Aftermath: Terrorist Attack in Roania
Alexander leaned backwards in his chair. He needed a break after the terror of the last few months. Still, life had never been better. He looked at the picture he always kept near him. "I know you're watching out for me, sis. Where ever you are."

He felt a pressure on his shoulder. Kelly was leaning on it. "Still miss her?"
"Always." Alexander sighed.

The council was in session. Edward Black banged his fist on the table. "No! The moratorium remains in place."
Warlock Devian stood up. "I am afraid that it is out of our hands."
"What do you mean, Eldar?" Dean Gray snorted. "Alaitoc is an infected zone. You yourself bought forward the measure that locked it away."
"Yes, but... you left the people in there! Soul crystals, factories." The Eldar stood tall.
"Under your suggestion. And it's not our fault that you decided to have all the Eldar live there." Edmund leaned forward in his chair. "Don't make your trouble ours."
"If that is the will of the council." Devian muttered.
The sound of a chair toppling over filled the room. "It does not matter what the council demands. This is a security matter, and as such my domain." Charles Strike banged the table.

In the ruined city of Alaitoc, poisonous gases filled the air. They seemed to move with an almost human intellect, searching for something...

((That's sort of because you didn't give us a chance to...))
Sara had fallen asleep, clutching her sword in both hands. She was reclined in her office chair, and had apparently worn herself out fighting her immaginary demons. The chair was turned to overlook the splendor of Resi City, the ground illuminated by so many lights that it represented a sea of gold, strangely symbolic of the city's true essence. However, these things have nothing to do with Sara, for she is in her own world now. A world of pure imagination, where she is free to do as she wishes without having her father come after her in a Raven Unit.
She was throughly enjoying herself, dreaming of such frivolous things as holding hands with her departed Xandi, and all the wonderful times she spent with him at Myth U. All of a sudden, in the middle of a scene where the two of them walked on a lovely beach, the sky grew dark and began to cloud over, something that had never happened before. A mysterious "hole" opened in mid-air in front of her, and out of that hole began to climb a person, a girl.
((This is Alex's sister, who you can have relay messages about Rasputin, Alex, or the underworld to Sara if you'd like. Or she could just taunt Sara and leave, your choice. :P ))
((I know...))
Rachel didn't know what was happening. There had been a moment of complete... peace, and then she had been here. "Um, where am I?" She looked down. "Oh my... I can see through myself!"
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 06:58
"Ummm, you're in my head, I think..." said Sara, who then looked around frantically as the scene around her began to melt away, including Xander.
"NO! WAIT! COME BACK!"
She reached out for his fingertips, but they slowly dissapated in her grasp. Sara, still holding out her hand, began to weep.
"I.... I lost him... again..."
"Your head?" She looked on dispassionately. "You can't catch him, you know. He has elsewhere to be." She floated closer. "Sara Resi, right?"
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 07:09
Sara turned and looked at the spectre of the girl.
"Yes... that's me, but who are you? What do you want here?"
"Me? I was someone." Rachel sighed. "I was Princess Rachel Black."
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 07:13
"You... were? What do you mean? You look like someone to me! Waitaminute, you're the sister of Alex, aren't you?"
"I was the sister of Alexander. Now, I am but a spirit." Rachel made a face. "And I'm stuck in here."

21-09-2003, 07:16
"I was the sister of Alexander. Now, I am but a spirit." Rachel made a face. "And I'm stuck in here.""So wait, you're stuck inside of me?! Argh! Can't you get out? You're a spirit, after all!"
"If I could, I would." Rachel snapped. "Since we're stuck here, you can at least be polite." Rachel concentrated. The area around them became a comfortable office. "Much better. Now, I guess it's traditional for me to answer any questions you want."

"If I could, I would." Rachel snapped. "Since we're stuck here, you can at least be polite." Rachel concentrated. The area around them became a comfortable office. "Much better. Now, I guess it's traditional for me to answer any questions you want.""Okaaay, so I'm being possessed by the ghost of the sister of the man I formerly had a crush on. I guess my first question is, how exactly am I supposed to relax?"
"Possessed? Bite your tongue. I'm not possessing you. Now, let me think... ah. How about a nice warm bubble bath. That always relaxed me."
((You should never ask a Roanian a question. They'll always find an answer that means almost nothing))
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 07:33
*sigh*
"Bubble bath? No thanks, not with you here, at least. Listen, what'd you come here for? Maybe I could help you or something."
"Can you get me a new body? No? Then, I have no idea. Except that something very bad is happening. And hey! Don't mind me." Rachel sighed. "I'm not even alive."
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 07:39
"I could get you a new body," Sara says, contemplating the idea, "with very little effort, actually. Y'see, the hard part would be getting your mind data into it. It would take weeks of me being asleep for us to isolate the part of my mind that contained you and extract your data. I 'spose I could do that, but it would obviously be exceptionally risky. But now that we have those herbs...
...anyway, we'll talk about that later. What's this bad stuff you're talking about?"
((Well, aside the bitchiness of this server...))
"I'm not sure. All I know is, someone very evil is loose." Rachel sighed again. "You can't get me a new body. That would require my old body, which was destroyed. They didn't bury it. It didn't exist to be buried." Rachel opened a book from the shelf. "So, that guy was Xander, was he? Ex-boyfriend?"
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 07:51
"Well, you asked if I could get you a body, not your old one. As for Xandi, that's... none of your business."
"Tsk. If I was a mean ghost, I'd say something like 'He waits for you to join him' or something." She giggled. "And I don't trust you not to put me in a man's body."
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 08:27
"Awww... c'mon!" Sara said with a smile, "A man's body would be better than being dead, after all. So, who's this 'he' anyway? I mean, we killed rasputin, it can't be him!"
Rachel smiled. "I have no idea. Really. All I know is that whatever it is, its going for Soul Crystals."
The Resi Corporation
21-09-2003, 08:36
Rachel smiled. "I have no idea. Really. All I know is that whatever it is, its going for Soul Crystals.""Eh? Soul Crystals? Is that like the jewelery that people from the 70's wore?"
"Um... no." Great. Just great. "Don't worry. But I have to get to Roania."

A lone cloaked figure stood near Kelly watching her carefuly not making a sound.
"You're bright. I like that.""Double argh! Can't you just... go inhabit a robot or something? I mean, why me?"
"I don't know. I swear. It's not my fault." Rachel looked around. "A robot or something... heh. Considering how you want to live, I might as well be." There was a faintly accusing tone.

Alexander snapped to attention. He could sense... well, he didn't know what he sensed. "Sorry, Kelly. I have to go check something..." He ran outside.
Kelly watched him. "Men."
He's not just a man!
Kelly grimaced. "Thank you, Dek." She wondered if one of the Roanians could replace her AI.

"Want to bet?" Rachel concentrated."ARGH!" Sara screamed in pain, "Get... outta me!"
She then shot a beam from her arm directly at Rachel.
"You're forgetting that not only am I your opponent," Sara said, deviously, "I am also the battlefeild. Everything inside my mind is ultimately my bitch."
Rachel said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Sara. But I am immortal, and will stay strong, while you will tire. Please, do as I request." She concentrated harder, becoming diffuse in order to avoid the blast. "Any blasts you fire will harm us both." The cloud surrounded Sara and began to enter her...

If you were reading my thoughts, you'd know that I am immortal, as is my strength."
Sara dissapates, leaving the cloud behind, and appears behind Rachel, delivering a kick to the back of her head.
"Ouch!" Rachel cried. "Maybe I can't win... but neither can you. I can show you what this world will become if you don't go to Roania..."
Images played out in front of her, of a world populated only by the dead or demonic. Above, huge winged creatures searched for the living, to warp and destroy. A world of Chaos.
((Rachel doesn't really know, but she's guessing.))

The figure started to walk over to Kelly and she decloaked and says to her "Captin. The Elites are disbanding. I sugjest you keep your armor though. Also I will come when the time is right."

Dekker stood over the broken body of his opponent, his survival knife's blade crimson with his blood. The traitor Inquisitor lay in a pool of his own blood, crimson fluid dripping from a slash across his now-pale throat. His battered helmet lay nearby, knocked from his head by a powerful palm strike to the chin from Dekker. Dekker now sported a long gash across his right arm, blood trickling down his arm and off of his hand. It was the price he paid to land that palm strike, the rest was easy. He wiped the blade of his knife across his right pant leg, before sliding the wicked-looking blade back into its sheath. Dekker picked the Inquisitor's sword up from the earth where it had fallen. "The Inquisition will want this back." He says to himself as he begins to walk away from the building.

*Sara presses a button on her desk*
"Dawn! Look, I need to go back to Roania. Don't ask why or tell my father that I left, and I'll leave you in charge while I'm gone."
The intercom buzzes, and Dawn Kradii responds, "Right, we've got a deal."
Victorious shouts can be heard coming from the directions of Dawn's office after she shuts the intercom off.
"That's what I love about power-hungry people," Sara said with a smile, "They're surprisingly easy to control. The only bad thing is I may have to take my power back by holding her at the point of my plasma arm, but that'll just make it all more interesting, won't it?"
Sara then walks out the door of her office towards the roof of Resi Tower, where a spaceplane awaits.
Okay. How long will it take us to get there? And be careful. The enemy might try to stop us.

A howl came from outside. Alexander grimaced. "I hate winter."
"Don't worry, Alex. There has never been a recorded case of a wolf killing a human. Even a big ugly one like that."
"So what you're saying is that the wolves could just kill tons of people, including the people who would make the records?"
"I wish you hadn't said that. Are there any weapons on this thing?"
"Um, no." Alexander gave a weak smile. "Since we're about to die, I'd just like to say this one last time. I love you, Kelly."

The NP Pulsar quickly transforms into Battloid mode and cocks it's twin gun pods.
"I think what just saved us might kill us," Dekker says "Been nice knowing you bitch."
((Earlier Kelly screwed with his systems))
"Wait a second..." Alexander rummaged around for a few minutes and pulled out a ring.
"What? What is that going to do?" Kelly asked.
"Well, first..." He shoots Dekker with it. "It's going to allow me to concentrate, and also keep you from feeling pain if we do get killed."
And then he shoots an ion beam at the Battloid. "And second, it's going to put an end to that nuisance."

"A ride would be nice, yes." Alexander said.
"Dekker? How would you like to be reprogrammed into a woman? I'll find a way." Kelly said.

"Can't say or it equales death for us all," the voice says
((I still don't got a name for the girl. lol))
"Right." Alexander looked at her. "And why are you here?"
"That's none of your business. How like a man. Asking her questions after she saved both our lives." Kelly snorted.

"And the fact that an AI saved your life is even more embaresing," the voice says
"Yeah... what?" Alexander and Kelly said together.

"Yup I'm a AI. Actualy Dekker's sister AI," the voice says with a laugh "And I'm the pilot," Another voice says
Maker made two Dekkers? NOOOOO!Alexander's AI moaned.
"Well, pleased to meet you. What does bring you to Roania?" Alexander asked politely. Kelly moved next to him.

"The Captin. And I heard that you pathetic AI," Alice, Dekker's sister says
Pathetic? I have more processing power in one chip than you do in that entire suit!
"What about me?" Kelly asked. Alexander looked slightly nervous.

"I have the power of 15 NP Carriers. Which are move powerful than the basic Phalanix Super Carrier," Alice says. "Anyways she may be a rebel target," the pilot says
I'll take you on any day!
Alexander winces. "My AI has been spending too much time near Dekker."
Kelly looked concerned. "There are still rebels?"
"Whether there are or are not is no concern. She is safer in Roania. And if she's going with you, regardless of the fact that hundreds of soldiers stand by to guard her, then so am I."
"After we deal with Alaitoc, of course." Kelly smiled. Alexander shrank back.

"Her bro...I mean her friend says that she is still a target," the pilot says
((Damn. I've just been informed I have to leave to prepare for my trip. I'll see if I can get on this afternoon, but I doubt it. If not, c'ya monday.))
"What? Her friend? Kelly..." Alexander said, softly.
"I'm sorry, Alex. If I have to go, then I have to go. Don't worry. I'l be back."

Two Dire Wolves leap out of the snow.

"WHAT THE...?" Sara exclaims, "How'd they get past the sensor array?"
She aims the spaceplane's machine guns at the wolves, and fires away.
The two intelligent creatures leap at the Space Plane. Their jaws make considerable gashes in the armor. That's not going to work. You'll need a direct hit.

Sara transforms her arms and shoots a couple of holes towards the wolves through the shell of the spaceplane.
The creatures run off, whimpering. Don't get excited. They generally hunt in packs of 10.

Roanian Dire Wolves, during summer

"You should've told me that earlier..." Sara mutters, "Anyway, where to now? We've got a spaceplane with a hole in it in the middle of what appears to be artic tundra. Where the hell do we go from here?"
Fort Derricks. To the south. How fast can you run? Loud howls began to the north.

Fort Derricks. To the south. How fast can you run? Loud howls began to the north.Sara changes into a white catgirl, fully equipped with a white winter parka with paw prints on it.
"About 40 mph, in this stuff, probably 30. How far is it?"
20 miles. And... I can sense something... wrong with these wolves.

20 miles. And... I can sense something... wrong with these wolves."You mean besides the fact that they scare easily?"
Sara jumps out the hole she made in the craft, and runs due south through the driving snow, shooting at anything that growls or moves.
No, they seem smarter. I can pick up something... oh my god. They're gathering up all of the packs in the mountains. We have to get to Fort Derricks. Something is very wrong here.
((At least she won't miss Fort Derricks))

Darquis Family manor

26-09-2003, 08:07
"Wrond? You mean besides the fact that I'm in a country I practically vowed never to go to again, in the snow, running from a bunch of sentient man-eating wolves? Yeah, I'd say there are a couple of things wrond here..."
Sara keeps on runnin'.
Don't blame me! I never wanted this. Hmph. Always blame the dead, is it?
All of a sudden, massive laser blasts fire upon the unseen pursuers. An armored figure walks out of the snow. "Hold it. You are trespassing on Darquis family lands. Return to Fort Dericks, citizen."

"Citizen? I'm not... oh, er, I mean, sorry sir, I'll get right to it."
Sara trots off in the direction of the fort.
"Wait... It's too far. Come with me to the castle." He moves forward. "Besides, the duke would want to meet you." Not giving her a chance to argue, he charges forward and grabs her, jetpack activating. And not a moment too soon. The pack lunges at the spot Sara had been standing on.
The Resi Corporation
26-09-2003, 08:25
"YAAAAAAA!" Sara screams, as the jetpack lifts off.
Several questions race to her mind, "Who's the duke? What does he want from me? And why does he think I, a catperson, am a Roanian?"
"Here we are. Darquis Castle." The man landed on a tower. "Well, don't just stand there. You'll catch your death of cold. Heh. I'm in a HOPLITE1 armored suit, and I'm freezing. Now, you may come inside, and you can tell Duke Darquis what a catperson is doing here."

When she turns to look up tat the soldier again, she is a very fair-skinned young girl.
"Catperson? Um... what are you talking about?"
"So any ways where are you going?" the pilot asks her voice the calm and friendly kind
"Um, Alex, dear? Please go to the back of the dropship." Grumbling, Alex walked off. "Kate, is my br... um... friend, all right? Is he here?"
(Kate's a good name for her, don't you think?)
Sara looks down, and places both of her hands inside her parka. When she turns to look up tat the soldier again, she is a very fair-skinned young girl.

"Don't hurt him! He didn't do anything wrong, he saved my life!"

Which means that the enemy will have trouble controlling them

(OOC: When should I bring Tiburon in the picture to fight the CTFF?)
((Are you trying to start a war? Your entire army in Roanian territory? The scenario is quite clear, I should think))
Around them, several Dire Wolves began to gather... and so do nastier things...
(The CTFF isn't a part of Tiburon at all... when should Tiburon's forces come into this RP?)
Capt. Narikokoro: "Yeah, especially with these red eyes looking at you everywhere you go. Ya know, I've actually heard that around here there are these things called Death Wolves or whatever that can rip up a steel frame in minutes... good thing CTFF vehicles are made of titanium, right?"

((Ah, I was wondering about that. Quite frankly, the Roanian legion will be pleased to send in the Phantom Machines...))
More Dire Wolves start to gather. Behind them, nastier creatures can be seen to move.
Jintaro: "You know what? I don't care. This is waaaaay to creepy for me. All units, shoot anything and everything that doesn't have a CTFF radio signal on it! Fire! I don't care what you shoot at! Just shoot!"
(They just sealed their own fate, right? And what are the Phantom Machines?)
((Roanian Specialty Mechs. I'll track down the stats.
And yes, they did.))
The Dire Wolves leap down and tear at the CTFF tanks. Behind the wolves...

A massive bird swoops down from the sky.
(Cool. And I thought as much, that they would have died. Should I kill off the mecha as well?)
"Fire! Fire! Fire, damnit, fire! Kill all of these pe-..."
His word was cut short. As was he.
((Now there's a reason for the Tallgeese to come in :P ))
To find out what happened to the CTFF... or:
<Transmission from Roania to Tiburon>
We have found several of your tanks and vehicles within our borders. Please explain.
<Transmission from Tiburon to Roania>
We do not have any forces within Roanian borders. However, to invsetigate, we will, with Roanian permission, send the Wing Gundam.
The CTFF isn't a part of Tiburon at all...
OOC: I know that, and you know that, but the Roanians neither know or care...
IC: "Do so."
OOC: That's not exactly the best foreign policy...
IC: Right. Transmission out.
"Gundam 001, move out!"
Nova: "Right. Let's goooo! (like in those anime shows)"
OOC: Saves trouble in the long run. Besides, Leopold is in charge of foriegn policy, and as we've seen, he's not the nicest of human beings...
OOC: Well, I can definately see where accountability is not placed...
IC: "This is Wing 01. Moving towards Roanian airspace. (To the Roanians) Are there any markings that would have distinguished the fighters involved?"
OOC: The man has his own army! You want to tell him he's doing a poor job?
IC: "Um... not enough was left over to reveal any distinguishing remarks. Be on your guard. The creatures of the mountains are acting very strange... well, stranger than usual. We're preparing a legion force, but that takes time."
OOC: Er... no... *frightened*
IC: "All right then. What kind of animals are involved?"
OOC: Didn't think so.
IC: "Dire Wolves, from the claw and tooth marks. And... that's odd, those birds should hav... what the... they dare come fo- all troops>;loskfopjoiO
OOC: *wince*
IC: Hello? Hello? This is Wing 01, Roania, do you copy?
(To Gundam Main Base) This is Nova. I've lost Roania signal, but my receiver is calibrated perfectly!
(Gundam Main Base) What????? What's going on down there?
OOC2: I'll be on for about 15 more mins. Sorry. ;_;
Roania Northern ATC had been destroyed. Hundreds of bodies lay around the place. Airplanes and buildings had been destroyed. But of the creatures that had done this crime, nothing was to be seen.
The Wing Gundam landed, with Nova watching on.
"What happened here? What is going on? I don't understand...
...
...
...
Wing 01, moving out."
Frederick had found a calm cave to hide in. He stood guard while Sara slept, to the lulling sound of Rachel giggling like hell.
_______________
Alexander, Kate and Kelly were on their way to Alaitoc.
______________
Nova was about to learn what had happened to the CTFF...
OOC: But unlike the CTFF, the Wing Gundam is not to be taken lightly...
OOC: I know. Just don't take the Dire Wolves lightly.
OOC: Well, the CTFF learned the hard way...
IC: <Scanning for soil disturbances>
The report came out like an abstract... there were lines and prints everywhere. "Hm. Is this a mountain or a freeway?"
There seems to be a lot of recent activity... I wonder...
Red eyes watched from the darkness...
OOC: All right... I'll have to leave in 5 to 10 minutes... sorry...
IC: "Gundam Main Base, can you send the info known on "Dire Wolf"?"
<Processing>
Nova: "Holy [expletive deleted]! That's a Dire Wolf? In that case, I'm better in the air..."
And at that exact moment, a pack leapt out and attacked him. :twisted:
OOC: Thanks. :lol:
IC: Um... uh... Nova used the Wing Gundam to throw off the wolves initially by making lots and lots of sharp turns, and then flew into the air, as planned. "@#$%^&* wolves!!!!!"
OOC: Sorry, but I g2g. See ya later! ^_^
OOC: Don't mention it. :twisted:
IC: The pack ran off.

Would if I could, but I can't so I won't.
"Well, if you say so... but it's across the mountains." Frederick tried to find something to get her to change her mind. "And it's getting dark, and the creatures will become so much more active..."
Which means that the enemy will have trouble controlling them"Which is exactly why they won't look there," Sara says, "they wouldn't think that we were smart enough to choose such a spot to evade them, 'cause it would be too risky to us. But you're strong enough and brave enough to fight away those evil monsters, I mean you *did* save me from a pack of them."
She bats her eyelashes and smiles cutely.

The grey sludged started to form around Kate and began taking the shaped of the NP Royal Elite armor. "Now who's sorry ass is gona be kicked?" Kate asks as the rest of the armor hardens.
((It is almost like the Elite's armor but thiner and can take twice the beating))

Frederick gives up. He knows when he's fighting a losing battle. "Well, if that's what you want, Eva."
Sara, I think that's a little *too* in character.

Why are you always surrounded by women who want to kill you?Alexander's AI [Need a name, really need a name] asked him.
"I have no idea. As to your question, Kate, some thing's gone wrong in the town of Alaitoc, and Kelly convinced me to look into it."
Kelly turned bright red.

Sara, I think that's a little *too* in character.Well, what do you suggest I should've done?
Sara edges close to Frederick, then wraps her arms around him and gives him a hug.
"I knew you'd see it my way." she said with a grin.
"Um..." Frederick tries to extricate himself from the mess he landed himself in. "It will be dangerous. There will be wolves, and demons, and rivers, and..." then he just gives up. "As pleasant as that is, I need my hands free to drive."
Tell me, are you using him? Or do you feel something for him. I'm curious.Rachel's voice had barely controlled mirth.

"Aww, fine then." Sara un-hugs him and mock-pouts.
I'm just using him, for now anyways. Why do you want to know?
Just curious. :o
"Right, so, Alaitoc, was it?" Frederick pulls the lever and the speeder lifts up, and into the darkness.
Red eyes follow.
The Resi Corporation
28-09-2003, 09:18
"Yup, to Alaitoc!"
Sara doesn't notice the red eyes, or even sense any presence in the slightest.
Take a nap. I want to speak to you properly.
Frederick looks wary. "Strange..." He speeds up slightly, but refuses to divulge his reason for doing so.

Frederick looks wary. "Strange..." He speeds up slightly, but refuses to divulge his reason for doing so.Sara leans forward against Frederick's back and snuggles up in her parka, falling asleep almost instantly. Her circlet sets itself on auto.
The world of her dream opens up around her, strange shapes and creatures fly past in all directions, and gravity seems to apply while not applying. In front of her "stands" Rachel.
"Okay, now that I'm here, what do you want?" Sara asks impatiently, "I need to stay as alert as possible, y'know."
"Sorry, but something's wrong. We're being watched. What are the mechanical parts of you made of? I'd prefer not to die twice." Rachel looked apologetic. "You can't feel it? Something evil is watching."

Something evil is watching.""Nope, I ain't feeling any evil, sorry." Sara said, "As for the mechanical parts of me, they're all contained in my circlet. See, nanomachines inside of it deconstruct my body or parts of it and construct robotic appendages in their place. I suppose that those appendages are made of titanium, though I've never really bothered to find out. Why d'you ask?"
"Because Dire Wolves can rip through steel as easily as we can rip through paper." Rachel said seriously.

Frederick shook Sara gently. "Um, Eva? You need to wake up."

Frederick shook Sara gently. "Um, Eva? You need to wake up."Sara mumbles a little, then gets up and pretends to just realize that she was just sleeping.
"Wha, I was sleeping? *yawn* I guess I'm just tired after running all that ways. Where are we?"
"In trouble. Look." Frederick nodded his head towards the window. Outside were several pairs of glowing red eyes.

"Um... I'm hoping so." Frederick said. "I'm sorry. Under no circumstances leave this vehicle." He pulled out his RA-87 and set it to scorch. Then he turned it on and speeded off. The sound of running feet followed him.
Sara, in your opinion, which is more important, your disguise or our lives... or rather, your life and Frederick's life?

Probably the lives of all involved. I may "use" people, but that doesn't mean I don't care if they die. However, there are ways to maintain both...

"So what did you have to do Captin?" Kate asks as she smirks
I bet that Kate will go homicidal and kill everything.
WHAT!?!?!?!
Meanwhile, more CTFF Forest Walkers entered the mountain range area. "This is Commander Niolan. All units, move out! Find the traitors and execute the ones who destroyed the other CTFF mechs!"

It seems to be a curse. You do realise if she touches Kelly, you go too, Dekker. And if she touches Prince Alexander, she , and you Alice, get blown up.

Meanwhile, more CTFF Forest Walkers entered the mountain range area. "This is Commander Niolan. All units, move out! Find the traitors and execute the ones who destroyed the other CTFF mechs!"
Several Roanian Legion Phantom Machines open fire on the CTFF. "This is Roanian territory! Please leave immediately! Proceed at your own risk." Several hundred soldiers in HOPLITE1 battle armor appear around the mechs, carrying portable ion cannons and devestators.
"EEK!" Sara ducked her head.
Probably the lives of all involved. I may "use" people, but that doesn't mean I don't care if they die. However, there are ways to maintain both...
Right.
Frederick slows the speeder. In front of them are dozens of glowing red eyes.

"Let's go." Alexander pulled out a map. "Alaitoc is to the north somewhere."
"Kate, why are you here? Is New Phalanix really that boring that you have to come down to Roania?" Kelly asked, smirking.
