Chapter 26: Xanthium's Message
As the bright light of the full moon graced the forest miles away from the now destroyed base, Green, Ops, Tali, Pow, Amber, Z, Slash, and Adhira all sat, or stood around a campfire set by the Guardian Toa of Lightning. Though the original plan had been to fly back to Greens mansion and camp out there until they found the others and devised a battle strategy, but the ship had run out of fuel due to them using most of it up when they tried to get to base. They were forced to land in a hidden area in the forest which had not been easy to do with all of the Makutacons around, and neither Z or Slash were in the mood to fly with passengers riding them so they had decided to travel the rest of the way on foot. Three hours later and here they were, luckily far enough away to not be spotted by any Makutacons, and with Z on lookout.
Green couldn't help but feel a bit guilty about all of this. Though he had nothing to do with any of the attacks, he was still a bit ashamed of himself for not being the friend they truly deserved, and not being there when he felt they needed him most. That, and the fact that he had always felt a little weird around Xanthium. He couldn't quite put his finger on it at the time, but Green had always had the feeling that Xanthium was hiding something, but since he was the guy who had trained Paradox he had thought that maybe whatever Xanthium was hiding was hidden for good reason and decided not to think too much of it. Green looked down at the dirt ground. 'Once again, when you could've helped them, you decided not to, and in the end failed them once again. Just like you did with the Sphere when you first met them'.
Ops had been silent ever since they had landed, and no one could really blame him for it either. After the murder of his team, Ops had made great friends out of the Toa Voya, whom had still been trying to get him to talk to them about his horrific experiences so that they could help him recover. 'And in turn, I wasn't there to save them all in time'. Ops thought sadly. Still, in spite of this fear, there was still faith that maybe his friends had made it. He wasn't there during the attack, and therefore could not know for sure whether or not the rest of his friends were dead. Though he had seen the bodies, he did not know whom the bodies belonged to. Regardless, Ops prayed both for the relatives of those who had died in this attack, that his friends were still alive, and, should they still live, for their safety.
Tali gazed at Ops sadly. She knew he was thinking about his old team that was lost before they met. She could see that what they had seen at the base had brought those painful memories. Walking over, she sat next to him, taking one of his servos in her hands as she rested her head on his shoulder. Appreciating her concern, Ops wrapped his arm around Tali's shoulders and sort of side hugging her as he kissed the side of the top of her Kanohi Hau.
Green lifted his head suddenly as another thought occurred to him. 'Wait. I haven't ALWAYS failed them! I did help them fight down in the Mayan Ruins, and I helped save Paradox from the Milicons, and even when I did fail them, I had failed fighting for them'! Green smiled a bit in that moment. 'I never stopped fighting for my friends before, regardless of my failures. Why should I let my failures stop me now'? They were his friends after all, and Green never gave up when his friends were in danger before. So again, he wasn't going to stop now.
Green stood up then, gaining everyone's attention as he said: "We have to do something". Though they had agreed to make a plan when they got to his mansion, Green could already tell that hopes of victory were fading fast.
"Like what, Green?" Amber asked, her voice echoing the feeling of defeat that others were feeling.
"I don't know, SOMETHING". Green responded quickly. "Something that'll bring the Makutacons back to the junkyard they came from".
Z hid a chuckle at this. Most of the Matoran he had been forced to hunt down and assassinate, something he wasn't proud of by the way, most of them were fearful of their lives. Not that there was a problem with that, as it was normal for a Matoran to need to be protected by a Toa. But this one was very different. Where others would easily give up, Green kept fighting, determined to be victorious and do what was right by his friends regardless of the consequences. Even now with their chances looking pretty slim, not for Z though as he could survive a Makutacon attack with ease, Green still wanted to fight and stand up for the weak. It was a wonder to him why Green had not been recruited or selected to become a Toa yet, as he surely would've made a great one.
"Right now, Green, I can't even think of a way to do that." Amber sighed sadly, her mind refusing to even begin to give her a single idea that could stir any hope in her to create an effective plan.
Green glared at the female Toa of Ice. "Well we can't just SIT here".
Not at all liking the look Green was giving his girlfriend, Pow stood up and glared down at him. "Then what CAN we do"?! He shouted. As upset as he was about all of these betrayals and losses, he had to agree with Amber. There were very few of them in comparison to the Makutacons. One to a thousand as far as he could tell. If they tried to fight back now, Pow had no doubt that they would've been finished in mere seconds. Without more help, a good plan, and enough supplies, there was no way they were beating the Makutacons now.
Unnoticed to the group, Adhira had quietly moved away from the campsite a bit and was standing with her back to them. She couldn't stand hearing this kind of bickering as it always made her stressed and anxious and want to jump in to shut the arguement down. But right now, she didn't have anything to say that could soothe the hurt they all were feeling. Sighing sadly as she listened to the heated words behind her, she wondered what she could say when she heard a song in her heart. Yes. This will help. If anything, it will calm everyone down. Focusing on the melody as it filled her being, she let herself go and gently swayed with the music before letting the words flow from her lips. Her voice was low but just loud enough for Amber to hear it about the escalating argument.
"Guys! Sshh!" She hissed, gesturing to Adhira, while focusing on the words.
" Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot"
As Adhira continued to sing, everyone remained silent, some confused by the language while others understood it completely. One of these confused people was Green, whom tilted his head to the side in curiosity. But as he continued to listen, his head straightened a bit. 'Wait... I've heard this before'. Maybe not in the same language as Adhira was singing it, but he remembered his mother singing him the exact same song in english as a child when he had trouble sleeping. Green smiled brightly as he remembered the lyrics then.
Pow, Ops, and Z all understood this song perfectly, although Z was technically cheating as it was his reconstructed processor translating it for him. Nonetheless, Z smiled at the lyrics. Though he wasn't as close to Jesus as the others were, Z had still felt an overwhelming sense of peace whenever listening to music about him. As a mech of violence he had never expected to enjoy such a feeling, but he did. Perhaps it was because despite his thirst for a fight, there was a stronger thirst for redemption, or perhaps it was God calling him, asking for him to come into a closer relationship with him. Though Z did want it to be the latter, he had done a lot of wrong and killed a lot of people. 'Would God truly forgive me for such actions'? Z thought. He decided to think on the matter another time however as he laid in the more grassy area of the ground and closed optics to listen peacefully.
Meanwhile, Adhira was still singing, smiling as she remembered very clearly the first time she had heard this song. At a church she had attended as a teen, they had welcomed a Christian guest artist who sang worship songs combining English and Hebrew. She had loved the songs, so full of joy and life that she couldn't help but sing and dance as she used to as a child. after the service, she had gone online and found a video recording of one of his old concerts in the land of Israel. She had probably watched it over a dozen times, but this song, translated Holy, Holy, Holy, was her favorite as it helped soothe her whenever she felt life crashing down around her, threatening to drive her insane. As she sang, a tear escaped her eye, she could feel the familiar sensation of someone wrapping their arms around her though no one was physically there. It shook her, causing her voice to tremble a bit.
"Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot"
Adhira lifted her head, raising her arms to Heaven, forgetting everyone and everything. It was just her and Him.
"Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo"
Relaxing, Amber softly swayed to the song, her eyes closed, feeling a calming peace fill her soul. Behind her, Tali mouthed the lyrics, while remembering their English translation. Ops smiled brightly as he continued to listen, his faith lifting as he read Tali's lips while Z remained silent and Green leaned against a nearby tree, pondering what exactly Adhira was saying with a tilted head. 'This song seems really familiar but I can't put my finger on why, but this song seems really familiar'. Green lifted his head then as he recognized a few words. 'Is that Hebrew'? He recognized Elohim as God, as he had learned in Hebrew class in High School. Green smiled fondly in memory, as he had remembered how happy he was to hear that name in the language of God's chosen people.
Just then, Amber raised her voice in tune with Adhira's, singing the English words.
"Holy Holy Holy"
Holy Holy Holy
O Lord our God Lord of Hosts
O Lord our God Lord of Hosts"
Ops smiled wider as he attempted to sing along. Green also smiled, then looking up to the heavens, thanking Jesus for his everlasting love and eternal forgiveness on the cross, in a time where everyone may have deserved it least. He thanked Jesus for providing the ultimate miracle of granting eternal life to those who believe. Lastly, he thanked God for giving them another day to live his way, and would continue to thank him for all of these for the rest of his life.
"Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo"
Amber continued to keep her steady pace with Adhira.
"Who was and Who is
And Who is to come
Who was and Who is
And Who is to come"
Unable to resist anymore, Z joined them in song with a smile, silently hoping that God would hear him worship him for a moment.
Meanwhile Green, having finished his prayer earlier, took out his phone and turned it on. On the home screen was a picture of himself, Angela, and Golden huddled together in front of a hay stack with smiles on their masks. Green chuckled in memory as it was during the hay fair that they held every year. it was one of few times that the three of them had to act like children again before the Bioformers had arrived and changed their lives, and before Jesus had changed Greens for the better. Green took another moment then, adding a prayer for his fiance and little brother back home, praying that God would watch over and protect them from any harm, and also thanking him for bringing them into his life before finishing that prayer with a smile.
Sensing the sweet peace engulfing the team, Adhira and Amber share a quick smile before they start to finish the song.
"Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot
Adoni Elohim tz'va'ot
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo
Asher hayah
V'hoveh v'yavo"
Their voices softened as they finished, almost hesitant to stop singing. Their thoughts focused solely on the One who had created them, who loved them, who had sent His Son to die for them so that they could be saved from eternal damnation. They didn't want to stop, didn't want this moment to end. Their voices slowly dropped down into a whisper before they stopped singing altogether and stood quietly in the heavy silence.
This silence was immediately followed by a loud static that erupted from the radio Z, Pow, and Amber had set up earlier, prompting Slash to stand up in surprise as a familiar voice coughed through it. "Somebody turn that up, and hurry"!
Immediately, Tali ran over and turned up the volume as an irritably familiar voice spoke through: "Slaves of New Mata Nui, my name is Xanthium Prime. Former leader of the Toabots and proud contributor to the Makutacons. For years, your leaders have Sheltered you from this war, giving you comforting lies to protect you. But no longer I tell you, for The Makutacons and Toabots have fought for the fate of this world for too long now. And the Makutacon forces are stronger than ever before. So I offer this only warning. To Any Toabots who are listening, your leader Paradox Prime, is dead. I single handedly slaughtered him when he was foolish enough to challenged me".
Green glared at the radio, knowing what had really happened as Tali had told him earlier. "That snake"!
Tali snarled angrily. "What a liar." She had seen what had happened to Paradox. She knew he was still alive, and it boiled her blood to hear this traitor speak falsely about it. Turning around to see the others' reactions, she froze when her gaze locked on Adhira's. The Guardian Vo Toa was perfectly livid. Her lips were curled in an animalistic snarl, her fangs gleaming in the light, her eyes flashed with the immense rage and Tali knew she was doing everything she could to not blow the radio up right now. And even though the anger was not directed at her, Tali still backed away a bit.
"Impudent child." Adhira's voice rumbled like thunder. "He is unworthy to bear the title of Prime."
Swallowing thickly to calm herself down, Amber crossed her arms over her chest. "I don't believe it." She prayed the anger in her voice would help ease Adhira as she had heard tales of how quickly the Vo Toa would run off into battle to avenge a wrong done to her family. The fact she was still here showed great strength.
Ops glared at the radio, also angry that Xanthium would dare to tell such a lie. It was a clever move on his part, as not everyone knew what had happened to Paradox, and would therefore create doubt in the team and a sense of hopelessness. 'The second we find any of the other survivors, we're exposing Xanthium for that lie'. Ops thought. Then again, would the others believe them? Xanthium had already done much to the team, so surely they wouldn't doubt if he was telling the truth about murdering Paradox either.
Z sat up at the news, already being able to tell from the faces of the others that Xanthium was lying. Of course he wouldn't need to. If the Toabots had found him and decided to attack, Xanthium could still use Paradox as leverage, and if they did believe him, he would have them angry enough to forget about forgiveness and possibly break that rule to go after him. 'Either way, Xanthium is winning this war'.
Noticing the anger in his girlfriend, Pow wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close, whispering to her that everything would be okay.
111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Hundreds of miles away in the same forest, all of the survivors had crowded around their own radio, having just heard the "news" from Xanthium. Athena stood closest to the radio, anger burning in her optics as she heard Xanthium declare Paradox's death as if it was glorious, or something to be proud of. Seeing as she never really knew him that well, perhaps he did. 'Regardless, if he had truly murdered my husband, I will kill him'! Athena thought ragefully.
Armor screamed with rage, feeling the same anger as the other Toabots. Red shook from where he stood further in the back, trying to keep calm so he wouldn't suggest going after Xanthium. As much as he wanted to, there were far too many Makutacons on Xanthium's side. To attack now would be risky, especially since none of them were in the mood or condition to formulate a proper plan. His belief was only further proven as he heard the fliers arguing next to him, SkyFighter arguing that Paradox was alive, AirAssault arguing otherwise, and SilverVolt wanting to attack.
"That's impossible". Maze commented as he sat against a tree, the shock of the message causing him to lose the use of his legs.
As Robert held Ava close, he had his widened eyes fixed on the radio, not sure whether or not to believe that Paradox had been killed in battle. Sure it sounded unlikely at first. But he also had to consider the fact that he had trained Paradox. He would've easily been able to defeat him. It would've been the perfect opportunity. With Paradox angered by the deaths of many innocent people, Xanthium had a better chance of humiliating him as well.
Ava clung to Robert, trembling as she didn't want to believe it to be true but at the same time couldn't deny the possibility. Hearing something fall behind her, she glanced over her shoulder to see that Diego had fallen on his knees, his frame shaking in grief and disbelief while behind him, Iris was storming away from the group with clenched fists, unaware that Valera was quietly watching her form her place on the other side of this same group.
11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Iris stalked down the darkened and bushy area farther into the woods, muttering to herself. "It can't be true. It can't be true. It can't be true. It can NOT be TRUE!" She accented the last word with a firm punch to a nearby tree, that threatened to go through it.
A few seconds later, she heard a rustling sound from a nearby bush, followed by a weak but audible: "h..help...me..."
"Who's there?!" Iris barked, really not in the mood to be polite right about now.
A few seconds later, the arm of a female Ta-Toabot with a few purple blood stains, rose from the bush next to her. "Please..."
Iris' optics widened in shock as the sight evaporated her previous anger. "Oh my goodness!" She yelled , running over to help the femme up. "Here, I got you. You're going to be alright."
The Toabot she pulled up had a thin body, though not too thin to be concerning, with a color scheme or red and black, with black wire-like but smooth hair and wore a black Kanohi Kualsi with red indents over a pair of red optics. "T-th-thanks..." She responded weakly.
The Toabot whom Iris was holding on to had barely gotten away from the battlefield in the base, but remembering what her dad had taught her, she had managed to kill as many Makutacons as she needed to and managed to escape. Even though once she was finally away, a Makutacon sniper had shot her in the abdomen. Felicia had done as her dad instructed and tried her best to keep quiet as she collapsed and played dead. Once a few minutes had passed, she made a run for it, which with a bullet inside of her was probably a stupid thing to do, but she was not going to risk getting shot again. A few hours of stumbling and crawling though the forest tracking the energy signatures of her friends later, here she was. Something of which she took a moment to pray and give God thanks for. Not just for allowing her to make it out okay, but also for being as merciful, loving, and caring as he was to ensure that any of them had made it out at all. If she had lost any more than she probably already had, she didn't know what she would do.
"No problem." Iris smiled." I'm Iris, by the way."
The Toabot smiled weakly back. "F..Felicia".
"A pleasure to meet you, Felicia. Come on, the others are just ahead. We'll get you healed up in no time."
111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Diego stood a ways from the group, keeping a watch for Iris, wondering where she had gone and praying that she wasn't going to do something stupid. Movement caught the corner of his eye and he looked over to see her walking back.
"Iris! There you are! Where did you...?" His voice stilled when he saw his friend was not alone. "Who is she?"
"Her name is Felicia and she's hurt real bad. She needs help."
That got Diego moving. "Right. Here, let me help you." He said as he moved to wrap Felicia's other arm around his shoulders.
Armor's optics went wide upon hearing Iris say that name, then ran over without a second to waste as he shouted: "Felicia"! Armor had not seen Felicia in a while and had been praying desperately for the past few hours that Jesus would have provided her safe passage here. 'Thank you so much Jesus'. Armor prayed.
Felicia turned her head quickly in his direction, her own optics widening in surprise. "Dad"!?
Diego and Iris shared a shocked look. "Dad?" They mouthed simultaneously. Never had it occurred to them that Armor had children, which made Iris all the more grateful that she hadn't turned Felicia away.
"Is she going to be alright"?! Armor asked them the second he reached them, the worry evident in his face.
Felicia rolled her optics weakly. "I'm fine...dad...she...found me. They're going...to get me help".
She resisted the urge to let out a dreamy sigh as she then gazed at Diego. 'DANG, he's hot'. Felicia thought. Sure medical attention was definitely a priority, but there was no way she was going to pass up the opportunity to flirt with this guy. But by flirting, she meant complimenting him. If she dared to show off the way some humans did nowadays, her dad would probably kill her and Diego. Besides that, she wasn't even into wearing short shorts or belly shirts. Regardless of the compliments she would get, she would NOT show off like that.
Armor waited for a moment, taking a breather to calm down and resist the urge to go back to their destroyed base and kill as many Makutacons as possible for hurting his only child. 'Revenge is their thing'. Armor reminded himself. 'And as Paradox would say if he were here: What would Jesus have done, should they still have the chance to repent of their wicked ways and turn to the right path'?.
Armor looked to them. "Take good care of her, OK"?
"Uh, yes, sir." Diego stuttered a bit, strangely being formal to Armor all of a sudden. Iris only rolled her optics. She had seen her friend blush a bit when he first saw Felicia and knew he was hiding it poorly.
"Oh, brother."
Felicia had also noticed the blush from Diego, and noticed a slighter hint of it now as she was so close to his cheek. She tried her best to hide her grin at this. No, she still wouldn't show off anything for him, but she would try to leave some hints here and there that she was willing to date. 'Hopefully this guy will get the hints though'. Felicia thought. Otherwise, she may give up. The fact that she even wanted to try to get him to notice her made her pray that it would be God's will that they be together. If he were ever to show her a sign to back off, she would.
Suddenly the radio screeched again, gaining everyone's attention again. A few seconds later, Xanthium's voice spoke through it again: "Now that the death of your pathetic leader has properly sunk in, I leave you with one last message and you should all listen closely because I am NOT repeating it. Unless you want every inhabitant of New Mata Nui to suffer the same fate, you will leave this world in peace. If you Toabots simply agree to leave this world within the next 12 hours, you will all live and this threat of genocide will be but a warning. The twelve hours start now".
Immediately after that, the radio stopped screeching, indicating that the message had ended. Diego allowed his helm to hang as he started sightlessly at the ground, the meaning of the words he had just heard sinking in and twisting his gut with dread as he realized that there was a good chance he might end up leaving his home forever. Beside him, he heard Iris growl slightly, enough to let those around her know she was angry but not enough to scare them.
111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
Back with Green's group, Green glared angrily at the radio. 'So not only does Xanthium pretend to be our friend, then betray us, kill some of us, and then try to take away the Toabot's hope, but now he threatens the innocent to get them to leave'?! Sure, Green could admit that Xanthium did have his motivations, but all of that stuff had happened years ago and Jesus's blood had erased this mistake from existence. Green was tempted to believe that Xanthium was pure evil. Regardless, he had to be stopped.
"The Toabots can't leave". Ops suddenly spoke up. "I'll guarantee you all, The Makutacons would start killing everyone the second they would agree".
Slash narrowed his optics at Ops from where he sat of the ground against a tree. "And if there's a chance that they'll be spared? Then what"?
"They can't take that risk." Tali stated, standing by Ops.
"I agree. Since when have a Makutacon kept their word?" Amber nodded her support. Ops was correct, the second the Toabots left, it would be hell for everyone on Earth. 'It happened before. Why can't anyone learn from the past these days?!'
"Once". Slash responded. "It was back on Planet X when they made this same threat". He looked down sadly. "And they weren't kidding".
Slash had been stationed at that battle. Well more like Armor had babysat him, but still. Slash had heard the threat and saw what happened when the Toabots had decided to ignore them. The end result hadn't been pretty. So many innocent mechs, femmes, and liarklings had been killed, and he had been there to witness it. He and Armor were two of the few whom had even made it out. He remembered Paradox crying as he had hugged him tightly that night, relieved that God had answered his prayers and at least spared him. As much as Slash wanted to fight back, he did not want anyone else to suffer the same way that he had. There was that, and the fact that there were far too many Makutacons for them to fight back and possibly stand a chance.
"Honestly guys, what if they're telling the truth THIS time too"? Slash asked them.
Ops shook his head as he lowered himself onto his knees in front of Slash. "I don't think it's that simple Slash. Even if the Makutacons are telling the truth, the Toabots leaving still puts the world at risk. The Toabots leaving, even if we don't stand a chance, just allows them their victory that much sooner".
Slash looked up into Ops's optics, understanding the truth in his words. Though there was evidence in his memories that these Makutacons were serious, and there were so many that they may only last seconds in battle, even Slash knew that leaving was not going to make anything easier. Things would only get worse from there regardless of what choice they made. But maybe if they stayed behind and stayed alive for just a little longer, maybe they would give the people a fighting chance.
"I say we let them leave and have all the fun to ourselves". Z commented. "We go in guns blazing, swords clashing and try to make the Makutacons leave by force".
Slash blinked rapidly before raising an opticridge in the Ex-cons direction. "No... Just... That plan is stupid".
Z grinned widely. "No, it's crazy. Like me"., earning a chuckle from a few of them.
"You do realize that if the Toabots do leave, you'll be losing more than just your friends." Adhira's solemn voice broke through the mirth as she sent a pointed look to Amber.
Amber blinked a few times in confusion before the meaning behind the words slapped her in the face. "Diego!" She gasped in horror. " He's going to have to go with them, now that his secret's out." She fell into a sobbing mess. Because of their bond as cousins, the two had formed a strong bond, promising that they would be there for each other no matter what. The farthest they had been apart was across the world but out in space? Amber couldn't bear the thought.
Ops's optics widened. "No.."
Diego had already been separated from his mother over the exile. Now because he was doing the right thing, he would be sent away without a chance of seeing either of his parents ever again. Even though space travel was in development, it was still many years away, and there was no way that the Makutacons were going to let any of them leave for any reason. And with the secret currently out that Diego was a Bioformer, now Diego would have to leave with them.
Knowing how this would also emotionally effect Amber, Pow walked over to her and hugged her tightly close whilst whispering in her ear: "Everything's going to be OK". Though he didn't know that for a fact, he would pray and have faith that it would.
Green tightened his fist from where he stood, gaining everyone's attention as he said: "No, it's not over".
"I take it you have a plan, Green?" Tali looked at the Matoran expectantly.
Green looked down. "No". Then turning to the others. "But something I'm sure of is if the Toabots do leave, the Makutacons will still have another enemy. Me".
True, Green did not yet have a plan as to how they would combat so many Makutacons, but regardless of the number, he refused to be afraid. As long as God was with them, who could stand against them? The Makutacons had many soldiers, supersoldiers, vehicles, and many more weapons of mass destruction, but as long as they were fighting for what was right, he was certain that God would not abandon them, and as long as they believed in the cause Paradox started for him, he would assist however he could.
Adhira: And myself and Valera.
Z smirked. "You already know MY pick".
Ops nodded, then looked questioningly at his fiance. She was the leader of her own Toa team so if she said no, that would give her friends reason to say no. But regardless of how small the odds seemed, he hoped that that would not keep Tali from helping them. With there being as many Makutacons as there were, they would need as much help as the Father would allow.
Adhira took a step towards him, determination burning in her gaze. "And myself and Valera." She and her sister had fought far too long and hard alongside their family and friends to lose their planet to a bunch of power hungry idiots on steroids. They did it before, and with God's help, they would be victorious again.
Pow walked up to Amber once again, gently grabbing her hand to let his support to her be known. "Neither will WE".
"I'll think about it". Slash said, then purposely waiting a few seconds just to add suspense before responding: "I'm in. As long as I remain in vehicle form in public, they won't know I haven't left".
Green smiled brightly, happy to have their support as he responded: "Alright. First thing I need to do is go back home. I need to see my fiancé".
Tali nodded in understanding, grinning as she thought of how happy Angela would be to see him.
"Okay, Green." Amber smiled softly.
"Thanks guys"! Green shouted. "I'll be back soon"! He yelled before then running away to find his van, knowing he had parked it somewhere nearby, hence was the reason why he had asked to land here in the first place. Though Green was certain of their victory, he still needed to get his family out of harms way. Two Makutacons had already been at his zoo so he didn't doubt they knew where he lived. Green just hoped that he would get there in time.
