*The Joes still being activated, immediately scanned the intruder, Maelxus. Upon noting no official records, they were programmed to determine him an intruder, and immediately surrounded. In an almost robotic tone, as if the speech program had yet to be fully initialized, one of the Joes spoke.*
Random Joe: You have intruded in a classified sector of the New Life Compound. You are to be placed under arrest, and have all memory related to this wing purged from your data banks....
*As they said this, one of the Joes motioned to cuff the already bound navi, to restrain his power further, allowing them to escort him to the holding cell to await Official trial.*
MEANWHILE....
*The select plenty Joes raised arms as Terra arrived, and, upon noting the power of the navi, raised arms at him, upon scanning no registration on him. Each Joe had their rifle aimed at various points of his body, all potential killshots.*
S.W.A.T Joe: Intruder! Begone from this room or we will be forced to fire!

*With the ONB forces set to open fire on him, Terra doesn't miss a beat. He raises his head and looks straight forward and gives his answer*
Terra: Priority override. Command rerouted to unit Terra. New priority; guardian detail. Potential threats in the immediate vicinity: all Navis save unit Mercurey. Do not fire unless fired upon, ensure peace-keeping operations among potential targets.

*As the command rang out, the Joes were motionless for a second...two...three...it appeared they were re-programmed after Terra's uprising to prevent this case. That is, until all of the Joes said in unison.*
Joe regime: Command authenticated, threats re-assessed....Threats present, readying arms, preparing to fire upon instigation...
*As the Joes complied, they re-aimed all of their weaponry at the surrounding people, even Iria, who had summoned them. Avoiding Mercury, one even raised its pistol to Suki's face, prepared to take action in case of the worst.*

Mercury was rather astounded, to see his commander appear after having been whisked away by the Samhien character, it was something he was definitely not expecting. However he quickly stood at a ready stance before his commander, before explaining what had happened in his abstinence.
Mercury: "Sir! Right.. After the sudden rip in dimensions that I had thought took all the others away, the creature that insigated the attack, Samhien, proceeded to take over Creamland for a time, before leaving. During this time, it was apparent that the Aegis units malfunctioned some way. With the suppression mechanisms down, the creature we observed began to stir. When Knightman instigated a reset of the Creamland network in order to reset it to its former state, the creature took advantage of this, inserting itself into the original state. Apparently, It took the form of a Mystery Data as it is called here. A navi named Syn accessed it, releasing it upon the net. Shortly after its appearance, a large group of navis attacked it. Its power has since increased because of this. The initial forces failed to destroy it and it adapted their abilities. Its current capabilities are unknown, and it seems to be making no further action."
Mercury took a breath for a moment before continuing to the issues at hand, starting by pointing at Phenoix.
Mercury: "This navi along with his followers appeared here at New Life seeking aid against the creature. From what I gather, they know of the risk it poses, and he seems to allude to a similar issue occurring some time ago."

*Terra shakes his head, an obvious look of pain on his face*
Terra: ....when that.... creature.... appeared, the others and I were sucked into some form of dimensional void and then sealed away. I was the only one strong enough to escape, it seems.
*Terra shakes his head.... this was not the time to mourn his lost men. That would have to come later*
Terra: Do we have a scan of the monster for data signature varification?[/b]

[bgcolor=3D3D3D] An exciting turn of events I suppose. ---
A familiar voice crept into the room and Iria's eyebrow met it with raised curiosity. Slowly but surely, the owner revealed himself to be none other than Terra. A pleasant, but... completely unbelievable surprise. Even as he explained to Mercury what had happened and how he had escaped Iria found herself less and less amused with new turn of events.
Her eyes widened as Mercury gave a.. curiously in. depth. summary of the situation. She let 'Terra' finish his rebuttal before tearing into the Stardroid. Completely disregarding the Joes, which were now less than humble. She spoke with an unfathomable malice.
You WORTHLESS sack of scrapmetal! You were going to waste OUR time when you CLEARLY already knew the entire scenario in such detail!? Please, humor me. Give me any excuse you could possibly have and more as why you would withhold information when you knew it would save us so much time.
Without pause she addressed Terra this time, though the malice in her tone was shredded altogether leaving only her normal serious demeanor. Prior to the intrusion... She waved her arm to Merril and company, who were still surrounded by the Joe squads. ...We had dispatched a team of Joes to investigate the area. Though Mercury might already have that data too. She sarcastically finished off. Clearly unamused.
However, since you're 'back from the brink' so to speak Terra. Maybe you'd find it a nice welcome home present to rip apart Ruin for what he apparently did to one of your men? Iria grinned at the thought.

*Terra looks back to Irea as she addresses Mercurey, allowing her to finish before giving a reply*
Terra: Mercury is a soldier under strict orders. The information that he has is confidntial and wouldn't have helpped at this point. He owes no excuse.
Alright. If you've already sent out the team to investigate, then we may as well make their sacrifice worth-while...
*Terra flips open the com-link on his wrist and identifies the unit of joes on its way to the scene, opening up communications with them*
Terra: New orders: you are to locate the target from a distance, record its data signature, send it to New Life, then leave the area. This mission is covert; do not let yourselves be seen by this Navi. If you are seen, attempt to hide yourselves before teleporting. Do not enguage it under any circumstances.
*Terra then turns back to the group, motioning for the joes on-duty to lower their weapons*
Terra: Alright, here's what has to be done. We need to obtain this Navi's data-signature so that we can keep it from teleporting here. Next, we need to order a full-scale evacuation of Electopia to this base, and then we need to cut the Electopian network off from the rest of the global network in order to keep it from reaching the Undernet. Our goal is to isolate this thing as best we can in order to keep it from learning anything more, then we can work on how to stop it.
*Without missing a beat, Terra then walks over to Ruin, grabs his right wrist, and twists it completely around, shattering the bones entirely before turning around and walking away*
Terra: Much like your leg, that was for Mars. I'd gladly lock you away, but we can't afford to pay any attention to the old lines of right and wrong any longer. Joes, please repair this Navi and return him to 100% condition.
*Terra then turns back to the group again*
Terra: As I've already stated, our top priority is getting this Navi's data signature. If any of you know of a way, we need to begin immediately, in case the joe unit doesn't make it back.

Below, M allowed himself to be restrained, but focused all of his powers on bending the will of the Joes... or at least convincing them, upon realizing the futility of accessing their 'will': <'There will be trial now, with your commander. I'm come regarding the threat that emerged in Creamland'>, he projected, and merely hoped that the strange systems were either informed or intelligent enough to realize the gravity of that situation.

[bgcolor=3D3D3D]Hmph.. Oh yeah, +2 karma to Shadow. :P ----
Yes. He does. Iria continued to vent her frustration on the matter. If Mercury had such a monitor over the area he should have known a signature would be needed, right? That makes it his fault we're wasting a squad of Joe's to retrieve a signature that he should have already gotten.
Besides what sort of navi, droid or otherwise, withholds information when evidently the fate of the net is on the line? Is this a game to you people? What else do you know that we should so we can properly deal with this thing. Iria was subconsciously tapping on her arm as she was before. A clear sign she was not pleased for those who've spent more than 2 hours with her.
Her sharp tone and whip-like words continued, despite Terra being her superior. Though she leaned closer and spoke in whisper, so only he could hear. If you insist on mending the wanted scrapheap I want a disabling device put in him so we can bring him back at any time. You can't honestly be wanting this threat to roam free, can you?

Shadow's kick proved futile, that trick wouldn't work on Ruin, how had done it on the navi who had appeared shortly after the attempt. The leg was intercepted at the knee by Ruin's foot, broken instantly by the returning force. Ruin turned away from Shadow at this point, only to be approached by Terra and have his arm torn asunder, much like his leg before. He let out a large grunt but refused to cry out, he had felt similar pain before at the hands of that navi, it was nothing new. He gave a glare to Terra as he walked away, then another to Iria as she spoke to Terra. After her last comment, he was plenty sure she was talking about him, but he did not speak, glad enough that Terra was well minded enough to realize that at this point, they needed all the manpower they could get.
Phenoix was rather taken aback by the turn of events, but he had not gotten very involved with the stardroids, so this turn of events did not affect him as much as it may have Ruin or the others. However, he was thankful that at the very least this one was intelligent enough to know the issue at hand was far more important than the disputes between holders of licenses and those who choose not to register. However, He really did not know what to do at this point, he was just running with Ruin and preparing for the coming storm.
Despite Terra's orders for the Joes to repair Ruin, at this point, it wouldn't be too far from the truth to say that Phenoix had lost all trust he had in the ONB, given its actions in the past few hours. Phenoix turned and pointed his hand on Ruin's arm as a golden glow began to shine forth. Phenoix's systems began to rev up once again, as a golden energy radiated outward from the palm of his hand. Ruin looked to Phenoix rather angrily, snarling at him but holding still regardless.
Ruin: "What do you think you're doing?"
Phenoix: "Fixing you, now shut up and let me concentrate, this will only take a few seconds."
And only a few seconds did it in fact take. As the energy radiated out of Phenoix's only hand, Ruin's arm began to heal up, twisting back to its original state as the bones in his body began to come together once again and solidify. In mere moments, Phenoix had healed the great damage Terra had done to Ruin's arm. Though his enemy normally, Phenoix would not let a common enemy have a chance to mess with his current ally.
Mercury however, remained silent. Not only was he on the low rung of the information ladder, but what Terra said was true. The information was classified. Truth to be told that was all he knew, a general overview of the situation, and he failed to see how helpful that could truly be.

Merrill finally spoke up, after a few minutes of silent thinking. He walked to the front, ignoring the fact there had been Joes pointing guns at him a minute ago. He bowed slightly to Terra, before speaking.
" I'm Merrill, Pleasure... Terra, right? I have a suggestion. Pending the squad of Joes, All in all. I think I can be of service here. I think I have an idea on how to obtain data of this creature. I think she can help."
Merrill clasped his hads together, and muttered some words under his breath. When he opened them, there was a small butterfly in his hands. She was small, no bigger than a few quarters in size, including her wingspan.
" This is Lunaku. She can prolly get close to this creature and collect data on it without being seen. As you can see, her small stature should allow her to get close to this ceature, and possibly get us data. I can teleport to the aera, hide, and send her to search to collect data. We would stay outta sight."

Raised a gloved hand to his chin,Glassman looks toward Merrill,nodding in response to his plan.
"That sounds like it has a chance of working...let's hope you can make it semi-invisible too..."
He rubbed his forehead with a single hand,pointing toward Iria.
"As has been said,this isn't the time to focus on hostilities between ourselves. Let's work on getting that monster here and the rest of the plan..."
Lowering his hand to his side,his valencia-colored eyes shifted to Ruin for a moment,only to switch to Phenoix's direction even quicker.
"I trust you can keep him from getting into too much trouble...? It'd be a waste of energy and needed fighting power to let these two go at it...more than they already have."
Having made an attempt to diffuse the tension in the air amongst them all,Glassman then spoke toward Terra,with a bit more respect than his comrade had shown.
"So,just making sure...we need to evacuate Electopia,get the target's data signature,lock it here and do away with it,right? Or is it possible to get these 'Aegis' suppression units back up and operating...?"
Trying to keep track of everything was quite a task,but Glassman was doing his best to keep up with it all...

Shadow shouldn't have been surprised by Ruin's quick reaction, which sent waves of excruciating pain through his leg as his digital code simulated a shattered bone, twas not a pleasant experience. His face scrunched into a look of pain, and emitted a low growling noise, trying his best to ignore the pain.
He paid little attention to what the others were going on about, as he had no plans to stick around. Especially now. Managing to keep his balance on one leg he began the process he had for teleporting to different networks.
"You all can have fun playing heroes, I'm done with you all." he said through gritted teeth. Then he turned into a beam of energy and teleported away. His destination known only to him.
Location change: ? Edit in a place when I decide where he ends up. >.>

As Mercury was about to respond about the Aegis units, Ruin stepped up, causing Mercury to wait for a time. Having actually retrieved one of the crystals from a broken down one and attempted to do so for the second, Ruin knew their state and knew that the devices could not likely be brought back up to speed.
Ruin: "I doubt that will be possible. I personally have visited two of these so called "Aegis" units, and from the condition they were in, I saw no hope for repair. I did however retrieve the contents of one of them, a green spherical crystal. I'd present it but it seems when subject to open air it deteriorates as a steady rate, so I have been keeping it in my Data Stores. For the short time that I came into combat with the creature before it deleted me, there seemed to be some kind of resonnation, between the two, but it could have simply been the force of the sudden impact when I attacked it. The one based in Sharo is the one I took the crystal out of, and when I go there it had a large hole in it already. As for the one in Netopia, well it was on the verge of breaking down, Shiny here can second that."
Phenoix shot a glare back at Ruin for the nickname, but proceeded along with the prompt by the Darkloid regardless.
Phenoix: "Its true, it seemed beyond repair, maintaining the bare minimum energy requirements to continue running."
Phenoix sent a short mail to Glassman in order to be more covert with his next comment, not wanting Ruin to know about it.
<MAIL> Sender: Phenoix.exe Recipient: Glassman.exe Subject: Ruin Body:
While I was healing him I placed a leash within him. Should he get out of line, I can restrain him for a time. This should suffice for the issue at hand. However, do not take this the wrong way. I do not agree with the ONB's methods, your sense of Justice hardly masking your subjugation of others. I know not what he fights for, but I fight for the world, Not for you, not for them, and not for the Revolution.
This Leash shall suffice, you can count on that.
Phenoix

*Ignoring everyone else, Terra turns to Ruin*
Terra: Then you've just made yourself too important to let roam free.
*Terra takes out a small device, grabs Ruin's hand once again, and straps it to his wrist. A moment later, the device litteraly merges itself with the darkloid's data, disappearing entirely*
Terra: This device will give me direct control over your teleportation functions. It doesn't matter where you are, I can teleport you anywhere I see fit in a moment's notice. Including the New Life prison unit.
*Terra then turns to Irea, now obviously annoyed*
Terra: Now, I will say this one last time. The lines of right and wrong that you're holding up like a banner are dead now. I will not hear another petty opinion from you or anyone else here in regards to anything.
*Terra then turns away from Irea once again, addressing the entire group*
Terra: Our one goal is now survival. The old lines of darkloid, ONB, WWW, license, and Revolution are dead. If I hear of any arrests or deletions based on these lines, it will be the arester that is put in prison. If anyone is too caught up in these petty old lines to work together to save all of us, then get out of here now, and do not go anywhere near that creature, because we WILL find you, and we WILL dispose of you. Permanently.
*Terra then glances to Merrill*
Terra: No. Noone is to do anything unless I command it. We're giving the joe unit a chance, then we'll move on from there.
