just shrugged his shoulders and he opened the car doors. “Alright, everybody in. We might as well get back while she’s still unconscious.”

Of course, there were several people and not enough room in the car. So Rica made a choice. “I’ll catch up with you… I should probably buy some extra liquor for Kanna anyway, lord knows she’ll want it when she wakes up.”

It was hard to tell if he was joking or not.

[Republic Fringe Colony: City Center]

Sama looked up to see Didymus and at that moment he was tempted to curse so profusely that even the trained soldiers all around him would have blushed. Still, he bit his tongue and swallowed the expletives. His day was getting worse by the moment.

He was about to step forward and face the music when Quistis mentioned something that hit him like a ton of bricks. An even heavier ton of bricks than what he had already been hit by, anyway.

“Rinoa?” Sama gasped, twisting his head around so fast his neck made an audible pop. “… Ha…”

He actually smiled for a moment. It would be worth a court-martial just to see the look on Fury Caraway’s face if he found out his daughter was running through a war-zone. He wondered if the rumors he had heard were true…

Then, he looked over to Didymus and his smile fell. “I did what I had to do. Now you do what you have to do.”

He shrugged. “That’s it.”

"We shall see." was all Aldaris said in reply to Zeratul. He could go on and on with him (they had had heated discussions lasting hours before), but instead, he simply exited, with his entourage.

He would speak to the conclave...

Republic fringe colony-city center

Didymus regarded Sama.

Then, he grabbed him, firmly, and dragged him to a window.

"Look." he said. "Take a good, long look at that."

The city was ruined. It truly did look like a the stereotypical urban war zone from the era.

"I gave you an order. You disobeyed it. That is NOT doing "what you have to do". In your mech, you may have helped prevent some of this. I somewhat relented, as I was too busy to take a good look at your position, and as such, there will be no official repercussions for you...however, again, take a good, long look here. THIS is what we're up against. THIS is what our enemy wants. To prevent this, we must work together. You're off the hook, officially, this time, but the next time you disobey a direct order simply because of your own personal appraisal of the situation, there will be consequences. More, that is."

He let him go.

"Now tour the city, I'd suggest, to get a better look at what we're up against, here. I'm going to do so myself..."

With that, he turned towards Jenny.

"I believe that we can't take you on board. We've got irregular guests anyway, and we're on a tight campaign regimen. We can't afford to get side-tracked or diverted. You are welcome to travel to combat zones we participate in if you so choose, but we can't take you aboard. Civilian aid from other cities on this planet should be arriving soon. You can probably hitch a ride with them."

With that, he turned to leave.

Quistis, in spite of the situation, cracked a slight, slight grin.

"How rude, Sama. Do you intend to leave without introducing us?" she said.

[Republic Fringe Colony: City Center]

Sama was shaking. There was so much going on, and a mountain of problems was piling up on him. Too many things were buzzing through his mind… the Metarex, SeeD, his old friends, his new ones… finally, he just snapped.

“Don’t lecture me about what we’re supposed to be protecting!” Sama yelled loudly, clenching his fists. “What about the children in the school who might have been mowed down by those things? What about the hostages in this center who might have been killed? My mech WAS fighting those things, but I made a decision that I could do more good here.”

He shook his head again. This was all too much. “The DSK was able to provide support on its own, and I was able to make a difference on the ground. I’d make the same decisions again, SIR.”

He was livid. There seemed to be no way out of all this and it seemed that no matter what he did there was not a good outcome.

Sama looked to Quistis for a moment, and there was no sign of amusement in his face. He just wanted to get out of there, but at that moment…


“Are you actually criticizing someone else, Mr. Colonel? Considering how SLOW the response from the Republic was, you should be the first one on the court-martial list!”

A harsh female voice spoke from the doorway. A young woman in blue was standing at the door, and on either side of her were her companions.

Rinoa Heartilly had finally arrived. She had her arms crossed. “Gee, we all knew the Republic didn’t care enough about the Fringe colonies to keep enough troops here, but you’d think you’d care enough about your image to get here a little faster. Oh well, these guys were just fringers, so who cares if they get slaughtered?”

Rinoa’s speech would likely not go over well in a room full of Republic troops. Some of the marines might even question how she’d gotten in. That was a very good question.

“First the Forum gets blown up, and now a fringe colony is laid to waste! Real top notch job lately, guys.” Rinoa said with sarcasm dripping.


“Just stop, Rinoa.” Sama stepped forward suddenly. “The Republic ships got here as quickly as they could. No one wanted to see this colony destroyed.”

Rinoa stared at him for a moment with a hand on her hip. “… I thought you were working for Philanthropy, what are you even doing here?”

Sama shook his head. “It’s a long, confusing story… and it’s got nothing to do with my point. The Republic arrived as soon as they could… and besides, the fleet was delayed by an obnoxious Admiral. We SHOULD have been here sooner, but that idiot…” He trailed off.

Rinoa crossed her arms. “… Lame excuse, but whatever… this colony’s toast. I just hope you guys get your stuff together before the next one is attacked.”

Rinoa then turned and looked to Jenny. “I overheard… but I guess that’s kind of obvious by now… you can get a ride with us, if you want.”

Cyborg and Beast Boy exchanged glances.

“… We’re going to get arrested, aren’t we Vic?” Beast Boy asked.
“Naw. You know the boss… she’ll find a way out of it.” Cyborg reassured him.

Didymus' eyes narrowed at Sama. He had scolded him, yes, but he had let him off the hook!

"THAT will not be tolerated, however." he was about to say. He was about to debate Sama, tell him about how the children were protected by the marines, that the spec ops team could have rescued the hostages, point out that his skills in the DSK could have saved lives that had been lost-

-but then Rinoa arrived.

Didymus paused, regarding her intently.

"Have we met?" he asked.

"And this colony is far from "toast"." he said. "The invaders only focused on this one city. And yes, our delay is regrettable. I suppose you didn't hear about how the Fourth Fleet arrived in time to prevent any damage to the colony it was guarding?

Then, Sama stepped forward.

There were so many points that Rinoa made he could debate.

"We only have so many, and it is tragic that we arrived so late. In fact, I was going to tour the ruins to see what our enemy represents, sot that my drive to prevent it was increased. We WERE delayed by an admiral, and if you didn't notice, when we arrived, the rate of civilian casualties shot down, and eventually stopped altogether. If not for our arrival, this ENTIRE colony would indeed have been wiped out, most likely, but we DID arrive, however late, and repelled the attack with only major damage to this city, the other two main cities on this planet were untouched."

"And...Sama? You two...ball date? Who are these people...?" he asked. He already didn't like Rinoa, and something was familiar about her...the tone of her voice, this anti-Republic sentiment she had...ruins, marines, bodies...he suddenly had a case of deja vu.

Jason helped Erin into the car, turning to Melanie to do the same for her. He looked back at her and frowned a bit. The girl still looked horribly bothered by it all, but he know she would be fine...

But for now he had made up his mind about something. The raven haired boy walked over to his sister and Galv, stopping next to Melanie and leaning down. quickly he bent down and gave the girl a quick kiss on the top of the head before pulling Galv off to the side.

"I'm cashing in my favor. I need to...Go somewhere for a bit and need you to cover for me, that and take care of Melanie for a bit. Won't be long, but it's really important"

"I'm sorry about my mom....Really sorry...She didn't hurt you did she?"
