In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

Merlin shook his head sadly. "I'm sorry, but while the shell may remain, a lot can happen in 1000 years... Your vision magic shows you what you remember, not what is necessarily actual."
Merlin sighed. Yes, Jason's laboratory may have still been there, but the world itself had changed so many times since he was last here. It wasn't anything inside of Merlin's control.
"you know of the heartless, yes? well, they are perfectly able to appear wherever they want within the city, it is just a matter of how strong they are, or how nimble they are- but the system will remove them eventually. Also, any other anomalies, are usually smoothed out by the system. For instance, this world has changed hands at least twenty times in the last five hundred years. Each time the exchange was made, every secret was attempted to be uncovered."
Merlin stroked his beard, thinking. He pondered the passage of time, and how the events of the past would have effected the city. He pondered how Malefecent and her conquest of the city alone would have probably destroyed that laboratory and utilized it for her own purposes.
"Jason, I believe that your laboratory may have been overrun about two hundred years ago, during a power struggle. The subsequent change of power led to an unbalance in the world's energy, which put this world into stressful times for about one hundred and fifty years, where a man named Ansem the Wise took over. Much of your laboratory may in fact be within the hulk of that castle over there-" Merlin pointed to the towering husk of Ansem's Castle. "In the lower levels, where their experiments on the hearts of men unleashed the current Heartless and Nobody problems." Merlin cleared his throat, looking at the castle, thinking.
He slowly turned back to look at Jason. "If you'd like, I can direct you to a young man who knows the castle well enough to probably get you all the way down into the computer room, which would bring you to Tron. From there, I'm sure you would be able to work something out..."

Jason nodded, not truly believing what Merlin said about his Lab. He knew a lot about the constant changes of power in this city and how things changed a lot. But the defenses that he had put into place was something that Jason felt would be able to stand up to that. He just hoped that if things really had changed, that two things would remain. The twin boys that he had in tubes were still there in complete stasis, and that his research disk was still there. He kept all notes on it and would easily be able to rebuild his lab if he could get that disk. He could even donate some of his research to the city to allow for more study on the heartless and nobodies from his past experiance with them.
Jason continued to listen as he spoke of someone that would be able to help him get to speak with Tron. He nodded and said "Very well, take me to him if you don't mind. Even if what you said about my lab is true, I still need to see for myself. But I do not believe that it is gone, as you said. I believe that it still exists in this city, and that is what I will continue to think until I see it myself."[/color] He said, waiting to see what this person was that Merlin was talking about. Clearly there was someone that he felt would help, but Jason did not know. He looked to Makoto and said "I fear for what Merlin said and would hate for what he said to be true. For that reason, Here..."[/color] He said, pulling out a bag. "This should have enough Munny for you to purchase one. Go to this man, he can sell it to you."[/color] He said, showing her a picture of a man in his crystal ball. If what Merlin said was true, then he wouldn't have the spare Gummi Ship that he could give to her. So this would have to work.

(Sorry for taking so long to post!) ===================== Makoto shook her head to head to the sides when Jason prompted the bag to her. Lifting her lips, she prepared to respond but found herself quieting down and taking detail in the image she was shown. Carefully observing the mans features before raising her head towards Jason.
"You can thank me for stalling you here long enough for Merlin to arrive later. Let's focus on reverting you to a human form for now. Space Travel can Wait"
She turned towards Merlin, "Where exactly is the Castle? I don't think I've ever seen it Merlin."

[Sorry. But more plot for Jason awaits. He is not ready to be human just yet, so I'm going to be leaving this thread. Whether you guys continue is up to you.]
Jason continued waiting for a response to the question that was asked by Merlin. But as he stood there waiting, a sudden surge passed through him. Someone's scent was there that he hadn't sensed since the Hades Cup. It was an old friend, but there was something different... Something had changed in him, and Jason knew that he had to get to the bottom of it. As much as he hated postponing his possibility at becoming a human again, he had to act on this now before it got too late.
Taking a step back, Jason threw the bag of munny toward Makoto and said "I do apologize, but there is something else that requires my attention first. Again, you have the munny and the image of the man to go to for your gummi ship if you still wish. If not, use the munny for something else. Merlin, thank you for your assistance. I hope we may meet again."[/color] He then held his hand out and created a dark portal. It wasn't too far away, but he had to act now. He quickly stepped through the portal and left the area, wondering just what could have changed in his long lost friend.
