"What are you talking about? Sit this one out?" she said almost outraged. "I've...been your partner for how many years? And now you are telling me sit this one out?" she said as she walked to the door. She opened it with one hand and looked at him with the most furious look she had ever given him. She felt almost betrayed by this, him letting her go for Shianne; but she knew she would be in the same position later on.. With a sigh she then mustered out a growl, "Get out."

Tyson obeyed, expecting Onyx's reaction. He stepped outside, sighing. Just as he stepped outside, the red-haired elder saint walked past the room. "We should talk. the man said. Tyson nodded, following him down the hallway. "I'm sorry about what happened with those chronos, putting you in danger was our fault." the man began, not even looking at Tyson as he spoke. "What's done is done, and we have bigger problems. I have reason to believe that my team's tempress, Onyx, might be working with the chronos. I would like a scout assigned to watch her for a couple of days, to test my theory." Tyson said, also not looking at the man when he spoke. "It will be arranged. Also, the enhancement technology you asked for has been finished. If you still want it, its in the lab" the old man said. Tyson stopped walking with the man, infront of a door which said "Biotech lab". Tyson watched as the man continued his walk, disapearing from sight shorty.

"Wonderful.." she said as she walked away from the door and to her bed. She sat down, and put her head in her hands. "What am I going to do? Am I strong enough to lie to these people who saved me from my own demise, and to betray and kill them? I can't; but now they are suspicious..And I will be killed.. I have to find something to do, I can't keep fighting this anymore. I need to figure out what to do." she said at a whisper. She sighed and grabbed the chips she had bought from her bag.

Shianne laid on her bed, staring at the ceiling, racking her brain until it started to hurt. Tyson was strong, and had reason to be. But she did not, and was weak because of it. Shi sighed loudly, rolling over and screaming into the pillow. Her water skills were weak, and her stamina was worse. Not to mention she could never think of anything clever to say. She stood up, wincing at her ribs, but walking out into the hallway and downstairs to the Biotech lab. She opened the door and asked, "I'd like something. Anything. Just make me stronger. I can't be a burden anymore..."

When Shianne entered the lab, Tyson was sitting on an operating table. He saw her immediatly, smiling at the burden comment. He had a bandage on his neck, covering a puncture wound from a needle. "You're still young Shianne. And you're not a burden. If you weren't in that last battle I probibly wouldn't still be here." Tyson said, jumping off of the table. "An enhancement at your age could ruin the rest of your life. Be sure it's what you want before you throw your future away"

Shi thought for a few minutes, lifting herself onto a table. She looked up, "I don't mind... I just want to help, any way I can."

"Alright then, what do you want?" Tyson said, nodding to the doctor who was also in the room. The doctor walked to a desk in the room and pulled out a wooden box. He placed the box on the desk and opened it. Inside were four different test tubes, placed neatly inside. "Its your choice" the doctor said, showing the selection to Shianne.

Inside the box were 4 vials, one blue, green, red and silver. They all sat on black velvet. They made her nervous, but curious at the same time. She pulled out the silver one gently and nodded. The doctor bustled around, doing a few things, while a nurse inserted an IV into her arm. Shi winced a bit but took it. The doctor soon injected her with the liquid. He let it sit for a few minutes, and removed the IV, and patched her up.

"Let that heal over, and you'll see results in, eh, a few days I should say. Don't push it right off the get go though, bad side effects..."

She nodded, understanding the delecate process.

"Hope you'll be ready when for our next hit on those Chronos" Tyson said, cracking his nuckles. "I'll give you two days to collect yourelf. Hopefully we'll be able to trust Onyx by then" he sighed, shaking the doctor's hand. He turned towards the door and opened it, waiting to see if Shianne would follow.

Shianne slid off the lab table, shaking a slight bit of lightheadedness away. She quickly followed after her, a bit worried about what she had done, but excited to see what it was.

"Alright Shianne. Rest up these next few days, do whatever you need to prepair yourself for our next fight. I'll see what I can do about increasing our numbers, but until then assume it's just gonna be the two of us against the target" Tyson said, looking at his cell phone. "Cya around" he smiled, walking off towards his room.


After his conversation with Tyson, the red haired elder saint continues his march down the hall, stopping at a door marked S.A.D. He enteres quietly, closing the door behind him. Inside the room is dark, lighted only by a glowing television screen. Sitting on a large sofa near the television screen is an even larger man watching the screen. "Lutenant Stall. We have an assignment for you. It appears that our mixed-unit team failed to capture a very important target. I've decided to give the contract to you and your squad. Will you accept?" the elder saint asks, approaching the sofa. "Alright. I'll have my squad ready for depart in an hour" Stall answeres with a gigantic, deep voice. "Good" the saint says, tossing his client a disk and leaving the room. An hour later Stall and four other soldiers, dressed similarly to S.W.A.T. operatives, leave the saint's hq in a large black SUV heading for the wrecked neighborhood where Tyson's team encountered the chronos.

Onyx woke up in a weird position with her head on her pillow and legs off of her bed. She blinked a few times and scurried to check to the time, but couldn't find her phone. She hurried to get her clothes on, something as casual as a pair of black jeans and a black fitted tee shirt. She then threw her boots on, and grabbed her bag. She walked through the door, and saw that the elders had ordered a SWAT team. She walked up and was filled in, although they left out some details, and she knew that they were suspecting her of the worst. She sighed, put her bag down, and nocked on Tyson's door hoping to talk to him. She saw that it was unlocked so she walked in, and chuckled at the sight of him still asleep. She took a seat and waited..

Tyson woke up suddenly, as if from a nightmare, swiftly sitting upright and punching the air infront of him. A strait sword blade, 3 feet long, jumped from his arm and sliced into the air. Tyson was still wearing his combat gear. Tyson opened his fist and brought it back to his side, the blade firing back into his sleeve just as fast as it came out. "Oh, Onyx. Sorry you had to see that" Tyson says, thowing the beds sheets onto the floor and putting his feet onto the ground. "Is their anything I can do for you?" Tyson asks, whiping the sweat from his forehead.

The SUV stops in the neighborhood where Gabriel, or Jake, lived. The houses that were destroyed in the battle were completely repaired, so that not even the civilians would know a fight took place. "Spread out, stay in touch. If you encounter the target, call backup, then engage" Stall orders as the 5 person squad bursts out the back, double doors of the SUV. The soldiers, mostly Saints, disapear from sight instantly. Stall remains visable, walking the streets with a high powered rifle as if it were the most normal thing in the world.

Onyx jumped back immediately, as she knew he did suspect the worst. She re-grouped and bit the side of her lip. "What is going on with the SWAT team? I woke and the elders were talking about it.." she said as his expression went almost blank. "Is there..something up with us?" she asked quietly. "I haven't been myself, I know..but you haven't been yourself around me either. Even since our last mission.."

Duama kneeled next to Seth(forgot your name shadow??) as hiro peeked out the window.

"well that didnt take long looks like the saints have sent in the next wave"

Duama walks up to Hiro and glances out quickly closing the curtain after glancing at the badges.

"and it's the boy scouts this time. We've gotta meet them before they make it here, otherwise you-know-who'll freak."

Hiro nodded as both he and Duama snuck out the side door in between houses positioning themselves to take out the grunts.

Damn i'm still wiped from the last battle the most I can hope for is maybe a partial transformation Duama thought moments later he spies the first grunt.

"*sigh* here we go." Duam runs out and tackles the grunt, this knocks the gun out of reach and forces him to face Duama hand to hand.
