(A few weeks has passed. Nothing significant has happened...yet. March 21st, morning at the twins' safehouse, alongside a visiting [b]annihilator[/b] twins.)
[b]Saffyre:[/b] *reading a flyer for the upcoming SFT vs. VCO on June 30th* You interested in this major combat event, guys?
[b]Sage:[/b] Sis, that's 2 organizations containing the best fighters from 2 different mainlands, coming together to see which one is at the top. That's pretty bad[b]a[/b]ss.
[b]Ainotias:[/b] You don't think they could be doing this to...well, overthrow [b]Saitranovia[/b] in a way?
[b]Saitonia:[/b] Aino, you do got a point. Some war back in 2010 that their king couldn't get over led him to do this.
*Sai starts to experience a vision. From this vision, he's inside the crowd of the newly built coliseum, alongside several of his friends, allies and more familiar faces. He sees what looks like Roman is engaging in combat one of the SFT's top fighters; [b]Sephinon[/b], while the other SFT fighters are spectating from one side, while VCO fighters are on the other side. He looks up to see that same entity, and that same, massive, armored creature whose height is immeasurable, both watching the battle. The vision ends as Sai abruptly snaps back to his senses.*
[b]Saffyre:[/b] *noticing Sai with a confused expression* Are you all right, Sai?
[b]Saitonia:[/b] Yeah...just had another vision. It's that [b]Vaisallon[/b] King Roman...in battle against [b]Sephinon[/b].
[b]Sage:[/b] Anything else?
[b]Saitonia:[/b] *sudden exhale* No. It was me, you all, the others, in this arena, but it's looks [b]Vaisallon[/b]-based. We were watching in on this battle between the 2. I also see this entity who I swear is my future self, and alongside him is that creature that's like light years tall.
[b]Saffyre:[/b] Has to be related to this June 30th event. What I gathered from this vision of yours, why would a ruler want to fight a combatant of an organization?
[b]Ainotias:[/b] Power abuse. If that happens, hopefully that [b]Liomage[/b] try and fight a combatant from the VCO.
[b]Saitonia:[/b] We'll see, Aino, if I don't kill Roman before that happens. Meantime, I want to try and acquire those other [b]Enygma[/b] forms an SIU member told me about.
[b]Sage:[/b] Let's see. We have Standard, Fated, [b]Dragonus[/b]. Sai you have that [b]Exomordia[/b] one while...Aino, do you still have that [b]Arckyve[/b] form?
[b]Ainotias:[/b] *clearly unsure* I guess. I don't know what it's like, I was under [b]Terranova[/b]'s control.
[b]Saitonia:[/b] *getting up from the couch* Let's go ask the others, maybe they could have some insight on these forms as well.

(The 4 have arrived at the group mansion, where surprisingly, everyone else amongst the close allies is there, except [b]Maviko[/b] and [b]Aguiro[/b].)
[b]Alexa:[/b] *searching her wallet* Hey Cat, Kav, look what I've brought in from Earth. *pulls out a 5$ bill and shows the 2*
[b]Kavita:[/b] Oh, dollar bills. I've held one before.
[b]Cathera:[/b] *looking up at Kav* Through a currency exchange kiosk, right?
[b]Kavita:[/b] *stumped by Cat's unexpected question* What?
[b]Cathera:[/b] A currency exchange kiosk, right?
[b]Kavita:[/b] Remember we went on a destination excursion to a Planetary Artifact Gallery back in high school, and they showed us some stuff from America.
[b]Cathera:[/b] Oh. It was [b]Iudora[/b] Gallery here in [b]Venturos[/b], right?
[b]Kavita:[/b] Yeaahhh.
[b]Cathera:[/b] Ohhhh, I really need to stop overthinking about any mischief you get into when I'm not around.
[b]Kavita:[/b] *raspy chuckle* I appreciate your wariness over me, Cat.
[b]Alexa:[/b] "Destination excursion". Very fancy name for a field trip.
*Knock on the door. Sai goes to answer it, revealing [b]Maviko[/b] and [b]Aguiro[/b].
[b]Saitonia:[/b] *with a hint of disinterest* Nice to see you, [b]Maviko[/b]. You have any more insight on these [b]Enygma[/b] forms? I know [b]watchers[/b] are technically [b]Arckyvines[/b], but you, neither do [b]sensitors[/b], have access to [b]Enygma[/b] forms, but you're quite savvy, you might have some expertise.
[b]Maviko:[/b] Thanks, Saitonia. *walks in while [b]Aguiro[/b] follows*
[b]Vandren:[/b] *turns and looks at [b]Maviko[/b] and [b]Aguiro[/b], and yells out* Oh look, the future geek and her lackey.
*As [b]Kaburo[/b] laughs, [b]Aguiro[/b] tries to retort, but nothing comes out, while [b]Maviko[/b] lets out a snicker.*
[b]Maviko:[/b] Let me see...*digging through her jacket pocket*..I do have a reference image of every known [b]Enygma[/b] form and how to activate them.
*As [b]Maviko[/b] pulls out her tablet, she gets some stares from pretty much everyone else in the room excluding Sai, Anna, and [b]Aguiro[/b].*
[b]Maviko:[/b] *raises her shoulders* What? I'm a chrono private investigator. Yes, I made that up. What's wrong with a [b]watcher[/b] wanting to learn about [b]Enygma[/b] forms? Your [b]sensitor[/b] *pointing at Cat* could be doing the same, you're still gonna act like I'm the weird one?
[b]Casaphne:[/b] *as everyone else takes their eyes off [b]Maviko[/b]* Hehe, we're just astonished by your diligence. Show us, we could find some forms that are cosmic level, maybe even omniverse-level forms.
[b]Maviko:[/b] *turning on her tablet* Oh there are.
[b]Saitonia:[/b] Specifically looking for Mage [b]Enygma[/b], the one that SIU member [b]Segoma[/b] told us about.
*The group gathers around [b]Maviko[/b], looking at the list of [b]Enygma[/b] forms she has displayed on her tablet. It doesn't take her long to scroll down as [b]Maviko[/b] finds the Mage [b]Enygma[/b]. The appearance consists of the same holographic mask, armor platings and large claws, but one thing that stands out is a glossy, armored robe and a cloak, exclusive to the mystical form. The form is known for magic and spell-casting abilities, giving it a very high energy capacity.*
[b]Vandren:[/b] Looks sick.
[b]Virol:[/b] Daaaammmn. *imploring* Sai, [b]Maviko[/b], please teach me.
[b]Maviko:[/b] We will, we will.
[b]Saffyre:[/b] What about some other forms on that image?
[b]Maviko:[/b] Here's one.
*She points to a form called Beast/Titan [b]Enygma[/b]. The appearance of this form is a much more bulky and taller, with armor around the entire body, indicating that this form seems to rely on high brute force, but low energy capacity.*
[b]Maviko:[/b] [b]Saitranovians[/b] and [b]Euphyarians[/b] call it Beast [b]Enygma[/b], the rest of the mainlands call it Titan [b]Enygma[/b]. *reading it's description* "A tank-based form. Low energy capacity, but high resistance to damage. Your size is doubled when you activate this form."
[b]Saitonia:[/b] This could've been somewhat useful fighting [b]Terranova[/b].
[b]Maviko:[/b] Yeaahhh, but that "high resistance" most likely excludes a power of his scaling.
[b]Alexa:[/b] Reminds me of those heavy classes in role-playing games.
[b]Aguiro:[/b] In order to get this form, you'd have to slay a [b]Kalsion[/b] Beast and absorb their energy while in a standard [b]Enygma[/b] form. They're pretty much everywhere on this planet, specifically in stormforests.
*Cat shows Alexa an image of this "[b]Kalsion[/b] Beast" on her phone. This causes Alexa to jump back as she yells: "What the hell?!", horrified by it's appearance, and also gathering the attention of everyone else. Cas snickers.*
[b]Alexa:[/b] *reacting to Cas' laugh* Easy for you to laugh when you're a [b]Terranovian[/b] who's probably used to seeing something like this wandering nature. That...*exhale*..that looks like an animal that went extinct millions of years ago fused with a mythological cryptid.
[b]Shiani:[/b] Lexi, it is pretty normal for us.
[b]Alexa:[/b] Well I could imagine what [b]Terranovian[/b] mythological creatures look like; 18-headed, dragon-lion-serpent hybrids with massive claws and can shoot acidic smoke?
[b]Kyokia:[/b] There is a mythological creature like that originating in [b]Spektrovatian[/b] mythos. I think it was the [b]Bazu'dekara[/b]. A 6-headed, anthropomorphic dragon that stood nearly 250 feet tall-
[b]Alexa:[/b] *cutting off Kyo* But what were it's powers?
[b]Kyokia:[/b] Errrmmm...unsure.
[b]Maviko:[/b]....Well mythologies aside, there's [b]Enygma[/b] forms related to kinetic powers, Pyro [b]Enygma[/b], or [b]Solaria Enygma[/b] in [b]Casavatia, Sagavelia[/b] and [b]Spektrovatia[/b].
[b]Shiani:[/b] Yep, we call it [b]Solaria[/b].
[b]Maviko:[/b] *mouths* "Damnit!" *normally* Hydro [b]Enygma[/b], [b]Novioda Enygma[/b], which is basically an [b]Enygma[/b] form involving the use of [b]Terranovian[/b] rock formations. Aero [b]Enygma[/b], Cryo [b]Enygma[/b], [b]Electrovolt Enygma[/b]. Yeah..
[b]Shiani:[/b] I do have ice abilities. Is there a point in acquiring Cryo [b]Enygma[/b]?
[b]Maviko:[/b] With Cryo [b]Enygma[/b], [b]Arckyvines[/b] can create ice forts, ice pathways, a lot of things.
[b]Shiani:[/b] *gazing to her right, suddenly realizes* Whoaaa, I don't think I can create ice forts.
[b]Saitonia:[/b] Alright. Well [b]Maviko[/b], let's find a spot so that I can acquire the Mage [b]Enygma[/b]. *standing up*
[b]Maviko:[/b] There's a temple here in [b]Venturos[/b], several actually. Does it matter?
[b]Saitonia:[/b] Furthest away from any populated areas.
[b]Maviko:[/b] I think I know one.

[b][i]*Continued Below*[/i][/b] ([b]Crisha[/b] and [b]Yaoni[/b], both off duty, and in casual wear, appear at the entrance of the Citadel of Nobleman Hunters. [b]Crisha[/b] looks up and softly sighs, overcome with some mysterious feeling.) [b]Yaoni:[/b] You ok, [b]Crisha[/b]? I know you're..kinda crushing on one of the guys from Unit 32. The sight of him is your aphrodisiac. [b]Crisha:[/b] I'm fine. I don't care much about his broad build or glowing, 12-set abs or perky [b]a[/b]ss. He's just so bold and straightforward. In other words, he's no b[b]i[/b]tch. [b]Yaoni:[/b] *abruptly loud laughter* So you're a personality woman? Such taste. I heard Unit 32 has recently returned from a mission; escorting wounded hunters to a village, warding off [b]Aeliaus[/b] while doing so. You do know we don't need special permission to enter, well at least the areas that aren't used for mission operation. It's a mostly public citadel, so we're given the blue light and just go ahead. One of the Unit 32 members might show up. If it is him, control your sensation. I've seen what your chest does. [b]Crisha:[/b] Ugh! Teasing much?! *As the 2 are about to walk in, a nobleman hunter suddenly comes out, and it's [b]Lancis[/b].* [b]Lancis:[/b] Ohhhh, [b]Saitranovia[/b] Syndicate's [b]Erien Yaoni[/b] and [b]Saitranovia[/b] Investigative Unit's [b]Crisha Garis[/b]. [b]Yaoni:[/b] Hey [b]Lancis[/b]. [b]Lancis:[/b] Both of y'all off? *[b]Yaoni[/b] nodding* Lucky you. *[b]Yaoni[/b] looks at [b]Crisha[/b], trying to see signs of her "excitement". The 2 then proceed to follow [b]Lancis[/b].* [b]Crisha:[/b] *spotting [b]Yaoni[/b] "observing" her, so she whispers* Stop. It's not him. [b]Yaoni:[/b] *whispers back* Figures. He's not very broadly built. *As [b]Lancis[/b] continues to lead the 2 to noblemen-operated sections within the citadel, the activity within it is sensational, from civilians at the mall to hanging around the fountain, an active arcade spot, and many more. Around a minute has passed as [b]Lancis[/b] arrives at the room of Unit 32. He places his right hand over a scanning board etched onto a wall, and access is granted. The door slides open, revealing the rest of the members, and even an all-familiar visitor, [b]Xiora[/b].* [b]Crisha:[/b] *sudden, soft squeal as her body freezes upon the sight of...[b]Kuroda[/b]* [b]Lancis:[/b] Ey team, look who's returned. [b]Tarano:[/b] [b]Yaoni[/b] from [b]Saitranovia[/b] Syndicate and *to [b]Crisha[/b]* you're the daughter of [b]Renus Garis[/b]. [b]Crisha:[/b] *pauses for a few seconds before focusing on what [b]Tarano[/b] said, and turns attention towards him* Oh! Uhhh, you know my father? [b]Tarano:[/b] Had a run-in with him during the pinnacle of the Blackcore Vultures' notoriety. Both our organizations were mutually hunting them. Gotta say, you really grew, you inherit so many features from your father. [b]Triapika:[/b] *leaning up against the door* [b]Crishy[/b], I heard you make a little squeal, what was that? You saw something...or someone? [b]Crisha:[/b] *reticent* I dunno...this citadel is...so...I can't describe. [b]Yaoni:[/b] [b]Crish[/b], we've been here before, barely any noticeable changes. *to Unit 32* We can come in? [b]Tarano:[/b] Right on ahead. We just got back from defending some hunters from an [b]Aeliaus[/b] attack, so it'll be a while before we're scheduled for another mission. *[b]Tarano[/b] lets [b]Crisha[/b] and [b]Yaoni[/b] walk right in, then follows the 2, who are also followed by Tria as the door slides shut. [b]Crisha[/b] hesitantly walks towards [b]Kuroda[/b], who is inspecting his shotgun by a weapons rack.* [b]Crisha:[/b] (My [b]Arckyve[/b], I'm so nervous....) Heyyy, [b]Kuroda[/b]. [b]Kuroda:[/b] *eyes still on his shotgun* Hello [b]Crisha[/b]. SIU let you have some free time? [b]Crisha:[/b] Yep... *[b]Crisha[/b]'s face starts to flush a faint light purple and her chest veins start to emit a blue glow. [b]Kuroda[/b] turns towards her and looks with slight concern.* [b]Kuroda:[/b] You alright there? You seem a bit...turned on? [b]Crisha:[/b] I'm fine. My body just does that so randomly. *As [b]Crisha[/b] awkwardly steps back, [b]Kuroda[/b] shrugs it off and goes back to inspecting his shotgun. Tria leads [b]Yaoni[/b] to a more secluded spot within the room for a private conversation.* [b]Triapika:[/b] *lowly* She's- [b]Yaoni:[/b] *cutting her off in the same tone* I know. It's quite obvious. She was like this the first time. [b]Triapika:[/b] They would make a lovely couple. I'm kinda focused on the age gap, which would open up a weird double standard. I'm only 3 weeks younger than [b]Crisha[/b], but for [b]Kuroda[/b] to possibly see her as a girlfriend but see me as a little sister? Ehhhh.... [b]Yaoni:[/b] Call 1100? *slight chuckle* Kidding. You're both over 20, it's different for many people. Personally for me, no older or younger than 8 years. *[b]Crisha[/b] approaches the 2.* [b]Crisha:[/b] What were you 2 talking about? [b]Triapika:[/b] How you were a little...unstable visiting us the 2nd time. When's your birthday? [b]Crisha:[/b] September 2nd. [b]Triapika:[/b] Yeah. You're older than me by 2 days and 3 weeks. Odd, I'm still mistaken as a teen and you're over here all "mature". *jealously ogling at [b]Crisha[/b]* [b]Irenade:[/b] *leaning over a chair, looking at a screen* Tria, you still have that immature, youthful mentality. [b]Triapika:[/b] *slightly offended gasp* I'm still growing, [b]Irenade[/b]. We all are, right? *[b]Izalles[/b] and [b]Xiora[/b] are sitting on a bed, [b]Xiora[/b] seemingly looking like she saw something horrifying. [b]Izalles[/b] moves a bit closer to check up on her.* [b]Izalles:[/b] You ok, [b]Xiora[/b]? Getting a little paranoid? *[b]Xiora[/b] brushes [b]Izalles[/b]' hand away and moves a closer to the wall. She then summons an electric baton and points it at [b]Izalles[/b], making her back away, and also getting the attention of everyone else. [b]Izalles[/b] takes a potion from a small holder and gives it to [b]Xiora[/b], whom hesitantly takes it and drinks some, getting back to her senses.* [b]Xiora:[/b] *light gasp, then stutters* S-s-sorry, sorry [b]Izalles[/b]. I-*deep sigh* I saw this unknown organization who dons this purple, gray, black, and blue outfits...arrive here from some aircraft with the same...the s-s-same colors. Said they want to establish a "[b]Saitranovian[/b] New World Order". [b]Izalles:[/b] IIIII....have no idea who you're describing. You make out any faces? [b]Xiora:[/b] No...couldn't make any out. *[b]Irenade[/b] sees something on the screen that makes her pause, face filled with major confusion.* [b]Irenade:[/b] Hey teeeaamm, look at this. *As everyone gathers around, what they see on the screen is live footage from Channel Lyon 76. A minor SFT arena in [b]Sakrisen[/b] that has been badly vandalized, with crowd seats ripped off and clustered on top of each other, and blue and light green rubble just laying out all over the stage. Headlined: "Minor SFT arena in [b]Sakrisen[/b] vandalized".* [b]News Reporter:[/b] *live broadcast* Witnesses describe a squad of unknowns in silver, blue, and gold outfits demolishing everything inside and outside the arena. As we see pillars are knocked down onto the combatant stage, even the lofts have all been ransacked. One culprit seems to come up; an all-familiar foreign rival; [b]Vaisallon[/b] Regions. Possibly launching their first attack to enact revenge, sabotaging us in preparation for the upcoming SFT vs. VCO event on June 30th. [b]Triapika:[/b] Don't want to state the obvious, but they're definitely craving that vengeance. [b]Lancis:[/b] Daaammmn. Can't that mainland just take a loss. [b]Kuroda:[/b] *quick chuckle* [b]Lancis[/b], "loss", "failure", "defeat" is not in their vocabulary. [b]Crisha:[/b] *with determination* Oh, me and the SIU are getting to the bottom of this, and counterattacking [b]Vaisallian[/b] forces. [b]Tarano:[/b] *replying to [b]Crisha[/b]* We can team up. Noblemen, SIU, *pointing to [b]Yaoni[/b]* S.S. *[b]Yaoni[/b] nodding in agreement* Let's consult The Monarch. __________________________________________ [b][u]END:[/u][/b] [spoiler][b]Erased....[/b][/spoiler]
