"Sure," Rosie say to Koith and they watch him walked away. Since the training is over for now, Jenny shows her some places she never been. But when she about to, her 2 friends spotted them. It was Brad and his little brother, Tucker.
"Hey, Jenny!" Brad yelled to get her attention.
"Brad!" She saw him. Brad and Tucker walked to them. "Good to see you, Jenny. So how your trip during last holiday. And woah. You new sister?" Brad mistaken Rosie as a new XJ robot. "Somehow she make me want to have a candy," Tucker make a small joke because Rosie's pink and green color
"Ah.." she feels shy when meeting people she never met before
"Oh her? Nah. She belongs to my mom's old friend. Anyway, this is Rosie. She really shy but she is nice. Rosie, meet Brad and Tucker. They both are my first friends I met," Jenny explained.
"H-hello," Rosie feels a bit arkward with shy blush
"Cool. So is that make her your partner? Awesome," Brad amazed
"But..isn't your mom don't have friends?" Tucker confused of something.
"As far as I know, her friend is her partner when she was in college long time ago. Right now he live together with us. You won't believe when you look at him, " Jenny answered.
"Hey, don't ignore me!" Vanilla yelled. She was above Rosie's head
"Woah! A flying doll!" Tucker suprised
"I'm a pixie! A meta pixie!" Vanilla flew in front of them with annoying face
"This is Vanilla. One of my mom's friend made," Jenny explained
"Coooool. It feels like fairy tale will be real as robot. Anyway, wanna go to our favorite spot?" Brad asked
"Sure! I was about to bring Rosie and Vanilla there"
They all walking together while chatting. Rosie feels better to join into friends society

Jakob picked up the pace as he jogged rather casually across Tremorton in a manner any normal pedestrian would- namely avoiding jaywalking, and crossing only at specific markers set for legal crossings. He may be a vigilante, but that didn't mean he had to be free to break laws.
As KPG once said, he had to set an example. What example that was, Jakob still wasn't sure. He only did what came naturally: Setting examples in patience, professionalism, precision... those seemed likely what the late doctor meant.
Seemed was the key word, and the uncertainty- no matter how slight, bothered the android. Deep-down he still wondered, but he never left any processes to work on said wondering. He had to concentrate on the present.
At the present time... there didn't appear to be anything going on... Not even a single thug that the android could drop with a shell full of rubber pellets. Not even a suspicious-looking civvie, since the weather was warm enough to not warrant anything thick enough to reasonably try to cover the head and face.
Jakob stopped at a traffic light, waiting for the colours to change to allow him to cross a rather busy street.

Champ looked around, noticing that most of his fellow metas had left Mezmers to attend to their own business.
"Looks like everyone's cleared out," He said, standing to observe the empty diner.
"Yup," Azure said, hopping down next to him, "Maybe it's a sign that we should head out too."
He turned, raising an eyebrow.
"And where exactly would we go?" He asked.
"I dunno," She said, "But this cool guy I know gave me a really nice camera, and I'd like to test it out."
He smirked, looping his arm around hers.
"Shall we go then, ma'am?" He asked.
She laughed, giving a faux salute.
"I suppose we shall,"She said, and together they walked out into the city, looking for something worthy of testing Azure's Christmas gift on.

Eric decided to stop trying to have a conversation with Felix and Ralph, and try one of the Sugar Rushians instead. Since the other two games weren't plugged in, he plugged in Sugar Rush into the wall socket next to Fix-it Felix Jr.
Like what happened to the socket before it, several openings on both sides of the wall socket opened, and multiple clusters of cables came snaking out, and up to the back of the machine. They probed for an opening, and eventually found a way through the game's outer plastic covering and into the circuitry itself.
Nanoscopic filiments broke off from the wires, and attached themselves to the circuits, diodes, and memory chips directly, burrowing into them. In effect, the arcade machine became hardwired to the building itself, becoming one with the machinery, circuitry, and every non-living object in the palace.
Like Fix-it Felix Jr., the Cluster nanotechnology improved the game's circuitry and reformatted the two montors into Cluster-level screens, that had no chance of blowing out or cracking.
To add to the upgrade, since the game characters were 'living' computer code, their makeup similar to the brains of the robots living on Cluster Prime, they could, in theroy, actually inhabit a body outside of their little game worlds, if a body was made for them.
"Now to say hi to the Sugar Rushians." Eric said, sitting down in one of the arcade machine's seats.

While Marie talking with Bullet and Viktor as Koith stays silent. Suddenly, the blue soldier spots someone with a pair of shades, black trench coat and a black cap. Head into the Mezmers, that weird one orders:
-As usual, Mr.B!
The barman nods with an answer:
-One black Richthofen coming up!
Then, he serves the guest with a glass of oil with a special flavor. German? Koith suspects, as he heard that voice, very familiar. Feeling that being watched, that guy tapped into the table with his point finger. Enigma code? Koith's AI known how to decipher it. After a short while of communication, the guy who finished his drink, paying the bill and leave the place in haste.
In the soldier's result, he got a message:
"Duty call, Koith! Delta's awaiting.
-Kane"

(OOC: See I told you all I would not disappear again!!.. At least not permanently. Sorry for not being here for so long. I just got really busy all of a sudden and my computer got REALLY, REALLY slow. Luckily, I got a nice new laptop that makes everything a breeze compared to my old desktop.)
"Welcome to Tremorton, Bullet!" Koith shook Bullet's hand with a greeting. "Unfortunately, we recently at peace, the town was lucky enough to have such relaxing day! If you getting here sooner, maybe you will find much more funny things to play!"
Koith sat down next to Marie and ordered two meta milkshakes.
Turning to Bullet and Viktor, Koith said:
"We'd got a bunch of troubles while you guys still wandering at the outskirts! Maybe it could be very complicated to explain it all. But if you want any missions, I'll brief you at my base! Due to nothing available this time, why don't we have a rest and greeting before taking on any operations next?"
Hmmm, is this Koith some sort of respected military leader here in Tremorton? Bullet thought to himself. So many other vigilantes, I guess I chose the right place to be today, and the right time. "Thank you for the offer, Koith." Bullet replied. "I'm sure we will be working together much in the future."
Bullet now noticed that many were starting to leave the restaurant. He was slightly disappointed, but perhaps it was a sign that he should go find this XJ-9. Just then, man with a black trench coat and hat, and wearing dark shades came in and sat down. Bullet could sense he too was an android. The newcomer ordered a drink, drank it, paid, then left in much haste. Bullet turned to Koith and noticed Koith had been watching the soldier, deep in thought. Was that the XJ-9 he heard so much about?
"Say Koith, did you know that soldier? Was that XJ-9?"

-Nein!-Koith shook the head-He's my informant who collecting intels and giving to me about the latest missions and now he'd got one for the briefing. By the way, the last time I saw XJ-9 while I was giving her friend some firing training! Anyways,
Koith feels suspicious with Bullet's behavior through he keep asking for Jenny many times. He asks:
-I'm just curious about what did XJ-9 do to make you worried? Could you tell me what's going on? Short and sweet since I'll leave the place soon for the brief at the base.

Eric looked at Sugar Rush's screen, and saw that the racers were lining up for a demo race. He knocked on the sceen, and one of the racers turned their head ever-so-slightly and looked at him.
The racer in question was the loveable ditzy Candlehead; she smiled, and waved.
"Hello, Sugar Rush racer. I am Eric Voltzworthy, king of Cluster Prime, and the new owner of your game." Eric said.
As soon as she heard the word 'king', Candlehead ran over to one of the other drivers--Vanellope, in this case--and pointed in the direction of the screen. Vanellope turned to the screen, first in shock, and then furrowed her eyebrows in anger. She then got up from her car, and ran offscreen.
----
After navigating the innards of a Cluster-upgraded electrical system, an 8-bit Vanellope sprite appeared in Fix-it Felix Jr., hopping up and down yammering something about a king. She ran over to Felix, and he called Ralph down from the apartment building.
"Ralph! Vanellope needs help! Sugar Rush is in danger again!"
The trio of characters left Fix-it Felix Jr. and went to Sugar Rush.
Eric smirked to himself. "This is gonna be good!"

"Nein!" Koith answerd. "He's my informant who collecting intels and giving to me about the latest missions and now he'd got one for the briefing. By the way, the last time I saw XJ-9 while I was giving her friend some firing training!"
Bullet noticed that Koith looked at him suspiciously. Oh, no. Bullet thought to himself. I think I might be letting on my search for XJ-9 slightly bit too instantly. Here it comes.
"Anyways," Koith continued with his suspecting one. "I'm just curious about what did XJ-9 do to make you worried? Could you tell me what's going on? Short and sweet since I'll leave the place soon for the brief at the base."
Bullet frantically began calculating ways to avert a potentially damaging situation. I can't tell anyone about mum-wait, where did that come from??? -Can't get distracted. I don't need Skyway getting wind that I'm here. I never did anything, it was the Cluster that dreadful day...
"Oh, XJ-9 hasn't done anything." Bullet replied awkwardly. "My creator was one of Dr. Wakeman's colleagues, she's been... uhh, travelling for a while." I haven't heard from either in a long time and though I'd drop in for a visit to see if Wakeman has heard anything from the professor lately. I'm getting worried about her, my creator, that is."
Okay, hopefully that works well enough. It's a terrible story, but it's mostly truthful. It's better for everyone that I lay low for a while It was then that Bullet saw that Viktor looked rather sickly all of a sudden. He looked quite lightheaded and dizzy. "Hey Viktor, are you okay?" Bullet asked his friend. "Oh, y-yeah, yeah. I-I think I just need s-some fresh air." Bullet was slightly glad about this since it gave a distraction from the XJ-9 catch-22. Just to be sure, Bullet decided he would make a scene out of it. "Right, Right! Humans need air to survive! I will get you to safety Viktor!" Bullet declared melodramatically, sweeping Viktor off his feet and taking him to the seating outside of Mezmer's.
"Ugh... can you please never do that again?" Viktor was quite startled and embarrassed by the scene, no to mention nauseas. "Sorry, sorry... I just needed out of that spot. Nothing's wrong, there's just something I don't need a bunch of people knowing about me. Perphaps I should tell you though." Bullet explained. The sorrow once again returned to Viktor's eyes and tone.
"No, It's fine. You don't need to do that. Let's just go back in and pretend you didn't say anything." Bullet was just about to disagree, but then decided it probably was for the best.
It's strange, that look in Viktor's eyes. Is there something more about him that he's hiding too?
They reentered the restaurant and went back to Koith. "Sorry about that."

-That's ok!-Koith wave his hand with a smirk-I'd seen many situations like this before. That's doesn't trouble at all!
But, the soldier himself thinks it's time to deal his mission. Standing up, he said:
-Now if you excuse me. I got mission to do now!
Koith also turns to Marie:
-You can stay here and have a chit-chat with friends! I need to brief the mission ASAP.
Then, he leaves the place. After a short while, Marie also says:
-Sorry, guys! But you know, my boy was so busy to live for his real life. Now if you excuse me, I'll back to the base for mission, too!
And the girl also left the Mezmers. While on the pave back to Junkerton, Marie asks Koith after caught his feet:
-You got something from Delta?
-Ja!-Koith replies without seeing the girl.
-Then let's get on the business!-Marie nods.
((OOC: Attention, everyone! Right after my next few posts, I'll start "Steel Brothers". If you guys interested with it, just join. Or not or don't have much time, "Sunny Days" will open wide for you. But remember, you can't let your OCs in two RPs at the same time!))

((OOC:Okay, I know I've been absent for a while[Sorry, college keeps happening], but just so no one gets the impression that this is a forum wide rule, there is absolutely NO rule normally establishing that your character can't be in multiple RPs at a time. Back in the old days it was fairly normal for us to run 2 fairly plot heavy RPs at a time and we never had any rule about someone's character(s) popping up in both.))

"That's ok!" Koith responded to their excuse with a friendly smirk. "I'd seen many situations like this before. That's doesn't trouble at all"
That was close. The sooner I can get to XJ-9, the sooner I might find the Professor. Bullet thought. Koith then stood up and said:
"Now if you excuse me. I got mission to do now"
Koith also turned to Marie:
"You can stay here and have a chit-chat with friends! I need to brief the mission ASAP."
Koith then turned and left the establishment. After a moment, Marie turned to Bullet and Viktor.
"Sorry, guys! But you know, my boy was so busy to live for his real life. Now if you excuse me, I'll back to the base for mission, too!" And she too left.
Koith says he's got a mission. Perhaps XJ-9 will be involved too. Bullet stood there calculating for a moment, then looked around the restaurant. There's pretty much no one here anymore. Then it's decided, I'm going to see about getting into that mission too. If it's about the Old Cluster, this might be more helpful than I bargained for. Let us find out.
"Hey, Viktor." Bullet said aloud with a grin. "You ready to risk life and limb on some sort of mission we no nothing of the specifics of yet?" He turned to see Viktor's reply, and was surprised to find him smiling excitedly, but there was still something bittersweet in his eyes.
"You bet I am."
How strange how comfortable he seems around me already, almost like he knows me. "Okay, let's go find Koith again."
The duo ventured out of the restaurant and began in the direction they had seen their comrade go. Little did Bullet know what would be in store for their future. Yet, to a degree, Viktor knew, knew more than Bullet could ever guess.

((OOC: Bullet, if you wanna your character meeting XJ9, I was the one rp as her other than my characters. Along with Brad and Tucker and Dr Wakeman))
During the walk in the city, they talk few things about Rosie. "So that's how you ended up staying in Jenny's house?" Brad asked
"Uh huh," Rosie nodded
"Cool," they arrived at the restaurant where they always hang out. Then Brad continue, "I wonder since you also a meta, what is your prototype name?"
"Prototype name..?" Rosie confused
"Kinda like a code name, Rosie" Jenny explained when they sit at one table, "Like me, I'm XJ-9. How about you?"
"Umm..RB-0," Rosie answered, "I think?"

Junkerton's quarter...
Today is not so crowded, only Koith, Marie, Grinder and some hi-officers in formal uniforms. The commander starts:
-Gentleman, I guess you'd known why we're here, right?
-Pardon me, sir!-KM-08 raises his hand-I'd just got the intel about the recent mission. About the details, I'm totally deaf!
-Then you'll see about that!-The officer nod, then showing the intels and briefings-The President had agreed the ideas from the Defense. He ordered Delta and Marines head into the Cluster Prime and commence Operation Hornet!
Turning on the projector, showing the detail of this operation, that guy continues:
-Your objectives is to capture Vexus and paralyze the Clusters' propaganda. In the other case, you must force her into the peace negotiation with Earth, using everything you got to make her do so!
Koith seems dissatisfied with this operation. It's no only hope, but a one way trip to the Hell. But, instead opposing these ideas, he asks:
-So how do we get there?
Showing the blueprint of the newly-designed spaceship, the commander replies:
-We'd secretly designed a boarding ship, thanks to many decades of researching from Area 51! With the FTL, you can say hi with the Prime in couple of hours before Vexus' fleet spotted you. However, the hold was not so good to maintain the pressure so it's limited only to 50 personnel downward!
-You mean I should pick up the best soldiers along, right?
-Exactly,-The officer nodded-You should pickup some elites from the Delta, up to 5 people allowed! When the list is done, show me and I'll send the Marines filling up the tank.
-Yes sir!-Koith saluted, he hidden his worries about this mission. When the briefing ended and the officers left the base on a chopper, Grinder says:
-Blue Metal, you don't have to do this. This is suicide!
-I know, kamerad!-Koith nods now his worries came out-But they'd gave me no choice.
Showing another piece of paper inside the pockets, the soldier continues:
-They'd promoted me into Field Commander of Operation Hornet, which means if I abort this mission, I might be accused as the deserter.
-God damm it!-Grinder groans while reading the report-I don't get it why the Command sending you to death?
-Koith, please!-Marie also advises-You must stay. You'll dead by this mission!
Koith had a bit headache about this. He can't decide for himself. "Enough!", he raises his hand to halt Marie's talk. "I need a rest,", the soldier replies then back into the apartment to re-calm himself and have a thinking about this...

As the meeting at Junkerton progressed, an inconspicuous, old orange-and-white Flivver (Model T) sat near the building, listening to the discussion through the walls. This old jalopy was, of course, Bullet in disguise. He wasn't sure how he had the ability to turn into a Ford Model-T of all things, but at least it was convenient in this situation. Viktor ducked under the seat, out of sight of potential passerby. Bullet had an imperfect detection-proof array that usually worked as long as he didn't move. Bullet listened attentively using hypersensitive dialogue pick-ups.
"Your objectives is to capture Vexus and paralyze the Clusters' propaganda. In the other case, you must force her into the peace negotiation with Earth, using everything you got to make her do so!" He heard an unfamiliar, commanding voice say.
"So how do we get there?" Bullet recognized this as Koith's voice, he sounded skeptical of their plan.
Bullet heard noises as if the main speaker was showing some sort of visual, but Bullet wasn't using any optical or video equipment, so he couldn't see.
"We'd secretly designed a boarding ship, thanks to many decades of researching from Area 51! With the FTL, you can say hi with the Prime in couple of hours before Vexus' fleet spotted you. However, the hold was not so good to maintain the pressure so it's limited only to 50 personnel downward!" This was the commanding voice again.
"You mean I should pick up the best soldiers along, right?" Koith again.
"Exactly," The commanding voice. "You should pickup some elites from the Delta, up to 5 people allowed! When the list is done, show me and I'll send the Marines filling up the tank."
"Yes sir!" Koith saluted. Bullet heard all of the troops beginning to leave, so Bullet quickly and quietly drove away, his electronic/micro-nuclear engine making no detectable sound. "Blue Metal, you don't have to do this. This is suicide!" Bullet heard a new voice say.
"I know, kamerad!"Koith again. "But they'd gave me no choice. They'd promoted me into Field Commander of Operation Hornet, which means if I abort this mission, I might be accused as the deserter."
"God damm it!"The new voice. "I don't get it why the Command sending you to death?"
"Koith, please!" This sounded like Marie. "You must stay. You'll dead by this mission!"
"Enough!" Koith commanded. "I need a rest," And there was no more heard of it.
Bullet had transformed and was standing with Viktor now not too far from Junkerton when Koith came into view, walking somewhere. He looked exasperated, but Bullet ook very little notice. He approached Koith. "Hey, Koith. Fancy meeting you here!" He began, trying to sound unsuspicious. "I've been thinking about your offer, and by a weird turn of events ended up hearing about a certain mission that needs some more manpower. I just thought I'd say that if you need any help, I would be willing to join your mission. What do you say? Deal?"
