Welcome to Gaia! ::

In the years after the war many places have fallen. Warusawa is one of these. Like Del Cielos is was once a rich and thriving metropolis. The people of this city considered it a paradise and a home to raise the future. Ten years ago however that changed.



Now what remains are the ghosts of homes and sad eyes of people who can't move on. They are tied to the world they once knew and fight to reclaim it. Some fight for causes that have long stopped being reachable. Others fight to make right, the evils still going on there today.

This is Warusawa, the city that once was. And this is also Joy Division, the city that isn't. After the destruction of the civilian regions of the city the government moved in to protect it's assets and claimed that the ruins were un-inhabitable for the public. Now what exist there are Federation facilities that exist in secrecy to the rest of the world.

While the people of this world know nothing of what goes on in Joy Division. A small group of rebels still do. They fight a losing battle against the UF. These brave men and women are known as Voderak's Hand. A tribe of the Voderak and a thorn in the side of the military, the public only knows them as terrorist.

The is not true though. While they maybe militant, there cause is to fight back against the injustices of the UF. They do this through regular attacks on military forces in both Joy Division and the rest of the world.

Outside of town the trees grew tall and green. A dense canopy of Elms and Firs covered miles of land. Within this region and well ff the radar of the UF, sat the headquarters of the Voderak's Hand.

It was there, in the machine shop that J.D. sat tinkering with a converted UF tank. The machine had been left for scrap on a battlefield only months before. JD knew a thing or two about fixing these machines. He had worked on them all his life. With the turn of a wrench and a well placed kck to the engine cover he dusted off his hands. "That should do it." he said and moved on to the next.

There was never a shortage of work with the Hand. JD knew that every machine counted and he fought to keep a steady number running for the group. His biggest complaint was finding parts.

At the moment he had roughly twenty units in differant degrees of broken. Many were the M.A.T. models but a few were LFO's that had been used nearly to death.

JD was eager for the new delivery. The leader, a shifty old cus known as Lee, had told him about the new M.A.T.'s a few days before.

New or not JD had every intention of stripping the first one that arrived down to it's frame. With the parts he could have ten on the roll in it's place.
"If they ever get here," he said to himself.

Grabbing a cup of coffee, he looked over the repair invoices. A picture of his family sat on the edge of the desk. He smiled at this bitterly before returning to his work.

((Let's do this thang!! ^_^))

Rain laid in her cot, not moving. A glazed look was in her eyes as she stared at some invisible object above her. She quietly waited for the Ageha Squad to come in and have their daily "fun." For her year there, which to her was the only part of her life she could remember, she had learned to deal with it and not resist. There was nothing she could do about it, and she learned that fast.

Rain laid in her cot, waiting for them to come. She was thinking of the dream she had last night as she waited what seemed an eternity.

Rain's eyes moved from that spot on the ceiling to the two girls that came in. She had no expression on her face; she just waited for the torrture to begin. However, when the girls ignored her, she was surprised, although her face did not show it. Why aren't they torturing me? she thought. Something strange is going on...

She moved her eyes from the two to the three triplets running around the room. It reminded her of her dream. I was doing something like that, she recalled. But in the sky. With these weird jelly-like creatures flying all around me. And someone else... a boy... was with me, as well. She followed the girls with her eyes, wishing she could live out her dream. Was it real? Or was it just a dream?

Rain looked at him with her empty eyes for a while until she spoke. "I don't know," she said quietly. "I think it might be something big. Even the doctors seem excited." She looked from the girls, to the doctors, then back to Aiken. "What do you think?"

((Hey! Thought I'd get involved))


Aaron walked slowly through the streets, wearing a dark coat and keeping himself warm somewhat. He slowly walked up to a large bench, while sitting down, and looking around. Underneath his jacket...was a machine gun and several packs of ammunition, that he had held quite close to him and hidden very well.
