((Wait...how does Jad know what she's thinking? Did he just develop mind-reading abilities out of nowhere? xd Did Jad just become even more of a freaky-alien-thing than before? As if THAT'S possible...XD ))
Vexis was just trying to keep her 'cool' now, as if she ever had a 'cool' in the first place. Not only was she stuck here with a group of ships all owned by this Jad dude -which she loathed already-, but now the trigger of her paranoia -robots- was all around her. Why wasn't she living on a medieval planet like Eseptos? They wouldn't have all these freaking robots (Nor would they have Jad there, lucky people.)! " 'Dr. Len'? Is he the owner of that tall, red and gold robot? The one that can use Novias energy and duplicate itself...?" She asked, remembering how Rosa used that massive attack to destroy that mutant...and part of the planet. It all sent shivers down her spine, just the very concept of such a thing. So powerful, and so unpredictable.
~~
Kira's spirit stopped in her tracks, she gracefully hovered over the ground, wings gently beating. She stared up at the sky, something was falling from space. It was an object....no, it was a bit too small and oddly shaped to really be anything she could think of. But then, something occurred to her, and she rushed back towards where she left her body last.
((I gtg for a bit, be back later guys. 3nodding ))

"Take her, and run. I'll... give you time," Keth said grimly. He drew his weapon - which was not a sword, but a spiked mace - and slowly approached the village center, it and him soon as well being obscured by the thick, shrouding... blackness, that seemed to engulf the air like a sooty fog of ashes. But it was not difficult to breath, unlike how sight and most probably hearing was hampered and hindered.
Devvri couldn't say anything to Keth, for she had to worry about Kira. "C'mon, lass, we need to go," Devvri said, hoisted Kira's limp body up and over a shoulder. "We're heading closer to Eptic now. You should like that. More humans... how great," Devvri commented dryly to herself.
And then she and this perfect stranger were fleeing from the battlefield, her friend left behind as well.
If you stopped moving and strained your ears, you could hear the sound of laser fire and explosions, way in the distance behind... and the sound of the hopeful, dying.
Marth only watched and listened to the proceedings between Jad and Vexis. He found such annoying types of people... trivial, but that was probably his prideful nature kicking in. A silent pride, he noted duly.

"No.. doctor len owns two schoolgirls and a little boy... as well as a psychopathic schizophrenic little transforming monster that should be smashed with a hammer." Jad replied, "I've got no idea what Novias energy is... is it anything like Celestial Energy?" cake had materialized into his hands, and it was almost gone. (Black forest cake... yum.)
(Jad assumes things... she's gazing at the Atlantis, and she doesn't want to be here... 2+2=fish.)

((It's official: Today, SUCKS. >_>))
The 'object' fell to the surface of the planet with considerable force, the area seemed uninhabited, thankfully. RD sat up in the crater it created, scanning the area for any signs of Kira. Rosa was still up in space, floating just above the planet. She had sent RD to track down Kira first, before she herself would even consider coming down. The silver android caught sight of a faint energy signature, Kira's. However, locating her with this thin and wispy of a trail of Novias energy would prove difficult. RD had it's mini-satellite already positioned just right on the side of it's head, prepared to send any and all information to Rosa.
~~~
The tattoos on Kira's face gradually started to fade, until they completely disappeared from her skin. An invisible wave of power surged outward, away from Kira and Devvri, then pulled inward again, back into the frail body of the female researcher. Kira's limpid blue eyes snapped open. "...Rosa is here...I can leave soon....but I must find Maggie first...." She said, weakly, looking upward towards the sky.
~~~
Vexis just stared blankly at Jad, as if to illustrate how stupid he seemed right now. "Are you kidding? You don't know what Novias is? Jeez, you must live under a rock or something, dude..." She sighed, then glanced over at Marth again. "I remember you, kind of...." Vexis started up, since obviously Marth wasn't going to be the first one to speak. Vexis had a funny looking expression on her face right now, she curled up her bottom lip in a pouty way, she almost looked cross-eyed. But really, while that may look comical and weird, that was really just her thinking expression. Memories of that fight all flooded her mind, the fight itself, watching in horror as Aerclayr died, and the reviving of Marth afterward. At least, she thought it was the same person she healed, Eseptians seemed pretty standard in appearances....

"Great, you're awake," Devvri said, gently letting Kira onto her own feet. They had stopped some distance from the village, but from the light show being displayed, the female knight was not confident of the outcome.
"We need to flee... but what is Rosa, exactly? And if your friend Maggie is in that village... it could explain the force trying to attack us so suddenly. And it's big. At first, neither Keth nor I could discern any rational reason for such a drastic charge. We can't hold the village, but it will not be easily taken, either...."
Devvri brooded over this development for a moment. And still awaiting an answer.
Marth looked from the window he had been leaning on, to Vexis. "I never got to thank you. So. Thank you."
Was all he said.

Kira still stared up at the sky, half expecting to see another android launching itself out of space. But there was no such robot plummeting down to the planet surface. Not yet, anyway, but Kira had faith in her creations. Kira turned back towards Devvri again, now. She held out her wrist in front of her, the black device she wore as a bracelet blipped to life. The glassy screen on it shone brightly with the red, artificial light, and just above the device floated a miniature hologram of Rosa. "Rosa -Rosalie, Obedient Strategic Automaton- is my creation, she's a very highly-advanced robot. She's created for combat, but trained to use problem-solving before resorting to battle." Kira had a weak little smile on her face, "Rosa won't hurt anyone unless they attack her first." The hologram briefly flashed to display the red & gold android in attack mode, Rosa held the gargantuan silver weapon that she used in Syberius, in this image.
Kira closed up the device after a moment, looking back towards where the village was before. "Why would they attack a village just for one person? Why make that many people suffer just for one individual?" Kira looked troubled at this notion. "....Is there no way we can help?"
~~~
"...I'm surprised you even said that." Vexis said, chuckling a bit. "The other guy with you at the time, Blake, was it? Well, he said that you probably wouldn't bother to thank anyone."

And her final words were... "((I was just skimming through the previous posts in this RP, and came across the part of where everyone was accusing everyone else of being dead. xd
Marth: But...You're dead! (Aerclayr)
Aerclayr: You! You're supposed to be dead! (Layla)
Layla: I thought you were dead, dammit!! (Kira)
xd And you notice, everyone they mentioned is now dead (except Kira)... rofl )) " And then...she faded to darkness.

Devvri sighed. "We can, but we'd probably die. You, especially. They'd--wait."
The female knight seemed to ponder something, now. "You," she murmured, more to herself now, "you're human, you're an unknown. They would arrest you for traversing here. You'd be sent to the capital of the Empire, after about six months in a rotting prison. Whenever a shuttle has room, really. Then another four months aboard a ship you'll likely die on. They capture you, you're dead. A whole city of technology, willing to wipe this planet out."
It was almost inane, just because Devvri was talking fast and to herself.
"Keth knows what he's doing. But... Maggie... is Eseptian? That's strange. I don't know of any who left to become outsiders. That's certainly not her real name, certainly not...."
A more local explosion interrupted Devvri's thinking processes. "We're in danger," she said reflexively, attempting to guide Kira away. "It should be me in there, not Keth. He hasn't had a chance to practice his backhanded strokes... and we can hole up in the woods. Shelter from the mortars. Did you know, most of the human population here is well into the industrial era? But the natives are clearly medieval. And then, the mecca cities are post-modern, but dwindling in resources and population...."
This was a bit hazy. It seemed that there were voices further ahead, from the village. Chasing them down, it seemed.
~
Back in the village, a hooded Eseptian was carrying Maggie. He was surrounded by humans wielding energy weapons. Rifles, blades, shields. The ground was littered with human strewn with arrows, and Eseptian children wearing ghastly burns. Not dead, of course. But suffering intensely as the humans saw fit to allow them to die.
Tortuously.

That's okay. Just keep posting various, unimportant OOC crap. It's entertaining enough for me, at least. XD

((Heh. That's nothing I haven't seen before. But to those of us who have no life, even the insignificant rambling of the insane are interesting.
Not that you're--er, insane--or that you... ramble... but... I'm just a little...
...bored...?
