[Planit Casino]

A young woman with a ponytail, wearing dark sunglasses even being indoors, was seated at a slot machine. She seemed to be playing, but really she was keeping an eye on the casino.

[…]

Benny, the number two man for Burke's criminal organization, ran the casino. A sleezeball and a wanna-be big shot, Benny was patrolling the poker room. At all times, he had four heavily armed guards with him.

[Nourasia]

Jordan shrugged a bit and nodded. It seemed like she was laying down a lot of odd rules that somewhat made the idea of dating her unlike what he'd heard about dating... then again, he knew dating Molly wouldn't end up normal.

“Molly, if you want to 'void' this relationship, that's fine... but first you have to give me a chance.”

[Small Cafe]

Rica nodded to the woman and gave her one of his large grins.

“Thank you. I do appreciate your help.”

He took Ethan to the side. “Hmph... a young woman talked with them? That's not much of a lead...”

[Gerald's Lair]

Gerald gave a little grin to Shadow. He knew he still had a chance for the Hedgehog's loyalty.

“... How? Why, with the power of time control in my hands, I can travel back and save Maria... and afterwords... well, all of those dangerous people who fight with no good reason... by simply traveling back to the foundations of these simplistic societies and I can take control of them, or perhaps steer them into a better place for all of us...”

Yeah, Gerald's crazy.

[TRS Crusader]

Sama frowned. He didn't like the Yeerks either.

“... A human, huh? Well... why doesn't someone head over to the Yeerk ship and find out what's going on?” Sama grinned.

"Don't worry, they'll be no voiding necessary if this doesn't end up as a strange by product of Nourasian alcohol" she explained with a grin, suddenly realizing they were still in the middle of a Nourasian bar and the dance floor.

"Well now that we've shared an impromptu kiss I suppose I can teach you how to not step on my feet when we dance" she explained, taking the boy's hand and placing it on her waist. "Sure the music isn't quite right but you gotta rock what you've got!"

TRS Crusader

Crystal eyed Sama, a slight grin on her lips "Are you volunteering us?" she asked, never quite trusting Sama's grin.

“... A human, huh? Well... why doesn't someone head over to the Yeerk ship and find out what's going on?”

"NO." Didymus said.

"We have enough issues on our hands now WITHOUT ticking off the yeerks. If you're bored, we can go down to the infirmary and revive Asuka then watch her scream and rant at me-I'm sure that should be BIG fun-but no one is boarding a yeerk ship just to spy on them. ...not without approval from the higher ups, at least."

[Nourasia]

Jordan nodded... until she brought up the dancing. He had forgotten all about the fact they were at a nourasian bar; his brain was a bit fuzzy from the idea of actually dating Molly. He was half-tempted to find some excuse to go tell Aikka, just to be a jerk...

Then, suddenly, his hands were on her waist. Jordan forgot about Aikka, and pretty much everything else.

“Dancing, huh? Well, let's give it a try...”

[TRS Crusader]

“Of course!” Sama grinned to Crystal. He had caught the slight grin on her lips, and he knew he could easily convince her to sneak into a Yeerk ship.

The hard part would be convincing Didymus... who had already objected, quite loudly.

“Naw, just knowing Asuka is safe is enough for me. Standing around in sick bay doesn't sound fun... sneaking onto a Yeerk ship on the other hand... now THAT'S my idea of fun. And helpful, too. We need to get some clue on where they stand.”

He shook his head. “If they're a threat, better to find out sooner instead of later. We still have the Zerg and Metarex... and from the rumors I heard, the Daleks too. That's a lot of stuff that wants to kill us. If the Yeerks are on that list, wouldn't you rather know for sure?”

"I would..." Didymus said, clearly agitated.

"...but have you ever considered that going aboard their vessel unbidden and SPYING on them may MAKE an enemy where there is none? It may only raise their anger and mistrust when MAYBE peace could have prevailed? Every nation takes such a risk when spying...but that is why I can't put my support behind it without the approval of the higher-ups and those in our government and military IN CHARGE of making these kind of decisions! Otherwise, what right has one man to, of his own accord, risk plunging his own people into war when those resposible for calculating these risks and making us ready have not given their approval? ...and why am I even ARGUING this with you?"

He shook his head.

"Just...no. We can't do it without the approval of the higher ups. I don't even know if you're still supposed to respect the chain-of-command, but it exists for a reason."

"Cool" Molly said realizing that Jordan had blanked out a bit " If there's one thing I picked up from school it's how to dance. We had a loooot of cheesy dances back at Stern"

The girl then started to sway a bit, moving her hands to the were on his shoulders. Despite the fast music they were dancing rather slow...And close.

TRS Crusader

Crystal grinned, sharing the same sense of adventure as Sama. "Sounds like fun!"

Of course then Didymus shot them down. The girl frowned a bit. "Come on Didymus lighten up!" she said, speaking rather formally to someone she didn't know too well.

“I agree with Didymus,” Peterson said, “There will be no sneaking aboard a Yeerk ship.”

Keep in mind, Peterson use to belong to the group that was Philanthropy's predecessor, and had his own dealings with the Yeerks before.

“It's too dangerous, and if they infect you, then everything you know is there's for the taking. Ships movements, locations of anyone important, tactical information, weapons information. And that's just the military aspect...” Peterson added. “They will know you're deepest fears, your darkest desires, if they get inside your brain. There is no hiding from them then. You could get infected, stroll back here and blow the ship up before we even knew what was wrong.

“The Yeerks don't want to kill us. That's what makes them different from the others...They want us as slaves.”

He shook slightly. “And I'm not going to let anyone take that risk. Not if I can stop it...”

Omega watched the humans, thinking.

“Perhaps we can bring the Yeerk to us, then?” Omega inquired, “If they truly say they want to cooperate...”

-Planit Casino-

“Alright then Melanie...” Galv said, nodding to the girl, blushing a little as she kissed him and went off. Well, she wasn't trying to leave with Kale, so he supposed that was a good sign.

Either way, he intended to make sure the alien boy didn't leave his sight.

“Do you know any of these card games?” Galv wondered, looking around, “Do they let people our age play them here, anyways?”

-Small Cafe-

“Hmmm...Well...” Ethan paused, then turned back to the waitress.

“Was the woman human?” he asked. The waitress paused, then nodded.

“Alright then,” Ethan grinned, “There's only a handful of human businesses on this planet...But then...why would one of them be interested in Galv and Melanie...”

His face paled a little, “Unless they knew what they were...”

-Gerald's Lair-

“You can't do that with the time line...You'd destroy it!” Silver shouted at Gerald. “Just because bad things happened, doesn't mean you have to condemn it all...”

Shadow frowned, looking from Silver to Gerald. Who should he trust? Who should he believe?

He shook his head. Those images, from Silver's memory...they couldn't be true...but if they were...

“Professor...If you change things...save Maria...would you have any use for me?” Shadow wondered.

"THANK YOU, Peterson." Didymus said. "He makes some good points as well." he said.

"Come on Didymus lighten up!"

Didymus raised an eyebrow.

"Who's she?" he asked Sama.

"And I will "lighten up", perhaps, when we've this battle and its consequences safely wrapped up. And when we aren't risking another war against orders..."

He shook his head again, clearly worked up.



“Perhaps we can bring the Yeerk to us, then? If they truly say they want to cooperate...”

"I say we let the diplomats do their work, perhaps they'll be calling with an assignment for Miss Caraway soon..."

Melanie disappeared into the crowd, but making a sudden turn when she reached the bathroom, heading around the poker tables. Sure supposed she would ask a few people about Benny and perhaps gain a lead about his whereabouts.

The girl headed to a table where she saw a few men playing a card game. She waved her hand in front of her face as smoke invaded her personal space. Melanie gave a little cough but stood her ground. "Excuse me! Do any of you know a man named Benny?"

At first none of the men paid attention to her until she tapped one of them on the shoulder.

"Hey girlie! Don't ya see we're playing a game here!?"

"Uh...Sorry...I'm just looking for him....He's...Uhhh.."

The guy seemed to be losing interest

"Uhhh my dad!"

That seemed to catch the man's intrest. He turned around (thus puffing a large cloud of smoke in her face "You do look like him...I didn't know he had a kid!"

Melanie gave a little cough but stayed there

The man motioned towards a long hall way "The security guards should be able to help you kid, they'll call your daddy for ya!"

Melanie nodded and turned to leave towards the security "thanks!"

[...]

Kale gave a nod "No one will give you a problem here, everyone just likes to have a bit of fun! Oh! Let's play some poker! You have a good poker face dont'cha?"

“You both raise very valid points. But you're forgetting one thing... all of those objections you have only matter if we get caught. Which we won't.” Sama frowned, crossing his arms.

“As for having to worry about being infected... not really, Peterson. Philanthropy uses nanomachines... with them, you can monitor our health the entire time from a secure computer console. Those nanomachines deactivate when a foreign host takes control of the body... I know, because that's what happened to Asuka.”

Sama leaned against the wall. “... But there's no chance of convincing you two, is there? Well, your loss. I'll be calling the Ragnarok over, and Crystal and I will be leaving as soon as it arrives.”

[Small Cafe]

Rica frowned.

“If a human business targeted them because they know what they are... in that case, we should look for any companies with ties to genetics.”

[Nourasia]

Jordan tried his best to dance, but all he could think about was the fact that the dance had turned slow... and the two were awfully close together. Jordan gulped and attempted to keep his cool, but he had a feeling he wasn't a strong dancer.

[Gerald's Lair]

Gerald frowned. Shadow was disappointing him, and Silver was just plain annoying.

“... I see... so you care more for yourself than Maria? But what do you care what use I have for you? You seem to have been getting along quite well without me.”

[Planit Casino]

As Melanie headed off towards security, a man in a dessy suit and a hat approached her.

“Whoa, kid. Slow down. Who you looking for?”

Nourasia

The two danced a bit awkwardly for awhile, neither them saying much over the music. Molly's mind started to wandered and suddenly a thought came to her mind "Wait....Is that why you're always so angsty around Aikka and stuff?"

Molly stopped dancing, a small grin on her face "Were you...Jealous?"

Planit Casino

Melanie looked up at the man, smiling at him. "Umm yes! I'm looking for...My dad! He's the owner of the club, his name is Benny! One of the guys said that I could call him from security!"

Jordan was just starting to have a good time when suddenly something clicked in Molly's brain and Jordan groaned, realizing that she now had very dangerous information, and she was probably going to have a lot of fun at his expense.

“... Well, yeah. You always acts so... ugh, whenever he was around.” Jordan frowned.

[Planit Casino]

The guard almost fainted.

“You're Benny's daughter? No way... I didn't know da boss had a daughter...”

The man shrugged. “Okay... here's the keycard to his room on the thirteenth floor.”

Yup. If you're a cute 13 year old girl, you can get the key to Benny's room just that easy. Wait, no, that sounds wrong for a different way than I meant. Eh. Probably still true.

[…]

Up in his room, Benny was eating a sandwich. Not every bad guy can be doing sinister things all the time!

Galv nodded to Kale, “Yah, I have a good Poker face.”

He headed to the Poker table.


Meanwhile, the older man from earlier got up after he finished a hand, taking his winnings and meandering along...

-Small Cafe-

“Let's go look then,” Ethan said, “I can call Samuel and Kanna.”

-T.R.S. Crusader-

Peterson looked at Sama, frowning.

“You're still willing to risk another war with another alien species?” Peterson asked, “Because that's what you're doing if you sneak aboard that ship. I don't like the Yeerks. That's a well known fact. But we already have the Metarex, Zerg, and rumors of some aliens called the Daleks right now. Our only allies with enough fire power to lend a hand are the Andalites. That already puts us in a delicate state with the Yeerks.”

-Gerald's Lair-

“Maria sacrificed herself for me...she...she wanted me to live my life...” Shadow muttered.

His hands glowed with Chaos energy again, “She wanted me to keep people safe...”

Shadow turned suddenly, away from Gerald.

“You want to punish people for crimes they haven't committed yet. I can not believe that Maria would believe that to be the right thing to do. I am sorry Professor, but I can not let you have that gun. Amy, Silver...let's go...”

Shadow paused, looking to Luna, “You are free to come if you wish, or stay.”

Rica nodded. “give them a call. I'll call up a... source... and try to get a list of human-owned businesses on this planet, and any that could be interested in genetic research.”

Rica took his phone and he gave a call to one of his shady netherworld contacts. He nodded, and after a few moments, he had a list of a few companies. Veidt Industries one of the,.

[TRS Crusader]

Sama shook his head.

“I already told you I'm not going to sneak in. The Third has tactical command here, and I'll respect Didymus decision. That said, if the Yeerks are plotting behind our back, we need to know about it sooner rather than later. Relax, old man, I'm just getting out of HERE. You guys clearly don't need my help or want my advice.”

Sama shook his head.

[Gerald's Lair]

Luna frowned, her arms crossed. She let out a small sigh.

“... I'm sorry, Professor... I agree with Shadow. Playing around with time is dangerous... and I learned a lot with Desty Nova... and not everything good. One thing I know is that we should use our knowledge to help people... not for ourselves...”

Gerald frowned.

“... Fine. Go.”

"Good, maybe we can win something nice for Melanie!" Kale said with a smile, taking a seat at the large table and getting a few cards....

For some reason I don't imagine Kale being that good at Poker.....

[...]

Melanie took the key card and bowed her head "Thanks!" she said before quickly rushing off the the thirteenth floor.

As she stood in the elevator the girl tried to calm her nerves down a bit. She fixed her hair and dress and took a few deep breaths.

With a ding the elevator door opened.

Nourasia

Molly raised a brow "I act so ugh? What's that supposed to mean!?"

Probably not the smartest thing to say to the girl.

Gerald's Lair

Amy nodded following Shadow and looking to Luna. She hoped the girl would come along...It was so nice having another female around.
