The Ark

The Start Of It All

As Marth fought for her life, her teacher, her savior and new brother figure Apollo simply stayed in his new office provided by Kal'tsit. He moved various things from the Cube into the room: Books, tools and various other things. As he moved a faint glow came from his desk.

Resting on the desk laid another cube made up of a teal gemstone. Normally it's a perfect cube but now there was a clear and noticeable cut.

"So she used it, huh." Apollo said as he approached and grabbed the cube. It's soft glow not bothering his eyes in the slightest, after all he had to stare at brighter things. Suzuran being one of them. "I just hope I don't regret this. On the high chance of something happening to me, I hope she still grows and learns from it."

Apollo placed the teal cube down. Understanding his next phase of transforming the office into a mages workshop he needed the help of another person, or rather god. Apart didn't wish to bother dealing with the divine being but all of this is for Marth's future.

"To the engineering lab I go." Apollo said as he left the room. "Now that I think about it, perhaps Nian may help in fixing the Cube, whatever Musashi did a lot of damage to it. I'm an idiot for not noticing it early, so much stuff is missing from it now including my trusty spear."

Apollo traveled down the hall once again reminiscing about the past.

"So how long will it take for Marth to wake up?" Melantha asked sternly, if looks could kill then Melantha would be a class X felony.

However the person she asked didn't seem to be threatened by her, hell she even felt like bullying the girl. Yuki would have escalated the situation but she understood things needed to be done. She felt her vision clouding, the already dim colors lost whatever color they had.

Yuki looked at her arm as if she had a watch. "She will be back right about no-"

Mid sentence Yuki's head dropped causing everyone to stare at her. Her body looked as if her strings were cut, Warfarin instantly went to check Marth's pulse. There was a moment of silence as they waited for her results.

"She is going to be fine, nothing abnormal seems to be happening." Warfarin said letting relief rush over her.

"So now that Marth is ok, what should we do next? People invaded the building." Ansel asked.

"We should try to get out of here and work with authorities." Adnachiel said.

Closure placed her hand on Adnachiel's shoulder, on her and Alyssa's face was a devilish smile fitting. A smile filled with some much greedy intent that the two could look like the villain in a movie.

"Or we could go and get a handle on the technology. If we do that and protect it then all the other companies might decide to owe Rhodes Island a favor aka we become loan sharks." Closure said as if she was the most mind changing, life transforming idea that has ever graced the Terra.

Warfarin could only stare at Closure's and Alyssa's smug expressions. How did Kal'tsit and the others deal with Closure's wild ideas? However she can't help but see their train of thought perfectly.

"Somehow that plan is both ridiculous yet smart at the same time. I'm in."

"If Warfarin thinks it a good idea then with me being her junior in the medical field I'll follow her plan." Ansel said as he prepared everything he may need.

"Then it's decided. We will move inward where all the technology is at. Cardigan and I will be the vanguard. Adnachiel, Ansel, Steward, and Warfarin will provide support from the back. Closure frankly I don't know what you are able to do in combat so I'll leave that to you."
