[TRS Crusader] Sama frowned. Didymus knew far more about Rinoa than he had hoped he would. It was a conflicting topic for the young man… on the one hand; neither Rinoa nor her father could really stand Sama because of the past. (The story will be written, just have to focus on SK&WS at the moment ^^;). On the other hand, he still felt a sense of loyalty to them both. “… Her name is Rinoa, she’s Caraway’s daughter.” Sama admitted with a small sigh. “You’re right; she was involved in a lot of rebel activities in the past. Caraway gave up nearly everything for her. He pleaded with the higher-ups to spare her, and eventually they came to an agreement… but he lost a lot. If he had let Rinoa be arrested, he could have been one of the highest-ranked Generals in the Republic by now.” He shook his head. “Instead, Caraway’s career is stalled. He’ll probably never raise another rank… but he has enough clout left to still be an important guy. Hell, I didn’t know he was involved with Philanthropy, but it looks like he is…” He rubbed the back of his neck. “Anyway, I’d just steer clear of Rinoa if I were you. She’s trouble everywhere she goes. Cute, but trouble.” [NL Apocalypse] Rica rolled his eyes to Ethan and gave a small smirk. “If she wanted to break my legs, she can do a much better job than you.” He then looked over to Jason and nodded to the boy. “I understand this is all very strange, but your mother is a person like any other. Is it really so wrong for her to find happiness?” […] Felix felt that blush twinge back into his cheeks when he realized that Aiden was standing right next to him. He coughed a bit, but turned his attention to Jagan as he spoke. “I’d love to learn some more, sir. Although I have to admit, I do have a pretty good sense of control over my powers… but obviously I’m not so good at the physical side of it at this moment.” He grinned a bit. [Azmuth’s Firefly/Yeerk Ship] Kevin noticed Visser Three seemed to be changing, morphing to something different. He raised an eyebrow… Kevin knew a thing or two about morphing into other forms. He could change his body into different materials, and once upon a time he could do even more than that. However, before he could do much he was blasted with a laser beam and thrown back to the ground. His chest was smoking a bit and he was feeling some pain; but he was fine at the same time. He stood up and charged at the Hork Bajir that was blasting at him. Luckily, Adamantium is the hardest substance known to man (well, I don’t know if that’s true in this universe, but I’m going by common fiction properties) and Kevin could survive a lot when his body was made from this ultra-hard metal! “Come on, is that all you’ve got!?” Kevin roared, punching at the shooter. Jordan, meanwhile, was staying close to Molly. She was not one for combat and he wasn’t about to charge blindly into danger and leave her without someone to keep her safe from these… things. He was, however, shooting at the bad guys! |

(WHAT THE CRUD IS ADAMANTIUM DOING HERE?! O_o) T.R.S. Crusader-Didymus' quarters Didymus took it all in. It was a shock. "Wow..." he said. "...well, I appricieate your honesty...and let me ask you this: did you know she was a would-be assassin, avid rebel, and all around...ahem...annoyance...BEFORE or AFTER you asked to escort her? And...how the heck did Caraway not get canned? You say he worked something out with the higher-ups? You mean, this went up to EarthCom and the presidency? Because I'd think a would-be governor's assassin who did all those other things out of uniform...frankly, I was expecting she'd receive the death penalty for high treason." he said. He shook his head. "And trouble? Yeah, I know. I'm thinking I'd prefer Soryu's company to hers, and you know how SHE makes me. I told you, I had a rather nasty conversation with her when we took her in at the Garden. Again, well..." he smirked, but sighed. "Again, not even Soryu was as...um...full of attitude...as she was. Although to her credit, Soryu MAY be getting better..." "..but I digress. Still, my questions stand..." he said. "...and if she's that much trouble...why is she still being allowed to roam free...she didn't sound very satisfied with states of affairs as they were, and such "troublesome" girls can be problematic..." |

(It's making a cameo, Vidit. You should know by now we all make references with things. Be glad it's not Unobtainium.)-Nova's Ship- Ethan couldn't help but smile slightly at Jason. He was very protective. He glanced to Kanna though, thinking. He too would like a chance to talk to her, but he wouldn't pull her into a closet to do so. Erin nodded meekly to Jason, still hiding behind him, afraid of Kanna...Of course, once they were away from Kanna, she'd probably want to resume their closet finding exercise... [. . .] “Alright then!” Galv grinned, “We'll all do this together then! I never really had a teacher who could properly explain using powers before...Had to figure it out for myself.” He smiled towards Melanie again, looking confident that Melanie could prove herself. -Visser Three's Blade Ship- The force chaos shot missed, Visser Three's form falling to the ground, hitting an Gedd... Red liquid then shot up from the ground where Visser Three had been, moving under it's own power, going at chaos! Visser Three had morphed into a red liquid creature! Which he actually did once in the books. ![]() The Yeerks were being assaulted, but several Taxxons skittered forward, chomping the air hungrily, smelling the new meat. They had their own Dracon beams, several firing at Gwen! Ben curled into a ball, deflecting some shots, then rolled forward to smash into more Yeerks! There were a lot of opponents though... -Tamarian Space- “This is why I had rebelled...The so called leaders giving orders from afar, not realizing what actually happens in these outer colonies...They think that they can win wars without losing people...That it can be innocent. A naïve thought...No war can be fought without sacrifices...” “...Understood...” is what he said though, and went back to directing the forces. It was something he was very good at, after all. “I fought against the U.T.R. because of this. We're held back, always having to refer to the same thought, the same line of thinking...We as a species can't progress like this...” Peterson thought. He activated his Geloog's close combat weapon, spinning the energy blade around and flying forward, slicing through one of the approaching Metarex mechs. “Maybe it's too late to fight it...” Peterson thought, shouting out orders as he fought, the controls old and familiar to him. “But I still have to open their eyes...Just this time...It won't be through violence...” At least he hoped it wouldn't be. |

[NL Apocalypse] “I understand this is all very strange, but your mother is a person like any other. Is it really so wrong for her to find happiness?” Jason turned quickly at Rica, eyes narrowed and sporting a look that rivaled his mother's usual glare. He was definitely Kanna's child. "You stay out of this!" Jason exclaimed staring down the older man. "And stay off of Kanna! You've been around for what? Two days!" "Jason!" Kanna yelled "Shut your mouth!" "You are SUCH a hypocrite!" He yelled back at his mother "You freak when Mel is even looking at Galv and your playing around is an EFFING CLOSET!" "Shut your mouth before I do it for you!" Kanna yelled back. The battle between the two was no letting up, neither wanted to stop. "I'm not explaining myself to you or your sister!" "Not like you could-GAH!" Jason had to dodge as a a glowing fist came at him. -Visser Three's Blade Ship- Gwen threw her hands up, sending a sheet of pink energy in front of her, shielding her from the blasts that Ben wasn't able to deflect. "Thanks Ben!" She yelled, sending the wave of energy forward! |

-Nova's Ship- Kanna was fighting Jason, and Erin stepped backwards. “No...Don't...don't hurt him...” Erin muttered. Ethan stepped forward suddenly, grabbing Kanna's arm, and holding the other one up to Jason. “You. Go with the girl. Find some other closet or something,” Ethan said, then turned to Kanna, still holding her arm, “Kanna, stop and think. Do you really want to hurt your son?” Ethan did pause for a second, realizing he was attempting to act as a peacekeeper, something very unusual for him. “...He's a kid. He's been through a lot,” Ethan continued, “You're both very high strung right now. If you need to work off some energy, then find someone else to punch. It's not right for adults like us to pick on kids. “If you need someone to punch, you can punch me. I know about stress. I've been the adult of the family before as well. I understand your emotions, but I know you wouldn't want to cut your son from your life,” Ethan finished, “Just think...please...” |

NL Apocalypse Jagan looked just the same as ever, stoic and curt, but inside he was satisfied. Just like Galv and others, he had to figure out his powers himself when he got them, but he had a long time to figure them out, practice them, and gain enough knowledge about them. The fact that the special abilities humans possessed often came from the very same source only helped. So, it was time to begin instruction. "Then we shall begin." He clicked something on his own watch, and wrote something quickly, before putting away the holographic screen and raising both hands. Then, he seemed to stand at attention, back straight, looking over all three critically, hands behind his back. "Whether it is combat that I will aid you in or specific abilities, both of those areas will be taught by the calm mind. Our powers stem from a part of the brain that we are not used to controlling, and thus it often eludes us in everyday life. Thus, the main area in which I shall be able to offer my aid is discipline and focus. "One's focus always wanders. It is human nature to flow from a thought to another thought, like connecting strings to one another. What you will do while I am here is focus on only the goal in mind. Once you achieve focus and direction, your discovery and manipulation of any of your abilities shall become a much easier task." He then motioned for Galv to take position opposite of himself. "Let me make an example. Galv, correct? Attack me. Whether you hold back or do not hold back makes no difference for the purpose of this demonstration. Use any attack you wish, even your specific ability if you wish. I advise against area-affecting abilities, however, since you have others in this room I doubt you would wish to harm." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Azmuth’s Firefly/Yeerk Ship chaos ducked out of the way as another few blasts followed him, rolling and making himself generally scarce. Well, until he regained his bearings and again rejoined the fray. He remembered that his job was to play support, and so he had. The burn mark on Kevin's chest quickly disappeared, and once it did, a feather seemed to float out of the wound, dissipating in mid-air once its energy was not required. chaos again molded a ball, but this one was much bigger, roughly the size of a basketball. chaos continued to spin his hands around the ball of kinetic force, feathers layering into the ball's field, making it look like a localized whirlwind of feathers. Then, he made a diving roll again, coming to land right in front of Visser Three's new form and throwing the ball forward. This ball, however, would dissipate the moment it came in contact with anything, creating an expanding sphere of kinetic force that was likely to throw anyone who came in contact with it away from the ball itself. chaos himself was completely unaffected due top his wings, and those behind him were unaffected as well, protecting most, if not all of the group from the force of the ball. |

NL Apocalypse Melanie stepped back a bit, ready to watch the demonstration, mentally taking notes in her head again. She wasn't sure if she could remember all that she was learning but if she did she would make an amazing fighter with time. "Good luck Galv" she called out with a smile. [...] Kanna whipped around when Ethan grabbed her arm, managing to hit the man rather than her son. Okay. So she really hadn't meant to do that. But he DID get in her way. "Let me go" She said through clenched teeth. Jason took Erin's arm and pulled her down the hall. He was obviously pissed, wanting to punch certain people in the face. "Come on, let them pick up where they left off" he muttered bitterly. He needed to punch a wall....Or yell into a pillow or something. |

-Nova's Ship- “Focus...I have that...” Galv thought to himself, stepping in front of Jagan, listening. “And thank you Melanie. I don't think this guy will really hurt me. We're not sparring.” Galv's hair began to stand up on end, holding his right hand up, electricity sparking in it. “Since this is a demonstration, I'll keep it simple,” Galv said, then shifted his legs, his entire body sparking slightly. He took careful aim, then shot forward, pulling back his fist, his electricity shooting forward from it at Jagan! It wasn't his strongest attack, by far, and he was holding back. Of course, this was just a demonstration. [. . .] Ethan was punched, and he let go of Kanna. “...Not bad of a punch,” he said, “You could do better by shifting your stance.” He stared at her, then took a step back, “Next time, move your entire body with your arm. Use your momentum to follow through with the attack, and you can land a much more effective blow.” Yes, Ethan was just punched...and then explained to Kanna how she could punch him more effectively. It was probably his way of telling a joke and lightening the mood. [. . .] Erin followed Jason, breathing more easy now that they weren't around an angry Kanna. “Umm...anyway I could...errr...help you calm down?” Erin wondered, thinking. She knew one way she probably could though. She bit her bottom lip, then grabbed his arm, pulling him to her and giving him a kiss now. This would help her, so she assumed it would help him too. -Visser Three's Blade Ship- As the ball of kinetic force hit Visser Three, the red liquid exploded, landing in various places! Visser Three Did Not Win The liquid shuddered, then began to swirl in the air, coming at chaos from all sides! <Fool! You can not defeat me! I am Visser Three, the only Yeerk with an Andalite host!> Visser Three laughed, his thought-speak reverberating through everyone's head. “Sir! There's another ship coming!” a voice shouted, over the Yeerks message system, “It's...It's an Empire class ship...” A pause... <Empire Class...that's...a Council member's ship!> Visser Three shouted. One of the Council of Thirteen? Here? Was it the Emperor? Ben paused, then pressed his Plumber's badge on his chest. “Upchuck!” Ben yelled with a flash of green light. He shot out his tongues, grabbing several Dracon beams and swallowing them, then firing a blast of energy to knock down a Hork Bajir! “Looks like they're going to get reinforcements! We need to do what we came here for!” Ben yelled. And that, of course, was find and rescue Max... |

NL Apocalypse As Galv attacked, Jagan seemed not to move whatsoever. In fact, his eyes were glowing and several of the items scattered around the room began to float, circling around the room slowly. However, as Galv's fist was just inches away, Jagan leaned back, just BARELY enough to void the punch and the electricity that lanced out of it. The following several punches were met with Jagan leaning just enough out of the way to evade, but dodge but mere millimeters. Never once did Jagan blink, and never once did the items around them slow their orbit. Then, he actually started to speak as well. "With enough focus, everything else can become muted. Fear, anger, any sort of emotions will either be channeled through said focus or blocked out completely." He dodged by millimeters again. "This is what I will teach you. How to gain focus, how to retain focus, how to keep it in even the worst of circumstances. And with concentration comes..." As Galv sent out another punch, Jagan ducked and brought both his hands forward, gently poking Galv once underneath the arm and once in the side before stepping away. "... Control. That was sufficient, Galv, halt your assault." He stepped back, placed one hand over the fist of the other and bowed a typical martial bow to the boy he just fought. Galv was quick, and Jagan was glad they were not fighting at the moment, or he would have had to work much harder to land those pokes. "Melanie, correct? Please step up. We shall begin your instruction in earnest with this. Galv, regain your breath and energy. You will require it." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Visser Three's Blade Ship chaos nodded quickly as Ben shouted out that they had to hurry, agreeing completely. Gathering kinetic energy as another layer over his clothes, chaos then let the energy loose in all directions, repelling anything that was flying towards him. Then, instead of bothering with the current opponents, chaos created a large, flat "Disc" of kinetic force, and fired it at leg-level down the hallway. "Follow me!!!" And with that call, chaos followed the disc, letting the disc of energy bowl over whoever was in the way while he kept its energy flowing from a good distance away, running after it. He was ignoring most energy blasts, ducking those that came too close and absorbing those that he could not dodge. If they needed to do this quick, then they had no time to face against horsed of aliens. They needed to be much quicker than that: What better way than to bowl over everybody in the way? |

NL Apocalypse ""With enough focus, everything else can become muted. Fear, anger, any sort of emotions will either be channeled through said focus or blocked out completely." Melanie continued to watch intently, but she WAS curious of how that would work out....After all her powers depended on her emotions. If she was perfectly she couldn't produce but of trickle of dark energy, but when she was in a scary or stressful situation her powers tended to overflow. It would be difficult attacking without using her emotions, so she supposed that meant she would have to channel them correctly. "Melanie, correct? Please step up. We shall begin your instruction in earnest with this. Melanie blinked, caught off guard. She thought should would be watching one of the others. "Me?" she asked "I'm not really as skilled as they are, maybe you should start with someone else" [...] Kanna gave a harsh laugh, but looked anything but amused "Are YOU trying to give me pointers on how to fight YOU?" she laughed "You must be effing crazy Ethan." [...] Jason was absolutely livid, the idea of his mother being such a hypocrite with that man was ridiculous! Suddenly he noticed Erin stopping. And then a kiss. While he wasn't in the mood to go closet hunting he had to admit this was rather helpful in making him feel better....Mmmm cinnamon too! "S-stop, i'm trying to be pissed, and you are not helping" Jason stated, trying not to crack a grin at the girl. |

-Nova's Ship- “Another spar I'll definitely have to have in the future,” Galv said to Jagan, and then Melanie was called up. The red headed boy turned to her, smiling. “Don't worry Melanie! I'm sure you'll be fine,” he said, “I know you will, in fact!” [. . .] “Well, just punching in general. If you're going to punch someone, you should do it right, no?” Ethan chuckled, “Not everyone has super strength like me after all, so it's good to know how to use the strength one does have to their advantage. “And I have been called crazy before. But I prefer to think of myself as eccentric.” [. . .] Erin pouted slightly, looking up at him. “Well, I don't like you pissed. I much prefer how you were earlier...Do I need to find a different closet for us?” Erin wondered. “I just hope we don't end up finding Galv and Melanie in one...” Erin thought to herself, but was careful not to voice it. -Visser Three's Blade Ship- From the ship, Jenny burst out, on...rocket skates? The daughter of The Doctor jumped over a Hork Bajir, following after chaos as they headed for the control room. “I should be able to get into their system!” Jenny shouted to chaos, staying behind him to let him clear the way, “Turn left, and then we have a lift to take!” She held a small pad device up, looking at schematics of a Blade Ship. How did she have this? Well, the Plumbers did have a Yeerk member too... |

NL Apocalypse Jagan gave Melanie a rather long look, as though the answer to his request was obvious. In his head, however, he was going over the things he needed to do. Basic stances and motions for combat for both Felix and Galv, as well as letting them go at the strength training. For Melanie, he had even more work, which was to calm her mind first, and then follow that with the same training for stances and motions. He was already running over the various styles that would fit these three in front of him, building a picture of how each of them needed to be taught. Galv seemed to be a quick learner and would be relatively easy to teach, especially since he already had a fair grasp of what he needed to do. Felix was more of an enigma. Melanie... Melanie required a lot of work. "Affirmative, it is you I have asked for. As you have just admitted, you are the one in need of the most instruction. Thus, I will instruct you first and most." He gave her a martial bow before settling himself into a martial art stance. "Step up. Your goal, however, is not to fight or throw punches. We are FAR from the stage where you can begin actual combat. First, you must have the mindset. The reflexes. The physical capability. No mistake, you will have to work to get good. But today, we shall begin with the basic of basics. Your goal right now is to focus. Clear your mind of stray thoughts. Do not think about boys, fighting, fear, anything. All you must do is focus on my motions. See them, as you would watching a flame or the ripples in water. And as you watch, your ultimate goal... Is not to blink, flinch or move." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visser Three's Blade Ship chaos jumped over one of the fallen opponents, continuing his dash. He knew that he did not, could not have killed anyone with the disc that he kept in front of himself, simply bowling enemies over like pins in a bowling alley. Every so often as they passed someone who ducked out of the way of the disc or was too tough to smply throw to the side, chaos shot a ball of kinetic force at them, knocking them over just enough for the group to pass. "Got it! Left!" As the group neared the intersection, chaos made a quick turn left while firing a ball of force to the right, hitting an alien in the shoulder and sending the creature spinning into a wall, stunning it just like all of his other movements. chaos continued his dash, running up to the elevator door, and then jumped back, letting Jenny and the rest of the group pass him as he spread his wings and folded them around himself, covering almost the entire hallway with glowing, feathered appendages that blocked weapons. "Quick, Jenny, get the elevator! I can't keep a shield this large up for long!" |

((What’s the problem with Adamantium? I don’t recall there being a rule against it, and this is the third time I’ve reference Kevin carrying around a piece of it, so if there was a problem, I’d have thought someone would have said something earlier.)) [NL Apocalypse] Felix stood off to the side, watching Jagan, Galv and Melanie. Jagan really seemed to know what he was doing, and Felix started to wonder about the mysterious man’s background. He would have liked to learn more about Nova’s eccentric crew, and hoped to find a time to ask them. For now, though, he just stood silently and watched. […] Rica was being unusually quiet for the moment. Perhaps it was because of what had transpired moments ago in the closet or maybe memories of a long ago time were bubbling up in his brain again. Or perhaps, it was an odd feeling weighing on his mind. He felt like something was looming around the corner. Something… unpleasant. [TRS Crusader] Sama gave a chuckle. “To be honest, I barely knew Rinoa back at SeeD. Things were a little complicated back then… and even more complicated during the time I spent with Caraway.” Not eager to talk about that side of the past (mainly because I don’t want to write something and contradict it later when I actually do write the backstory) Sama turned his attention to the very-good question of how Caraway was still employed and how Rinoa was not in prison; or worse. “The simple fact is, Caraway’s still a very important man. He’s got some long-lasting friendships with some bigwigs on several planets that happen to be key economic partners for the Republic. True, he could be replaced anyway… but if the President has to renew a trade contract, who would he rather send? A distinguished General whose has a preexisting relationship and trust with the leadership, or some ambassador?” Of course, something like that was not really enough of an incentive to make up for some of the things Rinoa had done. There was far more to it than that, and Sama proceeded to explain. “Caraway’s an ass, I can personally testify to that… but he’s also a tactical genius. There’s very few people with a mind like his when it comes to planning and running a battle or an entire campaign. That makes him useful to both the politicians and the military brass… he might not advance in rank any further, and he always has a sense of shame about him, but considering all of Rinoa’s rebel activities failed… well, EarthComm isn’t ready to can him just yet.” With a small sigh, Sama added in another secret. “As for Rinoa… she’s still got a lot of rebellious ideas, but any plans she hatches in the future are doomed to fail. She has a couple of ‘mercenaries’ who work for her as bodyguards… what she doesn’t know is that they actually work for Caraway. They’re job is to make sure none of her plans actually succeed and to keep her safe.” [Visser Three’s Blade Ship] KOS-MOS followed behind the rest of the ground, now moving into attack mode. She was not yet finished synthesizing her new weapon, but had returned to using the gigantic gaiting guns she could create with nanomachines. She opened fire on any of the enemies she could safely shoot at, sending hundreds of rounds their way every second. Jordan stuck close to Eva, but blasted at anything he could see. Kevin, meanwhile, was following close with chaos and Jenny, looking for any sign of Max, while trying to punch out any enemies around him. |

[NL Apocalypse] "Affirmative, it is you I have asked for. As you have just admitted, you are the one in need of the most instruction. Thus, I will instruct you first and most." Melanie bit her lip but gave a nod, stepping forward so that she was in front of Jagen. She wasn't sure how this would turn out...Hopefully not too pathetically. Your goal right now is to focus. Clear your mind of stray thoughts. Do not think about boys, fighting, fear, anything. All you must do is focus on my motions. See them, as you would watching a flame or the ripples in water. And as you watch, your ultimate goal... Is not to blink, flinch or move." She raised a brow. No actual fighting? Well she suposed that was a good start. She gave another nod, now trying to focus like she had been told to. She stared at Jagen, and cleared her mind...Or at least attempted. It was harder than she thought. She found her mind wandering off every now and then, especially if she noticed Galv from the corner of her eye. The girl blushed a bit and brought her eyes back to Jagen. She needed to focus....Which was hard for a thirteen year old girl. After a few moments of it though she started to get the hang of it.... [...] “And I have been called crazy before. But I prefer to think of myself as eccentric.” Kanna rolled her eyes at Ethan "Eccentric wasn't quite the word I was going for..." she muttered sarcastically. She then looked around and gave a bit of a groan. "That idiot probably went to go tell Melanie....Dumb boy." [...] “Well, I don't like you pissed. I much prefer how you were earlier...Do I need to find a different closet for us?” Jason couldn't help but to shudder...The mental image of Kanna and Rica doing ANYTHING in a closet ruined it for him. "No no no more closets...Somewhere else ANYWHERE else! Uggggggh." |

NL Apocalypse Jagan watched Melanie carefully. First, like any new student, her eyes wandered for the first few seconds, but then, she seemed to settle herself and started to pay attention. Jagan hasn't moved until she started to concentrate... It was time to continue this exercise in earnest. Without any warning, Jagan lashed out with a lightning-quick punch... And stopped it a hair's width away from the tip of her nose. Then, pulling back, he used the motion to carry him into a side mule-kick that stopped just half an inch away from her stomach. His body twisted, the leg coming back down, his left arm coming swinging around in what looked like a nasty backhand, but that blow also never reached, stopping just half a centimeter away from her left temple. "Do not flinch. Do not move. Do not pull back. Focus on the motion, but do not react to it." He again lashed out then, going into a full triple-punch-to-the-face combo, but none of the punches actually touched. This was followed by another nasty backhand and what would have been a crushing elbow blow to the chest, but none of these attacks actually touched. Through all of this, he remained just as stoic as ever, just as cold and professional. Jagan didn't seem to use any sort of particular martial art style either, he just went with what looked like the most devastatingly crushing and damaging blows he could think of, though he stopped every single one of them. |
![]() Now becomes the the past in an instant — and everyone will eventually die! Destiny triumphs over human knowledge and goes mad! That is the way of things! I spit upon this frail, crazed, world! I spit upon the Second Law of Thermodynamics! ~ Desty Nova, Karmatron Theory Let them Label me! Let them swear and curse at me as I tug humanity like a bucking bull into the darkness of the unknown, revealing its secrets to the sane and driving them MAD! In ages long past, I shall be looked upon as a tyrant and a savior! As a savant and as a fool! My work shall advance humanity long past its time, throw it into the unknown future and force it to grow strong or FALL! Years from now, when I will inevitably be removed, my work shall continue to progress, because these things cannot be denied! Governments will publicly criticize my work, but privately conduct research that advances it! I shall imprint myself into the annals of history, among the stars that shine as brightly as Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, Dmitri Mendeleev, Nikola Tesla, and countless others! My work will shine as brightly as any star, and I AM ITS CREATOR!!! ~ Desty Nova, Morality
