((This is OOC obviously, but automatic! ^_^ You are going to have a baby?!?! Oooh. Congratulations! Do you know the gender yet? I hope all is well and you are feeling better! No worries about not being here. ))

[Automatic Kitty]

(( Haha, yeah. I'm 30 weeks pregnant right now. Just found out last Thursday that I'm having a girl, which is awesome. Daddy and I were both hoping for a girl. 3nodding She's due on May 5th. We've picked out a middle name, but not a first name yet. ))

[xFacetiousxPuckx]

((Ah. Cuteness! ^_^ 4laugh If you don't mind me asking, what did you decide for a middle name?))

Azepael was very wary of this newcomer. He already knew her to be a Succubus, since he was charged with the extermination of a small tribe of them located south of the High Counsel. He did not know the reasons for the extermination, but he knew them to be fearsome warriors. Zerum Athos had trusted Azepael with 4 platoons of armed soldiers to dispatch them, and he did so without question. He even had a nasty scar on his back to prove it. He hadn't seen one ever since that dreadful night, so he had assumed that all of them had been killed off.

Apparently not.

He did not know what to think of finding a single Succubus this far away from the High Counsel. It did not appear to be violent, but the fires of that night could not be erased from his memory. His blade was begging to be drawn at the sight of her, for reasons he could not comprehend.

What was most confusing is that she appeared to want to hide her identity. Lord Xalelm obviously had no idea what she was, and almost seemed willing to help her. This was very unusual for him, since he was suspicious of all his other comrades her to begin with.

He's changed. I don't know if I've known him long enough to say that, but it really seems like he's changed.

Suddenly, as if they spawned out of thin air, a large cloud of insects came into view. A familiar, high pitched shriek met his ears, dropping a large portion of bugs; he didn't even have to look to know that this came from the Succubus. Without a second thought, he charged to stand in between Lord Xalelm and the bugs, drawing his blade and invoking its energies. With a single swing, wind bent and spun in a rapid whirlwind, slowing the insects advance and killing many of them.

He looked sideways at the Succubus, who was now right beside him. In a low tone so only she could hear. "While we may be enemies, we have a common foe at the moment. Lord Xalelm is in no condition to fight."

( Congrats about the child, btw! Wish both you and the child well! )

Saeon fumbled in his back pulling out an grenade, throwing it into the swarm of mosquitos. " I cant fight them! " He yelled as the grenade exploded, the swarm barely noticed. He ran back a bit to the camp area, quickly grabbing a stick and lighting it on fire. He smacked the stick against two trees next to him, waving the smoke toward the group of mosquitos. He jumped into the flames between the two trees using his hands to move the smoke, he felt his skin heating up slighty, but not burning.

(( Well.... Mosquitos, can shoot them, but you can light them on fire. And if he is standing in fire, cant get him biggrin ))

((I'm waiting for Demokritos's post before continuing the rping))

[Demokritos]

Corvus narrowed his eyes at the woman; she was hiding something from it, and what only made it worse is that she wasn't doing a very good job of it. Her secrecy troubled him slightly, which made him suspect that she might not be as friendly as he had originally thought. They were in the middle of enemy territory, and they needed to maintain a healthy amount of paranoia.

Before he had a chance to say anything more, a cloud of what looked like insects came upon them. Normally he wouldn't pay them much mind, but there was enough of them here to be potentially deadly. He lowered his arm to his hilt, but instantly regretted it; his shoulder flared up in pain, his arm dropping to his side uselessly. He cursed at his own weakness, taking a few steps back away from the cloud.

The woman let out this deafening shriek that seemed to falter the swarm, and Azepae came forward with his own blade to hold them back. The man whispered something to the woman; while he could not hear what the man said, he could tell there was a certain intensity in his expression. Azepael apparently did not like this woman too much, but was wise enough to set aside his own personal animosity for the moment.

Corvus frowned grimly. In his current state he was useless, and had no choice but to rely on the others.

(( Sorry about that. ._.;; ))

One way or another, the mosquitoes got what they wanted and that's was a sample of blood from everyone. Soon of whats left of the swarm left with the samples to the ruins of the lab were a homing rocket would fire the samples to the cold arctic. Soon as the samples were collected, it fired the rocket, but because of the damage to the hull from the explosions, the panel with the symbol of the strange new enemy fell off and came down near the group. It was a symbol of a beetle with a eye staring dully at them.
Johnson look worry as he look at the sky watching the rocket leave. He walk slowly over the panel and and started swearing as he pick it up. "Great, they're back..."

[xFacetiousxPuckx]

Akeno turned and looked anxiously at Yuri and then his gaze flicked towards Johnson and Saeon. Then the new female and a new male... Things were happening quickly. His eyes traveled then to Corvus. He saw Corvus just standing there... His ears went back slightly. He thought that he had healed the man... Only soreness should remain. Akeno flinched as if hit. His powers were new and wouldn't necessarily always work he supposed. He felt useless in that aspect...

Akeno looked to Johnson. Maybe he would know. He did know about the hidden facility after all. "Johnson!" He shouted over the bugs. "What are these things?!" He swatted at some that threatened to land on his other ear and his tail. He roared angrily. They had already taken his blood! What were these things?!

Then, after they had taken blood from everyone, they left as suddenly as they had arrived. Akeno couldn't help this sinking feeling in his chest. He watched as Johnson studied an ensign on a scarab... Then he looked up at Johnson's face, a question in his eyes.... "Again... What were those things? Whose back?"

EDITED

Johnson look grim as he spoke. "Those were DNA collectors. A group know as the High Guild of Scientist and Gene-oloy. But from what I know there is a new division know as B.H.K, or also know as Betterment of Human Kind. They are more of a group of mad men with unlimited resources from different governments and they use orphans and other creature for evil experiments. I should know I was one of them," He threw the panel down the ground and look over at the camp site were the lap-top lay forgotten. "They must know now that Abler is dead and killed the link to the laptop. So now we have no idea of their plans,"

[iGintokiko]

Yuri had helped Akeno fight off the bugs as well as she could with a sword and the use of her hands. There were too many and they were too small to hit every single one though. Eventually Yuri felt the familiar sting on the back of her neck and knew she'd been bitten.
At first, her only concern was for disease, but with what Johnson had said, she realized that infection might not be her only worry.
"What do they want with our 'DNA'," Yuri asked, scratching the back of her neck.

(( That post took a lot.. What's wrong with meeee..? D: ))

[Heart-of-Firebox]

Johnson shutters as unwanted memories of the cold steel laboratory. Where hundreds of thousands of orphans, all around the world, were injected, dissected, and mutilated all in the name of science! He remember his best friend becoming a monster, it was because of that, he found the will to escape. He wouldn't become that freak of a nature just because someone said so.

He quickly recomposed himself as tears began to form in his eyes. "Knowing them, very evil things,"

In the cold arctic lands...
"Payload deploying..." a small screen blink in the computer of the rocket. Soon the rocket's cone exploded as a round disk shot out of it and home it way to the base like a Frisbee. The rocket then self destruct as the disk went in the base.
It flew pass some sentry guns that scan it. Soon a fast reacting claw, grab it and place it on a conveyor-belt to the inside of the base. There a team of works quickly began to decode and copy the DNA strands to the computer. Soon a new evil would form from his as evil minds began plotting...

" Im pretty sure mosquitos imune to fire, are pretty evil also.. Now only if we had though of wearing like, bags filled with animal blood under our clothing and having our real clothing undeath that. That all they would have would be camels and cows. " Saeon said attempting to put out the fire he had made, after minutes of nothing he decided to leave it alone. " There we go. That fire is five times better than that small one. " He chuckled as he went to pull back the blankets from the old campsite. He pulled everything from the old campsite to the big fire and placed it all in a pile. " Alright.. So, we have food. Blankets, and whatever else I bought. "

[Heart-of-Firebox]

((Looks around finding it empty* Well... I guess it quiet here..))
Johnson sighed and sat near the fire. "Give me a blanket, it's not as cold as the artic, but it don't think I'm going to sleep well tonight," He pull out his golden revolver and reloaded it with some rounds. "I don't trust being here for too long. I must insist we move camp tomorrow, I hope you will understand,"
