The Escapist Avatar Adventure: An Open RP (Now Re-Opened!)

Diablo1099_v1legacy · Jan 14, 2013

Viscus : Digital Nightmare
Notice: Sorry if I used them out of character and other mistakes, just wanted to wrap this up while I was online
The trio of support programs, the Firewall, the countless other defences, it didn't matter, Viscus had won the second Dimitri used that password.
Upon seeing the programs attempt to attack, he causally selected "Missile Swarm" on his weapons list.
A single burst of homing explosive rockets was all it took, 3 for each program, they were incinerate before they even reached him.

Back with his targets, Dimitri and Vermillion reached their escape route and in time too.
Viscus was within visual range as the pair began to upload themselves onto the drop pod as it was being loaded with supplies.
Tense seconds passed as Viscus took his time, calmly deleting all the defences between him and his objective.
3 barriers left to mark and Viscus was cutting though with his Sword.
[color=3897E0]

Code:

"Ms. Vermilion, I do highly believe we should hurry as our opposite is nearing..."

[/color] Dimitri said with both panic and impeccable manners.
"I am hurrying, pod is loading..." Vermillion answered as Viscus reached the 4th Barrier.
It was then she realised something, the pod request was already sent, By Viscus.
"....What in the name...He ordered this pod!" She exclaimed to Dimitri as another barrier fell.
[color=3897E0]

Code:

"He must have planned to send it after we were deleted. Now, may we please leave? My calculations state Viscus's ETA is under 15 seconds!"

[/color]
2rd Barrier was down as Vermillion began to set up an attachment for them to escape, causing a digital drop pod to appear next to them, about the size of a small phone box on its side.
"It's open! Get in!"
[color=3897E0]

Code:

"But the file size is only for one! It's far too-"

[/color]

The last one was down as Viscus was now in the room, staring right at them, sword drawn.
"LETS JUST GO!" she yelled, clearly this wasn't going to be one of those sappy "There is only room for one" moments.
And thus, the pair forced themselves in, moving around and squirming as Viscus came closer and closer into stabbing distance.
Dimitri tried to close the door, but it wouldn't close with the two of them in it.
[color=3897E0]

Code:

"Oh dear, this is most unpleasant!"

[/color] He said as Viscus was right in front of of him, about to stab him.
So he did what anyone would have done: suck it in.
Taking a deep breath before trying to close the door again, he succeeded and the sword hit harmlessly off the glass of the Pod.
Viscus glared at the pair of AI's squeezed together though the window of the pod.
He did not look happy about this outcome.

Code:

Tajuh rolled a 16 on the resisting of Allure, and he had a small amount of help somehow...

Not only did Tajuh brush off the Allure, he brushed it off with an exceptional amount of ease. Ella couldn't quite understand why, though. "Ella, each man has stuff of their own that they keep to themselves. And excuse me for cutting you off on your father, but there's more to him than you see."

It was then that the Succubus ran off and Tajuh saw Mark again. "She's smart, but she'll get a lot better when she learns to see beyond the surface. Agreed, Mark?"

[hr]

Meanwhile, when Ella got over to Caim, the little girl next to Caim felt off to the succubus. It was clear that she had just avoided death, but there was something slightly off with how she slept.

Viscus : Digital Nightmare

As Dimitri and Vermilion watched their attacker stare at them with utmost loathing, Dimitri couldn't help but grin with joy. Doing his best to not crush Vermilion as they were slowly teleporting away, he said, [color=3897E0]

Code:

"We did it! Well, you did it... You really are something, Ms. Vermilion. I must thank you for coming to my aid. You could have easily allowed me to stay in the pickle I fell into..."

[/color]

It was funny how well the Butler could maintain an unblemished look despite having gone to hell and back. Even his hat sat perfectly on his head. It was an interesting contrast to the very emotional construct, especially when his face lit up about piloting the pod. He said something about homing in on their home signal (The Tablet) and how they could use it to drop the pod that way.

Drop Group #2: Caim | Devon | Kalastryn | Kurumu | Kyre | Mark | Melethia | Puce | Rugal | Tajuh | Teri

Caim eyed the succubus with confusion as he had no idea why the woman would keep approaching him. However, he wouldn't be too standoffish; as she had been generous for a woman who had fought his copy. He gave a small nod to the succubus and began to practice sword movements with the False!Heirloom.. Huh, that was a decent enough name. Caim decided to file that away as a good name for the new sword, and began hacking at the tree he was practicing on.

As he did so, His PDA called out,

Code:

"Just make sure your out of my way. Don't want a stray sword stroke to be the cause of your death, now do you?"

A few more sword strokes, and Caim asked,

Code:

"So, what brings you here? I'm not really a conversationalist, if you couldn't tell already..."

Drop Group #4: Aftan | Altea | Akane | Cadolbolg | Gabrielle | Ton Ton

Ton Ton laughed as Cadolbolg sped ahead of them; [color=15650D]"Hey, wait up!"[/color]

Drop Group #1: Angelus | Gabrielle | Jake

As Angelus listened to Jake's song, she could have sworn she heard a voice in her mind; one that resembled something that she did not think existed in this world...

"What on earth..? Pact partners here? That shouldn't be possible..."

Diablo1099_v1legacy · Jan 14, 2013

Viscus : Digital Nightmare
Viscus watched as the pair escaped with their code un-assimilated.
And he saw it was good.
Had he really wanted to kill him, it would have been just a matter of using a compete Purge to flush Dimitri off followed by a hail of Digital Lead.
What Dimitri will do, telling the group of "Rugal's" horrible crimes, just ensured him the Leadership of AIM and the Cartel.
Dimitri tells the team and the team would revolt, there would be a 95% chance they would kill Rugal.
And who could possibly replace him? Who was second in command of the entire Cartel?
And all it took was a little creative interpretation of the Safeties Rugal had installed.
The only thing that remained now was whether or not to explain to Dimitri he just got him promoted.
So Viscus took off his helmet and returned to his post overseeing the AIM attacks, smirking as he did.

Sav | Klaara

"Uh, we don't really drink," Sav answered, "at least it would be best not to let any alcohol grace the presence of this homestead."

He shook his head, the rustle of straw gave such evidence, "I don't know what to say. Still catching up on everything that happened while I was gone."

---

Armageddon

"I appreciate your cooperation Director," Armageddon bowed swiftly to the old man, "and be confident in the knowledge that I am here on my own terms. The Chaos Servants do not wish any harm to this school nor it's students."

With that Armageddon placed the filed inside his black chestpiece and pushed open the door to the Yokai Newspaper Club without knocking.

A small witch, a pink haired vampire, a blue haired Succubus, and a mauve haired snowwoman. A strange group indeed. Armageddon bowed deeply and placed a gloved hand over his chest, Armageddon's Japanese was perfect and fluent. Yet there was something inherently off about the way he spoke, his voice almost seemed to be modulated, holding it's own echo.

He brought himself back up to his full posture again and ran a gloved hand through his dark black hair.

Kyre | Kurumu | Puce

"Well," Kyre said playfully as she turned her head to look up at Kurumu. For the first time she noticed the Succubus' features, her blue hair and purple eyes. Her fair white unblemished skin, and her painted nails, "what I want... I will now take!"

Kyre leaned in as if to kiss her, and then promptly fell her lips to Kurumu's neck. The young anti-mage bit down on the Succubus' skin and tore a small opening before beginning to drink a little of her blood. That sweetness she remembered from so long ago, hidden from somewhere deep within her mind, from some long forgotten dream.

And then Kyre coughed, the blood burnt her throat and stomach. Her mouth felt as if it were aflame. She fell back off of Kurumu and onto the floor, her small cough had developed into a hacking , almost choking, series of heavy expulsions. "[sub]What... what's going *cough* on...?[/sub]" Blood came dribbling out of the Anti-Mage's mouth, deep red, almost black. And definitely in larger volume than the little that Kyre had swallowed beforehand.

She never stopped choking, her face reddened and tears streamed down her face. Both of her hands gripped her throat tightly as she vomited more of her own blood onto the forest floor.

Kyre had tried demon blood somewhere before hand't she? With about the same results. Yet she yearned for the sweet drink she had in that long lost dream, cradled against Kurumu's body in some lost stone dungeon.

Digital ~~Nightmare~~ VICTORY!

The ride down was easy enough, with Dimitri and Vermilion working double time to make sure the pod landed properly in the coordinates they had homed in on... Homing in on being tracking the Tablet the duo lived in. As they made their descent, Dimitri and Vermilion realized something was wrong. They had forgotten to take in account the weather conditions outside, and that was beginning to throw off their descent. As opposed to being slow and calm; the fierce storm was buffeting them in the air; and causing the pod to fall at a faster rate than normal... And was heading straight towards Teri's Tablet.

Devon | Rugal | Teri

Teri was still quietly looking through DnD spell listings when she saw a message appear in the top left corner of her screen. With a curious tap of the icon, a recording (as well as a textual transcript) of the following appeared:

Code:

Recipient: Teri Gravel, Level 4 Cleric
Subject: Re: Supply Drop
Body: Request number 4675636B20596F75 for supply drop has been Approved. ETA for arrival is 1 minute. Please remain clear from the package landing site, or you may suffer from the following: Broken bones, ruptured lungs, minor discomfort, nausea...

Viscus' voice continued to list of different consequences as Teri looked at the Tablet with confusion. That was when a shadow passed overhead, and Teri's eyes widened when she realized what was going on.

[color=0E59E4]

Code:

"Oh Shit. RUN!"

[/color]

Luckily, the warning came in time, and the trio were able to jump out of the way before the pod landed.

Naturally, this was when the recording ended with,

Code:

"skin grafts, and death. We hope you have a nice day."

A few minutes passed between the trio; and Teri found a new message appearing on her computer, to which she opened and found the two AIs stumble out. With them were a few video files, which were labeled, "Watch with headphones, muted, or when alone."

Teri was more than happy to see her AI (and his lady friend) doing well, but was confused about the circumstances about what was going on. As Rugal and Devon began to examine the pod, Teri quietly played the first video. It wasn't pretty, to say the least; as it showed what little information about AIM that was on Dimitri's and Vermilion's RAM. Soldiers fighting, dying, being attacked by Bruiser... It was a nasty sight for any; and Teri could only guess that the other two files would be worse. She wandered away silently as her AI began to show her more horrors of the AIM and who was involved with it.

Diablo1099_v1legacy · Jan 14, 2013

Rugal
Rugal was half-asleep at the base of a tree when Teri's warning came in.
He glanced up, saw the drop pod coming in and instantly reacted, rolling out of the way as the Pod crashed into the tree he was resting on.
"Jesus Christ!!" He exclaimed at Viscus uncharastically bad aim.
"....Everyone okay?!" He shouted as the dust settled, receiving a few nods as a result.
While he was un-happy about the delivery, he was happy that Viscus could deliver the goods and went to open the pod, finding a massive pile of supplies, essential and non-essential.
Like fine wine for instance.

Bruiser Video
Teri watched a video with Bruiser on the thumbnail labelled "ZOMG! LLET BOM BOMM!".
It consisted of Bruiser leading an attack on a office building during rush hour traffic from a nearby roof:
"-So we blow the thing up basically.....any questions?.....No?.....Good. Boomstick please..." He ordered as he was handed a RPG and pointed at the building.
The camera shook from the vent on the RPG, but what Teri could see the entire building fell on a crowded street, killing many who were not even targets.
"......Think I shoulda used a bigger gun?...." He asked his men.

*Jump cut* To another video of attacking a nearby base from a VTOL
"-Why not? I'm only a few more kills from levelling up! and by god I'm going to get them! LETS ROCK PEOPLE!" He shouted at the camera before jumping out with a LMG and started mowing people down Rambo style, his manly screams soon giving way to a massive cheer.
He began to glow on camera

*Jump Cut* to a locker room afterwards, Bruiser was showing off in the mirror using the Video camera in place of a photo one.
"-And thats how you get abs like THESE! I mean, LOOK at this shit man! I could grate metal with these!........."
He appeared to be deep in thought....

*Jump-cut* to several minutes later after testing his theory on one of the lockers by humping it.
There was a dent but little
"-But in my defence....This is one of those space alloy thingys. Not even a chainsaw could tear them.....
....
....So to conclude, I'm awesome, Rate 5, ladies post numbers in the comments and stay tuned! BRUISER IS BACK MOTHERFUCKERS! WOOOOO-"
End

bluerocker · Jan 14, 2013

"BRUISER IS BACK MOTHERFUCKERS! WOOOOO-""

Teri dropped the Tablet in horror after the video feed ended, and slowly backed away from it.
[color=0E59E4]

Code:

"No. No no nonononono. No way. This isn't true. It can't be this soon!"

[/color]

She could hear Dimitri and Vermilion begging their lady to grab their apparatus again, but found that Teri was not to be moved. Instead, she found herself braced against a tree as she voided what was left of the contents in her stomach. After that, she only shook in horror as she began to dry heave, the coughing noises sounding akin to a cat with a hairball. Clutching her sides, she shook as she slowly slid against the clean side of her tree, still staring at the Tablet. Her audio from the thing screeched in her anguish as she shrieked at the AIs,

[color=0E59E4]

Code:

"WHY DID YOU SHOW ME THAT?! WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE FILES?!"

[/color]

Dimitri's voice remained calm as ever when he replied, [color=3897E0]

Code:

"To help your understanding of the situation you are in."

[/color]

Teri looked at the Tablet in confusion, and slowly walked to it, [color=0E59E4]

Code:

"What?! Help my understanding?! Obviously, you got something fucked up from Viscus, didn't you?! I know he has his digital dick so far up that corporations ass that-"

[/color]

[color=3897E0]

Code:

"There's no need for such language to get the point across, Madam."

[/color]

[color=0E59E4]

Code:

"I can use what language I want! I know Viscus is involved in that stuff; and it's terrible, but I don't know if we can-"

[/color]

[color=3897E0]

Code:

"And who is involved with Viscus, Madam? You are forgetting a key detail here..."

[/color]

Teri was shocked that her computer not once, but twice interrupted her train of thought, and was about to yell at him some more about his lack of manners when another file appeared. It was a simple textual file, but the obvious was laid before her. The Bernstein Cartel had AIM in it's pockets for funding. The girl was struck dumb at the information presented to her, and found that words weren't forming properly in her mind for that moment. That was when Dimitri's voice rang out again, [color=3897E0]

Code:

"You know what must be done."

[/color]

Teri shook her head numbly, [color=0E59E4]

Code:

"No, there has to be a mistake! He wouldn't-!"

[/color]

[color=3897E0]

Code:

"I have scanned the databases. His previous actions, including those up to this point are nothing short of reprehensible. You must report what he has done. There is no shred of evidence to the contrary."

[/color]

Before Teri could protest, Dimitri spoke once more, [color=3897E0]

Code:

"I understand you have a fondness for this fiend, so I shall allow you to make the final decision. However, I do hope that these things will point you in the right direction..."

[/color]

The AI's feed of the room went silent, and Teri found herself alone in the woods again.

Diablo1099_v1legacy · Jan 14, 2013

Viscus
....
....
....
....Exactly 2 minutes :43 seconds had passed since the AI's escaped, more then enough time for Dimitri to present the videos he had collected to Teri.
Viscus had won, time to rub it in and focus on setting AIM up to defeat Tomoya and herald the world he had spend his entire existence working towards.
So he summoned up a Camera and began recording:

Code:

"....Greetings. If you are watching this, then Rugal Bernstein is dead. Killed in action during a quest I can only describe as flawed from the very beginning. He willingly walked into the heart of those who wish to prevent us from attaining our goals. They tried to corrupt him against his ideals and mostly succeeded, Clearly the man failed to live up to the legend. He thought he could betray us and get away with it, to use Cartel Resources to fund our rivals, to aid them in their affairs. As long as the smallest byte of my being exists, I will not allow such misconduct.

Code:

Effective immediately, by Order of the Chain of Command, I, The Viscus Mk3., am now the CEO and Commander of the Bernstein Cartel. All business will be done though me and me alone. My superior programming and being will ensure that above all, the Cartel will be able to tend to the needs of all its customers as well as expand and thrive.

Code:

I will update you all with changes in management within the next 24 hours. For now, your orders remain unchanged until I deem them fit to be changed. Ours is a world of War and we are it's keepers. Like many things in this life, our sole goal is profit above else.

Code:

We are VISCUS.
We are Legion, for we are many.
We will ensure the balance of the world remains in favour for the highest bidder.
And for the Highest Bidder only.
Choose the world you want to live in....or let someone else control you..."

He finished the Video and let another countdown, timing it to when he calculated the group would return.
The message of the Change in command was merely a insult, he didn't mean anything he said, it was all a ruse for his plan.
A plan Dimitri allowed him to get away with....

Rugal
Rugal sorted though the supplies, grabbing a few wine glasses and a nice thick sleeping bag to rest in.
It was around then that he noticed Teri was gone.
"...mmm...Strange...Devon, Find Teri, She might want some of the supplies Viscus sent us." He suggested as he took in the smell of fine wine.

NotYetForsaken · Jan 15, 2013

Armageddon

An orange flame appeared in his hand, crackling and burning with strange design. There was a deep and resounding aura that filled the room. Darkness beyond blackest pitch, a shadowy fire that rose above tumult-waves in an endless sea of Chaos.

Armageddon laughed, a deep and terrifying chortle not unlike the belching flames of a furnace.

---

Kyre | Puce | Kurumu

"NO!" Kyre screamed, slapping Puce's hand away from her. Suddenly the magic in the area froze solid, "Don't you dare take her out of me, don't you dare take my love out of me." She heaved again, throwing more of her bile and blood on the forest floor. Then suddenly the magic returned to the area, the forest faced re-corruption, and the darkness around Kyre vanished.

The light around her seemed to stop working, her shadow disappeared, and she collapsed onto the floor. Her null-magic field had just collapsed in on itself, and left it's master as little more than a broken heap of flesh. Yet still, through her bangs, the emerald green of her eyes shone brightly. "[sub]Human... don't you dare touch me again. Don't you dare try and take her away from me you filthy beast...[/sub]" For a moment, ever so brief, Kyre had tasted the sweetness of Kurumu's blood. And she clung to that taste because it tingled the back of her mind. It reminded her why she loved this woman so much.

bluerocker · Jan 15, 2013

Drop Group #1: | Aftan | Altea | Akane | Angelus | Cadolbolg | Gabrielle | Jake | Ton Ton

Angelus, under normal circumstances, would have admonished her son for wantonly making such a powerful contract, but when Ton Ton came into view, she quickly put two and two together as to who Cadolbolg's pact partner was. She only gave a small nod to Ton Ton, and the duo heard Angelus' voice in his mind, "I trust your strength, little ones, but I must say this now; your mortality is your greatest weakness now. If one of you dies, so does the other. You must be very careful to take into account your partner in what you do. Self-sacrifice is no longer a term that can apply to you; for your lives are now worth two instead of one. This also means that you are never alone. The strength you have must be shared, as well as the burdens you shoulder. Keep these things in mind as you conduct yourselves in the world. Understood?"

Now, despite having given a mild lecture, Ton Ton and Cadolbolg didn't see any anger or disapproval on Angelus' face. If anything, there may have been pride with the faintest hints of melancholy.

Drop Group #2: Caim | Devon | Ella | Kalastryn | Kurumu | Kyre | Mark | Melethia | Puce | Rugal | Tajuh | Teri

Caim, while he was being lenient at first, decided to throw caution to the wind as soon as the Succubus decided to prod at topics that were not her business to pry into. Reaching into the Wheel in one swift motion, his family blade appeared in his hands, and False Heirloom was sent to the Armory; after which Caim blocked the attack coming at him. Throwing it off with brute force, Caim charged with a sweep of his own. After Ella managed to dodge it, she gasped with pleasant surprise. Already, she could see that the man before her was far more powerful than his clone could have ever hoped to have been. In proper terms, it was not only a matter of "power", it was that the clone was a distilled, "thin" version of the warrior. The real thing was far more terrifying to behold. No sharp quips, bloodlust filling his eyes, and angry screams filling his throat; the warrior was a perfect picture of a man who lived and died by the sword.

Steps to Making a Mortal Angry: 1) Insult their loved ones.

[hr]asdf[/hr]

Teri only stared at her screen with a mixture of being dumbfounded, furious and misery. In this time, she picked up her stylus, and began to do what she had to land her in this place... Write.

Dimitri's Room: A.I. Vermilion | Dmitri

After the conversation with Teri ended and the feed was cut, Dimitri turned to Vermilion; [color=3897E0]

Code:

"I certainly hope she knows what's best... I was afraid of what might happen were she to grow too attached to that man..."

[/color]

Sgt_Jakeman214 · Jan 15, 2013

Drop Group #1: | Aftan | Altea | Akane | Angelus | Cadolbolg | Gabrielle | Jake | Ton Ton
Jake finished his song, and let the peace and silence sink in. He could still not see, but he was he could still hear the Dragon's light breathing. A short sharp intake of air, then she was back to normal.

Jake thought nothing of it and readied to sing another song, when he heard a slight rustle through the air. Perking up a tad, he waited for Angelus' commands, but none came, along with the sound of wings flapping. Cadolbolg, he knew. Otherwise, Angelus would have made a sound. Odd, however, that no words were spoken. Perhaps a hug was in order. Jake shrugged a little, slumping back to the warmth of the fire. He looked peaceful, staring into the flames, though his eyes were unfocused and sightless.

"Sorry to interrupt you, Angelus, Cadolbolg, but who is around? I can hear several sets of footsteps drawing nearer..."

Diablo1099_v1legacy · Jan 15, 2013

Rugal
After Devon seemed to not hear him, most likely because I forgot to snip him, Rugal managed to pry himself away from the warm of his sleeping bag and the wine and proceed deeper into the jungle to find where Teri went off to.
"Teri!....You there?!.....Come on, you know better then to wander at a time like this..." He cried up as he made his way though the trees and vines, the sound of his cutting giving his position more then his shouting.
David West
"About time, Saya, you go left, I'll go right. Slin, if you can get though, Find Kud and if he's there, Riki. LETS ROCK!" David detailed his master plan before the group charged into the camp, instantly gaining the attention of the entire tribe in the process.
Spears and arrows were thrown and the best ever live action zerg rush raced towards them.

bluecrimson · Jan 15, 2013

Drop Group #2: Caim | Devon | Ella | Kalastryn | Kurumu | Kyre | Mark | Melethia | Puce | Rugal | Tajuh | Teri

Tajuh looked over at the writer with an air of annoyance and began talking in a tone that reminded the author of Severus Snape with its scornful drawl. "I wasn't aware that authors believed they were privy to the inner workings of my mind, even if that's but an assumption. Don't you have other things to be checking up on?"

The message from the man was quite clear to the author: step the hell off, because I'm not telling you a damn thing.

[hr]

At Rugal's request, he went over to Teri to see her scribbling on the tablet. "Teri, we've got those supplies. Are you coming to get some of them?"

[hr]

[hr]

Drop Group #3: David | Elena | Kud | Riki | Saya | Slindis

The moment the gunfire started, Slindis began moving through the village, making little noise and being even less noticed from the armor that seemed to give off little light. [color=c20000]Okay, grid search, if any of them appear to be casters or bards of some sort, take them out first. Simple, and it's exactly what I need to help them get their minds off what was heard.[/color]

She made her way to the first group of tents, taking a quick look to see how many people were around before infiltrating any of the huts.

[hr]

NotYetForsaken · Jan 15, 2013

Armageddon

"It is fortunate that I have finally garnered your full attention," Armageddon closed his hand and extinguished the dark flame that he held in his gloved palm. Now he needed to tread lightly, Chaos Servant that he was, not even the Witch of Izalith would willingly go toe to toe with a hero in their own plane. Especially in such a one so conducive to fanservice. "Moka." he began.

He raised a hand and pointed to Kurumu, "Tell me now, what you understand about the euphoria caused by ingestion of demon blood is like. If you do not know, take a bite and tell me."

Armageddon turned his attention back to Kurumu, who had foolishly adopted a melee combat stance, a useless technique against his arsenal of pyromancies if he had actually chose to use them, [color-apocalypse]"And you, you will tell me everything you have understanding of about your family. Specifically... tell me about your sibling."[/color] Then Armageddon stopped, his finger and hand was trembling. "What... what is this... you don't."

He closed his eyes and opened them again, this time they shone deep blood red, "Yuo have a sister don't you...? Alashi... Right? I couldn't... I couldn't be in the wrong world. This is the only one with anyone like you at all." A black flame burst into existence around his right hand, "This is an inconsistency BlackHarte... What the fuck are you saying that Kurono Kurumu doesn't have a registered sister!?"

---

Kyre | Kruumu

Kyre answered Kurumu by bringing herself upward and locking lips with the Succubus before forcing herself onto Kurumu. The taste of blood was still fresh on her lips. Then she pulled back and fell into Kurumu's embrace, still wracked with pain of the demon blood reacting violently with her core physiology, "You are my everything Kurumu," she muttered, "you were the first face I saw when I woke up, you're the last person I know from my past that's still alive. Somehow I know that I'm me when I'm near you. I don't know if that's called love, because I've never felt this way toward anyone buy you!"

She placed a bloody hand on Kurumu's knee and tried to bring herself to her feet, "In a twisted sense, you complete me."

bluerocker · Jan 15, 2013

Drop Group #1: Aftan | Altea | Akane | Angelus| Cadolbolg | Gabrielle | Jake | Ton Ton

Angelus turned and said, "Our wayward comrades have returned."

She looked back to her son and his pact partner, and she hugged the two tightly, "I"m so sorry, Cadolbolg, Ton Ton. I know for a fact that myself and Caim did not intend for this line of thought to cross your mind... You see, we, if anything, want you to be happy. You are our son. It does not matter whether or not you are 'as strong' as us. If anything, we would have wanted you to be in a world without strife, or war. I'm terribly sorry that you had thought that we would have wanted you to..."

She shook a little, still holding the two close to her, "When we trained with you, we did so that you could protect yourself when we weren't around. Yes, Caim has been proud of your quickness to learn; but that doesn't mean he wants you to be a soldier. I know I don't want you to be."

When she set them down, she spoke properly, "Despite what feelings I may have towards this, what is done is done. You are both pact-partners now. You will have to take more care in what you do. Now, I have one last question; do you know what your prices were? With such an unusual pact, I can only imagine that both of you have had to pay for it..."

Drop Group #2: Caim | Devon | Ella | Kalastryn | Kurumu | Kyre | Mark | Melethia | Puce | Rugal | Tajuh | Teri

Caim frowned at the succubus' comments, and moved away from the tree. The sword still at the ready; should the succubus come for a second round. However, he was still a tad bit repulsed by the advances towards him; and asked,

Code:

"If you usually do that to distract your opponent, then I won't judge you. However, in this case it's just annoying. Or is that what you had in mind?"

Inwardly, Caim patted himself on the back for a punch that he dodged; as he had turned the tables, and begun to annoy the succubus back.

Dimitri's Room: A.I. Vermilion | Dmitri

If Dimitri still had any steam in him from his crusade against Rugal, then Vermilion's thoughts on the matter had deflated him. She was right... If anything, exposing his young mistress to those images may have done her some more harm than good; as well as the talk that he had given her moments before... With a heavy sigh, he slumped in his chair, and watched his companion by the fire,

[color=3897E0]

Code:

"I am afraid that you are correct, Ms. Vermilion. I may have hurt the young miss more than I thought. It's... It's a part of my natural programing. She is my User; and I am her personal assistant. I am literally wired to protect her, at any means necessary. Even if it might hurt her a little... At the time, I thought that this would be the best course of action, but I also feel that if I try to patch things up this moment, I will appear insincere!"

Covering his face with his hands, Dimitri rubbed his temples as he tried to think of a proper way to fix what problems he may have caused...

Drop Group #1: Aftan | Altea | Akane | Angelus| Cadolbolg | Gabrielle | Jake | Ton Ton
Jake sighed and closed his eyes, moving his face up towards whomever was standing in front of him. A wave of a dismissive hand accompanied the motion. "Worry not about me Aftan, there is nothing you can do to help though you wish to. Angelus provided counsel, and the methods gave me a glimpse into the future and I saw a horrible sight that may come to be. My mind has struck me blind, though I should be fine once I sleep or when the light returns. We used the fire, you see, so that's why the time restriction. Gabrielle, how are you? Thank you for what you did, I owe you just as I do Angelus. If you ever need to talk, my door is always open."

Akane hugged Gabs tight from behind before asking, "Why is Jake thanking you? He wasn't with our group was he?"

"Cadolbolg and Ton Ton! Congratulations on a successful pact. I would like to echo Angelus' words, and I wish you Good Luck and Good Hunting."

Drop Group #2: Caim | Devon | Ella | Kalastryn | Kurumu | Kyre | Mark | Melethia | Puce | Rugal | Tajuh | Teri

In her writing, Teri found that she had been able to make herself relax a bit from the previous encounter with the data on her tablet and her fight with Dimitri (it also helped he sent her a few messages begging for her to forgive his well-intended extremism); even if the subject of her scribblings were a bit grim. However, when she heard someone approaching, she used a water bottle to swish her mouth out and to clean up her face a little; and forced herself to put on a faux attitude that was not anywhere close to her feelings at the moment. That was when she heard Devon:

"Teri, we've got those supplies. Are you coming to get some of them?"

She looked up from the tablet; [color=0E59E4]

Code:

"Maybe a little later. All I really need is a few refills in my med kit and another water bottle. You know, to make sure I have a Water Elemental at the ready. I have one right here, but I've been drinking from it... It might make the little guy not feel so good... But thanks for telling me! Is that all? If so, you're welcome to chill here. It's nice enough, with the little puddle of messed up water, and the trees..."

"Aftan is right Gabrielle, I can feel it in you... But I won't ask until you are ready to tell us. How are you feeling otherwise, what about the ...burns? I'll never forgive myself for doing that to you... After you jumped in to help me as well..."

"I can help with that ladies. I'm no healer, but I could try and reset her body to the point before she got burnt, a system restore if you would. Essentially, I'd be setting her body back to the last time I saw her unharmed, so back on the airship just before the jump. Be bloody awesome had it of worked on me when I tried it...." Jake interjected, hoping to steer the conversation away from Gabs without having to lie.

Akane looked away in shame as Gabrielle moved over to the Author. "No, I should never have let my wrath get the better of me... Jack would be so disappointed in me right now..."

Jake grabbed his gemstone, placing his other hand upon Gabrielle's breast, directly over her heart. He took a deep breathe and let it out smoothly, the gem glowing and then flashing a brilliant sapphire even through his fist. Gabrielle felt a surge of energy hit her, then nothingness, then like she was fighting fit. Which she was now, her body and nothing else restored to before she suffered the burns. Jake slumped back, his energy now almost all spent and removed his hands, letting them fall to his sides.

"That should do the trick, short stuff. I also have some bad news for your little vampire, the Mark in this realm is a fake, a projection, incorporeal. However, if you wish for Author blood, I humbly offer myself. It's the least I can do. Then I'd like to sleep before sunrise, I am fuck arse tired." he said sleepily. It had been a long day.
