The party descended the ladder while Vlaew made a fool of himself and fell after loosing his grip. Thankfully the Lylock managed to fly down and grab him before he injured himself. After scolding him she was quickly cutts short by the sound of gunfire.
---------------------
Inside the dark building the plasma energy burned throgh the assaulting robots which quicly made a retreat, in the back they began rappidly assembling something. This was greeted with more weapons fire from the proto specialist, he was then shocked to see a device in back turn on and light up, which started acting like a magnet toward the plasma shots fired. Every time he let loose a round it traveled toward a swidling green votex which then absorbed the shot. Wires started traveling across the floor and atatching to some of the damaged machines, they started repairing themselves at imcomprehendable speeds. Suddenly the walls of the building began to crack and more metalic minions burst forth from the windows.
----------------------
At this time the others who were climbing down the ladder reached the ground and turned toward the direction that the local townspeople were running from... as their screams and yells grew faroff the city became quiet... They stared in the direction... the air was still... then suddenly they heard the screaming sounds of two men running for their lives, one lookied like a kitsune proto specialist and the other was a general military specialst with glowing cracks in his skin... a magma genasi?
-------------------------------
As you start running you notice a large party of other-wordly assasins from hundred earths, you spot severals mercs and a lylock, you stop in your tracks and try to catch your breath.
------------------------------
"What are you doing here?" The lylock barks at the strange men who are now panting infront of them.

----Ok The two parties are now one----

Before she could get an answer from the over-worked kitsune or genasi the sounds of a colapsing building echoed and dust flooded through the street.

There was a pause as the dust settled... then, the sound of twisting metal as a 20 foot tall beast lifted up above the nearby thatched roof buildings and began to scream a rapturephage battlecry.

"So they're all here."
a man in the alley spoke... Some people turned to look at him while others were more concentrated on the huge multi-eyed, shape-shifting metal beast that looked like it was about to charge at them.
"Eakens... Vlaew... BXR64... You are looing for one man... to kill... Sanjeet... Keal... looking for a man to give a message... Ah... And one who is without... time... itself... oh dear... I'm afraid that some of you are about to die unless you do something about... the constuct... the controlling construct scourge of worlds... I can feel it... everywhere... growing closer..."
The man's voice seemed haunting, and sent chills down several of the partys' spines.
"And... there are two others... who are nearby... one who has yet to be born... and one who has yet to be freed... oh and Veric..."

A man standing on top of a nearby roof leaped down, he appeared to be an ancient specialist, he was weilding a shiny katana.

"How'd you know I was even here? who are you strange man?"

"Please give me just a moment"

the large machine began to slowly move through the street, slittering like a giant snake as it pushed the nearby buildings aside like sand castles on a beach.

The man stood infront of the machine... pulled a staff from out of nowhere, orbited it around a few times and then weilded it in both hands. he Struck the end of it into the coblestone ground quickly, and the earth began to tremble... the air started orbiting around him and the ground broke free... he was now levitating into the air...

"Your weapons... strike it now!"

Those with projectil weapons began to fire at the machine, their shots flew around the man now floating higher into the air on his chunk of street. His ricepaper hat flew off revealing horribly screwed up blood red hair... his dark blue kimono started to tear and break off, revealing his heavily battle-scared body beneath. He started chanting in what sounded like latin, the shots which fired only bounded off the hull of the large rapturephage mecha.

"there's only one thing to do" the nanomage barked, and his tiny machines began to swirl around him, and fire appeared in his hands... "take this!!!" he threw two balls of fire at the large machine and the flames spread and grew around it, it seemed to be doing some damage but then hundreds of tiny cooling vents opened and liquid nitrogen jetted out of the machines pores, extinguishing the flames and causing it to snow.

The Lylock then southed "Out of the way!" she ran directly toward the machine past everyone else and then let loose an electromagnetic storm.

The machine screamed in what sounded like pain as the electrical bolts of energy traveled out of the Lylock's body and into it and all nearby buildings, causing windows to shatter, stone walls to split open, and a crater to form beneath her feet. Immediatley after the sparks began to fly the man on the stone up in the air lifted his staff into the sky, lightening rained down fromt he heavens and struck him repeatedly, he then pointed at the mahine as if he was directlying the lightenings striking path and bolt upon bolt began to strike the large machine causing parts of it to shatter and break off, like a tidal wave of metal the machine broke apart and then crashed into the street. The man jumped down, helped up the lylock and they ran from the metalic wave which was now fillling the streets, the rest of the party ran too as the machines broke apart and died, the sound was absolutley horrific, like 10,000 car wrecks simultanously. Finally the sound stopped only followed by a few clinking noises of still rolling parts in the street. They turned around and saw that the rapture phage has been completley shut down from the electromagnetic blows. The local people slowly aproached and aplauded the outsiders for saving their town. It wasn't before long before they were paraded through the streets and found themselves at rest in a local inn for the night.

Veric Jenth looked at the trange man who had somehow managed to put his ricepaper hat back on and repair his kimono.

"you know Veric... you were sent here for the same purpose as the mercenaries... but not for the reasons of that woman that saved your lives... remember that every action you make affects the world... and the future... do not let that confuse you..." Without waiting for a response he headed over to another table where the others were sitting.

"You performed well, i have not seen magics like that in my lifetime..." the strange man said...

"Well um... thanks..." The lylock woman replied.

"I know why you're here... you're all looking for the same man..." he said then looking up at the whole party...

"even Veric over there... care to join us?"

Veric with a grunt went to join the others and they gathered around the strange man.

"I am of this world... you... however... I know are not... but we do not want to change the ways of thinking of these people... I however am aware of many things... things including your... hive mind..."

"Who are you?" They all asked at once... a few asked "What are you..."

"I am Reverance... and I am gifted with... sight beyond sight... I am a deviner... and if you are looking for some one... then your best bet is a diviner..."

They all nodded at this concept though a few were skeptical.

"If you want to find Masakari Kai, or Shinokorosha..."

These names startled everyone...

"I will require a special device... which will allow me to find them for you... can you assist me in this matter?"

(can you?)

--------Meanwhile----------

Kaerban waited for the voice to respond... it barked back with assertiveness...

"Money is irrelivant... what I can give you is power... limitless power beyond your wildest dreams!!! All I ask is that you willingly give me the rights... to your vessel..."
