The emerald tracker flashed as Zeta neared where the next emerald, the yellow emerald, resides. He remained stoic as he gazed at the massive, ruined airship, his red eyes looking serious and determined. This place, is one of the only specimens of advance technology that I have seen of advance technology on this pathetic planet. It looks like it is in ruins, but its best to be careful, who knows what kind of weapons and machines may still be active in there. Zeta thought to himself.
He opened up a small panel on his wrist armor to reveal a small keyboard and he quickly typed a command into it. After that, a strange "screen" that was thiner then paper and made of a strange, glowing red energy appeared before him. It has several floating panels, each made of the same foreign energy, and after inputting some commands into the computer through the touch screens, the face of what appeared to be some kind of droid appeared before him. " Zarith, I am at the location of the next emerald now, and I have a new ally, Ani. She is young, but she has considerable power, and she is agreed to help us gather the emeralds. Also, I would like a full report on Scourge, what he has been up to and if he has made any suspicious moves." Zarith looked at the girl in the distance, however, did not question Zeta, he knew that his superior was smart enough, and kind enough not to use a young child as a puppet. However, was still shocked by the fact that a girl such as her could have power that Zeta found useful.
" Yes sir, I am sending you the the report now. As for the girl, please, do not force her into any dangerous situations, she is only a child, sir." Zarith said to Zeta through the screen.
" Thank you, Zarith, and also, don't worry. I know not to put the girl into mortal danger. However, I am not afraid to let her get her hands dirty, she is after all, a very special girl, and her powers are of more use then you could imagine. " Zeta said to Zarith. After Zarith flashed off the screen, he turned to Ani and began to speak to her.
"Now, this is where you come in. I need you to help me move the metal plating of this ship so we can get inside, do you think you can do it?"

Anistasia, with her short legs had to run to catch up with Zeta once in awhile as they walked on. She was several yards behind already when she saw him stop and stare towards the ship. She gazed towards it to in slight aw, stopping to scan it with her hungry eyes. But then looked to see Zeta speaking, and some other voice greeting his. She began running again, until she was finnally beside him and looked up.
She had gotten there all the way as he let out the command in question. She nodded silently, her head turning back to the ruins. Her irises turned to a bright blue, the same blue glowing around her hands and cuffs as she held them up. Her arms seemed to quiver slightly as rusty iron and titanium groaned and creeked. She sqeeuzed her glowing eyes shut, trying to lift the peices off they were so heavy. With enough effort, five large plates of the ship fell to the ground with a crash.
"Er sorry." She murmured, ears ears laying flat as she winced when the ground shook, opening her eyes. "I'll try to be more quiet."
Holding her glowing blue hands, she began again. Straining under the weight and then another creak as bolts flew off a few more plates, disconnecte dit from the airship. Only this time, she grunted, holding them up in the air and setting them gently on the ground. they rustled on the rock and grime infested metals under them.
"Is that all Zeta?" She turned back to him, still full of energy as the blue glowing of her hands, cuffs, and eyes faded away slowly and her friendly greeting smile returned.

" No, thats just the start. Now, we have to find that emerald. I want you to go ahead and clear out all of the rubble and wreckage you find so we can get to the emerald easier. I will be close behind, looking for the stone and keeping an eye out for danger." Zeta said to Ani. He then turned to the emerald tracker and walked into the ship looking back at Ani and waiting for her to do her work.
(OOC: sorry about the short post, but not much to say at this point untill we get moving.)

Ani scurried behind quickly, trying to keep up with him as she walked beside him. Her hands up, both those and her eyes glowing their bluish again, she made a motino as if she were swimming with her arms swaying side ways. Immediatly, the rubble obeyed, scratching or screeching slightly against the rusted floors. Her ears twitched as she picked up sounds. The ceiling above them was collasping. She pushed her face and hands up quickly with a slight snarl, and hoisted it acrossed the room where it clashed with the other useless objects. Turning back infront of them continuing to walk with him.
She stiffed the air, she could smell leaking oil and mold everywhere. Scrunching her nose up at the musty odors she paid attentino her surroundings. There was a flight of mossy, metal stairs infront of them. It had three doors leading at the top. But she didn't continue up them. Her mind was having it's feelings again.
"Something bad 's gonna happen, my instincts say the emerald she be located that way." She pointed behind the stair case, where cob webs and rat holes lay, buried in more rubbish. She concentrated, and senting it out of their way carefully. Behind the trash heap, had been a trap door bolted shut and made of wood. But with a snap of her fingers, the whole door was snatched off and thrown aside.
She looked up Zeta, a more serious expression on her face now. It seemed much more alert then it had before.
"Somethin bad is gonna happen." She warned him again. "I dunno what, but be braced." She whispered, her large wolf ears perked up as she surveyed the area around them. Then waited to see if the emerald tracker said if she was right, that it lay in the trap doored scene.

As Ani moved the rubblel Zeta followed the emerald tracker, also watching her use her abilites, getting a feel for what she could do. This place though, was slight distrubing to him, and that was saying a lot seeing where he had been. The whole place, so dark, so forsaken was almost like what one would get if they mixed a graveyard with an abandon factory. This however, was not something that shook Zeta. He was a very intelligent individual, and he was one to follow his head more then his feelings. However, he also knew that there could be some danger in this place, so he watched the area around Ani and him closely. m
Then Ani's comment hit him. She could sense a sort of danger in this place. He had knew to be caucious, however, if she sensed something, then this could not be good. He instantly became ready, his eyes gaining that deadly look they have when he is scheming or ready for battle.
" Ok, I will be ready Ani." Zeta responded

"Someone else is here." She said it calmly, the way she always spoke, her ears no longer perked up.
She jumped down into the square hole where the trap door led. There was a 'shoop' sound as she let out an echo 'whoooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!' And was ingulfed by darkness.
Hitting rubble and hearing her back crack she laid on the pile of junk with a slight moan of discomfort.
"Eh, very unplesant. A slide that leads to - gah!" She sprang off the pile quickly, realising it was a large pile of diactivated robots. She looked up, hoping he would be able to fit through. It's not that he was bulk or fat, because he was the exact opposite. It just looked like you had to be a small ten year old to fit. And being as small as she was for her age she had managed.
She moved the large piled of junk and bot parts out of the way so he'd fall on unactivated cement bags instead the best she could do. She squinted her eyes, towards the next door way and saw something white move. It was a skeleton, immediatly her eyes widen as red glowing bat eyes, many pairs of them glowed behind it as the rustled with the skeleton.
Trying to clamber up the junk of the wall back up the vent shoot which she started slipping down again, desperate to get away from this ghastly place. She had never sene anything more horrible. As she started trying to run back up it, she had forgotten that Zeta should be sliding down it now.

All of the sudden, something strange happened. What appeared to be a rip in the fabric of space and time itself quickly opened up in the air, Zeta dropping out of it, landing in a crouched position with his head dropped down, and his arm extended down to let his hand help balance himself on the floor. He looked up and then got to his fee. Zeta went to grab Ani and had a look of slight concern on his face as he saved her. A rarity for somebody like him, who usually was cool and collected.
This place was to him, nothing but a boring scrap heap. He had no fear of darkness or corpses, as he had faced much worse on his travels for Megalith. Not to mention that his father was a much more horrifying thing then a old, rusty airship. However, to the girl, he knew this must have been a nightmare senior. However, he frankly could care less about how scared or upset she was, after all, the feelings of others do not rank high on his list of concerns. However, as a puppet, he knew that showing compassion was key to keeping her on his side, so he natural, acted slightly concerned when rescuing the girl.
" Are you alright, Ani? I can't have you hurting yourself before we get that emerald." Zeta said with concern in his voice.

" 'Eah, thanks." She managed to say as she was pulled down quickly, confused of how he had gotten down here so quickly.
The bats swarmed out of the room and up the chute as she covered her head, opening one eye and jumping back down when they had left. Quite repulsd, she shoed the skeleton aside with the end of her boot and put her mind back to the task at hand. She could feel it. They were close. She quickly raced into the next room, where she lifted a glowing blue hand and discarded scrap and robotic parts aside the room. Her heart pounded slightly, her eyes scanning the area she could read everything's past and function.
Something shiny, a goldish yellow caught her eye. Inside a bolted and chained crate beneath more skeletons, something seemed to glow. Since the skeletons had once been living she had to move them herself. She edged toward them and squeezed her eyes shut as the smell of death. She picked them up with her hands and threw them aside. It was as if they had tried to grab her as she did so which forced a chill to travel up her spine.
With a shudder she continued on. Putting both hands up, putting much strength into it as one bolt popped off at a time. Once the chains were down, and the bolts gone she stared towards the crack of light that glowed even brighter now. She stayed, standing and staring until Zeta walked into the room.

The emerald tracker went crazy. They where close, very close. As Zeta entered the room, he noticed the yellow gleam. That's it! Finally, we have it, now that just leaves four others to collect. Zeta thought to himself, pleased at the progress he was making with his new ally. He watched as Ani moved the skeletons away and dismantled the container that held the stone. His usual pleased smile, which looked slightly sinister, appering on his face as he watched.
When the work was done, he grabbed the emerald out of its prison and placed it in a strange looking, high tech canister. The, he opend another tear in space time, and placed the canister with the emerald held inside of it into the rift, and then shut the wormhole, sealing the emerald away. This dimension in reality was one of the many pocket dimensions Megalith uses for storage, however, Ani, being a young Mobian had no idea what Megalith even was, let alone it's wicked ways.
" There, the emeralds has been sent to another dimension where nobody can get it. That's one less of these things around to cause chaos and destruction. Good work, Ani, I could have not done it without you. " Zeta said to Ani. He the motioned for her to follow as he began to make his way out of this wretched place.

The entire ship creaked suddenly, and there was a loud rumbling noise from somewhere? Inside maybe? Outside of the ship? Who knows, the noise got louder the next time and it was closer, obviously inside the ship this time and very very close. A nearby wall ripped open, and a large piece of metal flew accross the area toward's Zeta.
((This is the intro, he'll show himself in the next post.))

"It's happening! The bad feeling is now! zeta!" She yowled as she leaped up, her hands inches from the metal as the glowing line around her hands, cuffs, and eyes sent it flying back to wherever it came from.
She looked around for the source, ready to fight. Throwing her neck side ways so that she heard a large crack her eyes darkened to a shade of bluish grey, as if a storm surged inside her.
"Come on out, don't be a coward. I can take you." She growled, making sure to show no fear to an opponent.
As the blue out line surrounde dher body completely, flickering like flames.( sry it sucks T_T )
