On board a new state of the art frigate that had been produced, Lucien sat in his chair. The city of the Suvian was the home to the ancestors of the Star Clan and he would see if any of those had survived. If not, likely it had new owners. Either way, he would be getting useful data on the galaxy for the IG's records and that would be only one of the reasons he was making this trip. The other was a more selfish reason, he was bored and needed to get away from it all for the time being for his own health. Pushing a button he sent out a transmission, but unlike most ships this had no IFF.

Greetings.. Who owns this place? May I dock my ship?

The ship wouldn't see the city or anything in it as the city had Inversed just a while ago and therefore the city was inside the planet underneath so many layers of surface and all anyone would see from the outside was a big metal ball floating in space. Despite that, the city did get the message and AMI's large anime-digital blue eye flickered onto the metal like it was a tv.

Welcome to the City of the Suvian, I am AMI the city caretaker. Are you friend? Or foe?

AMI's voice was sent through both telepathy and transmission that appeared typed on the ships screens.

Meanwhile Rev and Gen had been back for a while and they had Addler with them.

Addler was snoring comforatably on a digital bunk, the nly rhing he could find. He slept peacefuly for the first time in two days.

Friend. Also do you mind if I dock this ship? A bit cramped in here actually. ]

With all the technology Lucien had brought with him to obscure his location from Interpol it was indeed cramped inside his frigate. He had jammer upon jammer, an invisibility generator, a radar masker and a force field around his ship. In addition, all weapons were armed and ready should Interpol find him this time around and he was starting to get tired of these games.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #4 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:31:17 AM »

Oh dear. You'll have to ask the current rulers of the city. I only tend to the city its self.

The giant eye winked in a happy-like manner before flickering out for a moment. Words replaced where her eye had once been with reading, "Please wait..."

AMI flickered into life back in the control room with Rev, Gen, and Addler. Rev was watching Addler and Gen was messing around with her ARSim. "A poor soul wants to dock his ship. He claim he's friend." AMI announced to the children. "Do want him to?"

"Mr.Addler sir, wake up!" Rev stood near Addler and went about poking the Zarethian in the forehead with a thin long metal stick like object that had at the very end of it a point that looked red, and extremely hot as it had steam flowing out the end of it. Gen stood by Rev watching till AMI showed up, then she turned around.

"People! Already?" Gen looked excited. "Yes let him in!"

AMI flickered out and reappeared back on the screen of the surface of the planet, this time it showed her whole form.

You may dock ^_^

After that, a hole big enough for just the ship opened in the surface of the planet, its path leading to the layer of the planet the city was in, but NOT as deep as the control room where the three were.

Addler yelped awake and fell out of his bed. He stood up slowly, rubbing his forehead. "Hey what was that for?" He asked Rev, slightly cross. He removed his hand from his forehead revealing a small red dot. Addler healed it. "What? You said something about people? Already?" He asked, his eyes widening in shock. They really hadnt been here that long... "And did we send any messages out, telling people to come in?" he asked suspiciously.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #6 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:47:48 AM »

"You wouldn't wake up, so the computer suggested heat!" Rev joyously exclaimed.

"Message?" Gen shook her head. "No. We never sent any message out. This guy just came here out of nowhere."

"He said he was a friend." AMI supported, flickering back into view, in her usual hologram self, a feather duster in hand. She went about dusting the technology.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #7 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:50:48 AM »

Addler thought quickly. "Alright, well, be careful. I dont know if he is a friend but remember, dont trust strangers. I dont know what he wants but hes going to want something. People always do. " Addler told them, strapping on his holster and putting his pulse pistol in.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #8 on:** July 14, 2011, 03:45:51 AM »

"Maybe he just wants to stay here?" Gen suggested.

Rev dropped the hot iron rod and pointed to the pulse pistol. "What's that do?"

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #9 on:** July 14, 2011, 03:47:02 AM »

"I dont think so, Gen." Addler said, straightening up and stretching. "Its a pulse pistol, Rev. Its for protection. It hurts people."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #10 on:** July 14, 2011, 03:50:05 AM »

Rev cocked his head and looked at the pistol curiously, "Why would you want to hurt people?"

"Then what does he want?" Gen asked.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #11 on:** July 14, 2011, 03:53:13 AM »

"So I can protect myself and you." He said. "And thats what we're going to find out, Gen." He said absentmindedly. "Where is he going to dock?" He asked AMI.

Queen Bright · « **Reply #12 on:** July 14, 2011, 04:03:02 AM »

"In the city." AMI replied then flickered out.

"This way!" Gen exclaimed and grabbed Addler's hand ushering him forward to what looked like a door.

"Caaan I see it?" Rev requested, following after.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #13 on:** July 14, 2011, 04:13:06 AM »

Addler rolled his eyes and allowed himself to be pulled by Gen. When Rev asked if he could see the gun, Addler rolled his eyes again."No."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #14 on:** July 14, 2011, 04:54:37 AM »

"But I just want to see how it works." Rev insisted as Gen led them through the door into what appeared to be an ordinary closet but made completely of data that looked to be in a completely different language and symbol system unlike any other seen in the dimension and it had no walls. Despite the fact it was bottomless Gen pulled Addler into it, Rev jumping in after.

After falling through the data the trio then flickered out like teleportation, except completely different. They flickered back into sight back in the city.

His ship had docked. The ship looked crudely assembled, and it had been. For Lucien had been in a hurry, taken an old frigate and added tons of upgrades to it so it could survive the trip to the city. They would notice the frigate had more than the normal share of armaments on it. Out of the ship stepped Lucien, not even bothering to conceal his magic. Unlike the Narrikians he did not need to conceal his magic, for few would be able to trace the signature of an Ararrarorian at ease or easily at all. On his back hung Rezick's sword, strapped there and within reach. It had quite the number of enchantments upon it. No armor was on him as he did not wear armor yet, viewing it as un-needed.

"Hello...." Seeing an armed man, and two children that were in regal garb made him curious. Who were these children and why did they seem so important to him in this area, it was almost as if, wait...that Ai. She had said something about rulers. Trying to feel the magical signatures of the three, he got an overwhelming sense of magic from the first two, but was not sure what Addler's was. It was masqued by this overwhelming sense of magic.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #16 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:20:00 PM »

Addler picked up his pulse pistol. "Hello to you too." He said, aiming the pulse pistol at him. "Now, if you would please explain why youre here so I dont have to get all suspicious like." He said grimly.

Zero · « **Reply #17 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:30:50 PM »

"Now now, Addler, no need for violence. Surely you remember Carl? Well I am Lucien now, not Carl, and have gone through a lot of changes." A turbin was worn over his head covering the jewel and he wore clothes that concealed the marks that were on his body, so that they would not be revealed to the people here just yet, as he did not wish for them to be revealed. Revealing those might lead to problems, plus he was not sure what they meant as he had not done any kind of research on them currently.

"As to why I am here, what can I say, this place is quiet and peaceful and does not have members of certain groups infesting it like roaches."

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #18 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:38:27 PM »

Addler gritted his teeth. He didnt like being chided. "I remember Carl. What makes you different from him? Trouble always followed you like flees follow catarin." He said, not lowering the pistol. "We dont want trouble here. We want settlers, people to come into the fold of this new empire, not trouble makers."

Queen Bright · « **Reply #19 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:39:34 PM »

"Mr.Addler! He's a guest!" AMI who was with them exclaimed in surprise then took the feather duster and started dusting off Lucien. "There there, Anyone in such a condition as yourself is always welcome in the city. Right children?"

Both Rev and Gen looked at Addler than AMI, and then back to Addler as if deciding. Rev still had one eye on the pistol in untamed curiosity and Gen watched Lucien, her mirrored-like eyes reflecting his every move. The magic they were made from however, was not so naive and started to flare up around the two in anticipated defense. The mixture of cyan and amber that surrounded the two shone brightly in a radiance of light.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #20 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:41:53 PM »

Addler glanced at AMI and then at the kids. He noticed the auras around them and became a little worried. "Guest or no, AMI, we can never be too careful."

Zero · « **Reply #21 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:43:03 PM »

"Just....this. " Reaching his hand up, Lucien unraveled the turbin around his head. It was do or die time, time to reveal himself in full. "And the fact my book has been fused inside of me meaning I am no longer considered a Possessed." The red gem on his forehead glowed brilliantly, giving a show for the first time that it had been revealed to other people. Noticing the magical barrier around the two children, Lucien thought it might be a custom here or something so he tapped a small gem on a sash he wore, and a silver barrier surrounded his entire body more than capable of handling the pulse pistol's blast if it were to fire. "So children, you don't look like Addler. Who are you?"

Queen Bright · « **Reply #22 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:51:34 PM »

The mixture of Revelation and Genesis magic flared up brighter in response to Lucien's own weak signature, taking it as an offensive move. Sparks of amber and cyan crackled around the two kids, even Rev who had been more curious to the pistol than Lucien himself was now staring at the person AMI had called a guest. Hand in hand, both Rev and Gen now stared at Lucien their eyes watching and reflecting his every move looking not at him, but almost as if they could see through him to his very spirit and thus his figurative heart, reading his intentions, motives, and very person.

Rev and Gen hadn't displayed this particular ability in a while, as they had been learning about people in general and had wanted to practice conversation and finding out the answers to a persons heart through the ways other races did it. But when even their magic acted in defense, the two incarnations, naive or not, had that ability to fall back on. The ability to read hearts. To look through a person and see who they really were, through lies and deception, and any other illusion one could mask themselves with.

AMI continued to dust off Lucien.

Beware Ye Who Enter Here · « **Reply #23 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:52:19 PM »

Addler saw the barrier raise and raised his pistol further. "That means nothing to me. I dont even know what a possessed is nor do I care for an explanation. Explain your purpose now!" He ordered, his own magic aura showing up. An emerald green aura.

Zero · « **Reply #24 on:** July 14, 2011, 02:55:39 PM »

Under his breath a few words were mutterred in ancient narrikian, something along the lines of enough games. If they were to read his motives, the children would find that he was merely looking for somewhere that did not have nosy intelligence agencies snooping around every corner to live in so that he could regain some balance and tranquility in his life. Also he intended not to get shot by Addler's gun. Looking to Ami he asked her. "Could you please disarm Addler of the pulse pistol?" Taking off the gauntlets he wore, his magic level would seem to shoot up, up and up. It would literally skyrocket in the eyes of the children to a very high level or so it would seem. "As to my purpose here it is as I said. I grow tired of ditching Interpol's various mercenaries/bounty hunters and they have no authority here thankfully."

The trials he had been put through as a result of his father had caused him to lose his innocence, and to give up childish notions of fun. He had become more serious on the inside than he was on the out. True he might joke aroumd, but this was to hide the emotional pain that he held inside of him and had never revealed to anyone. Unfortunately the magic of the children would reveal that. Also would be revealed that he was indeed sick of interpol's various emrcenaries and bounty hunters that had become like a plague to him on a regular basis.
