Task:

Ataru was having a hell of a day trying to keep his cool. Plans were going as expected and there hadn't been one slip up so far. It was the most troubling news he heard all day. He had been in the business for about 5-7 years now and there was one thing he knew. There was no worse trouble then when everything appeared fine. He knew that Knuckles was around, he'd understand the worries that Ataru had he was a veteran. Walking up to where his captain was he spoke to him frankly, his helmet was off so his face was visible at the moment. "I have bad news Knux everything is going perfectly. There hasn't been one incident since we've started the takeover. I need to blow some steam off, I know something bad is coming. I just can't put my finger on it. I've heard tales of some ancient ruins out there unexplored because of the large predator species that live here. I say we take advantage of our strength and these new gifts of yours and go for a spin. If anything happens we'll be able to respond faster from the field anyways. Don't worry I have my vision dial this time."After listening to Knuckles response to him Ataru would do one of two things. If Knuckles accepted going out into the forest he'd start packing up and getting ready to leave. Once Knuckles was ready he'd meet him on the streets of the dock. Ataru didn't have his helmet on again today he was getting use to being familiar with the people here.

Or if Knuckles refused Ataru would buckle down finding somewhere to sit in the room with Knuckles. He'd listen to any initial things Knuckles had to say but as soon as he was given a pause for breath or anything of the sort. He would began asking him "Well what is it that has you so busy today Cap'N?"'

Either way after Ataru was packed with or without Knuckles he would get ready to leave. He drank some of his water from his moleskin, it was sickening there was something about the jungle that made water taste worse. Walking from another bridge they/he'd soon find they were close to the exit of the town. Ataru would pull out the map he had received from his network. It was indeed a very outdated map of the area, he couldn't exactly make out a location. He could find the general area though as he staked out where exactly he wanted to go. A simple enough route.

Knuckles was reading up on the report from North while they had been away. He had much to catch up with the revolution but since he met up with Ru he hadn't done many of thing for them directly anyway. He was sure he was needed out there fighting a war but he truly only used them for funding. Even if some of the ties were the same, referring to the endgame of course. Finishing the report Knuckles was rubbing his eyes when Ru came in. Hearing something was wrong Knuckles sighed as of course there was when wasn't there anything wrong.  Upon hearing that indeed nothing was wrong he was a bit relieved. He let Ru finish before he'd give his input.  "Paranoid is a common effect to big changes in one's life. Doubt can seed itself into the minds of even the most confidante of men. Though, as my first mate you of course do have a right to feel this way. "   Knuckles stood to his feet then pushed his chair in. "I'll met you on shore in ten minutes,
there is many forms of meditation, active meditation if my favorite. I could use a break from these reports anyway.  Let's go exploring like you wish, perhaps we can find something that can give us further insight of this places true jewel."
Watching Ru head out his office Knuckles did the same as he went and put his suit on.  He made sure to grab his plasma cutter and a few basic medical supplies.  Once ready he headed down to the ship's bridge where Ru seemed to be already waiting. He could see and hear the worry in his voice, while what he said did hold truth Knuckles had learned to enjoy things while they were going smoothly.   Activating his comm gear to send w White line connection to North, Knuckles hoped he'd understand. "We are heading out North,
take charge of the crew. Also set up a watch list with those who don't have key jobs. I want to ensure things don't get out of hand. "
KNuckles then ended the call as he joined Ru on Shore. So, these ruins you were speaking about, just what is rumored to be there? " Knuckles was of course interested in what Ru had heard.

As soon as they were out of earshot of the rest of the crew Ataru would grin while speaking to Knuckles at a whisper like voice."Treasure, I heard about a site that would lead to some real treasure for our time. Should be no problem, the only reason no one comes here is the people we handled the other day. Now we can just help this society get back on their feet by discovering a facet of their history. If we happen to make some beli in the process that's just the cost of good business."Afterwards Ataru would start walking through the city. He was so busy memorizing the routes out of town that he took a couple wrong turns and by the time he looked up he had no idea where he was. He would turn around and look to see if he could see the last road sign from where he was standing. He could with that he decided to take a guess and take a right  at the next tree bridge choiceway. Ataru was sure for a second he saw a mirage but he knew that those couldn't happen in a place like a jungle he had found his way back to the gate. Moving between a couple tree tops the east gate was in sight.  

Once they made it there he would stop and look to see if Knuckles was behind him. It wouldn't be surprising if he had found his own way to the gate He'd make for the gate and once the last bridge was crossed there was a sea of green. The jungle path was the part that Ataru had spent all of his time memorizing. Precisely because of how hard it looked Ataru was prepared for this part of the journey. The trees gave part in small ways to make a semblance of a road. Ataru used the term lightly,but then again there wasn't much need to take machines out this far. It also wouldn't be to hard to believe that the ruins they were gong to civilization built these roads and this was the effect of time. The roads were becoming thinner and more spare as they ventured deeper into the jungle. The sounds of wildlife started to roar, suddenly the effect of the road seemed to have little to impact nature's warriors. Yet Ataru still had an idea of where they were thanks to the bad but barely visible road signs. He knew they were close to the ruins so he wold keep walking forward. He would turn behind him to make sure Knuckles was behind him. Once he was Ataru would walk up the stairs that marked the entrance  to the ruins. The moss green had seemed to form around so much of the stone it was hard to remember they were in a building of sorts. Ataru looking around saw that there was a huge tree that had grown out of a cracked ceiling ahead of  him.

A good ole fashioned treasure hunt eh, well Knuckles could get behind this adventure full throttle. Knuckles would assume that Ataru knew where he was heading and simply placed his hands on top of his head and followed the black male. After walking around for a while Knuckles noticed they had circled their original path. Sighing he knew they were lost, but wouldn't embarrass Ru like that. Without really much to do at this point until they got where they were going Knuckles would take in all the scenery, he still loved how the wildlife seemed to be the law on this island. Sure they cities had laws and what not, but it was mostly plant and wildlife here. Not really touch by the corruption of modern times. Of course he was going to eventually build his lab here but it would be a natural resource ran operation. Using the water generators and solar panel designs in his head to help run and operate the Lab. He could likely use a few high end thunder dials to run things as well. Once they had reached the point where they could see a very large tree knuckles smiled, that had to be a sign of some sort. "Well then, I suspect we are getting close. By the way Ataru..
Did you happen to bring a map along with you?"
Now that it was just them too again, Knuckles would have the chance to poke Ru's brain a bit more about certain things and especially Aloeus. He'd use some of these topics to pass the time as they traveled through the jungle area. Knuckles was starting to notice that maybe white was the wrong color for his suit. It sort of stood out a bit too much for his liking perhaps he'd wear another one if he had time to build it.


He wondered just what was going to be found in their search, what wonders lurked hidden away behind traps and death dealing devices. He'd have to try and find every little hidden jewel there was to be found, surely with the knowledge of both he and Ru they could figure out everything they would need in order to secure the treasures awaiting them. He was a bit excited to try and solve the riddles and puzzles left for them so people like them wouldn't gain access to the gift left behind.

By this point Ataru, had the entire ruins mapped to memory as well as the surrounding areas. So when Knuckles asked for a map Ataru would hand him the one he had recived naturally. "I'm familar with the layout of these ruins, thought the markers have been covered in moss. Parts of the building have been destroyed by the passage of time and nature, so honestly it'll be just seeing which parts aren't destroyed and using those routes. Also I'm afraid I might of lied a little, other things killed the treasure hunters who came here prior besides criminals. I thought for sure it was booby traps, but now that we're actually here I'm starting to think it's something altogether different. I just can't put my tounge on it, but something is definitely giving me a bad vibe. I think its weapons up from this point on. " Ataru would draw his blade, it gave him little comfort to how he was feeling. It was almost like he was being watched, but it wasn't the same normally you could feel eyes on you. Instead Ataru could just feel a menacing presence it was odd for him, he didn't want to walk into another ambush.I've avoided most ambushes since joining this crew now isn't the time to start that old habit up.

Looking around his area again, he couldn't pinpoint the disturbance. After patiently observing for a whole 6 minutes at a dead standstill Ataru decided it was timet o move on. Whatever was watching them was content on not making their move for now. Ataru would check the different hallways in the mossy high room. In total there appeared to be 4 working hallways, two of them lead to rooms that Ataru was not interested in. One lead deeper into the ruins skipping a lot of the unnecessary rooms used for logistics and other things. That hallway was just past the giant tree and the one Ataru was planning to take, the other was the hallway that lead through each floor of the ruins. This passage wouldn't take much longer but if there were traps it would most definitely be on this path. Deciding to use logic Ataru took the shorter but deeper path. As he started to walk by the tree that's when he realized he had made a mistake. He hadn't been but 2 meters away from the tree when he finally heard it, the sound of slithering over the tree. What he had mistaken for tree droppings were actually bones and other assorted human and animal remains.

While taking this all in 10 snakes dropped from the tree 5 of them biting at Ataru as his reactionary haki covers his whole body except for his head. It had been something he had been training in his meditation he hoped that Knuckles would be impressed by it. The snakes hadn't been able to pierce his Haki hardened skin as he took his sword and make a quick motion dispatching 3 of the snakes while the remaining 7 regrouped. They were using some kind of group tactics it was off putting to Ataru so instead of charging in like usual he moved closer to Knuckles with his sword drawn. He had to make sure they both handled this adequately.

Hearing the words of Ru, Knuckles sloped down in his posture. Depression would wave over him as the very thing he was looking forward to more than the treasure was nonexistent , at least from the Intel Ru had gathered about this place. His information was rarely wrong, and when they were it was only slight details. Knuckles was no longer feeling the thrill, folding his hands behind his head he looked up just walking along Ru now. "Way to destroy my dreams... I was looking forward to challenging my mind with the games set by those from long ago, people often think we are the smartest group because we are the most advanced. But some of these older Humanoids were pretty clever." As he finished speaking he paused to take a few looks around, he had some odd feeling, like his sixth sense was awakening. Ataru seemed to have stopped for the moment as well, but only for a moment where Knuckles waited a bit longer. Without much warning Knuckles heard the sound of a sword being drawn from a sheath, this sound he had become accustom to hearing. Ru's draw had it's own sound, each swordsmen did, the height, length, build and more of the person's body gave a different angle of draw giving it a different drag sound. Upon hearing this sound Knuckles would drop his hands to his waste grabbing the plasma cutter he built and activating the beam. He saw how Ru had gotten bit but it didn't seem to be effected by it, as Ru finished off three of the ten snakes and made his way back to Knuckles, the crimson haired mail moved towards him, then inspected where he had seen the Snakes strike. To his surprise most of Ru's body had Haki covering it, everything but his head it seemed, or so it looked. "When did you learn that!? Just as i catch up you surpass me once more!" His voice was that of a shocked and surprised persons. Knuckles quickly turned back to the threat, at times like this he wished he still carried the Thunder dial glove, he might have to start carrying such a thing with him again or make some new gear. Within seconds he noticed why Ru had done something odd for his normal nature, the snakes seemed to be working in a pack like a of wolves or another type of pack animals. Knuckles stepped forward and noticed there were seven remaining and heading towards the tree. Knuckles grinned as he activated the turbine engines on his suit three times in a row, leaving him a signal charge to keep the suit going. The first burst from the suit he would launch himself at a 45 degree angle into the air, at the max height he'd propel himself through the air going above the snakes and the third and final burst a full 10 meters on the other side of them trapping them from reaching the tree. They were no caught between the two Falcons, which worked out well allowing them to split the focus. They would either have to pick a single target or slip the resources. It seem it was the latter as three of them came towards Knuckles at once, adjusting his beam he set it to the max width of 2 inches, and lowered the length to only a foot. This gave him a sword length total of 1.6 feet. The reason he did this would to increased the surface area he could cut, and by lowering the length down he made the beam more stable not losing any of his cutting power. Due to this he would be able to make two slashes and cop the snakes up twice into a total of nine parts. This left four between him and Ru.

Seeing the effort that Knuckles was putting forth Ataru didn't plan on slacking. His reprieve from fighting directly didn't reveal any hidden talents of the snakes. Knuckles was dealing with them with grace, almost like he was a swordsman himself. Ataru used his jet dial to take off at full speed he appeared in front of Knuckles slashing down at one of the snakes its head severed as its body moved in muscle spasms. Pointing his axe dial he released one charge at each of the last remaining snakes clearing the menace. Around the base of the tree bones from travelers and would be explorers littered the ground. Ataru could tell that these snakes were most likely the trap left for any grave robbers, he wondered how many they would have to face up ahead. Looking at Knuckles he would speak "Hey Knux, something tells me that these snakes are the trap. I couldn't even see them when they were on that tree. They must have some kind of camouflage then again my perception has never been the best. Whenever we see something tree like we should expect trouble as we continue."Ataru would smile as he moved on ahead in the ruins not even looking back at the remains around them. From here on out the crunching of bones of different kinds were all that laid on the ground. It seemed that many had made it further than they thought to only be finished off by one of the snakes.

It was when they entered the hallways that Ataru's memorization of the map came in handy. The route was a simple one if you knew the right path, A left , right , left, left, right, right and finally a left. Ataru hoped the hallways wouldn't have any trees in them as they started to traverse through the first left. If Knuckles asked him any question about the path he would answer back with he was sure the right way. So far none of the hallways had been destroyed so Ataru hadn't been faced with that decision. Then again they were only at the entrance and bad things typically happened a little bit further in when options were slimmer. They finished moving throughout the hallways the architecture a lichen moss stone surrounding them. Ataru would be more than content when he was done having the smell this ruin. Beli lied ahead though, he could feel it.

Knuckles let his blade rest at his wrist double checking it to ensure it was indeed off. If it was he would pace it onto his hip if not he would turn it off then attach it to his hip. Hearing Ru's words he dropped his head. "How boring indeed. Though the nature of them is interesting, I'd like to bring a sample back to my lab for um research of course." Knuckles lowered to the ground picking up a chunk of the snake he cut placed into a baggy and stuffed it away in a slot where he could keep gear in his suit. Once it was stored away Knuckles would turn back to follow the trail behind Ru. He kept a look out for anymore trees, while of course keeping the map he was given handy to reference where they were. It seemed the route had been placed simply with a series of choices. "So Ataru, level with my old friend... What's had you so riled up as of late?" He had noticed slight changes in Ru's behavior, he was more aggressive and cold hearted. He was hoping that Knux wasn't the cause for such things. He surely didn't want to draw his crew drown in sorrow with him. This was a good chance for him to carry out his leadership abilities and get that one on one time that allowed him to really get to know his men and figure out what made them tick, what personal issues they were going through and what goals they had for themselves in life. After all they pretty much had just been running round doing thing that benefited them both yes but mostly KNuckles. Ever since the start it seemed that Ru was going out of his way to bring Knuckles up to speed on training and how he did business and how the world worked outside the Revolutionary. What did he ask for in return? Nothing it was too good to be true, there was something Ataru needed and Knuckles would find out now, hopefully anyway. As they traveled they had made two of the turn thus far allowing Knuckles to see multiple picture carved into the wall. It was nice to see the art of another time and culture a world that had been shut off from the world for a long time.

At Knuckles question Ataru would speak without hesitation."Ah, I wasn't aware it was so obvious I've had a business dilemma as of late. I've found the solution necessary that all parties proceed happy. Now it's just about enacting it in the right way, other then that the typical worries. Who's going to live etc...Surely you still have those right? I do know one thing though, after we establish the base here on Hebi I need to collect my things from Tundra. That's one of the things on my mind too now that we're talking about it. Just like to have my possessions close to me don't like having them so far away for so long." Finishing his long winded response Ataru hoped it was sufficient for Knuckles. With that behind them Ataru would walk into the last marked location on the map. It would become glaringly apparent why that was, there were two things that caught Ataru's eyes. The paintings around all the room, as well as the chest past the large tree. Ataru expected there to be more of those snakes in the tree, or at least close enough to attack intruders somewhere near. Looking at Knuckles before he entered the room he'd speak again. "Yo Knux, whatever you do don't cause collateral damage these paintings are part of the loot for this. Try to just kill the snakes that are about to jump us."

Ataru would walk into the room and start to walk towards the chest. as soon as he pierced the depths of the room he could hear the slithering. He wasn't sure if it was his imagination or if there were that many snakes that were inside that tree. Ataru reactivated his Haki before anything even came to pierce him this time. His black coated body still made his muscles bulge with excitement. He was glad that their opponent were snakes, he didn't feel the need to hold back against them. Almost as soon ashe had activated his Haki aura 20 of the snakes dropped from the tree to surround the room. Ataru wasn't sure where Knuckles was at this point but he hoped he remembered about the paintings. Ataru was now focused on the snakes in front of him.

The first lunged at him, Ataru wasn't sure if these snakes even had fangs but he didn't plan on finding out. He would swing his blade at the top of the monsters cutting the upper portion of its head. The snakes tail collided with Ataru's fram at the same time to try to be a double attack. Unfortunately for the snake Ataru's haki softened its blow so he held his ground. Well that's one down, only a lot more to go..

Knuckles nodded his head as RU talked, getting the information he sought from his friend. I see, well if there's anything I can do to help I will. We can head for your things as soon as we're done here. I can understand the worry of being gone for such a long time." Knuckles then followed Ru to the last point on the map, he acknowledged the warning of the paintings and nodded. As if he would anyway, things like that caused more problems for those who had did such things. Once they had entered the room he stopped at the door way to take in the room as he had done in every room they had since entered since coming into the area. It seemed now there were going to face the remaining threats in the ruins, He watched as Ru went forward with his attack going to follow Ru he felt his legs constricted. Looking to his legs he saw a hand full of snakes warping around his legs. Well this isn't good.. He thought before grabbing his blade and slashed at them once the switch had been turned on and the crimson blade roared to life. Steam rose from the dead snakes for a second due to the heat of the blade. Looking to Ataru, he saw his friend was dealing with a situation of his own, Knuckles activated his suit's jet engines came to life sending him to the side of Ataru. Placing his back near Ataru's hoping they could fight off the swarm.


Now that he didn't have to worry about his back being attack he would swing his blade freely to the threats in the front taking out three snakes which lunged at him at once. Again, he was able to chop them up into smaller parts of themselves. It was at this point he noticed he needed to attain some more gear. Something that could give him range like before with those glove he had gotten from Ru, the problem with those gloves is they didn't fit well with the rest of his gear. Knuckles would have to find some way to add some features to his suit and soon, if not make himself more of a weapon. Of course like any good Doctor or scientist he would experiment on himself before he would supply things to others.

Surrounded by snakes on all side, Ataru's first thought was to unleash a holy hell with his thunder dial. Then again he didn't want to take the risk that the ground would absorb more of the shock than the snakes. He decided instead to turn on his heat dial, he wanted some exercise and here was a prime opportunity for some. His body felt safe underneath the haki as he twirled into the air swinging his sword horizontally with his body. He cut two of the snakes in front of him before they dispersed out of his immediate area. If I didn't know better I'd say these snakes are intelligent but that couldn't be. He would take the snakes chance of spreading out to activate his axe dial in his left hand shooting both charges into their masses while charging the opposite side that was encircling him. From his estimates it looked like he had taken out 6 or so with his axe dials the snakes bodies have the last muscle spasms as their life escaped them. There was a snake that had managed to wrap itslef around Ataru's leg, the strength of its muscles trying to break through his Haki. It wasn't strong enough but Ataru could sense one or two more snakes simultaneously and his aura would crumble under their combined pressure. Acting quickly he launched himself up into the air with one jet dial boost.

Once he was up in the air and away from the immediate danger of other snakes Ataru switched his sword to his other hand and tilted his axe dial in his other hand shooting cut all the portions of the snake on one side of his legs. The second charge he would aim down at the snakes he just eluded. He managed to hit another 2. He was making decent work out of the snakes, landing in the large tree Ataru could make out a nest in front of him. There were eggs and a few carcasses of different animals but no live snakes were around. Ataru decided to just jump back into the battle instead of exploring further using his jet dial to smooth his landing back among the snakes. He maneuvered past a snakes attempt to ensnare him as his sword cut cleanly through its skin. The heat dial did work like none other making sure that each snake he severed wound was cleanly cut. Looking around he surveyed how much damage Knuckles had done while posturing defensively. There were still more snakes to deal with, but not to many.

What a bad situation fro Knuckles, unlike Ataru he had nothing for range or any other type attacks besides his sword and well his fist. These worked well on humanoids but not so much for snakes. Sure he could swing a kick at them but there weren't super larger or anything. He would only get bitten or wrapped up within their tanglement. Knuckles felt Ru's jet dial's power up, trying to follow up with something Knuckles would swing his blade and twirl it around slashing. He had managed to cut up three more snakes. At this point Ru was landing again only to blast off once more, looking over to him he seen him point his arm down. Knuckles Jet packed away flying 10 meters away but only a few inches off the ground. The snakes leaned back and struck at his boots. It seemed they couldn't punch through his arm with one bite, though he was sure they could manage if enough tired. The pack of Snakes seem to divide once more giving each of them more room to work with, it was a dumb idea to get so close to each other now that he had thought about it. Limited sword swings, and points of attacks. Good thing North wasn't here to see such a thing, he would of had a great time rubbing that one in the Lt's face.


The DIal attack slammed into some snakes taking a handful of them out. "good shot,
but eh Wouldn't that image thing you do work well here?"
He offered a suggestion wondering if the room was perhaps too small for Ru to do such a thing. This would allow knuckles gather more intel on Ru's skills and how he would used these attacks. It was important to watch and try to follow as he could learn how he moved his sword at great speed, perhaps helping Knuckles adjust with the wind resistance at higher speeds. Knuckles increased the Size of the plasma beam by adjusting the nozzle settings on the end, opening it to a wider by shorter blade making it the length of only 10 inches to a total length of 14 inches with the hilt. Now that he had a large surface area but still a strong beam, and that it was closer he could change the style of use around. Flipping the hilt around the beam glowed off his suit giving a crimson glare that came off the suit's gold polishing. Knuckles activated his suit's thrusters again while running using it to only increase his run speed. He dove into a pile of them grabbing one under it's mouth then slashing his blade through its midsection cutting it in half then tossed the head and upper body at the other snakes.

Knuckles suggested that Ataru use one of his larger skills in face of their enemy. However, Ataru knew they could manage without he didn't want to become reliant one skill too much for his encounters. That's how people start developing playbooks against you, that's how he developed a playbook against his masters guards. He's not your master, anymore or do you just acknowledge it in the hopes that your slaves will acknowledge you? Quieting the voice Ataru's heated blade sliced through the last 3 snakes that were around him as he looked back at Knuckles work. They had managed to clear the room of all the snakes, he was glad to have brought a friend along. He wasn't sure he would of been entirely prepared for it by himself, though realistically he would of managed it eventually. Deactivating his Haki aura and his heat dial he would smile and talk to Knuckles as he started to walk past the great tree to the final room detailed on his map."This is it man, I can feel it in this next room. The paintings themself already make a nice haul but I'll bet you that there's something to sweeten the load in this next room."

For once Ataru has never been happy to be so right. The first thing that is noticable when walking through the door is the large amount of gold that is glimmering from a small ray of sunlight. It was coming from the top of the ruins multiple stories up. How large the window was Ataru couldn't completely tell because of the distance. The gold that piled around them made Ataru's heart leap they were in for a good haul alright. Ataru would turn to Knuckles and say "So, uh how we going to take all this stuff back? I mean I don't really know any vehicles that can get this far so I guess we could bring the crew probably let them pocket a little bit for the labor?" He didn't have many ideas and this was one of them. Ataru never minded sharing loot with others, he found that those who were stingy often didn't live as carefree. He'd be greedy once the beli touched his hands, that was completely different though it could always be played off as being financially responsible. Ataru's plans were all starting to come towards their climax, so far everything had fallen into place as expected. The only thing left were the unexpected variables the unseen the things that Ataru strengthened himself for everyday. Ataru hated combat, something that he didn't often tell others and it was times like these where he was surrounded with treasure that he could breathe a little easier. It was worth it to some degree I suppose.

Standing to his feet the Captain turned his blade off and attached it to his hip. Taking a breather he looked at the treasure, his emerald green hues shining with joy at the site. Walking over to his partner in crime he placed a hand on his shoulder. Good work, as for the merchandise I got a plan for that. " Patting the shoulder where his hand was the male took a few steps from where he was and pressed on his com chip. He set the function on the private line directly to North. "North, gather the men. We need some help bringing the loot back. " After telling north where they were and how to get there with point by point directions north came back over the comes. "Understood Lt. Shi. I will have the men prep for the task.
"
Then line then went out as the communication was over. Turning back to Ru he gave a thumbs up. "No to sit around and wait till they get here. " It was likely an hour or so would go by before anyone would come to aid them in moving the treasure. Perhaps Knuckles should work on some type of transportation device or perhaps try to rip a wormhole open so they could travel through it with ease. No, that would take far too much time and research to manage to make something like that work. Finding a good area to sit at and relax the crimson haired male walked over to that area and took a seat. He would sit here until his men had gotten to this location. If Ataru had anything to say Knuckles would listen and reply if need be. If not Knuckles would rest his mind and body with a stage 1 nap. Also known as mediation to some where you body was relaxed and at the point of resting but the mind was still active and alert.


Knuckles could hear voice approaching sometime later, all 50 of his men were coming led by North. Once North broke through the threshold of the door Knuckles peeked through his eye lids to see they had arrived. Climbing to his feet he walked over and shook North's hand. Alright boys, let's start loading this stuff up. Everyone gets a share! " Mostly this was going to go to Ataru and Knuckles for doing most of the work, but since they came to load it he'd allow it to go to them as well. There was much use for the added income from this job, he had saved up enough to build a new suit or ever start up grading his Android if needed. Giving a helping hand they had everything loaded in now time. The room had looked so much larger with what they had gathered out of it. "Time to go to the bar boys!" Heading out the would bring the loot to the ship before heading out for a few drinks.
