Topic: Wilypocalypse NOW

[Police Girl]

@RMZX: I have a friend who's an extremely talented musician, but a while back he stopped using synths. Why? He didn't think he needed to be relying on a crutch for his music. He released some songs but not too long after that fell into a musical rut and couldn't make anything. He didn't feel like it, and anything he tried making wasn't that good. Recently, he started using synths again, and as a result his productivity [and general demeanor] has improved considerably.

I'm telling you this because sometimes, even if you feel like you're using a crutch, that's not necessarily a bad thing. If it motivates you, and if it helps you out, then by all means go ahead. I'm not commanding you to do anything, just sharing an anecdote in the hopes that it might help you figure something out.)

(The reason I stopped using Akai was because I found her tough to write for, and I don't want a waifu character bogging me down and generally just being worthless. I don't want to bring less to this RP that I already do.)

[Sapphire Knight]

(It appears we're doing summaries of what's happened? Since a good chunk of mine is the same as Mirby's, I'll just type out the stuff that doesn't overlap.

[spoiler]
-Sapph wanders through the desert dragging his stuff
-He reveals his digimon
-Sapph plugs into the main consoles of the Pokemon League
-His digimon raid Wily II's network for something
-He starts building his new armor
-Sapph abruptly yells at the resistance base through a window
-He finishes the hardware of his armor and starts installing the software
[/spoiler]

Though, I don't think that'll help much aside from explaining why Sapph is suddenly a recolor of Iron Man with an army of Digimon.)

[Dr. Wily II]

(Well, you all have generally summarised everything, even mine. Anyways, still knocked out, nothing really new to add... Please carry on.)

[Sakura Leic]

PB's eyes slowly opened as he began to wake up and the first thing he saw was Zeta's peacefully sleeping form.  A small smile forms on his face as he was glad she seemed content after all the pain he caused her.

He himself felt his head was a little clearer and refreshed but he was far from being 100% okay.  He still felt guilty about what happen and scared of what he did, but he at least was in a better state than he was the night before.

Shortly after he woke up Zeta began to stir and open her eyes as well.  She looks at him with a smile on her face and he smiles back.

"Morning" She murmurs as she starts to sit up.

"Morning." He said back as he sat up as well.

When the 2 fully sat up they shared a small kiss and pulled away.

"I can't believe you hadn't kissed anyone like this before yesterday." PB smiled.

"Well I do see people kissing a lot and I tried to mimic it the best I could at first, then it just became more natural the more we did it." Zeta explained "God that explanation sounded so robotic didn't it."

"But it sounds so much like you." PB laughed "Either way you're getting better at that."

"Thank you." Zeta laughed as well before getting a little serious "So how are you feeling right now?"

"Well I feel a little less sore and my fever is gone." PB began "As for everything else it's still a mess but I at least feel calmer.  What about you?"

"I feel pretty refreshed and relaxed,  though I wish you felt the same way." Zeta said a bit regretfully.

"Hey don't worry about it, compared to last night I feel great, and knowing that I succeeded in helping you feel better was worth it.   At least I did something right after all that." PB said as he put an arm around her.

"I told you not to be so hard on yourself." Zeta admonished gently "You don't have have to beat yourself up like this."

"I know I shouldn't but that's what happens when you doubt yourself." PB sighed "Speaking of which how does my FRESCA look now?

"I can't tell if the Doubt is smaller or not." Zeta reported "I honestly don't really have this FRESCA thing down just yet."

"Would you like me to teach you more about it sometime?" PB asked  "It'll be pretty helpful later on."

"Sure, I admit I'm really curious about this phenomenon"  Zeta replied "It seems very useful and it sure helped Saki out."

"It has." PB nodded "I still remember when I met Sakura and discovered her potential.  I was really happy teaching her what I knew and seeing her grow, she's really been coming along and I'm proud of her."

"You really care about her." Zeta observed "She's probably going to see you today, do you think you can handle that?"

PB closed his eyes for a moment as he thought about it.

"I think I might be able to."  PB said after a while "I can't hide from her forever and I have to see her sooner or later, and I would rather it be sooner.

I miss her so much and I really want to talk to her so I can apologize.  I may not have fought against her like I did with you, but that doesn't mean I didn't cause her any less pain.  If it weren't for her I wouldn't be here right now, and I want her to at least see I'm trying to get better.  It's the least I can do for her right now."

"That's good to hear."  Zeta sighed in relief "I was a little scared that you would let your fear of hurting her hurt her even more."

"I admit I still am scared of hurting her, of anyone except you, but I'm never going to get through this if this fear conquers me.  I have to do this." PB said with determination.

"I'm so proud of you." Zeta hugged him.

"It's been a while since I heard someone say that to me, it's kinda nice." PB remarked as he hugged her back.

As they were hugging they heard PB's stomach rumbling.

"I just realize that I'm utterly starving." PB said sheepishly.

"And I forgot that you haven't eaten in days." Zeta said equally as sheepish "Why don't I get you some breakfast?"

"That sounds good, I could eat almost anything now." PB laughed

"At least you have you're appetite back." Zeta laughed "Will you be okay here by yourself?"

"I should be, I'll just be practicing my Bass while you're gone." PB replied.

"Okay I'll be right back." She said as she kissed PB's forehead "If you need me back here don't hesitate to let me know okay?"

"I won't." PB nodded.
 
Zeta walked over to the door and opened it when she notice Narancia standing in front of the exit.

"Rai, Rai!" He cried excitedly.

"Narancia what are you doing here?" She asked as she picked him up and started to pet him.

"I've never seen a Raichu that tiny before." PB remarked.

"You should have seen him when he was a Pika-whoa!" Zeta was interrupted as Pyre Heart ran into the room at breakneck speed.

"Whoa Pyre Heart!" PB said as Pyre Heart tackled him...despite not knowing Tackle.

"I wonder if there's anyone else out here." Zeta wondered as she looked out the door.

"Pyre Heart stop, it tickles!" PB laughed as he was tickled by Pyre Heart.

"Cyndaquil!" Pyre Heart cried as he continued to rub PB affectionately.

"You really missed me huh boy." PB said as he petted Pyre Heart.

"He's not the only one." Zeta remarks.

"Who else is..." PB stops in mid sentence as his answer enters the room

Sakura enters the room and looks at PB with a somewhat nervous expression.

"PB..." Sakura says as she begins to tear up a little.

Pyre Heat jumps out of his master's arms as PB stares at Sakura.  He was still scared that he was going to hurt her but seeing her cry and wanting to comfort her overrode it.

He opens up his arms as he knows what's going to happen next.

"Come here." He says as Sakura comes running towards and collapses in his arms.

"PB...PB!" Sakura keeps sputtering as she cries into PB's chest.

"It's okay I'm not going anywhere." PB soothes while stroking Sakura's back to  help calm her down and relax.

"I'll give you guys some privacy then." Zeta says as she looks at Narncia "Narancia why don't you stay here."

"Raichu." Narancia nodded.

"Good." Zeta says as she brings him closer and whispers something "If PB is starts losing it come and get me."

"Rai, Rai!" Narancia saluted quietly as she puts him down before she leaves the room.

As PB was busy comforting Sakura he felt a firm hand on his shoulder.   He turns his head to see Asch but couldn't recognize him.  Yin was by his side and sat at the foot of the bed.

"It's good to have you back." Asch smiled.

"...PBB!?" PB said in shock after realizing who he was "You look different!"

"Yeah there's a reason for that." Asch replied as he sat down on the bed across from him.

"He also changed his name." Sakura piped up while she lets go of PB and sits up next to PB.  Her eyes are still red due her crying and her cold.  Yin decided to sit on the bed next to her.

"Yeah my name is Asch now." Asch nodded.

"You changed you name too?" PB questioned with shock "I thought you liked PBB."

"I actually didn't." Asch sighed "It just left a really bad taste in my mouth."

"Why's that?" PB asked concerned

"Well it's because it reminded me that my original purpose is unobtainable, that I'm not you, I'm different." Asch began "It makes me feel that I'm stuck in your shadow and I don't want that, I want to learn how to be myself not how to be a failed version of you."

"Why didn't you say anything about this sooner?" PB questioned trying to digest what he heard.

"Well it was a combination of you being caught up in the party after the Wily Star II was destroyed and the fact that Wily II tried to reprogram me remotely." Asch explained "I just plain wasn't able to communicate that to you properly and all hell broke loose."

"Did you get fixed up?" PB changed the subject briefly.

"Yeah I'm fine, Sakura took care of the problem and I really owe her for it." Asch smiled.

"Asch please you don't owe me anything." Sakura blushed "You've already done so much for me already."

"No I haven't.  I haven't even begun to repay you for everything you've done." Asch disagreed.

"But you don't have to..." Sakura was interrupted by PB who raised a hand to stop the conversation.

"Guys, guys that's enough, you're going around in circles." PB said bluntly.

"Sorry." Both Asch and Sakura apologized.

"No no it's fine, I'm surprised you got so close in just a few days." PB chuckled. "Then again it was the same when we and Sakura first met."

"Really?" Asch asked.

"Yeah, although Sakura doesn't make a lot of friends the ones she does make are very close to her." PB nodded "Anyway I'm sorry I made you feel that way."

"It's fine." Asch dismissed "I should have told you up front in the first place."

"While that is true I should have paid more attention to that." PB replied "I just assumed that you would like it without actually asking."

"Fair enough, but was it because I was supposed to be a robotic version of you that you decided to give me that name?" Asch asked.

"Well that's part of the reason, another is because of my huge Ego I kinda think people related to the same person should have similar names." PB stated "In fact I usually come up with the names of Fexni's vehicles."

"I guess that kinda makes sense." Asch nodded.

"Another reason was that I kinda think of you as a little brother, much like how I think of PBPB as a sister despite the fact that she is my clone." PB continued.

"Really, but you don't know me.  Hell I was created to pretty much destroy this place, I could have easily just lie to you and stab you in the back!" Asch protested.

"All you said is completely correct, but there are a few reasons that I didn't think that way.  

The first is I would rather trust someone first before distrusting them, if it was the other way around I might as well not have friends.  Second if you were crazy enough to actually try that and betray us I was confident enough that we could have taken you down easily." PB explained.

"I guess that makes some sense." Asch muttered.

"The third reason is that right away I noticed you were very genuine when you said that you wanted to help us, the fact that you're still wearing those hand cuffs underneath your clothes is proof of that." PB observed.

"Well I don't want Old Bathair to just teleport me away to manually reprogram me." Asch shuddered "I really wouldn't put it past him."

"Understandable." PB nodded "The last reason was that you seem to actually think of what you want to do rather than following what Wily wants you to do.  

The employees of the ISS were robots created by Wily II, and we treated each other as really good friends.  But when Wily II initiated the war all of them turned on me just because they're programed to follow him, despite the fact that I treated them very well.

I don't get that from you, you saw that what he program you to do was impossible and didn't try to struggle with it.  You're different from they others and that made me want to trust you, especially now with what you did for Sakura here.  I can't thank you enough for that."

Asch took a minute to digest everything he heard before he spoke again.

"PB?" Asch began "Would it be okay if you continue to call me PBB?"

"You don't mind that?" PB asked.

"Well after all that I feel like it wouldn't be so bad anymore." Asch explained "Besides it seems that people calling each other crazy nicknames seems to be completely normal here."

"That's really true, I really love to name things, especially my Pokemon here." PB smiled "But if you don't mind I'll keep calling you PBB."

"I'm happy with that." Asch smiled.

"I'm glad you two were able to come to an understanding." Sakura said as she coughed a bit.

"Oh you're still sick aren't you Sakura." PB noticed "I was wondering why you weren't talking too much, are you okay?"

"I'm fine it's just a cold." Sakura sniffed,

"Still you should get plenty of rest." PB recommended.

"Is it okay if I stay here though?" Sakura asked.

"Of course you can, I know you really missed me." PB said as he put a arm around her.

"I really did." Sakura nodded "I wanted to make sure you were okay."

"Well my body is healing up just fine." PB frowned "However I'm going to need more time before I can get back out there."

"What do you mean?" Sakura asked as she couldn't believe what she was hearing.  Pyre Heart did a double take as well and Asch's eyes widened a little.

"I'm glad you weren't here last night Sakura."  PB began "I'm glad you didn't see how I acted, I was just so messed up.  I don't even want to think how I would be right now if Zeta didn't [sonic slicer] slap me and snapped me mostly out of it."

"Yeah that incident must have been pretty traumatic to you.  You had some horrible nightmares." Asch shuddered

"You saw me have nightmares too?" PB asked.

"Me, Zeta, Borock-bot, Sakura, and a couple of Berbils saw them." Asch nodded.

"Asch stayed by your side to try to calm you down when you started having those episodes." Sakura explained.

"I really thank you for that." PB said grateful

"No problem, I just wanted to help." Asch replied.

"That's exactly what Zeta told me." PB said softly.

"Is that why you and Zeta were sleeping together?" Sakura said suddenly.

"....How did you find that out?" PB asked.

"We came here about 2 hours ago and were wondering where Zeta was. Sakura was crazy enough to see if you two we're sleeping together." Asch explained.

"Sorry." Sakura sighed.

"It's fine, I understand." PB laughed "I don't blame you for being curious.  Are you mad at me for sleeping with a friend of yours?"

"No, you do that all the time." Sakura shook her head "Besides you must of had a reason to do it, and both of you were wearing clothes."

"Yeah there was a good reason." PB sighed "I caused her so much stress because..."

"You didn't want her to help you?" Sakura guessed.

PB's eyes widen at what Sakura just said.

"You pretended you were fine but she didn't believe you and slapped you right?" Sakura continued.

"Well she did believe me at first, but I didn't count on her being able to see FRESCA." PB admitted "You know me too well."

"I'm familiar with your thought process at least." Sakura nodded "I honestly would have done the same thing, or rather I already did that.  If I was there last night I would have punched you, hard."

"Even though he was sick!?" Asch asked incredulously

"It's fine because the PB I know wouldn't mind that at all.  No matter how many times you knock him down he only comes back stronger.  That's just how he is." Sakura said confidently

PB took in everything she said and smiled slightly.

"Heh I guess this is the part where the student starts teaching the master." PB chuckled "I still have a lot to learn."

"We all do." Sakura smiled.

"I learned that Sakura still scares the [parasitic bomb] out of me." Asch nodded.

"Ah don't worry she rarely gets mad." PB laughed. "In fact she usually only gets mad at me."

"But everyone gets mad at you." Sakura laughed.

"That's true." PB said sheepishly

All three of them laughed as Zeta came back into the room.  When she saw them she smiled.

"That's good he's actually starting to recover." Zeta thought to her self "He still has a long way to go but he's getting there."

"Zeta you're back." PB greeted as Pyre Heart went to sit on PB's lap "That was fast."

"Only because BB here anticipated that everyone was going to be hungry right about now." Zeta said as Borock-bot walked into the room.  Zet was also behind him and jumped on the bed Asch was on next to Narancia.

"Greetings everyone." Borock-bot greeted.  He was wearing his usual black shirt and grey pants.  He started to push the cart in between them.

"We took a bit longer to get food for the Pokemon.  It's been a while since I've seen Yin after all, I kinda forgot what she likes." Zeta smiled as she got a bowl full of Tamato and Spelon berries.

"Absol!" Yin cried as he mouth watered and jumped off the bed.

"Boy you seem hungry there." Zeta laughed as she put the bowl down in front of her.

"She was forced to eat a Pamtre berry because she lost a bet." Sakura explained.

"What kind of bet was it?" Zeta raised an eyebrow.

"Whether PB was sleeping with someone or not." Asch said a little embarrassed.

"Oh." Zeta blushed.

"Why don't you sit down Zeta." PB changed the subject and gestured to the spot next to him.

"Right." Zeta said quickly and sat next to him.

"It's good to see that you're feeling better Mr. PB." Borock-bot said as he finished pushing the cart.

"It's good to feel better, though I'm still a long way to a full recovery." PB smiled sadly.

"Yes I realized that, which is why I took the liberty of writing a report of what transpired while you were gone." Borock-said as he gave PB a stack of stapled papers.

"Wow that's a huge report!" Asch's eyes widened

"Well it also includes the profiles of new members of the Resistance." Borock-bot explained.

"Ah thanks dude, I'll get to reading it right away." PB said as he opened the first page before Zeta stopped him.

"Maybe you should wait until after breakfast." Zeta said nervously.

"Yeah weird stuff happened while you were gone." Sakura said equally as nervous.

"Very weird stuff." Asch agreed.

"Okay I'll take your word for it." PB said as he put the report away "Now let's eat some real food."

"Right." Everyone said as they started eating.

(There was supposed to be a deleted scene with Pyre Heart but I scrapped it due to way too much dialog in this part.  Also put in Borock-bot's default outfit because I never did.)

[Rin]

Kharaxel sluggishly moved through the streets of the city. He couldn't help but notice, that everything was in worse state, than back when he was here last time. He also overheard something about "Protoman of Blues" and "Attacking" but felt too tired to listen more carefully.

Right now he merely wanted to reach his Master's house, and figure out what to do next.

Suddenly... he heard a voice in his head. A female one.

Female Voice - "Well... this is not good."

And after that, another one. A voice most familiar.

Tron - "Gee, you think?!"

Kharaxel stopped in his tracks, mortified.

Kharaxel - "Tron?! You're..."

Tron - "Chill out, kiddo. I'm not going to take over you this time."

Kharaxel - "Yeah, sure, like I'll believe that."

Tron - "Bah! I have no power to do so anymore... and it's all thanks to The Maiden's brilliant idea."

Kharaxel - "The Maiden? Wait... that other voice."

The Maiden - "Yup. That would be me. In short, Mr. Kharaxel, we have no powers and the only thing we can do is talk to you."

Kharaxel felt relieved.

Kharaxel - "But... how did that happen? Did the Resistance..."

Tron - "Heh, they had nothing to do with this. In fact, I am not telling you anything more. Let's go to that geezer's house and speak with him... though it might be pretty hard for you, because I recently beat him up."

Kharaxel - "Oh God..."

Tron - "He's alright... I think. Just get your damnable move on, okay?"

The Maiden - "I concur."

Kharaxel capitulated and resumed his march. He had no other choice. He just silently wondered who The Maiden is and how on earth did she worm her way into his body.


(Yeah. I'm gonna stretch it for a couple of posts. As for Unity, it's up to something, but I'm not addressing it right now.)

[Sakura Leic]

(The mystery is getting weirder and weirder.)

[Police Girl]

RMZX slumped about, not doing anything useful. The thing he had been given by Keco was glowing, but all it did was bug RMZX's eyes, it didn't seem to be giving off any power like he thought it had.

RMZX - "What a useless piece of junk... I should just throw it out. Its not doing anything."

[White-Jet]

With WilyII cutting off contact, Hajime takes a moment to rethink his intentions.  He still intends to execute Plan B regardless of whether the Resistance recognize him in his Mecha Dragon replica mech, but in order to do so, he needs to vacate his Robot Masters except Tarot Cat (for reasons explained prior to being talked into repairing the Wily Star II) so they aren't spotted and destroyed with so much as a negotiation to switch sides.  WilyII's incapacitation was all the opportunity he needed to get this done since Fix-It Man and Paint-It Man would more than willingly finish up repairs regardless of whether his Robot Masters stayed or not.

He presses some buttons on the console in front of him, opening up frequency channels to his Robot Masters as they were lingering about the interior of the Wily Star II with nothing to do except for Concession Man, who blissfully follows Fix-It Man and Paint-It Man, offering them refreshments with each completion of a room.

"It's almost time," he said, "The Resistance have caught onto the repairs of the Star and will infiltrate it, hopefully to make sure there isn't a single lug nut left behind to be salvaged by doc's robots.  Considering what's happened in St. Acidburg, and how many members of the Resistance recognize you as part of my crew, there's a possibility they won't even bother talking you into joining their side and gun you down the second they spot you.  So I'm giving you this one chance to return to the Junkyard and stay hidden unless further commanded by Chariot, Magician, or Ryuta."

Most of the Robot Masters look to whoever was with them as they linger about before nodding in acceptance and teleport back to the RPM Junkyard without a second thought.  Beast Man and Concession Man remained, the latter too busy digging through his supplies for E-capsules to give to Fix-It Man after completing one of the rooms to pay attention to the announcement and the former lost in thought over his personal conflicts.

While he had no loyalties to any Wily after being reconfigured into a werewolf-like robot and tossed into the Junkyard just for liking a catgirl, he still owes them for giving him life and the ability to do more than just follow commands.  Not to mention being born a Wily robot first meant he harbors a dormant personality overwriting bug that would activate if he so much as thinks of joining any opposing forces.  Either way he shouldn't abandon this duty even if he knew it would protect more than just the initiation of Plan B.


No sooner had Hierophant fled from the control room, he noticed a card-like blur zip overhead, heading in the exact opposite direction he was fleeing from.  Realizing it was Emperor, he and Death ran after him only to see Random Man scramble out of the control room, looking around in frantic hysteria before punching in a different set of numbers, causing the doors to fly shut just as the card had slipped, unnoticed, into the room.

Fazing into the control room, they see Emperor take his usual position behind WilyII's backrest, all but blissfully unaware of the half-dazed doctor laying swirly-eyed on the console.  He hasn't initiated his Vanish ability, and seemed to eager to wait for the doctor to wake up to realize he had been spotted by the very cards he had been fleeing from.

"Now or never...." Hierophant mutters mostly to Death before pointing his staff towards Emperor and hissing "Vanish!"

By the time Emperor heard his voice, the gray ball of light flew towards him, causing another series of crystal-like entities to surround him, the Evil Spinning Chair, WilyII, and his control console.

"Let's hurry before he wakes up," Death pipes as Hierophant rushes over to grab Emperor only to see him let out a deafening, girlish shriek and leap out of the way, causing both his encounter with the back of the chair and the ear-piercing noise to snap WilyII back to his senses.

The maddening doctor "acks" before scrambling back to a proper sitting position, inadvertently banging his head into Hierophant's face and knocking him flat onto his back.

"EH!?  WHAT!?!? WHERE!?!?!?  I'LL KILL 'EM!!!  I'LL KILL 'EM ALL!!!!"

As he was whipping his head and chair around to figure out what is where, his sporadic eyes immediately locked onto Hierophant dragging himself to a propped position his hands, using one of them to cover a fountain of citrine blood spilling out of his near broken nose.

"YOU!" he shouts, pointing ever so dramatically at Hierophant as he snaps out of his agonized daze upon realizing he had been spotted yet again.  WilyII twirls his chair and uses the very hand he pointed with to  slam onto one of the buttons to call in his robot army.

Hierophant yelps and springs to his feet, pointing his staff at the control console, "DISPEL!"

WilyII's finger was no less than an inch from hitting the button when a pillar of rainbows surrounded it, causing his entire hand to faze through the console.  The enraged doctor does a double take before attempting to hit the button several more times only to see his hand fall through the console.

Letting out the most inhumane roar short of the Hulk, he whips his chair around to face Hierophant, "YOU DARE MESS WITH MY CONTROLS AGAIN!?!?!?!?  MURDER!!!!"

He then charges towards Hierophant and Death, who panic and scramble out of the control room by fazing right through the sliding door and into the adjacent wall just as WilyII pops out, stopping immediately upon realizing he had gone straight through the door.  He turns to face the door, stepping in and out before looking down at himself to find his entire body had become a transparent, white outline.

It was then that he realized that the intruder also appeared as a transparent, white outline, further confirming Unity's claim of there being an invisible magical card lurking about.  But as he was about to contemplate how to use this to his advantage, he failed to notice Hierophant poking his head out of the wall he fazed through, pointing his staff at his once solid body.

"Dispel!" he shouts, grabbing WilyII's attention just in time to see the orb on his staff glow white.  The manic doctor screams "CHARGE!!!" before careening towards his transparent foe only to be hit by the glowing orb of light, turning him solid in an obscuring burst of orange clouds leading to an uneventful connection with the very wall his target was hanging out of.

"Well, that didn't last long...." Death sighs, rubbing her hair a third time as she watches WilyII tip over and fall flat on his back with little chibi Aile's of different Rock-On forms circling his dazed eyes.

"Let's just get Emperor before one of his robots shake him back to his senses...." Hierophant mutters as he runs back into the control room to find Emperor glued to the still dented ceiling.

Noticing the Evil Spinning Chair was still affected by his Vanish spell, Hierophant plops down onto it and pushes the lever controlling its height, raising the chair towards the ceiling close to where Emperor is.  Emperor grinds his teeth in frustration before turning his head to the side and placing the back of his hand near his cheek, letting out a feminine laugh.

"Oh, you think you've got me beat just because the great mastermind is unconscious," he chortles, "But you're forgetting one important factor about my card...."

He then drops below the card's screen tossing clothes around before popping back up in a white mage costume complete with the hood draped over his head.

"I can also cast magic!" he exclaims before pointing a wooden stick with a gold ankh attached to the end towards the hydraulics controlling the height of the Evil Spinning Chair, "Dispel!"

The orb attached to the body of the gold ankh glows white as a pillar of rainbows surrounds the chair, causing Hierophant to fall through the seat and land hard on his back as the chair returns to its physical form.  Agonized beyond senses, Hierophant struggles to sit back up while prepping his staff to cast Float on himself only to hear the keypad beeping as the door slides open and WilyII charges into the room, snorting steam from his nose while looking around at the drastic change in scenery.

"CURSE THAT INTRUDER!!!  HE BETTER BE GOOD AT SQUIRMING  AND BEGGING FOR MY FORGIVENESS WHEN MY ROBOTS FIND HIM!!!"

Hierophant gulps silently as he slowly and quietly starts crawling out of the control room with Death irritably following after him.

[Dr. Wily II]

(LOL, chibi Ailes... I want to remain dazed to see them again!! )

As Dr. Wily II fumbled with his console, trying to get the the monitors back online, he tried to set his scanners to scan for light-refracted invisibility. Not long after, the security cameras came back online, scanning throughout the whole WDS.

DWII - I WILL GET YOU, YOU ACCURSED INTRUDER!!

[Fxeni]

Fxeni was in the hangar, prepping the Fxescythe for Operation: Station Break as PBPB walked in.

"Hey Fexy, I'm not sure we have enough time for you to be fiddling around too much with that," PBPB said as she pointed to the Fxescythe.

"It should help us for the Operation though, PBPB." Fxeni answered, wiping away some sweat from his forehead. "I made a few quick modifications to the cloaking system so that it would, in theory, be able to cover a larger radius. This way I should be able to cloak the Ardjet during our approach, at least temporarily."

"That'll certainly make it easier to sneak in to the I.S.S. undetected!" PBPB said with a grin.

"Yeah, but our timing will have to be perfect. The changes I made are kind of unstable so I doubt I'll be able to even cloak afterwards for a little while," Fxeni said as he examined the systems he modified.

"Well that's alright, once we're in we won't need it," PBPB responded confidently.

"Hopefully. Now here's what we're going to do," Fxeni said as he pulled out a schematic of the I.S.S. and pointed to a side entrance, "here's where we should probably go-"

"Hold on a sec!" PBPB said as she looked at the schematics Fxeni had spread out, "where did you get that?!"

"I have schematics of everything... just in case." Fxeni answered plainly as he looked at the schematics.

"Everything? Just in case? That somehow doesn't feel right..." PBPB said a bit uncomfortably.

Fxeni stopped looking at the schematics and turned around to look at PBPB, who was looking down towards the schematics uncomfortably. He hesitates momentarily, but then puts his hand on her shoulder. "Look Peebs... I'm just looking out for everyone in case something like this whole war happens. I've had these things forever and I haven't done anything with them until now. Besides, I'm the only one who can access these documents, I made sure of that."

"Fine, but make sure it stays that way! I swear, if it turns out that Bathair McBastard has any of these I'm going to make you get rid of all of them... forcefully if I have to," PBPB said as she poked his chest roughly.

"Don't worry, I'd get rid of them myself in that case. Both the ones here and at the Doc's place," Fxeni replied confidently as he took his hand off her shoulder.

PBPB looked at him momentarily. She knew that he was being completely honest, and he would've brought this up a long time ago if he felt like it was a threat. "You're lucky I like you, if you were any other guy I would've kicked your ass right away!" PBPB said with a grin.

"Oh I know, heh..." Fxeni said with a chuckle. "Now let's get this Operation on the road! Let's get in through this entrance, it has a few more security blind spots than any of the other ones. There should be some debris nearby we can use as cover during the approach, right around here."

"Sounds like a plan to me!" PBPB said with a nod, and she went over to the Ardjet and got in it. Before she closed the hatch, she had one question to ask. "Hey Fxeni... 'Peebs'? Really? Couldn't you have found something less lame?"

"I dunno, seemed fine at the time," Fxeni said with a shrug, then quickly scooped up the schematics and hopped into the Fxescythe.

"Well it wasn't!" PBPB said with a grin as she closed the hatch.

"Yeah yeah yeah, whatever Peebs!" said with a chuckle as he closed the hatch to the Fxescythe. The hangar doors to the Fxenodrome opened up wide, and both mechs blasted off towards the I.S.S.

[White-Jet]

Light refracted detection could have worked, if the intruders were made of glass, or surrounded by mirrors, or, in the case of Hierophant and Death, not still in the room, overhearing his tirade just before they poked an inch of their hand or card through the door.

"For someone who made a robot that controls magic, he isn't too bright about the concept of an invisibility spell...." Death mutters, half-chuckling.

"Let's not give him any other ideas and just find an obscure room to hide in so I can cast Float and get the Emperor out of that room...." Hierophant mutters.

They continue through the door just as one of the scanners hit them, passing right through them as their invisibility couldn't even produce a shadow.  The two barely gave it any thought and continue through the hallways until they came to a holodeck most likely used for land and other simulations that can't be performed indoors.

"How convenient," Death muses, "Now if only we can actually touch the controls, we might have ourselves a useful hiding spot to gets some other spells cast."

"That's also if we can figure out how these controls work...." Hierophant mutters, "I can't figure out any of these buttons other than the one that opens the door."

"Perhaps we can peek inside and see if there's a simulation going on we can use to our advantage...."

Hierophant tries to say something, but Death was already fazing through the door by the time he turned his full attention to her.  Sighing in reluctance, he follows after her, finding themselves in the vastness of space with an asteroid belt at one end and the RPM Planet close by.

"How interesting...." Death muses again, "I wonder if that planet is just a hologram or actually accessible."

She starts to drift towards it only to notice something else in the distance; the SexStation where the Resistance have formed their forces.

"These must be where the doctor sends his robots to test the best possible way to overwhelm the Resistance...." Hierophant mutters nervously.

"How exciting!" Death chortles, "I've always wanted to see a premonition in action!"

"You want to check out a fight that's obviously going to end in the doctor's favor!?" Hierophant nearly yelps.

"Oh, relax," Death retorts, "It's all pretend, a video game to help the old bat's robots get better at their abilities.  Who knows, there might be someplace in that make-believe station you could use to cast your Float spell without no one noticing."

Hierophant wanted to retort back, but given their lack of familiarity with the WDS, and how vital it was to get Emperor away from WilyII, he restraints himself to letting out a reluctant sigh.

"Alright....  Let's see what we can find in the virtual SexStation...."

They make their way into the station, finding it littered with disabled robots and digital corpses that could most likely be the generic grunts of the Resistance.

"Shows how much the old bat knows how many members of the Resistance there really is," Death quips amusingly.

Hierophant shook nervously at the gruesome sight, but quickly shakes his head and looks around the station, muttering to himself, "Just look for an empty room to hide....  Just look for an empty room to hide...."

He starts to meander through the hallways of the SexStation, unsure of whether WilyII was familiar of the goings on prior to declaring war on RPM.  They eventually find themselves in a lounge of sorts, more than further insinuating their assumption that the doctor had once been here at some point.

None of the robots sent to train in the holodeck were touching the area, giving Hierophant an opportunity to cast his Float spell without being spotted.  He wanders to an obscure area of the lounge before holding the staff over his head, concentrating on his Float spell as the orb glowed brightly and emitted bright, feathery entities which trail down towards his back and form large, glowing white wings near the edge of the card still plastered to his back.

Unfortunately, the spell was taking a while to become as invisible as the rest of his body, and the bright glow was grabbing some of the robot's attention as they look towards the lounge to see if there was some new modification to the simulation they weren't aware of.  Hierophant grits his teeth nervously as he scrambles behind a large couch and duck just low enough to hide the large, fading wings from sight.

The robots poked their heads into the room, looking left and right before shrugging and continuing their hunt for the main Resistance members.  Hierophant popped his head up before noticing Death had suddenly disappeared.

"Oh, c'mon.... Don't do this to us now...." he mutters nervously before ducking back behind the couch and waiting for his wings to finish fading into the same visibility as himself.

[Dr. Wily II]

(THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS MAGIC JUST SCIENCE BLINDING SCIENCE)

As the security cameras continue their fruitless search, Dr. Wily II had managed to get the monitors back online, and noticed that the Wily Star II has indeed looked such more... Whole. Looking over to his long-range scanners, he noticed that the SexStation is totally quiet, most likely still reeling in the after-effects of the Frenzy Waves. As for the Fxendrome, he had lost contact of it since the battle of St. Acidburg, although Dr. Wily II didn't seem worried about it.

DWII - Soon... Once the Wily Star II is finished... I WILL strike back at the Resistance... BY AIMING RIGHT AT THEIR PRECIOUS SEXSTATION!!

[Sakura Leic]

(Somehow this part came out really fast.)

"I can't believe all that happened in such a short time." PB said as he finished the report.

"Yeah it was just really hectic, and I still have no idea where that fox boy came from." Asch sighed

"I'm still stuck on the fact that the engine blew up while I was gone!" PB said surprised.

"Or the fact that Thron or Tron dude opened all the windows while we went to to get the part to fix it." Zeta sighed "I'm glad no one was hurt."

"I just couldn't believe Kharaxel had that evil split personality all this time, though I thought his FRESCA looked odd." PB pondered.

"Why didn't you say anything earlier?" Sakura asked.

"You know me young one, I didn't think of him as a major threat at the time and if it did surface I probably could have handled it." PB explained.

"I guess that makes sense, he didn't seemed to be as powerful as he claimed he was." Sakura nodded "He seemed to be limited because he didn't have his real body."

"I'm still confused about that, what the hell is this Thron or Tron person supposed to be?" Asch asked. "Just trying to think about it makes my head hurt."

"We'll have to wait until we see Drunkgun to get an explanation of what the hell is going on." Zeta sighed.

"Hey Zeta that reminds me, do you know Mr. Wildgun?" Sakura asked.

"Kinda, he was one of my regular customers." Zeta nodded "The dude even showed up when I was working in the Southern Branch."

"Why the Southern Branch of all places?" Sakura questioned

"The dude's an archeologist." Zeta explained "When I met him he was looking around the former Sparkvanian territory.  After I transferred to the Eastern Branch he started looking around the east."

"And then he decided one day to give you the Ace of Clubs?" Sakura prodded

"Yeah he just gave me the thing and told me to find the King of Hearts." Zeta nodded.

"Can someone explain those crest things again?" PB asked

"They're supposed to be the key to stop destruction or something." Asch explained. "Sakura has to find who has the crests and have them passed down or something, but that Hitomi chick didn't really give enough information about it."

"Yeah that sounds like Hitomi alright." PB laughed.

"All we know is that Sky Child has the Queen of Spades but we have no idea where she is." Sakura sighed.

"Wait Skyla has the Queen of Spades?" Zeta raised an eyebrow "That's not right."

"Wait a minute Zeta you know who does?" Sakura asked.

"Guess I let it slip." Zeta sighed "I don't just know who has the Queen of Spades I know who holds the other crests too."

"How do you know that?" PB asked.

"It's kinda a long story." Zeta shrugged

"Is it related to your past?" PB asked.

"Sorta." Zeta nodded

"Okay I'll ask about it again when you're ready." Said PB

"Aren't you bothered by this?" Zeta asked

"Not really I mean you said you normally don't mind talking about it so someone here must know, right." PB questioned

"Right." Sakura nodded.

"So I don't need to worry about it right now." PB nodded "I trust you Zeta."

"Thanks..." Zeta said surprised

"Why did Hitomi lie about that anyway?" Asch asked. "Wouldn't that send us on a wild goose chase?"

"Hitomi can sometimes lie to people for her own amusement." Borock-bot explained.

"Somehow that doesn't surprise me." Asch face palmed

"So can tell us who has them, Zeta?" PB asked.

"I can tell Saki but I can't tell anyone else." Zeta replied.

"Why not?" Asch questioned.

"Well 2 of the members already chose who they want to give it to but they don't want to do it yet.  They have to prove that they're worthy of the crest or something, as for the last one I haven't seen them in a long time and I haven't had contact with them.  You're guess on where they are are as good as mine." Zeta explained

"Wildgun knows about this power and that Maiden person mentioned that Mr. PB can get this power as well.  Do you think that and the crests are connected?" Borock-bot inquired.

"I wouldn't know, although I know who holds the crests I don't know who they're going to give it to." Zeta replied "But I wouldn't be surprised if PB was one of them."

"Either way we can't worry about that until PB and Sakura fully recover." Asch sighed. "And PB has a long way to go."

"Yeah I really do." PB said looking down.

"Don't worry about it PB, just take your time." Zeta said as she put a hand on his shoulder.

"I know I should, but it's frustrating sitting around at a time I needed most." PB sighed.

"We know it is PB, but you need to do it for your sake." Sakura coughed.

"You guys are both right." PB admitted "But I have to make a serious decision now."

"What's that?" Zeta asked.

"Well I've come to realize that I made some crappy choice over the past few days, the party, the Met army, even last night could have been handled much better." PB began.

"Don't think like that PB, you can't change the past." Zeta reprimanded

"I know I can't but I don't want to make another decision that's going to blow up in your guy's faces like that." PB shook his head "All those decisions were made because of my Ego not my brain.  My Ego blinded me of the possible consequences of my actions and now we're here.  I'm messed up and Sakura is sick because of me."

"PB please that's not your fault." Sakura coughed again.

"Maybe not directly young one." PB said as he put an arm around her "But the stress caused by my absence must have shot your immune system straight to hell."

"So what exactly are you going to do?" Asch asked curiously

"Well PBB I've come to the conclusion that I need to learn to control my Ego." PB decided "I can't believe I'm saying this, but my Ego is much too big and I need to either learn to control it or make it smaller to the point that I can control it." PB declared.

Sakura and Yin couldn't believe what they were hearing but Pyre Heart was the most shocked by what he just heard.

"Cynda...CYNDAQUIL!" Pyre Heart cried loudly before stiffening and tumbling to the ground on his back.  

His scarf came undone and his sunglasses fell off making him look like an ordinary Cyndaquil.  Narancia jumped down from where he was sitting poking Pyre Heart with his stubby little paws while Yin face pawed and muttered something about him being over dramatic.

Everyone else just stared at Pyre Heart's unconscious body.

"Sakura?" PB said after a while.

"Yes?" Sakura answered still looking at Pyre Heart.

"What did he say before he fainted?" PB asked.

"He said something about it being the end of the world." Sakura replied.

"That sounds about right." PB nodded.

"Guess PB saying his Ego is too big is super effective on him." Zeta stated dryly.

"It may have even been a critical hit." Borock-bot agreed.

"So is there anyway that we can wake him up?" Asch asked.

"Well if we had something Sour with us that would probably work." PB replied.

At hearing the word Sour Narancia rustled through his sack and pulled out a Belue berry.

"Rai?" Narancia asked.

"That should work." PB nodded "Yin you mind slicing this open?"

"Absol." Yin smirked as she sliced the Sour berry open with her claws.

The smell was enough to make Pyre Heart's nose twitch and eventually made him cover his nose as he regained consciousness.

"Why are his eyes still closed?" Asch wondered.

"All Cyndaquil are like that." Borock-bot explained.

"Okay then." Asch understood.

Pyre Heart eventually started doing a little panicked dance as Yin laughed at his antics.

"It's okay Pyre Heart." PB said as he picked him up and sat him down on his lap  again.  Zeta decided to get a plastic baggie from on of the cupboards and put the Belue berry in it.

"I can probably give this to Celty later." Zeta commented

With the smell mostly gone Pyre Heart breathed as much fresh air as he could as he recovered.

"Cynda!" Pyre Heart cried angrily and flames shot out his back briefly.

"Whoa what the hell?" Asch shouted

"That's Pyre Heart's ability as a fire type." Borock-bot explained

"Okay...." Asch said nervously still shocked at what he saw.

"I'm sorry Pyre Heart." PB said as he started to pet Pyre Heart's back which still felt warm from earlier.

Pyre Heart eventually calmed down as PB kept petting him gently.

"Cyndaquil?" Pyre Heart asked after a while.

"Yeah I'm serious about my decision Pyre Heart, I don't want to be blinded by my Ego like that and hurting everyone because of it ever again." PB nodded.

Pyre Heart thought about what his master said before rubbing at him in forgiveness.

"Thanks Pyre Heart." PB smiled as he continued to pet him.

"So do you have any idea of how to tackle task?" Zeta asked.

"I really don't I never even thought of doing something like this before." PB sighed.

"Well whatever you decide we'll all back you up." Sakura said with determination.

"Definitely." Asch nodded.

"Thanks you guys." PB smiled.

(I think I'm going to wait until Kharaxel gets back to the ship before I continue and start working on the flashbacks again.  I mostly made this to retcon Sky Child having the Queen of Spades, explain odd connections, explain PB's plan of action, and put in that gag with Pyre Heart.)

[Police Girl]

*A little earlier*

RMZX walked towards the hangar, planning on tossing the seemingly worthless item he had been given.

As he passed down the hallway, he heard the voices of others.

RMZX - "Hm? That sounds like that robot guy, Sakura, I think PB too... I can't recognize the last one though, must be somebody I haven't met, what are they talking about?"

RMZX sat beside the door and listened in, curious as to whats going on.

(Eavesdropping is kind of a good way to get back into relevancy, right?)

[Sakura Leic]

(Just say he's been eavesdropping for a while.)

[Police Girl]

(I'll change my post to reflect that.)

[Sakura Leic]

(Okay in the mean time I'll be working on flashbacks again.)

[Rin]

(Actually, it would be a good time to address something from Unity's side. As in ,what the hell is it doing right now. Plus, more Kharaxel too.)


Unity floated right beside Sakura, however, thanks to one of Maiden's abilities, it allowed it to be completely invisible to others. That included FRESCA and other kinds of things.
However, there was one dowside, in this state, Unity could not interact with anybody. Trying to touch somebody would just end with its hand passing through.

"Oh how wonderful it would be, to just gut most of you right now." Said Unity, cackling. "Shame I cannot... then again, where is the fun in that? Right, Saki?"

With that said, Unity waved its hand before Sakura's face.

"Well... I guess learning about your enemies is most useful. Especially if you wish to make them suffer later..." it said, cackling once again. "So then... what kind of show will you bring me, pitiful Resistance?"

*  *  *

Kharaxel finally managed to get to his master's house, however...


"Get the hell away from me!" Shouted Wildgun and tossed a pillow at Kharaxel.

"Master! Stop it! It's really me this time!" Pleaded Kharaxel.

"Is that so?! Then tell me... what is my favorite brand of alcohol?"

"Beer?" Said The Maiden.

"Whiskey." Replied Kharaxel.

"Okay. It's you." Said Wildgun, calming down.

"I don't know if I should be surprised, or extremely disappointed at how easy it went." Spoke The Maiden.

"I suggest both." Tron said, chuckling.


Kharaxel quickly explained to Wildgun, what he understood of his current situation.


"Well boy, this is not good. Though I don't really want to scare you, but this is very bad. Both for you, and for this world.

"What's wrong, master?"

"According to Tron, he inserted the crystal into his chest, while at the base of that crazy scientist, Wily... correct?"

"Yeah." Kharaxel nodded. "But after that they woke up without any powers inside my body. Him and The Maiden... whoever she is."

"Yes. So... it stands to reason that the entire power of The Maiden and Tron is now in Wily's posession. "

"Oh no..."

"Exactly. So, boy... you're going to go up there to that... Sexstation, and tell them this."

"M-me?" Kharaxel felt surprised. He didn't think he will have to go back to the Resistance. Especially not after the trouble Tron must have caused.

"Yes. You. Here, take this:"


Wildgun gave Kharaxel a small stone.

"This is a teleportation stone. I have a couple of them, each stone works only two times. So if you want to get to the Sexstation, you better focus properly on that place, and once you do, you just say 'Teleport' and bam, you're at your destination."

Kharaxel grabbed the stone and began to think and focusing on the Sexstation. He didn't really want to go back there, but he had not much choice. He had to only hope they will listen to him, otherwise they might probably beat him up.

"Teleport."

And with that, Kharaxel vanished in a flash.


-----------------

Kharaxel reappeared on the Sexstation, and at that moment, the security alarm was heard once again.

"Oh no, no, no, no." Kharaxel began to panic.

"Calm your nipples, moron. It's just a typical alarm. And in fact, it's better this way, because you don't have to look for them. Just try to be... well, yourself. Then they should have no trouble telling it's you. Yeah." Spoke irritated Tron.


(Yeah. So here it is. Kharaxel is back on Sexstation. Wooo!)

[Dr. Wily II]

(Unity is so evil. And tormenting. And so HIM. )

[Mirby]

The next morning...

Taylor awoke, rested and refreshed. She gathered her things and prepared to leave, prepared her things to fight Wily.

"Taylor, we still can't hit Mega. Are you sure we're ready to fight?" HeatGabumon said concerned.

"We'll be fine, I'm sure. Although there is a good chance we'll end up battling in space..." she replied, pondering the possible circumstances.

"And VolcanoGarurumon isn't exactly equipped for space battles..." HeatGabumon spoke sadly.

"Well... it's off to find Sapph and tell him farewell. I really hope we don't have to fight him after this." Taylor looked out the window and sighed. The two left the room, turning the light off as they did so, and went off to find the one who'd soon be their former ally.

(VolcanoGarurumon is HeatGabumon's normal Mega form, but MechaGarurumon is a special Mega form that he'll achieve for the purposes of this RP, mostly because it involves Biomerging and as such is suitable for battle in space, or wherever they may need to fight)

[Sakura Leic]

(Unity still creeps the [tornado fang] out of me. )

"What the hell is going on!" Asch shouted

"An intruder has appeared in the Sex Station." ADA responded.

"[tornado fang] as if we needed this happening right now." PB said as he started to get up.

"PB stop, you're in no condition to handle it right now!" Zeta yelled.

"But-" PB protested.

"I'm sorry Mr. PB but she's right." Borock-bot agreed.

"We can take care of it from here." Said Asch.

"Just please stay here." Zeta pleaded.

"....Fine I understand." PB said after seeing how worried Zeta was "Just be careful okay?"

"We will." Asch nodded.

"Saki you stay here okay?" Zeta

"Okay." Sakura nodded.

The 3 robots headed out the door with Narancia in tow and opened the door quickly scaring RMZX in the process.

"Ah I'm sorry!" RMZX cried as he put his arms in front of him.

"What are you talking about?" Asch raised an eyebrow.

"No time come with us!" Zeta yelled as she grabbed RMZX by the collar and dragged him along.

"What the heck is going on!" RMZX shouted.

"There appears to be a intruder aboard this ship." Borock-bot stated calmly.

"Why am I coming with you then!?" RMZX asked incredulously

"We don't know what we're up against and could use all the help we can get!" Zeta answered.

"But-" RMZX started.

"No buts just keep moving!" Asch shouted.

"Fine." RMZX face palmed.

Eventually the group found Kharaxel looking absolutely terrified.

"Kharaxel is that you?" RMZX asked "I haven't seen you in a while man."

"That's not Kharaxel!" Asch yelled "That's Tron!"

"No you're wrong it's me!" Kharaxel panicked

"How do we know you're not trying to trick us!" Zeta cried as she summons her Spear/Hammer.

"Please you have to listen to me!" Kharaxel cried.

"I'm not buying it!" Asch roared as he got ready to fight.

"Please calm yourselves you two, he's telling the truth." Borock-bot said as he stood in the way of both of them.

"How can you tell?" Asch questioned.

"His FRESCA is telling me that he is in control, and Tron's FRESCA is much weaker." Borock-bot explained.

"Is that true." Asch relaxed a little.

"I really need to get this FRESCA thing down." Zeta sighed.

"I'm sorry for the hostile greeting, welcome back Mr. Kharaxel." Borock-bot bowed as he apologized.

"No I understand, I don't blame them for acting that way for the trouble I may have caused you." Kharaxel calmed downed.

"Can you explain what the hell happened then?" Asch asked.

"I think so, but I need to talk to Protoman of Blues and Ms. Sakura and tell them something." Kharaxel explained

"Is there a chance that Tron dude will posses you again?" Zeta asked warily

"He says he's powerless now, but some weird things are going on." Kharaxel replied.

"Yes I do sense another presence in you but like Tron it's very weak." Borock-bot confirmed.

"Okay we'll take you to them then" Asch sighed.

"Thank you." Kharaxel said while still shaking."

"What the [tornado fang] is going on!" RMZX yelled as the group headed back to Sickbay 2.

[Police Girl]

RMZX - "Uhh... I still don't know what all this talk about Fresca is... isn't that just some terrible Diet Soda? So anyway, what exactly is going on?"

[Sakura Leic]

"We'll explain later, there are things we need to find out too." Said Zeta

[Police Girl]

RMZX -"Ah, alright. I guess we should just see what's up with Kharaxel."

[White-Jet]

While this was going on, Berbil Jade stood in one of the rooms, peeking out just enough to see what was going on and watch as the group that rushed out to intercept the second alarm almost didn't believe the new intruder before one of the robots stopped them and confirmed he was telling the truth.

She didn't know much about what was going on aside from what Berbil Joe remembered up until being knocked out after being controlled by an evil entity called "Tron".  She wanted to tell Joe what she heard, but considering her lack of familiarity with the goings on prior to her arrival, she figures she'd get a little more insight on the situation and follows after the group as they make their way back to Sickbay 2, intending to stay outside so as not to be a bother to anyone that might still be recovering inside.

Berbil Joe, meanwhile, eventually wanders into the Rec Room, having noticed from one of the computers in the command room that one of the holodecks was acting up.  He decides it was the best way to distract himself from the traumatic memory he suffered earlier and heads over to the affected holodeck to begin repairs.
