Leon awoke from his slight daze. Hm. Must've taken a little more than usual... He shook is off and walked after Holly, standing in a doorway he saw a couple of guards and Holly's father. He walked over to Holly's father and pushed him to the side.

"Outta the way ugly."

Here Leon was greeted by two burly men with guns, in an instant Leon had a revolver on the right one's head and a knife to the left one's throat.

"Let me pass."

Both guards swallowed audibly and stepped aside, Leon brushed past them into the room, where now Holly stood blocking his way. He returned his weapons to their respective spots and lightly touched her waist on either side, moving her slightly to the left so he could pass through. He smiled as he came face to face with Brad.

"Good day. I'll get right down to business, don't blow us up. I'd like to talk about how we can work this thing out."

Leon smiled and nodded as he spoke, taking Holly's place as a door-blocker. A substantially more potent door-blocker.




Edgar simply stared at Jeremy. He wanted to scream and shout, but that would solve nothing.

"You are a coward."

Edgar's face was stone still as he spoke. His voice was flat and filled with anger. Isha listened intently to the message and looked at Jeremy.

"I think you two need to work things out, and...I want to test the teleporter first, to make sure it's safe."

Isha spoke quietly, but just loud enough to be heard. Her voice was stunning against the silence beforehand. The tension not seeming to reach her.

Holly jumped slightly as she felt Leon's hands on her waist. She huffed as he nudged her aside and took her place in the doorway. She shot him a sideways glance before repositioning herself so that she could look around at everyone in the room. She then decided to position herself between Brad and Leon. She knew Leon was fully capable of taking Brad out right there, and also knew that wouldn't solve anything, so she was attempting to prevent anything like that from happening.

She then turned her back to Brad and faced Leon. "I'm sure Mr. Desin will do the smart thing and not hurt anyone..." She says, speaking softly. She was still unsure of whether Leon was back to hus usual self or not.

Edit By Xeios:: XD My character name's LEON in this RP, not Alexander. That's funny though . Changed it for you.

"Why is it that every person is talking except the one that matters?" asked Desin. "Leon, I hold no grudge against you or any of the Suvoj, and will be happy to help you, or any other neutrals leave this place.

"At the moment I have two ways to end the war at my feet. I can either blow the Marinae to little bits, or the Marinae can choose to join my people. At the moment then I am all for having the Marinae people vote for what they would choose, rather than leaving it to this arrogant man they call a leader. I honestly do not think that their lives should be left at his hands, and so they will be allowed to vote."

He wondered why he had to explain this so many times. Alden was the only one that mattered, the rest of these men could be taken to whereever they wanted to be, and so Alden was the only one that mattered in this.

(OOC: The rest of these men...Pfft. Loser. )


Holly turned sharply to Brad. "Alden hasn't spoken much because of his incompetence." She says, without even glancing in Alden's direction. Anything to get him fired up at this point... she thought to herself.

"To be honest...I still don't like th idea of the Marinae having to join you, Mr. Desin. As I have already said, no one should be forced to side with anything..." She paused to let out a long, exasperated sigh. She shook her arm slightly so that her bracelet would slide down to her wrist. She pulled back her sleeve, and in from her bracelet dangled her shard. "These things...these are what caused all of this bullshit." Holly said angrily. She then rolled up her sleeve and tucked her shard back inside.

"Rather than fuss over who is on whose side, we should be focusing on where the shards came from. We should either get rid of them all together, or learn about them so that we can use them properly."

OOC: Heeeeeere's Clocky!

BIC:

Mordecai Tatanyenvitch dragged his feet through the barren halls of the facility. What he wanted he knew was in here. He'd been hot on the trail for years now, but without reliable transportation, he was unable to make the trip easily. Over the years, his hair grew shaggy, and his face, scraggily with unkempt facial hair. Wrapped in dirty cloth that seemed to cover his body like a mummy, only his head was really revealed for the world to gaze upon in wonderment, as if he were a sign, a symbol of the hopelessness.

Within one of the doors, he could hear voices. And one voice, very familiar. It can't be... No way! Without thinking twice, his eyes widened, and he gained a sudden burst of energy as he jumped to feet and barged through the door that seperated him from his goal. He was an awe inspiring sight, as his face shown through the cloud of dissary in the room, and tears streamed from his icy blue eyes, and down his dirty, long face, and he stared into the eyes of one girl there.

"Holly! Holly, is it really you!?" He held out his completely bandaged hands which emerged from teh shredded cloths as if to recieve something of limitless value and of delicate build, looking as though he would carefully recieve whatever it was to be presented to him and keep it with him, protecting it with all his might...

Holly turned around to see an oddly dressed man who appeared as though he would pass out at any moment. Her pale face scrunched up in a puzzled expression as she peered at him with her dark blue eyes. With a flick of her wrist, she knocked a long strand of black hair away from her eyes, letting it flutter behind her, to her waist with the rest of her hair. His voice tugged at her memory, but nothing else seemed to strike her as familiar. She opened her mouth to speak, but could find no words to describe the suprise and confusion she felt at the same time.

Keep yourself together Holly...she thought sternly to herself. ...you're trying to prove a point to two men who don't seem to care about what you have to say...

She said nothing as she tried to distribute her attention to the entire room. There was Eric over in the corner, Alden, saying and doing nothing as usual, Brad, who was more than likely two seconds away from pushing past her and Leon and back to his base. Then, there was Leon, who was probably as confused and suprised as she was, only he'd be the one more likely to say something sarcastic about it.

She was confused. Perhaps afraid. He bore his soul to her, as he slowly moved closer to her, smiling the smile of a tortured soul who's seen it all and is grinning just to bear it. The dark circles under his eyes seemed to grow with each passing second.

"Holly, it's me: Mordecai! Don't you remember?" His body wanted him to collapse, but his heart wouldn't let him. He wanted her embrace so badly; an uttermost desire, a relief at the end of a long trip. His oasis in a desert of misery and pain.

"Mordecai?" She whispered. She repeated the name in her mind a few times before her face seemed to light up slightly and a smile played at the corners of her lips. Casually, she made her way over to him, but once she stood in front of him, she wraped her arms around Mordecai and hugged him for a moment. She then pulled away and looked him directly in the eyes. She wanted to say something to her old friend, but due to the other presences in the room...

She then stood at his side and pulled his arm over her shoulders, allowing him support to lean on. She then looked about the rest of the gentlemen in the room. She could tell that Mordecai needed medical attention.

"I'll leave you boys on your own for a few moments...to...hash things out." Her eyes then fell on Brad once again. "And Mr. Desin, I do hope you won't make any rash judgements until I get back."

"I think I'll wait for you," Desin said. "I don't kill neutrals, and thus I plan to wait until you can be escorted to a safe place. And, as I said, the ordinary people are going to be allowed to vote on joining as, that is after all our policy on conquered lands."

He looked at Leon, "so what are you doing here? I was not aware that the Suvoj were now allied with such people."

(Been torturing him about posting for days now...:p)

Holly looked up at Brad and smiled. "No one needs to be injured or killed...and nothing needs to be destroyed." She says softly. "Now I am not going to be a hypocrite here. I mean everything I've said and I am going to stand by it. I am not going to condone this place being destroyed by allowing myself to be escorted from here." Her disposition was calm and her smile genuine as she gave each man in the room a nod before turning and leading Mordecai out of the room. She knew she was most likely being foolish, but she didn't seem to care at that present moment.

OOC: I like being ignored, Vulkar. Thanks.

BIC: His journey had come to an end. The warmth of her embrace enveloped him completely, and he felt at peace for the first time in what seemed like an eternity.
"I am sorry to barge on you; it sounds as though you were speaking of very *cough* serious... *cough-koff koff... gasp* matters." He swallowed hard after he spoke in his raspy voice, his throat dry and buffetted by the wind and sand of the world outside of the city.
"Holly... It's so good to see you again."
A smile was worn upon his dry, cracked lips, partially encrusted with some dried blood.

OOC: He's wrapped up loosly in that wrappings...
Kinda like this.
Only all over his whole body. His arms and hands and fingers, as well as his legs and feet are the only things wrapped up tightly like gloves and such.
Just so you know.

((Sorry about that. I had a bit of a... writer's block))

Alden snapped to attention. It had happened again. Brief blackouts. He wasn't sure what was causing them, but that wasn't important now. How long had he been out? He quickly assessed the situation. Obviously it hadn't been that long: Brad was still in the room, trying to be threatening; Holly had moved to the other end of the room and was being touchy with yet another intruder; Edgar's lackey had taken Holly's place in keeping Brad from leaving; and Eric was in the corner, doing his job.

This was enough, it was time to get this 'negotiation' over with. The shard around his neck began to glow. He held out his right hand and not to gently slid Leon away from the door. He drew his gun in the other and aimed it at Dessin.

Desin thought quickly, his coming here had two purposes, and he planned to complete them both.

"So be it," he said. He suddenly activated his shard, and attempted ot use kinetic energy to throw Holly towards him. He caught her, and held a gun to her head. "Whether you like it or not," he said. "You're coming with me."
________________________________

Jack shook his head sadly. Desin had several cameras and a microphone on his suit, so Jack knew exactly what was happening. He had even told Brad some of his lines. Brad wasn't persuasive in the least on his own.

"Brad," he said into the speaker in Brad's ear. "Leave and detonate. These people aren't worth your time. Only detonate one of them, either of the capital ones. The damage will be sufficent if you do so."

As Holly reached the doorway, she felt herself quickly being tugged backward. She gasped as she felt herself crash into Brad and almost immediately tried tugging away. Before she could, however, she felt the tip of a gun touch against her temple.

"Bastard." She muttered angrily as she relaxed her body, letting her arms slump at her sides so that her bracelet would slide to her wrist again. She gripped her shard in the palm of her hand.

Why isn't is activating? She thought frantically to herself.

"I think you'll come to forgive me in time. Anyone who wants a ride and is not Marinae, follow me. That includes you old coughing man." Desin said, grabbing her shard and attempting to pull it away from her. He walked towards the door, and as it was already kicked open, and the guards taken out by Leon, he met little resistance as he got to his helicopter.

Once he was inside, he pushed her into the back, a sealed section, and went in with her, after waiting for the others to get into another section, assuming any chose to do so, still holding the gun towards her. He pushed her into one of the seats, and he sat in the one across from it.

"I apologize for my methods," he said. "I know you wouldn't have gone with me in any other way, and we need information on one of our clients. A client that wants you captured if I'm not mistaken."

Josiah was not trustworthy, and the E'shyum always liked information.

As Brad reached for her shard, she instinctively pulled her arm away (Its hooked on a bracelet, kinda like a charm bracelet I suppose). As he shoved her in the helicopter, she sat back, narrowing her blue eyes into a glare.

"You can put the gun away now, Mr. Desin. I'm obviously not going anywhere." She says calmly as she gestured with her hand toward the only possible exit. She then leaned forward, resting her elbows on her knees and lacing her fingers together so she could rest her chin on him. "I don't know what you're talking about and I don't particularly care. I can't see how I could know something that would be of value to you anyway."

"But of course you do," he replied. "Our client goes by the name of Josiah. He conviently comes in and tells us that we are completely right, despite obvious holes in his story, and for some strange reason wants an alliance.

"I want to know what your shard does, how you know Josiah, and anything else that might be useful to us. It goes without saying that we're not going to give you to him."

Brad holstered the gun in his jacket.

"'Not going to give me to him?'" She laughed as she repeated him. "I am not an object sir." She stopped herself, deciding not to go that route.

"I don't know what my shard does..." She says, letting out a long, defeated sigh. "It was given to me...I have yet to be able to control it." She admits. "All I know is that it usually activates and works as some sort of shield when I need it. I don't know why it didn't work when you held the gun to me." Holly decided to leave out the part about the suprise activation of her shard previously that day. Even she was shocked that it healed Leon the way it had.

"As far as Josiah goes...he's my friend, and he'd better not be hurt." Her voice was still calm, but her aggrivation was evident.

"Now its my turn for questions." Holly leaned forward more. "Where are we going and why can't I see Josiah?"

The moment Eric saw the gun in Brad's hand he stood and fired. He was only charged to protect Alden, but Holly was in his company, and her life was being threatened.

The first bullet whizzed past Brad's head and into the hallway. The second two bullets embed themselves in the door, just as Brad backs out, leaving inch wide slugs in the metal. Eric charges and slams his shoulder into the door, easily knocking the metal out of the way.

He slid to a stop at the landing pad and unslung his machine gun, quickly deploying the legs. He began firing, his bullets shattering the protective dome.




When Marina heard the gunshots and smashing metal, he made his decision. He burst into the room just as Alden pushed past him in the opposite direction.

"Commander, where's Holly? What happened, is she safe?"

Alden spun around and stood in-front of Marina.

"No, she isn't safe, but neither is the Marinae nation, now we are working on the problems, so why don't you help by doing your job."

Marina stood speechless as Alden marched away.




Isha stood on the pad as the air around her became cast in blue. She was engulfed in smoke, and then she was gone.




Eric stood behind Alden at the command station.

"I want a jet."

Alden was almost shocked by Eric's verbal brashness.

"You want a what?"

"I want to go after the girl."

"No, your job to protect me. She's long gone and we need your help here."

"No, she is in danger and you are safe here."

And then the nukes went off.






Alden watched the explosion on the computer monitor.

"I'll assume that we're alive. Now would anyone care to tell me why?"

"Quite simple, commander," said a lanky man in a lab coat. He brought up a diagram on one of the monitors. "We basically encased the bombs in small energy shield which contained the nuclear blast."

"Sounds effective. Any side effects?"

"Well we could only get the shields down to a certain size, so there was some damage to the immediate region."

"Such as?"

"Well, we were unable to get the main teleportation hub completely safe..."

"How long until we can fix it?"

"Not until we can clear the radiation from the contained area."

"Fine, send out a message to all networked bases telling them not to use the teleporters."




Moments after Isha disappeared, Jeremy prepared to follow suit, but he was interrupted by the operator,

"Captain Nalust, I've just gotten a message saying that the teleportation hub has been temporarily dismantled, and the teleporters are not to be used."

Jeremy stepped down, thankful for the last minute warning. In the lab tests, the results were always horrific when there was a malfunction during the process. And not having a hub to route the signals could be considered a major malfunction.

"Wait, was this before or after Isha teleported?"

"We are going to a E'shyum bunker in New York. My people are suspicious of Josiah, but given our stance with neutrals, we'll allow you to see him. However, you would have to be fully searched, and your shard may not go with you to see him. It is strange though that he didn't mention he wanted to see you, or that you were his friend. He only wanted the shard.

"Again, knowing that you're actually a friend of his, I must apologize considerably for my behaviour, my life was on the line, and I didn't have the time to argue with you.

"Now, about what to do with you. I honestly would not reccomend seeing Josiah, he says that he can create shards, and yet he wants your shard. He says he wants your shard, but not an old friend. Something is wrong with him, and I suspect it would only hurt you. But if you at least listen to the Eshyum offer for you, we'll let you see him."
___________________________________

Jack watched the computer screens carefully. The bomb had detonated as planned, but it had very minor effect. It was a pity that he hadn't been able to place a second in the city. But then, he had really not planned to detonate them anyway.

He checked on the bombs for the other cities, and quickly ordered for several troops to gather to protect them. It was extremely easy to get Brad into the Marinae territory, a few more troops would also be easy.

Meanwhile he evacuated several troops from one area, and sent on radio another transmission, one which would be bounced by his helicopters to most of the radios in Marinae territory.

"Attention, this is Jack Desin, leader of the E'shyum. Your leader has decided that your lives are forfeit, and the bombs can go off. The following is the dialog of the entire conversation."

He pressed a button, and the conversation played out. Ordinary people could vomit at the pride of Alden, others would scream in frustration. The media would sell many papers on this day.

"However, as an act of mercy, we have decided that we will not detonate the bombs, yet. They will stay in your cities as a gesture of peace. If you want to survive, you are to go to your nearest government office, and demand to join the E'shyum. This is highly reccomended, as these bombs are currently protected by more than just motion detectors, I have soldiers protecting each bomb. Thank you."

He leaned back, and waited for the Marinae to begin rioting.
