Sisters in Arms

In the monster dimension, the whole team was keeping patrols of nearby cities and thief hiding spots. They were successful at capturing them. Elysium, Mekuboto, Troy, Avi and Kalon were coming back with prisoners in ropes with Mekuboto carrying their weapons and loot easily.

Troy: We're back.

Nick: Was wondering what was taking you guys so long.

Elysium: We ran into some thieves trying to rob one of the villages.

Rumi: I got them.

Rumi took the prisoners while Mekuboto put down their weapons and loot to get sorted out. After they were done a different team went out to return what they stole. Penny and Cinde went to return what they stole.

Jones: Getting the rust off?

Troy: Yes, good to be back in fighting condition.

Mekuboto shook off a little bit of water from her ice attacks.

Wilco: How has Mekuboto been?

Troy: Her and Elysium is a well-oiled machine, they even went solo on a hideout and came out with no damage.

Avi: Those two are insane if you ask me and that is coming from having my ass handed to them, separately. I don't even want to try them together.

Mekuboto went to Elysium and sat down on his lap, he petted her while he dried her off.

Nick: How nuts is it getting out there?

Kalon: It's slowly building, they are starting to get bolder now, even started to attack in daylight.

Nick: How is that network coming?

Elysium: Almost there. We sent messages to the wizards there and we have an idea of how it works. One person can see on a special map, with the technology side implemented you can see who is coming through and stop them in the process.

Kalon: Won't it be better if they were sent to prison?

Elysium: This is why there is an extra spot in the desert.

Nick: Raniya, she can take them.

Jessica: How is she by the way?

Elysium: She's happy there, she judges firm but fair from what I heard from the messages. The extra spot is a prison just for her so that she can judge them and give the right punishment. She even has all of the rap sheets to keep things fair.

Just then several people came to the team.

Person: Hello there, we are here for Captain Harley, we are her friends.

The people there were captains; there was a Lamia, Arachne, Wolf, Neko, Anaconda and a bear, they all had captain's clothing on and the captain's hat for old time sailors, it was a mixture of boys and girls in there.

Jones: You must be her squad she wants to put together.

Bear Captain: When we heard the alliance was solid and our girl Harley helped out, we were just waiting on the message to come together to create a fleet of ships.

Anaconda Captain: Where is our girl exactly?

Jones: In the normal dimension getting a new ship after her last one got almost demolished.

Arachne Captain: Then why am I sensing some marking from her on you?

The Arachne Captain pointed at Jones.

Jones: What do you mean by that?

Arachne Captain: When an Arachne captures a prey she likes she marks them with their webbing and that webbing has a scent that tells other Arachne to back off or else. That is what I smell from him.

Everyone turns to Jones.

Jones: I did get captured by her but she gave me an option to escape but... I didn't take it.

Arachne Captain: So that is why you have her scent, what made you her prey?

Jones: The liking of the sea.

Arachne Captain: Mhm, what weapon do you use.

Jones: Heavy blade?

Arachne Captain: Pay up.

All the other captains handed over some gold coins.

Arachne Captain: Told you she would take a guy with a big sword.

Nick: Anywho, what do we have to use?

Anaconda Captain: Our ships and various weapons and artifacts we thought might come in handy.

Jones: We have some here too.

The captains saw Mekuboto.

Anaconda Captain: Is that?

Mekuboto went to them on all fours and stood put.

Elysium: You can touch her; she likes a good head rub.

The Anaconda Captain came forward and rubbed Mekuboto's head gently.

Neko Captain: Is she the last of her kind?

Nick: No, her kind was just in hiding but, they don't want in on any of this.

The Wolf Captain came forward and touched her gently.

Wolf Captain: Who protects her?

Elysium: I do.

Elysium came forward with his six orbs, he came and petted her and she went on his back and latched onto him.

Neko Captain: That is one strong bond.

Kalon: It's unbreakable.

Just then a dragon came to them.

Dragon: Nick, we need some help in the mines.

Nick looks at the dragon.

Dragon: Wouldn't come and ask if we had it under control.

Nick: What is it?

Dragon: We are coming up empty on the new mine; need your metal finding to see if there is anything really there.

Nick reaches out and his pickaxe came flying into his hand.

Nick: Let's go.

Nick followed the dragon and they went to the mines.

Lamia Captain: Looks like this alliance is working much better than I originally thought.

Nico: You have no idea.

Jones: Come in; let's bring you up to speed on what is going on.

The Captains came in and they were being brought up on what is going on. While that was going on Nico saw Jessica go into her room and he saw her taunting him with her finger which meant to come. Nico complied and went into her room and saw her in her bed with her archer clothes off.

Nico came into the bed and wrapped her up after he took off his assassin clothes. Jessica rubbed his head and he was purring in her ear. Jessica liked it when he holds her.

Jessica: Mmm, thanks Nico, your purring in my ear soothes me after dealing with those thieves.

Nico: You also giving this kitty some tender loving care is nice.

Jessica: Speaking of tender care, what do you want to do when we get everything peaceful?

Nico: Most likely want to start a family, keep the peace, that sort of thing.

Jessica: Would you start a family with me?

Nico: Who else would I start one with, not everyone has the ability to catch a Neko much less have them purring.

Jessica: Hmm, what if I did this.

Jessica reached behind and was stroking his spine; he could feel it and was arching his back. Nico let go and Jess turned him over and started stroking his spine and tail. Soon enough Jessica was rubbing his chest and torso like she was playing with one big kitty and she was.

When she was finished with him he was completely mesmerized, Nico grabbed her and held her again and this time they were bundled up in a ball in with Jessica in the middle. He was purring loudly and she could hear how much he liked it. Jessica could not move and she didn't mind. Both of them just laid down in a ball and just got some rest.

Back with the others they were going through what was the plan.

Jones: Since thieves are trying to rise now since we got to fill that void. With what we know, almost all cities and villages are under watch but they will need extra support.

Wolf Captain: So what brings us here?

Jones: We should also not sort out the ones not just on land but at sea.

Neko Captain: The sirens.

Jones: We need to sort out where they are and how to take them out.

Anaconda Captain: Finding them is the easy part; it's attacking them that is the hard part. They have an underwater base deep in a crevice; a few mermaids warned us and pointed to the location so we could avoid it.

Elysium: Which is why we had to avoid this area and go around.

Bear Captain: Even if you get in they are deep down to the bottom of the ocean. You got an option to get down there to fight?

Jones: We do, the geodes.

Neko Captain: The what?

Jones: It's a type of ship that goes down to that depth and we can fight down there.

Ash: One problem, only the Extreme AIs can go to that depth, we can't go down.

Elysium: Then we get help from them and put a stop to them.

Arachne Captain: What about the land?

Jones: Hopefully what Captain Harley is bringing is more than enough to do what we need.

Just then a message came in.

Elysium: It's one of the wizards from the villages; they are ready to test the transport system.

Avi: Then let's start it up.

Elysium went over to a set of writing on a doorway, there were gems in it and a table was in front of it with a hologram of the world. Elysium said an enchantment and that made the writing and gems on the doorway started to glow and it reacted with a gem in the hologram. When Elysium was done the door remained glowing and a portal formed in the doorway. Elysium came back to the hologram and looked at it.

Elysium: Everything should be running just as planned, he should get the connection when...

Just then the hologram was giving off a pulsing light and the location was coming from the wolf village Nick and his team stopped at.

Jones: What is that?

Elysium: He is signaling to come through and he says it's safe.

Neko Captain: How do you know?

Elysium: We picked these crystals specifically to sense our heartbeats and there is a gem on us that no one knows about as a failsafe so that if someone is trying to make a portal wrongly will send them to Raniya until we sort them out.

Elysium tapped the blinking icon and the portals connected, Elysium grabbed an apple and took a small bite, he threw it in the portal and waited. The apple came out on the other side, completely intact.

The wizard took up the apple and threw it back through the portal. The apple came back through just as intact as it went through. The apple came out and everything was working.

Elysium: System is running, now we need to test if a person can come through.

Avi: I'll do it.

Jones: You sure?

Avi: Yes.

Avi went to the portal, took a breath and went through. She ended up exactly where the apple went.

Wizard: It works!

Avi: Now for the next part.

Avi jumps back through and ended back at Dragon Mountain.

Avi: Works like a charm.

Elysium: Now for the failsafe.

Elysium steps back away from the portal, they bring the prisoners from when they captured them from the villages to send to Raniya. Elysium backed up far enough for the gem he has for the failsafe to work.

Elysium: -from a distance- Try it now!

Jones: Go through.

The prisoners went through the portal and instead of going to the wizard, they went to Raniya, who was waiting for when it was Raniya's turn her doorway and writing lit up and a portal formed. The prisoners came through and ended up in front of Raniya.

Raniya: So what brings you all to be judged?

The prisoners see her bandages and sand going around her and they were scared out of their minds. A scroll dropped out and Raniya went to it and took it up. She opened it and it had their names and what they did. Raniya matched it up with the book of criminals she was given and they all check out.

Raniya: Looks like some boys can't earn your living and rather take it from others.

Raniya grabbed a small scroll and wrote something on it and threw it through the portal. The scroll went through and it dropped out and rolled to Elysium, he picked it up and read it.

Elysium: They got through ok and they check out, keep it up.

Jones: Travel system online, we can now get to villages and cities to assist better but we shouldn't neglect the roads.

Troy: The satellite will provide visual and we can get there the closest.

Just then Nick came back.

Nick: That's good.

Nick was dusting dirt off of himself.

Razor: Found more?

Nick: Two more veins, check the other pathways, make sure everything is working.

Everyone split up from there and went their separate ways. All of the captains saw them go of in pairs like they were couples. The Arachne Captain went to Jones to get some answers.

Arachne Captain: Hey.

Jones turns around to the Arachne Captain.

Arachne Captain: Is everyone in a relationship here in this alliance?

Jones: Those relationships have been there before the alliance has been solid, some... chemistry between them got them together and we don't impair them at all, we just make sure protecting the people comes first.

Arachne Captain: What is that on your neck?

The Arachne Captain meant his dog tags.

Jones: We call these dog tags, they signify our tie to the alliance, Pure gave them to us.

Arachne Captain: Pure, I have heard a lot of him, is he as everyone says, a good fox spirit and the most powerful?

Jones: All of it is true and he is kind person, he helped us get rid of the threat here which was, those put together monsters you have been seeing. Some may have been lingering doing their own thing.

Arachne Captain: So, how did you get into Harley's web?

Jones: It was the love of the sea, the first time I went into the sea and didn't short out?

Arachne Captain: Short out?

Jones: Oh, I'm an AI; I got humanized when I stopped the threat so I can live a life like you all.

Arachne Captain: So how do you know which is which exactly?

Jones sees someone passing by.

Jones: See the metal on her skin, that's called an Exo-suit, it helps with weight and mobility to do some of the things you can do.

Arachne Captain: Like?

Jones: Wait for it.

They watched the person and they needed to wall run to get up to their spot. She got a running start and wall ran up to a hole where she climbed in easily and was completely fine.

Arachne Captain: And you can do that?

Jones: I have one inside me that provides the same thing.

Arachne Captain: So what would happen to me if I wore one?

Jones: It would let you get carry around way more weight at least.

Arachne Captain: Hmm, what are you going to do now?

Jones: Wait for my turn on the next patrol.

Jones heads to his home there and there was a spider web there he climbed up on, he grabbed his Dragon's tooth sword and got some whetstone to sharpen the blade. The Arachne Captain peeked in and saw him sharpening it. Jones was thinking of Captain Harley while he was sharpening it and what they had together when they were wrapped up together in her webbing.

After Jones tended to his weapon, he climbed up further into the web and laid down on it comfortably. With his training from Captain Harley, he had no problem sleeping in the web and she realized that. She left him alone and went back to the other captains.

Arachne Captain: What are you boys and girls up to now?

Neko Captain: Finding out where we will be staying for the next couple days so that Harley can come back. What's on your mind?

Arachne Captain: About this alliance, is it ok for this to go through?

Bear Captain: They proved themselves when they stopped those things from attacking people.

Neko Captain: Besides, it might give us an edge we couldn't before.

Wolf Captain: Even against the Sirens.

Arachne Captain: Good point, but actually starting a relationship?

Lamia Captain: Don't forget, we heard about hybrid children as well.

Arachne Captain: What I'm asking about is that part true.

They heard a whistle and it was Razor, he turned on a hologram and threw it to the Arachne Captain, she caught it and it showed the hybrid children together with their combined abilities.

Arachne Captain: So it is true, the hybrid kids are real.

Neko Captain: They are so beautiful.

The Arachne Captain threw back the hologram and Razor used his Dragon Cape Hands to catch it and turn it off. He walked away. Now that Harley's Squad was on board, all that was left is for her to come back.
