::Tyr seemed overjoyed. Little did it occur to him that Zio had very well expected the trap, and was baiting him for another loss. That seemed probably for the moment the vampire gloated::
You fell for it... Alright... Check.

*Like a cat enjoying a scratch under the chin, Trilla's head would lean in towards Mastema's hand a little. Even if it was only fake affection, she couldn't tell the difference and it only made her easier to manipulate in the end*
Trilla: ~.~ | ......... heart
*Nana did take note of Thanatos' little furry friend. As long as the creature didn't interfear with her work, then all was well. So far Nana was almost finished with one of the so called signs. The acrylic paint dried quickly enough, so once done with all four signs, she'd move them back to the peace and finish her work there, before setting them up, or attempting to at least. Micha already knew the small creature was there, so he didn't need to turn around*
^__^
Almost...
Micha: . . .

Fenton: >> mrr...... *Fenton hopped off of the table and would be heard skittering around. After a few minutes, there would be a light "thumping" sound at the door of the library. If one were to look, they'd find Fenton batting against the door, perhaps trying to get out. If Micha had left the doors open, then the opening was now too small for Fenton*
Zio: *Reacting to this, Zio simply moved its own king piece one space to the right, leaving Tyr's own king trapped in the path of Zio's bishop* Check mate.....
*Mastema would continue stroking Trilla's hair without making another sound*

::Tyrsais was still gloating when Zio moved his piece, and was lounging back in his chair. All was well in his world until he heard those two words. It was all he needed to explode.::
WHAT THE?! How did you?! You are f$#&&@! kidding me! God D@^$*&...
::Such things would continue for the next few minutes. It didn't please him at all not being able to defeat this computer::

Zio: *Allowing Tyr a few minutes to cool off* Pardon me, Sir Himura, but your strategy was not flawed. Had I not calculated such a possible strategy, you would have beaten me. Simply put, I lead you to believe I was moving into your trap by moving seemingly useless pieces, so that you would not suspect my counter. My applause for a well done 386th game.

::Tyr sat back down at the chair, and nodded to the screen slightly. It was clear to him now that such a thing where their are clearly defined rules, and only so many choices a computer could defeat him every time. However Tyr felt his slightly human soul gave him a hand up in the unpredictable world::
Well Zio you are quite the Chess player... Was that child yesterday the son of Lord Mastema? Or another within the Citadel?

Zio: Thank you. I assume you are speaking of Lord Micha, as I detected him within your vicinity yesterday. Affirmative. Lord Micha is Lord Mastema's second son.

::Tyr nodded slowly, and for a second didn't detect anything wierd about the statement Thanatos was his first son right? It seemed to add up. Who knew there were other children::
Well... then Nana is his wife?

Zio: Affirmative. *It was a simple answer to a simple question. Now Tyr at least knew some of the reason behind Mastema's care of Nana, and the identity of the silent child*

::Tyr considered that for a time. It was starting to become more, and more clear exactly how things worked here in the citadel. These people were either all family or friends.::
Is Alpha also friend, or family of Mastema? Or was he actually created by Mastema?

Zio: Your hypothesis is not wrong, but it is not completely correct. Knife Edge served under Lord Mastema in earlier days. When his body was destroyed, subject's mind was bound to a new body in the form of the Alpha Zenogais combat automaton.

*After the contant thump of Fenton's head against the doors of the library finally drilled their way into Micha's head, the boy left his book to open the door for Fenton enough for him to leave. By the time the child had returned, Nana was just preparing to head back to the peace, to finish her preperations. She gave the boy one last final huge that lasted about a minute or so, and gave him a gentle smile. Content with that Nana went about returning to the peace, while Micha went back to reading, he was almost done. Within five minutes Nana was gone again, she'd gone back and forth through the portal several times to carry each aluminum sheet seperately, and to clean up anything else she'd left behind. With all of that finished and Nana now back in the peace, she'd varnish each sheet once, let it dry, and then apply a secondary coat. That would take a couple hours to do, and after it was done, then the aluminum sheets could be put into place on the posts, and Nana could begin setting them up. Then all of those in the citadel, and those outside of the barrier could see her message, no matter how silly a thing it seemed to be*
^__^
Just a few hours more.

*after countless distractions, interuptions, naps, and everything else a something his size could get into; Akai finally reached the top of the tower and stuck his nose out when the door opened curiously. Having found little on most of the other floors, there wasn't any fear*

*After a while, Trilla had finally woken up but stayed where she was, sitting on her father's lap as it was rather relaxing to be pampered. Idly her eyes spy the information on how the satellites are doing, but she can't understand any of it. Mostly she just liked how the words moved across the holographic screen, how the graphs and bars moved about, and the color of the screen of course. Every once in a while, her wings would flex and move about slightly. All of this was taking place while the wolf was wandering about the tower. As of yet Trilla did not see the wolf's nose, since she was faced so that her back was to the door*
Trilla: ~.~ | They're pretty words, what do they mean papa?
*Meanwhile Eecheb was back in the cafeteria, and the first thing that struck him was that the large red mass of fur was gone. Looking all over the cafeteria would be useless, as the wolf would be seen nowhere. It made the atmosphere in the cafeteria feel so much different, there was still fear but of a different kind. Instead of worrying about the big teeth and fur combo being there, now the worry was "where is it now?". Eecheb would go to the dish that had his favorite foods and start on those for now, constantly looking around incase the big bad wolf came back*
Eecheb: ninja

Fenton: Whoo~ ^^ *Fenton would nuzzle Micha's foot in appreciation before bolting off to who knows where*
*Mastema was still relaxed as Trilla asked her question* They mean many different things. Some are labels and names of different components, others tell me how well or not well those components are working. They tell me what I have to fix in order to make sure everything works the way it should. Hmm? *Mastema turned his head. Not actually seeing the wolf, Mastema knew something was at the door and knew through Zio what it was* It would seem our little stowaway is here...
