Earth


Diner

The food finally came and Kanna took her coffee without a word, still attempting to think of a conversation topic that would not eventually turn to her or her obvious lack of a significant other (a void they both wished to fill). She was still very new to this whole 'being social' thing, this being the most people she had been around in years.

Kanna blankly took a long drink of her coffee, before pausing and coughing.

Entirely too hot.

Ow.

'I am an idiot'

Streets

Melanie nodded "Don't worry, i'm sure you'll have more than just me. You're awesome! It'll be really easy for you to fit in!"

Jason smiled at Erin "Normal is good...But hard to come by. But i'm sure you'll do fine." he then looked at them all "But guys don't get too excited yet....We still have a trial to get through okay?"

Melanie frowned a bit and looked at Galv, squeezing his hand "I'm sure it won't be that bad...They'll just ask Galv some questions and stuff right?"

She really had no idea what went on in procedures such as those.

[Mobius Orbit]

Sama hated to place defense… then, that wasn’t a secret; he had already been very vocal in his complaints about the Republic’s strategy as a whole. Still, there was not much he could do at the moment, so he and Asuka held back, waiting on the Metarex fleet and Eggman’s fleet.

[Acorn Palace]

Samus shook her head.

“To be perfectly honest, I don’t give a damn about your politics, your highness. I’m trying to keep you alive. Those things that are on their way to attack you – they can and HAVE wiped out entire colonies. There’s really no telling what the true extent of their forces are. If you won’t leave, I’ll do what I can to keep you alive here – but your odds go down and your enemy’s odds go up.”

Outside

Vash turned to Sonic and rubbed the back of his neck.

“If I can help somehow, just say the word, okay?”

[Zohar]

Rinoa crossed her arms, and then jumped up on a large slab of debris and held a hand in the air dramatically.

“Of course I want to follow the fleet! It’s my big chance, Quisty! We’re going to blast those Metarex freaks! Think about it, if a small group like mine can stop those things, it’ll help my cause! Most of the colonies let themselves get treated the way they do because they depend on the Republic – if we can show that humanity can fight its enemies without help from Earth…”

Yes. Now Rinoa was planning on stopping the entire Metarex threat. By herself.

Gotta love her. Or not.

Selphie paused, and then clapped. “Sure! I’ll come along! I’ve gotten some medical training – that’s why I was helping out like this – so I’m sure I could be useful!”

[Earth]

Rica had gone back to being quiet. He had been troubled since they arrived on Earth – which is handy, since GS has had little for him to do. XD

[Azmuth’s Firefly]

KOS-MOS opened the door, looking to the owner of the ship and the friend she could hardly remember. Burke was dead (?) but the fallout (XD) of what he had done was still very active to the android.

“… I have no plans.” She answered them truthfully. KOS-MOS had spent most of her life locked in a satellite with no idea who or what she was. She went for answered, and ended up in a fight, and the one man who knew the secrets of her past appeared to be dead.

She hesitated, and looked to chaos. “… I would like to stay with you, if it is not an inconvenience.”

[…]

Jordan, meanwhile, shrugged and looked at the group. It seemed to always be the same between Don and his daughter. He really wondered when Don would just learn to give up.

“There's lots of adventures on Earth too,” Ben said, “Just because it's home doesn't mean it's not exciting.”

“Ben has a point… we might find something fun to do on earth.” Jordan agreed.

The metarex fleet, already engaged with Eggman, was certainly shaken up by Nova's attack, but still steady. As a flurry of shots returned back at the NL Apocalypse, so too did their fleet intermingle with Eggman's even more...it was becoming a savage space melee (if "melee" is really a proper term to describe a battle fought with shooting weapons. Still, close range. XD).


Oh dear... Didymus thought, seeing that attack. THOSE people...at least they're helping...

Suddenly, a transmission was sent, in private, to Asuka and Sama.

"Listen up..." Didymus' voice. "....TerrInt just sent me an update on our enemy. Sama, you wanted a chance to bite back? We may get one. What intel we've gathered suggests that the enemy's rank-and-file are controlled by a group of generals whose orders they obey unquestioningly. Our hacking attempts, and the amount of enemy comms traffic we're picking up here, indicates that one of those generals is present here in the Mobius system."

"EarthCom wants it alive, or intact, as the case may be, if possible. If it shows itself, you two are going to be our scalpel that will excise him from his forces and bring him disabled and harmless to ours. Keep your eyes open, and I'll be watching for it. Understood?"

Acorn Palace

Sally was indignant. She glared up at Samus, at tried to look intimidating (being less than four feet tall, she probably wasn't, not to Samus, at least).

"YOU may not care about our politics..." she said. "...but this is a matter of House honor! I'm tired of being seen as a weak queen! What good will my survival do if my House is shamed off the throne anyway?!"

Sally was finally losing her composure.

"I KNOW those things have wiped out colonies! That's why I'm so baffled at the Hedgehog rebels! THEY don't seem to realize that our survival is at stake here! If you have been sent to ensure my safety, I thank you, but just do it! I am AWARE of the risks of staying here, my mind is already made up!" she said.

Zohar

Quistis inwardly facepalmed.

"Okay..." she said. Maybe, if things didn't go as Rinoa hoped, she'd see reason and realize her plans were (still) rarely good ideas or well-thought-out (she'd have thought that Rinoa would have learned that lesson in the Fornax Insurrection, but here they were). Or maybe she'd see reason, but they'd be in so much trouble it would make little difference.

She sighed.

"Alright..." she said. "...the fleet was headed towards Mobius, I think. They're probably engaged by now."

She shrugged. At least she was with some of her old friends.

Two other shady figures were in the small diner each located nearby Kanna and Ethan. At one table, Captain Tarma Roving sat, munching quietly on some bacon. His eggs lay to one side, untouched, and his glass of orange juice was nearly empty. He was called earlier by the Army and told that he was too be ready in case he was needed. His appetite seemed to have decreased since then.

The captain was more than ready for action. His service gun lay in it's holster at his side secured and ready, along with his knife. He wore his sunglasses with pride and he was dressed in his casual clothing. He had been on leave for several months, taking some time off and building some motorcycles in his time. He had become famous for his status as a "war hero." But since the Metarex attack, he was called to be ready. The captain himself couldn't wait for action.

At the other table, a Mobian sat. A weasel Mobian. He too was armed, and his hat lay over his eyes. He was a bounty hunter who had also become famous, but in a different way than Tarma. He had a rep for "getting rid of things". But he was better known to villains and gangs than normal bystanders. Nack liked it that way. Villains did pay better. He considered heading back to Mobius to collect the bounty on Sally Acorn's head. But hesitated after hearing the Metarex went there to attack. And a civil war broke out. He probably wouldn't get into the palace easily.

So instead, he sat there, sipping his coffee slowly, his fingers tapping on the table rhythmically.

((Vidit, AGoI, if either of you two have other military things, Tarma's open. Also, for anyone who wants to hire a bounty, Fang/Nack is open. Wily and Bass will prolly be introduced later. I think that does it.))

The NL Apocalypse sped right through, just blasting its way right through the flank and getting fire returned at it. By the time the ship busted out the other side of the Metarex Fleet's flank, its shields were down to a rather low 28%, and Sechs took to maneuvering and evasive tactics to avoid the worst of enemy fire, the shields beginning to quickly recharge. At this point, charging the Solar Lance was suicide due to the amount of time and energy needed to charge up a shot, but the lance already did its work. The biggest of the Metarex Ships sported a large hole in the hull, the blast having gone right through the ship's shields and the ship itself, lancing on through a pair of carriers (and destroying one of them), and continued on to destroying a few small craft and damaging another carrier.

However, most of the attention was now turning to the little present the Apocalypse left behind. The black mech, flaring red once every few seconds was dodging and weaving through the Metarex with a quickness that was difficult to match. In fact, more often than not, the mech was only recognized by a flare of red light and its huge thruster flares. And it was literally right in the center of all the melee, getting close-up to ships and hacking away at them with a pair of red-aura-trailing blades that seemed to cut right through armor like a hot knife through butter. The mech was never in one place for more than a few seconds, and was still moving strong and quick, with minimal damage done to it at the time. It was taking out targets one by one, moving on steadily and methodically...

It was quite a sight.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Azmuth's Firefly

“… I would like to stay with you, if it is not an inconvenience.”

chaos's return smile couldn't be brighter. This solidified his resolve to stay even further, and he was already quite sure that if something would keep him from KOS-MOS, it was quite possibly the only thing that could really stop anyone who refuses to give up. Death.

"I have only just now found you again, KOS-MOS. I am not planning on leaving you alone in any way, and you would probably have to keep me away with a stick or weapon of some sort. I will be glad for your company again."

He gave a look at Azmuth then his face full of amusement. "So it appears that both KOS-MOS and myself have nowhere we need to go at the moment, so we shall probably go wherever the winds of fate take us. If you need any of my aid, I shall offer it freely, but if KOS-MOS refuses, I shall follow her. That is my decision."

(Waiting on other scenes, but for now...)

Earth

A communique, sent between Republic agents.

"In position. Stand by, this may or may not get ugly. We've got you covered, point men."

As Melanie and Galv continued their conversing, a pair of men walked over to them.

"Agent Galv? We're from TerrInt. We've come to take you to witness at a trial..."

The other man figited.

Suddenly, he grabbed Melanie, and slapped a pair of handcuffs on her!

"Melanie Rose Narroh, you are under arrest on charges of attacking a Republic soldier at the urging of individuals engaged in active resistance to arrest." he said.

"Please don't try anything funny." said the first agent. "Snipers were moving into position before we approached you. You can probably TRY something...but there's no guarantee they'd miss..." his voice trailed off. Arresting little girls? Not exactly what he pictured being in TerrInt would be like.

Earth

"I'm sure whatever they do it'll be fine" Jason reassured his little sister as they continued walking, a nice resturant coming up in the distance. Melanie swung her and Galv's arm idlily as they continued on and Json watched them both. Eating would be nice...

They didn't get that chance though, instead Melanie stopped dead in her tracks as two men in uniform approached the group. She looked up at them, frowning and clutching Galv's hand.

"Agent Galv? We're from TerrInt. We've come to take you to witness at a trial..."

Melanie's grip tightened and she frowned at them. They wanted him now? They had only been here for a short time.

Then the other man grabbed her (poor Melanie once again felt like a rag doll) and the girl stumbled forward with a yelp. Her hands were cuffed behind her and Jason stepped forward.

"HEY. Leave her alone!" He exclaimed, narrowing his eyes at both men, ready to leap forward for his baby sister.

"Snipers were moving into position before we approached you. You can probably TRY something...but there's no guarantee they'd miss..."

....That definitely stopped him. He hesitated and Melanie struggled against the officer's bounds.

"Lemme go!" She yelled.

"She's just a kid!" Jason reasoned, still glaring "What kind of guy does that?!!? Pathetic excuse for a man" He glanced around, wondering if there actually were snipers...

Diner

Ethan paused, looking up at Kanna as he chewed his waffles thoughtfully, “Are you alright? Need anything?”

He did seem concerned.

Park/Wandering

As Melanie was grabbed, Galv moved, instinctively sparking and launching at the man. It was instincts.

Thankfully, Samuel had better ones.

He grabbed Galv as he leaped, and electricity coursed through Samuel. It didn't hurt him, but Galv was confused. What had happened?

“Calm down...” Samuel muttered, placing Galv down, speaking to both Galv and Jason.

Erin looked very worried now, trying to make herself seem smaller then she really was, hiding behind Jason.

Aiden also looked worried, glancing to Felix.

“I would suggest taking the cuffs off of a thirteen year old girl, unless you'd like to handle me,” Samuel now said, stepping forward to the two agents, “I don't think your snipers are going to have much luck with me...”

He glared at the two, “We'll all come quietly...Just let the girl go here. She won't make a run for it.”

-Azmuth's Firefly-

“Well then...” Azmuth grinned, looking up at chaos and KOS-MOS, “I have an offer for both of you. As you know, I am co-commander of the Plumbers. We're an organization dedicated to trying to keep peace...We could...always use more members.”

He smiled, “What do you say? Will you two join the Plumbers? I promise we won't split you two up as well, unless we get your permission.”

Kitchen

“Or, heck, you guys were pretty cool on Zohar. If you want, I'm sure I can get you guys part of the Plumbers!” Ben smiled. He had no idea that Don would probably go crazy at that idea...And not in the good way.

-Mobius Orbit-

Most of Eggman's fleet had not engaged with the Metarex, but was hanging back, waiting.

“What are those darn U.T.R. members waiting for?” Eggman scowled. “They have an opening to attack those Metarex!”

He punched in a few keys, and was soon sending a message to the U.T.R. Of course, it was an open communication, so anyone could hear it.

“U.T.R.! Get over here and fight them already! I'm not here to do all of your work! If I do, I better get some kind of reward!” he yelled, then barked out more orders, closing his outgoing signal.

Metal Sonic, meanwhile, was moving through the fleet, heading for the main ship...His small size made him nigh unseeable on radar, and his speed, made him difficult to see with the naked eye...

-Acorn Palace-

Outside

“Hmmm...” Sonic paused, then snapped his fingers, “That's right...communications stuff is inside...”

Sonic turned to the guards, “Hey, when do you think we can get in? I...need to talk to Sally.”

Earth

One of the agents looked to Jason.

"Sorry, kid, it's not our call. We're just doing out jobs."

The other looked to Samuel.

"You know, I may be willing to pretend I didn't see what your little friend just tried to pull...but Samuel," he said, revealing that TerrInt had done its homework, "PLEASE, this is Earth. We keep a good watch. Our snipers in and of themselves may be rather ineffective on you...but there are other ways of bringing you down."

A bit of wire extended from the agent's wristwatch. He held it CIA choke-wire style, then lowered it.

"Please, we don't want a scene. But we've got a job to do." he said.

Mobius orbit

Didymus grinned, watching the metarex fleet get harassed, and engaging Eggman's fleet.

When Eggman's transmission came through...well, that was what he was grinning about.

"Just ignore him" were his orders, and he passed those along to the rest of the fleet.

Eggman was wanted for aiding the rebel cause during the Fornax Insurrection, but the Republic was focusing on the metarex. Catching Eggman could wait.

If he got devastated in battle with ANOTHER enemy to the Republic...no one at EarthCom saw too much reason to complain.

Outside Acorn Palace

The guards shifted uneasily, and one spoke.

"Um...not certain that's a good idea, Sonic...Sally may not be too happy to see you, and she's kind of got her hands full right now." he said.

"Stop it! Leave us alone" Melanie exclaimed, still struggling in attempt to release her hands.

"Mel, stop, you're gonna hurt yourself" Jason ordered. Melanie hesitated and calmed down, she shifting uncomfortably with her hands behind her. Jason let out a breath and looked to the two men "We'll go, but just letting you know as soon as our mom realizes this is how you treated her daughter you will regret it. Think permanently snapped spine and dislocated heads...That's Kanna.

Jason then looked to Samuel....He had a feeling this wouldn't end well.


Diner

Kanna shook her head, now blowing her coffee until it was cool enough to take another drink from. Something felt off...She could feel her children...Something was weird.

Kanna blinked and sat down her coffee, looking out the window. It felt like Melanie, it usually was...She couldn't tell what was up, only that her emotions were changing. She couldn't tell if it was extremely happy or sad.

"God, I think i'm going crazy..." Kanna mumbled

“Yah, I did see what he did...Try to defend the girl he likes,” Samuel scowled. He glanced to the choke wire, and paused. His face went to a grin, but went back to the scowl. Best not to show all his cards.

“Fine then. Look like idiots arresting a five foot tall girl,” Samuel shrugged, “Ohhh, look at the big bad agents, grabbing a girl...”

He huffed, folding his arms over his chest. Galv still wanted to hurt them though, his hair was standing on end.

“I'm coming then...You better be nice to her too, or you're not going to get any testimony from me...Besides I thought the charges were dropped against her...” Galv said, then walked over to Melanie. He didn't care if the guards didn't like it. He placed his hand on Melanie's shoulder, leaning in.

“It's going to be okay...I won't let them hurt you...And if they try something, get them as well,” Galv whispered...Though wasn't to quiet about it. He was there for Melanie. Not the U.T.R.

Diner

“You've been through a lot. You're not going crazy. Believe me, I was crazy once. Some would say I still am,” Ethan smiled at Kanna, “And are you alright?”

He glanced outside, “Worried about your kids?...Samuel's a protector...I wouldn't be too worried, but if you want to check on them, we can.”

-Mobius Orbit-

Eggman scowled, as the U.T.R. made no move. Maybe...

His fleet began to move...going closer to the U.T.R. He wasn't heading straight for them, but up and over. If the Metarex were going to attack them, he was going to make sure they'd be charging at the U.T.R. as well!

-Outside Acorn Palace-

“Hmmm...got a point there...Give me a moment,” Sonic said, then seemed to vanished.

There was yelling in the distance. A pause, then more yelling. This went on for about a couple minutes, until Sonic returned.

“Well I took care of a couple riots. We should hopefully have some people out and about turning their anger to any Metarex who might come,” Sonic said, “I think there's a few more out there too...”

Kanna considered it, fiddling with her coffee mug a bit and staring out the window. Finally she let out a breath and shook her head.

"No...Jason's there, they'll be fine" She decided, a bit hesitant.

Streets

Melanie turned at Galv's hand, trying to offer him a small smile while still trying to release her hands. She still understand what she was being tried with, all she knew was she was in trouble for being with Galv before at NERV's headquarters...

It was totally worth it though...

"Galv can stay with me right?" she asked, behind the girl her hands glowed dimly.

"I'll have to call our mother" Jason alerted the two men, glaring at Galv a bit. If there really were snipers around he didn't want the boy doing anything hasty "She's close by...And will have to know about this. Won't be happy though, especially if you don't let Melanie go."

“If you're sure,” Ethan said, then glanced to his plate, “Would you like some waffles? I have plenty.”

He smiled, “Waffles are good for alleviating one's fear. And these are quite delicious.”

Streets

Galv smiled at Melanie. He could probably break the cuffs with a spark. Melanie could probably break them with her darkness abilities as well. But that wasn't the point.

“They better let me stay with you...If they want me to cooperate...” Galv said, glaring at the agents again.

As Jason mentioned his mother, Samuel groaned inwardly. He knew she'd blame him for this. Even though he didn't even know that Melanie had a record.

Erin continued to look nervous. If one of the agents made any sudden moves towards her, she'd probably startle...

She was worried they were going to try and arrest her as well.

One of the agents nodded.

"Look, we're sorry,neither of us are particularly thrilled about arresting a 13-year-old girl, but orders are orders. And this is Earth. It's important we keep a close eye on things around here. As for sticking together...for now, at least. And yes, you can get your parents or guardians...we're aware enough about them."

The other agent simply nodded. Yes, Kanna was known to have...outbursts. But these men were TerrInt operatives (and were actually wearing combat suits under their outer clothing), covered by Terran Guard snipers...they were confident of their position.

Jason flipped open his phone, dialed a short number and then waited. This was NOT going to be pretty....

"....For now?" Melanie said dejected. She didn't like the sound of that....

Kanna shook her head at the offer for food, and instead took a long drink of her coffee that was now cool enough to partake in. Suddenly her phone vibrated and Kanna blinked. She dug into her purse and produced a small phone.

"Jason?"

"Kanna....You might want to get over here..."

........

Jason said something through the phone. Then silence....Then a Kanna freak out....She jumped from the table, spilling her coffee.

"WHAT?!?!"
