*finds a spot that's shaded by the mast or sails and stands there* ... So, will you listen now? *at the same time that Jason and Tyler talk* Axl, you were there. What happened? Well, so far as I could see, there was this darkness, and these dancers that brought more darkness, and when when we couldn't see it sounded like Zero was in pain. Next thing I knew, he was like this. ... ... What? ...Axl, do you remember the Eurasia Colony incident? *eyes snap open* ! Or the Nightmare incident? ... Well, they were before my time, but yeah. Who hasn't heard of them? ... Why? Jason: *Blinks* …?
Tyler: *Looks out to sea, looking for a dorsal fin* ... *gets closer to Axl* The Sigma Virus was spread all across the world- Affecting every- SHH!! Sorry. It affected everyone, Reploid or Human, making them go crazy. One of the big reasons why they wanted to start on New Generation Reploids. Right. But please don't interrupt. *sheepishly* Sorry. Anyway, what about it?[/size][/sub] ... When Zero came in contact with the virus, he actually became stronger. WHAT?! SHH!! Sorry... ... Axl, what have you heard about the Nightmare incident? There were these things – I'm not sure if they were a virus or something else – that would affect Reploids, causing them to glitch up and sometimes even shut down. They were called 'Nightmares' because they would sometimes show Reploids dreams when they were affected. Another reason why they wanted to start on the New Generation 'Roids. People thought that the nightmares were caused by Zero's ghost. ... Oh boy... It was really something made from Zero's DNA data. So you think that this darkness has something to do with the Mavirick Virus? I'm not sure, especially since I don't have the equipment to check it. But it's possible. So what do we do? ...

*seems rather concerned with all this talk of being infected with darkness* (Reminds me too much of the villains back in Taishoki... I wonder if it's at all related? Probably not, but...) ... *sits on a crate or something, waiting*

*Some time passes. Then, Tyler jumps down from his post and looks over the edge of the boat*
Tyler: Wave Rider! You're back!
Wave Rider: And bearing good gifts! Ky will like them. Shiny things and elements for forging.
Tyler: Well, that will certainly come in handy. Toss it u—
*A bag comes flying through the air and lands on the deck with a SMACKT*
Tyler: … *Glances at the bag, then back at Wave Rider* …Thanks.

*comes in, with a cross between his usual glare and a weary look* ... ... *deep breath* ... I think when we use the world-travel song, we should follow the darkness. WHAT?! Tyler: …*Gives Zero a strange look, but then snorts and shrugs* …Tch. Doesn't sound like it could get any worse from here on out. We might as well try. Got any ideas on how that will work? I'm sure Jason would love to hear it.

I'm sure Jason would love to hear it. *looks between Zero and Tyler* Are you two crazy?! We'd be going right into its trap! We're already in its trap! We could try to go to whichever world we want over and over and over, and still the darkness would interfere every single time! If we try to struggle out we just stay stuck! If we keep going on as we have so far, nothing's gonna change. But if we take the path of least resistance, at least for a little while, we'll find something new, and maybe we can make use of it and find a way home! ... I don't like it either, but I also don't see any other way out. It wouldn't be the first time we've tried to solve a problem by going right to it. But what about the music? I don't know. I don't do music. Can't you just listen to it when it joins in and play along with or something? Or perhaps I could start the song and they could play along with me. Or you could let the darkness make the first move. Wait, what?! You heard me.((By the way, my cat says '3.22222222'))

I'll have to see and hear what that means before I understand, but that's okay.Torkie: Tyler. Are we ready to go?Tyler: Yep. We're all here and accounted for. Got some good supplies and gifts. Might as well head out.Torkie: Alright. Give it a few more hours of rest from that last encounter, and then we'll head out.

... Well, whatever gets us home, I guess. *flips out her cellphone absently, looking at it* (I just hope the others haven't gotten into TOO much trouble while we've been gone...) :< *worried*

*A few hours later* *trying not to fall asleep (again)* Zzz... *to whoever she can find on-deck that's part of the crew* So, I guess we're almost ready to go? Z~* *wakes up* ((EDIT: I just had a thought that Axl and Alia may have told the others about their time tied up in the town, with the collars and whatnot. But I suppose if we touch on that we can do so later?))

Let's get going. *obviously wants to get home ASAP* I think the same thing can be said for all of us. We won't be able to get proper rest until we get back home, so for us it would be better to get home sooner. ... Let's go.

Let's move out!*For the next while or so, everyone's running around, getting The Firebird ready to sail. Before too much longer, they're out to sea. After they get to an area where there's nothing in sight…* Jason: *Standing ready with Sarah nearby* …So… we just wait for the music to start, or what? *Is clearly tense*
