This Post Potentially Includes: NC-Aureal, Tuxedo Zorro, Sailor Snapdragon, Dief, Dionysus, Amara, Sailor D'ni (Shorah), RockmanX, Nic-chan, Insanity, Sailor Riven, Hotaru and Tara, Aphrodite, and SD-KM.

NC-Aureal sweatdropped. "That's fine, at least we caught up with them." Dionysus chuckled lightheartedly as he jumped off the monstrocity and went to collect the newbie and omnipotent runt. "How rude..." Shorah sighed, "Interrupting our party like that by running off and making us all worried." Dief gave her the exact same skeptical look Riven did. "Ok, so she worried -some- of us." Dionysus had finished lying Amara down on the Stolen Rei Wing and tossed SD-KM into the back even as he shouted "Hey! I'm not unconcious! I can walk ya know!" "So where are we heading to now?" RockmanX asked, apparently just along for the ride as he had nothing better to do. "The Oracle." SD-KM piped up quickly, "We're going there on some knowledge wisdom kick." He went on to explain to Insanity, Shorah, RockmanX, Nic-chan, Tara, Hotaru, Riven and Aphrodite what they were up to. Sailor Snapdragon and Dief listened in as well, having not yet completely figured out what the heck was on the go. "Hey Dionysus, you never did tell us why you were going to the oracle." TuxZorro said. "I want to ask it for guidance on what I should do next in the wars." Dionysus replied, "Most of the Minpire is currently inactive or scattered doing their own thing. Since I currently don't have a Nefarious Plan in mind, there's no reason together them together... yet." "So basically, you're just killing time because you're bored and have a mild form of writer's block." Insanity snickered from Aphrodite's body. "Bah! I plead the fifth!" "In a world of anarchy, that doesn't help you." Nic-chan sweatdropped, holding up a copy of the Otaku Times that hit RockmanX in the face a minute ago. "Yes well... NC-Aureal, step on it!" "Ah!" the hologram gasped in surprise as the Rei Wing shot forward suddenly. < Ok, we're going to the Oracle for real this time. - Scene Switch> 20 minutes later, the Rei Wing was embedded into the side of a large stone structure. "I think we're here." NC-Aureal said with swirly eyes, having been propelled into the wall of the structure head-first. "Why do you say that?" SD-KM asked. The NC-Being pointed at the big engraved sign above the door, 'The Oracle.' Below that sign, a 'Help Wanted' sign hung on the large wooden door. "Help wanted?" Sailor Snapdragon pikued, "What sorts of jobs would be available here?" "Currently, a replacement Aide for the Might all-knowing Oracle." A voice boomed. They all turned to a short, very fat old man with a plain brown robe that was so long that it scrapped along the floor. "What happened to the original Aide?" TuxZorro asked, somewhat disappointed as he had to ask the Oracle's Aide a few questions. "I'm afraid I had to remove him." The geyser replied, "He broke a few rules." "That's all well and good." Amara, who had recovered from her blackout, said, "But we're here to see the Oracle. May we enter?" "Did you make an appointment? I'm afraid only those with appointments are allowed in." The small army of Otaku Warriors facefaulted. "And -definitely- no senshi allowed." "What?!" Hotaru fumed, "Why can't I?!" "Because this is the Oracle of Otaku." The man replied sternly, "And SHE is no Otaku! I'm afraid you'll have to leave." "No way! We can't just abandon her out here." Tara complained. "I have an appointment." NC-Aureal replied confidently. "I believe you'll find it under Mistress Slayers." "Hmms..." he replied as he looked through a book, "Ah, here it is. Party of 14. Very well, you may enter." "When did you make an appointment?" Shorah whispered to NC-Aureal, "And how'd you know Insanity and Aphrodite would be joining us?" "I didn't make an appointment." NC-Aureal whispered back. "But you sai-" "Ssshh!" The group filed inside, although whether or not people stayed outside with Hotaru is unknown because the following scene switch didn't include quite everyone. Some took to exploring the place. < The Scene Switch From Hell. > "This is the oracle?" SD-KM pikued, "This hamster?!" The furry white hamster wiggled his nose up at the runt. "What's your problem runt?" It snickered, "HAven't you ever seen a knowitall Hamster before?" "..." Aphrodite voiced for everyone. "But we have enough time for chatter later, first we eat! I think supper will be served shortly." TBC? -- Dionysus
