Enter the apocolypse (Anyone)

OoC: Ok, I wish to fight with someone. I don't nessicerily care if your posts are long, they just need to be interesting and have detail. Karaza

BiC: The moon lit up the starry sky as it bounded of the salty water of the beach. The water did not move due to the lack of gale. Sand sparkled under flourescent moonlight while the trees of nearby cliffs stood tall and strong. No sound could be heard for there was not civilized life of anykind in the area. All was quiet, but how long could even the most silent quiet last?

A cloaked figure wearing a hood raced across the sandy, dark beach. Kicking up sand while he moved, he headed to a nearby cave. The cave was a formation in the rocky seaside cliff that was narrow and long. The entrance to the cave was a small hole in the rocks, just barely large enough for a small human man to fit into however, you could swim under the water and enter without hassle. The figure looked at the entrance to the pitch black cave, let out a sigh, but kept on moving. He jumped onto the side of the cliff and started moving as if gravity itself did not exist. He suddenly stopped moving, this in terms caused him to fall. He hit the water directly below the cave. The water was salty but overall calm. He began to swim farther into the cave.

The figure swam and swam through the narrow cave until he found a strange place in the cave that was much wider than the rest of it. The room was circular, and looked very much like the rest of the cave. The floor was comprised of sand which was damp because of large collections of water on the ceiling. This was probably caused by some sort of evapouration, however, the room was not warm, and the figure couldn't see why there would be evapouration occuring.

Karaza removed his hood and put his claws to the sand. "Damn, the jewel must be here somewhere." he said to himself as he continued digging for something he appearently thought was buried in the sand. He continued to dig for what he believed to be half an hour. He had dug a hole that looked to be five meters deep. He jumped out of the hole clutching something in his hands.

He smiled and opened his hand, a small, shiny, yellow rock lay there. "Yes, finally, the jewel of apocolypse. Now, to enter the apocolypse and gain what I seek." he exclaimed with a grin as he extended his jewel clutching hand. The jewel began to glow though his hand and soon he couldn't bare the light. He threw the jewel and watched as a swirling, yellow portal opened. The prtal seemed menacing and made the room rise in temperature dramatically. He smiled and walked cautionously into the portal, not knowing that someone followed close behind.

OoC: Ok, whoever posts can decide what the apocolypse is like. If you want, you can bend it to your advantage.

Also, sorry if my post was a little short.

OoC: I will fight you, linkrules. I am kinda bored. I am using my only character, Xantez. He's in my sig.

BiC: Xantez was travelling, looking for a place to stay to rest, and he ended up at a cave. It seemed to be narrow, but it was a good place to stay for the night. He entered, and walked into the cave.

Farther did Xantez go into the narrow cave, but as he walked more farther inside, he heard a swirling noise. Xantez was cautious, for the noise did not sound like a good one. He pulled out a sword from his sheath, and kept walking to the source.

Once Xantez got closer, the sound got louder. Suddenly, Xantez saw a portal, and a figure in a cloak, was standing right infront of the swirling void. Xantez hid behind a stone, and watched the figure walk into the yellow portal. Xantez then ran through the portal, before it closed, and what he saw inside, was not such a good sight.

What Xantez saw was hell. He saw a plain of darkness, reaching beyond the Horizon, and creatures, or skeletons of creatures, walking everywhere, with a look in their eyes that can freeze you in place, and turn you white. Xantez could not bare the horror of it all, but then he saw the cloaked person. He walked toward him, and the figure turned and stared at Xantez. He took off his hood from his head, and his nails were drawn out from his fingers. Xantez saw this horror, and could not believe his eyes.

"What is this monstrosity?" Xantez said to himself aloud, in a horrific voice.

OoC: I don't think your post was short. It was pretty long.

Karaza looked around at the void named the apocalypse. He appeared to be in a limitless room that was completely black. However, it was not at all dark. Karaza was able to see his full body as if he was a light in the darkness. Even though it was not the paradise he had once experienced, it gave him a calming feeling. He couldn’t even begin to imagine why people named this relaxing void “The apocalypse”. Perhaps it was based on a myth or legend, but for all Karaza could tell, it was nothing evil or ominous. He looked at the floor. It appeared that there was no floor at all. However, Karaza knew he was standing on something existent, so he kept on walking. Had it not been for gravity, Karaza would not be able to tell the floor from the ceiling.

Karaza kept walking along through the apocalypse, only stopping every several minutes to take a small look around. Unbeknownst to Karaza, he was being followed by a man who had slipped into the apocalypse whilst he wasn’t looking. Every time Karaza would stop, the man would do a roll to the side of the path in order to dodge being caught. As far as the man could tell, Karaza knew nothing of his presence, and as far as Karaza could tell, he was completely alone in the void. It seemed that being in such a calm place lowered Karaza’s instinctive reflexes.

The man walked on behind Karaza for what seemed for like an hour, but with being in a different dimension and all, it was hard for him to tell. He watched until Karaza stopped, but unlike usual, he did not look around, he just raised his hand and began chanting.

“Oh great power of the apocalypse, set yourself free into thy realm and cross the land once more.” he said, his hand still in the air. A purple sort of light started fuming in front of Karaza. The man couldn’t take it any longer, he stood up clutching a blaster. He fired several rounds at Karaza, however he managed to catch every shot without turning his head.

Karaza licked his lips as if to show he was annoyed and then slowly tilted his head towards the man. “Why did you do that. It was almost free, and then you disrupted my concentration. Now the force is freely flying through the apocalypse as we speak.” He asked in a dull tone, his eye now twitching. The man looked confused and did not answer. Karaza’s face lit up red.

“Who are you?” he got no response, “Who are you!?!” he said, now down right furious. The man took a step back and put his blaster away, “I’m Xantez Narmios. I came here and became stranded when I left from my home planet. I followed you into this void because I thought it might lead to my home planet. What was that purple light just now?” he asked, still looking baffled.

Karaza’s calmed down a little, but still looked angry. “That’s was the power of the apocalypse. It gives the beholder the ability to bend reality however they see fit. I was going to harness it, but then you came along.” he explained, obviously annoyed with the intrusion of Xantez.

However, Xantez was not satisfied with this explanation and kept questioning, “What will happen now that it’s set loose?” he asked, putting his hand to his head. Karaza moved closer, bit by bit.

“Well, it can’t leave the apocalypse without a host, so at least we won’t lose it. Now that it’s free, anyone within the apocalyspe will be able to bend it’s reality. However, in order for me to attain the apocalypse, you have to leave.” he slowly explained.

Xantez frowned, “I don’t know how to leave, and even if I did, why should I listen to you? I could attain the power myself.” he said, now sounding confident.

“Well, in order for you to leave, I have to knock you unconscious in the void, and then you’ll be sent back to our dimension. Should you try to stop me, I’ll do more than just knock you out. Get it?” he taunted very mockingly.

Xantez smiled a faint grin and drew his sword. “Fine, but in order to get rid of me, you’ll have to beat me fair and square. Just to let you know, I don’t intend to let you win.”

OoC: Ok, now that we’ll fight, you can conjure items, or change the setting, whatever you want. But remember, so can Karaza.

BiC: Xantez was in a ready position, and expected anything that may happen. The white-skinned figure had his nails drawn from his fingers, and so was he ready for battle. Xantez gripped his sword even harder, and charged at the man. He swiped his sword, but luckily for the white-skinned man, Xantez missed once the figure ducked, and the man jumped in the air. The man swiped his hands in front of him, hoping to hit Xantez, but Xantez blocked it with his sword. They both jumped back, and breathed pretty hard.

"You are a skilled fighter," the man said to Xantez.

"Thank you. You are very well-trained, as well," Xantez said. "But I still do not know your name."

"I am Karaza," the man said.

"Well, now I know."

They charged at each other, and they clashed like lightning. They were in a cross with their weapons, and tried to push each other down.

"I will never be defeated," Xantez said, as they were struggling to push themselves down.

"As so will I not," Karaza said.

OoC: Right, sorry it took so long.

BiC: Xantez looked at Karaza, "You may be a good fighter, but even you can't beat the power to bend reality." he said as he raised his hand. As he did so, Karaza watched as an enormous jet formed in the dark air. It was far bigger than a truck and appeared to be used in the army or some sort. Karaza watched as the cockpit opened and Xantex jumped in.

"You may be strong, but I'm a great pilot. It's been so long since I've flown, and it feels great to be back at the wheel." he said as the cockpit door closed and he lit the engines. Karaza watched, he was fast, but even he would have trouble catching up with a jet. He knew it was doable, he just hadn't expected it to be such a task. He extended his claws as the jet took flight and began to heads towards him. Karaza jumped up and tried to land on the massive jet, but it picked up speed and he landed back on the ground. He turned around, with his leg still extended outwards only to see Xantez coming at him in the jet. This time around, he seperated his particles and phased through the jet, and then grabbed onto the thrusters. He hopped onto the top of the jet only to see what had happened as a result.

"You burnt right through my hand. Hopefully yo have a better scheme than this if you want the power of the apocalypse, for I'm not going to lose to a hunk of metal." he exclaimed as he watched his charred hand regenerate bit by bit. He moved his way up the jet, Xantex now aware of his pressence. The jet began to do many twirls and flips in order to toss Karaza off, but he merely dug deeper into the metal to stick on. He eventually made his way to the glass and hit it with his fist. However, the glass was created to be unbreakable and his fist merely bounded off. But Karaza kept at it. He pounded at the glass and felt the vibrations, but no difference. He then phased his hand through the glass and shot a psi blast at Xantez's chest. The psi made contact and disrupted his concentration. Xantez's jet thus dissapeared.

"Fine, maybe this will be harder that I thought. However, don't expect me to give up." taunted Xantez and Karaza walked to the now earth bound warrior.

BiC: "You may think I want the apocolipse, but you are mistaken." Xantez stood there, in front of Karaza. "I am a man of good, and I use nothing of an evil sort." He was ready for another attack. Karaza smiled, and said,

"Wise choice, for no one can use the apocolipse." He darted at Xantez, ready to pierce him with his weapon. Xantez was ready to block. Again, they clashed into each other, with their weapons at a cross once again.

"Tell me, Xantez," Karaza started to ask. "Why not stop this, and let us both leave, and find away out of this place of death?"

"If I leave you alone," Xantez said. "You will try to obtain the apocolipse, and use it at your own will." He then kicked Karaza in the leg, and made him kneel down in front of him. Xantez put the tip of his sword at the throat of Karaza, and said,

"However, I will not let you do that."

Karaza looked at the blade that was bestowed upon his neck. He smiled and taunted Xantez to slice his throaght, but Xantez already knew that he was able to regenerate and thus took his sword away. Karaza looked around the apocalypse, he saw blackness all around. Xantez had conjured a jet, but he hadn't yet shifted reality. Karaza jumped backwards out of reach and lifted his hand. Xantez watched as the very ground beneath his feet turned to sand. The darkness that was the air turned into a bright blue sky which held a bright sun dearly. Around the ground on which they stood, water rose and engulfed great amounts of the sand. Xantez looked around and realised that he was on a small sand dune in the middle of the ocean. He looked at Karaza and smiled as if he had known it was coming. And in doing what Karaza had done, he conjured up another jet, however, this one appeared different. It was much thicker and looked almost armored. Once more he hopped into the jet and lit the ignition. Karaza watched as the jet took off and motored into the water. It began to submerge as if it was a combination between a jet and a submarine. Karaza smiled for he was no longer fighting with rage, he was fighting for fun.

"It's been too long since I've fought for fun." he said as he lifted himself into the air using telekinesis. He then turned himself sideways and whipped towards the water at high speed. He took a minute to feel the crisp, salty water against his face as he made a line of waves, he could see the now tiny sand dune dissapearing from sight. He lowered himself farther, taking in a large breath. He was moving at a faster pace than the jet had been, so he would soon catch up. He looked forwards, still moving at a mach speed in the depths of the ocean. He could see small schools of fish and tiny creature on the ocean floor as he lowered inch by inch. It didn't take long for him to spot Xantez's jet sub thingie(?). He approached it still with great speed and raced to the window. He wasn't his normal self, he seemed almost cheery, perhaps an effect of the apocalypse. He waved to Xantez through the cockpit as he swam along side of it. Xantez returned signals by giving him a salute of sorts. The two continued racing for a few seconds until Xantez pulled a sharp turn. Kaaza stopped moving and looked in his direction. He was heading for a deep pit that lead even farthur under. He was still fine air wise, but the water pressure was getting worse by the inch, going into a canyon that deep could crush him. However, he also couldn't let Xantez get away. He took a dangerous risk by focusing most of his stored energy. This would make it bearable, but it would drain him a great deal. He followed into the under sea trench until he caught up with Xantez.

Although they were under water, Karaza's ears could still hear Xantez's voice. "Still following me huh? Well, you can only go so deep." he whispered as Karaza followed deeper and deeper. By now it was pitch black, but Karaza's eyes allowed him to continue, unfortunately for Xantez, even his lights of the jet weren't enough to penetrate the deep darkness. He began to pull upwards in order to return to the surface. However, without being able to see, he crashed into the wall of the trench. He looked on as water begaqn to penetrate the sheild. He tried to shift himself back to the surface, but the water broke his concentration. He was knocked unconscious by the immense pressure of the sea. Karaza swam to the jet and punched the already fractured glass. He could see how the pressure was effecting Xantez so he ignited a psi barrier around them. He swam as fast as he could to the surface and didn't stop until they breached the air. He focused his eyes with all his might on the island that was far out of sight. He moved as fast as he could to the island and hit it in a blur of moist sand. He laid Xantex on the ground and watched as he coughed up water and regained consciousness.

OoC: Hope you don't mind that there's not a lot of dialog.

OoC: No i don't mind

BiC: As Xantez regained conciousness, he couldn't believe that Karaza saved him, and the fact that he was alive. I thought Karaza was a man of darkness, Xantez thought to himself. Why did he save me?

"Are you ok, Xantez," Karaza asked him.

"Yeah, thanks to you," Xantez said, smiling. "Shall we continue our battle?"

"Are you sure," Karaza asked. "You do not look like you are well to fight."

"I'm fine," Xantez replied. "Let's just continue our fight."

"If you say so."

Xantez stood on his feet slowly, feeling a bit dizzy, but fine. He drew his long sword, and stood in a ready position. Karaza did the same. They had their weapons up in a defensive position, and were ready for the unexpected. However, Xantez dropped his guard, and closed his eyes, beginning to concentrate. Karaza was confussed.

"What are you doing, Xantez?" Karaza asked Xantez in amazement. Unfortunately, Xantez answered in no way. He was in a deep trance, and then suddenly opened his eyes. He slowly moved his hands around in front of him, forming something. Karaza became more confussed, since he knew of nothing of what was going on. What Xantez was forming in front of him seemed to be a chinese symbol. After he was done, light outlined the symbol, and it became brighter, and brighter. Then suddenly, it shot out at Karaza, as he was just standing there in fear. Is this the end, Karaza asked himself. Am I going to die in a place of chaos? But just as Karaza thought that nothing would get worse than it was, Karaza then spotted a dark figure in the blast of light, charging at him. It came closer to him, and closer. Once it came more clear, all Karaza could do is stare at the blast in fear. Xantez came charging at him, from amidst the blast. What will happen to me now, Karaza asked himself in fear.

Karaza watched as the figure inside the flames moved forward and forward until he was about a meter away. "Light-Blast Kamikazee!" shouted Xantez as he hit Karaza head on. As Xantez landed a ways back on the ground, Karaza was sent flying backwards and landed not on his feet, but on his back as he knocked up sand. Karaza lost concentration and the ocean which surrounded them dissapeared and the world reverted back to darkness. Karaza could no longer smell the salty water and without the sound of waves, he could hear Xantez's every move. It would make it much easier to fight and to concentrate. He did a small jerk on the ground and flipped back onto his feet. He smiled and put his finger to his fore head. Before Xantex knew what was happening, Karaza dissapeared from sight. He was about to run to where Karaza had dissapeared, but he was knocked to the ground when he felt a great pain in his knee. Karaza had kicked him from behind when he had reappeared there.

"So, you want to fight do you. Well, I'm able to warp the apocalypse just as you are." Xantex informed Karaza as he stood up and turned around. He then closed his eyes and started to concentrate. Karaza was about to stop him when he began to fall. As he fell, he could see the darkness turning into a light blue sky. When he looked downwards he saw a forest, however it was much down, and falling at a high speed it would take several minutes reach ground. Xantez had shifted reality and he too was now falling. Karaza looked at him and laughed.

"Fool, what do you intend to accomplish. I can fly, however, when you hit the bottom, you will not be as fortunate." Karaza taunted Xantez as he watched him fall. Falling at such a speed caused Karaza's hair to fly upwards out of his face. Xantez did not seem worried, he merely kept falling. As the two continued falling, Karaza air swam his way over to Xantez took a slice at him. His claws made contact but just barely. A small trickle of blood could be seen smudging Xantez' shirt. Xantez drew his blaster and took shots at Karaza. Three made contact and charred his skin and burnt holes through his shirt.

The ground was now approaching fast and Karaza could clearly see vines and leaves on trees. It truly appeared that if Xantez did not do something fast, he would hit the ground very hard. Karaza taunted him and before they hit the ground Xantez conjured another jet in which he landed. As the jet pulled away from the ground Karaza smiled for he could now use his speed to do something useful.

OoC: Sorry if that's hard to understand. I'm having trouble detailing my writing lately.

OoC: I can understand it clearly. But you made my character sound a bit evil at one part.

BiC: Xantez then lifted up into the air in his jet, and once high enough, he did a U-turn, and went straight for Karaza. Karaza was on the ground, and he started to run fast, away from the ship so that he does not get hit. Xantez saw what he was doing, and he knew what will defeat him. He put the controls to auto-pilot, and he closed his eyes once more. Karaza saw this from far away, and was wondering what Xantez would do this time. Xantez concentrated as hard as possible, for he did not want to fail this. As the ship was charging at Karaza, Karaza could not stop wondering what Xantez was trying to do.

Then suddenly, Xantez opened his eyes quickly, and put the controls to manual. He flew the jet at Karaza at high speed, and he had a serious look on his face. What is he trying to do? Karaza was very confused, for he wasn't sure if this was an attack, or a trick. As Karaza was running, he ran into a tree, not noticing it as he watched the jet going straight for him. He struggled to get up quickly, before he gets hit, but his legs felt numb. What's happened? Karaza knew nothing like this could happen to him. He then figured that Xantez must be manipulating the apocolipse to numb his legs completely. This can't be the end. Not yet. The jet came closer to Karaza, as he was watching it come closer, and closer. Once the ship came in contact, a giant explosion happened. A giant cloud of smoke was floating from the crash sight. Just then, a dark figure was in the smoke. He walked toward the crash sight. He looked down at the piles of scrap metal, all around the area. He looked for Karaza, but he was no where in sight. That figure...was Xantez.

OoC: Thank you Umilink, but next time, you should try to keep it to a private message. I don't mind, and I'm sure Inu-Yasha doesn't either, but some day you might do it and some member could get really mad. Meh, no harm done ^.^

BiC: As Xantez emerged from the cloud of dust, a small smile appeared on his face. He wasn't proud of what he'd done. But if Karaza was killed in the apocalypse he wouldn't die, or atleast that's what Xantex thought to himself. The smile remained on his face, however, he did not rejoice, for he knew that somewhere in the reckage of the jet, lay Karaza in the midst of healing himself. He drew hims long blade and prepared for battle. However, as the dust cleared, Xantez was unable to see Karaza's figure. He didn't dare let his guard down for one second, for he knew Karaza was fast and could strike at any moment.

"Come out Karaza, I know you're hiding, and I'm ready for you." Xantez informed Karaza as he examined the reckage. Xantez hadn't heard him, so that meant he hadn't tried to move, yet, why wasn't he emerging. By now the smile on his face had all but faded. Xantez couldn't even figure out why he was in the dark, why didn't he just clear the reckage. He closed his eyes and by the time they were open, the crash site was cleared and a wounded Karaza sat at the foot of a tree covered in silver blood. Xantez know knew that Karaza had no tricks for he was breathing heavily and appeared to be losing much blood from his shoulder. He rushed over to him and got down to his knee.

He went to touch Karaza's shoulder but recieved a look of dissapproval. "Karaza, why are you losing so much blood. You are able to regenerate, are you not?" he asked as the blood turned blakc and then evapourated into a thick smoked. Xantez covered his mouth to avoid the toxic fumes. Karaza's breathing could now be heard from a distance and Xantez grew frustrated.

Karaza could see the look uncertainty on Xantez's face and explained, "The jet hit me hard." he said with a chuckle, but was then cut off by pain. "I was pierced all over my body. I was able to pick out almost all of it, but I missed a piece of metal. It sunk into my skin, which then healed around it. I've lost much blood and my claws are now unable to pierce my skin." by now he was almost unconscious. As his eye lids closed, Karaza could feel a great pain in his shoulder, not from the metal stuck inside, but from something else. As he opened his eyes once more, he saw Xantez cutting through his skin. It was taking much effort, but he was indeed cutting through the rubbery armor that was Karaza's skin.

At first Karaza thought he meant to deliver the final blow, but as he took what he thought to be his last few breaths, he saw that Xantez was taking out the piece of metal that had been stuck in his right shoulder. Before long, Karaza's arm slowly began to heal after the metal was out. He had still lost blood, and was thus weak, but he was no longer bleeding. As he stood up, he looked at Xantez with a glint in his eyes.

"You are a true man. You spared me instead of letting me die there. Had it been you in that position, I probably wouldn't have spared you. However, now I see why it is not a stupid concept to spare another's life, and I will remember that." Karaza thanked Xantez as he lifted his groggy self up. His system was much faster than a humans, and thus his blood was returning to normal, but he was still dizzy from the experiance.

Xantez drew his sword, "It was the honourable thing to do. I wouldn't have wanted to win out little battle that way anyway. What say you we continue?" he asked Karaza. Karaza smiled and extended his claws. It appeared the fight would indeed continue.

OoC: I didn't mind umilink posting in this thread.

BiC: "There is one thing that is bothering me," Karaza said to Xantez, facing him standing up. "How did you escape from the cockpit before it crashed into me?"

"It's quite simple, really," Xantez started to answer. "I made time slow down for myself, so I had time to get out of the cockpit before it crashed."

"Interesting," Karaza was amazed at the trick that was pulled by Xantez. "But now, you have nothing to pull on me anymore."

"Unfortunately, that is true," Xantez replied. "But I can still fight."

"But I will still win this battle. You will see soon enough."

"Oh, we'll see about that," Xantez grinned.

Both were ready to fight, and both had their guard up. However, Xantez let his guard down, as Karaza looked at him in confusion.

"There is something I should tell you, however," Xantez told Karaza. "Since you know I can use the apocolipse, then I have one more plan to beat you." Xantez concentrated, and then they were morphed into the sky, very high above the ground.

"Fool! What are you doing?" Karaza asked, angrily. "You will kill yourself like this."

"I can sky dive, and use the air at my advantage, any way I would like. Something I learned in the military." Xantez then started to charge at Karaza at a very high speed.

Karaza watched as Xantez's body flew towards his own. The soaring and cutting of the air around him could be Xantez pierced it with great speed. As he connected with Karaza he rose his fist and hit him in the face. The force from the hit sent Xantez a little backwards and knocked Karaza straight over. As Karaza spun in the air, he could see the ground that was still very far away. Xantez had not warped reality for it was still the forest that Xantez had created, he had merely warped them upwards. Suddenly, Karaza's body flung around with great speed so that he faced Xantez. Karaza was using telekinesis to hold himself straight. Xantez smiled as he saw a hint of silver blood drip from Karaza's nose.

Karaza wiped the blood away with a smile and a laugh. "Not bad. You made me bleed without crashing a jet into me," he joked. "but even if you can sky dive, I can fly. How do you intend to keep up with me?" asked Karaza as Xantez once more charged at him from the sky, this time attempting a drop kick. Just as he thought that he would connect with Karaza's face, he flew higher up into the air thus causing Xantez to miss. Xantez let out another smile as he looked up at Karaza and then down to the green forest below. He estimated that they had another five minutes at this speed. He smiled and then began to concentrate. Karaza laughed at him as he saw the blinding light coming towards him. As Karaza braced himself for the attempt of Xantez, he noticed something different about the symbol. It did not look like it had before, it was actually much bigger. Before Karaza had time to move, he felt the immense weight of the jet crash through the bright symbol and into his body.

Xantez's voice could be heard through the glass of the cockpit, "Well Karaza, that's what you get for believing that I'm predictable." he said as he increased speed. However, he bacme a little worried as a trickle of Karaza's blood hit the windsheild and then turned smoke black. He couldn't help but thinking that he'd gone too far, but he also knew that he was in a battle and mercy could be the end of him if he was not careful. A surprised look crawled onto Xantez's face as Karaza put on a smile. He couldn't figure out why he'd be smiling. The jet was moving fo fast over the lush forest that Karaza's body would be pinned to front of the jet, that had been his pla all along, how could he be smiling? His question was answered as Karaza body quickly became almost transparent and began to make his way through the metal. It was like he was a ghost, and even though Xantez had seen him do this once before, he had trouble grasping the concept. As Karaza's head peered into the cockpit, Xantez knew he was in for a struggle.
