The next day after the couples had their fun at night after they split up and head to their rooms. Everyone was back at work on their projects. Pure called everyone together to a meeting to track progress.

Pure: Hey everyone, I've called this meeting together to track the progress of our projects. Ladies go first.

Alisha: We have taken down some of the hidden terrorist cells and sleeper agents around the world.

Horatio: Sleeper agents?

Carolina: Yeah, some of them were cemented in the police forces and some of the armies. They made arrests and sent some of the harder ones to break here so we can get more info.

Pure: What's the progress on that?

Alisha: Since Carolina is learning from me, our progress has doubled and we will be ready for the next batch when it gets here.

Pure: Good, next topic.

Horatio: The new line of drones and base are ready to be tested.

Pure: What are the drone names and class?

Jack: The Roamer is an all-round fighter. It's even in all categories but is the smallest in size.

Horatio: The Brick House is a juggernaut in defense but it sucks in speed but, it's super cannon asks any questions about attack.

Jack: The Reaper is an Air unit capable of taking down infantry and tanks but you would have to be lucky to take down a fast moving plane but it can take down a helicopter.

Horatio: The serpent is an infantry transport capable of getting through any terrain and temperature. It comes with a mounted gun, rockets and a detection system so any enemy gets near it gets spotted, even if you are using active camo.

Jack: There are other drones and weapon switch outs for each drone and vehicle since then can be either driven my computer or person. They are also easy to assemble and repair since we didn't want these units to be out of commission for too long

Horatio: But the best one of the new line is the command center for each squad.

Jack: The caterpillar. It is all terrain as well and can fly.

Alisha: It can fly!?

Jack: Yes, all drones and portable bases can hover for a certain amount of time using solar and a carbon dioxide engine but since we want the base to be hidden it can fly by using its tires to form wind blades and be silent.

Pure: Those will work great.

Horatio: We just need your approval to move it into testing and we need an AI to take charge of the drones.

Pure: Any takers?

Jade: I'll take the job.

Pure: Anyone object?

Everyone remains silent.

Pure: Ok, you got the job Jade. Next team.

Vincent: We have started making weapons and armor using human, cyber, demon and dragon together to create various weapons but they won't go over what you have made for us though.

Pure: What can I say, I know what each gun needs.

Vincent: But I looked over your past reports and saw that the dragon said that mixing the scales with the metals on this earth unlocks certain powers. So I began on a small scale to see what they were up to and be able to use them on missions.

Pure: What did you find?

Jade: Each metal reacts to the dragon scales and it gives a few of our abilities and some new ones to the table. For example, Iron gives the person extra defense from hard hitting rounds and with enough density, I could stop one of Alisha's sniper bullets.

Trinity: Steel gives the person extra strength, give the person the right density and they could lift up a tank.

Vincent: Titanium mixed with electricity actually alters gravity and can do serious damage to a person.

Pure: No live testing please.

Vincent: No only dummies were involved but there is a problem. The person has to wear shoes made with the dragon scales, silicon and rubber in order to not be affected by the gravity surge.

Pure: Don't burn out the dragon scales, we only have a limited supply.

Randal: Actually, that's not the case.

Pure: Go ahead.

Randal: When it gets to molting season Horatio, Jack, Xiao and Zhēnbǎo will shed their scales and grow new ones so you can use those molted scales to build more stuff.

Jack: And when is that?

Seth: I teamed up with Randal and your molting season will be in the spring time when you don't need the extra scales to keep warm.

Pure: And we are currently in fall right now so we got time.

Vincent: We have listed the metals and conditions in these reports for you to look over.

Randal: Oh, Pure your molting season is with theirs but since you don't know what your fur can do you might get the chance.

Pure: Got it. Next team.

Xiao: Zhēnbǎo and I have gone over the soil and water sampling when the squad came back and it yielded some interesting results. The soil has to be treated with a compound made of several compounds to neutralize radiation and red mercury.

Alisha: Red Mercury?

Lucinda: What is that?

Pure: One of the most powerful power source known to man, but it's very rare and very dangerous, even worse than radiation.

Xiao: I've compiled them together to create a map of where the compound has to be spread to.

Zhēnbǎo shows the map.

Alisha: Wait, that's the dead section of the US.

Pure: And where I was experimented on.

Xiao: Exactly. I found it dead smack where Alisha said the HQ of the base where she got her wound from. After she was medevac'd out to receive surgery and recover they activated a red mercury bomb so that it would be a hold the line tactic until they could get another chance to attack the US which ultimately they failed.

Pure: Then why were we not affected by it or at least pick it up on my sensors?

Xiao: Because it's dispersion area and time it had, it didn't affect anyone only plants and wildlife there. So they would be affected but not us.

Pure: How are you getting rid of it and the radiation?

Xiao: We are currently coordinating with local farms and police forces in those areas to help. They agreed to help us in exchange for some supplies and help rebuilding.

Pure: Then it is approved. Everyone wants to go back home to their place on this earth.

Xiao: Another thing we found is the water. It contains several new compound mixtures and contaminates that we have never seen yet. The best course of action is to isolate and contain them until we can find the solution.

Pure: Agreed, I don't want any of that interfering with the wildlife, any other developments?

Xiao: Still waiting on the results of the census but other than that, nothing.

Pure: Ok, next team.

Arachnid: The remaining UDI that have been captured are being used to rebuild the cities around the world, but the Presidents and Ministers are waiting for a response on what are you going to do about your family and their Fox Spirit forms.

Pure: They are too dangerous to be set free and too valuable to keep prisoner. They need a change of planet.

Arachnid: Planet!?

Alisha: What do you mean?

Pure: I'm talking about mars, the only place that they can't harm anyone.

Xiao: Well they have been making advances on people living on Mars, but how will they come into play?

Pure: Fox Spirits are free spirited like mine and Alisha so their instincts would kick in and make the planet more hospitable. We send them in a dome that will touchdown and be away from developments. There will be an electrical fence for their section of the planet preventing them from doing any damage. The wildlife, supplies and building we make for them will keep them locked to one place. The collars I have designed for them will allow them to go to their fox spirit forms but won't allow them to pass the fence or take it off.

Horatio: How?

Pure: Because you need me to do it. My radiation signature is the only thing that will unlock it.

Xiao: That will take a while though.

Pure: The sooner, the better. I will look over this project myself to make sure there is no loopholes in the wall.

Alisha: You sure about doing that to your family?

Pure: They deserve worse but I am not that kind of person.

Horatio: I see how we are going to get them there but how are we going to launch it?

Pure: All I need is three things.

Jack: Which is?

Pure: Plants, Cryogas and Nanites, trillions of Nanites.

Seth: Wait a minute, you are going to put them in cryogenic stasis, launch them, let them land on Mars, use the Nanites to build their home and then send the plants to build an atmosphere and let the Cryogas run out for them to be released and live there.

Pure: That is exactly the plan.

Mima: The Nanites will have to be sent first, then the plants then the people.

Pure: Seth, how soon can you replicate that much Nanites?

Seth: If you want it fast to check for errors you will need at least 10 tanker trucks worth of Nanites to do it. On top of that three months, four tops.

Pure: Get on it, next team.

Lucinda: The sanctuaries and reserves are letting the plants grow and reduce carbon dioxide in those areas. We are currently in recovery mode for the next few days.

Sandra: There are a lot of caves and ravines that remain unexplored along with a lot of minerals ready to be dug up but I'm not touching them until you say so.

Pure: Best to leave them until we really need them.

Artemis: The air is a lot cleaner from last time and is currently staying put.

Pure: Anything else?

Arachnid: Not from us.

Pure: Next team.

Randal: No red flags in the workforce but I am getting yellow flags.

Pure: What kind of yellow flags?

Randal: The minor stuff, which is why a drone is watching each of them but I am still watching the rest of them.

Pure: Check their Aliases too, I don't want any surprises.

Randal: Will run a second background check to be sure.

Pure: Next team.

Rick: We have tightened security some more with motion sensors and trackers in their badges.

Pure: Careful, someone can still have hacking skills and get into the mainframe.

Marshal: Which is why we have upgraded to the latest anti-hacking security systems and encryption thanks to Seth finally cracking that vault door encryption?

Seth: Yup, reverse engineered, added some new lines of code, triple firewalled and debugged. I installed it while you were sleeping. You now have multiple lines of defense in the fort and the cyber world.

Pure: Is it installed for everyone?

Seth: Treated it as an update to everyone. I have also improved Carolina's defense so that she won't be out.

Pure: Good, because my instincts say that I left out one person in the family but I can't remember who. Any other business we should discuss?

Alisha: Nothing here.

Horatio: All good here.

Vincent: All clear.

Xiao: nothing to report.

Seth: all checked out

Lucinda: We are good.

Sandra: Good.

Pure: Ok, meeting adjourned.

Everyone went back to their workstation. Alisha and Carolina pulled Pure aside about the missing family member.

Alisha: Pure, are you sure we haven't locked up all of them?

Pure: I had my suspicions when that AI was left at the particle accelerator to get backup and the data for the calculations were left in the recycle bin when they could have been permanently deleted and we would have lost.

Carolina: Which means someone is still in play.

Pure: They are most likely hidden where we can't find them.

Alisha: And you want us to see if he is somewhere in the fort or hidden somewhere in the world we can't reach.

Pure: Exactly, until we get him or her, this war is not over.

Carolina: Then we will have to dig deeper to find them.

Alisha: We will keep you posted.

Pure: Thanes you two.

Pure, Alisha and Carolina each shared a kiss and then they got back to work. Pure knew something was up and he did not like it one bit.
