Zen watched her curiously as she shook his hand quickly and tried to remember her own name. When she decided on what to call herself he smiled. "Nice to meet you, Virus." He found the name interesting but didn't press for reasons. Smiling he nodded "Yeah I usually don't get much better then that. Though it's nice to feel a bit more secure rather than feeling vulnerable in the open." he paused. "Oh, this is Shadow. He's my pal, he helps me on my raids." he added stroking Shadow's head. Shadow wagged his tail and leaned into Zen. In the light Shadow's gray coat shone and made the jet black bands on his ankles stand out.

"Alright! Meet you outside your hotel in 20. I'm going to grab a quick shower." Rena said excitedly. She smiled as she walked from the room. She picked up her pace once she left the room heading quickly to her apartment.

Zeik continued to watch Izeno's warily, but curiously, while he pondered over Kire's actions and reasons. He was running into dead ends all over the place, coming up with nothing.
Heme sat up in bed his meds finally kicking in. Looking around his eyes paused on the awake Faven, who was currently moaning softly; then his gaze drifted to Keith, past Kire and Vure, he smiled at him feeling embarrassed.
Kire ignored the world focusing on two things, only one was obvious. He was intently tracking Kurai, waiting for something to happen or backup to appear. Though he only seemed to be waiting for Vure to regain consciousness.

Fuego gave an awkward smile. He was a bit worried about May fighting. It wasn't like she couldn't fight. He figured that she probably could, considering she was an experiment. It was the imprinting thing. Worrying about your mate seemed to come with the imprint manual... "We're probably going to split into two teams... Half of us will find Sora and the other half will go after Izeno..."
Kalm walked out of the door, blinked seeing Fuego and May there. "Is May coming with us?"
"Where are we going?"
Sho hadn't told them yet? "Rai just came back from the hospital. He said that Rena is going on a mission after a strange boat. Sho thinks it might be the one that Izeno is on. We're not sure, but it can't hurt to check... Of coarse I'm not sure if it's even legal."
"Well as I always say... 'screw the rules'." Fuego smiled.
Kalm shook his head. "Anyway we're suppose to be down stairs in about 20 minutes. I hope Rena won't mind..."
"What about Sora?"
Kalm sucked in a breath. "He barely had time to make a plan for us to rescue Izeno, let alone find Sora. Plus the pack is running on little sleep and food."
Fuego sighted. "Too bad Izeno isn't here... He's the one that run on no food and sleep..."
After about 20 minutes everyone gathered outside of the hotel.
((Yeah I'm just going to say it's been 20 minutes))
Ship
Keith looked over at Heme. So Izeno's Dark Side was effecting him, too. "You would happen to have any seals on you?" He may not be able to do a full sealing, but he might be able to suppress Izeno's Dark Side for a while.

Virus had so many questions to ask this man for starters, why he would need to sleep in an abandoned laboratory. Pushing her questions from her thoughts she smiled again looking down at his pet wolf enjoying the attention he was getting. “It is nice to meet you too Shadow.” She actually felt calm instead of her usual jumpy self. “If you wish you’re more than welcome to stay here just please watch where you step the floor is hard to land on.” She rubbed her nose again not wishing to fall face first again onto the floor. “I’m sure we can find…” She froze mid sentence, something felt wrong. The sensors in the tower were going crazy. Virus let out a short scream her hands quickly moving up to cover her ears as the high pitch sounds of the silent alarms rang in her head. To Zen it would only look like the screens where flashing red but to Virus it was like sirens screaming inside her skull. Spinning around she looked at the monitors as it brought up the outside cameras of the towers now activated shortly after Zen arrived not wanting to be surprised again. Appearing on the screens a half dozen or so scouts on crafts headed for the tower, scanning the surrounding area, searching for something or someone.
Looking back to Zen her eyes where no longer that of a gentle girl but one full of anger her voice sharp to match it. “You! You lead them here! As they drew closer you where sent here to distract me playing innocent, deceiving me… I said he could not be trusted… Hush, give him a chance to explain himself.” Virus felt more hurt than anything. If this man was sent here to betray her like this then there was truly no hope for the world. Someone she thought she could finally trust, from the way things look her trust that was betrayed. The screen behind her cleared and began to flash red again. In a silent command all the security lasers targeted on Zen ready to fire if the order was given. “Explain yourself. Did you lead them here? Some sort of a spy or a hunter perhaps?” She did not know for sure if the lasers even worked and if so if the would cause the entire tower to collapse if used. She just wanted an answer. If the entire tower had to come down around her for her to escape in the confusion then she will do what she had to. She waited for an answer from him, praying that it wasn’t as she feared and that he was there to capture her. She hoped he wasn't behind this.

In between when the alarms sounded an the camera showed the men Zen's features went from worry to unease. He went into a crouch as if ready to run and Shadow did similarly. He was so befuddled by the rapid change of mood that he found himself tongue tied for a moment. His face took on a pure look of terror as the lasers trained themselves on him. This must have been a trap. he thought irrationally seeing she had just accused him of leading a trap. He shook his head booth in a vague answer to Virus and to clear it of terror. His eyes glanced nervously from the lasers to Virus then he cleared his throat, shaking. "No, I didn't lead them here, intentionally. They must have followed me." He paused his throat closing. "I am not a spy nor a hunter of any kind." His voice was slightly calmer and didn't waver." He stayed frozen too scared to move but desperately wanting to flee to his freshly stolen jet.
Nias
Rena showered and was in front of the hotel almost exactly 20 minutes later. She looked around at all those gathered there then asked. "What are you all doing here?" She was still clueless about the possibility that the ship she was to check on may have Izeno aboard, but if she did she would go ballistic.
Ship
Heme sat up happily. "Seals, for dark spirits and energy, are plentiful around here. We just so happen to have someone who uses them on a regular basis." He glanced at Kire who did nothing in response. "He walked across the room to a wall cabinet. "You should probably come pick out the ones you want." He said opening a deep drawer.

Mayithra picked up the cat and set him on the bed, then filled his bowls with food and water. "I'll be back." She told the cat then closed the door behind her after turning on the light. She followed the two, eager to help out, the only way she was staying behind was if they tied her up. "I could fly you to the ship." She said listening to what they were saying. "It'll be faster than walking."

The lasers stayed focused on Zen but this time when Virus spoke her tongue was not as sharp. “So you did lead them here.” Watching him closely she could see that his body was shaking and the look in his eyes looked like true fear. Either he was telling the truth or he was a very good actor. It didn’t matter she didn’t have the time to debate about weather he was telling the truth or not. The men outside where closing in and if she was to escape she had to move and quickly. “Go. Get out of here I have work to do.” The lasers stayed on him just in case he decided to come after her but wouldn’t fire if he left. Turning around she faced the computer her mind quickly moving through its systems whipping it clean. Her whole purpose in being here was to find any rogue experiments that would help her to get to Nias where with any luck she wouldn’t be hunted. She couldn’t let her research fall into wrong hands; she wouldn’t no matter what it took. As she worked female voice came over the intercom. “Full system failure, self district will accrue in three minutes.” With any luck she could escape in the confusion of the tower collapsing. Either way she would not let herself be captured, never again would she become a lab rat again.

"..." Sho was debating whether or not he should tell Rena. After all it wasn't for sure. They just thought Izeno was on the ship. And didn't want to miss the chance. "Rai told us about the mission-"
"We're on a rescue mission!" Rai randomly yelled.
Kalm tackled Rai and put his hand over his mouth. "Rai, don't just blurt things out!"
"Why can't we tell her?" Rai asked. "I mean we know Izeno is on the ship, right?" Rai looked at Sho.
Sho sighed. Well leave it to Rai to get everything out in the open. "No, Rai we DON'T know if Izeno is on this ship. I'm sure there are millions of missions like this. I mean we were on an unidentifiable ship, too."
"That ship had Izeno on it, too!" Rai yelled, happily.
"Izeno's scent," Komoro said.
"Right. We're just going to check the area for Izeno's scent," Kalm tried to explain to Rai. "Then we'll go from there."
"I think we'll be fine for now," Fuego told May. He wasn't really listening to Sho try to explain the plan to Rai and Rena. "Although if the ship already set sail, we may need you to Fly us over to it. Rai and myself at least. I can't swim at all..." Fuego and water did not get along.

Keith slowly stood up, trying to hide the painful expression on his face. It still hurt to move. He walked over the the cabinet, looking through it. They didn't have anything for a full sealing, but there might be something to last for a little while. Keith took a couple of things, then made his way down to where Izeno was being kept.
Izeno looked up when Keith walked into the room. His Dark Side chuckled. "That's not going to work. My powers are the factor that make the seals work."
Keith could tell Izeno was pissed at him. It wasn't like Izeno was showing it, but after working with Izeno for as long as Keith had, it was easy to read him. "That's why I'm going to channel some of my energy into the seal." He unlocked the door, stepping inside. Normal Keith wouldn't have been worried. Izeno wasn't as dangerous without his powers. He hadn't factored in Izeno's Dark Side. He didn't think that being without powers would effect Izeno this much.
Keith channeled some of his energy into the seal. He let the seal go, and it floated over to Izeno and attached itself to Izeno's arm. He did this again with another seal. The seals would only work if Izeno wanted them to. That was his power, and that was the energy he channeled into the seal. He didn't need to worry about Izeno going crazy and killing the whole ship. He knew that Izeno didn't want to hurt Faven or himself. He didn't like being a monster anymore.

Mayithra laughed at Rai's enthusiasm, but listened to the explanation of the plan. She nodded at Fuego, it made sense. "Do we know the intended course of the ship?" She asked, just in case they did need to chase the ship down.

Zen suddenly felt horribly guilty. He hadn't know he was being followed nor did he know he would be putting someone else in danger. His eyes shifted anxiously from the lasers to Virus taking small steps backwards towards the door. He paused several feet from the door when the self destruct message sounded. He glanced briefly at the lasers then took a huge step of courage, hoping against hope that he wasn't shot for this. "Please don't kill me." he pleaded dashing across the room in a second then just as quickly, but carefully made sure she wasn't attached. He hoped to make it past this point running back towards the door. "I will get you out of this mess." he said kind determination in his voice. Shadow had already left the tower and was in the ship swiftly preparing everything he could for take off.

Rena was about to say that she had only asked for Rai to come when Rai shouted. Rena's face took on a look of bewilderment. Her mission was not to rescue. Then her ears caught Izeno's name and her features became more serious and somewhat annoyed. Though it probably wasn't the ship it had the possibility. Just hearing Izeno's name jarred her out of the so carefully placed mind set, suddenly it was personal. This made her a little uneasy in the back of her mind. Rena ended up saying nothing to them; instead she got down on all fours and took off at a painfully fast pace to the dock where the ship should be waiting.

After Keith left Heme at down on his bed and watched Kire. He was playing with Vure's bandage agian. He must be worried he always sought Vure when he was worried about something. The bound between those two was very bizarre. He continued his watch in silence glancing over at Faven every now and then, wishing he could do more than what he already had.
Zeik said nothing when Keith appeared nor did he change his posture. He just continued to gaze at the two, now inside the cell somewhat boredly. Though anyone who cared to actually look at his eyes would see that they betrayed his curiosity.

Virus finished whipping the system but now she had to figure a way out of here. She didn’t even give it a second though before she heard Zen pleading not to be shot so she turned around. Looking over her shoulder she ordered the lasers to stand down just before they fired on him astonished that he would risk his like that that. Before she even realized it he had quickly pulled the wires from her body and she was being pulled to the door. She didn’t fight him when on the way to the exit, too much in shock to even if she wanted to. Being pulled from the system so quickly put her in a little bit of a daze but it didn’t take long for her to regain her head but she had enough sense to grab a small bag on the way out. Just outside she could see Shadow preparing a small jet wondering if that was what he planned on escaping from. If so how exactly did he expect them all to fit and if by some miracle they could, how would they out fly the search party? “You expect us all to fit on that?” She asked throwing her bag over her shoulder. It was everything she had left that connected her to her old life, whatever it may have been.

Zen was so relived to be alive that he didn't see anything as impossible now. "We'll manage, somehow." There was only one seat in the jet and very little space around it. Shadow dutifully took up the4 cramped position behind the seat. Zen jumped into the plane and, virus now in a sitting position on his lap, shut the door and began to move the plane. He wasn't sure if there was enough room anywhere else for her but didn't care at the moment as he was focused on maneuvering the craft to take off. He did this expertly but by the time he was taking off he saw some of his pursuers. He mumbled something under his breath and pulled the craft into a nearly vertical position. He hoped that the clouds would give him a little cover while he tried to figure out a good plan for escape. He had to take into consideration that the ship that was only meat to hold one was now holding two and a wolf. Not to mention while Virus was on his lap his movements would have limits.

Virus felt a little odd sitting in Zen's lap. She was afraid to move, not wanting to hurt him or make things for difficult for him to maneuver the ship. As they took off the timer on the self destruct ran out and the ground floor that they where just in exploded. Losing its base, the tower began to collapse floor upon floor. Dust clouds from the debris shot out in all directions giving them a change to get off the ground without being shot down. When they were clear of the dust clouds however they became nothing but a moving target free to shoot at. Their pursuers fired at them, missing so far but who knew how long their luck would hold out. Virus looked back over Zen's shoulder trying to keep from moving too much when they shot straight up into the cover of the clouds. She had to do something and fast. Her mind raced trying to find a solution to their problem, what could she do that could help them out of this situation. Her eyes locked onto the planes behind them, if she could focus enough maybe she could bring them down. She just had to get close enough.
Her eyes glossed over as she searched for the codes that all the ships transmitted. Almost like in a trance her mind disconnected from reality as the nanites in her blood raced keeping her connected with the machines. "Slow down Zen. Let them get as close as you can." She said her unwavering, her voice extremely calm considering the situation. She didn’t give him a chance to comply; instead she took things into her own hands. She knew what needed to be done and it would be faster if she did it instead of telling Zen what to do. Lifting her arm up, she placed her hand on the dash in front of her. Being so close to the components in the ship it was effortless for her to gain control. Slowing the plane down her eyes stayed locked on the targets behind them. With their pursuers hot on their tail a very faint smile moved across the corner of her lips and was gone just as fast as it had appeared. "Gotcha." The panes behind them began to smoke, their systems that kept them from over heating was an easy enough thing to turn off. Bursting into flames the planes quickly began to descend until they couldn’t be seen in due to the clouds. There where still a few left. They where out of reach for her to do anything with and after witnessing what happened to the others she knew they wouldn’t risk getting close. Staying back they began firing the clouds not offering much camouflage.
Virus turned her head back around and slowly slid her hand across the dash searching for something. There! The plane revved up loudly and quickly began to accelerate in speed. Over ridding the engines safe guards where easy so now she could push the engine to its limits to give them a boost. The only down fall was if they did this to long the engine would over head and burn up and they would be stuck again. Just a little longer you can hold out a little longer She prayed to silently hopping that it would last long enough to put enough distance between them and the people shooting at them.

Zen was so focused on trying to out run that he didn't even glance down at the explosion. The steady sureness in her voice was the only thing that made him even think about slowing. Though he really didn't have much of a choice. Before he could react Virus had leaned forward and laid her hand on the dashboard and did something that boggled his mind; She slowed the plane. A look of complete surprise, with a hint of nervousness, crossed his face as the planes closest behind them exploded. She didn't stop there, the engine was now going past the suggested limits and they where making great speed though the sky. He was some what comforted that the other planes didn't seem to found of getting close. After a minute he found his voice. "You know this particular craft has a camouflage system." He paused reaching to the dash and hitting a button. The ship's paint changed colors to a sky blue with a spray of white clouds. "I was going to engage it at first but I knew that they knew what kind of ship I'd stolen. Anyway now that we are further from them it might help." He shifted trying to figure the best way to ask the questions he wanted to ask. "Umm... how did you..." he cleared his throat putting aside his curiosity for safety's sake. "Would you help me locate the tracker? There must be one it would have been the only way they could have found me so quickly..." He cut off sounding like he was rambling and not even sure about what had happened or what she could do. He just had a gut feeling that she might be helpful in locating it.

Virus blinked several times, Zen's voice pulling her from her trance like state. Pulling her from the dashboard she let it fall limp to her side. Shaking her head a little she rubbed her head just above her eye brow. If felt like it was going to explode and everything was spinning, stretching herself that thin by doing so many things was exhausting. Surprised when the ship became cloaked she now felt a little embarrassed that she went to such extremes for no reason. She ignored his comment about it being stolen; at this point she didn’t care how he got it only that they had it. He didn’t have to finish his question, Virus already knew what the end of it was and her ice ran cold when she realized what he wanted to know. Could she tell him? Would he turn her in or shun her for being an experiment? She didn’t want to know the answer so she was relieved when he dropped the subject and moved to the business of the tracker. “It should not be a problem.” Her voice had a tone of sadness in it. She was afraid the more she used her abilities the greater of a chance that he would want nothing to do with her. Her head was still spinning from the exhaustion of escaping but she managed to locate the tracker fairly quickly and burned it out. A spark coming just outside the plane hidden under the wing confirmed it. “There it’s done.” Virus gave him a faint reassuring smile hiding the fact that she felt like she was going to pass out.

Rai sweat dropped. "Oops... Did I do that?"
Sho sighed. "We better follow her." He hated dealing with imprinting at times like this. If Rena was anything like an imprinted wolf, then it was likely to just kick down the doors of the ship, claw flashing. He didn't know Rena well enough to know what she was going to do. That was the thing about imprinting; you stopped thinking logically after a while. It brought out the best and the worse in you. "Let's move out."
"Well we know that it's going back to Siscore. Other then that..." Fuego turned his head when Sho transformed into his wolf form. "Guess it's show time..." Fuego mumbled under his breath. "Just follow one of the wolves. We shouldn't be that hard to spot." Fuego explained before transforming, and running after the rest of the pack.

Keith locked the containment zone, and walked across the room. He sat down on the floor, facing towards Izeno. He smiled.
Izeno ignored him. It was too bad that Keith wanted to talk. He had nothing to say.
We should kill him first.
Izeno was ignoring his Dark Side, too.
"Zeik, do you mind standing outside of the door for a few minutes. I need to talk to Izeno alone."
