Death Vally l Around midnight
Kris was looking at the flames and she felt quite nice about it, sometimes the most impressive things came from the simplest actions, the fire was both a simple and complex thing that the fox knew could be for hope and for destruction.
"So far we got something they hold precious on your hands, the moko boy wouldn´t just give up and the infecta soldier is too stubborn to leave us alone, you my friend are his number one target, quite popular if you ask me" the tengu spoke in an amused tone as she started moving their equipment to the next destination

Infecta Base - Late Night
After heading down the secret hatch, Zero arrived at a small lab. "Got to hand it to Sis, she really made it well." Zero said as he walks over to some mechanical arma repairing Zero's gear. He looked to his right at the main computer and there was a picture of him and his sister (in civilian clothing) after arriving on the planet.

Death Vally l Around midnight
With a soft sigh Seki placed her rifle back in the wagon, covering it with her cot as she did with the rest of the weapons. "Let the damn fool come. The infecta are strong but with one fetal flaw. They'll keep fighting and fighting until every last one of them dies of old age. Ragnarok will win the war by default. If anything i'm lucky to at least have your company before i go." Seki climbed on to the front of the wagon where she could control the ox. "So why help such a pitiful being? I'm sure you have your own ambitions to follow."

Kris couldn´t help but chuckle "Time my friend, I already went beyond the average Ragnarok life span and I´m in what is supposed my last hundred years" she said looking at the sky "When you live that time, you get to see many things, new lives, new wars, even civilizations being born and fall, some of my people decided to just end their lives with all those memories, but I wanted to enjoy mine to the fullest"
"Obviously doing this would cause some problems too, having all this information can send high royalties to prison or execution, so I decided to live as a nomad, avoiding being noticed, but also getting to know more things" the last statement made the tengu smile "Take for example the big guys of my people, they are old, but I could actually be an elder. Yet here I am enjoying my life"
"Then one night comes someone trying to hunt me, a wicked infecta female just acting for survival, trust me that if it wasn´t because you decided to talk, we wouldn´t be here. The war between the Ragnarok and the infecta is just another struggle between too bigheads who want a piece of land or want to show they are better while the people have to suffer through all of this mess. Then both of us come in the situation, what would our wrench do if we throw it to their clockwork system? That is something I want to see"

Jungle : Southwest of the Infecta Base
"..." Nemesis silently scanned the poster for all details and then suddenly turned and started heading towards the base.
"An Infecta officer? Maybe he could give me another view on the situation." Starla, who had been listening in through Nemesis, mulled over the concept. "Hopefully Nemesis doesn't get overly damaged in this..."
As Nemesis reached the edge of the jungle near the base, she stopped and crouched in the bushes, not making an overly extensive attempt to hide.

Infecta Base
A good half-hour after Jason left Zero's quarters, he decided that it would only be wise to find some leads of his own into this mysterious rogue Infecta. After all, it seemed as if nobody knew of this girl, and the trail was growing colder by the hour. With that in mind, along with the desire to improve and tweak his armor systems, Jason headed to the R&D department of the Shinka Knights HQ.
R&D Labs - Shinka Knights HQ - Infecta Base
Once arriving at the R&D Labs, Jason walked past a group of Infecta that were testing armor systems and arrived at a workstation with an armor station. Jason stepped onto the station's platform. All of a sudden, two large halves of a steel pod emerged from the ground and enveloped Jason as multiple mechanical arms erupted from the inside of the pod, each one with either a tool or mechanical hand attached to the ends of them, and immediately got to work on removing Jason's armor. Each piece was hastily removed by the mechanical arms, and once they were finished, a young man with brown hair, brown eyes, and a Shinka Knights uniform emerged from the pod, casually stepping off of the platform as the arms retreated back into the pod before the pod retreated back into the floor.
After that, Jason walked over to the desk next to the armor station and activated the holographic terminal. The holographic terminal hummed to life as a turquoise screen appeared and hovered in front of Jason. Wasting little time, Jason logged in to the terminal and began to run through the diagnostics of his armor, making sure each component was working perfectly before moving on to the next step. After the inspection was complete, Jason brought up a program he had created and activated its upgrade function, selecting an upgrade called "D-Class Crystal Capacitors". Once that was done, a progress bar appeared on the screen, along with an estimated completion timer of ten minutes, plenty of time for Jason to activate the bases spy drones and scout for intel.

R&D Labs - Shinka Knights HQ - Infecta Base
Brooks had already been in the laboratory, working hard on uncovering the secrets of the artifact Jason and Brooks recovered. Standing guard over him was Brooks himself, the rookie Infecta whom went on the mission with Jason and Cooper and two other Majors. It seemed the rookie had done an excellent job bringing Cooper home safely. The lot of them took a moment to salute Jason as he entered the room before returning to their work. Brooks was back in his magnetism suit with his antimatter gear was in another armor station. It seemed like a few of the R&D guys were working to improve the flash bang protection in Brook's helm.
Jungle : Southwest of the Infecta Base
Stiprumas gave the golem a slight head start to get into position. After a few moments the moko launched several ground to air rocket. The rocket wasn't intended to strike the base however. The rockets simply flew into the air as a decoy. Once the infecta defense system fond the rockets. They sent their own heat seekers out to intercept them. This comotion would cause enough noise to alert the entire base while pulling the majority of the defense systems away from the moko squad. As flame and asjes fell from the skies, The moko's moved in readying themselves for battle.

Jason nodded and saluted in thanks and respect at the salutes he received as he entered the room, but the feeling was short-lived when the case's alarms blared throughout the facility soon after Jason began upgrading his armor.
(Shhhhh*t...), Jason thought as the room was illuminated in the red lights of the alarm system.
Unfortunately for Jason, he would not have access to his armor for ten minutes, leaving him unprotected and without his crystal's power. He knew that it my left him at a disadvantage, but he still had one thing that could make up for it; his mind. Right after the alarms began to drone, Jason quickly turned over to Cooper and spoke.
"Cooper, get me some wiring, an electromagnet, and a few of the energy cells from some power suits!", Jason quickly said as he ran towards one of the nearby cabinets and began to pull out an arc welder, aluminum dust, iron(3) oxide, copper(2) oxide, barium nitrate, sulfur, and ran to a chemical binder.
As Jason reached the chemical binding device, Jason put all the chemicals on the table and opened up a holographic terminal beside it. He then requisitioned for his weapons to be transported to the workstation he was currently at. As soon as he confirmed his order, a set of mechanical arms emerged from the ground, each one with a gun in hand. Wasting little time, the mechanical arms placed the weapons on the table and retreated back into the ground.

Infecta Base
Nemesis watched the missiles as they were systematically destroyed by the bases defense grid. Afterwards, she looked back to the wall of the base, scanning for access points. There was one door, concealed slightly by vines. She made her way over to its location and attempted to open it.
Locked. Nemesis contemplated using force to pry it open, calculating effective weak points but the voice of Starla stopped her.
"Nemesis, patch into the security panel. I'll hack into the system and that'll open the door."
Nemesis focused on the panel and started to pry it open. With calculated movements she rigged the panel with a spare receiver she was made with.
Now linked to the system, Starla quickly started going through the code looking for two things: a way to open the door as well as if there was a back door to the rest of the base's systems.
"Ok... what system do we have here? Looks like..." She paused for a moment as the code on the screen scrolled down. Noting patterns in the lines, she took a guess at a command to open the door Nemesis was at.
Upon pressing enter, a random door in the base opened, but not the one she was trying to access. "...uhm... ok that's...almost right. So...just need to change that parameter aaaaaand..."
Click
This time the right door opened. Nemesis closed the security panel, concealing the receiver, and then proceeded into the base.
***
The room Nemesis entered appeared to be an old abandoned guard post, however it wasn't currently vacant. Hiding behind some old storage containers were two Infecta who were merrily drinking down a bottle of whiskey. One glanced over one of the crates at the sound of the door opening but the alcohol in his system as well as the darkness of the room impaired his recognition of the fact that the door was indeed open, and that a woman was standing in the doorway. He looked back to his friend, chuckling at some drunk thought. Suddenly, recognition dawned on him and he looked back towards where Nemesis stood, horror creeping through his mind. Silently he nudged his friend, trying to draw his attention to Nemesis. At the moment both men noticed Nemesis, Nemesis noticed them. Suddenly turning her head and looking straight at them with her expressionless face and her red eyes shining in the dark, the two drunks panicked.
"Fuckfuckfuckfuckit'sademonlady!"
"Runrunrun!"
"Shhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii-!"
With little grace, the two infecta scrambled for the door that led deeper into the base, both shouting about how the demon lady was after their souls.
"Well... this isn't good..." Starla said aloud. "Time to try and salvage this as a stealth operation...." With that said, she entered in a code that suddenly turned off the lights in the base.
Nemesis simply watched the drunks as they ran out of sight down the hallway, the lack of light not impairing her sight, however her red eyes seemed to glow brighter in the dark.
"Ok Nemesis, perform a search for the databanks of the base, proceed to its location, and download the base layout from the servers."
"Understood. I will proceed to the target location. Starla, I will require your assistance in accessing sealed off sections of the base."
Nemesis's response caught Starla off guard. "Is Nemesis developing...additional systems as she's active? I didn't install her 'natural communication' system yet..." recovering from the shock of this realization, she answered Nemesis, "Of course. Scanning system for any obstacles to your path."

Death Vally l Around midnight
The infecta let out a small yawn after listening to the tengu's explanation. She supposed her reasoning wasn't as important as actually having her as a companion. She didn't seem to mind being called wicked either. In truth the two of them had more in common then one might think. Perhaps it was the lack of sleep making her think this way, but the infecta was just happy she didn't have to live this life alone. "Some fight for freedom, some fight for land, some fight for honor... And some people just want to watch the world burn." She scooted over in her seat, giving the tengu room to sit next to her and waiting for her to climb on. The infecta was facing forward with her eyes closed but clearly not sleeping. she seemed to e meditating on something. She actually looked peaceful for once.
She hesitated for a moment after her partner climbed onto the seat. For a moment it almost seemed like she had lost herself completely in her thoughts but the silence of the night was soon broken. "Thank you." was the only thing she said before telling the ox to move forward. The infecta was barely able to keep her eyes open, but she pushed on into the night, looking for a safe location to rebuild. Or at least a place to camp until morning.
