As his vision went black, a new picture started to appear. It almost looked like it was back home on Phobos. His house full of people. Everyone he had once known, alive again. "What is going on here? I though this place was destroyed?" Cel walked around and checked every room. His bedroom was clean with the bed made and ready for himself and maybe a lucky lady. Cel laughed to himself then sat on the bed. "It's been awhile since I've brought anyone back to this room. To busy nowadays. Thought Ursa would end up in here last time we finished a mission together." He looked around again then sat in his blue reading chair. "That would have made things weird between us. Plus I hate sleeping around now anyways. If I'm with someone I'm going to make it special."

Cel closed his eyes and took a deep breath in. The air was salty and the sounds around him changed. He was now sitting on a lawn chair on the beaches of earth. "How did I get here? What is happening?" Cel stood up, and watched as his feet sank into the sand a bit. The feeling was warm and grainy, but it still felt nice. He walked down to the water and waded around for a bit. The water was cold but refreshing. The air around wisped through his hair. Birds flew all over trying to dive and catch a fish or crabs. Out of the corner of his eye, Cel could see Ursa, Xael, and Orion playing in the water. They waved and beckoned him to come closer and play. "This is very strange. Am I dead?" He though to himself then started to make his way closer to the others. "Whatever it is, I think I like it here. No stress, no blown up world, no strange golden... think standing behind me."

Right as he was about to reach him, Cel could faintly hear someone's voice. "Cel?? Handsome?? If you wake up now I'll show ya my jugs??" Only someone like Ursa would say that to him, but it wasn't the Ursa that was standing in front of him. This voice came from the sky. "Ursa don't be so vulgar. I don't need to see your breasts." He thought for a bit about the voice. It was strange that it came from the sky. Was he asleep? He couldn't remember much that happened before waking up at his house.

In a quick flash though, the setting changed from the lovely beach to a desolated field. The grass and trees around him were on fire except fot one large one standing in the middle of the field. Standing right in front of it was the golden alien like creature he saw before. Cel took a fighting stance, ready to attack at any moment. "Who are you and what do you want!?" He yelled at the creature. It turned around and just looked at him blankly. In the fire light, Cel could see most of what this thing looked like. From head to toe the creature was covered in gold with the exception for a few spots that looked to have purple. On the shoulder, the creature had what looked to be metal wings coming from it.

The creature didn't move at all and just stared at Cel. He couldn't see any threat in it and started to walk closer. Still no movement as Cel approached slowly. As he got closer though, he could see a small engraving on the tree. The fire around them roared as he inched closer and closer to the tree. The golden creature turned as Cel passed it to look at the markings. "Golden Experience." Cel spoke the words slowly, hearing both words trying to understand them. "What the hell is Golden Experience?" He looked back up at the creature. "Is that what your name is? Golden Experience?" The creature shimmered as Cel spoke the words then disappeared quickly, only to reappear behind him. "What the..?" Cel was very confused but there was no time to think. An explosion went off right in front of them, and three even stranger creatures started running right at Cel.

In no time, Cel and taken stance, ready to fight to the death. The creature behind him took the same exact stance. This surprised him, but it didn't matter right now. The attackers were right ontop of them. Cel was ready to strike as the first monster lunged at him, but instead of Cel making the punch, Golden Experience struck first. "Muda!" It said as it landed the first punch, skyrocketing the monster 20ft in the air. There was a splat as it landed and the other two monsters cowered a bit. It wasn't long though before they started to charge. Golden experience took one of them and started to punch relentlessly. "Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda!" It said over and over again as it decimated the creature. The other came straight for Cel which he in turn punched as hard as he could. He landed a couple good hits before creature hightailed it out of there. The fire started to die down as the time passed by. Cel looked at his hands and they were covered in blood from the few hits he landed. He the looked up at Golden Experience and smiled. "So you're on my side then?" no response. "Well I can't keep calling you Golden Experience because that's uuuhhh, that's a mouth full. So I guess I can call you my stand? Since you know, you stand behind me? Fuck it I don't know we'll figure it out." As Cel was talking, another voice came from the sky. "Cel...? There's something we need to talk to you about. You should probably open your eyes..."

It sounded like Xael. The stand then disappeared into Cel and a flash of light happened.

Cel shot straight up with a gasp. Xael was standing next to him. He seemed to be in some sort of medical bay. "What the hell happened. My head is pounding." He looked around for Ursa, but she wasn't there. "I just had the strangest dream. You guys were there and then there was this golden creature.. I think I called it Golden Experience? I don't know it was strange." He looked at Xael who seemed to be confused. "Where's Ursa? I need to tell her something. Plus she owes me something as well."

Cel sat down behind Xael and ran his hand through his hair. It seemed like it was still turning black. He sighed then buckled in. "Don't worry about it. When I find out what's going on you'll be the first to know." He winked at her then tightened the belt, knowing how crazy Ursa would be driving. The cold embraced his arm again, slowly moving up his arm again, but stopping at his shoulder. "Just fuck off." He muttered to himself. Ursa started up the ship and started playing her music as they flew through the void, dodging everything that came at them. Seeing what Orion and Xael where doing, Cel got up when he had a moment to breath and took off for the lasers and shield. He heard Ursa call for him and Orion to hop on the laser. "I'm way ahead of you!" He hollered back.

Once he found the controls, Cel felt more comfortable. "Now this is what I like!" He pulled up the focus and started to aim. Blasting everything that came their way. One after another, ship by ship, he was hitting. The laser wasn't strong enough to destroy any of the ships, but it was enough to disable. Normally at this speed he would miss a few times, but each shot was hitting its mark. Almost as if something was guiding his hand. The cold creeped up his other arm again stopping at his shoulders.

Out of nowhere though, the stars started to shoot buy faster and faster. "They must have gotten the hyperdrive going. I should go check on the others again and make sure everyone's okay." Cel stood up and started to make his way back to the cockpit, but his legs started to give out on him. The shiver returned and the cold started to engulf his whole body again. "What.... is happening to me." he studdered then fell to his knees. He looked at his hands then at the glass in front of him. Though it wasn't much, he could see the reflection of himself and the gold figure behind him. It was taking more of a form. It looked humanoid but also Alien. Cel only caught a glimpse of the figure before the rest of his body gave out and fell to the floor. His vision blurred but before he passed out, he could see the faint figure of someone. Maybe someone real. "Damn it." Cel grunted before passing out.

Cel watched out the window as the scouting ships left the behemoth. If they found them, there would be some trouble seeing as the ship didn't have any defenses. "Whatever we do we need to figure it out quick. Those ships aren't going to just sit there and wait for us to make up our minds. As soon as possible we need to get those shields up for protection while we wait for the rest of the ship to boot up. Once we are capable of it too we need to get someone on the laser. It won't do anything to those ships, but it will scare them a bit to give us more time. Right now we have the element of surprise on our side. I know we're all a little shaken up from what we just saw, but we need to get our asses out of here. Orion, I need to you tell me everything you can about that monster out there..."

Right as Cel was about to say more, he started to feel an excruciating pain stab his head. The cold grip on his arm started to flow throughout his body which caused him to start shaking violently. The ship was already cold from the shut down, but this was like something he had never felt before. He could see the others looking at him in a concerned way. There was already to much going on for him to be getting sick now. Before any of them could say anything he turned around and left for the bathroom again. "If you'll excuse me. I need to deal with something." He said as he quickly fled the cockpit.

The chill in his body got worse as Cel was making his way to the bathroom. It was almost as if he was incased in ice then shoved into the depths of space. Once in the bathroom, Cel leaned over the toilet and vometed everywhere. This occurred three more times before he felt fine enough to stand up and clen himself off. He looked in the mirror and laughed a bit. "At least it didn't get in my hair." He ran his hands through the blond locks and noticed there were more black strands popping up. As he looked through more of his hair, he could see some of it change color. "What the fuck is going on with you?" He spoke quietly to himself. This was strange since this only ever happened when he felt stressed and even then it wasn't to this extent. As he looked closer, Cel could see a slight shimmer behind him in the mirror as if some one was using an invisibility mod. Cel spun around quickly and punched where the shimmer appeared, but nothing was there. Just air. He then turned back around to look in the mirror and the shimmer was still there.

Something slowly started to materialize into a gold like color behind him. It almost looked humanoid. This freaked out Cel and he quickly splashed hot water on his face. Instantly the freezing feeling stopped and the shimmer was gone. "Stupid nerves. Pull yourself together Cel." He slapped himself, flushed the toilet, then walked back to the cockpit. His hair still slowly turning black, but this was the least of his worries. If he was seeing things then there could be something major wrong with him. Either that or he was overly scared, which would just piss him off.

As Cel walked back into the cockpit, the others looked at him again. Ignoring their stares, Cel looked back outside to see what was happening. "So what's the plan then? Are we going to do what I said or do we have a better plan?"

Intergalactic Space Adventures --- ISA

As much as Cel knew the kind of pain Orion was feeling, he had a bit of a hard time feeling bad for him in this moment. The Behemoth in front of them was destroying everything in its path. It still shocked him that anyone could build something like this and he had seen some pretty scary shit in the past. In that moment though, Cel felt a cool brush of air behind him. He spun around to see if someone else was on the ship with them but nothing was there. He then felt pressure on his right arm but, same as before, no one was touching him. Cel shook his head. "Get a grip Cel. You've seen death before." He thought to himself thinking it was just nerves, but the feeling of someone being around him wouldn't go away. As he turned around to look back at the death machine, Phobos exploded into nothing. Ships where blowing up from the force and rubble of the now destroyed moon. Everything he had known and loved was gone.

Ursa had shut down the ship as Orion yelled. They were suspended in space, watching the carnage unfold around them. Cel had to look away. There was no hope for anyone else out there unless they got lucky like the four of them did. "Seeing as we're going to be stuck here for a while, we might as well get better acquainted." He mostly said that to get everyone's attention away from the horror outside. He looked at the new girl and shook her hand properly. "I'm Celebrimbor, but you can cal me Cel for short. Makes it easier." He smiled then kissed her hand. He already knew who Ursa was, given probably not aswell as he'd liked. She worked for him before and had a relatively good relationship with her, but there was probably a lot that he didn't know about her. As for Orion.... He didn't want to know him.

Cel winked at the girl before leaving to find a seat. ”Once we’re out of this mess I’ll clean you up and make that better. I’ll do my best to explain any questions you may have for me.” He smiled at her then left. In the next room he found a spot to sit and buckle up. Knowing Ursa, she was going to fly like crazy. He held on tight as She flew them out of Phobos and into the atmosphere. Hell still raining down On the ground below. Cel has been in some shit before but nothing like this. Who would go this far to find one person? Right now that didn’t matter. All he could think about was if anyone was going to make it and how he was going to threaten Orion. That man knew something and Celebrimbor knew that he did, otherwise there wouldn’t have been a bullet shot at him.

The craft tossed around as Ursa was dodging out of the way and with this, Cel’s hair got all messed up again. ”Why do I even try?” He groaned to himself as his hair waved around like crazy. “Maybe I’ll just chop it all off.” He thought to himself then instantly laughed “Yeah fuck that.” He laughed some more as the ship started to slow down as it reached space. Cel could hear Ursa’s what was that and came running. He didn’t even have to ask when he saw the massive ship raining hell on the planet. This was it, he had to have answers and now. Cel Spun around to find Orion and drag him to the cockpit. It didn’t take long for Cel long to find him, for he was basically where he was before. “You. Come with me now. He spoke deeply, sounding very irritated and pissed. He lead Orion to where Ursa was. “If you want to go any farther, you will explain to me what that is and why the hell it is after you.

Celebrimbor watched as his surroundings melted in chaos. Everyone was running in all directions, meteors crashing into everything. One man pushed Cel out of his way as he ran into the crowd then almost instantly splattered all over the pavement from getting hit by one of the smaller rocks flying through the sky. This new girl that Cel had pushed out of the way earlier was leading the other two to her ship apparently so he decided to follow. Ursa had hit someone and fell down to the ground. Cel was going to help her up but, she had picked herself up before he was able to reach her. People were dropping like flies all around him. The screams filled the air. Cel tried to contact some of the Yakuza members but with no luck. After not being able to reach Garth, Cel sent out a mass message to all surviving members while he was running.

"This is a message to all surviving members of the Strarvis family. If there's anyone left out there, vacate the planet immediately. If you are able to get off then meet at my ship the Star Platinum. I wish all of you luck and help anyone you can." There was more that he wanted to say but the adrenaline was pumping to fast. It wasn't long before the four of them reached the ship yard. A large ship with the name HMS Eternal on the side, rested on the runway. From the look of it the ship was impressive but, seeing as the world was ending, he also wanted to get his ship out of orbit.

Once they all boarded the ship, Orion plugged his mech into the ships database. This didn't really intrest Cel right now and so he just ignored him until Orion started yelling about no Hyperdrive. This information did shock Cel a bit but, he figured that must have a been an error. It was almost impossible for there to not be one. The mech must have had a malfunction or something. The girls started to get angry at Orion at this point too. Celebrimbor didn't want to listen to the bickering so he started to look around until he found the washroom in the ship. He closed the door then looked in the mirror. His hair was all kinds of messed up now with kind of annoyed him. Though something did catch his eye while he was looking. A long black strand of hair ran down the front of his face.

"Not now please. I still haven't mastered this power yet. Now would not be a good time to finish this transformation." He spoke to himself as if he was giving himself a pep talk. After a few seconds his hair went back to normal and Cel pulled out a brush from his jacket pocket and started to fix his hair. Once done, he walked back to find Ursa walking to the cockpit. He followed then sat in the copilot seat. "Hey if we get out of this alive I think we should threaten Orion for more money. This is bullshit and those meteors didn't seem normal. I think he knows more then he's letting on." He got up as the other girl walked in and gave her the seat. Before she sat down he grabbed her hand and bowed slightly. "I would like to formally apologize to you for throwing you out of my way. There's no excuse for doing that andI hope that you can forgive me." He stood up straight then saw the blood on her head. "I can fix that up for you if you would like. Make it just like new." He winked then started to walk off to find Orion. Before exiting the cockpit though, he turned around again to speak to Ursa. "Oh by the way, we need to stop by my ship. Some of the Yakuza might have made it there with some civilians and I want them to follow us in case of an attack. If Orion has an issue with it then he can find a new ride." He Looked at the new girl and nodded then left the room.

Celebrimbor listened to Orian knowing what Ursa’s abilities were. He smirked a bit to himself as Orion kept going. After a bit though he started to drone everything out and start to think about the plan. It shouldn’t be to hard of a job plus he could handle just about anything.

The beautiful girl he had saw before came up to there table with Ursa’s book. He could see her better now and she will as very attractive. This was short lived though. While Ursa and Orion where still in conversation, Cel felt a change in the atmosphere. The hairs on the back of his neck started to stand up. As this happened, everyone’s vidcoms started to light up. This isn’t even what his attention was on at this point. From a ways away, Cel could heat the cocking of a Bison Mk.8 auto rifle. Cel was unable to react in time before the shot went off. Ursa jumped to protect Orian and once she was moved, Cel took off in the direction of the shot accidentally pushing the other girl out of the way. Normally he would apologize to her and help her up but, there was no time for that now. Whoever shot at Orion needed to be caught and now.

Celebrimbor shoved past people and yelled at them to move before he was able to get out of the club. He could see where the person had shot from but, like he figured, the shooter wasn’t there. If he had the time he would be able to call up the family and have them run the stats on everyone who owned that type of rifle. This frustrated Cel but there was more important things going on right now. He rushed back into the club to find the others and see how Orion was doing. He probably wanted to leave as fast as possible now after this.

Celebrimbor ran his hands through his hair. Even though he was what most called a brute, he really liked to keep his appearance up nicely. Plus he was more then likely going to be the new head of the Yakuza so he almost had to look stunning. "I take pride in my hair you know that." He laughed a bit to himself. Ursa started to talk about her book, which seemed like a good read, but nothing that he would be into probably.

Ursa started to talk to him about the Draconians. He looked smirked at her remark about the stolen goods then laughed. "You sly dog. How on earth did you pull that off. Missing that amount of drugs would ruin them. Guess that's good for me." He took a sip of his newly brought drink. Ursa, though, continued and started to talk about the Italian Gragunds. A group that the Yakuza kind of just let to the side and din't worry about. Cel knew that they would rise up like this and that started to make him angry. The Yakuza were not an organization to mess with. Especially the Strokath family. They were a force to be reckoned with.

Before Cel could speek, his vidcom started to go off. This was a little strange because only a few people had his number and they were either dead, at the club next to him, or in the Yakuza. Cel picked up the vidcom and answered. "Garth, you better have a really good reason to be calling right now or I'm going to kick your ass."

The travel to club Cyanide took a little longer then expected. The town was busy as hell and everyone was trying to get somewhere. Once he finally arrived, Celebrimbor strolled into the bar ready to drink. It didn’t take long for him to realize that he missed a fight. Some marines where quickly making their way past everyone and out the door. They seemed a little roughed up but, nothing compared to what normally happens here. Before sitting down, Celebrimbor looked around to see what kind of people where around for the night. Many different races and species as per usual, nothing out of the ordinary. A few people did catch his eye though. One woman who was sitting in a corner booth Who he’d never seen before and then a man in a bomber jacket heading to a private room. This raised his brow a little. Only people who really go back there are usually about to make an illegal deal. Normally that would be his place to step in and lay down the law but, tonight the only law he was going to lay down was the shots.

Once done looking around, Celebrimbor found Ursa pretty fast. Wasn’t to hard to spot the woman when she dressed like an unfortunate soul. This made him laugh a little since he’s always offered to help her out though she keeps refusing him. Cel walked over and took a seat next to Ursa. Still running around in rags I see. Celebrimbor smirked then ordered the two of them some drinks. Hey I appreciate you coming out tonight with me. Putting our jobs aside, you’re one of the only friends I have outside of the Yakuza I can talk to. The waitress came back with the drinks. Three shots of the law, which contained 3 different types of alcohol, and One scotch on the rocks. An earth drink he discovered on a trip a few years back.

I’m sure you’re wondering why I called you out of the blue like that. Well... Cel slammed back his three shots and then the scotch. Astrik was murdered tonight by woman who clams he forced himself on her. It didn’t really surprise me all to much since he was hammered off his ass. I could smell it the moment I walked in. Well anyways, the rest of the family wants me to take over but I’m not to sure I’d want that position at all. If you recall, I told you once that I wanted to leave the family.

As the two of them where talking, a young drunk man walked over to the table and placed a gun down on it. Celebrimbor just looked up at the man, already unimpressed. Excuse me sir I’m trying to have a private conversation with my friend here.

The man just laughed and the club went silent. You Yakuza are always hogging the whores around here. How about giving this one up to one of us? The man slurred his words and turned towards his buddy’s and started to laugh with them. He obviously didn’t understand what it meant to talk down to a Yakuza like that. Especially one of Celebrimbors stature.

Look buddy I don’t want to cause a scene, so I’d appreciate it if you apologized to my friend here before things get ugly. He could see Ursa start to reach for her guns. Celebrimbor didn’t like guns all that much. To the Yakuza they were a cowards weapon. Fists or swords where more his style but could work with anything.

The man, though, just laughed harder with his buddy’s and took another drink. What’re you gonna do big ma... And before he could finish his sentence, Cel had punched him square in the jaw. Dropping the man to the floor. His friends quickly stood up ready to fight. Cel cracked his knuckles and stood up as well. This really isn’t the night you want to do this. I got this Ursa. You just enjoy your book. The men just growled at Cel then leapt right at him. There was four of them so nothing that would even break a sweat.

Cels first punch landed right in the gut then the other in another mans nose. A crack a could be heard from the second mans face. The third man made right swing for Cels face which Cel promptly stepped back for. He then pulled the third man close to him by the scruff of the neck, then slammed him into the ground. The fourth man cowered a bit as he watched his friends get pummelled in seconds. He then dropped to the ground and started to beg for forgiveness, apologizing for his other friends. Celebrimbor couldn’t stand this kind of shit in a fight. He proceeded to stomp the mans face in to the ground, knocking him out cold.

Apologies accepted. Celebrimbor smirked as he looked back up to the crowd. Everyone in the club stared at him, half in shock and half in awe. Celebrimbor just raised his eyebrow and spoke. Don’t fuck with the Yakuza. Get back to your drinks. Everyone turned around and started to chatter again as if nothing ad just happened. The bouncers came over and pulled the five men away, nodding at Celebrimbor as they left. Cel sat back down next to Ursa and ordered another drink. How’s the book?

The sound of pouring rain echoed through the dark room. The window slightly open letting a cool breeze blow through as the blinds tap against the glass. The room was filled with a desk and two chairs, both overturned as if a struggle had just happened. A man stood over a dead body that seemed to be freshly shot. A woman cowering in the corner of the room sobbed softly. The man looked over to the woman with a soft expression before kneeling down to examine the body. The bullet traveled straight through the heart and out the back end, lodging itself into the desk behind. The man on the floor was no other then the head of the Strokath family, a Strarvis Yakuza leader on Phobos. The man examining him was Celebrimbor Sasaki, the first lieutenant of the Strokath family.

What happened here? Celebrimbor finally said after a long silence between the two. The women didn't respond right away, just kept crying. Answer the question. Celebrimbor sharpened his tone a bit.

He.... He forced himself onto me. The woman whimpered. I pushed him away but, he just kept coming. He was very drunk. I called for help but no one came so, I took the gun out of my handbag and shot him. I didn't mean to kill him I just wanted to get away. She started to cry more, curling up even more into the corner fear in of Celebrimbor. A sigh left Celebrimbor's lips before getting up and walking over to the lady. He kneeled down in front of her and placed his white coat over top of her.

I'm not going to hurt you. Celebrimbor spoke softly to the shaking girl. Astrik wasn't a very good man to start off with and I'm sorry that you had to go through this. You're lucky that I'm the one who found you like this. If any of the other Yakuza members did, you would more then likely be dead right now.

The woman looked up to see the man talking to her. He had long blond hair with slightly pointed ears poking through. He was very pale and has a muscual physic to him. Why are you helping me? I just killed your boss. Celebrimbor helped the woman to her feet. Lets just say that Astrik had this coming to him. I may be a lieutenant but, I don't condone what he tried to do to you. As far as I'm concerned, he got what he deserved. Now keep my coat and leave this place as fast as you can. Don't stop to look at anyone or talk to anyone. Go home, pack up your stuff, and leave. Go to the downtown market and find yourself a way off this planet.

The woman just smiled at Celebrimbor and took off outside the door. Once he was gone, Celebrimbor looked down at the dead Astrik. Well old buddy. You really fucked up this time. He sighed then put on some gloves and picked up the body. A few other Yakuza members barged in after having heard the commotion from before. The gasped in shock as Celebrimbor walked past them, Astrik in hand. Get his bed ready and some fresh clothes. We're going to make it atleast look like he didn't just get murdered.

The two members just nodded and took off down the hall. Rounding the same corner was second lieutenant Garth. He stopped in his tracks as he watched Celebrimbor walk slowly down the hall. Cel, what happened here? Garth said as he started to walk with Celebrimbor. From what it looked like someone came in and shot Astrik through the heart. The chairs were overturned and I found the bullet lodged into his desk but, no one was around when I came in.

Garth just sighed as he took the body from Celebrimbor. This isn't good. If word gets out before we find who did this, there could be a war on our hands. As it is we're already having issues with the Draconians. Celebrimbor took off his gloves and tossed them aside. The two walked in silence until they reached Astriks bedroom. Some Yakuza members opened the door for the two of them and they both changed then placed the dead Astrik in his bed. Garth turned to Celebrimbor. I think you should take over for the time being. You're the only suitable person to do the job. Not to mention you pretty much were already doing the job of the Head as it was.

Celebrimbor just shook his head then turned around to leave. Now's not the time to discuss this. I'm leaving you to make sure everything is in order. I don't have time to deal with this right now. Garth nodded then directed some of the other members around. Where are you going to go?

Celebrimbor stopped at by the entrance. I'm going to head downtown to the bar. Going to meet a friend. He closed the door behind him then walked out of the building. The rain had finally settled and the air smelled fresh and clean. One of the only times it ever really did. Celebrimbor reached his hand into his pocket then pulled out a phone. He punched in the number then waited for a pickup. Hey, it's Cel. Want to meet up at the bar?.... Yeah sure I can wait. It'll take me an hour to get into town anyways.... No things are a little fucked right now. I'll tell you about it later.... Okay good luck. I'll see you soon Ursa.
