Jeremy saw the quadruple approaching the helicopter. This was it, the moment of truth. He could try to hide, but he had to reveal himself to his brother eventually. He stared at the metal floor as Eric climbed into the helicopter, followed by Alden, Isha, and finally, Edgar.

"So be it," Jack said. "Also, I know you think you can easily leave our grasp, but if you do, our alliance is canceled, and every single man in my army will come after you. Strong as you may be, you can't take the most powerful faction currently on this earth."

He tossed the shard back to Josiah. "Now, let us get to business. what do you need?"

ooc: As Amudaus stopped posting, then unless he says otherwise and wants to complete the mission, I'm going to assume that he's finished his mission.

ic: Brad was ready, he had his orders. He himself was to attempt to find the Marinae leader, and speak with him. "get me a helicopter. I'm flying into Marinae territory, and speaking directly to them."

The helicopter arrived, and Brad quickly jumped into it. "Broadcast the radio waves." he said, "I want anyone with a radio within several miles to be able to hear what I've got to say."

The helicopter launched, and they moved on, into Marinae territory. Intelligence said that Don should be to the north. This helicopter was unusual. It was made out of a type of hardened plastic, as hard as metal, but unable to be locked onto. The helicopter was also, as a result, extremely light and fast.

Hopefully then Marinae air traffic security should notice him soon. No matter, they woulodn't dare touch him once they knew what he had.

The men filed into the helicopeter, Isha too. And one by one found seats. Edgar boarded last and noticed something was amiss. Is...That...JEREMY!? Edgar's mind raced with ways to make sense of this whole thing. His face contorted with rage. He usually never became this passionate. In a sudden movement, he struck Jeremy in the face with his fist. A blow powerful enough to make him feel it. Edgar sat down and stared directly at Jeremy with disgust, his eyes showing fury, a tear running down his face. He wanted no explaination, he wanted to destroy jeremy now for lying this whole time. For hiding from his own blood. Isha saw how enraged Egar had become and attempted to comfort him by rubbing his shoulder. Leon sat back and watched this spectacle. 'He reacted more violently than I did.' Leon thought while shaking his head in disbelief.

"Edgar, all will be explained soon..." Leon tried to sympathize with him.

"No, he is dead to me, hear me!? DEAD!"

Edgar shook with fury, and looked in the other direction, slapping Isha's hand away from him.

Jeremy rubbed his face. He probably deserved that. He bit his lip and kept a straight face.

"Okay commander, take her up."

The helicopter ascended and began heading west, towards the Marinae HQ, in San Francisco.

After several tense minutes, Jeremy decided to break the silence. He glanced at his watch,

"It seems that we are running a bit behind schedule. Hey Leon, have you ever teleported before?"

He leaned back and whispered to the pilot. The chopper veered to the north.

Holly gasped as Edgar reached out and struck Jeremy. It wasn't so much the action itself that suprised her, but who committed the deed.

Still stunned, she sat back quietly, trying to prepare herself for returning to the Marinae base once again.

He'd just better not be there...she thought to herself ruefully before her mind was sucked back into the current situation.

Holly raised an eyebrow. "Teleport?"

While Edgar stewed and Isha comforted him Leon gazed away and began daydreaming. Snapped back into reality by being teleported, he shook his head side to side. The shard-eye in his skull began sensing a large amount of activity in the direction they were now flying.

"I guess teleportation is something I'll be experiencing today too." He seemed to speak solely to himself, loud enough for others to hear, but not loud enough to be actually directly speaking to anyone. He now began mumbling. "Too many new experiences today..."

Edgar crassed his arms tightly across his body. He knew he should be joyful, happy that his brother is alive. But no, he was furious, filled with rage, disgust, and hatred. How could his own flesh and blood decieve him like that? Isha wrapped her arm around Edgar's neck. She was doing her best to console him, but he would not comply easily.

"How exactly can one teleport?" Holly asked. She casted a glance at each person on the helicoptor with her, not caring who gave her an answer. However, her gaze stopped at Isha. She felt sorry for her. She seemed to be trying to comfort Edgar, but to no avail.

The helicopter began to descend.

"Teleportation is one of the newest technologies developed by the Marinae scientists, but it has spread fast. We have tried to keep it secret, for the obvious strategic advantage."

Jeremy climbed out of the helicopter and began to remove one of his leather gloves.

"The principle is actually quite simple. A cloud of gas is dispensed, which causes the nervous and muscular system to relax greatly. Then you are just broken down into a stream of data and sent through a cable to the other end, where you are reassembled."

He pressed his hand on a scanner, and scanned his retina before entering a small underground bunker.

"The main problem is that all of the teleportation pads must be linked by a physical network. We've tried experimenting with wireless networks, but there is often some form of interference which leads to... disturbing results. We've pushed the success rate all the way up to 63 per cent."

He climbed down a staircase into a small room. One side was occupied by a man operating several computers. The other two walls each had doorways.

"This is one of our bunkers for monitoring the Suvoj base, no offense. It's occupied by three men, who take two shifts sleeping, and one shift working."

He opened the door on the far wall. On the other side was a room solely occupied by a large green circular pad.

"If you'll just stand on the pad, we will be instantly transported to our San Francisco HQ."




Josiah took his shard back from Jack. Success. He stood.

"Very good, I'm glad we could come to an agreement. Now, I need you to get a few choice items from the Marinae. I also need a shard. It is currently in the possession of a young girl..."

"Very well," said Jack. "I need her name and location and I should have it within the next twenty four hours."

ooc: I got permission from FX to do this, no one get mad.

Brad Desin continued in his helicopter ride. He had just now arrive in restricted Marinae airspace, a mile from reaching San Francisco. He sent out the radio transmission. "People of the Marinae," he started, "I currently hold in my hands your future. If the marinae leader does not contact me in an hour, this, and every other city belonging to the Marinae is going to be destroyed. Our forces have placed a nuclear bomb inside each city in hidden locations. I will detonate each of them in an hour if I am not contacted.

"And everyone, it is advised the you evacuate."

Currently then there was a helicopter over every major Marinae city, broadcasting the same message. Brad was suprised that no one had called and told them to leave the restricted airspace. Were it not for the fact that every nuclear bomb was set to detonate if he died, he would be worried.

Leon shook his head and stood quickly, he walked through the base, and the message that was playing before they landed was ringing through his head. Edgar and Isha were with him.

"Oooh, yay, now I get to experience what it's like to be NUKED!" Leon swore under his breath, what a fun day this had turned out to be. "Well, Don, I hope you talk to them, I don't know what they want, and I don't care, but they really seem like they want to bomb the living life out of us, and I've got too much to learn and too much to kill to be dying anytime soon."

Edgar laughed lightly at Leon's reaction, it appeared all the consoling from Isha was helping. Isha loosened up a bit after Edgar's laugh, but not too much. It was her job to stay cool.

"Well Leon, we'll be sure to let you keep killing. We're teleporting somewhere, right Alden?" Edgar was loosened up, he didn't like the idea of being nuked within the hour but he figured Alden was the sort of guy who would prefer self-preservation to everyting else. Isha grabbed Edgar's attention and made some signs to him. Edgar nodded and signed back.

(K...I'm stupid and had difficulty following these last few posts, so bear with me.)

Holly followed after Jeremy, listening to his explanation of teleporting. For a moment, she forgot all about her resentment toward the Marinae, as she listened to Jermey intently and trailed closely behind him. She counldn't help but wince at some parts of the explanation.

"Sounds pain-" She was cut off by the message broadcasting over the Marinae bases(This is where I got confused, just fyi). The moment it was over, she made a sharp 180 degree turn on her heels. Her blue eyes shot directly into Alden's direction, as she stormed over to him. Stopping but inches from him, she looked up at him, her eyes filled with anger.

"Contact him. Now."

((yeah, I was gonna make Xeios edit his post...but w/e))

Alden had remained silent the entire time, baffled by the recent turn of events. Things had definitely not turned out the way he had planned. He was almost shocked when Jeremy revealed one of their greatest strategic secrets. But Jeremy knew what he was doing, Alden would trust him with his life. He was surprised when he let himself be exposed to his brother, but Alden had told him that it would happen eventually.

He was incredulous when the girl yelled at him. No one commands Don Alden. He was about to speak up when he caught a glance from Jeremy on the other side of the room.
Drop it, it said. He calmed himself and pushed past Holly. He spoke to the frightened computer operator,

"I want to meet him in person."

The man nodded and turned to the computer, working at a frantic pace.




In the air above the Marinae base, the radio in Dessin's helicopter crackled.

"Captian Dessin, we are requesting that you make a landing for a face to face conversation with Commander Alden. Please direct yourself towards the designated landing zone."




As Dessin stepped through the hydraulic doors two armed guards approached him and led him down an immaculate white hallway into a large conference room large enough to fit 20 or 30 people. It had a large semicircular table facing a wall sized screen. One of the guards spoke before leaving the room,

"Wait in here. Alden will arrive momentarily."




The operator nodded to Alden. The teleportation pad began to glow. Alden walked over to the pad and waited for Eric to stand next to him. A puff of smoke surrounded them and when it cleared they were gone. Jeremy ushered Holly and Leon onto the pad. Before they could object they were engulfed in smoke and were gone.

He looked between Edgar and Isha. He wanted to talk in private, but there wasn't time for that. He glanced at the operator, who quickly put on his headphones.


"Edgar, we have a few minutes before the lines clear and it's safe to teleport. I need to clear the air about what happened."




Josiah sat on the bed in the room that had been provided for him. It was barren and windowless. Such was the fruits of his situation. Besides, if he needed to, he could make his own window. Hopefully Jack was competent enough to do what he was told.

Leon arrived in the teleportation chamber at the other end, he was staring at Alden and Eric. Teleportation gave him the most wicked sense of vertigo. His real eye was having problems adjusting, and his shard-eye was on maximum zoom and focusing incorrectly. He let out a scream of pain, his head felt like it had just been crushed with a baseball bat then put together with crazy glue. His hands slammed onto the sides of his head and he buckled over. His breathing was heavy.

"Alden....WHAT THE FUCK...Did...you...do...to.me......."

Leon collapsed onto the floor for a moment, breathing heavily. He slowly rose reaching into his coat pocket and downing several white pills, probably six or seven. He began calming down after a few moments, after the drugs hit his system. Everything came across in a blur right now, but that would subside.




Edgar's heart began racing, he didn't want to talk to Jeremy, not at all. Isha noticed this and stood in front of Edgar like a guardian of sorts. Prepared to fight for Edgar, to kill this man for him if he so much as asked.

"Clear the air about how you abandoned your brother, pretended you were dead, and to top it all off join the other side! No, I pretty much think the air is cleared on those subjects." Edgar was completely furious. What kind of a jerk does that to family?

"Look Edgar,"

Jeremy paused trying to speak around Isha.

"Edgar, I tried leaving, but I just couldn't do it. I couldn't stand disappointing you. So I made an impulsive decision. It was just so hat I wouldn't have to face you."

Desin sat down in one of the chairs. He didn't bother being careful, if they killed him, everything was going to explode. Or even if the bombs didn't recieve a signal from his body. If they pulled anything, they would all be dead.

"Very well, he had better be quick. He has half on hour left until I blow this place, and every other place too for that matter."

The moment the group arrived in the Marinae base, a crowd formed around them, and Alden began barking orders.

"Okay, get these two a room, and get this guy some medical attention. You, wait here until Nalust arrives, and send him to me. You, organize a team to find the bombs. I don't care how you do it. Use satellite, radar, hell, even bomb sniffing hamsters for all I care. Just get them found. I want all outgoing signals to be jammed. But screen them first, we don't want to trip a dead man's switch. I don't want to go in there armed, but I definitely want some body armor. And can someone get me a clean change of clothes!"




Five minutes later Alden stepped into the conference room, wearing a clean Marinae uniform. He sat at the other end of the curved table from Dessin. Eric followed, and sat in the far corner, keeping full surveillance on the meeting.


"So, Brad, it seems that you have me in a very lethal snare."




During the confusion, Leon and Holly were ushered down several hallways and into a room. The door hissed closed behind them before they could respond. The room was compact, while not being cramped. On opposite walls two shelves were carved in for beds. The far wall had a large screen, with a panoramic view of the city, and data feeds scrolling across the glass. A small intercom was located next to the door.

The next thing she knew, Holly was in a small room on the Marinae base. She turned behind her to say something, but the door was already shut. She let out a sigh as she turned back to Leon. She walked over to him and slowly placed an arm around his waist.

"Here...you should lie down for a bit." She said as she gently began nudging him toward one of the beds.

I wonder...Holly's mind began to wander. Since I'm on the base anyway...she thought to herself.

"heh, how fitting" Desin said. "I think that before we start anything, yuo should be aware that these bombs are fitted with many types of traps, including pressure sensors if you even try to move it, and some non electronic ways to spring it if you don't cooperate. You see, as the moment, we have fitted it so that ectricity is the only reason it hasn't detonated. We also have heat detectors in case anything touches it, tuned to the one thousandth degree, and of course, some of our agents are watching over each bomb.

"Now that that's settled, there ware some terms I want discussed. You are of course to surrender all Marinae property to the E'shyum. Doing so will have us pay you a large sum, and give you the property and support to live very comfortably for the rest of your life, along with ten of any of your associates, all of whom would require a personal interview given by me or one of my associates.

"Second, I want all of your shards handed over and registered under the E'shyum papers. Any of your soldiers will be allowed to retire, though it will be highly advised for them to transfer over to our military. We will place them in their own platoons so that prejudice does not spread.

"Thirdly, dinner would be nice, it was a long flight, and I'm somewhat hungry. Any poison or something to knock me out would of course detonate all of the nuclear bombs."

"Now why would I try to poison an old friend," Alden said as several men entered the room, carrying trays of food. "Even I'm not that barbaric."

He took a bite of the steak and chewed a few times.

"Your demands are very extreme. I assume there must have been some change in your organization to spur such a move?"




There was a beep and the door slid open. In the entrance stood a man, growing old in age but barely showing it. His skin had become thinner, and more wrinkled on his bony face, and his slicked black hair was streaked with an abundance of grey. His tight uniform showed off his slimming physique. He looked at Holly, his grey eyes filled with an energy that had led thousands of men into battle. He stared, and a small tear could be seen.

At the sound of the beep, Holly quickly turned toward the door. After taking one good look at the man who entered the room, she froze. Moments passed as the two stared at one another, until finally, she spoke.

"Of all the goddamned bases you could have been stationed at..." She said. She didn't bother to mutter that statement. In fact, she made it clear as day with defiance all over her voice. Her hands were at her sides, balled into fists. She wasn't going to let on that she had considered trying to see if he was even at this base.
