I am brought into a room, rather rudely. I find that Queen Surukai and Dante are sitting at the table.

However, I lean against the wall and glare at Dante, while thinking, "Dante better start confessing. He has done it this time."

(INFERNO's Search and Retrivial Squad a.k.a ISARS
ISARS: sir we are just waiting for the confirmation from The Red Queen...we will then storm the base if they are there...

Inferno, Damon, and Admiral Honeydew recieve emmisaries from King Joseph, pledging his aid in the retrieval of Der Fuhrer, Queen Surukai, and Dante.

King Joseph

its nice to see a man that the great king trusts i welcome you for this search

Excellent, my men will do all they can to retrieve Der Fuhrer, Surukai, and Dante.

OOC: You can use my armies and whatnot if I'm not on, so long as they don't get slaughtered or anything like that.

King Joseph

we will await for the Red Queen to tell us if the base is where they are being at...

*Queen Surukai glares at Dante.*

"So why are we here anyway?"

*All of a sudden Der Furher is thrown on the floor and Queen Surukai looks to her in utter disbelievment.*

"They got you too? Wow."

*She watches Der Fuhrer take a seat next to her.*

"Dante was just about to tell us why we are here. Weren't you Dante?"

*Queen Surukai taps her foot lightly.*

I sit down next to Queen Surukai and brush myself off. I look toward to Dante, "I was wondering the same thing."

I turn toward Queen Surukai. "Yes, they got me while I was trying to teach Inferno's troop the meaning of subordination. It is a shame and I will not speak of it. This is irrating. I would really like to know why both of us are here."

I turn once again to Dante. I am furious at Dante and myself. I could not stand the fact that I let myself open to an attack. The one time that I do not post about the added protection and I become a captive.

INFERNO To his Troops:This just in they are not in there apparently our sources were wrong go back and teach them the meaning of "checking your sources" now go men find my friends..yes yes yes even Dante that misguided fellow of a man!!!

Der Fuhrer sits there awaiting a response from Dante, when the door is slung open and another man is tossed in. The man is unconscious and hits the ground with a sickening thump.

I turn around take notice right away that the man was none other than Atticus. The brutes of guards leave the room slamming the door shut loudly and locking it.

I rush over to Atticus and help drag him over to my seat, where I sit him upon it. He is still unconscious and slunched into the seat. I move back to the wall and lean against it, glaring once again at Dante.

INFERNO sits in his office looking through field reports..trying to find his lost "allies"

While in the room, I approach Queen Surukai and begin to talk with her.

"Queen Surukai, do you have any ideas on why we are here."

I clench my fist. I think of how bad I would like to grasp Dante's neck and ring it like a duck. He never changed.

why cant i think of where Dante could have taken them if he did at all!!!

"I could not tell you for the life of me why we are here. However, I still think Dante can. Spill it mister!!!!"

*Queen Surukai shoots an icy glare at Dante and he quickly covers his balls in instinct.*

what no way can this be true...i have to go see for myself!!!

Admiral Hunny*Dew and Jon Luther exit a car. They stand outside on old, partially caved in tavern, which had been struck and not repaired from the war.

Inside, they find that they are surrounded by the redolent odor of various old alcoholic beverages. They walk upon shards of broken glass, which crunch helplessly beneath them. Tables are broken and strewn across the room, along with chairs. The place looks as if a bomb blew up within it, which may have happened as a matter of fact.

They work their way to a dark corner, where a concealed door was hidden. They opened the door and carefully walked down the dust and dirt covered stairs.

Once down the stairs they come to another room and enter through a door that needed to be unlocked with a special key, which Admiral Hunny*Dew had with her.

Through the doors they went, and stood before a massive metal and concrete wall. An identification mechanism was the only other object in the room.

Admiral Hunny*Dew swiped a card, did a retinol scan and finger print varification, a voice recording verification, and a secret code. The massive doors began to open slowly revealing a bright light from within.

OOC: the suspence is killing me!!!

IC: my god that is a great relief sort of...o wait no its not now they can be anywhere...son-of-a....

Inferno check your t-grams.

INFERNO leaves his building to go check something he seen in his field reports himself since for this he dont trust anyone else to do the job..

Off of topic:
Sorry I was having trouble getting my post through.

On topic:
Admiral Hunny*Dew and Jon Luther enter the brillant light only to be temporarily blinded by it. Once their eyes adjust, Admiral Hunny*Dew playfully grabs Jon Luther by his hand and runs into the place.

"Jon Luhter," she excitedly calls out, beaming with happiness. "Welcome to The Depths of Hell (base one)."

She is excited that this loyal man to King Joseph, a greatly aspiring Reich member could finally see the power behind The Reich.

She runs ahead, pulling him with her. He look around while being pulled at the uncountable weapon lockers, the massive run way lined with special suited aircrafts, a number of vechiles, and many of other the other things that are hidden within The Depths of Hell.

She led him into a room that had recently been added to the massive underground base. Within this room was an intrinsic computer system. The room itself was large and covered with nothing but a series of computer terminals, applications, mechanisms, etc...

She smiled happily as Jon Luther's jaw dropped in amazement.

INFERNO continues to walk to the location he seen in his reports why didnt i take a damn car or bike or something no i had to be dumb and run dumbass INFERNO!!!

Back in the room, I grow impatient with Dante's silence.

Sorry about the edit. I had an error that really annoyed me. Curse my meticulousness.

OOC:lol no third persons it hurts my head

> Grrr...I was takin a piss. Cant a guy take a piss without being nagged at?

///Dante sat there still grinning.

So duh fuhrer you came. How nice if you and you brought your little friend Atticus whos sleeping! And Surukai you are looking lovely today...So what brings you here?...

He sits there hands behind his chair.///

>Two hours taking a piss. Shame. You did the no no in the bathroom didn't you??<

*Queen Surukai shoots a quick glare at Dante.*

"It wasn't all by choice that we are here."

Off of topic:
It took you long enough.

On topic:
I grow angry with his sarcasm. "That is the question we had asked you. You brought us here and we want to know why. Speak up now," I demand, as seeing that I am not in the mood for his egotism.

///He sits there laughing.

Fools!...

He looks rather uncomfortable in the room.

What?

Yells at duh fuhrer for evil glares.///

says to self:
was that a left or a right at the cool looking tree???

///Guns cock and are pointed at Inferno who was wondering around on Dantes land.

Surrender now or die. You've got two 2 secs to surrder or your head will look like jello.

The guards take aim and dont blink///

"I am not a fool. You are the obscene naive insolent lepidopterist that has plagued our region. I will not be called a fool by you," I enforcingly stated.

ok ok i surrender just dont make me look like lol my moat im sick of looking at red jello damn that moat!!!

///The guards laugh. They knew he'd surrender so they take him away.///

> Duh fuhrer...english???

Off of topic:
In other words Dante, you are a stupid butterfly collector.

On topic:
I turn my "evil glare" back upon Dante. "Tell us what you are doing. You did not just bring us her for nothing. Tell us what you are planning."

that sux i hate looking at red jello i should hav filled it with green jello!!!dont everyone think

///The guards give Inferno a shot that makes him go to sleep and they carry him away///

"Dante, tell us why you started all of this anyhow. Do not give me that bull about you being revengeful on us, because we all know that there is more behind why you declared a full pledged war on."

*Queen Surukai stares blankly at the wall as she gets into deep thoughts of stupidity.*

"Whoohoo. Can we all at least hear an answer Dante?"

*Queen Surukai starts to tap her foot again.*

> A butterfuly collector? DAMN they've figured me out! NO!

///guards take Inferno to taxi taht drives him somewhere///

> One day you'll figure it out...

"Then tell me why you tried to kill Queen Surukai."

INFERNO sleeps....

> OH! that...well you see I was drunk and paranoid and trigger happy and...Actually at that time I was still planning to fully take over your region. I knew she was the intelligence of the region and if I took her out then I would have "technically" defeated all of the major reich forces. I still has all intentions of defeating your region at that time. I wasnt through with you all yet...

"Let me understand this. You befriended Queen Surukai just to kill her. Moreover, "technically" defeat us, please explain more. Dante, also tell us if you still plan to take over our region."

INFERNO starts to wake up

INFERNO:huh what the to sleepy!!!

> I didnt befriend Surukai! I really did care for her and that what prevented me from going on with that plan earlier. But that night something just triggered it and I had the desire to continue the plan. I would've won because I woulda accomplished my goals. My goal was to take out your military and defense which I did! I took you out from within before war was even declared and I stopped advancement by cutting that mote in Infernos nation. I killed your council and took COSP so that last thing left to do was take out the intelligence...No for once Im on your side...

///Inferno is carried into the room and thrown in like duh fuhrer///

I am startled as I watch Inferno being hurtled into our room. I rush for the door. However, they slammed and locked it shut before I could further advance.

Still listening to Dante, I turn around and lean back against my wall.

"I understand. That explains much more than you could imagine. You said that you are on our side. Then tell me who is against us."

*Queen Surukai grows impatient.*

"So why are we here. Going to try and kill me again? But this time, ohh, let me guess. You want an audience?"

*Queen Surukai gives him an icy stare and taps her foot to the beat of his favorite song.*

Atticus wakes up slowly. His thinking is indirect and he mutters and mumbles incoherent sentences to us.

I am so surprized that Atticus is awake that I walk over to him, forgetting all else in the room.

"Atticus. Please be alright."

I watch Atticus closely. It has been a long time since I have seen him and I have never received a report about what happened in that nation.

> An audience? No its not like that...my queen...

INFERNO recoils alittle from the pain of hitting the cold hard floor...

*Queen Surukai looks up in a fit of rage.*

"Formalities off a--hole!"

*She is out of her seat in a flash and over to him in about 5 seconds, on the sixth, she is choking him and he cannot breath at all.*

"Never again!"

I kneel aside Atticus. He speaks to me finally.

"Der Fuhrer, you are alive. But, they told me that they killed you. They said that the war broke out again and you were killed because I was not there to protect you.....," Atticus broke off as he slipped into unconsciousness.

I am so confused by this information that I turn and glare at Dante.

INFERNO hears a great hooplaa going on but he cannot do anything until the shot wears off

> ....but my.....queen......cant......breathe.....i....just....o.....k....

///Dante gasps for his breath...hands still behind his back....defenseless.///

I laugh as I watch Queen Surukai "venting". She reminds me of myself when we were at Dante's home. I am suddenly compelled myself to go over and give Dante what he deserves. However, I choose to remain by my long lost Atticus. I look over to Inferno who is trying to come out of the effects of the drug.

"Damn you! I said never agai-"

*She notices he is not fighting her choking grasp. She looks to where his hands are, but then sees he is in handcuffs.*

"Why are you in damned handcuffs. No kinky stuff Dante!"

///I try and speak but her grasp was tightened. Darkness was coming as I gasped desperately for air...///

INFERNO says No queen Surukai dont do that..

But all that accually comes out is
mnmn asdkfhh fhuekjs djfir ldfu

"Now once again I am not your Queen. Okay???"

*She lets go of her grip and sits back down in her seat.*

"Dante is in handcuffs," I called out from my space aside Atticus. If this is true, then there is something really wrong with this picture.

///Catching my breath I sit there wishing I could've protected myself.

....damn you....now why'd you....do that?

Dante couldnt talk right.

....yeah handcuffs...i was hopin...ya know.....nevermind.....cant even joke anymore......dont you get it....

HE shifts trying to get comfortable but his hands pinned behind his back stopped him///

"From what I understand, if you are in handcuffs then that means that you are captured as well. If that is true, then your people have turned against you. That, or you are are trying to deceive us to kill one of us."

INFERNO manages to turn over but that is all he could do before he passed out!!!

> Damn you figured me out...I was going to blow your head off with this shotgun I have right here on my lap...but anyways BINGO! Dont you see...Im not the enemy anymore. When you took me to court you stripped me of my power. When I left I came here to settle these little disputes in my nations and they cpatured me. They didnt want the people to follow me anymore...they said that I played my part in the game and now its time to sacrifice the pawn...

"If you say that they used you like a pawn, then that means that you were being controlled by someone else. Tell us more about this, it is quite interesting."

///Dante starts to scoot the chair toward Inferno making loud screetches each time. The handcuffs cutting into his skin deeper and deeper each time until a little trickle of blood is coming from his wrists. He makes it to Inferno and kicks him in the stomach.

GET UP...///

"Whoa. Where did you being a pawn in someone's game ever seem possible? The great Dante and his lackeys could never follow someone else, let alone their conciounces. Insanos."

*She taps her foot.*

what hellspawn?

"I know Queen Surukai. No one would have ever guessed. That is what makes this very interesting. Dante, the man without remorse, a pawn. Makes one want to laugh."

> No its not exactly like that. My people obeyed me out of fear and respect. But a series of lies was told to them by some people and they believed alot a rubbish. IF I came back into their world then it would ruin these peoples plans so they lured me into coming to regain my power and BAM....captured just as you all were lured into finding me...

"So all of a sudden, he is the lackey for a change and everyone still doesn't understand."

///kciks Inferno again

WAKE UP!...///

King Joseph recieves word of Inferno's absence. "Where did he run off to? And all by himself too! *sigh* Well, it's time to get down to business."

INFERNO jumps up and hits Dante what the hell you kick me for??? umm...yeah hi everyone

I laugh at Dante's moving of the chair and get a compelling idea. I stand up and walk over to Dante. With one speedy and blazing sweep of my foot, I "kick out the chair," that is still attached to Dante's wrists.

Jon Luther puts his tounge back in his mouth and says, "Ma'am, this is surely the most powerful arsenol I have ever seen. For what purpose have you brought me here, for surely you could lead an army with such weapons?

King Joseph

*It takes Queen Surukai a moment to compose herself, she laughed so hard. She stand him back up, and in a Chun Li style kick, he has been knocked over again.*

"This is to much fun."

> Hey King Joseph...great to see you!

///I grin as pain rushed through me from Infenro.

HA! OOPPPSSS...///

STOP CALLING ME INFENRO

*Queen Surukai looks down at the dismantled figure of Dante. Picks him back up, and kicks once more.*

"Whoohoo."

> WOO HOO! THANKS!!! Look Inferno they

KICKED OUT THE CHAIR...

well maybe at the wrong time...but stilll!

///Dante smashes face first into the ground as the chair slid out from under him. An odd snap is heard as his wrists break from the position they were in when the chair fell. The break was that bad that a bone popped through the skin (forgot what that is called)

DAMN....

DAntes body was at such an odd position with face on ground...wrists broken...chair on top him....knees bent at odd angles...///

INFERNO picks up dante and tries to kick out the chair but he hurts his bad knee...

King Joseph is told by one of Inferno's men that he ran off to WhiteCastle. "WhiteCastle? So, they're there, I suppose. All right, well, since Jon Luther had to go off to that tournament, very strange of him to do such a thing, I'll have to send Paul Constantius. Paul!"

Paul Constantius hurries up to his king. "You bellowed, your highness?"

"Indeed I did, Paul, indeed I did. As it stands, Dante, Queen Surukai, Der Fuhrer, and now Inferno, have all dissappeared. I believe that some, if not all, of them are being held in the lands controlled by WhiteCastle. I need you to go and rescue them. You are the only one I can trust with this task. Can you do it?"

"Yes Sir!"

"Good, then take as many men as you deem necessary with you, and return with my fellow leaders. Go, and God's speed."

With that, Paul Constantius takes 10 men, any more would be too easily spotted, and heads into the lands of WhiteCastle.

King Joseph

>Good night all. Too sleepy to continue. Byes.<

*Kicks Dante in the balls. Whoo funness.*

Meanwhile, back in The Depths of Hell (base one)
Admiral Hunny*Dew smiles innocently at Jon Luther.

"I am not planning to use this aresenal, at the moment. No, I am here to show you this...," she swipes her hand across the air. "This, The Red Queen's home here. This is very important, indeed. You have been chosen to help maintain The Red Queen. Due to current events, The Red Queen is going to need some monitoring. She will be working heavily on finding Der Fuhrer and Queen Surukai, and we need a reliable person for helping her. I hope you understand and feel free to ask questions."

Jon Luther, though an old man, did tend to act like a child at times. This was one of those times. "What does this button do?"

King Joseph

> WHY! YOU HIT SO HARD

///curls up in little ball///

Off of topic:
Good night Queen Surukai.

On topic:
I laugh at the spectacle I had created, until I feel bad about it and pick up the chair, sliding Dante back into it. His wrists, a mess of a compound fracture. For once, I feel pity for him. Maybe, he is on our side now, but I am not going to let my guard down for one second. His wrists are bleeding heavily now. A vein had been cut by the bone. I take off my arm band; a black insignia of The Reich, and tie it to the wrist which is damaged the most; his right wrist.

INFERNO says poor Dante galad it was him and not me!!!

ey thats his shooting arm aint it???

"Oh no, do not hit that," she exclaimed as he pressed the button. She put her hand to her head and nodded. "Remember, you did it not me."

The computers all turn on at once. A little girl's voice is heard wailing.
"Leave me alone. I want to sleep."

Angry, she goes into Inferno's nation and padlocks all internet sites. She then puts the level of access to G rated. To finish off venting she implants a virus in half his corporations computer terminals.

Off of topic:
Inferno, if I am going to play other characters then I must do it correctly. Everyone know that you are The Red Queen's best friend.

> GRRR...no fair....

my post didnt go through...I dont know why???

OOC: no not my pron sites nooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

IC: I wish i had a hat!! sorry still some effects of the shot

Admiral Hunny*Dew tries to calm the tired girl, but to no avail. She soflty murmured, "To think that The Red Queen is just like a child; a computer intelligence created so identical to a human."

She sits herself down at one of the many seats in the room and begins working with a code. In no time, The Red Queen calms down.

"Admiral Hunny*Dew," cried out The Red Queen. "I am so glad to see you."

"As well as I," she responded. "I need to introduce you to someone. The Red Queen, this is Jon Luther. Jon Luther, The Red Queen."

///sits on chair///

I simply state the facts, 'Yes, his shooting arm. Now, Inferno give me something to cover his other wrist and hurry."

lol damn pron!!

At first taken aback by this strange device, Jon Luther quickly remembers that the Red Queen was the one who had gotten his king involved in the Reich. "A pleasure, ma'am."

The Red Queen is very happy to see one of King Joseph's men. So happy, that she reveals her image upon the screens. (image not available at the moment).

"Admiral Hunny*Dew. Tell me what he is doing here."

"Red Queen, he will be coperating with you in the search. I need you right now to bring up a map of the nation Whitecastle," stated Admiral Hunny*Dew.

INFERNO sits in an open chair and lets the rest of the question Dante while he puts ice on his knee...

"Inferno, I said that I needed you to find me something to cover Dante's other wrist with. I still have vextations that I want answered," I demanded as I knelt there applying pressure to Dante's wound.

here INFERNO rips the long sleeves off of his shirt and gives them to Der Fuhrer...

Back in The Depths of Hell (base one):

The Red Queen laughes, as a replica of Whitecastle's nation appears on all the screens.

Admiral Hunny*Dew points her finger to a sector the massive nation. "Right around here is where I suspect they are. We have nothing on this area, because it is a desolate area of death. Long ago a fire ravished the place and since then, nothing has come around that area. I think we should concentrate all search parties here."

The Red Queen encircled the nation with a red line. She printed the map, and Admiral Hunny*Dew handed it to Jon Luther. "Here, you keep this," she said as she handed him the map. "Red Queen listen to what Jon Luther asks for and comply to his wishes."

The Red Queen agreed.

****Note: Red Queen, I am playing your character. Do not get mad at me, but we need her.

> Sorry bout the long response. Had to go...when you gotta go you go!

I take the cloth and wrap it around Dante's bleeding and broken wrists. He does not flinch as I strike the bone the pertruded through the skin, by accident.

"Dante, tell us who these people are that are controlling you now."

"Dante, also tell us who it is that captured you. It could not have been loyal soldiers."

INFERNO sits restless in his chair....

I don't know how you guys do it, but I need to go to bed. It's an early morning tomorrow. Good-night!

King Joseph

///Although thankful for the help Dante was angry beyond belief.

DAMN YOU! I wasnt controlled. They just LURED me in. Stupid move on my behalf. I was going to end all this rebellion that sprung up to lure me in. I didnt know it was all a trap.....OK! Is that what you wanted to hear? DANTE F'D UP REALLY BAD! DAMMIT! Is that what you wanted to hear?

His yell echoed in the room.///

INFERNO lets out a loud laugh!!!

Off of topic:
Good night King Joseph. Thank you.

On topic.
"Dante," I cut off though seeing that he was really aggrivated about something. I could tell that a betrayal took place. That was the only reason for such an outburst. Someone betrayed him and I was going to find out who.

OOC: goodnight KING Joseph

> I wasnt betrayed. Just F'D up really bad. Trusted the wrond people and let myself fall into a trap.

///guards stormed in the room with guns raised. One came up to Dante and smashed him in the head with the butt of his rifle knocking him out cold.

Thats enought chit chat Dante. Stop telling lies.

They uncuffed him and lifted his limp body off the chair.

Damn boy what did you do to your wrists. Cant leave you alone for a simple hour or so.

They drag him out of the room. Each guard escorted one of the prisoners out of hte room and toward a dark prison below. Dante was taken elsewhere.///

I comply to this "man-handling" as they take me away to a dark cold prison cell, which happens to be right between Queen Surukai and Inferno.

"Inferno, Queen Surukai, listen something is really wrong here. Tell me if you think we should trust that Dante is telling the truth now or just trying to deceive us."

Atticus is rudely thrown into another cell. He still has not woken back up.

what are you doing leave me alone...INFERNO gets pushed instead of a response...

I think maybe we could trust him if we ever see him again...but one thing these damn people are pissing me off shoving me everywhere...

///a guard laughes at Inferno.

Dante is taken to a cell below the rest and thrown there. The hit to the back of hte head only knocked him out for a little. He was muttering now.

Damn...stop that...just wait....

You stop telling lies and we wont have to beat you senseless.

Im not...your the ones...

A fist silences him.

SHUT UP DAMN YOU.

He starts incoherently muttering.

I should've ever done that...no....why'd she leave me...

WHAT???? The gaurds were puzzled by this reponse. Whats he talking about?

Oh she left....why.....

Dante passes out///

INFERNO:DON"T LAUGH AT ME!!!

With that INFERNO is punched in the face and his lip is busted open...

INFERNO: dammit great now my lip is bleediing...

"Inferno, we are captives and perhaps, hostages. It is best that we comply to their disrespect for national leaders. That is, if you and I value our lives. I know I will one day die, but this is not what I have in mind. Moreover, I want to learn more about this situation.

"I am aggrivated as well. However, I must not fight back yet. I hope that we do see Dante again. I still have vextations that I need answers to."

INFERNO:(in an EVIL tone) HA HA HA HA you will see i will make you pay for making me bleed

lol your pokemon shall be mine!!!

damn shot still has alittle affect dammit...

///The guards laughed again

TAKE THAT.

'''Stop that THIS instand.

A mans voice is heard. It was a high general in Dantes army.

We're not going to harm the others. Not yet....

Yes SIR!

Now go get the girl. We're going to find out everything we could before we finish this.

yes SIR!

They guards left and the general locked inferno in his cell.///

lol it will take more then that to break mee!!!

and i will never ever,ever,ever,ever,ever,ever,ever write a song about the SIBBI

I slam my fists off the cell.

"If we are not the current threat, then leave us out of this," I yell at the general who locked the cell. I am furious now.

"If this is all because you are not half the man that Dante was then why are you bringing us into all of this."

I slam my fists off the cell again.

"Tell me what all this talk about this girl is. You are not going to bring a child into this and if you are referring to The Red Queen or The Little Girl then there is no way that you are going to be able to hack their codes," I fume.

goodnight all!!!

///The general looks at the raving woman.

Whats this? You're concerned? Now why would you care abotu something taht doesnt pertain to you? Keep quite for your own good!

He leaves the room laughing to himself and goes up to Dante who is awake and struggling to say anything. His wrists bled through the cloth and he muttered incoherently.///

I sit down on the cold ground.

Atticus stirs from another cell and I could hear him talk to me.

"Der Fuhrer, listen to me," Atticus spoke quitely. "This is important. There is much you need to know."

///a standby guard fires a shot and all is quiet. Atticus ceased talking.///

Off of topic:
I am leaving as well.

On topic:
"Atticus," I scream into the darkness of the cold prison.

*Queen Surukai looks around the damp cell. She hears a gun shot, Der Fuhrer shouting out to him. Then silence. Pure silence. She keeps quiet for fear of her life.*

'Damn! How did I get tied into this? Ughh. What was Dante mummbling about? Gods. It's been months now since I have been in my own nation. Grr. I want to be home in bed again.'

*She hears Inferno shouting something about his ego and giggles silently. At least she had some entertainment.*

"Der Fuhrer," the quiet voice of Atticus is heard calling to me. "Der Fuhrer," then silence again.

"Atticus," I call out to him, but there is no reponse.

Jon Luther replies, "Ah, thank you very much. I'm sure this will be most useful. Red Queen, would you please send this map to King Joseph? I'm sure he could use it right about now. Thank you."

She sends the map to King Joseph, along with some text describing what it represents, and where the leaders may be being kept.

King Joseph recieves the map only 5 minutes later. "Paul! Here is a map that will help you in your search. You will be dropped on the periphery of the dead lands. Now go, for realies this time."

Paul Constantius and his elite covert-ops fighters arrive in the dead lands a short while later, and begin searching for anything that looks like it could harbor numerous national leaders. After wandering around for about 2 hours, making certain that they are not seen, of course, they find an old cement building. There are numerous guards at the entrance. Paul Constantius gives his men the order to take them out, and it is done quickly, efficiently, and most important, quietly (silenced weapons). They head into the bowels of this mysterious base.

King Joseph

OFF topic: Queen Surukai i wasnt talking about me ego i was telling them to LEGGO ME EGGO!!!

IC:INFERNO sits in his cell singing "I saw mommy k.i.s.s.i.n.g Santa c.l.a.w.s lol!!!

I slam my fists against the wall, "Inferno, this is not the time. Use your head to help figure out a way to get out of there, instead of useless singing."

I wonder to myself whether Queen Surukai is asleep or not. She is rather silent.

"Queen Surukai please talk to us."

*Queen Surukai hears Der Fuhrer shout to her. She is debating whether to talk back or not. She is fearful of the guards with guns. She settles upon slamming her fists on the wall. She slams her fists to one of Der Fuhrer's well known songs. The Marsh Lagoons.*

>I could not help but incorperate such a good song. Whoohoo. Yay for Twizted!!<

"Queen Surukai, good. I was beginning to worry," I responded to her song, while being reminded highly of Dante.

I think to myself, "I wonder where Dante is now. I wonder what they are going to do to him. That one guard looked particularlly familiar."

My train of thought went on as I sat, knees bended in the dark corner of the cell, watching out of it. I had never been in this position before. I could see now why Dante was so aggrivated with fifteen years of solitary isolation. Not being able to know what is going on outside of your tiny prison, is irrating, indeed.

INFERNO: aaaaa only the weak cant handle prison i was in prison for five years and i did my time with no prob granted i too was in solitery lockup but i kept my sanity...

INFERNO: JINGLE BELLS JINGLE BELLS JINGLE ALL THE WAY!!!

"Inferno, this is the last time that I will tell you to stop this insanity and think of something constructive or at least remain silent. You are breaking my concentration, which at this moment is direly needed," I barked at Inferno, my arms crossed across my chest and my back against the corner.

I stand up looking around the cell. There is no way to escape and there is nothing that will faintly help in an escape. I curse the place and begin to pace while thinking of other alternatives.

INFERNO: oooooooooo WHY DONT YOU COME OVER HERE AND MAKE ME!!! o wait you cant your in a prison cell HA HA HA HA take that!!!

///A silent shot is heard. A trankdart lodges itself in Infernos neck. High heels are heard walking down into what little light is in the prison.

Der Fuhrer he was annoying me too. Let me introduce myself. You could call me Autumn.

Autumn unlocks the cell and holds out her hand smiling.///

oooooooooooo thats it you know what im gunna do????

SHUN!!!

HA I shuned you all

INFERNO: passes out bastards!!!

I accept the handshake.

"You know who I am. Tell me the reason that you are here and for what purpose are you fighting for."

///Autumn guides Der Fuhrer away from the prison and into another room up many flights of stairs.

I want to talk to you about what you know about Dante. What did he tell you? He's in a bad condition....that blow to his head really messed him up. We can't make heads or tails out of what he's saying. HE keeps talking about some night years ago...a dark cold room...a bright light and a cold counter...a betrayed feeling...something about some Clara and Surukai...and something about f'in up really bad. No one knows what he's ranting about...Know anything?

She sits and waits for a reply.///

SHUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

"Dante, he has told us much. I can not reveal any of that information with you. I will not reveal that information. I do not know who you are or who you are speaking for. Therefore, I can not release this information to you."

i will shun you all in my sleep INUYASHA IS coming on

///Autumn affended sits there.

Then don't trust me. I was trying to help him before they got to him. You're so clueless. They're going to kill him...don't you see that. We were fine with controlling them until you idoits let him out of the court room. That's were we lost control. They took over and captured Dante before he could make a public appearance and save this all from happening. YOU LET THIS HAPPEN!

SHe began to cry.

Everything that we stood I fought to protect and keep pure. No people like you had to screw everything up. Dante was best in prison. The people looked to us and put their faith in us. We grew strong and we were going to overthrow them. They were planning to kill you! FOOLS! Dont you see....they tried to kill me to stop me from gaining control. Then they told a bunch of lies and now they're going to kill Dante to make sure that he doesnt screw things up.

ITS ALL YOU FAULT!///

INFERNO stands up and rubs his head uh damn people im stick ob them using them shots on me!!!

INFERNO: i hate when people give me shots i dont like to pass out!!!

Paul Constantius leads his troupe furhter into the enemy base. He still doesn't even know for sure if this is where the national leaders are being kept, but it is the only place he could find that even remotely looked like a hide-out.

As the men plunge deeper into the bunker, they begin to encounter numerous well-armed guards. Paul would prefer to avoid fighting when possible, but he didn't know how far he could go without having to kill the men who protected this place. It seemed that there were more guards the deeper they went. "Figures," thought Paul, "well, I hate to do this, but it's the only way I can give my men a fighting chance. Men, you are to kill enemies on sight. But be sure they are enemies first. It wouldn't do to kill those we are coming to rescue."

And so, they continue their search for the missing leaders. Whenever they encounter an enemy soldier, these skilled men slay him and hide his body. But it will only be a matter of time until they are found out....

King Joseph

INFERNO sits in his cell trying to think of a plan to escape but the shot that was given to him makes him alittle Delirious. He stands up and walks right out of his cell door he then walks over to Queen Surukai's cell door and starts saying awwww look mommy look at that animal is it dangerous can we get it...

INFERNO quickly runs back to his cell and closes the door He says mommy it bit meeee!!!

"Autumn, tell me when are they going to kill him and why. I know you said so that he does not interefere, but there must be more to it then that. Dante has no regard for life, so slaying his is not going to accomplish anything. Tell us then, why are you here and what are you trying to accomplish."

aaaaaaaa im right behind you HA HA HA HA!

OOC: Alright Der Fuhrer. No problem!

IC:

[little girl laughes]

Updating report to King Joseph

and send

*sends report*

This is more information about the place you are at. It appears to be a deep unground lair. Very big! There are different compartments. This place is run by electricity so I can't help. OH! Wait! There is a small sector that is electrically powered. I'll go there now.

*transferes self to sector in base*

///Three generals sit at a table smoking and drinking.

When they going to me back with her?

Tonight.

Good. Is he making sense yet?

No.

Who's the idiot who hit him.

Smitty.

Damn hiM!

A messenger runs into the room.

Sir sectors 1-3 havent responded to hourly calls.

WHAT?

Sir we cant find them

SHHITT! SECURE THE PERIMETER! DONT LET ANYONE IN OR OUT! CEPT THE BOYS COMIN IN TONIGHT!

Yessir.

The messenger leaves and the generals sit looking mildly disturbed. They give orders for men to take watch.

Well...if all else fails then we'll do our duty!

Thats what were here for!///

INFERNO hears far off in the distance a childs voice...

Child: Grammy Where are they takeing us?

Guards: Keep Moving!!!

(Letter to Whitecastle)

Dearest Whitecastle,

Hello! My name is Rubella, lovely leader of the nation of Rubella. I am asking that you accept my invitation to negotations. I would like to talk with you if you don't mind.

Please consider my offer towards peaceful negotations. There is much we could accomplish and all I am asking now is that we just talk. Thank you very much dearest Whitecastle!


Until then,

Rubella

Off of topic:
Thank you Rubella. It has been a long time since we have heard from you.

OOC: yes we havnt had rubella in awhile....

IC: INFERNO sits in his cell waiting for his turn to die

INFERNO: I am ready to die take your shot!!!

"Autumn, please tell us more about you."

King Joseph paces back and forth. It was a nervous habit of his he'd developed in childhood. A messenger came to him but he was so busy pacing that he didn't even notice for several minutes, and the messenger did not want to interupt his king while he was deep in thought.

Finally, King Joseph realized he was not alone in the room, and said, "Oh, I'm sorry Tim, I didn't realize you were there. What do you have for me?"

"Well sir, we have recieved numerous messages from one Grim, leader of the nation of Ishkabibel, a heretofore unknown nation. It seems that he wishes to join in our search for your fellow leaders. I personally don't know whether or not we should trust him, but that is your decision to make, not mine."

King Joseph replies, "Yes, it is my choice, but I do value your oppinion, Tim. You've been a loyal servant for sometime now, and you have never faltered. However, I think that it would be prudent to accept this "Grim's" offer of aid. He may not be trustworthy, but we just don't know, and right now we need some allies. By the way, how did he come by this information? Weren't all of the governments keeping this very hush-hush?"

"Yes sir. I don't know how he found out about it."

"Mmmm. Well, perhaps we shall have an answer to that later. At any rate, send him our thanks for the offer, and give him the suspected co-ordinates."

"Yes sir!" Tim turns and rushes from his king's presence.

When Tim has left, King Joseph whispers to himself, "I hope I have done the right thing in accepting his offer. Too many lives hang in the balance."

King Joseph

Paul Constantius and his men continue their trek into the belly of the bunker. It was massive. They had been moving quickly for 20 minutes now, and still had not discovered the national leaders. They were becoming nervous. How much longer could they go without being caught?

Time and again, they met with a few guards, and these were always quickly and efficiently dealt with, but there was no sign of the leaders anywhere. They were now deep in enemy territory, and they were lost. If only they could get some outside help! *hint hint*

King Joseph

Grim sits in his submarine off the coast of White Castle. Althalus approaches his leader and stands at attention."Report Soldier" said the man sitting in the seat. Althalus said Quickly and with fervor "Sir our offers to help the captured national leaders have been accepted should I mobilize our Amphibious units to the specified coordinates?"

Grim grinned and said "Of course, And send Guts' unit as well i have a feeling they will be needed, use the dropship to get his unit and two units of seals there first."

-=Grim=-

Vice Admiral Guts and the units under his command are just minutes away from the bunker. Inside the transport Chamber he is finishing briefing his units "Remeber The National leaders are Our Main Priotory we can't afford any deaths when it comes to the leaders. We must Attempt to save all of their lives including Dante's."

The Pilot says sir we're approaching the drop point and it looks like a hot LZ were gonna have to use the capsules or else the drop is gonna be a snafu." Guts shouts to his soldiers "alright You know what to do people get equipped and move! move! move!."

The Soldiers grab their weapons and the seals put on there heavy assault armor and demolition gear they then enter the drop capsules as quickly as possible as soon as everyone is loaded the pilot hits the drop button the Epsilon corporation capsule's doors close and the forty soldiers begin their plummet to the earth in their individual capsules.

As their descent begins to come to a close the reverse thrusters kick in slowing them so their drop is not lethal the capsule then go into formation before embedding themselves into the ground.

The Capsule doors fly open and Vice admiral guts shouts "Move! Move! Move! and fire on any confirmed enemies as you go, My Unit will enter the building you seals need to secure the perimeter."

Suddenly the seals units opened fire protect guts and his Team as the quickly made their way into the bunker one of the seals units machine gunners was shot in the knee but kept firing as he was down on the ground shouting to his comrades "go on with out me.".

Guts shouts to one of his team "Cover me and help me take him to the entrance of the bunker." Guts runs to the downed soldier with his gun blazing. Guts quickly throws the downed man over his shoulder and continues to run while being shot at His team member killed at least twenty of the enemies as she was covering her leader.

Then she and her Leader quickly ran into the bunker with the rest of his team as the seal units outside countinued there route of the enemies guarding the perimeter. Guts transmits to the seal units "When your done. One Unit must stay out and hold the perimeter until the rest of our troops arrive. Send the other unit in to cover our backs."

Guts gently places the injured seal down props him up against the wall and tells him to cover the entrance as he gives the wounded man a shot of pain killers mixed with diazapam and quickly has one of his field medics bandage the soldier's wound.

After patching up the wounded man Guts and his unit quickly follow the the bodies of fallen enemies deep into the bunker reaching the man he was told about by his Leader Grim.

Guts Says to The tired looking soldier "You must be Paul Constantius I was sent by an ally to help you and your men locate the leaders and find out about this Autumn person and potentially take her down." Guts tells his unit "Hold your position listen to what Paul has to tell us while we defend our positions."

-=Grim=-

The Remainder of Grims Navy Arrived in 10 Larcs 3 Lvt4s 6 lvt5's and 6 Aslav 8x8's they landed on the shore a half hour after The dropship had made its deposit at the base. The units mobilized the amphibious vehicles with the Aslavs in the lead followe by the larcs with armed men watching the sides and three jeeps from the lvt4s carrying the remainder of the men and quickly they drove to the bunker. Five of the Larcs carried only 10 troops but many supplies the others carried the max load of twenty

OOC: For those of you who dont know A larc is a large amphibious landing craft that has an open top that can carry ten troops plus a poo load of supplies, twenty troops with little to no supplies Lvt 4s are cargo units and can carry 31 troops plus a jeep and the lvt5 is a heavy armor amphibious tank that can also carry 31 soldiers however cannot carry a jeep but does have a mounted 75 mm gun turret The Aslav can carry nine tropps apeice and is a light armor amphibious tank its weaponry is consisted of primary: M242 25mm chain gun, with thermal imaging sight
secondary: M240 7.62mm machine gun, co-axial to the main gun
supplementary: MAG58 7.62mm machine gun, pintle mounting on roof
ancillary: two clusters of four 76mm smoke grenade launchers

Ic: The Troops in there vehicles pound rapidly toward the base so they can provide back up among other things for the units that got there before them.

-=Grim=-

Grim sends a message to King Joseph Stating. "You may control my units Until I return Tommorw protect them and They will protect you That is all I will continue Tommorow Signing off."

Gut's Decidng this was the Farthest he could go right now Sets up a camp in the Bunker and has his Team take guard shifts and sleep shifts he however sleeps only once every three shifts until morning making sure that his camp inside the bunker is thoroughly secured and that Paul and his Troops are also well protected.

OOc: Good Night All

-=Grim=-

Paul Constantius warmly accepted the offered aid from Guts, that is, after he had realized he was not an enemy. Now leading his own men and those of Guts, Paul continues his journey through the bunker.

They find, and skirt, the mess hall of the enemy soldiers. Their plunge into the depths continues.

They come to a long corridor. It seems odd somehow. It is different from the others before it, not by its look, but by the way it feels. "This doesn't feel right. Seems like we're walking into a trap."

King Joseph

i would like to know more about autumn also...

> I couldnt respond before. I'm on now and going to break this up so try and follow.

///Autumn sits there and lifts her head with tears coming down her face.

Dont you see. I've spent so much time working on THIS and now for what? For it all to be thrown away in seconds? Damn! Dante meant SO much to me and my people. He showed us that one could never give up and must try and acheive what you want. I know that Dante wasnt the typical role model but he showed us that its possible to acheive your goals...I mean look at him! After all that he went through he still lived and fought! He's the inspiration of billions!

Thats why they want him dead! They know that if he makes a public apperance and the people see him alive then they will turn back to his side and overthrow the new government. They believe in him and will fight to the death to protect him. But the new government told some lies. They told the people that Dante was dead and that YOU killed him! The people HATE you. They want you dead now and want to take down your nations.

All was going to their plan and I was working against them. I created a rebel faction that was going against this rebel government. But someone knows that Im not with them and tried to kill me. They think Im dead and now I'm here to fix everything...hopefully.

My rebel faction is here too. But they are working somewhere else. They suspect that another base is working with this one and that there is a deep connection between the two. We dont know what but we heard glimpses of it through tapped conversations. My rebel factions is strong and we're the only ones who know the truth. We're the ones TRYING to get Dante back but everyone seems to be preventing us.

We might've started off bad but I'm here to help you all! Please help me out!

She stopped for a moment...///

INFERNO sits in his cell wondering what could the reason be that we were all kidnapped there is no main reason as far as he knows but what if it was actually just a diversion

[[[meanwhile]]]

Sir we've got reports that there are men in the building. We haven't been able to find them but we know they're here somewhere. There is a small pattern in which they're working. They seem to be moving down into the base. We know they penetrated some but we dont know how far sir.

A general looked up from the other three. He had a pissed off face and and a crooked smile.

LEt them come. They cant figure out this place. Remember Dante made it. There's no way anyone but those who worked close with him are going to figure out which ways up from down in here.

The generals laughed about a inside joke that was obviously between them only. The soldier was bothered by this. They were planning something and no one knew what plus they didnt give two shitts about what was going on. The soldier left and told the men to stand ground and watch each others back at all times.

Back in the room the general just laughed and cracked jokes about Dante when another soldier came in.

Sirs we've got them!

Lock them up it THE ROOM and bring that WOMAN here.

Yes sirs!

The soldier left and went to a hall where a group of people were standing. The soldier took a old lady out of the room and dragged her to the GENERALS ROOM. She kicked and tried to yell but they smothered her yells and seized her weak old body.

DAmn for an old lady she hits hard!

They laughed when they brought her into the room. The generals told the men to leave go back and take Surukai for interrogation. The soldiers did so. They went into one of the prison sectors bangin loudly on der fuhrers cell.

WAKEY WAKEY UP!

They opened Surukais cell and took her out and away up to the stairs and into a room that was almost pitch black. They threw her in and locked it.///

///Autumn remebers something.

Oh sorry you asked about me? Well...you could call me Autumn. I used to work very close with Dante when he was in power. I will admit that I he was wrong with his attacks but he inspired us all with his determination that we all went along with him. I wouldnt dare to tell him that what he was doing was wrong but I do take credit for the persuation of only attacking the smaller nations with your COSP. He was going to take you ALL out but I reminded him that he likes to fight fair and that taking out the smaller ones would eliminate any interefernce in the main fight.

You see Dantes forces are different from most other nations. He has a large faction known as Dantes Elite Forces which are above the other branches and trained in all types warfare and branches. AN entire nation is collectively for these people although they dont all live there and they are rarely all there at the same time. I was head of his Elite Forces and one his executive forces which lead his military. His executives worked really close with him because there were only a couple of us. This is the same as with other nations but his differs for many reasons. I wont bore you with that right now.

About me. My past isnt worth discussing becuase like other executives we followed Dantes example of training ourselves to forget it. The past is the past and although Dante was obsessed with revenge for what was done to him he lived in the present as odd and contradictaory as it sounds. He knew that he would make you pay because you did something to him in his past but he forced himself to forget about what happened and just fight in present. I know its confussing but I dont know how else to word it.

I took charge of a rebel force thats main purpose was to take down the new government that took over when Dante first appeared to be dead. Since then they lied to the people and put us out to be the bad ones. They did many things in that time. Some of which you may never know. I got my way into that government and they trusted me but then someone found out that I was trying to overthrow the government and tried to kill me. I dont know if it was govenment affliated or not but I do know that I've got to be very careful know thats why I came to you! They dont know I'm here and I know this place pretty good. IT'll take them a loing time before they realize your not in the cell and when they do they'll take even longer to come close to finding us!

Autumn smiled and wiped away the remainder of a tear streak on her face.///

[[[from soldiers view]]]

Damn where ARE these guys?

Dont know but they're good.

Whos are they?

Dont know haven't seen them yet.

The soldiers patrolled watching each others back. Their guns were ready to be fired and they were itching to shoot.

I wish the Elites were here with us.

Soooo do I!

...Did you see that?

See what?

Over there...

The one soldier raised his gun and nodded his head in the direction. Another went foreward while the others watched his back and their own.

[[[in the room with Dante]]]

Soldiers pace the room laughing and keeping their guns pointed at Dante.

Look at him now. Not to hot is he?

The others laughed. The one went over to a heap of a man thrown onto a cold cement ground in a corner. He was either asleep or unconscious they couldnt tell. His face was pressed against the floor blood dripping from the corner of his mouth making a tiny puddle on the ground under his mouth. His body was kind of curled up from the way he landed with his arms behind his back and recuffed sticking out at odd angles. His wrists were not taken care of properly and the blood came through the cloth and so did a bone. A large cut was in his head that mingled blood with hair from the hit to his head before. HE was a real MESS!

One kicked him in the side of his stomach and a moan escaped him. They laughed when the door opened and a little girl was brought in. She was sobbing alot and crying for her gramma. They threw her in and she landed on her knees still crying. She scrambled onto her feet and a soldiers pushed her and she fell backward.

They laughed and she cried. The one started to coming toward her and mocking her. She backed up still on her butt into Dante. She turned around and saw the sight of him and let out a gasp. She cried heavier thinking that that the guy was dead and the same fate awaited her. She put her hands behind her and pulled them right back. Blood covered the bottoms of them causing her to cry even more.

SHUT UP.

She broke into just a sob and the soldiers started pacing again laughing at the girl.

[[[Generals Room]]]

So...we've found you?

An old woman stood there angry as hell.

What do you want with us? We were NEVER part of this and thats why we were so far AWAY from all this.

Becuase you've got something we want.

Whats that? ///horror filled her face/// NO! LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS! SHES NOT PART OF THIS AT ALL! YOU HEAR ME! LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS!

They just laughed while she yelled.

[[[In Whitecastles HQ of defense]]]

We've just reported a sub in Whitecastle's oceans.

Send the Spirits and Genocide. Take it out.

With quick orders spirits took off eqipped with torpedos and Genocide took to the seas. In moments they struck their target hard and practically unseen except Genocide who acted as a great decoy. The sub was struck hard and was going to sink.

[[[in HQ]]]

We've got numerous reports of heavy weaponary and assult teams heading toward toward sector PL 98625.

Damn it. Whats going on?

Send his Spirits and send out The Elites.

Will they listen?

Yeah they think that we're friends.

Good!

The messenger sends orders to Dantes Elite Forces who mobalize immediatly and dispatch to sector PL 98625. Spirits take off at a blinding speed and begin to perform air stunts in the air awaiting orders to fire. Dantes Elites are quite the entertainers in the air and on ground!

Damn they barged right in without consent and for what?

Dont know sir.

Damn they better not be planning anything. Call for backup and prepare the armies to move.

Yes sir.

What the hells going on?

[[[in the base]]]

Division 3 heard a loud smashin at the enterance and the sound of storming men. They started laughing.

FOOLS!

> Sorry bout all the posts but you overwhelmed me all of that that I had to break it down and post so many times! Fair warning...be careful in what you do. Think before you post. Guts your too careless. You've entered way too loud and without permission for such force. King Joe...great job! Your doing great! Be back on later...

Astonished by Autumn's confession, I sympathize for.

"Autumn, please tell us more about who is leading this "new" government and what they are planning to do. Please tell us more about this whole situation and why it occured. I will be more than willing to talk with you."

Grim Shouts "all men to the escape pod" Grim Quickly boards the escape pod with his men And says to the driver "take me to my base of operations in Ishkabibel I will have control of my fleets there". Grim thinks to himself as they speed of in the mini sub.I just hope the nuke on Fleet admiral sub one doesn't go off.

-=Grim=-

Grims troops quickly snap into action against the elites and spirits the lvt5's fire massive 75mm rounds at the elites ground forces devasting many of them with their first wave of shots. the Aslavs then used their grenade launchers to deploy massive amounts of smoke totally concealing grims Troop movement . Suddenly the troops in Jeeps with mounted chainguns come charging out of the smoke and start firing at the elites in the sky while the drivers of the jeep jump out with B.A.Rs and lay down cover fire for the Chain gunner. The chain gunners shots look like a sheet of fire. The 50. cal. Rounds start ripping the airborn elites and spirits all to hell as all this is going on the remainder of the troops overload themselves into the larcs and speed off to finish securing the perimeter of the bunker as their comrades fend off the attackers.

Meanwhile......

Guts and his men prepare for an ambush or any kind of trap and dawn their gas masks and biohazard gear. Guts distributes extra gas masks to as many of Paul Constatius's men as possible and hands the remaing two oxgen tanks and scuba masks "he said to them don't turn those tanks on until the gas comes because we may need to make an under water escape so please conserve." Guts then holsters his Uzi and equips a Silenced Ak just in case the enemy is plannig an ambush.Suddenly the men hear soldiers rounding the corner they prepare their weapons and are at the ready to fire but the enemy soldier gets off the first shot wounding two of Guts' soldiers and Mortally Wounding one.

Guts quickly jumps into action and rails the approaching enemies with a full clip of ammo. The rest of his team quickly follows suit with there suppressed weaponry and made sure they didn't leave a single enemy soldier from the patroll party alive.

Guts decides that he needs to tend to the wounds of his teammates while all the others except for the field medics defend there perimeters.

Neither of the two injured men were incapicitated one was just slightly grazed the other was shot in the foot however The Soldier who was dying with a lung shot was named Dliza she was a young soldier who had quickly sped through the ranks of the navy and was put on Guts' Elite team She was Coughing up blood and bleeding profusely from the chest. She sputtered to Guts " I'm going to die here aren't I" the Normally Stone faced Vice admiral told his dying comrade "We'll get you out of here" in his most compassionate tone and the he slipped a shot of painkillers and sleeping medication into her arm so she would feel no more pain as she died the Vice admiral then gently removed the Young womans dog tags and placed them in the deceased transmitter on her armor he then said a prayer over her body although it wasnt a regular prayer it was just something he had thrown together for he was not really a religious man. He then Swore that he would kill who ever was responsible for this and that his comrades death would drive him forward no matter what come hell or highwater he wouldn't stop.

In Ishkabibel.....

Grim sees that his men are being attacked and sends in the troops from home and an aircraft carrier full of his privately developed high speed warplanes that are equipped with both sidewinder and hellfire missles and are more than capable of dealing with anything that the enmy can dish out in the air and can travel well over the speed of sound. He also sends out a nuclear disarmament team to disarm the nuke on Fleet Admiral sub one. and notices a deceased marker on his war management creen it was being tranmitted from deep inside the bunker it was that of Dliza Altinius she was a 22 year old who had gotten through the ranks more quickly than everyone on the Elite Team except Guts himself The Leader of the nation himself went to her family's home to inform them of their loss and planned a states funeral for her upon her bodies return or even lack thereof a ceremonial coffin would be buried without the body if she could not return she would still have a headstone in the national cemetary.

-=Grim=-

Suddenly the distraction troops of Ishkabibel disperse and follow the rest of their batallion And The Altezzar 5000 flight wing arrives on the seen atacking the remaning elites and spirits descimating them with there missles. and then quickly return to the aircraft carrier that quickly goes back to ishkabibel waters where it is defended by the nations anti aircraft and sea fareing defenders.

-=Grim=-

"we have lost at least 40 of our ground troops in the attack that was quickly and accurately exacted against us" Reported Johann to his Leader Grim. Grim says " We need more damage control going on out there we also need to begin to be more careful our team has disarmed that nuke but it was certainly a risky situation but it Is our priority to get The leaders and my Comrades out of there with as much speed as possible when it comes to this type of situation we need to demolish as much of the enemy as we can but still we do not wish to lose The leaders Tell guts to hold his position until I gets more orders from king Joseph and tell the other troops to do the same we need to minimize the risk of a very real accident like that Nuke happening again we cannot afford to lose The leaders. The leader who i think currently takes top priority right now is most likely Dante because of his injuries but right now we must have our troops hold there positions until they receive more current orders"

Guts gets the orders from his leader and grudingly follows them he decides to kill time by attemptnig to dig a grave for his fallen comrade and tells his troops to set sentry guns in the hall for protection and to await their orders.

OOC: This is Grim Signing off Good Night all and soorry about the blittz last night I just had War Lust and tonight i had to defend my ground troops

OOC: Good Night and good gaming

King Joseph's mouth drops open. "He did WHAT!?" Tim is taken aback, he'd never seen his king fly so quickly from calm to enraged.

King Joseph continues, "If that man starts another war in the Reich, I will personally hunt him down! This was supposed to be a quiet mission. We were going to sneak in there, grab the leaders and get out. Now we have the Elites standing right outside the bunker, fighting with the Ishkabibel forces. How are we supposed to keep this quiet?"

Tim, very sorry to be the bringer of bad news, says, "Sir, I'm sorry, but there's more. We've been told the Ishkabibel forces reached WhiteCastle by submarine. A nuclear submarine. The sub has been hit, and is sinking. It could explode at any minute."

King Joseph looks at Tim with horror in his eyes. "You mean that we could be having a nuclear detenation on our hands? Oh, this is bad." King Joseph is silent for several moments. He closes his eyes and his face contorts with pain. Not physical pain, but emotional anguish. "How could I let this happen? So many people may lose their lives tonight, and all because of me, of my poor decision. 'Oh, Woe is me.'" And Tim could see that he meant it, from the bottom of his heart.

Finally, King Joseph comes back from the depths of his thoughts. "Tell Ishkabibel to IMMEDIATELY withdraw his forces from WhiteCastle. We shall deal with him later. But for now, all we can do is hope, and pray, that Paul succeeds in his task."

King Joseph

OOC: Ishkabibel has given me permission to remove his forces from WhiteCastle.

IC: The Ishkabibel forces recieve word to fall back to Ishkabibel. But Gut's men are to stay with Pual Constantius.

King Joseph

> K! Whos all on before I continue?

///The spirits do straffing missions on the retreating troops. The Elites send out a message.

You've got us committed and so you're going to stay here.

One plane lands letting out a young soldier who takes an officer of high command with him.

Now why are you here?

The officer is handcuffed and injected with the same stuff used to knock out the others.///

>I will only be on for a few minutes. Whoo! This is some good readin'.<

*Queen Surukai slowly pulls herself up after being thrown harshly onto the ground of what seemed to be a new cell. She looked around, seeing a very dim detail of this 'cell' in the small candle light allowed. The walls were rather grimy, with a thick sludge of death on them. It reaked of failed escapes and given up hope. She didn't seem to like it to much.*

"Dammit! Everytime I fall asleep, they move me."

*She sits down on the soddened floor. Her once pretty dressings reduced to nasty, oversized rags.*

"Lovely. After this, I am going shopping for some camo pants, and Sublime shirts. I will change the outlook of style in my nation for this."

*She starts to hum Rivers of Babylon when she looks up to notice a scrawny figure in the corner.*

"Who is that?"

*She stands up and walks toward the figure and it seems it is getting closer as she walks toward it. She soon realizes that it is a dust covered mirror. Then shock hits her that she is scrawny. She suddenly feels starved and curls into a ball by the mirror.*

>NO one has eaten in so long.<

Suddenly the distraction troops of Ishkabibel disperse and follow the rest of their batallion And The Altezzar 5000 flight wing arrives on the seen atacking the remaning elites and spirits descimating them with there missles. and then quickly return to the aircraft carrier that quickly goes back to ishkabibel waters where it is defended by the nations anti aircraft and sea fareing defenders.

A.) You've never seen Dante's Spirit fighters in action. They can't be taken out that easily and in one attack. They attack and blaze across the sky to opposite ends then fly head first at each other narrowly missing one another and dive dropping their bombs and then pull up all in balzing speeds. These Spirits are modified to be much more faster then regular B-2s and much more accurate. So this action is invalid.

B.) Dante's Elites can't be beat in a single attack. Thats like taking out Der Fuhrer's dictatorship in one attack. It just aint happening unless your Red and have G2. That actions also valid.

The Elites and Spirits are still out there and fighting like theres no tomorrow and believe me they've got experience from previous battles. Don't make them show you what they REALLY could do...

[[[Surukais cell]]]

Then eat Dante!

A man in the corner stepped out into the dim light.

You hungary?

He stood there waiting a response.

[[[DAntes room]]]

The little girl huddled in the corner. She hugged her knees smearing the blood on the bottom of her hand on her little pink dress. She sobbed and rocked back forth glancing over at the man in the corner who she thought was dead. The man looked like shitt causing her to shutter and cry louder.

[[[Generals room]]]

Please dont do anything to her!

Right...

PLEASE DONT!

Listen old hag dont push us. When we need her we're going to use her. Dont make us use her for the wrong reasons.

The old lady was so shocked and scared that she couldnt respond. SHe just stood there with tears falling down.

[[[Prison]]]

A soldier smashes his rifle off the bars off the cell.

WAKE UP.

Inferno groans in anger but no one else speaks.

DER FUHRER WAKE UP.

Silence.

DAMN YOU DER FUHRER.

Nothing.

IF YOU DO NOT ANSWER ME I'LL...

Leave her alone...she wants to be left alone.

Atticus spoke from his cell.

Just leave her be.

YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?

You never shot me.

OH! WHY AINT SHE TALKING BACK?

I dont know.

The soldier opens der fuhrers and finds that shes not in there. He runs out of the prison to the generals room.

SIRS DER FUHRER IS GONE.

What? Find her NOW.

HE ran off and told division 4 to look for her.

OOC: took me long enoough to read the posts

IC: INFERNO: o no they didnt know she wasnt in there but how???

[[[Autumns room]]]

Der fuhrer there is so much I would like to tell you but I cant tell you it all. This new government is compromised of those who hated DAnte all along. When he took over Whitecastle they wanted revenge. It was only recently that they were able to get it.

Im afraid for Dante now. Hes in trouble and I can't find him. Curse his bases!

INFERNO: i wonder if people realize that Half of Dantes bases are created by a little kid just drawing lines on a paper!!

INFERNO: i wonder if people realize that Half of Dantes bases are created by a little kid just drawing lines on a paper!!

[[[Whitecastle theatre]]]

Genocide patrols the seas with vengence main cannons gleaming in the moon light.

Elites play chicken with one another while running strafing missions to keep those involved in the nation so they cant recruit other help.

Whitecastles ground forces moving in.

Whitecastles airforce is deployed and staying clear of the Elites.

Whitecastles navy is stationed and ready to assult when needed. Genocide patrolling still.

> Inferno now they dont know that...whyd you go and tell them? HA! No actually there made by me when Im pissass drunk and cant find my foot. YEah and then I grab a pen and paper and try and draw Barney and whatever it turns out to look like becomes my base...

Off of topic:
Yet again, I have missed much, but not too much.

On topic:
"Autumn, let us try and find the others. We can not waste our time here. We must find the others and quickly."

INFERNO: yeah i knew that i watched you make most of your bases hell i supplied the booze!!!

[[[Autumns room]]]

Fine! Follow me.

///She sneaks out from the room. No one is around. She works her way back to Infernos cell.///

Off of topic:
To think, that I thought you made your bases in your sleep. I guess I was not that far off.

On topic:
I follow Autumn closely and stealthly. Being as is, I am a master of stealth and the covert art of warfare.

INFERNO: damn being in here has made me miss some eps of Inuyasha o wait no it didnt!!!

> Damn thats right I think...///whistles///...me drunk? never!

[[[Dantes room]]]

The soldiers walk out of the room and stand outside the door for a bit to see whats going on. Inside the little musters up enough courage to crawl over to the man she thinks is dead and poke him. Dante lets out a painful moan because she poked him in his side that he got shot in a long time back. That area was extra sensitive now.

The little girl jumps back scared.

You're alive?

...

Mister what the matter?

...

Mister wake up please they're scaring me.

...

Mister?

...

She crawls over to his face pressed on the ground and puts her face close to it. She could tell hes breathing and very weakily. She tries and lifts him but he slides out of her grip hitting the ground causing his little blood puddle to splash. He moanded again and slowly opened his eyes.

Off of topic:
That is because someone was that lazy that they had to make their parents move a television into their computer room just so they could watch television while waiting for posts. I still have to hit you for that one.

On topic:
"Autumn, I hope we make it there soon. I hear people coming our way."

[[[Autumn and der Fuhrers treck to the prison]]]

I know I hear them too. Lets hurry.

They make it to tell cells and unlock Inferno. They go to leave when Atticus speaks to them. Autumn unlocks his cell and they take off to look for Surukai who wasnt there when they came down.

OOC: o bring it i cant help it if someone takes so long cuz they erase half their messages and write it over again and again and again and again!!!

IC: When the hell is someone gunna come save me all this gunfire i hear and i havent seen a soul for who knows how long!!

o wait look there is someone now!!!

[[[Dantes room]]]

Dante sees a little girl in front of him and tries to pull himself off the ground but his hands behind his back doesnt help and having broken wrists make it worse and painful. He manages to make it up. HE grins and breathes painfully. This little girl in front of him disturbs him.

Who are you?

WHo're you?

Why?

Why you want to know?

Why you talkin to me?

Why you talking to ME?

He gets angry too fast and gets dizzy. he falls back onto the ground sitting in the corne with his hands behind his back. The soldiers come back in and laugh at Dante.

Oh the sleeping beauty is up!

Dante just sits there without saying anything.

[[[Autumn and der Fuhrers treck to the prison]]]

I know I hear them too. Lets hurry.

They make it to tell cells and unlock Inferno. They go to leave when Atticus speaks to them. Autumn unlocks his cell and they take off to look for Surukai who wasnt there when they came down.

Off of topic:
Inferno, I can not help it that I do not like the way I worded somthing. I am sorry that I can not find the right words to day sometimes, but mocking me does not make the situation any better.

On topic:
I embrace Atticus. It has been a long time since I have seen him and I thought he had died. We begin to work our way to find Surukai.

INFERNO: its nice to see you aaaaa im free yayy!!!

[[[soldiers view]]]

The sound of a group of people is heard by the soldiers and they rush toward it only to find thier prisoners walking around. One of the soldiers open fire on the group causing them all to scatter and run different ways.

INFERNO dives back in his cell the guard comes to kill him INFERNO was waiting for him he takes the guards gun and shoots him with it...

I am seperated from the group as firing behind me is heard. I run down a corridor and into another soldier, who attempts to seize me. However, my speed and reflexes were faster than his and I took him down before he do anything to me.

Chaos floods us. We all flock away from each other. I try and find the rest only to find that I am utterably lost inside the building.

I wonder around watching closely for soldiers and the others.

Off of topic:
I am leaving for the night. Inferno you know what to do.

On topic:
I wonder around still, the dark corridor becoming more darker and darker. I hear the sound of what I think is a group of men laughing.

INFERNO runs arouond to find any of his lost allies since he was friends with Dante for awhile he knows the basic layouts of this base and most others so it should be hard to get lost...

[[[Soldiers point of view]]]

The soldiers hear a gunshot fired and begin to work their way to that area. They constantly watch their backs as they move in the general direction of the firing and since they know where they're going its no problem.

> Night duh fuhrer! See you tomorrow! HEy and I'll TG you later...

> I'll go soon too because you both left...

[[[Dantes room]]]

Dante sits on the ground laughing back at the soldiers.

So...now you think you're tough! I knew you would be worth jack that why you never made it to my Elites...

SHUT UP!

NO! To think that pathetic men like yourselves are running this operation...You're a jo...

A soldier smashed his gun off of Dantes face again.

I SAID SHUT UP!

Dante sat dizziness taking over. He fell onto his side. The little girl started crying again and yelling.

Leave him alone!

SHUT UP YOU!

LEave him alone he didnt do anything.

YOU STUPID GIRL YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING.

He hit the girl really hard causing her to be quiet and start sobbing.

"It's time to move again, we've wasted too much time sitting here. Let's go." With that, Paul Constantius' men, along with those of Gut's, proceed down the hallway. To their great relief, they were not ambushed. As they reach the end of the hallway, they hear gunshots. "Alright men, let's go see what's going on up there."

Paul is the first to enter this new room. He does a quick scan, and finds that there are several dead soldiers on the ground. "Hmm. Whoever caused this isn't far away. But there are 3 different paths we can choose from here. Um.....we'll go to the right."

And so the search for the national leaders continues, but now the trail is hot.

King Joseph

INFERNO hears the sound of alot of men behind him so he decides to get out of there quick..He takes off as fast he can but he did the with out thinking he took too many lefts and rights and now he not sue were he is because navigating through one of Dante's bases require you to think and memorize certain points so you could retrace your path....

INFERNO thinks of trying to go back but it sounds like they are not too far from him. So he decides to try his luck in going forward to see what will happen!!

I hear the sound of many men laughing, somewhere down the next corridor. I slowly creep around the to the corner of the corridor that I am presently in, only to find that no one is down it. I am confused for I know I had heard laughing and I know that it was coming from this corridor.

I hear the laughing again. It sounds right behind me. I whirl around to find myself starring down a dark corridor, no one there. Confused I turn back around glancing over my shoulder to run right into a someone. His muscular arms wrap around me and his hand muffles my yells.

I struggle to break free, but his grip is far too much for me. With all my strength I kick my leg back making contact with his groin. He moans and releases, falling to his knees. I wail around to find Atticus on the ground.

[[[soldiers view]]]

Two soldiers open fire at a man running around. He seems to know kind of where hes going but moving too fast.

[[[Whitecastle Theatre]]]

Genocide still patrolling the seas.

Elites holding air control.

Ground forces now in position and waiting orders.

Airforce maintaining safe distance from Elites.

Navy in position waiting orders.

[[[Hallway]]]

Autumn turns into a practically unseen hallway and walks down it. She turns into one of the rooms at the end of it. The room is lit by candles although nobodys in there.

Damn...I lost them.

She turns to a door at the end of the room and opens it finding herself in the room of Surukai. The soldier turns around and lifts his gun but Autumn was just a bit faster and opened fire on him with a silenced weapon.

She grabbed Surukai and took off back through the way she came.

INFERNO runs down a dark hallway...As he turns one of the dark corners he trips over one of the badly placed bodies....

INFERNO: It must have been one of the forces that just burst their way in here that was just sloppy!!!

[[[Dantes room]]]

Dante sat back up arms still behind his back. He was growing tired of this same old game. He stood up slowly and shakily and started walking to the soldiers.

GET BACK OR WE'LL SHOOT!

HA!...

The soldier fired a shot at Dante. With great speed he hunched foreward flinging his arms foreward. The bullet hit the chains of the cuffs breaking them. Dante ran foreward quickly tackled the soldier to the floor. The other soldier fired at DAnte but he dodged it causing the bullet to hit the otehr soldier killing him.

Missed me...

DAMN YOU!

He fired again this time barely missing Dante. Dante laughed but was stopped when something caught his leg.

Please stop this!

The little girl cried and attached herseld to his leg. She clung on sobbing. The soldier laughed and went to fire at DAnte. Dante kicked his gun out of hand. DAnte fell backward the girl still clinging to his leg crying. The gun landed in a corner settting off a shot. The soldier stood there angry. HE pulled out a shot and injected it into Dantes neck.

YOU ASKED FOR IT.

Dante laughed because he knew what was in that shot for he created it. But that didn't stop his vision from burring and his hearing dull. He starred at the ceiling and watched as it grew darker and darker until he fell asleep.

[[[chasing Inferno]]]

One of the soldiers saw a man fall. They laughed and ran up to him. The held their guns at him.

STAND UP AND DONT TRY ANYTHING STUPID!

INFERNO spins and shoots the two of them in the head but not before the guard shot his gun grazing him in the arm...

INFERNO rolls around onto his back and shoots the two of them in the head but not before the guard shot his gun grazing him in the arm...

OOC: gotta go someone needs the phone!!!

[[[Generals room]]]

TAKE HER AWAY!

Two soldiers carried the old lady away. She kicked and fought but for nothing.

The generals went back to laughing although they clearly heard shots being fired all around the base.

I've got an idea! Lets go get him and that little girl! Come on it'll be fun.

I've got a better idea! Lets get him drinking!

They laughed again at jokes that were just between them. They sent away for Dante and the little girl. The soldiers went into the room and picked up Dante who was still sleeping and carried him away. They grabbed the little girl and covered her mouth and carried her away to bringing them both to the generals room. They threw Dante into a chair and the little girl onto the floor and fetched some brandy to start with.

Off of topic:
I only have time for one post before I must leave.

On topic:
Der Fuhrer and Atticus take down a corridor. Firing seems to be much heavier around this area, and both being without weapons, try to look for somewhere to hide.

Atticus grasps her arm and pulls her toward the wall. He slams into it cuasing a concealed door to open. We find ourselves in a medical facility.

> See ya! Oh and I like the "medical facility" part. Might come in handy...

Paul's men move forward cautiusly. They have no desire to be shot by the people who killed these soldiers. "Ok men, we have to find the leaders. Let's move!" Now they hurry forward, searching for those who killed the guards. Paul risks a yell, it would do no good to be close to the leaders, but not find them, "Der Fuhrer, Surukai, Inferno, Dante! Where are you?"

King Joseph

INFERNO hears the sound of someone yelling...but the way this base is designed it sounds like it is coming from every direction no way to be sure where it came from....

Atticus and I walked around the facility. There was supplies all over the place and disorganized. It looks as if everything that they bought was just thrown in there without anyone really trying to organize it.

We waited in the room for awhile until the coast was clear. Then Atticus and I left the room and made our way around the base looking for anyone.

INFERNO walks around still trying to find anyone from his group...
