God and the State

[Anutsaka]

"Make yourselves at home. Your rooms will have already been made, and you need worry yourselves with security since this entire island, in itself, is the security system, if you will. Now, I must take my leave, to tell Bassarov, that this base has been completed."

Anutsaka gives them his cell-phone number.

"Call me if you meet Deetric and Helene. See you all," Anutsaka says, as he disappears to Bassarov's apartment.

[Bellum - War Horsemen]

Back to a normal personality, Bellum hears Keitoleinen's message and knows that one must return to the graveyard of Capital America to meet up with the angel.

"Matsumara, we must leave. We have a mission to complete. We should go. Where are Pelata and Rutto?"

[Lysander Josef Bassarov]

"Married? Sweet! Thats cool, sure..."

I must be really tired. man.

"Well, you do what you want. Im just really worried about my siblings, what is going on with thtem and stuff. Im not confident that Deetric can raise a family, and hope my mother's parenting skills will be enough... I feel a wierd sense of responsability... like im worried..."

[Anutsaka]

Anutsaka appears next to Bassarov's apartment, politely knocking and waiting for him to answer the door. He would need to tell him the progress on the India base and figure out where he would be needed most in this time of reconstruction.

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov goes to the door and sees that it is Anutsaka.

"Come in, come in! How are things going in Sri Lanka? I thank you for taking this responsibility, but I am sure you can lead those rebels well."

[Kaschei]

((To Machiavelli))

Kaschei waits impatiently outside the Ministry of Terror. He looks at Machiavelli and taps his foot impatiently

"Any day now..." he grumbles, waiting for the dragon to transform

[Devin]

Devin had walked through the city, taking everything he saw without seeing it. Making sure he was far enough from the large Ministry in the city, he took out his notebook. Reaching into his pocket he found his pen, and another object he had picked up during his travels through the city. It was a pale yellow flower.
It had been growing up between some rubble from a building that was falling apart from when it was hit with a bomb. As he saw it, a member of Red Inifinity had walked by, throwing another peice of rubble he had almost tripped on onto the pile, crushing the flower. The man walked on, but Devin stayed looking at the crushed flower. He was compelled to have it, to give it the respect it deserved for its struggles. He had walked to the pile and picked up the severed flower, placing it carefully in his pocket.
He now held it out in front of him. He had decided that he would press it, to preserve its beauty. He laid it down on a stone next to the stairs he sat on and put his pen to the page.

They work
On and on they toil
Knowing only their ideals
But living in contradiction

They strive for equallity
Where life is stable
They want freedom
But serve a master

Lost in conflict
Troubled souls
They uphold their master's will
Not knowing their own

Slaves to their government
Brainwashed by what they thought they wanted
Is truely freedom?
I think not

[Despair]

((This post is to Yamato))
Despair leaves early, and goes to Yamato's office at the Ministry of Technology.

[Ichiro Sazuki]

Ichiro sat down as well. He thought for a few seconds.

Well I do have a human form. I can go into it whenever I want to and stay in it for as long as I want. Hmm...I became a rebel because I dissagree with Red Infinitys ideologies, and also I have seen far to many people die for a strong cause. That is why I am a rebel and a student activist.

Ichiro turned to his human form.



I like this form better. What do you think?

[Chai Ling]

I look over his new form

"Both forms are fine, I prefer your cat form I guess, since it is more natural and you shouldn't have to change how you look to fit into society."

[Anna Khodorkovsky]

"We should try to find Anima again. Since he is an angel, the League might attack him. Want to try driving Lysander darling?"

I pull over and park. I get out and wait for him to take the driver's seat

[Hope98]

"We do need to do more, and the movement here is a little crowded. But for now we will stick around. We should go down into the metro and help with construction."

I take Calithin's hand and glance over my shoulder at Lemminkainen

"Let's go then."

[Kurjuus]

Kurjuus steps towards the angelic priest
"I am not playing games with you, angel. Give up your false religion or face the wrath of the League of the Godless."
He throws his bible onto the ground, into a puddle of mud.

[Ichiro Sazuki]

Ichiro looked at her with thankfull eyes.

Well I totally agree with you, and I like that you were truthfull. But still, in the world we live in, sometimes I have to let prejadice get the better of me. Thankyou for showing me some people around here. Tell me about yourself, I find humans quite facsinating.

[Chai Ling]

"I grew up in Beijing. My parents don't live far from Red Infinity's International HQ. They are supporters of the regime. I would like to see reforms and democratization."

I sit down next to him

"There isn't a lot to say. I was a student there going into the social work program."
