Woowoo!  Chapter two! <giggles>

Who here is bored already? =^_^=

Small explanations.  We didn't mention Two-a's sex after the
steam..might still be female...might be different.  We don't know (yet).

Defense power.

The listing there is the comparison of the person's increase in attack
power when defending other people.

All the ratings on the board were each person related to the others.

Four-B is not female, and is not a destroyer.  That is the enemy. 
(four-b woke up last...all of it is chronological)

<smiles>  Any C&C that is longer than 10 lines can be posted to the
list...anything else (flames etc.) please should be sent directly to me.

My head still feels fuzzy.  Thoughs that don't feel like mine flow
around.  Who is Skye?  What is a Dragon?

I shrug, then look up at the technician...no..teacher.

"Each of you have been brought here from your own times, and worlds,
because yoru skills are needed here at this time"

Each of us.

There are seven of us, sitting in a half circle.  Me and my kitten.  A
boy with black hair, done in a ponytail, and a girl with blue hair.
(funny, the boy seems to have an image of a red haired girl transposed
over him).  A little girl with black hair, and strange markings on her
face...like those of teardrops.  (I feel something...different about
her....like an enormous power...)  An older woman, with long, tattered
white hair...(getting power feelings from her too...but
more...controlled.  refined.  Not anywhere near as much, too.) and a
young man, with shorter black hair. (linked to the woman somehow...can't
understand it)

And one smaller red haired girl....who acts like a woman.  (The energy I
feel from her is almost nothing...but I do sense a strong link from her
to the computers...and to the suit she has beside her....)

"Mew!" my kitten says to me.  Pay attention!

I look back at the teacher.  "The woman...creature...goddess you will be
fighting is stronger than any one thing you've fought before.  She has
the power to destroy entire galaxies...and to create them, as well. 
No-one knows her name...but we do know this."

He points to a picture on the wall.  Strange..I didn't see it there
before.  The picture is of a faceless woman...with two sides.  one
blacker than night (you can actually _see_ the pointer falling into the
inky blackness) one pure white (his pointer connects...about a foot away
from the picture.  curiouser and curiouser)

"If we can beat her in battle...legends say seven times...we can
convince her to use her power to create, rather than destroy.  If we do
win, then a new universe will be created, and their people will evolve
to the point we are at now.  if we lose...all civilization...everywhere
you know it...will disappear."

Wow, heavy consequences.

"as you are probably hungry, and dying to train to get better, we have
for you breakfast," large platters fill the table.  There's enough here
to feed an entire _city_ (for some reason..I doubt there'll be much left
after we're all done), "And we will escourt you to the various training
rooms when you are ready."

Everyone looks at the food.  then at each other.

"Dig in." the teacher says before disappearing.

.........

I was right about the food.  There's only one eggroll left...and that
ponytailed boy is about to eat it.
