Typhos grunted with each swing, chipping away at rock. He reached up and wiped sweat from his brow, glancing around. The mine was filled to the brim with people.
"This is foolish." he muttered. "What are we even looking for?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Viper, Konnig and Myrxxan met Xadam on the border of (wherever the hell Bill Nye is).
"Good to see you." Myrxxan nodded weakly to his friend. Xadam frowned in concern.
"Did HE get out again?"
"...Yes. For almost an hour this time. It's getting worse."Seeing Xadam's look, Myrxxan waved him off. "We can discuss it some other time. Please, take me to Bill nye."
"Right."
The four traveled back to the Tower.

Cow-man snuck around a conveniently placed corner and bent Johnny over.
"MRRRRRRR" Cow-man bellowed. He mounted the bent over Johnny and was about to scar him for the rest of his life. "Wait I know you...Screw it, I want your babies."

Galiana bowed and took the basket, heading up to wherever Alistor was. "E-excuse me? I have a basket from Empress Aurora."
------------------------------
Thomas spoke without looking at Typhos. "Crystals apparently."

"Excellent!" Alastor eyed the basked greedily; it had multiple unrefined crystals in it. Energy radiated from the basket, lighting up the dark room. "Thanks much. Oh, I'm Alastor by the way!" Alastor shook Galiana's hand and grabbed the basket, dumping the contents into a machine. The machine spat the crystals onto a conveyor belt; the resulting crystals shone more brilliantly and radiated more brightly. Phiro laughed. "Glad I thought of this crystal processing machine, aren't you, Alastor?" he asked, grabbing the crystals and placing them into a glass orb one by one. The wires attached to the orbs began to glow and spark at the ends.
"Of course! This will make the workload on the people much lighter and our job easier!" Alastor laughed. "Of course we'll still need more. Will you be a dear and go back to the mines to fill this basket up with crystals?" he asked Galiana, handing her the basket.

Galiana nodded and took the basket. She walked back to the mines and began to slowly walk around, waiting for people to put the crystals they found in her basket. Once it was filled, Galiana would walk back up to Alastor. This job was a lot easier for her than digging. It was a lot like carrying the baskets of laundry throughout the palace.

Johnny looked from Timotei to Cow Man. "You're both welcome to accompany us, but no RAPING ME!"
Everyone chuckled, even Leon.
Knox smiled, but it suddenly became a frown, with no transition. "Sorry Johnny, but the Hearts and I have to attend to matters back in Fun Land."
"Oh... Is it important?" Johnny realized that it sounded childish at once, and tried again. "I mean, uh, what kind of business?"
"Political. Foreign." Knox waved his comrades away from the group.
Sarah caught his arm. "Do you really have to go?"
"I'll be back as soon as I can."
She frowned again, but let him go. With a polite nod, Knox and the Hearts vanished, leaving Johnny with Sarah, Cassandra, Zento, Timotei, Cow man and Leon.

Bill Nye tapped hi foot impatiently while PFG went off somewhere else.
"When is he arriving...?"

Cybele looked back towards Carter. "Where are your....pets?"

"Friends." He corrected at once. "Companions. Warriors." He inclined his head. "Pacing the ground below. If anything fishy shows up, Fenrir'll let me know."

"Hm, really?" She peered down towards the streets. She saw two furry shapes patroling. They would be a fun hunt, but she kept the idea out of her head.
She sat down on the roof and reclined on her arms. "Well, why are you in Awesome Land?" She wanted to shoot herself for trying to start up idle conversation, but she needed time before she could think of anything to do. She was trapped there, afterall.

"Wandering. Stealing. Generally, being a thorn in the side of this new Imperatrix. Never much cared for her brother, and I don't think she's any better. Imperials. They're all the same. Don't care for the common folk. No one cares for us, but. I've been the only one caring for me since I was 13. Well, and the twins down there."
He stopped, and realized he was babbling. "You?"

She shrugged. "I was just passing through, but this damn barrior is blocking my way. As for my past?" She paused.
She used to be a hunter, and still was from time to time, but she only hunted the wild and exciting. She could say she lived with her father until she was 18 and traveled with him and lived with lions as her companions, but she woudl be babbling.
"Nothing much."

"Interesting," he said curtly, without glancing at her. "Well, its been great sitting here, but I think its time we went somewhere safer."

She stood up and placed her hands on her hips, scouting out the town. "Fine. You go where you want, but I'm heading this way."
She pounced down from the roof and landed gracefully on her feet. She began walking down the street towards the market street where there were shops and inns and places of interest.

Fine. Carter signaled Fenrir and Frigga to his side and started the other way.

Cybele didn't even glance back as she turned a corner and found herself on a secluded street. "This is...different. Isn't this the market?"
All the shops and taverns were completely empty. There wasn't a sound coming from anywhere. Cybele facedpalmed and leaned agains a wall. "Idiot! They're all at the mine!"
Then it hit her. They're all at the mine.
Cybele walked over to the closest tavern and opened the door. The owner hadn't had time to lock up. She went straight to the counter, pulled out a random bottle and sat on the stool, propping her feet up on the counter. She could remain there until the people started to let out, then she would start moving again.

Cow-man decided not to rape Johnny, but began to cause the wall to get pregnant.

"Excellent!" Alastor cheered as he kept taking the crystals, refining them and adding them to the orb. Once he assumed he had enough, he and Phiro carefully placed the orb inside the suit, which began to glow with energy. "Good...Wonderful. Now all we need to do is test it." Alastor said seriously. "Way ahead of you! I've already taken the liberty of designing a similar suit for me to wear." Phiro answered proudly as he retrieved a humanoid suit...with a few twists. It had wings, an energy shooting tail, and a very dragonlike full face helmet. It looked exactly like a bipedal..."RIDLEY. The Robotic Interface Designed to fire Light Energy at You." Phiro explained, hastily grabbing excess crystals and shoving them into his suit's Power Chamber. "You have GOT to be kidding me." Alastor sighed. "Nope. Dead serious." Phiro said with all intentions of seriousness. He strapped himself into the suit with the aid of Alastor and flew straight into the mines.

Touleint continued to mine. "A... battle suit like a dragon?"

Galiana follwed him back into the mine and immediately stood beside her father, slightly behind him. She peered around him at the suit with curiosity. Bara was baffled. "What on earth is that man doing?"
Thomas looked up after Bara had spoken. "So that's what these are for?"

"How very observant of you!" came the loud, very frightening robotic/demon-esque voice that thundered across the wall mines. "Ha ha ha! I'm working on the Research and Development of a Power Suit for Her Majesty's older brother. This is the 'Research' part!" Phiro laughed through his RIDLEY suit. He extended his right hand which was cloaked in a black dragon-like robotic clawed glove and fired an intense pulse of energy from a small cannon embedded in it. The beam narrowly avoided Touleint, hitting the area about an inch to his side.
"I suppose I'd better work on my aim. Optical Sensors, activate!" Phiro commanded. The visor in his dragon helmet flashed briefly before glowing a bright red. "Now I can see much better!" he laughed.
Aurora looked up at Phiro in shock and anger. "PHIRO! What is the meaning of this?!" she yelled in her trademark soft whisper of a voice.
"It's all for your brother's well being, Your Majesty." Phiro laughed once more. Aurora looked as if she was about to strike Phiro, but Phiro dissuaded her by firing a pulse of energy near her, this time missing on purpose.
"For the good of your brother..." Phiro repeated. The engines under the wings in the back of his slim but threatening 7 foot suit began to glow, firing off energy to allow him to hover. The wings on the back of the suit were just for show, it seemed. He noticed Galiana returning to the mine.
"Well, well, well! I should be thanking you. I never did get your name, however!" Phiro laughed crazily. He wasn't acting as rational as normal. His long, robotic tail shot straight toward Galiana, grabbing her by the neck of her outfit and lifting her closer to him. "Now, what was your name?" he laughed.
