~~ "Huh. Impressive." Krystal smiled slightly. "What are we waiting for? Let's go. Oh, and by the way, I haven't properly introduced myself. I'm Krystal." ~~

Kaimei smiled faintly. "Kaimei Rashiba's my name," he said quietly. He flicked the throttle, which looked more like it belonged in a fighter jet than a car. The car shot forward as he flicked the tops off the steering wheel, which had actually come from a plane but was modified specially for the car, to reveal two small buttons, one red, one gray. He brushed his thumbs over the gray buttons, firing darts that were effectively Tasers no longer than his thumb into several of the robots, disabling them and clearing a path for several yards before he fired the other projectiles, bolts of blue energy slamming into the robots and sending them tumbling as others began opening fire, attempting to disable the car even as the disabled robots spoiled the aim of the others firing.

~~ Krystal remained calm, even at these fast speeds and with the defensive systems attacking. She was used to it, really.
"Hey, Fox, c'mere."
"Find something?" asked Fox, walking over
"You could say that." Falco slammbed his elbow into a switch, not unlike Kaimei had. And thus, the passage was opened. He jumped down, and Fox followed. ~~

Kaimei's eyes narrowed fractionally as he shifted slightly in the seat. "I've told them we didn't need such strong defenses... oh well, no time to thin the herd like now," he muttered as he hit a switch, activating a very special weapon, though this one was designed not to disable, but to destroy. The sensors picked up two lifeforms behind them as he whipped the rear end around, the rear tail lights shifting lower to reveal twin ion cannons, these much stronger than the fore cannons; they fired twin bursts of ionized energy that vaporized nearly a dozen of the robots in a fireball as he swung the rear end around, slamming a quarterpanel into the side of one of the robots and sending it tumbling into others like a bowling ball. "Who'da thunk it? The defensive bots double as giant bowling balls," he muttered as he accelerated, curious about who would have noticed the camoflauged switch to access the tunnel. He blinked when he saw the humanoid falcon and fox. "Friends of yours?" he started but was startled when a massive steel door crashed down between them, forcing him to whip the rear end around again as he growled under his breath. "Damn you, Shiba," he muttered, recognizing the odd tri-bladed pinwheel logo; the guy never could resist the urge to 'mark' his creations.

~~ As soon as Krystal saw Fox and Falco, she pushed her door open and got out. Just in time to see a giant door crash down.
Falco pulled his massive plasma cannon off his back. "Let's get this party started." ~~

Kaimei cocked his head as he heard a low muffled hum as if something were powering up. "Krystal, I think we should back up about ten feet," he said blandly, tapping the screen and letting the car idle before he hit the trigger to activate its auto-drive system as he slid out of the car. He wasn't surprised to see it reverse directions and turn so it faced the disorganized robots before shooting forward to clear the path.

~~ Krystal nodded. She backed up a bit.
(WAit, so what's making the humming noise? :3) ~~

(Falco's cannon, though I do wonder if he's trying to overcompensate... lol)
Kaimei cocked his head as a single four inch wide point in the door started gleaming a bright reddish orange before a blast of smoke heralded a large round hole roughly three feet across. He unconsciously shifted to the vulpine form, reacting without thinking as he covered his mouth and nose with his forearm to keep the smoke out. "Doesn't your friend know the meaning of 'subtle'?" he muttered, his tone somewhere between amused and irritated.

~~ "I don't think he's fired yet." Krystal said, raising her eyebrows, coughing a bit, covering her mouth, crouching down.
"Locked and loaded." Falco said, smirking a bit. A large blast shot out of his cannon. Actually, this one was huger then the other, mysterious one. Just less smokey. It shot into the metal door, exploding whatever was inside. Of course, then he aimed it at Kaimei. "Hand over the vixen, and maybe you won't end up like that security robot." He said calmly. Fox also took out his blaster, pointing it at Kaimei as well. ~~

Kaimei rolled his eyes. "If it weren't for me, that 'Wolf O' Connell' moron would have her now, so don't point that thing at me, especially when I'm helping her get back to that spacecraft of hers... too bad some kind of virus is turning the security system against us," he said dryly, muttering the last part under his breath. He had a bad feeling those he was close to were in danger, though he couldn't put his finger on what was wrong.

~~ "Wolf?! Damn!" Fox ran over to Krystal, helping her stand(despite having one arm in a sling). "Are you okay, Krystal? Wolf didn't hurt you, did he?"
"No." Krystal shook her head. "The cavern Kaimei lives had it's entrance collapsed. The rest of it probably caved in, too."
"Kai...mei?" Fox blinked.
Krystal nodded towards Kaimei. "He helped me out."
Fox looked at Kaimei. "Thank you." He said, "I appreciate it."
"Yeah, well, now that your little reunion is over, can we leave?" Falco said impatiently, crossing his arms. ~~

Kaimei nodded as if it meant nothing. "Trust me, my life has been far from easy, and being able to shift between this vulpine form and my 'normal' human form ain't making it any easier," he said with a shrug. He shifted forms to prove his point, the dark reddish gold hair falling around his shoulders as he sighed. He concentrated, trying to dismiss the new armor. To his surprise, it immediately did so, shrinking into a bracelet with a dark gray-black stone in its center. His normal dark gold shirt and dark brown pants were wrinkled, but wearable. "I can't shake the feeling that something is very wrong..." he said softly. He heard a distant boom before he heard a tinny scream of surprise, apparently from either the fox guy's communicator or the falcon guy's communicator. Lucy unintentionally screamed in surprise when a laser cannon fired a blast into the hull, though the sheilds kept it from doing too much damage. She didn't realize she'd accidentally pressed the transmit button on Fox's and Falco's communicators so they heard her. "Someone is firing on the ship... it seems to be coming from a large warehouse roughly six hundred yards from your location," she reported quickly as the lights flickered momentarily as another blast slammed into the sheilds. Are those spiders? They're much larger than any I've seen, and spiders don't have plasma cannons on their forelegs.... she thought, seeing an unfamiliar symbol she didn't recognize that looked oddly like a fang of some sort. She was somewhat surprised to hear her father's voice sounding bothered. "Looks like someone is using the Venomian logo, though why, I am not sure," she heard his voice say into the radio, knowing Fox and Falco heard it as well. She didn't like the idea at all.

~~ (What's the Venornian?)
Falco, wearing a silver headset-like communicator on his head, adjusted the mic so it was near his mouth. He looked at Fox. "Peppy would kill us all if he knew you were up and about, so I'll handle this." He said, before talking to Lucy. "I'll be there in a second, Lucy." He turned and ran to the ladder. But he didn't use it. Instead, he jumped about thirty feet up to the entrance-exit, which was still open, landing outside.
Krystal looked at Fox. "Guess we both have to sit this one out." She said.
"Unfortunately, yes. But Falco can handle the situation, I'm sure."
"Considering the temporary leadership doesn't go to his head."
"Hmm....You have a point there." ~~

Kaimei rolled his eyes. "Then how about we do what we can to find out whoever's using the tech here to go after your friends?" he said idly as the modified car came shooting back down the passageway, skidding to a stop several feet behind him before its headlights flashed a few times rapidly, signaling the passage was clear unless whoever was screwing with the security decided to get creative. "The auto-drive system will get you two to the end of the passage, hopefully without any problems; the AI in it's a system that learns within certain limits to prevent it from going self sentient; as for me, I've been wanting to try out one of my newer creations for a while," he said, twisting the dark red-purple gemstone on the forearm bracer opposite the armor bracelet ninety degrees before it lit up in a deep red glow. A faint smile crossed his face as a hidden panel opened and a unusual looking bike shot out, a trail of rubber skidding on the concrete-steel floor of the passageway. Lucy heard a dull boom as something exploded on the outside of the ship and realized when the entire room tilted to a thirty degree angle it had been one of the stabilizers for the entire ship's hover system.(This is the Venomian)

~~ (Monkey people...interesting)
"You read my mind on the find out thing. But I have a pretty good idea...."He got into the drivers' seat, and Krystal into the passengers'.
Slippy ran in. "Woah!" He stumbled a bit as the ship tilted, losing his balance and rolling to the opposite side.
Falco ran out of the forest, into the field. He almost instantly saw the "spiders." Taking his massive plasma cannon off his back, he aimed at them and charged. In a few seconds, a large explosion of metal and dirt and debris erupted. ~~
