Cyberaptor froze when he heard the clicking sounds of a weapon behind him. Slowly, and suspiciously, he turned around as Phantron made the gun disappear.

Cyberaptor: You've heard of...of, the name I just mentioned? It seems that, to your systems, the name has been classified as an enemy. We aren't going to be enemies, are we?

Cyberaptor's irritation stopped as soon as he saw how Phantron felt, about her involuntary reaction.

Cyberaptor: Oh...

Cyberaptor was quiet for a moment.

Cyberaptor: You are...controlled by independent programs? So you did not mean for that to happen...what is your story, Phantron? How did you get here?

Cyberaptor still didn't seem to remember their encounter in the mine, just barely a day ago.

Speaking for Phantron, as she was very unhappy looking, Snpies tried to help remedy the system as best he could.

"Phantron.. Is bipolar. I think that there is a lesser soul running on her CPU, which is causing problem for her, like the gun movement, which of course was not her intention. Scans showed that her CPU was suppposedly unable to run a bipolar soul, but if it can run background tasks like the gun controller, then it can certainly run a bipolar soul. Phantron, the reason the scans showed up negative was probably the lesser you. Look, Don't worry about it too much. you and I can work together to help you, and maybe Cyberaptor can help you too."

Looking at Cyberaptor, Snipes sent him a look that said 'It's not her fault'. Turning back to Phantron, Snipes placed his hand under her chin and made her look into his eyes..

"Phantron, It's okay. Cheer up."

Phantron had a warm feeling as Snipes touched her... yes, everything will be okay.

Phantron: "You... you're right."

Phantron (real) *thinks* No, it won't.

Phantron: "Huh? What?... what did you say? Who said... that?"

Phantron (real) *thinks* Well, I guess that now that I'm in the open, there's no need trying to hide.

Suddenly, Phantron caught on fire, all by herself!... but this was not a natural fire... these were dark, cold purple flames. Phantron's eyes seemed to change for some reason...

Phantron: "A lesser soul... a lesser soul! Hahahaha... hahahaha... HAHAHAHAHA!!!"

Phantron laughed... laughed... and laughed...

Phantron: "What a worthless copy... but as usual, you can count on Profound Idea's pawns to screw up my plans! Hmph! This stupid computer can't understand that in this world, there is NOTHING but power. Hapiness? Love? Justice? Inventions created by the weak to justify their fKitten Yiffer!"

Phantron turned to Cyberaptor.

Phantron: "I am the one they call the Golden Demon, the Destroyer of Worlds!... and this world shall be next! There is nothing you, or any of Profound Idea's pawns can do this time! I shall destroy all life! I will purge this pathetic world of the abomination know as life!"

Phantron's flames grew even larger!

Phantron: "DESTROY!!! SUFFER!!! DIE!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!"

Then, Phantron shot a gigantic beam of dark energy toward Cyberaptor. The beam was incredibly powerful and if it connects, it will most probably send Cyberaptor flying on a long, LONG distance and will inflict MASSIVE damage.

Her eyes were seemingly filled with flames of hatred. She looked so totally insane, so totally maniacal and psychopatic... she was truly the antithesis of the Phantron Snipes had seen before.

"I think not. You may be in control, but your feeling are at their peak. The feelings of love that the Phantron I know as real are stronger, and she may be lesser, but if she still exists, She'll see THIS!"

With that, Snipes jumped into the way of the beam, saving Cyberaptor. The beam was blocked, but from where Snipes had been, a large explosion erupted. When the smoke Cleared, Snipes was nowhere to be found.

ooc: Snipes is not dead. No-one should be able to figure this out in the story, but Snipes dropped a grenade, which caused the explosion while Snipes had hidden in the trees, cloaked to everyone.

Phantron smiled.

Phantron: "Heh! What a fool! Well, that saves me time!"

Phantron walks toward Cyberaptor, decided to kill him unharmed this time. She will be able to feel the warm contact of the blood with her armor. Hehehe... she was going to enjoy it, the sadistic psychopath she is!

...however, she begun to slow down for some reason and an intense, painful feeling begun to rise within her...

Phantron: "What the... what's happe... happening to me?!? I..."

Suddenly, the flames changed color! They turned into real flames and Phantron began to REALLY burn!

Phantron: "NOOOOOO!!! AAAAAAAAARG!!!"

The flames went out. Phantron wasn't damaged much... physically anyway.

She fell on her knees and cried. Soon enough, the ground around her was covered with water... she just cried on and on... and much to the real Phantron's dismay, she shared the pain.

Phantron (real) *using telepathy*: "Wh... what is th... that feeling?... is... is that..."

Phantron's eyes returned to normal...

Phantron (real) *using telepathy*: "...love?... but... I can't love... I am... a machine..."

Unable to bear this, Phantron's original self fell into a state of deep sleep.

Cyberaptor was completely unprepared for Phantron's attack...but Snipes blocked it for him! The explosion rattled his senses, and when the smoke cleared, Cyberaptor couldn't see Snipes anywhere. After a quick analysis of the situation, Cyberaptor figured that Snipes probably wasn't dead...but he didn't truly know what happened to him. Cyberaptor angrily turned to Phantron.

Cyberaptor (aside): So you are the real Phantron, hiding behind a guise. It is apparent, now, that you are an enemy. I don't know how you know about Profound Idea, but if you declare him your foe, then I am your foe!
Cyberaptor (aloud): Snipes! If you are here, you better respond quickly! Phantron is too dangerous to be allowed to live, and I must destroy her while I still have an advantage! I'm sorry if this goes against your feelings for her, but you must realize that I am doing this for the greater good! Do not try to interfere!

Cyberaptor's antenna made a green beam, aimed at his claw...it was creating something.

Firing one shot just before Cyberaptor while phantron wouldn't notice, Snipes sent a message to cyberaptor.

"Stop. The real Phantron is asleep again, your enemy isn't available right now. The Phantron you're seeing is the one you originally met. See how the flames have gone out? Oh, and don't look for me. I'll make sure that Phantron is helped, even if it has to get worse before it gets better. For my sake, Please comfort her, cyberaptor."

Slowly Asha'man turned to Vincent.

Asha'man: It's been a long time, but now you die.

Vincent: Why have you been hunting me? It's been so long since it all began. But I will finish it. You are the one who will die today.

Asha'man: Whoever these two are they can go. But you...err...must be terminated.

Suddenly Vincent could see a clear weakness, he had never tried anything like this before. It was as simple as talking to an old friend.

Vincent: Do you remember the old days? Do you remember when you had full control? When we...

Suddenly Asha'man lifted both arms and out of the gauntlets on both arms he fired three Energy Discs(making a total of six), wich were glowing a light blue color. These were virtually unstoppable. Dispite the speed of the discs he kept pace with them easily and ran directly behind them.

Un-sheathing his sword Vincent got ready for a fight for his life...but suddenly a severe pain hit him. It wasn't from anything physical but from something far away. Suddenly he was where he should be. He was at the exact place he had encountered Phantron for the first time.

Suddenly he could see himself. And Blue and Kyle, Then Phantron. He remembered all of this, yet it was happening again. He saw her leave he saw her Nightmare Demon. He could see clearly the maggots vaporive when they hurled themselves at the Nightmare Demons body...them finally he saw his firebird wrap itself around the Nightmare Demon...and they were both killed. But as they burned out of existence there was something there. An Egg!!! It was no longer surrounded by light. I was evil.

Suddenly it began to crack open...and as it did black flames exploded in every direction. Destroying everything for atleast 300 yards in every direction.

He couldn't see what had come out...but somehow he could tell that this hadn't happened yet. And he had seen it so that he could stop it. He would have to go back...

But then suddenly he was back and opening his eyes...

______________________


ooc: I've leaving what Vincent sees when he opens his eyes up to Kyle and Blue...be warned Asha'man is quite powerful.

Cyberaptor made an irritated sigh.

Cyberaptor: Come to your senses! Such a thing cannot be cured! I may not remember my original mission, but I know that my master would not want to allow such an evil a chance to escape! I have her cornered now, I must act!

His antenna was finishing its work...though Cyberaptor's determination was weakening...

"LISTEN TO ME! Phantron can be cured. All she needs is help. If she could seal away her evil side, Phantron could be chaged permanently. Cyberaptor, you wanted to repay me for saving you. You don't have to come with us, but I'm telling you that in order to repay the favor you must not harm Phantron. Do you hear me?! why else would I give my life for her? To watch her destroy the earth? You're the one who needs to come to their senses."

About ten or fifteen feet from where Cyberaptor was standing Daiel looked at them curiously from a bush. He had no idea what was going on...Suddenly something grabbed him by the back of the shirt and lifted him into the air. Levi'athan. The hunter who had been sent after him like Asha'man had been sent after his brother, Vincent.

He was completely covered in pure black clothing that seened to create shadows of their own and were a part of those shadows.

Levi'athan lifted him till they were face to face.

Daiel: Good to see you again old friend.

Levi'athan: Time for termination.

Levi'athan had been lifting Daiel with his left hand and now the energy blade that was glowing a light blue color appeared out of his right gauntlet. He would have killed Daiel instantly but suddenly they were both engulfed in flames. Daiel reeled backward as he hit the ground but soon recovered and turned to run toward where he had seen the strange people.

Levi' was only moderately damaged because though he looked like a normal Protoss Warrior he had slowly been changed piece by piece into an automated life form. Using powers un-know to him to retain his spirit from finally escaping to the after-life. He wasn't in control of himself. He had known the ones he now hunted. Soon Asha'man would be forcefully changed into exactly the same thing.

Until his spirit could break through he would be nothing more than a killing machine. And he had little remorse so that didn't bother him as much as the lack of self-control over his own body. Which was a terrible thing for one who had been taught since birth that self-control is the most important thing one could learn.

Suddenly he found himself directly behind Cyberaptor. Scanning the area Daiel was nowhere to be found...

ooc: Obviously Levi'athan is the picture on the right of my Signature.

As Snipes spoke, Cyberaptor stared solemnly at the object forming in his hand...apparently, it was a very powerful bomb, strong enough maybe to harm Phantron considerably...but...

Cyberaptor growled and tossed the harmless half-finished bomb to the ground, and blasted it with his gunclaw. His antenna folded back into his computer pack.


Cyberaptor: There is good in Phantron. Although it may not be the primary personality inside of her, she is still changeable...and Profound Idea would want me to aid this distressed soul, not terminate it. Phantron still has a chance to prove herself as good.

Cyberaptor walked toward Phantron.

Cyberaptor: All right, Snipes, I will attempt to care for Phantron, and avoid confrontation.

Cyberaptor still didn't notice Levi'athan behind him.

Kyle: Yo, alien dude! What's the matter with you, just teleporting here and attacking our partner?
Blue: Partner?

Kyle stepped between Vincent and Asha'man.

Kyle: Let him alone, mac, or you

Phantron continued to sob.

She just cried on and on and on... It was so strange... tears came out of the metallic eyes and covered the gold-plated face...

Altought it was more than obvious than no biological componement could be found on Phantron, she seemed different from robots the others had met before...

Even the Reploids, who were believed to be basically biological beings made of metal, didn't truly felt "alive". They acted like living beings, they seemed animated with life, they had the movements, the toughts even of life... but there was no life. That unknow glow within them, the "soul", could not be found... they were empty. They were mere machines...

...and yet, machines can be alive... and it seemed that technology was not a factor for there were primitive robots that had the glow of life. They had... the soul.

Phantron had this glow and while to most beings, seeing a robot cry would seem unnatural... in her case, it looked completely natural... which was totally illogical and yet, it was happening.

Pulling out his pistol, Snipes armed it with a small receiver/bug that he hoped pahntron wouldn't notice when he fired at her with it. Firing, Snipes aimed it by her ears, so that he could 'contact' her, in order to anonymously help her. Hiding, Snipes called through the bug.

"Phantron, can you hear me? Please, I didn't die for nothing..."

Suddenly, Phantron heard a voice...

Phantron: "Sn... Snipes?!?"

She stopped crying. She stood up... she looked as if she was in some kind of trance... and then, she began to glow...

A strange sound wave was emitted as Phantron was bathed in a pure sky-blue light...

Phantron was resonating... the Soul Resonance had been activated as Phantron's feeling of love grown to maturity.

If the feeling would appear to be present within Snipes, then he would Resonate too and the Soul Resonance would be completed.

...Opening his eyes all Vincent could see was Kyle's back. Standing slowly he could remember nothing of what he had seen. Could he have blacked out. What an embarressment. He would regain himself soon enough though.

Walking around Kyle Vincent let his right hand, which still held his sword, rest by his side while he raised his left with his palm pointing at Asha'man. Directly in from of the each disc appeared a small...tear...in mid air. As each disc passed through the were instantly terminated.

Vincent: Now it's my turn.

Taking hold of his sword with both hands he lifted it into the air, and flipped it so that it faced the ground. Then jamming the blade into the ground he summoned one of the few things that he disliked using.

Vincent: Arachnid Ambush

It was barely above a whisper but even as the words came out of his mouth a flurry of spiders ranging from the length of a fore-arm to the size of a torso jumped out off the trees around Asha'man, others grabbed at his legs from under ground.

Asha'man: It will take more than bugs to stop me!

Barely even slowing he used the Energy Blade to slice the giant arachnids seemingly falling from thin air. But as a particularly large one jumped out of the ground and hit him in the chest he faltered and fell.

In a matter of seconds he had sliced off it's head, but it was seemingly too late. He lashed out madly but the kept coming. And getting bigger.

Pulling his sword out of the ground Vincent turned to Kyle and Blue.

Vincent: Hurry this summon will not last forever and he is not vulnerable to their poisons. We must hurry if we are to distance ourselves before he has killed them all. How fast can you travel. If you can teleport then we must do so. If not...I'm afraid there is no way for us to run fast enough to escape...

Vincent cut off as Asha'man bit out one of the spiders eyes just before it could bite him in the neck. He looked hungry...

ooc: However Kyle and Blue decide to get away should will be okay with Vincent so rather than waiting for me to post again just assume he co-operates.

___________________________


Levi'athan moved slowly toward the opening but stopped just before he entered. There was something...not right here. Though he had no emotions such as fear or curiosity, maybe they would help him to finally end this hunt.

He was cloaked in shadows but that did little more than hide his true form in broad daylight, and didn't serve much of a purpose in the prospect of stealth and he could probably be seen easily.

"I guess you could call me that."

Closing his eyes under the lcoaking field, Snipes smiled to himself. Yes, there had been something happening with Phantron, but Snipes figured that it would be best to assume that it had something to do with the evil Phantron and decided it wise to ignore it.

'But at the same time, I don't know if you could. I don't really have a physical form anymore, after all."

Suddenly Levi'athan realized that one of the two were glowing. That didn't quite seem right, so he began scanning it thoroughly. He didn't know what he would find but hopefully it was be useful in his hunt. Walking so that he was side to side with Cyberaptor he hardly noticed him, and continued scanning.

ooc: If Cyberaptor or somebody doesn't notice him now then they never will...

The spiders continued to swarm Asha'man, getting bigger and bigger, but fewer each second. They had him trapped, but it was obvious that this wouldn't last much longer.

Kyle: Yeah, I agree with Vincent, let's scram! Watch out, everyone, I'll teleport us away from here!
Blue: WHOOOaaaaaah, Kyle, I'm all for escaping here, but I don't think your teleporting is the best way to move us around, especially THREE of us. We'll end up inside a wall or something!
Kyle: Fine, that's out. Let's use your warp pad, then!
Blue: No, that's only big enough for two people, not three.
Kyle: Well, we need to think of something besides just running out of here!

Asha'man was emerging from the spidery trap!

Blue: No, actually, I think running is exactly how we'll get out of here!

Without an explanation, Blue pulled out two white tennis shoes from his backpack, and slipped them on!

Kyle: Blue, what're you going to do?
Blue: I'll break the sound barrier, if I'm good enough!

Blue grabbed onto Vincent and Kyle with his wings, and took of running at insanely fast speeds, leaving Asha'man in the dust behind them! Once Asha

Phantron was seemingly ignoring everything that was happening around her.

She resonated again... if Snipes didn't resonated back, it would mean that either:

1-he has no soul
2-he doesn't like her back

Phantron's real personality, her, had noticed Blue, unlike her other personality, which was resonating.

The fact that Phantron's real personality had stopped resonating and that only the one that truly loved Snipes did altered the resonance, causing it to turn dark-blue unstead of sky-blue...
