Mark and Hans decide to open up the item Joe and Trina got at that black market auction. Tessie arrives to visit and they ask her to help. It seems that it contained a strange being named Tran who was an experiment of Dr. Viper’s and has explicit instructions for care.
<Hans_Lynx> 4 RPG On!
* Mark_Sulfur sets mode: +o Hans_Lynx
<Tran> ::The manual tells that all you have to do to release him is input the code 5PY-541, his offical name. He is cold blooded so the tempture should not be too cold and make sure after a prolonged stay in chem-o-coma, you have a tray of raw fresh eggs and a jug of pure Pomegranate juice::
<Hans_Lynx> ::can say Joe went upstairs or some such for now, Hans heard about some new delivery XD goes downstairs to check it out::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::is reading this, frowning::
<Hans_Lynx> So what did we buy from the black market, director? ::asks when he reaches the bottom of stairs and enters evidence area. eyes the pod:: An alien?
<Mark_Sulfur> So far, yes.
<Hans_Lynx> Really? And what are we going to do with it? ::if there be a window or anything in that pod, peers through it::
<Tran> ::Manual= WARNING! Unless you wish to unleash a uncontrolable monster, make sure 5PY-541 has a dose of Eggs and Juice every 2 hours to stop uncontrolled mutation. If the mutation takes place, an injection of a mixture of Eggs and Juice will stop the beast::
<Tran> ::Window shows a Tran floating in a light green liquid, limp and lifeless, head hanging down::
<Mark_Sulfur> Try to figure it out. The NSA almost got its paws on it.
<Hans_Lynx> Freaky… ::turns to Mark and goes over where he is:: The NSA? What did they want with this?
<Mark_Sulfur> Not a clue. Lyons wanted to strike a deal.
<Hans_Lynx> Whoah, the queen herself? What kinda deal?
<Mark_Sulfur> Cooperation. ::smirks::
<Mark_Sulfur> Huh… do we have any eggs or Pomegranate juice?
<Hans_Lynx> I take it we’re not cooperating with her? ::grins::
<Mark_Sulfur> Nope.
<Tran> ::Manual= Transformations are in built to the creature. However this will need to be worked on as this member of the 5PY series is non complete::
<Hans_Lynx> ::blinks:: Er… eggs yes… the juice no. You on some new fangled diet?
<Mark_Sulfur> I’m not, but this guy might be. ::hands Hans the manual: I’ll be right back. Need anything from Kat-Mart?
<Hans_Lynx> ::takes the manual:: Er… no. You might have a hard time finding pomegranet juice at KatMart though. I suggest going to vegan places or fruit markets for that.
<Mark_Sulfur> I’ll keep that in mind. ::goes as the mun BRBs!::
<Tran> ::is nude… you can see he isn’t a guy… but he’s not a gal either. is neutral like viper appears to b::
<Hans_Lynx> ::reading over some things in the manual:: <What the heck were you trying to make, Viper?> ::reads up on the shape-shifting abilities and all:: <Well now… least I know why the NSA wanted this er… guy? not really a guy…::
<Tran> ::appears to be. Only refured to as a guy in the same way we call some cars a girl, or a baby… just better to say guy that “it”::
<Hans_Lynx> Well, ::says to the pod now:: soon as Mark gets back with your special diet, we’ll be letting you out. I wouldn’t plan on kissing anyone after that combo however. ::smirks::
<Tran> ::ear twitchs and if the water dosen’t distort it too much, eyes seem to move under the eyelids::
<Hans_Lynx> ::goes over and peers inside there:: Gotta find a better name than 5PY-541 too.
<Tran> ::bubbles float up from the bottom of the pod. to air the water::
<Hans_Lynx> ::raises brow:: <Can he hear me in there?>
<Tran> ::Hears something but not words::
<Hans_Lynx> Can’t believe you need eggs and pomegranet juice every two hours… ::reads to see exactly what happens if he doesn’t get it::
<Tran> ::Manual = Due to the inheriate faults in the Viper Gene, if not feed every two hours, 5PY-541 will undergo a simual tranformation in to a 9 foot high Viperzilla-like mindless creature. Only focused on destroying and death to other species. Not Even Viper Himself can control theses beasts if they get to that stage. Must not be fed anything else, as this triggers the same reaction::
<Hans_Lynx> … huh. Maybe we should call you Gizmo. ::smirks::
<Tran> ((LOL))
<Tran> ::bone thin body floats out the way of anther group of air bubbles::
<Hans_Lynx> ::looks to see if there’s any history on this guy in the manual, like was he made from scratch or used to be something else like Morbulous::
<Hans_Lynx> ((brb! changing lil’ PK’s diaper))
<Tran> ::no history. But he was made like viper himself in a controlled experiment… is is like Morbulous and Viper but seems to be scratch made::
<Hans_Lynx> ((back! XD part of Father’s day present to mah hubby is I’m not making him change any diapers XD)0
<Hans_Lynx> Hrmm… well I’ll go get you some clothes while we wait on Mark to return. Our uniforms are for guys and gals. ::pats the pod then heads over to get some clothing. checks manual to see if Tran’s size is listed::
<Tran> Tran is 7 foot tall and a size zero XD might need a tailor. Plus he can’t morph the clothes he’s made to wear. And if he gets too hot in them he might need to strip to control his blood temputure::
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Arghback))
<Tran> ::when Hans’ back is turned… taps on the glass back… but returns to possition by the time he’d turn round::
<Tran> ((WB))
<Hans_Lynx> Hoookay… ::scritches head at the size ‘n all:: I know some girls who’d be envious of your waist size. Those girls need to eat. ::chuckles to himself.::
<Hans_Lynx> ((wb!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Thankies. ><)))
<Hans_Lynx> ::turns ’round hearing the tap, goes to ze pod and peers in::
<Mark_Sulfur> (::Grudgingly accepted a dinner invitation to a relative’s place she really doesn’t wanna go to::))
<Hans_Lynx> ((everything okay?))
<Tran> ::like nothing had happened::
<Hans_Lynx> ((LOL you should’ve said “I can’t, my feet stench is high today.”))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::dies!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::returns with juice and eggs! oh yay!:: Still down here, Hans?
<Tran> ((::dies::))
<Hans_Lynx> Yep! Learning more about this… er… guy. ::lol opts for that distinction::
<Mark_Sulfur> Guy?
<Hans_Lynx> Well actually this doesn’t give any distinction… and it’s hard to tell but… meh.
<Hans_Lynx> How’d the hunt for his meal go?
<Mark_Sulfur> I managed to grab the last one.
<Hans_Lynx> Well he’s gonna need more in two hours. I think we might wanna have plenty in stock, unless we want Gizmo here to turn into a Gremlin.
* Glitch has joined
<Glitch> ((hey guys!))
<Hans_Lynx> ((hey CK!))
* Hans_Lynx sets mode: +o Glitch
<Mark_Sulfur> Oh, yay. ;:dryly:: I’ll have to see if there isn’t another store nearby.
<Mark_Sulfur> ((heys CK!))
<Tran> ((Yo))
<Glitch> ((how goes it?))
<Hans_Lynx> ((goes good! ‘n you?))
<Tran> ((tired but good))
<Hans_Lynx> Good idea. So… the eggs prepared right and juice ready? Gotta give him the stuff immediately after opening the pod.
<Mark_Sulfur> Right here. ::holds up a bottle::
<Tran> ::eggs must still be in their shells::
<Hans_Lynx> Think we should get some other agents down here in case we need back up or something?
<Glitch> ::has been wanting to play her and sooooooo will come in! hearing voices in….wherever they are! knocks on door lightly:: Hello?
<Hans_Lynx> Down here in evidence! ::calls to the Hello::
<Hans_Lynx> ::flips through manual to see how to open the pod::
<Glitch> ::will go down to evidence! going inside the room and smiles:: I hope I am not intruding. ::in a pretty pink sun dress, hair up on the sides with a pink bow and white sandles::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::bottle of juice and holding the eggs. XD::
<Tran> ::there is a keypad at the base off the pod… type in the code to drain the pod::
<Hans_Lynx> Hey Tessie. Not really, but what brings you here today?
<Glitch> I was close by and thought I would stop and see everyone. Hello, Director Mark Sulfur. Breakfast? ::at the juice and eggs XD::
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Crud. Gotta go. Um… say Mark gave Tessie the juice and eggs and ran to get the phone, kies? ::hugs you all!::))
<Glitch> ((okies! later Sagey! ::hugs!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Laters!))
* Mark_Sulfur has quit IRC (Quit: )
<Tran> ((laters))
<Hans_Lynx> ((doh! missed ‘er))
<Hans_Lynx> Not quite… ::explains the sitch to Tessie::
<Hans_Lynx> ::as Mark handed her the stuff to go get the phone::
<Glitch> ::blinking:: Er….interesting. ::looks at the pod:: you are certain it is safe?
<Hans_Lynx> So long as he keeps up his steady diet it should be.
<Tran> ::might get wet when the pod drains out::
<Glitch> ::oh noooez! hates water! XD:: Very well then. Shall we? ::smiles::
<Hans_Lynx> Alright. ::wheels the pod to open part of the basement where there’s a drain. sets it up and checks manual:: Here we go. ::types in the code given by manual then steps back::
<Glitch> ::stays stepped back so doesn’t get wet!:: Just hand him these things when he exits this pod?
<Hans_Lynx> I’ll let you know when to give them to him. ::smiles::
<Tran> ::pod drains most of it straight down and Tran slowly sinks to the floor with the water level…. a flashing red light appear near the top of the pod and the glass raises up leting a fair amount pour on to the flood… Tran lays on the base of it for a moment, shallow breathing::
<Glitch> ::nods then watches the pod, backing up more as water comes out, trying to stay dry as possible in there:: Is he…alright?
<Hans_Lynx> I’ll go check, stay right here okay? ::removes his jacket quickly, is just in uniform grey pants, black boots ‘n black t-shirt. goes over to Tran, kneeling down to help support him some:: Hey… you alright?
<Tran> ::tail twitches slightly and then raises off the ground, the tip of which bends over and looks like a head, looking at Glitch or rather the food and juice she’s holding… arm moves slowly and starts to press the body upwards::
<Hans_Lynx> Easy now, easy… ::helps Tran to stand and slowly walks him over to where Glitch is::
<Glitch> ::gulps a bit, and will hold out food when he approaches:: Here you go.
<Tran> ::slowly and almost robotically stands, eyes shut, mouth closed… needs no help… eyelids slowly raise to show pure yellow eyes like viper’s:: ….
<Hans_Lynx> ::lets him go noting he doesn’t need any support::
<Hans_Lynx> ::backs up a couple steps::
<Tran> ::looks around… slowly at first. Then starts to get quicker and slightly paniced:: w-w-where is the father? ::starts to back away from them::
<Glitch> Father? ::looks to Hans, confused herself on that one::
<Hans_Lynx> He’s not here. You’ve been taken to the Megakat Bureau of Investigation. My name is Hans Lynx, and this is Tessie Reed.
<Hans_Lynx> ::quietly to Tessie:: He means Dr. Viper I’d wager.
<Glitch> oh…::nods:: Like my creator then….::understands now::
<Tran> ::worried look on his face:: Please… The Father will be angry with me if I am not there to assist him ::looks at hans:: Please… I don’t want another trip to the vat… Please ::gets on his knees:: … :::blinks and ears twitch. looks around the room:: I have been taken? … Then you are my new masters? ::light smile::
<Hans_Lynx> Don’t worry, Dr. Viper- er your father won’t get you here. ::smiles assuredly:: And I wouldn’t call us ‘masters’. We’re more like friends. Here, have something to eat. ::nods to Tessie::
<Glitch> ::goes over to offer him the juice and eggs, smiling:: Here you go. Eat up. It’ll make you feel better perhaps?
<Tran> ::blinks and smiles. Goes to take an egg… then takes his tand away quickly:: Erm… I can’t… repay these meal. ::pouts:: And I can’t address my better without stating they are my master, master and mistress
<Hans_Lynx> ((brb!))
<Glitch> ((okies!))
<Glitch> ::blinks:: You do not have to repay us. And we are not your betters. WE just helped you is all. Please…take. ::smiles still, offering them:: we got them for you. WE have no need of them aside to feed you.
<Tran> … ::gulps:: What will you ask me to do in return? I do not wish to hurt anyone
<Glitch> Er…we ask nothing of you in return. They are completely free.
<Tran> … ::looks at her… then takes an egg in his claws, raises it to his mouth and pierces the shell with his sharp tongue and sucks out the contents:: Ahhhhh
<Glitch> ::cringes some:: How can you eat something such as that? ::sitting in a nearby chair while he eats::
<Hans_Lynx> ((back!))
<Tran> ::sucks out 3 more eggs the same way and has a swing of juice:: My cells can not handle anything else, Mistress… and besides… I like eggs
<Tran> ((WB))
<Glitch> ((WB!))
<Glitch> ::laughs:: I see…and please, you may call me Tessie or Glitch. I am not your Mistress.
<Hans_Lynx> the only thing we ask of you in return is that you stay here at the MBI with us. ::smiles:: Tell me, do you have a name?
<Tran> ::ears droop:: I can’t, Mistress Tessie…::turns to Hans… who is a little scary XD:: I am refered to as 5PY-541, Master… 541 if you are in a hurry
<Glitch> ::Frowns some, noticing some of the characteristics she had when she was first away from DK:: Do you have a name you would prefer to be called other than 541?
<Hans_Lynx> ::lol I’m a whole foot shorter than you XD how can I be scary? ;D::
<Hans_Lynx> ((LOL! <Glitch>::starts up a support group for SK villain’s creations::))
<Glitch> ((<Tasha> You’ve not seen yourself in the mornings! whooo! Scary!))
<Glitch> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Hans_Lynx> ((LOL! <Hans> ::sad face::))
<Glitch> ((<Tasha> Its mainly that breath….))
<Tran> ((::DIES!!!!!!!!::))
<Hans_Lynx> ((::dead:: <Hans> My breath smells better than your pits at least. Pew!))
<Glitch> ((<Tasha> my pits do not stink! Thats your feet!))
<Tran> ::you are scary cause you look like you could be a cruel master if you choose to be… looks down at Tess as he drinks again:: I am not allowed a name… I am a tool… a thing… Names are for kats and The Father
<Tran> ((::dies:: Ahhhhhh love::
<Glitch> I used to think that too. I have a name now. ::smiles still:: You are no longer a simple tool. you are free.
<Hans_Lynx> ((LOL))
<Hans_Lynx> That’s right. You can do whatever you want here. Relax, rest, enjoy life.
<Tran> ::shakes his head:: Although I might look like a proper being, I am not… I am a mere expierment and should be treated as such… as the Father said
<Glitch> ((<Hans>….have pet lizards…. <Tran>::holding lizards:: They are not PETS! They are my brothers and sisters! @___@ <Hans> Er….sure…..whatever…))
<Tran> ((::ROFL::))
<Glitch> I was an experiment too. My dad showed me how my creator lied to me only to make me do what he wanted, instead of what was good for me.
<Hans_Lynx> ((::dies!::))
<Tran> … ::blinks:: You were created by the father as well? And what is good for me, is to serve… it protects me from harm ::means the beattings::
<Glitch> I was not created by the same father you were, but I am a created being. I was told I was a servant too, and that I was not good enough. The MBI and my dad have shown me I am better than what he wanted me to be. They can help you too if you let them.
<Hans_Lynx> ::glad Tessie is here as she can relate better to Mr. 541. we all have daddy issues but his isn’t like theirs. ;D closes up that pod and moves it to evidence out of the way ‘n all, listening to the two:;
<Tran> ::blinking and crouches down to her high and smiles:: You deserve the life… I am merely a servant… I can do nothing more than serve… but if you wish for me try, I will do as you ask Mistress Tessie… ::bows::
<Glitch> ::smiles:: Please try. First task is to come up with a name for you. Can you think of something you’d like to be called other than the name given to you by your father? ::smiles over at Hans. wants Tran to bond with him too. KNows how important it is he bond with kats to help him::
<Tran> … I was made to mutate repeatly… is that somehow helpful Mistress?
<Hans_Lynx> ::finishes cleaning up things then goes to join them::
<Glitch> mutate repeatly? How so?
<Tran> … Well the Father… he wishes to make sure anything he uses on himself will not endanger his mind… so my series was made to be able to mutate and morph back to our current form… Over time I have gained the able to transform without chemical agents as triggers
<Glitch> Oh! I see. Could that be useful, Agent Lynx? ::looking over::
<Tran> ::looks back and bows lightly:: Master Lynx
<Hans_Lynx> For a name…? I dunno how transforming could be worked into a name…
<Hans_Lynx> And please, call me Hans.
<Tran> ::smiles:: Okay Master Hans
<Glitch> I can process a list of names…::will access the net via her mind and starts spouting off some suitable names. If you like Tran or some version of it can be among them::
<Hans_Lynx> ::sighs and shakes his head a bit. is what his nanny used to call him when he was little and had one XD::
<Hans_Lynx> Maybe shorten some of those…
<Hans_Lynx> :;to Tessie and her list::
<Glitch> :nods and starts shortening some names that can be::
<Tran> ::Tran is all he is ever called XD… blinks at the way tessie is doing that and lightly whispers “Tran” to himself:: … … I like the name Tran, Mistress
<Glitch> ::pauses and smiles:: Then Tran you will be called. Welcome to the MBI, Tran.
<Hans_Lynx> ::smiles:: Yes, welcome aboard. ::offers hand to shake::
<Tran> ::light blush… all his body turns a slight shade of red::
<Glitch> ::blinks then giggles at the red::
<Tran> ::looks at the hand::… ?
<Hans_Lynx> ::chuckles a bit himself:: Here. ::reaches and tries to take Tran’s hand in his, then gently shakes:: It is how kats greet one another.
<Tran> ::deformed claws slowly clasp the hand as he gets the idea:: Most interesting
<Hans_Lynx> ::nods:: You got the hang of it. ::smiles then lets go:: There are several agents here as well as various friends like Tessie here you’ll be meeting soon enough, Tran.
<Glitch> ::nods:: They have really helped me through my transition from servant to my creator, to being my own kat. You too will see that in time.
<Tran> ::rubs the back of his neck:: I doubt I will see myself as anything other than a thing, Mistress ::you may have let go Hans but Tran hasn’t XD those claws are sharp at the point::
<Glitch> You will in time. Trust me. It is difficult to imagine at first, but you will.
<Hans_Lynx> ::pries his hand from Tran’s then lol XD::
<Tran> ::is quite a weak creature so that is no prob Hans ^^:: Well I only hope I am not a dissappointment Mistress
<Glitch> You will not be. ::stands:: Do you need anything else then? Or we can find you a place here to reside if you wish.
<Hans_Lynx> I’ll get someone to get you more eggs and that juice as you need them every two hours.
