[Mobius]

[Shuttle]

Ryand’r was silent as Amadeus spoke. He did not know what the General meant by his analysis of Silver. His people did not know much about the political situation on Mobius, only that it was delicate and difficult and that the Mobians seemed bitterly divided on what would be best for them.

He did not pretend to have the answers, but he hoped that the Mobians would consider his offer. Their help could be invaluable.

He stood by silently, using his wrist-mounted device to contact the fleet in orbit and monitor the battle with the Metarex.

[Battlefield]

The Metarex were thrown around and blasted down by Silver and the others who bravely fought against them. Knuckles was there, running through the ranks of the Metarex and knocking down one after another with his powerful fists.

Despite everything they did, the Metarex kept coming. Explosions rocketed the ground, flames spewed high into the skies, and the battle raged on…

[Shuttle]

The older man in the military uniform simply shook his head.

“It’s not a military vessel. This one is a civiy transport frigate for hauling heavy cargo. It’s actually a prototype model… the company that made it is experimenting with a new engine system. Supposed to give twice the power and cost half as much to manufacture. I’m sure you can see why the military was interested. I was here to observe the trial run and give my reports to EarthCom, for potential investment in a military model.”

He sighed. “But the company had one demand, non-negotiable… they wanted to test it way out here. Apparently they’ve been the target of corporate espionage several times, and we’re paranoid that someone else would steal their design. At the time, I didn’t think it would matter… but now, I sure as hell regret ever agreeing to the testing this far out.”


Meanwhile, Samus was intrigued by what Omega had to report… intrigued in the worst way.

“An AI? Are you sure?” Samus asked, and there was the unmistakable hint of worry in her voice… and when Samus Aran is worried, you should be too.

“Omega, did you happen to record the conversation with this AI?”

She was worried for a very good reason… the Space Pirates being this aggressive in Republic Space… the presence of Phazon… an Elite Commando being on the ship… and now news of an AI… it all led her to one horrific possibility.

[Arkham Prison Satellite]

Sama shook his head as he checked on the guards. They were dead, as he had expected… but he had to be sure before he just rushed off.

“Good idea.” He said to Jimi, as he grabbed his PDA and tried to hail the Ragnarok… but there was something blocking his signal. So he tried for his Plumber’s badge, but it was blocked too.

“Damn… Ikari has outside help. Something’s blocking all signals… pretty advanced, too.” Sama growled. “Come on, we have to hurry before Ikari escapes!”

[Haven]

[Mara’s Apartment]

The mysterious Mara was still in the strange, hidden room in her apartment. She stood in front of viewing screen. There were two portraits on the screen, and a blank spot where a third would be.

“Gentlemen… I was contacted by our benefactors. You’ll be glad to know that Gendo Ikari is, even as we speak, escaping from Arkham.” Mara explained.

“What took him so long?” One of the portraits, a male voice asked. He broke off into a chain of disturbing laughter.

“Not everyone is as skilled at escaping prison as you.” Mara replied. “The question remains, how shall Ikari escape the station?”

“Hey, shouldn’t you be able to pull that off easy-peasy?” The second voice asked. “I mean, come on, you’ve got that fancy ship you refuse to let me mass produce.”

“You couldn’t even if you tried, Jack.” Mara replied, annoyed by the man. “Besides, I’m already taking too many chances. SHIELD has me in their sights.”

“Didn’t The Master take care of that?” The second voice asked.

Mara shrugged. “Perhaps… but The Master could be an even bigger problem for me than SHIELD.”

“Look, none of this matters.” The first voice broke in. “Not after tonight… but are you sure you don’t want me to handle it, myself? I’d LOVE to…”

Mara shook her head. “No, Joker. Believe me… the package I acquired will be more than enough to kill them both.”

“Both? So you’re still convinced The Doctor will show up?” The second voice asked. “How exactly can you be so sure, darlin’?”

“Trust me… he won’t miss this party.” Mara replied with a wicked grin. “Just to make sure, though, I’ll send Azula to give him a message. Once he realizes what it is… he won’t be able to stay away, even if he wants to.”

“Hahahahah…” The first voice laughed once more. “So in the course of just one day, we get Ikari back, we deliver a solid blow against the UTR and we get to kill the Doctor? It’s going to be a good day, ha…hahaha… AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!”

“Hmph.” Mara did not seem to share his mirth. “At least someone is enjoying all of this… I’m just eager to get it done, so I can get back to my experiments.”

"Rica and Kanna weren't as much help as I thought they'd be" Jason said with a sigh, rubbing his eyes. He headed out into the street, kissing the top of Erin's head. "Don't worry about it. I'll handle it"

[....]

"…So maybe it’s best if Melanie stays with Jason for a little while?”

Kanna stiffened, turning to Rica with a glare that could melt ice. "......What did you say?"

From her spot Melanie gave a little gasp. "But I don't want to live with Jason! I want to live with Ga-" She gave a little 'eep' as her mother glared back at her.

"Did Jason put you up to this!? AUGH i'm going to KILL that boy! No wonder he rushed off!" Kanna exclaimed. "This is none of his business or yours. Melanie's my child and you can go now."

How did you expect Kanna to react.

Melanie gave a groan. Obviously no one would consider her opinion on the matter.

Arkham Prison Satellite

Crystal rushed with the others, knowing they didn't have much time before they would be faced with VERY angry and violent criminals. With a full on riot imminent the girl prepared her bending. She had no problem bloodbending a bunch of bad guys if it meant they weren't killed.

"I'll go first" she said confidently.

[Kanna’s Apartment]

Rica simply gave his obnoxious grin and took a step forward towards Kanna. He adjusted his sunglasses for a moment, fiddled with the sleeves of his tattered old coat, and then slowly started to speak.

“… Actually, it is my business, and Jason’s too. Kanna you’re not the only person who cares about Melanie, and you’re not the only person who has been watching after her and protecting her.”

Over the last couple of years, since Rica reunited with the Narroh family, he, Ethan, Jason and the others had all helped to keep an eye on Melanie – especially when she would run away.

“Melanie’s hardly a child anymore. In a couple of years, she’ll legally be an adult and you know the minute she turns eighteen, she’s going to run off with the redhead and she’ll probably only come back when she’s got a couple of kids and needs a babysitter.”

Rica shrugged his shoulders. “I know you don’t want any of that to happen… but if you don’t start making some compromises, it’s exactly what will happen and you know it. So why not take the best first move and let Melanie stay with Jason for a little while?”

Rica grinned. “You know Jason won’t allow any hanky-panky going on between Melanie and Galv.”

[Arkham Prison Satellite]

Sama activated his laser saber and rushed down the hall after Crystal, all the while trying desperately to contact the Ragnarok, or the Plumbers.

However, as they rounded a corner, they would hear a lot of screaming, and see large pools of blood on the walls and the floor.

“Oh… what the hell!?” Sama gasped.

A terrifyingly giant alien with scaly skin, yellow eyes and massive teeth was standing at the far side of the hall.

He had a guard in his arms, and was biting the man through his armor. Blood was leaking from the guard, and it was clear he was either dead already or would be very quickly.

“That’s Killer Croc.” Sama gasped. “He’s an alien who crashed on Earth and hid out in the sewers under New York. He killed over fifty people in a eight week period, including several cops when they finally found him in the sewers and tried to arrest him. He also throws rocks at people."

Didymus nodded.

"Alright...you were along to observe? Still, this whole situation is odd. Pirates may not normally come here, but we're close enough to front lines that I'd think most civilian craft would try to stay away if at all possible...one more question, what was Caraway doing on board?"

He was usually more or less suspicious whenever Rinoa was involved in something.

There sounded like there was...worry...in Samus' voice.

"I also spoke with this AI, or something...it seemed like it was a leader, but all things considered, I suppose I have no real or definite way to tell it as such. It's what demanded that I go to the frigate, then said that this had been interesting, or we had been, or something..."

He had learned enough of Samus' adventures to know what she was thinking.

"Strange for pirates to come to this area, but...I suppose the circumstances were favorable..."

The Benediction had began processing and decontaminating those who had gone aboard the frigate.

Mobius

When the shuttle set down, the party inside had a short walk, to the hidden stronghold of Knothole Villiage. Updated from its "Freedom Fighter" days, the village appeared rustic enough on the outside-but many buildings and caves led to underground facilities and such concealed as best they could be.

“Come on… new engines that work better than what we have and cost less? Lots of people were skeptical at that claim, including the politicians. Caraway’s on one of the committees, apparently they wanted to see first-hand if the engines could meet the claims.” The officer explained.

Samus, meanwhile, was only growing more concerned the more she learned.

“Colonel! I assume your people recorded the call from this AI? Send it to my ship. I need to see if I can get a voice match…”

Didymus nodded.

"Ah, thank you..."

He did not say more (though being reminded that Rinoa was now on a committee involving the Republic's defense, or even in any leadership position in its government at all, was rarely an encouraging thought for him).

“Colonel! I assume your people recorded the call from this AI? Send it to my ship. I need to see if I can get a voice match…”

"We can send it to you. Let me see..."

He made the arrangements, and sent it to her.

The Benediction processed the people who had been aboard the frigate, dealing with any phazon contamination, and soon enough, Didymus was back aboard the Crusader.

He had made sure the Benediction tended to Asuka, or was looking her over, though...he was in the war room, still keeping in contact and reflecting on/debriefing the situation.

[TRS Crusader]

It was not long after the files were sent to Samus’ ship that she docked with the Crusader, and just a few minutes after Didymus was back aboard the bridge, she arrived.

“We have a serious problem, colonel.” She told him as she walked in. She was still in full-armor, although the visor to her helmet was up. She moved over to the computer and sent some files, projecting a holographic image of what appeared to be an enormous brain in a jar.

“This is Mother Brain, perhaps the most advanced artificial life form ever discovered. It is essentially a massive computer, but powered by a brain… a frightening fusion of technology and biology. It’s also supposed to be dead.”

Samus was clearly agitated.

“Mother Brain was the supreme leader of the Space Pirates a few years ago. Back then, they weren’t just a minor problem – they were a major threat. Mother Brain should be dead… I destroyed the science facility the pirates were using as their base, there’s no way Mother Brain could have escaped in time.”

She sighed. “… But, since it’s an artificial life form, I suppose it could have had some back up copy… or maybe there was an escape pod I overlooked… I don’t know, I can only speculate. What is NOT speculation is that the voice that contacted you was Mother Brain.”

She leaned against the console. “This is bad, Colonel. It’s no wonder why the Space Pirates have attacked so brazenly… they have their leader back.”

-Haven-

Galv would have loved it if Melanie could come back and live with him, but he did know how that would look to the adults, which is why he hadn't gone berserk when Melanie went to live with Kanna.

Not that he liked it, but Kanna hadn't tried and kept him and Melanie away completely.

But with Jason...Galv liked Jason, more or less. He knew Jason was protective of Melanie too, but Jason wasn't nearly as scary as Kanna.

“Maybe it would be better if you lived with your brother instead of your mother...” Galv said quietly, looking towards Melanie, “You'd probably have more freedom and be able to get out more...”

Though she'd also have to deal with Erin...



“Alright then...” Erin said, “But if you need me to help with anything...I might not remember a lot, but I'm not helpless.”

She paused, wondering if she should bring up that she knew Jason had been dealing with some pain, then decided to wait for him to bring it up to her.

“Why don't we pick up something to eat and head back home?” Erin asked, “We still need to figure out a date for our wedding...”

-Arkham Prison Satellite-

Jimi frowned, tapping at his wrist.

“The Ragnarok is docked with the satellite...If one of us can get there, we might be able to punch out an SOS... And I could get my armor,” Jimi mentioned to Sama, “I don't think the four of us can take down every inmate in this place.”

He eyed Killer Croc, knowing the little laser he had on his wrist would be, at best, a minor annoyance to such a beast.

-Mobius-

“It's been a while...” Amadeus said, looking over Knothole Village, “Almost makes one nostalgic for the days of Robotnik...”



“There's...a lot of them...” Silver said, being pushed back and ending up by Knuckles, glancing towards the echidna, “But we can't give up!”

“CHAOS BLAST!”

An explosion of energy ripped through several Metarex, Shadow having shown up with Knuckles and Silver now, using his Chaos powers to blast through the Metarex

“Sonic's in the air, fighting the ships,” Shadow mentioned to the two, “Eddie's informed me there's some other forces, calling themselves The Dominion, helping us out as well against the Metarex.”

“Well the more the merrier,” Silver said, turning and blasting down a Metarex, “But there's a lot of them...”

-T.R.S. Crusader-

“I was unable to determine how advanced this A.I. was in my short time interacting with it,” Omega said, listening to Samus, “I am an advanced A.I. myself, but I was not programmed for certain things.”

Omega felt a little uncomfortable admitting that there was another A.I. out there who could beat him at something, even if it wasn't just full on combat, “I wish I could be of more help against this foe. Some of my predecessor's in Eggman's E-100 line used biological...components, in their power and use, but by the time I was created Eggman stopped using them. I can share those files with you if they think they will help, though I believe the U.T.R. should have them as well, from when they first found me.”

Melanie pouted a bit when Galv suggested that perhaps she should agree to live with Jason. "But I want to live with you" she said with a frown. Of course she knew that would never happen....At least not until she was 18....Uggggggh.

“I know you don’t want any of that to happen… but if you don’t start making some compromises, it’s exactly what will happen and you know it. So why not take the best first move and let Melanie stay with Jason for a little while?”

"Since when are you parent of the year?" Kanna asked with a brow raised. "Melanie needs structure. That's hardly how I would describe Jason"

And she would call herself that?

“You know Jason won’t allow any hanky-panky going on between Melanie and Galv.”

Kanna stiffened and Melanie groaned. "We weren't doing anything to begin with!"

[...]

Jason blinked away the pain, deciding to ignore it for a moment in favor of happier things. "The wedding? Uh yeah!"

He hadn't forgot that the two were not married...But it hadn't been a priority as of late. "I suppose we should do that soon. I mean, you've been pretty patient so far, and so had 'Lana"



Arkham Prison Satellite

Crystal gasped, shuddering a bit at the sight before them...Apparently this think...This Killer Croc....Was going to be a challenge.

"How do we fight something like that..." she whispered in a panicked voice.

"How do we fight something like that..."

“Like THIS!” Kimi growled, and she launched forward at massive speeds and threw a punch at Killer Croc, catching him in the chest and throwing the massive, scaly monster back into the wall! Croc was indented into the wall, which was bent and broken around him.

“Careful!” Sama shouted. “We ARE on a space station! You break the wrong wall and we all die, Kimi.”

“Yeah yeah yeah.” Kimi dismissed his concerns. She tried to kick Croc in the face once more, but Croc shot out his hand and grabbed her by the ankle and tossed her across the hallway so that she slammed into Sama, knocking him down.

“I’ll make dust out of your bones!” Killer Croc roared, rushing forward with his claws and clashing at Jimi and Crystal!

[…]

Meanwhile, Gendo and Shinji turned down another hallway. Suddenly as they did, they found a strange pyramid in the middle of the hallway. It was about six feet tall and red, with gold trim.

“… Ah… our ride is here.” Gendo smirked. He stepped forward and knocked on the pyramid; and suddenly a door seemed to open. Gendo and Shinji stepped inside, and a moment later the pyramid disappeared.

[Mobius]

[Battlefield]

“The Dominion? Great… let me guess, now we’ve got two foreign powers wanting to get involved in Mobius…” Knuckles grunted as he punched one of the Metarex apart with his powerful fists.

Knuckles was not a big fan of the UTR, or anyone else… he wasn’t even that big of a fan of the Houses. His main concern was to protect the Master Emerald; beyond that most other things just tended to annoy him.

[TRS Crusader]

Samus looked over to Omega as he mused about the AI that he had interacted with. She simply shook her head.

“If the AI you met was Mother Brain, then it’s incredibly advanced. Mother Brain was… is an extremely advanced artificial life form. Even today, the brain is said to have more raw powerful than even the strongest of supercomputers… and Mother Brain is both a brain AND an extremely advanced computer.”

When Omega offered Eggman’s old files, Samus shook her head. “Thanks, but if this is Mother Brain, then she’s going to be far more advanced than anything Eggman could create.”

She didn’t quite realize how that might sound to Omega.

[Mars]

[Bar]

On the outskirts of a mine on Mars sits a small town, mostly populated by the miners. Between the town and the mine is a small bar, where many of the miners unwind from a hard day of work.

The bar was relatively empty today, save for three old men in the corner who were drinking heavily, the bartender, and a handful of other patrons.

Suddenly the door chimed as a young woman walked in. It was Azula Veidt, the enigmatic woman who had helped her father with the New Marais attack, worked for (and betrayed) Mister Burke, and was currently the number two in the Red Lantern Corp.

“’scue me, missy, but are you old enough to be in here?” The bartender asked.

Azula raised her left hand and pointed two fingers towards the bartender. A moment later, lightning blazed, shooting from her fingers and striking the bartender in the chest. The bartender shook violently and fell over dead.

“Everybody out!” Azula demanded.

The old men yelped and scrambled out, as did most of the other patrons. One of the miners, however, hesitated. He reached under his jacket and grabbed a gun and pointed it at Azula.

“You freeze!” He shouted.

Azula just groaned. “Oh, please.”

Azula spun around, kicking in the air and shooting a fireball at the man – it turned him into a charred-and-crispy corpse on the floor.

“There’s always one idiot…” Azula muttered to herself. She walked over to the bar, and pulled something out from her pocket. A small device which she sat on the table and activated, broadcasting a signal that would seek out Plumber’s badges.

“Attention pathetic Plumbers. This is Azula Veidt. I am transmitting my current location in addition to this message. Right now, the Red Lantern Corp is poised to attack the largest and most populated city on Mars. We will pain the roads red with the blood of the citizens… unless The Doctor meets me here in the next five minutes. He comes alone and unarmed – that means no screwdriver – or else a lot of people die.”

She switched off the device, and waited.

Galv frowned as well, “Yah, Melanie and I haven't been doing anything like that. We can control ourselves.”

A very thinly veiled barb at Kanna...with all the babies crawling around here.

Ethan continued to stay quiet and out of the way for now, knowing it would be dangerous to draw attention to himself, instead continuing to play with Aaron and Addrianna.



Erin smiled at Jason, “It's okay, it's not your fault. Lots of stuff has been happening. Besides, I'd rather take the time to make sure it's right then to try and rush something...”

“Help is help!” Silver said, “And I'm glad for it!”

He focused, creating another giant hand as a construct, smashing through some more Metarex.

Shadow frowned, shrugging, “I was just passing on the information. I could care less about the politics of this world...”

Silver paused, hearing his Plumber's badge make a chime, but he didn't have time to check it...

-Earth-

Ben was at a Mr. Smoothy's, sipping a delicious beverage, possibly with Jade, Gwen, and Kevin as well, enjoying the time off for now, when his Plumber's badge went off.

“Attention pathetic Plumbers. This is Azula Veidt. I am transmitting my current location in addition to this message. Right now, the Red Lantern Corp is poised to attack the largest and most populated city on Mars. We will pain the roads red with the blood of the citizens… unless The Doctor meets me here in the next five minutes. He comes alone and unarmed – that means no screwdriver – or else a lot of people die.”

Ben stiffened, narrowing his eyes...Azula...He had fought her on New Marais...Almost killed her too in his rage...

He stood up, “We need to stop her...”

-T.R.S. Crusader-

Omega shifted his shoulders slightly, looking towards Samus.

“Most of what Eggman creates are inferior designs,” Omega agreed, “But even if I was not designed to fight another A.I. on a programming scale, you will find no A.I. who can best me in a combat situation.”

-Azmuth's Ship-

The Doctor was quiet, staring down at his badge, Azmuth standing on the table by him, silent as well.

“You don't have to go alone,” Azmuth said, “You could go get Ben and the others...I could join you...”

“No...I can't risk that...” The Doctor said, standing up straight, turning towards his T.A.R.D.I.S., sitting in the corner of the room. “I can handle this...”

He opened the T.A.R.D.I.S., stepping inside...

-Mars-

Not long after Azula's announcement, a small blue box appeared on Mars...

Rica paused, looking to Galv… he quickly glanced around the room to make sure there were no sharp objects… because if there were, Kanna would probably be embedding them in Galv’s face.

[Mobius]

Battlefield

“Today’s help is tomorrow’s invader.” Knuckles grumbled in his usual distrustful nature. He slammed another Metarex down, hoping that their numbers were thinning…

… and then he looked up and saw a large Matrex ship. It wasn’t the kind used for space battles, but rather a smaller version that was designed to be a troop carrier.

“There! If we knock that ship down, we might be able to stem the tide!” Knuckles called.

[Earth]

Kevin sipped on his smoothie even as the message played. He put the smoothie cup down and looked over towards Ben.

“… You should probably try to get to that address and help the Doctor. The rest of us should head to the Martian Capitol and see if we can find those Red Lanterns and stop them from attacking the innocent.”

Kevin… actually has a smart plan? Good Lord. It’s a miracle.

[TRS Crusader]

Samus looked towards Omega and raised an eyebrow. Had she offended him? It wasn’t her intention, but Samus could be… blunt.

“I meant no offense… but believe me, Mother Brain is no simple A.I. I’m not eager to fight her myself.”

Samus sighed. “This whole situation is just… the worst.”

[Mars]

Azula was now waiting on the bar stool, drinking a beer despite being underage, and holding a stick with a marshmallow on the end of it.

She was toasting the marshmallow over the smoldering chest cavity of the man she set on fire.

… Yeah, underage drinking suddenly becomes a lot less of the focus.

[…]

Outside, as the police box appeared, four figures suddenly flew up towards it – Red Lanterns.

“Doctor!” The biggest of the Red Lanterns growled. “Come out of your box, slowly… and bring no weapons! Azula just wishes to talk for now… but if you try anything, the Martian Capitol will burn to the ground along with millions of its citizens!”

Didymus paused.

"The worst, Miss Aran? We just stopped an operation that this thing itself was overseeing. It certainly isn't ideal, but we at least rescued some hostages, and gave 'em a black eye for it."

He paused again.

"Still, this really could have gone better on a number of counts...and it certainly isn't a good omen..." he sighed. "...the LAST thing we need right now is yet ANOTHER problem..."

"...at any rate, I'll report this and we'll see what happens."

“Today’s help is tomorrow’s invader.”

No sooner had Knuckles said that then Hall's voice came over a comm channel.

"Stand by, one of our last remaining air wings making a run now..."

A line of Republic craft hit the troop transport with a salvo of missiles, causing it to lurch in mid-air, clearly damaged...

"This is all the air cover you'll get. Everything else we have is either down or otherwise engaged." Hall again.

“The return of Mother Brain IS the worst possible news.” Samus shook her head. “The Space Pirates have been steering clear of human space ever since I defeated Mother Brain. Without their supercomputer leader, they’re not much more than a nuisance.”

The Space Pirates, while dangerous and vicious, were not as organized or civilized as most of the species in the universe. Their leadership was clumsy and cowardly. In the days when Mother Brain had ruled over them, they had been a fearsome problem and had endangered almost any civilization they came into contact with. Those days had been nothing but a memory, until now.

“Do me a favor, colonel. If you have any more run-ins with the Space Pirates, make sure you give me a call. If these bastards are bold enough to attack military ships, then I’m going to have to go after them again.”

Didymus listed as Samus spoke, not replying to her till she had asked him to her when the pirates show up.

"You're a morale boost, Miss Aran, I'm afraid if we had to wait for you EVERY time the Space Pirates showed up it would be a disaster. Of course, your help, I imagine, will always be welcome. As for staying in the loop...heh, I'd love to stay in contact, Miss Aran, but I can only disclose so much about the 3rd's wheelings and dealings. If when we meet Space Pirates counts as what I CAN disclose...then certainly."
