[The Bebop] “… So you’re actually taking this one, eh, Spike?” An enormous bald man with a bushy goatee and a metal arm walked into the room and gave a small sigh. Jet Black shook his head slowly as he leaned against the wall, crossing his arms and closing his eyes. “Have you even heard of Samus Aran? She’s supposed to have some kind of crazy alien suit. I’ve heard she’s like an entire marine platoon all wrapped up in one person.” Jet paused for a moment as he watched his green-haired partner and then gave a loud groan. He turned away from Spike and crossed the room. In one quick motion he opened the mini-fridge, grabbed a lukewarm can of beer and took a large, long gulp. It was only afterwards that he finally looked back over to Spike. “… You’re not going to listen so I don’t know why I bother warning you.” Jet sighed. [Haven] Mr. Smoothie “Yeah, yeah. Do whatever you want, Ben. Just don’t come crying to me when we’re not around to save your butt.” Kevin rolled his eyes. [Binthu] Sama hesitated. This situation was bad. He was confident that his friends could take down the Cerberus team, but there were so many of them, and they were so well-armed that Sama doubted they could get through this without taking some losses. “… We’ll holster our weapons and come inside. We won’t be discarding them altogether. If that’s not good enough, then I guess we’ll have to do this the ugly way.” Sama called out. Jacob watched for a moment and then he nodded and lowered his rifle. “Fair enough.” Sama motioned to the others, and then holstered his pistol. [TARDIS] River couldn’t help but smirk at seeing The Doctor back to his usual self. However, that smirk soon faded at his question. “We do have a lead. You won’t like it, but it’s the only one we have. The Shadow Broker.” There was no need to elaborate on why it was an unfavorable lead. The Shadow Broker was a notorious figure who bought and sold the most valuable commodity in the universe – information. “Apparently, the Shadow Broker has connections to the Illusive Man. They work together. If anyone could find him… it’s the Shadow Broker. I don’t need to tell you how difficult it would be to get this information from him, do I?” [Ysmault Station] A floating probe appeared in front of Jack’s ship, directing him to Docking Bay 12. Once he arrived, the door would open and he was greeted as Thevyn had been – the only difference was in who greeted him. Atrocitus stepped forward. “… So, you’re the human that Azula thinks can help us? You don’t look that impressive to me.” |

The Bebop Spike smirked, pulling out his zippo and lighting up before hearing the voice of Jet Black. He lit up his cigarette, puffing out a small stream of smoke as Jet informed him about Samus. He shrugged. "If she's really that dangerous, it sounds like just our kind of job!" He looked over at his old partner and grinned. "'sides, we have the home-advantage. She was last seen on Mars. I'll go visit old man Laughing Bull, he'll tell us where she is. We'll set up a little ambush before the other bounty hunters have even got into the Sol System." He looked back at the monitor. "And hey, you saw her bounty. We could really use the money. The Bebop isn't going to keep itself running, so are you in?" Ein barked somewhere behind them, running up and around Jet. The corgi preferred Jet over Spike or the woman onboard. The Bebop hit hyperspace as Spike leaned back, putting out his cigarette in an ash tray. |

[The Bebop] Jet gave a small ‘hmph’ and simply shook his head. He wasn’t at all surprised that Spike was charging headfirst into danger… the green-haired male did that a lot, and it never stopped annoying the former cop. “Yeah, you’ve got a point. We could use the money. I’m sick of chopped ramen for every meal.” He looked up at Spike, sighing slightly that they were off on another one of ‘those kind of’ jobs. Jet briefly paused to look down at Ein as the corgi ran around his feet, and then turned his eyes back to Spike. “I’m in. But I reserve the right to remind you how bad of an idea this was if it goes south.” |

-Eggman Armada- The large armada floated in an out of the way system, mining it for resources, building up the fleet and the robots who crewed it. On the flagship was the leader of this armada, the infamous Dr. Eggman, wanted for crimes by both the United Terran Federation and Mobius and it's colonies. He grinned, looking down at two of his greatest creations, stroking his mustache softly before he spoke. “You two are my finest combatants... and I have a mission for you,” Eggman said, “I want you to find and capture these individuals for me... But if they prove too difficult or you assess likely they will escape, you can kill them.” An image floated in front of the two figures, showing them Princess Sally, Sonic, Shadow, Silver, Knuckles, Amy, and Cosmo... “Find them... and bring them back... so I can Legionize them.” “Yes, Master,” Metal Sonic said, bowing low, one of the two figures in front of Eggman... -Haven- Mall “It's fine... I like the company...” Aiden said, “A lot of people avoid me...” She paused, then looked down at her food, feeling like she said too much. Mr. Smoothie “I think you should be more worried about me not being around to save you,” Ben smirked, taking a drink of his purchased smoothie now. -Binthu- Hammah nodded, not having his weapon out already, following Sama into the place. He did covertly activate some scanning devices in his suit, very high tech... and slightly experimental though. -T.A.R.D.I.S.- The Doctor grinned, “I think the Shadow Broker underestimates just how convincing I can be. Well then, where is the ol' chap hiding nowadays? Desert planet, that place with all the alien goats, some asteroid belt, that dessert planet...” The Doctor paused, “River, Azmuth, one of you remind me to visit that one again. The best flan and custard there.” -Ysmault Station- Jack stared at Atrocitus as he stepped inside the station, wide eyed and gaping like a fish for a solid moment before he pulled himself together. “I... of course!” Jack said, “Look no further, you won't find a guy who build you stuff any better!” Except Eggman. Or Tony Stark. Or Azmuth. Or plenty of other people I don't want to comb over the sign ups for to list. |

[Binthu] Once inside, the group had to take an elevator down into a vast, underground complex. When the elevator finally stopped they were in an enormous hall. It was a cave tunnel on either side of them, reinforced at key points with metal beams. “You don’t remember me, do you?” Taylor asked as he led them down the hallway. “I was a marine. We ran a few ops together on Mobius back in the day. I was enlisted, don’t think we ever actually spoke.” Sama frowned. Quite a while had passed since the initial war between humans and mobians, but he remembered it like it was yesterday. “No. I don’t remember you, Mr. Taylor… but if you were a marine, I’m curious why you’re working for a group like Cerberus. We already know your group stole very advanced weapons from the Republic.” Jacob stopped in his tracks and turned to the others, shaking his head. “I know that Cerberus has a bad reputation. That’s what happens when you step on the toes of powerful people.” “So you’re saying all of the rumors about Cerberus are lies?” Sama raised an eyebrow. “I seem to recall Philanthropy being branded a terrorist group as well. They said you were a traitor and a criminal. Is that true?” Taylor rebutted. Sama frowned. “Fair enough. Is that why you let us in? To try to convince us that you guys are just misunderstood?” “I let you in because the boss wants to talk to you.” They arrived at the end of the hallway. Jacob opened the door, and inside was a small, round room with a holographic projector in the center. [Ysmault Station] “Let’s hope you’re telling the truth.” Atrocitus growled. “I’m not a forgiving man. You screw up and I will toss you into the Ysmault star.” The enormous Red Lantern gave a throaty growl, and he crossed his arms. “Now, down to business. We have a machine that you need to fix. It’s an advanced computer terminal. One designed to house an AI.” [TARDIS] “Now that’s more like it.” River grinned. She knew in that moment that even with the incredible odds against them, The Doctor would find a way. “The Shadow Broker is on Hagalaz. The planet has a 98 hour day. The intense heat on one side of the planet and extreme cold on the other results in extremely violent storm cells wherever the sun is rising or setting. The electrical storms make it impossible for most ships to enter those areas…” River sighed. “And that’s exactly where you’ll find him. The Shadow Broker’s ship is specifically designed to withstand these storms. He stays in them constantly. It would be impossible for a normal ship to enter the storms.” |

The Bebop Spike grinned again. Jet was predictable, regardless of his Sun Tzu-esque facade. "You're on, Jet." He stood up held out his hand. "And if this goes my way, you buy me lobster miso at that new place in Jupiter's Orbit." A fancy restaurant, no doubt. It was no secret the Bebop crew hadn't had a taste in luxury for the last few weeks. He then paused. "You said she had an alien suit. What kind? If it's power armor, you figure we can shut if off?" Jet was far more into the strategic view of a situation than Spike was. Spike just rushed into things. Still, if she was wearing some suit of armor, there wasn't much the bounty hunters could threaten her with. Of course, there was a chance they'd bump into her without her armor. Spike actually fancied the idea of a challenge. He had fought worse odds before and came out on top, even if they had a bad track record of getting bounty heads alive. Haven - Mall Shipper tilted his head slightly. People avoided her? Red alert, red alert. Something must have been off about her. He was, however, curious why. She seemed like a regular human, white-hair and strange colored eyes aside. "Why's that?" Eggman's Armada The other figure stood far taller than both Metal Sonic and Eggman, though he was hunched over slightly. He wore a long white cape that covered most of his ivory figure. His face resembled that of a skull, and a pair of very alien eyes loomed out. As Eggman addressed the two, he made sure to take note of all of the targets presented. Yes.. The supposed heroes of Mobius. Powerful fighters in their own right. But the cyborg was not worried. General Grievous knelt before Eggman. "Your will be done, Doctor."

[The Bebop] Jet could tell just from looking at the grin on Spike’s face that he was actually happy about the challenge. That didn’t surprise Jet in the slightest. He chuckled softly and shook his head. “I don’t know the details, Spike, but I doubt it will be that easy. The military routinely hires her for major operations. Someone like that won’t go down easy. And don’t forget, she’s a bounty hunter. How long do you think it will take her to hear about a bounty on her?” He shook his head. “This is going to be a dangerous one.” |

Ysmault Station Blakefire who has been here But the fact still remained that she wasn't very impressed...Especially with the newest oaf to come aboard. Spicer....She had head that name before....Some weird genius who despite his ability to create a relatively impressive robot army, still managed to be taken down on a fairly regular basis. Blackfire groaned, running a hand through her long hair. Haven Mr. Smoothie "Well I can never say no to a free smoothie" Jade said with a laugh, taking Ben's arm as they headed to the counter. “Well, next time bring us along with you.” "Kevin's right? You shouldn't get to have all the fun on your own. I'm sure I could borrow a few Talismans from my uncle and help kick butt" "Fighting aside, they're right" Gwen agreed. "What if something went wrong? Heck, we really don't even know what you were doing out there" Hawkins' House Melanie relaxed a bit as Galv reassured her, the girl looking down at Elizabeth and giving a sigh. She couldn't see herself right now, but she imagined they looked like a pretty cute little family right now all curled up together. Streets Speaking of families....Apparently Erin wanted to make theirs bigger. “Have you... ever thought... of having another one?” Jason paused, giving a small gulp. In truth he had thought about it....But he could never admit that to ANYONE lest Erin get overly excited, roofie his coffee and have her way with him or something. He was well aware of how much his fiance wanted a son. Jason decided to play it cool, trying to brush off the subject. "I-I dunno, I mean I kinda like the idea of 'Lanna being an only child. That way we get to spoil her more" He doubted that answer would work with the woman....He tried to think of another way out of this....What would Rica do? Jason inwardly shuddered. Nevermind, bad example. What about Kanna? What would she do? |

The Bebop Spike shrugged. "Hey, you could help me look." He waggled his finger. "She's normally contracted by the government? Don't you have a contact or two in Terra's government, anyway?" Spike shrugged a bit, again. He wasn't sure. But that was okay with the cowboy. He looked out the window at the passing stars as the Bebop surfed the cosmos at hyperspace. "Depends on how fast Jabba's word is put out. He likes to hire specific people, for the most part. Very selective." He turns to Jet, smiling. "I suppose someone like her is dangerous. Good. I like a girl that can kick my ass." |

[The Bebop] “I’ve got an old cop buddy who works for the military now, yeah.” Jet confirmed with a nod of his head. “I can call, see what info I can get on Samus.” Jet leaned back and nodded thoughtfully at Spike’s assessment of Jabba. He had heard all the stories about the Hutts of Tatooine, and he knew how dangerous they could be. “Spike, don’t underestimate her. From what I hear, she’s more dangerous than our usual lot.” [Ysmault Station] “Ah, and you…” Azula turned her attention towards Blackfire. She had a special assignment in mind for this girl. Azula intended to use her as part of an important plan. “… You I have a very special offer for. I know your type. You want power. I can make that happen.” Azula said with a grin, crossing her arms. “For a price, of course.” |

-Haven- Mall “Errr... because I look different... a lot different...” Aiden said, looking down at her food, “My hair, my skin, my eyes... It's... off putting, to a lot of people...” She didn't know why she was telling this stranger this... but he was talking to her, and it was nice to have some company and human contact... Mr. Smoothie “Alright, alright, next time I'll bring you guys along,” Ben said, “It was kind of in a hurry. The Doctor and Azmuth showed up and said they needed me to come with them. Didn't really have time to call anyone.” He paused. “... though it is a time machine, I guess I did...” Hawkins' House “Well don't you all look adorable.” Lily walked in now, smirking at the three, “You look really tired Galv, you used a lot of energy back on Pandora...” “Just need to rest up,” Galv said, “I'll be fine by tomorrow.” Streets “I don't mean, like... a lot of kids, like... your mom...” Erin said, “Just, like, one more... maybe two. Solanna could have a little sister... or brother... You know.” She smiled up at Jason, batting her big green eyes at him. -Ysmault Station- Jack gulped again, nodding towards Atrocitus as he followed him, pausing when he saw Blackfire. He moved by the alien girl, then grinned. “Hey there. Name's Jack Spicer. Evil genius extraordinaire. Heard of me?” Jack asked. Unfortunately she has. -Binthu- Hammah glanced towards Sama again as they walked into the room with the holo projector. “I see... We appreciate the offer, but an actual interview in person might be nice, if we can set something up,” Hammah said. -Eggman Armada- “Good... You two will have use of any resources of mine that you think you will need. Ships, pawns, it is your's to use,” Eggman said, “You can work together or split your forces.” |

Haven Mr. Smoothie “Alright, alright, next time I'll bring you guys along,” "Oh well don't sound like we're some sort of burden or something" Gwen stated, wrinkling her nose at her cousin. "You wouldn't have to babysit us or anything" Jade laughed "If anything Ben's the one who needs someone to watch him, lest a planet get blown up or something" Gwen paused, having the urge to ask."......You didn't blow up any planets did you?" Hawkins' House Melanie's eyes opened and the girl frowned deeply when Lily entered the room, looking down at the two. She still couldn't stand Galv's twin and it was VERY obvious. "Go away" she said simply. "You'll wake Elizabeth" Streets Jason was well aware of what Erin was doing....Trying to butter him up so she could have another baby. The sad part was that it was working a bit....He loved Erin, and thus wanted to give her everything she wanted--even if that meant another baby. But Jason was FULLY aware that they were barely qualified to take care of the child they had, he was only 19 for pete's sake! The responsible young man inside was telling him that they needed to wait, get jobs and actually be mature before going through this again...Now the Rica in him was telling him to toss all that out the window and go play closet tango with your soon to be wife. "Not saying we will....But if we were to try for another kid, do you think we'd be able to handle everything. I mean Solanna is enough work on her own" He really shoudn't be entertaining this thought....Ugh...He hated to admit it but he needed to talk to his dad. Ysmault Station “Hey there. Name's Jack Spicer. Evil genius extraordinaire. Heard of me?” Blackfire raised a brow, still very unimpressed. "Unfortunately I have..." she mumbled. "I would have thought this Azula woman would have went for more....Powerful...Men. Eh, I guess every army needs a few idiots to throw on the front lines." Binthu Like the others Crystal lowered her weapon, but didn't drop it completely, keeping her eyes trained to Jacob. Despite her guard being up she followed the other into the room with the Hologram. "Woah....Cool" Collete said quietly, taking a step forward to touch it but being stopped by a hand on her shoulder belonging to Crystal. The girl gave a frown and kept back. |

[Haven: Mr. Smoothie] Kevin just rolled his eyes. Sometimes Ben was as dense as Diamondhead. He sighed, leaning against the smoothie stand and sipping his drink for a moment. “So… what now? You have some downtime, or is there some other big crazy thing going on?” [Ysmault Station] “Spicer is a pathetic worm indeed… but he’s got certain skills that can be useful.” Azula said, turning her head and looking over to Blackfire. “You however, can be useful in many other ways. I assume you want money and power, am I right?” Azula asked. “I can make that happen.” [Binthu] Jacob laughed a bit and shook his head at Hammah. “That’s not going to happen. I don’t even meet the boss in person, and I’ve been working for him for two years. He’s a very cautious man.” The holographic projector kicked on. A figure appeared, translucent and blue. The Illusive Man “You know, normally when a bunch of armed people show up at my private property uninvited, I have a policy of shooting them… but in your case, I’m making an exception.” Sama frowned. “… You’re the head of Cerberus.” “Yes. I am. Your government calls me a traitor and a terrorist. Do you know why, Mr. Kramer?” “Because you steal from the military, operate your own illegal militia and last I heard you were advocating some pretty extreme policies.” Sama crossed his arms. “What I advocate is the human race protecting itself.” The Illusive Man replied. “Ever since the war with the Mobians, mankind has been racing off at breakneck speed to explore as much of the universe as possible. In the few years since that first war, we’ve fought the Metarex, the Zerg, the Red Lanterns… mankind has enemies. Powerful enemies… and we are spreading ourselves too thin to deal with them.” Sama just sighed. He had heard all of these arguments before, but he just shook his head. “Why did you invite us in?” “Because I want to offer you a job.” The Illusive Man replied. “Let me show you something.” The holographic image changed. It wasn’t the Illusive Man anymore. It was now displaying video footage of a group of aliens attacking a human colony. The attack was fierce, and most of the humans were dragged off by the creatures. “What the hell are those?” Sama asked. “They’re called The Collectors. We don’t know where they’ve come from, or what they want. So far, they’ve attacked three human colonies on the furthest outskirts of UTR space. That’s more than fifty thousand people who were kidnapped. My goal is to stop these creatures. I’m trying to put together a team to stop them. Are you interested?” The Illusive Man asked. Sama looked around at the others, frowning. He didn’t know what to think. |

T.R.S. Crusader Didymus was glad Asuka seemed to be kind of happy, and he nodded to Omega. "Thank you, Omega. It was...strange...out there." he said. If they were to follow him to his quarters, he'd finally sit down with a heavy sigh. "Miss Caraway is still on board, and her theories proved to be right this time...this means that a defense contractor is appearantly out to get us. Wonderful. Enemies and rivals from pretty much every. Single. Species. In the galaxy, and now this." He got out a drink from his minifridge. "Want something?" he asked Asuka. He took a swig. "We'll probably need to follow up on these events, and...well...just...with everything..." he sighed again. "I know I haven't delivered one of my gloomy rants in a long time, but I'm afraid I remain as...heh, OPTIMISTIC...about the future as ever." he said. |

The Bebop Spike waves him off. "You told me once in order to eat well, we need to catch the big fish, right? Well that's what we're going to do." He shoves his hands in his pockets. "I'm going to go prep the Swordfish. Tell me when we're close enough to the red planet." Spike always began his searches on his own. He decided he'd go to an old friend first. One who supposedly could foretell where someone would be. Laughing Bull. He entered the hangar, looking at his slightly beat-up ship. It had treated him well over the years, and Spike did care about it despite its flaws and dents. Eggman Armada The gears in the former warlord's head were already spinning - somewhat literally. He looked to Eggman. "We will accomplish more if we break apart." He stood up now, one again slightly hunched. "These are a lot of targets. If they must be dealt with quickly, then we will cover more ground apart." He looked to Eggman. "I will head for Mobius, now, as most of our targets may be hiding there." He raised a metallic fist to his chest, lowering his head. "I would like to adjourn." The General was anxious to carry out the Doctor's plans. Haven - The Mall Shipper shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "You're not that different. I mean, look at all the weird creatures in the world." He smiled nervously. He was bad at this type of thing, really. "That's the thing about Haven. There's a lot of strange humans here. We aren't like others, we're not like the ones in the Sol system." He has already eaten most of his food. Yes, he was hungry. He eyed Aiden's food suspiciously, wondering again why it was burned and if she was really eating it like that. "I mean..I guess to say...well..uhm..I don't think you look that different." |
