    [Somewhere at the edge of the City]

    The Devourer will rush off into the wilderness once Tovpir gets it onto ground that's less firm than the asphalt, such as dirt or mud. It will then dig into the ground, burrowing away from the big scary crystal thing.

    Well, not quite to the hunting grounds, but out of the city, certainly.

    Tobias takes the bishop with his knight, paranoidly wondering if she really is a great player and he's walking into a trap. Hmm... an AI might cause me some trouble. The fox-eyed king is great at tricking people, but a completely logical AI could easily out-think him. So what's Enshadu's plan? The endgame he's working towards. What exactly were you doing for him?

    He needs a custom hot lab to create his own virus. Biosafety level 4 at least if he doesn't want to kill himself doing it. He'd have to take over a research lab and then modify it, take over someone else's bioweapons building, or secretly build his own.

    She frowns.Was that a correct move? He'd need to make his own, but...he doesn't...well...breathe oxygen. He breathes something supplied by that respirator, he has...some kind of robotic lung system. He works on it, because he can't be effected by it. It'd have to be somewhere safe though...he's a very good doctor. It should probably be wise to check everywhere...I've no idea how. He could have built his own! Zane is another of his servants...my equal.

    It certainly wasn't the best move you could have made. Tobias takes the rook. You said Zane knows where the base is, but didn't tell you. Maybe you're not complete equals. Tell me about him.

    She doesn't move a piece. Say, could my knight take that bishop? Enshadu's the one good at chess...Zane? Well...he's human. A freak...pretty much, some kind of pyromancer. He controls some kind of black fire, it feeds on fear. He's an assasin...Enshadu keeps assassins close...he's creepy...Zane, not Enshadu.

    No, it can't.
    Tobias idly looks around the park. Do you know where I might be able to find Zane?

    She frowns again, staring at the board. Er...could you skip me this turn? Zane? Um...I don't know...maybe at Trog's, or an inn. He likes to look at people...it's creepy.

It's an amazing sight, but man, gods help you if you actually need to cross these streets today!

    Look to the skies now!
    It seems to be right 'round that time of year again.
    Magtok's own birthday,
    It may be vain, but he's got a parade going on now!


    For we need a little Thanksmas
    Right this very hour!
    Magbots wielding tubas,
    Floats higher than towers!
    Yes, we need a little Thanksmas
    Right this very minute!
    It hasn't snowed a single flurry,
    But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry;

    So turn on your TVs;
    Watch as the MagParade marches right on down your street!
    Don't try to bomb us;
    You can't see, but we've got guards all up in here now!


    For I've grown a little leaner,
    Grown a little colder,
    Grown a little sadder,
    Grown a little older,
    And I need a little laughter
    A day of no more soldiers,
    Need a little Thanksmas now!


    Yes, we need a little Thanksmas
    Right this very hour!
    Magbots playing trumpets,
    Floats the size of towers!
    Yes, we need a little Thanksmas
    Right this very minute.
    It hasn't snowed a single flurry,
    But Santa, dear, we're in a hurry;


    So turn on your TVs;
    Try not to miss the Starling float; it's hilarious!
    Don't try to bomb us;
    We may seem weak but we've got snipers up in the boughs.

    For we need a little music,
    Need a little laughter,
    Need a little singing
    Ringing through the rafter,
    And we need a little snappy
    "Happy ever after,"

    Need a little Thanksmas now!
    Need a little Thanksmas now!


    Parade

    Reinholdt is here!
    No, not that Reinholdt. The other one. The well adjusted one that lives in Inside with the Neme Hat and semi-creepy girlfriend.

    Right now, he's just enjoying the parade, though he does look around a bit to try and spot any snipers that may or may not exist.

    "Terenti is God. He teaches us that we have all sinned. We may yet be redeemed in his eyes by following the seven virtues. Doing so will guarantee living in his coming paradise. Those who do not will be purged in the coming cleansing fire." Saul explains.

    He probably needs lessons in providing this information tactfully without scaring everyone away.

    In your spy car! Everyone knows the baddies won't get far!

    Gentle rocking. So comforting and affectionate... Alyca has only felt this loved and safe in the arms of her sisters before this event. She'll stop crying, but it'll take her some time.

    Through this kind gesture, Justin scores points with more than Alyca. He scores points with Miriah, who is touched by the gesture of compassion and caring by someone who isn't directly related to her...

    "So you really do care about her..."

    "That being the case, you should know that I am, as a matter of fact, wholly irredeemable. I'm an undercover agent working for the good guys, but I've hurt people in ways a sweet, innocent boy like you couldn't even fathom. She's an undercover agent too."

    "There. I said it so now you two can live happily ever after, if you're cool with dating a field agent. If you're not, I'll wipe your memory myself."


    Shocker! Chaotic Good Miriah spilled the beans (or has delusions of grandeur) so that her Lawful Good sister didn't have to!

    Not that she suspects Justin will believe her or anything.

    And of course, she's Zefir's baby, so he can pick the name we'll give to her!

Then, with a flick of a finger, the flame blossomed into a small but obscenely colorful burst as a small streak flew to strike the end of the wick. The rest of the flame was gone after that strange display but the catamander's expression was a mixture of urgency and.. That of a child playing tag?

    With a quick motion, the alchemist reached out to try grab the Wizard's arm before pulling. Hard. For him, it might feel like falling forward only to have gravity momentarily reverse before he would find footing although the area would look much different than before. Rather, it would seem that the pair were standing on pearl white sands amidst a sea of black water while spirals and clouds drifted before a vast aurora; each glowing in vibrant hues that spanned the spectrum and beyond.

    Though, if the Wizard managed to wrest himself away before being tugged, then he would just see Nephea simply 'fall' into the shadow of the tree and disappear.
    The Wizard claps politely at the lightshow, so dazzled by the flash of color and luminescence that Nephea grabbing his arm takes him entirely unawares. He has the common sense and quick thinking not to pull away, out of fear of disrupting the ritual, but he does voice his protest. Or tries to. Before the unammed sorcerer can speak more than a single syllable the spell takes hold, wrenching the ground out from under him and making his stomach do backflips.

    He startles as they suddenly 'land', shoulders hunching up and eyes going wide with panic as the familiar, safe surroundings are replaced by alien shores.

    And then his face splits into a big, silly grin of wonder.This- This is amazing! Is this another world as well? Or... Or part of the other place, the Nexus? He plops himself down on the beach and scooping up a handful of sand he watches it pour through his fingers, the pearly white granules falling back to the ground. Where did you learn to do that? The answer doesn't really matter. For once his questions are entirely rhetorical. And that! I've never seen anything like it! What sort of magic could do such a thing? He asks, staring out at the unearthly corona hanging over the dark sea.

    At least Tovpir succeed with saving the people or well save the creature what he assumes is the real fact. And now the other creature is digging around... indeed a job for Tovpir. Tovpir will try to follow the other creature digging after him, but keeping enougth distance. He needs to think of a way to comunicate with it.

    This is the Nexus... you can't say something never happens. And there the problem appears.what gender has the dragon. Unless he finds someone who knows it or a book to help him he can't give her a name.

    Gentle rocking. So comforting and affectionate... Alyca has only felt this loved and safe in the arms of her sisters before this event. She'll stop crying, but it'll take her some time.

    Through this kind gesture, Justin scores points with more than Alyca. He scores points with Miriah, who is touched by the gesture of compassion and caring by someone who isn't directly related to her...

    "So you really do care about her..."

    "That being the case, you should know that I am, as a matter of fact, wholly irredeemable. I'm an undercover agent working for the good guys, but I've hurt people in ways a sweet, innocent boy like you couldn't even fathom. She's an undercover agent too."

    "There. I said it so now you two can live happily ever after, if you're cool with dating a field agent. If you're not, I'll wipe your memory myself."


    Shocker! Chaotic Good Miriah spilled the beans (or has delusions of grandeur) so that her Lawful Good sister didn't have to!

    Not that she suspects Justin will believe her or anything.
    [Alyca and Miriah's Car - That Was Fast]

    Seriously, that reveal could have been months of wacky shenanigans and tension. Adventures where Justin is involved but has no idea what's going on. Would have been gold. Nipping that in the bud is pretty unexpected, actually. C'est la vie.

    Justin is more confused than anything else. "Undercover agents? You two? So, that video of the interrogation wasn't just an interactive video?" Well that should be obvious, Justin. That really should have been obvious from the start. "Let's just take this one step at a time here. Agents? You two are secret agents. I guess I'm okay with, that? I'm going to need more explanation than 'the good guys,' but for right now it's okay." He leaves the innocent comment for later. No sense in revealing he's killed plenty of people himself. Especially when he's still hugging Alyca.

    It seemed that the chain of events wasn't quite over just yet, though. "Can I tell you in a second? The magnesium is about to go off and you really should be ready to make a hard landing.. Just in case, I mean. Also, I'd recommend against using magic for the time being because things work kinda weird here and it'll take too long to explain. Aim for the reddish part of the aurora, okay?" Nephea said in a hurried tone as she crouched down while keeping an eye on the sky overhead.

    Nothing would happen for a moment or two but quite suddenly, the ground would suddenly lurch upwards with such speed that it would likely send anyone standing on top of it flying for quite some distance. With all the grace of a cat, though, Nephea twisted around in midair as they neared the aurora. Apparently it was much closer than it seemed and only appeared distant due to forced perspective. If all things went well, then the pair would find themselves passing through the shimmering lights only to slow and gently descend onto what now appeared to be a glittering ribbon. At least from this perspective

    [Alyca and Miriah's Car - She's Not Done Yet!]

    Oh, I wouldn't write off that crazy slew of adventures just yet...

    Because Justin probably won't know that Alyca and Miriah are secret agents on anything more than a subliminal level after Miriah is finished with him! Miriah told him that they were secret agents so that Alyca didn't have to feel guilty about withholding important information about herself from him that could potentially destroy their relationship, not so that Justin could actually remember said important information. And now that she's told him and he has readily accepted everything, it is the appropriate time to take those words and memories back.

    Miriah attempts to inject the distracted Justin in the neck from behind with a sedative administered via a hypospray. The sedative may induce nausea, temporary paralysis, sleep, drooling, and memory loss in the patient.

    "Goodnight, sweetheart."

    What? They couldn't allow Justin to retain the memories of the short car chase! Why not take care of this bridge before they burn it while they're at it? Now they'll never ever have to reveal that they are secret agents to Justin ever again because they already fulfilled that moral obligation!

    -------
    [Abandoned-Looking Factory]

    Okay then! The baby dragon would wish Zefir luck with finding someone who can distinguish between dragon genders if it was aware of what he's thinking. But it is not.

    It finishes its meal, licking its chops as it crawls over to its blanket and curls up like the cuddly fire-breathing baby upon the snuggly thing.

    "What do now?"

    It yawns! Being born was an extremely exhausting experience for her!

    Tobias forks Mister E's queen and knight with his pawn. And laughs. I don't trust you the slightest bit. If he comes for you, I'll have a chance to kill him. If I can't stop him and he does manage to kill you, then nothing you told me was worth keeping you alive anyway. Accepting protective custody is your best move at this point.

    [Alyca and Miriah's Cabin - And He's Out!]

    Well, Justin loses his memories, and the guilt that would eventually make him reveal his past as a thief. But I get shenanigans, so it's a net gain. Sorry buddy.

    Justin gets injected in the neck. "Ow! What wwwaaasssssssss..." And that's about as far as Justin gets before he's lightly snoring on Alyca's head, arms wrapped around her. He has a lovely little dream about race cars and secret agents. It's slightly better than Cars 2.

    [Alyca and Miriah's Car - Tying Up Loose Justins]

    ... Okay! So Alyca and Miriah aren't actually going to tie Justin up, but they are going to clean up the car!

    To start, they're going to throw Justin's Big Mag out the window of their car and discard the box beside him. Hooray for littering! I mean, boo for littering! Second, they're going to drink some of his soda for him! All of that car and spy stuff was nothing more than a MagDonald induced dream, Justin! Third, they're gonna attempt to spray some breath freshener into his mouth and wipe the Alyca tears off of his suit!

    Alyca will slowly slip out of Justin's arms after hugging him for about a minute more. Next, she'll tinker with the dashboard, disabling some of the car's hidden functions and landing it in front of a mansion (a mansion not unlike Duke Nukem's) which they'll circle a couple of times, eating their fast food before Alyca reapplies her makeup and Miriah attempts to shake Justin awake!

    "Yo! Prince Charming! You're gonna miss the ball if you sleep in past twelve!"

    [Alyca and Miriah's Car - Justin Would Keep the Glass Slipper for Himself]

    Just how far back does the memory eraser go exactly? Magdonald's but not the the car chase? Does he still have that promise to dance with Alyca?

    "Huh? Nggh." Justin says groggily as he wakes up. He rubs his eyes and yawns, just before he whirls around and for three seconds gives Miriah a death glare that could pierce lead. It lasts just long enough to remember who the hell he's staring at. "Oh. Sorry. Oh crap, I fell asleep in the car. I'm sorry, gu- girls." Oh man, is that embarrassing! Why does he taste mint? That's not important, he was just rude again. "I won't look to groggy for the party will I?"

    ((I'm actually really pleased how well Shizuo matches Justin's description. A few years and they wouldn't look too different.))

    The hood reels back, trying to right his weapon for another swing, but Wrath is too quick. Fun fact about sword-masters - once you get inside the reach of their sword, all that skill is about as useful as an umbrella in a hurricane. If he'd had time, Hoody might've braced himself to stab Wrath when he charged. As it stands now, he might be in some trouble.

    The hood finds himself lying painfully in a puddle, and is none too happy. He lashes out, trying to bash Wrath in the head with the sword's pommel.

    Kailee scrabbles against the back wall, and her hand reflexively starts to transform. She halts the transformation midway, but it's readily apparent that the appendage was turning into some sort of firearm. "Who's there?" She asks, angry and a little nervous.
