((Nice.))
Mequidra moved into the shadow orb, and blinked slowly in the darkness. He felt his eyes become useless, and his psychic abilities become more prominant.
[glow=gold,2,300]"Intriguing. Once we are outside, it should not take more than a few minutes to establish the connection. The transmission should take little more than half an hour."[/glow]
The shapeshifter felt uncomfortably cold, but this was always true in any temperature in which water did not boil.

(peh)
Kruck stepped into the hole surrounded by blackness uncertainly. However, Mequidra had just gone in, which gave him back some confidence. Kruck opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.
Thats odd.....
He shrugged his shoulders, decidening he didn't care. He looked around expectantly, as if knowing something would soon happen.

((sorry it tok me so long))
Cethyn followed Kruck and Mequidra into the massive black orb slowly, cautiously. Once inside he twitched his antennae about, trying to sense what was within, but he could sense nothing. He reached up to adjust his goggles for a different form of light, and everything remained black. After several different tries with all the forms of light his gogles could detect, he still saw nothing but utter blackness.
As awed as a bug could be, Cethyn attempted to say 'interesting', but no sound came from either his natural voice or his translator. It was as if nothing existed but himself, in a small black corner of his mind. Had he been aught but an emotionless Cython, he might have been disturbed, might have shivered, but was instead merely curious.

The shapeshifter's psychic abilities granted him a limited form of sight, but only just.
[glow=gold,2,300]"I will be the only one who can communicate in this shroud. This is acceptable. DarkUmbra, take us up."[/glow]
He 'looked' around him, trying to determine where the shadow-man was.

[glow=gold,2,300]The let us depart. Mequidra, you must be my eyes, for at high speeds, my sonar doesn't funtion properly.[/glow]
DarkUmbra thought this to Mequidra, for he did not want the others taking knowledge in his flaws. He knew they didn't have long, and he was gonna pass out for sure, maybe die. No, he could not do that, he had promised Kathryn that he would never leave her. He emptied his mind of all emotion, good or bad, and opened a swirling torrent of shadows in the ceiling. He willed the orb through and they were outside. Not at all different to anyone with sight, completely different to him, and probably Mequidra.
[glow=purple,2,300]Now, where are we. . . Ahh! Going?[/glow]
DarkUmbra had no idea of the strain that this would put on his mind. However he was bearing it and he would make it.

Mequidra simply shrugged, though he knew the action could not be seen.
[glow=gold,2,300]"Here. We are high enough up to be out of disturbance areas."[/glow]
He held up his hand, and rapidly it began to morph into a satalite reciever. It grew, and soon outsized the shadows. Icicles grew over the dish, and pieces began to break and fall through the air. He closed his eyes, and felt a signal bounce out of it. He sat there, waiting for a response.
The minutes went by. The dish was crumbling rapidly, and Mequidra knew he would die from the cold rapidly. After nearly half an hour of waiting, he felt a response.
[glow=gold,2,300]"Mequidranata, your message has been recieved. Aghnaratu has deceaced, and you have been pronounced the new Arbiter. As such, your current mission is moot. Return to Brinpore as soon as the planet you are on has been cleaned."[/glow]
Mequidra pulled the disc back inside. Cleaned. He knew that Arbiters were incapable of converting creatures to shapeshifters, which was why he'd suspected a change in government. He also knew that 'cleaned' meant 'removal of all life in all of its varieties.' He'd been prepared for this.
[glow=gold,2,300]"DarkUmbra, I have heard what I needed to, and my mission is clear. Take us back inside."[/glow]
