Welcome to Gaia! ::

Other than for the few still heading toward him the rest were ignoring his screams and laughter, instead lifting the head scientist with desperate urgency and rushing him out of there. The few approaching Zaku had a look of anger and fear on their faces as they stopped firing and started kicking and pummeling him to unconscious if he wasn't already and even continuing if he he was.

When Zaku awoke next he was chained back up in a completely different room. There was no sliding glass door this time and the chains were tighten as far as Zaku could stretch. There was nothing else in the room other than for a TV, dim lights and a slightly stain drain under him. His wounds were just bandaged and nothing more. When it was clear he was awake the videos started.

The first video showed the times Melody healed Hexxis while under their control.

The next video showed a familiar man covered in darkness and shadows hurrying through the corridors full of gun fire,obviously searching for something. He shadowed here and there, killing a good chunk of his attackers until being fatally wounded himself.

Another video of that same man dissolving slowly into shadows as he was tossed in the trash right near a dead still life boy and a bunch of others.

Another video was of Tri between teen and adult arriving heavily injured to the SIU facility, allowing them to collar and cuff him but not letting go of the egg that was covered with his jacket. Breaking one guy's nose when they tried then warning them off with his wings until Mara appeared, he looked unsure afraid and protective.

Another video was of Ree as a child hidden in as Tri was put down verbally by some of the politicians he was protecting. Tri looked at them seriously but there was no hint of anger, every now and then he would glance at Mara then just nod not answering unless it was needed.

Another video was of Ree curled up in Tri's lap as he dozed on the couch in Mara's office, on wing lightly covering the child as he had one hand on Ree's head.

Another video of Ree climbing over his wings as he spoke to Mara, giving her a grin before trying to hide under his top wings. Tri looked faintly surprised then smiled and pulled him down, he looked relaxed as Mara just rolled her eye but didn't looked that bothered.

Another video of Tri and child Hexxis drinking chocolate and a cookie in the Aldas SIU courtyard and trying to talk.

Ree wrestling with Tri and laughing even as Tri stayed absolutely serious, winning most of the time. He lightly touch wings with him when they were done and letting him just talk as he listened and interjected now and then.


Another video where Tri thanked a nurse for a children's book before he enters the medical room where child Hexxis is unconscious.

A video of teen Ree kicking a child from one of the other ranking members. Tri interjecting before he was attacked, Ree not even noticing as he glared at the child. Blinking and say it was fine last year as Tri pulled him away before he was killed.

Another video was Tri and Ree as a teen doing aerial acrobatics as they easily dove and attacked together after a fleeing suspect. Moving to cover each other as one attacked or attack both before moving to gain altitude again, the suspect was a meta a they tried to throw balls of dirt up at them.

A security video of Trisuri and Mara talking the date of the cookie incident. "I need permission to bring Hexxis out for a bit. I want her to meet Ree" he said quietly as Mara just nodded " Well you adopted her why do....right right ...you shush" she glared as Tri smirked faintly. "Yes you have my permission" she waved him off. "Just make sure her Malice doesn't get out...you're in room 57A right? " waiting until he nodded. "Good, security doors can be dropped in that one" she then smirked. " Good luck. Ree might get jealous...or might make him finally go look for a girlfriend" Tri blinked and frowned but just nodded.

The next video showed the words Malrak Waph Yoarviri on the screen of a computer in a training center before panning to show a meta that was restrained after causing a little damage. A few injured here and there, they looked defiant then hopeless as if only realizing there was no imminent attack on the facility they were in..not possible rescue before they were killed. It then switched to other facilities or even just rooms where if they were captured were defiant, afraid, angry or betrayed while other just showed the bodies. It wasn't many before the video switch to pan to a report. On the report it was marks the date in which they acquired Zaku as a child the sharp rise of meta acquisitions that continued to steadily climb even once Zaku was gone. It plateau then dipped slightly before rising slowly again and dipping slightly during the time the Renegades started yet with each dip it always started rising. There was a sharp rise along the 7 year period where he was gone with multiple dips to indicate times they lost a lot of metas or a facility. Yet as a whole the Renegades had not stopped them or even slow them down by much.

The video switched to someone laying down, it could almost look like Tri maybe leaning toward more feminine slightly in shape but still masculine, another difference was the cutoff white hair. Their were breathing barely but had no eyes, their head was a mess of bandages on both sides and they seem to be missing limbs. Over his eyes were tiny stick it notes that said 1 and 2, on his head said 3 and 4, then on the sides were 5,6,7,8,9. On the table by him was a jar with a single glowing cat like eyeball.

The video switched to Tri resting in an SIU room staring at the same video followed by Hexxis's gruesome death then Zaku choking Mara. It was obvious not the first time he seen it as he held the control in his hand his face a mess of grief, tears and complete defeat.

The video switched to afternoon as Kae was shouting into the room. "Someone restrain him, s**t how did he get that video?! Get a healer and keep him down. Trisuri! Do you really want to do that? think ab-" the video caught off.

The video showed Tri as a child looking tired and fast asleep in Mara's lap as she brushed his hair with on hand as she stared at the meta on the other side of the table in a small out of the way cafe. There were few locals inside and no one made any comment on the metas there. "So can you?" She asked seriously, her eyes showing a certain amount of grief not at all covered by her usual facade.

Sol frowned as he looked down at the child in her lap. "It is stupid, what do you want us to do? He is doing it to protect you, why are you helping them make him a weapon?" He was frowning but looked tired as well with a flicker of grief in his eyes as well.

"I'm not going to be around forever and when he needs to run I don't want them sending someone who can read his every move because they trained him " she said bluntly.

".....sounds stupid to me but I can see why at least. " he sighed taking a sip of his drink. "Your trying to make something like us aren't you? You want him to do what I do?"

Mara frowned "A little ...it isn't like I can ask the others. They hate me for ...you know "

Sol just nodded quietly. "They are still stuck to their cause, if you keep into that they will swallow their anger but it will still be their " he said putting the cup down.

"Fine but not because of what you are trying to do but because of Ametrine if he was better he wouldn't have died so easily " he said quietly scrunching up the napkin. "I'll ask Shade(Bob) and I'll train him a few times but I don't want him dependent on me either. That is the most I can do ....and it is to much after what you did " he said seriously as he looked up at her.

"More than I expected " she said with a slight now. "Payment?"

"Just continue the help...I think we found their plans and tipped off the appropriate people. . If true you will hear Kira's name on TV. " he said simply.

"and Zaku?" She narrowed her eyes slightly.

"He's too careful. More likely that will fall on you. " he smirked faintly but it was short lived as he took a sip of his drink. "We will keep an eye out but we are not the only one, easier to head after the other EE than him. " he said glancing at Tri. "It isn't to late to give him to us.. "

"Have him think I abandoned him to? I know they are using him I'm just letting them think I was convinced. " she sighed. "He's adorable but he's traumatized by that b***h. If she didn't want a kid I don't know why they had an egg.mshe lost her chance he is attached to me " she said coolly but her hands were tightening around him protectively. "And if I did send him, who will he trust with you? None of you have time for a kid or the patience"

Sol took a sip saying nothing as he observed her "Very true " he said without much of a fight as he let his eyes linger on her hands before snapping his eyes back up to her. "I'll do what I said, you bring what you said and let's try not to make this a habit" he said getting up.

Another video with Andy ripping people apart as others wearing masks like hers ate them.

The next video showed were live as renegade members reacting to the words were captured again and killed.
.

There was one last video with young Tri and Ame, the later was making his artifacts appear and disappear to try and get a giggle from a child. It wasn't hard as young Tri laughed "Ha! Got you " Ame grinned and bopped him on the head.Tri made a face and grabbed at the pommel of the sword." Nu uh" he said waiting until he had a good hold before lifting him into the air. Tri looked surprised and clung on but the silent surprised look faded to a look of delight as he giggled, the video fading as he gutted the Haven security with a emotionless look as he moved to the next one.

By the time the videos ended there was noise outside. Five metas entered and headed toward Zaku, unhookingthe chain but keeping it on as they started dragging him down a cement corridor toward the sound of screaming.

One of the metas stumbled as Zaku wrapped the chain around their leg once. The demon let out a look of anger as tried to untangle it away before he brought him down completely. "SHUT UP!!!" one of them yelled and kicked a truck Zaku they were all glaring down at the muse with looks of hatred, a few of them were those he saw in training others looked like they may have just escaped experimentation. All of them looked like they wanted to see him die right then and there but something was hiding them back. The other three people jerks on Zaku's chains. Down the hall the screaming was louder and not all the same voice. "You are nothing but a lie " said another.

"NONE OF THAT MATTERS!" "SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUTUP!" "JUST DIE ALREADY!""THIS IS YOUR FAULT!!" They were screaming back at Zaku even as the demon was shoved in such a way he hit the ground before he could react, letting go of the chain only to catch himself. The anger was rising, and in one person's hands the chain they held in their hands was starting to melt as the other lost hold. Zaku managed to get to his feet befor they started trying to grab at the chain against ready to drag him lift him in the air. The one who didn't have a chain looked ready to start trying to beat him but would glance now and then toward the corridor they were trying to drag him down.

Zaku kept moving away just enough that they were having trouble grabbing and holding on to the chains. Behind Zaku was an empty and dark corridor all the rooms beyond were open. Zaku was preaching to those who did not care to hear, the look of hatred only seem to intensifying. "You don't get it do you?" One of them hissed. "-You- killed us all..you killed the head scientist..they are shutting down this project. Keeping only those that show any worth.... those that bring you in live." they said glaring at him hostility.

This time they managed to grab the chains before he got to far and dragged him forward each one tightening the chain until it was hard for him to move at all. The fifth one glared with such anger he looked more ready to rip Zaku's face off then drag him down the corridor. "Sounds so easy right? Why do you think any of us are here? You think fighting was what any of us wanted?! This was your war, you didn't care how many of us got hurt as you long as you got that latest guy yout hated, you were protected by your Renegades. Or were they just as messed up because of your powers as the people you originally sacrificed to Haven? " he glared. "We know...they told us..they showed us how you promised to be Haven's dog. Broke your promise there didn't you? " he waved down the corridor. " and for what ..nothing..Nothing at all except our deaths. " he glared back. "Each and everyone of us is on your head Zaku. " he said as they entered a large room. The room was lined with cages most of them empty other full of crying metas as they stared at one clear panel room with all their might. Inside that room someone walked back and forth walking to themselves before attacking the door.

Th women who had chained Zaku a few times in his room stared blankly at the metas and motioned to the room. "Who ever can tell us what is wrong with them will live" she said beforehand noticing that the person they brought was not another normal meta but Zaku. She made a face and looked away as she scanned for any volunteers who looked like they might be excited instead of desperate.

The soul of the person in the room was wrong, the soul did not look like the body it inhabited.

Zaku was lead all the way to the end where machines hummed softly and the faces of unconscious metas could be seen within. In the far wall there was a large pit in the ground and two metas were dragging a dead meta and throwing them into the pit. Off to the side Norcrest uniformed metas were dragging out metas from cages and either separating them to trucks that were ready to go or shooting them. There were few humans and they weren't really ordering the uniformed metas, they seem to already have their orders and were fullfiling them quickly.

The group that held Zaku dragged him to the last cage up agains the wall of one of the humming machines and opened the door before throwing him inside with a gold wing archangel meta. Sol didn't movejust stared out blankly toward the uniformed metas as the cage was locked. "This is alone on you ...remember that as you go to hell " the same one hissed as they moved to go get the rest of the metas in the base.

It took Sol a few seconds to realize there was someone else in the cage with him and even longer to realize it was Zaku. Once he finished and the others left he stared a tree the muse tiredly "Oh well...s**t it's you. " he said sounding tired, eyeing him up and down then looking away. "At least your cute " He muttered tiredly watching the metas in uniform attack another cage. "....do you really think anyone care right now about your words? " he just sighed with a soul wary tiredness. "They are just babies .." he said quietly. "Nothing more nothing less. They just don't want to die....you don't want to die " he ran his hand through his hair wincing at the screams.
