*[i]Meanwhile...[/i]* Mordric: Shakal, are the preparations for the Test Subjects ready? Shakal: [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/ef/8f/95/ef8f9568f035daa2898278a09d014534.jpg[/img] Correct, Lord. Ako and Nire are fully awakened. The others... Not so much. They are near their true potential, though. Mordric: hmm... With Ako and Nire awakened, that should be more than sufficient. Alert all of the troops, war has begun. Shakal: Yes, my Lord. *starts to head a different direction* Mordric: wait. Shakal: yes, Master? Mordric: you have served me well. For your success, you will be rewarded handsomely. Shakal: may I ask with what, master? Mordric: not with what, but with whom. Shakal: ... It couldn't be possible... You've found him....? Harlock betrayed his team for the sake of a fight to relive his glory days, just as planned. He's in the Vornu Solar System. He's all yours. Shakal: ..... Thank you, master.. *walks away* Mordric: ....such a shame that shinji has to die, I really did love that boy... *reverts to her true form, that of kirina* He was my favorite, he could've been so much more than what he is... I really don't want to kill him... *thinks* ... Perhaps, there is another way.... but David must die for that to work, and with Ma'at as powerful as she is, that could pose a problem... ... Wait, perhaps I could try and find that necromancer looking fellow, what was his name... *looks for a file* ...ah, that's right... Graveny... *closes the file, reverts to her male form, and he sits on the throne in the middle of the room, staring down at the planet where the main hideout is* ..this should be fun.
