(SURPRISE!)
Bara and Thomas fell back after being pushed out of the way. Bara stared up in shock as he saw his daughter, huddled in the middle of the pillar with her head in her knees and her arms over her head. He needed to save her, but he couldn't do it himself. He glanced at Typhos and saw that he was carving something. He immediately got the idea and grabbed two crystals, tossing one to Thomas. "Start carving!"
Thomas got the message, but decided to be a distraction first. It would be strange if the guy in the suit (no time to look up his name right now) saw everyone start arts and crafts in the middle of a fight. Bara called to Toulient, speaking in a low tone so the suit guy wouldn't hear. "I need you to go around him and grab Galiana while we charge. I can't do it myself. I'm too old for things like that, but your young. I just want her out of the way of a fight."
After that, Bara immediately began carving a crystal knife.

"Sir, yes sir," Touleint nodded as inconspicuously as he could, and then went off to be useful until the general called him again.

Bill Nye settled into his seat and directed everyone to theirs.
"So a guardian organization to keep crazy shit from happening? I can't say I disapprove. but how do you plan to accomplish this?"

Myrxxan waved a hand and magic bean sparking from his palm. A holographic map of Awesome Land and the surrounding lands appeared. "A good question. Since we are so few, not much can be acomplished at the moment. But the new Imperatrix does help a little by sating the power vacuum."
"It is our hope," Xadam spoke up. "That one day an entire base, maybe even a city could be established, holding these ideals."
"Yes." Myrxxan nodded. "A city to carry on the dynasty of peace."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Typhos finally dug out the crystal and wrenched it free. He took out a knife and began to try and carve the crystal when a sudden thought struck him. Almost on its own accord his knife moved to the crystal. The stone glowed brighter and then seemed to absorb the dagger.
Typhos stared down at his now glowing dagger and then back at the giant suited man. He grinned and hurled the dagger at the man. The dagger struck the armor...and then cut it like rice paper.

(ADAM I <3 your paying attention to my rants)
"A city... of peace..." that appealed to Bill nye more than anything. Peace. Stability. Safety. "Yes... I can help with that... but the other nations need to agree. How will you convince Really Cool Land to relinquish their throne? Or Fun Land their council? No... It would have to be Awesome Land, the center.
"But... how does Aurora Veralice help this endeavor?"

(lol)
Myrxxan considered this. "If we can, I would like to simply try and persuade her. She doesnt seem like the iron-willed tyrant Leon was. If worse comes to worse we could always establish the city first and stand the consequences later."

"Hmm... perhaps..." This could be it. This could be the stability and peace Bill had been hoping for for so long. It was within his grasp!
"Very well. Go speak to Aurora Veralice. I need to stay here and finish a few things that could help us."

Phiro's eyes, although not visible beneath his visor, widened with shock as the blade went straight through his suit. Such a thing was clearly not good for the circuitry.
"You...You'll pay for this!" Phiro laughed hysterically, having gone off the deep end. A radar appeared on his visor screen and displayed "RUNNING ON EMERGENCY SIPHON CRYSTAL REACTOR POWER".
"Uh oh..." Phiro muttered to himself as his suit immediately started outputting terajoules of energy, striking the crystals throughout the mine and causing the walls to crumble. If the suit was not destroyed instantly, they were all screwed.

Bara watched as Typhos lunged at Phiro and felt proud, but when the walls began to crumble, he quickly did the same combination as Typhos with his sword and lunged at Phiro. His daughter was still inside the gave, and he needed to give Toulient as much time as possible to get her out.

Typhos leaped back and raised his knife. "We need to bug out quick, sir." he called to Baras. Tapping into his newfound crystal abilities he made the edge of the knife extend into a short sword. With a huff he threw the blade at the suit, pinning it to the wall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Myrxxan smiled and nodded. "Excellent. I hope we can truly bring about stability to this land." With that the four turned and left, heading back to Awesome Land.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Deep inside Myrxxan's mind, Xavian thought. THe boy was weakening to his presence, but he was also moving at an extremem pace towards his goals. Xavian was no fool, he saw right through Myrxxan's plans.
In bringing about stability to Awesome Land the boy hoped to be able to gather research and magic at a whim, to suppress Xavian permanently. Something the dark mage refused to let happen.
SO here he was, thinking of ways to bring down Myrxxan's attempts. A city of stability and peace? Xavian scoffed at the idea. Such things were impossible. THe only true constant paths were that of death and oblivion.
A sudden thought occurred to him. Smiling, Xavian began projecting is thoughts outward, into the void between realms.
"Shadowfiend..are you there, my servant?"
There was no response for a good minute and then a raspy voice came through the think. "I am here, master."
"Excellent. Now listen very carefully..."

Bara nodded and swung his sword at the suit after Tyros had pinned Phiro. It sliced right through. Thomas stood behind him near the entrence, preparing to help with their hasty retreat, but as the walls crumbled, so did Galiana's pillar. It began to quake and crumble, and she lifted her head up from her knees. She gasped when it began to tilt sideways, and she began to slide forward. She screamed and grabbed on to the opposite side and hung there as the pillar slowly began to tilt and crumble forward.

Then i remembered that Johnny and co were there. Johnny used the False Shield to transform into another giant robot, much like the Gurren-Lagann and proceeded to fight the mechanical Ridley clone.
"You Imperial types need to find another flying lizard upon whcih to base all of your creations."
He punched Phiro in the robots face.

"Hahaha..." Phiro laughed as his suit was so severely cut that it could no longer sustain itself. "Such power...cannot be taken lightly..." Phiro fell to the ground, mentally and physically damaged from the battle. At this point, Aurora managed to recover from her collision with the wall and realized something had to be done immediately.
Phiro noticed this too, however, and was determined to stop Aurora from helping anyone. With the last bit of power from his suit he fired a pulse of energy directly toward Galiana.
"Such insubordination..." Aurora sighed, and in one swift motion she had grabbed a crystal and reflected the energy back toward Phiro, fatally wounding him.
Aurora winced at having to dispose of one of her most intelligent workers but had no time to mourn. With eerie unfitting-for-a-teenage-girl strength, she grabbed the pillar Galiana was on and rushed outside, commanding everyone to do the same.

Robot-Johnny, Sarah, and Cassandra (and everyone they were with) followed Aurora out. Touleint shrugged and followed General Bara.

Typhos followed close behind...grabbing a few crystals as he went.

Aurora led everyone to the Imperial Broadcasting Station, feeling the need to address the issue despite the fact that EVERYONE had been summoned to the mine and knew what had happened.
"Attention, citizens of Awesome Land! We have suffered a mild tragedy today in the loss of our beloved scientist Phiro, who was...killed...after temporarily going insane during a project to help save my brother. Let it be known that this is not commonplace and, during my rule, shall never happen again!" Aurora said firmly in front of a camera. Everyone (who all managed to fit in the IBS) began to clap and Aurora took her bow.
"Now, there are more important issues at hand..." Aurora said, slamming a button on a nearby wall. The Imperial Broadcasting Station instantly transformed into the Imperial Courthouse. Aurora sat as the judge, retaining her normal clothing, with all of Tyler's/Zach/Zack/However his name is spelled's characters sitting before her. Everyone else sat in the jury patiently.
"While I greatly appreciate your assistance in defeating Phiro..." Aurora began, looking at Guardian Tyras, who hereby served as bailiff. "...You all are accused of bypassing my barrier, a criminal offense punishable by 100 years in prison or, if you prefer, death." Aurora addressed Johnny and the rest who had magically appeared in the cave.
"In layman's terms..." Tyras chuckled, twirling his sword at his side. "How do you guys plead?"

Cybele had wondered into the room after her rest in the tavern. She had drunk at least five bottles of strong wine and was a little more open with her thoughts than usual, so after Aurora stated her case, Cybele folded her arms and shouted at her from the crowd. "Those men fought for you, and you're going to throw them in jail?"
She had no idea as to what had happened, but after years of hunting she was pretty good at assumptions. She had to be to outwit a large beast.

"I know not who you are, but I ask that you refrain from your outbursts, Young Lady." Aurora addressed Cybele. Tyras looked up from his sword and noticed it was the same girl he had fought earlier and began to snicker. He walked up to Aurora and whispered something into her ear.
"Yes, yes, Tyras. Go back to your post." Aurora commanded. "It would be a shame to have to hold you in contempt of court. Tyras also informs me that you were not in the mines earlier. Explain." Aurora tapped her foot in a state of impatience.

She smirked and raised an eyebrow at Tyras. "I got into a fight with your manservent there. He let me off."

"Hmm?" Aurora looked over at Tyras, doing nothing to hide her displeasure at his shirking of responsibility. "Tyras, is this true?" Aurora asked, and it was clear that Tyras was doomed unless he thought of something quickly.
"Your Imperial Majesty, rest assured that I have no idea what she is talking about." Tyras smirked at Cybele before continuing. "Surely she is merely trying to avoid punishment. If you ask me, I say she's a little on the drunken side, so there's no telling if she's being veracious in her claims."
Aurora looked back at Cybele and couldn't help but feel that Tyras' statement had some sort of truthfulness to it. She waited for Cybele to respond, resuming her foot tapping.

Cybele's face grew red with anger and she pointed a finger at Tyras. "You lier! I won! I can take any punishment you give me!"
