"Hey, Mr. Archer? There's some weird girl outside the base. Should we just ignore her?" some n00b elemental asked. I guess he thought it was a good idea to stand guard or something, because Silver certainly didn't give anyone the job.
"...'Mr. Archer'...?" Rich asked, since he was so used to either being addressed as 'Rich' or being ignored completely. He tried not to think too much of it, thouh. "Uh... well, what exactly is she doing there?"
"Ringing our doorbell and saying 'Hellooo? Is anyone there?'."
"I was wondering about that obnoxious sound... look, we heard from the other base that we may be under attack. I'll go see if this weird girl is a threat. For now, you're in charge."
"Eeeeeh?! But I don't even have a name yet!"

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

(Hmm... Israfel is outside Trik's office with Louanne and Lyn. Rem is somewhere unknown with Krei. So that means I can only introduce Dirge at the moment.)
Dirge was wandering down some dark hallway within Ragnarok's base, haunted by a thousand voices in his head that were all trying to pull him onto two different sides. Half were screaming at him that he should leave this base and join the light and the other half were warning him that he would not be accepted and that he would be killed by his dark master if he tried something so foolish. He sighed, the soft sound echoing in the darkness. He then rounded a corner and found himself face to face with the very person haunting his thoughts. "Oh, master...", he heard the words tumble from his tongue as he bent over in a low bow.

Behind Mei, there was the sound of a pistol loading, quickly followed by the sound of a pistol firing, the bullet flying straight at her shoulder.

Ragnarok blinked at Dirge. "... And, who are you again?"

Dirge straightened himself, though he turned his gaze to the side so that he was not looking at Ragnarok. "Dirge...", he replied quietly. It came as no suprise to him that Ragnarok couldn't recall his name. Dirge didn't normally wander into the company of others of his own free will.

Rather than answering the girl that showed up at their door, Rich ran back into the base and began looking for Spirn. Rich hadn't even noticed that he was missing. How could she have gotten away - with Spirn, no less - without him noticing?
"Sprin? Oi! Are you still here?!"
"Is something wrong, sir?" some random little girl elemental asked. I don't know why they had random little girl elementals running around, but they did.
"Oh, I was just... looking for someone..." as he said this, he noticed the poor elemental he had put in charge was curled up in the corner. "What happened to him?"
"He's having a mental breakdown, sir."
"Oh. Well, um, I need to find Sprin. While I'm doing that, you're in charge. You might want to get a psychic to help that guy. Oh, and stop calling me sir. I'm not that old."
"...Eeh?"
After searching for a while and finding no trace of Spirn, Rich headed back to the front door, after the girl that had apparently kidnapped him. Except she had kind of already left.

"Hello, Archer." came the all too familiar voice of his former boss. Following the voice, there came the sound of mechanics working, and wheels turning.
Up rode Feral, riding an electric wheel chair, much like the one Hawking uses, but he didnt have the speaky device.
He leant backi n his chair, glancing at him.
"I see Hunter still hasnt won the war."
(Hey Shans, The only people in Trik's office right now is him. Everyone else is in the hallway, so theres no way he/she could gotten past them.)

Louanne blinked at Maya, startled by her sudden appearance. Something about her was familiar, but she couldn't figure out what. "Er, can we help you somehow?" she asked Maya uncertainly. "Trik's in his office, and I think he needs some time alone." That vague recognition continued to pull at the edges of her memory. Frustrating how she couldn't recall...
Israfel jumped slightly when Maya suddenly appeared before them in the hallway. He then looked from Lyn to Louanne and decided on what to do right then and there. Without giving any prior warning, he opened the door to Trik's office and shoved Louanne inside. She didn't have any time to protest because as soon as she was inside, he closed the door again. He then looked at Maya. "I'm sorry, but you will not be allowed in to see him. No exceptions.", he stated firmly, dreading the fact that a fight would surely start up. It was only Lyn and himself between the door and Maya, and he wasn't sure he could fall back on Lyn either.

Maya just looked over at Israfel "I don't think your in the position to be making those decisions" she said, "But that's ok, your blocking the door, how can I possibly get through right?" As soon as she said this, she disappeared from Israfel and Lyn's sight.
"Huh? Where did he..." she started, then relised that this shouldn't be considered extra ordinary in her current situation.. "Teleportation!" she said out loud, as if she just solved the biggest problem in the world.
On the other side of the door, Maya appeared behind Louanne "I'd kinda like to talk to Trik in private.. please..." she said.
(Forgot to mention... Spirn/Maya can talk now cause he/she got reincarnated so to speak...)

Louanne was startled by Israfel's sudden actions. She was even more so when Maya randomly appeared behind her just seconds later. "Wha-" She looked at Trik. "Er...Should I leave then?" Suddenly, she froze, turned, and stared at Maya again. "You...she...what the..." She shook her head. "This is going to be random," she told Trik, "but since this girl appeared maybe a minute ago, I've had this nagging feeling I knew her." She paused. "It turns out that...her brainwave patterns are really similar to Spirn's...My MindReading kept picking up on them, but I wasn't aware of it."

Trik hadn't been aware of the people that entered the office. He was too busy staring out the window. Stress was weighing heavily on his shoulders.
He turned to them. His face wasn't what itn ormally was. It was severe depression.
"What do you want, Spirn."

Israfel blinked as Maya disappeared from his and Lyn's view. He then realized that he could hear the voices within Trik's office. Maya was already inside, just making things worse for Trik. The angel could already tell that their leader was going to break under all the pressure and give up on all hope of winning this war... Louanne was really the only one who could have helped him, but that had gotten totally screwed up. The thought almost made Israfel scream in agitation, but he didn't. Instead, he leaned against the wall and slid to the floor in a sitting position. His eyes fell closed and he sighed deeply, feeling a headache coming on. The angel often had headaches, at least twice a day, and no medication ever helped him. "Dang it...", was all he said.
