John paused, watching as Kessler did... something to Cole. Then he surrendered. The former TerrInt agent shook his head.

“... It won't work, Kessler. You and Burke... two halves of the same coin... but both drown in madness.”

John turned, looking over to Lucy Kuo.

“Sorry, Lucy. Our days at TerrInt at over. They'll never accept you now that you're... changed. As for me, I have... things to decide.”

John turned and vanished in a puff of smoke and fire.

Lucy frowned, but said nothing.

[…]

Azula's voice – amplified by the speakers on the giant robot – boomed out like thunder, bouncing off the walls and sounding even louder for it.

“This is Evangelion Unit Zero Five. I made an interesting trade with a former NERV scientist, and got all of their EVA research... then I constructed this. It was simple with my mind and daddy's money. Ben... I can guarantee you that in front of you stands the single most powerful mechanize battle machine ever built.”

Suddenly, Eva 05 lifted its left arm, and moved with speed faster than something its size should have, trying to impale Ben on the lance arm!

[…]

Sama shuddered. He had a bad feeling...

“We need to follow Ben...”

[Los Angeles]

Rica started back towards the house with a sigh, looking over to Ethan.

“I'm worried about them,” Rica admitted quietly. “Burke... he's come to Melanie before.”

[Zegema]

“Eh? Oh, I have an idea.”

Asuka's eyes suddenly flashed red, and the edge of the candy bar melted into a puddle.

“There ya go.”

"Not what I had in mind, but okay-" Jason managed between kisses, brain a bit mushy at the moment. He wasn't sure whether to peg t on his headache or the fact that his soon to be wife was throwing herself at him once more.

Waaaaaiiittt.

"You're still hung up on that baby thing aren't you?" Jason said suspiciously.

What? Erin obsessing over something? Neeeevvvar.

[...]

Melanie hung onto Galv, as the two followed Rica and Ethan back to the house. The girl hoped her mother wasn't angry for her being late....And she REALLY hoped Jason wasn't still mad from before. She decided as they pulled up to the house, that if anyone else yelled she find somewhere else to stay for the night. Maybe she and Galv could ride around a bit more....

Soon enough the group arrived back. Instantly Melanie jumped off the bike, pulling her long hair from under the helmet. She then rushed in front of Rica's car.

"I need to talk to you when we get inside."

[...]

Kanna was still sitting alone, looking angry at life and holding a class of some kind of liquor she managed to find. She wasn't drunk, but rather feeling a bit out of it like Jason, sensing the tension in the house and reacting to it.

Of course unlike Jason she would NOT be asking for a massage from anyone. Instead she sat alone with her thoughts...

That's how she reacted to most things after all.


New Marais

"I had a feeling you were gonna say that...." Crystal said, looking into the spot which Ben disappeared. She was suddenly tugged on by Jade who seemed more at a rush then both of them together.

"Oh hurry up before Ben get's his butt kicked!!"

Rica was shocked when Melanie rushed over to him and mentioned wanting to talk. A while ago... before the babies... Melanie and Rica had bonded a bit. Back then, she seemed to take a liking to him... but that had been a very long time ago, and ever since the kids came along, Melanie had been very distant from Rica.

“Sure.” He said simply. He offered a slight smile, and then stepped out of the car.

“I'm going to go check on the Big Bot.” Bumblebee told them, and then he sped away to check on Optimus and the others.

[New Marais]

Sama nodded to Jade. He agreed with Ben's crazy girlfriend for once.

“Well... normally I'd say ladies first, but if this is dangerous, best to let me go... if there's a way to get hurt doing it, I'll find out.” Sama smirked.

He was very good at getting injured.

He jumped for the tree!

From two sides of the room came shots-powerful bolts designed to knock out cold.

Shepherd stood by with a vapor bomb in case Kessler was lying...


He'd secure the prisoner, then address the team and his allies.

Zegema

Didymus jumped as Asuka torched the bar!

"YIKES!"

He shivered for a bit...

"...good gosh, Asuka...I can't tell if you hate me or love me...but a dip in a bowl is starting to sound better and better now..."

He waited a bit, then approached the now half-torched candy.

Cautiously, he picked out a tiny piece and sampled it.

"...although this is actually tasty..."

Galv watched as Melanie went to talk with Rica about something. Galv parked the bike in the garage, put the helmets up, then headed inside as well.

He headed inside, then paused, seeing Kanna sitting alone. He frowned, remembering what Deyanira had said...

“...Kanna...” Galv said, after a moment, “Can I...talk to you?”



“Of course not dear,” Erin said, lying through her teeth, “I just want to help you relax...”

-New Marais-

“XLR8!”

Ben sped to the side, avoiding the EVA's attack, zipping up the wall then jumping at the robot.

“Cannonbolt!” Ben yelled, this time changing into the alien in question, curling into a ball and zooming at Azula's EVA for a high speed smash!



The attacks hit Kessler, and he was knocked out!

Cole coughed, attempting to get up, then fell back down again.

“Ugh...Shepherd...now...now that we got this guy...what...what's the U.T.R. gonna do about this planet, anyways?”

As Cannonbolt came flying towards Azula's EVA, there was a suddenly blinding flash – a powerful shield of glowing blue energy appeared all around the mechanical monstrosity, repelling Ben from being able to smash it.

“I told you. This is the most powerful mecha ever created. You have zero chance, Ben. Your strongest alien won't be able to make a single scratch on me.” Azula grinned menacingly.

[Zegema]

“Oh relax. I've gotten very good at my aim. You were never in any real danger.” Asuka dismissed his concerns.

She paused. “... Maybe a little danger. But not THAT much.”

Shepherd paused.

"Alright, Kaiden, Ash, let's get this guy to a dust-off site."

He paused, looking to Cole.

"This planet is in a state of total anarchy, from what I saw. A quarantine has already been set up. Chances are likely that the Terran Guard's gonna come in here and clean the mess up. Show all the miscreants acting like they're higher beings that the law still applies to them...martial law is likely to be declared here until order is restored. As for the people...well, that really depends. Those who cooperate, whatever their genes, will probably be treated as law-abiding citizens-unless they had a hand in this. Those who continue to act like they can make their own rules...well, again, the Terran Guard's being called in to clean this up and restore order."

Zegema

Didymus paused, looking up at Asuka for a moment.

"...again, I can't tell if you love me or hate me. Probably both."

Melanie led Rica back into the house, making a b-line for a back room to talk to Rica in (in effort to avoid Kanna). After a moment the girl closed the door and looked at Rica...She usually wasn't too keen on talking with him, after all he was a major part of her problems...But she supposed that today would be an exception.

"Earlier Burke had mentioned that Galv doesn't tell me about what really happened in NERV. I know I shouldn't believe anything he says, but Galv admitted it himself...I just want to know what they did to make everyone afraid of them. My mom won't even talk about them"

[...]

"You're back" Kanna said, eying Galv and assuming Melanie was with him...If not she supposed he would be a bit more worried. The woman sat up, looking to the boy and straightening herself out.

“Can I...talk to you?”

This would be interesting....Kanna raised a brow but gave a nod.

"What is it?"

[...]

Jason knew Erin was lying. The girl seemed focused on getting what she wanted, and right now that seemed to be another kid. Preferably a son. Preferably named Walter.....Who was he kidding, he had no say in the matter.

Jason sighed, but moved forward and kissed her.

New Marais

"We better not die" Crystal said with a frown, watching as her boyfriend ran for the tree. She then took a breath and did the same alongside Jade.

"Ben! You're not fighting this alone!" Jade called out. She then suddenly skidded to a hault looking up at Azula. "What the eff is THAT!?"

".....Okay, that's totally not fair." Crystal agreed.

Rica frowned, looking crestfallen at what Melanie wanted to talk about. He closed his eyes (behind his sunglasses) and silently cursed Burke once more. That insane man had already done so much to them... and now he seemed intent on making Melanie as miserable as the rest.

“... Melanie, there's a very good reason why Galv and Kanna don't want to tell you what happened at NERV. It was the most horrific time in any of our lives. It was a world of pain, not just physical, but mental and emotion too. The reason they don't want to tell you is because they don't want you to know what happened.”

Rica sighed, and looked down at Melanie. “... but, I've known you for a while now. You won't just drop this. So, if you really want to know, I'll tell you... but Melanie, trust me when I say you don't want to know.”

He sighed once again, waiting for her answer.

[New Marais]

Sama fell first, crashing through the holographic tree and ending up in an underground lab. He waited for Crystal and Jade, before the three ran on ahead to the larger room – where Ben was fighting a giant robot.

“... That looks like an EVA,” Sama frowned immediately. Asuka had worked with Philanthropy for a while, and he had seen Evangelion Zero Two before. That robot always gave him the creeps... and from what he'd heard...

“The EVAs were living robots. Not like Cybertronians. They were machines that were brought to life... I'm not sure on the details, but it involved trapping human consciousness into machines... just one more byproduct that those fine gentlemen at NERV gave the world.”

Sama shuddered. He had been lucky. While SeeD's experiments were similar to NERV, they were nowhere near as instructive or insane.

“Ben, this won't be easy.” Sama admitted.

[Zegema]

“Hey. If I hate you, I could just roast you like a marshmallow, or go give you to some kid as a toy.” Asuka shrugged. “I gave you freakin' candy, what else do you want?”

Didymus paused.

"...I don't suppose that means that you love me, then..." he chuckled a bit, shaking his head, and returned to munching.

"But you DID give me candy, that's true..."

Ben glared up at Azula, changing back to normal, holding up his Ultimatrix.

“That mech might be strong, but I can beat it with this!”

Ben then looked towards the others, grinning at them.

“You can't beat us!”

He slammed his hand down on the watch, changing in a flash of green light.

WAY BIG!” Ben declared, growing as large as the EVA.

“Taste my Cosmic Ray!” Way Big yelled, firing a blast of energy at Azula!



Cole frowned, then forced himself up off the ground.

“Hold on now...people are going to be scared, confused, angry. A lot of them probably aren't going to take well to heavily armed soldiers yelling at them to surrender,” Cole said, shaking his head, “If we aren't careful, a lot more people are going to get hurt...”

-Los Angeles-

Galv took a deep breath, looking at Kanna, then took a seat.

“Ummm...did you...ever meet my dad...before we all found him and Ethan?” Galv asked, really not sure how to ask the question in his mind.



Erin smiled, kissing him back.

Crazy, crazy girl.

"They both love me, I know..." Melanie stated, looking straight at the man. "But that also means they won't tell me anything. Anything they said was only because i've stumbled upon something I shouldn't have. But this time i'm asking. Tell me what they did."

Melanie was determined....She was going to regret this.

[...]

Kanna blinked, looking to the boy. That seemed like a strange question to ask...

"I haven't" Kanna answered, unaware of what Galv was thinking about "Why do you ask"

[...]

And once again Jason was sucked in....

Azula did not think her energy shield would hold against such a large blast, so she quickly adjusted EVA-5 and shot to the side, powerful rockets launching the giant mech fast enough to avoid the blast from Way Big.

“You think because I'm big, I should be slow?” Azula pondered over the speakers. “I've designed this thinking I would have to fight an entire UTR fleet, so I made it able to outrun and outgun the best ships out there.”

Azula smirked. “But, I don't mind if you think you can win. I do love that arrogance, Ben. There's nothing better than fighting someone who is convinced they can win... and proving them wrong!”

Azula raised the lance, and suddenly it burned with an electrical hum. Electricity charged around the lance, shining brightly and Azula fired a massive blast – sending arcs of lightning all around the room.

“Gah!” Sama yelled, jumping to the side to avoid one of the lightning arcs. “How do we fight this thing?” Sama frowned.

[…]

“Man, forget that noise.” Nix shook her head, looking at Shepherd. “You bring your boys down here and start waving guns around, they're gonna get hurt.”

Kuo looked offended. “They're just doing their job. There's no law here, someone has to step in and contain the situation.”

“Contain? Yeah, and what about the people who are scared? Who fight back because they're scared? You just shoot them down?”

“So what, you suggest we do nothing? Just stand and watch as those monsters kill everyone, and the planet is lost?” Kuo snapped.

[Los Angeles]

Rica sighed. He turned away from Melanie for a moment. This was a bad idea... but Rica was looking at the bigger picture. If Melanie understood, maybe she wouldn't be as rebellious... and if he didn't tell her, maybe she would eventually try to track down Burke or someone to find out...

“Melanie. You were born with your powers. Jason too. Most of the rest of us, though, weren't.”

He sighed once again. “Your mother and I... and I'd wager most of our other friends... were all regular people when we were born. One way or another, we all ended up in NERV.”

He turned to Melanie, bending down on his knees and taking off his glasses. “Your mother and I worked together most of the time. NERV experimented on us. They would inject us with all sorts of serums and liquids. Some of them burnt. Some of them made us sick. When they weren't injecting us, they bombarded us with energy. I don't know what kind.”

He rubbed his neck. “I remember being locked in a little room. They furnished it to look nice. Couch, shelves, lamps... but the real purpose of the room was to bombard us with energy. It would be blisteringly hot one moment... and as cold as ice the next. Usually, they'd do different things to Kanna than they did to me...”

He frowned. “All of that was just the prelude. One day, when I was alone, they took me into a room by myself. Strapped me into a large machine, and then... Burke came in. Your mother and I sometimes worked for him. Whenever he came, we knew something bad was happening.”

Rica sighed. It was clearly painful for him to talk about these things.

“... That day, when I was alone... he injected me with several odd liquids. He planted devices under my skin... and then, he attached himself to a machine. The next thing I knew, I was screaming in pain... so was Burke. Then it was over. They unhooked me, took me to another room, sat me down... and shot me in the face.”

“... I died... but I didn't. Well, you know.” Rica shuffled uncomfortably. “When I woke up, I was confused. I remembered dying... but I was alive. I was fine. Then, they stabbed me...”

Rica paused. He probably shouldn't be this blunt with Melanie.

“Err... well, they killed me a lot after that. Every day. Burke seemed pleased I wasn't able to die. I saw your mother less after that...”

Rica turned to her, and put a hand on Melanie's shoulder. “I don't know all the details of what NERV did to your mother, or to Galv, or Erin or anyone else. But I know what they did to me. They murdered me... day after day... just to make sure I could survive it. It was horrendous pain and I cannot express how horrible it was.”

Rica frowned. “Melanie, we don't talk about what happened at NERV because it was awful. I can only imagine what they did to Galv... and I feel terrible that they would do those things to a child. He probably doesn't tell you because he doesn't want you to know how bad it was. The same reason I don't want to know how bad it was for Kanna.”

[Zegema]

“... Don't push your luck. I can turn you into a smore.”

Asuka sighed, leaning back a bit. “... So you think that somehow you turned small, what, to make us get along?”

Melanie stayed silent as Rica explained the horrors of what happened to him in NERV. Most of it she could take in, but there was one point where her stomach dropped.

She could never imagine that moment where someone held a gun in front of your face, especially the first time. She couldn't even think of what possibly would go though your head the moment before you are killed.

She wondered if her mother was ever put in that situation....Even if they couldn't kill her (as she wouldn't get back up) they could have scared her half to death.

"Were you scared...When you thought you were gonna die..." Melanie asked quietly.

New Marais

"We slow it down!" Jade exclaimed, shooting Azula with the pig talisman...

Crystal gave a nod, using her control over water to freeze the EVA's legs with ice. She would try anything to help give Ben the advantage.

Shepherd looked to Kuo.

"Listen. TerrInt could use someone who's loyal and still has her head on straight even after all this. Don't worry about the rejection-babble that's been spewed here."

He paused.

"Look. Chaos and anarchy are prevalent on this planet right now. AS WE SPEAK, people are dying, and they are dying due to mass chaos and rioting and "super" brawling, any way you slice it. The application of force to solve this problem is NECESSARY. We can't AFFORD to just sit around and ask everyone REALLY NICELY to please stop fighting. They will be asked to stop fighting. When the Terran Guard shows up, we're going to ask planet-wide that people stop looting and murdering and cease their gang wars. Invariably, some, even many, won't. The fact is, if we don't do something forceful to restore order, the body count's only going to rise a lot faster than if we didn't."

He sighed.

"With that broadcast, it's not like people won't know what's going on. Will some people probably be caught in the crossfire? Yes. Still, think about it. Calling in toe Republic's finest to restore order and safeguard civilians isn't a bad plan."

Zegema

“... So you think that somehow you turned small, what, to make us get along?”

"I dunno. Maybe. To make us bond. Or something. Maybe it will come in handy when they're looking at you to figure out cures for stuff."

He chuckled.

"Of course, this is more hassle than bonding, isn't it?"
