Crash Site "Be wary." SimO said. "The creatures like high energy levels. In layman's terms, the closer we get, the more there will be." Isle of Spirits "I have an idea." Mima said. Somewhere around the island there's this tower. Last time I went there, it whisked me to the other planet and another tower. All we need is a boat, or something to act as a boat."
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.
"The Tower of Aquarion." The guardian spoke, overhearing what the group was saying. "Due north, past the 'Mirror's Edge', the border of the Mirror Sea that separates it from the Northern Sea. A mere few hours away by boat. At the other end, the remnants of a Space Port still stand on Pangaea, the main continent of the sister planet Duon."

"It's not me that has the plan. Cortana does.", John quietly said to Mara as they neared the exit to the Sanctuary of Light, preventing the Guardian from hearing.
As they reached the door, John turned over and spoke to Mima.
"That might work. If we don't find our ships there, then they could be on the other planet.", John calmly said to Mima.

Ethan didn't really like the thought of having to fight more of those creatures, but if that was the only way to get to the core, then so be it. He would make sure that the creatures couldn't escape the ship.
"Got it. Let's get this done before any of the creatures have a chance to escape.", Ethan said as he followed SimO.

Isle of Spirits "Well, we need a boat before we do anything, so yeah." Mima replied, looking over to the Guardian.
"Would you know where to find a boat?" Mima asked.

"If I recall, there once was a hidden alcove near the west wing of the Manor. Shipwrecks used to accumulate there when the foolish and the brave attempted to navigate these waters. Hidden currents plague the Mirror Sea. Wind tends to be sparsely seen beyond the isle. Though, I would assume that such obstacles would be trivial to you all." Said the guardian.
Isle of Spirits "I might have a spell or two for that." Mima smirked. Crash Site "Agreed." SimO opened a large vent. "The vents can lead us close to the core. Watch your head. And your feet." SimO said as he walked in, rifle at the ready.

Miranda looked at the crystals and her eyes widened.
"Wait a second... those are the crystals me and my men were sent here to keep in charge of mining. We currently should have several tons of these crystals in storage, remaining untouched for quite a while now. How long would it take to recharge these crystals from just one?" Miranda replied as suddenly her conversation was interrupted by a guard.
"Uh... Miranda ma'am, we have a problem in Housing Sector B. It appears that two "tourists" have gotten in a fight, and I fear that some civilians might get... involved." The guard replied as Miranda sighed as she turned to the lone guard.
"Just send Tommy out there to deal with it, he isn't doing anything special right now isn't he?"
"No Ma'am, he is not. Currently he should be in his sleeping quarters right now."
"Then send him in! I don't have time to deal with so much trivial things right now." She demanded in a very authoritative, and annoyed tone. Right now everything else just seems trivial to her.
"Understood Ma'am, I'll go inform him right away..." The guard said as he left Miranda's office.
The guard then quickly left the room and began to contact agent Tommy Oliver. "Tommy Oliver we have a problem in Housing Sector B, there is a serious fight between two tourists, and Miranda ordered me to tell you to go handle the problem pronto." The guard informed the guard known as Tommy Oliver via communicator.

Megumi who had retrieved her sword, and recovered had continued to fight with Astraea. They were trading blow for blow, strike for strike. Both of them seemed to be even in every aspect. One problem with Megumi though was she was beginning to feel a little fatigued. She hasn't fully recovered from her bout of Heat Exhaustion, and it was beginning to show. Megumi was slowing down a bit, and beginning to have a harder time breathing.
That is when Astraea performed an overhead swipe with her blade, of which Megumi tried to block. Megumi was successful at blocking Astraea's attack, but Astraea quickly pulled back her sword and performed a quick upward strike from her blade. The strike Astraea pulled off had sent Megumi's Black Blade flying through the air, landing in the ground a good distance away from Megumi. Now with Megumi defenseless, and Astraea having the upper hand the Winged Super Human Hunter Astraea pointed her blade at Megumi's neck, ready to deal the finishing blow.
"Say goodbye you pest! Though before I kill you do you have any last words?" Astraea said in a rather arrogant, and even downright cocky tone before breaking into a boisterous laughter.
Megumi who was not ready to die saw how Astraea left her guard down completely. Using this as her chance Megumi grabbed a handful of sand, and tossed it right into Astraea's face. Astraea screamed as she dropped her blade, she then quickly tried to wipe the sand out of her eyes while Megumi made a break for her sword.

Hajime began to seem indifferent to the whole situation, he literally had no idea of what to make of it and yet Eve was quite the opposite. She was processing everything in as much as possible, and then she walked up to John and the others. "Excuse me but me and my... partner here I assume do not have a ship of our own. Do you mind if we tag along with one of you when we all try to leave?" She asked in a rather calm, and well mannered tone.
Morice and Jimmy were standing at the edge of the colony border.
"... Well, while we're here, we may as well do a quick combat check," Morice suggested.
"I have no problem with that. Just don't cry when I beat you," the heavy, armored lizard scoffed.
"We'll see."
They walked away from the colony and walked away from eachother. Then, after they were a good ways away from the border, they faced eachother. They both got into a battle stance.
"You may be bigger, but the bigger they are, the harder they fall," Morice taunted.
"You may be fast, but you're still tiny," Jimmy returned.
They stared eachother down, until... Morice called the match.

John heard what Eve had said, but he did not really think about answering. After all, it was very likely that one of the other group members would offer to give the duo a ride, but after a couple of seconds, Cortana spoke to John.
"Chief, why don't we help them?", Cortana asked John.
Right after Cortana spoke, John shut off his voice modulator and spoke to Cortana without the worry of their conversation being heard by the others.
"They'll be fine. One of the others will offer them help.", John calmly said to Cortana.
"But I get the feeling that we know them, much more than the others do. Besides, it's only if they don't have their own ship."
"There's not enough space or resources on the Longsword for two other people. For all we know, there could be no food left."
"You and I both know there's enough space on the Longsword. It's designed for a crew of four. As for the food, that won't be too much of a concern. Based on my calculations, we have not been in this timeline very long, besides the 10,000 year nap... Come on, Chief. It's about time you learn to play with others.", Cortana said to John, giving a slight teasing remark at the end.
John knew that he couldn't really argue with Cortana. After all, she was a hyper-intelligent AI. Even if he wanted to remain alone, he couldn't bring himself to ignore Cortana's advice. John was reluctant to speak up, but he saw no other choice. After a couple of seconds, John reactivated his voice modulator and spoke to Eve.
"You can come with us. We have enough space to fit four people.", John said to Eve in a calm, almost emotionless tone.

Ethan quietly nodded at SimO as the robot entered the ventilation shaft. After SimO entered the ventilation shaft, Ethan looked behind them before quietly following suit, making sure nothing was following them.
