cityship: (Meanwhile...)

Gently, but with undeniable will divesting myself of the holds that would hold me. (Pt. 5: Chances)

The plan was...well, it wasn't simple, but it sort of was.

While the CLF attacked multiple Clone Processing centers to distract the government, the group with the CLF would target one particular one in the region that'd once been New Jersey. The group with the government would offer their services in putting down their own people.

In the center, they'd split up into several groups. One would fight a fake fight, create a massive diversion, and blow up the room where the samples their DNA were being kept in the process. Another group would secure a teleporter pad. That team would teleport out other teams to steal a ship, steal some med tech to teleport to said ship, and steal a medical database. Another team would go to the main command center and hack into the government mainframe to down the sensornet around the planet so they could escape. And Nightwing himself would accompany the clones to upload the harvested memories to the Mother Brains, left unguarded because of the diversionary fighting, and make sure that was all they did.

Meanwhile, there'd be a standing order for all teams to avoid killing other crewmates, and avoid killing guards unless absolutely necessary.

It was a complicated plan. If a single part fouled up, they might find themselves dead, trapped, or worse. But if it worked, it'd work pretty spectacularly and leave them with medtech, a medical database, the clones helped, and possibly a grateful Council depending on how the fight went, because of the ones seemingly aiding the government.

In some worlds, things that were a million-to-one-chance (exactly a million-to-one) by their nature had to work. Let's hope this world is one of them, eh, mission crew?

"See? I told you they wouldn't be so tough without your experience!" Zetta said, as another one got smashed into pulp by a comically-oversized mace.

Not once in this entire fight had he made a crack about a twin threesome fantasy or any such perversion.

Good. Because Lash would have probably be confused, not sure if she should be insulted or not.

In the end, she just continued to watch the carnage, a tiny smile on her face.

"Yeah yeah yeah," she said with a small flick of her wrist. "You won that one, Overlord."

"Don't worry, Lash. I'll... try to let you win one. Someday. Maybe."

The book surveyed the carnage with a thoughtful expression. Looking at all these fallen Lash copies didn't really bother him, either; now that he'd remembered the status screens, the difference between them and the real one was so obvious he couldn't even think of them as Lash. "Still, glad the real one didn't get hurt."

"I said that one. But you haven't won the others." She was taking out a few more bombs to be able to disintegrate them completely and destroy all the DNA evidence. Her face curled into a strange smile when she threw the first one.

"...Don't worry. I told you I don't get bruised that easily."

It was as close as someone like her could say thank you, honestly.

"Hey, I've won a whole bunch of others. Our first battle? Kicked your ass there, remember."

Zetta: moment-killer.

"Uh, what's with the corpse-desecration, though?"
thewunderkind: (Movement - Let me kill that for you)

"Making sure there's no DNA traces," she explained. "Leave a bit of blood and they'll make more clones of me. Granted, I dunno how their process works, but consider their leaders have been cloning each other for generations, I'm inclined to believe that they also know how to clone from clone DNA."

Lots of fancy words there.

"Leave no traces, make it harder for them to track down a cel. We've probably left a lot of samples everywhere, but at least if I can make it a bit harder for them..."

"Oh."

Zetta thought about this for a moment, then Invited his fire mage. She began blasting stuff worthless char, as the Overlord himself fired a few low-power Zetta Beams into the crowd as well. It was a lot more effort than he'd normally go to for a pretty slim chance, but...

No feelings, just amused him, rationalize etc.

It was a beautiful show of rationalized laser beams and fire carnage everywhere. Slowly, but surely, there would be very little traces of the fake Lashes and their fake afros.
