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

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Ton Ton, David

"...Shit..." David answered in reaction to his "Girlfriend" being pregnant, although the same phase could be easily transplanted for his current situation.
"Okay...Fuck, ummm...Just...about this..."Virus"...Did you catch something...on your trip?..." He then asked, hoping Slindis wasn't mean enough to inflict him with a STD as well.

Jenny, Teri, Devon

Jenny was unsure what this "Other Teri" wanted, but seeing how this class would go on for another while...
"...Alright then. Teri, I hope you don't mind, but it seems that your..."Friend" would like to talk to me." She said as she focused again on the Shadow.
"Anyway, my name is Jenny. And what do you call yourself?"

Rugal, Melethia

"...I see..." Rugal said, somewhat relieved that she knew "something" about that topic, less work for him and Slindis.
"Just you've seen what the security here is like. It was best to just play along rather than make a fuss." He added, chuckling a bit at David's misfortune.
"You feel like you are learning something?"

 

[Sithmorack]

Shadow, Cadolbolg

Shadow kinda felt bad for Cadolbolg. Sure he was kinda useless in the situation. But at least he was trying.

"Hey its not your fault. You and I shouldn't even be up here. Slindis here shouldn't have let you come up, your a great actor! You have nothing apologize for. and you..." he said and looked at Slindis.

"Why? Just why? Why did you think it was a good idea to let Cadolbolg come up here? Hes obviously not prepared for this and lets face it im not the best partner. Especially when you make me female and pregnant.... [small]ass....[/small]"

Shadow said while glaring at Slindis.

 

[bluecrimson]

The Other Students, SLin

She briefly observed as the majority of the students walked down and began to go through the skits, some getting into it with more enthusiasm than others.

Cadolbolg, Shadow, Slin

Slindis walked over to the two, and as she got closer Shadow saw that this woman was not about to back down. [color=c20000]"He freely volunteered, and I applaud him for it. However, while I am teaching this class, you will learn to respect the students in it. Even if he did stumble, he did put heart into it. It's better than some foulmouthed students that think I do this solely to amuse myself. Would you rather go through the physical training?"[/color] Her tone got a very sharp edge to the end of it, although it was hard to think this woman could really do much in that aspect.

Jenny, Teri, Devon

"Get her killed, Haagandaaz, and you'll be without a home." The Shadow Devon left that stinging message to Teri's Shadow as the real Devon talked to his fellow Author.

"Teri, I've got an idea. It's always going to be part of you, right? Why not find a way to utilize that? It keeps him in check, at least, and it might help you to be able to get that out."

Melethia, Rugal

Melethia sighed as she took the notes. "Well, the main thing I think she's trying to bring up here is a risk management thing. I could be wrong, but it's all it really boils down to."

 

[Sithmorack]

Cadolbolg, Shadow, Slin

Shadow just looked at her for a minute registering what he just said. "Wait.... did you just say if I dont back down your going to 'rape' me?!!?!?" Shadow yelled out alarmed.

 

[bluerocker]

Ton Ton, David

Ton Ton looked heavy in thought when he answered, [color=15650D]"I think it's a stomach virus. But.... I... Well, I guess I gotta fess up to something."[/color]

Ton Ton moved to the edge of the table and sat, letting his little feeties hang off the edge as he continued, [color=15650D]"I haven't really been the best of ladies. I went barhopping with the girls, and I had a little fling while I was gone. Naturally, hindsight is 20/20, and I realize what I did was so WRONG! I'm so sorry David. I shouldn't have done the things that I have done, and now this baby which may be on the way.... Oh god, what have I done?"[/color]

Putting his face into his hands, Ton Ton tried his best to emulate crying, but this was where his acting finally fell flat. It sounded more like laughter than anything else.

Cadolbolg, Shadow, Slin

Upon hearing both Slindis' praise for Cadolbolg trying, as well as Shadow trying to defend him, Cadolbolg stepped up, so to speak, and spoke to the teacher and the Russian student,

"Thank you, both of you, but Girlfriend Shadow, Teacher Slindis, I think I understand where I went wrong. I must not have understood what we were supposed to do. So, that must be why I didn't do it right. But please, don't fight... It's not good for comrades to fight, right? Doesn't that mess up the battle strategy?"

Ah, poor Cadolbolg, not truly understanding the purpose of the class, had defaulted back to what he did learn about in his earlier development; battle.

Jenny, Teri, Devon

[color=0E59E4]"Whatever shuts her up, Jenny. Just don't feel obligated to talk to her for too long."[/color]

"Teri, I've got an idea. It's always going to be part of you, right? Why not find a way to utilize that? It keeps him in check, at least, and it might help you to be able to get that out."

Teri reflected on this for a moment, and wondered aloud, [color=0E59E4]"...What can I do though? I don't know what I could utilize her for, aside from violent, angry things. That's something she obviously wants to do! Go out and 'rip and tear'... God, it's scary to know something that bloodthirsty is a part of me. It just means that I'm bloodthirsty, doesn't it..?"[/color]

Ignoring the comment Devon's Shadow made, Teri's Shadow turned its attention back to Jenny, [color=0E59E4]"I have no name. I am a part of a whole. I am the Shadow, the True Self. But, if it helps, you can call me Teri Gravel, just like my whole. We are one and the same, after all."[/color]

Jenny got the uncomfortable sensation that something with sharp teeth was grinning in her direction, rather like a cat before a trapped mouse,

[color=0E59E4]"I don't want anything in particular from you, if that's what you're wondering. I just get bored, and sometimes..."[/color]

There was a pause, as well as a 'shiver' of revulsion from the shadow as well as a growl from it, before it spoke again,

[color=0E59E4]"I get angry. Especially when my sad sack of a whole won't take action against someone who's wronged her. I understand the reservations behind it, but MAN does it piss me off! I want to rip that bastard into nothing, grind his bones into the dust and then some! .... You get what I'm saying?"[/color]

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Ton Ton, David

As Ton Ton attempted to act, David just stood there, the dullness of his acting being as subtle as a flying mallet.
"Look...It's okay, I forgive you...and stuff. I'm just more worried about this baby then anything else. I mean, I was going to go to college! But now..." He sighed as he sat opposite his..."Girl" as he "Cried".
"...Wait...We covering abortion in this class?..."
Boom goes the Dynamite.

Jenny, Teri, Devon

Oh boy, just like Devons... Jenny thought as Teri's darker side reminded her of Devon's, including the burn wound she got from it.
"So you want to hurt someone that hurted you? I understand, it a normal reaction to being wronged. I myself do want to "Go to town" on some people. Just whom is the target of your aggression?" She asked the Shadow.

Rugal, Melethia

"...Close enough." Rugal shrugged, not really wanting to go into too much detail with the whole "Birds and Bees" thing.
In his mind, they lucked out that Slindis wasn't going on too much about the actual deed itself, rather focusing on the aftermath of it.
God help us all when she starts dating...

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

ignore

 

[bluecrimson]

Cadolbolg, Shadow, Slin

If SHadow had any sense, he could feel the shift in how Slindis held herself - from the loosening of her muscles to the subtle shift in how she breathed, it was clear a line had been crossed. If Rugal was looking over at Slindis, he could also clearly see the shift that indicated she's been made angry.

[color=c20000]"Leave this room. Now. Head directly to the Fencing Instructor's room or detention, but you will not be in here any longer."[/color] She motioned for Cadolbolg to get off of Shadow's head as she looked half-ready to toss him out herself.

Jenny, Teri, Devon

Devon shook his head. "I keep an ear out for what he says in there, but that doesn't mean that's all I am. It's just a facet of oneself, and one that you need to take some time to fully harness. Bottling it up won't do you any good, though."

Melethia, Rugal

Melethia seemed almost bored as she took some of the notes along with the other 12 year olds in there - anyone under the age of 13 had been exempt from this portion of the class.

 

[Sithmorack]

Shadow

"See ya" Shadow said with a grin on his face. Shadow casually walked out of the room, but not before yelling "hey David don't fuck up!"

He then left the room and went to go fetch his sniper.

 

[bluerocker]

Shadow, Cadolbolg

Upon seeing Slindis' gesture, Cadolbolg lifted off gently from Shadow's head and fluttered over to where his pact partner was talking with his class partner.

Ton Ton, David

Ton Ton looked up from his crocodile tears, [color=15650D]"I dunno, I think we're done... Nice job for improve!"[/color]

Holding up a little paw, David could see the Tonberry was trying to go for a high five. However, this was interrupted with Cadolbolg landed on David's head with a glum expression,

"I think I got me and my partner in trouble..."

Jenny, Teri, Devon

"So you want to hurt someone that hurted you? I understand, it a normal reaction to being wronged. I myself do want to "Go to town" on some people. Just whom is the target of your aggression?" She asked the Shadow.

There was a dark, hissing laugh from the Shadow after that question pierced the mental air, and the Shadow answered, [color=0E59E4]"Oh? She didn't tell the resident therapist about her problems? Then again, she doesn't tell anyone much unless it's forced out her. The Whole is a stubborn one like that, always bottling up her troubles and her feelings; resolving to solve it all on her own... Isn't it 'tragic'?"[/color]

The hissing laugh resounded in the air, [color=0E59E4]"But, that's getting off subject... You know very well who it is. I would know, since I helped Write him. Me and Darren... Ah, we're such a creative team. Wrote a horrible, mean, character into existence and use him to torture someone so sweet. And then, we brought back again, and again, and again... Oh, but it was for the sake of drama, for conflict!

But of course, you know why she never mentioned this to you? Because she felt so bad about it! Hindsight is always a ***** like that, especially when things come to bite you in the ass...."[/color]

With that being said, images began to flow in Jenny's mind, those of a familiar and terrifying face; and how the bearer of that visage appeared, captured the Cleric, and all that followed. The desperation, the fear, the paranoia; all Jenny had come to see for herself. It all ended with the last few moments Teri had seen Bruiser, when she brought the Reppuken to his brow, and the dark pleasure she felt for it.

[color=0E59E4]"Now do you see? Why it was so heavily guarded. Why it was not spoken of to YOU especially... She'd want your forgiveness, even if it did not feel deserved at all. After all, we collaborated on that monster, and what was suffered was reaping what was sown.... And that, is why I want to kill him again, and as many times as it will be needed should he rise again."[/color]

In the meantime, the bearer of that Shadow did not pay heed to what it showed or said, as she did not want anything to do with it while she could keep her mind away from it. Instead, she focused upon her conversation with Devon,

[color=0E59E4]"...I suppose that is true. Tell me, what do you do to keep him calm?"[/color]

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal

As Shadow was sent off, Rugal made a note to contact Caim, seeing how he was the "Fencing Teacher" and all.
Pulling out his ring, he said "Caim, heads up, one of our own was acting out in class, Slindis is sending him your way. Just a heads up, keep an eye on him and watch for the security. Rugal, out."
Once it was sent and Shadow was gone, he looked to Melethia and said "Eh, least we ain't getting shot at, right?"

David

"Wait, it's over? Huh...Nothing on abortion? I mean, I'm not a baby killer-[sub]Except for that one time where we fought Satan or...something[/sub], but I think that option deserves at least a passing mention, right?" David said as he sat out, glad that his 5 minutes of infamy were over.

Jenny

"...."
Jenny was stunned by what she was seeing, What Bruiser did to Teri, how he was "Killed" only to return, she couldn't believe it.
"....I....Don't know what to say...." she stammered, Teri had something to do with Bruiser's creation? What? This didn't make any sense to her.
"...I'm sorry, I have to go." she said before cutting off the link between her and the Shadow while she processed all this.

 

[bluecrimson]

Rugal, Melethia.

Melethia finished the notes as the class wound down and looked up to Rugal. "I dunno, would make it a bit more of a challenge. Make ya think on your feet, at least, and it'd help ya remember more."

David, Slindis

Slindis shook her head. [color=c20000]"It would be a topic for another class, really, but it would deserve a mention were we staying here longer. Now then, do you mind if I could patch you up?"[/color] Cadolbolg could see her rummaging in her bag and pulled out one of the more tender and larger chunks of jerky to offer him.

[color=c20000]"You were not at fault for doing your best, even if you did stumble. What Shadow got was all his own doing."[/color]

Devon, Teri

Devon thought for a moment before talking. "Well, even if he is a spiteful bastard, he still does want to be listened to. Not saying that he's always got the best ideas, but acknowledging him seems to keep him tamed."

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal, Melethia.

"...True..." Was all that Rugal could say as Melethia stated that shooting at students might be helpful for quick thinking.
Hell, that time in the training room with Slindis was proof of that.
"Still, as much as I agree with you, We've had too many close calls in the past and I'd rather not see you actively get yourself into a fight, understood?" He said as the Students began to leave.

David, Slindis

"...Yeah, Sure. Me and Russian-Mc-Jerk-Face had a bit of a scrap before the class started. Hence the aggro in the room." David explained, proving his piece about "If I told you, I'd have to kill you." was total BS.
Taking off his jacket to reveal more of his painful looking bruises, he said "Fire away, S."

 

[bluerocker]

Caim, Angelus

As the pact partners wandered down the halls, Caim paused for a moment upon receiving a note from Rugal, "Caim, heads up, one of our own was acting out in class, Slindis is sending him your way. Just a heads up, keep an eye on him and watch for the security. Rugal, out."

With a bit of curiosity, he sent back, "Understood. Would you mind telling me which one I'll be up against? Gives me a bit of time to prepare for what comes..."

After that, he gave a nod to Angelus, and the duo began their walk to the practice area for Fencing Class. After all, in this mad place, it was dangerous to go alone.

David, Slindis, Ton Ton, Cadolbolg

Cadolbolg sniffed the jerky piece and licked his chops happily before taking it with his claws and nibbling a corner of it. After a moment, he spoke up, "So Girlfriend Shadow getting in trouble wasn't my fault?"

As David was getting doctored up, Ton Ton and Cadolbolg had to move positions to a desk close by, the Tonberry answering his pact partner's question, [color=15650D]"Yeah, you're doing fine, buddy. And don't forget, you should say thank you when people give you nice things...."[/color]

Giving a nudge to the turtle, Cadolbolg realized what Ton Ton was trying to tell him, and spoke up, "Oh, right! Thank you for the nummy treat, Teacher Slindis!"

As Cadolbolg continued teething on the piece of jerky, Ton Ton took a good look at David's wounds and shook his head in disbelief, [color=15650D]"You certainly are touch to keep walking around after taking a beating like that, Mr. West..."[/color]

Devon, Teri

For a moment, Teri paused, wondering why the chatter in the back of her mind finally ceased, and then answered Devon, [color=0E59E4]"Well, I think you certainly are on the right track. Jenny and her seem to have quieted down... I'll take up what you said. Now, I just need to find an outlet for her, aside from conversation..."[/color]

After another moment of thought, Teri laughed, and shook her head, [color=0E59E4]"A shame they don't have any self help books about pleasing your inner psychobitch! All I've ever seen is "release your inner goddess" or some silly new age thing like that!"[/color]

As she giggled at her silly joke, her gaze turned towards the door, and she saw Rugal leaving with Melethia in tow,

[color=0E59E4]"Maybe I could ask Dad after we get out of here? He seems to have himself under control most of the time, occasional angry screaming aside."[/color]

 

[bluecrimson]

Rugal, Melethia.

She laughed. "Trouble already finds me, WHeathair, so I don't have to struggle for that. I won't throw that first hit, but I'll be landing the final one..."

David, Slindis

The Paladin worked rather quickly at healing up the most major injuries first, leaving the more minor ones for her next passes. [color=c200]"He's lucky that this wasn't something a bit more physically inclined, or I would have put him through the wringer. Now, this will still feel sore for a while afterwards, but that's going to happen after so much healing in so short a time."[/color]

She gave the go ahead for David to do as he wished as she focused on the Bruisers. [color=c200]"It was not your fault, Cadolbolg. I'm glad you enjoyed the treat, though. Lupito happens to love them."[/color] Right around that time, said pup jumped in the room and on one of the tables.

Devon, Teri

He finished packing up and responded to Teri. "Well, maybe working it out through some training? It seems like a start, at least. I was going to go to practice some with Caim, anyways, but it's all about finding a safe outlet."

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal, Melethia.

Her father echoed her laugh soon after.
"That's all I want, Dear." Rugal said as he looked at the time: 4pm, nearly the end of the school day.
It was then he got the message from Caim, to which he responded "Someone named "Shadow", Russian, appears Superhuman. Have fun."

David, Slindis

Once he had a minor patch up thanks to Slindis's magic, David gave his thanks before putting his jacket back on.
"Thanks. Just getting man-handled around here is starting to feel like a full time job." He said as he did a quick self check after being healed, the pain was still there, but at least he didn't look like someone that got tag teamed by several people much stronger than him.

Devon, Teri, Jenny

All that was going through Jenny's mind was what Teri's Shadow had told her, that Teri and someone named Darren made Bruiser...somehow.
This was a real shock to the system, her face was blank as she tried to comprehend this.
As the Class ended and everyone set out, she meekly walked away, going straight past Teri and Devon as she did.

 

[bluerocker]

Caim, Angelus

"Someone named "Shadow", Russian, appears Superhuman. Have fun."

Caim rolled his eyes at the message and went to his class with Angelus in tow, and waited for the person in question. Along the way, he received a message about Devon and his sons coming as well, and let Angelus know about what was to come. With a smile, the dragon allowed a fire to flicker between her fingers,

"Perhaps while you handle this Shadow character, I can aid in tutoring your student? His lack of practice in the arcane whilst training with you cannot be good for him, hmn?"

The warrior only chuckled silently at the assessment as the two wandered to his classroom.

Slindis, Devon, Teri, Jenny, Ton Ton, Cadolbolg, David

After seeing David off in a better condition, the Cuties fluttered back to Devon's side, the two landing on their respective spots as he began walking and talking with Teri.

[color=15650D]"See, there's no need to worry, Cadolbolg. Mr. West will be just fine..."[/color]
"Right... Hmn, Friend Devon, where are we to go next?"

Teri, on the other hand, taking note of Rugal's watching over Melethia, decided to turn to Slindis instead. After all, the woman kept a very firm grip on herself. Perhaps the Cleric could take a lesson or two from Slindis's teachings as well. However, before she could move, she saw Jenny speed past herself and Devon, and tilted her head in confusion. Had the Shadow said something mean to her? But before Teri said anything, Jenny was long gone. With a sigh, and a wave to her friends, Teri wandered over to Slindis, and with a hope her mother wasn't busy, Teri lightly tapped Slindis' arm to get her attention,

[color=0E59E4]"Hey Mum, are you busy...? I kinda need to ask you something."[/color]

 

[bluecrimson]

Rugal, Melethia.

Her father echoed her laugh soon after.
"That's all I want, Dear." Rugal said as he looked at the time: 4pm, nearly the end of the school day.
It was then he got the message from Caim, to which he responded "Someone named "Shadow", Russian, appears Superhuman. Have fun."

Melethia looked up at Rugal after putting her notebook in one of the pouches. "So, what are we gonna do to get out of here? I mean, it's really boring here."

David, Slindis

She nodded. [color=c20000]"If I kept track of all the times I was beaten down, I'd have no time for anything else. Not to say that your complaints don't have merit, but the main thing is learning from those beatings. You find yourself low on stamina? Work on that through high-intensity runs and swims. You find you don't have the right strength behind your punches? condition your body. There's always avenues for improvement, but you have to have an open mind to see them at times."[/color] With that, she walked over to her shaken daughter.

Devon, Bruisers

Devon looked up at the Bruisers as he and Ella began to walk to the fencing room. "I was just about to start training with your parents. Ella already told me she wants to come as well, so maybe we can all pick some stuff up. Sounds good to you two?" As they walked to Caim's room, a notice that the Fall Dance was canceled was passed to them, and Ella was visibly displeased.

Still, they got into the Fencing room without too much trouble and saw Angelus waiting for them. "Oh, Caim's busy with that Shadow guy? Kinda wanted to work with him a bit today, but I guess I do need to work on my magic a good bit. Unless there was something you wanted me to focus on more, Angelus."

Teri, Sadei, Slindis

Slindis nodded and asked Teri what was going on with her. She hadn't missed how her pupil and daughter had been inattentive in the class, and something had bothered her. [color=c20000]"Teri, if you want it, we could focus on something to help you with these issues. We wouldn't be able to devote as much time to your magical training, of course, but it will help you in other ways."[/color]

Sadei did that traditional soothing chiming before talking to Teri. I think it's worth a shot, if only so we can get that crazy lady in your head to chill out...

 

[bluerocker]

Devon, Bruisers

[color=15650D]"Sounds good, Mr. Devon. Perhaps there is a way we can help you as well?"[/color]
"If you want, I can shoot more lightning at you!"

After a few more moments of wandering, the little trio came to the classroom to find the pact partners waiting patiently, but the (former) Prince of Caerleon looked a bit surprised to see Devon and the Cuties.

"Back for more already? I would oblige you happily, Devon, but as you probably know, I've already got a previous enagement."

With that, Angelus took the reigns and wandered to Devon's side, giving Cadolbolg a little pat on the head.

"Oh, Caim's busy with waiting on that Shadow guy? Kinda wanted to work with him a bit today, but I guess I do need to work on my magic a good bit. Unless there was something you wanted me to focus on more, Angelus."

Angelus gave a small nod to Devon's assessment, "Yes, working with your magic would be a good idea, as you often spend your time with a blade... Now, over here. Ton Ton, Cadolbolg, please detach yourselves from him before we begin."

With a soft pat on her son's head, she waited a moment for Ton Ton and Cadolbolg to detach themselves from Devon's shoulders and get a bit of a distance away, and Angelus began her lesson, beginning with a small flame flickering on her tip of her finger and a slight pacing too and fro from her standing point. The minute flame stayed in its position for a moment, and then the dragoness smiled as she allowed it to dance and twirl between her fingers,

"I have noticed, Devon, that you are gifted with a power few possess. The use of magic, and the control of an element of nature. Both of which I see you sorely neglect to practice nearly as much your combative maneuvers. A pity, really, considering it has so much to offer, the wind especially. Complete control of such a thing,"

She flicked the flame in Devon's direction, and it roared intensely with a strength that was not hinted at a moment ago, taking upon the shape of it's mistress' true form, it's jaws closing in near Devon and- ... stopping. The flames, burning bright hot, stayed hanging in the air for a moment, and then receded back to the single ember on her finger,

"can be one of your greatest assets. See how the flame never touched you?"

Indeed, it had not. There wasn't even ash on Devon's clothes. Strange, considering how close it was to him a moment ago.

"Had I not the proper concentration, my fire could have burnt you alive. However, there is a secret to all of this. As the flame is a part of me, the winds are now a part of you. To utilize the energies within you properly, you must work with them and be one with them. For myself, I do not use fire, I AM fire. Fire is in my veins, I have had it since birth! Without my fire I am not a dragon. The winds you have gained are now the same for you. To deny the use of them is to deny yourself a part of who you are. Now, send a gale at me. Let us see if you can extinguish this flame?"

She stopped her pacing, and then planted her feet firmly on the floor, the ember in her hand now rising to more of a torch light, and began to float in the air above the dragoness.

Teri, Sadei, Slindis

Teri couldn't help but flinch a little at Sadei's classification of her Shadow, and answered the staff, [color=0E59E4]"Well, Sadei, that 'crazy lady' is technically a part of me. I guess I'm a bit crazy then. But hopefully, Mum'll help me reign her in a little more."[/color]

After that, she gave a soft nod to Slindis' suggestion, and answered, [color=0E59E4]"If I don't get her under control, no amount of magic will be able to help me. I'm ready to take on whatever you want to throw at me. Now, where do we start?"[/color]

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

AA High (End of Arc)

As Rugal went to answer Melethia, he paused for a moment as a Blond girl began to make her way over to the "Entrance" of the school (Which was locked to stop anyone from leaving).
"...Hey, isn't that one of ours?..." He asked as she took several deep breaths and started preparing herself for...something.
Alright, Lucretia, You can do this. Mom could do this...least...I hope she could... Lucretia West-Volkov took herself as she focused her power.
"...What is sh-?...!!! GET DOWN!" He shouted as he turned Melethia away from a huge blast of light that filled the entire building, a perfect purple flash engulfing all the patrons of the strange school/prison/hell/what have you.

David smirked at Slindis's pep talk.
"Listen, I get it, try hard and all that. Just they don't teach ya how to throw down with demi-gods in the Irish Army." He said, recalling MUCH simpler times before all this bullshi-
*BANG!*
"Eh!? What the fuck-" David managed to get out before he too was consumed by the purple light...

Jenny was walking away from the others, her mind wondering what the hell the connection between Teri, Bruiser and this "Darren" was.
Was that Voice lying to her? Was this some ruse meant to toy with her mind?
As she was deep in thought, she didn't notice the light until it was too late...

It raced throughout the entire building, seemingly seeking out certain people and "Taking" them from this place.
In the space of a few seconds, the weird and wonderful people of the Rising Dawn left AA High as quickly as they came...

[HEADING=2]End of Arc[/HEADING]​

[hr]

Rising Dawn Airship

And just like that, in another seemingly random cosmic influx, They were home, as if nothing had happened at all...

Rugal

The first thing Rugal did after the flash was open his eyes, his vision seemingly restored after that strange trip.
He looked around and found himself standing in one of the many metal hallways of the Rising Dawn, Hugging Melethia in case that flash was an explosion of some kind.
Taking a few nervous breaths before relaxing, he quipped "...was that exciting enough for you?..."
"...Yes?" Melethia answered, as confused as he was.
He then let out a few laughs as he realized that they were out of that madhouse

David

One moment he was in a sex ed classroom, recalling his army days, the next, his cheek was pressed against something cold, hard and smelling like someone after a night on the town.
He stirred as he opened his eyes, finding himself slumped over the counter of the Rising Dawn's public...pub.
Looking around with his head pounding, he found a empty bottle of scotch and a shot glass nearby.
"...So that's what that was...Uhhhh...maybe I should cut back...just a little...tomorrow..." He slurred as he reached over and got another bottle, figuring the mental ass shit he just went though to be some booze induced blackout.
Tsh, like that girl was my kid, that would be stupid... He thought as he went to work on his next bender, hoping to get a blackout set in the 1900s Ireland.

Jenny

The Kirila Gardevoir too reappeared on the airship, coming too on her bed in her room, back in her adult form.
"mmmm...Hm?...Wha-....Was I sleeping?..." she asked herself as she looked around.

Note: Spawn where-ever you want on the airship
