Everflame 2 (FINISHED)

[Rasu]

As Yu-Razul was sucked out he breathed outwords, getting all the air aout of his body. Digging his claws into the metal he began to climb across the surface to the airlock at the top of the ship. Just before he reached it he saw the other ship. That was his way out. He launched himself through space to the shi grabbing onto the landing gear he climbed to an emercency hatch and opened it. He clrawled in and closed it up. He took a deep breath of air and readied his weapons and flame. He had nearly died, but he had to much to live for.

Kitt's reflexes shot him out to the side, causing the would be assailant to land on bare ground. 'What were those?' Kitt asked himself registering only a quick glance before moving against his enemy. Using his robotic limbs to propell himself at full speed, Kitt came in low and hard. Designing his rush so that if he missed his mark his momentum would carry him out of striking distance, but if he hit all of his momentum would transfer to the strike. Causing it to be more devastating than a punch alone would have. A fighting technique that he had learned from fighting larger opponents than himself.

About half an hour into the treatment was when Chronin started to show signs of changing when his eyes started to glow from within. Vuranin reached out while still reclining in her seat, and spread her fingers out just as the same glow came out of Chronin's mouth. She could only guess what would happen as this was where the individual would take on a form entirely their own, as she had seen when Howl and Seeker had become 'denizens of light'. Locks of Chronin's hair started to literally harden and turn into a crystaline luster, and his teeth also took the same look, but not the same color. His power was also manifesting as furniture started to gravitate towards him at an exponential speed.

Vuranin however, stopped the furniture from moving any further by relaxing her 'hold' on Chronin. The only difference being, was that  the furniture was no longer threantening to crush him while he suffered the intense, but initial, pain of having his molecules re-arrange into new positions on his body.

Reggie shifted along the floor, up against the corner of the tiny room. Slowly he managed to sit up against the wall, allowing him to move his arms just a little easier. His fingers gripped his body, and as he tried to move about, he could feel how tight he had been bound. His clothes were gone, to remove almost all wriggle room. His fingers gripped and pulled along his fur, climbing up his body, getting his hands almost to his front before there was no more give. He growled hard and made a series of feral barks as he tried to shift and pull in vain. He looked down, then bit at the restraints, pulling at them with his teeth.



David gave a suspicious little glance at the girl and her toy, then walking with her over to the ship.
"Go take a look." he said, not taking his eyes of her for a second.





As Leo asked the question, Leia moved faster, stepping hard and quick, pulling him along. "He's in my head. That hyena. I can hear his song, and it hurts." She closed her eyes, shaking her head trying to get rid of the noise, walking faster. "I can't stop him, I have to obey, he says I'm a good girl if I obey." They reach the station, and she keeps walking, eyes closed, head shaking, tail puffed.





"Are they in place to catch him?" The serval leaned on his subordinates chair, staring through the viewscreen at the lifeless merc ship. Another ship, bright and covered in wing like modules floated beside it.
"Looks like," said the dingo in the chair. He tapped on his ear, activating comms. "Detonate when ready." There was a pause, the cat getting more and more excited, leaning further forward. Then, the blast. Flames shot out and disappeared in space, and along with it, debris and air blasted towards the second ship.
"Did they get him?"
"I don't think so." The dingo squinted at the screen. "Nope, he's clinging to the hull." The serval stood a little straighter, and tilted his head.
"How long can he survive in space? Two minutes?"
"Yeah that's the average." They watched as the dragon crawled onto the top of the ship. "I bet you ten slips that he misses," the dingo said, leaning back in his chair.
"Pffft," the cat rolled his eyes. "If you saw his record, you would not be making that bet. But sure, I'll have your money." They shook hands, and the dingo pressed a finger into his ear again.
"Security teams, he's coming to us, get to the hatches." They both watched as the dragon prepped himself. The serval practically bouncing with excitement.
"Oh... oh... he's jumping!" The cat almost jumped with him, as they watched the dragon soar through space.
"Miss, miss, miss, miss,"
"Catch, catch, catch, YES!" The cat cheered and punched the air, while the dingo groaned, hanging his head as he reached into his pocket, and pulled out the his wallet, filled with local cash, and handing it over. The cat grinned as he pinched some notes. "I love taking your money."
"Well then we should celebrate your win by buying me a meal." The dingo still had his head down low, but looked up with a sly smile, making the serval whack him in the shoulder.


The hatch closed with a hiss behind Yu-Razul, as he climbed up and faced the only door. There was a shot, muted, and high pitched. Taser rounds shot out at his back.





The opponent pressed against the, shooting off four more models before launching himself away, planting some more on the wall. As the punch came flying in, he pressed himself back against the wall, took aim with his arms, and an emitter curled out of the forearm, letting loose kinetic waves. More and more, slowing Kitt down. He pointed an arm at the ground, aimed the kinetic blaster, and launched himself high over Kitt. He fired off more modules, putting some on each surface of the room.

[KittKat chunky~]

Annie stood beside the security officer, a gruff tiger who leant against the computer monitor on which was a grainy image of Reggie pulling at his restraints. He raised an eyebrow, tapping the screen "You know him then Yantova?"

Annie nodded, watching the image as it blurred slightly, before regaining focus. The officer sighed, a rumbling growl of a sound as he hit the screen off button "The names Rex Grawn... Head of security here at bay 35..." He paused, pointing to the now blank monitor "And your boyfriend has just broken code 362 of the Mechanicus Decree..."

Annie frowned, crossing her arms defensively "He's not my... boyfriend, sir... And he isnt even part of the Mechanicus, ask him yourself... or check the databases. He's never set foot on this ship before..." Officer Grawn growled again, thumping the monitor case with a clenched fist "Ignorance is no excuse Yantova! You know as well as I, that as soon as you enter Mechanicus air-space, you abide by Mechanicus laws!" He unclenched his fist, glaring at the now cracked screen. A security personnel carried the now broken equipment away, tch-ing under his breath as he did so.

Annie sighed, as the office door closed again "Sir... His friend died today, maybe you could let up on him... for me, just this once?" She set down a thin metal card onto the office desk, on it was printed a large 2000, along with the Mechanicus corporate logo. Officer Grawn looked down at the credits, watching as Annie kept them hidden under one paw, and sighed in return. He walked over to the other side of the office, and twisted the security camera there around so it faced the wall... He walked back, pocketing the money "Mechanicus help me Yantova... You are the mother of all loose cannons..."








Tess bounded up to David's ship, nocking deftly on one of the hull panels. She muttered under her breath as she worked, pulling out a magno-spanner "Should be a mark 2 set-up hull... So we just get this here... And here..." After a moment of work, the entire hull panel fell away on a large hinge that was concealed on the inside of the ship. It was lined with yellow and black striped tape, and a thick layer of grime and dust.

Tess clambered in, regardless of the dripping oil, leaving RUST-E to wait outside beside David. The droid whirred, cocking his head slightly to get a better view of him. He whistled, followed by a sharp beep, before turning back to the open service hatch. The dark silhouette of Tess could be seen inside, as she fumbled about "Rusty! Light please..." The droid whistled a short reply, a bright halogen-light illuminating the inside of the ship...

Yuranin released her hold when his transformation finished, and took a moment to behold her son's "true form". His clothes had become part of his body, while fragments of wood, concrete, and pottery orbited about. The glow of his eyes had turned crimson and were now smoldering. His clothes had also been infused with the same material that allows his mother to survive a crash at the speed of light. But, this was entirely lost on him as he was angry from the pain of the change. But as the pain went away, the crystal hair cracked open like a candy coating to let his literally radiant mane fall down along his face that had now taken a more feral countenance. His scales was of the same material as his mother, but his coat was made of even stronger material that had grown spikes on the shoulder and elbows. His gun, that he surprisingly had on him ever since he left the house, had looked brand-new and was probably much more powerful than it had ever been or could be. Yet he quickly lost consiousness as the change not only pained him but took out all the energy he originaly ment to use on Tabby. So, he took a few steps and his mother got up just in time to catch him as he fell on her, unkowning of her soft smile when she saw him change back to his 'normal form'.

It would almost be worth it to delay the 'due process' if this is what my son could become when he comes home. she mused before laying him down on the couch, and pulling her recliner over to watch him and starting to forget that her son is no longer a child since he slept so soundly.

Leo had to plant his feet to stop her from over shooting the station door. Holding her to him "Wait, the same biohazard of Hyena?! This song... What does it sound like? Could you hum it out? That's if it's to much to ask for..."

[Entaru]

Nero tapped the side of his nose.  "Now, now...that would be telling.  I've said too much already.  If you'll excuse me, I've been awake since I came into this dimension."  Closing his eyes, he seemed to drift into sleep.

Meanwhile, Nero slipped himself fully into Leia's mind.  ....InquisitivE LittlE InsecT, Isn'T HE....TheN AgaiN HE IS A ScientisT....VerY WelL....HE WantS TO HeaR MY SonG....TheN We'lL ShoW HiM...  The melody slipped out of Leia's mouth...but it wasn't her voice.  The song shattered the glass around them and seemed to claw at the metal of the Sphere.  Leo could feel the music pulling at every part of his body as if his body were trying to rend itself apart, piece by piece.  Leia's eyes turned black as the song played itself through.  Leia/Nero turned their head to Leo, still humming.  "DO NoT SeeK ThingS YoU DO NoT UnderstanD, CockroacH....TheY OfteN EnD BadlY FoR ThE SeekeR....YoU ArE FortunatE ThaT YoU ShoulD HeaR ThE SonG OF ThE VoiD OutsidE OF ItS TheateR...." 

As quickly as it came, the song passed.  Leia's eyes reverted back to their true color, leaving her worse off than before.

Leia was back in full control....for now.

Reggie bit, chewed and gnawed, pulling at the restraints, stopping to pant for half a minute, before chewing and struggling again.


David leaned and peered through the ship, watching her clamber through in darkness, then watching her lit up by her robot friend.
"Hey, kid, don't go breaking anything okay. You'll have to pay for it... and don't steal anything." He moved his head inside the ship, keeping an eye on her as she worked, with her tail swishing about among the machinery. "And don't get your fur everywhere!"





Leia stumbled, falling against Leo, grabbing him to hold onto as her legs lost her strength, and she burst out into wailing tears.

[tangletail]

Listening to the song, his tail imediatly straightened out fluffing in fear as he heard the song, his eyes widen as he saw the glass breaking along with the metal warping. He heard a loud ring comeing from his ear followed by a painful popping noise signaling his right eardrum blew, followed by a stream of blood trecking from it, dyeing the hair that it touched to a crimson tone. To scared to cover his ear by instinct, or to even move. He could only think "What... the... hell" through the whole ordeal.
Leo had to force himself to move to catch her as she fell on him, forceing himself to calm down but to no avail. He couldn't say anything after that.

[Rasu]

Yu-Razul fell to the ground and lost consciousness. His body convulsed as the electricity began to fry him slightly. His mind became addled and his memories went dark.

He awoke several hours later, with no memory of where he was or who he was. Everything felt disconnected and distant, his body felt like someone elses. Yu-Razul walked to the cell door and looked out the small slit to see several gaurds and a small squad walking towards his cell. He ran to the far end trying to find a place to hide, but the room was almost entirly empty. He turned to await those who'd captured him.

[KittKat chunky~]

The door to Reggie's cell slid open, and a single guard walked in, a young lynx. He cleared his throat, glancing up at the corner where he knew the fish-eye camera was located "Officer Grawn has instigated your release, on behalf of his own generosity. He would like to ask that you refrain from damaging Mechanicus property once released..."
The lynx stepped forward,stopping mid-step "Oh... and he would like you to know that it only due to a friends own generosity, that you are being released without trial... He said you would know what that means..."

From behind the young guard, Annie stepped into the cell as well. She looked down at Reggie, before looking away hurriedly. Her tail swished behind her, as the young lynx walked uncertainly over to unbind the large fox.






Tess looked up at David, a screwdriver in her mouth and two ends of wire in each paw "Wha' 'goo 'ean don' b'ake 'nythin?" She spat the screwdriver out,  shaking her fringe out of her eyes as it clattered onto the steel flooring "Look dude, I've fixed more ships that you've 'et hot dinners..."

She twisted the two wires together, picking the screwdriver up against and screwing back on a large steel panel "Plus, your a friend o' miss Yantova... That means no stealin'..." She winked, tail swishing behind her as she crawled slightly further into the ship...

[Asia Kali Yusufzai]

Leia trembled against him, her words turned to whimpers.
"You see?.... I have to..." Then, they both collapsed into a heap, slumped against the wall of the station.




The footsteps of the squad came up to the door, and a panel opened, showing a serval's face, peaking through.
"Yo," he said. "We've arrived at the base, so clean yourself up. We've got some presentable clothes, because you're going to meet the judge today, okay?" He moved away from the panel, and pushed a package through. It flopped onto the floor, crinkling in its cover. The face came back. "You've got ten minutes, and don't try to escape; that won't look good to the judge."





Reggie growled at the lynx, until he spoke. He saw Annie walk in, and soon he was calm, resting against the wall as the guard unbound him. Once free, he stretched out, bending and curling in every position, free from the binding. All throughout, he watched Annie who had turned to face the door. He walked up behind, and brought his muscled arms around her, holding her close.
"Thankyou," he murmured. "Now could you get me some clothes?"



David folded his arms, grumbling, and giving sidewards glances at the little droid.
"Well I hope you know what you're doing in there." His tongue flicked out, tasting the air as people milled around their own ships in the big hangar. "Do you think you can fix it?"

[Chrono Blackwyng]

The next day on Capital Sphere...


Chronin woke up feeling like he just went to bed with Tabby, however he achieved the opposite feeling when he made his first step towards his first face-plant of the day. He started to regain his senses just in time to hear his mother laughing and hopefully not pointing. She had only came over to wake him up and get him to breakfast, but she managed to walk in just in time to see her son get up and fall down in one comedically fluid motion. He started to regain control of his arms, and made full advantage of her self-distraction by yanking her left foot out and seeing her fall on her back with a scream of her own.

"I thought my mother would be more concerned at my sudden fall than laugh!!"

"Yes, I'm aboslutely cruel for laughing at you when you face-plant your first step out of bed!!" Chronin pointed an accusing talon at her while his face was still on the ground.

"Aha, so you admit it!!"

"I also admit that, the only thing I regret is not having your father's camera to show your Tabitha the kind of man she likes!!" She takes a few calming breaths in an attempt to stop laughing.

"Oh~, that was a good start to the day." she mumbled before getting Chronin up and over to the dinner table for breakfast since he currently could not move...

[Rasu]

Yu-Razul looked dazed, a judge? He went to the package and opened it, within was a set of black, gold, and blue slacks and shirt customized for dragons. He put them on and found them comfortable. Indeed it made him look nice but they were probably only for this one occasion. He looked down trying to remember anything, but nothing came to mind. He truely was lost, and he didnt know what he could do.
