Space Mall

Nack happily took the sack full of cash. Lots of cash. The Bagel Hut did see millions of space farers a day, after all. His face seemed to become gloomy as Ben revealed himself. But he was sure luck was on his side. After all, he had a pretty successful spree going.

He did become a little uneasy when the kid suddenly became a mutant-thingy. He laughs it off however and tosses off his bandanna, revealing his one sharp fang. "You know who you're messing with, chump? I'm the BEST criminal west of the main core!" He says, pointing his free gloved hand at Ben. "And no shapeshifter's gonna do me in. I'm Fang the Sniper!"

Of course, he went by Fang during all of his crime activities. Though when introduced to a bounty hunter or treasure hunter, he'd probably tell you he was Nack...that was not the case right now, though.

"At any rate, I don't HAVE to beat you. I just gotta get away." He says with a chuckle. He levels his gun at Ben and begins firing, flame licking from the barrels of his pistol. The way the mall was built caused the shots to echo, seeming as if artillery were at work. As he fired, Nack took a number of paces backwards preparing to flee.

[Shuttle]

Rinoa was on the shuttle as well, flanked by Beast Boy and Cyborg. She looked different now... she was psyched up, and totally serious. The girl's year of politics had paid off, and she was ready to get this done.

[Planet Planit]

A limo pulled up outside the restaurant where Galv and Melanie were enjoying their food. Azula stepped into the restaurant and quickly approached the two teens, a small smile on her face. She was dressed in a business suit, and looked professional.

“Excuse me... my name is Azula Veidt. I've been asked to formally extent a warm welcome to both of you. Would you be willing to accompany me to my father's company? We have a job offer for you.”

[Hoth]

As Shadow attacked the artificial Chaos, it was knocked back – and the other two moved forward at Shadow, Amy and Luna!

[The Lightwing]

“... Nourasia.” KOS-MOS replied, checking the charts – by which she meant her vast memory-bank, which contained the knowledge of the Protoss.

[Unknown Planet, Months Prior]

Otacon reached the door, and was ready to call, when suddenly the alarms went off because of the fighting in the control room. Otacon frowned and leaned back, and suddenly those metal spiders were EVERYWHERE.

Otacon gasped. “Oh shoot!”

chaos nodded quickly.

"Set next jump point from point Alpha to the nearest commercial line and from there to Nourasia. We'll lose the tail in the crowd. Maybe we can contact Sama from the surface, tell him that we've been sidetracked. I can't send communications our right now due to Hyperspace-to-space static..."

He took a look at the following ship again.

"Hopefully, they won't decide to attack before we hit Nourasia. I really don't want to find out the hard way whether this is a high-performance craft or not... I'll set the scanners to keep track of the ship."

Doing so, he took a look at the watch. 5 more minutes till arrival at Point Alpha. Hopefully, they'll have enough time to make another jump before they can be followed.

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

Unknown Planet, Months Prior

Robots attacked from everywhere! They seemed to see through Otacon's stealth suit! They were converging on the man with the sample, about to either incarcerate or eliminate the intruder! And he was apparently on his own!

...

...

Well, until the robots suddenly stopped individual motion, all of them continuing forward on pure momentum before falling apart into pieces. Almost 90% of the attacking spider-bot force was simply cut apart by something.

A glare of light reflected off of a whipping string that looked much too fine to be any normal string. It snapped to the side, colliding with another string and retreating... Behind Otacon.

And that is when Elf revealed herself by tapping the man's shoulder and speaking.

"Hiya! You MIGHT want to start running, by the way. There's only so much time until the facility goes into complete lockdown..."

Otacon was about to pass out, or perhaps pee himself from fear (he did in the game XD8) when suddenly the robotic spiders were destroyed, by Elf. Otacon let out a sigh of reluef and hugged the girl.

“Oh thank you! I should be mad at Nova for having you follow me, but... you saved my life!”

He sniffled. “P-Please... can we go now?”

[The Lightwing]

KOS-MOS shook her head.

“Detection is difficult in hyperspace, but I do not detect any energy signatures from weaponry, nor any form of lock on. The ship is merely following us – from a distance. To attack us during FTL travel, they are too far to be accurate.”

KOS-MOS paused, considering what this meant. “They are following us... we should be at Nourasia soon, however.”

Didymus nodded to Omega.

"Thank you, Omega. We should be working with the Nourasians, in many regards...of course, to help ensure that and to cement, perhaps, more political benefits, we have Miss Caraway along..."

The shuttle took off, descending on Nourasia's capital...

"Hm...they've really cleaned up the place. " Didymus remarked.

"Good. Looks nice, doesn't it?"

Soon they would be touching down...

... Okaaaay, that was NOT the reaction Elf was expecting. Otacon wasn't acting like a manly sort at all and seemed to be absolutely relieved when Elf appeared with those monomolecular wires. And now, he was tearing up and generally radiating relief, hugging her!

"... Uhhh... Sure! I'm... Glad I could help! And we REALLY need to start running. NOW."

Extracting herself from the man, she snapped her hand out, letting glittering wires cut another few bots away, then turned about and slammed a palm into the door. The area where she struck transferred from solid to plasma in just a few seconds, melting a large hold in the door.

She then used said plasma to bathe the are behind them in superheated matter, getting rid of the next incoming wave of defending spider-bots. With the way open, they were free to run!

[---]

Zwölf was also getting out, but she was getting out the way she came. After downloading the data from the mainframe, she burst through the doorway and straight through some of the spider-bots, grabbing onto one and disintegrating it into plasma, using the resulted super-energized matter to bathe the area in front of her like a shield.

A shield she kept up as she ran, knocking through bot after bot, destroying them with just a mere touch.

She and her twin had very special bodies. While they were nothing compared to Alita's current Imaginos 2.0 body, they were both using the Imaginos 1.0 bodies, which allowed them accelerated repair rate, much faster movement speed (though only Alita was able to successfully use such a body at Supersonic speeds) and most of all, direct Electromagnetic Field manipulation. and energy transfer modules.

Which allowed them to create and control plasma with just a thought.

Add monomolecular wires to that, and you have their entire armament. They didn't need much else.

Zwölf finally made it to the shaft which she entered, but found it closed. Using the remains of her plasma shield, she took a head start and rushed up the wall, slamming the shield into the top of the shaft and flash-melting an opening in the closed doorway, letting her through into the open air.

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

The Lightwing

chaos grimaced.

"I know. It's suicide to attack us in Hyperspace, but... I don't know. Someone just following us at a distance is making me nervous. They COULD have entered the tunnel by accident, but I somehow don't think so."

He looked at the edge of the "tunnel". When a ship touched the edge of a Hyperspace tunnel, they were subject to spatial warping, which usually destroyed a ship. Since Hyperspace was a sub-dimension of real space, the laws that governed there were different. And due to that, it has been strictly enforced that ships cannot touch the walls of the Hyperspace Tunnel.

chaos just hoped that there would be no fire that would knock them off course.

"I'll keep an eye on the ship, KOS-MOS. They might not look like they have weapons, but weaponry is also easy to conceal on a starship. We need to be careful. And if they are a tail, we need to lose them."

He sighed, and then seemed to brighten.

"... Say, have you ever been to Nourasia?"

-Space Mall-

The shots fired at Ben/Chromastone, and Ben defended, the bullets pinging off him harmlessly. He was made of crystal right now.

“And I think you're underestimating me, Fang!” Ben declared, “My name's Ben Tennyson, fully license Plumber, and trainee of The Doctor himself!”

He then charged at Nack, throwing a punch!

-Planet Planit-

Galv paused, swallowing the last of his burger, as Azula appeared, and suddenly offered them a job.

While they would need a job...Galv was suspicious.

“...Why?” he asked, “We're just two ordinary teenagers...”

-Hoth-

Shadow focused after forcing the one Artificial Chaos back, and fired a blast of energy at it.

“Chaos Spear!” Shadow yelled.

Silver appeared now, taking the skis off and focusing, attempting to grab another Artificial Chaos with his telekinetic powers!

The shuttle was setting down, and Didymus prepared to step off, giving himself a once-over to see if there was anything wrong with his uniform that required fixing.

"Alright...let's go make some friends." he chuckled.

Nack was not surprised at this shocking development. He just needed some more time. As Ben came at him, he threw his tail to ground. Surprisingly, he bounced upwards, missing the punch. He landed some eighteen feet back. A smile on his face, he holsters the pistol.

"Like I said. All I gotta do is get away. Hanging around fighting a chump like you is worthless to me." Nack banters. And with that, he turns and begins running. Surprisingly, he's pretty quick, even while holding a bag of money that weighs more than him..

“O-Oh right! We should run!” Otacon was NOT good at these sorts of situations. He was the kind of guy who liked to sit back on a computer, watching the action from a safe distance. Usually, if he was needed in combat, he would be “there” on via a remote control robot.

In this situation, he couldn't do such a thing. He quickly ran behind Elf, hoping that they could hold out until they could return to the Apocalypse, and back to their own time. Otacon had what he needed, now they just needed to...

“Stop them!”

Suddenly, the spiders were joined by more humanoid-like robots.

[The Lightwing]

KOS-MOS was designed to be 'the Ultimate Weapon'. She was equipped with a variety of offensive capability, but she was also quite equipped with defensive measures. One of them was a scanning system that could rival some of the best in the world – it could not, perhaps, outscan the Chozo Varia Suit, but very close.

With all that, KOS-MOS could not detect weapons... at least not active ones. She seemed convinced that their stalker, whoever or whatever it was, did not want them dead... at least not yet. It was possible they were just too afraid to engage in battle in hyperspace.

“I have not,” He suddenly turned the conversation, and she turned her attention to Nourasia. “Yet I have a comprehensive file on Nourasia.”

[Space Mall]

Kevin charged forward as Ben engaged Fang, and once more he took the small bit of adamantium from his pocket and transformed his skin to the same density and substance as the unbreakable metal.

He then jumped high into the air, and aimed a kick at Nack!

[Planet Planit]

Azula gave a small smile, and she leaned down so that she was on eye level with the two seated teenagers.

“Oh... I think you're a bit more than just 'ordinary'... it's okay, I won't tell anyone your secret...”

She held up her hand, and a small spark of lightning jumped from between her index finger and her thumb.

“You're in good company, with me.”

[Hoth]

The Artificial Chaos who was hit by the chaos spear exploded into bits; and a second one was suddenly grabbed by Silver. As he held it in place, Luna jumped forward and slashed at it with her gloved paw – the glove hummed and sent a jolt of electricity through the monster, and she jumped back.

“I think we've got them on the run!”

Of course, this was just three, and they would have to go deeper into the fortress...

[Nourasia]

“Colonel,” Rinoa spoke up as they landed and she stepped forward, a folder full of papers under one arm. “Remember, this is a diplomatic mission... so follow my lead on this one.”

There's something hilariously ironic about that.

[Crusader]

Munro paused as he noticed Rachel show up.

“Well hello there! You don't seem the the combat training type... what can I do for you?”

“Remember, this is a diplomatic mission... so follow my lead on this one.”


"The diplomatic mission is subserviant to the military effort, though, Miss Caraway. And while you may represent the civilian government to which the military is subservient...I think you still have no authority over me. With that said, I recognize that diplomatic maneuvering is probably much more your area of expertise...in any case, I'll do what I must, as will you. Either way, the time is now."

“Well hello there! You don't seem the the combat training type... what can I do for you?”

Rachel tried to ignore the more...flirtatious...parts of Munroe's comment.

"I'm First Lieutenant Silvit, the CO's aide...he simply asked me to convey his regret he did not personally spend a bit more time greeting you aboard, and intends to do so next time he can." she said.

Zwölf made her way back to the pickup point within just a minute of travel. Unlike Elf, she wasn't limited to moving at human pace, and the android was using the full speed capabilities she had access to, which was traveling very near Mach 1 on foot.

Once at the drop point, she sent up for a signal, the communicator flickering into life, Nova's voice expectantly floating from the image.

"Yeees? Zwölf! Have you retrieved it?"

The girl nodded. "I have the data, I have the logs and I will be sending the data to you. If you want the shipments, you can probably track them. The sample itself is something called the "Boss Formula", a genetic formula that formed the template for some of their projects-"

"-And was used to make Solid Snake and some other operatives. Huh. To think that Otacon wanted the original genetic formula... Does he want to create another Snake? That would be the most... Logical deduction."

Nova grinned.

"Looks like I won't need to be curious after all. It's basic geno-engineering. The man could have asked me to make something similar. But, I guess it's not that simple. Snake... HE was a good man, I suppose. A righteous man, to be sure."

Zwölf looked uncomfortable as she spoke hastily.

"Professor, we don't have time. Those two are stuck inside the base, and plasma would take too long to blast down the front door which is the closest exit to them. It's been locked down, I barely managed to escape through a secondary hatch."

Desty Nova gave a curt nod.

"I'll set Sechs to aiming and firing immediately. I'm sending a teleport signal Latch and fly, Zwölf! Nova out."

The communicator turned off, but the girl understood what Nova wanted. Sechs needed something precise to aim at. A beacon. She dove into her suit, pulling out what looked like a tiny, fuzzy ball with a propeller on the head and one large eye. It looked almost ridiculously cutesy, and she looked at it longingly before releasing it. The ball hovered back towards the facility, settling itself on one of the ridges of the massive door as Zwölf warped out...

[---]

Elf, in the meanwhile, got the signal from her twin and grinned.

"Looks like we're going to have to get over to the front entrance and hunker down for a bit!"

That's when more spider-bots and humanoid droid things appeared out of nowhere. She gave an exasperated sigh, throwing plasma down the hallway, using it as a sort of screen to pull Otacon into another side passage.

"This is getting ridiculous. What the hell would be so well-protected? This is just a garbage dump, not some high-tech research place!"

She changed direction ever so slightly to head for the main bunker doors, ones that have obviously been locked down the moment the alarm sounded. Why she was going there was yet unknown.

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

Lightwing

"Nourasia..."

chaos himself was looking up records. Nourasia... It looked like a really good place. It seemed a lot more... "Natural" in a way that industrial planets like Earth were not. He couldn't help it, he was actually looking forward to seeing the planetscape of Nourasia.

Not to say that it didn't have its industrial complexes and beehives of activity, of course. But those were not as common as the known industrial planets that were almost completely covered by cities, walls and steel.

"It looks like we'll be able to land pretty easily. We're getting close to Point Alpha, ready to change course."

Changing direction while in Hyperspace was impossible. A tunnel was directional, and only led from one place to another in a straight line. However, some things like solar bodies still presented themselves in Hyperspace as Hyperspatial Anomalies. These anomalies were the cause of many a death or loss in space when a ship collided with one. That's why travel was usually changed by "waypoints" or directional point-changers where the ship had to exit from a Hyperspatial Tunnel, create a NEW tunnel and use it at a different angle or direction.

FTL travel was truly Faster Than Light. But when the distances were measured in hundreds if not thousands of light-years, even FTL travel took an immense amount of time to get from place to place. Hyperspace allowed a general conversion of about 100-1, in other words the ship traveled at speeds of about 100 times the speed of Light in real space.

Not the best way, since dimensional portals were much quicker, but it was safer, stabler and much more energy-efficient.

"Aaaand... Leaving Hyperspatial Tunnel. Path to next checkpoint set. Converging coordinates. New Hyperspatial Tunnel in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Manifested. Ship aligning to tunnel. Point Alpha passed. Entering tunnel in 10... 9... 8... 7... 6.. 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... Entering tunnel."

And again, they were in Hyperspace.

"ETA to commercial line is 10 minutes. KOS-MOS, do we still have a tail?"

[Nourasia]

Rinoa paused, stepping in front of Didymus and shaking her head.

“Hey! I'm not trying to give you an order, I'm ASKING you to do what's best for both of us! We're here to try to secure Nourasia as a ally. You might expect them to be willing to help us because we saved their butts, but the Nourasians are generally disliking of other planets. It's possible they'll turn us down just to prove they don't need us. So please, I'm asking you to let me do my job! Just don't say anything that might irritate them!”

[TRS Crusader]

Munroe shrugged his shoulder.

“Eh, don't worry about it. I don't care if the CO greets me or not. I'm not some baby who needs coddling from his boss. I'm Ensign Munroe! I'm here to blow stuff when things get to dicey for the regular boys. All I need the CO to do is to give me something to shoot.”

[Unknown Planet, Months Prior]

Otacon frowned when Elf pointed out the ludicrous amounts of security at the disposal site.

“That's just the thing, this isn't JUST a garbage dump! It's a garbage dump for the top secrets of the military – specifically the one's they don't want anymore. High tech weaponry, bombs, mechas... pretty much all the stuff you DON'T want falling into enemy hands. While it is remote and uncharted, it can be found... the security is thick because it has to be, to prevent this technology from being stolen before it can be destroyed!”

[Lightwing]

KOS-MOS scanned... and scanned... but even with her advanced scanners, scanning while moving in and out of and back into hyperspace was confusing and difficult; and it seemed whoever was tailing them had gotten wise to her, and was attempting countermeasures.

“... I do not know. I last detected them prior to our latest tunnel entrance... but now it seems they are either not there, or hiding their presence... there is, however, an anomaly on the scans... but I cannot say that it is not interference from hyperspace...”

"Relax, Miss Caraway, please. We are on the same side here, I'd think, and I apologize for any indications to the contrary I've given. I fully intend to let you do your duty-as I expect you shall let me do mine-nor do I intend to offend the nourasians. With that said, I'm not sure where "following your lead" comes in, and while you do seem to specialize in these affairs, perhaps, I've had some diplomatic experience myself-heck, the Crusader actually hosted the local leader here for a bit a year back. Anyway, let's go."

Elf skidded to a stop at a turn, just barely stopping enough to prevent herself from being raked by laser fire from beyond the corner. She made sure to stop Otacon in his tracks as well, and followed that up with a quick communication signal to Nova.

They were close to the massive front entrance after all.

"Wait, you're telling me you're in this place just for the sample and nothing else? ... You're not really a scientist type, are you. You don't seem to have the curiosity."

She peeked behind the corner again, but backed off as said corner started taking laser damage. She didn't look exerted... Nor concerned. For whatever reason, she actually looked BOUNCY.

"Stay here, I'll take care of them. DON'T get shot. I'd hate to have you wounded on this so-far-perfect mission."

So saying, the girl bounced out of her hiding place, speeding ahead of the aim of laser weapons, while at the same time letting off a rather rude sound and generally taunting the machines on the other side.

"YOUR AIM COULDN'T BE WORSE!"

A laser scorched a mark dead-center of her chest, and she let out a loud "EEP" before ducking to the side, getting into another small passage on her right, only slightly ahead of Otacon's turn.

"Well, that didn't go too well..."

[---]

While Elf tried t make some headway against a rather smart blockade, Sechs was setting up the ruined-looking ship for a "drop." The ship slowly drifted into place, and then a small piece detached off the hull, floating towards the planet's atmosphere. The object accelerated much more quickly than it should have on a free-float and entered the atmospheric layer within seconds.

Then, a rocket ignited and the now-designated missile shed a layer of metal as a second layer began to heat, the Orbital Shell of a rather small-looking warhead heating until it was red, continuously accelerating and going way past terminal velocity for speed through the atmosphere.

It took the missile only a few minutes t reach the designated target: The little puff ball that Zwölf left on the front of the facility. The missile, upon nearing its target, shed the Atmospheric Shell, finally revealing a very sleek, pointed missile with quite a few stabilizer wings. The rocket thruster on the shell dropped as well, and the missile seemed to propel itself effortlessly through the air on absolutely nothing.

It radiated no heat. It's shell was made of radar and sound-absorbing material. It didn't displace the air around it. It was a completely stealthy missile that approached, untargeted by the facility's defensive systems.

The missile's impact was the only time when it was detected, but by then, it was too late. The missile contracted upon itself, super-energized particles slamming into super-energized particles inside the shell at critical speeds, the energy emitted giving way to a gravitational flux as a singularity formed, the quantum barriers shattering under the energy pressure. A corona flared into life as matter around it began super-compressing into a miniature Black Hole that was formed at point of impact, warping solid matter and completely annihilating anything within the diameter of the Event Horizon, just about 200 cubic meters in a perfect sphere.

The energy didn't sustain itself for more than 10 seconds. The Black Hole collapsed in on itself, suddenly lacking any sort of energy to sustain the artificial singularity. A perfect sphere was completely cut out of the front of the facility, jagged edges showing where matter was simply twisted and torn off. A large sphere of supercompressed matter remained in the center of the newly-made crater.

With door busted down, Elf and Otacon were free to move out.

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

The Lightwing

chaos also ran a perimeter scan, letting the videos pick up anything... Which picked up nothing but static and a small anomaly, same as KOS-MOS's description. He sighed, sagging in his seat just a little.

"Nothing this time, huh... Well, let's hope we lost the tail, but I won't bet anything on it. Keep course on Nourasia, we'll visit there for a while, try to blend in with the crowds a bit. Maybe we can find something to do there too, maybe we can help someone with something."

He leaned back.

"It will be just a few minutes. Once at the commercial line, it's only about 2 minutes of Hyperspace to reach Nourasia. I can't help but feel a sense of apprehension though. KOS-MOS, keep an eye on the scanners, I have a bad feeling about this. Something about all this is nagging at me."

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!!!
