[QUOTE="shadowbloodmoon, post: 3149607, member: 9986"] [sblock=OOC][color=gray]Hehe. Don't you worry, I'm calculating the XP, though it may not get you to 42 though. 41 maybe... I think Dofina is beginning to act as if she takes for granted that you will be there to catch her should she make a mistake... X does not recognize the voice on the [i]Repulse[/i] and at this point you probably shouldn't, but it will become clear soon enough. It is not any Darth, but this person will play a significant role in about 20 years. Im going to leave the meeting for you to describe as I don't recall if X ever mentioned Derek to Dofina... [/color][/sblock] Derek watches as the chaos unfolds in the space surrounding what is left of the central complex. The after effects of such a large explosion have already started to affect the structure of the rest of the complex, with construction struts and scaffolding falling to pieces, littering the already full void with even more scrap. Various metals and plastics were not the only thing to litter the field however. Only a machine mind like Derek's could truly calculate the number of souls that had just been killed, their flames, innocent or not, extinguished with the cold wind of death.
