However, his body felt drastically weak, and just like that, he disappeared. No sound was made as he fell into the shadows of the door again. With the speed of antelope, he was whooshed through the dark cavernous regions, completely following a different beckoning than what he was used to. It would be hours before Ryan woke up again, lying upon a dark wooden floor. Hands speed to his head, where a new gash found itself. Crying out in shock, he curled into a ball and looked around, trying to guard his body from whatever attack might still be raining upon him. But, no assailant showed themselves. Instead, there was a note, written in Ryan's own blood. "Flee him, or fail." ~ G (Just had ta get him out of there for a sec, he'll be with the main party in a bit once the next part is set up) Hee hee hee

He marvelled at how Gyser continued to be so energetic, running off the way he did so suddenly. Jason certainly lacked that kind of energy at the moment, and he leaned against a wall as he took one of the lifts down to the ground floor. He gave a yawn when he stepped out of HQ Tower and reached to remove his headset. He then thought better of it and said, "Captain?" "Yeah?" replied Ash. "Supposing they're not rebounding from our little alien friends' visit, you wanna go to The Usual Place?" Jason stifled another yawn as he awaited the fox's response. Failing an affirmative reply, the hedgehog thought to himself, there was always the comfort of the home and the wife.

"Captain?" came Jason's voice. Ash smiled. "Yeah?" "Supposing they're not rebounding from our little alien friends' visit, you wanna go to The Usual Place?" this followed by a muffled yawn. The fox thought for a few moments. It'd been a while since he'd last spent some time catching up with his friend... "Sure thing Jase. Vec should be alright now - and there're folks on their way now to patch folks up. I'll just leave the Delta here where she is in case anyone needs the med-bay, and lock the rest of it." A few minutes later, Ash came strolling down the ship's loading ramp wearing a cosy short parka jacket. He fixed his gaze on Jason with a smile. "As it happens, there were a few things I wanted to talk about anyway. Shall we walk and talk? It'll stave off the cold."

Arikyrenne shifted into her smaller (anthro) dragon form, deciding that flight would be the fastest way back to her apartment. A twinge of guilt hit her as she made her way to the exit. There was a good chance that either of her dragon forms' flames - normal or healing - could have come in handy, and could possibly even be of use now or in the future. She wanted to help as much as possible, but was it worth the risk? Was there even a risk, if she were careful enough? She knew what had happened in the past wasn't her fault, but she still wasn't certain she was ready to give the dragon forms another chance just yet, aside from casual flying in the smaller of the two transformations. When would she be certain? She had no idea, but it wasn't going to be today, not with how worn out she already was. Taking one last look to make sure everything was alright or otherwise under control, Arikyrenne leapt out of the window that Kaze's walker had smashed through only a short time before, and spread her wings. Assuming nothing else popped up, she would ride the air currents back to her room, after which she'd finally enjoy a cup of hot cocoa, and then get ready for and go to bed. Her alarm clock would be set to wake her up bright and early the following morning. Last Edited By: Arikyrenne 11/03/2008 1:24 AM. Edited 1 times.

All she cared about right now was getting back to her hotel, taking a long hot shower, and getting a good night's sleep. "You sound tired," commented Dead End. "You have no idea," she said. "So, what's up with the couch? And why does the whole city look like the Arctic?" "I'll tell you on the way back home," she said. "Want a ride?" "If you don't mind."

He then adjusted his tie and stuffed his paws into his pockets. "It's been a while, hasn't it?" Ash grinned sanguinely. Jason nodded, smiling lightly. The fox gestured for Jason to lead the way. "What do you want to talk about?" asked Jason as the two headed downtown. Ash shrugged in a casual manner. "Anything, really. We haven't spoken to each other in months. You never even return my calls. You too busy doing the--" Jason held up a paw. "Before you even ask, my defence for anything and everything is that some gentlemen simply don't kiss and tell." The tall vulpine chuckled. "Fair enough, old boy." "How's the married life with you, anyway? I trust Flair's been treating you right." "Oh yeah," Ash replied with just the proper intonation and smile on his lips to prevent Jason from inquiring further. "But now, in all seriousness, she and I are doing great. So's Cori, for that matter. Not quite as hyper, but still a bundle of energy. The lawyering been going well for you?" "Loving every minute of it. 'Phoenix Rapidfire' is still wowing 'em in the jury boxes." They continued this kind of small talk as they passed through the SPA District and the sun began to set on the far end of town. They came to a modest establishment with neon lettering reading The Usual Place. The "P" flickered on and off as they stepped inside and had a seat at the bar. After they ordered their drinks, Ash turned to Jason and said, "You know, it's good that we've been able to catch up like this. There is, however, something I've really been meaning to ask you..."

The door leading to the admins had been busted open, words exchanged, and some other stuff… it was all a blur to the weary chao. As everyone decided to head off and call it a day, she did the same, steering the Chao Walker towards the nearest broken window and hopping right out, hovering to the still half-frozen ground below. As soon as she landed, three familiar, distinct voices called out to her. "YO! KAZ!" "Kaze, chu!" "Kaze!" Before the chao knew it, a small blur suddenly appeared, running circled around the mech a few times in rapid succession before coming to a stop. The blur was a miniature Sonic the Hedgehog-modeled robot, which looked on at the chao with a broad mischievous grin. Just catching up was a human girl with blond bangs, pale blue hair, -well, she looked human enough without the chao ball floating over her head-wearing a pale blue coat with yellow cuffs at the sleeves holding a Pichu wearing blue handkerchief. "Chibi Sonic? Saya? Pikku? What are you all doing here?" "Whaddaya think? We're headin' back home," Chibi Sonic told her. "It's really cold here," Saya remarked. "It's summer, isn't it?" "It's a long story, which I will be more than happy to share later," Kaze said. "Come on, let's go. I just hope our street isn't frozen…" (OOC: Just a brief appearance of my other characters. One of them may be playing a role in this GM. Then again I may use the other one not mentioned here. If and when that does happen I've got profiles handy. I don't really have many ideas.~)

It was Alexia. =P IC: Gyser tore through the streets of Sega City, unsure where to even begin his search for Ultra... "Old hide out? ...Nah, too easy. Evil doppelganger? ...No idea where he'd even be.... Era'ck de!" He swore loudly in his home language, it's itention clear even if it's meaning wasn't. Screeching to a halt, he stared down a nearby street which would lead him to the Sailorness District. "Sailor Scouts... Sailor Scouts.... Sailor Scouts... Short Skirts.... Wait... No... Bad Gyser!" The hedgehog slapped his own hand. "Wait! Sailor Scouts... Sailor Scouts... Sailor Ultra!" And with that thought, he speed down the road towards his destination. ---------------------- Sailor Ultra opened the door of her home, to a rather stressed looking Gyser. "Gyser! What are you doing here?" She queried. "I have questions, and I'm praying that you have answers. I need to find Ultra, and I need to find him now." Gyser placed great emphasis on the last word of that sentance...

Particularly the emphasis on the 'now', and how tense he was. "Well, I've sort of been in my closet for the past few days, just exploring...I just now got out of it." Gyser couldn't help but snicker, which caused Sailor Ultra to glare. "Oh come on girl, you walked right into that one." "Well...yeah, true." Sailor Ultra sighed as she sat down on her chair. When had been the last time she had seen Ultra? For all she knew, he might have come and gone whilst she had been 'closet spelunking'...and, to be honest, her relationship with her alter-ego had been strained ever since his return. Ever since Redley had emerged. Ever since the assassin had attacked her and left her for dead. That suddenly caused a light-bulb to flicker on in her mind. "This is about Redley...isn't it?" Gyser frowned. "Who?" "Have you noticed that, sometimes, his green eyes will turn red...and he suddenly changes? Becomes more powerful...more skilled...more dangerous...?" With each word, Gyser's eyes dilated further. Bingo. "Well, if I've got any inkling about what's got you so determined to find him...it's about Redley. And that's quite a story." So Sailor Ultra spent about thirty minutes telling Gyser about Ultra...and Jonathon Redley. The same story Ultra had told her when he had begged for her forgiveness following his return. His past in the Archie Star Forum World, where he had been assassin. Trained by the Sith, becoming one of its most notorious criminals. His arrival at the Mobius Forum World, and his subsequent amnesia that allowed Ultra Sonic 007 to come into being. When events forced Ultra to face Redley. When Ultra gained his adamantium arm. When Ultra finally returned to the Mobius Forum World...and the subsequent battles between the psyches of Ultra and Redley. "And that's the basic deal Gyser..." finished Sailor Ultra as she leaned back in her chair, looking quietly at the neon-colored hedgehog. "I've sort of been out of the loop since then. We haven't spoken much, not since he begged for my forgiveness for what Redley had done...so I wouldn't know much about where he is at the moment." Come to think of it, I've been out of the loop about current events since going into my closet. "So...what's been happening? I've been kinda preoccupied as of late. I mean, what's got you look for Ultra-slash-Redley?" And finally...the present.

"Ok, so that at least explains the **** part of Ultra... But still, he has to be stopped..." The hedgehog thought to himself. "So...what's been happening? I've been kinda preoccupied as of late. I mean, what's got you looking for Ultra-slash-Redley?" Sailor Ultra asked, snapping Gyser out of this thoughts. Gyser too had a story to tell, but he tried to make it quick so he could resume his search for Ultra. He told Sailor Ultra of an expedition to Segan Ruins which both he and Ultra were a part of. He told her of how Ultra had betrayed the group, and left them to die by siding with Georgia Stahlmansche, mega-*** extraordinaire. He continued, explaining about the Frizonian attack on the city. He then explained how only hours before hand, Ultra had thrown him into a building and abandoned the group, when every man was needed. "I don't trust him, he doesn't deserve to be trusted, he has to be stopped, I'll be the one to do it and I'm a prick for holding grudges. Please, you have to have some idea where he might be!"

Well. That'll do it. And an alien invasion?! Why couldn't it have happened WHILE she was outside of her closet? "Ugh..." "I don't trust him, he doesn't deserve to be trusted, he has to be stopped, I'll be the one to do it and I'm a prick for holding grudges. Please, you have to have some idea where he might be!" The Sailorness Scout frowned, thinking hard about what could be done. I don't know how Redley's mind works...how would I know...? Who would know? Only Ultra and Redley would, in all honesty...she couldn't think of anyone else in a similar situation. Redley. Redley. ...hold up. "I remember..." Sailor Ultra frowned as the thoughts began to click and synapse. "When Ultra returned, the battle between him and Ultra Shadow occurred because the mind of Redley had been siphoned out of Ultra Sonic and into Ultra Shadow...but the assassin's psyche still managed to claw its way through Ultra's ego. It somehow remained." THAT sentence put Gyser on edge...precisely because of what it entailed. "Two Redleys?" "I'd wager." "Great." Just the lovely kind of thought I DON'T need. "I wouldn't be aware of where Ultra might have gone...but his evil clone might." She quickly ran into her closet. Gyser blinked at the sight of the Hammerspace Closet, marvelling at the expanse within. Wow. No wonder she was in the closet for so long...heh. It was minutes later that the Sailorness Scout emerged, her gloved hands holding a type of handheld device with a...pig snout attached to it. "A Pork Radar." "...a WHAT radar?" "Built by the FPA a long time ago during its heyday, designed for the purpose of tracking down Ultra Shadow's Piggy Armada!" An infomercial about it had been on some years ago. Then the Box of Randomness had done its duty...and voila! "Look for the largest concentration of pork in the forum...that should lead you to him." Gyser looked at the odd device in his hand, marvelling at how...'goofy' the situation was becoming. Now I'm about hunt down the evil clone of the guy whose ass I'm going to kick...this evil clone happening to be a serial invader whose tried to take over the MoFo with an army of pigs. Sure, he could dig that. Sounded a lot more pleasant than the Frizonians, at nay rate. Even with the possibility of facing ANOTHER Redley. "Hmm..." There were red blotches clustered about in a particular subarea. "Looks like I'm off to the RP Guild." "Gyser." The neon hedgehog looked up, frowning at Sailor Ultra's suddenly apprehensive look. "What?" The violet-haired girl was suddenly frowning. She didn't know if this was tactful or not...but even some hints as to Ultra's past could prove useful in grounding him, in keeping Redley at bay. "Do you ever know what happened to Ultra's wife....Sailor Pandemonium? And their children, Saffron and...Alexia? Please...I'd like to know."

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	OOC: Certainly not to discourage character development and sidetracking, but I need to know if Gyser will end up going to the briefing or not. Right now it looks like not, but I want to check before I go ahead with the "morning after" briefing - which will set the stage for the second chapter of this story. Ultra himself is too far away to be feasibly back in time for the briefing since he's already at the Mobile Glacier. It might make things more interesting if not all of the characters are at the briefing, leading to confusion and misperceptions that could make the story more interesting and developed, so I guess it's ultimately up to you. I'm going to finish writing up the briefing portion, as well as provide for an explanation from one of the resident experts of time/space (owned by another player), and then the group will be equipped and sent off toward the Mobile Glacier. It should be posted up sometime in the next week. In the meantime, anyone who hasn't gotten their character(s) settled down for the night or finished their conversations yet can do so. Life and Story go on. To the reader, I'll see you later. Website for information on the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints www.mormon.org

The way those words were said gave the red hedgehog a slightly uncomfortable feeling. "What about her?" he replied, slightly suspiciously. "When did you last hear from her, Jase?" "Well... that would've been just a few days ago, right before she left to help out with an Administration project." "Do you know anything about the project she's involved in?" "Not much." Jason frowned a bit. "Is she likely to be in some sort of danger, Captain? Your cagey-ness is making me edgy." "There's... a possibility she might be. I don't know one way or the other yet. But recent events have me a little nervous about the wellbeing of herself and the others with her. That said, it could just be a problem with communications systems..." he sighed. "I know it's a bit glib of me to say this after saying that, but try not to think about it too much, OK? If something has happened, we'll know about it." Jason nodded slowly. "Right... Well, that will be easier said than done. But I'll try."

His friend looked at him sympathetically. "Jase, Modesty's a tough lass. You know that. She's probably right now wishing she could be home with you." Jason shifted on his seat and sipped his drink. "Sometimes, I wonder about that intense sense of duty she's got. I wish I could talk her into retirement, but she'd get so restless she'd probably start cooking." A mental image of a mushroom cloud over Sega City formed in Ash's mind. "Yeah...that wouldn't be a bright idea." The two smiled and relaxed for a time, basking in the low-key atmosphere of the bar and the smooth jazz playing in the background, all of which contrasted vividly against the intensity of the day's events. To the tinkling of a piano, they reminisced happily about bygone days and the adventures, and misadventures, they had shared. Eventually, their conversation turned to the present. "So, we're in for it tomorrow, aren't we?" Ash posed rhetorically. "A big Mobile Glacier is what Vec called it. You going to be there?" "I think I owe it to the Frizonians. Punishing thugs like them is part of a prosecutor's duties." "Well now, who's the one with the intense sense of duty?" Jason chuckled before throwing some rings down at the bartender. "I guess maybe that attitude of hers is contagious. If I'm going to be ready for them, I may as well get some sleep." "Ah, right. Want me to bring you back to your place?" "You men and your one-track mind. Heh, no thanks. I'll be fine. We ought to do this again, only with the wives, Captain." Jason slipped off the bar stool and casually headed for the door, calling, "Catch you tomorrow." "Later, man."

Died a few years ago... Because... Someone was trying to kill me instead..." Gyser words hung heavy and full of regret. One hand clenched tightly into a fist as painful memories came flooding back to the surface. Lifting his head back up, he let a small sight escape his lips. "Saffron and Alexia are fine. They are living with their uncle Gya somewhere outside of Sega City. I'm not sure where though.... Heh. They've both grown up to be such amazing kids." The hedgehog couldn't help but grin when he thought about the three of them fighting side by side. "Strong and with a sense of what's right... Just like their parents..." Turning his head so he could look Sailor Ultra in the eyes, Gyser continued, "I like Ultra, I really do... But if this Redley guy is still there, that's a problem we've gotta solve." Flipping the Pork Radar in his hand, Gyser grinned the grin of a mad-man. "And solvin' issues like that is a speciality of mine." And with a wink and a green blur, the hedgehog was gone.

Posts: 15317 (11/10/2008 3:34 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	Sailor Ultra blinked as Gyser burst off, heading off to face Ultra Shadow 007 (catching a glimpse of the frozen, yet thawing expanse of SEGA City beyond). "..." In all honesty, she was feeling a bit...confused. With a side of sobering sadness. So...his wife died a few years ago... Right around the time Ultra had left for the Archie Star Forum World...before or after? Most likely after; despite the warnings of the ASFW's Admin Macbeth, she doubted Ultra would have left with him if it had meant that his children would have been without a parent. And given what little he had heard about Ultra's children, the son (Saffron) had been a somewhat modest yet adventurous blue hedgehog, who had inherited the abilities of Sailor Pandemonium (what those abilities were, she wasn't sure). The daughter (Alexia), had been a little blue-haired girl exhibiting sides of snarky sarcasm and a side of cautious risk-taking (if that made any sense), who had inherited the super-speed of her father Ultra. I wonder... She should meet those children. If what Gyser said had been true regarding the invasion... I won't let anything happen to them. There was no doubt that Ultra would have tried to check up on his wife and children after returning home...yet as far as she knew, Ultra hadn't made one effort to try and see his children again. Why? It had to be because of Redley...it had to. That damn assassin... Feeling a bit of righteous anger, Sailor Ultra made a decision to pursue Gyser. If nothing else, to ask Gyser where this 'Gya' fellow lived (was he referring to...what was his name, Gya Le?), and to meet up with the children. It was long overdue anyway. With that said, she quickly went back into the closet. Minutes later, she came back out of the closet. "That joke's run its course!" (Sorry.) Clad in a large, brown parka, the Sailorness Scout quickly walked outside - Boxing Glove Staff and another Pork Radar in hand - and pulled out a little Dinocap. With a click of a button and a toss... PSSSH!!! ...out emerged a small white hovercraft with blue lining, capable of seating five. The curved windshield already began to frost over as Sailor Ultra turned the engine on and zoomed off towards the RP Guild. xxxx Still nighttime. Gyser's breath frosted over as he calmly came to a stop at the RP Guild. The various domes - all bearing some measure of frost - remained standing, having been further away from the epicenter of the icesteroid crater (thus having been spared of much of the fighting). If there had been any people frozen here, they were gone by now. Save for Ultra Shadow, apparently. Gyser stood quietly outside the RP Guild Lobby, the enclosed complex where forumers waited for a dome to open up. Though it too bore some icicles, the doors had been opened (judging by the frost that had been cleared away). "Well...here goes nothing." He opened the door. "BUI!!!" "SHUT THE DAMN DOOR, IT'S COLD OUT THERE!!!" Gyser immediately shut it behind him, briefly boggling at what he saw. Pigs. Hundreds of them. The pork calmly waddled about, taking full advantage of vending machines to stuff their faces. Several of the more autonomous pigs had managed to get the Food Court up and running (which was saying something, given that they had HOOVES). The lights were dimmed (a sign of low power output from the generators?), and the overall atmosphere was dark, cramped, and noisy. It was a never-ending sea of swine. It was surprisingly clean, given the sheer number of pigs. But Gyser's attention turned towards the black hedgehog sitting...atop the back of a giant, cyborg pig. ...okay. The pig's cybernetic eyes glowed red as Ultra Shadow gauged the newcomer. His eyes were hidden behind shades; unlike Ultra Sonic, he still clung fast to the '007' wardrobe. "Well well well...Gyser, if I recall correctly. What brings you here?" "I could ask you the same question," remarked Gyser. Despite his questions regarding Redley - odd how different a vibe this guy gave off compared to Ultra Sonic - he wanted to know WHY an Evil Forumer had set up shop in a public establishment. "Not exactly the most conspicuous place for your...'Piggy Armada'." Ultra Shadow shrugged, tearing into a chicken sandwich. "Just got back in town. Noted that it was frozen too, and decided to hide away in here until things warm up." "...frozen 'too'?" Gyser recalled how Ultra Sonic had mentioned 'other icesteroids' after the destruction of the other one. "Did you see another icesteroid outside SEGA City?" Ultra Shadow smirked. "Yep. Managed to take care of it too. NOTHING IS BEYOND THE PIGGY ARMADA!!!" Two childish voices rang out. "You only got to do it because it landed near an active volcano." "And you lost over half of your armada just pushing it there!" Ultra Shadow sweatdropped as two kids walked towards the cyborg pig. "You two brats are certainly pressing your luck." Gyser would've said something...had his eyes not widened immediately, had his voice not died. Holding a tray full of pepperoni pizza was a 4'0" hedgehog, bearing a body of blue fur clad in a long-sleeved red shirt and black sweatpants. Gray sneakers with white shoelaces adorned his feet, and his hands bore no gloves...obviously due to the myriad of tentacles emerging from the wrists, holding his tray for him. A shade of soft red coated his irises, a somewhat kind color...eyes that mirrored his mother's. Holding a plate of teriyaki cuisine was a blue-haired 4'0" girl, almost a mini-version of Pande. A gray bodysuit clad her form - from the neck down to the wrists and ankles - with a blue knee-length skirt and a blue denim jacket. Given her super speed, it was no surprise that she wore classic red-and-white speed shoes...and her green eyes were a spot-on mirror of her father's, carrying both a sense of light-heartedness but a stern determination when times got tough. Saffron and Alexia. "Uncle Gyser!" exclaimed Saffron. "Hi!" "What...are...what are you two DOING here?!" exclaimed the flourescent hedgehog. "Remember the icesteroid?" reminded Ultra Shadow as he slid down the side of the massive cyborg pig (a NATURAL KILLER CYBORG! :O ). "That Gya fellow was frozen by the time I got there. And since he was going to be out of commission for a while, I dropped his frozen body at a nearby hospital and invited my dear nephew and niece to stay with me for the time being!" His tone was syrupy sweet. Mockingly so. Alexia sardonically stated, "You actually came by to kidnap us and hold us for ransom." Saffron added, "It's why you brought the Piggy Armada." "And I freely admitted it!" exclaimed the Evil Forumer as he patted the heads of the shorter-by-a-foot children. "Besides, given the situation, I figured it'd be a good time to do some bonding with Uncle Shadsie..." Ultra Shadow lowered his shades just a hint, showcasing red eyes. "Don't you agree?" The sight of red eyes propelled Gyser forward with a punch. A punch that was caught by one hand. "Hey now." The five-foot-tall hedgehog stared quietly at his more brightly-colored counterpart, his red eyes taking on a quiet quality. It was also how Gyser noticed...that the right eye was just a shade darker than the left. It was a blood red, as compared to the lighter, more 'maniacal' red of the other. "What's this now?" Gyser bit his tongue. He needed answers. "I need to talk about...a certain assassin." Ultra Shadow's lips curved into a wicked smirk. "I see...kids, your uncles need to talk. Why don't you scoot along and eat?" Alexia frowned. "I want to hear." Saffron sighed as he extended several tentacles, wrapping them around his sister's waist. "Let's just go Alexia." "HEY! L'EGGO!" The two children - not even at the age of 10 yet - walked away, bickering all the while until they left the Food Court. Now it was just Gyser and Ultra Shadow. And a bunch of pigs. "Why'd you want them to leave?" Ultra Shadow chuckled. "For one thing, they don't even know that their dad's back in the MoFo. They still think he's outside the Mobius Forum World, just like he said so in that note to his wife." Gyser frowned, recalling how upset Pandemonium had been over Ultra's sudden disappearance. The destruction of the FPA had been one thing...the cryptic note that had just said 'There's something I have to see to outside the Mobius Forum. I will return one day. Love, Ultra' had merely been icing on the cake. Given how Ultra was...it was unlike him to just not SEE his children again. "...why?" "Would YOU want to bring home an assassin's alter-ego that can take over at any time to your children?" "...good point." "So. Tell me why you want to talk about Jonathon Redley."

What he'd witnessed here today so far was one hell of an intense scenario - it was a bleakly cold time to be in Sega City, he thought grimly, noting that more and more forces of some bitter evil were determined to make their pleasent place a living hell. He lit up a small cigar, and sighed - deep in a train of thought... He had to stay in the front lines - there was no choice about it. He wasn't necessarily a full time resident, sure, but damn it the place was still his second home...it was good here, and he damn well wasn't going to let some 2-bit punks from the planet Freezeatron or where-the-heck-ever it was just stomp all over it as though it were some 'Welcome' mat. Taking a deep drag from the cigar, he savoured the taste of the smoke before blowing it out sharply in a hard exhale...it had been too long, he thought to himself with a smirk. Climbing behind the wheel of the Jeep, he started the engine up - and took it to quickly make a small stop at an undisclosed MIA location - it was time to grab some more supplies for the long day that still lay ahead... {{ He'll make it back - I just figured he needed a little extra something to be doing in the meantime. :P I'll figure/detail his supplies/Inventory when we resume }} Mobius Springheart: Live Life on the wing Mobius Forum's Ace Legal Eagle in training!

"Do I really have to explain this again?" The hedgehog asked himself. Yanking his hand free from Ultra Shadows grip, Gyser accepted his fate, and explained about the trip to the Segan ruins and Ultras betrayal of the group, and about what had happened earlier that day. "I guess what started as a grudge has evolved into something a little more serious. Part payback, part protecting everyone else" Gyser grinned. He knew there was a part of this Redley in there as well, and honestly, was hoping to beat it out of Ultra Shadow. But not yet. For starters, the full Redley was in Ultra Sonic, not his counterpart. That was his main priority. Oh, and stopping the Frizonians was ranking in there somewhere too. "So... I've answered your question, now you answer mine, and it's a pretty simple one... What more do you know about Redley?"

"Well well...he's been quite busy." An invasion. Some good old-fashioned backstabbing... "...What more do you know about Redley?" The black-and-red tuxedo-clad hedgehog glanced at his brighter counterpart, quirking an eyebrow as he lowered his shades. "Tell me, what do you see in these eyes of mine?" Gyser looked. Compared the darker shade of bloody red with the more stereotypical 'evil' red. "They differ in color." Ultra Shadow grinned. A very toothy grin. "Good eyes...you see, although I share many aspects with my 'original self'...he does tend to do things the hard way." The Evil Forumer stood up, flexing his fingers while he spoke. "You see, when Redley's mind was transferred into me...he wasted no time making himself at home. Despite what you may think, that mind-transfer doohickey that Vector used to do the job...it was very precise. There should've been no way for the assassin to remain an Ultra Sonic's psyche..." He turned back towards Gyser. "Of course, you've probably sent plenty enough to disagree, hm?" Gyser rolled his eyes. Come on, get to the bloody point... "But then again, for one who is a native of a world where a psionic Force permeates all, perhaps it's not too surprising...where even things of the mind can bind to that which is physical..." Ultra Shadow chuckled. "Ultra Sonic may have made a deal with a Redley...bartered with him, treated him as an equal...but given how he is now, he most likely saw him as a colony would see its far more powerful mother country...he defers to him, yet feels that he can afford to act snippy. As for me?" Ultra Shadow turned towards Gyser. "Redley is a tool...yet he is a partner...yet he is a superior. I've done more than accept his presence in my world...I've embraced him and all that he has to offer." Gyser blinked. Part of him wondered if this was about to get really really ugly. "It's one of the strange quirks about where Redley hails from; one who embraces all aspects of themselves - good and bad - is one who can truly master themselves. Redley has mastered himself...but Ultra has not. I have. And with that in mind...I have a pretty good idea of where Redley would go." Gyser's eyes narrowed. Finally, what he had come here for. "Spill it." "Jonathon Redley is not just an assassin. He has a way about him concerning challenges; his entire existence is hinged on the fact that he is the best at what he does. Which is why he only does anything for money...or for sport. The weird thing is the total lack of bloodlust, but you kind of get used to it..." Ultra Shadow calmly grabbed a soda perched atop the head of a piggy wearing a monocle and a butler's outfit. "Ah, thank you Reginald." Gyser sweatdropped. "Anyhow...given this 'Frizonian invasion'...I'd wager that he's gone to where the head honchoes are. He will test himself against their best. Should he fall, he will either die or accept his defeat and strive to become stronger without complaint. Should he be victorious...well, judging by what he said before taking off, he'll be expecting a hefty payment." The flourescent hedgehog scowled...but now he had some clue about where Redley was. Going after the biggest prize of them all, hm? Well, it seemed that he had little to do now until tomorrow's debriefing; there was no doubt that there, he'd be able to determine where the main Frizonian force was located...once he knew that, he'd know where Redley was. "I see." Now there was only the question of defeating him. "And given Ultra's current wussification regarding his situation with Redley, I have JUST the solution of getting his goody-two-shoes butt in gear!" With a sip of his coke, Ultra Shadow walked toward the doors of the Food Court and swung them open, where Saffron and Alexia were eating patiently. "Hey kids!" Alexia sighed; her 'Evil Uncle's' antics were quite infuriating at times. "What is it?" "Remember your dear old dad?" Saffron and Alexia frowned; it was a sore subject for them for a number of reasons; for one, there father was still missing...two, he hadn't been there when their mother had died...and three, they really had no idea of WHERE he had gone. Saffron had been mostly sad, but Alexia bore a little bitterness over it all. "Turns out that he's back...and under the control of the psyche of an assassin from another forum world!" Cue widening of the eyes by both children. Ultra Shadow grinned. "And since I'm always one for getting people to owe me favors, what say we save his hide?" Gyser performed a facepalm. No subtlety...whatsoever...
