Stacice dreamed, she could see Dracoon, as he'd always been, right in front of her, and everyone else part of this horrible fight. A demon of pure fire was in front of Dracoon, Odin and Fenrir had somehow been wounded during the fight, each of them were to the side of the demon of fire. The demon let out a horrible cry and the air began to burn, pressing towards everyone. Dracoon stayed in front though, and the burning air never made it pass him. There was a huge reverbration and every was slammed into the wall. Dracoon stood though, and his armor was burning off, and he glowed with a blue light. It seemed like forever that Dracoon stood against the assualt of this fire demon, then the demon won and Dracoon fell to the ground... Stacice's head was dizzy and she was confused, but she opened her eyes as the dream ended, she was in an improvised lean-to and could hear the wind blowing heavily. She could make out Dracoon's shadow outside the lean-to.

Stacice: "Dracoon... what happened?"

Dracoon: "We were seperated, it must have been a week by now, most are probably just waking up."

Stacice: "What...? Where are we?"

Dracoon: "A mirrior world... a mirrior version of Kansas to be exact. The wind and weather are very erratic, to much for the normal world. We need to be careful... and you need to keep resting."

Stacice: "I feel fine though..."

Dracoon: "You had a poison in you, as does everyone else I'm sure. I took care of it, but it weakened you. The poison would've made you stronger and stronger, but eventually, your heart would burst because of the increase in power. No creature could survive with it for to long, but while it is active, you can't be killed unless you destroy the brain."

Stacice was kind of shocked, but she laid back down, it was probably wise to trust Dracoon.


Star: "Did you get it all out...?"

Nino: "Yeah... we have to be careful though..."

Nino and Star sat in a cave, things were getting serious now. They'd been poisoned and suspected everyone else had too. They had to find everyone, or they'd all die.


Fenrir: "I can't believe it..."

Fenrir shaked with rage, he had killed Odin, the bullet went straight through his heart. He was going to finish it by killing himself, it would put the world into balance, but even a head shot couldn't kill him. He knew that Odin was alive, it coursed through his blood with his rage.


???: "Were you able to remove the poison in her blood?"

Things were quiet and Serra could only listen, she felt incredibly weak.

???: "Yes... I did, but... she won't recover for a month at least..."

???: "Speed it up."

The second voice became paniced.

???: "But sir, I can't, she'll be permantly weak if I try that."

???: "That is good, we don't want our new queen to be stronger than our king."

???: "Yes sir..."


Luke woke up all at once, seeing that he was in a jail cell with Maya, he knew what happened and what to do.

Luke: "We're getting out."

Maya: "I've tried... we can't..."

Luke sighed. A guard noticed he was awake and left. in a few minutes he came back with a very big bandit.

Bandit Boss: "You two! You know how to work!?"

Luke and Maya just stared at him. He looked over them again and stepped into the cell.

Bandit Boss: "I know you two! Yeah, I remember!"

The Bandit Boss took out a knife and in one swift attack, stabbed Luke. Luke fell down and Maya rushed to him. The Bandit Boss just laughed and laughed.

Bandit Boss: "You deserve that punk, you are the one that put my army to sleep while we were going to do a raid."

Luke whistled a tune, and he and Maya vanished and reappeared outside the base. Maya grabbed Luke and ran as fast as she could, they made to a hill, arrows raining down on them. Maya looked all around, bandits were everywhere now. She smiled at Luke and his eye's widened. She dropped him and started to glow. Luke glowed brightly for a second than disappeared. Maya sighed as the bandits walked up the hill to capture her. She glowed red and moved quickly, making weird movement, fire exploded from each place her foot landed. Fire soon filled the air, but far away, Luke knew Maya was dead.

As Ex continued her advance, she suddenly felt that something was wrong...

Dark Weapon: "Unknow substance detected. You have been poisoned."

Ex *thinks* What? I tought I had been immunised against...

Dark Weapon: "Your original self was. You are not..."

Ex *thinks* Stop it right there. This body is not immunised? That's... unfortunate. Can you remove the poison?

Dark Weapon: "I have analysed it... it's some kind of corruptive toxin. The kind of things they use to create zombies. You know, give incredible strenght, remove the soul..."

Ex *thinks* That would probably not remove MY soul... but I won't tempt fate. Anyway! I can recover my power by myself! Remove it.

Dark Weapon: "Good. All you have to do is cut yourself and I'll remove it... but while the cut will only remove the poison and nothing else, your flesh will still be exposed and well... exposure to such a cold is not advised."

Ex *thinks* So... we'll need to make it to a base... can you slow down the effects of the poison?

Dark Weapon: "I don't know... I'll try."

...

During this time...

...

NeoBowser had almost reached a base. He could see lights trought the constant snow storm...

However, suddenly, NeoBowser felt an incredible yet familiar pain...

NeoBowser *thinks* Huh? What the... I feel as if a part of my memory had been removed...

NeoBowser stared at the Trident. It was brighter than ever, proof that Evil had grown... but the Evil force came from outside. NeoBowser was not what had made the Trident stronger... and this worried him.

NeoBowser *thinks* I hope that this great light didn't do anything crazy to me... but I should be especting anything. Once in this base, I shall seek out the base's hospital or whatever and then, I'll analyse myself. If I have been infused with something weird, I must remove it. Cannot afford to be sick while I'm about to go on a journey, destroying entire civilizations in a sweep of terror and plunging this world into darkness as the inhabitants of this pathetic world fall under the spell of Evil!

OOC: Details such as "Bel suddenly warped in through so-and-so," or "Suddenly, so-and-so happened, as Bel appeared", or something along those lines would've been nice. Everything must have a reason. But it's too late now, and I'm flexible, so...

The Chao suddenly starts acting crazy. "Cha cha cha!!!"

Schwa feels a touch of anxiety jolt through him... Solaris has a knack for detecting trouble.

"What is it, Solaris? Tell me."

"P-- Poi-- son."

"What!? Poison!? Who's poisoned!?"

Solaris taps himself, Schwa and Bel very quickly.

"I'll fix that. Bel, this may hurt... Status Purge!" (echo effects)

As Schwa uses his move, a powerful electric shock affects all 3 characters, damaging them but removing status conditions.

"Wow... Yes, I sure felt different a moment ago now that I think about... Ugh, I don't... feel so well... Feel weakened..."

Schwa tries standing up, but wobbles backward and slams back-first into the mountain wall. He then loses his cookies a few times, then falls to the ground, half-unconscious.

What happened was that the poison was lodged heavily in Schwa's right arm, where the Living Assets in him are contained. By removing the poison, he weakened the Living Assets in him, weakening himself at the same time. (It's like trying to remove Spyware lodged in the registery files.) Bel shouldn't be nearly as bad as Schwa is, but either way their journey off Everest is currently delayed.

The snow had finally begun to let up... Heading south was obviously a good idea, and the cold was even becoming bearable at this point, thought Janus.

Janus: "You guys alright back there?"

Garro: "Still a little cold..."

Kalar: "I'll survive. Why are you, of all people, helping us?"

Janus turned toward his two enemies, and suddenly deactivated Red's Fire. Instantly Kalar and Garro collapsed to the ground, hit by an impossibly cold Siberian climate. They weren't used to it, that was for sure. Janus turned Red's Fire back on, and continued walking, as Kalar and Garro stumbled behind.

Janus: "That's why. I can note some life signs up ahead, there's got to be some kind of settlement. Once we're healed up and out of this snow, we can give flying a shot again. Or book a flight to some civilization, if worse comes to worst."

Something stirred inside of his body just then... Something familiar, yet not entirely so. He felt like he was healing himself, but the healing was only making him weaker... Odd... Janus paid it no mind, and simply continued onward.

???: "So, how are you feeling today ma'am?"

Luna sat are her "throne" smiling as the thugs approached her. The gangs had been very unorganized, and it had only taken a pretty face and a little intelligence to bring them all together. Luna had felt weird since she woke up, a doctor had examined her, and eventually a magic healer had exmained her and found trace amounts of ineffective poison. The healer removed it and Luna was back to a normal day, well, as normal as it had been this week. She wondered what everyone else was doing, but she'd be fine for now.

Luna: "Much better actually, anything planned or is the entire city under our control?"

???: "The city has been taken, everyone has given their power to you."

Luna: "This is very good news, maybe we should celebrate, give everyone a free day?"

???: "I'm sure they'd appriceate it, but are you sure thats wise, so soon? Some aren't completely loyal to you..."

Luna: "They'll be fine Agerd. If they try and betray me, I'll take care of them myself after all."

Luna smiled on the sentence, Agerd giving her a smirk. Everyone really thought that she was weak, but they knew she was smart and knew how to bring people together. Now, the city was ran by a single unified gang, and most of the town was part of the gang, those who weren't were putting up a strong counter attack, but they would never be able to win.

Agerd: "Allow me to deal with them, I wouldn't want to see you have to kill someone."

Luna: "You're right, and I'll probably be to busy to take care of it..."

Luna thought about how everything was turning out. She was going to be enjoying a life of luxery soon, and not many people who care to try and stop her. She knew some of the former leaders would try and make choices, but she also knew they didn't have enough support to do anything substantial.


Odin ran through the plains and the forests as fast as he could. He could sense two things that were familier, one he was running away from and the other, he didn't know what the other was, but he craved it, it had power, power which he needed. For 5 days he traveled, putting him a week from when he had come to this planet. He arrived at a temple...

Monk: "Oh, hey there traveler."

Odin: "There are temples still in this world?"

Monk: "Yes... we had secluded ourselves from the rest of the world."

Odin: "Mind if I stay the night here?"

Monk: "Yes, we have many extra rooms."

Odin kept on guard the entire time, but slept easy.


Serra woke up, very dizzy. She tried to look around, but she couldn't.

Serra: "Am I blind, ugh, what happened..."

Serra waited a very minutes, hoping her vision would come back, but it didn't. Then she started to feel the air blow over her, it only took her a second after that to realize she was blind folded. She took it off and wondered why she even had it on.

Serra *thinking*: "Why does it feel like Dracoon just shot me... I feel so weak... don't think I can even stand up, something happened to me..."

Serra stayed in the bed for about an hours, she looked up as someone came in.

???: "Oh? You're awake?"

Serra nodded the best she could, still feeling incredibly weak.

???: "Excellent! The prince will be exited!"

Whoever came in left in a hurry and Serra was left to wonder what he was talking about.


Luke stumbled as he walked. He kept walking, and walking, no life, no hope, nothing seemed left in him, but he kept walking, and falling, and getting back up again, and just walking.

OFF: I'll assume some time has passed...

____________________________________________________________________

It had been a while since NeoBowser had extracted the poison from his veins now and frankly, it was the greatest gift he was ever given...

NeoBowser: "Thug! Front!"

An unnaturally strong-looking man obeyed NeoBowser's orders... and he wasn't the only one. NeoBowser had a few persons around him that were like this unfortunate man...

NeoBowser: "Heh! I surprise myself sometimes! This is genious! This poison turns those fools into living weapons that are just so easy to control! That dark force must like me for giving me such a gift! Anyway... according to what that child said to me before I ripped his head off and set it on fire, using it as a torch, the next city must be just beyond here and..."

BAM!

The man NeoBowser had sent foward fell back, to NeoBowser's feet, a bullet hole in the head.

NeoBowser: "Just as espected. The next city is completely overrun by bandits. I bet that I'll find a lab there where I'll be able to make duplicates of that fantastic poison... and then, I'll take advantage of the chaos to possess a few more souls! Heeheehee!"

...

During this time...

...

By the time Ex reached the closest base, the poison had taken effect... and it had became increasingly hard for her to think altought she felt the cold less and less...

Then, finally, she reached the base...

Ex *thinks* Must... get... rid... poison...

This was the only tought the poison couldn't erase...

Ex *thinks* Must... get... rid... POISON!!!

Ex then slashed her left arm with Dark Weapon. She didn't heard Dark Weapon screaming to her not to do this... that it was unsafe to do so in such a cold... but she didn't cared or should I say, she was no longer intelligent enough to be able to care or not.

The poison was instantly expelled out of her body at the same time as quite a bit of blood... and the cold caused her to freeze insideout almost instantly.

Ex fell down and lost consciousness... relieved that the poison was gone and that her mind was coming back... but not sure that she would ever awaken now that she had begun to sleep...

Schwa is still down.

"My-- pow-- wer-- ris-- sdim-- min-- nish-- hing..."

Solaris quickly comes to his side.

"Cha cha..." he says sadly, knowing Schwa won't last too long in this state. Solaris then turns to Bel.

"Can-- you-- heal-- S-c-h-w-a." he says very slowly. He doesn't speak English very well at all; his first language is Chao.

Odin woke up in the middle of the night, a strange aura attracting him. It was under him, he knew that. He looked around the temple, finding no way down, no life was detectable either, which was incredibly odd.

Odin: "Something..."

Odin stepped onto a wood floor and it broke through, the armor he was still wearing making his weight a lot heavier than a normal humans. It was because of this odd twist of fate, that he escaped from a fight. Something floated over the hole and kept going, it smelled strongly like blood. Odin felt more power around him and began to search around under the temple.


Nino looked at Star, he was still asleep. She sighed, relieved of this lull of peace. She didn't want to fight anymore, she just wanted to go home.

Nino: "Why... are we still fighting...?"

Time Elemental: "Its because you love him. He fights because of his pride and you fight because of your love for him."

Nino looked up, shocked. This creature had been very evil. Star had told her what had happened and why Star wasn't as powerful as he thought he should be. He also told her that the time elemental was banished to never return.

Time Elemental: "Yes... its been a long while since me and him shared bodies, and I miss it. His feelings and brain were so alive with emotion, its something I wish I could go back and enjoy it..."

The time elemental sat down next to Nino, she didn't move, but was obviously very frightened.

Time Elemental: "Don't worry... I'm only here to help you... This planet is a copy of the planet earth. Out casts who the diety took pity on are now here. Many haven't changed their ways, while others, such as myself, only wish for a peaceful life. Demons exist here too though, because another diety decided they didn't belong on the true planet... So, we must fight to save ourselves, and hope that one day, we will be free of these demons, and maybe have a chance at true peace..."

Janus: "Finally! Civilization in its purest form! Gentlemen, I present to you..."

A brilliant, hypermodern cityscape lay before the three warriors. Flashing lights crossed the night skies, neon signs glowed and automobiles raced the streets as they could do nothing but gaze in awe and relief at their expedient journey.

Garro: "Moscow... An excellent place to begin, I'd say."

Janus narrowed his eyes and glared at Garro.

Janus: "Begin nothing. You want to help, you're in til the end, for sure. Don't forget. We need to find Fenrir. Best way to do that is to get a sense of where he is in the world right now, as well as Star and Schwa, assuming they're even in this world at all. It's become plainly obvious that we've been separated. I'm guessing Schwa will be giving off some kind of psionic signal that we can track, or I can track anyway. And Star.... He'll... He'll...."

Janus felt something. Something odd, a presence he'd not felt since...

"He'll turn up... Some Time or another."

That... thing. It was back. He honestly hoped it hadn't gotten Star yet.

"As for Fenrir... We only really need to watch for the latest leveled city. Or go to Norway. Booking a flight would take too long, though..."

Kalar: "So for now we just wait and see? Sounds like a plan, albeit a dull one."

Garro: "Like there's a better idea. Incompetent boob."

OFF: Going to post Ex's part later actually.

Basically, Ex collapsed after removing the poison from her body and was then captured by the scientists and sent to a research institute.

This short sentance will be made into a full part later.

____________________________________________________________________

NeoBowser stood atop the bodies of his fallen enemies, victorious. Each death filled him with power and already, he was feeling that he was returning to full power... soon, if the Chaos Essence survived under a form or another, he would be able to locate... tought he doubted it. After all, Serra had shattered it with her version of Dark Weapon... but on another hand...

NeoBowser remembered something... the Chaos Essence can be shattered... but it can only truly disappear if certain conditions are met and he's almost sure those weren't met when he was chased from the Chaos Heaven.

...but yet again, he cannot sense the Chaos Essence's presence... not even the presence of a tiny shard. Maybe it truly is gone?... or maybe... maybe it just took another form?

After all, this is a different Possibility and the Laws of Physics works differently. Maybe the Source of all Evils doesn't take the form of the Chaos Essence in this Possibility?

...

NeoBowser snapped out of his toughts. He looked around. The city was in ruins, the bodies of innocents covered the streets...

Yep... a typical victory scene for NeoBowser!

NeoBowser was filled with hapiness... which he found ironic. The Absolute Evil can be happy? The Absolute Evil can love? How very strange... but well, no time to wonder about unimportant matters.

This was far from being NeoBowser's most blatent and glorious victory: a good 25% of civilians and officials escaped the carnage and would live to spread the news of his rise.

If he had the Chaos Essence and the invincibility it bestows upon him, it would be PERFECT for him... but he was no longer invincible and he knew all it took for his power rise to end was a lone ordinary bullet in the head.

As such, he would have to find a way to create decoys, fake NeoBowsers for the enemy to hunt while he hides... and he has to find the other ones, Bel, Ex, Odin, and the others... and terminate them before they can become a serious enough hinderance.

Sure, this is an imaginary world within the Origin Tower... but while the cities he took over were fake, the power he gained from conquering them was real. It is in his interest not to lose all this power becease of a stupid mistake...

Star woke up and saw the time elemental. He just looked for a few seconds then stood up and took his sword out of its sheath.

Star: "Why are you here...?"

Time Elemental: "To help you get to Janus as soon as possible. With Garro and Kalar around..."

Nino: "He's been explaining some things to me too, about how long you were alone..."

Star sighed and put the sword away, Nino looked incredibly sad and it was obvious she'd been crying. She'd heard of everything that'd happened to Star and how much he hated himself before. The point that he betrayed the village and killed everyone had haunted him his entire life, and she knew that there were other Star's still haunted by that, and they would be forever. He'd corrected that flaw though, and made it so it never occured.

Star: "You don't need to worry about it Nino... It was hard, but its ok... The short time I've been with you has made up for that, only two years..."

Nino just looked at the floor.

Star: "Ok... teleport us, theres no reason to stay here..."

The time elemental nodded and Star disappeared first. Near Moscow, he landed in front of Janus, face first in the snow.

Star: "Cold..."

A second later, Nino dropped out of the sky, right on Janus'.

Star: "Always gets the last laugh..."


Odin felt himself sink into the nothingness below him. The dirt under the temple gave way easily when he digged it up, only this emptyness remained. In a second, he could only see one thing, a spear, the spear, the only thing he desired and the thing that he would make sure killed Fenrir.

Odin: "Gungir..."

Odin grabbed the spear, just as Fenrir walked in to a bar in Moscow, trying to relax. It didn't take him long to hear about a new gang leader, a woman, who had taken control of the city within a few days. Fenrir smiled and already knew who it was.

The cocking of a gun barrel and the shing of a blade later, and Star found himself with a pair of glowing gun barrels pressed against his head, with Nino having the near-transparent blade of a scythe millimeters away from slitting her throat. Kalar and Garro were ready to kill on a word. It was Janus, however, who came to his senses.

Janus: "Stop! Hold! They're friends!"

As the two of them relaxed their weaponry, Janus could only be bewildered at how fast they reacted and how Star and this person whom he could only assume was a companion of his materialized in front of him from out of nowhere. Time energy still flowed around them in a brilliant residue that he knew only he and Star could see at this point. Janus readied his hammer, and Kalar and Garro prepared for battle as well, though for what reason they did not know.

"Wait... Alright, where are you? Come out, I know you had something to do with this!"

It was that damn Time Elemental. Janus thought it had been vanquished, but alas, Dark Phoenix's magic seemed to stretch beyond the simple boundaries of space and time yet again. Unless it was here to help, he had no intention whatsoever of leaving it alive again.

"Grrr! Come on now, or I'll go searching for you! You know I can do it!"

Garro: "Janus, you fool, what in God's name do you think you're doing?"

Janus snapped to attention, and Garro's words pierced him like a spear. It was true. He had no clue what he was doing at this point. Only that Star was here, along with this strange woman he'd never formally met, and that Schwa was still lost, as well as Ex and Fenrir. The three warriors put their weapons down, and Janus went to Star to try to rouse him.

Janus: "Star... is that you? You alive in there?"

He looked over to Nino...

"You, who are you, and how did you two get here?"

Finally, NeoBowser's horde of brutes as well as himself made it to the next city...

They were moving quickly, for NeoBowser always feared that someone would try to kill him. He was feeling great. His recent slaughters filled him with power.. but still not enough to survive a direct impact to the head from a pistol and even less an actual rifle.

As such, if some of the Plague-infested humans would tire or reveal to be too slow, then NeoBowser would use them as food for his hordes and himself.

No use wasting ressources! The children, ederly, and handicaped were hacked in pieces and served to his troops. Human flesh was quite tasty and full of nutrients, NeoBowser knew it and it helped decrease the rate at which his limited stocks of food were used for unfortunately, his zombie-like soldiers were too stupid to drive trucks and the likes. They couldn't even wield weaponry... not that they needed weapons but still...

NeoBowser made a special case with the pregnant children he caught. He didn't know what effects the poison had on children... but he suspected it must cause real monsters to be born!... monsters that, who knows, could be smart enough to drive trucks or, at the very least, wield some basic weaponry?... and even if it wasn't the case, they would probably be stronger than his grunts and wouldn't fall after just two or three bullets (altought the fact that they can take several is already exeptionnal for humans).

If all else fails and that the children are born normal... well, more food for his troops!... or maybe not. Since they would be born with the poison in them and still be normal, it means that an antidote can be developped... he will have to study the children's cell structure when he gets to a town with a research facility. If an antidote can be obtained, then he must create a stronger, improved version of the poison!

Anyway...

NeoBowser smiled... he was thankful that his power had grown a bit. Just like long ago, he is now immune to elemental energies... intense heat or cold still hurts him but the weather of the cold Syberia doesn't seem to be strong enough to hurt him.

As for his hordes, their metabolism had increased to such a level that the heat in their bodies was more than sufficient to allow them to survive to the cold climate.

NeoBowser made a gesture and his troops stopped.

NeoBowser made the same test as before; a lone brute stepping foward to see if people were shot on sight in this city.

The brute was not shot and returned to NeoBowser's side.

It was safe to advance.

NeoBowser entered the city first, followed by his troops. As he walked around, memories of his past life in Ex's Possibility travelled trought his brain...

NeoBowser *thinks* Realistic city of a realistic Dimension... more specifically... I believe this is Moscow!

NeoBowser soon spotted a bar. He slowly cursed the fact that he was STILL unable to draw out energy of thin air... and thus, becease he was hungry, thisty, and wanted to eat something else than just the food his hordes carried, he entered the bar, not knowing he was about to run into Fenrir...

By using a special sound signal, NeoBowser could call his hordes back to him... which was useful when he wanted to do stuff alone. He could simply order them to do as they fit and when NeoBowser is ready to move or needs his hordes' help again, he can use the signal.

NeoBowser made sure to tell his hordes to do as they see fit before entering the bar... exept that he told those that wanted to enter the bar not to. What would it be for him to enter the bar if a gang of his brutes would wreck it under his own nose?

...

Thus, NeoBowser got inside the bar... and spotted Fenrir.

NeoBowser pointed at Fenrir.

NeoBowser: "Fenrir? Heh! It's you!"

NeoBowser smiled and ran toward Fenrir, glad to see the face of a familiar servant friend.

NeoBowser tried to see if there was a place next to Fenrir. If there was one, NeoBowser sat down next to Fenrir... else, he's still standing.

...

During this time...

...

??? #1: "Absolutely... amazing!"

??? #2: "I still can't believe how electricity flows trought this subject..."

??? #3: "What kind of technology is this?"

??? #4: "Look at those scans of the implants, surrounding the heart..."

??? #5: "Hmm... how very weird..."

Slowly Ex begun to wake up...

??? #3: "I'm getting a pick up in the subject's heartbeat!"

??? #2: "Brain activity is on the raise!"

??? #4: "The subject is waking up! What shall we do?"

??? #1: "Let her awaken! I..."

??? #6: "Don't. Send her back in a state of deep sleep."

??? #1: "But... mister the General... This creature... it's obviously alien and we could learn so much from..."

??? #6: "Nonsense. This thing is an abomination. It has human DNA, right? It might have been a human that was abducted and then tortured or something. No need to awaken a monster!"

??? #1: "Hmph! Military personnel! Who's in charge of this laboratory?"

??? #6: "You... but I have my miss..."

??? #1: "Who cares about YOUR mission? We are following greater objectives, here! The priority of this research is above your petty fears, General!"

??? #6: "Why you!"

??? #7: "General! I believe he's right, General! Our gouverment's orders were clear!... and the gouvernement's orders have priority over our feelings!"

??? #6: "Such unsurbodination!... still, you win for now... But I do not like this! This creature doesn't belong here and I doubt it will bring anything good to any of us!"

The one they called "General" left along with the one the General called an "unsurbodinate".

Slowly, Ex opened her eyes... but she couldn't see anything. All she could feel was that she was tied up on some kind of table. Various primitive scanning devices were attached to her.

Dark Weapon: "Looks like we got captured..."

Ex *thinks* Man... everything but that...

??? #2: "Look! LOOK! The brain activity..."

??? #3: "I cannot believe this..."

Dark Weapon: "They sure seem happy."

Ex *thinks* You idiot! OF COURSE they are! They're getting clues that show that we're having a telepathic conversation.

??? #1: "Absolutely... amazing..."

??? #4: "It is as if subject #1 and subject #2 were linked... the nervous signals travel from one brain to another as if they formed only one..."

Dark Weapon: "Well, this will be exciting!"

Ex *thinks* Heh! Just you wait! I know what kinds of experiments they have in mind...

Dark Weapon: "You're just so paranoid! Enjoy the ride I say!"

Ex *thinks* Whatever...

It has been about 45 minutes since Schwa fell down... and he slowly begins to rise. Then, he leaps up suddenly, does a double backflip, lands on his feet, and flares up brilliantly with rainbow ether.

"I'm back... I'm BACK! Wahaha, Schwa's back, boys! Hoo-hah!"

"CHA!!"

Solaris happily hugs Schwa, and Schwa returns the tiny embrace.

"Thanks, Bel... Couldn't 've done it without'cha. Okay, let's get going to civilization."

Schwa summons 2 Psi Discs... One is surrounded in blue ether, one is surrounded in green ether.

"The green one is yours, Bel. Green ether symbolizes Wisdom, and that's your Psi Element Type, even if you aren't a Psi Warrior. Step on it and you can fly it with your thoughts. Just follow me, we're going to rally all our comrades together."

Schwa steps on his Disc, and it levitates. He waits for Bel, the zips away through the mountains.

Not 5 minutes have passes when...


"GRAAAAAARK!!!"

"OhmyGod... Tell me that wasn't..."

Thunderbolts come out of the sky and rain on Schwa. Schwa is knocked out of the air, once again freefalling. But this time he has mana, and he rights himself in midair and levitates in place. His Psi Disc didintegrates for now.

Quick to meet him in the air, seemingly so big it covers the sun and casts a mega shadow, is a gigantic bird with rainbow feathers and a long, hooked beak... Garuda. A mythilogical beast of thunder, wind and storm.


"Garuda! But how!? This is Earth! Garuda doesn't exist on Earth! ...This might not be Earth after all. Bel, fly over here and help me fight this thing! We have to fight in the air, so don't fall off your disc unless you can fly!"

At the same time, Schwa sends out a super-powerful psionic ping to Janus, in hopes it'll reach him. "Janus, this is Schwa. I am at Everest fighting a mythilogical bird. Tell me your location."

Serra got out of the bed while no one was in the room and put on her old clothes and her mother's sword. It was still with her all this time and she could feel its power echoing all around her. She felt fine, great even. She turned towards the door right as it opened, 3 men stood in the door way, jaws dropped.

???: "You can't be standing! Prince Trion! She must be a witch!"

Trion: "Medica! Whats going on? Our priest here doesn't know what he's talking about right!?"

Medica: "She obviously just has a stronger body than we thought."

Preist: "No, she must be a witch!"

Medica: "She's not a wit~"

Serra turned away from them and jumped through the window, their voices being lost behind her.


Stacice: "Ok, I think I'm ready to go..."

Dracoon: "Scans show you're normal, but still take it is best you take it easy. Hop on my back."

Stacice did as Dracoon suggested and Dracoon took of running across the plains.


Star stood up and let the snow fall off of him.

Nino: "I guess that Star hasn't spoken to you in a while... I'm his wife."

Nino walked over to Star and brushed him off a little then noticed the little heat Janus had going.

Nino: "Here let me help..."

Nino seemed to gaze off into the distance as a fire erupted around them, but didn't hurt them. It slowly started to heal up their energy.

Star: "The time elemental isn't here.... He teleported us and left..."


Fenrir looked at Neobowser and smiled. He could see the blood on Neobowser now.

Fenrir: "Neobowser... I'm glad you survived, and got stronger. I don't think our force will want to rejoin us. We might need those zombies..."

Fenrir brought out his gun and killed everyone in the bar in a few seconds.

Fenrir: "Eat up you demon."


Odin walked into the city, sensing Fenrir close by.

Janus recieved Schwa's message... There wasn't anything he could do but...

Janus (thinking) 'Schwa, we're in... Well, oddly enough, we're in Moscow, Russia, right now. If you're on Mount Everest, I'd suggest you get down here. It's not excessively far, and it looks like we all landed in more or less the same basic area on this strange clone of Earth. This is too weird, though.... We've got to be in Origin's tower still. Star and a woman claiming to be his wife have managed to catch up to us, and now we need to find Fenrir, and Ex. I'm sure Dracoon, Bel, NeoBowser, and the rest of them are here too.'

'And Odin, as well....'


(speaking) "Alright, then. You're his wife? I'm Janus. These two bloodthirsty killing machines are Kalar and Garro. There's no more time for introductions. We've---"

A moment... some kind of extreme dark force was in the city, that was for sure.

NeoBowser. And there was a hell of a lot more dark energy in the air than there was before.

The moment Janus realized this, his heart began to pound. NeoBowser was nearby, and he knew people had to be dying off in droves. That kind of energy presented some extreme circumstances.


"----We've got to find NeoBowser. He's here. He's got to be. And if NeoBowser's here, chances are he's hunting for us. Or Fenrir. We've got to get ready soon, or else..."

Garro: "Ha, I feel ready for anything! I could kill an entire army today..."

Kalar: "Yeah, we can take NeoBowser to hell in a handbasket!"

Garro and Kalar were more aggressive than they were before... Janus couldn't help but wonder what was happening to them. He could feel energy coming from them, and at this point the cold didn't seem to affect them at all. Janus shook it off for the time being... There were more important matters at hand.
