Salliesue: I-I think so
Meldrek: oh my, I'm so happy to hear you !
Salliesue: s-she was killing him...
Nutmeg: *Tries to smile* Do you know who "She" is?
Salliesue: she should have just killed me...

Markonen: *looks around*
Markonen: Am near Mongol place.
Salliesue: *sniffles* are you ok?
Dagget: where is everyone!!
Dagget: I just got in
Koreteve: Tir, it looks like.
Nutmeg: We're on our way to see you there.
Nutmeg: Are you still at the shop in the middle of town?
Nulion: We're near Truth tower...should be back home soon.
Meldrek: I'm next to the mongol.

[Tir]
Nulion: Thank god I'm glad to see you. And her.
Dagget: is Salliesue safe?
Markonen: I did.
Nulion: She's safe, headed home..
Dagget: good
Markonen: I.. I dont feel right.
Dagget: shades may have done something to you
Markonen: She bit me..
Nulion: ....BIT you?
Markonen: The ugly bitch bit me.
Dagget: well, well have doctors look at you
Markonen: I ... I dont feel well.
Nulion: looks over to Dagget
Nulion: First thing's first, let's get you home.
Dagget: reclaim normally removes poisons
Markonen: Home sounds nice now.
Hotagent: ahh flying sideways
Nulion: There she is..*smiles softly*
Salliesue: hugs markonen tightly
Nulion: puts away his rifle, sighing, relieved
Dagget: she's a shade but she's home and ok
Markonen: hugs Sallie tightly.
Nutmeg: feels her anger vanish
Nulion: smiles..
Salliesue: I saw her bite you...
Salliesue: I was so scared
Salliesue: cries
Dagget: where did they have her?
Markonen: In a base on Nascense.
Markonen: I ..
Dagget: did they hurt you Salliesue?
Markonen: rubs his head.
Nulion: looks around, still a bit tense...but calming down
Markonen: It was near Jobes academy.
Salliesue: looks at dagget with tears spilling out
Nulion: Near Jobe's Academy...and they never detected it? *sigh*
Nulion: looks down at Salliesue
Salliesue: she was....*sobs* beating me....
Dagget: what did they want from you?
Markonen: I am sorry for leaving as I did.. Sallie. Her screamss.. I I had to go.
Nutmeg: I understand Markonen. I couldn't take it very well, either.
Salliesue: I shamed her...she...she wanted me...
Nulion: Markonen, it's okay....I'm just glad you found her..
Salliesue: sobs
Nutmeg: comforts Salliesue
Markonen: checks himself over and frowns.
Nulion: kneels down beside Salliesue, rubbing her shoulder a bit
Markonen: T.. Oh gods.
Dagget: what?
Salliesue: she...bit him...she stared to....
Salliesue: snuggles into markonen
Markonen: I .. . .. I cant remember how to use my weapons...
Nulion: ....33 years of training, and you can't remember??
Dagget: you may being affected by the shade silava
Markonen: removes his helmet and looks at it.
Nulion: ....Markonen...you're beginning to freak me out here...
Markonen: She .. Somehow she drained me.

[Nrpb]
Nutmeg: is there a doctor in the house?
Oriitas: I'm sort of the antithesis of a doctor.
Nutmeg: Gee I wouldn't have guessed that.
Oriitas: Did someone poison yon fair lady?
Markonen: *growls*
Dagget: no, the queen shade bit Markonen
Oriitas: Did I hear right that she was the mother of Salliesue?
Oriitas: This comm channel is awfly silent. Does everyone hate me that much?
Koreteve: That is beside the point.

[Tir]
Dagget: you should get it back
Dagget: with rest
Nutmeg: There is something that helped Salliesue remember a little. Would you like to try and see if it helps you too, James?
Salliesue: shakes her head
Dagget: I think we need to give him a bit of time
Markonen: No.. I mean I feel weaker. I cannot even use the armour I am wearing now.
Salliesue: i DON'T want to remember that..or her...
Nutmeg: Smiles
Nutmeg: Ok, Salliesue, nobody will make you remember anything you don't want to.
Nulion: looks awful worried, at Markonen...
Salliesue: looks down in pure hatred of what she is
Markonen: sags tired and looking older.
Dagget: he might turn into a shade also...but it seems to be a faster transformation
Meldrek: Hi...
Nutmeg: Hello, Meldrek
Nulion: Salliesue....it...it's okay, sweetie. You're here...and we're all here for you still...Doesn't matter what you are...
Salliesue: i am...what i now hate...
Markonen: No.. I think .. I think that she simply drained me in an attempt to save herself....
Salliesue: looks at Nulion
Dagget: then you need rest James
Markonen: looks down.
Nutmeg: What is that, Sweetheart?
Salliesue: one of them...
Markonen: Sallie. *never* say that.
Nutmeg: No, Sallie, you are NOT one of them.
Nutmeg: looks at Salliesue
Dagget: you are not what they are Salliesue
Nutmeg: You are a sweet little girl. And no part of you is mean or horrible.
Dagget: just as many shades here are not like them
Markonen: I knew what you had become and still I payed much to save you. I will not have you saying you were not worth it.
Nulion: Because you were worth every ounce of effort...
Salliesue: snuggles into markonen
Dagget: we need to get her a new teddy bear
Markonen: I.. I have.. I have her leet doll.
Salliesue: I still have it...
Salliesue: but i need to sew him...
Dagget: yes, she has that now, but the teddy seems to have been lost
Nutmeg: smiles
Nulion: looks down at the leet doll for a moment, smiling
Dagget: balloons
Nutmeg: hands Salliesue a balloon
Salliesue: she .... she found a chip inside it and ripped off the head
Dagget: that may have helped trace her
Meldrek: looks sad.
Nulion: Was that your chip, Markonen..? *smiles a little*
Dagget: or perhaps omni chip
Markonen: I knew nothing of a chip.
Dagget: but if it helped us find her
Markonen: frowns.
Nulion: 's smile fades quickly
Nutmeg: scowls a little
Markonen: Honey? Do you know anything about this chip?
Salliesue: shakes her head
Dagget: someone was tracking her
Dagget: here in Tir
Nutmeg: Is it still near Her?
Salliesue: I--I can't remember my ... parents...
Salliesue: starts to cry again
Dagget: we may never know who put the chip in that bear
Markonen: rubs her small shoulder.
Dagget: we'll get you a new one, free of chips
Markonen: Its ok Sallie. Your back. Thats all I care about..
Nutmeg: agrees with Markonen
Dagget: both of you need medical attention and rest
Meldrek: yes indeed
Markonen: And that bitch shall bother you no more... I made sure of that atleast..
Nulion: smiles
Meldrek: hmm
Nutmeg: remembers Salliesue's stories about her parents.
Nutmeg: Can someone get some pasta for Salliesue? Or perhaps a pizza?
Dagget: not sure if that is sold in Tir?
Nutmeg: smiles
Markonen: What.... Wha?
Markonen: looks around wild eyed

[Markonen collapses, dead]

Salliesue: screams at the top of her lungs
Nutmeg: Oh No!
Koreteve: What the?
Salliesue: SHE HERE!! AND LAUGHING
Dagget: team her
Salliesue: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Nutmeg: James!
Dagget: need high perception
Salliesue: starts to hyperventilate
Dagget: someone Sb percep
Meldrek: don't worry Sallie.
Nutmeg: tries not to sob, and holds Sallie's hand
Salliesue: starts to shake
Meldrek: he should be at the mongol reclaim...
Koreteve: loads his Yalmaha
Koreteve: I'll check
Meldrek: calm down sweety, calm down.
Nutmeg: We'll keep you sa... safe.
Nulion: equips his rifle..
Salliesue: did you hear her laughing?
Nutmeg: No, I didn't hear her.
Nulion: We....didn't hear it...
Meldrek: no
Nulion: stays near Salliesue, looking all around
Salliesue: sobs
Nulion: Someone...go check the reclaim...Quick!
Nulion: It's south of Fair Trade, see if he's there..
Meldrek: Koreteve went there
Dagget: he could be at any reclaim
Nulion: He did? I didn't even notice...*sighs a bit*
Meldrek: so ?
Koreteve: He isnt at the reclaim...what happened?
Nulion: Well, that was the reclaim I found him at just earlier.
Dagget: there are many reclaims he might be at
Dagget: his comm link is up
Koreteve: gets out of the yalmaha.
Salliesue: starts to tremble
Nutmeg: puts her arm around Salliesue
Nulion: It...it's okay sweetie, we're here...
Dagget: lets get her to her backyard
Nutmeg: Yes. Sallie, let's get you home.
Nulion: Yes....it...isn't safe out here..
Nulion: looks behind him every now and then...
Dagget: that shade may have been setting his body up for a perma kill
Nutmeg: Shhhh.. Not in front of Sallie
Koreteve: nudges Dagget.

[Backyard in Tir]
Dagget: this is a bit safer
Salliesue: tries to smile
Dagget: we have Markonen's com signal, so he must be somewhere
Koreteve: Can somebody trace it?
Dagget: I will scout the other reclaims
Nulion: rests a hand on Salliesue's shoulder, rubbing a bit
Nutmeg: sits down
Dagget: nothing in the city, I checked every reclaim
Koreteve: Maybe he changed it?
Dagget: he may have reclaimed elsewhere
Dagget: it happens
Meldrek: what does she say Salliesue ?
Salliesue: she says "be glad i still feel something for you...or i would keep him"
Nulion: shivers a little..
Dagget: hmph
Salliesue: sobs deeply in her hands
Meldrek: oh my...
Nutmeg: sobs a little
Nulion: sits down slowly, right beside Salliesue, and gives her a little hug
Meldrek: do you know where she is Sallie ?
Salliesue: shakes violenly as she hears the laughter finally die away
Dagget: I guess we still have to deal with this queen
Meldrek: I just can't tolerate this anymore.... that's enough
Nutmeg: Sallie? Do youknow what that means? Maybe it means that she didnt' keep him, and he'll be ok?
Dagget: we just have to wait a bit and see
Koreteve: Sallie, would you like something to eat, to calm your nerves?
Salliesue: nods
Nulion: hugs Salliesue close
Tyma: Sarah!
Salliesue: they didn't feed me...they wanted me to drink some funny red stuff...
Koreteve: hands Sallie some chocolate cake
Tyma: hugs Salliesue
Nulion: ...Red stuff?
Meldrek: cmon, go get her some food.
Koreteve: smiles and takes off his helmet

[Nrpb]
Nutmeg: Markonen, Can you read this?
Dagget: Markonen, can you communicate?
Markonen: What the hell happened?! I heard laughing then blackness
Dagget: you died
Nutmeg: Sallie heard the laughing too
Dagget: again
Dagget: where are you?
Markonen: I thought I killed that bitch!
Dagget: apparently not
Dagget: and she told Salliesue that she would let you go
Nulion: *looks down at the comm* Good to hear from you, Markonen...

[Tir backyard]
Meldrek: Markonen !!
Dagget: how do you feel?
Salliesue: gobbles down the cake
Tyma: Hello Sergeant
Markonen: Like I got sat on by a momma bronto.
Nulion: looks up at Markonen
Nutmeg: smiles at Markonen
Dagget: you are different somehow
Nutmeg: gives Markonen a hug
Salliesue: wipes the the chocolate from her face
Markonen: smiles and returns it..
Koreteve: smiles
Nutmeg: It's really good to see you, James. We were very worried all over again.
Salliesue: tries to talk with a mouth full of cake
Meldrek: we really have to end this ... once and for all...
Markonen: frowns and looks down.
Markonen: I.. I thought I had.
Markonen: I failed.. again.
Nutmeg: No, James
Nutmeg: looks at Salliesue
Dagget: you got Salliesue back
Salliesue: looks up at markonen
Meldrek: you didn't fail, you brought Sallie back.
Nutmeg: You were wonderful. You got her back.
Salliesue: ...no...
Tyma: nods
Dagget: looks at Salliesue
Markonen: sighs and looks at Sallie.
Nutmeg: James.. the place where the queen bit you..Does it hurt still?
Salliesue: you are the only father i have now...you did not fail...
Nulion: stands up slowly
Dagget: so now what do we do? The Tempus Coma shades can still reach into Tir, it appers
Meldrek: aww
Markonen: It... It does.. But not quite so badly.
Tyma: Should we...move her?
Markonen: No.
Dagget: they can reach anywhere I suspect
Markonen: They can Dagget.
Markonen: They can also moniter both comms and thoughts.
Tyma: But they -know- she is here
Nutmeg: feels her anger fading
Meldrek: so, the only way to get rid of them is to strike them first.
Salliesue: wraps her little arms around Markonen
Markonen: Now you see why I didnt want it discussed over comms.
Tyma: nods
Markonen: smiles down at Sallie.
Dagget: well, we only need a target
Dagget: and we can deal with it
Markonen: Possibly. But..
Nutmeg: Before that, we may need a method of killing her.
Markonen: looks down.
Meldrek: nods
Nutmeg: If Markonen's way didn't work, maybe something else will.
Meldrek: maybe this shade queen is ... different...
Koreteve: Reclaim sabotage?
Markonen: I .. I gave much to free her...
Meldrek: looks at Markonen
Nulion: Markonen, you did really good I think....you're here, she's here....It's the best news we've had in a long time..
Tyma: But something must be done, we can't lose Sarah again.
Nulion: nods
Markonen: looks around..
Tyma: Hey Chris
Markonen: I .. I cannot face her again..
Chris5242069: hey
Tyma: frowns
Dagget: we can
Meldrek: nods
Nulion: Then we'll go up against her...As much as we can.
Koreteve: I will gladly go face her.
Markonen: You dont understand...
Nulion: looks at Markonen
Nutmeg: listens closely
Markonen: Sallie I will be right back ok honey?
Salliesue: nods
Meldrek: her spirit....
Markonen: Follow Meg, Nulion and Dagget please.
Nulion: Sure...
Markonen: And those who need to know.

[a short distance away]
Markonen: sighs softly.
Markonen: Look at me.
Markonen: Take a good look.
Dagget: you have changed
Nutmeg: You look .... ..older
Markonen: I.. call it a trade.
Dagget: less health
Meldrek: you seem weaker maybe...
Nulion: nods softly
Nulion: A...trade?
Koreteve: You look as if going in there warped you about 10 years...
Markonen: I gave to free her. Then the bitch crossed me.
Markonen: She attacked anyways.
Markonen: So I had to fight.
Nutmeg: What exactly did you give?
Dagget: well, no one else will make any deals with her
Markonen: looks down and sighs deeply.
Markonen: It was that or watch her die.
Meldrek: nods
Markonen: Once she had taken my essence she attacked.
Nulion: ...Essence?
Dagget: we will repay the queen
Nulion: shakes his head a little, looking back for a moment at Salliesue
Markonen: Do you not understand what shades are? You have fought them and do not understand them?
Dagget: we do
Nutmeg: Oh, I think we do..
Nulion: What it is I'm thinking, I don't want to believe.
Markonen: Believe it.
Nutmeg: But, we need to find out how to kill her. If your guns didnt' do the trick, what will?
Markonen: I gave it freely to save Sallie.
Markonen: Then it went bad. It is my life to give so i did so.
Markonen: looks down ashamed.
Nutmeg: pats Markonen on the arm
Markonen: I .. I cannot face her again..
Nutmeg: We all understand that, James.
Nulion: nods softly
Dagget: but you can help us locate them
Nutmeg: How about your memory? Is it comming back yet? Do you remember about weapons?
Markonen: Dagget I located three bases.
Markonen: Sallie was in one loacted near the lord and lady as those spirits are called. I went in and started killing. Then I heard her scream.
Dagget: we only need coordinates, we can do the rest
Nulion: The Lord and Lady...I've heard of them.
Markonen: I fought like mad to reach her.
Markonen: When I got there salli..Sallie was under her heel.
Dagget: shudders
Nulion: shivers, getting a queasy feeling in his stomach thinking about it
Markonen: She looked at me and laughed.
Markonen: shudders slightly.
Markonen: I had no choice. I had to talk.
Dagget: I think she cares nothing for Sallie, it was just to get something from you and she used Sallies as a bargaining chip
Meldrek: You've done a lot Markonen, you even gave your essence to save Salliesue. Now, I think it's time for us to act like you did... this hell must end or Sallie will never be able to live in peace.
Markonen: You are wrong.
Markonen: She did want Sallie.
Markonen: But no more.
Meldrek: really ?
Markonen: You , me.. We have tainted her.
Markonen: Made her more humane.. Than they would have her.
Dagget: good
Nulion: A...and that's why she beat her?
Markonen: Exactly.
Markonen: Beat her? They had intended to destroy her as a failure.
Markonen: growls.
Nulion: shakes his head
Markonen: So I made a deal..
Markonen: The problem is this...
Nutmeg: cries out a little
Koreteve: I am going to check on Sallie
Markonen: I .. I made her stronger than I had realized.
Meldrek: nods
Dagget: we can weaken her...right to the point of death
Markonen: Before I died I stuck a vibrosword through her chest.
Markonen: You tell me how she survived it.
Markonen: looks down sadly.
Dagget: it had to cost her
Meldrek: maybe because your essence saved her...
Nutmeg: shrugs
Nutmeg: Or she has no real heart.
Markonen: As I said.. I failed. In protecting her, destyoring the bitch and in everything I have tried as of late.
Markonen: I am unfit to lead. Therefore I shall not.
Dagget: there was nothing else you could have done or known
Meldrek: shakes his head
Dagget: even in hindsight, what else could anyone have done?
Meldrek: don't say that. you've done so much.
Markonen: Wrong. I allowed personel feelings to deter my thinking. I allowed my love to override my strategy. In that I have failed.
Meldrek: your love saved her... Markonen
Nulion: Emotion isn't a weakness Markonen...without that, you may never have even found her...
Nutmeg: Markonen, I understand that you cannot face her. But, you have not failed everything, you have always done your best, and more than any 10 people would do.
Dagget: I don;t think keeping a detached perspective would have gotten you even this far
Meldrek: that's why Sallie was that strong.
Markonen: I..
Nutmeg: smiles to Markonen
Dagget: but we cannot just sit her and wait for them to make the next move
Dagget: whether we can kill her or not, we can put her on the defensive and disrupt their activities
Markonen: I will do what I can to care for Sallie but I think that it is time for me to let others do the fighting. In this weakened state I would be a hinderance.
Meldrek: nods
Nutmeg: nods in understanding
Markonen: However....
Markonen: My logs show that a certain individual needs a visit from me.
Markonen: And I intend to do so.
Meldrek: this fight is ours now. take care of Salliesue, you deserve some peace.
Meldrek: smiles
Nutmeg: Oh? Who is that, James?
Markonen: I will do so Meldrek. But first I need to speak to an omni, an omni by the name of Oriitas.
Meldrek: grins
Dagget: smiles
Nutmeg: snorts
Nulion: *chuckles* He...really deserves whatever he has coming *grin*
Meldrek: oooh...him.....
Markonen: Him I inted to show the error of his ways.
Meldrek: smiles
Meldrek: hehe
Markonen: I did not go through all of this to see him slander my child.
Nutmeg: James, you should go back to Sallie now, though. She needs you.
Markonen: True.. Please. Not a word of what I have done to Sallie.
Dagget: of course

Dagget: no one knows who shot ross and we are going to start collecting alien weapons to better arm our guards
Markonen: Silverstone doing something nice? Thats a change.

Tyma: takes another Mongol Cheese Burger out of her pack and unwraps it
Salliesue: looks up at Compassion and giggles
Nulion: smiles
Nulion: And we'll be here for you...
Salliesue: nods
Markonen: I have decided that perhaps the council is too large for me at this time.. So...
Dagget: nods
Nutmeg: nods sadly
Tyma: You dont think you should attend at all?
Tyma: blinks
Markonen: I will attend if asked. But my first concern is my daughter. And in keeping with that thought I intend to open an agency to help solve problems for people.
Dagget: good idea
Tyma: nods
Tyma: Yes
Nulion: smiles
Nutmeg: smiles
Nulion: That's a much bigger job than any council meeting...
Markonen: smiles.
Salliesue: giggles
Markonen: Perhaps.
Nulion: An agency though? Well...Maybe if you get it off the ground, we can put in the good word for you, let people know about your services *smile*
Markonen: I intend to start small and see where it takes me.
Markonen: ... us.
Nutmeg: And, if you do have something you wish for on the coucil, maybe we could talk with one of the existing clans to propose it.
Salliesue: giggles
Markonen: I will think about it more before I reach a conclusion.
Nulion: Of course *smile*
Nutmeg: Simon said something that you would find very interesting, James.
Markonen: Oh?
Nutmeg: He said, "Anyone who is a traitor to Omni-tek is a friend of ours". Do you think that means he'll like you?
Tyma: chuckles
Markonen: Perhaps.
Nutmeg: smiles
Markonen: Are there logs of the meeting I may read available?
Nutmeg: I am sure we can scrounge one up.
Koreteve: I can send you one, if Nulion hasnt already.
Nulion: There are, on the Council's gridsite.
Dagget: yes, the logs are posted
Markonen: I shall look them over and see how it went.

[Nrpb]
Oriitas: So...what happened with that Salliesue situation? Or is it still in the wind?
Dagget: *smiles*
Dagget: you have insurance, correct?
Salliesue: I am fine, I'm here with my family, and my daddy
Nutmeg: *Smile*
Oriitas: Well that's good Sallie. I hope they'll come to their senses and join Omni-Tek so Omni-Pol can protect you.

[Tir Backyard]
Markonen: taps his wrist computer.
Nulion: smiles
Markonen: Hmmm.
Tyma: Shhesh
Dagget: Perhaps James has a little errend to run now...
Tyma: smiles
Koreteve: gives Sallie some earmuffs
Nulion: smiles, looking at the Comm
Salliesue: looks up

[Nrpb]
Markonen: Listen and listen well omni. You are living on borrowed time. When. not if. But WHEN I find you we are going to have a most interesting discussion.
Chris5242069 joined the group.
Oriitas: *smirk* Who me?
Markonen: Yes you. You are a disgrace to humanity as a species. One I intend to remove.
Markonen: And I shall enjoy doing so.
Oriitas: Well...okay. See you soon. I'll keep my nanos ready.
Markonen: You wont know where. You wont know when. But I will be there. Watching you. Tracking you.. And I will enjoy it as you die.
Oriitas: You should have never left Omni-Pol. You still got that sadistic streak they love. *laughs*
Markonen: And I intend to let it run its course on you Oriitas.
Markonen: And oh it shall be such fun. You who offered to give my child to omni as an experiment.
Markonen: Pain is going to have a whole new meaning for you and yours.
Oriitas: We'll see. Bring that girl of yours along as well. I'd like to -meet- her.
Nulion: And to think, Oriitas...I never once said a word to him *chuckles*
Oriitas: *chuckles as well* You're a good liar Nulion. Want a job?
Nulion: I have one, thanks. *smirks*
Oriitas: *Ori sees someone walk up behind him and flinches before he realizes it's just some anyomous omni Engineer*
Oriitas: *chuckle*

[Tir backyard]
Nutmeg: James, before you rush off and make us proud. May I have a word in private, please?
Tyma: finishes her second burger
Markonen: So lovely day isnt it Sallie?
Nutmeg: feels the breeze and smiles
Salliesue: nods
Markonen: looks down.
Salliesue: takes a deep breath of the wonderful clean air
Nulion: smiles
Salliesue: looks discusted at the comm
Nutmeg: does too
Markonen: Most odd. I believe the man is a ghost.
Dagget: the databases are not operating correctly just now
Nulion: A ghost? *chuckles* Probably scared...I would be.
Dagget: hard to look up anyone
Markonen: I intend to find out.
Markonen: And pay a visit to excorcise him.
Nutmeg: Isnt' Oriitas the name of a product for adults with incontenance?
Koreteve: It will be soon...
Markonen: laughs
Salliesue: laughs
Tyma: He'll get his...
Tyma: yawns meekly
Dagget: well, you both should get some rest
Salliesue: yawns and nods
Dagget: though James needs to give use a few maps, I think...
Markonen: True. Sallie. Shall I walk you up?
Salliesue: nods
Salliesue: Please
Nutmeg: smiles
Tyma: Good night sweetie.
Nulion: smiles
Nutmeg: Goodnight, Sweetheart
Dagget: Good Night Sally
Salliesue: Good night everyone
Koreteve: So long Markonen, and Sallie.
Nutmeg: I'm so happy to see you are back.
Nulion: You two have a good night...It's SUCH a relief seeing you again Salliesue...and you too, Markonen...
Salliesue: Thank you...for today...
Salliesue: smiles sweetly
Nutmeg: hugs Salliesue gently
Markonen: My thanks to you all. I wish I could have included you all in my plans.
Nulion: We would have gotten in your way.
Markonen: But the speed I had to move at hindered my desires.
Nutmeg: Oh, James. You will call if you need anything, or think you notice any changes?
Markonen: Yes. I shall.
Nulion: gives Markonen a small salute, smiling
Nutmeg: nods
Markonen: Actually I am going to walk her up and return.
Dagget: ok
Nutmeg: Very good
Nutmeg: Night, Honey!
Tyma: sighs and smiles
Nulion: God, I'm so glad she's back...
Koreteve: nods
Nutmeg: Me too. My heart is very warmed.
Dagget: but we still have Tempus Coma to deal with
Nulion: True...
Tyma: Is the door still in Tir?
Dagget: and that door in Tir worriens me
Nutmeg: We must speak candidly when Sallie's asleep.
Tyma: O ok
Nulion: And...if they are what we all think they are....How do you kill that?
Dagget: yes
Koreteve: We do have to be a bit more consicous while she is sleeping
Tyma: If only the reciver to that camera Anamelle had installed hadnt gotten destroyed
Dagget: we have found a su****ious door here in Tir, James
Nulion: Oh! Snuck up on me there, Markonen...*chuckles*
Markonen: You may wish to search the lairs near the lord and lady.
Dagget: we will
Markonen: As I discovered they dont set up permanent bases.
Markonen: So they may or may not be there.
Nulion: So they're like terrorist cells?
Markonen: That is what took me so long to find them.
Markonen: Exactly.
Nulion: Must be sleepers. Shut one down, another node starts.
Markonen: nods
Dagget: you find out any other information in your research?
Markonen: Only that her parents are dead.
Markonen: frowns.
Dagget: and that someone was tracking her
Nulion: sighs deeply
Markonen: I saw them in an area near where I found Sallie.
Nutmeg: Markonen, if her parents are dead, why does she think the queen is her mother?
Markonen: They were both former omni.
Markonen: Her parents were not shades.
Markonen: You do the math
Nulion: nods
Dagget: and ther is still the mystery of who experimented on her
Nutmeg: Neither was she....
Markonen: looks at Meg.
Markonen: Yes she was.
Nutmeg: Could her mother have been similarly changed?
Dagget: was she originally a shade?
Tyma: is confused
Markonen: I believe so Dagget.
Dagget: made to look like an adventurer for some years?
Dagget: a disguise?
Markonen: Whoever expiremented on her did that to her.
Nutmeg: thinks about this
Markonen: I dont know why or how it was done or yet by who.
Dagget: perhaps her running her first nanos accelerated the change back
Tyma: Who is head of Omni-Med?
Markonen: I do know however that that the bitch that took her was her mother.
Dagget: frowns
Nulion: So....maybe she was adopted.
Dagget: a curious trail that all is
Markonen: I am beginning to think ath Omni had a hand in this directly.
Dagget: and sinister
Tyma: Me too
Markonen: I will find out. And once I do you shall all know the truth.
Nulion: smiles
Nutmeg: Let us know if we can help with the research.
Dagget: do not hesitate to enlist our aid
Markonen: I wont. Again I thank you all for your aid.
Nulion: We're always close-by...*smile*
Markonen: laughs softly.
Markonen: So true.
Nulion: smiles
