Techno, realising his concentration had lapsed, moved the harness back out, and considered the looks on the other occupants of the cockpit, left it at that.

In the Bunker, Techno sat back and waited in the laboratory, surrounded by glowing sigils that flowed everything everything like oil on water.

In an alternate dimension, the orbit station fired up its engines and jumped.

And deep space, a dreadnought flared to life. It was not marked, but the advertisements covering the dreadnought were a giveaway of its alliegances.

Day 1

I've woken up in a cell, I don't know who's taken me captive or why. I think there might be other people here because I can hear someone wimpering in the cell next to mine.

"I've been collecting archives of all transmissions and apparently," says Spirit. "The spambots have forgotten to hide their signal. I did not make that mistake. The spambots do not know we know what they have in mind. And that, at the moment, is to take my Ray Sphere and use it. I scoff at that though, considering they aren't organic beings and activating it would only destroy plants, not Humani--" He stopped himself too late. "Humans, I mean..."

"J, aren't you sure we didn't end up in a place where everyone is a weirdo and has babbling thoughts about the universe? That's what this universe seems."

OOC: That's a running gag with me and J. In short, Techno cannot stop babbling.
OOC: I thought a bit so. Have you ever read The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel? I'm thinking of starting an RP based around it.

No.
Have you ever heard of the Enemy series?
I would do an RP based on it if someone else had read the books and if I could keep up with the RP. Which I can't.

I've not heard of it...
I just took one thing from the Flamel series and put it into my character: I am the last surviving Torc Madra.
But they weren't even close to endangered in the books. Look up Torc Madra and probably add Nicholas Flamel into the mix,

The orbit station reappeared in space. A different kind of space, but space, no less. The Orbit Station attempted to land on the Runway far below. But being far too heavy for such an object, the Runway collapsed beneath the station.

In deep space, a hole opened up, revealing another dimension on the other side.

Techno was sitting on top of the bunker when the runway collapsed. Other than the rush of people as the ran to investigate what had happened outside, Tech got up and walked straight over to the Station. It pressed a few buttons on the side, and the station vanished. It took off, and sat mid-way up in the air, and everyone below was oblivious to what was sitting directly above them.

Kamehameha stands straight and presses into a disc. "I believe the Lilith initiative is go."

Spirit hears a chime, which sounds like it comes from underground.

OOC: I'm assuming he's in a small base or something with no underground.

No...
He's in a huge base underground. Reinforced with Titanium. You should know this from the last one. With a self sustaining farm, fusion reactor, etc. etc.

OOC: Either way, WHizz's Bunker has a somewhat large dent on the roof now, thanks to an excessively heavy spaceship landing on it. :p

Techno landed on the bunker. As usual, he had missed and instead of falling directly into the rather obvious dent, landed on the satellite dish, rather heavily. Other than the dish now resembling an iron plate, rather than a parabola, not much damage was done. Techno picked himself off the dish, and hopped off, landing inside the bunker with relative ease. As he did so, Techno almost landed on a person who called themselves 'Spirit' and appeared to be surveying the damage.

Spirit picked himself up and had a look. Whatever it was that had landed on him had gone now. Spirit then heard something over his CB Radio, where someone then told him that they had lost all connections to the Geostationary satellite. Spirit had his suspicions, but he had to have proof before he could do anything.

BTW, my thing is entirely underground. The roof is also underground. Thanks to the camouflage conduit, anything that requires to be above ground is invisible.[DOUBLEPOST=1375722706][/DOUBLEPOST]IC: "Hmm..." Spirit mused. He called to his camouflage conduit. "Could you remove the camouflage on the satellite dish for a moment?" The conduit did so. Spirit looked at the damage. "Really?" He asked to the thing standing beside him. "Someone activate the satellite switching thing, please!" He yelled. "Harrumph. Now I have to fix my other one. Be more careful next time, would you?"

OOC: My character fled, Whizz, Spirit is talking to dust. ;) :p Chromium ate my text too. -_- So I'm typing from scratch. :p WHizz, the runway was part of your roof. It wasn't built to handle anything so heavy as an orbit station. Bella, not everything is true in the multiverse. :p We still have spambots, don't we? ;) I'll haev to write whatever it is I was going to tomorrow. :p
