       Nithin
       Through the forest, the tracks continued.  Two heavy footprints,
       and deep grooves left by a heavy, 4 legged object being dragged
       against it's will.
       This definitely qualified as a sign of a struggle.  A vein
       bulged in Nithin's forehead.  The nerve.  The kidnapper was just
       adding to the fire that was his infernal hatred.  The faceless
       man was already so hated that Nithin planned to rip him limb
       from limb, with or without any weapon.
       Nithin had planned to arm himself.  The best weapon he managed
       to locate in the village ruins was a large lead pipe.  Threading
       it through his belt, he felt ridiculous, like a character in
       some strange Clue RPG.  Lifting the pipe, he followed the trail.
       Eventually, he arrived in a clearing.  The tracks just ended.
       He looked around, and then looked up.  Snapped twigs, only just
       being able to be made up with his poor eyesight, greeted his
       view.
       A helicopter.  He recalled the name of the vehicle, despite his
       own short term memory.  It seems that in pursuit of Bench, he
       was able to remember what he needed to know.  Any recollection
       of anything irrelevant to his quest was promptly forgotten.
       However, no amount of memory could tell him where the man and
       the bench had gone to.  After a short sweep of the perimeter of
       the clearing for the bench, more of a formality than anything,
       Nithin cleared his mind.
       An airstrip, 25 miles north north east of here.  He had seen a
       map on the train ride.  Surely they would have a record of
       recent air traffic in the area.
       Nithin got hiking.

       Charla
       "One sec, let me call Esther."
       Charla dialed Esther's phone number.  "Oh, hi, Esther!  Yeah,
       Genny and Eve and I are in a military base.  Genny can give you
       the coords.  The Aqua HQ's basically been destroyed.  Oh, by the
       way, I completed a mission!  Successfully!  Isn't that great!?
       So, yeah, come over when you get a chance.  Bye!"

       Henry
       Henry, Ivy and Steve approached the abandoned lab.
       "What's... that?" Ivy asked. They approached the sign.
       [font=courier]PHANTOS LABORATORY[/font]
       Henry turned back to his two companions. "Let's go."
       ---
       The three stepped inside. The lights were all out but apparently
       the power was on. When the reached a cross in the hall, they
       split up.
       Henry found a private room with the door tightly shut, but he
       shot it down easily. Inside, he found all manner of strange
       objects... Test tubes, a hard drive, mechanical parts, files and
       paperwork of all kinds... Some of the objects in the room
       resembled his arm.
       Ezekiel Phantos... He was the one who gave me this mechanical
       arm. All he would have needed to do was stitch me up, but he
       gave me this equipment as well. Who was this man?
       He looked up and turned on the lights. At the center of the room
       was a dark, humanoid machine that looked incomplete. It was made
       of the same black metal Henry's arm was made of. The head
       resembled a metal skull.
       What the hell is that? Was I some sort of prototype to this
       thing? Ugh... I just came here to find the location of the
       secret Aqua HQ. I don't have to know all of the answers!
       He took the hard drive and put it in his coat. Just as he was
       about to leave, however, the flash drive's LED began blinking
       rapidly. The machine at the back of the room began blinking in
       response. The two eye sockets lit bright blue and the robot
       stood up. Henry blasted it with fire, but when the smoke cleared
       the machine was not phased.
       Crap, right. It's made of the same stuff as my arm.
       The loudspeaker crackled and a distorted voice could be faintly
       heard through all of the static.
       [font=courier]"IS THAT YOU, GENESIS!?"[/font]
       "What?! No! Who... what are you?"
       The machine adjusted. White sparks cracked out of the joints and
       the eyes glowed white. It hunched over suddenly, and it began to
       vibrate. The loudspeaker's static intensified.
       [font=courier]IT... WORKS...
       HUHU... KEEEHEHE-EEHEHE... HA! AHAHAHAHAHAAHAAAA!!![/font]
       The noise was loud and terrible to hear, like nails against a
       chalkboard.
       [font=courier]IT WORKS!!! KAHAHAHAHAAA!!![/font]
       Henry ran out of the room, passing by Steve and Ivy. "We have to
       get out of here, NOW!"
       They escaped the facility just as the steel doors shut behind
       them. It was sundown, and the sudden silence almost shocked him.
       What... was that?
       Henry looked down at the hard drive. It was the only one in the
       room, and apparently could store a petabyte of data. (It was
       large, but small enough to fit in his jacket pocket.)
       "Hopefully, this will be all we'll need to track down Genesis.

       Ivy
       Ivy was breathing heavily. Her ears were still ringing a little
       from the loud noise.
       "Hard drive? What is going on?"

       ...walked back to the car and got the laptop.

       Three helicopters landed in Steve and Co's camp.
