OOC: yeah, I doubt I'll cause any serious harm. I'm just trying to have some fun and hopefully make things more fun for you. BIC: Jahhar got free of Revol's grasp and quickly ran up a tree. He waited there as the army left and so did Revol. Not before Revol caved in the tunnel that Kama and Timaro were digging. Jahhar jumped down to the area where the tunnel was and started digging but soon stopped. He had a better plan. He got up and started going towads "The Lost" base. Kama and Timaro could take care of themselves. Jahhar's main goal was still Xavier. Plus, if Jahhar scanned with heat vision, he could still see his two siblings. They were fine. In the tunnel, Kama and Timaro had escaped near death. As soon as Kama saw the tunnel collapsing, he quickly put his katana away, grabbed Timaro, and quickly ducked into the small tunnel he had dug out of the metal guarding the base. The cave collapsed around them, but not the metal. Kama spoke. "I have enough oom to keep digging with my katana, but you must use your skills to prevent the heat from the fire from getting near us or we will quickly burn up." Timaro nodded. Kama started digging again. The progress was slow but steady
Revol slammed a fist into the glass table, shattering it and making everyone in the room flinch. "Why the hell did they get the better of us?! We should have been more organized, if they find the Labs... Or the other room...." "The Lost", including Xavier, looked depressed, and most stared at their feet. Revol was about to start yelling again when Vera appeared beside him. "Commander, I have detected increased heat signals in a part of the base closest to the battle. I think they're somehow getting through the armor... Should I have a few units waiting for them?" Revol muttered something to himself, and then turned to her. "Yes... As many as you can spare... And Hunt and Gregory, go with them, they'll need your help... Lieutenant, you're with me, we have to secure the lower levels..." The group dispersed, and Vera cleaned up the broken table and quickly replaced it. Hunt and Gregory went to the Heat source, and Revol and Sanders in his walker went into a hidden elevator in the back of the room, so heavily lined with lead that nothing would be able to detect it was there...
<span style='color:gray'>She listened to everything as she remained hidden within the shadows. She shook her head and disappeared from their part of the section and out into the hall. She padded along the hallway, pondering to herself. She perked her ears and jerked her head as she peered in the room Vera and Xela were in. She examized them both for a few moments, before going about her way.</span> <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td> Thanks ^^ *doesn't know what to do now*</td></tr></table>
OOC: hmmm... BIC: Jahhar walked up to an entrance of the HQ. He knew it should be there. He started looking over it for weaknesses. He scanned the door thouroughly until he found where the metal was weakest, and even that weak spot wasn't very weak compared to the rest of the door. "Perfect..." whispered Jahhar to himself, "Xavier, I'm coming for you..." Jahhar, with his claws still extended, slashed at the door until he tore open a big enough hole for him to climb through. Jahhar wondered about security for a few moments. Then Jahhar decided he didn't care. He needed something to warm up on before he reached Xavier. Where was Xavier though? Jahhar had a long ways to search, but plenty of time. He had all night... Kama and Timaro had made much progress. They finally decided that they were directly under the HQ through some calculations. Kama pushed his katana up until he broke through the floor. Then he put his katana away. He climbed out of the hole and pulled Timaro out. He looked at Timaro. She knew what he had planned. Find the main computer and hack it. Jahhar would hopefully get rid of security and keep them safer than he did last time they got into a fight. Kama put a device up to the wall which showed him an x-ray of it. He found the wires and quickly computed where the wires came from and went. He calculated the main computer's location by the wire's arrangment. He motioned to Timaro to follow him. By now, his katana had cooled down completely and was room temperature. Hopefully no one was expecting them. Kama was always ready though. He had pulled out a small vial made of extremely fragile glass. It had contained in it, something Jahhar had put together in case Timaro and Kama needed to gas a room. It had sulfur monoxide, mixed with tear gas and carbon monixide. Plus particulates of deadly poisonous plants. The funny thing about Jahhar's gases that he made was that the reaction could never be predicted. Jahhar combined only gases that wouldn't explode though. Kama was just glad that the suits he and Timaro had on were equipped with gas masks, which they currently had on. Kama felt sorry for the dragons who inhaled this gas. Jahhar's last batch of gas he made vaporized, instantly, the respiratory track of whoever breathed it. Wherever did Jahhar learn how to make such deadly gases? It was almost like forcing your enemy to play Russian roulette with chemicals...
"Xavier, I changed my mind... Get down here with me and Sanders, Hunt and Gregory can handle it... Vera, I have another request... Shut yourself, and the entire base down... Keep only the Security robots active, and don't connect them at all to yourself... Do it now... Xavier get down here! You have night vision goggles I remember, use them..." The message came only a few seconds before Kama broke through the metal. Xavier had just bolted down the opposite direction, and Hunt and Gregory, followed by a plethora of security units, walked around the corner to find the two. "OPEN FIRE!" Hunt shouted, and the security sent a hail of energy blasts and bullets towards the pair. Hunt and Gregory jumped to the sides of the corridor, narrowly avoiding their own units fire, and then helped the security units try and take out the intruders. If the two didn't act fast enough, Hunt and Gregory's aim would take them out, if the withering storm of fire didn't kill them first. Gregory and Hunt suddenly stopped firing, and Hunt flipped his visor down, sealing his suit off completely. Gregory flicked down his headset, and tapped the few keys on his forearm that activated his cloak. The Lights went out then, and the only things visible in the corridor was the dim red glow of the optic sensors on the security units. Vera had successfully shut herself down, not only preventing access to her systems to any would be hackers, but disabling the lights, elevators, and automated doors strewn throughout the base. The security units kept their constant vigil in all hallways however, and Vera was considerate enough to warn the other two innocent guests and give them night vision goggles before shutting herself off. Hunt and Gregory, having both Thermal and Night vision on their headset and suit, continued their firing, lighting up the corridor with the extra amount of fire. The night vision was hardly needed, as the attack of "The Lost"'s security and two team members was enough to brightly light the hallway... The servos in Revols suit complained with quiet squealing noises as he pryed the elevator doors open and looked down into the black shaft that stretched down far below. Sanders walker stood nearby, barely fitting into the small passages of the base. Revol whirled around at the sound of moving feet, and Xavier joined them, skidding to a stop beside the walker. <span style='color:red'>Revol, I heard gunfire as I was on my way here... I hope you have a plan, cause whatever came in that way had enough power to get through about 8 metres of adamantium...</span> Revol didn't reply, but swung himself around, and lowered himself into the shaft. "Sanders, after I give you the heads up on the coms link, follow me and Xavier down to level X... I assume your walker's grapple is functional?" "Yes Sir... It is..." Replied Sanders after Revols orders, and several minutes later, Revol, Xavier, and Sanders were standing in front of a thick titanium door. Revol tapped a small keypad on the right side, but there was no response. "Vera's successfully shut everything down... The only way they'll ever find out about this level is if they decide to explore all the way down about 50 stories... Sanders, blow it..." Sanders walker placed a heavy explosive on the outside of the door with mechanical hands, and then retreated to a safe distance as tiny numbers clicked down from 20. Xavier took cover behind the walker, but it was hardly needed, as the explosive detonated without a sound or rumble, leaving a large, perfectly round hole in the door and part of the floor. Sanders used the strength of the walker to heave the doors apart, and Revol led the three into one of the largest labratories in recorded history of any planet with sentient life. there were several robots slumped over themselves around lab equipment all over the room, and several large cryotanks scattered around as well. Xavier peered around, but couldn't see inside, through his night vision and the layer of frost on the outside of each. "Sanders, start up the generator, let's get some light in here..." Revol instructed, and Sanders hopped out of his walker, and over to a large switch on the wall adorned with high voltage signs. He flipped the switch and jogged back to his walker before a faint humming was heard. Suddenly the huge neon lights above sparked into life, and Xavier took off his goggles and threw them to the ground. Inside the massive cryotanks were giant creatures, various mixtures of draconic and canine pendragons, what looked like human features, and machinery. "Don't be alarmed Xavier... I've just decided to copy a certain project the military was researching... An experiment in which they took Earthling and Ramathian technology, and fused infant vampires with it, feeding them a new type of element recently discovered, to mutate them and increase their growth cycle, both mentally and physically... These creatures you see before you are the result of many long years of research, that began even before Earth fell victim to those... monsters... They are both Pendragon and Human, Organic and Machine... They possess Psychic abilities far superior to any living creature... And yet far stronger, faster, smarter, and deadlier than your cyborg friend I met earlier. And they're not even a year old..." He walked up to one of the cryotanks, and placed a hand on the glass. The creature stirred, but didn't wake, and Xavier was sure that he was aware of them. <span style='color:red'>You're a monster Revol... The graders would never allow these... Things... To exist... Even to save the planet!</span> "Even when the military was operating the program, the graders never heard a word of it... And I do plan to use these creatures to save this world when the rapine come, because I will do ANYTHING to destroy the rapine! They robbed me of my life, my home, my loved ones, and they almost robbed me of my soul! You can't stop me Xavier Galdon, and nobody short of the Graders can! I have thousands of these bases across this planet... And I have close to a hundred of these... My children... ready for duty. And because of my criminal activities, I shall soon have enough funds to expand even further, and collect enough of the precious element, Hyphic, to mutate even more..." Xavier backed up against the wall, and screamed so loud that it echoed all the way up the elevator, to the rest of the base. Sanders walker went over to him then, and grasped him firmly by the shoulders with mechanical arms. Revol led them even further, to another heavy titanium door, that Revol melted after a few minuted of concentrated blue flame from his flamethrowers on his wrists. He led them into a huge concrete chamber, several football fields long and wide, and Xavier let out another scream, louder than the first. The entire chamber was filled with the giant cryotanks of thousands of these giant creatures... In a chamber so deep beneath the earth it would almost never be discovered by anyone else ever, being so close to the planets molten core. Xavier felt the dark energy take him then, and he let out a howl just as loud, yet longer than his screams. Sanders walker was flung back into the lab, and Revol seemed to vanish. The Beast turned to look one last time at the thousands of tanks, each holding a giant, mutated, mechanical and organic creature. It turned to leave, and found Sanders walker nowhere to be found. It roared, and slammed a fist into the concrete nearby, causing a rumble, and a spiderweb of cracks to grow and spread throughout the giant room's ceiling and walls. The Beast went back the way it came, and clawed it's way back up the elevator shaft, as tons of earth and rock fell upon the mutated, vampiric, mechanical children abducted by Revol to "save" the planet from a race of creatures he despised so much he would risk making several other races extinct in order to kill them all... The Beast didn't care about Revol and his fruitless attempt at killing an evil race... It didn't even care about feeding either... It just wanted to kill... To somehow avenge the lives of the children Revol had kidnapped for his horrible experiment. The Beast didn't transform because of Light energy this time... It transformed because Xavier wanted to... It reached the top of the elevator shaft, and began prowling the corridors of the base, howling occasionally and letting it's giant claws beside Xavier's replacement ones scrape against the steel walls... Hunt and Gregory knew they had to get out as soon as they heard the first howl. They abandoned the fight, leaving the security units to stay and cover their escape... "The Lost" met outside somehow, and quickly boarded the jet black Hovercopter waiting there, leaving the beast to roam the corridors of the base to find it's sacrifices... The lower levels were completely gone, the bottom 8 levels completely demolished by the falling rock and debris... <span style='width:100%;font-weight:bold; font-size:10px'>Out of Character</span> <table class=ooc><tr><td>I'm going to L.A. so I won't be able to post for a long time, but I hope you enjoy my Uber long, badly written, post, and find out "The Lost"'s real intentions... Oh, and by the way, the base will self destruct in 10 minutes after the bottom levels are destroyed, so you'll all have to get you chars out of there quickly....</td></tr></table>
Kama saw the gunfire and jumped in the way of Timaro to protect her. Timaro gasped as Kama took the gunfire and fell to the floor. Timaro quickly placed a device on Kama to warp him to the nearest medical hideout. Kama warped away but not before Timaro grabbed his katana. "You're sacrifice wasn't in vain!" roared Timaro. Then the dragons quickly left quiet hastily when a roar could be heard. Timaro decided to go hack and then leave. She quickly raced to the main computer room. The power was shut down. Impossible to hack. She looked at it. Then she had a better plan. She went and found the main server with all the information. She put an atom compresser up to it and compressed it into a tiny cube. Then she put a patch over it and it warped back to a nearby hideout. "I can power it up in our hideout and extract the information that way." mumbled Timaro to herself. Her job was done. She looked around. Anything else? She heard that roar again. An odd creature came into the room she was in. [What in the world is that??] thought Timaro. She didn't care she quickly put a warp patch on her chest to warp her back to the hideout. It started buzzing. "Come on, come on." said Timaro. The creature was getting close. It swiped at Timaro, but Timaro was warped away before she could sustain any damage. Jahhar meanwhile was prowling around the base like a lion waiting to devour. Where was everyone. He heard gunfire then it sounded like it stopped. Jahhar also heard roaring. Jahhar wasn't the least bit scared though. He started running. "Xavier, come out and fight you wuss!" shouted Jahhar. He kept walking. He walked to where he heard the roaring. It was coming from the computer room. Jahhar entered to see Timaro warp away. Jahhar also saw a terrifying beast. Jahhar's eye's widened. He scanned it over. It had enormous power. Amazing! Jahhar backed away from it as it turned to look at him. Jahhar started running. The beast pursued him. Jahhar's confidence was drowneded by the beast. Jahhar could sense its anger and power. It wasn't to be messed with at all. Not alone at least. Jahhar started running. The beast was gaining on him. Jahhar turned off all his other augmentations and focused all his energy on his leg augmentations. He sped up. The beast was still gaining. Jahhar spotted an elevator. Jahhar jumped in and pushed a button. The door slammed shut just before the beast could get to the elevator. Jahhar realized he was going to the bottom floor. Jahhar was about to use the warp patch he had been given from Timaro, just as the doors opened to the elevator. He stopped what he was doing as he noticed the lights on and test tubes with creatures. Jahhar looked at them. He walked up to a tank. What were they? Jahhar grabbed a nearby needle. Whatever they were, he would get a blood sample of one. Jahhar also turned on a camera he had implanted in his left eye. He could bring footage back to Timaro and Kama. Then he would use the warp patch he had been given to go back to the hideout. Looking at the creatures gave Jahhar the chills. Jahhar made a small hole in the tube and inserted the needle. He extracted blood from the creature. Jahhar was about to put the patch on when the elevator opened. The creature had followed Jahhar. Jahhar put the patch on. It was preprogrammed as to where to warp Jahhar. It took a while for it to activiate though. Jahhar started running. The creature pursued Jahhar. Jahhar, who forgot to turn off his record kept running. He ran into a huge room with millions of test tubes. That was the last thing he saw before a blue flash enveloped him. Back at the hideout, Timaro was tending to Kama's wounds with other medbots. The drive she had stolen could wait. Suddenly, Jahhar warped right by her. He looked terrified and nearly out of breath. "Jahhar, what happened." Jahhar looked at Timaro, "When Kama gets cleaned up, i'll show both of you." A few hours later, Kama was bandaged up and walking carefully. "Those meddroids do a nice job, don't you think?" said Kama. Timaro smiled. "Let's see what Jahhar found." All three seated down as Jahhar placed down the needle filled with blood and showed what he had recorded. Timaro and Kama frowned. Jahhar spoke after the video finished playing. "What are they?" "I don't know. Let's do a test on the blood you extracted." replied Timaro a bit worried. Even she couldn't decide what they were. Timaro placed a drop of the blood on a slide and slid it into a small compartment. She booted started a computer and started scanning the blood. Timaro read the results and spoke them outloud. "Its from a hybrid mutant. The creature's design is much like Jahhar, because they are part vampire, part android, and part organic. The only difference is that they are much stronger. They are being grown on some kind of chemical." Kama frowned. "Why?" Timaro shook her head. Then her face brightened. "I still have the main harddrive of the computer. I bet we can find out about it from it." Timaro ran and got the little box. She hooked it up to the computer and hacked it. She started scanning it after she hacked it. The mutants weren't mentioned. Timaro frowned. "This must have been top secret information. Not even the database sources have it." Kama looked it over. "Super hack the drive again." Timaro looked at him with an odd expression but didn't argue. She hacked again. "Still nothing else." "Hack again." Timaro did again. "Still nothing. Kama, its already hacked, it doesn't need to be hacked again." "Hack it again." Timaro shrugged and did so again. Suddenly, the screen of the computer turned black and when it came back, there were new files that hadn't been there before. Timaro had a surprised look. She wouldn't bother asking Kama how he figured this one out. She read the files. It gave a full detailed acount about the creatures and their purpose. "I see, Revol is making these creatures to destroy rapine. The only problem is, they will eventually destroy more than rapine. They will wipe of everything they can find." Kama seemed unmoved by the dreadful news, his expression was the same. "Revol is a fool and if we work quickly we can possibly destroy most of thes creatures before they are released from their test tubes." said Kama grimly, "We have a lot of work to do between now and the next few weeks." "What are you going to do?" Kama smiled. "We have the DNA of this creature. Over the next few weeks, all three of us are going to genetically engineer a virus to wipe out these creatures. All of the world is at stake." "Where do we start?" asked Timaro. "We start by finding the most rapidly spreading virus. Then, we engineer it to attack the DNA and only the DNA of these creatures. We also need to infuse with it a computer virus, to wipe out the part of the creatures that are mechanical." "I've never heard of combining a computer virus with an organic virus." said Timaro quickly. "Neither have I, but we need to try, and we need to work quickly before they are released." "What about me?" asked Jahhar, "I know nothing of genetic engineering." "I know Jahhar." replied Kama, "You're job is to assassinate, capture, or question the members of The Lost. Especially Revol, because if we destroy these creatures and not them, they'll come up with another species of creature." Jahhar nodded and looked at the needle with the blood in it. The blood seemed so dangerous. It contained the DNA of one of the most powerful creatures to ever live. Jahhar put the rest of the blood in a vial and gave it to Timaro. "Don't you need this for research?" "no, we have every piece of information about the DNA saved on our computer. We can also use the computer to make animations about how our viruses will attack the body with the DNA. We don't need that blood. Do what you will with it." Jahhar nodded and pocket it. He would burn it sometime later. Kama, despite the beating he had earlier taken was working as if it had never happened. Timaro already had put on a hazmat suit and gone into the lab to pick out the right virus to work on. Kama put on a hazmat suit too and followed. Before he entered though, he looked at Jahhar. "Take care and don't do anything stupid. Remember, capture them if you can, worst case kill them. if nothing else, question them. You can take them all if you take them out when they are alone. Darkness and silence are your friend. One last thing." Kama went to the weapon locker and showed Jahhar. "Take my katana and Timaro's bow. Take as much as you can hold without being hindered." Kama looked back at Jahhar after speaking. "When you get back, we'll have the virus. Now pack and go." Kama left Jahhar in the room and went to the virus lab. Jahhar watched him leave. Then Jahhar turned to the weapons. He equiped Kama's katana on his belt, with Timaro's bow and arrows on his back. Tucked beside his legs were his twin eclipse blades. Jahhar also took plenty of grenades and smoke bombs. Jahhar grabbed his bag and found something on top of it. There was a blue vial with a note by it. It was written by Kama and Timaro. It said: Jahhar, get a meddroid to help you install this. It should double all of your augs power by two and give you some extra firepower for your mission. Take care. Jahhar picked it up. He would install it before he left. It looked like Timaro and Kama had been saving it for Jahhar for an occasion like this. Jahhar left the hideout the next morning He had his augmentation enhancer installed as well. He looked back at the hideout. It vanished. Kama and Timaro were warping it to a new location in the jungle. They would probably jump from hideout to hideout several times in case The Lost discovered their plan and started searching for their hideouts. Jahhar sighed. Now, where to start? He went to the smoldering HQ of "The Lost" thad had self destructed. By looking over it. Jahhar discovered that the dragons had left by a hoverjet. Jahhar shook his head. It didn't matter. He would still find them. Kama and Timaro worked in the lab and Jahhar searched. The odds were against the three of them, but they needed to succeed. All of Ramath depended on their work. Jahhar smiled. he started walking towards the area he would start his search. Then he broke into a run. He had a ways to go to find the members. When he did though, he would take their life away. OOC:I think I'm finished with this story and I think the story is wrapped up unless Niasha has one last post. What a blast I had, and more is yet to come...

This is seriously my last post, as I'm leaving sometime tommorrow, so I'll post one last time and leave it to you guys to ponder some of the things left to acomplish. Revol might go mad at the mention of the rapine, but trust me, the other team members are less reckless, although they share Revol's hatred. And only the core team of "The Lost" know anything about this, and now Xavier... so don't bother kidnapping any of my members... Well, you can, but they won't know anything... Anyways, to posting!</td></tr></table> "Sir, the military presence is gone... They left a few hours ago... Luckily for us..." "Well, nobody will ever find out about the other thousand bases at least... It was a mistake letting Galdon find out, but he'll take the secret to his grave... Even he's not stupid enough to go blabbing about it... Because even if he's tortured or threatened with death... He knows we can do far worse..." There were muttered agreements, and the A.I. flying the Hocercopter warned the team that they were half an hour from landing. "Sanders, send out the word. I want every single one of our experiments functional within a year. And I want the immune system strengthened... Send every unit ready for duty to report to our base near the Academy... I've heard of someone who can help with our project..." "Sir, the immune system is already completely immune to every known disease, and the security protocols are far beyond what normal safety protocols enforce anyways... The only thing I can think of that could take one out would be a nuke..." "Well, I want it strengthened anyways... You never know, our mutagen could have some long term side effects... If you can, try to get X-7 to join us, he might try to kill us if he ever finds out about our project, but as long as he doesn't suspect anything, he'll give us details freely... Oh, and wipe the base memory banks, the redo program might be discovered... Do it quickly, I want those things completed before we land..." Sanders flipped out a keyboard inside his walker, currently strapped into the floor in the cargo bay, and started typing madly. "Someone already got by the redo program Sir... Should I send them one of my more nasty viruses?" "Yes Sanders... They'll see what a hacker from earth can do..." Sanders tapped a few keys, and presto, a virus capable of completely crashing and deleting a supercomputer was on it's way to Jahhar's base... Xavier moaned, and shifted the piece of steel that was on top of him. There were numerous fires dancing in the wreckage around him, and several security units, mostly destroyed, yet a few still barely functional, scattered around as well. He got up, clutching his right arm, and groaned as he noticed the moon hanging almost directly above him. Luckily, the transformation was quick... Nasul yawned, he had been pulling an all nighter in the academy library. The slowly worked his hand to save his work, currently on elements and compounds with the ability to change genetic code, and then he closed his laptop, and went to leave the library. The academy was dark, and he placed the few books he had checked out on the front desk, by the snoozing librarian. <span style='color:green'>Good Night...</span> He whispered, and walked out. As he was heading up the stairs, he got a horribly bad feeling, so bad that he sat down on the staircase and held his head, moaning. Something was wrong in the world... And although he couldn't tell what it was, he knew it was a crime against life itself...
OOC: looks life I'll have to get very very clever. I think that ends this though. Have a fun vacation. I'll have more plans brewing when you get back Prec. And don't forget, I'm a racehorse... (Prec knows what I mean, so don't ask) I won't bother making an IC post, but I'll say that Timaro and Kama's base is wrecked by the comp virus, so they move their project and decide to come back and repair that hideout later after they finish working. BTW, I will find the weakness somehow, mhuahahahha. Honestly though, just remember we're having fun. Take care guys, can't wait to see some more of this action...
