"...Oh," Lucas said, before going silent as they walked back to the room.

I can't believe Mia would say that, though. As if we'd forget what her father did to her, what he did to the Carol and her sisters. But we don't have the privilege of holding a grudge right now, not while there's someone worse trying to destroy them.

The 28th

"N-No to both" The fox quietly replied, she did indeed not look to be in any pain, but her voice was much weaker then normal, and well... after what just happened.

Living Room

"It's safe to move her onto the sofa now. Or better yet, to the infirmary," said Ai. She stood up to free space on the sofa. "You just had a seizure. Wasn't enough to put you in a coma like the others, though."

Ai sat on the armrest of the sofa and sipped her tea.

"Wonder what they're talking about at that meeting. Anyone wanna eavesdrop?" she said.

Apparently, Ai didn't learn her lesson last time.

Hope

"We'll get that SOB. I promise you that much." The gray-hair adressed Imuka and Belle, nodding. Perhaps a bit of an empty word, but Hope wanted to give her teammates - the fox Faunus in particular - some reassurance.


It Sucks Being Alexandros' Underling Sometimes

Nadia kept quiet. Retorting that the fortress was, in fact, spotted and the fact itself ignored by her boss would have been inappropriate at the very least.

Arthur merely hung his head in shame before straightening himself up. "We are to assist personally in neutralization of Epsilon and any would-be ally of his." He said, running his working hand through the mess of his hair.

Helper

Stormer then looked at the weakened Imuka. She looked near completely drained by the attack. He turned to Belle and Yun.

"Is there anything I can do to help?", he asked them.

Dorm

"I'm sure the team leaders will tell us what happened, Ai." Alexia told her friend, the worried frown still on her face. The princess had opted to gently move Imuka onto a couch. She sat next to the girl, ready to help.

"Maybe you should call Nurse Troila, Sir Stormer..."


The Message

Epsilon grinned like a madman in the image. "And like every game, mine has rules. And if you don't play by my rules...well, I have a killswitch on me connected to every single product of the Weapon Project. And Max, I know what you're hiding under that expensive jacket of yours."

Epsilon laughed again, and Alexandros snorted in disgust.

"The objective is simple. Find me. I want you to try and track my signal. Max can provide the equipment, but the kids need to do all the work. If you even think of cheating...well, my finger might slip over the killswitch."

Another laugh. "You have until noon. Goodbye for now."

The message ended.

"Yeah. Bitch, isn't he?" snarled Alexandros.

To The Nurse

"On it, Alexia.", Stormer responded.

He quickly began to walk over to the nurse's office. The sooner, the better.

Yun gave Stormer a tired smile. "I don't have the strength stand yet, so...I'm good. Still, I appreciate the offer, Stormer."

Keeping the majority of his thoughts to himself for the time being, Glen said "Before we get goin', I haftae ask; you want him dead or alive?"

"What, a regular pacemaker was unsuitable for you, Master Of Olympos?" Rufus said, humor slipping into his voice. Yes, it amused him that Alexandros was just as vulnerable to Epsilon's madness as his own friends.

To Glenn he said, "It would be easier to simply exterminate him. It's always easier to destroy than to preserve."

Pius: Meeting with Ozpin

"Dead or alive, doesn’t matter right now," Pius said to his fellow team leaders. "We need to find him first, and we’ve only got until noon to do it. Brief the others on the situation; we need to attack this from every angle."

Now, why would Alexandros be concerned about Epsilon’s switch, anyway? Pius asked himself. What’s he got under his jacket? Deciding he would confirm his suspicions later, the Nobel stepped forward.

"So what equipment are you giving us to help track him?" He asked Alexandros with crossed arms.

After all, your life is probably in as much danger as the girls. Pius deduced. Otherwise, you’d have no reason to obey him and ask for our help.

"And another question: why is he telling us to help you?"

Meeting in Ozpin's Office

"Anything you need. I can have it shipped to Beacon in fifteen minutes. Just don't screw up." Alexandros said casually, with a hint of mockery.

He answered Glen. "Personally, I want the bastard alive so i can kill him myself."

"As for why he's making us work together...Because he finds it funny, the little bitch."

Ozpin spoke. "....I believe it is best for you to request the equipment you need, then return to the dorm. I...am sorry, but I cannot help you, according to the rules of this so-called game."


The Music Box

Alexia was crying. She looked at one of her dearest friends abd saw that his burden had been eased, if only for a little bit. How could she not cry?

She embraced her partner, and whispered: "Happy Midwinter, Pius."

Pius: Meeting

"Give us access to every satellite you have that can look down on Remnant and/or track devices, then," Pius requested.

"That should be a start. If there's anything you can do to make him think that there's another Weapon out there looking for him, do that for us. When he moves to shut it down, maybe we can track that." The Nobel turned to the others team leaders.

"Let's get back to the dorm," he said. "Everyone should know what's going on." Pius sent a Scroll message to his teammates informing them of the situation before he left Ozpin's office.


Pius: Midwinter Music

"You too, Alexia," Pius replied as he returned her embrace. "I think...I'll be alright today, without them." The Nobel let himself weep and breathe, a little happy to be alive for once.

Charisse flicked Ai's ear playfully.

"Oh shush. We'll find out eventually."

She seemed rather neutral at the moment, but she would never willingly choose to side with Alexandros. She'd rather just kill the man and be done with it.

28: Introduction of Sampi.

"Epsilon hit us with some kind of signal to shut down any system that uses Luna Tech." Yun sighed and rested his head against sofa, feeling drained, sore and stressed out at the fact that he was currently useless. "...Hey Imuka, Belle. I was thinking we could try fiddling with some Luna tech, see if we can reverse whatever Epsilon di..."

Yun trailed off mid-sentence, suddenly feeling lightheaded as he began to lose consciousness. The last thing he remembered before blacking out was hearing an exasperated sigh.

...can't be helped....I'll take the reins for a while...Father.

On the outside, Yun slumped against the sofa, before immediately sitting upright. Anyone looking at him would immediately notice a few things wrong with the bluenette: His left eye was glowing bright crimson instead of blue, and his expression was a touch more aggressive.

"Ah, fuck...Epsilon really did a number on Father's body." Not-Yun groaned, slowly shifting into a more comfortable position. He looked around, scanning the current occupants of the living room. Before anyone freaks out and starts getting trigger happy, Fa-I mean, your friend hasn't gone insane, and I'm not an enemy." he said.

Imuka does not look disturbed in the slightest by what is happening to Yun.

"W-Why would I freak out, you are just like Kasumi are you not?", she asks drawing a conclusion that this entity is the same as the AI that inhabits her cybernetics and drone control system. "K-Kasumi is much quieter though"

Not-Yun gave a small sigh of relief "Well, according to Father's memory files, many people in this dorm have been on edge. I didn't want to risk getting riddled with holes just because someone shot first and asked questions later." He explained. "As for what I am...it's a long story."

Meeting

"Done and done." said Alexandros without hesitating. "Go on now, do your jobs. If you're competent enough, anyway."


Dorm

Alexia frowned at Yun. She didn't doubt what the entity was saying, but she was worried about her friend.

"Is Sir Yun alright? You haven't hurt him, have you?" she asked, her voice hard.

At that moment, the door of the dorm opened, heralding the return of the team leaders.

"Well I guess that settles it then." Remus finally stated. "We have to work with Alexandros. But how do we know that even if we finish this little game of his, Epsilon won't flip the kill switch anyways? For all we know this may end up with us on a wild goose chase for this twisted fucks amusement while we chase signals that lead to nowhere."

"Well, I'd suggest perhaps having others check the periphery would not be breaking his rules, not if he's also betraying one of the premises of his game," Rufus rumbled, "But that's hardly guaranteed. We've no idea what he'll do, how deeply his madness runs and how much he may actually back up his threats. All he may be able to do is spy on us and send disturbing messages.

"Speaking of which, if you'll excuse me, I must see to my second," Rufus said, waving them off and making his way at a quick trot to where they took Yun.

Not-Yun rolled his eyes. "See, this was more along the lines of how I thought folks would react." he deadpanned to Imuka, before answering Alexia "Relax, Princess. Father's simply resting now. His physical exhaustion coupled with his mental stress kicked me into the driver's seat, as you would call it. I'll return control once he's sufficiently recovered."

Hearing the return of the team leaders, Not-Yun groaned, realizing that he would have to explain himself to everyone else. "Shit...guess the cat really is about to be let out of the bag..."

"Sophie's pregnant and you're the father," Rufus said without emotion as he walked. All he had heard before hand was the thing about the cat and the bag.

"Grogdamnit, I told you to use the box but no one listens to Rufus."

Not-Yun looked flatly at Rufus. "No, Father made good use of the protection you provided. I am...more of a brain-child."

"Maybe I should begin explaining. My designated name is Sampi, and I am the unknown result created from fragments of Beta-2's Weapon Girls programming, and Lei Yun's psyche." He began
