[rl with Marvelous and Kaitou. And an elephant]

[boostup4beetbuster]

[Don't even ASK how Jin managed it, but he'd successfully managed to get an elephant aboard the Gokai Galleon. No, really--don't ask. Apparently it was a "trade secret." But still, he and the elephant were aboard, and now that part 1 of the mission was accomplished, it was onto step 2: taking out his Morphin Blaster and calling up both Kaitou and Marvelous.]

Hey. We've got an elephant in the room we need to talk about.

"Bingo," Jin answered. "Marvelous gets the dubious honor of heading up the all-new Dai Zangyack while Tsukasa takes over Dai Shocker. Dai Zangyack attacks Riders, Dai Shocker attacks Sentai.

"Thing is, though, it's meant to be an infiltration mission. One that backfires horribly, thanks to Dai-chan here."

"I'm really hoping that's not MY idea."

Ew...bad taste in his mouth SO bad right now.

"Tsukasa. He always does this sort of thing, even after his stint as Great Leader." Kaitou groaned as he rubbed his forehead. "Tell me he didn't completely fuck everything up."

"... he fucked everything up didn't he?"

[boostup4beetbuster]

"Well, what he and Marvelous have is a failure to communicate--not with each other, but with everybody else. So the minute Kaitou found out that everyone was attacked as a setup, he lost it and attacked everybody."

He held up two fingers. "Which brings me to point 2: Big Machine."

[sumofallreds]

"I'm gonna go ahead and assume it has something to do with 'keeping cover' or some stupid nonsense that I'd only agree to in an emergency..."

He'll look over at Kaitou as if to say 'you'd really do something like that?'

[of_many_treasures]

Kaitou considered it, and admitted, "If I was incredibly betrayed and hurt, yes I would attack everyone."

"But enough of that. What about Big Machine?"

[boostup4beetbuster]

"Which is basically the impression I got the fifteen times I tried and failed to tell you and the one time I got you drunk," he said, rubbing the back of his head.

"It's a combination of the Zangyack flagship and the Crisis Fortress. Turns into a humongous mech--and this is coming from someone who makes them for a living. It is also awesome as hell and would really scare the crap out of both sets of bad guys, so I really don't want to have to hear about it getting Sentai Rider Drill Kicked into bits, you know?"

[sumofallreds]

"Ok...they must've REALLY upgraded the Gigant Horse...cause last time I checked it didn't do that."

And now he's giving Jin the 'you're a MORON' look.

"...." Kaitou had a speculative look on his face. "You wouldn't have brought up Big Machine if you didn't mean for me, or us, to do something about it, right?"

[boostup4beetbuster]

"Gentlemen, what do you think of pulling off the single greatest act of piracy RIGHT IN FRONT of two of the most dangerous organizations in the universe?"

[sumofallreds]

"If you're about to propose what I think you are...tell me there's also some kind of remodeling involved to rub it in."

Being a mecha otaku is one thing: if it means doing something to rub salt into Zangyack's wounds is quite another.

"I'm up for it too, as long as I don't need to change my outfit to do it into Tsukasa's silly jumpsuit," added Kaitou.

[boostup4beetbuster]

"Do whatever you guys think is necessary. Unfortunately, I didn't get J out of Hyperspace before then, so this is your mission."
