The Price

Everyone is awake and in the main dining room as he even has the trainees gathered up today. As everyone is looking around Tina is cooking calmly having mostly gotten back into the feel of cooking for people. Dante walks in with the two in their suits as most gasp and he faces them all.

"Alright everyone we have an opportunity to do something that is unheard of outside of Nature herself." all voices still "I can't take everyone but those that are already Beasts have the right to join me or not, this is their own call."

Diana taps as the projector shows the island instead of the birds and such it normally does. "This is Island 13. It was part of the manmade extensions plans for Oceanic 4 a hundred and eleven years ago." everyone is looking at it and she points "That symbol by the side indicates it is entirely devoid of human life and inhospitable."

Monica steps up and it vanishes and a new image comes up now. "This is active drone view of the island this morning. Much of the city work is already done and while some areas are damaged and need work much is still up for open creation." she taps as it shifts around to one spot "After discussion this point will be the landing point."

Dante speaks up now as they have done their part. "Here is the gist of it everyone." they look to him "In two months their wallets will be rushing to claim this island and what is on it for themselves." he smiles "However they want us to move there so if we can claim it first, we get the entire island and everything there for ourselves."

Cliff speaks up now looking to him. "We get an entire damn island?" Dante says if they can claim it and he nods "We have two months to do something beyond human." he looks up "When do we leave?"

Dante looks to him and the rest. "Everyone stop and think now." they look to him "From start to finish we will be on our own. We will live, bleed, and may even die there." he looks to all of his Beasts "They have sent hundreds there at times and none lasted a week. We will be going into the very jaws of death and this time we don't have a home to come back to after the day is old."

Onya gets up and walks closer as she looks to him then as they lock eyes she stands still before nodding. "We learned much about living without homes on our trip Dante. We also have everything there to use so will not be fully without restock options." she points to him "You however must cook."

Dante laughs some as he nods with a smile. "You can rest assured my kitten I will cook." he looks around to everyone "I can't take you with me unless a Beast and this isn't against you but the simple fact that I legally can't."

Lisa comes in smiling. "I hear my God has some spiderlings he needs trained up so where are they?" Dante smiles seeing her as she returns it with a whistle "Make sure you come back soon boy otherwise I will be seriously pissed." Dante walks up and hugs her as she whispers "I trust you but you have no escape so please." she hugs him "Don't kiss and vanish please?"

Dante gives a soft kiss and nods his head. "I won't say how I will look next time but rest assured I will be returning. I still have unfinished business." she nods saying they are still looking for his killer as he nods "Thank you my Spider Queen."

He looks to the rest as he can see ten of his Beasts are standing and suited up. "We will drop everything we don't need here at home. I am not saying we will travel light. I am saying we need to reorganize our items." He nods as Onya speaks then looks to the rest and those that are not joining as they nod to each other in respect.

Edna comes in and calls out as he looks her way. "How many are going Dante?" he says thirteen and she nods "All of you come with me then." she looks to him "Aeon wishes to see you so once we are done go see her okay?"

He rides in her car as he holds her close while she cries letting out her fears and worries before they reach her company. Once there he takes some time to go talk with Ally which was much like he was with Edna just more snuggling as hugging and holding helps her more. Once back Edna looks as Sava forms up and smiles. "Sava you will be with them for some time. I am going off to do a hunt so dangerous I want to know those I love are safe for me to return too."

Sava moves and sits before him as they look to each other before they lean foreheads together. "I will guard my Alpha's mates with my very life until your return. I don't know what you hunt but you asked none but me to guard those you hold most dear." she licks his face once "I will serve you faithful until the day my soul breaks under the moon's howl."

Dante has tears in his eyes much like Sava as they both lean back. "None beyond you would I ask in my family." she barks softly once as he barks in response and they nuzzle before she walks over stopping next to the two of them "I asked Sava to guard you two until my return. She trusts and loves you both fully so you can rest assured Sava will do as you want. You may not speak the same as I do but she understands body and the sound of a voice well."

Edna has some tears in her eyes as she nods with a hand on Sava. "You can make being calm so hard Dante." he smiles softly as he nods "If anyone tries to harm her I will personally pilot the mech to crush them." he licks his lips as she blushes some "Go and speak with Aeon now." he looks to her "I need a moment to collect myself Dante."

The rest with him follow Ally as they are told to collect what they need. When Onya goes to ask cost the look Ally gives her silences her instantly and she just nods quickly. New compartments, watches, secondary suits, and formulas for every possible situation are collected by each member.

Aeon looks up before she dives as he catches then kisses her softly as her eyes are red and sore looking. "I finished the suit after your friend sent in the tongue." he smiles and sits on the table as he takes out nearly three dozen vials as she looks to him "I but, are they all mine?"

Dante smiles as he rubs her face. "I can't have my girlfriend getting thirsty while I am gone now. Thank you Aeon and once this is all over I will give you a giant space to have a massive lab in." she looks up to him and skips the vials to hold him "I am looking forward to seeing more of your creations my dear plus more of you."

She looks up and nods as she smiles softly. "I changed the vials a little so you should enjoy it more hubby." he says she was involved so he already does as she smiles "If you need me please message me and I will come over in my best mech and start kicking ass." Dante kisses her once more and syncs up his new suit. Unlike most, this one hurt like no one's business. Once it was done he looks to her and she seems to relax before smiling. "It didn't do anything bad." he blinks as she smiles "Well it was a first try prototype and those are the near certain fatal ones."

Catching his breath he wishes he knew that was coming. However as he looks all seems in order and even his presets are in place. He shifts form as she shouts stop before he takes one. Looking to her he raises an eyebrow. "Okay, I am here for you today dearest. Thank you and all my presets seem to be in place." she mentions how she has added a few more sensitive reactive points as he worries now "I look forward to it dearest."

Dante kisses her once more as she rests before nodding. "I know I can be a little demanding Dante and well, very demanding." she sighs and looks up "Once you come back or I join you there." she clutches her hands between them "Can we go on a date?"

He is now back and looks to his body as he is testing the presets and sees each one seems to be far more detailed and worked on. Getting an update on that after asking Ally he learns Aeon worked hand and hand with Trace to upgrade the touch portions of the suits. She has the update along with Edna while Aeon still can't decide if she wants one or not. Nodding his head as he runs his fingers over the wall and can't argue this is far superior than it used to be.

He is coiled with Ally as she is laughing being outsnaked by him. She knows this isn't for fun and despite everything his heart plus mind are a mess right now. How couldn't they be? He is about to take the twelve people who will go to beyond the end of the world and back with him to a place that can kill them easily. Some distraction before you head off to die? Yeah that isn't too much to ask for.

He has swapped out much and once he joins the rest he makes sure to tell them to get rebreathers for personal use plus the exo ones that allow breathing while in the suits. They see he actually takes off all his compartments including his forearm ones and walks over to a set as Bones comes out with a nod. Neither speaks and Dante braces as each plate looking thing arcs on contact syncing with his body to form a unified system.

Once it is done Dante breathes a few times and nods his head to Bones. He taps on his tablet as Dante screams in agony for nearly a minute before everything settles down and he hits his knees. He walks up and checks him over as he takes a knee next to Dante. "All the units are linked Dante, all of the experiments finally paid off." Dante nods weakly as he curls up on the floor "Yeah, I did just short circuit your nervous system for a little there. Rest up and while you are gone we can think of some new tests." Those looking on all swallow as good or not, the price.
