The one Phantom leader had grabbed a hold of a ledge a bit down from the window. The hit on his chest smoked slightly, the blaster burning away the outer layer of his armor. I'm really starting to detest that man... He pulled himself up a bit untill he was just below the shattered window. He pulled a grenade out from his vest and thumbed the activation tab. Then he vaulted through the window, landded, tossed the grenade, and sprung at Raf'el. The grenade started hissing, and the nerve gas that other Phantoms in the city were using spewed out into the hall. The leader grabbed Raf'el by the shirt, and dragged him back with suprising quickness. The deadly airborn poisons filled the hall while the leader dragged Raf'el back into cover, all the while calling a friend.
"La mort? It's Black. Get a ship out here now. One of the Lords is hurt."
"Roger that. I will be there in a few minutes."
With him safe, he unlimbered his assault rifle again and fired the rest of his clip into the hall, making the air sing with deadly hornets of lead. The Chancellor had wisely dissapeared as soon as the grenade hit, leaving Alpha alone in the hall filling with nerve gas and bullets.
This is the real true story of rock and roll; it was not about anything more then, how to live your life, as a gangster, in sartorial splendor, and turning the world into a place where normality would never return again...- Malcolm McLaren
Alpha awoke to gas and the singing of bullets overhead, he crawled to a near by Room, one of the senators offices, and noticed that She was there, waiting there quietly, her weapon kept forward.....
Sephiroth:So,Major.....you wish to join the rest of these fools, to die for nothing but to give your knowledge to me?
Major Alpha: Kristy, I once looked up to you, as did many people in Sirrus, Why are you doing this?
Sephiroth: Because I intend to youse the Knowledge of every living thing in Sirrus To achieve my Dream, To ride the Darkness of Space, To visit all its wonders, and I will bring my children along with me, they where Slaves to others but no longer, now We are the masters, Not you, or anyone else is going to stop us.
Alpha shook his head
Major Alpha: So all those dreams of Peace, of unity, all for nothing?
Sephiroth: I will bring peace, when everyone is in the Promise land, all will have happyness, and bliss, when you die I will take all your Wisdom to further the Familys goal..
She grinned, in an instant her sword ran through his chest and impailed him on the wall, the force was so great that the Wall shatter, lunging him outside, when he opened his eyes he was still impailed, but hanging off the side of the building
Sephiroth: I will see you soon my Freind, and together we will find peace!
With that she ripped out her sword, Alpha began a free fal from One hundred storys up as he fell nomad fighters wizzed past chasing Defenders and patriots..........

*OOC: Guys, keep this *REALLY* in-character... Since when did people have force powers in Sirus? Never.. Dab has powers granted to him by his spieces, sam inherited them.. My character's inherited powers like Sam has, except he can control them much better... Come on please... don't make this ridiculous.*
Watching the news reports from his talon, he looked down.
Kristy... what have you done....
Kristy... hear me... I know you can hear me.. you must stop this...
Back on Manhattan.. the chancellor heard the voice in her head.
Who is this? And how do you know my real name...
Who i am is of no importance now. What is important is that this isn't you. Stop this now...
No. I will not stop till my dream has been achieved. My children will follow me...
Don't make me kill you.... sister....

She stood there looking out the hole in the wall that Alpha Had made, listening to this Distant, yet familiar voice.
You don't need to do this, just stop and we can figure out another way..
Sephiroth: heh, your lying, i have no brother, he was killed just like everyone else.....
She watched as the liberty navy landed Battalions of Marines onto the Landing pads all around the building, the majority had landed on the Primary landing zone on the opposite side of the city.
Sephiroth: You see how they flee and panic, its disgusting, they say there so Advanced, but there not, true power lies in the Promise Land, where Technollogy has no meaning, Some call it the Force others call it gifts, the Cetra call it the Lifestream.
She grinned and walked to the Roof of the building.
Sephiroth: Whatever you call it, in the End its what controls our destinys, and I can wrap it around the tip of my finger, those you cannot feal it are only fuel for the ones who can, Wether its evolution or not, I am changing and seeing things how noone has ever seen Life, let me show you!
Stop it, you don't know what your......UGGGhhh
Johnathans mind was flooded with images, memories of all those lives she had touched already, Hundreds of images, Knowledge in its rawest form, then in an instant he was seeing through her eyes, the swirling of the Life around everything, like blue rivers flowing and intert weaving each other, but around every human, there was nothing, just emptyness
Sephiroth: You see now, there a Virus, aplague on the Galaxy, now you see why the nomads want them gone, Humans are only capable of killing, murder and death, they have no destiny, only to repeat what they always do.
Impossible, people have hearts, fealings there is something to the human race, there is!
She smiled, " Believe what you want, but I no longer relate to these flawed things, and thus like a parasite, they will be purged, she lowered her hand to the Direction of the Grouping of Naval Marines.....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Planet Manhattan, Newyork system, High Orbit
" This is the Liberty battleship Mt Saint Helens, our Engines are off line and our turrets have been destroyed, where Drifting and in need of repairs "
Newark Station: Confirmed, we will send a Tug out to you once the fighting has ended, please stand bye, wait, LNS Mt Saint Helens, your drifting into the planets atmosphere, please use your......
" AHHHHHHHHH TO LATE, GRAHHHHHHHHHH "
The battleship plummited twords the City, being pulled by an unknown force
Sephiroth: You see, all there capable of is death, so thats what I shall bring them, then add there knowlege to mine, and I will be much closer to My dream of peace.
She looked up and watched as the Liberty battleship plumated towards the ground.
NO YOU CAN'T, STOP THIS RIGHT NOW KRISTY
Sephiroth: How many thousands are on bored a Ship like that, a thousand maybe, even two, ohh the fireworks will be amazing
She grinned as she tracked it falling to the ground, the screams of women and children, everyone as It collided with the ground, and instantly exploded, a huge fusion explosion erupted as a White firewall spread from the impact sight, Insinarating everything as it wen, before it died twenty miles from the crash, she could feal the heat on her face.
Sephiroth: What better way to purge a parasite then by fire, ehh brother
Johnathon was speechless.....

Alpha landed one something and groaned in protest.
Keiran: Get in here! He said as he pulled Alpha into the second seat.
He started flying away from the planet half-dead passenger behind him.
Keiran: Here is a tip, Let Dab deal with the supernatural people. Just hold on, we will be at Buffalo soon, they can fix you up. The Ableben should be here in a day or so.
Alpha: Rafel was here as well.
Keiran: Finally, some good news.
Alpha started a chuckle that turned into a choking cough.
Keiran: Hey hold on, you die and Dab will kill me.
Keiran: Here are the nomads hold on.
Alpha could faintly feel the sharp turns and spins the ship was doing through the battlefield, but the front seat preventing him from seeing what was actually happening. He could see countless nomad fighters flying all around, some slaughtering the local population, some engaging Navy ships. Suddenly there was a circle of light around the ship and it took a minute for Alpha to realize they had entered the tradelane.
Keiran: Alright just a couple more minutes until we get to Buffalo.
************************************
Dab: Ah so thats who it is.
Dab had been wondering who it was that he had been sensing out there, the one who had been even more powerful than Kristy. But though he could find out who she was "talking" to he couldn't figure out what she was saying, or his responses.
The comm speaker in his room crackled.
Captain Neimann: Sir we are about to arrive at New Berlin.
Dab: Very well I'll head up to the bridge. I want a request for an audience with Admiral Kreig the minute we are in range.
Captain Niemann: Yes sir.
************************************
Raf'el's head jerked back in pain.
Phantom: Sir are you alright?
But he didn't answer the Phantom. His head continued to spasm in pain and his mouth was open in a silent scream.
Due to the unexpectedness and vastness of death he hadn't been able to prepare his mind against the flood of emotions, and pain that was flashing through his mind due to the crash of the Liberty Dreadnaught on Manhatten's surface. Eventually his head motions ceased and he fell back into unconscionceness leaving the Phantom with a look of confusion on his face.
Phantom: What the hell was that?
But Raf'el remained asleep not hearing the man's query. Distantly he could hear the whine of a shuttle's engines. He decided to try to stop thinking about it and worked on getting Raf'el to the window and onto the shuttle.
Quietly a Bactrian transport landed near Raf'el and the Phantom Commander, unnoticed in the confusion. The docking ramp opened, "Get in! We're getting the hell out of here!" the pilot called from the cockpit, "Your scheduled pilot was unable to make it!"
As Keiran's ship arrived at Buffalo the Major was taken to the infimary. There after a minor operation for internal bleeding and some stitches. After waking up an hour after the operation the Major was cleared to go and he and Keiran both boarded their ships.The Majors ravenclaw had just finished being repaired by the Rouges best mechanics team since his journey to New york in the first place. He got in and both he and Keiran undocked from the station.
Keiran: Major where are we going?
Major Alpha: Dab and the Ableben are making a pit stop at New Berlin. We are going to meet them there.
He opened up a comm chanell to Nightfall.
Major Alpha: Admiral Nightfall this is Alpha. Keiran and I are going to meet with dab at New Berlin. Sir i advise that you try and get some ships together and go to New York through the Delta route. However when you arrive I advise you to wait at the Alaska jump Hole until the Dab and any other ships that might be coming come through the Texas Jump Hole. You would have no chance if you attacked on your own sir.
Nightfall: Understood Major. Ill see what I can do. Oh and i heard about your little run in with the chancellor, are you alright?
Major Alpha: Yes sir. medics here at buffalo have stitched me up and I should be fine.
Nightfall: Good to here. Nightfall out.
With that the Major and Keiran went through the Texas Jump Hole and headed for Hamburg.
I know where it is Cortana, I just have to find it. - Commodore Puddles
"This is TG escort-one to all fighters. If you guys can give me some cover I'll try and get as many people out as I can." I flick the comm off and sit back.
"All guns are manned and ready." the second officer reported flipping through the contact list.
"Not that'll do us much good." the navigator muttered nervously activating the scanners for the umpteenth time since they had jumped in.
"We're not soulless murders so we'll try and help, ok?" I growl.
The Phantom leader nodded to the pilot and picked up Raf'el.
"Time to go, Lord!" He made a running leap and landed in the cargo-bay of the Bacterian.
"Punch it!" The ship accellerated away.
After making sure that the Lord was as comfortable as possible in one of the beds, he made his way to the cockpit.
"Thanks. I wonder what happened to La Mort... Ah well. I'm afraid I don't recognize you. New here?"
***
The AW fleet arrived in New Berlin to find a Gunboat and a wing of Wrath's moping up what must have been a relativly large Hessian force. The gunboat was instantly recognized as the gunboat Feuer; the lone gunboat that did more damage then usually allowed.
"Attention AW fleet, this is the Buro der Marineintelligenz Gunboat 'Feuer.' Deactivate your weapons systems and your shields now, or Home Fleet will be mobilized against you. Then you can tell me why you've brought such a large fleet into Rhinland."

As the dust cloud settled over the city, ships could still be seen dogfighting throughout the Towering sky scrapers.
Now for phase two, to bring together all thats left of the Touched on this planet.
She closed her eyes, and was quiet for a moment, then a smal grin cmae over her face, " There you are, Come my brothers and sisters, let us all meet for the first time. "
There was a moment of silence then she opened her eyes. Sephiroth walked to the Edge of the roof and looked down, there in the crowd of panicked people came a dozen or so Random people, Familys with children, men and women, all slowly walking to the entrace of the Senate building
She stepped off the building an plumited twords the ground, ten feet before she stoped, and hovered there.
" Hello, all of you, this is a happy moment in our lives, a time to meet family for the first time, for you all are related. "
The small crowd looked at each other, " Listen, I will make you all understand in a breif moment, just open your minds and you will see the Promise land "
Sephiroth help up her hand to the crowd, slowly energy rippled around them, and seep into them. All at once there eyes changed to a Bright green, and there skin went pale.
" You see it now don't you, the Land we where promised so long ago, come with me and I will take you to it. " She smilled, the crowd nodded in agreement and began to follow her in almost a transe, just then a Officer ran up to them.
Officer: What in the hell do you guys think your doing shes the Attacker on the Senate, get away for your own saftey!
A Small Girl looked sharply twords the Officer.
Girl: She is Family and we always look after each other!
She yelled as she jump six feet in the air right in front of him, spiraled around and kicked him square in the side of the head. With a bone crushing sound he flew in the air almost ten feet, until he collided with the Door of a near by car, it crumpled in, and the window shattered.
The little Girl landed and took her mothers hand." Lets go, we have much to do " Sephiroth said. Moments later they where flying away in a stolen ryno, out of Manhattan.
