Chapter 1, Part 3: Infestation

[hitronwolf]

OOC: Solo was on the island way before I was

Solo:*Calls Van* have Team 1 get Hitronwolf out of here as well

Vega: now it's my turn, Shadow Blade*Dashes at Mesmero with a black sword*

[Van]

Van sighed, "I'll do that myself then. We'll talk about jointing later. But I can't be missing out on a golden opportunity now can I?" Van replied. "Until then keep them busy." Van hung up on Solo and turned to his partners. "It'd almost time to mobilize, Rokuto and Genilia come with me near exit #3. Lyn & Lunisa head for exit #1. Hold your positions until I signal you." With that Van walked off with his team and the other team did so as well.

Chris knew the one he had destroyed was a fake. He was not a fool. He had now gone to all locations on the map and destroyed every single Van duplicate created. Van could not continue his operation, not if he wanted the island to stay intact. Or at least control of the school. Then, while he was walking around the island, a trap caught his leg. Thomas walked around the corner. "So, who's side are YOU on?" he said quietly. Chris knew this was a fake. He smirked and said, "my own." He shot the trap with his own personal handgun, and put his knife in the illusion. It faded. Then he found about a dozen armed people coming after him. "Van..." He jumped behind them, shot three, kicked one in the head, unconscious. Then the others banded into a circle. He appeared in the middle for a split second, and dropped a bomb that immediately disappeared. Soaked in by the earth. A few second later, and explosion, and Chris was gone.

[Luso]

OOC: Ok, ok, this is getting way outta hand.

No more bloody clones/ robots.

No more disapearing acts.

No more fake dorm rooms.

No more dummy data.

And no more creating more custom characters.

And if that weird girl can find Thomas' base, I can find yours. By the way, there were armed guards there as well as unhackable codes on the doors, but I'll let it slide, provided you let this slide. After this, no more clones, no more finding secret bases, no more disapearing acts, and no more custom characters can be made.

IC:

As Van and his friends made for the exit roots, bilious gas poured from the roots. As Van's friends dropped all around him, he looked at the perpatrator, who wore a gas mask. Luso.

As Luso put some last few commands in to Mesmero, he said to Van, "I heard a bit of what you were saying before this. Were you on team 2?" But Van didn't here anymore because he passed out from the gas.

When he came to, he saw nothing but emptyness. His cage was now suspended in air by a measly chain. As he looked around the vast space, he saw his friends cages, or what could have been his friends cages. They were too far for him to make out what was in them. It was also a long way down to the ground.

Luso meanwhile continued to put in commands to Mesmero. As Mesmero side stepped Vega's attack, a Pegasus sent a cyclone at Vega. A dark knight came in for a swing, and the ninja pawn threw some shuriken. The knight also came down for a jump. The fin rook fired its signature Shark Cannon, and the Wizard activated the chip Barrier around Mesmero.

Luso looked at the display with a guilty twinkle in his eyes.

[hitronwolf]

Vega: oh, please Luso your going to have to do better than that

Solo: Target locked. Do it Vega

Vega: Rolling Cannon*Breaks Mesmero's barrier* NOW SOLO

Solo: Cyber Sword, Wide Sword, Long Sword, LIFE SWORD

Vega:*Strikes Mesmero with Life Sword*IN YOUR FACE!!!

[Luso]

The Life Sword hits the barrier as All of Luso's pieces hit Vega.

Mesmero: In YOUR face.

[hitronwolf]

OOC: Check again Luso

[Luso]

OOC: That is against the rules. Called god moding. You can't change your attack after your opponent has responded.

[Kyn Azleos Roya]

Zyrois appeared behind Vega, Running his own beta sword through him. Slowly, the navi faded, and Solo's P.E.T became fried. Thomas walked up behind him, and shot Solo in the back of the head. He fell down, coldly, he truly died. Mesmero rose again, smirking.

"Now then. This scene I like," Thomas walked up to Luso, smiling, "Good job, He had set everything up. He has no use now," Thomas had to be loving this, he couldn't stop smiling, as he only annoyance hung there, "His life in my own hands. Just how this should be," He shifted his look to Van, "You have been nothing but a pest, a useful one, but a pest nonetheless. I suppose I should do some form of monologue, but," he shot the chain holding Lyn, and the cage fell, "I felt it holding back."

He knew Van should be watching in horror, and he was glad. He shot down the other cages, leaving only Van. Thomas practically basked in his moment of glory. Van had to have been wishing to die, so Thomas turned to Luso, "Leave him here for a bit, You did remove everything from him right?"

[Luso]

"Yes. Everything in his compound was confiscated for investigation."
Luso looked over to Van's cell.

"But before we kill him, I think we should team up in a torturous net battle. Not for fun, but for me to vent my feelings."

[Kyn Azleos Roya]

Thomas walked over to Van's P.E.T, and picked it up. Zyrois appeared in Trance's space, 'You were a good opponent, Trance. I respect you. Maybe if our Operators were not like this, we could have been on the same side. I hold no hard feelings towards you personally, and I wish to have fought on the same side with you," He extended a hand to Trance, who took it. Zyrois knew that he felt the same way. Zyrois left shortly after.

Thomas returned to the place where Van's cage hung, still holding Van's P.E.T, and said, "Just as my navi feels, I do. I would have liked to fight on the same side as you, and I am sorry it came to this. Maybe if you had seen why I do this, you would have changed," He turned to Luso, and gave him the P.E.T, "do what you wish. I am gong out for a bit. Give Van a bit to think before you do anything, alright, maybe he wishes to hear more," As Luso grabbed the P.E.T he saw that Thomas was holding something else, in the same hand.

Sophia, You would be so mad for what I did, and I am sorry for this, but I must do what I have to. Thomas continued walking, forgetting about the picture, he let go and it fell. If Luso chose to look, it had Ryan and Thomas standing side by side,with Thomas holding a young girl on his shoulders, not older than 6, she was messing up Thomas' hair. There was a part of Thomas' history with his youngest sister, Sophia, that Thomas still missed.

Thomas had now left the building, walking over to the beach. Unlike before, when he was outside, Thomas was not wearing his jacket, so he stood there, in a t-shirt and jeans, like he was in the picture.Once he had reached the beach, he walked far enough so that his shoes were immersed in the water, the feet felt cold. It was night, so there was little beach, lots of water. Thomas sighed as he looked out towards the sky.

There was a cold air around him, and he turned around, expecting to see someone. He sighed, "I must be getting paranoid," He began walking back to his base, he had decided to walk the long way around instead. He needed time to think.

[hitronwolf]

Hitronwolf:SOLO!!*PET Drive Beeps*Huh?*Vega apperes with Cyberman*

Cyberman: it's time to end this battle.

Vega: for good.

*The two navi's fuse together*

Cyberman: Vega Cross Ready!

[Van]

"Bastard." Van whispered. "You killed my ninja. You TRIED to kill everyone important to me. For that there will be minimal mercy." Just then he began swinging his cage back and forth. "What are you up to?" Luso asked from below. Van shot out his Xenon blade and sliced a hole in his cage. Luso shot several times at Van but all the bullets hit his bullet proof vest. Van jump from his cage onto Luso, knocking his gun away. He then press a pressure point on Luso's neck to knock him out and drew two swords. "Better make sure this thing is real." Van smiled as he pulled on Luso's face to make sure it wasn't a disguise. He then proceeded to slash off one of his legs. As tge blood gushed out Van snickered, "Yep real." Van then took out his phone and called his friends in an underground shelter and said, "Everyone goes home. NOW! That's an order." They did as told, taking a jet to their homeland immediatly. He then took back hhs PET, making sure everything, including Trance, was still there. He turned it on and said, "Nice acting." "Yea, thanks." Trance replied.

"Now then where did Thomas go?" Van said as he walked outside. Soon enough he notice Thomas walking along a pathway leading to the base. He took out a stun gun, and ran up behind Thomas to hit him with it. He didn't have enough time to respond and simply fell to the ground. Van Then droped a letter on his unconcious body. It read as follows:

"Theres a reason I stunned you instead of killing you. You nay be able to guess the ones you killed we disguused ninja. Even though you tried to kill me friends, I suppose I like your style. Trance and I don't mind helping you out from now on. But the second you attack us we'll take you out. If you need me I'll be on the beach of the eastern(My) Island."

With that Van called for his remote called waterboard and rode off on the waters.

"I could've told you this wasn't going to work." Trance said as they arrived on the island "As could I" Van replied. "Eh? Then- nevermind. So where do we go from here? Surely you have it planned out?" Trance asked him. Van was floating in the water without his robe. He raised his PET and said, "Dunno. Whereever these waves rake us I guess." Van was just floating there with is eyes closed, dreaming.

[hitronwolf]

Hitronwolf: Cyberman, It's good to see you again.

Cyberman: likewise, your brother sacificed himself to save you, look the doors are unlocked go save the others.

Hitronwolf:Right but first lets give someone a taste of true teamwork. Jack out.

[Kyn Azleos Roya]

Thomas got up, groaning. He had built up, for the most part, and immunity to electric shocks. He bagan walking back to the base, then stopped. He pulled out his P.E.T and pulled up the security cams. One showed the medics picking up Luso, the other showed Thomas' roulette paying off. He pressed a button, which unlocked another cell, then sent an email to Van. It read, "Good to see you wish to take us up on our offer. Hitronwolf seems to be intent on killing me, so I have to go, but you might want to return to my base, I have something in a cell for you. Do not think it so evil of me for holding your girlfriend as a trump card, as I am sure you would have done the same, had our places be switched. Luckily I lost everyone 4 years ago, so you hold nothing on me." The screen displayed the message sent logo he had designed, then he turned around, running from the base, trying to avoid Hitronwolf catching him. Last thing he needed was a vendetta fight.
