Ryo leaned back in his recliner, facing the patio window of his small modular home. Where the premade home was settled was in quite a prime position to overlook the small town of Osaka, even if that wasn't his prime motive when deciding where to plant the home.

Osaka could be swallowed up by hell itself in the next five minutes and he would care no more about the small mountain town. He had much bigger things to think of. MUCH bigger. Not that his Kraft Dinner was boiling over in the next room, but close.

As he fetched the pot of macaroni, he sat at the table, glancing over to the small china cabinet. Within it sat row upon row of stone tablets, adorned with some kind of ancient language. He liked to say it was a conversation piece - even if he secretly knew what each and every one of them said. But he didn't feel particularly like reflecting on their content - not after the news he had received.

"The two have commandeered the starship Argetlahm." Narrin said firmly. "I have released them to their duties. Ultimanium has suggested starting a fighting tournament in downtown New York. I believe that may give him and Ultramagnus the recruiting possibilities they desire."

"This'll get nowhere fast." Ryo shot back. "He can't possibly think of picking up any overgrown wrestler off the street and pitting them against the Magnusi. It's madness."

"I suppose you have a better idea?"


The dimensional fabric was at stake. Damn rights he had a better idea.

He had a whole world of his own to draw from. And, of course, he had friends in high places inside and out. While Ultimanium and Ultramagnus rallied their forces, Ryo would set his own plan in motion. While he couldn't tap into the Seventh Dimension in his current state, his station within the radically deformed Sixth would give him quite a power tap to draw from.

He would construct a dimensionsplitter and lead a party of his own. As much as it startled him to attempt such a thing, he had a nagging suspicion it would be a deciding factor in this war.

Ryo stepped off the mountain path and onto the road leading to Osaka. He slipped on a baseball cap, turning and marching off towards the town in the distance. This would be his legacy... as soon as he found a willing group to share it with.

Star was heading toward Ryo from Osaka with some food supplies. Star noticed that Ryo was concerned with something and spoke without pure bluntness.

"I can tell you need help with something. I can help you if you need it. Now please tell me what you need help with."

Star stopped and waited patently for an answer.

A young man, dressed in a kendo gi, walked off a stopped bus, hoisting his dufflebag back to his shoulder. He quickly started towards the edge of Osaka.

I did not know Sensai was personally teaching Hida-san that level of swordskill. Although I hate the fact I have to use these wooden swords here. I'd much rather use my Master's blades, but that would raise some looks, looks I don't want right now.

The young man made his way out of the town and towards the house he was staying at. Thinking aloud, he said, "I hope Ryo hasn't eaten all the food yet, I'm hungry after training."

Ryo was just about ready to set foot off of the sidewalk not even twenty feet from his house when he was interrupted by Star. He stood for a moment, eventually stepping back and glancing over his shoulder.

"...well, that was well perceived... I guess I could say that I'm in need of assistance in one way or another... and from the sounds of things you're intent on following suit? I would like that very much, really... though, I'm just a bit curious why you'd be standing here, waiting to intercept me just as I leave my house, especially with a statement like that... are you fully aware of exactly what task I intend to find help for?"

He glanced at his watch. "...Rad's running a bit late... traffic must've been tied up..."

"No I am not psychic just a coincidence and I learned a lot about what people look like when they are in need. I just kind of devoloped these things over time. I saw your face and you look very worried about something."

Star still stood in the path probably going to follow whether Ryo asked him to or not, but at least he was nice enough to ask.

"In other words I was buying food for a trip and I came across you on pure accident."

The sound of quick footfalls could be heard as Rad jogged up towards Ryo and the other person Ryo was talking to. The young man skidded to a stop within arms reach of both of them, turned to Ryo, and explained why he was late. "Busses were shut down for a while because of some kind of distrubance." He then shrugged and continued speaking, "Hida-san bolded out of the dojo the moment he heard about it, though."

Rad, not currently bothering to intorduce himself to the other person, dug a stick of pocky out of his pocket and munching on it.

"So that child feels it too. Yes... disturbances are making themselves known, alright... and the rate you people are showing up, it would look like they're closer to truly surfacing, as well." he nodded to Rad. "...it looks like your... training will be occuring a little earlier than I thought."

Ryo glanced up at the sky. Having stepped off his porch he quickly came in contact with the rain that beaded down from the sky. Obviously road conditions had been less than satisfactory in the past while - Ryo grew suspicious again of Star's ambition on a day like this, but he shoved the thought aside. "If I'm not mistaken, tonight there's a storm warning for coastal Osaka. In that case... that is when I'll see to it you get the workout you're looking for. Star, I imagine you can give us a hand? That is, if you're not busy at that time."

Ryo shielded his eyes as thunder crackled off in the distance. He saw very clearly the distortion in the sky.

Suddenly Bel got an idea. Maybe he could trace the other people who felt the same thing...well, IF they did.

Bel: Hmm...that may work. There maybe is risks with it but I gotta try!

Bel starts to concetrate his mind to locate the aura waves of the others

Bel: Ah, there we got two...no, three of them. I wonder if it

"It shouldn't be to hard, and I could use a warm-up."

Star moves from the porch and into the street, by now his is soaking wet.

"Oh look after my pack of food I ussually don't travel without it, but this storm would get it wet."

Star sees another lightning flash and the distortion. Since he can't fly he simpley tries to get under it to examine it a little closer.

More or less Star mumbles to himself, "I remember the old days when I didn't have to worry about this stuff, but I am good with lightning. Lets just hope this has no little surprises."

"...hm..." Ryo glanced up as another flash erupted above him. The storm had seemingly intensified in the span of seconds. In the light he could clearly see something falling rapidly - he stepped back as he could make out the now more-humanoid shape.

"You both wait here... don't move a muscle, got it?" Ryo darted over to a shed nearby, barging into it and coming back out with what looked like a thick metal plank. He threw it to the ground, standing on top of it as it lit up with a bright white aura. He shot a glance to the two as the debris suddenly launched off, taking Ryo with it.

The rain now began to come down harder than before... it would have taken a fine eye to notice it, but the distortions in the air were no longer in sync with the blasts of lightning...

Rad opened his dufflebag and pulled out a small umbrella, opening it and holding it above himself. He then crouched down closer to the ground, pulled his dufflebag next to himself, and waited for Ryo to return.

Training? What does he mean by that?

Rad continued to munch on his bar of pocky, oblivious to the distortions in the air, seeing as he had his back to the coast, and therefore most of the distortions.

The lightning started striking closer to Star as he tried to move toward the distortions. Lightning seemed to be striking a little to close for him to unsheath his weapons.

"This is getting crazy, I can't even draw my weapons or I will be struck."

Star prepares to jump when he thinks he has got close enough. He dodges a lightning bolt that seemed to be aimed at him. Star quickly recovered and jumped for the disruptions. Since Star wasn't grounded the lightning didn't strike him and started to go around him, but the heat started to burn him.

What many people were looking at as a sudden thunder storm was quickly turning into something more.

Ryo looked up, still crusing at a steady rate down one of Osaka's backstreets on the charged slab of metal. What appeared to be a spire of blue metal slowly crawled out of one of the largest distortions in the air - now a steady occurance.

"Right on time." Ryo hunched down, speeding up as he continued towards Bel's ground zero.

OOC I was hoping someone else would post...

Star was near the distortion and the lightning had stopped striking around him. He saw the spire and landed on it.

"What is this? How does this work? I don't think I can stop this by myself."

Star climbing toward the distortion trying to think of a way to stop it. He had an idea and started charging electricity withing his body. He figured that if lightning started some of this stuff then maybe it can end it.

Ryo stood at the center of a town square, staring upwards as Bel continued to plummet. What caught his eye more was Star getting in range of the odd-looking stone that stuck out of the sky like a sore thumb. "...uh oh."

A large section of the sky around it suddenly tore as what was behind the spike slowly forced its way through - a massive stone obelisk, covered with blinking lights of every color, still continued to advance into plain sight. Star was effectively at the tip of a massive, ancient battlecruiser.

As such, small rods quickly swung out from different areas on the visible portion of the object, seeming to charge up energy of their own as they all pivoted to face Star.

Suddenly remembering Bel again, Ryo cast out a bright blue disc of energy that would hopefully soften her fall - making sure it was stable, he quickly fed more energy into his plank of metal, causing it to shoot up into the sky.

"Hey no fair."

Star let ot an electrical discharge from the lightning he had been gathering then jumped off the ship and dived towards the ground. He lifted his shield above his head as it faced the ship knowing that any attack that hit it, unless it was really powerful, would be reflected back or bounce of it.

"What is going on Ryo!"

Star yelled this down to Ryo as he was fallling closer to the ground.

Rad, having finished his pocky, stood up and turned around. His jaw dropped as he gazed in awe at the giant battlecruiser decending from the sky. He quickly opened his dufflebag, pulled out two sheathed swords, and started at a sprint towards Ryo, hoping to asking him for more information.

Ryo shot over the starboard of the ship, causing all the turrets to fling themselves in his direction. He glanced around the surface of the cruiser, now fully revealed.

No sooner, a large hologram erupted over top of the obelisk, showing a tall man sheathed in flowing red robes. Grey hair flitted about his head, and his moustache flowed out to both sides.

"Well, hello to you to."

"I, Saijin of the Zendel, claim this world for my own. Surrender... now..."

Ryo's arms sulked. "Third interdimensional invasion this week. I think it's you who should be turning around... before you're the one that gets crushed."

"...you and what army? Hm, pathetic lifeform? Care to speak up? Your reception is... floundering."

Ryo stayed in the air a moment before shaking his his head. He held up his arm, opening his hand. Seconds later a shriek could be held over the horizon as something shot through the sky - with a crack Ryo caught it as it slipped through his fingers at hypersonic velocity. A model 325V63 Rickenbacker. He glanced back to Star. "...no offense... but could you be cannon fodder for a moment? I need to get in closer..."
