Part 1: The greatest carnival ever?
Neo and his group stood outside the carnival's limits as they looked over the place. Neo held his hand in his pocket and turned his head. "So...the greatest carnival ever huh?"

"Doesn't it look amazing?!" Echo asked. "I'm so excited to go on one of the rides!"

"I've always liked carnivals, myself." Jazz mentioned.

"As long as they have good food here, I'm good." Zero said with a smile. "I've always liked carnival food."

"I don't really get these kind of things." Vorpa said and scratched the back of her head. "What's the point of them?"

Neo shrugged, he didn't really know the point of them either. He pulled out his wallet and said, "Alright, I suppose we can spend a night at the carnival."

"Neo, remember how I said your like my BFF? Well, you got upgraded to cousin." Zapor said.

Zak sat on Zapor's head. "Neo, can we order room service in the hotel?"

"That Zapor and Blade are totally paying for.." Lexi muttered.

A lynx ran to the entrance, waiving to two other girls as she talked in...Spanish? The two waved her on as the lynx entered the park quickly.

Meanwhile a blue BMW convertible parked nearby, as none other than the famous Annabelle Rich and friends got out. "It's time for a bit of R&R ladies..." Annabelle smirked to Kristy and Christian.

"Looks like we're not the only ones either." Neo muttered to himself. "Alright let's get going."

"Oh wow, it's Annabelle Rich!" Echo pointed out.

"Who?" Trinity asked.

"Uh...she's a celebrity. Since you're a bit of a foreigner you probably wouldn't know..." Neo told the unicorn.

"Ok, let's get on one of the rides! I heard someone died on one of them!" Zapor said.

(Sorry I'm taking so long to post, I'm waiting for everyone. -Neo)

"That doesn't sound healthy..." Neo muttered.

"Which one then?" Zero asked.

"That one!" Zapor pointed to a roller coaster with spikes and about 25 dives and 50 loops in it, with some parts being on fire. "Isn't it amazing?"

As Annabelle and the others headed for the entrance, they were flanked by some fans with cameras asking questions quickly as they entered.

"Well, it sounds fun, but you people say you lose your spine and other bones....Which only makes me want to ride it more!" Blade said.

"Uhh, I think I'd rather keep my skeleton all in one piece... and in my body..." Prairie said, appearing to be rather skittish about the idea.

"Oh yeah, you can regenerate and grow parts back..which is why it's good kirbys don't have bones!" Zapor said.

"I wanna try the food court! They say they got kirby foods!" Zak said.

"Prairie...has a point..." Neo said.

"I am kind of hungry though." Jazz agreed with Zak.

"Well then, let's go over there." Zero said, though he stopped and eyed a booth that involved shooting balloons with a fake gun. "Actually, hold on." Zero threw his jacket at Trinity. "I wanna try this." he rushed over to the booth and got ready to play it.

Trinity scowled and dug around trying to get the jacket situated until she stopped and pulled a small box out, inside the box, was a golden ring with a bright pink jewel at the top. Trinity's eyes widened as she looked at the object. "Is...is Zero getting married?" Trinity asked.

"Meh, he's getting a lot of important life changing things. We're going to the food court!" Zak said. He grabbed Trinity, Zapor, Echo, and Blade and rushed to the food court.

Lexi was rushing to the roller coaster line (the same one Zapor mentioned) and jumped up and down with anticipation.

"Hey, wait!" Argent called out to Lexi, running after her. "I'll never hear the end of it if I let something happen to one of mom's disciples!"

Neo grabbed Trinity before Zak could take off with her, leaving the two of them spinning, and then stopping them. "That ring...Could I just have it?" Neo tries to take the ring from Trinity, but she pulls it back.

"Who is Zero getting married to?" She asks.

Neo sighs. "He isn't...not anymore..."

"I think what he means to say is that it's been put on hold." Masako said. This may or may not have been a lie; if it was, it was a lie that she honestly believed in. She had the right to believe whatever she wanted, after all.

At the food court, there were a couple of servers handing out kirby foods. When Zak finally put Zapor, Blade, and Echo down, a chef gave them 4 boxes with kirby foods that were slightly moving. When Blade opened his box, he nearly puked. "Guys, there's a Waddle Dee in box. And it's still alive."

Zak was already eating his. "Yeah? Kirby's eat Waddle Dees all the time. Don't worry, these ones are suicidical."

"I don't understand..." Trinity said. "What...what happened to her?"

Neo sighed and spoke slowly. "Sometimes people...they just disappear right off the face of this planet, but they always leave traces." Even though he was talking about Zero and Leah, the ring that Zero was indeed going to use to propose to Leah, his thoughts drifted from them and somehow, for some reason, they wanted to focus on his own lost love, on Tailsalyn. "Little things that no one can account for; Faces in photos, pieces of luggage, forgotton weapons, old places...rings..." Neo took a deep, long breath. "No one is forgotten completely. Just like, not every person is gone forever. If something is remembered it can come back, and if someone has ever held a very special place in your heart, then they will come back."

Trinity gave the ring back to Neo. "Well...I hope she was nice...your friend..."

Neo looked down a little and took the ring, he looked up and didn't realize that Zero overheard all of that. The blue hedgehog was holding a rubik's cube that he won from the game and glared at Neo. "You know for a fact that that idea is a lie. All that it has left and all that it will leave is pain." He took the jacket from Trinity and pulled the ring out of Neo's hands, then turned around and advanced furthur into the fair, leaving the group there.

Lexi came back to the group with her hair up and her with a smile on her face. "That. Was. AWESOME!! I felt G-force in my face, and Argent screamed like a sissy!" She said that right when Argent was coming back, looking a combination of scared and shocked.

The three spanish speaking girls talked back and forth with smiles as the played at a shooting gallery. The blue leopard smirked as she clapped her hands, and picked out a prize, before rubbing it in the chihuahua and the lynx's faces.

"I-I was not screaming! I was merely enjoying the ride the only way I knew how!" Argent lied.

Rose sighed. "Just humor him, Lexi. Anyway, we'd better get after Zero... you remember what Elder said. We should have tabs on Zero at all times."

Zak came back with Echo and Blade, but Blade was dragging Zapor. "Yeah, when they meant kirby foods, they meant Waddle Dees and stuff. Zapor fainted when he bit into it." Blade said.

"I don't know what the deal is. We eat hot dogs." Zak said in a defensive manner.

"Anyways, what happed?" Blade asked.

"I went on that one roller coaster, Argent screamed and cried like a baby (I got pictures), and Zero left and we were about to go get him." Lexi said.

Argent growled, losing his cool. "You little sh--"

"Argent." Rose scolded. "Lexi, just leave him be. Otherwise I might be tempted to slug you."

"It would be best..." Neo sighed.

"He went towards the main plaza." Echo murmered, causing Trinity to give her an odd look.

"We haven't even gotten maps yet...how do you know that?" The unicorn asked the girl.

Echo shrugged. "I think I saw something on TV about it..." She partially lied.

Vorpa nodded. "Alright, let's head down there."

When the group continuted to go down they found a lot of odd looking people and lots of really gross looking food, but Zero couldn't be seen. It was odd for the hedgehog to go missing like that.

"I don't like this..." Trinity glared around.

"He probably just went home." Neo shrugged. "I mean, it was kind of a bad moment."

"Well...I'm gonna go this way..." Vorpa said and headed off towards a brick building.

"I'm gonna come with you..." Echo said and followed.

"Where are they going?" Trinity asked.

"The restroom." Jazz muttered and sighed. "Now then, can anyone, like, climb anything to get a good view?"

"I'll climb." Zak said.

"I'm gonna go see if he's in any of the lines." Zapor said, and ran off.

"I'll check the food courts. Stress can throw off the brain's neurochemistry in a lot of different ways, and irregular eating habits are a typical reaction." Masako said, heading off in a direction.

"She means stress eating, right?" Anderson asked.

Blade nods. "That or he might've went to a part of the park where he might think of Leah the most..which makes me feel worse..I'll just shut up now."

"Ok, Lexi you stay here unless he comes back. Bang-Bang will stay if you need any cover." Zak said.

"Right...stay in the fair..with clowns...and makeup artists..." Lexi said.

"You got something against Clowns, kid?" Anderson asked.

"No..maybe..I can't tell anymore." Lexi said.

"She has a fear of clowns..*snickers* and people who do carnival makeup because somehow it makes her think those people aren't the same person." Zak said.

"Forget the clowns for a second." Neo said. "We need to keep looking. TJazz, can you go check on Vorpa and Echo?"

Jazz nodded and left for the brick house, after a couple of minutes, she came back running. "Guys! I can't find them!"

"What do you mean, you can't find them?" Neo asked.

"They probably just went to another part of the carnival." Trinity waved it off.

Jazz shook her head, and held out a few items. A green saber, a deck of card being held in a card holder, and a golden necklace. "I found these in there."

"Vorpa's sword, Echo's cards, and the necklace Fate always wore." Neo noted. "Something's wrong."

"Yeah, I checked to see what Zapor was doing, and he wasn't on any of the rides, which is pretty typical but he dropped his goggles! He never goes a day without them!" Zak said.

"This is bad... I gotta go warn sis about this!" Prairie said, darting off towards the food courts.

"This is my concern too. If Masako's in trouble, I can't afford to stand idly!" Ikiru said, dashing off after Prairie.

"Whaddya say Rose? Think we'll find something if we investigate?" Anderson said.

"Whether we do or we don't, we have to try. Come on!" Rose said, rushing off to the brick building.

"What is WITH this place...?" Annabelle scoffed lightly as she looked around,"A bit to lame for my taste to be completely honest..."

"Agreed..." Kristy whispered down.

Prairie and Ikiru quickly returned, but Masako wasn't in tow... Prairie was grasping Masako's blade and magatama necklace in her hands. She looked sad and scared, and about to cry.

"There can be no doubt about it now. There is an evil force amongst us." Ikiru growled.

"Crud, they stole Masako?! First Echo and Vorpa, then Zapor, then Masako?! We have to do something..Blade? Blade?!" Zak called out Blade's name again.

"There, there, darling." Jazz somforted Praire. "Everything will be okay."

"This doesn't seem good." Trinity growled. "Is Zero tied to all of this?"

"I don't think so." Neo said warily. "I think there is something else in all of this."

A man, in a large red hat and a red, comical suit approached the group. He had a long twisty mustache and walked with a cane. "Excuse me, are you the Tranquil family and friends?"

"I suppose you could say that..." Neo said. "Why are you asking?"

"Well you see, we have a special request for you." The man said. "You see, I am the carnival master, I run the carnival here and we have a special surprise for you." He pulled his cane up and started fishing through his pockets. "Tell me something, do you believe in magic?" He quickly used his other hand and thrust his cane forward, jabbing Neo with it and causing a large electrocution, knocking Neo out. "I hope you do, because that's what it's gonna take to get you lot out of here. You're all coming with me."

"What the hell?" Trinity asked, trying to pull a throwing knife out of her pocket, only to be stopped by anohter man holding a large sword.

"Don't even think about it." The man said and flashed a G.U.N badge. "You're all under arrest."

"For what, not being in an organization with a bunch of homewreckers and bastards?!" Lexi said.

"For being an accomplice to two agents who have broken the law several times, for destruction of G.U.N property, and for kidnapping and holding the Echo project hostage." The carnival master said.

"Gah, you evildoer! I shall punish you!" Ikiru shouted, raising his blades.

"Flames down, hotshot! What if this whole place is a setup? You'd be clashing blades with an entire military branch!" Anderson warned.

"We did those things cuz you guys were doing stupid stuff. So tell one good thing that was going to come out of doing any of those things!" Zak said.

"The Echo Project was going to cure illnesses." The carnival master said. "That was all we were told when the project was proposed to us by the Engineering Team, and now you've stolen her before she could be finished."

"Your point of why we should believe anything your saying? You guys are the villains in this equation." Zak said.

"We're the villains?" Carnival master asked. "You've stolen a project that was meant to help other people live, you run around with several convicts and enemies of the government. I know you've worked with Agent Destiny, who went rogue and murdered everyone on the project, and you have the nerve to call us the bad guys? You destroyed towns and civilizations, you've ruined government funded work and research, and you've lead several people to their deaths. The princess of the Chao born has been assumed dead thanks to you lot, and the entire country is in chaos. You've ruined several people's lives, including the family of Visor the Wolf, and you've caused some of our property, meant to help others, to be destroyed. You're not heroes, your monsters." He looked over to his ally. "Take them to the prison."

"Are we missing something...?" The lynx whispered to the chihuahua from afar. The leopard cocked an eyebrow as she looked on as well.

"The real question is, do we care?" The leopard said, as the lynx shrugged.

"Hmph...I knew this place would be a dead zone..." Annabelle mumbled from afar as she and the others looked on,"I wish those idiot refugees would get out of the way so I can enjoy the show..."

Part 2: Under the Carnival
The group of G.U.N agents lead everyone down into a jail cell, locking the doors securly and making sure that they were locked. The door and bars were made out of titanium, and would be hard to break through. Everyone who went missing was there, and then some. Zero sat in the back corner, turning his rubiks cube top, so that the colors never lined up. Vorpa sat in the corner, her head down, and there even was some new people. Also in the cell was the scruffy clothed young boy who could turn into a scythe, the same one that Reynore used against the group. Echo wasn't with the group though.

"So, your here." Zero said grimly from his chair.

Masako sat next to Vorpa, all bundled up in her kimono and tapping a sandalled foot on the ground.

"Sis!" Prairie ran up to Masako, hugging her.

Masako responded back with a hug. "It's alright... we're all in this together, right?" She looked toward the others.

Lexi cleared her throat. "So, we're in jail."

"You know, I would be totes cool with me being in jail, it be weird that you guys are here, but the thing that gets me the most is they put us in here on false charges...minus me. AND they take Echo to the other room!" Zapor said.

"Those bars are tough, it's gonna take a lot to get them rid of them." Vorpa muttered and stared off at the bars. "Looks like we're gonna wait here for a while."

"....I'm sorry..." Spirit said.

"Did you do this to us?" Vorpa asked.

"No...but I'm still sorry..." Spirit looked down. "I don't want any one to get in trouble..."

Neo sighed. "Well I have good news and I have bad news..." Neo said. "For now, we're gonna have to fight our way out of here. That's the bad news." He shuffled through his jacket. "But I have the fusion necklaces and the fusion bracelets. We can use them to fuse with someone, but it has to be our heaviest hitters."

"And they have to have resonized together..." Vorpa reminded him. "So...who is that?"

Neo thought for a moment. "I suppose...Zapor, Masako, myself, and...I don't know."

"Why not Zero?" Jazz asked. "From what I'm told, Nero is pretty powerful."

"It's because he doesn't trust me right now." Zero said, still turning the top of his rubik's cube. "He's scared of me."

"Zapor." Neo said, ignoring Zero's comment. "Masako and I have a strong resonance after our battle with Warlock, so you're the odd man out. Who do you think you can fuse with?"

Zapor shrugged. "I guess I could fuse with Zak."

"A Mobian and a Kirby fusing together? Somehow, I have a hard time trying to picture what the end result would be..." Argent said.

"If only Echo were here... I'm sure if you fused with her, you could take on the world." Rose said.

"I need Susano'o if we want to make the most of our fusion." Masako said. "Neo, do you know what powers will be available to us without my blade?"

"I don't." Neo said and put the necklace on, and threw the other to Masako, then threw the two bracelets to Zapor. "But now's the time to find out."

"Wait, we're fusing now?!" Zak said, but Zapor just forced a bracelet on his hand. "Let's flipping be like Gogeta!" Zapor said.

Masako slipped the necklace on and straightened it out. "So, what do we call this one, Neo?"

Neo started to glow as he thought. "I don't know..." He was pulled together and fused with Masako, creating a green femine fox wearing a black mail kimono. It's hands glowed golden with power and his facial features and body type easily classified it as femine. Nasako was ready.

(Masako, you got this one too! -Neo)

Zapor put on the fusion bracelet. Zapor and Zak then merged together making a light blue hedgehog with orange shoes, with red quils. "I still feel like Zapor. Zak, what about you? Yeah, lets just call it Zazak."

A second voice cam from Zazak, it belonged to Zak, but in his pocket. "Wait, how come Zapor gets to be the body while I'm the weapon?!"

"I don't know." Vorpa said and stood up. "But someone should be able to open that door now."

(So bit of a problem. My computer just died. So while I'm able to get on with my phone, posting might be a little slow. -Neo)

Zazak grew a machine gun missile launcher on his back. "Ok, I'm guessing I control what weapons we get." Zak said from Zazak's pocket. Zazak then fired all the missiles until the door was practically broken. "Alright, who wants to bust it open?" Zazak said in Zapor's voice.

"Thanks for warming it up for me." Rose said, slugging the door with The Reaper's immense strength.

Behind the door, 10 seconds before Rose punched it down, were 4 GUN guards. They all had weapons, but were also drunk. "So then I say, baby, you need a beer, but then she goes, why would I need a b--" That G.U.N soldier was cut off by the door falling, crushing and killing all the guards.

"Rose, am I gonna be able to summon a reaper?" Lexi asked.

Rose shook her head. "I'm not sure if you're ready for a Stand. You'd be taking a huge risk there."

"Kid, her powers came from the Stand Arrow that she's wearing in front of her shoulder. She and I both got stabbed with a Stand Arrow once, and we both developed Stands. But that sort of power isn't for everyone. There's plenty of people who have died from trying to use the Arrows." Anderson said.

"Oh....we should probs find a map to the room Echo is." Lexi said.

Blade picked up a map from a dead soldiers hand. "Found it."

Zero looked at the map, and noticed something. "The room right there." He said darkly. "It's the same design as the room where Echo got the virtue of power in when we went to that abandonded G.U.N base. That's where they're taking her."

"And they say we're criminals when they're trying to pull a 'Lucy'. We're only 30% criminal." Zazak said (in Zapor's voice).

As the group went down, a hoard of G.U.N soldiers were blocking the door.

"I'll make this quick..." Nasako said, walking up.

One G.U.N soldier noticed Nasako walking to them and pulled out his gun. "Hey, get back in your cell! I will not hesitate to shoot!"

Nasako stared at the soldier for a moment, then focused on his gun. "...You haven't even taken the safety off, rookie." A flame flashed in her eyes as she rushed towards him at breakneck speeds, striking him with a headbutt to knock him out as she wrestled his gun away from him.

The rest of the G.U.N soldiers then gkt up and pulled out their guns. "Alright! We will only say this once! Put down the weapon, and surrender quietly!"

Vorpa smiled as she saw the G.U.N soldiers squirm. Trinity came out and laughed. "Go ahead Cherry Pie...or is it Masako in control...whoever, just break their legs!"

"And maybe rip out their spines, hang them with it, and beat them with the legs you ripped off!" Zazak said (Zapor voice.)

Nasako passed the gun over to Ikiru. "Take this and find our weapons." Her eyes flashed a light yellow, and she summoned a polearm. She made a wide slash, sending a wave of serene energy at the soldiers' legs.

The G.U.N soldiers all fell, screaming in pain off having their legs chopped off. Lexi then walked up to one and held him by the neck. "Alright, punk. Tell us where our weapons are, and I might help you not have a broken spine."

"D-down the h-h-hall.....to the l-left.." Gun soldier said. Lexi the slammed his head against the wall. "Thanks!"

Nasako walked past the soldiers, her tail hiked up. "Think about it this way, at least you all get disability from this." She turned to the others. "I'm going to find Echo. Meet us there after you get our weapons." She sped off down the hall.

"Right! The rest of you, on me!" Ikiru headed to the left.

Zazak followed Nasako while the rest of the group went withI Ikiru.

Vorpa, Trinity, Jazz and Spirit followed Zazak, Zero hesitated a little bit but also followed suit.

Part 3 (Z): The weapons locker
The main hub of captured weapons was filled to the brim with iron bars and locks here and there. There was also an assortment of all kinds of weapons inside the cages.

"Well, looks like we have our pick of the litter!" Trinity decalred loudly. "I'm liking our odds!"

"I don't." Vorpa noted. "Think about it. A room full of weapons with no security system? Seems odd to me."

"That's because we're not alone." Jazz declared. "I can tell for a fact that we're being watched, but I don't know who it is that's watching us."

"I don't know either, but my fusion is about to wear off, so we should hurry and get our weapons." Zazak (Zak voice) said.

Ikiru raised his gun, scanning around the room using his advanced OmegaCorp cybernetics... he assumed that whoever was watching them was bound to be hostile.

Zero's clone walked out from behind one of the lockers. "Oh you finally got out." He said and turned to Spirit. "Get over here slave."

"Y-yes sir..." Spirit said reluctently and walked slowly towards the Evol clone.

Rose simply stood there with her hands in her pockets. Her jacket swayed.

The Reaper suddenly manifested herself in front of the Evol clone, throwing a sucker punch at him with all her might. "ORA!"

Evol smiled and copious amounts of Black Blood sprang from his back adn grabbed the fist.

"...I'm sorry..." Spirit said, prompting Evol to forcibly grab the mobian, and punch him in the stomach.

"You shut up." Evol said and Spirit turned into a scythe.

"Not again...!" Rose could only watch as The Reaper struggled to get free.

As Spirit was punched, Evol would hear what sounded like metal clattering onto the ground.

"Gotcha." Argent smirked, stomping the ground and sending a Ripple through it. Suddenly, a spray of iron spikes came flying toward the Evol clone's stomach.

"Hey, when did he...?!" Ikiru seemed confused... when did Argent plan this trick out?!

Evol looked down and smiled as he got impaled with the spikes, more black blood oozed out of his system. "You'd better think of a better idea, because this one clearly isn't gonna work."

As he said that though, Elder's words echoed. "Remember Resonence."

At this rate, the black blood would overpower Rose if she didn't do something... her soul cried out for someone, but who?

(Uhh, who can she resonize with? Just curious.)

(Well...Argent can resonzie with her cause of their siblingness, and...well...you'll see.)

Trinity didn't have any weapons, but she knew she had to do something, there had to be someway to deal with this black blood somehow.

Then it hit her.

She didn't know how she knew to do this, she didn't know if it was the adreniline in her blood, the affect that the world was having on her, or if it was something she had all along, but she somehow knew what to do. She walked towards Evol, her fist glowing bright blue, and punched Evol in the stomach. "Resonence Tap!" She shouted, causing the black blood to take it's normal liquid form and fall onto the ground. She jumped back a bit and stood next to Rose. "I have no idea how I did that." She murmered.

Zazak turned his hands into machine guns. "Alright, while you guys resonize or whatevs, I'll load bullets into faker #2.

Rose looked to Trinity. "Y'know, I wasn't sure what to think about you at first, but I'm really glad you're on our side. I owe you one, love."

In an instant, Argent was behind Evol. "You mean we owe you one." Somehow, he drew upon the speed and strength of The Reaper, and channelled it into a furious barrage of punches aimed at Evol's back.

The Reaper, now freed from the Black Blood, pulled back her fist then charged into Evol and threw an uppercut at his stomach -- right where the iron shards were buried.

Evol took more and more of the damage, soaking it all up. The iron shards were fully enveloped into his stomach, but more black blood poured out and sewed the wounds up. Evol gave a wicked smile and slashed his scythe at Trinity. "Oh this will be fun." He forcibly grabbed Trinity and pulled her closer. "Let's talk for a second, doll." Both of them started to glow and they turned into an odd being, something that didn't quite resemble a mobian truly, it looked like a feminine green hedgehog, but it had dark red horns. "Hello..." It said with Trinity's voice. She looked down at her hands and inspected them. "Is this what madness feels like?" She asked. "It feels good." She looked up at them, and offered a hand to Rose. "This life, is a life of purity. No fear, no distress, no dread. Don't you want to feel it?" She glared down at Zero. "I know a hedgehog that would love to feel this."

In a single, quick motion, Zero was on Evolity with his Scythe poised, ready to strike. "You don't say that. You know nothing about Leah."

Evolity smiled. "Do you even know that much about Leah? Do you even know that much about yourself?" She grabbed Zero and threw him into a locker, causing it to fall over.

"S-sorry..." Spirit stuttered.

"Now then." Evolity gripped her scythe and glared down at Rose, Argent, and Zazak. "Spirit. Black Resonance." A sharp loud screaming sound echoed throughout the room. The voice sounded odd at first, seeming hazy, yet familiar as it shot throughout the area. Until the voice became much clearer. The voice belonged to Leah. "Come then, fight me!"

"You better let Trinity go (other than the fact I barely know her) and fight us without fusing, otherwise I'm gonna.." Zazak started glowing and split into Zapor and Zak. "....Now you have to unfuse to make it fair.." Zak said.

"Somehow I don't see that happening..." Anderson said. "And we won't accomplish anything by trying to beat him out of her besides sending her straight to the hospital."

"Fair?" Evolity said. "I don't believe in fair." She followed up by swinging her scythe at Zapor.

Zapor took a mean cut to the arm and pulled out his gun with the other hand and shot Evolity in the arm.

"Hold on, I'm going to try and talk her out of this!" Rose said. "Trinity, I know you're in there... you're the one in control! You don't have to take orders from some demon's plaything! You've got to break free!" she shouted.

Part 3 (N): The virtue of Control
Nasako's journey didn't lead to far from where she was. While most of the walk was uneventful, the hallway opened up to a large room that seemed very similar to the one in the abandoned G.U.N building, in fact, it was almost identical, includng a large glowing orb in the center of the room. Near the orb was Echo, who was hesitant to touch it. Several G.U.N troops surrounded the girl, their guns pointed right at her. A boy, who looked to be about 15 stood near her, telling her to grab the orb. He wore a G.U.N uniform like the others, but he seemed different.

There was also a little box near Nasako, a red one that was already open and a revealed a small, slightly glowing gun. The gun looked ordinary as ever except for the glow.

On the inside Neo communicated with Masako through thoughts. "Looks like the gun that Fate use to use. Maybe it's one of the legacy things?"

Although this one happened without warning, unlike the last legacy piece, this one seemed different, much different.

While under the effects of the legacy Masako and Neo appeared seperatly in the memory. Standing next to them was the Fate that they saw last, the one that appeared in carcinium. Lying on the ground was a much younger, bleeding, and enraged Neo who's fur was currently red, and standing in front of him was Fate, who held a gun to his head. "You know of this moment, don't you?" The carcinium Fate said. "This was the moment that Fate spared Neo's life, and caused most of the moments that happened to transpire."

"The continuum that allowed us to find each other... all the lives that were lost because of it..." Masako thought.

"That is correct." Carcinium Fate said. "This moment was one of the most powerful moments of all time and it was because of this moment that an additional part of the Echo Project was created." Carcinium Fate walked forward, changing the scene to a little yellow cat girl looking up at the sky. "Once upon a time, a little girl wished on a star that she could have the power to change the world, to make it better. Her wish was granted and she recieved said power, but she didn't know that power corrupts and when that little girl grew up, she used her wish and her power to destroy her enemies. It was at the moment of Neo's almost death, at the moment where she would directly take an innocent boy's life, that she realized what happened and gained control in her life." She walked forward even more, changing the scene again to three glowing orbs on three pedestals. One was red, one was blue, and one was green. "Power, Control, and wishes. These were the three things that Fate realized was the key to changing the world, and it was because of this that she created these three virtues to bar the Echo projects from their true power, so they wouldn't become the monsters they were planned to do at the start."

She disappeared and the two mobians were put back in their fused form in the room they were in previously. "Get going, 01." The boy commanded. "Grab the virtue!"

"The keys to changing the world... and to think that we already led her straight to the Virtue of Power. We're lucky everyone survived that incident alone." Masako communicated through thought. "And with this Virtue, they'll be one step closer towards their ultimatum... but to what end? Will it be the world's salvation, or its destruction?"

Nasako shook her head. "No time to discuss possibilities, but feel free to give me your input." Masako thought. And with that, Nasako rushed into the fray.

The G.U.N soldiers aimed their weapons at Nasako, but the boy lowered his hands slightly and they stopped. "Let me tell you something." The boy said. "My name is Comando, otherwise known as Echo-03. You are interrupting my work, and I'm going to have to ask you to leave."

"I'm here on behalf of a friend who lost her life trying to protect 'your work'. Does the name 'Agent Destiny' sound familiar?" Nasako walked around a bit. "She might've been a traitor in your eyes, but you never once considered what her eyes had already seen. She realized that, to change the world--regardless of the ideals behind it, regardless of whether or not the world's salvation lies ahead--means the destruction of the world we already know. Surely, you of all people should understand that."

"I recall that her little 'gift' to us, caused most of my brothers and sisters to have false hope. I recall that their little plan to escape failed horribly and most of us ended up dead." Commando shouted. "And she is the only one that can find out the cure, so that no one else will have to go through what I had to go through, what we both had to go through."

Nasako shook her head. "She did what she could to take the Echo Project out of G.U.N.'s hands. She could have done nothing and let G.U.N. you and your siblings into the super soldiers you were meant to be, forced to do the bidding of terrorists... but in the end, she was the only one who tried to secure a normal life for you. And you trusted her then... when she was the only one you could turn to for hope. Yet here you are, doing the work of G.U.N., finishing what the Echo Project started, repeating the mistakes of history! I cannot stand by and let my friend's ideals die with her!"

Commando shook his head. "I work for G.U.N because I realize what the Echo Project could truly become. I realize that the ideals we were forced to believe were just the ramblings of a mad woman who had completely lost her mind. She killed nine of us, nearly killed another, and left this one for dead at the mercy of a defective group of G.U.N. You wish to fight me? So be it." Commando drew a set of cards. "I will not allow you to destroy the work that Dr. Radon and his team aspired to do."

"I suggest everyone else clear out of here... I can't guarantee that you'll come out of this alive otherwise." Nasako said, forming a blade out of serene energy.

"They'll stay. My soldiers do not fear death." Commando said.

"03, please..." Echo started.

"Save it, Sister. Just take the virtue, you'll feel better after that." Commando commaned. "And what are you two doing? Give it to her!"
