April 22, 102 P.A. (still...)
After traveling with the caravan for a couple hours they arrive at a small village near the edge of the 5th & 6th ring. When they arrive they are greeted by Izo the same man that had lead the to the forward camp from the beach. Izo tells them, "We are safe here, please feel free to look around town. We need not worry of demon attacks this far into the 5th ring. We've taken the rings prior to this and have managed to drop the barriers along the way. So this is our land again!"
Runick and Kreesh set off looking for the old drunk bow maker, and the rest of the party looks for Hagi. After a short walk around town Takeo spots Hagi, he runs up Trevor, Oliver and Frank behind him. Hagi greets them and thanks them for their help in the battle, "Pitty we could hold just a little longer. Thanks with escorting the caravan back. You guys have grown stronger since I last saw you. You should join us, what happens here won't just effect these people. All of Japan, the World is in danger. There are some people I'd like you to meet, the Elders of the Resistance would very much like to speak with you... Come lets go feast at the bar then we can meet the Elders later tonight. They have called for a gathering."
Runick and Kreesh in the mean time had found the old drunk bow maker in the bar... duh. Runick buys the drunk a couple drinks and proceeds to question him on his bow making skills, and trying to imply that he needs a bow made. The bow maker tells repeatedly that the best archers make their own bows, especially if they were of something as valuable as a Millennium Tree branch. Runick asks the man for help making a bow. The bow maker agrees to allow Runick to use his tools and over look the creation of the bow if Runick agrees to set up his tent in town. Runick agrees to set up the tent. When he asks where the old man says, "Where else up against the side wall of the bar."
While in the bar Kreesh notices many people surging with magic energies, and many of them with weapons surging all the same. A humanoid man with pointy ears and gills catches Kreesh's eye, or more so the man's weapon does. A trident glowing with magic energy, naturally intrigued this underseas creature. For this is weapon of underseas origins, and a rare one at that. Kreesh introduces himself to the man and reveals his dolphin form. The man invites Kreesh to sit down, "I am Nymar, 'tis good to meet someone from underseas. I don't often come across others like us. Have you join the resistance as well?.. No? Well you should... Me? I left home many years ago in search of those that captured my wife, family and slaughtered my village. Only with this (holds up staff). A magic trident inherited from my father, as he inherited from his and so on. I have had many great adventures and made many great friends, but alas when I finally caught up with the vermin my wife and family were already dead. My friends and I laid waste to them all, but in the end it brought no comfort. So I set out to help all those I could, and now I find my self a part of this resistance against a rising demon threat." Kressh and Nymar talks for awhile, and Nymar tells Kreesh all about what has been happening with the missing Emperor and the demon that is posing as the Emperor. Kreesh tells Nymar how he has agreed to join the cause and defeat the demon fake, then search for the true Emperor with his recently made friends.
Runick and Kreesh set off looking for the old drunk bow maker, and the rest of the party looks for Hagi. After a short walk around town Takeo spots Hagi, he runs up Trevor, Oliver and Frank behind him.

Later that night the party meet up in the center of town for the meeting that the Elders have called for. When they arrive Hagi makes a grand speech and introduces the party as great adventures with great power. The Elder greet each of the party members and they make a little speech about the land and how things have come to be, then they explain the resistance is made of militia common folk. The Elders then publicly ask the party for their help. The party agrees to fight with the resistance. The Elders thank the party members and declare this the day the tide changes. A party ensues and they spend the night drinking and dancing around the fire to the rhythm of beating drums.

In the morning the party heads to meet with the Elders. They begin to discuss the terms of there help. "We are prepared to make each of you a Captain in our Resistance. You will each receive Captain's pay as long as you are a part of the resistance. And of course you will have the authority that comes with such a position. The Leader of the Resistance is your friend Hagi, He has managed to gather the people and inspire them like no other could. And his vast wealth and connections have kept us going this far. But there is only so much untrained farmers can do. Do you accept?" The party accepts.
"Well in that case we would like to introduce you to a man that has been crucial in our success. Without him I doubt we would ever have gotten past the 8th ring barrier. They say he appeared out of nowhere 3 months before the 9th barrier ring fell, he predicted that the 9th barrier ring would fall. He spoke of a small group on a pilgrimage to the Millennium Tree, he claimed they would destroy the barriers along their way and that nothing would stop them. But no other barriers fell after the 9th. So he lead the first assault through the 8th barrier and then we fought one by one all the way to the 5th ring. For what he can do is truly amazing... He can negate magic. May I introduce General M.C. Hammer."
M.C. Hammer walks into the room, immediately Takeo, Trevor and M.C. Hammer greet each other. The Elders are surprised to find out that they were the people that M.C. Hammer spoke of. The Elders are truly impressed now and begin to believe that perhaps with such praise from both Hagi and M.C. Hammer maybe the party is strong enough to defeat the rising evil. As M.C. Hammer gets closer Kreesh reverts to his natural dolphin form, the magic pearls don't work. M.C. Hammer questions Kreesh, they talk of Keesh's mission and magic creatures. M.C. Hammer begins talking about some of the things he has seen in his travels around the world and through Japan. He talks of the horrors that magic creatures often endure, and that he has seen others like Kreesh beaten and enslaved. The entire time M.C. Hammer is talking to Kreesh he refers to the victims of what he's seen as magic bitches.
Although he is informing them of the slaves and offering to lead a rescue party when they have more time, his extremely vulgar language is misinterpreted by Runick. Thinking that magic creatures are being insulted and tortured for fun, Runick makes a stand and begins to argue with M.C. Hammer. Despite the efforts of the everyone to clam the two down Runick draws his bow on M.C. Hammer and attempts to shoot an arrow over his head to intimidate him. With the magic energy in the room being disrupted Runick, being a creature of magic, feels a little off. He strikes M.C. Hammer directly in the shoulder with an arrow. In the blink of an eye M.C. Hammer quick draws his sawed off shotgun and fires it one handed (ability), blowing a hole right through Runick's armor. Before Runick could react a magic barrier surrounds each of them. The Elders scold Runick for taking action against a General of the Resistance. They remind both of them that they fight for the same thing and that although M.C. Hammer is vulgar he is a good man that fights for right. The two calm down and are released. Hagi and the Elders then lay out the 3 most important things needed for the success of the Resistance's revolution. Pick up, secure and bring back a shipment of tech gear and weapons from Kure in the Republic of Japan, Find and bring back a Master Techno Wizard from Takamatsu City on Shikoku Island, Find a Master Sorcerer from the 2nd Ring.
The party decide to begin with the tech shipment in Kure. Now that the Magic barriers are from the 5th-8th ring have been dropped by the Resistance they are free to travel out of the New Empire. Along the way the party pass though Ulo Town, Frank stops to check on his CS issued APC and sends in his 1st report in months. Frank reports that he has found Trevor the Psi-Tech, that he has run into trouble with demons here in Japan, that he is traveling with others and helping Trevor do something and headed back, and offers to establish an outpost here in Japan for the CS. Having retrieved his vehicle Frank is able to drive the party much faster than they could hike. They drive to Kure and meet with their contact.They pick up a train of truck trailers loaded with equipment and weapons. They begin driving back to the New Empire, just outside of Kure they are ambushed by a group with a couple of Big Bear robots and laser rifles. Trevor immediately uses his Psi-Tech abilities and takes control of one of the Big Bear robots and they easily defeat the merc bandits. Trevor opens the hatch on the Big Bear and Frank uses telekinesis to throw the men from the robot. On top of stealing a Big Bear robot Trevor scavenges one GPS system from the wrecked Big Bear robot and one GPS system from the vehicle the bandits had. The party continues on its way to the 5th ring town. A magic pigeon comes flying up to Takeo and disperses, they hear the voice of Shonen, "Takeo, Things here have taken a turn for the worse, things are not good. I do what I can but the evil here is too great. I fear we will not last much longer the demon activity here grows, they are up to something. We could use you guys, Please help brother."
"Well in that case we would like to introduce you to a man that has been crucial in our success. Without him I doubt we would ever have gotten past the 8th ring barrier.

They arrive back at the village and Takeo tells them of the message from Shonen. The Elders seem deeply concerned but they explain that they don't stand a chance if they move in right now. The Tech shipment was a huge step in the right direction, but it's not enough. Takeo wants to fight his way to Shonen now, the party talks him in to resting. Then into going on the quest to find the Techno Wizard Izen in Takamatsu City first, since that's what would help the Resistance. Frank offers to drive the party across the sea to Shikoku Island, Takeo, Trevor and Keesh strongly discourages against that, having seen some of the horrors of the sea. Frank disregards them and does it anyway.
Along the way a leviathan pops up out of the water like a shark torpedoing a seal. Frank manages to barely miss being swallowed. The party unaware as to what happened complain about the turbulence. They continue to the last know address of Izen. When they arrive they go up the stairs and when they get to the door it is unlocked. They go in, they don't see anything, at first. When M.C. Hammer walks in two ninja-borgs and two cyber-samurai become visible, one in each corner. They fight, the two cyber-samurai are defeated. With his last action one of the drops a blinding flash grenade, and the two ninja-borgs escape though the window. The Trevor loots one vibro-sword, 1 bionic hand and two cred sticks with 13,000c and 6,000c. Frank loots 2 vibro-swords and Oliver loots 1 vibro sword.
