22 sits back, starting to glaze. None of this was directed at him, and no one was giving orders so he began to look around for a plug in.

He did still have a nagging feeling that Infaeri and Asv. weren't going to take Fal outside, but they said they would, so how could 22 not believe them?

Plus, he was having a little trouble moving. The burns on his back and the explosion from before were very painful, and he needed some time to heal.

Asv. skeletal arms had grabbed the two blades from the floor, as Kira moved towards him and the sleeping body with the dagger; the movement was out of habit. He is a little started when Infaeri steps between them, while he was focused on Kira, she could have set fire to all three of them and none would have seen it coming. He is also a little surprised that she agreed with him, he would only admit to himself that there was a twinge of jealousy in his blackened heart, that his mistress had granted her such a gift. But Infaeri's agreement made him think better of her. "There will be plenty of blood for our blades and more flesh for bullets then we could imagine." Asv. says "Punishment for disobedience yes, death for this no, let him serve at the flames and burning metal, like those of old, perhaps then he will be less likely to step out of line." He waits for a reaction, before saying what he had said before. "Let us take leave and heal those who are injured." He makes a gesture with his free hand for Kira to lead the way.
(If infaeri can take Fal, Asv can lift and probably carry 22. ;) )

(OOC: She has intended to pick Fal up herself, but then you did. Worried a bit until you said your piece, lol)

As long as Kira does not attack or move forward Infaeri takes Fal from Asv and proceeds to take him upstairs for treatment.

Asv. had a feeling that he and Kira shared a similar history, but he pushes the idea aside, he wanted to get this over with and get back to building or to something more pressing (if Kira relents ;) ) Asv. will help 22 maybe carry him, if he allows him too.

22 is reluctant to be touched, what with the various injuries associated with being blown up, but he accept the offer of help and puts an arm over Asv to let Asv, help him up the stairs.

(Which would look funny. I'm also 8 ft, so I'd be stooping quite a bit.)

A day passes.

22 is fully healed, minus his lost stamina (PE). Fal regains consciousness sometime in the early morning of the second day.

Father Damian calls everyone together. "OK. We have confirmation of a massive burst of energy from a point of power in the Andies. The team that was sent out to examine the area found evidence of Demonic presence. It is now only a matter of time before the Demons make themselves known. I want all of you to get to your posts and begin your preparations. Asvaldr, Infaeri and I will go to our location to begin construction of weapons. Dukat and Kira will go to St. Louis to work on the Pyramid. Any questions?"

Infaeri nods her understanding. Obsidian just gets to work, being a man of few words.

Fal's ears twitch as he listens carefully for his surroundings, he shifts slightly to see if his Uzis were still in place and then slowly opens his eyes. "No one?" He mumbles to himself? He jumps out of bed and is greeted by searing pain, he looks down at his bandaged chest. He would figure out what happened here. He looks at his bloodied and shredded T-shirt on a table in the corner of the room and looks around to to find himself in an employee nap room. He scoops his guns from the table and peeks under his bandages. He couldn't see anything but bloodied fur and stitches. He could only assume 22 had in fact got him away from what ever the hell happened down there but not without a fight.

He opens the door slowly to look outside, nothing but a couple employees? He puts a hand on one of his guns as he steps out in-case they try to stop him. nothing, WHAT THE HELL?! Fal wanders down to the garage, the doors were blown inward by some type of shape charge. Probably what got him. Infaerie? No, not unless the puppeteer pulled her. Kira then? Was this is 'punishment' for being seen in Rome? He walks to his work table, everything is where he left it, including the shot gun on the floor from when he tried to get out. He looks at his armor yet incomplete, the filtration system would have saved him in this instance, it was to be put to immediate priority. He taps his ear, radio was still in place he opened up a channel to 22.

"Skeelos, garage, now. Don't tell anyone where you are going and notify me of any delays."

He looks around, if he needed to honestly protect himself from his own 'allies' then maybe it would be useful to utilize their recourses while he could. He grabs his shotgun from the floor and his AUG and puts them both in their respective places in his car and heads up to Zotan's office to talk out the purchase of the Pennsylvanian foundry.



Dee looks around, there was a lot of new people here, posts? Prepraration? He had never got any orders. He remains silent untill everyone else files out.

The radio command woke 22. 22 slowly crawls from whatever nook he had managed to squeezze himself into. He found himself under the stairs. Stretching slightly, he realized the pain from the burns on his back hadn't gone away. They even seemed slightly worse. He shrugged it off for now and reported to the Garage.

Looking around cautiously as he entered, just incase there was more explosives, 22 bowed slightly. "Here sir. There is a meeting at the Church. Kira ordered me to bring you once you had awoken. We should leave immediately."
(Taking a few liberties here to move the story)

22 accompanies Fal to the meeting and, once there, find the least obtrusive corner of the room to stand in and reamins silent until he is directly spoken to.


Gantu looked around at those present. There was quite a few people in this small room. He hadn't had a chance to meet many of them, but maybe that was better. Part of him didn't want to care about them in case they were lost or hurt durring the upcoming conflict.

Gantu rasied his hand, "I have some questions. What do you mean they'll begin to make their presence known? Are you saying the civilians will be attacked? If that's the case, why don't we go there immediately to battle them, or at the very least evacuate the civilians?"

22's ears perked at the sound of Gantu's voice. Memory trickled slowly back into his mind, and his gaze came up to lock on the Intergalactic Policeman. 22 suddenly roared in fury, his wings thrown wide. He lunged across the room, leaping towards Gantu with murderous intent.

Strike (1d20=9)

Gantu barely has time to bring up his bio armor as the creature streaks across the room at him. The impact sends the two sprawling

keep in mind that such actions of battle can't be done in the church. Sanctuary is still in effect.

"The church?" Fal follows 22 to the church, "Another goddamn meeting so Mr, Kira can fluff his ego some more."

He heard the black demon looking individual talk all cushy about some civies. Where in the hell did they manage to gether up a group of freaks like this? His attention snaps to a shadow near the door at the back of the room, his line of sight is broken when 22 flies across the room at the demon-like individual. He is even more confused when 22 simply vanishes.

"Demons?" He mutters as he looks back up, the shadow was still there, tall and motionless. He hadn't seen his brother in a whlie, they hadn't left on the best of terms he worried, at this range he wasn't sure if he'd be able to react if Dee lunged. He takes quick glances at the others assembled, Kira was being sent away... A stroke of luck. Infaeie was being stuck in a forge, yet another plus.

A living rock, a scaly humanoid, that demon thing and this old fart ordering people around. He looks to Kira and Infaerie for signs but keeps a close eye on Dee.



This I didn't expect... The dog left and dragged Fal back. Dee considers darting when the dog flies at Gantu but hesitates when the dog just disappears. Fal didn't appear to want to start something though or it would have already happend. Although aurprise was something Dee wasn't used to seeing on Fal's face, he anticipated everything. Then again, blood was also something he wasn't used to seeing on Fal, his chest was covvered in banages and he could smell the blood from the time he stepped out of his car.

there may be demons and the end of the world but something more relevant to him as far as he was concerned was happening, maybe these people he didn't recognise were Fal's associates. He wasn't famous for working under anyone though. The one named Kira called himself with an odd swagger and an oddly padded step. Asvaldr didn't look even close to human and Infaerie appears completely unremarkable. What are you up to brother?

He focuses on his brother and speaks directly to him so no one else can hear. "Leave slowly, a converstation appears to be in order."

( I had forgotten about that.)

22 Roars and leaps across the room, but suddenly, his sight is clouded and he falls into unconsciousness, his considerable weight slowly rolling to a stop. Gantu had brought up his armor instinctively at the roar.

He looked towards the unconcious creature. "What was that?"

Father Damian looks at the fallen 22. "Sanctuary. A formidable spell that keeps people from attacking one another. It seems that what ever feelings he has for you were enough to over power the spell a moment. He will be fine in a few moments. Now, as for your concerns. We will be doing what trouble shooting we can but there is only so much we can do. The Demons had already left the area when the team got to where they had come through. Tracking them down is a priority, but not one we expect will turn up any results. You may accompany which ever team you feel you will be best able to help".

Asv. remains quiet, watching all the new figures that had turned up from under his hood. The beast man was on his feet as was his friend, but that didn't last long as 22 charges another being and falls to the floor. Asv. shakes his head slightly looking down at the creature; Kira was right, this group needed some discipline. Asv. has no questions, he had been given his orders prior to this and was eager to get back to them.

Gantu seems to think about it. "I can't imagine I'd be any help on either team. I have no magical prowess or aptitude, Other than these of course." He begins to absentmindedly spin his energy bonds around his fingers.

He shrugged. "I don't really even know enough about what we're trying to do for me to help. Maybe I could help keep civilians away from the construction site?"

Father Damian nods. "That could be of some use actually. Please do that. If there are no further questions, then I would ask everyone to get to their places".

Dee steps out the door without a word and as little sound.

Fal does the same and heads back to Zota Corp to keep talking over the purchase of the foundry.

Dee follows from the rooftops to Zota Corp and watches Fal enter unasailed by the security, even with his guns. Everyone had something to do but him, why is that? What predetermined plan did he have?
(forgot to say Fal snagged 22 on his way out)

(22 is unconcious and is therefore dragged out over Fal's shoulder)

Gantu nods. "Alright. I'll do that then."

==Kira==

Kira stands silently through the meeting, observing rather than speaking. He watches as 22 arrives with the now conscious Fal good boy and then promptly lunges across the room at Gantu before falling unconscious this needs to be settled... He watches as Fal scoops up 22 and promptly shoots Gantu a telepathic message, "I think we need to have a word with those two, meet us in the Cathedral's sanctuary." He then shoots another message to Fal, "before you leave we must speak, meet Gantu and I with 22 in the Cathedral's sanctuary."

Gantu looks around confused at the sudden message. He eye's meet Kira's and he understands. After the meeting adjourns, Gantu comes to the Sanctuary and looks around for the telepath.

Fal, try as he may, can't figure out a way to carry 22 comfortably so he just holds a foot and drags him along. He was less than willing to show up at the cathedral but it wasn't exactly out of his way. He gives Dee a look that is immediately understood, they disagreed but they were still blood.

He decides to show a little consideration so he flips 22 around and holds his forearms over his shoulders as he walks to the meeting point.

==Kira==

Kira leaves for the sanctuary immediately after shooting off the message. He takes a different path from Fal and 22 so as to avoid following them down the hall and indicates that Gantu should follow. "We can't have people trying to kill each other at this point, there are bigger things to worry about. I hope we can at least ensure that 22 doesn't try to eat you while we work together, and Fal and I may need to resolve a few things too."

If they make it there first they sit and wait in a pew watching the front. Once Kira hears the other two approaching he stands to meet them and indicates that they may sit if they like. Kira smiles pleasantly. "I am glad to see that you have regained consciousness and recovered. You probably have questions about the last few days so please allow me to summarize for you. When you didn't show up for the debrief I took it... personally to say the least. I have had the sense that you do not particularly like me since Rome, and that is fine, I do not require you to, but back to the matter at hand...

"With the co-operation of the others we had previously worked with I laid a trap to capture you so that you and 22 may be put on trial in order to determine your usefulness to this group. to put it mildly, things did not go according to plan and 22 escaped with you in tow. The fact that he managed to escape the trap impressed me and I though he might deserve a chance at a pardon, thus when he was cornered I tested his loyalty and ability to respond to authority and commands. I ordered him to kill you or die..."

Kira pauses.

"He put forth a sincere effort, though seemed quite confused about what the proper action was. He attacked you ferociously several times with some kind of biological projectile thus proving his value to me. He is both strong and capable of following basic orders. This also explains why you were injured.

"I had decided to finish you personally simply because I did not wish to give you the chance to retaliate against me at a later date, but Asv. and Inferi, who both laid in ambush alongside me, persuaded me that you would be useful and deserved a second chance. You owe them your life.

"At this point, your usefulness remains to be seen though I am sure you will have ample time to prove yourself in the coming war. I did not come here to apologize, nor to exert authority over you, nor did I come here to gloat. I came here to tell you the truth of things, though you may feel free to investigate them yourself. I also came here to re-assure you that I will not make another attempt on your life unless you give me further reason to. With the impending battle I am sure we will both find ourselves very busy just trying to survive, and if you would care to exact revenge on me then I would advise you to wait until after this ordeal. We are, after all, more valuable to each others survival alive than dead, and though you may hate me I would advise you to work with me. I have, after all, survived several millenia all ready. I am the closest thing any of you has to an expert."

Kira waits for Fal's response and for 22 to come around.

22 regains conscious slowly. As soon as he sees Gantu, though, his teeth showed and he once again slumped.

Gantu made a concerned face, "He seems to really hate me. I think I really need to just distance myself from him. Maybe we can discuss this another time." Gantu begins to leave, and if he isn't stopped leaves the church to inform the police that he was leaving for another assignment.

Fal's brow twitches. "Revenge is a human trait, which means it is disgusting." He pauses briefly Infaerie is still on my side?... Where the hell does 22 sit? He just listens to anyone it would seem. "Don't compare me to such disgusting creatures if you're going to stoop to their level." He steps past and follows Gantu out the door still dragging 22's feet along the floor, a few paces away without turning he continues. "I will be prepared next time." He whistles and Dee steps from behind the door leading to the main area and follows.



Dee watched Kira intently as he passes. Who was 22? Infearie and Asv, he couldn't make heads or tails of them. Kira, lastly, was quite sure of himself. From experience they were the ones that fell first, the 'war' would show he supposed.




Same story as before, Fal heads to Zota to talk out the purchase of the foundry and Dee follows him to Zota.
