Talon of course had to hide most of his global operations. The closest location to Recluse Island was deep in the desert. Here, there are no moles, instead every slave is a scorpion. And they must all answer to their warden, Olga Gigantolofamus. In Talon's absence, Olga keeps the rest of the slaves in line with her currently uncontested brute power. Then, on occasion, she slips away through secret tunnels back to her home village. The desert base is out in the middle of nowhere, in a canyon than few will ever dive into. The red rocks give the facility a feel of having grown out of the Mesa like plants. The T-REX sets down in the landing bay, and Olga awaits in a rigid salute.
The RV automatically rolls out of the belly of the T-REX and opens its doors to allow its passerngers, 27 and Isis, to go free. Then the T-REX takes off for a refuel station.

Isis steps out still holding 27's hand and looks around, she notices the rather overweight olga and looks towards her. "Where is Talon?"

((NPC Olga)) Olga just grunts slightly. "Urgh..." And opens the door. Inside there is....
"Greetings! ^^ I am T-3P0. The best in human relations and protocol. And this is R2-T2, my assistant." "Beep-bop beep" "We are here to assist you in any way. ^^"

Robots. 27 had seen robots before, back on the Ark... they weren't common, but there were a few taking care of maintenance. Of course, there weren't any on the Ark anymore, mostly because 27 had a habit of getting bored and tearing them apart. So needless to say, he was happy to see these two, and he grinned rather widely to show it. "Heheheh..."

Isis looks to both of the robots and gives them a cold stare. "Very well...then assist me, Where is talon?" She then sees 27 looking at them with mischeivious delight and just pats him on the head.

Isis narrowed her eyes slightly and then just let out a short exhale. "Fine....while we wait for his return i wish to restore my energy...if you would, direct me to the nearest place I may acquire some sustainance..."

T-3P0: Oh yes! Right this way!
He leads her to a very nice kitchen, looking totally out of place for Talon. T-3PO dons an apron and starts chittering.
"What would you like to eat?"

Isis follows the robot, gently leading 27 along by the hand like a small child. she looks to T-3P0 as he dresses himself in kitchen wear. "hm.... i would like a few pairs of roast quail with fig sauce and mango salads..." She looks to 27 for a moment and then looks back to the robot. "and a good number of various grilled fish..."

T-3PO is making the requested entree, when Isis's cloak begins talking. "Is....anyone alive out there?"

Isis blinks a bit and then looks down to her cloak holding the collar up a bit. "yes, we're alive..."

"Ah Good! I am too. I trust you've gotten to the desert base then hmm? I'll be joining you shortly. I have some shopping to do first and-" silence for a sec... "Hold on some Hyena just walked into the room..."

The Robot soon after sets down and Talon goes limping inside the base, in terrible condition. His eye, and hand are gone, and one of his legs is bent horribly out of shape. Sinew arrives helping him inside the base. "Honey....I'm home!" Tally comes hopping up and begins leaping on Talon trying to lick him.

Sinew only raised an eyebrow at the... tally.. thing, and followed him inside.
He was -very- impressed.

"Honey...I'm home!" Isis's ear perks slightly. She turns away from her half finished plate and stands up. She glances down to 27 and puts her hand on his head gently. "Stay..." She then gave him a soft pat and walked out towards the flight entrance where she came in to meet with Talon. Upon rounding the corner she saw Talon in his less than appealing condition. She paused for a moment before walking up to him. "I see you had a pleasant trip..."

"Room service was terrible, and it cost me an arm and a leg." T2 and T3 some and take Talon from Sinew, and begin leading Talon off towards a door marked 'Lab Sub-Levels.' "I need to get myself fixed up. Introduce yourselves and get comfortable. We'll have more...'guests' arriving soon."

Sinew gazed around the room in wonder, then nodded to Isis. He found a place to sat down and stretched his legs comfortably.

Isis and the robots left. This meant 27 was all alone. In the kitchen. With food. That he could smell. 27’s fingers twitched a bit, and he grinned rather widely. Needless to say, food supplies were about to lower dramatically, and in record time to boot!

Isis just watched talon hobble off and then turned to the new arrival. She just gave him her usual blank stare as he nodded and sat down. She then turned and started to walk back towards the kitchen area. The hyena was free to follow if he liked, but she still hadn't fully restored her energy. When she got back, she simply sat back where she was before and continued her meal.

Talon was in his lab now, being fitted with new legs. He ALWAYS has spare ones around. His other parts however, were rather special cases. He had a spare extra-eye incase his artificial one got ruined, and that was inserted and fused, then his forearm was replaced with a loading-claw from a box-carrying bot. Then, after the nano-recontructers patched his wounds he was relatively good as new. Talon then stalked over to his main computer to recieve the good news from his T-REX. "This is Lounge-Lizard to T-REX, ready for delivery." "T-REX H3RE. T4ILZ THE F0X IS IN C4PTIVIT7. M3T4L S0NIC IS IN C4PTIVIT7." "Most excellent. Inbound ETA?" "FIV3 MINUTES. I HAVE TR4NSMITT3D A PR3LIMINAR7 SC4N OF X-T3RI0R BLU PR1NTZ." Schematics for the damaged Metal Sonic's frame downloaded and appeared on screen. "What a magnificent design. I can use this. I'll be in the genetics lab, drop them in that chute." Talon Rockets down another 5 sublevels as Tails and Metal go tumbling down a chute into a prison cell. Talon steps into the room. "Congratulations, Miles, on your greatest lifetime achievement." Talon pushes a button and the Cell Door unlocks.

Tails, who had a somewhat nerve-wracking journey (constantly worried that Metal was going to wake up and make mincemeat out of him in the enclosed space), picked himself up. His heart was still pounding. "If shooting's someone is my greatest lifetime achievement, the rest of my life sounds like it's going to be really horrible," he said laying his ears back.

Sinew watched Isis. She was quiet and resourful, he liked that. And he was also hungry now.
He stood and paced towards the kitchen.

"Do not worry about that. It was a non-lethat shot from that firearm, and you saved a good number of people, ha ha!" Talon grinned. "You certainly showed that robot who's boss, hmm? Well I'm going to go wake him up and see if he and I can't talk first. Wait here if you would please." Talon walks into another room. Metal has already been moved inside an alcove here, and robots are darting here and there scanning every square inch of him, inside and out. Then, once they finish the scan they begin repairing. Talon walks over to a console and lowers one of his bio-mutant base bodies. "This is going to be interesting to see...can metal become organic..."

Tails sighed out and inspected the gun again. He itched to take it apart and examine it's working components. Idly he flipped the goggles on and looked around, seeing what he could see.

The kitchen was a mess when Isis returned, and 27 barely looked up when she came in- he was far too busy finding what else was edible, other then the container of flour he found (and promptly got everywhere, coating most things in a fine powder). At the moment, he was helping himself to an entire jar of jam, plain.

When isis came back she noticed 27 face first in the jar of jam, resembling much like a small child trying to feed themselves. She simply lets out a small chuckle as she sat back down to her meal, Oddly enough he had left her portions alone, either out of courtesy or just disintrest. She simply continued eating leaving 27 to his dessert, dispite the mess he was making. Besides, messes like these were what Talon had maintenance droids for anyways.

It didn't take long for the project to be complete. The base body matched Metal's perfectly. Now that it was complete it looked just like an organic Metal. The project was unstable however, but it was still magnificient. He began taking notes of its design, being much more familiar with organics than robots, and also began collecting AI data. "Wake up, Metal!" Talon began shaking him.

One might think that yelling at and shaking a robot would be a futile effort to 'waking' one up. But then consider the concept of kicking an electrical device to make it work. Blip. Metal's darkened eyes lit up and crackled feintly with static electricity, then immediately widened with disorientation at being shook. His eyes darted to the one grabbing him and began to glow with shock and rage. "LET ME GO YOUG--oo.. ooOOYYYAAAAAUGHCHOO!"

Sinew arrived at the spectable and watched the scene with interest.
That... hedgehog.. thing.. was oddlooking. And in the food. Sinew's stomach growled quietly. He looked at it unhappily.

27 paused to stare at the newcomer. Honestly, how many people has he met in the last day or so? More to last a lifetime... he shrugged anyway and held out the jar of jam and shook it a bit, in a 'want some'? type of gesture.
