It was official. Bigby was a member of the blue banners.
And not just any member, but he had henchmen, a spy network, tanks, the works. He had really negotiated well when he was getting hired, as this many men were usually something you had to urn. Bigby had been around the Big Blue a little bit sure, mainly just to the gravity pod and the airlock. The heavy gravity chamber to begin his intense training under heavy forces of gravity and the air lock to well... Toss himself out of and fall back to earth. He has usually been able to calculate his jump well enough to land within a quarter mile of his home, sure he had gotten busted up a few times doing so. He was burned to a crisp, lost a few limbs, and went through three sets of skin but it had all paid off one day when he had discovered a hidden power within himself. His body was different, changed. He had a light set of samurai like armor on his arms and shoulders that made his jacket look armored. Also, he was thinking faster. The world seem to slow down greatly, he had finally been able to activate one hundred additional A.I's in addition to his own mind to achieve greater clarity.
Still, he wanted to see more. If any of his... Plans were going to go down the first thing he would need to do was thoroughly go threw their largest military asset. The Bigby Blue. He had asked his friend, a fellow blue banner, to show him around. Bigby was waiting just outside of the air lock he had came in on. Air lock 42.

[Medium Weights On]
Cipher remained silent as he walked through the halls of the Big Blu. Occasionally he would glance out one of the windows to see a view of the earth below. Porsalynne always loved that view. He wouldn't have bothered coming up here, rather preferring to remain at her side, but he had gotten a request to show Bigby around the Big Blu. Strange, one would think he could explore the place himself.
Any soldiers he past gave him a wide birth. They had heard of what happened to Porsalynne and their sympathies were with him. He gave some of them an acknowledging nod, but right now he was lost in his own thoughts.
He looked up to see Bigby standing by one of the airlocks. Strange place for a meeting. He quietly approached his friend, giving him a small nod.

Big y turned around to see his freind, Cypher. "Hey Cipher! How have you been? I've made some upgrades to myself. Added in some armor on the arms and made a breakthrough in the good old reactor. Nice to see you again. So, the Big blue! What a ship huh? I got to see all of it in the flight up here. Where are we going first?"

Cipher looked over his friend, noticing the changes to his attire. So, he had managed to receive his first upgrade. Didn't take him long did it? He gave a small nod of acknowledgement. "Let's just say things could be a lot better right now." A soldier passing by gave the two a sad look. Looked like Bigby was unaware of what had happened in Avalon. Cipher turned, gesturing for Bigby to follow. "It's good to see you were accepted Bigby. So, if you've already seen the ship, where would you like to go first?"

"Truth be told I have not seen very much of the ship. I've been here sure but I mostly just find my way around by blueprints.... Well let's go toe the cafeteria, I could go for some actual food. I'm using my own version of Porsallyne's systems. So this should be a new experience for me. Then I would like to head to the hanger. I have had some tanks, among other things assigned to me and I would like to examine them myself. Hmm, if it's not cut off to us perhaps we could then go to the bridge? I bet it's probably the nicest part of the ship. I notice you aren't looking as weak as when I last saw you buddy. After all that maby we could go to the gravity chamber for a spar. I'm up to 30x myself, if that does not work for you we could always have it in space."

Cipher simply gave a small nod. It was strange that he hadn't seen the bridge yet. They were KAOS operatives. They had access to pretty much anything. He turned and gestured for him to follow. He led Bigby through the ship, eventually arriving to the cafeteria of the Big Blu. There were a number of people were already there, having their lunch/dinner, depending on their shifts. The cafeteria worker looked over at them, giving Cipher a sympathetic smile. "Welcome Cipher 24, Bigby 101," she gave the pair a salute, "How could I help you?"

Bigby walked with Cipher, he began to worry for his friend. But he knew he would have to keep himself more detached from him so for the moment he did not say anything. Bigby tapped his fingers on the desk and looked at today's specials. There was some pretty good things on the menu today. Namekian pasta, Saiyin grilled baby back ribs and oh! " Oh uh, I'll have the lentil and crushed brussel sprout soup from the vegan menu. What do you think Cipher? Are Lintils even good? Should I get some Acrossian meal worms with that? Hmm, maby not. I hear they have teeth...." Bigby had no kind of idea of what was good food and what was not.

Cipher looked over the specials presented to him. Though he knew the Blue Banner army accepted from all races, it was still a little strange to see some of the more alien dishes. At Bigby's question, he gave a small shrug. "Personally, the Lentils are only as good as they're prepared. I've never had them here before. Same for the worms. I'm not really one for worms." he looked over the food before pointing to one, "I'll go for the Saiyan grilled baby back rubs." The worker nodded, giving him a plate. He had heard that the Saiyans seemed to be very adapt at barbeque. Somehow that seemed fitting for them.

Bigby received his plate, it dipped down on the largest portion for his soup. He brought a spoonful of it to his mouth and savored the flavor. "Wow, this is... Bold. I like it, it'l put some hair on your chest." Bigby sat down on a nearby table and noticed that he had both a slice of toast and a wriggling food packet that was colored silver. "Ahh, my meal worms." Bigby opened one little tear in the pack and found it surprisingly more resistant than normal. He finally managed to tear it open just a little bit and white words started wriggling their way out of it and and they made their way for his soup. "Ahh! My meal worms!" Bigby started eating the soup very fast, trying to fight off the tiny assault on his lintel stew. Good god this soup was so strong, the lentils were overpowered by a ridiculously powerful broth that almost seemed to get stronger with every bite. As Bigby swallowed a bunch of toothy meal worms aside it he was struck dumb by how much better he could taste everything.

Cipher tried really hard not to watch Bigby eat his food. The fact that his food was still wriggling caused his stomach to churn slightly. He dug into his food, munching away at the fries that had been provided as a side, occasionally taking a bite out of the ribs. The meat was nice and tender, and the sauce had a nice level of spice to them. The fries were nice and crunchy as well. He glanced back at the cafeteria worker, trying to see if she had a tail or not. She seemed too good at making Saiyan barbeque.

Bigby finished his soup in record time, leaving only one worm flopping about on the bottom like a fish out of water. He covered his mouth and exhaled, similar to a belch but more... Efficient. While he did this politely if Cipher got a wiff at just the right time he would catch the scent of bugs and raw sewage. "Excuse me, so how have you been Cipher? Are you doing alright?"

He quietly finished his meal, leaving only bones on his plate. As Bigby spoke up, a pained expression appeared on his face. "I'm guessing you don't know what happened. Porsalynne's in the hospital. There was a terrorist attack in Avalon and she was gravely injured..."

"Oh my god that's terrible! Wait, why is she in the hospital? I thought she was entirely mechanical? If you tell me where she is I could go down and fix her ASAP! Just as soon as I go home and fetch my tools... Who did this!? Where they caught?"
ooc: I'm investing in a healing ability right now, or a repair ability I suppose. It could repair her.

Bigby's concern caused Cipher to smile. "Well, as you know, Porsalynne's construction was to be the closest thing to an artificial human. As a result, human medicine was able to stabilize her. I appreciate the offer, but it's unnecessary. Scientists have been sent down to Avalon to finish the repairs. She's in good hands."
At the thought of those responsible, he clenched his fists. "As for those responsible, it was a criminal organization called the Red Eclipse. Most particularly, a majin called Komoto." A small snarl appeared on his face.

Bigby immediately flashed back to the Majin that he had met earlier this very week. He had turned down Bigby's offers for alliance (albeit at the cost of his loyalty to the blue banners) and had just barely managed to escape him. The red Eclipse did not send a simple goon to deal with him. he was to powerful to be a messenger. So now he knew his name, Komoto. "OH I HATE THAT GUY! That fricken pink mass of slime! He actually tried to get me to join him! He had this crazy elaborate plan and got all pissed off when I tried to arrest him." This, was an outright lie. It had been Bigby who had been the one with the stupid elaborate plan, he had even asked to meet Komoto. But if this alien was ever caught he needed to be sure that his cover story was rock solid, and it would all start now. "Oh, if I had just been a better shot with all those missiles I could have blown him out of the water! But nope, he managed to somehow escape through this cave system. Ugh, I feel so guilty now.... Well at least she will get better. So tell me, I'm rocking all of those artificial organs she has now. Almost an exact match. Can she get drunk? I have always considered what the past time of getting smashed was and now I have a reason to drown my sorrows with something stronger than bottled water and granola bars."
