On task!

Astran tapped the comm unit. "Hmm, very well 'Operator.' I've elected to trust you for now, absent other information." He jogged over to the Garrison and looked around. There were way more Guild Halls there than when he'd last visited the Garrison; had it really been that long since he'd been to this part of town? He had to find a way to contact them all at once.

Siren.

He found the town siren and opened a channel to the Operator again. "Tell me Operator, how serious is this? Should I use the siren?"

Reactions to a broken scream.

Looking around at the systems that made up the man part of the security systems. "No, I tried that already. Besides we had the Royal family attacked as well as three bombs go off today. I am sure the people of the Guild Hall's have been warned. I can help you rule out any empty halls. As for your current Party memeber, from the looks of it he has cleared about a quarter of the current halls." Starting to type on the cosole, which could clearly be heard from the ear piece. After a moment a mini-map was uploaded to the Knights suites system. "Alright their is everything I see at the moment. I will get as much information as possible. Also you should be hooked into Number 66's Commu-"

Before he could finish the sound of an explosion was heard in the back round as well as a loud. "I told you to get out! The next one will do more then a warning you brats!" It was Number 66 (He is in the Plasma Tech Demo out fit BTW) Voice as well as the sound of a bomb being armed. A small one, One-Star from the charge time. "Last warning or we are dragging our kocked out bodies on the second sweep!" He yelled aloud once more.

The Operator sighed and looked at the screen. "Hurry before he decides to move to the next level of Bombs."

Meanwhile

Ypsel sat against the rocky wall next to the doorway linking the arcade to the garrison, disguised as sleeping civilian knight, listening with glee to the clamor of the people dealing with the mess in the garrison. He had to stifle a giggle as he heard yet another small explosion.

After the man who had given him the little orb had walked off, Ypsel had used his disguise to safely walk to the bazaar. There, he had used his gun to persuade various people to give him a Mecha Knight, a remote control setup for it, and enough accessories to be able to disguise it as himself. He had been planning to simply try to detonate the thing he had been given itself, but he had lucked out and been able to get away with an actual bomb while the people who had apparently disarmed it had been talking amongst themselves.

In the arcade, where no one had been looking, he had dressed the robot up and given it both the orb and the bomb. He had had it walk to the garrison, to the door of the lab so as not to attract too much suspicion too quickly, and then to his target: the entrance of the guildhalls. He'd pressed a small red button, making the robot malfunction, and sending enough electricity into the bomb to set it off.

Ypsel figured that whoever had enough men to track him down would require a large place for them all. The guildhalls were one of the few places in Haven that met that requirement, so he had probably set back his pursuers. Even if he hadn't, he had faked his death at the same time.

After a while, Ypsel grew tired of listening. He opened his eyes, stood up, and went off across the arcade to find the Almirian.

Sigh of Relief + The Crimson Find

POW

As the word spread around the Spiral Order of the explosion at the Guild Halls, I heaved a sigh of relief at The Monsterslayers' Guild Hall's security. For I placed my Guild Hall right below Seerus's Grand Arsenal and the Gloaming Wildwoods. Someone would have to fight Seerus and the Snarbolax(es) one-on-one to get to me. Or, as my Guild Hall is close to Moorcroft Manor, they could try to make a life-threatening jump to the entrance and exit portal. The odds of a terrestrial being surviving the jump with this planet's grav pull (the cause of Knights' lack of jumping and the teleporting glitch) would be sixty-seven thousand to one. Then they have to fight through my awesome defences. So it isn't really easy to get into my Guild Hall and destroy it. A few days ago, reported in one of my earlier logs, I managed to stab three Worshippers in the head and another shot in the head at point blank range with my Shotgun.

Feron called up later that day, asking about the Crimson Coins my guild gets from the Grand Arsenal. He said the exact following:

"Defender Pow, I have seen you have been collecting some mysterious items from Seerus' Grand Arsenal and Compound 42. Brinks would like to have some for his stock, so people can use Warmaster Wisps to get them, like they can with Seerus' and Herex's conventional gremlin weapons.

I hear Armero has been busy in your Guild Hall. Pow, he has been making Seerus Mask recreations for The Monsterslayers, has he not?"

I instantly said yes.

Feron continued. "He is starting to release these to the public, but to make it fair, he will give you a 25% crown discount when making an item out of Crimson Coins. I will make sure he keeps that promise.

Brinks said to me and Armero that nobody could get the Seerus mask recreations and all that if Crimson Coins were not for sale. Only your guild knows where the late Warmaster hides his mysterious coins, so Brinks would like to have some. Brinks, get on the line!"

Brinks temporarily took over. "Pow, every time you or one of your guildmates gives me a Crimson Coin, I will ask Spiral HQ to deposit ten thousand crowns and a Spiral Blue Bed into your Treasury. Feron, you an have it back now"

Feron was back on the line. He finished with "Please turn in some of these artifacts to Spiral HQ. Our Geo Knights would be very intrested in your find. Lieutenant Feron out."

I only managed to say "Bye, Feron." before the transmission stopped. It was just Feron turning it off. Or that was what I thought...

Evacuate!

Astran rushed into each guild hall, crying "You are being bombed! Get out!" Many people heeded him and began filing out. Others needed some "persuasion."

*BANG*
*click*
"Okay, okay, we're going! Sheesh..."

He didn't encounter much trouble with the evacuations until he hit the larger guilds. He had to find the intercom for each one, deliver an evacuation call, and scour the area on his radar for knights who didn't hear him.

He eventually reached the largest guild hall in the garrison, the Spiral Order Headquarters. He ran up to the front desk and gasped, "Get...everyone...out. Bombs." The stunned clerk nervously picked up the phone and said, "The guild hall must close due to dire emergency. Everyone please exit the building. I repeat, the guild hall must close due to dire emergency. Everyone please exit the building. Thank you for your cooperation."

Silence. She picked it up again and muttered into it, "We're being bombed!"

Suddenly, the guild hall was a rush of activity. She picked up her own equipment, whispered a "thank you" to Astran, and rushed out. Another bomb went off, destabilizing the roof and bringing parts of it down. Astran supervised the evacuation, ensuring that it was done in an orderly fashion.

When nearly everyone was out, the roof began collapsing everywhere; it had caught on fire. Flaming pillars descended upon the building, blocking several rooms. He heard faint cries coming from the other end of the hall, and raced over to investigate. They were coming from the East Wing, which was now engulfed in flames. Astran donned his faceplate and cautiously stepped through the fire.

A young woman, no older than 6 or 7, was trapped underneath a fallen beam. Astran dodged a fireball from the roof and knelt down to help her. "Help me out, please! I don't want to die! I don't want to die-ie-ie..." she sobbed, panicking. He stroked her hair for a moment and whispered reassuringly, "Don't panic, miss. We'll get you out." He slid to the floor and tried to lift the beam, but it was too heavy. He tapped his comm and shouted over the sounds of the fire, "Fenix! You there, boy?"
"Yeah, I'm here. What's that noi-"
"It's a fire! Can you send your mom's Seraphinx over?"
"Her name's 'Darling,' dad."
"What-frikkin'-ever!! Send Darling over here!!"
"Sorry, okay, sending her over."

After a short period of eternal damnation, Darling mewed behind Astran. "Thank goodness! Make sure the fire doesn't reach us." Darling mewed in acknowledgement. Astran fished for his rifle and aimed it at the beam. "Don't move a muscle, missy. I'm gonna shoot this thing." The girl nodded painfully and plugged one ear with her free hand. Astran fired, and split the beam after emptying the clip. He slid back down and lifted the end trapping the girl, but she didn't move. "Get going! Before I...lose my grip!" he exclaimed, straining against the great weight. The girl sobbed, "I can't move! It hurts!" Astran set the beam down briefly and shouted to her, "Grab hold of that Seraphinx! Darling, drag her away on my mark." He strained and lifted the beam again. "MARK!!"

With the girl in tow, the sprite moved the girl away from the beam. Astran rolled away and let the beam drop with a clatter. Without another word, he picked up the girl, slung her over his shoulder, and hauled her outside the guild hall, where Fenix waited anxiously. "Dad! What happened in there?" Astran groaned and shrugged. He laid the grateful girl down on the lawn, where waiting medics rushed to her aid.

The guild hall, or what was left of it, finally collapsed under its own weight. Astran opened a channel to the Operator. "They're all out safely. What do you want me to do now?"

Blasting the past from out Future.

Number 66 looked around as he held the last of the Bombs that were needed to be disarmed in hand. "To heck with this. Hope number 60 does not get angry he said as he rushed past Astran with at least fifteen deactive cluster and Reset Crimston Bombs in hand. Three were still active and needing disarmerment. But he did not have time to do it as everything was falling appart around him.

The Operator wheeled his chair around till he was back at the Camera's display and started typing. "Alright, go help number 67. He is dessed like number 66, but outside trying to understand what happened. Let em contact Skotino for further infromation. I have a feeling when he meets his new 'friend' in the Bazaar you will need to met up their and descuse what to do next. As it stands the Bazaar is clear of bombs now as well as shops opening back up." He started typing once more placing a blip on number 66 as well as numbe 67 on Astran's mini-map. "Looks like 66 has gotten the last of the Bombs...." THeir was a long pause as the Operator seemed to dissappear from the sound of the chat. "Alright, Skotino says its best if you take control over their. Since you would be a better leader in the recovery of anything else. I am sending a message to the Spiral Order for more troops as well as sending over a group of Regulators to asist in clean up."

Stopping for a moment Number 66 looked at Astran and chuckled as he tossed him a bomb. "Its non active, but we need to stop the blast from taking anything else down. Don't worry its a Fire Bomb. Set it about ten meters infront of the inferno and arm it. Once it goes of it will cause a back flash of fire and snuff its self as well as this one from the suddon loss of oxygen. Just fair warning, once you arm it bolt! because its going to get hard to breath for about an hour down here." 66 then pulled out a second Fire Bomb and ran in the other direction of the fire to plant the second charge. Yelling back he said. "It has a minute timer!"

The Operator cam back up on the line. "All systems are down in the lower levels of the Guild Hall but before they went down I did not detect any life signs. So from the looks of things its empty, also the Spiral Order and the Regulators are outside aiding in Medical treatment as well as blocking off the Hall of Hero's and Lap. Everything seems secure top side so the show is open. Call me back if you need anything else, I have another matter to get taken care off, also whats your name so I have it for record on this channel."

The Reply

"Call me the 'Hunter.' I will not give you my name until you've given me yours." He closed the channel and looked a Fenix, who was nearly dancing with curiosity. "Who was that, Dad? What's going on?" Fenix asked him. Astran heaved a deep sigh and closed his eyes. "I don't rightly know, son. I seem to be mixed up in a rescue op with some guy who calls himself the 'Operator.' Go figure." Fenix tilted his head and quipped, "Do you suppose we could trace his position using the comm?" Astran stopped and thought about it. That boy...is probably right! "No, I don't have the equipment for that. Good thought, though."

He patted Fenix on the back and played with the bomb in his hand. "I don't think 66's plan is going to work. One can't fight fire with fire." The boy nodded. "I agree. Want me to grab a freezer?" He was referring to a Freezing Vaporizer. Those things were cheap, though not for a young boy with no income like himself. Astran chuckled. "Naw, I should have one in my arsenal somewhere. I don't have any fire bombs, though, so we don't exactly need to give this thing away." He fished through his arsenal and found a Shivermist Buster. "Good heavens! I'd clean forgotten that I owned one of these." He tossed it to Fenix, who fell over as he caught it. "Hey, be careful now!" Astran said with a laugh.

There was another explosion. They'd forgotten that 66 had set his firebomb just a minute before. "Darn! That'll set me back a ways," Astran muttered. He watched as 66's plan backfired and spread the fire. Fenix charged in and tossed the Shivermist into the fire. As it froze over the area, he armed another one. "Whaddo I do with this one, dad?" Astran armed one of his own and pointed at the inferno. "Toss it square in the middle of the inferno." Fenix looked at it and exclaimed, "But that's too far! I'm not that good of a thrower!" Astran took it from him and threw it himself. It didn't land in the middle, but rather on the outer edge, and took out the corresponding area of the fire. With his other bomb in hand, he threw it into the remaining fire and put it out entirely.

He dusted off his hands and muttered, "I'm not a firefighter, darn it! I'm a gunslinger." He turned to Fenix and beckoned, "C'mon son, let's go." He caught up with Astran and asked, "Where we goin'?"

"We're goin' to the Clockworks." They traveled to the Arcade, where Astran spotted an odd-looking fellow [Ypsel-Bissop; what the heck does he look like right now?]. He walked up to the guy and asked, "Say, I couldn't help but notice that you seem a little strange." He extended his right hand in greeting. "I'm Astran."

Posting the dark.

[#66]

Looking around making sure every one was gone and he was alone. Once he was 66 reached up and tapped the side of his helm. "Well? You heard everything I did. Also, I set up the wires. The bombs were a nice reason to be here. Also, I set up a plethora of Dark Retribution bombs all around the marked side. All panels are set and everything else is covered. No way they will find them, after all I was trained by the best. Thou I have to ask, if we were going to take this place down why not hit the vidal points?"

[Operator]

The sound of clicking was heard as the Operator changed the channels to a secure and untapped line. "Look, I don't know why he wanted it done either. We just follow the orders other wise its Order 6. besides, I don't think it is wise to go agiced the thinking of Skotino. Did you make sure they are untraceable to the Watch?"

[66]

"Ya, they where made by #60. Her work is legendary and when she makes a bomb, the fire works are to die for. But this is weaker, from the looks of it this is more like a knock out thing. Ah well either way this will be interesting to see." He said as he made his way out side and looked at the Order turning off the communication device he had on his person. "Alright it's clear but heavily damaged. Also I placed some small cha-" The sound of small explosions came from behind 66 as well as a suddon rush of wind with small chunch of debree. "Never mind, all the big stuff is now small ruble."

Number 67 sighed and slapped him upside the head. "Sorry, Operator. We have an id of what happened here. Seems that some one set off a mech of some kind. I have collected what looks like armor as well as a Spiral Order build Mech. The barer must have desided to off himself as well as disrupt the Guild Hall. As for number 66 I am sure his smaller explosions made it easier to clean."

[Operator]

"Copy. Skotino wants you and 66 to go back to the Bazaar. As for the rest of the medical team we sent. Leave them, also sending a special gift around Haven. It will seem rushed but the boys in Sight 51 said they finished this last week and wanted to test it out....Orders changed boys. Head back to Sight 10, Number 60 will be waiting for you as well as one of the 50's for debriefing." The Operator wheeled his chair around the console he was working on. "Skotino they are on their way back now. Also the green light was given to the lab boys. The Recreation of the Construstions known as 'Love Puppys' Are being sent via the transporter in three...two...one." Hitting the enter button, the computer started running a promp as well as a command inside of a black window. Line after line of code flew by while all round haven a purple myst popped up from the ground as well as the sound of something being pushed up. "Dark Matter Transport is a success." He said, as he said that hatchs popped open and from the ground arose at least three 'love Puppy's' in the Bazaar as well as three in the Garrmison, Town Square, The Lab, Training Hall and Hall of Hero's did not get anything. How ever one popped up in the center of the Arcade. "Hmm one went off course. But we are out of Dark Matter so we can't do anything about it. At least we got constructs working, still working on sending bio-creatures. Turning down power and hacking the main line of Haven...in. I now have a birds eye view of everything Skotino."

[Skotino]

"Look D. I told you everything will work out. We have a DNA sample of the man who killed himself so we don't have to worry...No I don't care." Getting up Skotino turned off the black box he was holding making up the visual part of his communication device and started walking to the center of the Bazaar heading to the arcade. "I need to have a chat with one of the lab techs. Might meet number 66's new friend." It took him a good couple of minutes but once he was in their, Skotino sat beside the Love Puppy that seemed to be doing nothing but looking around at the many of Knights. Healing any that got too close.

Our Turn

POW

Once I heard of the destruction of the normal Guild Halls, I went REALLY angry at the Worshippers' dirty tricks. I WILL get revenge. The Worshippers are no longer safe.

I laughed as the defenceless Guild Halls' masters were running around, arms flailing. It ended up with me whispering "Told you so."

But some defended Guild Halls were not rubble and ruin. For example, there is another Guild Hall next to mine, owned by a heavenly Spiral Guardian who also is my companion on many a mission. Both of our Guild Halls were not even chipped. My Guild Hall had a blast marking at the highest point, but that is from the countless raids on Crimson Order territory above and not Worshipper attacks.

Ypsel-Bissop

It's like I'm wearing butter instead of disguises.

I took Astran's hand and shook it, glad the wolver helm I wore masked my scowl of annoyance. I wanted to get away, to keep searching for the Almirian and his party. I saw the armor he was wearing, though, and the gun at his side. I knew how to use the gun I had stolen fairly well, and but I could tell was dealing with someone with far more experience. This guy could probably kill me several times over before I could even draw my gun, and he was much too alert for me to surprise him with the broken Faust I used as a knife.

"I'm Jake. I heard a bunch of explosions, so I was gonna go up to the castle to make sure the King's okay. After that, I'll probably get to hunt down whatever guy who did it." I pounded my fist into my other hand for emphasis, hoping Astran bought the wolver clone act. Realizing that Astran might have heard of or seen the Almarian, I asked, "Have you heard anything about what happened?"

Skotino/Skolver Klones?

"The king's fine, he's in paradise now. I don't know who sent him there, but they left a big hole in the wall and a lot of dead bodies in their wake. And that's somehow related to the guild hall bombings. Go figure. I'm about as keen on finding this guy as you are, so I reckon it makes sense for us to team up. Whaddya say, Jake?" He lit his pipe, puffed a thin trail of smoke, and offered a lite to Yspel.

Fenix crossed his arms and huffed. Skolver clones. Deadbeats, the lot of them.

Welcome to the mad house.

Sitting up Skotino touched the side of the Puppies head as it shot at a passing knight. For some reason it refused to shoot at him, but Skotino was not going to tell. "Look D. I think thats the person." He said point to the far wall. Slowly he drew his blade and walked slouched but still looking up. As he did, the armor he had on or rather the part where the teeth meshed opened rather sinsterly. Coming close tot he wall Skotino reached out grabbing something and looking at his hand after words slowly opening his hand. "D. its getting worse. I am seeing things that arn't their...No, I am not crazy not yet." He then sighed and replaced the blade in it's sheath on his back pulling out black square and looking it over. Using his finger he flicked through the screen and stopped when he got to a screen. Looking over at Astran, then the person in the Wolver suite he sighed. "D. the DNA sample proved up positive, we better hope that person didn't kill him self. He is more a threat dead then alive..." He then placed the square away and reached under his helm scratching something, pulling his hand back their was a trace amount of liquefied Dark Matter, but unless some one was paying complete attention, this would have been over looked as Skotino whipped his hand clean. -low- "Its getting worse, I need to go back to that world soon. Sight 51 said it would pass...."

[Operator]

Kicking on his key board faster the man behind the desk saw what had happened as well as started opening up net ports as to asert his current network domoince as well as cut off any back traces. "Funny thing is, I just got a person trying to cut back on me Skotino. Closed them down and blocked there network access. Anyway, should I send a me-...alright I am doing it anyway. Call it even for the bet ont he Royal's life."

[Skotino]

Sitting next to the Puppy letting it do its work as he waited, thankfully it was not long before a field medic rushed over and started working on him. The Medic was female from the look of it, however she seemed a little distressed expression on her face. Taking the black box that had a rather clear danger sign on it she opened it and took out a small needle as well as a vile of purple liquid that had a slight glow to it. Taking the needle and filling it to the ten mark. She lifted the helm a little and stick Skotino in the neck. Once the liquid was injected into his neck she pulled it back and placed it back into the box. Standing up she took off back to the Garrimson as she did, the expression on her face was sick.

Skotino ajusted his helm and looked around trying to understand why the Operator upped his current dose but did not fight agiced it. -low- "So, they want me to just down it in full bursts now..." He said to some one that was not their.

Kiryu

Kiryu's eye twitched in irritation as the boy caught up to him and asked, "So your name is Kiryu? I don't know my name, so I can't give you mine..."

"Yes, I'm Kiryu. And how could you not know your own name? That's completely ridiculous... Now will you please be quiet? I never thought sidekicks would talk so much."

Still sulking about his loss at the Lockdown arena, Kiryu stalked towards the guild halls. He saw a man rushing into each hall, screaming, "You are being bombed! Get out!" Many people heeded him and began filing out. Others seemed suspicious, until the MOAB struck.

((MOAB is Kiryu's definition of an enormous explosion. It stands for Mother of all bombs))

*BANG*
*click*

Kiryu coughed. "Holy ducksh*t..." and proceeded over to the Spiral HQ just in time to see the roof collapse onto the building. He spotted someone leap into the East wing of the HQ and shook his head. The idiot was going to die.

Sighing in exasperation, Kiryu waved to Mako and the boy that had been following him.

"Come on, let's make sure that moron doesn't die for his stupidity."

Waking the departed

[Sight 51]

"Alright, start it up again. We have more Dark Matter. And from the source we are getting it from, their is no sign of slowing our experiments." The Head Lab Tech said as he walked around the two massive constructs they were working on. He had just gotten of the comm. device with the Operator, clearly getting the news about Skotino's suddon 'bleeding' insendent. THe man had a patch on his shoulder that said '71'. From the looks of it the man was in control and trying to run an operation as before. Looking over the two constructs he sighed as he went behind his desk. It had taken them many years to get the many parts it took to remake the Hollitzer Twins they were calling Numbers 101 and 102. Both of them had a way to be mobile like their counter parts. However these ones were going to be fitted with better weapons as well as even more more experiments to keep him busy. 71 did not question anything he was doing, not once but this time. What his leader had order to be done with when the time came.

Reaching down to the and pulling out a tube of purple liquid that had a slight glow to it. "Pure Shadow essence," A recorder started as he spoke holding the tube of liquid, "exrated from the shadow gates of the clock works and from the purest vanes of Dark Matter. It took us ney on four years to get this simple tube. Four years and countless lifes lost in experiments, but we found it was not the liquid killing people. Its there DNA that was rejecting it. From this we have concluded why each Knight tends to lean to one type of ability or armor. Sadly this was proven false, still we have also come to other conclusions yet each one came to the same dead end. When I started my research on the Essence of the Shadows that man Skotino came to me and offered me funding as well as all the technology I would need to finish. I guess this is a mans remorse for the things I have done and their is no way to stop this now. He has infected himself and from the looks of it is slowly suffering the effects. Yet I have to give him credit. When we needed human test subjects Skotino was the first to come to me and offer himself. At the time I suppose we were bewildered to see him do something that is out of the normal. A leader who willing put himself in harm for his people. Odd but I am glad he did." 71 placed the tube down. "101 and his sister are almost ready for deployment. I don't know why we made a healing one as well as a harming one...Still the implcations of something else, the Black Rain, we think it is this. The Pure Essence we collected...Anyway this along with the report will be sent to Skotino as well as his Second in command Deadman." 71 turned off the recorder and left hiding the Tube once more.

[Skotino]

Getting up the man sighed and looked at the puppy. "Why won't you heal me?" He asked as the Puppy looked up at him for a moment before barking and turning to face another Knight shooting it's healing bullet at its current target. Skotino shook his head as he placed one hand on top of the Puppy's head and started to pet it. -low- "D. how much longer do you want me to stand here. I sware if you pulled a fast one on me no more candy for a week." Looking to where Astran was and seeing him lighting up a pipe he sighed and walked over. "Hay got any mints? I need something with Sugar in it other wise I will go off my already broken rocker."

Uh huh. Saving a building?

Kiryu waved me over, "Come on, let's make sure that moron doesn't die for his stupidity."

I grin. "Why walk, when you can fly?" I spread my wings through the slits, then with a sudden burst of speed, fly to the 'moron' that Kiryu had called, then pulled him out of danger.

"Hey moron. See that building? Basic logic. Building on fire. Building falls down. Building hits knights, bad bad thing. So run along now." I said, hovering in the air. "Hey Nightfang? Check out if there's any more people in it. One shadow star says you can't do it in a minute."

"Betcha I can! Shadow Star, here I come!" Nightfang was out of his room in a flash, then zoomed into the building. I see Kiryu catch up, then I grin. "What took you so long?"

Someone help me catch up? And return Trey's shield...?

A shield falls to Astrand's feet, the Almirian text translating itself...(must be read to summon Trey...)
Tredecim
DAY 1
Today was no ordinary day. A demon-like creature was seen far off in the mountains, pointing at the sky. A black sphere seems to be nearing out own sun. Vanaduke has asked me to keep track of the next few days. I feel uneasy. The demon didn't seem hostile or any of that intent. Nor pitiful. It seemed..happy. That's that the only description that fits it...or at least fits it in my mind.

DAY 3
A military has been created and is recruiting. It has been considered that the demon was warning us of an attack from the skies from which we came ourselves.

DAY 5
The Valkyries are now being accepted into the military. It has been broadcasted that our Manifester machine has given up manifesting. Using unimportant buildings, it has been declared we will use their materials to create our weapons. I'm glad no one suspects me of the Manifester's problem. I have an idea of what happened to it may be concerning my very own necklace I crafted with it.

DAY 9
Training for the military has begun. The government has requested for anyone who knows how to wield a sword to join. Vanaduke has excluded me from joining, saying I am too precious to lose.

DAY 10
Chaos has come upon our numbers today. Never in history has such a terrible fate come amongst us. A murder has occured. The murderer was quickly exiled from our peaceful way of life, and forced to wander this strange planet for the rest of his mortal life. This has been a tragedy. The dead one's family hasn't been accepting visitors. The worst thing is...no one knows their pain. A murder has never happened amongst our numbers. Today is a dark day. I feel many more are to follow. A shield has been place arund our city. No one can get in, and only a chosen few can get out.

DAY 11
MASSACRE! MASSACRE EVERYWHERE! TODAY, ONLY FOLLOWING THE DAY OF OUR FIRST MURDER, MANY HAVE BEEN FOUND DEAD IN THE STREETS! I CAN ONLY HIDE UP IN THE CITADEL AND WATCH THE POOLS OF BLOOD TRICKLE THROUGHOUT THE CITY! MANY HAVE BEEN EXILED! I FEAR THE SKY AS THE BLACK SPHERE GETS CLOSER TO THE SUN!

DAY 12
The bodies have been cleaned out of the city. Many funerals have been organized. One fourth of the city has been exiled, and one fourth has been killed. The sphere gets closer to our sun with each hour. The military has been posted on the city boarders. My necklace is hidden in a chamber above the doorway. There has been a Valkyrie that's been far more beautiful than the others. In all my eighteen years, only she has given me a heartbeat. We've spent time together since we were both fifteen. Although my father has betrothed me to one of the richest lord's daughters, I deny her as she denies me. The necklace(which I've called Pact because of what it allows) will be a gift to her, and shall connect our lives in and after death. No one has had a love like this before as far as I'm aware. The Manifester machine's power source will go into me, and I've connected her to a power source only known as the Core, and we will be reborn through the Pact to our natural power sources, which will reunite us through power frequency. It's been a long plan, but I think it'll work if we end up in death. We may sacrifice our memory multiple times through multiple rebirths, but I know we will always return to each other. Because there will always be an Almire. And there will always be a Core. Almire will always be built near the same frequency as I've registered into the thought I've sent out. I've made sure of it.

DAY 13
I've given her the Pact and absorbed the power. It's amazing, this power. The sphere, however, has crossed our sun. Black rain, or something similar, has fallen from it, and it moves only in straight lines and sings a sinister song like machines activating protocols. It's just been...disturbing, sitting here these last few ours as the rain slithers across our dome. My dearest love has flown out to attack the rotting black corpses of the exiled murderers, which have turned up out of nowhere and attacked the shield dome. I'm worried about her. She is the only reason I go on in this seeming captivity. My Father isn't aware of the power I've absorbed. He's been busy preparing the military. If this storm goes on for much longer, all power will cease, and more people will die. We're keeping the dead in here, so as not to hand them over to the darkness that has possessed the corpses of the exiles. We, so it seems, are under seige...

DAY 14
I don't know how much time I have to inscribe this on the back of my shield. My father went to the mountains, and all of the Underworld has been released on our kind. Demons are throwing themselves and burning the dome shield, and crack have appeared. My father, though eradicating the corpses, has gone mad, and is attacking everything. Our beautiful city is burning into ruins. The dead are being possessed by an unholy flame. I've seen something or someone crash into the mountains. I will teleport there after I inscribe this to see what has happened. Something tells me I've done this before. I feel like in the next life I will know more, but for right now I'm clueless. Something about Vog's, which is what we have classified the demon as, Mountain, seems strange. It feels the way Almire does now that I've successfully let loose my thoughts across each universe(which is the idea of Almire and the frequency of my love, to ensure it is repeated. Once done, the thoughts of Almire and the frequency coming from others will spread too, and thus will spread infinitely so that Almire will always be there.) to build Almire. Vog's Mountain must be something of the same thing, and I feel Vog knows what I've been doing. It's all so confusing! But I will do all I can to survive as long as my love does so as well. And if I do die, I will still survive apart from death until I am resurrected, either by accident or by purpose. I'd best be headed toward the mountain...

DAY 15
We danced. This will be my last note on my shield. She and I danced, using our compatible frequencies to close the Underworld off. Trouble is, there is no home for us to go back to. Fire has consumed the land. We agreed we rather wait out the time without our bodies, since they were so tedious, and it hurt when they expire. I already knew she had taken her power from the Core, which is her reservoir of power as mine is the soul of the Manifester machine. She awaits as the second center of energy within the Core when she decides to leave a created body, and I await in my reservoir of energy, the Manifester machine's soul. Only...the Manifester's soul has a deeper story. But besides that, it's also something like the Core, only...the material and power is raw, thus I cannot control the frequency, like she does when she maintains the frequency of the Core so that she may stay on this plane. However, mine is something chaotic. It does work out though, as I'm able to watch from the above plane to make sure my only light is okay. I'm still disturbed by Vog's Mountain though. It feels like a place we perish at normally, which is one of the thoughts I'm always able to remember. It's only...well, when we let a body perish, it's easy to create another...it's just harder to imagine frequencies with these mortal bodies...so we forget our past lives. But we're drawn to each other no matter what. So it's time for us to part. But we will always be there for each other. I won't have trouble though, for my plane is only where I exist, seeing as hardly anything has that frequency these days. But the plane she stays within is full of life, it's ridiculous. She'll always have people to care for her and her for them, and all I want is for her to be happy. I might not be there for her if complications ever arise, which I've already dreamed of a golden-haired girl turning her back on me, and everyone around her suddenly going blind from doing so. Strange dream, but all my dreams have horrifying meanings. Ah, well. She's hurrying me up. I suppose it's time. I just have to take comfort that I'll be there when she needs me.

I took her hand, and pulled her close to me as I stood up and looked into her eyes. She was so pretty in the city's burning flame. We touched foreheads as I pulled her closer. We closed our eyes, and mutually give up our mortal bodies. Our souls float into the burning sky, and we sail into our new parallel universe to await new rebirth. But even so, we'll find each other. My plans so that it won't take long for us to find each other will work. However, the problem resides within a troubling dream my old body. I imagined a golden-haired girl turning her back on me, and everyone around her going blind. I'm afraid it'll interfere with my connection to my love. But I won't give up on us. Never

Explaining

Trey and his love are obviously extremely old souls. Though their mortal bodies deny to fully register their memories because of the capacity of those memories. But they're drawn to each other just like it's a law of physics for them to be near. When his love returns to the Core, she gives up her body so that she can operate the Core fully as her own mind. However, recreating her mortal body, she is instantly returned to her mortal life's memory. Same goes for Trey. But if they're mutually tired of their bodies, they can use a secret known only to them, which not even the Star Dragon can pry into their minds to see, known as the Pact. It passes them on to another dimension. But it seems it's this dimension has grown on them. Anyways, he crafted the Pact so they could remain together. No one has been able to find this ancient relic known as the Pact, though it's said if you find it, you can bind you and your person of choice to the necklace, and be immortal. However, if this is done, the owners of the Pact will turn chaotic, and there will be NOTHING to stop their transformation and wrath. It's advised not to find the Pact, but if you do, you could release your body and face rebirth. But there is the chance they'd risk following you. The owners are Trey and his love, and if you don't think they're scary when they're in combat...you've got another thing coming if you soil they're only true Sanctuary for meeting each other. Next, they've been connected for a long time. The Pact was made even longer ago from the present. They're unnaturally old souls.

Digging for the truth.

[Some where near the Core]

"This is Regulator 39 with dive team Omega. We are looking at the core looking over it. The Knights here are all more or less downed. None were killed but they will wake up soon. I am surprised Lieutenant Vaelyn did not see this coming. Anyway, we are copying the current level of research now. With any luck the boys at Sight 51 will be able to hurry their work, also we managed to pick up a saggering amount of Dark Matter Crystals from the dive. Remind me to thank the Bomb Queen her self for the poison filled sleep bombs. They work wonders when used right." THe man said as the sound of scraping was heard as well as computers being used. "You should be linked into the systems. Go ahead and remove the footage for this hour as to through off the Order. We don't need Captain Ozlo Ording our heads for knocking out his most trusted Knight."

[Operator]

"Alright, deleting all forage and auto recordings from the record now. Its easy to do when their system are black, and the fact I use to be a operator for them makes this all the more easy." Looking at his screen the Operator could easily see them with the live feed he had put on loop on the orders side. For a while he had been taking video samples of the Core units actions and spliced together a loop of video that made it look as if nothing was going on. Once they were done he had made a fake video of Grimilans attacking the unit and stealing some data from their computers their. "Alright I got the data, storing it on a offline server now. Also, the menrals you picked up will be needed at Sight 78 as soon as possible. They are starting to lose power." THe operator started typing out a rather long complex code as he warmed up the Dark Matter Tansporter to move something from Sight 78 to sight 51. It might have been a waste but they needed it moved as fast as possible with the fact they were losing power. Sight 78 was more a weapons and Armor development then full on research and development. Well hidden much like the other Sights owned by the Watch and spread out across this planet they were more prepared for facing the threats out side of haven then most common knights. "Question did you ever find the Knights in training we sent across the planets top?"

"Not yet when we get back to base we will place a track out for them. With any luck they survived, if not. Ah well they were not meant to be in our ranks. Hay what about 101 and 102?" #39 said aloud as his men finished their work and made their way to the elevator.

"Not on the comm. links, this is to insecure for such chatter. Operator out."

With that #39 walked over to the elevator and pressed the button as they kicked a group of Grimlin's off the elevator to make their story more convicing. They were killed using Stander Spiral weapons so none of the Darkwatchs shadow gear would have regustured when their bodies were looked over. Turing back to look over the knocked out Knights the man smiled. "I love this job." As he said that, he and his party left heading back up to haven until they needed to go on another dive.

The sounds of Howling.

[Slight 51]

Looking down at the creatures working on it the giant creature having just come to life barked, but it was a loud very loud. Infact it made the everything shake around it. Looking around it saw another creature much like its self. As far as it could tell, the bones as well as the skill for a head. Glowing purple eyes however it could not tell what was going on. All these questions that plagued its mind but did not know how to speak. And for that matter why could it think? Turning around a bit the creature barked once more as a group of smaller things in white armor as well as white long coats jumped back.

The sound of a deeper bark came from behind causing it to turn around. Looking where it came from the creature met the eyes of what it saw before. The tall creature with purple eyes. "They are alive! Quick get them on life support, we don't need them falling over from lack of energy. Make sure their bodies are powering themselfs! We have just remade life here with the data we collected from the core. We can't aford to let it go to waste!" Said one of the small creatures. Looking down a little it leaned to see one and tilted it head as it reached up and pet it on the nose. "At least its not feral like the Howlitzers we had to use to make them. Lets see...this is number 102. She seems to be in working order. Her body is self sustaining and working at full marks across the board. He on the other hand seems to be faltering seems the Twin project will have to be sent to Skotino as a single surviver..."

Blinking the creature lifted 'her' head up. Thinking the creature started to think. I am number 102, they said it....I am real...102. Family I think this 102 is related to me... The creature turned and barked at the one called 102. In turn it howled back but she could understand it as if it were talking normal speech. Barking back the two seemed to share many the same intrests and talked about the creatures that were now working on consoles. At some point 'he' leaned down tired and wanted to sleep but the small creatures were getting scared saying they should give up but the vidles said 101 was going to make it but his mind was starting to give up. Tilting her head she said, "Brother..." To which number 101 responded by trying to get back up however it fell down once more.

Using the two arm like attachments number 102 moved it's self much to the distress of the little creatures and leaned over and lifted number 101 up holding it their saying that one word again. "Brother." Of course the little creatures did not understand, all they heard were the sounds of two massive Howlitzers.

[71]

Looking at everything that just happened the Lab Tech leader stood shocked as the two Howlitzer Twins were doing what could only be described as, holding one another. It impressed him because all they did was rebuild these creatures growing them from Biological parts they scrounged from other Howlitzers. yet these two seemed to get long fine, infact they were more then fine as time went on the two creatures health signs went to that of stable healthy creatures. One by one the Bio-techs removed the tubes and wires that were the life support and started feeding the Howlitzers Crystals as well as other ores. They seemed to favor Crimsonite over everything else and hating lightstone. Walking back to his office the man said on the comm. device. "Operator! Get Skotino on the line. The Dark Twins project was a secess! We have the Twins alive and supporting themselfs with no live support systems!"

"He can not be reached at the moment. But I will give him the news as soon as possible. Operator out."

going back to his table the Number 71 smiled as he started writing notes and making a recording. "We did it today. Today we remade the Twins, only more capable and able of working togeher with a thinking mind! We do not yet know if they are sentient but we have the idea they are from the way number 102 moved it's self only a few moments after life to help her brother make it the rest of the way throu. IF all goes well the Dark Rain project may come to full light sooner then we hoped. As it stands we are more then 43 percent complete with the Phase one project. Skotino, I don't know what you did when you came here and set up the systems inside the twins but it worked after a year since you did it. We will keep watching them As soon as we can we are going to offer them to Haven as a sort of protecter program. If they refuse we will simply keep them at our Main HQ. BUt we have to test their mobility to make sure they don't try and run away. Honestly I hope Haven does not refuse them other wise Skotino will courpt them, they are still pure and kinder spirits. All we had to do was tap a little of the energy from the planet and they lived!"

The Recording stops here.

Skotino grumble a little as he heard the recording but kept a straight face as he looked the two in the eye after having started it when he was sitting next to the Love Puppy. Of course now he was waiting on his question to be answered.

Memories

TREY

I hold my head as I stand atop of a building, watching events unfold. I feel memories...like a sea breaking through a feeble dam. I see...I see her face. But these memories don't feel like mine, they don't feel like my own. I open my eyes, and a searing fire flies out of them. I take off my helmet, and my reflection looks so strange. Golden eyes, looking back at me. I turn my head to see an arrow pointing right at my face. I hold up my hand and ease the arrow and bow until they are pointed down so I can look into the eyes staring back at me. I smile, and she vanishes like smoke. Memories...she's just one of them. My only, dear younger sister. She was fierce, and when the time came to fight against the siege, she snuck out from our Father just as I did, and we fought, even after our race had perished at Father's hands, we fought the burning dead. Afterwards, the Eyes had found us. One blessed me, and the other blessed my sister, though my sister's was considerably less favored in the eyes of others. The Eye of the Swarm...it didn't corrupt her. Rather, she could use the Swarm as she pleased...and it wasn't terrible. She refused to infect others, and used it in battle as makeshift weapons...but even so, Vog was jealous. He stole her from me in seconds, capturing her with no more than a promise of being a queen. She accepted, and stands amongst riches within the Underworld. But it always seemed suspicious. My sister wouldn't leave me that easily. The only reason I could imagine for her leaving me would be for a man, and Vog was no man...but maybe someone else Vog used to lure her into the Underworld...maybe all that time ago, on the same night my shield was stolen...maybe...maybe someone has been planning this. Planning to sabotage my memories to the point of defacing my own property...someone who didn't want me to remember something...but what if I am remembering now? What if I've escaped their plan? I...must have...or else I wouldn't feel as whole as I do right at this moment. And that person...must be my main enemy...

I place my helmet on my head and withdraw my sword in under a second, spinning around and pointing the tip of my sword to the throat of a strange man with CURRmismatched eyes, one golden and one purple. But he vanishes like smoke as well. Damn these memories! I shake my head and walk over to the ledge, and peer down over the city. I need to find Vog, and save my sister and I's souls from his clutches. My golden eyes light up. Firstly, I need to find either the Darkwatch or Pow or Top, because I am more lost than a needle in a haystack...

@Seatus

Astran got contacted by the "Operator," whom I think is Darkwatck. He was tasked with rescuing the people from all the guild halls before they got hit by a bomber. The bombs went off in the last guild hall, the Spiral Order Headquarters. He rescued a little girl from a resulting fire in there, put out the fires later with some Shivers along with his son Fenix, and is now awaiting further orders (last I checked). I probably missed the last couple posts, though.

Predating the Wash

[Number 0 (The Warden Nychta)]

The sound of what could be described as a pipe was lit in the recordings followed by the suddle movement of ice in a drink. Shortly after a voice spoke once the glass was sat back down. "Son, I know when you find this in Haven's Old records, deep in the catacombs were my body will lay I am sure you will have found the the Tome of the Lost your mother has written and left you. I admit, it was not easy to fool the order for as long as I did making those blind beasts see something the way I saw it was not going to be easy so rather I opted to go against their wishs and started my research on the darker side of this worlds untapped power. " The sound of something burning was heard softy before a deep exhale of air. "Will you see me as the monster who made this liquid that fools them? Will they want me dead when they hear this, from the things I did back then. Son, what ever happens I need you to understand everything I did it was to ensure you would follow my work or burn it all down. I found this, thing. Its almost like the core and has a life force all it's own as if it is alive and pulsing. But from my research I am guessing it removes what we call the soul, from the body. I am speculating this only, but from what we were able to understand it belong to some one and shares a wave length with a mechanic we found one day. It was well hidden so it makes me think the person who made it wanted it hidden. That and the fact we found a shield I will leave for you to understand. It has very strange markings in it, but we decoded it and thus why we started our research into the the person call 'Dark Rain'. Something at this point I am sure you found out about and have more then likely raised a once living person as a 'murder' as the inscriptions depicted the victims." The man picked up his drink but stopped from the sound of the ice moving around slightly. "But damn them, I sent you to follow my path in the Wardens order. You might make it, no you will. But I want to give you my wisdom in this I leave you...Look to the Shield I left in the case in the Darkwatch's Volt. It's old but for some reason still as good as the day the owner written on it. The rest of this recording when you find it, if you find it, will be attached to some armor and parts to ajust it. Knowing how you act you will subject your self to the testing before the researchers can find a test subject. And I am sorry about what I did to you...I am the worst father for the Dark Matter testing I did. You might be able to survive in battle but the cost was not what I was expecting." The man took a drink and for a minute their was a small pause in his speech before coming back after another hard exhale. "The royal guard will be here soon son. They will more then likely smear our last name and make it something horrible. Because of this I have moved the Watch outside of the city and set up many sights to keep us from being found, its the least I can do." In the back round came the sound of beating on a door as well as the sound of metal being hit by wood. "Gouestfol, that is our last name. But as soon as I am pulled infront of the King of Haven, It will be removed from us and turned into something everyone shames....Skotino, don't forget who you are and when it comes to the project in the future. Remember, it was your family who did everything. I won't lie. Your grate grate Grand dad, he was the first murder to be kicked out of that city in those tails. Before he died he had a son and he passed on but not before his son, passed on the information as well as the research to make it happen again. Not because this city needs to go. But because twice over now, our name has been discrased." As he finished this secntence the sound of a door being busted down and armed troops rushed in with swords drawn and a gun being charded up for a shot.

The sound of a muffed voice is picked up. "Warden Nychta A. Gouestfol, you are under arrest by order of the King of this town. Should you prove your self to be hostal we are ordered to kill you here and now."

The man put down the pipe as he turned off the recording....

[Day of exicusion.]

The sound of a wind was heard aside from just the sound of dead silence. Nothing else was going on aside from the sound of armor clicking in time with one another. After a moment the group came to a halt before more rusling. "Nychta A. Gouestfol for the things you have done, to defy your order and take the lifes of your fellow troops as well as the people of this city. You have been judged by your Order and by the courts at this world we have all come to this judgement. For your crimes as dark as they are, you will be forgotten and executed, Any who bare your name will be shamed and forgotten..." After that their was the sound of a blade cutting into flesh and then, nothing...

Audio ends there....

Finding Trey

TREY

I move through the city silently, gliding across the rooftops. I can sense my shield...and it seems to be crying for help. The darkness fills the sky, but the stars shine in rebellion. My armor gleams, but not enough to attract attention. The wind rustles the little decorative clothing covering my armor, and encouraging the nearby perch of Snipes to fly into the sky. Something has disturbed my shield. Something...something it remembers. I've never known this fear to be cause by anything...except...

I trip on the roof, crouching on my hands and knees. My eyes turn into their fiery gold, and I desperately try to hide them before a man on the streets sees them, but I believe he saw them before I covered...damn. I release my hands and stare back at him, and the light illuminates my smiling face before I turn and continue my journey...

Landing and grabbing the edges of the window, I look inside, my eyes soon to draw attention. Before anyone has time to react, I whip out my blade and cut the glass perfectly. I kick in the severed chunk and dive in, already meeting the blades of someone...

I'm not here to kill...

I shove him backwards with my free hand and backflip in front of a large door. An alarm sounding, my face contorts into disapproval before I hurry and punch my armored hand into the controls. Grabbing the door, it's shoved aside almost effortlessly, and I run into the room, holding out my hand. My shield flies over and I grab it, swinging around to stare at the gathered guards. "This is my property. Get your own." I laugh, and with that I jump high, and land, without a second to spare I spin and knock the shield into their heads, Stunning them. I jump again, and land at the window. "See you arou-" I stop my humor as darkness radiates from the ground, seen only by my eyes. "What-what have you..." I look at everyone, confused. "WHO GOT THIS?! YOU HAVE DAMNED US ALL!" I yell at them, and flee the building. I run as fast as I can across the cityscape to get away from it. It's darkness and evil fills my mind, as I remember black corpses scratching their fingers along the invisible wall. Black liquid dripped from any cavities in their body, and I remember...Vog I wish I didn't...I remember their screams as they realized what they were, how they clawed their faces into black rotting meat before it reverted to a liquid and forced itself into the rotting corpses as they screamed...I hated it...and I was scared of it...and now the same thing might happen. It doesn't just give you power...it gives you a new life to live as an abomination of rotting flesh that just won't die...

Waking the Dead

Deadman looked at the new person with confusion. Since he was in his Warden's armor he desided to walk over to the boy and give him a hand. "Tell me son, are you alright? Seems yo uhave had a fit of some kind out in the middle of nowhere." Reaching a hand to Tray the Warden Deadman tilts his head a little to see if he will take the offer. Even so he keeps speaking on. "YOu keep talking to people who are not their, something about a shield? Is there anything I can help you with, after all it is my job."

Take a Hand

TREY

I wipe my eyes with one arm, and take his hand. "I-I...I don't know...wait, yes." I look up, my eyes lighting his face in a golden hue. "You're one of the Darkwatch? I need to contact either the Operator or this 'Skotino', as he's called. I need to discuss something very important...and it has to do with your main mission..."

UNKNOWN

A figure writhes in the ground beneath the Darkwatch's Vault. Black tendrils, seen only by the most careful of eyes, line the walls' cracks. Whispers emanate from therein...

QUEEN

"A fire?! WHERE?!" The Queen paces back and forth, shaking her head. "Stop it before it gets out of control!" She says quickly. As the guards nod and leave the room, the Queen pulls up a decorated sleeve, revealing a chrome bracelet. "Fire the North End!"

UNKNOWN

A building collapses in the South End, black shadows seeming like they too are falling from the building. As the chunks hit the ground, the shadowy figures dissipate into the rubble...

Moving the dead

[The Vault]

The Walking guards who were walking around look to the shadows, each one(In the Skelly Suite for refrence) caring around rifles, but the most have Swords from which the very shadows them self are drawn. "You take a look at what happened, we should start moving some of this stuff. It's old and still holds good information that can be used." As the head guard spoke one of them went to each case marked 'safe' and put them on a platform were they started pushing buttons. After a moment of light, dark and purple they dissappeared to another sight. The rest of the guards walked around pointing their weapons right infront of them. Since the area was simi-underground light only came from the small windows that stuck up from the ground. The building it's self was far beyond the walls of Haven out on the planets face.

Looking around they could not find what caused the cave in. "Alright, stress must have caused it. Call in the crew they have been slacking. Also make sure Sight 51 as as well as section 37 makes note of this. Its too random to not have a reason. Did Number 0's prize get moved?"

"Yes sir it was sent just a moment ago to Higher Security as protical demands." The man on the Transporter tile said.

[Deadman]

Helping the man up Deadman nodded. "Alright brother. But I have not the idea you mean for our mission? We are simply here to give aid, that is our mission." He said as he opened up a call line to the Operator.

The sound of keys clicking was heard as the voice with no face said. "Operator."

Astran and Fenix read the shield together. "I don't like this guy," Fenix muttered. Astran nodded in agreement. "Whoever wrote this had an...interesting life." He looked up at the starry night sky. "You know son? I don't think we're cut out for this business. What do you say we go adventuring in the Clockworks?" Fenix grinned.

Astran opened one last channel to the Operator. "I'm out of this mission. I need to spend time with my son." With that, he closed the channel, and the two of them wandered off to the Arcade...

To find adventure...
Treasure...
...and mom.

(OOC: I'm taking my leave of this roleplay. I can't figure out how to effectively use Astran, and it's tripping me up. That, and I like Gwen so much better. 'Till next time!)

Betrayal

There was soon a frenzy in my Guild Hall. One of my own members was causing chaos. Flipping over beds and cracking boxes. And all sorts of other mischief. He brtrayed me. He betrayed the Order, in fact. I made him walk outside of the Hall, then slashed the crest off him with a swift blow. He was a traitor. He decided to try to stab me with his sword. After three minutes, he was lying on the floor with holes and slash-marks all over his armour.

'That is what you get for treason' I said.

'B-' the traitor said - or more like tried to say. It's hard to talk when there's a hole in your communications system.

'No buts. You betrayed me and the Order by doing that. Go back to Haven.' I commanded the traitor.

'O-wzzzzz-k-k-wzzz-ay' he said, losing temper every word. In the end, I had to give him ten more slash-marks before he finally obeyed.

'All right, this will cost quite a bit to fix. I'll see if Punch and Vise can fix any.' After I said that, I headed to Punch and Vise. I asked them to fix the damaged items, and they went 'Ok.*' Then they started to fix the Guild's items.

*It was 'Ok' according to my translator. And it should be accurate, as Vise made it for me.

Placing the ladder

[Operater]

"Roger, striking this channel from the operations list. Good luck out their." He said as he started typing as well as waiting for who ever the Second and command put on the line. Of course he was looking over the Items that just got sent from the Vault. Scratching chin the man was confused because he watch the security cams he had turned on since the cave in of that building. This would not have been such a problem if not for the fact were he was and the Vault were miles appart. So it took longer for the video to load and play. But what did catch his eye was where it was centered. After that he started sending a message to Section 37 asking for higher level of security around the item listed on his message. If they wanted Number 0's, the Founder's prized treasure they were going to have to fight the strongest the Watch had.

Promotion

I became a Defender Elite a few days ago. I was making some Azure Guardian armour when SOMETHING stepped into my Guild Hall.

Not a Knight.

Not a Gremlin.

Not a Beast.

Not a Worshipper.

But an unknown monster.

It tried to attack me, but I swiftly went behind it and hammered it's back with blasts from my Warmaster Rocket Hammer. It roared in agony(?) so I kept hammering it. Eventually it fell down and disappeared.

I observed what it left behind. A box of three thousand crowns, a Leviathan Blade (shiny!), three Ascended Caliburs (all the better for the Guild Storage!) and SEVEN eternal orbs of alchemy! I was in joy.

Then I went back to making my Azure Guardian armour. I then had enough for my shield and DTB to be upgraded as well. As I built these items, I smiled with an endless grin.

'Champion rank, I'm on my way!'

The Monster within.

[Skotino]

Having taken his leave Skotino had left the city and started to move away from the Town of Haven. "This was a waste of Time D. We need to think bigger....Yes the Dive teams have all been sent." He said as he walked aways before looking back. "Soon, D. we should make our self know yet?...No I did not think so." Looking around Skotino found a small pad. Standing on it it a small box tilted slightly came up and met him. Touching the box he started to sigh. "Alright, this is the hard part." Once he was done a small transport like bike arose and he got on, reaching behind him Skotino sighed.

"Sight 1. My office, the one thing dad did right was make a building with style...too bad its mostly underground in the clockworks..." He said as he got off his transport and went to the building. It looked as if it was in ruins, dead and empty no one in their right mind would have suspected it was one of the bases of the Watch. Going inside Skotino went to a new platform and after another moment of button pushing he was taken down to a massive area were people were being trained as well as working on war engines. Sadly the ships to let them leave the planet was still not working and they could not risk taking parts from the Skylark. Grumbling some more he walked on as he made it to his office deep down under the area. Looking around Skotino saw his fathers armor, old style Wardens armor with small amounts of purple. It was taller then most Knights, almost monstrously. But then again his family came from tall people so it was not too far off for this.

Having read the note and listioned to his fathers recordings before Skotino was well aware of everything that his father had worked on and made real. It was the creation of the Twins that got Skotino's family most noted, at least the plans for them. He was human and so was his father and mother. But it was at their hands the Blue Prints came for looking at his desk. On it were some Dragon Scales and Dark Matter. "Soon," he said as he picked up a vile of black water, "I will stand up and make this right. I will finish your work dad." He said as he looked at the water and the other materials on his desk. Picking up the Scale he picked up the Dark matter and held it next to the scale as it seemed to connect. After a moment their was a reaction and the shard disappeared only to leave him hold the Dragon Scale that was glowing dark purple and giving off a purple energy from the scale. "This will work nicely...if only I had a way to work with this...."
