-Mobius: Acorn Palace-

King Mickey took a spot by the U.T.R. delegates. He was not wearing his crown, however. He wasn't here as a King, but as a Mobian.

Amadeus entered the room first, soon followed by Sonic and the others. Amadeus took a seat. Sonic looked edgey, but then took one as well, sitting by Amadeus.

Shadow (along with possibly Amy), hung in the back. He wasn't really sure what was happening, but he figured he owed Amy after almost getting her infected by a Yeerk.

“Greetings...” Amadeus said, “I hope we can all be amiable to each other.”

"Ah. Horner. I've heard good things about you."

Hall approached Horner.

"Lieutenant General William Hall. I'd say at your service, but...I think the inverse is supposed to be the case..." he chuckled.

"...I'm glad they sent SOMEONE else." he said. "The mobians are nice enough when you get to know them...but lately they've kept my hands full. Come along. Hopefully, neither of us are even needed here...but we can't forget we get to be the "imperials" the media always whines about and enforce Republic interests as well as peacekeepers..." he said, and even chuckled a bit again.

"Come along. Good to have you here."

Shuttle


“Since we're off-duty now, you can carry my stuff. That's what boys do for girls.”


Didymus laughed.

"I never thought you were one for expressions of chivalry. You mean to tell me you aren't too proud to have someone else carry this for you? As it is..."

He lowered the bag a bit, then dropped it on the shuttle floor.

"...as it is, my parent are vaccationing, so the house will be ours. And I expect we can take good care of it. Which means we are NOT trashing it."

Didymus stood in contrast to Asuka. He was in uniform, still, despite going on leave. He'd change later.

"We're off duty, so I may not hold you to what I usually would, Soryu, but that doesn't mean that I'm pitching EVERYTHING about service to the wind-and neither, I hope, will you. We still represent the military, even off duty, and...well, that's all I need to say. And again, I hope we can still be a tad professional with each other-I mean, rank and all that. I think the ONLY reason they're even letting this fly is because we fight side-by-side..."

He sat down again, as the shuttle sealed up and took off.

As they left the Third, he was quiet for a bit.

"So Soryu, have you ever been to Earth?"

Horner nodded to Hall, and saluted the man.

“General, it's good to meet you sir. I'm honored to be working with you. I've heard a lot about you, sir.”

In all truth, Horner was glad to be working for a genuine soldier like Hall. He was devoted to Raynor to the end, and would never speak ill of his CO, but Philanthropy was a... odd organization and it was difficult for a man like Matt Horner to always appreciate his post there.

He was silent now, though. The mobians were speaking.

Knuckles was also silent. Why was he here? He didn't see any big Emeralds in this room.

[Shuttle]

We still represent the military, even off duty, and...well, that's all I need to sa


“Actually, it's MORE than what you need to say. I don't intend to go anywhere public, so I'm not 'representing' anything to anyone, except I guess you, and I'm pretty sure I don't match your expectations of the military as it is.”

She gave a sigh and shrugged her shoulders.

When he spoke up on the shuttle, she paused, and became contemplative.

“... I have, yes. A few times. I had a friend who lived on Earth... but that was a long time ago.”

"I like it too...It's nice...I..Should write it down...."

Melanie yawned once more, finally falling asleep. Sure it wouldn't be for long, but at least the two kids were getting a chance to rest. Not to mention things were a lot less awkward when you were fast asleep....

NERV Flashback

Kanna looked to Rica, actually smiling for once (though she was still blushing a bit at his hand on hers). "I can't wait" she said, leaning over and kissing the boy before standing up and grabbing a few things.

"I'm still amazed how you managed to get some of that stuff....I mean keys to a jet? How the hell did you manage to steal THAT?"

Lyoko HQ

Molly shuddered, not really understanding that the boy was pretty much asking her out. "I imagine dating to be all mushy and lame and boring! I mean where in the world do I find a guy who doesn't care that I can beat him in a race?! Dating is for girly girls who like getting dumb presents and candy! Dont'cha think so Jordan!"

[...]

Jade looked over at Ben, still a bit disoriented and rubbing her head.

"Hey Ben!....Uh, no i'm fine....But....What happened?"

She was totally unaware she had been possessed by an evil computer virus...

Hall returned Horner's salute, and nodded.

"Have you? I hope not. Anything that I should give MY side of the story for?"

He laughed.

Sally raised an eyebrow.

"If I can call order...what exactly is it you want?" she asked.

Shuttle

"No where public, Soryu?" Didymus asked. "You mean you want to be locked up in the house for this whole leave? You don't even want to see...anything? Do anything? I mean, make no mistake, I usually like lazing about and just playing hologames or whatever myself...but...well, it's your call, I suppose. But I'll probably be around in the house whenever you are-I may trust you with my life from time to time, but not with my family's estate." he grinned.



“... I have, yes. A few times. I had a friend who lived on Earth... but that was a long time ago.”


"Hm. You did? Well, I'm listening if you're in the mood to share...otherwise, anything else on your mind? Oh, and what kind of stuff you want for meals, we may need to get groceries when we get to Earth or something..."

Rica grinned as she kissed him. Even though the two were a couple now, he never got used to that. He leaned back and put his hands behind his head and looked over to her.

“It wasn't THAT hard. I just had to convince a few of the guys in the auto pool that I only wanted the jet so I could run some errands. I know how to fake Burke's signature. Still, we should move as soon as we can.”

He grinned at her and leaned closer to her.

“We'll leave today. Finally... I've waited for this for so long. We'll be free...”

[Lyoko HQ]

Jordan sighed once more, wishing that someone would just shoot him right now. He sighed and rubbed his neck, but then something crossed his mind. Jordan was not very good at flirting, and especially when it came to Molly.... still...

“... It doesn't have to be, Molly. You just need to find a guy who likes racing and fun stuff like that. Someone who will take you to fly next to a quasar instead of buy you flowers.”

[Shuttle]

Asuka sighed and decided she did not want to think too much about what she would do on the vacation. That was too much to think about... and somehow, she didn't feel too awkward opening up to him. Maybe it was the stress.

“... I did, yeah... I met this kid. He was a complete pansy. A total wimp, he couldn't do a thing right. But we used to hang out back on Earth. It was fun beating him up.”

Ben grinned, “You're okay! Good...”

"Hey Ben!....Uh, no i'm fine....But....What happened?"

“Errr...X.A.N.A. kinda took you over...” Ben explained, rubbing the back of his head. “I managed to get him out of your head...But it's still around on the computer somewhere...”

He sighed slightly. He hoped Jade didn't remember that kiss...She'd punch him if she did.

-Mobius: Acorn Palace-

Amadeus looked towards Sally.

“Democracy, is what we want,” Amadeus told Sally, “I know that so many people want to simply abolish the Houses and hold elections...You've doubtlessly heard people calling to 'elect Sonic the Hedgehog.'”

He sighed slightly, “I can not control what my supporters say and what they want to do. If I did, well, that would defeat the purpose of what I want to accomplish.

“At the same time, I realize that what they ask for is impossible. The Houses will not be abolished, short of full scale civil war, and I would rather fall on my own sword then let that happen,” Amadeus continued, “However...we still want concessions. The people want their voices to be heard. The Houses represent those who were born into power, not elected.

“I have several ideas to try and reach a compromise. But I must know if you and the other Houses will be willing to even talk of one. Will you allow any concessions?” Amadeus finished.

Galv and Melanie were asleep next to each other. Everyone at once now.

Sally listened.

"The Houses more or less already operate by their own rules, as long as they submit to the crown." she said.

"PERHAPS we will allow concessions...but that depends on what they are. But what if I refuse? Will you fall on your sword to prevent civil war, or will you call for it? Even in the face of the Republic garrison?"

Hall shifted, but his friendly demeanor he had showed Horner was replaced by an earnest one.

Shuttle


“... I did, yeah... I met this kid. He was a complete pansy. A total wimp, he couldn't do a thing right. But we used to hang out back on Earth. It was fun beating him up.”


"I...do you take pleasure out of beating people up, Soryu?"

Didymus shifted a bit.

"That was then, right? I suppose that it can be satisfying to dominate in combat sometimes, or..." he paused.

"...so what did you think of Earth, then?"

Changing the subject, perhaps?

Horner remained silent as well, but he sat up and shifted uncomfortably. He hoped the mobians would not start another war... the last thing the Republic needed was ANOTHER front to contend with along with the Metarex.

[Shuttle]

"I...do you take pleasure out of beating people up, Soryu?"

Asuka nodded exuberantly. “You really didn't notice?”

She sighed and shrugged her shoulders, leaning back against the chair. He started talking about Earth and Asuka just ended up sighing.

“Earth... is alright I guess. I don't have many good memories of it, and I haven't met many of you Earth boys who don't piss me off every day.”

-Mobius: Acorn Palace-

“Perhaps a Council of some sort, where several of the members are elected by the people,” Amadeus said, “Making a single seat would not work. They would simply be outvoted for any future changes, if needed. Perhaps...four seats. One for each of the houses. And the reigning house, in this case, that would be you, would have veto power. Naturally, that veto could be overturned with some kind of majority vote, but that would require agreement between both elected and...chosen...officials.”

He glanced down at a paper, then looked up, “If you refuse to any concessions...Then I will call for peaceful protests. I will ask that those who want democracy to continue to press for it in a non violent way.”

Amadeus sighed slightly now, “You must remember, however, that I don't control all of those who want democracy. There will be factions that want to topple the Houses, and do so violently, regardless of what happens here. I can not control the people. Neither can you, Princess Acorn.”

Sally listened.

"Possibly..." she said. "...that sounds like a system that some of the people already use..."

Hall spoke.

"Any unlawful or violent uprising WILL be dealt with. Harshly. Too many civilians and too many of my own people have been killed already." he said. "Our patience for it grows...thin."

Sally nodded warily.

Shuttle

“You really didn't notice?”

"I did notice you enjoy battle, Soryu." he said. "I hope that indeed is what it is, as opposed to simply enjoying the pain of others. That's...that's just not right..."

He shook his head.

"Of course, who, perhaps, are any of us to speak on that..."

He tried to grin at Asuka's next comment.

"Not many fond memories of Earth? Hopefully, that will change soon. And as for Earth boys..."

He grinned.

"What's wrong with us Earth boys? Too "homegrown" for your tastes, miss?"

That was possibly the boldest thing he had said to her. Possibly.

“I see the Council idea seems...favorable,” Amadeus said. Someone on his right was writing all of this down.

“You have my support to stop violent uprisings. I will even try and bring a militia together to aid you if you wish. They will, of course, listen to the commanding officer. Cooperation is key,” Amadeus said, “But I do have a slight worry in what was said...Unlawful uprisings...Even if they are peaceful, will they be dealt with, as you said, 'harshly'? There is such a thing as civil disobedience, after all. Firing on unarmed, non combatants could spark something more then any of us could handle, after all, and I do not wish to see that.”

Sonic frowned as well. He really didn't hope these guys would do something like that.

Hall raised an eyebrow.

"If laws are violated in a peaceful manner...dealing out any punishments for it is the affair of the Acorn government." he said.

"We're here to keep the peace and crush violent or armed insurrection. Civil disobedience and actual uprisings are in entirely different classes." Hall said.

The fight finally came to an abrupt end when Jagan made a small mistake, and Liquid Snake's new maneuver caught him. In the end, it all boiled down to experience, and Jagan didn't have a lot of active-duty experience, while Liquid Snake was so much older and so much more weathered.

Jagan found himself flat on his back after the most recent blow, his ears ringing from his head's impact with the solid ground. He was on the ground for just a second, before his legs were twirling in the air, bringing him back to a standing position.

He was breathing heavily, and looked as steely as ever, his expression as cold and ruthless as before. But beneath that, he was growing tired. His opponent was much better than he was. But Jagan was learning.

Every single battle was a new learning experience for the young man. Every single fight, every single mission, every single action provided a new learning experience, one Jagan embraced with open hands, learning as much as he could. Fighting Liquid Snake, Jagan was not only learning of the man's tactics, but he was also learning how to utilize some of the rather unique and esoteric movements of the combat style that he had been taught.

Movements that he previously thought useless were now obviously not so.

Taking a more defensive approach, Jagan slowly and silently moved into melee combat again, now wary of Liquid Snake's skill.

Desty Nova blinked a few times.

"Wait... A habitable planet in this radioactive gas cloud? THIS I need to see!"

Seconds later, a screen was brought up over his messy desk, one Desty Nova surfed across, and true to Luna's word, they would be passing by a large planetoid that was nullifying the radiation somehow.

"... Curious... Luna, I know you're right about the guests needing some time off. But something about this Planetoid strikes me as strange. Too strange to be normal. Look at the fluctuation patterns. There's an energy field that my scanners aren't picking up, but is obviously there because the radioactive effect makes a perfect sphere around the Planetoid."

He smirked, clapping one hand to the other, being careful not to damage the sketch that he held.

"Thus... Luna! We're going down with them! I want to see this for myself and find out what's causing such an anomalous reaction. I will leave Sechs, Elf and Zwölf on the ship, they will cover us from orbit. Due to the clouds disappearance over the panetoid's surface, the scanners are reaching through nicely. If we ever get the idea to do so, we can always Solar Lance from planet orbit."

He jumped out of his seat, brushing by the Mobian girl.

"Well, no time to waste! Gather your things! Tell the others we are going down! And... Oh, make sure to bring some weapons, just in case. I don't want to end up defenseless planetside. The Ragnarok will make a direct landing. If it is ever threatened, it will get out of dodge and support us from orbit. Make sure you also have oxygen masks and... Oh, so much to do, so much to DO!!!"

He stopped for a second, casting a longing glance at the sketch he still held in one hand, before flicking it so it went back to the desk and settled there quietly.

"Unfortunately, that box will have to be explored later. Come! We have no time to waste!"

And, moving and acting like a human hurricane, Desty Nova swept out of his "theory chamber" and started to gather everything he needed for this expedition...

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!!!

"I hope you're right...." Kanna stated, moving to grab a small bag which she slung over her shoulder. It didn't hold much, but just enough to get by...Some money she saved, a few important documents she carried, and a few little odds and ends. She really didn't have to do much to get ready.

Kanna was just ready to get out of here.

"You ready?"
