"Exactly. And for the record.. I'm not Ryan. Choas swapped the team's bodies and minds around last night. I'm Cassie." He looks at Chance with a bit of heat, the look saying shut up.

Chance shrugs, "You people baby her too much." She walks off to check out the rest of the cabin.

"Why don't you guys want to leave me behind? I keep making mistakes that hurt everyone. I could make another mistake and hurt you guys too. I don't understand." Kelly says, sounding confused. She looks back and forth between Ryan, Cassie and Chance.

"Why would Chaos do that? Wait, what exactly did he do. He put all of you into the wrong bodies? Thats not good, do you think maybe he thought it would be funny or something? What about the mission to go after Genocide? If you guys are all here...does that mean the others are going after him by themselves? They shouldn't... I'm not worth it to go after him when they are really at their best and are missing Ryan." Kelly says sounding even more distressed.

"Karen, keep an eye on Kelly okay? Kelly, I need you to focus on helping us survive. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a few words to disucss with my sister." Cassie follows after Chance.

"What happened back there Chance? You .. flip a switch and went all.. pantheon on us. You killed those men. We're better than that, we've got the skills and talents to disable without killing. And you remember how.. fragile I was Yoshi. Kelly is in the same place now that i was then." Crosses his arms and looks at her. "So, why the sudden change in attitude? The lack of compaassion and empathy? Is Ryan, for once in his misbegotten life right, are you psychoitc?"

“Psychotic? I have no delusions or hallucinations that impair my understanding or observation of reality sister. Flip a switch? Sister this is who I am, I observed and I have found Kelly to be wanting. She is weak, a fool, and has endangered your life and your friends on more then one occasion. Really it would be a mercy killing, sister,” Chance adds.

She hops up on a ruined chair and crouches on the head rest, like a predator, “And you and Yoshi, I remember how you felt after that, how we felt. That sense of weakness sickens me. Better to be hardened then to open one self to the world and watch as your dreams die. Love dies, just like everything else. In a way the only thing that is constant is death.”

“Lack of compassion or empathy, you ask me this sister. But when I have displayed such weak emotions, perhaps you have projected your own traits onto me sister. But I am not you, and you are not me,” Chance replies softly.

"Again with the casual talk of killing." Cassie growls. "I don't understand why you can talk so casually of killing. I know our instincts and training push us down that path, but I know we also have the willpower to ignore it."

He stands and look out the window. "You know why I refuse to walk that path.. Of course you do. Because they left us. Abandoned us. We owe them nothing." He looks back. "Pantheon doesn't deserve our loyalty and we don't need to follow their doctrine. The only difference between baselines and elites are a simple articial construct. Anyone could become an elite, under the right circumstances. No.. evoulutionary event, no.. right to power. Luck. So, how about we lose this.. supremecy attitude okay? Before they take you away from me and lock you up. Or open you up to see how we tick."

"I do what I am best at," Chance replies.

“Who said I was loyal to Pantheon? You see sister my loyalty is to only one thing, us. We may not agree, but we are sisters and that means something. Elites, baselines, even other sentient beings are beneath my concern. We are something more, something better; our destiny is beyond this ball of rock and stardust. We are an expression of the universe…” she trails off and then focuses back on Cassie.

“But I was wrong sister, and you are right… my way of thinking is foolish, I will bow to your wisdom,” she hops down from her perch, standing brushing her hair back, “I apologize.”

"Nice to see one of us has mastered sarcasm." Cassie says. "I just.. I don't want to to lose you. Is that stupid?"

“I would think it would be me just being human,” Chance grins.

"And me being the clueless one who doesn't get it? Does that make me not human?"
