Nicole gazed down at the folder in her hand. The information about the terrible people causing all this trouble was written on the documents inside this file. She reached in and looked upon the title. "Information on R.E.A.P." R.E.A.P. apparently stood for Ripple Effect Anamatronic-like People. Nicole thought it must have taken forever to find a clever name for the acronym. She didn't know what the ripple effect was, but it was luckily the first thing on the page. In fact the first page was dedicated to decoding the acronym.

The Ripple Effect is defined as the harvesting of a person's spirit repeatedly in order to utilize it for other purposes. In other words no matter how many times a person who has ever been turned into an experiment by R.E.A.P. dies, their spirit will always be taken to a new body. This creates an imprisonment inside our world for whoever falls victim to this organization, and disallows them from passing on to the next life (see Experiment X-19 for more details on the next life.) The person's spirit will be recycled repetitively and will gain a new body every time, usually a cyborg one. The spirit will pass through their own body for a split second, and will be killed immediately upon gaining their old body back. This is usually done with DSF or Deadly Sound Frequency, a particular amount of hertz and decibelsof sound that cause the brain to shut down and the heart to go haywire.

That's absolutely horrible, Nicole thought to her. She glanced at Fur wondering how many times she had died now. She then realized this meant Ben hadn't died. Technically, he had just been turned into a cyborg once again. This was bittersweet. It was good to have their friend still alive, but for him to be an "anamatronic-like person" again, which she could only assume meant cyborg, wasn't such a good thing. Sure enough the next sentences touched upon this subject explaining that this was in fact a way of saying cyborg, while still fitting the acronym. They sure do like the name REAPNicole thought rolling her eyes. The next few pages showed some schematics of machines that they had developed that Nicole couldn't make heads or tails of. One was the DSF room though which she gazed at for a bit. Apparently the only material that survived this frequency was cheap glass. Weird...

R.E.A.P. has twelve known experiments at the moment. The two most recent have escaped captivity, but unfortunately one was murdered soon after. The death of the person known as Ben was caused by an assassin from R.E.A.P. known as Lio Warren. This person is known to have several mental disorders creating a thirst for blood and the need for the death of others around him. The other experiment, Squirrel, was supposed to be killed at this incident, but escaped unharmed. The rest of the experiments are at large, but have laid lower than the two escapees and have yet to be destroyed once. One experiment named Ichor has recently been seen at large and appears to be R.E.A.P.'s next terrorist. He seems to be trying to find and kill The Chosen Three (refer to data sample 74311-Z093.)

Nicole read this last sentence then closed the folder and gave it back to Leon.

"I don't think I need anymore knowledge from here." she said. The fact that she was being hunted right now was very unsettling.

"Did you read about the Ripple Effect and the experiment known as Ichor?" Leon said, "Those are the main points you need to know."

"Yes." Nicole said with a nod.

"Good." Leon said, "We have recently found another experiment tampering with satelliteswithin the Earth's orbit. This is making it very difficult to track Ichor. We need to go up there and stop whoever they are. I can only take three of you with me."

Squirrel shouted, "Me!" so fast it made Aidan's head spin, the next one say it. Squirrel needed some action.

"Okay I'll take you," he said pointing to Nicole, "Squirrel and Aidan. The rest of you will have to stay here."

"Oh it's okay, I'm a little tired of all this anyway." Courtney said, sitting on a white lounge chair. The room seemed to create furniture at will. Mr. Evil, Red, and Dragon sat too, talking about some real estate pyramid scheme.

"We'll see you soon," Nicole said to Courtney as they stepped into the elevator. They had assumed they would go down to some room with a space shuttle in it, but Leon suddenly pushed his hand onto the clear, left side of the elevator. A blue ripple radiated out from where he had pressed. Suddenly four advanced space suits seemed to appear on everyone in an instant.

"We use magnetic technology to make over one billion nanochips form a spacesuit in 41 milliseconds flat." Leon said. No one argued, they couldn't think of any other way it could happen. The invisible elevator continued to go up. Everything at C.E.A.R. seemed to be made in some dreamlike, imaginary world where anything was possible, because before all this, no one here except Leon would have thought this was possible. They suddenly went through the ozone layer and were now in the endless fathoms of space. Leon pressed more invisible buttons on the wall and the elevator started moving to what seemed to be left.

"This experiment has a strange energy level that leads me to believe they have a new weapon that we have never seen before, " Leon said. A satellite was coming into view. A strange silver being was flying around in many directions extremely fast, putting wires in different places.

"It's worse than I thought, they aren't destroying the satellites they are using them for their own use, " Leon said, showing concern in his face. Suddenly strange yellow gloves appeared on everyones' hands.

"These will help you control gravity," Leon stated simply. Then the elevator disappeared. It felt more like the floor had been taken out from under them, because the whole thing was invisible anyway. Everyone except Leon immediately hurtled toward the Earth.

"Point your palms up!" Leon shouted over everyones' screams. They all complied and soon were where Leon was, "Fists to stay where you are," They all clenched their hands. The silver being looked over. Long, wavy hair went down to the cyborg's thighs. It had high cheekbones, and was obviously a woman. It looked strangely calming, everyone lowered their guard. Suddenly the experiment flew straight at Nicole and shot a punch at a speed that threw Leon's sensors off. Nicole miraculously dodged, her quick reflexes really coming in handy. She reacted by uppercutting the cyborg to the face. This, unfortunately, did nothing but hurt Nicole's hand a lot. The cyborg was much too hard for a punch. Leon blasted it with a cannon. The experiment backed away slightly, but only looked mildly phazed. Aidan took out the sword that was still on the outside of his suit. This, however, opened his fists slightly, and his gravity went in every direction. He spun around several times until he finally got his hands back into fists. A sword would not be usable with these terribly designed gloves. There was no time for discussion about this however as the cyborg was glowing. It had turned strange color of deep purple, giving an eerie and mysterious feel. The cyborg did a couple of hand motions until she finally put her hands together. Then all hell broke loose.

It's good to be back. ;) Well I think that was a pretty interesting chapter. ...I wrote it though so...:P

Shoutout: Thanks Courtney for saving my sig from the depth's of Aidan's recycling big! :lol:
