-Acorn Palace- “You think I am special...? You think I am the only one...?” Metal Sonic asked, then gave a low robotic laugh, “Robotnik was nothing compared to Eggman. His Legions will take Mobius and all of your precious colonies.” Metal Sonic stepped back, and a high pitched whine was heard from him. “Goodbye, Princess Acorn!” Metal Sonic suddenly glowed and exploded, his energy being sent upwards, blasting through the roof, leaving everyone in the roof unharmed as a smoking crater was left, nothing of the robot remaining. Metal Sonic (this iteration at least) Did Not Reach for the Stars -T.R.S. Crusader- Omega gave his robotic frown at Asuka, wondering if perhaps this was some kind of trick question. “You are my Comrade, Asuka,” Omega said simply, “Who else would you be?” Omega mimed scratching his head, a human gesture he had picked up, “But if this Peterson person is important to you, maybe you should contact him again?” -Haven- Jason and Erin's Apartment Erin definitely had not gotten over being jealous, but she didn't see Korina as someone to be jealous about... thankfully. “Don't mention it,” Erin said with a smile. She paused, then reached forward and ruffled Korina's hair. One thing Walter hadn't done was much physical contact... No hugs. Erin frowned for a moment, then handed Solanna to Jason, then turned back to Korina and pulled the girl into a hug, holding the girl tightly. “I know what it's like... feeling like you're all alone...” Erin said softly to the girl, “But you're not... we're here for you, okay? Consider me like your new big sister, alright?” Hawkins' House “I'll get dinner started,” Jacob said, heading into the kitchen as they got back. Lily frowned at Melanie. “Lily, watch your sister for me,” Jacob spoke up. Lily nodded, taking Elizabeth from Galv now as he stood up, looking towards Melanie. “Of course Melanie,” Galv said to the girl, following her upstairs. He was worried she was mad at him... Mr. Smoothie “So what's the last known location of that human Green Lantern?” Ben asked, “Might be the best place to start. Maybe we can convince him to work with us... Us humans sometimes have trouble following the rules, after all.” -The Celsius- Hammah nodded, punching in the correct coordinates as the ship descended into the atmosphere, heading for the spot Sama had indicated... |

Haven Jason and Erin's Apartment Jason blinked as Erin handed him Solanna, before moving to-- hopefully not kill Korina. Luckily it looked as if she was over her jealousy and instead hugged the girl tightly. Jason gave a small smile, bouncing their baby girl in his arm. "You girls get ready, and we'll head out to the beach in a few minutes" he said, giving the two some privacy. He knew that Erin and Korina had very similar childhoods so it would probably be a good thing for them to be able to talk a bit... Hawkins' House Melanie led Galv upstairs to his room, closing the door behind them as they went in and looking to Galv. For a moment she stood there blankly, realizing that this was the first time since she moved in that they had been alone...For a moment she debated partaking in a nice little makeout session with her boyfriend...But she doubted Jacob would approve. Instead she stood in front of him and gave a small sigh. "I know i've said this a million times in the last few days but...I'm sorry for how i've been acting. It's been rude and childish and stupid and I should be grateful for any time I get with you. I got to talk to your grandfather and he mentioned that I should talk to you instead of bottling it all up" So she told Galv everything that she had told his grandfather on their walk. By the end of it she looked rather embarrassed. Mr. Smoothie "Us humans sometimes have trouble following the rules, after all.” Jade couldn't help but to give a small laugh. "Sounds about right...Maybe you should leave the convincing to Gwen and Kevin.....Or maybe just Gwen. She seems to be the most logical out of us. And the best to convince" |

[TRS Crusader] Asuka looked up at Omega and smiled a little. It was a simplistic view – but one that Asuka wished she could subscribe to. She leaned back, and then thought about what he suggested. “… Maybe I should. I don’t even know where Peterson is posted now… I’m sure I can get the information.” [Haven] [Jason & Erin’s Apartment] Korina stood awkwardly as Erin hugged her. She really wasn’t used to physical contact in any way, so she had no clue how to behave. She just stood there and then slowly hugged Erin back, not sure what she was actually doing. “… A big sister? O-Okay.” Korina said quietly. She doesn’t know what to do in situations with people. [Mr. Smoothie] “Hmm…” Rex pulled out a small PDA, which merged with the nanites in his hands. He looked at the screen, which was now searching through classified records – hacked by the miniature machines running through Rex’s body. “Found him! His name is John Stewart. According to internal UTR Reports, he’s at one of their bases at a hearing.” [Horizon Colony] The Horizon Colony, oddly abandoned, looked absolutely pristine. There were no signs of damage, no dead bodies, and nothing out of place – aside from there being no people anywhere on what was supposed to be a populated human colony. “Hammah, better get that land vehicle ready.” Sama said, and then he turned to the others. “Crystal? You coming along?” |

-The Nemesis- (Because I should have done something here last time. XDX ) “All Hail Megatron,” one of the many bots said, not as enthusiastic as the others, Starscream scowling a bit at being here. He thought this plan was... well, stupid. Attacking U.T.R. space? Megatron was going entirely too far... Instead, Starscream stepped forward as Megatron returned to the bridge, “Most glorious attack, Lord Megatron. I'm sure these humans will know not to mess with us now.” “Or bring their entire fleet down on our heads...” Starscream thought to himself. -Haven- Jason and Erin's Apartment Erin smiled happy, then paused, thinking things over. “You need a swimsuit, don't you?” Erin said to Korina, “We'll go and pick one up for you!” Erin turned to Jason, “You can get everything else, right honey? I'll make sure Korina is ready, and I'll meet you with Solanna at the pool, okay dear?” Hawkins' House Galv was quiet, listening to Melanie, then moved forward, hugging her tightly. After a moment he stepped back, though kept his hands on her shoulders. “Melanie... I love you regardless of what you do,” Galv said to the girl, “I... can't imagine my life without you in it...” He gave Melanie a smile, then looked to the side for a moment, glancing towards the door, where down the stairs sat his sisters. “I would like to get to know my twin better... And I want to make sure Elizabeth stays in my life. But I will always be here for you, Melanie. If you ever feel like I'm drifting from you... I want you to tell me, okay? We can talk, like we are now,” Galv said, his attention back to Melanie, “And if you want Kanna in your life... that's fine. I know she and I will never really get along, but if that's what you want, it'd be selfish of me to demand my family in our life and not your's.” Mr. Smoothie “Huh... Then let's go!” Ben said, “We'll take my ship! How far is this place?” It seemed Ben wasn't worried about trying to get into a U.T.R. base. -Horizon Colony- Hammah nodded, getting the vehicle ready, then paused. “...I think I should stay on board, just in case,” Hammah said. “I can coordinate from here.” “Well I'm heading down there,” Jimi said, his power armor warming up, “Let's go.” |

-Haven- Hawkins' House Melanie gave a sigh of relief, plopping down on the bed next to Galv. She offered him a smile, leaning in and kissing him quickly. "How are you so patient with me? Actually better question would be how are you so patient with my mom...You are literally the best person ever to deal with all of this. Melanie leaned against Galv, touching her forehead against the boy's. She sat there for a moment before looking towards the door. "I know you want to get to know your family better, but could I possibly borrow you for a few more minutes? I think this is the first time since i've moved in that we've been able to be in the same room with the door shut." Yeah. She's Kanna's daughter still. But not THAT much. Jason's Apartment Jason gave a small nod, looking over his shoulder and debating asking if this was all some sort of ruse to kill Korina in a back alley somewhere. But he decided to trust the woman and let them have some bonding time... "Be careful" he told the two, heading out with Elizabeth for the time being. -Horizon Colony- Crystal nodded at Sama. "I'm coming" she told him with a grin. Meanwhile Colette was conflicted, obviously she wanted to be where the action was...But Hammah was staying behind....Jimi was going though. "Do you need help with it" Colette asked, stepping next to the blonde boy. "Coordinating I mean" |

[The Nemesis] Megatron simply shrugged at Starscream’s words. “The humans are irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. All that matters is finding the AllSpark. Once we do that, there is not a force in the Galaxy that can stand against us.” He approached one of the computer consoles and attached his hand to it, quickly browsing the files in their system. Then his amusement at having destroyed the human Frigate turned to anger. “Still no sign of the AllSpark? Starscream, I want it found now!” Megatron growled, turning back to his number-two. “Every moment the AllSpark is not in my possession is a moment that Prime could find it.” The name was spoken with such contention that Megatron’s eyes flashed a darker shade of red. “I will not allow the Autobots to find it before us.” [Haven] [Jason & Erin’s Apartment] As always whenever she was confused, Korina tilted her head slightly. “There are suits for swimming?” She grew up in a freezer. Swimwear and freezers don’t mix. “Um… yeah I guess I’ll need one then.” Korina said quietly. [Mr. Smoothie] Rex opened his mouth to point out the obvious – but he just as quickly shook his head. If there was one thing he knew about Tennyson, it was that he never cared about the odds. “The base is in a remote part of Mars. A desert controlled exclusively by the government. They’ve got a wide parameter where no one’s allowed in without the proper ID… so this could be a challenge.” Rex explained. “Eh, maybe we could try talking to somebody before we break into a military base.” Kevin suggested with a sigh. You know you’re group is in trouble when Kevin Levin is the voice of reason. [Horizon Colony] Sama turned to Hammah and gave a little nod. “If that’s what you think is best. If things do get hairy, we’ll need a quick evac, so it may be a good idea anyway.” Sama was really helping things wouldn’t get hairy, but knew it was likely. Colonies don’t just vanish into thin air! “Alright everyone, we’re off!” Once everyone who was coming (which included a half-asleep Kimi who wanted to be in on the action but still wanted to nap), the pod bay doors opened and the vehicle headed out. They were soon approaching the main city and Sama frowned as he looked through the viewfinder. He had hoped that actually being here would show clues he hadn’t seen from the orbital view, but everything was still eerily pristine. “This doesn’t make sense… what happened to everyone?” |

T.R.S. Crusader Didymus chuckled. "Being seen working alongside YOU against an evil HUMAN CORPORATION that dared to supply weapons for the military may well do a bit to boost my popular image..." he said. "...but it won't last." "...so I suppose it ISN'T good news as far as I'm concerned-again we just lost another major contractor that's going to now go into hiding and become a terrorist cell, if not an outright insurrection. As if cutbacks weren't hurting us enough." "You really should get some rest, though, Miss Caraway." He still reflected on whether he should ask why she had, well, kissed him. But he thought he already knew there was a simple answer (that she thought she was going to die and he was trying to comfort her). Acorn Palace, Mobius Sally had stepped back, and blinked in the aftermath of what had happened there. "Let's get this cleaned up. And see to him." she said, pointing at the guard Metal Sonic had grabbed. |

-Haven- Hawkins' House Galv blushed as Melanie asked for some alone time for them. “S-Sure...” Galv nodded, moving forward and kissing Melanie now. “You know, they're probably making out or something up there,” Lily said to Jacob idly, holding Elizabeth who was sparking happily in her older sister's arms. “They can have five minutes alone,” Jacob said, “They'll be fine.” Jason's Apartment Erin smiled, taking Korina's arm and leading her outside, “Come on, there's a clothing store right down the street!” Mr. Smoothie “I suppose...” Ben said, rubbing his chin, “Who can we talk to about it then?” -T.R.S. Crusader- “I'm sure you could get that information. Would you like to go and do so now?” Omega inquired, “We can return to the firing range at another time.” -Horizon Colony- The Celsius “I... yes, I could use help,” Hammah said to Colette. He was lying, but he didn't want to put Colette in any unnecessary danger. He tap a couple buttons, getting the vehicle ready, bringing it down near Sama and the others. Surface On the surface, Jimi frowned himself, checking some readings from his suit. “That's a very good question. If we find out, I hope some overwhelming firepower is good enough to stop it,” Jimi answered. -The Nemesis- “Right away sir! Soundwave, where is the AllSpark?” Starscream demanded turning towards the Decepticons' Communications Officer. Soundwave simply turned to his computer screen, typing at it himself, then turned back to Starscream. A space map showed on his face plate now, giving a set of coordinates. “Lord Megatron... It seems that we have picked up the trail of the Autobot ship... That... Prime, and his Matrix may be unto the location of the AllSpark,” Starscream reported, “But they are on the edge of these human's space, and heading for it...” -The Ark- Optimus Prime stood at the bridge of the Autobot ship, a concerned look on his face. The galaxy was a large place, and there were a number of strange species in the galaxy. Cybertron had been neutral in the Yeerk-Andalite War, being incompatible with Yeerks, and engaged in their own ongoing civil war. Once an empire, they were now back to only a single planet, and hadn't made much contact with other species. But soon they would be approaching a large expansion of a biological species. What little information they had gathered was that they were called 'humans' and had their own empire that rivaled the Yeerks and Andalites. Apparently their new presence on the galactic scene was causing a stir. And they were close to an outer edge of their territory... “Autobots, prepare to drop out of lightspeed. We will approach carefully, and state our intentions to the humans,” Optimus said. |

Haven Hawkins' House Melanie grinned at Galv's agreement, leaning in and letting the boy kiss her for the next few moments uninterrupted. She knew that Jacob wouldn't let them stay alone forever (neither would Lily actually) so after a few more moments she decided to take over, now pushing the boy down and proceeding to make out with him. This was nice. After a few more moments the girl pulled herself back up, staring down at the boy she had pushed down (as if she was strong enough to keep him down on his own accord, he could probably get up any time he liked) and pushing some of her long raven hair over her shoulder. She was 15, and no longer dumb (and Galv was 16 and even LESS dumb). She knew what she could get away with in this situation, but she also knew that she was running out of places to go if Jacob kicked her out. That and something about acting like her mom gave her a icky dirty feeling that she couldn't shake off. Yeah. The idea of becoming her mom was enough to keep the girl from getting handsy with her boyfriend. Unintended victory for Kanna? So she sat back, a giant blush on her face, and looked towards the door. "Heh, sorry. I'll stop now" Park Kanna sat in the grass on a outstretched blanket, her three youngest children crawling about and pulling at the grass. The woman decided they needed some air, after having been cooped up in their tiny hotel room for so long....She knew it was horrible but she had not yet found permanent living arrangements for herself and her babies, choosing to just stay in a hotel for the time....Something felt so wrong about getting a place without Melanie and Jason. Kanna gave a small groan, knowing the two had grown up, especially Jason. He was an adult with his own child and almost-wife (though it bothered her to admit that). And Melanie.....Well Melanie was still a child in her eyes....But she was now staying with Galv and his grandfather...Ugh. Was she really that bad a mother that her daughter chose to live away from her and with that horrid boy? Probably. Kanna couldn't even say that she was that surprised, she really had been in a horrid mood lately and found it easiest to take it out on her eldest daughter (since the brunt of all her usual anger, Jason, wasn't around). Melanie obviously couldn't handle it like Jason and she escaped away to her little boyfriend's place. Kanna was well aware she couldn't blame her 15 year old daughter for not being able to take verbal abuse, so for now she just let the girl go and tried to relax and calm down for the sakes of her three youngest. They were actually pretty good at keeping her mellow, and it was nice to know that if for some reason they were stressing her out she could at least drop them off with their fathers (something that she couldn't say about Melanie or Jason as babies). The Ark For once, Bumblebee was being quiet. Not by choice of course, the yellow Autobot was dying to make some kind of conversation to break the tension in the ship. But it seemed as if everyone else was keeping pretty much to themselves, so for once he took a cue from his surroundings and kept his mouth shut. This was Bumblebee's first major mission and he had heard all sorts of things about the mysterious planet known as Earth....Apparently the organisms known as humans were small and fleshy, which in his processor sounded kinda gross. Like a tiny squish-able blob....But they couldn't squish them. No, Optimus made that clear. We would talk to them...Not attack, lest some insane war break out. Not that they would ever lose to a bunch of fleshy squishy blobs. "Sure thing boss bot!" Bumblebee finally said, breaking the quiet. Horizon Colony Colette gave a smile and nodded, deciding to stay by Hammah's side and help out here. She looked to Jimi, Sama and the others. "Please be careful out there guys" Crystal gave a nod "Don't worry, Kimi and I won't let any of the boys get into trouble" she said, heading to the surface with the others... The Surface “This doesn’t make sense… what happened to everyone?” "It's weird, even if there was someone...Or something killing everyone wouldn't there be...Well...More destruction?" Crystal asked. Everything from as far as she could see looked in it's place. No signs of a struggle really anywhere around. "Maybe they all fled somewhere?" |

[Horizon Colony] “I don’t know. This was a pretty big colony… about two thousand people lived here.” Sama said with a frowned as he looked down at the tablet in his hands. He was pulling up the public UTR information on the Horizon Colony. “If they evacuated, wouldn’t there be more signs of it? Two thousand people running for their lives you’d think they’d make a mess. And I doubt any disaster that would make everyone flee would leave the colony in such good shape.” He approached a building – carefully – and opened the door. As he peered inside and turned on the light, he found it was a small housing complex. The dining room table was set with a meal, the living room looked lived in, and by all accounts it seemed like someone was living in the house. Yet no one was there. “You know… now that I think about it… I remember hearing a rumor a few years ago that something similar happened to an Andalite Colony, on the edges of their territory. They were never able to figure out the cause, or find the missing Andalites. They blamed the Yeerks for it, although they blame the Yeerks for everything.” Sama turned back to the others. “Come on. Let’s find the security hub. Maybe we can get the surveillance tapes.” [The Ark] Aboard the Ark, a smaller blue Autobot called Arcee walked along the bridge. She was worried. Making first contact with the humans was a dangerous idea. There was no way to tell how the humans would react to them – and this ‘UTR’ was said to be enormous and powerful. From the reports they had gathered, the humans had fought all manner of other species, and faced all manner of threats, and still maintained itself as an equal to the Andalites and Yeerks. She approached Optimus and sighed. “Are you sure about this? I’m not one to second guess you, but this could be a big mistake.” [TRS Crusader] “Yeah… why don’t we do that, Omega? Let’s go find Didymus.” Asuka said, nodding her head. […] “Relax.” Rinoa said, shaking her head. “We can get past this. Hyperion was a big company, but there are other companies that can take their place. Besides… Hyperion might be huge, but most of their staff are Jack’s robots. He doesn’t actually have the support to undermine the UTR.” [The Nemesis] Megatron turned around and glared at the mention of the Autobots and… Prime. His eyes shone with a rather vicious light. “Then what are you waiting for you fools? Get on Prime’s trail! I will not allow him to him to AllSpark. We will take our prize and destroy Optimus Prime in one fell swoop.” Megatron boldly declared. [Haven] [Jason’s Apartment] Korrina nodded and silently followed Erin. [Park] “You look like you have something on your mind.” Someone appeared from behind a tree, slipping out and approaching Kanna. Normally an oddly-pale man in a trench-coat at a public park approaching a woman and children silently from behind trees would have been creepy – but it’s just Rica. He walked over and leaned against the tree, peering down at Kanna from behind his sunglasses with a grin on his face. His attention turned briefly to the children who played on the grass and he chuckled a bit. “At least they’re having fun.” Rica grinned. [Mr. Smoothie] “I have no idea.” Kevin admitted. “But pissing off the UTR seems like a bad idea.” |

[Horizon Colony] Crystal listened to Sama, biting her lip and following him as he walked around. Surely they all couldn't have just vanished into thin air....That was something out of a sci-fi novel, not real life. Of course stranger things had happened... "I really don't like this" she mumbled, yet still followed. Sama's idea of checking security tapes was probably the best solution right now... Haven Park “You look like you have something on your mind.” "I always have something on my mind it seems" Kanna greeted Rica, not off put by the man's slightly creepy entrance at all. By now she was used to the man and all of his strangeness so instead she just gave him a nod and tossed him a full flask that she had been keeping in her purse. The children stopped their exploration for a moment, Laila's eyes lighting up at the sight of her father. While Rica had never got to experience the joys of baby Jason seeing his father as the greatest person in the world (quite the opposite actually) he was now able to enjoy Laila's never ending adoration for her papa. |

T.R.S. Crusader Didymus sighed. "Perhaps, and it's not as though Hyperion is too large threat in and of itself, but it all adds up. This is one of the last things we need, with everything else that's going on...we've lost a supplier and gained a foe in one fell swoop. We came out behind either way in a time where we can ill afford setbacks..." He looked over to her. "But at least we made it out. It's good you've still got some life and energy after what could have happened." |

-Haven- Hawkins' House Galv wasn't sure if he should be relieved or sad that Melanie had stopped, also knowing what they could get away with... and what they shouldn't. “I... yah... probably a good idea...” Galv said, blushing back at her, then moved towards her and gave her a kiss, “Do you wanna head back down now? Or just sit here for a little bit?” Streets Erin smiled as she and Korina hit the streets, Erin taking a moment to orient herself before she turned back to Korina. “There's a clothing store down at the mall, it's not too far from here, and then we can swing by the pool... And we should probably pick up some sunscreen...” Erin said, looking at how pale Korina was. “And maybe some floaties too...” Mr. Smoothie “Hmmm...” Ben leaned back, thinking, “Maybe we could just tell the truth? Say what we're doing and see what happens? Worst they say is 'no' and we're back to where we are now, right?” Haven School Ethan sat at his desk. School hadn't started back up yet for Haven, but Ethan would be teaching there, using his considerable intelligence to teach math and science to those young folks with powers. “You really should go home, Samuel,” Ethan said, going through some papers, not looking up as a figure leaned against the doorway. “So should you, Ethan,” Samuel said, frowning, “What are you doing here?” “Making sure I have everything ready,” Ethan said, “I'm going to be teaching here, along with putting in time and aid to the scientists on Haven studying the mutations that were done to everyone.” “Sounds like you'll be busy,” Samuel said, stepping forward and sitting on top of one of the student's desks, “What about Maize, Kanna, and your twins?” “Maize says she wants to join the U.T.R. military. Be good for her, it'll pay for her college. She'd make a good Marine. Strong, smart, knows what she's doing,” Ethan said, “And I'll still have time for the twins.” “And sleep?” Samuel asked. “I haven't slept in years, Sammy,” Ethan said, half jokingly, “Why break the cycle now?” “And Kanna...?” Samuel asked now, noticing that Ethan had left her out. “...Kanna is Kanna,” Ethan said, “She can figure herself out. I have other responsibilities and duties I have to attend to.” He sighed a moment, putting down his papers then leaned forward, “Sam, you know what I believe my greatest strength is?” Samuel paused, frowning. Ethan only called him 'Sam' when he was being very serious, so he stopped to consider the question. “Well... I guess the obvious answer would be your strength. How much raw tonnage were you measured at being able to lift?” Samuel asked. Ethan shook his head, “No, not my strength. This.” He tapped his head, smirking a little, “My mind. I was always at the top of my class. I joined NERV when they were still 'legitimate.' When I, and others, believed they were doing things like working to prevent things like genetic diseases. Sure, being able to bend titanium is impressive, but I can do a lot more good with my intelligence. So that's what I plan on doing, using my mind to help others.” Samuel nodded, “Sounds like a noble purpose... Gonna use that speech on your classes?” “That's the plan,” Ethan said, “Some of them are nervous, some of them are scared. Some will think their powers entitle them to things, that they're better... But it's what you do with what you have that matters.” He then stared levelly at Samuel, “Including spending time with those that you love.” Samuel frowned now, “I... suppose... It's just...” “You're worried about outliving them... seeing them die,” Ethan said bluntly, “If you really felt that way, you'd get on a ship, find some uninhabitable planet and sit there until the end times, or plunge into a gas giant or something, if you were really worried about making connections. Don't let this time slip away... Go, be with your kids... Be with your father, be with your family, or you'll regret not spending time with them more then you will not.” Samuel sighed, then nodded his head, “I... you're right... Okay then, I'll head there. But Ethan... Take time for yourself, okay? Don't go just saving the galaxy, have a little fun.” Ethan smirked, “I have plenty of fun. Science, after all.” -Horizon Colony- “It's like they just vanished... No bodies, nothing. Like one minute they were here... then gone...” Jimi said, frowning, “Maybe some kind of teleportation device?” -The Ark- “I am sure, Arcee,” Optimus said, though in truth he was not, but he had to act confident in front of the others. He was the Prime, the last of them, and he had to lead them. The Ark dropped out of hyperspace now, at the edge of the human colony. Optimus stood straight, and broadcast a signal. “Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong,” Optimus opened with, an old Cybertron greeting that basically meant 'we come in peace,' used back in the days when Cybertron was more prevalent on the galactic stage. “Greetings, humans of the United Terran Republic. I am Optimus Prime of the Autobots, hailing from the planet of Cybertron,” Optimus then continued, “We seek safe passage through your system, as we search for an ancient artifact of our culture we believe has found itself in your space. We do not seek war nor any kind of violence with you. Thank you.” Optimus turned off the transmission, hoping that humanity would respond positively. -T.R.S. Crusader- Omega nodded, following Asuka as they went to find Didymus. |

[Horizon Colony] “Maybe.” Sama nodded to Jimi’s speculation. At the moment, evidence was nonexistent. It was easily the most baffling thing Sama had experienced since he first left Earth. They soon came to a small, gray building with the word SECURITY written across the door. Sama approached and pressed a few buttons. Cerberus had supplied them with the security codes for the entire colony – and while Sama was skeptical that they came by those codes legally, he wasn’t going to look a gift horse in the mouth. The door swung open and inside was the same eerie cleanness as the rest of the colony. He approached the computer and typed in a few codes, accessing the surveillance tapes. The tape showed an aerial view of the colony – recorded from some type of flying drone. It seemed like an ordinary day, people walking down the street, children playing the park, traffic on the roads. Suddenly, a swarm of unusual insects appeared in the sky and swarmed across the streets. As the insects swarmed people, they stung them and immediately froze everyone in place. The moment one of the mysterious bugs stung someone, they were suddenly petrified in place. It seemed that most people were frozen in place before they could even react to the swarm. The video came to an abrupt end as something blasted the drone, destroying it and ending the feed. “What the hell?” Sama wondered aloud. “Bugs? That can… paralyze people? Just what in the world is going on here?” [Haven] [Park] Rica laughed a bit at Kanna’s greeting, before he turned his attention to the children. Seeing the way Laila looked up at him brought a rare non-creepy smile to the man’s face, and he quickly bent down and scooped her up in his arms. While Rica had raised one foster child, and knew he already had a grown son, he had never felt much like a parent. He had never been there for Jason, and his relationship with Felix was less of a parent and more like an employer. Laila was different. She was his daughter – so young and so innocent. He wanted to actually be a father for the first time in his life. Even if he had less of an idea on how to be a dad than Kanna did at being a mother. “I’ve been thinking… you can’t keep living at that hotel. I’ve got a place. You and the kids are welcome to it.” He paused for a moment, and then quickly decided to cut straight to what she knew was on his mind. “This isn’t about us, either. You know how I feel about you, but that’s neither here nor there. Kids need a real house. That’s all.” [Mr. Smoothie] Kevin tilted his head to the side. “I mean… I guess we could try that.” He had never been a big fan of that approach, but maybe it would work. [Streets] “F-Floaties?” Korina asked, tilting her head. She knew very little of the world. Although she was sure that she had never been swimming before. It was all a little intimidating, but Erin seemed nice. Hah. [The Ark] “I hope this works.” Arcee said with a slight sigh as she leaned against the railing of the walkway. “There’s no way to know how the humans might react…” [TRS Crusader] Before Rinoa could respond, the door slid open and Asuka walked in (presumably with Omega in toe). “Are you busy?” Asuka asked as she walked in. She paused, turning her head towards Rinoa, who looked back to her for a moment. There was a brief silence, before Asuka returned her attention to Didymus. “I was wondering if you could find out where Peterson is stationed. I’d like to give him a call.” Asuka explained. |

[Horizon Colony] "They litterally stopped the people in their tracks....No wonder it looks like everything here was ended so abruptly." Crystal muttered, eyes wide as she watched the screen. Bugs freaked her out....Even moreso now. So then the next question came... "So what happened to all the petrified people?" Crystal shuddered. Haven [Park] Kanna watched as Rica scooped up Laila, and the woman couldn't help but to (very briefly) smile. As odd as it sounded she was reminded of Jason and Kain, during one of the very brief stints of him being around. She was glad Rica was able to get this kind of connection with his child, he deserved it after missing out on Jason. He may have been a creep and a ruthless killer at times....But Rica was a good man. Or at least he was fiercely loyal to those he cared about. “I’ve been thinking… you can’t keep living at that hotel. I’ve got a place. You and the kids are welcome to it. This isn’t about us, either. You know how I feel about you, but that’s neither here nor there. Kids need a real house. That’s all.” Kanna looked up for a moment, letting her long hair fall over her shoulder. "I appreciate the offer. Ethan has done the same...And it would probably be better for the children to be in an actual house....It's just-" Kanna went silent for a moment. She didn't want to admit it but her nerves were getting the best of her. She often woke up in full blown panic attacks, forcing herself to calm down lest she wake the babies. After a few moments she usually would calm down, but it still shook her up quite a bit. It was also horribly embarrassing to be still having panic attacks over things that happened in the past. If there was anyone she could talk to about this it was probably Rica. But....Auggggh he was also the last person she wanted to seem sad and dainty around. "How long did it take you to stop freaking out....everything" Hawkins' House Melanie currently felt very stupid, but accepted Galv's kiss none-the-less. She stood up, pressing down her long black hair so that it was out of the way. "I'd rather stay here, but I guess we have to go downstairs eventually....I'd much rather stay here with you though" She wondered what she should do to keep the boy around. What would Erin do-nope nope nope nevermind. That's where Solanna came from. |
