Alice bowed her head slightly, "Thank you for the dinner, but I must retire." She smiled and left the cafeteria. A few minutes later she found her room and entered it. The room was spacious, but also cluttered, the bed and computer were off to one wall and a closet on the opposite. There was a small inlet door on the back wall and a television on the fourth. She waked in slowly and sat on the bed. She had hid from the rest of the group, but she had a splitting headache. The suit kept buzzing and pulsing, like it was excited or anxious.
She slowly massaged her temples and drifted off in rest. Black tendrils exited the wall behind her and slowly wrapped themselves around her body and into a jack on the back of her neck.
...Seeker Units Have Returned...
...Debriefing...
...Recharging...
...Suit Recharge Mode Active...
...All None Essential Systems In Sleep Mode...
...Host in Deep Sleep Mode...
The black tendrils glew a soft green as it began funneling energy and new nanobots into the suit and Alice, slowly phasing out those worn during the day.
Zero yawned as Alice left, put his plate away, and thanked Jack and co. for dinner. He went to the maintenance room for a bit to find tools for his buster, then found his room. Ignoring the low energy warnings on his CPU, he sat down on the bed to try and repair his arm some more, but dozed off here and there from exhaustion. After about the fourth snooze and no progress, he sighed as he got up, found an outlet near the bed to plug himself in, and laid back down.
That's all I'm gonna put down for now to show that I'm not dead, just waiting for the next plot point to come up.
After dinner Ryan made his way to the ship's helm Jack and farrago followed.
"so which stone are we searching for first? My fully refueled thanks to you, and with a whole new team of heroes with a new quest. Ah I feel it already don't you that little surge of electricity. But back to business where is our first objective?"
"(Hey!)" Youmu called out, from the back of the ship. Everyone turned around as she continued, too quickly for anyone to pick up. "(There's something I really had to tell you earlier! I don't know how I managed to forget it, but--)" She suddenly inhaled incredibly hard, which shouldn't have come as a surprise, seeing as she'd just run a very long way in a very short time.
"Calm down," Jack told her. "Start again from the start. What did you need to tell us?"
The panting continued for a few seconds, then Youmu looked up again and continued. "(I just remembered that I've already been to Australia, and I don't actually speak the language. I'll go with you guys first, but if you could then follow me there, that'd be great.)" Jack slowly repeated everything in English for Ryan and Farrago.
"That sounds fair," Ryan replied. "Was there anything else you had to say?"
"(Well...)" She trailed off, almost embarrassed to ask. "(Mr. Jack, you seem to know the most about these stones. What do we do with them after we find them? Do we have to carry them around, or do we just touch them and always have their power?)"
Everyone turned to Jack, waiting for the answer.
~~~
What I just had Youmu ask is actually a question I've had floating around for a while: once we find one of the Scared Stones, what then?
After playing video games for some time, Ken decided to train with other types of melee weapons. Going to an unused spare, he created a warhammer about as big as him. Getting an idea of how it was supposed to be used, he gave it a few practice swings. Ken found out that it could be swung effectively like a bat or an axe. Getting that down, he decided to try out the smashing part. He quickly found out that trying to smash something left him completely open to attack. Ken thought the basic principles of the hammer would apply to the battle axe. Creating one, he found it to be true to say the least. Ken knew he was going to have fun with these since the brute force of the hammer seemed to appeal to him for some reason. Looking at the clock, he realized that he was very tired and went back to his room to sleep.
Name: Ken
Height: 6' 5"
Age: 22
Alignment: Pure evil
Powers: Complete control over nuclear fission and fusion
Mood: Tries to stay as calm as possible
Bio: Ken grew up into a military family that didn't stay in one place for very long. Once Ken hit puberty, his powers started showing up. Fearing that he was a danger to a lot of people, his parents turned him over to the military. Over the next nine years, Ken has been staying at a secret compound learning to control his powers. Once the higher ups thought he was able to keep a tight lid on his powers, they let him out in the free world but under survellience. Since then though, Ken had been getting evil ideas stuck in his head. He finally decided to act on them a year later with the nuking of LA.
Ryan himself considered this
"Hmm that's a good question after all My Ring has great power but I have to wear it to use it. these stones could be similar or they could be a vessel of great power, however I suspect the stones have a trait similar to my ring, It requires a quota of sorts before you can use it.
The flames I generate from my ring is from my resolve, I have to focus my determination., Find what is important to me.
These rings probably won't give their power to anyone. In which case the airship has a really nice training room.
"How do you have o many rooms?" asked farrago
Ryan held up a copper and steel bound box, it had a hole in the center but it wasn't a bow weapon.
"Hyperspace cube, gives me a lot more space on the inside, I use a similar technology in this airship.
If we find a stone I'll lead them to the chamber so we can see how this power is obtained."
Justin sat in his hospital bed playing Fallout 3. Mrs Glados lay in the bed beside him, her head resting on Justin's shoulder.
"Gee, I love this game; I can't wait for a nuclear holocaust to hit Washington DC so we can have a fallout-esque adventure!"
"Well dear" Said Mrs. Glados, running a finger along the scar on Justin's back "the new guy does seem to have the ability to create nuclear blasts... So"
"OH!" Justin smiled turning to face his wife, "Can we can we can we??" pleading with big puppy dog eyes.
"But isn't Issac in Washing DC?"
"Yeah I'm pretty sure he is, but I can solve that" Justin took out his cell phone putting in a text
"IF you are able best to get out of DC or at least to a nuke safe bunker, let's just say its Live Action Fallout time!"
"There it is done!" Smiled Justin, "ASSMEBLE THE FALLOUT FAN BOYS!" Justin commanded standing up in bed, his hospital gown billowing out around him in a combination of epic and embarrassing.
"Dear?"
"Yes Glados"
"Put pants on first, I can see your parts" She giggled as she left the room, Justin blushing and scrambling to cover himself.
So I've decided why have a epic quest when we can just screw around doing a fallout like adventure, just for shits and giggles, sounds villiany!
As Ken was woken up in the middle of his sleep, he was getting ready to kill whoever it was that decided to wake him up. As he was about to strike, he heard the voice of Justin talking to him and quickly canceled out his hidden blade. "Hey Ken, wake up. I got a awesome plan for us," he said enthusiastically. "Alright, let's hear it before I fall asleep again," Ken said not really moving or opening his eyes. As Justin explained his plan, Ken slowly got up to look at him. When he was done explaining his plan, he waited for Ken to reply to him. "First, I love the idea. Second, what exactly are we going to be doing? There isn't going to be any mutants or anything, we'll be mostly fighting the military or the heroes when they show up to investigate the area," said Ken. He wanted to nuke D.C. either way, he just wanted to know if Justin actually thought this through. Ken was glade he had decided to sleep with his clothes on.
10:23 AM (about an hour after Orinon's last story post)
A bedroom in Ryan's Airship
Youmu stared down at the almost-blank piece of paper, sucking absently on a ballpoint pen. (Why did I never bother learning how to write?) she wondered. (I'm sure it wouldn't have been that hard to find the spare time...and I can't even read any complicated characters. I'm so--) The negative line of thought was cut off by a knock on the door. She cried out and fell off her chair, more out of surprise than anything. "(C-Come in!)" she called out, trying to sound like she hadn't just fallen off a chair out of surprise.
Farrago slid the door open and looked around. "Where are you?" she asked, confused. She looked at the now-vacant chair, shaking her head as Youmu slowly stood up in front of it. "What are you doing in here, alone?" she asked.
Remembering that Farrago didn't know Japanese, Youmu tried to slow down her response. "(I was writing a letter to someone I know...Not sure if it'll ever get there, but it keeps my mind off other things.)"
"(Who's it for?)" the angel asked, in perfectly-accented Japanese.
Youmu didn't reply for a few seconds. "(...You speak Japanese?)" she finally asked. "(I had no idea...)"
"(It's not like I wouldn't know more than one language, being an angel... But who was the letter to?)"
"(Oh, just...someone. It's just, I never actually learned how to read or write any kanji... Would you mind...)" Again, Youmu seemed to have trouble asking questions. (What's wrong with me? Why can't I ever ask anyone anything?)
Farrago smiled, understandingly. "(If we have enough time to spare, I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard.)" She was suddenly thrown off-balance by Youmu's ecstatic hug.
"(Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!)" she shouted quickly. "(When can we start?!)"
I'm sure it's not too much of a stretch for an angel to know more than one language. Also, I'd already had the idea for Youmu being illiterate, I just never put it in the character sheet. Not that that's necessarily bad, right?
"Kay kay kay kay!" Said Justin who was hyped up on sugar, "It goes like this!"
"SO there are two different groups of fan boys right? The Fallout 1/2 fan boy elitists, and the Fallout 3/New Vegas fan boys. Now, the fallout 1/2 fan boys are going to for the most part take their home made Brotherhood of Steel armour and what not and create their own base (not in the ruined pentagon like you would think they would) while the 3/4 fan boys take up the position of raiders! Now we, after we recover you from where you will cause the initial blast, will take up the roles of... Well protagonists, but like evil protagonists... So maybe like... I don't know yet we will figure it out! And as for super mutants!" Justin smiled as he pointed to the wall where a screen took the place of a panel. Ken sat up in his bed to see a jar of green fluid.
"What the hell is that" Ken groaned, still very groggy
"That is FEV virus!" Justin said excitedly "we have already went through the testing! And it now works on males ages 16-39 if they are physically healthy and women ages 14-42 if they are physically healthy. And the next batch of mutants we will use a mind altering apparatus to make them innately hate most living creatures, and feel the need to drag healthy humans to where they can 'dip' them and turn them into them mutants"
"Okay... And what will we do?"
"I haven't figured anything out, but we'll see, after all we are nuking a major city! OH! And if those pain in my behind heroes show up they take on the role of Regulators, but they will have a hard time putting down the looters, raiders, and mutants."
Justin smiled, "get your gear, and get ready to move out!"
SO I'm beginning to flesh out my fallout idea and I found this http://planetfallout.gamespy.com/articles/static/167/Fallout-3-Character-Creator-Tool
I think it will be useful, we should make our characters at lvl 10 or so, and although I won't actually use these stats, it will be cool to have a character sheet for fallout, I'm going to specialize in small guns, speech and lock pick, Mrs. Glados will specialize in Energy weapons, science (SCIENCE!) and repair, you chose your three tags skillz and post your lvl 10 fallout 3 character sheet (sadly the creator doesn't include perks) after you nuke DC, we still have a bit of preparing to do, but we are about to do some fallout, I can already hear it now! Also the stuff that includes ken ends at this spoiler I'm just writing Justin Glados stuff here after this spoiler so if its late and you don't want to read the whole post stop here!
Justin left Kens room and headed down the hallway, going through the maze of corridors, seeing console fallout fan boys cheering as they guzzle down Nuka Cola, and the classic fallout fan boys polishing their power armour and weapons.
Justin arrived to the door just outside the shared residence of Mrs. Glados and himself. He took a deep breath in, then turned the door handle. Stepping through he saw his darling wife holding up different vault suits and seeing which one would look best on her.
"They all fit the same, I can assure you."
"Well I don't know, maybe I look better as a resident of vault 101, or a resident of vault 87" She let out a exasperated sigh throwing them down looking at him. "Are you sure your better, this is really soon since your last exposition, and that one didn't end so-" She swallowed hard looking down at the vault suits in her hands, setting them down on the couch behind her.
"What happened wasn't how I expected it, I really didn't assume they'd be so starved for action they'd jump into a fight" walking closer to his wife he took her hands (which were fidgeting) in his. "But I came home, just like I promised. And I'll always come back to you, that is my promise to you."
It was sudden, Glados threw her arms around Justin, and Justin held her as closely to him as possible. They slowly began to shuffle back and forth to a tune that was coming from a radio down the hallway.
Glados looked up at Justin, and Justin looked down. It's time for me to go for broke, man up! Justin leaned down, pressing his lips against Glados's.
This was their first intimate kiss, there was almost a charge between them, but soon how it felt didn't matter the initial shock of the touch began to die down, but the intimacy didn't. Falling back onto the couch the couple spent their first night in each other's arms in love.
While Ken liked Justin's idea, right now he was glad that the villain was gone so he could get some more sleep. A few hours later, he woke up and did his daily routine of getting ready for the day. Once he was done, he went to the cafeteria to get a huge plate full of food. He knew that this amount of food would be unhealthy for a normal person, but his powers drained him pretty fast. Ken then realized that he would have to bring a lot of snacks to their adventure just so he wouldn't pass out in the middle of a fight. He was going to have to train his powers a lot more he didn't want them to drain him as fast. After eating enough to feed a small army, Ken began training to pass the time away.
Mrs. Glados was going down the check list of what had to be done.
Send White First Aid Kits to all local venues. Check
Scatter Rad Away, and Rad-X Check
Distribute Energy Weapons to Military branch, and Gun Shops Check
Ship Nuka Cola to all the local venues, and set up Nuka Cola Vending Machines Check
Place two other nuclear war heads in strategic places to ensure Washington DC is destroyed Check
"Well looks like everything's in order!" Mrs. Glados smiled, putting the checklist down. After changing into her vault suit she decided to go to Justin's office, he was probably doing some last minute scheming for when walking around post apocalyptic DC gets boring.
Meanwhile
Justin sat in his office at his desk tapping away at his keyboard. The project he had been concocting was almost done, but he'd have to keep it a secret till it was absolutely necessary to reveal it. By its very nature it was a perversion of something good, and even his partner in crime would be appalled by this creation.
The elevator doors hissed open and Mrs. Glados stepped into his room, Justin as casually but quickly as possible alt+tab-ed to another window that was a blue print for "A Razor Blade Snuggie Kitten".
"Still hard at work?" Glados said prancing over to her husband.
"Evil doesn't spread itself."
"Very true, but it seems like we are all ready to go for the fallout adventure, are you ready? Are you excited?"
"Of course I am, both excited and ready, hell I've been ready for this since my second file hit level 20 and had beat all the quest lines!"
"Good, come along let's go get Ken and fly off to DC"
"Alright but in a minute I just need to save a few files."
Mrs. Glados nodded and skipped out of the room blowing him a kiss just before the elevator doors closed.
Sighing in relief he pulled up the window he had minimized, hit the save key, and named the file.
Ken hadn't trained for long before he was interrupted by the other villains. "Come on, we're ready to go to DC," said Justin. "Finally," said Ken in relief, "was starting to go a bit stir-crazy waiting to do something." Even though he was happy to finally get out of this place for a bit, he was even more excited to finally be able to destroy another city. Despite him be excited, he kept a calm appearance on the outside. He didn't want to freak out his new hosts with how crazy he really was. After Ken gathered up his supplies for the adventure, they all headed towards the hangar.
The villains (Justin, Ms. Glados and Ken) are going to have a massive Fallout 3 party in Washington DC, starting by nuking it with Ken's power. I don't know what they're going to do about the immediate fallout, since it originally took 200 years to dissipate to a (relatively) safe level, but maybe it's some kind of other tech they have.
The heroes (Alice, Farrago, Jack, Ryan, Tomoya, Youmu and Zero), unaware of this, are looking for six elemental stones to help them power up. Unfortunately, nobody is currently batting for that team, so I decided to make this to remind everyone when we get back. Ryan, Jack, Farrago and Youmu are on Ryan's airship, and I'm not sure about the others.

Thanks for that. Last time I checked everyone's asleep; I think we're just waiting for the ship to land somewhere so we can get this plot train a goin'. *looks around*

Is it okay if I make a (possible) retcon? It'd be easier if everyone was on the airship right now, and all doing their own thing. Don't worry, I know (most) of the characters well enough to know what said thing would be in each case.
If you'd rather not change anything like this, that's fine too, just tell me where you're meant to be.
The world around her flashed and burned, the skies turned dark with massive metal birds. Men descended from the sky and burned the land. She wanted to run but her body refused, her body wanted her to stay. They took her, they took her aboard the great birds, away from the watchers. When the armored men brought her on board, they injected her body with many syringes. The pain shot through her veins like fire but she could not scream or react. The fluids began to dull her mind, her mind hurt as conversations filled the ship. Others like her had also been brought on board and men and women in white coats took to them. They were attached to machines and beds. Suddenly the pain was sharp and the sounds clear, however it was in a tongue she could only vaguely understand. "Liberation" "Federation" "Liberals" "Scum" "State"
The days passed and she was injected with more things, some hurt, some pleasurable in ways before unimaginable. Then she just started to know things, not learn, but just know. She could understand more, what things were and the conversations and the faces of the people. Though she could understand what they said, she could not understand what they meant. "Federation" "State" "Liberals" "Capitalist" All meant nothing to her, but some words did, names mostly, "Katherine, Todaro, Alice, Aishur, Clerence, Dijad."
Then one day, an armored man walked into her room and looked over her. He bent down, black visor concealing a face. She reached out and removed the helmet and long strands of brown hair fell on her face. Alice laughed and Katherine bent down and pecked her on the forehead.
"How's little sister today," Katherine asked, smiling.
Alice smiled back but didn't speak.
The lady in white turned to Katherine, "The effects of Venen are starting to wear off, but the time she spent exposed might have damaged her mind rather severely. I doubt she will ever fully recover."
Katherine furrowed her brow, "What does that mean?"
"She has signs of autism, Alzheimer's, retrogradal amnesia, and a host of other disorders. I'm sure most of the symptoms can be controlled, but I'm not sure if they can be cured."
Katherine nodded and turned to Alice, "At least your recovering."
Alice nodded and reached out a hand to Katherine. The woman int he lab coat grabbed her hand and put it back down on the bed. "Try not to exercise your motor functions at this time. We are still repairing the neuron damage in the motion centers."
---
Alice awoke slowly from her sleep when the tendrils retracted from her body back into the wall, her head thrummed lightly and something vague stirred in the back of her mind.
"Katherine, Katherine," she mumbled to herself. She got off the bed and walked over to the bathroom. The soft sound of running water soothed her mind and eyes.
"If you are in that much mental distress I can administer more medicine."
"No, I just need some rest and water."
"Understood, if you wish to go about the day without the burden, I can survive without a host for 48 hours."
"No, no, I'll be fine."
"If you are sure."
Alice shook her head and stood up, taking off the spheres from her braids and letting her hair fall around her, then retying it into a single braid down the back of her head. "Katherine, what happened to you."
---
By the afternoon Alice was sitting in the hanger playing with ship designs. Ryan's airship was nice, but it could only be in one place at once. She would need to move fast to retrieve 2.0 with only 36 hours before the A.I. died.
Is Alice using the nanosuit at the end? It'll affect what I end up saying. Also, would Alice (via the nanosuit or otherwise) understand (at least basic) Japanese?
Thanks for that. Last time I checked everyone's asleep; I think we're just waiting for the ship to land somewhere so we can get this plot train a goin'. *looks around*

As Tomoya gets up from his bed he takes a shower and thinks more about a few days ago, he was staying at a hotel in Tokyo for a conference in the city, he wasnt exeptected back in a couple of weeks, so he doesnt have to worry about Nagisa, he then got out of the shower and then cleaned his gun and sword and then goes to bed.
The next morning he gets up and has a bath for once and then goes to breakfast, only Ryan and Farrago are up and he says morning to them and explains his plan to leave when he finishes breakfast and when everyone gets up, as he finished his breakfast he asks Ryan where the weapon room is and also if he can borrow a ride and Ryan asks him "Why do you need to go to that room, isnt that sword and gun enough for you?" he respondes back "Well I need insurence if anything bad happens".
Tomoya enters the armory and picks up a pair of grenades, a M14 customised with lazer sighting and flamethrower, rope, throwing knifes, boot knife, camo pants, a green tank top, a parachute/ slingbag, a communication set so he can be in contact with the ship at all times, a lazer pointer, survival kit and keys to his customised sports bike with offroad tires, parachute, upward boosters and protective screening, Tomoya says "Good thing jack built me this bike".
As the airship is flying over the coordinates of where the Mayan temple is suppose to be, Tomoya gathers everyone in the hanger with all of his stuff and bike, he says to everyone "guys I should be back in a couple of days or so, so try to gather all the stones in thats time, also when Im done ill contact the ship but ill keep radio silence on until I get the stone and then Ill contact you, everyone says goodbye and goodluck and then Tomoya puts on his sling bag and then gets on his bike as he moves onto the ramp and looks back to see everyone waving back at him and the he waves goodbye and jumps off the ramp towards the Mayan temple and then activates his bikes parachute.
I dont mind if you control my character, but can someone please make the plot move along to the point everyone splits up or go to get their stone, I also think that someone or everyone goes to DC at one point seeing its gonna be blown up and the villains are there, but im gonna make my guy is gonna leave in my post now
