S: mmhm.. he's breathing really hard. I can't tell any vet to look at him, or anything.. they might find out he's not.. a normal horse.

L: Aww =/ *pulls him close, resting his head on her chest and kisses the top of his head*

S: *puts his arm around her and sighs* =/ he's like.. a companion, we've been through alot together, he hasn't failed me. Remember.. remember the time, when you almost got killed by that crazy bitch?

L: *gasps* Seth, I... Why are you even thinking about this now? =/

S: *sighs and bows his head a little* I'm sorry...

S: I know.. sweetie.. *strokes her cheek..* I know..

L: *sheds a few tears* I wish we could be together forever... I... dunno if I could bear to lose you... =/

S: *sits up and closes his eyes, holding her tightly*

L: I might just... kill myself and join you, when the time comes...

S: wha..? No.. you can't..

L: It'll be as if I never was an elf...

S: *clings to her and starts crying afresh* Don't.. I love you for who you are... understand..?

L: *cries as well* Yes, but... How can I go on living, having fun... *winces* making love... When you'll be dead? =/

S:*rests his chin on her shoulder and holds her tight*... but.. you can't kill yourself..

L: *sobs slightly* Why not?

S: Because.. you have to..live.. do it for me =/

L: You mean... you wouldn't mind me making love to someone... else, when you're dead? *tears stream down her cheeks*

S: as much as it hurts.. to say it now.. It would be best for you if you tried to move on when I'm.. gone..

L: *cries uncontrollably* Seth... there's no way you can be so understanding... No-one is... >.< I don't deserve you!

S: *closes his eyes..and hugs her tight* ... I love you.. I'm not letting you go =/

L: Oh Seth... *stuffs her face into his shoulder, and cries her heart out*

S: *holds her tightly to him* Shh..

L: I love you...

S: I love you too..

L: *looks up at him, her eyes swollen by crying*

S: *rests his forehead against hers*..

L: *leans slightly into him, their lips millimeters apart*

S: *kisses her softly and lets a tear from his eye flow unto her cheek*

L: *kisses back slowly, and gently pushes him under her*

S: *wraps his arms around her and breaks the kiss softly, holding her tightly*

L: *looks into his eyes, smiling*

S: *smiles a little at her* I love you.

Double post! But with a reason!

Savirox Fanaren: L: So, I hear you like a guy called Raven :P Is that true?

Etherwinter Rain: A: eheh ^^; *Slight giggle, blushes* Well.. I... uhm *blush*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *chuckles* It's not something you need to be shy about, sweetie :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles and blushes a little more, raising her hand to her face, over her lips*

Savirox Fanaren: L: So... does he know?

Etherwinter Rain: A: *shakes her head slightly and quickly*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Aw, but why?

Etherwinter Rain: A: um.. *blushes, and whispers, lowering her gaze* I.. just.. haven't told him yet, that's all..

Savirox Fanaren: L: Well, will you? Postponing it might mean that one day it would become too late to express your feelings

Etherwinter Rain: A: mmhm.. *bites her bottom lip softly*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Trust me, being in love is an amazing experience, like me and Sethy *goes slightly dreamy-eyed*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles at Larena's dreamy-eyedness*

Etherwinter Rain: A: al-.. alrig-... achoo! *as she sneezes, her wings pop out of her back and feathers fly everywhere* Ohh.. *suddenly realizes Larena is standing there* oh! *quivers nervously and takes a step back*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *goes wide-eyed* You have wings? o.o

Etherwinter Rain: A: *nods quickly and puts her hand over her mouth* mmhm

Savirox Fanaren: L: *smiles playfuly and moves closer with a curious glint in her eyes* Wow, let me see!

Etherwinter Rain: A: huh? o.0;.. okay.. *moves a little closer to Larena*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *smiles childishly as she runs her hands down the frame of the wings*

Etherwinter Rain: A: hehe.. *spreads her wings a little more*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *gently caresses the tips of her wings and ruffles trough her feathers*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles softly and looks down* some people.. don't take them so nicely..

Savirox Fanaren: L: *brings one wing against her face and nuzzles it* So soft... ^.^ *looks at Arina* But why not? They're beautiful...

Etherwinter Rain: A: hehe.. thank you.. and well.. they think.. I'm some kind of freak or something.. I suppose =/

Etherwinter Rain: A: I know.. but it's okay, really ^^

Savirox Fanaren: L: *smiles and runs another finger down her cheek* Good ^.^

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles and blushes slightly at her gesture*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Now then, anymore secrets I should know about? :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: Well.. uhm.. *telepathically* I can do this! ^^;

Savirox Fanaren: L: *gasps*

Etherwinter Rain: A: mmhm.. *looks down a little*

Savirox Fanaren: L: That's... amazing

Etherwinter Rain: A: *softly* hehe, thank you..

Savirox Fanaren: L: Hey hey, you should be proud of yourself, okay? =/

Etherwinter Rain: A: I am, I love my abilities.. oh.. and.. there's.. one more, actually.. *her wings extend to their full length as her body transforms. Her hands become talons and her legs turn into a feathery tail as her whole body become covered in feathers*

Savirox Fanaren: L: o.o Wow... *steps back slightly*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *closes her eyes and flaps her wings gently*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *moves closer and pensively extends an arm*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *looks at Larena, talking to her telepathically* Well, go on.. I don't bite

Savirox Fanaren: L: *chuckles and gingerly places her hand on Arina's head, stroking gently*

Etherwinter Rain: A: ^^; there, that wasn't so hard.

Savirox Fanaren: L: *laughs*

Etherwinter Rain: A: Uhm.. where in the park do you have to meet your.. uhm.. boyfriend?

Savirox Fanaren: L: Um... next to the fountain. Why? o.o

Etherwinter Rain: A: *kneels down and bows her head a little* Get on.

Savirox Fanaren: L: *goes wide-eyed* Really?

Etherwinter Rain: A: mmhm!

Savirox Fanaren: L: *takes a deep breath and straddles over her, *holding tightly with her thighs* Don't drop me ^.^;

Etherwinter Rain: A: hehehe, okay. Hang on tight. Ready?

Savirox Fanaren: L: *nods*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *flaps her wings and lets out a small screech as she pushes off the ground, taking to the air*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *cries out in surprise*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles in her mind, taking her higher and out of sight, so people wouldn't be startled at this large creature flying overhead*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Wow... This... this is amazing!

Etherwinter Rain: A: *lets out a small screech without thinking to show her agreement*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *laughs happily*

Etherwinter Rain: A: Okay! Here's your stop! *begins a descending into a bushy area a little way off from the fountain*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Whoooo! *shouts excitedly*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *lands softly on the ground, flapping her wings gently*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *gently dismounts her* That was awesome, Arina ^.^

Etherwinter Rain: A: *leans back on her tail and begins to change back into a normal looking girl*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *smiles at her*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *giggles softly and dusts a feather or two off her skirt* hehe, you're welcome

Savirox Fanaren: L: ^.^ Well then, I'd better get going. Wanna escort me there?

Etherwinter Rain: A: Sure ^.^

Savirox Fanaren: L: *starts walking towards the fountain*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *walks beside her while fixing her skirt neatly*

Savirox Fanaren: L: You know... When you break the news to Raven... make sure you seal it with a kiss :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: huh?! o.o; *mega-blush*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *chuckles* You know how to kiss, right? :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: I.. um.. never.. kissed.. before.. uh.. *cheeks flare red with embarrasment*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *giggles* Really? Not once?

Etherwinter Rain: A: *shakes her head quickly, still blushing*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Well, that's simply unacceptable, dahling :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: It is? *still blushing*

Savirox Fanaren: L: I'm now completely convinced you need to nail this Raven while he's still available :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: uhh? *blush*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *chuckles* I meant get in a relationship with him :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: ohh! I.. knew that *smiles nervously, but her cheeks flare once more with embarassment*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *laughs* The rest will come naturally :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: *goes slightly wide eyed, face still red*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *giggles* Btw... I could teach you a few kissing techniques, if you'd like ^.^

Etherwinter Rain: A: Ahh! *stumbles backward slightly* uhm.. no.. *smiles nervously* thank you..

Savirox Fanaren: L: *laughs* I said teach you, not *show* you :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: hehe.. oh ^^; .. I don't know.. what to say *laughs nervously*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *grins and moves closer, and starts whispering into her ear*

Etherwinter Rain: A: huh..?

Etherwinter Rain: A: *cheeks flare once again* ahh..!

Savirox Fanaren: L: *moves back and giggles*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *raises her hand to her lips, face still red*

Savirox Fanaren: L: If you do that, he'll never forget your first kiss :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: *cheeks burning red, hands still over her lips.. nods slightly*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Now then, how about a demonstration? :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: uh!? o.o; *still blushing*

Savirox Fanaren: L: *laughs*

Etherwinter Rain: A: *cheeks red* Stop it! ^^;

Savirox Fanaren: L: You're too easy to tease :P

Etherwinter Rain: A: ^^; *blushes slightly*

Savirox Fanaren: L: Oh, there's Seth *grins*

Etherwinter Rain: A: Oh! Well, I guess I'll be going now :P

Savirox Fanaren: L: Okay. Nice talking to you. And thanks for the ride ^.^

RPers' comments:

Etherwinter Rain: ( Cute, eh? X3 )

Savirox Fanaren: ( OMG... x.x )

OoC: Wielder's making me post. So blame him for the thread revival or whatever. This is an RP between my character, Sarah, and Sakume's characters Con and Jackie. (Well, technically, a portion of an RP, but still. XP)

BiC: ((We start off with Con and Sarah sitting and talking. ))

"Mhm..." He looked at her. "Your turn. Go ahead, reveal to me your life story. I won't mind."

She chuckled a bit. "I'm afraid it's not nearly so interesting as what you've told me. But I'll share what there is to share, in any case."

"Good, good!" Con straightened himself. "But not here. Let's go somewhere more comfortable. Besides, I think it's about to rain." He looked westward. "The town is that way, and they have several inns there. If you'd like, we could rent a temporary stay."

Sarah glanced up. The clouds did seem to be getting pretty dark... "All right," she replied. "Though.. I don't have much money, and it's probably not whatever currency you use around here in any case."

"Doesn't matter." Con said, his smile turning slightly strange. "There is one inn that will always accept me. Just trust me."

The young woman noted his smile, and chuckled a bit. "Okay then." She stood, dusting herself off. "Lead the way."

"Good." He made his way around town as if he slunk about the obstacles all the time. He headed past the inn of the town, instead going to what looked like a very unhealthy and unmoral place, with the name, Red Robin. He opened the door for Sarah. "After you."

She walked in, glancing around. The... interesting character of the place did not surprise her much, considering what Con had said about it. All the same, she was glad she wasn't entering alone.

He followed behind her, and gripped her shoulders somewhat tightly, shielding her nearly. He guided her past several doors with questionable sounds coming from behind them, into a bar-like setting. He then set her on a stool in front of a counter, looking her in the eyes. "Don't talk to anyone. You are not a tool. I'll be back in a minute. I have to find someone." Without another word, he parted.

Sarah blinked, as he hurried away. "Uh... right then." She folded her arms on the counter in front of her, waiting for him to get back. She noticed a few guys looking at her out of the corner of her eye, but ignored them. If anyone DID try anything... well, she always had her daggers.

Con scoured the building as best as he knew how, greeting several others who recognized him. "Where are you?" he asked softly, reaching the end of the second floor. Meanwhile, a figure had caught sight of Sarah alone in the bar and was watching her closely. She flipped over the counter and sauntered over to the girl, wiping a mug with a rag. "You new around here, hun?"

Sarah glanced at her, remembering Con's words. *Don't talk to anyone.* But.. "I just stopped by with a friend."

Before the woman could reply right away, a soft tune of music struck up in the background, that of a violin. The woman irked an eyebrow towards it. She seemed like a middle-aged woman, or close to it. Maybe in her late twenties. Her black, slightly greasy hair was put up in a ponytail behind her, a tan blazer of her white blouse. Hoops hung from each of her ears. "Friend?" she asked Sarah, a tone rivaling that of dislike in her question. "What friend? How'd you get in here?" She seemed generally unfriendly, but not quite hostile. She also seemed to have caught sight of the men watching Sarah.

Sarah looked at her, an eyebrow raised at the unfriendly, demanding tone. "My business is my own," she stated flatly. "I don't need to explain myself to you."

"I'd say otherwise." She replied, but her irked eyebrow slowly lowered, her expression becoming less disliking. "You have attitude, girl. I like that. You're not a sniveling little fawn like most girls around here. You show your pride out there on your shoulder." The woman whirled suddenly upon the men. "WELL?! What are you all staring at? Don't make me call for another round of roulette! You know you don't want that!" The men nearly stumbled over one another to escape the woman's gaze. She turned back to Sarah. "Sorry, hun. The men around here are like magnets. They see breasts, they can't help but be magnitized. You want somethin?"

"Oh, all the men around here are like that. You have to get used to how you treat them. Once they go through a round of roulette, it's over. No one wants that... specially not with him around." Although she wasn't assuming this girl to be one of them, she understood that she had attitude, and if that was true, she was probably not one of the ones used for the pleasure of the men...

Sarah looked at her, curiosity battling Con's earlier warnings. Curiosity won out. "A round of roulette?" she asked.

She really wasn't from around here if she didn't know that. By now, she was getting slightly suspicious of the girl. "Of course. The way we're all told apart from one another. Tell me, girl... what's the password?" Lazily, the woman took a pistol from her jeans and a bullet from the right side of her pants, letting it roll repeatedly on the counter as she smiled. "Surely you'd know."

Sarah sighed, acting unconcerned, though paying close attention to the gun in the girl's hand. Under the counter, her hand lay close to her dagger, waiting to draw it if it should prove necessary. "Really now," she said. "If you wished to ask for passwords, wouldn't it make a hell of a lot more sense to do that at the entrance?"

Hm. She's smart, this one. But obviously not one of us. How shall I get her to come with me without causing a fuss? I don't want anyone to get killed. "Heh. You are definitely not a regular, or you wouldn't have asked that. So..." She easily slipped the bullet into the gun. "Are you going to come quietly? Or are you just going to make things difficult?" She really didn't want to hurt this girl.

Sarah frowned at her. "Make things difficult? This from the one drawing a gun?" She looked at her, clearly not intending to move. "I said it earlier, I don't need to explain myself to you." *There's no way in hell I'm leaving before Con gets back.*

"Just because you don't have to explain yourself, doesn't mean you won't be coming with me. I'll ask you one more time. Are you coming quietly?" She lifted the pistol to Sarah's forehead, clicking it, her finger resting on the trigger. *Please don't make me do this... *

*Aha... then again, I guess Con will understand.* She was silent for a moment... there was no way that she could draw her daggers before the woman could pull the trigger. "Very well."

"Good." She kept the gun barrel against the girl's flesh, vaulting over the bar and noticing the daggers. "Heh, planning to fight back, but you didn't. Smart girl." She didn't take the weapons, but she did force Sarah's hands behind her using one of her own hands. She began to lead her behind the bar, to a dead end. The light from candles that originally illuminated the hallway began to fade.

Sarah walked without struggling, thinking fast. "So, *hun*," she began, accenting the word that the woman had used earlier. "Do you regularly attempt to kidnap girls here, or am I your first?"

"Not the first by far." She remarked, leaning against the wall. It began to move. Like a trapdoor, it swirled around, leading them to a rather loud, still dimly lit place. "I know you're not one of us... you asked about the roulette earlier. Well. I think you'll see just what it is soon enough." The chatter of voices, male and female, could be heard not too far off, along with a jaunty tune from a piano. She guided Sarah up what looked like a small staircase onto a wooden floor and then backed her against a smooth surface.

"Oh no. It's not about you being a pawn. It's about teaching you a lesson, you scum. Spying on us, no doubt." She hoisted Sarah's wrists into what felt like clamps, and then spread apart her feet the same way. She backed off a little, smiling wryly as movement occurred. The surface to which Sarah was against began to shift upwards slightly, and a parting revealed a curtain being pulled back.

"Yes... of course. I came into a tavern to SPY. That's the only reason anyone goes into a tavern, how silly of me to have forgotten." Though her tone was derisive, and she kept a cool demeanor, the young woman's heart was beating fast in her chest. *D*mmit, Con, what sort of place have you led me into? >>*

"What, like you don't know about it all.." *Come on... give me a sign... show me you're innocent... show them...* A crowd of people was revealed, all of them with a mug or girl by them. "Well... we've got another one. Who wants to see another roulette roll?" It was then that the lights were cued, to reveal Sarah strapped to a large wheel. "I'm sure you've heard of these, haven't you?" she asked Sarah coolly. "You throw knives, right? Oh, but don't worry. I never miss. Well, almost never. Whatever we land on... that's where the fun is." She commented, smiling. Different symbols were on the wheel, looking to be recently added. A ladder, a cat, a quilt, and other symbols dotted the random lines. "Let's spin."

Sarah's jaw tightened. She didn't know what the hell this girl was on about, but she didn't intend to humor her.. Besides, she had to keep her concentration up, in case it looked like one of those knives might be coming towards her. She hadn't had much practice with changing things at a moment's notice... hopefully what she'd had was enough.

She backed away, and with a nod from her, came one man from each side, one pushing and the other pulling at the same, enough to get the momentum to spin Sarah slightly. The woman took a knife from beside her, wincing. What if she hit something terrible? He would listen, wouldn't he? Normally he didn't... but that was all her fault. She couldn't miss... but she could make it miss the girl. At least that way, it wouldn't be her fault, but his if he did anything. It zipped through the air, heading straight for a section between Sarah's legs, the largest portion with the cat on it. *Please listen to me... please don't be so stubborn... she even looks...* Meanwhile, Con found himself pressured into a corner. "You're wanted."

Sarah watched the knife, waiting for the smallest sign that she'd need to alter it's path. Fortunately for her, it was never an issue... it thunked into the wood, hitting a section between her legs. She closed her eyes briefly, thanking whoever there was to listen.

Gasps emitted from the crowd, and then cheers. The woman bowed slightly as the curtain closed. She hastily walked over to Sarah, the men still watching. Prying the dagger out of the wood, she set it aside, also taking Sarah's daggers and holding them herself. With a quick twist, she released Sarah, careful to clip the belt with the daggers around herself first before cocking her pistol once more and helping the poor, probably very dizzy girl to her feet. She began to lead her again, but this time not far. To a door, just behind the stage, and a small room. Hardly any light entered it, and a chair with bolts was in the middle. "Sit." She ordered, as the crowd outside began to chant a word.

Sarah glared as the woman took her daggers, but said nothing. Wordlessly, but shooting periodic venemous glares at the woman, she sat in the chair. "So what now?" she asked.

The woman set the gun aside, as well as the daggers. She ignored the bloody stains on the floor of the room even though they looked old, most of them. The chanting of the crowd became apparent as the clamps were placed over Sarah's wrists. "Cat's Cradle! Cat's Cradle!" They chanted. That's when the door opened and a very familiar man was pushed in, sprawling down on the floor face-first. "Ow..."

Sarah looked down at Con, a hint of surprise in her eyes. Terror was coursing through her... she didn't think she could get herself out of this. Despite that, she kept a calm demeanor. "About time you showed up..." she said, looking down at him and trying not to imagine what this "Cat's Cradle" might be.

Con struggled to his feet, a very confused look on his face when he saw Sarah. "What are you doing here? You.. I thought I told you not to talk to anyone!" he barked. "Con?" The woman asked. "About time you showed..." "Jackie?" Con asked, looking at her. "WHERE have you been? I've been looking for you for at least an hour!" "Entertaining little spies that you seem to know!" She replied angrily.

"How many times must I tell you I'm not a spy?" Sarah spat, looking angrily at her from the chair that constrained her.

"Yeah! She's not a spy, Jackie! Are you insane?!" Con spat, glaring at her. He listened to the chants to the crowd. "How many times to I have to tell you people? I'm through with this! I'm not going to do these sick little torture bits you keep referring to!" "But.. but Con..." The woman seemed to soften slightly. "It's... what you were meant to do..." "NO! It's NOT! I refuse to believe it!" Con shouted at her while fiddling with Sarah's locks. "Now help me! She's not a spy! She's my friend, Jackie!" "... But... I was so sure..." Jackie said, backing away. "Do it, Jackie!" Con hissed, standing up. "Or so help me... I'll do the cat's cradle on YOU.' At this, the woman's face turned quite pale. "Con... I'm your friend, too.. of course I'll help you..." She quickly leaned forward, undoing Sarah's clasps and giving her back her weapons. "I'm... I'm sorry. I should have known better." "Yes, you should have." Con spat towards her, looking back at Sarah with worry in his eyes. "Are you alright? She didn't hurt you, did she?"

Sarah looked at him for a moment, not saying anything. She laughed quietly. "I was just led to a giant wheel by gunpoint, then strapped to said wheel, and spun while a dagger flew at me, and you ask if I'm all right?" She stood from the chair and replaced her dagger belt. "How about, in the future, when you bring someone to a place full of sadistic freaks, you give them a bit of warning?"

"But.. it's not like that..." Con said, looking down slightly. "I should never have brought you here... I'm sorry, Sarah... I just thought... maybe..." He stopped and looked at Jackie. "How long have you been doing this?" "... Ever... since you left." she said after a moment. "Con... you have to hurry... they'll expect something from you..." "But... where will I go?" Con asked. "The abandoned asylum. That's the only safe place for now. I'll take you there." She took Con's shoulder gently. He brushed it away, glaring daggers at her. "I can find it myself. I'm not stupid." "... Con... Please... let me come with you? I can tell her how truly sorry I am... and explain." Jackie asked, her eyes truly showing remorse. "... Let Sarah decide." Con stated. "But Sarah... be quick."

Sarah looked at her, glaring. "Like *I* was given a chance to explain, hmm?" she asked quietly. She looked at Con briefly. "What the hell. Come if you want. But don't think I've forgiven you. Or that I intend to."

"Let's go, then. And quick." Con remarked coldly, mostly directed to Jackie. He burst out of the door, glancing to the left and right. "Which way?" "Right!" Jackie exclaimed. Without a word, Con sprinted in the direction she said, opening the door there and falling into a chute. He slid down, not remembering this here at all. Jackie followed after Sarah, Con ending up dumped just outside the building on the ground. "... Work on the landing..." He moaned as the women fell upon him. "Now let's go, before they notice we're gone..."

Sarah stood, shaking her head slightly to clear it. "After you..." she muttered in response to Con's comment. She glanced up the chute, wondering if people out of that sadistic crowd would soon be shooting down it, looking for them...

Con shot out of the alley with a somewhat shadowy grace, glancing back and forth. "It's left!" Jackie exclaimed. "Are you sure?" Con replied. "Something tells me it's right." "I think it's left!" "Let me get this straight. You think it's left?" "Yes!" "Left?" He asked again. "Yes!" She exclaimed. "Right it is!" Con didn't sprint, but jogged towards the edge of town.

If it weren't for the situation they were in, Sarah might've laughed. Without a moment's hesistation, she followed Con to the right. If it were a choice between trusting him and that nutjob woman, she'd trust him.

Jackie took one last look at the left, and then followed him. To her surprise, he was right. They exited town and came upon the empty building within moments. Jackie was panting, though Con seemed to be fine. She began to enter, but looked back at Con. He acted as if she weren't there, entering and laying down upon one of the reception room old couches. "Looks like a good place as any." He said as he seemed to relax slightly, folding his hands behind his head and visibly relaxing his muscles.

Sarah walked in behind him. She was much slower than he to let her guard down, looking around the empty building with her hands close at her dagger hilts. After several moments she leaned against a wall and folded her arms in front of her, facing the doorway.

Jackie, though she felt incredibly awkward doing so, entered as well, knowing she was hated by both of them still. "I..." She looked at Sarah. "I'll tell you anything you want to know..." Con opened one eye and gave Jackie a cold, hard look.

Sarah looked at her. "I've got no interest in hearing anything from *you*," she said coldly. "You're free to say whatever you like, though. Can't very well stop you talking."

"I really am sorry..." Jackie said softly, lowering her eyes to the floor. "I... I just thought... I couldn't help it. I wanted... to protect..." "I don't need your protection, Jackie. I never did and I never will." Con stated, eyes closed now. "Why don't you shut that mouth of yours and let us get some rest? No doubt Sarah is probably dead tired after the hell you put her through." Jackie's eyes watered slightly with tears, but she blinked them back, lowered her back against the wall and sinking to the floor, hugging her knees. "I'm..." "Sorry, we know." Con interrupted. "Now weren't you going to shut your mouth so we can get some sleep?" "...sorry." she whispered the last word, receiving a cold glare from Con before she buried her face in her knees, obviously done speaking for now.

Sarah looked down at her. She might've held some pity for the woman... if she hadn't just nearly been tortured in some sick game. Tired though she was, she didn't move from her place against the wall. After all that had just happened, she wasn't quite ready to let her guard down around this woman.

Con was the first asleep, acting as if he hadn't slept in weeks. He snored softly, one arm hanging off the edge of the couch with a foot to follow and the other muddled in his hair, the right leg bent slightly. He murmured some nonsense in his sleep, turning slightly, and swallowing. Jackie wasn't asleep, not by far. She was too miserable to fall asleep as easily as Con did.

It was not from misery, but suspicion, that Sarah stayed awake. She stayed against the wall, her legs beginning to protest from the strain and her feet starting to go numb, but with no intention of moving until she was absolutely certain Jackie was asleep.

Jackie stared at Con's sleeping form, just staring. Her jet black hair hung in thin strings about her pale face. She tucked a few strands back, bright blue eyes still glittering with tears. She was definitely not in her thirties, or she would probably have looked stronger in her attitude and appearance. She was younger than that, twenty-six to be precise. She then turned her gaze for just a moment to Sarah. She opened her mouth to speak, but then, after a few seconds passed, closed it without a word.

Sarah looked at her, saying nothing, making no sign that she'd even seen that the other woman was about to speak. She surprised a tired sigh. Couldn't the woman just fall asleep and agonize over things *tomorrow*?

Jackie's eyes were watering from tiredness as well. She began to think about several things. Where had Con been for so long? Why hadn't he contacted her before? Why did he need to now? Who was this girl? Was she... the one he spoke of so often? Would they look for him and her now? Had he... still kept that? Could he get rid of it? How could she... She lay her head in her knees, sighing softly and finally drifting off into a deep, troubled sleep.

Sarah watched the other woman fall asleep, relieved. She waited a bit longer, just to be sure, and then stalked over to a couch and collapsed on top of it. She leaned her head against one of it's arms and let out a long sigh. What a day...

Fine, wielder, I will post an IMRP.
phez is Zorolo, Dark Latio is me. Between Latio and Zorlo

phez69420 (10:07:44 PM): The Aura Master stood silently in the dark room, waiting for something to happen. Damn the Dome! All a little inquisition had done was get him into a vastly dark room. The darkness would fade soon, and wherever he had wound up
phez69420 (10:08:28 PM): would appear. Hell, it even did as he opened his eyes. He was in a cave... and could tell from the dimly lit, although there was some light, cracks in the walls that let light in. Well... that and gaping exit behind him. He turned
phez69420 (10:09:00 PM): around and headed away from the caverns depths. He moved towards a nearby forest. The fencer had never much liked caves.
Dark Latio (10:25:25 PM): "Dieing, delicate green-orange leaves crumpled and broke into equally delicate (ZOROLO! STFU) fragments as Latio strolled through the--
Dark Latio (10:30:27 PM): --late-summer forest.
Dark Latio (10:32:58 PM): He had heard a thumping in the distance earlier in his walk, as well as the whirring of a mechanical transport, which was, to his knowledge, a 'helicopter.'
Dark Latio (10:33:43 PM): A clearing opened up in front of him,
Dark Latio (10:37:19 PM): Patches of browning, yet still green grass were scattered among the equally random leaf piles. A cave's mouth would lure any curious adventurer in, with whatever else was in there, be it treasure or otherwise.
phez69420 (10:39:06 PM): The fencer closed his eyes. Two strong aura nearby. One was Mercutio, one of the fencer's best, if not the best, friends. The other was familiar as well. Latio Scaptur, the foxfolk. The last time the Aura Master had met him was
phez69420 (10:39:52 PM): back when the green haired man had first become the Aura Master. Whatever the fox warrior was doing here was little of Zorlo's business, but Mercutio being here... now that never ment good things. The whole forest had some wicked
phez69420 (10:40:33 PM): taint that seemed to resonate off of it. The fencer sighed as he slowly walked into the forest. He hoped to avoid meeting Latio, since the two weren't exactly friends. Even so, Mercutio would tell Zorlo what he needed to know.
Dark Latio (11:01:53 PM): "Drawn in by the atmosphere of the large cave, Latio cautiously (**** i spelt that wrong) approached.
Dark Latio (11:02:00 PM): He knew the water-slick, irregularly smooth walls would interfere with his echolocation, but the foxfolk figured he could dispatch any monster in the cave with relative ease.
Dark Latio (11:03:56 PM): The air smelt of mold and fungi, although there was a strangely familiar smell hinted at in the air...
Dark Latio (11:08:09 PM): --thump!-- A very stiff, yet padded body staggered backward from the unseen accidental assault in the pitch darkness.
phez69420 (11:08:28 PM): Zorlo was merely a green blur as he ran through the forest, in search of Mercutio, who didn't seem to be moving. Odd. Mercutio couldn't help but move about normally. What the hell was going on here? Was it something this place was
phez69420 (11:09:22 PM): Suddenly... THUMP! He hit something and spiraled out of control, sliding into a tree and knocking the giant oak over, roots and all. He shooks his head and looked. Latio had gotten here rather fast. The fencer smiled as he stood up
phez69420 (11:09:40 PM): and moved towards the foxfolk, offering him a hand. "Hello, Latio, it is nice to see you again."
Dark Latio (11:23:54 PM): "i remember you. You're the one who wanted info on (**** what was his name then...) Gorin/Dante."
Dark Latio (11:24:19 PM): The gray fox rubbed the length of his left arm where the fencer had struck a nerve, leaving it barely mobile. "
Dark Latio (11:24:22 PM): My blob controls it now..." There was a feel about this warrior, that he'd ascended into a higher class of fighting capability.
phez69420 (11:26:20 PM): "Yes... I'm sorry about that," the fencer stated as he bowed. "Please forgive what I did in the days of my reckless and angered youth," the Aura Master spoke compassionately. He truly hated himself for what he had done. The fencer
phez69420 (11:27:15 PM): had grown as a person since then. "I'm sorry I attacked you so foolishly back then. I know you probably won't forgive me... but... I at least must ask, to put my soul to rest," he stated as the fencer looked at the ground. "I feel
phez69420 (11:28:07 PM): that since the one that ordered me to find Dante has fallen thanks to myself, Dante and another, that I should make amends for my actions under his corrupt words. How can I make it up to you?" the green haired man asked.
Dark Latio (11:37:25 PM): The two honourable fighters, almost rivals, quickly found a massive clearing somewhere in the forest. They took their starting positions and turned their backs to each other. On three, they'd turn and begin the fight.
phez69420 (11:39:19 PM): One. The fencer took a step, and with it, the world went deafening silent around him. Two. A second step, and his eyes closed, revealing the world of Auras around him. Latio's power the closest, but Zorlo could still feel Merc's in
phez69420 (11:40:14 PM): the distance. He simply tried his best to ignore the Tainted Element that the warrior released. Three. The fencer's third step ended with his turning. All of his senses dulled completely, his mind intently focused on tracing Latio.
Dark Latio (11:46:37 PM): The foxfolk could almost feel his mind connect with his green opponent's as they counted off seconds in their heads. Using nothing but his hearing, he heard several forest critters chirping and chattering.
Dark Latio (11:49:45 PM): One. A boot grinded on the sun-baked earth and grass, and various metal chimes could be heard.
Dark Latio (11:50:39 PM): Two. The sounds of the local wildlife were thrown from Latio's mind.
Dark Latio (11:53:52 PM): Three. Latio swiveled on his heel, facing his opponent as his soft, grey fur was turned to silver-blue grass blades of death protruding from his skin.
phez69420 (11:55:04 PM): The fencer counted silently in his head and moved his body slightly to the side, narrowly evading the claws that came at him. Less then a second. Latio had gotten faster. The fencer could read each of his moves with some deal of
phez69420 (11:55:42 PM): ease, mostly due to his abudance in elemental energy. Latio was simply brimming with the power of magic, but the elements he had wouldn't make a difference here. Zorlo knew this.
Dark Latio (12:05:52 AM): Latio backpedaled and backfliped to a reasonable distance in a split-second after Zorolo's dodge, and mustered almost all of his tempest element, and shot the electricity and
Dark Latio (12:06:01 AM): kinetic wind energy through his body, a very risky maneuver, but nothing that he hadn't risked before.
Dark Latio (12:06:02 AM): The lightning and wind energy surged through his body, though even with the battle going on, he still needed to control the current around his heart.
Dark Latio (12:08:01 AM): He charged at his adversary at an alarming speed, even for the fastest of fighters, and hurled a blob of biometal at the fencer, attempting to electrify him.
phez69420 (12:09:36 AM): A pulse wave was released as the fencer seemed to simply vanish from where he had stood seconds before, appearing on the other side of the clearing, still calmly smiling. "You're much faster. This should be fun." With those words,
phez69420 (12:10:30 AM): a second pulsation left the ground and the aimed his fast at the foxfolk's back, intent on driving throwing the fox through the nearest tree. Not the most fun thing to do, but it work work fine in this case.
Dark Latio (12:25:31 AM): "The foxfolk leaped into a cartwheel, narrowly dodging the vibrations in the air, then pushed off the ground with his hands to prop himself upon a tree. The foxfolk pinpointed the
Dark Latio (12:26:57 AM): fencer's position, and prepared to launch an attack. The biometal formed over his hand into a spike, extending his reach by a foot, at least.
Dark Latio (12:31:13 AM): He pushed off a pulse-weakened tree, splintering it, and it drew Zorolo's attention.
Dark Latio (12:31:15 AM): The fox positioned himself behind the fencer, narrowing and lengthening the spike to a pinpoint, to strike at the strap to which the sword was attached.
phez69420 (9:17:15 PM): The fencer felt it. Every movement that Latio made, he could feel. He was behind the Aura Master now, attacking at the fence'rs waistline, trying to remove his sword from the fencer's belt. Nice try, but a failed effort. The green
phez69420 (9:18:10 PM): haired fencer's body turned quickly and grabbed the fox's wrist, channeling his aura into his hand to displace any electrical or air energy away from the fencer. They were worthless against him. In a blur of movement, the fencer's
phez69420 (9:18:27 PM): knee blitzed towards the elemental warrior's chest. This would be over shortly.
Dark Latio (9:21:34 PM): The foxfolk didn't worry too much about the elemental loss he was at, though the position he was in, as well
Dark Latio (9:21:39 PM): as the knee lunging toward his chest, was definately worth looking in to.
Dark Latio (9:24:34 PM): He telepathically channeled his living metal to where the knee would impact, then formed it to a broad point.
Dark Latio (9:24:36 PM): It would still hurt the fox, but it would his quick opponent more.
phez69420 (9:26:12 PM): The fencer felt his something enter his knee as his knee impacted his foe, and his hand instantly released his foe's wrist. He pulled his knee back, and could feel the blood dripping down it. If he had seen what Latio did he could
phez69420 (9:26:56 PM): better prepare for it in the future, but he hadn't seen what had happened. so he had little idea. With a blur of movement, the Aura Master's fist burst towards the fox's chest. An almsot reflex to the sudden burst of pain.
Dark Latio (9:33:13 PM): Latio reflexively caught the gloved fist in a clasp of metal, the steel-clad, blade-like fur attempting to puncture the glove, but to no avail, as a wave of energy pushed his hand back.
Dark Latio (9:35:46 PM): He drew the silver metal from his left arm, and it fell limp. The biometal formed to the shape of Zorlo's own rapier, infused with a similar, yet different, set of elemental attributes.
Dark Latio (9:35:53 PM): "Draw."
phez69420 (9:38:14 PM): The fencer smiled and opened his eyes, the green orbs starting at his young foe. The green haired fencer drew his blade and readied himself. "Have you ever used a rapier, Goodman Latio?" the Aura Master asked, getting ready to end
phez69420 (9:38:23 PM): this battle.
Dark Latio (9:44:41 PM): "Yes" the foxfolk replied. The biometal covertly bound itself to the hand of the warrior, eliminating the chances of getting disarmed. "It was my second weapon I ever used, and my personal sword of choice."
phez69420 (9:47:15 PM): The green haired man smiled. Those words made him a tad happier. He wasn't the only fencer here. These two would be a good fencing match, and the fencer would finally see what it was like to clash rapiers with someone. It'd been
phez69420 (9:47:44 PM): nearly three years since the last time he had. It was time to begin. "You first, my good sir," the Aura Master said calmly.
Dark Latio (9:50:19 PM):
"Alright." Latio's blade swished through the air, aiming presumably for Zorlo's right shoulder.
phez69420 (9:51:29 PM): The fencer watched the blade move and quickly blocked with his sword turned horizontally. This would be a bit tricky, but he could fight like this. He'd done it before.
Dark Latio (9:52:59 PM): Mere millimeters before the swords clashed the foxfolk spun on his heel and aimed a mostly-horizontal strike for the fencer's left leg.
phez69420 (9:54:43 PM): The fencer quickly spun his hand so his sword moved to deflect Latio's sword, taking a step back. This would be very interesting, and the fox's sword was very interesting. Such an amazing power. The AUra Master woundered where the
phez69420 (9:54:49 PM): warrior had got such a power.
Dark Latio (10:07:51 PM): Not risking the loss of any momentum, the foxfolk followed through with the sweep, scraping the side of his blade up the side of his opponent's, creating a diagonal uppercut toward the green-haired fighter's left hand.
phez69420 (10:12:07 PM): The fencer tightened his grip, his gauntlet on his left hand holding his prized sword tightly as the blade of his foe struck it, causing the green haired man's hand to shake slightly. The fencer hopped backwards and thrusted his
phez69420 (10:12:10 PM): sword slightly.
Dark Latio (10:22:34 PM): Latio countered the quick jab with a left-to-right sweep of his sword, and pushed the point of Zorlo's blade to the ground, burying about an inch up the tip, and vertically swept at the fencer's left elbow joint.
phez69420 (10:23:53 PM): The fencer released his sword for a second and grabbed the rapier in an assassin's grip and pulled the sword back slightly, arching his back to graze the sword off of his own blade. Close call. Needless to say, the fencer stumbled
phez69420 (10:24:36 PM): back, nearly falling over. He collected himself and spun his sword to a normal blade hold and slashed down at the foxfolk quickly, intent on striking the fox.
Dark Latio (10:33:26 PM):
Latio raised his blade, bracing for the strong hit. He planned to catch the green swordsman's edge in the 'V' made of the edge and hilt of the blade. Success!
Dark Latio (10:35:09 PM):
He pushed the fencer back with enough force to push him over, and strongly swept down as he stumbled.
phez69420 (10:35:59 PM): The Fencer caught himself slightly with one foot nand launched himself into the air. He swung his sword down as he looked down at the fox, intent on showing him the Aura Master's power.
Dark Latio (10:40:27 PM): Instead of blocking the strike, the grey fox jumped backwards, and a green blur fell from the sky and landed a few feet in front of him.
Dark Latio (10:42:16 PM): Latio took advantage of the recovery time a strong technique like that required, and prepared a strike which would rest on the neck.
phez69420 (10:43:48 PM): Another burst of air erupted as the fencer left another after image as he blurred backwards to avoid Latio's strike. He was breathing slightly heavier, but not at all really tired. This was fun. The green haired man lvoed this
phez69420 (10:44:20 PM): battle so far, and he'd give his foe a taste of his power. The fencer left another after image as he burst towards his foe, aiming a powerful horizontal slash for him.
Dark Latio (10:49:12 PM): Latio heard a --whooshing-- sound, and quickly ducked right under the blade, mutating his rapier to the form of a short, narrow spike which came to a point just at Zorlo's neck.
phez69420 (10:50:27 PM): The fencer looked at the spike. It had been a good move, and the fencer was going to have a hard time moving. "Good move," he said as he rested his sword against Latio's neck. "But now we're trapped," he stated. "Draw?" he asked.
Dark Latio (10:53:29 PM): "'Fraid not." A second spike proturded from his shoulder and struck Zorlo's wrist.
phez69420 (10:58:13 PM): The clang from his gauntlet taking the blow put them again in check mate. "Stale mate. Neither of us can move, so let's calll it a draw," the fencer said with a smile.
Dark Latio (10:59:00 PM): The foxfolk was irritated at the non-win, and grumbled at it. "Fine."
Dark Latio (10:59:48 PM): He withdrew the spike and drew the biometal to the muscles in his left arm, allowing it free movement.
phez69420 (11:00:49 PM): The fencer extended his hand to Latio and smiled. "Good fight. I hope to face you one day, not to long from now," the Aura Master stated with a kind smile. A good days battle was over for now.
Dark Latio (11:01:35 PM): "Alright. But next time, it won't end in a draw."
phez69420 (11:03:05 PM): "That's fine, so long as it doesnt' end in a death," the fencer said with his normal smile, not really doing much else. Another day, another battle.
Dark Latio (11:03:50 PM): The two rivals turned and went their separate ways, eager for the next fight.
Dark Latio (11:04:08 PM): [/IMRP]

Okay, this is unfinished, but I like how it's played out so far. So I decided to post it. We had to use this format 'cause Her Ladyship is constrained to RPing her cell phone. Anyway, Blitz and Aurora! Go!


Blitz: *Reclines in the shade of a large oak near a green pasture. A ranch was visible in the distance, but for now, Blitz preferred solitude.*

A: *wanders across the pasture, minding little but the sunshine above, her robes were nowhere to be seen, put neatly into a pack she wore over one shoulder. instead she wore soft, brown leather boots, snug well-worn bluejeans, and a simple white blouse rolled twice to rest just below her elbows. though her curly hair was still piled atop her head and the dragon form still glistened about her right wrist*

Blitz: *Opens one eye just in time to see Aurora passing by some distance away. At first he stares in surprise to come across the Ominae by chance. Grinning, he rises to his feet and waves to catch her attention.* Hey!

A: *looks over squinting a little, then a smile lights her face* Blitz!

Blitz: *Grins a little wider and rushes forward at top-speed to greet her, skidding to a halt just in time to avoid a collision. Instantly, he throws his arms around Aurora and hugs her tightly, then steps back.* It's been so long. Where have you been? Last we met, I was dead!

A: *laughs returning his hug* an easier question is where have i not been. but, what about you? its quite a feat to return from the dead.

Blitz: Well... *Smiles awkwardly, recalling recent past events.* Turns out I wasn't really dead at all. Bit of a long story.

A: *chuckles* took you long enough to figure it out tho. *gives him a wink*

Blitz *Facefaults* Y-you knew? *Bites the inside of his cheek, smile fading.* Oh... *Lets out a small sigh, then forces another smile.* Well, other than knowing everything, what have you been up to?

A: *laughs* even i can't communicate with the the truly dead. but i doubt you would have believed me. *looks around* well, wandering mostly.

Blitz: Wandering? *Focuses on the moment, pushing thoughts of the past aside.* Met any other old friends besides me?

A: Tokumaru-kun and one or two others

Blitz: Oh? I haven't seen him in awhile. Not since...well, not since I came back.

A: *lets his mood pass by, sensing he'd rather not dwell on it* what about your family? hows your wife?

Blitz: *Sighs, almost amused by the irony but not quite. He looks through Aurora for a moment before answering.* They're dead.

A: *looks a little crestfallen* i'm sorry Blitz... i feel like such a heel...

Blitz: No, no... *Looks at her, pushing the sadness from his eyes, and smiles encouragingly.* You didn't know. *Thinks silently for a moment, then offers his hand.* Let's walk for awhile.

A: *gives him a small, if sardonic smile* see... even i don't know everything...

A: *takes it, and the comfort of a familiar face, letting the redhead lead the way* what about Viscen? *looks doubtful*

Blitz: *His eyes stop focusing for a moment as he restrains the smile on his face.* He went out like he always imagined. Defending his men. *Squeezes his old teacher's hand gently as they stroll through the pasture together.*

A: *smiles strangely* heh... you know something? i really wished i could've seen him again...

Blitz: You do? *Looks sidelong at her.* Why is that? *Blinks, scowling a bit.* He didn't try anything with you, did he?

A: *chuckles* i think i could've gotten a soft spot for that old warhorse...

A: *laughs* not at all... well, other than trying to blow my brains out.

Blitz: Warhorse, huh? *Chuckles* Yep, that's Viscen... He and I never did see eye-to-eye on romance. Maybe he was that way because he didn't lose his whole family till later in life. *His eyes lose focus again for a moment, and he faces ahead.* You know, I think I envy the others... They lost everything, and now they're at peace. They fulfilled their purpose.

A: sometimes, you make connections with people... even on opposite sides of a battlefield. and you wonder what would happen if you ever met again. *loops her arm in his, squeezing his arm a little*

Blitz: *Looks at her softly and returns the squeeze.* Yeah... That's how we all met, isn't it? You, me, Tokumaru, Terrin...

A: i never met terrin... tho i heard of him *looks at him* do you wish for death?

Blitz: *Looks back, his gaze turning stern.* ...No. As long as I'm alive, I still have a chance. At the very least, maybe there's someway to bring Amy back.

A: *looks out at the sky* i did once upon a time...

Blitz: *Follows her gaze.* When I was still a..."spirit", I wanted to disappear. I had to watch Amy cry her eyes out every night. But then I met a real ghost, and she gave Amy my message. I guess hope comes when you least expect it... The reason my life is so screwed up was because of the Celestials, and they're gone now.

Blitz: Maybe now I can live my own life. If I can bring her back, this time we'll be together forever...

A: *smiles at him gently* such a romantic...

Blitz: *Blushes and flashes a lopsided grin.* Well...I can't help it. I love her. There's no one else for me.

A: *looks out across the landscape the same small smile on her face* reminds me of someone else...

Blitz: *Blinks, watching her curiously.* Who?

A: *smirks* his name is Synne. for some reason he thinks the sun rises and sets on me... or maybe he just thinks i'm the sun... *laughs*

Blitz: Well, you do have shiny hair.

A: *chuckles* i wish i still had what you two do... i'm too old to believe in happy endings and love conquers all.

Blitz: See, that's a paradox. Love only conquers if you believe in it. *Smiles a bit.* Or maybe it's not love that does the conquering. If you love someone, you'll fight for them. If you fight with all your heart, nothing can stop you.

A: *looks tired* sometimes looking in eyes like yours and his... i can believe that again, just for a moment.

Blitz: *His smile turns sardonic.* That's funny, seeing as I lost everything. *After a moment, he adds* Again.

A: *looks at him and her eyes seem to hold the weight of her millenia* but, nonetheless you still do.

Blitz: If there's any chance at all, I want to set things right... *His own eyes reflect the misfortunes he's seen, however much they pale in comparison to the Ominae's.* It's either that or die, and I'm not ready to give up.

A: *looks ahead, watching the sun sinking lower in the sky*

Blitz: I love sunsets. The trees aren't even covering the horizon. *Smiles a bit, turning to her for a moment.* Why don't we find someplace to sit and watch?

A: *doesn't look away from the horizon* sure.

Blitz: *Looks side to side for someplace to settle, then picks out the fence of a nearby ranch. The occasional "moo" aside, it seemed comfy enough. He points it out to Aurora.* How about there?

A: thats fine...

Blitz: *Watches her thoughtfully as he guides her to the fence and sits down against a post.* Are you alright?

A: *perches on a post* yes... just tired i suppose.

A: so what are you going to do now?

Blitz: Look for some way to bring her back... That's all I can do. *Looks up at her, ignoring the fact that, for once, she is much taller than him.* What about you?

A: go wherever i'm sent next.

Blitz: Sent? *Arches an eyebrow.* You have an employer?

A: the universe, like everybody else...

Blitz: *His eyes soften sympathetically.* You can write your own destiny, you know. Your gift can help. And I'm in no hurry, so maybe I can help, too.

A: *shakes her head* not as though i have anything else to do.

Between me and Zorolo.

~~~

[22:24] Zorlo: I... need to do something. *Flicks a building and accidently blows it to pieces*
[22:24] Zorlo: Much better. That alleviates boredom so well
[22:24] Taen: showoff
[22:26] Zorlo: What?
[22:28] Taen: you want power?
[22:28] Taen: *pulls out blades and summons fire to the tips of the swords. twirls them around and jumps up, gathering the flames around him. Lands on the ground as a vortex of flames circle around him, reaching to the sky and spreading around, blowing apart the cement and ripping through buildings*
[22:28] Zorlo: Not really. I need power to defend those I care about.
[22:28] Zorlo: *Doesn't flinch as the flames don't touch him at all*
[22:28] Zorlo: Not really. I need power to defend those I care about.
[22:28] Zorlo: *Doesn't flinch as the flames don't touch him at all*
[22:29] Taen: *rolls eyes* how honorable.
[22:29] Taen: what about destroying something that has hurt you?
[22:30] Taen: or maybe to just defend yourself.
[22:30] Zorlo: I try to avoid destroying anything, and it’s very hard to harm me, as you just witnessed.
[22:30] Taen: there is no reason for me to harm you.
[22:30] Taen: but what if
[22:31] Taen: you grew up believing in something so blindly, and then got older and realized it was all a lie
[22:31] Zorlo: That's life.
[22:31] Taen: not to me
[22:31] Zorlo: All people have that feeling in life.
[22:32] Taen: they must pay. For every lie they have ever told. For every person who they have corrupted into their false religion
[22:32] Zorlo: That's life. You can't fight life. Just like you can't change fate, you can't change the way people are.
[22:33] Taen: those people... they will do anything to make everyone else see their way
[22:33] Taen: they kill and destroy anything that conflicts with their god
[22:34] Zorlo: That's religion, young one. You must understand that. Hypocrisy is life, and all people are hypocrites in one way or another.
[22:34] Taen: i hate religion
[22:34] Taen: and their religion will be the downfall of many people
[22:35] Taen: how many more must suffer under their god
[22:35] Zorlo: *shrugs* There is nothing good, nor evil about it. It is just like man in that it serves its own purpose.
[22:35] Taen: so, you will let them commit such... evil atrocities
[22:36] Taen: you would let them rule over people using fear
[22:36] Taen: i do remember a saying
[22:36] Taen: something about the person who lets a man kill another man, is no different from the killer
[22:36] Zorlo: No matter what they do, they give people a crutch in which to stand. Would you simply take that crutch and knock those people to the ground like they are dirt?
[22:37] Taen: if they are forcing others to go under that crutch, then maybe
[22:39] Zorlo: It's all a matter of perception. Perception shouldn't be a reason to kill people.
[22:39] Taen: they are the ones doing the killing
[22:39] Taen: they should be stopped
[22:39] Taen: what would you suggest?
[22:39] Zorlo: And you justify your actions because they're killing people by killing those who are killing? Does that make any sense at all?
[22:40] Taen: ..
[22:40] Taen: then what else can we do about them
[22:41] Zorlo: Simply expose their evil and let the people search for the truth and try to gain their freedom. People can tell a tyrant from one who is in their best interest, young Taen.
[22:41] Taen: young, taen?
[22:41] Zorlo: Yep.
[22:41] Taen: im at least 21
[22:41] Taen: that’s like
[22:41] Taen: around the same age as you
[22:42] Zorlo: And? As I've told people before, what matter is age in a world where someone can be truly ageless?
[22:42] Taen: yeah, i know
[22:42] Taen: it just sounds weird coming from someone around the same age
[22:42] Taen: then again, im not as knowledgeable as you
[22:43] Zorlo: Aye, it is a bit strange for you, but others I have told have said the same, but it matters not. Wisdom is the only truth in the world, age is merely an illusion.
[22:43] Taen: yeah
[22:43] Taen: i guess
[22:43] Zorlo: Good, now that you understand these truths, go forth and make the world a better place.
[22:44] Taen: okay then
[22:44] Taen: thank you
[22:44] Taen: so
[22:45] Taen: how do you expose someone's evil
[22:45] Taen: then that persons followers worship him so blindly
[22:45] Zorlo: By telling people the truth.
[22:45] Taen: and if they don't listen?
[22:46] Zorlo: Well, then they are truly foolish, but you know, human nature, and all that.
[22:47] Taen: so, i'm supposed to let them be foolish and keep on lying and killing
[22:48] Zorlo: eventually, people grow wise and remove those who are evil. Sadly, they need time.
[22:49] Taen: you put too much faith in humanity
[22:49] Zorlo: Well, you have too little.
[22:49] Taen: *laughs*
[22:50] Taen: then i guess we agree to disagree
[22:50] Taen: although
[22:50] Zorlo: Yep
[22:50] Taen: i don't hate all of humanity
[22:50] Taen: i just dislike ignorance and bigotry
[22:53] Zorlo: True, true.

An old IMRP/battle between Taen and Rain. Apologies for the formatting, my mouse is ****ng up and that makes it a pain to select stuff.

WolfenNights (11:18:51 PM): Taen: *walks into the room, his eyes crawling up and down the darkened walls. he sees a lone figure at the end of the hallway, and grabs his swords*
WolfenNights (11:18:57 PM): Taen: who is there?
Etherwinter Rain (11:19:27 PM): R: Hmm? O.o *looks at him*
WolfenNights (11:19:33 PM): ((im doing the part of cascade where they are in the castle and taen fights rain x3))
Etherwinter Rain (11:19:52 PM): (( XD Ooh, neat. Read your mind, then )
WolfenNights (11:21:45 PM): T: *releases grip on his blades, which are still in his sheath*
WolfenNights (11:21:49 PM): T: oh. it's you.
WolfenNights (11:22:07 PM): T: what are you doing here? shouldnj't you have fleed the castle like everyone else?
WolfenNights (11:22:41 PM): ((the chandelier fell whenever taen and kariette were dancing, and kari has just left to go to the king while taen fights rain))
Etherwinter Rain (11:23:00 PM): R: I don't think a bodyguard should flee at times like this ^^'' And shouldn't I be asking you the same question?
WolfenNights (11:23:26 PM): T: body guard? oh. right. i forgot.
WolfenNights (11:23:33 PM): T: *shifts eyes*
WolfenNights (11:23:39 PM): T: umm... I'm lost?
Etherwinter Rain (11:24:02 PM): R: @_@ The dancing area was near the entrance?
WolfenNights (11:24:17 PM): T: damn. you caught me.
Etherwinter Rain (11:24:23 PM): R: I did?
Etherwinter Rain (11:24:31 PM): R: *playing dumb*
WolfenNights (11:24:34 PM): T: *draws blades* yep.
Etherwinter Rain (11:24:48 PM): R: What're those for? ^^'
WolfenNights (11:24:49 PM): T: I'm guessing you're not gonna just let me go, are you?
Etherwinter Rain (11:24:58 PM): R: Go where? @_@
WolfenNights (11:25:25 PM): T: the throne room. or wherever that king went.
WolfenNights (11:25:41 PM): T: altho, the throne room would be a foolish place to be at a time like this.
WolfenNights (11:25:54 PM): T: seeing as the chandelier falling *couldn't* have been an accident
WolfenNights (11:26:07 PM): T: but even if it was, better safe than sorry, right?
Etherwinter Rain (11:26:18 PM): R: You're right. ^^ There must be someone in the castle who's responsible
WolfenNights (11:26:23 PM): T: altho, I'm surprised you didn't go with him. some bodyguard, huh?
Etherwinter Rain (11:26:55 PM): R: *shrugs* I got lost
WolfenNights (11:28:11 PM): T: yeah. those secret passageways to the king's hiding place can be tricky to follow
Etherwinter Rain (11:28:33 PM): R: I know ^^ I see you know about them, Assassin.
WolfenNights (11:28:47 PM): T: *plays innocent* what? me?
WolfenNights (11:28:58 PM): T: *chuckles softly* of course.
Etherwinter Rain (11:28:59 PM): R: You're the one with the swords out
WolfenNights (11:29:12 PM): T: and you? you are unarmed
WolfenNights (11:29:28 PM): T: plus there is one other... person with me.
Etherwinter Rain (11:30:32 PM): R: The girl ^^ I know. And unarmed? Probably, won't you just have to find out if I've got anything?
WolfenNights (11:30:42 PM): T: bingo.
WolfenNights (11:30:47 PM): T: and i guess i will.
WolfenNights (11:31:17 PM): T: *jumps forward, sliding a piece of rock beneath his feet, then throwing it at rain, broad edge facing the grim angel*
WolfenNights (11:32:30 PM): *broad
Etherwinter Rain (11:32:34 PM): R: *easily side steps it* ^^''
WolfenNights (11:32:58 PM): T: *lifts spear of rock to eject right where rain is about to place his foot*
Etherwinter Rain (11:34:13 PM): R: *standing on the ceiling* That was close @_@
WolfenNights (11:34:35 PM): T: *runs up the walls, and strikes at rain horizontally*
Etherwinter Rain (11:35:09 PM): R: *leaps off the ceiling, dodging his attack*
WolfenNights (11:36:08 PM): T: *jumps down from ceiling, coming down on rain, his sword positioned as if it were a hammer. flames encircle the blade, and burn a deep blood red*
Etherwinter Rain (11:36:56 PM): R: Time to stop the child's play :3 *summons his staff and blocks the blow. Swipes with a force and sends Taen backward*
WolfenNights (11:38:08 PM): ((brb))


WolfenNights (11:40:21 PM): Taen: *bends body backwards, and slides on the ground while using his hand to balance his body*
WolfenNights (11:40:41 PM): Taen: *pant* That you're weapon? 'Bout time you drew it, eh?
Etherwinter Rain (11:40:54 PM): R: It is, isn't it? ^^''
WolfenNights (11:41:21 PM): T: Even in the midst of a fioght, you're a cheery fellow, aren't you?
Etherwinter Rain (11:41:59 PM): R: *chuckles softly* I'm in a fight, it makes no sense to scream and bawl warcries. Wastes energy
WolfenNights (11:42:35 PM): T: *chuckles softly, then lifts his foot a litte, riding along a stream of air beneath his feet*
Etherwinter Rain (11:42:50 PM): R: That's pretty cool, there ^^
WolfenNights (11:43:10 PM): ((rain is a very relaxed fellow, isnt he?))
Etherwinter Rain (11:43:24 PM): (( XD You don't know? )
WolfenNights (11:44:43 PM): ((i did. xP I just didnt think it was to the extent of complimenting hiow foe who he is suposed to kill))))
WolfenNights (11:44:49 PM): ((*his foe))
WolfenNights (11:45:22 PM): T: splits blades in two, then uses his shadow magic to make three "after-images" appear next to him in an attempt to trick rain*
Etherwinter Rain (11:45:53 PM): R: *suddenly behind him* Those look cool, too. I can do *something* like that
WolfenNights (11:47:45 PM): T: *widens eyes, then turns around, using his momentum to slice with his right blade while his left is in a fixed position at his chest*
Etherwinter Rain (11:48:16 PM): R: *leaps backward, avoiding the swipe*
WolfenNights (11:48:51 PM): T : *spins again, this time aiming for Rain's legs*
Etherwinter Rain (11:50:11 PM): R: *Does a ryukansen: moving forward to spin around Taen's attack and body, unsheathing his longsword and swiping at the back of his head*
WolfenNights (11:55:00 PM): T: *winces as the back of his head is cut, then fires a bolt of lighting behind him, then putting his hand to the back of his head to heal the wound*
Etherwinter Rain (11:55:40 PM): R: *appears behind him again*
WolfenNights (11:56:40 PM): ((but Taen fired a bolt of lighting behind him. O.o))
Etherwinter Rain (11:57:03 PM): (( XD Wait, sorry ))
Etherwinter Rain (11:57:09 PM): R: *appears in front of him again*
WolfenNights (11:58:29 PM): T: *jumps forward, slashing horizonatally, then jumping again, slashing upwards, then does a spin attack, which spreads a feild of darkness and fire over 5 feet*
Etherwinter Rain (11:59:57 PM): R: *somewhere down the end of the hall, well away from the attack* Almost~!
Etherwinter Rain (12:00:01 AM): ( He likes toying x3 )
WolfenNights (12:00:18 AM): T: holy ****, you're fast. O.O
Etherwinter Rain (12:00:41 AM): R: ^^'' Thank you, sir
WolfenNights (12:08:00 AM): T: *fires a bolt of lightning at from his feet, rocketing towards rain, then uses his other leg to go either left or right, depending on where rain decides to move*
Etherwinter Rain (12:10:10 AM): R: Straight at me, hm? *sets himself and flies at him at a speed where he can hit nine targets at once* Kuzu ryusen!

WolfenNights (7:30:05 PM): Taen: *upon seeing Rain draw his sword and move at him, he panics. he summons a crystal orb around him, fueled by Sirasha's magic*
Etherwinter Rain (7:30:34 PM): ( Shield? )
WolfenNights (7:30:44 PM): ((barrier works as well))
Etherwinter Rain (7:31:05 PM): R: *hits the barrier and stops* Hmm...that didn't work too well.
WolfenNights (7:33:11 PM): T: *smirks* I thought you were gonna strike me with your "ryu-ken" whatever technique
Etherwinter Rain (7:33:35 PM): R: *shrugs* Nice thinking ^^
WolfenNights (7:36:35 PM): T: *the barrier still around him, he forces lightning to spark in his palms. he spins around, the lightning forming an orb of white hot energy. he pushes his arms out, and the lightning floods the room*
Etherwinter Rain (7:37:51 PM): R: @__@ *Fried* Owww..
WolfenNights (7:38:58 PM): T: *shoots eight thick bolts of lightning at each pillar, which explode and collapse*
Etherwinter Rain (7:39:34 PM): R: *coughing, he narrowly avoids the collapsing pillars*
WolfenNights (7:41:25 PM): T: *ceiling collapses. he pushes the air beneath his feert, flying towards the falling rock, and uses earth magic to make it fall around him*
Etherwinter Rain (7:41:50 PM): R: *can't avoid the ceiling collapsing on him* Arghh
WolfenNights (7:43:51 PM): T: *lands on the rubble, and releases shield as he kneels down to regain his strength*
WolfenNights (7:44:25 PM): ((magic takes a lot out of him. similar to as if he went running or lifted something heavy))
Etherwinter Rain (7:45:46 PM): R: Aha...*slowly pushes some rubble off him and comes to the surface, his forehead bleeding*
WolfenNights (7:50:15 PM): T: *winces and breathes hard* Had enough... Rainny-boy?
WolfenNights (7:50:37 PM): T: *starts walking towards where Rain is*
Etherwinter Rain (7:50:57 PM): R: ...*starts laughing*
Etherwinter Rain (7:56:25 PM): ( XDD )
Etherwinter Rain (7:56:45 PM): R: I...I'm sorry x3 But I thought that we haven't even started yet
WolfenNights (7:57:05 PM): T: *chuckles* Good...
WolfenNights (7:57:51 PM): T: *slices vertically towards Rain. a huge gurst of air and ice fly at him*
Etherwinter Rain (7:58:16 PM): R: *appears behind him and slams into him* Slow
WolfenNights (7:59:44 PM): T: *slams into the ground, and rols onto his side*
WolfenNights (8:00:49 PM): T: *grabs a chunk of rrock and infuses it with fire, causing it to malt slightly, but not so much that it has lost its form*
Etherwinter Rain (8:01:17 PM): R: That's a pretty light you got there
WolfenNights (8:01:26 PM): ((XD))
WolfenNights (8:02:39 PM): T: *grabs more rocks and infuses them with fire, then combines them all into one huge fiery boulder*
Etherwinter Rain (8:03:38 PM): R: Nightlight? Streetlight? What is it? @_@
WolfenNights (8:03:48 PM): ((XDXDXD))
WolfenNights (8:03:57 PM): T: Bullets. x3
WolfenNights (8:04:14 PM): T: *fires tiny peices of the rock all around them at the speed of a bullet*
Etherwinter Rain (8:04:29 PM): R: *simply dodges them*
WolfenNights (8:05:43 PM): T: *as rain is dodging, taen stomps the ground, causing the rocks to shater into sand*
WolfenNights (8:06:09 PM): T: *shifts barrier around him oonce again, and creates a whirlewin-sandstorm... thing*
Etherwinter Rain (8:06:24 PM): R: ...<_< That's it?
WolfenNights (8:07:48 PM): ((the sand was supposes to fly around and get in his eyes and make it hard for him to see. thats why taen made the sheild: to let him see and so that the sand didnt get in his eyes))
WolfenNights (8:08:10 PM): T: There's moar.
WolfenNights (8:09:02 PM): T: *morphs fire and shadow together to form a long snakelike monster. he gives it a dragon's head, and white eyes*
WolfenNights (8:09:42 PM): ((the dragon is as long about 20 feet long, and its head is larger than taen))
WolfenNights (8:12:32 PM): T: *the dragon flies around, making a circle around Rain. it twists up, and slams down towards the grim angel*
Etherwinter Rain (8:13:16 PM): R: *draws his sword at an amazing speed, creating a vacuum that sucks everything including the dragon in, and dispells it*
WolfenNights (8:14:25 PM): ((damn, it was supposed to psyche him out and hit him whe he wasn't looking. the he would push againsrt its mouth with his sword))
WolfenNights (8:15:10 PM): ((I'm tempted to have taen summon one of his real dragons, but he isn't to the point yet, cus he still has to fight/meet sileya
WolfenNights (8:15:15 PM): *))
Etherwinter Rain (8:16:10 PM): R: *swings his sword out as if he's cleaning it, his eyes on Taen now that the air is clear*
WolfenNights (8:17:14 PM): ((crap, out of ideas))
Etherwinter Rain (8:17:24 PM): (( XD )
WolfenNights (8:17:49 PM): T: you gonna strike first, or should I?
Etherwinter Rain (8:19:12 PM): R: *shrugs* Isn't the assassin supposed to srike first?
WolfenNights (8:19:34 PM): T: Yes, but you're not my intended target.
WolfenNights (8:19:49 PM): T: I'm just keepin' ya busy while my ladyfriend deals with the king
Etherwinter Rain (8:20:32 PM): R: Oh, so he's already dead?
WolfenNights (8:20:54 PM): T: I'd assume so.
Etherwinter Rain (8:21:35 PM): R: Why are we fighting, then?
WolfenNights (8:21:50 PM): T: XD
WolfenNights (8:22:16 PM): T: I assumed you were going to go after Kariette to stop her from killing the king.
WolfenNights (8:22:41 PM): T: which i why I fought you; so that you didn't go after her.

WolfenNights (8:23:02 PM): T: I guessed that you were quite strong the moment I saw you.
Etherwinter Rain (8:24:57 PM): R: You're strong too. And if the king's dead *sheath's sword* I can't do anything to bring him back. *weapon dissolves into mid air as he turns to walk away* I wasn't cut out to be a bodyguard anyway ^_^
WolfenNights (8:25:16 PM): T: @_@
WolfenNights (8:25:40 PM): T: I thought... Wouldn't a body guard feel more insulted if the person he is guarding is killed?
Etherwinter Rain (8:27:02 PM): (( I have a question: why are they trying to kill the king in the first place, again? x3 ))
WolfenNights (8:27:31 PM): ((cus kariette needed money and taen was caught by a crime syndicate that told him to do it))
Etherwinter Rain (8:27:46 PM): (( oh x3 ))
Etherwinter Rain (8:28:21 PM): R: *Shrugs* I might. You should change your job, though xP Assassination's not your thing. You suck at it.
WolfenNights (8:31:28 PM): T: I know. ;-;
WolfenNights (8:31:44 PM): ((im sending you a convo i had with rob that explained the story i had in mind for this rp))
Etherwinter Rain (8:31:55 PM): R: *chuckles* You're strong, *walking away* Don't know why you're working for that crime syndicate
WolfenNights (8:36:00 PM): T: *looks to the side, distressed*
WolfenNights (8:36:10 PM): T: I didn't have much of a choice
Etherwinter Rain (8:36:21 PM): R: What could they do?
WolfenNights (8:37:14 PM): T: something... bad. something worse than death.
WolfenNights (8:37:27 PM): T: when I fought them initally, they took my dragons away
Etherwinter Rain (8:37:28 PM): R: Well?
Etherwinter Rain (8:37:38 PM): R: You don't need dragons.
WolfenNights (8:38:22 PM): T: you dont understand. i am bound to them mentally and spiritually. i cant use their magic if i dont have these swords on my.
WolfenNights (8:38:46 PM): T: but when I fought them, i still had my swords. and suddenyl, i felt as if... they werent there anymore
WolfenNights (8:39:09 PM): T: it sounds so stupid... that i am so dependenant on them.
Etherwinter Rain (8:39:12 PM): R: You have your swords now
WolfenNights (8:40:00 PM): T: and i had them when i was fighting. even though the blades were right in my hands, i didnt feel them there anymore.
WolfenNights (8:40:17 PM): T: they did something that silenced my mind, and made me emotionless
WolfenNights (8:40:27 PM): T: i didnt feel... anything
WolfenNights (8:40:42 PM): T: then they tied me up, and forced me to kill the king.
Etherwinter Rain (8:40:58 PM): R: *shrugs* Bet they wouldn't mind a surprise attack
WolfenNights (8:41:15 PM): T: they gave me back my swords when I left, and when i touched the handle, i felt the dragons again.
WolfenNights (8:41:37 PM): ((read the pm yet?))
Etherwinter Rain (8:42:12 PM): (( I'm not at zU x3 ))
Etherwinter Rain (8:42:16 PM): (( not yet ))
Etherwinter Rain (8:42:21 PM): R: Where are they?
WolfenNights (8:42:40 PM): T: i dont know. when i left their hideout, they blindfolded me so i couldn't find my way back.
Etherwinter Rain (8:43:50 PM): R: ...*shrugs* I'll guess I'll find them somehow

WolfenNights (8:44:29 PM): T: you will?
WolfenNights (8:44:36 PM): T: what about the king? and kariette?
Etherwinter Rain (8:45:10 PM): R: The king's dead, right? And Kariette's your friend, not mine
WolfenNights (8:45:43 PM): T: but won't the guards come after you? as well as kari and i?
Etherwinter Rain (8:46:15 PM): R: You really don't know who I am, do you?
WolfenNights (8:46:27 PM): T: I suppose I don't, then.
WolfenNights (8:46:34 PM): T: but whatever you do, take me as well.
WolfenNights (8:46:42 PM): T: i don't wanna be left out of the action.
Etherwinter Rain (8:48:33 PM): R: I thought you were scared?
WolfenNights (8:48:58 PM): T: Yes, but I'd rather face them than just send someone else after them.
Etherwinter Rain (8:49:34 PM): R: Okay! ^^ *begins to walk off without saying a thing*
WolfenNights (8:50:08 PM): T: So, where would the king be? *notices thatr Kariette still isn't back yet*
WolfenNights (8:50:19 PM): T: *wonders if Kari is okay*
Etherwinter Rain (8:50:40 PM): R: With the girl Kariette. Or without her, either one.
WolfenNights (8:51:00 PM): T: that is very, very specific.
Etherwinter Rain (8:51:18 PM): R: I know ^^'
WolfenNights (8:51:28 PM): ((XD))
WolfenNights (8:51:54 PM): T: take me to the throne room. she might be there. she hasnt returned yet, so i fear she may be hurt.
Etherwinter Rain (8:52:22 PM): R: Throne room's that way *points to a door* Just keep going straight
WolfenNights (8:52:46 PM): T: okay. so where are you going?
Etherwinter Rain (8:53:24 PM): R: To a place where I can get some answers
WolfenNights (8:53:36 PM): T: O.o?
Sounds cryptic.
WolfenNights (8:53:55 PM): ((is he heading to the crime syndicate?))
Etherwinter Rain (8:53:56 PM): R: Where rumors flow non-stop
Etherwinter Rain (8:54:02 PM): (( XD ))
WolfenNights (8:57:45 PM): T: meaning?
Etherwinter Rain (8:57:52 PM): R: ^____^ A bar.
WolfenNights (8:58:01 PM): T: XDXDXD
WolfenNights (8:58:10 PM): T: you don't seem like the "bar" type,
Etherwinter Rain (8:58:28 PM): R: I'm not. Not really ^^'
WolfenNights (9:03:01 PM): T: i was wondering...
WolfenNights (9:03:08 PM): T: wo0uld you help me out?
Etherwinter Rain (9:03:17 PM): R: With?
WolfenNights (9:03:37 PM): T: the crime syndicate. you said you could find them.
Etherwinter Rain (9:04:03 PM): R: With a little investigation
WolfenNights (9:04:35 PM): T: alright then. but first. *heads to throne room, beckoniung rain with his hand*
WolfenNights (9:04:48 PM): T: I'm not leaving her behind.
Etherwinter Rain (9:04:51 PM): R: You go, I'll wait
