So this is going to be a story that connects all of the RPs I participated in the past (and Thin abandoned), there is going to be a lot of cross overs done and many shenanigans will take place. So sit tight and enjoy the ride.

TIME WARRIORS
Chapter 0: Things betwixt
"Gwen... where the hell are you?"
The voice, the voice was all that the white haired girl could hear in between the bristling wind and falling leaves, a strange gruff echo inside of her hear lead her into the depth of the forest. She was like a blood hound, tracking ever closer to the source of that voice, she heard the murderous intent in that voice but didn't know why. Clockwork is a huge place, where one cannot expect to make friends without making a few enemies.
The girl had more than enough enemies to content with, and the man hiding in this very forest wasn't going to be her last unlucky adversary, she flied across several rotten tree log with inhuman flexibility, every time landing perfectly on her two feet. She continued to push on with her extraordinary stamina and stopped at a clearing in the dense grim forest, where the echo in her ear suddenly stopped, it was a sharp sting in her head, like suddenly having one of your eye balls pull out of your socket.
It took a while for the girl to clear up the headache and for a while she felt as if something important in the world was missing, she didn't know what it is, until suddenly, a flash in the darkness, a reflection of a sniper scope caused the girl to instinctively lower her body profile. Her heart sank and for a second when she though that she was dead as even with her super human reflex, a speeding bullet will not be denied of its target.
But the sniper shot never came, the world around her was stuck in a deadly silence as rain drizzled gently down on the terrain, the girl's muscles were still tense from the reflex she pulled off, frowning at the flash in the darkness she preemptively jumped at what is believed to be her attacker. She charged through the thick wood before revealing a pair of psi-blades from inside of her sleeves, she stared dead into the darkness as the psi energy lit up her surroundings, 'COME and face me coward!" she yelled in her mind.
As the her surrounding was lit up, before the girl, there was only a pile of white skeletons, covered in molds and rotten rags, the size of the bones indicated that the corpse once belonged to a man with a large build, one of his finger bone was found stuck inside the trigger of a rusted sniper rifle, upon a closer inspection, there was no bullets in the magazine. Its scope, however, stood intact.
There were more questions in the girl's mind than the answer that was given, the man that only called out for her minutes ago is now dead on the ground, decayed for what seemed to be days. How could this be? The timeline in cradle is convoluted, unknown to this girl, a fissure in time was carved.
Chapter 1: The day when time stood still
*beep*

The heart rate monitor swung up and down like a pendulum, like an alarm clock for the wounded man that laid helplessly in the patient's bed, he couldn't remember why he was here, an explosion, the vivid vision of a woman slowly melting away in his minds cape were all that he could recall. He tried to lift himself up from the bed, but he was strapped solidly in the bed, with one of his hands calved to the side of the bed. The blinding light on the ceiling created a silent ambiance, it was quiet in the hospital, quiet as if the time it self have stopped.
"Mister Pythonne, you have a visitor..." suddenly, an alien female voice knocked on the door before oping it, completely without the patient's permission, although one thing was for sure, to the outside world his name was 'Pythonne' and that was the only thing he could be sure of.
As the door slowly slides open it was accompanied by the longest screech that was ever heard by the man, a pair of stone high heels clicked their way across the tiled floor as the screech stopped, the man zoomed his vision and saw that the heels belonged to a strange yet familiar woman, blue skinned, slender and thinned to the bone .
"..." the man didn't know what to say, but his visitor grinned in response to his silence, beneath those bone white teeth was the woman's murderous intent, she had a bouquet of black roses in her right hand but those were only there to fool the hospital staffs, as the string on the bouquet loosened and the black petals of the roses fell to the ground, the blue woman revealed a stone dagger from between the harmless branches of the flowers. The man panicked in response and tried to break free of his bed, but it was no use, he was trapped in the room with a murderess who only wanted his death, a scream was in his throat, ready to burst out at any second.
"Oh, Saboteur..." the blue woman addressed him in an unfamiliar name as she climbed onto his bed in anticipation of the sweet agony that about to be experienced by her victim, with her slender thighs locked around his waist, the woman aimed the dagger at the man's heart with two hands, ready to unleash a flurries of frenzied stabs, "You will die for what you did to me," the grotesque woman spoke, "Slow and painfully..."
At the last possible second, when death seemed inevitable, a speeding bullets burst into the hospital and found its mark in the woman's temple, so powerful was the impact of the bullet that the blue murderess was sent flying across the room and slammed into pale hospital wall, then her lifeless body slowly dripped down into a pool of her own blood. It was sniper bullet no doubt, only a high caliber bullet could have such a momentum. Before the man could free himself and thank his sniper savior, the emergency alarm of the hospital sounded off, a series of loud footsteps signaled the evacuation of the entire hospital, a reasonable response to a gun shot.
"HELP!" the man yelled while trying to free himself, but no nurse came to unleash him, his heart sank when he looked back at the corpse of the murderess as she slowly crawled back up with still three forth of her head still splattered across wall, she slowly snatched back her dagger and sneered back at him.
"I, queen Mezizas," the woman scorned as she slowly climbed back with a hole still , defying all scientific explanations, the expression on her face was that of a monster, twisted with her lips bent into the shape of a crescent moon, "You got a friend huh? Doesn't matter because you will die here alon-"
A sniper rifle's butt stock found its mark on the woman's cheek with a clean cracking sound of her jaw bone and she was knocked out before she could recover from the head shot. The man was pleased that his sniper savior was finally here, his savior was not what he expected, a burly, long haired old man with a improvised sniper rifle in his rugged hands, he wasted no time for introduction and produced a lock pick from inside of his mouth and freed the patient in bed.
"Thank you-"
"Cut the crap!" the old sniper quickly grabbed the man and forced him out of his bed, he looked back at the blue woman, she was getting back up again.
"Is there anything in this world that can kill this b**ch?!" the patient yelled with sweat on his brow, "And why is she after me?!"
"The hell would I know?! Quick, we need to get away before she recovers!" the old men rushed out the patient but not before hastily barricading the room door with a hospital bed, every second they can slow down the woman is a second that was worth it. There was no time to question his savior, the patient followed the old sniper all the way to the end of a long corridor where an elevator led to the bottom floor, the old man impatiently spammed the elevator button, urging it to open. In the distance, a loud groan erupted from the patient's original room.
"SABOTEUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRR!!!" the blue woman was back, she limped her way to the other side of the corridor where she spotted the two men once more, she sneered like a wolf on the prowl and uttered a mantra of foreign gibberish, slowly her physical form changed into the shape of a wolf and her voice changed into one as well, she grounds her new canines and rushed for them. In the last second, the elevator door opened, the Old sniper and the patient ducked down and the she-beast missed her intended goal, small elevator couldn't handle the weight and the metal cable snapped under the pressure, dragging the raging beast down into the underground storage area.
The tension was relieved for a moment as the patient finally got time to sit down and catch a breath, waking up after a long time on the hospital bed was not good for his muscle and he now felt it the hard way. The old sniper on the other hand, tapped his foot impatiently awaiting for the patient to recover.
"You still haven't told me your name... old man..." the patient stared at the old sniper, judging from the battle scars on his body, the old man was surly a soldier or a hired gun prior to the rescue, hence contributing to his remarkable accuracy with a sniper rifle.
"It is Affraiel... Affraiel Greyionne..." the old man halfheartedly replied, "And you are Saboteur... right?"
The patient felt a slight discomfort by the strange nickname, the one used by the blue woman who tried to kill him, "Saboteur? Is that like my nickname? But I remembered that before that crazy blue woman tried to kill me the nursed addressed me as Pythonne..."
"If I am correct," said the old man, "You must be Pythonne Selensky... ah, now I remembered, you are with the Morai legion before you went to cradle right?"
"No... I was with the Spiral Order, that is the one thing I could remember, the initiation ceremony was so boring I went to sleep the first time."
"Well, in my timeline you are a Morai."
"Excuse me?"
