 		OK Quick Summary of whats happened so far.

1)The world is over run by Alien Parasites
2) Thomas is an 18 year old kid that wants to stop the aliens
3) Alice is an 8 year old girl infected by an alien Parasite named Mr Pobo
4) Rockwell is a military guy that wants to do something but no one knows what yet
5) Lex Haku is an alien that wants to kill the Parasites for reasons unknown
6) We talk to the characters through email trying to figure out what (if Anything) we are supposed to do and who to do it to.

Has it been confirmed that Mr. Pobo is actually a parasite as opposed as just an imaginary friend?

I suppose we do not have any thing that proves it conclusively but Mr Pobo KNowing the Alien Word for the scientific name of the Parasites is a pretty strong clue. Not something Alice is likely to know without actual help. Add that to the fact that Mr Pobo only showed up after the attack and it seems pretty likely.

Haku was the one who knew the name, I thought-- not Pobo. Or am I confuzzled again?

It was Haku:
Quote:
Zeraphio

the "scientific name" our race has given the parasites

Mr Pobo has been there since she was bitten but im not so sure he/it is a parasite, or on Lex Haku's side.

This is where we first heard the word Zeraphio (Fencer received a similar email from Alice at about the same time)
Quote:
ALICE:

Quote:
ok thank you. I just hope Brother doesn't overreact.
the word sounds like sir-akki
mr. pobo said that His friend Is a sir-akki

or was it sir-appy...


So while as I mentioned we have no proof or confirmation of what Mr Pobo is I for one believe he is a parasite, now there may be moree to it than that because of one overwhelming question: why is Alice alive? but I am convinced Pobo is a parasite If I am proven wrong at some point so be it.

 		Well, I got another reply.

I'm really starting to get irritated with this PM. He's giving me replies with NO capitalization, no punctuation, and I can't understand WHAT he's saying.

Quote:

Hello again,
I'm sorry to trouble you again, but recently Alice mentioned something about you being a 'sir-akki'? Have you heard of this before, or any word that sounds like it?
Is that where you are from, or what species you are?
Thank you!

Sorry, I didn't catch that-- is 'zeraphio' your name, the parasites' name, or what a Sir-akki is?
--Fencer

lex wrote:
the last two zeraphio is the name we identify the parasite by


I wrote back again:
Quote:
(OOG): Listen, I'd appreciate it if you would try to phrase your replies a bit more clearly. I'm having a hard time understanding you. I know Lex Haku is supposed to be an 'alien' or something, but it's really irritating getting these clues that make no sense. Are you trying to say "The last two. Zeraphio is the name we identify the parasite by", or "The last two zeraphio ARE the name we identify the parasite by"?
Not punctuating/capitalizing properly in your clues or your emails can totally change the meaning of what your saying. Please, please, for the sake of all our sanity, check your grammar Razz
--Fencer


Then I sent him an IG message again, just asking what he meant by 'the last two'.

 		Ok I got new emails responses.

ME:

Quote:
I kept the title and understand your intentions. And while I have translated many characters in your language another example or two would be helpful.

FISH


LEX:

Quote:
don't worry I am preparing to have a new image show up.


ME:

Quote:
Alice,

It is good to hear from you again I was worried when you didn't write yesterday. I don't think your brother will over react he seemed to take it pretty well. How does Mr Pobo talk to his friend? Maybe I could be Mr Pobo's Friend too.

Your Friend

Fish


ALICE:

Quote:
He talks about how when they get here there gonna make me feel all better


So More Parasites are coming and they will cure Alice?

Based on this latest reponse we should all be open to the possiblity that Lex is the bad guy. We know he is not the one in contact with Mr Pobo and has only mentioned helping with the parasites because it suits his needs. It is possible the parasites are here to protect us from LEx's race. (I keep coming back to the fact Alice is still alive 2 yeqars later)

Of Course it is equally possible that the Parasites Really are the bad guys and Alice will feel better because when your dead you dont feel sick.

And then there is Rockwell.... We need more info which is VERY slow in coming.

 		Ok I got a couple of new emails:
Me to Lex:
Quote:
I wish to know more about Rockwell before I meet him, and of the parasites that infect our world. Have they infected other worlds, yours? How many worlds have they gotten to? Why do you fight them? Why earth?

Your friend, Morgan

Lex:
Quote:
Alexander Rockwell
Born:1985
hometown:TAMPA FLORIDA
current residence:Chicago
mother:Maria Rockwell (maiden name: Givern)
father:Octavius Rockwell
bloodtype:O+
gender:male
tattoos: left shoulder is the two letters RX
special needs:none
signature attire:Sunglasses and a long coat

Military rank:Head of the Rx division of the military
weapon of choice: MK18 Mod 0
hair color: black
eye color:hazel
sign:Leo
Living family:None

as for the parasites
they came from our world, their origin was our world
as we began space travel millennia ago the zeraphio(parasites) spread through space rock that had made contact with our crafts.
when on their native planet the parasites are no more then harmless wildlife, yet in the cold of space things can become different.

as for why you are being attacked.
Its posible the parasites sensed sentient life
or it could have been luck of the draw

Me to Alice:
Quote:
Hey Alice! How are you and Mr. Pobo doing today?
I hope you guys are doing well. Do you know anything about Mr. Pobo's friend Mr. Hakki, or Haku (i forget)? Where he's from and stuff?
Have a nice day!
Morgan

Alice:
Quote:
Mr hakki Is kinda funny I can hear him sometimes but never see him.
Mr. pobo says he's a nice man. and wants to help me

So Alice hears two voices, Mr.pobo and Mr.hakki

 		I'm still assuming "Mr. Hakki" is Lex Haku because the first time she mentioned him was when I asked if she'd ever heard of Lex.

This game Lulling?

1) If sir -akki and Mr. Hakki are different people then yes Mr. Hakki is Lex Haku If they are the same people then it is probably not ex Haku. Whether or not they are the same or different, frankly I have lost track.

2) Yes this game is lulling, I havent gotten a new email response in over 48 hours.

ETA: This Email was waiting for me at home:

ME:

Quote:
Alice,

That's good to hear. I want you to feel better, but we think Mr Pobo's Friends may have been the ones to make you sick. Did Mr Pobo say if they were sorry for what happened?

Your Friend,

FISH


ALICE:

Quote:
they said they were sorry about what the sir-akki did. and once they can get here they are going to help me.


I have really lost track of who is who, too many names sound similar.

 		I'm pretty sure that sir-akki = zeriphio(parasites) and Mr. Hakki = Lex Haku.

 		Got some new emails the last couple of days.
I asked Alice where Mr.Hakki was from:
Quote:

he said hes from the sky. so i think he could be a cloud. maybe that's why I never see him.

I forwarded the info on Rockwell to Thomas and he asked where I got it, I told him a friend. Then I asked if there were others like Alice:
Quote:
there are more. yet only a select few actually mention visions, such as sir-akki.
Alice mentioned those things once. that was really it. she asked me what they meant

Nothing really helpful
