Kaimei's snort said different. "What makes you think you know everything I can do by a simple glance, baka?" he said coldly. He felt an odd coolness seeming to move up his leg and glanced down before he heard a cracking pop and yelped in surprise as the tendrils of blue-black ooze melded with the silvery gray of the nanite armor before both began merging with his skin in a wave of heat. It swiftly overtook his body before forming and hardening almost instantaneously into armor that seemed oddly alive; the alien symbiont that had crept out of the wall had merged with the nanite armor, giving it some semblance of independent life, though the armor itself was now part of Kaimei. "If this vixen-girl you seek were here, do you really think she'd hole up with an orphaned shifter with gang affiliations? I kinda doubt it... last I saw her, she was stumbling toward the city," he said, his voice a low growl of irritation.

~~ Wolf blinked his eye, tilting his head to the side, while Leon looked confused in general. Of course, they both quickly recovered from this odd achievement Kaimei had just made, although looking a teensy bit uncertain now. "The cape's a bit much, don't you think?" He smirked.
See, the vixen girl would have walked back, except she would rather kick Wolf's a** and find out what happened to her friends rather then wait for some weirdo to get HIS a** kicked and have to face Wolf anyway. She appeared in the doorway, blaster aimed at Wolf.
Leon looked over at her. "My, aren't you a sight for sore eyes!" He gave a crazed laugh.
"Shut it, chameleon-boy. What did you do with Fox and the others?"
"The pup retreated, along with that clumsy toad and annoying bird. Not until after I knocked some sense into them, of course." ~~

Kaimei cocked his head as the cape retracted, seeming to melt into the shoulder plates of the armor. "I advise leaving while you can, before we have a little soccer match... with you two as the balls..." Kaimei said coolly. "You'd better hope you don't roll snake's eyes... because I'll make 'em black and blue," he muttered, a faint crackling the only sign something was happening as a three inch serrated blade of silver edged black steel hung down from the armor just below his right hand, connected by a barbed wire of black metal.

~~ "You two really need to consider what you are getting yourselves into." Wolf smirked. "Leon and I are perfectly energized and our guns are as well. Krystal, you can barely stand, let alone fight, and your blaster barely has any charge left. And all you have," He looked at Kaimei, "is some freakish armor. Not to mention that under the miraculous circumstances you could win, Fox is tracking my ship, and would assume you were with me, and kill you before taking Krystal." ~~

Lucy checked the long range scanners as they approached the 'Earthbound' system and frowned; she thought it was an idiotic name for the system. "Boys, you aren't going to like this... looks like Wolf and Leon are already on the planet and searching for Krystal," she reported to Fox and the others through the radios.
Kaimei rolled his eyes as the mask retracted, showing his vulpine face. Before he could speak a rumbling shook the entire cavern. He saw the front entrance collapse with a blast of dust as he reengaged the mask and spun, the blade retracting as he swept up Krystal quickly bridal style and darted down the tunnel to the caldera-hot spring, planning on using the thick steam as some cover, though he doubted it would last long. He knew it wasn't an earthquake and didn't like what he suspected it was as he slid to a stop on the damp stones. "Do you have medical gear with your ship?" he said, his voice a low growl through the mask. He sure as hell hoped she did, partly because his head was starting to pound again and partly because she could use it to heal herself.

~~ Krystal's eyes widened slightly as the cavern's entrance collapsed. Not realy having a choice, she didn't go against Kaimei carrying her. She looked over his shoulder, knowing Wolf and Leon were most likely right behind them, steam or not. "No, but I can see if I can contact my teammates with it." She said in reply to his question.
"Great." said Fox sarcastically.
"Our Airwings are too damaged to fly, so we'll have to go in with this ship." ~~

Lucy rolled her eyes, not liking the idea at all; from what the scans said, the technology on this world was nowhere near as advanced as what they had.
Kaimei sighed as he glanced at the changing building before he pushed off the ground, somewhat surprised when they reached the top of the eight foot natural wall surrounding the caldera, but not complaining as he landed in a crouch. "Somehow, I doubt that rumble was an earthquake... I'd wager it was something the Rashikage doesn't know about that blew up in someone's face," he muttered as he stood, then started loping down the steep incline, aiming to get to the city and her craft before the other two caught up to them. "It's obvious those two aren't friends of yours, and I doubt they'd want you for anything pleasant..." he said quietly, fairly sure the Storm Shadow gang he was part of would assist them; the Storm Shadow gang, though by what the police said was a gang, was more into technological experimentation and advancement than anything and he'd made damn sure they knew not to touch the craft beyond moving it out of the open.

~~ Krystal nodded. She didn't know what the "Rashikage" was, but really didn't care at the moment. And anyway, it wasn't her business. "No, they're not exactly on my good side. And their new habit of popping out of nowhere and attacking doesn't help. There's also a guy named Panther in it, but thank goodness he's not here." She explained.
"Attention passengers, we've successfully entered the Earthbound System." said Slippy over the announcers. "We will be entering Earth's atmosphere shortly. Please remain calm. This may be a bumpy ride, depending on the gravity level. Oh, and Fox, a message Peppy just sent said you'd better get your tail back in the infirmary or else. Thank you. Slippy out."
Falco looked at Fox. "You aren't going to return to the infirmary, are you?"
"Of course not." ~~

Lucy sighed; she was sure Fox would ignore her father's orders and keep going even injured, and they had little to no idea what sort of threats were planetside.
Kaimei shifted, his jog shifting into a smooth running motion. "Hopefully those idiots listened to me and didn't mess around with your ship, though being the head's second most trusted friend helps at times; the 'Rashikage' is the head of the group... the police say we're a 'dangerous gang', though we're more focused on coming up with technology that helps the people out, even if the police don't realize where their stunners came from," he said softly, explaining a little of how his life was at the moment. He could see the smoke rising from a couple of blocks roughly forty feet away from them as he ducked behind a tree, letting Krystal's feet touch the ground as he slammed a elbow into a switch, opening a hidden passage into an underground tunnel. "I doubt they'll be able to keep up with what's below," he said, angling his head slightly with a faint smile. She's a beautiful vixen, though she can be remarkably stubborn, he thought.

~~ Krystal nodded. "What are we waiting for? Wolf isn't exactly slow." She said, smiling slightly.
In a matter of a few minutes, the Great Fox was lowering into Earth's atmosphere.
Fox looked out the ship's window. "Hey, not a bad place when it comes to scenery." He said, grinning a bit. ~~

Lucy tilted her head as she too looked out at the planet designated 'Earth'. Interesting, she thought. Kaimei cocked an eyebrow. "Giving you a chance to manage on your own, not to mention my head feels like someone's pounding on the inside of it with a sledgehammer," he said idly, his tone faintly amused as he took a step, not bothering with the attached ladder as he landed with a crunch on the concrete floor before walking out of sight. He cocked his head as he glanced back after walking a few paces, waiting for the vixen. She'll likely gape at this little beauty, he thought. The 'beauty' in question was a car he'd modified personally with very advanced technology he'd personally came up with.

~Can you see all of me, walk into my mystery, step inside and hold on for dear life....~ "Good. I was just waiting for you to go, as all." Krystal used the ladder to get down, still not fully capable of doing her normal agility. She walked to where Kaimei was standing, and looked at the car. She raised her eyebrows. "Huh. Not bad, considering the technology avaliable to you right now." commented the vixen, going over to the car and examining it.
"Fox, there's a very, very faint signal from Krystal's Airwing." Falco said, looking at him.
Fox nodded.
"We are now at approxomately thirty feet in the air, and descending slowly. Please make your way to the exit bay, and I'll meet you there. Slippy out."
Falco and Fox did as the frog said. ~....Do you remember me, capture you or set you free, I am all of I am all of me~

Kaimei cocked his head. "Trust me, what this thing can do may surprise you, since I modified it myself," he said quietly. He flicked a switch as the doors opened, simultaneously sealing the hatch to the surface and hiding where they were completely. He heard a metallic creaking and turned to see what looked to be odd four foot tall spiders that were fully cybernetic and autonomous. His eyes narrowed when they released what he recognized to be stun rifles attached to arms. "What the hell is the security acting out for?" he muttered. He was somewhat surprised to hear the radio in the car crackle to life. "Security systems have been activated... system may be comprimised due to unknown virus," came the answer in a voice he recognized as Cammy's; she was just below him in rank and a technological genius. "Would Wolf use some sort of vius to evade detection before landing? If he did, then it's comprimised the security... and we'll have to get through it to get to your craft," he said quietly, sliding into the car and shifting to human, though he didn't necessarily have to.

~~ "I don't know. He did say Fox was tracking him." Krystal said, frowning. She slid into the passenger seat.
While this went on, Fox and Falco had been dropped from the ship, while Slippy stayed in it. After all, he was best at tech.
Fox glanced around, the device on his eye getting numbers on it. "Let's go. This way." He ran into the forest.
Falco nodded and hurried after him, catching up in no time. ~~

Kaimei shrugged. "Then we'll have to manage as well as we can without destroying them," he muttered, flicking the same switch he had before then flicking the red one next to it, simultaneously shutting the doors and activating the arc reactor as he heard the engine turn over with a low growling hum. He smiled faintly, flicking a bluish switch as panels opened just in front of the hood, revealing what seemed to be barrels with horizontal spines on either side that extended to the ends of the barrels like crescent moons. "Ion cannons designed to paralyze rather than stun... the impact acts like an electromagnetic pulse, which is perfect for our needs," he said quietly.
