Henir's Time and Space

As the others began to do their own thing to rest, Glaive on the other hand was off at one of the cube's corners... staring off into the void. He seemed to be contemplative of something despite it normally would be hidden by his masked. It was mostly his lone sigh that showed he was thinking of anything as he began to take... sit down with his legs crossed. As he sat down he began to surprisingly take off his mask as he just... watched the endless void. The right side of his face, the side that has his eye hidden by the mask mainly, is still hidden from the side by his hair.

When Isaac offered a hand Dante groaned a little as he stood up and took it.

"Well at least you have common courtesy AND a good point." Dante said as he prepared to go. Surprisingly though Dante let go of Isaac's hand, and with a quick dash Dante disappeared in a quick blur before suddenly reappearing a good 5-6 meters away.

As they finally got their breakfast, Chung had unsurprisingly... gotten the same. A simple meal of bread, jerky, an orange, water, and... some vitamins of some sort. He's had this same meal for the past few days and despite him looking relatively the same. He does also look a slight bit... malnourished. Chung as an old Guardian of Hamel, has always been on this diet outside of a a good handful of occasions. However most of the time he's doing things he'd normally do, he always falls back on this diet.

As the Tenno female dived down with her pistols, she quickly saw how Jack was blocking and countering against each bullet fired from her twin pistols she reacted by holstering her pistols before taking out her Skana sword. With it out she quickly spun her body around so that she is diving head first towards him while she begun to... twirl like a top down at him, readying her blade she quickly landed and did a quick somersault as she performed a slash right Jack's legs before standing up to prepare a stab at his back.

As the training simulation began, Raven was already watching with intent. His eyes scanning the entire simulated room, all that was in it, including Lily herself. What he saw really interested him as he crossed his arms. He was truly eager to view her training and testing of her new armor upgrades.

"oookay Tori. i'll see you up stairs. that's where i saw the people on the news living last. so see you there." Sans said as he opens the door, as he stepped out of the door he then began making his way upstairs to the door he last saw the green haired girl and winged boy go to last.

The goat monster followed the blue robbed skeleton towards their neighbor´s appartment, she decided to have some conversation as they moved "I remember seeing a woman and a boy, their clothing made them look like something from this world´s myths and legends, with those robes, they had this air of royalty, but by how childish the winged boy acted, it could be anything" she commented to Sans

"To be honest, I don't have a clue as to what happened in Detroit; I was only there during the aftermath." Nitori confessed; she was only able to retrieve X because of... it was a long story that Nitori was happy to fill in for X.

"After what happened a couple months ago with the Devourer, Zero and I went on separate ways; me trying to repair whatever damages there were on Gensokyo and Zero hunting Mavericks around the world. We still kept in touch though; in between his missions and holidays. He recently sent me a Christmas greeting with his team until the transmission was rather forcefully cut down."

"You know EVE, right? I had her track the location where the transmission came from. EVE located it as Munich, Germany, so I teleported to the near vicinity of the city to find it in ruins. Apparently the Mavericks launched a sneak attack against Zero's team, and the town sustained collateral damage to the point of having a good part of it become ruined. I eventually found Zero, but not without encountering the Maverick who must've been the perpetrator of the ambush. I managed to escape back to my house with Zero, although it seemed like the Maverick Hunters were not so happy with me taking Zero like that without telling them."

"According to Zero who woke up afterwards, I apparently have to report to the leader of the Maverick Hunter about the incident. So I had a bit of a... run-in... with the leader who calls himself Sigmas? Signus? I don't know. But that's not very important right now."

"While at the headquarter, Zero received a distress call that Detroit took heavy damage by Maverick attack. He was needed there, but I feared for his safety so I went with him. There, we found you, and extracted you to safety here. Any questions?"

"I do too. There are so many more cities around the world I would like to explore..." Kongou revealed her lust for travelling and sightseeing. All her life she was housed in the naval base; any time she was able to go around the world was for sorties and expeditions and thus she was not able to relax and look around at all. "But I can't abandon my post. My Teitoku awaits me, and I need to find a way to get back to my naval base."

X listened to everything that happened... It... sounded like Nitori didn't have a very good day herself either, and neither did Zero. It... still quite a story that made X think about something, and yet he only had one question that burned at his curiosity. A simple question, but a rather important question nonetheless. With his single question in mind he looked up at Nitori and asked.

"Where's Zero right now?" X asked as he then waited patiently for an answer.



Barcelona | Spain

Hearing Kongou's lust and desire to travel and see the world being unfulfilled due to her status and role of her ship... or fleet... or whatever it was, Ciel sighed as he continued walking with her. He looked contemplative as he kept trying to think of something to help Kongou... But nothing much came up.

"Damn... Kinda know how you feel. I also want to explore this world and see the sights. I mean I used to see the sights of my world, but this world is so new and... pretty damn nice. Unfortunately I'm stuck serving a bratty half-pint of an exiled Demon Queen as we both look for a way back to her kingdom in my world so she can retake the throne." Ciel spoke as he walked with his hands in his coat pocket. After he finished speaking they just... walked to their next location... as they did however Ciel stopped as he looked over his shoulder for a minute...

... Someone was following them. He could feel it. An... odd sort of feeling came from the crowd constantly for the past 10 or so minutes. Ciel scanned the crowd until he saw it... A blur of white hair... black and purple coat... he looked over his shoulder a couple times and saw these same colors. Seeing this he grabbed Kongou by the hand and quickly pulled her into a nearby alleyway that was clearly out of sight and empty of people. In fact Ciel continued to pull her down the alley, taking a few more turns into other alleyways until they were very clearly out of sight of anyone else. Once this happened he let go and turned to face Kongou.

"Sssh... Remain quiet..." Ciel spoke in a quiet and calm tone, his facial expression unchanged from his normally calm, tired, and usually grumpy look as he scanned the area for anyone. The way he was acting and sounding did not show any signs of danger or caution... so only one could assume the most farfetched of ideas to be going through Ciel's mind.



Washington D.C. | San's and Toriel's Apartment

Sans listened to Toriel's description of what their neighbors looked like, but all Sans did was shrug as he reached to knock on the door.

"eh who knows? maybe they are just rich and like to dress fancy or somethin." He said as he began knocking on the door to Palutena's apartment as the sound of a young kids voice asking

"Who's there?"

Could be heard. Upon hearing this young man or whoever it was asking this, Sans just had to...

"ice cream." Sans spoke...

"Uh... Ice Cream who...?"

"ice cream if you don't let us in!" Sans clearly joked as he chuckled a bit. Upon hearing this joke, the door opened revealing the young angel Pit.


"Oh ha ha very fun-" Pit spoke as he then took notice of the short skeleton in a jacket... and... goat... woman... holding a pie? Seeing this and remembering the earlier attacked he quickly shut the door, but he didn't slam it.
Pit then called out for Palutena. "Palutena! Some... people are at the door! One of them has a pie!" Pit called out as Sans could be heard speaking on the other side of the door.


"yep! and the pie sure is a-pie-tizing." Sans joked again... which prompted Pit to yell...

"And one of them is telling horrible jokes!" Yelled Pit...


Sans then turned to Toriel and said.

"wow. that kid sure doesn't have a good sense of humor."

Toriel couldn´t help but giggle at the skeleton´s pun as the angel boy opened the door "Oh hello there we are your new neighb-" she stopped her greeting as the kid slammed the door "Um.. did we have something wrong or had an odd scent?" she asked and even tried to smell her arm. Then came the kid´s yelling to who the goat monster thought was the green haired woman and laughed at the mention of her pie .

The goat monster then shared some giggles with Sans as they waited for whatever was coming through the door "At least they seem friendly, they didn´t ignore us" she spoke with a hopeful tone.

Henir's Time and Space

After about an hour long nap, John woke from his slumber and suddenly rose to a stand. The rest he had certainly left him feeling refreshed, but he could wait no longer. It was time for him to finish up what needed to be done. Soon after coming to a stand, John walked over to the now maskless Glaive and softly cleared his throat to get his attention.

"I'm ready to continue.", John calmly said to Glaive.





Firestorm Citadel

When Takoizu saw that she had the Trojan on the defensive, she simply smiled before speaking out to it.

"What, are you afraid of me now?", Takoizu teased the large Trojan.

Meanwhile, Takoizu was thinking to herself on the best way to destroy the Trojan. She had very many different methods to use, but the problem was simply choosing one out of so many.





Santa Cruz

Isaac simply gave a light frown as Dante ran off, but didn't really care enough to get angry. Right now, he had more important things in mind, like saving any survivors that might be out there. Wasting little time, Isaac took to the skies, shooting off to the northeast.

As Isaac flew overhead, he carefully scanned the streets for survivors. What he was primarily looking for was large concentrations of the undead, for if there was somebody alive in the area, the undead would surely be attracted to them.

Jack could easily see the female Tenno surge towards him, and while she was fast, his reaction time allowed him plenty of time to slam one of his katanas into the ground to block the swipe at his legs. As the Tenno rose to stab him in the back, Jack spun to the left as he raised his other katana, slightly angling it in the direction of the Skana's curve, allowing minimal resistance as the blade curved to the side and just barely missed Jack's stomach.

As soon as Lily stepped out into the town square, she was gretted by a hail of plasmafire from the ground and energy beams from the sniper's tower in the center of the town square. Lily lunged to the right as her thrusters activated, accelerating her lunge and placing her behind a pillar holding up the front of a building. What Lily didn't know was that there were multiple brutes in the area, each one having the intent to either kill her or do much worse to her. Immediately after hiding behind the pillar, she was greeted to an angry Brute, who swung its Type-25 Carbine Spiker down towards her face.

Reacting quickly, Lily boost-dodged to the right, ending up next to the Brute's left flank as its attack crashed into the stone pillar Lily was previously at. Lily quickly pulled out her M6D and opened fire at the Brute's head. The first shot exploded against the Brute's helmet, damaging it slightly, the second caused a large fracture to form across the side of the helmet, and the third shattered the impact site as tiny chunks of metal pierced through the brute's skin. The Brute let out an angry roar as it attempted to backhand Lily with its left hand, but Lily suddenly jumped over the attack and sailed over the Brute as she performed a flip, leaving her upside down in the air over the Brute. As that happened, she placed two more shots into the brute's skull, this time killing the Brute in a shower of skull fragments and alien blood.

Lily landed right behind the fallen Brute and sprinted to the next pillar as a hail of plasma nearly peppered her armor with burns. The rest of the brutes in the area now knew Lily was in the area and gave chase to the female SPARTAN, closing in on her position.

Mike kind of hesitated on giving Vala the knowledge he had, seeing how him simply bringing up the Neo-Yakuza had such an effect on her, but he did so regardless.

"Heh, if you feel that way about the Neo-Yakuza, then I'm almost afraid of telling you that there's something worse out there.", Mike said to Vala.

Henir's Time and Space

As Glaive sat there at the edge of the cube platform they were all on... he didn't turn to face John as the Spartan told him he was ready. Instead Glaive let out a sigh as he put on his mask before standing up. With his mask back on he turned to face the others. With his blank stare he spoke.

"I see. You do appear to be well rested even though you had slept for what would be an hour. I can tell that the energies of Henir's Time and Space have rejuvenated your body and mind. That pleases me. The same could also be said for the others... Speaking of which... Are you two ready?" Glaive spoke as he then turned to Renamon and Nera.



Santa Cruz

As Isaac searched the sky, Dante searched the ground. Using his demonic abilities to travel the area as fast as he could. He was practically teleporting from one lamp post to another as he looked and continued to scan the area for anyone. From what he saw... Not much of anyone was down here until he remembered something.

He remembered a Cat-person... thing coming in to help fight back against the undead. With that in mind he began heading towards that location in hopes the... cat-person was there.



Washington D.C. | Palutena's Apartment

As Sans and Toriel waited outside the door, on the inside Palutena and Julius had gathered in the living room. Pit looked a bit cautious due to the fact that there is a skeleton and... goat... woman... monster outside the door. It was clear that Pit was still on full alert from the events that happened out on the street earlier. Palutena however was remaining calm, and so was Julius.

"Now Pit, don't be too alarmed. Just stay calm okay? Now tell me... do the two seem hostile in any way?" Asked the Goddess

"I... uh... No. No they don't... one told a joke and the other was holding a pie. So... I'm just confused."

"Hmm... Well there isn't any true way to tell without confronting them and asking-" Palutena spoke as she was cut off by Julius who was already opening the door.

It was clear that the Vampire Hunter was thinking well ahead of Palutena as he opened the door, but only halfway. Upon opening the door he saw the... short skeleton dressed in blue jacket, black shorts, and some simple sneakers that had untied shoelaces. Towering above him was a... Goat Woman monster of some sort... They do not seem hostile at all, in fact what Sans said and did kinda made Julius relieved.


As Julius opened the door and poked his head out, Sans looked up and winked.
"sup?" Sans spoke with that big grin he has at almost all times.

Julius simply looked confused then chuckled a bit as he opened the door completely.
"Well... Hello there. I assume you must be... residents of this place?" Julius replied as he then, with his now more energized and... more revitalized senses he was able to smell the sweet butterscotch pie that Toriel had. It... smelled really good. This prompted Julius to ask..

"Is that pie butterscotch?" He asked as he eyed the pie... It was clear he enjoyed the smell of it.



Streets of London | Jack's current Location

The mysterious woman was a bit surprised with Jack's reaction time. It was clear that he was capable of keeping up with if not straight up SURPASSING her in a fight. Meaning she will have to be more creative with her attacks against this Spartan.

After her attack was blocked she slide past Jack a bit more before she did what could best be described as her 'launching herself through the air like a bullet' as she then jumped forward while spinning herself like a bullet travelling in the air before she suddenly turned around.

Quickly the woman lifted her hand in the air before clenching her fist, as she did a flash of light happened... at first nothing happened but quickly Jack's shields sparked and essentially dispersed in a powerful pulse, temporarily depleting his shields and restoring any damage her shields took. Then as she was in the air, now a good 30 or so ft from Jack, she held out her hand and suddenly... a strange magnetic bubble could be seen quickly appearing around the Spartan. The air around him was more or less distorted with the intensity of the magnetism.

Suddenly the Tenno put away her blade once more in exchange for her two pistols. Quickly reloading she then took aim and fired all around the bubble around Jack.... What was odd though was that the bullets seemed to... home in onto his armor once they got within range of this magnetic field...

The Tenno had turned Jack into a powerful magnet. In fact, some of the lamp-posts around Jack were beginning to bend and warp and even short-circuit due to the sheer intensity of the magnetic field around him.

Renamon´s meditation was interrupted as she heard the masked male talking, she just looked at Nera who shrugged while answering "Up to you Glaive, what will the next challenge be?" she asked getting on her feet and hoping for something great.

Washington D.C. | Palutena's Apartment

Toriel smiled at the reaction that her pie made to the gentleman "It is indeed of Butterscotch sir, we recently got into the new apartment here and we wanted to meet our new neighbors with some pie to enjoy the time" she spoke and then used her free hand to gesture to herself and her skeleton friend "My name is Toriel and this is my friend Sans, pleased to meet you" she greeted him.

En route to Prometheus Labs - London


Vala simply gave an unamused chuckle "There is always something worse, that is how the universe works" she spoke while looking at the moving scenery "And cuiously enough, the worst part of these growing problems is that it is a mixture of both the game world and the real world, thus having a storm of megalomaniac monsters in the form of simple humans, but who want to just obtain their benefit, no matter what they need to do" she said and then looked at the spartan "But enough of that, I need to see Halsey"

The Trojan banged it's shield with it's sword, purple energy swirling up from beneath it. The Trojan itself just seemed a little larger now, it's blade crackling with shadowy energy, a another puff of steam erupted from it's nostrils. It was ready for nearly anything to come at it.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Training Room - Sector 4, Prometheus Labs - London

Deep within the several heavily guarded sectors of the London-based Prometheus Labs, one could hear the frantic sounds of clashing as magic and metal met with force. Accompanied with the sounds of occasional giggling and grunts, the brawl contained with the Training Room of Sector 4 was sure to draw in attention from a variety of individuals.
But this wasn't a fight between two adversaries. Instead, this was but a friendly skirmish.

Dotting the battleground with danmaku, the young vampire Flandre playfully glided in the air as she dodged bullets and plasma shots from her opponent. Skipping and twirling, Flandre's patterns continued to shower down upon the Training Room in an unending display. Locking herself in combat, Flandre became ecstatic. Her heart racing. Unlike her prior battle against the Nobodies, this one made Flandre truly alive. If only for a brief moment before the cruel element known as reality would set back in.

As the battle died down, Flandre ceased fire and quickly descended to the ground below. Giddily approaching her SPARTAN acquaintance, Flandre pranced around the room much like a child on her birthday.
"That was fun, Alicey!" Flandre cheered with a toothy grin on her face, "You're quite something! Reminds me of a meanie miko I once battled."

((Yeah, I kinda just went head-first into this whole thing. I recall S1 saying something or another about the Training Room but I forgot... Oh well.))

Smash through the blocks that bar your way; No time for fear, just let it all fall away; Nobody believes in me and you, Just look at the way they stare; So what if we live in a walled garden, As long as I've got you then I don't care!
