"Thank you for the assistance, Farlander. And you two as well, Lizards. But I'm afraid all is lost. Someone wants me dead and I can't continue my research any longer."

Just doing my duty, we cant have these criminals breaking in and killing people anywhere.
*He motions two enforcers forward*
Make sure you analyse the equipment of these people, we need to try and figure out who they are.
*To Cromwell*
I dont know about your research, but I can certainly deal with these attempts on your life. But you are a scientist are you not? There may be some arrangement we can come to for mutual benefit.
And Lizordium, I pointed out the advantages of settling the Jovian people on Luna for the time being, and most of the officials seemed to go along with it. If our deal is still on I would like to discuss what you can do for me in return.

L: "Certainly. Mortis please stay with Cromwell here and offer whatever assistance you can."

*Mortis stops gorging the corpse with the bitten-off head, wipes off his mouth and bows. He puts away his tail mace-whip and goes to Cromwell*

L: "Cromwell, please make use of Mortis' knowledge and skills. He will help you in any way he can. Perhaps we can arrange for various monetary aid, for whatever. In the meantime, I must go with Farlander."

M: "I will stay here with Cromwell as you wish"

L (to Farlander): "Mortis told me of your troubles, perhaps you would like to lead me to a more private place where we can discuss what you need."

"Maybe it got scratched er somethin'. But ya do what ya gotta do, Zanz. Lord only knows you love meddlin' wiv things."

Zanzibar stood back up and rewrapped the cannon. "You have done me well." Zanzibar slapped the old man on the shoulder and smiled. "Show me around. What is this place like? We have some time to spare... right?"

*LeChuck met Zanzibar's gaze at the question about time. LeChuck thought for a moment, then spoke*
"Well, there is business I must be attendin' to back on Tortuga, bout gettin' a crew an' all. There also be some mates I was thinkin' a visitin' in the dodgy parts'a town....well.....Perhaps we could dawdle fer a minute er two."
*The deformed man's face cracked into what seemed to be a smile*
"Excellent! I would give you a tour, but I have to get back to work. But make yourselves at home....if that phrase even really applies down here. Just watch out for crags, drops, pits, and Chiurpa's."
*The man hobbled off back to the general mass of workers. LeChuck squinted at Zanzibar with confused look on his face*
"Did you un'erstan' a word 'e jus said? Crags? Pits? Chergas? What the bloody 'ell is a cherga?"

"Grand"
*LeChuck and Zanzibar strolled around the caverns for a bit, amazed at how little the polution had affected this area due to the use of the Gradflogs. They walked around aimlessly until LeChuck got visibly bored, as he began tearing tips off stalactites and chucking them against the wall, causing them to shatter. The pair walked back to where they had first dropped through, and LeChuck clapped his hand on Zanzibar's shoulder once more and took the two up to the surface again. It was an unpleasant jolt back to reality. They walked back to the elevator, through the destroyed security chamber, and got back on. They proceeded up to the lowest habitable level where the thieves generally hid from the law. LeChuck grinned as the doors opened.*

As you know, the crime levels in Kharad are extreme, and we dont have enough enforcers to deal with the problem efficiently. What I would ask of you is that you lend some of your warriors to the enforcement branch, where we can use their skills to root out and eradicate the criminal elements of the lower city. I would also request that maintain contact, in private of course, so that we can continue to aid each other in the future.

As Church walks down the street he notices a shadow pass overhead. He looks up to catch a glipse of somethinf landing on the building across the street from him. Once again he hears a voice behind him. "you should follow whatever that was. it could be something important."
Church turns around "Would you stop following me!?" No one is there.
Again the voice comes from behind him. "Hurry up that thing will get away."
Church spins around again, but nothing is there. He decides to follow the thing he saw, rather then piss of what appeared to be his internal thoughts.
Church TK (telekenisis) lifts himself to the roof and sees the thing in the distance. He beginds to follow it, useing a Tk throw to help him clear the gaps.
Again the voice speaks to him "Thats more like it, I can tell this is going to lead to a fight." Church looks over his should again "Whoever you are, you are one violent guy. Ya'know that right?" The voice replies "hehe, I know it's great isn't it."

Sanctuary! sleeps....

Marik franticaly looked all around him, nothing was familiar at all. he was not in the cave any more. His chest burned in pain, he swenched in surprise and looked to see what it could be. After the cave had started glowing, the pendant had burned a bright red, scaring his chest in its image. The medalion only glowed a golden yellow now. "Its had never done that before," Marik thought. He agian looked around, nothing made sense, he didn't feel placed right, there was no open fields, mountainious regions, or even beaches in sight for that matter. Tall structures surrounded him. He felt very out of place. His 16 year old mind could not even comprihend what had just happened. He looked down, checking himself, nothing was lost, he was just as he was after the light. Suddenly, fear overcame him, where was he to go? His asnwers in the cave of unlocking the potential of his pendant were now lost. A strange world had now fallen apon him.

He scremed in frutsration! "ARRRGGGGGG!!!" He had worked to hard to get to that cave. Now, who knows where it could be? There were still more items to find, but this one was the only one he had now, and its untapped power now seemed to lay dormant forever. Perhaps he could still unlock th power, but that was not his focus now. He had to find out where he was. Somthing just didn't feel right....

Matt saw jerichoV come into view.He was scared he had no money,no family,and no friends there.The transport started falling down to the planet...

On their last recruiting run LeChuck had found a group of men he was quite fond of, that were completely incompitent. "I'm going to wait here and make some contact with Tortuga. Call if you need me." Zanzibar lit up a cigar and sat down on the wrapped cannon. He bagan playing with some gadgets.

"Entertainment?" Gattsu watches the T.V. more closely. "Amazing!" Its a machine!" Gattsu says with an astonished laugh. " I apologize for my outburst, I am alittle jumpy, this is all so new to me, and Kintaro's reach throughout time itself."

The mirror blade comes to the ready position as Gattsu, seeing the alarm in his companions eyes, Gattsu stands to meet the threat with them.

Marik looked up, the sky clouded, nothing like the sky he had seen before, a pure peircing blue, no, this one was a grey. He felt evil in it. Left and right, nothing but these seemingly endless structures that seemed to touch the very heavans themselves. Down, black hardened ground, he fell to his knees on it. "Why.." he muttered siently, "WHY!" he screamed. This was not his earth anymore, it was someone elses. He wept, confused, puzzled, and angry. He held his pendant even closer to him. It golwed a briliant gold now. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and center himself. The golden luster faded from the pendant and became its normal bronze color. He now decided to take action, he rose to his feet and looked for a sign, anythig really. The the sun started to fade away into the sky, lowering into its nightly slumber.

He was suddenly startled by a huge craking noise, he looked around but only saw the silluett of somthing up high, it jumping from scraper to scraper. He continued to look, and saw a man, flying after it? "What? he does not touch the ground?" He said in surprise, and decided to follow the beast in secrecy from the "flying man." He would use no spells to let him summon light, someone would see him then, he decided to keep his pressnece unknown to some point. Whatever the beast was, he sensed great power, and great evil in it. Stronger than any ever felt. Could he actually take this "thing" on if he confronted it? Maybe he was maing a mistake, but it was the only thing he had to go off now.

He continued to run, only led by the beast sounds, and the man in the air.

They were now out of site on the top. "Shall i go confront them?" He thought to himself. He would have to explain himself to them, but how could he? He didn't even know himself. But, he would try. "I wonder if i can make myself fly with magic too.....I will have to look into it later, i have no incantation for it yet." He started to climb the structure. Its was very tall, but he had scaled must more challenging mountains and cliffs than this. He made his way up the structure in the moon light. Slowly starting to hear the two converse.

"Looking for someone?" Came a voice from behind him.
*In a flash LeChuck was turned around, cutlass drawn and teeth bared*
"Who be ye?!"
*A thin shadowy figure slowly walked forward out of the fog and into LeChuck's view. He spoke in a soft, calm voice, almost lulling and very reassuring.*
"Ah, LeChuck. My old mate on the high seas. It's been a while"
*The man was at least 4 inches taller than LeChuck, at 6'3", with a bandana around the top of his head keeping his dreadlocks together, and another one around his face to keep some of the toxic fog out of his lungs. Through the thin slit provided between the two bandanas gleamed piercing brown eyes that were nothing but slits. The man's ears were somewhat pointy as well. His build was slim, but wiry. You might not notice but this man was set for action at the drop of a hat. LeChuck couldn't see it but he knew the man was smiling. LeChuck's face slowly split into a grin as well*
"Syrus, ya'old seadog. How ya been?"
*The two men performed their secret handshake, which was both gripping each others forearm, shaking once, and sliding two fingers along their arm as they withdrew and finally into a fist in the end. The men laughed*
"Come, let's have ye meet me mate, an then let's us find a pub an get'out this ghastly air. Makes me wanna puke the stomach I don't 'ave."
*LeChuck got ready to lead Syrus but then remembered he was completely lost. He cursed under his breath as he turned to Syrus*
"Uh....well....I'm lost, so...maybe--"
*Syrus held up a hand, and LeChuck's wary eye caught a glimpse of the throwing knives he had concealed underneath his sleeve*
"Say no more. I've been following you since you got off the elevator. Come"
*He walked off into the mist, and sure enough, after about 4 minutes Zanzibar appeared, perched on his cannon, fiddling with some mechanical gadget. LeChuck held Syrus back and walked on ahead first so as not to alarm Zanzibar*
"Ahoy Zanzibar! Come meet me mate, Syrus. E's somethin' like you an' I, only he's not undead. I sailed with him before I even met ye! Got word he was hear from an informant who Syrus inconveniently killed soon thereafter. But no matter. Syrus, meet Zanzibar"
*Syrus stepped around and in front of LeChuck in one smooth motion. He stopped in front of Zanzibar and extended his hand*
"Greetings, friend of LeChuck. It's a pleasure"

Suddenly the man stoped on a building above him. "He's Stoped..." Marik thought to himself. And now, yet anyother flying being flew onto the roof of the same building. These two obvioulsy conversing.

He quickly made his way up the building, then, getting closer, slowed to secure no one would hear him. He looked to the moon as he climbed, a cresent in the sky. He neared the last floor, stoping just short of the edge to listen...

None taken, in fact that was the exact reason I wanted Jovians rather than a human task force, your senses of smell, hearing and physical superiority make you perfect for the job.

Pirates, I assume they are some form of creature raised by magic in the past. I doubt they could offer us much, the pirates have long run a socially, and technologically inferior society to ours. I have no objection to you finding them, just make sure you dont get roped into following their path, whatever the reasons be.
If I can convince Cromwell to work on some slightly different projects for the government then it may be a while before I will have need of your warriors, if not then I suggest no delay in dispatching them into the lower city after a full briefing.

Zanzibar looked up at Syrus, surprised to hear that there was another ancient pirate alive. He stood up off of his cannon and stared down Syrus. "An old accomplice of LeChucks... I don't believe it." he said while looking at the new guy. LeChuck looked back at Zanzibar confused. "no friend of LeChuck would be so civil..."

"Well, your LeChuck's companion are you not?"
"... good point." he two smiled and shook hands. "If your really LeChuck's friend you would probably enjoy a drink. And if your really a pirate, you'd enjoy a lot of drinks..."
Zanzibar stood up and picked up the cannon. He turned around and walked over to the door behind them. "Common, this pub serves good beer." Syrus started walking toward the open door.

Taelyn! *Abner rushes to the figure picking him up in a bear hug that could have cracked a rib.* It's been far too long little one. Wow, you've grown so much. Your father would be proud to see what a fine young man you've grown into. As for the other guy i have no clue who he is. All i know is he dropped out of some weird time space thingy and we're sending him home. So what news have you from your travels?

((Sanctuary G'night))

Name: Taelyn ap Arian (or simply Taelyn Arian if you prefer)

Age: approx. 293 Earth Years

Appearance: Variable, Taelyn can change his shape to suit his purpose and tastes. Generally he has black leather gloves and boots, red vinyl pants and half jaket, black wide-necked long-sleeved shirt, long black hair, prominent Fae ears, and burning ruby red eyes. All his teeth naturally appear to be sharp and pointed, with large fang-like canines, however he masks this often, although his wide grin always seems to make people somehow uneasy. He's aged himself somewhat, looking more a man of 24 then 17, but this also is variable and controllable.

Family: In the Fae world, lots... in our universe, none

Alignment: I wouldn't say he has one, although he does try to do what he thinks is right for himself and others.

Weapons:
Katars - Taelyn's melee weapons of choice. His two foot long Katars were made by the Fae world's greatest smith out of single pieces of ore. The craftmanship is like nothing seen on Earth.
Pistols - Raven Mk1 and MK2 Mini-SER Millitary Class Assault Pistols. These little beasts are incredably powerful and are the only prototypes of the weapons in existance.

Weapon Skills: Most of Taelyn's weapon knowledge comes from constant training and growing up in the Fae world following a strict educational regime imposed by his father Arian.
Blades: Arian's favourite, and popular with Taelyn too. Although Taelyn prefers his katars or other twin blades, he is also proficient in two handed weapons and use of sword and shield.
Firearms: "A necessary evil" Arian referred to guns as. Taelyn on the other hand loves them, and is a damn good shot.
Martial Arts: Taelyn's favouite passtime growing up was sparring with bare hands. Some argue he is better then his father ever was.
Fighter Craft: Taelyn's own passion in relatively recent years. When it comes to flying and fighting in small craft, he's hard to beat.

Bio:
In the Antartica battle, Taelyn was caught in a number of blasts and seperated from most of the action. Having little real knowledge of Earth and its weapons seemed to have caught up with him sooner then expected. When things settled, he went to Josephine's wedding and was borred to tears at the Earth version of the custom, but managed to spice things up (and annoy a few of the members) by making passes at the various young ladies there (including Josephine). He appologized of course, and as the others came to learn, Taelyn has his own sense of humor that can get to people at times, but is never meant to harm anyone. Taelyn returned to the jungle and lived with Blair and Abner there until Blair's death. As was said before, all full blooded Fae pay a heavy cost to exist in our world, Blair gave up natural Fae immortality.
Taelyn never had a love for business and the administrative duties of his father's companies was put into the hands of Taelyn's aunt Emilla (his mother's sister) who had come to Earth to learn about the people and secretly look after Taelyn from afar. Taelyn was the owner of the company in name, but liked to remain out of the public eye. When companies began to merge all over the globe to stay competative and manage the dwindling resources, Emilla quickly merged all the companies she had control of into what became and has remained, the Earth's top developer of new electronic technology, The Arian Universal Syndicate (AUS). AUS develops products ranging from computers, to robotics, to weaponry. The AUS true claim to fame was the discovery of Starrite, which led to the Starrite Energy Reactor (SER). A clean source of energy, able to produce as much power as fifty large nuclear power plants, using only the space equal to a small house. The problem is, most companies on Earth refuse to replace their outdated pollution causing methods of processing with SER-based technology because of the costs involved. Starrite itself is a very versatile metal, with mysterious properties. It gives off no radiation signatures, although it seems slightly warm to the touch and obviously is a source of incredable energy. The metal is also very hard, over ten times stronger then diamond. The source of Starrite is a secret, as it doesn't appear to exist anywhere on earth, and the element itself is property of the AUS.
When the pollution on Earth became too much, the AUS set a record as the first company to every completely leave a planet. The AUS opperates now entirely from giant space stations. There is a branch office orbiting Earth, Mars, and the Moon. No one knows which station is the head office or what goes on inside. The AUS seems to always operate at incredable efficiency, and never hires new personal. Durring the War, the AUS provided weaponry to the SCA while giving the appearance of nutrality so as not to be a target. The AUS stations are some of the most heavily armed ever made though, and some wonder how well a fleet would fair against them. After the war, the AUS struck a deal with the SCA, and removed themself from Earth rule entirely, gaining status as a seperate and independant power in the universe.
The AUS continues to publish various high tech goods to the market of all three worlds, although what the company is really about and what secrets they hide is anyone's guess.
Emilla has always supported Taelyn, and being the official owner has made Taelyn one of the richest, even if unknown, people in the universe. He drops in on Jean and Abner, as well as Emilla only on occation, often dissapearing for years at a time. He eventually did become friends with Josephine, somewhat to Jean's chagrin, through a similarity they share... they are both young immortals and children of immortals. He drops in on her more then the others, but finds her daily life far too borring, so soon dissapears once again. No one has seen Taelyn though in this era for the last few years, until now.

"This demon is a friend of yours?" The assassin asked still holding his sword in the ready position.

Other: Scientists went to the moon and discovered the alien ruins there, but found very little material to actually study. The site has since been examined over and over and eventually forgot about, although scholars still speculate to its origins. When colonies on the moon began to appear, the site was made a tourist attraction for anyone to see, however special clearance is needed to go up close.

OK I think's that about it, might have missed a few details but if its anything important I'm sure it will come up.

*Taelyn laughs returning Abner's hug*

Good to see ya too Abner, geeze its only been what...
*Taelyn counts off on his fingers*
hmm... whoa 4, 5 years? heh, maybe I shoulda wrote or something. Anyway yeah good news, courtesy of auntie's company. Seems the AUS has a few things you old boys might like to know about.

*He shoots a glance over to Gattsu*

I still don't trust him... seems odd. How did he get here from his time anyway?

*He changes to Japanese... he's fluent in it, but never could do the accents like his dad.*

Relax, I'm no threat to anyone here. I'm friends with these guys. And trust me I'm no demon, although I've been called worse.

*He laughs again and pulls the old silver cigarette case out of his jacket.*

Where was I... oh yeah good news.

*He pulls out a small disk, commonly used to transport visual data.*

Where's your player Jean? This disk is what I've come to show you.

*Jean gathers a bottle of a very rare(esspecially on this planet) vintage and four glasses. He explains the situation in japanese to the samuri. Pouring the drinks he allows himself to finally sit. A party of four. it has almost always been like this. Jean takes a drink reminding himself what tends to happen to the host.* We are of course all pleased to see you here. You have proven a loyal friend. While your motives are questionable I know my daughter is an adult and I trust her. On top of that I trained her myself, I know what she can do when she does not want to be touched. One comment on her wanting it and you'll need to change into non-incinerated clothing. You said that you have news?
