Lokyan paced through his compound purposefully. In truth, it was the largest hideout he'd had since... well, ever. He was so used to boltholes on Kahje and safehouses on the Citadel that even now he felt as if the compound was too big. However, the size did give him space to train his followers, and he'd decorated with artefacts he'd 'liberated' from Rakhana, the dead world of his people. The main hallway was lined with ancient sandstone statues of ancient Drell warlords, poets, and kings, restored after centuries of sandstorms and the death throes of the Drell left behind. He smiled as he looked up at them. Soon, there would be a new generation of free Drell and, hopefully, soon his likeness would join the lines of kings that dominated the hallway.

But the Hanar seemed intent on ruining his day. "Damned jellyfish" he muttered. "First those 'Knife Hunts', now I've got assassins flocking to his ranks and three recon teams late on reporting. This just can't get worse."

The airlock of the Claudia opened, and Tobias stepped out, making his way towards the CIC.

"Trish!  Looking radiant as ever!  Did you miss me?"  He said as he walked into the command center.

"Save the cheesy come on Tobias, you know damn well I'm spoken for.  The only reason I am here is because you have impressed the Asari government with your recent...activities.  Speaking of which, I assume your latest excursion was a success?"  Trishka responded in her usual no bullshit tone.

"That it was.  Now I think it is about time we set up a parley with our favorite Drell terrorist and psychopathic jellyfish.  This whole Sobakov situation has the potential to blow the lid off this planet, and I would very much like to put that off as long as possible."  Tobias said as he made his way towards a console.

"You're playing a dangerous game here Tobias.  I hope you know what the hell you're doing."

"As do I.  If not, well then we're all pretty much dead."  Tobias replied before setting his console to record and send a transmission to both Lokyan and Analdrun.

"Gentleman I think you both will agree that events as of late have caused tensions to be quite high in our little colony.  And it is my sworn duty to ensure that those tensions do not boil over into something infinitely more violent.  I therefore think it will be to all of our benefit if we had another one of our sit downs.  I suggest we meet in two days time, at noon, aboard my ship, the Claudia.  As usual you will be escorted from the gates to my hanger.  I would also like to remind you that only yourselves and your closest bodyguard shall be permitted aboard the ship, for your own peace of mind.  Any security entourage you may travel with will be forced to await your return outside my vessel.  As the trusted mediator in these matters, I assure you both that you will be safe as long as you are upon grounds under my control.  I look forward to discussing these pressing matters with you both.

Captain Tobias Westen, out"

Ka'agar's eyes flew wide at the unexpected hit from behind, his screech of brief pain incredibly high pitched as he fell to his knees. He instantly looked behind him for the source of the attack, claws ready to kill whatever it had been until he saw only Maeve standing there. His expression of bewilderment must have looked quite comical to everyone else, but he genuinely did not understand.

Why does she hit? I only do what is expected of me.  Without a word he calmed himself enough to stand, gingerly rubbing the back of his knee on the way up. His head hung like a dog who'd just been scolded.

Lokyan grimaced as he closed his Omnitool. The last thing he needed was to deal with was Tobias, the only reason he hadn't wiped the damned Jellyfish off the map.

Hyun would be back from Japan in time for the meeting, and he had the feeling that she'd be needed.

Thema Cisse tapped in the commands to separate the captain's cabin from the Tartarus with practiced ease. The roof spun open as the small shuttle rose up into the night sky.

"Very good. The other's willingness pleases this one. This one shall take you to its most prized possession..." Analdrun said, facing the holographic wall.

The shuttle made its away across Aldrun, docking in the small port of the Rouger Trading and Entertainment Building.

Maeve motioned the Vorcha and her slave to follow after the ship landed and the front door slid open. Stepping outside, she took in the familiar sight of the cathedral-like building, with domed, painted roof and intricately decorated walls. A red carpet marked the path before them, leading to the third section, the Coliseum, home to Analdrun's favorite forms of entertainment.

Thema took up second, steps behind Maeve, and directly in line with Analdrun. The recent murders initiated by Lokyan's crew had set her on edge; she was every bit ready to throw herself in front of Analdrun should a threat present itself.

A huge archway awaited the group, leading into an balcony high above the ampitheater, from which a roaring, gutteral crowd could already be heard.

Nick stepped off his private ship. His ship would've been targeted had it not been for Analdrun's ships escorting him into the system. He hoped that he can strike a deal with the Hanar in hopes are setting a foothold on the rapidly growing pirate hub.

He was closely followed by his 4 personal guards, all wearing Prototype armor and the newest Sionis Industries guns. As he made his way to the meeting spot Analdrun had told him, he looked around. According to his research, the city was divided in three, one side belonging to Analdrun, and another owned by some 'freedom fighter' Drell pirate. He scoffed at the idea, as nobel as the drell's goal is, it's a futile attempt. He began to approach the Analdrun Ship. He was rather early to their set meeting time, but he decided he should check in with Analdrun just in case.

Almost instantly Ka'agar's eyes went from moderately bored to wide in excitement at the introduction of the coliseum, And he scrambled forward to get a better view of the main stage. He hopped onto the back of a plush chair and sat on his haunches, grinning widely at the display below. He turned back for a moment, exuberance filling his voice and making him slightly high pitched.

"Have seen this before on Heshtok! Tribe have pit for fighting; lots of blood and death!"

Sam looked out over Analdrun's Colosseum with a blank face. In a moment, a surge of forgotten memories surged back into his mind. What should have been his death, his salvation, and his hard earned glory. He remembered the faces of frequent patrons and the face of the salarian who always threw him a snack after every fight. He even remembered the stench of that unholy fighting ring. His face twitched, It wasn't normal to remember things after having them erased. After a flurry of thinking which lasted no longer than his flashback, he had made up his mind on the matter and moved onto something else.

He turned his head away from the Colosseum and to Analdrun. "Are the fighters any good?" He asked, hoping the answer wasn't no.

Alec wandered around Drun for the better part of a day. The sun was high in the air, and he was... bored. Utterly, totally, BORED! His fun sense had been silent all day, and he was beginning to think that a planet full of bloodthirsty pirates got amazingly less violent as they got closer and closer. Like Ninjas in movies, a sort of... Conservation of Ninjutsu effect.

"Hmm. Maybe I should check the Extranet and see if it's already been discussed. Maybe a site about Tropes on Television." He mused aloud as he kicked dust down the street. It was then that he passed something he didn't think he'd see on such a planet.

A Toy Store!

And in the window, something he'd thought he'd never see again. "A 'My Pretty Horsie'!?" He exclaimed aloud.

Are you seriously still on the Horse thing? Sandra asked. It's a TV show for little girls.

"Sandra. We've had this conversation. That show is witty and funny beyond it's demographic, AND I NEED IT RIGHT NOW! IT'S A LIMITED EDITION SHYFLY! And that **** Cassidy isn't here to buy it before me like she did all those years ago."

He blinked. "I feel like something just tried to censor me."

Don't be such an uncultured ****, Sandra. Clara replied Pity it's not Prism Rush though. Shyfly ****ing sucks. It was Clara's turn to blink. I feel it too. A disturbance in my vocabulary.

"Nevermind that. Let's get in there now!" Alec exclaimed as he pushed open the door and ran inside, grabbing the small toy package off of the shelf and running to the counter. "One Collector's edition Shyfly!" He yelled as he placed it before the cashier, who looked from the small yellow pegasus on the counter to the cybernetic mercenary with the giddy look on his face.

The Turian raised an eyeplate. "Sir? Are you getting this for your... Daughter, or something? Not too many people like you come in here."

"No..." Alec said, puzzled. "It's for me. I've wanted one of these for a while."

"Uuuhhh huuuuuh." The cashier replied. "That'll be 300 Credits."

"Alrighty then, have a good day!" Alec said with a smile. He grabbed the toy from the counter and opened it, placing the horse on his shoulder, his arm's built-in Eezo Generators causing it to stick there. "Come on Shyfly, there's a marathon on tonight! We have so much to catch up on!"

Ha! Eat it Cassidy! It may have taken five years, but we finally got the Shyfly!

... You guys have no lives...

"Go away Sandra. We're enjoying ourselves." The mad merc replied as he headed back to his ship, unaware of the shadowy figure that was following him. "I'm suddenly aware of a shadowy figure following us." He added, narrowing his eyes.

You son of a ****, fine Alec, you want to play like that? Quick as a flash, the figure swooped down and grabbed the figure off Alec's shoulders, and he could swear he heard the Pegasus' soft voice crying for his help before the figure shoved her into the bag on its hip.

"Hey! Give her back!" Alec yelled.

Yeah! We've waited too long for this!

Oh for god's sake. Just kill this fool and get on with it.

Alec pulled Clara out of her holster and pointed her at the figure. "Drop the horse and nobody gets hurt." He growled, making an otherwise silly request sound very serious.

"Really Alec?" She said with a ****y smile. "Don't you remember how this turned out on Omega? The horse is mine."

"Cassidy." He scowled. "You already got a Shyfly. I watched you steal it from my very fingertips. Why do you want this one?"

"Because I broke it."

"J- W- THAT MAKES MY POINT EVEN MORE SALIENT! You don't even know how to take care of a collectible!" He yelled.

"Doesn't matter. I have the horse now, and she's staying with me. Ta ta!"She called before running down the street, leaping onto the rooftops.

"Oh no you don't!" Alec yelled, chasing after her. He leaped onto the rooftops, pounding the tiles as he made his way after his rival, firing occasionally as the nimble thief seemingly dodged bullets, taking them across the entire city, before they wound up in a completely new place. Tobias' section of the city. The edge of the city rapidly approached, the sands shifting just beyond where the buildings ended. Cassidy stopped at the edge of the city, obviously not familiar enough with the layout to have eluded Alec.

"Drop. The. Bag." He growled, pulling Sandra from her sheath.

"Make me." Cassidy shot back, drawing her own blade, a thin, french blade.

"Ach, ye wee frog! Tha's not a blade, this is a blade!" He cackled, his scottish claybeg a much more impressive blade.

"We'll see." She said, jumping forward, flashing her blade. Alec caught the blade on his sword, surprised that the thing didn't snap in half. He swung Sandra again and again, her blade whistling through the air as Cassidy ducked and weaved, dodging every slash.

"Stay the **** still!" He yelled.

Seriously, how is she doing this?

"I think she's cheating!" Alec replied, exasperated. "How am I supposed to cut her with that going on?"

Hellooooooooo Clara called. I'm a gun, remember?

"Oh yeah." The Merc replied, quick-drawing Clara and firing thrice, the bullets pinging off of Cassidy's shields.

Frustrated, Cassidy jumped at Alec, aiming to stab at his leg, only to feint and instead go for his heart. Yet Alec somehow caught the blade, causing it to go straight into his arm, puncturing the synthflesh. "Wh- How did you?" She stammered as the merc raised his arm, carrying the smaller woman up with it as the artificial skin healed around it, keeping it there.

"I read the narration." He said simply, as if he were telling a child something obvious. He flicked Sandra casually, cutting the bag from Cassidy's armour. "Now get out of here."

The woman complied, scampering away from the site of her defeat as Alec ruffled through the bag, placing the small yellow toy in it's rightful place and yanking the sword out of his arm. "All is right with the universe." He simply said.

Hooray! Clara replied, clapping her hands excitedly.

Hooray... I guess. Can we go home now?

Yes! We'll be just in time for the new episode! I heard it's a Shyfly episode as well!

"Caliente Damnanito!" Alec exclaimed. "All right, we'll go home, watch it, **** online, THEN we go and kill Cassidy."

Wait. Why did you let her run away then?

"In case I can't find anything else to do later. The Narration's not keeping up his part of the bargain. He gets to stay in my head so long as he comes up with things to do."

Well I'm sorry Alec. There hasn't been really much for you to do, I mean, you really are sort of a jo-

"Don't you DARE call me a Joke Character."

Did you just... Interrupt the Narration?

"Quiet, voice in my head. Send me home, and we can end this discussion that looks wierd to everyone else."

Okay, okay, jeez. Ahem...

With his prize reclaimed and sitting in her rightful spot on his shoulder, Alec purposefully walked back in the direction of his ship, wondering if anything else strange would happen this day. And how many more voices would appear in his head.
