Kyukioh watched the Gaddess' backward response, prowling forward as it watched the dancing spear with mild interest. A cat, after all, was still a cat. Its tail flicked out, and caught the edge of Shurouga's arm, causing it to recoil. The Outsider grit his teeth within the cockpit, wondering for...

Gail waited, merely standing in the rain. As Jericho approached, his two wingmen walked forward under their umbrellas, passing him on either side as they wordlessly made their way into the camp. The young man stood, almost motionless, his stare vacant, before focusing on the man as he...

As James started to make his way towards the back of the train, he would have been reassured as there was a silent clunk under his feet. The train was starting to move - and quickly, as it started to pick up speed. The reason was immediately apparent, as the world seemed to grow darker. The...

Slayer Two closed the gap on wings of fire. The Alt slowed, and much as D'Arcy suspected - its database registered it as little more than a customized Gespenst - Well within expected parameters. The pilot couldn't help but smirk - that red coloring, sadly, would hide the blood from its pilot...

It's as I thought. Sure enough, his suspicions were correct. She wept, she howled, her aura bloomed like a poison lily, caustic and wild, whipping at the world around her. All the while, Kusanagi stood unflinching, unbowed by the display of emotion, as tall and proud as ever - even so, his...

"Now you have my attention." An angel. I get to kill an angel. It knew something. The knowledge lodged itself at the forefront of Tilde's brain like a thrown ice-pick. Already she could feel it boiling up inside her - that murderous impulse, clawing at her guts, rising to the forefront of her...

As the rain ran around Shevirat, a passive cloud of white noise that overlaid the distant hubbub and ambient noises of the camp, his senses might have pricked up. The muffled, good natured conversations in the distance were dying down. People were trailing off in mid sentence without being able...

"What right do you, who has callously shed the name her parents gifted her, have to ask that of me?" The pointedness of his speech cut through the air, and in that second one could almost sense the ambient temperature between the two of them drop into the freezing. Kusanagi opened his eyes...

In response to Remedy's question, the Flauros seemed to puff itself up a bit, its brass head rising as its back straightened, twin jets of steam issuing forth from its nostrils. "Yep, that was me!" Bragged the leader - only for a Drone to quickly add, timidly: "But boss... It was those other...

September 7th, OE 102 Bern, Switzerland Jericho Faction Advanced Forces Temporary Camp Outskirts 8:18 PM So far, so good. As the Jericho Faction had made its way north in parallel with the efforts of its equally ambitious Lunar-sympathizing rival in the east, there had been surprisingly...

"Your concern for me is touching, Baron. It pleases me to see that there are still those with honor among our people." Ashford seemed humbled, bowing his head slightly with gratitude as he listened. He made no motion to stop the Baron from leaving, only listening to her words, before...

Oh, Lord. Tilde felt the breath in her lungs turn to ice, as if all the air in the cockpit had been sucked out, as the vapors around the sword suddenly flared - and then died. On the horizon, glimmering gold, was... was something. An aura, deep and rich, like the radiance of the sunlight...

Within the train, Sullivan nodded at James. For now, he needed to depend on Selene's brother, and the strength of the Sphere-wielder. To say that the arcane relic made him uneasy would have been an understatement, but at least for the time being he didn't have any choice. Were it only that such...

Pi pi pi... The tension in the air was thick as a knife - but, as words clattered in over the intercom, William's eyebrows rose slightly. Not exactly the reception he had been expecting. At length, the barrel was raised, and the rifle slung over the Electron Knight's shoulder as it flew from...

"Thank you, Sir D'Arcy, Miss Johanna... All of you." A surprising round of reassuring voices went up as the Director scanned the room, causing him to bow his head in gratitude. There was a certain kind of... firmness to his voice, an underlying current of inflexible timbre that lent it a kind...

"Ascalon." Tilde's eyes seemed to gleam for a moment as Roman regarded her steed. She darted forward, craning her head into his field of view, with the silver skull-faced Super in the background. "A machine doesn't need to be glorious." She explained, wagging a finger in his face. "If it's...

The sound of running water filled the bathroom. It wasn't enough to drown out the pounding in her head, like hammers raining against the inside of her skull. Tilde Curtaine watched her own blood circling the drain, hunched over the sink, the taste of her own blood filling her mouth. She knew...

August 28th Armored Train "Pelegri" West Siberian Plain En route to Germany The rattling of the traincar around them would have made anyone a little nauseous, but after a little while? It wasn't so bad. It was definitely a far sight better than the rattling the orbital forces were taking, so...

September 18th, OE 102 Citadel City, Perindor Perindor Citadel Garden The hour was late. A cool breeze filtered through the gardens of Perindor, past the bridge, the only sound being the distant hooting of owls, the chirping of crickets, and the gentle babble of a stream. A man sat cross...
