*With his head in his hand, Iscon simply remains silent for a moment before replying to Li*
Iscon: I don't live down here, I work down here. I live UP THERE.
*Iscon points to the hole... the spot that he knew his second cave had been, after the first was destroyed by the Armored Destroyer and Genesis*
Iscon: Needless to say, I don't know where the hole came from if you didn't make it. As for this device; I'm not sure. I found it here a while back. It didn't look valuable enough to haul out of the mountain, so I left it to sit. I've been down in this mind for about the past five days, and when I last went past this thing it was fine. I have no idea what could have happened to it.

Ruin stopped examining it and acknowledged Iscon, he was beginning to get bored, the rush of falling for so long was beginning to wear off.
"Well Whatever happened to it seemed to happen from the inside. When I fell on this... thing it had already been partially destroyed. Still, What is down here? This mountain is a lot bigger on the inside than it is on the outside it would seem."

Strifeman appeared near the hole that Ruin made. seeing as it was likely a long drop, he planted his sword in the wall, hanging onto it by the hilt. He did this while jumping from side to side, until he reached the bottom and fell the rest of the way.

*Iscon's eyebrow raises as yet another Navi enters the mineshaft, giving him a quick glance over before speaking*
Iscon: Alright, this is getting a bit annoying. I have legal claim to the mining in this mountain, so if you're trying to take over my livelyhood then we'll see what the courts of Sharo have to say about that!

[bgcolor=black]As Li searches the screen with his fingers, the message blinks again: STATUS CRITICAL. CONTAINMENT CRIPPLED. INTERFACE DISABLED. It blinks again, then again and again and then a final message shows: REMAINING POWER TO CONTAINMENT. It turns black. The struggling engine picks up in pace. The smoke gets thicker.

Ruin laughs at Iscon's rather annoyed remark. Though not particularly happy seeing the newcomer, he paid no mind. So long as he didn't get in the way Ruin had no problem with it.
"I don't care about this mountain nor do I care about Sharo's authorities. Whats even in this mountain anyway? It ca-"
Ruin's words were cut off when he saw the display changing, apparently all this device's power was being diverted to containing something, though nobody knew what. Ruin however intended to find out.
"I don't know what this thing is trying to contain, but I'm going to find out one way or another."
Taking holds on both inner sides of the hole running into the machine, Ruin proceeded to put all his power into ripping the machine apart as he drew himself in. His stance deep and his teeth clenched, he used his strength as best he could to tear the machine apart and see what was inside, regardless of if others would try to stop him.

Li stared at the monitor for a second before looking at the newer navi drop in from above.
How many people followed me...Seriously...
He looked toward Ruin after Iscon spoke. It wasn't that he didn't care what Iscon said, it was that he was more concerned with what exactly was in that engine.
(I have the strangest feeling something is where it shouldn't be.) Hey don't break it! I need that engine!

[bgcolor=black] Despite his best efforts, and in support of Li's and (presumably) Iscon's concerns, the casing that Ruin attempts to rip does not yield easily. It bends. A little. The engine continues chugging and proceeds to blast smoke in the destructive navi's face.

Ruin rested for a time, looking back to Li, having no idea why he would want a broken engine, but he wasn't one to judge. He crossed his arms as he looked from Li to Iscon and back to the machine. He kept an eye on the newcomer, he wasnt going to let this one get what was soon to be his, or break it. If anyone was going to break anything, it would be him.
"Well I want whatever this thing is trying to contain. Help me get the engine out and its yours. Otherwise im breaking through it."

Li's fingers pointed at the engine, his dolls appearing instantly pulling in the same direction that Ruin had been pulling in. He didn't say anything, but however another set of dolls appeared behind him, rotating slowly around him as he was wary of what was in the engine.

He had been sleeping in his Darksoul and woke at the word s from Ruin.
Strifeman: Did anyone run the plates on that car?
He was still a bit dizzy from the fall.
Strifeman: Hey, Old Man! You got some pain relievers and a bag of tools?

*Giving a shrug, Iscon walks past StrifeMan, giving him an enclosed cup filled with the healing tea that he always carries with him. He then walks past the group, motions for Li and Ruin to take a step over so he could join in, hooks his pick-axe onto the back of the box and begins to pull as well*

Ruin let Iscon take one side, while he and Li's dolls pulled the other. With a deep stance he pulled with all his might against the pull of the others, trying to literally tear the shell open to get at whatever was inside. It would seem they all wanted the same thing, which was good for him, he didn't have to fight anyone to get what he wanted. Considering he didn't know where he was even, getting into a fight would not be beneficial.

[bgcolor=black]The side with Ruin and Li gives a little, and suddenly. After a few moments, it's peeled off of the engine surface, and starts to come back toward them. The material seems strange in that it's metallic, but as thick and heavy as lead.
With all of Iscon's pulling, the head of the pickaxe yields more give than the shell... but the shell still starts to bend. A little. It seems he could use some extra hands.

Strifeman quickly downs the healing liquid and walks over to Iscon's side, sticking his sword in next to the pickaxe and pulling as hard as he can.
