...everyone, that is for a certain Commander...
...the leader of the whole orginization...
Signas...
"...Yes...i understand the requirements... but you still have yet to agree to the terms... i'll send them to you willingly, and you agree to your side... i ultimally think that is fair..." Signas began as he spoke with a soft whisper on a secured line.
Signas listened intently to directions he was given... nodding his head in agreement... unassure if the reploid on the other end of the conversation was going to remain true to his word...
"...yes... i understand.. there will be no repercussions... i assure you... i'm trusting you to remain true to your word...i am at a great loss at this point in time... far to much time was come to pass... neither side is winning... although we have an advantage... and i have thought about it long and hard... i am willing to sacrifice them both to end this war..." He continued with an uneven tone to his voice... "...of course you do know, i would have to retire myself as soon as this conversation has ended..."
Once again Signas listened to the voice on the other end, then once again nodded...
"...understood... they are on their way as i speak... they are under the assumption that they need to handle a small group of low level mavericks.. and yes... Shonen's philosophers stones have been confiscated... X's weapon systems have been deactivated as well... lately, the both of them have been reling on alchemy... but it would not be any problem... as long as you do as you say you are going to do..."
Signas dropped his head.
"...goodbye..." he whispered once again as he cut communication, slowly making his way out of the room...

Both X and Shonen peered out from behind a group of pillars then looking up at a group of windows several hundred feet above them...
"..this is really stupid... i mean reall , really stupid.. how the hell did we get talked into this... no weapons... no alchemy stones... no nothing..." X spoke quietly.
Shonen shook her head.
"... i have no idea little brother...i thought it was an odd request... Signas tried telling me that any extra energy readings would be picked up on...i never heard of anything so..."
"...fucked up?" X replied, finishing her sentence...
Shonen nodded, not turning her gaze from up above her.
"...yea... and the Manhattan Mall of all places..." she began then turned her eyes towards X.
"..low level mavericks?" X once again replied with a bit of sarcasm in his voice.
"...no weapons... no stones... no nothing..."
X looked at Shonen then cocked his head slightly.
"...set-up?"
Shonen nodded slightly...
"set-up.."
X pursed his lips.
"...so... what do you wanna do?"
Shonen once again looked up at the highest level of the mall, catching small flashes of light.
"your call..."
X followed her gaze...
"...you take one side.. i'll take the other, then we'll met up one floor below them."
"we'll call Blade X... one shot should give them a scare... then as soon as we get back to Hunter Tower... i'm gonna tear Signas apart..."
X chuckled slightly, fist bumping Shonen in the proces, then both seperated making their way to the staircases, quietly... making sure they kept an eye out for any hidden traps... and each other...

Alia held her hand to her chest...unable to believe what she overheard...
"...i..it can't be...Signas... colabriting with ...Sigma... X...Shonen...my God..." she began... feeling her legs begining to shake... her heart started to race.
"i got to go get Zero and Axl... i got to let them know Signas has gone maverick..."
