"Hm... Could you take us there if we returned to the Dojo?" Carly asked, glancing over at Vaughn then back at Cylus

[quote]*Well then off we go!* Q says before once again taking the lead.[/quote]

The group followed behind, and eventually they re boarded the ship, which pulled Away from the station and lurched forward, entering FTL back to the Dojo
-
"This ought to be fun." Cylus says. "Anybody got a map of the landmarks outside of the dojo?" he asks
-
"Yeah, I'll send it over." Marker tapped onto the pad on his forearm, sending Cylus a map
-
Cylus received the map on his wrist console and pulled it up on a small hologram. He scans it quickly before pointing to a particular mountain range. "There. That's where Barry and I arrived." he says. On closer inspection, it was clear that he was pointing to the Ko Rudo Mountains.
-
"Huh. Kinda suprised you didn't find the base up there. We'll drop in there." Marker said, pointing at the area where the base was.
-
"There's a Militia base up there? That makes things a whole lot easier." Cylus says
-
"No, not Militia. The Alliance Base is up there, Remember?"
-
[quote]*[b]I[/b] remember!* Q exclaims[/quote] "Ah you're right. I got myself mixed up with the Alliance Op I went on against Cerberus. My bad." Cylus replies. "The base is only a little ways from where I'm guessing the rift is, so we'll get there a lot quicker now."
-
"Oh speaking of the Op, how did that go? That squad was solid?"
-
"Of course, Aidan's team worked great. Plus I made connections with the Alliance and learned about what we're dealing with in terms of Cerberus. So all in all, it was a two in one deal." Cylus replies.
-
"Good, good. I'm glad it worked out. The more you know, the easier this damn war will be." Marker said, checking his data pad "By the way, it's officially the next day. So our little episode with The UNSC happened yesterday." Marker said, chuckling slightly. [i]One day after "Friend or Foe" One day prior to Harmony's Invasion [/i]
-
"All this flying is going to mess up my sleeping schedule. What would I call this? Space-lag?" he comments jokingly
-
"Yeah, sure. That's one way of putting it i guess. How you liking it, Q?"

He was standing in the back of the drop ship curling and uncurling his fingers. *I've analyzed and downloaded Cylus' fighting patterns as well as added other aspects that I've picked up along the way. Improvements, if you will.* [/quote] "[i]Improvements?[/i] Don't get cocky pal." Cylus says. [quote]*I just changed it to better suit me. You prefer to take the hit instead of block it. You take that and use it as a counter. I on the other hand, can't. Not [b]all[/b] of us can get shot and stabbed and walk away from the fight like nothing happened.*[/quote] "Ah, you [i]do[/i] have a point." Cylus laughs. "Smart thinking as always, Q."
-
"Always the-" He was cut off by the lurch of the ship as it exited FTL. The dropship rose up, dashing out of her hangar and flying towards the planet "I'm excited!" Carly said, looking around the small dropship
-
"Aren't we all?" Cylus looks to Carly. [quote]*Marker, you were saying something.* Q says politely[/quote]
-
"Bah! Nevermind. We're about to change this war, we're about to change everything!"
-
"I like the sound of that!" Cylus exclaims
-
Soon afterwards, they landed at the Alliance/Militia base, and went off to find the portal. Vaughn's device led them through the mountain range, eventually finding the Area Cylus had come from
-
Cylus walked ahead, looking around the area. "This should be it." he calls out. He kneels down by a cliff, the snow bombarding his hood. "Over here!" he calls. "I can feel it!" [quote]*This does look familiar. Even with all the snow and stuff.* Q comments[/quote]
-
"I see a rift like thing, you get the frequency, Vaughn!" "Aye, Lassie! Ready to send it." "Alright, whatever your message is, Cylus. Say it now."
-
Approaching the rift as it became visible Cylus walked until he was directly in front of it. It was nearly invisible against the mountains and rush of snow from afar, so it would be hard to find unless you knew of its existence. "God I hope his team picks this up." he mutters. He clears his throat before speaking. "Barry! Barry Allen! It's me, Cylus, contacting you from the other side! I'm calling in a favor... Again. I don't have much time to talk, so if you or your team somehow get this, I need you to come meet me on the mountain where you brought me. This is important, so I'll be waiting..." Upon finishing his message, Cylus stepped away from the rift. The singularity emitted energy in pulses, and not even Q could doubt its presence. [quote]*And now, the hard part... We wait.* [/quote]
-
"Sending the message through, attempting to find a common frequency between the two dimensions." Carly said, placing the multi helmet on as she looked at the rift "I've got it. Message has sent, Lassies and gents!" Vaughn said excitedly, kneeling down as he tapped away at the data pad
-
"It shouldn't be long now. In matters like these, he's always on time." Cylus says [quote]*What shall we do while we wait?* Q asks[/quote]
