Yeah, sorry SS, you take too long to post, so I decided I'd start this, even though the RP thread's current arc isn't truly finished, and there's another major arc I have to skip. Lucky for you, this chapter will explain everything I had planned.
Chapter 1: Prologue
Leader's Journal. Date: November the fifth.
I was a fool to not see this. The crumbling of what was once a great organization.
After Basilisk's defeat, we managed to identify Carpe Diem's little run-in with Nand's Psychosis Palm. The Palm had altered his programming, trapping the Carpe we know inside of an inacessible file. When we tried to reroute his systems to retrieve his personality, all hell broke loose. He went on a rampage, attacking everything in sight. Nobody was killed, but a few of us were injured slightly, and there were many damaged facilites.
After Carpe's rampage, a rogue, whom the public referred to as "Sandman", begun spreading propaganda about androids and the Black Hand. Soon, a lot of Hunters blacklisted us. (The Hunter's Guild didn't, though) However, what was to come was far worse.
Eventually, Jay used the propaganda to find us. The Black Hand was whole again. Just as we decided to send a force to attack the propaganda, we learned that there was a nationwide riot against androids. Many were killed, and several more were the killers.
And from here, it only gets worse. The riot spawned many more acts of racism against androids. Soon, the whole of Pioneer 2 hated anroids, and called these seperate riots one incedent: The OPPS incident.
At this point, many groups were after us. We defeated whatever came our way, but it was obvious that we were tired of this. At our weakest, Sandman revealed himself. Apparently, Nand was the one who called himself "Sandman". Unfortunately, he had an ally in Basilisk, and another ally in Kireek, who we thought was long gone. Of course, Kireek got right into it with Silva, but soemthing didn't seem right. Although both had grown a large amount, Kireek was clearly the stronger of the two. Suppressed and cornered, we suffered our first loss in Silva. That day was, to the leaders of the Black Hand, the worst.
To top it all off, Nand and Basilisk managed to caputer me. At that point, the rest of the Black Hand was forced to scatter and hide.
It was terrible. Nand had a D-Cell experiment, one that had enough power to cripple the Principal Government. I was his first test subject. As the days passed after that, Jay had recruited some more members, and managed to inflitrate the lab. Unfortunately, it was too late. Jay and I managed to escape in the lowest point of the Seabed, a place undetectable by radar. However, at that point, neither of us were safe. The D-cells mutated me, turning me into that same monster I saw in my vision so long ago.
Jay was forced to kill me, but as he struck the finishing blow, the remnants of my sanity gathered inside Jay's conciousness. Being inside Jay wasn't my most...pleasant experience, but I had to do what I could to survive.
After finding a new place to regroup, we managed to come in contact with Hagane again. He explained that he was hiding in the Hunter's Guild, which had grown so violent that the Principal Government had been overthown by the Hunters. Now, the law couldn't protect us. Only our wits and wills could do that.
It was chaos. At this point, we had a fraction of our forces, no hope, and no allies. Everyone was against us, and we were running out of places to hide. Fortunately, Hagane knew of a way to transfer my mind into the body of an android. After we tried that, Kireek, Dementia, and Whisper found us, and we were forced to battle them. We were narrowly victorious over them, and my body had suffered severe damage, almost beyond repair.
Just as I was about to make a full recovery, we were attacked by Nand himself, who had a strange new look and power. He managed to detroy my body, forcing me to hide my conciousness inside of Jay once again. We fled.
This time, Hagane could put my conciousness inside of a body of flesh, one that looked almost identical to mine. We tried and succeeded in the process. After some training and regrouping, we managed to find the rest of our members, despite our low numbers.
Confident in our abilities, we launched a counterattack. We managed to succeed in infiltrating Nand's lab once again, but at the core of the lab, with Basilisk was a D-cell-mutated Nand. Basilisk had a difficult time controlling it, so he sealed the lab, escaped, and left us to fight him. Again, we suffered injuries and casualties, but we narrowly emereged victorious, this time finishing Nand for good.
After our victory, we managed to escape the lab, and were fed up with Pioneer 2's chaotic regime. We managed to find in intergalctic spaceship and left for destinations unknown. I'm here on that ship as we speak.
Now, a head count:
Jay: He was the only exceutive leader who never died. Heh, I suppose he dies hard.
EDDIE: He and his forces were caught by Kireek and murdered.
Silva: Shared the same fate as EDDIE.
Aanaki and Razaaki: Tortured to death by Nand. (They were caputred alongside me)
Carpe Diem: Alive, but beyond our help. He's still going on a rampage as we speak, killing everything in sight.
Drake: Drake...we have no idea what happened to him. When we split, he went alone, and we haven't been in contact since. I pray for his safety, as even Ragol has come under tyrranical rule by an Emperor...Mephisto, was it? I just pray that Drake is all right...
Cap: Now one of the executive leaders, he's here with the rest of us, piloting the ship.
JOE: Also one of the executive leaders, she's currently resting in her quarters.
Hagane: Upped to second-in-command of my branch, he's helping Cap pilot the ship.
Ninhongo: One of many murdered by Nand's sick plot at bringing us down. She was murdered right in front of Hagane's eyes...something I imagine is hard for him.
Montague and Elenor: I assume they were killed by Kireek.
Talon, Oujouhime, and Neiya: Captured and killed.
Otohime and Samsara: Mt. Fiji's village was burned to the ground. Nobody survived.
I believe that is everyone. We also have some of Jay's forces with us: A FOnewearl named Meow, and a RAcaseal named Clenze. That would mean that the only survivors of this horrible incident were:
-Myself
-Jay
-Hagane
-Cap
-JOE
-Meow
-Clenze
I just hope that, wherever we go, we are accepted by whoever we find.
I think that's enough for now. I'm tired, and I need some rest. Until next time.

Special thanks to Shiroryuu, who starred Drake in "Sword Of The White Dragon" (which, if you haven't seen it, you have to. Awesome fanfic, and the second arc has already begun, so go check it out!)
Note to SS and Fox-If you want something that involves your characters to happen, please PM me, do NOT post here. This is a fanfic, not a roleplay thread.
The Black Hand lives on!
