A cold breeze rippled across the plains. Though nobody so much as flinched as the man who would change the land stood before them.

"I have often built my Empire outside of the realm of land. Buying land and resources, under handed tactics, and complete monopoly in almost every business function. Now my soldiers with the purchase by Tralse and Matthews, one of my very own puppet corporations, of the people of the land of Corperia I finally have enough soldiers to take this land and make it great!"

The Wormwood Wizard stood before the assembled mass of soldiers. Gesturing towards the sky and himself. The men saluted smartly turning as they marched for their barracks in the deserted land of the Wormwood.

The sky was burning. Jets streaked across the formerly blue void as a hundred men stormed the village firing madly wreaking death and destruction as the tanks rolled forward.

The surviving villagers were marched before the wizard he smiled as each one was moved to the rear where they would be shipped to a mine and used as slave labor until their death.

"General Zi," the wizard pronounced quickly turning to the silent man clad in a green uniform beside him, "what is your suggestion for the troop movement?" The wizard finished quickly his ancient wilted form belying his true nature.

The General contemplated on this a moment his straight black hair glossy his face proud. "We take Likarneyfal the Hannons will not stop us from eliminating one of their opponent clans. Their rule has been weak. Linfield is busy with his wife and Jaygus Lutch can no longer rival us. The ACS had him deposed after that affair with Gwenned."

The wizard smiled to himself once more moving to his helicopter motioning for Zi to join him.

"What of Garfunk? He is the King's brother and as such could rally the country to him."

"Garfunk is detained in Greifsgrad. The government sent him there as Linfield which is most perplexing. Really the only Hannons that are in our way are Kellin and the Queen."

The wizard nodded his mind racing as he thought for a moment.

"The Queen is pregnant. From our spies information she is being treated for a rare disease that could threaten her child. The man treating her is Tezka Hammaral."

The General eyes flew open at the mention of the name.

"The son of Wertiger? I remember him he was a great man. He was the one who ordered the attacks on the Garzivonni family my own men carried them out. I wonder if Tezka will be able to bring loyalists to the cause."

The wizard was quick to object.

"What in the combined Hells do you mean? The man has no leadership background."

"That may be but we will use him as a puppet. To farther our ends. If we can convince him to kill the Queen and her child then Linfield will be unable to rule. So consumed by grief."

The wizard smiled ruefully once more his robes drenching across the seat as they descended onto the tarmac.

"Yes Tezka will do."

In a dark room many men sat planning the course of the coup.....

OOC: Sorry If I didn't say it before. You can RP some people in here that might be at the meeting for the course of the coup.

ooc: mind if i have your MSN or AIM? (don't have yahoo or ICQ) TG me

OOC: Don't have MSN or AOL only YIM. Bump for Camel Eaters.

ooc: Oh god, this will make it so much harder to keep in touch.

OOC: Yeah now let's RP.

A Skorpion Inquisitor (intelligence agent) sat across the plain, several thousand yards away, with a handheld railgun and a ultra high powered microphone attached to the scope (also a videocamera). Hmm... a coup. HQ would definitely be warned...

He uploaded the video of the speech to central command. HQ would decide what to do.

"Is, is that a tail?" The smallish man just looked at the brush wondering what was going on. His uniform designated him as a tech. He'd been put into a platoon with several crazy killing machines. Otherwise known as Jin-Kai Marines. Their eyes glowed bright blue as they turned to look at the orange uniformed tech.

"Why don't you check it out." One said picking him up and throwing him in the bushes. The tech looked back at them hatefully as he walked toward the hiding spot of the agent.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The Wizard nodde to the men seated in the room. Sitting down he turned to hear what their opinions were. His hands resting on the oaken table as he leaned forward intently.....

General Zi was laughing as he watched his soldiers beat the defecter into pulp. "Make sure to put the fear of the gods in him. If he's still alive after this bring him to me."

The General walked down the hall marveling in his complete power over the men wondering when they would first attack Likarneyfal as the door to his apartment opened. Revealing a grand room with curved beams of black wood along the walls supporting his home. He went up the wide staircase his uniform tight fitting showing off his muscle. He opened a mahogany door to his bedroom. Smiling at the beautiful young boy from the village that he had delivered to him. He closed the door.

The Inquistor, quickly and quietly slid one of his 6 inch long claws into the back of the techie's head, killing him instantly and almost bloodlessly. The entire unit would have to be wiped out, silently, and before they could radio back. He then suddenly leapt out of the bushes and threw 2 contact explosive grenades behind the feet of the Jin Kai, to cut off their escape, then, grabbed the nearest marine, and threw him into the group to knock them off their feet.

The Jin-Kai were quick pulling out rifles and firing at the Skorpion. The grenade threw one of them off balance and killed another while one dropped back and radioed the nearest platoons. Two marines were knocked down and the one that had been thrown at them was dazed as well.

OOC: That means nine Jin Kai are firing at the guy. You killed the tech and one Jin Kai and took another out while another is radioing the others. Plus the marines knocked over by the one you threw. Also I need someone to RP the men in the room with the Wizard and someone to RP the boy.

The Skorpion ran sideways, 2 shots deflecting off his armor, quite painful nonetheless, but not life threatening. Oh well. He was screwed anyway, the grenades didn't blow up right. He blew out the radio (and probably the user due to the shock waves) with his railgun, then dropped his railgun and leapt into the squad, clawing, impaling with his tail, kicking and biting. (note: those claws can slice through kevlar and scratch ceramic plate).

The man with the radio watched as his arms were pulled from his body and he fell to the ground unable to breath the pain was so severe. The nine Jin-Kai bowed their heads for the briefest of instants before pulling out their long Kra daggers and plowing into the Skorpion. Three died instantly the other six lasted just a little bit longer burying the Kra daggers into the Inquisitor as their guts fell onto the ground.

A Mechanized Knight topped the clearing distance watching as the Jin Kai fell to the Skorpion he raised his arm and fired a rocket at the lizard man....

The Inquistor, adrenaline pushing him through the pain of daggers, rolled to the side and threw the radio operator into the rocket, trying to knock it aside like a piece of reactive armor does to a HEAT shell. Meanwhile, jerking a dagger out of his stomach (pierced his armor, scales and maybe a few stomach muscles), he ran back to his railgun, and fired at the knight.

ooc: there are another 2 daggers, one in his thigh and one in his arm

The knight shook his head as the data from the blade poured in. He now knew the Inquisitor's genetic structure in and out. Hovering in the air as he fired at the Inquisitor his automated chainguns openening up with bullets fast and hard enough to pierce titanium.

He floated to the side avoiding most of the bullets as he launched another rocket coded to the Inquisitor's genetic makeup...

The Inquistor fired off his last railgun round (led ahead to negate the knight's sidefloating tactics), then just sat on the ground as the rocket plowed into him. Bloody chunks of lizardman fell everywhere. The camera on the railgun though, was still uploading.

The knight fell to the ground as he slammed into the last rounds. He stood and launched a fiber optic scan at the area. He picked up the faintest trace of a cable. He approached with caution his arms held high the guns attached to them ready to fire at a moment's notice....

What the knight discovered were the bloody remains of the poor lizardman. His railgun was still around though, and the ammo packs on him survived the explosion. The railgun was a good weapon, most gun collectors would consider it to be a prized collector's piece.

The knight smiled to himself running another scan across it to check for bombs that could have been planted...

Nope. (sorry, that's about all i can say in response)

He tentatively picked up the weapon trotting back to the barracks before turning it over to his superior officer. The offiver turned it over to scientists and the scientists began dissecting it when they stumbled upon the camera. They grunted quickly destroying it and reconstructed the weapon handing it back over to the knight.

ooc: you missed the microphone lodged in the scope, teehee.

Meanwhile, at central military command, in the mainframe of DurandalX, central military robot of the People's Republic of MassPwnage.

Inquisitor #3403: STATUS:KILLED. ACTIONS: INFORM LEADER.

Meanwhile in the leader's palace.

The Great Leader swore vehemently, then videophoned the cameleaters government. He said nothing, but broadcasted the tapes of the general, and the soldiers, and the coup.

General Zi watched with rapt attention as he and the wizard conversed on the screen. He was furious gripping the sides of the chair as the boy from the village cried in the corner. He got up and breathed slightly realizing his soldiers hadn't lived up to their end of the bargain. He got up and visited with the knight who had killed the Inquisitor. "You are lucky that we have spies in the government who got to this message first."

"I know my Lord General." The knight looked down sighing heavily as the General stood and touched his head.

"You fought well and I thank you for that my warrior present the weapon." The knight pulled forth the railgun nodding as he turned it in his hands before aiming at the knight's head. "Will you die for me?" The knight didn't even flinch as he nodded. The General handed him the railgun nodding as he exited.

The knight raised the weapon and General Zi heard a shot fire. He took out his cellphone and ordered a clean-up squad.

OOC: Now we need people to RP the foreign people talking to the Wizard.

The Great Leader realized that there was no response from the CamelEaters government.

"Damn..."

He called the King's desk directly. If that didn't work, he would use a phone hack to bypass any restrictions. If that didn't work, well, then the country of CamelEaters could go fuck itself. MassPwnage already had a problem on its hands with Ronius Vigilantes, and couldn't divert any troops over to CamelEaters.

Hrall Thundaurwhaugung got a call. Sitting outside the King's office he sighed and raised the phone to his ear. "Hello this is Hrall Thundaurwhaugung. Secretary to the King."

"Good, now get me to the king, this is important.... Ask no questions. Just get me to the king. If you hang up, I will not call again. If you just give the phone to your king, I will personally give you a large sum of money."

The Great Leader was patient in speaking. He could only hope that the secretary would have enough sense to give the phone to the king."

"Sir, the king is unavailable I can take the call though after all I am second in power. What is it you have to say?" Hrall pulled up larger display on his computer tracing the call. "Great Leader Li? Wow this is unexpected."

"Alright then, listen closely. There's a coup about to happen, there are spies in your government. The General Zi said so himself." The Great Leader played the uploaded microphone footage.

"Meanwhile, make sure our little conversation isn't being listened in on, there's something more important I have to show you."

Hrall stared at the phone in amazement. "Li, General Zi has been dead for thirty years." He gasped at the voice on the phone nodding quickly. "Alright what is it you need to show me?"

"A small video clip. I have uploaded it online. I'm sorry for what I am about to do.... but for sake of convienience...."

The secretary's computer's Windows Media Player opened up, and the Inquisitor's tape began to play.

"Now... I suggest you tell your king immediately what is going on."

Hrall nodded getting up and walking towards the door to the King's office his hands bunching up as he opened the door. The King wasn't there he sighed and turned back around hanging up the phone as he dialed a secure number out of the building.

A man picked up a phone that was ringing next to his bed as he ruffled underneath the sheets picking it up and answering in a quick curt voice. Hrall said something quickly in an ancient tongue. The man nodded again.

Another phone rang out in the belly of the city a group of men stopped talking and fighting as their leader answered the phone. He smiled as he gestured outwards with a hand and the men sat down. The man turned his face ashen looking. "We attack soon the General is on the move."

Later that day.... (ooc: what did general Zi do with the railgun?)

The Great Leader sat in the temporary HQ deep within the Pwnage jungles. The Ronians were invading, and all troops were on red alert. Damn... He didn't have enough resources to spare, except....

In the Capital City, on the street besides the King's Palace.

5 humans, 2 hybrids and 1 lizardman stood on the street in trenchcoats.

"Hmm.. we got the orders, right?" asked one of the humans.

"Yea..." The Lizardman pulled out a cellphone and dialed the secretary's number.

They were supposed to be military advisors. Maybe they could assassinate General Zi, so CamelEaters would help with the war with Ronius Vigilantes...

OOC: The railgun was gathered up with the body of the marine that commited suicide.

IC: The General sat before a man. This man was small of stature but great of power and he was losing. The General smirked once more. "So you see Mannzheim the Rear Guard either follows my orders and deposes the King or I ruin your career and your family is shamed for the rest of eternity."

The man nodded putting forward his left arm as the General drew a long dagger and sliced down the other man's arm showing his new servitude to the General.

Three men crept into a room after the conference. They nodded to the Wizard who got up and went with them into the General's apartment. The General rose and bowed to the Wizard who bowed in turn. They sat down across from each other and they made eye contact as the melding process began. Soon both of them thought alike and spoke as one and knew everything about the other. They existed now. There was no General Zi. There was no Wormwood Wizard. There was instead Anthos and soon he would rule.

ooc: merging? weird.

OOC: Yeah they're going to help you with your war.

ooc: actually, screw the war, RV hasn't been around lately, so i can divert more forces to camel eaters, but not many, as the Real ALM needs to be dealt with.

OOC: Really I'm planning that there will be a few battles but Anthos merges with Kellin Hannon (the nephew of the King) and peace reigns. Until we decide to send forces to aid you in your war with The Real ALM.

ooc: explain how merging works anyway?

ooc: It's a combining of two minds.

OOC: Forget it I'm just gonna' drop this plot.
