Kallen nodded, "I wonder what they plan to do? I mean we're quite capable on our own to elimanate the base where I was... and that's where the General is." Akima stood behind them quiet and reserved, he wanted to make an impression on the rebels, but he smiled at Kallen's comment because he knew quite well that it was true. With Himself, Kallen, Yaming, Lora, Destined, and the others they could take down that base in less than an hour.

 

Todou stood next to Yaming with a long old coat on, underneath it he had 12 weapons, three Stunshot Handguns, four Chaos Flares, a Slash Harken on each arm, an Energy Repulsor attached to each leg, and his knew weapon attached to his back. He was ready for virtually anything, except anyone with powers. He knew that if any of these rebels had powers the only thing he had that would be effective was his new weapon.

 

Natalie was still trying to talk to Desitined so she walked ahead of him, but close enough that she could see him out of the corner of her eye. She was more worried about the fact that this time Cougar was up and nearby. She hoped that he wouldn'tt interfere, she'd had a talk with him and he'd promised to watch, but from far enough away that he wouldn't hear anything. She pulled back a bit and whispered to Destined, "Can I talk to you please?"

 

Aya was walking behind Kallen and Lora with Catherine a bit behind her. Aya kept thinking back to when Lora had startled her, *I like Lora, but I can't tell her the truth... she'll hate me if I tell her that I'm from the Western Military Base! And Catherine will be furious. Although she got a disk from Mr. Todou earlier, and she won't tell me what it's for...............I have to tell Lora!*

 

Catherine was still suspicious, she hadn't seen that man who'd taken her phone since the incident and now she had the disk from Todou... and no way to contact the General! *Dammit, it looks like I'm going to have to borrow Aya's phone to call him, and that will make her curious.*

Black saw his opportunity. He walked outside for "Air". He made White reappear and told him the deal with Catherine, and to wait for a few minutes before coming in. He went back inside. 6 minutes later, White walked in, warped up to Catherine, leaving a note on her shoulder, and warped back to the exit. He walked out. The note read:

 

"Tell no one that I am here. I need to speak with you on Urgent matters - The General"

Catherine was listening to his mind while talking to him and realized that his mind was a lot like another that she'd heard, "Well that's none of your business, but do you mind telling me why your mind is so like that man Black's and why you're mind is echoing? All your thoughts are repeating themselves." She smiled and looked at him with a dark smile, "How about this you think about answering my question and meet me later tonight. And I go back inside and listen to the meeting. Catherine turned around and without a second looke walked back inside, *I have him now, whoever that is he doesn't have a mind of his own... his mind is like an echo, an echo of Black's. Maybe I should talk to him about White.*

The door opened and inside was a huge underground compound with resistance members, looking all over the place and working diligently on future projects. After the door hit the wall thirty gun clicks could be heard and all of them were aiming for the group that had just entered.

 

"Put yer guns done ya' stupid pricks!" Alamos commanded as he stepped out of a back room that appeared to be exclusively for battle strategies, "Welcome, welcome!" Alamos said, walking up to the group. Koya floated down the stairs and landed in front of Alamos, with Zamochi following besides his brother as they both stopped infront of the man. Koya shook Alamos' hand, "Did we make it in time?"

 

With a smile and nod Alamos confirmed that they had indeed made it in time. Alamos told everyone to feel free to walk about and make themselves at home, a big mistake for some of the members of this traveling party, and that he would call on them later for official introductions and other boring stuff. He placed his hand on Koya's should and both walked back into the strategy room to discuss what they knew and "swap notes".

 

Having the leader's orders most of the group split off in every direction, including up, as they explored the massive underground compound. While most ran off to explore Destined remained around the front of the compound, his hat covering his red eyes. He knew nine out of ten greetings he made usually ended in someone dying, so he kept his mouth shut and kept to himself. Black and Sky did just like his boss and stayed near the front section; Black was still planning his move with Catherine, but didn't want to show his hand just yet. Beside Black and Sky, the final two member's of Destined's group [Kyba and Darren] stuck next to their boss as well; Darren couldn't help look like a kid at his first amusement park.

 

Darren wasn't the only one as Yaming looked around with curiosity at everything and everyone, which was very disturbing to some of the resistance members. Josh started tapping his foot, getting more annoyed by the second, and finally looked at her"Just go already . . ."

 

With a squeel of excitment Yaming hugged and gave Josh a kiss on the cheeck before running off to see all of the oddities this place had to offer. Smirking Josh decided to join Koya and Alamos in the strategy room. Exploring around Yaming ran into Lora and Kallen as they walked leisurly through the hallways. Lora was looking at all of the husseling and commotion with a smile, "This is amazing isn't it Kallen!?"

 

"I wonder what they plan to do? I mean we're quite capable on our own to elimanate the base where I was . . . and that's where the General is." Kallen said with a nod. Akima followed behind the two young girls quietly, he wanted to make an impression on the rebels, but he smiled at Kallen's comment because he knew quite well that it was true. "With myself . . . Kallen, Yaming, Lora, Destined, and the others we could take down that base in less than an hour." he thought with confidence. But as everyone would learn . . . the General is more crafty than any of them suspected . . .

 

"Damn It! How could I have gotten my phone stolen!? It looks like I'm going to have to borrow Aya's phone to call him . . . and that will make her curious." Catherine was still suspicious, she hadn't seen that man who'd taken her phone since the incident. She slipped through the hallways with a tiny discet in her palm, which she gently squeezed shut, at least she had the disk from Todou . . . and no way to contact the General about it!!! She was virtually driving herself mad with fustration. Now submerged in her own fustration Catherine never noticed that she had walked in a complete circle and passed Destined and the rest without hidding herself. Black saw his opportunity . . .

 

Walking outside for some "air" he took out his book and made White reappear. Giving White his orders to 'deal with Catherine' and sent him on his way; Black then waited a few minutes before coming in.

 

With Black outside White entered the compound without being detected, "Lousy radars they have here", and warped next to Catherine. Handing her a note he merely smiled and vanished before her suprise widened eyes. Reading the note it simply stated:

Tell no one that I am here. I need to speak with you about urgent matter- Foremost The General

Crumbeling the note in her fist Catherine's fustration became annoyance. She could sense his mind outside so she decided to play this man's "game" . . . for now. Without being seen she snuck out and once outside she saw him, "Who are you and what do you want from me?"

 

With Black preoccupied with his plan . . . err . . . Destined's for Catherine he had left for some place more quiet; so he could concentrate better. Kyba had followed Darren as he wandered off to explore like a small child, much to their boss' disappointment. Now with Destined alone, as Sky had went off on his own earlier, Natalie felt she could finally muster the courage to speak to him again. It wasn't that she was afraid of Destined himself, but she was more worried about the fact that this time Cougar was up and nearby. She hoped that he wouldn't interfere . . . she'd have a talk with him and he'd promised to watch, but from far enough away that he wouldn't hear anything. She finally stood in front of Destined and whispered, "Can I talk to you please?"

 

Destined has been confronted by an unforeseen enemy- the innocent questions of a little girl!? What will his response be and can this cold hearted man actually withstand the puppy dog eyes!? We shall see . . . yes we shall. But while we wait- oh look! Todou's caught up with Yaming! Standing next to her, Todou kept close as she looked at a few things and then questioned the nearest Resistance Members. Todou, covered in a long old coat with 12 weapons [spoiler=Weapons]three Stunshot Handguns, four Chaos Flares, a Slash Harken on each arm, an Energy Repulsor attached to each leg, and his knew weapon attached to his back

inside it, watched and smiled as the Resistance Member tried to explain what the random object did to Yaming. Althought he felt at peace next to such friend he felt he needed to be ready for virtually anything; yet he still was unable to defend against anyone with powers. He knew that if any of these rebels had powers the only thing he had that would be effective was his new weapon . . .

 

"My name is . . . is . . . my name is John," White said, "I'm John White. I . . . I don't know how to say this . . . but . . . I am a secret admirer of yours . . ." John White turned red as he glanced down, one thing was for sure- he was giving a good preformance.

 

"I-I've been watching from afar. A-An-And I would like to know something . . .Why are you working with that evil Western General!?" White tried to act innocent, but underneath his faux expression his eyes gleamed like a tiger watching a wounded prey. Catherine merely listened, but not to his words as John White expected her too. No . . . instead Catherine had been, all this time, reading his thoughts and had come to realize that his mind was a lot like anothers that she'd heard in recent times. Hearing his questions she pushed some hair out of her face and scowled, "Well that's none of your business! But do you mind telling me why your mind is so much like Black's!? And why you're mind is echoing? All your thoughts are repeating themselves."

 

Catherine could only smile and look at him like a cat playing with an injured mouse- she had him, "How about this . . . you think about answering my question and meet me later tonight. And I go back inside and listen to the meeting they're having," Catherine turned around and without a second look walked back inside, "I have him now . . . who ever that is he doesn't have a mind of his own. His mind is like an echo- an echo of Black's! Maybe I should talk to him about White?"

 

With Catherine walking back inside Omar spotted white and gave a grin, he had been eavesdropping- though missing out on key details. "Bummer . . . she must've let the guy down."

 

With the confrontation with Black looming over her Catherine had completely forgotten about Aya; who was sitting in a seat all by her lonesome. She doodled in her notebook as she gave a long and loud sigh- weither it be of boredome or something else is unknown. Aya would find her thoughts traveling back to when Lora had startled her, "I like Lora, but I can't tell her the truth . . . she'll hate me if I tell her that I'm from the Western Military! A-And Catherine will be furious!" another long sigh and Aya could see her doodles were of Lora and herself playing a game with each other. She shook her head and scribbled over the image and looked up, "Although Catherine did get a disk from Mr. Todou earlier and she won't tell me what its for . . . I have to tell Lora!"

 

Aya stood up, closed her notebook, and set out to find her [she hoped] new friend.

Focusing on his ideas for the plan Akima walked off into the strategy room where Alamos and Koya had gone. He walked up and stood next to them to listen to their plan and perhaps add some of his ideas.

 

Kallen watched as Akima went into the room following Alamos and Koya. She looked around the room only to see two things: One many of the rebels were looking at her arm with a curious look on their faces; and two that Aya was sitting all alone in a chair up against the far wall. Kallen turned back to Lora and pointed to Aya, "Hey Lora why don't you go see what Aya's doing? I have to go talk with Alamos and Koya about what we're planning to do." With that Kallen walked off toward the room where Alamos, Koya, and Akima had disappeared.

 

Natalie stood there in front of Destined waiting for a response and noticed that Cougar was standing off in a corner watching them and completely ignoring everything around him. It was obvious to her that it was taking all of Cougar's self control to keep his promise, so she decided not to push it, "Well Destined? Can I talk to you privately?" She stood and waited for an answer.

 

As Yaming ran around Todou made sure to keep close to her. He had decided that because of all that she had done for him that he would do his best to protect Yaming. He pulled out of his jacket a pair of "sunglasses". They allowed him to see all around him so he was able to look after Yaming and watch everything going on around him. He put his hand on Yaming's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "I think we should go and focus on the plan."

 

Aya was writing another story, but this time it wasn't a story it was a journal entry about everything that had happened to her since she'd left the Western Military Base. About how she met Lora and Kallen and the others. She whispered to herself, "How can I tell Lora the truth?"

Yaming heard Todou say they should focus on the plan- aka go to the meeting. She gave a loud sigh, showing she didn't want to attend, but nodded her head. Walking into the room they saw Josh had fallen asleep while Alamos, Akima and Koya attempted to focus on a strategm. Looking up Koya's disemal face lite up and he gave a smile, "Just the person we were going to go get- Todou," he motioned for the chair in the middle and then he motioned to another, "And lets not forget Yaming."

 

Hearing Kallen say she was going to the meeting Lora nodded, a bit downhearted though, as she didn't have any interest in going to some boring meeting. Instead she took Kallen's advice and walked over to Aya, who as usual was engrossed in her book, and sat down. "Hey . . ."

Even with everyone still sticking in with the Resistance Base and everyone fitting. There seems to be a really weird oddity that fallows a Mad Man and his 7 foot of a Monstrosity, Lee.But nevertheless they did not let it bother them. Eden as judge mental as he is found this place interesting, and for once while scouring the wastelands he meet people that did not try to kill him or worst scrap Lee. But even as Eden was trusting, Lee was not as much. Being as serious as he is, his expression and his height make anyone really fear him. But besides Edens well ignorance Lee stood watchful. He figured that something was going to happen. "Eden, do you think it is safe here?" Lee spoke in a mechanical voice more then usual now since his replacement. "Of course it is what could go wrong we have about a thousand or more fully armed men. And I mean who here is going to mess around with you?" Lee just looked at Eden as he started to walk around the Base. "Thats not what I mean." Eden paused for a moment "Then what do you mean?" Eden looked up at the huge figure that is Lee. "I don't know." Eden sighed and shock his head. "Next week you head is getting a check up. come on..." And with that the two continued walking

Yaming smiled and thought Josh had woken up, "So you finally woke up?"

 

Yaming moved over a seat and patted him on the shoulder, and then lead her on his shoulder. While Yaming talked to Josh the rest continued to talk about the invasion of the Western Military Base. Lt Tyler and Todou have been telling all of the statistics of the base, while Koya and Alamos thought about ways to evade or remove the obsticales.

 

"This is more difficult than I thought," Koya said shaking his head, "And this isn't even the main base!"

Natalie walked off following Destined into a corner, she could feel Cougar glaring at them. She felt bad for making him promise to not get involved, but she knew that it was the only way that she would be able to talk to Destined without any interference. "I wanted to tell you and Lucifer that I forgive you." Natalie looked looked at Destined and Lucifer waiting for a response.

 

At Lora's greeting Aya was startled again, "Whaaaa! Oh hi Lora... Um I was just going to look for you." Aya looked down not able to meet Lora's eyes. Then after a moment she looked up, "I need to tell you something, but I want you to promise me you won't tell anyone, please?" Aya looked at Lora with pleading eyes, but the truth was that Aya planned to tell Lora even if she didn't promise.

 

Todou looked at Koya, confused, "Me? Why were you going to look for me?" Todou took the seat and continued, "I mean, I don't know what I can do for you, but of I can help I'll try."

 

Akima and Kallen stood side-by-side and Akima filled her in as she'd just walked in before Todou and Yaming did. Then they stood and waited to listen to Koya.

 

Meanwhile Catherine was sitting alone in a corner with a laptop sitting in her lap. She was going over the disk that she'd gotten from Todou and realized that it didn't contain the data for the upgrade, *Damn! I guess this will have to do, along with the blood samples I got from those two naïve girls; Kallen, Natalie.* She she stopped for a moment only to notice that Black's mind wasn't far off.

Alamos examined his maps of the base and made some red "X" marks on them. "Here's how I see it..." He began as he pointed at the first X. "There are four main points of entry; The Caverns, The Sewers, The Main Gate, and The West Gate. The Sewers and The Caverns are probably our best bet right now as they are the least guarded access points." Alamos explained.

"Whaaaa! Oh hi Lora . . . um . . . I was just going to look for you," Aya looked down not able to meet Lora's eyes. Then after a moment she looked up, "I need to tell you something, but I want you to promise me you won't tell anyone, please?"

 

Aya looked at Lora with pleading eyes, but the truth was that Aya planned to tell Lora even if she didn't promise. Lora gave a grin and nodded her head, Lora felt like she was becoming close friends with Aya and liked the idea that Aya trusted her enough to spill such an important secret that she needed to promise not to tell, "Ok, sure . . ."

 

Todou looked at Koya, confused, "Me? Why were you going to look for me?" Todou took the seat and continued, "I mean, I don't know what I can do for you, but of I can help I'll try."

 

Koya only gave a smile and explained that only Lt Tyler and Todou himself have any knowledge of the security within the Western Military Base. Becaise of this its essential that they participate in the strategy meeting. Everyone was know present, and awake, so they continued the meeting . . .

 

With the details explained Alamos examined the maps of the base, marked with some red "Xs" on them, and grimmaced at the possabilities. "Here's how I see it," he said as he pointed at the first X. "There are four main points of entry; The Caverns, The Sewers, The Main Gate, and The West Gate. The Sewers and The Caverns are probably our best bet right now as they are the least guarded access points . . ."

 

"Possibly. What do you think Todou?" Akima said as he looked at the map.

"Possibly. What do you think Todou?" Akima said as he looked at the map.

 

Todou shook his head, "If I know the General, and I do, he'll have all sorts of traps and such in the sewers and caverns, the kind you'd need speed like Cougar to avoid. No our best bet is to have the main force split into two. Have one go straight through the front entrance and have the other go around to the west side gate." Todou continued to look at the map and make marks on it. " We should have Kallen, and Koya lead our group in the attack here at the main gate and have Alamos and his forces attack the western gate." Todou stopped for a moment and the made a mark in front of the caverns, "Most-likely the General has some of Dr. Wright's genetic experiments guarding this area, so that's off limits. I say that we send Cougar, Natalie, and Destined enter through the sewers, Cougar and Natalie should have no problem getting past the traps with their abilities and Destned's power would be useful for an attack from the inside of the base, besides that once he's inside we could let him unleash himself on them without having to worry about him hurting our people. But I also recommend you order that if an enemy surrenders that they aren't to be harmed."

 

Kallen nodded and then spoke, "Well come to think of it that would probably be the best course of action because that way we'd be forcing the forces at the gates to focus on us and that would make it so that Cougar, Natalie, and Destined would have less to deal with in the sewers. What do you think Akima?"

 

Akima raised his hands and shook his head, "Don't look at me! It sounds alright, and you two know their ways of doing thinks better than we do so I'll trust you on that."

 

Aya looked at Lora and whispered, "The truth is... I'm from the Western Military. I'm sorry, but until I came out here I didn't know that the Western Military was hurting anyone! Please forgive me!" Aya grabbed onto Lora and started crying into Lora's shirt.

 

Catherine stood up and walked over to Black and whispered into his ear, "Would you mind telling me why there is a man named White who stole my phone and whose mind is and echo of yours?"

Black looked at Catherine with a confused look and shut his mind down, unless it applied directly to the conversation at that moment. "White? Never heard of him." He said simply and rebuttled "Mind telling me why you didn't inform the group that your phone had been stolen?"

Omar then walked out of the room and glided in the air and went outside. He then exited the door and looked at the Western City. "I don't like this part of town, it reeks..." Omar then smelled something fishy, "...evil somewhere but i can't find it."

 

Omar then jumped back down to the meeting and landed on his own two feet. I don't know why Koya led us here but something isn't right... at all! Omar said looking at the meeting.
