"When do we get off the ship?" Rico said getting up and stretching,
"In 12 hours," Katrina responded, she then added, "get some rest,"
Rico laughed and said, "No way in hell," he got his clothes and said, "I'm gonna play a good old game of football with my homies, feel free to come,"
Rico walked towards the door, Spades and Padre followed suit, of course they did, they were the stars, the trump cards, and the youngest players of Tarsonis Naval Flight's Tarsonis Paladins. Rico was the running back and linebacker, while Spades is a tight-end and Padre a safety. Katrina the sighed and said,
"Fine, I'll go prep our gear,"
"Thanks,"
They ran to the holodeck. It was set to the Imperial Stadium, where they have played in the National Championships. It was football time on the ship, there was only a skeleton crew, all sailors and marines are eligible to play and everyone comes to watch. Its a small tournament, all in one day.
Spades, Padre and Rico arrived just in time to form the teams, they got together and scouted the best sailors and marines there, then they came across somebody they knew...
"Holy shit, Stefan Rogers..." Padre shouted,
Stefan turned his head at the familiar voice,
"Look look, its Rico, Jeremy and Jared!"
He gave them a hug and said,
"Where the hell have you guys been?"
Rico whispered, "Royal Executioners,"
Stefan laughed and said,
"Holy shit..."
Rico then asked,
"You?"
"Royal Palace Guards...I'm inspecting this ship for my mission," Stefan said with a grin. Stefan and them go way back, he was their center, he was a big man, even bigger then Spades...
"Shame that Cam isn't here...last I heard he was assigned to the 144th Covert Ops" Spades said
"Now that wouldn't be fair to the others would it?" Rico grinned and said, "we can find ourselves another QB, c'mon,"
OOC: I'm buying you time for her to tell you her plan

OOC: Just a memo, my guys just attacked your ship on this post

Out Of Game: Oh. I didn't see that.
In Game: It was at this moment that the man at sensors finally noticed the red dots all over the sector. Being up for 14 hours might make you not be able to function fully.
"Sir, we have unidentified units all over."
Apollo spoke up, "Message Admiral."
After listening to the message Omega sent a reply: "Stand down. You are aiming weaponry at a SciFleet Starship; not smart. You're just lucky our dredis shows you as unidentified or we'd be firing already. You have limited time to comply."
"With all due respect Admiral, the bulk of SciFleet is a member of the Union, plus we destroyed all fighters, bombers, gunships are other auxiliary Russian ships and we have an armada with all guns on this ship, and you might want to take a closer look my friend, I suggest you go on visual, you will see who you are dealing with, an armada the former ESSCPA Special Ops is not to be underestimated,"
Admiral Lokke said, he then ordered,
"3rd Special Tactics Fleet (former Neo-ESSCPA), jump in, Pendragon Encirclement Formation"
Two dozen more ships appeared entered the battlefield, and formed a perimeter.
"All ships, ready to fire on my command,"
"STOP!" a voice shouted over the comms,
"Who was that?!" the Admiral said surprised, "how did they get in our encrypted channel!"
"Sir...I don't believe it, it is..."
Cera and her strike force appeared, they were en route to the Black Hole Empire.
"This is Admiral Cera,"
"Admiral Minamoto,"
"Princess Cecilia vi Yamato,"
Cera then said, "all Union forces, stand down immediately, lay down your arms, there is no need for this type of hostilities, do not force Omega to make a choice, the choice is his alone, we will let them leave in peace, whether he chooses Union or League, until next time we meet on the battlefield that is..."

"So here's the plan. Were going to use the Sa'kage to create the next rebellion. The problem with the rebels now is that they aren't fighters and they have no idea how to fight under the shadows. If we can get the Sa'kage's support then we might have a chance to actually change something." Audrey said
"That's it?" Sutori asked
"Why? Is there a problem?" she asked
"Umm, yah!" Sutori said
"What is it?" she asked
"The whole thing is lunacy. First your assuming the Sa'kage likes you in the least." Sutori began
"They offered you to become a bird man didn't they?" she quipped
Sutori looked stunned, "How do you know that?"
"They like me. And I suggest you accept." she said
"You do realize that your putting me in their pocket right? That if I work for them I kill anyone they tell me to?" Sutori asked
"That's why we made a deal that you will work for me. I get a bird man, you get a job. And we get some major influence in the Sa'Kage" she said
"And they are doing this why?" Sutori asked sarcastically,
"Because they like me." Audrey responded slyly.
"Anyways, you have your first mission." Audrey began, "you need to kill a Sa'Kage spy who knows about our plans. He's been caught and now there's a royal executioner team after them. You might recognize Rico, the guy you fought." she replied
"The guy who hypnotized me?" Sutori said sarcastically
"Wait? You can remember that?" she replied "That shouldn't be possible."
"Look princess, my abilities don't just make me disappear, they move me across dimensions of space. It forces me to become connected to all the invisible strings that connect everything. First off, its not a fun process and it nearly killed me. And secondly, it means I have an acute awareness of things close to me. Like I know that doc is on the other side of the door over there checking the supply manifest, that's pushing the limits of just how far I can feel. I know what Rico did, I just don't know how tightly I am bound to it." he replied
"Well I see we picked the right man for the job." she said
"Wait? Are you being serious? your trying to create peace and you recruit someone like me? You do realize how often I break the law, hell right now I'm about to kill a Sa'Kage spy just because he screwed up once?" Sutori asked incredulously
"Sutori, I picked you because your an amazingly moral person." Audrey replied
Sutori scoffed but when he looked up he saw she was serious and quickly looked away.
Just what kind of world have you been burdened with Sutori that being called a moral person makes you cry? Audrey thought to herself.

They got a team together, their recruits are not necessarily the biggest, fastest or strongest, but they are the most determined and aggressive, plus all of them Paladin fans, except for their Quarterback, who played backup for New Arcturus Redhawks, their rival school.
They got changed in their locker room and gone over a few simple plays. They all wore Paladin jerseys, even their QB, their cornerback had an extra for him to borrow. But it is a bit confusing for Rico, Spades, Padre and Stefan are confused by their numbers and their friend's numbers on stranger's backs, not that they are offended, they are proud of it. It was exciting, they haven't played with or against strangers competitively for a long time, they sometimes play with other Royal Executioners for fun, but not strangers.
They got a bye first round...but they are up soon in two hours...enough time to give a team a crash course in Paladin football.

No, not really, but that guy is gonna blow up the ship first...after we leave of course
I'm back bud 53 to Nil!
Holy shit!
I am a outside linebacker and running back (iron man football FTW!), so on defense, I got to play a few times at corner. Basically, they have two really good receivers, and if one of them is on, I'm covering him at corner...imagine that, a small receiver vs a linebacker. Basically, if I am not blizting, I'm pass covering at corner, because I got the speed for corner.
At running back, I scored 3 TDs

Next game is against a shit school, if we win three, we make playoffs
So I already count that as a win Haha, don't worry, once season's over, I'll stop talking about football
Sutori was working on reading up some information when a little girl evaporated out of nowhere.
"Son of a bitch" Sutori exclaimed as he fell out of his chair.
He got back up and backed away.
"Who are you?" he asked
"I am the seventh, your Sutori right?" she asked
she must have been maybe twelve to fourteen years old.
"Umm yes?" Sutori replied
"Now your eight, comeon." she offered her hand
For some reason he took it and they evaporated out of reality.

They are up in 10 minutes...since it is a scrambled amateur team, they didn't have coaches, so they have to call their own plays. They have two helmets with two way communicators, while the rest had headphones built in. Stefan will be responsible for calling the offensive plays and reading the defense, while Rico will call the defensive plays and read the offense, it didn't matter, the Paladins are renowned for calling their own plays. All of the former Paladins will play both ways...iron man football at its finest.
Keeping with their tradition, they preform their pre-game ritual...it is probably the first time the rest of their team have seen it.
"Gear up," Rico said, they geared up and had their helmets in their hands, Rico gave Spades a nod and said...
"Helmets on,"
They usually have microphones, but this time, they have to abuse their "sideline" communicators. Stefan gave Spades his helmet,
"Give me a beat!" Rico shouted, turning on his communicator
Padre turned off the lights and Spades gave him a sick beat, he cleared his throat and started rapping one of their pump-up songs...
"Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out - am I high? Perhaps
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse.
Till the roof comes off, till the lights go out
Till my legs give out, can’t shut my mouth.
Till the smoke clears out and my high burn out
I'ma rip this shit till my bone collapse......"
They actually felt like a real team, and that's whats important. The team cheered, it was so loud that it almost drowned out the bell...
"LETS GO!" Rico shouted and lead the way, they ran down the tunnel and saw the lights, they sprinted out and was met by a cheering crowd. He saw Katrina and Ace on their sidelines with their water, he then looked into the crowd and saw the Royal Executioners...its all real except for the stadium, the people are real, and that was all that mattered.

"What is this place?" Sutori asked
It was a dream like world, everything was a murky black but then a doorway appeared, and behind it a large mansion.
"I like to call it the void." the girl said gleefully
"Huh." Sutori said pushing open the door.
As he went inside seven guided him into the main room where there were six other people, including the two twins that tried to assassinate the princess from before.
"Welcome to our humble home." one of them said, an older teenage girl "I'm three, you can call me Grace."
"What is this place? And why are you two here?" He asked pointing to the twins.
"Your here because your one of us now, and well, technically we don't die." one of the twins said
"Oh yeah, I'm four, he's five. You can call me Bill and he's Roger." the other said
"Enough questions, come with me." Grace said
Sutori obliged, although somewhat halfheartedly.
"So are you the bird men?" Sutori asked
"Yes, although we prefer spirit walkers since it doesn't sound completely idiotic." she replied sternly,
"I though the Sa'kage forbid you guys from meeting up together." Sutori said
"Well we don't, this is our world and only we can use it. One found it a few hundred years ago before the Sa'Kage took over. They don't know about it. Its our chance to fight, to practice, and to do whatever the hell we like." she replied
They walked through the house, down countless passageways and stairwells.
"So you guys can't die?" he said skeptically,
"We can die but only if very certain conditions are met. Otherwise the phased energy just re coalesces back here and we reform." Grace said
"So what's your story?" Sutori asked
"I'm the third spirit walker to join us, although supposedly there have been much older generations that just leave this void after a while."
"So who am I then?" Sutori asked
"Your the eighth, and on another note. Your number tends to match up with your proficiency. I am three, that makes me levelheaded, and smart. I'm pretty damn good tactically." she said
"And what about me?" he said
"Eights tend to be extremely fast. That whole bit where you were half in and half out of phase in your last fight, yah that had us scratching our heads for a while. The twins looked like they might shit a brick. You don't have any spectacular abilities other then your speed. An eight is one of the primary spirit walkers along with two's, four's, and six's."
