With a sickening pop and a gross sound, skin, bone and sinew reconnected. Rica grunted, coughed several times, and sat up rubbing his aching face. His sunglasses were obviously crushed into a million pieces.

He looked up, and then he noticed what had happened. Jason was on the ground in a heap of blood, and Kanna was next to the fallen boy, looking distraught.

He saw Erin freaking out, and Melanie and Galv looking horrified. He saw Felix standing frozen and Aiden looking unsure. He saw Ethan on the ground, and Samuel looking conflicted.

And he saw Levina who did not seem to care what had just happened.

Rica slowly stood up, rubbing his neck and growling. He started to walk towards Kanna, moving his hand into his coat and gripping the handle of his gun. While his regeneration was working overtime to fix the remaining damage, he was wary to use his powers.

[...]

Felix shook his head, and he slowly moved towards Melanie and Galv.

"A-Are you okay?"

The wind was picking up around Kanna and for a moment she looked up to see why. The girl was now screaming, obviously because of what just happened. Kanna tried to wipe her face, and regain some composure. She found that nearly imposible. She kept crying, her cheeks and nose pink.

Kanna suddenly realized something. She looked around desperately before spotting the girl.

"Oh Melanie...."

For once she was happy that the boy was beside her, better there than here. She didn't realize what the small girl was about to do.

Melanie stood there blankly, watching Erin blast back Walter into a wall. Both Galv and Felix were showing concern for her, but she still couldn't talk. Instead she ran forward at the blond boy, hands glowing dark once more. Luckily Kanna realized what her daughter was doing and grabbed the girl before she could get to close.

"M-Melanie you STUPID girl....GO...G-go.."

Kanna had no clue where she wanted the girl to go. Anywhere but here.

A girl so young didn't need to see this.

Melanie still couldn't say anything. It hadn't quite registered that Jason was on the ground, and that his blood was on Kanna's dress.

Usually by now the boy was inspecting her, making sure she was alright.

Kanna looked around, speaking to whoever who would listen "Take them away from here" she said, referring to the children--including Melanie.

The wind was picking up.

Desty sighed.

"And so it ends. Or maybe... So it begins? I never know with humans anymore, especially with this group. I am sorry you had to see this, Luna. It was not my intention to let you view death in such a setting."

He returned to watching.

"However, it was perhaps... A step. These people... They have so much energy around them, so much moving around them, that perhaps this was but a ripple effect of their effect on what we consider our reality. Perhaps this is what gives them drive, strength, conviction. Or maybe, it will break them like so much sticks."

He watched for a few more moments, before he suddenly gave a very wide grin, one that was downright maniacal.

"Oh well, no time like the present to exploit the situation! Elf, start up Step 1 of Project Preservation. Target the dead boy. Make sure things continue as normal. Luna, keep Melanie targeted. If this death escalates the conflict, we will have to relocate her immediately."

The number 11 Gynoid snapped off a quick salute, and homed in on the body, starting up some machine or other...

Outer Space

Jagan was still awaiting for the group to move and for Sama to lead them towards their next destination, the TRS Crusader.

In the meanwhile, he had time to run checks on the mecha that were around him. Everything was checking out fine, even post-activation. In fact, the synchronization rate from the Pandora was surprisingly high, and he noted the point to be discussed later.

The others were within normal parameters as well, and particularly Sama's and Crstal's were synchronizing well.

Rica reached the group in time to see a blood-stained Kanna struggling to keep Melanie away from Walter. His first instinct was to see if Kanna was safe – and his second instinct was to run over and burnt/freeze Walter until he was a puddle of human soup that only vaguely resembled something that was once alive.

He did neither. Instead he picked up Melanie and embraced the girl, and then looked to the other children. “Come on. We’re going somewhere safe.”

Felix hesitated... he wanted to help... but he did not think he could fight Walter, and he did not want to endanger Aiden or Melanie.

[NL Apocalypse]

Luna nodded, but she hesitated.

“… Nova? Shouldn’t we teleport them ALL back here?”

Ethan shook his head...then spun around, tripping Maize, now taking her by surprise. He jumped up, grabbing her, then whacking her on the head, just hard enough to knock her out. He didn't want to hurt her...especially if she really was his daughter.

He groaned a little, having a terrible headache, but fought through it. He looked over and saw Kanna, crying over a dead Jason.

“...I liked him...” Ethan growled, seeing the slowly melting ice where Jason's heart had been.

Walter laughed, picking himself up. It cut through the wind, the young man's laughter.

“We're all fools! Don't you see! Made to be weapons, even those NERV never directly touched! Our instinct is to fight! To kill! To prove we are the best!” Walter laughed, shaking his head...Then grew eerily quiet, the entire area beginning to grow cold. Even Aiden's fire dimmed.

Ice formed and constructed itself around Walter, creating a sort of armor.

“Who's next?” he wondered.

Galv grabbed Melanie by the shoulders, wincing slightly as his own arm protested.

“Melanie...let's...leave...” Galv said, pulling her closer to him. “Before something...else...happens.”

It couldn't get much worse.

Now Rica appeared, picking up Melanie. Galv paused, then followed him. Walter watched them.

“Felix, I'm scared!” Aiden said, gripping Felix's arm again.

Samuel continue to stare at the air, still in slight shock. Levina snorted...Not really caring about what happened.

“Galv, you are not leaving me again...” Levina said, stepping forward, hand sparking, pointing at Rica and Melanie.

“Yes I am!” Galv yelled, turning to the woman, “You're not my mother! You're just some woman who claims to be! If you really were, you'd have tried to get me anyways, NERV be damned!”

Galv shook, glaring at Levina, who was shocked, but did not loose her electricity.

“And you!” Galv glared at Samuel, shocking him out of his stupor, “You say you're my father! You said you thought I was dead! Did you even bother to try and look? Did you?!”

He shook, “My name is Galv! I don't care what genetics or you two say! I am not a Hawkins!”

Levina glared at him, then turned her attention to Rica and Melanie.

“That girl...She's the reason you're acting like this...” Levina growled, as irrational towards Melanie as Kanna is towards Galv, “Fine then...”

She fired a bolt of lightning, but found it arcing, Galv holding up his hand as he absorbed the energy.

“Touch her and I swear, I'll kill you. I don't care if you gave birth to me. You are not my mother...”



In the T.A.R.D.I.S., The Doctor slammed his fist into the wall, then winced.

He could have done something. Saved the boy's life! But he didn't...He couldn't. He was interfering so much more then he should be already.

He stared at the controls of his ship, then at his hands. He had so much power. So much potential. But he couldn't use it...

“I'm sorry...” he sighed.

“That girl...She's the reason you're acting like this...” Levina growled, as irrational towards Melanie as Kanna is towards Galv, “Fine then...”

As Levina looked to be moving towards Melanie (who was in Rica’s arms), he narrowed his eyes. The gray of his eyes had turned red, and a fierce heat was building in his face. He could not use his powers now… if he did, he would risk causing temporary damage as he tried to regenerate.

He didn’t care.

“Lady, you come near this girl and I’ll boil the marrow in your bones. As for Galv… maybe you are his mother, but he doesn’t want to come with you – said so himself, and to your face. Back off or I will kill you.”

He saw Levina fire a bolt of lightning and he moved to turn around, to shield Melanie with his own body – but the lightning did not come. Galv had stopped it. Rica suddenly looked up.

“Nova! Doctor! If either of you bastards can hear me, come down here and take these children somewhere safe, or by God I’ll do whatever I have to, to kill you both!”

He wanted to kill Walter… to kill Levina… he wanted to go and comfort Kanna… but right now, he had to make sure the children were safe.

[…]

“Felix, I'm scared!” Aiden said, gripping Felix's arm again.

Felix gulped, and realized he had to do something. Aiden was terrified, and for good reason. Felix was scared too… but he was the boy and he was supposed to protect her! As scared as he was, he looked at her.

“Aiden… I want you to go hide somewhere safe! I’ll do whatever I can to help!”

Melanie felt strange when Rica picked her up, embracing the girl without a sound. She hadn't been picked up in a long time, as she had been getting to that age where the only way Jason could do so was by piggy back, which he only sometimes grudgingly agreed to.

Melanie sniffled and realized that Rica had blood on him too.

"Is that...Jason's?" she asked quietly, referring to the blood. The smell was making her sick, but it seemed to be on everything. The girl buried her head against his dirty coat.

But suddenly there was crackling of electricity. Rica turned to shield the girl and Melanie closed her eyes tightly and stiffened. Luckily nothing had hit them. Galv had absorbed it.

“Touch her and I swear, I'll kill you

She didn't want to see anymore blood.

Kanna shakily stood up from beside her son's body, glaring darkly at both Walter and Levina. "Rica....Get them out of here..." she warned. One hand was shining brightly and the other was black.

She spoke to them both. "Leave or I--we will kill you. This is not a suggestion and if you stick around I will be sure to kill you in the worst way possible. You took my son...NOW GO"

If they were to stick around she would kill them. Literally. No more of the figurative bullcrap. It seemed like Rica was ready to do the same.

Rica felt like someone had just crushed his face – again. When Melanie asked about the blood on his coat, for the first time since he was a child at NERV, Rica actually had to fight back the urge to cry. If he had behaved like a teenager with Kanna, he now felt like a child.

“Don’t think about what happened. Melanie, listen to me, I want you to think about something that makes you happy. Just close your eyes and focus on something that makes you happy. Don’t think about anything else.”

Rica looked to Kanna… he hoped that woman would be alright. Still, if Levina and Walter attacked again, Rica would help her – and he would slaughter them all with a level of violence so gruesome it wouldn’t be allowed to be posted on SRB.

"Okay Mr. Rica.....I'll try"

Melanie listened to Rica's instructions, nodding when he finished speaking. She didn't look at him, instead she closed her eyes tightly, trying to picture anything but her brother's body or the blood in her mind.

What did she like? She liked being at home or at school. She liked being indoors and reading. She liked cooking...Especially pot roast which was her mother's favorite. She also liked Galv...No...She loved Galv. She loved her family...She loved Jaso-Oh no no no....

Melanie clutched Rica's coat tightly. This wasn't working. She was desperately trying to make it work.

The smell of the blood was suffocating to her. She didn't want to be near it but escaping it was just as impossible. She felt her eyes get wet. She was finally crying.

“ALLONS-Y!”

The Doctor strode forward, shouting the catchphrase of his former regeneration, “All the kids, to the T.A.R.D.I.S., with me, right now!”

He had a look on his face. A very angry one.

“That means everyone under 18,” The Doctor said, glancing to Galv and Felix. Galv blinked, then followed after Rica and Melanie, to head to the T.A.R.D.I.S.

“The door's open, just close it once they're in,” The Doctor told Rica, “Then you can come right back.”

He ignored Levina and Walter, striding straight towards Erin, then stopped, looking upwards.

“Nova. I know you're watching us. You see that girl?” he pointed to Erin, “Bring her to your ship. Put her somewhere safe where she can run through her emotions for the time being.”

The Doctor was angry. He could not save Jason. If he did, it would cause a temporal paradox that would start ripping the universe asunder. But The Doctor felt like Nova could have.

He turned to the powered humans, staring at them all.

“You can fight if you must, but if you kill anyone I will not let aboard my T.A.R.D.I.S.,” The Doctor glared, then began to walk off.


Samuel faltered. He didn't know what to do! Ethan stepped forward, patting Samuel's shoulder.

“Hey, listen,” Ethan said. Then slammed his fist into Samuel's gut. It didn't hurt Samuel, but the force made him double over.

Levina spun, surprised, then fired lightning at Ethan. He super strong man used Samuel as a shield, then picked him up, throwing him into the wall, hard.

The tough metal of the wall dented, and Samuel slumped to the floor.

Sufficient force. Caused to much adrenaline to pump into Samuel's body. Samuel's body would feel like it should be dead. He'd need time to come to sorts. Essentially, Ethan managed to knock Samuel out.

He knew there was going to be a fight, and didn't want Samuel to have to choose. Ethan was considerate like that.

Rica heard the soft sounds of her breath and he could feet her tears mixing with the blood on his coat. Rica had often been called heartless for the way he could slaughter people without ever changing the expression on his face.

He walked over to the T.A.R.D.I.S. as it appeared and placed Melanie inside. “Stay here, no matter what happens. Do not leave this Police Box. Melanie, I know you’re hurting, but Jason would not want you to cry. Be strong for his sake.”

Rica patted her on the head, and turned to see Felix standing in front of him.

“I want to fight!” Felix said, finally making up his mind.

“Forget it. Get inside the ship.” Rica commanded, pushing Felix into the TARDIS with Melanie (and presumably Galv and Aiden).


Rica then walked over. He saw Ethan punch Samuel, and for once, he was glad to see Ethan doing something. Rica drew his pistol, and focused his powers. He walked up next to Kanna.

“…Melanie is in pain right now, and she needs you now more than she’s ever needed you before. You can’t die. So I want you to leave. If you want these people dead, I’ll stay and kill them – but you cannot die now, Kanna.”

“You really think you can take them alone?” Ethan wondered, walking over towards Rica and Kanna, cracking his neck as he looked towards Levina and Walter.

Ethan smirked, waving his finger at Rica, “Sorry gray eyes, but I doubt you'd last thirty seconds against them. You're going to need some help...”

Ethan then glanced to Kanna, “And I have to agree with gray eyes here. Your kids need you alive...Oi, Doctor!”

The Doctor paused as he was leaving, turning. “What?”

“See that girl there?” Ethan pointed to the unconscious Maize, “She's apparently my daughter. Pretty strong. I'd appreciate if you'd put her somewhere she can't hurt anyone for the moment.”

The Doctor stood still, then nodded, and retrieved Maize, pulling her to the T.A.R.D.I.S.

“Don't think this is a macho thing, Kanna,” Ethan continued, “If it was, I'd knock him out too then fight these two alone.” he gestured to Rica.

“Are you quite done?” Walter wondered, ready to fight. Levina growled, her entire body sparking with energy, her hair standing on end.



Aiden followed Felix in. Galv paused at the doorway, then went in as well. Melanie would need him.

“Melanie...” Galv said, taking the girl and hugging her tightly, closing his own eyes. He didn't even notice The Doctor returning, bringing Maize with him, and locking her in a separate room of the T.A.R.D.I.S.

Melanie made the realization that the children were leaving as soon as she was on the ship. The girl instantly panicked, her grip tightening on Rica's coat, as she looked around. She wanted to yell that she needed to stay, that she hadn't had a chance to say goodbye to her older brother, but she simply wasn't given that choice.

She tried not to get sick, or pass out. She had an extreme need to show her mother that she could stay. She would be good if they let her. She wouldn't talk, she wouldn't even cry. The idea of leaving was scarier than anything here.

"Melanie...

Melanie turned Galv, who quickly embraced her. She finally cracked, loudly sobbing into his shirt.

Kanna glared at both Walter and Levina. "They're gone. Now's your chance. Leave. My son is dead and my daughter's safe. You have nothing else to stay here for. Get out of my sight unless you want me to kill you."

Rica appeared next to her, gun drawn.

“…Melanie is in pain right now, and she needs you now more than she’s ever needed you before. You can’t die. So I want you to leave. If you want these people dead, I’ll stay and kill them – but you cannot die now, Kanna.”

And now Ethan wanted her to go as well.....

Kanna knew they were right but she couldn't leave. Her son was here...And so was the boy who killed him.

".....You idiots" she mumbled still shaking, "I'm not leaving until I see him dead or gone. I'm going to do it."

It was obvious she hadn't stopped crying.

Under different circumstances, Rica would have belittled Ethan and played the rivalry dance the two had become so accustomed too. Full of snarky comments and insults.

He was not in the mood.

“Ethan, for once I don’t feel like arguing with you. Whatever differences we have, let’s put them aside and work together. You’re strong, I’m strong and together we can give these two the punishment they deserve.”

“Are you quite done?”

Rica wanted to shoot him in the face and then burn his body until it resembled a strip of bacon. First he wanted Kanna to leave, though.

“Kanna… go. Be with your daughter and be safe.”

".....You idiots" she mumbled still shaking, "I'm not leaving until I see him dead or gone. I'm going to do it."

[TARDIS]

Felix sighed and banged on the doors... he wanted to go fight! He wanted to help... he did not know Jason well, but he could see the pain in the eyes of Galv and Melanie...

"... I'm sorry." Felix said, tears in his eyes. "I... I'm so sorry..."

“Kanna… go. Be with your daughter and be safe.”

Kanna tried to stay calm, really she did, but it was a hard thing to do when your son was murdered in front of you.

"YOU IDIOT HE KILLED MY SON. I'M NOT LEAVING!"

It was anyone's guess if Kanna would dissolve back into tears or beat Walter into a bloody pulp first. She looked as if she could actually do both.

Because Walter did not make a move to leave Kanna made a move to kill him.
