    Well, there will be a kill switch that K'raq will have, but that might not convince the Antagonist to work for us.

    OK, time for your surgery. I will be performing the surgery and the cybernetic legs are custom built by me to match your personality and body type. The surgery will take about 10 hours. *Put the Antagonist under for the surgery*

    Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. He will be better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

    Love the reference, but my legs are already growing back
    *Motions to his legs, which are indeed, growing back*
    Why not just speed up the process with cybernetic implants instead of entirely new legs?

    Only if you can get him to quack like a duck when he hears any variation of "Grrr."

    Ill make my own attatchments, thank you very much! ....normally, i'd storm out at this point, but just give my legs a few minutes to regenerate, so as not to ruin the moment.....there we go, perfect! ahem....I'll create my own modifications, thank you very much! no wait, first one sounded better, just go with that one!
    *Storms out....straight into two waiting teaguards*
    Dang it, you guys thought of everything! Wait.....you'll never make it through the sickly swamp base without my help...which means I have Leverage!

    No, it doesn't. We're willing life and limb to portect the Teacup. If it comes to it, we can simply use the evil K'lones at gunpoint.

    I think the Antagonist can explain on how well K'raq "cooperates" when held at gunpoint. Beside, the k'lones won't work anyways, they are most likely set to self destruct when used against their creator.

    Antagonist if you help us, I can get you a lifetime supply of TeaTurtle soup ((It's imitation TeaTurtle soup, not the real thing. The Antagonist won't be able to tell the difference.))

    Ooh, he just might go for that.

    *reviews the Teacup Archives for info on the swamp and the base there*

    Not much to go on, but if Antagonist helps us it will go smoother. Last time we were there it was protected by all sorts of turrets and other defense systems that were set to attack me and K'raq, but they might not bother Mizarone or Dawson since they would be new faces. But just in case I think we should hide under giant upside-down teacups to sneak in past the image-recognition scanners (think like Metal Gear with the cardboard boxes). That should get us to the entrance. I'm sure we can come up with something silly and clever to get inside from there.

    Im with krents plan; ive already got Minioneer doing a tactical analysis of the bases defenses, and according to him, Akset has generated a large shield around the whole base!
    *Begins a powerpoint presentation, projecting on the wall*
    We'll need to break into the small, though fortified, shield house, and disable the generator. unfortunately, once the shields down, we'll need to distract the main defense systems, preferably by sea, so we can make a land approach.
    *Gets a call from Minioneer*
    Well.....looks like my secret little surprise is ready. for the distraction we'll need two large battleships, to pose enough of a threat to be worth targeting. Krent, get sparkles to take the Chai, and ill have Minioneer rendezvous with him in the Newly Rebuilt Botony Bay!

    As for air defenses, i'd be ready for anything; my base was built in a way where one defense system could be repurposed to fill the role of another, and due to the lockdown area around the signal generator/repeater, we would have to attack from both the air and the ground to reach both of the failsafe switches to end the lockdown around the signal repeatron. Whatever Akset is planning to do, she'll likely use the second generator as a backup to restart the lockdown, so we need someone to disable that before we use the fail-safe.
    *Ends powerpoint*
    Any Questions?

    I happen to have an aircraft carrier that we can use to supplement the battleships. It was was, uh, accidentally brought over during one of my earliest teleporting experiments. I can have the Philadelphia ready in two hours.

    I can disable the backup generator. I can teleport past the defenses and sabotage the generator so that it cannot be repaired unless it is taken offline for weeks and it would still appear to be running normally.

    Antagonist- "then we need you taking out the sub generators. can you automate your battleship? I put a teleporter dampening field in when i was building the base, but maybe we could send a team disable it, then you could sabotage the generator?"
    *Wishes he had more power point slides*
    Minioneer(Over intercom)- "Sir, it appears we have a problem"
    Antagonist- "What is it, did one of my little surprises malfunction again?"
    Minioneer- "If only.....actually sir, it seems that Akset's put the primary controls for the Signal Repeater on a genetic lock of some sort...."
    Antagonist- "huh.....ya, that is a pretty big complication....dang, of all the times for my plans to fall apart from one little detail, th–wait.....Minioneer, is Teska on summer break yet?"
    Minioneer- "judging by the fact that her fan club is celebrating and partying, and that 200 news tips have been sent in to major brodcasters all proclaiming that Teska is out of Tea university for the summer, I would have to guess, "Yes""
    Antagonist- "Hehehehe! Thank god for unhealthy obsession! looks like our plan to take out Akset will work after all...we'll just need some help!"
    *Hangs up, and turns to Mirazone*
    Antagonist- "You wouldn't happen to have seen the Princess of ruby island recently, would you? Obsessive fans can only dig up so much information..."

    Its kind of hard to automate a carrier that requires 1,000 crew to operate and maintain. Fortunately, the entire crew arrived safely with the ship. Reaon why it will take 2 hours to get ready is that she needs to be topped off with fuel for the jets

    Doesn't your defense systems have a master override code such as 1A2B3C?

    Mr. Sparkles has dissapeared again, but I'll make sure the HMS Chai is in position, although she's not quite a battleship.

    So, We use our teacup disguises to get to the main generators, Mizarone hits the backups, then we can teleport Teska in to deactivate the repeaters, and then there will be cake. Is that about right?

    *K'raq silently stalked through the halls of the swamp base. He did not know how he had gotten here. One second he was about to attack the Klesser, the next he was in a random hallway of the base. When he had encountered a seemingly lost K'lone, he assumed that this base now belonged to Akset, so he continued his way through the base, looking for a way to hamper Aksets progress*

    Yep. Cant help but wonder where K'raq is though.....

    If there's a fly cam around here than....ahem....Hey, K'raq, try to access a computer to figure out what it is Akset plans to do!

    Yep that's Antagonist for us. He'll get the mightiest door with the heftiest lock but the cheapest of hinges and only be able to afford one set of keys which will be promptly lost in the laundry.

    *Krent puts in a call to the Teacup Navy Admiralty*

    Commodore #64, I need you to take the HMS Chai and the HMS Lipton to rendezvous with the SS Botany Bay off the coast of the swamps. Your mission is to provide distraction and cover fire while our team infiltrates the Antagonist's secret base there. We're counting on you.

    Oh good the giant teacups are here. In order to get them here on short notice they had to be made out of styrofoam, so don't get shot.
