"Inadequate."

>Ouranos says, as he tosses another set of damaged circuitry boards to the floor. He stands in the middle of a large research laboratory, flanked by several scientists.

"Lord Ouranos, we are not making any progress with the Meta-Gene mapping project! The data has been empirically derived multiple times!"

>A scientist with blonde hair continues scrambling to show information to Ouranos - moving quickly through images on his datapad as he continues speaking.

"The codon sequences inscribed in the Meta-Gene have been catalogued properly! Decades of research, with the same general conclusion!"

>Holding up the datapad straight to Ouranos's mask, the scientist then shouts:

"I won't have killed her, Elias, that blood is on your hands."

>Hiyuki responds, unblinking.

"Besides, death may be a relief to her, it certainly is for some."

"Still, I am awfully unimpressed, I was told that you're an intelligent man, Elias."

>Hiyuki looks up at Chiral, keeping eye contact with him.

"Even with what little I know of the one who brought you back, I can tell that they won't destroy the Meta-Gene research, it would simply be more valuable to them than you are."

"After all, they can likely make a thousand of you, each time feeding them the same lie of destroying work that they can use to make more like you, to replace you if you get too problematic."

"Had you not considered that, Elias?"

>Out loud, he then says:

"Of course I have, Hiyuki."

>Dropping Esper down with his telekinesis, he relinquishes his hold on her as he says:

"I suppose I should not have underestimated you."

>At that moment, Hollow breaks out of the space-time distortion trap, panting heavily.

>The light of the Sun continues to radiate onto the large expanse, as a figure in white clothing continues quickly moving from hill to hill.

"Are you finished?"

>Aiden then moves forward - flying in the air at incalculable speeds as he rushes to meet the impossibly large celestial object - as it barrels towards him.

>Catching the star with one finger, he then makes a single tapping motion with his hand - as bright red light courses through the star, exploding it in the biggest explosion ever seen.

"What the-"

>Before he can react, Ethan is suddenly kicked to the ground with such force, that his body begins slowly disintegrating. The sheer force of the attack is enough to weaken Ethan's body, and cause him to slowly destabilize over time.

>As Aiden now stands before him, hands still in his jacket pockets, he places a boot on Ethan's chest to keep him from moving.

>As Placebo is hauled away into the brig - a whole slew of advanced equipment is brought into the MRD's loading bay area. As the large trucks carry the acquired resources and technology, Chase stands in the middle of the driveway - watching as the cars come into the loading bay.

"Long day?"

"No really. I'm genuinely asking."

>Sighing, Chase flicks through the pages on his datapad - real time data and reports on the state of Sanctuary City. As he does so, he then says:

"You'd be surprised. Not really. It was easier given the literal army of vigilantes that helped us. Never thought I'd be saying that out loud."

"I'll help you through it, Sammy. Just as I said. You're a much better person than you give yourself credit for - and you can't keep doing this to yourself."

>Suddenly, a gloved hand grabs onto the blade from seemingly nowhere, as a figure says:

"Uh uh. Not to the gentleman over here."

>Ryūsei looks on in surprise as he sees the figure of Mosaic standing before him.

"What-"

>Mosaic then lightly gestures with his wrist - flicking the woman backward with a tap. As he does so, he then nods at Suisei, stating:

"She was the one who called. Her 'voice' was urgent, so I decided to get here as soon as I could."

>Mosaic looks over to see Suisei crossing her arms. As her face turns red, she then mutters in English:

>The woman stops almost immediately as the momentum is applied, not heading back nearly as far as she would normally, but still takes a step back under her own volition, assessing the newcomer.

"You have bought yourself time, star spawn, but I will correct your abberation in the song. . ."

>The woman throws her blade into the ground, embedding it into the floor.

"The same applies to you, Mind, you cannot run free forever, brother."

>As she finishes the sentence, the woman begins fading away in a fractal pattern.

"Beware the capricious nature of these creatures, their removal would have been for the protection of humanity."

>With no further words to add, the woman disappears completely, her blade soon shattering into a cloud of diamond dust.

>Looking around for a moment, Mosaic then coughs into his fist as he then says:

"Well. Erm. It was nice meeting you again Suisei. You too, Ryūsei."

>Mosaic says as he holds out his arm for Ryūsei to shake it. As he does so, he then wonders:

"….Tanaka….We need to get her back."

>Blinking, Mosaic then states:

"Oh your subordinate? She's outside of the building. In fact, she should be making her way here right about now."

>Suisei looks at Mosaic for a moment, staring at him intently. Afterwards, she then coughs into her own fist as she says:

>Silent for a moment, Ryūsei then walks towards the entrance of the office area, stating:

"I'm going to go check on Miss Tanaka."

>Raising her eyebrow, Suisei then states:

"You heard from Mosaic, she is fine. Is she not?"

>Hesitating, Ryūsei then says:

"It is not just her physical well-being that is my concern. It is her mental well-being as well. This encounter must have been incredibly traumatic for her. I need to make sure that she is of a sound mind."

>Suisei sighs, crossing her arms as she states:

"Are you sure you want to do that?"

>As she moves a pair of plates from the dining table towards the kitchen - Stella continues speaking to Aiden.

"I already have a lot on my plate, I know. But still. It's a good move. Besides….."

>Aiden looks off at the window - seeing brief portions of the city skyline in the far distance.

"I haven't seen him in a very long time. That's my own fault, before you ask."

>Giving a soft smile, Stella then walks back towards Aiden and puts her hands on his shoulders as she leans in from behind.

>Location: The Charon - San Francisco
>Time: 8:00 PM

"….So you want me to do what?"

>Chimera says, fixing a series of components on a workbench inside of his large mobile fortress. The Charon remains hovering over the night skies of San Francisco's Bay Area, as Chimera refines his handiwork. The component sockets of Chimera's blaster weapon are then fitted with plasma cells - before he stands up and turns around.

>Mosaic, leaning on the wall nearby and with his arms crossed, says:

"I want you to make as much noise as possible to draw Eukaryon out. There's a good chance that they're going to try and compromise the shuttle launch that Yoshimura Corporation has planned next week."

>Thinking for a moment, Chimera then states:

"Oh I get it. I'm their number one priority, so you want to see if I can drag them out - like a moth to a flame."

>Aiden finishes up his reading at his desk - still sitting inside of his den. As he does so, he hears a knock on the door.

"Stella, it's fine. You can come in."

>As the door slowly opens, Stella walks in - with a sad expression on her face.

"….Aiden. There's something that you need to know."

>Slowly getting out of his chair, Aiden turns to face Stella, saying:

"I already know."

>Stella feels moved by Aiden's revelation, then closes her eyes. Bringing her hand to her chest, she then says:

"….Then you know that I can't do this to you in good conscience."

>Aiden sighs and looks away, feeling somewhat hurt at her statement.

"Yeah…..I know. You want it to be genuine, don't you?"

>Stella shakes her head, stating:

"Aiden. You will always have a place in my heart no matter what. But I can't lead you along - not when you've been nothing but truthful to me."

>Aiden interjects at that moment:

>Aiden then looks at Stella and says:

"…..If you need space, that's fine. I understand that. But I was just willing to make this work, no matter what."

>Stella looks surprised as Aiden continues speaking:

"…..Really? Even after everything that I've done? After lying to you from the start?"

>Aiden looks at Stella, dead in the eyes. The intensity of his eyes takes Stella by surprise.

>A few minutes later, Aiden is sitting in his bedroom as he looks at his phone. He then sees the number in his contacts - a number he hasn't called in years.

>Silent, he then closes his eyes for a moment before he then dials the number. The dialer tone hangs for a second before the call connects.

["Hello? Is that you, Aiden?"]

>Aiden leans back in his bed and looks up at the ceiling - now with an empty pillow set beside him. As he does so, he then says:

"Hey, Ryūsei. I haven't called you on this number in five years. I know we just talked earlier today but…."

>Leaning back up in his bed, he then continues to speak:

"….You mind wanting to chat for a bit? Before I get ready for bed?"
