Gear is somewhat taken back by what exactly now stands in front of him. Needless to say the figure standing before his was a bit disconcerting especially with the rage that Gear could see within his eyes.
Gear: Um Dannin do take care please.... Gear says nervously not knowing exactly how to respond. Gear does keep another eye on the shifting portals though. In case they result in a new visitor.

Dannin froze in horror at the sight of Aggron and tried to will words to come out of his mouth but succeeded only keeping his mouth open like a dim witted fool. Behind Dannin, the Etherium golem worked relentlessly gathering the lab's artifice.
At Gear's side, the portal seemed to have lost a majority of it's power and would only spark silvery light that never exceeded the size of a man's hand.
OOC: Seems like it would be hard to communicate with all these humans then. Oh well.
IC: Ignoring the meowing, Aggron sees the hapless Dannin and takes him for a scientist. He leaps onto him, forcing the man to the ground with Aggron on top of him. Aggron's tail whips forward, stopping just above the human's fragile...neck?
Aggron takes a moment to look Dannin up and down. Esper mages almost always replaced fragile parts like necks with etherium. This human hasn't got any etherium in him at all. Something is wrong here...
<You have one chance, and one chance only, before I open your throat. Who are you and what are you doing in this place?>
OOC: Oh Gear understands Common language and with help of his artificial constructs or devices he can make himself understandable. As such...
Gear shifts forms to his larger tiger and begins drawing his artificial mana to his command. Letting lose a low roar Gear gets the things attention just as Gear barrels forward into the lizard thing knocking it aside with his much increased mass. As Gear regains his footing an artificial bunny appears at Gears side to translate....
Gear: I'd suggest that you control yourself or understand that I will. Not completely unaware of what just conspired Gear also checks on Dannin while not breaking his eyes from the assailant Dannin are you Ok
(I have 1x gear available at the moment)

Dannin was stunned and confused on who to answer first. Stumbling over his words he finally told Gear, "I'm a little shocked... But I think I am fine..."
Dannin slowly rose to his feet keeping a wary eye on Aggron and said, "I'm Dannin from House Lat-Nam and I am here accompanying master Gear in investigating these ruins..."
Aggron gets up from where Gear knocked him, but now instead of feeling enraged, he's just confused. <House Lat-Nam? Ruins?>
Aggron looks around more thoroughly at the lab. He sees the disrepair, the dust, and finally the total lack of etherium on Dannin. He takes a deep breath, flushing the adrenaline out of his system and getting out of combat mode.
<Sorry, Dannin, I mistook you for someone else. I've had some...trouble with people in this lab or one like it. If you'd been through what they did to me, you'd have reacted the same way.> He then looks over at the mechanized bunny, and slowly his mind registers what it said. <Is...is there another mage here? Someone controlling this leonin-creature? I thought he was just an Esper experiment, like me...>
Aggron still hasn't registered that Gear's sentient and controlling the bunny.
Dannin looks confused as he glances from Aggron to Gear then says, "Er... that tiger looking... creature... He is... uh... the lead mage on this expedition..."
Dannin is perplexed as he asks, "Where exactly did you come from? A place called Esper...?"
First a tiny human girl, now a cat? The multiverse never fails.
'm intimately familiar with the labs Esper mages use. This appears to be one of them. But...where exactly are we, anyway? I just stepped through a portal and got spat out here. I thought it led to Grixis; that's certainly where the demon I was chasing had the portal connected. But something obviously changed.>
Gear: I suspect so given the fact that this portal's activity began to spike right before he arrived. Although more interestingly is the fact that this demon he spoke of might have been the one I saw as the portal began to flash.

There is a loud thud in the back of the triangular lab that resonates throughout the lab. Following the thud was the steady footfall of what sounded like the walk of a knight in full-plate armor.
Dannin whipped around towards the source of the noise and remarked, "What was that!?"
Aggron has all of his lands from his previous fight in play but none of the spells, creatures, or enchantments that had been in play. They were not able to come with him.
Now that the lights were back on thanks to Gear activating them, the group was now able to see further in the lab. There by the lift they saw an etherium golem marching mechanically back towards an apparatus set up by one of the portals midway down the lab. The construct appeared to be carrying some of the artifice Gear had noted from his first visit...
Gear: Dannin if you wish to save any of that foreign artifice that golem may need to be taken care of. But oddly enough I don't recall it being here in the first place.

Dannin turns around worried and sees the construct with the artifice, and without thinking his actions through, began running at the construct screaming, "Those are priceless artifice meant for our study! You can't take those!"
The construct continued with it's task ignoring Dannin's outburst. That is until Dannin attempted to bar the constructs path by throwing himself towards the artifice being packed up.
Dannin made it halfway before the construct spun at a blindingly fast speed grabbing Dannin by the neck.
"Intruder...?" , hissed the construct as Dannin choked spitting out a plea saying, "... Help..."
