NPF Avatars 5 - Another Version Of The Truth

"Hm.... Why is it so dark in here? You'd think NexGen would know to keep the lights on in the transporter room. I guess there's a reason we keep him so far off-world, huh? Now, where is that light switch hiding? Mm? Oh right, thanks Anima. Here we go!"

As the lights came on, Flare and Arhra Two found themselves in a very different environment from the cold vacuum of space in which they were just a moment before. Beneath them was a circular transporter pad constructed of plastic and metal, which itself was surrounded by burgundy carpet, and the futuristic appearance of the several computer consoles lining the walls was offset by what appeared to be 1890's-style wood paneling.

"Welcome aboard the POS Industries private frigate Riyal," Rei Zeus greeted the pair as she absent-mindedly played with an emerald bracelet that adorned her left wrist, "Couldn't have my new fianc�e die in space, now could I? And Flare, I believe that you're still under our employ, so it seemed reasonable to bail you out of a bad situation. Be a shame to inadvertently kill off one of our contractors like that, you know?"

------------------------------------------------------------

"Ho snaps! The Double-Deuce!" Rei Overdrive cried out as the various projectiles impacted against her, knocking her backward and breaking the energy net she had constructed around the megazord.

"Hehe, looks like that big ugly thing can fight after all! Yay! And here I was worried that this might not be any fun.... Well, let's try this!"

Generating a large ball of energy in her hand, Rei hurled the orb at the zord before leaping upward, transforming the glowing hands of her giant outer body into long blades, intent on slicing the NPFers mech into ribbons as she descended upon it.

"DEATH FROM ABOVE!!"

------------------------------------------------------------

"Aha! Not a stickler for details when you go about creating a universe, are ya?"

"Well, to be honest," Nihilem shrugged after Mesden goatsed her way into the noticeably obliterated Pantheon of the Gods, "I haven't exactly found the 'Create' button on these god powers yet. 'Destroy', sure, it seems like all my powers do that nicely, but I'm not entirely sure if I can actually make anything. I do apologize for the mess, of course. I was in a bit of hurry when I arrived. Let me see if I can spruce things up a bit...."

Turning his attention to a nearby pillar, he raised his hand slightly and conjured forth the same manifested aura of emptiness that had obliterated the Pantheon and, before that, all of Gaia. The shadow quickly enveloped the broken pillar, churning in place for a moment before dissipating and revealing a statue of Mesden, Mauve, and Flare that had been instantaneously sculpted from the marble:

"Well, just because I can't create doesn't mean I can't get creative, I suppose," Nihilem chuckled as he returned his gaze to Mesden, "Anyway, Mesia dear, welcome! How have you been? Where have you been? And how did you make that portal, by the way? I got here by simply destroying the barriers between planes of existence, but that seems awfully messy and more than a bit rude. Kinda like just bashing your way through the wall Kool-Aid Man style, you know? Is there a special trick to the portal-making or is my way basically the same thing? Oh, there is so much to learn! Very exciting stuff, indeed!"

Pedros paused momentarily as he remembered his role in the story, and he attempted to subdue his giddiness for at least a moment.

"Incidentally, have you seen Raiden's kid around here anywhere? He didn't look like he was in the room when I came in, though he certainly wouldn't be in here afterward, either.... Anyway, I kinda thought killing him might get on ol' Mr. Sparkle's nerves. Thoughts? Suggestions?"
