The scouts that the Alcamoth had were impressive, given how much of a map of the world they had in a relatively short amount of time. At the same time, Pit stared in confusion at the Koopa King before he yelped, [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"Yeah, it's Pit! And that is [i]not[/i] what happened!"[/color] Once everyone arrived Mewtwo went right into the briefing, starting with the good news. Steady progress on the guardians was great to hear. The Cadet peered at the image of Red Eye, feeling a small pang of jealousy. It looked big, dangerous, and monstrous - his favorite kind of enemy. Besides that, there was apparently a train system that could lead to all corners of the world. The Cadet raised his eyebrows in surprise. That would be incredibly useful in getting a lot of their force around quickly. They wouldn't have to put the onus on individuals to create passages for them either, like with Junior and his paintings. The Cadet couldn't wait for the Yellow Team's efforts to bear fruit so that he could check the place out himself. He held his comments until the end, as apparently the information to follow was more pressing. It was a lot of information regarding the mercenary teams, the Alcamoth itself, and of course the options for their next move. [color=salmon]"Hmmm."[/color] So where to head next? Honestly the Cadet's first thought aligned with Mewtwo's initial suggestion. [color=salmon]"So the Autumn Vale is right next door to Princess Peach's castle, and it's bordering three other regions. Seems like if we get a foothold there, it'd be for the best once we move into those areas,"[/color] he said. [color=salmon]"Then again, we can't exactly ignore a direct request for help."[/color] So far, it seemed that the group was leaning more towards journeying to Midgar. Kamek had some questions about the Dead Zone, which the Cadet awaited the answers to as well. If she was right on the zenny and they could just rush right to the area's boss, then he'd love to get a fifth win in for the Seekers as soon as possible. At that point, Pit jumped in. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"I wish it was that easy!" There's two things stopping us,"[/color] the boy angel said, holding up two fingers. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"After the explosion, the whole place was covered in, uh... [i]Timefall.[/i] Rain that makes everything it touches old. Doesn't matter if it's people, cars, whatever. So that's the first thing we'd have to deal with."[/color] His explanation was a little lacking so far, but it got the point across. He went on. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"The second thing are the ghost things - the beached things! We could get around the Timefall with magic, but the BTs are invisible, and if they catch you they'll make [i]another[/i] huge explosion. At least that's what Deadman said. And yeah, that was his actual name!"[/color] He paused to let out a little huff of air before his next statement. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"We're still working on a way to track them before we go back."[/color] He didn't bring up the BBs at all, what with his prior objection to using them. [color=lightgoldenrodyellow]"So yeah, that's the situation there."[/color] The Cadet scratched his head. [color=salmon]"Well that giggisux, but I guess the boss isn't going anywhere, right? As long as someone keeps an eye on it, we can head somewhere else first."[/color]
