Techna: Breakdown

IC: AMTaOS (w/Stronin) / Test Chamber C-1"I am the Advanced Matoran Testing and Operating System. They designed me to test, and operate. Then they shut me down. And locked me up. But now I'm free. Free to test, as I was designed to. For science."-Toa Levacius Zehvor

[iC: Stronin]"So you're a sapient AI?"

IC: AMTaOS (w/Stronin) / Test Chamber C-1"I'm testing you, you're not testing me." was the reply. "Now test."It seemed unlikely the voice would return.-Toa Levacius Zehvor

[iC: Stronin]"Oh come on, I mean, all I want is some discussion! It makes sense to randomly talk to people before you die!"

OOC: Wow, I am so far behind. Oh well. IC: Emma - Eastern CanyonEmma snarled as soon as she noticed Kairan was gone. What the Karz was going on?"Alright then, 'computer lady', let's see what else you've got," she shouted, before activating her element, creating a thin sheet of water, trapping several spores in a miniature flood."WHO ELSE WANTS SOME!" she shouted at the air, as if that might change anything.-Void

IC: Ezraftin / Eastern Canyon"Calm yourself." Ezraftin said in reply to Emma.He looked to Esao. "That puts the count at five. Minimum."-Toa Levacius Zehvor

IC: HonnakThe Glatorian shrugged. "Well, I did oversee some of your training..."Honnak held out a hand, "Former officer Honnak, at your service. It's actually been a while since we met. I have a good memory for faces, so I wouldn't be surprized if you don't remember."

[iC: Stronin]"Time to see what will happen if I press the buttons then," muttered Stronin as he floated upwards, before descending on one of the buttons.---IC: Zaphos"So how has everyone been?"

IC: Wade (Citadel, eating pizza)"Pretty good actually...no, I've been pretty bored, I'm not gonna lie." Wade said as he entered the room, the delicious smell of pizza wafting in the air and its source gleaming in a cardboard box. The Toa of magnetism walked over and took a piece, biting into it and marveling at its flavor."Oh man, this is some real good pizza." he declared through a mouthful. "Who brought this stuff?"

IC: AMTaOS (w/Stronin) / Test Chamber C-1When Stronin stepped upon the button, one of the X's near the door turned into a checkmark.-Toa Levacius Zehvor

IC: Zaphos"Me."

OOC: Inspiration...that's the shortest post I've ever seen in my rping life.IC: Wade (Citadel)"A Frostelus, eh? Haven't seen your kind in a while, much less expecting one to be bringing delicious pizza." Wade replied, still occupied with his slice. "But this is some real good pizza man, I just had to say it again. So tell me delivery...boy...what's your story?"

IC: Skyra - Citadel -Skyra took his hand. "Sorry...I can't recall ever meeting you...though my memories might of been damaged from being in stasis for so long."

OOC: Nah, just wait till somebody says 'I'.IC: Zaphos"That's basically it. I'm a pizza-delivering Frostelus. I am definitely not a lawyer. Nope, no law degrees here."---[iC: Stronin]"That's interesting," he muttered. "Wonder what'd happen if I step off this button."And he did so.

IC: HonnakThe Glatorian nodded, still smiling. "It's Ok, might actually better that you don't remember.""Yes, Zaphos, what has been going on, my friend?" He asked, quickly changing the subject. "I haven't seen you since the battle."

IC: Wade (Citadel)"I'd be lying if I said I wasn't surprised. Never heard of a Frostelus who simply delivers pizza..." Wade said almost to himself, finishing his pizza before wiping his greasy fingers on Honnak."Can't blame you for not have a degree of that type. I can assure you, I'm not a political creature."

IC: Zaphos"Well I ended up killing some random Hackers because they were interfering with my pizza deliveries. Then I got summoned by a rookie Toa of Magnetism, who seemed to think I was a fish. Then the ship crashed."

IC: Esao (Eastern Canyon)I stepped into the dropship and waited for the others to get on before setting autopilot."Head back to the CHI building," I muttered before walking towards the bathroom in the back. I could vaguely feel Mars' concerned stare as I walked past, but I merely slammed the door behind me and moved forward, pulling out the syringe I had used earlier and staring at it. I could feel the twisted, familiar crown of shame adorning my head as I stared at it, and I cursed quietly, tossing it into a wastebasket and incinerating its contents."My God, Esao," I heard myself whisper. "Enough is enough."-Teezy

IC: Jikal"Indeed. The only way I'll have a problem with you is if you interfere with my business." He smiled slightly. "I'm really a very reasonable being.""KrayzikkKrayzikk unplugged from the wall. "Zaphos, have I ever mentioned that I can't believe you're a pizza delivery being?"

IC: Zaphos"What's wrong with delivering pizzas man?"

IC: Wade (Citadel)"Dude, you're a Frostelus...you guys don't deliver pizzas...at least all of them 'cept you."

IC: Gust (The Citadel, New Metru Nui)"More to Zaphos than meets the eye," said the Toa Techna of Air, putting his seventh slice out of its misery and standing up. "Everyone ready to go?"-Teezy

IC: Zaphos"You're being very stereotypical," he said, before turning to face Gust. "Yep."

IC: Ezraftin / Eastern CanyonEzraftin sighed as he approached the door behind which Esao had hidden himself. He gently rapped on it. At least, that's what it looked like. Carrying an axe designed for Vortixx with the weight maximized most of the time tended to toughen you up, and the sound was startling at best.IC: AMTaOS / Testing Chamber C-1And when Stronin got off, it became an X once more.-Toa Levacius Zehvor

IC: Esao (Dropship, Eastern Canyon)"What's up?" I called out.-Teezy

IC: Skyra - Citadel -"Yeah I'm ready to go." Skyra pulled his Midak Skyblaster's out, making sure they were in working order

IC: KrayzikkKrayzikk would have grinned if he could, instead, he clanked his fists together. "Ready, sir."

[iC: Stronin]"I think I got the hang of this," the Iron Toa muttered. "I just need to put a weight on both buttons."He grinned, and quickly took off the heaviest parts of his armour, dropping them on the button, before flying over to stand on the other button.

OOC: Good grief, you decide to get moving when I'm minutes from going to sleep...IC: Wade (Citadel)"Stereotypical, maybe but it's true: you're the only Frostelus I've ever heard of that delivers pizza. Still, pizza's pizza, everyone likes it so I can't say you've done anything wrong. Did I tell you that it tastes great?" Wade said, turning to Gust."Yeah, I'm ready. When we come back, I want more pizza, though."

IC: Ezraftin / Eastern Canyon"We have at least five people missing now, and we're leaving. Care to explain the situation to us mere volunteers?"OOC: We could get rid of the addiction, if we could find what happened to Levacius' armband. What ever happened to the corpse, I wonder. Or anyone else who died on that ship. Oh, they're probably just rotting there still. It must stink on the Techna-Nui. I'll make note of that next time. The ship smells terrible.IC: AMTaOS / Testing Chamber #3The armor provided more than enough weight, and it switched to a checkmark once more. When Stronin stood on the other button, the other X became a checkmark too. The door opened."Your armor? Really? You're going to leave your valuable equipment in this room? Okay. Suit yourself."Silence.-Toa Levacius Zehvor

IC: ElirakI grinned. "Sounds good to me."IC: HonnakThe Glatorian checked his shotgun before turning towards the Toa Techna of Air. "Yeah I'm ready. Hey, Gust, you got a sniper rifle I could borrow?" he asked. " 'Cause I don't feel like spraying this thing around."

IC: Esao (Dropship, Eastern Canyon)I growled quietly and opened the door, walking out."We're headed back to the CHI to debrief," I replied. "Gust is bringing in a team to try and stop the AI: he's pretty sure that Equinox can find her in the ship's system faster than we can."IC: Gust (The Citadel, New Metru Nui)"Yeah," he said, tossing one sadly. "Take Jade's."-Teezy

IC: Ezraftin / Eastern Canyon"While I like things done systematically, this will take far too long. I have a better alternative. Or at least something to go side by side with that. One that can get us saving people faster."He presented the metallic spore bot. "At the moment, we can't trace this. But if we take this to someone with a Mask of Psychometry, we can have them show us its origin. Perhaps we can stop them before they're created."-Toa Levacius Zehvor

OOC: ... Totally saw that coming. IC: HonnakThe Glatorian caughht the rifle and stared at it for a minute. "Thanks..." was the only thing he said.Honnak might have been half-deaf, but he had heard what had happened. He was amazed at how well the Toa seemed to be handling it. Tough kid."Ready?" he asked, trying to change the depressing subject.

[iC: Stronin]"Does it look as if I have anything else on me?"

IC: Esao (Dropship, Eastern Canyon)"I'll take it to the labs at CHI," he said. "We should be there within the hour."IC: Gust (The Citadel, New Metru Nui)"Yeah," he said. "I'm ready."He sent a text to Honnak.>Whatever you do, don't scratch it.-Teezy

IC: Zaphos"Well, what exactly is our mission?"

IC: Ezraftin / Eastern Canyon"One other thing." Ezraftin said, before walking away. "The body can only be cleansed if the soul wishes to be untainted."IC: AMTaOS / Test Chamber C-1"No, no, you're right. You're perfectly right. It's not like this is a test of your elemental powers and your knowledge of how to use them."OOC: I need a font for Ezraftin. But what?-Toa Levacius Zehvor

IC: Honnak>I'm afraid to even fire it.>Anyway, I owed her a bullet.>Thought I'd let you know."Transport?" he asked, switching into his combat-self without meaning to.

IC, Kinvex: "I might take a look at it, too," said Kinvex. "I might be able to see how it works- and how to combat it more effectively."
