Angel Island Jungle: A Deal With Chaos?!

[candescence]

In the virtual simulation in Brevon's ship, the warlord was going over data, designing improvements to his technology, and sending them along to his warship for implementation and construction. For this kind of work, he did not trust anyone but himself.

@syntax@
Then, Syntax appeared in the simulation, speaking with a robotic but feminine voice, "Sir. The data you requested has successfully returned. The spy units have evaded detection, but have been unable to approach the space colony. As well, the troops you sent to recover the Sol Emerald from the volcano have successfully returned with minimal casualties."

@brevon@
"Ah, excellent. I have eyes everywhere on the planet, and everyone else is none the wiser. The colony is a problem, though, I will need a solution to find out what's going on there, but that will come later. And even better, my bargaining chip has arrived," Brevon smirked, as he began to bring up the data now. "Now, let's see what they found out on the field..." There was a pause, as he brought up what happened to Bunnie. It didn't take long to figure out what happened. "A machine that can transform organic beings into machines. He actually made it work, if at least partially. I'm impressed. If we can get our hands on that machine, or at least figure out its inner workings and reverse-engineer them, this would be extremely useful."

@syntax@
"Speaking of which, Sir, there is also data on the purpose of the orbital colony hacked from GUN's databases."

@brevon@
"Is that so..." He examined that next set of data, taken from the ARK's databases. "The ARK, designed by Dr. Gerald Robotnik, eh...? Of course, now, Eggman is re-purposing it. It'll inevitably be a problem, but one I can deal with later."

@syntax@
"Should I make arrangements for sabotage?"

@brevon@
"No, the doctor is confident and complacent. The last thing we need is to make him paranoid, and for his personal attack hedgehog to come after me. I want to stay well out of his way if I can help it until matters have been settled here," Brevon replied. "As for the DNA you've recovered..."

Several screens showed up, showing the DNA profiles of dozens of people, especially anyone considered a potential threat. DNA was not difficult to recover, especially when it came to mammals with a lot of fur. If you could get anything from them that had it, such as a hair, that was usually enough. "Very fascinating. You know, since we still haven't broken Serpentine out yet, from what we're aware, I've been thinking about creating a new second-in-command. Someone who can keep up with all of these individuals. Syntax, I want a review of every possible and viable DNA combination from these individuals. I want the perfect soldier that I can clone without complications, if possible. Perhaps a little cliche, but it works."

@synatx@
"Of course, Sir."

@brevon@
"Well, then... I think I'm done with this for now. Time to get on with the current operation."

He then disengaged the VR system, to find the Sol Emerald he requested in front of him. He could see that the area around his ship had been heavily fortified and turned into a temporary base/encampment, with several shield layers and physical fortifications.

He smirked, as he took it. "Now, we wait for the God of Destruction to arrive."

[Alien-Child]

"Chao, chao, chao, chao!" A swarm of dark chao flew in the air. They feel an emerald's presence, but looking into the sky, how the sun is setting, they quivvered.

[candescence]

@brevon@
The impending darkness that would come after sunset was no concern for Brevon. He was casually checking his affairs while he waited for the sensors to pick up the group of Sol Emeralds that Chaos would inevitably be holding. Anything was not his concern, unless it was some threat attempting to attack his encampment, which would prove difficult due to the barriers. I will wait as long as I have to...

[Alien-Child]

One Dark Chao tapped to the others downward, detecting an emerald, but the other pointed elsewhere to the ground, dark mist gurgled up from the earth. Terror filled the swarm and they all fluttered off.

[candescence]

@brevon@
He stopped when he noticed the dark mist gathering outside the barriers, and simply watched with curiosity. "Interesting. It seems something else has been drawn here."

[Alien-Child]

Not drawn, more like they've been here all this time asleep and only now woken up. From the earth, dark glowing monster emerged.

[candescence]

@brevon@
"Interesting. Open fire, capture any if you can. I want samples for analysis, at least."

His soldiers assembled at the fortifications, opening fire on the dark monsters.

[Alien-Child]

A few of the rexes that were hit disintegrated, those that survived charged into the armies, chomping on them with their big jaws.

[candescence]

Well, the ones in front let themselves be snacked on, their cores fleeing the bodies, as the rest began to back away and fire at the horde, attempting to use stun blasters instead, noting the disintegration.

@brevon@
"These things are very fragile," he smirked, getting out of his ship, wanting to get a better look.

[Alien-Child]

The little ones were going down in a few shots, the big however took much damage when the rexes weren't shielding her. For every one that were destroyed, the Big Mother was able to replace it with two more from her body.

[candescence]

The robots focused their fire on the Big Mother, trying to disable her entirely.

@brevon@
The warlord almost casually approached the battle, observing, the Sol Emerald gripped with almost vice-like force in his hand.

[Alien-Child]

Big Mother was resilient, she was still surviving, able to give birth to more Rexes, many of which ran to the alien leader.

[candescence]

@brevon@
He smirked, drawing his dagger and expertly slicing the dogs apart, as he advanced. He glanced at the emerald, "time to see what you can do..."

Tapping into the emerald's power was almost trivial, his augmentations had been modified for that purpose. He shot forward with incredible speed, slicing at the mother's belly.

[Alien-Child]

This time however Big Mother was pierced, and she dissolved away, leaving nothing behind.
As did her children when the peons managed to disintegrate them.

[candescence]

@brevon@
"... That was... Almost disappointing," Brevon said, walking back to his ship. "Maintain a lookout, and keep sensors on alert. I want to know if ANYTHING appears past the barriers, including more of those things."

[YolkaEd]

"Froggy?" And cue a sudden voice that clearly wasn't there a moment ago...

@big@

...as this big cat was now wandering around the camp, rubbing his head a little. "Aaaaw... where'd you go, buddy?" Clearly not noticing the previous shadow creatures and the obvious armada, either.

[candescence]

The soldiers were... Bewildered.

@brevon@
"Wait a minute, how did this fool get past the...?"

He looked at the barriers. Multiple energy dome barriers, one-way? Yep, still active. He looked back at the big cat, and then promptly checked the sensors for any other life signs he inexplicably missed...

[YolkaEd]

No signs of life... but outside the barriers seemed to be signals for a Sol Emerald, moving very erratically.

@big@

And he just looked around. "Where'd he go...?"

[candescence]

@brevon@
"Fetch the Sol Emerald. Immediately."

The soldiers saluted, and ran off to find the source of the signal and bring it back.

[YolkaEd]

@big@

He glanced over at the voice, giving the overlord a casual wave. "Excuse me, mister; did you see my friend around here?"
