Animated Jason, in his phoenix gatchaman outfit, continued to head towards where his scanner built into his helmet said the 2 planes were.  He was going as quietly as he could, going from dark shadow to good hiding place.  Using also some tech built into his helmet to avoid where some were, but keeping weapons handy just in case.

(Quicksilver Vault)

The passage downwards was a gentle downwards sloping ramp. They were dark but he buggy's headlights combined with Stripetail's staff and the spotlight easily ensured that their way downwards clearly lit.

Captain Carson frowned. "Do you think we could be walking into a trap?"

Mr. Bigmouth was looking at his tricorder (loaned to him by Jason). "The planes' transponder signals are coming from below us. However, it seems that magical interference is making it difficult to determine exactly where."

He put the gear away in his messenger bag. "Regardless, onward!"

The dune buggy and sled continued their winding path downwards."

-------------

Dr. Zanasiu's group was confronted with a metal blast door. Drobot's laser volley harmlessly splashed against it. His spinning discs simply lodged themselves in the metal.

"Well, let's see if those test results hold up!" Dr. Zanasiu leapt out of the dune buggy and gave the door a hard kick. Thanks to the intense magic, his strength and durability was enhanced so much that he left a sizable dent in the door. He then turned to Nani. "Since you're a Human like me, your strength should also be enhanced."

Ms. Swimmer simply watched open-mouthed as the scientist left dents in the solid steel door with little more than his feet.

The machine gunner, a lean Iguana, was immune to the magic so all he could do was watch.

Deimos simply scanned for threats.

-------------

(RICMS Spire of Winter)

Dr. Kerzach wiped his hands on a rag and sat down with Nick.

He sprinkled a little pepper on his stirfry. "Anyways, what'd you think of the tavern?"

Its a nice place' Nick said eating from the tray ' its safer than that horrible place Chong turned the cafe into-again.. i'm gonna n need a few days to .. just, well rest and recover from my ordeal.. we just barely escaped from Chong and his goons..
_ nani gave the door a swift kick and put a huge dent into it. tigeress and tigeress punched holes in the door with thier horns after rushing into them.  stitch finally gripped the holes punched in the door,and with great exertion,  tore the door off of its hinges and he tossed it aside ' 3000 times my weight' he grinned ' with this magic it might be 30000 times ' he laughed.' wiow this little guy is strong ' Young Spyro said. ' nice work stitch '  Old spyro said as the alien flexed his muscled proudly.
-
 it very well could be a trap Stripetail replied to Carson ' but its a risk we have to take if we are going to free Lockie and Rainbow. ' the seer lead his group two more flights of stairs, through large open caverns filled with magical writing.' stripetail increased the light his staff was giving of. his power warped the energy in this part of the vault ' he breathed ' we are getting into the stronger defensed portion of the vault.' he said be on your guard everyone..

"Impressive." Sara said at the display of strength.  She loooked through the doorway to see if any enemies were in sight.  

"Be careful.  Never know when enemies may appear." Jason said as he reached into a pocket.  

"Yea, never know when a dirty enemy will pop up and attack you." Black agumon said.  

"Yah." Guilmon said, ready to fight again.  He swallowed the sandwich he was eating.

"Spoke too soon!" Captain Carson exclaimed as a mortar shell slammed into the ground near the dune buggy. The shield kept the shrapnel from harming anyone nearby.

"Take cover!" Mr. Bigmouth shouted as more mortars began to impact the area. He reached inside his bag and threw a smoke grenade to obscure their position. At the same time, humanoid robotic Arkeyan warriors streamed out of doorways.

Captain Carson turned to Stripetail. "Commander, if you can get me five minutes, I may be able to set up a mortar team to take out the enemy mortar teams!"

(OOC - The enemy mortar men are Arkeyan Ultrons )

-------------

Drobot swept the area with his spotlights. All he saw were arcane glyphs gently glowing blue in the intense magical field. "The area appears to be clear."

Ms. Swimmer held up her stick to a glyph. "It looks freshly drawn."

Five minutes? i can do that" stripetaik replied ' Shieldus' he intoned and the mortars impacts against his magical shield sending debris off to the side.. the soldiers likely numbered close to 100. ' this meant they were getting close to the vault. stripetail lit into the arkeyans with a fury, and began smashing them into each other, or throwing them  against the walls. the entire area was lit up from stripetail's magic as he sent blast after blast against the enemy.
_ aphelion was scanning the rest of skylands, it had covered nearly 95% by this point..

The shield was one way so the machine gunner on the dune buggy and the soldiers were able to hose down the area with automatic weapons fire.

Captain Carson returned fire with her rifle.

Mr. Bigmouth opened one of the side cargo holds on the repulsorsled and got out the mortar. Muscling the small artillery piece onto the sled, he got to work assembling it. The mortar in question was a standard 90 mm mortar with a slight enhancement. If the active targeting system was on, a handheld laser designator could be used to aim the weapon and small servomotors would make minute adjustments to compensate for the wind and any other variables. It would still need to be manually loaded and fired though.

the other group progressed down the path, and headed down  a flight of steps. ' sounds from the battle below reached them. ' sounds like the others need a hand' Old Spyro said. ' We need to press on' tigeress replied ' They have Stripetail. They're fine..' come on you lot' lets keep moving ' tiger said as stitch and nani followed behind him.' come on tiger.. have some patience. i woukld think having a kid of your own would teach you that.. 'tiger turned and looked at her. 'what would you know abbout raising a kid? he replied looking at her "i've raised Lilo for years ' Nani said ' raising a kid sister isnt the same as a son or daughter. ' its close enough ' nani replied.
_ stripetail continued providing cover for the others, his paws  moving in and out of gestures..

Jason nodded, "Those forces are no trouble for Stripetail.  The worst they can do si annoy him."

"Yea, let's go on." Guilmon said.  

"if he needs any help you can reach most of you through your rings." Jason said looking head, "We need to be careful ourselves."

"No telling what forces we may encounter." Sara said, thinking of several spells she may find handy to use if a battle started.

"I just hope we get out of here and can get to some food.  That sandwich and bag of chips was good, but not enough after a fight." Blackagumon said.

"And how." Gomamon said.  

"Now gomaman, you shouldn't eat to much really.  You may get a tummy ache." Joe said, still wearing his first aid kit bag he had worn.  He had no telling when it may be needed.  He was glad he had had it when he and the others had been sucked into the digital world.

"Done!" Mr. Bigmouth shouted.

"Let's scrap these automatons!"  Captain Carson shouted.

A mortar shell smashed against the shield.

Mr. Bigmouth aimed the laser designator at one of the Arkeyan Ultrons. The mortar whirred as it aimed itself. Captain Carson opened a hatch in the repulsorsled's platform and dropped a shell into the mortar. The Arkeyan Ultron exploded as the shell struck it.

The defenders were now reduced to a couple dozen.. ' we're almost there' Stripetail said, as he kept casting spells at the defense, and cutting through them like a gust of wind in a field of grass

Walking along Sara found herself thinking about what Dulcy & Samia may be up to at that time.  She guessed safe back on the main ship.  

-----

The animated jason was heading back towards the group, had scouted ahead and send the information he had back so the others would have some knowledge of what lay ahead.  he didn't think it a very good idea to get to far ahead of the others in the group.

The last Arkeyan Ultron was reduced to a pile of scrap metal and the rest of the guards had been disposed of.

"All right, that's it." Mr. Bigmouth swiveled the spotlight at a large door. "And now we have to get through that door."

One of the exoskeleton clad soldiers lifted the the demolition bazooka out of a compartment in the sled and fired. The shockwave rattled everyone through Stripetail's shield but the heavy door was completely torn off its hinges.

"Onward!" Captain Carson cried.

-----------

Drobot's explosive disks smashed through another door as Dr. Zanasiu and Deimos led the way in. They were inside a foyer of sorts.

"Which way?" Deimos asked.

Dr. Zanasiu looked at the repulsorsled's positioning system. "We're just above the other team. We go down!"

The sled and dune buggy wound their way down a set of spiraling ramps.

-

Seeing Tigress & Tiger speed up, Jason and Guilmon with him took to the air, not having much room to fly, though flying would not tire them as fast and they could more easily keep up with running 4 footed beings.  Jason & guilmon picked up the smaller digimon so they could keep up and their partners could focus on running, leaving Joe behind to keep up as best as he could, as well as the animated Jason once they caught up to where he was.

Ironically, the door at the end of the corridor was the weakest of the doors they had encountered. A few explosive darts from Captain Carson reduced it to a pile of scrap metal.

-----------

The explosions distracted all the Arkeyan scientists from their work. One of them dropped Major Lockie's internal radiation sensor, causing the glass tube to shatter.

In a panic, they activated their last ditch defense – Arkeyan defenders, heavily armored and magically shielded infantry bots armed with both a magi-cutter that was shaped to resemble a sword and a pinpoint accurate laser cannon.

----------

"Great! Another metal door!" Dr. Zanasiu shouted.

Drobot launched his disks at it only to find out that the disks sinply embedded themselves in the metal. "It seems that the metal is too soft to trigger my explosive disks.

Ms. Swimmer's staff glowed white hot and she plunged it into the door, only for the door to melt and then resolidify around her staff. She heated it again and pulled the staff out. The molten metal began to drip and it quickly resolidified. "Wait! Heat up the metal and scoop it away while it's still molten!"

"Scoop away molten metal!?" Dr. Zanasiu exclaimed.
