When Sieran insisted on staying with the ship, he frowned and shook his head. "Sieran, it can't be stable. The crash would have drawn attention. We don't know this planet.", he told her quietly before laying a hand on her shoulder as she banged a wrench against the hull.

He knew that his younger siblings thought of him as slow, or unintelligent. It wasn't true, though he could see why they thought that way, and he didn't begrudge them of it. He preferred to think of himself as steady, and sensible. The shuttle didn't seem to be very stable in the flight itself, and the crash could only have made it worse. What was more, they had no idea what the natives of this planet were like.

That's assuming there were any natives in the first place.

The fact that it was clearly habitable, from the atmosphere and the flora, told him that chances were good. That was simple logic. And if there were natives, it was better to be on the defensive in case they were hostile. That was better than being on the offensive in case they were possibly friendly.

But after a moment, he sighed softly and shook his head again. It was clear she wouldn't budge on this, and arguing wasted time and energy, and they needed to stick together. "Alright, if you're sure. I won't go far.", he told her.

Juda turned, then slipped his right arm into the harness of his Crab Claw. It was best to keep it ready as a makeshift weapon, in case he either ran into a hostile native, or prospective food. He strode slowly and carefully into the nearby brush, his eyes scanning the area as he looked for some kind of prey, or even signs of civilization.

As he made his way slowly but steadily further, he supposed if nothing else, they should try the plant life and see if it was edible, but the likelihood of the flora being poisonous was higher than the fauna.

Fromanzio peered down and saw a silvery human looking figure was talking to him. Oh, this would be fun. He quickly gathered himself and rushed down, the chaos streaming behind until he was right up at Vask's face. Fromanzio was curious at first, scanning the strange looking human in order to find out...well what it was. Fromanzio thought with the long blonde hair that it was probably a girl...but there were no eh...defining features to prove that. He figured it was best to simply ask.

"Any who, who would you be?"

Fromanzio grabbed her hand with both of his and shook it vigorously while saying in a very whimsical and fun sounding tone "Fromanzio's the name! Exploring your world is his game! Who are you? Where is Fromanzio? Are you a girl?" Tons of questions were racing through the jester's head, his pentagram pupils spinning and his clearly demonic suit gleaming in the light.

[I haven't gone anywhere, I was waiting on ya...]

The Gate got the reptile's attention, and so did the subsequent crash by the Jester. The silvery girl seemed to turn her attention to the chaos as if it were normal... But Rykar already had his weapon loaded, shouldered, and in a wide pose to assess the threat. What was this? What was falling? And more importantly, was it going to hurt the silvery girl?

It lept to her, giving a handshake and asking a barrage of questions. It was enough to make his head spin with all of the commotion. What had he witnessed? A newcomer to the planet? He lowered the rifle and blinked, staring at the two. If this is going to happen every time someone asked him a question, he's better board the ship and go home.

A flash of light and shouting woke Kara from her seconds-long rest. She stood up and walked slowly towards the explosion of color, only to see some jester talking with a silver human. Curious, she climbed onto a rooftop and observed the spectacle below her. She saw the jester firing question after question at the silver woman, and saw the lizard she caught a glimpse of earlier holding a gun. Intrigued, she sat down and continued to watch from out of sight.

"Well you''re different and I find different interesting. You're... Calming to me, of all things you could provoke." Luna said tilting her head and looking him over a bit. She walked a few paces back and forth to get an overall look of the A.I. and his body. Her cheeks blushed a perfect rose pink once she had realized what she was doing.

"I'm sorry... it's just You... Seem familiar in a strange sense. I guess it's cause I helped the professor who adopted me until he died. He had me working with robots and I was fond of them, but one day he just set me to house work and I can't remember why." Luna said, her shoulders drooping and her entire demeanor.becomming somewhat saddened. "Oh well, better not to dwell on the past. I was hoping to walk with you to town, would you allow me the pleasure?" She asked him, recovering from his previous thoughts.

 

[RandomMan01]

Kesin had been getting close to the town when some sort of gate opened above the the city. Seeing as how this could be his ticket out of this place, he began running towards it. By the time he'd gotten close to it, however, it had already dissipated.

Well crap!

Not too far away, a jester was speaking with some sort of silvery human-esque thing, a maid was talking to a robot, an armed lizard was standing nearby, and a woman was eavesdropping from the roof of a nearby building.

"Well I've seen stranger... Kesin thought, actually...no, no I have not. Wonder what their saying.

This was followed by a bought of internal bickering as Kesin decided whether or not it would be rude to do so. This ended when he concluded that politeness wasn't really his thing anyways.

Now, how to get close...oh wait! I know!

Kesin ran forward at full speed, aiming at one of the nearby buildings. As he got near, he threw himself up with all the force his new legs could give him, which was just enough to get him within arm's reach of the ledge. Grabbing on, Kesin proceeded to pull himself onto the rooftop. He then crawled to the opposite ledge where he could hear the conversation below.

 

[drmigit2]

"Are you a lucky man?"

Fromanzio landed on the ground and sat to think. Luck rarely factored into his life. Traveling perpetually between worlds and exploring the endless outer dimensional happenings was fun enough. Then again, he was found with a giant hole in his chest by a devil and revived as a demon before being sent to the one place with enough interesting things to keep him entertained forever. Plus he got a fun new master who was busy taking over his version of Hell. Then again, he still had that hole in his chest. Plus, the bowler hats he told the candymaker to create were lackluster. So it was a wash.

"Not particularly a girl? That's pretty cryptic. As for Fromanzio's luck...ask the nightingale beaver in the forest sometime. He usually has answers to those kinds of questions." Fromanzio noticed the girl's eyes were changing colors too, she might have some power behind her. Oh this could be a lot of fun. He had to be somewhat careful, if he pissed her off, she might use it on him and then who would he sell oranges to when the oranges came? Wait...there wouldn't be any oranges until next month. To hell with it then!

"Fromanzio has a question! Are you strong? Do you have magic powers? Oh if you do this could be even greater!" Fromanzio was hovering again, and began looking in the sky before turning around again very suddenly. "Well? Well?"

 

[lionrwal]

Kara noticed someone approaching from the beach and witnessed him climb up to one of the rooftops and listen to the same conversation she was. She pulled out her knife and kept it in her hand, just in case anything happened. She then stood up and walked to another building, out of sight of the new person, but still able to see what was happening below.

As The One proceeded towards the area Raynor had marked, thoughts of what to be done about this particular set of problems came to mind. With such a wide area, the new inhabitants could quickly blend with the rest of the populace. However, that could be a better solution than any other solution that could be thought of. Newcomers blending in and then staying would be best, and keep the overall peace that required constant maintenance and careful guidance.

The newcomers would likely be a lot more trouble than they were worth though. Especially as some radio chatter seemed to be picked up, claiming all sorts of oddities and disturbances which now seemed to be going on. While some of it was more along migrations, such as different species coming to the front and arriving at the city, others....were being problematic. Magicians, and perhaps a demon had entered the realm. Some of which seemed to be different. Something would need to be done about them at some point or another.

Action would not be required until ultimate judgement had been done. Until that point, this was to make sure nothing was left to cause problems from the newcomers. Ships, portals, and other such things which would need to be sealed.

As Juda proceeded to try and explore, he would note that some individuals were wandering about the area, apparently looking for the crash that they had done. They were as varied as they were shifty, with a large green man, a smaller blue human, a large short individual, and then a more demon looking individual, with horns and red skin. The obvious differences did nothing to conceal the weapons that they carried, as well as how they did not manage to see Juda as he looked around.

However, in the city, for the pair on the rooftops, it began to become obvious that something was happening among the populace, some whispers seemed to be being share,d and individuals began moving on some way or another, some walking with more purpose, others returning to their homes, and some taking out their weapons, checking their packs, and then making their way out of the city. For the more attentive, it would appear that something was going on silently with the town, and that it involved nearly all who lived there.

 

[BeerTent]

Rykar had lost his patience with the odd human and the Demon Jester. "You do not need to worry about me." He said in an aggravated tone. "I'll find the checkpoint on my own." With that, he reached under his coat and started to walk away. He took a few moments, not really paying attention to where he was going as he checked the syringes he pulled out. Right around now, after that display, he didn't mind a little pick-me-up. Or at least something to make the interaction worth his time.

Right, he gave away all of the good stuff on the sea-ship. He only had military grade formulas.

With another growl he put the syringes away and slung the weapon over his shoulder after unloading it. As he looked up, he noticed something was going on. There were much less people on the dock, and those who were left were going away. He looked back to the human run boat and saw them untying the ship and getting ready to leave. Were they not supposed to stay for the day? He'd never seen something like this since... Since...

He didn't care too much for the other two, but what if the God was about to intervene? What if it was that nauseating Jester that caused it to arrive? What if Rykar could kill a god? That would be the ultimate proof for his studies. That would be massive enough to end the war that divided his people. He lowered his head, looked around, and attempted to follow the others looking to get away from the scene. Rykar's not getting anywhere... Oh, No, he'd want to remain in a position where he could watch everything, where could a better spot be to observe from than an elevated position? He'd quickly, yet casually make his way to a home down the road with a balcony. He'd climb up and watch.

[RandomMan01]

Kesin noticed the strange woman drawing a knife and walking away towards another rooftop, but lost sight of her shortly after. He figured he should be prepared to defend himself if she were to come around, but he had more pressing concerns. The town was almost deserted, and it was still daytime. Residents were either packing up and leaving, or just running into their homes. The only people remaining on the street were the group below him, and a few stragglers already on their way out. Kesin didn't understand what was going on, but it seemed awfully suspicious.

Then it hit Kesin.

Wait a minute. Those people probably aren't from around here. The probably came from the portal that was just here. If that's the case, then they don't know much about this planet...or its inhabitants, but the locals do, and they all just left. That means somethings coming, something they can't fight against. Something unique to this world

Kesin gulped, his skin going ghostly pale. "The One," he whispered, his throat getting dry, "He's coming,"

Resisting the urge to panic, Kesin tried to calmly climb off the roof. Once he was on the ground, he figured, he could make a break for the sea and stay ahead of the monster. Unfortunately, as he was standing up, Kesin's foot slipped, sending him tumbling two stories towards the ground, just inches away from the group he was listening to.

As soon as the scouting party came into view, Juda froze in place and didn't make a sound. There were four of them, varied races, and it looked like all of them were armed. While the weapons they held were alien to him, the way they were held made it clear what they were. And the fact that they were heading slowly but steadily in the direction of the wreckage, made it clear as to where they were headed.

He didn't so much as let out a breath as he watched them walk past, and when he was certain that they didn't see him, he carefully moved backwards, as quietly as he was able. He had no idea if they could hear him, but since they didn't seem to hear him approaching earlier, he supposed that it was a safe assumption that they couldn't. But he didn't take his chances as he backed away, crouching until he was reasonably certain that they were far enough away.

Then he turned and ran as quickly as his cybernetics would allow, so that he flew through the brush before bursting out in front of Sieran. He skidded on the patchy grass and stopped just short of her. "Sieran, there's a scouting party. Four, all armed. Headed here. We need to go.", he said quickly, just before glancing back the way he came.

 

[lionrwal]

Kara saw the reptile start walking away when she noticed that something felt different. Looking down, she saw nothing but empty streets below her. Only a few people remained walking around. "What the hell is happening?" she mumbled to herself. Then, all of a sudden, the man who came climbed up the rooftop stumbled off and fell to the ground. By now, no one but the group by the port and the two people behind Kara were outside.

Kara started becoming concerned. In addition to the empty town, all of the ships at the port had left. She jumped down from the rooftop, keeping a grip on her knife. As she looked around, her gaze fell on the man who tumbled off the roof. She started to walk towards him, constantly looking around her for anything that might be a threat. When she reached him, she held out her hand.

"I hope you can tell me what's going on."

 

[RandomMan01]

The woman that Kesin had seen on the rooftops earlier, came towards him, knife drawn. For a moment, he thought this was it. That she would kill him for whatever he had. Thankfully, when she reached Kesin, she reached out with her empty hand.

"I hope you can tell me what's going on."

Graciously accepting the hand, Kesin hoisted himself off.

"Thank you," he said, smiling, though that quickly faded, "We have to get out of here, the One is coming, and you don't want to be anywhere near him when he shows up,"

[RandomMan01]

?The One? Someone important??

Kesin turned towards the strange-looking woman. Looking at her closely, he could see she didn't seem...natural. Like she wasn't really there. However, she certainly seemed to be searching for something. Kesin assumed it was a weapon by the look in her eyes, but, that didn't really matter right now. If he kept talking to them, and The One showed up, he could almost guarantee that the beast would come for him, and he wasn't sure that he could escape it this time. He had to finish quickly.

"Yes, very important. He is an unbeatable monstrosity, that kills for practically no reason at all. He killed my parents, and they were very strong. I wouldn't even attempt to fight it, you're better off getting out of here, now,"
