"I don't fucking know. You approached me. You are the interested party here. I don't know if you can even do much aside from looking at things.
So how about you make yourself interesting, and then I can tell you what I can do?"

Ella nodded slowly, saying; "I'll have to call my boss, but it should be enough." - She then turned away, and radioed her superior. He was not happy about the suggestion, but he did recognize that having an ETR squad baby-sit him was a waste of valuable resources. It was also uncertain if it would even work, as the ETR squad might not be able to bring Dalahar down. The lure of getting to study Dalahar's weaponry was also a factor - XPOL was always on the look-out for potential upgrades. Eventually, he agreed. He then noticed something on another monitor, that a portal with Forefront's signature had opened in the city. Ella was told to check it out, on the double.

Ella sighed, said that she would do so, and then ended the call. "Good news and bad news; The good news is that he agreed, in return for handing in your ranged weapons to us for storage, you'll be allowed to roam without an escort. The bad news is, another portal has opened so I need to get moving." She glanced down at the heavy weaponry Dalahar had dropped; "I'll call over a police car to pick this stuff up, would you mind waiting for a few minutes?"

[color=e50000]"Huh ... okay. Not that unusual, but still ...
do you want to come with me, or do you want to start your own adventure? I would look around, for either Ella or a phone book."[/color] Dala said, integrating Kuki's comment into her own.

Dalahar refitted his helmet. "Of course" he said simply
"Ella. In another time perhaps things would have been different. Goodbye. Tell Shana I've taught her all I can, she just needs actual practice."
He clasped his right hand over the centre of his chest. The old salute of the unification wars that the traitors had adopted since the heresy.

The cop continued aiming at Vyse and, when she got closer to him, shot her twice in the torso.

The representative looked at Blue with a blank expression as she spoke, thinking, Good grief. And this is supposed to be an ambassador? How have these people not been shut down, already... .

Once Blue finished speaking, the rep took a breath. "With respect, madam ambassador, you yourself said our goals may still align, despite the removal of ED elements no longer being a priority for you. So, then, I'm trying to ascertain what sort of arrangement could benefit us both. Currently, there are uncertainties about this"

The rep paused, taking another breath. "But, to answer your question, the shadow warfare capabilities I mentioned typically involve identifying a target of interest, either quick entry via gateways, or sending concealed agents, and swift exits. We can also mark a target, and track this. We have a not insubstantial arsenal of weapons and equipment at or disposal, however, we choose to minimize violence in our operations, so these are seldom used. Finally, any... live assets that may expire in the field, we can return to near full working order. I myself am an example of this case."

Code:
"Now that we're on this topic"
, Kuki began, walking a bit closer to those present.
Code:
"I think I'm going to leave today. I've enjoyed travelling with you all, so far, but, we've been in danger so often. And yesterday was nothing short of a war scenario. And... this isn't the thing I want to be involved in."

With the humble police officer's sidearm considerably lacking in stopping power compared to the future military rifles Vyse had been previously shot with, the policeman's bullets gave her far less pause. She staggered backwards a step, then retaliated by opening her mouth and launching a stunning bolt of electricity at her attacker from it.

"I think I'll make arrangements to travel back home. This could take a while, though"
, Kuki answered.
Code:
"In the meantime... I don't know. Maybe see if I can visit Anik. I'd like to say goodbye, before I leave."

Due to being hit with the electricity, the cop fell down just as the previous two had, allowing Vyse to simply walk out.

Ella returned the salute, touching her brow with the fingertips on her right hand. She then extended her hand to shake; "Who knows, we might meet again in the future. Hopefully under better circumstances."

Dala walked outside, and looked around for an information bureau, a phone box, Ella or any kind of store that would have phone books.

Blue sighed. "Now we understand each other. Tracking Anik and catching her might be very useful to us. As for what we can do ... magic. That means mind-reading, body control, whatever else you can think of, counter magic and such. And we can provide forces. A lot of them. Returning 'assets' to full order is also useful, now that Black is imprisoned and White is dead. .. Speaking of, freeing Black might also be a thing we would be interested in.
As for your specific interests ... we have magical artifacts, a traitor to dissect, a foreign country full of extradimensional artifacts in our realm, and, well, we are probably also strong enough to take items off whatever extradimensionals you can think of.

Interested? I don't know what kind of arrangement you want, but I'm sure we can get a good one."

Listening to Blue's answer, the representative nodded along a little. When she finished, he gave a firmer nod. "Certainly, we are interested.

As for the terms of an alliance, I suggest the following:
Cooperative measures are restricted to this realm only, although with the possibility to expand in the future. Naturally, non-hostility between our parties across all realms is assured. When it comes to issues in our domestic universes, our parties shall have privacy; We don't need to know what goes on on your world, and you don't need to know what goes on in ours.


Your party helps us improve on our portal technologies, and in return, we help you retrieve this Anik, alive. Intelligence for operations between our parties is shared with full transparency, and combining our forces is possible. In joint efforts, no action is undertaken without both parties agreeing on the method. When reviving live assets, we hold their contract for the duration of one year, after which they are returned to you.

Further terms may be negotiated."

While speaking, the representative occasionally paused, wherein he took a breath. Once he finished, the representative paused a bit longer, then asked, "Are we agreed?"

After some time, Dala found a phone book and Lambda's number. She created some fire where noone was looking, and a modern phone seemed to appear inside of it, out of nothing. Dala called Lambda, then put the phone between shoulder and ear, to speak to her.

"We decide if a person should of ours should be revived or not." Blue made clear. "Otherwise, agreed.
Tell me if you need anything."

Dala would possibly find Ella and, on her journey, would pass by a store that looked like it might have a copy of the phone book.

"Heading home already?"

Lambda, sat alone in her flat, was recharging when the phone rang. She picked it up, not recognising the number. "Hello?" The phone quality only added to the synthetic filter of her voice.

"Very well." The representative gave another nod, then held out his hand for Blue to shake. If she would, she would find it rather cold to the touch. "Now, madam ambassador, if there is nothing else, I'll be leaving. We'll contact you later today through the device I gave you, to make arrangements for our cooperation."

"Probably, yes"
, Kuki answered.
Code:
"Coming here has been educational, but I think I've been a bit too adventurous for my own good."
They exhaled, closing their eyes for a moment.
Code:
"I don't know."
