"Beautiful." She said mesmerized. More screens with new numbers popped up, rolling across them. "It works." She sank to the ground, laughing as happy tears fell from her weary eyes. "It works!"
"Congratulations." Val said. Mother was too wrapped up in her own success to notice the lack of heartfelt-ness in her praise. A few others began to clap and cheer.
She smiled wide leaning into the microphone again. "Thank you..."
The room started to tremble, knocking a few to their knees. The slight aftershock did nothing to diminish her mood. Down in the pit, behind the mostly destroyed walls glimpses of the blue secondary barrier. Many of the cameras, with the exception of the one looking directly down at them were now crooked or covered.

"You're welcome..."He says peeling himself out of the fllor and watching it squash outward as he pulled up. With each step he made a dent in the floor until he recorected his density.
"So Mother....with this proving us both fair and resonable business men I'd like to make another business proposal...one that those who acompanied me here might also want to listen to....."

"Yes, yes what is it?" She said speaking so fast her words became muddled.
Val raised an eyebrow, the only indication she was even paying attention. Craig and Xanthus snickered, preparing for the proposal they had overheard.

King smiles.
"I'm trying to assemble a following of people with a understanding and support of my goal.....Val thats where you and your men come in.....but in assembling a large group of people I need to keep them well supplied with technology that the police and government wont release to the public, since I don't know anyone to get me pre-made military grade tech....I'm turning to you, will you keep me following supplied with technology, I have sufficent funds.....Craig, give Mother that wrap of money you took off the ground......"King says not moving, it didn't even seem like he was breathing.

She chortled, wiping her eyes. "My tech is ten times better than that of those military goons."
He turned to Val, she nodded motioning him forward. Mother turned to them expectantly, holding open an outstretched hand. He shuffled forward, unhappily he dropping the now crinkled wad in her palm.
"All of it, Craig." Val demanded wearily.
He winced but dug in his pocket once again, muttering darkly to himself. Several more bills were placed on top. He was about to sulk away when Val cleared her throat.
"Alright!" He said impatiently forking over the last of the money.
Mother looked slightly entertained by this exchange, but she hid it well. She thumbed through the money, with each bill her eyes got a little wider. "I can assure you, your business is welcome." She said with a gleaming smile. "You don't look so good darling, come up here and lets discuss this further."

King holds his hands out in front of him, as Val feels a hard tug on her sleeve, she watches a small black marble fall from the creases of her sleeve and onto the floor. Slamming his hands against his chest the little black marble takes the form of King as he takes the form of the marble, and then dissapeares. The black film covering Kings form peels away as he shakes his body like a dog shedding water.
"That's the largest pocket of vaccum space I've created in a.........ever actualy..."He says taking a exausted breath.
Pulling a black marble from his pocket he watches it grow into the black bag filled with money, Slowly he holds the bag and his hand out to mother.
"This bag contains roughly around two thousand dollars and along with seven other bags it makes up a total of sixty mill.......so do we have a definative aggreement?"He asks offering the bag and a hand shake.

"Ah, I'll manage somehow. I still think your getting the better half of the deal." She said in good humor, taking his hand in a surprisingly strong shake. One of the women behind her stepped forward to take the bag.
"Now then! If your looking for good weapons, come with me. And anything else, anything at all, don't hesitate to ask!" She said, practically bouncing as she led them from the room. "Converter is yours of course, promises are promises and now that you have given me this wonderful donation I cant help but feel that I should show you some of my more, substantial inventions. Not that they aren't all good but darling had I known you had the.. funds that you do I wouldn't have wasted your time with the childs toys. Come! I must show you my newest collections..."
Val started to tune her out until her voice just turned into a faint buzzing... not exactly irritating but not entirely pleasant. "So what exactly is your goal King?" She asked, keeping in stride with him. She spoke once again barely above a whisper so as not to interrupt Mother's doting disquisition on the quality of her work.

"You've probably heard of the outside world.....I don't mean New Eden either.....I mean the world outside those walls and doors....if the government had it's way we'd all be just as ignorant and basis to it as the people of the Upper city."He says in a low tone but making no attempt to hide what he was saying.
"I want to leave this city, and start new lifes for both man and majin outside New Eden...."
What King was speaking of was a strick taboo in the Underworld, and the numbed minds of the upper city didn't even think of the outside world let alone talk about it. If a enforcment officer had heard them speaking about this they'd all be thrown in the clink now warrants, not probable cause, just one day they'd dissapeare.
"But we'll talk about this later, lets finish here and we can talk later at my place..."He says cutting off the conversation and focusing back in on Mother.

((Hey, AF! ;D))
"I can't say I've heard many propose such a thing." Val said "But I do know there aren't many above who would welcome such an idea."
There was a loud bang as a door was thrown open. The room was decorated just as extravagantly as the first inner chamber, but these embellishment seemed more permanent. All of them were kept behind some barriers of solid.. something. Not clear as glass but instead a pellucid green. Mother fiddled with one of her rings causing them all to dissolve. "Take your pick." She said waving around the room. "Just be careful! We don't want any harm coming to these precious creations..."
"AH!" She exclaimed, thrusting a finger in the air. Everyone jumped turning quickly. "Let me show you my favorite."
They all ambled to the center of the room where she picked up a thick ring, wide enough to be a bracelet. She grabbed Craig by the arm and shoved it onto his wrist.
"Hey! Whats the big idea?"
"It responds to elevated levels of anxiety." She said. Then she punched him in the face.
"OW! What the f*ck lady!!!" He shouted, his face going red. The bracelet expanded over his entire forearm. It was shiny, almost fluid like liquid. It quivered like that for a moment before spikes began to crop up all over it.
"Hmm. You don't have much of an imagination." She commented dryly.
He growled and the silver instantaneously extended over his shoulder.
"Very good armor and weapon. Comes in black or orange too." She smiled apparently oblivious to the struggle occurring behind her as Xanthus tried to keep him from throttling her.
"Whats this?" She asked lifting a small discus shaped contraption.
"A chakram. With a few minor adjustments."
Several blades folded out from the sides, along with strange sounds and light. It was so startling Val almost dropped it.
"Really, feel free to browse..." She said waving an arm around the room.
((Obama FTW!!!! K, had to get that outta my system. Carry on.))

((Um I don't know....everythings looks good I was just saying a Majin character would be easier to get into the story.....if you need any help thinking of a power I"m here to help but if you want to leave it as a human thats just as good.))
King raises his eyebrow looking at the strange liquid armor.
"I'm not looking for anything to extravagant, though these are truely works of genious here Madam, I simply need some weapons and armor that can be produced quickly and in a quantity to supply a small army...because personaly weapons I have no real intrest in...."He says raising his arm, they all watch his tattoo spasmde, and actualy hissed, leaping from his skin at times as it wriggled.

"Dude that's freaky." Xanthus said almost letting go of Craig. Val chuckled under her breath.
"I see! Well in that case I have other armors, nearly as durable but not quite as flexible." She moved over to a large case pulling out one of the drawers. Inside were a set of folded black squares. She lifted one out, holding it for them all to see. "These are a easier to produce."
"Uh... how do I get this thing off?" He wondered out loud, frantically trying to rub the silver off his arm. This only served to make it spread farther.
"Relax." She said dismissively. Then she turned back to King. "How many will you need?"
"There are 17 of us but we'll need extra." Val answered.
"Yes, then this will do. Each one is designed to accommodate to the individual wearing it. It provides strength, speed and endurance to the wearer. Practically impenetrable protection to the body, except for the head but that's what the helmets are for." She said motioning to the shelf full holding what looked like military grade helmets and visors. "The amount of damage it can take is limited so don't let your opponent get to many shots in. See these?" She pointed to the small circular appendage on the nape of the neck on the suit. "Too many impacts will break the cap, which powers the suit, so give it some time to recover."
"If they're all programed to the same frequency you connect to each other freely, and see where others are using this." She handed her a disc shaped device.
"Ah, and as far as weapons go..." She scanned over the room, in deep thought.
"I'm serious, it won't come off..." Craig whined, practically his whole body engulfed.
Val rolled her eyes. "Honestly..."

"Don't worry I don't plan on keeping anyone in any fire fight for to long....."King says looking at Graig. Walking over to him he places a ahnd on his shoulder and smiles. Tightly gripping the base of his neck he presses hard in a chennel running up Craigs neck while sqeesing another channel that ran down his shoulder. Criags face turned blue and before he could get out 'aaah' he passes out on the floor.
"Good job Craig..."King says turning back to them."Sorry he was making me unconfortable...."He finishes saying with a sigh.
"So mother you where saying something about weapons....."
