"Thirteen?" Thorin asks. "Aren't you two a little... young to be going into battle? Also, there must be more to this story that you aren't telling me. I'm not your enemy, so there's no need to hide anything."
@Psyco:So I take it that you're waiting for Micool to get here as Isana?

@Ichigo: Just for Lucas and Claus, so it'll probably be a while before I get the chance to have them meet again.
Claus looks at Thorin.
"If you think thirteen is young, try nine, because that's when everything went to hell for us. Plus, you're not my enemy, but I don't trust anyone here either."
"Claus, please."
"What? I'm being nice right now. I said he isn't my enemy."

"You seem like the more reasonable one, so tell me the whole story of how you saved your brother and what Isana's exact words to you were."

At this point in time, a young girl entered the Arena, her frilly shirt shifting slightly as she walked. Bringing one hand up to gently muss her own hair, she gave a small pause. No, it was okay. She came here to keep other people from getting tricked by Kyubey. But doing such a thing wouldn't be easy, as she knew first hand. Maybe the group of men could help her..?
"Excuse me." She announced her presence.
You may call me Nyx."Uh... it's been some time, but I'll try to remember. Uh... I remember that I was really down and questioning a lot of things, especially about something that happened here, and Isana cheered me up by telling me to not worry about it, forget the past, try to make something of the future and stuff like that. It might not look like much, but those words really helped me out. As for how I infiltrated, I just pretended to be brainwashed as well. It did have some side effects as Porky liked to mechanize his forces."
His right arm turns into a cannon.
"So Claus and I kinda got changed into Chimera. But it's ok since we're free now."
Claus then smirks.
"World? What world? We have no more world to-"
Suddenly he sees the girl. In a flash he's standing in front of her with a warm smile.
"Hey there. Can I help you with something?", he asks. Lucas looks a bit shocked that Claus actually got up.

It's okay, Madoka... she told herself. "I'm looking for a small white alien- It looks a bit like a cat. Have any of you seen it?"
You may call me Nyx."I see," Thorin says to Lucas, still somewhat surprised that Claus and Lucas were forced to go into battle despite being younger than his nephews, Fili and Kili. "Well, if you're lucky, she'll come by here soon and if I see her, I'll let you know." He then notices Claus going right up to Madoka. "Is your brother always like that when it comes to girls?"
@Psyco:When did Lucas and Isana have this conversation, exactly? Was it before I joined the Arena?

"That might be it, but it didn't have a moustache.." She bowed her head respectfully. "But still, thank you very much!"
You may call me Nyx.Lucas looks at Thorin.
"Thanks.", he smiles. Then he looks back at Claus.
"This is the first time I've seen him act like that actually.", he says, a bit confused.
Claus bows back and smiles.
"No problem. It was here not too long ago, so maybe you'll still find it. Do you want me to help you?"
Lucas looks even more confused.
"He's offering his help by his own free will? ...I don't know what's going on here."
@Ichigo: Some months ago when Porky was the biggest threat of the Arena alongside Sombra, but the two didn't work together.

"I'm not sure if Claus would like that. While those parts were forced onto us by Porky, they do help out a lot in battles where psychic powers aren't very helpful. Plus, being able to turn my arm into a cannon is pretty cool."
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Ah, I'm Madoka! Madoka Kaname. It's nice to meet you-" she smiled, tilting her head to one side. "I heard it was coming here, so I had to make sure no one else contracted..."
You may call me Nyx."Claus isn't really selfish... he's just hard to convince him to do anything he doesn't want to do. He's kinda stubborn, and-"
He pauses.
"...Claus? Finding someone pretty?"
He childishly chuckles.
"And here he still chatisises me for letting myself get carried away when we met Nui and didn't know how evil she was, yet he's doing the same now."
Claus smiles.
"My name's Claus. So, eh... what is that thing actually? Because I don't get that contracting part at all."
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay."Well, it's your choice. I hate what I've become, a monstrosity of man and machine."
He grinds his teeth, knowing what it's like not to feel anything.
"Anyways, I've just got a call for me from command, so I'll be seeing you around. Goodbye!"
With that, he skates off, leaving a trail of flames behind.
Wes looks at Madoka when she mentioned the contract. He also remembers something else.
"I have to ask you this: Do you know that this place is a arena? The second question is that you didn't want that thing to make a contract? What will happen if a contract is made?" Wes asks Madoka.

She brushed her fingers over her soul gem. "...when you contract with him, yes he'll grant any one wish, but..." her breath caught in her throat as she tried to explain. "You won't be human anymore. Magical Girls- and boys- Have their souls taken out and put into these gems." She didn't remove her hand from her own. "If you don't purify them, you turn into the same monsters you were fighting."
You may call me Nyx."In our town there weren't a lot of girls our age. In fact, we only had one friend. His name's Fuel. So Claus never really found someone attractive at home. It's kinda funny to see him so different for once."
Claus pauses.
"...Ah... I'm kinda glad it ignored me now when I asked it something. I probably would have fallen for it..."

"We've been looking for a girl called Isana for a long time now, and he's a bit grumpy. Sorry if he insults you in any way, it's the tiredness talking."
Claus lays down on his back and begins to whistle a bit. If PATCH were to scan the twins, he'd detect mechanical parts in both Claus and Lucas.
Porky Chimerafied them both when he had Claus and Ninten brainwashed.
