The Arch Storm

[Shagohad]

One mind, one goal, one purpose...

Sahaquiel

Our senses itch as an intruder disturbs our home. The Order...The Science Division...



One of ignorant confidence, we fabricate a lie. Instead of the specimens, we are the scientists.



He remains ignorant. He shall remain ignorant.



No gifts to be received.

One mind, one goal, one purpose...

Rin Masaki

We left the Arch, pretending to be a Naval Forces Officer.

Moving to Kyushu we met a Miner.

Sumi.Masaki: Konnichiwa
The.Liberator: Konnichiwa
Sumi.Masaki: What is a Miner doing in the Emperors space?
The.Liberator: I am no miner. I am however a defender of such craft.
Sumi.Masaki: Hai... and what are yu defending here?
Sumi.Masaki: We dont need you...
Death: Arron's_Fighter was killed by a hostile vessel.
The.Liberator: Who do you speak for, alien?
Sumi.Masaki: And yet... you are here...
Sumi.Masaki: Alien?
Sumi.Masaki: Sumi Masaki, 113th Naval Forces Recon Wing
Sumi.Masaki: And dont dare to insult me again...
The.Liberator: You have an awful lot of Naval Forces hostages to be one of them.
Sumi.Masaki: They were captured by a Dragon... we were able to free them
Sumi.Masaki: Now... why are you here?
The.Liberator: To protect economic welfare of Sirius.
Sumi.Masaki: The Emperor doesnt need your protection... Nor does our state... Nor does our economy.
Sumi.Masaki: We will ask you a last time... why are you here?
Sumi.Masaki: You werent invited... you arent needed...
The.Liberator: I'm heading back from the Tau systems.
Sumi.Masaki: And why are you doing this?
The.Liberator: I've just purchased this ship and it's guns there. Shiny, is it not?
Sumi.Masaki: We dont care about your technology...
Sumi.Masaki: What is your destination?
The.Liberator: Bretonian patrol.
Sumi.Masaki: You are going to assist those that fight us?
The.Liberator: It's not my war.
Sumi.Masaki: And yet... you assist them...
Sumi.Masaki: We should remove you...
The.Liberator: They provide us shelter from Outcasts. I'm sure you'll agree that they are indeed a nuisance.
Sumi.Masaki: They are... But those warmongers are worse...
Sumi.Masaki: And you are assisting them...
Sumi.Masaki: Is there anything left that could defend you in this situation?

We asked our questions, but it did not try to defend itself. We deemed it not able to serve our goal.

Sumi.Masaki: You are not going to defend yourself with things that could let me deem you unguilty...
Sumi.Masaki: We are going to fullfil the Emperors will then...
The.Liberator: Guilty of what?
Sumi.Masaki: Treason...
The.Liberator: Against?
Sumi.Masaki: The Emperor and Kusari...

It was removed.

We moved back home, bringing gifts for the family.

The seed of plague...

We have been disrupted.

Trespasser's presence near our sanctuary. We reveal ourselves...

They tried to accuse us of infection, and that we are infected humans... They create an orb of mistakes. So they try to make a test upon us... We deny.

We insist... They did not wish to leave, so we stepped forward and made their lives miserable...

We think the contrary - they are infected.

One was clever... next time his mind will be shaded.

Seiji Akimoto

The darkness does not overwhelm this mind anymore. It has been enlightened, ready to follow the path of the stars...

A friend was awaiting for us. We left the Arch and we headed to New Tokyo. We were Naval Forces officers this time. We encountered a trader who was carrying high valuable optronics.

Seiji.Akimoto: May I know what's the destination of those... Optronics?
A.Better.Name: tau 31
Seiji.Akimoto: And who gave you permission to carry such cargo? Kishiro? Samura?
A.Better.Name: no permission, just good dealings
Aquene-Kinky: Hai, who do you work for ?
A.Better.Name: i am an independent zoner
Aquene-Kinky: 'Zoner' ? I see no zoner affiliation there.
Aquene-Kinky: I know
Aquene-Kinky: Also, your ID card says opposive.
A.Better.Name: no zoner affiliation, but there is work here to be done
Aquene-Kinky: Like smuggling such a cargo through Kusari ?
Aquene-Kinky: Optronics are restricted here, boy.
Seiji.Akimoto: *Nods* I guess your cargo won't reach its final destination
A.Better.Name: i bought this cargo in kusari, under good terms, why is it different now
Seiji.Akimoto: Good terms? I don't believe you
Aquene-Kinky: Refusal to comply would be un-wised y'a know.
Aquene-Kinky: So ... please do so.
Aquene-Kinky: What would his penalty be, Akimoto-san eh ?
A.Better.Name: what would you like me to comply with
Seiji.Akimoto: Hai, please, drop the cargo
Aquene-Kinky: And remember, if you try to escape on cruise engines which would be invain, you'll have to face the consequences.
A.Better.Name: dropping the cargo is not a solution, this is not contraband
A.Better.Name: is there another alternative
Seiji.Akimoto: Hai, this is not contraband, but you don't hold permissions to carry such cargo in our homeland
Seiji.Akimoto: Maybe you could release them in New Tokyo
A.Better.Name: your homeland had no objections to selling me this on your home planet
Aquene-Kinky: We can't be sure who sold it to you, maybe you bought it off black market.
A.Better.Name: dropping this cargo is not a solution, do you have another alternative
Aquene-Kinky: Are you parrot ?
Aquene-Kinky: If not, stop repeating these irrelevent sentances.
A.Better.Name: you have no right or reason to doubt my story
Seiji.Akimoto: Believe me, we have our reasons to doubt.
Aquene-Kinky: And comply on what you're told to do.
Aquene-Kinky: You have 20 more seconds to decide.

The human mind is weak: The trader tried to escape, but his fate was already written.

The ion storms made us to return to the Arch. Our friend docked, but we spotted a trespasser.

Seiji.Akimoto: Identify yourself
Samantha.Stewards: I'm just a Freelancer looking around for Wild remains..
Seiji.Akimoto: Wild remains?
Samantha.Stewards: Ever since I met one in the Omegas, I always wanted to meet them.. Even more!
Seiji.Akimoto: But you're in the wrong place
Samantha.Stewards: Ow, how could you tell?
Seiji.Akimoto: This is just a Naval Forces structure.
Samantha.Stewards: Well, if I would take some distance from it then?
Seiji.Akimoto: Negative, I want you to leave this restricted space
Seiji.Akimoto: You've seen enough, Zoner
Samantha.Stewards: Hmm, isn't there anything I can do to get permission to investigate around here?
Samantha.Stewards: I'm not a Zoner, sir.
Seiji.Akimoto: Maybe you should fix your transponder
Seiji.Akimoto: Now, move away.
Samantha.Stewards: It's not broke, I've been part of the Zoners for some time..
Samantha.Stewards: But I thought there would be more in life than just fixing engines, you know?
Samantha.Stewards: So I retired, kinda..
Samantha.Stewards: And started flying around..
Seiji.Akimoto: I'm not interested in your life anymore
Samantha.Stewards: Ow, sorry, guess I talked ahead of me again. *Giggles*
Seiji.Akimoto: This is the last warning, gaijin
Samantha.Stewards: Ow well, guess I'll look somewhere else then.
Samantha.Stewards: *Waves* Bye!

No lethal force was needed this time. We are safe in the Arch.
We brought the following gifts to the community:

Rin Masaki

We left the family as a Dragon.

We wanted to move to Hokkaido, but were disrupted by a Dragon and an Order Individual, they were not able to get close. They started to ask questions and we tried to use them against them.

Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: Unknown ship, identify yourself.
Sumi.Masaki: Why should we answer towards a gajin?
Sumi.Masaki: Why dont you tell us... something about yourself gajin?.
Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: What do you want to know exept what you are not allowed to know?
Sumi.Masaki: Why are you here?
]bd[Hattori.Hanzo: He is here by the grace of our Shogun.

The Dragon was smart, not easy to fool, so was the other one. The family should be careful.

Sumi.Masaki: That may answer who gave him the permission... our honorable Taishogun... highly interesting...
Sumi.Masaki: Why are we allying with those who left us alone... once more?
]bd[Hattori.Hanzo: It is not our place to question his will.
Sumi.Masaki: You are right Brother...
Sumi.Masaki: But still we would like to know the reason for... the visit of those gajins...
]bd[Hattori.Hanzo: There is no need for us to know that.
Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: We're here to learn the wisdom of the dragons, their warrior code and their way of mind, Masaki-san.
]bd[Hattori.Hanzo: We only need to follow his commands.

We were able to trick them, when they asked about our origin, using a mask we aquired long ago.

Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: Why are you not talking with us anymore, Masaki-san?
Sumi.Masaki: We know what we need to know...
Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: What are you doing in this beautiful and unhospital Tohoku?
Sumi.Masaki: We were collecting informations for the Uesugi family
Sumi.Masaki: Our family...
Order|Cpl.H.Frederick: Where are your family from, Masaki-san?
Sumi.Masaki: You could ask the other Dragons... but the answer you will receive is Kyoto

We left the family as Chrysanthemum.

We found another Chrysanthemum near our home, we convinced it to leave and never come back.

Rin.Masaki: Konnichiwa Sister
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: konnichi wa *squeek*
Rin.Masaki: You should not be here...
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: they wont let me out
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: thats the problem
Rin.Masaki: We restricted the access to this place...
Rin.Masaki: It is dangerous...
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: was just exploring Hokkaido when ...*squeek* that thing sucked me in
Rin.Masaki: Rin will help you...
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: thats the way out isnt it? *squeek*
Rin.Masaki: Hai... never come back... or we will have to tell it to the other Elders...
[GC]_Nezumi.Yui.: *squeek* please no. I am just for a few weeks on the sisterhood. I wil be a good girl
Rin.Masaki: Hai...

The Chrysanthemum left and we returned to our family.
