From Space Ships to Camels because it wasn't safe to travel in the Sahara Desert on a Mobile Weapon or anything larger. The Rebel Nation might label them as a threat, hence the camels. Deangelo and his men are headed towards the hidden city called, Iram of the Obelisk (City of the thousand Obelisk), the seat of the Rebel Nation's main head quarters. This ruthless desert theocracy was noted for vastness and notorious inhabitants.The Sahara Desert has been dominantly controlled by the Rebel Nation for more than a decade now. Von Bargen was a very skilled and very prominent merchant. He knows the way the hidden city like the back of his hand but more importantly he knows how to mind his manners when in Rebel Nation's territory.


--Igor: "Woo hoo hoo! its hot here! Are you alright little missy?"
Igor asked Chihiro.

(OOC: It has been over a month now since Chihiro was taken by Von Bargen. If you wish Serene, we could skip the introductions and just let their names be known to each other.)

Giant Mall, Mobius Sector

After getting what they came for, the Dogma Bandits exited the giant mall via the large hole they made. The District Police didn't act they are obviously frozen in fear. One of the DPs noticed a blonde guy in a jeep waving his hands signalling something but he wasn't saying anything, it looked like he was signalling a mobile suit or something, he was ignored.

The Mobile Suit came out first followed by the minions who are on foot. The container used to store their loot was being towed by a massive truck.


--Dogma Bandit in Prawn Blaster: "All fucking right! Let's get out of here!"


--Dogma Bandit Leader: "Move out Dogmas!"


The Dogma Bandits are now outside the enormous mall. Their escape appeared to be easier than they expected, the district police weren't trying to apprehend them.

Travelling on something man made would've cut their travel time by a whole lot but this was the safest way to enter the Iram of the Obelisks if you're not a member of the Rebel Nation. Also while all his men were outside baking under the hot sun, all the while Von Bargen was lying asleep inside an enclosed box made from oak being carried on a wagon, away from the harmful rays of the sun.

Before they entered the City, Igor was summoned by Von Bargen then he came running back to Chihiro after receiving orders from the oak box (Deangelo Von Bargen), he turned to Chihiro again and told her,


--Igor: "Little missy my Master suggests you cover up your face before we enter the city"

The Iram of the Obelisk also had the largest Black Market for both on-foot and mobile suit armaments in the world. They entered the city and immediately they had eyes checking them out from every angle. The streets of were littered illegal merchants, thieves, thugs, mercenaries, almost everyone was a wanted man here Chihiro would fit in perfectly. Of course there is no guarantee that there aren't any bounty hunters here...

(OOC: Serene cover your face before we enter the city )

The bandits were exiting the mall.

"It's a conspiracy." "Yes, a conspiracy."

"That's the only way we can explain our despair: it's a conspiracy."

"Conspiracy…" "Conspiracy…"

"We're being targeted."

"We're being targeted by a large organization of pudding aliens."

"We are; we are…"

"They know where we are, but where are they?"

"It's a conspiracy."

"Yes, that's the only explanation."

"Let's go, let's go! There's only one way to resolve this issue."

"And that way is…?"

"We must hunt this organization of alien puddings…"

"We must! That's the only way we'll ever have our lives back!"

"We must hunt…" "We must hunt…"

Suddenly, the bandits were gone and so was everyone else. A door appears out of nowhere and Katsushiro is magically transported back to his apartment. The door bell rings.

"It's them… It's them… It's them…"

Then, suddenly a booming voice… "Katsushiro, we know you're in there!"

Asano Katsushiro quickly got to his feet, bumping the small table, knocking over several containers. White pills went everywhere.

"Shit, just as I though… The aliens! They know my name… It has to be them!" Asano exclaimed. He lifted the cushion he had been kneeling on and grabbed a pistol that had been laying under it.

"Katsushiro, we're giving you until the count of three to come out quietly!"

Asano flipped the lock off his gun and cocked it. He slowly peered around the corner and watched the door.

"One…" said the voice.

A bead of sweat rolled down Asano's forehead.

"Two…" the voice continued.

The bead brought an army along. His face suddenly started dripping…

"Three…" the voice finished.

Asano’s chest raised and lowered with each unsteady breath. His body shook.

"SLAM!" The door violently swung open. Katsushiro jumped from the corner. His eyes met with the man who entered. Katsushiro didn't hesitate, despite his nerves. He slammed down the trigger of his pistol. A bullet whizzed through the air and struck the man in the stomach. A fountain of blood erupted. Katsushiro finished the man off by releasing another round.


Two more men stormed in, but Katsushiro was there to greet them with a hail of gunfire.


"Mya, we have to split before backup arrives!" Katsushiro exclaimed. But when he looked back he found himself alone in the snowy plains and Mya wasn’t there. His entire world turned dark and as it spiraled around him like a vortex Katsushiro couldn’t help but to feel empty and despair.

“She’s gone…”

“Katsu…”

“Mya? No! It must be an illusion! I need to snap out of this.” Katsushiro said trying to snap out of his delusional prison. All the while he was standing and his body was swaying back and forth back in the real world, his eyes were set on the ceiling.

“Katsu… Katsu… Katsu… Katsu…”

“Stop it! I don’t want to hear these voices anymore!”

“Katsu… Katsu… Katsu… Katsu…”



"Puru puru pururu puru"


“I said stop it!!” he exclaimed out of his dream and continued on in the real world. Just like that he was back in the real world. Everyone in the room was pretty much freak out by him more than the robbery. One of the customers inside the shop even said, “I won’t order from his store anytime soon.”

Charlie picked up his phone and called Paul, "It seems they are not getting any of your messages, check your comm system. They seem to be ignoring me here, so I will proceed to the Cafe once the mall clears up, until then I will head back to the Alduin and prepare".

Paul nodded and responded, "Roger that. Just keep yourself safe kid, your brother and father would kill me if anything happened to you." He then hung up and checked his comm terminal, pulling one of the plugs out of the socket and finding out it had been covered with what appeared to be dirt, It must have happened in a previous mission and he overlooked it. He cleaned it off and radio'd the DP once more, "District Police. This is Dragon's Fang PMC, we are preparing to launch in our mobile suits to stop the bandits. Evacuate the civilians to a safe place!"

Paul then opened up his comm to his team, "Sorry for the delay it appears I had some trouble with my standard comm terminal, it is a good thing we have an independent terminal for our comms, now we are heading to the Mall in the civilian sector" With that he lauched from the Alduin and made his way into the civilian sector

--Chief of the District Police: "What? Who's? Who is this? Duragohn Fuang? "

"Who ever you are. If you're planning on helping I suggest you turn back. These bandits are more than you can handle! You'll only end up destroying the lives of innocent people!
(The chief replied over the comm link.)

Paul replied back, "Obviously you don't know what we are capable of sir. Nothing you can say will change our mind anyway. Just use your troops to protect the civilians and we will handle the rest!"

Paul then picked up his pone and sent a text to Victoria, "Hehe taking a nap sweetheart? I am surprised I haven't heard you over the comm yet, anyway, we are heading out on a mission"

"BTW the Pop star brat paid me to lighten up and record a song on the ship, So I grabbed my guitar and did this for you, Don't go getting a swelled head over it"

Solomon, not wanting to insult, but also not liking what he saw, nor how creepily the guy was molesting a statue's genitals, said, "It is an acquired taste," and left it at that.

He would not risk any more words lest he say something he'd regret, especially with the men pointing guns at his back. Sure, he could try and rush him, but he had no idea how strong this guy was, nor how quick a finger the men behind him were, and Sol was nothing if not an opportunist, and he wasn't seeing one, so he stood there and waited.

--Chief of the District Police: "Tch!"
Was all what the Chief of the District police replied before turning off his comm. It seems the Chief of Police had no choice other than to trust in these so called Dragon Fangs. The District Police began evacuating the surrounding area, preparing for a large scale battle inside the colony.

--Chief of the District Police: "I hope to God this works..."

Tensu lowered his thrusters down to a lower speed to not pass Paul in his Kiba, remaining ground bound as he saw the mall on the horizon. "Paul, have the civilians been moved out yet?" he asks over the comm, turning off the saftey locks on his weapons, then looking back to see if Alastor was keeping up. Once he got close to the property of the mall, he stops his thrusters completely, looking around with his senors for the bandits

--Igor: "This place I know it! It is the ca-called the Iram of the Obelisk. It means little missy, the City of the Thousand Obelisks. I know I know! There isn't a si-single obelisk in sight that's because the Obelisks can be found underneath our feet! The enter city is b-built on top of thousands of giant Obelisks. He he he! Master told Igor this ma-many years ago. And that is where are going, underneath the ci-city because master doesn't like the s-sun."

Von Bargen's crew left their camels and the wagon on the stables. The huge sentries who pulled and carried Von Bargen's container out of the wagon and gently placing it down on the ground in way that it stands up. They made sure the container was under the shade and away from sunlight before opening it. A fume of cold smoke oozed out from the box container like a that from a freezer. Deangelo slowly opened his eyes and stepped out from the container.


--Von Bargen: "Here we are again on this cursed planet."

"Come on let's move. I don't want to stay out here any longer."

Von Bargen led the way, he opened the door in front of him and walked in on a family having their lunch. From the expression of their faces it looked as if they were expecting him. Von Bargen smiled at the family and proceeded to the basement of the house, his crew followed.

Solomon cautiously stepped into the house and into the living room. He had no idea what to expect from 'Jin' and he really couldn't afford to let his guard down. He only hoped that whatever the man wanted to talk about involved fighting of some sort, as that is the only field that he is truly knowledgeable of.

CHAPTER 2: "The Fool and the Princess"

Lunar Colony 04
Giant Mall, Mobius Sector
April 5, LC 214

What the Bandits didn't expect was that one of the mall customers was a veteran AEO pilot and he hid his mobile suit somewhere nearby. While everyone was busy doing their thing, the veteran already made his way out of the mall and to the underground storage where he buried his mobile suit.

Appearing just several blocks away from the giant mall was the mobile suit Stratus, piloted by the AEO veteran who just wanted to put a stop to the bandit's and their tyranny.


--AEO Pilot: "Its time to put an end to your evil ways!"

The District Police had finished setting up barriers around the area and evacuating the citizens nearby except for the people inside the mall.

--Chief of the District Police: "Oh shit! This is going to turn real ugly. But we might as well back this guy up!"

As soon as the bandits were in the clear and away from the mall, the AEO veteran rushed at the bandits with this Stratus while shooting at the enemy with this rifle. The District Police provided support fire for the AEO veteran. Their attacks managed to graze the bandits and their container got hit during the attack causing all their loot to blow up into bits.



--Dogma Bandit in Prawn Blaster: "That's it! I've had enough of this!"

The Prawn Blaster charged up his Beam Cannon and aimed it at the District Police.


--Dogma Bandit Leader: "Erem no!" the Bandit leader yelled at the pilot of the Prawn Blaster trying to stop him but he was too late. The Prawn Blaster fired his main weapon and in an instant, wiped out a large portion of the District Police force.



The Stratus was met by the Jabongga. The AEO pilot in his Stratus was no match for the Bandit Leader. The Stratus was slammed down hard on the floor by the much larger Jabongga and thrown back inside the mall. The AEO pilot was severely injured from the blunt force trauma dealt by the Jabngga, he passed out inside his mobile suit.


--Dogma Bandit Leader: "Darn it why did it have to come to this!? Dogmas! Take them out!"

--Von Bargen: "We're going to meet with an old friend that is all you need to know for now Chihiro."

Von Bargen replied to Chihiro. He flipped a switch in an empty room and it opened a hidden passage on the walls leading down into an underground passage.

Paul had kept in contact with the police and once they had finished their preparations he radioed that info back to Tenasu. It was just then that he saw a Stratus come from nowhere and try to engage their target. He managed to destroy the stolen supplies which could have been returned, but in the end was defeated quickly by the Jabongga.

Paul opened up the comm to his allies, "Alright Fangs lets fight!." He said moving towards the enemy himself

(I would like to request that if Neo stays absent that I may move him along for this chapter only)

Alastor had been a little bit behind the others, having done some extra checks and launching last. By the time he had arrived he had seen the end of the fight between the Jabongga and the Stratus. He saw Paul launch towards them and did the same.

Light steps can be heard from the stairs. Resolve came down the stairs to see what those voices in the living room were, stopped dead in his tracks and stared at the Visitor. He let his eyes travel up to where his gaze met the visitor, which made him smile a bit. Resolve merely chuckled and continued on kneeling, looking slightly flushed.

"Master Jin, I'm glad you're home. I'll prepare you a nice bath right away!" Resolve proposed with a cute boyish smile.

"Sorry for my intrusion, but any guest that Master Jin brings here is a friend of mine. My name, is Resolve Defiance. I am Master Jin's assistant. Pleased to be graced with your presence, Sir..." the boy courteously introduced himself to Solomon White. He reached out for a handshake.

Teransu moved his machine up to keep in a slight formation with Paul's, looking to see that there weren't many Bandits, which meant they had a good chance to win. Though it changed as he saw the another Stratus fly in and try to take them out, only to get flung away like old news. He breathed in a few times to steel his nerves before moving into a combat Stance. "Goes its time to fight, Paul, Alastor" he said over the comms, watching for his teammates' actions.
