Blazermate kept herself an arms distance away from the bee lady she had freed and friend hearted. While she had seen others do this friend heart thing, Blazermate still had her nagging suspicions. Still, she made sure the bee lady was at least able to move. With a pulse of her cleansing protocol, she woke Sectonia up, keeping her shield arm at the ready. Dell meanwhile gave Ratchet a nod, offering him a beer from his chair, his work finished and his buildings not needing much in the way of maintenance. 

Sectonia, meanwhile, was unbelievably groggy, as one would be after being released from stasis then knocked out with a friend heart. The first thing she noticed as she awoke was the dull throbbing of pain everywhere, although that was slowly draining away. The second thing was some... evil tree creature under her. She blinked a couple times registering that fact before hopping up into the air with a start, pulling out one of her swords again. It was at this point she saw a weird beam coming from herself into some... What was that thing? It was clearly healing her of some injuries, as she felt her vitality return, but... It was such a mish mash of parts. 

Sectonia's confusion could be read all over her face about the situation. Blazermate meanwhile raised her shield arm in anticipation of another strike, which never came. [color=92278f]"What ARE you?"[/color] Sectonia said, putting her sword down. It was at this point Sectonia collected herself and looked at her surroundings. She was in a weird building, one that looked like the start of some kind of spire or something. She then took inventory of all the others who were around here seemingly paying her little mind. The first thing noticed was that most of the creatures here, at least the ones not in tubes, were humanoid in shape. One looked like a rough boy with a bit of darkness to him, another was some kind of... fox thing? but oddly stretched and lanky leaning on an oversized wrench, another metal robot standing next to him with an oversized head, but not nearly as odd looking as the thing healing herself. She saw a shimmering... construction worker lounging in a chair? There were other various beasts and people about, all moving to a red circle of light emitting from a metal... thing... disappearing in a flash.

[color=0072bc]"I'm a medabot, -mate model. You don't need to worry about anyone here attacking you, we're all friends here."[/color] Blazermate said, gesturing for Sectonia to move away from Daxter. Sectonia noticed this, and scoffed. [color=92278f]"You may have healed me, but I don't need to listen to such a creature as you."[/color] Even so, she did look down at Daxter who was coming to, and did skirt away from the ugly tree, weasel... thing. Out of everyone here, he was by far the ugliest of the bunch. Even the mish mash 'medabot' had a bit of class to it compared to this thing. 

[color=0072bc]"So... My name is Blazermate. Who are you?"[/color] Blazermate said, putting her shield arm down and looking at Sectonia, noting how she sort of reminded her of Bowser. Sectonia looked at the medabot with one eye, getting a good look at her. After a bit, she said. [color=92278f]"You may address me as Queen Sectonia, the goddess of beauty."[/color] Blazermate couldn't help but giggle a bit at the pretentiousness, but then Bowser was just a teleport away. [color=0072bc]"I don't think anyone in our party will call you all that. But Queen Sectonia or Sectonia will work. We have a King Bowser in the Land of Adventure. You two would love each other."[/color] Blazermate said, being casual and ending with a bit of sarcasm. Hearing this talk of a 'king', Sectonia scoffed. [color=92278f]"I highly doubt that."[/color] She then relaxed a bit, asking. [color=92278f]"So, where am I. This isn't Floralia."[/color]

[color=0072bc]"We're in the Dead Zone. Galeem, you'll see it in a bit, is a big ball of light that kind of... from what I understand... destroyed everything in a big flash of light then remade everything into its own world. I think we're going to head to relax in the Land of Adventure, which while it doesn't have any cool demon parts like this."[/color] Blazermate said, gesturing to her shield arm of the suffering, the shield having its tongue lull out. [color=0072bc]"It controls zombies. Its so cool! Although not the prettiest of parts, its really strong! Anyway, yeah, wanna come help us here?"[/color] Blazermate said, pulling the shield's tongue back in and looking at it questioningly.

Sectonia thought for a bit. A creature that destroyed everything in a flash of light? Yes, she did remember a bright light before waking up here. Such a creature, such power... she could remake a world of pure beauty! [color=92278f]"I suppose your group could use more beauty. Especially if more of you look like this thing."[/color] Sectonia said, pointing at Daxter. [color=92278f]"Very well, your Queen will deal with this... Galeem."[/color] Blazermate clapped in joy. [color=0072bc]"Alright. There is more information you should know before we get started."[/color] Blazermate said.

[color=0072bc]"So... You can see my parts no doubt. You can get cool parts too! Daxter there got a part, although I don't like what he looks like either. It was this MASSIVE tree thing that vomited all sorts of nasty stuff. Anyway, if you defeat someone under Galeems control, you can either do what I did and friend heart them."[/color] Blazermate said, pulling out another friend heart and holding it in her hand before putting it back into herself. [color=0072bc]"To free them from his control. Or you could take your battle reward and get a part... err... their spirit. You can take it into yourself for more power and get a part look to you, like me and Daxter and Ratchet there."[/color] Blazermate said, pointing at Ratchet. [color=0072bc]"Or crush it and get a weapon or something. Or you can make it your friend and summon them when you need their abilities, like Dell over there."[/color] Blazermate continued, pointing at the Engineer whos time was almost up, Dell chugging his beer and having a grand old time watching everyone enjoy his teleporter. [color=0072bc]"Three was another thing, but I forgot what it was. Anyway, you'll see people who are under Galeem's control as they'll have red eyes. They wont outright attack you, some you can chat with just fine! But yeah, thats how you know."[/color]

Sectonia rubbed her chin, absorbing all this knowledge. [color=92278f]"I see... Well, I'll have a much more refined taste for these, 'spirits' than you and your allies there."[/color] Sectonia said, noting at how Blazermate both detested Daxter, and sort of regretted losing her beauty for more power, something Sectonia could understand but wouldn't condone herself. Extending one of her floating hands, Sectonia shook hands with Blazermate, Blazermate making sure to use her healing hand as her Suffering arm seemed to be acting up again with no zombies to control anywhere nearby. With Sectonia joining the party, Blazermate got to healing her up all the way before moving to Daxter. Sectonia was relieved that the aches and pains were disappearing, although she didn't really show it on her face.

A loud smashing sound followed by falling glass could be heard as Jak opened up one of the other tubes, getting ready to attack them if they were hostile like Sectonia was. Blazermate and Sectonia turned to take a look at the strange jellyfish creature Jak had freed, Blazermate scanning it while she put her beam on Jak, while Sectonia got her swords out much like how Jak had his gun ready.
