[color=9966cc]"Hmph..."[/color] Juno put the thing aside, dressing her usual [url=http://i.imgur.com/nrGTrwk.jpg]casual attire[/url] in place of it. After listening to the whole briefing with speaking as much a word, mostly because she was eating a pack of strawberry Pocky that she bought on the lower dimensions, Juno nodded. [color=9966cc]"We just have to do as that person said, huh? Nom nom~ Fine."[/color] At teleport later and Juno would find herself before Hohenheim's castle, listening to the Alchemist's swagger. At least Hoho had being considerate enough to get a ticket for an all-paid date for Juno and 'that person', so there was no reason for the Spatial Valkyrie to get bored and just go back home to play her video games. [color=9966cc]"Ok, but you better not be lying."[/color] Juno yelled, knowing that Hohenheim would be able to listen to her well enough. [color=9966cc]"We are kinda like one another, Hoho and I. There's somethings I can't tell you. Nom, nom~"[/color] Juno replied to Omega, after the ghostly cowboy approached her, all the while devouring the supply of treats that was loaded on Miyu's mecha, since no one else looked like they wanted anything. Though, as a hint of wat she was talking about, Juno pointed to the tornado like clouds behind the castle. If Omega had good eyes (or any eyes), he would be able to see faint wisps of what looked like the body of a huge (as in dimension sized huge) serpent coiling around the Nexus borders as if it was the only thing keeping the chaotic matter in place. He could make of that hint what he wanted, though. [color=9966cc]"I'll be back."[/color] Juno pushed a pack of potato chips on Omega's hand and went after Miyu when she noticed the angel going dangerously close to the edge of the world. [color=9966cc]"You don't want to fall down there. You can't fly and all that, you'll fall to the void forever, even if you die."[/color] Juno kicked a rock down the edge as she lifted Miyu by the scruff of her neck, dragging the Angel back with a hand as the rock was slowly being unmade by the power of the spatial vortex. [color=9966cc]"If you do anything dangerous again I'll hit you over the head. Nom, nom~"[/color] The Spatial Valkyrie warned Miyu, not unlike a mother chastising an unruly child. [color=9966cc]"So, what are you all waiting? The door is beginning to close. Nom, nom~"[/color] The purple-haired warrior asked as she resumed eating the chips she left with Omega.

The orders of the High Queens had already been downloaded and assimilated by her processing core and before she could even take a step out of her stasis pod, she activated the teleport program that would take her to the fortress of the Alchemist of Genesis. The prototype listened to every word from the Alchemist, processing every bit of information that could give the edge over her foes. For this battle the Machina were severely outnumbered and outgunned, anything that they could use at their advantage was needed to be seized immediately. [color=dodgerblue]"I'll call a card, then. Targeted at the Angels of Heaven."[/color] Ni-Mu said in a low monotone. Considering the information she had loaded about Tarot cards, the most sensate option was to have it target at an enemy, given the odds. Putting trust at their foes was a stupid move as well and, finally, the Angels were the ones with a number advantage, plus Eclipse Princess on their side. Logic dictates this course of action. [center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/i6fLcHF.png[/img] [/center] [color=gold]"Heh, heh. So much for trust others' good will, eh?"[/color] Hohenheim quipped as she shuffled the deck before drawing the card [b][url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/rolls/1553]V - The Hierophant[/url][/b] and discarding it. [color=gold]"How convenient, The Hierophant, to the Holy Whores. Hahaha! Well now, a double folded blessing within a curse. Protected by the Divine and at the same time restricted by it. I guess that's luck for the Angels, then. This card would force whoever drew it to obey one of Deva's orders to the best of their ability, in exchange for a blessing of her choice that will last until the end of the game. Considering that the Angels already obey her no mater what, that's just a free buff for their team."[/color] [color=gold]"Now then, O Mighty Emperor of the Heavens. Make your choices, what orders and what boons do you have for your vassals? Try to not exaggerate too much, because they must balance each other, by the way."[/color] Hohenheim's voice reached all the way to Deva's chamber, who got informed of the conditions of the call from the Alchemist just as Hohenheim spoke. [center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/i6fLcHF.png[/img] [/center] Ni-Mu ignored the botched draw and began walking to the gates at a normal run pace. That was a game of odds, naturally something like this could happen. The only thing that mattered now was reaching the Gate before the others did and try to take some of her enemies down with an ambush on the narrow passage as soon as she had the chance.
