2994
Human's, we evolves, we adapt, but we are weak. Emotion clouds us, it can strengthen us or weaken us depending on how we feel. Cyber's are robotic humanoids, they don't evolve. Being easily replaced is cause to make one mad but Cyber's feel no emotion, you would think this makes them strong but it doesn't... It makes them weaker. A weak insight, no empathy, the lack of being able to figure out what others are thinking. But on this night, November 13th, 2994 the first clone was created.

Eisenhower was created to look exactly like the Earthen President but when the president was assassinated upon the clones created he was tossed aside like trash. Worth nothing a child stumbled through streets and sewer tunnels when he witnessed rebirth... Four worlds, four capital cities; New Chicago on Earthen, Shadowfell on Mercury, Volcannon on Venus, and Red Spot City on Mars. Four worlds that Humans and Cybers living together, vapor drugs, star speeders, ray guns the whole thing. The world changed drastically, and expanded, it was a great wide solar system, adventure only called.

Eyes looked out over the city, his helmet, built into his body had fourteen cameras built into it. Looking over the city of New Chicago his cameras Focused on a few individuals. "So these are them? My next targets almighty program...?"

((OOC:
Mercury- Dark Mountains, it's never day time.

Venus- Volcanic Planet, green rock, reddish orange lava.

Earth- Entire Planet is a City, some forests, some oceans.

Mars- Desert Planet with red sand.))

Carter sits under the awning of a small Japanese street vendor, packed shoulder to shoulder with other customers, surrounded by steam from the fryers and pots of boiling water. He finishes off the bowl of noodles that he purchased and pulls out his wireless transmitter and reads the new notification text scrolling down its dull screen. He pushes his seat away from the bar and steps out into the rain, pulling up his overcoat and putting on his helmet. He begins making his way through the throngs of people, heading for the seedier part of town to one of the various apartment complexes.

Eyes stood in a dark hotel room a man with his neck broken layed in the bed, "all five targets have been dealt with almighty program." A notification popped up on one of his cameras, next target was in Tokyo X. "I don't understand the mission Program... Don't... Kill... Yet??" Eyes cocked his head to the side, "what is the meaning of this word... Befriend???"

Travel took a few days to arrange but in under a week Eyes arrived in Tokyo X, the Acolyte had arrived. "So where now? Almighty Program??" Finding the home of Carter Corwin he heard the Program speak in another forum, "Mercury? My next target already??" This meant Eyes couldn't kill Corbin yet, just do this odd befriending act but to be candid, Eyes was going to KILL Corbin... Just not yet, the Program wasn't ready to lose Corbin. Eyes would need his services!

Advunturion had roamed the dark regions of Mercury for many days now, disguised as a rogue military drone. Although it was only a matter of time before questions were asked about this AWOL machine's origins, the alien's thirst for exploration was far too great now. So close but yet so far; within the 'solar system,' but Advunturion had not yet made it to Earth, known to the Naekhoric as Terra by his age-old analysis. Knowing the dangers of patrolling Earth's surface within his ship, a definate UFO, Advunturion has taken the long road in his journey to Earth's Palestine. He had no intention of returning to his little ark until he had toured and discovered for himself the lost secrets of Terra's ancient civilizations (as well as a few artifacts to take back as souvenirs).

The alien currently stood inanimate within an near-empty docking bay on the outskirts of the city of Shadowfell. While the wind whistled eerily through the large hanger, an unmanned ship stood docked by an above bridge. The view looking up toward open space would have been beautiful had Advunturion understood such a concept, as the stars of Mercury's evernight sky would've given birth to a serene atmosphere. However, Naekhoric have no time for gawking at tranquility they cannot understand, for the only reason Advunturion continued to stall was only due to the exploring machine quietly pondering how he was going to hijack this lone ship.

The city Advunturion was standing just outside of was Shadowfell, the capital of Murcury. Two notifications popped up on two different cameras, they told Eyes where this extra terrestrial was located and to proceed immediately. "But Alighty Program, what about Corwin?" Eyes knocked on Corwin's front door again, this time harder. Perhaps even he wasn't home. The Program knew all but only sometimes disclosed all the information to Eyes, in the time it took Eyes to get here Corwin could be off world by now. Lurking in Red Spot City on Mars or even Fire Dome on Venus. "Corwin?" Eyes knocked continuously, "open up!"

The cyborg would hear a click behind his head and feel the barrel of a pistol press into his neck. A voice comes from behind him, "Who are you, who sent you, and why are you looking for me?"

Eyes had no weapons, spinning in almost a static flash Corwin was against the wall across from his apartment door. The gun was now in Eyes hands, "greetings Corwin, the Program has instructed me to find you." Corwin would not know who or what this Program entity is, but now with his own gun in his face he would know Eyes was not one to joke with. "Now why would a person like you be so important?" With swift hand movements Eyes broke the gun down into three parts and dropped them on the floor.

Advunturion had finally made his mind up. It was time to take this vessel and proceed to Earth. The ship itself seemed fueled up and capable of space travel, with the few problems the Naekhoric faced were not only hijacking the ship itself, but also deactivating whatever alarm that could possibly ring once Advunturion began his antic. The machine was certainly patient; he could wait for the driver to return, but Advunturion wanted as little business as possible with the fledgeling natives, especially from the documentation Advunturion had wirelessly gathered and translated about the various governments of Homo Sapiens and how they had treat newly discovered races from beyond in the past. While he was not afraid of conflict by any means, Advunturion saw little potential in exposing himself.

Advunturion's strange style of wireless hacking would come into play as he finally approached the doors of the chrome cargo ship. Tapping into a software that he believed to be the ship's security A.I., the alien automaton overloaded the network with a wave of Naekhoriki codes to jam the ship's security measures. He had taken a dangerous gamble here: Possibly activating the cargo alarm prematurely and leaving his imprint all over the network would've immediately exposed him. Evidence of alien activity would've been plain for all to find, but Advunturion had to get off this planet.

However, it seemed luck had indeed shone on the automaton; the cargo doors automatically swung open, and Advunturion sauntered on inside, the ship clanked and clunked as the Naekhorik's metal feet clashed with the steel flooring.

Paying little attention to most of the Earthling interface, the machine simply coordinated a path that would end at the Middle East. Advunturion's quest to find the Ark of the Covenant would commence, completely oblivious to the fact that he was indeed being watched from afar, let alone the target of an assassination.

Carter pushes off the wall, grumbling. He bends over and picks up the parts to his gun and begins reassembling them. As he does this, he talks to the Cyber. "I work as a security measure for the DynaSec corporation. Why would a Cyber like you be interested in me for?" he inquires as he snaps the slide back onto the pistol and holsters it. "S'pose I may have killed off a few of your friends in the past and you're here for revenge." He jokingly says.

"Half Cyber, half human, and I only have one friend... The Almighty Program," Eyes sighed. "So two paths lie before you one leads to hunting a strange entity down and killing it, and the other road leads to a cold darkness that will wrap you up like a blanket before an eternal slumber..."

"Well, This is interesting..." She'd yawn, Piloting her ship, through the darkness of Mercury. She'd slowly land and hop out. She'd sling her blaster rifle and close the hatch to her ship. She'd hop around and think. "Why am I here again?" She'd sit on her ship, Tapping the hatch's glass.

It wasn't long before Advunturion had penetrated Mercury's harsh atmosphere, carving through the black sky like a rising star of fire. It was simple for him to assume that the oblivious hanger staff would soon catch wind of a missing ship, but the machine remained content. There would be little that the police of Shadowfell could do once Advunturion's crime was finally reported, long gone before they found out, as well as being completely ignorant of the alien activity behind the ship's theft. Despite his quiet, severe state of mind, even Advunturion himself was impressed by the cargo ship's resistance to the unforgiving sun behind it, which frankly appeared enormous as Advunturion scanned the various objects outside the ship as it flew towards 'Terra.'

Much to Advunturion's dismay however, it appeared that this hijacked cargo ship was not the only vessel travelling on this side of Mercury's orbit (Or so the living machine thought at least). Perhaps if he just passed through, he'd be ignored? Advunturion himself knew that contact with a Human being was inevitable, but such a thing was just far too soon in his long journey.

She'd open the hatch and climb back into her ship, powering it up. "Time to explore further into mercury's darkness. I wonder what adventure lays ahead." She'd smile, her ship levitating and moving forward at an alarming speed.

Anti-Arcraft missiles target Advunturion's stollen ship, people in these parts didn't mess around. There was a massive prison on this world an any crimes committed to escape via stollen ship were punishable by exicution via homing rocket. The rockets blasted to thrusters out causing the ship to plummet slamming into a dark mountain once more! Fire burns and you have a great deal of broken bones but it will be only a matter of time before the Shadowfell police arrived and arrested or killed you.

Ava you are nearby exploring the strange rock formations when a ship falls from the sky and crashes near you and your ship. It could be a hostile criminal, a wire fried cyber or a normal person who lost control, what do you do???

Her eyes widened. "What in the world was that?" She'd say, flying over to the ship and carefully landing. She'd stare at the flames.
"I have to help!" She'd jump out her ship and run over, she'd blast the hatch open and crawl in. Grabbing Advunturion and pulling him out and into her ship. She'd close the hatch and levitate, Her ship speeding off, away from the crash.

Carter slides the magazine into the pistol with a click and spins it on his finger before holstering it. "I'll take the strange entity bit, sounds leagues better than the other option. Now what exactly do you want me to do?" He keeps one hand on the holstered pistol, gazing at the Cyber in front of him.

"Supply transport, the Program has alerted me that the... 'Entity' is attempting to leave Mercury and his presence on Earth will be threatening to our initiatives." Eyes offered a hand shake for Corwin to take, "you supply me transport to Venus and the Program promises to direct deposit a sum of a hundred and fifty thousand credits into your spending account." What he wasn't mentioning was that he would simply kill the man if he refused the deal on the other hand something else would be triggered with the handshake but was the risk of denying someone of of his league really a good idea for Mr. Corwin?

@Advurturion- Sirens blare in the distance as the fire of the stollen ship begins to spread. The dark mountain air is cool with rare gusts of warm western hemisphere air. You will be either arrested or exicuted in a matter of minutes if you don't pull yourself from the wreckage... Wait a girl pulls you from the wreckage and everything goes black.

@Ava- Your ship isn't as close to his as you would have hoped and by the time you get them you can see the blue and red lights of System Services just over the ridge approaching. As you pull him out of the rubble you have only enough time to get behind a large rock when they arrive. Sneaking from rock to rock is difficult as this entity lugging you down is now completely passed out and leading a blood trail right too you.

You make it back to your ship but not before a tractor beam halts the take off and lowers you slowly downward, "Pilots license and travel papers mam'" an officer says to you through your intercom as you can now tell they successfully hacked your system. If you had only waited a bit longer before taking off you may have found a better opening to escape this dark barren wasteland, but now you would either have to lie, kill, or bribe your way off the planet.

"W-Well, Hello there, Is there a specific and valid reason why I should hand them over?"

Carter doesn't hesitate and grabs the Cyber's hand, shaking it firmly. "So, what's your name?" he lets go and dusts his hand off on his side before picking up his helmet and putting it on. The visor slides down, covering his face. A light blue glow emits as the HUD pops up.

Eyes
As the two shook hands there was a painful pinch in Corwin's palm, "don't mind the tracker... And the name is Eyes, I act as the Eyes for the almighty lord and savior... The Program." Eyes began to follow Corwin out of the building, "so where are we going to get a transport, or maybe the better question is how? Legal Transport with Illigal papers or just an Illigal Transport all together???"

Mercury System Service
"We are authorized to confiscate your vehicle if your paper work isn't in order, or blow it up if we believe you are harboring escaping criminals from the Fahrenheit Correctional Facility near here." The Officer gave a hand gesture and the officers behind him raised their Assult Rifles, "I won't ask again... Papers please."
