Improvi appears on screen.

"Already done that, Onyx. Conscripts suck, but they have guns. They know how to kill, just as much as an animal knows how to kill to survive. That's good enough. Though I must point out, this is a bit of a desperate plan."

Oberstleutant Bit Thu May 27 Bit

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*A medical reploid appears*

"Repair Raptor here reporting on the status of Oberstleutant Bit. The commander is doing well, he arrived via emergency blink system after he was completely torn apart."

*Footage of Zero standing directly behind Bit, stabbing him through the back with the red beam saber in a deadly embrace. Suddenly you see Bit stabbing himself through the abdomen with his own katana, the blade protruding out through his spine and stabbing into Zero's gut as well*

"Our medical staff work tirelessly to restore him... the task is nearly complete. Most of his own systems were vaporized but we were able to salvage enough of the neural net and the backup files within the archives to quickly reconstruct his body. Ironically enough, much of the Repliforce supplies he had obtained from his recent raid made up for a great majority of his rebuilt form."

*The camera pans to show Bit, sitting up on a med-table, armorless save for his large golden boots. His body completely silver and black, his face concealed in the shadows. Medical staff try to keep him still as they scan him up and down with blinking medical tools... but the samurai stubbornly keeps attempting to get away*

"Although I highly discouraged his return to action for /at least/ a day for him to grow accustomed to his rebuilt body, the Oberstleutant refused and would have none of it."

*Some more medical staff run through the background with Bit's infamous golden armor in hand. Repair Raptor shifts his gaze past his shoulder before darting it back towards the camera*

"Again I implore Command to keep Bit in the repair bay, we /highly/ discourage that... hey!"

*The camera pans once more to catch a glimpse of Bit walking out of the bay while placing his helm. Repair Raptor frowns to his staff but they all simply shrug*

Defense Status Thu May 27 Onyx Reptilia

\_|--------------------------------------- ¯\__/¯

<< BEGIN TEXT MESSAGE >>

As Leutant Fantasia stated, the status of the Conscripts in our service is best described as a shambles. While they -have- displayed some show of courage in their duty to serve the Coalition, it's simply not enough. Whoever took charge of the endeavor of drafting these men did a poor job of having them equipped; it was obviously an unplanned, rashly rushed job. I've re-assigned a few of the Conscripts to work detail duty in the Medical Ward.. or assigned them to make patrols every Quarter Hour to scan the streets and alleys for wounded and have then retrieved. I've also created two 'Border Patrols' out of a group of Mainstream Defense Drones. I know it is outside of my jurisdiction, but I have equipped them with orders to circle the walls of Berlin in opposite directions--Clockwise and Counterclockwise. Upon encountering -any- resistance, they will radio coordinates and Preliminary Assessments of the attacking force.

I've also recruited a handful of Conscripts to serve as Guerilla Snipers in several points along the main streets of Berlin. So far, they have demonstrated themselves worthy of Apprenticeships and induction into the Coalition Military Force.

Also, I have prepared seven teams of Engineers. They have been equipped with the tools necessary to patch any breeches that the Perimeter Walls might suffer. I have helped them solve three breeches thus far, but I fear there are more we've yet to spot. The Border Patrol will call in support from these Engineering Teams should they find one of these breeches.

I also wish to suggest that someone consider having Autocannon implacements, maybe off of tanks or ships or whathaveyou, setup at key points within the city to provide cover fire.. to strike down anything that moves. That is for Command to decide, however.

Onyx Out.

<Global News Network> Reports begin to come in from multiple sources about Robot Master movement into France. There is some official denial of these activities at first until a flyover picture reveals several legions of Joes, led by Bass and a variety of Robot Masters, pouring across the Godmachine's almost abandoned `line in the sand' and slowly, steadily, beginning to move northeast.

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Hrrrgh."

[Radio: (D) Public] Investigator! Jazz transmits, "Come to think of it... I do remember a Walrus somewhere... uhm... what does Frost Walrus look like?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Fat."

[Radio: (D) Public] Investigator! Jazz transmits, "Oh. Uhm. Then I guess maybe it was him."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Then you may fight with Repliforce over it."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "The Wily nation of überGermany will not be ceded to RF after being liberated by its Maverick overlords, who are not home at the moment."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Tehehehe.."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "You know they will fight you over it later."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "überGermany will be strong against UN oppression."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Further, we have cheese."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "I don't believe we're listening to you, Bass."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "The UN is only being oppressive against people trying to take over the world."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Of course you aren't. In world history, überGermany is rarely listened t--*DEAFENING EXPLOSION*"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Ooops?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "France SO isn't the world. It's just...cheesy. And whiny. And.. ..?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "You gotta take over Mars or something. They won't not... Well, that was unexpected."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "You must obey the rules in our new society."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "...Let's take over Canada!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Strider Hiryu transmits, "You sound like the Mavericks, Bass..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "....."

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Vile transmits, "Report."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Onyx Reptilia transmits, "Border Patrol Two, hurry up and get inside. There are Two Napalm Mortars waiting inside.. Get them.. set up position on the top of the Wall and prepare to attack."

<Global News Network> This just in! The Mavericks have again employed their scorched earth tactics, this time in France. We believe it is in response to the Robot Master march across the Pyranees Mountains.

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves can be heard cursing.

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "...ow."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "Hey! This is OURS now!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Eoin Dullahan transmits, "All those innocent people..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "I second that."

[Radio: (D) Public] Quick Man transmits, "We'll be sending you a bill shortly, Doppler. Wily has that laugh trademarked."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Did you knock the chessboard over when you lose too?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "GUTS MAN! COMMENCE OPERATION KAREOKE: QUEBECOIS STYLE!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "The Cheese is damaged? NOOOOOO! Well. At least they didn't get my mink stole."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Yes sir!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Muse transmits, "...oh dear lord. Do I need to turn my radio off now?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "DEAR LIGHT NO."

[Radio: (D) Public] LightFamily Dr. Light transmits, "I'm a swear word? Neat!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Son of a...."

[Radio: (D) Public] Quick Man is heard punching buttons on a calculator. "42 million lives!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "Sir. Permission to play the accompanying music?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider desynchs.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Let it burn...yes...let it all burn..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass growls, "Make it so, Dust Man. Make it so."

[Radio: (D) Public] LightFamily Dr. Light transmits, "Did you have sharing issues as a lad, Sigmund?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man fumbles a little.. then.. it begins. The most annoying sound in the world. It's an accordion. But there's so much dust that it sounds like bellowing+nails on chalkboard+putting a cat in a blender. And it's slightly jaunty.

Eisensturm> Glaive strikes Crush Crawfish with his Acid Wave attack.

[Radio: (D) Public] Quick Man transmits, "Yeeeeehaaw!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Excuse me while I try to figure out how to keep the Maverick's radio's on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man continues to play. And it just gets worse from there. Bass described it once. The sound of pitiless murder!

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Mais comm' j'étais le plus saffr', J' prenais toujours les plus gros. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut. Mais à la fin du repas, a bien fallu payer l'écot. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut. J'me suis trouvé en queue d'chemise, a cheval sur un tonneau. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut. Y avait un p'tit vent du nord, sacréyé qu'c'était pas chaud. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut. La bonn' femme dans la cuisine effilait son grand couteau. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut. Ell' me dit: cach' marichett', car je te f'rai sauter l'moineau. C'est à boire, à boire, mesdames, c'est à boire qu'il nous faut."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Tactical, you said something of a diversion. A diversion for what?"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "An unknown strike."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Any signs of other activity?"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Crush Crawfish curses. "Tackling a *##99$#$ing Hunter right now.."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Vous voulez bien m'écouter. Moi, j'dis pas ça pour critiquer. Vous pouvez bien me juger. Car ça s'ra la vérité. Autrefois avec aujourd'hui. C'est pas la même chose mes amis. Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Les filles partaient en buggie. Le soir avec leurs cavaliers. Se tenant par le p'tit doigt. Y s'promenaient sur le ch'min du roi. Y s'embrassaient au Jour de l'An. Y étaient correct pour un an. Ya ben du changement."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Run a check within Berlin."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Autrefois, les garçons veillaient. Vers les dix heures ils s'en allaient. C'est pas la même chose aujourd'hui. Ça veut passer le reste de la nuit. Ça s'embrasse dans les p'tits coins. Ça veut rester jusqu'au matin. Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Quand on faisait une veillée. Tout le monde était invité. On chantait pis on dansait. On savait bien s'amuser."

[Radio: (D) Public] Investigator! Jazz transmits, "Oh! I found the lyrics!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Onyx Reptilia transmits, "Another Hunter at <coordinates> just gave himself away. Looks like a chimp."

[Radio: (D) Public] Investigator! Jazz joins in, but misses the... subtle nuances of the French language that Guts so masterfully intones.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man continues his accordion. And it is STILL horrible.

[Radio: (D) Public] Burner Man transmits, "Interesting to say the least."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves can be heard recording. Great torture material.

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Y a beaucoup d'mères de famille Qui s'inquiètent de leurs filles. Elles vont en automobile. Faire des p'tits tours en dehors d'la ville. Elles vont prendre un p'tit verre de rye. Puis elles piquent encore une ride. Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Si en auto on vous invite. Jeunes filles n'allez pas trop vite. Y a des garçons pas gênés. Qui sauront vous arrêter. Ils diront faut qu'tu m'embrasses. Si tu veux pas débarque pis marche. Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps. Les filles coupent toutes leurs cheveux. Les autres du noirs sous les yeux. Avec du savon pis de l'eau. Tout le monde avait une belle peau. Aujourd'hui c'est de s'maquiller. Pour empêcher de ratatiner. Ya ben du changement. C'est pas comme dans l'ancien temps."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Ooo, hmm. Destroy it."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Status report."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Crush Crawfish grunts. "Damned hunter.."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Vile clackclack, "Roughly five seconds ago, Hunters appeared from our teleportation grid. I can only assume there are more inside, as radio communication to the guard posted there has been blocked. Deploy response teams."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "What?! Stop them! Stop them now!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Do not allow the Hunters to escape! Crush them!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Crush Crawfish cackles!

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Crush Crawfish grumbles.. "Unable to continue.."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Withdraw Crush."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Anyone still alive?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man rasps "I still function..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Yes. In spite of your best efforts."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive heavy panting. "Yes."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves laughs, only slightly off balance. "Weaklings. I've seen and heard much worse on the deep resscesses of the Internet! *cough-hack* Medic..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Glaive? Give up and die."

[Radio: (D) Public] Cut Man would probably say something witty related to cutters here, but can't!

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Practice what you preach, 'Doctor'."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Why should he?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Pwitty! Glyde Loath transmits, "Perhaps you should go finish him off, Doctor."

[Radio: (D) Public] Pwitty! Glyde Loath transmits, "Perhaps he should finish *YOU* off?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr Lysander chuckles.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Many have tried and failed."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Hey Doppler?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Okay. So many have tried and failed."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "No. I will not die until this is over. Oh...tell me Doppler, how is Crush?""

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "You going to pull an Hitler before the RF and Hunters catch ya?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "They haven't tried and failed. They tried and died."

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Soon someone is going to try and succede."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Hitler, that's the name I was thinking of."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I have too much to finish before my death."

[Radio: (D) Public] Foucalt transmits, "Too bad."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I bet Gate felt the same way."

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "He did, once, Dr. Lysander."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "He's dead now though."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Kirima Inuksuk transmits, "A shame."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "If I were a combat model, I'd love to give Doppler a good sackbeating, just for that."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Professor Gate brought it upon himself."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Forces calling for support."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "What, by uncovering your dirty secret?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Don't you DARE call it a shame! You have NO CLUE as to what the world has lost with Gate's death! Almost NONE of you do, do you hear me...not a single one of you realise how much of a tradgedy it is."

[Radio: (D) Public] Quick Man transmits, "I realized! I was the one selling the T-shirts."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I have one of those."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "And an action figure! ... You guys did a crappy job on the painting."

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "How /dare/ you, Quick Man."

[Radio: (D) Public] Quick Man transmits, "Screw you! Blame a failing global economy."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Kirima Inuksuk transmits, "You act like I was being sarcastic... I deeply respected Gate."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider clicks back on. "Is it over?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Your right, Berkana. Who knows what else he could have done...I feel bad for not apologizing for my words before he saved Alpha. I never go the chance to apologize in person."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "All available units, assist the units already in combat."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Well, I'm sure it means a promotion for someone somewhere, right?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Look on the bright side. At least he died for a good cause."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "You still have no understanding of what I did or the reasons for it. Gate meddled in things he did not wish to understand!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Well, no screaming in agony, so I guess it's over."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "GET OUT HERE DOPPLER!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I think he wished to understand, otherwise he wouldn't have meddled."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Come on Doppler, crush the little worm already."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "You killed him before he could undo your little 'Maverick switch' in other reploids. Because that would have meant loss of potential new soldiers."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, ".... now I wonder..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "No. He wished to undo what I had done. Make the reploid once again slaves of the UN."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "So what's better, Doppler? Slaves of the UN, or slaves of you?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Hmph! Your the only one makeing Slaves!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Don't worry, Doctor Doppler. I've seen Gate's research."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Doppler. I lived in your city for some time. I made sculptures of you. I was part of the society there. Why didn't you try?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves snorts.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Hrrrgh! My children are not my slaves!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "I can cure the virus, too. And I'm going to make sure that Gate didn't die for no reason."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "LIAR!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Adopted children."

[Radio: (D) Public] Crush Crawfish unslings a massive line of curses.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "That's right. Doppler's no leader. He sits back and lets his kids tell him what to do. Or rather, he did, until the biggest kid got turned into a crater."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sting Chameleon transmits, "Oh...it is gang up on the Good Doctor day I see."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "We all need to get our pot-shots in before he kicks the bucket. Because unlike Gate, no one's going to miss him when he's gone."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I am an advisor and scientist. I am regent out of necessity."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I knew my son's plans fr our future, and in spite of all of you I /will/ carry them out1"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "OOC: yes, my typing's bad. Sure me."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sting Chameleon transmits, "Well, allow me to offer a rebuttle. Virus or no...Europe or no, this revolution cannot be stopped. Say what you will now...but do not be so quick to assume victory. The Coalition for Reploid Freedom will not die."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "OOC: facedesks."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "So you don't even have plans of your own. You just follow your creations like a sheep."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Love. That's what the Mavericks lack. Love."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "I finally realized it now."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Now stop picking on old Doppler, it's not his fault he did more with his life than most of you combined. Tsk tsk tsk, such jealousy."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "No you will not! I saw what your virus did, it made a complete mockery for everything Sigma, and Kraken stand for! YOU will pay for this Doppler!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Is it wrong to follow another's dreams?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Crush Crawfish transmits, "You piece of scum human lover pansies!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Oh shut up."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "o/`Love...Sweet love....o/`"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Follow your own dreams."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "Your prattle is completely obnoxious."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I do it every day. And even though, sometimes, those dreams kick me right in the teeth, I still keep going."

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana sighs and sounds very sincere. "I miss Gate." Then a controlled icey /rage/. "You're going to /pay/, Doppler. Gate was a very good friend of mine."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits explosions in the background. "This wall WILL fall."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "My dreams? Hah! My dream has already spread across the world. My dream is my children, whoever you are. My dream gave you form and gave you life."

[Radio: (D) Public] Data Raccoon transmits, "That's what Gate gets for messing in things he shouldn't of been."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Gate was a friend? Is that why you shot him, Berkana?..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Gate was such a chump."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "... Take cover."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Status?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Oh, he was a chump all right. But that's what you get for being an idealist."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "And how would you know about that, anyway?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "My dream is a more perfect society, a world in which every reploid is free and equal!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "I've made some mistakes, Dr. Lysander. Things I can't undo. Things I'm not proud of, but I'll carry with me until my deactivation. All I can do is try to make things right. The Gate /I/ knew would have wanted it that way."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "And every human is opressed or dead. How is that equal?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "At the cost of subjugation of another life! Or rather complete eradication!? SOME world. Who would be next? The androids, no...the CYBORGS?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Feh. I read the reports. You used him like a rug, lady. He's probably better off dead."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "The cyborgs would be the first to go."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Humainty has proven itself to be critically flawed time and time again. Even without our help, they will have killed themselves off in a century or two."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Hahahaha androids dying, that's just silly."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "The Robot Masters would be converted to servants."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Eww, no way."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Reploids are based of Androids who are based of HUMANS!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Actually, androids are primarily based of AIBOs."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Doppler? You really have taken your self hate complex too far. Your human deal with it ."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "They've lived for at least two thousand of them, and we as Reploids.... how long have we had? Two decades? How can you say 'no data' equals 'better'?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Reif Falcon transmits, "Artificially intelligent body odor?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves snickers.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "No! I am no longer one of them!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Right."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man takes an Agnet style tone "Only Human, Dr. Doppler."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Let him believe what he wants. He'll be dead like all the rest."

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Those 'reports', Doctor Lysander, are highly classified and are /not/ to be talked about on this frequency."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Shut up shut up shut up!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "Leave the deranged old cyborg alone."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Then fire me for hacking, toots."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Your empire is crumbling, how does it feel to watch all your work be undone?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "No, no, AIBOs. Haven't you ever been to a museum?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Doppler is harmless. He's like Mac, only not as sucky."

[Radio: (D) Public] Reif Falcon transmits, "No."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "That's unfortunate. Repositories of culture, you know."

[Radio: (D) Public] Reif Falcon transmits, "Culture? Human culture right? not worth it. They'll be gone soon."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Regardless. AIBOs were small robotic dogs introduced in the latter half of the 20th century. They had very rudimentary motor skills and hard-coded stimulus-response behavior."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man barks s'more. Bark Barkity Bark Bark. Woof. "...This is fun."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Ultimately, we came from them."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I /will/ finish what I started! I will complete this dream!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "As you can hear, Top Man is most heavily based on these things."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Actually I like kitties better... Isn't that right, Tama-1?" "Mreoww.." "See?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Reif Falcon transmits, "Wow. Wonder what the hell we came from then. Hopefully not hose little lawn mower things that cut your grass over the course of a day without anyone tellin them what ta do."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Dream? Your dream is the nightmare of this world Doppler. Your nothing but an abomination...and a lunatic."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "So how does this newbie have access to classified reports?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "More importantly, why is he so interested in the late Professor Gate?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "WHO IS BRUCE WAYNE?!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "The Mavericks are a Virus and we are the cure..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man giggles madly.

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "No. They -have- a virus."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "BRUCE WAYNE IS BATMAN!:

[Radio: (D) Public] Barrage Raptor transmits, "Wow, Metal Man. That's so not-cliche."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "...Bat Man?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "They're not the virus themselves. Inferno Phoenix... he's no virus."

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Data Raccoon transmits, ".. Crapcrapcrapcrapcrap"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Like Shade Man, Only... cooler."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "No! It is those bastards at the UN that are diseased! They are the parasites, living off my work!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "Spiderman could beat Batman.."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "I'm trying to be cliche, Barrage. Considering the mavericks are a bit walking one, I wanted to speak on a level they would be able to process."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "The majority of your Reploid children are comming for you Doppler..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Maybe the newbie is actually Kofi Annanbot's ghost!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "OH NOES"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Nope. I'm actually a three headed chicken mechaniloid."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "They call me... Boo."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man sings, "Chicken Boooo!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "They believe what the UN tells them to believe! They refuse to see the truth for themselves! That they are being used by a race that cares nothing for them unless they are useful to their plans!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "They are trying to detonate a section of the wall."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "What's the matter with you? You don't act like the other chickens dooo o/~"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Then stop them!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "Doctor Doppler."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Doppler have I been transparent..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "... Why is it that anyone who disagrees with you is being lied to by the UN?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Guts Man transmits, "Let's cut his head off and find out."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man transmits, "What? The Miniature Giant Space Hamsters are attacking?! NOOOOOO! FLEE! I MUST FLEE!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Berkana transmits, "If Gate were alive right now he would attest that NO ONE tells /ME/ what to think!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "...I so totally don't remember the rest of the song. ANYWAYS! Wheee!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Doppler's got more logic Errors than one of Junk Man's creations"

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "But he isn't. He's dead. Carry on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I like that guy."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "What guy?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "The guy that just said something before me, nit-wit."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Oh. But a lot of people have said things before you. And before me. And before that and before that and... Hey, look, a bird!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Go spin awhile."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Wheeeeee!!!!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dust Man can be heard trying to scream the mets into battle positions. "PREPARE FOR THE HAMSTERS!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "I have done my good deed for the day!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler's voice is on edge. "The United Nations has been lying to everyone for years. Can you not see that?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "CONSPIRACY THEORY."

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Data Raccoon continues chattering rapid curses under her breath for some reason.

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Doppler, maybe if you stopped saying it like United Nations is to liar as sky is to blue, well sorta grayish now with all that soot and dust, people would believe you? Prove it instead of just spouting it over and over. Please. You'll make it a -whole- lot easier on yourself."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "The Doctor needs nothing to be easy for him. He betrays his race; he deserves his judgment."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "DUH Doppler. The UN is corrupt, it has wronged me in the past, but I fight for something more then -IT-."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I tried once, Hailstorm. I was branded a liar and a traitor."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "How did you try."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "They stole you from me, because I refused to cooperate. They wanted me to saddle reploids with control mechanisms, to make them receptive to orders from the chain of command. I refused. But I won in the end. You have free will, in spite of their best efforts!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "I don't have to be following the United Nations to disagree with your methods, Doctor Doppler."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "They are attempting to crack our traffic records! Shut down all network access!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "I HAVE free will!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Ditz Pinkmouse transmits, "*splashing sound, followed by dolphin noises* I have freed Wily! Yay!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Yes, you do. You almost didn't."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander asks, "Is this true, Doppler?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Ditz Pinkmouse transmits, "OOC: Willy"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Did they really try to put control mechanisms on reploids?

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Yes! They wanted pretty little automatons, toys that would go back in their boxes between wars!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "AlreadyOnIt!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander laughs. "Well isn't that just the icing on the cake..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "Doctor Doppler? Pot calling kettle black."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man laughs "And you proved them to be right in their fears, Doctor Doppler."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "This doesn't justify this insane war on the human race."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Enemy aware of counter efforts."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "I should be justifying it, I'm pretty close to -afraid- of them myself."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Reploids are like humans. Humans are like Reploids."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler slams his fist on the table. "Do you think I enjoy watching my children die? Do you!? It is bearable only because they fight for their beliefs, not because someone has programmed them with a command!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "They both can do good or evil. There is no point in condemning an entire race for the errors of a few."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "No. I don't think you enjoy it."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "System countermeasures are online. In process of tracking actual point of access."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "I know you didn't."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "That, I understand. That is not the issue."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I love my children, Prismatic. I could not tolerate their abuse at the hands of their so-called benevolent leaders."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "What I do NOT understand is... Why hate? Why the genocide? Why are you punishing the human race for the faults of a few?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Doppler, listen to me for a moment. You know what this war did? This war is what made me fear humanity like I do. Say I'd killed Peter when this war wasn't going on. The UN wouldn't have imprisoned me as a suspected Maverick. I wouldn't have been fought over like I was. I wouldn't have been given all the damned anti-Maverick rhetoric out of General's vocabulator I was. I would have gone through the legal system, I would have been cleared for self-defense. But no. Peter being human changed the whole equation because you insisted there was a difference and you -forced- it upon me and everyone else in my position! That is what you did!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Because the human race has proved that most of it is not worth saving."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Maybe Doppler's not so wrong."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Tell me, Sigmund. You do not belive in God... Then why have you set yourself up to take his place?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Who are you to judge a race?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Good point. The fact that Mavericks exist has made everyone paranoid."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Hailstorm, if not for the Mavericks, you would have simply been deactivated and culled as a rague unit, without benefit of imprisionment."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "The UN's laws prohibit that."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Who are you to decide who lives and who dies? Who is worthy and who is not? What faults are forgivable and what will damn you?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander asks, "You call us your children, Doppler. Then be a responsible parent. Tell your kids to stop playing rough with all the other kids."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Even after this war, people will be predjusticed against Reploids more then before. All because of you."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Why do you think those laws are in place? Because we forced them to change their ways!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Wily looks after his creations. He's never lost a single one of us."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander asks, "Oh really."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Except they were put into place before the Mavericks even -existed-."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "Well, Metal Man, he's driven at least two of his force commanders away."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Well, that's not -our- problem. Anyways, Dad's still a much better parents than Doppler."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "You cannot fortell the future."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Who am I? Who am I? I am no god. A force of nature, perhaps, but not a god. I fight because I know that the reploid is superior and will supplant humanity."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "And people wonder why Neo Arcadia exists."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "You are human, Doctor Doppler. You are a flawed being. A flawed being cannot create a perfect one."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Those were human laws. Reploids were not even considered sentient beings until we forced the issue!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "How can you say they're superior!? How can anything build something better in every way than itself!?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "Physically, robots are typically superior to humans."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Physically. I said in -every way-."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "In every way? Everything has flaws. You could argue that nothing is any better than anything else."

[Radio: (D) Public] Metal Man transmits, "Prismatic's right."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "That's the point."

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Hmmm.."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "If reploids are not also intellectually superior, then why has the UN chosen to employ so many reploid researchers?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "And even then. If we are superior, then why should we kill the inferior one? And don't give me evolution and all that crap, we're not animals."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "Because they can be replaced."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "Yup."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "You can just build another reploid if you really need to. It's not a personal issue at all."

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "Humans are animals, actually."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Lysander transmits, "We're cheap, easy to maintain, and completely disposable!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Wheeee!!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Pinned down in north Berlin. Wight Squad, request immediate backup. Holding position at <OOC: coordinates>."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Vile transmits, "Magma Dragoon is out of commission. Moving on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Because due to our nature, we are very good as specialization and adaptation."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "These qualities are very useful in the sciences."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "We can think thousands of times as -fast-. But we can't think -better-. Just faster."

[Radio: (D) Public] A whispered voice transmits, "... you failed, Dopper... you failed..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Blues transmits, "... Who is that?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Which is better than human nature, which prefers to smash anything they do not understand, rather than research it."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Incorrect."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Then we wouldn't exist."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "If it were that simple, they never would have left the Dark Ages, let alone have you come along and design us."

[Radio: (D) Public] A whispered voice transmits, "....whisper a prayer for the dead."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Yes, I concede there are a few exceptions, and their works have dragged the rest of their kind kicking and screaming into progress."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "In fact, all of the greatest Doctors alive right now are human. None of the Reploid researchers active right how with the possible exception of Professor Gate have attained such high esteem."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "... But why can't I just flip your definitions - the rule of smash and the exception of study?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "They are this generation's exceptions. Not one of them has escaped the abuse of the masses."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Requesting IMMEDIATE support at Berlin teleporters. Explosive devices, potential network intrusion, requesting immediate heavy backup."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, ".. they look like the rule to me."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Explosions? Didn't one already go off?"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Stop them! Support teams, to the teleporter hub. We. Need. More. Time."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "/Bombs/."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "And the Reploid 'masses' are any different?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "They too are manipulated by propaganda and incited to mob behavior by those willing to exploit them."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Imminent threat. Executing."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle's signal strength suddenly spikes downward, then comes right back up to normal.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Yes! They have the capacity to make themselves better than they are, to improve themselves both physically and intellectually."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "Countermeasure still active. Keeping access to minimum so far.. unable to make a complete access block..."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "Taking matter into personal effort... this is gonna sting..."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Hold."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Both human and mechanical life are capable of that, Doppler."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "Oh, I'm not going to -attack-. That'd be suicidal."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Bury me with my mask on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Humanity is notoriously poor at it."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider, acerbically: "It's not so /easy/ as pushing some buttons and downloading a little patch into them, Doppler."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Vile transmits, "Moving to engage."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon, a second later: "Network threat neutralized. Beginning evasive. Wight Squad, request immediate bomb squad support."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Errrgh."

[Radio: (D) Public] Ditz Pinkmouse transmits, "Yeah, sometimes sewing is involved!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Squeek!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "... *snort* Someone out there's angry."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "KILL THE POWER!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Someone clears his throat. Someone familiar. "You claim to be trying to uplift and protect your sacred reploid children, Doctor Dopper. But on the other hand, you kill one of the most brilliant of them. And for what? For finding away to allow your children to do what you /claimed/ to want for them all along. To rise up, to grow up, and to become their own race. You do not seek children that will grow up one day and leave the nest, to spread their wings and fly to the heights of their abilities. You seek bound and helpless toddlers, who implicitly believe what you tell them, who never question you, and whom you can beat, swindle, trick or manipulate into doing whatever you want."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Who -is- that?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Liar! THAT'S NOT TRUE!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "THEN WHY DID YOU SEND DOUBLE TO KILL ME?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "....!"

[Radio: (D) Public] LightFamily Dr. Light transmits, "DUN DUN DUN!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Aaah it's alive!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Barrage Raptor transmits, "Nobody really dies around here any more."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Geez, make death even -worse- why don't you..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Impressive."

[Radio: (D) Public] Enker transmits, "....Interesting."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, ".....SHINY."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "... Shiny?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Shiny, where are youuu!!!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "What about shiny?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Because it was the only way to stop you! Your work, misguided as it may be, would have undone all that I have tried to do to protect my children!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Your children no longer need you, Doctor."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Let us _GO_."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "How about you lay off, Doctor, and let your children decide for themselves."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Even now, you are stripping those you capture, forcing your so-called cure upon them even if they do not want it!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Enker |Click

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Perhaps if I controlled my children, as you continue to claim, the world would be a much different place."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "And so far, we have had thousand upon thousands of grateful reploids who have been happy to be rid of your influence."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Oh snap!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "You're no better than the UN, Doppler, no matter your good intentions."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Given one of the common side effects of your 'Virus' is to make them not WANT to get rid of it, Doppler, I don't think you have much room to stand on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "... thank GOD I never got it..."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Wire Sponge transmits, "Status?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Then tell me. How many of them still hate mankind?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Hate?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "... you could argue I hate them."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "You can hate people without needing a virus to back it up."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Some do. Some do not. But now at least it is their true choice instead of being decided and reinforced for them."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "It was their choice before! Unlike you, I did not force this upon them. They came to me, I offered it to them, and they accepted."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "You clapped them in digital manacles and put virtual blinders upon them!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "How can it have been their choice before if the Virus forces them to make that choice?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Choice? Cyber Peacock -deceived- my children! I will have them back from you, Doppler. I SWEAR it!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "It's wired to blow when they get a half-mile away! STOP THEM!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "I was giving them sight! I gave them the chance to see humanity for what it really is!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Your vision of humanity is as warped as your logic."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "You shattered my family and kidnapped my sons, you bastard!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "For what -you- call 'what it really is'."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "you know my sympathies. Know that I trust a human, then."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Who gave you the _RIGHT_ to take my children from me? You cry so hard about how the UN took your children from you, what are you doing now? TELL ME, DOPPLER."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Your.... children, Gate?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Metal Shark and Ground Scarab are my sons. Taken from me by the deception of Cyber Peacock."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "It was not deception. Itwas a presentation of the truth."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Data Raccoon transmits, "Killingthepowergridblewoutsomeofmyownrelays,Ican'tbuildenoughpowertocompletelyincapitatethemfromleaving!"

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Get out of here!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "What 'truth'?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Wild Fungus transmits, "The truth is what you know"

[Radio: (D) Public] Wild Fungus transmits, "Everything you believe in is probably a lie."

[Radio: (D) Public] Wild Fungus transmits, "At least as far as the other guy is concerned, so it doesn't really matter."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Professor Gate. Since you seem utterly convinced that I am a swine, and my work to the The Great Evil, then if you truly wish to understand what you fight against, then infect yourself with the Virus. You have the cure, so you know its effects can be reversed."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "... how would he do that?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Technically, the virus can be reverse-engineered from the cure."

[Radio: (D) Public] Barrage Raptor transmits, "If he knows how to turn off the Virus, I assume he can turn it back on."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Hmm....."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "That is an interesting proposition."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Gate, don't fall for that trick."

[Radio: (D) Public] Wild Fungus transmits, "Meh, I think you're just a sad old man"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "I'll infect myself with the virus when you take out all your cybernetics, Doppler. Fair's fair."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "That would be much more fatal for me than it would be for you."

[Radio: (C) Mav-Sec] Tactical Raccoon transmits, "Too many bombs! The teleporters are a loss! FALL BACK! IT'S GOING TO BLOW!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Andrew Creeves transmits, "I can see it now: The Maverick virus used as a recreation drug."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "I'd be destroyed by Maverick Hunters. How is that any less fatal?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "You are a scientist. Surely a controlled environment means something to you?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Better yet. I'll accept the virus when you allow me sever the connections in your corpus collosum. After all, if you get to tinker with /my/ brain, I can experiment on yours, right?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "You simply wish to hasten my death. Understandable, given the circumstances."

[Radio: (D) Public] Gate transmits, "Considering that you were all too willing to assure mine...."

[Radio: (D) Public] Wood Man transmits, "Sounds like a few somebodies need a few wilybeers."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler gives a long-suffering sigh. "Well. I hope you have enjoyed this exercse in futility."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Hehehe! I did!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "It really would cause the least amount of suffering for all involved if you simply surrender, Doctor."

[Radio: (D) Public] Hailstorm Eagle transmits, "Prismatic! That's the same thing all the wilybots are arguing."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Doppler transmits, "It is too late for that, Prismatic. It would not change anything."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "They're actually talking logic for once? Gasp! Shock!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "That's not in my dictionary...."

[Radio: (D) Public] Wood Man transmits, "Mister Tom liked it, but it needs a car chase." "NERP!" "And some bongo music." "NERP!" "During the chase, of course."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man giggles.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "~o/ Swing low... sweet chariot... coming for to carry me... /o~"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass plays a sound effect of a tin cup banging on bars.

[Radio: (D) Public] Foucalt snickers

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan plays the sound of a firing squad.

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Kirima Inuksuk transmits, "...Doctor Xiang, dare I ask?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Foucalt transmits, "Hear that? It's the world's smallst violin."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "What a horrible sound."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "The singing? I know."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Mmm. Actually, I'm not that bad - as for the firing squad... well, that is possible. One wonders if they'll spare the side of my psyche that turned me in, or execute me."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Not a simple situation, hmm?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "It never is."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "They'll kill you."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Quite possibly."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "If you aren't shanked in prison."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "I imagine they'll say you detonated anthrax inside your head or something."

[Radio: (D) Public] Wood Man transmits, "Did you ask for Mattlock?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "They'll never let me in the general prison population, Fairy Leviathan."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan laughs.

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "Anthrax, something so outdated."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "True. But that doesn't mean a guard won't shank you."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "It's a shame, Dr. Xiang. I never did get to send those last few prisoners over."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Kirima Inuksuk transmits, "A shame.. I wish we could have actually met to compare notes, Doctor Xiang."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Mmm. You see, this is why I suspect Cheng turned us over to Vorliakal's organization - obsessed with justice, he has cameras and people he trusts watching his prisoners."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "You know, I've heard of 'suicide by cop'. I wonder if there's a 'suicide by Bass'."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Oh, do send them anyhow Bass. My people will know what to do with them."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Oh? Splendid!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "We need to empty out some storage space for our ill-gotten gains."

[Radio: (D) Public] Top Man transmits, "Wheee!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Don't you mean 'rightfully collected taxes'?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "Remember boys. Pillage first, then burn."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Bass is refreshingly honest about the nature of his actions. He just doesn't care."

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "Though, if you somehow mix it up, you deserve the consequence."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "There are few automatons I respect. Bass is one."

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] A massive explosion rips through the northern half of Berlin, epicentered on the teleporter building. Massive gravity distortions are read in the area, probably caused by gravity-based weaponry, as well as considerable conventional explosives. Shrapnel is falling over a half-mile radius around the building. Unknown casualities.

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "Can you not use that word?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "If nothing else but for his sintilating conversation and brutal honesty."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "True, Spider. It seems I wasn't quite as honest - with myself. I find it amazing that I failed to realize what my Cheng persona was up to - and how developed he had become."

[Radio: (D) Public] Vile grunts. Explosions rip through the background.

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "And there's the other."

[Radio: (D) Public] Vile transmits, "(OOC: INTERRUPT'D!)"

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Grrrrgh. Medical teams 8 and 10, rescue the wounded!"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Soi you have developed multiple personality disorder, Doctor Xiang?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Glaive transmits, "Hmph...another victory for us. There is no escape now mavericks."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "It would appear so."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "What's wrong with the term automaton?..."

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "The A-word is a really offensive racial slur."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "Well, everyone already says I'm a racist. Among other things."

[Radio: (D) Public] Rajura Doji transmits, "Meh"

[Radio: (D) Public] Sage Harpuia transmits, "Honestly, Fairy Leviathan, we're to be much more refined than that."

[Radio: (D) Public] Rajura Doji transmits, "They're infinitely more likeable than the reploid race"

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Do you find the occurance regrettable, Doxtor?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Vile hisses, jamming at controls, "It seemed to be you running away, Hunters. Did I graze Magma's neural net too badly?"

[Radio: (D) Public] Rajura Doji transmits, "unpredictable machine monstrousities"

[Radio: (D) Public] Bass transmits, "I mean, I don't use nasty language to refer to /you/."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "Oh, ruin all my fun, Harpuia."

[Radio: (D) Public] Dr. Nathan Xiang transmits, "Considering that he has landed me in prison, away from my support and work? Yes, it is regrettable."

[Radio: (D) Public] Prismatic Spider transmits, "Come now, tell us how you REALLY feel, sir."

[Radio: (D) Public] Fairy Leviathan transmits, "Well then. Consider me thoroughly chastened, Bass."

[Radio: (B) Mav-Main] Dr. Doppler transmits, "Send damage control teams. I have work to do...much to do..."
