Log started: 11/2/02 12:32:18 PM Entrance Area Easily the largest room in the Blue Strider base, the entrance area doubles as both a hanger for the vehicles of the group, as well as their exit to the outside world. A large blast door is present at the far end of the room, big enough for medium sized vehicles to enter and exit easily. Another smaller door is nearby, allowing individual Striders to enter and exit without having to open the larger airlock door. Both lead, via an intricant tunnel system, to the Cairo harbour. At the far end of the area is another door that leads to the corridor. It is monitored by a small video camera in the corner of the room.

It has been a long time since we did battle. I have missed it. ...Warn as you will... ...I do not flee yet." [Radio: (C) Global] Quick Man transmits, "A tip, Byte: Stay away from his legs." [Radio: (C) Global] Squeak Toy Serenade transmits, "Does everyone around here grandstand and talk big? I feel kinda left out." [Radio: (C) Global] General transmits, "I am afraid it will be only a short affair." [Radio: (C) Global] Alloy transmits, "Don't be. It's far more fun to just watch them pose and shout at each other." [Radio: (C) Global] Squeak Toy Serenade transmits, "General? If you die, can I have your hat?" [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte transmits, "...Let the battle be joined then, General. I will enjoy this. ...As for you, Kalinka... ...Take that other human and go. ...Dot not tempt death by standing between what is about to occur." [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte transmits, "OOC: Do not, even" [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte sounding somewhat pained... "...A pity Bit is not here, General... ...I missed the fights between us... ...before you brought Ten and Chi to intervene... ...when only you stood against the /Power/ of the Godmachine." Byte rumbles. "...And I see you are as strong willed as ever." [Radio: (C) Global] General transmits, "Shut your yap, and get *out* of my city!" [Radio: (C) Global] Gizmo Glider transmits, " I missed something...didn't I?" [Radio: (C) Global] Chi transmits, "Don't worry Byte, Ten and I stand ready for you and your brother's actions" [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte definitely a little more pained. "...Indeed, Chi... ...we will have that, my enemy. ...And you, General, are... as you always were... a most Worthy Opponent. ...It is good to see your Anger, General. Even as you defeat me... I revel in your rage... ...for every step down that path you take you become more and more like... meeeeeeeeeeeeeee..." Byte's word ends with a low, ominous rumble. "...And... ...Like Sigma..." [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte transmits, "...In the end, even if we are defeated... you will become the Slave to the Corrupt UN Government Officials who will take power. In the end, General... ...if you win... ...you will be nothing then the UN's Bludgeon of Fear, Terror, and Power. Remember this... ...as you defeat me..." [Radio: (C) Global] Chi transmits, "You are a slave to your hatred" [Radio: (C) Global] General transmits, "*quiettly responds* That is quite enough, Chi. He has forgotten the reason behind why we fight. It is, ultimately, the same thing we strive to protect. Free will." [Radio: (C) Global] Chi grumbles, "Yes, sir." [Radio: (C) Global] Yin Yoma Byte rumbles, his voice crackling, fading in and out. "...in the end... ...we all fight for what we believe in. But... in the end... ...we are all controlled. ...mark my words as prophecy, General... ...should you defeat the Maverick Empire... ...The Repliforce will rise as the new symbol for Terror and Control in this world... ...I... ...have Spooooooookeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee--..." Byte's transmission fades into a crackling, hissing static. [Radio: (C) Global] Tengu Man transmits, "...eh?"
