@All: And I r back....

[hr][HEADING=3]
Dream World​
[/HEADING][hr]
An desolate field of broken down machines, she looked at the decaying bodies. Mangled as they were, she could nothing but let tears flow.

"This is your fault... Friendly fire... ain't."
[hr]
Noel woke up as she sighed again, getting herself armored up as she set up her cylinder as the armor pieced back together. Once finished, she exited the barracks and stood alone. Looking around and knowing that she had space, she started done some strange poses pivoting from different positions, holding her hands if she had her pistols in hand. Slowly, some water waves started to rise from the ground around her in a circle.
[hr]
It was the middle of the night when Charlotte woke up to the banging on her door. The creaking noise of the door was heard as Charlotte crawled out of her bed. She wasn't afraid of the dark as she made her way to the door. Three muffled voices came from the front of her house. Two were her parents and another unknown voice.

"[sub]Under direct Orders from the United Nations Confederation... ld will need to be taken by us?[/sub]"

"[sub]...ave no right to do this![/sub]"

"[sub]...ep your to... Sergeant.[/sub]"

"[sub]Please si... she our onl....[/sub]" A loud crack was heard as something heavy fell to the ground followed by wail of Charlotte's mother.

Charlotte's eyes teared up as she slammed open her door and ran over to her mother side. Her father was on the ground, gripping his left eye. Her mother crouched down to him.

"[sub]Bastards....[/sub]" her father growled at his agressor.

This newcomer was just taller than her father, 6 foot straight. An oddly splashed suit of black, grey and brown colors covered him. An eagle, claws over a stylized circle was emblazed on his black cap and right chest. Charlotte recognized the symbol. It was the United Nations Confederacy emblem for the Defense and Military Forces.

She shifted her eyes around the new man, unsure of what to do.

"Ah, so this is her? Marvelous. Coming right to your aid, not knowing what was going on. She is a perfect candidate. You certainly have planted your seeds well Mister Robert Chapman."

Charlotte puffed her face at the man, a fire in her eyes for the man talking down to her father. Her mother gripped Charlotte and Robert's shoulders, dragging them slightly over to her.

"We'll... We'll be able to see her again right?" she asked. The man nodded in response.

"Wha... Mommy, what's going on?" Charlotte asked, turning back to her mother. Robert shifted on the ground to be on Charlotte's mother's right side. A large swelling black spot covered Robert's left eye.

"Louise... We can't..." Louise (Charlotte's mother) hushed him as he cut off his sentence.

"Charlotte... We are sending you to... another school."

Charlotte blinked. She also hated being lied to as she felt the animosity in the air. "And my fri-wennds?"

"They... They will stay here."

"Char... Be strong, Charlotte. And we will see you again. I promise this..." Her mother's eyes swelling up with tears. Robert continued to glare at the man before him.

Charlotte nodded at her mother, starting to cry as well. "No, no, no... Please don't cry Charlotte... Don't please..."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Once your all done crying over this... You. Girl. Will need to come with me." The man said, turning towards the door.

"Can... Can I at least take Mr. Fluffy with me?" Charlotte asked her parents. Louise looked at the man, seeing that he really didn't care. He was just doing his job, despite how painful it was. She had heard of the Gatherers being near emotionless and disconnected because of their jobs, but... Facing a real Gatherer.

"Yes. Go and get Mr. Fluffy." Louise gave a weak smile. Charlotte made a dash towards her room and after a few seconds, came back out dragging a stuffed bear.

Louise had another weak chuckle, gently grabbing Charlotte's hand holding the teddy bear. "Don't you drag Mr. Fluffy, ok? He wouldn't like that remember?"

Robert leaned in and kissed Charlotte on the forehead. "Be a strong girl Charlotte."

Charlotte nodded and walked over to the man, glaring at him in the eyes. It amused him. "And have a goodnight... Or perhaps day is? Hmph, farewell." Shoving Charlotte alittle, he escorted the girl outside where 3 UNC soldiers in full armor saluted at him, their assault rifles slung infront of their chests.

Charlotte gripped Mr. Fluffy even more, eyeing the soldiers as a boxy-looking transport came infront of her house. Looking weary, she gazed back up at her captors face as she scanned and eventually found the name tag of him.

Code:
[center]Cpt. Ethan Orwell[/center]

"Beatrice" woke up as the memory stopped, growling as she got up, taking her weapons with her. Such idealism... Was it really like that?

Gripping the sword and pistol on her hips she stood once again. The same icy cold determination she had before.

"My name... Is Charlotte Chapman." she said to herself as if disdainful of her namesake.

"Not really. But I can do this." Laguna held out one hand. There waas a flash of blue, and a machine gun appeared in his grip.

OoC: @Furi Congrats!

"Hey there." Cynane responded to Dal'Sheed as she peered uneasily around, the narrow corridors vastly different to the wide open huts she knew. "Thought I'd come in and see what this... thing loked like on the inside. Are al these buildings so much smaller on the inside than they are outside?"

"You don't call that magic? Show me again." she said while opening her book again and flipping to a blank page

Tao and Echo would find the cooks were already serving some food, and would serve them as well. There were a few soldiers here, eating.

OoC: @Furi: Gratz!
Shall we move along the plot?
Also, I altered the Codex a bit, but the character lists are still obscured.... Might have to try removing some things, like pictures, and see if that helps.

"Thank you." the man replied, adjusting the satchel to cover as much as possible.

"Allright then." Laguna threw the machine gun over his shoulder, and it vanished in another blue flash before it hit the ground. He held up both hands as if he was propping something up on his shoulder, and a bazooka appeared.

Tao started making a ruckus about wanting food, bothering all the cooks she could find.

Echo facepalmed as she watched the cat girl do her thing.

Cynane wears many different armours for different situations. Physically she is athletic and petite, with deep red hair down to her back.
Lively, outspoken and brash. Cynane is brave and independant in combat with the monsters of her native world, but unused to battle against human enemies. Coming from a primitive society and a very different culture, the ways of other worlds can rob her of some of her overconfidence.
Cynane is the third in a family of legendary hunters, and is trained to be proficient with all manner of hunting weapons, although she favours the longsword and the great bow.
A variety on longswords, each with different elemental attributes depending on their composition. A bowgun, called a Green Shotgun. Two great bows, with fire element and water element each. A lance and shield, with thunder element. Hidden Edges, a pair of triple bladed dual swords of uncanny sharpness and dark appearance.

OOC This could probably do with some work, but it'll suffice for now.

@Salty: Might as well. And now I gotta start doing probability checks.

Charlotte eventually exited outside, checking over her weapons while keeping an eye on Noel's practice.

Noel kept about her business practicing, as the water around her rose to her knees.

OoC: @Salt Character lists work for me. By the way, Rita and Laguna are in the mess. And I'll PM you Laguna's character sheet in a moment.

"What do you mean by that, Cynane? It's a stone building. Stones take up a lot of space."

"You can go on ahead. I'll wait here so you can return the Satchel." He said to the unnamed man.

"So... how did you survive that explosion yesterday?" Cynane asked the man, choosing not to comment on his nakedness. "You wer blown apart! Nothing could have survived that! But you didn't even need a Shaman's help, or the use of any potions or charms! I've never seen the like of it!" She turned when Dal'Sheed replied to her.
"Yes, but I've seen only a couple of stone buildings in my time, and never one like this. And on the inside, they too had wide, open spaces. I've never seen one with such narrow, winding corrdors as this."

"Calm down... Are you a beastkin?" The cook looked at Tao a bit annoyed as he realized this.
"What? A beastkin? Great first one, now another. Why does the General allow any on our base? There's a reason most people avoid the... creatures." Another piped in.
"I don't know, but you know the general won't be happy if we don't feed them." A third cook advised from the back.
"True. What do you want beastkin?" He asked her with a bit of disdain.

OoC: @Gear: I don't see past Furi. And you, Slenn, and Outis are listed as well. All listed in alphabetical order.
