A rift opened somewhere in Element City, sometime after all of the traffic through it finally died down. Away from the vortexes that continued to lower from the skies, away from the carnage of what was left of New Life, and away from the rebuilding efforts to not get in its way, a lone figure floated away from the rift, which quickly closed behind it.
Laplace floated forward, casting its yellow eyes onto the building-shrouded horizon of Element City. It saw the slagheap where the volcano rose up from the ground, and could even see Bayside in the distance. A byproduct of its most recent meals, power radiated off of Laplace visibly, a gold aura emanating from the wizard as it gazed the skyline, glanced about, and considered the space around it.
Zzt . . . zzzt . . . tz
What it was doing, or even what it was saying, was difficult to discern. It reached out with one arm and molded energy together into a small black diamond that it affixed to its chest, weaving together small symbols into the air that then transformed into physical items at its behest. Squinting its eyes, it quickly chanted so that an entire wall of these strange symbols had been formed in an instant, which whirled together to create a small soldier in front of it.
Evidently unimpressed with itself, it swiped away with one hand and the soldier disintegrated into the energy that created it, dispersing back into the golden waves that surrounded it. Upset, it turned around again, glaring at the sky, as if looking for something to direct its frustration at.
Zzt! Zzt, zzt, tz, zzzzt!

Coldjoe made his way through threw elemental city having gotten a warning of a disturbance. Thinking it was another Virus hoard. The militant ICE program went ran threw the streets in full kit. The strange thing to Coldjoe was he was unable to spot any virus which began to make him think his scanner was malfunctioning.
"Great the fire that I experienced while saving hostages and the multiple virus hoards has most likely caused my systems to fritz that's just great," he stated slightly annoyed.
rounding yet another corner Coldjoe would see a strange being making noises while staring at the sky. "You lost pal? I could direct you to the nearest safe area?"

It received no response from the individual that it knew was watching, waiting. The way it could view the world around it, now, it could watch as everything it understood changed. No wonder Le Mu was so upset when they approached it - it was constantly learning about a world that it had already memorized, and it could never rest. What should have been as easy as breathing was made difficult, and even now, Laplace had to view the world through her eyes. To wield the power of the individual that created it, Laplace felt strangely in awe, and yet also equally frustrated. What point was it, to be so familiar with the Wave World that she had created, if it were going to be taken from her?
As it considered its own thoughts, it detected a presence approaching. It wasn't anything too powerful at all, so Laplace ignored it until it was evident that the presence wasn't going to ignore it. Turning, the small wizard considered the individual, understanding its words, but had no desire to communicate back. With the maker's power, redesigning itself to speak was easy, but it was proud to still speak the old tongue.
Tzz. Zt, tzz, strz, Zzzztrzv. Laplace made a harsh buzzing noise in the direction of the individual, the gold aura that it emanated hopefully enough indication that it was powerful enough to protect and handle itself. While impossible to decipher, the way it swiped one of its sword-like arms in the direction of ColdJoe made it clear - it wanted to be left alone.

#s://i~imgur~com/xk3FBdj~png Also somewhere nearby, though perhaps a bit further by happenstance, there was another arrival. Though it wasn't so dramatic as a rift through time, space, reality, plot or whatever- it was flashy. But there was not just one individual, but several! The most noteworthy being- "The magmagical and fantastic Showman!" The noteworthy individual would interupt the narrator... Alongside him were some small beings that looked like a navi named Steve, but somehow much more simple. "Alright then Steve, you have your little outting but stay far away from that Serious Stuff happening over there," The obnoxious fellow would declare as he set up a folding chair and took a seat. "How many Jelly Beans that the fellow over there is going to be sneezed into oblivion?" He gestured with some kind of microphone-cane toward the other two. One of the aforementioned Steves made Steve Sounds in response. "I'll take that bet~" he offered the Steve some popcorn.

Coldjoe chuckled at the swipping of the sword like arm. Reaching over he attempted to give it a headpat. "Aw you are a adorable little creature." he said as his one glowing eye watched them.

Laplace felt as others entered into the space. The strange, static being was anything but small, easily standing as tall as the individual trying to talk with him, and finding him more insufferable by the moment. As the Navi approached him and held out one hand, Laplace side-stepped from the attempt, moving extraordinarily fast, the blink of an eye causing Laplace to be just out of place from where Coldjoe was reaching. It fixed one of its yellow eyes on Coldjoe, giving him a very firm glare, one of its arms having shifted into a dangerous spike. The waves on its back rippled and formed into tall spikes to show its own agitation, clearly unamused by the attempt.
"Zrrtrzvvzrts!" it whined again, a low, harsh buzzing drone that caused the air between it and Coldjoe to ripple slightly, its words holding authority. Whatever it was, it was unamused, and Coldjoe's interference with its day was not to be tolerated.
In a blur of movement, it created additional distance between itself and Coldjoe, as it moved further away in an instant. It turned its gaze back towards the sky, deciding to give the Navi one last chance to reconsider his attempt to treat Laplace like some base pet or virus.

#s://i~imgur~com/xk3FBdj~png "It appears he gets to live. We didn't specify if it was this instance or a moment from said instance that he got vaporized," Showman would remark to one of his Steves who would reply with an assortment of Steve Sounds. "No I'm not trying to get out of paying because I don't have the jelly beans on me. How dare you accuse me of such shenanigans. I have half a mind to call the whole thing off- but I won't!" Showman would argue with the Steve before taking his hat off and pulling out a bag of jelly beans, which was forked over as agreed upon only for the Steve in question to be descended upon by Jelly Bean hungry Steves.

The spikes of black and blue energy that made up its body shifted and quivered as it felt something at work, and felt a familiar strength enter and then quickly depart again. Laplace turned its attention to the horizon, seeing the colossus in the distance, and the figure that dashed towards it.
Not sure of what it should do, but knowing that it could help, Laplace turned its attention and, in a rivulet of golden waves, rocketed into the air, chasing after the other to join it part way . . .
[Laplace Exit]
